The brakeman gives the prevailing
tone to the society Of despatchers'
lobbies and other lounging places
which he frequents. He originates
whatever slang may be deemed neces-
sary to give spice to the talk Of the
caboose and round house. He calls q
gravel train "dust express" and re-
fers to the pump for COMPRISING air
for the power brakes as o 'wind jam
mer." The flreman's prosaic labors are
Heightened by being POLITICALLY men
toned as the handling of black
diamonds, and the modification of be-
ing called into the superintendent
office to explain some dereliction Of
duty is disguised by referring to the
episode as dancing on the carpet. y

How Japanese Rooms Arc Lighted.

Light is admitted into japanese
rooms, not by glass windows but by a.
kind of wooden gratings, over which
white paper is pasted on tho outside.
THIS paper diffuses the sunlight about
the room very pleasantly, but tits not
proof against rain; III rainy weather,
therefore, the shutters have to be put
up which are used to close the veranda
and house in the night time, andwhich
are the only doors in @ japanese house
that it is thought necessary to furnish
with bolt. AS the putting up ans
taking down of these shutters is q
matter demanding some time, it

Msmnn.s saclnsion In rna,a.

had not been long in India when a
native lady who owned large estates
sent to beg my husband to paw her a
visit, as she was anxious that he
should take charge of her property.
which was much embarrassed, and
wished to discuss the matter with him.
We dismounted from our elephants in
the court yard of her house. and wers
conducted by. magnificent major
domo and crowd of smaller safel-
lites to q carpeted veranda. where
chairs wero placed ready for us. The
steward then approached, holding in
the palms Of his joined hands some
gold coins, which we touched instead
Of royalty taking, as was the generous
custom in less prudish days. But no
lady was to be seen, and I was amazed
and oven startled to hear nv husband
still looking straight beforo him be,
gin speaking as If he saw some one.
1t gave me quite shock, but as he
showed no other sign of sudden in
sanity, | looked around for some ex-
PLANTATION, and then discovered that
our chairs wero placed near q kind of
screen called chik, made of thin
strips Of bamboo, which completely
prevents any one from outside seeing
in, although person within the room
can see out, and behind this shelter
ing mantle of invisibility sat the LADY,
and her women. The conversation
was long, and almost wholly unintel-
ligible to me, but l gathered that nv
husband, having reason to be dis
pleased with the lady's conduct, de
clined to accept her hospitality in any
way, which, Judging from certain elo-
quent sounds that issued from behind
the screen, drew from her tears and
lamentation. -Cornhill Magazine.

PASSED AWAY.

Death of a Daughter of Noah Webster.
 BRIDGEPORT, Nov. 15.-Eliza s. Webster Jones, widow of the late Rev. Henry Jones, died at her residence in this city this morn- ing in her eighty-ffth year. She was an large circle of friends during ffty-years in this city.
 Mrs. Jones was the youngest daughter of the late Noah Webster, IL. D., born in the old Benedict Arnold honse in New Haven December 21, 1903.
 In 1910 the family removed to Amherst, Mass, and during her seven years residence there Mrs. Jones had the educational advan- tages of the academy at that place. During her 14th year she attended the school of the late Mrs. Lydia H. Sigourney in Hartford, Conn. Here she first met her husband of after years. In 1922 her family returned to New Haven.
 On Sept 25, 1895, she was married to Rev. Henry Jones and very seen assumed the du- ties of pastors wife at Berlin Second Con- gregational soeiety-now New Britain, Conn where she endeared herself to her husband's 6 practitioners and the whole community. In the subsequent career of her husband as teacher of young ladies at Greenfield, Mass, and young men in the Cottage school, ? in Bridgeport, he counted her as an important factor in his success and the alum nj will rise on masse to call her memory blessed.
 In her removal this community in which she has resided for fifty years, and especially the First Congregational church, have met with no ordinary loss.
 Society gatherings and sewing circles never seemed complete without her inspiring pres enee and activities Her sympathies were unbounded, and her works of benevolence and charity were only limited by her means. In short she was universally loved and es- teemed as one of the best typs of Christian women.

wILLLATIONs COME r

Possibly that He will NOt-New Ha- vem Must Then Look for a New Goal Tend.
 It now looks as if Lations, the goal tend New Haven had secured, will not come here. When arrangements were made with Manag- or Bancroft for his release the latter had it all settled to have the vacant place on his team filled by Joe Riley of the Hartfords. Now comes hitch. Riley has good posi-. tion in Chelsea, Mass. He says he doesn't desire to play polo this season. Of course he can't be compelled to play. The New Haven management at present are in a sort of a dilemma. If Riley won't play Bancroft will surely 1eep Lations. In that case New Ha. ven will play either McKie, who played for a time with Waterbury last season, or A5er- crombie of last seasons Bridgeports, or "Stub" Reed, who tended goal for New Ha- ven year ago. But if Riley can be induced to play we will have Lations. It is hinted that the former is holding off for more salary. Perry, Phe1an ard Connors arrived yester- day. In the morning Newcomb and Valiant went to the Quinnipiac rink and practiced. All who have reported will practice at the polo rink today.
 The Meriden Journal says that the New Haven management should make Phelan cap tain.
 The first game will be played Monday night with the Bridgeports. The game will be called at 9 o'clock. The prices this season will be the same as formerly, admission % cents, reserved seats 35 and 50 cents to the gallery. Reserved seats are on sale at dal- lagher's cigar store.

YALE NOTES.

The Football muddle-An official Lett ter to she Harvard Management Last Night-Win the Game be Playedf-TO.
 DaY's Games-Gther Matters. The result of the dispute between Yale and Harvard as to the place of the football game is still unknown. As Harvard has declared her intention of playing nowhere else than iu Cambridge it looks very much as if the game will not be played. The Harvard Princeton
 game will be played at Princeton to-day. Ii
 Princeton wins the Yale-Harvard game will
 be comparatively unimportant, but if Har-
 yard wins the struggle for the championship will be between Yale and Harvard. In that event a settlement of the dispute would have to be reached in order to decide the champi- onship.
 The following letter was sent to Cambridge
 last night
 NEW HAVEN, Nov. 16 To the Harvard Football Management: Dear Sirs-Your letter of the 14th Instant in an

 This afternoon at o'clock the Yale team will play it's second championship game with Wesleyan at the Field. This is the last championship game of the season in New Haven.
 A number of bets were made on the Har- vard-Princeton game at Princeton yesterday afternoon. Many Yale men will leave for New York this morning whence they take the special train to Princeton at 12:s0. So far Princeton has scored 660 points to their opponents 0.
