NOW UNION LEAGUE

Republican League Members Vote
Unanimously to Change Name.
the members of the Republican league
held special meeting last evening to
vote upon the proposed change of name.
LAS has been stated, it was decided some
time ago that the present name was too
likely to make confusion in certain cases
on account of the number of republican
clubs in the state. The name Union
League was therefore proposed as a
better one.
The suggestion met with favor at once
and a resolution Incorporating the or
ganization under the name of the Union
league was presented to the general as
sembly and recently passed by that
body. The meeting last evening was to
take action upon the resolution This
was unanimously adopted by all present
and the league will be hereafter known
as the Union league.

SENIOR SOCIETY ELECTIONS.
annual ''Tap" Day at Yale-Several
Genuine Surprises.

ANNUAL "Tap" Day at Yale-Several
Genuine Surprises.
"Tap'' day at Yale has again come
and gone and while there are many who
are exultant over the selections of MEM
bers of the class of 1900 to the three
prominent senior societies of the aca-
demic department there are also quite
number who are disappointed. This is
due to several things, but the more es-
pecially because of the many unexpect-
ed selections that were made. 1t has
been many years since so many man who
were not counted upon as strong posi-
bilities have been the recipients of the
honor of being chosen to Skull and
Bones, Scroll and Keyes and VOLTS
Head The selections in the main are
satisfactory but there are many who
are of the opinion that the best and
most worthy men of the class were not
chosen. Among the surprises was the
failure to choose Jesse Dwight Dana, at
present assistant manager of the uni
yersity track team and for two years
fence orator; Alanson Judson Baker, re-
Gently elected president of the Univer-
sity GIee club; Henry Parme1ee Wickes,
who has been on the university crew
( IOT TWO Years, anu pdoCOhi ociAN'oii,
who will in all probability be captain of
the track team next year, were the more
prominent. These men were counted on
as being sure for one of the three socl-
cites Several other things that We're
not booked happened. Thomas Bene-
dict Clarke, Jr., was looked upon as
possibility for Scroll and keyes and
during the excitement attendant upon
the delay in selecting the men he was
overcome by the strain and fainted. lie
was carried to his room by friends ana
after being revived was informed that
he had been chosen for VOLTS Head.
John Sherlock Ferguson of Stockholm,
Sweden, was tapped" by man from
VOLTS Head, but he absolutely refused
to accept the proffered honor. His rea-
sons for the same are not known and
1t is said that he was not looked upon
as even a possibility for either of the
two other societies. There was an I'M
usually large number of spectators on
the campus and they seemed as much
interested in the proceedings as those
who were chosen for the coveted hon
ors. Among the many were several
members of the corporation. The day
was a splendid one and it is about the
first in the last ten years. The men
chosen, those by whom they Were given
and the societies to which they were
chosen are as follows. Skull and Bones,
