Curious Statistics of a Harvard Col
lege Glass.

At recent meeting of the class of 1926
of Harvard College, it was found that on
ly one quarter of their number had died
in the forty years since they graduated.
The first lived seven years, the second
eleven, the third sixteen, the fourth eight
cen, the fifth twenty-nine, the sixth thirty
four, the seventh thirty-fve, the eight
thirty-seven, and the ninth thirty-eighth.
Two of them are not known to have been
in either of the professions, and one of
the living has always been college pro-
fessor. Two became physicians, and have
been some years dead. Thirteen chose
the profession of the law, of whom three
are not living. OF these one was Attor-
ney General and Secretary of the State of
Texas during its independence, another is
the Chief Justice of the United States.
Eighteen, Just one-half of the class, en-
tered the Christian ministry. All but
two of them are living. One lost his eyes
through too much devotion to the Hebrew
points the first year after leaving college
and the voice of another failed after a
most successful ministry of fourteen
wears. He was then an editor and pro-
prietor of the Daily Eperi,lg TrautIer the
first eleven years of its publication. Two
of the class reside in Maine; four in New
Hampshire; two in Vermont; FIVE ii
Massachusetts; one in Rhode Island; one
in Connecticut; one In New York city
one at Washington; three in Ohio; ont
in Michigan; one in Indiana; one il
Wisconsin; one in Minnesota; one il
New Orleans, and one at the HawaiaI
Islands. The class agreed to meet agaiI
at the centennial celebration of the col
lege in 1869.

The sale of certificates In the great

the most enthusiastic could wish, greatly
exceeding the most sanguine expectation.
The prospects are now that the certificates
will be taken up long before the 22d of
September. This great success may be in
part attributed to the general agency of
the National Banks throughout the coun-

is committed the entire arrangement of

..where,s Yonr Entin p.

The Western bound train on the Eaton
and Hamilton Railroad arrived at Eaton
station the other day, when a brakeman
thrust his head into the car and shouted
eaton r.
The cry aroused an old couple of rustic
aspect who had been doing along the
road, bobbing their aged heads together
in way peculiar to old couples when
journeving on cars. Have you ever no.
ticed them? They can't talk because the
noise of the train browns their failing
voices. They get tired watching the tele-
graph poles as they fly past as though on
urgent business in another direction, and
they gradually get drowsy, falling as
leep at about tho same time. They sit
up very firm at first, but soon their heads
nod and roll about, coming together with
crushing results as to the old lady's new
Leghorn, which wakes her up in alarm.
She gives father an admonishing poke
with her elbow, and Is again nOdding.
The old mans head rolls around again,
falls back, his mouth opens, he gives a
snOre and a start, when his hat fall off into
a back street.
Some benevolent person puts it on his
head again, and the drowsy is soon re-
sumed Old lady has a narrow escape
from losing her head as it falls back, re-
covers at by a miracle, and gives a lunge
sideways which nearly precipitates her
into the passage way, while at the same
time the old man "caroms on the win
dow and dives head first on the back of
fat woman in front of him, smashing his
hat over his eyes in an aggravated way.
Eatonl" shouted the brakeman
Eatin' repeated the old gentleman,
tugging away to release himself from his
hat. "Glad ont. I'm dreadful hungry.
Come ma, let's get out and eat"
They stumbled drOwsily along the pass
age and got out upon the platform, look
ing around in a hungry and exceedingly
bewildered manner, but not finding what
they were looking for, the old man in
quires of a bystander;
Whero'e your eGtj1 ?'
This is Eaton" was the reply.
The old couple looked about more be-
than ever. They saw nothing
but two or three trunks, few carpet bags
and truck. They couldn't be expected
to eat such tTtekl
Goodness my /" said the old lady, off
this is your eatin, what air your stomicks
made of
Perhaps you want to go to the viii
lage," said an oblig;ng native standing
by. Follow that street [pointing in the
direction of distant spire about mile,
and you will find Eaton"
"Can't we find any eatin short of a
mile? How long does the train stop2"
"Three minutes"
"Law, ma, let's get aboard. We're too
old to make it"
And the old couple got aboard, grum-
bling at an arrangement which announc-
ed "estin' mile away, and only gives
you three minutes to take it in.-CiHciH-

An apparatus termed kerosene tele-
graph" has been invented in Boston. 1t
consists oftwo small boxes, arranged with
levers fo= opening and closing spertures,
of an inch and half in diameter. An
ordinary kerosene lamp was placed in
each box with a reflector behind it. One
of these machines was taken by Mr.. Cy-
rus A. George (also connected with the
ofice) to a point in East Cambridge, a
mile and half distant from the City Hall
and at 81 O'Clock, (the time previously
agreed upon his signals were received by
his brother who was stationed in the fire
alarm office in the cupola of the City
Hall. He answered them, and they con-
tinued to converse with great ease and
rapidity for for an hour, sending and re-
ceiving messages. They found no diff
Guilty in reading as accurately and nearly
as fast as by the ordinary means of tele-
graphing. With this apparatus the in
yentor believes he could operate, easily
five miles in clear weather, and by in
creasing the power of the light, ten OIL
fifteen miles. An experiment will soor

Yesterday, at thirty minutes past one
o'clock, the London Stock Board quota
ton of the same morning, for United
States Five-twentv bonds was reported to
our Stock Board. The gap of eighty
miles in telegraph communication was
covered by the difference in time. Had
the telegraph connection between Now
feundland and our continent been COM
plete the report of the twelve o'clock
London Board might have reached here
twenty-five minutes past six a. m, Of the
same day.
The Londoners may think because of
their EARLIER sunrise that they can verify
the ancient fable of the early bird and
the worm, but the worms on our side of
the water could hear of the movements of
the birds quite early enough to keep out
of the way.
How comfortable it viii be for the op-
orators in stocks to have all London S
games in the fancies bulletined before
business hours Of the same day. And then
when "Bulls" or Bulls are slaughtered
here, the results OF the carnage can be
kept from our anxious friends on the other
side until the next day. Is it not clearly
a good thing to be in America, where we
can hear of the mischief doing of our
English cousins before day, and keep our
own little disturbances from the gossips
from the Old World till after they have
had their tea parties and donned their
night-caps? 1t is plaiEly evident that
this Atlantic Gable is destined to keep US
in our rightful position of being at least a
ahead. The Russians may disturb US in
that position if they establish a way OF
coming at US from the other direction,
and here we have presented the secret Of
that peculiar inclination of our Prime
Minister to keep on the best of terms with
the Car of all the Russias. He is deter
mined TO win and retain, by diplomacy
what We might lose by a cable across
Behring Straits. Is it not more than evel
apparent that the West is the place to &C
to? The further one goes from the East

Official PRONUNCIATION of the bounty
Law


The official copy of the act of Congress
authorizing the payment of additional
bounty, as published in General Orders
No. So, from the War Department, re-
moves all ambiguity from the second
clause of the bill, and clearly defines the
object of the section. Section thirteen
provides that every soldier who enlisted
after April 10, 1861, who served faithful
ly for two years, was honorably discnarg-
ed, and who vas not entitled to receive
more than SlO0 bounty from the United
States, shall be paid the additional bounty
of $50. The form OF application to be
made by the heirs of deceased soldiers to
the Second Auditor to obtain the addi-
tional bounty thus granted, will be the
same as that hitherto used in applications
for arrears of pay and bounty, except
that the number of the previous settle
ment should be given. It should be sta
ted that the object of the application is to
recover additional bounty provided by the
twelfth and thirteenth sections of the act
of Congress, chapter l78, approved July
IS, 1866, and the claimant should make
oath as to identy, and that the discharge
papers have not been disposed of in any
manner by the soldier whoreceived them.
1t is not believed that the payment of
the additional bounty can begin for some
months to come, as the funds for the pur-
pose have not yet been placed to the order
of the Paymaster General, and the rules
and regulations to govern the payments,
fixing the amount of evidence which will
be necessary to establish claim, and pro-
viding system upon which the disburse-
ments will be made, are yet TO be adopted
by the Commission appointed by the War
Department for that purpose. This Com
mission is nov in session, and composed
of the following officers Major General
Candy, Brevet Major General Barnes,
Surgeon General, and Brevet Major Gen
eral Buchanan, Colonel lst United States
Infantry.
