a Reception at President Dwight
Captain Stagg Has a Scheme-CoIunl-
bia and Yale at Ihe Nautilus Games
General Notes.
The University crew is rowing on the har-
Dor.
Several college men attended musicale on
Whitney avenue last evening.
Terry 'SS was the first man to venture ON
the harbor in a single scull this year.
The class crews rowed on the harbor yes
terday.
The intercollegiate Athletic association
holds it's annual convention in New York to-
morrow.
Peres 'S9 has won the championship in the
FIRST class of the university chess tournament.
Reed and Gill 80 and Lambert 'S6 will now
play for second place.
Bushnell and Covs1l 'S8 and Ensign and
Griggs 'S9 composed the quartette from the
Glee club that sang at an entertainment at
the First Methodist church last evening.
The Yale delegation to the intercollegiate
Y. NJ c. A. convention at Boston will leave
in special car attached to the ZIG train to-
day. Fellewes 'S8 has been added to the
delegation.
The showing made by the Yale teams in
the tug of-war contest at Brooklyn Tuesday
evening was encouraging. The sophomore
unfortunately were pitted in the first round
against the powerful Nassau team, which fn-
ally won the championship. The picked
team and the freshmen were victorious in the
first round, but went down in the second af-
ter stubborn fight before the strong teams
not composed of college men. The compare
son between the work of Columbia's team
and the three Yale teams shows that Yale
will make good fight with Columbia in the
intercollegiate.
President Dwight rendered a reception at
his residence last evening to the Rev. Henry
Clay Trumbull of Philadelphia, who has been
delivering the lectures at the, Theological
school in the Lyman Beecher course.
The Rev. Sam Small, the noted temper
ance orator, delivered a short address on
| Temperance yesterday afternoon at the
seminary to the theologues.
A pine frame 14x7 feet, covered with can-
| vas drawn tightly and provided with an over
covering of velvet carpet, has been in the
Yale gymnasium since Monday. 1t is in ap-
pearance much like gigantic woven wire
spring bed covered with carpet, and its sur
| face is elevated about four feet above the
ground. This is Captain Stages new ar
rangemeut for teaching his base ball players
| how to steal bases. The men rush across the
sGym" at full speed and hurl themselves
on the machine, striking it with thud and
| darting across it like a shot. Yale needs
more practice in base stealing than she gets
| ordinarily and Captain Stage has hit upon
this as good scheme until spring opens.

WEST END PARKS.
The Committee On Parks Hear Partie

The Committee On Parks Hear Parties
Interested And Recommend Lay
cut And survey AS Petittoned For.
Mayor York is firm believer in parks. In
his annual message to the Court of Common
Council he called the attention of the city
fathers to a proposed park in the western
part of the city. The committee on parks at
their first meeting of the year held last eve
ming heard parties interested in these pro-
posed parks in the general committee room at
the City Hall
Alderman Barnes presided.
City Engineer Hill showed the COMMITTEES
the various maps showing the West river as
Strengthened and the layout of the boulevard.
The particular park referred to is the one
which it seems desirable to locate on the land
formerlya part of the old town farm, and
comprises four squares bounded by Elm,
Martin and Norton streets and extended to
Hamilton Park on the west.
Gardner Morse, representing the trustees
of the old town farm, said that the trustees
wanted the city to decide one way or the
other, as they wanted to lay out the land and
divide it up into building lots. Mr.. Morse
favored the layout of park extending from
the river to Sherman avenue and the trustees
feet on both sides of Martin street and call
the land assessments of benefits and damages
equal.
Ex-Courcilman Chillingworth gave the
facts relating to the first starting of the pros
posed park and where the idea originated.
He spoke at length on the great benefit the
park would be as breathing place for the
residents in the western part of the city.
He thought the only way to obtain the land
was by condemnation. He represented many
property holders and asked that the COM
nittee recommend the board of public
works be and they are hereby directed to re-
port separate surveys and layouts of the
park avenues as shown on map numbered
53911, now on file in the Office of the city
engineer, namely a survey and layout from
Winthrop avenue to Norton street, another
from Norton street to Mott street and an
other from Mott street to the western boule-
ward or the West river; also survey and
layout of park on the meadow and bank OF
the West river as his honor the mayor di-
reefs substantially as indicated in his mes
sage.
After Mr. Chillingworth had explained the
vote the committee went into executive ses-
sion.
The committee, after debating for two
hours and looking the matter over carefully,
voted to pay visit to the vicinity and look
the ground over.
It was voted that all petitions now lying
on the table referring to parks in the western
part of the city ba referred to the committee
on parks.

WATERBURY, Feb. 23.-W. 81. Benson, the
Brooklyn, N. Y, restaurant keeper who shot
at his wife here February when she at
tempted to prevent him abducting their IL
year-old girl, came here Tuesday evening
with two detectives, and since then has been
shadowing the woman at her apartments in
Kiagsbury street. Last night ut II o'clock,
in company with City Sheriff Mcdonald, Ben
son demanded admittancs to the house which
he had provided for her, and found the wo-
man in compromising position; her para
mour, one John Dewey, fed to closet in the
attic floor, but was arrested. The evidence
was not sufficient to hold Dewey, but Ben
sons suspicious that the woman is untruth-
full were fully verified. The three children
which Judge Troy gave her the custody of
will probably be reelaimed by the father.

TUCSON, A. T., Feb. 2S.-The west bound
train ON the Southern Pacific railroad was
boarded by two masked men at Helms Pass
station at $50 O'Clock last evening. After

the water tank, covered the engineer and
firemen with rifles and when mile and a
half from the station the engineer was com
PEELED to stop the train. One of the robbers
uncoupled the mail and express car with
the engine. The engineer was compelled
to move on a mile and half further when

forced the Wells, Fargo & Co.'s express m es-
sengers to open the car, which they rifed of
valuables, but without disturbing the mails.
The engineer was next ordered to go back
anastake up the other part of the train
and the robbers left the railroad and

CHICAGO, Feb. 23.-Justice Harlan gave a
decision to-day in the United States Circuit

ship and possession of the lake front. The

The railroads main contention, viz, that it
owned one mile in width of the bed of the
city's harbor, is set aside. The riparian
rights remain in the city with the consent Of
the State not as to only the natural shore,
| but where filing in has been done even on a
| larger scale by the railroad.

Mrs. Cleveland had gay time at the SUBJ

the first time the experience of plucking Or
ange blossoms and oranges from the tree. She
tossed to the President the first orange she
picked, but he muffed it and caught it ON his
nose. She offered him another, but he de-
clined saying that a man got into trouble a
long time ago by accepting fruit plueked and
offered by woman. Here Mrs. Cleveland
enjoyed an opportunity of cutting pineapples
fron the stem and she did whatever was pro-
posed with sort of girlish glee. A tame
fawn was presented to her and will be for
warded to the White House by express.

SENATE.-On motion of Mr.. Voorhees, the
Senate bill to extend the laws of the United
States over certain unorganized serr1tory
south OF Kansas (popularly known as IN
Mans landry was taken from the calendar
and passed
The bill to provide for the compulsory
education of Indian children (not including
the i've civilized tribes nor the Osages) was
taken from the calendar and debated. Mr..
Vest spoke of the bill a most important
one and as establishing an entirely new sys-
tenn. There was no subject that admitted of
greater discussion of more difference of op1n-
ion, more sentiment and more ignorance than
that Of the treatment, of Indians. He de-
clared his conviction that day schools among
the Indians were absolutely worthless.
Mr.. Dawes asked Mr.. Vest to qualify his
statement and to say that a great many of
them were absolutely worthless and that be-
cause there wac no power to compel the at
tendance of the Indian children.
Mr.. Vest declined to make any qualifca-
ton or exception for that reason. Universal
experience was that the Indian boy or girl
who attended day school for three or four
hours day and then returned to the tepee
or wigwam derived no benefit whatever from
the school education. He repeated that he
was in direct antagonisn to the idea that In
dian day schools should receive dollar from
the government. He would abolish every
one of these schools if he could.
After further discussion between Senators
Vest, Dawes and Teller the bill went over
without action and the Senate then took up
the billsto incorporate the Washington cable
electrical railway Of the District of Columbia.
After being amended in several particulars
the bill was passed without division. The
route of the road is to be on Pennsylvania
