Harvard in a Fever Heat.
From The Boston AID yertisgr.


Harvard is at fever heat. Two cir.
cunlstances combine to cause deem in.
djgnatlon in the SUDDEN. breast and g.
large amount OF free CONVEX sation in the
student atmosphere It is true that the
two causes are dissimilar, Dut The re-
spectlve classes Or students affected are
equally wrought up hy them. Toe first
cause relates to football and the second
to ink. The football grievance is. Of
course, the result Of sudden anxiety on
the part Of the athletic com coi.tee of the
faculty, to save the members OF the eleg-
en- IRON being bitter and pounded by
enc 2lO-pound freshman in the Yale
rush-llne. Not that the members Of the
Harvari team have any strong indiyld-
t,al yearning for death, but that, collect
lively, they dread lie cry that will 90 UP
from Yale, that Harvard has ''crawled.'
ihe decision OF the athletic committee
IS wise and humane one, and is astlng~
ing rebuke to naughty Yale.
AS Ter the other cause Of excitement,
1t relates solely to the law school build
lng.cThe students OF law care nothing
for football, but they idolize their s,yIo-
graphic pens, which they buy OF cooper
alive society at ninety nine and a half
per cent. discount. Under ra.e made
out OF reverence for the spics and
span new edlhce, no ink is allowed 10
pc brought. into any part OF tie lew
school building, unless It is II patent
sanity lnkstand. Men having stylo~
graphic pens do no need inkstands,
and they have violated the rule ant
kept ink in bottles i'll their private lock
ers. Ihe present excitement Is oWlng
TO the charge by owners Of ink thar
their lockers have been opened oy dq'
pllcate keys and their INK connscated.
Youth is rash and heaostrong, and cool
thought would doubtless convince the
law students that clean floor Is Of far
more consequence than the comfort and.
convenience Of q hundred men.
Heavy Drinking.
