...have so little appreciation of the never equalled record of last year's nine, of the Mott Haven teams for the last six-years, that, for lack of a little energy to raise the sum of $4.500, we will not support our previous victories? To say nothing of the want in itself of a Grand Stand, which is greatly felt, it would give a boom to athletics which is much needed at present. Our spirit of over confidence is too great. The mere fact that the Mott Haven Cup has been in our gymnasium for the last six years...

When I arrived there, wearied, exhausted and hungry, my slip was returned...
Gratifying as it is to see to how great an extent the library is being used by the students this year in comparison with previous years, yet the disadvantages of a large number of men wanting the same books have not yet been done away with. It ought, therefore, to be in the mind of every man who uses the library, that he is not the only person in existence who is likely to want any particular book. There are very few men who are so thoroughly self-engrossed that they forget this fact; but we have heard of some...
