I STUBBS. Joseph Edward Stubbs was born at Ashland, Ohio, March 19, 1850. The progressiveness and activity which charac- terizes his later life characterized also his boyhood, and at the age of eighteen he graduated from Ashland High School. His excellence as a scholar won for him the position of teacher in the A Grammar grade of the school, which position he held during the year 1868-1869, when he gave it up to enter College. In September, 1869, he entered as Freshman, in the Classical course, of the Ohio Wesleyan University, Delaware, Ohio. He had charge of the Delaware High School during the spring term of 1871, and during his Junior year in College he taught classes in Algebra and Elementary Physics. In June, 187 3, he graduated from Ohio Wesleyan University with the degree of B. A. That the Faculty recognized his ability and held him in honor is shown by the fact that he was elected in 1872, one year before his graduation, to fill the position of tutor of Latin and Greek in the College Department of the University-a posi- tion opened by reason of the election of Professor Hoyt to the editorship of the Western Christian Advocate. His health failing him, he resigned his place and went to California, where he spent a year, enjoying the much needed rest. In July, 1873, Dr. Stubbs married Miss Ella Sprengle, a graduate of the Ohio Wesleyan Female College. For three years after his return from California he was editor of the Ashland Times, giving this up to accept the superintendency of the Ashland School, which position he occupied from I88O to 1886. In 1886 he accepted the position of President of Baldwin University. He retained this place until 1894 when he was elected President of the Nevada State University whichoflice he is now holding. From July, 1891, to August, 1892, Dr. Stubbs spent in travel in Europe and in studying in the University of Berlin. For the year 1893 he was President of the Ohio College Association. Dr. Stubbs put forth unceasing effort to enlarge and build up Baldwin University, and what he did for it is well known. A new campus was purchased and two beautiful College buildings were erected on it, the endowment fund was increased and other things done which render his stay here memorable. 20
