The omen or the Stdr- 1
 As it chanced and can easily be un- derstood, Rachel could not have made a more effective entry into Zululand, or one more calculated to confirm her su- pernatural reputation. When the wild beast'' she rode plunged about she had remained seated on it as though she grew there, whereas every warrior knew that he would have fall en off. When the bull charged her that bull had died, slain by the Heavens. When the Isanuzi, a witch of repute, had lifted voice and hand against her, she had commanded her death, show ing that she feared no rival magic. True the woman would have been kill ed in any case, for such was the order of the King as to all who should dare to affront the Inkosazana, yet the cap tains had waited to see what Rachel would do that they might judge her accordingly. If she had shown fear, if she had even neglected to avenge, they might have marveled whether af- ter all she were more than a beautiful white maiden filled with the wisdom of the whites.
 Now they knew better; she was a Spirit having the power of a Spirit over beast and man, who Smote a Spirit should. The fame of it went throughout the land, and little chance thenceforward had Rachel of escaping from the shadow of her own fearful renOwn.

body Thursday morning just as if they
were perfectly at home.
The freshies decided to 90 to school
the first day in body. They assembled
early at Delmar boulevard and Union
avenue and took street cars en- masse
to the university. The old clothes men
had done a big business with the
freshies. and when they started for the
big school they looked like Coxey's
army.
The sophs We're waiting for them in

to succumb under the fierce onslaught
OF the sophs were Capt. Haydock OF

and Jim Gray. basketball player ana

The rout of the freshies was com

and linen to supply the deficiency in
the amount of rope. Star after star
in the ranks of the freshies fell and
was tied up to be carted away to the
tunnels The Unsuitable sophs gave no
quarter until the last of the brave l65
were safely tucked away underground.
The campus was muddy from the
heavy rains and this helped greatly to
make the battle beautiful sight upon
which to gait from safe distance. No
coats were worn while the conflict was
on. all parties concerned having care
fully refrained from burdening them
selves with any extra encumbrances,
and long before the battle waned mud
had become the principal covering for
the bruised and bloody freshmen.
The tunnels proved to be a perfect
remedy for misdirected freshman en-
thusiasm 1t was not until the last
freshly had been properly subdued that
any releases were allowed.
Then they were allowed to come up
onto the earth again one at time and
apollo .ize for their unseemly attempt to
enter the university as if they were
