 Mr. Editor. Or.-Having seen letter ln your paper by " I. s. under the title of Extinct" don't think the village of l.. can lay much claim to the loss of the eagles if it only re- ceived visits from them once in two or three years. Why we of this part of the town re- ceive visit or two every summer, some. times one and sometimes both, and I really think that one tenth of the people never ob. served that they were more than large hawks. 1 am not sentimentalist, but could we go back the time that tbose noble old birds first came te old l.. to live, we should see such changes that it would be almost impossible to believe them. But what l most want to tell you is how those selfsame eagles introduced themselves to me. I was only 12 years old at the time and was with an older relative fishing It must have been somewhere in the vicinity of where the "Island Hotel" now stands. I don't know what kind of fishing he was up to, some fancy work sculling around close to the shore, when from the tops of the trees al- most directly over our heads came one of the most terrific screams I ever heard, and, with 8 great rustling of branches, out came these great birds. Why ! you can't imagine what great birds they are, especially under such circumstances. have often wondered while watching them since if there were many ever got as good view as did at that tune and it was glorious one. That was in the year 1865, can any one tell how much longer they have been here? ALBERT.

In mentioning last week the close of. our registered in the 1st district during the year, and omitted to say that my report of the num- Der not tardy, and of the names of those not absent, had reference only to the last term. In the two preceding terms there we're doubt less ether scholars as deserving of mention as those I named. The number stated as belong ing to the district is correctly printed, being 1e0 But by the transposing of figure I am made to say that the number registered is 651, instead of 165. Anyone noticing this high number. and knowing it to refer to country village, might very naturally suppose our schools to be of such superior character as to draw into our midst pupils from all the re- zion round about
 Another of our widows has departed this life, in the person of Mrs. Phebe Clark, in her 88th year. She was relict of Richard Clark, and daughter of Adin Fancher. and was born ln the State of New York, to which her parents had removed; yet had lived here from infan- cy or early childhood Although during both her married life and widowhood she was in rather strengthened circumstances and obliged to live with severely strict economy, she ever exhibited cheerful disposition, and apparent ly was as contented and happy as any one could be Tn such circumscribed situation. For a long time she fingered on the confines of the grave; but at length her spirit was very quiet ly released from it's earthly tabernacle. Her funeral was attended on Friday afternoon, July 1st, at the Center Congregational church.

The New York Times gives the names of those who pe- utioned to have route from Indian Territory to New Mexico expedited" The mail bags generally went empty, and the original con- tract was for but $6, S30 a year. Seven U. 8. Senators, as many Representatives in Con- gress. Gen.

 and the pay raised to $150,591 8 year, or about twenty-five time the original amount.

Yale College Now and Fifty Years Ago.

In the report of progress read to the Yale alumni by Pres. Porter, last week, atten- tion was called to the falling off in number of Connecticut young men seeking an academ- ic education at Yale and ether colleges. In 1920, there were I'll young men in Yale from Connecticut-about half the whole numbe. then in college. In 1880, there were five more Connecticut men in Yale college than there were Tn 1880, though the population of the State has more than doubled. Two cau- ses combine to produce such result. One is that, fifty or sixty years ago, Yale was little more than high school, as will be seen from the requirements for entry of that day as con- pared with the present. A second reason is the immense increase ID expense. We see it stated in the papers that the average expense to the class of 1881 was little over $95O each per year. This must be more than four times that of half century since. To this must be added the expense of three or four years preparatory course; when in 1880, sin- gle year was probably sufficient In other words college education in 1880 implies seven years time and $5500 in money; as against five years years time and $11O0 in money in 1SSO With such odds against ''liberal' education in our time, the wonder is that 30 many still avail themselves of it.
 While losing something of it's local hold on Connecticut, Yale has much wider range of influence throughout the nation. In 1880 it was college now it is a university. It draws on the Middle. Southern, and Western States for much larger proportion of it's stu dents than any other New England college
 The addition of the Sheffield School and in- crease of the professional departments has fully doubled the number in attendance st college, and with widened range of study and influence it occupies much higher posi- tion among American colleges than it did fifty years ago.
