In the olden days, wnen stays were
really torture garments, heavy with
steel and boned most deliberately, the
figure was given an intensely stiff APP
pearance. which was then greatly ad-
mired. Now it must look and feel per-
fectly lissome. No woman would con-

sets of the past. whereas to wear those

cord0va and the yellow Press.

Our esteemed contemporary, the
New Brunswick Home News, is some
\ what amusing in its editorial comment
Bin the manner in which the Cordova
story was handled by the ~so-called
sEellow" press, and the manner in
wihich the Home News, itself, treated
theSstory. After devoting column after
column to the case, printing all the
alleged love letters in full, reproduc-
ing cuts and illustrations of the court
and the principals that it could secure,
the Home News proceeds TO write a
long editorial condemning the "yel-
lowr newspapers for making a sensa-
ton of the elopment and trial and
informing us all that the people are
sick of the whole business. After this,
at least, n would suppose the Home
News would give the subject a rest.
But in Saturdays issue no less than
four first page, top column articles
related to Cordova and inside was the
old familiar picture of the couple
which isbecoming a little the worse for
wear. The editorial on yellow jour
nhlism was made to appear somewhat
ridiculous in the Home News, but it
was used to good advantage by those
half-rate newspapers which had not
enterprise enough to have the trial
reported for them. These sheets quoted
the Home News editorial in full in an
effort to square themselves with their
dissatisfied readers and tried to make
themselves believe that only yellow
journals published the trial.

WHALE HITS WATERsPouT.
Strange Contest Seen BY a Steamer
Crew From Nome.

Tacoma, Wash.-The steamer Elihu
Thomson, which has arrived from
Nome, reports that during the run
through Boring sea there occurred one
incident that was of great interest to
the crew. A storm was in progress
and a waterspout of generous dimen-
sions was observed making its way
across the stormy stretch of sea that
separated the vessel from shore. A
whale, which had been spouting in the
neighborhood, got into intimate re-
lations with the waterspout. The re-
volving pillar on water was a formid-
able proposition to tackle, but so was
the whale, and it was hard to decide
which would come off second best.
The whale stood on end in the mid
die Of the waterspout, but there he
stuck. The force of the whirling
column was not sufficient to lift him
from the water. On the other hand,
with the whale in its clutches. the
waterspout could not maintain an ex-
istence, and, as a result, broke sudden
ly and the immense column OF water
that had been suspended between sky
and sea fell with a crash into the sea
from whence it came.

GIVE CHICAGO POLICE BATTLE.
Class Rush of Dental Students Causes
Riot Call.

Chicago Oct. 26-Twenty-five no.
llcemen and 100 students of the Chi
cago College of Dental Surgery en-
gagged in fierce fight, and before
peace was restored 10 of the students
had been arrested At one point dur.
ing the fight the police were forced to
nre over the heads of the students
to scare them back.
The freshmen and other classes OF
the institution met in their animal
class rush, and the battle became so
desperate that a riot call was sent to
the two police stations in the vicinity.
when the police arrived on the scene.
the battle between the students had
ocen in progress for half an hour and
md blocked all the street cars and
wagon traffic in nearby streets.
The students who were in the thick
CT the fight joined forces as soon as
they saw the approaching patrol
wagons, and the bluecoats were pelted
on all sides with stones and vegetab les
while water was poured on them by
students from the upper floors of the
college.
After this state of affairs had been
gong on for some time and the police
were getting decidedly the worst of
the battle, the bluecoats drew their re-
volvers and fired several shots. This
brought the students to their senses
and they ran in all directions, but the
police succeeded in making Is cap
lures.
All the students bore signs of the
conflict in their rent garments and a
number of them suffered severe cuts
about their heads and faces from the
punishment administered by the po-
lice.
An investigation has been begun by
the faculty, and the ring leaders of
the disturbance will be punished
