...view of the length of time consumed in traveling back and forth between Boston and Cambridge, the captain of the university crew has arranged a temporary float at the Charles River boat-house, to be used until the severity of winter forces the crew to the harbor for open water. We cannot commend too highly the energy of the boat club in its endeavors to further the interests of the crew, and we can only urge the college at large firmly to support these efforts. Every possible means should be put at the disposal of the crew to make their...
...captain of the football eleven, in adopting the plan of training the candidates for next year's team, which is described in another column, has made a departure from the methods that have prevailed heretofore, which, it seems to us, must bring forth good results next fall.

The hall made singing difficult on account of its poor acoustics. Mr. Longworth was not able to accompany the party farther than Cincinnati. His place...
...last bulletin of the Royal Astronomical Society contains the first of a promised series of letters by Professor Holden, formerly of Harvard University, but now director of the observatory of the University of California. These Jetters will set forth at length the observations which have been made by means of the Lick telescope. A comparison of the results of the observations taken by Prof. Holden by means of the Lick telescope, and the results obtained by means of the best English and American telescopes shows that the Lick lens is immeasurably superior to any of its predecessors. Formerly there...
