...remarkable fast time, considering the smallness of the track. In the mile walk, Messrs. Bemis and Lord, although walking very fast and in very good times, were unable to overcome their heavy handicaps sufficiently to gain a place. Mr. Bemis had the gratification of beating his old rival, Ware, of Columbia, however. During the evening, Myers ran an exhibition 440 in 56 2-3, and Geary, ex-champion of England, ran an exhibition mile in 4-58 1-2. In spite of the almost unfair handicapping against them Harvard's delegates made a most creditable struggle, and the college ought...

MILE WALK.The entries for this event were seven in number, but before two laps had been walked, all but three had either fallen out or been disqualified.

Ware's time was 7m. 27 3-5s. Bemis made...

...work of the students themselves, while, perhaps, not as excellent, was yet quite as interesting. Some of the plaques and of the painted china ware were very fascinating and exceedingly well executed. Much of the work in the Art School department was in the line more of studies than of paintings with any prominent meaning. The visitor was amused at seeing in almost every third or fourth picture an old skull with high cheek bones; and, when the model itself was found in an out-of-the-way corner, it was like coming upon an old friend. The sculpture...
