Like his uncle, Prince Leopold, he will wear cap and gown only on occasions where they are required by law, and even then he will discard the gold tassel on the cap and silk gown of the cut that distinguishes, or rather used to distinguish, the gentleman-commoner from the nobleman...
...last, after long and impatient waiting, the ever-belated Catalogue has appeared. Few changes are to be seen in this year's issue to distinguish it from other years, save what has previously been explained.

The remainder of the crew pulled the boat to the Union Club float, but there was no one there to assist them in landing, while the heavy sea running threatened to dash them against the float. Another chance was given for some one to distinguish himself, and though each wished to show himself worthy of the crew of '83, Mr. Sherwood settled the matter by jumping over-board, swimming to the float, and assisting his companions to land. As their entrance into the boat-house was entirely unexpected, there was no one there to meet...
