Yale News.

The athletic alumni have been we'll represented during the last week, Bob Cook
 making his long expected visit to the crew,
 while Charlie Sherril and Co1e have been
 coaching the candidates out at the field for
 tho Mott Haven team; and last of all,
 Goldie, the well known trainer of the N.
 Y. A. 0. coming to criticiee and advise the
 Yale vaulters, shot putters and jumpers.
 The principal result of Bob Cooks visit
 visible just now is the retention of Sanford
 on the crew. His magnificent physique has attracted Cook just as it did Corbin
 last fall, and in spite of his swkwardness
 and the air of rawness which is plainly
 visible in his stroke Sanford will probably
 make the crew. If not the Mott Haven
 team is waiting to receive him with open
 arms as their main hope in the quarter
 mile. That brings up the weakest point
 in tho Mott Haven team this year, the 40
 yard run. There is not a man in training
 now who can do quarter in 56 and 51 is
 hardly low enough to win place I n9wsdays .S;s There are now
 will be weeded out in the final selection of
 the team, yet there will be far larger
 team this year than ever before. Several
 of the men are now laid up with attacks
 of spring fever, but all of them will prob-
 ably be in good condition before vacation is over. This :s the first year that the team has been made to stay during vaca- tion, but this is necessitated this, season | by the early date of the Yale-Hsrvard games, which will come of on the 21st of May. The men will be allowed to leave FF16nv Rffapn0Nr, fhAry vxyS1l 1xyI Monday. In the baseball team Cole and Carter will probably be the final choice for the battery. Carter is now being kept on first base, mainly on Murphy 's account, as 1t is absolutely necessary for the di- minutive captain, on account of his peculiar build, to have 6 high mark to throw at. Highlands, the Har- yard prodigy, is not feared as much now | as when he first appeared on the diamond, as the men who are best qualified to as- | ssrt that he is easily rattled and not to be | depended on for a critical game. Norton | ts a fixture on second and will make . fit | succession to Calhoun.

The New Haven team will beat Provi- dence to-day if the weather permits. As snow shoes were not included in the order on the very effective uniforms that ar rived last night, the game may have to be postponed. Manager Burnham is "saw- ing wood" and will bring here strong ag- gregation. Judging from the increased in terest taken in baseball this year and the curiosity felt to see how the home team will play, the game will surely attract 8 large crowd.
 Reserved seat tickets will be placed on sale this morning at Heublein's cafe, Jones' cigar store on Church street and F. B. BrilIs drug store on Grand avenue. Seats will be held for purchasers until 3:15 After that hour they will be sold.
 As First Baseman Morrissey could not get here for to-day's game Manager Shan non has secured Theisen, who played here last season, to play the bag until Morris sey reports. The team as it will play to- day will probably be as follows: Gruber and Fournier, pitchers; Wells, catcher; Theisen, first base; Shannon, second; Don. nelly, third; Blsnsfeld, shortstop; Beech CT, left field; Murphy, center, and Cassian, !, right. Griffin is expected to play in the game on Saturday.
 The Providence team will comprise the following named players. who have arrived or notified Manager Burnham that they will report at the grounds: Pitchers, Kilroy and O'Connell; catchers, Murphy and Ryan; first base, Sid Farrar; second base, Reddy Mack; third base, Charlie Far rel or Petit; short stop, Leo Smith; field CTS, Hornung, Pettit or Leighton and Friel Several directors ot the Providence clut will accompany the team on the trip here Manager Burnham is making strenuous efforts to secure Pitcher Coughlin, who has been released from the New Yorks Since the Albany meeting he has been negotiating with Coughlin, and he hal received telegram from him stating that if he signs with the Eastern league he will prerer to play in Providence President White has agreed to assigr Coughlin to Providence if he can be se cured. Several other clubs have called upon President White to sign Coughlir for them.
 The stockholders can get their seaso, tickets by applying at the ticket office @ the field this afternoon. Jimmie Kell, ! will probably be the umpire.

AT mERwIN,s POINT.

Soon the Season Will open The | Many New Improvements - Eight | New Cottages-The Point Improve ment Association old Segment Rock. One of our most popular summer suburbs is at Woodmont on the New York division of the Consolidated railroad. Twenty-three regular passenger trains stop at this station daily and two lines of stages convey passengers to the settle ments at Oyster River, Brighton Bluffs and Merwin's Point.
 These settlements have grown together, forming one community and lining the shore with about sevsnty-fve attractive cottages.
 These are owned and occupied during the warm months by families from New Haven, Hartford, Meriden, Wsllingford, Waterbury, Seymour, Ansonia. Derby, Southington, Boston and New York. One important reason for it's popularity is tho absence of mosquitoes from the vicinity. Another is that the lots were sold with a clause forbidding the sale of liquor. Eight new cottages are being built this season. Among the owners are Senator Joseph R. Hawley of Hartford, and the following from New Haven: Treadwell Smith, superintendent of police; Lewis Geiger, manufacturer of gilt mouldings; Robert Fields, the joiner, and s. P. New ton of the Diamond Match company.
 Mir. A. Y. Beach of Seymour Is also building cottage. The modern hotels are the Bonsilene and the Pembroke. The old hotel at Merwin's Point, formerly kept by ''Uncle'' Mark Merwin, continues to be a popular place. Many strings of fine fish have been caught of those ragged rocks Just east of the point proper is a high rock known ns Salt Works point, or Seg- l ment Rock.
 On this rock for two or three genera tions has been a large post; this was relic of the old salt works. At the beginning o1 this century wind mill and pump elevated the sea water into large troughs, or svapo rating pans on wheels. These pans wer' kept under sheds. but wheeled out into the sunshine when favorable. These work were crippled or destroyed by the British in the war of 1872. Visitors in recon years have seen this rock ornamented c by huge white triangle or segment, coast mark for the boundary lines of tn, Connecticut fish commission.
 About eight years ago the cottager formed an association known as Merwin' Point Improvement association. This as sociation has grown in importance, ant now numbers more than sixty owners. employs 8 contractor who removes th, garbage daily, and the contents of eartl closets two or three tmes Q week, makini it the cleanest shore resort along our coast
 This association has secured greatly i'm proved roads in that vicinity, and is de termined to prevent illegal liquor traffic A meeting of the association has beer called to-day Fridsy) for that purpose It will be held at the Cannon cottage il front of Segment Rock, at p. m. Whe1 the much talked of electric road is il operation it will render the locality nor accessible, and provide a delightful rid along the shore of the sound.
