WORK ON '"THE MAGISTRATE"

Yale Dramatic Association Progressing
With Annual Production.
Under the direction Of Mr.. John Ma
lone, rehearsals of the Yale Dramatic
association for their play, "The Magis-
trate," have been progressing rapidly.
Great improvement has been made in
the past week in the business of the
production. The men had their parts
learned after the first week of work.
The time is now being spent in drilling
the cast on action. Rehearsals are
held every day in either Alumni or Col
lege street halls lasting from three to
four hours. Strict attendance to these
rehearsals is enforced, a. fine being inn
posed in case of unnecessary absence.
The work as whole is so far advanced
that with two weeks yet. remaining to
put on the finishing touches, there can
be no doubt but that the club will pre-
sent on April a performance fin
ished in every respect, and in every
way worthy of "a Yale organization.
The managing of the New York per-
Torrance, which takes place on the
evening Of April at the Carnegie Ly,.
ceum, is in. the charge of Joseph B.

New York, March 21.-Andrew NJ.
Griscom, son of W. n. Griscom OF
Philadelphia, met tragic death in mid
ocean last Sunday afternoon. After at
tempting to take his own life the
young man apparently changed his
mind, and swimming to the log line
of the Atlantic Transport steamer Min
netonka, from which he had leaped
overheard, he grasped the line and was
pulled along until his body came in
contact with the patent log and was
literally torn to pieces by that instru-
ment.
A lifeboat attempted to recover the
body, but failed. The young mans ia
Their and two sisters were at the pier
to-day upon the arrival of the ship ex-
pecting to find him in good health. The
news was broken to them by customs
officials.
Young Griscom, who was student
at the University of Pennsylvania, dis
appeared from his boarding house in
Philadelphia early In February, and
was not heard Of until February 9. wher
he visited the New York Office of the
Reading Hardware company, which his
father owns. His demand for funds
there was refused and a telegram was
sent to his father. Nothing further was
heard of him until February 20, wheI
it was learned that he had sailed TO
Europe. and it was reported, and late
positively denied, that he had elopet
with Elsie Hanson, a governess in tn,
| Griscom family. He was returning
Ffrom his European trip when he tool
his life.

elgment; and, furthermore, our repre-
sentative has personally called upon
his agent, and has been refused any m
formation as to his intentions OF pay
ing the claims, Mr.. Starin's agent
went SO far as to refuse to state wheth-
er or not he carried insurance on the
cargo. We know, furthermore, that
other shippers met with similar treat
ment at the hands Of the starin line,
and, in view of the fact that the hre
occurred over three months ago, we
think the Starin people have had ample
time. to determine their position and
treat with their shippers relative 10
adjustment of losses.
As to that portion of the statement
above referred to, in which Mr.. DeWen
would intimate that any legal action
against Mr., Starin would prejudice the
interests of the New Haven shippers,
and perhaps result in a withdrawal Of
his boats, we deem the same to be too
wild" to deserve any special comment.
As we understand the situation. each
merchant must determine for himself
whether or not he will continue to wait
content in the blind faith that Mr..
Starin, from generous impulses, will at
some future time, pay losses on which
at the present time his attorney is TAX
ing action in the courts to relieve him
from all liability, and this without any
word of assurance whatever, either
from Mr.. Starin or his attorney, that
there is any, such disposition on the
part of Mr.. Starin.
For our part we feel we have waited
| a. reasonable length of. time, and, as
no assurance is Forthcoming, we, TO-
gether with a number Of other firms
have placed the matter with our at
torney, Mr.. Harry w. Asher, and under
his advice shall confer with any other
merchant who we know to be interest
ed, and believe that some concerted
action, other than legal process, may
| be brought to bear upon Mr.. Starin tc
influence him to show his hand, and
, give his patrons some information as
to his disposition in this matter.
| If such concerted action cannot be
reached, or if the same does not avail
we presume we shall then listen to the
urgent calls of some of our neighbor
who. for some time past have beer
| urging us to institute legal action.

THE MODERN SLEEVES.

And now some feminine genius has
seen the possibilities o. present-day
sleeves. She has produced an inno-
walton which will app al to every
woman with ideas.
This is nothing less than an ad-
Unstable sleeve. The bodice is made
sleeveless, finished on the shoulder
with band or frill, 7uGer which the
separate sleeve, which L full length,
is fastened. 1t need not be of the
gown stuff, but must blend in color.
Any light, flimsy fabric is accounted
dressy, and some bodlces have two or
three sets of different style sleeves
made to wear with them.
AS everybody Knows the sleeves
make the dress, and by this method a
gown cannot only De made to appear

longed indefinitely, for new sleeves,
following the ever changing modes,

THE REAL "NEW WOMAN"

Women of the future may outdis-
tance men in many of the activities OF
life. AS woman becomes better edu-
Gated, that IS, secures better all
round development, she improves both
mind and body. She acquires natural
and normal views, in contradistinction
to the emptiness and folly OF fashion
that now possesses so many women.
She will enjoy better health than the
average man, she iill be more careful
about the kind of husband she selects,
so that succeeding generations will be
more virile N every respect. Add
to all this, woman's superiority over
man in her powers of intuition, and
this type of new woman" viii! be in
deed power in the land.
More than ever will she be wife,
mother, housekeeper-feminine in the
best sense, yet with broadeued views
and enlarged capacities.-Good House

TITLED DECORATORS.

AS seems natural, many members of
my sex are possessed of wonderful ca
pacity when floral decoration is con-
cerned and several hostesses of the
day take pride and personal interest in
the adornment of their dinner and
luncheon tables. And some of the most
artistic results are often achieved at
least cost, as, for instance, autumn
foliage, heather, red berries, and var
fegated ivy are not to be surpassed
where beauty is concerned, says Wom-
ans Life. Lady Brougham, votary
of red in house, dress and floral
effects. often Superintends the decora-
ton OF her dinner table, and her color
schemes, from rose pink to deepest
crimson, are simply admirable. The
Duchess of Fife, whose love of the
country is proverbial, and only
arranges the flowers AID leaves or her
tables, but with her two little daugh.
tiers gathers them herself during coun.
try rambles in Scotland. Another well.
known hostess favors wild flowers, and
