...even in the case of these degrees the scholarship has depreciated of late. Up to 1887 over one-half of the graduates took degrees with distinction, and in the class of 1884, 61 per cent. of the graduates took such degrees. But of late classes have not shown such brilliant scholarship. The class of '88 graduated 42 per cent. with distinction, '89 graduated but 39 per cent., and '90 graduated 42 per cent. The class of 1884 made the following brilliant record: Out of 195 men 118 took degrees with distinction, 22 of which were summa cum laude, 43 magna...

The defence has been strengthened by the addition of one more full-back, and one, afterwards two, half-backs. The forwards have to play a co-operative game and individual playing is made entirely subordinate to team work...
...Crystal Slipper follows the Soudan at the Boston Theatre and gives promise of great success. The well-known fairy story never had a better presentation, with its beautiful scenery, gorgeous costumes and brilliant transformations. The piece has been slightly changed since its last presentation here, and besides, new features have been added by music and ballet. The principal parts are all well sustained. Miss Ida Mule as Cinderella. is always welcome. The melodrama continues for two weeks...
