allowed 10 par ticipate in the boxing

the way, you do not know Chinese. I
suppose?"
NO"
I often wish I did. With my power
OF visual retention, 1 am able to re-
produce practically every sign of the
ten thousand commonly used in the
Chinese written language But un-
fortunately my memory is rather sub
normal than extraordinary, and am
never able to recollect what any of
these signs mean. However, we have a
little work to do in Chinatown"
We took the Third avenue elevated
to that swarming region, walked up
Mott street, and halted before an OBJ
scure. dingylooking shop, in whose
doorway stood a wide-hatted, felt

1t was evening before we arrived
and the shows were in full swing.

that 1t is rather like searching for a
needle in the proverbial haystack.
Keep a sharp lookout for a Chinese

those interviewed refused to tell what
they were going to do when they
graduated. More than half-ffty-six

President Judson, in concluding his
own report, said that it would not be
surprising If some quite startling
changes in the organization of the

The history of the American. col

DR.. Judson says. "The great develop

social sciences, the introduction of
the elective system, the growth of
large colleges, and the organization
OF technical work all have tended to
create totally different conditions from
those in the early days of the col
lege.
In the meantime the form of the

being well adapted to new require.

lem as it exists in these opening de-
cades of the twentieth century has
not yet been solved, and needs a care.

in his speech against the people OF
New Mexico and said that there has
not been legal election held in New

wants delay to investigate the state

Washington, April 26.-Senators of
every political shade were active to-
day preparing for a struggle which
will take place on the floor Of the Sen
ate tomorrow over the committee as
signments as a result Of which there
is more than mere possibility OF an
absolute split in the Republican ranks
in the Senate. The Republican insur-
gents are frankly dissatisfied. The Re
publican slate will be presented at a
caucus this afternoon which promises
to be stormy. The regular Republi-
cans insist that the insurgents have
been well taken care OF and that
there is no chance of overturning the
the slate so as to place LaFollette on
the interstate Commerce, Cummins on
the Finance and Bristow on the For
eign Relations committees which are
the points of difference causing the
greatest trouble.
StaIWarts Are Weakening.
Washington, April 26-Although
further concession was made to the
progressive Republicans by the Sen
ate committee on committees. the eX-
ecutive session of the committee broke
up absolutely today with the an
nouncement by the Progressives that
they would appeal to the caucus this
afternoon and if necessary to the

cession was the selection OF Senator
