The general belief is that the American boy takes his A, B. degrec a good deal older than his father took his and a great deal older than did his grandfather. The data lead to the conclusion that the in- crease in age has been much exaggerated. It exists only for certain while others show a decrease. mal age at graduation is about 22% years, If entrance Into professional life is later than formerly the reasons must be sought clsewhere than in the coliege. It is, how- ever, no longer possible, as it once was, for a lad to take his degree at i6 years of age. But the young man now leaves college with very much higher attain- ments than his father or grandfather pos- sessed. S i o New Value for Solar Parallax.

The arbitration committee of the Mas- ter Car Builders' Association, sitting in a case at its April meeting which In- volved much conflicting testimony, ren- dered a decision based on grounds entire- ly outside of the evidence presented by either side. From the evidence presented by the Galveston, Harrisburg and San Antonio it would seem that on June 27, 1902, a train on its line near Bernard, Tex., was blown from the track by a cy- %lone and twenty-two cars damaged. Among these were the three Erle box | carg, one of which was totally destroved. Amdavits of members of the wrecking crew stated that some of the cars were found jn a cornfield 200 yards from the | track, and that the track Wwas intact and in good shape after the accident. On July 8 ‘the Galveston, Harrisburg and | San Antonio asked authority to repair | the two damaged cars at the FErie's ex- pense, which was refused. The blll of the | i was returned unpaid by the Galveston. Harrisburg and San Antonio, as it clalmed that the car was destroyed through no fault whatever on its part, but the two damaged cars were subse- aquently repaired and no bill rendered. The Erie claimed that the Weather Bu- reau_ report for June 27 showed nothing in tfle weather conditions that would cause such damage and that the accident must have been from some other cause. The bill for the_destroyed car was pre- | sented to the arbitration committee with the evidence on both sides, and its decis- jon was that the bill of tha Erie should be-pald. It was made on the grounds that the preface to the rules of Inter- change provides that railroad companles handling cars are responsible for damage done to any car by unfair usage, derail- ment or accldent, and that damage caused by a washout, fire or tarnado is covered by this provision. D g Secretary Shaw’s Anecdotes. During his long career as a lawyer Sec- retary Shaw gathered a large collection of incldents, grave and gay. One of his stories is of a young lawyer who was op- posed to a veteran of the bar in an lowa “court.

Nine years ago Dav.l Yetter of Oakwood was assailed with rheumatism of a form that attacked the joints. Progressive ossification marked the case, the entire body being stiffened with the disease. The victim was at length unable to masticate food and relled on liquid nourishment. Then the jaws stiffened so that he could no longer open his mouth. A front tooth was extracted and through the opening thus provided was given the nourishment that added longer lease of life that, even under such conditions, was preferable to death.

The winter had been unusually severe and the lake from which the ice company gathered its crop was frozen to a much greater depth than usual. “T suppose, colonel,” remarked a citizen to the president of the company one cold morning, “that you won't charge us so much for our ice next summer as you did last.
