- IL is II curious fact that Harvard col
lege raised money by lottery as late rs 1906,
for in that year is offered for sale 20, 600
tickets at - each, with prizes ranging
from 81 To Sl5 900. The prospectus stated
that "in the above scheme the just expec-
tations of the publick, and the interest of
the University, have been consulted. 1t
is worthy the attention of adventurous.
that the highest prize is nearly double in
value to any that has been drawn i'm this
Commonwealth for many years past,
though the usual price of tickets is pre-
served. The Managers solicit :the patron
age of the publick in general, and of the
friends of literature and the University in
particular; and, considering the object
of the lottery, they will combine the pros
pect of gain with the certainty of benefit
ting the University, and by lending their
aid TO the means of education, will pro-
mote the best interests of their country"

OF column, 1t amounts to nothing ex-
cent that City Engineer White gives one
reason-given also in Saturdays lntelli-
gencer-why It is impossible to change
the marks so they will represent exactly
the amount OF water In the river; this
reason is that the city grades are COM
puted from the zero mark extended into
the water. Though this fact does not do
away with the deslrabillty of having tina
marks show Just the amount Of water In
the channel--the contention OF the steam
boatmen, whom the Intelligencer voiced
At makes 1t practically impossible of
realization, and the steamboatmen will
perforce be compelled to add ten inches

the fact that there is such peculiar and
amusing system OF mathematics flying
