II, No. 30.CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, MAY 10, 1894.THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE·COXEY ARMY ..It is not uncommon nowadays to hear peoplelament that they were not born into one of thosesti1/'ring times of the past when history was making.Ii Ah, then it was glorious to be alive," they say.But here we are now set down into these prosy times,when nothing to speak of is happening. So it appeared to men in the days of Luther, and so peoplehave thought in every age. We lose all perspective when we turn our eyes on the present. Weare prone to think that Luther and such historicalcharacters stood out to the eyes of their own generation, as they stand out from the pages of historyto us. But it was not so. They were but menamong men. The significance of their lives wasungrasped, and the times were as "prosy" then asnow.We think of history as existi ng only in the past.We look with indifference on dramatic and significant events in our own time, which is fairly electric with the atmosphere of uncertainty and revolution, a time perhaps more significant than any inthe past, and judge them of little importance.Thus it has always been, and therefore, as a constant warning, Johns Hopkins University has caused to be written over her portals and inscribed onher official publications, the well known saying ofEdward A. Freeman: "History is past politics; politics is present history." How vividly are thesetrite generalizations emphasized by some currenthappenings.For several years the papers have been filledwith accounts of class conflicts, which grow dailyin magnitude and frequency. This conflict manifests itself chiefly in great strikes, attended not infrequently with riot, anarchy, and bloodshed. Greatpopulistic political movements have also swept overthe land to the discomfiture of the old parties, and,as in Kansas and Colorado; to the misgovernmentand disgrace of the State. And during the last fewmonths, amazed Europe could see silent determined crowds blocking the streets of Denver, armedwith dynamite and bristling with rifles and gatlingguns; angry miners threatening life and property inCripple Creek; all South Carolina in arms; whilelast Friday's paper would startle them with the information that "6,000 miners are marching on Toluca. And accompanying this all, (and I have buthinted at a few of the well known events which Imight mention,) comes that strange and unparalel led movement which has spread with such amazing rapidity and assumed such gigantic proportions, theCoxey Army, -a great drama enacted before oureyes with a continent for a stage.These are not mere disconnected, unrelated,meaningless incidents. They are all the emphaticexpressions of that same growing spirit of discontent, which is manifesting itself in a thousand ways.They prophesy the end of passive endurance. Farreaching changes were never, it seems to me, moreclearly foretold in the history of the past than theyare now. To be sure Coxey's Army is silly andfoolish in the means selected; but it is none the lesssignificant thereby in what it betokens, namely,the suffering and dissatisfaction of which it is thedramatic expression. It is a sharp and clear warning of the spirit of the times. At no time beforecould such an uprising have taken place. It is anoutgrowth of peculiar and ominous conditionswhich have made it possible.Picture to yourself these hosts, numberingthemselves not by the hundreds but by the thousands,rising from every side, North, South, East and West,like locusts which darken the sun. "On to Washington" they march, treading, foot-sore and ragged,these hundreds of weary miles, leaving home andfamily and entrusting themselves to most precariouschance, plodding on through snow and rain and dustand heat, unsheltered by night, half starved, ragged,and dirty. enduring every hardship and every privation-and for what? A dull longing for relief and forwork, a confused conviction that congress could helpif it would, and 'Would were it to realize their need,drives them on in the face of all discouragement.Their lot was unendurable and a seeming way of escape opened. They fel t that they had now nothing tolose, and perhaps something to gain. When, in the history of mankind, such a conviction dawns uponmen, that they have now all to gain and nothing tolose, they are ready for change, perchance forrevolution.And yet our newspapers see in these weary,marching hordes, no food for thought, merely foodfor laughter. "A huge joke!" they chuckle. Whatstrangely sensitive risibilities do they possess andhow easily are they amused! But indeed, how superficial does such observation seem and how puerileand shallow such guffawing. It is stern pathos, andnot humor, and weak and harmless as these raggedsoldiers seem, they may be one expression of whatshould be of very serious interest to us all.2 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.They are said to be tramps. But so widespreada movement could not be of tramps. Tramps donot thus endure and persevere. Tramps do notthus bind themselves with strict regulations against drunkenness, stealing, begging and with thecarrying of fire-arms,- and enforce them. Except forthe seizure of some trains for transportation. only,their journeyings have been remarkably free fromoutrage, theft, and lawlessness of all kinds Thediscipline which they maintain, their unity of purpose, and spirit of enthusiasm and perseverance,are not such as characterize the listless, lazy tramp.Trustworthy testimony also shows that this is not acharacteristically tramp movement.Some 400 years ago, man shook off the shackles which bound his intellect and asserted his rightto, think. As a consequence of this step, manmust needs possess religious liberty, theright to worship as his own conscience dictates.As the outgrowth of intellectual and religious li berty, liberty political inevitably followed and man secured the right of self-government. Each higher attainment and each new vantage ground but enlargesour view and necessitates the next step. Democracyis not yet complete. We are now in, I firmly believe, the fourth great period of man's emancipation,his in dustrial revolution, the struggle for the recognition of man's right to his work and the fruitsthereof. . This too he will secure. What is a strikebut industrial war?Stirring times! There never was an age so stir-ring in the history of man. The air is electric withthe spirit of change and revolution in every branchof knowledge and in every walk of life. We standin the midst of falling theories and "crashingcreeds." We live in the age of induction and ev-01 uti on. Revolution has entered methods of teaching and of church work. Literature is full of thisspirit of cbange. It is a period of tearing downand building afresh, old things are passing awayand the new things rule. Life's possibilities werenever so boundless.And in the industrial and political world also,we stand, I believe, on the threshold of one of thefew great periods of history. Events of the mostprofound importance are taking pl ace. We live inthe critical and vital period of our nation's destiny.The opposing forces are coming to a head, and weare to settle the future of democracy.But the outcome is not doubtful. The past showsthat man is steadily advancing. The wheels of history do not turn backward and the next revolvingwill leave the world not as it was, nor lower, butone stage higher in its upward course.Meanwhile let the papers say less about the labor unions and Coxeyites, and more about Dives,for with him lies the decision of how these changes shall come to pass, and in his blin dness is the measure of the violence of their advent.April 30, 1894. FRANK W. WOODS.A Common Course of Study for the University Colleges.At the February meeting of the University Colleges with the Administrative Board, Dr. Harper requested that a committee be appointed by the president of the U ni versi ty College Association to consider the question of a common study as a basis forbringing about a spirit of fellowship among themembers of the University Colleges.Some effort was made by the committee to ascertain the opinions of the members, but it was necessarily a very inadequate one, owing to the lack oforganization in the colleges. The result was thefollowing report made at the last meeting on Aprilr Sth, 1894.I. Such a common course of study seems wel ladapted to form a basis upon which an active organization can be buil t, an organization that will further the college spirit and create fellowship.2. It should be required of all U niversity Col-,lege students.3. It should be d weekly exercise runningthrough the four quarters of the year and requiredthree quarters out of the four because, (I) if itwere daily for one quarter, the end in view wouldnot be accomplished, as new students are enteringand old students leaving the college every quarter;(2) if it came oftener than weekly it would interfere with the liberty of choice now allowed the student, whether required for one quarter or throughou t the year.4. The work should not be of so progressive acharacter as to impair its value to students enteringat any time.S. The courses should be in the hands of thehead professors or of men especially adapted to thecondi ti ons.6. It should be of such a nature as to be bothinteresting and desirable for a broad culture.7. It should be accompanied by credit on theUniversity record.8. Courses such as the following seem to bebest adapted to the purpose:(I) A course in Political Science, taking upcurrent questions and studying them in their practical and philosophical bearings.(2) A course in Social Science.(3) A course in Philosophy.(4) A course in English Literature whichtakes up the great poets, the master pieces, etc.(S) A course in Biblical Literature.(6) A course in Rhetorical work.9. The plans of arrangement suggest themsel ves: (a) Alternating courses running throughthe two years such as (I) and (4), (S) and (4), (2) ,UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.and (1), or (2) and (4). (b) A plan involving adifferent course each quarter and thus dividing upthe work-among the different departments.Signed: S. D. BARNES, MARY SPALDING, MyRA H. STRAWN.PAUL F. CARPENTER, dissenting.The report is now in the hands of the Administrative Board but further discussion is desired among the members of the University Colleges. Itis requested that all members be present at the nextmonthly meeting in the faculty room on Wedncsday, May 16, 1894, at 12:30 p. m.I"A Chicago Vignette.On this night in the south-bound' 'owl" car thepassengers were sitting on their shoulder-blades,with their legs sprawled out across the aisle. Theconductor, when he came through, had to step highto get over the assortment of feet. The four menwho had come aboard at Madison street, werebreathing heavily in their slumber. A yellow pennant pin bearing the initials U. of c., could be seenon their coat-lapels and one of them had somethinglike a mortar board wrapped in newspaper. Thecar bounced over a switch and aroused one of them.He opened his eyes dreamily and bestowed a friendly smile. Then, moved by one of those strange impulses for which there is no accounting, he beganto sing with a hoarse drawl:"There wer-ner three era-haws sat a-han a tre-treeAnd they-hey were bla hack as era haws could be.Said wu-hun old era-how unto-hoo his rna-hate;What sha-hall we do-hoo for gru-hub to ate."Another of the four came out of his sl umber andjoined in the second verse, which was in all respectssimilar to the first. A third man in the party, without opening his eyes or giving other warning, suddenly joined in the song and then the fourth camewith an unfinished tenor. The remaining passengers shifted in their seats and began to grumble."Don't sing, boys," said the conductor as hestepped in from the back platform."--they-hey were bla-hack as era-haws could be."That was the only response."Stop that noise.""Said wu-hun old ero-how--"The conductor gave to the leader a violent "yank"which caused him to sit on the floor. The otherthree members of the quartet arose shakily andstarted at the conductor, who backed on to theplatform. Then as they came out, one at a time,he simply threw each of them into the street, theleader being the last to go. As the car kept on itsway, the passengers could see in the dim light fromthe corner arc lamp four men gather themselves upfrom along the track and, having got together, startfor a place from which the light shone out abovethe curtain tops.-The Chicago Record. The Chair of Botany.Prof. J. T. Burrill, for several years acting regent of the University of Illinois called at the University recently on business. It is not unlikely thatProf Burrill will be an available man for the chairof Botany in the University, now that a new regenthas been chosen for the U ni versity of Illinois.Prof. Burrill is one of the recognized authorities intha t science and the chair of Botany in the U niversity of Chicago is yet to be filled. It is not likelyafter standi ng at the head of the University ofIllinois for some time that he would find it desirable toaccept a subordinate position in the same University.The only course in botany which will be offered herethis year will be given by Mr. Clark, a student. Itmight be mentioned in this connection that Mr.George E. Vincent, a fellow in social science in theUniversity of Chicago was offered the regency ofthe State University but declined to accept. Hewill go in a few weeks to Chatauqua where he willhave charge of the summer school.Kissed Lips Lose No Savour.He had loved her.

For us as students of theU niversi ty of Chicago, to choose and adopt for ourcolor, a certain shade of red, called maroon, whichnot one out of twenty of us could name with certainty, and correctly, if placed beside the crimsonof Harvard; which nine out of ten clerks would confuse, if we attempted to purchase a supply, andwhich not one of us could distinguish from crimsonif seen across the Athletic Field, is, I think perfectlyabsurd. "Maroona est delenda."Second:-A mass meeting can do nothing, legitimately, but decide what its will is and how to express it. This is usually done by the adoptionof resolutions. If we consider, for a moment, thatsuch a meeting has further powers what an endlessconfusion and difficulty it may involve us in. Wewould become the laughing stock of the whole country; at any time the dissatisfied minority may call sucha meeting and select another color; if not at present,even at some future date, an entirely differentbody of students may meet and by a voteof a mere majority present, decree that a differentcolor shall represent the University of Chicago.From these two points it must be clear to all, thatwhat has been done can not be considered definite,but that further action in the matter is necessary.This brings us to the third point:Third:- What we need is a means for ascertaining what the true will of the student body is; notonly in this matter but in all things, which mayarise, in which the voice of the students is called for.We also wish to settle this matter once for all, andso provide that to change the color of the U ni versity of Chicago, shall be as difficul t as it is to amendthe constitution of the United States. To accomplish this end we must organize. There should bea "Students Organization," which by its constitution would prescribe, how such .questions, as theone before us should be settled and how, in all matters in which the whole student body is interested,the voice of that body must be ascertained. Therewould be of course an article, defining the methodby which the action of this organization could beamended, and therefore we could make the difficultyof changing the color as grc:at as we wished.I might add as an alternative, if the idea of anorganization does not satisfy, that two meetings beheld; the first to hear all nominations of colors, thesecond to vote on the choice. One week should intervene between the meetings, and during that timethe different colors nominated should be on exhibition with full intormation regarding them either posted or published. The vote should then be submitted to the Board of Trustees, for according toDr. Harper, the precedent has been established ofhaving that Board agree to what shall be the U n iversi ty color.I well remember that an organization similar tothe one I have spoken of, failed in an attempt at existence last year, but there was not the need thenthat there is now and which has grown to a necessity.The election in such an organization would surelyafford us an annual treat.W. WATT ATWOOD.The Wisconsin Game.It was a great game. Everybody said so, andeverybody that was anybody was there. The greatWisconsin team was there but after the third inning they quit being "in it" and only played onfor the sake of past victories and victories to come."We can't lose, unless we throw the game," saidone of the Madison team just before the game, andmany were fain to believe it. However a fewdoubted and they are glad they did. At six o'clockthe "I told you so's" were in the majority. Everybody knew we'd win. And why did we? The story is told below:The game was called at three o'clock but it did notbegin until four, and then the sun was shining froma blue sky as Arms stepped up to the bat. A murmur of excitement went up from the crowd as twostrikes were called on the batman who took his baseon balls. Then Lyman struck out and left theplate for Williams, who knocked a fly out in centerfield and Hering marked it as it fell. Arms wasaround at third and when the ball dropped intoHerings hand ran in for the first score. Dillonwent out at first. Hering came to the bat for the'varsity. He was out on a ground hit at first.Then Grant was given his base on balls. The un-der-graduates hooted. Nichols came up to theplate as they cheered. Nichols replied with a twobagger. The ball went past the center fielder, thethird baseman let it go .by and Nichols scored.Everybody went wild.The visitors scored in the third by Karel's hit,his stolen base, his advance by Arms' sacrifice andLyman's hit. The score was 2 and 2.Two were out when Nichols came to bat in thethird inning. He hit the ball squarely and had thesatisfaction of seeing it sail merrily for a three bagger but in trying to make a .hom e run he wascaught sliding in to the plate. The fourth seemedabout to be a fatal inning for the 'varsity with Williams, Gould and Wynne on the bases and Kummel at the bat. Two were out and two balls hadbeen called on Kummel when he made the thirdfly out to McGillivray in the right field. The 'varsity, in the fourth, got a safe margin by a trio ofUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.runs. In the fifth Nichols lined out another threebagger and came in on the same costly error ofArms which let Adkinson to first, who scored onPike's hit. In the sixth and seventh the Universitygot two earned runs, made on Nichols' and Grant'ssingles, aided by Webster's two bagger. Theeighth was a reverse of fortune, the Wisconsinshelping themselves to four to the Chicago's three.The crowd was an enthusiastic one and cheerfully received the "guys" of a party of Rush medics who spoke vaguely of "17 to I" while the refrain' 'saw my leg off" was sung by a picked chorus of one hundred students with deep pathos.Nichols' work at the bat was truly wonderfu 1.His record of two three baggers, one three baggerand one single should be set in gold upon a background of ivory. Hering, Grant and McGillivraymade some pretty catches of long flies. Pike'scatching and throwing to bases did him credit. Hehas made wonderful progress during the few weeksthat he has practiced catching. For WisconsinGould's work behind the bat was perfect. Williamsat first played a fine game and batted well.The score is as follows:Wisconsin I 0 I 0 0 0 0 4 0 - 6U. of C '2 0 0 3 2 6 0 3 ,x,- 16Commons to be Reopened.The Commons will be reopened next Mondaymorning.

W. P. Kay and H. P. Pearsons represented Northwestern, A. A. Jackson andMr. Hunt were the delegates from Lake Forest,and Capt. Harry C. Holloway and J. E. Raycroftwere representatives of the U. of C.It was decided to hold the games on FridayMay 25, at the grounds corner 35th. and Wentworth �venue, probably. The inter-collegiate rulesof the eastern colleges were adopted with the following exceptions: The tbree mile walk, the five milerun and throwing the fifty-six pound weight werestricken from the list of events, and in their placeswere put the standing high jump, the one lap bicy- de race and a one mile team race. The latter willbe run by three from each university. Mr. J. E.Raycroft was appointed chairman of the committeeon arrangements.The Contest at Madison.The U ni versi ty of Chicago entered the are na tocompete for oratorical honors against the other largecolleges and universities of the west for the firsttime last Friday night at Madison, Wis. We wentto the contest with the confidence that we wouldhave no reason to be ashamed of a comparison inthe line of student oratory.It is a matter about which we can congratulateour representative, Mr. Lake, that he received thehighest mark in delivery, which was well earned:for no one of the other orators exhibited the natur-E. M. LAKE.alness, grace and strength in delivery which Mr. Lakedid.The contest on the whole was good, and the onewho received first did not so far outstrip the othersthat it was evident to the audience to whom theprize would fall till the announcement had beenmade.In the rotation of offices Chicago this year wasentitled to secretary and Mr. W. O. Wilson waselected to that position.The contest next year goes to Iowa City and theyear after that comes to Chicago. The only unfortunate feature of the contest this year was that thestudent body of Madison failed to give the supportthey should have given and the "gate receipts" fell$ I 60.00 short of paying expenses and the League wasobliged to assess each local association $25.00 tomake up the deficiency. 56 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKL v.but a few students are present at the University.As many intimated it would be, it was a meetingwhich was attended mainly by those who favoredmaroon.

The dissatisfaction whichwas largely felt toward orange is now felt toward er. N either have received the sanction of theboard of trustees and it is to be hoped that neitherwill until there is a settlement between the two rival factions. The students will accept the decisionof the trustees as final and the trustees in turn willconsider the opinion of a majority of students beforea selection is made. In the interim which willelapse before the trustees meet there will no doubtbe many' 'official color meetings."

At this meeting it is expected theW. C. P. A., will become a better organization.The needs of an organization of this kind must beapparent to every editor of a western college paperand to make the Press Association a success the assistance of every paper is needed. At the last meeting held at the University Hotel on Congress Street,representatives of The Daily Cardin al, CollegeChronicle, DePauw Monthly, DePauw Weekly, Themaroon. Two conventions were called during the light; a shade which can be worn equally well bypast week. At the first the followers of scarlet blonde and brunette, which will look well in neck-were a majority over the admirers of green and red,and gray and red, and other combinations. Thescarlet was adopted as the "University color" by avote of 78 to 45. Then the disgruntled studentswho objected to scarlet called a meeting for Saturday and after a strong opposition maroon wasadopted as the University color. The question nowarises, what is the University coior? Which meeting was empowered to select a color? The firstmeeting was said to be semi-official. A committeehad been appointed to select colors and combinations and present them to the meeting. This wasdone and the meeting having duly considered votedfor scarlet. The students w�o were not present at Adelbert, Aegis, Illzni, Pegasus, Earlhamite, U. ofthe meeting were expected to accept this color, and 111l. Daily and Kenyon Collegian were present. Atdid until a few disappointed souls got together and that meeting the WEEKLY was admitted to memberarranged a dissenting committee which led to the, ship. If there are other members of the associationsecond meeting. N ow was this second assembly they should notify any member of the executiveempowered to overthrow the vote of the 'first meet- committee. This committee is made up of theing? No one knows. The meeting was called for Earth amite, Pegasus, Illini. and the U. of C. Weeklya holiday, Saturday afternoon, at an hour when The secretary of the association is the editor of theUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.DePauw 111ortthly. Since the last meeting that paper has discontinued publication and Mr. Day of theEarlhamite, with whom we have corresponded doesnot know where the minutes of the '93 meeting are tobe found. These minutes are needed immediately asthey contain the record of the speakers and subjectsfor the coming meeting. The DePauw Weekly may beable to give us the necessary information. At thesession last year it was resolved that each paper inthe association send to the '94 meeting both the retir.ing editor (the editor who has served during thepresent scholastic year) and the editor elect. Thisshould be done in every case if possible. It wouldbe extremely gratifying to the. executive committeeif in addition to the old and new editors other members of the editorial boards of our contemporarieswere to be present. A newspaper man will be invited to address the evening session which will beheld at the. University. Papers wishing to becomemembers of the association should send delegates tothe meeting. Further announcements will be madenext week.A PHOTOGRAPH of Snell Hall will be giventhis week for twenty cents and one couponif presented at the WEEKLY office before Mayzoth, The coupon may be found on the page VIof advertising. The undergraduates who haveroomed in Snell Hall during the past year, and thewomen who lived within its walls during the springquarter of '93 will want this picture, and in antici-. pation of a large sale we have ordered a large stock.Already we have received many advance orders forthese photographs which evidences the college spiritof the undergraduate. While we did not expect aslarge a sale of the Foster Hall pictures as thosewhich preceded it we certainly did expect a bettersale than has resulted. The Foster photograph givesa beautiful view of the building and grounds. It isperhaps the most perfect of all the photographs andwe had hoped for it a greater popularity. TheSnell picture was taken when about twenty of itsresidents were in front. Clip your coupons andbring with twenty cents to the WEEKLY and receivethis fine photograph. 'Five cents extra if to be sentby mail.WE WOULD have bet on the scarlet if theorange had to go. It is the color of the gay.and the beautiful, that shows the richest onthe field, best on woman's dress or in flags and ribons or in the suits of the players, the color that is most brilliant in decoration. The gay tournamentsof the knights of old were flaming with the presenceof scarlet in the cloth of noble houses and the cos-tumes of fair ladies. The most picturesque figurein the medieval painting is the herald with thescarlet coat of arms, and all the dress of knights andladies of picturesque times were blazoned with scarlet. Nor is scarlet undignified; for who will notremember our good Dr. Lawrence in hIs imposingCambridge gown of brilliant scarlet. Who is so unzestheti c as to say that some varieties of pure scarlet cannot be obtained that would look pretty in athletic suits? What more attractive than scarlet in thelight ga rment of the crack athlete? We are loth to seethis most highly chromatic and this brightest andprettiest of colors traded for this purple brown, thisdull, non-luminous crimson, this bad, negro imita-. tion of Harvard's rich crimson.THE spectators at the Madison game last Saturday had good cause for complaint againstthe management. The long wait before thegame began was particularly tiresome to the people who had been guileless enough to believe theannouncement made on the bills that play wouldbegin promptly at three o'clock. There was no excuse for the delay. The grounds were in gqod condition and a few minutes practice was all that theteams should have required. Instead of this anhour's practice was indulged in while the crowdwhich had assembled promptly at three o'clock wascompelled to sit in the "grand st�nd" or bleachersand anxiously watch the rain laden clouds come up.In future the arrangements should be made so thatwhen games are advertised to begin at a certainhour they should begin promptly. There is no excuse for delay.FAREWELL to the fair name of the Universityof Chicago if its men who have graduated from.her walls are to go out in the world commit-ting such acts of vandalism and hoboism as thatwitnessed on the field at the Armour game. Wecan only hope that the culture shown in kickingdown the field fence in order to make an exit wasacquired by our graduate student of last year atother schools than this. The WEEKLY would suggest that the three offenders-who would have received a chastisement, Thursday, atthe hands of anenraged and outraged set of varsity men, had theybeen outsiders,-be in future expelled and exiledfrom the varsity field. We withhold their names7The Burglar.John Lu'nd , the burglar who was caught in theDivinity Dormitory some weeks ago by W. C.Chalmers, was tried last week and sentenced to oneyear and a half in the penitentiary. Lund pleadedguilty. Miss Wallin testified that a diamond pinand a diamond, found on the person of the defendant belonged to her and Chalmers testified that hehad caught Lund in the act of burglary. TheJudge, after examining into the character of the defendant, reduced the term of imprisonment to oneyear.The story of John Lund is a pitiful one. Heleft his home at Braunsburg, East Prussia, sevenmonths ago in company with about 800 other emigrants. He arrived in this country without theleast. knowledge of English, expecting to findimmediate employment. He left behind him a wifeand two small children. The season of financialstringency prevented his obtaining anything to do.He began to despair. Hunger, and anxiety on account of his family drove him to burglary. Before he was caught at the University he was suspected, and stolen clothing had been found in hispossession but no case could be brought againsthim. When he was arrested at the University he. had a pin and a ring belonging to Miss' Wallin, valued at one hundred and fifty dollars, some silvertrinkets be�()nging to Miss Maynard, and some clothing. Those interested in the action against Lundhave written to his wife in Germany to ascertainher condition and to render her assistance if necessary.8 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLYaeven while we realize that we are committing a faul tin not exposing them.THE VICTORY over the Madison team lastSaturday was a glorious one. Our teamplayed a game of which they may well beproud. With Nichols at the helm we may expectto see the team guided safely into port even thoughthe rocks which loom up before us in the shape ofMichigan and Illinois are treacherous. Nichol'swork in the box deserves the highest praise. Hepitched a game which would have done credit to aprofessional player of long practice. His supporttoo, was excellent, the catching of Pike deservingspecial mention. Illinois is to play here tomorrowand if the fates are propitious another grand victory will be ours. A large crowd should be presentto cheer our great ball team.THE WEEKLY believes that a majority of thestudents are opposed to maroon as the U niversity color. We think it advisable that thequestion of a color be reconsidered and make thefollowing propositron to the students. Weask that every student send to the WEEKLYhi s choice of a University color as soon as possi ble. The result will be printed in the next issueof the WEEKLY, or if the votes are not all in at thattime they will be announced two weeks from thistime. This is an easy way to solve the problemand we ask that every student carefully consider andsend in a vote. It is important that every studentvote.THE WEEKLY would like to have more contributions of humorous verse. Single stanzasare the best. The talent for that sort of composition, and it is not a mean kind of talent either,if there is any in the U niversi ty, has so far beenhidden under a bushel. Such stuff livens up thepaper and all will be published that has a point toit visible to the naked eye. Short humorous paragraphs are also interesting. Let the future paragr�phist for one of our big Chicago dai_lies comeforth and let the WEEKLY discover him.MR. E. M. LAKE, the representative of thisU ni versity at the meeting of the Northern'Oratorical League held at Madison Fridayevening last, has the proud honor of being awardedfirst place in delivery. The loss of the first prize inthe league is thus tempered by the reflection thatat least we have a representa�ive of whom we maywell be proud. Sou th Side School.The students of the South Side school, feelingthe necessity of l i terary culture outside of the regular school work, have organized a literary and debating society which meets every Friday evening atthe school.On Friday evening April 27 the first programwas given and despite the inclement weather manyof the members were present and a very enjoyableprogram was listened to with interest. w.
