II, NO. r6.-_OLD WILLIS) BRIDE.A SKETCH.THE lights of the little church at Granger's cor­ners peered tremulously into the darkness.One by one the teams had emerged from the night,and the women folks, in fringeless shawls or bedrag­gled cloaks had clam bered from their seats to thepla tform and hurried in by the fire, while the menwhipped up for the sheds. The chatter of the house­wi ves about the stove had settled into a monotonousundertone, the bowed, bronzed men, who had stoppedin the hall, had about settled the circumstances ofcornhusking and the weather, and the hard-faced,toil-toughened boys upon the platform, were goingthrough their customary horse-play." Goin' ter get married l' echoed the mass on theplatform, "who tu?" "Yes, sir, I tell ye," exclaimedWid Frike excitedly "�stop yer shevin', Le--I tellye, I seen him goin' fur her. He wus all drest upslick an' clean, an' he tole me that she'd seen thatthere advertisement he'd put in ther papers an' hadwrote up about it, an' that she wuz comin' an' he wuzgoin' after her then. I don't think there's nothin' to dobut to go round there an' liven 'em up a bit."."Ole Willis wuz aroun' ter Muggs' shiveree.Guess it won't hurt none fur him ter pony up him­self," said big Dan Thompson.c : I 'eard 'im say 'e'd shoot anyun 'et shi vereed'i rn ," cautioned little English Willie Snyder."Huh! {Guess we ken shoot,too,if he wants ter,"defied Dan.

The widder wouldn't hev him," corrected LeeHarvey, "she said she couldn't love no man thet nedbeen sneaking 'round an' find in' out how much sheowed, instead uv takin' her on trust, ez he ought ter."The little organ inside began to wheeze dismally,and the men in the hall filed into the meeting-room."Come, boys! come into church," urged theyoung minister from the doorway.The crowd snickered mysteriously, and stampedclumsily down the steps. The young minister watchedthem groping their way into the darkness with sad misgivings. These human young, in their grim con­vict-like lives, and their heedless, colt-like gambols­near enough to the s t atron to absorb its ''Vulgarity andviciousness, but not its scanty culture-had beenutterly beyond hIS reach.Poor old 'Nillis-so the neighborhood designatedhim. A little weazened-faced old man, weakened byhard labor and excesses, living all alone in his baretumble down shanty-fumblingly cooking the littlefood he ate, going in trembling haste about his work­nervous and excitable, still hoping and trusting againstold tools and old horses, and his own poor old frame­yes, Willis was going to be married. He had thoughtof it when munching his dreary meal, or mechanicallyfollowing his tinkered-up. plow, when lying in hiscorn-husk bed beneath the low, cobwebbed rafters, andthe shingles that were being thrummed by the rain­drops. It was many years ago he had made up hismind to it, but he had seen the young women he hadcourted take a place, one by one, in some other man'shome; he had seen the six Jones girls slowly slip frombeneath his grasp and beyond his hopes, and theseven Druce's one after another grow stout and hearty, 'and end in unapproachable tea-drinking old maid-domeBut now, all his uncertainty, all his weary expectancywere ended. No more dreary, lonesome days andnights, no more cold breakfasts before work in themorning and a cold house after it at night. He hadput an advertisement in the paper-she had seen it­he had seen her picture, and she was coming. Nowonder Wid Fr il-.e had caught him in a bran newstore suit when he was on his way to the station.,"Hist-shut up Lee-this 's the way," directed\Vid-" ther ain't no light in his room, maybe theyain't come yet. "" Sh--be still there-ef they ain't here we'll takethe cider, anyway, an' lay fur 'em when t.hey come,"suggested Dan.They stole like a troop of marauding wolves intothe little yard, and over the dead tangled grass to thehut, and peered into the four-lighted window."Ain't nothin' here," vouchsafed Dennis. " Le'sstrike the cellar."They laid their collection of musical apparatus,tin horns, tin pans, tomato cans,-upon the cellarsteps, while Dan Thompson and Wid Frike eachtucked a revolver back into their breeches pocket."Wha's the matter!"" He's alone!"" Were's his woman?"" Is he killed?"" Whoa!"Wid bent fearfully over the limp form, and scan­ned it carefully."N aw! he ai n t dead.

They heard the wagon swinging up the gradeto the big gateway, and could dimly see the team gal­loping along the lane."Sh--ftJlers, let 'er go when they stops ter getout. "The team came on a round pace. Willis didn'tseem to care to check them. "\Vid was afraid he mightdrive past and spoil the surprise."S�s-let 'er g-o!" he whispered.Wild yells shivered the air.A half dozen shots rang out, the powder and smokesprang into the horses' noses, the din of tin horns andthe clatter of tomato cans chimed into the hubbub,the lantern flashed upon the scene and disclosed adozen shadowy forms, prancing and hooting likedevils.The team, terrorized by the pandemonium, sprangback on their haunches, and in the wierd light theboys saw a dark, dwarfed form roll off the seat andtumble to the frozen ground.The Ancestral Vault.(From the German of Uhland.)Over the meadows. an old man went,To a chapel with many a grave;Clad in armor, yet weary and bent,He entered the darkling nave.The coffins of his fathers lay,The gruesome vaul t along;Out of the depths, ne'er touched by nav,Came a wondrous, warning song." I have heard your greeting," the old man said,Ye spirits of the brave,Your honored line with me must die,I am worthy such a grave.On the dank stone floor, in a corner cold�tood a coffin yet unfilled;This couch of rest took the warrior old,Laying low his head on his shield.With sword in folded hands he lay,And calmly fell asleep,The ghostly voices died away,And all was silence deep. DEAR SIR:- -" I ain't comin'--neither's the twenty dollarsyou sent-a pleasant weddin'.Yours,MISS BRIGGS."" Poor ole man!" said Wid, "he's wan ted her sobad he couldn't stand it. He drunker'n a dead man."They tenderely picked up the corpse-like body andcarried it into -the house. A couple of them stabledthe team, then came in and watched the others.They had laid the old man upon the bed, and weresilently stripping off his clothes. A woman's portraitfell out of his pocket. Lee picked it up and lookedit over. It was a bold hard face, it had been powder­ed and painted."That's her," he said, "-and see that blot abouther lips-that's where he's kissed it."He put it quietly back where it came from, andthey filed down the stairs and in to the yard."Guess we don't want no cider to-night," Danm utt ered. "Let's shiveree the church."They shut the big gate behind them, and left 'oldWillis to awake in the morning to one more heart­sickening memory, and his same weary, dreary, exile-like life. H. H. MANCHESTER,s. A. Day of Prayer Exercises.Thursday, the Day of Prayer for Colleges wasfittingly observed by all the departments of the Uni­versity. The attendance at the meetings of the col­leges and schools, at eleven a. m., were very wellattended· The different divisions met as follows:Graduate students in Chapel, Cobb Lecture Hall.Address by Head Professor A. W. Small.Divinity students in Lecture Hall, Cobb LectureHall. Address by Dean Thomas C. Cham berlin, onUnrecognized Religiousness.University Colleges in Faculty Room. Addressby Assistant Professor J. H. Tufts.Academic Colleges in Kent Auditorium. Addressby Associate Professor Butler, on The Universe aCosmos of Beneficence.In the afternoon at three o'clock, an audience whichcompletely filled the Kent Auditorium, listened to anaddress by Rev. Frank W. Gunsaulus, of ArmourInstitute..IUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.Oratorical Society Organized.On Wednesday night, January I7th, a goodlynumber of students meet in the lecture room to reor­ganize the Oratorical Society. Upon discussion, itbecame evident that the organization this year wouldtake a wider scope than that em braced in the Orator­ical Society last year, taking in as a co-ordinateorganization a Debating Society. As this was thefirst meeting, of course the policy was not fullydefined, yet it will be easy to characterize some of thefeatures. The name of the organization will probablybe the Oratorical and Debating Society, the debateshaving the predominance one night and the Orator­ical work being the main feature at the next meeting.This society will have charge of the oratorical contestand all similar features; it will also give a Shaks­pearean recital in April, and other amateur perform­ances. The work outlined, and the work that ispossible for such a society, ought to commend itselfto the intelligent class of students, and be taken upby them and made a permanent and important featureof the University. It is to be sincerely hoped thatthe spirit of "grind," which caused the Athena-urnSociety to die from lack of support, will not bepresent this time. If students haven't time to devoteto all organizations so important as this, it argues butpoorly for the rostrum, and pulpits, and benches thatthese men will fill in after years. .In the person of our genial and accomplished Mr.Clark, we have a most competent critic and adviser.The officers elected at the last meeting were asfollows: President, Mr. Voight; vice-president, M.S. D. ,Barnes; secretary, Mr. Hosic.The .first meeting will be held Monday evening,January 29th, for which meeting the following debatehas. been �rranged: Resolved that Immigrationshould be restricted by a Property and EducationalQualification, Affirmative, Hosic and F. Barnes;negative, Evans and Goodyear.Fifth Monday Ileception.Arrangements are being perfected for a reception,to be given by the men who have as yet done nothingin a social way for their fellow students. The weightof obligation to the women of the quadrangle hasthus far borne them down, but now they have risenad unum 071Z71es, and the world shall hear from them.It has been decided to inaugurate the custom of giv­ing Fifth Monday afternoon receptions to the wholeUniversity. Men have reasoned: If Beecher canhave a "First Monday," Kelly, a "Second;" Foster,a "Third," and Snell, a "Fourth;" why should notwe, we of the Graduate, of the Barry, of the Harcourt,of the basement, of the street, have a " Fifth MondayAfternoon Tea." Accordingly next Monday after­noon, J anuar), 29th, the first fifth Monday functionwill come off. See bulletin boards for further par­ticulars. 3Essay Prizes.The American Peace Society of Boston offers thisyear three prizes, of $ roo, $50, and $25 respectively,for the three best essays on the "Economic Waste ofWar," to be competed for by the members of theSenior and Junior classes (those in the regular coursesleading to the Bachelor's degree) of the Colleges andUniversities of the United States.It is intended that the treatment of the subjectshall be in the form of an argument against war. Thesubject may be so extended as to cover not only di­rect waste of money- and property in war and warpreparations, and the burdens of taxation, but alsoany consequent derangement of commerce, interna­tional distrust affecting trade relations, loss of life asaffecting the productive industries, and the moralcharacter of war so far as involved in its economicwaste.The conditions under which the prizes are offeredare as follows:1. Each College or University competing shall. forward butone essay to the American Peace Society, the choice between theessays written by the Seniors and Juniors of said institution to bemade by its Faculty, or by judges appointed by them"2. The essays shall contain not less than 2,000, nor more than3,500 words.3. The copies of the essays sent to the American Peace Societyshall be type written, and shall be at the disposal of the Society,to use as it may see fi t.4 The comparative merits of the essays forwarded shall bedetermined by a committee. named by the American Peace Society,who shall render their decision on (1) the force of the argumentand (2) on the general character of the composition.5 The essays must be in the hands of the American PeaceSociety not later than the r yth of July, 1894.Exchanges.The following from the Brunonian (Brown U ni-versity) will be of interest to Chicago students.The largest number of students ever assembled atone time in Brown came together in mass meeting onMonday last, to adopt resolutions expressive of theirappreciation of the self-denial and love of the collegeshown by President Andrews in declining the mostflattering offer from the Chicago University and re­maining at his post in Brown. The following resolu­tions were adopted:Whereas, President E. Benjamin Andrews of thisUniversity, has recently been called to the Chancellor­ship of the University of Chicago, including the Chairof Philosophy of that institution; andWhereas, After considerable consideration, he hasseen fit to decline this most urgent and flattering call;be itResolved, That in view of this most generous ex­pression of his loyalty to Brown, and firm desire toadvance her welfare and increase her usefulness, we,the students of Brown University, do hereby pledgeour sincere support in the accomplishment of his farsighted and beneficent plans for the welfare of theUniversity./I(4 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.UNIVERSITY OF CHICI\GO WEEKLY.PUBLISHED WEEKLY IN THE INTEREST OF THE STUDENTS OF THEUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO.MANAGER, C.

W. Burnham of the University of Chicagofor his discoveries and micrometrical measures ofdouble stars and for his researches on the motions ofBinary systems.This news is especially welcome to Americanastronomers and will be favorably received through­out the scientific world, for no observer, either livingor dead, has contributed more to this. important I,JOO, and include the most rapid and interestingpairs in the heavens.It is understood that these stars will be madeobjects of special attention at the Yerkes Observa­tory, and they will be carefully followed until theirorbits are accurately known. Prof. Burnham's cata­logue of his new stars and his general catalogue ofall the important double stars in the northern hemi­sphere are to be printed among the first volumesissued by the Yerkes Observatory, and will consti­tute works on Double Star Astronomy which aredestined to be "aere perennius." The high honorconferred upon Prof. Burnham is a, tribute to purescience which will be fully appreciated by all Ameri­can astronomers, but it is especially to the intimatefriends-friends of this modest, unselfish andrenowned observer.Other American astronomers who have receivedthis medal in recent years are Prof. Simon N ew­comb, Prof. Asoph Hall, Dr. B. A. Gould, Prof. E.C. Pickering and Dr. G. W. Hill. Last year thegold medal was conferred upon Dr. H. C. Vogel,and the preceding year upon Prof. G. H. Darwin.The University of Chicago may congratulateitself in having secured the eminent services ofProf. Burnham, and upon this great honor whichhas come to the University from the most illustriousastronomical society in the world.** *A MEETING was held last quarter at which aChapter of the Hyde Park Protective Associa­tion was organized, and those present signed the con-branch of modern astronomy than Prof. Burnham, stitution and became charter members. Committeeswhose discoveries of new and new close pairs havecreated an epoch in the history of double star astron­omy. The discovery of double stars, begun morethan a century ago by Sir Wm. Herschel, and sincecontinued by William and Otto Struve, Herschel andModler, Dowes and Dembowski, was regardedtwenty-five years ago as practically completed. But thegenius of Burnham working with only a six-inch te le-'scope soon brought to light hundreds of close pairsnever before detected, and opened the way to laterdiscoveries of priceless value. Prof. Burnham after­wards secured for a time the use of the Dearborn,r Svinch refractor, and the Madison, Is-inch, and thusextended the list of measures and new discoveries.His work at the Lick Observatory is too recent to were then appointed to canvass the Faculty and stu­d en t body, to secure the signatures of such as cared tobecome members of the Chapter.Certainly no member of the University can fail toappreciate the advantage to the University, and con­gratulate the University upon the good fortune ofbeing located in a prohibition district in the city ofChicago. It is hoped, therefore, that there will be ahearty response on the part of the members of theUniversity, to the call for the support of this Chapter.The prohibition districts in the city are maintainedonly by the vigilance of protective associations.

"I was in just theright humor for a call; I know she was tickled when Itold Jim that I never tired of calling at his house,each visit revealed new charms. Don't blame Jim forfalling in love with her before he met his presentenamorita, fickle fellow! Jim, his motto instead of'absence makes the heart grow fond,' would run morelike' absent ones grow farther away.'"Wonder why the "deuce" she lives in Buffalo?She ought to come to the University, a very intellec­tual girl, way up on history and literature; glad I'mtaking courses in those subjects, and didn't I springthe pet theories of my two profs. with gus to? Tho'tI'd fool them when it came to accounting for the"hard times," with my "proly con" explanation,but that uncle of hers nearly upset me there, and Ihastened to change the subject, he was too well upon it; and U Jimmy!" but he's a shark on that mindtransference; lucky I read that magazine article ofProfessor Comstock's on mental telegraphy. I neverwould have believed there was so much in it, had itnot been for his practical illustration there, to-night;why he could make me do about anything he wished.I could feel him "sizing me up" from the firstmoment; made me feel uncomfortable for a while, butthat soon wore off. He's a good fellow, all right, butI'm deuced glad I had no secrets, he'd have knownthem sure when he got me in that state, I'll have tolook into that mental telegraphy business more."Such were the musings of Dick Knowlton afterhaving spent the evening at th.e house of his friend,Jim Russell, where he had met the fair cousin and her.uncle. On reaching home and his room, his musingstook another direction, for the rays of his student­lam p revealed on the table a large book with "Mill'sPrinciples of Political .Economy" on the cover." Gad! I'll have to get that, I'm about due to becalled on to-morrow, and let's see.-c-eleven now, I'llhave it down by half-past twelve then sleep till half­past seven, that's seven hours and then I'm all right.".. He started but somehow could not concentrate his attention as well as usual and in the midst of the"wages fund theory" found himself answering thequestion,-" does the demand for commodities in­crease the wages of labor?" With-" such combi-. nations of beauty and intellect in women are rare;character too, why, you can see it in every line of herface; and those eyes, perfect' swells of tenderness,'"and din't they light up when I got off that remarkabout" pretty women being the roses on the rose­bush of humanity." "Gosh, I can't study to-night,twelve o'clock, get up at six, that's six hours, pshaw,that's enough, I'll get it then," and the last thing hedid before going to sleep, .was to think over the listof his numerous relations and reflect that he had anaunt in Buffalo of whom he was very fond, and wouldvisit at his earliest opportunity. Six o'clock foundhim still in bed, and only half awakened by the alarmclock, which he had wrapped in a towel, so that theticking wouldn't keep him awake (so he told himself).He thought first "I'll wait till it stops ringing, "thenfive minutes more, then ten, fifteen, and so on ingeometrical ratio, until a quarter of eight, when itwas a case of have to. He dressed and breakfastedhastily, and half-past eight found him on the collegestairs, where he met Jim with "you're all right oldman, and I'm proud of you. She's a stunner, and youmade it easy for me to get quite familiar on suchshort acquaintance. I'm sorry shes not going to staylonger. It 'broke me all up' to have' to say 'good­bye.' Train leaves at eleven-thirty, don't it? Let's godown to the depot." But he was cut short with," you won't have to go to the depot. Marion and heruncle are coming over this morning to visit the' polycon' class, he's quite a shark, and, say, I gave you agreat 'send off.' You want to do lots of talking, andmake a good im pression, she's fond of bright men.""Gad, I'll have to cut, I don't know a word of it."" But I told her she'd see you there, and she seemedquite pleased."Dick groaned inwardly, and started up, resolvedto get excused, but the class had begun. He sum­moned .all his nerve, walked in and took his accus-.tomed seat with eyes cast down. "Guess its aquestion of 'flunk' outright or gracefully," he thoughtto himself. He looked up and caught the eye of MissKersten and her uncle, who seemed to be scrutinizing6 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.rather closely. That hour was more trying thanmany days, -nay weeks of his college career; a seniorwith his dignity to maintain, and he had spoken ofthe number of freshman in the class, too. But hemusn't flunk; he would make a " stab," manage some­how. Minute after minute passed until within tenminutes of the end. A bright thought occurred tohim, there were forty in the class, the professorusually called on about eight, that made the chancesfive to one against his being called on. But then hehad not recited for three days. His figuring wasinterrupted by a series of flunks, one, two, three,four and then five and six fell down. "Come seven"he thought to himself with a sickly smile; just thenthere was an uncomfortable pause. " This is the fun­damental principle in to-day's lesson," the professorsaid sternly, "and such ignorance is unpardonable.Dick began to feel uneasy, the professor was lookingat him. He grew fa-int, he could feel the perspirationon his brow. It seemed to him that everyone in thatroom knew what was going on within him. But theydidn't; only one knew, and that one was a friend.Dick's mind was a blank when his name was called,he cast one glance towards Miss Kersten and heruncle, and her uncle's eyes were still riveted on him.And then, he didn't know how it happened, but hebegan to talk. His mental apparatus seemed to havebeen readjusted. He only came to himself when thebell rang, and one of his fellow students=said "youknocked him flat that time, old man."

D. IOTi :iIWith the Athletic Editor.UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY,Baseball will probably be played all summer atthe University. In other colleges the doors close andthe students go home about the middle or the end ofJune. In the new University, however, the wheelsof education go 'round all year long, and there will beas many students thronging the campus during thesummer months as at any other time of the year.College baseball has hardly time to get warmed up inChicago by the middle of June, the season being solate here in adapting itself to outdoor sports, andProfessor Stagg thinks the summer idea of running abaseball nine will be just the thing. Of course, theUniversity nine, on which is staked 'the glory ofalma mater to wipe other college teams off the earth,could not be kept intact. Nor could contests be heldwith other colleges in the summer, but a good manyof the players live in the city, and others will keep ontheir studies during the summer. Thus a team ofgood playing quality could be made up. Games couldbe played with City Legue teams and the ChicagoAthletic Club.Mr. Stagg, is known best, of course, in baseball.His pitching for the Yale blue will never be forgotten.He will not play on the nine he coaches this year,and whatever his young men do they must do with­out his aid. Nichols is hard at his studies this year.He has gone into training -and will form one end ofthe new battery. Where the other is going to comefrom no one .knows. It seems early to talk aboutbaseball, yet it was just this training indoors allthrough the winter that brought out the 'varsity teamso well last year. If one were to ask Stagg whatmakes a baseball player, he would probably reply:" Work." He believes in work more than anyother one thing in base ball." Work is a new word in western athletics," saidStagg last week. "They hardly know what it is.Take Webster, of the baseball team. When he wentout on the field last year he could play ball like aschool boy plays' scrub,' just for the animal sport.At the start he was an ordinary player, but with hardwork he came to be a brilliant man at the finish.Work in baseball is not so essential as in foot ball.The former requires more skill, greater nicety and afiner co-ordination of the muscles. The latterdemands a finer animal, a better trained body.When Gale entered upon training he was less thanmediocre and despaired of being able to do anythingin athletics. He was not even a natural athlete, butnow, by the hard work he has done, there is no moreworthy player on either team than Gale."It seems strange that only fourteen candidateshave turned up for training, yet the team's prospectsare better for this year than they were last season.Among the fourteen are Nichols, Gale, Prescot,Chace, Speer, Mc Gil livr ay, Atkinson, Vaughan, Logie, Webster and Pike, of last year's team. Staggand Conover are the only men who batted and ranfor the glory of the orange last year who will not tryit again this spring. . Several freshmen are trying forplaces on the nine. Coacher Stagg gets his men outin the afternoon at the gymnasium from 2 to 4 o'clock.There they rehearse a daily play of running, basesliding, batting and throwing. The number of candi­dates is small, but the quality is fine, and the contestfor the team place will be none the less interesting.N ow that a fine athletic field lies in a stone's throw of 'the gymnasium, baseball promises to be much betterattended this spring.I t is not in accordance with the pol icy of the U ni­versity at present to enter any league. Possibly anarrangement may be made with Lake Forest andNorthwestern universities for a series of footballgames and track contests at Tattersall's. Stagg isvery anxious that some scheme may be formed forplaying football all winter just as he expects to playbaseball all summer. If the arrangement with theother two colleges cannot be brought about, a contestbetween the eleven of the Chicago Athletic Cluband of the University would be agreeable to him.Captain Allen does not favor a league. He approvesan arrangement by which an annual game of baseballand of football can be played between the universitiesof Michigan and Chicago.Meeting of the Students.By order of the Council the chapel exercises willbe henceforth omitted each Wednesday, the severalschools of the University meeting on that day of theweek with the respective Administrative Board at12:30 p. m., Clzujel, Cobb Lecture Hall, namely:1.

Vast as are the fundsof Harvard, she is to let go at the end of the academicyear, two professors and. four instructors. The dis­missal that will strike Harvard men wi th the greatestastonishment is that of Professor White, one of the oldest professors in the college, who h as been deanand registrar, arid was regarded as a harvard Profes­sor for life. He is an excellent teacher of the old­fashioned method, the method of thirty years ago;but Harvard, in its methods as well as in its policy,turns to new things. Five of the six dismissed instruct­ors are Harvard graduates; Prof. Nash, of the classof '56; Prof. White, '50; Mr. Bendelari, '74; Mr.Huntington, '8r; Mr. Harris, '84, The sixth is S. S.Curry, instructor in elocution. It might be said inexplanation of Harvard's need of retrenchment thatwhatever her need in certain departments or herwealth in others, she is not at liberty to divert fundsfrom prescribed and restricted uses.To Ye Fair Maid Kitty.'Tis a pityThat a dittyShould be writ by one unskilled,But dear KittieYou're so prettyThat my heart with rhyme is filled.This is why, dear,That I try hereTo express my thoughts of you,Hoping my dearThrough your eye clearTo affect your heart so true.You may read itLittle heed itCast it scornfully aside,But indeed KitIf you need itLet Love conquer foolish Pride.To your bright eyeLet the light flyFrom your laughing soul, love-lit,And you might tryWith a light sighJust to think of me a bit.With your blue eyesSuch a true prizeAs yourself was never seen,Bird for you criesFlow'rs for you riseAs their mistress glides between.For your sweet wayAt your feet theyOffer homage to their queen,All the fleet dayStill entreat theyThat you stay with them 'till e'en.So fair maidenBe not staid whenTrue heart offers praise to you,Boys have made menYouth will fade thenAnd the debts of life be due.But if everRainy weatherShould o'ercast our future life,May we neverFriendship severBu t together bear t he strife.!vI. L. J-UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLYoI\lumni Notes.Prof. Edson S. Bastin, , 67, has accepted and en­tered upon his work as Professor of Materia Medicain the Philadelphia School of Pharmacy.This is the position held so long by the late Dr.Maisch, who was perhaps the most prominent teacherand authority in his line in the United States, andthat Philadelphia should call Prof. Bastin to succeedso' prominent a man in the duties of the chair ofMateria Medica, is not only flattering to his reputa­tion as a scholar and a teacher, but is an honor to theUniversity of Chicago, and to its Alumni of formeryears, who will rejoice in his success though it beChicago's loss.Eugene Parsons, '83, announces a course of sixevening lectures on Tennyson's In Memoriam, to bedelivered at All Souls' Church in Oakwood Boulevard,on Thursday evenings, beginning January 25th.
