 The Woolsey battalion will probably go to Hartford and Waterbury two evenings of this week.
 MT. Seaver, who has charge of the Gym. athletics, has notice in the News to the eff feet that a class will be formed for instruc- ton in physical training. The instruction which is given by MT.

 The class races come off this afternoon on the harbor. The start will be at 2 o'clock It is to be regretted that only two crews will vie for the class championship, but '95 has always been noted for her unvictorious crew. as only one race has been won during the course-that over '84 in freshman year, The Shelf freshmen and '89 will have a race of their own. This seems unfair, that the class championship should be given when the seniors have no crew entered and the fresh men TOW with some other crew

Gen. Frank U. SlOaG:
 Dear Sir-I address yon chairman of the delegation appointed by the Republicans of New Haven to represent them at the Re- publican congressional convention held at Middletown on the 9th inst, and called to- gether 0 second time because of the 'declina- ton of Mir. Pine, the nominee of that con vention As my name was before the pre- vious convention as apparently a contestant for the nomination, and thinking possibly it might be brought before this, ask you to place me in the proper light before the Re publicans of the district
 Let me say had I the slightest knowledge that Mir. Pine or any other man was 8 candi- date should not have allowed my name be- fore the convention. If there be a disposi- tion on the part of anyone at this time to nominate me, say to the gentlemen who have and would honor me feel under obligations for their proffered compliment, but under no circumstance would accept the nomination. My reasons for this are that hold the cleo tion of President and State officers above any personal honor that might come to me as 8 candidate for Congress. Were my election as sured would not accept the nomination, with the possibility of it's leaving ripple of un- pleasantness upon the harmony of the party I am Republican because that party saved the Union, and since that day has been the progressive party of the nation. Not for of flee, but for those principles that have be- CO1l16 ulSIOElC udN0 l c1AtOA AAJ5CAA hA1AA oAAC Republican party.
 Whoever may be selected by the eonven- tion to become our standard bearer, he will receive my most hearty applause.
 With the earnest hope that the nominee may become member of the first Congress under the administration of James G. Blaine as President of the United States,
 I remain most sincerely yours,
 s. E. MERwTN, JR.
 MT. Fox concluded by pointing out that it was now the duty of the convention to nom mate man who could poll the full vote of
