CORNELL CLASS RIVALRY.

The Yale News says of Cornell co-education: "there have lately been some remarkably fierce feuds raised between the sophomore and freshman classes of the Northwestern University, which is a co-educational institution. It was begun by the sophomores locking the freshmen up and keeping them away from their class sleigh-ride and banquet. Several rushes of the male members of the classes took place after this, and among the female portion a lively hair-pulling contest was inaugurated. Last Thursday afternoon the freshmen retaliated by capturing several sophomores just as the entire class was about to start on a sleigh-ride. The police interfered and rescued the sophomores. The class then drove to the place where they were to hold their banquet, but found it surrounded by such a crowd of freshmen that they were afraid to alight. The result of the whole affair is that several men are to be expelled by the Faculty."
