‘nrn;ith &ulletin and Goufief. 116 YEARS OLD. oo — FIRE PREVENTATIVES. Since the recent serious fires in New York and elsewlere it has been thought advisable to issuo a few “Don’ts” for the prevention of fires, and these are to be placed in thou- sandg of New York kitchens upon & pretty placard. They certainly should be where they can be seéh frequently instead of once in a while: year. ‘e ba tien price, 13¢ & week; Goo u “Don’t block the fire escapes; you may need them yourself tonight.

CIRCULATION 1901, average P ] THE COMMISSION OF EFFICENCY, President Taft leaves no doubt the commission of efficiency earned its sal- ary since supervision saved the government two millions. It is mot surprising that in a great government like this and the methods of selecting public officials that mil- llons of dollars are annually wasted; and the evidence is sufficient that the continuation of this commission is proven to be & wise administrative recommendation. Once in a while it appears to get a public official like Postmaster Gemeral Hitcheock who has the ability to look after detalls and make a great enter- prise pay where it has been losing over a million a month, The selection of men known to be competent to look after the finances of the nation is something which looks like good policy to the people; and while the democrats regard this as a sign of general incompetence in public management, it is an incompetence which has shown itself for a cen- tury, and which cannot be overcome y any popular elective method. President Taft will have the sup- port of the country in his recomunen- dations for economy. its DEMOCRATIC HARMONY. Woodrow Wilson, the most brilliant star in the democratic firmament, is now being aired by his former sup- porters because he does not measure up to their expectations. Harper's Weekly hag been obliged to say to its readers: “The name of Woodrow Wilson as our candidate for president was taken from the head of these columns in re- sponse to a statement made to us di- rectly by Governor Wilson, to the effect that our support was affecting hig candidacy injuriously, The only ourse left open to us, in simple fair- ness to Mr. Wilson no less than in counsideration of our own self-respect, was to cease to advocate his nomina- tion.” Since Candidate Wi edly poor son s confess himself and is so fearful of having it thought he is a capitalistic candidatc, it might be well to inquire who it is that is financing his cam- vaign 1 is promoted by a publicity bureau reg 3 Speakin situation, the Providen That | ngle ag eformers are not atitude, even in | ing him on his knees now should not tation of: Tavers. to| be taken too séxipusy. gh for an aspiring| ,_ = —————— 3 by his progres.| The fact that Lorimer was a poo . 2 advocacy of Har- boy and good to his mother mak it| e (ly was hurting him. all the more surprising he was so W S asi Mr Wilsor lack of | @busive of h own character, en He NVatterso deserts i el Ay i asioe| The Block Island cable is out of 4 b service, and since it doesn't pay 1t is| 56 of @ hot old time | ROt likely to be soon repaired unless | HOME MISSIONARY WORK, 's somewhat surprising that home not have one m doors to sed to go his " Norwich, Friday, Jan, 19, 1912, “Don’t - keep matches except in tin box with cover attached. “Don’t toss awdy a match unless completely extinguished, and then toss it into a metal or porcelain recepta- cle. “Don’t fill lamps or oil stoves while lighted. “Don’'t use kerosene oil in lighting “Dow't put hot ashes in & dumb waiter. | “Don't accumulate old beds and bed- ding or other trash in cellars, “Don’t allow delivery boys to tie | back the dumbwaiter door in cellar; | by this means fires have spread throughout buildings. | “Don’t neglect to have the chimney | flue cleaned once a year.

The superman is a modern con- ception and it is interesting to mnote the different definitions of him. Pres- ident Baer of the Reading railroad who since the great coal strike has been dubbed “the divine guardian of the coal deposits of the nation,” in a recent address spoke of John Wana- maker as a type of the superman, and in closing remarks he said: “This world must always be gov- erned by a few superior men, men who will say Tl find a way or make one.” " Here we see Mr. Baer endorsing the divinity of wealth and power and standing for the rule of the minority instead of the majority. Although professedly religious, Pres- ident Baer has lost sight of the fact that the Master was not a man of power through wealth, but a man of power through love; and he appears to have no conception of a superman with a nobility and love for his fellow man which may be called God-likeness and which will tend to larger benefits and larger freedom for all—the direc- tors of a government of love instead of force, The Wanamakers are superior men —men of courage, foresight and judg- ment, men of great executive force and the most successful wordly abilities; but they are not the men who will lead the way to the millenium. If there is to be a millenium it must be produced on lines exactly the opposite of Wanamalker lines. EDITORIAL NOTES. The man with a fistful of money is a ‘booster if he stays at home and spends it. The high cost of living doesn’t make the low temperature any more endur- able. It is hoped congress will forget poli- tics long enough this winter to pass a parcels post law. Happy thought for today: The man who thinks his milkman is overpaid needs a new thinker.

What is the meaning of the word na- ture in these connsctions? (A. P. N.) Answer.—The word ‘nature” in its true sense, as applied to creatures, or beings, signifles the kind of organism and sphere of existence in which they live and move and have their being. Thus when human nature is referred to it signifies the conditions of exist- ence relating to the human race. The angelic nature is in a higher and differ- ent sphere of existence than that of humanity. (Psalm viii.) As there is a vast difference between the condi- tions of existence of a fish and a bird, 80 we may reasonably suppose there is just as wide a’difference beiween the human and angelic. The Divine nature fe the highest of all natures, and ig different from all others in this regard—it possesses inherent life and is, therefore, immortal. Whereas all other natures possess life that is not inherent, but is sustained by partak- ing of the life-giving elements peculiar to the different natures. A blending The Bulletin's Special Yale The Annual Social Events Are Over and the Prom Girls Have Departed—The Prom Program is Splendidly Car- ried Qut—Gerard E. Jensen’s Recital—The Rearrange- ment of the College Year—The Annual Banquet of the Yale Alumni--President Taft at New Haven—Cecil Young Will Have a Year’s Work in Alaska. Yale College, Jan, 18.—Yale's great social festivities of the year are over, and the Prom. girls have left New Haven and the college to its custom- ary routine and quietness until the twelvemonth hence, when a new jun- ior class will welcome its fair guests from all over the land to this oldest and most magnificent function of so- cial life at Yale. Starting Jast Saturday with two pres- entations by the Yale Dramatic asso- ciation of their Christmas trip play, The Devil's Disciple, the social events ! reached their climax and their end in the gorgeous junior Prom. Tuesday evening at the armory. Never before had there been quite such an extensive programme arranged for the entertain- ment of the visiting guests, and the Prom. girls could have had but few dull moments. Every detail was made a success by the Prom. and other com- mittees. Saturday’s dramatics won the praise of the two Prom. committees, and at Yale field the visitors cheered on the| hockey team to victory over Massa- chusetts Institute of Technology in the | first game played at the new rink. Sunday morning there was the typ- ical Promenade congregation in Wool- sey to hear Dr. Henry Sloane Coffin of New York city. On Monday there was a round of afternoon teas at the homes of vari- ous New Haven hostesses and in the Sheffield fraternity houses, together with an organ recital in Woolsey. The Glee, Banjo and Mandolin club concert in the evening was thoroughly enjoy- able, and this was followed by the senior dance in the ball room of the new Hotel Taft, opposite Osborn hall, on Chapel street, the junior german in ‘Woolsey, the sophomore german at the New Haven Lawn club, and smaller germans given by the Sheffield soci- eties. Following more teas, the Prom. came Tuesday night, and it eclipsed in splendor all the previous events. Nearly five hundred couples took part in the grand promenade in the beauti- fully decorated armory at 10 o'clock, and the display of gowns was said to have been one of the most handsome in years. There were forty-two dances on the programme, two encores being given each number, and Home, Sweet Home, was not reached until 5.30 o'clock Wednesday morning. It was a memorabje occasion for the juniors and the 450 Prom. girls who came from 29 states of the Union, In the series of freshman English readings, Gerard B. Jensen, instructor in the college English department, gave the third on Monday evening. The reading was from Matthew Arn- old’s “Balder Dead,” being illustrative of the Scandinavien mythology which is encountered in the study of Car- Iyle. At Philadelphia Saturday night Yale lost its second game of the intercol- legiate basketball series to the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania. The score was 21-18, the game being characterized by the number of fouls, Yale being pen- alized for 22 and Pennsylvania for 19. The next game is at New Haven with Cornell on Friday. At present Yale stands at the foot of the list, while Cornell is second. Dartmouth leads, with three games won and one lost. In regard to a rearrangement of the college year, it is stated that a plan is to be presented to the faculty short- i 1v, which will favor placing the semi- annual examinations in a week in the middl e of the year, instead of before “hristmas vacation. The same plan was voted down by teh faculty sev- eral years ago, but the adherents of the plan seem to have arisen again with renewed vigor. At the present time the college year is divided into thirds, with examina- tions in December and June. It is considered possibly that the postpone- ment of examinations would allow the longer Christmas vacation, of which the western students have been de- sirous, Then the Prom. festivities, which are always a distraction from college work, could come after the mid-year examinations, without in- truding so serfously on studies. The new method would bring the fall term to an end at one time for evervhody, vhile under the present systm some are held much longer for examina- between Yale and the city more har- monious. The work of the committee on bus- Yale men who have positions to and Yale men who want to fill them has been of an encouraging nature during the past year. Two hundred and sixty-six made use of the ser- vices of the committee, 156 being ap- plicants for positions. Of the 110 po- sitions open, 40 were filled. A wider knowledge of the work of the commit- tee will greatly increase the scope of its activities and benefits. Its head- quarters are at the Yale club, 80 West 44th street, New York city. President Taft will be welcomed to New Haven today and tonight, at the banquet of the New Haven chamber of commerce, at which he will be the guest of honor, and principal speaker. Senator Bailey and Dr. Wise of New York will also be present. Tomorrow the president will attend the January meeting of the Yale corporation and | remain at lunch as the guest of President Hadley. A proposal that will increase the ef- ficiency of the Yale Medical school is that of the umnion of the New Haven general hospital and the Medical school, whereby the school will nom- inate the hospital staff, subject to con- firmation of the hospital board of di- rectors. The school already has some of the hospital appointments, and their extension will result in still better practical instruction for the medical students, Cecil G. Young of Norwich, Shef- field Scientific schoo]l 1910, has been given the choice by the United States government of a three years appoint- ment in the Philippines or a year's work in Alagke, in the department of surveys. 'Mr. Young will probably ac- cept the latter appointment and go to Alaska in the course of several months, He is at present enga in the work of the department in Virginia What is described as “debris” by the Yale News has been gathered up “after the Prom.” It includes diamona brooches, an exquisite bracelet, deli- cate fans, fancy opera bags, shell combs, a veritable collection of jew- elry, daimty handkerchiefs and fancy hairpins. Among the collection is a silk hat, a gentleman’s shirt, canes, gloves, arctics, etc. The committee says it is cramped for room in which to keep the ownerless articles. FRANCE INCENSED AGAINST ITALIANS. Claim Seizure of Steamship by italian Warships Was Unwarranted. Paris, Jan, 18.—France is beginning to show considerable annoyance con- cerning the seizure of the steamship Carthage by Itallan warships. It is asserted with emphasis that the ar- rest or the vessel was entirely un- justified, in the first place because eroplanes were not mentioned in the ist of contraband articles which was furnished to France by the Italian government at the outbreak of the war between Italy and Turkey. In the second place, the conference of Lon- don in 1909 declared that aeruplanes were only conditional contraband and were not liable to seizure when found on board a neutral vessel, unless it was proved that they were intended for the enemy. The aeroplane which was found on board the Carthage was purely for ex- hibition flights in Tunis, Egypt and Greece, while the portions for an aero- plane also selzed were for purposes of repairs. The third point raised is that the Carthage was a mail steamer, the seizure of which was a violation of The Hague agreement of 1907. The French parliamentary group for the promotion of international arbitration at a meeting today presided over by Baron D'Estaurnelles de Constant vot- ed that incidents like the Carthage af- falr establish the necessity for bring- ing the Turco-Italian war to an end. The meeting passed a resolution to ask the French government to inter- e in order to put a stop to the con- ot tions than others, which, of oourse,‘A POLICE GUARD FOR causes much dissatisfaction.

Mr. Editor: I should like a conspicu- ous space in your columns on the sub- ject of our ponds for skating. I think the playground association ought to hire someone to plow the snow from the pond, immediately after the storms, for there is even now fine sport lying dormant there under the snow on Fanning’s, while we younger set have “time hanging on our hands.” Would it be any tremendous expense to the association to see that a man kept the pond in fit shape, scraping it atter the storms, etc.? If the members of the association will recall their skating days, when the snow put an end to their jolly sport, they perhaps will think a little on the subject. A lover of the “SILVER SKATES."

Surely Breaks the Most Severe Cold and Ends Grippe Misery in 3 Just a Few Hours. It is a positive fact that a dose of Pape's Cold Compound taken every two hours until three consecutive doses are teken will' cure Grippe or break up the most severe cold, either in ‘the head, chest, back, stomach or limbs. You distinctly feel the cold break- ing and all the disagreeable grippe symptoms leaving after the very dose. It prumguy ends the most mis- erable headache, dullness, head and nose stuffed up, feverigshness, sneez- ing, sore throat, running of the nose, mucous catarrh dis sore- ness, stiffness and rheumatic twinges. Pape's Cold Compound is the result of three years' research at a cost of more than fifty thousand dollars and contains no quinine, which we have emonstrated is not ef- 1] fective in the treatment of colds or grippe. Take this harmless Compound as directed, with the knowledge that there is no other medicine made any- where else in the world, which will cure your cold or end Grippe misery as promptly and without any other as- sistance or bad after-effects as a 25- cent package of Pape’s Cold Com- pound, which any druggist in the world can supply. e INSURED FOR $5,000,000 $ FOR ONLY THREE HOURS. Banking House Guards Against Theft During Transfer of Valuables. New York, Jan. 18.—A $3,000,000 in- surance policy, the life of which is three hours, was issued to guarantee & New York banking house against loss by highwaymen during the transfer from the burned Equitable building of a fortune in cash and securities which | must be carried for six blocks through | the streets. Although the surety com- pany which issued the policy takes the risk of loss during the three hours which it is estimated will be required for the transfer, the actual work of protection develops ufon the city, for a squad of police will be the only guards. The surety company called the policy a “holdup and robbery pol- icy,” and received ?600 for the risk. WOMAN HELD FOR MURDER OF PARENTS. Bodies of Aged Couple Found Badly Mutilated in Their Apartment.
