Old Lohn's Translation.

Every one in Boston knows Of old
John the Orange1nan, that picturesque
and almost historical parsonage who
presides over the affections of all Har-
ward men. And every one who knows
John knows also that his life's motto is
that familiar phrase which expresses
briefly and to the point the wish that
Yale may be forever relegated to the re-
gion of sorrow and perpetual darkness.
One afternoon strangers were walk
ing through the yard at Harvard, and
on every hand they saw the college seal
bearing this motto, Christie ct Eccle-
sia."
Not being on speaking terms with
Cicero, Cesar and the other Romans,
this did nothing but to arouse their Gu
riosity.
Finally they met John.
II say!' said one of the visitors. II
see these words everywhere. Can you
tell me what they mean?''
John looked carefully at the Latin in
sciption, bit his pipe little harder and
then replied gravely:
"Oi don't jist know, fr'nd, but Oh
t'ink itmeans To h wild Yale. -
