THEY CAN'T SWIM.
This Is Condition of More Than $500
Men in the Fleet.

Washington: Feb. 7.-Attention is di-
rected in an official report by Rear Ad-
miral Schroeder in command of the At
lantic fleet now engaged in practice
maneuvers in Guantanamo bay, Cuba
to the remarkable fact that more than
$500 men in the fleet cannot swim. In
a brief report of the fleets operations
during the last week, the commander
says instructions were held for the men
who are not at home in the water.
During the week the landing forces of
the Georgia, the New Jersey, the Nebras-
ka and the Rhode Island were encamped
on Deer Point. Rifle and pistol practice
and various drills were held High scores
were made in the small arms practice
and battalions were exercised at wall
scaling.
On Wednesday the Marine regiments
were given a practice march across the
country with the idea of concentrating
and repelling a supposed attack On
Thursday afternoon the fleet went to sea
where battle evolutions were continued
until Friday evening.
Admiral Schroeder reports that the
practice work is progressing satisfactorily
and the spirit of the men is excellent.

TWO FREEZE TO DEATH.
Extreme Cold Weather Prevails in
Eastern States.

Philadelphia, Feb. Extremely
cold weather prevails today through
out eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey
and Delaware. The bodies of two
men were found on the streets of the
city during the night, both having been
frozen to death. In the anthracite
coal regions the temperature is below
zero and in some of the mountain sec
tons of Pennsylvania the mercury fell
to 10 degrees below.
The minimum temperature in Phila-
delphia was degrees above zero at
a. M, the coolest weather recorded
here since February 5, 1908.
New York Strikes Minimum.
New York. Feb. New York
city struck the minimum in winter
temperatures and just about the maxi
mum of cold weather discomfort and
suffering today.
Records for the season were broken
with the registering of a temperature
of degrees above zero at a. m. The
lowest point previously reached by
the mercury of the official thermome-
ter at the weather bureau was de-
grees above on January 5.
Indications were for q continuation
all day of the cold wave in its severest
form. Along the Atlantic coast the
wave of frigidity was felt to an anxiety
not experienced for several years, the
combination of zero temperature with
gales as high as those prevailing not
often being recorded.

BAN ON FRATS AT X. U.
Every Member of T. N E to Be Ex-
pelled-If Caught.

Lawrence, Kan. Feb. About
twenty young men at the University
of Kansas are in line to be expelled
from school because they are members
of the Theta M Epsilon fraternity. A
ruling of the university is that no stu
dent is allowed to join the Theta NJ
Epsilon fraternity; and that those al
ready members must cease their ac-
tivity.
Since the ruling was adopted in 1907
the Theta NJ Epsilon ostensibly has
been out of existence at this univer-
sity. A few weeks ago the Kansan,
the university newspaper, printed an
article stating that the Theta NJ Ep-
silon fraternity was planning to hold a
party in Fraterna1 Aid hall, February
IL. 1t was stated that the hall had
already been rented by this organiza-
ton. Chancellor Frank Strong and the
board of regents took the matter up.
The chancellor has mailed letters to
the 257 fraternity men of the univer-
sity. The letter reads as follows:
Dear Sir: At the direction of the
board of regents, and as chancellor of
the university. 1 ask that you please
give me an answer to the following
questions in writing on this sheet:
''FirSt-Are you, or have you been
since April 10, 1907, either officially or
unofficially. directly or indirectly, con-
nected with the society or fraternity
commonly known as ct. N. E." or sub
stan TALLY the same society or group
of men under any other name?
''Second-If so, by what right or
permission, direct or indirect secret
or otherwise, did you connect yourself
with such society,""
The Theta NJ Epsilon fraternity is
made up of members of all the other
fraternities. The only question in the
matter is, How are the members go
ing to answer the chancelIor's letter?
The action against the SET. n. e.
was taken because the organization
some years ago gave a celebration and
champagne party at which many be
came drunk, and the result was that
they were arraigned in the Lawrence
police court to answer the charge of
disorderly conduct

BOTH STAND FIRM.
The Pope and Fairbanks Seem Unable
to Get Together.

Rome. Feb. THE visit to Rome of
c. w. Fairbanks. former vice presi-
dent of the United States, brought
about delicate situation because of
the fact that he wished to pay his re-
spects to the king. to the pope and
to the American Methodist church.
By a tactful arrangement, Mr.. Fair
banks audience with King Victor
Emmanuel was fixed for Saturday and
that with the Pope for Monday But
when everything seemed satisfactorily
planned, the vatican announced that it
would be impossible for his holiness to
receive the former vice president If he
carried out his intention to speak in
the American Methodist church here,
because the Methodists had been ac-
tive in PROSECUTING among the Catho-
lies.
Negotiations were Immediately be-
gun to avoid any unpleasantness and
in these negotiations prominent vati-
can officials exerted every influence to
remove the difficulties that so unex-
pectedly had presented themselves to
Mr.. Fairbanks audience with the pope:
But Mr.. Fairbanks finally declared
that although he was animated by a
strong desire to pay his respects to the
head of the Catholic church, he could
not withdraw from his promise to de-
liver an address before the American
Methodist church
Monsignor Kennedy, rector of the
American college (Catholic), gave a
dinner at noon in honor of Mr.. Fair
banks. The hall was decorated with
American flags. Among those present
were IA American students.
Mr.. Fairbanks in rising gave a toast
to the Christian church. making no
distinction of denomination. He
declared that the Catholic church had
accomplished great things for God and
humanity, while past prejudices
against the Catholics had disappeared
entirely, for the church ever was at
the front when the integrity of the
country needed to be defended or its
dignity to be upheld.
At the American Methodist church,
Mr.. Fairbanks address acquired ex-
ceptional importance because of the in
cident with the vatican and it is looked
upon as his final answer to the con-
ditfons imposed upon him relative to
his audience with the pope
