IV, No ..31.1\ JOURNEYMI\N TO JOY.AGNES SPOFFORD COOK.Go slowly, oh, go slowly, sunshine days!My mistress, let us weigh their wings with gold,That we may linger in the primrose ways,And watch the petals of the Spring unfold.And yet in this new land I know not whereThat fine gold is, to freight the days' swift wings;Unless I dream it when the oriole sings,Or spin it from the snnshine, or thy hair. But, listen! I've the secret. There's a mineIn heart of thou, in happy heart of me,Shall yield us gold serene and splendid, fiueAs Ophir's treasure, and eternally.So, mistress mine, the dear glad days shall bide,­At least awhile; and if at last they go,Why, they shall come again. Dear heart, we knowThe mystery of the budding sweet spring-tide.1\ TklP SOUTH.LETTER III.Your correspondent has always insisted that if acollege must be situated outside of Chicago, the idealsite, like that of a baronial castle, is on the brow of ahill. He was, therefore, pleased with the site of Car­son and Newman College. This institution occupiesa classic eminence in the valley of the Tennessee atMossy Creek, thirty miles from Knoxville.. Themain college building for beauty and utility has fewrivals in the South. It was erected largely by localCARSON AND NEWMAN COLI.EGE.Mossy Creek, Tenn.toil and sacrifice. In earlier days, I am told thatone of the gentlemen whose names the college bears,sold his farm, dedicated the proceeds to the educationof his fellow mountaineers and moved to a rentedplace at a distance. That reminds us of Barnabasand those lands in Cyprus and the replenished treas­ury of the early church. And that, gentle reader, isgiving, of the widow's mite order, because measurednot by what is given but by what is left.The thing which strikes a visitor in many collegesis the disproportion between the paucity of funds and the excellence of results. In Carson and Newmanwe evidently have an illustration of Garfield's state­ment that a student on one end of a log and MarkHopkins on the other constitute a college. PresidentHenderson's ability and power are manifest in thesuccess of the college and in the fact that he is one ofthe speakers at the Knoxville Conference. His edu­cational constituency are from a mountainous country,but like the marble so plentiful in these ranges, theytake polish.Farther up the valley are two colleges, in many re­spects alike, Washington College and Tusculum Col­lege. They do the same thorough educational workand teach the same religious tenets. Both antedatethe railroad, consequently they are at some distancein the country, beautifully situated among mountains,nearly two thousand feet above sea level, where billsfor malaria are at a minimum. Both have celebratedtheir centennials, and like Stradivarius' violins andmeerschaum pipes, have steadily improved with age.Indeed, Washington College claims the distinction ofbeing the first literary institution planted in the val­ley of the Mississippi; its first charter is dated 1782.The Darwinian student will find in the buildings atTusculum the evolution of a college:Stage one.-A one-story, two-room log cabin.Stage two.-A two story, village grammar schoolbuilding.Stage three.-The three-story noble structures-Mc­Cormick and Craig Halls.And finally, King College crowns a commandinghill at Bristol. N ow Bristol has suffered the fate888 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.which once threatened an unsuspecting infant in thedays 6f/'Solomon. It has been dichotomized. Thesurveyors solved the problem of the disputed stateboundary by making Main street the line dividingVirginia from Tennessee. The college is in the latterstate. It is a post-bellum institution but has won foritself a most creditable place among the colleges ofEast Tennessee.About fifteen miles south of Knoxville is the littlecity of Maryville. City, we call it, although the votesof Quakers and Prohibitionists 'desirous of keepingout saloons, have thus far made incorporation impos­sible. Now, Mar,yville is famous for two things-it isthe old home of Sam Houston and it is the seat ofMaryville College. It is many years since Hous­ton was a boy at Maryville, but as a residenter,after a loving pull at his pipe, said, "People roundhere think a heap of Sam. " The residenter, who evi­dently knew his story well, then told me of Houston'searly struggles, his election to the governorship ofTennessee, the crushing discovery that his wife didnot love him, the resignation from public honors, thelife with the Indians. And then, Texas! General ofthe little army, the battle of San Jacinto with the cry,"Remember the Alomo," Santa Ana prisoner, andthe proclamation of the Texan' Republic. It wasupon a mantelpiece at the Herinitage I saw a pic­ture of the Texan hero; underneath were the words,in autograph, " I wish no epitaph to be written totell that I survived the ruin of this-glorious Union."But the chief interest of Maryville is its noted Col­lege. It was a pleasure to meet Prof. S. T. Wils�)ll,an erstwhile Chicago student abd a man greatly hon­ored by his student constituency.Maryville College began in 1819,. ,-'The Facultywas Isaac Anderson, who realized EzraCornells am­bition for Cornell College and taught ,i everything."The student body were five- men, -History is silentbut we presume the victories of. the nine that yeararoused great enthusiasm in the' College 'at.large. Be­fore the war', however, one 'hundr.ed and 'fifty menwere educated for the ministry. ,But the war put aparenthesis about most southern colleges. Indeed,Maryville in 1866 had large assets in history and rep­utation and but little in real estate and hard cash.To-day, however, she has a beautiful .carnpus of twohundred and fifty acres, seven valuable buildings, an.endowment of $250,000, a student body of four hun­dred. All races enjoy its privileges. Last year acolored student led the graduating class.One enterprise at Maryville deserves mention. Itilhrstrates student enthusiasm, the reflex influence offoreign missions and the perseverance of the saints.Under the leadership of Kin Takahoshi, a fellowcountryman of Gen. Yamagata, the boys in mass­meeting, without hypotheses; said; "Resolved, that we have a Y. M. C. A. building." Accordingly,these "there-shall-be-no-Alps" students subscribed$2,400, rolled up their shirt sleeves, went out into thelot and burned 300,000 bricks, equipped Takahoshiwith a set of resolutions and sent him out to get thebalance of the $IO.OOO needed. Of course he is suc­ceeding. If faith can remove mountains, a for/ion',it can put up Y. M. C. A. buildings.After consulting a tourist's manual I shall be pre­pared to write an article on "What I did not see atChattanooga. " A Wagner sleeper and the' 'vast of thenight" are not favorable conditions for sight-seeing.But although we did not catch a glimpse of LookoutMountain 'we passed through Murfreesboro. Here isthe home of Chas. Egbert Craddock (Miss Murfree)and here Bragg and Rosecrans in November, 1863,left a fourth of their armies dead and wounded on thefield. The 'rifle pits and artillery mounds remain tothis day and the Stone river flows past the, beautifulcemetery where the soldiers who fell were buried.R. M. VAUGHAN.Des Moines College.[See Front.ispiece.]The first affiliated college of the University is situ­ated at Des Moines, la. It was founded by the Bap­tists and is recognized by that denomination as theBaptist college of Iowa. The school has a faculty often; the attendance is one hundred and seventy-fivea year. The State Teachers' Association of Iowaclassifies Des Moines College in grade A, there beingthree grades recognized in the state.Two notable' characteristics of the College are itsthoroughness and earnestness in scholarship and itsvery high religious tone; the students maintain verystrong Christian Associations of young men and ofyoung women and the weekly prayer-meeting, heldThursday evening, is regarded as of greatest impor­tance. Four literary societies and a well-conductedpaper, the Collegium Forense, are also supported by thestudents.College Wit.I'd heard about the palisadesOne minute was enoughTo see that they were, after. all,But one enormous bluff.- Record."I adore thee, my love," he exclaimed," As an ancient his love of yore."But her father appeared and explainedThe modern way to a-door.-Ex.Prof.-" Give an illustration of the law that heatexpands and cold contracts."Sophomote-" The days are long in summer andshort in winter."-Ex.UNIVERSITY.

"K-.Book Reviews.From California comes the first book of college verse by asingle author, being Four-Leaved Clover; Stanford Rhymes,by Carolus Ager. Carolus Ager, anglicized, becomes CharlesField, a nephew of Eugene Field, and not unworthy. Hisverse is distinctively of, for aud by the college man; lightever, and often frankly humorous. But the humor is funnyand the lightness is charming; and now and then throughvistas of rhyme oue catches a glimpse of the true skill ofpoesy in the blue distance. Evening on the Campus, God'sAcre, and When We Come Back No More- there is in thesethe real beauty that lives; I fancy the last named will become aclassic in college verse. It seems a pity that with the generalexcellence of the poems it should have been found necessaryto put in such stuff as, " Let Us Weep for Robie," and" TheDear Departed." We print elsewhere in this issue "TheLorelei," as perhaps most fully expressive of the general toneof the verses. The book is published by William Doxey of .San Francisco. It is prettjly bound in green and silver, withan appropriate design; is illustrated by Donald Hume Fry,Stanford.tog, and has an introduction by President Jordan. A.C. McClurg &' Co. $1.50.Mr. Edward M. Hulme, also of Leland Stanford, has is­sued a booklet of verse. His poetry lies in an altogether dif­ferent vein from Mr. Field's. The title of the book is " AnEvening Thought," and the strain is largely reminiscent andsolitary. Though the verses were almost all published in the" Sequoia," they are in no other sense college verse. Mr.Hulme reaches out after higher things,' and sadder things.The title-poem and two others deal directly with death; 0 the. verses on nature and flowers, which make up the larger por­tion of the book, are all tinged with regret, remorse, or dark- .ened reminiscence, they are all in minor chords. It is a mootquestion among undergraduates as to whether this kind ofverse is worth doing; be that as it may, Mr. Hulme 'has done, it well. 0_ N.

And that all realize that now is the timeto begin preparation for these contests is shown bythe great interest in the contests which are to be heldby the Department of Elocution and by the OratoricalAssociation.

Swift writes theWEEKLY this week that he will pre-pare an article for publication in theWEEKLY. This will be looked forward to with greatinterest. Opie Read, the noted writer of fiction, hasalso consented to give us a story in the followingcourteous terms:" I shall be pleased to contribute to your publica­tion, and will send you something as soon as I canget out from under the strain placed upon me by thecontracts now in hand. I have no sketch or storyprepared; if I had I would send it forthwith. Ihope, however, that I may soon appear in your grace­ful columns."Amid general rejoicing our team wonSa turday the first game in the cham-pionship series with Michigan. Thevictory was not easily won-the teams were too nearbeing evenly matched for that-hence the game wasintensely interesting to watch and for some timedoubtful in result.FIRST GAMEWON.Two more victories, according to the agreement,are needed, at this writing, to make the Universityrecognized champion of the West. The game Mon­day with Detroit League team showed a slight relax­ation in certain individual players.

University ofMichigan baseball team invaded Chicago flushed withvictories in a dozen contests this season, but pasttriumphs did not exercise their potent charm and theWolverines fell by the wayside. They also fell downat several other places, notably on the bases, quiteoften at the bat and when the ebbtide had ceased thescore stood 7 to 3 in favor of the Maroons.Without a question the game itself was the great­est baseball contest ever waged on Marshall field.The 'Varsity nine appeared at its best, and there isevery probability that Michigan did the same. Theold dodge of "hard luck," could not apply to thevisitors Saturday, as from beginning to end theyplayed great ball, only the 'Varsity made more runsthan they did, and that tells the whole story. Theman who always" told you so" might find in Win­ston's unassisted double play, Herschberger's brilliantcatch in center field, and Nichols' home run, elementsof chance, but the game of fortune seldom holds outfor nine innings.That the Michigan men failed to win a victory wasno fault of theirs, for if ever a team fought againstodds they did. Every artifice of the national sportwas employed to pull the game out of the hole, butall to no purpose. Coach Sexton ordered his cubs,at the beginning, to send the ball out of the lot, butas that did not work, bunting was employed as a finalresort. In this trick of the game they were experts,and five out of the ten hits made off Clarke belongedto the snail order.The style of game Chicago put up was seen to best�dvanta�e in the sixth inning. With no one out Watkins, Holmes and Bloomingston filled the baseson successive safe bunts. It looked like runs butClarke was in the way. With some teasing he ca­j oled Shields into going out to Winston on a high fly.McKenzie of lofty purpose sent a fly of the samedimensions to center field and everybody started torun. Herschberger shattered their ambition by neatlyscooping it in, and all was quiet ill the Michigan sec­tions of the grand stand. The last victim was Low­ney, and he was thrown out at first by Sweet.The game began by the visitors going to bat.Clarke started in as if the plate wasn't nearly largeenough, and both Hollister and McKinney got theirwalking papers. The former came in on Watkins' hitto left. Michigan did not meddle with the home platefor six innings, but it took the sharpest kind of field­ing to keep them from it. In the fourth with twomen on bases, Lowney sent a liner, dropping sparks,to Winston. Bloomingston was on second and startedfor third. Winston not only caught the ball, butlanded on second, completing a double play with morethan the ordinary fireworks about it.Michigan succeeded in renewing the acquaintancewith home plate in the eighth and the ninth innings,when Holmes and Deans scored. For Chicago, Nich­ols and Sweet came home in the second inning, Ad­kinson made one tally in the third, Clarke one in thefourth. In the eighth Clarke made a hit and Sweetgot a life on an error by Bloomingston. Watkinslooked anxious when Nichols came to bat. It is pos­sible that he was, for rumor has it that theJackson ParkII copper" who found the ball on the lake front, no­ticed stains on the sphere that could only have ema­nated from the lachrymal glands of the south paw.The score was now 7 to 2, but whispers that the Hu­mane Society would interfere caused Jones to becaught between the bases, and Adkinson, who had amania for stealiug bases, was properly caught in theact of pilfering third.

Nichols went in the box for the 'Var­sity at first, but gave way to Clarke in the sixth inn­ing. The hero of Saturday's game succeeded inholding down the visitors for just one inning, butlater the leaguers became quite familiar with Henry'scurves. Hard hitting characterized the whole con­test and home runs were numerous; Jones made onein the first inning, Burnett one in the fifth, Pike onein the sixth and Gillen one in the seventh.

Some days since Robert Edgren threw thehammer one 11 uudred and forty-seven feet, seveninches, in a regular trial. The throw was duly at­tested, and will no doubt be received as a record.Mitchell's throw of one hundred and forty-five feet,two inches, was hitherto the best. The track athleticteam of the University of California which will againcome east this spring is better than ever before.Dyer, ho1cling records of fifteen and four-fifths secondsin the high and twenty-five and one-fifth seconds inthe low hurdles, and Barnes, ten and one-fifth secondsin the hundred yard dash, have left the team; butwith Hupp, who has run repeatedly in ten and one­fifth and is said to have reached even time, in place ofBarnes; with the addition of Lloyd, pole-vaulter,with a record of ten feet eight inches, and Brown whohas done the mile in 4:30, and with the old men,Torrey, Woolsey, Koch, Edgren, Dorn and CaptainMerwin, California ought to win easily from every­thing except Pennsylvania, and perhaps Harvard andYale. The team will unfortunately meet nothing ofany note in the east, in special games. Perhaps, sav­ing their presence, this is the safest thing for theeasterners.She was walk iug with my rival,As they chanced to homeward roam,It was from my garret windowI was seeing Nellie home.- Williams Weekly.

The ambitious strife of the citycauses exhaustive drains upon themental and physical resources of men,and it is singular that more do not' seethe necessity for rest.But where can this be obtained? Thetime occupied in lying around in a ham­mock, or loafing on the veranda of somebusy hotel, does not refresh the mind orstrengthen the body. The proper relax­ation is to enter into the delights of pis­catorial pastime, hunting, boating, orsome other occupation that will brushaway the cobwebs from the musty cham­bers of the intellect. .And then the busy housewife and thechildren need the change of air andscenery. Not all families can afford themore expensive outings that involve avisit to some far away resort, but theGoodrich Line, with its magnificentsteamships, offers all the opportunity ofa pleasant, healthful trip at very moder­ate lexpense. In fact, it is cheaper tomake a trip ou this line to any of theresorts on Lake Michigan, than to re­main at home.
