'l'ru~ ()ollege 7i'anscripl of lho Ohio Wesleyan niversity in ils la t i 110 re­ports the grievances of the stlldent ot tbat school at onsiderable Il'ngth. Ono of the rules of the college b that "no tuuont shnll attond any theatl'icnl , ope­

Of this num­ber tho Soniol' class furni h d twell'e· Whnt aclion will bel tnkell to I'indicate th authority of th Faculty regulations i n mere mattcr of onjectur. They al 0 make out a strong elise against one of their profossors who annually greets his classes with the tat IIlcnt that not ono out of ten graduates of the institu­tion is fit to graduate, which is equil'a­lent to 8!\ying that the O. W. U. is not what it should be. and to an admission on the part of Iillid profcssor that he dcb!l8ed him elf very timo he igned Ilia name to a diploma. 'rh 7rml.cri,Jt h!l8 taken goou gronnd. A ,diploma should be Illor than a certificate of at­tendallc. Further it is all injustice to stud nts to give them a diploma and nt tho sante tim refuso to r commend them. A diploma serv 8 as a lell I' of introduction to the pnblic and its value is measured by the reputnlion of the Institution by which it is given and it

is certainly in very poor ta te {or a professor of Faculty, after having igned uch diploma, to say that the

bearcr is uuworthy of their reccommen­dation.

'l'nAT there is a growing need of a wider di semillntion of sound political and social ideal! among the masses of our voting population, is apparent to all observers. Instruction in those qnestions dil'ectly involved in the exer­cise of the dnties of citizenship, is con­firmed to a very limited number, while it cannot be denied that a large class of voters form no proper conception of their grave responsibilities. The bal­lot in the hands of the ignorant for­eigner exercises as much weight in determining lluestions of govermental policy, as tbat of the learned expositor or tho lall'. '1'0 nvoid corruption in high places the source of POWtll' must lJe kept pur..,. A 11y }lmctical movement to further th adl'Rllcement of political iden..~ among the peop!e, and to lJring nbolIt a clearer understanding of politi­cal qUl'stions hould bo heralded as a mnch ncededreforlll.

Undor Ihe head, "A Significant Edu­('!ltional Moremen '," The Uni1:1'1'8i1y trl'ats of the "AJtlel'ican Insti tute of CiviL'S," an as ociMion incorporated un­uel'the lllws 01' Massachusett , aud dt}­signed for the purposo of disseminating rigut political ideas among the people and especilllly for the better preparation of th young for the privileges and responsibilitie of citizens. The field of activity is design d to include the whole· cOLIntry.

The plan aims to reach the "i8ing generation through the educationnl machinery, and the ~eneral pnblic through the prCBS lind lccture platform.

"In thll departlllent of Hchoal instruc­til 'll, efforts will be made to ecure the CO-O}leration of tat nnd local school officers, or other public officials, nnd of the publlc at large in teaching in all common nnd Jdgh schools, especially those piliu from the public treasury, the cs ential r laUonsllnd obligations of ~overnmellt and gOI'emed."

,i/l'he department of college and .pro­fcs ional school instruction will seek to seCuro "c Operation of trustees and heads of such institutioDij in efforts to promote in all our colleg '8 and profes­sional ~chool8 that atl nlion to matters r lating to republican government and citiz Il hip which hnll more full qualify the Ilrntluatcs of the institutions for tlle discbarge of thoir duties as memb rs of the body politic, by making tbem the source of a wise and 1 atriotic influence, wIlile fitting them for the inteJli~eJlt discharge of the dlttles of any publio tation that mny dovolvo upon them."

In this ileld of labor tho coOperation of all friends of educl\tion is desired.

The Ilesociation will aim to promoto usefnl knowl dgo amon~ the general

public by securing the special coopera­lion of editors and ])llblishers in the publication of suitable Iiterntur~ under its auspices. Lyceums reading, circles. and other kindred local organizatioDl where possible, will also be used as a means to accompli~h the same end.

The advocacy of extreme views wil be avoided but :ho "most essential fact. relating' to questions of vital public con­cern will be carefully presented. The system of organization is some whai elaborate and complelC.

"That any disinterested effort to the enJ of encouraging American voters t. express independent judgments upoa political questions will meet with the determined opposition of all the politi­cal bosses, everyone who has had anJ expcricnce in politics knows only toe well to be true; that the "American In­stitute of Civics" has been entirely wise in its plan for accompli hing the desired result in the face of such oppositioa. very few of the members tbemselves. we apprehend , would be rasb enough bt maintain . It is to be presumed, hoW'­e\"(>I', thlll Ihe gentlemen who have id l:' lItifi l'll thl'mselvc. with this move­ment. IInHoI1!! them many educlttors and public llIen of hi/!It reputation, have duly \Veil-dIed ttJe steps they have taken; that lh('y hal'O considered the difUcnlty IH'ces~(1 rily lIlvohed in tho successful illall!;ul'I\tion of a scheme contemplating

11th wide and various ncti vities as those }JI'OpO d for the "American Institute of

Ivic i" and that they will be fnlly pre-­pared to makQ such 1D0dificalious i. their plans of time and experience may prove to be ncco ary to the full succeu of the cnterprise."

TIlE friends of the Literary Societiea could but lJe pleasou with thc words ofe/}o couragement offered by tho Presirlent i. his .Monday morning lecture. The S0-ciety halls offer better facilitics fOI' devel­opment ill certain linea thlln call be found in the class room however well ordered. But as in the class room, the basis of succeRS is careful preparation.. Accuracy of statement is an end as desir­nble as flnency of speech, and this can be attained only by careful, constant study_

College rushes seem almost epidllmic this fall. At I1nrvnrd occnred the first one in several years; At Williams, &

cane rush resulted in the expulsion or sevon SobOmOrC8j at Wesleyan Univel'­sity eight Illon, also 80phs., were 80ver­ely disciplined for the same offense; aL Princton, four of the class of '8 , el:­})el1ed for bnziug, and even nt DePauw, tho Fresh'len and Juniors had a pitcn mio battle In tho college halls.-.h~);.

why the opportunity now presented should be embra.ced by many more stu· dents. Singin~ is not as difficult an ac complishment as many suppose it to be. The time devoted to a single terms work in one study in the University course "ould enable ninc ont of every ten to read music with compara.tive ease, and do much toward improving their voices, and would yield three fold a much actual benefit and real enjoyment in af· ter life than the same amount of work put upon any study iu tr.e whole Uoi· ,'ersity course.

THE VlDETTE-REPO}{TER.

SOME CONTRIBUTOK~.

Oor readers all know that W8 have been very earnestly desirous of outside cootrlbuUODl! W this department o( the paper. During the paat QOelOUr most IItInguine expectations hue been more tban reali.ed. We had, at lin unpree. dented expenee and outlay to the man-

ment, advertised in several metro­politan newepapers, that thi' pape' WI.'I

a moet excellent and desirable periodical for budding genius to addreee and in whici to~eeea1 it.s first feeble lIerial gyra­tions promising In payment IIbundance of fame and a copy of the paper, end of­tering, 13 a premium to tho best com­peting production preeented before a certain day, designatoo, a larg. aroup photoaraph of the Univenity Faculty (price SI.00) lIurrounded by a valuable and handaome gilt frame (price '1.50), hun ... lth a red cord (price lOcte.), and agreeillg to label it in fancy blue letten, at option of euccessCUI competiwr, either "Scene from Dantes Inferno" or "Officers and Members otChicago B8!O-ball Nine of '85," (price of lettering 5Octa). On the day named, we eat in our sancmm, ready to receive any contributions that millht preaen' themselvee, afte, tbe manner of a building committee sitting down to open sealed bid .. We had wondored why, with the liberal induce· ments quoted above, there had been no response as yet and 11'0 were tipped back in our chair, bumming, a la "Policem.n's Chorus," "An ediwrs' lot is not a happy one, bappy one," when we heard a feeble knock at the door. We assumed a verti­cal position, adjusted our necktie ana &ltertd, "Co-come in," trembling at th e thought of confronting G:enius. The door optned, and a little bAld·beaded man, wearing a smirking, though fright­ened 3Dd apoloai:.illll: expreatio., and a very ill fitting suit of clothes, lip-toed ClUItioaaly in. "A-,,,., i-u, thi. tbe edi­tor," he murmued in a surprised tone. We were frightened at our novel posi­tion, and faintly pJac::latod, "I-It are." Wo wert') both scared, but at tbis he seemed to pick up courage, and witb mort .milk snd lell!! lriabt, 'lild much more apolgy in his expression, he bowed and .id, "1·1 rnd YOUl advertitement in the papers. I como from Chicaao, and would be,'} to present a littl. potm which I dashed off in an idle moment and which I desire to present (or YOUl mOlt valuable prize," and he drew a brown paper package out of his pocket. I offered him a chair and told him w rm hie poem W me. He Wok thachaiT, .t down, placed hie hat on tbe floor be­side it, and began w read with an une­tuoue and beg-your-pal'don inflection.

I fell back with a loud cry. The little man, who had been elaborately aud in tently interpreting his mllnu8llript, sprang half out of his chair, a look of

extreme3t terror on his face, gasped, Pled 'liUely around, mado a terrified grab tor his hat and slid silently out, witbout looking back. I had not yet tully recovered, when the knob again turned and I Ball' an object enter which inspired m. with three-fold terror. It wu a man of about thirty years. His featuroo were large, peaked, and aquiline, bi! bair flowed OTer hi3 shoulders his 10Dg mustache drooped on either side bi~ chin, he wore the broadeet kind of a Byron collar, his long black necktie floated wildly in tba breeze, he \Voro a fad04 alpaca coat, 17hose caudal append­adge reached only to the line of bis oos­pendGr buttons, his pantaloons flapped frantically about bis slender limbs. He strode fomard with his neck tbrust out, his shoulders dawn up, and his body and leas forming an S in shape, sr.arcely lifting his feet from tbe floor, bnt slink­ing aloDi lite a cat. He stopped in front of me, ran his hand wildly through his hair, made a horizontal iesture with his arm to it:J full extant, and pointed his bony finger toward one corner of tbe room. I looked helplessly in that di­rection and then at him, but saw tbat he meant nothini but was simply pro­paring to speal. "What, ho, Antonio, lnOl\'est tbou my word, I come from fair St. Louis' bf'auteous site, to plunge me fortunes in the fiery lilt of intellectual tourneys sanguine field, I havo my weapon here concealed. Woulds't hear it." "G-go on," I managed to gulp out.

He took a long roll of manuscript out of his breast pocket, held it at arm's length before him, threw out his other hand sidl!wise struck an attitudo and began,

"The ~Ioodr moon W88 riling in the Ult, When o'er tbe murk)' battle field alllorO, Th •• pirit. 01 the .Wo. to ft!ldenoo:u, Came pallid taoed, with saping wonnds, All"-

I had been gaining courage. "Hold on," I interrupted, "I never could print that in my paper, it would scaro the Freshiee W death ." He stopped dumb­founded, not 8eeming to comprehend at first. But when he did, with a passion­ate gelture forward he shouted, "What eay'et, 'twould fright the verdant Fresh­man, air; why 8ir't"ould atir his poeL BOul eo deeJr-," "No, it wouldn't," I in­terrupted, "a Freshman hasn't any BOul but a large leather one and your 'mUrky battle' field murty·1I him outr-" I was frQaen with terror. He had collapsed, shut up like a jaok-knife, !tis chin strik­ing his limp knees, and he lay uncon· cious upon the floor. Whilo I was en· deavoring ~o restoro him to his senses, I heard a pecnliar, gnrglini laugh close w my ear, and riaing hastely from the prostrate form and lookin~ up with some surpriee, I saw before me a smooth faced, flesby, barrel-sbaped individual who was contemplating me witb an unbound· edly complacent 8mile and was flourish· ing in his hand a roll of paper tied with a yellow ribbon. Be repeated his pecu­liar laugh, wbich seemed to be entirely a surface affllir and insincere, 80me 8uch hasty and matter of poli ten ellS Illugh III!

With a graceful wave of the hand showing bis unannoyed acquies­cence, ho unrolled his ms. and began, "Huh-uh-uh" (ho seemed to think me very humorous) "I havo here a produlJ. tion entitled, 'Tho New Philosophy' to-wit: Rrom ont tbe world's protnberential eeqU6DCIII,

AMONG OUR EXCHANGES.

Vo]umne I, No.1 of the College World made its appearance this week. It is a neat and interesting semi·monthly published at Adrian, Michigan.

The present Freshman class numbers more than one hundred memuers, and contains several members of promise. When they become senior ,nearly eyery one of tbe class expects to carry off the

.lnterstate.-DePauw Monthly. All student<! in Russian Universities

are now compelled to wear, on cermoni­ous occasions, a uniform consisting of a blue cap, gray coat and green trousers, all plentifully embellished with gold lace. The suit will be so costly that poor boys can hardly afford to buy it, and the belief is that the requirement is intended to hinder the impoverilhed masses in educating their aone.-North­ll't8Iern.

The note·book is a beneficial compan­ion if 'properly used. When you are reading, if you come across anything you like jot it down. You will get a store tbat will surprise you. Keep it al­ways with y lll. If you think a though t that strikes you jot it down, you will find use for it when J OU come 10 write a piece. Then you will not need 10 .611 " certain space, but will write becaule you bave something to say. And this il 'be only reason why one should writ~.­MonlllOlJth Collegian.
