'-'if f'11'1la,1Q1gJ'l1: x The ahove Announcement is full ot meaning and interest to the lllllllillig' man. I-low it Came About. Seven years since we conceived the idea of manu- facturing a first-class shoe exclusively for men, and sell- ing it only to the wearer through Crawford Shoe stores of our own. A feeling at that time existed that a ready- made shoe was not suited to a gentleman's wear. We have succeeded in overcoming this prejudice, and to-day find ourselves the largest makers of fine shoes for gentle- men in the world. No one who has tried our Crawford Shoe hesitates buying it because it is ready-made, any more than he would a Dunlap hat, his collars, cuffs, gloves or under- wear. There are shoes and shoes, but only one Craw- ford Shoe. BOUVE, CRAWFORD 81 C0. Corporation, Alzikcr of' The Cl'JlXVf0l'll Shoe, :mul Proprietor ol' all thc Crawford Shoe Stores.

The purpose of the S1+11NGLE is to put together, in permanent form, a continuous history of the events, serious and amusing, of the two years which we have spent together, as well as a short biographical notice of each member of the class. I wish to express thanks to Prof. Baldwin and Mr. Buckland for their contributions, and to Messrs. Donovan, Wheeler, Redington, Reynolds, Bosley and Bowers for the articles under which their names appear. I am also indebted to Mr. John Tilson, the editor of the first SHINGLE, for many valuable hints and suggestions. PERCV FINLAY. April I, 1894. CQNTENTS. An11REss, Qby Mr. Bucklandj, APPEARANCE ,.....

I've appeared before large audiences In many a different partg I have met the ocean's tempests With a strong, unflinching heartg But the duty now 1've to perform, It phases me completely, And I feel myself forlorng Since I cannot do it neatly, When I think how much there's to it And the shortness of the time, Having promised to the Shingle, As the author of this rhyme, When these Words I did commingle I would do my very best, And though I cause some ears to tingle I hope favor from the rest. Barnum was a great man, ' Had strange freaks in his dayg He introduced the bearded lady,l But let our class go its way. Why he was not interested, I am sure I cannot tell, Though I think if he'd invested, 'Twould have paid him very well. For who composed this aggregation Thought themselves to be just pat,', Eyed the school with hesitation l And exclaimed, Where are we at? But they were a jolly crowd, Gay and happy to a man, Starting first with giant Dowd, To Larkin, dwarf of Birmingham. TI-IE YALE SHINGLE. There were men of many races, Coming from far distant places 5 Moore, the Indian from the West, The London Lord with noisy vest, Flag Pond sent Crain from Tennessee, Turkey, that Turk, Montgomery. The reason they assembled here, To study law and Percyvere, That they might soon possessors be Of the title LL. B. So in September, ninety-two, We met beneath the well-tried blue. All looking hearty, strong and hale, Worthy sons of dear old Yale. Thus met the class of '94, Which numbered just about fourscore. Though reckoned only fair in size, We did not know or realize, Chief justice Adams of our class Was noted for his lack of brass. But all possessed the same intent, To master Blackstone, Parsons, Kent, And where beneath the shining sun Except at Yale could this be done, . With her corps of professors, learned and wise, Teachers of franchise, commons and tithesP It was a little early then, To know which were the brightest men, For Couse and Reynolds were unknown, And Denniston was as dumb as stone, Though Tyner showed us by his face, That he would sure be in the race. After purchasing tons of books, We met the Dean who, by his looks, Proved we were welcome and should begin To learn the mysteries of seisin. THE VALE SlIINGl,l'1. I5 Then we started as juniors gay, To study the law's most intricate way Some of the fellows hustled for fare, Teller off-hustled the front of his hairg While Conlon showed by his head, when starting, To be like to Heaven, there being no parting. In the Kent Club 'twas that Levy shone, Where his points of order raised many a groan. Here Moore and Gouraud in eloquence grand, Tried whether the House of Lords should stand. In trying for the fournallr staff, Some vented sense the others chaff. Those that did get on the paper, Found it work to cut this caperg For it is a diliicult task to do, And fulsomc praise is the editor's due, The journal in all its publications Giving bright comments and citations. The thing that next caught our attention Was the famous athletic dissension, Which caused this school to form a nine To discount all in the base ball line. To all the players great praise is due, But Durant and Bowers are the two, Who by their management and play, Inspired the men to win the day, And at the end of every game To add more lustre to Yale's fair name. And when the base ball trophy cup Was at the World's Fair offered up To the College nine, best in the land, The Law School nine then led the band 5 And the boys returned with this famous prize, Which will the Law School immortalize. Football is a game that's rough, But those who play ne'er get enoughg Tlllfl YA l .li Sl-I INGLE. And Hamlin small and Haskell say, 'Twas not our Graves, Thanksgiving day, The Tigers left upon the field, When to their wedge fair Yale did yield. wk Pk bk a as 34 Pk ik ak There is a horse the poets ride, But in this scrawl there is beside A horse which all may get on me, If I thus floundcr, all at sea. So with a word of last advice. l'll cease to fill you with chopped ice. We've had professors, good and bright, Who taught the law, and taught it right. Now, after all this xvork and fun, For us our lives have just begun- Our active lives, where each his part Should seek and act with all his hearty And whether we succeed or fail, We'll keep our love for DEAR OLD YALE.

Dear ! c!!oaf.v :- I feel a peculiar right to address you as above. You are the first class I ever taught. You started in with me, and I started in with you. For I believe that immediately after our reverend President had told you what an important part of Yale University you were, and after our honored Dean had told you how glad he was to see you, Qineidentally mentioning that term bills were payable at his ofhcc in advancej, you and I were introduced to each other for the first time. I shall never forget the feeling I had at that introduc- tion. As a student in '89 I had but live years before wondered how that little man, sitting behind the desk, could know so much more than I did. But when I came to sit behind that selfsame desk, I questioned whether any of you could know less than I did. In the fall of 1887, it seemed more than easy to look on the book and see if the fellows gave the right answer. In the fall of 1892, it seemed even easier for any one of you to put poscrs which Ieould neither answer out of that book or any other way. Anyhow, you will remember we started in with Infants and got through Riley vs. Mallory, Todd vs. Clapp, and Henry vs. Root very successfully. Infants created a bond of sympathy at once. A fellow feeling makes us wondrous kind. But we stuck at Married Women. IS Tllli YALIC SIIINGLE. Naturally none of us knew much about married women except Foster, who alone had reduced one to pos- session. Yet you mastered that subject much better in law than most men do in life, and if you don't know all about married women now, console your- sclvcs, nobody ever does. Once fairly under way, you immediately asserted your right to the proud position as the only class that ever ran a champion base ball team. I fear there may have been some hard feeling before we parted company in Junior year. I trust, however, that you have forgotten the seamy side of last .Iune's examinations. I cannot hope to follow Judge Townsend in writ- ing an article full of advice, nor do I think it neces- sary to do so. You probably wouldn't follow his advice, I'm sure you wouldn't follow mine. For advice from a live year old smacks too much of the grape. Let me stay bottled and work awhile longer before being uncorked and served to such eonnoisseurs. Only the other day a kind-hearted old farmer passed me on the street after a trial in which I took part. He had listened patiently in the jury-box while I talked earnestly to him and eleven other equally bored jurymen for an hour. As he passed, he stopped, and shaking hands, said: Young man, you did blamed well for a beginner. I s'pose you never was in court before. If I can not advise you as a lawyer, yet I may give you a few points as a clerk. Many of you will begin your practice as clerks in large offices. See to it that you make the most of your opportunities. If your employers want you enough to take you as a green 'l'lIIi YAl.l'l SI-IIXULIC. I9 hand, be sure it is your own fault if they do not keep you as an experienced one. When you go into an office, determine to make yourself so indispensable to the firm that they cannot get along without you. XVhen you have done that, you can dictate your own terms. To be able to do a little better than the average means success, to do a little worse,-fail- ure. The coefficient of success is very small, but very powerful. It is said that the profession is over- crowded. Perhaps it is, with attcmrneys-at-law-it isn't with lawyers. And there never was such a demand as there is now for men to start in ofhces as clerks on a living salary. But the men wanted for these positions are men of active minds and original ideas, men of common sense as well as of sound legal theories. In short, men just a little superior in ability to the average. If you get in an office and are told to do a thing, do not be content when like a mere machine you have done that particular thing. Keep your mind alert while doing it, and something may occur to you that hasn't occurred to your employer. VVork it out on your own hook, and show him you can use your trained mind as it was intended it should be used. You will probably be asked to look up evi- dence on particular points in a ease. Nine times out of ten, you will, if you are of the right stuff, develop some other point which may win your ernployer's case. Then your prospects will be greatly improved. Let me repeat myself. When you go into an ofhce make yourself so indispensable to the firm that they can not get along without you. I must say one thing more to all of you which I 29 Tllli YALE SlllNGl.li. wish you could feel as deeply as I feel it. In your practice you can never qfora' to be less than gentle- men. ' You will soon be members of an honored pro- fession--of a manly profession. See that you quit yourselves like men in your conduct of it. You will need to be strong to do this. In your early practice, the temptation will be great to descend to the level of your probable opponents and be a blackguard against a blackguard. Stop at 'l'ouehstone's first degree of good manners, give the Retort Courteous, avoid the Reply Churlish. I never felt more highly compli- mented in my life than when, in a trial where I was counsel, a juryman told me he had never seen a trial conducted in a more gentlemanly manner. I do not mean that you should remain quiet and submissive under your opponent's attacks. By no means. Kill him if nec-essary, but do it with a rapier, not a hatchet. Cultivate a high tone in your profession. You have chosen a life where you must iight your best friends every day. Fight fair, don't hit below the belt, or when your antagonist is on the ropes or down. Then when you whip him, he will think well of you: if he whips you, he will still respect you. As long as I live I shall remember a kind act which a great and gentlemanly lawyer did to me. It was in the heat of a trial, an important witness was testifying. My opponent asked a question which seemed to me clearly inadmissible under the common law of evidence. 1 was just about to jump up and object in no uncertain tones when he leaned over and whispered, Wz1it a minute. Ipaused. He opened the statutes and 'l'lll'I YAI.l'l SlllNKll.l'1. 21 pushed the book over to me, whispering, Don't object to that question, there is the statute which covers it and makes it admissible. A less noble soul would have waited till I had stated my objection and then annihilated My young friend, whose ignor- ance of the statutes is only equalled by his ignorance of the law in general. So I say, keep your practice up to a high stone, it is the noblest in the world. Let me tell you what Chief Justice Andrews says of it: It is not enough for an attorney that he be hon- est. He must be that and more. He must be believed to be honest. It is absolutely essential to the usefulness of an attorney that he be entitled to the confidence of the community wherein he practices. If he so conducts in his profession that he does not deserve that confidence, he is no longer an aid to the court nor a safe guide to his clients. A lawyer needs, indeed, to be learned. It would be well if he could be learned in all the learning of the schools. There is nothing to which the wit of man has been turned that may not become the subject of his inqui- ries. Then, of course, he must be specially skilled in the books and the rules of his own profession and he must have prudence and tact to use his learning, and foresight, and industry. and courage. But all these may exist in a moderate degree and yet he may be a creditable and useful member of the profession, so long as the practice is to him a clean and honest func- tion. But possessing all these great faculties, if once the practice becomes to him a mere 'brawl for hire, or a system of legalized plunder where craft and not 22 'l'lIl'I YAIJC SIIINGLE. conscience is the rule, und where falsehood and not truth is the means by which to gain his ends, then he has forfeited ull right to be an officer in any court of justice or to be numbered among the members of an honorable profession. May you all be a credit to that profession, an honor to the class of '94 and to the Yule Law School. IQIJWARIP G. l5UeK1.ANn. X liii W4 Jr, ,. li1viZ ' w 'iri R .-:Q if THE CLASS OF 1394. W11.1.1AM ROIJERICIQ AD1xMs came into this world at Bloomfield, Conn., December 24, 1873. His father, William R. Adams, a scientific tobacco raiser, has held all the important town offices in the place of our subject's nativity. On both sides he traces English blood for ten generations. In a catalogue which he has made from the genealogical tree of his family are the two Presidents of the name of Adams, a bank president, and a jailer of Hartford, on his fath- er's side, Chief Justice Waite and the Mayor of South Norwalk, on his mother's side. He attended the Hartford High School before coming to the Law School. FREDERICK L,xw1'oN AvER11,1, was born at Branford, Conn., July 15, 1865, since residing there and in New Haven. His father, George W. Averill, formerly captain of a coasting vessel, was afterwards an oyster- grower and dealer.

Wood, is a lawyer, and has been United States Com- 'mic v.x1.14: SI-I lNo1,ic. 43 missioner. His blood is English, and his descent from the Massachusetts Bay Colony can be traced. He attended Rockland College. Ro1s1':R'1' VVRIUIIT was born at Oldham, England. August 19, 1867, living since in Hartford, Conn. His father was Robert Wright, now deceased. His blood is pure English and can be traced for four or live generations. He received a common school education. An examination of the names of our class will show that those of George Preston Breckenridge and George Redington Montgomery are the longest, each requiring twenty-live letters for a full signature. Loren Pinckney Wzildo Marvin, who rejoices in a greater number of names than any of the rest of us, is second, with twenty-four. Morgan and Finlay have the shortest names, eleven letters sullicing lor them, while, Conlon and VVright come next with a dozen each. 'l'he venerable Callahan, of martial fame, is the patriarch of the class, with Foster second. The close of the Civil War witnessed the birth of several of us, while many more were born before the encl of the seventh decade of this century. Sher- wood is the youngest man in the 'classy he will be just old enough for admission to the bar exactly one year from commencement. Adams is but a month and two days older than the infant, with Merritt following him in the race of the juveniles. Those under legal disability owing to age are quite numerous. 44 THE YALE SI'IINGl.1'2. Our homes are scattered over sixteen states and two foreign countries.

NI1X1iVlN Duomo BU'1 rI.19s, New York City, appeared at recitations a few times during Junior year-enough to enable us to coniidently distinguish him from the flaxen-haired Buttle-but has not since renewed his connection with the class. PIOWICLI, ClIl'INPlX', Manchester, Conn., left in Junior year on account of his eyes, and travelled in South America until the complications in Brazil ren- dered further sojourn undesirable, when he returned to his home. wVAl.'l'l'IR Fonwmui Cmiaii, died on the day the Law School opened last September.

SICIIJLI-Z, Leighton, Pa., completed Junior year very creditably to himself, but never returned last fall. Gisonom PIOWARIJ S'rR1s1s'1', Exeter, N.

Roums BLACKBURNE Woomvamm, after one year's connection with thc class, gave up the study of law, and is now living at home in Brooklyn, N. Y. school. How proud he seemed as he pointed out the JUNIOR YEAR. Well do we remember the day when we first made our appearance at the Yale Law School, after having climbed the beautiful stairway to the palatial quarters, where we were for two years to grind out enough law to enable us to finally try dog cases before Jus- tices of the Peace, in our native towns. The hrst impression of our new home was indeed one never to bc forgotten. If by chance, we hap- pened to have any cspccial friend in the Senior class, he was sure to wish to show us thc sights of the library, with its rows of pondcrous legal tomcs, in a subdued whisper, designated the presiding t of thc spot, Dr. Robinson: then escorted us on toe to thc door of the sanclmzz szrfzffoffzzm, where Dean sat on his throne of state presiding over destinics of thc school. Finally he explained beauties of the Yale system, and commenced and lcity tip- the the the the often repeated discussion as to the respective merits of the text book and the case methods. We were shown also the room where we were to receive instruction in the intricacies of the law, and noticed with pride the magnificent busts upon the walls, and decided that when we were graduated we would present the school with a composite bust of our class, thus typifymg the young idea and perpetuating the glory of ,Q4 to future generations of law students. 'I'lIl'I VALIC SlIlNlll,I'1. 49 Shortly after our arrival, we received an address of welcome from President Dwight, who informed us of the honor of being a Yale graduate of any depart- ment of the University, and made us feel as though we were already practicing attorneys in fact. Soon after this notable occasion, we were informed that the Dean would be very glad to see us individu- ally in his ofhce. where We we1'e kindly requested to pay our tuition in advance. Well do we remember our consternation, as we stood in this position, won- dering where we were to get enough money together to keep on with our studies, and not be obliged to borrow from our fond parents, or the Hon. Solomon Fry. Not many days after our introduction to the school, we noticed that several of our members had adorned themselves with various insignia, in order to show their pride in becoming members of our great Uni- versity. One man was decked out with Yale buttons, Yale pins, and wore a Yale flag for a ncckerchiefg another man approached as near as possible to the true blue in the shade of the clothing which covered his lower limbsg still another was the proud possessor of a cravat which made one feel blue enough to take to strong drink. One after another, we met our different Professors, and commenced the serious business of our law studies. This being our first year in the profession, we studied Elementary Law, that most estimable book of Prof Robinson's, under the instruction of the author, and pursued the same for many months. We now feel the great benefit of this elementary 50 THE VALIC SIIINGLE. course, in that it has formed the ground work upon which we are building our legal education. Professor Watrous commenced his course on Torts, illustrating it with many valuable cases, and instruct- ing us in the practical working of Courts of Justice. We XVCYC warned of the extreme danger of jostling any passer-by on the street and also shown the great benefit to be derived to our pocketbooks by keeping our mouths discreetly closed when we feel inclined to call our friends hard names. Our class was fortunate enough to be the first to recite to the new instructor, Mr. Buckland, and we all feel that we owe very much to him, for his kind interest in our work, and the clear and concise man- ner in which he stated the various points of law to us. We are especially grateful for the excellent review which he gave us before our Hnal examina- tions, sacrihcing much of his valuable time for our good, ingratiating himself thereby in our esteem and respect. Those of our number who were still infants immediately rushed off to their tailors to order new suits of clothes under the fond hope that they might plead infancy as a defense in any action brought by the hard-hearted merchant. Many were the schemes plotted in greatest secrecy whereby the most pressing creditors might be put off or outwitted and loud were the praises of Mr. Buckland for helping the poor hard-working students to thwart the bloated bond holders who were so eagerly striving to pounce upon them. We were told by Professor Robinson that in all probability we would not make enough money out of our profession to provide a bone for our THE YALE Sl'IlNUl.1'l. SI dog, to say nothing of the necessaries for ourselves, consequently we often pictured ourselves clad in ebb- tidc trousers, a green frock coat cut high in the waist, a battered high hat and, covering all, a perennial Hood's Sarsaparilla expression. Nevertheless we still plodded on, bound to win if we could. Professor Baldwin instructed us in Contracts, and introduced us to the elementaryprinciples of Agency and Partnership, using as a text book Mr. Theophilus Parson's great work, where the author so adroitly tal-:es back what he has just laid down as law. Pro- fessor Baldwin cleared away the mists and steered us forth into clear waters. We also studied Contracts under Professor Beers, and learned the great danger which any young man incurs in calling too often upon any young lady of his acquaintance, and mentally resolved that in the future, we would carefully write out our conversations in advance, commit them to memory, and thereby avoid the possibility of a suit for breach of promise Our class also was the first to receive instruction from Judge Perry, in the elements of Evidence, which course, although it seemed very difhcult to us at the time, was of great value to us. We were also distinguished in being the last class which Judge Loomis taught in the school. We desire to express our deep appreciation of the interest which he showed in us, and will ever remember with pride our course under a man who so distinguished himself on the bench and in public life, by his high qualities of mind and character. We all have the highest respect for Mr. Pepper as a gentleman and a lawyer, but we decided that his 52 Tllli YALE SIIINGIJC. book on Pleading was a bit too deep for us at that stage of our studies. We wrestled with those miser- able Hilary Rules until we were black in the face, and twisted our tongues out of shape in trying to pronounce the Norman French names for the intri- cate processes. We were strongly advised to read Blackstone in connection with our Elementary Law, as this worthy gentleman was responsible for much of our trou- ble in wrestling with the intricacies of seizin. We learned also that the jaw bone of every whale and the left hind foot of every pig were perquisites of the Queen, while the King had to satisfy himself with a measure of every gallon of beer brewed in the kingdom to quench his thirst and a certain proportion of all the ham sandwiches to satisfy his hunger. On account .of the illness of Professor Townsend, we were unfortunate in having only a few recitations under that well known Judge, but the little we saw of him in our Junior year, made us look forward to the chance of meeting him again later on in our course. As in previous years, the genial Mr. Mallory, who foolishly furnished a gun to Johnny Riley, impressed us with the responsibility which we would later incur, as fathers of families, in restraining our infant sons from squandering our patrimony on things not neces- saries. Mr. Buckland referred frequently to Mr. Iladley, who made the mistake of furnishing machinery to the unreliable Baxendale, thus bringing on a law suit, which caused us much trouble, in mas- tering the principles of stipulated damages. We THE YALE SHINGLE. 53 well remember our genial friend Messmore, beside a host of other worthies whose names we have now forgotten, but whose law suits we trust will remain in our memories, at least until after the bar examinations are over. The review which Professor Watrous gave us in Benjamin on Contracts helped to fix the elementary principles of the subject in our minds so that we were able to reconcile the startling discrepancies of Parsons in an intelligent manner. We had a little dash of Criminal Law with Pro- fessor Beers which proved especially valuable to those who frequented the Police Court. When the Supreme Court was in the Superior Court Room, many of our classmates walked in at the Bar Entrance and took the arm chairs as if they had been practicing for years. We had a few additional courses which were not in the curriculum, to wit: a special course in Potosoph- ical Research, under Professor Albert A. Moore and Assistant Professor Buttle, given whenever the spirits moved them to do so. Some few of us were for- tunate enough to be assisted in our attempts to appear like gentlemen, by a series of lectures on the I-Iabiliment of the Person, by the Honorable Pro- fessor Gouraud of London and New York. Most of us attended the wildly exciting political discussions of the Yale Kent Club, and never will we forget the stirring argument of Chief Justice Adams on the Tariff Question, emphasized as it was by the fact that he wore upon his breast a miniature box of the Sherman brand of American Tin Plates, thus S4 'I'lll'I Y.-x1.i-1 SlllNl1l,l'Z. illustrating by his deeds the noble sentiments which he so glowingly expressed. We listened with admiration to the speeches of some of the seniors and felt greatly honored when wc were asked to act as ushers at the Prize Debate, although there were nearly as many ushers as there were spectators. Kent Club politics also gave us many chances to try our hands at pulling wires and rolling logs and afforded us a valuable introduction to future careers as Congressmen, Senators and Presi- dents. We were buttoned-holed and caressed by lobbyists who desired us to vote for this or that man, told of his estimable fitness for the office and favored us with glowing enconiums on his high qualities as a gentleman and a scholar. During the agitation over the adoption of the undergraduate rule in athletics we were held entranced by the earnest orations of Denny O'Neil on the iniquity of such a measure, made more effective by the wonderful facial gymnastics of the silver tongucd speaker. Denny's smile as he calmly answered not prepared in recitations was bland enough to make one wish that we might have it perpetuated in a plas- ter cast which would ornament the library and be a fitting companion piece to the cup so nobly won by the Law School team at Chicago. We were also favored by being able to listen to Professor Mark Bailey, of the Divinity School, in his admirable lectures on Elocution, a noble preliminary to our future course in Forensic Wind. Many times as we passed by the door of the reci- tation room, we heard the Seniors discussing 'l'lll'1 YAl.l'l SIIINHLIC. S5 weighty questions of law before Chief Justice Beers, and wondered if we too, might sometime be able to appear in the Yale Moot Court, and present our knotty questions of law to that well known jurist. We were told by one of the Professors that we would gain much by occasionally dropping in at the Police Court, which suggestion was followed by some of our class. In fact, we almost wondered at times how these students of human nature and judicial proce- dure managed to find time to eat luncheon, so constant were they in their attendance at Judge Pickett's Court. The regular question in the morn- ing used to be, VVell, what's up in the City Court to-day? and whenever any well known Dago stabbed another Dago ora gentlemanly tramp hit a brother wanderer with a club, there were always several ,94 men on hand to sympathize with him and profit by his experience. Our hrst year in the Law School was indeed one of great beneht to us, laying the foundation for our future studies and convincing us that our system is vastly superior to any other method of studying our profession. We have made many strong friends among the members of our class, and gained much experience which will be of inestimable value to us in future work. ' jmviss E. Wirral-:1.14:1a. SENIOR YEAR. We are Seniors. But a few months more and we will bid farewell to our learned inst1'uctors and to those old familiar recitation rooms perched upon the third floor of the New Haven County Court House. Many and varied have been our experiences as Juniors in the Yale Law School, and now we are setting out on the second and final year of our legal course. We have had three long months of restful base ball, rowing, and inspiring, or rather perspiring, dancing, and return, greatly refreshed, all eager to assume the role of dignihed Seniors. With appropriate reserve we move about the halls and recitation rooms, gazing in quiet contempt at those unfortunate new arrivals-commonly termed Juniors-who know not as yet that a four year old child cannot enter into a contract to build a railroad, or that, in the eyes of the law, an insane person is mm mmjrox 7lZL'7ZfZ'S. We for- get, as all Senior classes before us have forgotten, that but one brief year has elapsed since we ourselves were untutored Juniors. As we finally get settled down to work we notice that several former members of the class are no longer with us, and in their places appear new faces and forms. We miss the stalwart figure of Big Denny especially. Rumor has it that he has gone to Georgetown, and too, it is said you can get bigger schooners for a nickel down there than at any place around these parts. But becoming accustomed to 'l'II1'I YALIQ' SIIINGLIC. 57 the absence of the missing ones, we form the acquaint- ance of the new members of this class, and find them all agreeable fellows. During the vacation the Faculty has made one or two important changes. Now the desk is at the exit end of the big recitation room, and the benches are reversed. Not only does this arrangement save the Professors many steps, but it also seems to materially lessen the number of pressing engagements outside immediately after roll-call. Our class being an especially capable one, the Fac- ulty decide to favor us with additional work. Hence the honor system. We appreciate this compliment to our ability--following classes, look upon us, your benefactors-and thank our worthy Dean and Pro- fessors for it. Our studies this year are exceedingly interesting. Under the able direction of Professor Baldwin we are becoming familiar with the intricacies of Corporations and Trusts, and also the workings of the Constitu- tion of the United States. Professor Robinson guides us with steady hand through Real Property, Forensic Oratory, and Medi- cal Jurisprudenee. Later with him we become very much interested in Conveyancing, and, what is thor- oughly enjoyed by all, a practical Moot Court. For a brief time we enjoy the presence of Professor Townsend in recitations on 'l'rademarks, Copyrights. and Patents. We regret not being able to have this popular instructor in more of our work. Meanwhile Pepper has given way to Maxwell and Professor Beers in the realm of Pleading. Notes 58 'l'lIl'l YAl.liI SlIlNGl,li. and Bills go smoothly with Professor Perry, and Evi- dence is profitably reviewed through the lectures of Judge Fenn. We Hnish Professor Woolscy's inter- esting work in International Law, and then begin a fine series of lectures on Equity under Professor Phelps. This gentleman is endearing himself to all, and his clear, practical talks make the subject easily and thoroughly understood by every one. We now reach the middle of the winter term, when this goes to print. What studies are yet to come we cannot foretell. Suffice it to say that what- ever the subject assigned, its principles are sure to be eagerly absorbed and stowed away in our capacious legal brains. Next to studies, as a class, we shine most brilliantly in athletics. As Juniors we had six men on the great Yale Law School Base Ball Nine QLimitedj, as Seniors we must need have a football team. So we selected a manager-he was the best shot with a gun in the two classes-collected subscriptions, and organ- ized for the onslaught. Well, we played three games, and only lost two of them. It was not quite as fine a record as that of the ball team, but then we might have lost all three-the other game resulted 6 to 6. Under the head of athletics we ought to mention the fact that we have in our class the captain of the fencing-squad, a long distance runner, two sprinters fboth from New Londonj, a chess player, the editors of the Law Journal, aud a stenographer-the rest of the class obtain physical exercise either by playing poker or carrying their notes on evidence to and from the lectures. 'l'lllC VALIC SIIINGLIC. S9 But advancement has been made in other lines besides those of studies and athletics. One of our most esteemed classmates, from a city heard of every June on account of the boat race, has gained twenty- four pounds in weight by taking Dr. Saunder's famous forensic medicine, another has become a veritable wizard at billiards through daily games with one of our Faculty, still another, with photo- graphic and on the make tendencies, has learned to abstain from making useless points of order at the Kent Club meetings. Numerous have been the amusing little incidents throughout the year, which even brought a smile to the faces of our learned Judges. It was while on Copyrights that one of our class, from the land of big trees and Chinamen, asked the Professor if he had ever played the donkey game, it was in Saturday morning Moot Court that one man said he was not quite sure whether he was for the plaintiff or the defendant, but 'he would demur just the same, and it was in Professor Robinson's Moot Court that after His Honor had overruled a motion for non suit, that the moving counsel said, Well, I'll accept the ruling, but I would like to see you outside after- wards. But now the time to graduation is fast shortening from months to weeks and from weeks to days. Momcntous day, thou Twenty-Sixth of June! what fates lie beyond thee for the members of this hopeful band? Does the outside world await our coming, fondly thinking we may settle their strifes and con- troversies? Does the sufferer of injustice hope for 60 THE VALE sH1NoLu. our coming that we may apply the balm of profound legal learning to his wounds? Or does the cold, out- side world, in its hurrying and scurrying, fail to realize that soon seventy young men, with hopeful hearts and empty pockets, will sally forth to begin the battle of life as youthful members of a great profession? When the day does come when we must separate and depart for unknown fields and diverse trials, let us go forth determined to bring honor to this institution and to those who have guided us through the two years of legal studyg let us ever strive to become good lawers and staunch men, and in so 25 doing let us continually remember that Each duty patiently, faithfully done Bringeth reward in excellence won.

The opinions of an outspoken and independent class must naturally be varied, and, when favorable, very flattering to the subject of criticism. The Fac- ulty, whom we regard as the best exponents of the best system of legal instruction, have appealed to us in many different ways, and while our votes give some one of the professors a decided plurality, in each case except one, they are divided among so many that no one can claim a majority. In our selection of favorite professor, we have fol- lowed the judgment of the last Senior Class--Prof. Robinson receives nearly half the votes cast. Prof. Townsend, whom we regret not to have seen more often in the recitation room, stands second. Prof. Bald- win comes third, while each of the other members of the Faculty receives votes. The long-desired arrival of Prof. Phelps had not occurred when the voting took place, and it is impossible to tell how he would have affected the order given above, if we had known him earlier. One considerate youth refrains from voting for fear of creating jealousy among the Faculty. We also regard Prof. Robinson as the best teacher, with Prof. Baldwin and Prof. Townsend following in close order. Judge Perry and Mr. Buckland also receive a number of votes. The selection of the easiest to recite to is very close. Prof. Robinson again wins Hrst place, with Prof. 62 'l'lIl'2 YALE SIIINGLIS. Loomis second. Profs. Beers, Townsend and Perry follow in that order. Some of the wags voted for Judge Fenn and Prof. Woolsey, While one fond youth, who had not evidently tried to evade paying the library fee, or been obliged to account for his conduct, voted for Dean Wayland. The instructor most difhcult to recite to was chosen with ease. The vote is too large to permit any doubt of the sincerity manifested. P1'of. Baldwin towers above all competitors. We have not forgotten the knotty problems concerning indorscment, partner- ship, legacies, powers in gross, etc., which appeared to us hopeless of solution and sent us in humiliation to our benches. When we were obliged to face the difhculties arising in connection with the powers of directors and constructive trusts, we envied those mild sensations which Prometheus, chained to the rock of Caucasus, felt in the region of his liver. Following the traditions of the law, we consider Blackstone to be the greatest jurist of the world. Our familiarity with his great Work has been chieliy derived from hearsay and the directions beneath the paragraphs of the Elementary Law to read 2 Bl. Comm. pp. 163-168, etc., and when we have exam- ined more closely his claims to greatness, perhaps our present opinion will be more strongly confirmed. Only one ballot less was east for Lord Coke. Prob- ably the first words of his that the most of us ever read were the eovin doth suffoeate the right, but we liked the appearanceiof his quaint, pithy state- ments and hence our admiration. Our patriotism showed itself in the vote for Chief Justice Marshall, THE YALE SIIINGLE. 6g who holds third place, and might have been higher, had his opinions been reduced about fifteen pages per mp. Kent, Story, Bentham, John Adams and Taney are voted for. Shining with undiminished brilliancy among these luminaries, the names of Hayden and Levy appear. ln the contest for place of greatest American jurist, Chief Justice Marshall recovers himself, and receives nearly three times as many votes as Kent, who is second by a margin of one vote over Cooley. Story and David Dudley Field come next, with seat- tering votes for Robt. AG. Ingersoll, Judge Callahan, WVilliam M. Evarts, Recorder Smyth and our own Adams. Justice Harlan is voted the greatest jurist now liv- ing, with Judge Cooley next. Our own class has the honor of containing the holder of third place in the contest, to wit, Adams, whose illustrious ancestor is mentioned above as receiving a vote fby an apprecia- tive descendantj, for the greatest jurist of all time. Those who wish to win Moot Court cases vote for Chief Justice Beers. Story, Marshall, Joseph Choate, Justices Gray and Field, as well as Hayden, have constituents in our class. As a result of our interest in certain recent criminal cases, in which Mr. Wm. C. Case so ably conducted the defense, we have voted him the ablest local law- yer. Prof. Baldwin comes second, and Judge Stod- dard and Mr. J. W. Alling tied for third. Messrs. Doolittle, Ingersoll, Buckland, VVatrous, Harrison and Hamilton are also in the race. Those of us who have made a specialty of Police Court cases, and have 64 'l'lII:I VALE SHINGLIS. seen Jakey defend with so much spirit hundreds of hopeless peace-breakers cf als., vote for him. Tyner and Hawkes receive votes. Being possessed of cheerful dispositions and good digestions, Qwith the exception of the melancholy Buckham and the hypochondriacal Hawkesj, we enjoyed immensely the jokes with which some mem- bers of the Faculty relieved the tedium of recitations and lectures. Of all the instructors, Judge Loomis, who will always be of tender memory with us, used this mode of arousing interest most frequently, and when Judge Story had found it impossible on account of the brevity of his treatment of the subject of Bail- ments to give us Pothier's opinions on some particular topic, fmanaging generally to quote Sir William Jones at length, and perhaps a half score or so lines of Roman lawj, the genial Judge supplied the deficiency by relating some anecdote from the large stock which he had gathered during the four or five decades of of his connection with law. All these jokes were thoroughly appreciated, and to read the answers to this question is to review the most pleasant part of the study of Bailments. ' Prof. 'I'ownsend's joke in connection with the fourth section of the Statute of Frauds is the favorite of the largest number, while Judge Loomis' remarks concerning the perplexity of a certain Judge. who was called on to decide who was the common carrier of a person of very immature age, elicited the loudest laugh from some. The unfortunate precaution of Judge Cooley in making so accessible to careful read- ers the story of the wrongful act of one in using a Tllli YALE SI-IINGLIC. 65 dead cat, whose remains had not been embalmed, asa political argument, and thereby committing a tort against Lord Macauley, occasioned its relation by no less than three of the Faculty, as to two of whom it should have been partnership property, not to be dis- posed of by one without the consent of the other. Judge Fenn's jokes, of which space forbids a detailed account, especially the one concerning judicial notice of secular music, are voted for singly and in a body. The Jew and the two per cent. on a cash transac- tion, and the setter dog stories of Judge Loomis, and Prof. Baldwin's story of the Quaker and the insurance are also mentioned. Prof. Robinson's salt has appeared chieiiy in the form of questions, e. Q.: Mi: Adams, what are the three kinds of liars? Mr.' Moore, what is common sense? and a ques- tion eoncerning wisdom teeth in a recitation in For- ensic Medicine. The drops of cynicism as to our future careers and success as lawyers which he has let fall upon us appeared ludicrous to the hopeful. The Dean, too, has not omitted to jolly us up a little on occasions. His reference to our base-ball trophy as one emblem at least of last year's work, and his remarks that we would not be deprived of the anticipated pleasure of an examination in Moot Court work are worthy of incorporation in the list of jokes. EDUCATIONAL. The obvious purpose of attending any law School is to study law, and many have given this as their reason for coming to the Yale Law School, although this does not explain the selection. Perhaps those who say they came to Zazwz law are more explicit. Convenience of situation, and consequent familiarity of with the advantages offered influenced several, among whom is numbered Averill, for Whom the study of law has been almost an avocation while he engaged in several other enterprises. Freeman, H. B., wished to return to the scenes of a happy aca- demic life, and live again amid the environments of the University. No sentimental or educational motive inlluenced Lord George, who says, I was too lazy to move my duds to another clime. The fact that the course is of only two years' duration was the attraction for those who are in a hurry to plunge into the sea of litigation-the darling dream of aspiring young lawyers. The opinion of some that the Yale Law School is the best in the coun- try, is more Hattering, while less absolute is the praise of those who consider it as good as any. Major Callahan had been so long under the shadows of the Law School, and was so fully alive to its merits, that he could not but choose it. Goodman says he is trying to Iind a reason for his choice and we fear 'l'lIl'l YALE SIIINGLE. 67 we cannot give him much encouragement to prose- cute such a futile search. Bonsall, suspecting no prospective undergraduate rule, came in the hope of winning the chess tournament. Our dear little Willie thought that a degree tif it fell his lotj from Yale University would prove useful to him in after years. An eminent attorney exerted his influence with O,C0l1l101', and turned the scale in favor of Yale. llawkes came to Yale to study theology-every man for what he needs most. Other reasons given are: Because I graduated from Yale, Because it was named after Yale College, Department of Yale University, Hlncidentally to see the football games and other athletic sports, Favorably impressed with the course, considering it practical therein differing from Cromer, q. v.j and the Professors excellent, The simultaneous existence of us both in the same State, Intend to practice in Connecticut, Econ- omy, Appearance and tone of the catalogue, For reasons best known to myself, 'fliecause it is considered the best of mllqgzfs by western people, 'i'l'he Dean invited me, VVanted to Colne East, None other, I was sent, Department of one of the greatest universities in the world, etc. The final answer takes our breath away, full as we are of the dignity of the law: I thought a legal education would be benehcial to me if I should adopt the pro- fession of court stenographyf' 1z'z'.r1'Z Z.7l.S'If?.C7ZS.! Little or no positive dissatisfaction with the Law School has been expressed, some have criticised rather strongly single features which do not corre- spond exactly with their ideas of perfection, but no 68 'l'lllC YAl.l'I SlllNGl.l'I. one has had occasion to regret his choice. Many are very warm in their laudation of the system and instructors of the school. The strongest points of the Yale Law School, in the opinion of the serious, are the method of instruc- tion cmployed and the able corps of instructors to carry it out. While its name is considered by some to be of the greatest importance, the practice of inter- spersing recitations with lectures and other features of the course are deemed worthy ofthe greatest commendation. The Faculty are praised individually and collectively with strong emphasis and,sincerity. Professors Baldwin, Townsend and Robinson in dif- ferent combinations are given as the strongest point. In lighter vein, The SIJITHQS on the entrance doors, Exclusion of its members from Commons, Adams, Professor Robinson's contempt for ease law, and Our class, are voted for. Levy's ada- mantine point of order is not forgotten. One enthusiast cxclaims that our base ball team was our strongest point, and our greatest need is another one! The Law Journal is mentioned by one fond editor, while the adjacency of a neighboring earavansary is no objection in the opinion of another. The Law School's greatest need in the opinion of a majority is another home. We have looked long- ingly at the property on Elm street, and wondered when the projected building would replace the colonial skeleton which now occupies the site. More commodious quarters in a building of its own will certainly be a great advance, and we trust that a not distant future will fulfill our hopes of a change and Tllli Y.-Xl,l'1 Sl'llNGl.l'1. 69 improvement of situation. Increase in numbers is fervently prayed for by several, though it would seem that the number of the present Junior class sufheiently guarantees that. One man combines in his idea of our greatest want larger recitation rooms, and more Professor Robinsons. Those with a tendency to l'lll60llf70l.7lf express great regret at the absence of an elevator, while one indolent man would be satished with a drop of two stories. We can console these gentlemen with the statement that one feature of the proposed building is that the lirst story will be near the ground. Loud cries for more money and endowments are heard, while one man, who has evidently been looking in vain for 29 Texas Court of Appeals, or a certain volume of Georgia Reports votes for a replacement of coniiscated books in the library. One thinks another Lord George would lend dignity and tone to future classes. Turning to a less material view of our needs, several men think that a higher standard of admis- sion would be very benelicial to the Law School. The Faculty are evidently becoming converted to this doctrine, as the new catalogue shows. One cynical gentleman declares that a 'flew Hrst-class funerals would prove advantageousg while another uses the following vigorous language: The greatest need of the Law School is an entrance examination so severe that it would cease to be an asylum of brainless ignoramusesf' The election of Adams and Levy to thc Faculty is the dcs2'1z'c1'zn'm7z of another. That unfortunate mistake in the degree of compar- ison in the question as to which year was more 7O Tllli YALE SIIINGLIC. diflicult occasioned so many side remarks and sneers that it is very difficult to ascertain what is the opinion of the class on the subject. The introduction of honor courses has made Senior year so much harder than it has ever been previously, that most of those who answered the question instead of criticising the grammar used, vote it the more difficult. Nei- ther and Both are replies of the indifferent and non-committal. Corporations, Real Property, Pleading, Evidence and Contracts in the order named receive the greater part of the votes for the most difficult subject, while nearly every subject we had studied had proved difh- cult for one or another. By far the easiest subject to the largest number of the class was Bailments, Forensic Oratory coming second and Torts third. Mr. Bailey's course in Forensic Elocution receives a respectable vote, while other subjects, from International Law to Corpora- tions.are voted for with great freedom of opinion. The subject of Contracts is selected as the most valuable, receiving twenty more votes than Elemen- tary Law and Evidence. which are tied for second place. Real Property and Corporations follow next with half a dozen other subjects receiving one or two votes. Our class is guilty no apostasy from '93's belief that Robinson's Elementary Law is the best written text book we have used. The vote is large enough to be used in an advertising circular. Parsons on Contracts. with all its faults is secondg Cooley on Torts comes third, with the remaining votes scattered. Tllli YALE Sl'llNGI.l'1. 71 Our opinion of Moot Courts was given before they had been reduced to their present effective form, and has consequently undergone considerable modification. Although a few have given this means of preparing law students for the application of the principles learned in the text books a moderate amount of praise, the view generally taken has been decidedly unfavorable, and many have used very emphatic words of disapproval. Of the minority who think them valuable, one says that theyv are of decided advantage, enabling a lawyer to wear off the rough edges before he commences actual warfare. fLieber's Code forbids the use of rough edges in warfare.j Several others think that the practice and confidence derived from participation in mock trials will prove very useful, others think that the advantages accrue only to those taking part, and consequently, on account of the size of the class, are small. As exam- ples of the opinion of that more numerous body whose opinionsof Moot Court are unfriendly, we give the following: Very good as far as they go, and plenty of them such as they are. Good to kill time. HN. G., Footless, Could be improved, More entertaining than instructive, Absurd, Rather tiresome, but no doubt beneficial to Levy, Agony for the listeners, etc. It is but just to state that we had not then been present at the magnificent display of Mr. Hawkes in the leading ease of Yjwm' 21.

Nine men have tried to increase their knowledge of the practice of law by going into offices. Many others have used their stores of learning of two years' accumulation by giving advice asked and unasked, or have managed to hang around oihccs in the summer time or whenever the opportunity was offered. ' Last year, after the first recitation our class would stream over to the City Court, almost as a whole, to view the novel scenes or hear the ingenious stories and explanations of old offenders, with once or twice the surprise of hearing a friend answering to a strange name on a charge of throwing a snow-ball or disturb- ing the peace. Only about twenty confess doing this, although we remember occasions when a roll- call of ,94 L. S. would have shown a more complete attendance there than at an average recitation. Sev- eral claim to have discontinued this practice, but a recent case aroused all the old interest in the pro- ceedings there. One says he attended it as an optional only, while another went only when able to prove an zzffbf. No one in the class has failed at sometime to attend some of the courts, and in our later days with our tastes better educated and more refined, we have taken great interest in the trial of civil cases in the Superior Court or in the arguments before the Supreme Court when it sits in New Haven, unless, indeed, Mr. Case was defending some one in the criminal side for murder or other felony. Five men own up frankly that they have been sub- jected to the humiliation of arrest, but their ingenu- ousness extends no farther--they do not relate any of the details which give .life and color to such experi- llllx XAl.l', Slllkl.l.l'.. 73 ences. Several exclaim against the personal nature of this question, as if they could a tale unfold, if they chose. One says, This is too much -dolzzs fair! fu ,gz'1zw'fz!z'bzzs. Under the head of narrow escapes, which we understood to mean escapes from arrest, all kinds of providential deliverences from accident and casualty as well as from the clutches of the law are narrated. Two men say they escaped manacles or a ride in the patrol wagon, one on the strength of a pull, the other out of sheer good fortune. One man stood by a friend, and suffered for it, while another received a bullet wound while trying to bag a- there a word of frequent use in the avigvf of medical students is usedj for Forensic Medicine. Other instances of narrow escapes, barring small-pox. drowning and falling from trees and windows are: Asked a girl if she would marry me, and she said she didn't know, Got caught stealing a pickle, Asked a young lady her age g one man's life was jeopardized by a tramp who wanted a nickel, and another man says he didn't escape. The narrowest escape recorded is that of one who was present at Koster and Bial's last Thanksgiving evening, and did not suffer for it. Seven men, of whom two are a little doubtful, intend to return next year for an M. L. course. Two more intend to take a course in the New York Law School. About thirty-live of us intend to go into the ofhces of older lawyers. Two say they are going in with their fathers, while another says, I am going to take Pa in with me. Hawkes may take an older lawyer in 74 TIIIC Y.-Xl.l'I SHINGLE. with him. One or two do not intend to practice. About a half dozen are going to start for themselves, while as many more are undecided as to what they will do. Bonsall says that in the breezes of western plainlets, will Hap this signboard: 'Bonsall, Lawyer, Cave t'!Z7ZL'7ll gm' hir 'zwz1'!. ' He knows what he means. Corporation law is the iield in which ten men will display their prowess. The mercenary exclaim that they will take anything that comes their way, and whatever is best paying will he most satisfactory. Three will go into Probate practice, and as many will undertake the difficulties of Patent Law. Some pre- fer Criminal Law, others will practice generallyg still others will single out those branches for which they have the greatest aptitude or inclination, as Equity, Constitutional and Divorce Laws. Carey will make a specialty of Evidence and Pleading, while another will devote his attention to Forensic Oratory and Moot Courts. Not prepared, says Hayden, from force of long habit. In short, if we do not take whatever falls our share or is most lucrative, we will select those subjects in which we take the most inter- est, or hope to achieve the greatest success. Our aims in life range from the most material and worldly to the loftiest and most ideal. When they reveal the ambitions which stimulate action, they are very interesting, but some of the devices adopted may prove deceptive, like the scriptural mottocs on thc walls of boarding houses, where they seem almost irreverent in view of the scenes they witness. Nearly any one of us would take the office of Presi- 'l'lll'1 YAl.li SlllNGl,l'I. 75 dent, if urged strongly enough. Fuller, who is not fastidious, would be satished with being Chief Justice of the United States or even Senator, while Whyte's ambition is to become the former. The aims of those of us whose aspirations are not political but strictly towards advancement in our profession, are exemplified in the following: To pass the bar exams. lMarvinl, To be a successful lawyer QHaskellj, To be a successful, respectable lawyer Qljowersj, To be a good man. an honest and suc- cessful lawyer Qflareyj, To make a name as a lawyer fRedingtonj, To know a few fGravesl, To be successful in my chosen profession QLevyl, To become a good lawyer QCousej, To be a leading and well-to-do member of the New London County Bar QR.

To remove all possible misapprehension, let us acknowledge that the glory of Cicero and Demos- thenes is not likely to be diminished by any efforts of ours. If, in any sense of the words, we may Hatter ourselves with the title of oratorical meteors, it must be in the suddenness of the collapse after a lofty liight. Yet to follow the well-patronizcd road of mediocrity is no disgrace. Much of our talent, how- ever, has successfully concealed itself from the unpitying, yes, almost insolent, stare of the Kent Club, as is evidenced by such outbursts of eloqucuce as were displayed in Moot Court by Hawkes, whose simple question, Who's he? and adjuration of the court to hasten the Holy Alliance of Divine with Human Law,were, in familiar phraseology, complete oratorical arts. Our styles of oratory are numerous and widely different: Carey, Conlon, Tyner, Montgomery, Red- ington, each is an orator Sll1.g'67ZU7'l1S':l: and no one is likely to infringe. The objects of the Kent Club are three: tal To awaken interest in the important questions of the day. Qbj To acquire knowledge of Parliamentary Law. fel To gain practice in Debate. Our work under division one may be explained by a reference to the answer of a certain Junior, who, on being asked in what line of business he was Nom, llo not confound with .vu1'j1rr11r. 78 TIIIC YALE Sl-IINGLIC. engaged, replied, Everything but horse-shoeingf' Unfortunately it is quite impossible to carry out completely the comparison for no one important question of the day has been slighted. There is no doubt, moreover, but that we have improved even on Congressional methods, for did not Fuller say in iifteen minutes what a certain Sena- tor required as many hours to say? Without tear of contradiction may it be said that Levy has raised more points ol order than any other man in the whole history of the Kent Club. Even that is putting it mildly and the complete idea would be, Levy is l:l1'St,lfl1C rest nowhere. It has been really pathetic to see how zealously he has guarded our interests in this respect and his I-Ierculean form recalling by the up-lifted right arm an auction-bidder will ever live in memory. Though, ot late, strange and sorrowful to tell, he has left us despairing of our ability to learn nevertheless we may prophecy that il any future member of the Kent Club dares to violate the sacred rules of Parliamentary Law, Levy will rise --if need be, from the grave-to a point of order. To mention any other parliamentarian in the class would be too severe an anti-climax. The Moot Congress held on December II, 1893, was a howling success. Nothing more need be said on this point except that special stress is to be placed on the epithet and that only the writer's limited vocabulary secured such easy treatment. In further explanation of this brief treatment of that highly important session, it may be stated that the writer was for one long hour the'target at which XVC1'C aimed Tllli YAl,l'I SIIINGIJC. 79 motions, appeals, questions of privilege, etc., ard izyf, and any extended review of the same is conducive to a recurrence of the general intellectual mania or raging incohercnce produced by the experience. The third division of our subject will be merely a consideration of The Moore-Gouraud Debate alias California fav. London. Probably no controversy in our entire history has occasioned so much discussion before and after, and this is onfered as the reason for its extended notice in this place. There seemed to hover about those names a magnetism, which attracted men who never before had displayed the slightest interest in the Kent Club and the many remarks preceding the eventful night promised a full force. Expectations were not left unfulfilled and the large crowd settled into quiet anticipation. The secretary having read the question of the evening, Resolved, that the abolishment of the House of Lords would be bencheial to Great Britain, Moore was called to the floor to lead the afhrmative. Without the least exaggeration may it be stated that,could those English Lords see themselves as painted in Room 13, Yale Law School, they would without delay beg leave of absence to enter the New Haven Night Schools. So much for the intellectual side of their characters, for their morals, no remedy but suicide. Gouraud, in the excitement of his response, forgot his London dialect and bravely supported his brothers. SO Tllli YAl.l'I SIIINGIJC. The climax was 1'eached when Moore, called again to the lloor, began with emphatic :f'left-hand gesture, Friends, Romans, Country-men ..... No pen can even passably describe that burning Hood of eloquence. Suffice it to say that it was just at this point of time that Demosthenes experienced his closest shave. Having restored, by a long but very gradual peroration,our hearts to normal condition, he was about to take his seat, when to the delight of all, Bowers moved an extension of his time. Gouraud having magnaniniously declared he hadn't the slightest objection to a continuance, believing it would make no particle of diH'erenec in the vote, we were again treated to California's brightest fancies. Of the many astounding statements made in the debate one that will live longest and hence deserves special men- tion, is the following: We had a Lord out VVestg he worked on our farm, and really that man was so disgustingly low he would smoke a cigrrette after mc. The vote upon the merits of the debate was very close and Moore in the generosity of his heart land the extent of the generosity maybe inferred from the fact that he offered to pawn his overcoat to lend a friend live dollarsj made every effort to give the vic- tory to the opposition. Boys, do not take it ill if your names do notappear in this short article and Boys, don't take it ill if your names do appear. i For a last time to recall to your minds the Kent Club, upon which I cannot place to high a value and to which I wish all success. -Y-mT .Nole.mvwE1oi'e is pxzolmbly lel't-handed. THE YALE SHINGLE. 81 Gentlemen, I thank you for your very kind atten- tion. M. A. REvNor.Ds. We cannot omit the opinions of the class at large in regard to the Kent Club. Some think that it serves a very useful purpose-one even declaring it to be a grand success, and another unhesitatingly pronouncing it to be the best debating club in the Law School. For the experience and training to be gained, quite a number recommend it. One says it is the cradle of orators, while another calls it a howling failure. Afarce, No good, A step in the right direction, but only one step, Footless, Very useful, Excellent, H Idea is good, Strong opinion reserved, are instances of the conflicting criticisms passed. Levy thinks it is not a success. Society allegiance is the cause of its ruin, according to another. Paueity of ideas is mentioned as its chief attribute. About thirty men confess that they are members, while five others say, significantly, that they once were. One man had never heard of it, while another didn't have the price. Not worth Sz, Ruled out for proficiency in speaking, Advice and observa- tion, Want of time and money, are given as reasons for not joining. The club was too exclusive for one who hated to 'fwaste his sweetness on the desert air. Suggestions of remedies for the present defects range from the most visionary schemes to total aboli- tion. Re-organization is demanded by several. A wider range of exercises and greater interest and S2 Tllli YAl,l'I SlllNGl.l'I. enthusiasm, closer lilial relations, among its mem- bers, more time for speakers, silence and thought, a sergeant-at-arms, more encouragement to the debaters, fewer meetings, disbandment and utter annihilation are the irreconcilable plans for improvement pro- posed. One man suggests turning it into a thinking club, while another thinks it could be successfully changed into a Vaudeville Club, with Carey to do serpentine dancesf' Levy's invincible point and 'l'yner's arguments are mentioned as strong points of the Kent Club. The practice and skill to be derived from debating are considered real advantages by several, while others praise the debates themselves and the general management. Levy's retirement from the club caused many to become suspicious as to its real value. The greatest defects arise from the marked lack of interest in the proceedings and ignorance of parlia- mentary usage. One laments the lack of Democrats and consequent Republican plurality when the Club becomes a Congress. Another thinks the members should be compelled to attend, for an orator can do very little before an audience of undemonstrative benches. Un the whole, although a few praise the Kent Club, and all commend the efforts of its offi- cers to increase its usefulness, there is still a feeling that some changes should be made which will render it more efhcient in its results, and more in eonsonanee with our ideas of such an organization. ,qw i 1 A L ,PFGT L, l 5 ,Q v -Q ,... w COUSE.

The history of the organization of the Yah' Law fonrmzl and its subsequent career until the end of the second volume was briefly sketched in the Jqlfc' .Shfzzgle for 1893. The board of editors who had so ably and devotedly directed its course during the sec- ond year of its existence thought best to re-elect one of their number that the experience gained with so much difhculty by them might be at the service of their successors. Harry G. Day was the recipient of the honor. The other members of the succeeding board were Percy Finlay, Andrew J. Balliet, Law- rence M. Byers, Howard A. Couse, Thomas F. Farrell, L. P. Waldo Marvin, and William B. Bosley. They organized by electing Mr. Finlay chairman, and Mr. Bosley secretary and treasurer. The retiring editors gave us the needed admonition and encour- agement as they surrendered into our hands the active management of the fomfmzl. Messrs. Balliet and Byers afterwards resigned and were succeeded by Harrison B. Freeman and Charles Weiser. VVe all thought we were honored, we now know that the price of the honor is serious and conscien- tious effort for which experience gained is the only compensation. For however strange it may appear, the Law fourfzal is the only publication at Yale which is not intended to confer pecuniary benefits upon its editors. It is hoped that this instance of unselfish devotion to the interests of the profession 84 THE YALE SHINGLE. and the Law School of which we are members may be instrumental to some extent in destroying the pop- ular impression that attorneys are mercenary rather than zealous servants of justice whose purpose it is to succor the oppressed. The fouwza! prospers, and in spite of tariff changes and industrial depression adds something to its sur- plus fund, the income of which is to be devoted to the enlargement and improvement of future volumes. As a legal publication the journal commends itself. Its contributors are lawyers of the Hrst rank and their productions are able treatises on important live topics. The support of the alumni has been cordial and second only to that of the Faculty of the Law School. And we believe that the journal has not been without influence upon the growth of the School in numbers and reputation. But this influence may well be doubled or even quadrupled. So far the fouwzzzl has served only as a medium for the discus- sion of legal questions. Another field lies open before it and should be occupied at once. Little or no effort has so far been made to keep the alumni and friends of the School in touch with its actual needs and active work. But an effort is now making to remedy this defect with fair promise of success. We are proud of the School and have confidence in its conservative methods and management. It is a good thing, and, therefore, we wish others to share in its advantages and in turn to spread abroad its fame. May the Law fomfmzl ever be true to learning and to Yale! P .W11,I,1AM B1mn1foR1m Bosm-:x'. 4 RELIGIOUS. Vv'e have not begun preparations for the next world on a very extensive scale. Only half of us are church members, and as we survey the two bodies of those within the pale of the church and those With- out it, we wonder how many of each will End St. Peter propitious and Heaven's gate open on that dreaded day, when we must depart to the right hand or to the left. Thirteen men are Episcopalians, seven Roman Catholics, seven Congregationalists, three Presbyterians and three Methodists, the rest are scattered from Hard-shell Baptists to Orthodox Jews. The preferences of those who have identihed them- selves with no particular denomination are divided as follows: Seven for the Congregational church, three for the Episcopal and two each for the Methodist, Presbyterian, and Universalist. The remainder of the class, with the exception of those who stand alone in their creeds, either have'no preference or have failed to state it. Very few confess that they are unable to accept the tenets of some form of religion, the fact being rather that they have formed no definite ideas on the subject. One man says he is a heathen, without any further comment on his spir- itual prospects, while another says he has a tendency towards Unitarianism and Agnosticismf' as if they amounted to the same thing. Bonsall says. I have slept with the Quakers, sung with the Presbyterians, 86 Tllli YAl.l'1 SlllNliI.li. shouted with the Methodists, chanted with the Epis- copalians, and now, in despair, I study the wisdom- religion of Buddha and Blavatsky. We regret to dismiss Cromer's creed after quoting only the con- cluding sentence: I believe the earth to be the proper location for Heaven -earth where all green- ness is not arsenical, like that of wall-paper. Non- seetarians are plentiful. These broad-minded men, who condemn dogmatism and denominationalism, stay away from church for fear of the charge of being narrow. Three men worship the God of Abraham, one of them says he adheres to the jewish religion Because it teaches Humanity and Truthg it is my religion by birth, and, since I could reason, by choice. It is the source from which all laws and religions have their origin. One man accepts in general the doctrine of evolution. Another sums his religion up in the Golden Rule. Six men attend Center Church, five Trinity, four St. Paul's, three each the United Church and the Church of the Redeemer. Many other churches in the city are mentioned by those who have been to church during the course. One man says he attended one once, but has forgotten its name. Nearly every imaginable reason, except devotion, is given for attending the different churches. The good choir and Dr. Munger's sermons are the chief attractions of Center Church, though one goes there because There are few contributions, and the contribution is a tax. Formosac pucllac are responsible for the incidental good that the many they lead to go to church derive from it.- One man goes to Trinity TI'I1'I VALE SI-IINGLLI. H7 because the people go thereg another says he goes for the benelit of the churchg while another goes there because his relatives do. Habit, convenience and preference take three men to St. Paul's, the fourth going 'ffor a consideration. One man goes to Dwight Place Church to rag dough. X N5 e X X Wx NN N ..

The names of these are so well known that it seems hardly necessary to give them. Professor Beers art- less question, What are pin-money trusts? disclosed the stains of one who had recently tied the nuptial knot, and made it generally known to his classmates. A few men, in reply to the question concerning matrimony, thank Hrovidcnce fervently for preserving them in the bachelor state, while the rest of us, observing the placidity with which these five learned of the extent of implied authority with which the law arms married women, conclude that there must be some compensating advantages. , Rumor is our only source of information in respect to engagements, although some circumstances, such as the purchase of building lots, regular disappear- ances from Saturday until Monday, and the like may shed some light on thc investigation. No one will frankly acknowledge that he is engaged, without mak- ing it absurd by some qualifying remark. Bonsall says he is uncertain as to the claimant, with 5 to I on Agnes, and Baum, who seems to be a regular Don Juan Qslightly modiiiedy, claims eight summer and three winter engagements. One man has for- gotten whethcr he is engaged just now or not, being unwilling to burden his mind with such trivial mat- ters, while several others are waiting, either for the girl's reply or papa's approval. Another is anxious 'l'Ill'I YAl.l'I SHlNGl.l'I. S9 to become engaged, but says, plaintively, No one would have me. Several men have made marriage contracts, which are peculiar in this respect, viz., that no future conduct can subject them to breach of promise suits or bigamy proceedings. Disbarment is the only species of legal annoyance to which they are liable-they are wedded to the law. Donovan has long been engaged to the Comic Muse. Only two men claim to have good prospects, A I, and bright, and only one thinks his are fair. Wheeler and Graves, who are the greatest fussers in the class, are silent concerning theirs. One man says all his prospects are retrospective, While nil, very thin, far, vague and dim, are the replies of the discouraged. One man answers in an enigma: 'l'hree days of grace. But as this topic is one which encourages dissimulation, it is not safe to wager on the chances of any except the hve Who have already placed jbmcs soles under coverture. Having, as we do, two Promenades, and countless Germans, it is hard to understand why we should go so little into New Haven society. The only explana- tion is that on these occasions our partners are chieliy foreigners. A number declare they know nothing of it, while Bonsall has brushed acquaintance with it 'fonly in a gmzsz' public way. Couse's only experience was a conversation with the Niagra Laun- dry's book-keeper. The Rink is the limit of one man's connection with it, while another has been in it as far as West Chapel Street. Church sociables, and the President's and Dean's receptions are men- tioned. Callahan, with forty year's experience in New Haven society, takes precedence over us all. 90 Tllli YAl.l'1 SIIINGLIC. Our opinions of New Haven girls are most con- tradictory. Graves, whose extensive researches entitle him to the weightiest opinion, pronounces them to be very nice. Among the favorable opinions the following may be given: Too charming for any- thing, Little jewels, Pretty, bright and lovely, Rich,but not gaudy, O, K., Out of sight, etc. Bonsall bursts out in the following: She has learned the rhyme of old, old time-, The doctrine so strange and true, 'l'hat everything goes, where nobody knows, So she paddles her own canoe. Others Qof whom some have the reputation of being misogynistsl give their opinions thus: Would do to flag a freight train, N. G., Bees in their bonnets, and so on with increasing emphasis. One man says that They are mediaeval fragments which would interestian antiquary, but have no charm for ine. Our knowledge of New llaven people has been chiefly confined to landladies and tradesmen, and hence our opinions apply, as a rule only to those two classes. They are said to be born for the purpose of lleeeing students, with the maxiins, Do others or they will do you, and Take in the strangers. One man says the women are undersized, andthe men disagreeable and discontentedf' Too slow to be pall-bearers, ' a band of robbers, leg-pullers every time, unfriendly, a cosmopolitan lot, musty, etc., are the criticisms .passed upon our hosts. One man thinks that- considered generally, New Haven l Tlllfl VALIC SIIINGLIC. 8 01 people resemble others in many particulars. Another says that, landladies excepted, they compare favorably withordinary Americans. A third, evidently indi- genous, declares they are as good as any people I have ever met. All of us go to the theatre. One man goes every free blow, and another never goes org Sun- day. The Hyperion is by far the most popular, although Poli's and the Grand often receive a generous sprinkling from our classr One man goes to all shows at all theatres, while the attendance of many depends on the price. We have little or no objection to the theatre--one man says time, another money, while a third objects to the moral degradation of the stage. Joe Jefferson is our favorite actor, closely followed by Donovan, whose comedies in the back of the reci- tation room draw immense c1'owds. Mansheld, with half of Donovan's vote, comes third, while Booth is! fourth. Sothern, Salvini, Marvin and Peter Jackson are also voted for. Lillian Russell, .lulia Marlowe, Sarah Bernhardt and Ada Rehan are tied for first place as favorite actress. Marie Tempest is second, followed by Ellen Terry, Mrs. Kendall, Modjeska, Fanny Davenport, etc. Our favorite play is Hamlet, The Rivals being second. The Merchant of Venice, Beau Brummelf' Kent Club Melodrama, Macbeth, Americans Abroad etc., receive votes. Around the End, and the Flying Wedge are the favorite plays of two men. 92 Tllli YALIC SIIINGIJ-I. Faust and Robin Hood are the two favorite operas, followed by Erminie, Wang, 1492, Chimes of Normandy, Fra Diavo1o,' 'H Bohemian Girl, etc. A few men in the class do not dance. Several dance only a little, one does when compelled to, and another with both feet. One man objects to dan- cing, because he can't dance himself, another does not like the system used on the Midway Plaisance. Two men think it stupid and a bore, while another objects to it only as it affects him. The waltz is our favorite dance, closely followed by the two-step. The dazzsc da veuiafc is also voted for by several, while the skirt dance, serpentine, can- can, kangaroo, polka and lancers are also mentioned. Thirteen men claim that they can sing, and two more say they try to. One finds it politic to obtain permission before hand, and another sings only when strongly urged. The Glee Club managers do not appreciate our talent, for we have never had a representative in that organization. The greatest number sing base, three baritone, two tenor and one falsetto. Boldwood sings a peevish tenor, Hamlin a husky one, while Bonsall sings soprano. Whyte can almost reach the high notes of Velluti. Daisy Bell is our favorite song, with After the Ball and Annie Rooney next. Others voted for arc Schulmert's Serenade, The Bowery, Com- rades, I Wandered Through my Sister's Appetite, f'Old Madrid, etc. Moore's Melodies are very pop- ular, and Lord George has acquired some reputation in song. Bonsall prefers ':Daisy Bell falling pz'a1zz's- simo into the Bowery. TIIE YALE SHINGLE. 93 Eight men say that they can extract a succession of harmonious sounds from a piano and one can play an organ. Several are skilful with hand-organs and hurdy-gurdies. Two men play the Jews' harp, while different ones play the banjo, zither, harmonica, bazoo, etc. Denniston can play any instrument from whence any sound can be made to issue. One man plays only written instruments, another preferring sealed, as the seal imports a consideration. A third confines his attention to musical instruments, Violin music and the music of the spheres are tied for first place as our favorite kind of music. Orchestra music and waltzes come next, chin music, minor chords, Wagner, brass bands, classic, Chopin, street and circus music following. Vocal music is preferred by only one man. Another is in doubt which he likes better, Lord George's After To- night, or Those Green Plush Breechesf' by the same master. We play all games ancient and modern, from foot- ball to chess. One man can play everything and another everything except tiddle-dy-winks. Our favorite game is whist, with every other game at cards mentioned. Billiards, pools, checkers, fan-tan and tag are voted for. One droll fellow says his favorite game is quail. Only three men object to cards, one when gam- bling is prohibited, another when it is not, and a third says laconically, jS53o worth. Card playing is not objectionable pw' sc, but the methods employed by some men are not satisfactory to their victims. A few members of the class do not smoke, and about as many do not bet, especially since the last Q4 Tllli YALE SHINGLE. election. There is said to be one teetotaler in the class. Every one uses more or less slang. The uncommonest vice in the class is iiirting-the class picture indicates the cause of this. Beer is our favorite drink, closely followed by water. Then comes a great variety-mint julep, milk, whisky, sherry Hips, prairie cocktails, vichy nectar, etc. One man drinks everything, and another, following the drinker's hrst maxim, always takes the same. Nearly every man in the class has a favorite amuse- ment peculiar to himself. Two men vote for cards, and two for dancing, and then follows a long list of amusements: Yachting, boating, grinding, reading cases, working, sleeping, attending Moot Court and the theatre, billiards, answering statistic questions, hearing Lord George talk English and recite, and loahng. One man amuses himself and educates his sense of sight by watching Brecken- ridge's mustache grow. One or two amuse them- selves by coming to recitations when engagements permit. ' . ...I POLITICAL. Since the overwhelming victory of Cleveland our class has been very quiet on the subject of politics. The Republicans are still sore, the Democrats are generous. The ring in the Kent Club managed to survive, but one who had known us in the fall of 1892 would hardly recognize us now as the same class. Twelve of our number were so foolish as to vote for Harrison then, and two of these even con- fess that they had been guilty of the same folly in 1888. Eight wise men voted for Cleveland when he was last before the people for election. Major Cal- lahan has voted the straight Democratic ticket since 1872, and Conlon has never scratched but one Dem- crat, and then he bolted with his party. Two men have voted for the last three years, but most of the voters in the class have only exercised this right since the last Presidential election. Governor Morris and Governor Russell each owe our class graditude for one vote, and even the present Governor of Vermont received a vote from one member of the class. One man took advantage of the opportunity to vote for Averill for Registrar. All the voting of another has been for himself, and a third has voted an incalculable number of times to adjourn the Kent Club. Thirty- Hve men have voted at elections occurring at some time or place. Twenty-eight men are thoroughbred Republicans, one is inclined in that direction and two are Inde- 96 Tllli 'YAI,li Sl'lINGl,li. pendent Republicans. Twenty-live of us are out and out Democrats, and there is one Mugwump. One bold fellow says he owes allegiance to no party. The rest are too young to know what they are politically. Thirty-one men believe in protection in different degrees, while only ten men believe in absolute free trade. Five men think that a mean should be struck between the two, and several others believe in a tariff for revenue only. Several men favor free trade on principle, but think that the arti- licial condition to which the country has been brought by long continued protection, renders the further maintenance of the same imperative under the cir- cumstances. Two men say they believe in both in reason, although it is hard to understand how this happy compromise is possible. Twenty men believe that the ten per cent. tax on the issues of State banks is a wise provision, but ten others favor a repeal of the law imposing it. One man says he will never believe that the tax is improper while he can remember '49, and another scents immediate danger in repeal. In the future an appeal may become expe- dient, one thinks, and another thinks that a proper substitute for this law can be found in one requiring State bonds as securities for issues. Quite a number have formed no opinion on the subject. The Campaign Clubs drew about twentv men from our class, fourteen of these were in the Phelps' Bri- gade and six in the Cleveland Guards. Free liquor and lunches were held out as inducements to parade and although these usually proved mythical, five or six times each faction marched about the town I 'I'lIl'1 YAI.l'l SIHNGLI-I. 97 beneath the glare of the red light which was so lav- ishly supplied. Captain Lawlor and Lieutenant Donovan were in their elements--the rest of the company consisted of Ward and Reynolds, besides the ofhcers and a few Seniors. We marched through all native kinds of mud and many doubtful districts of the town, where our numbers and splendor were our only protection. Sometimes jeers and boots were our portion, at others we found the crowd gen- tlemanly and sympathetic. Very few interesting events are recorded. The election of Cleveland twhich was no doubt assured by the paradesl was most satisfactory to one, while Wayne McVcagh's oration pleased another most. Some men cannot remember minutely just what did occur. One gives this following vivid description of a parade towards its close: Stormy night, deep mud, borrowed suit, long march, vociferous lungs, weary, but patriotic. Another sums up his experience thus: llat burned, feet wet-saw a light. Several men got into trouble on account of handling Roman candles carelessly. One man says he nearly blew a fellow's head off, but left before anything interesting ensued. As we look back, we can hardly understand why we should incur such risks for the little good and pleasure such campaigning affords. Eight men, Conlon, Cromer, Averill, Callahan, Hedden, Freeman, R. P., Dowd and Barker have held public ofhce. Registrar, Justic of the Peace, Councilman, Ofhcial Stenographer, Court Clerk, etc., have been their titles. Hawkes says indignantly that 93 'l'Iil'l x',x1,1a s111No1.1s. hc ncvcr hold L1 public onicc, adding by way of ox Jlanution, I um an honest man. Bonsall su fs, 5 7 My wcll known modcsty has long forbidden my wooing thc public wculf' X f' K si xg X 42, FINANCIAL. Twenty-nine men have engaged in occupations more or less remunerative. Some men have tried several, as Bowers, for instance, who would like to know of one which he has not tried. Levy has been a photographer for thirteen years--the longest period probably that any of us has spent in one held. Bon- sall regretfully calls to mind some speculations in real estate which did not turn out well. Bosley and Farrell have each taught school for several years, the former being on the Yale College Faculty for a short time. Freeman, H. B., worked a bank a little dur- ing summers, Montgomery farmed a little, but does not tell whether agriculture pays or not-he quit. Cromer, as has been before stated, was Ofheial Sten- ographer in South Dakota, and Barker held a similar position in New Haven. Clark says, I was my daddy's cashier-quite remunerative to myself. Weiser has helped to support himself by selling old clothes to Moses, whom in turn Morgan has helped to support by giving them to him. Buttle says he was porter on a Pullman car, but resigned on account of the incompatibility of his and the conductor's tempers. Carey assisted his father in paper-hanging and wood-finishing. Reynolds and a few others have picked up scattered Shekels by tutoring to a greater or less extent. Hardy, in consideration of carrying water to the elephants, was admitted free of charge ,- . . . Q ,- . 100 llllz X.-Xl.l'. Slllhi-l.l'.. to a circus. These animals showed an alarming capacity for that beverage. These are fair samples of what we have done to help ourselves, although endless other occupations have been named, from telegraphing to running a faro den. Fifteen men have themselves paid all their expenses incurred since entering the Law School, and several others have earned the chief part of the money they have used for their support. Some say they have paid all that has been paid, a phrase only to be interpreted in one way by those who know them. Cromer says he has supported himself for the last twenty years. Two have written athletic and college news for the papers, and two have coached foot-ball teams. Haskell, one of the latter, has also drawn heavenly strains from the Dwight Place Church organ. Teaching in Night Schools has kept Woolf from the street, and protected R. P. Free- man's door. Many have made a generous use of tick, and two have borrowed money outright. The rest of us have either drawn checks or cashed them. Weiser, after a trip to England on a freight- steamer, calls them cheques Bonsall f' has drawn a few checks, and cashed others, and Hawkes says he won six cents matching. Hayden Ends fan-tan a lucrative game, but says it can only be played success- fully with a stolidity of mien and absence of expression. PHYSICAL. The average weight of our class is about 145 pounds, as nearly as can be calculated from the not quite complete returns sent in, making the entire weight of the class about five and one quarter tons. Whittlesey's little legs support the greatest avordu- pois-205 pounds. Freeman, R. P., carries around 195, Mull and Hardy following with 185 a11d 183 respectively, and quite a number weigh more than 175. Baum is our bantam at 105 pounds, with Wright at 114 and Levy at 117 following in the featherweight class. The Colossus of the class left us last year in the person of Dennis O'Neil, so that Baldwin Qthanks to an inflexible pompadourj, and Larkin are the tallest men left, each being six feet and one-half inch tall. Callahan, Durant, Goodman, Haskell and Merritt claim six feet of stature. Levy says he is only hve feet tall, but if this is true, there must be a continual 77ZZ.7'fQQL' above the desert near his crown, making him seem sev- eral inches taller. Wright is five feet two and one half, while Baum claims live feet five. Bosley wears a seven and one-half hat, while But- tle finds seven and three-eights a suitable size all the time except in the morning. Seven and one-quarter is a very common size, while an eighth less is worn by the average man. Carey, Farrell, Moore and Wright wear six and seven-eights, the smallest size reported, while a dozen wear sevens. 102 Tllli YAl,l'l SI'lINGl,l'l. Donovan has a neck which the Dennis in Bar- naby Rudgeu would have gloated over--it takes a sixteen and one-half collar to surround it. Dennis- ton also wears the same size, but ordinarily a collar is not worn as a disguise. Sixteens are quite common among the larger men in the class. Only fourteen inches are necessary to conceal Dowd's larynx. Hayden llike many others, wears only fourteen and one-half, but he compensates for shortness in length by immense altitudes. Number ten is the size of the receptacles in which Marvin and Adams enease their feet. No other size above nine is reported. Dowd wears the smallest shoe, three and one-half, VVright next with a four and one-half, Baum following with a five. Of course our eyes are of many different colors, blue being the most common. Gray follows next, and then comes brown. The rest are all different, from Breckenridgds Cimmerian black to Bonsall's liquid, cerulean gray. Several with yellow-green claim blue eyes, and two say their eyes are hazel. One says his are mottled, and another says his are white, gray and black in zones. Our noses are all shapes from Weiser's pronounced Roman to I-Iardy's plain American. Bonsall's varies with each football season. Hayden claims a Titian style. A harmonious blending of all extant styles, pug, very best, large enough for ordinary, the only style I've ever used, correct, proper, Roman, Graeco-Roman, Grecian, 'flineal para- bola, present style, . etc., are descriptions of all kinds of noses, from Moore's retrozasse to Sherman's gibbous style. 'l'lIl'I VALIC SIIINGLE. IGB Very few men use glasses constantly. Six or eight use them to read or study with. Reasons for wearing them are, among others, hereditary, looks digni- fied, eyes injured by gun powder, and weak, cross-eyed from trying to watch three men at once in a poker game, etc. The prevailing reason for not wearing them is that they are not needed, or come too high. One man uses glasses only when they are full, and another when he can't get a stein. One uses opera glasses in place of the ordinary thing. The color of our hair is brown, black, tow, straw, llaxen, blonde, and every other hue of the rainbow and spectrum. Gouraud says his is blonde, nice and curly, while Baum takes great pride in his wavy auburn tresses. Donovan says his ambrosial locks are gilt-colored, while Conlon's hair is of an invisible shade. Mustaches are scarce in the class, with the excep- tion of Foster's and Callahan's truculent one. Ful- ler's has such a willowy droop that you look twice ere you realize what it is. Bosley, in emulation of certain Thespians, removed a very Hourishing one. Five others lay pretensions to them, although, in their present embryonic stage, it is hard to say what the future has in store for them. Havana, black, clay, blonde and yellow are given as the colors, one man says, in disgust, it would be red. Only one man says his mustache is a complete success-he says, It is a complete disguise when gone. Another calls his a vested, springing use. Fuller, of late, has been trying experiments with his face, and the more immediate results of his efforts are that his appear- IO4 'l'lIl'l VALIC SHINGLIC. ance in recitation wakes to ecstasy a hundred hidden Aiolian lyres,whose mournful sighs hinder our progress in law. Very few remark on their personal appearance. Modesty makes us reticent. Jacques and Gouraud tell us what the girls think of them, and it is evident, from their accounts, that both are winners Bald- win gives us a spray of local rhyme: Oh, I'm a dashing Beacon swell, As you can plainly see, With whiskers rare and complexion fair, The world's in love with me. Only a poet can take such liberties with the truth. Tall and thin, no dude, neat, but not gaudy, most unprepossessing, impressive, discourag- ing, are examples of the various criticisms passed. The Major congratulates himself on his military bearing and good carriage. Carey thinks he resem- lmlcs George Washington. The Rogue's Gallery con- tains the counterfeit of one man. The rest, con- scious of mistreatment at Nature's hands and feeling the extent of their misfortune, refrain from comment. I ATHLETICS Circumstances conspired to make '94 unique among classes in the history of the Yale Law School. It fell to her lot to organize and maintain a base ball team, winning honor and renown, and finally bring- ing home to the School the only trophy ever won in a VVorld's Intercollegiate Base Ball Tournament. The team was an outgrowth of the ill-favored undergraduate rule, the rule which cost Yale the championship in both base ball and football and threatened to annihilate the Yale spirit which has won our Alma Maier' so much glory. When the obnoxious rule was promulgated '94 was the first to take active measures in opposition. These culminated in the famous University meeting of Feb. I, 1893, when the rule was defeated-502 to 440. Had this vote gone the other way no such thing as the Law School Nine would ever have existed. But fate decreed otherwise. The vote was not allowed to stand and was reversed in the very ques- tionable proceedings that took place about a fort- night later. Then it was that the spirit of ,Q4H was roused. The red-hot meetings for permanent organization of a Law School Base Ball Association followed, in which even the county sheriff was moved to take a hand. In spite of jealousy and suspicion, in the face of the most strenuous opposition, in defi- ance of the most subtle wire pulling of certain mem- '06 'l'Ill'I YALE SHINGI.li. bers of '93, we completed an organization and elected H. R. Durant manager of the nine. Once over that breaker, we found it fairly open sea. R. S. Baldwin, '93, was elected president, H. A. Couse, '94, secre- tary and treasurer, and H. O. Bowers, captain. Our movements had aroused widespread interest. As soon as permanent organization was announced chal- lenges came pouring in. Most favorable terms were made, for our strength was recognized from the first. Financial support was not lacking, for S400 was sub- scribed and paid in at once. Training began about March 1 and by Fast Day the nine was so well in hand that the Connecticut State Champions at Waterbury fell an easy prey in the opening game. The Easter vacation then inter- vened, but we celebrated the beginning of the new term and the actual season by administering her first defeat to Wesleyan at Middletown. From then till Commencement the team fared full well, winning its share of games and doing credit to the School. Only one game was played at home, and won,- with the N. Y. A. C., who had just defeated the College nine. Brown, Wesleyan, Fordham, Dart- mouth, Georgetown, Johns Hopkins all fell victims to our prowess, while Harvard barely defeated us by the score of 4 to 3, said to be the best game played on Holmes' Field during the season. Amherst's cham- pion N. E. College League nine played us a tie game. .lust following Commencement the nine went to Chicago to take part in the World's Fair Intercol- legiate Base Ball Tournament. Here we met Amherst, University of Vermont, and University of Tlllfl VALIC SIIINGLIC. IO7 Virginia. The team was altered somewhat by the accession of Carter and Kedzie from the College nine, and the consolidation shows what the real strength of the 'Varsity might have been last year. Losing two games meant disqualification from the tournament. We lost the iirst one. It was a had outlook, but tjust here we developed the historic Yale sand, sometimes called Yale luck. Our second game was with Vermont, who had been our opponents in the first game. It was in the ninth inning that we proved our right to live. With the score 1 to o against us, and with our last turn at the bat, we batted and ran out two tallies, all done so quickly as to leave the poor Vermonters dazed and limp. ,93 divides the honors of that game with us, for Parsons did the batting and running that tied the score, while Graves batted in the winning run. Vir- ginia fell an easy victim and Amherst alone stood between us and victory. She made us a stubborn iight, but at the close of game No. 1 we had one score to her nothing, while in the decisive game we were bet- ter stayers, making nine runs toward the end of the game and again shutting her out. The trophy of the tournament was a beautiful sil- ver and gold cup offered by A. G. Spalding, and presented to the happy victors by Mayor Carter Har- son. This was the end of a glorious season. After trials most serious we had ended our mission. We had earned a unique trophyg we had smashed the undergraduate rule. The cup stands in the librarv, an everlasting memorial of our eiforts. Y Manager Durant's men were a jolly combination. ION Tllli Y.Xl,l'1 SI-IINGLIC. The manager himself did lots of tall hustling and played an errorless game. Many of his hits were timely. Willie Norton christened the team the Indians, and the name stuck. Willie's weakness was telling about Claremont and the Kersages and Waukegan, but we all got used to those yarns. Beiclleman did the catching and proved his sand in the hrst game when, after one eye had been closed by a stray foul tip, he caught the game of his life. Denny O'Neill's shape on first base caught the crowdg Baltimore people jollied Papa O'Neill and his chil- dren. Reddington started the season at second, but showed so much ability as a Helder that he was changed to left iield. Farrell proved a valuable man both at third base and behind the bat. An unfortu- nate accident kept him out of several important games. Parsons was a ,Q3 man, and when he could be lured into the game, did much brilliant work. His batting at Chicago helped materially to win the day there. Brady, Curtis and Foster were a rare trio of outhelders. Their like has never been seen before, nor will it ever be seen again. Brady and Foster could never see what use Curtis Was, Cur- tis and Foster didn't appreciate Brady, nor did Brady and Curtis understand the hue points of Fos- ter's play. Brady was from the wilds of the Pacific coastg Foster was a Maine Yankee and had made his mark at Colbyg while Curtis was dubbed by the bleachers a Sheeney, a Dago, a Chinaman, a Creole, and an Indian Curtis himself said he came from New York, He played good ball and that excused his various enthusiasms. Murphy and THE YAl.l'l SHINGLIS. 109 Lander came from the undergraduate departrnent to play with us and Sharpe from the Medical School. Out of thirty-two games we Won twenty.

APPEARANCE. So many views of what handsomeness consists in are held by different members of the class, and the elements of beauty are divided, in small quantities for each, among so many of our class fthere being no one in whom they all eombinej, that there is great diver- sity in the opinion as to who is the handsomest man in the class. Durant, without any canvassing before- hand, received the greatest vote, with R. P. Freeman second. Levy, H. B. Freeman, Torrance, Bosley and Graves follow in the race. Blue-eyed Willie receives a vote or two, and Bowers' athletic fame brought him one admirer. Sherman, after a few necessary alterations, would seem handsomest to one, while another thinks that a Hash-light of Conlon, in the heat of debate, would surpass anything. One man suggests that if some modern Frankenstein could only have for materials Sherman's nose, Marvin's mouth and double chin, Moore's clear eyes, Dono- van's locks with a sprinkle here and there of Baum's, Levy's reach of forehead, and a complexion of the color of the back of Conlon's head, he could con- struct a very prepossessing creature. The proud vote for themselves. The number of men who are voted for as the home- liest is so large that it makes us hesitate concerning the impression we must make on those who are 'I'l'Il'l YALIC Sl'llNGl.li. 111 obliged to look at us often. Gouraud, Levy, Den- niston, Goodman, Weiser and Wheeler are aspirants for this honor, there are a numerous body who receive one or two votes, whose names we omit on grounds of public policy. Those who are fond of catching men in attitudes think Brown, arguing his point with the Professor, G. E. Hall trying to win the Professor, and Judson S., hurrying to catch the twelve-five train, are in their homeliest phases. VVe consider Reynolds the brightest man in the class, his vote doubling that of any other. Foster, Boltwood and Couse are tied for second place, while .Bosley, Whyte and Whittlesey COIUC third. Both Freemans, Montgomery, Hawkes, Lockwood, Bow- ers and Callahan receive votes--a sufficient nnmber to remove any doubt that brains can find a good home behind faces and features which are not fasci- nating. Fuller has impressed our class as possessing what Carlyle calls genius-an unlimited capacity for work. He receives twenty-two votes for the position of dig, far distancing all other competitors. Couse and Wright are tied for second place with ten votes each. Graves, Coulter, Marvin. Smith and Wheeler are also named. Bonsall and Denniston are well known as indefatigable toilers. Weariness can snore on flint, we prescribe to Weiser as an infallible cure for insomnia. We consider our class to be a regular cave of fEolus turned loose. Tyner's Kent Club reputation still dogs him, and he receives twenty votes for the windiest man. Adams, too, is almost a simoon, ren- dering beautiful places waste and uninhabitable, and II2 TI-Ili YALE Sl'IINKil,li. comes a close second with seventeen votes. The gentler zephyrs are Fuller, Wright, Cromer, Sherman and Wheeler. Adams wins the race for most conceited in a walk. Gouraud alone is close enough to be considered in the race, with Wheeler, Graves, Hayden, Baum, Tyner and Bowers visible in the distance. Cur esteem for Foster shows itself in the large vote of seventeen which he receives for the most popular man. Redington is second with seven votes. Donovan, Reynolds, Bosley and Durant are in the next group, with Freeman, Clark, Weiser and Bowers traveling as third class. No difficulty at all was experienced in selecting the one most select and generous in the matter of ap- parel. High collars, hunting stock, English patterns and low-cut, crescent-necked vests rendered Lord George prime favorite. He receives thirty-five votes, the most unanimous opinion we hold. Chrysanthe- mums and red neckties pierced with a diamond pin at the exact spot indicated by Vqgwc gives Buttle a vote of nine. A famous pair of Plymouth Rock trousers, accompanied by an equally famous pair of Douglas' Three Dollar shoes, snatched Marvin from oblivion, while Hayden's immaculate linen and creased jeans secure him some mention. Other fashion plates are Hawkes, Bonsall, Baum, Cromer, Sherwood and Jacques. The wary and cautious refuse to select the man whom they think will make the greatest success as a lawyer. H I don't know, Remains to be seen, etc., are their replies' to this question. Those who do THE YALE SHINULE. 113 make a selection differ very widely in opinion. Fos- ter, however, is again iirst, with Bosley, R. P. Free- man and Couse following evenly and closely. Rey- nolds, H. B. Freeman, Callahan and Whittlesey are also believed by some to have in them the stuff success is made of. One man thinks Levy would startle the civilized world if he would quit hiding himself under his camera cloth. Hayden, by gazing on himself grown blind, votes for himself. i ik iiii ' .1 ii. Will l '- VALEDICTORY TO TI-IE GRADUATING CLASS OI 1894. BY SIMIQON li. IEALIJWIN. I send by these lines my farewell greeting to three classes which are to leave the Law School this sum- mer. It is an early farewell, for the best months of the year are still ahead of us. The last months of any study are always the best. They have the broadest foundation, the clearest outlook. To my graduate classes I bid good-bye with a closer feeling of personal association and familiarity than I can claim as respects the greater numbers of and the greater number in the Senior class. A teacher comes closer to a dozen or fifteen men, whom he meets in a hand-to-hand discussion, in his office, or around the same long table, than he can to a class of seventy-five or a hundred. The studies, too, in which they are engaged with him, are more difhcult, and so ought to be more interesting and engaging both to the teacher and the taught. As I advance towards Commencement with the fourth-year men, I can form some definite anticipation as to their future success. I know what is in each, where he is weakest, and where he is strongest. I know, too, that he has got, or had the chance of get- ting, all the Yale Law School has to give, and I TIIIC YALE SIIINGLIC. IIS believe that as we were the Hrst school in England or America to establish a four years' course, so we still offer the best opportunity, in either country, to add a knowledge of jurisprudence to that of law, by a system of daily exercises and examinations. Nor do we feel unacquainted with the individual qualities of each of our third-year men. They are having, if they make the most of it-the best year of their course. The elements of the science to which they have devoted their lives are beneath their feet. They have acquired a stock of general ideas. They have learned to choose the important, and pass lightly over what is occasional or exceptional, in the subjects they pursue. They are applying knowledge already gained to new purposes, and in new directions. They have come to a point where they can rightly measure the relations of things in legal science. I feel reasonably sure of the success in life of a third-year man, whose recitations have shown me that he can apply old principles to new circumstances and conditions with promptness and intelligence. It is a subject of regret to the Faculty that so few of our men can or will take the third year. The fourth year I recommend to no man, who has not an ambition to be a scientific scholar in his profession-to know whatever is to be known of it. But a third year, either in a Law School, or under some good lawyer's instruction, I regard as almost a necessity for every man who would practice with distinction at the bar. Native talents, habits of mental discipline, acquire- ments in other sciences, may and do take its place with manyg but if they had added a third year of 116 Tllli YALE SIIINGLIC. legal study to whatever else they possessed, their dis- tinction would be far more solid and splendid. I know, however, that the res mzgusfcz a'om1', and the modern tendency to dally at the preparatory school through precious years that belong to the College course, will take the majority of our Seniors, next Fall, into the active work of the professiong but I bid you, who are of this number, farewell, not with- out some misgivings as to your future. There are those among you, as in all large classes that ever graduated from any institution of learning, who came to Yale rather as an institution of pleasure, or of necessity, with the aim of doing as little work as possible, and cutting all the exercises that the rules of the Faculty would permit. I dare say some of these men will do well at the bar, in spite of them- selves. Native wit and energy are worth far more to a man than anything books can teach. An occa- sional great effort, in a jury trial turning on questions of the weight of evidence, may give a reputation in the community, which overshadows that of many a learned lawyer, with less gifts of speech. But the community will learn before long whom it is safe to trust with important causes, and it will seldom be those who shirked their work in their preparatory studies. There are more of you who have tried to do your duty, and that means, of course, that you have done it, for an honest trial is achievement, in itself. You have worked all the harder when the subject was dry, or the lesson long. You have cultivated opportuni- ties for debate at the Kent Club, you have sat Tllli YALIC SlIlNllI,l'l. II7 through weary hours at Moot Courts, where the arguments you heard were mainly useful as showing you what was to be avoided, when your turn came. You bought the cases, instead of borrowing one just long enough before the recitation to give time to read the head-note. You made study first, and ath- letics, or society, second. As I write I have in my mind not a few Seniors of this make and record, on whom the world will set its stamp of approbation. The world of action is impa- tient to welcome to its ranks just such young men. There are places waiting for them-not high at first, but sure to pave the way to something better. There are always enough men to fill the ranks of the pro- fession, but never enough to serve as commanders, and in nothing else is promotion surer to come to merit than in the practice of law. And as I bid good-bye to the average man, I know that he too, will before long bring his bark to anchor in some safe harbor. He is, after all, as good as the rest of the world, for the most part, and a little bet- ter, for good fortune or kind Providence has given him a particularly pleasant kind of work todo. Such a man will often find business come to him more quickly than it does to one more talented and who may be so ambitious of great things as to neglect small ones. To all of you I would say, Donlt be impatient of immediate distinction. If you deserve it, it will come in good time. Don't be discouraged at small beginnings. They are the appointed lot of almost every young professional man. Don't forget to keep IIS TIIIC VALIC SIIINGLICQ on with some regular legal studies, every day, for an hour or two at least. And don't forget, as life goes on with all its oppo1'tunities for good and evil, that you are alumni of a great University, and in honor bound to do nothing to discredit her name. This has been a serious kind of valedictory. As we older men see troop after troop of you young fel- lows iiling off, every year, to spread over the country, with the power to act the part, either of ministers of justice, or of injustice, we follow your steps with hope, not untinged by anxiety. All cannot succeed, as the world counts success. Some will not deserve it. But for most of you of the three classes of 1894, we shall look for it, and with confident assurance that wc shall not look in vain. S1M1f:oN li. Iiaimwix. February 6, 1894. Q -jiwsy ...E , FK . . 'l Y 3- 'vi ,I l 3,:- Q MISCELLANEOUS. It is a subject of great regret that no one has ever taken the trouble to organize two teams of question- askers to settle in a fair trial the disputed right to championship. Last year much enthusiasm was excited by such a contest and one result at least was a wonderfully alliterative poem by an anonymous writer. We sincerely regret the necessity of being obliged to omit this attractive feature, when so much material was at hand-much more ample than any that could be found for any athletic team. Have the efforts of Cromer's philosophic mind been of no avail? Have the exertions of Adams, Denniston, Hall, Tyner and Fuller been in vain? Be this as it may, what was a settled fact in ,Q3 is an open controversy in '94. In the course of our lives, we have traveled a great deal, considered as a class, although some of us have revolved in rather circumscribed orbits. Ten men have travelled over a greater or less part of Europe, while many have been over a large part of the United States. Bonsall has travelled the most in longitude, from Mexico to Russia. while Moore. besides cross- ing the American Continent several times, has been from the Arctic Circle to the South Seas. Gouraud has crossed the Atlantic twelve times and calculates thirty-three as the proper number for the channel- once he went over and never came back. Smith has 120 Tllli YAl,li SHINGLPI. been all over Central and Northern Europe, and Sherman says the limits of his travels are the Miss- issippi and the Adriatic. Donovan and Weiser were abroad last summer. The least distance was that cov- ered by one man who went to Fair Haven to a tire, though if he found it, he deserves a name as an explorer. Another has been to East Rock, West Rock and Woodbridge, while a third has made a pil- grimage to the home of Bowers. One man has only been as far as his face would take him. The time when we have performed the journeys varies from birth to a period when flush. About fifteen or twenty men were candidates for the Board of Editors for the Law Journal. Bonsall quit contributing when his article on the Law of BluH's was rejected. Forty or hfty have subscribed for that 1awyer's :fade meemzz, while several others fwho nevertheless secure a copy of each numberl are uncertain whether they take it or not. Some men have contributed to the columns of the Plforld, fiferzzld, Globe, M07'7ZZ'7lg' Nefvs, Regzlrlef, Philadel- fzkza Times and many others. Gouraud says he has written for the Afgglo-Ameweaaz Regfsler fGermanyj, and Hayden claims to have contributed to Se1'Mfzer'.v. One man writes only for sample copies. Bolt- wood was an editor of the Yale Literary! M0gR.5l.7ZU, Fuller of the Reeorfl, Mull of the De Pauav lflfeekb, and Brown of the l3own'oz'1z Orieuf. We have fur- nished regular correspondents for the Pkz'!mz'eQ5hz'a Press, Ckzkzzgo ffzler-Oeezm, Nezw York W'01'!d and ffenzld, Chd7'!L'Sf07Z Ne'fi1s and Ci0Zl7'l.6'7', etc. Durant has been connected with half a dozen dailies. Tllli YALE SIIINGLE. 121 As is usual, with all classes, the lfcgzlvlcv' is our favorite New Haven paper. It receives thirty-five votes. The fJlZ!!!Z1llZ.2l77Z is second with six votes from those who make so great a sacrifice to politics. The LQUIZIZZ-7Zg' Leader' and the fomvza! and Comiw' come next. Gouraud says, 'fl prefer the JIIo1'fzz'1zg' Nczus because it says such nice things about me. Our class has the honor of being the Hrst to revolt from the long-entertained View that the Tfffbmze is the best New York paper. We vote the lfcralzi best with twenty-five votes, while the 7q7'l.b7l7ZL', which is second, receives only twelve, closely followed by the Smz with ten. The Rec01'de1', Press, Times, TMJM, Town 7'oj1z'rs, Police Gazette and f'1Z'7'6.S'Z'li6' Cofzzjmfzzluz are also voted for. Nearly all of us would modify our conduct to some extent if we could go over our course again. The greater number say they would be more studious and pay closer attention in recitation. The importance of learning the Elementary Law is greatly empha- sized. The changes which we would make are sufh- ciently illustrated by the following, Would take a few cuts Qflaydenj, Work harder and never go into so-called society, QGouraudj, Would change my action from one of waste to speciic performance QBonsallj, Eject poker players from my room, Study harder and be more sociable, Flunk less often, Begin with the M. L. course, Be a Yale graduate, Give up athletics, Look out for cases on the exams, and Cultivate a pull with the Fac- ulty. 122 Tllli YALE SHINGLIC. i If succeeding classes would only proiit by our mis- takes and experiences, the President could make proper appointments to the United States Bench from new graduates. Some of the suggestions offered arc: Memorize the Elementary Law, Attend 42 per cent, Stick to the text-books, Dig for dear life, Don't waste time in the courts, Digest subjects as you go along, Use Mother Winslow's Soothing Syrup when studying Pleadingf' Avoid the sporty element, Follow in the foot- steps of '94, Follow my example, and Be virtu- ous and you will bc happy. The opinions we hold of our own class vary from very discouraging to the warmest and most patriotic: An estate with a much conditioned remainder, Deliciously cosmopolitan, An incongruous collec- tion of heterogenous bipeds, Beyond expression, 'hlolliest class that ever graduated from the Yale Law School, Hale fellows, well met, A beaut., Angels compared with the Juniors, The milk of human kindness, and the egg of eminence, The Search Light of the University, Good timber for distinguished men, The best class of the best col- lege, etc., show the different views taken. Sherman has the last word, when he says it is The one far off, divine event, To which all creation moved. Now the SHINGLE throws itself on your generosity, hoping that you will be kind in your criticisms and 'ring mtis SIIINGLIQ. IZB merciful in your judgment. Remember, if your foi- hles and weaknesses appear on these pages, that noth- ing is said to wound the feelings, and take everything in the spirit of good humor in which it is intended.

Few libraries have complete sets of the State and Federal Reports, Csome 3,600 volumes, containing about 350,000 cases, 7 which hold the case law of this country down to 1887, but every library can have control of these cases by having the one series of Digests by which they are covered, The United States Digest. 'Knowledge is of two kinds,' said Dr. johnson, 'we know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information upon it.' The general principles of the law all good lawyers know, but beyond that their knowledge is limited almost entirely to the know- ing where to find information. To our profession, therefore, di- gests are of the utmost importance, for they bring under one view, and show at a glance, a variety of case law that otherwise would require weeks and months to come at. 'F 'l' it We know of no one more valuable than the United States Digest. ln it are brought together, and arranged for ready reference, all the vast mass of adjudication that has been made by the courts of this country. -- Afbtlllil' Law funrmzf. The United States Digest has been continued from 1887, with- out break or omission, by The American Di gest. This is a full, current digest of all reported cases from all Amer- ican courts, Qbased on their two exponents, the official reports and the National Reporter System,p made in a scientific manner by lawyers thoroughly trained in this pcculiar work, and issued with all modern improvements by the largest law publishing house in the United States. The U. S. Digest, regular edition, 33 volumes, is sold for SIOOQ subscription edition, fss volumes bound in I7 books,3 3580. The American Digest, 1887 to 1893, 7 vols., 58 a volume.

Treating of the Legal linaetmnnts in reference to the insane, of insanity in general, of the various forms of insanit and of the diagnosis of insanity ill 1'el:lti0ll to civil :lllll l'I'i lllillillyllctti. The phenomena of insanity in its various forms, the effect of mental disease on the power ofthe mind, the psychological relations of mental disease, are all set forth with clcarness. The ezipneity and incapacity for the lll3lllllg'Clll0llt of afthirs is clearly and strongly dwelt upon. The duties of medical witnesses, the legal relations of illCbl'i2li0S and the citation of cases are all carefully considered.

A year ago, The N K Tribune announced that in the four years of trial, of new experiment, discussion of great national topics, and observation of the effects of Democratic supremacy before the country. The Tribune would lead in the presenta- tion of the Republican view. The friends of the splendid record of the Republican party were asked to aid the final triumph of Republican principles by seeing that the people read the Republican side of the story. Evidently, the friends of the party have responded. Not only does the Daigf and Sufzflay Tribune have a great constituency, which clings to that paper through thick and thin, but The Ifffeehbf Tribune has the largest circulation of any weekly of its class in the United States, and challenges the country to prove to the contrary. It printed never less than 153,000 a week during the past year, and has printed 170,000 right along for a long period. The Tribune has gained by making its paper almost a States- man's Manual and a most admirable one. It takes the deep- est interest in public questions. Roswell G. Horr's articles are especially valuable. Mr. Horr came out ahead in his great debate with Senator Stewart of Nevada on the Silver question in The Tribune. He always states the Republican view with frankness, points out the probable consequences of a change in the tariff and silver policy of the country, and evades no issue and conceals no fact bearing upon the subjects discussed His thorough treatment of fundamental principles will aid every reader to a better understanding of profound and im- portant issues. Friendly to the old soldiers, devoting much space to Agri- culture, and printing superb and absolutely unequalled Market Reports, editorially able and entertaining, The Zribune is a great paper and worthy a place in every home. It illustrates the news of the day profusely. Thousands of Democrats take it for its articles on public affairs and its purity, decency and freedom from smut. The Tribune stands like a rock against the reactionary policies of the Democratic party. Every Republican should have it. An illustrated Pre- mium. catalogue and specimen copies are sent free to appli- cants. This year, The Tribune includes a valuable historical picture in its List,- painted expressly on the order of that paper.
