ANTI-FLIRTS STIR
GLASGOW STUDENTS
"Moral Vigilance" Of the
New Censor.

London. December U.-The students
of Glasgow University-both boys and
girls-are up in arms against an anti
| flirting campaign waged against them
| by "prudes on the prowL'
The solemn senate of the university
has been panied to observe that when
students of opposite sexes meet their
discourse is not always confined to
mathematical problems, scientific the
cries or the aphorisms of Plato. A
censor of morals has therefore been
appointed-the sternest, most mature
and most forbidding of lady lecturers.
So effective was her moral" vigil
lance that for days none of the boys
dared to speak to girl student on
the University grounds.
At all the universities in the United
Kingdom women are now admitted to
practically all the lectures which are
attended by men, but there has never
been any need of specially appoint
! ed censor to keep watch and ward
over their daily intercourse with each
other.
At Oxford and Cambridge, the lady
undergraduates from Somerville, Lady
Margaret, Girton, Newman, or the
other ladies' colleges are almost in
variably accompanied by chaperon,
who keeps watchful eye on her pu-
pills during the lectures. But at the
non-residential universities the ladies'
have hitherto been regarded as quite
able to take care of themselves.
There have been occasional harm
less fiirtations, I admit, said lady
student at University College, London,
"but on the whole, the men and wo-
men look upon each other merely as
good pals, if they are friendly at all.
\ Under present circumstances
know of no case in which any girl has
had to be taken to task for flirting
say, with the men students. and I do
know of many firm friendships, and
at least two marriages, which have re.
suited from our co-education system

she was to receive the whole of the
income on the same condition, so
that she is now in possession of the
whole of her fathers estate, making
her more than a Millionairess Tin
English money!
In 1906 the Baroness made an un-
successful attempt to have the clause
concerning her obligatory residence
in England set aside. She found this
speculation inconvient, as her hus-
band possessed estates in Germany,
and she wished to reside there
In the following year the Baroness
obtained a separation from her hus-
band on the ground of cruelty and
misconduct, so that now her heart is
not quite so much in Germany as it
was.

How many people are aware that the
marriage OF the Empress Marie Feo-

who Is at present in England visiting
her sister, Queen Alexandra. and who
hopes to make her home in England,
provided one of the most pathetic love
stories in the annals of royalty? asks
a writer. Before the empress. who was
Princess Dagmar of Denmark, mar.
ried Alexander III. she was engaged
to his elder brother, the czarowtz. In
1865 ut Nice the Grand Duke Nicholas
fell from his horse and was so badly
injured that his life was despaired Of.
His fancee hastened TO him and never
left his side till he breathed his last.
The succession TO the throne devolved

peror and empress placed the hand of

cal reasons, this bequest was law TO

DAY OF THE CIRCUS HORSE

IL was n fiery circus horse
That ramped and stamped and nelehed
Till every creature in It's course
Fled. frightened and dismayed.
The chickens on the roadway's edge
Arose and tapped their wings
And, making for the sheltering hedge,
Flew Off nike crazy things.
Nor iron gates nor fences barred
That mettled steeds career.
1t galloped right across our yard
And filled US all with fear.
And when Il tossed its head and ran
Straight through the pantry door
Cook almost dropped her frying pan
Upon the Kitchen floor.
It neighed and pranced and wheeled
about
And scampered Off, but then
We scarcely saw the creature out
When II was i'm again.
And so throughout the liveong day
Through house and yard and street
That charger held its fearsome way
And only stopped to eat.
But when at dusk, a little lame,
1t slowly climbed the stairs.
Behold, a gentle lady came
And made IL say its prayersl
Now. what wondrous change you seel
Sh! Come and take peep.
Here Hes as tame as tame can be,
A little boy asleep.

Odd Duel In Midair.

"For some months past" said New
Jersey lady, II have been finding dead
chickens nearly every day. One day
found thirty with their throats cut,
and the neighbors said It was the work
Of weasel. Yesterday morning | was
taking the chicken census when Il
spiked tailed hawk swooped down and
grabbed something from the ground.
As It rose could see that it wasn't n
chicken. had seen that hawk carry
off chicks on previous visits. This
time the hawk circled above my head
and screamed Justify. She appeared to
he in pain and anxious to get rid Of
her passenger. At last the bird flut-
tered TO the ground dead. Clutched in
its claws was weasel. The hawk
had barred the weasel's heart, but the
plucky little animal had ripped part Of
its opponents wing away. | touched
the weasel with my toe, thinking 1t
was dead With the last gasp it bit
me below the anklew New York

RENTS IN NAPLES.
Landlords Fighting League Of Ten
ants Who Won't Paw,

"I certainly wouldn't care to have
charge OF rental department in Ma
pies II all hear about tenants over in
that part of the world Is true" OBJ
served a real estate man who recently
visited Naples, in Italy.
"From what | hear, the legal means
afforded the landlords OF Naples for
the collection of their rents would
seem rather amusing and n bit exas-
perating If in vogue in this country.
"There Is q league Of tenants who
haven't paid any rent in six months.
There are about 1000 IN the league,
and they adopted the simple plan of
refusing TO pay rent at all unless they
obtained certain reductions that they
asked for, plan something similar to
the one tried out in New York.
"The landlords first attempted evic-
tion, but they failed, as the police de-
clared that they were unable to evict
1000 families who meant fight and ex-
pressed willingness to stand a siege.
| Next the landlords brought suit In the
civil courts. The case coming on for
| trial, the landlords rejoiced when none
OF the 1000 defendants appeared.
| Their joy was not destined TO endure,
! for at the last moment woman de-
| fendant presented herself and an
nounced that she had a defense to the
cause of the action against her. I'm
| der the aw-rather curious one, II
would seem-the woman was given q
month to prepare her defense, and this
| appears TO have held the other 1899
cases in allegiance. At the expiration
| of another month new defendant
| appeared, and the cases were again
| adjourned for thirty days. As at the
latest report there remained some
1895 defendants to report and secure
a postponement, everybody connected
with the numerous suits may we'll be
dead before n hearing is reached. In
the meantime the tenants are paying
no rent. and the landlords are sad

Rutted the locomotiue.

Elephants are one of the perils of
railroad life in Indo-China. The Bang
kok Times says that when the morning
train from Bangkok was near Ban
Klap an elephant walked out of the
jungle on TO the track. The engineer
sounded the whistle but the elephant,
trumpeting loudly, lowered his head
and charged the oncoming train. So
great was the impact that the elephant
was killed on the spot and the engine
derailed and badly damaged. The ele'
plants tusks were snapped off, but
when search was made for them
they could not be found. Some one
had walked off with them.

But ma says "No siree!'
Well sir. the very next day,
We were quarantined and there to
stay.
II was mighty hard at first. all right
To stay at home from morn till
night.
We cleaned the house and raked
and hoed.
And the girls, they read and cooked
and sewed.
The children thought they couldn't
stand 1t,
But they found they could when the
laws demand 1t.
They counted the birds, the stars
and the flowers
And did everything to pass the
hours.
Were we worried bout baby? o my,
no!
Why she wasn't sick Until late
Nhed go
And run and skip as happy and gay
As bird on the wing or kitten at
play,
We sent for the doctor one day to

Wouldn't take back what he said

No more than II she had the worst

well
But he thought ne had medicine
down about pat;
Said he couldn't make n mistake
about that.
Now I've got a notion of my own
That some NJ. D.'s are about as prone
To make a mistake. now and then
