NAME DORMITORY FOR HERO OF LADY ELGIN Spencer Hall at Northwestern Commemorates Deed of Stuâ€" dent 70 Years Ago Almost seventy years ago, Edward W. Spencer, a student in Northwestâ€" ern university, rescued seventeen perâ€" sons from theâ€"ship Lady Elgin which had foundered in Lake Michigan about ten miles from shore. For more than six hours he went back and forth through the breakers, and has battle that morning with the storm in the lake cost him his health and later his life. > This sct of heroism has become n‘ tradition at Northwestern university. A tablet to Spencer is in Patten gymâ€" nasium. To perpetuate his memory further, the board of trustees of the university has given the name Spenâ€" cev}hnll to the new dormitory at 628 University place ~which will be used ;sâ€"a'l;u;d; center for men, it announced yenenh}: It was about 1 o‘clock in the mornâ€" ing that the news came trickling into the village of Evanston that the Lady Elgin had sunk and that its four hunâ€" dred passengers were doomed. Spenâ€" cer, who had been born on the banks of the Mississippi river and was noted as a strong swimmer, volunteered to kelp in the rescue work. Of the four hundred passengers on the Li_{y Elâ€" Sn e aa0 in â€" gin, only thirty came through "NF breakers alive, and of this number Spencer rescued seventeen. On account of the injuries he reâ€" ceived he was obliged to give up his work in the university. He went to Southern California, broken in health, ‘The world is progressing.

Sanborn, the last of its member to remain in the field. n For more than a year Mr. Sanborn, ' who is a member of the museum‘s zoological staff, has carried on the collection of South American mgmâ€" mais, birds and reptiles, assisted only by two native Brazilian hunters and a camp cook. Durintt.hgttimehcobâ€" tained hundreds of specimens for the museum, and had many adventures, Prominent in his collection are speciâ€" mens for four habitat groups to be installed in the museum‘s hall of American mammals. These are guanâ€" aco, a wild species of llama known as the "South American camel," swamp deer, tapirs, and giant antâ€"eaters. Twenty other species, making a pracâ€" tically complete collections of the large mammals of the hills and | swamplands of the Matto Grosse \ regibm in southern Brazil, were obâ€" | tained by him. Exciting Adventure ‘The story of an exciting adventure with a poisonous snake was told by Mr. Sanborn. On their first night in 8 220 mEWuL t 108. on idb ced boct n : camp in Matto Grosso Mr. Sanborn and his hunters had concluded their evening meal and were enjoying after dinner smokes, when a jararaca, one of the most virulent of South Ameriâ€" can snakes, was discovered under the camp dinner table. . It had apparently been there throughout the meal, and might have bitten‘ them while they lwere eating. Mr. Sanborn shot the snake, a large one, and added it to l his collection. Several Brazilian red wolves, a rare longâ€"legged species, were bagged durâ€" inglchm(h‘thldiuthfilhufim wolves turned savagely froTht‘ime to time upon the hunting dogs, ‘frightenâ€" ing them off: temporarily. Zoological Section ‘The zoological section of the expeâ€" dition originally included in its perâ€" sonnel, besides Mr. Sanborn, George i © ) n soty mm t i K. Cherrie as leader, Mrs. Marshall Field, Curzon Taylor and Karl P. Schmidt. These other members reâ€" turned at various times after comâ€" pleting the particular branches of the work they were interested in. They cbtained for the museum 4,333 spe-! cimens of mammais, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fishes, insects and other creatures. ‘The original expedition also had a botanieal division in charge of Dr. B. E. Dahigren, acting curator of botany, and a zoological division headed by Henry W. Nichols, assoâ€" ciate curator of geology, which obâ€" tained valuable collections for those departments of the museum. SIGHTLESS EDITOR ‘ ACHIEVES SUCCESS B.
