ALMA MATER ALWAYS LOVED To the End of Life College Man Thinks With Joy of His Golden
 Student Days.

The phrase College life" is an Americanism and it has no equivalent in any other language but English. It describes, to those who use it with un- derstanding and sympathy. an expert ence out of which grows deep senti- ment made up of pleasure, friendship, affection, loyalty and pride. It seems to them "a tender influence, peculiar grace" that reaches out across miles and years, drawing them back to their Alma Mater, and the comradeship of their classmates. To most graduates their college life seems their golden age; through the mist of years the campus becomes an Island of Utopia whose very tSdiums grow bright in the retrospect, the sting of whose sins and failures was always lessened by the power of the ideals and hopes that filled it's air. No campus ever was a Utopia, and the most golden age of memory has doubtless been much al- loved with baser metal, but if there is not something very bright and beauti- full in American college life it is hard to account for the feeling in thousands of gray-haired men that long ago in their youth, besides the education they got or failed to get, they gained around the knees of Alma Mater lasting joy, strength and inspiration that was not entirely contained qin the books they read and cannot be exactly measured by the knowledge they acquired .-Paul Van Dyke, in seribner's Magazine.

SPIES HELP TO WELLINGTON
AFchivist of French War Office Says Spanish Officers Betrayed the
 Great Napoleon

An interesting statement was made not long ago before tho French Acad- amio des Sciences Morales ct Poli- tiAues, by M. Bonnal, archivist to the French war office. According to M Ronnal, Dumouriez, coached" Yelling ton from 1898 to 1874, and the latter often reaped the benefit of betrayals by aristocratic French officers who had relatives in London.
 M. Bonnal goes to the archives of the Spanish war office, there to hunt up confessions by Spanish officers in the service of King Joseph Bonaparte of their own treason--some of these confessions recorded as early as 1915, under Ferdinand VII. Without any sort of shame they acknowledge then that they betrayed Joseph to secret agents of Wellington.
 In time of universal scare, We'll ington saw more clearly than anyone this was his great merit-that Ma poleon was fast using up the military resources of France, and, indeed, all but it's soil, climate and genius, and tiring out the latter. He managed to keep Spain an open sore in the ene- my's flank, and thus left hopes to the continental courts for the downfall of the Corsican If they could coalesce against him.
 M. Bonnal says that plans dictated by Napoleon for his brother King Jo- seph's guidance were found by guerril- las and passed on to Wellington. The idea of the lines of Torres Vedras to defend Lisbon has been placed to the credit of that renowned captain. Their real author is now discovered in the French Colonel Vincent, who knew the country and had served as military engineer under Junot and Dupont. His plans to fortify the Torres Vedras hills were stolen and sent to Yelling ton.
