...EDWARD ATKINSON delivered a very interesting address on "Capital and Labor" before the Finance Club on Friday evening last. In spite of the Semi-annuals a large number of undergraduates were present, besides several members of the Faculty. The Finance Club have reason to be satisfied with the success of their first lecture, and their future ones will be looked forward to with much interest...
...only two out of a thousand men at your University! Why, at Eton or Harrow or any school here, I am sure there would have been ten times that number, at least half of whom would have beaten that time.

The times made in the bicycle race were very poor, one two-mile heat being...
