Harvard in Vain Hunt
For An Educated Man

BOSTON, March s.-Diogenes' pursuit
of an honest man was a 1O-to-l shot
compared with the search for an edu-
Gated man now going on at Harvard.
If what the professors say is true. there
is no such thing as an educated man.
The Lampoon. in discussing the situa-
tion grows rather caustic.
mo man can call himself educated"
says Prof. B.. who is unacquainted
with the language of the ancient Assyr-
ians."
DO you geneltmen." explodes Prof.
K, "call yourselves erudite who do not
know the philosophy of Yogi from that
of Santayana?"
1--WE wonder how many decades it
would be-" says the Lampoon, before
we could take all the courses that we
should have taken. And II We took
all the courses that We should have
taken would we then be savants?'

"A postcard came from Torole today

teenth Squadron of the Royal Flying
Corps at Marlborough, England. He

canal. where we had all taken hot show

ask you to send us a baseball outfit.
Spring was In the air. and everything

baseball fever.

ways than its size. 1t has been pointed
out often enough that the firing, line

half mile or so to the rear and be en-
tirely out Of the danger zone. People

new YORK MARKET
HAS STRONG TONE
Advances Ranging From One
Half to Two Full Points Are
Recorded.

NEW YORK. March s.-The stock
market today continued to manifest the
strong tone that developed Saturday.
and further advances ranging generally
from one-half to more than two full
points were recorded. The railroad
stocks appeared to be stronger than
the industrials and specialties.
While there has been no definite news
to substantiate the expressions Of opin-
ion regarding the termination Of hos
tilitiss In Europe In the near future, the
impression appears to be gaining ground
and Is credited In large measure for the
present rise In security values. The
progress OF the allied fleet in the bonn
bardment Of the Dardanelles is pointed
to as the most promising indication Of
the possible conclusion OF the war.
Commission houses were executing buy
ing orders throughout the morning, and
the technical position Of the market ap-
peared to be good. as operators said
that the rise In prices was due to in
vestment orders rather than to covering
of short accounts.
Canadian Pacific was one of the
strongest issues in the market, advanc-
ing "a points in the early trading to
1904. New Haven sold up IN points to
521a. but later eased off. United States
steel common registered gain of near
ly point by selling at 46h. and the
| street railway stocks were among the
| market leaders. Third Avenue gaining
| lk at joa4, and Interborough preferred
lA, selling at 5Sh.

PARK RIDGE, N. j., March S-Frank
English. all altar boy. was on his way
to early mass when he noticed that the
water wheels Of the electric power plant
here were still turning. Thinking this
unusual. he went inside and found the
night engineer, Edward Griesch, bound
and gagged.
Griesch said he had been visited by
threo masked men. who told him to
shut down the plant and thus cut OF
all electric lights in the town. They
also demanded that he direct them to
the houses of the wealthiest people here,
he said.
The engineer said he refused. and that
they attacked him. bound his hands and
feet, and thrust a gag into his mouth.
and made off with 500 which he had in
his pocket. The authorities are investi-
eating his story.
