for record here, concerning which you
have definite record. This will make

who are in the way of getting, more or
less often, Yale news and Yale per-
sonals.

Transcript of January 20, answering the

tacked him during a business trip to
Boston. The last reports from him
favor the hope of complete recovery.
70 S.—J. Herbert Grant has been ap-
pointed Commissioner of Public Works
of Rochester, N. J.
’70—The Brooklyn Eagle commenting
on the changes in the New York Even-
ing Post staff on the retirement of Mr.
Godkin and the appointment of Mr.
Horace White to the editorship, says:
“Mr. White’s right hand associate in
the office as a result of the change
which has occurred will be Mr. Edward
P. Clark of Brooklyn. A Yale man,
early the Managing Editor under Samuel
Bowles of the Springfield Republican, at
a time Editor of the Milwaukee Sen-
tinel, and then an editorial writer for
the Brooklyn Union, Mr. Clark went
to the Post in the middle of the eighties,
and has been one of its most industrious,
faithful and effective writers, advanc-
ing from position to position with the
years. He is in entire sympathy with
Mr. Horace White in all his ideas, and
the two men will continue to be assisted
by the able and brilliant crops of edi-
tors and correspondents that have dis-
tinguished that newspaper. Mr. Clark
is a master of a clear style, is one of the
most industrious and earnest thinkers
on the press and has the great gift of
persistence and of interesting reitera-
tion of views, which have made the Post,
with his pen, so powerful against vested
or intended wrongs. He simply de-
stroyed the chances of the Blair bill of
spoliation in the name of education by
a campaign of extraordinary power and
duration in which he led the thought of
the press of the country and by moral
and logical power commanded the opin-
ion of the Congress of the United States.
The general public does not know, what
all newspaper men are likely to know,
who are the principal workers on great
dailies. Mr. Clark’s place on that roll
is deservedly high.” :

‘70—The New York Tribune of re-
cent date said: “One of the most sig-
nificant features of the George Wash-
ington Memorial Association celebra-
tion the other day at Washington was
the presentation of a letter from Car-
dinal Gibbons by Professor Charles
Clinton Swisher of the Columbian Uni-
versity. Dr. Swisher is the ideal type
YALE Ati MIs
a ——eeeeees
of the nineteenth century college pro-
fessor, with a tact and breadth of view
which extensive travel and large experi-
ence with men and affairs have given
him. His speech of introduction was
the most appropriate and graceful of
the occasion. With a_ warrantable
stretch of imagination he alluded to the
most Reverend John Carroll as the Pre-
late of the Revolution, the life-long
friend of Washington, the trusted col-
league of Franklin, whose priestly robe
but ill concealed the diplomat -and states-
man. Dr. Swisher spoke eloquently of
the Puritan of New England, the Cath-
olic of Maryland, the French Huguenot
and the German Lutheran, whose an-
tagonisms had been harmonized by the
tolerance of Washington, and lauded
the farsighted statesmanship of the early
Catholic settlement of Maryland, whose
colonial assembly was the first political
body on this continent to establish com-
plete religious toleration.”

called from the Park Presbyterian

Meyer, an offer to be one of 1,000 citi-
zens who will pay $500 each to add 500
policemen to the force this year, so as
to provide people with better protection
from footpads and burglars. Mr.
Meyer supplemented this by offering to
be one of fifty citizens who will pay
$10 each to any person who kills a burg-
lar or highwayman in the act of com-
mitting robbery. Alderman Alling is
anxious to repudiate any relationship
to the dead-highwayman ordinance. He

“I sent to each of you during July
last a copy of our Sexennial Record.
As far as I can tell, it has been received
by all except Putney. If any of you
know his address please send it to me.
I send to each of you herewith the last
annual report of the Yale Alumni Fund
Association, which shows that this As-
sociation has paid over to the Treasurer
of the University for current expenses
$80,000 in the last eight years. A gen-
erous support of this Association will be
a most efficient aid to the Bi-centennial
Committee, between the members of
which and the Association there is the
closest harmony of purpose. The few
alumni who possess large wealth can be
more confidently depended upon, if the
great body of the alumni will contribute
in proportion to their means. The op-
portunity is now offered to continue to
the new administration of Yale the loyal
support which was given to the old.
We have 86 names’ on this honor list;
let us raise the number to 100 at once.
The names of contributors only, and not
the amount of their contributions, are
published. Send what you can to me;
anything from fifty cents up will be
thankfully received and promptly ac-
knowledged.”
