...queue of applicants for tickets to the Greek Play was formed on Sunday afternoon. At six o'clock five men were already in their places at the door of Sever's. A special policeman, who vigorously enforced the law against loafers, secured one of the first places...

With the utmost difficulty he was quieted sufficiently to give a coherent account of what he had seen. Finally, accompanied by our special reporter and one of the editorial board of the Echo (the college daily) he returned to the scene of the blood-curdling tragedy. A thorough investigation of the two bodies revealed the presence upon each of tickets for lectures to be given under the auspices respectively of the Philosophical...
