WARFARE OF CLASSES.

Modern Football Mere Play to Yale's Old
Freshman-SophOmore Struggle.
The organization and development of
intercollegiate athletics now absorb
much of the energy that used to be
given to the furious internecine warfare
OF classes. From time immemorial there
were mighty games of football on the
New Haven green, in which whole
classes engaged. The freshmen posted
their formal challenge on the bulletin
of lyceum, and the supercilious accept
ance of the sophomores named the day
for the struggle Come" cried the
class of 80,
And like sacrifices in their trim
To the fire eyed maid of smoky war.
All hot and bleeding will we offer you.
And the Tyrteus of SO cheered his
mates with the noble lines:
Let them come on, the baseborn crewl
Each soil stained churl-alackI
What gain they but splitter skull
A sod for their base backl
On the bloody day appointed both
sides massed in heavy column with Ma
poleonic tactcis, while the New Haven
fathers surrounded the field. When the
round leather ball was kicked, 400 men
clashed together in frantic, showing,
dusty, roaring chaos, the one side striv-
ing to kick the ball to the Chapel street
fence, the other to force it to the steps
of the statehouse. Swift runners hung
upon the outskirts to seize the ball
chance directed to their feet, and hurry
it amid full gazing applause to the goal.
But it was in the middle press where
deeds were uncrowned, where shirts be-
came streamers and rib squeezed rib
until they cracked, that the heroes of
war and the college bully were to be
found. From this Titanic struggle the
degenerates Of today have evolved the
emasculated game which they call foot
ball, wretched sort of parlor pastimel
Judge Henry E. Rowland in Scrib-
ner's.

DIVISION OF NEW YORK sTATE

It is said that among the first bills to be introduced in the New York legislature Sill be ore providing for a new state by permitting constitutional amendment to be passed and approved by the United States government di- vorciDg sixteen counties of the state and including them in what shall be known as the state of Manhattan. The plan proposed is for the counties of New York, Kings, Queens, Richmond, Suffolk, Westchester, Orange, Put. nam, Columbia, Duchess, Ulster, Greene, Rockland, Albany, Rensselaer, and part of Schoharie, to be formed into one state, with n population of 3,902. .220, as compared with 2.63l. l23 m the forty-four remaining counties, This would make the new state of Manhattan the second largest state in the Union in regard to population, Pennsylvaaia alone exceeding 1t.
 The remaining counties left to com prise the state of New York would make state the sixth largest in the Union, exceeded only in population by Pennsylvania, Manhattan, Illinois, Ohio and Missouri. The new state would have territory in its sixteen counties of s960 square miles, as com. pared with territory containing forty-four counties of 40,493 square miles.
