born seven centuries too late. For al
that early date. according 20 Henry

governing body.
THE Emperor Frederick Barbaros-
sas vino was endowed with soant demo
cratic eympathies had tried TO put
the government OF the University Of
Bologna In the hands Of the prOfes
sors, says MIR. Sedewick, but his sys
tenn did not succeed. Little by httle,
and not without struggles. the students
got the upper hand before the end of
the century their domination was well
established. and the professors we're
obliged to take the oath OF obedience
to them.
The university was very large. stu
dents came from all western Europe;
It was computed that the number in
residence at one time was as high as
ten thousand They were of all ages
from sixteen to forty some of them
we're men of wide experience, many
were benefced clergymen."
In important matters the student
body met In general assembly. They
also appointed rectors for each guild
which was q club of students from one
particular province. The rectors act
ed for the students in most matters
These rectors had civil jurisdiction
over the members of the guilds and ac-
iuired jurisdiction over the professors
when they took the oath OF obedience,
end had virtual authority before that
owing to the students power of with
holding fees or putting a ban on any
Get of courses.
IN dealing with the municipal gov
ernment. the power of the university
lay In the fact that il had no building,
no property. and could leave Bologna

students forced the towns to terms BY
emigration. Lectures were held in a
professors house or in a hired apart

One similarity with things as they
now are was that students lodged

The courses were long. FIVE or six

the end of the century. by the city But
the professors acquired no greater
freedom by this new system, for they
were elected 10 the endowed chairs

POLICE COURT NOTES.
Negro Alleges he was Robbed-Delin-
quent Husband Threatened With
the Roads.

There were but two cases before
the Police Court this morning. James
Jefferson. colored, had caused Mar
tin Ford, colored, to be arraigned on
suspicion of stealing over 81 from
him. According to Jefferson, he had
received check for his wages from
the contractors VINO are building the
dam for the Alexandria Water Com
pany at Bancroft. He came to this
city and had It caShed in a saloon in
the western section of the city. He
expended dollar and half in liq'
uor, and later found that his pocket
book, containing over $2l, had been
taken from his hip pocket. The
pocketbook was later found on the
sidewalk in front of the saloon. He
alleged that Ford was with him
when he entered another saloon and
he was confident he took his money.
Ford, in his defense, said Jefferson
spent $3.50 in liquor in the first sa-
loon, and that in the second saloon
which they visited several other men
were standing around.
In the absence of evidence, Justice
Cation dismissed Fora.
A white man residing in the wes-
tern section of the city was next
brought in. His wife was the COM
plainant. She and her son alleged
that the mind of the paterfamilias
had become confused by the eXces-
sive use of liquor, that he was abu-
sive and threatening to the members
of his household.
The defendant was penitent and
when asked by justice which course
would he prefer to behave him
self towards his family and renounce
liquor, or serve six months on the
roads, he announced his determina-
tion to turn over new leaf. The
accused was then dismissed with the
assurance that should he reappear to
anaWer similar charges in the flu
ture he would be turned over to road
guards.

NEWS !OF THE DAY.

Existence of what he termed
"tommyrot songs" in church hymnals
was deplored by the Rev. G. F.
Sutherland, D. D., missionary editor
of the publications of his church, in
the course of an address on Methods
of Missionary Instruction" delivered
yesterday afternoon at the afternoon
session of the Sunday School Irsti-
tute of the Methodist Episcopa!
Church for the Washington district
of the Baltimore conference, held in
McKendree Church, Washington.
Nearly one hundred Sunday school
workers, ministers, and DELEGATES
were present. "The tommy-rot' songs
that are sometimes sung in our
churches are worse than no songs at
ALL" said DR.. Sutherland. "I can find
no expression that better character
izes them. l hope the time will soon
come when these songs that sing US
into selfshness-the 1 and me- kind
will be replaced in our hy1nnal by
the strong songs that breathe
