THE REAL YALE SpIBIy

Nothing that has happened lately in
Yale matters has been more cheering
than the episode of the statue-site,
When it was announced that the Wool
sey memorial statue was to he placed
on the playground OF the Seniors there
was instant rebellion and little an
archy, Stirred seniors went to and fro
declaiming against the established
order of things, the Corporation and
Fellows We're charged with ty-
rannically disregardmg sacred
tradition and abolishing popular
right, and the torch, or match,
Of the incendlary famed up.
1.-THE Reds" announced that the soil
sacred to games should never be deraced
or numbered by a work Of art and
honor and there was mutterng of
green paint if it should become neces-
sary. For about a quarter of an hour
it looked as il the Yale spirit wasn't
exactly what 1t had been cracked up to
be. But it was and is. Anarchy is
not yet popular with those who are
taught how to govern themselves and
others at Yale. THE Reds We're driv-
en- into their holes, the incerdiary hid
his torch, or used it to light a cigarette
with, and the real Yale spirit got grip
on the situation. Then followed respec-
table agitation and respectful, although
somewhat too humble, supplication.
The Corporation and the Fellows gave
gracious heed to the prayer of the pro-
testers, and showed they were not the
| tyrants they were hastily and wrongly
accused oe being by picking out a site
| for the statue that will not interfere
with anybody's games.
The whole affair is most encourag-
ing triumph of the real Yale spirit and
of proper principles of government.
How different the situation here from
| that at Harvard, where the bumps rails
| ed by the club of the law on anarchistic
heads are just now painfully common
and protuberant.

That is a queer will which has just
been sustained by the Pennsylvania
Supreme court. A Philadelphia man
made it, and in it he left $1,000 to the
Presbyterian Orphanage and 900 to
the Presbyterian Home for Widows and
Single Women, and to other charitable
societies smaller sums. The condition
of the requests was that if any of the
benef1ciaries should give any support
aid or sympathy to what the testator
considered the pernicious fallacy of
prohibition or its bantling, local op-
tion, or to any other scheme for the
total suppression by law of the manu-
facture, sale or distribution of liquor
that will intoxicate when used to ex-
cess" or show any unfriendly spirit
against any person for being engaged
in the manufacture or sale of liquor,
then the legacies should become void.
The two Presbyterian societies and the
INDECENT Widows Society declined to
S'CSNpN tlC pNittStS pil eiNNtuill VI llit
conditions. They said that while it was
not their charter object to take part
| in schemes for the suppression or the
prohibition of the liquor traffic, yet as
they were connected with a religious
body which had been opposed to that
traffic, they felt that they could not
accept the legacy with such a condition
annexed. The Orphans court held that
the whole clause was too vague and in
definite to allow the transfer to the
charity which was to receive the money
il the condition was violated, and held
| that the Presbyterian societies took
their legacies clear of any conditions
whatever. The Supreme court decides
that the condition should be fulfilled,
and that there was no more uncertain
~ in determining who We're Prohibit
tionists or aided and encouraged pro-
hibition than in describing any polti-
cal party or religious creed. The lega-
cies will therefore not be received by
the Presbyterian societies to whom gifts
were first made.

Many theories have been advanced, but
each of these has in turn been exploded.
1t is certainly true that the fluid cannot
circulate through the minute inter
stices which make up the fiber of trees
and plants without some kind of me
chanical force either before on behind 1t
to impel or attract, What this force is
and how it operates are not known,
There must he reason, and good
one, for water the course of which is
usually down HILL" to change its
course and flow vigorously upwards de-
spite the general tendency of graVita-
ton. 1t has been asked: Does sap
move because of capillary attraction,
or on account of evaporation from the
leaves?" There is certainly a mass Of
contradictory evidence to present in
both cases, Capillary attraction can
not be accepted as the cause, because
the fluid ascends by the cells and not
through the tubes. Neither can evapo-
ration from the leaves he accepted as
the cause, because sap was flowing a
month or six weeks ago in some plants,
long before even the buds Began to
swell Verify we know but little about
some of the mysteries of nature.

LEGAL E0 LITY FOR PEHTCLEs

The bicycle is a vehicle, and the New
York city wheelmen are moving for a
repeal Of all ordinances which relate
ment of a general ordinance defining
the manner in which the highways shall
be used for bicycles and all other wheel
ed vehicles Their idea is that the pc
destrian should have the right of way
when crossing the highways at the in
tersections of streets or roadways, and
all horsemen, drivers and cyclists
should avoid collision with pedestrians,
even though it should be necessary to
come to d full stop. 1t should not be
deemed sufficient to warn the pedes-
trian by signal, and then to continue
without abatement of speed. The pc
destrian might be deaf or blind, or
both, and yet is entitled to the right
horsemen and cyclists shall have right
of way when traversing the streets or
highways which extend north and
south, and those travelling east and
west should accord this right of way
when crossing such streets or high
ways. They further ask that all vehi-
cles shall carry lighted lamps between
sunset and sunrise, that bells shall be
| used for signals under conditions which
are described, that drivers of covered
wagons must be compelled to signal in
| some way when about to change their
| course, that cable cars shall be COM
PEELED to stop before crossing certain
named points which are especially dan
gerous. that the limitations as to speed
be relaxed outside the densely populat-
ed portions of the city. but only as
may be ordered by the aldermen. and

CURIOSITY ABOUT SAP.
Some of the Hidden Mysteries About
Plant Life Revealed.

(From the st. Louis Republc)
At this season of the year, when the
sap is up in nearly all species of tree
and shrub in the northern temperate
zone, thoughtful men and women are
thinking about a great many of the Gu
rious things in nature. We know a
great deal about the hidden myster-
les" of plant life nowadays, but there
are still several of the subtle ''hows"
and why's" that are successfully elud-
ing the botanists and the vegetable
psychologist" The heading of this
note" gives you pretty good idea Of
what We are driving at, and we wish to
say before wasting more space that
there are more ''curiosities about sap"
than the average reader imagines. The
cause of the circulation of sap has been
a standing enigma since the days when
men first began to study and reflect.

Just what dress like this is to be
styled in the summer girls vocabulary
is hard to say. Already she is adopt
ing a vernacular that confuses the lis
tener who is not posted. she calls her
low neck costumes evening toys" her
tailormade a street rig" her little
morning affairs ''frocks," and the only
dresses she confesses to are night
dresses. Even these are frequently
built on the pajama plan, which re-
duces her to no dresses at all, unless
costumes like this one are to be favored
with that name.
No matter how straight across your
foot may be you must wear the pointed
toe, and that means that the shoe
should be so long that the point does
not interfere with your comfort. If the
point does reach away beyond your
foot, be sure to stuff it with tissue pa
per or cotton, else you will have it GRIN

nice to the girls who have to go out
rain or shine, and who, like as not,
have to wear rubber boots?

Professor Alexander Togg, of Fort
Worth Texas, tries to prove, in the
Railroad Gazette, that railroad train
going eastward is helped both by the
force of the earth's revolution eastward
and by the prevailing west wind. On
the other hand, q train is INSTRUCTED
and delayed to a corresponding extent
in going west. Trials Of railroad speed
to obtain the best results, should &C
cordingly be from west to east. Mr..
Hogg's reasoning is supported by elab-
crate mathematical formulate, and his
formulate are approved in the main bv
the Railroad Gazette as leading to the
correct conclusion. The argument is
further sustained by Professor E. H.
Randle, of Byhalia, Mississippi, who
adds that train going west is not re-
tarded so much as one going east is &C
CELEBRATED. AS he puts it, "a train run
ming east increases it's centrifugal force
and lightens the train" Professor
Randle estimates that a train running
seventy miles an hour going north or
south loses two miles an hour by rea-
son of the rotation of the earth, ION
account of pressure against the right
rail-"
