CLUBS WE'RE ST. PAUL GUESTS
YESTERDAY.
SOCIETY DID THEM HONOR,
SHOWING NO LACK OF ATTENTION
TO THE YOUNG COLLEGIANS
WHILE HERE.
Last Nights Programme Was a Fit
ting Climax for a Day of
General Joy.

Society devoted herself exclusively
yesterday to Yale and the entertain
ment of the men of the Glee and Banjo
clubs. Summit avenue homes floated
the Yale colors, and society maids and
matrons gave the visitors a pleasant
welcome. Even the weather man was
Kind and the weather was sunny all
day. Entertainment of various kinds
had been arranged for the day, and at
s o'clock a brilliant fashionable gather
ing, composed mostly of wives, sisters
and sWeethearts of Yale men, and ST.
Paul Yale alumni, filled the Peoples
church on Pleasant avenue and devoted
two hours to the enjoyment of high
class and popular programme of vocal
banjo and mandolin music, given with
a swing and spirit peculiar only to col
lege boys. Each particular soloist gave
his own particular stunt" and the
final song on the programme was joined
in by all of the old college men pres
ent. One of the especial hits of the
evening was an original stunt" by
Mr.. Sheehan and the club, and con-
sisted Of a comical trill with which
each word of the song was pronounced,
the effect being laughable. Mr.. Shee-
han was recalled again and again. An
ether catchy thing was a quartette
number by Messrs. Schneider, Butler,
Wadsworth and McLauchlan. The
latter pair were exceedingly funny. The
soloists were all of them good and the
numbers by the banjo club were warm
ly received. Following the concert
Mrs. E. N. Saunders gave a large re-
ception at her home on Summit avenue
The floors were covered with canvas
for dancing and the visitors and st.
