It is reported that twenty-eight
students have been forced to leave
the University of Oregon at Eugene
on account of failing to pass the re
quired number of semester hours.
Fifteen of these are freshmen. The
severe requirements of the high
student standards set by the faculty
are responsible for the failure to pass
examinations. Thus it will be seen
that the university expects the stu
dents which go out from its halls to
know something, and it is right
they should.

E. R. Bascom, proprietor of the

hundreds of the gulls that are so
plentiful around the Bay during the
winter months when the hard storms
of the coast drive them inland for

the scraps from the restaurant on
the bank back of the castle building
overlooking the bay.
There are

The

Belliui was born In Sicily. lie died
at Puteaux, near Paris, under some

Baron Ayme d’Aquno wrote to a friend:
“I rode out to call on him; but, as usu

to let me iu. Later on in the day there
was a heavy storm, ami at about 5
o’clock I once again tried to see him. j
As no one answered ,the bell I pushed

got into the house. I found Bellini on i

thought that he was asleep. When I ■
touched his band. It was quite cold, for
he was dead."
A curious letter Is published, written
by hint when his "Norma” was hissed
nt the first representation: “I have just
returned from the Scala. Would you
believe It? ‘Norina’ was hissed. I no
longer recognized the friendly Milan

delight the ’ll Pirata,’ ‘La Straniera,'
‘La Sonnambula.’ I have deceived my

Where Parliament Failed.
According to all accounts, the Cam

body of men physically. Not long ago
four of them occupied the least crowd
ed seat In a full compartment ou a
Scotland railway. Just as the train
was moving off a diminutive little cler-
gyaan jumped into the compartment
and tried to edge himself in between
two of the highlanders. Not finding
it very comfortable, he turned to the
one on bis right and said: “Sit up.
please. You know that, according to
act of parliament, the seat holds five.”
The highlander looked at him for a
moment and then replied: “That may

but sbnirly ye canna’ blame me for no I
l>ein’ constructed according to act of
