SAVES NEPHEW'S LIFE
BY GIVING HIS BLOOD

The life Of James shannon, son of

TRANSMISSION came from Policeman AL
exander P. /Coughlin, another uncle.

his nephew is a namesake, to undergo

a quart Of blood was taken, left the
hospital after spending one day there.
The operation was performed Friday.

COL ORADO'S DRY VOTE IS
CONTESTED In COURTS BY
DENVER ON SPECIAL ACT
STUDENTS
ARE IN MAJORITY
AT CAMBRIDGE

Cambridge, Eng, Jan. 3.-Cam-
bridge has practically ceased to be a
domestic institution, and its academic
life is sustained almost entirely by
alien and colonial students. This re
| semblance to, a foreign university,
planted in classic confines of the an
Gent seat of learning is intensifie d
by the presence here of the faculty
and some of the student body of the
University of Lo1vain.
With the exception of the medical
school, none of the colleges has more
than handful of British students.
Perhaps the greatest sufferer from
the war has been Corpus Christi Col
lege, which does not admit men of
co1ored races to it's rolls. This col
1ege has seven undergraduates in resi-
dence and since most of it's sons are
either with the military forces or do
ing government work of some sort,
the students and their Instructors dine
in their own quarters.
Each college has a great hall OF
baroniaI appearance and capacity
where its members dine in state, the
master with his dons at tables on a
dais while below on the main floor
the undergraduates gather about long
tables. Most of these halls, formerly
centers of, TRADITIONAL English good
cheer are now places of gloom where
by dim candle light, enforced on ac-
count of Zeppelin peril, a few OF the
elderly faculty members gather with
tlleir alien and crippled student BODY
in a pathetic effort to keep alive a
glorious tradition.
Trinity with it's normal enrolment
of six hundred students does not show
the ravages of war as much as the
other colleges, but this does not mean
that it has not been patriotic as the
others. but on account of its enroll
rierlt far in the lead of any or It's III
EaIs and the further fact that it num-
bers many aliens among its under
graduates, the college can still muster
a. hundred men. Headed by DR.. But

ter Of the college, who is assisted by
Vice-rnaster Henry jackson, O. NJ. one
on the greatest of Cambridge teachers,
the faculty and men of Trinity gather

to .uphofd the continuity of Cam
BRIDGES royal college. But q fear Of
a. lapse in the continuity necessary to
carry on the precious traditions OF
the university is in every heart, and
sometimes finds expression In grim
determination to hold on at any cost

entertain such fears is provided by the

nected to keep alive enough or the

Population of Shanghai
Is Rapidly Increasing

: Shanghai, Jan. 3-Shanghai now
has a foreign population of 1850, a
gain of 1883 over the last census,
which was taken in 1910. The official
census which the city has just COM
p1eted shows that the increase in the
foreign population since 1890 has been
1878.
Japanese outnumber any other ma
tionality in Shanghai. There are now
1859 of that race in this city. The
British come second with 1922. The
Portuguese population numbers 1923.
Americans rank fourth with 1907.
Germans have 1.155. Indians rank
sixth with a total of 1909. There are
361 Russians and Pa Frenchmen, Il 81
spaniards, 145 Danes, 123 Austro-
Hungarians, la Italians and 108
Turks. The remainder of the foreign
is divided among Norweg-
ians, Swiss, Swedes, Dutchmen,
Greeks, Persians, Koreans Belgians,
Egyptians, Armenians,
Brazilians, Montenegrins and Bulgar-
fans None of these nations has as
many as 100 citizens in Shanghai.
These figures do not include the
French concession, and a very consid-
erabie foreign population living in the
outside roads under the control of the
French council.

REDUCTION OF
PET ROL EUM IS
ABOVE RE CORD
Geological Survey Estimate
Shows It To Be Greater
Than Ever.

Preliminary estimates Of the total
Yield of petreleum' for 1915 indicate a
slight increase over the record break
ing yield in 1914. This condition
does not agree with the currently re-
ported reason for the exceptionally
high prices now prevailing for motor
fuel.
As a result of the overload put on
the transporting and refining phases
Of the petroleum industry by the ex-
cess output of crude petroleum. in
1914, the year 1915 may be charac-
terized as a period Of readjustTne11t IN
which production activity was pur-
peseIy retarded as far practicable
The small increase therefore is more
Significant than the simple figures
suggest
According to John d. Northrop of
the United States Geological Survey
the marketed production Of petroleum
in the United states in 1915 approx
mated 267.4o0. 900 barrels, and, the
total yield appropriated 291. 4O0. 900
barrels, about "a, 900. 900 barrels of
oil brought to the surface during the
year being placed in field storage by

The stocks of crude petroleum held
by pipe line companies at the end of
1915 eamovnted to approximately
approximately 5O,000,000 barrels
greater than at the end of 1914.
Prices.
Prices of crude petroleum at the
wells were uniformly low in all fields
from January to August when the
permanent decline of the Cushing
