Want Fresh Ral;0icn.

Quite sensation has been created at
Yale College by the appearance in the
Y ale Conrdht of the following editorial ::
ut Is with some hesitation we venture
upon subject that can hardly have es.
capped the attention of the college at large.
We refer to to the character OF the Sun
day service as now ext ting at Yale That
interest in the Sunday service has been re-
duced TO a minimum Is evident to the
most ordinary observer and can hardly
have escaped the attention of the faculty
Moreover that little benefit Is derived
from the service by the student at large
Is generally acknowledged. Taking into
consideration that attendance Is com
pulsory, and with all due respect to the
faculty, we think we but echo the common
con.ent of the college in saying the Cos
pei, as preached to us. j. not what il should
he. When we consider that four years OF
college life will determine our religion,
conviction in great part, we think the
subject should he presented to US i'm the
best manner possible, and not In such n
way as TO drive Us to skepticism from
sheer ind ference. III we are fed on the
dry hunks of religious conven tionaism we
can hardly be expected 10 develop a prac-
tical and robust christianity to help US In
our daily life.n

THE STATUE.

Ten years ago q number of distinguished
Frenchmen. enthusiastic lovers OF liberty,
met in the city of Paris, and at a grand
banquet inaugurated the project which
found its completion Oct. 18th in the
dedication of the statue of Liberty in
New York harbor. They formed IA society
the Franco American Union of France,
and at once accepted the de,ign of Nj Bar
tholdi whose proposition was the cause
OF The birth OF the society. His plan was,
as everybody knows, TO erect IA colossal
statue in New York harbor, as a mark Of
the respect and friend hip of the French
nation for the American republic. The
city OF Paris sub>cribed 5000. and in le -
than five years the $4,000 necessary for
the completion of the statue had heeu
given 10y the people of France Another
banquet was held to commemorate this
event, and at 1t the formal tender % the
statue 10 the American nation was made.
In the meantime congress had taken
action in the matter by providing for a
New York harbor and for its maintenance
when erected In January, 1877, IA meet
ing of the citizens of New York was held
for the purpose of raising funds for the
erection of the pedestal OF the tatue. The
metropolis was all enthusiasm. but in a
few short weeks the excitement died out
and an appeal had to he made to the coun-
try. Festivals and the sale of min lures
of the statue were among the means re
sorted TO TO raise the necessary funds.
but the subscription reached stand still
when there was still Sl0J,0Oo of the neccs.
sary amount lacking.
At ibis stage OF the proceedings Joseph
Pulitzer who had Just entered the field OF
New York journalism by the purchase of
the then decaying Wor.L took the matter
IN hand aud proposed that he raise the
necessary amount through the columns OF
his paper. With MANY miseivings his
offer was accepted. He announced ~
once that the World was ready TO receive
subscriptions Of ten cents or more, and to
publish the names of the donors to the
fund He struck the chord of human
vanity and accomplished what appeals "a
local pride and national honor had failed
TO do. Thousands sent their dimes and
dollars for the sake of seeing their name
in print. Business men made daily con
tributions while the fund lasted to gain
the advertising which could be obtained
In no other way, and thus the fund was
completed.
IN August, 1884. the corner stone of tine
pedestal was placed in position More
than year ago the Isere brought over the
statue and for some months past work
man have been engaged in putting the
parts together.
