VI, No. 30.CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, MAY 12, 1898.Wbo amI WbV.There's a hero that 'from childhoodIn my heart has kept his place;Fair, courageous, true and noble,Perfect in each manly grace.As the years pass, ever faithfulI to him and he to me;Never ardent youth and maidenLoved so dear and joyously.� ,f Every closest tie unites us,All our dreams and hopes are one;Life were dark without his presence,He's my soul's perennial sun.Are you wondering what his name is?Haven't you suspected yet?VI ell, my hero's an ideal .Whom I haven't ever met!OJ>PIKE AND HIS VIEWS.Mr. Pearlymann Pike never lacked an interestedaudience, partly, because he always knew somethingmean about somebody, and partly, because, more thanany other man, he knew the "in'arcls" of events.Things appeared to make it a point of happeningwhere he was, saved themselves up, .as it were, untilhe got there. Not one yellow dog could draw backhis ugly lip and snarl at another, but Mr. Pike wasthere just in time to sick him on. Only one event onSandy Creek had ever presumed to occur, unsanctioned by his presence-the breaking of Baalam Horneday's milldam, on the night of flood and tempest thatMrs. Pearlymann Pike .had selected to depart fromthis sorrowful world. Her bereaved husband hadafterwards been heard to remark that' 't.har wuz timeswhen bein' married wuz powerful unhandy." Mr. Pearlymann Pike's deliverances on women werealways listened to with the respect proper to be ac-,corded a man who had buried four wives, and was nowliving happily with the fifth. "Yes," he said, flourishing his right arm with the grace of a rhetorical circuit rider, "I've always noticed that a woman neversets any vally on a man's love, less'n she loves himback. An' , if she happen to love somebody else, she'drun this one through a grist mill, an' smile doin' .it, ifso be 'twould please tother fellow. Hit's the curusestthing upon yearth, how a gal that's keerful of the feelin's of every Iivin ' thing, dumb beasts an' all, '11 justtake py ure delight trompin' on some pore human, thathain't got no more sense than to git down at her feet an'be tromped on; though if a man is sich a plumb fool aster git down at a woman's feet, sheawtertrompon him."3I2 UNIVERSITy OF CHICAGO \VEEKL Y.The Office Sponge.Zeus with his thunderbolt, I· am with my officesponge, terrifying the nations, lest the dread age ofPyrrha return. By my instrument of power, as foreman of the News office, r rule men and devils. Thatsponge, crowding to the utmost that dingy, wooden pail,brings me respect and submission. Concentrated essenceof waterspout is its official name. It is the sword ofDamoc1es, hanging by the slender thread of mypatience, and dire destruction to him beneath, if onceit begins its descent. Like a dynamite bomb, it is akinetic mass of untold woe and disaster.Nay, it is more. Drunk with pride of power, itbides its time. It is, I feel, the power behind thethrone. I am sultan now, but Allah forbid that mysubjects ever discover that -my dread of my force ofJ anizaries is great as theirs. How long can I be surethat it will not rise against me, and I be overwhelmedby its resistless tide? Truly, the sponge maintainsorder, and fosters industry, not I. It is our Louis XVI. The office, c'est 111oi, drips from its every pore,when in the darkness and silence after the rest havegone, I lift it from its pail and regard it with gratitudeand awe.0, TemporalThey were dining at the club, and the Southerner,as is the wont of Southerners, had the floor."Yes, sah," he said,thumping the table for emphasis. ' 'times have certainly changed since thewar. Gentlemen are notwhat they used to be, sah.Why, before the war, sah,if a man called you a liar,you called that man out,sah. He paid for the insult with his blood, sah. Butnow, if a man calls you a liar, why, what do you do?D-n it, you say chestnuts, sah, chestnuts!"tTHE NOTE = BOOK.The seventh annual contest of the Northern Oratorical League was won by the Michigan representative at Evanston on Friday, May 6. The contest,taken for all in all, was neither. better nor worse thanthe average. There was the same absence of vital·subject matter, the same rhetorical insincerity, thesame struggle for effect, that seem to be the inevitableaccompaniments of oratorical contests.There is no doubt that a certain good may resultfrom exhibitions of this kind. A large number ofstudents, struggling to represent their respective colleges, are incited to participate in the preliminaries,and latent talent is thus discovered and, developed.But the tendency of the whole contest system is toproduce a class of so-called orations, lacking in originality, weak in logic, overwrought in rhetoric, and astyle of delivery fixed, precise, affected and lackingin spontaneity. .These faults were quite apparent on Friday last.To our mind the best speakers were those from Iowaand· Oberlin, especially the former. In spite of arather unpleasant voice and some awkwardness ofmanner, Mr. Williams was the only speaker whomoved the heart. There was an honesty and frankness of manner and an emotional grip in his voice thatwon him the attention and sympathy of the audience.He spoke to not for his hearers. Mr. Long, of Oberlin, had also the power of the orator. His style was straightforward and unconscious, and what he lackedwas the knowledge that would have enabled him touse his powers to the best advantage. The speakerfrom Northwestern- was cold. He had no emotionalpower, and endeavored to impress. his audience byloudness and a mass of affected gestures. Wisconsin'srepresentative was wearying1y monotonous and showed'little natural oratorical ability. Mr. Norton, of Chicago, had a rich voice and some magnetism, butseemed to lose all his self-control, and so spoiled anychance he might have had. The winner, Mr. Simons,has a good presence and a good voice: but struck usas one who had been well trained rather than one whowas' naturally an orator. Precision of gesture, oftransition, of inflection, stamped his work throughout,until one longed for a slip to show he was not all mechanical, Not but that h� had power, but his effectswere so evidently prepar,ed that one's attention wasdrawn to them rather than to what he was saying.Much good may come from these contests, but notuntil judges of matter and of manner are selected whowill judge the contests in the light of their value inpreparing men for the world. The speeches must dealwith live subjects, asa man of the world would. Thedelivery must be direct, forceful and unstrained: anduntil we get critics who will put the stamp of disapproval upon the present fun of contests, they will continue to foster that affectation which causes 'oratorical-�RSITY OF CHICAGO WEE�Y.contests to be the laughing-stock of cultivated men.and women of the world.Junior Finals.- An - interesting program 'has beenarranged for the Junior Finals on Friday night 'of thisweek. The five speakers _ are the survivors of fiftywho entered the preliminaries. Since these have morethan usual ability, the contest for the Ferdinand Peckprize will be close and intensely interesting. TheMandolin Club will play. After the contest Presidentand Mrs. Harper give a reception in their home tothe contestants and the members of the j uniorCollege.Truth in the Et.hics Class.:-Students in ethics arepondering over the morality involved when an intelli.gent and honest gentleman makes the statement thatthe whole matter resolves itself into the si112ple question of the difference between the oxypropelendiisoamylarninical self and the heteroalterocupidolackadaisical self.The New Director of the Press.-Mr. Ned ArdenFlood of Meadville, Pennsylvania, who -has recentlyaccepted the Directorship of the Press Division of theUniversity of Chicago, brings to the position the wellorganized results of a wide experience in the publishing business, together with a thorough familiarity withthe technicalities of editorial work. Since his graduation from Johns Hopkins University in 1890, Mr.Flood has been an assistant editor on the staff ofTlze Chautauoua n Magazine, the official organ of theChautauqua Reading Circle, and has also been superintendent of the firm of Flood & Vincent, publishersof the Chautauqua text-books. In addition to theseregular positions, he has served for ten years as managing editor of Tlze Clzautauqua Assembly Herald, aneight-page daily paper published during July andAugust at Chautauqua, N. Y. Although Mr. Floodhas devoted himself chiefly to the mastery of the details and general principles of printing, publishing,advertising, and editorial management, he has foundtime for continuing his studies in Economics and Political Science, as a result of which he has contributed anumber of articles to Tlze Cltautanquan and other magazines, and for several years has given' a course oflectures on Social Economics before the students ofA11eghany College, Meadvi11e, Penn. The University is fortunate in securing as Director of the Pre"ss ayoung, able, .and energetic man, who combines withtechnical. knowledge of the business side of the position, a sympathy with academic life and an appreciation of editorial problems.A Scare.:-Passing through the hall the other day,the reporter heard sounds that resembled the phonographic reproduction of the ravings of John McCullough. He entered one of the rooms as a very peacefullooking fellow advanced to the platform, and began an harangue that would have done credit to a Rus-'sian nihilist. His eyes became bloodshot. His armssawed the air. His lips were parched. The reporter,escaped, and afterwards learned that no revolutionwas being cooked up in this brick-wa11ed room. Itwas only the quarterly declamation contest.The. C. A. C. Dinner.- The Chicago Alumni Clubheld its first banquet at the Pullman Cafe Wednesdayevening, May 4. A most delightful evening was spenttalking over old times. President Harper addressedthe club. Among the other speakers were Phil A11en,Gale, Steig meyer and Brown.An Arrthropo log ic Carrnen.s=A student in a classof Prof. Starr's handed us the following effusion,which he alleges he found on the desk of the greatan thropologist:How fondly I dote on Antiquity��Jreasures,As the relics of primitive men I explore;The Past is a store-house of mystical pleasures,Full of Sin os, Albinos and Todas galore.How delightful to muse on the age Mesozoic,And the heathen who lived in that primitive time;Its "survi vals" and fossils .and freaks prehistoricAwaken within me emotion sublime., What a.pleasing sensation 'twould be to discoverFraternal relation 'twixt monkey and man;The "missing link's" cache could I only uncoverThe gulf 'tween the Present and Past I could span.And oh! how I long to reach back o'er the agesAnd embrace my pre-Adamite ancestors old;My soul, how it yearns to commune with the sagesWhose antediluvian bones I behold! .The only rea::;o!l which could possibly induce us toprint this is that of' all the spring-time verses withUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.which we have been deluged it is the worst. Far be itfrom us to impugn Prof. Starr's achievements as auanthropologist, but we beg him the next time he approaches the "land of gold" to turn back. And if anyyouth expects to be a poet, we counsel him by theawful example above to avoid anthropology as hewould the bogs of Philistia ..Glee and Mandolin CIub.-The annual election ofthe Glee and Mandolin Club will be held in the chapelon Wednesday, May 18, at 5 o'clock.

Boththe Northwestern team, spurred on by the victory oftheir colleagues on the track, and our team, bent onrevenge for the defeat of their colleagues, put upsplendid games. We won by our bunching of hits.Both teams fielded well, but Smith had the best ofHunter in the box.We were greatly disappointed that Northwesternshould score at all. Up to the ninth inning .she hadfailed to make a run. Then, with two men out,Chaddock got a two-bagger which brought in Northwestern's one run. In batting· Gardner did greatwork, knocking out a brace of doubles and one Ofsingles. In the outfield Southard did some very neatwork.Smith watched bases closely, and the only man whotried to steal was nipped by a quick throw of Gardner.Altogether the team work of the Chicagos was excellent and showed improvement, but the improvementin batting was slower.The score of the game is as follows:Northwest'n.

The track meet wasfull of surprises and disappointments for Chicago.Chicago started off poorly. Burroughs lost both the110 and 220-yd dashes to the speedy Jones. No Chicago man qualified for the finals in the 220-yd hurdles, and Northwestern received 9 points. Brown ofNorthwestern won the high hurdles, but Herschberger finished a very close second. Parker of Chicagomade a very good showing in the walk, and woneasily. Northwestern was far superior in the fieldevents, and allowed Chicago but one first, which wasthe discus. Herschberger had hurt his foot in thehigh jump, and consequently he did not enter the polevauLt, which event he was sure to have won.Following is a summary of the contest:100-yd dash-Jones, Northwestern, first; Burroughs, Chicago, second; Elliott, Northwestern, third.
