MARYLAND AT RALEIGH.
The Baltimore Herald says : The
Raleigh Exposition will afford oppor
tunitieB for display never before of
fered to the people of Maryland.
They ought to be made the most of
by display of energy on the part of
Maryland people which will show off
the state in a favorable light among
competitors. October 22, 23 and 24
are to be Maryland days at the expo
sition.
STEEL WATER PIPES.
Steel is becoming of more general
use each year. The EaBt Jersy Wa
ter company which has the contract
for supplying Newark, N. J., with
water, proposes to use steel v& am t
niiliif WTtlch so much has been
said, of late, and so little really
known.
With few exceptions cast and
wrought iron has been used for water
piping and this is a new use of steel
Treatment of New Students at
the University.
There is only one way to stop the
students from hazing each other, and
that way is to stop them. Sometimes
they stop of their own accord. When
a, thing stops itself, it is stopped good
fashion. Such is the case at Chapel
Hill; hazing has stopped itself. Read
these resolutions :
Resolutions of the class of 1891.
" Recognizing the fact that the de
velpement of the University depends
npon the harmonious co-operation of
its friends, and especially upon the
voluntary adoption of true standards
of manliness by the student body
the class of 1894 in meeting assembled
do hereby resolve :
1. That the practice of hazing
new students is far beneath the dig
nity of University men and contrary
to the spirit of a real University.
"2. That new students who enter
the University hereafter chall not be
subjected to blacking nor maltreat
xnent by this class.
T. B. Lbk,
H. Bingham,
H. W. Whkdbkk.
Committee.'
At a mass meeting of all the stu
dents of the Univert-ity it was unan
imonsly
M Resolved. That the students of
the University indorse the action of
the class of 1894 and promise their
hearty co-operation in eliminating
from University life all maltreatment
of new studentB."
These resolutions are very gratify
ing to the friends of the University.
We are heartily glad that the young
gentlemen of this nobln institution
have taken this high and dignified
position in reference to this playful
practice, innocent enough in its in
ception, but repulsive and damaging
in the excess to which it always goes.
All honor to our University students
for their advanced, noble, dignified
jxwition in this as in other matters.
She BHln t I'rupou to Him.
One ot tiio lata muirimonial en
gagement is aid to be the outcome
of a daring little piece of repartee on
the part of the young woman, who
has eDjoyed the reputation of beiug
not only a wit, but a beauty and a
belle as well. Although quite young,
she was known to have declined the
honor of matrimonial alliance with
several of the best bo called "catches"
of the season, and it began at last to
be rumored that her mind and heart
were set on one of her admirers who
had not, as yet. the temerity to come
to the point. However that may be,
the young man in question was her
partner in one of the Harvard as
semblies last winter, seated with her
in a sequestered nook, "far from the
madniug crowd."
Anrouos of something that had
been said, he asked her laughingly if
the report were true that she had re
fused all the eligible men in her set.
She blushed vividly for a moment,
then suddenly raised her head, looked
him full in the face and said pointed
ly, "Yes, it is true present company
accepted It is, perhaps, needless
to state that, they remained in the
':seqnentered nook' . during the rest
of the Igerman, and that the young
lady wore a sparkling solitaire on her
eft hand within a few days. Rumor
also has it that the above conversa
tion was overheard by one of the
discarded suitors, who forthwith
gave it away.11
Milk a?a Fire Extinguisher.
Lightning receutly si ruck the ilag
pole on the Eastford hotel, at Oxford,
Md., a large building which was form
erly the Maryland Military and Na
val Academy, and set fire to the cu
pola, causing much consternation
among the guests and threatening to
destroy the building. This would
have been the case but ths rain which
was falling at the time and the efforts
of the proprietor, who used milk as
an extinguisher. It is stated, in ac
cordance with an old superstition that
water will not put out fire caused by
light nice. How long this antique
fallacy has clouded the minds of too
superstitious is not known, but that
it has come down from remote times
will hardly be questioned. The hott
proprietor,believing that water would
not save his premises, was at his wits1
end for an effective extinguisher until
he noticed a milk wagon filled with
cans of the lacteal fluid standing just
at the moment in front of the house,
ready to hand method of salvation,
providentially supplied. Seizing one
of the cans, the non believer in wa
ter lugged it to the top of the hotel
and poured it out on the lightning
kindled flames and then went back
for further supplies, until he had the
satisfaction of seeing the last spark
smothered and the burning hotel
saved.- Baltimore Sun.

The New Berne Journal says: 'No
intelligent niau would think for a
moment of excluding honest immi
grants of desirable character, who
wish to come to the United States to
become in good faith American citi
zens, but the time has certainly been
reached when we should have intelli
gent legislation to exclude the iguo
rant and the vicious."
All Paris is laughing over the joke
about an American inventor who is
said to have patented a corset that is
to bring about the reign of morality
at once. If one of these articles is
pressed by a lover's arm it at once
emits a shriek like the whistle of a
railroad engine; and the inventor
claims that ne has already married
three of his daughters, owing to the
publicity thus thrust upon a back
ward lover. But the wits of Paris,
carrying out the joke to its utmost,
profess to fear thait soon the parlors
will become unbearable, owing to the
simultaneous and continued whistling
of the corsets. Exchange
