HEAR BEN. FRANKLIN.
“A policy of Life Assurance is the cheapest and safest
mode of making a certain provision for one’s family. — It
is a strange anomaly that men should be careful to insure
their houses, their furniture, their ships, their merchandise,
and yet neglect to insure their lives—surely the most
important of all to their families, and far more subject to
loss.”
Over 3,000,000 policies are now
of The Prudential, which is a mighty argument as to the
popularity of its policy contracts.

INTERNATIONAL ATHLETICS.
English Challenge to Harward and
Yale Will Be Accepted.
Unless unforseen circumstances pre-
vent, a joint track team composed of
the members of the Yale and Harvard
teams, will cross the Atlantic, shortly
after the close of College, and meet a
similar team representing Oxford and
Cambridge in an international, inter-
university athletic contest, on English
soil, during the latter part of July.
This announcement, which was made
on Saturday of last week, came in the
nature of a great surprise in University
circles.
The official challenge which is to
come from the English universities has
not yet been received, but on its arrival,
which is expected daily, Yale and Har-
vard will send a letter of acceptance.
A cable message, received by Mr. C.
H:; Shernil, ~Yale°80, “last "week:
announcing that the challenge had been
sent, represents one of the final steps in
a series of negotiations which have.
extended through several months. Last
January, Captain T, R. Fisher, 2d, sug-
gested the plan to Captain Roche of
Harvard, who after consultation with
the Athletic Advisory Committee, as-
sured him of Harvard’s concurrence.
Mr. Sherrill, while on a business trip
to England in February, carried on
the necessary. negotiations with the
Oxford and Cambridge authorities, and |
it was arranged that the English uni-
versities should send a challenge to
Yale and Harvard.
Arrangements for the meet have been
partially completed and a program
agreed upon which will include the fol-.
lowing events: one hundred yard
dash, quarter-mile run, half-mile run,
mile run, three mile run, one
hundred and twenty yard hurdle race,
throwing the sixteen pound hammer,
running high jump and running broad
jump. The power to select the men
who will represent Yale and Harvard
will rest with the two Captains, and it
is probable that each University will be
represented by two men in each event.
The time and place of the contest. have
not been definitely settled.
