Exploded Traditions at Old Yale.

Both South college and the Athen@um
have their now blasted traditions AS
to the former, it has been allegedin New
Haven-and at .Teast one prominent ar
cheologist has indorsed the story-that
about the time the college was built
there was q mysterious hiatus Of grave
stones in the old cemetery on the New
Haven green. The tradition then averred
that these stones had been built into the
freplaces of South college, where they
would be found when the structure was
pulled down. Here was the fine hint for
a college ghost story, based on spectral
apparition of the affronted owner of one
of the stones, but, if ever penned, it is
outlawed now by the discovery that
every fireplace in Old South was of SIM
pie brick.
Then, again, President Stiles diary
notes the confession of student that he
had stolen the college Bible, dropped it
between the courses of mason work dur
ing the building of the Athen@um (1768),
and that there the sacred volume had
been bricked up-a myth proved so now
by the fall of the Athen@um's walls
without the flched Bibles temperance.

A petition was filed with the county
clerk yesterday for presentation to the

The petitioners gave the following rea-

"We have once paid for grading and

He whom / loved so wcll
Is in his long, long sleep.
Yet lament him not,
For he told me not to weep.
More dear to him the grave
Than could ever be,
For though go to him,
He does not come to me.
l envy not the grave
What yesterday was mine,
But bow my head and say,
Keep him, for he is thine.
But keep not, grave, my youth,
Which cannot profit thee.
My smile and my light step
Oh, give them back to me-"
But the grave answered, mo.
For these things still are dear.
Since he, deprived OF them,
Would be too lonely here"
Then to the dead pray,
Restore my youth to me,
That when we meet again
be not old to thee!"
But he nor hears nor secs
For his eyes like mine are dim
So to his grave come
To get them back from him.
For only in the grave
Are tears no longer shed
And the living happy made
Beside the happy dead.

AsToRs AND VANDERBILTs.

There Is more significance in the prefer
ence certain wealthy Americans show for
the Old World and for the old order of
things than appears at the first glance
When an Astor goes to London to reside
and Vanderbilt orders crack yacht built
at an English shipyard they furnish con-
spicuous examples of what the class to
which they belong are doing in their every.
day life. The aim of rich American girls
is TO attract sufficient attention in European
society to cause themselves TO be selected
as partners in a matrimonial venture TO
which the wife brings money and the hus-
band social rank and. perhaps, title. THIS
aspiration might be dismissed as a feminine
fancy, which would pass away as the for
tunes change, but little inquiry shows that
in most eases their American fathers lend
themselves to these daughters whims.
America seems to be good enough for poor
people, but its republican features cease to
be attractive as soon as a man finds himself
possessed Of means to glitter in Old World
society. The doctrine that all men are free
and have equal civil and political rights is
we'll enough until a man is in a position to
move in what Is termed the ten thousand.
When an AstOr moves over to London and
a Vanderbilt vibrates between London and
new 1oIk, ordering everything out tFeSn
milk and garden vegetables in the former
city, the question suggests itself if these
rich families are loyal to their country.
Could they be trusted in responsible posts at
which great service might be rendered their
country and correspo nding harm be done
it? Vanderbilt is having model yacht
built in England. Vanderbilt has a legal
right to order yachts from whom be pleases.
But there has been some good W ork done in
American shipyards within a few years.
Several war vessels have been built which
are pronounced by experts the most formid-
able of their class atloat. Ii Vanderbilt
had ordered his yacht built at an American
yard with the understanding that he wanted
the best yacht. all things considered, in the
wGrld he would have stimulated the inven-
tive faculty which has done SO much for the
honor and profit of the country. But Van
derbilt does not seem TO take much pride in
the country which has permitted him to
become Que OF the richest men in the world.

RECREATION AND FRIENDSHIP.


An Eastern paper writes with commenda-

where social meetings over a game of bowls
orbillards ripen the personal acquaintance

able incentive to stay in their own neighbor-
hood instead Of returning to the city in
search Of pastime. American visitors to

fcation the pleasant gatherings of friends
over games in the suburbs of towns, and
doubtless regret that their own attractions
in this direction have been neglected. In
