President Angel Made FruitIess At
tempt to Have Students Disperse.

Ann Arbor, Mich, March H.
Angered by the assault made on STU
dent in the Star theater, Saturday
night by Special Oficer Schlimmer,
1000 students last night besieged the
little playhouse on Washington street
and proceeded TO demolish II with
brickbats and rocks. The police, after
futilely trying to cope with the riotu-
GUS crowd, called on the fire depart
ment to turn the hose on the stubborn
collegians.
Some one threw a brick through the
front window of the theater, which
was the signal for a volley OF rocks
and other missiles from the Infatuated
collegians. The police then summoned
the fire department. The crowd scat
tered in a trice. so that when the fire
men coupled on their hose there was
no group of more than four or FIVE
to play on. Suddenly, there was
swift rush of students toward the
hydrant to which the hose was
coupled. The firemen endeavored to
protect their apparatus, but were
brushed lightly aside. The hose was
disconnected and spirited away.
The word then flew from lip TO ZIP
that kilograms had been sent to the
governor, asking him to empower the
state militia to move out against the
crowd. That Quoted the tumult for
the time being; but soon the uproar
began with renewed ferocity. AT he
height of the ruction, the shout OF
"Prexy" arose An alley was made
through the crowd, and down 1t
walked the straight, dignified figure OF
the aged head of the university. With
Dean Harry B. Hutchins Of the college
OF law at his side, he stopped In the
doorway OF the shattered theater and
began to address the students. He
called on them to dispense, and he
appealed to their respect for the uni
versity to move them in the right d.
rection.
His Words Unheeded.
But his words went unheeded. II
was the first time in years that he
was disobeyed. And, seeing It was
useless, President Angel and Dean
Hutchins went away. Up to this
time. twelve arrests had been made.
At late hour, Chief of Police APP
Eel addressed the students, telling
them that If they would go in peace
ne would do all he could to effect the
release of all students arrested. This
served to quiet the boys for time.
But the riot again broke out afresh,
and the students smashed everything
they could get their hands on.
The bugler blew assembly in the
armory. and the members of Co. l.,
M N. G., gathered from all directions
shortly before midnight. Inundated
by the sound Of the call to arms for
the militia, the students dispersed.
Those arrested will be tried in police
court as disorderlies. There were
twenty-five OF them.

Submeruence.

At the close of one of the recent
Chapman-AleXander revival services in
Philadelphia the minister of a certain
church went down the aisle, according
to his custom, to greet the strangers
in the congregation. 4 don't think

POSTAGE STAMPS.
Waste and careIessness That Enrich
Uncle Sam.

IF we waste other things the way
we do stamps said a stamp clerk the
other day, 1--WE Americans are just
about the most wasteful people on the
face of the earth.
Uncle Sam is much more than half
million dollars in pocket every year
as result of carelessness in the use of
stamps. The government never loses
anything by such carelessness and al
ways gains.
How many stamps do you put loose
in drawer of your desk or in a corner
of your pocketbook and never think of
again until you come across them, aged
and torn, while rummaging about
months later? Then they are tossed
into the wastebaSket.
Lots of people are careless about
putting stamps on envelopes and paper
wrappers. The result is that often be-
fore the stamp has been Cancelled it has
fallen off and the letter is held up at
the other end of the line until postage
is paid.
"A great many more folks put on too
much postage. They slap on two or
three stamps to a package that requires
only one. They are too busy or too in
dolent to take the trouble to have the
package weighed and find out how
much postage the package requires.
If too little postage is put on a let
ter, Uncle Sam simply holds it up at
the other end until the postage due has
been paid. But if too much is put on.
Uncle Sam simply pockets the excess
to which he is not entitled and says
nothing. Chicago Tribune.

Boiling Water.

To boil water would seem to be g
very simple thing and yet the late
Charles Delmonico used to say that
very few people know how to do it
The secret is in putting good fresh wa
ter into a kettle, already quite warm
setting the water to boiling quickly
and then taking it right off for use
in tea, coffee or other drinks before 1t
is spoiled. To let 1t steam and sim
mer and evaporate until the good wa
ter is in the atmosphere and only the
lime and iron and dregs left in the ket-
tie is what makes a great many people
sick, and it is worse than no water at
all. For water boiled like this and
favored with a few drops of lemon
juice Mr.. Delmonico used to charge as
much as for his best liquors, and he
often recommended it to his customers
and friends who complained of loss of
appetite. 1t is worth trying.

A Call to Our Catholic Societies.

The Catholic Telegraph of Cincinnati
the oldest Catholic paper in the coun-
try, and of which DR.. Thomas P. Hart
| is editor, publishes the following Cal
to Our Catholic Societies."
At the institute of the teaching sis
| tiers of his diocese, held in Santa Mon
| lea, Cal, the Right Rev Bishop Conaty
| in discussing paper on "Civics,' read
! by Miss Elizabeth Sullivan, spoke
strongly against the Buster Brown
| literature and other Sunday supplement
reading, declaring that they tend to
develop irreverence and disrespect for
authority. All of which is very true,
and yet we do not find in the report of
the proceedings of the institute that
the bishop or any of those addressing
the teachers of the parochial schools
said one word favoring the Catholic
press and Catholic literature, which are
the only antidotes for the poison ad-
ministered by the daily press and secu-
lar literature. Certain it is that, in the
convention of the Catholic Educational
association held recently in Cincinnati,
while many topics bearing on the moral
instruction of the child were considered,
the influence of the Catholic press was
neglected. Were one captious, one
might regard the neglect as deliberate,
for in papers and discussions where
the wrong done to the young MIND by
the bigotry or ignorance of non-Cath-
Ollie writer's was deplored, Of the rem
edy that would noturally suggest itself
no mention was made.
This utter indifference toward the
Catholic press by those who should be
its staunchest supporters is one of the
deplorable signs of the times. 1t is
the strong man neglecting to lock his
house against his enemies. We may
see our schools, academies and colleges
all that we most ardently hope them
to be. and a chain of universities en-
circling the land, and yet must they
fail in the accomplishment Of their
