CAUSED SMALL RIOT.
Fifty Columbia University Students
Suffer From Acid Burns.

classmen at Columbia university are
suffering from acid burns as the re-
suit of the carelessness of one of their
number. The professor of chemistry
had just concluded a lecture to his
class when one of the students set
down a bottle of acid too forcibly,
causing it to explode and scattering
the fluid over the whole class. Imme-
diately there was a small riot, for
practically all the students received
small quantities on their hands and
faces. The laboratory assistants al
though themselves badly burned,
helped the students wash off the acid.
None of the burns. it was said today,
will cause permanent Disagreement.

be raised somehow to help the fair this
year. The defeat of these bonds has
taken the enthusiasm out Of the d1-
rectors. The work has been to build
up a big fair. The help of Hutchinson
was needed to get an appropriation.
That help was denied. Is it a wonder
that the directors do not feel good
about it today?'
Other directors talk in the Same
way. All are discouraged at the result.
They were sincere in wanting to do
something for the fair and they offered
to do the one thing that was necessary
in order to get the state interested in
it. One of the members Of the board
stated today that he was for making
a real estate proposition out of it, al
together, now, killing the fair if that
was the best way to make the most
money out of it. And this man is pub
lie spirited, too, and has worked for
ten years. without pay, both with his
personal work and with his money, to
help Hutchinson"

agitated over these questions. and that
one of the greatest political fights
the country had ever seen was the out
come However England has again
settled down TO the even tenor of her
ways.
Mr.. Ward had a somewhat rough
passage across the Atlantic. He said
that he met on board the boat a young
man named Thomas Clemo who told
him he was coming to Calumet. Young
Clcmo is wen known Cornish wrest-
Ter, and has been wrestling with sue
cess i'm the old country. Mr.. Ward said
Clemo is about "a years OF age and
stockily built weighing i'm the neigh
