In Gett,sbure College.

GETTYSBURG, Pa, Feb. Two freshmen
of Gettysburg College we're found last night
10 be afflicted with smallpox, and at o'clock
in the morning the Board Of Health put the
entire student body under quarantine.
A large number of men were depuhzed
TO guard the dormitories but before day
break the news had spread among the
students, who became panic-stricken, and
more than hundred managed to escape by
crawling down fire escapes and jumping
from windows.
A crowd Of about eighteen boarded an
early train to Harrisburg but the local
authorities Immediately telegraphed to the
Board OF Health of that place, and when
the refugees reached their destination
they were surrounded by a Gordon Of police,
who hustled them into another car, locked
them in, and several hours later shipped
them back TO Gettysburg.
When this carload Of students, who for
hours had been without food. reached
this place they were in an ugly humor.
They barricaded themselves in the car
and threatened vengeance on the police
If they attempted to take them 20 college.
The officers thought it unwise to use force
80 they laid siege to the car. and after
several hours hunger forced the young
men TO surrender Constables from nearby
townships brought In many refugees This
evening almost all Of the escaped students
have been recaptured.

The steamer struck during thick snow
storm. Orders were at once given to re-
verse the engines, but as tho water was
coming In rapidly It was decided to aban-
don the ship
Two boats put OF containing the crew
and passengers, thirty In all. Ono Was
in charge OF the captain and the other In
charge of tho mate A few seconds after
leaving the ship she was lost In the dark
ness. and the boats were rowed toward
what they thought was the land
The sea was running very high and tho
weather was down to zero. After hours
Of hard work. during which much suffering
was experienced, the mates boat made a
landing In desolate place, miles away
from the nearest telegraph of1oe.
At midnight no news had been received
OF the captains boat. The three passen-
gers, two men and woman. were in the
boat
The wind is blowing hercely on shore to-
night, and 1t is freezing hard There Is
still hope that they are living
Those in tho boat which landed In the
afternoon we're badly frozen. and 80 ex-
hausted that they had TO be hauled out OF
the boat.
There il no doubt that the steamer

There was fuss and good deal Of con-
fusion and many protests, The men who
had been around Mr.. Felix slipped away

stood by him.
Let's go to the telephone and call up
that Western Union man aid see what he
means by this" growled Mr.. Mason.
They did. The shirtsleeve mans voice
was dissolved in tears, almost. He eI-
planned that the first news he had sent was
based on mistake in the colors OF the
jockey on the winning horse. He was
dreadfully sorry. Ho would make It all

Mr.. Mason expostuated with him and at
last broke into tears. They went out to
get witnesses TO their integrity-and he
has not seen them since.
Mr.. MoAdoo said yesterday that Mr.
Felix had explained to the swindlers before
the money was put down that 1t was Dor
rowed and that II by any chance he lost It,
there was nothing left but suicide.
Mr.. McAdoo explained that, inasmuch
"a the whole transaction was an attempt
TO defrsud. he understood that Mr.. Mason
and Mr.. Lawson Greene could not be prose"
cuted by Mr. Felix because Mr.. Felix was
particeps orirninis. Mr. lawson Greene,
calling himself Frederick Williams. was
n arrested and taken to Headquarters on
Monday. Mr.. McAdoo personally under
took the task of trying TO get an incrimi-
mating statement out OF him, but only
ELECTED more tears.
Another prisoner was taken TO Head
quarters, but the police refused to tell
what part he had in the transaction.
At the Wasserman offices IL was said
that inasmuch as the transa action occurred
In a public room after market hours they
felt no responsibility for it. Mr.. McAdoo
exonerated that firm from all suspicion IN
tho swindle.
Detective Sergeant Fogarty took TO
Police Headquarters last night two patrol
wagons loaded with stuff which he said
had been removed from room in the build
ing at p East Twenty-eecond street. There
were roll top desk, several tables, "A

charges Of brutality made by Mrs. j. A.

One cannot reply TO a woman, he said.
There is the natural bitterness which abe

somewhat surprised that such a charge
should be trumped up now by n daughter

Hayes says insulted her mother 80 grossly

door of the cage and threatened to tear me

and read this sentence from letter written
by Mrs. Davis:
