OPPOSED TO COLLEGE MERGER rises Friends with Lengthy State- ment After Co-Opewating in ¢ Action of Sywod Conw ing Bellevue and Hastings, The resignation of Dr. Stephen W. Stookey, president of Bellevue college, fs in the hands of the executive committes of the board of trustees and has been for some time, The committee has not yet acted on it. This Information has come to the sur- face through the discussion following the action of the Presbyterian synod of Ne- braska In voting to ‘me:ge Hastings and Bellevue colleges. No mambsr of the board or executive committes has been found, however, who will discuss it. Dr. Stookey attended the adjourned meet- ing.of the s:nod at Kearney and was in- vited to spedk on the plan of the merger, but, walved the p.vilege, and co-operated In the action of the synod. He has since made a published statement, with evident deliberation, in. which he betrays an un- friendly attitude toward the consolidation movement, causing his friends much sur- | prise. He traces the history of Bellevue from its founding to the present afid re- views the steps In the movement leading up to the action of the synod. He con- cludes by commending Hastings for its aggressiveness and says: “WIIl the great and rich eity of Omaha let Hastings take this school so valuable in every way to the higher interests of this community? “Why will not some eitisen or some civic | orgdnization take up this matter, call a mass meeting, or In some way, see that enough money Is provided to earry on the work of the college this year and suf- ficlent encouragem¢nt glven so that funds for its future malntenance may be se- cured.” Walting for Henry T. Clarke. T'he return to the city of Henry T. Clarke 1s awalted with much Interest. He, a8 the founder of Bellevuo college, has a claim on‘the fifty-acre campus and would, prob- ably, regain title to It ‘were the college plant abandoned. The farm, of larger pro- | portions, 1s clear of any reversible clause. “It is certain Mr. Clarke will oppose any movement contemplating the removal or abandonment bf ‘Bellevue college,” said a member of the board of trustees. One of the men who has given years of patient thought and effort to the work of Bellevue is Dr. Edwin H. Jenks, pastor of First Presbyterian church of Omaha and member of the Bellevue board. Of | synod's action he say! “It is one step in a big, progressive edu- cational movement. It is the wisest thing {tg do. There certainly could be no de- | sire to injure Bellevue.” Asked as to the finality of synod's ac- tion or authority, Dr. Jenks said: “Well] synod -orders the two -colleges merged and the action is certainly offi- clal” As to dismantling Béllevue'and abandon- ing the plant, that, Dr. Jenks says, is a matter for the Hastings people to decide. It is belleved, however, that this will necessarily be done. It is liable to provoke some persistent opposition on the part of Henry P. Chivke,for o/ W H.*Betz, ot Bellevue, one -of the -trustees .of the %ol- lege, 15 quoted as threatening court pro- cedure to prevent It and says Mr, Clarke will view the situation as he does. lVALU‘lBLE PRIZES FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS Clan Gordon, Nebr: National Muni Rewar ks Dairymen pal League Offer for Essays.

J., Seems to Deepen, NEW YORI 9.—The body of Ocey | Snead was burfed today, but an uncom- promising Inquiry inte the manner of her death goes on' unabated at East Orange, N. J,, where Virginia Wardlaw, her spin- ster aunt, is held a prisoner pending an investigation by the grand jury. “‘Sentiment asidle,” sald the chief of po- lice, “‘there remain the brute facts in this case, and nothing in -explanation of them has been offered. We have & girl, found dead In twelve Inches of water In a bath tub, on the one hand, and on the other, the woman who last saw her allve but failea after it must have been discovered. Aunt and niece lived in the same house; it is incredible that the bath room could have remained unvisited for that length of time or that in their closely related life one ot the two could liave been absent so long from the house Without arousing the anx- lety of the other. ‘“These two basic facts alone are suffi- clent in themselves to ‘warrant their pre- sentation to the grand jury, even if there were no tangle of Insurance to unravel, no diagnosis of mul-nutrition and hypnosis by & reputable physician, no duplication of wills and no attempted purchase of chloro- form to ‘kill cats.: Mayor Cardwell of East Orange lssued an order this afternoon that Mrs. Caroline Martin, mother of Mrs. Ocey Snead, be arrested if found in New Jersey. “A tech- nical charge of vagrancy could be pre- ferred against her,” he said, “and she could be held until this case has been thoroughly aired.” Mrs. Martin, however, has shown no de- sire to visit New Jersey. She did not ap- pear at the funeral of her daughter today and the only representative of the family at the grave was Mrs. Mary 8nead, mother of Fletcher Snead, the missing husband. Heavily velled and shaken by convulsive s0bs, there seemed no doubt of her genuine grief, Mrs. Snead would not tell whether her son, Fletcher, is alive o dead. Franklin Fort, Jr., her sister's counsel, had advised silence, she sald. Mr. Fort admits, for hllI part, however, that the reticence and In- tense pride of the family have hampered him th matters as to which he desires tuller knowledge. Both Mre, Mary Snead and her mother, Mrs. Martha Wardlaw, he sald, would be conveyed Into seclusion to- night.

Playing about the kitchen range in the absence of his mother, Willlam Ussery, 3- year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Ussery of 1522% St. Mary's avenue, recelved fatal burns from which he dled Wednesday. The little fellow sutfered frightful burns and because of his helpiessness his clothes were literally burned from his body. Just haw the acaldent occurred will never be explained.
