President kingsbury Explains

Regarding the matter of the Willard
Thompson scholarships, President
kingsbury of the university makes an
explanation. He submits correspond
ence between President Benjamin Ide
Wheeler Of the University of California
and himself, to show to the public why
graduates of local universities and col
leges have been selected rather than
those without a college education as
provided for in Mrs. Thompson IS will.
Nothing was said in the VIII of college
graduates nor parties holding degrees,
but high schools were specified, the evi-
dent intent of the lady being TO pro-
vide education for boys and girls of
Utah who needed such education. Pres
ident hlngsbury states that by publish
ing the letters the public will under.
stand why high school graduates who
had not completed a college course were
not recommended. The correspondence
follows:
My Dear President Kingsbury:
You may have heard OF the heuuest
OF the Thompson scholarships: They are
for students from Utah. For the COM
Ing year $4,000 will be available. We
have not decided yet how large the in
dirldual scholarships shall be. ! have
however, thought that $500 would be an
appropriate sum, inasmuch as this would
meet all the expenses of one years
study ] hove also thought It would be
better 10 offer the schola rships prina rily
10 graduates. This would interfere less
with the work OF the existing Utah. in
stitutlons | think, however. IT will be
blessing TO have your people come TO
us IL would be for our people 10 go
to you; II will mix the intellectual blood
as between the states. IL has occurred
to me that 1t might be best To have the
scholars appointed and sent to us by a
Utah committee TO be composed perhaps
OF the superintendent OF instruction. the
pre- president Of the stat state university and
your advice and counsel In this matter
Very sincerely yours,
lSigned) BENZ. IDE WHEELER.
President j. T. Kingsbury. University
of Utah.
May 10. 1910.
Dear President Wheeler
In accordance with your desire. ] sug-
gest that the committee on the Thomp-
son scholarships be composed of the per-
sons named in your letter and the presi-
dent OF the Agricultural college. 1
heartily agree with YOU that these scho-
larships be for graduate students only
CsIgneD j. T, K1NGsBuRY.
President Benz. I. Wheeler. University
Berkeley. May q. 1910
My Dear President Klngsbury:
MAY ask you. acting as chairman OF
a committee 10 be composed of your
self. the governor Of the state. and
president OF the Agricultural college. TO
nominate for the ensuing year at this
university five young men from Utah
who shall be. on appointment by the
regents OF the University OF California
the Thompson scholars for one year
There Is no reason why they should not.
II they succeed, be reappointed Pre-
ferably they should be graduate stu
dents. The amount Of the scholarship
viii be for the coming year $500 II
should not be held necessary that the
young men should be natives or Utah. !
but that they should be residents of
the state. and by preference graduates

DISAPPOINTED BY
HALLEY'S COMET

New York, May 21-About the most
disappointed man In New York over
the unsatisfactory conduct of HalIey's
comet is Emerson McMillen, wealthy
banker. who spent several thousand
dollars on the tricky sky wanderer and
got no return whatever. II was Mr.
McMlllen who. financed and planned
the expedition of astronomers to Ha-
wall
well. the mission was a complete
failure according 10 Mr.. McMillen
But 1t was not the fault of the as
tronomers. it was the fault of the
comet itself 1t did not show up In
Hawaii as was expected
McMillen became an enthusiast on
astronomy when he was soldier In
the army during the Civil war. One of
his first large donations was for an
observatory at the Ohio State unIver-
Sity in Columbus. his former home.
When the coming OF Halley's comet
was announced, he resolved TO have
observations made from the most fay-
orablc point, which seemed Hawaii.
He chose Professors II. c. Lord and
c. F. Coddington of the Ohio State
university and they. with two assist
ants, sailed two months ago.

QUEEN HAS
A SORROW

Madrid. May 21.-Quecn Victoria
was delivered OF boy, still-born. at
4 o'clock this morning. The unhappy
outcome is attributed to premature
accouchement. which. however. was
otherwise natural. Tho body will be
buried without ceremony in the royal
pantheon of the Escurlal monastery.
Whe ntold OF her loss. the mother
wept bitterly. King Alfonso Is still In
London. where he attended yesterday
the funeral OF the Queens uncle. the
late King Edward VII
The last few weeks had been most
trying for her Majesty. Early In the
present month approach of the con-
flnement was noted by the royal phySi-
clan. and twice during the days which
followed the officials OF the court were
summoned under tho impression that
the birth was imminent While this
state OF doubt existed. his Majesty
was obliged TO go to London for the
royal obseduies.
According to custom, Premier Ca
naleJas Y. Mendes bire the body TO a
room adjoining the queens chamber
for the inspection by the members of
the royal family and the court func-
tionaries. who had been waiting there.
The present is the first instance Of
still-birth In the Spanish royal fam
lily, although a child of Queen Isabella
ii lived only long enough to receive
the lustral water

boys and girl. all surviving.

THE Panama canal has cost the
United States 100000 .000." said Mr..
Nixon. The only equality that
should mark Its use Is equality as
among American ships And, If the
country has entered into any treaties
or conventions that would seem TO
give 10 other nations the right TO use
the canal on an equality with this
country, We should lose no time In
abrogating such agreements"
Mr.. Nixon. speaking to the subject,

eress OF the United States had barter,

Smell 7 [ HE
COME rs GAS

Denver. May 20.-People living In
the neighborhood of Congress Park, a
fashionable district Of the city, are
laughing over q joke played upon them
through the failure of the comet to
keep to the schedule prepared by as,
tronomers and the happening of a
universally discredlted small animal
upon the scene.
James K. Stewart. secretary of the
board of public health and safety.
made restless by thinking OF the COM
ct, was lying awake at the time when
the earth was supposed 10 be passing
through the comets tail. His atten-
tlon was attracted to a peculiar gas
eous odor. which he at once conclud-
ed was gas from the comets tall.
Yesterday morning he related his ex-
perionce TO a neishbor and learned
that he. too, had noticed the odor.
1t remained TO the postman. perhaps
moro of an invest stlgating turn Of mind
that the task OF locating the source
of the mysterious odor fell. and he
conveyed the news TO each resident
something after thisgfashlon:
Did you smell the gas from the
comets tall last night?' he would In
quire.
yes; wasn't It peeuliar?"
We'll, It wasn't: the comet at all.
1t was a polecat the; dogs chased out
of the park and it seems that 1t trav-
eled over my entire route In making
his escape You know. OF course. that
the comet didn't reach the earth last
night. but was delayed in some man
ner."

STYLES OF THE 7o's REVIVED.
cordines, Ruchines and Puffinss Trim
Dainty Costumes for Summer.

One of the quaint and picturesque
costumes of the summer Is OF white
, tulle. and with it Is a little short
coat OF oId-tpestry-blue taffeta The
dress Is made over a foundation Of
white satin, the underslSirt tied In
very tightly around the knees so
that II 1t were not clouded by the
chiffon and tulle In the dress its
! lines would be little too daring.
| The gown Is trimmed elaboTately af-
ter the 1870 fashion with cordings
and ruchings and puffings that are
quite lndescribable. On the skirt is
q deep flounce of wonderfully 0ne
black chantilly lace. and the not of
, black is repaeted In the waist by a
deep knife-pleated frill Of white tulle
edged with black that trims the col
larless neck.
The blue SILK packet looks exactly
as If it might have boon part of your
mothers trousseau, It has the narrow
shoulders, the plain, close-htting back,
the Wide straight sleeves. and the
claborately trimmed front of thirty
or forty years ago There isn't line
in it that suggests a coat OF today.
There are any number of these
Quaint-lookine taffeta jackets. but for
the most part they go with dress
rof the same material. They are al
ways very much trimmed with very
narrow cord-edged ruflles an inch or
so deep or with a little boX-plaited
bands stitched down Nat at both edges.
The trimming is almost always of the
same material or OF fine self.colored
cord. used not like the braid-worl
of today. but after the fashion of a
generation ago.
