|" HE king of Spain is TO be mar
ried. Perhaps several thousand
columns too much of gush have
been printed about the affair,
yet it Is not without interest. The i'm
portance of the event does not inhere
In the young man himself, who seems
ordinary enough, but in his position
and In what he stands for. Nearly
everybody gets married at least once,
and nothing much is said about the
matter, but everybody Is not the SYM
Dol of a nation. Alfonso de Bourbon
as an individual Is youth of fair edu-
and Of quite few very human i'm
pulses withal. but Alfonso Kill. king
of Spain and with a formidable array
of other more or less moribund titles.
Is quite another thing. He is the rep
resentative Of some millions of human
beings, and 1t is on their account that
we consider him. Human brotherhood
Is about the most conspicuous and i'm
portant fact In this our age, and 1t Is
because of our kindred feeling to the
people of Spain, good and kindly for
the most part, that we take cognizance
of him who is their emblem. Person
ally most of us would prefer that the
king business were ended everywhere,
but each realm to its own taste.
Democracy to Conquer Nations.
Alfonso is the only Bourbon occupy
ing a throne In Europe. France got
rid of that tribe some time ago. 1t
was not the family, however, against
which France was rebelling, but the
whole monarchist regime She was no
more happy under Louis Philippe or
Napoleon the Little than she had been
under the old dynasty. What she want
ed was a republic, and she got it.
When people make UP their minds
to have new deal in government they
generally manage to have their way.
1t is about time for another revolution
of the wheel in the direction of re-
publlcanism, and when it comes there
will be several more thrones go down
into the dust heap.
There are signs of that sort in Rus
STA even now. Liberty does not go
backward. Man is to come to his own
and is to govern himself In all climes.
Democracy, not only in politics, but in
industry, is to conquer the nations.
The world is to be republican. Tradi-
tons, forms, institutions and all else
that stand in the way Of individual
evolution and social brotherhood must
give way before the onward march of
man. This will be true In Spain, let
us believe, as it will be everywhere
else. In the meantime, however, we
must have Alfonsos, and these Alton
sos will give and be given in marriage.
Let 1t be said to the credit of the
present occupant of the Spanish throne
that he seems to be very much of hui
man being. He has red blood In his
veins, which, after all. is the only sort
of blood worth artery room In the hui
man system. There Is tradition, II
Is true, about sort Of blood called
blue" which must gain its color from
anaemia-at any rate. 1t Is not much
esteemed by the twentieth century man
and woman. The good old fashioned
kind of life fluid that is pumped by

Stimulation w;tnou. Irritation

In case of stomach and liver the proper
treatment is to stimulate these organs
without irritating them. Orino Laxative
Fruit Syrup aids digestion and stimulates
the liver and bowels without irritating

are not surpassed. The microscopes
are of the highest grade of American
and German manufacture. DR.. Stookey,
recently from the east, on a visit to
the university said that he had found
nothing to equal the equipment in
America or Europe. The entire second
floor of the new north wing Is devoted
to biological laboratories and lecture
rooms and so planned that each student
has an abundance Of light.
over 1000 students can be accommo-
dated In the different departments. and
when seen yesterday President Bovard
said that when the enrolment reached
that number provisions would be made
for sOOO stating that the u. S. G. Is pre-
pared to keep abreast with the growth
Of the city, with which II has been so
intimately connected.

continues to grow, will be a far-reach-
ing educational center, where the young
of all denominations will find a well
come.
That Southern California is bound to
be an educational center, by climate
and conditions, is a recognized factor,
which has only been emphasized by the
recent disaster to the northern uni
versities.
Advancement Rapid
Marked advancement has been made
by the University of Southern Cali
fornia, or the u. S. c., as it is familarly
known, during the past year, over $780,
600 having been expended on the col
lege of liberal arts alone at West
Thirty-sixth street and Wesley avenue
A $4,000 library for the medical school
on Buena Vista street the gift of Dr.
Jarvis Barlow, is under construction.
A new clinical building, costing 100000
has recently been completed, while the
college of dentistry Is now occupying
it's new $4,000 building at the corner
of Fifth and Wall streets. The college
of fine arts at Garvanza has recently
completed a new building at great
cost, which doubles the capacity of the
art branch. These improvements alone
show the advancement made by the in
stitution which do not include thou
sands of dollars expended I'm libraries,
equipments and many necessary modern
improvements. which make 1t a lead
ing institution in all its affiliated
colleges.
During the past five years the en-
rollment of the college has increased
from 52i to 1875. the present enrolment

Growth Of Million Dollar Fund

Back in the latter part of the sew
enties the Methodists of Southern CAL
ifornia, realizing that one day Los
Angeles would be a great city, started
the movement of a Methodist institu-
ton of learning, which has grown and
gradually increased to an extent real
lied by few even of the older citizens,
until today it is one of the leading in
stitutions of learning on the Pacific
versity of Southern California, which
has reached out into the different sec
tions of the city with it's affiliated col
leges, covers one of the largest scopes
of learning to be found in one institu-
tion in this country, and as the city

and you know we Methodists never
stop. When these buildings are filled
with such bright students as we have
row we shall have more and larger
buildings. The u. S. G. will keep up
with the city and state, no matter how
fast they grow. You can depend on
that"
Aside from the educational stand
point the U. S, C. is very popular for
it's moral training. Chapel exercises
are held daily and many of the students
are members of the Y. M. c. A. and Y.
w. c.. A. There are no creed lines in
the institution, where all denomina-
tions may be found.
Many of the young men students are
planning to enter the ministry or mis-
sionary field for which they are receiv-
ing special training. Also several of
the young women are preparing for
deaconess work
Among the social features of the in
stitution are the Aristotelian Literary
society for the young men and the
Athena and Clionian societies for the
young women, all OF which have nicely
furnished halls In the college Of liberal
arts wherein they hold their meetings,
Debates are often held in these halls.
Proud of EIoquenee
A record of which the students and
faculty are justly proud are the nine
oratorical victories out of fifteen ora ?
torical contests with other colleges.
President Bovard. as dean of the
college Of liberal arts, has charge of
the main buildings, which include a
preparatory and high school course.

The Fate Of a Mormon
Preacher---Meets Death in
his Pulpit.

Carson, Iowa, March 25.--
Special 10 News and Courier -
While in the midst of his SER
mon this morning, the Rev. John
B. Lentz, Mormon preacher,
was struck dead by lightning
and fell from his pulpit dead.
Just before the bolt struck him
he said: "An unseen power is
reaching out to draw me in"
Mr.. Lentz had preached sem
sational sermon on "Character
Building" While the services
were in progress the first thunder
storm of the season came up and
the minister started to dismiss
the congregation before the rain
fell.
He was entreated to continue,
however, and did so.
He was quoting the words of a
young man, who, speaking of
passing saloon, had said "An
unseen power is reaching out to
draw men in" when there was
a crash and binding flash.
A ball of fire fell from the
ceiling Immediately above pulpit
and struck the minister, who fell
for ward from the platform to the
floor. He died instantly. No
eletric shock was felt by the con-
gregation, and an examination of
the church failed TO show any
damage whatever.

Shocking Tragedy.
A Young Man Kills Another
at a Party in Lee County
AN Insult to a Young
Lady Said to Have been
Cause of Trouble.
Special to The State.


Bishopville, March 24.-Last
night at the home of Mr.. w. F.
Outlaw of the Henriott section,
Lee county, Mr.. Grover Mathis
shot and instantly killed Mr.. j.
B. Gay lord, both young men of
that section.
From information received il
seems that there was a party at
the house of Mr.. Outlaw. Mr.. J.
B. Gaylord escorted Miss Alma
Coughman to the party. While
the pleasures Of the evening
were in progress and everybody
was apparently happy, Mr.. Gro
yer Mathis was taking a prone
made with Miss Coughman, when
out of doors Mathis attempted to
take Liberties with the young
lady. She resisted this attempt
and quietly rebuked him. He
persisted and again annoyed her.
She then left him and went back
into the house crying. Mr.. Gay
lord, her escort, and to whom it
is said she was engaged to be
married, begged the young lady
to tell him the cause of her trou.
nie. AT first she declioed to tell
him, but finally informed her
sweetheart that Mathis had per.
sistentIy tried TO take liberties
with her.
AT an opportune time Gay
lord took Mathis out into the
hall for an interview. After ask
ing Mathis why he had treated
the young lady so ungentleman.
ly, hot words brought on an alter
cation. There are several reports
as 10 how the fight started and
how the shooting was done, none
of which are positive, as this
correspondent has not been able
10 interview any eye witnesses.
From reports, it seems that Cav
lord had knife and Mathis had
pistol. When the fight was
over Gaylord was MORALLY
wounded and lived but a few
minutes, and Mathis had one Or
two stabs in his shoulder. Mathis
claims to have acted in self-de-
fense. The reports are conflicting
on this point, however, some
lalming that there was no nee
esslty or excuse for the killing
these opinions being hased on
what they have gathered from
the report.
