A. aud N. Breaks Twenty Years Record
at Corresponding Date.

College Station, Texas, Oct.G3.-
Up to noon Friday there were four
hundred and ninety-fve completed

cultural and Mechanical college.
Five boys matriculated and have
withdrawn, which number deduct
ed from the above gives four hun
bred and ninety students now in

one hundred more than the college

at any other session during the
last twenty years.
To show the great pressure for
admission the president is still in
receipt of letters almost daily from
parents and guardians telling Of
their great desire to get admission
for their sons or wards. One man
writes that he is aware the dormi-
tories are full, but wishes to know
if he may not provide a tent
for the prospective student to live
in and put him in the college that
way. Others wish to know if
there is not some way in which
they may maintain TIE would-be

Good Things-Was Entertained by
President harrington.

Senator Tillman Of South Caro-
lima filled lyceum course engage
ment at College yesterday under
the auspices of the Y. NJ. c. A.
He did not deliver one of his usual
lectures, but made a good practical
talk along certain lines appropri-
ate to the occasion. The speaker
was introduced by Prof. Potts, and
held the undivided attention of
his auditors. Probably the most
important thing in his address,
and a matter patent to all who are
we'll informed on the subject, was
his criticism OF the need of more
room and equipment for the A.
and NJ. College of a great state
like Texas. He said the South
Carolina College was better equip
ped and is building new dormito-
ries TO meet increasing demands
upon it. He said the Texas Col
lege should have and be able 10 ac-
commodate 5000 young men.
The speaker discussed in his in
imitable way morals. ethics, char
acter building and other topics of
equal interest and Importance to
the students of the college, who
comprised to major portion of the
audience. He got after the bache-
lors, and advised the boys to marry
while they are young.
Senator Tillman was entertained
at the home of President Harring-
ton while at the college.

THE BUTTER BILLS.
Two Ways in Which They Can Be
Materially Decreased.

A thrifty housewife declares that
her butter bills have fallen off one
quarter since she began serving her
butter in the form of butterballs.
Apart from the economy of the thing,
there is no question as to the COM
parative daintiness and attractiveness
of serving butter in one wholesale
lump, and in collection of dainty,
symmetrical balls. Abroad, where
fresh, unsalted butter is served as
a matter of course, it generally comes
on the table in a sequence Of little
dabs or long, shallow roll. People
who have acquired the fresh butter
taste find it hard to go back to the
salty product of the American cream
cry, and there is no reason why they
should provided there is some one in
the family with sufficient leisure to
make a little butter two or three
times week. A quart of double
cream will make nearly a pound of
butter, and any child with strength
enough to use rotary beater can
DO the rest.

Witnessed Marriage from Afar.

Getting a man to witness a mar
rage ceremony at long distance by
looking through two windows and
across an area between adjacent
buildings is rather novel way of
obtaining a witness, but it served the
purpose at Portland, Ore, recently
Of legally and securely tying the mat
rimonial knot that made Manuel Pires
and Grace Sophia Schuster one. The
ceremony was performed in the law
office of Justice Waldemar Seton, on
the third floor of the Commercial
building. W. w. Espey, a real estate
agent, was at work at his desk across
the area and Justice Seton asked him
to look across while he made the
couple one. The mother of the bride
was the other witness. When the
knot had been tied Espey noted that
the bridegroom failed to kiss the
bride. Hi, there, young man." he
shouted across the area; you for.
got to kiss the bride" "She won't
hold still long enough" shouted back
the bridegroom. Then Judge Seton
brought the marriage certificate
around to Espey and secured his sig.
nature.
