STANFORD.UNIVERSITY, Sept. 30.— | Tke Russéli, senior and editor of the Chap- | arral,’ the college comic paper, - was the object of revenge by a number of ‘deter- mined juniors ‘in Encina Hall last night. It all came about as the resilt of an editorial in the Chaparral, and the mirth- ful editor was made to see the serious side of life. The '05 men conducted Bussell to one of Encina’s spacicus bathtubs and treated him .to an involuntary bath, or rather a series of them, the jovia) editor being soused in a tubful of cold- water without the formality of removing his clothes. After the ‘“tubbing” party the juniors took the dripping journalist to the big clubroom and put him through a series of antics for the amusement of the students there assembled. The trouble came about as the result of an editorial published in the Chaparral “knocking’ the junior class. The article read in part as follows: And now “Chapple” is led to wonder it Stanford has ever had a class Into which s¢ 1ittle of Stanford comprehension has percolated. ‘We will not judge of their faith, but thefr works certainly do not maxe good. * * Truly freshmanism is a sturdy growth if ¢ isn’t killed In its youth. ® ¢ * e like most of the members of '05 individually, but col- lectively they do mot qualify.

SEATTLE, Wash, Sept. 30.—W. 8. Thomas, alias Smith, the accused mur- derer of Patrolman Schaneman, died at the Providence Hospital this mornihg as the result of an operation performed yes- terday. An autopsy made on the body by Dr. Arthur C. Crookall to-night re- vealed that death was caused by an ope- ration which, in the opinion of the physi- clans present, with the exception of Dr. Cummings, was not necessary. In this operation, which was performed at the Providence Hospital yesterday aft- ernoon by Dr. Cummings, the autopsy revealed that no attempt was made to interfere with or extract the bullet Thomas’ back which he received from the revolver of Patrolman Philbrick at the time he attempted to escape from the scene of the Schaneman murder on the night of September 13. The bullet was found at the autopsy just where it w located after the shooting, imbedded in the muscles of the back. It was encysted and the wound was healing. Every organ was in normal condition. ‘“There was absolutely no excuse for the operation which caused the death of Tear “of t 1 a poltical-boss, ani | piau: ;| not :a‘man ‘who. has-a vote thag nvention: 1 haven't had tending one ef your { this o before 14 sessions hter, but I am in- by the always truthful and correct pressc that yeu hitve bsen somewhat noisy.

It is my opinion that 'Thomas was killed in the operation.” Thé_other physjolans attending the au- tepsy beside Dr. Crookall, who did the work, were Dr. Gibson, Dr. Carroll, Dr. Buckley, -Dr. Wiltsie, Dr. Hoye and Dr. Cummings. All except Dr. Cummings were of the opinion that Thomas' died from the operation. By what authority Thomas was removed from the County Jail to the Providence Hospital is to be investigated. Judge Bell when consulted by the jaller Monday afternoon stated that if at any time the attending physicians should appear before him and make a showing- that it was necessary that an operation be performed he would grant an order for the removal of the prisoner. No such appearance was made, according to a statement last night by Dr. Cummings. Some time before 11 o'clock Monday night, without any order of tourt or other authority, Thomas was taken from'his cot in the jail and driven to the hospital, and the next morning the operation was performed. —_—— Death. of Mrs. Charles W.
