Pres. WInsIow Of Trustees.
Students, in View Of His Decision,
Vote to Resume Studies.

Orono, Me, Oct. 21.-(SpeciaD.-The
committee of alumni of the University
Of Maine, which held lengthy con-
sultation with President e. b.. Wins
low of the Board of Trustees at Port
land yesterday made report to the
student body this afternoon and upon
the urgent advice of each member OF
the committee in consideration OF the
stand taken by President Winslow,
the students voted to return I'D thelI
studies tomorrow The conference be-
tween the alumni and President Wins
low proved that the statement which
the latter authorized President Fellows
to issue Monday was made under a
misconception of the seriousness of the
situation and without knowledge of
the students side of the case.
The mass meeting was held in the
Orono Town hall. The report of the
alumni was made by Hon. w. K. Pat
tangall, who clearly explained the
work that the committee had accom-
plished at Portland. He said that Pres

the eight men suspended for hazing, to
be held at an early date and that these
students would have an opportunity tc
lay all their evidence before the board
and also be represented by counsel. He
urged the students to discontinue their
strike in consideration of the fact
that this rehearing had been granted
even though the suspended men should
not be temporarily reinstated pending
the Investigation.
Joseph Gould of Old Town, president
of the General Alumni Association, also
made warm appeal to the students
to return to college, since they could
gain nothing by staying out longer
and there was no further move which
the alumni could make. He offered tc
take up the case of the suspended stu
dents. His appeal was supported by
other members of the committee and
the student body Influenced by the
arguments which were made and by
the way in which the alumni have
worked in their behalf, decided unant-
mOuSly to return to classes tomorrow
The meeting closed with a great out
burst of enthusiasm.

Mrs. Knoth was taken i'll the day
before Thanksgiving, but her con-
dition was not at any time consider
ed serious. Tuesday afternoon DR..
Abbott had her removed to the hos
pital at the request of Mr.. Knoth.
In the death of Mrs. Knoth, Nc
Gill has lost a true and noble
woman, loved by all who were
fortunate enough to be numbered
among her acquaintance. She was
possessed with a character rarely
seen, always ready to lend a helping
hand; never shrinking from pre-
forming a kind act when the oppor-
tunity presented itself.
Although Mrs. Knoth had lived in
McGill but a comparatively. short
time she had made many friends,
all of who will be shocked to hear
of her death.
The people of McGill and Copper

to Mr.. Knoth in this hour of sadness.

names of si%xty-three petitioners,
proceeded to the formal organization
of the church, which was given the
name of Grace Presbyterian church,
of McGill, Whirt Pine county, Ne

Walker Scores
One on His
Breakfast

Charles A. Walker, the attorney,
was presented with three beautiful
specimens of possum from President
Taft, whom he helped to elect to
office. He voted for him anyhow.
The possum arrived night before
last and Mr.. Walker stored them in
an Clubhouse, and then went to bed
to dream of a gala breakfast. He
dreamed all right and awoke in a
fright, for he dreamed that one of
the possum had broken away and
had crawled into his bed, and
had got his tail around his neck and
was having him for breakfast in
stead of Walker having the possum.
The lights were dancing, the electric
bells were buzzing, and there was a
clatter in the clubhouse like a house
falling down.
Walker jumped out into the mid
die of the floor, and it was cold, but
he is brave, and out into the out
house he sped and turned up the
light. There in the middle of the
room was one of the possum hang
ing to the wire by his tail.
"Ah," said the philosophical attor-
ney, "he is cooked all ready; cleo
troduced-all 1 will have to do is to
warm him for breakfast" And he
did, and was all swelled up about
it all day yesterday.
