Although the recent close of the war had rendered the time an unfavorable one, subscriptions to the amount of $220,000 were soon procured. This was deemed sufficient to justify the erection of a college : and the question of location was the next to present itself for solution. Several towns in the central part of the State were competitors for the institution. The decision, however, was finally rendered in favor of Richmond. The new institution first opened its doors to students in September of 1S74. The opening was auspicious. More students matriculated than even the most hopeful had expected. When first established, the University comprised the College of Philosoph -, Letters and Science, at Richmond, Ky., and the Hospital College of Medicine, at Louisville, Ky. Rev. R. S. Breck, D. D. , was chosen Chancellor, and Rev. J. W. Pratt, D. D., President, ot the first named college. The severe financial depression which the new institution was soon called upon to go through with rendered reorganization necessary ; and Drs. Blanton and Logan were elected to the offices vacated by the resignation of Drs. Breck and Pratt. Under the new manage_ ment the University immediately entered upon a career of prosperity and success ; large sums were added to the endowment, new departments were established, and larger num- bers of students were enrolled. The first great department to be added to the University was the College of Dentistry, at Louisville. This soon became one of the largest and most prosperous colleges of the institution. In 1S97 the College of Law, with Judge William Chenault as President, was estab- lished. Although still in its infancy, this school is inferior to none in the State, and promises in time to become one of the most prosperous of the University ' s departments. Four branch schools have also been founded, as follows : A Preparatory Department, at Richmond, Ky.; S. P. Lees Collegiate Institute, at Jackson, Ky.; Hardin Collegiate Institute, at Elizabethtown, Ky., and Middlesboro University School, at Middlesboro. Ky. 9 All of these have a large atteiulauce. are doing good work, and in every va - are a credit to the parent institution. Although Central University- is not a strictly military school, yet her .students have, since 1892, had the advantages of military drill. This department has at its liead an officer of the regular army. This feature has become quite a drawing card. In 1S98, through the generosity of Mrs, Sarah A- Miller, a new gymnasium, com- modious and completely fitted with apparatus, was added to the buildings on the campus. Its classes are under the charge of a competent physical director, and all the students are expected to participate in the work. The Board of Curators have undertaken, during the present year, to add $100,000 to the endowment, which shall l)fc called the twentieth century endowment finid. In accordance with the suggestion of the Synod ' s Committee of ' isitation, the Rev. J. V. Tyler, M. A., an alumnus of Central I ' niversity, is now associated with Dr. Blanton in procuring this fund. In this necessarily short sketch we have endeavored to enable the readers of the Cream and Crimson to realize something of the magnitude of the work which Central University is doing toward training and ennobling the youth of this and many other States. It is wonderful to note what rapid strides she has made ; established only a quarter of a century ago, she has, in a short time, risen to be the first institution of the State, and has obtained a high rank among the Universities of the South. James Venable Logan, D. D., LL. D., President of the Faculty. Dr. James ' eiiable Logan was born July ii, 183S, in Scott County, Kentucky, where his early life was spent. After graduating from Centre College, in 1854. he entered the Theological Seminary at Dan -ille, Ky., from which he received his second diploma. His first charge was the pastorate of the Presbyterian Church at Harrodsburg, Ky., which position he held for eight years. In 1.S68 he went to Louisville, where he edited a publi- cation known as The Christian Commonwealth. In 1S76 Dr. Logan was appointed b - the Synod to the Chair of Ethics and Christian Evidences in Central I ' niversity, and four years later he was elected President of the instilutinn. His degrees were conferred by Hampden Siclne Cullege. Dr. Logan is beloved b - all who know him. Lewis Green Barbour, D. D., LL. D. Dr. Barbour is one of the oldest, best loved and most widely known educators in the State of Kentucky. He was born at Danville, Ky., September 19, 1829, and was graduated from Centre College in 1846, and again from Princeton Theological Seminary in 1N51. During several succeeding years he taught and preached at Bowling Green and Lexington, Ky. For five years he .served as President of the famous Elizabeth Anil Seminary at Lexington, Mo. Returning to his native State he accepted and held during eight years the principalship of the Caldwell Institute at Danville, Ky. When Central University was established, in 1874, Dr. Barbour became a member of the Faculty. He has been with the institution ever since, and at present occupies the Chair of Bible and His- tory. Coming to the Universit}- in the evil da3 ' s which succeeded her founding, the Doctor ' s efforts have helped to give to her the name and position which she possesses. Dr. Barbour has spent his life in loving labor for the youth of his country, and many are the lives which have been touched, and many the characters molded b}- the admonition and exam- ple of this good and scholarly man. Charles Graham Crooks, M. A., Secretary of the Faculty. Prof. C. G. Crooks was born in Scott Count}-, K -., in i860. His early education was received at Pisgah Seminary, in Woodford Count ' , Ky. In 18S1 he entered the Sopho- more Class at Central University, where he graduated three years later, taking the degree of Bachelor of Arts. A ear later he entered the Union Theological Seminar ' at Hamp- den Sidney, ' irginia, wliere he remained two years. He became Assistant Professor ot Mathematics at Central Uni -ersity in 1886; and taking his M. A. degree held for four years the profes.sorship of Latin. At the expiration of that time Prof Crooks was elected to the Chair of Mathematics, which position he now holds. Prof. Crooks is one ot the most popular and best loved members of the P ' acnlty, and is a hearty advocate of college athletics. 14 1 James Tazewell Akers, M. A., Ph. D.

At his Alma Mater he occupied the position of Adjunct Professor of Modern Languages, English and Modern History. In 1S84 he received the degree of Ph. D., shortly after which he accepted a call to the Chair of English Lan- guage and Literature, which position he continues to occupy. 15 Gordon Paxton, M. A. Professor Paxlon was l:)orn in Rockbridge Count_ ' , irginia, in 1S72. He was graduated at the age of twentj -oiie from the Uni -ersit ' of ' irginia, tak- ing both the B. A. and M. A. degrees. During the following }-ear he was Professor of Latin at Marion Military Institute, Marion, Ala., leaving that institution to accept the princi])alship of the preparatory department of Central University. In 1895 he was elected to the Chair of Latin in the Universit , which position he now occupies. Professor Paxton is a young man, but has proven himself in every wa ' qualified for his position. He possesses the con- fidence and respect of his fellow professors and the student li(id -. 16 .__ William Foster, Jr., Ph. D. ■ Dr. William Foster, Jr., was born at Hartford, K -., Ma ' 15, 1S69. He received his early education at Hartford College and at Vanderbilt Universit}-. Following this he was for two years Professor of Natural Sciences at Hartford College. In September of 1895 he entered the graduate department of Princeton University, where after a year he received his A. M. During this year he was elected Secretary of the Graduate Club, Chairman of its Executive Committee, and delegate to the National Convention of Graduate Clubs, which met at the Uni- versity of Penn. The following year he served as Instructor in Analytic Chemistry at Princeton, and began work for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Choosing Chemistry for his major subject and Ps -chology and Physical Geography as his subsidiary subjects, he received his Ph. D. in June, ' 94, with highest honors. His Thesis was considered a splendid scientific production, and contained some valuable contributions to Physical Chemistry, which brought about an invitation to exhibit some of his research work before the Acadeni - of Science in New York City. In 1896 Dr. Foster was elected a member of the American Chemical Societj ' , In 1899 he returned to Kentuck} ' to fill the Chair of Chemistr}- in Central University. Dr. Foster takes great interest in the educational work of the state, a fact which brought about his election to the office of Second Vice-President of the Kentucky Educational Association in 1899, ■2 17 Prof. Robert Talbot Benton, B, A. Prof. R. T. Benton was born in Clark County, Ky., May i6, 1 74. His earl - education was received in the public schools of Carlisle and Mt. vSterling, Ky. He entered the freshman class at Central University in the fall of ' 92, and graduated in ' g6. Returning to the Univer- sity in the following year, he became Assistant Professor of Greek and Latin. During the year ' gy- ' QS he was Professor of Greek and Latin in the Middlesboro University school. After occupying the Chair of Latin and English in the S. P. Lees Institute for the year ' 98-99, Prof. Benton returned to his Alma Mater, where he occupies the position of Assistant Professor of Greek and Latin. Professor Benton is recognized by all who know him as a thorough teacher and a voung man of great ability. Asahel Wilkes Smith, M. D., D. D. S. Dr. A. Wilkes Smith was born in Champaign County, Ohio, where he received his early education. At the age of nineteen he began the study of Medicine and Dentistry. In 1870 he entered upon the practice of his profession, and two years later graduated from the Pennsyl- vania College of Dental Surgery. Again in 1SS4 he was graduated from the Hospital College of Medicine at Louisville, Ky. In 1S78 Dr. Smith became Clinical Pro ' essor of Oral Surgery in the Dental College of Ohio. When the Louisville College of Dentistry was founded. Dr. Smith became a member of its faculty ' and is still Emeritus Professor of Oral and Dental Surgery in that institution. Since 1875 he has made Richmond his home, and since 1881 has occupied the Chair of Physiology in Central University. 19 Major Robert W. Stephenson. Major Stephenson was born in Pulaski County, Ky., October 7, 1S75. His early education was received in the schools of his home at vSonierset. In the autumn of ' 93 he entered Senior Prep., and the next fall the University jjroper. While in college Major Stephenson took a great interest in the military department of the University, and rose rapidly in rank, until in ' 96, at the leaving of Capt. Wygant, he was placed in command of the department by the Faculty. In ' 97, under Lieutenant vS. P. ' estal, he was made Cadet Major, which office he held until his graduation in ' 98. Immediately after graduating he enlisted in the 6th United States Volunteer Infantry, which was soon ordered to Porto Rico, but arrived too late for active service. When Chancellor Blanton learned that Lieutenant Vestal ' s services could not be again secured, he immediately selected Major Stephenson as the best man for the place, and was fortunate in securing his services. Thu Major is very popular with the people of Rich- mond as well as with the Faculty and students, and it is needless to say that he is making a great success of the Military Dejiartment of our University. Prof. Frank A. Grosedose. Prof. F. A. Groseclose was born in Tazewell Count} ' , Va., Dec. 28tli, 1874. His early instruction was received partly from a governess and partlj ' at a public school. He afterward attended the Marion High School for one year, at the end of which he was forced to stop. Two years later, he spent seven months in attendance upon the same school. In 1892, while in the law office of his uncle, he decided to become a stenographer. He accordingly entered Liberty Academy, Chilhowie, Va., where he applied himself to the studj- of Phonography. In 1S93 Mr. Grosclose entered the Lexington Business College of Lexington, Ky., and made such rapid progress that he was made assistant of the department, which p osition he resigne d soon afterward to accept a position with the law firm of Ayers Kelly, Big Stone Gap, Va. In the spring of ' 95, he assumed charge of the Shorthand Department of the Le.Kington Business College, and in the summer of ' 96 passed, with honors, the teachers ' examination under Ben Pitman and Jerome B. Howard. A year later he resigned his position in the Business College to become Business Manager of the S. P. Lees Institute, Jackson, K)-. In January, 1899, he assumed charge of the newly established Business Department of Central University. Prof Groseclose ' s life is the reiterated story of what perseverance and true manhood can accomplish. Judge William Chenault. Judge William Chenault is a native of Madison County, Ky. He received his collegiate education at Georgetown College, in this state, and at Dartmouth, New Hampshire. After graduation, he took a course at the Harvard Law School, and also attended the Cuml.ierland I ' niversity Law School. In 1S62 he was licensed and admitted to the Bar. On account of his great legal ability he was .soon ranked among the ablest lawyers of the state. In 18S0 lie accepted a lectureship in the University of Louisville, which he retained for five years. He resigned the position on account of ill health, and moved to Kansas, where he practiced his profession until 1S93, when he returned to his native state.

In 1S99 Prof. Sanderson became Principal of the Preparator}- Department, which position he continues to hold. 24 .=.; .l The Hospital College of Medicine «J «£$ THE Curators of Central University, desiring to estal lish a Medical Department where there would be an abundance of clinical material, selected Louisville. Kv., as the site of the college. Clinical teaching has always been one of the chief aims in tlie course of instruction as laid out by the Faculty. The attendance has grown from ear to ear. attesting the ' alne of this method of instruction and demand- ing increased facilities for the accommodation of the students. The Faculty have added to the originally small Ijuilding, until now they possess a large and handsome building, with e ' er_v con ' enience for the most modern methods of instruction. To provide for bedside teaching and hospital experience, the Faculty purchased a plot of ground immediatel - in the rear of the college, and erected a large infirmary containing four wards, a number of private rooms, and a clinical amphitheater of the most recent design, thorougldy equipped with an arena tor aseptic surgerx ' , and ha -- ing a .seating capacity for o -er three hundred persons. The laboratories arc under the direction of experienced teachers, and are equipped with the latest and mosf improved apparatus. The large out-door department assures an abundant supph of clinical material illustrating all forms of disea.ses, and especially those incident to the southern and western portions of the United States. The Louis -ille City Hospital, which is situated across the street from the Hospital College of Medicine, is under the entire control of the Faculty of this College during half the session, where the students have the opportunity of observing almost everx ' kind of disease, or of surgical operation. The Hospital College of Medicine belongs to the Association of American Medical Colleges, which requires four courses of instruction in four separate years, but stutlents who are graduates of recognized colleges and universities and who have completed therein prescribed courses in elementar - branches of Medicine, including Chemistr - and Biolog_ ' , may apply for advanced standing , admitting them into the Sophomore Class. 26 T.

College of Dentistry, at Louisville, Ky Regular Session Begins the Second Wednesday in October, 1900, and Gjntinoes Seven Months. ' 6 6 The Board of Curators of the Central L ' liiversity of Kentucky, realizing that it would be more advan- tageous to have the Louisville College of Dentistry operated independent of the Hospital College of Medi- cine, has decided to separate the two. These departments have heretofore together occupied the large building on Chestnut street, opposite the City Hospital. Although the plot of ground, 6o by 200 feet, is entirely occupied by buildings, tlie growth of both departments has been so rapid that more room is neces- sary. The Board decided, therefore, to have the Hospital College of Medicine occupy the present building, a now one being erected for the Louisville College of Dentistry. The New College Building. The new building will be located at the northwest corner of Brook street and Broadway. The situa- tion is one of the most desirable in the city, being accessible from all points by the car lines running past its doors and their connections, and just far enough from the center of business to be free from the noise and dust there prevailing. The architect has given much study to the needs of the College, having made a personal examination of most of the dental colleges in the country before preparing the plans for this one. The building will be four stories high, of pressed brick, with haiulsome stone front corners. Abundance of light will be furnished by windows on both sides and a skylight along the entire center. There w ill be more than 25,000 square feet of floor space. The first floor will be devoted to prosthetic laboratories, lounging room, gymnasium, engine room and storage ; the second to didactic instruction and offices : the third to clinical, histological, bacteriological, junior and technic laboratories; and the fourth fioorwill be used exclusively for clinical practice. The building will be clevoted solely to dental instruction. Its equipment will be complete and modern in all details, and the Faculty feel that no institution in the coxintry will be able to furnish its students with superior facilities or conveniences. The building and the general management of the depart- ment will be in the hands of otVicers selected because. l y experience for many years both in active practice and intimate connection with dental colleges, they are especially fitted to take active charge of the institu- tion, with a full knowledge of the practical needs of its students. Students who desire to do so can attend the lectures in the Medical Department, at 324 East Chestnut street, free of charge, but it is not advisable, as the re(|uirenients for dental education have so increased that the time of the student is fully occupied. Situated near the college is the Gray Street Infirmary ; also the City Hospital. The wards of both are open at all times to the students of this College, and frequent opportunities of witnessing surgical operations are enjoyed by the class, thus giving the dental student much valuable instruction. The supply of clinical material is superior to that ofl ered by any other college, and arrangements have been made to have the clinic facilities more than double those of last year, so the student will have ani])le opportunity for practice in every class of dental art. The high standard of excellence which has long characterized the Louisville College of Dentistrv will be maintained, which is a sutTicient guarantee that the graduates of this school will be fully ei|uipped to become eminent in their profession. 34 Thomas M.

Central University College of Law e e ' J The charter of Central University provides f(jr the establishment of an institution of the highest order, which shonld include a College of Philosophy, Letters and Science, a College of Medicine, a College of Dentistr - and a College of Law. Three of these colleges were in operation prior to the opening of term of 1897-98, and it only remained to open a College of Law in order to carry out the full requirements and provisions of the charter. The growth and prosperity of the University, and the increased demand on the part of the Alumni of the institution were such that the Board of Curators decided that the most opportune time for the opening of the Law Department would be the first of October, 1897, and accordingly all necessary arraugements to this end were made. The Faculty chosen was: William Chenault, LL. D., J. V. Logan, LL. D,, and R. V. Miller, A. B., LL. B. William Chenault was made President of the P ' aculty. He was to be Professor of Ele- mentary Law, Pleading, Commercial Law, Real Property and Criminal Law. Dr. Logan was to take charge of the Department of Political Science and Economics, and Prof. Miller was Instructor in the Department of Contracts, Torts, Evidence, Equity and Corporations. With such a Faculty as this, how could the college fail to succeed and prosper? The courses of study were made elaborate, yet thorough, embracing Blackstone ' s Commentaries, Lawson, Stephen, Biglow, Greenleaf and Norton on Contracts, Pleadings, Torts, Evidence and Bills and Notes respectively, for the Junior Class, and Tiedeman on Real Propert} ' , Burton ' s Suits in Equ t3 Bispham on Equity, Clark ' s Criminal Law, Taylor on Corporations, Econo- mics and Politics, in the Senior ear. The methods of instruction are by recitation, lecture and case study, with frequent quizzes and reviews in the different studies of the course. The great aim is to impart both a theoreti- cal and ]iractical knowledge of the law, and to fit the student for practice. Much use is made of the blackboard in drawing negotiable instruments, contracts, wills, leases, deeds, mortgages and other important documents, and in illustrating the principles of law involved in the lessons. Already the University Court lias been organized. It is made the forum for the dis- cussion of questions of pleading and practice, and the means of familiarizing the student with the routine of court work. Its judge, sheriff, clerk, and law officers are required to prepare their records with legal accurac}-. The court is so conducted as to furnish special facilities for the study of practice in all its branches, including the preparation of briefs, pleadings and the drawing of all sorts of legal papers. Hard daily study of torts, contracts, etc., on the part of the Central University law students is preparing them for a future of usefulness in their profession. The progress of this department during the three years of its existence is (.piite gratifving, and it is with a feeling of pride that the friends of the University notice the .splendid work that has been done. 40 p 55 Z s - o w J J S D u The S P Lees Collegiate Institute About fifteen years ago the Jackson Academy was established. In 1S91 the scliool prop- erty was purchased for Central University by the Chancellor. The school then bore the name of Jackson Collegiate Institute. In 1S97 the generosity of Mrs. S. P. Lees, Mrs. X. F. McCormick, and other friends rendered possible great improvements in the buildings and and equipment. The name was then changed to The S. P. Lees Collegiate Institute. During the present session a great step forward has been taken. Mrs. McCormick has fully equipped two new departments, those of Manual Training and Domestic Science, and has established an electric light plant primarily for lighting the Manual Training shop on winter evenings, and for lighting the Institute building, and also the girls ' dormitory. INIrs. McCor- mick has also provided for an entirely new branch of this great work, in erecting in the mining district of Jackson a neat and commodious chapel for religious purposes, and also for a free day school for those who do not attend the public school or the Institute. This building is known as the McCormick Chapel, and the school as the McCormick Free School. The Institute has never had a more prosperous session. The total enrollment lacks a few of being 350, of which about 230 belong to the Institute proper, the rest to AlcCormick Chapel School. The enrollment of the Institute is 30 more than last session, and the attendance has kept up remarkably. There has not been one serious breach of discipline. Add to all this that nearh- everv one of the eighty teachers of the county have been educated at the Institute, and it can be .seen that the institution is the most potent factor in the educational progress of this part of the state. 42 v FACULTY OF THE S.

When the intention to open this school was made known, the people of Elizabethtown put forth their earnest efforts to get it in their midst, and offered, as inducements to secure it, a favorable location, a peo]ile interested in education, and a liberal donation for the erection of a suitable building. Their offer was accepted, and the school was opened even before the build- ing was erected. B - the l)ei4inning ol the second ear the new quarters were readv to be occupied. It is a brick structure, admirably arranged and lighted, and heated by a hot air furnace. It has a beautiiul campus of .seven acres, on which there is ample room for base-ball, foot-ball or other outdoor sports. Its first President was Rev. W. K. Patterson, who Vi ' as a successful and popular teacher, but he resigned his position at the end of one ear on account of its conflicting with his minis- terial duties. Central University has kept good men at the head of the school, and it has always been supplied with an able corps of instructors, who are graduates of some of our best colleges. The demand for such a department being so great, a normal course has been added to the curriculum, which offers the best training to those who wish to become teachers. The regular courses of study are intended to fit the student for entrance into college, and are arranged to lead to degrees in higher institutions. Its graduates are prepared to enter the Junior vear at Central University or other first-class colleges. The Hardin Collegiate In.stitute has steadily grown in size until it has .several times the number of students with which it started out. These are not only from Hardin Connty, but the school has already made such a reputation as to draw students from a distance to take advantage cjf the excellent educational facilities which it offers. 44 HARDIN COLLEGIATE INSTIJUTE, ELIZABETHTOWN, KY.

X. and Southern Raihoads, the two principal trunk lines of the South. Though founded only about ten years ago, it has developed into a city of 5.000 inhabitants. Its beauty of location, healthfulness of climate, together with the enterprise of its people, rendered it au inviting field for the establishment of a High School. The citizens generously donated to the Univer- sity a very handsome and commodious building in the most attractive part of the city. The selection of Middlesboro by the Board of Curators as a suitable place for the location of this school, authorized by the charter, was at the time deemed fortunate, and its phenomenal success during the four years of its existence fully attests the wisdom of their choice. In the Commercial Department the aim is to make the instruction practical and efficient for those who.se purpose it is to enter bu- iness life. To the student who wishes to take a Col- lege or University course, the Academic Department proposes to give a thorough preparation. The Military is an interesting feature, and quite a valuable supplement to the other depart- ments. The friends and supporters of the school are highly gratified at the noble work lieing done, and the great success the institution has met with since its establishment. In opening this institution to the people of Middlesboro and Sotitheastern Kentucky, the Curators offer the best possible location, climate, fare, and pln ' sical, mental and moral instruction. The Departments of Study include Ancient and Modern Languages, Literature, Mathematics, Natural Sciences, Historv, Connnercial and Militarv Science and Music. 46 MIDDLESBORO UNIVERSITY SCHOOL. L. H.

Arms I sing, and the hero, wiio first exiled by fate, came from the coasts of Troy to Ital - and the Lavinian shore. Thus read the first lines of the first book of Harper ' s Literal Translation of the .-Eneid. A better was never written — we mean the translation — and we recommend it to the rising generaticjn as the most satisfactor ' work ot the kind that we have examined. Do not think that yon are about ti3 read a learned paper on Latin Literature — that is not our ]nupose. To paraphrase the words of the poet, Seniors we sing, and of the Freshmen, who, impelled b - a desire to know more of worldly- wisdom, or animated by the determina- tion to plow less corn and hoe fewer potato patches, after being tossed upon the heaving billows of the R., N., L and B. Railroad, and choked b ' the sulphurous fumes of its engine smoke (by the way, you, wlm ha e seen an R., N. , L and 13 engine smoke ought to be disgusted, and eternally abhor that pernicious habit), or having spent eleven hours in enjo_ ing the splendid connections of the K. C Road, landed at last on the cool and shady streets of Richmond. As the first act of Bneas and his companions, after coming ashore, was to regale the physical man, so these Freshmen immediateh repaired to the dormitory dining hall. We notice that man still possesses the traits and appetites which characterized him in the days of the .Lneid. Away from his native towers of Tro}-, new scenes, new experiences confront the hero on every hand. Not less vuifamiliar is the life of each Freshman, not less disheartening his most trivial experiences. A stranger in a land of strangers ; he tries to look cheerful : he feels very sick ; he seeks some secluded spot ; rivers of waters run down his eyes ; he is homesick : his kingdom for a glance of home ; he is going home ; h e pens a parchment, which reads like this: Dear Ma : I am very sick. My trunk is packed. Tell pa to meet me at the next train. Affectionately, John. The return mail conve3-s this message: vSon, if you come home you will wish that you hadn ' t. Pa. Like a beast at ba) ' he sits down on his haunches, licks his chops, and tries to take a more sensible view of himself and circumstances. From this time dates the beginning of an evolu- tion which shortway transforms this class from a condition of infinite humility to a state in which they think themselves created but a little lower than the Seniors, and proceed to so con- duct themselves, much to the amusement of the Sophs, the edification of the Juniors and the disgust of the Seniors. Of course they jierpelrated the- usual practical j .)kes with the cannon, all of which turned upon themselves ; but l)e it said to their credit that they were never induced to run eleven miles, to scatter their raiment over the campus, to run into trees, and to startle the town in the dead of night with such yells as, Brough I Brough ! Open up quick, Jim Feeny is after me ! Our whole career has been a conflict and a strife. From the day when we first skirm- ished with General Crooks and Algebra till we joined battle with the Commander-in-Chief and Intellectual Science, our noble band has never ceased the conflict. At first unskilled in the manifold modes of warfare, we suffered many defeats and lost many valorous soldiers, and at times even went so far as to contemplate surrender. But, as Peter the Great said of the Prussians, By defeating me they are teaching me how to con- quer them, so each defeat found us better skilled and disciplined for the next fray. It was upon the plains of Greece and before the gates of Rome that we suffered most severeh ' . In the long forced marches which we were compelled to make, our need of cavalry was sorely felt. Receiving at this time a circular from an establishment, Arthur, Hinds Co., by name (Hinds, Noble Co., it has since become), in which they offered to sell us, at extremely reasonable prices, any number of ponies, we conceived the happy idea of organizing a company of rough riders. This being done, the longest marches were accomplished with ease, and the steepest declivities surmounted without difficult} ' , till soon the Ciceronian-Demos- thenian hosts were literally translated from the face of the earth, and Prof. Paxton wonders to this day how it was done. About this time it was that the Class of ' 99 had the audacil_ ' to flaunt their flag from the college flag-pole. But they soon repented of their hasty action, for the Seniors (Class of ' 98), feeling deeply the insult, proceeded to register a protest, which seemed likely to leave forever its impression upon both the bodies and minds of the Juniors. At this juncture, touched b - the piteous appeals of the Jnniors and the inexorableness of the vSeniors, we look a hand, and rescued from total extermination that unhappy class. Bret Harte says it is a distinctive characteristic of time that it moves on, and as it moved we ceased to be Sophomores and became Jnniors. Some erne has said that he who knows, and knows not he knows, he is a Junior — honor him. ' ' Now it was that we made the acquaintance of Dr. Barbour, whose offer to lead us up against Jerusalem, that we might bear from thence as boot} ' a knowledge of its history, geography, etc., we accepted. Our unanimous decision upon returning was that our next trip would be to the Sahara Desert, where the atmosphere is not so dr} ' . During this trip we learned that BARA means to create out of nothing, and HASAH, to manufacture out of something, or vice versa, as the occasion might demand. The Doctor proved an enthusiastic leader and a strict disciplinarian. Tardiness at roll-call always received its just reward, and absence from class was an original sin, visited unto the third or fourth generation. Our Junior year completed, we stepped forth clothed in the mantle of Senior magnanimity, and bearing upon our shoulders the newly-acquired burden of Senior dignity. Whether or not we have demeaned ourselves as becometh Seniors let history attest. Under the leadership of such men as W. J. Steinert and D. Sanderson we have surmounted every obstacle. We have overcome every difficulty. We have even closed the mouths and stopped the braggadocio of that most conceited and impertinent crowd of braggarts, the Jimiors. We have placed the banner of 1900 upon the college flag-pole, and have kept it there, laughing to scorn the savage whoops and effeminate efforts of the Juniors, as they, aided by their arch gang of allies, the Freshmen, attempted to take it down. It is a fact of much satisfaction to the Seniors, and of more humiliation to the Juniors, that the flag of 1900 is the only one ever put up and taken down by the class to which it belonged. The man} ' other events of interest must be omitted through lack of time and space ; but with the Class of 1900 history-making has just begun. Before this historx- has met your eye the Class of 1900 will have become alunnii. The stor} ' has it that the departing Kneas left a girl behind him ; so the Class of igoo, returning to their homes, leave beautiful maidens with tear-dimmed ej ' es, or at least that is the wav some of us like to think of them.

As the glorious sun of the dying century is slowly sinking below the horizon, and the faint streaks of a new era blush along the sky, the writer niodesth ' dips his pen to recount the noble achievements and depict the stately character of a band upon whose escutcheon there is no blot, and in whose wake there follow no signs of defeat. To relate all that has befallen us during our glowing existence since first we entered our Alma Mater would be utterly impossible, and accordingly the purpose of this humble History will be to represent only a few of the grand deeds and paint but an imperfect picture, as language allows, of this imposing array of Juniors. As all class-historians have done, I, too, shall begin at the time when first we entered the drama of college life. While yet we went tinder that much-abused title of Freshmen. we demonstrated to the Faculty that we were students, and not merely pupils. Of course we were a little inclined, owing to the superfluous store of energy, to play pranks on the Pro- fessors, but then our chief end was to study — and right here I would enjoin upon the Fresh ' ' class of to-da}- to follow our example, and walk in our footsteps to fame eternal and glorj- renowned. With the motto ever before us — Work, then play — we stepped from Freshmen to Sopho- mores, and then began to display our real worth to the upper classes ; but we must hasten to the most interesting part of this History. As Juniors we number twenty-five, including three of the brightest young ladies Old Kentucky can produce, and whose beauty can not be exceeded by the fairest maidens of the Sunny South. As orators we seem to stand supreme, for we took both first and second place in the representativeship to the Intercollegiate Oratorical Contest. There are others besides these two winners who will some day be familiar figures upon the rostrum. In athletics, too, we have never been defeated : besides, we furnished the larger part of the mighty foot-ball and base-ball teams of ' 99-1900. Of the nine commissioned officers of the Military Department we have produced six, and the Physical Director of the I ' niversity is also proud to say that he is a member of the Royal Junior Gang. Society, that great motor power in college life, draws its largest and most brilliant element from the 01 class: and in every sphere we find that our boys are the lions of thedav. 55 It is needless to say that a more friendly and congenial class could not anywhere be found, ever was or will be again at Central University: and we can all join in quoting that beautiful verse : Lend a hand to one another. In the (iaily toils of Hfe, When we meet a weaker brother Let us help him in his strife. ' ' This manly principle of ours was strongly manifested in the recent flag-rushes. When the Sophomores raised their flag over the college building it was immediately, upon discovery, torn down and burned. But hardly had the noise and din of battle died away before the Seniors, aided by the Sophs, by stealth and at midnight, while the Junior braves were locked in arms of slumber, hoisted their banner. When the rosy-fingered Goddess of Dawn drove before her the lazy darkness, and Day interrupted the sleepers ' dreams, the Juniors, becoming indignant, made a fearful onslaught upon them, assisted by the mighty forces of the Fresh- men. Again and again did we hurl otir tremendous strength against the well-nigh impreg- nable entrenchments of the Seniors, who als(j fought valiantly from the other side of the fortifi- cations. The battle raged on and on, the scene of conflict became one of carnage, and had not the guiding hand of Fate, in the form of Chancellor Blanton, interfered, we would have fought to the death. But, as it was, the battle came to an abrupt end by reason of the appear- ance of the Doctor at the head of a respectable number of policemen, and after considerable time of parleying peace was once more declared between all parties concerned. A great deal more could be said concerning this most illustrious company of young Americans, but time and space will not permit a further extension of this sketch. Would that I could take each one individually and accord to him the honor and praise due his worthy name, but I fear that the dawn of the twentieth century would in that case still find me in the midst of my eulogies. May the paths of their lives be strewn with flowers of success, and may their temples be finally bound with chaplets of glory and fame. 56 SOPHOWOIi GLASS. Motto — Nulla vestigia retrorsum.

At this stage, in the intellectual expansion of the Class of ' 02, it becomes necessar} ' to historify some of her deeds, which are worthy of immortalization. Slie has passed through the valley of the shadow of the Freshman. vShe is crowned with many honors, and feels her soul throbbing witli --ublime aspira tion for that dav, soon to come, when the title of Junior will be hers. The Sophomore year is proverbially the period in which that element of the human soul, known as jollity, reaches its zenith, and the student becomes filled with animal vigor and gidd ' with joy. The Sophs have made few nights hideous, for they have to some extent abandoned that pernicious form of amusement, that is, such as removing gates, or stealing Gum dummies from Joe. The abandonment of such customs is perhaps due to a spirit of philanthropy. The class has, however, had other sources of amusement. Here I will narrate the story of the great Soph flag-rush. ' ' It was on the cold windy night of March 29th that seven Sophs, after the members of all the other classes had gone to their beds to sleep in peace, crept from their rooms, and after four or five hours ' of hard work, succeeded in placing the flag of ' 02 on the top of the main University building. Here the Historian will remark that had it not been for the courage and phxsical endurance of these seven men success would have been impossible. Next morning the Freshies were the first to see ' 02 waving over the Universit ' building. They at once began to l)ark like a pack of hounds after a deer. At eight o ' clock the fight was on. The Seniors and Juniors became insulted and joined the Freshies. They rocked us from every side ; they charged on us like demons. They did everything in their power to annihilate us. Like tigers the brave vSophs fought them, until they saw that they were outnumbered to such an extent that they must come down with failure written on their brave fiices. Yes, we failed on this occasion, but we were magnificent in defeat. Thu Sjiartans failed at Thermop -l;T;, Napoleon at Waterloo, Pickett at Cemetery Ridge, ami ' nr in the rush with ' 00, ' 01 and ' 03. Oh. how it makes a Soph ' s heart leap with joy to hear it said : The .Sophomores are the noblest of them all. ' ' While we are proud of the fact that we are Sophomores and Sojihisters, and a few other important thin.gs, we wish it understood that we are not sordid, but, em the contrary, we have placid natures, sweet dispositions, and are ex ' er ready to clniiinati- tvW from the coutmunit ' in which we dwell. As a ]iroof that we wish to do right at all times, we met 5S after the flag-rush and decided unanimously that on account of the damage done the building it was best to have no more flags raised. We informed the Facult ' of our action. They at once agreed with u s, and announced to the other classes the decision which they and the Sophs had made. The decision was, Flag-rushes must cease, or the process of elimination will take place immediately. The reader can imagine the consequence of such a decree. Thus far I have given a sketch of the class as a whole, but now I shall present to you some of our individual wonders. Wooly is our ladies ' man, who frequents the Hill ; Howell, our Lieutenant, of whom we are proud: Bates, our gymnast, who ranks among the best; Kiser, Clark and Minton, our musicians; Norman, our base-ballist. Our orators and essayists are many. We have leading men in each department, not even excluding the philo- sophical, for under this head comes McDonald, who burns the midnight oil and feasts his mind on laws of nature. To elaborate a full individual history of this noble bod} ' of illustrious and far-famed men would require more space than is here allotted me. Now that ni} ' task is done, I lay down my pen, trusting that the next Historian who takes it up may be able to chronicle still greater deeds for the Class of ' 02. Onward, Class ' 02, and at all times let our motto, Nulla vestigia retrorsum, be our guid- ing: -Star ! 59 Motto -Non palnia sine labore. Colors— Molet and Canarv. FLO VER — Daisy.

Nature wore her loveliest smile. The clew drops sparkled and threw their slanting I)eanis abroad like so many fair gems glittering in the sunlight. The distant mountains and neighboring hills rested under a halo of glory. Amid scenes so harmonious with their spirits a noble band of ijoys entered the chapel of Central Universitj ' to attend to the utterances of the Chancellor and of that grim and awe-in- spiring body, the Faculty. Among the throng were those who had come from Prep, with the proud record of the greatest class in the history of that institution; those wlio had gathered from the highlands of the East, the lowlands of the West, and some who had journeyed from the Sunny South, that they might drink of the Pierian vSpring. The entrance examinations pa.ssed, the Class of ' 03 began that fight which must be won by all who would secure college educations. Never were prospects so bright, for within its ranks were athletes, orators and students. In this brief narration it is impossible to enumerate fully all the great achievements. We can merely say that plunging into the work with an enthusiasm that knew no bounds, and a zeal that knew no discouragement, the boys of ' 03 soon won their spurs. Conscious of the critical gaze of every one, the Freshmen, by their noble bearing and studious propensities, .soon gained the respect of the Faculty, who saw that thej ' were destined to outstrip in the race for knowledge all their predecessors. Soon after the beginning of the .se cond term the class was called together to elect officers. This meeting has since become famous for the variety of the canes displayed and the warmth of the conversation engaged in. In fact the compan}- was so congenial that several other meet- ings were held before officials were chosen. Even then some were not satisfied, and at a meet- ing of their own selected another set of officials. This was followed 1) ' a contest, which equaled in bitterness that of Goebel and Taylor. A compromise was, however, effected, and all animosity having been forgotten, the class is a luiit. In the recent Sophomore flag-rush, the Fre.shmeu, under General Hafner and Major Andres, w ith the assistance of a few Juniors soon scattered the Sophs and their flag to the winds. Thus have we ever marched onward, carrying on high the banner of 1903. A few more battles and we will stand safely upon the heights of Sophomore magnanimity, and with pleas- ure exclaim ; By devotion to duty we have nobly won a glorious victory. ' 61 S. J. SANDERSON, J.

These boys were received with much seeming cordiality by the older and more experienced Preps, but cold water is soon dashed upon all of their hopes of being the familiar friends of these intellectual giants, and the air soon resounds with the cries of 3 ' aps — who are being initiated into the mysteries of Prep. Yet in after j ' ears these same vaps will have the exquisite pleasure of initiating the newcomers into the mysterious customs of Prep. As to what a Prep is composed of has baffled philosophers for centuries He seems to be a mixture of everything under the sun and a tew things not under the sun, and he is aliove all a Prep. Tlie Prep ' ' does not always study, Init he is very fond of his Literary Socielx , and loves to have only one day for his Thanksgiving holiday, and so he has imbibed much more wisdom than the Freshman across the tennis court who did not visit the halls of learning on that day, but sat in his room and reflected upon the bygone glories of Thanksgiving din- ■ ners and the results of too much turke}- and pie. But in spite of all this the Prep is a very good character, as he sometimes obeys his teacher and never fails to wash his face at least once a week. One of the things in the Prep ' s composition not under the sun is his sense of honor, which, like his philosophy, is queer. He will lie, steal and cheat, but he does not use a pony. His enemies say it is because he cannot read it. Yet the Prep scorns the poor Freshman, who, borne down by his weight of zeros, finally seeks refuge from them in Prep. ' • Prep, ' as a body, is composed of ever - cla.ss of society ; the dude, the dunce, the loafer, and the inevitable bright boy. Yet with all the different classes Prep is a unit, as any town boy who has attacked a Prep ' will testify. The entire Senior class, with a few exceptions, hope to become Freshmen next year, when these exceptions, standing on the brink of the tennis court, with their eyes toward the college, will repeat this beautiful poem, somewhat parodied : Prep Faculty love us, . nd hold us so dear.

The Philalethean Union was organized in 1874, and its history since has been character- ized by activity in debating, declamatory and oratorical work. The results of its labors in preparing young men for practical duties in life are unsurpassed by any similar organization in the South, for it has given to Kentucky and other States some of the most potent factors in our country ' s progress. On its faded muster-rolls may be found the names of many use- ful private citizens ; the profoundest lawyers and the ablest judges that grace the bar or adorn the bench. To the medical profession it has given the most skillful physicians and surgeons ; it has contributed to the pulpit as consecrated ministers as ever blew the silverv trumpet of Gospel peace, while to the platform and the political arena it has sent forth as brilliant champions as ever clashed arms in forensic combat. But the Philalethean Union of the closing year has not rested on the glories of the past, but has made them a means of greater incentive in developing dormant powers, in converting the awkward, stammering young man into a graceful speaker. The year has been marked by a large increase in membership, by a vast improvement in Elocution, Composition and Debating, b} ' a more thorough knowledge in parliamentary law and methods, and by keep- ing abreast with modern thought in literature, science and politics. In the Inter Collegiate Declamatory Contest, in which five colleges took part, the repre- sentative, Mr. A. H. Rowell, of the Philalethean Union, was awarded the beautiful gold medal. And when the Oratorical Contest had ended, on the evening of February 22d, Phil- alethea was again honored, by Mr. B. S. VanMeter bearing off the palm of victory. Our members have much to which th ey can look back in future years with pleasant recollections, rejoicing that their lot was cast amid such agreeable and helpful surroundings. The Philaletheans have the kindest regards for their sister, the Epp. Union, whose good- natured rivalry has been the means of arousing us to higher endeavors and more faithful service. We recognize and appreciate their merits, and feel that we have been benefited by their existence. From our ranks will go this year young men who are tried and true, whose abilities have been tested in the fires of conflict and found to be genuine. They will add lustre to the already brilliant record of their society, and keep step with the most advanced and progressive thinkers of the future, and when success shall have crowned their efforts they will look back upon the time spent in the Philalethean Hall as the most gladsome and profitable period in their lives. Though our parting is mingled with sadness, let this be a token of friendship and good will through coming years, and let us all be imbued with the determination to Fail not for sorrow, falter not for sin, lUit onward and upward till the goal we win. B. C. GIBSON. Historia,!. 94 Epiphyllidian Union. As time unfolds itself no department of the University furnishes a period more replete with marvelous progress than does that of the literary ' societies. To give the reader a view of what has laeen achieved in the Epiphyllidian ITnion during the session of ' 99- ' oo in l)ringing light out of darkness, in transforming the dismal chaos of ignorant Freshmen, light headed Sophs, knowing Juniors, and all-wise Seniors into an august body of parliamentary Robertses and Reeds, in securing order from a bedlam of noisy, restless beings; in making declaimers from dullard lower classmen, and orators from unpromising upper classmen, and in the gaining of honor for the Union, is the purport of this history. The histor)- of a literar - work, especiallN ' when dependent for growth upon a Union of inexperienced men, must needs be one of patient perseverance and untiring effort. Of course the greatest labors are expected from the older members, and we are glad to say that they have fulfilled all expectations Those who were present at the last Chautauqua Oratorical Contest saw abundant proof that in both oratorical composition and graceful, forceful delivery the Epp. I ' nion is a leader; for in that contest her representative, Mr. R. H. Connor, defeated all contestants, and was awarded first prize, adding another great victory to C. U. ' s already long list. Mr. G. V. Hunter, the winner of the ' gS Inter-Collegiate Oratorical Contest, was also a member of the Epp. Union. The Epp. Union extends to the Philaletheau Union her hearty congratulations upon her representative Mr A. H. Rowell, who won the recent Inter-Collegiate Declamatory- Contest. There is no doubt but that the Epps. would have won on the night of February 22d had her first representative ' s speech not been considered, or even if her second speaker had suc- ceeded in getting the audience to see (object unknown). But with defeat comes strength and renewed determination, and with such weapons the adversary must fall in the next con- flict, and the honor of the Fresh. -Soph. Declamatory Contest redound to the honor of the Epiphyllidian Union. To the old members, the past year ' s work, its disappointments and its successes, will be a pleasant memory. All new students we would urge to join one of the literary societies, for the non-literary man is the mote in the eye, the ox in the ditch, and t he thorn in the flesh of college life. Then, ye tender Freshmen, ye forlorn Sophomores, list to the sage, and let 3 ' our prayer be the Epiphyllidian motto, Give me wisdom, the greatest gift of the gods.

A. ■o iteifc i The Young Men ' s Christian Association is one of the most important of all the college departments; being a valuable aid to the religious life of the institution. Our association has been founded about seventeen 3-ears. During these years the work has progressed ; new departments being added as their need was felt. We now have one of the most active college associations in the State. Under its direction a class in daih ' Bible stud}- is conducted. The purpose of this class is to induce a regular systematic study of the Bible ; to become better acquainted with it, and thereby to promote growth in grace. While only a small number of the association is engaged in this stud ' , we believe the interest will grow and the numbers increase. A prayer-meeting, also under direction of the association, is held in the dormitory everj ' night in the week, except Sunday. These two departments have proven a source of great benefit to the association. The President also appoints a Reception Committee, who at the opening of the school meet the trains, and assist the new boys in finding their boarding places and getting started in college. On the first Friday after college opens a reception is given to all the students After appropriate addresses by ministers of the town and Professors of the University, all partake of abundant refreshments, prepared by the good women of Richmond. These occasions tend to make the students acquainted, and are much enjoyed b} ' all. Our association now occupies two well equipped rooms ; one, its main room, where devo- tional services are held, and the other a well supplied reading room. We send delegates to the State Conventions and the summer conference at Asheville. These men return with increased zeal and new ideas for carrying on the work. From this source we have received much good. The primary aim of a Young Men ' s Christian Associa- tion is to bring men to Christ and to strengthen those already ' Christians. The Y. M. C. A. ought to commend itself to parents in that it seeks to have an influence of the best kind over their sons, who are separated from them. While our aims have been worthy and we have seen much to encourage us, yet we see much unattained, and considering our opportunities we have not accomplished near what we ought. Still we trust some seeds have been sown which are destined to bring forth fruit, an hundredfold to the glory of Him whom we serve and whose we are. S. R. C.

Nay, it cannot be. Seel It moves. It must be an army of butter- flies, or mayhap of tropical birds. What say you? A batallion? Surely ' tis Pharaoh ' s gorgeous host! No? Then it must lie that I dream. What? Only students drilling? vSurely they must not do anything but drill. Not so? Just twice a week? Why, ' tis remarkable. But who are these so gayh- clad? W ' lui is that so stern and stately, giving orders so pompously? The Major, say you? Forsooth, he is a soldier after Csesar ' s own heart. And who these also so gayly bedecked? Officers, say ' e ? Surely they cannot be the renowned Cajitains Pap and Rusty and their valiant Lieutenants! ' Tis even so? Well, may I depart unto my fathers ! My eyes have fulfilled their mission, and I shall now die joyfully. But tell me, thou C. U. encyclopedia, for what is this company organized? Is it for an escort to the Profs, or do they guard the pantry from those dainty epicures? Yet mayhap I be still mistaken. Is it then to keep order in class elections? But only the Freshman Class needed such restraint in my time- But tell me, is the rumor true that it is used to escort noted lecturers? But what is this ye say ? Organized to improve the students ' health ? Gives them a better carriage ? Oh, yes, I see ! Hinds and Noble are still the horses, I suppose. Oh ' Gi -es them a better appearance! I thought I was in my old Latin class. But what say the students to this drilling? The ' like it, do they? I am glad to hear it. But who are these that approach in red? The artillery? Indeed! There are two batteries I see. Poor Freshies ! I feel for them. With this valiant host against them, it must not take long to bring them to terms. But tell me something of this gallant Major. Ah ! A graduate. Was in our late war, did you say? Respected and loved by both Facult - and students, surely he is a man worth knowing. Forsooth, this Military Department is a good thing, and I shall watch with interest its future advancement. J. R. S. ii6 Central University Athletic Association, President CHARLES CHATHAM.

The unusual popularity of the game, and the great amount of interest taken in it, ha -e given rise to the most important of ail inter-collegiate leagues. Foot-ball is pre-eminentlj ' a young man ' s game. The systematic training, the self- restraint and self-denial which every successful player must practice are of incalculable value. As a schooling it stands pre-eminently superior to all other forms of athletic training, and he who takes part in foot ball is better prepared to do good class work and to encounter the buffets of after life. The qualifications of a player are brawn, pluck, perseverance, energy, self-restraint, precision of judgment and quickness of thought and action. Foot-ball has come to Central, and has come to stay. The Facult}- recognize its value, and lend their hearty support. The work of Central ' s teams has ever been her pride. Thej ' have lined up against the best elevens of the South, and have always done themselves credit. Indeed, the superior work of several of her teams is cherished with especial pride and pleasure. Whenever a student of some other institution is heard to biag of some team or player which they have put upon the field he is straightway buttou-holed and made to listen to the oft-repeated story of the teams of ' 94 and ' 98, and to the superhuman achievements of Gunlack and Lucas, of Terrill and Norman. This is the old, old storj ' , which to all C. U. men grows more wonder- fully sweet each time it is told. These elevens are mentioned, not because they are the only good teams which Central has put upon the gridiron, but because they are the teams which were never defeated, and which beat Centre. The team of ' 9.8 defeated Vanderbilt on her own grounds by a score of 12 o, and Centre College by the overwhelming score of 30-0. Central has put numerous other victorious teams upon the field, which were scarcely inferior to those just mentioned. The team of ' 98, despite the fact that it had some weak places, was a powerful one, and several of its individual players were acknowledged to be equal to any in the South. Anschutz at left tackle, and Brown at right guard failed to find their equal during the season. Although defeated on several occasions the team of ' 99 closed the year with a good round account at the foot of the victory column. Among the defeated teams were Washington and Lee, defeated at Louisville by a score of 12-2, and State College, at Lexington, in a hard fought battle, resulting in a score of 5-0. Of foot-ball prospects for next year, it is now too early to prophesy ; yet there can be little doubt that Central will uphold her old time record. 119 Foot Ball Team of 99, S.

Old Central has alvva3 ' s taken a great interest in her athletic teams ; especially is this true of base-ball. This interest has also been greatly increased since the organization in ' 97 of an Inter-Collegiate Base ball Association, which is composed of Centre College, Georgetown College, State College, Kentucky University and Central University. In ' 97 we were greatl} ' handicapped by having only one twirler to do all of the work, and consequently only secured third place. However in ' 98 we atoned for this, and won the pemiant, to the great luimiliation of Centre, our great rival. In ' 99 Central put out one of the finest college teams ever seen in the State, and conse- quently had a ' ' walkover, finishing first in the race, with an average of 800 per cent, having won four out of the five league games played. This year we were ver)- unfortunate in not being able to secure our old coach, Mr. Bert Cunningham, to whom so much of our past success is due. AltJiough we have no coach this season, we feel safe in saying that r90o ' s team will be the equal, if not the superior, of any team ever sent to the bat by C. U. Though as ninn_ ' men maj ' not have turned out this year at practice as last, yet as a whole they have been far better material ; so that what we may have lacked in quantity has been more than made up in quality. All of the coaching this year has devolved upon Captain Chatham and our pitcher, Mr. Dickinson. We can not say too much in praise of the way they have gotten the men out to practice and kept up the interest, not only among the mend3ers of the team, but also throughout the whole University. Many of last year ' s men are again with us, but among them we also see many new faces, who are on the diamond for the first time. Those to be noted among the old men are Ans chutz, C U. ' s invincible foot-ball player and crack center-fielder; Chatham, who won renown last year at .second base, and Thompson, who made some beautiful grand-stand plays in left field. Those among the new men who are showing up best are. Toy at short- stop, and McCIanahan, the crack first baseman. J. R. S. Base-Ball Team of 1900. T. C. DKDMAX Manager C. 15.

G. 1!. 131 41 The College Poet Laureate, Among the man - freaks of college life that we run upon is that especialh- freakish indi- vidual whose moods are shrouded in deepest mystery to his fellow-students. I am speak- ing of the college poet. He is one who has early formed an attachment for the muse, and has at some time in his tender youth evinced remarkable poetic talents — at least his fond parents thought so. I have in mind a certain youth. To many practical-minded, common-sense peo- ple he was merely an ordinary youth, with sallow complexion and a tendency toward dreami- ness, which some unkindly called lassitude. But practical-mindedness and common-sen.se are two things usually inconipatil)le and abhorrent to youthful genius, so we will pass over the harsh judgments of the inappreciative and try to look at the poetical effusions of our youthful friend in the same rosy-tinted light that his fond parents did. Our young poet, like all true poets, loved to converse in Nature ' s language, and he often burst into song upon the slightest provocation, so to speak, and over the most trivial circum- stances. The humble inhabitants of the soil, the lowlj- creatures of earth, appealed to his genial nature, as an evidence of which we give the following ode to a Toad Frog, composed at an earh- age : ' •Hi! Mr. Toad Frog- How do you feel ? How ' s yer health, ole paid ? Look mighty coinfert ' ble sellin ' under thai big clod. Look like er lord uv all creation, Takin ' in fac ' s by yer person ' l observation. Specs yer could tell us when its gwine Ter rain and how the craps will he, (Jedgiug from the prominence of yer eyes yer ougliter be able ter see.) Guess yer come to very sage conclusions ' Bouttlie follies and foibles uv men. ( Kinder laughin ' ter j-erself like knowin ' tliey ' s all vain delusions.) Well, enjoy yer own philosophy and keep yerself cool. In yer own select society, fer I guess v-er ain ' t no fool. (It is t(.) be hoped that the reader will make due allowance for the youth of the author and will have the same respect for his young faculties that he had for the load frog ' s. Otir poet couhl also appreciate Nature in her grander aspects, as when she arravs herself in the majestic robes of a summer sunset. We give the following lines as ati itidication of his aesthetic nature : f The glorious god of d.ay is sinking slowly to rest. In the purple glow of the clover-.scented West. The nocturnal stillness grows more profound, .■ nd earth-refreshing dews fall softly to the ground. ' Tis a delightful season of rest from care Of quiet repose and solace rare. As our (iung poet a]iproachcd to nubile years he, of course, began lo form ideals and to pictttre in his mind the perfect creattire of the gentler sex who should consummate the haj-ipi- ness of his life. ISefore this embodimen ' i of all ieminiiie charms had cast the sutishine of her presence upon his pathway we hear him singing to a phanloni of his own creation in the fol- lowing lines, and plunging himself unto unwonted grief on account of the evanescent character of his vision — Thy dear dream-face returns lo me With all its wnnted tenderness — My spirit yearns to be free, And mingle soul to soul with thee. I see those lovelv, witching eyes, That haunt me still. M) ' soul in rapture seems to rise, And shunning lowly things to seek the skies — Glides into my dreaming thy graceful form. White hands beckon me, I long to follow, but the vision ' s gone. Vanishing as shadow5 ' mists Ijefore the morn — And life ' s bright dream has vanished, too. My hopes, mj- life — mv all with you ! Our poet did not pretend to classify his productions, but sang in the free, unfettered strain of a native songster. As to whether the above be ode, epode, sonnet, or what not, we care very little, so long as the writer himself did not bother about it. In his moment of sober reflection the poet would sometimes thus discourse upon the theme engrossing his thoughts : From beautv ' s blaze And grandeur ' s haughty air Turn to seek love ' s gentle rays In simple grace and innocence fair. The vision, the dream of our college youth, is finally realized to his satisfaction in one who to him appears a paragon of human loveliness, and with awe-inspired admiration we hear him exclaim — O maiden of the auburn hair. Glorious eyes and mouth so rare ; With go Uless ' form of loveliest grace ! Blush, Grecian art, at her matchless face ! Then he breathes forth the secret of his heart in the following style : Best and fairest. Best and fairest. Fond and dearest. Fond and dearest, Maid of the deep brown ej ' es, Spea ' K with those healing eyes. Behold my heart. Soothe my heart. Pierced with a dart. Relieve the smart And my bosom rent with sighs. And open to me paradise. Best and fairest, Fond and dearest. Thou canst not wound with such eyes, For fair the} ' are, From malice far And every cruel device. Gentle reader, you and I have rudely -trespassed upon those things hitherto shielded from the public gaze. Like Darius Green ' s uninvited audience, we have surreptitiously watched the first unsteady flight of an incipient youth upon the wings of poesv. Let us again draw the curtain upon his frailties. Although in his own generation he may live a youth to fortune and to fame unknown, after the lapse of j ' ears some may look upon his sleeping jilace among the silent host and sa -: Perhaps in this neglected spot is laid some heart once pregnant with celestial fire, hands that the rod of empire might have swayed or waked to ecstasy the living lyre. • S. M. V. B. € With a Purpose, By John E. Abbott. Read on Class Day before the Class of ' ?. J jt As iidown the dim vista of ages we gaze At the lives of the good and the great. Our thoughts can but wander in fanciful va s, And visions too strange to relate Come flocking like doves o ' er the ocean of years To tell us their story of smiles and of tears, To tell us of lives that young manhood reveres, — Tlie lives that were lived with a purpose. I would speak not of lives that were only for self. For their story is better forgot. Who toiled for vain glory, for power and for pelf, They o nce were, but now they are not ; And the only sweet echoes e ' er borne to our shore, By breezes that whisper life ' s mystical lore, Are the echoes of music that sound evermore — From the lives that were lived with a purpose. On the liattlefield, bearing the standard of right, A soldier boy fought raid the shot and the shell ; Tho ' he longed to see victory, in the midst of the fight The Messenger came and the soldier boy fell. Our blessings upon hira shall fall as in showers. We ' ll wreathe his bright memory with garlands of flowers. For he gave up his life for this country of ours, — He died, but he died for a jiurpose. In the Senate Hall yonder the true statesman stands, With a pure and unsullied name. With principle true and strong ready hands He puts every tempter to shame. ' Tis a virtue refreshing where seldom ' tis found. Though wealth may entice and though demagogues frown. He hews to the mark and wins lair renown,— The renown of a man with a purpose. FVen the lives of nations, like the lives of men. ilust ennoble or else be in vain ; And we dream of the time when earth shall again Be Kden. and virtue shall reign. Ah, Columbia fair, thy mission, we see. Is to unfurl tliy flag and make people free. That seeing thy beauty all nations may be — Nations that live with a purpose. Yes, as oft in the twilight we sit and dream Of the stories that past ages tell. Their voices grow silent and to us there seem. Like the notes of sweet music, to swell The voices of promise of future days. When our hearts shall pour out their loftiest lays, And we reap the reward that nature ' s law pays To him who toils with a purpose. But the glory is not all to those who attain To the things that they hoped to achieve, For castles must fall and there only remain The ruins that fortune may leave. Though the life be cut short when it should have been strong. And hushed on the first note its sweet, hopel ' nl song, Yet glory in heaven to him shall belong, Who tried to accomplish a purpose. Some time, in the evening of life we shall gaze Not at other lives, but at our own. And the breezes shall whisper of young manhood ' s days. Of moments and hours that have flown ; And tho ' evening shall fade into death ' s solemn night. Our rest shall be sweet and our hope shall be bright. And our spirits shall enter the realms of delight — If our lives have been lived with a purpose. i, 4 The Eye of Death. Prof. Henry Morton was fast failing in health. His constitntion, never strong, broke down almost completely in his constant grief over the sudden death of his dearest friend and fellow-professor, Dr. S. Gerard Guild. The year before Dr. Guild had been sent to the East Indies to make geological researches among the volcanoes of Borneo, by the Guild Scientific School of H University. After leaving the coast with two white men and a dozen natives, no news was received of him for several mouths. But no alarm was felt, as the Doctor had intended to remain in the interior of the island for an indefinite period. Early one morning the President of H University was hurrietl from his bed by a telegraph messenger. Several moments later the President, half dressed, emerged from his house and hastened rapidly toward Prof Morton ' s residence. The cablegram was from the American Consul at Singapore, and read : Dr. Guild reported mysteriously killed in Borneo. Full advices b ' mail. Then came a weary wait of weeks. The shock confined Prof. Morton to his bed for several days. He had aged ten 3-ears when he again entered his class-room. At length the letter came from Singapore. After detailing the incidents of the start from the coast and the unimportant events of the ne.xt two mouths, it concluded as follows; One morning, as Dr. Guild was starting out on an expedition to the northward, the chief of the native guides declared that neither he nor his companions would move another step toward the Evil Mountains. ' As these mountains appeared to offer an excellent field for operations. Dr. Guild was naturally incensed. But neither threats nor bribes would move the natives. An inquiry into the cause of their stubbornness led to the disclosure of the fact that the ' Eye of Death ' was situated among these mountains. Dr. Guild had heard of the ' Eye of Death ' before leaving the coast, and he at once became all absorbed with the desire of observing this phenomenon. At the instance of repeated threats and bribes one of the natives offered to guide him to the end of a defile, from whence he could reach the sought-for spot unaided. After going some miles higher up into the mountains, the guide stopped, and, point- ing to a huge boulder jutting out at the end of a defile to the left, said solemidy : ' From that rock can the Eye of Death be seen ; but they that survive the fatal sight are none. Many foolish men, headstrong against fate, have leaped up it, the blood of life bounding in their veins, all — all, ' his voice sank into a weird whisper, ' have pitched headlong down — dead ! ' Paying no heed to the words of the guide, the Doctor hastened down the ravine. After carefully examining the boulder to see that there were no hidden pitfalls, he clambered up its jagged edges. Steadving himself on reaching the top, he turned eagerlv to view the ' Eye of Death. ' As the eternal God is our judge, however impossible and supernatural the events here narrated may seem, they are as true as Truth itself. A flash of exquisite anguish convulsed the Doctor ' s features, his straw tourist ' s hat burst into flame, his gray hair and beard crackled as though in a white-hot furnace, his clothing caught fire, and he pitched headlong down at our feet, a blackened and smoldering corpse. It 135 all had taken but an instant. P ' or another moment, horror-stricken at this astonnding and terrific verification of the guide ' s words, we stood sijell-bound. Then, in a semi torpor, we buried him under a pile of loose stones and hastily left the accursed place. After innumerable hardships we reached the coast, and eventually Singapore. [Signed.] Ji.iHX Thomas, Sa: iuel Gray. ' ' H University at once organized an expedition to go in search of Dr. Guild ' s body, and to ascertain the true mode of his death. Prof. Morton v -as at the head of this expedition. His appointment had been strenuously oppo.sed on account of his failing liealth, but he over- came all opposition. One month after the news of the tragedy was received he sailed for Singapore with a party of twenty-five men. There he found the two men — John Thomas and Samuel Graw In company witli these he arrived at the small coast village, from whence Dr. Guild had set out. Fortunately the native who had guided Dr. Guild was found there. After a week ' s traveling the party reached the fateful ravine. Prof Morton ' s breast heaved with emotion on his beholding that dreadful tomb of his friend — now as then so deceitful in its innocent appearance. Dr. Guild ' s body was disinterred. Then Prof Morton set about to clear up the mystery of his death. After repeated experiments he found that there was an in ' isible sphere some two feet in diameter, hanging about five feet above the boulder, heated to a temperature higher than that of molten lead. A piece of iron in it for several moments on a steel wire glowed at a white heat. Apiece of wood merely thrown tlimugh the circle of heat came out charred. Glass became as water in its Revy breath, charcoal vaporized. But outside this magic sphere the temperature was as it ordinarily is in that climate. Prof Morton now climbed cautiously up the boulder. Lying flat on his stomach he made a careful observation in all directions. Although only four feet above his body there was a temperature greater than 4000° C, he experienced no inconvenience. Two hundred feet to the front he saw a glaring fiery semi- circle of heaving and tumultous flame ; ten feet to the rear was a bowl shaped cavity — a perfect semi-sphere — glowing and simmering in the heat of the Eye, diametrically in front. In- stantly the solution of the mystery of the Eye of Death burst upon Prof Morton. Slipping down from this veritable hell of death he had his men take up the body and start back for the coast. One cold, clear day during the following fall Prof Morton appeared on the H University campus, followed by his class in Ph ' sics. In either hand he carried a tripod, sur- mounted by a concave semi-sphere of burnished brass. When he had set these up, facing each other, at a distance of fifty feet, his two assistants brought forward a slice of beefsteak and a brazier of charcoal. Prof Morton hung the lighted brazier in the focus of one of the brass bowls. The class was now studying the reflection and refraction of light and heat. The gist of the Professor ' s talk this morning was that if heat lie applied at the focus of a concave object, it is reflected or refracted from each jiart of that object to a corresponding symmetrical part of a similar ojiposite concave olijeet — the distance of the concave surfaces dejiending upon and proportional to their angles — and from thence to the focus of the second object, with a diminution of heat. Prof Morton motioned his assistant to put the beefsteak in the focus of the second bowl. As the steak began to simmer. Prof Morton ' s mind reverted to that far away experiment of nature, and the hallucination grew upon him that it was Dr. Guild whom now he saw to writhe in agony in that awful furnace of heat. With an inarticulate cry of expostulation, he .stag- gered and fell forward— dead ! The doctors averred that it was heart disease, lint the remorse- less Eye of Death ' ' registered another victim on its endless roll ol death. J. K. A. A Freshman ' s Letter to his Girl at a Boarding School. Richmond, Ky., Oct. 20, 1S99. My Dear Mary: I hope you are not offended That I have dela3 ' ed writing so long, For I declare I reallj- intended Fnlh ' two weeks ago To write and let you know How I like this school (Now please don ' t think this a stor ) I like everything ver ' well as a rule ; And especiall) ' do I like the dormitory. I know you will laugh And think I ' m just in fun : But I can ' t tell half Though I can prove by anyone What I ' m about to tell you. I know you girls are cunning and sly But I believe we boys can excel you Every time, and not half try. We have here every now anil then What we call a rough house ; But this happens only when The boys get tired of study and want some noise. It ' s all over in a minute. And everything is as quiet as a mouse Then of course no one knows who ' s in it; But if we carrj ' this too far The matron .sends for Dr. Blanton, (He ' s the Chancellor). Now perhaps you won ' t think it ' s true When I say they ' ve even tried To duck him a time or two, But the culprits — they always hide, Because they ' afraid of him, he ' s so dignified. This letter is growing long, I ' ll grant, But it will not do to stop, I ' ll declare, In fact I cannot till I speak Of our dormitory fare. It consists largely of the staff of life, (Bread, I mean,) and water, And steak that you can ' t cut With a butcher ' s knife. And toast that looks like a wet ink-blotter ; And the sausage we have three times a day Is so raw, gristh ' and tough That what it is like is hard to say. But a ball of rubber is mild enough. Even if it does have a few draw-backs. Nevertheless this is a good old place. And in other ways makes up what it lacks In this one particular case. 137 I feel sorry for you dear little creatures, Who are made to retire at ten, And are marched around by teachers ; But girls, you know, require more watching than men. We can sit up here as late as we please, And go and come when we choose, But I don ' t claim this life agrees With us ; for some this liberty abuse. You speak of your room-mate, she ' s all right, I am sure — you both seem good in pranks and schemes ; I ' d like to see 3 ' ou engaged in a pillow fight; From ) ' Our letter it ' s your sole employment, it seems, I fear your books suffer as much as you, But quite in another respect — Yon from over-exercise — isn ' t it true? — While they as much from neglect. Don ' t get mad — I am only in jest — I know you are an excellent student ; Now, don ' t study too hard, I gravely protest. And injure your health, but be wise and prudent. Well, 1 could tell much more, And some time soon I will. How the higher classmen fooled the lower And got them to take the cannon on the Hill. But I nuist explain about the Hill, Ofcour.se you don ' t know what I mean ; It is a female school, and I declare Some of the cutest girls g(.) there That I have ever seen. They seem to us all the sweeter Because we aren ' t allowed to call : I ' ve seen one, and am crazy to meet her, Her name, I think, is Jennie Hall. Now I will close, and if you will write soon ; Next time I will try to do better. And not tire you again ,-, With such a long, uninteresting letter. Hoping this will at least provoke a reply, I ' ll tax you no longer, but say good-bye. I am, and hope ever to be. Most sincerelv voiir friend, A B. C. ©Mi 3 The Fate of a Campus Violet ' Were man but constant, tic ■lucre perfect. - T-wo Genttemen of Verona, V, 4, What a story this violet could tell, if onl}- Harrj- should see it ! said beautiful Alice Gray, as she sat in frout of her dressing-table, an open watch in her hand, wherein lay a pressed violet. Yes, it would tell of smiles, tears and sighs. It would reveal to him how true my heart has been all these years; indeed, ever since those halcyon days when he romped with me upon the campus, and we gathered violets that grew and blossomed near the fence. He was then my hero, and I worshijied him, notwithstanding he used my pets so roughly and made me shed bitter tears by Iianging my dolls to the lower limbs of the maples. Perhaps he never thinks of me now, nor imagines that I still treasure tlie little vit)let he ga e me, asking that I would always keep it for old time ' s sake, or that I remember the sweet sentiments he softly whispered to me. Alas ! Little flower, he will never come to ask your secrets, for it has been two years since I saw him, one since I heard from him : et I cherish you still. II he thinks of me at all, I wonder if it is as liis impulsive little comrade, or as the young Soph who tried to look dignified when he lavished praise upon her for her several distinctions? Alice was so absorbed in her sentimental soliloquy that she failed to hear the entrance of Tom, her kid brother, who stood a few moments, then threw back his head, with its mass of golden curls, and Ijroke out into a loud, jolly laugh, exclaiming : So Miss Prude has a fel- low ' s picture in her watch, and is ' spooning ' to it. The girl was startled and indignant at this untimely interruption, and returned angrily: What do you mean, you ill-mannered boy, by entering your sister ' s room without knocking? I shall inform mother of it. He retorted by another provoking laugh. Then seeing the blushes on her cheeks, which enhanced her loveliness, he changed his expression and said: Say, Sis, you look awfull - pretty : I ' ll bet if you look that way this evening you will sure catch that Lawton man. Alice opened wide her lieautiful brown eyes, then said in accent sweet : Tom, what do you mean ? ' ' Why, Siss -, that college boy, Mr. Harry Lawton, who used to give me ' nicks ' when 1 was a little tot to bring you notes, arrived here to-daw He knew me at once, asked about every one, and said tell you he would call this evening about eight. Before she could ask more he was running down stairs, singing at the top of his voice. ' ' Harry coming this evening! she exclaimed, glancing at her watch; there were two long hours to wait. She would don her most becoming gown ; it was the color he liked best. Her hair, too, must be arranged in faultless style ; she must look her very best. And truly it would have been hard to find a more charming picture than the one her mirror reflected as she stood before it, nervously awaiting the coming of her hero. At last she heard his ring, and the butler announced Mr. and Mrs Lawton. As she caught the words she stood almost paralyzed. Presently her mother came up and said excitedly : My dear, what do you think ? Harry is married, and thought he would surprise us. ' Alice put her hands to her head, saying languidly : Mother, my head is aching awfully ; please excuse me to them. Darling, j-ou do look very pale ; put on your dressing sacque and lie down, and just as soon as they leave I will bring something to relieve you. As soon as the door closed Alice took the violet from its resting place, held it over the light, then slowly let it drop into the flame. T. J. T. 139 Mother ' s Voice, 4, 4 I am Jist ' iiiiit U musicians, As their music softl) ' falls. Ringing ' round with notes entrancing, ' Neath tlie domes of dancing halls, Sounding louder, then more faintly.

And anon I do inquire If before I ' ve heard such music As I hear from modern lyre. Yes, there conies a sweet remembrance. As my thoughts do backward roam, Of a heavenly voice in childhood, Which I heard at home, sweet home. Oft I hear it in the distance. As it chinffd at eventide. I ' loating through the coming darkness, O ' er the gi cen fields, far and wiile. Again, methinks, I hear its tremor, As it met the rising sun. Filling all the world with gladness When the day ' s work was begun. ris a strain which is far sweeter, Th.m that made by flute ami horn. I ' or il is the voice of mother. Which o ' erjoyed me night and morn. X. L. 14U Social aCife at C. u. This year, for many reasons, has been especiall)- memorable as regards the social life at the University. Never before in the history of the student body has there been snch a feeling of brotherly love existing among the stndents — such a willingness to stand l)y and aid one another. This feeling has been greatly strengthened by the socials given by the Y. M. C. A. at different times during the year. -Also the nightly prayer-meetings at the dormitory; the veekl - meetings of the literar} ' societies and the mass-meetings held at different times have helped greatly to bring the students closer to each other. Then again the students have often met at socials and informal evenings given by different ' 41 organizations of the student Ijody. The fraternities have given a great number of these enter- tainments, and many are the pleasant hours that have been spent attending bauquets, recep- tions and dances given by these young men in their beautiful!) ' furnished halls. Eating clubs are also in abundance ; and numerous and delightful feasts are given by them at the dead of night — feasts that would strike terror to the heart of the experienced housekeeper or any one else, in fact, except a college man. The C. U. Cotillion Club has also added its share to the round of pleasures, and by the enjoyable dances it has given has kept up the reputation it established last year as an ideal social organization. For every change of season there has been a new diversion for our hours of recreation. W ' hen the ground was covered with snow and the streams with ice there were merry sleighing and skating parties. Then when the weather moderated tennis and l)icycling took their place, and became the order of the day. About this time the livery .stable man does a thriving business, and young men may be seen at all hours of the day driving those beautiful thorough- breds, for which this part ol the state is so noted. Still later in the spring comes the militarv outing, which i-- alwa s looked forward to and talked of from the time the first drum-beat is heard on the campus, until the cadets, accompanied by the Faculty, sponsors and maids of honor of the respective companies, board the train for the place in which the competitive drill is to be held. But in our enumeration we have failed to mention the j-oung ladies, probably the most im])ortant factor in the social life of C. U. Aside from entertaining individuallv, thev have banded themselves into clubs which have given the most deliglitful entertainments at which the college men have always been invited. Sesta Serata, which is composed chieflv of co-eds, has added no little to the pleasures of the past sea.son, with its dinners, receptions, buffet-luncheons and many other deli.ghtful entertainments. The Chafing-dish Club has also entertained at stated intervals with very enjoyable luncheons A great deal might be said which will have to be left out, as it would take up too much space, but before we close we would like to thank the people of Richmond for the generous hospitality which they have shown to us at all times. No wonder students hate to leave Richmond, when they are taken into the hcmies and hearts of its inhabitants, and made to feel at home among them.

For the pestilence of the big-head is broken out among you, and your belUes wax fat with conceit. Ye liave conducted yourselves as little tin-gods, and have tried to impress your importance upon all by much speaking. Take heed and be careful what ye do, for ye have greatl_ - offended the Juniors, and they have sworn to eat noth- ing but bull-neck and drink nothing but lemonade until ye be smitten tooth and toenail. Repent and be sorrowful, O ye Juniors I For ye have bragged too much of past .glory, and have done nothing to gain new. Likevi ' ise, ye have instigated cuts, and into the way of unrighteousness have ye led the underclassmen. Also, ye have laughed greatly at the Doctur in his History class, and have said unto him, Ha ! ha ! and likewise, Go to, ' ' which, as e know full well, is the unpardonable sin. Ve have also each made love to many co-eds, which is not lawful. Woe unto you, O ye Sophomores ! For ye have acted foolishh-, and have insulted the upper-classmen. Ye have been overbearing with the Freshmen, who do not love you. Like- wise have ye taken part in many midnight snipe-hunts, showing innocents the sights of the city. Also man} ' jacks have ye used, and often have ye fooled your Latin Prof. Once ye did seek after much glory, and did escort a general. But, beware, I say unto you, for Doc. is surely a variable quantit}-. Therefore, if ye mend nut our ways speedily, ye shall surely lie cast into the same fire that did burn your flag. Alas, ye Freshmen ! Many words of wisdom have been spoken unto you, and ye have heeded them not, but have listened unto soothsayers and false teachers, and have joined frats. Likewise, ye have raised mnn - a rough-house and have liurned the pig-sty. Woe unto you, O ye Freshies ' For e have not laughed at Ake ' s jokes, and ye will surely be flunked for not so doing. Also, many times have ye stamped your number tens when Doc, the son of Smith, did come late to English. Therefore, I say unto vou, beware! For ye shall be chastised by having an undue amount of water thrown upon yiiu, and your name shall be dragged in the mud, even the mud of the pig-sty. Thus speaks the Sage unto all students : 1. Ye shall have class and college spirit. 2. Ye shall attend all base ball and foot-ball games. 3. Ye shall beware of all Profs., all cuts and all frats, for these are dangerous. 4. Ye shall not break into the pantry. 5. Ye shall not look at the Hill girls, for they are forbidden fruit. ' 6. Ye shall not raise a rough-house nor duck those coming up the steps. 7. Ye shall love ' chain-lightning ' and ' dough-balls. ' ' ,s. Ye shall nut cut chapel to join in the flag rush g. Ye shall not go snipe-hunting at an unseemly hour of the night. 10. Ye shall not ride a jack unless it be one that hath an overdue aiu ' al appendage. J. R. s. 144 Some College Publications. My First Societ}- ' euture, by Joe A.
