THE JOURNAL OF PHARMACOLOGY. 265 



Dr. Pfingsten spoke for the German Apothecaries Association and Press, interspers- 

 ing his remarks with several witty stories. 



Wm. Kerr, '95, spoke for what he seemed to think was the only class amounting to 

 anything, but, friend Kerr, there are others. Tuthill, 'S8, held his end of the Alma 

 Mater up in good shape, as well as did the only "Tanny," '93; but Tanny forgot a 

 great deal that he had wanted to say. The writer saw his speech the night before but 

 it seems Tanny couldn't remember it at all, he forgot all the red-fire, fire-crackers, 

 brimstone and other war-like parts thereof. 



Thomas J. Keenan gave us a good send-off, he usually does, you know. He had en- 

 joyed himself so much that he has already promised to be with us next year. 



Herold, our own Hieronymus, told us all he knew and some things he didn't know 

 about the ladies ; he said that since his wedding he had not had very much time to 

 follow up the subject. 



James Rogers and Aug. Hall discussed the commercial side of the dinner. 



Bjorkwall, the Registrar, made his maiden speech and it was all right, too. He 

 promises to bring all the graduates into the Alumni Association, no initiation fee. 

 Now, so he says, it's an easy matter but he wants the boys to help him. He promised 

 to give all hands a good time at the Alumni Ball, and as he will be the floor manager, 

 he ought to know what he's promising. At any rate, don't fail to come to the ball, 

 January 25, 1899, Madison Square Garden. 



As the chairman had not called on Dr. Gies, there was a popular uprising and a 

 general request for Dr. Gies. In his response he told us how not to be " done " by 

 our friends, not to hesitate crying help! if need be, and wound up by telling an en- 

 tirely new and, of course, original story. 



At 2 a. m. the party dissembled and all seemed to have spent a most pleasant and 

 enjoyable evening. Regrets were received from Professors Chandler, Elliott and 

 Jelliffe, Messrs. Kemp, Massey, Bigelow and Royce. Long live the memories of the 

 dinner of '98. C. S. E. 



alumni Socials. 



Two of these most pleasant gatherings have now come and gone, and the pleasant 

 recollections still linger in our minds. The decided success which marks each and 

 every one of these socials has induced the Association to purchase a piano to be used 

 for the dances and entertainments. The third Wednesday of each month is set aside, 

 and you will surely be pleased when you see the galaxy of fair women which graces 

 the occasions. The participants are too numerous to mention here, and then again 

 you should be present and see them yourself. 



Do not make an engagement for the night of January 25th, 1899, before consulting 

 the Alumni Ball Committee. They can advise you where to go on that night. 



'93 and Before. 



Boyce has just left us know that he has just recovered from an attack of yellow fever 

 at the Marine Barracks, Key West, Fla. 



John Metzger, '78, is located in Providence, R. I. He will be glad to see any of the 

 boys if stranded in Newport. 



Hardenburgh is with Harrington, Brooklyn. 



Friedlander is the only fellow who ever got the best of the " Bookmakers." 



'90 Stuerner is sorry baseball has quit— snow prevents the games — but how about 

 the alleys, Stuerner? 



Chas. Pignol wants to buy a slice of the Klondike— he has sold his Brooklyn store. 



Geo. E. Schneider, '82, has picked out a good lbcation, near the Home of the In- 

 curables. No fear of his patients getting well.
