YALE MEN TAKE TO The LAW.
The Bar Still Attracts one-Thrd Of the
university's Graduates.

ihe statisticians at Yale have
drawn up a table to show what occu-
pations the graduates of the institu-
ton have chosen In the last century.
From the table 1t appears that the
ministry has fallen off greatly as an
attraction.
When the century opened about 80
per cent of Yale graduates were min
listers. Beginning with 1860 this num-
Der took a great fall Since 1865 the
average has been six per cent.
The averages for law and medicine
have remained about the same. AS
rule ten per cent. of Yale's graduates
are doctors. In law the figures have
been steadily about 33 per cent.
In teaching and science the figures
have increased very gradually from
about two per cent. to IL per cent.
The strongest upward tendency has
been that of business. The farmers
have fallen on ever since the southern
planters ceased to enter Yale.
Business now attracts about one
third of the men, and the law about
one-third. The other third Is divided
between the ministry. science. teach

Each Is Broken In Two, but Neither

D. Mcnamara, assistant general pas
senger agent Of the Wabash railroad:
From Clark to Mexico, Mo-, our line
runs almost parallel with that of the
Alton. The distance Is about twenty
miles. 1t Is open country and the
grades are light. The going Is good
and trains race with each other as
often as occasion offers
"One day two long freight trains,
one on each road, reached Clark about
together. A race, of course, was In or
der. Passing Centralia the Wabash en-
gineer turned partly around in his cab
and noting that the Alton man was

broke In two whistle signal for the
information Of his rival. The Alton
man, hearing the signal, himself turned
In his seat and observing that the
Wabash train was considerably shorter
than when the race began he pulled the
throttle open a notch or two more and
smiled as he looked forward to winning
the contest AS the speed of the Wa
bash train continued to increase the
Alton man In spirit of banter gave
with his whistle the broke in two sig
nal. AS there was no apparent effort
made to STOP the signal was repeated.
Again and again was the signal
given by one or the other of the racing
englnemen.
AT length Mexico was reached. both
trains arriving there at the same time
each engineer laughing at the Joke he
would have on his competitor when the
brealR would be discovered. AS soon
as he stopped at the Mexico water tank
the Alton man called across the right of
way:
"How far you goin without your
tail lights?'
THE Wabash man, observing for the
first time his own predicament, said:
Gosh but l thought you was
whstlln' for your own hind end!
