Miss Mollie Waldroa entertain

ed a number of her friends last Fri day evening. A number of students were present and participated in the enjoyment. The business on the railroad has become so great as to very seriously interfere with the entertainments given at the college. One arg u ment at least m tavor of the new location. The matter of licenseing saloons is one of no email importance to the eollege, and we' are glad to notice that the profesors are putting their best foot forward in the matter. We are drawing near the elose of what has been a very succeifnl term to far as the eollege is con cerned. Let every one see to it that he passes his examinations "with credit to himself and honor to his fraternity." The postponement ef the Junior exercises on account of the citizens meeting in the interest of temperence met with the hearty approval of citizens and students. The feeling between the citizens and the college is probably nearer now than it has ever been. The parts of she skeleton found in H outer's pond last week have been collected together by Prof. Beck. The skull and thigh-bone are lacking. Prof. Beck says he will send off and g. t these two pieces. Wonder where fie will send? Seems to us that the students ought to be able to get to the evening entertainments in time. It causes no slight disturbance to have persons coming in at all times ( ouldn't you wait and come in during music, or better still would it not be a good idea to have closed doors after a certain time. JUNIOR EXHIBITION. A large and appreciative audience gathered at the college lastTuedayevening to hear the first annual exhibition of the Junior elass. It had been a question in the minds of many as to whether or not the new style of cla ss essayx at public exhibitions would be better than the old publics," but this Junior performance certainly settled the dispute in favor of the new style. The committee on selection; Profs. T. r. VanNuys, J. G. Newkirk and Mr. c. H. Gilbert had u doubted ly selected the essays with great care, and as far as we know the ones chosen met with the general approval of the class Dr. S' oss acted as President for the evening and relieved us of the old cut and dried form of announcing the subjects The following was the programme of the evening: "The Light of Asia," John E. Wylic; "Ame vican Scenery," Kate Pearson; "Strikes," l- dwardC. Fitch; "Strikes' John W.Carr;' oncealed Weapons," Robert E. Scott; "The Highest ducation of the Few," Klmer E. Griffith; "Luther," William !. vason; " mericaif Scenery," Mabel S anta; "Should the Government Own the Telegraph?" Samuel M. s wing. Mr. ylie gave us asplendid'review of Arnold's Light of Asia. His essay was concise and showed his apreciation of the poem. issPearsoi ' essay made a general sweep of our country's sreuery, showing America to be equal to any country in this respect, and giving here and tliere a touch that showed discriptive merit It so chanced that Messers Fitch aud arr had the same subjects but taking different views. Mr. Fitch took the ground that strikes were injurious to all parties and to society, and their real cause, lay at the bottom of our society. His argument was plain and well put. However, he would do well to attend more to hisjestures. r. Carr claimed that strikes were a benefit, and that they were almost necessary for the proper regulation of affairs. He backed his argument with some strong stastistics, and made a good speech on a very unpopular side. He was probably to strong in srrae of his statement aud exnibited a feeling of too much strenarth in his positions. N e wish esj ecially to commend the essay of Air. beott. He gave us something out of the ordinary line of "funeral orations" that are delivered off the college rostrum. lie evinced a wonderful amount of common sense argument in a man - er that brought at least a smile from the most sober, lie placed the pistol on an equal footing with whiskey and handled the "gentlemen of honor" with ungloved hands. Mr. Griffith made a strong speech in favor of the highest education of the few as a benefit to the masses lie made a brief review of education and arrived at a strong conclusion, carrying through the whole a bea'utiful thread of argument. The Subject of 'Luther" was handled in a masterly way by Mr. Mason. He made the reformation a thing of necessity and showed that its leader must come from the class of Luther. He spoke entirely to fast Miss Banta limited her discription of Scenery to that of her own acquaintance, taking the cliffs of Lake Superior. She showded wonderful discriptive powers, her picture of the wreck and the allusion to the scene on these cliffs in Longfellows Song of Hiawatha was strikingly beautiful. Mr. Ewing was not present. The music furnished by Mrs. Miers, Mrs. Buskirk, and Mr. Maxwell, with Mrs. Armagnao atthe piano, wa highly appreciated.
