The college year closes with the friends of Indians University full ef enthusiasm. Everybody is noticing the general air of confidence in the fntnre. President Jordan
has ooBBmaaieated his spirit of
work and enthtiwaeia totbeanthorities and friesda of the Institution, and it scents thai the college never
had so aaasy ardent friends as it has to-day. Students, Faculty, Trnateea and strangers, are aU loyal to its interests, and no one is arrayed is eritieisnt or opposition. The ooaaaoeneement season just

Mr.Heiney spoke on "Demand for Educated Men." His speech was a strong appeal for education as a sure means of eradicating the evils of government and society, and be showed that great responsibilities rest upon men of higher education. Bis appropriate words to the Seniors were responded t by Mr. Fitch. Hesperian Society was represented by Miss Alice Springer, who presented in a pleasing style the intimate relation of "Liberty and Christianity." Miss Dora Merriield responded to her farewell in a Best speech Mr. McCormick next discussed the advantages ot a "Qualified Suffrage," based upon education. His reasons were strong and well pot, said the effort was pronounced by many the best of the evening. Mr. Mason replied in his usual manner, and gave some timely words to bis brother Athenians. The exercises were highly appreciated, and the performers elicited hearty applause. The Valedictory Exeremfls were worthy of the merits and ability of the Class of '85. BEUSI05 of '80. The custom of Class Reunions, established by the Class of 76, is
hcontinued by later classes. The
Class of '80 held their reunion exercises in the Chapel, Saturday eve, June 6, before an immense audi-
Ttaese reunion exercises have
quite popular, and general
ly re the most interesting exercises of the week. The last two reunions, however, have declined con
siderably both in the attendance of
the Class, (which is tne essential feature to a reunion,) and in the interest attaching to the performance. This suggests that perhaps it would be better not to have the reunions till the classes have been out ten years or more. Of 28 members of 0, only 13 were here, and six of these are residents of Bloomington. President Jordan read an address of welcome to tbe Class, which was responded to by Mr. Spangler, Class President. The Historian,
Mrs. Jennie Campbell Leavenworth, of Virginia, sent her History of tbe Class, which was read by Miss Lottie Fans. It contained any interesting references ; we give its closing summary below. Mr. Linooln Dixon, of North Vernon, Ind., gave the class oration on the subject' "The Mill never Grinds with the Water that is Past." The oration was thoughtful and dignified, in parts eloquent, and deserved tie favorable commendation it
1 received. Miss Kate Hight's
Prophecy was quite rich, containing some of the best hits of the evening. Tbe Class Poem, by Rev. T.B. Stewart of San Francisco, was characteristic, and well received. We have been favored with the
dosing paragraph of the Class His
tory : Thus elospt the record of the first five years since we left our Alma Mater. The majority of the members have already chosen their life work and are established in the

Prof. Branner is a native of Ten-
fwef and a graduate of Cornell University. In 1874' bo west as assistant geologist to Prof. Cbas.
Frederick Hartt, who was at tbe
bead of tbe Imperial Geological Sorvey of Bnal, and had, for four years, charge of the field work, regg in 1880, after tbe untimely death of Prof. Hartt. In 1881-3 Branner was eommiesioned botanist
in Brajrfl; in 1833 special agent of!
taw Ajvpanawns or Agriculture to Thai Brazil for tbe third time to make a study of the insects injurious to tbe eottoo and orange. Sums that time he has been topompbi-
cal geologist for Pennsylvania of the anthracite eoal region. Ho has traveled in all parte of Braaii, and written numerous papers relating to fetology of that region. Prof. Branner'a long experience with var
ied peoples and races, makes him

Nine of oar members are engag
ed ia the law : Messrs. Davis, Dix

One is an editor, Mr. Carr. One merchant, Mr. Blair. One Astronomer, Mr. Leavenworth. Three teachers are engaged in edu
cational work, Miss Munson, Messrs. Axtell and Snyder. Four are
boose-keepers and "home-bodies," Misses Faris, Hight, Allen and Campbell. Tbe remaining four, Messrs. Buntin, Gray, Spangler and Weatherby are engaged as clerks and agents in various capac
ities. Fourteen of the twentyeight are married ; and of the re
maining fourteen, eleven confidently hope to be long before another five years pass. The infant recruits number seven, of which two each belong to Messrs. Blair and Vandament; the remaining three to Messrs Cair, Philputt and Snyder. Serious changes have occurred in oar Alma Mater since last we met, and death has entered many of our horaea since that date, but our dam numbers are still unbroken, though its members are so widely scattered. Five years ago we agreed with one accord that nothing but death should prevent our attendance at this reunion, and we do
assert that this resolution -has been
faithfully observed. 8ome familiar forms and features are missing, but in tpbrU we are all here and extend the gladsome greeting long live ihe dear old elan of 1880. After die exercises the class, accompanied by their invited guests, the faculty and trustees, repaired to the National House where a grand banquet had been prepared, and spentthe time in social conversation until near 12 o'clock. After tbe banquet, the following toasts were proposed, A. B. Philputt acting as toast-master: 1. Oar Reunion "Let old times be recalled, but old feuds forgot." Response, C. E. Davis, Bloomfield, Ind. 3. Loyalty to our Alma Mater "May her children be as the sands of the sea for multitude, and as the sons of Anak for strength." Tbos.
I Stewart.
3. "Five years out and what has come of it." H. Q. Houghton, Shoals, Ind. 4, "The future of the University." Judge Banta, Pres. of the Board of Trustees. This account would be incomplete without a word of compliment to Mr. Lawes the accommodating proprietor of the hotel, for the very excellent style in which he served the feast of which all partook so heartily. The members of the Class present were : Wm. F. Axtell, Bloomington ; Wm. T. Blair, Bloomington; Cyrus E. Davis, Bloomfield ; Liacoln Dixon, North Vernon; Lottie E. Faris, Bloomington; Hilary Q. Houghton, Shoals; Kate M. Hight, Bloomington ; Wm. W. Moffett, Bloomfield; Fannie C. (Allen) Palmer, Columbia City; Allen B. Philputt, Bloomington; Wm. W. Spangler, Bloomington ; Thomas B. Stewart, San Francisco, Geo. W. Woods, Indianapolis. THE BACCALAUREATE was delivered Sabbath afternoon at 3:30 by Prof. Elisha Ballentine, on the subject, "Your Counselors, who shall they be?" His words, like the occasion, were solemn and impressive ; and it seemed quite appropriate that Prof. Bal leu tine, the Cincinnati of the University, who goes again to his retirement at the end of this year, should give the closing words of counsel to the departing class. His words will be remembered. THE PBEPABATORY COMMENCEMENT exercises began, as usual, Monday morning, at 8 o'clock. The present class numbers 19, eleven girls and eight boys. They have completed the coarse in two years, and hold certificates of admission to the Freshman class. The work of the High School during tbe past year, under the faith
ful and efficient superintendency of
Prof. Beck, has been remarkably successful, and it is said that the present class has completed more work than any previous class, being the first to do all tbe work in Latin prescribed in the catalogue for admission to Freshman. Miss Elsie Bankin, taking first rank in the class, delivered the valedictory; Miss Emma Adams with the second position, gave the salutatory. The large and attentive audience proved that the interest in our High School exercises has not grown less in tbe last year. Tbe following program was given with great success, each speaker acquitting him
self with credit :
Salutatory Only Once, Emma L. Adams, Sroithville. Bolters, Ed. E. Crawford, Cope. Character, Minnie I. Mayue, BloomingtonDynamite, Bice Holtsman, Bloomington. Dakota, O. E. Mellette, Watertown, Dak. Human Sympathy, Cora E. Woollay, Bloomington. Grant, Theodore J. Louden, Bloomington . FUnoers, Ella 3. Oorr, Bloomington. Immigration, Frank T. Brodix, Bloomington Dream and Reality, Leafy Deli Lucas, Bloomington. The River and the Sea, Nellie V. Wade, Boston. Fanaticism, Bomulus Boyd, Darter. Song, Lucy G. Woodward, Bloomington. Horticulture, Mamie E, Brodix, Bloomington . The Human Face, Ionia G. Armstrong, Springville. Whetstones, James H. Graham, Bloomington. Government of the People, Albert L. Beck, Sellersburg. "Sharps and Flats," Josie E. Pittman, Bloomington . Valedictory A Hundred Years Ago, Elsie Kaukin, Pittsburg, Pa. While each nerformanceis worth v
of commendation, it will not be un
fair to compliment miss Josie irittman, whose delivery of her publics ia always excellent, Miss Ionia
Armstrong and Miss Elsie Rankin, whose orations, like themselves, were bright and cheering, Miss Emma Adams and Miss Leafy Lu
cas. Miss Liiicas in a womanly es
say on "Dream and Reality" very appropriately referred to two of her girl class mates, Misses Alice Ful
ler and Lora Karsell, who have talen from their ranks since thev be
gan their Preparatory course and
are now "sleeping their young girl
Knnrl nwav " So in this hour of
youthful triumph a fitting tribute
was paid to tne sacred memories of girlhood friendship. Probably the best performance of the moraine. nxt to Miss Rankin's, was that
of the colored boy, Monroe Graham. . . . . . ii?
He spoke witn an air ot intelligence which marks him as a young man of promise and power. Judging from this commencement mommo cmnnarison with his white
classmates is decidedly favorable to
him. We understand that nis classroom work during the year has been of a high order, and he has gained the good treatment and good opinion of every member of his class. He is the first colored graduate from our schools, and by his
deportment and scholarship he has
done uiuco to area uowu auy iuuish race feeling which may be in
our community. It is Mr. Gra
ham's intention to go througn college. Tbe Prep. Day was an eminent
success. A connoisseur in we an
of ViPAiit.vin thn audience would no
tice the general handsome appear
ance of the class ; it is seitiom a score of young people average so high in tho attrac tiveness and beaurv rf the pirls. The henutiftll flor
al decoration between the windows
with '"85" in the rare and purple flowers, was an offering to the class from Prof. Bryan. The "shield" of flowers was afterwards presented by tho class to Miss Elsie liankin, the Valedictorian, THE ADDBESS BEFORE THE SOCIETIES was delivered Monday night to a large audience, hy Hon, J. W. French of Mt. Vernon, Indiana. Subject : "The Perpetuity of popular Government." The lecture was in good taste,, of the right tone, was pleasing to the attentive audience, and marked its author as one the capable and rising young men of Indiana. BUSINESS MEETING OF ALUMNI. The Alumni met in the Department of History, Uuiversity building, 10:16 A. M. Tuesday morning. On motion of the Secretary, Hon. Vinson Carter, of Indianapolis, was elected President, pro tern. On tbe nomination of Dr. R. M. Weir, the. Hon. W . M. Springer, M. C., of Sprinfield, Ills., class '68, was elected the annual orator for the next reunion ; Hon. A. C. Mellette, of Watertewa, Dak., was elected Alternate. The following are tbe officers elect of tbe Association : President, Hon. H. D. McMulUn, Class 'S. Vice President, J. G. McPheeters, Class '34. Secretary, J. A. "Woodburn, Class '76. Cor. Sec'y, Fannie B. Maxwell, Class '81. xzctmTS committee: Dr. J. D. Maxwell, Jr., Chairman; Nat TJ. Hill, Miss Prudence Arnott, Hiss Beatrice Sanders, Dr. B. M. Weir. Miss Morrison addressed the Alumni for a few moments on tbe matter of equal representation for women in all University matters. On motion of Miss Lizzie Hughes, a committee was appointed to solicit from the Alumni contributions toward establishing and maintaining an "Alumni Alcove" in the new and growing University Library. All the alumni present seemed to favor the project. Miss Hughes, Miss Morrison, Prof. Atwater, Prof. Bryan, and Mr. Geo. C. Banta are the committee upon which the matter depends. CLAES DAY. Tuesday afternoon was cool and fair, and so the large audience that met the Seniors on their Class Day had positively nothing to complain of. The twenty-six marched in in pretty .style and sat down in automatic precision at the nod of Mason's baton. Alter a song Batman read a history of the class that deserved on every account the fine attention it received. Its pathos recalled the earnestness of tbe occasion ; it sparkled witb wit aud humor, and was written and read in excellent style. This was followed by Dunlap's history of the historian, aud another song, after which Fitch gave a masterly oration on "Literature in the Mississippi Valley." Oaks' performance was a cornet solo that fairly earned the applause which greeted it. The late Senior tramp into Brown county was elegantly and wittily told by Griffith. Wiley read a poem entitled "Tautalus," which was well received.
Carr reveiwed the Faculty in the dialect of Hosca Biglow. Miss
Banta read the Class Prophecy. This was charged with electric wit, of a higher type than that usually
served on such occasions. Miss
Banta's future was set forth by Mr. Spencer. The performance closed witb a song, and the highly enter
tained audience departed. On the whole it seems to have been the best class day on record. The music in which Mason, Scott, Oaks, Batman, Misses Banta and Merri-
field took prominent parts was especially enjoyable. One of the best tributes to the merit of this performance was the presence of such a vast apdience, one of tbe largest ever in the University Cbopel. Crowds stood in tbe windows,the aisles, the door ways and halls, and remained quiet to listen for nearly three hours. The class of '85 will be remembered
by that audience for years to come
It is a memorable class ; and as we
listened to their closiog exercises,
celebrating their glad yet responsi
ble days and years of college life,
now forever receding, we telt that their intellectual strength, their many scholarly qualities, the bright nromise of their youth, had stamped
their names in the memory of i ac
uity, students and citizens in an unusual way. In our mind we will often hear the roll call: Bain, Ban
ta, Bryan, Batman, Carr, and the
rest, all ot whom carry with them to their work the well wishes of a host of friends. HON, HUGH D. M'MDLLEN, of Aurora, Class '62, delivered the Annual Address before the Alumni, on the subject, "The Study of History as an educative force." Mr. McMullen is one of the prominent men of Indiana, and his visit to Bloomington was anticipated aa a matter of considerable note. No one, among the political forces of Indiana, has done more for tho higher Institutions of learning fchan he. His lecture was an analytical and able discussion of nn educational suhject, a condensed report of which was published in the ludianapolis Journal of June 11th. COMMENCEMENT DAY. It is seldom we have such cool and beautiful weather for Commencement week as favored us during the week just closed. Commencement day wan all that could have been denired, and one' of the largest crowds on record greeted the graduates Wednesday morning

THE ALUMNI SOCIAL,
Wednesday evening, in the Halls
of the University, closed the social festivities of the Week. Though a smaller crowd than nsuul were in attendence, the young people, always gay and festive, enjoyed the occasion as of old. When tbe new buildings are open, and there are facilities for entertainment, the Alumni Social will be of sucli a nature as will attract young and old alike, citizen, student, Faculty, aud tbe visitors without our walls. The toasts at tbe late banquet were in excellent taste. Supt. of Public Instruction, Holcorubex responded to "Public Education in Indiana;" W. J. Bryan to "Thefutureof Indiana in Higher Education ;" W. C. Mason to "The class of '85;" C. E. Davia and T. B. Stewart lo "Visit
