MERCHANTS, WEEK.

Tomorrow the business houses of Norwich inaugurate another Mer- chants Week. The purpose of this special attraction is to advertise the trading advantages which are furnish ed by the stores of this city. Many have been made acquainted with Il / transportation facilities which are available for coming to and leaving the Rose of New England. They have likewise found that Norwich is a busy hive of business, with stores that are well appointed, striving to meet the wants of the trading public and car rying stocks of goods in such variety and assortment as to meet the de- mands of all classes. It has in fact been found that Norwich merchants are able to supply the wants of the purchasing public far better and with @ greater degree of satisfaction than most cities of it's size and in many cases as well as those which are much larger.
 The appeal of the merchants on this occasion, working comparatively for the purpose of increasing the interest in trading in Norwich. is made to all eastern Connecticut. Those who have not done so in the past will find it to their advantage to come and be con- vinced, while those who have become acquainted with the superior trading opportunities here require no second urging.
 Merchants week should see many thousands getting the benefits of the Merchants Week offerings, to say nothing of the rebates which are of fered. The fall and winter stocks of goods were never better and the mer- chants hold out the same hand of welcome that is always to be found.

cussed for the active participation of the club in the work of the present presidential campaign
 The president of the club was au thorized by unanimous vote to ap- point a comittee to wait upon Professor William Howard Taft, ITS, and ask him to accept the honorary presidency of the club.
 The first Yale Republican Club was organized at @ meeting of the Brothers in Unity Society in October, 1860. It Is an interesting coincidence that among the vice presidents of the Club of that year were the Hon. Simeon E. Baldwin, '61, subsequently, Democratic Governor of Connecticut and the Hon. Franklin McVeagh, '62, who was Sec retary of the Treasury in President Taft's Cabinet
 A gift of $125,oo0 to the Alumni Fund Was announced from Robert w. Kelley, '74, of New York City, at the regular October meeting of the Yale Corpora tion held last Monday. Some of this amount is subject to annuities, but the gift is the largest single one to the principal of the A1mni Fund yet made.
 The corporation meeting was given over almost entirely to a discussion of the budget for the present year. This shows estimated expenses of $1,- 999,268.74 with an estimated deficit of $38.752O4.
 The first meeting of the Norwich Club was held last Wednesday eve ming, President R. L. Johnson, IS, pre- siding.
 Plans for the coming year were dis cussed and it was resolved that the club should make a special point this year of interesting Norwich boys in Yale. It was decided that no definite action should be taken until after the next meeting which is to be held the second Wednesday in November.
 The new members of the club are: E. B. Jones, H. Brogan, G. F. Wilcox and J. J. Horigan, all graduates of the Norwich Free Academy

The dramatic spectacle, which is in eharae of Francis Hartman Markoe.

charge Of fr9ncfS F1arTTnan ESrkoe, Yale 1906, Pageant Master, will include the following principal scenes: The Prelude, showing the medieval wedding procession of Margaret ap Ienkyn, the founder of the Yale family is followed by scenes of the founding of the col ony of New Haven with purchase of the land by John Davenport and Theophilus Eaton from the Quinnipiac Indians; the founding of the college by the picturesque ceremony of the gift of books by Congregational clergy men of the colony; the removal by force of the books and the college from Saybrook to New Haven. and the rfrg% ing an allegorical interlude represent ing the coming of the Arts and Sciences from the old world to the new college in America, come the stir ring scenes at the time of the Revolu- tion, and those characteristic of the century. Yale's influence in the life of the nation stands out in such cpl sodeS as the martyrdom of Nathan Hale and that of Theodore Winthrop the first Union officer to fall in the Civil war. These in turn are followed by scenes of modern Yale ending with drill by the Yale Battalion of Field Artillery organized last winter and in service as q part of the Federalized Militia during all of the past summer The pageant closes, showing Yale, after two hundred years of distinguished achievement, surrounded by the col leges her sons have founded, by her contributions 10 the Arts and Sciences and by eminent graduates who have helped to shape the history of the nation, looking fearlessly to her for future world service, while the whole multitude, both of audience and of ptrformers, join in the singing the Yale psalm.
