STANFORD'S SORROW. A. B. Morgan, President of the Stu- dent Body, a Confessed Ballot- Stuffer. Disappointed and conscience stricken, A. B. Morgan, president of the Stanford dent body, university debater, and andidate for treasurer of the Associated Students, has confessed himself guilty of having stuffed el n of student body officers, held at the college on May 5. when he was ¢ chosen to look after the uni- v finances for the ensuing vear. detail of tha crime which has agi- tated Stanford col ge clircles for a fort- night come to light and the shadows have been removed from the names of several prominent college politicians who would otherwise have had to suffer from | unjust suspicior Since the confession, nothing but the fraudulent act and the events that led up to its discovery have been talked of. Now every one sces how easy it was to slip the eighty-seveu” illegal votes into the box while the count was in progress, and aft rd fix up the book containing the names. When the ballots were counted on elec tion eve and the unprecedented vote of 902 announced, doubts began to arise in the minds of the defeated candidate’s friend s. The polling list was demanded and a scrutiny begun. It was soon dis- that the names of students no in college had been marked off covered longer as v the register would agree the ballots in the box. This incrim- ng evide was made known and a was called. sed for a care studer ter of appointing ¢ committee was left in Jordan, who lected ner, Whittfer, ) d Durand.

The next day Morgan confessed to his erime and withdrew from the univer- sity. he indignation at college against Mor- gan is_tempered with a feeling of sad- ness. He has held the best offices in the gift of the students. His previous repu- tat s been irreproachable, and_his ma Jility is recognized by members of the faculty and students alike. There is great belief in college circles | that but one man is responsible for this stain on university polities.

At the last held review of San Fran- clsco Tent, the contest for bringing in the greater number of members, between a team of the reds and one of the blues, was decided in favor of the reds, who brought in twenty-four members, while the other team brought in only fwenty- one.

Both of these old soldiers are to be stationed in the new recruiting office to teach the volunteers the primary part of the arts of war. Corporal Townsend enlisted in this State way back in June, 1857. Corporal Meyers enlisted in June, 1858. Both have seen considerable service and been through many dangers. Their first en- campment was at Washington, Yolo County, in 1859, under command of General Hooker. 7 Lf During the troublous years that fol- lowed both served together, often be- ing stationed at the same post.

In apoplexy the | suddenness of death depends on the size of the artery that is broken and the portion of the brain in which it breaks. | Mrs. General Shafter, who was stricken | with apoplexy wh.le coming out of the Century Club, was brought in here and Kept alive until word could be sent to the Presidio, when they moved her home. She liyed almost twenty-four hours after the stroke “Neuralgia and paralysis of the heart l and apoplecti. strokes are the most | common causes for sudden deaths. | " Dr. McMurdo does not think apo- | plectic strokes are becoming any more ‘cnmmon than in former years. “Apo- ‘plemic strokes often occur in people | who have robust constitutions and who take little or no exercise. A de- | posit of lime forms on the inner coat | of the artery. This hard deposition in- terferes with the elasticity of the ar- teries, they become brittle and at a slight shock break. Apoplexy is most | | common in people over 50 years. Men | are more subject to it than women. | | Of course there are exceptions. Cases of children of 10 dvingof apoplexy have | been recorded. There are certain char- | acteristics which point to the proba- | | | bility of an apoplectic stroke. Stout, medium-sized persons with thick necks | are likely to get them. Heredity is an | important factor. { | “The two chief causes of apoplexy are | | the hardening of the arteries and the ;abuse of alcohol. People of apoplectic | | tendencles are generally seized while | performing work of some kind. Pre- | lmonltory symptoms are not as com- | | mon as many believe. | | “People of violent temper have been | | known to drop dead while in a fit of | anger. The heart then beats so fast | | that the arteries cannot empty into the | velns fast enough, and the distension produces a rupture.” Dr. Beverly Cole: ‘“Cases of sudden death are and have been remarkably | common in California. There are two | }refisons for this. One cause is the i | | electrical conditions of the air; the | other cause accounts for so many of the pioneers going off suddenly. In | the hustle and bustle of the eariy days | men lived constantly under a high ten- sion. The nervous strain exhausted them and their hearts became weak. They used artificial means to stimulate it, but there came a time when the | stimulant was forgotten and then an- | gt}&e'r case of a ‘man found dead in his ed. “Fatty degeneration of the heart, fatty‘ deposit outside the heart and apoplexy are all commo sudden deaths.” : i g —————— In the “insectary,” or bug-hatr‘hery! in the Government Bureau of Ento- | mology at Washington much interest | Is centered in the experiments with a | butterfly which grows wild in immense | numbers in the forests of Mexico. The cocoon is alout nine inches long and is the common house of one to two hundred crysalids, each in time to be- | come a butterfly. This habit of com- bining together to build a cocoon seems to be peculiar to this one species, which are found no place but in Mexico. The cocoon under a powerful magni- fying glass is seen to be composed of an infinite number of exquisitely fine + L] + a + -] + [ | = -] + L] Etc., glos strands of silk, crossing each other in every direction. If this silk could be spun, as experts are trying to do, the “gregarious but- terfly” would quickly displace the silk worm and transfer the silk industry in a large measur from the Orient to America. The cost of silk would be very greatly lessened for this butterfly is very hardy and grows wild.
