FOR EVERY $1,000 OF LIABILITIES THE NEW YORK COLONY. Class Reunions and Other Entertain= ments at the Club, Almost thirty members of Ninety- Seven were present at the first reunion of the class in New York, which was held in one of the private dining-rooms of the Yale Club last Saturday evening. As announced, the meeting was a very informal one, refreshments were served, and the evening was passed in the usual Yale style, in singing, led by -T. Miller, ’97. Before adjourning, it was unanimously decided to hold four or five more Ninety-Seven nights at the Club during the Winter. OTHER ENTERTAINMENTS. Several other events connected with the Club which will occur shortly are as follows: On Saturday the members of the: Class of Ninety-Two in New York will hold a smoker, and the fol- lowing Friday, December toth, will be ~Club Night.” It is hoped “to get a large crowd at the house on this even- ing, and to give’a literary flavor to the early part of the evening. One of the University Faculty will be asked down from New Haven to read a paper or deliver an address. On the tenth also the officers of the University Alumni Fund will hold a dinner at the Club. ADDITIONS TO THE HOUSE.

Charles Scribners’ Sons and Harper Bros. Over one hundred more framed original drawings have been loaned to the Club by these firms, and these are exactly in the line of decoration most desired by the House Committee. This is especially true of the drawings illus- trating the articles on life at Harvard, Yale and Princeton which appeared in Scribners’ Magazine last Spring. The complete set of these, which have until now been at the Harvard Club, has been transferred to the Yale Club, and the pictures are now hung in the main room downstairs, arranged in three groups according to the respective col- leges. The Library Committee report some - further contributions, and the shelves in the reading-room are slowly but surely filling up with Yale books and memorabilia in response to the circular sent out. Perhaps the most interesting of the more recent gifts is a copy of the ge and regulations of Yale College in 1800. : —___+ + —____—_ Glee Club Itinerary.

Complaints have been heard on all sides, of the exorbitant prices charged by the hackmen for services at the time of the Princeton game. With enough carriages to supply the demand, it was an imposition on the part of the livery- men to charge twelve and fifteen dollars for a round trip of three miles. Mr. Murray, who filled the orders of most of the college men, denounced the action of those in his business. He fixed the price with the liverymen at eight dollars, which was a high but not exorbitant price under the circum- stances. At the last moment the charge was raised to ten, then to twelve and even fifteen dollars. The city officials, on hearing the complaints, investigated the case, and, although the injustice of the prices was apparent, they found it would be impossible to take - legal action to prevent it in the future, as the Yale Field is in Orange Township, and hence the distance covered is not entirely under the jurisdiction of the city. Efforts will be made, however, to prevent such an abuse arising next year. 3 —__¢9— = Intercollegiate Tennis Cup.
