The distribution of seats for the Irving and Dougherty lectures came off yesterday at four o'clock. The Irving tickets were given out in Holden, the Dougherty tickets in Holden and at Sever's. The demand for tickets to both lectures exceeded every one's expectations. 200 tickets for the Irving lecture had been previously given out to members of the faculty, but 800 tickets were set apart for the students.

The college demand, however, was so great that no surplus was left.
