earnest and untiring workers in

the Faculty, and richly deserves

the confidence that is reposed in him by teachers, parents and

pupils. Had Prof. Woodburn been

as aspiring as he is able, he might

long ago have been occupying some

one of the positions in which th ere is less labor and more pay. He de

serves recognition at the hands of

those who have the power to promole him.

On Thursday afternoon a

week, Johnson Mueroy was working in his cornfield, (near Ellettsville) when be noticed a stranger in his pasture, some seventy yards

distant, catching a horse which belonged to his son. He thought it

was some one to whom his son had

loaned the horse, but afterwards

became uneasy and went to the house and inquired of the family if they knew anything about it.

They did not, and he then went to Ellettsville and inquired of his

son, who was at work iu the quar

ry, if he had loaned his horse. He had not. The thief rode through

Ellettsville. and within fifty yards

of where young Mucroy was at

work. Pursuit was given, and although he had but an hour's start, neither man nor horse has since been heard from.

THE PROGRESS GIVES ITS

READERS THE BEST PUBLISHED ACCOUNT OF ALL 'PROCEEDINGS.

We have been enjoying a feast

of good things. Every commencement is the largest and most inter

esting in the history of the Uni

versity. This one was especially

so. At least so we have heard

many people remark. Oar little Athens has been humming with the

gayety and business of social and

commencement life. Bloomington

has witnessed fifly-four commencements. Many of us have gone to

all the commencements so far back

that the mind of tbe Bloomington man runneth not to the contrary. All these seasons have been greatly alike, with their excitements and

hurry, with their handsome women and rich apparel, their banquets and social clubs, their literary pleas

ures which make one feel glad that he lives in Bloomington, their sen

ior eloquence to amuse, their lilera-

tort to instruct and impress, their

alumni addresses to bore, and with all to give satiety and fatigue.

But who would be without com

mencement ? Bloomington with

out this festive season would be

worse than Shakespeare's master play without his Hamlet. The week just closed, though it may have tired some of us who went to everything, has entertained and in

structed, and become a week memorable in the history of commence

ments. It may be that nearness

lends enchantment, but it seems

to us that this commencement, all in all, outdoes anything we have ever had.

It is noticeable and worthy of

remark that every intelligent stran

ger who visits Indiana University

is astonished at the high order of

commencement exercises, and the nature of the work the University is doing. All the Indiana University needs is an extensive acquaintance. With those who already have that honor and pleasure, she is recognized as an institution of the first rank. Men of eminence, and informntion on the relative merits of colleges, as they become acquainted with the University of our State, invariably express a most favorable opinion of what they see, and their surprise that the advantages here offered are not more widely known and appreciated. They are becoming known, and the time is fast coming when the University of Indiana will be in name

as it is in fact, easily the best institution of learning in the State, and as good as is in the country.

As a rule, daring Commencement week, tbe weather is exasper-

atingly hot. The Commencement

week just closed, however, could not have been improved upon, had the weather been made to order. TH 8CIEXTI7I0 AS80CIATLO opened the exercises of the week, on Thursday evening, June 7. The increased interest in the Nat

ural Science Department under

Prof. Jordan, has been very noticeable. The Scientific Society was organized during the past year, under his direction, fur the purpose

of encouraging and aiding students

to make original and thorough research in various scientific fields,

What the society has done was partly shown in this exhibition. It was not an entertainment for show or parade, but rather an indication of the solid results attained by serious and earnest students in their scientific books and laboratories. THE VALEDICTORY EXERCISES of the three Societies, occurred on

Friday night. J. R. Beckett, Washington. Ind., delivered an oration, on behalf of Pbilo. Society, on the subject of "Selfish Environments."

The Senior Philos responded in the

person of R. S. Stevenson.1 Hes

perian was represented, and ably

represented, by Fannie Swain, of Pendleton, who read with grace and case, in pleasant and unaffected tone, an essay on "Lucretia Mott." Miss Kate Snyder responded. W. J. Bryan, of Bloomington, delivered the valedictory oration for Athenian. Mr. Bryan is both a writer

and speaker. This oration, as we

heard many remark, was one yf the best college orations we have ever heard. His subject was "Equality," or, as it might properly be stated, "The Man"1 the importance of the individual. The truth of his remarks on aristocracy was recognized and approved by his fashionable audience, and hereafter, as heretofore, will be ignored. But we all like to hear such orations. A. M. Adams responded on behalf of the Senior members of Athenian. REUNION op 1878. The Progress regards the reunion exercises of '78, on Saturday evening, as the best college exercise we ever listened to. Class, reunions are now an established thing. The class of '76 has the honor and distinction of having started the precedent, in

this institution. The reunion of

that class, two years ago, 5a remembered by many as the chief feature of the week, and it was an occasion the members of the class will never forget. But '78 has surpassed '76, both in the number in attendance, aud in the merit of her pub

lic performance. The members of

almost every class think they will have a reunion, but when 'tbe work, and worry, and trouble come, they fail. Only those who undertake to "work up" such a reunion', know how much labor it costs '78 profitited by the experience of '76, and if every class can give the public and themselves the pleasure which '78 has, tbe reunion is worth the labor. It is due to Miss Lucy

Maxwell's energy, devotion to her

class, unwearying and patient labor, in endless plans and correspondence, that tbe reunion proved so great a success. In the reunion of '76 sixteen out of twenty-four participated j '78 returned eighteen out of twenty-three. They have

been out five years, and return to renew the most pleasant memories oi life, to pledge anew tbeir devotion to the institution which nourished them. We give the names of the class who were present, with

their occupations : J. Addison Arnold. Columbus, Ind.,

editor; E. Albert Bryan, Vincennos,

Ind., teacher ; Henry A. Burtt, Jcfferson-

ville, Ind., lawyer; Daio J. Orittenberger,

inatanapoiis, Deputy secretary ot state ; Anna O. Donnis. Bloomineton, Ind..

teachor; Flora Dillon, Bloomington, Ind. ; David H. Ellison, Loesburg, Ind., teacher , James L. Floyd, Indianapolis, entry

clerk; B Simpson Lowe, Bedford, Ind., lawyer; Sophia Luzadder, Shouts, Ind., teacher; Iiouiso .Maxwell, Bloomington, Ind.; Louis Munson, Chicago, Ills., lawfcr; Leonidas D. Rogers, Bloomington, nd., teacher ; Quincy Short, Springvillo, Ind., minister; Franklin P. Smith, Orleans, Ind., teacher; Frederick Trendley, Union City, Ind., teacher; Ellen Ward, Winchester, Ind.; Jeptlia D. WhUenand, Des Moines, la., lawyer.

The reunion exercises occurred in tbe college chapel, Saturday ev

ening, with the following program :

Welcome address, President Moss ; Re

sponse, Lon. D. Rogers, Bloomington ;

.Morituri bulutaraus, Anna O. Dennis, Bloomington: Class Oration. The Indi

vidual a Means, not an End, Louis Mun

son, Chicago; Class. Poem, J. Addison Arnold, Columbus; Class History, E. Albert Bryan, Vincennes. Mr. Rogers presided with dignity and ease ; bis response to President Moss was well worded and delivered. No description or com

ment can give any appreciation of

the Oration and History. Mr. Munsoo's oration was a model, almost, in its flow of language and ease of delivery. Though bordering on the atheistic in morals, it was decidedly unique and original in style and thought, bright and forceful in expression, and highly creditable to the young man who conceived and delivered it. The opening passages so well accorded with the sympathy of the audieoce, who knew of what be spoke, and were so neatly said, that we consider ourselves fortunate in being allowed to print them : "It has been five years since the members of t lis class were together. This is the place we last met. From this rostrum then, the coming five years appeared rich and promising. Now they seem weather-stained. Our bones have shared the fate

of the fat kine of Pharaoh's dream the lean years of reality have devoured the fat years of hope and have not fattened thereon. The time has at least been entertainiug.

Some have married the human

transfiguration from a nothing to a husband all of us have adventured, and had the exhilaration attending new attempts. On coming back here wo discover changes. This building has lost some of its

dimensions. The town of Bloom

ington isn't so conspicuous on the map of this hemisphere as it was. Tbe university has been invaded by children apparently, for we distinctly remember how mature were the students when we were here indeed these identical bearded and staid men before me were of them (not mentioning the ladies of course). The.faculty we find isn't immortal. The figures that marshal themselves in a sombre dado on the back of this rostrum every morning are not the same that we are accustomed to. Our commencement was signalized by the resignation of our Professor in Greek, Prof. Ballantine. Years of service had earned for him a rest. This community is still blessed with the example of his life. His daily walk is a definition of piety. An aged man reposing on the fruits of the labors of his maturity is the greatest monarch on the only royal couch on earth. Our Professor of Geology also is no longer here. He should have continued to reside at the seat of the University, to enhance our reverence for the place. I have always felt that so long as Dr. Owen lived I could be assured there was one perfect gentleman on earth. Wherever ho be may his deserts reward him we can wish him no more. We have also missed the voice whose greeting would have been the warmest we would have heard, and the hand whose grasp would have been the heartiest we have not felt. I need not say I refer to our Professor of German Prof. Boisen. I can't reconcile myself to his absence. I feel absurd as the feeling is if he has gone, how comes it that the University remaius. What a man be was! How transparent in his frankness and simplicity, how clean from a taint of worldliness, how responsive in his sympathy! He had the band of an enchanter to transfigure and glorify everything he touched. Ho blazes with a perennial enthusiasm, and at him every one could kindle bis torch. Happy are those students who come uuder his tuition Tho Class History, by Prof. E. A. Bryan of Vincenues University, surpassed any effort of the kind the Progress has ever heard. Though it was the last performance of the eveuing, and forty-five minutes

long, it was listened to with eager attention throughout. Its combination of wit, humor and pathos, was an entertainment in itself. We give a few mutilated passages, deprived ot the effect given by a good reader, and of the interest added by tbe surroundings : The first name on the roll is that of Joseph Addison Arnold of Columbus, Ind. You remember Arnold as a roan of medium height, fair complexion, with a perennial smile of no ordinary dimensions playing around his mouth, which gave evidence of a genial and happy disposition, not unlitce that of his illustrious namesake. Be is editor and publisher of the Columbus Daily and Weekly Democrat, and employs in his office thirteen hands brides the devil. How a Democratic newspaper can get along with but one of those last named personages, is beyond my comprehension. Burtt is the only classmate who has gone to JeSiirsonville. Ho is a brilliant young lawyer there. Ho presents a wife and son for admission into tbe class. Sir. Crittenberger is the only member

who nas won lugu political Honors. Already ho is nigh to the throne. He may be addressed at Indianapolis as Deputy Sec. of State.

B. S. Lowe, of Bedford, is a lawven

and has won both cases and fees. Once

on a trip through Iowa and Nebraska, he

passed through a full-grown cyclone, and

wnue men, nogs, norses ana nomas were flyinc through the air. this eentleman

professes to have spent the time praying, and though he was a little rusty in that department of literature, yet he says that

it was a very proutabie occasion. Mr. Munson, the bright "young attorney, from Chicago, says that while be is unmarried, ho has as, firm a conviction of the felicities of married life, and as intense a desire to bo married, and as keen an outlook for an available wife, as any man in America. We commend to him the belles of tbe Athons of Indiana. Our worthy class president, Mr. Leonidas Rogers was barely beaten for the nomination for the last Legislature by our worthy Representative. Mr. F. Spraker, Supt. of tho west side schools, Logansport, has endured the bitterest of sorrows. He has stood at tbe side of tbe grave of a revered father. Tho oarth closed over his fair bride two weeks after marriage. Soon tho death of a beloved sister opens the unhealed wounds. Time alone can bring suroeaso of sorrow. Treudlcy's life, from being a solo became a duett ; it has since doubled and become a quartette though the younger voices are not perfectly attuned to the older, especially at night. One year he was principal of tho Ellettsville schools. The past four years ho has been the able Supt. of the schools of Union City.

Short, Ellison, Smith, Arnold, Treudloy, Spraker, Burtt, McCiaskcy and Bryan, nine, all men, are married. Nine children, 3 boys, 6 girls, have been born to members of the class. Of tho twentythree names of commencement day ttol

one uas disappeared from mo roll. THE BACCALAUREATE.

A finer audience never assembles

in Bloomington, aud seldom any where, than the one which listened to Dr. Moss, Sabbath afternoon.

The text of the farewell discourse was the passage in Matthew, 13th

chap. 12th verse : "For whosoever

hath, to him shall be given, and he

shall have more abundance; but

whosoever hath not, from him shall

be taken away even that he hath." It was apparent that Dr. Moss was

laboring under great difficulty, and

that it was necessary for him to

husbaud his streugth, as the sick

ness of the previous several days

had all but prostrated him. His

sermon, as usual, was strong in thought, and lasting in its impres

sions. IVV PLANTING. On Monday afternoon, at 4 p.m.

the class of '78 met in front of the

old College building, to plant a

class ivy. In answer to a request for the necessary space for planting,

J udge Lanta of the Board of Trus

tees, gave consent. After a class

song, Miss Lucy Maxwell placed in

the ground by the wall tho "dainty

plant," the ivy green, and Mr.Fred

crick Truedley, Supt. of the public schools of Union City, made tbe

ivy speech, and the exercises closed with the following song : NOW AS THE SHADOWS FALL, Now, as the shadows fail Around this sacred shrine, Benoath this gray old wall We plant our little vine. As grows tho ivy there Toward tho silent sky, The letters, graven fair, Shall tell of days gone by. O, may tho hand of Timo Carve on eternal stono Our names, 'neatu flowors shall climb Up to the Master's throne. Soft voices of tho Past, Chi mo, swont as vesper bell ; The night is falling fast, Dear Brothers, fare yo well. PREPARATORY COMMENCEMENT.

The forenoon of Monday was occupied with the graduating exer

cises of our Preparatory School.

Twenty-four young meu and women received certificates of admis

sion to the Freshman class, the ma jority of whom will attend the Uni

versitv next year. The exercises

were considerably below tbe average of our previous High School

Commeucetueuts. and indicated a

serious decline in the attention given to the work. Masy of the essays and orations were up to the average; it is seldom the Progress refers to an effort from Preparatory

being below the average, as in this

case. The orations of Mr. Rabb,

Mr. Morris, and G. W. Harris,

were highly creditable, and they deserve special mentiou. But no one did so surpassingly well as to

make it a pleasure to speak of them,

while two or three let the perform

ance down miserably. Misses Clara

Sluss and Lula Phillips, owing to sickness at their homes, were not able to be present. Mr. Allen was excused from speaking. The Prep, class of '83 has been, in many respects, a memorable one, and can

look with pride upon its record in

school, and can claim more than average ability in its membership. The Juniors, the class of '84, their successful rivals this year in the contest, did a neat thing in presenting to their Seniors the floral horseshoe which hung beneath their

motto. It expressed the deep good

will which the classes entertain for i each other, and no one will be hap

pier than the Juniors, in the futyre

success of the Prep, graduates of '83. Following are the names and

SOCIAL.

Bloomington life has been ttemiug with social pleasure for a week. The doings of our social clubs, the movements of society people, attract attention, and excite as much interest as the College proceedings. It goes for the saying that social' life in Bloomington, for its refinement, tone, and genuine pleasure, is unexcelled, west or east. There may be more of society other places, but there is no better. For the gay and festive youug ladies and gentlemen, tbe past week has been one of business and excitement. SIGMA CHI BANQUET. A large number of active and Alumni Sigma Chiswere entertained in royal style, by Mr. and Mrs, H. C. Duncan, at their residence on west 5th street, Monday night, June 11th. Although the weather was unfavorable, it seemed not hi the least to detract from the enjoyment of the evening. An elegant supper was served, in the style that always characterizes the efforts of the genial host and hostess. Great

credit is due and much gratitude

owing to Mr. and Mrs. Duncan, tor their enthusiasm and zeal in the cause of the fraternity, as well as their earnest desire-to entertain and render enjoyable these occasions. THE MAXWELL RECEPTION. On Thursday evening, June 7th, Dr. and Mrs. J. D Maxwell gave a handsome reception to their son, Dr. Allison Maxwell, and bride (nee Routh) of Indianapolis. Everybody in Bloomington knows Ally Maxwell. He is not only one of Bloomington'a "most popular" boys but one of the best aud most favorably known in the Capital .City where he has lived for several years, and one of whose fair daughters he so lately espoused. A look at the pleasant face of the bride re. minds one of the couplet : "The man has by hia own experience tried How much the wife dearer than the bride." The reception.Thursday evening, was a perfect thing, in its way. About one hundred and fifty invited guests were present at the Maxwell suburban residence, to express their good wishes for the happiness of the -young couple. The latchstring was out, the doors thrown open, the grounds illuminated, everybody glad, their palates delighted, and joy was uncoufiued till the small hours of morning. STEW ART-WYLIE WEDDING. At the residence of Capt. Mack Wylio, two miles south of the city, on tbe same evening, occurred the wedding of Rev. T. B. Stewart, Class '80, Pastor of the 2nd U. P. Church, San Francisco, Cal., to Miss Sallie Wylie, one of Monroe county's best girls. The ceremony, performed by Rev. W. P. McNary, was witnessed by a few intimate friends. The bride was dressed becomingly in cream colored nun's veiling, trimmed profusely with Spanish lace. A number of useful and valuable presents were received. A rich supper was enjoyed by the company. Mr. and Mrs. Stewart left last Friday for his old home in Rush county, and will start in July,to the new home on the Pacific Coast, leaving belaud, in their old
