WE are indebted for the following facts to the investigations of Drs. Bradford and Cutter: Of 113 Harvard students who had rowed in intercollegiate races up to 1870, 10 were killed in the war, and 2 died of diseases contracted in the service. Of the remaining 101, 1 died of Bright's disease, 5 of consumption, 1 of neuralgia, 1 by suicide, 2 by accident, and 1 from an unknown cause. Of the 87 who were living two years ago, 67 reported themselves in good health, and from the rest no definite answer could be obtained.
THE Yale-Harvard boat-race will be rowed on the Thames River, New London, Conn., Friday, June 27, at 4.30 P. M.
