' la tba opaai&g ad draaa before tba stndonto of Fsnsas nmV versity last week the apaakar took tor his thema the proposition that western youth should ba educated la western noUegse. Hie argument waa almost un nsrissary. Chancellor Snow, of tba Xanana university, baa looked Into thia subject somewhat. Qa baa found that of aevea Taneaa boya and girls who go to college, only ona seeks aa eastern In stitution. Kansas baa about T.0OO of ber youth engaged thu year lathe pur suit of higher education. Fewer con siderably than 1000 are In eastern eol leges. Tbe chancellor's investigations bear upon the slgna of the times. Kan sas baa II denominational colleges, and the number of students attending them this year averages about 100. The Kansas university opens with an at tendance 100 In advanoe of laat year, good evidence of the Improved times. The enrollment Is 1,000, and will reach 1,100 probably. In the agricultural and the normal are 8,000 atudenta. Alto gether there are In the higher Institu tlons of the state at the preeent time. the chancellor believes, fully 8,000 stu dents. His examination baa failed to show more than 300 attending the prin cipal colleges of the east. Making al lowance for all other scattering Kansas students) and for the girls who have teen sent to eastern colleges especlaJIy devoted to their aex. the chancellor Is latiaflcd that the number of Kansas students In colleges outside of tbe state will not exceed 1,000. "There Is considerable whooping cough prevalent nowadays," remarked an old lady, a resident of Weat Vlr ginia, to a reporter, "and there are a number of cures, ail of them of some value, no doubt. Dut the eimpleat rem cdy that I know of la warm milk juat aa It come from the cow. I waa raised la the country, where the remedy waa eay to get. There are a number of cows kept la the city, and It la not vary dim caft to get worm milk, If the proper effort la made. Warm milk Is aa al most certain euro, and it baa tbe advan tags over most of the other remedies In that It is a food as wall. I don't know that any particular quantity la aoei mry, my rule being to let the ehllddrlak aa much aa It dasiraa. Tba child should get It at leaat twioe a day, morning and erecting." A young man weat up recently to bla examlnatlona in a great university. Juat before ba began, says Laslte'a Weekly, hia companions aaw him searching in hia pockets wildly. Then ho murmured in despair: "What shall X do? It is goos!" "What Is gons?" soma ona asksd. "My lucky stone. ahall never pass la the world. Upon Inquiry it waa found that among ths four or five scores of young men pres ent several wore some sort of a charm upon their person in order to aeeure success In their examination. Too many young men of the rising genera tion depend on luck to carry them through, when proper exercise of their brains would make aa assured success for them. A Kentucky physician suggests thst transfusion of the blood of the colored men may be tried as a remedy againal yellow fever. The negro, it is well known, hss been rendered immune to this disease by generations of exposure, and It is asserted that thia condition Is due to the phagocytes and planocitee la the Afrlcaa'e blood, which, being In jected Into aamtbera blood, will make him also unassailable by tba disease. A striking Illustration of ons of tbe changes that have taken place la this country Is the fact that a posse of Chey enne Indiana has been trailing a band of white train robbers In tbe weat. Probably the red men have overtaken the paleface outlaws by this time 'and csused them to meditate on tbe some times queer reversal of sltustions through the advancement of civilisa tion. Mrs. ITanna Oould'a band of CO wom en to aall from Now York December 1 for Dawson City is composed, according to their chaperon, of "widows and bachelor maid en a." It la extremely probable that in a very- abort time after their arrival on the Klondike such des ignation will ceaae to ba applicable to any of tbeaa female argonauts.

Judge Ladd held that: "The make of the shirt or the taste of tbe wearer maj be such as to require some kind of a button, or stud.

California's largest nugget was is inches long, 6 wide and thick, weighed IDS pounda and was worth ftS.000. Australia, -largest weighed M pounds, and Chill holds the record with one of 400 pounds. Tbe first piece of gold picked up by Marshall wben he made his fsmout discovery in California waa a grain worth 90 cento, but the second was a little $5 nugget. A United States soldier, whll drink ing at a email stream in California, found the first largs nugget in that re gion. It weighed 9s pounds, and caused a great sensation throughout the coan- It is reported that the recent hoot ing of striking miner at Hasleton, Fa., baa been made the basic of a claim of indemnity by the Austrian govern ment, on the ground that tbe Hungar ians who were killed were Austrian sub jects. Secretary Sherman has made in quiries of tbe state authoriUee aa to the clrcomstancea. The United States has several times recognised its responsibil ity for injury don to foreign subjects, the most recent instance being the ease of several Italians who were lynched In Louisiana. But in aoch cases, hitherto, the vlctlma were killed by mob; in the nasleton case they were shot by deputy sheriffs. We are told that Andree, aa he waa abont to depart on his polar balloon, waa asked bow soon tidings from blm might be expected.
