The firemen on Monday morning
spoiled the' chances of Clinton hav-
ing a new :Cgllegiate 'building''when
they quickly extinguished a fire
which was discovered in the roof of
the one which does ,fluty at present
It was interesting, too, to watch
the expression and listen to the con-
versation of the students, who were
gathered about. These gave ,some
idea of gtke character and ambitions
of The several stunl,nis. The ex-
pressions varied from that of stolid
'indifference 'to that of'consternation:
It
was. lar
p n that so3ne,lvere'worried
as they contemplated the consecfuen-.
ces of the destroying of the Borne o3'
their intellectual combats, while It
was just as plain that 501310regarde5
it as a huge joke and that they were
able to smile at thepcon`sternstion of
the others. The snatches of con-
versation were dust as varied. "Let
her burn exclaimed one •liappy_
go -lucky- student, "Wouldia't she
make a dandy blaze?" But the fire-
men worked on, as firemen have the
habit of doing, ,until the last spark
was extinguished and as a conse-
quence hardly half an hour waslost
of tiro'"precious study time.
