Lord Blount Not the Only
Englishman Who Has
Aided the College.

New Haven, Oct (SpeciaD.-The gift of
an estate valued at half a million dollars to Yale
by Archibald Henry Blount, Lord of the Manor
of Oreton, England who had never the
university and who is said TO have been
to the United States. is of the many be-
quests to American colleges by persons entirely
unknown to the recipients
President Hadley could not recall having
heard of Mr.. Blount. when news came of the
latter's death and his will giving to Yale his
entire estate. Few of the presidents of East
ern colleges had ever heard of Daniel B. Fayer-
weather, the New York leather merchant when
his will was announced nearly twenty years
ago, leaving them sums ranging from 100000 to
S0oo.oco Although President Hadley did not
know of Mr.. Blounts plans other Yale off,
cials however, did. For years Mr. Blount had
carried on a correspondence with the former
treasurer, William W. Farnam; the former
secretary, Franklin Bowditch Dexter and for
mer President Dwight. at time sending a
copy of his will TO Mr.. Farnam
Since the news OF Mr.. Blount's death and he
quest have been received, speculation has been
rife at Yale over the origin of the interest the
university's benefactor took in an institution
thirty-hve hundred miles away and in for
eign country. There is theory held by some
persons which seems plausible although lack
Ing circumstantial verifcaton. Mr. Blount
lived in Herefordshire. near the home Of George

her rights to the rentals by a long term lease

from such distinguished Englishmen as Sir Isaac
Newton. Sir Richard Steele and Drs Burnet

CLERICAL TYPES.

Clerical types are changing in the English

chase. His son from oxford or Cambridge may
be called at o'clock to saddle the rectory pony
and ride to the meet, but he himself has
grown either too virtuous too rusty for the
oldtime sport of the hunting shires. The po-
litical parson followed the fox-hunting vicar
and a conspicuous type during the Vic
torian reign. but he also has vanished from
view, at least within the Anglican communion

The game within the established preserves
must be ecclesiastical This is a fair inference
from the programme of the Church parliament
at Yarmouth. The important questions to be
discussed are those which primarily concern
Church men. The Dean Of Norwich is largely
responsible for the programme. and while an
ld-fashioned evangelical Church man himself
he has faith in the efficacy of free discussion
He has chosen what may be regarded as burn
ing questions of ecclesiastical politics and has
called upon partisans on each side to debate
them. There is the contentious subject of
ritual. which the English Church is divided

like the Dean of Lichfeld. the Dean of Canter-
bury and Prebendary Webb-Peploe; and every
