AFFINITY CASE IN BERLIN.
Member Of Reiehstag Arrested on a
Charge Rejecting on His Morality.

Berlin. Oct. 13.-Social and political
circles here are deeply interested in
the outcome OF the impending trial of
William Setback, member Of the reich
stag from the Jena district, who was
arrested recently on charges seriously
rejecting upon his morality. Under
the pseudonym "Iriole," rather sugges-
tive under the circumstances, he ad-
vertised for an affinity" A young
girl answered the advertisement and at
the same time notified the public pros
ecutor, who had Setback arrested when
he called at the newspaper office to
receive the replies to his advertise
ment. Setback was indignant and pro-
tested that the matter did not concern
the prosecutor, as Mrs. Setback, for
many years an invalid, had given her
consent to the proposed affinity ar
rangement. Schacks political friends
and supporters, who are deeply morti-
fed by the expose are trying to prove
Setback insane.

Amherst, Mass, oct. 13.-Exercises
were held at Amherst College today
in celebration Of the nftieth anniver-
sary of the establishment of what is
claimed to be the first college gym
nasum i'm America.
The history of the movement which
resulted in the erection of Barrett
gymnasium at Amherst goes back 20
the summer of the year 1895, when
the student body petitioned the faculty
for holiday on which to clean up the
college grove. With slight hesitation
the request was granted and the work
of removing stumps, logs and rubbish
was soon accomplished. A gymnastic
society was formed for the erection
and maintenance of gymnastic appa
ratus in the grove.
The faculty concurred with the stu
dents i'm the work and contributions
were raised which led To the erection
of a bath house In the grove. This
building, which was of small dimen-
sions. was destroyed by fire. The gym
nastic society nourished and a natural
outgrowth was the playing of cricket
and baseball. ON July /, 1859, Am
herst ana Williams engaged in the
first game of intercollegiate baseball.
The game which was played at Pitts
field, resulted i'm victory for Amherst,
the final score being 73 to 32.
Shortly after this date steps Were
taken for the erection Of "A college
gymnasium. Five thousand dollars
was raised by subscription and on oct
3, 1859. the cornerstone was laid. The
building was speedily completed and
was named for DR.. Benjamin Barrett
of Northampton, who was liberal
contributor to the fund.
