The Yale college faculty have made a searching investigation of bear frolic which took place shortly after;the Yale Harvard football game in Springfield. It was reported that the animal was bought by a few students and led on a dfunken. carousal one evening. He was forced to drink considerable champagne and other liquors, and was more dead than alive the next morning. It appears he only drank one glass of sherry, and his conduct, as we'll as that of his entertainers, was gen tlemanly and dign1fed. The case caused considerable comment detrimental to the character of Yale students, which appears to,be unmerited. \ <

BRAVE AND GENEROUS.
His campaigns in the Shenandoah val

he was more than cavalry leader OF
corps commander. The resources, the
patience, the skill with which he fought
the battles Of Winchester and vicinity and
sent EARLY "whirling up the valley"
showed that great general had now ap-
peared upon the scene of Stonewall jack
sons fame. This had been the valley OF
humiliation to the national arms. 1t now
became the field of their glory. The
union as we'll as the confederacy was to
have hero of the valley. and certainly
both will be honored as great soldiers so
long as war is the theme of history. The
destruction of the corps of the valley,
which had been used as charge OF un-
due severity on Sheridan's part, is now
known to have been done in the kindliest
manner possible, under the express or

LincOln's RELIGION.

Ihe forthcoming (AuPust) number of the
Century will contain chapter on "Lincoln
and the Churches in the Lincoln History, by
Messrs. Hay and Nicolay, from which the fol-
lowing is an extract from advance sheets:
He was man Of profound and intense re-
igious feeling. We have no purpose of at
tempting to formulate his creed; we question
swift witnesses. who, judging from express
sions uttered in his caliow youth, have called
him an atheist, and others who, with the most
lauda6le intentions, have remembered i'm
probable conversations which they bring for
ward to prove at once his orthodoxy and their
own intimacy witt him. But leaving aside
these apocryphal cvtd tdenees. we have only 70
look at his authentic public and private Mt
terances to see how deep and strong in all the
latter part of his life was the current of his
religious thought and emotion. He continu-
ally invited and appreciated. at their highest
value, the prayers of good people. The pres
sure of the tremendous problems by which he
was surrounded; the awful moral significance
of the conflict in which he was the chief COM
Oatant; the overwhelming sense of personal
responsibility, which never left him for an
hour-all contributed to produce, in tenn
permanent naturally serious and predisposed
to spiritual view of life and conduct, a sense
OF reverent acceptance of the guidance OF
Superior Power. From that morning when,
standing amid the falling snowtiakes on the
railway car at Springfield, he asked the pray
ers of his neighbors in those touching phrases
whose echo rose that night in invocations
from thousands of family affairs, to that mem
oraole hour when on the steps of the Capitol
he humoled himself before his creator in the
sublime words of The second inaugural, there
is not an expression known to have come from
his lips or his pen but proves that he held
himself auswerable in every act of his career
to more august tribunal than any on earth
Tue fact that he was not a communicant of
any church. and that he was singula:ly re-
served in regard TO his personal religious life
gives only the greater force to these striking
proofs of his profound reverence and faith.

FIFTY DOLLARS REWARD.

hereby offer a reward of $50 to any
person who will show from the present
assessed valuation of any county in MIN
nesota. that a majority of all the actual
farmers and workingmen in such county
would not pay directly less money in
taxes under the single tax plan than they
now pay under the present plan. The
single tax men propose to get the same
revenue as now by simply raising the
rate and exempting all products of indus
trial enterprise. Thus an improved farm
would be assessed at the same rate as the
wild land around it, and all buildings,
crops, animals, machinery, etc., would
be exempt. e. j. BUEL,
