Madison, : Wis.f Jan., 27. The
Bord of. Regents .of, the State ,Unir
vereity held a meeting last night to
consider the subject of. gambling
among, professors and students.. It
wasx expected that, a j statement
would be issued to-day, but - before
the board was ready to act the dis
covery, was made that gambling
was 3 prevalent in fraternity hou
ses that any attempt to stop the
I practice by forbidding the patro
1 nizing of down town resorts would
' be of little value. One student
saitfUo the regents:
' "Every fraternity ,houae t in the
cityjs worse than a gambling hell.

Paris, Jan. 25'. Tolstoi believes
we overeducate our children!
The great Ruasian in a letter to
a fritnd recently spoke at length on
the folly . of dramming -a child's
mind. He favored the suppression -of
the greaterpart of the lessons of
the -curriculum. In- their places,
as occupation for young minds, ha
suggests that children should . learn
to. serve themselves as much as pos-
Bible. -' - ' -
4- The first condition of a -good
education,", ha iay s, "is : to make
the. child feel - that the things - he
uses do not fall from . heaven. Vail
made, but are the work of others."
He thinks it is more important
that children should learn ti make
their own beds, ; brush their .own
clothes and clean; their own shoes
than to know French or .history.
Mis ideal in this matter .is to
banish the lie from the education
of the child. - "VHow can we expect
a child to be sincere," 'he asks,
'when the world is full of lies un
der the benevolent name of social
convictions?"
Vienna, Jan. 3o. There was a
stormy scene in - the Reichsrath to
day over the sugar question, neces
sitating the suspension - of the .sit
ting. A number of : sugar.. jrenoers
met in one of . the committee
rooms without authorization, with'
the object of - 'placing their - views
before the. legislators,,-land the ma-
jor.ity. of the members of the Reichs
rath mdignan'ly. denounced this, as
an attempt to establish, a sub-par
liament within parliament.- The
house -was soon in a slat&of pande
mojoium filled with the shouts , of ?
denunciation on the part of-mem
bers, who wildly gesticulated and
hurled threats at tho3e who had
permitted the "desecration of ther
parliamentary pre.cincts.'' : i "
l.he itting was finally, suspend-
ed in order to allow of the intruders.
being turned ou.t. Pt.thejiouse.- A
number of members of the people's
party and socialists - invaded the
committee room -occupied by the
sugar refiners, shouting, "Out with
the riff rafll" Most of the occu
pants left the room. Those who re- -fused
to go were ejected by force.
On the resumption of the sitting
the Reichsrath ratified the Brussels
sugar convention and then passed
the third reading of the sugar tax
ation bill.
