OLD-TIME LOTTERIES.
f
MONEY FOR COLLEGES FORMER
LY RAISED IN THIS WAY.
Harvard College Owes Holworthjr and
Harvard Hall to Ihle Now Unlawful
Method of Procuring Ktsuda Public
Drawings In South America.
When ouo reads, as has frequently
been the case of late, of the arrest of
such nud such an Individual for the
maintaining and promoting of a lottery,
It Is hard to conceive that within the
present century Harvard College sought
and obtained permission from the Leg
islature to hold such an affair. Huch Is
the case, however, If we can rely on his
tory. In 1800, when the llnanccs of tho col
lege were In a decidedly critical state,
the corporation, having represented the
situation and duly petitioned, were ac
corded power by tho general court to
raise by means of n lottery the sum of
$30,000 for the erection of a new build
ing In the college yard. With the pro
ceeds of this lottery the college was en
abled to begin In 1811 the now building,
which was completed In 1818.
Tho entire cost of the building Hoi
worthy was $:U,000, so Unit tho bal
ance which remained of the $20,000 pro
duced by the lottery wns "applied to re
instate tho stock which tho college had
expended In erecting Stoughton Hall
and to other objects specified In the act
granting the lottery."
This now building, which to-day Is
probably tho one most sought after by
undergraduates at tho annual drawing
of rooms, and In which It is not al
lowed that frcshincu shall live, received
Its niimc In honor of Sir Matthew IIol
worthy, tho grentest benefactor of tho
college In respect to the amount of his
bounty, during the seventeenth century.
Ho wus a merchant of Hackney, In
the county of Middlesex, and was
knighted by Chnrles II. In IOCS. At his
death In 1078 a part of his will was
found to read as follows: "I give and
bequeath to the college or university In
or of Cambridge', In New England, the
sum of 1,000 (enormous at that time),
to be paid over to the governors and di
rectors thereof, to be disposed of by
them as they shall Judge best for pro
moting of learning and promulgation
of the gospel In those parts; the same
to be paid within two years after my
demise."
The above case of n lottery, however,
was not the llrst In the history of the
college. As early an lTOo one had been
authorized for the purpose of raising
funds for the erection of n new build
lug (now Harvard Hall) to replace Its
predecessor, destroyed by lire. Tho lire
which destroyed the former building
wns supposed to have originated uujler
tho henrth of the library, where a VI ro
hod been kept fdr the use of the general
court, which was sitting thero on Aic
count of the prevalence of smnlioxjln
Iloston. Tho now building, creeled
from tho proceeds of tho lottery, con
tained a "chapel, dining hall, library,
museum, philosophy chamber and an
npnrtment for the philosophical appar
atus." Such description sounds not un
like a catalogue of the machinery nud
cogs stored In a mans head.
Again the lottery wa s resorted to
(17IM) for the purpose of replenishing
the treasury of the college. On this
occasion tho capital prize of $10,000
was drawn by the college- Itself, the
lucky number being 18,5-17.
With such precedent as this certainly
It would not seem unnatural that
Judges, particularly If they had gradu
ated from Harvard and had happened
to have lived In Holworthy, should be
Inclined to denl gently with those ac
cused of breaking the lottery laws.
In ninny of the feverish South Amor
Icnn republics to-day tho lottery Is In
full swing, the proceeds presumably be
ing dovoted to tho support of hospitals
and to various other charities under tho
supervision of the government. Thero
the drawings nro held In public, usually
once a week, and are attended en mnsso
by the leisurely class of philosophers,
who usually constitute the majority of
tho citizens, nud who look upon tho
whole thing ns a form of recrcatlou as
good ns tho play.
Another point which might perhaps
be said to argue lu faor of tho lottery
Is that In 1SUS the stenmer Stillwater,
on which the Honduras lottery wns
drawn at sea, after Its expulsion from
Louisiana, served the government In
transporting troops from the United
States to Porto Klco. Itoston Globe.
IDEAL HERO HAS CHANGED.
The Commonplace Man of Fiction He
plucetl by the Mun or Action.
Ilobcst Grant lu an article on "He
roes ami Herolues" In the Woman's
Home Compaulon turns from the heroes
ami herolues of every-day life, nnd
says:
"Incidentally hero It Is Interesting to
note how quickly nud completely this
same world Is capable of changing Its
taste In respect to the heroes and hero
ines of fiction. Only ten years ago Mr.
Howells was gravely assuring us that
the sophlstocatcd public had dismissed
forever from favor nud faith tho en
gaging but Impossible beings of roman
tic literature. He Intimated that Du
mas wus n gross offender against nnt
urnltsm, ami hence truth. He even de
scribed the author of 'Vanity Fair' ns
'that caricaturist Thackeray,' and de
plored that Trollopo should have
yearned to Imitate him rather than bo
satisfied with tho workaday realities of
Mrs. lroudle.' Ho announced almost
convincingly thnt realism has come to
stay, nnd that any hero or heroine must
be fnlso to art unless to bo met with
lu one's dally walks. Wo were told
that fiction henceforth was to deal w'.th
real life.
"And what Is the case? But ton
years have elapsed since Howe'ls
spoke, yet ever since we have been un
dergoing a deluge of heroes' nnd hero
ines whose doughty deeds nnd exalted
sentiments ns men of arms and lovers
have no real counterparts In this pro
sale world. And lu their wake has
followed the romantic historical novel,
the novel of ndmlrably successful ad
venture on flood and Held performed by
pseudo ancestors of durs, whose flesh
nnd blood when confronted by Basil
March and his wife suggest tae com
parison of Hyperion to n Satyr. 'The
Gcntlomnn of France,' 'The Prisoner of
Zendn,' 'KIchard Carvel,' Manlce Meie
tilth, 'To .Jnve.and To Hold,' with their
editions mounting to the hundreds of
thousands, attest ."hat the world Is still
foolish enough to laugh with and to
cry over sheer puppets of the Imagina
tion. For the moment tho pendulum of
literary hero-worship Is far to iio pole
of thorough-going romance, nna the
heart of the realist Is sad within hlu
snve for the comfort which flows from
'David Hnrum' nnd 'Mr. Dooley,' tho?e
sane cnrnnl twins among an army of
fascinating, flawless cardboard crea
tions." The greatest number of races ever

Apricot Pits.
Not long ago the humble apricot pit
was a valueless product to be put out
of tho way as speedily us possible, lett
er, It commanded fire dollars a ton to
be used as fuel under the boilers where
steam power was generated. It burned
well and made a desirable fuel. Now,
the uses to which the erstwhile de
spised pit Is put ure many. The de
mand Is running ahead of the supply,
ami Its value Is continually Increasing.
It Is made to yield up Its contents of
marketable poison prusslc acid; It
gives a very desirable quality of "al
mond oil;" It enters largely luto the
manufacture of candy In places, Ger
many, for Instance; It Is even said to
be useful In the fabrication of baking"
powder. These aro some of the pit's
possibilities. There are others, and
there Is no longer any difficulty in Hud
Ing a market for them.
Somo men dou't do things been use
they are ncar-stghted, aud some be
