honest pleasure, of manly recreation
and needed relaxation from daily work
and restraint, had and enjoyed, within
the limits of decency and true SELF
respect.
As it is, the typical college boy of the
period, in his unbridlcd indulgence OF
his athletic craze, is rapidly bringing
himself down TO the level of the profess
slonal base ball player who strives for
the spoils, and not the honorS OF the
game. The National Game has long
since become the tool of the sporting
man and the professional gambler, and
the sporting" spirit is aglow. The in
lection has spread among the colleges,
and unless restrained by the strong arm
of collegiate authority, will soon DER
leap every barrier that public esteem
and traditional respect have heretofore
erected in defence of the true dignity
and character of successful college life

More than fifty stNes of
Brandenburgs now bn the

of light colors is again COM
plete and fuller than ever.
Beautiful Brandenburgs!
Exquisite in printing. artistic
in colorlng, but the peculiar
charm is in the stuff itself.
Touch it: smooth as silk. Not
a lump or knot or sCraggly

But not d hint OF weaknessl
Try to tear a bit warp or
wool way, no odds which,
Nothing slimpsy there. Just
as the polish Of culture and
good breeding lifts a man or
woman above the common,
SO the perfect make and finish
lifts the Brandenburgs above
other cottons. Rival? Yes
about as a "farthing dip"
rivals an arc light. The
wonder of wonders is that
Brandenburgs are only 20 cents

1t will be seen that the primary OBJ
ject OF the census is that the Federal
Government shall have an official basis
Tor the appor,Ionment OF Representa-
tiveS and direct taxes among the States.
But the actual enumeration tor these
primary purposes is authorized to be
made Sin such manner as Congress
shall by law direct"
1t is under these last quoted words
| Of the mandate of the Constitution that
the census has been made the vas:
piece of Governmental mechanism 1t is
concerning not only the numbers OF
the people-but most OF the personal,
family, physical, mental, religious, moral
and other social conditions of the -peo'
pie, together with their industrial con-
dlton, as to production and consump
ton, and their economic condition, as
to the possession of property or wealth
These matters are covered for the
present census by the first section OF
the Act of March 1, 1889, IN these
words: "That census OF the pQpHla-
ton, 70ealM and industry of the United
States shall be taken as of the date o.
June Ist, 1890"
The information asked for, as here
tofore stated, is, in some respects, in,
dispensable-as that relating to the ap,
portionment of Representatives ano
TaxeS-and all OF 1t is desirable a:

OLD HARVARD SMEARGD.
Cambridge PAINTED Red in Reahty-The
College Walls spattered, ana the Statue
of the Founder and Memorial Hall Are
Daubed,

BOsTON, Mass, June Harvard Uni
verslty has been outraged again at the
hands of it's reckless students. Last night
the students celebrated with wild orgies
the victory over Yale at Berkeley Oval
Saturday. There were suppers, bontires,
fish horns and general pandemonium.
Two students, who, overcome with en-
thusiasm or something else, deliberately
threw their dress coats into the bonfire
while dancing around the blaze. 1t was
during the small hours however, that the
vandals were abroad, and this morning
Cambridge awoke with sensation. The
college aud neighboring portions of the
city were literally covered with red
Painting doesn't sufa oiently express it.
Doors, fences, house fronts, signs, doors
all were splashed over and daubed with
crimson paint. Ga the college grounds
the handsome statue of John Harvard
was desecrated. HIS face, hands, book
and shoes were bright crimson, and his
clothes striped like zebra On the bean
tiful- carved granite pedestal were daubed
the words, Harvard Q. Yale s, in dozen
different places, the paint being absorbed
into the porous stone, running it. The
step of Appleton Chapel and the sacred
interior were painted and smeared with
red. The beautiful mosaic pavement in
the hall of Memorial Hall was ruined by
high, red letters spelling: ITO hell with
Yale" The freestone carved points of
Seaver & Royleston Hall were similarly
ruined, and dozens OF other bulldogs
decorated. The discovery of all this
raised storm Of Indignation in the city,
and CONSERVATION in the university. The
faculty have been in session all day. They
declare that the Dissertation is the work
of a band of not over dozen students,
acting in concert, who will not only be
expelled, but handed over to the police
authorities. The damage they have done
is inestimable. Wherever the paint has
touched stone, it cannot be removed, save
by chiselling. To repair the Harvard
statue alone will COST over 81 ,OO0 while
Memorial Hall will have to have the in
iured mosalcs replaced at double til acost,
The students have called mass meet
ing for to- morrow night to dennunoe the
outrage, and to start a subscription to
defray as much as possible, the cost of
the repairs. 1t is generally conceded
that this will be the death to sports, and
tho faculty will now prohibit all contests,

The first hot days of June generally
bring in the daily papers the periodic
series of health rules for hot weather.
Some of this advice is wise, much of il
otherwise. One says, ain houses the
carpets can come up, heavy draperies
be taken down, the windows thrown
open and the draught principle-so
dangerous in cold weather-worked for
all it is worth" As to "throwing the
windows open" no good housewife will
accept this advice, unless qualified by
saying "elther in the early morning or
late in the evening"" The true course
to adopt IS to keep the windows closed
during the day, as the exclusion of light
also excludes the heat that accompa-
MES it."

stability you must give, and you will do
1t. Remember, there is no time OF
greater danger than after victory. The
enemy then have nothing to lose and
they are on the alert. They have
everything to gain, and II you
will only remember the correlative that
after victory you have everything to
lose, thcu you will grid on your armor
aud push on to battle, aud show IN
politices the soundness OF that doctrine of
religion with which began-tho doc
trine of the perseverance, of the Saints.

While some of the questions asked
by census enumerators may be reason
ably objected to as personal and in a
measure offensive, yet no sensible per-
son certainly can assign any good
reason for becoming an obStructionist,
by refusing to answer the enumeration
or by throwing obstacles in his way.
The government has made the answer
ing OF the questions most directly per-
sonal a matter of discretion, and it
should be matter OF plain duty with
every one to assist and not hinder the
enumerator in his work. The import
ance OF correct census as the basis
for the apportionment of representation
in Congress and direct taxes among
the States should be fully appreciated
by the people of the States. 1t is not
a purposeless proceeding instituted for
the purpose of annoying sensitive peo-
pie, but IS an important and essential
national work. Speaking of it histori-
caIly the Philadelphia Ledger says it is
in It's fundamental form IN modern times
a peculiarly American institution. The
The first American census (I7oo) ante
dates the first British census (I8oI) by
nearly eleven years. The authority and
duty of the Federal Government to take
it proceeds directly from the Constitu-
ton OF the United States, which com
mands that Representative and direct
Taxes shall be apportioned among the
several States which may be included
within this Union, according to their
respective Numbers. The
