a Hearty Meal for -Four Cents.


Few people are so fortunate as to
be Indifferent to the cost Of the neces-
saries Of life. Mr.. George KEENAN, has
discovered an institution which he de-
clares has solved, or come near to solv-
ing. the difficult problem Of furnishing
the prime requisites Of human existence,
namely, shelter and food, at per capita
cost oftwenty-three cents day.
IN the March McClure's Mr.. KEENAN,
writes:
"0f all the attempts that have re-
Gently been made to lessen the cost Of
living, by building model tenements,
eliminating middlemen, buying provi.
sions in large quantities, and saving I'M
necessary waste, the most interesting.
and perhaps the most successful, is that
of the Valparaiso university, an institu-
tion, and fewer still know definitely any
thing about it and its effort TO furnish
higher education at rates within the
means Of the average American fam
ily"
This IS made possible chiefly by extra
ordinary management OF the commits
sary. MI. KEENAN, gives tables showing
exactly how it is all done. He says:
The first meal that | took in the
Valparaiso university was four-cent
breakfast. served at a. m. in Herr
tage hall Il consisted Of delicious ap-
pie sauce bread and butter, rolled oats,
baked potatoes, coffee with mak and
sugar, and big red apples Of the highest
market grade. Everything Was nlim
tied in quantity, and | began the day
with as good and hearty a meal as any
student need desire"

Cut Boom Hold Log Drive.

The main boom across the river at
South Charlestown, N. H., which was
holding the logs Of the Van Dyke drive
was cut by some person or persons
some time during Wednesday night
and a large number of the logs came
down against the logs OF the interim
tional Paper CO.. which are now being
drawn out. The act is generally attri-
buted TO some feeling resulting from
the recent controversy in relation to
keeping tbe river passsbe for boats,
but as that matter was supposed to
have been settled by an entirely fair
and satisfactory agreement, covering
the matter temporarily, it is not un
dcrstood what could be gained by such
an act. The loss is not large, as the
legs can readily be distinguished as
between the two drives and when the
drivers reach Bellows Falls the Van
Dyke logs can be sent over the damn
first. The Bellows Falls Boat Club will
Use every endesvor to discover who is
at fault. Only the best OF feeling has
seemed to exist between the navigaters
az Bellows Falls and the managers of
