One-third of the students ofCornell, or 900, have gone to theirrespective homes since the outbreakof the epidemic and of those remain­ing 75 are on the sick list in Ithaca.Fiftv-seven of the' .students arebeing -'taken care of in the collegeinfirmary by fifty-one trained orskilled nurses, and are receiving thebest of hospital care.From the results of investigationscarried on by the city. board ofhealth and by experts employed bythe university, it may properly be in­ferred that all the infection is due tothe water and not to the milk supply.The University has made arrange­ments to secure pure water, duly in­spected, for the students who stillremain in college. Artesian waterhas been placed in all of the univer­sity buildings and pledges have beenreceived from the 306 boarding­house keepers in Ithaca to furnishpure water to all their patrons. Inorder .to . insure pure._ water..for .. theUniversity and the city the boardof trustees have authorized an ex­penditure of $150,000 for the instal­lation of a complete and adequate'filtration plant, not later than Sep­tember I, 1903.All students who have left the uni­versity will be allowed to make uptheir work either by means of specialclasses or by addition of extra coursesto the curriculum of the summersession.

UryThe meeting of the Tuffley factionof the class of '03 was more largelyattended than was generally ex­pected. About sixty were present.After stating that the object ofthis meeting was to complete theelection 'of officers (which was leftuncompleted at the meeting whichl\k. Tuffley adjourned last quarter)and after dispensing with the read­ing of the minutes, owing to the factthat Mr. Baldwin, the secretary, wasnot present, the meeting proceededimmediately to the election of a firstvice- president.Mr. Tuffley withdrew from thepresidency upon the election of thefirst vice-president, W. M. Fitzpat­rick. After Mr. Fitzpatrick's shortspeech the house unanimously electedR; R." Fergusonas-president of·thereal class of '03. The following offi­cers were then elected: E. C. Clancy,second vice-president; J� M. Weiss,third _0 vice-president; C M. Pohl,recording secretary; j. F. Slepicka,corresponding secretary; C. D.Baker, treasurer; O. A.

A division of the class,with all the unpleasantness that sucha condition would entail, is greatlyfeared.SIGMA ALPHA EPSILON ESTABLISHEDNew Greek-Letter Fraternity InstalledThis Evening at "the AuditoriumUniversity of Chicago Greeks willwelcome to their family a new mem­ber after to-day.

REGIMENT WINS A. A. U. MEET THE tAW SCHOOL SMOKERThrough Discouraging Luck Maroons AreOnly Able to Take Third Place-CahillRuns Brilliant Half-Relay to ChicagoThe University of Chicago did notdo as well as was expected in themeet at Milwaukee Saturday. Thiswas due in part to suspension noticesreceived by Maxwell, Hall, andWightman, who were suspected ofhaving something to do with stealingProfessor Starr's ice cream, thougho it. is generally known about the cam­pus that it was not they who took it.This had a discouraging effect on therest of the team.It was too bad that the track teamhad to suffer, but better in this meetthan in any other, because it was nota college meet.In the meet Chicago was unluckyalso. Clyde Blair was not well, buthe nevertheless put up a plucky fightin the dash." He should not havegone into the meet at all, but if hehad not it would, have been hard toallay the suspicion that he was afraidof being heaten. He won his pre­liminary heat by a narrow marginfrom 1\[. B. Wellington of the Y. M.C. A. In the semi-finals he andRice tied. This made a run - offnecessary. On this Blair allowedRice to WID by a good margin in orderto take no chances of being cut outof the finals. If he had run his limitand then been beaten he would havehad very little chance of winning theheat for seconds. By a wonderful efforthe pulled out the heat for secondsdefeating Poage and George Smith.He had thus run four 75-yard dasheswithin seven minutes, and was com­pletely exhausted and quite sick.¥utagg.".and�his .team mat�s._.did.not think he should run the final, buthis pluck got the better of him and,sick as he was, he went in and did hisvery best. Eckersall won, with Ricesecond and Blair third. Blair wasahead at the 60-yard mark, but his'strength simply would not last andhe fell exhausted at the tape. Hedeserves praise for his plucky fight.The discouragement of the Ma­roons at the loss of some of theirstars, and at the sickness of theirnervy sprinter, was increased in thevery first event by another mis­fortune.· Eli Gale, when runningthe fourth lap of the mile stum­bled over a row of nails whichwas projecting from the track, felland skinned himself badly, thuslosing much ground, and being dis­abled. He made a good fight, butwas unable to overcome this handi­cap. If it had not occurred the Ma­roons feel that Eli would have scored.Hard luck was continued in thequarter. It is always disagreeable tomake excuses and charges, but somethings were so obvious that althoughthe details may be passed over it isnecessary in justice to Tommy Tay­lor to say something. He had manydifficulties and was able only to getthird place, but his superiority to thewinner was demonstrated in the easyway he pulled away from GeorgeSmith in the relay,Quantrell 'surprised everyone bycoming to the front in the highjump. He has been ilJ, and no onethought he was strong enough toclear 5 ft. 8 in.; but he did, gettingthird place.One of the two bright spots in themeet for Chicago was the splendidrace run by Mort Cahill in the half.It did the Maroons good to see himdistance Breitkreutz, the winner ofthe Intercollegiate, in the half, andto win by a large margin.Finally, Chicago captured themost coveted event on the program,the relay, our team, composed ofFerriss, Moore, Buckwalter, and Tay­lor, winning from the First Regi­ment team of veteran stars. Attorneys Entertain Faculty andProminent Alumni in Hitch­cock ParlorsProfessor Freund Spoke on FutureLaw School- Dean Judson andProf. Hall Also SpeakThe much talked-of Law smokerwas held in the parlors of HitchcockHall on Saturday evening. For thefirst time since the Law Schoolopened Faculty and students metsocially. Well-known lawyers andprominent alumni of the Universitymet with them and discussed the be­ginnings and future of the newschool. There were a number of in­formal talks. The mysterious dis­appearance of the cigars marred theotherwise successful affair.Professor Freund, who is ActingDean of the Law School in the absenceof Professor Beale, spoke first on theplans for the new school. He drewattention to the fact that the schoolhere is patterned after the Harvardlaw school, and added that we hadalso taken good ideas from otherschools. In speaking of the new Lawbuilding, Professor Freund said thatit would be adjoining the women'shalls, and have gardens of flowersabout it. "All of this," he said, "Iheartily approve of." This last state­ment caused much laughter amongthose present.Dean Judson, introduced as at onetime constitutingtheLaw School, wel­comed the new.students to the Uni­versity. Professor Hall spoke forthe Faculty, Franz- Ander:;otl' -read �."Dooley's criticism of the SupremeCourt, and Percy Eckhart, recentlygraduated from the Harvard LawSchool, and now practicing in thecity, gave the students some practicaladvice from his short but busy legalcareer. Earle Fleming spoke forthe Senior class, and A� V. McGeorgewittily represented the "baby-class,"as he termed it..The men' came early and stayed"late. Refreshments were served and"Lady Nicotine"" was courted.Many Chicago yells and nine "Rahs"for Dean Beale, who wasabsent, end­ed the smoker.HULL COURT ABBUAL SMOKERThe Medical students of HullCourt gave their annual smoker Fri­day evening in Haskell HaiL Theroom was beautifully decorated withorange and red, the Roush MedicalColors. The evening was one ofthe most enjoyable of the year. .One hundred and" twenty-five stu­dents were present, this being a rep­resentative number of the classes onthe South Side. A number of thestudents gave some very interestingspeecbes which were· received withloud applause. At I I : 30 light re­freshments were served. At 1 o'clockthe mighty "R-u-s-h" was heard fromall points of the campus. Many of the\Vest Side students were present, andtold many traditions of the old col­lege which was of interest to" all theyounger members. The Social com­mittee deserves special credit for thesuccess of the smoker.Dr. Von Holst Dyin� in GermanyDr. Herman Eduard von Holst,who was Head Professor of History atthe University from J 893 till 1900,when he was compelled to go toEurope on account of illness, is re­ported dying in Baden, Germany.As Professor von Holst enjoys aninternational reputation many papersof the world-foreign and American-have had much notice of his seri­ous condition of late..

EDITORIALSProfessor Starr seems to be theonly one so far who has won anyThe honor in developmentsIce-Cream growing out of the raidAJfair on the ice cream at hisr�ption � �eek�go I��gay even�ing_ It is within the bounds of care-'ful conservatism to state that neitherthe men accused of being implicatednor the Faculty committee on disci­pline have earned the right to anyemphatic commendation.It is no more than fair to ProfessorStarr to state that he sent a messageto the Freshmen athletes,through Mr,Stagg, which was decidedly like theaction of a" good fellow." Thismessage was that if they went to seehim he would not report the affairofficially. There is a question whetheror not the men involved received themessage in . time. Professor Starrset Monday noon as the time limitfor their call. But on account ofMr. Stagg's unexpected departurefrom the city, it is declared that someof the men, at least, did not receivethe message until � o'clock Monday.Be that as it may, Mr. Starr did allthat could be reasonably expectedfrom one in his position..Going' back to ,the original esca­j;iae, -'wbilerin"a-ge�r ��students and some members of theFaculty look upon the .whole affairas a "Freshman stu�t'; and a joke onthe students in Mr. Starr's classes,they do not for a moment defend theaction of those committing the dep­redation. There is no real groundfor such a defense.As it was a stunt decidedly of thefreshman and prep school type inthe rural colJeges, the upperclassmen involved are in a position quiteshocking to their senior dignity.To be creditable, if countenanced.by anybody, a trick of the kind inquestion should at least be clever.The participants should above all be. clever .in concealing their identity.For once that is revealed, the jokeapparently disappears. In this con-I. , nection, it may be that some one ofthe Freshmen deserves a statue, thegift of admiring classmates. For theskill with which the details of theaffair were concealed, while thegreat heroism of one or more of theparticipants was brought out bymeans of several stump speeches inHitchcock, Cobb, the Gym, and else­where, was not less than masterful.And then after that the heroic offer­ing to lay one's self on the altar, amartyr to the cause, calls for a wreathon the statue.As the result of this the UniversityDeans were led to believe that theathletes as a group might have beenthe ones who took the freezer full ofcream. Thishas been proved not to.be the case, although it seemed so atfirst.From the point of view of the stu­dent and the public, the Deans weremore strenuous in their "anti rowdy­ism" policy than the entire best inter­ests of the University demanded. OnSaturday morning three athletes andone other man who told that theaffair was not due to the athletes' ac­tivities, were suspended temporarily.They were suspended "pending fur­ther investigation," set for today,when it was expected final actionwould be taken. In other words,their cases were continued.But what was scheduled in theUniversity's interests in the mean­time? The A. A. U. meet at Milwau­kee for Saturday night. These threemen were conceded to be sure ofeight points, at the very least. Withthese three contesting' the men wereacknowledged to have an excellentchance to win a banner for the teamand the U. of C. The moment that: their temporary suspension, was an':'nounced all hopes were ended. Theteam was no longer a team. Becauseof the temporary suspension .notmerely the men awaiting to seewhether theo were to be punished,but the team, the University, and itsconstituent p�blic suffered.That suspension was somethinglike a temporary injunction. Sup­pose that the courts had back inJanuary enjoined miners and op­erators from digging coal for thepublic, pending the decision of thestrike. The case would be similar.It certainly would not have beenstraining the point for the commit­tee to delay the suspension pendingthe investigation.The Deans are in general friendlyto the athletics of the University,while at the same time they are ordi­narily Just. But in this case thecommittee on discipline,' to say theleast, did not consider all the inter­ests of the University. Saturday,Sunday, and today students in COD­yersation have expressed -Ieelings -ofindignation.

Just at daybreak the lookoutshouted down from the mizzen that therewas something dead ahead. It proved to bethe body of a young man frozen tight in theice. By this we guessed that he had beencalling at one of the halls. The ice aroundthe halls is pretty bad, and we can makeprogress only with very great difficulty. Mal·colm Gervais de St. Trevor, who thinks heis quite a society man, got out and tried tocut some ice around Green H all, but hefailed to make good. The great problem isto get through the passage between WalkerMuseum and Green Hall without buttinginto either of them.

The cause of her frightwas a black cat which had suddenly leapedinto her lap. Professor Cutting made the inci­dent the basis for a class- room exercise.No one should now doubt the loyalty tohis country of Mr. Jesse Edward Retherford,a graduate student at the University. OnSaturday afternoon, in company with someof his friends. he undertook to board theCottage Grove car to go down to the conven­tion. As the car was again under way, hisfriends, on looking back, were horrified tosee Mr. Retherford lose his ho d on the carhe had not been able to hoard, and fall flatin the mud and water wmle the rear carpassed within three inches of his head. Hewas picked up by his friends, and, undauntedin purpose, attended the convention. 1£ anyone should see him 'now goin�r'about thecampus in the rain without an umbrella, lethim not suspect that something is wrong, forit was Mr. Retherford's umbrella that wasmashed in the accident. and not his head.Tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock the trialsfor the Freshman debating team will be heldin Cobb Lecture Hall.
