DENSIE BOAKUXAX, 56 Ames' Building. Young Woman Who Hired Outfit, While a Guest at a Prominent Hotel, la Yet to Be Found A spider Stanhope and bay mare, believed to be missing from a Back Bay stable, was located todey at Revere Beach, and a man has been sent from Boston to Identify the outfit. There Is an unusual story connected with the disappearance of the equipage, and the police have been much Interested in the Equipped with excellent manners and a comely appearance, a young woman appeared In Boston some days ago and within a very short time made herself very much sought after, especially by the proprietors of a livery stable. The young woman went to tho Hotel Essex and her brown eyes had such an effect upon the clerk that he gave her one of the beet rooms in the house. The next day she decided that a ride through famous park system would be the proper thing to do, so she asked the hotel carriage agent to provide her with an equipage suitable for the use of -a young woman of fashion.

Impressed with her grand style, the agent telephoned to a prominent livery stable, which sent a Stanhope spider buggy, drawn by a fine bay horse with a silver-mounted harness, as fine a turnoul.as one could ask for. In this carriage the young woman drove away and that Is the last the livery stable people heard of the horse and wagon. Early the following morning the aristocratic young woman returned to the hotel, and almost Immediately the owners of the equipage sent a man to ask about their property. Ho was received politely and told that papa" had taken It to the stable. Being told that papa" had not shown up she became alarmed for hie safety, and sent for an officer of Station 4 to whom she repeated the story of her papas" disappearance.

She eeld that he was registered and the officer went down to verify the statement, which he was unable to do. When, however, he returned to the room in which he had Just Interviewed the daughter of the missing papa," he found that she, with the assistance of a chain bermald, had left the hotel by a back door. Later the keys to her room were found In front of another hotel. It Is thought that this may be the same person who, it Is alleged, has swindled several wealthy men at Newport and at Nar-ragansett Pier and also has worked a confidence game" at another Boston hotel.

WEI.T.K8L1T OOLLBOB Bnal la History Miss Students entering Wellesley in September this year, and thereafter, will be expected to be prepared according to the new requirement In history that la. In a course comprising three recitations a week for the school year, or an equivalent amount of time.

Any one of the following subjects may be presented; history of Greece to the death of Alexander, history of Borne; the republic and empire, to the death of Commodus, history of England; history of the United States, with the elements ok civil government. A single subject Is required In the expectation that the student will be led to do careful. Intelligent and appreciative work In a limited field. Sug-1 gestlons as to the best methods are Incorporated In the report of the committee of seven appointed by the American Historical Association: The Study of His tory In the Schools," and the publications of the New England History Teachers Association. It Is suggested by the college history department that the working equipment for this preparation should comprise an accurate text-book, a reference library, maps, and photographs of 1 historic men and places, works of art.

In relation to the special subject chosen. As to methods of work, while It Is recognized that every good teacher will have his own methods, special emphasis Is felt desirable on the following factors in mental training: Lectures by the instructor; Instruc tion In methods of note-taking, not only for lectures, but for class discussions and reference reading; recitations that test knowledge of facts and power of clear, orderly statement; discussion of mooted questions and comparison of hlstorleil characters and events; presentation by the students of special topics prepared outside the class-room; training In the preparation of outlines and analyses; practice In map drawing showing territorial changes, conquests. migrations, social development and. finally, frequent written tests 'which call for the exercise of Judgment as well as memory. Due notice has been given to the preparatory schools of this new history requirement.

The recently published book by Miss Hazard, president of Wellesley, on Ideas In the Education of Women," is already having a wide circulation, as It warmly deserves for the timeliness and significance of Its message. Miss Hazard touches first upon the types of the Ideal which men have sought in womanhood, from the days of the old mythology down to and sines the coming of Christianity. At this point Miss Hazard makes brief Inquiry into some of the fundamental questions as an aid to determining what sort of training one really would desire as the Ideal thing, with this conclusion: There are three ways in which women are preeminent they are the binders together of society; they are the beautlfiers of life, and they are the preservers of morals. That Is, women must stand for conservatism, for grace, for purity, and In these three directions they must have special training. 1 Conservatism Is simply the body of unwritten law which one generation hands down to another, and of which women giro the natural inheritors.

That women may be the beautlfiers of life, they must be taught to appreciate form, proportion, and grace; but beyond the forms of art. there must still be the training of the mind. Nothing really Inspires, nothing really creates enthusiasm, but the perception of an ultimate Ideal, whether It be In art. or music, or In any other of the realms of spiritual thought Quoting the ancient saying, Varlum et mutablle. semper femlna.

Miss Hazard asks when women will learn to take this not as a reproach, put as a simple statement of a physiological fact, and Irani to work, within the limitations of the law. These tides of emotion, of openness to Impressions of all sorts, should become elements of strength rather than weakners. Each woman must learn for herself h-w to discount her own Judgment, the patience to wait for the second thought- the time to trust Instinctive perception. In regard to the mooted question of the likeness or unllkeness of mans and womans mei.tallty, position Is wlse'y taken In this book of Ideals: It Is im possible to say. This is for man or Ths is for woman, for the gifts of nature are distributed equally to man and womai, Training In obedience.

In perception, in worship. In the consent of the mind to the reign of law, in the appreciation of differences In value, and In reverence a-d love these are the fundamentals lying at the root of all progress, of all education." YALE UNIVERSITY Subscription for the Bl-centennlal Buildings Coming In Slowly and President lladley 'IVlll Not Any Kew Contracts Until Sufficient lTnnds Are Scoured President Arthur T. Hadley of Yale has announced the policy of laying no plans whatever for bi-centennial buildings beyond those for which funds to pay have been subscribed. It Is an open secret that the subscriptions to the Yale hl-centennlal fund fell far short of the amount asked for and expected. The amount In sight at this time, practically a year before the bi-cen-tennfal.

Is so fr below the figure needed to assure the sum needed for the construction of the bi-centennial buildings that President lladley has determined to give no more Contracts for the erection of any more buildings for the present. At present work is In progress for only the new dining-hall of the planned bl-centennlal structures. The contracts for the auditorium and the memorial vestibule, and for the new administration building will be withheld for the present. President Hadley today emphatically denied that there was any plan on foot to awiN these contracts In October. The Yale corporation Is balked In Its attempt to secure possession of the entire site desired for the new administration building by the price asked for one small building lot on which part of the building will stand.

The family In possession decline to sell a lot with a 100-foot front for less than 825.000. The Yale authorities have offered 818,000, but decline to give more. Rapid progress Is being made on the construction of the new buildings. The foundation of the new dining-hall Is about half completed. The historic buildings which stood on the site of the new dormitory, Fayerweather Hall, have been demolished and ground has been broken for the foundation of the new dormitory.

The new law school building, which has been In process of construction for more than a year. Is now ready for occupancy. It stands Elm street, just east of the Divinity School, and Is a handsome four-story structure of Indiana stone front and brick body. Just above the new dining-hall on Grove street stands the new chapter house of the Book and Snake Society of the Sheffield Scientific School. It lr of white Vermont marble, and Is forty by seventy feet in dimensions.

The building Is constructed on the sombre, mausoleum type of architecture which characterises most of the Yale chapter houses. Since the Book and Snake Society was formed, its combined chapter house and dormitory has been the Cloister, one of the most picturesque buildings on the Yale campus. Professor Henry 8. Graves, head of the new department of forestry at Yale, has Just arrived here, and Is completing plans to organise that department of the university at the beginning of the fall term. Professor Graves has begun preparations for opening the new forestry courses In September.

with the residence and grounds of the late Professor O. C. Marsh on Prospect Hill as the headquarters of the department. Records of the entering class In the academic and scientific departments of Yalo are now nearly complete. It Is practically certain that the class of 1991 In the academic department will number from 345 to 355.

Ames Delivered the Fourth Lecture In the Bummer Course at the Old South Meeting House The fourth lecture of the summer course at the Old South Meeting-House, under the provisions of the Mary Ilemenway trust, was given this afternoon by Rev. Charles G. Ames. D. of this city, the subject being Lincoln and the Struggle with Slavery.

Mr. Ames found Americas most significant emblem, not In the flog, the eagle, nor the head of Liberty, but In the device on that side of the great seal of the republic which is never used and seldom seen. It represents an uncompleted pyramid, with the inscription, Norus Ssectorum Ordo A New Order of Ages." Here was to be realized, for the first time on a continental scale, the sublime Idea of Impartial liberty and Impartial law, under the rule of the people. Such was the standard set up. But the new order of ages required a new order of men, and the early settlers and their successors have shared the limitations of wisdom and virtue which continually mar the products of evolution.

Yet a most hopeful sign appears In the vigorous vitality which has enabled the still young republic to throw off, even through the convulsions of civil war, the laiieriied disease of slavery. Ample quotations were given from Washington, Jefferson, Adams. Madison, Hamilton, Livingston, Jay and his as-, soclates of the Supreme Court, Patrick Henry, Franklin and other leading men South and North, showing that abolition was their ardent desire. Yet when they came to the framing of the Federal constitution, It appeared that the partisans of slavery, though they had generally been silent, were stubbornly determined to hold fast their human property and to claim permanent guarantees for the institution. The concessions bore their natural fruit.

They gave to the slaveholding Interest a national status and a vast political advantage; they, built up In the republic an arrogant and aggressive anti-republican power. For every Inch yielded th-y claimed an ell, and as time went on the acquired control of the Federal Government and used Its powers to fortify and extend their system Into new territory and to override the. free States. They expected to breakdown the bulwarks of freedom and to secure by Judicial decision the right to take slaves Into every part of the Union. When the Issue became clear the North awoke; its drugged conscience resumed Its functions, the voice of the fathers was heard again.

The South might have all the slavery It wanted, but it should not kidnap and enslave the Negroes of her free States: It should not drag back runaways wlthou giving them a hearing; it shou'd not convert the territories Into slave lands; It should not make Northern men responsible for the Institution anywhere; it should not put padlocks on free lips. The lecturer passed rapidly over the events which led to the Irrepressible conflict, and then sketched In outline the falling away of the nation from its early Ideal and the rise of the monstrous slave power. In order to measure the magnitude of Lincoln's task and the greatness of his services. Of Lincoln Dr. Ames sMd: For that task he was prepared by the humble conditions of his enriy life, by Ms training in the school of self-reliance, by his sympathy with struggling humanity because he had shared Its struggle, by the the habitual application of Ms mind and hands to dealing with difficulties, and by his seclusion from the social influences which sophisticate the moral and political sense.

A man of convictions, simple, calm, strong, courageous, shrewd, magnanimous, he claimed to have no political principles which were not derived from the great Declaration; and It was fortunate for him and for the nation that the convention which placed Mm In nomination for the presidency committed Itself on moral grounds against slavery as a wrong to humanity, and so secured the backing of the Northern conscience. Lincoln thus became the national representative and champion of the American principle. He saw the In equalities of men; he affirmed only the equality of their rights under law. Had he lived In Massachusetts Instead of Illinois, he might have shared Chancellor Livingstons confidence In the safety and necessity of Negro suffrage. In a personal conversation with the lecturer, Mr.

Lincoln said, On principle, I suppose myself as much opposed to slavery as the most radical Abolitionist; but I happen to he a lawyer, and I do not find In the constitution any power by which the Federal Government can deal with slavery In the By that limitation, as by the terms of his oath, he felt himself solemnly bound when lie became President. But he had sworn to preserve, protect and defend the constitution as the supreme law of the land, even against the acts of States; and when It gradually became clear to him and to the loyal masses that slavery was the backbone of the rebellion, he no longer hesitated. Whatever protection the constitution gave to the institution had been forfeited by those who were fighting against the constitution. Acting as commander-in-7-chief of war, he issued the emancipation proclamation as a matter both of Justice and of military necessity, thus laying, as he hoped, the foundation for a lasting peace by removing the only serious cause of strife. The body of slavery was Indeed laid away In the bloody grave dug by Its own hands.

But the evil spirit survives In race hatred. In the passionate purpose to keep the Negro under the white mans foot. And all despotisms are of one breed; the claim any class or race to exercise dominion over another keeps the world In confusion and mankind In misery. Every step of true progress must be along tho path of Justice and brotherhood.
