PRINCETON, N. j., Jan. 1.-THE Princeton
nine began work this week in the gymnasium.
The candidates are not very numerous, but
the material on the whole is very promising.
In Mercer hall substitute has been found
for the old cage in the gymnasium. At a
trifling expense it has been turned into first
class handball court. 1t also affords good
place for battery practice. The dressing
rooms in connection with the hall can be
utilized by the players
1t is likely that a professional coach
probably Irwin of the Philadelphias-wfl be
engaged soon. The men are showing much
determination in their work, and the out
look for the nine is encouraging.
Princeton will be represented in the union
handicap games to be held on the 10Th at
Madison Square Garden by a team of six
men, who will contest in seven events, as
follows:
Seventy five yards run-Ames 90; 300 yards
run-Ames 80, Dohm 90; 440 yards run-Chapin

TO SEEK BUDDHA'S GRAVE.
Two PhiladeIphia Gentlemen VIII Inves-
tigate the Doctrines of Theoso-
ply for Themselves.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan IL - The Cunard
steamer Gallia, which leaves New York on
Saturday morning, viii have among her
passengers two Philadelphians who are
going abroad on a peculiar mission AL
though it is not generally known, this city is
one of the chief seats of the study of theoso-
ply in America. The Kristhena society
lately established on Walnut street, near
Eleventh, is the headquarters of the eastern
culture in Philadelphia. The membership of
the society represents all phases of social life.
At the seances may be found the society
leader, led to investigating the doctrine with
the idea of seeking something new. With him
is the East Indian merchant devoted to the
worship of his native doctrines and pleased
to find them observed in foreign land. The
student, man of the world and religious en-
thusiast are all represented at the meetings
of the Kristhena in this city. Among the
best known members of the Philadelphia
branch of the society is Mr.. Henry b. Foulke,
well known Walnut street real estate agent
Mr.. Foulke has determined to personally i'm
vestigate the doctrine of theosophy in its
native home, and accompanied by his friend,
Mr.. c. Ingersoll Maurey, viii sail for Europe
on Saturday for this purpose
The plan of the trip is an interesting one
Arriving at London, the two pilgrims will
visit the high prestess of the eastern doc
trine, Nine. Blavatsky. Here they will be
furnished with letters to the theosophists
of India Leaving London, the American
theosophists viii take the India and Peninsu-
lar Steamship company to Alden. At the
wharf they will be met by the representa-
tives of the society in India and viii be
formally introduced to the Oriental rites
and mysteries of this strange sect. The
programme from this point will depend
upon the decision of the native breth-
rem. The town of Kurachee, in Sindh,
one of the seats of the older worship, will be
visited, and the trip will continue until the
American Buddhists reach Adiar, the prin-
cipal home of Buddhism in the east Under
the guidance Of the new conductors the two
Philadelphians hope to make journey to the
Himalayan hills and visit ancient sites
hitherto unexplored The trip will take
about two years and its accomplishment will
be watched with intense interest by the mem.
bers of the various theosophical societies in
this country.

STOP PAYING RENT,

District Manager L. P. Knickerbocker would like to call the attention of all those interested in getting themselves a home who are paying rent, that the Mercantile Cooperative Bank of 37 and 39 Wall street, New York, have estab- lished a Branch Office in Waterbury in Platt's block, East Man street, Room 19, with Martin Hellmann as president; John B. Vallee, first vice president; George l.. Pelham, second vice president; Mathew Kennedy, treasurer; James E. Russell, attorney; William J. Cassidy, secretary and local agent, and John H, Fruin, Thomas F. Dougherty and Mathew Kenr edy, appraisal committee. This is the best system of enforced savings, while all members have an equal voice in the management. There is no SAFE INVESTMENT more profitable. It is better than savings bank, quadrupling the interest. and enables a member to borrow and pay his loan in monthly install ments. Money is loaned at fixed rate of interest and on fixed premiums in any amounts, to be paid back monthly in PLACE OF RENT. Shareholders have absolute security for their money and they are assured large profits on their investment. Members may apply for a loan at any time. A new series will commence January 1st. For full in- formation call on William J. Cassidy, local agent for Waterbury, at Platt's block, East Main street, Room 19, any evening from to o'clock.

Norwalk Club Men Shivering In

 SOUTH NoRwALK, December 30. The arrest of Hon E. A. Woodward, treas urer of South Norwalk club, was follow ed by a raid upon the club room Satur day night. A large number of the members had assembled in their elegant ly furnished apartments and were dis cussing the arrest of MT Woodward when Constable Wallace Damn appeared upon the scene and seized all the liquors found on the sideboard, which included elgh- teen bottles of the choicest brands of ''hard stuff" No attempt had been made to hide the liquor as the members Tn their testimony at the trlal of James Gordon, the steward, admitted that it was kept there. The seizure is supposed to have been for the purpose of showing up the club to the pub lie in as strong a light as possible. The saloon keepers are the ones who are pushing the matter. They are not back ward in stating that they have lost con- siderable custom by the organization of the club. Many of the members, among whom are the most influential citizens of the place, claim that they knew nothing about the gambling and drink ing that was going on there when they were induced to join and as soon as this trouble is settled they will resign. No event of recent years in Norwalk has caused more comment. The members are shaking in their shoes for fear they will be summoned as witnesses III Wood.

Influenza and Pneumonia Lie in
 Wait in the Atmosphere.
 A large number Ill this city are suffer ing from colds and mild form of in- f1uenza. The season is an unhealthy one and leading physicians say that the amount of sickness at present IS unusu- ally large. Druggists bear out this state ment by reporting a remarkably brisk demand for drugs and medicines. This condition of things is undoubtedly owing to the unreasonable weather experienced of late. The ground, unhardened by frost, soaks in greedily the many severe rainfalls, and the dampness thus general ed, and communicated to the atmos- phere, cannot fail to work injury. An other reason, not to be overlooked, Is the fact that people are tempted by the m1ldness of the weather to lay aside seasonable clothing, and thus expose themselves to sudden changes. It be- hooves everybody therefore. to use judg- ment, and all precautions during thls trying time.
 The doctors say that influenza is not a contagious disease. It usually travels on a westward course and has never as stunned as serious phase as it wears in Europe. This difference in degree is at tributed to climatic differences. Dr C. A. Lindsey, secretary of the state board of health, thinks that influenza is 8 microbe disease and that the microbe is carried through the air and inhaled One feature of the ailment which dis tinguishes it from the ordinary cold is that it is accompanied by nervous symDtOms

PUBLIC BUILDINGS.

Little Difficulty in Passing Bill
 For a Small Amount
 The Washington correspondent of the New Haven Register says: The question of appropriating money for public buildings is one that now comes up with as much regularity as an annual appropriation bill. It IS one of the ways of spending the surplus against which in reason there can be no argument. As a rule there is little difficulty in passing a bill, debate in the house only being caused by the amount asked for. If the bill is introduced by a member of prom thence and influence, the amount asked will probably be granted, other wise it must take its chances and will fare we'll or ill, according to the temper of the house. This discrimination has led to very general desire for general already been introduced in the house. One of them provides that any town whose postoffice receipts amount to S5.OOO year, net, shall be entitled to government building; another fixes the figure some what higher, and the third determines the matter on the basis of population One of these bills will probably be passed In the short time that the pres ent congress has been in session two hundred bills for the erection of public buildings have been introduced. Before the session comes to a close it is likely that hundred more bills of this char acter will have been introduced. The highest appropriation asked for is at Kansas City. where the citizens want two millions and half of government money, and the lowest amount. 0,O00, is for a building in a Georgia town. The total amount called for by the bills already introduced Is something over SI GOO 0OO

On It's Feet.
 The Hartford Courant says there seems no reason to doubt the success of the newly y-formed New England base ball league. Five cluos are already in and enough towns are knocking for ad- mittance to make ten-club league, if that should seem desirable. Hartford, Spring field, Lowell Worcester and Manchester (N. H.) are settled. Brock ton, HolyoBe and Fall River in Mass achusetts, Providence and Pawtucket in Rhode Island, and Waterbury in this state are anxious for invitations to enter. Bridgeport has also been talked of, and New Haven may also find it to her in terest to join. A meeting of the New England league will be held in Spring. field as soon as telegraphic recognition of the league has been received by Secretary Sullivan. This notice should be received to-day, and in that case the meeting will be held tonight. At this meeting some other towns may be ad- mitted.
