FROM CALCULUS TO JAIL
Columbia "sophs' Conquered
Former and Got Hilarious.

The end of troubles of the Columbia Uni
versity sophomores came yesterday. In
other words, the young men completed
their course in mathematics, and they Gel
ebrated accordingly. What matters 1t that
ten Of their number languished in jail last
night as a result Of their hilarity? While
the celebration was in progress every one
was happy among the students.
The sophomores met on the campus ana
started a huge bonfire. When ii was burn
ing most fercely they fed II anew with
volumes Of calculus and other msthsmat-
zeal problems that vex a students mind.
Then they performed a war dance about
the fire and sans loud and long.
After these obsequies had been com
pleted thirty Of the hilarious Young men
started on a triumphal march down Broad
way. They carried large signs eXtoNing
the qualities of various brands Of beer,
with their class numerals emblazoned
thereon In place Of brass band the
students used their lungs-and this was
their undoing
Persons living in the apartment houses
along the line OF march complained 20 the
police of the West Tooth street station and
a flying squad of bicycle patrolmen set out
in pursuit. Ten Of the hilarious were taken
prisoners and locked up on charges Of dis
orderly conduct This had the effect OF
ouieting the others. and Harlem went TO
bed in peace.

Air Above Fair Ground
United Commercial Travellers Receive Great Credit for SpIen

Of Most Successful Flights Ever Made

TO see human being soar through
the air like bird is a wonderful 1t
and citizens OF Fargo and vicinity Z.
members Of the United Commerce q
Travellers attending the mammoth
convention of that organization now
in session. in this city, were treated to
a marvellous exhibition of this plle-
nomenal feat yesterday at the state
fair grounds when Robert st. Henry
rose 1875 feet and sailed through
space distance Of seven miles or
more.
No more ideal day could have been
selected for the three flights Of ST.
Henry and though attended by great
humidity and somewhat threatening
skies Immediately prior to the time
appointed for the start Of the bird
mans trip, the aviation hour itself
was calm and still and the atmos-
pheric conditions perfect.
The great throngs that witnessed
the ascent OF the aviator, a North
Dakota boy who made one Of his FIRST
trips in his home state yesterday,
were well satisfied with the exhibition.
In every way did the demonstration
OF the powers of a heavier -than-a afr
machine going through the elements
prove successful, and 1T has been
said by those accompanying st. Henry
in his various flights over the coun-
try, that he has never been seen more
ct his best than yesterday in Fargo.
The First Trip.
Expectant and excited to high
pitch. the enormous crowd Of 1900
people watched the aviator as he made
