A NEW LEADER.
Senator Overman of North Car
DINA.

Washington Times 9th.
A new Democratic leader is
developing in the Senate. This is
Senator Overman of North Caro-
lima. He has figured more promi-
nently during the last two
months than any Democrat on
the floor. That is to say, he has
obtained more results.
It was he who a few weeks
ago initiated the flibuster
against the Lodge resolution ask
ing for $65, 600 with which to
pursue the cost of living inquiry.
He convinced his Democratic as
sociates that the movement of
the Massachusetts, man was de-
signed to provide the Republican
party with campaign material.
Before the filibuster had proceed
, ed ten days, Senator Lodge with
drew his bill.
The latest legislative achieve
, ment to the credit of Senator
. Overman was his success in put
; ting thu ough the anti-injunction
amendment to the railroad bill.
This prohibits the Federal courts
s from interfering with judgment:
Of State courts without due
notice and a hearing. This reso
luton was presented as a sur
n prise and its adoption was a com
V pete shock in some quarters.
Il Just now when the Democrat
lie are looking for a floor leader t

Id to retire next March, Overma
Re looms up big. This is true i

LIFE AT VASSAR HELD
TO BE TOO STRENUOUS

POUGHKEEPSIE, n. Y. April 2s.-
The suicide at Andover. Mass, of
popular member of the junior class at
Vassar, presumably from overstudy. has
opened a controversy here as to the
strain forced upon young women in the
cause of modern education. 1t is esti.
mated that about 90 per cent of the
girls who enter Vassar freshman class
are forced to retire during their first
year, and that 10 per cent of the sopbo~
mores drop out because of failure in
examinations during the second year of
college life, Another per cent are
compelled to quit during the junior year
because of inability TO Keep up with
the requirements of the Course.
The Vassar authorities insist that a
girls breakdown there is not due to
overstudy as rule, but TO the girl S
own mental and physical makeup. Mrs
kendrick, supervising principal of the
college, says in statement published
today that Vassar girls are not com
pclIed to work harder than girls at
other colleges, nor are they pressed
more by instructors
