On yesterday's splendid programme at the Breed theater appeared Master Harry Noonan, the popular boy so- prano, who on a previous engagement at the Breed, sang to thousands of admirers, many of whom were present last evening to give him an ovation. He sang a very catchy nautical song, wearing the natty little suit presented him by the officers of the United States cruiser Salem, winning great spplause and receiving numerous en- eores, He also sang the very new and delightful iliustrated song, Put on Your Old Gray Bonnet, an appro- priate sequel to the ever popular Sil- ver Threads Among the Gold, and equally as sweet. The slides that ac- eompany this song are marvels of the slide maker’s art and are largely in- strumental in making the success of the mong. E One of the handsomest motion pic- tures of the season is the beautiful Blograph subject, The Indian’s View, revealing & story of the crowding of the Indians from their original home- lands, until the rapidly decreasing tribe reaches the western coast, with no more land and no home, the older ehieftains falling by the wayside. It is, without doubt, one of the most ac- eurate presentations of the poetical side of the Indians’ life ever photo- graphed, the grandeur of the well- chosen scenes causing many to ex- claim and admire. SHORTER HOURS, MORE PAY. New Haven Road Officials to Be Offi- cially Notified Today. Boston, Dec. 20.—The officials of the Boston & Maine and New York, New Haven & Hartford railroads will be officially notified tomerrow by repre- gentatives of the Conductors’ and Trainmen's organizations of a desire for a revision of the existing wage scale and working agreements, calling in general for a ten-hour work day and a ten per cent. increase in wages. The notice tomorrow will constitute the official thirty days’ notice required in the agreements with the railroads. AN S R Learning to Help Themselves. A despatch from New Haven brings the agreeable information that al- ready 50 per cent. of the students ac- cepting aid from the university funds have chosen to take the money as a loan instead of as a gift. It is fur- ther said that the majority of those mssisted in the lower (and larger) two classes instead have taken the goods as a gift, but a majority of those mssisted in the upper two classes have made loans. This is as it ought to be, angd it is a sign of the useful work of the university in education. After they have been in the college a suffi- olent. time the boys develop a higher standard; they see things of the world mors clearly, and they choose wisely. This lending instead of giving out- right, which has grown out of the agi- tation begun by the alumni advisory board several years ago, has a number of merits. In the first place and mani- festly it gives the boy aided a better sense of the value of what he is get- ting. It is not thrown at him, but it must be worked for. It is a pity that all university assistance cannot be thus hedged in. There are plenty of cases where repayment would not be possi- ble, just as there are in the world of e boy who wants help understand that the help is valuable, and must eventually be paid for if he is able, would be tremendously advantageous to the boy. Incidentally, if a large part of the beneficiary funds are lent, it will not take many years as the time of universities is measured for the available funds to assume large dimensions and thus the field will be made vastly wider while the advan- tage will be far gréater in each case. It is possible for the imaginative to foresee in this arrangement a fair set-off to the free education schemes of state supported institutions at the west. When a university can say that whoever applies will have sufficient money lent him to earry him through, then nobody will be kept from its déors by poverty—The Courant. A Poser for Mr. Sherman. “We ' intend,” says Vice President Sherman, “to start the rehabilitation of our merchant marine.” If “we” means the republican party, it is in order for Mr. Sherman to ex— plain how it has happened that, with that party in absolute control of every department of the government for for- ty-nine years, less eight, and having taken over the administration of pub- lic affeirs at a time when the flag of our merchant marine floated on every sea and when its tonnage far exceeded that of any other country in the world, American shipping engaged in foreign trade should during that period, under the es of successlve republican administrations, have steadily dwindled until today #t is practically nil.—Nor- folk Virginian Pilot. “Pork,” as Once Described.
