HADLEY ON POLITICS.
Says It is a Game and Must be Played by
 Definite Rules.

Dehntte RuIea.
 Cambridge, Mass, Jan. 1s.-President A. T. Hadley, of Yale, addressed Har- ward students at the Union tonight upon the topic Opportunities for Po- litical Influence" Among other things, he said:
 Politics is game and must be play ed out by definite rules. Still, no man should be an extremist, either indepen- dent or partisan. He should strike a happy medium, but should not enter the political field at all unless rich, for if he does he will have to yield sooner or later to the wrong influence, or else get out and starve.''

THE FALLS OF IGUAZU.
South American Wonder Second Only
to NIAGARA.

South American Wonder Second Only
to Niagara.
Though practically unknown to the
world at large. the falls of Iguazu
stand second only to Niagara. The
1guazu river forms the boundary be-
tween Argentina and Brazil. Twelve
miles above it's junction with the
Parana the river bed bends almost at
right angles. The main volume of
water, moving with great velocity
round the inner or Brazilian bank,
PUSHES into a longs narrow gorge, at
one point lin which the waters make a
clear leap of 210 feet. This gorge
does not intercept the whole volume
Of the river water and the surplus cur
rents rush out past it into the wide
elbow formed by the bend, descending
in two leaps Of 100 feet each in the
horseshoe called the Argentine falls.
The distance from where the waters
enter the Brazilian pit to their last
cascade on the Argentine side is 5000
feet.
