WILLIAM MERIAM COMAN lintered the Granunar School seven years ago, graduating into the Academy three years later. This event was the occasion of great surprise and rejoicing among his friends and relatives. Since then he has pursued his studies in the Scientific Course, with great alaerity, and the grim determination to catch up with them or die in the attempt. Two years ago he nearly succeeded, and was ohliged to take a three months' vacation on the Colorado river to regain his shattered health, and i'ecuperate his over-strained mental faculties. VVe sincerely hope it will never occur again. This year he has heen amusing him- self trying to huild a hoat. So far the auiiist-mt-fitliias rested entirely with the on-lookers.
