Fabritls Given the Limit.


 D Fabritis were heard in police court this morning and in both cases the xtalian received as heayy fine as the court could put upon him.
 The f1rst case called against Fabritis was that of assault and battery upon his little son. On account of the ab- sence of some witnesses this case was continued.
 The second case was that of violat- Ing the liquor laws. The attorney for khe defendant stated to the court that he had examined into the merits of the nase and had advised Fabritis to plead guilty to the charge which the Ital- ian did and threw, himself upon the mercy of the conrt. A fine of s100 or ninety days on the streets was the Bentence.
 me third case against Fabritis was that of violating the Sunday law. The defendant also pleaded guilty to this nharge The attorney for the Italian made an eloquent appeal in behalf of his client and asked the court to tenn per the verdict of justice with mercy.
 In reply to this Mayor, Atkins stated that the defendant had shown no mercy to the mothers of the city in selling beer and whiskey to young boys. That the license sellers of beer nnd whiskey have not violated the Sunday law for several years and that They should have protection. He then sentenced Fabritis to term of ninety days on the streets and ordered that he be clothed in a convict uniform.
 There may be an effort made to get this last verdict, reversed with the un- aerstanding that Fabitis leaves the city Tor good. But his attorney says that such proceedings would be useless, as the man has not enough money to leave the city on.
 There was many tears and much sadness among the family of Fabritis at his fruit store on Broad Street this morning after they had learned the trouble of the husband and father.

NO AID FOR PROFESSORS.
Those an State Universities Stu
Barred from Carnegie Fund.

In response to requests by the officers OF the
National Association Of State Universities Maurice
Hutton. acting president of the University OF TO
rontO, and Professor Henry T. Eddy, dean ~ the
Graduate School University of Minnesota, urging
that the benefits of the Carnegie Foundation pc
extended 10 the universities of the states ana
provinces. President Henry s Pritchett. IN
memorandum submitted with bulletin just issued
on the subject by the Carnegie Foundation TOT
the Advancement Of Teaching. gives reasons why
these universities should not share in the benefits
of the Foundation.
He says that. while it is clear that the teachers
Of the state universities have, teachers, quite as
good claim to a retiring allowance as any other
and that, while it is just desirable that they
should have the benefits Of such a system, yet II
should not be through private fund, but through
an allowance established by the states themselves
IL Is doubtful, he says. whether the intervention
VI d private agency, even II II be natlonal IN IT'S
scope OHerng to all states the benefits OF retlT-
ing allowance for teachers. would not greatly
weaken the sense Of responsibility OF the states
toT educational support.
The real problem of a state university. he says
Is mat OF obtaining the confidence and the ap-
Rteclaton OF the whole people Of the state. With
ms accomplished he thinks all things are possible
including retiring allowances.
he says that the states have not vet failed to
RESPOND 10 any real demand Of the time for higher
educaton. and he believes that those who govern
the state universities appeal with certainty to
the patriotism and intelligence of their states in
tiIS cause, as IN the others which preceded IL.
ne plea that state provides gTudgingly for It's
university Is not he says, in his Judgment. any
reason why the board of which he is president
should 70 to its assistance.
The purpose Of the Carnegie Foundation. he SAYS
Is 70 develop system of retiring allowances in the
hRner institutions of learning in the United States
Canada and Newfoundland in such manner to
teachers.
