Chase inclined to the same opinion
until afterwards. 1t happened this
way: Last season while she was play
ing in Salt Lake, City, she wanted to-
wear fetching little curl just behind
her right Aear, hut she hated to curl her
own luxurious brunette hair, and, SO
added false curl by means of some
patent adhesive gum. One night the
leading man, thinking to add an eff
fective little piece of business to his
part, began to toy with the pretty curl.
Imagine his horror when it came off.
Miss Chase managed to preserve her
equanimity, and, dropping the curl
over the back of a settee, went on with
her part as though nothing had hap
pened, but safe in her dressing room.

The season for hog cholera is here.
Apparently the disease has gotten a
good start and is spreading rapidly,
Judging from the reports that have
been in the city from some of the
neighboring farms in Cass and ad-
Joining counties.
Local veterinarians have received
numerous calls to attend cases in the
country where hog cholera has been
reported. This morning DR.. ]. w.
Durham was called to the Lewis farm
where a number of cases are reported
to, have, broken out in the, last twenty
four hours.
1t is sasexpected there will be much
hog cholera as aaresult of the extreme
hot wave that has swept the state In

PHYSICAL

The physical education made obli-
gatory in the appropriate depart
ment of the College of the City OF
New York Is effecting wonderful re-
suits.
The theory according to the ar
ticle in tho American Magazine, is
that the "City does not care to ex-
pend its funds in educating those
who are not inclined to car for the
selves-that health is an asset to
the state"
All students are compelled to sub
init to a health examination and to
accept such treatment rs prescribed.
Consequently in a recent year 1900
cases of decayed teeth. SIS cases
of defective sight, 225 of enlarged
tonsils, 80 of Trachoma, rs OF
heart disease, and others less COM
mon were treated.
Directions of the physical di--
rector must be followed out, and
the courses ordered r given the
same credits in the curriculum as
history or mathematics.
Glass work in the gymnasium be-
gins with the third year, at least
once a week. Physical exercise is
in the ours with lectures
and oral teaching. At least once
a week a warm shower bath, fol
lowed by a dip in the great swim
ming tank, Is ordered. Every boy
is required to have learned to swim

fore entering college. Last year
compulsory swims numbered 37,S16,
but voluntary swims, 99.384. Six

gan. DR.. Storey says hat now, at
the beginning of the fall term an
increasing number OF students pre-
sent themselves with sunburned
