George Alvin Watkinson Laid to Rest. All about the college yesterday deep feel ing of sadness prevailed. Three weeks ago
 Mir. Watkinson was the pride of the college,
 the hero in the football arena, and now he
 lies quietly slumbering among the silent
 majority. The shock is too great to be easily
 forgotten and his bright face and winning
 ways will be ever remember ed by those who
 had the good luck to come in contact with
 him. Yesterday his mortal remains were
 borne to Evergreen cemetery and the many
 who followed the mournful cortege pros claimed their sincere grief. Services were held at the residence of his parents, No. 58 Dwight Place, and though intended to be private were nevertheless open to his many thronging friends. Students of all classes and of all departments were present as were also the freshmen, of which class he member, who attended in body and per formed their last respects to the remains of their dead comrade Dr. Barbour conducted the services, assisted by the Rev. Dr. Twitchell. Dr. Barbour spoke eloquently on the worth and excellence of the departed. of his gentlemsnly habits, his respect for what is right, his love for his maker. The Rev. Dr. Twitchell also spoke and showed by his utteranees his deep feeling for the sad lot which had befallen his friends and family. The casket was then opened to the public and remains of George Watkinson. The funeral cortege was followed by the freshmen in body to the cemetery, where after 8 few re- marks by Dr. Barbour upon the lesson taught by this sudden death, the body was lowered to it's last resting place.

 tainly deserved E ,m the first Miss Fortes- cue has charming stage presence and plays
 the character naturally, modestly and intelli- gently. Her pronunciation IS quite

 praise. The play is hackneyed one, but it was enacted last evening as to interest it's auditors almost as much as Gretchen" eer-

 evidently original, but it resembles that of
 Bernhardt more than that of any En glish-speaking actress. She excels in the lighter parts, but was equal to the re- quirements of the more intense passages in the third and fourth acts. The support was adequate MT. Gotthold made very cred itable "Henri de Sartorys" and that modest

The New Haven Association Meets
 It's Verdict on the Situation-Elestfon n
 of Officers.
 About twenty members of the New Haven Civil Service Reform association ap- peared at the fifth annual meeting in the In- surance building last night. The report of the treasurer was accepted. Secretary Withing, in behalf of the executive committee, read their annual report, rehearsing the victories and defeats of the movement to purify the public service during the year. After refer ring to the utterances of President Cleveland upon this subject the report reads: "It is to be regretted that the author of these ringing phrases has been influenced by the exigen- cies of party success to consider political ac- tivity on the part of federal oficeholders as pernicious only when directed against the Democratic party. His appointments in Pennsylvania and Maryland, and perhaps in this State also, have not always been such as the believers in this movement can approve: As to public sentiment upon this question, it is a significant fact that in New England, where the law is fairly we'll enforced, Demo- cratic gains have been made, while in the West where the law is farce, Democratic losses are the result"
