"WHY MEN DO NOT

ferred to the recent pony dinner given oy
wealthy society people of Nrv YORK AZ
which horses were fed from silver basins
and given water from pals hooped with
gold At the time this dinner was III
progress. he said. there Were thousands
of children i'm New York that were nun
gry and nearly naked.
II Is matters like this that arouse DIS
content in the masses, he declared, ana
this discomfort is expressed against the
church 1t Is regarded as rich man
institution and the pastor Is looked upon
as the paid servant of the congregation
and Is thought to be afraid TO say" any
thing that will offend his wealthy near

This is entirely untrue, said Or. Me'-

have been driven back toward their homes

along the line OF retreat. He estimates
that 250.OO0 persons arc likely 10 be DOOM
ed at Sng-Kiang alone and 100000 at Al
tung. where small relief works have been
started. But the official records are gen.
orally puerile and amateurish.
The distress Is largely due to lack OF
means OF communication and the fear
that the Chinese officials might approprt-
ate the funds for any works undertaken.
The dykes being dlapidated renewed

HARVARD BREAKS
WITH YALE

Harvard officially announced yesterday
st Cambridge that she had broken her
athletic agreement with Yale which call
ed Tor annual meetings between the Grim
ron and the Blue In the four major
sports OF football. rowing, baseball and
track athletics.
The agreement ran for periods OF two
years. but at the end OF each OF these
periods IL was self-resuming unless no.
fice TO the contrary was given by one Of
tho parties at least six weeks before the
expiration OF the term. One OF these two
year periods would have expired on the
18th OF next March.
Harvard gave to Yale as her reason
for this act. that the Harvard overseors
had forbidden the Crimson athletic COM
mittse 20 make arrangements for inter-
collegiate athletic contests after the FIRST
of November, 1906.
Permission has been given the crow.
baseball nine and track team TO meet
Yale this coming spring and these con-
tests will take place.
This leaves Harvard and Yale with no
definite athletic agreement and makes a
break between the two I'm football all the
more likely. In fact II is taken In many
quarters as a strong Indication that there
will be no football games between the
Crimson and the Blue next fali.

NO YALE-H HARVARD
AGREEMENT YET

A letter has been received from
Prof. II. c. White OF the Harvard ath-
letic committee. says the Yale Alumni
weekly. notifying Yale that owing to
the unsettled conditions of athletics
at Harvard the committee was not in
position 10 renew the two-year
agreement with Yale. This, it is
pointed out, does not mean break
between the two universities.
The two-year agreement would IN
the natural course OF events have re-
newed itself Feb. l, but the Harvard
committee felt that in the present un-
certainty of Harvard's continuance in
intercollegiate sports the only thing
TO do was 10 give the notice pending
the report of the joint committee OF
the corporations board OF overseefs.
This Joint committee, appointed last
year. whose duty il was TO investi-
gate the whole subject of intercol-
lcgiate athletics at Harvard. was 10
have reported Dec. 1. 1905. Tho com
mittee was unable TO cover all the
ground necessary inside the limit set
and the time was extended TO April l.
Meanwhile Harvard managers are
permitted TO fulfll their spring en-
gagements with Yale. A member of
the Harvard athletic committee states
that he thinks the whole matter viii
be settled before the end OF March.

Ordinarily the chances would be favor

that special appeal has been made by
the women To have their 1907 national

the vote i'm favor or an Eastern course

To be sure, there is no rule 10 prevent

such a state OF things Is highly improba-
BILE.
Tho Euclid Country club Is In every
way suited for the amateur event. and
for that matter so is the Apawamis club.
Then there is the Fox Hills course, which,
with a little iengthenina would make an
ideal spot. New Workers would be glad
20 see the blue ribbon event awarded To
either Apawamis or Fox Hills, but should
1t be offered 20 a Boston club little OPP

that the amateur championship has never
