COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY.
Broad Plans for Evening Class Begin
ning Next Fall.
Evening clauses for wage-workers will
be one of the new undertakings of Colum
bia university beginning In September. It
is proposed then to extend the operation
of prlnalples, which have been so success
ful In the case of the summer session so
s to provide ol asses and laboratory work
In the evening at the niilverslty, and both
In the evening and during the day In
other parts of the city, aa well aa In
northern" New Jersey and Westchester
county for the benefit of those who are
not able to avail themselves of the regular
courses of Instruction at the university.
In particular, evening classes will be
organized where wage-workers aa well
as those who are engaged professionally
or otherwise, during the day, may obtain
the best Instruction whioh the university
may offer.
Requests for Columbia to enter upon
work of this kind have been Increasingly
numerous during recent years. In parti
cular, there Is a demand that the uni
versity shall organize classes In law for
the benefit of the many students of law
In northern New Jersey. The center of
this Instruction will probably be In Newark.
Clasres In various branches of chemistry
and in electrical science will probably be
organized in both Newark and Peterson.
It is expected that college Instruction of
the highest type will be offered in the
evening in the city of New York at a
convenient down town point, which may
be reached by subway and tunnels from
all parts of the city as well as from
Brooklyn and New Jersey.
The field to be covered by this extension
teaching will be very broad. There will
be classes organised In languages, litera
ture, history, economics and politics; In
various sclentiflo subjects, including eleo
trlcal and meohanlcal engineering; In archi
tecture: In music and fine arts; In pre
ventive medicine argl sanitary solence; in
manual training and the household arts;
in teaching and in law. For this work
a large staff of professors and lecturers
will be appointed, chosen In part from
the present teaching staff of tho university,
and In part from others with espeoial
fitness for work of this kind.
SCHOOL LUNCH ONE CENT,
Economical and Satisfying? Service ia
Boston School.
A heaping portion of Indian pudding
with milk and two crackers wa the
menu for the 1 cent lunch served at the
Wlnthrop school, Boston, and as long as
the service proves as sucoessful as it has
In the post the lunchea will be continued
at 10:80 each morning, ao that none of
the little children who come to school
with appetites half satisfied need go home
famished.
The high cost of living, which has shaved
down the breakfasts at home almost to a
minimum operates to send some children
to school with lnsuflclent nourishment to
do Justice to themselves in their work.
At the Wlnthrop school, relates the
Boston Post, it was decided that any plan
that seemed to Include charity would prove
a failure, as children are the quickest
persons to form class barriers snd look
down on their playmates who may not be
able to have enough food at home.
Miss Emmellne F. Torrey, teacher of do
mestic science, believes that she has
solved the problem in the 1 cent lunches
served each morning. If the cost of prepa
ration and service were added it would be
Impossible to make the meal otherwise
than charitable, so Miss Torrey has a class
of eighteen girls, ranging in age from 10
to IS, prepare the dishes and serve them.
Thus the cent that the children pay covers
the entire cost.
The cup of pudding and crackers, to
gether with the milk, which was served
to each hungry pupil, had enough nutri
ment in It to equal nearly three large
slices of bread, with butter. The quality,
MIsb Torrey said, was well suited for the
needs of the children.
All the teachers in the schoolsay that
tho tentative working of the plan thus far
has been to provide much more wide
awake children after the lunch hour and
to do away with the eagerness to have
school dismissed.
Chancellor MseCrsckea's Retirement,
The attainment of seventy years of life
seems to be more and more the voluntary
limit of active service among prominent
educators, says the Boston Transcript.
Tbe latest to announce his Intention of
retiring at thstge ia Chancellor Mac
Crocken of New York university, who will
be 70 years old the iWth of next Septem
ber, and for a quarter of a century has
been at the head of that Institution. Dur
ing that time the faculties of the uni
versity have grown from one to eight;
Its teaching force from ten to 2M. Its
students from ntnety-nlne to 4.118 and Its
Income from !2S.tS3 to IiS6,878. One of his
distinctions is that among college presi
dents, he has been a consistent defender
of foot ball, and It was largely through
his Influence that some reforms In the
cams were Instituted a few. years ago.
College Diplomas.
Statistics Just gathered by Yale univer
sity show that In the la-st half century
only one-quarter of the 23,000 students were
graduated.
Many of these are now among the most
prominent men In the country. In some
pursuits there are more non graduates than
graduates, and in nearly all the percen
tage is higher. .
For Distance, In art, architecture, and
muslo there are five times as many non
graduates as graduate; in government
employment twice as many; In the min
istry, one and a fourth as many; In aclen-
tlflo fields, nearly as many; In finance, an
equal number; In business, twice aa many,
"Theee are surprising figures," comments
the New York American, "and seem to
show that a diploma does not carry with it
a guarantee of success. "

NIAGARA' FALLS, March 6.-Two un

that overturned In the current of the
Niagara river one and one-half miles above
the fall today are reported by the ta'e
reservation officials to have been swept
over th Horseshoe falls.
In their effort to keep the bow headed
toward the current both men bent to the
oar with all their power, but at every
stroke they lost distance. The boat was
too far out and m a place too dangerous
for any aid to be sent though several per
sons witnessed the men's struggles.
As the boat slowly slipped down stream
into the more powerful rapids it rolled over
and the men were tumbled Into the water.
One man was seen again only for a mo
ment. The other came to the surface and
struggled against the fierce current.
Then he was. whirled under. The over
turned boat bobbed like a cork as it was
swept toward the Horseshoe. The sup
position Is that the two bodies were caught
In an under current and rushed on to the
brink water at the same speed that the
boat was carried over.

"The other day Mrs. Roepke, wife
of tbe merchant, D. Roepke, 14 92 Sec
ond avenue, said to me: 'I hare had
a cold now for almost a month and
can't get rid of It. Haven't you got
something you can recommend?' I
asked her to try the A. D. S. Cold and
Grippe Remedy, and In a few days she
came in and thanked me and aald that

one of a doxen like experiences I might
relate," say Bernard Colle, a well
known druggist at 1470 Second avenue,
New York.
"When people come hack for a medi

D. S. remedies. They repeat, and that
Is What counts. There have been some
remarkable A. D. S. cures In my
neighborhood, and every day adda new
testimonials to tbe list."
There are 11,000 other A. D. S.
druggists just like Mr. Colle, and every
one of them is a friend of hie public,
