Dress Rehearsal of the Latin Play.

The performance of the Latin Play last night, though in name only a rehearsal, was practically as complete as that which will be given this evening. The chief difference was in the audience. Tonight all the leading colleges and universities will be represented: the seats at the dress rehearsal were in large part given up to instructors and students from secondary schools. This was because the classical department desired to show Latin in the character of a living language to the schools which prepare for college as well as to colleges themselves. Tickets were accordingly sent to one hundred and fifty schools. As there were but seven hundred and fifty seats to be disposed of, each school could receive only a very few, enough, however, to provide for representatives from the instructors in classics and occasionally from the best classical students.
