There on the historic spot where many an orator has done his impromptu in premeditated and malicious execlso of speech, the draw ing for the cap will take place. The premiums announced several days ago as going with tho tickets have been withdrawn, as Insufficient inquiry has been made for them. However, it lias been decided that tho man winning the cap will take all those holding tickets up to Rector's for refreshments. It Is quite likely that the cap will be passed around through the crowd for Inspection, and then submitted .to the committee of the Freshmen who will O. K. It as to gonuineness. All are free to come out and watch proceed ings, and special arrangements have been made to take -care of the crowd. Tho placards which tho advertising manager of t lie soon to appear Senior I aw book have placed so prominently before the public, have been removed by those In charge ot tho dook as ioo lurid and praising the book on terms somewhat too extravagant.
