Instantly all the old aninosity Of
the years gone by returned. The man
buried here had stolen from him his
opportunity, had stolen the girl he
loved and then there came to him the
thought that this man had sacrificed
his life for the flag; that this man
had lost his life in bringing success
TO himself and his comrades, and had
helped in saving them from probable
humiliation at the hands of the en-
envy.
Reverently he stopped over the
grave and planted the flag he carried
beside the white stone. AS he
did so a womcn's voice close behind

Yale University Wealthy.

According to the Yale Alumni Week
ly, the property of the university in
New Haven which Is exempted from
taxation, is appraised at $9431 $50, an
Increase of $255, 900 over the apprais-
ed tax exemptions of last year, though
this increase does not necessarily rep
resent actual additional values sub
tracted from the New Haven grand
list. OF the total exemptions about
S1.370,000 belongs to the Sheffield Sci
entific School. The old campus. as
land. is valued at S1,033, 400. and the
buildings on this campus at s2,4S3,500.
The appraisals are high on many Of
the buildings, as compared to actual
cost The valuations are placed, and
as they are exemptions there has
been no occasion TO appeal for their
reduction.

~ s BOY and man, Col. Bryant
IAA had been a soldier. AS a boy
Il y his ambition had been a cadet
ship at West Point, and the
army as a life career. Blessed with
wealthy parents, there seemed nothing
in the way to the accomplishment of
his ideal when the opportune time ar
rived. At 10 he began course of
study that would fit him to pass the
required examination and admit him
to the United States military acad-
envy. At Is the opportunity came.
There was vacancy at the academy
TO be filed by appointment from his
congressional district, and he entered
eagerly into the competition for the
coveted place, feeling confident of
winning the prize.
His most formidable opponent was
Billy Edwards, the son of a strug-
CLING clergyman, into whose path fate
had thrown no special opportunities.
but who had improved every chance
for study that had been given him,
and who wished the appointment
merely as a means OF securing a de-
sired education.
The two had never been friendly,
and ON one Of two occasions had had
some boyish quarrels over the atten-
tions each had attempted TO be
stow upon Blossom Nathan. When
Billy Edwards won the coveted APP
pointment every 'semblance of friend
ship between the two boys ceased.
and Bob Bryant refused even to as
sociate with anyone who called young
Edwards their friend.
Grievously disappointed in not win
ming the cadetship, young Bryant en-
tered a military academy with deter
mination to prepare himself for a
military career, trusting 10 his IA
theirs wealth and influence to secure
for him an appointment TO the army.
During their school days both boys
kept up a correspondence with Bios.
som Nathan until at the end OF three
years Bryant insisted that she could
not retain the friendship of both he
and Edwards, and that all correspond
ence between her and his rival must
cease, or her would have nothing more
TO do with her. The young lady very
promptly informed her angry sutton
that she would choose her own
friends, and he accepted her deci
sion.
Six months after Lieut. Edwards
had graduated from West Point and
entered the army he made Blossom
Nathan his wife, and took her to the
western post, where his command was
stationed.
Bryant in the mountains had fin
ished his college course, and not find
ing Il so ensy to secure a civil APP
pointment TO the army, had settled
down to the study of law in his home
town, and confined his military ambi
lions to a place in local company OF
state guards.
Then came the call to arms to
save the union. The southern states
