...organ-grinder within these classic precincts, in less cultured yards he is sure of an enthusiastic and appreciative audience who drink in the charms of music and monkey with open mouths. Put him in front of a bay-window, with a couple of babies looking out in the seventh heaven of ecstasy, and a nurse to take off his hat to, and to lavish his most winning smile upon, and it will be hard to find a more contented being than Signor Smitherini. He knows that he is inspiring two or three little souls with perfect bliss, and is himself...

WITH this number we close the seventh volume of the Crimson. The paper has had all the success that its founders could have reasonably asked for it, and for this the present editors thank the subscribers. At the beginning of the next volume we intend, in common with the Advocate, to make a slight change in our financial policy.

This has caused the business editor much trouble, and has wasted time which could as well...

Brown did not score in this half of the inning, nor did they get another run until the seventh, while Harvard scored two runs in the fifth, three in the sixth, and two in the seventh. In the seventh inning Brown scored one, the man being brought in on a balk by Ernst.
