We understand that Guiteau's prospective exhibitor has chartered a car of the U. R. R. Co. He recognizes the refrigerative qualities of these cars. Considers them better than the "preservers" of his own make, in fact.

At the annual dinner of the "Class of '77," Massachusetts Institute of Technology, at Young's Hotel, Wednesday evening, the following officers were elected to serve the ensuing year: President, A. L. Plimpton; vice-president, H. H. Carter; secretary and treasurer, R. A. Hale. Several speeches were made by members of the class.
Now the U. R. R. shaketh in its boots, and feareth that day when the Charles R. R. R. shall blossom forth in all its wealth of accommodations. The student in the early morn cometh from his prayer meeting in the metropolis and chattereth his teeth and shivereth in the refrigerator car. The company forsooth appreciateth the freshness of his victim and desireth that it shall not spoil.
The Cambridge Tribune accounts for the rumor of small-pox as follows: "The small-pox excitement originated on Wendell street, by the hanging out of a scarlet cloth to call in a fishman. This act was sufficient to start the rumor that a student had been taken from the house to a hospital where he was down with the small-pox, and that a young lady in another house on the same street was sick with the same disease. There has not been a case in the city so far as we can learn. Imagination sometimes is very vivid in anticipation."
