BATTALION NEWS.
Lieut. Pershing will see that every
thing Is In apple-pie order before leav
ing. He Is clearing up the chaos
which met him the first of the week
t In very rapid order.
In making the appointments this
year, as the regulations provide a
special attention was given to the ca
dets' credits, onsequently, many who
did not have their credits up, are to
day disappointed. Well, that's their
misfortune.
Measurements for the new uniforms
was begun Friday morning. The Henderson-Ames
company, the Chicago firm
who have the contract for furnlhing
the military equipments, have a man
here, Mr. Abell, who will remain until
Saturday to take measurements.
The classes in tactics this year will
study the new tactics adapted to the
Craggs-Jorgsen rifle. The drill In the
manuel, however, will continue the
same as heretofore under the old reg
ulations. The new books have not yet
been received, and are not familiar to
anybody yet.
Lieut. Pershing thinks that the uni
versity batalllon is to be congratulated
upon securing such a man as Capt.
John Gullfoyle to tilt the xosltion of
commandant of the cadets. He is a
man of sterling character, be says, ev
ery way fitted to fill the position Just
vacated by himself.
Capt. John Gullefoyle, our now com
mandant, arrived in Lincoln yesterday
(Friday) afternoon. It was impossible
to secure an Interview with him before
going to piess, but he was heard to ex
press himself as being very fai-orably
Impressed with the appearance and ac
lions of the cadets. He remarked that
the drill masters, especially, performed
their duty welL

ephone wires on the campus. Culver

ATHLETIC NOTES.
Our athletic editor has already dub
bed our tenm "The Cup Defenders,"
but where be the cup?
The state university of Missouri re
ceived an appropriation of something
like $15,000 to meet football expenses.
Their share of the expense of that cup
should be forthcoming.
A meeting of the interstate league
must be held before any games are
played this year. There are three sets
of rules, and It must be determined up
on which set Is to be used. Tho prob
ability is that no change will be made
and the rules in vogue last year will
be adopted.
The football captains for 1S95 are:
Harvard, Brewer; Princeton, Len;
Pennsylvania, Williams; Yale, Thome;
Amherst, Pratt; Cornell, Wycoff; Mich
igan, Hennenger; Chicago, Allen; Illi

OBITUARY.
Geo. Tufts, 'Si, died at his home in
Kearney August 5, of quick consump
tion. His death was quite a surprise
to his many university friends who
knew him as a strong, healthy and well
built youth.
Friends of L. G. Thayer will be sorry
to learn of the death of his father las(
summer. Mr. Thayer graduated last
year and the blow falls heavily upon
him, coming as it does at the very
threshhold of life.
Little James Stuart, while bathing In
Cut-off lake, Courtiand beach, Omaha,
was drowned last July. He drilled as
a private in company C last year,
Many friends will miss him who ex
tend their heartfelt sympathy to his
two sisters who came back to college

Archie A. Cartbcart, '9S, while return
ing from attending church near his
home at Talmage, one night last Au
gust, was followed, called from his
buggy and stabbed to death by Wm.
Tate. The murder seems to have been
premeditated. Tate has been held to
stand trial before the district court.

Science Is called the hand maiden of
tho housekeeper but It would be a more
fitting title If It wero denominated the
guardian and caretaker not only of the
household but the world at large. Mass
achusetts and Ohio havo taken nn act
ive part In the Investigation and sup
pression of adulterated foods and many
arrests have been made, appropriate
penalties prescribed and food adultera
tion has been handicapped by such re
strictions as would, with the Intelligent
co-operation of the consumer, speedily
drive such trash from the markets.
Aside from the moral evil of adultera
tion, there Is nn economic phase that
should Interest ?very house keeKr. It
Is scarcely satisfactory to pay for high
grade coffee nnd get burnt starch,
burnt sugar, peas, potato and saccha
rine matter with little more than a sug
gestion of eoffe Coffee value and lean
value are far from equal but there are
thousands of persons who rarely taste
pure coffee, although they pay the high
est market price for a compound that
passes undtr that name. At a grocers'
convention recently held In Brooklyn,
it was asserted that considerably more
than half of the goods sold by grocers
wore made up articles. The Ohio food
commission hns analyzed staple gro
ceries and finds the best (?) spices made
of cocoa nut shells, rice. Hour and ashes.
Bottled lemonade wns made of water,
sugar and tartaric add and contained
no lemon whatever. Jellies were made
of water, grape and cane sugar, ashes
nnd coloring matter. In the field of
medicine the revelations were oven
startling. Tonlrs were made of cheap
liquors, with flavor, coloring matter and
some bitter ingredient, or were full of
corrosive acids and Irritants. A pre
dlgested food contained no food ele
ments of any sort but consisted of drugs

cal experts, encourage diabetic symp
toms and lead straight on to death.
There Is no safety In Ignorance. Only
enlightenment and a determination on
the part of the consumer to have only
good goods when he pays for them will
stop this nefarious tnifllc. The health
authorities, both national and state, are
doing valiant w rv Ice in exposing frauds
of this nature; but the will and knowl
edge of the public must supplement
their efforts. So long as there can be
found a class of persons who will will
ingly buy cheap adulterations, Just so
long will unprincipled makers and deal
ers put them on the market.

A 1'rolilem n I(tlral Economy.
It costs the postofllce department
about J'0226 2-3 to carry the letter for
whose transportation you pay 2 cents.
That Is, the average expenditure of tho
government is J.022C 2-3 for every 2 cents
of revenue received. This excess Is not
charged properly against the letter
carrying account, however. If the
dead head" business done for the gov
ernment and the business done for pub
lishers at a loss was deducted, tho cost
of carrying a letter would be much less
than 2 cents.

Dr. Zakharln, the late czar's physi
cian, has lately devised a new method
ft stanching the flow of blood. Steam
is Injected Into the wound through a
nntheter for a minute or les. The pa
tient, under chloroform, feels neither
pnln nor any evil effects from tho
fleam. Experiments on animals show
that portions of the liver, spleen, kid
neys, lungs, and to a certain extent, of
the brain may be removed without loss
of blood and without fatal results.
