The Cfcada Fable.

Several species of insects have ap- paratus for producing sounds similar to that of the grasshopper or modif1ca- tions of it. Of different type is that with which the cicadas are endowed. Only the males of this family are sing CTS, for which the Greek poets called them happy because their females were dumb. With the ancients a cicada sit ting on Q harp was the symbol of mu- sic. A pretty fable tells of the con- test between two cithara players, in which the curious event happened that when one of the contestants broke a string a singing cicada sprang on his harp and helped him out so that he gained the prize.

YALE STUDENTS ARE SNOBS FEM MA
 GOLDMAN SAYS

HER DELIVER AN ADDRESS ON
 ANARCHY AND SHE SCORED
 THE STUDENTS FOR BEING
 BULDOzED BY THE POLICE.
 Special from United Press)
 New Haven, May 15.-The Yale stu dents are snobs and the New Haven people 'Slavishly submissive.' This sums up Emma Goldman's opinion of the inhabitants of this city and the students at the University. Emma was to deliver a speech at local hall last night but a squad of bluecoats station ed at the door prevented anyone but the orator and her manager, pr. Ben Ritman from entering. About 5000 were turned away and when Miss Goldman was asked to express her opinion of the proceedings she said:
 ''I have done my share and if these people choose to be bulldozed by the police I cannot help it.. If such a thing should be done in a European University town the students would have nobbed the police. But nothing can be expected of Yale. Everyone knows that it is made up of nothing but snobs and aristocrats.''
