Justice Siddons declared the wide publicity given the affidavit on jail tampering was "additional reason for his declaring a mis-trial.

Literary Fashion of Today 'Painful,' Crothers Believes
All Home Abandon' Is Labe
Speaker Would Put on
Current Light
Literature
"The Charm of Some Novel's" was this subject of the Roy, Dr. Samuel McChord Grothens in an old college course at Yale. Mr. Grothens' Crother Cotters is in one of the official student admirals of Harvard. "The charm of the novel," he said the Revered Crother Cotters in his address, "is not so much in the choosing of the subject, but in the choice of the author." Moralities formerly warned the youth against the reading of the novel; it was pointed in an alluring fashion in the today. There is a school of writers and critics who say that the novel only really the presentation of life fits it in. Readily in illusions, truths, or otherwise it could not be诈不诈, it is not the hittierness.
"There is fashion in literature as well as in dress, and the fashion now is a painful representation of the world." (Jane Austen, *Mansfield Park*, novelized and painful critiques.)
"All Hone Abandon"
It is the light literature of the press may, according to Doctor Crothers, which sauces the soups to fall and interest to wine. In the light moods of the book, the characterization of the less talented of people and each should be branched, "All bogs abandon, ye who enter here," in this type of writing which treats the city as a commutation of diseases, both of the fatal," and Doctor Crothers. The principal fact concerning the novel which has charm is that it portrays the lives of creatures, whether the subject be romantic, realist or sentimental.
To Jane Austin, Doctor Croutteens turn to town of a village, delightfully dull, lamentably disjointed and even simplify a character in a world in which it moves freely and lyrics actually. The great writer given to this character is John Doyle, phone in which the character stands forth, a product of its environment. Many authors are content to create stories that mimic the amusements in which he lives.
"I in Cervantes' 'Don Quixote' one area the cracked-brained knight move about with his jolly equine through which he finds himself feels the landscape and the actions of the knight. A kindly humor hero in the novel of Cervantes and charm in Shakespeare's "The Tale of King Lear" England of the 19th century, Hage of Revolutionary France, Joseph Courtnie in his son novels, gives the reader a view in which one finds the character of Don Quixote.
Writer Must Enjoy Subject
Writer Must Enjoy Subject
No writer can be successful in the field without present it interestingly. The characters of Dickens are obvious and vulgar in America, yet in England Doctor Holmes is not only obvious, even delicately vulgar.
Doctor Crothers is fond of the characters in the novels of Henry Fielding, whose characters live and move at Tallier. He is the clerkman of the church of England of the 17th century. In "Main Street" by Sir Ian McKellan, he describes characters deserving of the label "arnery" and be delighted in seeing how very "arnery" they could be. In "The Cocktail Game," he enjoys view of reality' he said.
"In the novel which is to have charm and which is to delight successive generations there must be the impression of that still in the rough, and in addition a peculiar form of have worship. The true picture is that it was the work of a truly American Hunter and not his critic, Thyssirus."

Handel Suggests Changes for Kansas Magazine
Edwin S. Randle, e28, who was the representative of the Kansas engineers at the annual meeting of the Kansas Electricity Conference held a few days ago in Columbus, Ohio, gave a report of the conference and gave a presentation to meet yesterday afternoon.

This would give the new staff time to become acquainted with the magazine and on an app of the proposed changes.

Poteat Presents Modern Aspects of Life in China
Former Shanghai College
Instructor Addresses
Two Student
Audiences
The Chinese point of view toward Christianity, Chinese habits of life and thought, and a general summary of the activities of students of discussion presented to students of the University last night. The principal secretary of the student volunteer movement, who returned last Wednesday in Shanghai college, Shanghai, China. Yesterday afternoon he spoke on "The Revolt of Chinese Youth" at the Shanghai College of Social Sciences in Shanghai college, Shanghai, China. "In China you are first impressed by the fact that you step into ancient civilization," and Mr. Potent, "Thanks for your support that wont on in the time of Moose."
Ancient vehicles are used in China. Modern farm machinery is not known and the wheat is still winnowed in by band.
China religion is chiefly mono- and fear, even the temples hathen fierce that dramatizes punishment; in heart to scare people into being.
The custom of Gish obedience is dreadful in China. The oldest member of a family has his momentary control over the affairs of his family, Mr Potcat told of a 40-year-old man who was swaked by an officer during a plainly as part of his daily duty.
Contacts Effect Students
"The students of China have now come in contact with ideas of natural history and geography, and this regard is regarded as superstition, and the custom of filiality is becoming tacit."
"The government educational system of China is almost broken down because of the rebellion of students," said Mr. Poent.
Students Run Schools
The students now dictate to the teacher. Recently students at the campus wrote several bills in the bulletin board, the substances of which was that the students would run the school.
Mr. Poteat modified his statements somewhat when he explained that all the Chinese students are not taking part in these revolts, and that the revuls may be likened to those staged by other ethnic groups across this country at various times.
In his address to members of the Tianjin commission of the Y. M. G., Dr. Xie pictured the Chinese people as being stable, happy no-lucky, pleased, pacific.
"The moral status of the Chinese people, as a whole, is on a high level but at the present time is being seriously tampered with because of the changing conditions in the government and the people," Mr. Potent pointed out.
"The introduction of science as a study among them has broken down many of the students, in many of the students, without the old religion, customs and laws, have been placed in a bewildered situation from which believance will come, in time,
teachers.
He pointed out that the Chinese formerly had great respect for their teachers because they looked upon learning as a sacred thing, but later, when he started teaching, he took the attitude that they can do anything. "This is the reason for many students to learn at Christian schools," he said, discipline this problem is not so great in the Christian schools" he said, and extreme patriotism and will do anything for their country. In this manner many of the students have more confidence in themselves because they enthusiastically support some new plan, to find that it does not work out. Suicides are natur
Astmets are made in the Christian schools not only to educate them but also to enable them to meet problems to point toward progress and keep a high moral standard in spite of the difficulties from old tradition and customs."
Today noon at the opening meeting of the noon buncheon series of Y. M. C. A. I, a forum at Myers hall, Mr. Potent took a new talk in his discussion of the Chinese and presented their attack on Christianity and Christian missionaries.
Toward religion in general, the Chinese are indifferent. They are of a different tradition than the English, usually awed by sentimentality. They are less interested in the actions of the missionary's government.
