VANDERBILT TO BE
HARVARD GRIND
Millionaire Will Foreswear Pleas
rre and Do Four Years
Work in Three.
New York Sun Special Service.

Cambridge, Mass, Sept. 14.-Not
content with loafng along and taking his
decree of bachelor Of arts in the time
taken by, ordinary students, Harold
Vanderbilt, of the junior class of Har-
ward, has decided to accomplish four
years work in three years, and grad
1907. - 49, y
:. To be able to do this the young mil
llonalre has been compelled to fore
swear many Of the pleasures of under
graduate life, and particularly to re-
sign the position of first assistant man
ager Of the varsity football team, one
OF the coveted places of honor in the
crimson university. Had he held this
position this fall by natural rotation he
would have been manager next fall, the
holder of which position is usually the
most prominent man in the university.
Vanderbilt is following out the ideas
| Of President Eliot in deciding to gradu-
ate in three years instead of four.
Such course is advisable, President
Eliot thinks, because college is only a
preparation for life work, and too much
time should not be wasted in it.
It is difficult matter to graduate in
three years and Vanderbilt has made a
ever, he is not the kind of fellow to
give up thing simply because it is
hard. He has had many hard knocks
in Harvard, and he ahas stood them
we'll. In his freshmen year he was
manager Of the 1903 football eleven
That first brought him into prominence
and gave him an idea Of business. Last
year he was assistant manager of the
varsity team, where he gained more
valuable experience, doing the "dog
work. for hard taskmaster, the man
| ager. Youthful and awkward in ap
pearance, some of his fellow students
laughed at him. But he performed his
duties in satisfactory manner and
made them respect him.
Socially, Vanderbilt occupies prom
inent position. He was a member Of
cial college organization, and late,
joined the Porcelain, the wealthiest
and most exclusive college club here, Of
which President Roosevelt was a mem
Der. He also belongs to several othe,
clubs: Owing to his retiring DISPOSE
tion he has few friends outside of hi
social affiliations, but what few he ha
admire him.

Of Interest to Travellers.

Clothes Difference

a man doesn't look as well as the fine
illustrations of Men wearing SUP

First place, all men are not built alike
-Ready-made clothes are-only the

Now stand lot of men up and look at
them from square side view-some

more Or less stooped-THEY ALL
DIFFER-the same suit won't fit them
all-even in the same size.
Three measurements differ-the REL
ALIVE DISTANCE between three
points: the precise position of the
highest point in the back-the collar
and the points at the waist line front
and back. The MORE A MAN
STOOPS the longer the back and the
shorter the front measurements. That
they are all made alike is the reason

method of teaching reading. There is
no work which requires greater skill

child just beginning school life.
Teachers who have taught before will

Months Term Voted.

The annual meeting Of the Prince
ton public schools was held on Sat-
urday evening, July Is, a goodly
number of people being present. A
synopsis of the proceedings follows:
DR.. Cooney was chosen moderator
and Rose D. Patterson, by a vote of
ffty-six against thirty for c. A.
Dickey, was reelected clerk
The treasurer's report showed that
the receipts for the year, including
money on hand at commencement,
amounted to SIG, 5O0.34, and that the
disbursements aggregated S13, 1855.
Cash on hand at end of year So, O44. 40.
A petition from Brickton signed by
twenty-three freeholders was presented
asking that suitable school building
be provided-either a new structure
or that the old one be remodeled and
placed in condition to meet the de-
mand. The petition was accepted and
the clerk instructed to issue a call for
a special meeting to vote bonds for
such improvement as shall be recon-
mended by the board.
The sum of $4,000 was voted to
operate the public schools for the COM
ing year and the school term fixed at
nine months.
W. Fl. Terrell moved that neither the
clerk or treasurer be allowed salary
in excess of that provided by law.
According to this law the clerk re-
ceives but Sc per annum and the treas
urer nothing. By a vote of the peo-
pie, however, the salary of the treas
urer can be fixed at two per cent of
the cash passing through his hands
and the clerks at such sum as may be
deemed reasonable. The treasurer
should surely be recompensed for his
services and the clerk receive fair
salary.

Defects of the one-Crop system.

It is reported that the lands of the
Red River valley of the Dakotas are
rapidly losing their fertility, because
the farmers have grown nothing but
wheat since the country was opened to
settlement. This is to be expected of
any land where the one-crop system is
practiced, according to one of Prof.
Milton Whitney's staff. He declares
the south is suffering from the same
cause. In many sections farmers
have grown cotton and tobacco con-
tinuously on the same land for many
years. The result is that the land is
now so poor that it will raise neither
proftably. The farmers of the Mid

REUBEN N. MAYO DIES
Was Veteran of the Civil War and
Pioneer Lumberman of
the Northwest.
Death Results at His Home i'm FOrestOn
from Effects of Wounds
Received in Battle.

Reuben M. Mayo, veteran of the
civil war and Minnesota pioneer,
died at his home in Foreston. Mile
Laos county, On Saturday, July Is,
aged seventy-two years.
Mr.. Mayo was born in Waldo
county, Maine, on May 9, 1888. He
was reared in his native state and en-
gagged in numbering until coming to
Minnesota in 1855. He followed his
former occupation here until the COM
mencement of the war, when he en-
listed in Company E of the First Min
nesota volunteer infantry. He served
with some distinction until wounded
near Fairfax court house, after which
he was compelled to remain in the
hospital for months and was finally
discharged for disability in conse-
quence of the wounds received. Then
returning to his native state he re-
manned until 1866, when he again came
to Minnesota and re-engaged in the
lumber business both on the Missis-
sippi and Rum rivers, residing at
that time upon the homestead of his
father in Livonia, Sherburne county,
and remaining there until about six
years ago, when he settled upon the
farm in Foreston where he died. He
was married on January "a, 1876, to
Miss Addie E. Burroughs of Isanti
county, who survives him. Among
other surviving relatives are one
brother, F. G. Mayo, Minneapolis;
four sisters, Mrs. S. B. Heath, Mrs.
Viola Wedgewood, Mrs. Fanny Heath,
Princeton: Mrs. S. T. Thomas,
Fargo, and numerous nephews and
nieces, among them the Mcclellan
brothers and Mrs. Rose Patterson,
Princeton.
The deceased had been a great
sufferer, and was compelled from the
effects of wounds received in the war
to resort to crutches in order to get
about. For, the past six years, how
ever, he had been continually con-
fined to the house and his death was
not unexpected. He was a member Of
the Grand Army of the Republic and
a most honorable citizen.
The funeral ceremony was conducted
in the Methodist church, Princeton,
on Monday at 1 p. m. by Revs. Park
inson of Foreston and Hays of Ham
line, the services at the grave in Oak
Knoll cemetery being performed by
