ARRANGED in ORDER of SENIORITY The PRESIDENT. PROFESSORS and ASSISTANT PROFESSORS constitute the Faculty 7 Gen. Alexander Stewart Webb, LL.D., President T is not often that Nature so blends the soldier, literatus, and academician as she has done in the person of President Webb, to the formation of a gifted and many-sided man. General Webb comes of an old New York family; he is a son of General James Watson Webb, and was born in this city in 1835. He completed his private school education at West Point, where he was graduated in 1855. For the next two years lie saw active military service in the Florida campaign and on the Minnesota frontier. In 1857 he became Assistant Professor of Mathematics at the Military Academy, a position which he held until the outbreak of the Civil War. General Webb’s career in the War of the Rebellion was a brilliant and enviable one, but we have space to mention only a few of the principal engagements in which he distinguished him- self. In the summer of ’62 he served in the Army of the Potomac, and was made Brigadier- General in July, 1863. At Gettysburg his brigade (the Second, Second Division, Second Corps) was conspicuous in the repulse of Pickett’s charge, and General Webb, though wounded, bore himself in such an admirable and daring manner that General Meade bestowed on him a medal for distinguished personal gallantry,” and stated, in his letter accompanying it, that his conduct was not surpassed by that of any general on the field.” For his behavior at Gettysburg, he was brevetted Major in the Regular Army. It is by his part in this battle that General Webb is most widely remembered, but in the Rapidan campaign (notably at Bristow Station), the battles of the Wilderness, and at Spottsyl- vania Court House his work was equally as brilliant. In the last conflict he was severely wounded, and, for his meritorious bearing was brevetted Colonel (U. S. Army). In the engage- ments before Petersburg, General Webb was Chief-of-StafT of the Army of the Potomac, and was in turn brevetted Brigadier and Major-General. Since the war he has published several monograms on different campaigns, chief of which is an account of McClellan's operations on the Peninsular. His works are all characterized by their just and able criticism and each is authoritative on its respective topic. In 1869 the Presidency of the College of the City of New York was offered to General Webb. During the time of his administration, he has labored earnestly and conscientiously in the interests of our Alma Mater, and, if any one man may be said to have raised the standard of scholarship of our institution to the high position which it now holds, it is he to whom the honor is due. Long and faithfully has General Webb served our Alma Mater, and his name is dear to every one of her sons. Long may he still be permitted to serve her. 8 CEN.

There is so much that must be left unwritten, and space for only the principal achievements to be mentioned. The selection of these is a difficult one to make. I call in the aid of my pipe—that “potent conjurer,” and, as I watch “the smoke wreaths curl,” I seem to see in them the drama of our college life acted anew in all its phases. It is a great temptation to lose myself in idle reverie on the goodly friendships we have formed, but the historian must present facts rather than musings. First, we were verdant Freshmen. In this year, though our “ annals were brief,” we were not too happy. The life was strange and new, with little pleasure and much work; still, we made the influence of the class felt by winning both “rushes” with the Sophs, and by get- ting some of our men on the different athletic teams. We enjoyed a memorable year as jolly Sophs. Our class pipes were the envy of the “ Fresh,” and our dinner will stand out in the social annals of the College as a merry and enthu- siastic gathering and one which firmly cemented the class ties. In athletics, too, we were con- spicuous. Our lacrosse team won the inter-class tournament (a feat which no other Sophomore class has accomplished)—and that with a clear record—and our track and baseball teams were surpassed only by their opponents. Next year, some of the fellows, just to live up to the established Junior traditions, went in heavy for the girls, tho’ many of us were more bashful. In this year, too, we showed what orators and debaters we have in our midst, speakers before whose persuasive eloquence and con- vincing arguments many a strong belief and high sounding theory has been destroyed. As early as the Junior year we were represented at the public debate by one of our number, who easily triumphed over his Senior antagonists. Now, as “grave and reverend” Seniors, we have further evinced the class initiative by being the first to adopt cap and gown “to be worn at all lectures and recitations.” We have also set on foot two new college publications, and have put out the first football team since ’96, though the less said of its performances the better. Our theatre party was well attended, and more than one youth was certain he had “killed” some fair disciple of Thalia. Now that “ Reviews ” are over (chronologically, at least), there remain only a few minor matters for 1900 to attend to such as scoring the most points at the Spring games in May, but this is a simple matter. College life has developed the “ naughty naughts ” along different lines. Some of us have shown ourselves embryo politicians ; some have delighted most in our social functions ; we boast more than one Heracles and Hermes; some have proved stout trenchermen at our banquets ; others have developed their lungs on our different rostra, and still others (though not very many) chiefly delight “ to suck the sweets of sweet philosophy.” My pipe is nearly out; the fragrant haze from the mellow Virginia will soon lift, and the dreamy cloud pictures will fade forever. Yet will I often recreate them, and thus keep fresh my memory of this, the happiest period of our lives. Herman Abromowitz, z bt. Clionia; Prize Speaker (3).

However, there were no “Microcosms” in the time of Pliny. In its extreme youth our class was precocious. Did we not astound the whole College, when, in our “prep” year, as infant “subs,” we held a dinner where (tho the Freshmen so courted the person of our toastmaster that he could not deny them) we had our first good time and were imbued with the idea of class ? In its maturer years 'oi has been notable in many ways. It is in athletics, however, that the class has achieved the most of its laurels : our “rushes” were simply irresistible and while our team had the misfortune to play “left end” in the lacrosse tournament, we overshadowed everything by holding the supremacy on the track for the past two years. Our class, as everybody knows, is full' of men who are wonders in some way or another, and we look forward to their achievements in after life with complacency, knowing full well that they will nobly acquit themselves. Who of us is not sure that Hess will not some day be President, or at least Alderman ? We are confident that our only “ Larry ” will surpass even “ Samson ” in the wonder of his big feats; that Lee will be Governor-General of Cuba, or else its Presi- dent; there are, too, our sweet musicians who will probably be famous (unless they bury their talents on some of the Coney Island steamboats), men like Crawford and Poons; Keene can become a second “ Duke” Farrell as soon as he will sign a contract with the aS National Uague-but we cannot mention all our notables, it would exhaust our space. And yet how many giants have we lost: all round good fellows like Burnett and Davies-or any number of others. Some have already entered the stern business of life and others becoming weary of work, have taken up courses of study (?) farther up town. Now to dwell for a moment on the influences for the good that we have wrought on the other classes and our beloved Faculty. As some one has justly said (and it was no one named Steele ), “to know the Class of ’oi is a liberal education.” The poor “Profs.” were rather disheartened after their first year’s experience with “naughty naught,” and they turned tons with hope which was not misplaced. Yet, strange to say, we do not think the Faculty entirely appreciates us. It does not at least understand our desire (which, it has been basely insinuated, is a mania) to hold meetings, and on one occasion compelled us to hold forth “in convention assembled” on Third Avenue, to the immense joy and edification of numerous “itinerant merchants. ” Shall we ever forget that! Well, everything must end, and even this account of the Junior Class. Since thus far it has proved itself so remarkable, what (we say it modestly1) will we not do when we are Seniors, in that last year, so long looked forward to, and now so near. May 1901 be ever “ sans peur, el sans reproelie.’ •This word applies to some only. Of nothing worse than chicken stealing we hope.

May she live long and flourish exceedingly, and may she ever have sons who will maintain her prestige in as worthy a manner as '02 has always done !” As to the history of our first year of unsophistication little need be said, except that we were the first Freshman class to organize a football team. We entered the Sophomore year with banners flying, only a few of our original band having been left on the field of battle as victims of the guile of the Faculty. At the first taste of our studies in the new year we sank deeply into the “ Slough ot Despond,” but we quickly picked up courage and struck out bravely for the “ Delectable Mountains.” Only once did we falter when, in the region of stinks (Chein. Lab.), we floundered in dark, disagreeable smelling streams, from which we must evolve “ tin ” and other precious metals. However, our halt was of short duration, and our way, on the whole, was a way of triumph. We intend to continue as we have commenced, acquiring great store of knowledge, and, incidentally, we hope many prizes. While we look back over the past we strongly doubt if any class has left such a clean record1 behind it and received as much praise from the “ Profs.” Then we look forward with a tranquil spirit to the coming two years in the dear Old Coll, (since we have given up hopes of ever being denizens of the new one), and our stone-paved campus, where we take excursions on O. B. P.’s to furtively munch a pie (whose sp.g.-?), or—as we learned when Fresh—to smoke a soothing pipe (with a watchful eye for Professor Bonnfc), and from whence we wend our way back to write, with a clear conscience, in the “Hotel Register,” absolute necessity. ’ ’ 32 But I have neglected all mention of our Soph Banquet. That notable event took place at the Hotel Marlborough, and was such a success that “ there was gnashing of teeth ” among the beuighted ones who did not attend. It is true that we had no Fresh to amuse us with their childlike wit and naive simplicity, but our “ own best company ” was so delightful that we did not depart ’till the “ wee sma’hours.” Perhaps they were not so very sma’, but I don’t remember that part of the programme perfectly. Our football team is very Phoenix-like, indeed. Though often defeated, it has always sprung up bright and fresh to try its strength again. The lacrosse team, the tennis association, the athletic association, the dramatic society and like organizations seem (to us at least) to be mostly composed of ’02 men. The purely class societies, whose meetings are always well attended; the ’02 Glee Club (now under process of instruction1), and the way we are preparing for the spring games are other proofs of the class spirit and “go.” Vale ! 1 We have been unable to decide whether such a record is due to the excellence of its deeds or to the brevity of its annals. •Other MSS. give “construction ” and “destruction.” We have adopted the one in the text as seeming the most necessary, though the latter given above might be more desirable.—Ed. 33 Class of Nineteen Hundred and Three Colors, Maroon and White. a YELL: Hullabaloo, ker rack, per jack.

But though our annals are a M brief, they are glorious, and even to the casual observer must seem fraught with the promise of a glorious future career in these ‘‘classic halls ” of ours. The night of the debate was the first chance we had to show our mettle, and if the Sophs” are wise, they will not seek a second example. Yet we must give '02 a slight meed of praise, for though her opposition was futile, yet it was determined. How can we blame the Sophs for coveting our banner when it is the cynosure of every class in college? But their defeat was punishment enough, and we shall not seek to rub it in ” here. We count many mighty men among our number. Glance at the 'Varsity Football line up : ’03 has a larger percentage of representatives than any other class. In the Spring games, too, we won two firsts ” through the triumphs of Sweezy and Haley. Yet the event longest to be remembered is our dinner. A class may be very fairly judged by the enthusiasm and spirit ol its banquets, and taking this as a criterion, '03 is certainly O. K. We found out then what a number of our men are embryo Choates or Depews as far as talking over the walnuts and the wine ” goes—but this theme would last forever. As the doctor poet has said • Good was the dinner, better was the talk ; Some whispered, devious was the homeward walk ; The story came from some reporting spy— They lie, those fellows—oh, how they do lie ! Not ours, those foot tracks in the new fallen snow— Poets aud sages never zigzagged so? 36 Summary of Faculty and Students a FACULTY President and Professors, Assistant Professors, . • Instructors, .

Its aim, as set forth in the constitution then adopted, and since continued, was “ to improve its members in the arts of debating oratory and composition, and for the promotion of friendly intercourse among them.” To further these aims, the constitution provides for weekly meetings to be held throughout the collegiate year. The Literary Exercises consist of criticisms, declamations, essays, readings, debates, and the reading of the Clionian Magazine —a periodical supported by original contributions (usually in a light vein) from the members. In 1852 was founded one of the most attractive features, as well as most useful adjuncts, of the Clionian Society—the Library. This contains about four thousand carefully selected vol- umes, some of them very rare, as well as the documents and annals of the Society. The Library forms by far the greatest factor in the promotion of friendly intercourse among the members, as it is there they flock at the end of each day (and at the beginning too, but for other reasons) to find rest and relief from their weary tasks. Recently, too, the Library has unconsciously become a strong factor in our aesthetic development. So much so that it bids fair to rival the intellectual influence it has for a long time exerted over us. The influence is due chiefly to the changed decorations on the walls. For the ornamentations, which time and our predecessors had left on them, became distasteful to our enterprising Librariaux, and, instead of the hieroglyphics and youthful attempts at art which formerly greeted the eye, a perfect picture gallery may now be seen. In 1870 were established the joint debates between the Clionian and Phrenocosmian Societies. So successful have these been in the past years, as well as in more recent times, that they have become one of the most popular features in the College. Of the fifty-eight debates that have been held since 1870, each society has won an equal number, and, as a result of this, the next one promises to be one of the most stubbornly contested we have yet witnessed. 41 It is with pride that we look back upon the progress made during the last two years. In addition to our increased membership and the flourishing condition of our finances, changes have been affected which promise to be of greater consequence to our future welfare than even a larger roll of membership or a fuller treasury could hope to accomplish. We refer, first, to the change in the mode of selecting our joint debaters. Hitherto these have been elected by the members of the Society, but in February, 1899, the first “ Trial Debate ” was instituted, opening a fair field to every capable debater in the Society, and thus assured a much better showing at Chickering Hall. We are pleased to hear that Phrenocostnia has since followed our lead. The next step in which Clionia also took the initiative promises, when it shall have been carried to a successful completion, to be of even greater moment, not only to the two Socitics, but also to the College at large. Shortly after the first joint debate of the year, a committee was appointed to confer with a like committee from Phrenocosmia as to the advisability of establish- ing Inter-Collegiate Debates. It is to be regretted that the stress of work incident to the Review Examinations, and especially the approach of the second Inter-Society Debate of the year, hin- dered the committee in its work. But we feel sure that the project will not be dropped, from which so much honor and glory might accrue to our college, especially since we will have a Post- Graduate Course next fall. 4 Clionian Society OFFICERS FOR THE YEAR 146th Ttrm 147th Term President, Joseph Hirschman, ’co, Vice-President, Jerome C.

PHRENOCOSMIAN LITERARY SOCIETY FOUNDED 1852 at the College of the City of New York 45 History of the Phrenocosmian Literary Society HE Phrenocosmian Literary Society was founded in 1852, its purpose being according to the preamble of the constitution, “the cultivation of our argumentative and aesthetical powers, and the promotion of social intercourse and genuine friendship.” All of these aims the society has realized to their fullest extent; for not only does a member of several years standing possess remarkable debating ability, as is evinced in our Joint Debates, and his critical faculties become severely tested by the literary work imposed upon him, but he comes to know his fellow student better, he has the opportunity to form friendships both lasting and genuine, an opportunity which, owing to the peculiar circumstances of our college life, is not often presented to him elsewhere. Practice in debate is one of the special advantages which every member must positively receive. Through such practice he learns to think clearly and rapidly, his analytical faculties receive an excellent training, and his elocutive powers are materially benefitted. The results of our system are manifested at the semi-annual Joint Debates with our sister society, Clionia. These debates were formerly held in the College Chapel, but when that antique structure proved too small for the audiences we attracted, Chickering Hall was used. The many eminent men who have acted as judges at these contests have been unsparing in their praise. In fact the Hon. Edward M. Shepard was so favorably impressed by them, that in 1886 he donated the sum of $500 to be distributed in prizes of $50 for the purpose of encouraging debate. Many men who now hold high places in the commercial and professional world have represented Phreno at these debates, among whom we mention only one, John Bach MacMaster, ’72, Professor of History in the University of Pennsylvania, who holds the remarkable record of having won three Joint Debates. Each of the societies now has twenty-nine victories to its credit, and the coming struggle in May will therefore prove even more spirited than usual. In provinces more purely literary our success has not been less remarkable. In the com- petition for the Kelly prize which is awarded to that member of either society who writes the best critique on some work of English literature, members of Phreno have won five out of the last six. The senior members of our society each year offer a prize of books for similar work. 46 Aside from these literary and social advantages, a member gains an extensive knowledge of the principles of Parliamentary Law. The discussions regarding the conduct of the affairs of the society afford occasions for extemporaneous speaking and debate which necessarily impart to the members force, clearness and fluency of speech, besides giving him confidence in his abilities. Indeed, some of our seniors have been known to outrival the long-distance orators of the United States Senate in their display of eloquence. The Society has recently entered upon a policy of expansion. In the Fall of 1899. we left our former abode at Twenty-third Street and Lexington Avenue and took up our residence in the comparatively “palatial ” quarters provided for us in the annex. Here under the fatherly guidance of Assistant Professor Martin, of the Department of House-cleaning (a protege of our beloved (?) Dr. Bonney), whose interest in our work has transformed what would otherwise be a path of thorns into a bed of roses, Phrenocosmia has entered upon an epoch of extraordinary success. Our finances, always sound, were never in such an excellent state; our membership was never so large, and our members were never so willing to do serious work. With conditions so favorable, the future seems particularly bright for Phrenocosmia. 47 Phrenocosmian Society OFFICERS i id Ttrm 143d Ttrm 144th Term President, Moisb K. Cohen, Sol.

Its object, as set forth in the Constitution, is “ to promote growth in grace and Christian fellowship among its members, and aggressive Christian work, especially by and for students.” Membership in this asso- ciation includes membership in the Students’ Club, with all the privileges of the latter. It also includes privileges in all the associations of the various colleges throughout the city. This year’s work was begun by a reception, held at the Student’s Club, which was not only an enjoyable affair, but secured many new friends for the association. A Bible Class is conducted under its auspices, which meets once a week for the study of the Acts and Epistles. Furthermore, prominent speakers are occasionally secured, to whose addresses the entire student body is always invited. Last January a very successful concert was given at the Students’ Club, the proceeds of which were used to start a missionary library. This library consists at present of twenty-two volumes, and will be increased from time to time. In connection with it a Missionary Reading Circle was organized, which meets once a month, to enable the members to compare notes on the different books read. The association was represented by several delegates at the Northfield Students’ Conference last summer, and at the Cleveland Conference in 1898, while each year it sends its president to the Presidents’ Training Conference. A feature of the association’s work that is much appreciated by the students are the hand- books that arc published by the Students’ Club and distributed in the college. Plans for next year’s work are being made, and a very successful year is expected. Although the association labors under peculiar difficulties, its past success and slow, but steady, growth lead to the belief that it will be still more successful in the future, and that it will continue to exercise greater influence every year. 9S Young Men’s Christian Association a OFFICERS J.

The secret character of the Association forbids the exposition of all its rules and methods, but a few extracts from its Constitution are desirable and allowable. §5. Misogynists of the first degree must not keep company with any female on the public streets ; must not sit near or by any female in the parlor or residence of said female under a light of less than ten candle-power, and with a distance intervening of less than six feet. For every hair over three inches long found on a Brother Misogynist a fine of one dollar shall be levied ; but should such hair or hairs be of a gray or white tint, there will be a rebate of 75 per cent. §6. The same conditions attach to a Muck-a-Muck Misogynist of the second degree, but the light must be an electric light, of a twenty-five candle power, and the distance twelve feet. M-aM-B-M.’s of the second degree must also abstain from looking at sidewalks or crossings, in season of rain or thaw, when females are crossing the street corners, or entering cars or stages: also §7. High Muck-a-Muck Misogynists of the third degree must abstain from the foregoing, and must not attend balls, mixed tennis matches, boating expeditions, straw-rides, and moonlight hammock siestas.

In May 1899, about 300 students from the upper classes met and elected seven gentlemen from the Junior, five from the Sophomore, and one from the Freshman, as an Executive Committee to establish a paper devoted entirely to the stimulating and the fostering of a literary spirit in college. To these a representative from Clionia and one from Phrenocosmia were added. This Committee selected the editors, and has since controlled the publishing of the paper. To per- petuate this idea of a representative literary paper, provision is made in the Constitution of the Association for the election of a new Committee each year by the subscribers, and this Committee in turn chooses the editors. 123 EOITORS OF THE COLLEGE REVIEW 4 The Associate Alumni OF THE COLLEGE OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK. % HE first graduating class of 1853 the New York Free Academy organized the Asso- ciation, which is now continued under the above name. The Constitution was very simple, and has been altered but seldom, and only to adopt itself to the increase in membership. The government, in the absence of specific instructions, is vested in an Executive Committee consisting of fourteen members at large and a representative from each class. An annual social meeting is held on the day of commencement, and an annual business meeting on the third Saturday in October. The first annual dinner was held in 1880, and they have been since continued to the twenty-first, held in February, 1900. OFFICERS Edward M. Shepard. ’69, James M. Donald, '72, ) Frank Keck,’ 71, .

In 1857 the Associate Alumni established a fund for the purpose of assisting students who might otherwise find difficulty in completing their collegiate course. This fund is maintained by contributions from the Alumni. The management of the fund is committed to five Trustees, who loan, without interest, such sums as they think proper to deserving students, and neither the names of those to whom loans are made nor the amounts of the loans are known to any but the Trustees and the Auditors of the fund. The following are the present Trustees to whom applications may be made : John Hardy, ’53, Alfred G. Compton, ’53, Samuel L. Holt, ’53, Everett P. Wheeler. ’56. John R.

Three years later it removed to its present home at 133 Lexington Avenue. The memberships comprise Alumni of the College, former students who reached the Sophomore year in classes that have graduated, instructors in the College, and members of the Board of Trustees. The objects of the Club are to promote acquaintance and union among its members, and to further the interests of the College, and of free public education. The Club has not been content to be a social organization merely; it has taken an active interest in the welfare of the College. Projects for its improvement and expansion have been its chief concern, and the home of the Club is ever at the sendee of the friends of the College. OFFICERS. Alex. P.

HE balmy air of the Spring-day was floating in through the open windows, holding in its embrace a languor which—but for further details, kindly consult the circular issued by the manufacturers of that sarsaparilla, enumerating the symptoms in a style more vivid and exact than I could dare aspire to. The sole point with which we have any concern, however, is that the class in Ancient Speculation had yielded to the influences of the atmosphere, and were soporifically inclined. The only person with any degree of visible animation was the Professor, who very earnestly was attempting to simplify the complicated ramblings of the text-book. In the endeavor, he wandered slightly from the subject, and was tracing incidentally one of his pet hobbies down the aeons of time. He had just corralled the unfortunate theory somewhere in misty Medievalism, and wagers were freely laid and taken as to whether, in the remaining forty minutes, he would pilot it safely to Spencer (the Professor’s unvarying, ultimate destination) when suddenly a diversion offered. Through the open windows were wafted the dulcet strains of a popular street song. The Professor was nervous that morning, and did not relish the accompaniment. His auditors were grinning inanely for lack of something more amusing, and he turned sharply to one of them. “Mr. A.,” he commanded, please go downstairs and order that organ-grinder to go away !’’ The student addressed nodded obediently, but ere the door closed upon him he had bestowed upon his comrades a broad and expansive wink. Wending his way into the street, he confronted the Orpheus of the tenements. What passed between them was not very clear, save that a hand- ful of pennies was delivered by the student to the itinerant, and then the former, after glancing at the repertoire of tunes, selected two of the liveliest, and returned to the class-room. When he entered, one of the tunes he had chosen was merrily pealing forth from below. The Professor looked at him in indignant query. A— mournfully answered the uuspoken ques- tion : I told him to move on, sir, and he promised to. He can’t have understood me.’’ «38 Well, Mr. X—the Professor vexedly addressed another student, suppose you go down and see if you can be comprehended.” Now, X— had as keen a sense of humor as had A—, and his transaction with the organ- grinder was a repetition of the other, save that he selected a Midway Plaisance medley overlooked by his predecessor. When he, in his turn, re entered the recitation room, this last harmony was blending with the clang of the car-gongs and other incidental minor strains. The grin on the faces of the class had almost become audible. X— opened fire before the Professor had an opportunity. His tale was that the musician had remained obdurate to all threats and cajolings, and had insisted on remaining where he was. Unfortunately, however, the Professor, actuated by some new-born suspicion, had watched the entire transaction from the window. For a moment he did not reply, while he critically surveyed the student. Then he spoke: “ That’s too bad! Oh, well, then, I suppose we may as well proceed. Only I have decided that instead of a lecture to-day, I will give you an examination on the month’s work. You would better begin immediately.’’ And for the next half-hour those miserable victims alternately labored and swore, all of them being unprepared, the majority absolutely ignorant of the subject, and the few that knew even a little were rendered desperate in their efforts to record it, by that distracting Oriental melody. Several hurried and abortive attempts were made to induce the organ-grinder to cease, but he, with a rigid sense of duty, explained Zat he been-a paid zat-a tune, an’ he-a knew hees beeznis.” Meanwhile the Professor fanned himself and smiled amiably. Jingles Tiny little letters, On a tiny card, So the little ponies Glanced at on the sly, Help the jolly student, Answer questions hard. Make the naughty Freshmen “ Sophies’’ by and by. My pony, ’tis of thee. Emblem of liberty, Of thee I sing. Book of my college days, Worthy of fondest praise, Worthy of poet’s lays, I'd tribute bring. � 39 One on the Professor Or, How the Section Got a Day Off. HI? atmosphere in the room of the Decayed Language was becoming decidedly oppressive. Likewise, the heat. The Professor was hearing the recitation in a semi-trance. Exactly two men in the room were happy ; namely, the Fat Boy and the Villain. The former was blissfully asleep with a serenely peacful expression and an open mouth. The Villain who sat next to him, was also happy, having just swooped down upon and artistically captured an able bodied fly, with ulterior and unhallowed designs on the aforesaid mouth. With these two exceptions everyone was attempting to forget his troubles, and the patient Head of Section cussed liberally, for the O. B. P. book was flourishing like unto a green bay tree. The fellow reciting had just struck a short stumpy tailless little verb wandering around loose, and naturally guessed “ Second Aorist.” And doubtless it would have been, had he not neglected to notice that it was continued on the line below. Being philosophic he merely stuck to “ Second Aorist,” and struck a noun the next time. Then, simultaneously two things happened. Firstly, the door opened. Secondly, The Villain had just dropped the fly in the Fat Boy’s oral cavity and was now cutting off its escape by means of his hand. As the door opened, however, he glanced up, and his arm fell to his side. Unfortunately this did not materially aid the fly. For the Fat Boy awoke with a gasp, convulsively closed his mouth and turned wildly toward the Villain. But before he had time to open his mouth and veil, he caught sight of the vision in the door, and stopped short—staring. It was a cool breezy Vision in fluffy hair, striped shirtwaist, faultless complexion, and tan shoes, who paused for one ecstatic moment at the door, and then confidently tripped toward the Professor. The assembly was electrified. Hot weather positions were abandoned in a moment, the careless man slung on his coat, blushing painfully, and the demand for O. B P’s came to an abrupt pause. As for the Professor he looked embarrassed, but gratified. The section sympa- thized heartily. But before the original Vision could open her lips to speak two more of the same kind peeped in at the door and then hastened towards the desk. Things were becoming decidedly interesting, and the Blas6 Man in the corner begau to take an interest in life. The Moralist gazed mournfully at the Professor, his faith shaken in even the most sacred of human nature. These latter two Visions seemed to have been a signal. For then the avalanche began. A score of girls, women and females, got into the room in one rush, and the Juvenile cheerfully announced from the hall that the supply was not nearly exhausted. Several varieties of Bedlam were let loose in the room itself. Then the Professor of the Decayed Language rose in his wrath 140 and demanded an explanation. All the time new arrivals were trickling in. Thereupon the crowd of women began to talk at once. The Nervous Man although he hated to do so, hurriedly left the room. Finally, however, the Professor silenced them all (oh, everyone admits that he is a remarkable man !) and asked one, by accident, the prettiest to elucidate. Immediately there were forthcoming scores of printed slips from that day’s newspapers. “ Wanted—Three attrac- tive young lady typewriters, Apply in Person between 10.30 a.m. and 2 p. m. Prof.-Room ---College of City of New York, 23d St. and Lexington Ave.” 5 Let us pass over the painful scenes after the Professor swore that he knew nothing about the “ ads.” Suffice it to say that driven to desperation by indignant femininity and the constant stream of new arrivals, he ignominously fled to the quiet of his own home, and the section unani- mously voted to take the day off. Also that for the rest of the day newly arrived Visions were wandering all over the most sacred precints of our ancient halls. Also, that 27 of the applicants went home with devoted escorts. There had been 28 men in the Professor’s section. The Fat Boy went home and told the Doctor. Sic Vita Est. A lad, A miss, A dream of bliss, A dad Amiss, Alas !—no kiss. 141 Soliloquies on Return to College.

Aside from the bustling appearance of the place, a little sign above the entrance announced it to be a “ busy day.” Presently from the depths of space, a man appeared bearing a tag which read : “ From New York via Interstellar Express Co.,” and after carefully brushing away a small cloud, which had become entangled with his shoe-string, he presented a card to St. Peter stamped with the mysterious initials, O. B. P. After a moment's careful scrutiny Peter turned to the huge book of records and proceeded to “ look him up.” Meanwhile the care-worn applicant pressed his face eagerly against the bars of Heaven and stared longingly at the beautiful sight within. It is deplorable that the earth was created; Heaven would have been sufficient. There, as he nodded knowingly to some of his former chums who went flying by, he could scarcely resist the tempting and magnificent sight before him. Hills, dales and valleys, lay all about him, before him rose a huge rock covered on one side by moss and wild flowers, known only to the realms of Paradise, while on the other side was carefully inscribed, “ Use Sapolio for that tired feeling.” Gold was lying all about abund- antly, even more abundantly than I am lying now. Nevertheless after frequent use of a bottle marked ink and a much more frequent use of one marked whiskey (which latter fact appears less sacrilegious than might be expected when we con. sider that Heaven and its alternative are the most likely places in the universe for ‘‘spirits,” and Heaven especially for its good spirits), Peter, turning toward the applicant, asked : ‘‘ During your mortal existence did you ever tell a lie ?” “ No,” replied the applicant, in pure, innocent tones. ‘‘ Then I take it, this is your first,” said Peter, as he again consulted the bottle, by way of a ‘‘ smile ” at his own joke. ” But did you ever inflict barbarous original jokes, or poems about ‘ beautiful, beautiful spring,’ on unsuspecting, defenseless friends and editors? ” “ Never,” was the prompt response. ‘‘ You say you went to college. While there, did you ever tell the professor that on returning from college the day before, you had, in your hurry to leave the L train, left your Latin Prose Book behind, and that in attempting to board the train to get it, the L guard slammed the gate upon your fingers, and that you ‘ really couldn’t write the lesson in the class- room to-day ? ’ ” ‘‘ No! ” cried the anxious candidate. As he uttered this, Peter, dumbfounded with surprise, let drop a tear, and with faltering voice replied: ‘43 “Young man, excuse my apparent frivolity. You are a rare specimen. Go back, go back to the Earth and be a blessing there. There are such a few of your kind there that they can’t spare you, go back, I can’t conscientiously take you in here and rob the earth of a “ good thing.’’ Between the Acts. With a sort of admiration That suggested fascination “Tizzy ” watched a molecule that floated off in space, While a look of satisfaction That arose from lack of action Very slowly, very slowly, crept across his passive face. And he ever kept a-blinking All the while a-thinking, thinking, Till suddenly a threat’ning frown begau his brow to dark, For he now was recollecting That, By Zeus ! he’d been neglecting To give the last man up the logarithm of his mark. Frosty. The day was cold, the gripman’s breath Congealed, then froze upon his beard. Said one who rode, “ You’ll freeze to death, Where are your furs ?” The gripman sneered, The biting air grew stiller, He spoke, and pointing to his beard, “Ain't it a real chinchilla?” «44 Conversation Imagininarius (According to Cicero, Dorm us, Homer, Herbius, Plato, Pluto, Tacitus, Tissitus, etc.) SCENE.—The ancient college. TIME.—B. C. and O. B. P., (principally the latter). DRAMATIS PERSONA}.—Two Sophomores. 1ST Soph.—Hail, O, Fellow student! But whither indeed v ) ta goest thou ? 2D Soph.—Verily indeed, I, while Sleep, twin sister to Death, ruled the earth and the deadly pale shades of Erebus and darkest night, partook of a feast upon painted Maurasian couches. And, as our author says, knowing not the two-fold logos and what not, I fUv 6i cut the hour which Minerva’s hewers of wood (digs) are devoting to the logiken. 'kl A pip 6 ) for what purpose dost thou seek the aether f 1ST Soph.—And I myself, even as you relate, being such an one as you perceive, when all the spirits were being tormented in Hades, on the one hand, poured out—into myself—a liba- tion of wine to Bacchus, and on the other hand, it was not well with me afterward, being sick as to my head. So therefore verily indeed truly, I am here firstly because it would make me nearer to death to hear more about my former assistant «117� f Wilkenson and meus filius Xa-apilof, and secondly, that I might study about what everybody «re. 2D Soph.—But indeed, truly I say, concerning these, harsh grief would have possessed me. But, dost go to ply thy brain while yet the rosy fingered daughter of Dawn- ? 1ST Soph, (interrupting)—Notbyadamsight [The full import of this idiom would be lost in translation ; it is therefore left in the original.] 2D Soph.—Whither indeed then, per diis? 1ST Soph.—At the high tribunal a malefactor is to be cut off as to his head for the reason of damtAXs. Thither about il-o n opacity) a( this way, I, as I have said, will go on the winged Zephyrus that I might be able to behold, as he used to say, the affair completed—the executioner having great skill. 2D Soph —Let us beforehand by omnipotent Bound, relax our inner being with a poculo ; having first tossed up a denarius in order that we may know whom the divinity points out to put up the 'o(k .6v in payment thereof. (The denarius is produced.) 1ST Soph.—Capites ! 2D Soph.—Krda .i? it is. The Poculum is on me. (Exeunt in tabernam.) 145 The Genesis of Greek (BY A SOPH.) A fiend who dwelt in Hell’s eternal fire, Urged on by thirst for gore and hatred blind (Which, with his race, he bore to all mankind), Racking his brain for some new torture dire, To cast upon them, went out on the mire Of putrid Styx. The noisome, reeking wind, Bore to him cries of those, who left behind, By Charon, ne’er to Tartarus might aspire. The frenzied shrieks with gladness filled his soul; With fiendish joy he quickly noted down The harshest sounds ; and as he shook with mirth, He with his blazing finger on a coal Did burn the signs by which those sounds are known, And called it “ Greek,” and hurled it down to earth.

Thou shalt have no other Prexes before me. II. Thou shalt not make unto thyself any ponies, or any likeness of anything that is in the book in front, or in the book behind, or in any of the pages of the book. Thou shalt not bend thy eyes down to them nor use them: for I, the man thy Prex, am a strict Prex, visiting the iniquity of the Junior upon the students of the Freshmen class of them that fear me. III. Thou shalt not take the name of the man thy Prex in vain, for the man will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. IV. Remember the examination day to keep it in mind. Five days shalt thou study and do all thy flunking ; but the seventh day is the day set apart for Sunday school ; in it thou shalt not do any study, thou nor the Senior, nor the Junior, nor the Sophomore, nor the Freshman, nor any student that is within thy gates. V. Honor thy Prof and thy Title that thy days may be long in the lands where billiard saloons and drinks are free. VI. Thou shalt not kill thyself with firearms, spirituous liquors, soap or water, or any means of gaming whatever. VII. Thou shalt not commit thyself to cribs. VIII. Thou shalt not steal above five dollars' worth of “ explanation blanks a year. IX. Thou shalt not bear witness of any kind. X. Thou shalt not covet thy classmate's book ; thou shalt not covet thy classmate’s mark nor his plug, nor his cane, nor his pony, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy classmate’s. 147 Burial of Sir. Soph O. More Not a whispered prompt, not a sound was heard, As the Soph to his flunk was hurried, Not a comrade revealed the longed-for word To the man so sadly flurried. Prof, buried him deeply with zeros down, With zeros without a warning, By the cheerful beam of the noon-day sun, And his comrades’ idle scorning. No useless talk did the Prof, expend, Nor permit of an explanation, But wrote him down with his pen and ink, The circle of ruination. Few and short were the words he spoke, And he spoke not a word of sorrow, But the Soph he gazed into vacancy, And bethought him a crib to borrow. Slowly and sadly the Soph sat down, Like a saint or a martyred hero ; But the Prof, and the section left just then, Left him alone with his zero. Unless— “ I can never forgive you,” she answered. He had wickedly stolen a kiss, And now he was begging forgiveness, But surely she could not mean this. ” I can never forgive,” she repeated, “ That base and unmanly attack, Unless—” and she paused for a moment— “ Unless you at once give it back.” Ye Mo(u)rnful Jingle The Freshman youth he cometh late, Calaloo, calaloo, oh, He entereth not the name and date, Calaloo, calaloo, oh ; He doth this same thing five times straight, One hundred demerits do him await, And he is bounced from out the gate, Calaloo—loo—loo, oh. 148 A Missing Youth A babbling brook, A maiden coy, A shady nook, A foolish boy, A loving kiss, A papa mad, A blushing miss, A fleeing lad. A Song of College Sing a song of College, Pocket lull of “ chink,” Ah—to H------with knowledge Come and take a drink. Sing a song of nickels, Matching all the time, How the money trickles, With a pleasing chime. When the crib is open, How the men recite ! For home all day they’re hoping Ne’er go home at night. When the pot is opened— If you have enough, Stay in. If you haven’t, Go in on a bluff. Sing a song of luncheon, Bought for nickels five, When you’ve finished munching, Thank God if you’re alive. When your body’s opened, The doctors all will meet, But you’ll have gone to realms of light, Or else to realms of heat. J49 Von Schnabler on College Customs LI, here I vas soom more again.

One she must loose, Her father tells her so, To buy them both he must refuse, And so this maiden has to choose For wheel, or whoa ! Refrain Golden rimmed seems every cloud, Joyful now my heart at last, I step with vigor through the crowd As each one cries, exams, are past. With springing step I go my way, Nor do I care for wind or blast, For each fresh breeze now seems to say, Rejoice again, exams, are past. Then gaily to the logs I draw My chair and pipe, and in I cast The last-term cribs I’ll use no more, And gladly say exams, are past. The Sophomore’s Soliloquy. To ride or not to ride—that is the question, Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and jokes of sarcastic profs, Or to take a horse against a sea of troubles, And, by riding, end them. To sleep, to ride—yea, more ; And by a ride to say we end The headache, the burning late of midnight oil, And the legion difficult constructions That the student is heir to—'tis a consummation Devoutly to be wished. To ride, to sleep— To sleep! perchance to dream—ay, there’s the rub; For in that sleep to dream that the professors have Tumbled to our racket Must give us pain. A Touching Incident It was the beginning of another day’s struggle. A deathly stillness reigned. Kach man felt the necessity for silence and tacitly obeyed it. In the hush the task of accounting for the missing grew most impressive. Anxiously each man waited as the response came to name after name, or to the more impressive silence—where there was none to answer. The white-haired old man in front of them called off a name: “ Kudlich,” he said. “ Here,” replied a deep voice. Madigan ”-. Silence greeted the name. A wave swept over his comrades as they turned toward whence the missing man’s voice should have come. There was more than one anxious face. Ere recording the name as missing, he who had the list paused for a moment. ” Did any one see him to-day?” Silence for a second, then the man who had answered to the name of Kudlich spoke. “ Yes. He was here, but he took an O. B. P.” We are very sorry if the gentle reader has been under a false impression. 15a The Dig and the Flaunter And the Dig digged even unto the end. And lo ! the Pearl of Desire, the “ Max ” was his. But the Flaunter, far beneath the Dig stood he. Nevertheless was he without grace, and he said unto the Dig: “ Knowest thou not that there is something more to be desired than marks, yea than much fine marks, and sweeter too than Prizes and the Medal-list ? ” And the Dig answered not. For he knew not whereof the Flaunter spake. And the Dig was a Wise Man, nevertheless was he even a fool. Moral: There grows a Pit before ye that “ dig.” So beware lest ye fall therein. Heard After the Debate Fragmentary, but faithfully rendered. “ Three cheers for Cliocosmo Phreuomia.” ” Oh, we won’t go home ’til mornin’ ” “ Oh, here’s to New College, drink (bic) it down,” “ Holy Smoke ! One o’clock ! Mosh extraordinary thing ! ” ‘ Dont care if I do ! ” “ There’s nothing like a debate.” “ Here y’are, conductor, here’sh nickel, y’can keep change, ol’ man. Whoop.” Bins ! Zwii ! ! Dry ! ! ! ” ” Rah ! Rah ! Rah ! Rah ! Ra—Ra ! ! ” «53 Words, Words, Words AY I ask, professor ? ” a studious collegian said, 44 When the mind prepares to sense an object with all its contiguous and spatially related associations which must pro- ject on consciousness a subjective image or idealization of our past experiences in a more or less coherent conglomeration or homogeneous synthesis, as it were, from which an individual perception may become a universal content, or to state it more fully, our con- sciousness may attend or cerebrate in a manner best called redintergrative, which we can ”----------- “ Hold on a minute,” said the smiling professor, 44 You say, in effect, that our past fusions or representations of past conscious states by association through spatial and temporal resemblances are, in a manner, idealizations or projected images into objective realms of purely subjective impressions ; now you say, ‘ an individual perception.’ I take issue with you there. There can l e no such thing. For if our unconscious cerebration could produce homogeneous and concomitant differentiated presentations, why what would be the use of hands and feet, etc. ? ” But the student had proved that the legs have a use. Just Think A little beer, a little rum, And cocktails one or more, Is a receipt to bring again The college 14 daze ” of yore. Heads of great men all remind us, If we choose the proper method, We can get up in the morning, With a head as big as they had. Verbis Novis (With Apologies to Everybody.) 44 You look rather tired,” the tennis ball said, As he smiled down in pride from the shelf. “And you, sir, appear,” growled the wheel in reply, “ Like you’d been on a racket yourself.” The small piece of string straddled up to the box, 44 I’m going to do you up, see ! ” The box gave a yawn and contemptuously said, 44 Pooh ! You cannot get that on to me.” The Dutch band played upon the street In strains of music grand, 44 There is no doubt,” the critic said, 41 That that’s a 4 tootin’ band.” 154 The Gown That Once in College Halls {With Apologies to Sir Thomas.) The gown that once in college halls The mighty Senior wore, Now hangs all torn on hat-room walls (Oh, how that Senior swore!) For th’ irreverent Fresh with clumsy feet Stepped on the hem,the gown, it tore, Alas, for dreams of greatness sweet! The Senior wore that gown no more. No more in chapel every day The heart of Senior swells; The gown now dusty, old and gray, Its tale of ruin tells. Until our sisters show us how, A skirt with ease to guide, The Freshman fresh with clumsy feet Will humble Senior pride. After Kipling {Very Much After.) Oh, a Senior there was, and he spent his gold (Even as you and I) For a rag and a board that lie called a cap, And a black death-bag with a crib-lined flap, (Even as you and I). And O, for the jokes that the Juniors told, (Even as you and I), And Oh, for the smirks of the “ Freshman ” bold, ’Till the wearied Senior the outfit sold, (Even as you and I). Jingles From Herodotus There was a Persian named Cyrus, Who of kingdom was very desirous, With the help of his mother He got at his brother, But was soaked in the rear near Epirus. A royal young woman named Io Fell in love with a man from Argeio, But when the Phoenicians Stole her from the Grecians, She wept, and she hollered Oh, my Oh ! 155 Imagination vs. Realization An imaginative poet Came to C. C. N. Y. Raving of Nature’s beauty And the grandeur of the sky. But— He learned that stars were hydrogen An unromantic mass, That Jupiter and Venus, in Elliptic orbits pass. He saw the Heaven’s lightning Made by a Holtz machine, And learned that the harmless lumps of chalk Polyzoa once had been. He learned that the whitecapped ocean Was Na Cl H O, That the lily’s spotless fabrics By insusception grow. He found that the painted rainbow— God’s pledge—as poets feign, Was transverse oscillations Somersaulting in the rain. His poetry now was useless, And his metaphors, too, of course, So he’s trying to square the circle And find a five-toed horse. Dirge Traveler soft thy footsteps now, A youth he was so full of life, Approach the grave with drooping head, How much his weight I do not know, For here we must all reverence show, But still you thought it was a ton And prize the memory of the dead. When once he landed on your toe. But, now, alas, he’s gone away, For, although hard he tried to-cram His cranium cracked, so there he lies A victim of—his first exam. 156 Here and There “ And what, Mr. W., should you say is the relation which the written Constitutions of the several States bear to the charters of the old English company corporations ? ’ ’ asked the Profes- sor of History. “Well, I should say, Professor, answered the philosophical Junior, gently stroking his embroyo beard, “ I should say that it is a natural outgrowth.” Prof.—“ Mr. Blank, give a sentence illustrating the adage that money talks V '03 (cheerfully.)—“ The murmur of a cent came from the crowd—” “Gentlemen, exclaimed Prof. McN-ty, as he passed his hand caressingly over a wide expanse of vest, “ Gentlemen, it is the middle-man that thrives at the expense of society.” And the section agreed. Prof. C.—“ When the accommodation of the eye weakens, what do you get ? S—'or (brightly.)—“Spectacles. Tutor (addressing a student of one of his Freshman sections.)—“ Look here, Mr. X.,you are a donkey to study aiid cram as you do. You ought to be more in the open air, otherwise your health will soon fail you. I am speaking to you now as a brother. And the section smiled. Prof. Endormus (lecturing.)—“We are indebted to the Moors for much of our scientific knowledge, among other things the introduction of alcohol.” And then he became provoked because the class smiled audibly. Prof. M-N-ty (expounding.)—“ Yes, gentlemen, you and I can talk and talk, and yet, after all, what does it all amount to ? German Room. Prof.—“ Translate, T-yl-r, ' the soldier’s wife’. T-yl-r.—“ Die Frauen der soldaten. Prof.—“ Not Frau ’; the days of that are past. Scene : Junior History. Prof.—“ Mr. S. what was the influence of the Church upon the laity at this time ? S.—“ Hem—ah—that’s in the review, isn’t it? I was absent.” (The dodge had always worked before.) Prof.—“ Ah ! I had failed to credit you with that absence. I will do so now. Instructor.—“ Hydrogen is an invisible gas, some of which you may see in the vessel on the table. 157 Prof.—“Give an illustration of a fraud.” Student.—“ Conditioning a man on an exam.” P.—'“How so?” S.—“ Because it is using a person’s ignorance to do him harm. '03.— Whereupon Regulus telegraphed to Rome.” Verily there is nothing new under the sun. It is said that even the “ex re” was discov- ered by Cicero, and that Noah made the great “ arc light ”—which he must have done to have it float. ’03 (translating.)—“In atxlain decoram Glyceram.” “To the temple decorated with Glycerine.” Wanted.—An illustration of a Greek text. A full set of Greek books (Hind’s edition,) will be given for the best pen and ink sketch of the following: An eight-footed pterodactyle of the choriambic species, followed by two trochees, carrying a caesural pause, having a procleus- matic foot with a slight anacrusis and a small iambic dragging behind him, a catalectic syllable. Spondees mounted upon cyclic, anapests supported on either side by epitritus in the back- ground. The whole to be represented in either irrational or time. 158 Senior Class Committees a President Shiff of the Senior Class has named the following Committees: CLASS DAY. F. E.
