Old Not Resign as Demanded by President Dabney. Cincinnati, May 26. The restgna Hon of Professor H. H. Bawden from the chair ot philosophy in the Untvers lty of Cincinnati not having been presented as demanded by Preslden Dabney, that chair has been formally declared vacant by the university trus tees. In a statement Issued today the trus tees explain that their action was tak ea unanimously for the following rea sons: "1. Professor Bawden camo hert under false pretensions, having boon dismissed from Vassar college on sub stantlally the same grounds as men tioned under number 2. He acknow edges this in his letter of .May 3, pub lished In the newspapers. "2. His manner of life, as well his teaching, is destructive of the family, the foundation of human so ciety. "3. After receiving the president's letter asking for his resignation Pro fessor Bawden came to the president office and threalened him with publi cation of his story and his opinions on the subjects if he did not withdraw the letter. This he afterward did, tc the scandal of the university and the violation of public decency and good morals." A Divided Answer. The country mind sometimes works slowly, nlthotigli with mi etivlablo weight nnd mviirwy. lint the country mode of expression Is usually to the point. Even its pauses serve their turn. They are always of rhetorical value. An old lishertiian sat by the sea wall sklunliiK eels which vcre that forenoon to be packed in Ice and sent to a city market. A young woman visitor In town, stood by watching (he unusual occupation nnd unite fuscimit cd by the ease ami dexterity with which it was can-led on. At length sue felt the necessity of 'making talk. "lint do you get fur eels?" she asked. "Nothln"," returned the old man em phatically, stripping off a skin. Then with the same precision and lightning like haste he "peeled" another and another, leaving his visitor to wonde at the eccentricity wlilch prompted him to take so much trouble tmrownnl ed. It was only after slie bad given up the question as a bad job that he calmly fin Is hod his sentence "to what I'd ought to." How Sleep It Caused. Just how sleep is brought about is one of the unsolved problems that have been before science since the earliest times. There are three general ex planations of sleep. They are called the circulatory, the chemical and the histological theories. The llrst two have sulMlivlslons. The histological theory is now pretty well accepted. The nervous system Is made up of thousands f nerve cells. These arc connected like n huge net by nerve ele ments, little branching libers. Each nerve element is structurally Interde pendent, but functionally dependent. Neurologists tell us that the fibers be come disconnected In sleep that la, each nerve cell is separated from Its nelghliors by the elements, or connect ing llliers, becoming disconnected. The nerve cells build up themselves while separated, as they have no messages from the body to bear to the brain. As the sleeper regains consciousness the nerve libers unite and once more begin their duties. St. I-ouis Post Dispatch. Taken at His Word. Master Walter, aged five, had eaten the soft portions of Ills toast nt break- fust and piled the cruets on his plate, "When I was a liiihj Imiv," remarked his father, who sai opposite him, always ato the crusls of my toast." "Did you like them?" inquired his offspring cheerfully. "Yes," replied the parent. "You may have these," said Master Walter, pushing bis plate across the table.

DEATH OF A VENERABLE PHYSICIAN. In November last death claimed one of the venerable physicians of Western New York. Dr. Alonzo Wiltse of Dele van, Cattaraugus County. Mr. WiltBO had been a practising physician for sev enty years.

Returning to his homo with such sad information he was sparred to make a desperato analysis and study of Blight's disease, with the result that he formulated a remedy which com pletely cured him mid gave him an ad ditional lease of thirty years of lifo, or until the age of !M years, as mentioned above. Mr. Wiltse in his practice thereafter used the remedy with great success.
