Yale's Ex-Presidcnt Expires at New Haven
-Great Work as an Educator.
New HAVEN, Conn, March 5.-Dr.
Noah Porter, ex-president of Yale col
lege, died Friday. DR.. Porter has
been in feeble health ever since an at
tack of the grip and pneumonia early
in January, and his death is the direct
result of his illness at that time.
DR.. Porter vas most generally known
to the public perhaps, as the principal
editor Of some revised editions of Web
ster's dictionary of which Merriam &
Co. are the publishers, but this was
only part and by no means the most
important part of his great work as an
educator
: The greatest progress made by Yale
in the entire period of it's existence was
during DR.. Porter's presidency from
1871, when he succeeded Theodore
D. Woolsey, to 1885, when he re-
signed. Some of the finest buildings
of the institution were erected during
this period, including the art school,
the Peabody museum, the new theo-
logical schools and the Sloane
physical laboratory. The curric-
ulum was also considerably en-
larged, especially by the iDtroduc
ton of elective studies, although not at
any sacrifice of the required course, of
which DR.. Porter was always an earn
est champion as opposed to the elective
system as it has been ella borated at Yale.
= His best known work as an author is
that on the Human Intellect" which
is used as text book at Yale and
many other educational institutions
throughout the country. In 1885 he
prepared a life of Bishop Berkeley, fol-
lowed the next year by 'Kant's Eth
les, Critical Exposition"
DIR. Porter came OF a remarkab BILE
family. His father, after whom he
was named, was a distinguished
clergyman and his brother Samuel and
sister Sarah were both prominent edu-
Gators, the latter being the founder of
the young ladies' seminary at Farm
ington, Conn. 1t was at Pennington

Hungry WOrkingmen In the City OF Dant
zic Take by Force Food Which They
Have Not the Means to purchase.
BERLIN, March 5. A dispatch from
Dantzic the capital of western Prus-
sia, says that serious rioting, similar
to that which took place recently in
this city, has occurred there. AS in
Berlin, the trouble was caused by the
large number Of people out of work.
The troubles at Dantzic, like the
troubles at Leipsic and many other
places, began by a mass meeting of
the unemployed, by fiery addresses
made by agitators and by heated sug-
gestions upon the part of socialistic
orators. A delegation was then
appointed to call upon the chief local
magistrate, who informed the delega-
ton that the local authorities, antici
pating some such visit, had taken steps
to provide relief works upon which
the most needy of the unem-
ployed could find work. The delega-
ton then withdrew and later in
the day some 200 men from the unem-
ployed masses of Dantzic were en-
barked on board a steamer, chartered
by the local authorities, and were
taken up the river to the spot where the
relief works were situated.
After the departure of the steamer
the angry feeling which animated the
hungry army of unemployed laborers
began to obtain the upper hand of
them. There was much shouting
and swearing, many bitter things
said about the emperor and then the
socialist and anarchist orators began
to harangue the crowds, telling them of
their wrongs, of the oppression of the
government, and of the cruel bear
ing of the emperor, with the result
that no sooner was the now familiar
Bread! Give us bread or give us
work. raised by the agitators than a
mob of about 1000 men spread them
selves in detachments over the neigh
borhood and pillaged number of
baker and butcher shops, which were
completely gutted of their contents.
Then there was a strange scene. I'm
mense piles of stolen meat and bags of
flour were gathered at convenient spots
and the work of equal distribution
began. Sturdy rioters guarded these
stores of provisions, while others
measured out the meat and -four to
the starving men, Each man was
asked how many people he had in his
family, and upon the number being
given, he was handed a piece of meat
and a measure or two of flour, accord.
ing to the needs of his household
While the work of distribution was
going on skirmishing parties of rioters
were keeping the police at bay by pelt-
ing them with stones or charg-
ing bodily upon them and driving
the authorities from the scene of the
riot Other skirmishing parties emptied
wine stores, grocery stores, and other
places where food and drink was to
be had, until every man among the ri
oters had laid in stock of provisions
of some kind or another.
