Injuries in a New York Gun Fight.

Two little children were shot and
probably fatally injured and several
other persons are believed to have
been wounded recently when gang of
rowdies became involved in a running
gun fight in the east side, New York,
Monday. The battle took place in
East 18th street and the thoroughfare
was crowded when the rowdies with
out warning drew guns and began
shooting at one another. A panic en-
sued and there was a wild scramble
to get out of the way of the flying
lead. Several persons were seen to
limp away but according to the police
the two children were the only ones
found to be seriously hurt.

To Gust Perkins.

It is said that at the conference of the progressive
party be held in Chicago next week an effort il to
be put George W. Perkins down and out as
reader the hosts who st Armageddon ana bat
ueo tor the Loro, There is some mystery about the
it is very persistent and strong Inquest
onably there dissatisfaction among rogresslses
with prominence in the party of Pierpont Morgans
partner the head the Harvester Trust and the
who shoveled the life insurance funds into the re-
publican campaign purse. Perkins is product and an
onent of Wall street and conservator of big inter
ests, and there probably some progsssiyes who
think ma is not the most healthy leadership for DO
litical party Not all. Of course. Colonel Roosevelt
thinks Perkins is an ideal ci@Een but Colonel Roose-
Yelt himself is rich and protector of the veal
thy During the recent campaign Perkins was shin
ing mark for the opponents of the progressive party
and his attachment prominence in the organiza-
ton that tried to put Colonel Roosevelt once more
president possibly did more than anything else to
show the true color and spirit of that movement All
OF which, no doubt genuinely grieyed those who were
sincere in their belief that the progressive ,ary was
striving for justice" and the rights of man and
not merely working TO restore an inordnatey ambi-
tous politician to power in the nation
Bot that granted would be impossible to put Per-
kins OF the party and he is to stay
in it. he Is going to be near the top He won't hold
any other place in scheme with which he associates
himself He is very pert and bumptious person and
is bound to assert himself in any undertaking to which
he is joined Perkins the largest contributor 20
the Roosevelt campaign fund. without his purse the
movement couldn't have gone very far and perhaps
wouldn't have started at all The colonel takes no
risks in these matters He wants to know that there
viii be money though for the expedition before he packs
his kit and he did not throw his hat nte ring until
he knew Perkins and Munsey and "a - his own rich
relatives would pay for any damages that might en-
sue And it must be said for Perkps that he put up
right freely almost freely Of his own as he did once
before Of other peoples money And having put up,
he asserted his right to get a run for his money and
all through the campaign, both preliminary and regular
he by the of his and glorious leader and
talked almost as much as did, and staggered about
and made a spectacle OF Himself generally Which was
very offensive to people Of sense and sensbiiity but
eminenty and faithfully typical Of the Bull Moose po
litical philosophy
Perkins was better exemplar Of the spirit OF the
Roosevelt movement than any other in it. If there
are progressives who dost like Perkins they ought to
get out of the progressive party for Perkins is the es
sence Of the party He cant be put out-unless the
colonel himself is put out and the colonel is the pro
gressiye party.

The Inauguration.

Presdent-elect Wilson has expressed his willingness
to Accommodate himself any sort OF program for the
Inauguration that may be desired by those chiefly con-
eerned in The event spectacle 1t would be en-
tirey agreeable to him to take the oath OF office quietly
on the fourth of March, get down to the great work
that is before him. and along in April or at any other
season of fine weather come cant Mid make speech
and lead procession and do any of the other things
that new president supposed and expected to do If
Mr. Wilson could have his way he probably would omit
the show feature Of the inauguration altogether But
he will do anything to please in little matter Of this
sort Any program for the Inauguration will suit him
And it is good that he win do just as his pred
ecessors have done and that successors viii do the
same. namely take the oath of office deliver his in
augural address, ride from the capital 10 the White
House in state and all the rest on one Ad the same
day.
1t would be good plan to postpone the date of
the loauguration from March to some time in April
when the weather is apt be decent in Washington
and this has been TINT and time again Now is
good time to renew the proposal to set in motion
plan to make il practical by the date the next in
augmaton II can't be made to apply to the inagura-
on of Mr. Wilson, because he has been-or will be next
month elected to take office on the fourth of March
next But would never do to split up the inaugura
ton into series of ceremonies The whole thing must
happen at once. The president could of course
take the oath March and hold back his inaugural
address and postpone the procession to some later date
but it would be mighty POOR spritless show that
would be given on the later date and chief specta
tors would be the army OF odce-seekers gathered in
Washington and camping the trail OF the execu
tive Comparatively few others would care to so up to
the capital and celebration of an installation al
ready six weeks accomplished An the atmosphere would
have been taken it, And then one of the very best
probably the best-feature of the whole affair would
be lacking namely the conjunction Of the outgoing and
the incoming presidents That is the most significant
part of the whole show and it couldn't be kent after
the day fixed by law for the Inauguration There would
not be any outgoing president any incoming presi
dent then. There would be only the president. six
weeks or more his Job and bit tired OF it areadr
perhaps. On inauguration day the president that is
and the president that is be- drive togeher from the
White House to the Capitol That makes fine show
of the transfer of authority in great nation and is
far and away the impressive part Of the inau-
gnra ceremony

cilities Appreciated by Students.

The completion of the new electric
lighting power plant and the extension
of the heating plant. through an ex-
penditure of over 100000, now give

an adequate supply of heat and light
that should meet its needs for many
years to come. For the first time the

The buildings are also supplied with
the quality and amount of light that
under the former meager appropria-
ton they were not able to afford. Pow
er is also supplied for the running of
the machinery in the department OF
manual arts, and an ample supply of
electricity is available for the work in
electrical engineering.
The Carnegie library, with its en-
larged facilities and increased equip
ment, has brought a new atmosphere
of culture to the institution. No body
of students ever showed a more en-
thusiastic appreciation of such opportu-
mites as are now offered in that finest
department of college instruction
namely, the use of books.
The doors are open from 8 a. N. to
$50 p. IN. In the general library and
to 10 p. IN. in the medical room. The
average attendance is from forty to
eighty each hour There have been
0,T36 books borrowed for use dur
