CORNELL FRESHMEN ARE
FORBIDDEN MUSTACHES

ithaca, March 2.-The Cornell
general committee, that group
of upper cIassmen who are ar
bitraters of underclass conduct,
met today to discuss violations
of the freshman rules. Com
plant was made that under
ciassmen had taken to copying
the older students in growing
mustaches.
A dozen years ago, when the
mustRche habit was in vogue
among college students, a rule
was passed prohibiting sopho-
mores and freshmen from row
ing lip adornments and as the
rule is still in force the commit
tee ordered all under ciassmen
to shave their lips forthwith.

ErmIne at the Coronation.

The finest ermine skins come from
Inc continent. Those from America
are not nearly SO fine in quality. The
former skins have been principally
used by the best West end houses, but
a good many skins come in from Amer
lea. and a good number of these have
undoubtedly been used for conora-
ton robes.
The statement from st. Louis that
100000 skins were used for the car
OF Russta's cloak caused much amuse-
ment, and is regarded by the trade
here as an example Of American hui
nor. When we come to think of it.
a quarter million skins does seem a

VARIETY SECRET OF CHARM
This Explains Why Our American
Women Are So Attractive to
Foreign Visitors.

Foreigners r impressed by the
peculiar attractiveness Of American
women" writes Grace M. Gould in
the Wonlan's Home Companion. They
say that, next to their own women, it
is the American woman who charms
the most.
Now why is this so?"
1T is because of the infinite variety
of the American woman, which
pleases the eye and holds the magma
ton. When any large number Of
women are under observation, attract.
iveness must imply constant change,

His experience is this: He meets
the tall and stately wife OF his club
friend, whose poise and elegance are
her conspicuous characteristics; next,
he takes in to dinner a fluffy, corfid.
ing young creature without any poise
at all. Later, perhaps, he meets a
blue-stocking girl, who looks at him
critically through her lorgnette: and
from her he turns to q demure,
nouselike maiden, whose infrequent
gaze is soulful and who says little,
SO intensely. The
Irritation girl and the athletic girl

Yet he remembers distinctly each

ners, has emphasized her own iden-
tity."

Angel OF tho Battlefield.

Is, according to records, the second
Oldest Crimean veteran of her sex in

Elephants Killed by Rats.

In 1853 three of Hagenbeck's ele-
plants, just brought from Africa,
were attacked by rats, which ate
through the wooden floor on which
they (the elephants) stood and gnaw-
ed the animals feet. ALI three died,
no doubt from fright ssthe from
pain. Mr. Robinson, in quoting this
story as "the most dreadful" appar-
emily In his collection Of anecdotes
OF elephants attacked by puny enc
mics, seems to be unaware that the
same thing has happened in England.
The first chronicled instance, we be-
lieve, belongs not to the Regents
Park Geological Gardens, but to Cliff
ton, and has been duly recorded by
Frank auckland. But there has been
trouble in the London Gardens before
low with rats attacking the large ami
mails; the old hippopotamus Guy
Tawkes was one OF the sufferers.

The Ellie ry Band at the Corn Palace

he Ellery bapo al inc Soril Z dldce
The most prominent feature in
the entertainment of the crowds of
people who will come to see the
Mitchell Corn Palace in 1911 will
be the Ellery Band. Mitchell has
each year presented at her Corn
Palace one Of the best bands that
could beobtained anywhere mong,
these have been Sousa's Band, The
! Marine Band, Pat Conway's Band
and many others of prominence.
This year the Ellery Band, which
has for its headquarters at the
present time, London, England, will
be in Mitchell for Corn Palace week.
The Ellery Band has been pro-
claimed throughout the United
States as the foremost of its class
and the press everywhere from the
Atlantic to the Pacific has lavIshed
upon its work such praise as even
New York's great opera companies
might we'll envy. Mr.. Ellery's
band has spent a greater part of
four summer seasons in Chicago,
and it has Ibeen recently adopted
by some of that city's leading citi-
zens who have formed a stock COM
pany to support it upon the very
highest level of musical art.
The Ellery Band played at Glas-
gov on Coronation Day and the
newspapers iii Glasgow III writing
of Ellery's Band declare that it has
taught local organizations even to
play their own national air and |
that never has "God Save the
King" been rendered in such a rev.
erent and expressive manner. Opie
Reid says:-''The Ellery Band has
no rival. 1t stands magnifcently
alone"
The band program for the week
includes ninety-six numbers with
out a single duplicate. No such
treat was ever offered to the music
lovers of South Dakota. Besides
the EIlery Band the program in
the Corn Palace each afternoon
and evening will include several
vaudeville acts of the highest class.
These with the band program form
an entertainment of the highest
character.
The free street attractions will
include three good acts besides the
famous "Gregg's Automobiles that
pass in the air." This is one of
the most spectacular and sensa-
sional street performances that is
shown today.
Altogether the program is one of
the best ever offered at the Corn
Palace or elsewhere and the fact
that the railroads have granted a
one fare rate for the round trip and
will run special trains on all lines
makes it possible for everyone to
attend at the minimum of time
and expense.
