valuable relic of the Confedcracy, in
the shape Of his commission as as
sistant surgeon, which he has prcserv-
ed since October, 1861. Dr. Mcintosh
enlisted in the Eighth South Carolina
regiment, and went to the front, and
when the time for reorganization
came, he was so afraid that he would
not get in the further fighting he re-
signed his commission from the
State as assistant surgeon, and re-
enlisted in his company as a private.
He was then commissioned by the
Confederate States government. and
did valiant service for the South.
DIR. Mcintosh was seen as he was
preparing to send his commission to

Interesting Data Has Been Com
piled and Published
by Princeton.

Princeton, n. J.. June 21-The decen-
nial record Of the class of 1901 Of Prince
Ton University, issued here shows that
the average income of the members Of
that class ten years after graduation is
almost 1900. The table includes the earn
ings of each year since graduation and
increases steadily, except for the sew
enth year, which was the time of rhe
1907 panic. The lawyers lead the list at
the end Of ten years with an average
Of $L99LS, and the business men, in
cluding bankers. Insurance men and
publishers, are close seconds with an av-
erage OF A.sSL69.
The average incomes were. First y'sar,
S7O6.44: second year. SSO2s9; third year.
81. 1884; fourth year. 81, l,65ll5; fifth year
S,039.42: sixth year, s., 2,40S.3O; seventh
year, s., $50 %: eighth year, S2,709.37: ninth
year, SELLS; tenth year. S3,SO3.5S. This
record includes only Individual earnings
and is exclusive Of allowances and lega-
cies.
The class OF 1906 Of Yale Is the only
satisfactory basis for a comparison with
Yale or Harvard classes. The first five
years record of Princsson 1901 and Yale
1905 shows that the Yale men earned
more during the first thras years. but the
earnings OF the Prime stOn men increased
more rapidly. and at the end OF FIVE
years are almost $500 more than the
Yale average. The Yale average incomes
were STiOI4, SSsSsO, Sl.2Ss.sl. Sl.522 IS, 81
SS5.S, as compared with tn Princeton
averages OF S706.44 SS02.59, $l.l9s.s4, N,65Ll5,
S2.O5942
other statistics compiled by the 1901
men show the comparative number OF
ma srTiages OF Yale, Harvard, and Prince
ton, and the number OF children which
have 1901 fathers from these several col
leges. The class Of 1901 from Princeton
shows that OF 26S men 175, or a percent
age OF So. are married. They have
total Of 2l9 children. or a percentage Of
I.2 to a marriage. The class OF 1901 OF
Harvard has TO members OF whom SSs
are married. a percentage OF So. They
have a total Of E3 children, or a per-
centage OF lO3 TO a marriage At Yale
from a class of 235 graduating in 1901,
Us. or a percentage of SIS are married.
They have 90 children, or a percentage
OF only on.
