THE CRAWFORDSVILLE WEEKLY JOURNAL.

The Wabash College commencement exercises began on Saturday evening when Maurice Thompson delivered his address on "Literature and Life" before the Phi BetaJKappa society and its guests at assembly hall. A representative audience greeted the distinguished speaker, who was introduced by Dr. J. F. Tuttle, the president of the local chapter of Phi Beta Kappa. Mr. Thompson's address was a magnificent one and those hearing it could

PRESIDENT W. P. KANE.

readily appreciate the high encomiums passed upon it by the press of Boston, where Mr. Thompson delivered it a few days ago. The address was a- strong defense of the policy of national expansion in the light of the constitution and the declaration £of independence, which historic document Mr. Thompson denominated as "literature." Right adroitly did he prove by the recital of our national history that this country has always held to the policy of expansion and the conclusion£of his logic demonstrated that nojmatter what party might ascend to power wefwould never relinquish our new possessions. He was frequently interrupted.Jby applause and although he spoke^for over an hour his audience was a most attentive one. $

THE BACCALAUREATE.

Assembly hall holds more people than any church in Crawfordsville yet its capacity was tried and found wanting Sunday morning. The day was beautiful and the hundreds who thronged through the campus gave the grounds a sprightly appearance. The hall was tastefully adorned-1with flags and flowers and when filledjgwith the splendid audience that gathered there it presented a most attractive spectacle. On the platform with Dr. Kane were Rev. S. W. Goss, Rev. H.JL. Nave, Rev. A. J. Alexander, Dr. J. F. Tuttle, and Dr. Runyan, who assisted in the services. After the invocation by Mr. Goss the glee club led in the singing of the hymn and Mr. Nave conducted the

responsive reading. The glee club then rendered an anthem and Mr. Alexander gave a scriptural reading, which was followed by the prayer of ex-President Tuttle. The solo of Charles McClamroch was a pleasing feature of the exercisos. The subject of Dr. Kane's sermon was "The Actual and the Possible Man," and his text was found in John I, 42, "And when Jesus beheld him He said, 'Thou art Simon, the son of Jonah thou shalt be called Cephas.'" The sermon was short and strong and appealed with peculiar force not only to the members of the graduating class but to every auditor. In concluding Dr. Kane said to the graduates, who, attired in caps and gowns, arose: "Young gentlemen of the class of 1000, the truth,I have been urging this morning applies and should appearwith peculiar force toiyou. You have reached the most interesting and significant stage in your career. Standing as you do upon the threshold of mature life you are facing the opportunities and problems and responsibilities of manhood. The years that are behind you have been largely occupied in learning about the world, its resources, its achievements, its problems, its leaderships. Henceforth you are to become a part of that world your own lives a part of its problems your own purpose and energy giving direction to its movement and your own character entering into the working out of its destiny. It becomes a matter of great concern to you whether you shall interpret or misinterpret the world whether its affairs shall absorb and limit your purpose or whether they shall be a sug-

gestion and an incitement toward the real things of which they are but shadows and symbols. It is only as you gain this higher conception of life here as looking and leading toward the unseen and the eternal that you can rise into your possible selfhood. I pray that this thought may cling to you with the memory of this service, and that as you go forth to take your places in the ranks of life it may be «with open vision and responsive heart toward Him whose divine mission is still to call men from their actual to their possible selves 'Till we all come in the unity of the«faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God unto a perfect man unto the measure of the stature of fullness in Christ Jesus.'"

THE COMMENCEMENT SERMON.

The commencement sernlon was delivered in Assembly Hall Sunday evening by Dr. Arthur J. Brown, '80, now secretary of the Presbyterian board of missions. In spite of a raging thunder storm over a hundred people groped their way through the dark, wet campus and attended the service. Dr. Brown's sermon merited the large audience it would have had uuder more auspicious circumstances. His subject dealt with the relation of the Christian church to the world of to-day, maintaining that it was the controlling power in the affairs of men.

CLASS DAY.

Music Hall was packed Monday night for class day exercises of the seniors and the performance was certainly a financial success. The class, however, did not have the gross receipts as net

favorably with those of former years although certainly bettor than the exercises of 'i)8 and '9!), which were simply perpetrations. The administration of the collego was not criticised, but was in reality commended and in this regard the class day was a relief and an exception. There wero some'rough "roasts," some entirely too rough, but as a rulo good humor was displayed. The play had for its text the change in Wabash College under the new administration and while the-lugging in of Shakespearean creations was far fetched it gave variation from the tedious burlesques oi the professoi's which have obtainedtsinee the day this class of entertainment was introduced at Wabash. It seemed in-'fact to be the aim of the writer of the play to dodge beaten paths and his effort is to be commended, if not his creation. Several of the specialties were very good, indeed, and elicited considerable applause. The characters assumed were as follows:

THE PHYSICAL DIRECTOR.

Anthony W. Chez, who assumes the position of physical director of Wabasn College, at the opening of the fall term, is notably one of the finest athletes in the west, and maintains not only a record for supremacy, but also for fairness and character. He is far above the tricks of the profession and will introduce at Wabash that which is cleanest and best in athletics. Mr. Chez will also act as the college secretary of the Y. M. C. A. His specialty in athletics is foot ball, and for two years, '97 and '98, he was captain of the foot ball team of Ober lin, that team being right in the front rank during those seasons.

for it was put to considerable expense quartette rendered several selections in the way of costumes and properties, and F. P. Mount spoke for the city and The performance as a whole compared P. W. McCallistor for the senior class.

THE BALDWIN CONTEST.

The annual Baldwin prize oratorical contest took place Monday afternoon at assembly hall and quite a respectable audience gathered there at the appointed hour. The several speakers acquitted themselves very creditably and the contest was possibly the best for three or four years. The programme was as follows: "A Place for Unity" E. W. McAfee "Tho Lion of the North" G. M. Vorls "Whither" Gibson Wilson "The Mission of a Natlon"...G. M. Whitenack "The Zettgest" W. H. Hays "Industrial Emancipation" _W. T. Todd

The judges were H. H. Huston, of Princeton Dr. Ristine, [of Ft. Dodge, Iowa, and A. J. Martin, of Logansport. Being unable to agree they divided the purse between E. W. McAfee and Will Hays, who were declared a tio. This is the second time the prize has been diyided, Edward Daniels and-J. P.Roth sharing the money in 1875.

THE TUTTLE BUST.

On Tuesday at half past ten o'clock occurred the unveiling of the bronze bust of Dr. J. F. Tuttle. The exercises were conducted from the porch of Center hall and seats for several hundred people were arranged in the shade of the great trees in front. Behind the seats were gathered a large number of carriages. Gen. John C. Black presided on the occasion. The college

The presentation speech was by H. J. Milligan, of Indianapolis, while the speech of acceptance was delivered by Dr. Kane. All the addresses were peculiarly happy in character and in all of them Dr. Tuttlo was feelingly referred to, causing him to remark when his time upon the programme came that he bad been one of the very few men privileged to hear their own funeral discourses. General Black, upon the conclusion of the stated programme, spoke for a fow minutes in his most happy manner. The bust when unveiled was greeted by prolonged applause and it is a work of art well worthy the admiration bestowed. The bronze is a faithful and life-like portrayal and the sculptor, Karl Schwartz, in its execution sustained the high reputation he has been given. The exercises of last Tuesday wero of a character highly gratifying to all concerned, and certainly a fitting testimonial and tribute

THE TRUSTEES' MEETING.

The trustees re-convened Tuesday aftornoon with the following out of town members presont: Edward Daniels, William S. Hubbard, Rev. George L. Mcintosh. M. L. Haines and Simon Yandes, of Indianapolis Daniel P. Baldwin, of Logansport, and James L. Orr, of New Albany. Tho board elected Mr. Chez to be physical director for next year. The recommendation of President Kane that a series of lectures on teaching and other subjects to be given by men of prominence next winter, was approved, as was the treasurer's report, which showed that the. college had been carried through the year very successfully and that the finances of the institution were in excellent condition.

R. E. Bryant resigned from the board of trustees because of ill health and Edward Daniels, of Indianapolis, was elected to fill out his unexpired term. Mr. Daniels was one of the candidates of the alumni and will now become a regular trustee.

The vote on alumni trustee was canvassed and Rov. T. D. Fyffe, of this city, was elected by a large majority. The vote stood, Fylfe 175, Daniels 99, Gregg 83. Mr. Fyffe was the candidate of tho college alumni co-educational association and the friends of co-education consider this a victory for the cause. Lyman B. Giover, of Chicago, was elected to fill the vacancy on tho board caused by the departure of ex-President G. S. Burroughs.

A committee was appointed to secure a portrait of the late Daniel B, weather, of Nfjw York, to be hung la the library building. It was also decided to attach the n&ma of Fayerweather to the chair of mathematics.

Before the board adjourned they conferred the following degrees: Master of Art, in course—E. V. Brumba,ugh, of this city George B. Sweazy, of Salt Lake City, Utah Fred Shanklin, of Adams, N. Y.
