East Cottage Condemned and West to
be Used as Hospital.
Special to Times Republican.
Ames, July 1--One Of the time hon
ored and loved customs of the stu
dents of the. colleges is now ended at
Iowa State College by an action taken
by the board of trustees. Never since
the school began its existence in 1868
has there been a time when there has
not been some sort OF dorplitories for
both boys and girls, but yesterdays
action of the board in condenrning the
east cottage and granting the west
cottage to the sanitary department for
the dor1nitory life Of the male students
at Iowa State college. Margaret hall,
where the young women room and live
together, will be used for that pur-
pose, and in the near future additions
will be built to that bulldog to accom-
modate the ever increasing volume of
girls, but the boys have had their last
revel in college dormitores.
The first fire of the "old MAN."
sacred to many old students. which oc-
CURED Dec 90, 1900, started the elm
nation Of the mems dormitories. Look
ing backward it now seems as tho
the elimination had been painfully rap
i'd. "Old main" was visited again by
a fine and the remainder of the build
ing put beyond use Aug. 5, 1909. This
left only the two cottages, each room
ing some forty or sixty male students.
They have remained the coveted goal
Of foot ball. senior and upperclass stu
dents ever since, but now that time has
passed.
The east cottage. which has been the
home of the athletic boys for the past
four years, has been source of great
expense and has been condemned as
unfit for further repairs, the cost
thereof being too great for the condi-
ton of the building. So it is that the
board yesterday voted to have it torn
down at once and cleared away One
other deciding influence in this mat
ter was it's close proximity to the new
Y. NJ G. a. building and alumni hall.
It now is an eyesore.
Last week the board upon receiving
in the building committee the report OF
DR.. w. E. Hartman began, after be-
ing once more reminded of the terrible
condition Of their sanitary department,
looking about for place where they
might place their hospital. After con-
siderable discussion it was decided to
remodel the west cottage for this pur-
pose and give the hospital the entire
building for its use. The men who at
tended college here during the last ten
years would be lost in a maze of in
struction buildings on the same ground
where their dormitories used to stand
were they to visit the institution.
Fraternity houses, club houses. pri-
vate houses and student owned houses
both in Ames proper and at the coll
5lege and vicinity now make up the
habitations of the 1000 students who
attend I. S. C. which number bids fair
to near 1000 next year. Many a stu
dent who left school this spring ex-
'pecting to return to his room in one OF
the cottages will receive a cold idis-
appointing note in the near future stat
ing that the dormitory custom has been
ended and rooms will have to be pro-
cured elsewhere.

injuries of one of the men are re-
garded as of a serious nature. Lit
tie direct information could be se-
cured from the men. According to-
the best authority it appears they and
others were employed by one Of the
contractors at Dilworth. Last night
a number OF them were in a box car.
when 1t appears one of them ran
amuck He began to shoot and use
stiletto. He soon found two victims.
They were placed on a light engine
and doctor In Moorhead was called
up and asked to meet the men at
the depot. He did so, but the train
flashed through to Fargo, where DR.
Mallarian was summoned and the
Injured men taken to ST Johns.
Dr. Mallarian found that one OF
the men had been shot through the
left arm and the bullet had been en-
bedded IN the body 50 deeply that tt
has not been extracted. The man
had also been stabbed back Of the.
