AMEs A PARADISE FOR GIRLS.

at Iowa Institution.

-Ames. Dec. e2.-An eastern paper
recently made the statement that Alnes
is one Of the foremost matrimonial
centers in the country. Conditions are
really worse than the writer of the
article in question knew OF. Recent de-
velopments have shown that the girls
a Iowa State College have developed
a full hedged trust, virtual monopoly
in restraint OF trade
The facts came to light in connection
with the crusade that was started not
long ago for the purpose Of securing
new girls dormitery. There was a
strange apathy among the girl students
toward movement in which they
should have been especially interested
Investigation brought out the fact that
they did not desire the competition that
would be the inevitable result of the
erection of such building II would
mean 200 or 500 more girls. and that
would dilute the present supply 10 such
an extent that present hold-up methods
could no longer be enforced
At the present time there is about
one girl 10 every seven boys This
makes Ames a paradise for girls. as
they have an opportunity for selection

MIR. Ellerbe Undergoes Operation.

Washington, June 7.-Represen-
tative Ellerbe, who broke his leg last
Friday night by fall in the lobby
of the Metropolitan hotel, underwent
a severe operation to-day. BY a
minute examination with the X-ray
it was found that the fracture was
considerably complicated. The large
bone (tibia) of the shin was broken
with great unevenness and numer-
GUS pieces of shattered bone. These
could not be got into place by an or
binary setting. The surgeon had to
saw off the shattered ends, so as to
fit them evenly together. He stood
the operation we'll and is doing
nicely, though suffering from the Sc
we're effects of the ether. 1t is be-
lieved that while he will be confined
to his bed for several weeks, the
fracture will readily heal and there
will be ne serious or permanent in
jury.
1t is learned to-day that he was
sitting in chair when arising sud-
denly with his legs crossed, his right
foot slipped on the smooth tiled floor
and too much weight was thrown
upon his right leg at an angle. He
fell to the floor and attempted to
rise, but found he could not, till
friends lifted him up to find that his
leg was broken. He experienced no
pain at first and could not believe
that his leg was really broken.
