But here there was an Interruptioi
of a kind never before witnessed dur
ing any proceedings of the Lumen sc
clety. It came from neither of the dt
haters, who still remained standing a
their desks until the vote settling thei
comparative merits in argumen
should l?e taken. The interruptioi
was from the rear row of seats aion;
the wall, where sat new members o
the society, freshmen not upon th
program of the evening. A loud ..asa
voice was heard froin*this quarter, i
loud hut nasal voice, shrill as well a
nasal, and full of a strange hot pns
sion. "Mr. Chairman!" it cried. "Look

Shocked by such n breach of ordei
and by the unseemly violence of th
speaker, not only the chairman hu
everyone else looked there. A short

lating fiercely; and the head belnngin
to it was a large one with too muc!

there was an impression of ill-chose

recognized this violent Interrupter a
one Ifinski, a fellow freshman who sa
next him in one of his classes. "What'
that cuss up to?" Fred wondered, an
so did others. Linski showed them.
He pressed forward, shoving himsel
through the two rows in front of hit
till he emerged upon the green carpe
of the open spuce. and as he came, h
was cyclonic with words.
"You don't1 put no such stuff as thi

He had begun to shriek; moisture ())
fell from his brow and his mouth; the ^
scandalized society was on its feet. m
moving nervously into groups. Evidently
the meeting was ahout to disintegrate.
"I'll have my say!" the j

The outraged chairman was wholly
at a loss how to denl with the "tin- ,

it. quite truthfully; and he continued
to pound upou the desk, while other "
clamors began to rival LInskl's; shouts '
, of "Put him out!" "Order!" "Shut
up, Freshman!" "Turn imui over to

"This meeting Is adjourned!" bel- 1,1

He had more than that, before the

Cox, democratic candidate for Pros

his fellow democrats to remain tru

straight path, to refrain from tempo

like mad when he mentioned Wooi

and sympathetic hearing?no man o
a political campaign ever had so kin<
ly an audience?an audience so lacl
in* in hostile elements. And the di
iinguished visitor sensed it and T>
gponded warmly to it?and quit speal
ing, not when he had finished, but
striking clock reminded him that tb
hour was late.
In both his public addresses Gove
nor Cox paid glowing tributes to th
ser\ices which Woodrow Wilson ha
rendered his country. "The principle
of Woodrow Wilson are our treasure
heritage," he said at the theater, "an
I shall contend for them as long as

much for our country as has Thome
JefferBon or Andrew Jackson and w
all hope he shall live to see the vind
