III SUSPENDED
STANFORD;
OPEN REVOL r
STUDENTS AT BIG UNIVERSITY
ARE ENRAGED
Committee Accused of FIagrant Dis
examinations - Four Captains of
Athletic Teams Among Those
Dropped from Rolls
Special to The Herald.

Special TO The Herald.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY. March
25-The student body of the university
is in a. state of rebellion tonight over
the final decision of the faculty COM
mittee on student affairs, made public
at noon today.
The committee suspended forty-one
students outright and imposed extra
graduation requirements on over $50
others of so severe a nature as to
amount practically to a suspension The
cases of the twelve students originally
suspended were reconsidered and seven
of them were again dismissed.
Only seniors and juniors were given
the extreme penalty, the loss of uni
versity credits being the punishment
administered to sophomores and fresh
men.
Four captains of athletic teams are
among the suspended, and the varsity
crew disbanded tonight and notified the
University of California that Stanford
would not take part in the annual in
tercollegiate regatta. The track. base
ball and tennis teams may disband to-
morrow. A mass meeting of students
has been called for tomorrow noon.
So strong is the feeling at the univer-
sty that Chairman Clark of the student
affairs committee was Kissed and jeered
at the campus postoffice after the action
of the committee was made known. The
action of the committee in making
gradations of punishment is considered
extremely unfair by the students. San
Francisco alumni have taken a hand
and called a meeting for tomorrow
night after the executive committee of
the alumni association refused to do so.
Among the students suspended are r.
j. Macomber, 90; r. r. Cadwalader,
'O9; o. W. Morgan, 'O9, and G.. d. Hus-
zy, '09, of Los Angeles; Fl. S. Ross, 90
of Pasadena; l.. r. Gay, '0S, of Red
lands; o. F. Dean. '09, of Covina; p,
r. Watson, '09, of San Diego. and w,
H. Richardson, '09, and r. c. Westwick,
'09, of Santa Barbara.

FLEET BAND
MA Y BE BIG
ATTRACTION
OF MUSICIANS
FROM SIXTEEN SHIPS
Sixteen Hundred Patriotic Women
Will Serve the Barbecue Lunch
to the $4,000 Jackies.
South Dakota

A concert by the united bands of Ad-
Is one of the big features planned for
the fleet celebration here. Formerly
only flagships were provided with
bands, but now every battleship has it's
complement of musicians and the ships
of "F'ighting BoL's" fleet are well
equipped. While the aggregate number
of musicians on the whole fleet is not
known, an ensemble of the bands would
make nearly 200 instruments.
Musicians of Los Angeles are devout-
ly wishing that the plan to arrange an
assembly of the bands, probably. at
Chutes park or some other convenient
place, will be adopted by the fleet COM
nittee. Mr.. Flint of the committee on
the entertainment of the enlisted men
has asked that arrangements be made
whereby bands from the fleet may be
utilized. Those who have served in the
navy say this may be e-,sily arranged
by using the musicians for service by
assignment from the ship on days when
they are not on shore leave. The bands
of the navy are not permitted to play
for hire, but the admiral will, i: is be-
lieved, gladly arrange their use so that
the Chutes park shows for the jackies
may always have good music. AS there
are four divisions and four separate
days of shore leave, ana four days en-
tertainment at the Chutes and Agricul-
tural park. the problem will be an easy
one for Admiral Evans to solve. And it
is related that it is customary for Unit
ed States fleets when in port to send
their bands ashore for public concerts,
such duty being enjoyed by the musi
clans. If no arrangement should be
made for the .s of the bands in the
celebration or as an assembled band.
ii is likely each of the admirals would
ask for locations for the bandj to give
concerts.

BURDEN FALLS ON WOMEN.
Darkest Side of Immigrant Life Pictured by
DR.. Blaustein.

A sad picture Of the blighted hopes OF the immi-
grant was presented to the Womans Forum No
% West 44th street. yesterday. by DR. David Blau-
stein and darkest side OF 1t the fate OF the
Immigrant woman. Speaking OF the immigrant from
Eastern Europe DIR. Blaustein said:
He comes TO America to the promised land
expecting that every wrong from which he suf-
fered at home will be rghted and he is disappoint-
ed and disusionIzed. He looks for political free
DOM and finds the boss supreme. He looks for
a free press and finds the yellow press. He looks
for free education, and the public schools make a
gulf between him and his children. The officials
OF the health street cleaning and police depart
rnents who are trying TO enforce laws made for his
protection seem to him the instruments of oppres-
sion He has been taught to respect those In au-
thority ard before election he hears all of
abuse heaped even the head of the Chief Magis-
trste He does not understand the political game
and he believes everything the stump speaker says
Everything in America seems to him q humbug
and no curses the day he came here. L have even
heard Columbus cursed for discovering the New
World.
..Rut the heaviest burden and tragedy uudoubt-
edIy falls upon the She is the neither
milestone She tolls from morning 10 night in her
tenement and never comes in contact with Ameri-
can life Her children go to school and quickly
become Americanized Her husband meets other
men and imbibes at least a few American ideas
He begins perhaps. to think his wife od-fashioned
and then there is tragedy.
II quite agree with DR.. Blaustein." said Miss
Helen Varick Boswell. president of the forum,
..and 7 have long thought that we ought 10 carry
DIR club life into the tenements."
" c.argill of the City Club said that when the
Immigrant settles upon the land the situation of
the woman is quite different. There her position
is Immediately improved But the trouble is. 1t
seams that there Is more land for him to settle
upon.
"Our only hope" he said is in the reclamation
OF arid lands by the government"
Dr. Blausteins remedy for the SORROWS of the
adult immigrant was instructive.
Teach him. he said. that the America of the
sun,s is not the real America"
There is no difficulty about Americanizing the
children 1t seems. They have been assiniated
so thoroughly according to DR.. Baustein that on
the East Side to-day 1t Is no longer possible to
get on without English. foreign customs have dis
appeared and the people no longer like cattle.
Mr. CargiIl recommended access to the land as a
cure for ncendiary ideas in immigrants and told
OF one roaring agitator" who had been converted
into pillar Of society by this means.

Manteo N c. May l5.-Having destroyed their
airship which accidentally wrecked dur
ing the height of their success at Kill Devil Hill.
on the Atlantic coast yesterday afternoon, Will

nauts to-day received at their camp on the
beach the newspaper correspondents who have
been watching from distance their experiments
Of the last ten days. The only vestige of the
airship which the inventors saved was the gaso-
lene engine. The other parts OF the wreck were
cut up into small pieces to make it i'm
possible for their ideas of aerial navigation to
be discovered by others.
The Wright brothers did leave Kill Devil
Hill to-day and may not get away tomorrow,
but will return soon to their home in Dayton,
Ohio. Orville Wright expects to go abroad in
the interest of his invention. while Wilbur
Wright will probably devote his time TO the con-
struction of a aeroplane, which it is ex-
pected will contain improvements over the one
