138 Haven, where the Fire Department is demoralized bv politics—the Fire De- partment, whose welfare is of more in- terest to each one of us than all the for- eign colonies which we can gather in; other political impossibilities, like assur- ing suffrage to the negro, or establish- ing sound money. Americans are re- stricted by the laws of human nature, like anyone else. Professor Sumner closed’ with an analysis of the purposes of the founders of our government, the conditions which they considered necessary for its existence, their hopes and their ideals, and asked if we were ready to throw away all that had been realized and to make further reaiization of these hopes impossible by deliberately choosing, not the way of the American Republic, but the way of imperialistic Spain. ——_- +4 —_—_ PROM PLANS.

As the WEEKLY goes to press it has been learned that Cornell under date of Dec 8, 18098, declined the warm in- vitation of Harvard to come into her race with Yale at New London on June 29. The conference between the repre- sentatives of Yale and Harvard held in Boston on Monday, Jan. 16, was to de- cide upon a plan of procedure, and resulted in a letter being sent to Cor- nell, signed by Captain Higginson of Harvard, in which, though regret at Cornell’s decision was expressed, a firm stand was taken for New London. The correspondence, coming so late, cannot be printed till the next issue. —. FOR CARRIAGES For the Prom Address: W. A. KIRK, Room 1, - 1002 CHAPEL STREET. Telephone 1328-3.
