...account of the threatening weather, an audience somewhat smaller than usual gathered in Appleton Chapel last evening to hear the address of Rev. Washington Gladden. He chose his text from the 2d chapter of Titus, 11th and 12th verses; "For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously and godly, in the present...

...must welcome this great improvement with the heartiest approval. It is only natural that Harvard could not for a great while longer show her face in the academic world while she had some 290,000 volumes stored away, inaccessible to everybody, as soon as the sun chose...

...chapel pulpit was occupied last evening by Dr. Newman Smyth, D. D., of New Haven. He chose his text from John 8:44; "He stood not in the light because there was no light in him."

Princeton won the toss and chose the east goal, having the wind in her favor. Corbin dribbles to Beecher, who gains ten yards before being tackled. He loses the ball, however, and Ames regains the ten yards lost. A wild pass to Savage gives Yale fifteen yards, and ineffectual tries by Price and Ames force Princeton to her ten-yard line. Savage makes a magnificent punt to Yale's forty-yard line. Watkinson kicks, Ames returns the kick and Cook falls on the ball. Cowan takes the ball, five yards and Ames carries it to Yale's five yard line...
