YALE ALUMNI WEEKLY THE SOUTHERN ELEVEN, Explanation Regarding Membership of Princeton Men. —— In the Southern trip of the College Eleven, captained by Mr. Sanford, the Weekly had the following in the I'st of players:— “Right Tackle Tyler, who played tackle on last year’s Princeton team, and the first substitute this season; Left Tackle Church, tackle on the Princeton eleven for ‘the last two years; Fullback, Tucker, a Princeton undergraduate, but not on the Prince- ‘ton eleven.”’ Quoting this, the Princetonian adds the following: ‘In regard to this statement it may be well to say that Tucker, who played in all the three games on this trip, is not a Princeton undergraduate and is in no way connected with the Univer- sity. Both Church and Tyler started on the trip with the intention of play- ing all the games, but after hearing of the opposition of the Faculty they left the organization at Nashville, where the first game was played. In justice to these men, it should be said that when they left New York, they were not aware of the Faculty’s attitude.” The facts printed in the WEEKLY were obtained from Mr. Sanford, through a personal interview. Mr. Sanford has been seen again by a WEEKLY reporter to whom he has said that Church and Tyler did not accompany the team far- ther than the first game, but that he in- cluded their names in the general make- up of his eleven, merely at their own re- quest, it being contrary to their wishes to have it generally known that they left a team in the lurch on which they had agreed to play. Mr. Sanford further states that Mr. Tucker was represented to him as a member of Princeton Uni- versity at the very outset and that he was allowed to remain in the belief. He regrets, however, that his misinfor- mation should have led to an erroneous report, reflecting in any way upon Princeton University. Indianapolis Convention. In the-recent monetary conference of delegates of Chambers of Com- merce at Indianapolis, Yale men took a prominent part. Evans Woollen, ’86, was permanent secretary of the con- vention and performed the duties of his office in such a way as to call forth great commendation. The most promi- nent speaker on the floor of the house was Congressman C. N. Fowler, ’76, from Elizabeth, N. J. Among other graduates present were: G: P, Sawyer, °72 and 8..N. Clement, ’82, from Buffalo; A. 'T. Had- ley, 46 .eahnd- Cy BH. Curtis, 885.,.-from New Haven; J. O. Perrin, ’79, from Lafayette, Indiana, and T. C. Wol- cott, ’91, from New York City. The outcome of the deliberations of the convention was a series of resolu- tions calling for the maintenance of the gold standard, the ultimate with- drawal of the government from the business of note issue, the separation of the functions of note issue from those of revenue and expenditure in the treasury department, during the time which must elapse before such withdrawal is complete and the ne- cessity of establishing a credit cur- rency—that is, the ‘introduction of some features like those of the Canadian system In the College Pulpit.

Nowhere are the relations between the two more cordial. The speaker deprecated the fact that President Dwight is not ac- corded the appreciation among alumni students that his high character and his large heart deserves. aS Se pathetic thing that he could go to Kurope for the Summer, return after. the first term and slip into the ad- ministrative chair without so much as an Official word of welcome. The presidents of American colleges are the noblest body of men on the continent. The speaker then dealt vigorously with the charge that Yale affords too much temptation morally. Yale was never cleaner morally, and the senti- ment never higher than to-day.’’ The reference to President Dwight, called out from Mr. Bridgeman a sug- - gestion of three times three for Presi- dent Dwight. It was given with a. splendid spirit. ThenZ. Bennett Phelps moved that a telegram to President Dwight of loyalty and support from the alumni of Northeastern Pennsyl- vania be sent. This was seconded by Mr. Darling and carried with a rush. The banyuet was on the whole one of the most enthusiastic ever held.

The University Catalogue for the academic year of 1896-97 shows that there are seven vacancies in the Facul- ty of the University, including four endowed professorships, ‘two unen- dowed professorships, and one instruic- ‘torship. The endowed chairs are, the Mun- son Professorship of Na'ttural Philoso- phy, and Astronomy, last held by the late Elias Loomis, who retire@ from it in 1889; Chittenden Professorship of Divinity and College Pastor, left va- cant by Rev. William M. Barbour, D. D., honorary ’77, in 1887; Buckingham Professor of New Testament Critie’sm and Interpretation, left vacant by Rev. George B. Stevens, Ph: ‘D.; Di DA 280 | T.

C. of New York City is planning to enter new quarters after the first of next May. The club. suitable | will probably lease some building instead of erecting a new one. The annual meeting of the club will be held next Saturday night, and the question of a new house will be tthe principal subject to be discussed. It is said that a committee, which has been looking around for a new loca- tion, will report in favor of leasing a private house located somewhere in the vicinity of Fifth avenue, below Forty-second street. There has been some talk about leasing the New York A. C.’s present home, but there is lit- tle chance for such a move, as the building is thought to be too large for the limited membership of the U. A. C. i Where Yale is Appreciated. (Springfield Republican.] If New Haven does not want Yale University any longer, Springfield is ready to make that institution an of- fer to come up and settle on the banks of the Connecticut. This city has long felt the need of a University of Yale’s age, prestige and size to round out the measure of her attractions. We want Yale, although, of course, there is little prospect that Yale will come to us right away. Still, the attempt of the New Haven assessors to raise the tax list of the University property to nearly $400,000 a year, and the dis- cussion in the press which has re- sulted from it, emboldens us to give expression to our readiness as a city to give Yale a home where 'the taxes would not bother her. Our advantages as an athletic center, we might add, are unrivaled. Look at Hampden park. To be sure, Massachusetts is well supplied with colleges, but there is room for another of the first class. We would welcome. Eli. WILLIAM FRANELIN & CO. Importing Tailors 40 Center St., New Haven, Conn. NY a= a NC ip > la ag New York. 403 Fifth Avenue.

It forms on asbestos while being electrically treated in a solution. This asbestos is put up in a glass vial. When the cork of the vial is removed and the air comes in contact with the asbestos, it emits from the inhaler a soothing pee es substance, which will penetrate any part of the body. When inhaled through the nose or mouth, it penetrates every nook and crevice of the mucuous surfaces, kills the germ that causes the\disease, and gives the tissues a healthy condition, thus effecting a permanent cure. Itis unlike snuff, drugsor medicine. X-Ode penetrates parts that it would be impossible for drugs or medicines to do. Catarrh, Asthma, Hay Fever, Coughs, Head- ache, Bronchitis, LaGrippe, etc., yield to its influ- ence with marvelous rapidity. This inhaler lasts from one to three years. Trial size inhaler, 15 cents; large size inhaler, $z.00, All druggists or by mail. The X-ODE CO., 19 Union Square, New York City. PACH BROS., College = Photographers, 1024 Chapel St., New Haven.
