Athens Ga., Oct. 6.—The oth
er night the Sophomore and
Freshman classes of the univer
sity both held rousing class meet
ings, the former to formulate
plans to best teach the freshman
to deport themselves more meekly,
and the latter to organize against
the Sophomores. After the meet
ings both clashes paraded the
streets. When almost in front
of police headquarters, the two
met, the Sophomores all carrying
scissors with which to cut the
freshmah’a hair* and the fresh
mans, in turn arrived with pad
dles. A lively melee ensued.
A squad of policemen dispersed
the young'men, who by common
consent, repaired to the campus
where under tjie electric light on
athletic field, the fight was re
newed. The upper classmen and
many town men remained on the
side lines and encouraged the
freshnfeD, who out numbered
the soph mores by seventy to forty.
The sophomores were routed, and
their scissors taken away. Both

and mining engineer, a chemist, a
student and heir to a large for
tune. His father, who was a New
York‘business man, had always
been liberal regarding money mat
ters with his only son.
The father died and the young
man’s mother placed him on an
allowance when she died two years
ago, putting her son’s share of a
$300,000 estate in trust. The will
provided that he was to receive
only the interest for two years. At
the end of that period, the entire
fortune was to be at his disposal.
However, his last extremity
found him almost penniless. Had
he lived thirty days more he would
have been a rich man, and his
widow would have come into pos
session of his wealth without ques
tion or controversy.

P ERUNA _ HAS MANY FRIENDS
among society people everywhere.
They all recommend it as a fine
tonic, excellent for coughs, colds and
hoarseness, to which they are so liable.
Bate hours, irregular meals, the cease

I gradually lost flesh and strength until
I was unable to perform my work

and restored my strength. ” • > .
George Backus, in “Way Down East**
Co.,says: “I know of nothing so effica
cious in the speedy relief from hoarse
ness as Peruna. It is inva.lua.ble to all
persons who use their voice in public
work. It almost immediately relieves
huskiness andrenders the voice strong
and natural.”
Miss Maude Lillian Berry, one of the
leading opera singers of America, writes:
“Long ago my nerve swere in danger of
absolute and hopeless collapse from the
strain of hard work, study and excite

runa and prevailed upon me to take it.
I did, with marvelous results.” '
