| skimming the surface OF the ice at loco
motive speed; to feel the steady pres
| sure of the wind as it pushes the sail
| against. urging him onward with ap-
| parently irresistible force to feel the
| rocking of the runners over the uneven
ice. and the smoother sailing as it
strikes the open like the calm surface
of the bay after a rough sail in open
| water; to veer, 10 tack. to lurch into the
wind, and feel the sails flap for an in
| slant before filing with the wind again
| and hurrying the skater OFF once o
across the ice-these are some OF the
| joys of sail-skating, which. those who
follow it declare. is the nearest approach
TO flying that man has attained. Alone
and in the open. with nothing TO depend

that is a Joy worth experiencing, and
| when once experienced, it is said, a man
is never satisfied with any other mode
of locomCtion. 1t is the acme Of human
| pleasure, and intoxicates as no other

sport is the simplicity of the equipment.
and the small surface necessary to ena
Bile the devotee to follow it. The first
! requisite is a square half mile or more
of fairly clear ice. Then comes the sail,
and after it the type of skates. These
| must not be more than a quarter of an
| inch longer than the shoe. Long run
| ners, like the Donahue style OF skate,
! prevent the proper handling Of Cne's
self. the quick turning. and the sudden
tack. sometimes with only a seconds
| notice. The rocker style OF skate is
| most admirable for this sport. The dam
| gers of sail skating are comparatively
| few. The wonderful momentum Of the
skater carries him safely through any
stray patch of snow on the surface Of
the ice. His sharp runners Il through
the rougher ice, with nothing more than
the rocking of the skates and the sharp
tattoo of the runner as it touches the in
equalities. Only danger holes and OBJ
structions in the ice need be watched
for, and a slight turn of the wrist or
a change of the direction of the ankle
usually carries the sail skater safely
past his danger.

YALE GIElB CIJIB.

The management of the Yale Glee club for the coming year is to be changed considerably owing to the situ- ation which faces the club through the death of Mir. Thomas G. Shepard, who had served for many years as coach of this organization. Since the club was thus left without the advice of gradu- ates or an experienced coach, a gradu- ate advisory committee has been ap- pointed consisting of John o. Heald, '73, Frank T. Price, '92, and Ralph w. Schneeloch, 1901. Ono member of this organization will retire each year in fa- for of another graduate appointed by the incoming president of the club The committee is to be permanent. C. Frank Goodall of New Haven, super visor of music in the schools of Meri- den, West Haven and Seymour, has been appointed to succeed MT. Shepard The Yale News says:
 It may be advisable to state here that the attitude of those choosing the new members of the club, this applies also to the Banjo and Mandoline clubs, will be to choose the best of the candidates, regardless of class, and regardless of the length of time men have served on their Freshman or Apollo clubs. So it is hoped that there will be a strong competition from the freshman class, as there are a large number of positions to be filled on the both clubs,

assessment. It is advised that mem bers tender the old rate of assessment, and if refused by the collector a writ ten protest should accompany the pay rnent of the new rate. The legal com rlfttee presents form of protest to follow and renounces any responsibility in the action begun in Tennessee and Ontario. The statement issued by the committee follows: .-%
 First-Members should refuse to sign the blanks provided by the supreme council, because these blanks provide, in express terms, for the surrender or benefit certificates and impliedly in volve an assent to the change of rates of assessment. ..,>-a-
 Second Members should tender the amount of the assessment on, old rates. When this is refused they should pay the amounts requested or asked by the collector, accompanying this payment with written protest specifying that the payment is made lnder protest.
 The following form of protest Is rec commended by the. legal committee: F Payment of this assessment is made in the sum required under the re-rating prescribed by the supreme council, but I make said payment under protest, nevertheless, because this re-rating is illegal and in violation with my con- tract with the order. demand that my payment be credited according to the rates previously in force, .
 Third-The actions begun in Tennes- see and Ontario were not Instituted by us, and we assume no responsibility for the results of those proceedings, Members should not be misled by news paper accounts of these suits, because from information received your com n1ittee Is convinced that the questions of fact and law necessarily involved in our cause have not been presented, and are not and cannot be decided in these proceedings.

Your crimes are objectionable, and have the utmost contempt for you If you do die in prison the public will be well rid of you.

AMENDMENTS TO THE
 CONSTITUTION CARRIED
Continued from First Page.)

(Continued from First Page.)
 tion day throughout the state was the complete turn about of the political worm in Waterbury. Two years ago everything went republican, from the mayor down, but the result of to-day's voting showed a reversal that was not expected In any quarter. The entire city went democratic with the excep- ton of the office of city clsrk, which was retained by William H. Sandland, the republican victor in to-day's battle of ballots. William H. Thoms, the democratic candidate for Mayor ran on an average of $50 majority ahead of the republican ticket.
 In New London the republicans car ried everything before them, with the exception of one seat in the aldermanic chamber in the city election, and also took all the places at the town election. In NorWalk and South Norwalk there were city elections also, the republicans being victors in both places. These four places, Waterbury, New London, Norwalk and South Norwalk were the Ollly pldCeS III the SIdle were ClLy elec- tions were held.
 The democrats carried Danbury by 6 majority of about 275, the entire town ticket being carried. That place was one of the few in the state that voted against the two constitutional amend ments, both being defeated. The vote on these amendments was close, how- ever. Free text books also were voted down in Danbury, but the place went license with big vote. There was nothing of interest in the days pro- ceedings, and the vote was not very heavy. In Meriden the entire republican town ticket was carried by large majority, First Selectman George w. Miller being elected for the ninth time and eighth consecutive term. The vot- CTS favored both constitutional amend- ments, passing the voting machine proposition by vote of 1922 to 564 and the changing the time for the election of town officers by a vote of t,295 to 629. Meriden also voted to adopt free text books, this vote standing 1875 to 125 |

EoTEL BANKING SCHEME.
Chicago Capitalists Open Institution on
 3I.y ., Mutual Plan.

-si NAuAupA AAeAs
 Chicago, Oct. 2.-chicago capitalists to-day gave to the financial world something claimed to be distinctly nov el when they opened a new institution to be known as the Mutual bank. The new institution is asserted to be the first of it's kind in the country which, organized under existing laws as a bank and owned and operated by stockhold- CTS, divides it's profits equally with it's saving depositors. The mutual profit sharing plan under which the new bank is to be opened contenplates sharing profits equally between stockholders and savings depositors, after the usual guaranteed 3 per cent. semi-annually has been paid to savings depositors and 8 per cent. has. been distributed to stockholders, This, profit sharing goes to the point where, if at any time the management of the, bank desires to car ry any surplus out of earnings to the profit and loss account, it must be done out of the stockholders share of prof. its, and not from that of the depos- itors. F7~- es
 The first days business at the bank suggests that the new departure in banking will be popular. Over 800 ac- counts were opened, which, it is claimed breaks the record for one days bust ness in any of the local banks. Law renee Heyworth is president of the new institution. "

ly submitted,
 Charles A. Rich,

39 Maple Street.
 After the communication had been read Alderman Langley made a motion that the corporation counsel be asked for an opinion in the matter, and the motion was seconded. Alderman H0tch- kiss thought that, as this same matter has been explained before to the board by the corporation counsel, considera- ble time might be saved in having him at the next board meeting and at that time make an additional explanation, rather than to have him put to the ne- cessity of drawing up a formal state ment Alderman Langley's motion was then carried.
 The report of the committee on the salary of a building inspector was next given a final reading and an animated discussion followed. The report, as previously published in this paper, rec commended that the salary be fixed at $2, 800. Alderman Langley thought this amount too much and amended that it be placed at $1,500. Alderman Hotch- kiss objected to the cut-doWn and said that $2, 800 was not any too much for a competent man.
 Alderman Johnson said that he would offer a compromise and made an amendment to the amendment that the salary be $2,000 per annum. Alderman Burke thought that $1,5O0 was enough, while Alderman McKerness thought that the full amount was little enough. Alderman Healy agreed with the last speaker.
 At this point Alderman Langley l withdrew his motion. Both Aldermen Devine and Collins thought that $1,5OO was enough, and Alderman Collins, therefore, made another amendment. which was the same as Alderman Langley's original amendment, which had been withdrawn, that the salary be fixed at $1,5O0.
 On an aye and nay vote being taken the $1, 800 proposition was defeated, to ', the aldermen voting as follows: Aye, Burke, Collins, Devine, Marlow and Smith; nay, Johnson, McKerness, Max well, Healy. Hamilton, Hotehkiss and Langley. s.~
