long succession of guardians We rec
ognize in common that the intent has
always been, not alone to equip body
of specialists for one or another par
tlcular vocation, but to lay a broad
foundation for good service in church
and state, Hence the importance at
tached to the forces concerned in the
moulding of character, and consequent
ly to the incubation of moral and re-
ligious truth and to the worship of God.

Alright the end in view, in which lies the
worth of special agencies employed to

One other ground of satisfaction on
the part of your associates you will
permit me to mention. 1t lies in your
lively interest in whatever affects the
honor and welfare of the country. For
undergraduates the college may well
serve as Watchtower of observation

But when conflict arises in which fun

i'd silence is ignoble. At such times, in
this land, fearless utterances on the

called for. A spontaneous concurrence

Harvard, our elder sister, is with us to-
day to remind us of examples of cour-

which, at critical moments in the ma

Now that we are nearing the dawn of
another century in the history of Yale,

PERSONALITY.
In the Virginia Conference Sketches
Rev. J. j. Lamerty, -. D., says OF Dr..
Starr:
In personal appearance he is erect.
with firm step and Independent air, as If
he felt the blood of English ancestry and
vet those who know him well tell MS that
humility IS as marked and as attractive
as his independence Of spirit. In and out
OF the pulpit he shows the bearing Of a
man who has volunteered TO serve his
Lord with all his strength and at any
cost.
As a preacher he Is original, forcible
fearless. His voice Is pleasant flexible,
penetrating. He speaks distinctly and yet
so rapidly that no stenographer can fol-
low him. His vocabulary is exhaustless.
His style is nervous his gesticulation art
less but always expressive. At times on
the platform he is uncOnsciously dramatic.
when borne onward under the rush of a
tempest OF emotion.
DEEP. BROAD CONVICTIONS.
"IIis convictions are deep. broad and
abreast OF the times. Such is the strength
Of his allegiance 20 what he believes 10 be
the right that he frequently appears 10 be
cOmbative and uncOmpromising; but he
never courts controversy and prefers peace

Gle IS. perhaps. too Indifferent to pub

Wesleyan itinerant the highest badge Of
distinction on earth and has been heard

give one whirl on my heel for any office
or any honor that could be conferred upon
me by either Church or state
"His lectures have added over $1,000 TO
the material interests Of Southern Meth
odism. He Is a humorous conversational
fist. a good pastor, a warm friend and is
never so happy as when at work in old

HAVANA P0ST0FFICE.
There is Great Dissatisfaction with the
Present Postal Arrangements.

HAVANA, Sept 1.-THE present postal
arrangements are causing considerable
dissatisfaction. owing to the large amount
of business done with the Southern States
and also to the fact that most OF the
Americans doing business here are South
erners. Under the new law. all nail mat
ter for the Southern States must 20 by
way Of New York city. This is consd-
cred a great hardship. Moreover. owing
TO the number OF cases of yellow fever
at Key West, the Cubans are anxious
20 quarantine against that port. Not that
they believe that there is any danger,
hut as a sort OF retaliatory measure. al
though the Cuban doctors assert rLat
when yellow fever gets a footing in
Florida II Is of a much more malignant
type than Cuban yellow fever, and that
there is greater danger OF bringing II
here than taking 1t there. The Miami line
managers have requested the department
OF posts TO suspend the existing mail con-
tract as at this time of the year IL Is
exceedingly Improbable, owing TO the
fact that the company cannot take pas
sengers from Cuba. The matter is under
consideration, and If Director Of Post
Rathbone grants the request it will mean
only three mails a week from Havana
until November.
