TAFT HOLDS BABY Triennial Class Cherub of 1902 s. Taken on Knee of the
 War Secretary.
SCENE AT BASEBALL GAME
Child Taken to tho Presidential Nomincc's Seat by His
 Father.

Of all the children who visited Yale field yesterday afternoon or attended any part of the Yale Commencement exercises the most to be cnvied is the class baby of 1902 S., Charles Ellicjtt jr., of New York. Like his father Charley Ellicott has very winning ways, and was such success at the triennial celebration three years ago when he was awarded the class cup. that his father decided to bring him back to Commencement again this year So back he came in the class dress, that of Turk, and yesterday thought he had reached the summit of happiness when allowed to toss the ball on to the diamond immediately precel- ing the game. Beside this he was in- troduced to the 'ump" and had long chat about the usefulness of the na- tional game as part of Nthe college curriculum.
 But the greatest honor of the day came when his father carried him over by the class stand of 'IS and presented him to Secretary Taft for approval Tho approval was instantly forthcoming for the great war secretary's love for chll-

STRUCK BY PASSING CAR
Trolley Conductor Goes 10 Hospital
 With Scalp Wound.

While changing seats in his car near the end of the run preparatory to re- turning to Westville, Conductor E. s. Johnson of the Connecticut company was knocked from the inside running board of his car at the corner of Chapel and State streets about 10 o'clock last night and sustained a severe scalp wound and other bruises. The car is one of those which end their run at State street and the conductor was turning the seats for the return trip and apparently was on the inside run ming board. A Shelton avenue bound car coming from State street into Chapel struck him as 1t swung around the corner and he was thrown to the pavement. He was taken to the New Haven hospital in the police ambulance but his condition was not considered very serious.

"BIG BILL" CHEERED LONG

The Yale Graduate Taft club. alias the class of 1492, met last evening In the Yale dining hall, 400 and more strong It was the largest dinner of the non-reunion classes that has been held since the inception of 1902-idea. The diners ranged from the class of 1857, which was represented by two members, down to the class of 1908. which lacked day of being of the graduate body yet was invited to at- tend out of courtesy.
 One of the best showings of the classes present was made by 1895 s, which has brought forth much favor able comment. Back on its thir- teenth anniversary and thus not being regular reunion class, there were forty-seven members present. | The enthusiasm of the occasion was somewhat diminished by the excess sive heat, but in spite of it, the grad uates held together well until late hour. Every time Tafts name was mentioned there was a round of cheers. Again and again, in spite of the fact that the presidential nominee, could not be present, being kept at his own class dinner at the Country club, the verse rang out in song: Everybody takes his hat off to Taft" It was not so much the Taft who Is a republican that was cheered as it was the Taft that is a Yale man
 One of the verses about Taft that was distributed and sung with great gusto went as follows: Get on your running togs, Willie,
 Round and round and round. The boys who are true to the red,
 white and blue,
 Are everywhere shouting for you. The old Ship of State needs a we'll
 rounded boy,
 Wherever you go men cry: Pilot
 Ahoy
 For you're the wel-rounded one
 Willie,
 Round and round and round.
 The evenings hilarity was led of fttingly with the singing of Bright College Years" led by the ex-glee clut men who were present, marshaled IT front of the head table with William N Runyon, '02, at their head with tho high-soundng title of director of thu choir" And if there was any grat who went into the singing of that Val, hymn with such vim that his voca organs were put out of commission fol the rest of the evening he simply knew that he had been incapacitated in { good cause and saw no reason to re, gret it.
 The class of 1906 led off the class : cheering. As is usual al 1492 dinners the cheering by classes took much tim, and more energy and critical listener could find a great difference betweei the way In which the well-known Yalt l cheer was given ten years ago and tn, way 1t Is given today.
 } Then there was long cheer for "Bis ; Bill,' which was followed by the sing } ing of Romeo and Juliet" by Direc tor Runyon in his own inmitable way : Ed. Phelps, S6. told a story that con : vulsed his listeners as to an expert ence he had once wearing the war sec , retary's shirt.

ANTl-GAMBLING WINS
Louisiana House and Senate Pass Reform Law.

Baton Rouge. La. June 23.--After campaign lasting several months, the close of which was marked by a bitter fight, the so-called locke anti racing bill, was this afternoon passed by the Louisiana state senate. The bill passed the house several weeks ago and now only requires the sigma ture of the governor to become law There appears no doubt that the gov ernor will sign the bill immediately.
 It required twenty-one votes to get the bill through the senate. and the last twenty-four hours were marked by desperate and finally successful effort to muster the necessary strength.
 The result of the vote was greeted with applause. The bill prohibits bookmaking, paris mutual machines or gambling in any form on races.

without division-and. in fact, with the active
support of Senators Bacon and Simmons. The
ship subsidy. under whatever disguise. Ia nothing
more nor less than a vicious extension OF the pro-
tcctive theory of government. taxing the many
for the benefit of the few, and n false and arti-
fetal method OF building up n merchant marine
in defiance of the easy and natural method that
ought to be followed. The major argument of
the subsidy overwhelmingly that the great
seafaring nations. England. Germany. and Nor
way, maintain their superiority on tho sea by
means Of subsidies-is now clearly shown to be
false. "Lcss than 8 per cent of the gross tonnage
controlled on the high seas by these three ma
i!ons receives any subsidy" England and Ger
many rather have built up their great shipping
trade by allowing their citizens To buy ships In
tho cheapest market. aud as soon IA the United
States follows the same policy. she will no, have
TO resort TO the artificial method OF !ngeniously-
disguised subsidies TO develop her merchant
marine.
