YALE NAY SOON FOLLOW
EXAMPLE OF HARVARD
VIII, Within Few Days, Take Some
Action Regarding the Question
of Foot Ball.

New Haven. Ct., Jan. 17.--Within a
few days Yale will follow the example
OF Harvard IN taking some action on
the foot bah question. Last Saturday
a general faculty meeting was held here,
and the subject was thoroughly can
vassed and the sentiment taken. Just
what this is is not known, but it was
intimated ia talks with several Yale
professors that radical move against
The continuance Of foot ball under the
present conditions would be possible
The members Of the Yale faculty
who will act on this include all instruc-
tors and professors III the academic
department. Yale professors, when IN
formed Monday night of Harvard's ac.
fion in abolishing intercollegiate matches
unless the rules arc changed, was a
surprise to those not in the radical
Yale faction. That the question Of fax
ing some such action at Yale will Ger.
tainly be brought up, and that it will
probably receive considerable support, is
regarded as probable here.

What Peaceful Citizens Must Learn.

We have had several lessons in tho
conduct Of social and bueinest affairs
in this STATE recently which have been
written in blood. The shooting in
Lancaster teaches US that q merchant
must not neglect to send up trifies or
dered by customers, no matter what
the excuse for not sending them is,
lest he be ehot by the offended party.
we learn from the Gaffney shooting
that one must not demonstrate with O
gentleman for Insulting ladies in his
charge, lest he be shot. Some time
ago we had another lesson which was
that we editors must not criti-
else o man whom we conscien-
tiously believe to be. a menace to the
State lest we be shot and the shooter
be upheld by the juries. 1t takes peo-
pie o long time to learn some lessons
and maybe there will be some more
shooting before the shooters learn that
they must not shoot lest they be hung.
