r-Wm Cleveland w said to be strong Bunded. She has a brother who nseaibks her somewhat in that respect. President Cleveland's coarse m far appears to be equally surprising to the Republicans and exasperating to ths Democrats. The President, while anxieu to tarn the Bepabliean rascals oat, proposes to go slow enough to avoid so far as possible turning the Democrat rascals is.
It was the Chicago Tiam, we
believe, which informed its readera that Blaine's call upon ths President had so political significance that Blaine was not an applicant ar any office, as the only position be cared for bad been filled. Chicago is putting "op buildings ten and twelve stories high. They have one ad vantage. The tenants of the upper floors are not tifcely to cost their friends much for
funeral expenses in case a fire breaks

whieh is kept in place with a wooden linchpin. The portion which passes through the wheel is soon worn, the result being a constant
wabbling and swaying. A long
pole is lashed at of the axle,aud the other to the yoke, which, passing behind the horns is fastened to them, all with bands of raw hide. The shrieking of the anlubricated
axles u excruciating. It. is assert
ed that the jar upon the heads of the cattle from hauling heavy loads over rough roads upon such a rig is so great that after a year or two their teeth drop out.
They say that Cerro Gordo Williams, of Kentucky, who want
ed to be minister to Mexico, was
so mad when be beard the place
had been given to another man that he pulled off his wig and threw it
oat of the window, split bis wooden leg into splinters, smashed his
ear trumpet with a ball oat, flung his spectacles into the fireplace and swallowed bis false teeth to give a proper demonstration of his rage. It is out expected that Williams will be sufficiently repaired to make the journey to Kentucky before the time for corn planting, It has been a long time since the world has been so shaken up .by "wars and rumor of wars" as it is to-day. To begin with, England baa a war with 1 Mabdi on her bands in Eygpt, an insurrection in the midst of her North American possessions and a big quarrel with Russia threatening to break out into actual hostilities, to say nothing of Ireland, always turbulent and discontented. France is fighting China without having declarrd war, and meantime is trembling in her shoes because of the unsettled condition of matters
at home. Italy is helping England out of her trouble in Egypt, and
has a row of ber own with Tripoli. Spain is spatting with Morocco. Corea and Japan are fighting over ancient quarrel. Chili and Peru have not got through their differences. Central America is bubbling over with internal troubles, and the several States are fighting each after the manner of Donnybrook fair. Even Uncle Sam is so far inet rested that he has sent marines to protect his flag and his people to that section Thoa. Buskirk of Paoli, passed through Bloomingtoa on Sunday evening, on his way to Ci-lumbus, Ind., where he has purchased the Democrat office. Buskirk has been in the business, and will make it win.
Latest advtoes were that Gen. Grant is resting comparatively easy, and that he may live several weeks. The danger is that blood poisoning may ensue, or that the cancer may eat into an artery, when be would of course bleed to death.
Of course it would be too bad if England and Russia should go to war, but if they witi fight, this country can be counted upon to do The fair thing by both sides in the . way of furnixfaing anything that atay be required to carry on the rumpus. It is thus that we might be able to' turn a great evil into a peat blessing.
The New York Son thinks
the reappointment of Pearson, Republican, postmaster ot New York city, mt a shock to the Demoeratie -party that will work injury to it in that town. It is tbe one supreme thing that the Independent Republicans asked for and insisted upon. Considering that without them Mr.
Cleveland could not have been elected, the Sua says their recompense is not very large. A copy of the Breaham fTex.) Daily Banner of Saturday, March asay: The Houston Journal -says that

The Grant fund of $250,000,
tbe interest of which only goes to General Grant, can, by the terms of subeeription, be devised by
Grant to whomsoever of his heirs be may desire it to go. The
supposition is that he has mad a
will bequeathing tbe money to his
wife and finally. It is virtually bis property, it was collected for bis benefit, and the only reason it was not given to htm out and out was that his friends feared sharpers might get it away from him. In view of his unfortunate experience with bis friend and speculator, "Ward, the uUeribere to tbe fund were wise in the precaution tbey took to place the money beyond bis control. nrln a private letter from Mexi-

Hall were the speakers. A special car took our college delegation to the contest Thursday. Tbe following ladies attended : Susan McCaughan, Grace Woodburn, Minnie Bryan, Maud Vanzandt, Misses Addie and Ella Wileou. ' Mr. John B. Miller of last year's class has gone into tho newspaper business, in partnership with Mr. Ochiltree of the Indianapolis Herald. John has a host of friends in Bloomington, is a first rate fellow, and deserves success. We believe that the abolition of the Oratorical Contests should be taken into serious consideration. If there are reasons for and against them let us hear them. The whole University is interested. What are their benefits? Does any college escape trouble over its primary contest? Do they engender envy, enmity, and hate? Do (hey develop character and manhood? Is there any gain in scholarship? What kind of men do they develop ? Do tbey produce orators and thinkers? Has, a diligent student, a clear writer, an intelligent reader, a man of broad thought and ideas, equal chances against a mere declatmer? What do these orators amount to after they get out of college? Is there any gooi education and training io the whole business? If a man steals a speech and takes the contest is it all right and is he a hero? We are not expressing an opinion ; we are simply asking questions which we think are pertinent. Those who are interested onght to answer. 4 Cel. J. W. Poster, lately reappointed by Pres. Cleveland as U. S. Minister to Spain is well-known in Bloomington, and fur a number of years has taken a lively interest
in the welfare of lndiaoa Universi
ty. He graduated with the class of 1855. He will sail for Snain on
the 22d of this month. The Indianapolis Journal correspondent writes from Washington : Tbe selection of Colonel Foster, who is a stanch Be publican in politics, to return to Spain, in the interests of this government, by a Democratic President, is a compliment of unusu 1 consequence s i ngle in the history of tbe government, but is well bestowed. He goes upon a special mission that of negotiating a new treaty with Spain and he will brine to the
discharge of the duty diploma tic talents of
a aura order and laree experience. His
scquaintance with Spanish statesmen and

now is recognised as invaluable.

The 11th State Oratorical Con
test occurred at Indianapolis, on last Thursday night. There seem
ed to be an uuusual interest in the
contest, as there was an unusually
large attendance, and very large
delegations from the various colleges of the State. Bloomington sent a delegation of between 90 and 100. With these, and alumni and friends from other parts of the
State, our representative had a loyal and hearty support. Following
are the speakers, their subjects, the colleges they represent, and tbe fraternity to which they belong; A. J. Beveridge, Delta Kappa Epsilon, Dc Pauw, "The Case of Capital and labor." M. M. Dunlap, Sigma Chi, State University, "A Distempered Civilization." J. A. Kaute Phi Delia Theta, Butler University, "Reason and Reverence." T. J. Giboney, Phi Gamma Delta, Hanover College, 'ildeal Manhood." . E. W. Brown, phi Gamma Delta, Wabsh College, "The Rise of the People." W. II. Van Cleave, Phi Delta Theta, Franklin College "The L-bW."
We clip from the Indianapolis' Journal report: The fifth speaker introduced wan Mr. M. M. Dunlap, of the Stale University at BloomiiuMon, sub
ject, "A Distempered Civilisation."
Jbrom tbe begin uing, Mr. Dunlap was impressive and perfectly at ease. tie possesses the natural qualifications of an orator. His voice was stroug and easily heard ,
all over the house, but he evidently was suffering from hoarseness. One noticeable mannerism detracts from his delivery a peculiar wav of'
ending a period. His gesticulation
wa&natural and unaffected, and for that reason very popular. Mr.' Dunlap's speech was iu some parts ! rich in pathos, and as a whole was a fortunate subject, dressed in good diction. A prolonged ovation ensued at the close of the speech. The judges retired and after a half hour had elapsed the result was announced as follows : Mr. Albert J. Beveridge, first place, with a per cent, of 97, having received the vote of .four judges out of tbe five. Mr. M. M. Dunlap came second with a marked per cent, of 92. The third place was given to Mr. Giboney, of Hanover. Mr. Kautz received one vote for first place. Tbe victor is a member of the seuior class, and a young man twenty-three years old. This makes the seventh prize he has taken in oratory, never being beaten but once. The result gave general satisifactton. This is the second victory for De Pauw, which is as many tiroes as any of the other smaller colleges of the State has taken the prize. The contest usually consists of the State University against the field. The field is gaining a litile. But we still hold a majority of the points, six out of eleven. But are we not slipping back a little in oratory ? What shall our future be ? Shall this field of education be abandoned? As to the abolition of college contests in oratory, which we suggested last week, the Indianapolis Journal has since had the following to say, editorially :
Unless there can be a large infusion of
good sense . ana decency into the matter, tbe sooner the "oratorical contests' are 4o.na away with tbe botuir for allcuncerned. The young gentlemen of the sovcral colleges and universities have been irmit kindly treated by the press and tbe public; and we can readily see how these annual bouts, conducted in a fair and gentlemanly way, would be not only plmisant rpisiHies in college life, but would be greatly profitable in the development of the art of graceful mid furcelul publ.c speech. But no one can have failed ta observe that for the hst two or three years tbe rivalry belweun the college- has ceased to be gnncrous and manly. It has descended to a level beneath tbe dignity of educational institutions, and the tendency, unless severely and perumptorily checkec, must ttorkgraat damage to the college! and to the students alike. Pending tbe last two or three contts the most serious charges were made, but nothing equal to the bitterness now displayed ha ever been known. Committees and delegations from one or more universities have visited the newspaper offices for tbe purpote, on tbe one hand, of baring published charges that would blast tbe reputation of a contestant and put a stigma upon the college of which he was toe representative, and, on tbe other, to secure tbe publication of defences against slanderous imputations openly and industriously circulated in the hope of prejudicing or forestalling the judgment of tbe judges upon the merit of a given performance. Tbe extent to wbicb this bitterness and envy has developed is alarming to tbe sincere friends of the institution involved and to the well-wishers of tbe young gentlemen themselves. The condition of affairs that now obtains is to be regretted ; but it is worse than useless, and it wquld be unfriendly,to ignore it or tuoappceas it. Tbe "contest" to-night will not be a fair, manly, generous emulation, but it will be attended with passion, with eivy, witb mean-spirited jealousy, and with methods that are simply disgraceful to those engaged in them.
