NEW HAVEN, Conn, Aug. S.-The
report of the Yale Bureau of Appoint
ments for the year 1856 just COM

ual items of work were given to stu

the nine months of the college year,
from which the men have reported
total earnings of $44,S0S.74; 231 posit-

which the estimated total income is
s45,619--a grand total of earnings by
students from work directly referred
to them by the Bureau of s90.42774
How Men Made Money.
The following interesting and I'M
usual items of work were obtained by
students through the Bureau during
the year:
Fourteen men canvassed names for
a petition to place the question of
local option before the voters.
Nine men served in an anti-mosquito
campaign, draining the salt marshes
surrounding New Haven.
Four men were subjects in psy-
chology experiment.

TWO BOYS CONFESS
TO STARTING BLAZE

ELWOOD, Ind, Aug. S.-The police
here stood aghast while two twelve
year-old boys told how they fired the
Home Storage Manufacturing plant
and planned to burn the yards of the
Elwood Lumber company. Tony
Kuskhabbage and Harry Haskell, the
boys, said they started a fire at the
storage company yesterday morning,
threw a handful of cartridges into the
flames and then ran as the bullets be-
gan flying. The only explanation the
police have been able to get is that
the boys were obsessed with desire
to see a big fire.

Working Up a Marine

ioIH COlHeT s.
The bound volume of 'Harper's Month
ly Magazine" for 1858 contains an article
by Captain Mackinnon of the royal navy
describing his trip from Liverpool to New
York by the Cunarder America and his
return on the Collins liner Baltic. Cap
tain Mackinnon gives eight and a half
to ten knots as the speed of the Cum
arder as against anything up to Is knots
by the American vessel. The American
passenger ships of that day he describes
as beyond any conception, the finest,
the fastest, and the best sea boats in the
world" How our merchant marine was
allowed to lose it's proud position and all
but disappear from the seven seas is one
of the saddest stories of American near
sightedness ever written. During the
Civil war period it was England who
forged ahead of us on the ocean; more
recently Germany has surpassed us.
Scandinavia now prospers nightly at
sea, and 1t Is Japan'e turn also. Not
only are Japanese trade and manufac-
lures booming-1915 is likely to be SUR
passed by-1916 and 1915 showed a s60,0O0,-
600 increase in exports and an $4,000 600
trade balance in her favor--but the
Japanese shipyards are feverishly active,
and within two years Japanese steamship
lines promise to be in practically undis-
puted mastery of the transpacific carry
ing trade About 5000 men are now busy
augmenting Japan's military and mercan-
tile fleets-and the shipyards at Yoko-
hama, Kobe Osaka, Uraga, Harada and
Fujinagata are humming as never before
Not content with shipbuilding the Jap
anese are buying, too; If the profits of
government munition plants, which are

chases as that of two of the fine vessels
