said that was all it cost so it went at that. It was shown later that the horse cost $1O0. Com missioner Scully explained the sltua- ton to the board and while he did not have q chance to do it still 1t was plaln to those about him that he favored increasing the amount, but he didn't get a chance to say so, for the mayor came down on the matter like d thous- and of bricks and squelched the thing then and there, remarking that every man was plugging his own or some body else's game against the city. "Oh.' replied Commissioner Scully, "I don't think it fair to impute dis honest motives to every man who ln- troduces d question to this board. A man may be on the wrong side of a subject and yet be acting from honest conviction.'' To this the mayor re- piled rather sharply that he was not talking about honesty, but sympathy rather, which often prompts people to give some one something he has no right to- He wanted that matter to stay where it is and there it ended.

CONCERNING SCHOOL HEATING
Commissioners Met Monday, but Ar

Commissioners Met Monday, but Ar rived at No Satisfactory Agreement.
 The committee on public schools and hygiene held another meeting Monday afternoon for the purpose of selecting an engineer to draw up plans for heating and ventilating the Bank street school. All the members were pres ent. Commissioner Cowell moved the selection of Engineer Glantzburg, of the Springfield National Steam Heat ing company. The commissioner pro- duced a number of letters and recom- mendations which stated that MT Glantzburg lacked but few points of being Heaven-born engineer and particularly adapted to the work in question.
 Commissioner Hayes objected to the proposed selection. He did not exact ly say that he wished Engineer GlnntZ- burg was in the Arctic zone, or even III the torrid zone. but he spoke as though the latter place was precisely the place he ought to be in. for he blamed him for the disturbance that began in the board of education last week and then shook the city, By no hio''hS "ouiu uSoIiiIHISSlOHer f1aNeS vote for the selection of Engineer GlantZ- burg. He was the representative of q system of heating that had been tested and found lacking in some of the pub. lie schools of the city.
 Commissioner Ki1martin. who is chairman of the committee. said that while he favored Commissioner Cow ellis motion he could not get himself tc vote for it. Were he on the floor hs would do so. After some discussion the committee adjourned without making the selection it convened for

HARVARD AND PRINCETON.

HARVARD AND PRINCETON.
 Cambridge, March 27.-There is no foundation for the statement that ath letic relations between Harvard and Princeton have been broken on account of Princeton'S not returning the basket ball game. The facts of the case are that Princeton defeated Harvard at basket ball several weeks ago. and Harvard wanted a return game in Cambridge. She made Princeton lib- eral guarantee. which the latter re- fused. Harvard increased the guar antee and still the Tigers did not ac- cept. The Harvard men were well re- ceived at Princeton, and bear no i'll feelings whatever against them. As to disruption between the two uni versities no one connected with ath- letics at Harvard has even thought of it. The manager of the basket ball team last night stated that the sup posed interview with him published yesterday was absolutely false.

When Prof. w. C. Broegger of Chris

summer, his greatest surprise was over
his own great Ignorance Of the actual
conditions. Knowing that his country
men are no better Informed than him
self, he has undertaken to prepare a
series Of articles for the newspapers, in
which he will seek to correct a mass Of
misinformation. Most Of his impress
sions were gathered from the Norwe-i
gian papers, but as the news related al
most exclusively to murders, lynching
and all manner of crimes, strikes, rail-
way collisions, divorces and corruption.
he naturally obtained very distorted
views regarding the United States. \
Truly enough, the chase for the al
mighty dollar is n of the striking fea-
lures of American life, he says, but it is
not the only one. AS a school man, the
institutions Of learning attracted his at
tention, ad he marveled greatly over
the vast number of institutions and
their fine equipment. The vast sums
given by people of wealth for the en-
dowment of schools are enough to make
one dizzy. he says. The; world g new
er had q counterpart to the liberality Of
the rich men Of America in founding
arc endowing schools, libraries, muse

Lyngeh on Lyngen ford is moi. often

North Cape and Tromsoe, but the ma
tority miss this picturesque spot. Az
writer In the London Globe writes. thus
e%loquently OF the place:
This raj an incredible spot. The
approach to 1t was almost unearth1y.
Up q long ford from five to ten miles
broad, the western END, nearer shore, OF
which vas just q towering a~gglomera-
ton Of black and white. 1t. was a hot,
'cloudlcss day, and the ford and sky
were like sapphire. But these gaunt,
pinnacled peaks, abated none Of their
grim majesty, even under the Wooing
conditions of the heavens. The fercest
of dark precipice. thousands OF feet
sheer to the water, ssnow-cones, coal
black teeth and club-heads Of rock
soaring from the snow, and sweeping
white scores right from mountain-top
to mountain-foot! 1t, made me shiver
under. the hot sun to look at them. And
yet they had a matchless beauty all
their own to temper the horror ofSthem.
This was the intermittent necklace Of
their glaciers. which gemmed them pale
bue n green wherever they dimpled
boldly toward the east.
'Let no ,voyager into arctic seas in
pursuit Of the sublime pass by Lyngen
ford in neglect. It is the very epitOme
of arctic magnifcence. Its mountains
have terrible names, where they are
named at all, but there are many which
a sure-footed and long-winded adven-
'turer from Lyngen town may climb and
christen at his leisure, if he dare.
'"Lyngen Is called a town because 1T
has more than six houses in it, includ-
ing a three-storried hotel and a white
church with a black spire. "A. single
farm in these parts constitutes village
on the map. And Lyngen Is worthy Of
all the dignity that may thus be given
to 1t, for nowhere In the neighborhood
Of latitude 70 degrees will you find such
rura beauty as here in the roomy,
green hollows II the glacier-decked
mountains. The birch woods come down
to the meadows and rise q thousand
feet OF more on the hillsides. SnoW-fed
streams precolate through them and
bell-kine 3tingle their accompaniment to
the music Of the water.
After a long days rustication on this
heavenly spot we returned to the ship,
which was oar fairy carpet, with nose
gays and reindeer pelts for our booty.
The witchery of the sail up the ford
in broad, hot daylight thenjhads the nose
OF its splendor put completely out Of
Joint by the witchery Of the return
journey. The black and white giants
of the shore eyed US solemnly from be-
meath 6 canopy Of clean crimson and
gold which outlined their smallest up
standing splinter. And the cold was
keen, while the swollen u sank to tri-
fe with the horizon for an hour or two"
