The Scientific expedition from the Sheffield Scientific School, under Pro- fessor A. E. Verrill, which recently returned from Bermuda, brought back a very extensive and valuable collection of marine animals for the Peabody Museum. : Thirty large boxes of specimens were shipped and are now being unpacked. The collection includes a very full BA. Passports procured on three days’ notice on application to New Haven Custom House. The finest Govern- ments charts of Cuba, Porto Rico, the Philippine Islands, the West India Islands, and the Atlantic coasts and harbors kept on sale at Government prices. } | 7 series of the corals and gorgonias of the Bermudas, some of them of large size. Several fine specimens of the octopus or ‘devil fish” were secured. They were all caught by members of the party by suddenly grasping them back of the head in the naked hands. The octopus under these conditions make a very lively fight for some time and winds its arms vigorously around the naked arms of the captor in its efforts to get its jaws in a suitable posi- tion to bite, while its suckers cling with such great tenacity to the skin that they leave round red spots. Their capture was considered great sport, especially when they were of ‘large size. The largest obtained was about four feet Meese The series of Shells, Crustacea; and Echinoderms obtained are also large and complete. There are many large and fine species of starfishes and sea- urchins, and several huge species of. Holothurians or “sea-slugs.” Most of the specimens of corals and many other things if interest were ob- tained on the coral reefs,. which rise nearly to the surface in many places. The larger corals were fished up by means of grapples made for the pur- pose. But many of the smaller and more delicate forms were obtained by the students by diving. The expedition was intended partly for the purpose of studying marine zoology on the spot, and partly for the purpose of securing collections for future study. In both these directions it was entirely successful. An effort is now being made by several prominent residents of Bermuda, and by scientific men in this country, to establish at Bermuda a permanent zoological station, with aquaria and other conveniences for scientific work, so that parties going there for study may be able to find suitable labora- tories, books, etc., convenient for their use. It is hoped that other expeditions . will be made from Yale in future years: The trip takes only fifty hours from New York. The students who took part in the expedition were Mr. C. M. Cooke, Jr. (Yale, ’97); Wm. E. Parker, and Clar- ence Si Verrill a> ~~ The Senior Prom. The Senior promenade was held Mon- day evening in Alumni Hall. In front of the hall were set up two large tents, the floors of which were covered with crash and in which the refreshments were served. The hall was simply but tastefully trimmed, and the two tents were lighetd by means of Japanese lan- terns. The raised platform at the back of the hall was bordered with palms and. was occupied by the patronesses and committee. The grand march was started at about 9.30 o'clock, and twenty-four regular and five extra dances were given. About three hun- dred people were present.- The com- mittee in charge consisted of F. T. Van Buren, Chairman; E. C. Perkins, Floor Manager; A. D. Baldwin, H. E. Butler, J. J. Hazen, J. O. Rodgers, E. Sawyer, F, W. Sheehan and H. B. Wilcox. y~< ~~ Please hurry to this office every scrap of war news about Yale men which comes your way. Put in every detail you can. Please: send this news as fast as it comes to you.
