Oil Trust Begins Defense.

Oil Trust Begins Defense.
Before Special Referee Ferris in the
new custom house at New York, May
suit to dissolve the Standard Oil com
pany was resumed, with Lawyer Kel-
logg representing the government and
Moritz Rosenthal of Chicago appearing
to open the defense. The examination
Of @. G. Steinbrenner of the Galena
Oil company brought out the fact that
the lubricating oil sold to the railroads
was quoted to the Pennsylvania at a
much lower rate than to other lines.
In fact, the Standard admitted that in
some cases it sold the lubricant at a
loss, but kellogg found this was coun-
terbalanced by the higher rates
charged to other roads. The witness
had vague idea that the losing con-
tracts were in return for the advertis-
ing advantage of having the lubricant
in use, but he denied that there was
collision.
Hearst Gains IN Recount.
Justice Lambert in the New York
city supreme court having overruled
all the objections of Mayor Mcclellan
to the recount Of the last mayoralty
votes, several of the ballot boxes were
produced in court and the counting of
the ballots was begun. Each ballot
was passed upon by the opposing coun-
sci, and il they could not agree on the
marking it was at once referred to the
Judge. This resulted in gains for Hearst
In the first two boxes.
Papers In the New Haven Suit.
President futile of the Boston and
Maine accepted service of the govern
ment's officer In the suit brought by
Attorney General Bonaparte to prevent
the merging Of his company with that
Of the New York, New Haven and
Hartford. This action of the federal
authorities came as surprise to those
who had counted on the known per-
sonal relations between President
Roosevelt and the New Haven head,
Mellen, to prevent interference. The
report circulated at Washington to the
effect that Bonaparte had acted with
out the approval Of the president and
that the latter had countermanded the
order at first, but had given In only
when the news had leaked out, was en-
phatically denied by the president. BY
all friends of the administration the
suit is regarded as complete refuta-
ton Of the criticisms rejecting upon
the good faith of the president in let
ting the law take its course.
Evelyn Thaw Provided FOR.
Judge Morschauser at Poughkeepsie,
N. Y, dismissed the writ of habeas
corpus obtained by Harry X. Thaw
and announced that he regarded him
as still insane and therefore could not
authorize his release from the Mattea-
wan Asylum For the Criminal Insane.
In view OF this decision and the deci-
sion arrived at by Thaw's mother to
allow his wife $1,000 month the

University Opposes Bawden.


Professor Henry H. Bawden has now
been dismissed from the chair of phi
losophy in the University of Cincinnati
by the trustees, he having refused to
resign on the request of President Dab
ney for the stated reason that the pro.
fessor held radical and subversive
views on the subject of matrimony. A
statement issued by the trustees as.
serts that Bawden came to Cincinnati
under false pretenses, as he had been
dismissed from Vassar on the same
grounds, that "his manner of life as
well as his teachings is destructive of
the family, the foundation of human
society," and that he had carried out
his threat of making public his views
ito the scandal Of the university and
the violation of public decency and
good morals" Replying to this mani
festo, Professor Bawden defies the
trustees to prove that he taught any
thing destructive to the family and
that his private views on marriage had
never been mentioned to his classes.
The substance of his views is that free
comradeship and not sexual love forms
the true basis of spiritual and intellec-
tual association between men and wo-
men. Mrs. Bawden disapproves Of all
this, but does not charge that the pro-
fessor is unfaithful in any gross way.

Viper Venom Supply Renewed.
To replenish the worlds almost ex-
hausted supply of the homeopathic
medicine based ON the venom of the
lancehead viper of Brazil, most deadly
of snake poisons, DR.. &. w. Runyon Of
New York, with the assistance of the
curator of the Bronx zoo, has per-
formed the operation of extracting
about eighteen grains of the venom
of lancehead recently imported from
it's native haunts. This new supply is
said to be the first to be obtain y since
DR., Herring, a German scientist, acct
dentally discovered the uses of the
venom while in Brazil eighty years ago
and obtained the first supply from one
of the snakes. In greatly reduced
form the substance is used in the
treatment of diphtheria, insanity and
several nervous diseases. The present
supply is expected to last fifty years.
1t is diluted with sugar, salt and milk.
The process of extraction is fraught
with no little danger, as the snake had
to be held in the hands of the oper-
ators while its head was directed to-
ward cup covered with gauze so that
when it struck the drops of venom
would drop into the cup. Also the
glands were pressed, as in the process
of milking COW, to increase the flow.

ton in restraint of trade but did find
that increased costs in production had
entered largely into the advance of
prices. They think removal of the
tariff would result in the destruction
of the forests, dismantling of our pa
per mills and higher prices of paper
instead of lower. On the other hand,
the minority say that ''the tariff plus
the tariff engendered combinations"
does account for all of the advance in

your perspective. 1t is pity that SO
much called reality selects disease in
stead of health to depict.
In further way art interprets the
spirit Of man. Shakespeare made no
two characters speak alike. He took
them as they are in the world and
made them speak what they would If
they could say what they meant and
say it perfectly. All art does that,
We see because the artist saw nature
through the spectrum Of his apprecia-
Etion.
Another way arts interprets, as well
as expresses, is by carrying the laws OF
life, full circle to the end. The artist
has the prophetic spirit. Every life is
broken Off short, bnt the artist finds
the way through. Then the artist
gives the atmosphere, the best of the
elements of idealization. II art is to
deal with any particular fragment he
has to do it in true relation with the
whole.
Art is wonderfully clarifying, and
brings growth in the power to do, and
see. and look into the power of Others.
With Michael Angelo and Dante it
was art for life's sake; so is it with
the great of the earth everywhere.
The great motive is to live, not to
make living. The day is not far dis
tant in public education when there
will be periods when the pupils will
merely listen to beautiful music, and
the time SO spent will not be lost.
They will save time by the exaltation
of their spirits. Through the masters
we come 10 look through the common
heart.
So he said to the graduates to take
art for life's sake; to bring into their
lives the multitude OF beauty so that
art shall fulfill its functions. Wisdom
means to meet life steadily and to see
wholly. Virtue is much the same,
and he closed by hoping that wisdom
and virtue would dignity the life they
enter upon.
The piano solo, Berceuse, was rend-
cred by Miss Capstick, who responded
with an encore to the applause of the
audience.
DR.. Erdman in presenting the di-
plomas said he sincerely appreciated
the part assigned him, especially as he
understood it was at the suggestion
of the graduates. He little thought
when he severed his connection with
the school that he would have this
privilege. He was deeply sensible that
the commencement was held under
the shadow of agreat sorrow. We miss
the one who never failed to give grace
and dignity to the occasion, but are
happy in the thought that her wish
and plans are being fulfilled. She
would regret any cloud to mar to oc-
casion.
We cannot but realize that it is the
ending of school days and the parting
is attended by sacred memories under
the guise of a benediction.
