Most Famous Literary Romance.

The strange romance of Thomas Car
lyle and Jane Welch Carlyle was left
unfinished by Mr.. F'roude. the literary
executor. The correspondence as pub
lished by the historian created SYM
pathy both for the husband and for the
Wife, and, while partiSans were free to
condemn or acquit either of the actors
in painful domestic drama, the evil
dence was SO incomplete that a Scotch
verdict of not proven seemed to be the
WiSeSt and most judiciouS conclusion.
The case is to be reopened speedily
by the publication of the letters of Mrs
Carlyle, which were suppressed by Mr..
Froude in the full exercise of the dis
cretionary powers which had been con-
ferred upon him by the philosopher.
These letters will fill two volumes from
Mr.. John Lanes press. The letters
have been collected and edited by Mr.
Alexander Carlyle, the nephew of the
sage of Chelsea, and Sir James Chrich-
ton-Browne has written a brilliant in

manuscript or proof sheets are en-
phatic that there will be a reversal

erS with the wife when the letters

be done to the philosophers memory
Jane WEIGH Carlyle was a woman of
genius and a martyr to sensibility, as
he was to dyspepsia, and probably
many who have read the volumes edit
ed by Mr.. Froude are content to bal
ance- the incompatibilities and to con-
clude that they Were two equally diff
hcult people to get on with under the
roof of the modest Chelsea house. The
suppressed letters, without doubt, will
be intensely interesting and character
istic and will supply the missing chap
tiers OF one of the most famous of liter
airy romances.

Minister Bowen,s Wife.

Zuela, came to Washington to nego-
tate as representative of that country
with the powers of Europe he was &C
companied by his young wife. Their
marriage took place just a year and
a month ago and there was something
of q romance connected with it, for
the nuptials were celebrated while she
was on a visit to the capital of Veue-
Zuela with some cousins of the min

The streets of Caracas are very

common in the United States, such as

Where Wellesley Girls Come From.

Prof. Wilcox, of Wellesley college.
the distribution of Wellesley students
by states-a new departure in W0men's
college statistics, The result shows
that of the $50 students IN attendance
this year about 'four-tenths come from
New England three-tenthS from New
York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey,
two-tenths from the Northern states of
the Mississippi valley. and one-tenth
from the West and South.
The investigation in general is. based
on the student numbers of the last
twenty years, and the most marked
feature of the comparison is the in
crease in the number of students COM
ing from a distance, particularly from
the far West. During these two de-
cades the growth of Wellesley has
increased to nearly twice the numbers.
Massachusetts has, naturally, always
been first in the size of her delegation.
And New York state has been uniform
ly second, the numbers having irregU-
larly increased OF late years the pro-
portiOnaI representation from New
York has been smaller-13 per cent of
the entire college numbers in 1901, as
against 1919 per cent in 1881. This
present year. however, the number
from New York is 21S, as against 1914
last y cotI
Pennsylvania and New Jersey form a
group by themselves, in view of certain
similarities. Pennsylvania has more
than quadrupled her delegation in
twenty years, and New Jersey has
more than trebled hers. The result in
Pennsylvania is doubtless due to the
opening of a Wellesley preparatory
school in Philadelphia. The cause of
the increase in New Jersey is less
clear, but that the influence of New
York is a potent factor seems evident
from the fact that of the flfty-one stu
dents who came last year from New
Jersey thirty+one We're from places
within thirty miles of New York city.
Prof. Wilcox also notes that while
more than half of the Massachusetts
delegation comes from small towns,
practically two-thirds of the New Jer-
sey contingent is from larger towns
and cities-thirty-thre students COM
ing from places of 10000 or more in
habitants, and eighteen from those of
less than 10000. In Pennsylvania this
tendency is even more marked, fifty
two coming from larger places, as
against twenty-three from smaller
