BasToy. dec. 1.-The speech OF Presi-
dent Eliot Of Harvard university al mass
meeting in Cambridge. IN which he stated
that @'he was a moderate eirinker and did
nas believe in prohibition has created a
great hnbbuh among the iso-lieease zslvo-
eates in this city. Rev. Dr. Banks, In q
sermon last night, took for his text, Wine
i mocker In the course of his re-
marks he said that there wasn't drunk
ard in Boston but what had started OUT
with President Eliors iaea Of being a
moderate Grinker. IL was not to be woa-
deresi at that Harvard students appeared
from time 10 time in the police courts for
drunkenness and ruwdyisIn.
The example Of a moderate drinking
college president must in the very nature
Of things produce dlrunkaris among the
students. Men who stand in positions Of
influence and power owe ii to the youth
ho are growing up about them TO give
out no false light along this treacheroEs
coast Of intoxicating drinks. 1t Is too late
IN the day for college president TO stand
with Gains question on his lips, Am |
my brothers keeper"

Enterprisiug tradesmen, in the dis tribution of their circulars, are not backward in utilizing the lists of dis tirguished persons which are printed in the newspapers from time to time, says the New York Times. Not infre- quently do they get hold of the names of men who long since passed over to that undiscovered country" and cir culars and prospectuses are mailed to the dead as well as to the living. It would seem that a name once enrolled on tradesman's mailing list is never erased. Circular letters addressed to Samuel J. Tilden" are still occasion ally left at the Gramercy park man sion, and mail matter addressed to w. H. Vanderbilt reaches the Grand Cen tral station every now and then. Many clubmen have recently received from shirtmaker what purports to be an autograph letter, saying: "l am anA, ious to have you for customer, ana ! want to make you sample shirt free oi charge.

THE STORM.
Its Effects Less Serious Than at
 First Reported.

Its Effects Less Serious Than at
 First Reported.
 Reports from various parts of the territory yesterday showed that the rain Thursday night had been pretty general.
 No additional accounts of damage by the storm were received. On Friday afternoon there was a terrific rainfall beginning five miles west of the city. The country was flooded but no damage was done. Farther west the rain seem ed to have been more copious and roads were nearly impossible.
 The Agua Fria stage came in on time last night contrary to expectation and the driver said that the water in the streams had abated almost as suddenly as it had risen. The Wickenberg stage also got away in good order.
 Repairs were completed on the Mari. copa & PhGnix and the train pulled out after delay of forty.eight hours. Al noon yesterday the west bound South. ern Pacific which had been delayed this side of Pantano, passed Maricopa, and later in the day No. 10, which had lain up beyond Yuma, also passed the june. tion, so that if the Maricopa X PheniS gets through in good order there will be an inundation of mail matter this morning.
