VOL. IV. No. 137 MaroonCHlCAGO, WEDNESDAY, MAY 9,1906.UNUSUAL PREPARATIONSFOR CLUB PERFORMANCE PRICK Two CJUn"SCostumes and Scenery for ''Trelawney of the Wells" to beExceptional.Proceeds ·0 Settler.1f'nt-Seats MayBe Reserved for PerformanceOn Junior Day.( Dainty hoop-skirts. be-ruffled andbeset with rosettes and bows, corningdown not so far as to obscure theHuffy lace undergarments and gracelul-....aokl�-and pretty little slippers;fascinating bodices and long. lightand airy shawls;-in short, costumessuch as our grandmothers looked themost winsome and charming in whenabout eighteen years old are beingprepared for the girls who are totake part in the Dramatic Club's presentation of "Trelawney of theWells." Then of course for the menare being arranged the "dandy"clothes in which our grandfathersthought they were most handsomein the eyes of our grandmothers,a way back in the fifties: high stovepipe hats; those big awkward turndown collars with the huge cravatsthat stuck almost out to the shoulders' the tight-fitting trousers thatwc:e anchored down like Uncle Sam'strousers are; the conspicuous watchfob and the indispensible cane, andall the other foppery of' those times.All these odd fashions of sixtyyears ago are, to be faithfully reprodaced in the effort to make thispresentation of 'c'Trelawney of theWells" as nearly as possible like theoriginal production of Mary Mannering, who first presented it inAmerica. The play itself presentsgreat opportunity for interesting ac�ing, and its success under the gUIdance of Mr. Robertson, one of theleading promoters of dramatic art inChicago, is assuredThis year's play, as last year's, willbe given by the Dramatic Club forthe benefit of the University Settlement. Last year fifty per cent of thereceipts were donated to the Sttlement. The same percentage of thereceipts will again be given to th.eSettlement, but it is expected that Itwill represent a greater amount ofmoney than last year. Tickets wiltbe on sale at the end of the week.Reservations of seats may be secured at any time by addressing Russell Wilder, Faculty Exchange.Addresses Arts CoDege Men.Mr. John B. O'Connor, a graduatestudent of the University, addressed ;the men of Arts College this morningon "Modern Greece." Mr. O'Connorhas recently been over the classicalplaces of the country and his talkwas therefore very interesting. Hetold of some of the customs andhabits of the present dwellers in theland of Hellas, and explained in detail the' work of the American Classical School at Athens, which, he says,is the best of all the schools locatedthere for the study of the ancients.He declared that a trip to Athenswas a necessity for all students ofGreek who desired a full appreciationof their subject.All students registered for physicalculture A should call for blanks atDr. Raycroft's office at once. 30N3H3dNO:l HOd S3IH.LN3Michigan Leads With List of Contestants-Iowa College .

REPORTS LAY BAREMANY THEFTS FROMTHE REYNOLDS CLUBInventories of Furniture and LibraryShow Large Peculations byClub Members.Small Movable Objects Taken As"Souvenirs"-Magazines AreSpecial Mark.Startling facts were brought to theattention of the Reynolds Club Exec.ntive Council at its last meeting'which prove the existence of awholesale system of pilfering on thepart of the members of the club,: amounting to over one hundred and; fifty dollars in property of the club: during less than a school year..The fact that property had beenstolen repeatedly was known to theofficers of the club for some time, butthe extent was only realized whenthe inventories of the Department ofBuildings and Grounds and of the'librarian of the club were presentedand checked over.The first inventory deals with thefurnishings of the club, and of thesea very ·large amount is missing.Brass stands for matches have provedto be particularly attractive, no lessthan twenty-two of these having disappeared,-a monetary, loss of thirtydollars in this item alone. The enterprise of the thieves has· notstopped at this point, but even aheavy chair and a small' oriental rughave been part of the plunder. ' -The Iibrary has suffered severely.Out of thirty-four volumes of Periodicals which should now b ; ready forbinding, but five are complete. Thisdoes not include weeklies, which arein such bad shape that an estimatehad to be postponed. Between thirtyand forty books have also disappeared. On a par with the theft ofmagazines has been the mutilationof magazines and newspapers, whichhas been equally effective in destroying the files.The club officers have deferred forthe present any definite action. President Hostetter said:"It seems too bad that it may bec�nie necessary to guard club property as from a crowd of criminals.We are hoping that public sentimentagainst that 'sort of thing will put astop to it. We will be prepared,however, for drastic action if that'fails. We have enough evidence nowon which to go ahead if we wish tocarry the matter further."Want Seniors at PanamaRequests have just been receivedfrom the United States governmentfor mechanical draughtsmen for service at Panama.

For these men, the new'organization will give the opportu-nity of discussion and co-operation.The greatest value of the new club.however. will undoubtedly be to themany college men who, like the average citizens outside. feel an impulseto perform the active duties of citi-"zenship, for the sake' of the generalwelfare, but are somewhat at a lusshow to take hold. The general indictment of educated men for a; failure to make themselves count as·they ought in politics is unqucstion: ably true; college men have 110t givenback to the Commonwealth what it'has had a right to expect.

TheCommonwealth Club great interest not onlyto college men but toeveryone who is inter-ested in civic improvement. It originated in a propositonof the Yale City Government Club toencourage the establishment of similar clubs in other colleges and universities. a propositon which washeartily endorsed by the conferenceof political Reform Associations ofthe principal cities of the country,held in Chicago last January. Theproposal was based on the idea that"an association of the prominent ':01-leges of the country dedicated tocompetency and honesty .in government and formed on non-partisanlines would be a potent factor in thepresent and a beneficial influence forthe future politics of our country."Already representatives of twelveleading colleges have met in NewYork, and at President Roosevelt'sinvitation spent an evening with himat Washington. Since that time thegroup of students who sent a representative for Chicago to that meeting. have completed organization andbegun active work as the Commonwealth Club.The rapid response of Chicago tothe suggestion of such an organizationis due to the fact that the need ofsome club of the sort had alreadybeen seen, The University of Chicago man docs not need to be toldthat the familiar notion of the college man as either too superciliousor too visionary to he worth considering in politics is not altogether true.We have had many students as wellas faculty men who know by personalexperience what politics are like, andwho have taken off their coats andworke«l honestly for good government. Political parties and reformorganizations in Chicago will both or more. The larger it is, so long as: it continues to be practical and· earnest, the better it is for the University and for the Commonwealth.The Inter-Fraternity BaseballLeague, organized two weeks ago,has proved itself eminently successful in maintaining and even increasing the good, hearty. fellowshipwhich exists between the fraternitiesof the University. The spirit ofrivalry has been kept intense a11 thewhile. but the defeats have been takenin a sportsmanlike manner. Friendlyspirit srill prevails and every indication points to a season of interfraternity activity never beforeequaled. This is one of the eventsof the year in which almost everyfraternity man can participate, andwhich, especially, this year, has become deservedly popular. It is saidthat fraternities in other co11eges do !not work together with the accord !and spirit of our fraternities, and thestatement is apparently not farwrong. We would advise. therefore,the organization of an inter-fraternity ;baseball Ieage for colleges where thisclass of men are not in complete harmony.
