' The itinerary of the Yale glee, banjo and mandolin clubs for the coming trip was announced last night, and it will be seen that the trip this year will be much shorter than that of last year, when the three clubs journeyed across the continent under the direction of Ralph Hugo Sehneeloch of New Ha ven.

December 29, leave Philadelphia at 8:24 a. m., ar rive in Jersey City at 6:4a a, m, At that point the club will disband. Bishop of Metz in the actual presence of the German emperor. The previous occupants of the See of Metz since the German conquest have performed this significant formality before the local representative of German authority, and there was a "disposition not to make too much noise about a matter which was notoriously disagreeable to prelates born of the race and Imbued with traditions of the Lorralners of the French period. With the death of Mgr. Francois Louis Fleck, the last Bishop, two years ago, the German government resolved to change all that sort of qua-sl-neutrality, and to insist that the crozier of Metz should ba as much at the disposition of the new German pa triotism as any pli'kel-haube of the military garrison. The circumstance that the vacancy since Mgr. Fleck's de cease endured two full years is already an eloquent indication of the delicacy of the questions involved and of the resolution of the. Emperor William to carry out against the old pro-French sympathies and resentments his max im, "Sic volo, sic jubeo." Mgr. Fleck had been the Vicar-General, and afterward the coadjutor, with right of succession to the famous Mgr. Dupont des Loges, who had been actu ally bishop at the time of the annexa tion, and continued for sixteen years aftedward to rule the diocese, with the unbroken confidence of his French flock, and with the very highest respect of the German masters. So great was the esteem in which Mgr. Dupont des Lo ges was held by the German authori ties, that even a high German decora tion was conferred upon him, which he accepted out of deference to the donor, but which he refrained from wearing out of unbroken attachment to the past. The mourning of Lorraine for its lost French nationality was most impres sively represented in the person of the venerated prelate, whose. conduct to the conquerors was so irreproachable, but whose I passionate devotion to, fair France was a constant and overpower ing deterrent for all waverers who might be tempted to give the new sys tem an adherence of the heart and not of the lips only. The annual service for the dead In the cathedral of Metz for the French soldier of the defence during the siege was always a function which stirred Lorraine to the very depths, ana the stirring was not to the profit of triumphant Germany. Mgr. Fleck, the friend and successor of Mgr. Dupont dea Loges, was a leas Im pressive personality, but there was as little doubt about the direction of his sympathies. After thirteen years in the See of Metz he followed his predecessor to the grave, and the Emperor William at once caused It to be made known at Rome that the line of French-minded bishops must come to an end and had came to an end. In truth, the Emperor William had been In no way responsi ble for the successor of Mgr. Dupont des Loges, as at that time ho was still standing on the steps of the Imperial throne, ' As might be sarmlsed from the long duration of the struggle, the conflict with the Roman court was stubborn and marked by vicissitudes of fortune; but the emperor's resolution prevailed, though with a modification which modi- fled very little. The favorite of Berlin for the succession of. the Metz diocese was a Mgr. Zorn Von.riulach, a scion of the great Alsatian house which delight ed the conquerors, and drove the con quered to fury, by .openly , accepting, and not only accepting but welcoming, the advent of the German power. Lor raine, which is French In race, and not merely, like Alsace,, in language and sentiment, instructed its mandatories at home that at all risks a Zorn von Bu- lach would receive no allegiance on the scriptural throne of Lorraine's capital. For nearly two years the Kaiser Insist ed with all the vehemence of his impet unus nature, while the Lorralners showed an obstinacy beyond Intlmlda tion or persuasion, At length the em peror William said: "One thing must be. There must be no more French bishops in Metz. For the rest I care less." Forbidden to choose a French man, pern ; 'ted to, reject the alterna tive of a born German from beyond the old frontier. At y rate, such a one would not give the exnmplo of a sue cessful turncoat. The choice of Rome and the consent of the emperor then easily agreed upon the nomination of Mgr. Benzler, Lord Abbot of the Bene dictlne monastery of Marlrt Laaeh, "who cannot speak the French lan guage." At least, such Is the official version. As the Benedictines are a learned body, with a gift for languages, It Is possible that Mgr. Benzler may be able to conciliate the Lorralners, after a few months of private lessons or oth erwise, by displaying a sufficient com prehension of the popular tongue. But one fact stands out for the reflection of Frenchman and French sympathizer; the line of the French Bishops of Metz Is at an end, and a German-speak ing successor of Bishop Dupont des Lo ges will conduct on purely ecclesiasti cal principles the next requiem for the dead of the lost cause. Pall Mall Ga zette. METZ'S NEW GERMAN BISHOP. Another Step in Kaiser Wllhelm's Struggle to Teutonlze Lorraine and Alsace. The solemn taking of the oath of al legiance by the new Bishop of Metz in the presence of the Emperor William Is an event which has impressed, as It was Intended to impress, the French, who still interest themselves In the fate of their lost provinces, with a very grim sense of the progress of German ization In Alsace-Lorraine. Fof the first time since the annexation this ceremony has been exacted from, 4 I CHINESE" STATE LOTTERIES. The "Sin Wan Pao" o.ttacks the sr tailed State Lottery, which is announc ed as beginning to sell tickets already In Peking. It says that It Is a degrace to China. It is as If the throne were leading the whole nation Into the prac tice of gambling, and the whole land will become one vast gambling hell. The writer takes for granted that Sir Robert Hart sanctioned the Idea. When foreign lands are abolishing lotteries, Chlno, takes them up. They are driven out of the Shanghai foreign settlement, but the Chinese government Is tickled with the idea that by the delightfully simple plan the indemnities will be paid. The whole scheme is disgraceful.. Lot teries nre subversive of regular busl jiooo TViry enrich a 'few a t the loss of the many. How foolish to look to such a source for revenue, when there are countless mines undeveloped, and end less waste tends ready to be reclaimed. The worst of it is that the government already runs several lotteries, and there are frequent nttempts at legalfzlr.g oth ers for famine or flood relief. The Shanghai Mercury.
