The officers of the flagship were

As Admiral Thomas came over the

No doubt the younger people pres

ones too, enjoyed the closing part of
the program much better than any
other part. Until the midnight hour
the floor was covered with couples and
as soon as one dance was concluded
others took their places promptly so
that the music did not have much

The convention passed on without

FREIGHT RATE
TO Bt RAISED +!
Entering Wedge for the Increase
in Railroad Rates on All
Food Stvffs.

Washington, D. c., May SIT ap-
pears likely that the anticipated in
crease In railroad freight rates is
about to be made. A few days ago a
member OF the Interstate commerce
commission expressed the opinion
that within three or four months,
unless decided improvement in rail-
way conditions should take place, it
probably would be necessary for the
carriers either to increase freight
rates or to reduce the wages OF their
employees. Personally and officially
tile commissioner deprecated the
taking of either horn OF the dilemma
by the railroads, but he believed it
to be inevitable that one or the other
course would be taken.
Sooner than was expected, action
oktng to an increase In freight
ates has been taken. The railways
of the southeastern territory have
filed with the interstate commerce
commission tariffs effective June /,
increasing their freight rates on
fresh meats materially. The pro-
posed rates will affect all fresh meats
shipped into the southeastern terri.
tory from the north and west.
The increase will amount to from
3 cents to 10 cents per hundred
pounds on all fresh meats. IT is the
first material raise In the rates on
foodstuffs made by tine railroads OF
the country for good many years.
1t will mean much to the consumers
as 1t viii probably result in an in
crease of approximately cent a
pound on low grades of meats and
perhaps as much as cents per pound
on the select cuts.
While the increase to the consumer
in the territory affected by the pro-
posed rates Is noticeable, 1t Is likely
that it IS intended as feeler of pub
lie sentiment with view to making
general raise In all rates onsall COM
modities. 1t is asserted b, tariff ex.
perts of railroads that many of the
commodity rates of American rail-
ways now in force are comparatively
low and it is claimed by some of
those who have studied the situation
that in view of the increased cost of
railway equipment and of railway
employees, it may be necessary to in
crease some OF the freight rates.
This is matter, however, which
the interstate commerce commission
probably will inquire into carefully
to determine whether the rates pro-
posed are in any sense excessive or
unreasonable. The increase of rates
on fresh meats into the southwestern
territory is regarded as the entering
wedge of general increase on all
commodities and the result of the in
quiry into the question raised will be
awaited with interest.

WOMEN IN GERMAN UNIVERSITIES.

From Daily Consular Reports
Consul Thomas II. Norton, writing from Chem

to equal rights with men in the privileges of the
German universities is still from being gener-
ally settled He adds:
The universities in saxony and in the southern
half Of the empire-Bavarla. Baden and Wdrtem-
berg-have all opened their doors 10 female stu
dents and granted them ali academic rights, ma
,.i,,Is,fop graduation etc Others admit them
only as visitors lectures. but refuse 10 them all
other privileges The University OF Berlin has
adopted Il compromise, refusing matriculation 10
women but allowing them attend courses of
s-fdy as visitors. and also. with the approval OF
their instructors 70 present themselves as cand-
dates for the examinations leading 10 the doctor s
degree
During the last winter the twenty-one German
universities enrolled 32J Inatriculated women and

HOW COULD THE GRAND JURORS LAUGH7

The scoundrel came into my shop and asked for

A HOME MADE CRIB.

A sanitary home made crib costing few cents
has also been devised by the association for the
use of tenement house mothers. This crib, how
ever while cheap enough for the poor, is equally
recommended for the wealthy, the hospital stan
believes il is as good a crib can be made, from
the pofnt Of view OF keeping the baby Well Ihls
crib was invented by +. ID. Greene of the associa-
ton and was first used for experimental purposes
in the Junior Sea Breeze Hospital. Last year the
hospital was equipped with regular iron BABY CRIBS
with ordinary mattresses. 1t found that these
mattresses in addition being warm were not
easily kept absolutely clean. AS most OF the cases
in the hospital are those of summer complaint this
was I: serious objection. This year, however, all
the mattresses were thrown out. and at cost of
a few bed the sixty cribs in the hospltal
were equipped with the appliance, which is
made in the following manner
Eight-inch boards, thirty inches long. are fitted
at the head and foot CT each cot. strip OF can
vas with a three-inch hem each side takes the
place of mattress, and is held in position by two
poles or broomstcks which run through the
benmed sides and into holes bored the upper
corner of the head and foot boards thus locking
them into solid frame over the canvas are placed
q rubber sheet. a quilted pad and sheet
The advantage OF the canvas is that the air cir
culatlng beneath It makes II cooler than the usual
mattress. When ii becomes soied the canvas can
be sterilized washed. like ordinary bed clothing
AT the end of the summer If the parent wishes 10
return TO the ordinary mattress, the frame can
