The peachtrees now are in full
bloom,
And wheat is looking green;
The maple trees are tinged with

The blue bird has been seen.
We think now winter winds no

Will wrestles in the pine,
But spring is now upon the way
With blossoming flowers shine.

And answer to roll call.
"B-," He mashed his hand last

While fixing coupling pole,
So I'll tell you what he did,
He let the bad words roll.
Here lives a man named Orange

He just can't frown at all,
A little boy is at his house,
They keep it wrapped in a shawl.

And frisky as squirrel,
He says the sweetest thing on

And if does not soon improve
Next week no news he'll tell.

SOME GOOD WRESTLING.
Preliminary Bouts Held in Yale Gym

nasium Yesterday Afternoon.
The preliminary wrestling bouts to
decide the championship of Yale uni
versity in the lightweight, middleweight
and heavyweight classes were held in
the Yale gymnasium yesterday after
noon The events took place in the
handball room of the gymnasium and
We're very evenly contested, each match
frequently being applauded by the large
number of students who attended. The
finals in the above three classes will
be held this afternoon at 8 o'clock and
will doubtless be witnessed by large
audience as there is more interest than
ever in this branch Of athletics at Yale.
The most exciting match of the after
noon was that between Phelps 1902 L.
S. and Benner 1901 S. The first bout
was a draw the second Benner won in
minutes 10 seconds and the third Ben
ner also won in minutes seconds af-
ter an exceedingly hard tussle. Phelps
showed great pluck in the last bout af-
ter being quite severely hurt by a
hard throw on the head. He pluckly
continued, though it was evident his in
jury cost him some strength. He was
liiIdlly ubNilcu ultNl lOul iliiiiutco VI
clever defense.
In the lightweight events FL. e. Mills
1903 and Bluford Wilson 1901 We're the
first contestants. The first and second
bouts were draws and the third resulted
in a throw for Wilson in one minute.
j. B. Hart 1902 and j. Hartridge 1903
were the other lightweights to line UP.
Hart threw his man once in the second
bout in minutes and As seconds. The
first and third bouts We're drawn. Hart
and Wilson then drew to see who would
wrestle Coffin, theother candidate for
lightweight honors the winner to wres-
tie Wilson for the championship to-
day. The lot fell to Hart who after So
minutes and AZ seconds managed to
down his man. The men We're very
evenly matched and the length of the
bout was quite remarkable.
AS there We're but two heavyweights
w. j. Mcconnell and j. S. Gle,
their match will take place this after
noon with the others.
W. w. Taylor 1900 S. and Benner will
be the lightweight contestants at this
afternoons match

sented by DR.. Modkyns Seymour IA.

IN FAVOR OF S. N. E. COMPANY.

LIN l. ~ WIN of .. N II. COMPANY.
The first test case in Connecticut UNI
der the new general telephone act, pass
ed by the last legislature. has been de-
cided in favor of the Southern New
England Telephone company. The
statute, like the general street railway
law compels an independent telephone
company to obtain, before it begins
building, from the superior court of the
state, approval Of public necessity and
convenience
The particular case rose at New Lon
don, where an independent company
several months ago petitioned the SUI
perior court to approve convenience and
necessity under the statute. It's petit
ton was sharply fought by the South
ern New England Telephone company
in a long trial, during which both COM
panies, in addition to local questions
of fact introduced much expert testi-
mony bearing upon the relative value
of two systems.
Judge Thayer has held the papers fer
many weeks and now hands down
decision dismissing the independ mt
company's petition. The case is one of
extreme importance, as a precedent in
this state, where number of independ-
ent companies have been awaiting
Judge Thayer's finding before proceed
ing further. The decision also has con-
siderable Importance as bearing on the
question of an outside telephone corpo-
ration entering the state and using in
dependent companies as a basis of OPP
cratic and extension.
