SOME HONORARY DEGREES.

Some men have Stunned honorary
titles almost as earnestly as others
have coveted them.
After Lafayette had been made a
doctor of laws by New Jersey col
lege shortly before the close of the
revolutionary war, Baron Steuben
was in great fear lest he should meet
similar mishap. Having to pass
through a college town where the
marquis had been thus distinguished.
the old warrior, SO the story runs,
halted his men and thus addressed
them.
you shall have to spur the horses
we'll and ride through this place like
the devil, for, if they catch you, they
will make doctors of you"
There is another story that only
years ago, when college degrees
were scattered somewhat lavishly. an
illiterate old man of great wealth,
having been honored with a degree
by a college which he had laid under
obligation, made wager that he
could obtain a similar honor for his
servant. He won the wager, and, en-
COuraged by MS success, iidue an
other that he could obtain degree
for his horse. This time. however
he lost. The college authorities got
wind of his game, and in answer to
his request for a doctorate for Sc
and So the president wrote courte-
Gus note saying that although the
trustees were very anxious to oblige
so good friend of the college, they
had found on examination of the rec
ords that, though they had once con
ferred a degree upon jackass, ther'
was no precedent for comforting on'
upon a horse.-New York Press.

FLEEING THIEF IS

BULLETS
Police Fire on Charles Row, Who
Tries To Escape When Detected

Three Bullets Take Effect.
Wounded Man Has Been in Trouble
Before-Chanees Good for

In an attempt to steal one paltry
piut bottle OF milk, Charles Row was
riddled with bullets, Wednesday
morning, about o'clock, when he
tried desperately, but vainly, to
escape from Police Sergt. Dederich
and Patrolman Jupp, OF the Chene-st
station.
Although Row, who lies grievously
wounded In st. Mary's hospital, in
sists that all he was after was the
milk bottle on the doorstep OF Mrs.
Bertha Schultz, No. 1881 Bellevue
ave-, the officers declare they caught
him trying TO effect an entrance into
the house.
The officers responded to a burglar
alarm from the residence OF Fred
Regulowske, No. 1884 Bellevue-ave..
who saw Row cross the street at the
Schultz residence.
When Dederich arrived, he com
manded Row to stop. Row ran from
the scene like frightened hare. So
fleet of foot was he that the officers
saw they stood no chance in foot
race. Both officers drew their revol-
vers and fired simultaneously.
Row staggered a little but kept on
going. The sergeant fired again and
this time Row fell. One bullet pierced
his right hip, one shattered his left
arm and the third was imbedded In
the flesh of his right side.
Meanwhile the flying squadron and
an auto patrol had hurried to the
scene and Row was hurried to the
hospital. He will recover
