1.orrrR1Es I'M ENGI.ANn.

The story that a twenty thousand pound lottery prize remains unclaimed in Paris must excite the acquisitive instinct of gamblers in this country. the more so from the fact that tickets for the draw were sold in England. As every schoolboy knows, the British Museum had it's inception in a lottery promoted to purchase a collection des- tined to form the nucleus of our great national treasure store. The first Westminster bridge owed some of its funds to a lottery; two or three sums for supplying London with water pro- ceeded from the same source,l while more than one imperial. venture was financed ,in like manner. Where the principle was had 1t is not surprising that the details were often discredita- ble. Although the Archbishop of Can terbury, the Lord Chancellor and the Speaker were responsible for the man. agement of the lottery which furnished funds for the acquisition of the Cotto- nian and Sloane collections, gross frauds were perpetrated in connection with 1t, and one man was fined one thousand pounds for his manipulation of the tikets-London Evening Standard.

NEW HAVEN THEATER.

The Rays Play to Standing Room at
 New Haven Theater Last Night.
 The Rays in Down the Pike" one of the funnies of funny burlesques, played to a standing room only house at the New Haven theater last night The piece is described as a merry mu- sical frolic and 1t fulfils everything 1t professes to accomplish.
 The Rays are a sure, speedy and cer- tain cure for the blues, and any oTle troubled with melancholy should no; fail to visit the theater either this aft ernoon or evening. The part of Casey the janitor, suits Johnny Ray to per lection, and while at times he may overdo Casey yet the crowds down't seem to mind 1t. They simply laugh with gusto at the eccentricities of the funny little man. Their appreciation of his efforts to pleas and amuse them was shown by the hearty and prolonged applause. The company gives good support to the principals in every case Esan Wanders, the a German Jack ot all trades, is exceedingly comical, and Sam Goldman in his Hebrew character makes quite a hit. Dan Coleman, wht is also a Casey and who keeps Johnny Ray in trouble most of the time, con tributes his full share towards making the audience happy.
 Pretty girls in beautiful ensembles artistic dancing and several very pretty songs with exceedingly fine stage set. tings all go to make up a show where any one can bather in oceans of laugh ter for the period of two hours.
 Some of the songs that tickled the fancy of the audience were "Snuggle t Me Closer lola, I'm Very Fond oi You" I'm the Janitor," Soldier Boys in Blue"
 The Rays will appear again at tht matinee this afternoon and at the even ing performance. The sale of seats fol both has been very large and early ap. pIication at the box office this morning will be the only means of preventing disappointment

READY FOR WEST POINT
VARSITY AND SUBS LEFT LAST
 EVENING FOR NEW FORK.

COachers Confident of q Yale Victory
 Prbable Line-Up for Big Came
 Freshmen to Meet HOgan's Exeter
 Eleven.
 Full of confidence of victory, the Yale university football squad and substi- tues, to the number of twenty-four, left last evening for New York city, where they remained over night, preparatory to going up to West Point to-day for the annual game against that strong army eleven. There was very little practice yesterday in preparation for the big game, as it was deemed neces- sary to keep the men in good physical condition. The Yale coaches are also very confident that good showing will be made. As Yale has not yet been scored on by any team she will try and keep up her record to-day and at the same time administer a good defeat to West Point.
 This game has always caused great excitement and intense interest, and this year it is even more so. Harvard only beat West Point 5 to 0 and Har- yard also easily defeated Springfield traing school, while Yale bare came out with a victory
 A big loss to Yale to-day will be that of Roome, the star fullback and punt CT. His injuries will probably keep him out of the game for a week or two.
 The lineup for this afternoons game will be: Forbes, left end Paige, left tackle; Brides, left guard; Hockenberg- CT, center Erwin, right guard; Biglow, right ackle; Alcott, right end Jones, quarterback Knox, left halfback; Veeder, right halfback; Morse, fullback.
 Princeton meets. Dartmouth to-day, Harvard tackles Brown and Pennsyl- vania will line up against Lafayette.
 The Yale freshmen will meet Jim Ho- gan's Exeter academy eleven at Yale field to-day.

A UEAD1NG LONDON LAWYER.


 Rufus Isaacs, K. C., M. F., whose work on the commission to inquire into police methods is proving so excellent, Is an example of the advantage of a speciality in life, But the brilliant K. Q. had his speciality thrust, as it were, upon him, for as a youngster he went into the city. He did very well, but a friend thought he might do still better if he took his financial experience to the bar, So he did, and stepped as a city specialist almost at once into the fattest of commercial cases. Not since the days of Lord Russell has counsel so completely captured the forensic world as has MT. Isaacs. He Is to-day, says The Onlooker," the man to con- jule with at the bar Three figure Ire tainers'' and "refreshers' rain on him, yet the trim, pale-faced, thin featured K. O., with his deadly bright eyes and his quiet, put-you- off, your guard voice, rises to- cross examination in some intricate case as If it was the only one he had been briefed in for six months. That is the man's secret, a gigantic power of concentration, for he is not a great orator, but for marshall ing evidence he is second to no one. He is still young, and can afford to wait for that promotion which in his case can only end in-the Woolsack.-- Dundee Advertiser.

Select Audience Listens to Superb Rem
 ditions by WelI-Known Baritone.
 It was a select audience that greet ed MT. Frederick Weld at Foy au- ditorlum last evening, and It's numbers were hatteringly large. It was also an appreciative audience, and displayed a keen perception of the merits of the numbers on the programme, The pro- gramme, by the way, was sufficiently varied to please the tastes of all classes of music lovers, and was so uniform ly meritoriously rendered that 1t is diff ficult to say which number excelled in technical interpretation. No doubt the old English ballad, Young Richard, :" met with the most popular approval, while "Come Live With Me-" by w. R. Cowies of this city, and The Old Black Mare" evinced a lively appreciation of their melllfuous strains. The Cycle Song" by Liza Lehman, the words of which were selected from the poem by Tennyson, In Memoriam," showed MT. Weld's mastery of music and also his mastery over his own vocal. powers. He displayed sympathetic interpre- tation, comprehesiye enunciation and a sonorous delivery
 The rectal last night also demonstrat- ed one other thing, and that is the wonderful range of MT. Weld's voice. One would judge that the baritone can sing two and one half octaves so easily that all effort is unperceived, while when the occasion arises he pos sibly can reach the third scale And there is a wealth of crelit In that
 The Rhapsody in B Minor" which was rendered on the piano by Walter Ruel sCowles as an introduction to the recital was a arhapsodical ecstacy Mr. Cowles had his instrument completely in hand and every vibration of the wires was true, rhythmical and a con- tinuous delight.
 We shall expect great things from MT. Weld in the future and shall look to these annual recitals with an ex- pectation that borders on eager longing,
