...followed by the middle-weight boxing, for which there were only two entries: Mr. F. G. Curtis, Harvard, '90, and Mr. Clarke from the B. Y. C. A. The first round opened with cautious sparring.

Twenty-six members attended the meeting of the St. Faul's Society in 17 Grays last evening. Rev. Reuben Kidner of St. Andrew's Church on Chamber street read a short service and part of the first chapter of the Gospel by John. He showed good reason why young men should engage in active church work and appealed to those before him. The Boys' Clubs offer an opportunity of most interesting and satisfactory work. The Sunday Schools, too, offer work that will tax the intelligence of even the brightest young men. The clergy need the help of many more laymen...
