A New Haven (Conn.) telegram SAYS
The Yale Neics Tuesday announced that
Henry III. Palmer, Of Sioux City, Iowa,
had resigned his membership in Chi Delta
Theta. Palmer is senior and member
Of the Skull-andBon Society, to belong
to which is the ambition of most Yale
College men. In his sophomore wear
he carried away the first prize for
excellency in English composition. The
announcement and the cause OF his resigna-
ton created great excitement among the
students, and nothing like it has occurred
at Yale for many years. The Chi Delta
Theta Fraternity is composed OF the five
| editors OF the Yale Literary Magazine, the
editorship Of which is stepping-stone TO
membership Of the senior sOcieties-Skull
and Bones and Scroll and Key. To become
an editor OF the Lit, as IL is called. a stu
dent must show unusual literary talent.

who went to him and expostulated with
him for his evident plagiarism. For seye-
raj days Palmer and bis friends refused to
admit that he had been guilty OF the offence
alleged, but the proofs were too con.

result.
