ship cattle from this country to
market at this time Of year, and
this shipment was noted. The cat

winter, and their owner expected
them to weigh l,5O0 pounds each
at the end Of their journey. The
market is very much better now
than it was last fall, and this no.

cattle men who don't like the usual

HISS PRESIDENT BUTLER.
Columbia Students Vent DispLeasure
at Football AboLshment

One thousand students Kissed President Mich
olas Murray Butler at the interclass cane sprees
held in the gymnasium yesterday afternoon.
The running track about the main floor was
packed with spectators, as was the space about
the contestants. Some one proposed a cheer for
] H Van Amringe. dean of the college. 1t is
known that the dean was about the only mem
Der of the university council who opposed the
abolishing of football and the mention of his
name was greeted with loud cheers. Some one
then said "a cheer for Butler" Loud misses
and groans greeted the mention of the name
and no cheer was given.
Before this the students had been singing the
mart of the Columbia medley which goes:
And up above where all is love the faculty won't
But down below. where all is woe, the faculty
they'll be there.
This they ended with three CO-L-U-M-
RIA,S and then a loud D the faculty"
An incident on the campus yesterday also
showed the feeling of the students. Several
of them went up to the large flagpole which
stands near the window of President Buffers
Office and lowered the flag to halfmast. A
nroctor rushed up and ordered the students TO
renort at the office of the superintendent of
buildings and grounds. The students stood to
one side and jeered the proctor. Superintendent
Goethe sent one of his biggest men TO guard
the flag for the rest of the day.

[By relegrapn to The Tribune. ]

[By Telegraph to The Tribune
Morristown, n. J., Dec. 21.-Richard A. Nc
Curdy, ex-president of the Mutual Life Insur-
ance Company, has transferred all his Morris
town and Morris Plains real estate to his wife.
the transfers going through his son. Robert H.
McCurdy, and by him being transferred to his
mother These transfers include the house in
South-st Morristown, and the country home at
Morris Plains.
The transfers were placed on record in the
County Clerks office to-day, and the amount
given In each of the transfers is 81 and other
valuable considerations. In the transfer of the
Morristown property the deed to Robert H.
McCurdy specifies four lots Franklin-st.
Several weeks ago it was rumored that Mr.
McCurdy had sold his Morris Plains property to
a New-York contractor. but it appears that
the sale TO his The South-st house
cost about 100000. The original contract was
for s260.000, but there were extras Something
over $4,000 spent in bringing old trees and
hedges from the Morris Plains place to the
estate and more than $4,000 was paid for land
scape gardening. The property is said to be
worth at least 100000
Those who know something about the interior
decorations say that it is almost impossible to
estimate the amount of money used in fitting up
the house. Priceless tapestries rugs. paintings
and statuary from all over the world to be
found there. For many years Mr.. McCurdy has
made 1t a business and pleasure to go abroad in
the summer. While there he would pick up
paintings, old china and glassware and other
things which only wealthy man indulge in.
1t was impossible to see Mr.. McCurdy to-day
but Mrs McCurdy over the telephone said:
This is of the public's business 1t is
entirely a family matter, and we have abso-
1uteIy nothing to say to the public in regard to
it. If they don't like it they do the next
best thing"
But said the reporter. you said only a
few days ago that there had been no transfer
1T does not make any difference what said
at that time; it none of your business
then, and it is less of your business now.
Mr. McCurdy was not we'll to-day. A cough
has developed and his physician fears bronchial
trouble This particular reason why 1t
was hoped that Mr. McCurdy could get away
from town before the cold weather sets in. His
coughing fits in this damp weather are severe
and he is much weakened.

ing WITH certain fashions or as the
fulfllment of ascctic vows, can be
carried is explained by Dir. ]. Ranke
of Germany in his anatomical trea-
tise entitled Der Mensch.0 = He
demonstrates that in all lands GER
tain forms Of malpractice have been
INDUCED in. In old Peru, for in
stance, little children were placed
under a head press and their scalps
were shaped oblong. This was espe-
cially the case with the daughters Of
the mobiles and with the members of
the royal families. The climax is
reached, however, in the case Of the
Chinese ascetic who is set apart as
a holy man to serve in the joss
house, who does not perform any
manual labor and permits his finger
nails, with the exception of those on
his index finger, to grow several
inches long. Finally they become
entangled and resemble somewhat
the claws of an old bird.
