FUN, SONGS AND MUSIC The annual dinner of the Princeton Alumni Association was held last evening at Welcker’s and upward of forty sons of the old New Jersey college, and a number of invited guests, sat down at the beauti- fully decorated table. It was the twenty- third dinner of the sort, and by long odds the handsomest as well as the most enthu- stastic affair of the sort since the late Gen. Belknap organized the association. They were all boys last night. Some of the boys got their degrees as long back as half century ago; the majority of the crowd had their diplomas signed by the dear old Dr. McCosh, now president emeri- tus, while still others, those who have graduated since 1889, have the name of Dr. Francis L. Patton on their sheepskins. Still they were all of an age last evening, all sons of a common alma mater and brothers to each other. They sang and talked aad ate and drank to the memory of the vener- able institution, which is old, yet young, staid and conservative, yet progressive and enterprising. Their loyalty to the orange and black could not be disputed, and the least mention of the dear old college down in Jersey was sufficient every time to bring forth a rousing “three cheers and a tiger.” Old and Young Were Boys. There war present, as always, Mr. John H. Voorhees, who graduated in 1841, and down at the other end of the table was a son of Senator Gray, himself a Princeton man, Mr. A, C. Gray, who graduated more than fifty years after Mr. Voorhees, and up and down the long tables were men of all the ages between. The crowd treated them all alike, young and old, it made no difference. For example, when the ciga- rettes were passed to Mr. Voorhees, they all shouted in unison: “Oh, Johnny, do you smoke cigarettes? You ought to be asham- ed of yourself.” So it went from the time when dinner was announced until after midnight, when the guests rose from the table, there was a constant succession of songs, speeches, clever stories and sturdy samples of repartee. Naturally the dinner was somewhat in the nature of a celebration of the victories of the foot bali team last fall, and when they sang the good old song, “We Love, We Love, We Love Our Princeton Foot Ball Team,” they sang it with a will and a fervor that must have satisfied Mr. Justice Brewer, the president of the Yale Alumni Association, who was present as a guest, that they meant every word they sang. The familiar rocket cheer of old Nassau, three cheérs ending with “sis, boom, ah,” was shot off on every possible excuse. A Brief B cas Meeting. Prior to the dinner a brief business ses- sion of the association was held. Memorial resolutions were read to mark the death during the year of two members who were actively identified with the interests of Princeton and the local association, Rev. Dr. John H. Cuthbert and Mr. John Johns. The formality of an election was gone through with, resulting in the choice of the following: President,*Joseph K. McCam- mon, class of 1865; vice presidents, John H. Voorhees, class of 1841; Charles Albert, class of 1842; J. C. Welling, class of 1844; Justice A. B. er, class of 1845; Henry B. Munn, class of 1847, and James M. John- ston, class of 1870; executive committe: Henry E. Davis, "76; A. B. Kelly, '70; F. S. Presbrey, ‘79; H. B. Davidson, *80, and Victor Kauffmann, ‘89; treasurer, E. S. McCalmont, ‘77, and secretary, H. C. Stew- art, jr., 1884. At the Dinner. ‘Then the doors of the banquet hall were thrown open and a line was formed to enter the room in state. President McCammon led the way with Dr. Francis L. Patton, the president of Princeton, on his arm. The table was set in the shape of the letter T and handsomely and appropriately deco- rated for the occasion. At the center of the short head table sat Mr. McCammon with Dr. Patton at his right and Justice AS FRIEND MEETS FRIEND. A There is the Same Greeting in All Countries. Invariably an Inquiry About Health—The Danger of Closed Doors and Windows—The One Cure for Neuralgia. “How do you do? is the phrase all over the world. In every language the first greeting in- quires about the health. Winter with closed doors and windows, coal stoves and in-door life endangers health, brings @ bad condition of the blood and a lowering tone to the nervous system. } “The most certain Indication of badly nourished nerves," says Dr. Weir Mitchell, “is neurulgia.”” Nothing robs tired, aching nerves of all irritation \ke appropriate nerve food. Paine’s celery com- pound best meets this need. Neuralgia, rheu- matism, lumbago and kidney troubles, due to joor blood, yield to Puine’s celery compound when nothing else gives relief. MRS. L. VAN ZILE. Mrs. L. Van Zile of 262 Liberty N. J. follows: “I inclose you one of my pictures, that you may | show {it to suffering humanity amd tell what | Puine’s celery compound is doing for me. I am still using it, and it is doing a great work in my | family. I have recommended the remedy to several sufferers. | “Am taking it for neuralgia, with great benefit.”” Paine’s celery compound is the one true specific for all diseases resulting from an impaired nervous fystem or impoverished blood.

Heiskell and Mr. Rudolph Kauffmann. The members of the association present were Charles Abert, '42; Walter H. Acker, "82; William E. Annin, '77; Dr. B®. A.

Voorhees, ‘41; Fred A. Young, 's6; M. L. MeDonald, jr., 80; A. C. Gray, "92; Alexander Britton, '88; and Col. John A. Swope. They Sang Songs. Down the center of the long table ran a wide strip of orange and black satin, and scattered along it at intervals of a few feet were flowers and potted plants, so that the table made a most’ attractive ap- pearance. As usual, the younger members were seated at the lower end of the table, where mirth and hilarity reigned supreme. Facing the president of the association was the indefatigable and handsome secretary, Mr. Henry C. Stewart, jr., whose interest and labors in behalf of the association huve done more than anything else to work up the spirit of enthusiasm that prevails to such a marked degree. In the balcony over- looking the table was stationed a mandolin club, which rend choice selections throughout the evening, the majority of which were old college songs. Whenever they struck a Princeton song the guests joined in with their voices, and the hall resounded with the tuneful strains of “Old Nassau,” the “Triangle Song” and others so familiar and so dear to the heart of every Princetonian. In addition to the old stand-bys there were some variations in- troduced for the occasion that caught on immensely. Thus, for instance, they gave a parody of Daisy Bell, which was a deli- cate little hit off on the foot ball game with the University of Pennsylvania, which ran as follows: “Pennsy, Pennsy, where are your red and blue? You are too easy for us to dally with you. ¥our men they're not in college They haven't got the knowledge, But they'll look sweet at the feet Of the Tiger, siss-boom-ah.” Another parody which took well was a local rendering of “Bull Dog on the Bank.” It went: Oh, Grover on the bank, Queen Lil is in the pool, Saying, “I won't come back Without the head of Dole.” A Unique Menu Card. The feature of the evening, however, was the menu card, which was gotten up on ideas from the head of Mr. Stewart. The cover was made of leather and was the size and shape of a foot ball laced up the back to keep in the pages in book form, for all the world like the sphdge that play- ed such a prominent part om Manhattan field last Thanksgiving day. The inside of the covers was of orange and black. On the front page was a snarling tiger's head handsomely embossed in colors. On the second of the egg-shaped pages was the lst of officers of the association; on the third, a life-like drawing of a line-up on the foot ball field; the fourth, the program of music for the mandolin club, then a picture of Witherspoon Hall, one of the handsomest dormitories in the country; then the menu, printed in orange and black; then a view of the front campus, with old North College, and on the last page a list of guests and members of the association. The dinner cards had in the upper corner an embossed orange and black flag, with the word Princeton running across it. The menu itself was unus! elaborate and well p ‘Then Came the Speeches. President McCammon’s sway is such a kindly one, and he is so popular with all the members of the association that when his form was seen to tower up at the head of the table after the coffee was served he was given such a cordial reception that a@ stranger might have supposed that he was about to make a witty and entertain- ing address. Mr. McCammon, however, does not indulge in speech making, espec- fally when he is surrounded by such e: cellent after-dinner talkers as was th case last evening. He, however, smiled | pleasantly in response to the greeting, and / proceeded to stir up a great commotion by announcing that the first speaker of the evening would be the bright and brainy president of the college. At the mention of Dr. Patton's name the alumni sprang to their feet and, waving their napkins, gave | him three cheers and several extra ones to | make the measure good. President *Patton is an accomplished after-dinner talker, as every one knows, and as he is in the habit of attending the alumni gatherings in various parts of the country, he is probably more or less familiar with receptions of this character. When he was given a chance to be heard | he made a happy, entertaining speech, | which was frequently punctuated with — applause as weil as with comments of more or less relevancy. He expressed his pleasure of ance more meeting the alumni of this city, and sald that he always came here with great pleasure. He enjoyed the trip here, and in this particular he was | not alone, for, as he understood it, the journey from Princeton to Washington Tepresented the {deal trip of every Prince- ton graduate. He spoke of Princeton’s contripution to the personnel of the public service. She had sent men to the White House and to Congress, and her graduates had filled various civic positions. He had hoped that a Princeton graduate would fill the vacant place on the Supreme bench. He alluded to this incident to show that Princeton was true to her traditions, as she had spent much time in preparing men for the great’ places, and neglected the subordinate places. The Fanction of Yale. Yale had pursued the opposite policy, and had aimed to supply the school masters of the country and other minor places, and ‘one result was that her sons now filled nearly all the places on the Supreme bench. President Patton referred, of course, to foot ball victory last fall, and in a rather sarcastic vein spoke of the humanitarian | and ethical criticisms that had been passed | upon this sport. He expressed the hope | that the game would be played again, and with the same fortune. Later in the evening one of the older graduates asked President Ptten if he thought that such contests with all the at- tendant circumstances were a benefit to the young men. Dr. Patton replied in a very earnest and emphatic and eloquent manner, expressing himself in the strongest terms as being fully convinced, after considering all the circumstances connected with the game, that the general result tended to im- prove the morals of the students. Th declaration was received with perhaps the warmest outbu-st of applause that occurred during the entire evening. President Patton before taking his seat gave some notes of interest from the college campus. He spoke of the completion of Alexander Hall, and said as an academic building and for its use as an auditorium this building, in his opin- ion, would be far in advance of anything in this continent or in any other. He ex- pected that the building would be comniet- ed in April, and that the commencement dinner in June would be held there. He then spoke about the proposition cf changing the name of the college so as to secure the title of university und of the widening out of the’scope of the college, not to include a typical law school, for example, but to establish a course of historical and philosophical jurisprudence. He spoke of the important influence which the alumni wielded and of the help they would be ad- vancing the work of the college. He spoke of the place of college men in the world, and said that from the colleges was being rece the purest influence into the river of life. Supreme Court Needs, Occupying a seat on the left of the pres- ident of the association was Mr. Justice Brewer, who represented Yale College. He was introduced as such, and was given a hearty welcome. Justice Brewer's remarks alternated between the grave and gay. He, of course, had something to say about the foot ball game, and said it’as gracefully as was possible for a Yale man on such a theme. He expressed regret that M>. Horn- blower had not been confirmed. He had thought that the doctrine of foreordinution would apply to this case, but it was evident that foreordination did not take tnto ac- count David B. Hill. In_ the event that an- other nomination would be necessary he would suggest that the court needed an in- crease of Gray matter. This pleasant refer- ence to Senator Gray, who was a graduate of the college and who came into the room later in the evening, and whose name has been mentioned {n connection with a Su- preme Court appointment, was warmly re- ceived. Ir concluding, Justice Brewer paid an eloquent and beautiful tribute to the love of mother. In response to a call which was dem- onstrative enough to gratify the most ex- Nature's antidote for urle acid. Je30-4twly All Druggists. acting of popular after-dinner talkers, Mr. W. E. Annin came to his feet. Mr. Annin is not monotonous on such occasions. His theme is always a varied one. He prances from the humorous to the pathetic. He tells a good story, he pours forth the round- ed and polished sentences of fervid elo- quence, and he works beautifully the lach- rymal ares ‘All this he did last evening and besides had time to reply to such comments as plentifully interlarded his speech. Senator Gray was called on and made a happy and appropriate response. Mr. J. L. McAtee, whose name has recently been sent to the Senate in connection with the position of judge in Oklahoma; Rev. Rich- ard D. Harlan and Judge A. C. Bradley re- sponded to toasts. Of course the evening would not be com- plete unless Mr. Henry E. Davis was heard from, but an urgent call from his fellow alumni was necessary before his native modesty could be sufficiently overcome to permit him to rise and speak. He, however, did speak and he spoke very well. —_——>———_ THE WEATHER BUREAU. Mr. Morton Gratified at the Improve- ment in That Service. The Secretary of Agriculture expresses much gratification over what he regards as &@ great improvement in the service of the weather bureau under his administration. Instances of improvement are mentioned as follows: January 24, at 1:30 p. m., the maritime exchanges of New York and Philadelphia were warned of dangerous gales off the middle Atlantic and New England cousts for that night, with a cold wave and snow. At the same time Charleston, Wilminston, Moorhead City, Washington, D. C., Norfolk, Fortress Monroe, West Point and Baltimore were admonished that the wind would shift to the southwest and then northwest, with a cold wave; storm dangerous off the coast Thursday morning. On January 24, at 10:28 a, m., the observ- ers at Richmond, Lynchburg, Nozfolk, Ra- leigh, Charlotte, Southport and Wilmington were notified of a cold wave, with a drcp in the mercury of from 20 to 40 degrees, and instructed to use the entire station furce at each point to wire information to all a gessible neighboring points. The Cape Henry (Va.) office wired New York and Baltimore exchanges, and the Merritt Wrecking Company of Norfolk, that the Norwegian bark Clythia was ashore near Washwoods, N. At 7 p.m. a steamer stranded at Cape Henry, Immediately the observer wired the Me-ritt Wrecking Company at Norfolk, and opened the office for duty. The ship began firing distress rocket: id guns, but the observer red no “Night signals” with which to respond. They have since been furnished him. This proved later the steamer Rappahannock from Newport News to Liverpool, a vessel and cargo valued at $600,000. Through the efforts of the observer the services of the wrecking orgfinization were secured and the efforts of the crews, being redoubled on learning through the weather bureau of the approach of cold wave and high winds, she was pulled off at high water. In a few hours an intensely severe gale with freezing temperature set in and would have inevita- bly caused the entire loss of vessel and cargo had she not been floated xt the pre- vious tide. A salvage of $600,000 was thus effected through the service of the weather bureau in this one instance. The storm of the last forty-eight hours was prognosticated with great deliniteness and precision and warnings sent to every possible point in its track, twenty four hours previous to its culmination. It is safe to say that the weather bureau has saved to commerce, manufactures and agri- culture during the last four months mwure than its entire appropriation for the next fiscal year. The secretary is in receipt of communications from citizens giving sums saved by the preditions of January 22, 1N+4, ranging from $300 saved to a person ship- ping perishable farm products, up to the saving of the Rappahannock and cargo val- ued at $600,000. People living in ihe path of the storm of yesterday and the day be- fore will testify that they received timely warning of its intensity and danye>. “Thus the science of forcasting comcs to the front,” said Secretary Morton. “The weather bureau deals with the storms of this planet, and not with dreary dreams as to the atmosphere of the moon, terrestrial magnetism, nor as to storms which may occur during the next century.” * —_—_—_—__-e—______ Excitement Over a Mexican Gi There is great religious excitement among the people of the town of Jerez, Mexico, and surrounding country, over the appear- ance among them of a bequtiful girl, who pronounces herself to be their patron saint, Anita. The girl has performed some re- markable cures of serious diseases by sim- piy laying on her hands, and the Indians of that section are wild over her. She seems to possess the same power as the so-called who created such a sensation in Northern Mexico about a year ago. Anita is a native of Monte Escobedo, and began exercising her power over the Indians only a few weeks ago. coe = Fire at San Antonio. A special from San Antonio, Texas, says: Fire early today destroyed the St. Leonard and Central Hotels, together with all their furnishings. The hotels adjoin, and were filled with guests, all of whom escaped, but in their night clothes and without baggage. The loss is placed at $100,000; The new court house was damaged $15,000. The Josses are about one-half covered by insur- ance. Fireman Zantzinger,Ed. Hargrave and K. E. Bastian were buried beneath the falling debris and seriously, perhaps fatally in- jured. The fire began in the Central Hotel. Cook your food ever So nicely- MO ae INOIGESTION will cause Gouble which WOFFS. MALT E. welh. FER, = evn | What does indigestion mean?
