...century of business. Beginning in unpretentious fashion in 1882 with small quarters in one of the College buildings it has steadily increased its volume of business until during the past fiscal year its total sales have approximated the sum of $300,000 and have given the Society claim to rank as one of the largest mercantile establishments in Cambridge. Any member of Harvard University, of Radcliffe College, or of the Episcopal Theological School is entitled to become a participating member of the Society and thus to obtain an annual dividend on practically all purchases made during the year...

Captain Dodge, when in condition, is a sprinter of the first rank and should materially weaken Yale's otherwise well-grounded hopes in the dashes.

While Harvard is not generally considered to be in the first rank, it may well be that the team has latent possibilities, and we confidently expect that Mr. Lathrop's untiring efforts will produce creditable results this afternoon...
...Division of the Supreme Court of New York. Since his admittance to the bar in 1875, he has conducted many important cases, and has often written on legal subjects. In 1890 he was appointed judge-advocate of the second brigade of the New York State National Guard, with the rank of major. Judge Gaynor has taken an active part in New York politics, and has achieved a national reputation for his work in breaking up rings within the Democratic party in that state.
