...first set Wrenn chose the serve, while Tallant and Lee had the sun on their backs. The first two games went to Lockett and Wrenn, Tallant playing often into the net. The third game went to Tallant and Lee through placing by Tallant and good back-hand strokes by Lee. Tallant and Lee won the forth and fifth, while the sixth and seventh went to Lockett and Wrenn, all four games being very poor. Locket won the eighth game by some brilliant strokes, lobbing well. Tallant and Lee then took a brace and won the next four games by good...
...weekly service at Appleton Chapel last evening was conducted by the Rev. Theodore G. Williams of New York.

But still the people are not entirely satisfied with the republicans. Ever since they have held power they have been instituting changes in all the departments of Frencs life. The people are getting tired of these changes but the only...
Sander's Theatre was filled to its utmost last evening on the occasion of a lecture by Sir Edwin Arnold who chose as his subject, "The Upanishad." On being introduced by President Eliot Mr. Arnold said that he had little hope of doing justice to his subject but could not resist the opportunity of saying something about India. The word Upanishad is probably as unfamiliar to you all as to Alexander when he invaded India nearly two thousand years ago. On this occasion he sent a message to one of the native princes ordering him to come with gold...
