,
 An Election Esteemed the Greatest Under
 graduate Honor.
 The annual tapping of members of , the junior class elected to the senior societies took place at the fence at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
 As an election to one of these socie- ties Is accounted one of the greatest honors of college l1fe 'attainable by the whole body of undergraduate students, the interest aroused 1s naturally very great There Is always great deal Of speculation as to whom the lucky stu- dents will be- Sometimes the expected happens, aHd sometimes there are sur prises. There were great many more prominent men in '96 than usual, so that it was difficult to predict those who would receive the welcome tap" The elections are said to be generally satisfactory.

 It was remarked as a very unusual proceeding not to elect the chairman of he board of editors of the Yale Liter ary Magazine to any senior society. Chauneey w. Wells is the present chair nan of the Lit. In one of his articles 1e opposed sophomore societies, and it 8 said to be on this account that he is with society men. Hoyt was tapped for Bones, but re- used and was later tapped for Keys. Ie was entirely overcome with emotion when he refused Bones Trudeau refused Keys and went to Bones. Samuel Thorne refused Wolf's Head and went to Bones. Clark's election to Wolf's Head was as he was member of no unior society. He was prominent in he Yale union, a debating organfza ion.
 Treadway made Bones in spite of the act that he belonged to no junior so- iety. He was a member of Q freshman ecret society," however.
