The occasion brought here many distin­guished Orientalists and Scientists. The HaskellMuseum is one of the most handsome structures onthe Quadrangle. It is a recognition on the part ofthe Occident of the truth chiseled in the' wall of thebuilding-Lux ex Oriente. In connection with itsdedication able addresses were delivered by ProfessorLyon of Harvard, Professor Jackson of Col um bia andProfessor Smith of Glasgow. At the dedicatory ex­ercises proper the invocation was offered by DeanHulbert. The choir of Sinai Congregation renderedbeautifully two selections. Prof. G. S.

Theprincipal address of the occasion was delivered byProf. G. L. Goodale of Harvard, who spoke 011"Some of the Relations of the New Natural Historyto Modern Thought and Modern Life." His ablewords proved him a worthy successor to the greatAsa Gray in the chair of Botany at Cambridge. Atthe laying of the corner stones Professor Coulterspoke at the Botanical Laboratory, Professor Loeb atthe Physiological, Professor Jordan at the Anatomicaland Professor Whitman at the Zoological. The ad­dresses were happy and were well received. Presi­dent Harper assured us at the last convocation thatMiss Culver's gift to the fundamental science of bi­ology meant more ultimately to humanity than theestahlishment of ten thousand hospitals.There were also most interesting exercises of amore general nature. One of these was the presenta­tion in the tent by Divinity students of a 'service ofthe Synagogue in the time of Jesus Christ. R.

ProfessorJudson tendered earnest greeting in behalf of the Fac­ulties of Arts, Literature and Science, and H. L. Clarkrepresenting the students expressed the universalsentiment that this first visit might be but" the be­ginning of a closer and more personal friendshipbetween him and the University student body, be­tween him and the men he is making."The reply of Mr. Rockefeller was the utterance ofa straightforward, generous, unassuming man. Heexpressed his pleasure in being present with us, hisjudgment that Chicago was the center for a greatUniversity. "I am profoundly glad that I had any­thing to do with this affair," said he. And a mostsignificant statement corning from one whose indus­trial investments have brought such large returns wasthis, "It is the best investment I ever made in mylife." His address was received with great applause.President Harper's statement of the condition of theUniversity was as usual full of interest. Fortunate isthe University with so able and energetic and lovablea President. Growth, strong and healthy in all de­partments was noted. The largest gift received dur­ing the quarter was the Chicago Manual TrainingSchool. Nor was the inevitable paragraph on" needs" omitted. President Harper is of the Wil­liam Carey order; he expects great things and at­tempts great things. And, as he declared, " thesegifts must come if the University is to do for the Mis­sissippi Valley what should and must be done."The Convocation address was delivered by the Rev.Prof. George Adam Smith of Glasgow. ProfessorSmith spoke on the part which the Old Testamenthas played in the education of the race and how farits power to educate and inspire is affected by moderncrrtrcism. He paid a glowing tribute to the literary,political; social and moral influence exerted by theHebrew Scriptures and declared that influence undi­minished .. It was certainly a great privilege to hearso eminent a Biblical scholar and so powerful anorator as Professor Smith.The conferring of degrees assumed large propor­tions. Nearly seventy received regular college de­grees. The present class, be it remembered, is thefirst whose entire collegiate work was done at Chi­cago. The passing of these students had in it anelement of sadness, for they have been identified withthe University from. its beginning and they have leftupon the plastic life of the University of Chicago inall its departments a noble impress for all time.Among the ladies and gentlemen who received thedegree of doctor of philosophy or master of arts was ablind student, John B. Curtis. As a recognition of�uccess achieved against difficulties, the audienceUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.Jesus was a participant when He announced in Caper­naum the Messianic fulfillment.The pleasure of our festivities was greatly enhancedby the presence of the First Regiment Band. OnFriday evening they gave a military concert in themammoth tent. The march, "The University ofChicago," thus dedicated by the author, Mr. Hos­trawser, leader of the band, was received with greatenthusiasm and appreciation by th� students andfriends of the University present. The programdosed with the magnificent rendition of a cavalrycharge.Events distinctly social were, of course, a part ofthe celebration. The alumni were here in large num­bers.

There were also the en­joyable reception of the President, the reception toMr. Rockefeller at the Quadrangle Club and the oneto visiting scholars and friends at the formal opening. of Haskell Museum.The' Americanism of our interocean University iscertainly unquestionable after the outburst of patrioticsentiment on Independence Day. It is sure that nostudent could have been fonnd upon the campus, asScott would say, with soul so dead who never to him­self hath said, '.' This is my own, my native land.".The small boy and the firecracker were absent, nojingoistic pop bottles were uncorked, but the greatprinciples of liberty and the supreme duty of intelli­gent patriotism were emphasized.No higher distinction could have been conferred onthe University than the presentation of the nationalcolors by the First Infantry, Illinois National Guard.When the regiment had formed in, a hollow squareabout the flagstaff, Colonel Turner, in an inspiringaddress, presented the flag. President Harper, pledg­ing the U ni versity of Chicago to the truest patriotism,-accepted the honor. Then as cc Old Glory" ran upthe staff, and the thirteen stripes of red and white andthe forty-five stars on the field of blue, floated overthe Quadrangle, cheer after cheer broke from themultitude present.The oration of the day was delivered by Prof.. Bernard Moses, of the University of California, onc'The Conditions and Prospects of Democracy." Hiswords were serious and thoughtful. No corkscrewmovements were applied to the caudal extremityof the British lion. His leonine majesty did nottherefore roar. The professor stated that the condi­tion of Democracy was equality of social life. But theprogress _ of civilization brought inequality. The 965legitimate conclusion appears to be that Democracycharacterizes an earlier stage of political developmentand is not final. This is rather an unusual inferencefor an audience to draw on the Fourth of July. Inconclusion the orator eloquently appealed for con­tinual return to the principles and spirit of thefounders of the nation.Athletics also played an important role in the Quin­quennial celebration. It is a matter of deep congratu­lation that in the fourth year of academic history,Director Stagg and Captain Abells and their veteransshould present the University with the baseballchampionship of the West. It is also creditable totheir enterprise and sportsmanlike desire to meet foe­men worthy of their steel that they invited to Chicagothe Brown University team-champions of the East.Three games were played. The first game made itapparent that Greek was meeting Greek. The Chi­cago Greek tugged in the rope, however, score 1 to o.The second game went to the representatives ofRoger Williams, 13 to 3. The third and decisivestruggle, with batting honors for Chicago .and field­ing for Brown, ended with the score 6 to 5 in favor ofthe visitors.The battles occasioned intense interest, the teamswere so evenly· matched. The University may justlybe proud of the men who wore the maroon. Of oneChicago man we venture to say that he is the greatestplayer on the college diamond to-day. The highlyappreciative words in which Captain Fultz and hismen refer to their reception speaks volumes for thecourtesy, generous spirit and hospitality of the west­ern team.It remains for us to speak of the services of Convo­cation Sunday. The sermon was preached by Prof.George Adams Smith. His theme was: " Characteras the Duty and Response to Hope." The earnest,poetic, forceful words were worthy of a preacher" andscholar from the land of Chalmers and Burns. At theVesper service Rev. Dr. W. H. P. Faunce addressedthe University. He unites most happily evangelicalfervor with the highest culture. His appeal tostudents to engage in 'C the work, not of escaping fromthis world into a better, but in the work of makingthis world better," should not soon be forgotten.The benediction was pronounced and in the wordsof Dr. Faunce c, the greatest festival in the educationalhistory of the West" was ended. The fifth milestoneis past but where is the poet or the prophet who shallventure to look into the future and tell of the gloryand the honor which the centuries have in store for ourbeloved University?CC What makes that cat howl so?"cc I guess you'd howl if you were full of fiddlestrings.'

Already the centralcommittee of one of the parties in this state has sig­nified its willingness to assign some dates to Univer­sity students and doubtless the committees of some ofthe other parties will do likewise. The opportunitythus offered, to take an active part in the campaign,is certainly one to be appreciated, especially by themembers of the political science and political economydepartments. If the knowledge gained by these stu­dents in these departments is of any practical valuenow is the time to put it to the test.The registration of students for theREGISTRATION.summer quarter had reached nine hun-dred and twenty-five by Tuesday noon.

RICHARDSON.UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.A Trip Soutb.LETTER VIII.OBSERV A TrONS.By way of preface. It has occurred to us that apreface is necessary. Our letters are, of course,nearly ended, but that is immaterial. The writer iswilling to take his place with the author of ParadiseLost and plunge a preface in medias res. We feel, in­deed, that some word of explanation and, perhaps,extenuation is needful at this time, seeing that we areto leave the beaten paths of chronology and geogra­phy, and to carry into the lists the free lance of gen­eral remarks. Suffice it to say that there are phasesof American life and categories of experiences inci­dental to a collegiate tour which deserve more thanpassing notice. We speak no final word on the liv­ing issues to which we may refer and much that issaid would be pertinent concerning a trip in any sec­tion of our country. With these prefatory words weproceed to our observations.On good roads and bad. We found both kinds.While we rode on no Empire Express, yet we learnedthat our former impression concerning the poorness ofsouthern roads was erroneous. It has been overthirty years since the men, whose honored survivorsare still among us, visited the South. Now, rapidtransit on flat cars and a double-quick over plowedground, either before or after their hosts, are not cri­teria for judging the roads of to-day.T'hen there is that story of the suggestion made byArtemus Ward to the conductor of an Arkansas train.Years and years ago, gentle reader, you heard it, and,being young and unsophisticated, you smiled. Thehumorist grimly advised that the cow-catcher beplaced upon the rear end of the train to prevent ven­turesome bovine strollers from entering the cars andinjuring the passengers. We, 011 the other hand, canrecall an exciting chase our freight train gave a cow,and it is our firm conviction that if she had not takena tangent off into the woods we should ultimatelyha ve overtaken her . We never did like to ride onfreight trains, but sometimes, on branch lines, it isnecessary. They have an unconquerable propensityfor side-tracks. They make long stops and thenstart up suddenly just when you have found thestrawberries in the grass. On the whole, southernroads compare favorably now with western. Cer­tainly, this is true of such lines as the SouthernQueen & Crescent, L. and N. and Iron Mountain.The rolling stock is relatively better than the roadbed. This is saying much when we recall the condi­tion of some southern roads when the war closed. Youwill remember that the rails heated white in the cen­ters, upon piles of burning ties were twisted abouttrees into �<?\Y knots, This was discouraging to rail- 967road interests. No consideration of the South is ade­quate that omits the war with its great destruction.But the reorganization of industry on the basis offree labor, marvelous natural resources, the tide ofimmigration setting in, all prophesy great wealth andpower for the New South.On college expenses, including board. We have al­ready implied that there is not, in general, the wealthin the South which we find in the North. College istherefore possible to many young people only as thescale of expenses is nominally lower. And even thenthe struggle of ambition is often a desperate one. Nomore heroic chapter is being written in the book ofAmerican self-made men than the story of the efforts ofthe young men South as well as North who, blessedwith poverty and good health,are gaining an education.By "young men," we mean, of course, what the min­ister does when he addresses the whole congregationas "brethren."As a rule Southern students work very hard. Wemet one young man who told us that he frequentlystudied until two or three o'clock in the morning.We advised him to go to bed the same day he got up.He said further that his average standing was ninety­eight and one-third per cent. But when he incident­ally remarked that the teachers there" marked veryclose," our admiration knew no bounds. He evi­dently did not belong in the same category as the col­legian who complained that what broke him all upwas this studying between meals.The average expense for tuition is about forty dol­lars. Room rent is low because colleges are notusually in large cities. Board usually costs about twodollars a week. At one college club it was only onedollar and ten cents a week. The institution, a verygood one, advertises-" Sixty to one hundred dollarswill cover everything." Here, permit us to speak ofSouthern hospitality. Tradition is right. To expe­rience the kindness of a genuine Southern home is tocome away saying-the half was not told me. Eventhe porters at the depots catch the infection. In count­less numbers, apparently, they meet you; innumer­able hands reach eagerly for your luggage; a chorusof suave, cajoling voices, "Ca'y youah grip foh you,sab."On the late unpleasantness. We are able to announcetbat the war is over. The" fire-eater" as well as hewho waves "the bloody shirt" is passing. But ofcourse memory still walks the Southern battlefieldsand sheds a few tears on the grave where the LostCause is buried. It was our privilege to attend aBattle Abbey program given by the Daughters of theConfederacy. In the commemorative recitations, inthe stirring strains of " Dixie," in a young ladies' flagdrill with the" Bonnie Blue Flag" we caught some­thi�s of the s�irit which animated the South in h�r968 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKL Y�vain but heroic struggle. Nor are these people dis­loyal. Like Grady they profess devotion to theUnion but say the South has nothing for which toapologize. They believed themselves right and theycherish the memory of their dead. It was in BostonGrady said ; "Not for all the glories of New Englandwould I exchange the heritage my father left me inhis soldier death."But they are glad that the war ended as it did,that slavery is gone and our patrimony undivided." The war is the best thing that ever happened tothe South," said a man to me who, as a boy at M ur­freesboro, had traded biscuit to the Union soldiers forbullets. I have heard college orators pay a like tributeto Lincoln and to Lee. Southerners have learned inthe words of one who boasted of the bluest of SouthCarolina blood that when Wilkes Booth shot AbrahamLincoln, the magnanimous statesman of the far-seeingken, "the South lost the best friend it ever had."And the traveler from the North, as his feet press thefertile soil of Dixie, is profoundly glad that he walksupon Union ground, and a new gratitude, from whichanimosity is wholly absent, wells up in his heart tothe men who preserved the Republic.R. M. VAUGHAN.(Letters concluded next week.)'Varsity Vignettes.BILLY.Everybody knows Billy, for "Billy," as everyonecalls him, has the happy faculty of making a friend oran enemy out of everyone. True, his friends are farand away above the number of his enemies, and yet itis remarked that many a crowd of college rooters havehad cause to bitterly oppose him upon the grimy" gridiron," or taunt and jeer at him along the linesof the dusty diamond. A little thing like that, how­ever, does not bother Billy, for he knows it is only theprice he has to pay for his popularity, and after all isonly the creature of an unusually exciting inning or adesperately fought "down" and will vanish at themoment of victory and be forgotten forever.A friend to all athletes and an enemy to all over­zealous athletic admirers, Billy is 'a man after Stagg'sown heart when it comes to clearing a field or "spot­ting" a fence climber and is easily worth the weightof a dozen Hyde Park policemen when he starts in to"buck ::1gainst " the Snell Hall crowd during a Chi­cago Michigan game.We seniors remember in the days of our freshmanyears how when Billy was janitor and king of thegym, he was wont to supply 11S with all manner ofgymnastic sundries when our own supply-either lost,strayed or stolen-had left us destitute, and when to" cut " �y�. for the want of a shoe, a belt, or a gym�:" shirt was as dangerous to our collegiate 'soul's goodas to undertake to bluff the university examiner outof an entrance condition without an examination.Then it was that Billy the Boss became Billy theBenevolent, or Billy the Blessed, and made his wayinto the hearts of all of us, and where doubtless hisname and fame shall reverently remain until the oldgym. and its memories pass away forever or until-wehate to say it-the next exciting intercollegiate base-bal1 game.

R,UNIVERSITY, OF CI-iICAGO WEEKLY.An Alt-Amertcan Team.Chicago will have an all-American college baseballteam this summer, the first strictly amateur team iuthe country. F. D. Nichols and George Sawyer willbe .manager and assistant manager respectively. Theaggregation will be composed of stars of the firstmagnitude, Jones and Pike will catch; Nichols,Clarke and Brown will do the twirling. Letton, whofortwo years has played first base for Yale, will holddown the initial bag; and Darby, captain of the Grin­nell baseball team, will take turns with Letton. Han­nan, of the University of Michigan, will occupy'second base, and Gordon Clarke, of Chicago, the thirdcorner. McCornack, of Dartmouth, will play short,and Jerrems, of Yale, center field. Dewey, crackbatter of the Williams College team, will play in leftfield; while Hering, of Bucknell, or H. Clarke, ofChicago, will hold the position in right field.The team will play the stronger amateur teams inand around Chicago and a trip to Michigan wateringresorts will be made in August. The places to bevisited will probably be: Traverse City, Charlevoix,Muskegon, Manistee, Petoskey, Bay View and Ocono­mowoc. The first game will be played Saturday withthe Cranes on Marshall field.The Brown-Chicago Series.The third and last game of the series betweenBrown University and the Western Champions wasplayed on Marshall Field, Thursday. It was a battleof giants from start to finish, and not until the lastman in the last half of the last inning was out couldanyone tell to which team the game was going.Dunne, the left-handed pitcher of Brown, was in thebox for the visitors. He was hit quite freely, butmanaged to keep the hits well scattered at criticalmoments. Nichols, for the home team, pitched amagnificent game, but the old story of poor supportmust again be told. Capt. Fultz, of the Brown team,deserves much credit for his work. His playing'throughout the game was steady and inspiring to theteam. The score of 6 to 5 in favor of Brown tells the� struggle for victory. One of the delightful features.of the game was the gentlemanly conduct ,of bothteams on the field. The audience appreciated this.fact, and showed little or no partiality to the players.as they stepped to the plate. During the last fewinnings 'there was more genuine Chicago college spiritthan has ever before been seen on Marshall field. 969College Wit." Did you go to church yesterday? ""No; I slept at home.

The." silver men " havealready held a caucus and aim to convince the Uni­versity at large of the justice of their position.

In the meantime it is necessary thatthe silver and gold men meet in separate caucuses forthe purpose of choosing their represen ta ti yes.Intercollegiate Courtesy.One of the many pleasant features of the Brown­Chicago series of games is the courtesy. which theaudience has shown to the visitors. A good play iswell received no matter who makes it. The heavyhitters of both teams are applauded when they stepto the plate and it is seldom that a player is " guyed."This courtesy is indicative of the genial hospitality of The Girl of '99.011, fairer than the rose-hued shells l;ly pnrple Eastern seas,Oh, dainty as the lilac-flowers a-tremble in the breeze.Oh, sweeter than the breath of love when first it comes to man,Oh, fresher than all similes since this old world began!Her eyes are like the far-off blne where sea runs up to skyHer hair is softer, silkier, than wing of butterfly.A blush Hesperidean lies lightly on her cheeks,And fresher than all similes is every word she speaks!Four queens lie hid within the pack, fair girls these are for me,And be they dark or be they light, they all are fair to see.The Senior, Junior, Sophomore, they set my head awhirl,But only one is queen of Hearts, and she's the Freshman Girl !J.

This company is a corporation engaged in the busi­ness of buying and developing high grade city real estate andbas worked out and put into successful operation a method forthe investors of small sums of money whereby they get theadvantages and staying qualities of the capitalist's wealth.The plan of the company has commended itself to some of themost conservative business men and financiers in the country.The company issues investment certificates, and invests thefunds received thereon, in addition to its own foundation cap­ital, in its business. These certificates are for any desiredamount, and may be purchased by installment payments dur­ing a term of years. They afford small investors the followingsuperior advantages as a medium for accumulating investment.They are guaranteed by the corporation, principal and inter­est, and share pro rata in profits, thus combining unequaledsecurity and profit. The money paid in on them is not loaned,earning interest only, as by every other plan, but is invested inbusiness, to earn business profits, which in every successfulbusiness exceed interest. Investments are made solely inselected city property, bought to improve and develop, themost conservative, non-speculative and profitable business inwhich money can be engaged, as is evidenced by large fortunesbuilt up in every city. The country operates on the necessaryscale to secure the best results from its business. It has thepower to buy large tracts at wholesale prices, to improve andforce values, to protect against adverse conditions or to holdagainst periods of depression. The recent depression demon­strated the Uuion's ability not only to stand such times but toprofit by them. Having constant installment receipts, notstopped because paid in many small sums, it was enabled totake advantage of special bargains in propertyto be had insuch times. The company's plan constitutes it practical co-operation,enabling small investors to combine and gain the same advan­tages and large rate of profits capitalists secure by the use oflarge sums of money in this best of all investment fields, here­tofore beyond the reach of small investors. Its certificateholders have an undivided interest in an established companywith facilities for gaining the best results from its business.They are guaranteed against loss, share pro rata in profits, re­ceive 6 per cent annually and have surrender privileges notpossible in individual investment or smaller organizations.At maturity the company will pay back the full amount in­vested, with profits, in cash, in contrast to investments re­quiring a forced sale to realize on them; or the owner mayreinvest the entire sum in an income certificate and receivethereafter both iuterest and profits yearly in cash. Certificate­holders are not liable for any obligation or indebtedness of thecompany. The sources of profits to a matured certificate are,first, real estate profits, such as the individual capitalist has;second, profits resigned by those who withdraw their invest­ment and interest before maturity, and third, earnings byaccumulated profits. Profits being invested and accumulatedthrough the certificate term, the earnings thereon increase thedividend on the capital invested. The company limits itsbusiness to buying selected city real estate, because no othersecurity can equal it in safety or profit. In safety because inits nature such property has a substantial, recognized valueand assured stability that makes its possession virtually thepossession of the money itself, because it is at all times themoney's full equivalent, in safer form than in trust company'svaults. In profit, because the increased value of city realestate is forced by increased population - both inevitable,Statistics show that values increase in about double the ratioof the increase in population, The general offices of the company are 280 Broadway, New York, the Chicago office being inthe Woman's Temple.-From The Economist.VACATION TOURSTOCOLORADO, UTAHANDYELLOWSTON EPARKWe desire to announce a series of five Toursthrough the wonderlands of America.

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, healthfnl trip at very moder­ate expense.

There is so much advertisingmatter thrust upon the public in these days that only themost carefully worded ones will catch the eye. People readvadertisements much as they do the balance of the newspaperor magazme. They look at the headlines and instantly decidewhether there is anything in the article that win interest them.'1£ so, they read through it ; if not, they pass it by. Interest­ing advertisements are always interesting reading. The adver­tisements of Royal Baking Powder and those of Battle AxTobacco are read by many a person who never buys a can ofbaking powder or a plug of tobacco, simply because they arespicily written. The merchant who knows how to write his'advertisements or knows enough to have some one write themwho does know how, has an advantage over his competitorwhich only a similar knowledge on the part of the competitorcan overcome.We would like to have the columns of the WEEKLY bristlewith well written advertisements, such as will make our ad ver­tising columns as eagerly sought by our readers as the readingmatter. This we find is the case with HaT}_Je'l"'S, the Centu1'Y,the Ladies' Horne Journal and the Cosmopolitan, and it hasbeen found alike profitable for pu hlisher, readers and ad ver­tisers,CHARLES H.
