some other diversion during the chap

of the leader's prayer as the result
of the expulsion ' of one of the most
prominent members of (the senior
class yesterday,, on the charge of ir-
reverenoe in chapel.
A favorite diversion among the up
per class men recently has been to
lay small ..wagers on the length of
time that would be spent in the pray

was called to the attention of the un-
verwity authorities, a few days ago.

adgret in the world will be annihll-
a'el " said T. Gilbert Pearson, of the
Aud-ubon Society.
Dr. . W. T. Hornaday, of the -New

the world is losing not only the most
magnificent specimens of bird life in
the extermination, of plumage birds
but also . the greatest foes to - Insect

soon as the water reached the parlor
window my father got a wooden bed
and floated along with the current
until he was rescued." .
"But what has that got to-do with
your being1 a musicajan? " asked the
other with a wondering look.
"Every thing," was the prompt re
