To be senior and take the taunts
OF the lower classmen and to be
roughhoused in class is not all roses,
neither is It all sunshine to be a

and have ink sprlnkled on your Wis

II has been set forth that on Sat

first class, and Junior Mckinney,
party OF the second class. both be-
ing in good standing in the medical

class spirit, met in the hall or dis

out justice, each according to his
own Interpretation and for a time
without seconds.
In the first round both rushed,
the representative of the second
class swinging his right upper ex-

name ducked and countered with a
terrific smash on Mes levator Iabi

the crimson liquid burst forth like

smitten junior soon retaliated with
an upper cut on the obicularis orr
and followed with one on the cheek,
which made vertical incision from
which the red flood poured down
over his clean collar into his boots.
The representative OF the first class
then got In some smashes which
made the palperbral muscles OF his
adversary contract and dim his Wis

blood was spilled In profusion until
some OF the other wielders OF the
knife held a consultation and decid-

equal courage and were qualified to
take the next degree in their classes
with cum magma lauda. A post-mor-

TEST RIDE CAUSED DEATH
Col. Walker Made Exertion That
Stopped Els Heart.

BOSTON, November 4.--That the death
of Col. Leverett H. Walker, United
States Army, commander of the coast
defenses in the vicinity of Boston, was
due to the fifteen-mile horseback test
ride ordered by President Roosevelt,
which Col. Walker made at Fort Etha n
Allan. Vt. was the declaration yesterday
of DIR. Ben H. Metcalf of Winthrop, who
was called In to attend Col. Walker last
Tuesday night He was called too late
to save Col. Walkers life.
col. Walker had been suffering from
heart trouble, for six years. said Dr.
Metcalf. THE medical board knew this
and they should have forbidden him to
take the ride. 1t undoubtedly FASTENED
his death.
When Col. Walker returned from Yer
mont he took up his duties again. He
was taken Ill Monday night. Tuesday
night he died of Inflammation of the
valves Of the heart
1t is known that the reason Col. Wal
ker did not ask to be excused from the
ride was the fear that he would be re-
tired. Col. Walker was a heavy man,
weighing 30 pounds. The record Of
death at Winthrop shows heart failure as
the cause of death. This comedies with
Dr. Metcalfs statement. AT the fort the
army death return gives ptomaine pois-
oninR as the cause of death. DR.. Metcalf
declares there was not the slightest evil
dence of poisoning
