The United States Circuit Court, in In

The opinion of the Supreme Court, given
by Justice Holmes, was based the
ground that the system of taxation pro-

commerce.

Holmes, Ito tax property beyond the jur-

The chief justice and Justices Brewer

CaSsius G. Hadley, assistant attorney
general, delivered final arguments the
case in Washington three weeks ago. The
States contention had been that some rela-

a basis of taxation, inasmuch as some
express companies had larger interests in
Indiana than others.

The address of DIR. Roberts was upon the
value of veterinary science in the protec-
ton of the human race. He said that the
modern veterinary was not a horse doc
tor but a trained scientist, who guarded
the human race from such diseases as
were easily transmitted from animals to
humans. He cited many cases in which
the veterinary and human medical profess
sion were working hand in hand. Follow

HARVARD MEN CELEBRATE
BIRTHDAY OF DR.. ELIOT
Students Unite in Observing the
University Presidents Sew
entieth Anniversary.
ADDRESS is PRESENTED

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, March 2l-Gradu-
ates and under graduates of Harvard Uni
versity united to-day in observing the
SEVENTEEN anniversary of President Charles
William Eliot's birth, which also marked
his completion of thirty-five years at the
head of the university. AT a mass meeting
OF the students this afternoon President
Eliot was presented with an engrossed adj
dress signed by nearly 10000 Harvard men.
AT the same time he was informed that the
students had subscribed 5000 for portrait
of himself and Mrs. Eliot to be hung in the
union. The presentation of the address fol-
lowed a reception on the platform of the
Harvard union and after the president had
shaken hands with more than 10000 Har-
ward men. the majority of whom were un-
dergraduates. The address bore the sigma
ture of many distinguished men. including
President Roosevelt, Chief Justice Melville
w. Fuller. Secretary of State John Hay,
Senator George f. Hoar, Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge, Or. Edward Everett Hale and
Bishop William Lawrence. 1t was in two
volumes and handsomely bound in leather.
The address, which was read by Thomas
Knowlton, began:
Dear Mr.. President-As with undimin-
we greet you,' and closed with these words:
Fearless, just and wise, of deep and sim
pie faith; serene in affection, restrained in
success, unsupported by any of self-inter-
est, you command the admiration of all
men and the gratitude and loyalty of the
sons of Harvard-Charles William Eliot
D."
In reply, President Eliot declared that
he had been overwhelmed with the kind
ly sentiments expressed. He said: Il have
had two happy days This is a good
climax In the first twenty years of my
service / was conscious of a spirit which,
to say the least, did not agree with me,
both in the faculty and board and board
of overseers. But in the last fifteen years
the attitude has changed and during the
last two days L have been overwhelmed by
expressions of affection. If / were TO sum
UP in few words the expressions which
have pleased me most, 1 would quote the
last words of the inscription of the loving
cup presented me by the faculty. If L had
been known for all these virtues my pas
sions for justice, progress and for truth
| are we'll pleased. For what does university
| life stand for if not for justice; If not for
| progress, and what justice and progress is
| possible without TRUTH
President Eliot has received hundreds OF
congratulatory messages from persons
prominent in the educational, literary, po-
| litical and business world.

SONG RECITAL 1T
THE PROPYLAEUM

Mrs. Beatrice Hubbell Plummer, who will
give a song recital this evening at the
Propylaeum under the auspices of the Cen
trail College of Music. has been styled "A
New York Soprano" and a California
Nightingale but she is in reality an In
diana young woman, her home being in
Goshen She has sung i'm concert all over
America. and is perhaps better known in
other parts of the country than in her ma
tive State.
The Central College of Music is presenting
some fine musical programmes this season
and the recital tonight promises to be one
OF much interest. Mrs. Plummer will
render the entire programme assisted by
Miss Carrie Hyatt, the talented pianist
who will play her Accomplishments. The
selections Will be of great variety. affording
the singer every opportunity 10 show her
versatility. While Mrs. Plummer's profess
sional work has been confined to the con-
cert platform, she has received many flat
tering offers from opera managers. and il
is not unlikely that she will sing in opera
next season.
The entertainment this evening will be
open 10 the general public. and all students
of music Will be admitted at half the regu-
lar admission price.

light. Ii must not be assumed. however,
that Aldebaran Is small. The actual size
of this great chrome star is vast that 1t
forms an attractive object of contemplation.
If the earth were placed midway between
1t and the sun, the star would outshine
the sun leo times. Aldebaran is situated
in the constellation of Taurus. among the
most brilliant stars of the armament. 1t
is the standard first magnitude star. whose
light is the unit by which the magnitudes
of all the other stars of the heavens are
gauged. 1t marks the bulls eye, and is
the most brilliant star in the asterism
called the Hyades. 1t is close to the border
of the splendid constellation of Orion,
whose glittering stars are spread out south
east of it. The Romans called il Palilicium,
because on April Il IL rose heliacaly, or
just before the sun, and this was the day
of the Palilia or anniversary of the founding
of the city.
Formerly occultations were much used
for determining longitude and local time.
The first determination of the Longitude
of Washington city was accomplished by
observing an occultation which occurred
in 1904 just 100 years ago. Incomparably
the most accurate lunar method of deter
mining local time is that of observing
occultations. The moon is then regarded
great clock hand and the stars as the
figures on the dial.
