Notes from Newburgh. 



The citizens were very obliging and courteous, and the local committee 

 had mapped out a splendid program. 



All the notorieties were there, too numerous to mention. 



The roof garden (without a garden) was the place to be o' nights — ocean 

 breezes direct from the Hudson. 



Many of us were "boarded out " as the Hotel was filled, but none com- 

 plained of the treatment received, except a few who were treated to a 

 " cinder bath " at the United States, and when they paid their bill found 

 they had to pay for it. 



Some of them said they could stop the West Shore trains by simply put- 

 ting their arms out of the windows. 



Nobody dared get loaded down town as it was too much trouble to 

 carry it (the load) up the hill. 



Shade trees are abundant in Newburgh and they are needed too. 



They have a beautiful Masonic Hall, Club House, Post Ofl5ce and other 

 public buildings there. 



The bowling contest was held at the club house, and it is said after 

 " Schnacke" had spent all his money he won a cash register to ring it 

 up in. 



The Alumni was well represented, all the leading lights were there in- 

 cluding Griffin. The College and Faculty was there "very muchly." 

 The German apothecaries came up with pond lilies in their button holes 

 and were dubbed " The Pond lyily Brigade." 



The wholesalers were all in good shape, so was the Press, the latter was 

 very busy. 



Our friends from up the State were all with us in everything, or possibly 

 we were with them. 



Hirseman is the new President and Searles was re-elected to the execu- 

 tive committee. 



We all wanted more Toddy so Todd was unanimously re-elected 

 Secretary. Hooray for Todd, w're with you. 



Geo. Gregorius made the speech of the session when he merely said, 

 " Gentlemen I thank you." 



Richardson did the elegant when he refused to run againt Todd. 



Smither thinks the prerequisite clause will never die and he's right too; 

 — he suggested that all reports have as a final item the prerequisite clause, 

 and they did. 



Whom was the joke on, Diekmau or Holmes, in making a report on the 

 A. Ph. A. ? 



Did anybody find Gies' knife at the Knife Factory ? 



Jersey snubbed New York, but New York treated Jersey white. 



The boat ride to West Point was fine except that some one got wet.
