NEWS FROM OTHER COLLEGES, HARVARD. Brown took her second game from Harvard last Wednesday, May 5, at Cambridge, by a score of 4 to 0. The first game was played at Providence on April 27 and resulted 8 to 2 in Brown’s favor. In Wednesday‘s game the Har- yard team played an extremely listless and weak game, the only redeeming feature being the pitching of Paine, which merited much better support than was given. [In the last 8 innings he struck out eight men and allowed but two hits. In spite of their inabil- ity to hit Paine, the Brown men played a sharp, aggressive game. Their field- ing was remarkably clean and sure, and at the bat they made the most of every chance to score. PRINCETON. It is reported that a prominent and generous Princeton alumnus has re- cently communicated with the Execu- tive Committee of the University Ath- letic Association inquiring if it would be of any advantage to the football players to be able to row during the Spring. If such was the case he ex- pressed his willingness to present the Association with several shells and to start a movement for raising a. fund to build a larger lake near the canal. As the matter is generally understood the idea is not solely for the development of the football men, but eventually to turn out a Princeton crew. On Wednesday Princeton defeated Lehigh 11 to 2, in a very loose and slow game. The home team did well with the bat in securing fourteen hits, while their opponents made but six . Lehigh was especially weak at first base and made costly errors throughout the field. R. Shepardson, 1900, who was acci- dentally shot while trying to hold off his boat from the dock with the butt end of his gun on Saturday, May 8, died from the effects of his wound the following day. COLUMBIA. Columbia’s crew should surely re- ceive the suport of all patriotic Amer- icans. The men will row in a shell of American design, built by an American workman, rigged according to to Amer- ican ideas, and propelled by oars of an YALE ALUMNI WEEKLY American pattern. And an American coach, a graduate of Columbia, will teach his pupils a stroke, American in all of its features—Columbia Spectator. The anual play of the Skull and Keys Society of the University of California was recently given at Oakland. This society is confined to the last two years of the course, and draws its members from members of the various four-year societies. oo Changes in N, Y¥. Athictic Club. The council of the University Athlet- ic Club has recently made an amend- ment in the constitution whereby grad- uates of less than four years’ standing are enabled to postpone ‘the payment of their entrance fees. This amendment, is, in substance, as follows: The young graduate need not pay an initiation fee during his first mem- bership year, but merely his dues for the year. These are $25 for the first half and six months later $25 more if he is a resident’ member; but $12.50 each half year, if he is a non-resident member; for his second year he pays his anual dues and $10 of hig initiation fee; the third year the anual dues and $15 of his iniation fee, and for his fourth year he pays $25. This plan allows him - join the Club at an initial outlay of 25. The Club has arranged to move into its new quarters May 15. The building secured is known as the “Dr. Loomis House” at 19 West 34th Street, oppo- site the new Waldorf. The house is built on a fifty-foot lot and has three exposures. A. stable in the rear has been converted into a gymnasium and five courts. The rooms on the fourth and fifth floors of the Club’s new building, about fifteen in all, have been turned into bedrooms, some of which will be rented to resident members yearly at a very reasonable price, while others will be used for transients. On this account the above mentioned rule for young graduates will be greatly appreciated. Socially the Club is organized on much the same principles as a Junior University Club ,and its social side has had a rapid development for several years past in this direction. In fact the Governing Board has secured the char- ter of the Junior University Club, and for the future it will be still further developed along similar lines. Why should an Educated Man be Handicapped ? <a One certainly is if he goes into business of any kind without knowing what is likely to be required of him. Those who know what is Best in Academic Education can appreciate most keenly the best PRACTICAL EDUCATION. Education in the minor details of any business may be obtained, it is true, by experience. But don’t be educated in this way unless you must. IT’S EXPENSIVE. Employers charge dearly (in reduced wages) for what they teach. The long wait for a fair salary means more than the small outlay and short time required for thorough training in Eastman Business College, POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y., THE BEST TRAINING SCHOOL OF THE LAND.

X-ODE is a product of electricity. It forms on asbestos while being electrically treated in a solution. This asbestos is put up in a glass vial. When the cork of the vial is removed and the air comes in contact with the asbestos, it emits from the inhaler a soothing 7 pce substance, which will penetrate any part of the body. When inhaled through the nose or mouth, it penetrates every nook and crevice of the mucuous surfaces, kills the germ that causes the disease, and gives the tissues | a healthy condition, thus effecting a permanent cure. Itis unlike snuff, drugs or medicine. X-Ode penetrates parts that it would be impossible for drugs or medicines to do. Catarrh, Asthma, Hay Fever, Coughs, Head- ache, Bronchitis, LaGrippe, etc., yield to its influ- ence with marvelous rapidity. This inhaler lasts from one to three years. Trial size inhaler, x15 cents; large size inhaler, $1.00, All druggists or by : The X-ODE CO., 19 Union Square, New York City. ‘‘No, boys; I have not been burning the midnight oil to get all that material for my address.
