S yi One of them has been serious and solemneholy 3 the other lots of Q iii fun, We have tried to tell you all about it in this RECORD of , 4 ours. Our hope now is that you will read it carefully, like it, ani g l afterward put it on the best shelf in your library in order that l ' ' present and future generations may properly realize the greatness VW of Ninety Eight. Maybe We've had our little laugh at some of the profs we l r have been vvorkino under and maybe, durin the course of our , I ,ws I s 3 1,1L'yf -f 4 remarks, we have rapped them pretty hard. But all in all, the .' s 'B f 5 profs are a jolly good lot and there's not a man among us who does , ft C3 U' not honor them and count them Hrm friends. And if any one of C 5 :A ,J them feels aggrieved, let him only look again and he will End we have hit each other in similar vein. ' 1 Q div, ,-f?

Such was the glorious and inspiring excla- mation that fell from the ruby lips of Pomp one bright autumn morninv' four years ago, as he sat on the college steps and watched from afar a motley pro- cession of youngsters that was slowly wendinof its way up the library walk from Wfoodland avenue. That procession ladies and Gentlemen, was the Class of 98 which like Minerxa, havinfr sprung forth armed into the world was then about to make its first appearance on the battlefield ofxlife whereon as victors it was destined to gain many unfading laurels and to leave to posterity an una spotted record and a noble example of a well-spent life. -f Let us stop for a moment then to conjure up before our mind s . eye-an ever-pleasing task-that strange procession for surely no ,, Canterbury Pilgrimage ever outdid in variety of body or mind those ,U X individuals who four years ago composed the Class of ,98 p ,t X. Before us all there stalked with lordly step one tall as the pine .fx tree and straight as an arrow. Hyperion's curls fell in graceful iw i '. ,ll l ll ringlets round his kingly brow.

Behind jim there walked, or rather f'rolled, with a prodigious swagger, a stocky little boy, about three feet high, smoking a cigar four feet long. He was dressed to perfection, with pink shirt and pea-green necktie, and from his person emanated a delicious odor of blended vermuth and Manhattan cocktails. Yea, verily, this was our only member of the nobility, Lord Harry Bartol, the Cambridge sport, fresh-yes, very fresh-from the aca- demic beer gardens on the banks of the Cam. Wfhat puzzled us at the time about Harry was that he was closely accompanied by a stout and jovial-looking German boy, whose duty it seemed to be to keep him from rolling into the gutter, but whose general appearance was quite the opposite of his companions. VVe were quite at a loss to understand the friendship, but when ,we learned that the youth's name was Adolph Thanhauser, the mystery was explained. Not far behind this remarkable pair appealed the curious spectacle of . f Qtgi Arthur Wfilson beine' ushed in a bab f carriage b 1 our nrize co-ed, Louisa- 9 b P 5 . 5 l E, she who has in turn been engaged to every member of the 'Wharton School, ex- cept Teddy Sohm. QShe had to draw the line somewherej Arthur was sucking WX X, his bottle as happy as a prince, and Louisa herself seemed quite proud of her W :fi little charge, and also of the fact that she was the first co-ed who had ever Wixvi XI I I I 5 . , . . S,0.T,f,3Eg0Q N i i, evinced her usefulness in any branch of life. Not far away was Ralph Wfilson, 4 to-ED at in red and blue jockey clothes, astride a wheezing mare, for you know Ralph HMM ' , H : 'I l. l was both patriotic and horsey to the backbone, and was never known to walk Ml when he could trot, even at examination times. Perhaps that is the reason why ' if ' fu. ,- . - . - if f- , f- -' Ralph suddenly left us in liebruary to pursue a course in modern lirench art at Harvard. A little farther down the line-for time compels your historian to pass over many of our most wonderful phenomena-there was a modest little fellow with very large feet, who carried a neat little bag. From one of his pockets there protruded a prayer book, from the other a pack of cards. This is enough to tell you that he was Caleb Cresson, twenty-seventh of his name,whose great-great-grandfather was a terrible sport, and used to go on boozes with Benny Franklin, as Caleb used to relate to us with great pride. Following Caleb walked, arm-in-arm, two pretty little boys, with broad sailor collars and rosy cheeks, prattling away i 76 about dolls and baby houses. Little did we think at the time that young Charley Hutchinson and Ralph Pember- ton, the picture of blissful innocence, would in a few years be branded by the scornful Pomp as them saciety asses. The tail of the procession was brought up by a queer-looking youth, with an enormous head, which he knowingly wagged from side, and which he would occasionally tap gravely, as much as to say, Ah, there, my noble brain! This, it is needless to say, was Burt Easton, the general repository of '98's useless knowledge. As the procession drew near College Hall and was about to enter for the first time the historic basement door, a loud and shrill shouting was heard, and a wee small youth, with ruddy cheeks, was seen coming up the walk, in his petticoats and sailor hat-bounding along with prodigious strides and jumps. No less a worthy was this than our embryo president of to-day, Percy Remington, Esq. Ah, me! what mighty changes will four short years bring to pass! Wfhen we got inside the building Pomp took charge of us, and after some difficulty managed to steer us all into chapel. After we had broken the usual number of benches in chapel and had, as is customary with all respectable Freshman classes, prayed when we should have sung, and sung when we should have prayed, Dr. Fullerton gave us a sarcastic welcome, and, with a wink at 'Q7, committed us as younger brothers to their care, but, alas! he knew not whereof he spoke, as '97 soon found out, when she tried to play horse with us under the mad delusion that, like Freshman classes in the past, we would prove easy fruit. The first great event of our Freshman year was our opening class meeting. Every one, of course, knew what that meeting meant, and, while we may all have been as brave as possible under the circumstances, yet some of the younger fry-Polly Wlatson and Kid Vincent in par- ticular-paled visibly at the sounds coming up from the lower hall, which, though in reality nothing but braying, sound-ed to their innocent ears like lions' roars. Gf course we held elections first, and- Billy Lucas being the only man who could show any signs of side whiskers, was elected president over the heads of many promising mous- taches. He wasted no time, but at once appointed a yell committee, who, by divine inspiration, concocted the deaf- ening slogan that has seen us through thick and thin for four long years. CA practical. exhibit of this article had C- c been planned, but as it was discovered that the roof of the academy was somewhat weak, the plan had to be aban- donedj Then we undressed for the coming fray-some more, some less. Harry Bartol took off everything, l ' t C l ' l threatened destruction even to our yellj,.and Percy Remington slipped f l After listening impatiently to a wordy harangue from the Charley Chipley took off ns crava w uc 1 off his kilts and buckled tight his little blouse or p ay. '77 7 r junior president, we sallied forth shouting our war cry and making remarks about the Class of 397, which, though true, decency still prohibits us from repeating. Like the Assyrians from the hills, we rushed down upon our prey- but why attempt in vain to detail the particulars of that ever-fresh victory. The battle of Vlfatjerloo and '98's Freshman rush are events which defy the pen of the most skillful historian. ln the hall and the Assembly Room we wrote our victory in the blood of ,Q7, and even the conservative estimate of Pomp placed the number fof Sophomore noses permanently incapacitated at fifty-five, while Sophomore eyes changed color to a man. Yea, '98 was weighed in the balance on the 4th of October, 1894, and found to be good weight. Encouraged by this success, we then said, f'Let us have a football team -and we had one! such a one as had never been in old Pennsylvania before. Wfe lacked nothingg grit, muscle, weight, nerve, speed and unity, all were ours. In fact, we were perfect. But now, ladies and gentlemen, a curious phenomenon resulted from this combination. If you will look into the history of Pennsylvania's football teams you will find that many have been excellent, but none absolutely perfect. They have all lacked something, even though it may only have been the proper length of hair. Therefore, as no perfect team has ever licked any other team, and as '98 had a perfect team, ergo CFullerton's course on syllogisms, junior yearj, '98 Cin obedience to a cruel law of necessityj never licked any other team-a proud record, which we upheld not only in Freshman year, but also throughout our entire college course. About the end of january the faculty became alarmed for our intellectual welfare, and tried to make us answer a lot of horrid questions on fools-cap paper. Many of our number naturally resented the insult and insisted on leaving college, and when we came to count up, thirty-seven little gravestones were found in the cemetery of our grieving hearts, and on each the pathetic inscription, Here lieth A. B. C. A victim to an unjust faculty. Not lost, but gone before. '98's Freshman supper is cloaked in a mystery which has foiled the most persistent effoits of your historian. The f'Pennsylvanian says that the supper was held at Boldt's on the Iith of February, but as the same journal says that the toasts were all given in a fresh manner, it is quite evident that this account cannot be relied upon. Not having attended the function myself, I carefully made inquiry concerning the matter, of every member of the class who, from his propensity to gin would have been likely to attend, but alas, their minds were perfect blanks, from I. Barry Colahan, whose mind is always in this condition, and who was to have toasted athletics, down to Xfvilflllg Parks, the minister's son, who was chairman of the committee, Determined to leave no stone unturned J th-is mystery to exploref' I went as a last resource to the restaurant itself, but, would you believe it, the mo- 8 V l ,LH ment I mentioned '98, the proprietors face grew purple with rage-he foamed at the mouth with anger-and l barely had time to run for my life, narrowly escaping a hob-nailed shoe. I have done my best. You have the evidence, make your own assumption. The most noteworthy event of our Freshman year was he bowl fight, Determined to put an end to the tedious babiness that had been instilled into the bowl iight by our predecessors we chose Harry Bartol, bowlman, he being the toughest member of the class-and armed to the teeth, sallied iorth to the Athletic Field with him in our midst. Harry's appearance caused somewhat oi a sensation. The Pennsylvanian said the next day: Hidfhen Bartol, who is not very large, was seen, everybody said, 'He wonit do! He'l1 be killedl' Everybody was mistaken, as it proved. You bet they were. Wfith 'KTub Andrews, Putt Ambruster, johnny Calver, the solid balloon, and a few others oi like build gathered about him he never had a hair of his head injured. True it is that when eighty Sophoniores sat on him en masse things for a time looked rather flat from the outside-but it didn't worry Harry. He just burrowed a nice little hole in the ground and, cuddling up, was about to go to sleep when Charley Mcllvaine saw the danger, and with remarkable pres- ence of mind called out: Oh, Harry, have a drink on mel The effect was instantaneous. To use the words of one of Hari-y's most famous Cambridge songs, That was enough for him. You should have seen him run, He was off in thc twinkling of an eye. And that was the last that Ninety-seven saw of our bowlman-the tirst time in ten years that a bowlman had es- caped the Sophomores. Of course we then turned our attention to the bowl, but as soon as we had laid hands upon it our hearts relented of their evil purpose. Oh, my eye! Vtfhat a beauty! VVouldn't that be nice to ,sail toy boats in? piped Percy Remington, and as we all agreed that it was entirely too pretty to break on a fire plug we gave it back to the Sophs and marched off well satisfied with our own prowess and our generosity. It should be mentioned, however, out of justice to the immodest valor ot our opponents that they did succeed in bringing to light several of our handsomest ighters, among whom Charley Hutchinson, in a pair of shoes, at- tracted the most admiration from the co-eds, who were gathered in the biological windows with opera glasses. After this, victories over ,Q7 just fell into our lap. In baseball the Oglesby family, aided by Mary Morrison, Dwight, Mallory and Pop Willieliii, not only licked them once, but on their making aspersions on our character 79 which our honor could not brook, to the effect that accidents will happen, did the trick again ten days later. It was on the river, however, that the greatest victory over Ninety-seven was won, and in this case, but in this case only, it can be said that the name of Ninety-eight, like the poet S'helley's, is writ in water. The first thing to note about the Freshman crew is that Bell was on it. In fact, any one who had seen Bell ten .days before the race, sporting around in an enormous sweater which his family had just presented him on his fourteenth birthday, would have thought that he was the only man on the crew-for Bell certainly thought so. However, there were others equally faithful, but thank Heaven, less talkative toilers-including' Captain Mallory, Oscar-lhfilde-lfVest and 'fCholly Lister-to say nothing of Percy Remington, who had been chosen coxy on account of this skill he had displayed in steer-ingu Harry Bartol home from the Mask' and lhfig smokers. Altogether the crew was what Homer Smith would call a peach-even if it did insist on rowing without the usual garments of American citizens and thereby narrowly escaped extermination at the hands of the Park police. Contrary to custo-m, the race was rowed before the opening of examinations in deference to the earnest plea of our captain, who did not look for- ward to the result of Hexamsu with the proper feelings of unmingled joy. ' To describe that race would be tempting Providence. The banks of the river groaned under the weight of '98,s loyal supporters, the trees shook at the repetition of Ninety-eight's classic slogan, as the crews started off neck and neck at the crack of the pistol. All went Ninety-eight's way until the half mile mark was reached, when a sudden rattle of machinery was heard from No. 6-and the next things to be seen were Percy Bell's feet- waving in the air Qhorrible thoughtlj and a blue streak of farmers' oaths coming from the bottom of the boat. Vtfhat caused this accident no one ever knew. Some said that Percy suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to do his chores before leaving the farm, others, that he had fallen asleep and dreamt of crabs, while Percy protested that his seat had been -sawn in two by ,97 be- fore the race. All of these explanations are quite plausible and you can take your choice. This naturally retard- ed somewhat the lightning progress of the boat, but Percy lost no time in turning to without a seat, and rowed with such amazing vigor that Ninety-eight soon recovered her lead and finally crossed the line 'eight of Caleb Cressonls feet in the lead-which is equivalent to about fifteen yards, American' standard. Of course Ninety- seven protested the race Cshe loved to hear herself talkj on the ground that the finishing line should have extend- ed diagonally from the nnish to the start, thus assuring her of the race before it had begun-but luckily Tismer, the judge, was large, honest and German, and so the gilded medals adorned the breasts of Ninety-eight's cham- So I 1 pions, and Ninety-seven was again left to chew the rag ,by herself in silent anger at having been the first Sopho4 more class ever licked by Freshmen on the water. It now becomes the painful duty' of your historian to turn for a moment from the lighter to the more serious side of college life and to record the two sad bereavemcnts which the class has met with in the past four years. The first of 'these occurred in the middle of Freshman year, when George VVelsh Frescoln, one of the truest, noblest and .most upright members of the class was suddenly taken from our midst. All who knew George Fres- coln loved and honored him for his sterling worth, and his death, which fell like a pall upon the entire class, was one of those solemn and mysterious manifestations of Providence which it is hard to understand. No less sad was the death of Joseph Roberts, which occurred last winter a year ago. Roberts, like Frescoln, was a member of the Latin and Greek section of the Arts, and -during his three years in college had most strongly endeared himself to his class mates. His unusual kindness of heart, his uprightness of character, his purity of life, his never failing willingness torhelp a classmate, his entire freedom from affectation, and his Christian manliness, all stamped him as one of the most truly noble men in the class. Everybody knew poor joe Robertsg nobody ever had a word to say against him. A sad, sad day it was for his classmates when they stood by his grave, amid the sno-w of a winter's day and saw his body lowered into its last resting place. Ninety-eight has indeed been un- fortunate in those whom she has lost. Sophomore year came, but not so Barry Colahan, Walter' Van Kirk and a few others, who had been per- mitted to enter to Ninety-nine. However, we were consoled of our grief for those who had fallen by the wayside in the addition to our number of Arthur Gerhard and Francis McGrath, both of whom, it seems, had become dis- gusted with the faculties at Yale and Haverford respectively and had come to Pennsylvania, hoping-but alas, they hoped in vain. Both of them understood their parts, and Arthur Gerhard introduced himself to us at his first recitation by throwing dice at the physic tea'cher's cranium-while Shorty McGrath performed this ceremony by asking Tatnall in the comico-gravico manner for which he is famous: Is it so that some teachers have vacuums in the center of their head, Professor? This latter question, by the way, was followed by a deathly silence, dur- ing which Tatnall blushed scarlet, and only recoveredaenough to send Shorty to the dean to obtain the desired in- formation. 51 rv g'..,:,x Mil - I C- uw - gf' ,,1a:j'f,jf rw, f'f'2Qf'ff7, A , f : ii lWuillmlW'WNwivamit.i 1 1 sf gfi ffififf LX x 'llmwiiiiiimmiuwiinw-i, . in W: , 'iw' ' 3 ' f kW7'4WfT'f6-1? gf?

'--?'.f--- - - H .D,Cu.'n'n-rx!?B' Many circumstances combined to make Ninety- eight's Sophomore Dance a noteworthy event. In the first place we had a noteworthy committee, including all the Usportsl' and dead game beatsl' of the class, and in the second place we jollied the trustees into permitting us to give the dance in the new Houston Hall before itnhad been opened for the University. Of course the hall was not built for ladies, and it was in recognition of Charley l-lutchinson's brilliant suggestion that the fair sex be al- lowed to dress in the pool room and hang their garments on the billiard cues, that he was elected chairman. Caleb Cresson being the only member on the committee whose father had a bank account accessible to the chairman, was installed as treasurer, and the committee forthwith pro- ceeded to make the best of its opportunities, and as a re- sult gave the most highly original and successful Sopho- more danee that is recorded in the annals of history. It was, in fact, a howling, laughing, screeching success. Everybody knew everybody else and everybody was jolly, from the orchestra to the committee. Ralph Pemberton disappeared with the handsomest girl in the room at I1 o'clock, and three hours later the happy couple emerged with smiling faces from behind a bank of palms. How- ard Butcher and Wfaring Parks, those perfect devils, were caught kissing their girls under the mistletoe, while it was reported on reliable authority that Charley Mell- vaine consummated no less than three engagements in the short space of two hours. Sz Sophomore supper was held at the Boursc not long after the dance-and one word alone is sufhcient to re- call the memories of that delightful occasion-Punch-Fish-House Punch. Never since our forefathers of the State in Schuylkillu lirst concocted the original Hhsh housef' Anno Domini 1732-llZ1Cl such perfection been at- tained in this ambrosial drink. Arthur Gerhard was the first to get on top of the table to sing its praises, when a biscuit skillfully aimed by Teddy Sohm, hit him in the pit of the stomach, and falling over backwards 'fl-Ie curled up on the floor And the subsequent proceedings interested him no more. to quote the jovial Bret Harte. Many others attempted to do justice to this famous flowing bowl, but all finally found a resting place beneath the table. To tell the truth, rumors of that punch got to the ears of the XV. C. T. U., and since that time champagne has been the only strong beverage at class suppers-and our only fish-house as compared to that, is as Ninety-eight to any other class that ever entered the University. In the Sophomore bowl-fight Ninety-eight manifested her striking and characteristic originality by charging admission to the tight in order to replenish her coffers, which had been drained dry by the astounding bill for dam- ages at the class supper. As a result there were more spectators than ever before, and we were soon set up for the remaining two years of college. The fight itself was chiefly notable for the dishonorable manner in which Ninety-nine violated every rule of the agreement. It seems that the Freshies had chosen the provostls son as bowl man, thinking that we would not dare do violence to one of such a noble sire, and that the said Youthful Charles had grown extremely pale at the thought of meeting his adversaries face to face, as Harry Bartol had done, and had piteously begged his class-mates to save him from the lion's teeth. Accordingly, when the fight came off and the Freshies started out to meet us, the lcidling Charles qualced with terror and immediately started out in the other direction for the fence, in direct violation of the sacred and time honored rules ofthe fight. Think- ing that this was done in jest we had the ight started over again, but when the same cowardly performance was repeated wegrew disgusted with the Freshie's dirty tricks, and placing johnny Calver on the bowl, we started in and gave those 'Freshmen the worst thrashing they ever got in all their life. The Sophomore Declamation Contest was won by Ninety-eight's champion orator, Shorty McGrath, alias 53 Strong man. This young gentleman being of a blood-thirsty disposition, gave a blood-thirsty selection from one of Billy IXfIcClenthen's unpublished society novels, entitled Did She Fall V or Wfas She Brushed? which took the judges by storm and quite overshadowed Easton's and C. S. Langstrothls graceful impersonations- of Lord Burke. ' The greatest surprise of Sophomore year was our brilliant victory over the Freshies in llllllllll pmlif track sports. In the mile walk Percy Bell's great wind capacity served the class in good stead for once, while Fitchy Bryant, Clarence Ebaugh and jim Stitzer had things quite their , own way in the perambulating acts. As for the bicycle race, A. IV. Smith said he hadn't had M such a good sleep for two weeks. 'tl lg, , ll hill- it l X 1 In the Sophomore Cremation the mighty brain of Burt Easton began to show itself to be 'Uk' of use, and as a result the passing of Homer Smith was the most melodramatic blow that ever - l X, I fell upon the college faculty. Gerhard was allotted the part of I-Iomer for two reasons-first, ,A because of his deep-rooted affection for the teacher of the vernacular, and second, because of the great practice he had acquired in doing the corpse act-it being a frequent sight to see Arthur carried out of the Bellevue by two coppers at three in the morning. As might have been expected, therefore, he played his part to perfection, the only difficulty being that when we got him into the hearse, which we had prepared for him at great expense, he fell fast asleep, and it was only with the greatest- difficulty that we were able to drag him forth and give him into the custody of Percy Remington, who, in the guise of Pomp, fairly out-InIeroded I-Ierodu and was really better than his original. In fact we all agreed that it was a great mistake that Percy had not been born colored. Another highly entertaining character was the valiant Agamemnon,,' alias Teddy Sohm -and the funny part of it was that Teddy, in his conscientious endeavor to act his character to the life, had insisted on getting exceedingly full before hand. Consequently, with his helmet, sword and breast plate, he was the ir- resistible and unapproachable lord of the occasion. Burt Easton's perfect ease and grace as Mephistopheles spoke volumes for the future resting place of his soul-but the fact that he and the other speakers, Freddy Pax- son and Billy McClenthen-were all trying for the Sophomore English Prize with I-Iomer fwho, it is reported, viewed the proceedings through a knot hole in the fencej, caused their speeches to lack the proper scurrility. However, no one who saw the hundred prancing devils with fifty-cent-extra tails shouting in Bacchic revel around the funeral pyre, could have denied that 'QSJS cremation was the warmest of the warm. junior year opened with a surprise party in class elections, when the ldfharton School decided that three Arts presidents in a line was an insult to their honorable body,and, at the instigatlon of G. Knipe and Stilz, created a mon- 84 strous political hydra which thrust Freddy Siegfried into the presidential chair. Freddy being an upright, honest man, could not with decency desert his faithful constituents, and accordingly appointed a junior Ball Committee, which gave offense to the Eighth Wfard Aristocracy-Hutchinson, Pemberton Q Co. A bold, base scheme was therefore hatched, and at the next class meeting the Aristocratic Bummers silently seized upon their imaginary rights by substituting for the objectionable committee the Sophomore Dance Committee, with power to increase. Despite this, the ball left little to be desired, and each member of the committee generously contributed 315.20 1 H ....,,. 1 1. T' 'W J f lllsgug' l 5 '.u' limb zu u' W 'u' I' 521: I s I I.

No one who has co-me withini hailing, distance of Ninety-eight can have failed to notice that they were pre- eminently jokers-they were, in fact, the wags of the whole University. All choice bon-mots came from Ninety-eight, and as for roasts on the professors-a vol- ume would not contain those of Shorty McGrath alone. Two roasts that occurred in junior year must be men- tioned. Fullerton, the keeper of '98's conscience, the man who started Horace Longwell and Billy McClenthen on the downward path, succumbed one day to Cupid's shafts, and news of his accident was quickly spread abroad. This was too good a chance to be missed, and when next the doctor entered class room to deliver his favorite lecture on Under what conditions it is one's duty to get drunlcf! his eyes were met by the sight of two dainty, warm, drip-- ping calves' hearts pierced by an arrow hanging from the chandelier, while on his desk-his sacred philosophic desk-he saw two Pennsylvania dollies claspinig each other in warm embrace. A curtain must be drawn over the scene which followed. It is enough to say that the doctor and his wife had the hearts for tea--while the dol- 55 lies-well-. The other famous roast on the faculty was the product of Peter Mayer's fertile mind. Aided by Shorty McGrath, this daring Irishman lighted a three-foot fire cracker outside of Homer S'mith's room in the dormitories while Homer was having converse with two familiar spirits on the inside. The explosion was quite the event of the year in the dormitories. The junior Supper was chiefiy remarkable for thepersistence of Chipley in throwing knives, plates, spoons and glasses at the speakers. Ninety-eight always had been Death on Deans, and therefore when the class returned in Senior year from Bar Harbor, Coney Island, Manayunk, Camden and the Blockley Hospital, they were not surprised to find a new incumbent in that office-Josiah Harmar Penniman-Uyoung Penniman of Ninety as he is called by the faculty - j'osh,', as he is called by his loving friends, the under- graduates. Many of us remembered Iosia'h,' as having been a peculiarly vicious student a few years before C'9o's Historian says that he frequented Gloucesterj, and we were naturally curious to see how he would proceed. But alas, he basely turned a,gainst us the knowledge he had gained while in college. He knew as well as Jack Sinkler or Ray Smith what an easy snap the excuse system was-when attendance at Pc-int Breeze was considered severe illnessi' and a morning at the Rathskeller, a den- tist's engagement -so crash went that monumental piece of machinery, and we soon found ourselves tied to Iosiah's apron strings, confiding all our little troubles to him. Again, he knew as well as Sleepy,' Levett or Iohnny VVise what a pleasant nap one could have in chapel during the sonorous discourse of the antediluvian chaplains-and crash No. 2-went these time-honored figureheads, and in place Josiah himself' ex- ygig pounded Scriptures with one eye on the book and the other eye on the Freshman 'P class. But the worst was yet to come-the Students' Committee-a tyrannical bodv re f which he organized and whose duties were to act as official co-llege spies, to report to him all. of- ? fenders or likely offenders, to squelch all petitions, to abolish all honored customs, to turn chapel into N i a second Quaker-meeting-in short, to suppress all lawful rights and privileges of the great under- S graduate body. . Wfith the aid of Georgy,' Fullerton, Josh for a time hynoptized Percy Rennngw M W. ton fwho as semor president he had made chairman of that bodyj into believing that the committee :ff ll was a good thing, but Percy's trance did not last long. He awoke one fine morning to the realiza- :M tion that the faculty was pulling his 'leg-which was a very serious matter, for Percy's legs are not 1 I N very large even if they do show off well wh en stuffed with cotton at the Mask and Wfig perform- - ances. Accordingly, after pondering for some time as to whether he should slay the Dean outright or take unto himself faithful confederates, he decided that the latter was the safer course, and forth- S6 with broached the subject to his boon companions, Arthur Gerhard and 'fShorty McGrath. The result of this was that on the evening of the first of january, 1893, several policemen saw three masked figures move across the College Campus and disappear through a basement window in College Hall which had apparently been opened by a f'jimmy. Let us follow them Cnot the policemen, they followed laterj, and unravel the meaning of this nightly ex- pedition. Silently they sneaked up ninze Hights of stairs, and avoiding numerous watchmen, burglar alarms, Span- ish mines, etc., etc., they entered lWesselhoeft's room Qfourth floor westj. By means of unnamable burglary imple- ments they then opened the little door leading to the clock-tower, and one by one disappeared up the ladder into regions hitherto untrod by any but the sacred feet of Pomp. But their trials did not end here, fo-r the tower is high and windy and the bell which daily peals forth its welcome UD summons was in the very pinnacle of the tow- er, securely locked in a story by itself. But the ten-pound padlock did not daunt the hearts of these brave adven- turers, for noiselessly crawling up the bell rope which hung down to one side, they crept through the hole left for the passage of the rope and were soon safely landed in Paradise-though how they did it they do not know to this day. Once there they speedily produced a candle, a razor, a bandage and a closely written parchment roll, and lighting the candle and laying the roll on the side of the bell they bravely drew the razor across their wrists, and dipping their Irl1'1g6l'S in the gushing blood subscribed their names as members of the Holy and Perpetual Grder of the Friars of Saint josiahn-an organization whose avowed purpose was the reformation of the dean. This done the saints proceeded to descend to the nether world, just as the clock pealed forth the midnight hour-but no sooner had they begun to crawl down the secret ladder into Dutchy,s room when a sound was heard below, and looking out through a chink in the boards they saw to their eternal dismay the University policeman with pis- tol in hand, striding up and down, waiting for them to appear. Although they had securely locked the door after them when they ascended, and although Pomp alone had the key, yet they would surely be discovered when col- lege opened unless something were done. Percyfs hair assumed a perpendicular position, Arthur's jaw rattled with fright until it threatened to fall off, while Shorty McGrath, the undaunted, was actually compelled to mop the beads of sweat from his forehead. Matters were indeed serious and heaven only kn.ows what would have be- come of the Friarshad not the policeman, after keeping his eye on the door for over two hours, finally grown sleepy and stretched himself out on the long table for a comfortable snooze. Not a moment was to be lost. Quietly slipping off their shoes the order stole down the ladder into the room, passed the sleeping Titan, opened the door of the room and immediately proceeded on a dead run down the hall. But, alas, Arthur Gerhard in his fright dropped one of his shoes to the Ho-or, and the earthquake that followed aroused the snoring Hcopperf' just in time for him to see Shorty's coat-tails disappearing down the stairs. For nine Hights it was a race for life, but 57 the friars won, the window was reached in safety and the honor of the H. 0. F. S. I. was preserved intact and un- sullied. The first official act of the order was to attend the Maennerchor Ball by entering the Academy of Music through a rear window by means of a ladder stretched from the window of a neighboring stable loft across an in- tervening alley. The second official act was to send to their patron saint a gentle reminder of their existence in the shape of two dainty valentines of the penny variety-one representing that honored gentleman in the guise of a grizzly bearg the other showing him up with a handsome pair of red wings, a forked tail and a cloven hoof. These preliminaries accomplished, the order turned in earnest to its original purpose and worked with such energy and skill that within two months all the new grievances were swept out of college in a body and the Dean had been metamorphosized into the Ustudents' friend worthy of having his handsome countenance reproduced in the Record. All honor then to the Friars! Senior supper was an event that will long be remembered by all except QI shame to say itj Lister and Chipley, who were unfortunately in that comatose condition throughout the entire repast that is not conducive to good memo-ry. Of course Ninety-eight invited the gems of the faculty to be present, and as a result the beaming faces of the Reformed Dean, Doctor Smith, 'joel' Johnson and Duke Marburg adorned the festive board-which, by the way, was set in the shape of a horse-shoe in order, as the committee explained, that those members of the class most addicted to the brimming cup might occupy seats in' the centre so as not to inconvenience the other members of the class when they slid under the table. The menu was printed in ten languages and twenty colors, and was only excelled in excellence by the repast itself, which would have done honor to Lucullus. Une o-f the greatest features of the dinner was the exhibition of repartee between Percy Bell and the dean. Anthony Hope was simply not in it, and when Percy finally inquired of Josiah Qduring an interim of conversation when Harry Bartol was lighting a cigarettej if the University was so poor that it could not afford chaplains this year, this was judged the co-up-de-gracef' by acclamation and Percy was given an extra plate of ice cream. The dean in fact did no-t enjoy the repast as much as might have been expected, and when, shortly after Percy Bell's thunder- bolt, the melodious voices of Teddy Sohm, Mary Morrison and Eddy Stoyle were heard coming from the far end of the table in dulcet strains of one of Iosia'h's favorite hymns, it was too much for even him to bear. Wfaiting only to swallow his coffee and to tell us, with a reproachful look at Charley Lister, who was playing ten pins with rolls and champagne bottles, that it was we who must set an example of virtue and sobriety to the whole commun- ity, he left the room with tear drops in his eyes. The toasts were simply grand, and in fact all went merry as a marriage bellf' and when at 3.30 A. M. the last member of the committee was carried to his cab by the waiters he was heard to say: A hic of a fine supper ani a hic of a line class. SS Election for class day ofhcers passed off with but a single hitch. Freddy Paxson was elected class bard be- cause he liked to let his hair grow, while Burton Easton. who had discovered for the beneht of the readers of the Red and Blue Qhimself and the editor-in-chiefj that his girl possessed both Hgolden curlsl' and teeth like pearls, was unanimously selected to encourage the sprouting ivy with his song. Smith, the sweet-tongued Breckenridge from Alabama, was elected Ivy Orator because it was thought that his beard would please the ladies, and the mantle of prophecy descended upon the shoulders of Louis Haney, who had recently completed his seventh reading of the world's literature. The election of a valedictorian was a somewhat more difficult mat- ter, and to understand the bitter strife that accompanied this event one must be acquainted with the peculiar polit- ical condition of Ninety-eight. From time immemorial the class had been divided into three divisions-the Arts Division, the VVharton School Division and the Jim Langstroth Division-which last was by far the most numer- ous and important, and always held the balance of power. Now it happened that young Shorty McGrath, of the Arts, having won every possible prize for essays, orations, debates, stump speeches and tirades against the faculty since he had entered college, and having been told by certain members of the said faculty that his election as vale- dictorian would follow as a matter of course, ventured to indulge in the rash hope that he would be an easy win- ner in this event, and so with criminal carelessness failed to consult with jim Langstroth in regard to his election. This naturally t'riled jim, who, as the official Leg and 'Wire Puller of the class, had the entire charge of such matters, and in the determination to teach Shorty a lesson he shifted the votes of his division over to the 'Wharton School, who, curiously enough, had nominated jimls brother Charles. This made things very pleasant, and Charles was elected amid the cheers of his brother jim, who afterwards was heard to say to the weeping Shorty, Not that I loved you less, Shorty, but that I loved Charles more. lt is a fact worth noting in this connection that upon Shorty's resignation soon after from the offices of class treasurer and chairman of the Class Day Com- mittee both these were immediately filled by jim, who, it is rumored, promised Shorty the Mayoralty of Philadel- phia in 1928 as a reward for creating these vacancies. And now, ladies and gentlemen, your historian's task is finished. Mindful of the advice of old Horace that one may well speak the truth with jestingf' he has tried, to the best of his ability, to lay before you a few of those characters and events which have been most thoroughly typical of the spirit of Ninety-eight and whose memories will be fondly cherished in days to come, long after the knowledge gained from books has passed into the things that were. The four short years of happiness-the happiest that we shall ever know-have fled away faster than we can realize. The time has at last arrived when we must sadly break our ranks and separate into the walks of a larger world fraught alike with greater possibilities and greater evils. But if the past can be taken as an augury S9 of the future, Ninety-eight has little to fear, for she can to-day rejoice with justifiable pride in the thought that she has ever upheld in all her deeds the sacred honor of her alma mater. To her, then, on the eve of the great battle of life, her historian can offer no brighter hope than that she may display in the world before her those same sterling qualities which have characterized her career under the sheltering walls of dear old Perm. of Bolhlrung me ' me Q 1 MQEFX Qs fb' L 85 X N, xy 7 .

The class had just spent an hour with Dr. Rennert, reading Dantels Inferno, and after it was all over I felt both hungry and tired. To satisfy the first demand I took some lunch in Houston Hall, and, in an unhappy moment, as a sort of reminiscence of the preceding hour, I ordered some macaroni and cheese. This was soon dispatched, but, sad to tell, not completely done away with. The maca- roni, to be sure, was as harmless and innocent' as usual, but that cheese was the most self-asserting cheese T ever ate. It would not permit me to forget that it had an identity of its own. It was like the world of which Wfordsworth complained, too much with us. In short, I concluded that I had made a mistake, and there was nothing left to do, save to sleep off the bad effects. So I buried myself in one of the deep arm-chairs in the reading-room of Houston Hall, and there I thought of cheese and macaroni, but mostly cheese. And then my 98 thoughts Hitted to Dante, and I thought of the wretched work jim Langstroth and Rosenbach did, because they used I..ongfellow's English version, and how W'atson and Elliott generally did very well, by the help of Nor- ton's splendid prose translation, and how Easton used no pony at all, but translated literally-so literally, in- deed, that no one Cincluding himselfj knew exactly what he meant. I refiected over the whole narrative of the 'fInferno, until finally my mind dwelt on the first canto, whereupon In the midst of the pathway of our life, I found myself in an unknown place astray, for the right 'way had been lost. 'Where it was. or how I chanced upon it I cannot well recount, so full was I of slumber when I abandoned the true way. But when I reached the summit of a hill, on which I made my errant course, I saw before me stretched a muddy stream, whose thick and chocolate-colored waters made glad my anxious heart, because I knew it needs must be the Schuylkill. I hastened toward its low, familiar bank, and as I gazed into the turbid depths, before mine eyes appeared a being in the guise of man, who made his presence felt by rousing fear. 'II-Iave pity on me, I cried to him, what so thou art-or shade, or real man! He answered me, 'KNO man am I, but Guardian of the days to come. I am the Spirit of Euturity, destined to guide thy tottering steps to the tenth circle in the years unborn, that' thou mayest witness to thy full content the fates of those of '98 Place thou thy trust in me, and have no fear. Strange are the sights that thou shalt see, and sad withal. Hence over Time's broad gate the legend stands, 'All hope abandon, ye who enter here.' But let us hasten, for the day will scarce suffice to lay the revelations clear before thine eyes. Eorthwith he beckoned to the farther bank, and from a hidden cove a skiff shot out, guided by a single pilot, who carefully laid out his course across the creamy waves to where we stood, and as the boat drew near I recog- nized the steersman-johnny Wfise, the coxswain of the college crew. He took us both on board and made his way toward the farther bank, and as we crossed some microbes from the filthy stream clung to the boat and sought toiclamber in, until I with fear cried out. But Johnny tapped them lightly with his oar, and thrust them back, and in despair they sank. VVithout mishap we crossed the flood, and landed safely on the other side, and now my guide conducted me unto an old familiar height, some half a mile beyond the stream, whereon a structure stood, both long and high, much likethe famed Chiesa dei Spaghetti in Milan. It was the College Hall, and seemed as dirty and as damp as in the days of yore. 99 Here my guide and I both entered, and in the basement found one walking up and down and muttering to himself in a strange tongue, I knew not what. The ample shock of hair revealed that it was Liknaitz. 'WVhat fun Wea si 45 Q ' f fl-X S erz Ifaf 1 Teaching 1-Afnn. Kf LGE? ' M h r does he is st.1l pass in bad. I they do quoting My here, after this lapse of years,?', said I unto my guide. The Spirit replied, This one an undergraduate. I-Ie takes the mathematics of the Freshman year and yet must physics. And even as he spoke, poor Liknaitz turned and said to us. It is too cannot get these mathematics in my head. It is not so in my native town. There not so. Ach! I know not why it is. Then, with a parting look of scorn, he fled, I-Ieine in despair. s guide and I then mounted to the second Floor, and walked to the western end. Wfithin a class-room built of glass and called in former days the 'icagefl there sat a weary and worn instructor teaching Latin to the assembled youth. This said the guide is ! Q ,. ! tg 7 the famous Merzbacher. He eats not, neither does he sleep. I-Ie simply works. The Trustees, recognizing his wonderful capacity for work, have dismissed the entire classical faculty and engaged Merzbacher, who teaches all the Latin and the Greek that here is taught, Behold the ill effects of learning! In saddest thoughts I left the College I-Iall, my guide still at my side. The latter pointed to a building which I ne'er had seen before, and said, This is the new gymnasium. Therein Fitch Bryant, Murphy's great successor, trains the athletic student to win glory on the field. At times Ed. Landis lends him aid, bringing his warm enthusiasm into play, and telling the boys how '98 achieved her greatnessfi We had not time to pause, but on- ward urged our faltering steps from the University. ' Wfe had not proceeded far before we saw a man approaching, strangely dressed and carrying before him a huge sign. As he drew near I saw that it was VVilliams, and glancing at the sign, I read: MARTELIXS RESTAURANT BEST 15-CENT MEALS IN THE CITY IIANO CONCERTS HGURLY IOO fins, said the guide, is one whom we must visit. Let us seek this restaurant, ,fi r 1 ES1A,Lf:t2f',I,Y and thou shalt learn how Fortune in .her favorite moods may smile upon a man. IfVe Tgllfgrtlzsgguoue J turned the corner, and I heard' the strains of one of Chopin's waltzes in the air. I knew ,gg-ll,st:C0Ncf lim, that we were near our destination, and, indeed, a few steps more brought us before the Fir-N it restaurant. Vife paused not at the threshold long, but entered boldly and took secluded seats, , somewhat apart, and listened to the music which had made the restaurant so famous and qi X repaid its owner well. How happy Martell must have been, since he could eat his fill and K, play piano to his heart's desire! Of course, the program was the same as those of yore- L some six or seven waltzes by Chopin, the Melodic in E by Rubenstein, and, in addition, f on all holidays, the Spring Song and the Tarantellel' by Mendelssohn. Xe As we were seated yet, there entered one who must have seen far better days. More 0' 'I X like a stranded actor than ought else he seemed. I saw with sorrow it was IrIutchinson, who, when he felt that he was recognized, drew himself proudly up, and did not deign to look at us. As we were leaving-to go on our way, a clumsy farmer's wagon halted at the door, and Percy Rex leaped from the driver's seat. I-Ie entered the restaurant, and said to the proprietor: Can I sell you anything in the vegetable line to-day? 'With characteristic force Martell replied: Away with your shoddy goods! I give my customers only the best English provisions, and they know it. English provis- ions are like English books, and everything else English-the best of their kind. And Rex departed, a sadder and a wiser OD man. As we went on our way my guide thus spake to me: Thou seest, friendship's soon forgotten, when, alas, each man could help another in lifels journey, but thy classmates are not all estranged. Many are still as intimate as in the days gone by and work together for their mutual profit. I need but mention R. C. Smith, the widely-known divorce attorney, together with the Rev. Dr. Hope, D. D., Ph.D., LL.D. and S. T. D. A fact concerning Dr. Hope is, every time that he performs the marriage ceremony he gives the happy couple, with his blessing, the card o-f Lawyer Smith, 'to keep for future reference,' as he says, Likewise Smith pays the Rev. Doctor fair commission upon each case he wins. Such charity is rare upon the earth. Even as he spoke, we drew near a platform, round which a 'crowd was gathered. A temperance lecturer held IOI I their close attention. Wfith eloquence and force he praised the virtues of cold water, and bade his hearers shun the demon, drink. Need I say it was Chipley? The multitude was moved by his oration, and many were in- duced to sign the pledge, amongst whom were McIlvaine and Graeff. On the outskirts of the crowd I saw our old friend Longwell, drinking eagerly each word that fell from the speaker's lips. Wlhether the draft was too much for him, or whether mere emotion overcame him, I know not, but I saw him lean against a lamp-post for support, and in a moment more he lay upon the ground. An impudent policeman, whom I recognized as Corson, then drew' near, and was about to lay rough hands on Longwell. Indignantly I thrust hinr back, and cried: 'fXNhat, fellow, would you heat a man thus by emotion overcome? I am too full for utterance! So is he! replied the policeman, with a grin, as he took possession of the prostrate form. Horritied, said to my guide: Let us hasten from this dreadful scene. justice is dead, and Tyranny is rampant on the earth. VVe drew near a bridge leading over the muddy stream, and as we reached the foot of this same bridge I saw two idlers standing near, who proved to be Bell and Cross. At the same moment there approached a man, who seemed to be a missionary. In spite of his long black coat and ancient hat of silk, I knew that it was Cresson. He approached his former classmates and began to chide them gently, saying: Shame upon you, to stand about idling your lives away! Do you not know that you have duties to perform? Are you not aware that every man hasna mission in life? XNell, tell us, what is yours? asked the audacious Bell. My missionf' responded Caleb, loftily, Nmy mission is to remind other people that they have missions. Read this little tract on 'I-Iow to Make the Most of Lite., It will do you good. And with that he walked away. My guide then led me over the bridge, and through the town we bent our steps. Ere long, the Spirit pointed to a building which appeared like a county jail in miniature. The sign displayed in front announced: JAMES XVILLARD, B. S. PREPARATORY SCI-IOOL FOR BOYS This is a sad placef' said my guide. Jim Wfillard has an innocent look, but is a very tyrant with his boys. As none of them are tall enough to beat him, they all must suffer and endure in peace. I-Iis two assist- IO2 ants, Alvin Kriebel and Meyer, encourage and participate in all his tyranny. Let us enter and inspect as much as they permit. My guide knocked thrice, the door was carefully unbarred by Meyer, who ushered us into jim XWillard's room, and as the Spirit was about to question him, we heard some one approach. Professor Kriebel entered then, dragging a Amiserable little P, D wretch by one arm. Your Excellency, said he to Vlfillard, I want this rascal Sf Q to be deprived of his dinner for a weekf' Wl1at has he done?U asked Willarcl. I Inq '1,, He asked me if marriage was a failure! HMake it a month!! roared VVillard, S .B furiously. And I knew that he was married. Kriebel retreated with the culprit, -. I and soon there resounded in the hall a wild, unearthly blast. This was executed ' f A' A A' Im, on Kriebel's bass-tuba, to announce the dinner to the school. As visitors were I 1 I I not allowed to see what the poor creatures wereigiven to eat, the Spirit and I ' 1 ' 4' withdrew. I 4' - I 3 As we went on, the Spirit moralized: Such are the men who most maintain N I . the old traditions of their youth. Qthers are likewise impotent to leave the ' , early ruts. Such men are Lawson, Morrison and Moses, the famous trio of the y I, Wfharton School. Since their childhood they have lived on dry statistics, but Q' . now they have changed the fare for wet ones. They wish to ascertain what trade the taverns and saloons enjoy, and hence they station themselves nightly at the doors of the saloons, and count the men, women and children who may enter. They ask the age, height, weight and politics of each, and then make out reports. At frequent inter- vals their own names appear upon their listsQ The Spirit's words were interrupted by a mighty shout. Wie turned to learn its cause, and saw an orator addressing wildly a numerous throng, congregated about a platform. It was Kuemmerle, the valiant Democrat, preaching Free Silver in the manner of his college days. For the fourth consecutive time, not daunted by his three defeats, VVilliam I. Bryan was the candidate for the Presidency, and on the same ticket was Dibble, for Governor of Pennsylvania. But notwithstanding the splendid efforts of Kuemmerle, there was little hope for either candidate, since Solomon was conducting the campaign. X1Vhen Kuemmerle had finished his harangue, Katz took IO3 his place, and made a plea for more economy in carrying o-n the Government, but uttered sentiments which seemed distasteful to the crowd. Wfe had not time to linger here, but hurried on, and as we hastened, we perceived two well-attired men go past, and likewise noticed that they caused much comment and discussion from the passers-by. These, said the Spirit, looking back, are Stilz and Pemberton, who now are better known Q as Philadelphia's Fashion-Plates. The Prince of VVales himself would not pre- . sume to wear a garment that did not enjoy the sanction of this most exclusive 1 xx 5 pair. Such is their fame and glory on the earth. Yet there are others, scarcely K X less renowned. As he spoke a coach dashed by, behind which ran admiring ' f - hosts of boys, all cheering loudly for de Phillies. It was, in fact, our local v X X I base ball club, and in their midst were Wfilhelm and joe Huston, both of whom, X v my guide declared, were carving out the thorny road to immortality. VVe now drew near an edifice, and paused. The Spirit said: Let us enter, for you shall see some friends and hear of more within these walls. 'Wfe crossed R Q. the threshold and I found myself within an auction-room, where a great sale of J books was going on. The auctioneer T first observed, and recognized the orator of '98, E. S. McGrath, whose splendid gifts seemed destined to no higher flights than where I found him. Even as we entered he was offering to a crowd a wretched, time-stained volume worth twenty cents at most, and yet a wild and reckless bidder raised the price till it was his at seven dollars. Of course it was james Langstroth, who always entertained the view that books were precious in proportion to their mean and soiled appearance. My guide and I took seats to listen to the further progress of the sale. The auctioneer continued, Gentlemen, the next lot is a pair of novels, The Amethystine Hyacinth' and 'The Iridescent Pansy,' by George Elliott. Mr. Elliott was formerly a friend of mine, and the books are no worse than :The Green Car- nation' or 'The Heavenly Twins. How much am I offered? But no one spoke, and Langstroth took the books for fifteen cents, to save the reputation of the class. The sale went on. The next lot, said McGrath, is a most valuable book, fThe Bluffer's Breviaryg or, How to Go Through College VVithout Study,' by Arthur H. Gerhard. This book is invaluable to college men. Mr. Gerhard is the greatest living authority on the sub- 104 ject of bluffing, and his book has seen twelve editions. XIVIIZLI do you offer?', The bids ran high, and Gerhard's book became a feature of the sale. The last work that I offer to'-day, continued McGrath, is the famous 'Wfhat I Know About Books,' in twelve volumes, by A. S. XV. X. Y. Z. Rosenbach, official bargain-hunter for the library of the University of Pennsylvania. The gifted author is here to-day, and should see his work bring a good pricef, And, indeed, there sat the portly Rosenbach, whom I had not identified before, because his form had lost all sense of mere dimension, and had developed at its own sweet will to most inenviable rotundity. His work sold well, which seemed to please him greatly. But now the sale was over for the day, and my guide and I withdrew in search of further sights. Wfe walked on through the streets, and once the Spirit pointed to a pair of sombre individuals, who appeared to be at odds with all the world, and to entertain a grudge against mankind. These, said he, are Levett and Swift, the agents of the Law and Order Society. They spend their days and nights in searching trouble, but both pre- 'Q AF, -S fer to find it ready-made. Our time grows short, we cannot stay to question f 'RK them. Here is a place which we must visitf' 1 X . X I turned and gazed upon the structure which he nieant. It was the side- , X- show of a circus. Before the door stood E. WI. Kriebel, wearing a flashy tie L5 -f N, and heavy chain, the evident proprietor of the establishment, giving directions 1 X' 'NXT ' X ' to the ticket-chopper, Wfest, through whom we gained admission. VVe found I X among the strange attractions in the hall a few of interest here. Upon'a plat- xg X X form was a man breaking rocks and bending iron bars. This was Sandow - X15 Swartley-the second Samson-the Strong Man from North IfVales. He did 'Xp' ' f not pause to look among his audience, but steadily kept at his task, as if his highest aim in life was battering Belgian blocks. A petrified man occupied i the neighboring stage. He neither spoke nor moved, but seemed suspiciously L L- like Mills. Afancy dance, wherein a certain Bartlett gave an exhibition of 'I .III-Q -I VD his skill, commanded our attention. The maitre-de-ballet I recognized at once as Remington. Ah, what a falling off is here! the Spirit said, this 0116, Whom all thought would some day be the pastor of St. Barbara's Hock, has 105 sunk so low as this! But that was not the worst by far. A sadder injstance loomed before my eyes. VVithin a corner, quite apart, and seated at a table was one dressed in a black gown, variously adorned with cross-bones, skulls and other quaint device. A peaked cap, with a tassle, on his head, made up his strange array. Mysterious and uncanny instruments lay all about, and on a placard near at hand I read: PROFESSOR BURTIE - HOROSCOPES CAST NATIVITIES CALCULATED FHRENOLOGY AND PALMTSTRY CONSULT THE PROFESSOR ON BUSINESS AND LOVE AFFAIRS Yes, it was Easton! That star of the first magnitude in the constellation of '98, that apex of our pyramidal structure, that parabolical paradox whose genius followed the two bents of Wlagnerian opera and astronomy in lines never to meetg that corporeal projection of the fourth dimension in terms of terrestrial space, was here, a mere fortune teller in a circus hall! The thought was over-powering. My senses left me, and T fell upon the ground, even as a dead body falls. Wfhen T recovered T found myself in a chemist's shop, my guide still standing by. A physician, whom T recognized as VVatson, was bending over me, and seemed most anxious for my welfare. I looked about in won- der, till the Spirit told me where we were. This is the famed establishment of Oglesby and Ebaugh. They both have international reputations. It was but last month that Ebaugh, in fDie Zeitschrift fur den Physikal- ischen und Chemischen Unterricht,' wrote an excellent paper on 'Die 148 Bacteria die Man im Schuylkill W'as- ser Findetf Even as he spoke, a solemn, melancho-ly man, wearing a damp expression, came in, and approaching Dr. VVatson, said, with a feeble smile, Anything in my line to-day? Tt was Haney, and he was an under- taker, apparently on the best of terms with Dr. Wfatson. T felt they were a pair to be avoided, and besought my guide to take me hence. He acquiesced and we departed. But soon we stopped once more, this time before a structure, where a large sign read: THE LADIES' HOME JOURNAL 106 M We entered and found the editorial rooms. jab Brinton had become the editor-in-chief, and was the delight of an admiring public. I-Ie was now preparing for the journal a Life of Pomp, the Head Coachman of Provost Smithf' Nor had Ruth Ashmore departed. She was still with the journal, in the person of lhfilliam A. Mc- Clenthen, the man of ingenious adjectives. I watched him as he wrote his famous column, and on the paper be- fore him read as follows: NTAUDIE-XYOL1 seem to be a delightfully orthodox person. The best treatise on Ritual is the Ritual Use or St. Clement the Martyr. MARGUERITE,-Your letter was excrnciatingly funny. See my remarks on the necessity of artifieiality in the answer to Mabel. W'rite again. DAISY-It is not considered good form to admire Wagner. His theories are abominable. Grieg is the greatest of modern musicians. Such were the old familiar strains McClenthen wrote! ,-'N . . . . . . . . . . , re X In a corner sat a long-haired individual, in the agonies of composition, attempting to reduce Q5'Q5',x9 a chaos of words into a sonnet. It was Paxson, the bard of '98 The expected poem did not X1 How as spontaneously as was necessary, so Paxson clipped one of his old Red and Blue ef- !-1' . forts for insertion in the next journal. We felt that much was happening in that is U . ' Z office not intended for the vulgar eye, so we withdrew and traced our weary course a I . 2 little further. ,X . . ,.,.. . I The Spirit led me to a court-room, where judge Charles S. Langstroth sat upon l' , forms were Sinkler, Brown, and Stitzer, all oblivious of the outer world. My guide explained the case before the court. The prisoner you will recognize as Sohm, quite famous now for his notorious deeds, and he who makes complaint is Orr, who dwells afar in rural districts. And there is one named joseph Russell Smith, who shall at- l tempt to make defense for Sohm's misdeedsf' We stood apart and heard poor Orr , yo relate how he came down to town to buy some seed, and met the prisoner, who the bench. Likewise, I saw a weary jury, most asleep, and among the slumbering 7' jj N-. V f-'Q proved most affable, and soon produced three cards and showed friend Orr an inter- ,Q - ,- esting game, namely, to pick out a certain card. Then Orr went on to say how bets e 'tff .:1'f' were made, and when he lost his roll of notes he ventured to suspect, and so on through the old, old game. The case seemed hopeless for the prisoner, when Smith got up to make the grand defense. Your I-Ionor, gentlemen of the jury, ladies and gentlemen, and others, by way of preface let me say IO7 rl that I know that 1ny client is guilty, but I believe I can prove to the satisfaction of Ibis court that he is innocent. 'Wlfhat do you mean? cried Langstroth, springing up, this is contempt of courtly' The jury woke and rushed out of the box and sought to lay rough hands on Smith. The spectators joined in the fray. My guide and I were rudely knocked aboutg we sought escape, but could not reach the door. Moreover, night had fallen and the room was growing dark. Suddenly the Spirit drew nie to his side and pointed to a dini and narrow passage way, unnoticed by the rest, through which we passed at length, and after many windings and delays we issued in the outer world to rebehold the stars. ,-, Q, 4. 4, xg. eq, 4, ,-, .g, 4. .g, .g, .1.

I tell the story of the Ivy here: Emblem of parting and of ended sight, Emblem of loss of Friendship in its height, Emblem of leaving all We hold most dear.

IO9 Our lives, together in this past begun, I Shall each take part of each and each extend Itself in all through all-so we are one.

For we hear the voice of life's awakening, And we know that as we lived in vanished time, So together to our work we steadfast cling, And together view the heights toward which we climb We together live as one, together bring, Our united love unto the end sublime.

Yea, reader, we were verily a noble band, well girded for the battle, and justly stout of heart. Had we not jim', Langstroth a Tower of Brass, whom none dare oppose? Had we not in Isadorus Merzbacher a brain unmatchable? Wfho in social grace was the equal of our Lord Harry Bart QU. LQ, fresh from the academic banks of the Cam? 'Where could be found such another Damon and Pythias as Pax and Rexg who in all the land was such a horsey blood as Ralph Vtfilsong where might one see another worm Ci. e. book-wormj like Rosenbach, or in what clime did then live such a daring devil as Wfaring' Parks-a niinister's son? Backed by such an imposing array of talent, Freshman year in the arts started out, as might have been ex- pected, amid great rejoicing. Billy Lucas, the Unicollar, our candidate for class presidency, was elected by an overwhelming majority, and Randy Faries pronounced our whole section to be the Hmost likely set of young IIS athletes he had ever laid eyes on. More than this, even Cand, remember, it was a great deal for Randy to praise anybody but himselfj the serene old gentleman, with snow-white Anacreontic locks and Howing Hora- tian cravat, was so captivated by our rare promise that in the eordiality of his welcome, he nearly over- turned the classic and dust-laden table with crystal feet, thereby greatly endangering his bottle of smelling salts, which, if tradition errs not, was used with great effect by Cicero at the trial of Cluentius. I In addition, however, to the classics Qand some even did not take them, being led from the paths of virtue by the tempting fruitiness of Rennert, the 'iParisian sportwj we all took history and mathematics, for the very good reason that we could not help ourselves. In the first term, Clio, incarnated as a certain Cheyney, taught us the names and naughty deeds of the several spouses of Henry the Eighth. In the second term this same lady played a 'oke on us bv mast ueradino' in the form of a Hman of Jainted i , s l 3 witf' named Thorpe, who made us buy a baby's colored picture book 23-,A of his own composition, and then gave us a three-hours' course in what Dean Swift is pleased to call the 'ldestructive pestilence, crying sin X and woful practicel' of PUNNING, and which, alas, had such an E V of effect on Isidorus Cwhose only principle is Surpass your teachersuj that MJ the poor boy was soon ruined for life, and can now only be approached xxx with the greatest caution. The real Evil Angel, however, of those otherwise pleasant youth- s ' ful days was a creature named Hallett, to whom was consigned the hon- .6 lfxao lC:E-- orable task of imparting to us the somewhat exclusive sciences of algebra and the 'ometries That he was a genius no one of us ever ! S L doubted, from the moment we first saw him. Eagle visaged was he and X i .E A ' 'A 'MMF Jr' Thersitesllike, I B ' . Sparse hairs bestrewed his desert-mounted patef, Pomp told us that his only diet was cigarettes, and forf deemenshuns, but despite this we soon found that he was a hard and uncommunicative, though talkative man. Wfe bravely struggled against the rushing tide of Indetermi- nates and Differentials,'lustily cursing betimes Gauss and Napier from the bottom of our hearts, but, alas, for many of our number the struggle was in vain. Wfe all paled and sickened when Eebruary drew near, and when at last the smoke of battle had cleared away, we found many of our faithful comrades wounded to the death and few that were not severely injured. IIQ Though our ranks had been thinned while we were Freshies, Sophomore year brought us such noble speci- mens of the Hgenus humana that we soon forgot those who had fallen by the wayside in our delight at welcoming the genial personages of Arthur Gerhard, from Yale, Shorty McGrath, from Haverfordfg Frank Swartley, the Man of Iron, from Barnumis circus, and Burton Easton, the master of all trades, from the vulgar ranks of science Of these four the two former had left their respective institutions as martyrs to the good cause, while Frank had escaped from Barnum's while exhibiting at North Wfales, and Burton had learnt in one year all the science that was offered in the university, and now wished to follow the paths of a gentler refinement. As Sopho- mores, we met with many queer experiences. Space and language are both wanting to picture our diversions in Physics Class under the eye of one beastly Tat -Csurnamed Tatnallj. or to tell of the many happy hours that arts spent in mastering the mysteries of the House of l7umes,', where jay Bird Moyer, master of the labor atory, drilled us in the art of bursting test tubes Cfor which he got one cent commission.j Tn fact, jay Bird himself was the mystery-in-chief, and once he was mastered, a life of luxury lay before the successful young chemist. Everything was then his-the floor to lie on and snooze-the windows out of which to squirt Water on passers-by- the co-eds to whom to make love, etc., etc., ad libitum. The result was, as you might expect, that arts profited greatly by her course in chemistry. The same might also be said of our work in the gymnasium, with a man named Noble flucus a non lucendoj, who tried to plant us in rows and compel us to do the windmill act and make Salaams at his feet Cughlj. Of course we objected to this, with hurlings and burlings and mighty shouts, and when the matter was brought before the Academic Council, Gerhard was compelled to brand Noble a base liarl' and demand his immediate dismissal. Misplaced leniency prevented this request from being carried out, but it was noticeable that from then till june Cwhen Noble got his final G. B. as gymnasium masterj he occ.asioned us no further trouble. No account of '98 in the arts would be complete without a word or two about the sorry-looking, red-haired ani- mal to whom, as Sophs, we were compelled to submit lucubrations of our ready pens-by name, Homer, the Smith. Suffice it to say that this reid man, under the pretense of teaching us rhetorical expression, attempted to popularize his native vernacular, which, to say the least, was not suited to the elite of '98 The raving Gibbonitish Giant, with his perpetual Look it up! also caused quite a diversion in Sopho- more year. XlVllO will ever forget the demonical antics he performed when Gerhard, in simulated innocence, trans- lated devorsorium'i as boarding-house? Wfho will forget the anger that would overspread his swarthy coun- tenance when, after looking sternly at Gerhard and Parks, and saving in 'L loud voice There are two gentlemen zs . m C v C mi in this room whose attention to their studies leaves much to be desired. These two Gentlemen in 1:i0'hteous 6 7 2: I2O indignation, would turn violently in their chairs and gaze with frowning looks upon Merzbacher and Mills. Old jackson was another noteworthy feature of the year-in fact, of every year, but particularly in Sopho- more year, because he had just recovered from his decennial attack of catarrh of the spleen, and his sarcasm or gout was on that account unusually biting. I-Ie had one favorite only-Arthur Gerhard, of course Che was everybody's favoritej-who attended the same church at Ardmore, and whose uncle was the old gentleman's physician, as well as former pupil. These were very strong points, for at the opening of every hour Arthur, after explaining zz Qfor Mondaysj, that he had left his book at college, or b ffor Wfednesdaysj, that he had studied the wrong lesson, or c-Cfor Fridaysj, that he had been seriously ill, would have a pleasant chat on subjects of mutual interest and take his seat among the non paratif, Qnce, however, owing to Dr. Gerhard's having failed in his daily visit, the old man decided to wreak his revenge on the nephew, and accordingly, after listening to excuse a, as per schedule, asked in his cruelest tones, Mi: Ger- hard, do you never take any books home?'l As a result, Arthur recited UD on the following Wfednesday, but it was his first and last attempt. Capricornus listened with patience while he wrestled with Persius, and when he had concluded remarked: Mit Gerhard, I thought that Mr. Parks had made as many mistakes as were possi- ble'when he tried to translate that passage, but it appears that you have made even more? Schwatt taught us analytics in Sophomore year, and made himself quite popular by evincing a continual hunger for ham sandwiches,', which must be brought immediately by the i'doomest fellow in the class, from the University Restaurant. 'This event, with attending incidents Qsuch as Boice's dropping the sandwich, in his haste, and then stepping on it,-which made no difference to the doctorj, always occupied the greater part of the hour. . In junior year we were fed upon logic and ethics by Fullerton, and as a result of the sophistry thus incul- cated, immorality grew and waxed fat in the class, and consciences 'fwere seen no more throughout the land? Consequently, we soon grew very fond of Fullerton, and when, at last, he cast aside his Hrst love, Barbara C. Larent, to take unto himself a 'fbetter half, we tendered him dainty tokens of our affection, in the shape of ox- hearts, strung on arrows, and little dolly Pennsylvania boys and girls, clasping arms upon his desk. Gudeman also became known to us in junior year and a very merry time we had with him, but as the Record Committee have unanimously decided to roast him wellv in a separate article, his name will not incumber these pages. In Senior year many of us donned the Philosopher's Robe and pored our Aristotle and I-Iobbes under the enlightening eye of VVilly Newbold. Martell soon discovered that if you screwed Wfillyls chair up to thc top I2I I 4, before he came in, little VVilly could not sit down upon it, Swartley, that Philip was the son of Macedong Mc- Clenthen, that he was an atheist, Kriebel, that he was an assg and Longwell, that Newbold marked you present if you got in before twenty minutes after twelve. Schelling, in his course on the Century's Singersf' read us a disjointed and incoherent set of lectures, com- piled with bad taste from the works of john Addington Symonds, Vifalter Pater and Matthew Arnold, and like- wise furnished us, free of charge, a bi-weekly seminar where, at his house, except when the baby had croup, we smoked his tobacco and gave him our views on the morality of the poets. Once, however, Rosenbach went too far and objected to the polygamy of one of Kipling's heroes and was immediately called a prude Qimaginel Rosen- bach a prudej. VVell, he got in his revenge by reading us at the following recitation a sensational essay on Wfalt Vlfhitman, particulars of which will not bear print. But we must not forget to record Schellingfs wonderful dis- covery. 'That grand old philosopher, Hed'on! he once exclaimed, in poetic rapture, but alas, that all that is known of Mr. Hedon, phil. It also appeared, upon inquiry by Haney, that he had read and relished a poem by Swinburne which never existed and whose title had been maliciously fabricated by Rosenbacli. However, Schell- ing made up for his little failings among the poets by his course on the dramatists. Verily, it was a bird, Haney read over seven thousand plays in preparation, and all the rest of us read in proportion down to Gerhard, who read three acts of Hamlet.', And so it was, fair reader, that the arts of '98- whom to know was a liberal education, grew up under alma mater's,' care into the noblest band of youths that ever stood upon life's threshold, and if Pennsylvania is grieving at the loss which she is now about to sustain, let her comfort herself with the ennobling thought that she has given to the world an offspring who will never cease to honor her name and who will ever uphold mid friend or foe the banner of the LiberalArts. ,Ml All INTERVIEW WITH lbvulv .,Q.

He can't manage the class at all. I , Brinton- And he never commands any respect from the class. The Dean- Mr Brinton, there are some natures, in which respect for anything or anybody is a foreign qual- Ity. Have you ever heard the story of the impresario of an opera company traveling in the VVest, who was oblig-- ed to come on the stage with a pistol and threaten to shoot the next man who threw peanuts in the prima don- na's mouth, while she was singing?

Let's wait and see. In Germany when the students misbehave, they are shut up in the cellar-of the town jail, and I don't know but what I'll send the whole lot of you up to Thirty-seventh street. Good morning, gentlemen. Qlixit the suppliants. Fullerton forgets all about it, as no report comes from Tatnall, and the matter ends.

So great is the value of our intellectual progress and advancement! I I25 I The knob turns! All eyes intent upon the door! Slowly it opens, and from out the gloom emerges-what words could describe that apparition? VVhat description would not fail in its duty? This perfect vision of neatness and beauty glides noiseless across the floor toward the chair that stands invit- ingly behind the desk, and, sinking down within its protecting arms, gives forth a sigh of happiness and content. The greater labor of the day is o'erg now for the less'on. VX7ith a truly Delsartean motion the shapely feet, in- cased in the most spotless of patent leathers, are elevated to a commanding position upon the desk, while the 'fThird Turn-Ups of the Checks hang listlessly in the still of expectation that pervades the room. That shirt! Ay, truly, would it sham the Nile's most emerald hue, whilst the tie, even among Aurora's brightest rays, would scarce find a rival worthy! ' There is a slight movement as one daintily-gloved hand reaches forth and carelessly abstracts a letter from the pile of mail lying before. Then again all is still, except for an occasional remark not, it is to be hoped, ad- dressed to the writer of the letter-in-hand. In Pacibus is its password in this life, and the scrap basket alone can add the 'fRequiescat. Another and yet another is opened. Alas, in the first glance their fate, too, is sealed. At last, however, a gleam of pleasure lights Professor Rennert's eyes. Ah, here is a new catalogue just published by Scartofretti, containing a complete list of all the modern extant Italian literature. Perhaps one of you gentlemen might like to look at it. Mr. Rosenback, have you seen this? UNO, sir, I donlt think I have,'l and with unusual alacrity that gentleman comes forward and gingerly takes hold of the proffered book as one might handle some priceless piece of old china, then, gaining courage at the touch, he opens it and is soon absorbed in a minute examination of its contents, if perchance he may possibly find some book as yet unread by him. My, but I have gotna headache to-day, I can hardly see to read. Mr. I-Ianey, will you be kind enough to open a window at the back of the room, it is insufferably close in here, and after these few but much-needed changes have taken place, Mr, Langstroth, do you happen to know where the lesson is to-day?', 'fIt begins on page II3, professor, and takes to 235 inclusive,'l is that gentleman's answer. Oh, yes. Let me see. 'All preterite past subjunctive participles, ending in a masculine noun change oi, ai, oe and ue to u and ae in the penult before all adverbs, conjunctions and prepositions except the following: 'Mezzo, invece, vicino, dopoche, sopra, fino, torno, terza and senzaf do they not, Mr. Bacon?', Mr. Bacon, answering glibly, Yes, sir. Por the next few minutes there is a lull, while Professor Rennert hastily peruses the contents of the grammar to see if all be correctly stated, then, closing the book with a snap: 126 Gentlemen, begin at page 236 next time and take 137 pages more. Read it over seven or eight times, anyway, so that you get it fixed firmly in your minds. Now, where does the reading commence? Page 145? Thank you, Mr. Elliott! XIVIIO thinks he can read a little here? Mr. Easton? All right, but be careful to read it slowly and try and pronounce distinctly. Mr. Easton, reading-''Allorimpenserlireligiomenteandarunquediquellopeccavolinisopralungapromessacolliat- tenei '.... .............. ................ . . .................. . . ................. Scorlasitendasparettionell'tnttidegniPERYOSCAVIO- LETTI!!!!!', . A long gasp for breath follows, taking advantage of which Professor Rennert foxily suggests that Mr. Easton translate for a change, while the class heave a unanimous sigh of relief and vainly endeavor to recover the place in their books, some hunting on one page, some on another, in hopes of accidentally lighting upon the last word, which is still ringing in their ears. just as Mr. Easton is about to begin translating Professor Rennert breaks in, I-Ias any gentleman here the correct time? O, thank you, Mr. XWatson, and he proceeds to set his previously-correct time-piece at whatever hour has been maliciously suggested by the student in question. Then, seeing that there is but ten minutes left in which to accomplish anything, he rises, and, picking up hat and cane, moves toward the door. I am very sorry, gentlemen, but I have a most important engagement, so I shall have to ask you to excuse meg take an addi- tional forty-nine pages next time, and with this sad farewell he departs, the door closing behind -him. Is it a smile that flickers feebly around the mouths of one or two? Perhaps the dim recollection of Professor Gibbons and his classes might account for it, who can say? One by one they slowly rise and pass through the door. All are gone, not a sound is to be heard. Silence reigns supreme, and a hush falls upon the empty room. The sun still continues to cast its beams upon the de- serted Hoor, but Italian, the language of the Gods, has gone to rest once more!

The knob turns, the glass door opens, if 1 A X' f and there enters the daintiest little Dutch philologist in all the world, Alfred Gudeman, Ph.D. Ah, the very sight of him is a revelation of neatness and comfort. He is a short and gently-curving man, like Falstaff, with 'fsomething of a round bellyf' his face is full, and, I regret to say, voluptu- ous Cdue to his continual reading of Gudeman's Expurgated Passages of the Classicswjg his head is very round and shiny, save where a few sparse black hairs are plastered stiftly upon his pate with odoriferous bear's grease. I-Ie Wears a celluloid collar, spotlessly clean, and a blue cross cravat with white stripes, which H. Langstroth one day discovered was' likewise celluloid, thereby explaining the hitherto unsolved mystery of How I wear the same cravat continuously for two consecutive years PH 129 .. lt goes without saying that his spotless shirt is of the same material. As already suggested, he hath an excellent stomach, which is well protected against the stilettos of its enemies by what appears at first sight to be a large plate of brass a foot and a half long by half a foot broad, but which is really nothing but a specially-made and dis- gracetully-large badge of Phi Beta Kappa, which he purchased at Columbia lor the price of two years' leg-pulling, much to the discredit of this otherwise honorable institution. Gutsy', tfor so he is universally known among his loving pupilsj walks at once with dainty tread to his desk, and, pulling out of the drawer a copy of Tacitus, opens at the lesson and sits like the spider, ready to pounce upon the first unwary fly that enters his parlour. Presently the bell rings and the Hy enters, in the shape of Merz- bacher, who was never known to be a minute late for any hour since he entered college. The pair at once start it upf, regardless of the rest of the class. who gradually stroll in amid great confusion and many complimentary shouts ot O Goody, You dirty toad, etc., etc., from behind the glass partition. In about tive minutes, when the class is comfortably seated and the door closed, a terrible noise of thundering footsteps is heard in the hall, and Gerhard and Brinton, in frantic haste, chagrined at the thought of losing a word of the lesson, burst into the room like a cyclone and immediately make a dive for the only unoccupied chair, which stands in the far corner of the room. tAsk Gerhard why it was the 07Z0' one.j Both arrive at the same time, which causes complications. Gutsy is compelled to notice the disturbance, and rushes up and down the room, waving his hands and exclaim- ing: 'fGemmen, these are the most uproarious actions that ever occurred within these walls. I shall resort to the most severe measures. The dean shall be informed of this, geninien, etc., etc. Gerhard knows his man, how- ever, and saves the day by accusing Professor Gibbons of having removed the other chair, and by immediately bringing in one from Schwatt's room, and thus harmony jnrofcm is restored and recitation be.gins again. Mistah Mills, begin-Est in insula Qceani castum nemus, dicatunique in eo vehiculum veste contectumf' Mills reading at sight - There is a grove cast in the island of Oceani. and there is said to be in it a wagon C D Cv , b covered with a vest. Gutsy-Very good, Mr. Mills, you are showing many signs of improvement. Mistah Kriebel, will you go on? Mox vehiculum et vestis, et, si, credere velis, numen ipsum secreto lacu abluitur. - Kriebel ta little shakyj-Soon the wagon and the vest, and, it you will believe it, the goddess herself are washed in secreted milkf' The class bursts into a roar. jim Langstroth waves his arms about his head and slaps his thighs with great noise, while Gudey gives a prolonged Tee-hee-hee-hee,U and when quiet is at last obtained, viciously asks Kriebel 130 if he has ever seen a goddess washing herself in secreted milkf, VVilbur blushes scarlet, which greatly tickles Gutsy, who, after explaining that secrete lacu means a hidden lake, proceeds to translate the next passage him- self, under the impression that it requires a scholar's judgment, and oh, the hash Ca favorite word of his in trans- lating-query, why ?j he makes of it. Behold a sample exhibition of the result of his critical and philological acu- men. Gudey- You may, ah, perceive, gemmen, that I have, ah, introduced a few emendations into this passage, which, ah, I blush for modesty, have never suggested before. Teuffelsclnvabewarich was, indeed, on the right track, but he died before he arrived at the remarkably simple and scholarly interpretation which it has, ah, fallen to my lot to present to you. I have examined seven thousand eight hundred and four similar passages in Tacitus, and have come to the unmistakable conclusion that whenever our author uses the word facile he meant to use difficile, and wherever he has used the word Muon, he meant to omit it. You will ind a full discussion of this subject in my forthcoming monologue in the Americana-Germanica, of which you will all please procure copies and--'I But, alas, at this point poor Gudey's interesting monologue is cut short by a disturbance in the back part of the room, where it appears that Brinton has just succeeded in tying Gerhard firmly to his chair with a piece of clothes line. Gerhard resents the deprival of his liberty of action with loud shouts, and is immediately ordered to leave the room, which he at once proceeds to do with the greatest pleasure and alacrity, taking the chair with him. In fact, the situation grows quite dramatic, and peace is only restored by the severing of the ropes and the peremp- tory dismissal of Gerhard to the dean's ofhce. Brinton soon follows, despite the efforts of Gutsy to restrain him, and they have scarce reached the stairs when the bell rings and the class is dismissed. But now, gentle reader, let us drop for a moment the curtain of our imagination, let us imagine that stately Clio and the shade of Tacitus have left the Muses palace, and that their places have been taken by Euterpe and the sweetly-piping Theocritus. Let us then fly thither on the wings of our fancy and visit for a moment more our old friend Gutsy. Things are pretty much the same as ever, but, alas, there is no Gerhard-ergo, there is little jol- lit .' Merzbacher now cavils 'tt pleasure over the weird constructions, which Gudey manufactures to excuse his y C . C many Hlapsi linguaef' Levett upsets his repeated only occurrence of this word in all literature, gemmen,'l by numerous quotations containing the word in question. Brinton tickles him by reading the expurgated passages from his edition of 1610 KP. S. All expurgations, according to Gutsy, are needless, and generally contain the pith of the whole passageuj. Langstroth angers him by stating his opinion in a loud voice that the bee could not have 131 'I stung Cupid on each Enger, because, to his positive knowledgef' a bee can sting once, and once only, and causes him to reply with the severest sarcasm: Ah! Mr. Langstroth, but you must remember that this is a The- oeritean beef, This reply so worries jim Langstroth that in revenge he resorts to his old trick of opening the door and rush- ing violently into the hall under pretense that he had heard some one knock, only to return with great noise five minutes later and spend another five in shutting the door, opening the window and getting fixed to his seat. Thus it was that the hard hours with Gudey were wliiled away, and what would otherwise have been a very hitter pill was comfortably coated with the sugar of amusement. 5 h E493 1 55 Marion Dexter Learned is a man who teaches German, without a drop of German blood in his veins. There are rumors that in the German University he took honors in the drinking bouts, but manuscript records are not sufficiently well amended to be trustf worthy. The University imported him from Johns Hopkins-why, we donlt know and canlt find out. But he came, and the first thing he did was to gather all the money he could lay hands on, with which he purchased the Beehstein Library. VVhen this collect- ion arrived he invited all his relatives and friends to a grand rece-ption, where he made four speeches, one in English, another in German, the third in Pennsylvania Dutchfiand the last, the greatest effort of all, i1l'3.'1'1'1lXfL1'1'G of these three languages, with a few inter- polated quotations from French and Latin. His musty books were deemed a contami- nation to the rest of the library, and were assigned a place in the catacombs beneath the library building, whither a few benighted students occasionally wend their way. At rare intervals Dr. Learned emerges from this subterranean abode and deigns to lecture to un- dergraduates o-n German literature. I-Te also gives a seminary course in Nineteenth Century German Lyrics. This is in two parts. The first deals with eighteenth century critical writings, the second treats of eighteenth century narrative poetry. This course is very popular fat the first 133 V l meetingj. The professor welcomes the ten or twelve assembled students with a smile and says: Gentlemen, I am pleased to see that so many students have Germanics at heart. Wfe are all Germans, only some of us don't know it, or won't acknowledge it. I hope to cover lots of ground this year. Before I begin I would like to men- tion a few books which you will find valuable. For reference and general work yo-u will refer to the fo-llowing: C.IfIere follows a list of three bio-graphical dictionaries, ive lexicons, six l'Iahresberichte and varied other imposi- tions on human good naturej. The following books you will read through: QI-Ie mentions six books on Ger- man metrics and eight histories of German literaturej. This last book is in ten volumes, but you need only read the last seven. They are all in German, by the way. I donlt believe in English books. VVhile I am about it, I may as well say I don't believe in anythin.g English. I will devote the rest of the hour to a lecture on the evo- lution of Father jahnls fTurnlieder,' from Klopstocks 'Messiasf CSO he doesj And yet, when the second hour in German lyrics comes around, and only four men report, Dr. Learned asks where the rest are! The doctor is editor-in-chief of a critical journal, Americana Germanicaf' not published in the interest of German emigrants who come to this country, as might be supposed. It is a magazine devoted to the publication of essay and miscellaneous papers which are refused by all other periodicals. It does this free of charge, and sends a copy gratis to each contributor, which are certainly indications of the liberal spirit in which the journal is con- ducted. Doctor Learned's ideas on English literature are too original to be omitted from any sketch of his life. I-Ie classifies all English works as good and bad. The good embraces Shakespeares plays. The doctor has also written an essay to show that Shakespeare was a German, and that the plays were originally written in Middle I-Iigh German. He admits that Milton and Spenser have an occasional felicitous passage, but he is also able to trace these to German originals. In a forthcoming work he will show how the very finest passages of Paradise Lost Qthere are a fewj were taken verbally from Goethe and Ereiligrath. It is safe to assert that if Doctor Learned does not bring his name prominently before the world by that work, it will not be his fault.

It was only a little room, just big enough for us, and Newbold, if he got there first, otherwise, there arise complications as to chairs. If the door was open, and the room empty, when we arrived, there was always a debate as to whether anyone ,had nerve enough to lock the class on the inside. Wfe actually tried it one day, and we thought it worked beautifully, but when Newbold arrived he never noticed it at all, and we felt fiat. Usually we were the hrst arrivals, Newbold being down stairs talking to his P. G. co-eds, and we had to wait to be let in. Did you ever see a class waiting for ten minutes to elapse before the professors arrival? Every man so afraid he will come? VVe had that art down beautifully. Wfe waited most gracefully, and our exactness in departing was alarming. By the time nine minutes and fifty-nine seconds had elapsed there were left no traces of the class, except the echoes of Horace Longwell's laugh. Many's the time Newbold failed us and then told us next time how very important his engagement had been. But consider us inside and the oak sportedg Brinton preparing for a doze behind the professor's back, and Swartley in the squeaky chair in the corner, where he can make faces at Kriebel, and the rest of the class disposed 135 il 1 about the room in various attitudes of comfort. Newbold, in his whirling rocking-chair, worries around his desk with a hopeless, puzzled expression. The class looks knowing. After various throes a pleased smile breaks over the little man's face, and he triumphantly produces an old ragged paper, which is the apology for the roll. It is a wonder he ever finds it, or anything else. All the space in the room is filled with inextricable piles of books, papers, empty tobacco boxes and Mrs. Newbold's umbrella. The professor asked us one day if he had loaned any of his books to any of us, for some reason he had not been able to hnd all his books lately, and he wondered where they were. The fifth volume of Plato might have been at the bottom of the pile behind the door, but it does not necessarily follow. The roll being called and A. C. Kriebel being informed that he is the only man in the class with no cuts, Newbold gives his chair a whirl, and, having arrived vis-a-w's with Swartley, begins quizzing him. Swartley thinks it does not apply in this case, but subsequent developments prove that F. li. knows nothing about any case and is merely dodging Newbold. Before anything more can be done, Arthur Gerhard walks in with a graceful bow and informs everybody in a stage whisper that he has merely been over at the Bartram for a little lunch, which means three Manhattan cocktails. Things proceed-gradually. Martell takes forty winks, Swartley wakes him up by laughing too heartily at Swift's awful scowls and facial contortions. Vlfhen Newbold threatens dire fates for the disturbers, Swartley consoles himself by helping Gerhard make an ass of Kriebel. Presently, with a tremendous racket, Horace Longwcll bursts into the room, unutterably late and looking as innocent and harmless as a dove. Newbold always asked Horace questions dealing with psychology, because he knew he took the subject, and then poor Horace would take refuge in cells and protoplasms, which were far too small to cover his discomforture. Newbold always did most of the talking, principally because no one else knew anything about the subject. l-le spent three weeks reading extracts from Plato, and enjoyed himself immensely. The attendance was good those weeks, because every one knew that his naps would be undisturbed. Vtfhen the professor quizzed us he would pleasantly and calmly prove to every one in the class that no one knew anything. After searching vainly for an answer, he would say: f'Young gentlemen,-now you fellows have missed the whole idea of this thing, and then start in to explain it. Theological subjects came up occasionally. and then McClenthen dodged around like a piece of popping corn, trying to have ideas, which he couldn't do anyway, and trying to make everything agree with his religious opinions. Newbold proved him a stoic one day, and he was so dismayed that he was not heard from again for some time. 136 There was one famous day, when jim VVillard cornered the professor, then the class howled with delight, and jim was the lion for a space of live minutes, when he spoiled it all by being cornered himself. Horace Long- well once tried to prove that nothing moved. He argued bravely, but Newbold riddled him by jumping around in glee at the thought of such an easy victim. Une time the question of a substratum came up, and we all professed blissful i.gnorance. Newbold stared in amazement, with the same expression that came over him when jab Brinton did not know all about the Nebular Hypothesis, and finally gasped: lNfhy, I know you fel-gentlemen had it with Dr. Singer last year. And it was true, we had had it, but we had always been unconscious of the fact before. Newbold always swore by Dr. Fullerton gp he told his stories-we had heard them all in the original-and advanced his arguments. Fullerton and Newbold, by the way, are Positivists. At least, Newbold says so, but Fullerton could probably prove him a liar if he tried. yVe had had Fullerton in logic and ethics in junior year, when we learned by logic how to prove in ethics that a man was a public benefactor, who could discover a way to outwit the devil. So we knew what Fullerton was like, and we always thought Newbold was afraid of him. Our little man advised us one day to try for post-graduate scholarships. He had a few odd lots on his hands, which had been applied for only from Beloochistan and the Corean Islands, and he thought we might like to take a few. We were very sorry, but Martel was the only infant prodi.gy in the class, and he was already supplied. Newbold's favorite delight was to ask the same question all around the class. Then what fun he had, and we too. It always was a question who had the most fun. 'When opinions were asked for, the class was positively hilarious. Swift, Meyer and Kriebel never had any opinion, Kriebel had never read that book, and Meyer and Swift never difl anything but take notes. Martell and Hope would have an opinion between them-where neither could get at it. Wfillard always waited until he saw a chance to corner the professor, and then he always missed the chance. Swartley thought 'fit sounded very reasonable, but he could not be certain. Gei-hard's resources never failed him, and he would evolve an opinion from his substratum, for jab Brinton to word in the style of a Pennsylvanian,' editorial. McClenthen always differed for difference's sake, and then, while he and jab argued away, Newbold would smile all over his beard. Longwell and Levett always had opinions, and such good ones that both the fellows got D's. Newbold always had an opinion, too, and probably several D's,' with lines between them, but nothing but a point-blank question would get any statement out of him. He always dis- missed us as soon as he had declared himself, also as soon as Mrs. Newbold appeared at the door-that individual was nevei to be kept waiting. Why this happened you must judge for yourself. But we always departed placidly, i 137 I thinking of the day when he came into the room and found his throne screwed up so high that he could not climb - ' - 1 it resto-red to the dignity of ai philosophical chair. upg then he had to pietend to lose his tenipei, so as to iave which, as every one knows, is one in which Newbold can sit.

There is one man in college who always insists upon having his hours at 9 o'clock in the morning. That man is Felix Emmanuel Schelling. QNotice particularly the Emmanuel-Schelling says it is an interpolationg we don't doubt it for a minutej. He is a very wonderful man in many, many respects, one of which is that you respect him. Rosenbacli is the only man who ever had the audacity to be disrespectful in speaking of him, and Rosey says he is hazy on his dates. But, pooh, what are dates, when a man has 'his books published in the Athenaeum series Clilizabeth Lyrics, 951.35 net, Ben jonson's Discoveries, ditto, et. al. ditto.j Yes, Schelling is a great man, and moreover he is a man of considerable teniperamentg for proof of this, watch him riding down to college on his two-story wheel, when he is in a hurry for fear that he will not arrive ten minutes before the hour. Wfhat has that to do with temperament? Qh, bother, don't be so inquisitive. One learns from Schelling to prove one thing by another which has no connection with it. In Schelling's struggle to begin on time, he invariably succeeds in marking half the class late. Then there are such times getting things straight. To hear Rosenbach one might think the Union Traction Company never ran a car Without a breakdown, and if the Pennsylvania Railroad knew how Gerhard slandered the train service be- 139 J tween Ardmore and the city, it would refuse to sell him commutation tickets. One time, one of the fellows came in late, and Felix would hear no excuse, he got himself disliked for a day or so, but when he apologized hand- somely, the class came around and loved him as much as ever. The trouble with the hour was that we were all so sleepy. Sometimes Gerhard would not have time for his eye-opener and then he was unhappy. jabby Brin- ton would arrive, showing the evident effects of editing the Fennsylvanian the night before, and really the only man who was thoroughly awake was Merzbacher. No one ever caught him napping. He took more notes than anybody else in the class, and could always quote the professor exactly. That was a winning card. Anyone who could tell Schelling with the proper emphasis that Shelley was a beautiful and ineffectual angel, beating in the void his luminous wings in vain, was absolutely sure of being dis- tinguished. If ever a man loved to be quoted, Schelling was the man, and what is equally true, if ever a man loved to quote, his name was Felix. Mr. Saintsbury, Professor Dowden, Mr. Bagshot, Matthew Arnold, the say- ings of these men fe'll from his lips like nickels from a coining machine, note the simile, it is a realistic figure, with a dash of romanticism tending toward the ideal. Give Schelling a chance to quote one of the men and he was supremely happy. He delivered a lecture on Tennyson once, made up wholly of quotations, and we all nearly expired. He enjoyed himself, but we took notes. Then he got all his quotations plus interest in the next written quiz. Imagine, if you can, Mr. Felix gracefully reclining on his table in the usual lecture room, his sinuous form wrapped around the table legs, his necktie artistically disarranged, and everything in accord with the aforesaid temperament. QI-le came to college one morning without his necktie and josh had to send him home after itj Now imagine us there, too, he loved us dearly, used to call his juniors a horde and us a select crowd. Cf course we deserved it. For didnlt we win his heart by taking his seminars, after 797 had ruined themselves forever by refusing it? He used to tell us wonderful things there. He called Tennyson a santified evolutionist, Browning a burr, VVordsworth a bore and Byron a l. Brinton always got mad when Byron was slandered, but he nev- er dared say anything for fear of betraying his too intimate acquaintance with Don Juan. The first term was d-d stupid. Schelling thought so too. You know he everlastingly hates anything newer than 1700. Conse- quently he presented to our consideration one Wfeygandt. Now any man who talks with a mouthful of oatmeal must be harmless and any man who can take cheerfully all the guying Gerhard can bestow must be a good fellow. But it does not prove that he knows anything about poetry. Wfe got along nicely with Wfeygandt until he told us that John Davidson writes poetry. And we might have believed that if had had not quoted. The quotation finished us and him and we went thankfully back to Schelling. 140 In the second term we had a lovely time, learned all about the interior decoration of Elizabethan innyards, Schelling would enjoy nightmares if they were only Elizabethan-and how Willie Shakespeare used to hold peo- ple's horses at the theatre door if they would give him a nickel. One day Felix told us about the seats in those days and offered chronological proof that the benches in jacksorfs room were inherited by the goat trom Oliver Cromwell when Noll spanked the god of the theatre and turned him out. Two days a week we sat in the big room, but on Fridays we all sat around the big table in the inner room where josh used to hold seminars in junior year. josh was a different josh in those dayg that Puritan mouth of his had not yet learned the Deans office smile. In that room we really enjoyed life, because one could jog the next fellows elbow and make him say things which sounded like damn. Felix drew pictures on the blackboard forms and one day produced with blushes a sketch of his own, representing the first theatre. You mustn't think that we had Schelling only in the senior year. VVe had him in the junior year too, when he ended up by giving us an examination of 250 questions with 250 points in each one and two hours to do it in. Most of us would rather have had three months and costs. It wasn't like Homer Smith's examination, when he was afraid to ask us any questions, and after which, he and Arthur Gerhard had a lovely time at the Bartram. QPri- vate entrance to buffet on Wfoodland avenuej Schelling's patron saint was Easton,of philolo,gy fame,and in order that we might fully appreciate Elizabethan impossibilities, we were sent to the P. S. for an hour a week first term. lJVe learned two things, first that Easton differed constitutionally from Schelling, and second, that Easton never walks on South street because all the old clothes men wanted to sell him a suit. But we enjoyed those tete-a-tetes when the doctor talked about Hamlet and we thought about something else. They prepared us for Schelling, and one needs a preparation for that marvel of constructive ingenuity. V I. atnall 'l'here is a wonderful little theatre on the first floor, where we used to have shows in physics, with one Tatnall as stage manager, when we were Sophomores. The Tatnall was meek and obliging-lovely as he could be. He would have been most beautiful packed in cotton and expressed to his home. But we went twice a week for a whole year, and it might be said that nothing but the knowledge that Goodspeed wrote the examination papers kept us A t ' ' i 'ft ' J f ' ' l other. Consequently there was always a large attendanee-according to the roll. Wfhen the opening ceremony is over and we wait for soinetlnng to happen so that we can yell, Tatnall calls on some one to recite. If any one condescended to say anything Tatty was in clover, but as a rule he was reduced to playino' games with the Atwood's machine or making sparks with the electrophorus. These experiments never b 6 worked, any way. Meantime we played tit-tat-to and other intellectual games devised by Shorty McGrath. Fel- lows on the back row rolled down marbles and played golf with chalk. lf this excitement was not enough, we had textbooks, chairs and other trifles ready to throw. By the time that we were tired out with fun, the childlike and bland being at the desk was so nervous that his hair would Hutter, and he would see no way to relieve his feelings except by sending Arthur Gerhard to the dean's office. That done, he would call on Shorty McGrath to recite. Shorty would desist for a few minutes from cat calls and chicken chirpings, rise and stare with a look of offended dignity at Kid Tatnall. A prolonged silence, broken only by the placid snoring of some ten fortunate students, pervades the room for fully five minutes, during which time McGrath never ceases for an instant to regard Tat- there at all. Half the hour was always used up calling thc roll, xx hile uc all scrapped and answer ed fo1 eac 1 nall with his stern and indignant eyes. He then inquires: Mr. Tatnall, what did you say? lfVhat is dispersion, Mr. McGrath? And then Shorty, emitting a sudden grunt, thrusts his head well forward and murmurs softly: Dispersion oc- curs when anything dispersesf' Down he sits with a sickening thud amid the jubilant hurrahs of the class. Parks seizes the opportunity to start the music box and Rosenbach refers privately to his hip pocket. Suddenly the many-mustached midget, the awful and artful Artyf, no less a personage than the Great Goodsped of X-ray fame, enters and stalks across thc room, During his transit the class, in respectful homage, accompany his every step with violent stampings on the Hoor. Little Arty pauses, fairly glowing with impotent rage, and all his 'little mustaches bristle simultaneously with demoniacal ire. He starts to talk, -but turns and flees, H 142 beaten ignoininiously. This disturbs Babe Tatnall very much, and in despair of knowing anything else to do, fires out Doc Morgan and lack Sinkler. They depart with joy, and, hesitating a minute at the contemplation of such good fortune, they leave with a crash and a bang. And then Tatnall collapses completely. In a broken and pathetic voice he tells us how hard he has worked over us, how disappointed he has been at his apparent failure, and how he grieves day and night that we do not appreciate his effortsg if we know anything that he can do, won't we please tell him, and so on. As l1e iinishes a low, dainty murmur arises in crescendo, and in a noble, self-sacrincing spirit we loudly applaud and settle down for five minutes-because the bell will ring in that length of time. ln succession he calls on Brinton and Parks and Wlilson and Swartley and gets a unanimous opinion, I don't knowf, In dismay he clings to his desk, sinks into his chair and says meekly: l'Take, gentlemen, the same lesson for next time. I-le is more glad to hear the bell than we are, and as we rush out there is a passing vision of 'fatnall in a dead faint upon the iloor, and, in loud, exulting shouts, we claim the victory. lt was that way all the year. Tatty had nervous prostration, and we had-, forget exactly what. But we were the first and last class of Sophomores that ever had the Tatnall. .jg meg L X x We 4 ' SHORTT 'REQTES Q i iiatlaiif rliae f g f 1 qv-1' W l .

Therefore, when the Class of '98 entered as Fresh- men, King James realized that his reign was at an end. After striving in vain to convince his fellow-professors of their danger, he exclaimed one day in despair: I leave you to your fate! 'I dare not delay longer, lest I should be destroyed by my own Frankenstein. No one could be found in this country brave enough to take his place, so Young Jimmie was seduced over from Germany. And thus our Junior year passed without further accident. Then Dr. Patten went to Scotland, He said he went to recuperate his mental impressions, but '98 knows it was because he was afraid to face any more of our tariff questions. Jimmie wanted to go along, but Uncle Si said he couldn't be bothered with a child. So poor Jimmie staid behind, and shortly after Christmas in Senior year he succumbed to typhoid fever and '98 Dean Lewis was to have lectured to us the second term, but he concluded that it would be easier to follow Jimmiels example, and have typhoid. Emory R. has indiges- tion terribly, and only keeps alive by frequent exercise in railway cabs and suburban trolleys. All the others have walking typhoid and are kept on a very low diet fexcept Falkneizj . I 44 By the end of our Freshman year our fame had spread far and wide. Stilz came to us from the science, Reinoehl from Lebanon, and Siegfried from the wharves. Pop Adams forgot to hoe his back yard that year, he was so busy telling Mrs. Adams what a fine class we were. She was so anxious to see us that she offered to give us a party if Quincy would invite us. 'We all went to that party and we all had a good time. VVC all thank Mrs. Adams for our first opportunity to meet our professors socially. I-Iow delighted we were to discover that 'Iosie Johnson and Harry Seager knew not only political economy and German, but some very good stories. It was j'oe's Indian story that got us into his journalism class. But we soon learned that it is one thing to hear a good story and quite another to tell it. One day joe made us each invent ajoke, then read it to the class. Xdfe tried to smile at first, out of politeness, but by the time Solly's turn came the class was in unmanly tears. Other assignments we did better with. For instance, we investigated the election frauds in the Third ward with such practical thoroughness that some of us were set up for the next month. Sam Lindsay attempted to test our virtue by stationing U5 Qufside 3 5310011 Q11 3 rainy night, to C01-11-it 110W many people went in.

In Senior year their confidence in our business ability was undiminished, but they feared that our morals had been corrupted by our contact with arts men in Young's hour. If the arts men can teach us how to match pennies, we can teach them how to debate. Two of '98,s class team were l!Vl13.I'tO1'1 School men. Not in vain had we practiced our lungs in Councils and Senate. Lady Rowe had charge of Councils, and made us elect as president the strongest man in the class to help her ladyship keep order. But not even br ute force would keep Charlie Langstroth from talking so much that he drove Tommy Atkin to the Law School and Ifleisher out into the cold, cold world. Wfe chose as president of the Senate a little man. But we were defrauded of our expected frolics, for 145 jimmy stayed and kept order himself. The only time we were uproarious was when he left us for a few minutes, and We called so loud to him to come back that we disturbed .f- 4 Grandma Falkner's afternoon nap. Another of our most valuable courses in junior year was Dr. Patten's economics. Here is one of his fundamental principles: HllXIl1C11 you toady, be sure to consider the M A special peculiarities of the professor in question.

Youngg in fact it was so in- terestin.g that Reinoehl forgot to discuss politics with Solomon. Dr. Young was doing his best to impress us with the importance of administrative officials and was down to Assessors. He had spent half an hour on the du- ties of Assessors when he said, Now does every one understand that Assessors assess? This is an import- ant point. And then Qresson asked him to go over the point again. That man Young always was sarcastic, but he was especially so one day last December and then he hit Reinoehl hard. As usual, Solomon and Reinoehl were hghting and Reinoehl did not hear Dr. Young when he summed up the differences between administration in England and America, Young must have noticed this Qstrangej, for he addressed Reinoehl: Suppose, Mr. Reinoehl, you were writing an editorial for a newspaper, what would you say were the essen- tial differences between administration in England and America? Reinoehl evidently was not well and did not care to talk or even although this is doubtful it might have been that he did not know. At any rate he said: Fd have to think about it.

Enter the writer of the 'KI-Iistory of the People of the United States, under his right arm a host of cruel documents, our morning dose, in his left hand the very erratic roll-book. Performance begins with the revered master's snappy calling of the rollj McMaster-l'Mr. Rosenbach, please give us a short summary of what we went over last time? Rosenbach Qraising his porcine frame with the humility of a man who has no idea of what the answer may be, in wailing tones, voice in d sharpj- XNhy, you took up the reading of the Declaration of Independence down in the Philadelphia square, and the general--U McMaster- No, I think we had that three weeks ago. That, will do, Mr. Rosenibach. Wfell, who remembers what we went over last time? Long pause, during which McMaster leers timidly at various members of the class. A sudden idea flashes into Swartley's wandering mind, and he plunges in heedlessly: f'W'hy, uh, I think I know, professor, you uh you took up, you took up the matter, let me see, yes, you er took up the matter of whisky. QMac's lips move peculiarly at this point, and he makes a move as if to wipe his mustache, but recovers himself. The uncertain Swartley profits by the suggestion, however-.j Yes, sir, whisky, the uh, you er men- tioned that, yes that, that matters had become involved, matters become so involved that it was simply impossible, er that is impossible? McMaster- No, that's wrong, Mr. Swartley. Wfell, does any one remember? Looks around in his cold, heartless fashion.j Mr, Kriebel, can you tell us? Kriebel QWith feet planted iirmly eighteen inches apart, right hand at right angle between buttons of his waistcoat, head at angle of thirty-three degrees, left hand ready for gesturesj- Yes, sirr! Mr. Rosenbach was quite wrong, as was also Mr. Swartley, although the former was more nearly right than the former. You took up the whisky rebellion. It was in Wfestern Pennsylvania. There they had been accustomed to a plentiful abundance of the refreshing liquorg and so, when a severe tax, and grievous to be borne, was imposed on whisky, 148 and they found it impossible, in view of financial incapacity, to afford the expense of purchasing at the ad- vanced- McMaster frudely interruptingl- No, it was just the other way, Mr. Kriebelf' QThis is one of MclVIaster's intensest pleasures, telling a man bluntly that he is wrong, he exults and gloats over it quietly, but it stirs him to the depthsj Now, I want you to get this clearly before we go on. The coin in that part of the country had come to be practically only whisky-a gallon of good rye was the equivalent of a shilling, so when they taxed whisky they were virtually laying a tax on the currencyin Kriebel tmoving his head with a patronizing air, blandly and apologeticallyj: Yes, sir! That is what I meant to say, only you stated it more clearly, of course. And Kriebel proceeds to tell chiefly what he doesn't know, interrupted on an average of thirteen times per minute by his superior Kriebel, next to McMaster, probably knew more American history than any other man in the class, which is saying a good deal Qfor the other menj. Every one felt that he ought to be made assistant professor, except McMaster, who turned him down on every occasion, and the occasions were very plentiful-Mac doesnt like rivalry, and naturally enough. Finally he breaks in- That will do, Mr. Iiriebelf, and then begins as though Kriebel had said nothing fwhich is quite true, but Mac ought not to be so rudej. Now, I want you to get some ideas of this as we go on. Understand, then, it meant a direct tax on their currency, for they used no other along the Monongahela and Ghio. And this had arisen from the fact that distilling had become a chief industry. There were probably more stills in that part of the country than any other place in the world. So, just as in Kentucky they had come to use skins and furs in trade, that is, as currency,,so here they measured out their currency by the quart or gallon in the shape of whisky. Now, to get some idea of the serious pass to which matters had come. The people rebelled, the troops were or- dered out by the President, and exciting things happened-general rioting, window-breaking, brick-firing and all that sort of thing there his Irish blood seems to be stirred and the semi-annual smile begins to thaw out his frozen countenance, but almost instantly his face freezes back into that eternally careworn expression, it is a very rare occurrence that smile, only a few men have ever seen itj. McGrath finterrupting with a bluff at interestednessj. VVell, did they actually break windows, and- McMaster. Oh, yes, there is no doubt of this, plenty of evidence. Now, I want you to get this clearly. Pause. You will find references to it in the Memoirs of the I-Iistorical Society of Pennsylvania for December, 1794, see judge Addison's charge to the grand jury, then the New York Journal of this period and Philadelphia Gazette, summer of '94, and the American Daily Advertiser, August 9, September 6 and 15, 1794. Now, I want you to make an abstract of these and hand them in. I49 McGrath ClDlLll:l'll1lg' againj. HXNgl1C11 are these to be in, Professor?', lVIcM-. Er-about the middle of November Qwhich meant by the last of januaryj. Then, too, get an idea of the condition of the taxes in general at this time, that is the general revenueg you will find these in the early reports and documents, over in the library. Look up for the years 1790-94. Make an abstract also of these, and bring in. QThe college tower bell begins to ring. McMasters goes right in.j Now notice, in the first place that the people- Cl-lere the electric bell goes off, and Mac stops as if suddenly struck dumbj That will do for this morning, gentlemen. N. B,-An hour with McMaster means 40 minutes with the various lights of the class-Io minutes' lecture from Mac himself, and IO minutes in chapel. But the men don't mind the fraud, because it is the only exciting work they have. Nowhere else does the element of chance enter so plentilixlly-and this is always exciting. For Mac keeps one guessing from the beginning to the end of the hour-whom will he call on? 'What does he mean? VVhat is the right answer? etc., etc., and also from one 'EGl'1ll'S end to the next-what chance that he will draw a D rather than an N out of his general lottery for me? fx T ' I -f n v Xlf i', .

But may be the reader does not come under this classification so we shall give the directions here. Merely take the stairs to the left as you enter College Hall, up one flight, then push gently on the second door to the right, and the chances are youlll see loc himself sitting there in that old chair in his office, cherry pipe in mouth, newspapers and books scattered around, and the most genial face on the campus looking up as you enter. Hello, he'll say, what's the news?l' Then sit down and relate all your woes from the day you were born, and youlll see the same square face looking at you, find a .good word and some sympathy, and always come out feeling that thercls one man in the fac- ulty, at any rate, whols O. K. Vlfhile you were in there, I'm going to wager, you didn't half notice what you saw. Now that youlre out, youlll think it over and begin to wonder why it was you did not look more carefully while you were in. Everybody, except the sub-freshman, who takes his entrance exams next june, knows that joe Iohnson's the 'real backbone of the Vlfharton School, even if little Rollie Falkner, with his tired-of-the-world expression and weighty responsibilities, doesn't realize the fact, and still does think he's the high cock-o'-loruin of that end of the hall. The fact is, the boys all know it's the proper thing yet to get down on their knees to Rollie, because he's a use-to-was, but that doesnlt blur their eyes to the fact that Ioe's a regular old Abe Lincoln alongside of him. Vffell, Joe, being the principal man around the place, as we've remarked, and running the course in journal- ism, and being a practical newspaper man, with more hard sense than the average pedagogue seems capable of. and not being a long-tailed rat, like some of those other mugs that studied so long in Germany and came back ISI too soon, is a very decent chap. And this office of his, as a lounging place, can double discount any Morris chair in Houston Hall for invitingness. It's not a big room, and it's about as ugly-well, as the Library. Order, it knows not-in fact, it's chaos itself. Books are heaped on shelves, papers are all over the desk in the corner and all over the floor. And the atmos- phere would make London's foggiest day seem sunny, for the tobacco smoke is as thick as plum pudding. But joe is there, and that means a jolly hello, a good story, a profound observation let fall between puffs, or a few inquiries, which make you feel certain you are a more important man than Provost Harrison himself. It's a motley gang that infest it, too, until the wonder is they are not all kicked out, as they should be. Solly will be the first to show up in the day, no doubt. He'll come sidling down the hall with that funny propitiatory grinfah, you know, don't you?-of his, rap his knuckles on the door, and then timidly crawl in. His mission will probably be to extend poor joe's limb for some news for the Press Cto which f'Sollv sends several yards of stuff each dayj, to swipe a newspaper and get out. Then old Dila -yes, he from New York State-will drop in and have a friendly discussion over the merits of Tom Platt. At this juncture the door opens and Reinoehl walks in, with a sour expression and the Philadelphia Ledger. Dutchi' thinks that Matt Quay's a bigger man than Napoleon, and while Dibble- is explaining how he bought votes all last summer for his guiding star, will say some- thing to that effect. VVhereupon there's a hot discussion, while joe lights his pipe, which has gone out, and Dibble gets grouchy. Reinoehl concludes that his rheumatism is very bad to-day and that he got up too early- at half-past eleven, in fact-and that he needs rest. Hets just convincing joe about it when Dr. Rowe is seen coming toward the doo-r, and Reinoehl sees him, makes a grimaee like a man in the last stages of seasickness and bolts for the stairs before Rowe gets in, joe's visibly weakening by this time, and after he gets rid of Dila and Rowe, locks the door. Then Siegfried comes along, first tries to take the door by assault and then, finding it locked, raps three times and the door opens, while a Freshman, whos been trying to get in for ten minutes, won- ders how it was done. Siegfried wants to know whether joe thinks we're going to have war with Spain, after which he gets out, the blissful face of dear Eddie Sohm appearing in the doorway in the meantime. Eddie comes in in high dudgeon, and profoiundly thoughful, tells joe he knows a young lady with S40 and is thinking of getting mar- ried, which joe advises him to do, and Eddie goes on to ati and picks a fight with Dr. Young. So it goes all day long Cl am telling you little of itj, until you'd think joe must have a. headache. But, bless your heart, he's not of the ill-natured sort-he leaves that for Rowe to monopolize. You can't surprise him, either. He used to edit the Spokane Spokesman, out in Zululand, and one day a nigger, who had a grudge against the foreman, came in and proceeded to disarrange the latter's physiognomy with 152 a hatchet, or committed some such little indiscretion. At any rate, when joe got down to the office they had the nigger on his back with a printing press on top of l1im, and were mopping the blood up off the lioor, the printer's devil suggesting that they save it and use it for ink on war extras. They all saw Joe coming and made a dive for him to tell him about the light. Umph,,' says Joe, lock the door and don't let that doggone Daibf News man get a word of it.' And then sat down and wrote up a two column article about it for next morning's Spakesmaw. He's a James-dandy in this line, as another incident goes to show. Que day Siegfried was in a corner of the oliice trying to get some books off of a top shelf, and not over-pleased with the job. joe johnson was lighting his pipe, about a minute after which the whole room sprang into a blaze, the match having started the papers on the floor. Joe was calmly tramping it out, just as ii that was the most regular occupation in the world, and, as the flame flared up all over the room, he said, in a matter-of-fact way: Comme over here and help me put out this fire, will 3-ou?', You canlt lose joe, and his office is a great place. Drop in and see him some day. ifllllllllflillxmfllll tlithftirifee The fatal moment has arrived. Promptly at 9.09 Dr. Rowe appears, marches to his desk with stately strides and, without a word, proceeds to call the roll. Three men answer. Forcing a smile, Leo assumes a graceful atti- tude and waits for a quorum to assemble. He has a rule that all men not present at roll-call will be marked absentg this is nothing but a bluff. By 9.15 ten men have wandered in. Glancing up from his desk, littered with notes and numerous highly-illustrated advertisements Cthese last constituting his morning mailj, he surveys his victims with glittering eyes. Every man holds fast to his hair and braces himself for the shock. Presently the glass doors of the book-cases rattle and the room is quivering and vibrating to the sound of: L'Gentlemen, at the close of the last hour eh, e-h, I announced that we would devote the e-h, the e-h time this morn- ing to an oral quiz. The ground we have e-h, we have e-h covered during the past week includes e-h, e-h-h, three hundred and ninety-one pages of Goodnow's Municipal Problems, and e-h. the e-h notes bearing on a, an a-h, a discussion of the-e, the question of corporations.

'What is the e-h, the e-h relation of the municipality to a-h, to that class of corporations which I, which T have e-h, designated as public-quasi? Pat. treading from his notesj- The municipality should possess an adequate financial control over all quasi- public corporations exercising their functions under a franchise granted by the legislative body of the said munic- ipalityf' Exactlyg is there any member of the class that does not understand Mr. Patterson's explanation? Very well. Mr. Canother suspensej Cresson, will you state in e-h, e-h-h, concise language and explain the conditions under which such adequate control is possible?,' Caleb-f'XNhat's that, doctor? I don't quite understand your question? ' Leo raises his voice still higher, and repeats the question in such sesquipedalian phraseology that even Stilz becomes worried. Cresson is completely bewildered, and gives up the puzzle. W l'VVell, Mr. Moses, can you answer the question?l' 154 Moses fhopefullyj- I think so, doctorfl The class applauds the bluff, and, being anxious to give him a chance, Siegfried questions the learned doctor regarding his own views on the subject. Leo turns toward Sieg. and smiles benignly. Before answering the question, he pauses and marks down a DU opposite the name oiSiegi1-ied, F. H. Meanwhile Mos. consults with coaches Morrison and Lawson, and when called upon, by the judicious use of such phrases as governmental authority, sociological aspect, apparent discrepancy and quasi-public, succeeds in convincing Rowe that he has thoroughly prepared the subject. To continue, Mr. -, Smith, what peculiar conditions are essential to the municipality in order that it can limit the sphere of activity of the public-quasi corporations? Smith, who is our shining light, names thirty-one conditions. I7 Leo Qin disgustj- Cant the class think of any other conditions absolutely essential? After a second's pause, he exclaims: Gentlemen, have you forgotten the seven sub-headings into which I divided the condition-'that in order to control private companies the municipality must have power so to con- trol? QClass groansj If you have not incorporated the following in your notes, you will proceed to do sof' Caleb- But, doctor, what is the number of that condition you just mentioned? Leo Cwrathiullyj- Mr. Cresson, don't ask about numbers, ask intelligible questions. Still swelling with indignation, he continues: You will now pay the closest attention and note the follow- ing seven sub-headings under condition number twenty--seven. 'Sub a-The regulation e-r-e-r, of entranchised corporative bodies must regulate' . The hour bell rings. 'lGcntlemen, you will remain until I have given you under this sub-heading the seventeen sub-sub-.U The rest is drowned in the sound of falling chairs and flying feet. XA XV 1 i ,r ,.

Wfalker, con- sumption Cof which he appeared to be the victimj, and so on, he looked as if he had just been dug out of Egyptian sands and unrolled from dirty mummy cloth. 'Ninety Eight knew him for three long years, and offered fervent thanksgivings because they were spared a fourth. Yes, they knew him for those years, though dur- ing the first two of them they were mercifully preserved from the infliction of his immediate presence. They had seen him walking about the hall like a grim, loose- jointed spectre. As Freshmen, they gave one look and then Hed for the stairs and down them, stopping to beg of Poinp, Oh, wha! is that thing upstairs which looks so like the Masque ofthe Red Death we are reading about with josh Penniman ? They would manage to creep back to their lectures later, but in pallor from the experi- ence. As Sophomores, they became more courageous, but loved him less. joe john- son told he wasn't really so worse and had brought him Uoej to Old Penn. If thatls so, letls put down one mark of merit for the old man-it's about all he can claim to have done for 'Ninety Eight when St. Peter gets hold of him. And then came that solemn black year when we had to put up with him for two hours weekly, whether we liked it or not. lt was awful. He would come clumping in with his 32.00 shoes, Hour-bag coat, baggy trousers and twenty-five-cent necktie, poke his long legs beneath the table, which creakingly supported his elbows, and then, with a preliminary rattle in his throat, he would start his discussion. Now, there were always three characteristics to these discussions. In the nrst place, after every statement he would make a welcome pause, which would he tol- lowed by a grunt and another rattle, and then he would come out with the inevitable, ln other words, and rehash all he had said and in even worse language than before, 156 The second of these characteristics was the regular row with Stilz. Stilz always was an argumentative chap, and would generally haul the Mummy up for some crazy statement before he had gotten to his third in other words. And then they would have it out, hammer and tongs, knock down and drag out, while twenty juniors sat grinning like deathheads until Stilz would shut up. The latter generally gave the old man a pretty good run for his money, too. The third characteristic was a regulation scowl he directed into the corner inhabited by two of joe johnson's journalists, These two, naturally wearied by 1he How of rocky English, would seek diversion through such harm- less devices as reading a newspaper or discussing the price of beer in Camden, and this always seemed to worry the Mummy terribly. He would stop and stare at them for a minute at a time, blinking owlishly and looking like a garter snake in an attempt to digest marbles. Nobody could stand that, so the newspaper duo would shut up for a bit, and His Highness would go on with the funeral. Wfith another grunt and another rattle, and maybe a few more in other words -es. r He would expound the most wonderful views. He claimed that we built our navy for the pleasure of looking at the ships. That money had no value, and could as well be made out of wood as gold-that dollars were merely counters, like poker chips. tThough '98 always has believed that the Mummy bit each of the coins that came into his hands, to see if they were goodj He would tell us one day that money was not a commodity, while joe johnson, on the very next, would vow that it was. And on being told that joe differed with him, he would go into an elaborate argument to show us that one professor saying one thing and another saying the opposite was the best way in the world to teach us how to think. It certainly was the best way to make us think-that we were getting pretty badly stuck for that S160 which we were taking down to little Eddie Mumford each year. Among his pleasant little mannerisms was a way of flunking men who had righteously passed his work, and of passing some who had not. It seemed to depend on the amount of jolly received. In ordinary justice, we must admit that all of this was not confined to the fossil in question, but he certainly is the example pew excellence of it. Now take one of those journalists, for instance. Uncle Si, as 797 had leniently dubbed him, passed this chap O. K. the first term, but scared him into twice the work for the second. Term work and examination were well above the first term's, and the junior thought he was out of the oldl man's clutches. But Si's -spite-had increased and down went the man. The day it was announced the Mummy sailed for Europe with a second-class ticket on a third-class ship-it was said he was in fear of being made ready for his mummy case again. Two weeks later the '98 man went to Europe after him, taking a shot gun plugged with 'Patten on Rent, with which to blow him full of holes, and spent the summer in the search. But the Mummy was up in Scotland living on un- cooked oats and heather, so the junior went down to Paris to forget his woes. Though he always had the satis- faction of knowing that the Mummy didn't dare return to Philadelphia so long as '98 was still in college. 157 , A 1 P r - or I' L J' e i IIIIIII S I - I I I , ous on ., .W 1 fl Ile E .. g e 3 'I f' 5?

The invitation was I ', I lm X, , fro-m Charlie, who evidently had been foremost in the preparations for this I w I I reunion, as he was always noted for his surpassing class spirit.

The former, withhis treemendous feeling for lights and dawksf' led in his dear sweet way, our young minds through the difficulties of charcoal and water color. Long may his sable brush wave. 159 Once a week, for exercise, we used to run across the campus to see Dr. Bergey and listen to his quiet little talks upo-n ventilation and sewage. In our last year we came into a new joy, Golfie. That is, we expected he would be a great joy, but he, like other joys sometimes are, proved to be short-lived and disappointing. 'lSister', was another joy, but one of a different character, that was the Udickens of it. He was so anxious for us to avoid Hmolassessy effects in our drawing, and we were so contrary and disobliging, that he declared he tho-ught he would just get mad. Then the historian told our own draughting-room ex- periences, the hearing of which we still relish. How keen the competition was be- tween Hi, jack and Hutch for hrst, second and third first mentions. Hi and jack seemed to have the best of it, however, Hutch managed to- show his good hand quite often. jack would start his design with the idea that he was going to get first first mention, and, frightening 'fl-li and Hutch,l' they would get together and Q, 0 q after a fearful consultation decide that jack could not be prevented from taking it, then Hi would speak for second place, and, as silence gives consent, Hutch would take third. He also told us of jacks summer work QD and the dimpudencei' of it, which so aroused Sisterls wrath and caused his sweet blue eyes toisnap dan,ger- ously. Then there was that surveying course, limited by the rain. lt limbered up Shortyls joints and taught johnson to lift his feet higher in moving around. He was tempted to take his course to get his mo-ney's worth, at least that's what some one said. lt was all right, though, oh, yes! But we must not forget our sto-re and how soon we felt the effect of the new Dingley bill, even before sup- plies had time to get over to this side of the water. Old Xerxes must have lost many hairs on account of the adverse criticism aroused thereby, but he bravely continued to bunco us and talked of a trip to Europe during the coming summer. This wasnlt our only trouble, either. The dear faculty thought wevwere stealing their lights, so they compelled us to pay for any missing globe. Mr. l3eiswanger was very much put out at the stand taken by the authorities, and even threatened to take his books and go home, which threat brought affairs to a better state immediately. Benny, being so anxious to keep his lamp from the hand of the I'filcher,l' hid it in his drawer, which, being violently shut one day, set it off with a loud pop, much to the discomfort of K'Benny. There'was much unrest among the disorderly, too, Criss, Reuben Billy' and Benny could't keep still. Lie down, you dog, ya, ya, ya, How's de cropsf' etc., quoted as samples of characteristic expressions, give but a slight idea'of how awful it was.

Coloinel,' could not be kept from work, Benny would yodle for him, and Shorty glower down upon him, and johns soak him at the store, but of no avail. To be brief, we all remember how one sad day he Hnished a problem. Chawlie,' ought to have been o-n that force, for he was a good scrapper. He was actually going to throw something at Pat one day, and beside that he was twenty-one. Bob ought to have been a club- ber, too, for he could have written out warrants for arrests without making any mistakes in spelling. Some one said he misspelt professor in a petition during the first year, but nobody would believe that who knows E-ob. As to the jo-llier among us, Dick,' led the crowd. He was slick, and the only thing that marred the smoothness was that dear little moustache. He had such an honest face and could tell them so straight that Johns thought seriously of taking him into partners-hip at one time. Perhaps next to Dick', comes Betts.'i He was smooth, too. But I am taking too much time. To be brief, the speaker Hnished, and after the police had forcibly con- vinced Pat that it wasn't time for him to speak yet, some programs o-f the tofasts to follow were handed around, and I'll just put the list down here, so you can see what we listened to before breaking up our joyful gathering: Jack ...........................................................................

Through the former we niissed that inotley, though wholly in- offensive crew, the second year specials and the Senior Class ot iQ7g while through the latter we noticed, among those who had spent the holidays in architects? offices, a decided reduction of superfluous flesh and a resigned expression which gave little promise of energetic reorganizing. 'J Alas! indeed a grand shake up was sadly needed, for though the aforementioned dear departed had done all in their power to launch us on our new responsibilities' by electing a president and vice-president for us, yet we found ourselves barely able to fill the other ofhces. The Senor Class now nuinbered as many as three. These were 'Willie VVittenberg-who was catalogued as Senior, but took post senior design, and thought he was super- ior to all the restg -lack Sinkler and Hi Miller-the others said Hi wasn't a Senior at all, but a special, because he hadn't passed graphics and couldn't speak French. There were besides a few junior and Specials-but they didn't count. ' 163 f it Tl-l I x gli? ARCH ITECTVRAL ,W is 4 ' l I Hi Miller had been elected president and the rest of tlie Senior Class had been given important positions on the Executive Board. Willie Siegel Qthey say he is called Reginald at homej had grabbed vice-presidency so as to have the juniors represented among the high officials. NValter Thomas was given the treasurer's job, since he was still young and hadn't learned to be dishonest, and Bob Snyder was installed as secretary. Then we began to look around for new members. There were a lot of Sophs. and first T., , I ' 3, year Spec. who were now eligible, and from these we were able to collect a well assorted group of first and second mention men. I I., QU ibflx And so we surprised ourselves by finding at the end of a month that we X rf 1 had put ourselves on a Hrm basis, not only socially but also as regards our I' 3 X Hprofessionall' profit. - I In November we had our first smoker-it was a success. Wfe had a club competition - a lantern for the college vestibule. Guss Rheinhardt was 1 X the only man who seemed to have realized that the light should be thrown gi fi' downward-not upward-so he got first mention. Then Prof. Laird gave i l Q us an interesting talk on State Capitols-a subject which it will be well to rg-af-:SlZgi7 Simamccs. know something about when we are designing them next year. Then we smoked some and ate various stuff and drank cider and listened to the profs. talk. Mo-st of the profs. went home early, but Pilcher stayed till nearly quarter to ten telling us what a fine fellow he is. In December we had another smoker and Seeler told us what horrible things tall buildings are the is building one himself nowj, and we ate and drank and smoked again. Pilcher-this time-told us how to become great- he tried it and succeeded. He says it is line. Next smoker Mr. Millard spoke about Mr. Day's Art Clubs and Horticultural Halls-just to show us that he co-uld talk about other things than shades and shadows and mechanics. This time Mr. Pilcher had to stay at home -baby wasn't feeling very well. VVe missed him-but we saw Dawson smoke a cigarette, so we didnlt mind so 164 'fx K. fished li' -X,-fr. .. -Q , ,fl L X xx F K fs . N li 1 fi - , :ZEN fi iii F! nv .s much. Mr. Dawson is a nice fellow, but he doesn't smoke much, and when he does try occasionally he forgets which hand he ought to hold the cigarette in and whether he ought to blow the smoke out of his mouth in one big puH or in a little thin stream. lt is Very nice to watch him. At this smoker we had another competition. lt was a Colonial fireplace. jack Sinkler got mixed and usedaMoorish scheme. So he was fired out. Bob Snyder tried to be real- istic and put a cat by the fire, and he pretty near- ly got Fired out too, for trying to design a new style of cat that wasn't Colonialg but Millard put in a good word for him and he got third mention. Sie- gel made a mantle piece, out of two columns, with a board resting on top. That seemed to strike the judges, fancy, so he got first. VVe feel that the Architectural Society is at last on a Hrm basis and r-'E' .EQ N.p,.2 kb .- 1 .-, 7 c13.1.,l I tiff I jsp fir ttf my Y? Sim le:-'ss is likely to prosper.

O, mighty king, lord of many tl'l1110S uhosc faint goeth forth into the uttermost parts ofthe sea. Behold in the fifth 5e1r oi his reign there came unto him a mighty host of young men, some from near and some from far, yea, even from the four quarters of the earth. oyful were they, for they knew not unto what they came. And their number was full two-score-and-ten, and mighty in brawn and brain-not. And behold, they prostrated themselves before the great king, the monarch of monarchs, and thereat was he much pleased. And he lifted up his Voice unto them, saying: Go ye unto my subjects and learn manv things. his kind, for the mouth of the king had spoken it. g And they departed, each unto OURSELVES. Now, among the subjects were some of divers manners full of knowledge. Even so was one of a far country whom men called Sehwatt. 166 In the first day went of portion of the host in unto this man, which spake unto them in a strange tongue, say- ing: Tsdisdeengineerseh !ItellyouonlygenteelmenTamSchwattdoyouunderstandyoushallstuttyvaaryhartdoyouunderst- andandIvillshowyousomevaarycuriousdoyouunderstandthingsdoyouunderstandP Now, among the host was one, a Wfise man, of stature, one cubit. ' A This man it was whom in' after! years they sat in 'a boat and Z placed in his hands cords, say1ng:'5teer thou this boat unto vic- J 7 tory. And he took the cords, one in each hand, and did steer the ff- boat with the cords. And it sank. ,fix Wfith the which the great Schwatt had spoken was the W7ise yt X, one much pleased, and he opened his mouth and made a joyful f noise thereat. X Then waxed Schwatt much wroth, and he expectorated upon the iioor, saying: li ff? NananananananayoushallnotlaughatSchwattltellyouonlygente' XX S l , elm enyoushallnotlauglidoyouunderstandMeesterVisegoyoulaughto I-X l 'Q f l dedean. A W And he, the Wfise one, being small of voice and stature, was Q' I . T i sore afraid and held his peace. ,Qt .bf - - . . . W But spake yet again Schwattie, saying: Go, and johnny went. And it came to pass after certain days that a portion of the host were gathered together in a far corner of the great king's domain, called the shops. And even unto this day knoweth no man why they are so called. In the first day came he which had been given charge over this place by the great king, unto one Ted, sur- named Landis, saying: Take ye of the things which ye see about you and chip. Then Ted, surnamed Landis, took unto himself a chisel and a great hammer. And unto his left hand he took the chisel and unto his right hand took he the hammer. 167 ll Until the ancient of days shall come shall there be never again such blow stricken as he, Ted, surnamed Landis, did strike on that day. Yea, mighty was it, and drove full on the part of the left hand, wherein lieth the most feeling. - And he lifted up his voice and praised the name of the great king, saying: 2 rn i it r 1 ri nn And he, which had said unto him, chip, was full of joy and gladness. V W So, in divers manners found the host its devious way along the strait and narrow path of vk ll? 2 . knowledge. I nl kw t Some waxed good. For in the first year of the subjection of the host unto the great king fx Q if flg, went they all each and every day unto chapel. l Zs f And in the second year was it even so. And in the third year. I ' g f But in the fourth year was their spirit broken. And in a certain day one who was bold said, X! with fear in his heart, yea, when all men knew that he should have spoken nay. ' LW X Then was there wailing and gnashing of teeth. For among them was one Tommy Sometime Q Finanffel which had waxed Good and 'et more good in the face of all dangers and the co nitions lx, 6 1 D 5 o b g of his enemies. And when he heard that which had been spoken, he lifted up his voice in lamentation and f gave up the ghost. And when they brought him to they made unto him a nice halo, which became him well. And he laughed a horny laugh, the which he only could do and which he doeth often and with much noise. Some moved slowly and some with much speed. Even so was one called Tub, because of the capacity which was within him. For a tired feeling possessed him ever so after some days mounted he himself upon a pony and trotted it along the strait way. And the pony increased in thickness and volume, and became a mighty horse well made and fair to look upon. And some waxed eloquent and full of talk. From the land of Jersey came a man named Ruben, which pow-wowed much with himself. 168 43.-5 And on a time he began speaking, and because the door was l l , ' f C slut tiey of the host which ff were anear could not go forth. And he spoke on. And after fourteen days he choked a great C 1 EQ choke and said it is finished. And the rest awoke with a deep sigh. K And some worked miracles in themselves. - ir, For there was one whom they called Gib, or on divers times jiblets, because he was full of i soup and gravy. Q gl IX In the second year of the subjection, on a certain time came he unto the host with halting Y step and with much trepidition. , And behold, a miracle has been wrought, and it was the new woman. And they made merry sport about it and scoffed thereat. -1 J For the sight of the bloomers filled them with great joy, and they made among themselves is sundry mention of tire sales and stuffed legs. . I ,g3g:9 But he suffered in silence and opened not his mouth. 1 X? So after certain time they ceased and went their ways. ., ' i , Qllfilfls OUR SMOKERS. 'A S And it came to pass that in the first year of the subjection there came unto the host certain others which had gone before. X4 And they opened their mouths and spake unto them, saying: Give us fifty cents, for we would have a smoker. IQ, 1 f 4 And because they were young and knew not the way of the world, coughed up each of 1 X A, f them his fifty cents. p 5.-.a c Again came those which had gone before, saying: Come and smoke. So they gathered themselves together and talked much talk and made merry one with another. ! Q E And they ate of divers things and consumed much drink Qcider onlyj and smoked much bum smoke. E 169 .R +3 And there were those among them who knew not the wiles of the pipe, and they turned green in the place called gills and went forth with unseemly haste. But this was in the first year of the subjection. In the second and in the third, yea, even unto the last year, met they together and with joy. And as their legs had been pulled, so also pulled they the legs of those which came after. And when they were gathered together, ever would the great king lift up his voice and say: It is well. ' oUR DANCES. Again came they which had gone before, saying: Appoint ye, among yourselves, one to serve with us and have a dance. And they did as they had been commanded, and he served and danced and got stuck three plunks. And in the second year they served not, for the one which was appointed among them had departed thence. But in the third year it came to pass that among the host were some who loved the dance, and they took upon themselves the task of making a good thing thereof, So they took each unto himself his burden and pushed it along. And, behold, the dance was the greatest of its kind until that year. ' But in the last year was even that surpassed. For they were persuaded that it could be made of worth and full of splendor, and they did make it even so. And many of king's subjects did come unto it and the best girls thereof. And among others and the best girls thereof. A And the great king also, and he smiled a large expansive smole again, saying: It is well. OUR FINISH. Thermodynamics. OUR ENDS. So it came to pass that the end drew nigh unto them. And they were joyful and full of gladness that the days of bondage were past. 170 .And of those which had come unto the great king, the which they had learned to love and to honor, scaree halt Z1 score remained. For some fell by the wayside and some sought pastures new. But the chosen few fell upon good ground and have brought forth the fruit of their toil. And so they go forth to do battle with the world, each unto his kind. 4-f' I V A J' Q 1 X 5 MMA t -.Q di gg ,ll it btee Tbout with ilaucien Emile icolet It was five minutes before nine on one of those cold days. last January. The wind was blowing seventy-five miles an hour from the northwest, the wheels were going around in the dynamo room, and a crowd of would-be engineers were on the second floor removing their overcoats, when Lucien Emile Picolet was blown into the Engineering Building and then betook himself in a frozen manner to the instructors, room, on the third Hoor. In the drawing room the early comers were gathered. Craig, of course, had already begun work, and was at it so hard that the rest felt bad. 'Harrison was walking around the room with a careworn expression on his face, while Crossan was smoking a cigar of very uncertain quality. The quiet was suddenly and rudely disturbed by the arrival of Deacon, who entered, and at the same time made a loud noise with his mouth, his feet and other parts of his body. He was followed by Gib Vincent, apparently musing about that darling girl of his, and carrying a billet-doux in his hand. At last the bell struck nine, the men slowly got to work, and Picolet, otherwise known as Pickles, entered with his little record book. This book contains all of Picolet's marks, which are worthless, but which he cherishes and guards with the greatest care. He called the roll and then, to his utter horror, he found Crossan smoking. In a paroxysm of excitement, accompanied by rapid strides around the room and orders given in elevated tones, he had that nasty stumpl' instantly extinguished. VVith this agitation over, Pickles had time to turn his attention to his dear little thermometer above his desk. This he finds much too low UD for he has not yet begun to throw himself out, for which purpose he needs a very high temperature. So he proceeded to close all windows and turn on all heat. Landis and Richardson then arrived, as the clock read quarter after nine. Picolet, as usual, made special note of this in his record book, and reminded them that they had been late every day for the last three years. Now, it is evident to every one that with five steam heaters on and all the windows closed the temperature of a room is bound to rise. And it did rise on that cold day last llanuary, when Pickles tried, as he had often done before, to thaw himself out Cand drive us out of the roomj. lt took him so long to thaw that Deacon finally gave a vociferous protest, which was heard all the way over at the college. This brought about a consultation, followed 172 by a compromise, by which the frozen turnip allowed two windows to be opened one-sixteenth of an inch. VVith order apparently restored and all the men arduously at work CFD Lucien retired to make one of his usual visits to the shops. In a moment the windows were opened, and a blast of cool, fresh air filled the room. Such bliss, however, could hardly last long, and it did not, for he soon returned and even went to the trouble of fainting when he felt the cold. cold air which the wicked boys had let into the room. So the windows had to be closed 'iffain and he was restored finally only when his thermometer registered 105 degrees in the shade. These were not the end of his woes with the ,gentle Seniors. He had just managed to stop an attempted recital of johnny ldfise on the mouth organ by promising him a fat and juicy duck for his efforts when there was a mild rush to the windows, accompanied by the upsetting of chairs, tables and the spilling of ink, T-squares and drawing boards. And then all heads were put out of the windows and just as many rubber necks were stretched to see two lovely Pennsylvania girls pass by. Lucien, who had been upset in the panic, arose to his feet andmade strenu- ous efforts to quiet the disturbance. He was about to give up in despair when the clock struck twelve. This was a signal. for a general riot. Deacon and Calely had a Bierce fight about a bottle of ink, Landis and Vincent dex- trously juggled T-squares fnot their ownj in mock fencing combat, Craig and Davis were lovingly locked in each other's arms, while Pickles was carefully marking up in his record book a long list of woes against the whole crowd. . c Z3 , l l WHT? ,. li QW? w - Y w?7'?ff3'iQ -ff,-I fx fjlf.. ,,l if ZX f1...f:- 21 L ,f f k. 1 Z-HM A Newtown Incident -,Q-in . ,, T .- 'qw ' ii ,A lllw.?, ,,,!

Our Freshman year was a long nightmare, terminated sharply by our Survey of a Portion of Fairmount Park. Till then, the profs had seemed gods to our fifteen overworked minds, but all was fsuddenlyj changed, and W'illie-our own dear Wfillie VVebb--exposed his character and became a mortal. 'We learn that pro-fs could swear-why cou'ldn't we? Since then the engineers have been noted for their vituperative abilities. We were taking soundings in the Schuylkill River when it happened. The sun was hot, as were the seats in the boat. Pic- ture lfVillie standing up in the boat, manfully blowing his siren whistle, and, with both hands, frantically shaking his transit rod. Picture, also, the roar he uttered and the words he said as he sat down on the hot seat of the boat. As he said when, later, he apologized for his behavior,'lBoys, I know the air was blue, but so was the whistle, - which was a pretty good joke for VVillie Webb. The incident made a lasting impression on our fresh, young minds. - Up to this time Mr. Easby for Easy',j had played an unimportant part in our career. He was new, we were new, and we all knew it. We took comfort together in our misery. 175 VVe experienced a falling away in Sophomore year, only eleven of us were left. Some of our brothers, preferring dealing out death to others to being slowly killed themselves, went into the Medical Department. Oth- ers, foreseeing that any surviving C. Efs would need the assistance of lawyers, held auctions of their goods and chattels and entered the Law School. QNothing need be said of those who failed to come back in any department, alas lj To this reduced class, Easby now exhibited his many charms Cgay neck wear and shirts more gayj.And Willie, feeling safe with a smaller class, shaved off his mustache and bought a bike, It is said that Stitzer was re- sponsible for the 'loss of the mustache. -Wfillie couldn't bear to be beaten, even on such a minor detail of construc- tion. ' Mr. Wfitmer now became our idol. His affairs Qeven matrimonialj were enthusiastically discussed, and oh! what joy OD there was when the wedding invitation came! The greatest event of the Sophomore year was A two weeks' railroad survey. The practical knowledge we gained and the fun we had have been fitly celebrated in oUR TRIP T0 NEWTOWN: The day was bright and cheerful As we started on our way. Sedate and peaceful Newtown Vtfas the scene of our survey. Nine faithful formed our party Not counting one old duffer, VVhose nom-de-plume-profcssor- Should be changed, we think, to Came Corson, Stitzer, VVilhelm, West, Mary, and Billie Greene, But sporty Yngve Sundstrom Was nowhere to be seen. bluffer.l' 176 Then were with us Lee and Quimby, Now, alas, 'tis sad to tell, How they're Hgone, but not forgotten Let us ever wish them well. And two professors led us, Cne's face mustached and thin, The other's face you could not see, 'Twas hidden by a grin. VVe got to Newtown early, Wfith transits, rods, and trunks, And in the Temperance Hotel We found our modest bunks Professor VVebb had picked the hostel, ln which we paid our bill- Oh! where would VVillie dear be now If 'twere no sin to kill? Cnr work? -you dare to ask us!- Indeed that's hard to say: Play cards, eat lunch in mornings, In afternoons survey. llVhen we had our supper Vlfe donned our evening caps, And journeyed to the pool room 'While Walter worked the maps. At hours after midnight, With all asleep in town, We stole their incandescent lights And pulled their street signs down. We bought a barrel of cider VVhile the owner of it lay Asleep above his little mill. QI-Te never asked for payj One day we met a jersey bull A-grazing on a 'lotg Come hither, bull, said Jimmie Lee, The bull came on a trot. The bull's excitement soon waxed warm And Webb's became intenseg And with his transit in the air He started for the fence. 'Twas quickly done and gracefully, But 'twas his only chance. He jumped in time to save himself- The barbed wire saved his pants. Thus came a fitting climax Upon the final day . Of the time we spent most merrily W'hile on the fal'l survey. As juniors ften in numberj the Civils were a decided success. For the first time we met Professor Marburg, commonly called The Duke, and we began to comprehend what a civil engineer should be-tall, stout and bc- whiskered. A great change it was from the time when VVillie and Easy were our models of civil engineering propriety. - Under Marburg we had no time .for the ladies, for he demanded thirty hours per day for his own branches. Under Merz and Sundstrom we had still less time, for the game of pool, as they taught it, is an exacting science. 177 It was only as Seniors that We really began to live. Now we are happy. All the profs. Cexcept Pompj how down and do us reverence, thinking, perhaps, that their misclceds can be smoothed over and forgotten, and that we will soon be beyond their clutches. Our intercourse with them has become quite familiar. Smoke up, And Reilly don't suit me, Bluffer, lJluffer -these are often heard in class room, and indicate a growing 211'fCCflO11. But all things must have an end, and when we end it will be as follows: Corson, the fat mang Greene, the grindg Merz, Beau lllrumnielg Stitzer, the hydraulic jack gn Sundstrom, arbiter eleganteriunig Vlfest, the blufferg Wfilhelm, the man from Michigang Van Gilder, the 4ooo-words-per-minute man.

The Doctor rubs the top of his head and says: The Athletic Committee doesn't think the boys ought to be fed at the training table for nothing unless they live at home. If they are paying board, it is only right that they should turn over the sum they are paying to the association. Pemberton, fearing lest the subject should drop, says: VVell, Doctor, do you think that is just exactly fair, now I have a friend who pays twelve dollars a week for his board and it would hardly be right- to expect him to pay that amountf, ' Pfeiffer here whistles through his beard: Any man that would pay that much for his meals is- At this point a terrific explosion occurs.

M. Many important questions were discussed, chiefly physical problems, however, as everyone seemed to take such an interest in the results of the others' experiments in the lab. In Senior year we determined that neither personal effort nor expense should be spared in making the HPro- ceedings of the Engineers' Club matters of real interest. It was in pursuance of this plan that the distinguished lecturer, Prof. Easby, was asked to give a short talk on 'Wlater Filtrationf' The day came. So did a large number of eminent hydraulic engineers that we had invited over from the city. A few abstracts from his lecture will go to show the high quality of his remarks: Gentlemen: The subject I have been asked to say a few words about there he held up a paper in the ray of the electric lantern, as if to consult itj is a very complex one.

This plate represents the different ages Qfocus that a little better, pleasej of what may be called bacteria or germs of diseaseg that is to say, a micro-organism or microcosm, which when being placed in a condition favora- ble for growth, will grow. The ideas presented in this sentence GD were too many for the club. Vtfith one accord they rose up and ad- journed, leaving Easby to the mercy of his fellows. The next meeting was one of more interest. Dr. Marburg was asked to talk about Swing Bridges. Placing a cigar in his mouth, he said: Boys, we'll adjourn to the B. and 0. bridge over the Schuylkill and see one in operation. But step in my office a minute and I will show you one or two plans. We did so. Vtfhy did not some kind spirit whisper what was in store for us? For one whole hour did he keep us listening to his ravings, interrupting only by Do you see? or lWill you kindly suppress that Fresh who is throwing chalk through the door? At 3 o'clock we started and after being lost several times found ourselves on the bridge. Much that had been very obscure in our minds became quite evident CFD and all would have been well ended had not 'Wilhelm began to talk about de Bijou. The f'duke showed great interest in the conversation and told us several stories of his own theatre-going. We tried to escape, but mere politeness made us listen, and until we reached the cars to return home no one could slide a word in edgewise. Much more could be written indicative of the high scientihc tone of the club's proceedings, but one more quo- tation from the journal will suffice. W. Loring Welsh Cknown as Dr. VVilliej was the invited guest and the subject under discussion was Stone Archesi' or The Economic Theory of Teaching. 'fMembers of the club, the matter is one of great importance, especially in the condition of education at the present day. The aim of the instructor should be to have so well studied his subject the year before that he need not open his text-book until he comes to the class-room. 184 Any questions that may puzzle the student should be suppressed as there are many disputed points in the theory and the time of the class should not be taken up in fruitless explanation. He backed up his argument by citing himself as one who had used the method with great success. At this the club broke out into cheers, and so hearty was the demonstration that the motion for adjournment could not be heard-yet all left. It is almost needless to say that the benefits received from such scientific meetings will be of inestimable value in the future work of the members of the club. These discussions have opened to their eyes and minds long avenues of thought. It is to be remembered, however, that intense thought is apt to produce brain fever, and all club members should not forget their motto, Toil not. U 3 x i C?

The chief discoveries in chemistry during 1894, aside from that of Argon in England were, , first the establishment of the facts that it is dangerous to wash the Hoor near the co-ed's YY desk with nitrogen iodide Cobservation of Messrs. Hanna and Hunterj, and second, the brilliant proof of Mr. Petit that pure bromine, when liberally applied to the hand, tends to- produce burns. Petit was one of three arts men who changed over to chemistry after the mid-years, laboring under the delusion so common to the uninitiated. that chemistry is a cinch. They were soon to be cured. 186 Another consequence of the mid-years even more melancholy than the advent of the arts men was the depart- ure of R. Ogelsby, resulting from too marked a preference for foot ball and rushes, at the expense of filtering and reactions. This were little to forgive, since many fell by the wayside on that occasion, but Rab basely deserted Pennsylvania for Princeton in spite of the tears and entreaties of his Cousin Billie, who still remains faithful unto this clay. Many surprises awaited the spared ones when they again assembled in the fall of '95. The three ex-arts men, our children by adoption, had given up the ghost, as is usually the case with those that turn to chemistry to avoid lions in the path. Crowell and Hunter had also left us, the former to study cattle in the Wfest, and the latter to study chemistry in the East. .I I I uf. x ...... - , I - , 'L 1 ic nuttin ,, qtlts FUR mamma .L D c ll, T as , l1Ve were almost consoled for this several losses, however, Dy the acquisition of Pfeiffer and Dugan, who have ever since been among our most brilliant orna- ments. ' Pfeiffer Clater known as Wfhiskers, to distinguish him from Baltimore Wfilliej, was evidently from Gay New York, and should certainly have tried for the Mask and Wfig, where he would have been gladly received. ln proof of this we need only allude to his masterly rendering of those well-known classics, Mary's Wfil- lie and There Are No Flies On Us. Dugan Qalias Claude Melnotte Duganj was of a more melancholy tempera- ment,which seems strange, considering his French extraction, but which was prob- ably due to his ignorance of the art of matching pennies. Day after day, during a lono' hot s ell in the s rino' while he with Ebauffh Hanna and Pullman, was D P P sf 1 b 1 working in the technical room, he would find that it fell to his lot to go for ice cream. 'fIt's - - queer that you should have always to go, Dugan, Si Hanna would say, sympathetically, and as soon as Claude had disappeared out of the win- dow we would arrange that next day exerybody would turn up heads or tails, as the case might be, until Dugan came out odd. Every one admits that Dugan always was a very warm chemist, especially in combustions, and Mr. Wfallace to this day holds him up as a shining light to the juniors, who bless his memory accordingly. 187 Our third year brought three more recruits, two from science and technology, and one from afar. The latter, Ziegler by name, has so carefully hidden his sins that he can be accused of naught save of occasional profanity in the balance room, which would be perfectly excusable even in the oathless Ebaugh. Pemberton, although he never entered the assay room in a dress suit, as may have been stated by some, certainly did keep his collar on, which was an innovation appreciated only by Ober- holtzer, who was known to have similar eccentricities him- self. Those among us who are best versed in theology confi- dently expect that the future state will differ from assaying only by the absence of the hokey-pokey man. Last, but greatest, smallest but mig-htiest, comes Reming- ton, the honorable Percy Remington, president of the class and Ctell it not in Gathllj of the Y. M. C. A. Short as has been his abiding here, it is filled with evil deeds. Pullman has Q fa it a, 1, X X u bias H F..liGURStM1 t-in L 1 1 V P Xb? , Ehaeistsitrt nm K' g down to the Atlantic refinery, etc. Vickers also been known to swear, Hanna swears from morning to night, but Remington swears in chapel, Ebaugh has been seen with young ladies, Oglesby has brought them to the laboratory, but Remington corresponds with a mysterious maiden of malignant Manhattan, and so weiter, und so weiter. , Many were the trips made by the chemists under the watch- eye of Oberholtzer, and many are the tales that might be told about them. How Vechers himself shuddered at the horse meat displayed at the Horse Wfoi-ks, and told us that it reminded him-but that is another story, how we nearly arrested the man of the Norristown Glass 'Works, because Ebaugh absently appropriated Tyson's watchg how we carefully put Oberholtzer at the end of the line while passing through the beer vaults at Bergner and Engel'sg how Dugan rowed Ebaugh and others took ns to New York to see the Grant parade and incidentally to visit Squiblfs chemical works and Babbitt's soap factory. Here Pullman disappeared at about 4 o'clock VVed- ISS nesday afternoon, and was not seen again until the next day in Philadelphia. He said he came home on the midnight train, but so did Vickers, who did not see him there. Several close friendships were formed during the senior year, notably those between Ebaugh and Dugan, and between Remington and Baltimore W'illie, a philosophy student. lt is probable that Willie taught Percy the art of finger gymnastics, which he exhibited so often during the latter part of the year, especially when Dr. Smith was around. Ogelsby Cor Qggelsby, or Q'Glesby, as he was called by Pop Easton and Mr. Wfintersteenj held proudly g aloof from all frivolity, conscious of his unmixed Irish descent, and ' frowned down all attempts of Pullman to prove a like extraction. The +53 latter founded his claim, it is said, on having been recognized by a bar- - M keeper named Kelly, who set up the party Cfour or five chemistsj ' consequence. - I , Ebaugh developed a great talent for music during this year, and on -Q, I .J one occasion gave a concert to the engineers and chemists in Mr. VVin- . w 4 tersteen's room. A distinguished guest on this occasion was Dr. Josiah ' . if ' 'N T Harmar Penniman, who arrived just at the close of the performance. :rr l . . . It . -f If chemists are born. and not made, Hanna is certainly a chemist.

By using just the right expression, he can prevail upon a balance to weigh with the utmost accuracy whether the beam is straight or not. Distil- lation is his only weak point, which may prevent him from going into whisky, but cannot prevent whiskey from going into him. He has worn a coat of many colors since his last explosion, which also made it necessary for Dugan to give him a sponge bath in hyposulphite of soda. Dr. Fleck, although Hdisemboweledi' by the first set of papers we handed him on Qrganic Chemistry, has since performed a miracle equal to those of Mendeleiff, in getting through U , . 4 - - 1 , 1: ,- ,xy our heads a few of the mysteries of ISO111S1'1S1U, pyro reacting, etc., and in teaching us many a trick about organic analysis. 189 Dr. Smith has one bad habit. He literally appears at unexpected moments. Who interrupted one of the first games of chess that Hanna and Pullman ever played in the laboratory, while Mr. Vlfallace was serenely watch- ing the moves? Dr. Smith. VVho smiled beamingly down upon Pullman from the doorway while he was per- forming the Pilgrim's Chorus for the ninth time at the top of his voice? Dr. Smith. Whoa placed his hand cares- singly on Hannais shoulder as he was about to shout 'ibishop takes knight to Pullman while the latter was stok- ing his essay furnace? Dr. Smith. VVho usually appeared in the organic laboratory just as Ebaugh was going to take a swim in Houston Hall? Dr. Smith. But who taught us more chemistry than any one else, who has done more than any other for athletics at Pennsylvania, and who will be longer remembered by many a '98 man who does not know H2 0 from H2 S? I think we may safely answer, Dr. Smith. it 5' ,fi Q - . 2, 1 'lf I to llll as M tt tttttl att lllliflii all titvytttii tt tt trlttt tttltit itttlt it . , it , T gpm: ww! ll lllllllllll 'I Ili, u W vI 'll 1 I1 llllln 7' Hill, pnlnlvllh y pill' I Il 2 We R lt f' H it 'willllllllt T f r a' Z ' A If A 'Q ft fu ti u t 1 1'b'1 ' ft t T 'l 1' i t lftfllstll tt tt tilt tt ttf ltttl it it W tl ! it it 3' rl lt 1 1'f'f it 'T-film, i' ' ff? .- V'-Tm ':T TT?-'FTII in n mp lu. lllllljll HI 1 it Mf t tty , aiislWgUitMfri lt l'l.,ttt,.t it luv tt c idle :ff lxllllltll Nw QM X x l m uuml I ignzijzglpvzml IAIA V IH. if ft X nil Q QQ Q wise-F53 . 2- .Q Ninety-eight is not well represented in the Biological Department, but what it lacks in numbers it makes up in quality, for is not Randolph Fvans Bender McKenney enrolled in its ranks? McKenney is the Bi's great high Muckamuck now, and though his success in running the Doctor is not at all commensurable with his efforts in that line, yet it is certainly not his fault. McKenney fills Cornell's vacant chair, and though he has not that power of blatant conversation ad nauseam et ad infinituni-for which heaven be devoutly thanked-yet there is that same air of restrained power and intellect, that same superiority and condescension, the same graceful posesfof the master that has gone before. Now in the air of restful repose that hangs around the hall since Cornell's de- parture McKenney reigns supreme. Occasionally Cornell turns up at the Field Club meetings and McKenney's star wanes, but it has been rumored that McKenney induced his rival to drink some ofthe chocolate served around at those important functions, and ever since then Cornell has been absent. Thus did McKenney triumph, and so he always has done. McKen- ney's specialty is Field Club excursions and also trips of a more important nature. The Field Club excursions most- ly consist of some twenty co-eds, with Mclienney and a professor to act as chaperons. just what happens on these has never been positively ascertained, but it seems to consist mostly in wandering around thewoods and gathering things no one knows anything about. The whole class of '98 have been Past Grand Masters in this sort of thing, IQI , t M and reports are always suggestive of great success. The other excursions are still more clouded in mystery. lVVhat attracts Mclienney and Wfelsh to VVilmington is as yet unknown, but Githens is said to know something about that. ,Last year seems to have had a particularly important event in this line. Very few details about this especially ina teresting trip have leaked out, but two-thirds of '98, Fox, and a little of '99, besides some outsiders whom nobody knows anything about went along. It is a curious fact that before this Mclienney was regarded as decidedly un- impressionable, but now he blushes furiously at the mention of echoes and swift rivers. lust where the connection lies is a problem. Fox went also-but there, everybody knows about Fox. Besides being famous for field trips, Biological Hall is famous for co-eds. just why co-eds. should flock in such large numbers to it is an enigma, but such is the case. VVe all thought that when Cornell graduated it would cease, but it evidently has made no difference. Cutting 'upeiiicely pickled cats is a favorite amusement, and some of the specimens would make Chinaman's mouth water. From cats to corpses is an easy and natural step, and, if cats were fun, what could be said of these? But perhaps the less said the better. But soionf we all shall have to bid adieu to the BLU which, with its awful odors and desolate waste of oure kale-yard will always remain a pleasant vista of memory of all of us. be I wer wbservat rv lf YOU HTC H ,lunior in Arts taking Group Ii, or if you are a Senior Civil, along about the middle oi April the professor will take off his glasses and put them on again, open the drawer ol his table, take oit his glasses, hunt around for a while, put on his glasses, shut the drawer, take off his glasses, hunt through the books on the table, tind his note book, put on his glasses and take them off again on general principles, run through the pages of his book about eleven times, End the place. put on his glasses and then announce in slow, measured tones that Messrs, So-and-So will report at the Flower Observatory next Tuesday at 8.00 P. M. to make azimuth observations. And then he takes his glasses off again. You have had quite a little practice, by this time, but it all has been at the chicken-coop behind Biological Hall, known by courtesy as the ''Sub-Observatory, and so you await with consid- erable interest that which you are about to behold. In the first place it is necessary to reach the observatory. You can go via trolley, but it costs twenty cents and takes an hour plus each way. Besides that, the cars are like angels' visits, and after II o'cloclc they cease to be at all, and as you are exceptionally lucky ii you get through before II. the chances are that you don't trust to the trolleys. Ergo, you ride a wheel. Asphalt to Sixty-third street, pike the rest of the way, says Evans. and ,so it is, but that pike contains the worst bit oi road in the vicinity down at the bottom of the second hollow, and there are easier inclines in the world than that observatory hill. All of which things you learn to appreciate in due course of time. Wfhat is there out there when the trip has been successfully made? Much of interest, be it whether you are a hobbyist in human nature or astronomy. lf the latter is your forte you look at the buildings and the instruments --the professor will display them without very much urgingfand you will become very properly exuberant there- over. The big telescope- the only one of its size in the world that is non-locally corrected'l-and its house are the chief attraction, and many is the lair visitor who has been greatly distressed at the cruel neglect of any provision for keeping the latter at an equable temperature during tlie cold, cold winter nights. Near byx is the transit house, where one finds many lesser glasses of all shapes and sizes, including the pro'iessor's pet zenith telescope with its famous multiplex level- a man down in Washington says he made it, gentleman, but- -all as carefully blan- 193 keted as so many babies against the cold and damp. Also there are many other graphs and phones and scopes of uses known only to the learned, and among them over in one corner the big self-winding clock. And thereby hangs a tale. Among the many visitors to the observatory in the days gone by were some co-ed professors of more or less astronomical repute,to whom the professor exhibited everything from the beginning, including the telescopes, big, medium-sized and little, and, last of all, the clock. As they were walking towards it he 'expatiated and dilated upon the virtues of the same, telling of all the marvelous accuracy with which it performed its daily duties and the wondrous manner of its construction, so that for time incalculable it would continue to run. So with ardent attention the teachers lined up in front thereof. And then, for the first and only time in its history that clock stopped. After the visitors had departed, the professor remarked that he had heard that some persons' deficiency in fem- inine beauty could induce the stoppage of a clock, but that he never had seen it in practical operation before. If your specialty, however, is human nature, you have a field before you of uncommon interest in the trio that inhabit the observatory house and run the lunar inequalities to suit themselves. All are imported from Lehigh, and even Bethlehem occasionally astonishes us with what it can send forth. In the first place, according to the cat- alogue, there is Professor Charles L. Doolittle, C. E. He is the author of a book, among other things, noteworthy for the amount of work you can spend on a section without producing any apparent results and the entire absence of the slightest sense of humor from its pages. He has a very deliberate way of expressing his opinions that is a bit trying until you get used to it, and an exceedingly low-pitched, steady, unwavering voice that brings up at the end of each sentence with a snap that causes you to jump the first time you hear it. He is said to be able to teach a student more of his subject than is anyother man in the faculty, and as yet there is no successful attempt at bluffing him on record. His special mania is the wanderings of the North Pole. Next to him in rank is Eric, son of the above, and as different from him as different can be. Wfhen you are first introduced to him you have so many emotions at once that it becomes necessary to wait until you have a chance to label and classify them before you can form an opinion. You feel somehow or other that you will like him, but the feeling is coupled with a sense of wonder at his discovery of what can be done with the human voice by introducing nine infiexions on each word. Also at first you wish that when he reaches the end of a sentence he wouldn't fly around like a steel spring. But in due course of time you forget all about these little eccentricities and meanwhile you make a few discoveries. Firstly, that while he is very rarely mistaken on any subject, if you and he 194 think differently about it, he will always say that he is in the wrong. Secondly, that it never seems to occur to him that he isn't expected to do four times as much work as you do in your computations. If you should ask him to compute the irregularities of Venus from the beginning he would sit up all night at it and then apologize for not having inished. And, thirdly, that you are doing 1HO1'6 work in his department than you ever dreamt of doing for any one else. It is some time before this last dawns upon you, and even then it doesn't particularly displease. Number three is Evans-he of the rubber boots and the monumental forehead. He teaches you how to play various interesting games with the sextant and how to spend hours in an icy wind over a surveyors, transit, trying ro nnd Polaris and the field wires at thc same time. Talqiuo' it all around, it would be difficult to find three more Oenerallv 'wreeable and satisfactor f instructors 5 V b c r C D c c 5 than those ofthe Astronomical Department. But it's no place for a lazy man. 3 fe li ii JM. fy V , L . ,La Q ,i,l -K :LF T- W-S ith the acultv-wan tber Schwatt-Ach, Meestair Breenton, you was a Fine fellow, but you vill neier make a good mathematician. jab-Wfell, Doctor, after I die I may come back again as a good mathematician.

To be the greatest class which has ever graced Pennsylvania was always '9S's object, and never was an object so gloriously attained. In many particulars have we fulfilled every requirement and left a lasting name and fame for ourselves. And among our greatest glories have ever been our dances. Every one the most unques- tionable success, every one a thing of beauty and of joy until the morning, every one the standard of all that is to come, and the example through countless ages of the only right and proper methods of giving dances. Realizing our infinite capacity for doing things properly, Houston Hall was finished for us in time for the Sophomore, and there in those regions of classic beauty and romantic repose, on the thirtieth of December, eigh- teen hundred and ninety-five, we held the admiration and wonder of the whirling throng for many hours. Char- ley Hutchinson was chairman that night, and that helped the occasion. Charley always had a nameless grace in his methods which insured success. The rest of the committee were his dutiful followers, and they made that dance the greatest Sophomore ever given. Does not your blood thrill as you think of it? 'When we had grown up to be Juniors, Arthur Gerhard, having taken lessons from Hutchinson, became the chairman of the same committee, and he piloted us to another success. The Junior ball had a background of many obstacles, but they form a setting for a most brilliant jewel. In spite of the fact that jupiter Pluvius was angry with us and so poured out his wrath in perfect torrents, and in spite of the fact that there might have been more people at Houston Hall on lWashington's Birthday, 'ninety-seven, the junior was a social success. Does not your blood thrill at the thought-of the thousands of goodly ducats' the committee lost? But far outshining our previous success, and far outshining every other previous success. '98's lvy Ball will 201 .L Vw l go down to history as the greatest, most beautiful, most wonderful of all college dances ever known! Witli Frank Milne as chairman, and the plump and plucky Caleb, of the family of Cresson, as treasurer, the committee Went to work. For weeks they planned and labored. In silent marvel the uninitiated were amazed to hear how Char- ley Patterson sold tickets by the handful, how Caleb conquered caterers 'and decorators, how Milne secured the most beautiful pints ever idreamed of, and all the other wonders. Horticultural Hall was chosen. for the seat of the revels, and we showed what could be done there by a class thoroughly competent to give a dance. The hall was a fairyland on that momentous night in january, lN'ednesday, the ifth, forever blessed, and it was filled in nook and corner with stately matrons, the 'fairest of Philadelphia's daughters and the best of her sons. Never was such a dance, never was such happiness in accord with music, never such unrestrained joy bubbling up and burst- ing out, filling all the atmosphere with its subtle sweet poison. And away in the wee small hours, when we all wished that Dark nights purblind steeds XYould pull her by the purple mantle back, And cast her in Nic ocean to her love, the music died away andthe throng went forth regretfully, with eargerly arising memories of joys never to be forgotten and never to be equaled. Permsylvanian Board f, Z fs, The Penn lvanlan X C , ' . ,,... i Q 4 A is , l 0 i WW Q The Pennsylvanian is a newsQ?lpaper published daily in the interest of the students of the University of Penn- sylvania. Ghfe mention this fact because you might not otherwise know it.j As a curiosity the Peniisylvaniau is interesting, and in case you have not read it, which is probable since no one ever does read it, we advise you to pick one up some clay from the Hoof of College Hall. Most striking of all the original features of this remark- able publication is the conservative attitude which its editors maintain in emulation of their prototype the Rants Hornf' No yellow journalism for them, no flaunting headlines, no red ink, no questionable news, why, the mere suggestion of such horrors causes the editor-in-chief to whisper an Hail Mary and cross himself. Through all the classes of a busy world the Pennsylvanian circulation 29 aan-y goes peacefully on its way, and, to avoid the mere semblance of radicalism, only such news is printed as appeared two weeks before in the Harvard Crimson and was not contradicted by the Yale News. if Now when that redeeming feature of 'Q'j', Charles the Great, the youthful prodigy, had inveighed against every abuse his fertile brain could conjure up, and had editorialized about every shrub on the campus, he felt that his sphere of usefulness was contracting, so he called a meeting of the Pennsylvania Board and delivered the pa- per to '98 Some reckless spirits of socialistic and anarchistic tendencies felt that more advanced journalistic meth- ods should govern the future policy, so Arthur Gerhard, who claimed to have originated the Yellow Kid, was offered the retiring editor's chair. NVith tears in his eyes, Arthur bewailed that press of studies prevented him from accepting, and when all had been resuscitated from the shock of so outrageous a statement, in view of the source, the culprit had fled to Ardmore. Crushed by the conduct of their leader, the radical wing succumbed be- 205 fore the Prohibitionists and the Y. M. C. A. contingent,who amid Allelujahs of joy exalted jasper Yeates Brinto n to the dignity of editor-in-chief. jab was an unsophisticated young thing in those days, so panting with a sense of his own greatness, he ran right home and peeped in the mirror. Finding he looked as much like an lndian as ever, he abandoned this di- version and read Schelling's notes on Daniel Defoe and the Great journalists. The following morning a pol- ished editorial announced the continuance of that dignified appearance and conservative attitude which has al- ways been a characteristic of the Pennsylvanianf' Then the twenty-nine subscribers groaned. Although jab is a Young Man Christian Associated, he is niot entirely devoid of good qualities. He is con- scientious, poor fellow, a fatal characteristic for an editor of the Pennsylvanian, and one that kept him on the verge of the grave during his time of ofhce. lt has always been a source of bewilderment to the big-eyed fresh- man how so many typographical errors could occur in one little paper. As they grow older they reach the con- clusion that the editors who set up may hatch eggs or treat to drinks, but never correct proof. Now the con- scientious jasper thought to remove these blunders, so he proclaimed in the wonderful first editorial that they should be eliminated. Unhappily it was printed eleminated. And the twenty-nine subscribers grinned. The Pennsylvanian never received a hearty support from '98, which accounts for its failure to assume a more commanding position in the community. There was Charlie Langstroth, a bright journalistic light, but after the election for editor-in-chief he resigned-purely a coincidence, of course. Ray Smith, again, is a man of latent in- tellectual force, but his energy in behalf of his college organ was always of a potential nature. His name, there- fore, remained among the associate editors, to lend respectability to that disorderly collection of idlers. The func- tion of these embryo reporters was to gather news, so they would repair to the pool room and listen for rumors. Frank Swartley, who intended to become a journalist until he joined the Pennsylvanian staff, would often tear his hair at the sight of such lack of enterprise, for Frank is one of those hustling, bustling fellows who imagine they have a capacity for business. He would frequently stride into the office and find perhaps Muller, dozing. Muller represents the medical department because he had not energy to resign on leaving college. XK7hat, ho, Muller, shouts Swartley, in that archaic diction which he neglected to leave at Dickinson, hast plenty of words for to- morrow's issue? Two hundred, drawls the enervated one. Idiot, dost not know we must have three thous- and, and the belfry tolls five of the hours. I guess there won't be any paper to-morrow, says Muller, and re- lapses into slumber. Swartley sits down with s icl VO' ' l' ' l 1 1 i xigoi as to neat the chair, upsets the glue, covers himself with ink, and after two hours deep thought writes a long advertisement of Tannhaeuser beer. tThere are sev- eral ways of filling a college papeixj In spite of great ingenuity in this respect, however, there were frequent 206 heartburnings in the editor-'s sanctum and tragic mutterings of suicide. Happily the frequent bulletins issued by the promoters of the Norsemen, and the many scandals connected with that abortive thought of a disordered in- tellect, tided over the worst period until the editor-in-chief conceived the brilliant idea of publishing lists of all the portraits in the chapel with lives of the subjects, little heraldic researches into their family history, and a 'list of all surviving collateral relatives to the seventh degree. NVhile the news department was thus being made instructive as well as enlivening, Brinton was wasting his young life and contracting churchyard cough, in a mad endeavor to produce editorials that would not draw forth querulous notes from the elongated professor of English literature. jasper has a deep reverence for mem- bers of the faculty, and whenever he met one he would fall on his knees and strike his head on the floor in sign of submission, but in spite of this self abasement of a large bundle of abusive letters arrived every morning commenting on little errors of the day before. Here would be a caustic one from the Dean: Dear Mr. Brinton: It is customary to print Doctor of Divinity as D. D., not D--d. is the Pennsylvanian progressive or merely facetious? i Another would read:- I inclose ycsterday's Pennsylvanian with 147 errors underscored on the first page. I am pleased to see this improvement, but there is still room for a little care. fab has been known to loose his temper on these trying occasions, and once he said Hd- the facultyf' but that was only once. As a rule he forgot his troubles in the delights of creating an editorial. This wonderful pro- cess began at IO A. M. and by 8 at night with no intermission for lunch or dinner, it would occur to the fevered brain of the editor that Mr. Bellows, of the Arizona division of the Salvation Army, would address the Students Meeting the following evening. Then down would come the set of rubber stamps marked with such necessary words as Alma Mater, We Urge, Student Body and so on, which would quickly be impressed on a sheet of paper, the order being determined by casting dice. It would 'now remain only to fill in the gaps, so jab would take his book of synonyms and go ahead, first having discovered the initial letter of his article by throwing a lemon peel on the floor. Through these ingenious methods all but the last line would be ready by two in the morning. Impossible to wait longer, so with a note on the margin to turn the last line upside down and blur, fab, a raving maniac by this time, would rush up to Avilis and throw the manuscript at the head of the blas- pheming printer. 207 In spite of all its failings the Pennsylvanian reached its highest degree of prosperity under the management of '98, and was resigned amid a blaze ol glory. its achievements during the last few weeks of Brinton's reign were something stupendous and well merited the plaudits ol the multitude. Vllith prophetic foresight the difficulties that awaited our debaters at Ithaca were foreseen, and hence the inter-class debates were instituted by the Pennsyl- vanian in order to arouse interest in the contest with Cornell, The vote of that one enlightened judge, that very Daniel of a judge. may be directly traced to this piece of wisdom. Most wonderful of all. however, was the erec- tion in the chapel of a memorial tablet to the nrst graduating class ol the University. Vtfith hated breath one should speak of this glorious achievement. for it will live in history. It is said that Brinton obtained the idea in a dream while sleeping at a Y. M. C. A. meeting, but whether divinely inspired or not, we know that he issued his orders one morning and like so many vultures the editors swooped down on the student body and only desert- ed the carcass when not a cent was left. Then a beautiful piece ol marble was bought and tacked to the chapel, and jasper sat in a state of beatitude while Dr. Furness eulogi7ed the men who were commemoiated 1 tl . - i i ' ant ie 1 '7 Provost eulogized the men who had caused the commemoration.

Indeed a gentleman whose name we are not at liberty to reveal informs us that there is no ground for the asser- tion, for the space has not been paid for even yet. But at any rate, we were proud to see the faces of our class- mates in such artistocratic columns. To think that we, members of the freshman class, should posses the only per- sons in the whole University competent to manage and edit a great and thriving XWeek'ly journal of College Life. lfVe never got quite accustomed to the dignity to which we had arrived. It never seemed quite right, when we looked into the cubby hole back of the gymnasium Qwhere Dr. Miller now holds forth with his tape measure and testing machinesj to see Siegfried in the editorial sanctum. But we had to believe it, for there he sat, with the massive brow and supreme melancholia of greatness, tilted back in his chair, his feet on the sacred desk, but recently hallowed by a senior's pen, a pair of shears at his right-hand and a paste pot at his left. Our Siegfried, Ninety-eight's Siegfried, was positively the only editor of a college periodical ever elected while in his freshmen year -what must the rest of the college have been, if we green, innocent, thoughtless creatures Cfor We admit that We have each year possessed some of the ear marks of our speciesj were the best people in the place?

A: : l ,. 1 l l, I .AL ,f'-'L W'ith our arrival the whole tone of the college was changed, improved and elevatedg and now, we venture to as- sert, there are journalists in the junior class of the college as good as we were in our freshman year. Sophomore year brought a change to the Courier and an increased glory to the class. From having the only freshman editor on record, we advanced a step and possessed Cstill in the hands of our brilliant sonsj the only building in the world devoted to a college publication. 'When you go down Wfoodland avenue look up at 3455- at the Association of Quiz Masters and imagine the brilliant sign that stretches all the way across the second- story, as it was originally. when the- University Courier started out from it in letters of gold. Even now, loolc up at the transom over the door and 'see the name that still identifies the building- The Courier Building. And this was another result of Ninety-eight's constructive statesmanship. The real pride of the Courier and the class was bustling Eddie Slease. He was always busy working with his solicitors or bossing the office boys or Qoccasionallyj going to his recitations. Once Cafter he had left usj, it is rumored, he tool: an examination in the medical department and received a first mention. Great was his exultation over this victory, for not everyone can get a first mention in bandaging-and on it he based his repu- tation during the rest of his natural college life. i Our other contributions to the Courier in sophomore year were Freddy Paxson and George Knipe, multi- elassed George. Cf the former, the less said the better, he wrote the poetry that the Courier needed to hll the corners of its pages and he composed Ctis saidj, the soap and shoe string ads that the advertisers wanted. He fell even lower in junior year, he went on the Red and Blue. And of Knipe. the more said, the less adequate to his just merits. Wfe, with our faulty genius, are unable to do him justice, so we let him alone, referring the reader to the ,Q7 Record for reference to him. As sophomore year developed, our editor had to leave the Courier, and his office fell into the capacious hands of the business manager, Edward Crawford Slease. But he too passed away at Easter, and the golden haloed Tommy Orbison, a chronic football sub, was called from the Medical Department to take his place. VVith the brains of Ninety-eight gone from its staff, the Courier could no longer survive.and when, at the end of the sophomore year, it fell into the hands of the Y. M. C. .X Caddress I. P.

It was in january of 1896 when the Editorial Board of our college literary occasionally met the enemy and became theirs, or in other words when they decided that thelRed and Blue was unable to exist longer with- out the editorship of some members of the class of Ninety-eight. And, therefore, they elected upon the afore- said staff Messrs. W'illiam Adams McClenthen and jasper Yeates Brinton. Both had incontrovertible claims to election, for Mac had once helped the editors stack some back numbers of the paper, while Jap was a personal friend of Eberlein. So striking was their literary ability that the board was moved by a burning curiosity to see if the balance of the class was not as per sample, and there were elected in due sequence Messrs. Easton, Haney and Paxson. And then, deciding that any more such genius would swamp the paper, no further ,98 men favored. And this quintette certainly possessed very rare abilities Cfor which there is cause for thanksgivingj. Brintofn wrote voluminous historical and archaeological articles on subjects of burning interest to himself. Haney produc- ed melodramatic stories on hypnotism and Chicago slum life. Uohn has never been west of North W'alesj. Pax- son dabbled largely in college verse, concerning which consult XNe1sh's articles for valuable comments, and Easton's specialty was stories Cover a nom de plumej, which Brooke declared too immoral for publication in the ,columns of the paper. Mads literary task was decidedly eclectic. He wrote theological poetry, he wrote ar- ticles on artistic criticism, he wrote stories of Philadelphia society with real characters in them Qafter one of which stories Mac almost had two duels on his handsj, he wrote panegyrics on cynicism, he wrote sketches, he wrote numberless editorials of a general character, and so vast was his versatility that all was done to his own entire satisfaction. Such were our literary athletes, February in junior year was the turning point in the history of the paper, for then it was that Mr. Arthur S. 213 Brooke resigned the editor-in-chiefship, like some great king abdicating before his day Qvide editorial on the sad event by Macj, and Mr. Wlilliarn Adams lXlcClenthen was chosen to succeed him. Mac at this time was spending a few months in the Hotel Municipale, to which he had retired shortly before the examinations, and in his absence the board requested Easton to run the paper during the prolongation of the young gentleman's com- plaint. Easton took the honor with great equanimity, as usual, and, after a six hours, lecture by Brooke on the proper grouping of crocodiles rampant and the horrors o four point Jensen, got out the March number in time for XNashington's llirthday. The appearance of the number had a very marked effect in hastening Macs conval- escence, although Easton rushed the April number through before he finally bribed the city bacteriologist and escaped. The even tenor of the way was then resumed. 1 Under the new administration the general appearance of the paper underwent a grand transformation. Gude- man's Some Features of Classical lilistoriiigraphy decided the board to exclude articles by the faculty thence- forth and forever. Even -laps Biographical Sketches of the Stunts of Provost Smith were received with disfa- vor, and now the principal features of the numbers were thrilling events of frontier life, incidents in the Quartier Latin, and bits of college life in which red roses and visiting cards played the most prominent roles. Senior year opened under these auspices with a grand llourish of trumpets and the triumphant announcement that the num- ber of small illustrations would be increased. The next two months were consumed in a scrap between Easton and Mac, principally on the subject of ornamentation. Mac could not conceive of the possibility of an article without a pre-Raphaelite griffen under it to fill up the rest of the page, while to Easton, brought up under the rigid school of Brooke, this was rank heresy. Also Mac labored under the impression that as editor-in-chief he should be allowed some voice in the manage- ment of the paper, which Easton-here not prompted by l3rooke's example-regarded as an attempted usurpation of his own rights. And so, in November, Burt came to the conclusion that his sterling worth was not properly appreciated and took a tearful leave of the board, which got over the shock and elected jones to succeed him. Mac was left alone, alone, all, all alone, to swear at the compositors over at Avil's and after getting out two more numbers he gave up the effort and relaxed the burden into the arms of Hemphill. PPERS At '9S's class supper in Freshman year there was the usual full attendance. Wfe were all there, none being kept away by either an unusual obstacle in the shape of a heavy snow-storm, or the usual obstacle of kidnap- ping Sophomores. Even Dick Lister managed to get there, although it must have cost him some effort, to judge by the lateness of the hour at which he arrived and the condition he was in. It transpired afterwards that he had been treated to a free ride in a cab for about three miles Cin a direction away from Boldt'sj and had only escaped from his generous upper-class friends by the ruse of falling out the door and boarding a rapidly moving trolley car. lt didn't matter much, as Dick arrived in time to respond to a toast on the eminently appropriate subject of Class Spirit. This toast was also verv ably discussed by several other members of the class. Nothing occurred during the whole evening to mar the enjoyment of the occasion. Perhaps, however, that is too broad a statement, exceptions should be made of the puns made by our toastmaster, Howard Butcher. and ofthe willingness to which the toast on Grinds was responded to. A source of great regret on the part of the class, although undoubtedly one ot as great joy to the Committee, was the insignificant size ot the bill for breakage. It seems that there is a definite relation between the two quantities, breakage and good time-as the former grows so does the latter-but which is the cause and which the result is a problem which even B. Scott Easton 215 couldn't solve. Butcher and the dampening effect of strict decorum, however, were more than overcome by the good speeches and by the fact that none were being violently kept away. The key to the grand success of the Sophomore supper is found in three words-FISH HOUSE PUNCH- which were printed in two-inch letters in the centre of the menu, quite overshadowing everything else on the page. Ah, that punch was worthy of Bacchus himself! No lily-liveredi, Freshman drink was it, but the real old-fashioned knock-'em-outn of Colonial times. In fact the recipe, which Caleb Cresson obtained from the diary of his great- great-grandfather, ran as follows: Ye best Burgundy, three-tenlths parts, ditto Madeira, ye gin from ye Blue Bell Taverne, one-half, ye Moonshiner whiskey, one-fourth part, ye rest of ye pure alcohol with a touch of claret to im- part beauty to ye drink. All that came before the punch was preparatory, all that came after was the result. Of course we tried to have toasts, but they fell rather flat Qi. e. the speakersj. Charley Hutchinson, the toast-master, insisted on huggin,g the punch-bowl and his office had to be dispensed with. Howard Butcher, the only man at the table who belonged to the Blue Ribbon Crowd, was not allewed to speak because he was sober, A. VV. Smith was not allowed to speak because he insisted on standing on the president's head, while Atkins, who was' to re- spond to Nothing, did that to perfection. The only successful speaker of the evening was Teddy Stoyle, who told us thirty-tive excellent stories, thirty-five of which were ! Caleb Cresson tried to sing the Pennsylva- nia Girl, but was completely choked by a biscuit, aimed by Eddie Sohm, and the result of this insult was an amusing battle, in which Eddy came off victorious with Caleb's coat-tails. Taking it all in all, our Sophomore orgy was the event of a century, and the reader will be interested to know the city authorities shortly after the great event placed '98 Punch on the contraband list with opium. junior Banquet was held at the Colonnade, and although but slimly attended, quite made up in conviviality what it lacked in numbers. f'I'll ne'er be drunk save in honest, civil, pious companyf' read the quotation at the bottom of the third page of the menu, and as Chip, Lister and Atwood came under this definition, there is no ques- tion but that all the facilities were provided,-and employed. Near the head of the table there was a red lamp, and so carefully had Reinoehl seated the men that all that above the lamp remained in a normal condition, while those below were mostly more or less Crather more than lessj exhilarated. After the dinner proper had been consci- entiously discussed and Atwood had arrived at the stage where he was eager about informing the entire universe concerning things in general and Atwood in particular,Siegfried arose to start the speeches going. After a few pre- liminary remarks to which Hutchinson listened carefully, he called on Brinton to speak on the class. Iab's efforts were greeted with applause by McGrath and W'ise, no one else paying the slightest attention to them, and the toast 216 was drunk by Easton Cin ginger alej, jab Qin claret punchj and Lee Solomon Qin a very large mouthful of cham- pagnej. During the next few speeches the exuberance certainly did not wane and the flow of eloquence was of a somewhat hazy character, and as the evening progressed speaking was a delight indeed. Lister was down on the program to orate on the ladies, but the speech had to be omitted owing to the somewhat uncertain articulation of that individual when his turn came. Chip undertook to substitute for him and began a flowing discourse from an elevated position on the table until he was removed by Wfest, special agent of the S. P. C. A., on duty fo-r the evenin.g. McGrath also had a toast to deliver, and although in condition, was somewhat embarrassed at being calmly picked up off the ground and held in mid-air while his efforts were in progress. Light-fingered Leeu Solomon then had a sudden attack of generosity and walked leisurely about the room pouring champagne over whom he could. At which point the proceedings came to a sudden end. But Senior year saw the greatest of them all. Fifty-live men, including Dean Penniman and Profs. Mar- burg, Smith and johnson, sat down in the long room on the second floor of the Stenton and right royally did they enjoy themselves. At the head of the long horseshoe sat Shortness McGrath, supported by the Dean and Percy Remington, and on each side ran the long line of dress shirt fronts down to the ends. Everybody came. Cross came because Easton's eloquence at a class meeting had convinced him that he could not conscientiously stay away. Elliott came because it was a good enough way of spending three dollars. Watson came because Elliott did. Martell came because there would be something to eat. The Civils came in a bunch because that way they could have Marburg. The Wfharton School came in a bunch on general principles. And everybody else came for the reason that they would have a good time. So everybody was there. Easton had spent hours trans- lating the menu into French pro bono scholae whartoniensis, and therefore nobody was prejudiced at what they Qwere eating, even Haney inquiring in doleful tones when the Punch Romain came on as to whether this was the Cailles en Casserolef, Atwood was kept away at the last moment and so the duty of supporting Chip and Lister in conviviality de- volved upon Stoyle and right nobly did he acquit himself, in fact no objection can be raised to the manner in which any of the trio acquitted himself. Chip was scarcely in an oratorical humor when his speech came, and so Penni- man took his place, gracefully remarking that he was nlling the position of a young gentleman who had succeeded in filling everything else, including himself, and treated us to a splendid disquisition on deanships, theoretical and practical. After johnny VVise had dilated upon the time when he was a Freshman, Prof. Smith told us all about the athletic situation, and after that joe johnson advised all to study journalism, for it was an exceptional profes- 217 ilu lulic: for a ccmsccutivc pcriocl of time and became t sion and had proclucccl him.

Nintey-seven's cremation lasted exactly twenty minutes by the watch and was ehiedy remarkable for the number of interestinv' features that were omitted. Ol l99's so-called cremation the least said is decidedly the D best, the most prominent characteristics being the way in which no one appeared to know what was coming next and the introduction of elements suited to a ninth-rate vaudeville show. Nl1lGlIj'-Q1g'lllI,?1t1S a curious thing how nearly all the respectable classes at Penn have borne even numerals-consult history for examples-'98, then, is prominent as the class which was able to give a cremation which on the one hand was interesting, and which on the other hand did not afford material for a case in the libel courts. Taking it all around the greatest task was the selection of a crematee, not from the lack of one suitable, but from the very embarrassment of riches. At first Noble seemed a ne plus ultra candidate, indeed it is questionable whether a more well rounded or perfect whole could have been desired. but we were relieved from the curse of his mis-administration in March. Tatnall was proposed, but was ruled to be not worth the trouble. Schwatt 219 volunteered, but there were too many reasons for debarring him. Zeus was almost what we wanted, but lacked universality of application. The M. Ffs offered us Picolet, but as the rest of the college inquired Wl1o in Prince- tonzt is Bicolet? 'he was likewise declined. A final vote decided' on Professor F. Emmanuel Schelling, but as two weeks of ,98 had rendered it advisable for that gentleman to go abroad to recuperate, we used as his representative, Dr. Homer Smith. Behold now the story of his dismissal from the realms of earth. The night was dark and cloudy was the sky, a pale moon, full as many of the class, gave out but a htful gleam, and all around was desolate and dead, when the class of 1898 slowly entered Franklin Field to the melancholy strains of HFlee Like a Bird to the Mountains as rendered by Eddie Beale. Clad were we in garb of demons, resolute unto deeds of mighty daring, strong and stalwart under the weight of our dread duty and preceded by Teddy Sohm. Arrayed in garb of picturesque confusion Qfurnished by Miller 8 Co., costumes and full dress, suits to hireg terms reasonablej, did he, our noble, chief, lead his undaunted legions about Franklin track, even around the whole quarter mile, while in the midst of the sad cortege, was a hearse, pale even unto ghastly whiteness, bearing in its dread womb a figure the execra- tion and scorn of all, even the figure of the caitiff crematee. XVhen the diresome procession had fully traversed the course and the last notes of that sad wail Her Golden Hair 'Was Hanging Down Her Back had died away, did Teddy stand forth and exhort his trueknown followers unto vengeance to be wreaked upon the fell persecu- tor of the class. And the more pointedly to emphasize his adjuration did Fred Baxson, vested in pea green tights, sky blue Continental coat, tricolor sash and chapeau three feet high-a most impressive figure-call upon the mul- titude to preserve strict silence while the proofs of the tl'2Ll'EO1'iS guilt were made manifest, which was performed in the style the guileless peculiar to Percy Remington, president of the Y. M. C. A. and chorus master of the Mask and Wig. CSic!j. And when the convincing and overwhelming proofs of guilt were laid before us, a groan of horror froze upon our lips, and with muffled threats of vengeance hissed between our clenched teeth did we withdraw a beseeming distance to note that which was now even in the imminence of unfolding itself. Nor were our expectations deluded, for upon the scene entered there the gentleman in whose existence Rennert has no belief, and whose identity could not be mistaken owing to the scarlet cloak and plume. Nor was he alone, for with him was his twin, followed by two faithful satellites. KN. B. This is positively the only appear- ance of Longwell as a devilj And then did they unfold a tale of treachery so inhuman that small wonder there was at the metaphorical boiling of our blood within us. In Satanic triumph rent they the soft harmony of the f'tThey did not say Princeton,3' but the words are synonymous. 220 spheres with diabolic laughter-Easton's rendition of Mephisto savored almost as much of that gentleman as had his rendition of David in the preceding November-and climacted was their victory to its most utterconsummation in the appearance of Homer to relate the story of his achievements. Wfhere outside of Princeton could such an- other trio be found? And upon our chill frozen ears descended the tale of the crimes of Homer related by him- self and gloated over in ghoulish glee hy the accursecl. tribe. And then we seized him from the shelter of his pro tecting friends! Ha! ha! Over the rest of the story hangs the veil of charity. Homer's paltry defense was shat tered, and then- The next day dawned calm and fair over all the world. But in one corner of Franklin Field there was a heap of ashes. J Nh V 'Y .J -M U -7-L.. - as .. 'i ' lei' Howsnal- ' ' l.'RlMO. QQ7 thought she knew how to conduct a bowl-tight. 5 F97 suffered from a large number ot hallucinations during the four years' martyrdom she intlicted on a poor, innocent, long-suffering college. By the time mid- years were over we had learned exactly how little 'Q7 was worth in any and all respects and so we were not par- ticularly worried about what sort ot a contest we were about to have. llartol was small, plump, and didn't have any sharp corners to knock off against anything, and seemed a likely candidate for the position of bowlman. In order to test his endurance we laid him down on the ground and piled Calver and about tive hundred pounds of other dead weight on him. After tiltecn minutes of this he asked for a cigarette. So we concluded that he would be exactly what we were after and he was elected to the eminence he desired. 7Q7 had expected that we COLlllll'1ytl'-llltl any one who would tit the place, but when the news was spread that our man was chosen they began to grow uneasy and to procrastinate. They wanted just a little more time- Essig was unwell and they had to have some immovable object to put in our way. Then the weather was damp, and they were afraid we might catch cold. Then the press of work that most ot their men had to undergo in pass- ing re-exams was very trying and they were afraid that they couldnt out-number us more than six or seven to one. Wfe were courteous and willing to give them ti1ne to gather sufficient courage to allow us to say that we had been in at least a similitude of a fight. But when it came to their suggestion that the fight be postponed until july we gently but firmly drew the line. So they gathered around Mahoney like young lambs around the shep- herd and he talked them into enough strength so that they put on football suits in a halt-hearted sort of a way and went out to the Old Field and waited. lVe dressed at our ease and were formulating plans for the annihilation of ,Q7 forever when a messenger arrived post haste to tell us that their men were deserting rapidly and it we were 'VJ9 Eve minutes' longer we 8110111111111 l:lllll any one to meet us. Lest such a catastrophe should oceur we hurried Over without fully completing Olll' Zl.1'1'Z11lgClllClltS, and to tl1is a1one is it C1116 that Ellly 'Q7 111e11 were left alive. Bartol was duly lll'E1'OClLlCCLl to tl1e bowl and we lined 11p on opposite sides of tl1e field. After tl1e wl1istle was blow11 we waited for awhile to see whether the Sophomores XVOlllC,l do anything or 11ot. As tl1ey didn't seem to be disposed to take any action, we held a consultation as to tl1e best means of stirri11g them up, a11d as a res11lt Bartol strolled leisurely o11t to the midclle ol the Held and i11v1ted 'Q7 to p11t 111111 111 tl1e bowl. A 13211156 followed a11d then in sl1eer desperation he folded his arms 211111 'lay down. Finally we walked over toward tl1e Sophomores, who broke and Hed at Olll' aproach, and. run as we would, we COL1lCl1li'E catcl1 Elllzv' of them except lhfoodbury, and he wasn't worth tl1e trouble. liartol got 11p 111 a disgusted sort of a way and said that he had l1ad enough of the mud and was going back to college to lll21liC a 3 o'clock hour and departed. So we decided to have a look at tl1e bowl. Then we discovered tl1at '97 had excavated part of tl1e held a11d had buried tl1e bowl in ni11e feet of mud. VVise Zlllfl Vincent we11t over to the tool house and borrowed some shovels and we set to work to dig tl1e thin.g out, b11t as tl1e task was impossible in the Iifteen minutes allowed to us we gave it Llp as too laborsome, and tl1e iight was de- clared al 1'drawl Such is justice. SECONDO. lf 197 had bee11 afraid of 11s there are no words in the English language capable of describing '99's trepida- tio11. In the hrst place, they wanted to give tl1e ight up entirely, on tl1e ground tl1at the Athletic Association wo111ch1't let 11s dig 11oles 111 Franklin Field, a11d tl1e old held was so hard that somebody migl1t get bruised. Then they Cl61'll2l11ClCCl that tl1e affair sl1o11ld be 11111 on a strictly business basis a11d gover11ed by tl1e following code of r11les: ,, I. The Fre's11111en 1'1CSCl 1101 disclose tl1e identity of the bowhnan, b11t tl1e Sophomores sl1all lose tl1e fight if they to11cl1 any one else. 2. The F1'CSl11T1C1'1 may 11se sledge l1amn1ers to break the bowl. 3. Any Sophomore fighting less tl1a11 t11ree P1'CSl'llTlC11 sl1all be disbarred. In the third of tl1ese rules we tinally acquiesced, but withstood the others. ,QQ also l1lSlS'ECLl tl1at all specta- tors n111st keep off the field lest tl1ey injure the Freslimen by stepping o11 tl1em. Also that all spectators be charged a quarter each to help defray l1ospital expenses. To tl1is we did 1101 object because we sl1ould get some recon1- pense for our trouble-possibly tl1e price of tl1e bowl.

'99, wishing to save Harrison's life, had a rope entanglement drawn across the Held, through which we were unable to crawl in time to catch him before he climbed the fence. He can do the 4.40 ordinarily in about fifty seconds, but it is said that on this day he made it in a triHe under twenty-nine and four-iifths, breaking all known records. Then we lined up around the bowl and told ,QQ to come on or we would--. Animated with the desperation of despair they threw themselves on us, and made things quite entertaining for a little while. jab Brinton, fired with a desire to display his manly ligure, had gone into the fight clad in as little as possible-and his desire was certainly gratified, for he came out of it ih nothing at all-in which costume he wandered back to college. Several other members of the class were also I1OtCP worthy for their eagerness in appearing in airy robes of sunshine and mud and, taking it all around, we had enough exercise to limber us up a little before we choked the last Freshman and took the bowl back to College Hall to dust it a little before having it framed.

So well pleased were the staid Seniors and Juniors of Philo with the highly-explosive, points-of-orderly specimen of a Freshman that two others were immediately elected-Langstroth, I. H., and Y. Brinton, our so-called jab. Up to this time Arthur Wfeil, that Storza of Philo, had been at the helm of the society, but great was the downfall oi that unfortunate mem- ber of '96 after the arrival of those three Freshmen. ,QSJS first real service to Philo was also the occasion which finally established her absolute control over the des- tinies of that memorable society. The circumstances were thus: Burt Easton and Charley Langstroth wanted to have a spread Ca reception with eatablesj to follow the society's commencement exercises, but the powers that were said no. Then did the humble grow bold and overthrow the powers that wereg a spread was given, Ash- 227 i l l t i l l P l r 1 hurst, of ,95, lost a bet of tive to one, and Brintonis mother's best punch bowl was cracked. Pomp says that never before had Philo had such a crowd at her commencement. Even more important has been the part played by '98 in the annual debates with Zelo. Before her time there had been only one debate, which Philo had lost. But the benign presence of '98 seems to have exerted a Whole- some influence on the tone of debating, for Philo has won every debate since. The first member of ,QS to hold office was Jasper Brinton. The society elected jab secretary, because his handwriting was the only legible one in Philo, and, besides, his signature looked so artistic at the end of the minutes. This success broke the ice, and since then '98 has had her full share of the spoils. The author of the American Commonwealth was obliged to suppress his hrst edition in order to avoid a libel suit, because he had told the whole truth about the election methods of the Tweed Ring. As no one wishes the Record to be sued for libel, nor even to be obliged to suppress its first edition, the full details of the methods employed by the other classes against '98 will not be given. Suffice it to say that these methods were of no avail. Burt Easton was elected secretary to keep him quiet, Horace Longwell was made treasurer, being the only man who could take a course in morals with Fullerton and at the same time be trusted with money: and Martell was recorder because he could intone so beautifully in the initiation services. lfriebel was selected as second censor, since he was the only man who could keep wide enough awake to line the snorers during one of Longwell's discourses on morals. It was a curious fact that Horace couldn't keep the moral out of his debate-not even when he was discussing the advisa- bility of eating cranberries in the Klondike. John Haney held the important office of interpreter of Romance languageswhich involved the onerous duties of translating Italian phrases and pronouncing Spanish names. john was such a success in this and in his defama- tion of Zola's character that Philo intends to dedicate to him a forthcoming volume, entitled Vocal Explosionsf' B. S. Easton, editor. Frank Swartley is the Country Gentleman of Philo. His calm and self-conident manner always wins for his side of the debate the votes of all the Freshmen, although he has never yet been known to speak on his own side of the questiong in fact, in speaking on and off the question. especially off the question, he is excelled by none and equalled only by Langstroth the younger-Langstroth, the plausible and mistaken. Francis McGrath is the man to whom all Philo men point with pride. He is such a surprise, you know. The doctor reminds one of that species of pyrotechnic known as a whistling-bomb. He starts in cool, warms up, and 228 keeps on getting more and more excited, until just about when the explosion is expected he makes his little bow, and the only explosion that comes is the applause. The greatest literary achievement of our Senior year was Brinton's review, written in the rhymed couplet of Pope. Comparing XV. Easton's attitude on the platform to that of a snake, Langstroth, J. H., as fireworks, and Kriebel as A-men, he succeeded in stinging everybody but the critic. Poor Charley Langstroth got himself into a serious scrape by sleeping during the literary exercises and then commending the review as a very good piece of work, the individual characteristics of the men artfully drawn up, not a bit exaggerated. That night Charley climbed through the window into his dormitory room, being afraid to go in by the main entrance, for he had seen standing there some of those individuals whose Hcharacteristics had not been abit exaggerated. Never would he serve as critic again, and Jasper Brinton says that when he ever reads another review he will have to be temporarily irresponsible. Never will Philo forget the eloquent appeal made from the Modei-ator's chair by the younger Langstroth, when he convinced the societv that his brother would make every bit as good a moderator as he had. Great was the puzzlement of the brothers at the end of the second term, when they found that it was against the consti- tution to hold the same office twice. Accepting the inevitable, like good followers of that determinist, Fullerton, they looked over the roll of the class for a man worthy the honor of succeeding them. Burton Scott Easton was selected and elected. Calumniators have it that they selected Burt because he would make the best appearance in the society photograph. The truth of the matter is that they were both aching for an opportunity to revenge numerous points of order and appeals from their decisions. And most ably have they taken their revenge, too. Donlt let it be understood that they had everything their own way, however. Most valiantly has Burt faced the attacks, even going so far as to impeach two allies called in to assist in his overthrow. Xfvltll the assistance of an ever-ready Sophomore, Easton presented such a clever case at the trial that the counsel for the defense had to suborn witnesses at the last moment. One junior testified that there had been strict order at a meeting, when it was later discovered that he had not been present at the meeting in question. His excuse, when charged with per- jury, was that he had heard there was good orderf' and thought, of course, such an unusual fact would have impressed itself on the mind of his informant. Easton ruled the society with no light hand. No business could be transacted contrary to his wishes, and . . . - , N , i ' ' 7 as for appeals from his decisions, why, they were not even tolerated. It was a cleai case of ' La Soczelze, r es! main as was discovered in a rather expensive manner by Horace Longwell when he once moved to adjourn 229 before the business was all transacted. A'That motion is intended as an insult to the society Qin other words, to me,'j,and Longwell was heavilytined,as was also an unsuspecting junior whom Horace had inveiglecl into second- ing the motion. Vtfhen the fined members laid the matter before the society, their eloquent appeals were entirely neu- tralized by the Moderatorls statement, from the chair, that that hne must stand. That fine stood. It was our third Moderator that conceived and carried into effect the brilliant idea of appointing Freshmen on the Appeals Committee, that august body which determines the validity of fines. Seniors won't be bothered with such details as linesg juniors always excuse every fine levied: Sophomores excuse their own and ,double all the restg but Freshmen won't excuse even their own. May the Appeals Committee always consist of Freshmen and the treasury be always as full as when left by '98 May Philo's debates be always as interesting as they were with '98, and may her sons ever remember her motto, Sic Itur ad Astra. -Y w ,, l' ' F ,.

Ninety-seven ruined our prestige and H . ' . .- ' ' H . USTER '- our treasury in her brief reign. Her reputation became so bad that Ives, '97, and political pull were 'synonymous terms. Ninety-eight, by superhuman efforts, has led Zelo out of the valley of the shadow of dcath into a new life. XYe leave Zelo with misgivings, knowing the destructive nature of the nitty-nits, but hope that our efforts have not been in vain to raise her to a higher grade of perfection. A year ago Zelo was relieved of the heavy misrule of '97, She left in Zelo's care a small society called 'the Franklin Debating Union, an empty treasury and an out-of-date constitution. Perhaps you have heard of Franklin before, but its story will bear repetition. It was founded and run by Zelo men as a society to give them practice in inter-society debates. This plan worked admirably in our junior year. A debate was held with Franklin before the Zelo-Philo debate. As only Zelo's second-rate men were on the Franklin team, Zelo won rather easily, the only drawback to the serenity ofthe evening being the breaks of the Zelo team in calling the co-ed on the other side the honorable g'entleman.'l Wfith this practice Zelo went to the chapel on the night of the Zelo-Philo debate, confident of victory, even though Kuemmerle had let Philo choose the judges, who favored their side of the question at issue. Our last hopes were dashed to the ground when, on entering the hall, we saw the Philo team walking the corridors with their arms around the judges. The results of this treatment were certain fraternal smiles given the Philo team during 233 the debate and the decision on the debate. After the usual live minutes' talk on nothing, the judges declared unanimously that while the weight of the argument had been for the affirmative, the decision was for the negativef' And Zelo was the affirmative. At the end of our Junior year, the annual commencement was held and Kuemmerle actually attended a meet- ing, because there was something to eat. The 'Q7 men also turned out in force to eat the good things bought with other men's cash. Ives made a long and delightful President's address, during which the society admired his ef- forts to recommend himself to the people as a substitute for the city gas plant. The Senior year was gladly welcomed by '98 as a great relief. The burdens which have been mentioned weighed us down. Wfe immediately dropped Franklin because we saw it was becoming contaminated with Philo men. Under this new regime Kuemmerle was elected President. He was noted, during his short and uneventful reign, like W'outer Van Twiller, of ancient New York, for his great wisdom, because he smoked up and said noth- in,g. Another event of this term, but more startling, was the return of Kriebel, the gentleman farmer of Lansdale, with a luxuriant growth of black whiskers. He was often absent from meetings because of pressing engage- ments at home with his family. We have spoken before of that antique copy of a manor roll called a constitution, under which we labored in the time of '96 and '97. VVe changed that constitution, in fact, threw it out altogether, making a new and more im- pressive one. The chief beauty of this new constitution is its inauguration ritual. lt requires that the constitution be read forward and backward twice for each officer. On the evenings when we inaugurate, we have special per- mission to let the electric lights burn till 12.30 G. M., and Pomp, through his love for us, does not ring the curfew bell. Under this constitution, Wfillard was elected president in tl1e middle of the second term. His inaugural ad- dress, when we take into consideration the above ritual, was grand. lt made such an impression that- the new members clamored to hear it. Wfillard, like an astute politician, would not repeat it, and so they elected him pres- ident the second term in spite of the protests of the rest of the '98 men in Zelo, so as to hear him say it over. He. then got a swelled head and tried to imitate Reed, buying the latter's rules of order for that purpose. Our evenings were very eventful when we consider the disadvantages that are necessarily present when any men but Seniors are admitted to a society. Take Parry for example, he is a nice fellow and all that, but labors under two disadvantages-first, he is a ,QQ man, and, secondly, he comes from the jersey swamps. Many of the other men are placed in a similar position, and are therefore not the proper things to talk of in a Senior record. VVe have a desk arranged in the room for the above men to lean on when debating and to collect dust to throw in Philo's eyes at the coming debate. The best part of the evening is, however, when we hear the welcome rap on 234 the desk that tells us that the last speaker has finished his long harangue. A motion to adjourn is then in order, and, two by two, dressed in yellow, pink and blue, we file down the stair and homeward, arguing over and over again the disputed points in the debate. Here is where the man who cannot debate on his feet gets in his work. He tells us what he would have done had he debated that question. Finally the great night comes down and solidly quashes them all, and we are glad. Gentle reader, be you fair or not fair, a Freshman-which God forbid-or a Sophomore, bless his swelled head, a motion for us to adjourn is now in order.

The remaining seventy-five cents was voluntarily by sympathizing students. A graphic account of the its gruesome details, is given in these columns. cent victim - contributed crime, with 238 The dormitories were never advertised to realize all the comforts of home. Consequently, our satisfaction was great when we discovered that the delicate touch of woman's hand was to establish these comforts and preserve them from the destructive effects of our rough manner of living. The wise precaution which intro- duced the feminine element into the grinding monotony of our lives, saved us from an otherwise inevitable retro- gression to- a state of barbarism, and perpetuated in our dwellings the attributes of civilization. As we look back upon the weary round of dormitory blue-robed days. we cherish in grateful memory those ministering an- gels. How often did the sound of tripping footsteps, of cheery, musical voices and laughter, of a. gentle discreet knock upon the stout oaken panel of the door, banish from our clouded faculties the influences of deep slumber, and stir us to an acute realization that we had thirty minutes in which to dress, gulp down a nutritious break- fast of an apple, a leathery piece of calf's liver, with a mixture of potatoes and onions, and reach the lecture-ro-om in time to hear our names droned out in roll-call. The aforesaid cheery voices, floating in over the opened tran- som, discussed fresh and ,enlivening bits of gossip, and sometimes acquainted us with the peculiar characteris- tics possessed by their owners. One morning the third floor scrub lady remarked sweetly in the hearing of a jan- itor that if there was anything she loved to eat before breakfast it was warm min-ce pie. The mere thought of this delicacy evidently aroused an uncontrollable desire to eat of it. She prevailed upon the susceptible janitor, who, strange to say, was doing nothing, to go to the nearest restaurant and purchase one of its famous guaranteed home-made pies. She partook of the pie with great enjoyment, and even offered a bite to the obliging janitor. The latter, with praiseworthy self-denial, refused. These janitors, by the way, were an odd classg nobody knew for a long time exactly what their duties were. Gne day, a student, whose zeal for knowledge overcame his indolence, asked a janitor what he got his wages for. The latter, who was moving spasmodically about the campus, never seeming to get anywhere m particular, stopped, glared at his youthful interlocutor a moment, and said, Faith, an' is it me yez are after askin' that ques- tion? An' phwat would become av 'yez, if the loikes av us were not here to look after yez? Thotls phwat oi, gits me wages for, an' a harrud enough toime oi have av it. This answer unexpectedly cleared up the mystery. We were happy to find the janitorls motive was unselfish solicitation for our welfare. A man, unusually well constituted, physically and intellectually, for his chosen profession, was Plank, com- mander of the janitorial force. In him, to even a greater extent than his assistants, was embodied a humanitarian . . . - . , 1 feeling which revealed itself in a fraternal interest in our lives and actions. Plank grasped every chance to s low 239 how justly he interpreted his duty, and how rigidly he must follow it. The following incident illustrates his line of policy. One day, in the early history of dormitory life., a disreputable looking figure, clad in stained blue overalls, entered the premises. lfle was stout of form and red of face. His nose gleamed brilliantly, as the sun darted its merciless rays upon its fthe nose'sj rosy surface. I-le staggered slightly, probably because of the weight of a box or case held tightly upon his right shoulder. Xlfalking slowly. he had almost reached the inviting shadows under the arcade, when the burly form of Plank emerged from a contiguous doorway. The retentive mind of Plank at once informed him that such a suggestive object had never before been seen within the sacred pre- cincts. Peremptorily calling upon the man to halt, he ambled forward to examine the contents ofthe case. To his dismay, he found his worst suspicions confirmed. Xklithin the case were bottles to the number of twenty-four, neatly arranged in separate compartments. On each was pasted a label with the name Tannhaeuser, in let- I- My X F A n 1 W5 NN- f fn Jil, 'whip Wg n ' if , NJ? 'Y 'ELS-.-,a.-' .

A ters of gold, and an inscription proclaiming the nutritious qualities of an amber-colored fluid contained therein. Take that box into the office, and stay where you are with- out moving till l come back, sputtered Plank, in a voice trembling with righteous anger. Writh these words he hurried off to confer with his evil genius, MR. Mumford. Xllhat passed at that interview was never known. Suffice it to say that a question of momentous importance was discussed, the decision of which disfavored any prohibi- tory regulation of the natural rights of the students. On Plank's return the object pro- ceeded unmolested to his destination. Not long after this incident the unhappy janitors declared they could not find cosy corners in the store-room in which to take their after- lunchcon nap. Their customary quarters were occupied by an immense number of cases. Of course the contents had been gratefully claimed by overworked stu- dents. MR. Muinfords favorable ruling was based upon a perspicuous insight into the actual needs of a large body of men with intellectual powers in a state of rapid cultiva- tion. He knew that artificial means were necessary to bring about a refreshing physi- cal reaction after long continued mental toil and strain. The effect was widespread. The sounds of revelry and hilarity betokening excessive joviality and exuberance, often signified to the gladding grind, as they floated into his study some cool spring night, that he must seek relax- ation in similar enjoyment. Xkfith joy he betook himself to over-indulgence in pleasure, and with sorrow and re- proaches he returned to his books. 240 The dormitory procters were a rejected 'body of men who devoted a portion of thir limp energies to guard- ing and maintaining inviolatei' our moral and intellectual welfare. Such unselfish affection brought its own re- ward-and other things. Perhaps it was an inspiration of gratitude that caused one student to cast into the room of a scientihc procter, who had a craze for experiment upon animals weaker than himself, a plump gray kitten. His gift was undoubtedly well chosen, for the cat never reappeared. Rumor has it that a diligent scrub lady found a well-tanned cart skin and a few pitiful bones beneath the embryo scientist's bed. A more venturesome student pursued a different plan. He chose Professor Homer, a red'-haired and whis- kered aspirant for literary renown as the object of, and a dark, stormy, gloomy night as the occasion for, the dar- ing execution of a plot over which he had brooded many weary days. Strangely enough, he desired to escape detection. A long, red, cylindrical object, made of brown wrapping paper, with a string hanging from one end, was his infernal machine. This he resolved to place before the door of Professor's Homer's cosy study, trusting that the latter would suspect its presence, and come out to examine it with his usual minuteness. The door, how- ever, happened to be slightly ajar, and the student, ptering in, saw to his amazement that Professor Homer was perusing most attentively a volume with the odd title, l-low to Parse, or The Art of Concealing 0ne's Ignor- ance. Nothing daunted, even by this violent exposure of duplicity and fraud in the well-loved professor, he placed his token in the doorway. Hardly had he regained the stair-case when a terrific explosion occurred. House E was shaken to its foundations, and the windows of the adjacent house rattled loudly enough to awaken the night watchman. Notwithstanding the fact that the venturesome student aired his opinions with idiotic generosity, the mystery of the explosion was never completely solved. Professor Homer, unfortunately, remained unkilled, though his door was blown open with frightful force, and every vestige of the cylindrical ob- ject was destroyed. We are not inflicting these incidents upon you because we have nothing else to talk about. Par from it. VVe could indulge in poetic Hights of fancy and describe the architectural beauty of the dormitory buildings, or present you with a brilliantly-painted picture of the tastefully-decorated rooms, supplied with the customary bu- reau, bedstead, washstand, etfc. VVe could change the course of the streams and induce in your flexible imagi- nations, floating bubbles of speculation concerning our toiling existence. But, fortunately for you, we do not think such measures necessary. The dormitories are free to all except tramps, persons of noticeable mental pe- culiarities Qexcepting professorsj, escaped convicts who have failed to discard their prison garb, and small boys, 241 unless in waiting attendance upon the wash women. Trusting that you belong to ,none of these categories, We feel sure that personal inspection would satisfy you better than even our artistic efforts. Again-in our lives of unreinitting toil, an ever-present solace buoyed us up. In the words of the poet we were Sustained and soothed by an unfaltering trust. This trust arose because we felt conscious of a great power within us-a power that would cope successfully with supreme difficulties while we acted as the chosen instruinents for the working out of great pre-established ends. ,, iris' -rqf, eff? 1 H VT ' :E Q Y '11-:Ts- 1 1 P --iitzlrl V ' ij' T, aft L - ,5 ' s s if .4 ft D0 OR U-Aw mm K The Triangle 'K,,,,,.,..,.---,,,..-.., .... - , H ,KW ww, - V HY, -M!

Mig. -4 -e .4 . 1 A ' -. - --....?f '-,fp Q Ninety-eight's first attempt at winning the smile of hckle fame across the footlights and incidentally the ap- probation of the mighty Fred Neilson, was in the Preliminary of '94, The performance of The Two Puddi- foots was given by members of the class of '98 and others. Never mind the others, for they sank into oblivion before the irresistibly humorous grimaces of Bartol, who, dressed in what looked like a Coney Island linen duster bathing suit, disported his little bow legs and stubby nose before the admiring audience. The star of the next greatest magnitude, physically speaking was Tub Andrews, who appeared so irresistibly funny and laughed at himself so heartily that he was compelled to retire behind the wings several times in order to adjust his shaking clothing. Tom made a great hit that night, or at least so thought Tom, his family and all his lady friends who were occupying the first four rows of the orchestra chairs of the Quince Street Opera House. QTom was broke for some weeks afterj. Percy Remington made his debut as a soubrette and Pettit also was entrusted with a part. fSic lj But it was not until the Easter performance that Ninety-eight's latent brilliancy broke loose on the admiring public. Then it was that Bartol showed how a Frinch maid from the Imerald Oisle should disport herself Qespe- cially on the horizontal barj. Percy appeared as Cicily and looked sweet enough to eat without sugaring at all. Few will forget how gracefully he slid out into the middle of the stage and clasping his hands pathetically, com- plained to Mohr in a voice like the rattle of a coffee grinder :- But recollect, do, papa, pray. For all this drink we have no pay. 244 Mask and Wig And with the exception of being guyed by McMichael a little later, that was positively all he had to say. The first chorus, too, was made up of Ninety-eight men with the exception of four who were made to stand in the back row to conceal from the general public the fact that Frank Steel was partial to us. But how could he help it? Remington tno longer Cicilyj, Mcllvaine, Parks and Galloney were the attractions, but even the more or less graceful gyrations of the first three, winning though they were, were nowhere in comparison with those of Galloncy, with his legs like fresh fried sausages and the gauzy wavings of that filmy lace handkerchief. He was as conspicuous in that chorus as is a 'lump of hard cheese in a home-made Wfelsh rabbit. In Sophomore year No Gentleman of lfrance was placed upon the boards, minus Bartol. Too hard for him was college and we were compelled to rely on the other talent in the class. And now Remington shone Cin the last few performancesj as a sort of a glorified supe, known by courtesy as the Corporal, and showed his versatil- ity by playing a man's part of almost equal arduousness with that of Cicily. In the cast, indeed, we had no oth- ers, but the chorus was saturated with our genius. The show could not have been given without us. Arthur W'ilson, Mcflvaine, Gerhard, and Shortness McGrath were the chief sights-the latter especially. Gerhard and he were Grenadiers, sizes five feet eleven and four feet nothing respectively. They were inseparable, and when the two paraded down to the front clad in their blue and white uniforms and Gerhard's elbow resting on MeGrath's shoulder, the house came down. Very Little Red Riding Hood came in Junior year, and Remington as Grandmother Hood now displayed his charms in an emerald colored dress and a scarlet colored wig, the latter dropping off on one sad occasion. Our ranks meanwhile had been recruited by Tlartlett and Patterson, '97's pride, and well did the former sustain his glorious reputation. He danced like nothing in all the world so much as a mechanical toy a little out of gear and whirled around in gyrations that reminded one of the collapsing of a top heavy step-ladder. Y And in Senior year Remington reached the climax of his fame as an actor and accomplished the feat for the First and only time on record of holding at one and the same time the position of mfzifre atc balm of the Mask and Vrlig and the presidency of the University Y. M. C. A. And, now, at the end of it all, as we look back we can just begin to appreciate what harmless fun we have enjoyed from our connectionwith the Mask and Wlig, and although, if we had it all to do again there are many things we should be willingiito forego, one of them would not be our glorious experience among the W'i.ggers. ln The House That Tack Built '98 reached as high in numbers as she ever had before-namely, two. Bart- lett and RQ111i1qo'fO11 avain showed themselves to be the histrions of the class. and this time they had the star b fb v , ' parts. 'fMother Goose, if not very effemirate and ladylikeg was at least energetic, and Bartlett s skill at love- 247 making seemed to point towards past experience. As a dancer, too, Bartlett won his laurels, and turned out figures with grace and ease enough to make Charles Snyder Morgan turn green with envy. But there is comfort for Mor- gang Bartlett will never be pretty enough for the fair-haired heroine. How much study Remington made of cats to evolve the life-like feline he did, is impossible to tind out, of course. VVe are inclined to believe that he tried the effects of tin pans on their tails to get a concise idea of how they acted under such circumstancesg but, however that may be, barring a few things like anatomical dissimilarity, etc., as a cat he made a howling success. Thus, indeed, did ,98 partake in its last play in a blaze of glory. All eyes were turned on Remington, all ears on Bartlett. The sharp, scintillatingj sarcastic speeches of Mother Goose and the graceful, humorous high jinks of the cat formed practically the main interest of the play. ,98 was, as usual, in the van.

'A - In the Freshman year we were called out to contest the right of ,Q7 to name of champions. They, in their Freshman year, had turned out an invincible crew and had beaten the Sophomore crew in the contest for the Deanls Trophy, something which had not happened for years. Yet under the efficient management of Captain Mallory we got enough fair material together to fill a shell and have some to spare. Y After many days' hard practice in the tank Qin which work we became very proficient, as is shown by the fact that after rowing some time we were ordered to hit it up, and a stroke as high as 39 per minute was maintained for several minutes, the men still rowing in fair formj, we were ,sent up to the bo-at house and took our Hrst turn in the barge. After several days' work in the barge we got into the shell, the shell used being kindly loaned by the Malta Club. This was something new for most of us, and it took some time before we could stop thinking of the boat upsetting, and give our entire attention to our oars. Wfhile in the shell Mr. Charles lack gave us consider- able help, and also Mr. McCray, who, by the way, very good naturedly ran us into the Malta float and we paid the fiddler. At last, after much hard work and a week of rowing twice a day, the time arrived to test our prowess. It had been noised abroad about the possibilities of iQ8,S'C1'CXNV and also that their rivals of ,Q7 had a very good 251 I reputation. As a natural result the railroads advertised reduced rates, and tremendous crowds arrived in the city the morning o-f the race. The day itself was perfection, being mild and clear. About half-past two 0'clock the two crews took the water and slowly rowed up to the start of the Goose Pen course. Vast multitudes lined the river bank and Girard Avenue Bridge, there being a particularly large one at the finish at Turtle Rock Light-house. At the word given by Otman Xkfagonhurst the start was made, '97 taking the water rapidly and getting a slight lead by a tremendous spurt. Wfhen the race was about half over 'Q7'S boat was about a length and a quarter in the lead, Then by the exceedingly clever work of Coxswain Remington and the spurt ordered by Captain Mallory, we made up the loss and had a good lead in 200 yards. VVhen we had yet a good quarter of a mile to go another spurt was ordered, and as it was well known that Bell always had a tired feeling no one was surprised when the spurt was ordered to see him .suddenly stop rowing and then begin a half stroke. But it was afterward discovered that it was no fault of Bell's, because his seat had jumped clear from the runners and was no longer of any use. And even then, with eight men to our seven, '97 could not gain that lead we had borrowed from them, and the race was a chase to the goal. Xdfe romped in--easy victors. Of course this victory made us feel very proud and we intended to keep the good work up, but the next year the Freshman crew was coached by the Varsity coach, and as '98 was compelled to accept conditions from the coach which were not at all fair, the year ended without a race. Ninety-eight intended to use the old stroke and not bother the new coach, but the coach, knowing or hearing of our record, said: No, if you d0n't use my stroke you can't use the tank. So we gracefully submitted on the c0ach's promise t0 give us sufficient coaching. But fate is fate, or it seemed that fate was '98, for the coach, not wanting to risk having t0 send a beaten Freshman crew to meet Harvard's Freshmen, got the Freshmen to impose terms which no Sophomore could accept, and as a result there was no race that year. In the fall of our junior year there was a general regatta of the class and departmental crews. Ninety-eight was represented by a lot of men who were ready t0 do or die, and yet in the excitement of the race and amidst a host of blisters they forgot to do either and Finished a good second from the other end, being beaten by '97 and 'QQ. It was a good race. but not long enough for us to get in our staying powers, which, from o-ur position, are easily seen to be very great. In the Senior year '98, as usual, was at the start for the last race in our ,college course. But all the time the men were wishing themselves almost any place than under Girard Avenue Bridge, with the temperature about 40 degrees and a strong wind blowing down between the piers. There were five 152 Ai '98's Championship Crew crews in our heat. and after a short but exciting tinie we finished a very close third, ,QQ finishing first and 'oo sec- ond by about 30 feet. ' Thus ended our eventlul career as oarsinen, and although we have had inany trials and tribulations there is no-t one of us but tool: defeat as good naturedly as victory and who would be glad for another chance to grasp the looni of an oar in fair competition. Our record, although nothing to boast of, is a very fair o-ne, Qurs being the last class which did not get reg- ular coaching in our Freshmen year and as we were thrown upon our own resources, it is very creditable to us to think that we were only beaten once by a crew which was placed in the sanie position as we were. This, of course, was perfectly fair, only we had the niisfortune or otherwise to be thus situated, yet we were always ready for a fair race no inatter what the circumstances, and have a right to feel a certain aniount of pride in our work. Thus endeth '98's history on the water. - Xt N , .-f '-'K e'w-LN.-V-,,,, T3-3 I4 T f gp X, 1 wnxiixiiii -4: 2 ..., L rc 1 - Fi VW ' 'f 'U ' ff YV , l l Q l 1 W e Vi l. li J s l sl r .. -T s e c ' - m ' ' qmunv Our first experience on the track was in the fall of ,Q4 when all togged out in our Prep. school running clothes we sauntered with a swaggering air out to the old ath- letic field to compete in the novice games. lt is a curious phenomenon that the swag- gering air that a novice assumes is always in inverse proportion to the palpitations of his heart against the roof of his mouth. It was in these games that Howard llutcher attracted the attention of Billy Bryan, not to speak of his numerous lady friends in the grand stand. Now when an athlete is singled out by the eagle eye of Billy Bryan he is lost, utterly and forever ruined. Butcher left college at the end of the sophomore year. It is not often that ninety-eight is compelled to acknowledge defeat, but such is the case now. Wfe were al- ways considerate and unassuming and never liked to assert our superiority over upper classmen, so to be con- sistent it was necessary to allow ourselves to be beaten by ninety-seven in the sophomore-freshmen games. But in sophomore year we inliicted a terrible defeat on ninety-nine, who as a c'lass were extremely fresh and even pre- sumed to attempt to carry off the victory. Particularly did they pride themselves on their Ioo yard men and count- ed on winning all three places in that event, but how small they felt when XVilhelm pushed ahead for first place can only be imagined by a fresh. This prodigy also won hrst in the high jump, while the redoubtable Brinton, Iabbie in' familiar language, took second place. The hero of the hour, however, was Billy Stewart, who took three lirsts and did particularly well in the pole vault and broad jump. Remington won first in both hurdles, while Bell, the famous Bell from Chester. extinguished himself in the weights. Nor must we forget the line work of Stitzer in the hurdles, who toO'ether with Stewart and Remington 1 6 - tr ' 256 shut out the ninety-nine men from places in either hurdle. Stitzer has been a prominent candidate -for the ,Var- sity track team ever since his freshman year and has set an excellent example to others by his faithful daily prac- tice and we predict that if he continues in the future to work as hard as he has in the past he will make the 'Varsity tif he tries long enoughj. Wfilliams and Smith carried off the honors in the bicycle event and added to our score the last points necessary for deciding the victory. Among those stars who have dotted the zenith of our athletic triumph are Swartley, more commonoly known as Snortley, Sandow's rival, who has been making a stab at the pole vault and we are informed vaulted the bar at six feet two last season. He is doing well and may with care and nursing clear seven feet this year. Another pole vaulter is Longwell, or Sawed-off, who would have undoubtedly broken the world's record last year had he not sprained his ankle. He is getting along beautifully now, however, and is able to sit up and take notice fand other thingsj. VVe sometimes call him Longswillf' 'We must not forget Ebaugh, who stopped running because he used to feel a queer tickling sensation in his diaphragmi just before the competition. Vw Hutchinson also was a pole vaulter. It seems remarkable that the really handsome men went in for this event and others there were too numerous to mention. Wfe always consider it unfortunate that it is not the custom for the upper classes to have games, for we know that we would surely have won again, but like Alexander, we were compelled to be content with sighing for more worlds to conquer. f F Tn f 'fa ,H Lf, ft' X lx T T .f ., ,TX I , T .LA f'N X N ' H :ju ' Tl, H V 'M jf' lj 8 V M A R gl X be Xl II A A lfclzz. , - , - -M ,P Li- I Vtmrli , 1 ,L , .

Ewfaffla A g at w D - e F f About the middle of January, iQ5, we saw a notice posted, signed by no less person than jack Blakely, call- ing for a meeting of freshmen base ball candidates. . Forty future greats responded to the call. Wfe started work with a vim, being told that a game with the Princeton freshmen was almost assured. Wfell, we were green, we swallowed this, but the nearest we got to Princeton was the old athletic field. Dutch Reuning was our captain. Under him we had about a month's practice in the cage and the can- didates were weeded down to about twelve. Dwight Mallory, 3b., Reds Ogelsby, 2b.g NV. R. Ggelsby, p., Tai Conwell, lf., Dougherty, ss., Pop Wfilhelm, ss., Devlin, c., Reuning, c., Fahy, p., and Mary Morrison, Ib. The 'Varsitydemanded our captain and so we had to acquiesce in Dwight Mallory's election of himself to the vacancy. As preparatory to the class games, we trounced the Penn Charter and Haverford Grammar School boys. Our first class game was with JQ7. X1Vell, they were humiliated, their pet pitchers, Long Marks and Bryant, were pounded out of the box. The score was I3-4. After that victory we were no longer green freshmen. ,Q7 wanted revenge. Wfell, they got it. They gave up the second game with that tired feeling after five innings and a score '98, 28, 797, 9. 258 X Ninety-eight was satisfied, it had beaten its rival, and then the games to '95 and '96 were unceremonious- ly thrown. Sophomore year came and we had to construct a new team. Mallory, Reds Ogelsby, Fahy and Devlin cle- parted from our midst and Pop W'ilhelm was called on to fill one of the 'Varsity holes. It was in this year that URunt Huston came along and johnny Dibbs Stoyle was a'llowed to bloom in the garden. Morrison was the captain this year and these fellows with a little pull made the team. Lister c., Barker and YN. P. Ggelsby, p.: R. Morrison, Ib., Runt Huston, 2b.g Quimby, gb., Calely, ss., and Stoyle, c.g VV. Chiply and Ogelsby in the field. ' Of course we beat VQQ. Score, '98, 12, 'QQ, 8. Then through a slight indisposition on the part of one of our outfielders and some of the infield, who 'loved Bin B- and peanuts, we came to grief with '96. The mighty ,97 came next. They wanted revenge, and with the aid of King Dickson in the box C a man too good for the 'Varsity f'faculty, j they just succeeded in beating us in a ten inning game 4-3. VVhen ,Q7 saw our greenhorn pitcher, little joe Barker, they smiled up their sleeves, but the way they smiled afterwards is best told by the score. ' Captain Chip piloted us through junior year, he managed to get enough men to fill the places. W'ith a care- ful weeding out, we got together a team that tied '99 for the inter-class championship and finally Won it by -'99 refusing to play off the tie. VVe did our duty as protectors of the freshmen well by allowing them to beat us. Then came the old story with 'Q7. They were again forced to suffer a defeat. As a paper said in comment- ing on the game '97 also ran. Then ,QQ saw our strength and by a little judicious use of college diplomacy promptly refused to play. This was the team that reached the proud position of inter-class champion: Colely, c., Barker, p., Morrison, Ib., Remington, 2b.g Hanna, 3b.g Ogelsby, ss. and captain, Chipley, cf., R. Smith, rf., Sohm and Rex, lf. Q ' In l v if 3 Z if J , . ,f..gq..W.,, Wim... WV 3? ' ,, 147435-,., V ta Q E9 . ' f' ,. , ' riff? ff, f'Ni'fgf'-.

'lvl 4' i i ' i 'fNca1:. The above picture represents a man kicking a goal in practice. You will observe that there are only three players in sight counting the man and that there are no spectators at all. That's the only kind of goal that '98 ever kicked. You see that, with the exception of Longwell and Jim Langstroth, we are not a class of kickers, morels the pity. After all, however, not even f98 can do everything, try as we will, and so numerous have been our vic- tories in every other branch that really it doesn't much matter whether we played football well or not. Vtfhat was our record? Wfell, in freshman year, under the heroic generalship of Howard Ambruster we put a team in the Held that ought to have wiped up the ground with anything under heaven. Unfortunately, how- ever, Tub Andrews, who was playing centre, passed near a young lady friend of his as he was going on the field, and so did her smile intoxicate him that he played tl1e game as if he were in a dream and 'Q7 walked through him at will. But in spite of this we put up a brave defense and held the sophs down to the narrow margin of 40-0. Sophomore year reached us without our brave captain and we were a little disenheartened in consequence. Also our Dougherty inveigled us into letting him play full-back, and whenever it became necessary to kick he sent the ball very carefully into the middle of Calver's back. Moreover ,QQ was to play a game against the Harvard freshies and in consequence they had been coached by all the 'Varsity men. We did our little best, but, it was up- 260 hill work against very long odds and again we suffered defeat, even though Purve Taylor did carry six ,QQ men on his back for long gains. Junior year at last saw us with a team capable of coping with 597 and victory seemed assured. But again the fates were against us, for when the day of the game came We found the field six feet deep in water. VVe had been trained to play football, but we hadn't been practicing swimming together. None the 'less we should have won if it hadn't been necessary to stop and resuscitate poor 'West, who narrowly escaped being drowned. Nine- ty-seven scored only when De Gelleke dived beneath our line and swam under water for Io9 yards, a marvelous feat for a swimmer, but rather questionable football. In the last year we decided not to put any team in the field at all, but Morrison coaxed us into letting a fexv men go out under his 'leadership and afford ,gg a little exercise. No one seemed really conscious that we had had a team senior year, however, until we learned that the eleven players and fourteen substitutes had notified themselves of a special class meetin,g, attended it, voted themselves S65 worth of sweaters, bulldozed Shorty Mc- Grath into giving them the money and disbanded. Talis est vita, which being translated means that the dues for senior year are 337 all around. Q' ,qs x - - if , Z' , ' I NWA .Inq .,. ,-t l!i Z'. , ' . ' . ' ' lmgqxg- - ..

Greene Ll 1 1 l.1.l.f.1.l.l.l'.l.1.l.f.f.j.,.6 4 IS x x Cld, conservative, reliable, but progressive, the well-known Wine and liquor house of Bernard Corr at Beach and Brown Streets, is unique in many respects From its small beginning in 1853- forty-five years ago-it steadily increased its trade, reputation and capital until it reached a position in the front rank of those mercan- tile houses that have won commercial supremacy for Philadelphia. Nlr. Bernard Corr is a magnetic man of strong personality. He is a striking representative of that class of lrishmen that trans- planted to lllmerican soil, have achieved such eminent success and done so much forthe commercial progress of this country. Mr. Gorr came to Hmerica when twenty-one years of age and immedi- ately naturalized. He is full of Plmericanism and patriotism, and endowed with superior business judgement. Forty-two of his forty-five years in business have been spent at Beach and Brown Streets, first in an unpretentious frame building which in 1862 he displaced with his present quarters a substantial and commodious four story brick structure. Nlr. Corr's specialty is dealing in bonded rye whiskies. When he began business there was no internal revenue taX levied and whiskey was 15 cents a gallon. Now the tax alone is 31.10 a gallon. His achivements have clearly demonstrated accurate knowledge of his business, the wisdom of his management and his value as a citizen. 5 ,wg .Q .5.i.Q.Q.Q.Q 3.5.5 5.1.5 3.1.5 1- I XPC E5 SOI 3 I 5 I W X I X I W X I I X I xl!

Isn't this evidence of his fear that better goods and lower prices are on the counters of his neighbors? When was there an advertisenienit that invited the public to look about, inspect, examine and compare the goods and prices of all dealers in the sanie line, and THEN conie to such and such a shop? THE PENN MUTUAL LIFE La La at HERE IS ONE NOW: asks the insuring public to examine the ORGANIZATION, PLANS, POLICIES, STABIL- ITY, SURPLUS, COST and general nianagenient of every competitor, and THEN look into its record, methods, and policy-contracts. If it has a superior in safety 5 If it has a superior in the application of the mutual principle-each for all and all for each 3 l If anywhere the same grade of insurance is sold through a series of years at less cost 5 If any policy contains more equitable and just provisions for loan value, or cash value, or extension upon lapse, or paidvup insurance g If anywhere there is a greater variety of contracts from which to select 3 If any conipanyhas devised more liberal and just methods 3 presents a sinipler policy grants fuller freedom of residence, travel, or occupation, or niode of death 3 If, in short, the insurance world offers a better contract from a better company 3 N I THEN 5 INSURE ELS E- ' WHERE I I The Penn Mutual Life, 921-923-925 Chestnut Street, lix PHILADELPHIA, PA, Penn Charter Club of the University of Pennsylvania ' 1897-1898 Officers President, Thomas C.
