Col. Thomas Wentworth Higginson spoke before the Graduate Club at the Colonial Club House last evening. Col. Higginson's address was upon "Literary Society in London and Paris in 1878" and took the form of an extremely interesting series of anecdotes of men and women of letters. In his fascinating way Col. Higginson told of Froude, Carlyle, Darwin, Ellis, Browning, Tennyson, Victor Hugo and Du Maurier; briefly describing the characteristics of the men and giving some account of his meeting with them.

The club has under consideration a reception to the wives of its married members and to the members of the graduate clubs of Radcliffe and Wellesley to be held in the Faculty room after the April recess.
