nTbe vale Man up to Date, "

charming little volume is the new hook hv Miss Jean Pardee of this city entitled, "The Yale Man Up to Date " The little work is creating a big sensa- tion and such was the demand for 1t yesterday in this city that at one of the leading book stores the large number of copies placed on sale in the morning were all sold long before night. The book is delightfully."- bound, and its typo graphical appearance, and many illus trations, are capital. Miss Pardee is to congratulated upon the book in all re- spects. Its contents is piquant, bright and readable throughout.
 The book is composed of two parts, the first raising the curtain on the life of the Yale man with such necessary accessories as "the college widow, "the New Haven f1irt, ''the out-of-town girl" 'the Pennington girl etc., and the second part consisting of clever sketches of certain camp followers dear to the hearts of Yale men everywhere Pop" Smith, "Davy," Hannibal Tom my Kilbride, Joe Wipper, the college postman and others.
 The cover of the book bears the Yale seal in gold, as well as the title in fac simile of the authors characteristic handwriting The illustrations which bear out the text are all novel, and faithfully depict persons, places and types closely identified with Yale life Reproductions from photographs of "Mory's" and the Vienese room at Traeger's, where the students are won't to assemble for jovial intercourse, are among the illustrative features.
 The volume is entirely of home pro- duction, the letter press being the work of the Price Lee 6S Adkins company, and the illustrations by Yale men and New Haven artists ,#

 Hartford, Jan. 14-In an interview published in the Hartford Post this af. ternoon the Rev. Henry H. Kelsey. pas- tor of the Fourth church, Dr. Horace Bushnell's old pastorate, who is chan. lain of the First regiment, c. N. C.. con- firms the statements made regarding dissipation at Camp Bradley. Mantle. last August He says.
 'The state pays the members of the National Guard to go into military school at camp once a year, and not to go on a weeks bum"
 He declares he has seen the debauch- cry of camp life and the orgies, and has noted their effect upon the men, and that the state camps, as they have been conducted, are an abomination and a disgrace to the state. On the subject of reforming the guard he says that he would begin at the top with the gov- ernor's staff and not have them in camp at all. He is in favor of regimental en- campments. The colonels would then have more direct control over their men. He would have officers set the men an example by reducing their con- sumption of liquor, which, he says, is now enormous. He thinks that most of the inefficiency in camp is due to the familiarity between officers and men. He would abolish all excursions of cit- izens to camp, which make it scene of revelry and give it the appearance of fair instead of military camp. MT. Kelsey favors a legislative investi- gation and says that all assertions re- garding drinking, revelry and dissipa- ton at camps of the National Guard can be fully proven by indisputable tes- timony.

LOW AGAIN BREAKS LOOSE.
SHE AND CONSORT, THE RINGLE4D- ER, CAUGHT ANOTHER STORM.

Three Survivors Taken Into the Llfeboat
 and Carried to Fire Island Inlet-Two of
 Those on Board Were Lost and the Cap-
 tain Hurt.
 Fire Island, N. Y, Jan. 14.-The coal barge Seth Low couple of weeks aga broke loose from her tow in the storm off Fire Island while en route from Bos- ton for Philadelphia, and was severely buffeted by the heavy sea and high winds before being picked up and lowed to New York in safety.
 Yesterday she started for Boston coal laden, in company with the barge Ring~ leader, and in tow of the steamer San- tuit. These three vessels were together when the first storm was encountered at which time the Ringleader reached port. After passing out to sea Sunday afternoon, and when the three vessels were about twenty miles east of the ligthship, the Seth Low broke away from the other vessels the mishap being caused by a heavy gale, It was impossible for the Santuit or Ringleader to pick her up during the night Her rudder broke, and she became unman- ageable. At 2 o'clock this morning she stranded on the outer bar off Short Beach, When discovered by the patrol she was under water, only part of her bow and cabin being visible and they were washed by every big sea.
 The crew of five were clinging td the top of the cabin and 1t seemed ss though they were beyond human aid. The night was bitter cold and their sufterings were intense. The life sav- ing crew from Zack's Inlet and tive othvr crews arrived on the scene ard set to work to rescue the unfortunate men ?It was impossible to launch q boat and after trying with the mortar to throw lines over the barge it was necessary to abandon this method of procedure also as the lines either broke or fell short. Finally during the after- noon Captain Chichester and the other members of the life crews succeeded in launching a boat and after battling against odds reached the barge OnIy three of the five men of the Lows crew were there, two having been swept away by the waves. These latter two hard clung to the roof until within thirty minutes of the time that the rescuers came to the aid of the suffer- CTS The three survivors could not have held out much longer They were taken into the lifeboat and were car- ried to Fire Island Inlet and landed alt 2;+5 p. m. The saved are:
 Captain B. N. Doddridge, Charles Brown and B. Ellison Those lost are: A. Doddridge 0the captains son) and Joe Johnson.
 Captain Doddridge was badly hurt. having been struck by the falling rig ging of the barge last night. The other two men are none the worse for their experience All three are now at the Oak Island station.
 When the captains son was washed overheard his father seemed to give up and made no attempt to cling to the capni. Twice he was washed away, put was pulled back by the others.

 Debate.

a Debate. Paris, Jan. 14,-In the chamber of dep, uties to-day M. MilIeraud, socialist, ir view of the resignation of M Barthou minister of public works, raised an in. terpellation in regard to the guarantees of interest upon railway shares under the convention of 1883. M. Milleraud reproached the ministry for their fail. ure to support M. Barthou in demand. ing limit to the guarantees and pro- posed that the chamber appoint a com. mission of inquiry to decide whether M Raynal, formerly minister of public works, should be prosecuted.
 M. Raynal replied to M. Milleraud's s speech, but his remarks were extremely temperate. M. Raynal assented to the proposal to appoint commission of in- quiry
 Premier Dupuy explained the position of the ministers and held that M Bar thou's resignation was needless.
 The chamber then voted on the ques- tion of appointing a committee and the proposal was carried, 253 to 225
 
 resolution inviting the government to vigorously defend the rights of the state in dealing with the railway convention.
 The chamber voted, 2S3 to 23i, to give priority to the proposal of M. Pourquery De Boisserin over all other orders of the day.
 Premier Dupuy declared that the min istry would resign if the vote was in- sisted upon, whereupon the chamber reversed its decision by vote of 264 to 246.
 M. Dupuy held that the chamber in giving priority to such a resolution showed a want of confidence in the min istry, hence the reversal of the cham ber's decision.
 At five minutes past seven o'clock the chamber by a vote of 263 against 241, rejected a resolution offered by M. Ire lat approving the governments conduct throughout in dealing with the railway conventions and also approving the governments Association from the acts of M Barthou.
 Premier Dupuy then ascended the tri- bune and said;
 After this vote the chamber must un- derstand that the cabinet cannot con- tinue to participate in it's delibera- tions."
 The ministers then left the chamber in Indian file and proceeded to the pal ace of the Elysee and tendered their resignations to President Casimir-Per- fer The chamber then adjourned until Saturday,

 Norwich, Conn.,, Jan. 14,-To the sur prise even of the counsel in the Johnson case Andrew Johnson, the petitioner to have a conservator appointed over his mother, Mrs Mary T. Johnson, af- ter agreeing to the terms of settlement declared this morning before Judge Carter that never since the case began had he for moment thought he would accept any proposals for settlement, Solomon Lucas, one of his lawyers, did not appear in court, and it is reported has withdrawn from the case. His other lawyer, Mr. Thayer. said he had nothing to say, except that he would as soon go into the forest and try to drive wild animal as to drive his client" Governor Waller, representing Mrs Johnson, said;
 Tt might be advisable to name a conservator appointed to look after An drew Johnson"
 Lawyer Brandagee said: "The agree ment was made by Andrew Johnsons counsel, and they had beens notified the case had been settled satisfactorily and copy of the agreement had been forwarded to him. Now we see Andrew Johnson back out, raise a curtain and display a wretched home to satisfy the putrid curiosity of the public If this agreement was satisfactory to him and his counsel God be merciful ito him and them before they get out of this court again.

Second Lecture in Course at the United
 Church Chapel.

Church Chapel
 The second lecture of the course on the "History of Fiction" delivered before the New Haven University Bx- tension Center by Dr. Richard Burton was well attended by an interested and appreciative audience, After recapi- tulation of the first lecture Dr. Burton began with study of the analytic novel. tie modern novel, which he de- fines as a picture of the social life Of man. Richardson and Fielding, the authors of Pamela" and From Jones" were the fathers of the analytical novel, Exaggerated and Nundeserved praise, he said have been showered upon these two writers by critics whose pre1udices seem to be stronger than' their acumen Richardson and Field ing were generalissimos in the march of literature; they were important fac tors in the development of fiction, and they have given us pictures of men and manners such as we find nowhere else.
 MT Burton then analysed the plots of some of Richardson's novels, and read selected passages showing the false and mawkish sentimentality of these much-praised though long drawn out and even ridiculous stories. Some of Lady Mary Montague's witty witti- cisins were also read
 Fielding was characterized as kindly satirist; his pictures of society are slnged with satire, and therefore are not to be accepted as altogether faithful pictures. He wrote Joseph Andrews" to ridicule Richardson's Pamela,' and this very evident inteu- ton was a source of much offence to tie elder author, who could never abide the name of Fielding thereafter Fielding was not felicitious in bis comedy there is life and sparkle here but the tone of evrything is low.
 Dr. Burton warned his audience against trusting to the indiscriminate praise cf these writers, and quoted from the wiser judgments of Sidney I.anier and Lowell The lecture abounded with wit, sharp satire, and keen criticism. eIn spite of the general interest in the lecture no discussion followed the audience seeming to be entirely satisfied with Dr. Burton's lively presentation of the subject though some exceptions were made in private that might have added still more to the manifest interest.
