CELESTIAL CALAMITY AT YALE.
Scion Of Royal Family Plunged on
Head in Deep Marsh Hole.

New Haven, Conn.-An internation-
al calamity marked the first Of the
Yale geological outings, when a num-
Der of the students under the guidance
of Prof. Barrett started on an eXpedi-
ton to the quarries along Stony creek.
With the party was Ponson Carlos
Chu of Shanghai, a scion Of the royal
family of China, whose father is high
in the government life Of the coun-
try.
Riding to the Quarries in a freight
car, the students spent several hours,
starting back through the marshes for
a short cut to the railroad. Ponson is
one of the dandiest sports Yale has
seen in several years, and he nearly
tainted at the sight of the marsh and
looked at his new fall costume. Ac-
cepting the offer of Arthur Mullin, of
Salem, O., to carry him across on his
bac., all went well until Mullin
stepped into an unseen hole to his
waist and the royal lad from China
was thrown head foremost, his head
going deep into the mud and his
princely legs sticking up in the air.
He was rescued, but his face had
changed from the Mongolian yellow to
the sambo hue of the Ethiopian.
Ponson says geology is hard

pulque Shops Of Mexico.

The government of the federal dis
trict is considering the most practical
and lawful way to remove the pulque
shops from the central part of the City
Of Mexico.
The government has not given IL
eenses to establish any new pulQue
shops in the central section of the
city. and as soon as any of the jul
auerias are closed on account of the
end of the contract for rent or any
other cause, the government cancels
the license. But there are some OF
those shops, the owners of which have
contracts for rent covering ten, fifteen
and twenty years, and some of them
are owners of the buildings occupied
The government in this case can
not count on the ending Of the con
tract to close the shops. and is con
Utdering another way to remove them
from that part Of the city and Still re-
spect the rights of the proprietors.-

fine specimen, weighing more than
$50 pounds, was captured in the
Stickline river, on the border line

due to starvation. He refused to
eat bite while in captivity. On only
two or three occasions did the goat
drink any water, either. 1t was eX.

the way it struck me. There is no
longer any doubt about the future of
the camp, and maybe the mills do
not look good to the eye. The peo-

ever. The miners did the right thing
