Tlie question under discussion at

binations of Cnpital Are the Result of
Present Industrial Conditions." Af
ter discussion by tlio regular debaters

B. D. Sllllman.
Was a Delegate In 1836.
Benjamin D. Sllllman, who has the
distinction of being the oldest living
graduate 'of Yale, last week celebrated
the ninety-fifth an
niversary of his
birth at his coun
try home in Iong
Island. Mr. Sllll
man is truly a gen
tleman of the
school whose ar
chaic mannerisms
and courtliness al
most persuade one
that he just
ntntinnrt Ollt from
the pages of one of AustlnDobson's
ballads. He takes but a passing in
terest in current politics, which is eas
ily condoned in a man who has been
a dolcgato to national conventions as
long ngo ns 183C. He has boon a trus
tee of Greenwood cemetery during all
the time the population of that ne
cropolis has grown from zoro to up
ward of 300,000, He once had an in
terview with Aaron Burr, was presi
dent of Yale Alumni association for
twenty years, voted in convention for
tho nomination of the first President
Hnwlson, nnd ran for congress In
1812. Theso nro some of tho things
which distinguish Mr. SllUmun prob
ably from all other living men. Dur
ing his active career Mr. Silliman was
n practicing lawyer.

Tliey Knew the Trick.
He said he did not know how tt
play poker scientifically, but his
friends persuaded him into the game.
He played with varying success until
a fat jackpot showed up.
As the novice awkwardly fingered
his cards he asked:
"Are four cards with Just one spot
on each one of 'em worth anything?'
At this juncture It would be the us
ual thing to remark that all of the
other players threw down their hands
and let the novice take the pot with
out further trouble. But candor com
pels the statement that these par
ticular poker players read the comic
papers. With great glee they raised
the novice out of his boots and com
pelled him to lay down his hand.
The novice held a pair df trays, a
seven spot, a jack and the "cuter."
No man can succeed theso days un
less he keeps up with the newspaper
humorists. Even tho vaudeville ar
tists must do It Omaha World Herald.

A largo Qaeen.
The ascension to tho throne of Italy
of the now king brings into promi
nence his consort, who will be known
us Quoon Holene. In one sense she
is mated to tho king and In another
sho is not. Like most of his country
men, he is small of stature, while sho,
like hor people, tho Montenegrins, is
very largo. Tho Incongruity appears
when they stand togothor, -which Is not
often. Most of thoir pictures aro tak
en with hor sitting and him standing.
When they ride togothor he sits upon
cushions, which make him look equal
to hor In height. Sho is the daughter
of Prlnco Nicholas of Montenegro, tho
little mountain principality on the
othor side of tho Adriatic sea. Sho can
shoot and lido as woll as any of hor
athletic countrymen.
