GREAT COLLEGE YEAR.

Westens Institutions of Learning Show Special Progress. When cap and gown have been laid aside and the last senior has packed his ■heepskin and disapeared from the campus educators in the universities of the West will look back over the school year now closing as one of unequaled endeavor and marvelous results. Advices from the leading institutions west of the Alleghauies concerning the work done in ’9B-’99 show that there has been in the history of Western colleges no year more successful than this, in point of numbers instructed or in the quality of the instruction given. And this mark is made at a time when wars have taken into other lands thousands of young men—hundreds of whom left studies to enter the armies of the United States. A Chicago paper has received from the heads of most of the Western universities communications telling of the year’s material and mental prosperity and containing hopeful and enthusiastic predictions for the labors to be taken up next fall. Without exception these letters tell of a wonderful work done in the last ten months. In many institutions this year’s attendance never before was equaled, and In none has it fallen below other records. New buildings have been erected, courses of study have been enlarged and improved, additions have been made to faculties, and many institutions have had their endowments increased by substantial donations. Throughout the Western educational world the same story is told. Among the colleges which have shown particular vigor this year are the University of Wisconsin, where the attendance was 156 in excess of any previous record; the University of Illinois, which set a new mark—l6s higher than the last —and which graduates the largest class in its history, Lake Forest University, whose schools have had their largest attendance; Drake University, with e»n enrollment showing a gain of 17 per cent over any other year, and the Armour Institute of Technology, which, sends out a greater number of engineers than ever before. The University of Minnesota sent more than 100 students with the volunteer regiments to the Philippines and still retained 2,900 on its rolls. Purdue University graduates 157 young men and women, eclipsing any former record.

HOBART TO RETIRE.

Vice President Will Not Be a Candidate in 1900. On account of physical incapacity Vice. President Hobart will not be a candidate for renomination next year. It is stated that he will soon retire from official life, The positive retirement of Hobart naturally excites interest as to who will succeed him. Three names are talked of at present. Gov. Roosevelt, New York, is mentioned. Senator Lodge of Massachusetts is also looked upon as a favorite candidate. A Chicago paper the qther day said: “Western Republican Congressmen are nearly a unit for thejdea of selecting the vice-presidential candidate from the region west of the Mississippi river. It leaked out that during Congressman Henderson’s stay in Chicago t!he question of selecting a running mate for the President was discussed quite as fully as the speakership contest. Senators Davis of Minnesota, Thurston of Nebraska, Wolcott of Colorado and ex-Senator Manderson of Nebraska have been discussed in a tentative way.”

PREPARING FOR THE CENSUS.

Director Merriam Ready to Instruct His Supervisors. Census Director Merriam has organized a bureau for the instruction of Supervisors, and as soon as they are appointed the work of teaching them their duties will begin. It is hoped by Mr. Merriam that by the time Congress meets in December the whole corps of supervisors will have been thoroughly drilled, so that all the nominations may go to the Senate for prompt action by that body. The supervisors will have charge of the enumerators in their various districts, and just now the bureau is at work gathering data and preparing statements and maps which will show how many enumerators will be needed in each district and how the districts may best be paid out to be covered satisfactorily and within the thirty days allowed for taking the census next year. In appointing the census clerks in Washington, of whom there will be 2,000, the Democrats will be given a share.

“TEXAS EXPRESS” IS DERAILED.

Passengers and Crew Hurt by an Accident Near Geneseo. The Texas express on the Chicago, Rick Island and Pacific Railroad was derailed near Geneseo, 111., Sunday night. No one was fatally injured, but a dozen passengers and trainmen were more or less hurt. Two chair cars and a smoker were torn into splinters, the engine was turned over and the mail car was split in twain. The wounded passengers were given prompt medical aid, which was furnished from Geneseo. Conductor Huntington was the most seriously hurt and he was taken to a hotel. The train was running at a high rate of speed when the accident took place, and it was suggested that the ■mash-up was due to a spreading of the rails. /

CALL FOR SOLDIERS.

Gen. Corbin Issues Orders for Enlisting 2,600 Men. Gen. Corbin issued orders Friday for the immediate enlistment of 2,600 regulars at the army recruiting stations in various parts of the country.’ This addition, which brings the actual fighting force up to 65,000 men. is rendered possible by a decision- of the Comptroller of the Treasury that the hospital corps should not be included in the limit fixed by Congress for the aggregate strength of the regular establishment and that men for the hospital corps could be regarded as nurses. This corps numbers 2,600 men, who will be transferred to the civilian employe class.

Mrs. Eliza Wike, 120 Iron street, Akron, Ohio, says: “I would be in my grave now if it had not been for your God-sent remedy, Pe-ru-na. I was a broken-down woman, had no appetite; what little I did eat did not agree with my stomach. It is now seven years past that I used Pe-ru-na and I can eat anything.”—Mrs. Eliza Wike.

A Distant Brother.

A Boston woman had a servant named Norah, a rosy-cheeked girl, who received frequent calls from a young man, of whom she often spoke as “my brother.” The consternation of her mistress may be guessed when one day Norah announced that she was soon to marry the stalwart “Tim.” “What do you mean, Norah?” demanded the lady, feeling that a poor trick had been played upon her. “You’ve always spoken of Tim as your brother to me.” “Yis, ma’am,” said the blushing Norah. “I always thought of hlpi so, ma’am, while he was makin’ up his mind; but he’s been so bowld as to remind me, ma’am, that he’s only me brother-in-law’s brother, afther all!” Ychith’s Companion.

It Works Like a Grain Binder.

The only way to bind corn is the reasonable, sensible, horizontal way; that is. as nearly after the principle of a grain binder as is possible. Those who have used the Deering Horizontal Corn Binder know that binding corn by machinery is no longer an experiment. This machine has roller and ball bearings, it is light for two horses and free from side draft, and it does not scatter loose ears all over the field.

The United States a Power for Good.

A distinguished historian writes, while referring to our advent as a colonizing power, that our influence for good over European spheres will be immense. This result was just as inevitable as is the cure which follows the use of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. It cures Indigestion, constipation, and tones np the whole system.
