About tlio titun tho attention was riveted on this there was another call to "look, look,” aud in still auotlicr ring two women were performing on u sphere. Now a man felt he could not alford to ml*s uny of tlieso things, und so It was a glnuco here and n glance there auit a taste of thi* and a tanto of that nit tho way through. It was something hko whirling through n beautiful laud on n slxty-mile-iiu-hour tntlu. A gleam of silver and tho lnko was far In the rear.

Oxford, Oct. 6.—(Special.)—During the past fsw days wbUo the political situa tion tins been discussed throughout the slot* and the subtle politicians have been most active In their work, the students of Emory College havo been us greatly Interested In the subject of elections as any people In any section of the elate. Yesterday the students who are of ngs and have been In Newton county more than elx months went over to Covlneton preclnnt nnd polled between to and 100 votes for the straight Democratic ticket. We ah rejolco In the triumph of Dem ocracy. There wee an election of yearly officers of the Freshman class of Emory tnli af-’ ternoon, which for genuine excitement and real fun has not been equalled In our community for mo time. The of fice of dux ws* the mn»t hotly contested. The candidates were Mr. C. 0. Smith, a non-fraternity man. and Mr. Cart Mur phy. Sigma Nu. The contest waa Intensely exciting und for a long lime It wo* al most Impossible to have any Idea of the ■ esult; After some time tho name ot Mr. Smith waa announced aa tho successful candidate, and for several minutes the crowd shook tho building to tta very foun dations with thrlr tumultuous shouts ot applause. Mr. Smith Is a gentleman of unquestioned ability as a presiding officer and will make a.dux of whom the Fresh men may well feel proud. Tho next business In order was the elec tion of historian. Mr. Henry Whitehead, the popular CM Phi from Macon, was electrd to this position. The only position not contested wao that of chorister. Mr. F. It. Houser. Phi Del ta Tints, waa unanimously elected. Mr. llouser Is one of tho brightest men tn tho class and Is a leader In nil depart ment* of music. The other office to be filled was that ot poet. Mr. Dullard. AlpVu. Tau Omega, was elected. Mr. Dullard is peculiarly blessed with the gift of poesy end some of bis productions have greilly del cbied hie friends, who have great hope* for the future of Hite gift'*} young man.

GlltL WAS A BOY. ho caso of the Brooklyn boy criminal who, In the 'course ot ouc day recently, waa Judged to bo a girl aud a few Uoure after that n boy and who lived both aa a girl and as n l»y without raising any suspicions, to far surpassed, says the Now York Recorder, tn extraordi nary Interest by that ot it young Swiss who passed all hla life us a girl until a month ago. Ho wn* known by tho name of Lnuru Hesuar aud eame of a good family- Why b.s friends should lutvo registered tho child as a female aiul subsequently kept up tho decep tion la it matter of mystery. Tho young man la said to have found tho compuntoushlp of the weaker sex very pleasant and would probably havo con- tinned to frequent tho society of young women as ode of thc.r number hail ho not fallen In love, but lu order to woo aud win the Indy of his choice ho de clared his proper sex. Tho earlier yean of his life were spent In a con vent school, on leaving which he stud ied a cure for stammering, and subse quently founded a school for that pur pose. This was «o succesaful that In a few years ho amassed 40.UUU francs ami then decided to study mcdtdue. With this object ho entered oa a stu dent at Grenoble School of Mediclno ns it woman, and to nil outward ap pearance* was one. Ills features were distinctly feminine nud nothing In the shape of n moustache or whtskeru was to be observed. In every way he com ported himself as a female and seeiued quite at ease In the character ho as sumed. The only th.ug which might havo betrayed him, perhaps, was a slight suspicion of masculine in hts vokxx This, however, waa scarcely sufficient to attract special notice.
