ch..p Board Al Harvard.


A change is to be proposed at Harvard
Memorial hall That fact ia now well
known here, but the details Of the
changes are unknown TO the public.
From a lint, however, | surmise that
this great dining room, the largest in
the world, now seating 750 men at meals.
Is TO substitute for the system Of regular
table d'hote restaurant style. in order
TO accommodate more students. Every
visitor to Harvard has seen "the lions
feed" as the students express It, and
yet, presume, few realize the amount
of food necessary to satisfy the appetites
Of those lusty young fellows. Would
you see the figuresa Here they stand as
given to me by one of the guardians Of
this great dining hall:
Every day there are consumed l50 gal
Ions of soup, 15Q pounds Of fish, 1850
pounds of meat and poultry, 8 barrels Of
-four, IS bushels of potatoes, $50 pounds
of table butter, 300 pounds of sugar, 45
pounds of oatmeal, 80 pounds Of cracked
wheat, besides other articles in like pro-
portion. The entire service is under the
charge Of the students themselves, as
sisted by the faculty, and is run on the
cooperative plan, the board being fur
.nished at cost. That cost Is never al
lowed to exceed "a q week, and often
runs below $3.50. But now movement
is on foot to make it even lower, and the
outcome will revolutionize the CASTRO
nomic system at Harvard.-Cor. New

What are our very earliest wild flow
ers, and how early have we right to ex-
pect spring flowers? Perhaps the reader
thinks this is not timely question; but
it is, because the flowers are just coming

our well known botanists, once favored
The Listener with some hepaticas which
he gathered in November, and he writes
that he has found some in October, too,
blooming in the Middlesex Fells. From
this time on he finds them blooming in
the fells every month until May; his
latest date is May T..
He tells also of trailing arbutus gath
cred at this time Of year in Williams
town. Both are spring flowers; and II
they bloom in November and December.

counted among the spring months-by

"Hunters who go to the middle divi-
sion OF, Roberts Island ought to be
warned to be careful Of their horses"
said Mr.. Ditz.
"What danger are their horses IMP in
quired a newspaper man.
"They are liable to be burned 80 badly
they will have to be shot, said Mr.. Ditz.
"Already this season two hunters have
lost their horses in that way"
"How did that occurg' was asked.
cit was due to the burning peat" Mr..
Ditz said. "You see, the land over there
is made ground and the peat is easily
ignited. What makes this fire danger.
Gus is that it gives off no smoke, and
hunters may ride through the peat with
out being aware that it is scorching the
legs of their horses. When they turn
off from the road they go through long
stretch Of this peat to reach the waters
edge. The horses legs sink down in
this soft ground and he suffers as much
as If he were walking through furnace.
The peat may be burning where the
hunter ties his animal, and there the
horses legs will continue to be roasted
until his owner returns and sees the
agony he is in"
Mr.. Ditz went ON to say that it has
not yet been found out how the peat was
ignited.
eft may be due to spontaneous COM
bustion," he said. tsThe heat Of the sun
beating down on such dry and infam-
mable stuff is liable to set it on fire.
Some people say that the hunters have
caused the fire, and others that it has
been caused by burning up the stubble.
No matter how it was caused, though,
horses have been killed by it. They
have not been roasted to death, but have
been so badly injured that they have had
to be killed, and hunters ought to be in
formed Of the danger. Stockton Re

rampsring with Another Mans Mali.

A story of how well known sporting
man put his guardian to the expense of
5000 by an intended joke has just
leaked out. 1t seems that the guardian
had some business affairs that were be-
ing contested in the courts and needed
special attention ON account Of the big
amount at stake. The sport knew of
this, and in order to make himself popu-
Lar in his own eyes formed the idea Of
intercepting the mail in connection with
the business affair. 1t CHANGED that
about this time settlement was offered
by one of the persons on condition that
it should be accepted Immediately. This
offer was the first thing taken, and for
the next week the contents of it were
published pretty thoroughly in the city.
At length, when things neared a climax,
the facts were confessed, but that did
not prevent the outlay of $4,000, because
the offer was not accepted sooner -

The banks are getting down to hard
pan, and nobody realizes it more keenly
than Holyoke real estate broker, who
sold piece of property to the Roman
Catholic church authorities in this city
He received acheck for 81, 100 from Bish-
op O'Reilly on a Springfield bank and
presented it for payment. The teller
could not pay him in bills and urged him
to take a certificate Of deposit, which,
however, he would not have. Conse-
quently he was obliged to get an express
wagon and number of soap boxes to
convey to Holyoke the metal which be
received. He got $500 in gold coin and 800
silver dollars. Safely in Holyoke with
his precious load, he could not induce
his bank to take it, and has been forced
to pay the coin out in the transaction of
business. Springfield Homestead

Tears.

Spurgeon calls them the diamonds of
heaven. They have a strange, and yet
blessed mission. We know not all the
purposes Of God in the ordeal Of sorrow
to which we are liable. We learn some
things of nature. Sunshine and calm
are not the continued conditions of
growth and beauty. Cloud and storm
are q part of the plan. This life is q
discipline. Tears have much to do
with moral and spiritual growth and
beauty. We now look only on the
dark side of sorrow. It has bright
side. Joy is not all measured by smiles.
Gayety Is not true pleasure. If there
were no minor tones in music, 1t would
fail of its highest Office. The heart is
wonderful realm. It does not all lie
like q garden in the sunlight. 1t has
profound depths like the dark caverns
ofearth. There are deep springs there.
The murmur of those fountains is all
the more musical for the solitude and
the darkness. Tears even have mission
of affection.
The weepers of earth are beautiful
messengers of blessed and holy things.
Teare withdraw US from the realm of
the sensual and vain to the emotions of
the pure and heavenly. The proph-
cts were weepers. Jesus wept. o, the
wealth of his tears! He wept to make
us glad. He went forth weeping that
he might return bringing his sheaves
with him. What trophies those tears
will bring. What everlasting songs
shall come of his grief. Tears of child
hood, how beautiful! What would a
fearless childhood be here? Tears of
innocence! How we clasp little grief
torn hearts to our own! Tears Of q
mother, how remembered In after days.
How many have been shed over US
when we have never seen shed over US
when we have never seen them flow.
Manly tears. We have seen strong
men weep-weep for sin, weep with re-
gret. Let them flow; heaven loves
them; they water the moral desert OF
this waste world.
The weeping time will end. Out of
this land of tears the mourners will go,
But the victory will remain. The joy
of the morning will abide. Tears have
no atoning merit, yet they are blessed.
Treasured In memory they shall live.
Because of them our love has been
sweeter. joyful tears In heaven, no
doubt, their memory will shine, more
beautiful than all earthly bliss. Be ours
only tears ofpity, of penitence of love,
not of remorse and despair.
