The Course in Novel Writing.

A Chicago despatch to the Tribune
gives the good news that fiction writing
will be taught at the Northwestern Uni
versty this year" Mr. J. SCOTT CLARK,
Northwestern's accomplished profess
sor of English "has planned the new
course which includes the teaching of
how to write novelettes and magazine
articles
1t must be gratifying TO practical men
to see university offer instruction in a
great breadwinning business. Indeed,
it is curious that none of the business
colleges has anticipated Northwestern.
Tho writing of novels is one Of the most
profitable branches OF modern trade.
Tho successful novelist lives in clover.
His paths drop fairness. He has city
houses, country houses, automobiles,
yachts, safe deposit vaults He is VEN
Grated by all, and may becomes member
of the Legislature when he chooses.
What glorious change from the days
when Miss BURNEY wrote of novelsts az
a class despised by other writer's and
sold 4Evelina' for 500!
word of hearty praise should be
given to the altruistic pedagogues who
are going to teach how to write novels
and novelties and magazine articles.
They could make great deal more
money by working at the trade. They
scorn to do so. They don't seek wealth,
but to do good. There are editors Of
magazines in this town who are posi-
lively heartbroken by the refusal Of the
Northwes experts to furnish them
with mastery copy
A reflection thrusts itself upon the
mind of the sociologist: Does novel
writing have to be taught? Can't every
body write novels? Everybody does.

College Rank and Distinction In Life.
From, The Atlantic Monih!l


There is a tradition In Engand-very wholesome

toprove that the general impression swell founded.
The list Includes indeed, most of the great figures
in English public life during lhe Victorian era who
were graduates OF oxford or OF Cambridge.
Nor are we entirely without similar examples

and classify as honor men those who stood In first
seventh OF their class, who received honors at
graduation In any special subject or who won
Bowdoln prize. then In the honor list OF Harvard
there igurc the President Of the United States
the only Harvard men in his Cabinet and In the
Supreme Court the Ambassador to England. and
the last Governor OF the Commonwealth who gradu-
ated from the college. Nor would II be drlcult
to cite many examples among the successful pro-
fcssionaI and business men. Yet. the impression
Is certainly common here that high scholars rarely
amount to much aftcrward. and that the compe,I-
tive trial OF life does not begin until college days
are past
Prof Edwin e. Dexter. compares the subse-
aucnt careers thr members of the Phi Beta kappa

OF other graduates. and he gives figures, taken
from twenty two colleges. to the effect that the
proportion OF the former who have proved 20
be high grade men In the world Is nearly three
times as large as that OF the graduates taken
81 a whole. He examines, also. two large New
England colleges tho percentage of whose living
graduates that have achieved success is ~
and shows that tho percentage among the men
who ranked In the Nrst tenth OF their class Is 54
while in the second tenth 1t Is 10 In the third tenth

the class. 10. In one OF these colleges he con.
siders the first four scholars In each class and

The date for the opening Of tenders for tho
construction Of the Trans-Andean Railway,
which 70 to connect Chile with the Argentine
railway system, has been altered from May
/. 1901. to December of the present year. the
object being to have II completed as soon a.
possible The Chilean Congress has just
voted 200 for the preliminary surveys.
The total length Of the line to be built Is
forty-seven kilometres, Of which twenty
four are comparatively easy. but the other
part presents some engineering difficulties;
for. besides climbing about six thousand
feet, sixteen kilometres Of tunnelling will
have to be done.
On the Chilean side the line is built to about
thirty kilometres from Los Andes, the ter
minus Of the main line from either Santiago
or Valparaiso The Argentine part Of the
line is almost completed up to $50 feet
above the sea level, at the foot Of the Cum
bre, which Is the boundary between the two
countries. The Argentine company Is now
waiting for the Chilean side to proceed be-
fore going on with the rest OF its part OF it.
The line, which IL to be Of foot s Is inch
gauge, is expected to be open for traffic in
1905. Valparaiso and Santiago will then be
in direct railway communication with
Buenos Ayres, thus obviating the long and
dangerous passage round Cape Horn or
through the Straits Of Magellan.

olsiv, to The Hon. HUGH MCLAUGHLIN:

Mr.. MCLAUGHLIN is too we'll acquainted
with the rich returns of Tammany dairy
farming to make such an assertion. He
knows that no matter how succulent
the grass on the Isle of Wight or how
plump its cattle, Mr.. MURPHY will not be
tempted to go thither so long as he has
any chance of milking Greater New
York
That is the Tanlmany COW. Would the
profits of two years justify professional
dairy farmer in taking up amateur bu-
collie existence far away from the richest

Mr.. MCLAUGHLIN must have been mis-
quoted. Besides, Tammany has yet to
catch the cow.

1t may be said that personal vanity

President Finley and tho College OF
the City OF New York.

Yesterdays installation of Dr. JOHN
HUSTON FINLEY as president of the
College of the City Of New York may be
said to mark the beginning Of a progress
sive development Of that institution
which will place it eventually among the
very great colleges of this country.
This college. originally the Free Acad-
envy, is the summit Of the system of free
public education in New York, Of which
the elementary school is the base From
it has come Il long procession of grad
yates who have achieved distinction in
politics, in the professions and in the
world Of affairs, but it is no unjust dis
arrangement of the institution to say
that never yet has it ranked with the
foremost schools of the higher learning
in this country, or attained the place
in that sphere which ought TO be held
by n college bearing tho name Of New
York. 1t has not even received the con-
sideraton from educators Of the highest
class to which it is justly entitled. for it
has done much good work in quiet
way, and in its faculty have been men of
distinction in various fields Of learning
With the installation of President
FINLEY this observation will pass away
He is a man of a high order OF ability,
both as scholar and as an adrninistra-
tor, and he will command for the College
of the City Of New York the most respect
full attention of the world of education
Under his presidency its degrees will
have far higher value
Moreover the institution is to be taken
from it's present narrow and unimpres-
sive quarters to new building adequate
in its magnitude and its architectural
proportions for college properly repre-
sentative of the grandeur of the second
city OF the world. This new structure is
to occupy spacious site at i3Sth street.
and its cornerstone was laid yesterday
as an incident of the installation of Presi-
dent FINLEY.

GIFTS aud Requests.

The late WILLIAM EARL DODGE had
many opportunities to observe the fate
of we'll intended requests to worthy
public and semi-public objects. He saw
that in numerous cases the purposes
Of charitably inclined persons were not
carried out practically. As sensible
man, therefore, he made up his mind
that he could do much more good by
direct gifts during his lifetime to what
ever institutions he believed worthy of
assistance than by testamentary be-
quests to be paid after his death.
Acting on this principle, he gave what
he believed to be just while he lived, and
in his will provided for no public be-
quests OF any kind. The statement of
his ideas on the subject Of charitable
gifts is in these words
Acting from judgm ent deliberately formed
aud based upon observation of the inexpcdicncy
ftcstamentary requests to religious and charitable
objects. and believing It better and wiser to give
literally during my life to such objects | make
no requests Of that character"
This opinion of Mr.. DoDGEs seems to
be held more and more by men who are
rich enough to make large gifts to benevo-
lent or charitable institutions. Mr.. CAR
NEGIg is scattering his wealth wherever
he can get communities to accept il on his
terms. Mr.. ScEwAB is building churches
schools and Fairgrounds wherever he has
an interest. The roll of living gtvers to
