Thomson, and the courtesy of the Directors of the FieldColumbian Museum in granting free admission to the Museumto all members of the University.THE SCANDINAVIAN SEMINARIES.In accordance with the action of the trustees the work of theScandina vian Theological Seminaries has been transferredfrom Cobb Lecture Hall to Walker Hall, at Morgan Park. Thefaculties of these seminaries have been organized into a sepa­rate faculty under the divinity faculty for the conduct of thiswork. It is believed by those who are most closely connectedwith the work that it will now develop more rapidly and moresatisfactorily. Walker Hall has been thoroughly repaired andbeautified. The accommodations are most excellent and con­venient.PI.ANS FOR THE COMING YEAR.I speak now of that which is on the outside. The problemswhich lie before the various faculties are already fairly out­lined. It is better, however, to reserve a public statement con­cerning these until they have been more fully discussed.The Astrophysical Journal.-In connection with the organi­zation of the Astronomical Department, attendant upon thefinishing of the Yerkes Observatory, the University desires toestablish a Journal of Astronomy and Astro-Physics. The moreimportant steps have already been taken. The journal hereto­fore known as Astronomy and Physics, published under theeditorship of Professor Payne, of Carleton College, and associ­ate professor, George E. Hale, will be transferred to the Uni­versity, and will form the basis of a new journal. As alreadyindicated the cooperation has been secured of many of theleading astronomers of the Old World, among whom may bementioned Professor H. C. Vogel" Director of the ImperialObservatory at Potsdam, Germany; Professor' P. Tacchini,Director of the Roman College at Rome; Professor Cornu,Professor in the Ecole Poly technique, Paris; Dr. WilliamHuggins, of the Tulse Hill Observatory, London; and ProfessorN. C. Duner, Directory of the Royal Observatory at Upsala,Sweden. In order that the journal may be made as perfect aspossible typographically, and in order that the illustrationsmay be as full as possible, a fund has been secured guarantee­ing the University for the publication of the journal $1,000 ormore each year for five years in addition to the receipts fromsubscriptions and advertising. To this fund, payable annuallyfor five years, the following gei.clemen are subscribers: ChauncyJ. Blair, B. H. Burham, Geo. A. Fuller, George E. Hale, Geo.W. Hale, James W. M'Donough, Frank S. Osborne, D. V.Purington, Martin A. Ryerson, Francis P. Wheeler. TheUniversity is exceedingly fortunate in being able to receivethis assistance for so important a work.The Woman's Building.- The University has in its posses­sion the sum of nearly $18,000, subscribed towards a woman'shall. To complete this building, of which the foundations havealready been laid and which is to occupy the space betweenKelly Hall and Beecher Hall, will require the sum of $60,000.One of the things which we should like to see accomplishedduring the present year is the raising of this fund. An effortwas made to secure this money as a part of the Million DollarFund, but this effort did not succeed. To the women of Chi­cago and of the Northwest the University turns for the com­pletion of the work so nobly begun. With this hall completedthe University will be able, at least for a time, to meet the de­mand which is rapidly growing for accommodations for youngwomen. Will the plea of the University be in vain? );_ Jf. C t g- q 'I. 8'1/' � --r0, ( ....,")/CHICAGO WEEKLY.The Biological Laboratory.-The greatest need of the Uni- r:versity to-day, beyond all question, is that of a BiologicalLaboratory. It is ready to confess, however, that to the Bio­logical departments, the obligations which it assumed in theirorganization have been less satisfactorily fulfilled than to anyother. With Geology temporarily housed, with Physics,Chemistry, and Astronomy permanently provided for, therestill remains the task of making the necessary provision forthe great group of Biological departments, Zoology, Botany,Palaeontology, Physiology and Anatomy. We cannot hope tomake full provision at once, but the interests of science andthe immediate interests of these departments demand thatwithin another year there be erected at least one laboratorywhich shall meet pressing needs. It is literally impossible forthe work to continue in its present quarters. The laboratoryneeded can be erected for $100,000. Who will build it? Theplans are ready. Work may begin within thirty days, if onlythe money is in hand.Hyde Park Protective Association.It is with pleasure that we print the followingstatement of the Hyde Park Protective Association,which will be interesting reading to every professorand student in the University. For the success of theassociation much credit is due its secretary, ArthurBurrage Farwell, who has been indefatigable in hisefforts in behalf of the association during its entirehistory. The following is the statement by' the pres­ident:Within the past twelve months we have given at­tention, through our own agents, to 116 illegal liquorsellers, swearing out and following up 1,144 separatewarrants of arrest, and secured convictions againstpractically all offenders, with fines aggregating $8,660,and have completely broken up about 100 saloons anddens of vice. In this campaign we secured at leastSo editorials and news articles in the leading dailypapers, and held over 100 interviews with police andother city and county officials.The treasurer's statement for the above twelvemonths is as follows:RECEIPTS.July 13th, 1893, Check from former treasurer.Subscriptions collected during the year.. . . . $ 684 702,846 56$3,531 26DISBURSEMENTS.Salaries and expenses of agents.Attorneys' fees. . . .Printing, postage, etc.Sundries .Balance on hand . $2,943 35445 00!O7 4117 50 $3,513 76$17 50The officers of the association receive no salary,though their service is often laborious.Since February I st, 1894, our expenses, thoughconstant, have been small, as we found it practicableduring this period to do our work largely through thepolice department. In this present month, on theother hand, we have been forced to unusual expensein defending, by special counsel and witnesses, ourr '(..rv r: �v L-UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.Hyde Park anti-saloon laws, in the case of Spittal vs.(Mayor) Hopkins. As has been the unvarying ruleof our association, we won decisions in our favor uponevery point, although Spittal, the saloon-keeper, wasdefended by Alexander Sullivan and ,partner, withplenty of brewer's money, as we believe, to help them.In addition to saving our priceless laws unimpaired,we obtained from this trial, the decision by JudgeWindes, new to most of our people, that in optiondistricts with a majority signing for a saloon, themayor is under no obligation to grant a.license, unlessbelieved by him to be for the public good.Last fall (to the surprise of the onlooking world)we won our World's Fair fight completely. A littlebaffled earlier, about September r st, through themerit of a new and more vigorous policy, we began towin all fights, and soon routed every illegal saloon­keeper we could find, and closed the season in com­plete possession of the field. The association hasacquired the reputation of being invincible.But great dangers beset us now, second only tothose of the World's Fair time. A small minority ofthe new-comers, occupying the new buildings recentlyerected near Jackson Park, want saloons and liquorabout them, as also do the rowdy class who visit ourdistrict especially Sundays. Plenty of unscrupulousmen have been found, and are still being found, to runhotels and saloons to pander to this demand in defi­ance of the law of this state.We have no choice, except to maintain our organi­zation with a fair working fund at all times in thetreasury. If this association should be broken downor starved out, the same degree of public apathywould totally discourage such good friends as ourcause can count in the police department and at theCity Hall, and there would be nothing left to preservethe man who is reading this sheet from seeing asaloon opened in the same block in which are hishorne and his children. And the cause of religionand morality would suffer an incalculable disaster.At present we estimate $2,500 per year as sufficientto maintain the work of the association and preserveour homes. This is a very moderate amount to raise,provided each does not leave the responsibility toothers. We request your subscriptions. Our treas­urer is W. H. Brintnall, Cashier Drovers NationalBank, Union Stock Yards, Chicago. Subscriptionsmay be sent to him, or checks payable to the order ofthe treasurer may be sent to the secretary, ArthurBurrage Farwell, 243 Adams street. Please send tothe president information as early and complete aspossible of any illegal liquor selling that may be ob­served in Hyde Park.THOMAS A. HALL, President.Prof. H. P. Judson has returned from an elevendays' trip to New York and Boston. NEARLY every college in America is open to-dayand well started on another year's work. Harvard isusually the last of the great institutions to begin, butit is always in full operation by October I, the two orthree days before that time being devoted to registra­tion and the installation of the freshman class. Re­ports from the various universities indicate that theattendance is good, yet it does not show the increaseof past years. The freshman classes at the easterncolleges are generally smaller than in '93, but the re­markable condition of additional numbers in upperclasses is noted, so that the totals are an improvementover those of last fall.In the west there is a decided increase in the size of, classes and everything points to a successful yearamong th Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin,Iowa and Minnesota colleges. Purdue, Oberlin, DePauw, Lake Forest, Beloit, Northwestern, Knox,Wabash, Universities of Wisconsin, Michigan, Illi­nois and Minnesota are all able to exhibit a larger en­rollment than ever before. The University of Chicagocelebrated its second anniversary yesterday and beganits third year this morning with over one thousandstudents.Although three departments of Yale, the academic,scientific and law, began their year Thursday, therules of registration are so loose that the exact num­ber of students cannot be determined for some daysyet. In only the academic department is there anycertainty of even the approximate number. Thereare 347 freshmen against 325 last year. This is thesmallest gain made at Yale for several years. Theother classes of the department will number: Seniors,245 ; juniors, 280; sophomores, 310, and post-gradu­ates, ISO; giving a total in the academic departmentof 1,330. The scientific department will include 170seniors, 220 juniors, 245 freshmen and 75 specials andgraduates; total, 700.. The law school will probablyhave 225, against 188 last year. The attendance inthe academic department last year was 1,086 and inthe scientific 601. The chances are that the totalattendance will this year be 2,500, against 2,203 lastyear.THE college year has opened at Colby Universitywith the largest number of students in attendancesince the college was founded in 1820. The freshmanclass will number seventy-five. Eighteen youngwomen have joined the women's division of the class.The changes in the faculty are few. Professor J. W.Black, Ph. D., of Oberlin, takes the chair of historyleft vacant by the resignation of Professor ShailerMathews, who has accepted an assistant professorshipin the theological department of the University ofChicago. Henry C. Jackson, for three years directorof the gymnasium at Phillips-Exeter Academy, hasbeen appointed to the same position at Colby. 34 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKL v.fairness, or the persuasive powers of Cornish, DonnellyThe WEEKLY may be found on sale at the office of the University Press, AMcClurg's, Brentano's, Curry's, and all News Stands South of 39th Street. and other C. .

Aside from the interest whichcentered in the impressive convocation cere­monies, many yards of tape will occupy the attentionof newcomers. It has been remarked that the systemof majors and minors, units and flunks, is harder tounderstand than any other" credit" method in opera­tion among educational institutions. One student, amember of the graduate school, after being in resi-_ dence at the University for several months, was heardone day soliciting an " Academic" to set him right onthe question of credits. New students will then be ina sort of maze for weeks to come. They will beoblivious to everything about them save" majors andminors," and the football team. It will be no unusualsigh t to meet scores and scores of freshmen poringfor hours over the elaborate calendars, bulletins andannouncements which are turned out so profusely fromthe UNIVERSITY PRESS. Not that these documentsinterest them in the least. They fascinate and holdtheir readers spell-bound. When the brighter intellectshave mastered the intricacies of the system the posses­sors show glad signs of victory. If he be a man and she puts on a new bonnet, and taking a volume ofBrowning, seats herself beneath a spreading oak, nearthe recitation buildings, thus exciting admiration andenvy in the hearts of' her less fortunate classmates.Unrest, indeed, is what the freshman runs up againstfor the first few weeks at college.IT IS always distressing to witness a defeat to ourUniversity team. Last Saturday it was particu­larly so, when we lost the first game of the seasonto the C. A. C. eleven by a score of twelve to four.Many of the onlookers remarked that Chicago usuallygot the worst of it on decisions of contested points.Whether this was due to the umpire's unflinchingteam to speak of the unfairness of the umpire after thegame, but when a team is defeated by the small mar­gin of eight points and the umpire is one of the hometeam, the affair assumes a different aspect. Outsidespectators have noticed many times, heretofore, theoverfairness of Chicago's umpires to visiting teams.Altholl�h it is far better to have a reputation for over­fairness than for unfairness, the same evil resultsaccrue from either. If 'varsity umpires forget Chi­cago's interests in their struggle to give fair and un­biased decisions Chicago will continue to lose games.To avoid unpleasant and unfortunate disputes andcontentions let the umpires be chosen from outsideteams and not from the ranks of the contesting schools.THE establishment of a choir is one of the" newt_hings" which Wardner Williams, director ofmusic, proposes to do during the coming quar­ter. The choir which has furnished the music atchapel services and the other religious exercises inthe past has lacked many things, and Mr. Williamshas determined upon the organization of a mixedchoir which shall be in every way well qualified forthe work they will be called on to do. The planwhich Mr. Williams proposes is substantially as fol­lows. By competitive examination sixteen memberswill be selected from all departments of the Univer-d. freshman, he saunters out upon the football field sity.

On special occasionsthe full choir of sixteen voices will appear. Cap andand gown will be worn by members whenever theyappear in public, The members will be officers of theUniversity and will be given proper remuneration fortheir work. The WEEKLY applauds Dr. Williams' planand wishes him every encouragement in his work.THE TIME has come when a faculty of Lawshould be gathered together and instruction inthis great division of the University work be­gun. The plan of the School of Law has been in largepart prepared. The features of the school have beenmarked out. In order to establish a school whichfrom the beginning shall be prominent among similarschools in this country, a school to which only gradu­ates of colleges shall be admitted, a school for thestudy of jurisprudence as well as of practical law , theUniversity needs $30,000 a year for salaries, and $50,-000 for a library. If there were thirty men whowould contribute $1,000 a year for five years towardssalaries of the professors until the school could befairly established, and until some permanent fundscould be secured, the University would undertake thework and the school would be open for instructionOctober I, 1895. This is one of the tasks whichshould be undertaken during the coming year.­Extr_act from President Harper's Convocation Address.PROSPECTS for a successful and prosperous yearare brighter than ever before. To-day we havea larger student body than ever before in thehistory of the University; a greater number than anycollege ever had in the third year of its existence.Everything points to success. The football team hasmade a good beginning even in defeat. Good gleeand other musical clubs will represent the University.Social life will be freer and more pleasant than informer years; in fact, life will be pleasant at Chicagothis year. In your days of prosperity don't forgetthe WEEKLY. It will be your friend.WE TAKE pleasure in presenting as a frontis­piece this week an excellent likeness of theRev. John Henry Barrows, D. D., the convo­cation speaker. Rev. Barrows is too well known toour University and outside readers to require any bio­graphical sketch here. His reputation as a scholarand divine is as wide as his creed is broad. He isconnected with the University in the capacity of Pro­essorial Lecturer on Comparative Religion. 5HERE'S TO '97· May her joys be many, andher sorrows few.

For some timebefore the long line of professors and distinguishedguests had taken their places on the platform, therehad gathered the largest audience that has yet at­tended a convocation. Johnny Hand's orchestra en­tertained the waiting crowd with excellent music froma stand near by, and struck up a march when theconvocation procession was seen approaching fromWalker Museum. Those who occupied places on theplatform were the president and convocation orator,the president and board of trustees, the official guests,and members of the faculties.The invocation was given by the Rev. Wm. W.Everts, D. D., and Rev. John Henry Barrows followedwith the convocation address.Rev. Barrows subject was" The Greatness of Relig­ion," and his treatment of it was masterly. No oneis better qualified to speak on such a grand topic, andfor over an hour the great audience listened eagerly tothe words of the distinguished divine.Following Rev. Barrows came the awarding ofhonors. Scholarships in connection with the autumnexaminations for admission were awarded:Edwin C. Wooley, Preparatory School of OhioWesleyan University.Miss Minnie Lester of the Tuscola High School.Academic College certificates were conferred uponMartha F. Klock, W. E. Moffatt, F. O. Schnelle, E.E. Todd, F. C. Sherman and H. R.

In previousyears it has been the custom to start the game with awedge or V as it is oftentimes called, and last yearflying momentum plays were almost invariably used.To be entitled to-a fair catch the player trying' forone must signal. The signal is given by raising thehand. After the signal has been given he cannot runwith the ball if he succeeds in making the catch al­right. Of course if he muffs the ball and succeeds inregaining possession of it he may run, ifhe can. Thepenalty for interfering with a player making a freecatch or downing him after making it is increased tofifteen yards.A touchdown is made as soon at the ball is carriedacross the line, but it need not be brought out for thetry at goal at a straight line from where it crossed theline, but from where the ball is fairly held or calleddown.Touching the ball inside your opponents' ten yardline when off side gives the hall to your opponents as atouchback. Formerly this distance was five and notten yards.The time of the game is shortened from forty-fiveto thirty-five minute halves and the intermission re­duced from fifteen to ten minutes. Other delays arereduced from five to three minutes. This is done inthe interest of the spectators. Often games were pro­longed into darkness.The penalty for fouls, etc., has been increased fromfi ve to ten yards.Formerly after a touchdown two puntouts and triesfor fair catch were allowed; but now, if the first c. A. A. 12; 'Varsity 4.The loss of the game with the C. A. A. last Satur­day was another bit of hard luck. The 'Varsity puta mixed team in the field and the work was surpris­ingly good, so good, in fact, that we should have woneasily. It seems incredible that overfairness on thepart of an umpire should be responsible for the lossof the game, but in all truth we ascribe our defeat tothat cause. Every contested point was given to theAthletics, and when on several occasions points whichshould have certainly been granted our team weregiven the visitors, the large number of spectators ex­pressed disapproval in a most stirring manner.We will venture no prediction as to the outcome offuture contests, but the WEEKLY suggests that in fut­ure umpires and referees, who have 110 interest ineither of the contesting teams and who would be strict­ly impartial, be chosen. The play in Saturday's gamewas as follows :Allen made the kick-off, and the 'Varsity soon gotthe ball on a fumble. They started with it briskly,and made effective gains by backing the centerand using the tackle play. Roby, Allen, Gale andNichols made good gains, and Roby crossed the linefor a touchdown, but Allen failed to kick a goal.Gale made a good catch when the Athletics put theball in play. Nichols circled the Athletics' left endfor twenty-five yards. The team then resorted to lineplays and lost on downs. Hamlin and Van Doozermade several good gains, when the 'Varsity steadiedand recaptured the ball on downs, Gale and Nicholsmade slight gains but the ball was lost on downs.The Athletics sent their halves around the ends forlong gains and Van Doozer crossed the line, Andrewskicking a goal.Allen's kick-off was fumbled and Gale got it. Galeand Allen carried the ball to the visitors' two-yardline. Hamlin took the ball from Allen; the umpirewould not allow it. The 'Varsities braced and heldtheir opponents from gaining on four downs. Asthey were putting the ball in play, time was called.In the second half Nichols made twenty-five yardsand Axelson several more. Nichols tried again andgot fifteen yards. The Athletics braced and got theball on downs. The war was waged in Chicago' s ter­ritory, Hering tackling well and Van Doozer andHamlin making long runs. Hamlin finally made atouchdown and Andrews kicked perfectly.UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKL YoAllen kicked to the Athletics' goal post. Theytried to punt, but Axelson, who had played a hardgame throughout, spoiled the kick and got the ball attheir ten-yard line. Gale went through the centerfor five yards, when time was called.Manual Training School Defeated.The game with the Training School afforded the'Varsities good practice, and some sharp playing am­ply repaid the large crowd which witnessed thesport. A t the start Chicago made the kick-off. Hig­gie got the ball, but it soon fumbled to Chace. Chi­cago's halves failed to make gains and Gale kicked.Lord made five yards, but the ball was lost in a futileattack on Chicago's center. Gale bucked the centerfor six yards and Lamay made a nice run of fifteenyards for a touchdown, Gale kicking a goal. Manualmade a good kick and were given ten yards on an off-. side play. Chicago got the ball in the middle of thefield and passed it to Allen, who cleared the fifty-fiveyards before him for a touchdown.The next touchdown was made on backs and Nich­ols long run for ninety yards. Time was called withthe score 24 to o.In the second half Manual kicked to Allen, whomade thirty yards. Good gains were made and Galecrossed the line, but failed to kick a goal. Higgiekicked poorly from the middle of the field, but oneof his men got the ball. Four downs, however, werecalled without the five yards gained. Chicago kickedbehind the visitor's goal line and Peabody fell on theball, Gale kicking successfully. Hering handled thekick-off and Powers tackled him. Gale kicked andthe Manuals lost on downs.Nichols made a run of twenty-five yards and Galekicked the center for a score. No goal. The Manu­als kicked to Nichols, who returned in kind.

It is possible that the students were ofthis opinion also, for in mass meeting last week theentire undergraduate body voted to abolish the evil.This movement has been indorsed all over the coun­try and it is thought that its effect will greatly benefitthe college.Williams college has returned upon its one hundredand second year with a freshman class of 117. Thefollowing changes have been made in the faculty: Dr.Fite, of Harvard, takes the chair of Biblical literature,made vacant by the resignation of Dr. Bartlett; Pro­fessor Goodrich, of Yale, is made assistant in history;Professor Morton, who has been studying for the lastfi ve years in Europe, takes charge of modern lan­guages. . A radical change has been made in the rulesgoverning attendance, which limits each student'sabsences to one-tenth of all college exercises.Vassar began its thirtieth year with the largest en­rollment ever known. The incoming class shows anincrease over last year's. The Vassar chemistry andphysics laboratory has been enlarged for the thirdtime in six years. Dr. L. C. Cooley, who has beenprofessor of the two sciences since 1874, will nowdevote himself to physics exclusively, and Charles W.Moulton, Ph. D., will become professor of chemistry.Elmer E. Wentworth, A.

Four other changes have beenmade in the faculty, which is now stronger than itever was.Wellesley opened with 780 students registered. Ofthese 250 are freshmen. Dana Hall, the WellesleyPreparatory School, has an attendance of 200.BROWN University commences the college year inexcellent shape. There are over eight hundred stu­dents. Of these 200 are freshmen-more than Brownhas yet had. The Women's College begins the thirdyear of itsexistence with 110 students. In the col­lege proper there has been much enlargement ofcourses. A course in journalism, a medical prepara­tory course and a preliminary law course have beenestablished, by the pursuit of which a student maysave a year in the medical and law schools. Nearly$15,000- has been added to the University'S income, alarge part of which will be employed in the advance­ment of the department of biology. More than fivehundred volumes were added to the library during thevacation and it now numbers over one hundred thou­sand volumes.From Dartmouth to Leland Stanford the thing up­permost in the minds of all collegians is football.The general public, too, seems to be more interestedin the movements of the footballists than anythingelse connected with college life. For three years foot­ball has grown in popularity, until last November itwas predicted that the game had had its day and would- straightway sink into oblivion. This prophecy, how­ever, has not been fulfilled. With the first call forpractice in August it has been seen that the interestin the sport is more pronounced than it was last fall.Changes in the rules have eliminated many of thesupposedly objectionable features of football and thedangers to life and limb have been materially lessened.The new rules are well calculated to reduce the inju­ries to a minimum and by introducing more kicking torender the game more open and therefore much moreinteresting to spectators. What should be done withmomentum plays was a great bone of contention.The tender-hearted spectator thought them savage,even murderous. The ambitious team captain sawcertain victory in them if well executed, and refusedto give them up. The revising committee hascompromised matters with wonderful skill, the newrule on momen tum play being:No momentum mass plays shall be allowed.A momentum mass play is one where more than three menstart before the ball is put in play. Nor shall more than threemen group for that pnrpose more than five yards back of thepoint where the ball is put in play.Saturday'S games marked the virtually opening ofthe football season. They furnish no possible compar- isons, though, and it will be difficult to measure thestrength of the big teams for three or four weeksto come. Yale beat Trinity 42 to o-last year6 to o. Harvard beat Dartmouth 22 to o-last year18 to o. Princeton beat Lafayette 40 to o. The scoresare large for the opening of the season and indicatethat the new rules, which necessitate much morekicking, will result in more points. Harvard hadseven of its old men back in Saturday's game, Yaleseven and Princeton six. Harvard played againstthe strongest team that any of the three had to fight.It presented a strong, defensive game and playedastonishingly well at center, where it was expectedto be weak. Princeton was good in interference anddefense, and played an all-round game. Its lineseemed to hold well despite the absence of Balliet.Yale had a weak opponent in Trinity and did not putforth its best efforts.Majors and Minors.Howard's freshman class numbers 575.Out of Vassar's 47 instructors this year, I4 arefrom her alumni.Knapp has returned from New Jersey and will beready for football next week.Walter Camp will coach Stanford University'seleven for its annual game with the University ofCalifornia.Professor Gorman Jones, of Williamsburg College,Kentucky, will enter the graduate school this fall.He is a graduate of Denison University.The approach of the football season is already be­ginning to be felt oppressively by the barbers in thevicinity of collegiate institutions.-Chz'cago Record.Every new student is entitled to a copy of thisweek's WEEKLY free, which he may get by calling atthe office any day between the hours of 9:30 and I I :30.Students returning to the University from theirvacations should notify the WEEKLY of their cityaddresses in order to receive their paper withoutdelay.Arrangements have been made to have the WEEKLYon sale at every news stand south of Thirty-ninthstreet to the University. This, we trust, will be appre­ciated by our advertisers, as it will give the paper amuch wider circulation.John Telford, the men's furnisher, so well knownthrough the advertising columns of the WEEKLY, hasbeen out of the city for a few days on business, butreturned this week, and invites both the new and oldstudents to visit his store on Fifty-fifth street, and seehis new line of furnishings selected with special refer­ence to university trade. Maroon prevails. He willcome out with a large new advertisement next weekA prominent Fifty-fifth street business man ha-made a suggestion that there be a fund raised to buy'and pay the expense of moving the flag pole whichstands in front of the site of the Washington building,and have it placed on the athletic field, where a hand­some large maroon flag may be run up on the occa­sion of all athletic games and sports. Mr. Telfordhas promised to head such a fundwith a subscriptionof ten dollars, and a student has consented to look upthe possibility and expense of getting it, and reportin the next issue of the WEEKLY.Some of the forty or fifty state agricultural collegesmake a special provision for students wishing to worktheir way through college. Such students work dailyon the experimental college farm and receive currentwages. There are many free scholarships in thesecolleges, and board and lodging is cheap, so that aworking student finds that his labor goes far towardpaying his way. Tutoring pays better, however, andvery clever men sometimes earn from $1,000 to $1,500per year in helping through their duller fellows.Such opportunities, however, are found only in thegreat colleges, and are few. At one of these institu­tions one successful young lawyer is said to. haveearned $2,000 in a single year tutoring while yet anundergraduate.Harvard has lost $2'50,000 which it might some day'have had if the late Professor J. P. Cooke had diedwithout making a codicil to his will. ProfessorCooke's estate is estimated at about $500,000. Twoyears ago he made a will giving Harvard a reversion­ary interest in one-half of this amount. Last yearthe professor's nephew, O. W. Huntington, Ph. D.,and his brother-in-law, Professor B. H. Nash, bothinstructors in the college, were dismissed, togetherwith three others, on account of the hard times, as itwas given out. Straightway Oct. 30, 1893, ProfessorCooke made a codicil, in which he crossed off thename of Harvard altogether. Professor Cooke wasone of the oldest professors in point of service in thecollege. He had taught there for more than fortyyears, his term extending over the administrations ofthree presidents. President Eliot was one of hispupils. He came to be the head of the chemistry de­partment, and was still its head up to his death,which came this summer..Under the guidance of professors and other promi­nent alumni, an energetic effort is being made to securethe consent of Psi Upsilon to the revival of its chapterin the University of Chicago. Early in 1869 thatfraternity yielded to the earnest requests of Perry H.Smith and other distinguished residents of Chicago,and granted a charter to students who had beenmembers of another society.
