4 HOPE OR TITO.

The close of the college year is at hand, and some in this city are fer vently hoping that it's close will also close some of the student performances that New Haven has been treated to this year. It probably wont, but 1t Is well enough to hope. If 1t doesn't we hope that the beginning of the next college Sear will also begin an effort that will teach the young gentlemen of Yale who are inclined to be rascally that rascality doesn't pay.
 The talk is that a stone or torpedo or something thrown recently by one of the young gentlemen of Yale hit the President of Yale. If this is so 1t was a most unworthy hit, and one calculat- ed to call attention sharply to what may happen when things are thrown. Not long ago a policeman was pretty savagely hit by some of the young gen. tlemen. We hope the mayor will escape and the governor too, if he visits this city. Then, when everybody has had quite enough, we hope the young gen. tlemen who have the fun wont escape.
