Class Reunions and Other Entertain=
ments at the Club,
Almost thirty members of Ninety-
Seven were present at the first reunion
of the class in New York, which was
held in one of the private dining-rooms
of the Yale Club last Saturday evening.
As announced, the meeting was a very
informal one, refreshments were served,
and the evening was passed in the usual
Yale style, in singing, led by -T.
Miller, ’97. Before adjourning, it was
unanimously decided to hold four or
five more Ninety-Seven nights at the
Club during the Winter.
OTHER ENTERTAINMENTS.
Several other events connected with
the Club which will occur shortly are
as follows: On Saturday the members
of the: Class of Ninety-Two in New
York will hold a smoker, and the fol-
lowing Friday, December toth, will be
~Club Night.” It is hoped “to get a
large crowd at the house on this even-
ing, and to give’a literary flavor to the
early part of the evening. One of the
University Faculty will be asked down
from New Haven to read a paper or
deliver an address. On the tenth also
the officers of the University Alumni
Fund will hold a dinner at the Club.
ADDITIONS TO THE HOUSE.
During the past week a great step for-
ward has been made as regards the deco-

rations of the Club, through Messrs.
Charles Scribners’ Sons and Harper
Bros. Over one hundred more framed
original drawings have been loaned to
the Club by these firms, and these are
exactly in the line of decoration most
desired by the House Committee. This
is especially true of the drawings illus-
trating the articles on life at Harvard,
Yale and Princeton which appeared in
Scribners’ Magazine last Spring. The
complete set of these, which have until
now been at the Harvard Club, has
been transferred to the Yale Club, and
the pictures are now hung in the main
room downstairs, arranged in three
groups according to the respective col-
leges.
The Library Committee report some -
further contributions, and the shelves
in the reading-room are slowly but
surely filling up with Yale books and
memorabilia in response to the circular
sent out. Perhaps the most interesting
of the more recent gifts is a copy of the
ge and regulations of Yale College in
1800. :

Hack Prices will be Lower
Next Year.
Complaints have been heard on all
sides, of the exorbitant prices charged
by the hackmen for services at the time
of the Princeton game. With enough
carriages to supply the demand, it was
an imposition on the part of the livery-
men to charge twelve and fifteen dollars
for a round trip of three miles. Mr.
Murray, who filled the orders of most
of the college men, denounced the
action of those in his business. He
fixed the price with the liverymen at
eight dollars, which was a high but not
exorbitant price under the circum-
stances. At the last moment the charge
was raised to ten, then to twelve and
even fifteen dollars. The city officials,
on hearing the complaints, investigated
the case, and, although the injustice of
the prices was apparent, they found it
would be impossible to take - legal
action to prevent it in the future, as
the Yale Field is in Orange Township,
and hence the distance covered is not
entirely under the jurisdiction of the
city. Efforts will be made, however,
to prevent such an abuse arising next
year. 3
