Harlan, June 2.-Sheriff D. w. Stew
art, Of this city, lies at the point OF
death at his home in this city from an
attack of appendicitis. He was first
taken sick last Saturday, and Sunday
evening an Omaha specialist was
summoned. He gave it as his opinion
that it was too late to operate success
fully and the patient would have to
fight the disease without an operation
For day or two he seemed to rally
somewhat, but Wednesday evening
became worse and the symptoms are
very alarming at this writing, there
being little, if any. hope of his recov-
cry.
1t was reported here yesterday that
Mr.. Stewards sister. Miss Belle Stew
art, who lives near Portsmouth, was
operated on in ,an Omaha hospital
Wednesday for the same disease with
which he is suffering, the latter hav-
ing had an attack sometime ago ana
for the operation after par
tial recovery.

Male Students Are Defended
by Plea of Larger Out

ABSORBING QUESTION ARGUED
Dean currier, of Iowa State Unlvers-

NO Adequate Basis for Compare.

Iowa City, June 1.-Two thirds OF
the fifteen students of the State Uni
versity of Iowa, who were elected to
membership to Phi Beta Kappa, an
honor fraternity which confers men,
bership upon the fifteen graduates who
have made the highest record thruout
their college career, are women, and
the question that has since attracted
considerable discussion has to deal
with the relative ability Of men and
women students.
On the face of conditions it appears
that in the pursuit of higher educa-
ton the coed has the advantage over
the male student. In Iowa University
less than 40 per cent OF the graduates
this June are women, and yet 60 per
cent Of the Phi Beta Kappa initiates
are of that sex.
Dean Amos N. Currier Of the college
of liberal arts, known to thirty genera
tons of Iowa University students, Is Of
the opinion that appearances work an
injustice to the male student. He be-
lieves that under the present system Of
free electives there is no adequate ba-
sis for comparison. And the reports
of the registrars office seem to bear
out his statement. Very few women
are to be found in the departments Of
economics. sociology and politics,
while they largely dominate the classes
in thu Ia n pr,ro nd ho, nhot hi
larger number OF students in the de-
partment OF history.
In the opinion OF Dean Currier the
women of the university appear to
make the best grades in those SUBJ
jects in which an exact and careful
knowledge Of subject is not only pos
sible, but absolutely necessary. Woms
en- seem to find it easier to apply
themselves to close, careful study and
to the securance of an absolute knowl-
edge OF detail. Many excuses are
urged in defense OF the apparent in
feriority Of male students. The most
probable appears to be the wider range
of outside interests, that serve as a
greater distraction to male students.
The athletic life of the university
proves of far greater interest to men
than to women, and the necessity Of
earning u large part of their expenses
falls with heavier force on the male
students. Very few co-eds attempt to
earn any of their expenses, while in
Iowa university fully 60 per cent of
the male students earn them wholly or
in part. These outside interests are
believed to be the real explanation of
apparent inferiority of male students.

With the commission says the great

FENCES in getting up the questions for

number of men make a business fur
nishing lists of questions to would be

brush up on these these questions and
are then pretty we'll fixed to pass an
examination tho they may know little
about the pharmacy business. The
great task is to get questions that will
not be in these letters and yet will be
practical. There are men in Des
Moines who make business of regu-
larly coaching students so they can
pass the examination. The board will
hold an examination next week. There
will be larger class this time for the
reason that many students who fail to
pass the examination at their colleges
come here to the board examination
in the hope of squeezing thru.

are $3.50. There was hopes on the
part of many people there that the
difference would be more decided. AS
long as there are more than 5000 the
saloons stay. 1t is argued now that
the temperance people are better off
than If it was less than 5000 for the
reason that with figures less than
5000 the petition OF consent might be
circulated thru the county and IL 65
per cent signed 1t saloons could be
run then anywhere in the county.
The temperance people it is under
stood will contest the matter. The ex-
ecutive council 1t is learned will in
such cases receive the aff1davits but
there will be no public hearings on the
matter and the affidavits will not be
