 The Glass Histories.
 | Interesting Times on the College Campus. 1 In the afternoon the students and their | friends gathered in the enclosure on the cam pus to listen to the class histories ard enjoy | the "gags" on the boys, After singing ''Eli Yale" cries of Bots" were heard and the
 first of the historians, Carl E. Botsford, of Elgin, H., stepped forward and began: ! s'Friends, foemen and countrymen, lend mo your ears. I come to gag my classmates, not ! to praise them.'' Some of the t'gags' were very effective. "Alex. Newton" said the historian, lis very persevering man. For ! four years he ciung to the idea of 8 beard ! and at last the beard began to materialiNe But his feelings may be better imagined than ! described when the class photographer told 1 him that the beard must be sacrificed as it would take less time to shave than to retouch ! the negative. Jas. H. Pennimsn has attained considerable success in New Haven society ! all on his shape, not handsome but awfully neat. Next we come to Ike-not Hartenstein, but Mayer. He has been promi- nent in his class and other places-mostly l other places. He has served on the New
 Haven police, but owing to misunderstood ! ing with his brother officers he was request l ed to resign, which he reluctantly did. Ern- | est B. Kimberly, or, The Yale Bicycle club, | The club consists of three men, Kimberly l Kim and Kimberly! He is tho founder and l oldest living member; he is president, treas- ] urer, secretary and members. Beware of I lLs ,ls aI ITn.- c.. pears as 8 member of Yale 'S4, but there is 1 doubt as to whether he belongs to Yale or | Wellesley. A certain amount of simplicity is ! refreshing, but we must draw the line at l Pretty George"-for he went to see the l YaIs-Harvard race at Saltonstall and never
 saw cars until he came to New Haven. And 1 next comes Dan Jones - Jumping Jack 1 Jones '' His name, like that of Barnum, l has become a household word and his l powers are as varied as -back-ection 1 patent combination jack-knife or patent 1 medicine warranted to cure everything from | corns to dyspepsia. Jernberg, the Norwegian | apostle of theism, breaches the philosophical | clements of Methodism to the benighted heather at Bethany. By their works ye 1 shall know them,' 8 quotation appropriate
 to ''Rody." He is rustic, romantic shep- | herd or nothing. Carp in his every day l walks does not shine in all his glory-it is 1 only when in the halls of Terpsichore with 1 maidens fair engaged in the whirly-whirlnsss
 of the whirly whirl that he dazzles all eyes. Newell, Newell Clark Knight! ye Gods! what | 8 mouthful! So little 8 man with so big 8 gentler sex proclaims at once his title to his sonbriquet pet of the ladies' He has been abroad, too, and the last time Wales and did Paris is his introduction to his conversa- tion with his victims.'
 After three cheers for ''Bots' '' ''Amici"
 was sung and J. l.. Ravens took the stand
 He began: 'I offer you bill of fare. You
 shall have soup, for there is Boyd; fish of
 all varieties, but of game only jail birds Of
 drinks we have a new brand of fzzIe -Spen-

 tlonlza Yale college and establish hare and

Edward Chap --NA ~ ~-"-- fit of his college course Modest but perse- vering, he has borne himself through the four years steadfaSt to 8 good purpose, and | has been rewarded by some of the highest l literary honors of the college.

He has bluffed the faculty ont of church papers for four years. But here comes our pet, our pride, Eddy" Chinery, Sandy, Gale. When Eddie first came to New York he got tired walking on the hard pavement, so he took a
 bus It was a strange vehicle to him, but he read pay here on box and something about getting change from the driver. So ae stepped up and dropped $2 bill in the After long and not Sundsy-schooI dispute md collected fares to the tune of $7 50. David Kinley is 8 reformer. He went forth like David of old to fight the ohilistines, but he had to meet no awk- yard Goliath, but giant far more formid- 'ole-the veritable Poppycock, from the land 'f Bosh, which is the central province of oolishness. Wilbur Booth spoiled 'all player to make a scholar He has fought {

 ':But we all envy seldie and that is the req d on for our criticism. Paul E. Jenks famiI- t arly called "Pop," continued the ''Raes." t lis crowd of subjects was somewhat of fast 8 rowd and he had plenty good material to Tork on. ''Ohing-a-Ling'' rose from the ? rowd and the band played gems from "Peni- muse the crowd with jokes on his class- h lates But good as all the histories so far n ad been, especially that of Ravens, yet the $ est was to come. The crowd seemed to salize this as storm of rosrs for "Wilder," V Amos," brought out the funny man of 'S4, | mos Parker Wilder. He began with an ad- ress in wilder Latin than Cicero ever wrote. rt he wresths of blue smoke curled up from G le long-stemmed pipes which, filled with g allagher's best, solaced the wounded feel , gs of the seniors as Amos began. He gave U fine exhibition of the eccentricities of vs- It ous professors and then Jumped on" his se 'mpanions. ''It is in junior year that we ci gin to know men as they are. Then such at en as Chapman, Dr. Walker, Mccormick tn Id W. Strong come to the front for the spect and admiration which is their due. e1 mmie Reynolds is man who had learned N

 its to the prefessor's houses. President Ya rter and Professors Phelps, Wheeler and th' shards made speeches. The seniors re- an ned to the campus. The class-day exer-
 es of 'S4 were over and preparations were vii de for the festivities of the evening" Pa
