ELKS' CONVENTION.
4 BIG FUND RAISED TO ENTER-
 TAIN THE VISITORS.

The old Independence Bell VIII Be Ready for Inspection, and no Trou- ble or 7xpense Will Be Spared in Ef-
 fort to Make the Event a Success.
 Philadelphia, Pa., April 2S,-The Elks and city officials propose to make the big Elk convention in July winner. The local Elks feel that the city ought to do something handsome in the way of beautifying the streets and public buildings.
 They point out that the Elks' conven- ton will be the biggest thing PhiIa- delphia has seen since the Centennial Exposition In 1876. For the entire week, beginning July 13, there will be 25O,OOO visitors in the city, That figure is regarded as a conservative estimate. and it is probable that many of the 25OOOo will stay more than a week. Such an influx means millions of dol- lars.
 As for the Elks themselves every one of them is working like mad to make the convention a success and to as- sure the visitors a good tome while they are here. They have raised a tremendous fund for. entertainment, prizes and decorations, and the sum which they will expend on the Court of Honor alone will be considerable, The court will extend on Broad street from Spruce to Vine, and will be bril- | liantly Illuminated at night. It will be far and away grander and more impos- ing than the court of honor that stood in Broad street during the Peace Jubi- I lee-a court which was much admired.
 Now we argue" said Chester F, Ray, head of the Executive committee of Elks, that when the lodge and busi- ness men generally are doing so much it is only fair that the city should do 1 its part, too.'
 | Another thing that was worrying the Elks was the uncertainty as to whether or not the Liberty Bell would be sent to
 
 American called attention to the absur- dlty of sending the bell to Jamestown when 250,00 visitors would be anxious to see it in it's native setting, and a committee of Elks took up the matter with the city authorities.
 1 It was announced yesterday that the administration had given positive as- surance that, in case the bell was lent to Jamestown-and no such action has been taken as yet--it will certainly be in Independence Hall during the week of the Elks' convention.
 This promise from the local authori-e ties has rejoioed Lodge No. 2 and the executive committee, for they felt that the absence of the Liberty Bell during their annual conclave would mar the entire affair.
 Arrangements have been made with the Trunk Line association whereby every railroad will make a special Elks' rate beyond 100 miles from Philadel- phia, of a single fare, plus $1 for the round trip. These tickets will be good from July IS to July 23, inclusive, and by the payment of an extra dollar they can be extended to July 31.

athletics has developed, and indeed in- terest in many other subjects that may properly claim the attention of the students. Life generally has become more complicated and has presented more avenues for individual effort and individual application than fifty years ago. Athletics have developed rapidly because they furnish a means of con- petition between our university and other universities and where you have a spirit of competition there is apt to be going to extremes which needs moderation; but the Yale method of i dealing with this matter generally has been to leave to the student body a large discretion with the hope, which has been justified, that the public opin- ion of the country would have it's ef- feet upon the students and lead them to place restraint upon eXcesses in re- spect to athletics.
 T have sometimes thought that there has been change since my day in the college reward as granted by the stu dents themselves for excellence in schol- arships, and perhaps we are passing through a period in this respect from which there will be a reaction. I at tended a meeting of the Phi Beta Kap- pa association few months ago, and was gratified to see the spirit of appre- ciation of high scholarship that was displayed by the large number of stu dents whom I met on that interesting occasion, and was somewhat startled to hear Prof, Peck deliver ain oration in Latin the fine points and pokes of which I was for some reason not able to follow. I was fortunte enough to be able to give as an excuse that the pronunciation was very different from that which we learned from Tommy Thacher in my day.
 Taken as a whole, Yale men are not wealthy. l think generally they have acquired more of influence than of riches. and therefore we are not able i to give as much to the university as she ought to have, but through the class organizations which are now talk l ing an active interest in presenting to the university at each class reunion i believe that a successful method has been brought about for materially i'm proving the finances of the university.
 Tt is now more than a dozen years ago since the Yale men of Cincinnati met and passed a resolution that ir their opinion the person to be selected to succeed President Dwight was Ar thur T. Hadley of the class of '76. This was the first formal expression of opin- ior from any part of the country. We carnot say that this selection was due to that resolution, but we can take pride in the fact that that resolution expressed the general opinion of the alumni of Yale and of the corporation and we can take further pride in the triumphant vindication Of our judgment which the administration of President Hadley so abundantly furnishes"

Harvard Professor of Philosophy on

Harvard Professor of Philosophy on
 "The Place of Death in the World.
 The Rev. George H. Palmer of the de- partment of philosophy at Harvard preached yesterday morning at Battell chapel. His subject was "The True Place of Death in the World" Death, as an institution he said, we know to be necessary and only the renewing force of nature. As a personal matter, the justice or injustice of the loss of a dear friend, for example, we cannot know But the influence of the life which has ended is greater than ever before. It is an inspiration for good for it is the good that men do which lives after then and the evil that is in- tered with their bones
 Prof. Palmer's sermon was remark able for it's literary qualities no less than for its philosophic treatment of so great a subject AS a lecturer he is we'll known at Yale. One year ago he delivered the Harvard lectures on "Some Aspects of Ethics

HAWAHANS
ARE WANTED
STEAMSHIP LINES WANTS 10
SECURE ISLAND SAILORS, BUT
BALKED BY SEATTLE OFFICIAL.

Hawaiian sailors are greatly desir-
ed by the American-Hawaiian steam
ships and the Hawaiians, in turn,
look upon the All. with kindly eyes.
When leaving Seattle, Captain Mich
OILS of the S. S. Alaskan, appeared be-
fore the U. S. Shipping Commissioner
there and, without any anticipation OF
objection, stated that he wished to
sign on a crew for the port Of Homo
lulu, coastwise.
For some reason that has local
wits guessing, the Seattle Commission
er declared that he would not sign on
men to Honolulu only.
The idea of any such attitude has
set the Honolulu waterfront in roar
and they are wondering what the Seat
tie Commissioner smokes.
The Alaskan had to have a crew
and Captain Nichols had no further
argument with the Commissioner than
to express mis- surprise at the new law
promulgated by that autocrat of the
Seattle front.
The crew was, therefore, signed 1ol
the entire trip. The Alaskan wanted
to take on Hawaiian sailors here Du,
cannot ship new men unless those al
ready signed on are discharged by mu-
tual consent or are fired for cause.
The matter will be reported tC
Washington.

FIND CHINESE BODY
WITH THROAT CUT
THOUGHT AT FIRST TO BE THAT
OF ESCAPED BURGLAR-USED
sCYCLE-INQUEsT TONIGHT.

Wong Hoo, as present theories have
it, grew tired of waiting lor the scythe
of death and scycled out his life in a
bunch Of grass in Palolo valley, his
body being found this morning by Chi
nese living near who knew him.
Wong Hoos body was found with
the throat slashed. Near at hand was
a small scycle, the curved blade of
which was covered with blood. 1t had
been newly sharpened. Other articles
close by were a bamboo hat and BAN
boo wrist guards and a pole used for
carrying laden baskets, the kind used
by Chinese field laborers and fruit
peddlers.
Deputy Sheriff Jarrett is in charge
of the case and an inquest will be held
at the police station at z o'clock this
evening. There is nothing at present
to indicate anything but suicide. The
inquest may develop some interesting
facts, however. No arrests have been
made.
When it was first reported that the
body of a Chinese had been found in
Palolo valley itw as thought that it
might be that of the escaped Chinese
burglar, Chu SEQ.
