make up of the various members of
the bndgje. The detlo tiou bf the
bridge under a moving train load
Was determined by fastening a level
tod to the bridge an 1 reading #n
this from a level which was act on
the bank. The bridge proper which
is 3*5 feet long and supported only
at each end, deflected under a mov
ing train load only a lout i inches.
This is conceded to be the best civil
engineering structure in the state
and (s one of the best in theUnite<!
Stales. The boys all feel that they
learned many valuable things from
aukiac’s trip.
There was a sense of pleasure in
the tiip also which will make it re
membered by each member of the
dass. The mile and a half tramp
through the open field in the midst
of the fragrance of newly blown
spring blossoms was extremely en-
hilirating; arid when the magnifi

A LIBERAL EDUCATION.
■■■■■■■■■ j
That man, I think, has a liberal
education whose body has f>eea so
trained in youth that it is the ready
servant of his will, and does with

We s w a thing
Of gc emsh hue.
And I bought it was
A lawn of graa)*'.
But when to it
We ctysL-r drew
We ft und it was
The f eshman class.
“Here, ta te this tiBe, r cried the
c-showman "The leopard has
all ease all that, as a meebanicism it
is capable of, whose intellect is a
clear, ^old, logic engine, with all its
parts of equal strength and in
'•mootk running order, ready, like
a steam engine, to be tamed to any
kind of work and to spin the gos
samers as well as forge the anchors
of the mind; whose n. nd is stored
arith the knowledge of the great
fundamental truths of nature and
the laws of her operations; one who,
no stunted ascetic, is full of life and
fire, but whose passions have been
trained to come to heel by a vigor
ous will, the servant of a tender
conscience, one who has learned
to love all beauty, whether of na
ture or art, to hate all vileness, and
to esteem others as himself.

Some years ago the selectmen
the town of Hanover, N. H,, d
cided, in their wisdom, to collect
poll-tax from every Dartmouth
stndent of legal age, says the Bos
ton Herald. The boys said noth-
to this, bat quietly deckled that
they paid taxes they would also
vote. So they turned out in full
force at the annua! meeting having
strength enough to secure control,
in less than five minutes they had
elected students to the positions ol
Moderator and Clerk. Thirty min
utes from the time the meeting was. ^
called to order, the town of Han-|j
over had gone on record as having
voted to build a school house 500
feet long, 10 feel high and two feet
wide, and to bqild a plank walk
from Reed Hall, in Hanover, to
Lebanon, in which town was a fe
male seminary. Suffice it to sa^|
the tax collector did not trouble
Dartmouth students for many years
after that.—Ex.
