The ofc: you something to arrest serge: On cross-examinetion witness denied th used the word “shame” or thet he heard geant Perry order the crowd back. He denied that he asked Sergoant Perry Lis number or that he refused to leave. He was not in the crowd or of the crowd, but went through the crowd to do an act of justice—to explain to the officer. C. G. Sawtelle, jr., testified that he was with Glassic on the steps, and with him felt indig- nant that the man rhould have been arreste He went with Glassie after the crowd and pushed through. Mr. Glassie sai shame, forgthis man has done nothing,”and the officer struck Glassie, shoving the crowd back. ‘Then Glassie asked for a pencil, and the officer said: “I'll give you something to take my num ber for. NX Tf 1 5 iT HOW JUDGE MILLER SETTLED IT. ‘The court here intimated that they need go no further, for they might hear testimony till ‘Thanksgiving and obtain no more light on the case. ‘The testimony showed clearly, he said, that the crowd was a disorderly one, but the question here is, did the defendant participate with the others.’ It is contended that he was not of the crowd, and, having witnessed the arrest, he went after the officer to explain that the man had done nothing. If he thought that the defendant was one of the crowd he would be inclined to impose the heaviest penalty, but he could not from the evidence look upon him as such, Under the circumstances and the excitement of the moment Sergeant Perry was perfectly justifiable in making the arrest, for it was natural amid the cries of the crowd to suppose that Glassie was not only one of the crowd, but was leading them on, It was, ho ever, shown that the defendant had done only what would have been done had there been no crowd about him and what any fair-minded man would do, The court dismissed the case.

The sashes are fixed on vote, wing out when opened. Mr. pherd found that all the side windows had been fastened down since his last visit so that they could not be opened. The neighbors had complained that they saw more of dead bodies in various stages of dissection than ‘ns at all pleasant and compatible with good a ind peaceful reat at night. ‘The fastening. of the side windows is the remedy adopted by the college authorities for this cause of disnatisfac- TRE MEANS OF VENTILATION. Mr. Shepherd next turned hix attention to running up to the top of the building. register is set in ‘the wall near the oor opens into this shaft. Gas jets are kept burn- ing behind the registers to cause a draft. Mr. Shepherd found that the old register had been taken out and the opening cut for a larger one, Which, however, bad not yet been put i n place. The new rej inter, which was shown to the in- spector, will have larger gas-burners. They have also placed larger, gas-burners in the lower part of the shaft in the hope of increas- ing the draft . Shepherd went down stairs and poked his nose around the vault and looked into the back yard, and Tux Star reporter trotted after him, and as far as possible, in Iris unscientific way, imitated the inspector, The colored jan- tor, who accompanied the inspecting party at & respectful distance from the rear, regarded the proceedings with the air of indifference which only a medical school janitor can as- sume. A SUMMARY OF WHAT HAS BEEN DONE, After Mr. Shepherd had concluded and was standing on the front steps, pondering upon the next place he should visit in search of | offences against the sanitary regulations, Tue Stan reporter stepped up anid asked him if the college authorities had complied with the re- quest of the health officer. “They are trying to improve the ventilation of the dissecting room,” was the reply. “The only thing they have done since our last visit is to arrange to have a larger register put in, and also they have increased the size of th burners in ‘the shaft, The windows on the sides have been fastened down, I don't see that they have done anything else.” “Did Dr. Townshend suggest anything to improve the ventilation?” asked the listener. “Yes, the doctor advised that an opening be | made in the roof and the room be ventilated | in that way. But I suppose the college People | | think that the changes they are making willbe | Sufficient to correct the evils complained of.” Mr. Shepherd rather expected that Dr. Town- | shend would come to the college building and waited a short time. He then concluded that the doctor might not come until late in the day and started on his rounds without further delay —_—— THE LONG TABLE. A True Story of a Country Town. Written for Tar Evextxe St) A short while ago I was called by business to make a visit to an interior country town, It was a place of considerable trade, and de- lighted in calling itself a city, although, as it was off from any main line of railroad, it pre~ served many traits of rural simplicity. I stopped at the principal hotel and asked for | accommodations, I was there told, by the | proprietor, that an agricultural convention was then in session at the court house, and, consequently, nearly every one of his rooms was already engaged. The same state of things, he said, existed at all the other houses of public entertainment in the town, How- ever, he assured me if I would stay with him he would do for me the best in his power and give me something of a chamber, which, even itwas not altogether what I’ might’ like, would still be found to be passably comfort- able. As I bad arranged to have several parties meet me that evening, who were anxious to see me in reference to’ the settle- ment of some claims, there seemed nothing else left for me to do but to accept the land- lord’s offer. ‘On looking around I found the inn at which I was to lodge was a large old-fashioned stone building that had been erected in the early part of the century, before the day of rail- roads. Its numerous and spacious a) ents, with lofty ceilings and heavy wood-work, its wide halls ample stairways, all gave token of a preparation for a large number of guests, These might often have filled it when the streets of the town were a thoroughfare for the ¥ travel that passed in coaches and in wagons from the eastern cities over the mountains to the distant west, But since the place had been isolated from the main routes such a crowd could ouly be looked for on ex- traordinary occasions, As soon as supper was over I asked to be taken to my chamber, 80 that I might receive my callers in private, | The clerk, who con- ducted me thither, said: “I going to put you in the long room. It is in the of the house, and is somewhat narrow, but it is |ery of horror burst from my lips. of trade that they try wo arrange if ts ato shuts vod we to the merchants and seoret TAZ Tle long. room, with ‘ite long table, to~ gated in a remote part of the building, to whic te ‘exactly the thing suited for an winks at it, estab 5 and the ‘of conversation, which usually’ attend & public house, had died away. Quiet had stolen over even the noise of hotel life. But I was destined to have yet another visitor, Apologia ing for the lateness of the call by saying he not learned I was in town until be was on his way home, he proceeded to lay before me the business that had induced him to press in so near midnight.
