On la f Saturday night, between the honirf of f" i and eleven o’clock, three young 'ndies, Miss Jennie Fisher, .\W ('mlougue and Miss Nellie Meador were returning to their rooms at ti.o l ormitory from an Alpha Piii fraternity meeting. They started to go around the dormitory building, when they were frightened by the appearance of a dog. They naturally tied from the canine, running toward the east end of the dormitory, very close to the building, not knowing that there were open coal chutes along that side. All three of the lad: s fell headlong into the opening, r 1 Miss Fisher and Miss Conlougr s were more or less severely bruised and shaken up. Dr. G. C. Smythe vas summoned, and on examination found that Miss Fisher had a gash cut in her head, and he at first thought that there was concussion of the brain. She remained unconscious until Sunday morning between 5 and 6 o’clock. Miss Conlougue was hurt about the head, her face being very much bruised,
