Russell Wiles, '01 �:__---������������������������������������),The Glee Club Concert.The eighth annual concert of the musicalclubs of the University was given on Tuesday,February 12, at Central Music Hall. In pointof interest attracted, both without and withinUniversity circles, as a social function, and inquality of music rendered by the three respect­ive clubs, it must be regarded as surpassing allprevious concerts as being the most successfularid pleasing appearance yet made by the mu­sical organizations of the University. A distincttriumph over past years was scored in theplanning -of the affair, in the program given, in the training which the clubs revealed, and thegeneral smoothness and grace with which theevening passed off.A considerable cause of this latter felicitywas the presence of an admirably dominantsocial tone in the audience. University societyhas never been so well represented at a gleeclub concert as it was at this one. The variousfraternities and sororities were present almostto a member, and occupied distinctive groupsof seats together, many of which were deco­rated with the respective colors of the socie­ties. In addition, Chicago society was well770represented in the boxes, and the occasiontook the nature of something more than auniversity concert-it was a mingling of collegeenthusiasm and friendly favor on the part ofprominent Chicagoans.Of the enthusiasm manifested throughoutthe evening, it may be said that it wasperhaps the most gratifying feature. It tookhold of the clubs, it stirred the audience, andgrew with each successive number on the pro­gram, until at the final singing of the AlmaMater, every Chicagoan rose to his feet in aburst of pride and emotion to join in thewords.To the clubs, however, in the care, in thespirit, and in the freedom and swing withwhich they played and sang, belongs the realglory of the concert. With a somewhat slen­der membership, especially noticeable in thecase of the Banjo Club, with numerous otherobstacles and difficulties to hinder and. contendwith, the results were pleasantly surprising;they were even bordering on the nature of arevelation. To neither the Glee, Banjo norMandolin Club is especial or superordinarypraise due. The Banjo Club, however, withbut a sextette of instruments, properly deservedthe rather marked appreciation of the audience.Repeatedly the Club was encored-after itsfirst number three times, and likewise after"Hunky Dory." It may be no more than justto say that it was the hit of the evening.The Mandolin club opened the program withSousa's "Hail to the Spirit of Liberty," andwas forced to begin the practice which con­tinued through the concert of responding withan encore to the commendation it received.The Glee Club followed with the surprising"City Choir," which prepared the audience forthe reception of its subsequent interestingsongs. In particular, the Glee Club's "Pickan­inny Babe" written by Lewis, '03 and sung forthe first time, "The Goblins Will Get You,"and "Mammy's Li'l Bay" were all well received.The Banjo Club was exceedingly original. inaddition to playing well, and introduced someuncommon features in their selections. RusselWiles '01 who played bass banjo, was "stunt"man, and with a brace of pistols, fog horns,a policeman's whistle and a giant rattle shockedthe hearers at unexpected moments. KelloggSpeed '01 also won an encore for the Mandolin club by a clever vocal interjection during theplaying of the "Medley, 1901."The program was made further interestingby the addition of two solo numbers, one avocal solo by Mr. Challiss '01, which proved adecided success, and the other an excellentbanjo solo by Mr. Claud Clay Rowden.PROGRAM.PART I.1.

McHenry, . )r'*FRATERNITIES AT THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO.Ill. Lam bda Rho of Beta Theta Pi.The historyof Beta Theta Pi at the U niver­sity of Chicago begins with that of the institu­tion itself. Long before the opening of thefirst college year preparation was being madeby the alumni in Chicago for the establishmentof a chapter in the new university as soon asits doors should open. With this" end in view,Albert Rich, of Michigan, Henry M. Echlin, ofNorthwestern, and Ralph P. Smith, of Denison,assumed the responsibility of selecting thecharter members from those who were to enterthe University in the fall. They found amongsuch intending students Warren P. Behan, ofthe Beloit chapter, and pledged six others:R. O. Dudley, E-. E. Todd, H. L. Olarke, H. J.Smith, E. O. Sisson and H. H. Hewitt. Owingto the exceptional conditions which attendedtheIoundatio n and rapid growth of so large aninstitution as the University of Chicago, it wasdeemed ad visable to diverge somewhat fromthe usual method of installing a chapter. Byspecial dispensation, therefore, secured fromthe general convention of Beta Theta Pi, thesix charter members were initiated by theNorth western chapter on the night of Septem­ber 30. 1892.During th efirst year of the University's ex­istence the position of all fraternities was pre­carious. Many of the faculty were averse tothem and a few were openly hostile. Thisperiod of dispute terminated with the recogni­tion of fratern-ities as fixtures at the college.During this time Lambda Rho was improvingits opportunities for�'growth and was makingfor itself a place in the social system of theUniversity. Horace G. Lozier was initiated in1893 and Ralph H. Hobart came to us from theBeloit chapter. In the summer of 1893 the Betaconvention had granted a charter to the newchapter. The formal installation and banquettook place on the 25th of January, 1894, underthe supervision of the Chicago alumni chapter.In the spring of the same year the Betastook the initiative in the chapter-house q ues­tion and rented a house at 5537 Lexingtonavenue. From this beginning they have mi­grated by several stages eastward to theirpresent location on Washington avenue.Beta Theta Pi at the University of Chicago,*EDITORS NOTE:-This_series of articles was begun inthe issue of January 3 r. ,during all its history, has been active in thevarious fields of college life, and on its roll arethe names of many men who became leadersamong their fellows and brought enduringhonor to their Alma Mater. They have not allbeen followers of the same ideal, but repre­sentative of the numerous interests of a greatuni versity. The chapter does not underesti­mate the mutual advantages of friendly com­petition among fraternities, and, on the other. hand it recognizes the dangers which maycome from ill-natured rivalry and dissension.The aim of Betas in their relations with thestudent body and with rival fraternities isfairness. Their motto we may call "NoblesseOblige." ELIOT BLACKWELDER.IV. The Chicago Chapter of Alpha Delta Phi.The Chicago Chapter of Alpha Delta Phisprang from a body of undergraduates knownas the "Lion's Head." - This club, organized inDecember of 1894, was formed-by a number ofmen prominent in all university matters, in­cluding athletics. It was largely through asso­ciation in the various athletic organizations ofthe university that they came first to knoweach other; finding the acquaintance pleasant,and desiring to perpetuate it, they founded theclub. These original members were Harry D.Abells,' Henry M. Adkinson, Scott Brown,Henry T. Clarke, Jr., Forest Grant, C. B. Neel,F. D. Nichols and J. E. Raycroft. The pres­ence of Mr. Clark, who, (besides being a mandear to the hearts of all the men of his day)was a loyal member of Sigma Phi (Williams,'96) indicates that the primary intention of theclub was not to form a nucleus for any frater­nity. Indeed, some of the members wereopposed to the fraternity system.But man proposes. Opportunity saw in theclub a wide gate to knock at. Oertain resi­dents of Ohicago, members of Alpha Delta Phiquickly recognized in the combination of the"Lion's Head" and the University of Chicagoa chance to further the interests of the frater­nity. For a long time previous the Penin­sular chapter (University of Michigan) hadalonerepresented Alpha Delta Phi in the stateswest of Ohio. In 189 I thefraternity had grant­ed a charter to the University of Minnesota. /773/ N ow it was seen that Chicago was the necessaryniche to give Alpha Delta Phi a firm grasp inthe West. The idea once suggested was rapid­ly fashioned into action. A petition was pre­pared and presented to the general conventionof the fraternity, meeting at New York in thespring of 1895. The topographical importanceof the university and the reputation of themembers of the petitioning body justified theenthusiastic support which was lent by thegraduate Alpha Deltas in the city; and the re­sult was a favorable consideration by the fra­ternity. After a number of delays the charterwas granted. On March zoth., 1896, at theAuditorium Hotel, under the guidance of theundergraduate chapters ot Michigan and Min­nesota, and with the assistance of the graduatechapter of the City of Chicago, the ten mem­bers of "Lion's Head" were conducted intoAlpha Delta Phi. Mr. Clarke of course hadnot joined in the petition, but C. B. BachelleN ott W. Flint and Clarence B. Herschbergerhad been added to the roll.The new chapter, in accordance with thecustom generally prevalent in the fraternity,took the name of the university. The Chicagochapter, then, set up a home for itself in thehouse at the southwest corner of Fifty-seventhstreet and Monroe avenue; where the doorstood ajar to Alpha Deltas for three years.The first men to be initiated were J. W. Linnin May and Gordon Clarke in June of 1896. Inthe early part of 1897 were added Charles L. Bur­roughs, Charles V. Drew and Walter S. Ken­nedy. From that time on the chapter has in­creased steadily in power and reputation. Thepresent active chapter contains nineteen men.The chapter, in consequence of a policy adop­ted in the beginning and steadily adhered to,has been singularly fortunate in the number ofits members who have pursued their waythrough all the quicksands of our quarter sys­to a degree. That policy was to invite to fel­lowship only men who could stay long enoughto find out the real meaning of fraternity. Theidea of admitting, for whatever reason, menwho intended residence for only a few quar­ters, or who, on account of "trouble with thedean" were forced to contemplate retirementbefore they could learn more about the frater­nity than a song or two and the house address-this idea has been discouraged by Alpha Delta Phi. The members of the chapter havebeen advised also to take a constant interest inall the schemes for enriching "college life" andtransforming a congeties of students into anAmerican university. Whether undergraduatehonors are worth anything may be very welldebated, but no one can afford to suppose thatthe notice and admiration of his associates isvalueless. The Chicago chapter of Alpha Del­ta Phi believes in helping on all efforts tomake life better and livelier. The roll of hon­ors it has won in following out this belief isvery long. It includes, one may pause to say,the presidency of four senior classes out of six,and the captaincy of four base- ball teams, fourtennis teams, three football teams and twotrack teams in the seven years of the generalathletic organization.The house at 5700 Monroe avenue, seemedto shrink as the chapter grew. In May, 1899,the present house, at 5722 Kimbark avenue,became the home of Alpha Delta Phi at Chi­cago. It is open the year round, Ten menare now living there.JAMES WEBER LINN, '97.The New Comic Opera.Now that the concert is over, the members ofthe three musical clubs will begin in earnest toget ready "The Prodigal Prof," the comic operathey intend to present during the trip South.N one of the men have yet had time to paymuch attention to this important task, and theyhave not even been assigned to parts. Whatwith the necessity of both keeping up theirregular musical club work and, in addition,undertaking these new burdens, they have theprospect of a hard month before them., The men who have been practicing for theballet during the past few weeks are mostlynot regular members of the clubs. They areAverill, Covey, Kennicott, Eicher, Cohen,Barker, Mellinger, Hamilton, Emerick, Me­Henry, Linsley, Adams, Woods, Hair and F.G. Smith. The first six of them took part in"The Academic Alchemist," and so are used toskirts and high-heeled shoes, The ballet is tobe exactly the same as that of last year; thesame costumes, figures and music, and twelveof the sixteen candidates will take part in it.It is also interesting to learn that a studentorchestra is now being organized to accompanythe clubs, which will play all the accompani­ments and incidental music for the operacompany.774ttbe "Ulntverattl' of <tbtcago 'UU1eekI�.EDITORIAL BOARD.GEORGE A.

The old argument that a knowledgeof the arts of fencing and boxing encouragesan undesirable display of pugnacity, is toothin to be seriously considered, and has, infact, been largely superseded. by the exactlyopposite and more rational view. No otherbranch of athletics can so successfully equalizea man's physical powers. Fencing and boxingaccomplish the perfect development of everymuscle, give an erect and graceful carriage, andoffer admirable training in alertness and readywit. Most of the eastern universites, recogniz­ing these advantages, employ trained instructorsSports. who devote their entire time to this one line ofwork. A number of western schools also havefollowed their example. A recent issue of theUniversity of Minnesota Daily announces thata noted fencer and boxer has arrived at theUniversity, and will immediately organizeclasses.In view of all this, many Chicago men havefelt that at their Alma Mater a line of sport isbeing neglected which is really entitled to con­siderable attention and maintain that the Uni­versity authorities should introduce into ourgymnasium curriculum a new- course similar tothose in vogue in the East. Such a desire on:the part of our students shows the right kindof spirit, and is worthy of commendation. Thedifficulty however, is the lack of facilities inthe old gymnasium. The Physical .. CultureDepartment is averse to making any innova­tions until the new building is erected. U n­der the circumstances, we can readily under­stand the situation, though we cannot but re­gret it. Nevertheless we must possess oursouls in patience, looking forward to the time,when in our new quarters all legitimate sports,and among them the offensive-defensive, willreceive their just dues.I t is our belief that there are, among the under­graduate body, many men,Forestry who, in spite of theas a warnings and admonitionsProfession. poured into their ears,during their freshmen year,by division lectures, have not yet a definiteidea as to the direction towards which theirenergies will be directed after they have takentheir degree. To those of this number whoare alert and adventure-loving-who have alittle of the wander spirit left in their blood,we wish to make a suggestion.A profession has been created recently,which is calling for men--a profession fairlylucrative, pleasant, and as honorable as any­viz. forestry.

The disastrous effects upon the adjacentcountry when an extensive piece of woodlandis wantonly stripped, is only one out of manyexamples of the need of scientific forestsuper­vision.The forestry bureau of the Department ofAgriculture which has charge of 50,000,000acres of natural forests is now employing al­most all the experts in this country and isseeking for more. In addition, the Philippi nestwhere there are untold millions of forestand jungle, urgently demand the reclaimingand restraining skill of the foresters.The best road into this profession is throughthe forestry schools of Yale, Cornell and otheruniversities. They offer a two years course, a,the end of which appointment is certain. Theforestry bureau of the Department of Agricul­culture, of which Mr. Gifford Pinchot is thehead, also takes each year a certain number ofcollege graduates as apprentices to learn theprofession. These student assistants are placedin the field during the summer, and the mostcompetent are retained during the winter towork in Washington.Those who doubt the romance of a forester'slife can find that side of it described in Kip­ling's "In the Rukh,' published in "Many In­ventions" or in some editions as the climax ofthe Jungle Book. But even if it is work ardu­ous and devoid of romance, at least it meanslife in the keen air under an open sky, andthat in itself will be sufficient recommendationto many.Michigan has won ten out of thirteen de­bating contests.

I90r.The first step in this legislation was the en­actment of the following regulation: "Un­classified students are subject to all the regularregulations of the University pertaining to un­dergraduate students, including division meet­ings and lectures, chapel assembly and physi­cal culture unless more than one half of theirwork is in the Senior colleges or the Grad­uates chools."It is assured that the regulation will furtherthe University policy of discouraging attend­ance of unclassified students and the urging ofall to classify. Heretofore many who couldmeet classification demands,. have not class­ified because of the special exemptionfor the unclassified. The foes of col­legiate athletic activity have chargedthat this has led young men to come tothe University for some fragmentary studyas unclassified students with the sole purposeof being eligible to play football or baseball,or to take part in some kind of athletic work.A year ago last fall some of the men on thefaculty who held this view agitated the ques­tion and a rule was adopted that no unclassifiedstudent could be eligible for the captaincy ofany athletic team. This caused hard feelingamong those athletes who were unclassified.The second part of the new legislationcovers this point. The-new rule provides thatthe unclassified students, henceforth having thesame requirements as the classified, shall beeligible for public appearance, and thateligibility for membership in any athletic teamor musical or dramatic club implies "eligibilityto any office or honor within the gift Of. 776IJrcijZi:i@st-: :J(fS�)4D?V??§)\*,k;;4r$;0;:li;·)·.S'��Y;:'1S:�(�f··:t:$tJt¢.t�.!¥tj�:{i,#i{\�j!:;�n;[::::9?t:i!tN;lWH:t:*tL�,j·\�{;;::�},frx-!Ithe team or club." In this there is pro'vision for the carrying out of another point ofuniversity policy; namely that when a studentis unclassified so as to do special work in cer­tain lines, no discrimination between him anda regular unlassified student is to be made.Thus it seems that the members of the coun­cil, our deans, have enacted legislation whichwill meet the demands of everyone concernedexcept the athletic enthusiast who thinksthere should be no restrictions whatever..

A. was heldfor the purpose of taking action on the revisedconstitution. Owing to .the desire to introducea General Secretary 'and an Advisory Commit­tee into the working body of the Association,.it was found necessary to make several funda­mental changes, and on last Thursday thisnewly revised constitution was adopted. Inaddition to the customary officers, we havenow made provision for a salaried officer-theGeneral Secretary-whose duty shall b,e to helpand consult with the President concerning theAssociation work, and to hold an advisoryrelation to all committees. The need of anAdvisory Committee, composed of men andwomen of experience, some of of whom shallnot be members of the Association has longbeen felt, and we have now made it possible toappoint such a committee. It is to be hopedthat with the additional aid and support ofsuch a committee, together with the GeneralSecretary, that the efficiency of the Associationmay be increased.The Y. W. C. A. will hold its regular weeklymeeting in Haskell on Friday morning' atro.jo, Topic, "The son of man came to seekarid to save that which was lost." Leader, MissIsabel McKinney.

These records have been made inthe home meet held December 5, towards theclose of the last quarter, in trials on the trackduring the present quarter and in the meetwith the combined Y. M. C. A. team a weekago Saturday. Since the holiday vacationProfessor Stagg has seldom permitted twodays to slip by without giving some men timetrials.The following are the new records for per-formances in the gymnasium:Two laps-W. A. Moloney, 0-34.220 yard dash-s-W. A. Moloney, 0�24 2·5.40 yards hurdles-F. G. Moloney, .05 2-5'I mile run--Eugene Bliss, 4·47 3-':'·Two mile run-R. L. Henry, Jr., 10-49 1.5·Running broad jump--L. A. Hopkins, 21teet, 2 inches.This showing is most gratifying, especiallywhen the early stage of the season is taken in­to consideration. Moreover, not only the menin the foregoing lists have made good records;there are many ot hers who come close to the"gym" records. The majority of these menwho are making good records this fall arethose who showed promise last year and haveimproved as the result of regular work.* * *That Captain W. A. Moloney has made twonew records so early in the year is a signi ficantindication of what he is going to do this year.He has begun training early in the year to get'into better condition than at any time in hisathletic career. Besides setting new marks inthe two lap distance and the 220 "Bill" hastied the record of 0.15 3-5 for one-lap, so thathe holds the track records for all of the run­ning events up to and including the half-milefun.* * * *Some of the best recor d s made this seasonhave been for the two-laps, a distance of 242 2-3yards. In the trials for the Sophomore relayteam the following low marks were made:Ferd M. Horton, 0.34; Wellington, 0·34 1-5·In the relay race against a y. M. C. A. teamFeb, 2, faster time still was made, the recordsof the Chicago men being: W. A. Moloney,0.32; Ferd Horton, 0.33 2-5; Wellington, 0·33-3-5; F. G. Moloney, 0·33 4-5· 777One: "gym" record was broken in the Y. M,O. A meet. Fred Moloney did the 40 yardhurdles in .05 2- 5. He had formerly held therecord .05 4- 5, Manning also having .nade thesame time.I n mile run time trials Professor Stagg hascaught a great many good records by the dis­ance men. Two men, Bliss, '04 and Ferd Hor­ton, '03 have gone under the ol d record of4-48 2- 5 made by B. B. Smith, two years ago.The story of Bliss' reduction in time is told in- the following record of his trials: Dec. 15,4.56 1-5; Jan. 18,4-52; Jan. 31,4-47 3-5. Hortonhas run the mile only once, on Feb. 7, and hewent in 4-47 4- 5, a remarkable perform­ance when it is considered that Horton hadnever run a mile before. "Pat" Henry andGrabo have been making good mile recordsand improving regularly until on Feb. 8, Grabomade the distance in 4.5 I 4- 5 and Henry in4.53 4-5. Kelly has done a mile in 5.05.When Henry ran the two-mile in 10-49 hepractically established a new varsity record.The event had been run once before andWright who is ineligible and was then, ran in11:141-5,* *Some good quarter mile marks have beenmade. Ferd Horton made 0.56 1-5. Onlytwo Ohicago men have ever gone under .56on the "gym" track--Moloney who holds therecord at 0.53 4 5, and Fair who did 0·55 3-5·The other day Wellington ran a quarter in0.56 2 5. Horton and Lord have both runhalves in 2.07 4-5, the track record being2.06 1-5 held by Moloney.*In field events only one new record hasbeen made. A. R. Hopkins made 21 feet 2inches In the broad jump. The former recordfor a jump in the "gym" being 20 feet 2 inches.Pettit held the former record at this figurethough he jumped farther at Notre Dame. Inthe high jump, Ferris, '04 made 5 feet 7 1-8at the meet with the Y. M. O. A. This wasgood for third only, but was within an inch ofthe floor record. The best record in the polevault so tar this winter - is ten feet, Kennedy'04 having cleared the bar at that height.A "Parvum Operurn.'"It seems to me mother told me not tostudy on the car this morning. Let me see­'Don't get your feet wet. Don't forget to mailthis letter, or pay the gas bill, or buy thoseshoe strings and tie your muffler tight, and'­well anyway I may as well rest my eyes andacquire some general culture at the sametime. Here goes for a little research into thephychology of shoes" The young gentle­man in the corner shut his book and appliedhimself to the whimsical occupation of study­ing the varied assortment of foot-gear whichadorned the passengers opposite to him. Hewas about eighteen years old. . He had a pileof books on one side, and on the other, a tinlunch box on which some large letters an­nounced to the public at large, that the ownerwas Carl Werner. He was not by any meansa hero of romance; his hair was of no particu­lar color; he had freckles; and his spectacleswere not becoming. But he had a seriousfirmness about his mouth and chin, and ahumerous twinkle in his eyes which was at-, tractive. If, now, he had known that severalwomen on the car had viewed his tall, vigor­ous form and his frank, serious, healthy face,with approval he would have been disgusted.Having exhausted all the interest to be de­rived from all the shoes in sight, he was deepin speculation as to the character, history andprofession of an attenuated little man in a wellworn Prince Albert, a white tie and patentleather pumps. Oarl had a propensity for thisoccupation, but his rides to and from the Uni­versity were the only times in his busy younglife when he could ind ulge in such frivolities.A certain store in the suburbs with the inscrip­tion, ·'C. Werner, Fine Groceries and Meats,"occupied the energies of C. Werner-Jr., in hisafternoons. In the evening he toiled at hisbooks with an unflagging spirit that had al­ready won him a Greek scholarship and a prizein history.In spite of these achievements, Carl prob­ably represented less. actual accomplishmentthan anyone else in that car full of active,struggling humanity. To the well fed gentle­man next to him, who, resplendent in lightgray trousers and a silk hat, was absorbing thestock exchange reports of the morning paper,Carl was as an acorn to an oak tree. He was, I 778a passive receptacle for the world's forces, asyet. He was now only a bundle of hopes andaspirations, of vague potentialities. But inthat chaos there was slowly developing a pur­pose that would some day send him toweringup into the world to battle with the elements.That purpose was as yet unconscious. He didnot know that ever since he had sat on thecounter and lisped wonderful romances to thegrocery cat or had filled the soap advertise­ments, which he could not read, with thrillingand fantastic meanings, his genius was slowlyripening. But this story is not concerned withhis genius; that is well known. The worldknows by heart the works which his self-for­getting devotion and his marvelous intuitionafterwards produced, but the little victory theywon for him that November morning has beenhitherto unknown.Carl had mentally supplied his unconsciousfellow passengers with appropriate historiesand was just casting about for a new subjectwhen a young lady with a music roll gotaboard. She was about twenty-four, and be­sides this attraction for a youth of eighteen,she had the most marvelous, unfathomable,brown eyes he had ever seen and a transparencyof complexion that seemed to let her verysoul shine through. Carl was fascinated. Ifshe had been a few years older he certainlywould have fallen in love with her. After hehad stared at her for a length of time danger­ously near the limits prescribed by good breed­ing, he fixed his eyes on the most conspicuousobject in sight which happened to be a copious­ly illustrated newspaper that the man next tohim was reading. Oarl stared mechanicallyfor some time at a handsome and bejewelledlady on the first page. Then he became inter-ested suddenly. He read the head lines:Disappearance of a Beautiful andTalented He-iress.Viola Marston Leaves aLuxurious Home.Believed to be Deranged.$500 RewardFor the Disclosure of her.Whereabouts.He looked again at the girl with the musicroll. Her hair was drawn back lightly, herhat came down low over her forehead, and her• high collar was turned up concealing the out­lines of her face. "After all" thought Carl, "it'sonly the eyes. But were there ever two pairof eyes like those?" $500! He was lost indreams of summers spent luxuriously in studyinstead of that tiresome grocery. It would bemuch more than enough to pay the rest ofhis tuition. His father could buy a new de­livery wagon. His mother could have-butthe girl was getting off the car. Carl sprangup after her. She walked slowly as if she wastired. Carl sauntered along whistling andlooking into the shop windows that his pursuitmight not be noticeable. To seem the moreunconcerned he picked up an envelope lyingon the walk. It was unaddressed and un­sealed, and he proceeded to open it carelessly."Aunt Marston :-( he read) I am not apolo­gizing for my actions. I am trying to show youthe folly of yours. I endured your selfishness,your worldliness, your vulgar match making.I despised that life of worthlessness and devo­tion to pleasure that I lived with you, but Iendured it; you were my father's sister. Butwhen you wished me and would have forcedme to be a witness in a law suit which was toadd to your wealth at the expense of a poorman, it was too much. You know that thereal will was destroyed when Uncle John'shouse burned down. You know that the decis­ion of all the judges in the world could not makethis the lawful will. I am glad that; for thefirst time in my life I can be of some use. Youcannot win the case without me and it will beuseless for you to hunt for me. I shall not re­pent of my choice. I am happy in my workand my freedom.VIOLA MARSTON,"Carl looked up. She had evidently discov­ered her loss and was coming back, lookinganxiously on the ground. He dropped theletter on the walk so that she might have noapprehension of discovery and hailed the nextcar. Sometimes during the next summer ashe who was destined to be the greatest ofAmerican novelists was tying up packages ofcoffee and tea or weighing out sugar, he foundboth strength to endure, and inspiration in thethought of her sacrifice. He never thought ofhis own.RUTH TERRY. 779New Rules for Unclassified Students.Beginning with October 1St., 1900, unclassi­fied students will be subject to many of theUniversity regulations governing other under­graduates.
