Grinnell, April S.-The conference of
the Congregational colleges of the in
terror held its session yesterday in the
college chapel, which was turned over
to the use of the delegates from the
various schools represented. The pa
pers on the various subjects were in
teresting and instructive, ard the dis
cussions Immediately following were
participated in by many representa-
tives. In all that was said and done 1t
was evident that the men were here for
a definite purpose and had come pre-
pared to contribute something toward
the success of the conference which Is
an assured thing.
A spirit of cordially and fellowship
marked the session. The program is
carefully planned and the problems dis
cussed are vital to the welfare of the
small college. The afternoons session
was especially important as the general
subject was Religion as Central in
Education and the papers on The
Modern Trend-Losses and Gains by
President r. c. Hughes, of Ripon, and
'Desirability of Present Methods" by
President A. T. Perry, OF Marietta, were
ably presented and Very fully discussed
by President Slocun, of Colorado;
President Fuller, of Drury; President
ID. B. Perry, of Doane; President Eaton,
of Beloit; President Bradley, of Iowa:
President r. C. Hughes, of Ripon; Pres
ident H. C. King, of Oberlin, and others.
The morning session was begun at
9:15. The general subject was "Rela-
tive Values in Educational Subjects"
Dean E. G. Smith, of Beloit, gave good
paper on"The Course for the A. b. De-
gree and Recent Proposed Modifica-
ton 1.-The Prominence of Science
Courses and the Science Degree" was
read by President w. f. Slocum, of
Colorado, and presented in his able
manner. Dean 7. r. Willard, of Knox,
presented Athletics" in clear and
concise paper.
The best things were reserved for the
evening, when Professor Scott. of the
Chicago Theological Seminary, taking
President Georges place, who was un-
able TO De present, gave pIdSliSai da-
dress on What May the Theological
Seminary Expect From the College,"
This was followed by a philosophical
address by President H. c. King. who
spoke on What May the Community
Expect of the College in Producing
Efficient Citizens" In its breadth and
scholarship this was conceded by all
to be far the best effort of the day. A
fairly good audience heard him.
The fact that the spring vacation
begun today had quite an effect on the
size of the audience, as many of the
students went home. 1t is expected
that more people will avail themselves
Of the opportunity to hear the talent
present today.
The conference closes this evening
with business meeting and will be fol-
lowed by reception to the distinguish
ed guests of the college. From the
representatives the unanimous verdict
is rendered that the conference is a
great success in every way.

Stars Breaking in Two.

Striking conformation of the as
Economical theory Of Prof. Darwin,
Of Cambridge, is being brought to
notice. He pointed out that at GER
tain velocity Of revolution on its axis
one Of few hours star would
tend to break in two, and before COM
plete separation Of the parts it would
take the form Of a dumb bell, or two
pears joined by their small ends. J lust
this condition is shown by, the light
changes Of some lately discovered
variable stars. One southern var
liable; for instance, has a period Of
seven hours, and study Of its light
changes indicates that it is twin
system, with the two bodies still in
contact, and revolving round the COM
mon center in seven hours. Another
variable star Of the southern skies
appears to be a system in which the
two stars have just separated, the dis
tance between them still small.

A LEGENDARY HEROINE.

80. Mafalda Of Italy Was Named: =
w. Little Princess Mafalda Of Italy
is named after one Of the legendary
heroines Of the house of Savoy. The
first Mafalda was a daughter of ANA
dec ILL.,, Of Savoy; she delighted in
all manly exercises, and, clad in ar
NOR, led Piedmontese contingent to
help Milan when it was besieged by
Frederick Barbarossa. The emperor
fell in love with her, and when she
was captured after being defeated in
a hand-to-hand fight, gave her the
choice between death and becoming
his mistress. She very properly
chose death, declaring that she be-
longed to the house Of Savoy and that
no member of that house had ever
been a coward. Alfonso Henriquez,
who subsequently became king of
Portugal, managed to make the en-
peror give her up, and afterward he
married the princess. After her hus-
bands death Queen Mafalda became
a nun in the nunnery. at Coimbra
Historical dates do not tally with the
legend, but Mafalda is undoubtedly
a historical person. Her grand
daughter, of the same name, was
made venerable in the Catholic
church on account of her piety. The
name Mafalda is explained as being
the form the Portuguese gave to the
harsh name of Mechtild or Matilda

Commencing with this issue we
have decided to reduce the price
of the Sheaf to $500 per year,
strictly in advance. If not paid
in advance the price will be SIPS
per year. Though the Sheaf is
we'll worth $3.50 per year, when
the amount of work expended
upon its specification in comparison
with other county papers, is taken
into consideration, yet as other
publishers have reduced their
price, the Sheaf is obliged to do
the same. We now offer the pa
perfor the coming year at $l.O0 in

be settled at the former price,

LEGEND OF THE CREATION.
The Hindoo Idea-Curious Notions
Entertained in the Far East.

Ihe H1nd00 ldea-Curl0uS Notions
Entertained in the Far East.
AS is generally known the earliest
source for the religion Of India is the
hymns of the Rig Veda, the date of
which is now fixed at about 1000B.C.
In one of these hymns we first see the
creator Purusha, who is simply a
S*magnified man. A god-like turn
is given to this idea, however, under
which the Purusha becomes the call
mall" and then becomes closely as
sociated with the universe, with what
has been and what shall be. All gods,
the animals and castles are parts of
him. The moon is his mind, the
sun his eye, from his mouth sprang
lndra and Agni, the Hindu gods of
wisdom and speech; from his breath
Vayu, the god Of love; heaven from
his head and earth from his feet.
This spring-out theory, when freed
from all It's early elements OF tradl-
ton, POUNDS the source of the many
god idea, pure and simple. In accord
with this view creative activity is
carried back in other hymns to FFde-
SIRE" We also read in the stories Of
the Veda that "desire is the seed of
the mind" -Brooklyn Eagle.
