IX. No. 16CHICAGO, ILL., JANUARY 31, 1900.!Delta lDelta of IDelta lkappa JEpsfIotl.With the opening of the new University ofChicago, of course all Chicago Dekes Wereanxious to see the chapter revived. In the au­tumn of 1892 three undergraduate Dekesentered the University: E. L. Tupper fromColgate University; W. H. Prescott from Adel-.bert College, aud , Henry D. Speer from Wil­liams College. This trio soon became acquaint­ed, and at once set on foot the movement tosecure a new charter qr the revival of the old.In this work they were heartily seconded bythe N orth western Alumni Association of DeltaKappa Epsilon.The untoward attitude of the faculty wassomewhat discouraging at first, but in the ab­sence of absolute prohibition of fraternities,the new chapter of. DKE continued its earlyactivity and got together a number of menwho would be the charter members. Duringthe first six months 'the following men werepledged to ._uKE: Harris. F. Williams, H. R.Caraway, R. W. Webster, C. S. Pike, F. H.Minard, H. C. Ellis, C. B. McGillivray and,L. B. Vaughan. These, with the three menalready Dekes, applied to the fraternity for acharter.The convention which met at Minneapolis inOctober, 1893, unanimously granted a charterto the applicants, and on December 13, 1893,the chapter was formally installed by theNorthwestern Alumni Association on the o ccasion of its annual banquet at the old GrandPacific hotel. As Mr. Tupper had graduated inJuly, 1893, he was not one of the charter mem­bers' but to his untiring and well-directed effortswere due largely the successful installation andbright_prospects of the new chapter.The first initiation held by the chapter wasin January, 1894, when Harry Chace, HenryGale and Harry Holloway were initiated. Onthis occasion Mr. F. D. Mitchell, Superintend­ent ot the Home for Incurables, tendered the initiation banquet at the Hotel Holland.Thus the chapter was started with a class ofmen who were active in every department ofcollege life. With such a beginning, and withthe hearty co-operation of a large and enthu­siastic body of alumni in Chicago, the chaptereasily maintained a high standard. Believingthat the success of the chapter dependedupon the activity of the student body, themembers entered into all University affairswith zeal. The chapter has at all times en­couraged its mem bers to put forth every effort,to bring success to the University when incompetition with other universities. It was un­doubtedlya good thing that the fraternitieswere in the University "tipon their good be­havior for a few years-a good thing for the'chapter and a good thing for the University.as the fraternities were thereby encouraged tomake the best' showing possible. They earnedtheir way, so to speak. The restrictions im­posed by the faculty proved to be of benefit tothe fraternities as it was realized that these r e-·strictions were the outcome of the influence ofthe unfavorable minority of the faculty,.and therefore something to be overcome andlived down. That these restrictions havebeen modified from time to time in favor ofthe fraternities is proof that the haternitieswere in the University for its good and thatthey work in harmony with it.As Delta Delta of Delta Kappa Epsilon wasthe first chapter to begin active existence in'the University its career and progress has beenunder the constant surveillance of all inter­ested parties. It has drawn its inspiration.largely from the University and the city. itselfand its success is a source of satisfaction to thealumni and to the Universitv.In the national fraternity-the chapter has amost enviable position, and admittedly is atruly representative chapter of Delta KappaEpsilon.

Mr. Theta Nu Epsilon.Opitz is, then, the first American whose talentshave been recognized in this manner, and thecircumstance is more remarkable when we con­sider that he is not yet twenty-five years ofage.Dr. Opitz obtained his first degree, that ofM. D., from Rush Medical College in r895._ Being not yet of legal age, and therefore notable to practice medicine in Illinois, he enteredour University and obtained the degree ofBachelor �of Science in r897. After doingsome post-graduate work here, he sailed forEurope and entered the University of Vienna.This institution he shortly afterwards left forthe University of Breslau, where he entered asa candidate for the degree of Doctor of Phil­osophy and where he became a Voluntar (vol­untary assistant) along with hundreds ofGermans who are constantly striving for theposition of Assistent. A foreigner has usuallyreached his summit when he becomes a Vo lun­tar, but Germans may look upward to becomingan Assistent, and perhaps later a Priv at-Dozent.The professorship is a goal to be reached onlyat an advanced age.IIDr. Opitz's special line is haemodynamics,concerning which he has published a numberof investigations as well as many articles inthe leading German and American medicaljournals. An especially valuable contributionby him on the theory of oedema was first pub­lished in the journal of the American'[McdicalAssociation. ,University Postal Service.Last fall at Yale University, aU. S. PostOffice was established on the campus. Wehave no such convenience, but we are favoredby a special system of delivery. In the matterof collections, which are made regularly sixtimes a day, we have no advantage over ourneighbors. In delivery, however, we have adecided advantage. There is a special post­man who bring s mail only to' the University,and who comes four times a day, twice in themorning and twice in the afternoon. Thesefour deliveries are made to the offices in Cobb,Haskell and Kent, and to the Library .. To thedormitories and to the other buildings, onlythree deliveries are made, which is the samenumber that is made to other -people in thispart of the city. This is not all of the system,for a large number of letters come addressedto the University without specifying the par­ticular building or room. These go to theFaculty Exchange where they are redirectedif possible or are put into private letter boxes.At about ten-thirty in the morning and threein the afternoon, a messenger takes the crr-mailfrom the Faculty Exchange and distributes itto the various offices and buildings, and in thecase of the men's dormitories, to the individualrooms. Mail which cannot be delivered forlack of addresses or some other reason is heldten days, and if not then called for, is returnedto the Hyde Park station.739'wtc;mI�g@E-D!/MN:.:)* )t;tf.J>*;;:,2$.{:!M;'r>V�;�7X·:� F =tti2¢:>¥I ...... j L� TT ..... cf. ! i� ! � :t iJ�(' �'P. The' I As You Like It" Performance.When the intention of the University au­thorities to elaborate Commencement weekceremonies into a Decennial celebration of thefounding of the University was first announced,Mr. Clark and Mr. Blanchard decided to pre­sent an elaborate student performance ofShakespeare's "As You Like It" as the PublicSpeaking Department's contribution to thefestivities. Early in the Autumn quarter thisplan was made known to the students, and Mr.Clark began the task of organizing and drilling-th e considerable number of aspiring dramaticartists who presented themselves for approval.A tentative assignment of parts was made andinformal rehearsals were begun.. At present over sixty students are hard atwork with their lines, and competition prom­ises to be lively. As it is impossible to hearthis large number at one meeting, the companyhas been divided into groups according to thecharacters represented, and once each week ata definite time every Rosalind, every Orlando,and every candidate for every other part isgiven a chance to show his or her progress.As yet there has been no attempt at anythingapproaching a rehearsal; each character readshis Iines separately, Mr. Clark or some studentfilling the gaps in the dialogue. These read­ings are usually held in Kent theater or in thesmall room used for public speaking classesadjoining. The task of selecting a cast willbe long and arduous; no successtul candidatefor any character will be chosen before thefirst of May.The play will be given June r ath, probablyon the campus north of Haskell and oppositeCobb Hall, that favorite pleasant weatherlounging place. The methods to be employedfor the changing of the scenes have notyet been decided upon. Some have sug­gested that a stage be constructed spaciousenough to permit the different scenes to bedivided or boxed off from each other. It isprobable, however, that no tradition of dramat­ic art will be infringed upon, and that the usualmovable properties, rocks, streams, cottagesand other paraphernalia will be used. Com­mittees will be chosen from the company toattend to the staging, costuming and otherdetails. In regard to the costume of Rosalindno action has been taken, the daily papers not- withstanding. As a result of the atrociousaccounts which the newspapers have publishedin regard to this matter, a Press committee hasbeen appointed, with A. E. Bestor as chair­man, to take steps to prevent the recurrence ofsuch brazenly untrue sensational reports. Thiscommittee has adopted a plan to blacklist andshut off from news any University reporter inwhose paper false statements appear. Thecommittee is willing and anxious to give outany information which the reporters may need;however, if this privilege is abused by exagger­ation, an earnest attempt to discipline theoffender will be made.The expense of the entire performance willprobably be over a thousand dollars. Thequestion as to the advisability of charging anadmission fee, in order to defray a part of theexpense, is still under debate. It is probable,however, that there will be two performancesand that after the first, played before an invitedaudience, a second will be given to which anominal admission fee will be charged.The Department of Public Speaking ispleased with the dramatic ability shownthus far, and has expressed great confidence inthe entire success of the undertaking. Thebeauty and effectiveness of one of Shakes­peare's woodland plays is trebled when playedunder the open sky and in a miniature green­wood--its natural environment--and many anamateur performance given on a college cam­pus has been more successful than the usualprofessional ones given on the legitimatestage. The famous English com pany thattraveled about during the summer months witha repertory of Shakespeare's wonderful dramaswill long be remembered. Last year the Vas­sar students played "Midsummer Night'sDream" on the campus at night. With dark­ness and torchlight to heighten the enchant­ment of the play, the performance was adelightful success. Mr. Clark has said he isassured that Chicago's proguction of "As YouLike I t" will equal the high standard to whichVassar attained in a play of similar nature.Considering the unflagging energy Mr. Clarkhas shown, there can be no doubt that the De­cennial celebration will be a pleasure for theUniversity's distinguished guests, a source ofpride for University st'urle nts, and for AlmaMater, herself, an abiding honor. ,740SOCIETY NEWS.A cotillion preceded by a short dance pro­gramme was given by the Phi Delta Thetachapter Friday evening, at the Chicago Beachhotel.

The challenge of the Fresh­men for a full track meet to be held in Febru-ary was accepted, and Ferd Horton was electedcaptain of the Sophomore team. Several otherimportant questions have been discussed amongmem bers of the class, but were not broughtbefore the meeting because of lack of time.One was that the editors of the Cap and Gownbe consulted, and if they proved favorable tothe idea, that the class teams have their pic­tures taken and inserted in the Cap and Gownfor 190r. These various marks of honor by the.class to its most active members should provea great stimulous to class spirit. -It Was further proposed that all '03 men whohave 'won their 'C's be permitted to wear thenumerals.

The attitude ofreverence with which the average studentlistens to the opening prayer fades away whenthe speaker takes the floor. Before the ad­dress is finished he has entirely forgotten thathe is attending a religious service. He is in alecture room again, and listening to a lecture,attention to which is not imperative; conse­quently he slips into indifference, and gener­ally, before the next day, has forgotten thevery title of the address.Every student, no matter of what denomina­tion, no matter how agnostical or atheistical,will be raised to a higher moral plane by at­tending, once each week, chapel exercises ofan entirely religious nature; and will welcomean opportunity to put aside everything for anhour that he may listen, in a simple-heartedway, to the teachings of earnest men.We are aware that chapel exercises conduct­ed before the entire student body are im possibleunder the present conditions; that lack of roomin the chapel compels the present system ofdifferent hours for dffferenf colleges; and thatthe real University chapel is still an architect'sdream. Consequently, these changes whichwe have advocated are a trifle Utopian. A fullhour devoted to chapel exercises three or fourtimes a week would make too great a demandupon the time of the U niversity chaplain, thespeakers, and the choir. Nevertheless, we re­peat that in our belief the majority of studentsdesire a chapel assembly of longer duration,attended by the entire student body, or at leastby all undergraduates, and espec-ially, exercisescompletely religious in character.EDITORIAL BOARD.GEORGE A.

The exercises, asheld at present, consist of a short prayer, a chantby the choir, the dean's announcements for theweek, and an entertaining address by someprofessor, upon a topic with little bearing up­on religion.

Great stunt, eh 7"Charlie followed the three across Fifty­seventh street for a moment perplexed. Theydashed past one building, round the end ofanother and presently came upon a crowdgathered about a couple of stone benches. Itwas a pretty quiet meeting, Charlie thought,. but he soon understood that things had to beconducted secretly and without any noise, be­cause a dark plot was being formed against theLaws and in their own Quadrangle too.The affair was well fixed up before Charley "Already," shouted the leader. "One, two,· three."and his companions arrived but he managed to. get the gist of it. The program was to mis.-lead the large body of the Laws by capturing. one of their number and dragging him off inone direction so that the real coups could bemade in another place with the Laws absent.'A dozen or so men were detailed to carry outthe minor part of the business, and Charliefound himself with his three friends amongthis number. He should have liked to bewhere there was more fun going on, but hethought it best to carry out the part assignedto him without kicking.The meeting broke up, and Charley with hiscrowd dropped in behind a building' and waited.- When a man came out 'and down the steps, itwas the work of a moment to rush, surroundhim, and carry him off. He didn't make much , 744"All right, fellows," said the leader of thethe crowd, "now let's give the duffer a swingdown the slope into the canal." Charlie didn't· have time to make up his mind what the canalwas, for the others picked the Law man upand stated off in a hurry.Presently they came out on the Midway,and Charlie saw right in the middle of it awide stream or canal of water. He rubbed hiseyes.They swung the struggling Law man backand forth on the bank, and dropped him intothe canal. Charlie watched him splash abouta moment, and shuddered as the_ black watergurgled over his head once.Then from far off, on the other side of thecampus came a peculiar yell. Instantly hiscompanions answered it with a deafening shout· of triumph. Charlie jumped at the sound,' felta dizziness in his head, rubbed his eyes hard,one of his feet seemed to fall from some. place,and he found himself sitting erect and staringout of his window at Physiology across theway. Down on the dreary campus two forlorn­looking women "grad" students were biddingeach other an affectionate good-night.C. M. V. P.

Two of these meets will beheld in our own gymnasium, and it is hopedthat every member of the University, who 1Sable will be present on these two occasions tolend his heartiest support to the team.* * *The first meet on February second is withthe Central Y. M. C. A., and is open to anystudents who want to enter it. This meettakes place in our "gym." This next meet alsotaking place in our "gym" is on February 20,with Michigan. Only ten men will competeon each side and this meet is the one at whicha large and enthusiastic attendance on the partof the students is particularly desired by CoachStagg and Captain Moloney. On March sec­ond occurs the Western Indoor Championshipat Milwaukee, which is open to all who wish toenter. March nineth the team goes to NotreDame for the triangular meet with Illinoisand Notre Dame. Twelve men will make thetrip, and the mile and two mile runs will bothbe among the events contested by them. Wemeet Michigan at Ann Arbor again on Marchsixteenth, when ten men will compete on eachside.* * *According to Captain Moloney the team isas yet rather an unknown quantity. Of lastyear's team there are eight left in college: W.A. and F. G. Moloney, Lord, Hulbert, Manning,Leffingwell, Pettit and F. ,M. Horton; and inaddition to these veterans there are the incom­ing freshmen among whom there seems to besome very promising material.* * *The different events will probably be takencare of somewhat as follows: Capt. Moloneywill look after the quarter mile. Lord, with F.M. Horton as a running mate, ought to cleanup the half-mile, for the man who beats Lordwill have to do better than 2:05 indoors, andthat kind of a runner is scarce in the West justnow. N ow that Baker of North western is out ofthe way, Hulbert can surely, if he keeps up tohis old standard, capture the mile and he will be relied upon as a first place man. In the sprintsLeffingwell and Wellington will be expected towin points. In. the two mile run, the newevent in Western athletics, R. L. Henry andGrabo should, according to their present show­ing, do well, since they both have good nerveand staying qualities. The hurdles will be welltaken care of by Fred Moloney, Manning andF. O. Horton.* * *'As for the other events, Place has done 36feet, ' Jimmie" Henry, 35 feet; and Zell Pettitis nearly al ways sure to do 35 feet in the shotput. Petitt indeed is an all around man, andmay win points in several events. The high­jump, pole-vault and broad-jump seem to bein the hands of the freshmen, since Ferriss andMcLeish both do over 5 feet and6inches in thehigh jump and Kennedy will probably soon be,doing 10 feet or better in the pole vault. L.A. Hopkins, also a '04 man, has done the bestwork in the broad jump and will probably winpoints in the event. He will also run in theshort dashes. His brother D. Hopkins, whohas just entered this quarter, will run in thedashes and quarter-mile. Amberg, another'new man, ought to do well in the quarter. Onthe whole there is quite a bit of good materialand our chances of a successful season arenot at all slim.* **Last Friday afternoon at 4:15 in the gymna­sium the Freshman-Sophomore relay race tookplace. There were six men on a team, eachmari running two laps (286% yards), makingin all 1,720 yards, or nearly a mile. Roy Mer­rifield started for the Sophomores and DudleyHopkins for the Freshmen. Hopkins. whoran one of the fastest relays, gained severalyards for his class. In the second relay Ferrissgained a yard or two on Thomas, which placedthe Freshmen about ten yards ahead. FrankHorton, on the third relay running againstFoster, made up the ground lost and put theteams even again. Harry Smith ran abouteven with Pratt. Then Wellington ran a veryfast race and gained a good lead on Green­wood. Ferd Horton and L. A.
