REVIEW OF WAR SHOWS
CONTINUOUS FIGHTING
Irish Revolt Draws Interest of World;
Sir Roger Casement May Give
Up Life
Much of the world's interest for the
past week has been centered on the
Irish revolt which is being weeded
out by the British troops in Dublin.
Several of the captured Sinn Fein
leaders have been executed, and Sir
Roger Casement seems to be in line
for similar treatment. Fierce local
engagements on the Franco-German
front accompany the sending of the
German note to the United States. The
White Star liner Cymric has been
among the list of torpedo victims for
the past week,
The German note, though not en-
tirely satisfactory to the American
government, seems to have been re-
ceived with some perplexity in govern-
ment circles. Minor details are stillj
causing considerable dissension in the.
State department. While excitement
over the German note has begun to
settle somewhat, however, the trouble
with Mexico has been complicated by
the ordering out of militia of Texas,'
Arizona and New Mexico into the field.
This action followed close upon a cab-1
inet meeting concerned with the de-
mand of General Obregon that the
United States authorities set a time
limit on' the "occupation" of northern
Mexico.-
Furious fighting has been going on
almost continuously about Hill 304
in the Verdun sector. Contradictory
reports come the same hour from both
Paris and Berlin as to the victory
of attacks and counter attacks on that
hill. Action is being anticipated on
the Belgian front, where a large force
of British has been assuming the of-
fensive.

YALE GETS HALF MILLION
Late (. 1'. Harkness of Standard Oil
Company Remembers Alma Hater
New York, May 9.--A $500,000 be-
quest to Yale university was contained
in the will of the late Charles W.
Harkness, Standard Oil company di-
rector, which was ad:nitted to probate
here today. Harkness graduated
from Yale in '83 with an A. B. degree
and was afterward a student at Co-
lumbia Law school.
There is no indication in the will
as to the total value of the estate,
though Mr. Harkness generally rated
as a multi-millionaire. The dece-
dent's stock in the Standard Oil com-
pany is bequeathed to his brother, Ed-
ward S. Harkness, making the bene-
ficiary the third largest stockholder in
the Standard Oil company. There
was also also a bequest of $350,000
to the New York Presbyterian hospit-
al and one of $25,000 to the "Lend a
Hand" mission of Cleveland.

That "Cosmopolitan Michigan" is
more than a mere slogan is shown by
a series of statistics compiled by Reg-
istrar A. C. Hall in replying to a ser-
ies sent him by the librarian of the
University of Washington.
According to the report from the
western university, 50 per cent of the
students attending 20 of the leading
universities and colleges situated out-
side great cities, covering a period of
14 years, have come from within a
radius of 50 miles. At the University
of Washington itself, 75 per cent have
come from within that distance.
At Michigan, only 28 per cent come
from that -radius, while 42 per cent
have homes within the 100-mile circle.
The remaining 30 per cent come from
a wide area ranging from neighboring
states, to the students from Japan and
China.

Whitney Theater for three days, start-
ing Thursday afternoon, May 11. Grif-
fith took his photographic and player

CLARA LOUISE KELLOGG DYING
Once World's Leading PrimaDonna; Is
Suffering from Cancer.
Winsted, Qonn., May 9.-Mrs. Clara'
Louise Kellogg Strakosch, at one time
considered the world's leading prima:
donna, is critically ill from cancer at
her home, Elphstone, six miles from
here.
Twenty-five years ago Clara Louise
Kellogg, in the full flush of her stage
triumph, settled down on her beauti-
ful Connecticut estate.
She was the first American woman
singer to gain in Europe recognition;
for the new world. She was one of
the best "Marguerites" that the opera
of "Faust" has ever seen. The Ital-
ian school was best suited to Miss
Kellogg's coloratura soprano, and
she made many notable appearances
in "Rigoletto."
Bragg to Address Fresh Engineers
Prof. E. M. Bragg, of the marine en-
gineering department, will speak at
the fresh-engineer assembly today on
the subject, "The Field of Marine En-
gineering." Prof. Bragg will speak
mainly of the marine engine.
Prof. Trueblood Out of City
Prof. T. L. Trueblood of the oratory
department has been in Delaware,
Ohio, since last Saturday, visiting a
friend who is seriously ill. He will
probably return today.
Reports Prof. Allen Still Improving
A slight improvement was reported'
yesterday in the condition of Prof.
John R. Allen, of the mechanical en-
gineering department, whose right eye-
ball was removed Saturday night fol-
lowing an accident which occurred
at his farm near Potter's crossing.

To prove that a majority of our ties
and silk stockings and many other
things are made from wood is the aim
of one of the features of the exhibition
given by the different departments in
the New Science building and the
Colleges of Engineering and Architec-
ture during the week of the May Fes-
tival.
A model will be made by the forestry
department showing the large num-
ber of stages the wood goes through
before it becomes wood pulp. Differ-
ent models will be constructed to
show what things are made from the
pulp.
The recent use of wood pulp by the
Germans to make cotton in the use
of explosives has brought up many:
new uses for wood pulp. Silk neck-
ties, hose, cigar and cigarette hold-
ers, fancy combs, umbrella handles,
films, cellulose, papier mache and sev-
eral hundred other useful things are
now being made from pulp.
GRADES TO BE OBTAINED
BY ENGINEERS TOMORROW
The mentor cards in the Engineer-
ing College are being made out this
week and will be in the hands of the
various mentors after 4:00 o'clock on
Thursday. There has been some con-
fusion in the past because of students
calling for their grades too soon.
The instructors are to have the cards
ready this afternoon, and will deliver
them to the mentors before tomorrow
afternoon, so that they may be ob-
tained by the students at that time.

Adrian, Mich., May 9.-The annual
senior reception at Adrian college to-
night for the college graduates is
likely to be stripped of some of its
customary brilliance, unless the un-
der class men return the seniors
caps and gowns, which were taken
yesterday.
The regalia was shown for the first
time a few months ago and on the
day the dignified seniors marched in
chapel in their flowing robes the ju-
niors trailed clad in gaily-colored bath
robes.
Yesterday the seniors held a meet-
ing and learned that every cap and
gown in the class had been stolen.
They were still missing this morning
and the seniors are wondering what
they will do for the reception tonight.
