Thomas w. Lawson, as yachtsman, a
financier, and what the late Senator
Cameron of Pennsylvania called ga
literary cuss," does nothing by halves.
His latest literary effort is an apprecia-
ton of "The Crystal Spring of Poland, -
privately printed in the highest style of
the topographic art, with a fine portrait
of the author, and a poem, from which
we quote the following verse:
Here clouds and mountains blended;
Here skies and lakes were one;
And all through bleakest winter,
And summers fiercest sun,
Poland's crystal waters
Bright, increasing run.

The platform adopted at Chicago is to
a greater or less extent, says the Boston
Transcript, the product of President
Taft's suggestion and bears his approval.
1t is conservative at the points where
the stability of our constitutional safe
guards were most seriously menaced; it
is progressive with respect to such ques-
lions as time and popular demand have
brought into the political foreground, or
that have developed from recent events.
Certainly the peoples interests have not
been neglected.

Speaking of the need of 100000
gymnasium and the assistance to be ex-
pected from the alumni, President Chase
of Bates College says in his annual re-
port: "Our alumni will undoubtedly give
to the point Of self-sacrifice, but few of
them have devoted themselves to money
making. Of the 1,648 graduates of the
college, 551 are women. Of the 1,097
men graduates, of whom $50 are living,
II per cent have entered the ministry
and nearly so percent the teaching pro-
fession.' Other needs of the college are
an art building, a museum of natural
history, Y. M. C. A. building and an
administration building, but for the
present the President says efforts should
be centered on securing gymnasium.
