THE JUNIOR GERMAN.

RightY-NiRe Gets There Once Again The Favors Unusually FIne-The First German Ever Held in Alumni Hall.
 The all night festivities of Tuesday night
 did not prevent 8 large number of juniors from participating in the class german at Alumni hall last evening. Weary they were rot, or if they were they forgot it all in the splendor and joy that reigned supreme in that hall, so oft terror to the freshmanic
 heart and by no means "a thing of joy" to many an upper classman. The building
 seemed transformed. Instead of tired and anxious students bending over their tables
 hard at work over the questions propoundef
 by some merciless instructor, instead of
 these, smiling happy faces, beautiful toilets,
 fair maidens and brave young men were
 there. No tutor glided mysteriously about
 every trace of an examination ordeal had dis appeared. This was the first class german
 ever held in Alumni hall. The faculty had insisted strictly on it's rule forbidding the
 promenade unless held within two weeks af- ter fhe opening of the term, and had offered to the class as peace offering the use of Alumni for its german. And so it came about that 'S9 holds the honor of being the first class to have it's german there. About fifty couples were in attendance and they en- joyed most successful german. Twelve figures were danced, six of them favor figures and six ribbon
 In the latter figure ribbon with the lady's name is given 8 favor. A new and pleas ing figure, the mining figure so-called, was danced, in which the lights are turned down
 and the dancers carry lanterns The effect is striking. The favors were unusually attract
 i've and valuable The ladies' souvenirs were a special edition of the Yale songs printed on hne paper and bound in satin, the cover hay nfo obi the campus executed by 8 lady in the Art school. The souvenirs for the gentlemen were handsomely designed triple mirrors with the class name and date thereon, Some of the other favors were, for the ladies, blue banners with the class monogram boas containing Pot Pourri and feather tips' the colors of which blended handsomely with the colors of the costumes; for the gentle men, paper chrysanthemums and miniature beer bottles filled with that beverage. A portion of Lander's orchestra furnished the music, and patronesses were Mrs Pope Mrs Galt, Mrs. Pinehot, Mrs Parsons, Mrs. Coz gill, Mrs. Moore, Mrs. Lucas and Mrs. Rock well.
