WHY GO TO COLLEGE.
IA symposium by college presidents, In

IA symposium by college presidents, Il
! Success.l
! To make one more of a man.-Jame:
B. Angel, president of the University
of Michigan.
| 1t multiplies a hundredfold his
chances of sGeesss.-Henry Wade Rog
ers, President of Northwestern Uni
! versity.
For the same reason that crude ores
should be assayed-to discover and as
say their qualities.-W 81. Payne, Chan.
cellor of the University of Nashville.
Because the fuller and larger you
can make life in these early years, the
better it must be for the future
James NJ. Taylor, President of Vassar
College.
To the end that he may be safely ag-
gressive among educated people, and
become fitted for leadership in affairs.
Andrew S. Draper, President of the
University of Illinois.
In order that the young man may dis
cover what his powers are, and learn to
use them for his own good and the good
of others.-Charles W. Eliot, President
of Harvard University.
Such an education is the best means
of developing thought power in a
young man, and making him think
ing man of cultured mind.-Timothy
Dwight, Late President of Yale Univer-
sity.
Because, in taking a college course,
one forms an acquaintance with men,
learns how to deal with them, and is,
for this reason, more likely to succeed.
Charles Kendall Adams, University
of Wisconsin.
Because man should have higher
aim in life than mere money-getting, or
so-called success; because man should
try to make the most of himself.-Fran-
els L. Patton, President of Princeton
University.
Such an education will act on an av-
erage intellect like fertilizer on field
of average fertility. 1t makes one
more of man. This is the chief value
of all educa tion.-Jacob Gould Schur-
man, President of Cornell University.
For the reason that the advance of
world-knowledge is so widespread
that, in order to hold ones own, to be
the best, and to do the best, it is neces-
sary to get just as much education as
possible. William R. Harper, President
of the University of Chicago.
The whole of your life has been
spent in your own company, and only
the educated man is good company to
himself. Only the man who is trained
to help himself can be helpful to others.
David Starr Jordan, President of Le-
land Stanford University.
Such an education ought to give to a
man perspective, by enabling him to
estimate the present in the light of the
past. 1t ought to strengthen his mind
by exercising and disciplining his pow
ers; and it ought to broaden his out
look, by enabling him to know some
thing. at least, of many branches of
knowledge.-Seth Low, President Of
Columbia University.

WHERE ALICE LIES.
eneath the sea, where Alice liel

Beneath the sea, where Alice lies,
Are emeralds and pearls;
Pale griefs that fell from out mine eyes
Were borne and laid where Alice lies
BY mermaids and by sylphs that rise
Where the green water curls,
Where Alice lies.
No waking is where Alice dreams,
Her bed is cold and bare;
And day and night her wet hair streams,
Forever streams where Alice dreams,
And many a bright sea-jewel CLEANS
Like life within her hair,
Where Alice dreams.
At the world heart, where Alice sleeps,
Under the moaning wave,
The griefs that cry, the wind that sweeps
Are all unheard where Alice sleeps.
No green grows but seaweed that creeps
Athwart the silent grave
Where Alice sleeps.
Deep in my heart, where Alice is.
And shall forever be,
False death has grown his mysteries;
But kisses live as memories
Remembrance is of every kiss
Sweet winds from off the sea,
Where Alice is.
Thomas Tracy Bouve, in The Criterion.

POPULAR SCIENCE.

The newest thing in medical science
is the "isolation cure"
Ants can stand extremes of heat and
cold. Forty-eight hours exposure to
frost will not kill them, and one sort
has been observed to build its nest in
chinks in blacksmith's forge.
The work of making topographic
maps of the United States, which has
been carried on for number of years
by the United States geological survey,
is progressing steadily, if slowly. Dur
ing the present year it is expected that
topographic operations will be carried
on over an area of 10000 square miles
This territory is included in 27 differ
ent states and is distributed through
about "a different quadrangles, as the
space covered by each map is termed.

The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1900-03-07

The cheapest piece Of political Job
berry ever known to cmnnate from any
source is charged to the account of the
President Of the United Suites, who,
realizing the fatal leap made by his
party in Congress on the Porto Rican
tariff bill, hastily summoned II caucus,
lasting till nearly laybreak, the out
come OF which was message by the
President to Congress recommending
the expenditure of 3o,O05, ,455, being
the amount Of customs revenue receiv-
ed on importations by the United
States from Porto Rico since the evacu-
,,tiUn OF that island by the Spanish
forces to Jan. 1, 1900, together with any
further customs revenue collected on
importatiOns from Porte Rico since
Jan. 1, 1900, or that shall hereafter be
collected under existing laws shall be
placed Mt the disposal Of the President
to be used for the government and
benefit Of Porto Rico until otherwise
provided by law, followed immc cdiatcly
by bill to carry the recommendation
into effect. They simply stole the
ntnority's thunder, having been CALLED
by the heavy fire to which their vul-
nerable attitude subjected them, and
