STRIKE OF goo STUDENTS
Manhattan College Campus Scene
of Fiery Demonstration.

Two hundred students of Manhattan College
went on strike last night because of the refusal
of the faculty TO reinstate one Of their number
who was expelled. and they made noisy dem
onstration round a bonfire on the campus and
listened to fiery speeches until midnight. The
student body at the college numbers about five
hundred and all Of them say that they will not
return to college unless their demands are
granted.
John P Nugent, the son Of a wealthy shoe
manufacturer of Troy, n. y, is the student who
was expelled. on March l. he got permission,
the boys say, from the prefect Brother Altheus.
to leave the college. He returned at ! o'clock
the next morning, and WAS called before Brother
Peter the president of the college The presi-
dent would not recognize the permission granted
by the prefect and summarily expelled Nugent
The boy went to live at neighboring frater-
nifty house with friends. and the students de-
cided to appeal his case. Brother Peter refused
to entertain their petition and the students
communicated with members of the college

EIGHT DREADNOUGHTS.
B,itain's Little NaUy' Party GiUeS
Up Fight-BeresfOrd ActiCe.

London, March 30-The debate in the House
Of Commons yesterday appears almost to have
hattened the little navy" party Newspapers
which have heretofore been it's strongest organs
now say that it is impossible for the country TO
run the smallest risk of being overtaken by
Germany in the construction of battleships
There are good reasons for believing that the
Cabinet has already decided to build eight
Dreadnoughts. and has Informed shipbuilders
of the intention to lay down the second four
within the fiscal year.
There is likelihood that the popular figure of
Admiral Lord Charles Beresford will be seen
soon in the thick OF the political struggle,
throwing fresh fuel the naval agitation
England's foremost admiral has always been
olltspoken concerning his views. and, since his
return to London after having been relieved
from the command Of the Channel fleet, he has
talked freely with his friends saying that he
would do all in his power to stir up the coun-
try, TO insist on a large, and particularly more
efficient navy.
Lord Charles had a long discussion on naval
affairs with Premier Asquth to-day, the result
Of which will largely determine his course. He
regards the shortage of reserve stores as the
chief present weakness of the navy, although
the state of repair of the smaller craft is most
unsatisfactory to him. while. on the other hand,
he considers the fighting efficiency of the big
ships splendid.
Lord Charles blames the economical policy
of the Cabinet ministers for the defects, partic-
uIarIv the Chancellor of the ExChe4uer, David
I.loyd-George, whom he designates as a little
navy man. whose interests, he says. ARE
chiefly old age pensions and other domestic
projects"

was asked about the outlook for the future he
said;
Assuming that the city. now that We are
near the constitutional deb. margin. viii run
its affairs with due re-ard for economy, spend
ing money for permanent improvements only
where such improvements are imperativeIy
needed. and further assuming that with the re-
sumption of good times there Will be a large and
steady growth in population. the tax rate should
not greatly increase in the next five or six
years
Indeed 1 am in hopes that after next year
the rate will show a reduction II certainly
would show a reduction soon but for the stead
lily increasing charges due To great permanent
improvements like the Catszill aqueduct- The
city IS fully committed To that work, and must
there Will be a steadily increasing interest
budget charge on that particular account
"On the other hand, the bridge building -
nearly done, and other projects involving large
interest charges to be met by the annual budget
are well under way. If too many new things
are not begun the increases in assessed valua-
tions ought to carry the normal and necessary
increases in the budget. II looks 70 me as II
there would be a large increase in the assessed
valuations next year
The reports We are receiving indicate that
building operations and improvements are going
on on a large scale in the outlying boroughs-
The revenues from the Dock and Water depart
ments are likely TO increase, and the city prob
ably will collect within the next tax year a large
volume Of taxes in arrears
'All of these factors Will tend To lessen the
tax burden. warranting the belief that the in

years will be much less, year by year. than in
the last two or three years

next administration keep the tax rate from

ing this town has ever known.
Rev. d. H. Comann, of Lenoir,
N. c., did the preaching.
The Lord wonderfully blessed
all. The Scriptures were opened
in a new way. The Word of God
was given in its purity. No one,
not even the very aged, ever
heard the gospel as Brother
Comann presented it. And when
the physical man, Comann, left
the people did not say so much
about their lore for the man.
They gave sufficient proof of that,
but what he left was an ever
lasting possession, even a pure
love for the things Of God.
The reason why we liked TO hear
him preach is because of what
he sid. His gospel is purely
scriptural.
Many adult members of the
Church remarked that much of
the Bible that they had never
understood was made clear. He,
Brother Comann, is a wonderful
man, because God is with him
and he keeps right with God.
His chief strength is in doctrine.
He made made many of the Bible
doctrines very clear even to the
children.
The results Of this meeting no
man can ever tell. Many pre-
fessed conversion and sauctiiica-

Fowler. But to our story-here
is what we saw-three two-horse
Syracuse plows bedding up cot
ton land, rows four feet wide.
Well, they looked pretty high,
but here came one two-horse
team to spading harrow run
ming along the top of these rows
cutting up any clods upturned,
then came q cutaway harrow,
and finally a heavy log drawn
by another double team-,n all
seven hands and IA heavy mules.
Well, it looked like business, and
it was business. The rows were
about level at the close, and the
soil fine and ready for the fertili-
zer distributors and the cotton
planters. We can not conceive
of a much better plan or how
you could thoroughly prepare the
soil with less labor, except in
sandy lands here one harrow
and the log would do, and in
some instances simply the log
would do the work.
But Mr.. Fowler has very stiff
clay land. We can confidently
predict that in the future the
business farming IS going to in
