YALE'S BIZ

The Yale Alumni Weekly prints a
long and severe editorial criticism of the
Yale bi-centennial celebration committee
for failing to give the bi-centennial pro-
gramme to the newspapers, and, instead,
announcing it through the speech of Prof
Woolsey at the Boston alumni meeting
The editorial says that that one action
smacks Of the old exclusive, secret meet
ing, purely personal conception Of Yales
status, and a reprehensible lack of de-
sire to acknowledge her relations to the
public
Sixty-fve prominent Yale graduates,
representing thirty-one classes, have
signed an address to Yale alumni in
favor of the election of Henry F.
Dimock, Yale '63, of New York city. to
the vacancy in the corporate to be
created by the retirement of F. J. Kings
bury. Most of the signers live in New
York city or neighborhood.
The latest name heard in connection
with the corporation vacancies is that of

Thatcher II, Of New York city, is ex-
pected to be one of the prominent cor

Taft of the United States court of ap-
peals was often mentioned as candi-
date for the corporation, but at last re-
ports from him he was disinclined to

at 8 o'clock in the morning and again

| sire Of the coaches and captain to give
| the men some experience in rowing on
the harbor, but there was too much ice
to permit of the same being done and
the tank was used. The regular coach,
DR.. Gallaudet, was assisted by Captain
Payne Whitney of last years crew, j.
o. Rodgers 9S, Cross of the '96 crew,
and ex-Captain Brewster There are at
present thirty men in the squad, the
number having been recently reduced.
The freshmen crew candidates were
also given extra work yesterday and the
men had the benefit of being coached
by some of the graduate coaches.
Gil" GreenWay, captain Of last years
champion baseball nine, and Captain
Keator Of the '97 nine were hard at work
in the baseball cage yesterday afternoon
assisting Captain deSaulles in coaching
the candidates for the freshmen nine.
The men trying for the positions of
pitcher and catcher We're given especial
attention There are a number of very
promising candidates. The candidates
for the university nine will report for
their first practice to Captain deSaulles
this afternoon.
1t is quite likely that the university
basket ball team will play several more
games this season after the one with
the Cornell team, which Is to be played
next Saturday night in Poughkeepsie.
The manager of the Yale team is nego-
tiating for games with the team from
the Springfield, Mass Training school
and the Cleveland Y. M. c. A. team of
Brooklyn. The dates for these games
will be February % and March A.

dates Given Double Work.

dates Given Double Work.
Freshmen, seniors and Juniors to the
number of about one thousand partici-
pated in the annual SNOWFALL fight yes
terday with the members of the sopho-
more class as their opponents. AS is
we'll known, the sophomores don high
hats and proceed to parade around the
center of the city in honor of Wash
| ington's birthday. The occasion is one
! which causes what class feeling there
may be to rise and much amusement is
| afforded in consequence. Yesterday
morning, as usual, the members of the
class of 1901 to the number of about
two hundred met at the fence and after
a short march around the campus went
out into Chapel street. Some Of the
principal stores We're visited and then
the marchers proceeded up through the
Green. When opposite Osborn hall the
members Of the three other classes sal
lied forth and the fight was on in earn
est. The snow was just in prime con-
dition and the white missiles flew thick
and fast. After fighting for about If
teen minutes the sophomores made a
bold dash for the campus, where they
took up their stand behind a large pile
of snow just in front of Battell chapel.
Here the battle ragged for at least a
half hour when the sophomores, over
come by the superior numbers, were
forced to retreat into Elm street Some
of the fighting was hand to hand and
number of bloody noses and black eyes
were received. The high hats were in a
sorry plight. There was not one of them
but that had been smashed in by
SNOWFALL and many of them We're stolen
by members of the other classes. The
freshmen were warned by the faculty
that severe measures would be taken If
the sophomores were interfered with
and 1t is quite likely that the baseball
team or crew will be taken away. The
faculty is intent upon dispensing with
these fights and the best way is to pun
ish the offenders severely. A number
Of windows in Battell chapel and Durfee
were broken during the melee.
The candidates for the university
crew were given double work yesterday.
They were out and at work in the tank

A. Brotherhood of Silence With Lot Of
Queer Fads That Flourlshes in Chica-
go.
One of the oldest anomalies among the
many queer so-called semi-religious or
CARNATIONS of Chicago Is Brotherhood
of Silence, composed mainly of women.
The Prophets School of the Brother
hood of Silence has just been incorpora
ted at Springfield, and Is situated at
Room 1888, Athenaeum building. It's prin-
cipal object, as stated in it's papers of
incorporation, is the study Of the princi-
pies and teachings Of Aum, whatever
they may be. The projectors Of the
school claim that one hundred and for
ty-eight students have been enrolled
within three months, and are now be-
ginning to speak of the institution as a
college.
A few of the things that this institu-
ton modestly claims to teach are "all
the mysteries of human life, proof of the
GNlSlGuCe III lIldH Ol ali Immortal SOUL,
clairvoyance, magnetism and the heal
ing art, the science of breath and the
science of eating"
All this knowledge and much more
can be obtained by paying a member
ship fee of five dollars, contributing
monthly to an expense fund, and alb
sorbing the words of wisdom that fall
from the lips of professor John
Dew, the founder of the school, "Pro
fessor" Dew claims for the unique COL
lection of isms that he expounds the
name of psychology, but asserts that his
particular brand of that article is
soul silence. He illustrates his teach
ings by drawings of twelve alleged sa-
cred Symbols or charts, in which red,
blue, green and yellow chalk are used
with reckless prodigality.
In appearance Professor" Dew har-
with his weirdly fantastic
teachings. His brown hair falls in
wavy ringlets upon his shoulders, and
his gazelle-like eyes have in their limp-
i'd depths an expression of soulfulness
that goes far toward accounting for the !

-FOUR BOXES DID IT.
Remarkable Succe

Rema rka BILE Success of New PILE Cure.
People who have suffered for months
or years from the pain and inconVen-
fence of that common disorder, piles,
will look with skepticism upon the
claims of the makers of the new discov-
cry for a cure of all forms of piles,
known under the name of Pyramid Pile
Cure; nevertheless the extraordinary
cures performed by this remedy are
such as to warrant the investigation of
any sufferer. AS case in point the
following letter speaks for itself:
Mr.. Henry Thomas of sub-station No.
8, Hosac Ave-, Columbus, Ohio, writes
as follows:
Pyramid Drug Co.:
Gentlemen: I want you to use my
name if it will be of any use to you.
was so bad with piles that lost work
on that account. Nothing helped me. I
read in Cincinnati of the many cures
Of piles by the Pyramid Pile Cure and
went to a drug store and asked for it.
The drug clerk told me that he had
something else that he thought was
better, but told him that wanted to
try the Pyramid first.
The first box helped me so much that
l tried another, and then to complete
the cure used two more boxes, making
four in all. I am now completely cured.
Had not trace of piles and had suf-
fered for four years with the worst
kind of protruding piles.
l have suffered death from piles, but
I have found the Pyramid Pile Cure
to be Just as represented. 1 have rec
commended it to several of my friends
and am thankful to be able to write you
what good the remedy has done ME-"
Physicians recommend the Pyramid
Pile Cure because it, contains no OPIUM
cocaine or mineral poison of any kind,
and because it Is so safe and pleasant
to use, being painless and applied at
night. The patient is cured in sur
prisingly short time and with no incon-
venience whatever
The Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by
druggists at so cents per package, and
If there is any constipation it is well
to use the Pyramid Pills at the same
time with the Pile Cure as constipation
is very often the cause of piles and
the pills effectually remove the costive
condition. Price of pills is 25 cents per
package.

legiate membership. He habitually
wears a low-cut vest, white choker,
while protruding from his vest front is
a large silk handkerchief When in full
action his rapid-fire language battery
does terrible execution upon the Quean's
English. The following quotation from
! the circular that advertses the Phoph-
cts school throws as much light upon
the learned professor and his teachings
as Is easy to get. The advertisement
says:
| Professor Dew, the teacher, is ma
tive of America, humble and simple
child of nature, and with nature he has
| communed since boyhood. He is fifty
nine years of age, without gray hair,
, and Is as supple as a child. For more
| than forty years he has been an earnest
student of psychology, as he fully rea-
lized many years ago that soul science
was the key that unlocked the elixir of
life. He has visited every land in his
search after truth, and has been four
times around the world. Professor Dew
has been permitted to translate many
sacred symbols, or charts, many Of
which were ancient when Moses led the
children of Israel through the wilder
ness. Twelve of these are placed on the
walls of his class-rooms, and elaborate
explanations are made of these great
object lessons, and while they are pro-
tected by copyright, all pupils are per-
mtted to copy them for their personal
study and benefit"
Professor" Dew, at the close of his
regular Sunday afternoon lecture, yes
I,
trance to his brotherhood to the audi
ence, which was composed Of thirty wo-
men and six men.
"All you have to pay is membership
fee Of five dollars and some dues for ex-
penses each month";" said he. IT take
the five dollars, and the college keeps
what is left after paying expenses. The
five dollars entities you to belong to the
college as long as it lasts which will be
a good while, I think. Not one person
in million in America knows what I
will teach you for five dollars There
are not seventy-two persons in the Uni
ted States who know what I can teach
And you can attend my lectures for ten
years free, if you want to, after you
once become member"
When the distinguished educator was
asked at the conclusion of the services
to explain the circumstances connected
with his reported arrest on charge Of
larceny a few days ago he seemed dis
concerted; but recovered his self-posses-
sion sufficiently to declare:
ooh, there's nothing in that story. 1t
was just a Matchmaking scheme.
don't care to say anything about it, or
anything else for publication in a news
paper. My teachings are to deep for the
newspapers to understand. Perhaps If
a man studied me for ten years he might
be able to write intelligently about what
I think but not before. No, I don't care
to say anything about the matter"
The professor Is reported to have been
a prisoner at the central police station
on charge, preferred by woman from
gainesville, Ohio, where he formerly
taught, of stealing diamond ring. Ac-
cording to the statement of one Of his
pupils, yesterday afterno n, the ring has
now been returned to the owner.-Chica-

SOME TIME

Some time We shall know why
Our SunnieSt mornings change to moons of rain
And why our steps are Swallowed SO by pain;
And why we often lie
And why our lives thickly hedged about
With foes who put our Hottest plans to rout.
Some time We shall know why
Our dearest hopes are swept so swift away.
And why our brightest flowers first decay,
Why song is lost in sigh;
Why clasping fingers slip 80 soon apart.
EStrangement. death and space rend heart
from heart,
Until from deepest depths the teardrops start
Some time we all shall know
Each other-aye, as we ourselves are known.
And see how out of darkness light has grown
And He. who loves us so
Despite our willfulneSs and blind complai
Will show US how his kind and cal I'm restra int
Can mold a human soul into a saint
some time our eyes shall see
The silver lining to the darkest cloud.
While Silyery echoes follow thunderS loud
Some time our hearts shall be
Content, forgetting all our restless mood,
And knowing everything has worked for good
The how, and when, and why be understood.

BOARD OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION
Result Of Saturdays Special Meeting

The substance of the boards
labors is embodied in the follow
ing resolution:
1t is ordered that Professor
Griffin give notice to all children
in grades lower than the high
school, living outside the city,
that they will be required to OBJ
tain a permit from the county su-
perintendent of schools or they
will not be allowed to attend the
Ocala schools after October 20.
the superintendent is instruct
ed to grant free permits to all
children living nearer the Ocala
school than to any other school
to which they could go, but to
refuse permits to those living
nearer other schools, unless they
can enter the higher department.
But to those who can enter the
high school department the SUI
perlntendent is authorized to
grant permits to attend the said
schools from any portion of Ma
rlon county.
Professor Griffin submitted a
series of rules for the government
