When Kitson was - years old, 10
1877. he began work with his brother
in New York on the Aston memorial for
Trinity Church, and during few years
at that he acquired the practical use
and control OF the tools OF the soul ptor's
art that atterward made his great sue
cess possible. In 1882 he entered the
Ecole des Beanx Arts and t.le Ecole des
Arts Decoratifs at Paris, and In 1888 ex-
hibited In the salon his FIST bust from
life. that of his friend, Angelo Schutze,
musician and painter, and In the same
wear produced Amour" tho bust OF
beautiful child. AT the Beeux Arts he
worked in the ateliers OF Dnmont and
Ronnassieux, and at the Arts Decoratlfs
with Mlllet and Gautier.
In 1884 appeared his Music OF the

and which exquisite work. now In the

KItson returned to America and made
a bust Of Mccullough, the actor, from

Mayor Doyle, Of Providence, was mod

Mr.. KItson was then commissioned oy
the RoumanIsn government to execute
a portrait bust Of Carmen sylvia"

work In a studio prepared for him In
the royal palace at Bucharest. The
work was so successful that he was dec

to the freshman class. The faculty ex-
cuses itself on the plea that Budd could
neither read nor write, but the feeling
among the coaches is that this should
not have been allowed to shut him out.
He has killed thirteen men, and his par
entail father was cen nibal. Sufficient
warning was given the faculty as to
Budds' deficiencies In reading and writ
ing, and 1t is strongly asserted that ex-
aminations should have oeen prepared
from which those subjects were ex-
cluded.
The wearers OF the blue are good
deal stirred up by the action Of Brown
in the matter OF Jones and Robinson,
the two famous athletes OF Andover.
Yale claims that these men were kid
mapped and brought to Providence In
the middle OF the night. Each one of
them was handcuffed to one OF the pro-
fessors. l get this story pretty straight.
1t comes from two eminent foot ball
players among the Yale alumni. They
have been on the lookout for Jones and
Robinson all summer, having the title
deeds for several New Haven city lots
concealed about their clothing. They
now claim that Browns representatives.
kept the two athletes in cave among
the Berkshire hills. and they ask with
some warmth whether such conduct is
calculated to advance the cause OF edu-
cation or promote friendly feeling
among the colleges.
Prof. Shelton, the distinguished ply
sioogst, has been engaged to assist In
coaching the Yale eleven. He is point
ing out the weak points in the human

he had begun work earlier In the season
something might have come OF 1t. As
1t is, the eleven has not yet mastered
the subject of simple fractures OF the
collar-bone, and 1t is feared that little
can be done with the vertebrae before
the day or the Harvard game.
Considering all of these disadvantages,
so the Yale coaches tell me, ii is as near
a moral certainty as anything In foot
oall can be that Harvard will win. How
ever, In spirit Of pure devotion to Old
Eli, few Yale men will take any bets
that are offered on the result, If the
odds are satisfactory.
At Harvard things are different. 1t
is easy enough to figure up sure thing
for the eleven. Graves, Coffin, Jersey,
Bers and Tombs OF last years eleven
are In fine form land probably will be
till about fifteen minutes before the
Yale game, when the best OF them will
drop dsad). Great reliance is placed
upon the Deland tricks, which last year
came so near to making the game inter
esting for those who had money up. 1t
will be remembered that the "fying

Harvard and would undoubtedly have

next postmaster. We deem it useless to
name the man, but will say it wont be an
ex-ofiice holder, unless Cleveland was
lesting when be said he would appoint no
one who had held Office under his former
administration. So our friend Jacob will
be frozen ont of it.

He is cordially welcomed by all, and
especially by the ladies, some of whom
made him a very jOvial call sometime
since.
Our friend, DR.. j. r. Fletcher, is very
busy, on the 60 almost day and night.
This is not due to local sickness but to TIE
