THE With a Host of Friends Celebrated Washington's Birthday. It was a joyous throng indeed that assembled last night at I. O. O. F. hall, in response to invitations issued by the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. That it was a success, socially and financially, goes without the saying, for, when railroad men "start" anything why that "anything" goes to, if not past the mark. That is what last night's dance and social did. It was the first "annnai" given by the B. of L. E., and, if the crowd of last night had been much larger the X. S. R. sum would have signaled the incoming crowd and. notified them that the house was "blocked." The halls were beautifully decorated with the national colors, hand lamps of different hues, target lamps, palms and cut flowers harmoniously en(e,i ilxto a scene of entrancing beauty. While the young people, and not a few "old boys and girls" tripped the light fantastic succession of waltzs and two-steps with an old fashioned four-corner dance thrown 111 at intervals, another crowd was . . . . , . , figging , ' euchre, pedro and mncii m me reception room. The Minner room was m k whh t,1(, olhcrs iu point of )eautv and the three-course supper Avas all that could be desired by the most exacting. The B. of L. E. and Ladies' auxiliary have cause to be proud of their first effort as public entertainers, for a nicer crowd never assembled in the historic hall. The watch given away by the Ladies' Auxiliary t the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engine rs Ava-? drawn by number 52o, held by Michael Mitchell. The uniform Avas drawn by Mr. Louis Kluter. Mr. Chas. A. Francisco Avas present, by invitation, and gave a fiveminutes' talk upon "Railroading During the Sixties." in his happiest style, and, in the short time at his disposal, gaA-e the "boys" subject matter on which to think and talk for a long time to come. The music, by Runge's full orchestra, was fine, and added greatly to the pleasure of the occasion. Commercial Club Annual Meeting. The regular annual meeting of the Commercial club, for the election of directors, and transaction of other msiness, Avill be held at the club room in "The Westcott," at 7:30 p. m. Tuesday, March 1st.

HARVARDSTUBET'S Figures Collected by Prof. Hollis Are a Revelation. (Illustrated Sporting News.) . It has been a question breeding much argument Avhether the so-called "athletic universities" AAere able to inspire a Avholesome spirit of interest in exercise among the student body, outside the comparatively feAV specialized participants in the rivalries of the institution. The objection had Aveight a few years ago, but that condition is passing because of the great A'ariety of activity in the programme of college sport today. Figures collected by Prof. Hollis, of Harvard, are a reAelation of a condition surpassing the hopes of the advocates of athletic interest for the students as a body. A canvass of the University sIioavs that of 3,000 students questioned, only 200 took part in no athletics or gymnasium Avork alst year. Of 2.!)(i3 students registered, 1,392 played tennis, 540 took their recreation on t'he golf links, football had 450 patrons, aiid baseball about as many, Avhile rowing Avas only a little behind these figures. Hot-key aroused the actiAe interest of 320 students, and lacrosse nearly a hundred. In the gymnasium 1,022 Harvard men Ave re regularly enrolled more than GOO Avere playing handball and nearly 300 chose basketball for theirs. The candidates in training for the various track and field teams numbered 30G. Many students Avere interested in more than one form of sport, thus appearing on the list under seA'eral headings, Avhich explains the fact that 2,183' participated in other sports and exercises not mentioned in detail. In the tabulations are the names f. 1,993 students avIio took part in two or more sports. Two thirds of the students in attendance at Harvard sent replies, and of these less than 10 per cent. Avere not actively in these pastimes. This is a remarkable proof of the growth of tlie sound body built around the sound mind. The ladies of the L. G. E. Avill give a play on Thursday eA-ening, February 25th in K. G. E. hall, entitled "Caught in His Dwn Foil." All cordially invited. Admission 10 cents. Music by I. O. O.

PHILADELPHIA'S Reporting Will Hereafter Be Done Largely by Syndicate. (The Editor and Publisher.) All the Philadelphia daily neAvspapers, morning and eAening, Avith the exception of tAvo, ha'e formed a neAvs "trust." The Public Ledger, North American, Record, Press and German Gazette, of the mornings, and the Bulletin and Telegraph, of the evenings, haA'e pooled issues, so to speak, in the matter of local neAvs. The latter, hereafter, Avill be collected by a syndicate, to be known as the Philadelphia Associated Press (unincorporated), with offices at 911 Walnut street. This organization has not the slightest connection "with the Associated Press. Its head and managerial front is Archibald S. Leekie, who is said to haA-e instituted similar enterprises, A-ith varying degrees of success, in Chicago, Cincinnati and Pittsburg. The business of the neAV local association Avill be the gathering of eery sort of local news, general, court, sporting, society, etc. A staff of about twenty-five men, under a day and night manager, Avill attempt the task. The neAAS will be typeAvritten, manifolded and "slipped" by messengers in a manner similar to that in which "flimsy" is sent out by the telegraphic news association. The serAice began on Feb. 15. In the meantime upAvards of one hundred i-eporters and department editors have been given one Aveek's notice by the several papers in the so-called "trust." There is consternation in local neAAspaper ranks in consequence The Inquirer (morning) and Item (evening) are fhe only tAAo journals outside of the combination, and these have laid plans to "beat" the latter whereer possible. In anticipation of a possible uphill fight, General Manager Leekie has addressed a typewritten letter to the various : city officials, police lieutenants, etc., asking that they "faA-or the association with such matter as they may deem proper for publication." It is said that each neAvspaper in the combine Avill subscribe $75 per week. GRAIN MARKET. Chicago, Feb. 23.
