EDWARD E. GREGORY, ’97.
The death of Edward Eugene Greg-
ory, of the class of 1897, occurred at
his home in New York City. on Mon-
day, September 21, in the twenty-
fourth year of his age. He had come
down that morning from his father’s
country seat at Irvington on the Hud-
son to spend a few days in the City
and was expected to return on Wed-
nesday. As he did not appear at that
time, his father grew anxious and
went to New York on Thursday to
look him up. On reaching his hhouse
Mr. Gregory discovered. the body of
his son in the bath-room. Death had
been caused by inhaling gas. A doc-
tor was hastily summoned, but he
could only confirm the fact that life
had been extinct for three days. The
burial took place at Woodlawn Ceme-
tery, Friday morning, September 25.
The following letter on the death
of Mr. Gregory has been drawn up
by the committee appointed for that
purpose, and sent to the bereaved
family: |
The sad news of the death of our
classmate, EHdward Hugene Gregory,
was announced to the class at a meet-
ing this morning, and in their behalf
we desire to express the profound
sympathy which we all feel for his
bereaved family and friends. (His
death, occurring as it did, after three
years of companionship in college,
makes us the more deeply realize the
loss we have sustained. His quiet, un-
assuming manner, his good nature
anid above all his manly character had
endeared him to us all, and as an out-
ward token of the esteem and love jin
which his class held him it has de-
cided to wear a badge of mourning for
thirty days and to send this note of
sympathy to his parents anid imme-
diate family.
For the class, -

IRVING P. LEETE, 797. : ;
Irving Prentice Leete, of the class
of °97, died at his home on Leete’s Is-
land during the latter part of last Au-
gust. He left college shortly after
Kaster and did not return again un-
til in June and then only to take
home such of his belongings as he
had here. His death was caused by
quick consumption, which was. large-
ly aggravated by a severe cold. He
had been accustomed during the sum-
mer months to assist Mr. J. M. Hunt,
the proprietor of the “Pointe House”
of Guilford, Conn., in his office du-
ties, but this summer his younger
brother, who it was expected ‘would
enter Yale this fall, took his place
there. He roomed with Mr. Philip
W. Grece, °98 in 84 South Middle. Mr.
Leete was of a very reserved and
modest disposition, and his studious
habits won him a place in the esteem
of his instructors and fellow students.
At a meeting of the Senior Class
held last Friday morning in, Dwight
Hall, presided over by H. S. Coffin, the
following resolutions were passed up-
on Mr. Leete’s death:
Whereas, Almighty God has seen
fit to remove from our class one who
on account of his quiet manliness was
loved and respected by all who knew
him, and, .
- (Whereas, We feel the loss we have
all sustained in the death of our
friend, Irving Prentice Leete; there-
fore, be it
Resolved, That we offer to his be-
reaved family our sincere sympathy
and, ‘be it further
Resolved, That a copy of these res-
olutions ‘be sent to his family amd
that they be printed iin, the college
papers.

Several changes have taken place
this year in the freshman faculty. Mr.
T. W. Heermance has been appointed
instructor in Greek in place of Dr. J.
W. D. Ingersoll ‘who will teach fresh-
man Latin instead of Dr. Robinson,
and Mr. J. Westlund will teach Mathe-
matics in place of Mr. Keller.

After Mr. Bryan fairly began his
speech, he was allowed, as far as any-
one in the audience was concerned,
to continue at will and ad infinitum.
The speech was not stopped by stu-
dents or any others in the crowd, but
by the very lusty brass band of the
Naval Reserves which drew near at
this time. Mr. Bryan himelf gave ‘this
as his reason for stopping and there
was certainly no other reason. The
crowd was in excellent order at the
time. The only spirit of unfriendli-
ness shown at any time during Mr.
Bryan’s address was. in an occasional
concerted and long drawn out “Oh,”
falling into a groan, which woulda
sometimes follow a _ particularly
sweeping statement of the Speaker.
When under way the Democratic can-
didate undid his mistake of seeming
annoyed, took these little signs and
sounds good naturedly, and struck
back at the boys. In an interview on.
the affair afterwards, he is quoted as
referring to it as college boys’ fun, in
which there was no malice.
‘There was a very general feeling of
regret after the meeting was over,
that anything had been done which
would be taken as an act of discourt-
esy towards the speaker or those
whom he represented in politics.
While everyone knew that it was an
impulsive bit of horseplay and. guying,
that the spirit of mischief-making
had simply gotten the better of the
sense of propriety, that only a very,
very small faction of the students
were in any way concerned, and ‘that
there was absolutely no malice in it,
it was recognized at once that the
breach of etiquette on the part of the
few would at once be laid at the door
of the University and all Yale would
be held responsible for the affair. It
was not, however, dreamed of that
such fiction concerning it could be
spread abroad. The exploiting of the
act was so overdone and the false-
hoods circulated were so deliberate
and momumental that regret for the
affair is given way to ‘wonder and.
contempt at the way in which it had
been treated.

To Form a Sound Money Club.
Immediately after the Freshman
football elections last Monday even-
ing a mass meeting of all men in the
Academic and Scientific departments
interested in the formation of a Sound
Money club was held in Alumni Hall,
The large room.on the ground floor
was crowded when the meeting way
called tto order and a plan of pre
liminary organization ‘was proposed
and approved by acclamation. G. P,
Day, ’97, presided and stated the ob-
ject of the meeting. It was then
voted that a @ommilttee of seven be
appointed from the two departments,
present to confer with similar comp |
mittees to be elected from’ ‘the jgradu-
ate schools of the University
The following committee was’ then an-:
nounced: from the Academic depart-
ment—iL. M. Bass, 97; G. C. Brooke,\
97: BH. Hill, Jr., 97; L. Hinkey, ’9%)
From the Scientific department—J. D.

Larger Freshman Classes. |

Class and 175 in the Freshman Class of

Grant, “97 Siy
This is a gain of 21 in the Academi
\
Department, and of 28 in the Scientific
School. The increase over the figures
of last year in the Scientific School,
where the numbers were kept downi n
1895 by an increased standard, was not
unexpected, but the material gain in
the Academic Department, under all the
circumstances of this year, was hardly
looked for. EY
