Junell.—There is great excitement at the Pennsylvama State College just now over the SUSpEN- sion of a student and just how it will terminate remains to be seen. Five years ago the suspension of a student at this institution would not have been deemed worthy of passing notice, be- cause the college was unknown outside of Centre county, but now that it has become notorious through the persistent lobbying in the halls of the Legislature by different members of the faculty for large appropriations of money which they finally succeeded in obtaining, the people are anxious to know something about the inner workings of an institu- tion which has cost them so dearly.

The Freshman will grow tired living in the style of the nomadic tribes of Asia, the Sophmores and Ju. niors will get uneasy over the long de lay and the faculty itself will sooner or later awaken to a sense of the fact that ill-prepared lessons and imperfect reci. tations are the only outeciie of this in. reine warfare, The faculty is obstinate, it always was; itis unwilling to admit that it has erred and reluctant to make reparation for a hasty and unjust act.

During the afternoon a stroll through the city gave one an idea of the extent of the flood. It surpassed anything ever known and took all by surprise. The Stores suffered great loss and in many instances business men are bankrupt. Merchants were disposing of goods at any price offered, while much of their stock was totally rained. Buildings and hous 155 were covered Sis muslins, flannels and dress goods hung up to dry. In the stores every body was busy shov. eling out mud or cleaning up generally, The whole town is strewn over with piles of lumber immense saw logs, trees, building and rubbish.
