THE COLLEGES.

The colleges are opening for another year,
and there are general reports OF increased at
tendance and record breaking entering classes.
One prominent institution, fearing it would be
sought by more students than its present facil-
ties would enable it properly to care for, in
creased its entrance requirements and estab-
lshed unprecedentedly severe rules of judg-
ment, in spite of which it has registered the
largest freshman class in its history All this
is highly gratifying from several points of
view. 1t is well that the colleges should have
such prosperity as comes with numerous
patronage, and it is well that increasing num-
bers of our youth should seek higher culture
Whether the housemaid should learn Latin and
the ploughman should know Greek may be dis
puted questions, but they are not yet within
the range of practically. The college roll might
be doubled without bringing us dangerously
near overeducation.
A question which does practically come up
with increasing force and pertinency with each
new year, however, is that of the desirable size
of the undergraduate college To it no general
answer has been given, and none apparently
can be deduced at present from a survey OF the
field. American policies vary widely In that as
in other things, and each different policy has !ts
strong advocates and seems able to point to
v1ndcatlon in its results. There are three gen
eral classes. One consists of the old fashioned
small colleges" of which some admirable in
stitutions in New-England and New-York have
long been typical. These have only from one
hundred to three hundred undergraduates each
and an entering class each year Of from fifty to
seventy -fve and as result every student comes
into much personal contact and acquaintance
with the president and the professors and enjoys
their personal influence as well as their long
range instruction. second includes large uni
tn ant
students are numbered by many hundreds and
in some cases by thousands, and where the
single years class is larger than the total at
tendance at small college" In these the ma
jority Of the students know the president and the
chief professors only by distant sight, and are
scarcely more known to them than as though
they had never entered the institutions. Ths
third class consists of few large universities
which divide their undergraduates body into a

1t needs to be understood in Brooklyn as well
in other boroughs of the metropolis that a

phrase the old remark attributed to jealous

that is not the spirit that this city wants to pre-

70 ENFORCE THE DECISION
THE "aEEF TRUST" SHALL
OBEY THE LAW.

Washington, Feb. lit can be
said with authority that unless the
corporations constituting the alleged
beef trust" shall heed the injunction
made permanent by the decision of
the supreme court of the United States
the government will institute proceed
ings against individual members of
the corporation to enforce the decision
Of the court. The proceedings will be
under the criminal law IL such can be
instituted.
The minds of the president and
members of his cabinet are made up
fully on the question. They have de-
termined that the beef trust shall
obey the law and now that the highest
court in the land has upheld the hands
of the administration it is said they
will permit no further "dilly-dallying"-
with the subject.
At the days cabinet meeting the
president and Attorney General Moody
shared in the congratulations of the
members of the cabinet on the result
of the "beef trust" case before the
supreme court. The president, who
made no attempt to conceal his salts
faction at the decision of the court,
united with the members of the cab
met in congratulating the attorney
general.

Don't run to the doctor too often.
The average mistake will give you
less trouble if you come right out and
admit it.
Some people waste a lot Of the pres

they could live their lives over.

together in n team and bad luck and
worthlessness always in another.

If a woman's voice is sweet depends
largely upon whether she is calling us

When a woman reads of a horse

doesn't know exactly what it means.
but she feels that she often does it.

JOHANN H0CH IS REMANDEO
PRISONER ANXIOUS TO RETURN
TO CHICAGO AND FACE THE
CHARGES AGAINST HIM.

New York, Feb. Johann Hoch
Of Chicago, who was arrested here
charged with bigamy and wife aban-
donment after a search extending over
the entire country. told the officials 1t
police headquarters that he is anxious
to return to Chicago at once. He
wanted to face the charges against
him in that city, he said. and has no
intention Of opposing extradftion.
Hoch was photographed for the rogues'
gallery before being taken to court,
When Hoch was arraigned in police
court he was remRnded back to police
headquarters for forty-eight hours. AS
the prisoner was leaving the court
room he said:
Eyes, l am the nan wanted in Chi
cago, but they are mistaken as to the
charges. 1 am wanted for some trou-
BILE had with my s~ister-in-law about
some furniture"
Hoch, who, it is alleged, married
twenty women, was arrested at a
clearinghouse in West Forty-seventh
street by Central Office detectives. He
admitted his identity, although, when
first arrested, he gave the name of
Henry Bartels. Mrs. Catherine Kim
merle, the landlady, said he engaged
board ON Saturday and had not been
in the house twenty minutes when he
asked to be allowed to peel some pota-
toes for her. He proposed marriage
Monday and she then told the police
and his arrest followed.
Relative to stories that Hoch was
thought to have once worked for
Holmes, who operated in Chicago dur
ing the worlds fair and killed dozens
of people to collect their life: insur-
ance, Hoch said:
81 never knew Holmes. He was a
chemist; I'm a machinist." +.

Former Illinois Senator Attacks Re.
publican Leader.

Springfield, ILL.,, Feb. 1.-Senator
Daniel A. Campbell, the Republican
leader in the senate, was struck in the
face by ex-senator Riley in the upper
house of the Illinois legislature imme-
diately after adjournment. Much ex-
citement followed and two of Senator
Campbells colleagues, Mueller and
Brown, and the sergeant-at-arms
reached for Riley and elected him
from the chamber and placed him un-
der arrest.
Senator Campbell said he could give
no reason for the assault.
Riley has had grievances against
Senator Camubell for a number of
years and had threatened to assault
the Cook county member once before.
