Domestic Science Building.
With reference to the domestic

viction is that we should have such a
building as will meet the demands Of
the present and the future Of our
university. The question OF the
amount to be appropriated for this
purpose is largely a matter for the
legislature, and any appropriation
which the legislature makes will have
my approval for the construction of
such building as will be adequate
for present as well as future needs.
1t Is my belief that our educational
institutions should give far more time
to practical education than to the
study of the dead languages and such
education as is largely theoretical
The teaching of domestic science is a
step in the right direction and meets
with my entire approval.
Property Rights Of Wife.
Our laws governing the rights of
married women in the management

following respects:
(a) The law should be relieved OF

plain and certain, SO as to given ia
married women the sole and uncon-
ditional right to manage and control
her separate property and the rents
and profits thereof. and to dispose OF
and convey the same without the
signature OF the husband.
CD The wife's signature ard ack-
nowledgement should be required In
all cases for the conveyance or in

Outline Of CampAian.

London, Oct. 1S.-While Turkey and
the Balkan states are carrying out the
last formalities connected with the
declaration of war, interest has been
transferred to the prospects of the
campaign.
Two influences are expected to make
the war short and sharp. The first Is
the approa n of winter, the second Is
financial pressure. None Of the bel
ligerent states is in a position to stand
the strain of prolonged military OPP
erations.
Bulgaria was disappointed recently
in trying to raise a small loan In Paris
while Turkey has been endeavoring in
New York and Paris to borrow money,
but without success. The financial
resources OF the other states concerned
are very limited. Little Is likely to be
heard Of the European conference I'M
til some decisive action has been
fought. when doubtless the European
concert will renew it's efforts to bring
about peace on broad lines.
The war is expected to develop into
a land campaign between Bulgaria and
Turkey and a naval struggle between
| Turkey and Greece. 1t is believed
| Turkey will concentrate her strength
and attack the Bulgarians separately
before the Servians come to their aid.
Much will depend upon whether Tur-
| key gains command Of the sea, which
| would facilitate the movement of her
Asiatic troops to the scene of war.

Balkan states have concerted their
plans. The independent action of Mon

night in continuous session. but is

| tial victories over the Montenegrins.
| The Greeks are rejoicing over their

of Arta and secures a supply of stores
to the army of Epirus.
Through the official declaration OF
war, Greece is deprived Of the serv-
ices of a Chinese cruiser she had ar
ranged to purchase at Newcastle as
she had been obliged to abandon the
purchase for fear Of diplomatic com
plications. The four destroyers which

Lull in the Fighting.

Podseritza, Montenegro. Oct. 1s.--
The fighting ceased yesterday after
noon temporarily. The troops of the
Montenegro center are concentrating
around Tushi. preparatory to a general
advance against Scutari. Strong bod
les Of Turks have been dispatched
from that city against them. and a
great battle Is imminent on grounds
most unfavorable to the Montenegrin
army-the marshy eastern shore OF
Lake Scutari.
In the event Of their being defeated
the Montenegrins will be left with
their rear unprotected, the small lake
of Houas lying behind them. rendering
communication with the other col
unns difficult.
More than 800 wounded from the
northern column have been brought
here and the lack of doctors already is
making itself felt. Crown Princess
Xlitza Is personally directing the work
at the provisional hospitals.

utterly rejects Premier Poincaires'
