The New York Nation gives a very accurate description of the excavations and the famous Dr. Curtins of Berlin has written a very complimentary review in a German newspaper.

Carter, however, is wanted in his old position. There is little doubt that Wilcox will be the bow oar again this year. Capt. A. L. Cowles of the '86 crew, and Capt.
