II, No. 37.SOMETHING ABOUT COLLEGE PAPERS.The best means of intimate communications ofthought between colleges lies in the 'exchange- ofmagazines or papers. The general tone of a col­lege magazine seems to an outsider to be the gen­eral atmosphere of the college. A person oncesaid to me:"Ah! you are from Vassar; then you know theVassar Miscellany.""Yes," I said, "I know it very well and I amvery much interested in its welfare. What do youthink of it in general?""Oh!" he replied, "it teems with school-girlsentimentality; that is, the poetry does. You girlswere all sentimental, weren't you? Why, we fel­lows at 'Boston Tech' used to split our sides overthose effusions.""Indeed, but did you read the prose?" Iasked."Oh no! no time for prose, never thought ofthat, not interested in prose, you know."There is a moral in this. The ideal collegemagazine will exist only where there is no dangerof running to sentimentality as at Vassar, or fall­ing below the standard of literary good taste as at, 'Boston Tech." .* *The college paper as I have known it has, inbut few cases, come up to my idea of what a col­lege paper should be, and it seems strange that inso many of our universities and colleges of firstrank, the work done is but second-class. It is dif­ficul t to venture even a guess as to the cause ofthis. It may be mismanagement, it may be want ofenthusiasm among the students who really can dothe work, or it may be due to other things. I havekno�n students in more than one college who couldwrite exceptionally well, but never had one oftheir efforts published, because they were neverasked to contribute. A college paper should reach,in some way or the other, the whole student body,and this often is not the case, for obvious reasons.Until such is the case, various oneside d publ ica­tions will continue to circulate throughout our col­lege communities, doing some good, little harm,and playing a passive part.* * **The coupon craze has reached the University.For the last six months, as you know, the leading"This is nol an advertisement, papers of our city have been offering books and al­bums, photographs and what-not to such of theirreaders as were energetic enough to cut the couponfrom each day's paper and take them to the paper'spu blishing house, and patience enough to stand inline there while the stock on hand fast disappearedas those in front were served. The books and al­bums offered were valuable and interesting. Cou­pon "fiends" became as numerous as Charlie's aunt.I sincerely hoped that the time was near at handwhen I would no more have to answer the question:"Are you saving your coupons?" But the hour ofdeliverance is not yet. The WEEKLY has entered thelist. It fittingly closes the' 'season" with the bestoffer yet made. The views of our buildings in itsdistribu tion are excellent, and worth fully threetimes the very reasonable price asked. The WEEK­LY to the front. More power to it.* * *I t seems to me that the aim of a college paper,intended for the general reader, should be to pleaserather than to instruct to any great extent. Aboveall things, the editorials should be bright and inter­esting, and should discuss the various current ev­ents of university life. All articles of a heavy ortechnical character should be left to the departmen­tal journals, and as most subjects outside of univ­ersity circles are amply treated in the daily papers,there is little cause for comment upon these. Whenone picks up his college paper, he does so, not withthe expectation of plodding through some long sci­entific article, or the details of some political in­trigue, but rather with the intention of brighteningup on university affairs, and of learning what is go-ing on directly around him. .* * *What I have to say regarding "College Papers"can be put into a very few sentences. At this age,when the will of the majority is usually the predom­inant will, an honest statement of one's personalopinion should be of val ue, to those, aiming to sat­isfy the demand, of as great a number as possible,in this case to increase the circulation of a collegepaper. From my experience, I have learned, thatall I want of a college paper, is that in it, I shallfind a brief account of all events of any importancethat take place at the institution. In other words,that it will keep me informed upon college affairs.I seldom care to read an art cle, in such a paper,2 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.of any great length, and always pass over any putin purely for their literary value, or for the sake ofpreaching to us. If the work of students is used,and I would allow this occasionally, to fill up space,if the work was especially wonderful, I would pre­fer having the author's name given, for that wouldsecure a few readers among his friends at least.Then special attention should be given to athleticsand social events, with the aim in view, of encour­aging a strong college spirit.Signor Salvatore Tomaso.The splendid success of the University Mando­lin Club is due almost entirely to Signor Tomaso.Last fall he offered his services to the Universityand organized theMan dol i n Clubwhich is associatedwi th the Glee Cluband the SecondMandolin C I u b,which is composedof both ladies andgentlemen. He hascontinued to giveinstruction to theClubs until thepresent time. Be­sides devoting histime to our musicalin terest he has fur­nished instruments,also gratis, to allthose who wishedSIGNOR SALVATORE TOMASO. to join the Clubswho did not possess instruments.,His excellence as an instructor is amply shownby his success with the Mandolin Club, who, inmost part last fall knew nothing of their instru­ments. As a musician he is well known and hisorchestra is the finest mandolin o.rchestra in thecountry. Signor Tomaso expects to continue his.connection with the Mandolin Clubs next fall.What Wealthy nen Give to Schools.In 1847 Abbott Lawrence gave $50,000 to Har­vard, and it was then said to be the largest amountever given at one time during the lifetime of thedonor to any public institution in America. TheReconstruction period, so fitly consummated atChicago last year, is a marked epoch for college en­dowments. Between. the years of 1860 and 1882the colleges of this country gained in wealth anamount larger than their entire val nation in 1859.More than $50,000,000 were bestowed in thesetwenty-two years upon our educational establish­ments, and $35,000,000 of this amount were dona- ted in the ten years between 1870-'80. Johns Hop­kins endowed with $3,000,000 the University bear­ing his name. Mrs. Valeria G. Stone of Massachu­setts, distributed more than $1,000,000 among var­ious institutions of learning. Asa Packer foundedLehigh University, and Ezra Cornell the U niver­sity at Ithaca, N. Y., which bears his name. Thenames of Matthew Vassar, Sophia Smith and HenryF. Durant demand more than a passing mention.Each of these pioneers in the cause of higher educa­tion for women made their beliefs permanent byfounding female colleges, and Henry W. Sage pro­vided for special instruction for women in CornellUniversity. But the ideas of generosity have wid­ened with the process of the suns, and the last tenyears have witnessed a far more liberal endowmentof educational centers than the period just referredto.Mr. Rockefeller's original offer of $600,000 to­ward the resuscitation of the defunct Chicago U ni­versity was made in 1886, and the total sum hechiefly, and others in lesser amoun ts since bestowed,is more than $7,000,000. Mr. C. T. Yerkes gave$500,000 for the observatory and telescope, Mr.Marshall Field gave the University lands, and ano­ther $500,000 was bequeathed from the estate ofWilliam ,B. Ogden for the School of Science, theReynolds estate adding $250,000 more. Here then,and at Palo Alto also, is a University practicallymade to order. Senator I Stanford's gifts to PaloAlto amount to more than $10,000,000. By the gi­gantic power- of wealth wisely used he has createdthe Oxfcrd or Yale of the West upon his fruit ranch.The quiet man of affairs has put all future civiliza­tion under bonds of obligation to him for this singu­larly noble achievement, the phenomenal gift of allglvmg. Mr. James J. Hill, of St. Paul, has gi ven$1,000,000 for the erection of a Roman theologicalseminary beneath the superintendence of his friend,Archbishop Ireland. Mr. J. S. Pillsbury presentedthe city of Minneapolis with $150,000 for a sciencehall in the U ni versity. Mr. George A. Pillsburygave another $150,000 toward the Pillsbury Aca­demy. Mr. James Lick provided the observatorywith its mammoth telescope, situated at Mt. Ham­ilton (California,) and named in honor of the donor.Dr. Cogswell bestowed $ 1,000 for the San Fran­cisco Polytechnic School. Miss Mary E. Garrett'scheck for $350,000 was recently handed to thetrustees of Johns Hopkins to complete the sum nec­essary to open to women the medical departmentof that U niversity.The Girard College at Phi ladelphia has been toolong before the American public to need any spec­ial introduction here. It cost nearly $2,000,000 tofound this institution, The Drexel Institute is thelatest descendant of Girard, and perhaps it is thewisest and best of Philadelphia's many philanthrop-UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.ies. The various departments of PennsylvaniaUniversity owe a great deal of their existence andefficiency to prominent Philadelphians. Mr. Lenning,for example, gave $750,000 to the scientific school,and the late Mr. George Pepper left more than$1,000,000 to the schools and charities of the city.The Western Reserve U ni versity has founded a medi­cal college with $250,000 given for that purpose byMr. J. L. Wood, of Cleveland, Ohio. William F.Clark followed with $100,000 for the Woman'sCollege of the same institution. The CincinnatiUniversity was the gift of Mr. McMicken, who be­queathed almost $ 1 ,000,000 for its support. Mr.Armour has given his institute to Chicago, a worthypeer of the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn and theCooper Union in New York Mr. Armour's giftwill have cost him about $3,000,000 by the time itcompletes its founder's purpose. Bishop Hurst'sscheme for a National (The American) U ni versityat Washington is well under way. A donation of$100,000 is just reported. It should be observedthat the monetary estimate of these numberless en­dowments is only a partial one; the contagion ofgenerosity has caused a leading offer such as Mr.Rockefeller's to Chicago, to become the precurserof far greater sums. The timeliness, the heal thyspirit, the sanity of view, which has prompted suchdonations is even more admirable than their magni­tude.-Rev. S. P. Cadman, in the Chautauquan forMarch.The College Note Book.I have just finished the reading of a book whichhas for its purpose the' 'amusement and instruct­ion" of its reader by illustrating the varied ways inwhich a person may say the thing that is intended,in the wrong way, as this sentence I am writingshows one example of a common form, the mis­placement of phrases. On the title page is a sam­ple of the sayings, in the sign: "Don't go else­where to get robbed-step right in here." Bullsand blunders are then defined, the examples mak­ing a book of two hundred eighty-five pages, theresult of much careful editing. When one beginsreading, the way seems clear, and quaint blundershave the joke marked with italics, but at the end,there have been shown so many ways of being re­diculous that it becomes a task to write clearly,the desire to make mistakes is 'so strong. Onequotation from Steele is given: "If you evercome within a mile of my house, I hope you willstop there." The editor shows by example, thatthe Irish are not alone in the perpetration of the"bull," by showing the errors of others, especiallythe slips of the French.-)!- * *At the Japanese village, Midway, little woodenboxes were offered at several times their value. 3They were neatly made, with a novel arrangementof draws, and so, in a moment when my fancyovercame my better judgment, I paid the priceasked. The box is not a very remarkable thirig,nor is the tray that lies beside it, nor yet, the rosejar on the little shelf, but they are "Japanese," youknow, so no cri ticism need be made. Why does anAmerican choose wares offoreign make? Can we notequal or surpass the workmanship of other peoples?Can it be that we have become such a matter-of­fact race that we have no time to make the usefulornamental? Cheapness is a bane, a blight.'Twould cost a penny more to make the thing pret­ty, so let it stay plain. Art is only for those whoare able to afford it. (And most of that very poorart.) Books are well enough if only the cover isfirmly fastened, and the type not too poor. Scottreads as well in a cover of flaming red as in an ed­ition de luxe. First use, then beauty.* * *Arsenic is, as we all know, an active poison. Iam going to show that this fact does not concernonly the professional chemist but everybody. Arse­nic occurs in many substances, particularly in thosechemicals that are prepared from sulphur or sulphuricacid. The other mineral acids contain it almost always,unless they have been purified. Arsenic poisoningmay sometimes result from the fact that aniline col­ors and other colors not unfrequently contain thatpoison also. We find. cakes and other eatables,wall paper, toys and other things which are color­ed with such colors. The quantities of arsenic thatthey contain is usually very small, yet enough 'tobe injurious, since the hundredth part of a' grainmay do harm, if taken repeatedly. Those colorsshould, therefore, not be sold in the public market.* * *The locomotive whistles, the train stops, theconductor enters the car and shouts "Firenze."This is the Italian name for Florence, meaning the"flower city." We alight and take our quarters inone of the hotels on the Piazza Vecchia near by.After eating our lunch we go sight-seeing along theVia delle Belle Donne, which is a narrow street,paved with cement. Soon we find ourselves in alarger and beautiful street. This is the Via Torna­buoni. In front of us is a huge and massive build­ing, the Palazzo Strozzi. It belongs to the ancientfamily of the Principi Strozzi. In front of. thebuilding is a flower stand. It is here where I haveseen the most beautiful flowers that I ever met.There must indeed be some reason why Florenceis called the' 'flower city."The announcement has been made public of theengagement of Prof. A.

On Sundaythe President gave the last word of advice to a de­parting band of graduates and on Monday thedeans and instructors welcomed the newly arrivedmatriculates. The close connection of the farewellsand greetings has tempered the sadness of the oneand increased the heartiness of the other. So ifwith a song of regret we penned a valedictory inour last issue, it is with sincere cordiality that wegreet those who are with us this quarter for the firsttime. The summer session has doubtless attractedhere many students from other institutions, who willnot stay beyond the summer months. We ventureto hope tha� they will feel as thoroughly at homeamong us as in their former colleges and universi­ties; that they will feel, while they are here, thatChicago is in reality a cherishing mother. The courses of instruction, the library, the laboratories,the campus, they are yours, make the most ofthem.But while you are receiving from the University thebest she has to offer you, we trust we will not bedisappointed in expecting a large return. TheUniversity is a rapidly developing institution, tak­ing on daily a broader, a more varied life. Thestudents during this term will leave an impress onthe life here. You come from institutions of learn­ing scattered throughout this expansive country.Your influence on the life and institutions of thisU niversi ty for later times cannot be small. It i c;with this conviction of the reciprocal advantages toyou and to the University that will result from thesummer's work that we gladly receive you and ex­tend our heartiest wishes for your happiness whileat Chicago.THE past convocation must ever be a memorableone in the history of the University. We be­lieve that never before has a president of aninstitution of learning announced at anyone timethat a million dollars had 'been given it by its friendsand. promoters. Unbounded thanks for this gift,which is almost beyond the power of adjectives todescribe, is due to Mr. Ryerson who made the firstsubscription and to Mr. Rockefeller who so largelyaugmented it. At the same time we feel no lessgrateful to the other donors, many of whom havealways been at hand with an open purse when theUniversity has been in need. Of scarcely less in­terest was the dedication of the Ryerson PhysicalLaboratory, which has truthfully been called ('themost beautiful laboratory in the world." With itsmagnificent instructional force and its substantialequipment, to which additions will be rapidly made,the department of physics will set a high standardfor the other departments of the University. Oneof the happiest incidents connected with the convo­cation was the presentation of_ Mr. Rockefeller'spicture.. It was highly fitting that this tributeshould be paid the founder of the University, butwe shall not be satisfied until side by side with thispicture are hung the portraits of the many otherfriends of the University who with purse and brainhave aided in its marvellous growth. We hope, in­deed, that, some room or building perhaps, may beespecially devoted to thi� purpose. Besides theeducational importance of the convocation, it was anexpresssion also of one of the most encouragingphases of the present time, the giving, generouslyUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.and cheerfully, by men of wealth to institutions forthe promotion of learning and culture. A wordmust be said of the educational value of the convo­cation. The University did not escape the effectsof the strike. The absence of the convocation ora­tor, Prof. Mendenhall was; great disappointment.The uncertain train service too affected the size ofthe physical conference, but with all these disap­pointments, the convocation will certainly arousea keener enthusiasm for sound learning here and itsinfluence in this direction will be felt at other in­stitutions. It has been, as we have said, a mem­orable convocation arid may well be used as a stand­ard of comparison for future meetings.THE base ball season is closed. Games will beplayed this summer but it will be under a newregime. The victories won by '94 have beenfew but the defeats have in the mam been by soclose a margin as to be robbed of the venom of thesting. Captain Nichols has won the hearty appro­bation of the University by his splendid playingand management of the team in the midst of dis­couragement and defeat. Our opponents havejustly admired his brilliant work in the box and atthe bat. About the general playing of the team,we have had our say when it might have been ofavail, and we are not now disposed to find faultwith what is past, but we must all feel that if thefielders had made less than from nine to twelve er­rors every game, Chicago would have had a win-.ning team this year. The wisdom of electing acaptain this year seems to us questionable and weare a little suspicious of the patriotism of a choicewhich has fallen to one of the weakest players ofthe nine. There should be no delay now in form­ing the athletic association. The public senti­ment of the students demands it. Chicago willnever take its deserved place in intercollegiate ath­letics until such an association is formed. Mr.Stagg's team this summer should receive hearty en­couragement. It seems too bad that in a schoolas large as this is, there are so few candidates forpositions on the team. Good ball players rail atthe defeats of the Varsity but refuse to come outand practice. The athletic spirit is much betterthis year than it was last, but it will never be satis­factory until strong teams are put in the fied aridin order to accomplish this all the athletes connect­ed with the University should work loyally and un­ceasingly for its supremacy in contests of muscle ,and skill. They would be well repaid too for thei rexertions in the bettered health and strengthenedphysiques that would result from the exercise.ALTHOUGH the election of Abells to thecaptaincy of the next season's ball nine wassomewhat of a surprise to the majority ofthe undergraduates, nevertheless the choice of thenine was generally well received by the athletes ofthe University and looked upon with considerablefavor by the athletic management. N otwi thstand­ing the fact that Abells is only an average playerhis steadiness on the bag and his reliability at the bat,peculiarly fit him for his new position of honor andgive him all the more prominence among a team ofplayers noted for their erratic unsteadiness. Cap­tain Abells is a native of Massachusetts, comingfrom the town of Uxbridge. He is a student in thescience department and last year was a member ofthe Glee Club. As a man he is now popularamong his college-mates more on account of his un­selfish manner and genial disposition than on ac­count of his ability to play ball or sing. The wellwishes of the entire University go out to him in hisendeavor to get together a winning nine for '95.The Wail of the Wit.Something witty,Something pretty,Something with a funny point;Something gritty-Just a dittyThat would jog their jolly joint.Had I wrought it,As I thought it,Truly they'd have praised my wit;But 0 draught it!Some one caught itAnd I failed to make my hit! c. s.

Itis charged with "unchristianizing the universities."The charge is not confined to institutions which arenot under Church control. It is not surprising thatin such schools a secular spiri t should be in the as­cendancy. The Baptists, according to reports from.their Educational Society meeti ng at Saratoga, arediscussing the danger in their institutions. It is evi­dent that the churches of America must look closelyafter the religious life and spirit of their collegesand universities. There must be utmost freedomin all study �nd investigation, but it must be thattrue freedom, loyalty to the whole truth, which isborn of a genuine Christian spirit. Loyalty to atangent is sometimes the sheerest rebellion to thewhole truth. Secularism is loyalty to a tangent.­American University Courier.College Notes.The valuable library of the late Philip Schaff willbe given to the Union Theological Seminary.Mrs. D.
