SKEPTICISM IN NEW YORK.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

NEW YORK CITY,

April 23, 1886.EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON. - Dear Sir I do not believe the annexed clipping from the CRIMSON of April 22. "Mr. Curtis of the Spirit of the Times will act as judge of walking in the Intercollegiate games," The reasons for my skepticism are as follows: 1, I have not been asked; 2, I should refuse if asked, 3, I never acted as judge in walking; 4, I never shall; 5, I shall not be at "Mott Haven" May 20.

Yours incredulously,

WM. B. CURTIS.[The italics are our own.]
