HARVARD CREW ON THAMES.
Takes Its First Spin Despite Rain aud
 Rough Weather

Harvard Quarters Gales Ferry, June 10-The Harvard varsity squad arriv- ed at Red Top at 6:25' tonight, and three quarters of an hour later the eight left the float for their first prac- tice of the season on the Thames. The water was rough and rain fell occasion- ally, but the men were in fine spirits and showed no effects of the ride from Boston.
 Shortly after leaving the float the button on McGrew's oar broke and af- ter securing a new oar the crew once more put out into the river. They pad dled down the river for about mile and a half at 27 to the minute, MT Hig ginson coaching them particularly on getting the oars cut without clipping. The wind and rc-sgh water made the boat rather unsteady
 The four-oar crew also went out and padded up toward the Yale quarters and returned, rowing slow stroke. The freshman squad is expected to ar- rive at Red Top Friday.

LARGEST LIBRARY FOR THE

The subjects OF the books contained in
the library cover a very wide range. IN
tie matter OF fiction this library differs
greatly from the ordinary one Fiction
as represented By the popular works OF
the day Is sparsely represented Shakes
peare, however. has a warm place n the
hearts Of the bIind readers and his works
are constantly IN demand. Dickens. Thack-
cray, Hawthorne. Scott. Tennyson. the
Brownings. Macauley. Moore. Goldsmith,
Byron and LongfeIlow are there So. too,
are Ian Naclaren. Mrs Frances HodgsoR
Burnett Sarah Orne Jewett. Conan Doyle.
Eipling. Mrs Wlggln and some other mod
ern writer's.
There are about fifty books. made up OF
the different books and selections from
the Bible There are nine books written
in the French language and there are Eve
in German There is also a complete set
Of books for study. including readers and
appliances, language study. geography.
and history. mental PHILOSOPHY political
economy and civil government, natural
science and physics, psychology. elemen-
tary natural history. elementary geology
and literature. which last includes his
tory and biography. The musical nun

complete course Of music culture and
study. The piano selections include .
large number by Bach. while Chopin.
Beethoven. Handel, Schumann. MendeIs-
sohn, and Schubert are also represented
A study Of the different types used in
printing the books is interesting. The
Moon type is printed in raised letters.
largely resembling the regular ailzshet
The Boston line IS also e raised letter
Just the same as the ordinary printed let
tiers The New York Point is the raised
dot system The English Braille is the
most difficult Of all to understand. It
consists Of raised dots. but these depend
IN a measure for their meaning on posi-
ton. as does the stenographic writing
Thus a single dot high on the line stands
for "a" a similar dot low on the line
signifying an arostrophe. There are sPe-
ciaI coutractions in this system for much
used words. The American Braille is
aIong the same style. but is much simpler
TO understand.
The library is largely supported by
donations, by dues from annual subscrip-
tons Tt had last year a state grant Of
500 and city grant Of S252-1S but as its
expenses amount TO nearly $500 yearly
these grants form only a very small por-
ton Of the funds needed

PRIESTS OF THE GREEK CHURCH

II VERYONE who knows the facts
II testIfes that the priests OF the
IL Greek church are models intellec-
tually. morally, and spiritually, but
there are altogether too many OF them
According TO the census Of 1859. there
were over 5000 priests Tor a population Of
2.ls7. POS. and the number has rapidly in
creased since that date. so that the ratio
is even larger. There are probably I0.GG0
priests and monks in Greece today. while
the membership Of the Greek church IS
2,13S, 500. A slight calculation viii show
you. says W T. Curtis in the Chicago
Record Herald, that this is an average Of
about one priest TO every 200 souls. so that
the clerical profession. like all others. is
suffering from an oversupply. and the PEG
pie are required to support it. There are
10 monasteries with over 1890 monks,
and nine nuneries with go nuns.
The head Of the church is called the
metropolitan. who is elected by the holy
synod, composed OF tWenty-One archbIsh-
ops and twenty-nine bishops: and all
these have to be supported by the tax
payers. Nominally the church is under the
care Of the patriarch Of ConstantinOple,
but while his jurisdiction is never ques-
toned in theory. he never attempts to
exercise more than formal ecclesiastical
authority
The compensation OF the clergy is tnsig-
nidcaut. The metropolitan receives only
$l2O a month and the bishops only $50. In
Athens the most prominent Of the parish
clergy do not receive more than $500
year. while country parsons are Obliged TO
subsist upon mere pittaRce. many OF
them being paid only in the produce Of the
farms Of their hOcks. The monks belong
10 orders which own property. and are
therefore much better on. For these rea-
