Dissatisfaction over tho Third Trial
 of the Copeland Launch - Fresh-
 man Football Meeting - A Cornell
 Crew Man at Yale-Other Notes.
 A third trial was made Monday of the new launch which E. T. Copeland of New York built for the Yale navy. The trial did not prove very satisfactory as regards speed and it is doubtful if the boat will be accepted. The following men of the Yale committee were present: George Adee '67, President Townsend of the navy, E. s. Isham '91, and Captain Dadmun of the Yale launch. The trial was made on the North river between 152d and 172d streets. The speed of the launch was timed both with and against the tide and the average time then taken.
 President Townsend was seen last night and gave as his opinion that the trial was decidedly unsatisfactory and that the launch did not come up to the require ments in many ways and probably would not be accepted.

 From Il Ponvenir.1

If a man smokes his cigar only to keep it lighted and relishes taking it out of his mouth to watch the curl of the smoke in the air, set him down as an easy-going man. Beware of the man who never re- leases his grip on the cigar and is indiffer- ent whether it burns or not; he is cool, calculating and exacting. The man that smokes bit, rests bit, and fumbles the cigar more or less is easily affected by cir cumstances. If the eigaz goes out ire quenNy, the smoker has whole-souled disposition, is 'hail fellow we'll met,n rally fund of capital anecdotes. A ner- >vous man who fumbles his cigar great deal is sort of popinjay among men.
