( Special to THE BEE. ] The most interesting feature of the York college comraoncomont is the dedica tion of the now college building. This in stitution was founded but two years ngo , nnd now , by the sacrinco nnd devotion of tno public sniritod mon of the city and county iiud of the members and friends throughout the stale of the United Brethren church , which organization owns and controls the college , n magnificent and imposing structure of brick and stone , containing all tbo modern improvements , has been orcctod and fur- nlsuod. At half past 10 o'clock this morning n largo audlotico gathered in the college chapel to witness tbo dedicatory exorcises of this building. The orator of the occasion was Dr.V. . M. Bcarasboar , president of the Iowa Agricultural college. In the beginning of the address ho ro for rod to tjio birth occas ions of n buman being , a community , a church , n nation nnd an institution In such a way as to form n fitting nnd pleasing in troduction to the subject , "Something of a Lost Art , " or "How to Mould n Man. " After making a short but pungent compari son of some ancient and moaorn methods in education ho proceeded to discuss in a frash and masterly manner the vital aims in scholastic training. Ho presented in a thoroughly original and ingenious manner the orthodox doctrine of clovatod manhood as the supreme end of. the school. The address - dross abounded in striking but chaste imag ery. The style was original and inimitable. No epitome or discrlptioa can do Justice to his effort. It was pervaded throughout by the subtle but unmistakable. Inlluonco of a personality truly unique. The muslo of the occasion was furnished by the college choir. Prayers were offered by Rov. Duke Slavens of tiio Methodist Episcopal church and Dr. Boardshqar. After the dedicatory prayer the lioys of tbo college were presented by Dr. Boardshear to Judge A. C. Montgomery , president of the board of trustees. The judge responded with a ringing and appro priate address. Altogether the occasion was ono of unusual interest and will probably prove to be ono of moro than a local historical interest. _ _ _ _ Entertaining the Drugglsta.

I am n regular patron of the street cars , and I am both surprised and annoyed lo observe iho Insolent manner in which many of tbo conductors treat a man when tboy are re quested to stop. Notwithstanding the fact that there Is a sign In every cur cautioning passengers against getting on or off the cars whllo In motion , whenever a request Is mada of these dignified individuals to stop the re quest is either ignored or complied with in the most surly manner. I am not tbo only ono who has observed this disagreeable habit of the conductors , but I could If necessary furnish the names of a score of reputable cltisons who bavo received similar treatment to that of which I complain. Whllo I do not wish to ohargo that the nu merous accidents that have recently occurred on the street car lines nro duo to this peculiar conduct on tbo part of tbo servants ot the street car company , I do think that tlioy would bo considerably lessoned If the con ductors and grlpmon wquld bo moro willing and atlonllvo In tbo matlor f slopping when roqucstod by passengers s'6 to do.

[ Special Telegram to TUB BEE.J An interesting rumor which is diOlcult to substantiate in this city but which has several corroborative facts in its support is to th o effect that Mr. Blaine has paid over the cum of $ cr ,000 to Mrs. Novins-Blaino for the whole corre spondence which was addressed to her bear ing the ox-socrotury's signaiuro and ot Mrs. Blaine and of young Jamas G. Blnino , jr. , in connection with the unfortunate marrlago of young Blaino. These letters were sent to Mrs. Novlns- Blulno nt the time of bor sickness In Now York and their cbaractor was such ns to affect the publlo mind very unploasuntlv In the ovcnt of their publication , it will bo ro- inoinborod that at the time of tbo trial ot the Novins-Blaino divorce case Mr. Blaine , sr. , gave a very causllo letter rofloot- ing severely on Mrs , Nevlns-Blutno and Father Ducy , the priest who performed the marrlago ceremony. This called forth tbo response from Airs , Novlns-Ulamo , In which sbo assorted that unless the then BOC- rotary of state made n publlo retraction of the cbarpcs against her she would wllhm ton days publish iho whole of the correspondence 'In her possession from the Blaine family. This was never carried out. It Is now learned that Mr. Blaine at once took stops to regain possession of this corrospondcneo and negotiations were catered Into tolnduco Mrs. Blaine to plvo up tbo letters. The pricoaaid to havn bcoii put upon thorn was 8100,000. But after u protracted correspondence between twoon the representative * of both sides Ibis sum was reduced to $05,000. , Mr. Blaine had not this sum nvallublo at the time , nnd in response to representations from him , a consultation of u half dozen or so of his intimate personal , political and business frlunds was called , at which the wftblu amount was subscribed and banded over to Mr. Blaino.
