FRENCH PLAY.
French Students Will Give Their Annual Play next Wednesday Night.
The play annually given by students in the department of French will be presented this year on the evening of May 4th, at 8 p. m., in the hall of the Eldridge House. The piece chosen is the well-known "Voyage de M. Perrichon," Comedie en quatre Actes, par MM. Labiche et Martin. Although the story of M. Perrichon is well known, being so frequently read in the class room yet for the benefit of those unfamiliar with French a brief summary may be useful.
M. Perrichon, retired carriage maker of Paris, is about to start on a journey into Switzerland accompanied by his wife and daughter Henriette. At the station they meet, one after the other, two young men Armand Desroches and Daniel Savary, both suitors for the hand of Henriette. The lovers, chancing upon each other a few minutes after in the station, decide to take tickets and follow the Perrichon family, and to settle their mutual rivalry as soon as possible.
In the second act the whole party is resting at an inn close by Mont Blane. Wild cries are heard and Perrichon appears carried in the arms of his family and of Armand who has just rescued him from a crevasse. Daniel not discouraged by Armand's unexpected advantage, decides upon another line of action and, inviting Perrichon upon another excursion he falls into a hole himself and permits Perrichon to rescue him thus tickling the latter's vanity. Both suitors now press their claims for the hand of Henriette but the family is divided, the mother and daughter preterring Armand, while Perrichon holds out for Daniel, the only man, whom as he says, he has ever saved.
Upon their return to Paris the creatty Daniel writes up Perrichon exploits in a newspaper and urges the old gentleman to permit him to have a picture painted depicting the thrilling rescue upon the Alps. The simple Armand, on the other hand, hurts his own chances by interfering in an affair of honor in which Perrichon is involved because of a careless criticism which he has made upon the Commandant while they are all together in the Alps. Daniel is thus about to win his suit because of Perrichon's egoism and weakness for him when the father overhears a conversation between the two suitors in when Daniel ridiculizes the carriage maker's vanity. Calling the two together the old gentleman says:
The following is the east of characters:
Perrichon...M. Faragher
Majorin...M. Cooper
Le Commandant...M. Stelter
Armand Desroches...M. Orr
Daniel Savary...M. Lapham

As heretofore, the performance will be quite gratuitous, and while everybody interested is invited to attend, it is especially hoped that the active students in French will take this opportunity of expressing by their presence, an appreciation of the efforts of their classmates in so considerable an undertaking.
"I want to give you, my dear Daniel, a bit of advice; don't talk so freely when uncertain of your surroundings." To Armand he says, "My dear boy here is my dahgter, take her and be happy.

Field Goal to Count Only Four Points —Quarter-back Run from Any Point in Field.
Perrichon...M. Klingberg
Madame Perrichon...
The National Committee upon Football Rules has finished its session at Philadelphia. A number of changes have been made to take effect next season.
CHANGES IN FOOT BALL RULES.
First a goal from field will hereafter count only four points, instead of five.
Six men must be in the line at all times.
If seven men are in the line, the first man who receives the ball from the snapper back may run with it providing he goes outside his own tackle's position.
The losing team may have the choice of kickoff or the wind, but not a choice of both.
A team losing twenty yards by penalty shall not be given first down.
These changes will do away with the checker board field between the two twenty-five yard lines as the officials will not be required to decide whether the quarterback goes five yards outside center in running with the ball.
These changes are a sort of a compromise between the adherents to the mass play style and those favoring an open running game. It is said the changes made are essentially the ones proposed by Coach Yost.
