Hon. II. O. Houghton presided, and
among those present were President VI. II.
Buckham of the University and L. NJ Fitch
of West Newton the oldest living alumnus
In introducing President Buckham. the
chairman said: 81 think may say | employ
moro college-bred men than any one else in
the country, and | state this to YOU, who
need not believe me unless you wish to-
regret to say it, but | have my doubts
whether college education is n good thing
for young mau. ! doubt if Il college edu-
cation makes n man patriotic. Then, too
there is a tendency among those occupying
university chairs to attack the system of pro-
lection that has nourishod our manufactures
Our manufacturers are the very ones who
have given the most money to universities
and yet these economists would destroy
them. y
President Buckham was loudly applauded
when introduced. He said in part:-Col-
| lege education is passing through a critical
debate.
\ university should train man for the
work of life as a citizen and a a Christian,
and think there will never be in New Eng

cation, morality and religion

comes to us from the farms of Vermont.

man Within the past three years special
agents of New England have succeeded in
capturing q number of snuggers who have
made unsuccessful attempts to bring furs
over the Canadian border. In almost every
case the smuggler and shipper have been in
dictcd for the offence, but they continue to
violate the custom laws. The consgnees, in
many cases, are innocent of any attempt to
defraud, as an agreement is made on the
other side of the line TO deliver the goods free

Special Agent Smith has received offers of

Here is Ward McAllister bobbing up
again in New York Sunday paper. This
time he announces that a man of wealth has
no right to disinherit a son, no matter what
cause he may think he has for so doing.
McAllster reasons in this way:
The average son of the wealthy man of
to-day is brought up in a manner which is
much different from that enjoyed by the son
Of n man in moderate circumstances. He is
taught to look upon life as anything but a
serious undertaking. At an early period he
is sent to a fashionable school and then to
college, where he is provided with every
luxury and comfort and is made to feel that
ne is in some way superior to his less wealthy
companions. After leaving college, he is
usually sent abroad, where precious
portion of his existence is used
up in pursuits which if not vicious are at
least unprotitabe When be gets to be
about 30 years of age, he is utterly untitled
TO cope in the battle of life with other
young men who have been devoting their
youth to training themselves for business or
for a profession. 1t would be manifestly
unfair, therefore, to suddenly deprive such
person of his means of support and cast
him out to fight, thus handicapped, against
an unsympathetic world, y
While it is undoubtedly true that too
many sons of too many rich men are So
brought up that they are utterly incompetent
To earn even the salt that they require after
reaching the years of manhood the Saun-
terer fancies that New York niliOnaires
will continue to regard the action of their
sons in marrying adventuresses as a suth-
cient ground for diSinheritance.

THE SAUNTERER
Finds tho Sun More Powerful Than Even
the Board of Aldermen Other Matters.

[From Saturday. Daily Free Fressl
The warm sun of the past week has done
what the Board of Aldermen failed to
bring about and the sidewalks of the city
are free from snow and ice For day or
two after the Board instructed the superin-
tendent of streets to enforce the ordinance
there We're some indications that an effort
was really going to be made toward keeping
the walks in good condition. But the spasm
of virtue was soon over and thereafter resi-
dents were left to do as they liked about
clearing off the snow. Many made no at
tempt to put the walk in front of their
houses in passable condition. In course of
time the snow pillow appeared, made a zig
gag path and packed down a good portion Of
the snow. With thaw this snow became
slush and still no attempt was made to re-
move it. 4 cold snap transformed the slush
into ice and people were obliged to take to
the road, the ice remaining until covered up
by the next snow storm. This was the or
der of things all winter. If the aldermen
and superintendent of streets havn't the
powor or the backbone to enforce an ordi-
nance why not repeal it
