Columbia Lays Ghost
When Building Is Raced

The Faculty Club at Columb mbia Uni
versi-y, the last remaining building Of
the group that once formed the Bloom
ingdale Asylum, is being torn down.
and it is believed that the university
ghost will pass with it. The CHOSE
has haunted the subterranean passages
of the university, but is believed 70
have made its headquarters in the for
mer asylum building.
It is the ghost of a student who pc
came crazy from studying too hard
and was sent TO Bloomingdale almoss
half a century ago. The unfortunate
youth was obsessed with the idea that
he was immortal in 4 physical sense
and when other lunatics questioned his
theory he put 1t TO the test by COM
niJting suicide.
At intervals since the university sue
ceeded the asylum his ghost has laid
violent hands upon persons using tho
suoterraneaa passage, seizing them BY
the arm Or shoulder and shouting in
their ears that he was immortal.
The ghosts most recent appearance
was just about a year ago, when hs
seized s. F. Covert, a sophomore, in
the underground passage connecting
Fairwea ther and Science halls. The
imprints OF the ghosts fingers showed
black and blue on Covert's arm for
aeveral days.

as Great Britain at the other sessions
generally led in replying to all such
formal statements.
Viviani Takes Floor
But for once Mr.. Balfour was not
the first to answer. After the applause
for Mr.. Lodge had subsidized NJ Viviani
rose to signify Frances adherence to
the treaty. When he had done, Mr..
Balfour proceeded to discuss the four
power treaty and explain the reasons
for the abolition of the Anglo-J apa-
nese alliance.
The members OF the Chinese delega-
ton made no attempt to conceal their
pleasure when, from the mouth Of
Arthur Balfour himself, they heard
that the Anglo-Japaaess alliance was,
to all intents and purposes, null and
void. 1t looked as though the news
sounded like sweet music TO the Chi
rese. White teeth flashed in smiles as
ar. Balfour in his precise fashion
pointed out Just why the Anglo-Japa-
nese contract was no more.
In the Japanese corner of the hail.
where were sitting dozens Of neatly
dressed Japanese, all in we'll tailored
cutaways. wearing tall collars with
in-hands. with little white Innings to
THEN black waistcoats, there was
deccTous but sundued applause.
Dozens Of hands ciapped politely, but
there was not as much cleaning OF
teeth as among the Chinese. Through
it all Admiral Kato sat with an in
scrutable face, solemnly winking as his
interpreter whispered a translation in
his ear. Prince Tokugawa, always
cheerful and contented. sat back and
watched the speakers carefully. and
when his turn came, rose and III good
English expressed Japan's pleasure at
the new arrangement.
Ricci Listens Intently
Among the Europeans none watched
so intently as Ambassador Ricci OF
Italy, who, while he speaks but little
English, listened with rapt attention TO
every speaker.
Baron de Cartier, of Belgium, always
the best dressed man at the confer
ence, watched the proceedings with
keen interest, and when his time came
to reply spoke briefly in French of the
satisfaction Of his country at the ar
rangement. Near him sat Jonkheer
Van Karnebeek, of Holland, dark
haired, dark eyed and dapper.
When finally ali the nations had
given their assent, the audience, which
had begun to grow restive on account
Of the time consumed in translating
English speeches into French and vice
versa. saw that the end was in sight.
Following the habit acquired by much
theatergolng, they began to reach for
their hats and coats before the Secre-
tary had announced that motion for
adjournment was IN order, and even
succeeded in bringing tho session un-

fer the exits as the motion was for
mally made.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.--Upon leav-
ing the conferences I am taking back
to Europe the impression of having
seen big man and big thing.
The big man Is Mr.. Charles E.
Hughes.
1t is he, one feels, who wanted this
conference. who prepared it. who car
ried it on his shoulders. And if his
vision had been less penetrating, his
mind less deliberate, his shoulders less
broad, perhaps the matter would have
stopped half way. But he had insight,
courage and tenacity. And we now see
the goal at the turn of the road.
It is customary in nearly every
country to Joke about the invasion OF
the political field by lawyers. This ia
both childish and unfair. Many a
time in the course of her troublous
history. France has had lawyers at the
or protected her. Theirs, who in 1871
liberated French territory, was law
yer. Gambetta. who famed back hex
fame, vas a lawyer. Raymond poin-
care, who during the four years Of an
atrocious WAT sustained her with his
energy, was lawyer. And Alexandra
Milierand, who represents her to-day,
is lawyer. The great merit of lawyers,
their superiority over professors, Is
that they deal with facts instead Of
dealing with theories. The world is
weary of theories. 1t reckons with
facts alone. If realities that bear the
stamp of justice are brought to it, it
rejoices, because it yearns for reality
as much as for justice.
The imperishable merit OF Mr..
Hughes will be to have understood
this. When he appeared before the
world court he had convened he spoke
of right. justice, idcalisn, peace, civili-
cation. but at che same time he brought
q substantial reality, practical means
of serving civilization, peace, idealism,
justice and right. One may discuss,
argue, cudgel ones brain in vain. A
fact remains fact, and the great.
outstanding fact here is that when the
Washington conference is over there
will be 100000 tons less Of warships
in This world of ours--in other words,
100000 tons less Of machines de-
vised for killing, destroying and sink
ing. Where is the pacifist who has
ever obtained such result before
What disarmament conference can
boast Of such balance sheet?
And the conference will have been
a big thing, very big thing.
I do not say that everything about It
was perfect, that its machinery could
not have been quicker, that it did not

Hard Surfaced Roads
Chadwick Gazette)

In the discussion of hard surfaced
roads, it is noticeable. that no partic-
ular preference is named. No single
kind of hard surfaced road has its
predominance of advocates and this
only emphasizes. the fact that hard
surfaced road building in this coun-
try is yet in the experimental stage
We suppose as one paper suggests,
the matter would be left with the
state highway department to make a
choice, as it would do in selecting the
highways to be so converted. In
either instance that would be no easy
job. For instance, New York state
has brick-paved, cement, macadam-
lied and number Of other hard sur
faced highways and the most suit
able for our state and the most per-
manent face with our weather con-
ditions to meet, is a question hard
to decide. In this connection we
mention an instance that came to our
notice where cement road job was
let to contractors for 100000 to $751;
600 per mile and the road built cost
from 100000 to $125,OOO
