HARVARD AND OXFORD.

English College the More Picturesque
If Not Quite So Modern.
Some stir was raised not long ago by
letter in the London Times which
purportcd to be written by an American
Mother, whose son was about to enter
Oxford after four years at Harvard,
and who complained obstreperously, Of
the extraordinary discomfort" Of OK
ford college rooms. She represented
them to be ill-kept. ill-furnished. shah
by and dirty. She was shocked at their
condition, and protested that it was too
bad, and that though discomfort and
rigid simplicity might be salutary, she
did not believe in the discipline of dirt,
It was replied that the furnishing of the
oxford mans rooms was his own con-
Germ, and that he could suit his taste
about it. There Is no reason to fear
that the Rhodes men will suffer in OK
ford lodgings, or repine at the lack of
running water, radiators, bath rooms
and other details of modern American
buildings. Thirty years ago almost all
the rooms in American college build
ings were quite as auStere as, and less
comfortable and picturesque than
those at Oxford. Our newer buildings
are more luxurious because they are
modern and built with modern accesso-
ries. They may be healthier than the
old buildings. but the old rooms were
healthy enough. The Oxford rooms are
seasoned and have an atmosphere
They stir. the imagination and invite
the soul Cat least they ought to-, and
for young men of college age that is far
better than plumbing or steam heat.
We ought to hope--and doubtless We
can hope with entire confidehce-that
the oxford rooms will not be modern
lied before the Rhodes men have tried
the taste of them. Our young men
need flavor more than they need wall
paper, and il there Is one thing that
oxford has, it is flavor. Let them get
all of it they can. no matter if there Is
some little dirt mixed in with THAR
per's Weekly.

CAPTAIN PATRICK o'FARREr1.

The funeral of Captain Patrick
OFarrell, who died in Washington, D.
c., last Sunday evening. was held in
that city yesterday afternoon. Burial
was in the Arlington cemetery. The
bearers were members of the various To-
cal societies, to which he be longed,
among the number being General e. w
Whitaker of Ashford, representing the
Loyal Legion, and Captain Hiram
Buckingham of Hartford, representing
the G. A. r.
A Washington dispatch says: The
death of Captain O'Farrell removed one
of the best known characters of the
capital For years he had been a
prominent figure on the streets of
Washington. He had had a varied and
interesting career, and is known in
many places besides Washington. He
came to this country from Ireland at
the opening of the war and enlisted in
Co. G, Goth New York volunteers. It
was during the war he met General
Hawley, with whom for years he was
an intimate friend. 1t was mainly
through General Hawley that Captain
O'Farrell came to locate in Hartford
soon after the war. Early in the '70s
he was appointed a letter carrier in the
Hartford postoffice when General
Whitaker was postmaster.

With few exceptions the motley crowd
had been to mass and now in the early
hours of Christmas morn were bent
upon merriment and supper. The cafes
were OVERLOOKING and the sound of the
laughter and song inside them mingled
with the sound of song and laughter
without. In the midst of all this care
free happiness felt lonely and heart

had made my life of study. music and

In the Day district the pupils raised
funds to buy coal for number of
families. Some of the coal was distrib-

| Owing to the shortage of coal the
janitors of all schools in the city were
instructed yesterday to shut off fires at
noon and to draw off the water at the
same time. This latter precauion is
taken in order to prevent the pipes
from freezing while the buildings are
closed during the holiday recess. By
putting out fires at once quite a lot Of
coal will be saved If fuel becomes
more plentiful the fires will be kindled
again in day or two before the pu-

A HOUSEHOLD NEED.
There Should Be a Sitting Room for the
Maid

There Should Be Sitting Room for the
Maid
One of the most crying needs in do
mestic architecture is a maids sitting
room, some place besides the kitchen
where these humble helpers in our
homes may enjoy an hours rest and
entertain their friends. Nothing re-
Dukes our present home arrangement
more than the cramped and univiting
quarters assigned to those we call our
servants. The smallest and darkest
sleeping room in the house is theirs,
often adjoining the kitchen, where it is
the easy receptacle of all the cooking
odor and fumes. The room in which
they work is the room in which they
live; where, perhaps, a dishpan and
skillets ornament the walls, and the
tea kettle is the only article Of vertu.
That is an exceptional kitchen, in size
and arrangement, in which rocking
chair or lounge Is found. to afford a
few minutes needed rest; where flowers
bloom in the window or few pictures
widen the outlook. A room that COM
prises some of these features of home
comfort and grace is sadly needed, and
would do much to tighten toll and
sweeten the household atmosphere The
need is both for a little more space
at the rear end of the house, and a lit
tie more kindly forethought in the care
of those who live at that end.-Celia

spirit; it is decadent and modern, and
it is extremely unbecoming to the sal

And yet of all colors, it is the most
restful and in the correct tints. the

one that lends itself to pleasant
thoughts and agreeable dreams, that
