...desultory essay, I have been seeking to find a place to insert a portion of a dream I had a few nights ago. It may be wearisome, but I am bent on making it public. "The prophet that bath a dream let him tell it," says Jeremiah. You, my kind but tired reader, I advise to stop at the end of this sentence. For I warn you,- there are no angels, or robbers, or Frenchmen's calculus problems, or earthquakes to recommend my dream to you. It is a very commonplace bit of allegory. For you who are listening...
...estimate of crew expenses published this morning, is the first of its kind which has ever been made, and is an outcome of the inquiries recently instituted by this paper. Its object is to place the financial affairs of our most important and costly athletic organization before the students, that they may see where it stands, and what it expects to do with regard to money matters.

The sparring shown at the meeting was very good, though at times of too savage a kind to meet the approbation of the ladies. The chief interest of the meeting centered in the tug-of-war between the seniors and juniors, which is described at full length in another column. The summary of the events follows...
...gratifying to observe that the Yale students, in recently organizing their Co-operative society, have followed very closely the constitution adopted by our own society. As our own society was the pioneer institution of its kind among the colleges, it is but natural that other colleges, in following our example, should establish their societies on a similar basis. In the lapse of several years, however, one might expect that flaws could be found or improvements suggested in the constitution of the Harvard Co-operative Society. That this does not appear to be the case, at least to any appreciable extent...
