tainment in the YIN. G. A. course Thursday
evening at the hall of the North Baptist
Chnrch, Jersey. avenue and Fourth street,
was a most successful affair. The enter

the well known basso, was the star attrac-

sang. Mr.. Nolan has a clear, well trained
voice, and he knows how to use it, Mrs.

PRINCETON STUDENTS ALARMED.
Faculty Talk About Interfering with
Football Next Season..
Spectds % the JclscU Cay Ncacs.

Special 10 the jersey CITY Ncacs.
TRENTON, Dec. 20, 1S93.-Since Thanks
giving the rumor has been current about the
college that the faculty of Princeton College
intended to take some radical action in the
restriction of college sports before the begin
ming of another athletic season.
College closed Wednesday for the Christ
mas recess with no action taken by the
faculty on the subject of athletics. From
what member of the faculty say, however,
it appears that the students themselves have
saved the big game for next year. Early in
the season the college authorities had begun
to feel that the Thanksgiving game in New
York must go. The students disarmed the
criticism of the faculty this year by their
orderly behaviour o. returning to their
rooms the night of the victory over Yale.
The members of the faculty are especially
pleased with the classroom work done by
the football players. Ward, Ballet, Taylor
and Blake in their college work.
II is pretty well understood that the stu
dents themselves have indicated their right
to another seasons trial. and they will doubt
less be given it.
1t was submitted by one of the college au-
thoIities that the growing r~oughness of foot
ball had been discussed in faculty meetings,
and the question of faculty restriction de-
bated in case the playing rules were not mod
iied by the football authorities.
Action was not taken on the subject
chiefly because the football men themselves
are agitating changes that will eliminate the
rougher and more undesirable features of the
game.
It is said the subject of Intercollegiate
athletics will be again taken up for discus
sion by the college authorities after the
Christmas recess. Changes in the game are
likely to come. They will have the encour-
agement of the Princeton faculty, but they
will be instituted and put through by the
football representatives of the colleges most
concerned.

In speaking of tbs fair Father Hofschuelder
said TO a reporter: 1T is our intention of open
ing the fair soon after the holidays are over.
Had it not been that many OF our
parishioners are out of employ ment hist
year we would have kept the fair open
during the holidays and probably would have
closed it by the first Of the year. It was our
original desire to provide Christmas gifts at a
reasonable figure to those who wanted them,
but many did not seem disposed to maks
presents this year. or else they thought
they had bargains somewhere else.
So our fair had to be closed
as the patronage was small. We stored the
goods away, aud will open about the tenth of
next month. l hope and anticipate that we
shall. clear a good sum to help pay off the debt. y
Speaking of the debit said Father Hof-
seine ider. you might state that the parishion-
ers have taken hold of the matter in a deter
mined way. and have left a comparatively small
amount 1t is altogether gratifying to me and
to all the members of the congregation. In a
short period we hope TO have it all effacsd.''
