RECOLLECTIONS OF LORD NEIL
 

| When Lord Nelson was commanding | the Mediterranean fleet, and was lying off the Spanish coast, the captains of two Spanish frigates, just arrived from America sent to entreat an audience of
 him, merely to give themselves the grat- ification of seeing a person whom they considered to be the greatest seaman in the world. Captain Hardy took their re quest to Lord Nelson and urged him to comply with it. Notwithstanding the admiral's peevish reply of-"What In the world is there to see in an old withered fellow like myself?" he ordered that they should be admitted.
 Lord Nelson always wore short
 brooches and silk stockings, and at that
 moment his legs were bound up at the
 knees and ankles with pieces of brown
 paper soaked in vinegar, and tied on
 with red tape. This had been done to allay the irritation arising from mosqui-
 to bites. Quite forgetting his attire and
 the extraordinary appearance which it presented, Lord Nelson went on deck and conducted the interview with the Spanish captains with such perfect courtesy that his singular appearance was quite obliterated by the charm of his manner and the Spaniards left the ship with their high opinion of him thor oughy confirmed.
 He was very peevish about trif1es, and would sometimes say to Captain Hardy. Hardy, it is very hard that I cannot have my breakfast punctually when order itl"-Mrs Charles Baget in Black woods Magazine.

Dur ing the evening there was a solo by Miss Jessie F. Daniels and selection by quartet from Calvary Baptist church, Misses Platt and Scrimgeour, Messrs. Lincoln and Freeland. The mis- sion hall was we'll filled by an audience that testified by the attention given to their interest in the occasion.

 About a dozen mice were put into a dinner pail belonging to John Schlosser, who did not open it until he was nearly into town on a trolley car. Then the mice jumped out. One ran up his sleeve
 and the rest ran around the car. There
 were some lively times among the fe male passengers and John made some remarks.
 The item in the Ansonia Sentinel that
 the salary of the Rev. MT. Upson, pastor
 of the Plymouth Congregational church.
 had been reduced from $1,500 to $1000
 per year, is denied most emphatically
 by those who are in a position to know.
 At meeting of the Ecclesiastical soci-
 ety of this church. held some time ago,
 the pastor voluntarily donated $500 of
 his salary for the past year. His offer
 was reluctantly accepted by the society. Further than this no action has been taken or considered by the Ecclesiastical society or by Plymouth church.
 The annual meeting of the Young Pso- ples society of St. Peters church was held in the parish house Thursday even- ing.

GEORGETOWN DEFEATS YALE
POOR PLAYING BY YALE TEAM
 LOSES THE GAME.
Cook in the Box Lacked Contro1-Forced in Two Runs-Whtte for Georgetown Pitched Strong Gamc-Game Viewed vNv T.ur her

Before an audience composed of near Ny 800 persons Yale suffered defeat at the hands of Georgetown yesterday. The day, as well as the game, was one of the most miserable seen at the field this season. Yale's playing was as rag ged an exhibition of ball playing as it was possible for her to give. Cook in the box failed utterly at most import ant time, and the playing of the rest of the team was not up to the stand ard. The game up to the fourth inning seemed to point out Yale as winner. Bach in the box for Georgetown was pitching a rather weak game, and his opponents experienced little trouble in finding the ball for safe hits. The score Stood to in Yale's favor at its close, and Yale's hopes beat high.
 In the next inning, though, all was changed. Cook seemed to lose his pre- vious control and with three men on base forced in two runs A two-base hit by Mccarthy then netted two more runs for Georgetown, and finally a hit to Camp, followed by his wild throw to the plate let in two runs. The inning closed with five more runs to George towns credit and the score to four in kheir favor.
 Although Yale tried hard after this to overcome this lead she was unable to do so, and Georgetown maintained 1t to the end.
 The score:

PLUCKY FRESHMEN.
The Annual Omega Lambda Chi Cele-
 bration.

The freshman class of 1902 will go
 posed of men of an unusual amount of nerve and pluck. Last night at seven | o'clock occurred the annual Omega Lambda Chi celebration, or freshman rush. This is an event to which all members of the upper classes look for ward to with considerable interest es- | pecially if any of the members of the | freshman class have made themselves obnoxious in greater or less degree. | This occasion affords one and all an opportunity to "get even" with the fresh freshmen, and about five hundred members of the university took advan tage of the same last night. At seven o'clock the members of the senior class formed in line at the fence and proceed ed to march around the campus. The juniors sophomores and freshmen fell in in the order named, and then began the annual visit to all the dormitories on the campus. A pause was made in front of each one, and the long Yale cheer was given, with the name of the building on the end.
 This part of the ceremonies properly over, the members of the three upper classes formed a gauntlet between Dwight and Alumni halls and extend ing across the campus to the sophomore fence. When the word was given the freshmen started through the gauntlet at full speed. This progress was some what retarded, however. owing to the fact that they were the recipientS of numerous kicks, cuffs and other rough whacks. They went through in good style, however, and when all was over they gave their class yell with commen- dable vigor.
 There will doubtless be several mem- bers of the class that will experience the feeling of partaking of their meals off mantelpiece for several days.
