Cambridge, Mass, Nov 25.-Broken clouds. driven before high southwest wind, gave hope early this forenoon to the tens of thousands of cOllegianS alumni and others who mad throngeG to this city and to Boston to see the great football contest between Harvard and Yale this afternoon, that the weather bureaus prediction of possi- Die rain might not be fulfilled. There was heavy shower during the night but unless more rain should fall be fore afternoon it appeared probable that the turf on the gridlron of Har- yards enormous stadium Oh Soldiers field would be well dried out before the time set for the game to begin.
 All day yesterday and until the last trains rumBled into the tNo union sta. tions i'll Boston last night, enthusiastic supporters of the Crimson and the Blue were arriving in steady streams, and with the first trains early to-day the rush was resumed. All the accom- modations ill the dormitories. hotels and apartment houses in this city were quickly snapped up last night and every hotel in Boston hafbored its hundreds of intended spectators. For ty-three thousand persons, throng probably greater than any that ever before has watched an athletic contest of any description ill this country, had purchased seats in the permanent benches of the stadium and the tenn. porary stands erected for this event.
 Everywhere in Boston and Cam bridge fiuttered the crimson and the blue. Shop windows were brightly decorated with flags and streamers, and restaurants and hotel dining rooms were hung with the two colors.
 Yale men were confident of an easy victory yet the loyal supporters of Harvard showed no sign of discourage ment. Captain Hurley's enforced ab- sence from the game only urged tlie Harvard eleven on to determination to put forth its utmost efforts to win And the Harvard contingent on the stands was resolved to give heart to the players by such singing and cheer ing as never before was heard in the university city.

hatrpds occupy much time. Virginia,
lik, the other Southern States, is busy
pluwlng her farms, building ships and
locomotives, saving lumber, fattening
sleek cattle and constructing new
homes, to give attention TO fighting the
war over. But in Il way it is not over,
and will not be until the state has again
reached the place to which it will one
day come financially and industrially d.

After leaving Alexandria the first point
that presents tangible evidences is
Fredericksburg. The sleepy old town
has not advanced a great deal since
Burnside lost eleven thousand men
there in the winter of 1862 in his hope
less effors to get between Lee and Rich
mond. On the hill above the town is II
cemetery kept by the National Govern
ment, and in it are several thousand
Union soldiers. All over the South are
similar witnesses to the horrors of war.
Every great BATTLEFIELD is perpetuated by
its National Cemetery, some of the
cemeteries having as high as fifteen
thousand soldier dead buried within
their walls.
Fredericksburg is a cherries spot,
possibly through the recollection of
disasters that beset the Union Army at
the place. Burnside was given the
army that he might make good the
evil fortune that had attended it under
Mcclellan. He lost his one great fight
fredericksburg, and asked to be re-
lieved from command Hooker follow
ed him, and in the spring attempted to
Lee, who still remained en-
near fredericksburg. The re-
suit was charlottesville, with the loss
of another twelve thousand men. Next
year Grant came, and he commenced
his victorious campaign not far from
fredericksburg, fighting the Wilder
ness battles over the ground that had
seen the battle of charlottesville
under Hooker. Grant fought all the
way down to Richmond, and his success
cost the North sixty thousand men.

to eiface the sears. We talk OF the
readiness with which the French re-
covered from the war with Germany
and paid an enormous indemnity. We
should rather talk of the manner in
which Virginia, left with nothing but
the terrible memory of four years of
fire and conscription and foraging and
fighting and all the horrors of war, has
come into courageous prosperity
and renewed her industries, created
new ones and advanced with the other
states of the nation. Virginia was the
scene of the most destructive war ever
fought. Every regiment on either side
was recruited from intelligence and
ability. 1t is reputed to President
Lincoln that he said that every regi-
ment that went to the front from the
North had sufficient material in it to
select cabinet from as good as the one
he had. All professions and all crafts
were represented in the ranks. All
manner of American inventive genius
was called in to help make this war de-
structive. The breech-loading rife,
the machine gun, the iron clad battle
ship, and an innumerable list of Internal
devices were invented and put into
practical use in the war that devastated
Virginia. The whole country, the most
civilized country on the globe, with the
most limitless resources, was brought
into the service to make the war hell.
And while the effects reached all over
the South, the persistent and relentless
force swept back and forth from Rich
mond to Washington which is the
Potomac Valley Of Virginia
But cruel as the theory may seem,
war has its compensating side. From
every great war has followed great
step in human progress. The American
people were awakened to a wonderous
new effort by the civil war, and the
strides made since the closing days at
are without parallel in
the history of the race.
There is notion in the North that
the war is not yet over. The wrong
idea prevails, however, for in the South
the struggle has been too costly to let

ended at the surrender OF Lee. Wash

Other eminent Virginians have lived
not far distant. While Washing ton

great struggles fredericksburg was the

lines of earthworks and the Federal
Cemeteries are the visible signs to-day.

should bethe aim of every American to
some day visit the sceues of the Vir-
ginia campaigns, for here is only place
where the effects OF the war can be fully
understood.
Sherman said war Is hell Sherman
knew, for no other conquering invader
ever spread such desolation behind him
as Sherman was compelled to leave in
that gigantic swath of ruin which mark
ed the route from Atlanta to the sea
and from the sea north through the
Carolinas. Sherman's trite saying has
been repeated so much that it passes as
fippant jest. But it is Il terrible truth.
War is hell, and more, for it is the cul-
mination of all the ills that beset man.
kind. We of the North see in war
bereavement of families, property loss
in additional taxation, and such tenn
porary incidentals. But where the
campaign drags its blighting length
through the weary years it is another
story.
War ragged four years in Virginia in
the most virulent form, and it meant
more than simply killing men. An
army of a hundred thousand men cannot
move along country road like a Sun
day school parade. When an army
moves, the trail left is like the path OF
a gruesome plague. The track is as
wide as counties, for an army cannot
move on single track. When Virginia
from the four years of de-
struction, not only were her men gone,
but her homes were burned, her farms
were destroyed, stock was scattered,
seed corn was eaten, farming imple-
ments had been used for firewood when
fencerails were exhausted railroads
were pulled up, and destruction ruled
supreme. We can still see evidences of
what war did for Virginia.
Not that Virginia has stood still in
these forty years. The contrary is the
case. But time has not yet been able
