J., conceived @ SC the idea of a novel ‘Sunday evening service; so he pre- pared his sermon —a short one—and RUE to | several hymns and ba HS scripture readings the day before on a number of cylinders, and he actually held the meeting, ‘‘as advertised.” The affair created quite a sensation at the time, quite a sensation indeed. Inside of a month the Rev. Mr. Dominie was preaching in a church out West,—preaching, mind you,—no more phonograph for him. Well, it simply proves the truths of saying, ‘‘ Everything in its proper place.” THE EDISON STANDARD PHONOGRAPH, $20 COMPLETE, ALL DEALERS SELL THEM, When you write for latest catalogue No, 24, ask also for our entertaining litile book of Phonograph short stories, ‘‘What Mr. Openeer.Heard.”’ NATIONAL PHONOGRAPH C0., 26th St. & Broadway, N, Y- | NONE GENUINE WITHOUT THIS TRADE MARK The Edison (@jj gif} Phonograph Reproduces only; but reproduces with wonderful clearness, . .

Tracy failed to notice the turn of the road owing to the darkness and walked straight ahead out onto the ice and over the Bay. After having pro- eressed a short distance the ice gave way under his weight and he fell into the water and was drowned. His absence was not noticed until the following morning, when investigations, immediately set on foot, developed the fact that his death must have occurred in the manner above described. The correctness of this reasoning was con- firmed when his. body was recovered from Saranac Lake a short distance from the point of the accident, on May 10, 1890. The funeral was held from his father’s residence in Plainfield, New Jersey, on Sunday, May 14, 1899, and was attended by a large number of his classmates The pall- bearers were: Dr. Frank O. Dorsey, ’93; Dr. Carl E. Sutphen, ’93; Noah H. Swayne, 2d, ’93; Frederic W. Yates, ’93: Augustus Wadsworth, and Dr. Francis Eppes Shine, who was a mem- ber of the staff of the New York Hos- pital during Tracy’s service there. In- terment was in the cemetery at Plain-- field, New Jersey. He was one of the most popular men in his Class and had a wide circle of friends, by whom his death will be greatly regretted. It has been stated in some of the daily papers that Tracy’s death was suicidal. I deem it proper to say that T had a letter from him postmarked, but a few hours before his death, in which was no indication of despondency or intent to end his life. I know that he was rapidly regaining his health, and was in good spirits. There was no possible motive for such an act, and moreover sticide is cowardly, and cowardice had no part in his character.

Last week it was thought that the personnel of the University Nine which will meet Harvard and Princeton in championship games within the next few weeks had been definitely settled as — follows: C. E. Sullivan, 1900, catcher; €.. Pr Cook: 1007 S.: -and: -Fr.. Min C. Robertson, 1901, pitchers; L. D. Wad- dell, 1901 S., first base; Captain C. A. H. deSaulles, ’99S., second base; E. S. Bronson, 1900, third base; S. B. Camp, 1900, short stop; F. L. Quinby, 1901 S., left field; J. W. Wear, ’99, cen- ter-field; H. B. Wallace, ’o9, right field. In Friday’s practice, however, Bronson injured his arm, and since that time Quinby has been playing at third, while E. M. Eddy, ’00S. of last year’s nine, who has recently joined the squad, has taken Quinby’s place in left field. The uncertainty as to when Bronson will be able to resume work, and the untried work of the new combination, have served to render more doubtful than ever, the final make-up of the Nine. <> <>» a Freshman Basebali Captain. At a meeting of the Freshman base- ball team on Friday afternoon Ray- mond Gano Guernsey of Poughkeepsie, .N. Y., was elected permanent captain of the Nine. Mr. Guernsey is twenty years old and prepared at Exeter, where he played on the team for two years. He was also captain of the Poughkeep- sie High School team. He is playing left field for the Freshmen and was appointed temporary captain some time ago. <> +> a ae College Baseball Games, The following College baseball games were played last week: Wednesday, May 17—Holy Cross 5, Williams 0; Dartmouth 28, Bowdoin 9; Harvard 4, Tufts 10; Princeton 3, Brown 6; U. of P. 14, Georgetown 11.

NSURANCE is as much a - part of the serious busi- ness of life as any invest- ment or enterprise. It must be studied, and the decision for or against a certain policy must be given on the facts, if it is to be rightly given. Leave it alone until an agent finds you, and you get into hot water. You suspect that he is giving you at best only half truths, and you don’t know how to test him. If you have thought out the subject, you will get all an agent really knows, but he will not get you un- less he has just the best thing for you. The more intelligently , you study our policies, the better we like it. AGES GFCAGEAGSAGS WSASSS PHOENIX MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE CO. HARTFORD, CONN. J. B. BUNCE, President. JOHN M.
