SIR ERIC BARRINGroN RETTREs.

Sir Eric Darlington. who retiring in June
on pension from the Office of Assistant Under
secretary OF State for Foreign Affairs after forty
years OF service is OF the most familiar figures
IN the official and social life OF England. and as
private secretary has been the alter ego OF the late
Lord Salisbury and OF many other Ministers OF
Foreign Affairs. He is younger brother Of the
late Niscount harrington. and uncle. therefore,
Of the present peer who in this country last
fall though, of course. in nowise related 10 the
English criminal who appeared in various parts OF
this country and abused the confidence of many
persons under the OF Lord harrington"
The origin Of the family related by Dean Swift.
OF "Gullivers Travels celebrity, somewhat
romantic. 1t seems that in tho early part OF the
eighteenth century John Shute. young Presby-
terian. attracted the attention OF John Widman a
rich Berkshire landowner. and on HIS death the lat
ter willed him his entire property as being the
worthiest person that he had ever encountered.
There relationship between the two men.
and their personal acquaintance Of the slight
est. Not long afterward a Mr.. Francis harrington.
who had married n Miss Elizabeth Shute died
without issue and when his Will opened II
found that he too had left his entire property
TO his dead wife5 distant knsmau. John Shute.
stpuiating however. that he should the
name and arms OF harrington John had thus be-
come rich man. and as a large landowner pos
sessed OF much political influence. Under the cir
cumstances II was only natural that the govern
ment OF tho day. anxious for his support. should
procure for him pcerage, and he was created. in
l7ep Viscount Harrington. IN the Kingdom OF Ire
land. The dignity being Irish one. he was able

DIR. ELIOT RESENTS TAX
WH Fight Bin to LeUy on Homes of
College Professors.

Boston, April 16-Alarmed by a bill intro
duced in the Legislature for the taxation Of the
homes Of college officers. the presidents and
other representatives Of all the high educational
institutions OF the state are Fastening TO a con-
ference hurriedly called by President Charles
W. Eliot Of Harvard. to be held in Boston to-
morrow.
President Eliot cancelled an engagement to
address the peace congress in New York to-day
10 make the necessary preparations for the con-
ference In statement issued tonight Presi-
dent Eliot said:
The fact that Harvard University may have
less to lose from the immediate effects Of the
present bill than Boston College Wellesley
college Is not relevant The interest Of Har-
the other colleges and universities In MaSsa-
chuSettS on the fundamental question OF whether
the commonwealth shall abandon it's traditional
policy In support OF higher education.
The general fact that every town or city that
harbOrs a college receives a material cOmpen-
satton for the exemption Of the college taxa
tion In the form Of higher neghbOring vaua-
tiOns hardly needs further argument II was
proved beyond the shadow Of doubt by the
figures submitted 70 the recess Committee on
Taxation and to the committee Of the present
Legislature IF there was any evidence that
college owned houses used as residences for
professors, rnenaced the operation Of this rule
of compensation, there might be some 1ustif-
such evidence the bill can be regarded only In
one light, namely, attempt to weaken the
foundations of the exemption policy.
The fact that the bill works Iyslight harm
10 certain institutions IS no argument in its
favor. 1t attacks the vitals OF other institu-
ions. and as an entering wedge It threatens the
SerVlceablenesS of every endowed college, uni
versity and scientific institution in the state.
