Sophomores and Freshmen at Yale
 Have the Annual Meeting.
 New Haven, Sept 24.--The annual wrestling between the sophomores and freshmen at Yale, the survival of the rush" of former days and the event which ushers in the college year, took place last night on the Hopkins Gram mar school lot. The classes gathered in front of Osborne hall at o'clock under the leadership of Burnside Wins low Of Philadelphia. captain of the baseball team. They marched around the green, through Chapel, York, Film and High streets, to the scene of the wrestling. There torch-lit ring of seniors was formed by dint of furious struggling and then the fun began. Basil Scott, 1904, of New Brighton, $. l., acted as referee and Carl E. Adams, 1904, as ,timekeeper. The sophomores were victorious in two of the three matches, losing the heavyweight con- test
 Tn the first bout the lightweight, D. 2. Daskaloff of Macedonia, 1906, met Borup, 1907, and won a fall after two draws. The naiddleweight match re. l suited in d defeat of Milhalpen, 1907, 1 by A. W Morrison of Minneapolis, MiIn, 1906, in draw and two falls. i In the last match Alexander Rex Finn Of Pittsburg, Pa, 1906, was beaten by | Soners, 1907, in two straight falls All the matches were hotly contested especially the lightweight match, in the first bout of which freshman l fought ga nely to secure a draw after his opponent had got a half Nelson which could not be broken.
 After the wrestling was over the procession was taken up again with the sophomores ff1 a mood fit for cele. brating. The freshmen were just as fit and Tn the freshman quarters on York street model rough house was fndglged in. No great harm was done | to any Of the contestants beyond an occasional bloody nose and torn cloth. ing but there was enough noise for q | good sized battle After d time tre larger gatherings broke up into small parties, made up of several sopho
 mores with few freshman prisoners
 who were taken to various places near
 the campus for course in the nildef l forms of hazing.

What Constitutes Happines.

Have you ever stopped to ask your
self what constitutes real happinessP
Pleasure lies in happiness and there is
no happiness without contentment,
and contentment all depends on the
point Of view. Some Of the unhappiest
people in the world are those who
have apparently everything to make
them happy, and some of those who
are frankest in claiming happiness are
enduring the most unfortunate OF
physical and financial conditions
sometimes physical anguish.
A wish for another's happiness is
understood to mean an emphatic de-
sire that your friend shall have all the
earthly comfort and satisfaction within
reach, shall be the favored child of
fortune and prosperity; yet these
sufferers are tortured with physical
anguish and still report themselves to
be happy in the accepted meaning of
the term. Nobody would pray that
creature comforts should be taken
away from the unhappy persons first
mentioned, yet the possession of wealth,
fine horses and fine clothes oftentimes
fail to make the possessor comfortable
in mind and spirit--in thousand in
stances.
The first essential for real happi-
ness Is to respect ones self and ones
motives. Nobody can be either happy
or contented where there is hypocrisy
and treachery. Be guided by the
same motives that actuated you when
you were an innocent and artless child.
Believe in people, be pleased in your
transactions with others, and throw
shunshine around yourself and others
by honest dealings. Selfishness is the
terrible bane aud burden of the world
People who are on the constant look
out for Sights are generally apt to en-
counter them, but when you Danish
this carking care about yourself ard
what you think others are due you,
you will find the opportunity for real
happiness. As said before, content,
ment, which is only another name for
human happiness, depends entirely on
your point OF view; but this content
ment was the outcome of clear eyes,
sweet souls and patient loyalty to truth.
This alone will give us a taste OF the
wondrous beauty of life. st Louis

Mercenary Loves.

The Hartopp divorce case, which
filed 30 much space in the columns Of
British papers, a few weeks ago, gave
the public interesting ideas of the
Grass coarseness which characterizes
some circles of the "haute volee."
The evidence introduced at the trial
was Of disgustingly salacious nature.
And it was listened 10 with rapt at
tention by most distinguished aud
ience." 1t seems that next to a rotten
theatrical production, there is nothing
more fascinating to the mind of "re-
fined social circles' than still more
rotten divorce case. British papers
report that money was the predomi-
mating theme in the testimony given at
the trial. Lady Hartopp appears to
be an incarnation Of Thackeray's
"Becky Sharp" Her amatory rela-
tions were based upon the cold coin,
not upon overpowering passions. She
never failed to act upon the theory
that money is the sesame that ac-
complishes everything. Her counsel
were forced to trump up some excuse
for her offer to pay her husband one
hundred thousand dollars II he would
consent to permit her to obtain a
divorce. The correspondence between
husband and wife, and their own
testimony, abounded in references to
card-playing, pawning Of jewels, turf
betting, and the payment Of old debts
OF piquant character. From begin
ming to end one could hear the clink
OF the coin. It is no wonder that some
Of the leading British writer's gave
vent to their feelings Of disgust at the
repellantly vulgar features Of this
case. A certain London novelist, in
discussing the Hartopp testimony, de-
clares that British society has been
vulgarized and corrupted until 1t has
become SO unsound and fragrant that
it cannot be made out as much worse
than it is. Men and women in fashion
able life now do and say things which
would have been considered shameless
and impossible In former times, and
no penalties are enforced. Satire, be
says, loses it's SAVIOR when money hat
become more powerful than rank, and
there is nercenary taint with the in.
lection Of vulgarity everywhere. The
worship Of money has induced mora
dry rot in British as we'll as In Ameri
can "high life." 1t has led to I
multiplication Of sexual delinquenciel

sagacity at all, will do well in pulling
out of this unfortunate Venezuelan
affair as gracefully as circumstances
permit. and refrain from giving the
Washington authorities more cause for
suspicion as to the existence of ulterior
motives. He should bear liz mind that
every cannon shot off the coast of
Venezuela proves a nerve irritant in
the United States, and gives lot Of
silly sheets and nondescript writers
occasion to fly off their hinges and to
indulge in sensational rhetoric over
the possibility of grest war. Late
dispatches indicate that this Venezu-
elan row will be settled within the
next few days, and it Is to be hoped
that such will be the case. All parties
concerned have reason to long for a
termination of the blockade, which
has brought glory to neither OF the
allied powers, and, at the same time,
seriously embarrassed the National
Administration. 1t would be an awful
crime against civilization to permit an
affair of this kind to constitute the
cause of a war and hecatombs of
human lives. In discussing these
Venezuelan troubles, and the attitude
or intentions of Germany, one must
not lose sight Of the fact that the news
eminates, principally, from British
sources, and that it cannot, for this
very reason, be taken at Its face value.
The British have, 1t seems, reverted
to their old trick of posing as Americas
best friend, and processing the most
sincere anxiety to prevent violation
of the Monroe doctrine. 1t is still
perfdious Albion - concluding alli-
ances and then stabbing the ally in
the back, and, at the present time,
avowing friendship for a country
which they antagonized during the
gloomy days of the CIVIL War. Why
should Americans place so much faith
in British professions of friendship
after the recent exposure Of Lord
Pauncefote's double dealing at the
time Of the outbreak of the Spanish
war of 1898? 1t behooves us to be i'm
partial in this Venezuelan affair. II
Germany has done the wrong thing,
she Is no more to blame for it than
England or Italy. England would be
entitled to decidedly more respect If
she refrained from calumniating Ger
many and from criticising the latter
for acts which have the tacit approval
of every one OF the three allied powers.

The Plague.

The announcement that the plague
has made its appearance upon the west
ern coast of the United States and Mex
leo has of late attracted considerable
attention. Its arrival has not been
unexpected, for it has been raging in
the East with varying severity since
1894. In that year it broke out in
Hong Kong, where within three
months $500 people persisted, and
where the number of fatal cases
amounted to more than $3.50 before
the epidemic subsidized. From Hong
Kong it travelled to Bombay, and in
1898 there was a widespread epidemic
in that section of India. ."..
The earliest history of this disease
dates back to the second century.
When In the fourteenth century it
overran Europe and destroyed more
than one-fourth OF the population, it
was known.as the ''Black Death"
1t again appeared in the seventeenth
century, and practically repeated the
history of three hundred years before.
In 1865 it is estimated that in the city
of London alone 10000 people per-
ished from ''the plague"
There need be no fear that modern
sanitation and the efficient health
boards OF the seacoast cities of the
United States will permit it to become
epidemic in this country, or even to
interfere seriously with our commerce.
1t has been demonstrated that the
chief means of conveyance of these
germs are animals and insects, such as
rats, mice, dogs, flies, and, most prob.
ably, mosquitoes. The animals men.
toned are especially susceptible to in
fection and are rapidly destroyed. In
recent epidemics the disease has been
confined in its ravages almost wholly
to the more unclean quarters OF the
communities it has invaded, and rarely
affects those who are we'll nurished
and in comfortable surroundings.
i The specific germ of this disease
was discovered by Kitasato, the Japa
nese scientist, and lately serum has
been obtained which has been efficac
ious In its treatment. Haffkine, the
inventor of this serum, says that In I
village Of 1000 inhabitants where tht
plague broke out, 429 persons sub
mitted to incubation Of these onl,
seven were attacked by the plagu,
and all recovered, while OF those un
inoculated twenty-six were attacked
; and twenty-four died, In another cit.
lI2,197 were inoculated and over 6,00'
we're not inoculated. OF the latte
/ 482 died, whereas only thirty-si.
OF the persons inoculated succumbed

A Glimmer of Justice.

The contest in the National House
over the Philippine coinage bills is OF
no real Importance 90 far as funda-
mental theories of money are con-
cerned, for both bills create the gold
standard and make silver token money
redeemable at fixed rates. The COM
mittee report provided for s'peso" Of
416 grains with a fixed value of 30
cents, and the bill as passed provides
for dollar Of 4123 grains with fixed
value of 100 cents. Neither coin
would facilitate exchange with the
silver standard countries on account
of being token money on a gold basis,
80 that the controversy was over an
immaterial point of difference.
But the bill adopted shows one enor-
nous advance in financial legislation
that is plainly due to the Illuminating
effect of the discussion of the demone-
tization of silver in this country. In
stead OF changing the standard arbi-
traily without any regard to existing
contracts, and postponing the opera
tion OF the measure to allow gradual
readjustment of values, the bill ex-
tends the United States coinage system
to the islands. makes provision for the
equitable redemption of the coin in
circulation and makes this proviso:
THAT all debts. except those other
wise provided for in the contract,
owing on the date when this act shall
take effect or contracted within six
months thereafter, shall be payable in
the silver coins now In circulation in
the Philippine islands or in the law
full money of the United States at the
rate Of exchange prescribed at the
time by the Philippine commission. :"
This avoids the gross injustice of our
demonetization law OF 1878, which left
existing debts payable in money that
was constantly increasing in value,
while commodities necessarily de.
creased in value as measured by the
new standard. Deferring the action
of the law made the increase OF the
value OF money gradual, SO that the
loss fell on the business world without
any real understanding OF its meaning
at the time, and the result was very
serious business depression. The
change Of policy in the Philippine
measure is confession Of the blundel
OF our "crime OF 1873"
Under this Philippine bill no injur!
is done to anybody, unless the golt
standard shall prove injurious, and, o
course, it will be no more injuriou
there than elsewhere. Debts will no
be changed in amount by the legisla
ton, and while the prices of com
modities will fall their exchange valu
will remain unchanged and the nev
money received for them will have al
increased purchasing power. 1t will
be just like passing law that wha
was heretofore two bushels shall hence
forth be one bushel. -Indianapok
