AMHERST COLLEGE NOTES.

There were two st. Johnsbury Acade-
my boys in the class that were gradual
cd from Amherst this week, William J.
Boardman of Barnet and J. {. Coolidge.
Mr.. Boardman delivered the ivy poem
before the class on Tuesday, and the
same afternoon Mr.. Coolidge gave the
grove address, the humorous address OF
class day. Mr.. Boardman was also
awarded the Kent prize in English litera-
ture of 500. He will teach for the pres
ent, and then take a postgraduate
| course.
The June number of the Amherst Liter.
airy Monthly is completely filled with
tributes to President Seelye by eighteen
different contributors. DR.. Charles NJ
Lampson, formerly OF St. Johnsbury
writes of him as The Spiritual Man, u
and Prof. William S. Tyler contributes a
brief but comprehensive biographical
sketch.
The class of 1915 held their 50th re-
union this commencement, and four out
of the . members of the class that are
living were present. Rev. Josiah Tyler
of St. Johnsbury was member of this
class, but unable to be present. The col
lege gave him the degree of D. D. We'd
nesday, and the honor is very fttinglv
given.
Rev. !. Boardman of Barnet attended
the commencement to see his son gradu-
ate and also to be present at the reunion
of his class, the class of 1855.
The most enthusiastic reunion of the
week was tho 10th reunion of the class
of IS, of whom ST. Johnsbury Academy
furnished three members, Jason Human
OF New York, Arthur Stone and the late
Prof. F. w, Phelps. OF the so odd grad.
yates in this class 80 were present at the
reunion. At the memorial exercises
around the class ivy and also at the ban.
quot, fitting tributes were paid to the
memory OF one of the brightest of the
younger graduates of the college, Prof
Phelps.
Rev. DR.. &. NJ. Lamson, who is one OF
the trustees OF the college, presided at
the annual meeting of the Alumni associ
alton on Wednesday as president OF that
body.

John E. Harris has sold the Hardwick

ACROSS THE BORDER.

Canada has just completed and
opened the $500" canal, around the
SAUL" or falls OF St. Mary's river
connecting lakes Superior and Huron.
1t is nearly three and a half miles in
length and the total cost has been
$5,0OO,000. This work has been in
progress about six years, and its
completion this month helps to make
June remarkable for canal openings.
The Manitoba school question is
yexing Canadian politicians just
now. The action Of the legislature
OF that province in endorsing the ac
ton of the executive in refusing to
comply with the order issued by the
Governor General in council to pro.
vide for separate schools for Roman
Catholics as guaranteed at conieder-
alton, is highly embarrassing to the
conservative government, and may
result in its defeat at the polls at the
next election.
Another little difficulty is also
caused by the Catholics. The Canadi.
an senate is the only machine for
producing divorces for most of the
provinces of Canada and inasmuch
as divorce is not allowable under the
rules of the Roman Catholic church,
the members of that faith in the SEN
ate have proved stumbling block,
and the divorce committee senator's
have had so much difficulty in per.
forming their duty that they have
gone on strike, and resigned. Some
thing will have to be done, for
divorce seems to be a thing some PEG.
pie must have in these days, no matter
what the cost-and it does cost in
he Canadian senate; not less than
$150000 even when undefended, be-
ing the expenses of suit 1t is in
teresting to note that in Prince Ed
ward Island, where the executive
council is the divorce court, only one
divorce has been granted in forty
wears.

TO IMPROVE OUR VOICES.

An association, having for its OBJ.
ject the improvement OF the voice in
speaking, is about being formed in
New York, and about one hundred
people anxious to raise the national
standard of speech arenterested. 1t
is an acknowledged fact that there is
room TOR vast Improvement in this
respect, and the new association has
its work cut out. The elocution
teaching of the day has apparently
no beneficial effect on the ordinary
conversational tone, but on the con-
trary appears to do harm by cult
waiting the disagreeable high pitch,
which so easily becomes either a
squea or whine, and is at all times
trying to sensitive ears. All success
to the Improvement society, which
we presume, will begin its labors at
home, and show us how it ought to
be done.

The death penalty has been restor-
ed in Michigan on the ground that
the crime of murder is on the in
crease. 1t is generally found in the
end that a soft.hearted policy
towards wrong.doing of any kind is
foolish, and so long as human nature
remains tainted with original sin
severe penalties will be needed to
keep mankind from becoming la w
less. The death penalty is not
pleasant thing, but it is better than
frequent murder.

upon the heroic service of the great army

ginning of the year the Congress :has
passed an act, which was signed by the
President, expressing the deep interest of
the American people in an American canal
across the American isthmus, which will be
the highway of a mighty commerce be-
tween the two oceans.
simultaneously, we have had the most
extraordinary claims and movements of
England in Nicaragua. We have, too, the
covert suggestion from her foreign office
that the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, long since
treated as abrogated at our election, is still
in force"
The essential point of Mr.. Dickinson's
address was that without being Alarmsts,
and without wanting any more wars, it is
the policy of wisdom to look these facts in
the face, and while exchanging polite
phrases" in any time of after-dinner eXu-
berance "to keep an eye on our good friends
across the Atlantic, especially when, hav-
ing appropriated Africa, the islands and
even the rocks of the sea, and wherever
else force or intrigue may gain footing,
they begin to take an interest, not alto
gether born of curiosity or of a purely
Outstanding spirit, in this hemisphere"
81 think you will agree with me-" the
speaker said in conclusion, "that patriot
ism and good craftsmanship alike applaud
the increase of our navy and demand its
further increase, demand large standing
army and adequate coast defences, so that
we may have peace with dignity in these
later days and extend and hold the world
wide commerce which we need. We will

tions with frankness and honesty, and
weak ones with generosity and fairness,
and so we will honor ourselves and our
great parent by showing the evolution of
an offspring greater and nobler than she,
and, with Gods help, with fewer faults"
