OF THE INDUSTRIAL INSTITUTE AN
NOUNCED BY PRESIDENT E. L. STE
TRANSFORMING ON SEPTEMBER H.
Lafayette Gazette.


The Gazette is pleased to give
space to the following letter from
President Stephens of the Indus
trial Institute. In the advertise
ment which appears elsewhere in
this paper President Stephens
gives an outline. of the curriculum
which has been adopted and the
requisites for admission. A peru
sal of the advertisement will chow
that President Stephens has, as
far as it was consistent with the
usefulness and character of the
institution, adapted the course to
local conditions. This, we are
sure, will be appreciated by the
people of the town and parish.
President Stephens states that the
ideal of the Institute is to offer a
much broader course as soon az II
will be possible to do so.
Under the requirements announ-
ced to-day. The Gazette feels con-
iident that Lafsyette-town and
parish will have its quota OF stu
dents at the opening of the Insti-
tute on September Is. The in
ducements offered to young peo-
pie from the other parishes are
such that it is safe to say that the
initial enrolment will contain the
names of many boys and girls
from different sections of the
State:
Lafayette. La, July II. 1901.
Editor of Lafayette Gazette:
Dear Sir-I hand you herewith the ad-
vertisement Of the Industrial Institute
for the opening year Of Its work.
lam pleased to entertain the belief
that the course of study therein outlined
will be received with approval by the
people of our town and parish, and Of
the State at large as being the most
suitable curriculum available for the
best training of their sons and daugh-
ters. l may say. however. that the ideal
of the Institute Is to offer much broad
or course than this. as soon a. It shall
have grown great enough in the State
to command large appropriations for
maintenance. This it will do, no doubt.
as soOu as it shall DO able to show q
gOcdly attendance OF students, not only
from the town and parish in which the
Institute is located, but also from other
parishes and from the State at large.
To this end, therefore. it is wise for the
authorities OF the school to maintain the
age-limit at not less than fourteen
years and the requirements for admis-
sion at a fair medium, though not high,
standard. This arrangements, believe
will not debar any student from taking
advantage of the Industrial School
course in due time.
Our sixteen page circular Of informa-
ton is now INF the hands Of the printer
and may be obtained upon application
within the coming week.
Very truly yours,
T., L. STEPHENS, President.

 SERMON BY GEORGE HARRIS.
President of Amherst at Yale College
 Cha peI Yesterday

President of Amherst at Yale College
 Chapel Yesterday.
 President George Harris, of Amherst college preached yesterday morning be- fore the Yale students in Battell chapel The text of his sermon was taken from 2 Corinthians iii, 16: Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away"
 Paul says that when the Jews read the Old Testament they saw as if they had a thick veil over their faces; that while they knew the letter of the law by rote they had not it's spirit All of us have failed to see things as they really are. We have. had constantly to readjust our own ideas of life, which has been full of ver-valuations and under valuations of things.
 The first of our illusions and the most common centers in the idea of pleasure, which is overvalued We come to find that both the sources of pleasure and the power of enjoyment are limited. Again, later in life we overvalue our se- rious pursuits, thinking that the all important thing is to succeed in our business; but those who have won greatest fame will tell you that noth- ing disappoints like success. In Christ alone do we find that philosophy which dispels our illusions and transfgures our lives.

 dreds who cannot be cared for in either
 of these ways. The committee is, there-
 fore, desirous of getting the names and addresses of private families who would
 be willing for few days to rent rooms.
 either with or without table board, to such guests. The celebration will begin on the 2Oth of October and last until the 23d. It is, therefore, likely that rooms may be wanted from Saturday, Octo- Der 19, to Thursday, October "A, inclu~ sive.

PROF. AUGUST MAUs WORK.

On the 18th of last October, Professor August Mau, the greatest living Pom- peiian scholar, celebrated his sixtieth birthday. As part of that celebra- ton, a sum of money was collected among his friends in Rome, with which careful copies of some of the Pompeiian wall paintings might be made. These copies were to serve as the basis for a new and definite work on the subject. Meanwhile, the plan has been enlarged, and an international committee in Rome headed by the secretaries of the German Archaeological Institute, has taken the matter in charge. The sum of ST, 800 is needed in order that the cop ies of the paintings may be made by thoroughly first-class artists and their accuracy assured. Tn view of the close relations existing between the German Institute and the American School of Classical Studies in Rome, and of the debt which all scholars owe to Profes- sor Mau himself, at the request of the committee in Rome an American com- mittee has been formed to cooperate in this work. This committee consists of Professors Hale of Chicago, Kelsey of Michigan, Marquand of Princeton, Norton, director of the School in Rome, Peck of Yale, Platner of Western Re- serve. and Smith of Harvard. This committee will shortly issue detailed circular. Those who may desire to aid in this matter or to obtain further in- formation are requested to address the secretary of the committee, Professor Platner, No. "A Cornell street, Cleve- land, Ohio.

 ute to Pop" Hirsh.
 Quite a tribute was paid to Yale and to Pop" Hirsh especially by Sousa and his band at their concerts at the Hy- perion Saturday. As one of the encores to the last piece in the first part of the programme the band struck up "Boola,' and as soon as the first few notes of that well known college song had been sounded there was a great shout of enthusiasm from the Yale con- tingent present and it continued nearly all through the piece. The band was obliged to play "Boola" over again, and again the audience applauded enthu- siastically. The fifty or more pieces in Sousa's band did all kinds of stunts with "Boola," and if the author had been present he would have been put up for sure.
 The concert all through was a de- lightful one, and it is doubted if Sousas band was ever better received in this city than it was Saturday af- ternoon and evening. Four encores were not unusual and three were always given.

MIR. EVARTS AND THE YALE LIT.

IL.
 The obituaries of William M. Evarts
 make but slight mention of one distinc-
 ton of which he had right to be
 proud, namely that he was one of the
 founders of the "Yale Literary Maga-
 zine" chairman of the first editorial
 board. This was in 1884, and from that
 time to this to make the "Lit'' has been
 the chief literary honor at Yale. The magazine is always edited by a board of five seniors, chosen by their class for number and quality of their previous contributions to the magazine, these five choosing the chairman or managing editor from their own number in a cons siderable number of instances. The training thus received has been a step ping stone to literary work of perma- nent character. The latest recruit to the ranks of authorship is the chairman of the board of 1900, Owen Johnson whose first novel, Arrows of the AL mighty" is to appear in April. Among those of the various boards who are we'll known as writers are Dr. Donald G. Mitchell Gk MarveD, Francis M. Finch, author of "The Blue and the Cray, and other poems; President, Dan- iel c. Gilman, of Johns Hopkins, and Andrew D. White, of Cornell, both au- thors of serious work; Charles T. Lew is, the lexicographer; the late pr. Dan- iel G. Brinton, the expert on folk lore; Professor T. R. Lounsbury, the recog- nized authority on Chaucer and on phi lology; E. R. Sill the lamented poet; Tudor Jenks, of the editorial staff of "St. Nicholas" popular and versatile writer; Professor William Lyon Phelps, of Yale; Wallace Bruce, Arthur w. Solton and Edward F. Clark.-New York Mail and Express.

MERIDEN MAN RAISES ORANGES

| MERIDEN MAN RAISES ORANGES A very much pleased New Englander | at the Ebbitt is MT. John S. Lane of Meriden, Conn.,, who has been spending the winter at his residence in Eusts, Fla. In Connecticut and New York MT. Lane has large quarrying interests but he relieves his mind of the care of these quarrleS for a portion of the year and goes south to cultivate oranges and to
 rusticate. Last fall I took a steam launch with me-" said he, yesterday,
 and I have had very enjoyable time.
 Less than three years ago I purchased
 an orange grove, and the trees have
 been growing like magic. Just before I
 departed one of these trees had five
 hundred oranges on it. That was an
 unusual tree, but there were several
 each of which had as much as a box of
 the fruit. I have spent eleven hundred
 dollars in tents for ninety trees, large portion of which I never expect to get
 back again, but have the fun of culti- vatiDg an orange grove. It costs me thirty dollars night for kerosene oil stoves to place under these trees. They raise the temperature something like ten degrees. But after all, Florida is recovering wonderfully from the freeze of few years ago, and 1t is a fine state for winter residence"
 MT. Lane has one quarry on the Pali- sades of the Hudson, but says it is not in the region where the demolition of the granite has caused public outcry. TIo To ed,' said he land was to considerable extent inspired by people who had bought up some land along the river near Fort Washington, and wished to sell it to the state as a public park. Their object has been accomplished" Washington Post.
