UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.Single Copies10 Cents. CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, MAY 2, 1�95. VOL. 1II, No. 29.1\ T THe BRITISH MUSeUM.MARTHA FOOTE CROW.The light falters downward dimlyFrom a pall-draped London sky;Even here in the British Museum,My heart aches; who can tell why?Beneath my hands lies a volumeWhose leaves are a yellowish dun;'Tis the unmistakable colorOf fifteen ninety-one.'Tis Phillis, the shepherdess Phillis,That tickled the fancy of Lodge;The book has a pastoral sweetness,The text is a hopeless hodge-podge.Fair Phillis stands statuesquely,She poses for Lodge his book;And he puts her into the quartoFor all the people to look.But about her, besides, is a somethingFar deeper than coquettish sway,That sets my fancy a-dreamingAnd longing to be far away.The text may be rattling to chaos,The world may be dying to knowHow Lodge caracoled his devotion,To the golden world I must go ! The" Golden Thoughts" of GuevaraI read in a musty tome;But I want the golden sunshineAnd a greenwood wherein to roam.Here's old Sylvester's Du BartasAnd all his "Weeks Divine."Lie there! In the lark-lighted meadowOne dreamful hour be mine!With Horner they used to class him,. Those Elizabethans wise;But they themselves k new betterThan to let him blind their eyes.They left him in the shadowOf the oriel window's bay;And off they went to the river,And I with them will away.The Museum doves are flying,Where the pillars' shadow floats,I want to gaze on the wonderOf their iridescent throats.I want to go a-wandering,Of solitude drink my fill ;I wan t to sit on a green bankAnd fly my thoughts at will.I want the forest stillness,With one song dropping down,A pearl-song set in silence,A jewel unknown in town.N ext to me there sits a reader,He is bald, cross-eyed and squints,Near-sighted, wrinkled, and coloredWith fourteenth century tints.With a runic text he is struggling,- He notes each iota fine;In this I might take comfortHis text is worse than mine. I know a nook by the roadsideWith a laurel hedge around;'Tis a robin's own arcanum,Which he fills with dulcet sound;He sits on the glittering laurel,And trills his croodling quirls,That fall with spendthrift boldnessLike broken strings of pearls.I know a road by a castle,Where an oak-tree spreads its shade;The path leads down to the bower.That a story-book princess made.His devotion does not inspire me.As for me, I would not giveAn Elizabethan half-groatHis sapless life to live.Take all your First Editions,Give them book-worms, give them dust;Let them lie untouched forever,Let their clasps be brown with rust.304 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.They won't let you see the mansionUnless you come at three;But who cares for oaken wainscotWhen here is the living- tree?A tree in whose draperied shadowThe soul of the ages sleeps,And forever and foreverIts treasured secret keeps;And now and then stirs in slumberAnd trembles with by-gone woe,And whispers of old-time loversThat wandered to and fro,That loved and kissed in the shadow,That kissed as lovers must.Alas that their hearts and their lovingShould crumble away to dust!I dream too of Epping ForestWhere Robin Hood used to roam,Maid Marion and Little John,And Friar Tuck had their home.I know the fairy circleWhere the Merry Men danced without fear,Where Robin Hood whispered soft nothingsIn fair Maid Marion's ear.Ah ! Robin Hood, cease to beckon,And Friar Tuck, do not laugh;I must scan, collate and edit,I must work on my monograph.Some one will steal my thesis,If I toil not till nearly dead;If I spare a single minute,Will come out one day ahead.I must prove that you never existed,That you lovers never kissed,Poor ghosts, as you dreamily wanderedIn that old-time rosy mist.But, alas, one hour I have wasted,Dreaming of you in your dell ;To the glory of all my thesisI fear you have rung the knell.London, September, I894.Archreological Work in Egypt.The Semitic Club met Monday evening at thePresident's house, and was addressed by Dr. Breastedon "Recent Archseological Work in Egypt." Dr.Breasted told of the past and present scientific excavating along the Nile, of the destruction of inscriptions and temples by the natives and the terrible havoccaused by the tourists' demands for relics. Five thousand dollars a year for five years would buy inEgypt a collection nowhere equaled and never againto be duplicated. As we know nothing of the richarchaeological fields of fifty years ago, so in a fewyears the tourists' demands will strip Egypt of itspresent riches. After Dr. Breasted's address the secretary was instructed to memorialize the Board ofTrustees, asking their cooperation in securing such afund. Five thousand dollars a year for five years willsecure (with the promised assistance of Dr. Breasted,Mr. Petrie and the Egyptian government) the Egyptian Museum of the world for the University of Chicago.Haskell Lectures.The first course of the Haskell Lectures on the" Relations of Christianity to the Other Faiths" willbe given by Rev.

The tide was coming in slowly-too slowlyfor the impatient little ripples, which tumbled overeach other in their eagerness to come closer and hearwhat the two said. Her loose hair, its bronze colorblackened by the shadow of the trees, floated out, andtouched his cheek. She tried to twist it out of theway, but he imprisoned her tardy fingers. He measured her small white hands with his own palm, andthe approaching waters murmured in jealousy. Aftera long time the two rose to go, and now the tide hadcome in so far that the little waves could hear herwords." This is the first time ". But the waves can hear and forget much in a night.M. L.

NEMESIS.Once a Freshman was wrecked on an African coast,Where a cannibal monarch held sway,And they served up that Freshman in. slices on toast,On the eve of that very same day.But the vengeance of heaven followed swift on the act,And before the next morning was seen,By the cholera morbus that tribe was' attacked,For that Freshman was dreadfully green.-Mickmicken Review.I see the young girl in beauty rare,Sans kink, sans curl, banging her hair-And hear the young man at the piano there,Hard as he can-banging his air.A young mother stands oppressed with care,With slipper in haud-banging, her heir.-Red and Blue -,A maid, a man,An opened fan,A seat upon the stair:A stolen kiss,Six mon ths of bliss,Then twenty years of care.-Ex.SPRING.Now bright the days for me have dawned,And gay my heart doth leap,My worry's o'er, and in the nightMost peacefully I sleep.For on the patches in my pantsNo mortal eye shall frown,They will be fully hidden whenI wear the cap and gown.-Cornell Widow.The college man is, so they say,To grievous errors prone,He often takes another's hat,And leaves instead his own.But those who say they've seen this doneDeclare they never find,The man who takes a dollar hatLeaves one worth three behind.=Occident,MULTUM IN PAR VO."

The distinguished and busy editors who have, at considerableinconvenience to themselves, come here to lecture tous should be shown that their courtesy is not unappreciated. The lectures have possessed also a realinterest and value which makes them worthy a largeattendance. A general invitation, it should be understood, is extended to ?11.THE second game with Northwestern has beenwon-easily won. If our team keeps up thepresent excellence it is to be doubted whethereven the Chicago League will be able to win a gamefrom us. The feature of Monday's contest was Mr.Clarke's fine work in the box. Seldom has a steadiergame been pitched. Nine men were struck out byhim, and only one by the Northwestern pitchers.The quietness of the spectators at the game recalledGray's line,, , And all the air a solemn stillness holds."Perhaps President Harper's proclamation occasioneda certain embarrassment, although there is no reasonwhy it should have done so. It is to be said in ourown favor, that we never have been a discourteous andjeering crowd. We have won a reputation for fairness and courtesy that is not unmerited. And evenat Evanston, a week a�o, our falling from grace wasnot serious, but rather a "beginning of evi1." Thismatter, however, cannot be emphasized too strongly,and President Harper's notice will doubtless do muchgood. It is greatly to be hoped, however, that thealternative of guying is not total silence and thatChicago's' enthusiasm will be manifested in heartycheering. Let a few strong-lunged individuals gettogether as a nucleus and the rest of the crowd willfollow.IT was distinctly the purpose of the projectors and 'founders of the University of Chicago, not merelyto add one more to the number of already existingAmerican colleges, but rather to bring into existencean institution which should meet needs in college anduniversity education hitherto unprovided for. Thiswas not meant to imply that the existing institutionswere defective in plan, or deficient in accomplishment,but rather that they were doing their work so wellthat there could be no good reason for establishing a306 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLYPURLISHED WEEKLY IN THE INTEREST OF THE STUDENTS OF THEUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO.EDITORIAL BOARD.FRANK W.

The name ofMrs. Crow is well known' among American poets.The kindly interest which she has always manifestedin the WEEKLY is very highly appreciated by the editors.MUCH interest is being manifested in the Telford Prize Story and Poem Competition announced in the WEEKLY of April 18. Quitea large number have already signified their intentionof trying for one of the prizes. It is hoped that asmany as possible will enter the competition.The point raised in the communication, written bya prominent undergraduate, which appears in anothercolumn, is perhaps timely. While we doubt the probability of any such difficulty arising, still it may bebest to be on the safe side in the matter. The suggestion made of asking the fortunate competitors tobe prepared to give affidavit that their productions arestrictly their own, is a good one and might with advantage be adopted.UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.new university unless it could justify itself by offering peculiar conveniences and advantages. Hence thespirit of innovation characteristic of almost all theactivities of the University of Chicago-innovation,not as an end, but as a means to the end referred to.Hence the short terms, sessions, during the four q uarters of the year, the Quarterly Convocation in place ofthe annual Commencement, and the admission of students at the beginning of every quarter.In no respect, however, is the departure from theold lines of university organization more apparentthan in the preparation of the University to prosecutethe work of University Extension. The Universityof Chicago is the first, not only in this country, but inthe world, to recognize this form of work by estab-, lishing a separate division for its special conduct.Here the direct attempt is to bring as many persons aspossible under university influence, not only withinthe University quadrangles, but in all the towns thatcan be reached .. The extent to which this effort hasbeen successful is probably little known except to\those who have especially had in charge the organi-zation and promotion of the work.A very significant feature of our extension workwhich has not received due attention is the interestwhich it arouses toward the University of Chicago.Throughout the entire district where the University'slecturers have been every move of this institution iswatched with interest. Every man and woman thathas taken an extension course under one of our professors and, thus become acquainted personally with'the University has a feeling of ownership toward theinstitution similar to the loyalty of the resident student, and rejoices over her victories in debate andathletics and mourns over her defeats, in the sameway. And not only that-the desire for a higher education is aroused in the minds of many otherwise indifferent. For the extension work as it is carried onby the University of Chicago, is not an offering of ashort cut to college credits, degrees, and diplomas, nota satisfying with a little knowledge, but a guidanceand a stimulation to further work and an insight intothe greatness and richness of an education-a taste ofa sort not to quench but to stimulate thirst. The extension centres are in a remarkable degree feeders andadvocates for the University of Chicago.A new dining car service between Chicago and Buffalo via the Nickel Plate Road, has recently been 307placed at the disposal of the traveling public, whichwill enable patrons of this favorite low rate line to obtain all meals on trains when traveling on throughtrains between Chicago, New York and Boston.

The running track promises to be fast, and has already taken on a solid surface. It has been used quite frequently by our cyclistswho, speak of it in glowing terms. The track is 1,453feet long, or little over three laps and a half to themile. The baseball field· could still further be improved by leveling the surface outside of the diamondand use the soil for filling the unsightly hole in thenorth end of the grounds. The diamond itself hasbeen sodded and the running lines have been put under clay with the regulation width. With but smalladditional expense the grounds can be put in shape tofavorably compare with, if not excel, any athleticgrounds in the city. To-keep spectators from crowding on to the field, a fence immediately outside therunning track on the west side should be erected assoon as possible, and better entrance accommodationsshould also be provided.308 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.Chicago, II; Northwestern, 6.For the second time this season, Northwesternhas been met on the diamond by Chicago and defeated, by a score so decisive that, at this time, thereseems little doubt as to the superiority of the hometeam. Of course the season is young yet, and whileit may be said that other teams will improve, ourteam ought also to improve.The Northwestern team came down Monday afternoon accompanied by a large delegation of Evanstonand Northwestern law students. Play was called at3 : 30 with Chicago at bat. A hit by Nichols, a sacrifice by Jones and a hit by Abells netted One run forthe home team in this inning. Abells was caught atthird, and Adkinson flew out to Witter. In thesecond half, Northwestern made two runs on a singleby Ward, a sacrifice and Sickles' three base-hit.Northwestern scored two more in the second inningon an error by Winston. In the third the home teamscored five runs on errors of Ward and Kedzie andhits by Winston and Hering. Northwestern did notscore again until the eighth, but in the fourth Chicago scored two on hits by Winston, Nichols andAbells, and in the sixth added three runs to the scoreon a base on balls and hits by Jones and Abells. Inthe eighth errors by Nichols and Clarke and Kedzie'stwo-bagger gave Northwestern two more runs.Kedzie pitched effectively the last three innings.Housen went behind the bat and Sickles to secondbase.

EDITOR :-In discussing the announcement ofthe" Telford" Prizes several days ago with a friend,there arose a mutual query in regard to one of therules of the competition which prescribes that onlyundergraduates shall be eligible to compete. Thequestion that interested us was as to whether someshrewd or fun-loving graduate student might not be 309tempted to enter the lists, cloaking his identity undersome undergraduate signature borrowed on conditionof" divying up" in case of success. Now, many ofthe undergrads who are considering making a trialwould feel quite differently inclined if there existedthis prospect that the prizes would after all fall tosome graduate" shark." Therefore it seemed worthwhile to suggest to you the advisability of some measure which would insure a.fair field. It might be sufficient on the awarding of the prizes to require fromthe fortunate competitors an affidavit that their productions were strictly their own. But of such details,provided the measure is deemed worthy of your attention, you will be the ablest judge.AN UND!tRGRAD."Cap and Gowri" Press Notices.The" Cap and Gown" has established itself as aflattering success, and a credit to its editors. Following are some press notices:"The Cap aud Gown," published by the undergraduates ofthe University of Chicago, '95. This is an entertaining andhandsome work wholly creditable to the undergraduates. Itsmanaging editors are C. S. Pike and Philip Rand; businessmanager, W. W. Atwood, assisted by O. J. Arnold. The associate editors are P. G. Woolley, M. E. Sampsell, Edith B. Foster, R. H. Johnson, C. R. Barrett, Agnes S. Cook,Jeannette E.Kennedy, H. T. Chace, Jr.; artist in chief, Forest Grant, withH. E. Hewitt and P. A. Carroll, assistants. The artistic workis of marked excellence. It is seldom one sees more expressiveand intelligent faces than here given. This is especially trueof the young ladies. They look womanly and in earnest. Thebulk of the young men who part their hair in the middle lookeffeminate and less manly than their sisters are womanly. Thewritten articles show scholarly acquirements, and the book, ina literary sense, is wholly creditable to the great institution.An effort of the young men of the Chicago University to looklike men instead of girls would be an improvement, but, per-_haps, they can persuade their sisters to part their hair on theside. -lnter- Ocean.., Cap and Gown" is the title of a handsome volume issuedin the interests of the Chicago University, and consisting of thehistory and statistics of that institution, profusely illustratedand finely arranged.After the list of "aiders and abettors" to the founder, Mr.Rockefeller, who is.of course the patron saint of the college,and the object of the book's dedication-the showing is reallysurprising. No ordinary dweller in Chicago who has not hadtime to investigate for himself will believe his eyes when hesees the systematized societies for improvement 'and sports(not as opposed to improvement, either!) which are carried onsmoothly and as if they had been going for as many decades asthere have beeu years in which to establish themselves.The literary portion of the book consists principally of verse,it seems, but there is prose, too. There is very much that is.good j and the book is valuable statistically. The frontispieceis a particularly good piece of drawing, by Mr. McCutcheon,and is possibly the best thing in the book.

The Bowen-MerrillCo., Indianapolis. Price $I.25.This is the latest of the series of books from the pen of tbeHoosier Poet, which have made his name a household wordin America and in Great Britain. The question whether Rileyis a true poet has long been decided in the affirmative.His is a narrow vein, but it is pure gold. In him dialectpoetry has had its truest exponent. He has had hundreds ofimitators but they are merely imitators and not creators.Nothing can exceed the simple beauty and truth of his childpoems and his Hoosier rhymes. This collection takes itsname from the long poem which begins the volume. It is inHoosier dialect and is a very strong piece of work. Of especial interest is the hitherto unpublished " Leonainie," writtenlong ago in imitation of Edgar Allan Poe. Even such criticsas Edmund Clarence Stedman were deceived by it and pronounced the poem" unquestionably genuine." It was printedbefore Riley had won the popular ear, with the idea thus oftesting whether his poetry would meet with acceptance ifsigned by a famous name. The publishers have issued thesepoems in a very gem of an edition. There are several fineill ustra tions.The Law of Psychic Phenomena, by Thomson Jay Hudson,r zrno., 409 pp., $r.so. A. C. McClurg & Co., Chicago.The above is the title of a very interesting and exceedinglyreadable book, the sixth edition of which has recently beenissued. The author claims for his book that it presents" aworking hypothesis for the systematic study of hypnotism,spiritism, etc.," and lays down as his hypothesis three propositions, namely:-First, man bas, or appears to have twominds, each endowed with separate attributes and powers, eachcapable, under certain conditions, of independent action; viz.,a subjective mind and an objective niind.Second.-Thesubjectivemind is constantly amenable to control by suggestion.Third.-The subjective mind is incapable of inductive reasoning.The author then proceeds to apply his hypothesis to variousmanifestations of hypnotic power, of spiritism, and to mentaltherapeutics. He deals with his subject in a straightforward,houest manuer, bringing to bear the results of the experimentation and research of many noted scientists. Such a work cannot be produced without much thought, reading and reflection.It is not so technical in character, but that it can be read withinterest and profit by any thinking man, yet it presents subjectsiu new lights, approaching them from a standpoint which demands thoughtful and careful consideration from the philosophical mind.Whether Mr. Hudson's hypothesis is a valuable one and willstand the test of a rigid application to manifestations ofpsychic phenomena, remains to be seen. Meanwhile, we recommend for the book a careful and thoughtful reading.Other Colleges.The Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association will send a team toCanada this summer.There will be uo summer football practice either at Harvardor the University of Pennsylvania this year ..London University, after limiting itself for nearly sixtyyears to conferring degrees upon examination, now proposesto take up instruction.The Amherst faculty has passed the following resolution :"Resolved, That past experience of the faculty renders it inad- visable to assign recitations for 7 o'clock in the morning."This action will make it impossible for professors to hold earlymorning recitations, in order to allow the afternoons free forcertain students.Oxford won the annual boat race with Cambridge recentlyby a good margin.

LAWSON, Publisher The Chicago Record,Chicago, m., U. S. A.UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.Infinite Energy.A copy of the first part of a work, byB. F. Downing, published with theabove title, is before us. A brief reviewof the summary and synopsis of the elements of all the parts, printed in thefirst twenty pages of part one, indicatesa thorough and popular introspection ofthe Elements of Matter and Attributes ofEnergy with their motions and phenomena as exploited in nature's marvelousforces and wonderfnl works, and as revealed and explaiued by the microscope,spectroscope and telescope and by experimental researches j embracing manifold topics in the curriculum of science,including electro-magnetic physics andoccult science.The work is dedicated to the teachersof the United States as a souvenir of theauthor's high esteem for those who perform the duties of that profession.The plan of the work indicates a scopeand direction of thought hitherto unrecognized by Scientists. The fact thatthere is an occult influence within andaround us, producing differential phenomena and working out marvelous results, has been known for ages; hut thatthis influence or essence is one of themanifestations of the force that controlsthe worlds and governs natnre's laws hasnever been accepted in the standardworks on science.The elucidations of the views presented are remarkable and the arguments used and the conclusions arrivedat are. apparently, incontrovertible.In the elaboration of the topics discussed, the sentiments are brought butboldly and distinctly and facts are adduced to verify the conclusions.The elements of matter and force ashere delineated, are new and astounding.And the general reader, the student, thescholar and professional men who readits pages will find views that will improve the intellect, perfect the understanding and ripen the field of humanthought in the mind of every investigator. The theme foreshadows the coming science of the future, and whilenatural forces, recently discovered, areapplied to mechanical uses, so the originand laws of the forces that producenatural phenomena are discovered andelucidated in a manner never before presented.As the work is published in parts thefirst two or three are devoted to a briefdescription of natural phenomena in theheavens, in the sea, earth and air.These include Astro-physics, space andwhat is in it, its ether clouds, firemist,starry matter and condensed nebular,cosmic dust, meteoric streams, cometarymasses and worlds, suns, systems and constellations; the earth, with its rocks,minerals, water, air, gases, earthquakes,volcanoes. auroras, luminous sea, St.Elmo's fire, clouds, storms and cyclones.The manifestations of natural forces, asmagnetism, electricity, gravity, galvanism, chemical affinity and psychology,with their mystical relations to naturalphenomena and their resultant effects ofform, sound, heat, light and life are carefully examined, and their attributes, motions and laws, are fully described andexplained. The occult and psychic mysteries are reviewed, and many new suggestions are offered which will aid inaccounting for their cause and character. The human body, with its systems,organs and functions, is considered, andthe cause of its motions and mysteries isdiscovered; and the formation and lifeof all matter, both organic and inorganic,are traced to their ultimate cause.The number, character and laws of themolecular forms of matter are shown,and the ultimate forms of the generationof life, as' observed in the cell, sarcodeand protoplasm are duly considered andrational conclusions are formed.All the subjects are treated in a practical common sense manner free fromthe fine technical ities usually found inworks of its character. An Index andGlossary accompany each part to aid thereader in his researches."There are more things in heaven andearth ...Than are dreampt of in our philosophy."The following paragraphs are noticedand quoted:"The writer has presumed to intro, duce and discuss some new views andarguments upon Theses hitherto considered as fixed science."The examination of light, heat, andenergy of the sun leads to new and important conclusions.,. It is proved that, for several incontrovertible reasons, neither the light,heat, nor energy of the sun or planetsare radiated into space as a cosmic lawof supply.LIGHT OF THE AGES.A literary excerpt 011 the progress ofknowledge."As one searches for the origin ofpower or energy in the domain of nature,however liberal and thorough the investigation may be in the various departments of physical and metaphysicalphilosophy, as hitherto accepted; stillthe glamour of uncertainty and the. hypotheses of mystical speculations, areinvariably presented to the mind."Neither the history of the ancientmagi, who held the key to the wisdomof the ages, nor the religious legends and 313lore of the ancient cabalistic records,nor the savants, who have searchedthrough the curriculum of science for thereason why, nor the psychic sages, whohave consulted the horoscope of time, topredict the destinies of nations, neitherprophet, priest, nor king; 110t one, norall of these great characters, or the records they have made, have been able toset the gates ajar, so the great 'book ofnature could be read or her mysteriesexplained to a world earnestly seekingthe truth."EPOCHS OF DISCOVERY.After mentioning many events thewriter emphasizes some of the more important characters in the advancement ofscience."Newton proved that the forces whichkept the planets in their orbits are notstrange or supernatural forces, but justsuch forces as we are familiar with onthis earth every moment of our lives." Lyell proved the same forces, aroundus now, produced all the changes on theearth by slow processes."Then came Franklin with his kite inthe air, testing the powers of nature, andFaraday with his magnets and dynamoslighting and running the industries ofthe world, and Morse with his telegraph,.talking to the nations of the earth."And as Copernicus discovered thesystem of the cosmos that contains thegreat worlds, so Newton revealed theforce by which they are governed, andLyell tells us how they are built up andformed into beautiful globes of light."The author is an old resident of ourcity and has spent many years in equipping and preparing himself for the dutiesof a teacher and investigator, and theresults are shown in these researches.He has assumed a laborious and difficulttask, one that requires deep and thorough research, patient study and muchtime in the elaboration of the numeroustopics considered, and he certainly haslooked far into the mysteries of nature'sgreat arcanum.The .mechanical effects of the work areexcellent. It is printed on heavy paperin large, new type, with fine illustrationsin blue and gold. .A fine elevation of the Yerkes Telescope, as mounted at the World's Fairand presented by him to the Universityof Chicago, may be found on the coverof the work, with a full description inpart one by Prof. See of the University.A large zodiacal belt or wheel, andplanetarium are represented on one ofthe covers.
