SOPHOMORE CLASS DINNER.

The sophomore class dinner was held last evening at the Quincy House in Boston, there being about eighty members of the class present. Mr. J. Codman, president of the class, presided, and R. L. McCook acted as toastmaster, W. H. Baldwin as chorister, and G. R. Nutter as poet. The first toast was that of the class of '85, which was responded to by M. C. Hobbs, the orator of the occasion.

Mr. Nutter's poem, a modernized "Inferno," was the hit of the evening. Mr. Hobb's oration was also well received. The various toasts were interspersed with songs, solos being given by Messrs. Carroll, Baldwin, Chanler, W. W. Winslow, White, Webster and others, besides numerous choruses, in which the class joined with a will. The following toasts were set.
