Signal System Affected.

The new semaphore signal system, which was installed in this vicinity recently, -was thrown out of commits sion by a, bolt of lightning early in the morning, causing engineers on passen- ger and freight trains considerable confusion.

OFFICER ASSISTED BY VICTORIAN
Assailant and Comrade Pay Fines and Heavy Costs in Court-Signal Sys-
  Paul's Lawn F'ete Tomorrow.

Claiming that colored men are en- titled to as much but no more respect than white men when allowed to as- sociate with them in public places of this vicinity, which privilege is denied them in their own states, Prosecuting Attorney William H. Gibney recom- mended in the Berlin police court this morning that Philip Claybrook and Peter Blue, both colored, be sent to jail for assaulting Officer Harry Chap man in kensington last evening, be- cause of fancied grievances The z prisoners barely escaped jail terms when they were able, with great diff ficulty, to borrow enough money to pay their ten dollar fines and costs
 According to the testimony of wit nesses, Blue resisted arrest in a Ken sington saloon last evening, striking Officer Chapman in the race a number of times before the latter succeeded with the aid of a trolley motorman and several townspeople, in hand cdfing him. His comrade, Claybrook, is said to have grabbed a chair and attacked those assisting the officer in making his arrest. Peace was not re- stored in Kensington until both of-
 
 lookup.
 When he appeared in court this sMorning Claybrook was inclined to be saucy in his answers to the prosecut- ing attorney. After being reprimand- ed and reminded that the matter was not so big joke as he seemed to think, he decided to be less evasivc in his answers, admitting statements which he had denied previously.
 The row is said to have started when Blue f1ared up at the use of the 1word "nigger" by William Luby while engaged in a discussion with Patrick Maloney on the Irish Home Rale situa- tion and the present condition of the , south in this country. The colored man became very abusive and threat ened dire things. Officer Chapman, who happened to be present, explained to Blue that the remark was not made as an insult to him, but was unable to convince him. Before the constable had finished his statement he received "a blow on the forehead. He hastened to inform his assailant that he was a custodian of the peace, demanding that he either become more orderly or submit to arrest.
 At this juncture, it is said that Claybrook, who had been sitting nearby, leaped to his feet and wiele- >.ed chair at everyone who came near him as he attempted to release his comrade. Still fighting like mad, both Were forced out of the saloon door into the street. A passing mo- torman, who is a special officer on

TO FIGHT TYPHOID.
State University to vaccinate
Students Against Fever
Free of Charge.
FOLLOWING ARMY EXAMPLE
Uncle Sans Soldiers Are Now Prac-
ticaIIy Immune From the Disease
Through inocculation.

Free typhoid vaccination is offered
now to students of the University of
Kansas.
The principle of the inocculation is
to accustom the system to com batting
dead germs so that, when necessary,
it may be fitted to destroy live ones
before they can multiply. An injec-
ton consists of one-tenth of a MILL
gram of a powder composed of these
germs suspended in salt solution. In
order to prepare this powder, typhoid
germs are grown on a solid culture
medium for thirty-six hours. At the
end of this time the germs are washed
and sensitized by contact with the
serum from an immunized rabbit. 1t
is this new feature of the process
which minimizes the after effects of
the vaccination. On the following day
the germs are killed with alcohol,
ground and washed
1t is the present custom in the
United States army to yaccinate for
typhoid every three years. The sta
tistics for last year show seven eases
of typhoid in the army in contrast to
$50 before the time of compulsory vac
cinaticn. No deaths were reported,
while among civilians, twenty on an
average out of every 100000 die from
this disease.

A TRIBUTE TO DEAN MARVIN
cheering Professor to Kansas
State University.

To show appreciation for a lifetime
spent in the advancement of engineer
ing at the University of Kansas, stu
dents, who at some time or other in
his teaching career of forty years
have gone with their troubles to Prof.
Frank Olin Marvin, have given to the
university a bronze memorial of the
veteran teacher of engineering. Dean
Marvin is the only living member of
the K U. faculty who has been hon
ored by a memorial
In his time at the university, Dean
Marvin has seen the institution, Of
which he was part, grow from two
buildings, North College and Fraser
Hall, to fourteen, not counting auxil-
larry buildings such as the power plant
and the heating plant When he took
charge of the engineering courses, he
had one senior enrolled. Last spring
more than fifty students received d.
plomas from the engineering school.
In 1891 he recognized the courses In
engineering into a school distinct from
the remainder of the university.
And it was in Dean Marvin's study
that the sculptor, Jorgen G. Dreyer of
Kansas City, worked while he was try
ing to catch the expression of the
scholar and work it into the damp
clay. Daily the veteran engineer and
the sculptor talked together about pic
lures and art and, in moments of de-
light, the dean revealed his homely
side. Mr.. Dreyer caught it as it flash
ed out and now the bronze cast is said
to be most human Interpretation of
Dean Marvin'S character.
The cast is at the university waiting
to be mounted. AS soon as that can
be done an installation service will be
held in Marvin Hall and it will be I'M
