The Old Days at Harvard. In his “Story of Harvard" Arthur Stanwood Pier quotes :1 curious anec- dote by Professor Sidney Willard 0f the class of 1793. In spite of its age. the story has some very modern fea- tures. The students who boarded at com- mons, wrote Professor Willard, were obliged to go to the kitchen door with their bowls. or pitchers for their sun pers. where they received their modi- cum oi’ mill; or chocolate in the vessel that each held in one hand and their piece of bread in the other and repair- ed to their rooms to take their solitary repast. There were suspicions at times that the milk was diluted with a mix- ture of a very common. tasteless fluid. which led a s gracious Yankee student to put the matter to a test by asking the simple carrier boy why his mother did not mix the milk with warm water instead of cold. \ Fault of the Dictionary.

Hitherto their Work in this way has been mostly confined to the remoier uisuicts. But now it Seems that they are (:(miing down more. into tl u. open and establishing themselves il‘ the, settled SGcitha‘. At all events. this has happened as close to the city as St. Pierre de (.iharleshourg, where a farmer named Paradis, whose farm is traversed by a little stream from the mountains. crossing the Charleshourg. Stonehaui-Lake Beauport road, near the convent- and eventually running into the river des Meres. finds himself placed in a rather awakvard position. being threatened on the one hand by his neighbors with actions for dam' ages for allowing their lands to be flooded and ordered on the other by the local council to remove the cause of the trouble. which arises from the erection of no'less than three dam s on the stream in the rear of his farm by as_gnany colonies of beavers. How to comply with this order and get rid of these new settlers is the problem which he is trying to success- fully solve at present. ' He has repeat- edly. it appears. broken open the dams but during the next night, the beavers repair the breaches in their work. Now, in despair. he has applied to the Government for leave and aid to des- troy the animals b y shooting or trap- ping them, but thus far these resourc- es have also failed. All this, of course, is costing him time and money. \tht will be the next move is not yet known. VARNEY. Mr. Barney Hartford is visiting his parents here.
