An alumnus of Princeton has presented that college with $2,000, the interest of which is to be paid annually to a member of the junior class, whose father has been a missionary and who himself expects to enter that mercenary profession.

After seeing the theatricals lately given by the Hasty Pudding, one may well question whether the imitative faculty is as exclusively the possession of women as some people would have us believe.

Yale will make a desperate effort to capture the all around championship cup in the Mott Haven games. It has never yet had that pleasure. In putting the shot and throwing the ham mer, in the broad jump, in the 100 yards, and in hurdle, the wearers of the blue and white will probably render a good account of themselves, but parental fears will probably nip their all-around championship aspirations in the bud.
