Yale Men nterested-Investigat by
 , Engineers Proves Assertion.
 Many Yale men will be interested to learn that the main recitation building at Phillips academy has been closed because an investigation by en- gineers shows that it is unsafe for oc- cupancy. Extensive alterations will be started at once, but the school work will not be interfered with, as recita- tions can be held in other buildings. The building contains ten large recita- tion rooms, the headquarters of the lit erary and debating societies, the library and the academy hall. which occupies the whole of the third floor. It was built in 1865 at cost of about $40,000. Treasurer James c. Sawyer says the chief trouble seems to be with the roof and the upper walls supporting it.

 at King Leopold of Belgium.
 Brussels, Feb. 1O.-Gennaro Rubino, the Italian anarchist, who has been on trial here since February 6, charged with attempting to assassinate King Leopold, on November 15 last, by firing three shots at the king, while the lat ter was returning from the cathedral after attending Te Deum in memory of the late Queen Henrietta, was found guilty to-day, and was sentenced to imprisonment for life at penal servi- tude.
 When the trial of Rubino was re- stunned to-day, counsel for the defence appealed to the jury to act in man. ner similar to that of the jury which tried Sipido, who attempted to assas- sinate the, then Prince of Wales, now King Edward, at Brussels in April, 1900, and, listening only to the voice of their social duty, acquit the &C., cused.'
  Jean Baptiste Sipido was found gull ty on July 5, 1900, of attempting to assissinate the Prince of Wales, but the court announced that it considered he acted without discernment," and sentenced him to confinement in a re- formatory until he attained his major ity. Three men who instigated the att tack on the Prince were acquitted on the ground that they. considered the plot to be a. joke.. ,..,..- .>....

And Extra-sized Silk Skirts at s7.5o

In black only; of very heavy grade of taft eta with deep, Spanish flounce. finished with two ruffes. This skirt is notable for its extreme fullness and troominess.' It is especially in tended for women of generous proportions, who find the ordinary ready-made petticoats too skimpy.
 The grade of silk and the 5ellence of this skirt would put it in the $S,50 class.
