Significant of the American spirit
is the strong tendency away from the
arts and general culture toward the
applied sciences and particularly
some one branch of engineering as
shown in the last four years in the
studies pursued in eighteen of the
leading schools of college grade. Com.
pared with the statistics Of 1900 is
per cent more students matriculated
in the arts and sciences last year
while the increase in the applied sci.
ences was 102 per cent. Were 1t pos
sible to accurately determine the mum.
Der Of male students in the first
division the comparison would be yet
more striking, for practically all the
increase there has been among the
fair sex, while the students of the ap-
piled sciences are Utmost all men.

The Redlngote Revived.

A Russian green redingote which
was one of the prettiest things of the
season was in three-quarter length,
cut perfectly straight and buttoned
single breasted all the way down the
front with big silver buttons. There
was collar Of French red cloth set
in and a vest Of the same red cloth,
no more than two inches wide, Just
enough to make rim of color. This
was to be worn loosely over the navy
blue street suit and the result was
smart, to SO the least. It was more
than smart. It was positively chic.
In deep brown and in leaf green,
and in any other dark color this long
loose style. cut on the military order,
strapped across the back and hanging
straight in front, Is good. And the

China Not Wanted.

Washington. July 10.-Chinas re-
quest to be represented in the Wash
ington conference, on the ground that
she is vitality interested in its proceed"
ings, has been received by the Presi-
dent and informally transmitted to the
belligerents.
Whether the President has received
the formal replies cannot be learned,
but 1t can be stated that. while Russia
is inclined to favor the suggestion,
Japan will not consent to it. Japan al
ready has made public her assurance
that Manchuria is. to be restored to
China. That is one of the principles
for which she says she has been fight
ing.
Japan regards herself as fully capa-
BILE of executing this premise without
the assistance of China. and in view
of China's inability before the war to
cope with Russia in Manchuria, the
Japanese government Is unable to see
what possible service Chinese repre-
sentative would be in the Washington
conference.

Cody Drops Divorce Suit.

Omaha. July lin a cablegram TO
his foster brother and business man
ager, DR.. d. Frank Powell white
Beaver of Cody, Wyoming, received
here yesterday, Col. w. f. Cody CBuf-
falo BID requests that steps be taken
Immediately 20 dismiss the appeal in
his suit for divorce.
Colonel Cody dismisses the appeal
said DIR. Powell. "at the earnest request
of his only living child, the wife of
Lieut.. Clarence Armstrong Stott of
Fort Thomas, Georgia. He does 1t to
please her. and to please her only"
1t is well known to their friends that
no reconciliation has been effected be-
tween the colonel and Mrs. Cody and
that they will not live together again as
husband and wife The dismissal of the
appeal in the divorce suit is not the
result of any change in their relations,
but is the result of the efforts Mrs.
Stott has made to bring her parents
together. Before Colonel Cody's eldest
daughter, Arta. died last year she
pleaded with him not to begin divorce
proceedings, and after the petition
had been filed she begged him to dis
miss the suit. Colonel Cody was deeply
moved, his friends say, by the appeal
of his facorte child. but he was deter
mined to get a divorce if possible and
prosecute the suit. 1t is said that since
then he often has alluded to his daugh-
terS diving request with much feeling
and they suspect that he has more
than once regretted on her account
that he filed the divorce suit.
