3£arriage« of Coltag* Wemoh
Under 2o years old oollege wosnen rarely marry. Of 277 graduates 6f the latest three classes but 10 are married. If these youngest classes are left out of account, so that we consider only women who have passed 25, we find 33.7 per oent married. After the age of 80 is passed, 43. after 85, the rate becomes 49.7, while of those who have passed 40 years 54.5 per cent are married. The census tables do not fix exactly the general marriage rate for women of this ago, but it is not far from 90 per cent. The ultimate probability of a college woman's marriage, therefore, seems to be below 55 per cent against 90 per cent for other women—not quite two-thirds as great.—"The Marriage Rate of College Women," by Milicent Washburn Shinn, in Century.

The names of others injured ar® not known, as they left the scene witheat being recognized.
The accident happened to oar N®. on the long hill coming into the West End on its way to Pittsbwag. Jtuft as the car started down the heavy grade the brake broke and it was soon feeyend the control of the motorman, the »peed became terrific, and wheu a sharp curve near the foot of the hill was reached, the car made a wonderful leap, landing trucks uppermost in McCarthy's run, six or eight feat below tho track grade.
The accident occurred at a lonely spot, and it was quire awhile before assistance reached the sufferers, who were wedged tightly in the wreck, which was most complete. 11When the conductor saw that the car was beyond control, he laid down on the floor and advised the others to follow his example.
The killed were found wedged under the roof of the car which had been smashed in upon them. The escape of any of those 011 the car was miraculous.
The dead were brought to the Pittsburg morgue and tiie injured to the several hospitals.

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
Venezuelan Question Is to lie
tii* Brought .Before Congress. Washington, Oct. 14.—Tho manner in which the Venezuelan question is to be brought befox-e congress has been outlined in a general way by those who liavo been most interested in the subject. This will be by means of a resolution to be introduced, it is probable, on the first day of the session. It will provide for the appointment of a committee of six, three from the senate and three from the house, to consider tha entire question and to report as to tho rights and obligations of the United States and the course desirable for this government to take.
This resolution, it ia said, will not delay a speedy determination of the attitude of the United States. The purposo is to have all necessary material, in the way of historical data, ready for tho committee as soon as it is appointed, and it is expected that a report will be made to both branches of songrew before the holiday recess.

Waller, tire hopeful that the petition and circular letter which have been sent broadcast through Kansas will boar good fruit, and will obtain the release of the ex-consul from prison, in which he is confined.
The petition is addressed to congress, and asks that an investigation be made of the cause of Waller's arrest and imprisonment by Franco.
After presenting tha case of tho exconsul, the petition says in part: "Your memorialists are informod that, while Johu L. Waller and his family were domiciled iu Madagascar and in rightful possession of a valuable laud grant bestowed upon him by the lawful government of Madagascar, he was wrongfully and forcibly arrested by a body of soldiers, commanded by an officer of the republic of France, and summarily sentenced by a pretended courtmartial to bo confined in prison for 20 years and that he was denied a hearing before any tribunal, and that ho is now wrongly imprisoned and deprived of his liberty and property. "Your memorialists respectfully pray congress to institute an investigation of the cause of the imprisonment of John L. Waller and that he be protected ia liis personal rights and property as an American citizen."
