Two rooms of the University Club house Cor. York and Chapel Streets were considerably damaged by a fire which broke out at 5 o’clock, Tuesday morn- ing, October 3. The fire started from an open grate in the grill room on the second floor. The tiling in the bed of the grate became overheated by the burning logs and the heat penetrated to the timbers, which, however, smouldered for several hours before breaking into flame. A waiter of the Club, John Neubert, was awakened by the smoke and immediately turned in analarm. Be- fore the engines arrived the flames had broken through the ceiling into the lounging room on the southeast corner of the first floor, and although the fire- men only used chemicals, the entire ceil- ing, which is finished in polished oak, was ruined by fire and axe, and the mahogany paneling of the side walls was also badly damaged. It was found necessary to rip away the entire floor- ing of the grill room. The club house was remodeled and redecorated through- out last Spring, and the damage done is on that account still more unfortunate. Although none of the furnishings were seriously hurt by the fire, it is estimated that the financial loss will amount «to nearly $700. The building and contents are insured. > = Rs. se ae Class Resolutions. The following resolutions were drawn up last evening by a committee from the Class of 1901, relative to the death of Harry Smith Osborn: “Whereas, Almighty God, in His in- finite wisdom and unsearchable purpose of working all things together for good, has taken away from our companion- ship Harry Smith Osborn; who, by his genial and unassuming manner, had so endeared himself to us all that we deeply mourn his loss. Be it ; “Resolved, That we, his classmates, in token of our high esteem and affec- tion for him, extend to his bereaved family our heartfelt sympathy, and that we wear a badge of mourning for a period of thirty days; and further be it “Resolved, That a copy of these reso- lutions be presented to his family and printed in the College paper. “For the Class 6f 1901, 3 “Wittarp D, Howe, “SHERMAN L, Coy, “SAMUEL U.

Reid, Sept. 30,28 greater nttmber than has ever before reported for Fall practice. The Fresh- -man class sent over 50 men, who will try for places. The outlook for base- ball at Harvard is of the best. Captain Higginson has just made a call on the University for sufficient ma- terial to carry out his plans for the Fall regatta. He has arranged for two sets of races, the first of which will be be- tween the class crews of the Weld and Newell clubs, the last of October, and the second between the _ respective graded crews of each club shortly be- fore Thanksgiving. This is done to give the rowing a good start before Winter shuts in. —_—_—_~+___— Freshman Receptions. The annual reception given to the members of the Academic Freshman class by the Yale Y. M. C.
