The October number of the Harvard University Bulletin opens with the official records of the corporation in which all appointments and gifts of the University are recorded. The latter vary in importance from Mr. Henry L. Higginson's "Soldier's Field" to the receipt from an anonymous giver of $5 for the use of the college, which was "gratefully accepted." The generosity of the various benefactors of Harvard is evident in the numerous gifts to the Herbarium, to the Draper Memorial fund at the Observatory, to the Library etc. Other gifts include $4,300 to fit up a psychological laboratory and purchase apparatus, of which $3,000 are given by Mr. William A. Slater. Hon. David A. Wells gives $300 to be used by the Political Economy department in such a way as Professor Taussig may suggest.
There follows a list of accessions to the Library up to October 15, including nearly all the recently published books and pamphlets that are received as well as the more extensive and important works of earlier date.
A bibliography of Beaumont and Fletcher is concluded and the number closes with extracts from the records of the Overseers and the University Necrology compiled by Mr. W. H. Tillinghast.
