YALE CLUB REPORT,
Shows a Healthy Condition of the
Organization.
The annual meeting of the Yale Club
was held at the house in Madison
Square on Friday evening, April 28.
After the reading of the report for the
fiscal year ending March 31, resolutions
of regret at the death of the late Pro-
fessor O. C. Marsh were passed, fol-
lowed by a resolution of congratulations
to Mr. John Kane, a Yale graduate, ©
now Senator-elect from New Jersey.
President Thacher closed the meeting
with a few remarks on the good mem-
bers could do by keeping on the look-
out for interesting memorabilia for the
club house.
The report shows that there are now
914 members in the Club. The surplus
in the treasury April 1, 1809,. was
$12,465.24, a gain for the year of
$3,269.77.

Students Celebrate Dewey Day.
The students took hold of the Dewey
Day celebration on Monday in a char-
acteristic and original manner. Prep-
arations had been going on through-
out the day for an elaborate parade and
the rumor was current that both the.
Philippine heroes, “Admiral” Dewey
and ‘‘Gen.” Otis, would be presented
in the gathering. It was, therefore, no
surprise, when the procession started
from Osborn Hall, to-see ‘‘Admiral”
(H. M.) Dewey, in fhe seat of honor
in an ancient barouche at the head of
the line. ‘General’ (H. G.) Otis was
for some reason unable to be present.
To navigate the vehicle, which was gaily
decked with bunting, required two
teamsters, H. H. Tompkins and Mac-
Intosh Kellogg, the whole escorted by
a squad of revolver sharpshooters. Be-
hind the Admiral’s ship came the fea-
ture of the parade, a big New Haven
watering cart, hired, not stolen as some
intimated, on the high barrel of which
perched eight or ten Seniors, armed to
the teeth with revolvers big and little,
with which they kept up a fusilade to
keep off Philippino guerillas. After
the cart. came a number of loaded-
wagons and behind the groaning
wagons, came five hundred students of
the lower classes, doing the Omega
Lambda Chi step.
The parade was through the center of
the city, past President Dwight’s house
and to the Campus, where ‘“‘Admira]’”
Dewey made a speech, which was so
noisly applauded that the stenographer
was unable to get verbatim notes. The
celebration ended with a gigantic bon-
fire between Treasury and North.
Two of the judges for the Yale-Har-
vard debate on May 12th have been
chosen. They are Professor Bliss
Perry of Princeton and Professor Gar-
diner of Boston.

mirable lucidity. In general, a fact of
much importance, all of Professor
Lewis’ work, even to the smallest de-
tail of instruction, has been thorough
and scholarly. He is a hard worker
and in his- discharge of duty very
exacting of himself and conscientious.
His standard of class-room work is
high and he has a very general repu-
tation among the students for compara-
tively low marking. That in spite of
this he is so universally liked is not the
least of the tributes to his ability and
character.
Charlton Miner Lewis was born in
Brooklyn, N. Y., March 4, 1866. His
father, Charlton T. Lewis, a graduate
of Yale in the Class of Fifty-Three, is
a prominent lawyer of New York, and
a philologist. He is a descendant of
an old New England family.
Professor Lewis, while at college, won
the Hurlbut Scholarship in Freshman
year, took first premiums in English
Composition in Sophomore year, was a
member of the Chi Delta Theta and
Phi Beta Kappa, and was an editor of
the Literary Magazine. He was a mem-
ber of the Junior Society of Psi Upsilon
and the Senior Society of Skull and
Bones. Upon his graduation in 1886, he
spent a year in graduate study of His-
tory and Political Science at Yale, then
two years at the Columbia Law School, |
from which he received the degree of
LL.D. in 1880. He was at once ad-
mitted to the New York Bar, and, in
1890, became connected with the law
firm of Sullivan & Cromwell of New
York City, where he remained until
the Fall of 1894, at which time he was
called to an instructorship in the Uni-
Professional Schools.
