Captain Bullard and Lewis are the veter- ans. Fcnnessy, at No. 7, is the only man who has sat in the boat for two years. He is a finished Oarsman, a reliable man in the race and sets the pace well for the star board side of the boat. Twice has he seen the Yale crew finish ahead of the boat in which he was pulling n well handled oar, and if Harvard loses again this year pre- viOus experience will have schooled him to accept defeat with stoicism. Bullard and Lewis were in the beaten eight last year. Bullard is one of the strongest men on the crew and has an inexhaustible supply of grit.
 Watriss coached the '96 crew last spring, which easily won the class race, and later in the year assisted in the varsity coach ing. Last fall he assisted Mr. Watson in tho coaching for time, but soon took a place in the boat, and Harvard need have no fears for him in the coming race.
 At No. Shepard had the call until the illness of other candidates necessitated a change in the order, and he may yet go back to his old place. He was ill himself for time early in the month, but now seems once more in condition. He is a steady and hardworking but not briRant oar. Stevenson, if he recovers his strength in time, will doubtless TOW at No. 4. He is comparative novice at rowing, having confined his attention in the past to foot ball and baseball. No. seems to be a doubtful position. Damon has rowed there most of the time. He was on the second crew during the early part of the season, and when the first crew went to training table and the second was given up he was rrtained. Thus far he has kept place in the eight. He is rather short and light but hard worker, Chatham and Wright ington have both been tried in place of

Symbols.

Symbolism sets forth the expression of something in nature-ideas which may at first seem entirely foreign to tho picture, yet which convey to the spiritual sense, when developed, a meaning of spiritual importance. In the present age of mate rialism the language of symbolism Is i'm. portant, for those who are able to discover hidden meanings can convey to others that which shall strengthen the belief of a man in spiritual realities. The meaning of symbols comes to onc like the face of a friend in n strange country. They show that when the mind Is unfolded 1t can sec the same ideas.
 The circle, tho cube and squnrc and oth- CT plain figures arc universal symbols. They show that the ancients possessed a knowledge of geometry. Plato said that God gcOmctrizcs the form of crosses in tho southern heavens. The human figu-e is in the shape of a cross. Our word Raster is derived from the Tcutonic word Ostcra- the Goddess of Morning. A feast was in- stituted to commemorate her. The month of April Is called the German Oster monat. The egg is universal symbol, and typl. fics eternity, infinitude. regeneration and rejuvenation. The boat, or ark, was used to symbOlize the preservation of tho seed of life, while the dove sent out was the symbol of new life Among tho Egyptians the scarabeus, or sacred beetle was a symbol of rebirth, resurrection and eter- nal ife.-Philadelphia Press.

Mrs. Louise Parsons Hopkins.

Mrs. Louise Parsons Hopkins has just died at her home in Newburyport, Mass.
 Mrs. Hopkins was well known as a teacher and lecturer. In 1887 she was elected supervisor of schools in Boston, and held that position until March, 1894. when failing health compelled her to resign. She was born in Newburyport and during her early life taught in vari- ous schools of that city. Afterward she was professor of English literature in Swain Free academy. New Bedford
 Mrs. Hopkins was the author of several valuable educational works, indorsed by President Mark Hopkins of Williams college, and Rev. A. P. Peabody, D. D. of Harvard. Her sound judgment, exec utive ability and personal devotion to educational interests were, during many years, of the greatest value. She leaves husband, two sons and three daughters

The woman,s rranslatfou.

We mention with pleasure that the woman's translation, as engineered by Mrs. Stanton, will change the harsh old word spelled he'll, into h-a-d-e-s, which will make good rhyme with la dies. That is a substantial gain for women. We expect some change in the genesis of woman, corresponding to the understanding of little girl who came home from a DanVille Sunday school not long since and said: "Oh, mamma, I know how woman was made. Miss Joy told us all about it today" The fond mother said, Well. darling, how was she nader" The child eagerly re- piled, "Why, God hypnotized Adam, and while he slept God took out all Adams brains and made woman of them" Had Miss Joy gotten some ad- vanced sheets from Mrs. Stanton's new Bible?-Danville Clls.

Ihaven't any patience with women- or men, either-who go about telling unkind things e the people whose salt they have eaten, says Washington woman. I heard Mrs. McGuirk-every- body in Washington knows Mrs. Me Guirk-- say something to a woman of this sort that filled me with delight. It was a well dressed woman, too-a woman who expressed the vulgarity which was in her in this fashion. We asked her where she had been.
 "Oh," said she, with an air, five been to Mrs. W.'s. There was a mob there-a lot of the melodies she bribes to come to her affairs.

Miss May Cassatt.

One of the women who are bee ming famous in art is Miss May CasSatt, an American who has lived in London and Paris for many years. A critic says of her If the signature upon each picture were Hot Mary C;sSatt, it is doubtful, so far as execution goes, whether any observer would suspect that the painter is a woman. Miss CaSSatt $ work is very seldom defiant of her sex It has none of the chip on the shoulder air, as who would say. I am woman, but can paint like a man, that the aggreSSively masculine touch of Miss Beaux, for ex- ample, sometimes suggests. To all ap- pearanccs, in technical attainment and achievement, Miss CaSSatt is simply un- conscious of her sex, and would put him who examines her work into similar mood. Her hand Is quite as firm as q mans It is great deal bolder and morr precise than that of many of hel brethren at homo and abroad

 As on institution of the higher educa- tion, the University of North Carolina, at Chapel Hillj may not be very we'll known outside the south; but in those states which lie on the sunny side of Mason and Dixon's line, and particular ly in its own state, this university is known and honored of all men.
 Especial attention has recently been called to this seat of learning by the centennial celebration which was held on June 5. The exercises of the occasion took place ill Memorial hall, large and handsome auditorium of hexagonal shape, 134 by 13S feet in extent in its greatest dimensions, GA feet high, and capable of seating $500 persons. This hall was erected by the alumni in mem ory of the university's eminent dead, and especially those who were killed in battle during the war The names of the latter are inscribed upon four large mural tablets behind the rostrum. There are 264 names in this list, which is larger than the list in Harvard Memorial hall, and since the tablets were put up 23 additional names have been discover ed by Dr. Stephen B.

The American dressmaker has yet something to learn from her French sis ter. Not the least charming of the many dainty and attractive features of a French gown as it comes fresh from the modiste's box is the delicate perfume it exhales.

 A careful comparison of the Yale and Harvard eights of the past does not show whether it is better to have n heavy crow or light crew. Neither age, weight nor height has had any decided advantage in the long run. The oldest crews have, for example, won times out of 12, the light est times out of I2 and tho shortest 6 times out of 10.
