...Chemical Laboratory will be begun very soon. The building, which is to be two stories high besides the basement, and entirely fire proof, will be situated on Nassau street. It is to contain two lecture rooms, two laboratories, and private rooms and laboratories for assistants; also a room for a mineral collection and a reading room. Besides these there will be a laboratory for assaying, another for chemical physics, and a third for advanced work and special research. The School of Science is at present so overcrowded that the relief that the new laboratory will afford, by granting ample accommodations...
Outing for March contains some interesting matter, although many of the articles savor too much of the statistical. "Fishing and Hunting in the Northwest" is a description of the charming lakes of northern Minnesota which are yearly becoming more popular among the lovers of fine sport who here find their fill of the best fishing and hunting in the country. A. Austin contributes "Theory and Practice of Boxing" He gives a list of all the technical points of this sport, and sets forth pretty plainly the principles on which one should learn this art; his ideas are sound and practical...

They contain a mint of information, and show the many-sidedness of Mr. Story's intellect; he is as much at home with the Greek drama as with the English poet, with history as with philosophy, with mesmerism as with criticism. He quotes frequently and aptly from well known authors from...
...hearty co-operation of the members of the club. The proposed building will be on much the same plan as the club house at Wellington. It will be 20 x 12 with a platform eight feet wide extending across the front. The building will be substantially built and will contain room for lockers which will be put in later. The advantages of such a house on the Allston marshes, will be apparent to every one, for not only is the house a great improvement on that at Watertown, but also it is so near the college grounds that men will...
