THE Vassar Miscellany has a stirring and eloquent editorial against banged hair !
AN article in the Brunonian complains of the poor treatment of the Brown Freshman Nine at Yale. It seems that although the Yale men undertook to pay the expenses of advertising for the Brown Nine, when it came to the point they positively refused to do so; that they made the men pay for their own dinner; invited them to a supper consisting of a keg of beer, and left them to find their own way to the railroad station at night. In addition to all this, the Nine were robbed by sneak-thieves; so that, altogether, it is not remarkable that they feel aggrieved.

"The wanton lapwing gets himself another crest," the &OEstrus has also appeared in new attire. It is now a good-looking paper of nine columns; a size which prevents the publication of those prize essays and orations which appear to be so plentiful at the University of California. We notice, too, a more important change in the tone of the items.
IN an article on Vassar, a writer in the Yale Courant modestly remarks : "The average Vassarite is healthy-looking, moderately pretty, intellectual, lively, in for a good time, and, to be brief, very like ourselves." We are glad to learn that the average Yale man is pretty, intellectual, and lively.
"A HIGH and venerable officer of the College, who has its good order at heart, took occasion to blame a certain policeman whose beat is near the Campus, because he did not prevent sundry little escapades of the students, whereupon the insulted Majesty-of-the-Law braced himself up and replied, 'Now look a'here; if you know my business better than I do, you just take my club and travel. I'll resign.' Notwithstanding this generous offer, the Corporation is not represented on the police force." - Brunonian.
Freedom of action does not seem to be allowed at Rutgers, to judge from the Targum's indignation at a "certain secret society" whose members have all refused to renew their subscriptions to that estimable contemporary of ours. Their action is called "almost incredible," "a boyish trick," "an exceedingly selfish action," and various other pretty names. The reason of the withdrawal, according to the Targum, is "disappointment at the non-election of a friend." We warn all our subscribers, that as soon as one of them withdraws, we shall take a leaf out of the Targum's book.
