DESIRABLE COLLEGE HONORS
Commenting on the winning o'
a scholarship at Yale by John A
Yan Goss, aid at Princeton by
Claude R Fountain, both of the
University of Oregon, the Ore-
gonian hae caustic comment in a
leading editorial on the prefera­
bility ot an education that briDg*
such reeulls tn comparison with
the tendency of the times to giv-
athletics and oratory undue prom­
inence in college work and tn th«
bestowal of honors. The gist of the
editorial lies in the concluding
paragraph, which we quote:
We like this news, therefore
that young men of Oregon hav>
achieved such a record in study ae
to be found worthy of admission to
sc bol ar »hips in Yale and Columbia,
against the very sever-"«I comjietitioi
the country oould afford, In our
bumble opinion it t>ea'e rowing,
boxing, football and ilvuleni
oratory.

lire the smiling youngster, she cried:

Hopkins smiled.
'All mine." Said he, “by virtue of adop-

Then Miss Katherine took the youag-

There was a bridal In the palace, the

cewt -a girl -0 ‘be bud of life, the aprmg-
tinie of existence, a beautiful creature,
radiant In »miles, exquisitely gracefuF-
and a powerful alliance had been form- d
worthy of a priacesa ao lovely.
Her dre«a »as richly decoratwl with
jewels, the long silk veil fell to her feet ;
•nd a crown of gold »urtnou»ted by a
chaplet of orangs flowers rested on her
brow. At the altar stood the priest, sur­
rounded by the emperor and empress, the
embassador and court, welting with ea­
gerness the coming of the bride.
"Ah. my daughter,” said the emperor
as the princess approached, "thou hast
delayed coming.’” And he led her for-
The embassador slowly knelt down,
averting hls head from the guests, and
the priaevsa followed hls example, seem­
ingly unconscious of the presence of the
court. Suddenly her eyes met those of
the embas»ador fixed upon her, and, turn­
ing deadly pale, she made a sign for the
c»rwmoay to comment». The ring was
placed upoa her finger and her small
white hand rested for one moment in tbe
embassador’s, the bleeslng was pro­
nounced. the heads of both were meekly
bent. aid. glaacing timidly at the stid
kneeling bridegroom, the princess rose
and knelt to her father. He raised her
in hl» arms and, turning to the empre»»,
presented to the court the youthful queen
of Germany.
“God hires her! May she be happy!
was the thrilling exclamation ae the bri­
dal party left the salon, followed by th«
younger sister» of tb» bride and tbe
graceful, mirth loving courtiers.
"What! In tears?” said the empres»
kindly, when her daughter, overpowered
by her concealed emotion, »obbed vio­
lently on her mother’» bosom. “This is
not right, my child. Trust me, you »hall
hear of u» often, and, though absent, we
»hall never forget you. Let me dry away
your tears, for, hark. I hear sound».
Footsteps are approaching.”
“I trust your majesty will pardon me,"
said the embassador, hurriedly retreat­
ing on beholding the queen of Germany
alone, for the empress had retired. "I
wa» not aware your majesty was here.
Thi, pavilion is g -nerallv deserted.”
"So it would be now, but I have come
hither to see the sun set for the last time
in mine own land anl to listen to the
sound of my favorite band playing be­
neath the»« windows. You cannot blame
me."
"My liege lady. I would not dare to
breathe a word of disrespect against one
•o good and beautiful. Relieve me. I
would die to save you one moment's
agony.”
"Nay: is life so utterly valueless?”
“Utterly, for its only charm is lost."
"Impossible.” said the queen softly.
“You have much to live for—fame,
wealth and doubtless love are yours. Say
there Is another for whom you would dl»
save me."
“Nay. but one—forgive me. liege lady.
b"t one. She cannot be mine. She is
lost forever to me.”
"1 PH.» you.” salt! the queen, tear»
rushing to her eyes. "Is she wedded—
this false one? Is she wedded?"
"Yes, oh. yes. but she was not false. I
did not dare to tell my love. I knelt and
prayed for strength to wish her happi-
ness. I hare asked it for her, but she
knows it not."
“Were your situations in life equal?”
again said the queen.
“No,” he answered: “Rhe was far above
me—too good, too beautiful for me."
“Ah. had she not been wedded I could
have given you rank, wealth equal to
hers and bestowed her on you. Should
you have been happy?”
“Lady, she did not—could not love me.
Judge my feelings when unrepiningly she
gave her hand to another. Lady, you do
not know my misery."
"How canst thou tell that?” said the
queen, her cheeks turning lividly white
at the warmth with which he spoke. "If
youth was exempt from trials, how could
we feel for others’ sorrows? If I hsd
none of my own. I could not this night
woop with you.”
"Trials. la<ly?" said the embassador.
“Yes. bitter trials, very bitter; but it
Is not meet thus to explain the secret» of
my heart. I.et me bid you be happy and,
forever, farewell."
“Forever farewell! Why. dearest lady,
why? Say in aught I have offended you.
Forgive me, I implore. I’art not In an­
ger with me; turn anl look kindly on me
■gain.” And the kneeling embassador
caught the bottom of her robe. “Believe
me. I had not dared to toll yon of my
lore, but when you spoke so kindly to me
and yon told me of wealth and fame
what was worth living for when I was
losing yon?"
“Oh. my God. hare mercy! He returns
my lore! Protect me. pitv me. wonk,
sinful that I am! 1 whose heart Is his—
how c»n I meet his sorer, icn?” Saying
which, the queen fell prostrate to the
earth, supported by the embassador.
“I.csre me. leave." she said when she
opened her eye«. "Leave me alone now.
but. oh. do not brea’he to s single soul

"Nover, never. It would be an lnsnlt

cannot bear. Keep this as a memorial

looked maddeningly pretty as she'sat In

No. she would not forgive him for t
long time; it would not do. The circum­
stances were too aggravated. He »-.-¡d
be coming back expecting her to forgits
everything. Some girls might he so .¡n,
but he would find she was made of
ferent »tuff.
And all the time she knew that «be
dared not let her anger cool, for a horrid,
absorbing pain would fll her heart it
once and a wretched feeling of loneliae««
and depression, and she hated to be un­
happy.
She paddled on and on until the other
boats were all left behind. She was very
tired, but she would not stop. Her mind
was made up on one point—she would
frighten Bob Jamieson Into an apprecia­
tion of her worth.
It was almost twilight when she turned
I to go home. Th« river seemed to her to
have suddenly become louely and depress­
ing, the sun had gone down and a chill
wind had sprung up. Dolly paddled fast
and splashed the water over her pretty
frock and grew cross and miserable. She
had quite expected Rob would have fid-
lowed her to “make it up:” she had de­
cided how long she would keep him io
suspense and how at last to forgive him.
A clock in the distance struck 7. Dolly
paddled faster and faster, though she
was so tired she hardly knew how to p
on. She looked anxiously along, when
swiftly around the bend she had jort
| cleared shot another boat close in her
I wake. It camo so swiftly it was almost
on her before the sound of the oars made
her glance up. It came so close that her
cry to “Look ahead!" came too late.
Rhe screamed with alarm and missed
her stroke. The man fn the other bon
looked around, with annoyance written
on every feature, and then before be
could back water the impetus of his last
stroke brought the nose of his boat with
i a crash into the stern of her canoe, which
filled and sank instantly.
“Rob! Rob! Rob! Help!" But be­
fore the cry was past her lips Dolly had
gone tinder.
"Great Scott! It’s Dolly!"
In a second Rob had sprung Into ths
water after her. A stupefied face rose
above the surface and two hands Strug-
I gling wildly to clutch something. Then
• she sank again.
In desperation Bob
I made a wiki plunge at the spot where
I she had gone down, and this time caught
n bit of her sleeve. It was barely enough
I to support her by: but. having got a hob!,
he made the most of it and managed to
keep her up until he coulil grasp her
firmly. Then by degrees hp drew her to
the bank and in time managed to lift b--r
into his boat, which, fortunately, ha I
drifted to the bank. She was . -nscioui
again by that time, and he lai 1 ber In
the boat and wrnppe«! his coat a!■ mt bet.
She was not really hurt; only ov-rcom«
with the shock aud weariness. But ’he
looked a very piteous and forlorn littls
creature as she lay shivering in the bow
while Rob pulled as quickly ns he coal!
to the boathouse. In spite, though, of
her plight, her spoiled clothes an I general
discomfort, she did not feel as depressed
as she had been bef.-re th» I
did the world seem so utterly devoid of
happiness.
“Rob,” she said after silently witch­
ing him for some moments "Boh.
were von up the river so late?'
“Why were you?” answered Boh. od
without embnrrassment.
"M ill you tell me if I tell you?

he said, hifl col
“Weil. I wa« angry with yon, anl I
wanted to—frighten you.”
