WEDNESDAY, JUNE 15, 1892.

THE DAILY JOUHNAL IS on sale by Robinson & Wallace, and Pontioua & Lacey.

THE ALUMNI EAT AND TALK,

And Also Deoide That They Would Like a Voico in the Management of the College. Anyone passing the college campus last evening could not fail to note how grandly Ynndes Library Hall, brilliantly lighted, loomed up in the surrounding darkness. Every alumnus, no matter how long ho had been away, could fail to know where the banquet wns to be held if ho got within range of that light.

At 8 o'clock the nlumm went into business session. Harry Milligan was called to the chair in the absence of the president, Dr. Haines. C. M. Moores spoke of the meeting of the Indianapolis alumni at which they had adopted resolutions favoring an election of part of the trustees by the nlumni. He thought the association ought to pass a similar resolution, giving the well known sound reasons. This brought forth considerable diBcnssion in which it was learned that by the terms of the charter the alumni could do no more than nominate pereons for the position of trustee and they would have to be elected by the board itself. This is only a teohnical matter, however, Bnd so a resolution was passod asking the board to elect each yoar two trustees nominated by the nlumni, the remaining three to beohosen HH heretofore. T. H. Ristine spoke for the board saying that the matter would be considered by them and very likely the plan would be adopted. Ollicers elected as follows: Charles W, MooroB, '82, President Prof. J. H. Osborn, '79, Secretary Rev. G. D. McGnllocli, '7fi, Orator H. L. Nave, '72, Alternate. Ben Crane, O. L. Thomas and i'rof. A. B. Milford, banquet coi mittee. The class of '92 was admitted to the association. The alumni then together with a number of invited guests from the city, adjourned to the west room npstairs whore plates had been spread for 125 persons nnd everyone was taken. The following elegant menu was put "out of sight:" lloneil Turkey with Currant Jelly.

Uolled Mum and French 1'lckles ltroml.

Collee. Chocolate. Tea. When every nppetite had disappeared the president of the evening, Cnpt. J. E, Clelland, of '62, rapped on the table nnd the following programme was ci ried out with two exceptions:

tie. "Our Presldeut"—H *03.

Cunningham, I). D., of Crawlordsvllle. "The Coluinblau Exposition"—Ljuiuu H. (ilover, of Chicago, Class of "A Closer Relation Between College and Alumni*'—Nov. Geo. D. McCulloch, Class of

The two exceptions were Dr. Niccholls who was indisposed, nnd Mr. Glover, who at the last moment telegraphed from Chicngo that he was unable to get away. The speeches were all unusually felicitous, and although it was Wednes day morning before the last word was said the interest did not lag. The tone of nil the remarks was of pride in the history of Wabash and bright hopes for her future. In addition to the regular programme Judge Taylor, of Ft. Wayne, and Tom Marshall, of '73, spoke briefly. At the close on motiou of Dr. Putnam the address of Capt. Clelland, which was a beautiful tribute to President Tuttle, was endorsed by the nlumni as a Blight expression of their regard for him. Capt. Clelland was idso authorized to appoint a committee of three to act with the committee of the trustees in raising that $30,000.

Ho Fears a Small-Pox Scourge. Dr. Metcalf, secretary of the State Hoard of Health, yesterday addressed a »i miliar letter to the secret arios of the county boards upon thesnbjectof smallpox. Although there are few or no cases of the disense in Indiana, the indications nre that it is heading this way. The letter says:

:'i

"Upwards of eighty cases of smallpox in Ohio, Pennsylvania nnd West Virginia towns and cities, nnd roceut cases in Michigan and Illinois, clearly nlicate that this loathsome disense again threatens the citizens of our commonwealth, after eight years of almost complete freedom from its ravages. The epidemic of eight years ago caused panic and quarantine, disturbed travel, traffic and businoss, cloBod schools nnd courts, caused a large number of deathb nnd involved a money loss to the people of many thousands of dollnrs.

AB all of the trunk railway lines leading from the East to the West paBS through our State there is great danger of an invasion of this terrible disense. It is, therefore, our duty to urge all local health authorities to co-operate with the State Board of Ilealth in the enforcement of measures for the prevention and suppression of this and nil other contngious, infectious and communicable diseaseB. The attention of the conference of town, city and county health officers to be held in this city June 10 will bo called to this matter, at which time it will be thoronghly discussed. Owing to the great importance of the business to be considered nt this mealing it is hoped that your board will not fail to send a representative."

GBADUATI0N EXERCISES,

The Glass of '92 Goes Out—Eloquent Address by Dr. Niccolls, of St. Louis. Music Hall was well filled this morning by a large and intelligent nudienco and the rustle of fans fighting off hot weather was only equalled in noise by the "aizz" of the soda water fountains around the corner where the young people rosorted every once in a while to refresh. The corridors were kept comparatively clear during the exercises and but little of the usual trouble was thus experienced. The music for the occasion was furnished by the college orchestra and it was almost equal to that of seraphie choirs. Tt was simply out of sight. At half past nine the clnsa attired in their mortar boards and gowns entered upon the stage and sat in a semi circle just back of Dr. Tuttle's chair and that of Dr. Niccolls, of St. Louis. The faoulty sat immediately in the rear of the Seniors and back of them the trustees und visitors. Dr. Putnam, of Logansport, read the scripture lesson and led in prayer after which Dr. Tuttle introduced Rev. S. J. Niccolls, D. D. LL., D., of St. LouiB, the commencement orator, who had chosen as his theme, "The American College." After a few words eulogistic of Dr. Tuttle and his admirable administration of thirty years Dr. Niccolls began his address proper and commanded the closest at tention of his audience throughout. Dr. Nicoolls believes in tho old fashioned college where the classics are taught much more than he believes in institutes of technology. He did not believe tho country had too many col legeB nnd in every one that sprang into life he saw the evidence of progressive thought nnd patriotism. Dr. Niccolls is ready speaker and his orations aro enjoyable even on hot duys.

At the conclusion of Dr. Niccolls' address Dr. Tuttle announced the conferment of Lhe following degrees: Judge E. P. Hammond, of lionsselner, L.L.D. Rev. C. H. Little, Danville, 111., D. I). A. J. Martin, L. E. McCord, Oswald D. Humphrey, M. A. Brannon and Robert N. Whitford, M. A. President Tuttle then delivered the following address, after which the diplomas were presonted:

"Having obtained the help of God I continue until this day." So said St. Pnul. The need of help is the moa9ure of liuhuman weakness, and the universal attendant on human conditions. Alone the strongest is weak, with help the weakest is strong.

May I without irrevcrenco use these words? To-day I reach a iroal in my life which excites within me the profoundest interest and wonder.

It seems but yesterday since the venerable messenger of this college crossed our threshold with this mesnago: "(Jouio over and help us." 1 had not asked him to come I did not know he was coming. 1 did uot know that anyone any where had any plan for my coming. I had nevor been a place seeker. God sent me to a place and 1 had staid there tifteen years. 1 had learned to love it, its people, its work.

When, therefore, tho venerable messenger of Wabash College, that winter day, asked mo to leave that place to take the vacant presidential chair in this institution it was a painful surpri se.

And yet I obeyed the call. And now, aftor thirty years, 1 explain the coming and its outcome by humbly repeating the words of St Paul: "Having obtained the help of G"d I continue unto this day."

The place was uot abed of roses. Tho civil war was raging. But why rehearse that storyHow like a dream it now seems. How did we survive tho excitement of those daysf Why did not this college diet And indeed it did somotimes seem as if wo must die. Tho record of endurance and doliverancc finds its explanation again in tho words of St. Paul, "Having obtained the help of God I continue unto this duy." The overshadowing evils and tho deliveranco of tho college find here their clow.

I have referred to our financial straits. They at times wore very groat. The college was in debt and the debt was inoreusisg. It seemed sometimes as if we must surrender to inevitaole bankruptcy. What a history of magnificent financial deliverance has it been. And this explanation is found in "the help of God."

Let mo magnify "tho liolp of God" by looking at it from anether view-point. During 30 yoars my journey has been with men who couid, if they Imd boon so disposed, hud made mo and themselves miserable.

I do not claim perfection for any one or all tho faculty. Tliore has been among us great unity of purpose and feeling. So fur as I know wo have had no divided aims, ungratified ambition, Tho faculty I

found hero 1 have sometimes compared to "old gold," "worth one hundred cents to the dollar." 1 liavo many times spoken of theso men as "the splendid old chivalry of Wabash college." They were wholly devoted to tho college which never had a day so dark that their couragoous faith did uot make it light. No future historian can do justiee to this part of tho history of Wabash college without making this fact prominent.

As I recall one by ono thoso men my heart goes out to them with peculiar love to-day iu overflowing measure. They have made my way hero bright and 1 explain the fact as 1 do those already named by saying "Having obtained tho help of God I continue unto this day."

As long as 1 live these must con stltuie a profoundly ititcresimg share of the 30 years experiences. I am uot so untruthful as to assort that all thoso memories are entirely pleasant. They are not. "Somohavo caused pam. It would not bo true to assort that in my judgment all have dono what thoy might and oughi. 11 is possible- somo too many—did.not rise to a full sense of "tho glory of sweat and work"—the high privilege of being poor when povorty glorifies triumph.

In ono respect uiy experience as a college officer is not uucominou. 1 refer to prac tical contact with tho young inon. Tho driving wheels touch the rails at this point. It is supposed that 2,7U0 young men have boon connected with the institution sinco I first saw it.

Theso young men have not greatly difTor od from other young men in intellectual and moral qualities.

But the most have boen toilers, and not a few ot them have ultaiued what they aimed at.

Wo have had some of tho escapades of college life, but free from malicious inteut. These come back among tho memories ut this solemn hour. As somo of them come back I laugh. Possibly as somo of them return I wince little as though a son had smitten me. And yet for all this small dead lly In my not of sweet ointment, these young men—all of them—are our young men—they are mine—God bless them! Personally I have not suffered myself to maintain ill will to any student. Were tho entire throng boforo me—alas! sjmo of them aro no longer among the living—I would spread forth my hands and slncoi oly uttor the holy benediction—"God bless you all—yes *u.. When I attempt to thus glance at tho multitudo who have boon hero and to sum up tho results of tills long period. Without pretending to anything more than an humblo share in the work, 1 say with profoundest humility and thanksgiving, "having obtained tho help of God I continue unto this day." But it is tune to briig theso remarks to_a closo. I seom even now "in my mind's eye," to see tho

founders, and trustees, and benefactors, and friends of the college—the deud ami the living—a goodly company. Friends, 1 love you. I glory in being one of your company. Wo have wrought together for a common end. Some hove loft us for a higher fellowship. A blessing on their memory! Somoofusaro not far behind tliein. May we be faithful even to death. But thoso who have gone before and wo so soon to follow them shall not take Wabash college with us. It will abide ana contiuue to work out its holy mission As tho years pass away our pluces shall be filled with men who shall love the college as wo have done, and help it its work. Others shall fill its treasury and guide its destinies, and in turn hand it over to others worthy to belong to this honorable succession in the name of God and mankind.

And If so be the holy ones of that country shall be permitted to revisit the scones of their loves and labor, perhaps wo may come buck to look on tho growth and glory of our college, and then I am cortam we shall say with gladness too big for utter ance. fully "Having obtained holp of Uoil we continued in this work!" And then wo Bhall say, "not unto us, but unto thy name. 0 God the Father aud tho Son, anil tho Holy Ghost, bo honor and glory for over and ever."

Hretliren and friends, ye holy oues who arc passed into the realms of the blessed, and ye who still abido in the flesh Ye who have toiled for this college and ye who have thronged its groves ami iis halls 1 thank you as one ofthe least worthy of your number. 1 thank you with a full heart! and el again and agaiu gratefully repeat the words, "iiiviNu OHTAI.NKU TIIK IIKI.IMIF I101! HAVING OBTAINED TIIK HliLP OF GOD!" I continue unLil the day a witness of his immeasurable goodness. Farewell! "Now unto Him that is able to keep you from falling and to presuntyou faultless before tho presence of His glory with exceeding joy,—"To the only wise God our Savior be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now aud forever more. Amen."

Dr. Tuttle nt the conclusion of the address was about to announce the doxology when Dr. Niccolls stepped forwurd and in a few well chosen words proposed three cheers for Dr. Tuttle, which were given with a right good will, then another for Mrs. Tuttle. Tho doxology wns then sung, the people tiled out nnd the administration of Dr. .T. F. Tuttle, with all its credit aud all its glory wns nt on end.

Killed His Neighbor.

Charles Edmunds, a traveling man who arrived lioro this afternoon, gives the following account of bloody murder which occurred in Boone county this morning, several miles this side of Brownsburg:

Frank Adams, a furmer and cattle buyer, and a very estimable gentleman, wus foully murdered at 5 o'olock this morning by his neighbor, Beuj. Wing, a farmer. For several days Mr. Adams hnd shown signs of being demented and several times hnd laid down a partition fence and turned his cattle upon Wing's premises. This enraged Wing, not withstanding he wns given assurance that damage done would be pnid for by tho Adams fnmily nnd that arrangements would be mnde to-day to have Adams taken to the asylum. Wing was instructed not to go about Adams but ho took a shotgun nnd went whore Adams wns und shot him from his horse, the ehnrge fairly teariug off liis head. Wing says the killing was done in self defense nnd that Adams threatened to kill him. Wing gave himself lip ui the sheriff nnd has been taken to the Lebanon jail. :.

This morning Miss Emma Keltner, the well known scarlet womnn, aud an equally dissolute companion were before Mayor Bandel nnd finod and oosted to the extent of $31 ench. They had boen loose on tho turf last night, nnd loading up on iced ohampagne and Becky Ontman's beer hnd proceeded to do the town. Thoy were bended for tho ool logo with the avowed purpose of breaking lip the alumni banquet wlion cor ralod by tho polico. Both lire now languishing in tho body of the jail.
