LITTLE PROGRESS

,CoNTINUED FROM FACE D.


 challenges, the McNanara murder trial went listlessly forward today. It IS hoped to obtain a jury about Yule- tide.
 Reports from Indianapolis as to the availability of certain evidence desired by the prosecution here stimulated in- ferest.
 The states attorney admitted tha, an important link to them in the chain of evidence, which they hope to cast around the defendant, was lodged ir Indiana and that they considered tht passage of the books and papers in question into federal Jurisdiction at In. dianapolis definite step forward to- ward getting them back here.
 A typical scene in which James B McNamara, the defendant, figured wat that of today when, standing just out- side the court room some local news them pleasantly.
 By the way" remarked one of the visitors to the prisoner, i've need g printer at our shop and since you are cut of job, drop around tonight and see the boss"
 certainly" replied McNamara light ly, that's my trade. but I'm bit busy with the trial at present. But il won't be long before I can take you ur on d pIOpOSlllon lihc
 McNamara declared firmly he will be free man soon.
 Circumstantial evidence will play a big part in the trial and on it the state will depend strongly, The state prefers the challenges against persons expressing non-belief in such evidence Occasionally Counsel Darrow for the defense has attempted to qualify tales men otherwise satisfactory by showing <,f ct 4gx~l evidence would work out.
 If you saw in the road the tracks of horse" said Attorney Darrow "and the horse had three good shoes with one-half of the foruth shoe miss- ing. and you went along further aud came upon horse whose three good shoes fitted the track perfectly as dId the half shoe. would you not feel justi- fled in concluding beyond all doub. that the horse had been along the roac where you observed the tracks?"
 Louis Wilhelm shattered this theory when he answered that he would no1 believe it.

SMOKERS AROUSE MIR. M'GRATH'S IRE
Says Smoking in Street Cars Is All Kinds of a
 Nuisance

"A public nuisance that should 'be treated as such by the civic author ities and eliminated as soon as pos sible is the smoking at all times prac- ticed on street cars that are used by Grath. secretary of the Associated Charities, yesterday when seen just after his return from 10 days visit to New York city.
 When there is no compartment sci aside for those who desire to indulge in smoking the present habit of stand ing on the front platform or on the rear and smoking is, to say the least, very disagreeable. The summer time, with the windows and doors open, did not make this so noticeable but with the. advent of the colder weather and the. high winds the smoke is waited through the car every time the doors are opened and the passengers just have to endure it..
 "There are three degrees with which the objection varies. The least is when
 the smoking is confined to the roar
 platform; the greater is when the iron.
 of the car is crowded with smokers
 that fill the car with their cigar or
 pipe blowings, and the greatest is wh-n the individual who is smoking calmly seats himself in the car and continues I to puff In unconcerned, indifference This can hardly be pleasant to those ladies who have far to ride or who dc not care for tobacco smoke under any circumstances
 l "One remedy for this would be the ] Installation of the pay as you enter car but this would mean an inccn-
 venience to the street car company to
 work reform that can be effected bv the civic officials. However. this l tyne of car would soon become pop
 ular with the travelling public as the passing back and forth of the con | ductor through the crowded aisles
 would be needless and one would soon become accustomed to having his fare
 ready to deposit in the box as he board
 ed the car .It surely would not wreak any hard shin on the men who smoke to foregc lthis in the street cars, especially in l consideration of tho women. Another
 reason for the discontinuing of this is that 1t has been proven that disease germs can be conveyed by smoke. I 'Even if the grounds of health should be disregarded the courtesy due l inc women who patronize the street
 cars should be sufficient reason for the stopping of this. The remedy must Irest in the hands of the city author | ities and through their. efforts this car he abolished. t.
 T understand that the conductor or motorman employed on the cars has nc l police power and should man refuse 1 to cease smoking upon request he could
 not be made to get off the car or change his seat.v

HAVE NEW IDEAS IN EXAMS
Professors Have Adopted the Oral Ex-
arsInatIons In Preference to the
Written.

A number of professors in the Eng
lish department at the University Of
Pennsylvania have adopted the oral
examination in preference to the writ
ten. A large number Of test questions
are written upon cards. The student
is required to pick three, i've or ten
questions, as the case may be. and an
swer them.
AS soon as he has finished, says the
Old Penn Weekly Review, he IL told
whether he has passed. which obvi-
ates weeks Of waiting for the results
Of written examinations. The scheme
is said 70 eliminate all possibility Of
dishonesty and compels q man to
stand squarely upon his own ability.
The honor system is In force In the
Wharton school Of finance and COM
merce. In this school also there has
originated q system Of cooperation
with the fraternities In keeping delin-
quent students up to their work. Each
fraternity has board of representa-
tives upon scholastic standing.
In the Wharton school quizzes are
given to freshmen and sophomores
every two weeks. The results are sent
to the fraternity representatives. who.
upon finding a member of their SO
ciety deficient In his work, appoint a
man to coach the delinquent The
scheme has been so successful that
some Of the fraternities have taken 1t
up in connection with other depart
ments. One fraternity which lost two
years ago 9 number OF its members
through failure in examinations was
not obliged to drop one last June.
This year the fraternities reported
that their men were better prepared
for examinations than ever before.
