For the present, at least, the laudable attempt
OF the faculties of several leading colleges to
correct by joint action athletic excuses among
students has come to an end by the decision
yesterday OF the Inter Cole giate Committee of
Faculties to take no further steps IN this direc-
ton. The result is to be regretted, and credit
is due to Harvard and Princeton for their
efforts TO reform notorious abuses. Now, how
ever the matter is chiefly left in the hands of
the undergraduates themselves, and it is for
them TO show common sense moderation in
arranging the rules and conditions of their
sports.

The minority report on the Morrison Tariff
bill is an excellent statement of thecase against
that measure. 1t points out that there is no
demand from any industry in the country for
reduction of the customs duties but that, on
the contrary, every interest heard by the Ways
and Means Committee, except the representa-
tives of the Free Trade clubs, opposed it. The
mere discussion of the bill has hurt business;
to pass ii would increase the trouble, andreduce
workingmcn's wages. a strong point is made
by calling attention to the fact that this bill is
not a carefully matured measure-the result OF
a studious consideration of the peoples inter
csts. These are arguments which any one can
understand So much cannot be said for the
statistics in which the majority of the commit
tee have taken refuge.

Despite the code or no-code quarrel the med
ical profession is still in high favor among
ambitious young men. That vigorous institu-
ton, the Medical Department of the Univer-
sity of the City of New-York last
night turned out over hundred and
sixty new doctors, who are only too
anxious to alleviate all the physical woes
that flesh is heir to. The graduation exercises
at the Academy of Music were made especially
interesting by an address from the Hon;
Chauncey NJ. Depew, which is fully reported
elsewhere in THE TRIBUNE this morning.

There is still hope that some measure may be
passed by the present Legislature for the pro-
lection of the Adirondack forests. After
sharp fight in the Assembly yesterday the
Boynton bill was referred back to the Commit
tee on Public Lands. Its opponents desired to
postpone action on it indefinitely, but they were
defeated by the excellent generalship of ex-
Speaker Hustled. Much remains to be done yet
in this matter, for the BOyntOn bill is not an
adequate measure, nor is the committee to
whose custody 1t has gone particularly favora-
bic to the plans of the friends of the forests.
A point will be gained if some such measure as
that known as the Compromise Bill can be put
through the Senate.

Zone of the most interesting features
of japanese life to me" says a recent
traveller there, twas the manner of liv-
ing IN the boats and junks, thousands
of which frequent every bay along the
coast. The awkward junks always be-
long to the members of n family ;
and usually every branch of the family,
DID and young, live on board.
THE smaller sailboats are made like
a narrow hatboat and the sail-they
never have but one-is placed very near
the stern, and extends from the mast
about the same distance in either direc-
ton II. G. the mast runs up the middle
of the sail when 1t is spread.
SIN these little boats men are born
and die, without ever having an abiding
place on shore. Women and all are
nearly naked, except in rains, when they
put on layers of fringy straw mats, which
gives them the appearance of being
matched. At night, if i'll harbOr, they
bend poles over the boat from side to
side i'll the shape of a bow, and cover
them with this straw, water-tight fringe,
and go to sleep altogether like a lot of
pigs
"a child three years old "a swim
like a fish, and often children who will
not learn of their own accord are re-
peatedly thrown overheard, until they
| become expert swimmers. In the har-
bors children seem to be perpetually
tumbling overheard, but the mothers
deliberately pick them out of the water,
and cutting them a little, go N with
their work. 1t is really astonishing at
what age these boys and girls learn to
scull a boat.
II have seen a boat twenty feet long
most adrOitly managed by three chill
dren, all under seven years of age. !
am told that, Notwithstanding their apt
ness at swimming, many boatmen get
drowned. for no boat ever goes to an
othev's aid nor will any boatman save
another from drowning, because, as he
says, it is all fate, and he who interferes
with fate will be severely punished IN
some way. Besides this, tue saving of
a boaUman's life only keeps a chatting
soul 50 much longer in purgatory, when
It ought to be released by the death of
the sailor, which the gods, by fate, seem
10 have selected for the purI ose."

"A Dream in Marh1e.s

Let that day be marked round with
a m~any-colored pencil OF light when 1
first saw the Tai, writes a friend, from
Agra, India. For that beautiful dream
in marble will stand in my memory,
tinted with the rose of dawn beneath
which first beheld it, and flushed with
the soft evening sky when 1 parted from
it, and between the dawn and moo
rise, as | returned to it again, l beheld
not one Tai, but several. As the
statue at Memnon was said to emit mu-
sic when the sun touched it, n may
say without fable that the changing sky
of the day brings forth varied archt-
|tectural harmonies from the TaJ. Now
it is of the faintest snow-blue tint, now
purest white, and again pink in its re-
sponse to dawn or sunset. One cannot
see it of a sudden. | met an intelligent
lady at the hotel who was disappointed
in the Tai. Toward the evening | met
her seated before the edifice in speech

Or tell the secret of its fascination. The
Tai occupied 20. 600 men for twenty-five
years, and cost e3, la, 1902, and it was
a small expenditure to give the earth
such a jewel on her one 1t would re-
quire a volume to explain the flora of
the Tai alone. In its mosaic oTnamen-
tation the rarest flowers and leaves are
t~raceable, and the way in which these
things Irvine and frame the sentences
of the Koran remind one of the pleas
ant fact that the materials of ancient
literature were the leaves, bark or tab
let's of trees, still preserved in the words
by which we call them paper, library,
book.
At the gateway to the park of the
Tai there is a very interesting little mu-
scum of Buddhist and Jain antiquities,
discovered in the neighborhood. Some
of these are very striking. Among these
are Hindu deities, who seem to haYe
laid aside much of their sensual and
fierce aspect, and ! think one might in
this museum trace the growth Oh some
new religious movement through mod
ifcations of Krlshna and Vishnu up to
the flower of them all Buddha him
self. Beside the Tai flows the Juma,
on whose banks Krlshna dwelt among
the cowherds and milkmaids, charmed
the lowly with his lutte and danced with
the rustic beauties those marvellous
dances where each believed that he was
her partner. 1t is a peaceful, languid
river, with alternating meadows and
sandy beaches, where in the bright
warm morning the mild eyed lotus-eat-
ers were visible, seated on the yellow
sand or bathing in the sacred stream.
The whole landscape vas a picture of
pastoral beauty.

Finger Marks.

A gentleman employed a man to
whiten the walls of n of his rooms.
This whitening is almost colorless until
dried. The gentleman was much sur
prised, on the morning after the cham
Der was finished, to find on the drawer
of his desk standing in the white
finger marks. Opening the drawer he
found the same on the articles in it, and
also on the ~pocketbook.
An examination revealed the same
marks on the contents of a bag. This
proved clearly that the masO with his
wet hand had opened the drawer and
searched the bag, which contained no
money, and had then closed the drawer
without once thinking that any n
Would ever know it.
The whitening which happened to be
on his hand did not show at first, and
he probably had no idea that twelve
hours drying would reveal his wicked
ness. AS the work was all done on the
afternoon the drawer was opened, the
man didn't come again, and to this day
does not know that his acts are known
to his employer.
Beware of evil thoughts and deedsl
They all leave finger marks which will
one day be revealed. Sin dehles the
soul. 1t betrays those who engage in
it by the marks it makes on them.
These may he almost if not quite inyi-
slble at first.
