THE YALE LIT. BANQUET.

A Brilliant Success Last Evening l Handsome Menu Cards-A Part of One Side of Zeta Psi Chapter House | Falls Down-Other Notes of College l s Interest.
 The Yale lit.- board had it's ffty-fifth an nual banquet at Redcliffe's, last night, and enjoyed one of the finest on record. The menu was most elaborate in it's make up. On the outside front was raised gilt imi- tation of the Chi Delta Theta pin on a shaded background of electric blue. The shape of the menu was that of the Chi Delta Theta pin-triangular- the whole bound in blue. The first page was a fac-simile of the Yale Lit cover, the second the date and occasion, the third being the menu proper, the fourth and fifth being devoted to the list of toasts, the sixth the records of the outgoing and incoming board, and the seventh to the list of invited guests The back cover was perfectly plain, and the whole affair was the work of Dreka of Philadelphia. It will make a valuable souvenir. The toasts were as follows:
 s'Yale'' Albert Lee College Colioouiaiisms; E. T. Mclaughlin Society as I Have Found It It.........S. W. Childs The Art of Killing Space ..... Luther H. Tucker The Waste Basket. ...... .Grosvenor Atterbury Our Room Mates. ;;.................G. @. B. Hoppin Our Contrib4tors. ors.................A;G c; Robinson The Village Parson. F. I.

 Yale's latest Junior society building, Zeta Psi, suffered quite serious blow yes terday in the accident which happened the The outer wall of terra cotta Perth Amboy brick on the north or Wall street side of the structure caved in at the top, leaving the inner wall of plain brick and mortar uncovered. The gap extends the whole length of the building and for distance of about 8 feet from the top, and it is ex- pected that more of the wall will tumble ! in. None of the inside of the secret hall will be exposed, as the main wall is all right.
 The building has been completed but 6 short time and cost about $1O,OOO. II will be repaired by the builders, G. D. & -1 --I no blame could attach to them in the case, as the cause of the trouble was a matter that they had explicitly pointed out and gave notification of when erecting the building. The cause of the trouble was the large circular holes left at the balistrade all along the building for orna mentation near the cornice. During the recent heavy rain storm much water was driven by the gale into these circular holes and worked down between the two courses of brick A cold snap followed and the water be- tween the walls of bricks froze solid and by expansion, forced out the outer wall causing the sad break. How much more of the building will suffer from this cause remains to be seen, but immediate steps will be taken to remedy the matter. The firm stated that, in short, strength had been sacrificed in the case for ornamenta ton.
