Dinner of the Harvard Club of New York.

About two hundred enthusiastic Harvard graduates sat down to a gorgeous banquet at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York on Monday night. The hall was hung with the crimson banner of the club, with the coat of arms, and the date of the founding of the club, 1865.

President Edmund Wetmore presided, with Dr. A. P. Peabody and Rev. Francis Peabody on either side. Among the guests present were Chauncey M. Depew, who spoke for Yale; Rev. Dr Henry J. Vandyke of Princeton and Frederic R. Condert of Columbia. Henry Villard, who recently gave $25,000 to the Law School, was also present. The dinner was in every way a most delightful one, and broke up in the "wee sma' hours" of Tuesday morning.
