WERE THIRSTY IN BOSTON.
A Party of Yale Graduates Up Against the Early Closing Law.

New York Sun.
 Three Yale graduates, who are in the same New York law office, went up to Cambridge to see the Yale eleven do up Harvard. and when the game ended in disastrous defeat instead of victory they decided that something must be done for their nervous systems. After a very good dinner in Boston they gathered a small crowd of Yale men and suggested good punch. Some of the men were in favor of champagne straight as a tonic, and this was debated care fully.
 A steward was appointed and it was decided that just to show that they still had their nerve a big punch should be mixed by a doctor who had kept his hand in since leaving college, and that a cer- tain number of bottles of champagne should be purchased for the men who did not like punch. It was to be a Dutch" assessed each man $l5 for his share of the entertainment.
 Then they proceeded to the hotel bar to get the necessary supplies. A room had already been engaged.
 Give me this list of articles and have them sent up to room 22," said the elect ed steward, handing over the list. Sorry sir" I;n.aS said < the barkeeper' but
 That's all right old man. We are guests of the house."
 Cant do it." said the barkeeper. You are just half an hour late with your or der.''
 Persuasion and threats failed, and the crowd marched over to another hotel. They received the same answer.
 It was after Il o'clock. and the law was strict. Various cafes were visited, but no liquors could be bought. They gave up the hunt about midnight and re- turned to their hotel, where they formed an anti Boston Mtual Protective Associa- tion. Each member solemnly agreed nev- CT to spend another night in the town.

GERMAN INDIGNATION
Aroused by Statements Regarding
Indemnity Claims.

London. April 1.-THE Times Berlin
correspondent today represents the Ger
man government as being in a state of
considerable Indignation at the state
ment in the American Press of Mr.. Rock
hills figures OF the indemuities which
may be demanded from China. The
Times says: The statement is exceed
ingly incorrect and calculated to give
an entirely false impression. The ex-
cess of the German over the other
claims is easily understood.
The Germans sent a much larger force
from Europe while the British sent one
from India comparatively near at hand
In these circumstances it is regarded
here that it is a matter Of deep regret
that the misleading account published in
America should be commented upon in
the British papers in "a spirit to give Of
Tense to Germany. Great indignation is
expressed at the suggestion that the in
demniUy claimed by Germany includes a
heavy pecuniary mulct for the murder
Of Baron Ketteler. The baselessness Of
the supposition is shown by the fact thar
the German claim is only II millions, as
against the II stated by Mr.. RockhHI
and therefore considerably less than the
amount already voted by the reichstag
for the campaign. There is no attempt
in authoritative quarters to disguise the
fact that much can be said in favor of
the United States suggestion in regard
to the settlement Of the indemnities but
the German government has refrafned
from taking up a definite attitude there
anent, until il sees how it is received
by the other powers
