of Yale.

Ninety-Four 8. Reunion.
The reunion of Ninety-Four Sheff.
promises to be the largest of any class
yet returning. The committee have
assurance at this writing that eighty-one
men will be present to uphold the repu-
tation of the Class and hope that this
number will be considerably increased
before the procession starts. They es-
pecially urge every man who has not
advised them of his intention to be
present, to do so at once, that arrange-
ments may be made for them, and,
should there be any one who has not
received Sexennial notice, such fact
should be made known at once.
The business meeting takes place June
26, at 10 A. M., in North Sheffield Hall.
The Class will meet at Osborn Hall at
1.00 Pp. M. and, headed by the Second
Regiment band and their drum and
bugle corps, will march to the Field,
where seats have been secured for the
Class ina body. On arrival at the Field
a Sexennial photograph will be taken by
Phelps. A selection especially appropri-
ate to this Class will be played as they
make their appearance on the Field.
After the game the order will be as
follows: Down Chapel to College, stop-
ping at ex-President Dwight’s in order
to pay our respects to the President of
our day; continuing our way to Presi-
dent Hadley’s, that we may indulge in
our first greeting as a class to the new
President; thence proceeding to Prof.
Brush’s and Prof. Chittenden’s, after
which we wend our way down Orange

the Class Dinner will be served, and the
Class Cup presented, following which
the usual illumination and festivities will

YALE OBITUARIES.
HON. 0. S. NEWELL, EX-’OI.
Hon. O. S. Newell, ex-’61, died at his
home in Kenosha, Wisconsin, April 17.
He was a member of the Class of Sixty-
One for the first two years of the course,
but was obliged to leave on account of
illness. For several years he was Mayor
of Kenosha, but retired early from pub-
lic life, although he continued to wield
his influence indirectly throughout his
prolonged illness,
HON. ALBERT FRANCIS JUDD, 762.
Hon. Albert Francis Judd, ’62, died at
his home in Honolulu, on the 20th of
May, 1900.
Mr. Judd was the son of Dr. and
Mrs. Gerrit P. Judd, who went to Hono-
lulu under the auspices of the American
Board of Commissioners for Foreign
Missions, on the ship Partheon, arriving
there March 30th, 1828. He was born
in Honolulu, January 7th, 1838.
His early education, carried on under
the difficulties that surrounded the edu-
cation of the children of the first mis-
sionaries, was received at the Royal
School, then a school for the education
of the chiefs and their children. He
completed his preparation for College at
Oahu College, Honolulu, and entered
the Junior class at Yale in 1860, taking
his Bachelor’s degree with the Class of
Sixty-Two. The Master’s degree was
given him by Yale in 1865, and the de-
eree of LL.D. was conferred upon him
in 1894. While in College Mr. Judd
was a member of Alpha Delta Phi and
Phi Beta Kappa. |
His legal education was obtained at
the Harvard Law School, from which
he was graduated in 1864. He returned
at once to Honolulu and began the
practice of law.
His political career commenced with
his appointment as Attorney-General
under King Lunalilo in 1873. He held
that office during the reign of Lunalilo
and on his death resumed the practice
of his profession. On February 18th,
1874, he was appointed Second Asso-
ciate Justice of the Supreme Court of
the Hawaiian Kingdom, to succeed A.
-S. Hartwell, Harvard ’58, who entered
the Royal Cabinet. Mr. Judd became
First Associate Justice three years later
on February Ist, 1877, and on the death
of Chief Justice Harris became Chief
Justice on November 5th, 1881. When
he went on the bench during the stormy
period that marked the beginning of
Kalakaua’s reign, Honolulu was prac-
tically occupied by a foreign naval force,
landed to preserve order and to protect
the property of foreigners from the riots
growing out of the contest for the
throne between Kalakaua and Queen
Emma. Chief Justice Judd’s decisions in
the many important cases arising from
this bitter contest, though hotly assailed
when rendered, have stood the test of
time. Following the overthrow of the
monarchy in 1893, there were a number
of other cases of great importance, hav-
ing a political origin, which he was
called upon to decide. With annexation
and the transfer of the sovereignty to
the United States came another series
of important cases, which came before
the Supreme Court. The principles of
Chief Justice Judd’s decision that the
constitution of the United States was
not extended to the Hawaiian Islands by
the mere force of the annexation resolu-
tion have been the principles recently
approved by Congress and the Admin-
istration. His career on the bench ex-
tended over at least four periods of criti-
cal importance in Hawaiian history.
In the Fall of last year Chief Justice
Judd’s failing health led him ‘to seek
rest and recuperation in Central New
“York. An attack of the grip in Febru-
ary, when at Lakewood, New Jersey,
accelerated his decline, and he returned
home in April last. |
Mr. Judd married Miss Agnes H.
Boyd of Geneva, New York on April
4th, 1872. His widow and nine children
survive him.

sons have been at Yale, and the fourth |
is a member of the present Junior class.
The late Chief Justice has written his
name indelibly on the history of Hawaii
as an able jurist, as his father did as an
able administrative officer. He, as his
father had done before him, served the
monarchy, but he served it as an honor-
able American gentleman could. Hawaii
was the land of his birth, but the United
States was the land of his ancestry and
education. He rejoiced to see Hawaii
taken under the wing of the great repub-
lic, for he knew that political and com-
mercial safety lay that way, but he loved
Hawaii for herself, and he loved her
native people, and was anxious to do all
in his power for them by advice and
example. Thoroughly acquainted, as he
was, with the Hawaiian mind, thought
and traditions, he occupied a peculiar
position of influence and affection among
the Hawaiian people. As President of
the Hawaiian Board of Missions he
strove to fight the demoralizing influ-
ences at work among the natives.
His private life was the admiration of
all who knew him familiarly. A more
devoted husband and father could not
be found, nor a truer friend when once
he had given his friendship. His public
character was able, industrious and
patriotic; it commanded respect from
those who were not in accord with him;
it won the esteem of those who were.
The funeral was held at his late resi-
dence on Hunuanu Avenue, Honolulu, on
May 2ist. While the last rites were
simple, the six sons at home acting as
pall bearers, yet a throng of people at-
tended, including government officials,
and men and women of all nationalities,
to offer the last tributes of affection. ,
California Alumni Association.

California Yale Alumni Association, held
in San Francisco, May 22, 1900, Prof.

fornia Hotel, on the night of Friday,
April the 13th, and was the most suc-
cessful dinner the Association has yet
given. There were present about sixty
Yale men and a number of guests.

of the Association, acted as toastmaster,
and the toasts were responded to in the

Everybody used to play it and ama-

sport as any game on the foot-
stool. But first it was tennis
that took people away and then
it was golf.
But the college nines keep it up and
the preparatory schools and the
next month shows. the glory of
it. In this, as in every other
