...captain of the Mott Haven team calling for candidates for the team. He urged especially that the number of men to put the shot and throw the hammer ought to be large, since most of those who contested in this event last summer have left college. We hope this appeal will be answered by every man who feels that he has any ability in field or track athletics.

The case will be brought in October, 1889. The ground of the appeal is stated to be that the State of New York holds in trust the proceeds upon which the university was founded, and which were given by the nation to the state. If this is the case, the university is not absolute owner of the property, but merely a beneficiary, and the charter limit of $3, 000, 000 will...
