Thirty-lour members of I lie junior class in the Grand Ifapids Veterinary coIIcim* walked out of a class room today when two negro students entered to resume their studies. Because of the objections of oilier students the colored men had been denied admission when they returned to eol)gv this year and Uin negroes appealed in tin' courts. .Iiylge I'erkin's n.audamus re)|iiired the college management to admit the two colored students on the ground that the college being a i|uasi-pub1ic ius|ilution had no right to discriminate against eiti/ens because of their color. After i"day's strike the school authorities suspended the entire junior class, including the two colored students until uc\t Wednesday. TRAIN KILLS LITTLE BOY.

'Is the widow going out of favoi in the marriage market?" 1 askei the registrar of a populous district of London. "Oh, decidedly," he replied. "Yon know that fewer people of evcr\ kind marry now than formerly. Thirty years ago, out of every hundred marriageable people about six would inarrv in anv year; now the number if less than five. Hut the widow's ehanees have declined far more than he spinster's. "1 can only explain the matter clearly in figures. Thirty years ago the widow was exertinely popular among men about to wed. She was always so since we first began to keep account of marriages, bu| from 187'f to 1877 she carried all before her. "You must remember that there art many more spinsters than widows in the country at all ages up to 10, and especially up to 110 or "Now, the great marrying ages foi \ women are from 10 (o 28 or 30. Yet BH "i -pile of (lint fact nt 1 iio time ] g speak of no fewer (linn ten out of B every hundred of the year's brides I V were widows. What is the number ^ now? Just six. The widow of 1000 is only hnlt as popular as the widow ^ of 187G. "Hut it must not be supposed that I he widow has dropped entirely out ol fashion. Nothing of the kind. She is gradually losing her supreme posit ion, but she still has a derided ad van I age over the woman who has never married?and this at all ages. "The young widow is preferred lo I lie young maiden, and the middle aired and elderly widows have it nil their own way. K "I must give you figures again, foi !l in I I here is no other way of making | p< | true comparison. H j "l'|i lo the age of 'JO there are i , , i praet ieally no widows.
