...made by some of the contestants. When we take into consideration the number of men in the University, it does not seem too sanguine to expect that at least five good men should compete in each of the more important sports. The weather was, unfortunately, bad; but, as the spring is likely to be more favorable, we trust that more men will train, and that there may be no walk-overs...

...between the Britannias and the Harvards. The first game played by Harvard against the Canadians was in 1874, when the McGill team, under Mr. David Rodger's captaincy, was beaten by us in Boston.

BOSTON THEATRE. - The "Ideal Pinafore" is still running to large houses. Miss Adelaide Phillips is very successful in the part of Buttercup, and sings the music with good effect. Mr. Fessenden, as Ralph Rackstraw, does not come up to Tom Karl, who took the part last spring, but nevertheless fills it satisfactorily. On the whole, it is, without doubt, the best representation of "Pinafore" that has been given in America. Bartley Campbell's new play of "My Partner," which has been very successful in New York, will shortly be produced. Next Monday evening, "Fatinitza" will be revived...
