In all probpity an effort will be made
by the Yale management to arrange a
football game for next fall with one of
the leading college elevens of the west.
Should the same be done it will be with
the University of Chicago, the Univer-

university. In no case will the Yale
team go west and the game could only
be arranged if an eastern trip should be
taken by one of the above mentioned
teams. All plans for the same are, how

not now be told what the outcome will
be. AS a matter of fact, however, a
baseball game has been practically ar

Obstructionists.

Who are these queer obstructlonists that
would chain the lightnings up,
And make US drink again once more SPANS
medieval cup?
They are past and worn out fossils with
Cleye.and at the head,
And like dried mummes In museum po-
litically dead.
They would check the march Of progress,
and block its shining track,
And on Times glistGning dial put all Its
pointers back.
The army and the navy have done their
splendid work,
And now these would-be statesmen would
make the nation shirk-
The duty, that is plainly marked upon the
And make advancing sentiment an error
and crime
Who are they. are they doing this to make
To place their deeds In history upon the
roll of fame?
If that can be their motive they will surely
never win,
They viii miss fame's silent gateway and
never enter in.
What is our country's glory, Is 1t conquest?
Not at ALL
But the spread of righteous sentiment at the
sound of dutys call.
These half enlightened peoples In those Is
lands of the sea,
Must be taught wiser lesson before they
can be free.
They must first be taught to govern their
own imperfect traits
Before. the boon of freedom can enter at
their gates.
They are sullen now and fractions and in
vengeful state,
A strong firm hand must guide them and
quell their rising hate.
We take no note Of Spanlards, their con-
quering days are past,
And the nations they have conquered have
conquered them at last.
All honor to Mckinley, the nations puising
heart
Has center'd in his noble brain and well
he's borne his part.
Dividing lines have vanished beneath his
virile Deeds
And north and south are welded and follow
where he leads.
All party lines should vanish, and one broad
platform stand, M
While virtue, righteousness and truth
should permeate the land.

MASHED HIS FINGER.

George Hall Smith, a senior in the
Sheffield Scientific school, sustained a
painful injury while practicng the shot
put in the yard in the rear of the gym
nasium yesterday afternoon. He had
picked the shot, which weighs sixteen
pounds. from the ground with his left
hand when he suddenly slipped on the
snow and fell to the ground. The shot
came down in such a manner that it
pinned the index finger of the right
hand to the ground, MASKING it, causing
It to split open for about half an inch.
He suffered considerable pain with it
last night.

THIRTY CANDIDATES


sponded Yesterday.
In response to the call issued by Cap
tain de Saulles for candidates for the
Yale university baseball team yesterday
Afternoon about thirty men met the cap
tain in the trophy room Of the gymna-
SUM at o'clock. This number is not
so large as was expected, but there will
doubtless be at least twenty more can
didates by the time training begins in
earnest. This will be on Thursday, Feb
ruary %. Training at that time and
for several weeks will consist of work
In the cage under the direction of Cap
tain deSaulles, assisted by different
graduate coaches, who will make peri
odical visits to New Haven during
the entire baseball season. OF last years
champion team Captain GreenWay,
First Baseman Hazen, Pitcher Fearey
were graduated last year and their
places will in consequence have to be
supplied. OF these third base will be
the hardest. The most promising can
didate and substitute for this position
last year, Robson of the class of 1901,
has since died. Among the men who
handed in their names yesterday are
several who made excellent records at
their preparatory schools and also OF
last years freshman team. At present
there seems to be plenty of good ma
terial from which a winning team
should be turned out.
