gan to feel her years, and to equivo- ing more to do than to take the wa ters,' and she became young again. Another Greek author added a few suc- culent details declaring that in Cock aigne cakes and bread fought for entry down the strangers throat and the fish came to the house ready fried-a pfan- tasy which the Romans capped by vow ing that the little sucking pigs ran about the streets ready roasted. Thus 1t will be seen that the prevailing iTn- pression concerning the people of this land was twofold-that they lived in miraculous pltnty, and that they were lazy, pampered mortals, allowed by heaven to reap without sowing, and be- lie the stern saying that he that will not work shall not eat, The word 'cockney" then,' may have come from either of two words. the Dutch 'kokee- ner'' or the French "coqueliner," mean ing to pamper, or the alleged low-Latin word "coquinatus," kitchen-knave or cupboard lover With continental peo- ples the Englishman, and therefore the Londoner, as the native par excellence, has always been noted for his fondness for eating, and thus the word may have been originally applied--by the French perhaps--to the people who lived in that land of plenty called London. Our capital was in past centuries famous for it's riches and feasting, just as a city banquet even to this day implies the typical dinner of dinners"
 On the other hand, the word may have been applied by the hardy people of the English provinces in ridiclue of the lazy denizens of the city who led such luxurious lives, with every form of self-indulgence that civilization had then devised. We know that the word, whatever it's origin. was applied to the Londoner at an early period in hou his tory, and there is extant an order is sued by Henry VIII. in 1517, showing that the citizens then kept yearly feast at which a monarch called "the King of the Coclxneys' presided. At what precise date the definition of cockney became proverbial we cannot say but it was generally accepted for many generations that to be true citizen of Cockaigne one must be born within the sound of Bow Bells, the an cient church which stood in the center of the city and the bells of which could, no doubt, be heard further in those times of comparative quiet than they can now. The nickname then sig nified indifferently man with a cer- tain very marked accent, or simply one who was ignorant of country life and customs; and this definition has held It's own, down to our time. But it is strange to read in an old magazine of sixty years back, that "every day les sens the number of Londoners to whom such circumscribed notions can be fair ly attributed. The spread of knowl- edge has dispelled his prejudices, and the locomotive advantages of steam have enlarged his sphere of actual ob-

 Both the banjo and mandolin clubs gave excellent performances of their numbers. African Dreamland," a swaying southern dance by George At water of New Haven was one of the best pieces done by the Mandolin club The banjo club excellent in the march Pro Yalensi'' by Walter Cowles, a member of the junior class in college, and also New Haven boy. The march is one of the successes of the year, and is always on the programmes. The banjo club played it with an engaging rhythm. One of the unique things on the programme was MT. Johnson's s whistling solo with a background by the glee club. The whole was very pleasing.

QUIET REIGNED.
Returning Graduates Did Not Have the
 Usual Lively Time.

Returning Graduates Did Not Have the
 Usual Lively Time.
 It seemed that there was a great amount of quietude about the city last night than in many years past on the night before a commencement day game and especially when there are so many old graduates back. But the num- Der of old graduates does not seem to be so large as on many past occasions. but there is still room and time for many more to arrive in the city to-day.
 While there was a great amount of traffic on the streets in the center of the city than is customary on an ordinary Monday night, yet there was not the great din of most commencement week nights. The various places usually fre- quented by the returned celebrators were not doing much of a business. and the quiet which prevailed was really as- tonishing.
 Here and there were small knots of men in their respective class garbs greeting one another or welcoming a new arrival and having a little quiet fun among themselves. but the general hilarity was noticeably absent.
 There is always a calm before a storm and it is reasonable to presume that there will be fun and excitement fast and furious for all this evening.

A FLORIDA PELICAN.

Little Billee has quite a history. He was rified from the parent nest on Woman Key (about seven miles south of Key West) on September IT, 1903, by Engineer James Haskins of the marine service.
 There were four of them,' said En- gineer Haskins in telling the story, "and the ugliest little creatures you ever saw, with nothing on but few pin feathers just pricking through the skin. The nest was little more than a big. bundle of sticks in a fork of mangrove three of four feet above the ground. I took three and started in to bring them up by hand. Two the boys stoned to death, but Billee I brought through all right.
 He's a fisherman, sure enough, but 1t isn't necessary for him to work be- cause the marketmen around at the fish market throw him snapper every morning and afternoon, besides what he gets at home. Billee calls around there for his rations pretty regularly, I guess.
 Hes a spoiled bird all right. He had a battle royal with a couple of Cubans yesterday. They were fishing and had thrown a snapper onto the wharf, which Billee seized and had In his pouch in no time They rushed on him, but the bird stood them off with his sharp beak and outspread wings. But the fish was still attached to the hook and they taunted the line and yanked h1 Iies ora1 tIa fish"
 Billee is the mascot of the tackles Of the United States naval station at Key Vest .-Correspondence in Forest and Stream.

THE CocKNEY. PAST AND PRES

ENT.
 Not in books only" wrote Trench, over fifty years ago, "but often in words contemplated singly, there are boundless stores of moral and histori- cal truth, and no less of passion and imagination, laid up." If a famous pralate found a whole sermon in the noun malt, there is certainly whole social essay condensed in the one word "cokney." Its derivation, the or igin of it's application to Londoners, it's early meaning, it's later meaning, and the one which it bids fair to possess in the future, are we'll warth considering, for these developments and change are deeply rooted in the history of the Eng fish people. There is uncertainty, and therefore confusion of opinion con- cerning the derivation of the word. It seems, however, to be generally accept ed as having first been descriptive of a citizen orf wonderful fairyland or Topsyturvydom, which would have de- lighted Lewis Carrall or the author of Bab Ballads A comic Greek, a con- temporary of Plato, is credited with the honor of having invested this material Utopia, and his fable was made famil- far to the French public as early as the thirteenth century, in a ballad on ''The Land of Coekaigne."

 Woolsey hall is taking very large part in Yale affairs these days, and it's addition to the university's equipment has already been Justified. One won- ders what Yale did without such hall for so many years. Its uses are diverse. pn Sunday the baccalaureate sermon was given there, and free organ re- eital drew many hundreds of the com mencement guests Sunday afternoon; last night it's stately walls echoed the songs Of the Yale glee club, and the music of the dance, and on Wednesday It will be in use for the dignified cere- monies of graduates.
 The hall never looked more beautiful than at the Glee club concert and sen- Tor promenade last night, and its pure white interior set off exquisitely the pretty gowns aand fresh faces of it's girls. One sees the really pretty girls 1t these small dances such as this sem Tor promenade-the boys sister, or per- haps the other fellows sister who has begun to have her place at important affairs For this affair of graduation, and all the festivities that attend it, is important to the man who is going out Into the world, and he wants those closest to him to be present.
 Preceding the promenade came the annual glee club promenade concert, that wonderful mixture of rag time melodies which passes for college glees. One rarely hears a good college song nowadays by a college club. Brave Mother Yale" to begin with and Bright College Years" of course, to end with, put betweer-music hall ditties, many ef which have not even passing inter- ,st. But these glee club audiences )eem to like it all, for they applaud with a vigor that would please even a prima donna and demand, and are never refused, an encore. The quartette, Parks, Wiggin, Holmes and Tyler, vas recalled so many times that t exhausted it's repertoire, and had to jtop. Mir. Tyler's funny ''asides" in the negro melodies amused the audience greatly. The solos of MT. Tyler and MT. Baxter and MT. Wiggin were all well done and gave much enjoyment.
 The glee club sang it's songs with such free swing and full round tone that
