 which the band would cross the open and near this point we hid low among
 the dark spruces. We had not waited long when a COW elk stepped out from the woodland and moved across the grass, but at point much farther away from us than the guide had fig
 ured on. Evidently the band had changed its direction while still in the woods, and the distance was con
 sidered too great to risk a shot at the stag when he should appear. It would be necessary to wait for better chance. One by one the does filed across the stretch of grass. and then when the last had gone. we heard the challenge of the bull, and immediately he strOde into the open. ES.2at woR-

A.BLANKEr PUNIsHMENT.

The Yale Faculty didn't take as long to discuss the new boys antics as New Haven did to discuss the Gut pro- blem,' and it has now made up it's mind. It gives kind of blanket pun ishment. because, we suppose, it didn't know how to be more specific. It says that the iodgers in the three large dor- mitories on York street shall be de- prived during the rest of the year of Those who know about new boys say that this is the most severe penalty that could have been imposed short of suspension. In other words it cuts off some of the opportunities for playing one game or another, or seeing one game or another, etc, etc.
 A somewhat large and strident howl over the injustice of this punish ment has already gone up, and may yet be heard from the Atlantic to the Paci- lIC, anu LTOIl Llle IEoZSh ISSlolS LII tlS North to the Land of Fire in the South. We hope so. It is fun to howl and to hear bowling, and there must be some fun. We cannot just now join in the howl, for we don't really know how much injustice" has been donee and we feel pretty sure that whatever in justice has been done is not more than the new boys did. If some innocent new boys have to suffer it won't hurt them much and will teach them val uable lesson. They belong to the gang. and they must pay for it. Of course it's too bad, but there are many things that are too bad. For instance, some of the antics of new boys.

Once we had to cross an open place, and it was neces- sary to lie fiat and wriggle along through the grass. Again the guide stopped and peered Warfly through the fringe of trees, and again he wait cd for the call of the bull elk, to guide him in his search. Like the niast of trumpet it came from be- hind a cluInp of trees to the east, and triumphant and defiant at it was, felt that the noble beast was sounding his knell-that his hour had come. The guide crent forward, followed closely by the man elected to take the first shot, while the rest of us drew back to watch the end without disturbing the game.
 ''Crash!" the wind had changed, and like charge of cavalry the herd of elk broke away across the open, and plunged through the fringe of trees and underbrush by which they Were surrounded. Now, I thought, the bull will get away, but cr0uching low, saw him standing near a spruce tree, calmly watching the departure of the cows. One by one they passed him, but not step would he take until the last of his band had gone.

AN ELK HUNT IN THE BLUE NOUN
 TAIN FOREST

Personally. I never hunt; my sym pathies are all with the hunted, and prefer to put my energies into the protection of game rather than into the destruction of it. Nevertheless, that I may be able to speak intelli- gently on this subject, and as much from personal experience as possible I frequently accompany hunters in their trips afield. Thus it was that yesterday I accepted an invitation from 8 hunting party to witness an elk hunt in the Blue Mountain Forest.
 A bull elk in October is one of the grandest sights of which an American forest can boast. As large as a horse, and crowned with glorious antlers, he stalks the earth like king, and, la"ge as he is, he treads the ground with a springy step, which speaks of power and health and vigor, And his voice is in keeping with his form and car rtage; clear as a bugle note it sounds from the hills in the early morning, and again at evening as the setting sun lights the autumn foliage on the western slopes. Such was the animal I had for weeks been watching as he followed his band of twenty cows from the cover of the woodland, just before sundown, and which had thrill ed me with his long-drawn challenge in the gray light of the dawn; such was the prize the hunters sought to win, when at four o'clock yesterday afternoon I met them in the shadow of a hunting camp on the side of Croy- don Mountain.
 After the first greetings wes sat in silence. None knew whence the king might be; it was known only that he had selected the territory tereabouts as his domain, and that, if we were quiet, his shrill bugle-note might be- tray him. And it did. From far away on the hills, came the call, so faint that but one member of the party heard it. The hunters took their rifles and, following the guide, filed down into the valley, from the opposite side of which the faint whistle had come. At the bottom of the valley there was a long, level stretch of grass land, and across this the guide had figured that the elk would come. From time

TRAFEL .INeITALY.

Travel in Italy hasn't been cracked up to be much lately and now Edward Gosse writes to the London Times to warn his countrymen and others of the discomforts which they are certain to encounter if they undertake any rail- road journeys in Italy. Since the roads came into the hands of the govern ment, he says baggage has not been robbed as it was formerly, but prin- ciples of false economy have intensi- fled other evils, especially those of ir- regularity and abominable overcroWd- ing. Repeatedly, he declares, he has been comrelled to make unavoidable journeys in standing position in the corridors. As a particular illustra- ton, he writes: Yesterday we trav- eled by what is supposed to be the best train-thc "direttissimo'' from Bologna to Florence. When it arrived from Milan, forty minutes late, the train was already full, and over-full. Hardly any one got out at Bologna, and in a scene of the greatest con- fusion large number of t1rst-class passengers, principally tourists, invad- ed the train. The station master was called and was begged to put on an-. other carriage This he politely but firmly refused to do, and he offered us no help of any kind. The passengers were obliged to start, thronging the

The seen cry Of the Apennffes is beautiful. but it would hardly be possible to cross these mountains in more squalid dis comfort than We did.

Their experience taught them q lesson
 and they set to work to concentrate. or garlize and win. Everybody knew that 2 conflict was inevitable, but the Rus sian authorities refused to take precau- lions. The correspondent does not be- lieVe that the Armenians ever made o,. contemplated deliberate attack, inas- much as they were in a numerical mi norityof about one to five The imme diate cause of the rioting, he says, was some chance shots fired by strikers. Tartars and Armenians alike took these for signs that hostiIities had be- gun, and straigthway began to shoot down any foes who came in sight. The slaughter would have been much great CT than 1t was, he declares, if the Ap- menians had not been organized for de- fence, or if the Russians had not been much more prompt than they were be- fore in sentlins: troops to allay the dis ordArR.

An important step has been taken by the French Naval Department for pro- yiding the French fleet with submersi- ble boats, as distinguished from sub- marines. Eighteen of these boats of a size larger than any yet laid down, are to be built at Cherbourg. They are to have displacement of S5S tons, a length of 15O feet, and surface speed of twelve knots. The boats, which will move by steam on the surface, will be provided with twin screws and engines of TOO horsepower. On each boat there will be seven or eight torpedo tubes.

The scheme further provides that after an annual dividend of 6 per cent. on the investment has been taken, all further profits will go to the city.
