THE COLLEGE MANS CRISIS.

Senior Society Elections at xaAe-1m.
 pOrtance to College Socfety-Sur-
 prises and Disappointments-L
 of Those Elected-Notes of the Cam.
 pus.
 The great crisis of the college mans life, namely the efestion to the senior so- cieties, finally came off yesterday afternoon to the exultation of forty-fve select men and the greater or less chagrin and disap- pointment of most of the others. This custom of senior society elections ct Yale is SO old that is it hardly necessary to de- scribe it. About o'clock generally on the Thursday afternoon before examinations (this time week earlier), large part of the college assemblies on the csmpus-be- fore the fence. There are few juniors who do not attend, for there are nine, we may say, who do not at least have speak ing idea that they have g possible chance: The seniors are interested to see whom envied classmates will choose among the junior class, the sophomores to see who they will have to choose them the follow ing year, and the freshmen naturally out of that guilelness curiosity for which they are noted. Besides this there are many wondering onlookers, principally lady friends of those who prefer to sit and gos- sip with them, as they watch the proceed ing from the windows of Durfee.
 Meanwhile, as the great crowd is stand ing expectantly before Durfee, a man or two with the envied society pin on his coat elbows his way among them, passing many who are waiting for him, when suddenly a slap is heard and all eyes are turned ,;oL1 1x, ;,,& &bo ,f @lo l. | the chosea,walk quietly awaysto his room, followed by the man who has just slapped | him on the shoulder Great cheeiS zco up. as the man elected is known, from those of his friends, who have been waiting the event. This is,Skept up slowly for more | than two hours--for the society men are very wary and often pass their man, to come back to him afterward, that he may be, taken by surprise. So great l is the excitement that one man | yesterday was even seen to cry like a | child before every one, when the last man was called for skull and bones and he | was left behind. One or two who believed themselves "sure men" walked disconsol- ately and almost desperately away without a word of recognition to any one. It is considered in the college that the
 societies this year are about on par as
 regards their choice of men. .s Up to this
 year the third senior society, Wolf's Head
 has been almost notorious in the college
 for the dissolute character of it's men, and
 many have refused election to it. This
 year, however, not an election was reject
 ed and the change in the "set" has caused
 much surprise Several other surprises of marked character, both good and
 bad, were also in store for the college
 In general, the choice is considered good
 though one or two flaws have been picked
 in each society.
 The following is the list of the fortu- nate men:

MILITARY ITEMS.

Spring Parade-Captain Shuster Ex-
 pected to Resign - Decorations fin
 Ansonia in Anticipation of the
 Parade of the Horse Guards.
 The Light Guards, under command of Captain T. Sucher, are to have their spring parade to-day. They will spend the day in drilling and rifle shooting at the range.
 The Blues are to have their field day on Monday. It is expected that the company will soon be obliged to elect 8 successor to Captain Shuster, as several members are of the opinion that the captain has already sent his resignation to the headquarters of the regiment Efforts will be made to in duce Captain Shuster to remain with his command until after the time of the an nual encampment.
 Since the parade of the Horse Guard at Seymour the members of the company have learned that on the day of the parade a number of private residences in Ansonia were elaborately decorated with flags and bunting in anticipation that the cavalry company would pass through Ansonia on the way to Seymour. The Horse Guard did not at any time intend to go by the Ansonia route to Seymour and about ten days in advance of the parade had the lunch ordered at Robert Paynes in Wood bridge. The opinion that the Guard would go through Ansonia was undoubtedly created by an erroneous statement pub lished in one of the New Haven papers on Tuesday,.

 sions.

The report ofsMr. H. E. Farnhainy the assistant snpefintendent in charge pf the students department, shows that forty six students Of the different classes have assisted in Blk different sec- tions of the work. As teachers in the Sun day school, in charge of week-evening meetings, as speakers at the peoples ser vice on Sunday evening, in hospital visit ing and in personal work at the a1mshouse and at the jail, their help has, been in valuable, and made it possible to carry on work that could not otherwise have been attempted. At recent meeting at the seminary of those who had been engaged in city mission work, reports were made from the different branches of the stu- dents' work, with suggestions for the en- largement of some parts of that work, and the expression of wishes to enter even more fully and thoroughly into it during another year. Mr. Otis W. Barker of the junior class will be the assistant-, superin- tendent at the City Missions during part of the seminary vacation in place of MT. Farnham. who is under appointment as general secretary of the Y. M. e. A. at Lock Haven, Pa.

THE MYSTIC sHRInE.

may 25 an Event In the History of
 the Order-The Followers of Ma.
 homet and the Hardy Sons of the
 Desert From the North and the
 East to Invade our City-The Line
 of March. s----~-zsz-z .-
 The advent of the Mystic Shrine in New Haven creates about as much furore as did the now historical Founders Day" few years ago. The affair has grown out of all expectations, and were it not that Fred waldron has his various committees we'll in hand it is more than probable there would be some interruption in the pro gram for next Monday. Although the headquarters of the order for Connecticut are in Bridgeport and most of the mem bsrs are from abroad, all the arrange ments, even to the most minute detail are made in this city. Yesterday the insig- nifcant item of 500 coat checks were sent to New York and the same number to Bridgeport. Mecca temple and Pyramid temple have special train of palace cars This is said not to be for the sake of con- venience or comfort, but from the neces- sity of shielding the paraphernalia from tla gaze or LQ6 WOTlO. NO poI5 5OA Snh AAeAo on this special train but the "True Sons of the Desart," and they will check their own packages and handle their own bag gage.
 The procession is booked to leave the Uniou depot at 2:3O. The route is as fol lows: State to Chapel, to Church, to Elm, to Howe, to Chapel, to the Hyperion. The solemn ceremonies of initiation are expect ed to close at 6:30, when the visitors and local members sit down to a banquet in the rink. This geyer,s they are the guests of Mi. Bunnel for the remainder of the evening. The Hyperion will present a dazzling appearance. In selecting the play "U and I" MT. Bunnell consulted the wishes of Mecca temple. Mr. -Bunneu said last evening: "I do not know wheth- ef it is the shrine or the . comedy that is attracting so much interest in this event, but whatever the cause, the Hyperion will contain one of the most brilliant audiences of the season. ] selected this attraction on recommendation of some of the officers of Mecca temple. AS is we'll known, this body is composed of representative New Workers, men of wealth and culture, whose judgment in the dramatic and musical art carries weight in the metropolis. Individually am as in terested as any outsider can be to see these hundreds of the hardy Sons of the Desert arrayed in their bright-red fez, and ar ranged in tiers about the circles and gal leries."
