skilled editorship of Rev. Theron
Brown, of Boston, assistant editor of
the Youths’ Companion. It has been
prepared with great care and presents
the story of the life work of these men
for forty years. It is unique in the fact
that it contains accurate pictures of all
but one of the fifty-six living graduates,
besides a goodly number of those who
have deceased. The work of securing
their likenesses has been a huge under-
taking, and its success is due to the

lin of Brooklyn, whose fame.in elocu-
tion and a s an amateur orator is widely

’°95—A story of considerable dimen-
sions has been circulated regarding F.
A. Hinkey. It has reported him as
savior of eight lives from a watery
grave, by opportune arrival in a sail
boat, just as the boat containing these
eight men had capsized. It appeared
to be true that on a certain gay day
last summer eight men capsized in the
Niagara river, owing to overdraught
or overdraughts. They sat cheerfully
on the bottom of their capsized boat
until someone appeared to tow them
ashore. A friend who interviewed Mr.
Hinkey on the subject says that he
reports that there was no danger; that
he saw the whole operation; that he
not only did nothing, but that there
was nothing todo. He simply watched
the steamer tow them ashore. The
WEEKLY, knowing some of Mr. Hink-
ey’s mode of action when he is under
discussion, refuses to vouch for either
version of the story.

Yale Boating Plans.
Mr. Whitney, captain of the Yale
University Crew, on Wednesday de-
nied to a reporter.of the WEEKLY the
statement that arrangements had been
made whereby Mr. Cook would take
charge of the coaching this Fall. As
the WEEKLY goes to press there can be
found no authority for any definite
statement as to the coaching this Fall
and next Spring. Mr. Whitney says
that even the arrangements for the Fall
practice are indefinite.
An order has been given an English
builder for a new shell for Yale. It
will be of cedar, with seats in the cen-
ter, according to the American plan.
It will also have the usual row-locks.
No new barge has been ordered at
Cambridge, reports to the contrary
notwithstanding.
Mr. Whitney has been elected a
member of the Leander Rowing Club.

No Private Sweeps.
A new rule, promulgated at the open-
ing of the academic term, removes all
private sweeps from the Campus. The
rule in regard to sweeps reads as
follows: ‘It is the duty of the sweep
to make the beds, empty the slops,
bring fresh water, and dust the rooms,
daily, and to thoroughly sweep and
clean them weekly. For this service
he is paid by the University and is for-
bidden to ask or receive fees for it
from the occupants of the room.
“He is not paid to do any personal
service, such as blacking boots, brush-
ing clothes, making fires, cleaning or
filling lamps, or doing errands. If
such service is required, special ar-
rangements must be made with him for
it.
“No private sweeps are allowed in
the College buildings.”’

A Bursar for Yale College.
A bursar in the Academic Depart-
ment is one of the new financial ar-
rangements of the year 1897-8. The
plan has long been cherished and will
be put into operation October 1. The
bursar, it is understood, will have the
direct relations with the students in
matters financial, such as the collection
of tuition and rents, and will have that
general superintendence of the care of
the buildings and grounds which was
before exercised by the Treasurer of
the University. This latter regulation
will be effected, as before, through the
services of the College Inspector. The
creation of the office thus relieves the
Treasury Department of a vast amount
of detail, and it is in the direction of a
simpler and more systematic working
of the mechanical affairs of the Acade-
mic plant.
The office of the bursar will be in the
room on the ground floor of Phelps
Hall at the southwest corner of the
gateway.
