ing and dinner Of the Yale Alumni Association
of Boston and vicinity was held at Young's

exercise. He expressed regret at the enforced
absence Of President Dwight and then intro
duced as his representative Arthur L. Hadley,
a professor at Yale College, who spoke at
length upon the inevitable increase In the
range Of study in colleges. II was his opinion
that man at the head Of a university must
become less and less Of teacher and more and
more of an organizer.
He must be man OF business, and Prosi-
dent Dwight is man OF business. Touching
the question Of college athletics, tho speaker
said he was firm believer In athletics. They
are a powerful means Of discipline when they
are properly managed.
President Walter Quincy Scott Of Phillips

WASHINGTON CRITIC
CLAIMS or THE SOUTH.
Congressman Perkins Thinks that 1t
should Have "a Cabinet OfHccr.


Congressman Perkins Thinks that It
should Have "a Cabinet Omccr.
A CRITIc scribe meeting Congressman
Perkins, of Kansas, in the House cor
ridor asked him If he thought the South
should he given place in President
lIarrison's Cabinet. The Kansas Con-
aressman answered at once that in his
Judgment it should, and when asked to
suggest who the Southern representative
should be, answered promptly: General
William Malone Of Virginia.
why? ?"
First Because it would be good poll
tics; second, because General Malone
is sincere and uncompromising Repub-
llcan, an active and successful worker,
man of unquestoned integrity, with
excellent business and executive qualifi-
cations; true to his friends and his con-
victions, and with larger personal fol-
lowing than any other Republican in
the South, If not IN the country"
Continuing Judge Perkins said that,
IL the "Solid South" was to be broken up,
it must be by ignoring the color line and
by encouraging the late -Confederates
to strike down the prejudices that have
heretofore bound them to the log wagons
of the Democratic party, and to give
them to understand that the United
States is their country and that, If they
would prosper, they must think OF some-
thing besides the memories of the war
and the bitter days of secession and en-
roll themselves with that political organi-
Zation which would build up, rather
than tear down, and that would give to
all sections of our country growth and
development, thrift and prosperity,
rather than the Democratic doctrine of
cheap labor and free trade, with the
penury and want that must necessarily
follow as its concomitants.
REPUBLICANS MUST BE LIBERAL.
Judge Perkins said he would not ignore
the Union men of the South, nor would
he reward the Bourbons or the Mug
wumps, but he thought the true policy
for the Republican party to observe was
to be liberal and catholic toward the
late Confederates. He said that the race
prejudices in the South were so strong
that the whites would not In their local
governments consent TO be dominated
and controlled by the colored element,
and he thought It would be bad politics
for the Republicans to inaugurate any
policy that would encourage race preju-
dces and bring to the front the color
line.
He said he never addressed better polit
ical meetings in his life than some Of
those he addressed in Virginia during
the recent campaign, made up almost en-
tirely, as some of them were, by ex. Con
federates, and if given proper encourage
ment these men were ready to fight the
battles of the Republican party, and tt
bury forever the traditions and misera
bic bigotry of the Democratic organiza
ton,

A Jolly Time Enjoyed by the New York
Alumni.
New YORK, Feb. About $50 sons OF
Williams College gathered last evening at the
Brunswick to enjoy their annual reunion.
Many prominent Alumni were present, but by
a curious conflict OF the Presbyterian and Con-
gregational dates Of the day Of prayer for
colleges, none of the members OF the college
faculty could be present. The Presbyterians
appointed Wednesday and the Congregational
lists Thursday, and the conflict Of dates was
not discovered early enough to change the
evening OF the reunion.
Among the graduates present were: Ex-
Congressman Martin l. Townshend, '33, Of
Troy; Judge Thomas Nelson, 1876; Rev. DR.. Il.
Kempshall, '52, of Elizabeth, N. D., and b.

He Passed Away shortly After Awaken
Inn from Sieep.

Ing from Sleep.
VIENNA, Feb. LA dispatch to tho Fren,-
denbldu from Meyerling says: Grown Prince
Rudolf left Vienna on Monday III court car
riago for Brentcnfurth, where q cab was wait
ing to convey him TO Moyering. The Crown
Prince, however, preferred to walk the dis
lance, and did not use the cab. During the
walk he CONVEX scd cbeertully with the guests
who accompanied him.
On Tuesday the Crown Prince and his
friends went on q hunting expedition. Upon
tho return OF the party the Crown Prince com
planned OF q headache and retired to bis room
lie sent telegram to the palace at Vienna
stating that he would be unable to attend the
imperial dinner which was to be given that
evening aud wrote several letters in his own
room. On Wednesday morning he awoke be-
fore o'clock aud summoned his old servant,
Johann, to whom he gave All order To hayo
bis breakfast served at 7.30.
At the appointed time his valet carried his
breakfast to the room and was Mortified to
Bnd the Crown Prince dead in his room. The
valet rushed into the courtyard and informed
Count Hoyos and Prince Philip OF Coburg,
who hurried to the chamber of the Grow n
Prince. Prince Philip, who was overpowered
by grief, remained in the chamber, while
Count Hoyos drove to Vienna to impart the
sad information to the imperial family
The wreath placed on the coffin by tho Grown
Princess was composed OF the desceased's
favorite howers--white roses, white pinks and
lilies of the valley. The meet ng between
the Emperor aud his daughter. tho Arch
Duchess Gisea, was most affecting. An Off
cial report, after the post mortem examination
says that death was caused by sudden par
aysis OF the heart, brought on by attacks Of
acute rheumatism.
The messages OF coincidence from Queer
| Victoria and the Prince of Wales were among
the first received. Among the many rumorl
afloat was one that Herr Won Tsza had beer
nssassinated. His arrival at Vienna paciiiet
| the public.
It has been officially announced that Arch
| Duke Charles Louis, the Emperor's brother, II
| now the heir to the throne. Doctors Wieder

THE APPROPRIATIONS.
Two More Bills Now Ready to be Re
ported.

Two More Bills NOW Ready to DC Ne-
ported.
/, The House Committee on Agriculture has
completed the Agricultural Appropriation bill
for the fiscal year ending juno 80, 1890. Tho
appropriation amounts to $1,636,010 The
experimental sugar stations are abandoned,
and the distribution of seed is transferred
from the Department to the experimental sta
ton. This change was made through the ef-
forts of Mr.. Burnett, and Is expected will
meet with serious opposition In the House; as
distribution of two-thirds Of the seed. Mr..
Burnett says that the city members have made
practice of selling their portion OF the seed,
aud that the members from the country have
been obliged TO purchase enough to send to
their friends. These are the only notable
changes. The bill In general is similar to that
OF last year.
The House Committee on POstofiices and
Postroads has completed the Postofiice APP
preparation bill for the fiscal year ending June
80, 1890. The appropriation amounts to 500,
595, 444. The principal items are as follows:
For the Postofiice Of the Postmaster-G eneral,
1919, 800; for compensation to postmasters,
$4,000 900; for free delivery service, s., 0O0,-
600; for compensation to clerks in postoffices,
SO, $50, O00 for inland mail transportation, 49,
650,000; for inland transportation by steam
boats, S450,000; for mail messenger service,

81, 260, 900; for railway postofiice clerks, So.
600, 900; for inland transportation by railroad
routes, OF which q sum not exceeding $50, 00C
may be employed to pay freight ON the postal
cards, stamped envelopes, ETC., to the post
offices and depots Or distribution. $40, los, 55S
for transportation of foreign mails, $B5000O.
The committee adopted plan OF classified
ton of clerks In first and second class offices
proposed by the Postmaster General. A pro-
vision proposed by the Postmaster-G General
was adopted as to promotions, which ht
thinks will be wise in order to remove
advancements, as far as possible, from the in
| huence of favorltism. The committee has de-
cided not to undertake any legislation during
this Congress In the direction Of a reduction
of the rates of compensation for railway mai
carriages.

Representatives of Soft Coal District

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 1.--All the bitumin-
ous-producing districts shipping coal to tide
water were represented at the annual meeting
of the Seaboard Steam Coal Association In
this city Wednesday. The general condition of
the trade was discussed, but no decisive action
was taken on any question. The new pooling
agreement came up and several questions were
asked as to the bearing and limitations OF some
OF the paragraphs The discussion was Gu
tirely of an Informal character. No report
was received from the commissioner as to the
signatures obtained to the agreement nor was
any attempt made to fix prices or adjust
percentages. All these details will come up
at future meeting. After the adjournment
1t was stated that some of the Beech Creek
shippers had already signed, and that there
was very little doubt that all the important
interests In that region would soon come in.
