Another college year has closed.
Fortunately it has passed without any unpleasantness, or college trou
ble. The Senior vacation was sus
pended, the Senior serenade was
sensibly omitted, and the Senior
Crty . passed without trick or mutation. The Juniors, a very sen
sible class, abolished thei? annual hat parade, and enjoyed a class banquet at the National instead, instituting something new, at the same time satisfying the desire of the class "to dp something," and the
only manifestations of class rivalry
or jealously during the closing
weeks of the year were confined to
the harmless Freshmeu and the silly Sophomores. So the year closes
with a good understanding, with a manifest spirit of sympathy and co-operation among Faculty and students.
The exercises of commencement
week, according to the published
program, began Monday, dune o,
from the 5th to the 8th being
occupied by examination of college classes, and the meeting of the Board ef Trustees. All the members of the Board were present, ex
cepting Judge Roache,devoting their
time daring the week, as usual, to
a painstaking discharge of their duty.
The first public exercise was the TAIiEOICIOB T
of the .Hesperian, Phtlomathean and- Athenian literary Societies,
Friday evening, June 9. The
Athenian valedictorian was Mr. A
M. Adams, of jttockviile, lnd., a
member of the Sigma Cbi fratern
ity, subject, "Frederick the Great.'
Mr. Adams is retarded its one of
the solid men of the institution, and
bis oration, thoughtful and well
written, did him credit in sustain
ing-an already well earned reputation. The class respondent .from Athenian was Mr. J. H. Foster, of
Evansville. Miss Ida A. Smell, of
Muncie, lnd., of Kappa Alpha Theta, was Hesperian 'a valedictorian, subject, "For what Good f Senior respondent, Miss Carrie Short, of Yincennes. Mr. R. S. Stevenson,
of Bellefoontaine, Ohio, of fraternity Phi Gamma D-elta, represented
Philomathean, speaking from the subject, "The State and Higher Kd-
for their absence. Yet there was a
good audience in attendance, the chapel being almost well filled, but
not jammed as usual on such occam , rv ar i
8ions,, o. say mat ur. aioss s address was as good as usual is to give
it a very high compliment. He based his remarks upon the following passage from the 8th chapter of
John's Gospel, verses 31 and 32 : "If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed ; and ye
shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." "Freedom, Truth, Knowledge" were the central themes developed, which development is sure to leave a very lasting impression upon the minds
and hearts of his hearers.
THE ADDKE8S BEFORE THE TJKIVERS1TY Y. M. C. A. was delivered in the College Chapel, Sabbath evening, 7:30 p. m., by Pres. J. F. Tuttle, D. D., of Wabash College, Crawfordsville. The churches of the oity suspended their usual evening meetings, and though the evening was threatening, the college chapel was crowded to overflowing to hear this venerable and distinguished educator. Justice cannot be done to such a lecture except by publication in full, and then an appreciative reading. The lecturer
began by stating that forty-four years ago, the able and distinguish
ed first President of this Institution, tr, Wylie, addressed the young men of Wabash College .ut their first commencement ; he bore testimony that the memory of that eloquent address still lingered in the memory of some of the young men who heard it. Whether that debt had ever been paid, Dr. Tuttle could not say ; he would rot presume to pay it unless such debts
were easily paid. The delight of his audience after the delivery of
his lecture of an hour's length, testified that his attempt waseuiBcien t ; his lecture will leave a strong and lasting impress upon ever' attentive mind among the hearers. Dr. Tuttle has been interested in the cause of education for 40 years ; he has been president of Wabash for 20 years. His theme for tbis address was "Man's Debasement and Regeneration." He assumed the debasement, and discussed the how of the regeneration, whether in the way of the philosophy of Emerson by culture, or in the way of the belief of Paul, by Christianity. After the manner of the scholar end philosopher he discussed the relative merits of culture and-Christianity in the uplifting of man. The lecture ranks with the best ever delivered in the chapel. The Y. M. C A. of the Indiana University was founded two years ago ; it has now established itself as a perma
nent institution. It is to be hoped that its growth will be steady, as its influence is sure to be considerable in affecting the moral tone of the
Institution. HIGH SCHOOL COMMEXCBM EST. The graduating exercises of the
Preparatory Department and Bloomington High School began promptly at 8 o'clock Monday
morning, l be class numbers twen
ty-five, seven gentlemen and eighteen ladies. All delivered their orations and essays except one, Mrs.
Meadie Everman, who left for her
home the Saturday previous. The exercises, from first to last, reflected credit upon the class, and the train
ing which they have received. It seemed there were more expressions of satisfaction than usual, after the
exercises, it is hard to discrimin
ate between such a number of good tilings, but it will be conceded that

ADDUES8 BEFORE THE
LITE BABY SOCIETIES. Rev. O. C. McCulloch, of In
dianapolis, delivered the annual address before the Literary Societies,
Monday evening. Ihe audience was not so large as uaual, owing
chiefly to the threatening ram. Any one who is pleased by a lecture of great literary merit, was decidedly unfortunate if he missed the lecture of Mr. McCulloch. The speaker's subject was "The Un
known." a theme suggesting, as ne
showed,a field of unlimited thought.
We have never listened to a speaker so smooth and easy in speech, with such a seeming.y tenacious memory of his reading, so conversant with all literature, as is Mr. McCulloch. ALUMNI BUSINESS MEETING. The Alumni met in their usual business meeting Tuesc'ay morning,
at 10 o'clock. Not a-i many were
present as were last year, but the interest manifested in Alma Mater was much increased. Rev. Andersen M. Wylie, class '55, was elected orator for the Annual Reunion of '83 j Sydney R. Hatfield, class '53,, of Evansville, .Cad., was elected alternate orator. It was decided that in succeeding years the Aluniui would have, on the day preceding Commencement Day, upon the ad

is to attract to their reuuioua
business consultations, more resident and foreign Alumni, where their presence, i uteres! and co-operation are needed ; also to give opportunity to the Alumni to meet each other in a more sociable reunion. To the visiting Alumni hereafter this will be the event of the week. It is hot to be understood that this dinner will do away with the Visitor's Reception to be given on the evening of Commencement Day. Upon invitation, Dr. Moss addressed the Association, upon the needs find prospects of the Institution. The interest manifested led the Association to call an adjourned meeting at 2:30 o'clock in the
afternoon, at which time, on sug

THE CLOSING FESTIVITIES. The Alumni Supper (improperly so called, for it is neither an afi'uii' for the Alumni, nor a supper) closed the exercises of the week. There
were nearly a hundred more present
on this occasion than were expect ed, and preparations for the enter
tainment of so many were not as complete as desired, but the enter
tainment was a success and the evening passed pleasantly in every
respect. It was enjoyment to be

an able argument in favor of higher education by the State, and was
complimented by having his speech published in full in the Indianapo
lis Sentinel of June 12. The class respondent to Philomathean was
Mr. J, L. Stephenson,' of Catnpbellsburg. The exercises ended with credit and satisfaction, and
with the "last sad farewell" the members of '82 as far as their lit
erary societies were concerned, were
sent, may we hope, equipped to the battle of life." THE BACCALATJEEATE.
The day for the Baccalaureate sermon was about as bad, in a
weather point of view, as could well be imagined. It rained steadily
most of the day, and while not raining the dull leaden sky, without a
rift ip the clouds, continualfy

Mellette, G. W. Alford, and Rev. J. L. Piraer. Personal effort and local organization were assured for the ensuing year. THE ADDRESH BEFORE THE ALUMNI was delivered Tuesday evening at 8 o'clock, by Hon. John W. Foster, ex-U. S. Minister to Russia. Though Ihe weather was stormy, the only opportunity of getting to the chapel being ia the intervals between heavy rains, yet the chapel was full, which fact showed the eager desire of the public to hear this distinguished speaker. The subject of the evening was "The Czar and his Peopli;," and no man in America is bettor prepared to speak on the 6ubjcct than Mr. Foster. The geograp'jy and resources
of Russia, the character and work
of its late Czar, assassination, autocratiim, nihilism, banishment, and
Jewish persecution, were some of the topics which the lecturer discussed to the great interest and :ustructinn of his hearers. Tho lecturer showed that his observation aud study had mt.de his residence in Europe's great Absolute Monarchy a source of great benefit. We

COMMENCEMENT NOTES,
R. B, Richardson, Ph. D., Profeissor of Greek for the last two
ytars in the University, will spend his summer in Europe, studying in
Germany. Prof. Richardson has
been elected to the chair of Greek in. Dartmouth college, New Hampshire, an institution which ranks
with the best Universities of the
East. The Board of Trustees of tlie Indiana University will accept his resignation with regret, knowing that in his departure our Uuiversity loses a thorough instructor, universally popular, and a rare linguist. In short, Prof. Richardson is a gentleman and a cultured scholar. His gain, on which we can congratulate him, is a loss to Indiana University. Prof. Amzi Alwater, of depart
ment of Latin, left Bloomington and Latin, will assist Supt. Fuller, last Wednesday for Italy, and some ! an old student of the University, ia other parts of Europe. He will i ucting a Normal in Booneville,
upend the greater part of the sum
Warrick county, this State. He is
a good representative of his college, and will have an influence to bring
students back with bim next tall.

Prof. D. S. Jordan, of the Natural Science chair, is now in Washington, D. C. He will extend his researches and discoveries among tho fishes of our Southern coast, working in the service of the Smithsonian Institute and in the interests of science. Prof. T. A. Wylie, of the chair of Natural Philosophy, and his wife, will spend a portion of his summer in Dakota Ty., with their daughter, Mrs. Mellette. On dii that a bridal party will accompany them. The Prep, class motto in Latin, "New the day is onrs," by mistake was made to read on the program, "Now the day is yours." The Junior Preps, claim that the mistake is only an "honest confession," in view of the disastrous defeat inflicted on the Seniors in the class coutcst a month ago. Cue-half of the graduates of the Bloomington High School are non resideuls of Bloomington. The Valedictory, the first honor of the High School class, was given to Sherman Davis, the only Bloomington boy in the class ; the Salutatory, the second honor,to Miss Olive Batman, of Bedford. On an average, of forty-two grades Mr. Davis was ahead only five-tenths. J. C. Fitch, Albion, Ills., and Jas. Strack, Patriot, Ind., were allowed honorable mention, In the High School class of 25 members, one, Miss Dillon, went through all the grades of the Bloomington public schools.
