It being the first publication of its kind to issue from our University, there is naturally enough much curiosity as to how it shall appear and what it shall contain. In its compilation much research and investigation has been found necessary; in many cases justice could not be done in this connection, owing to press of other duties and lack of time and facilities. In making apology for its tardy appearance, we must say to our patrons and subscribers that everything was ready for the press some time since, but a delay was caused by the taking and retaining of a considerable portion of the manuscript by the editors representing the Chi Psi, Phi Kappa Psi and beta Theta Pi fraternities, they being dissatisfied with the decision of the Hoard of Editors in regard to the order in which the fraternities should appear. The resignations of those editors were accepted by the Class and much of the work necessarily had to be done over again by their successors. It may be that we have failed to bestow sufficient words of eulogy and comfort upon some of our aspiring geniuses, and in moments of hilarity perhaps we have written that which may be allowed to wound the sensibilities of others. We can console the former only by reminding them of the possibility of their having a future biographer, some “ admiring friend,” while the offended ones (if, unhappily, there shall be any) we must refer to our fighting editor, No. 603 Marblehead street. The editors desire right here to make thankful acknowledgment to their fellow members of the Junior Class and to the students as a whole for the valuable aid and hearty co-operation which has been extended. We are especially indebted to Messrs. Towne, Grotophorst, Spen- 11 12 THE TROC OS. cer and Canner for designs furnished us, and for excellent steel engravings kindly sent to us by Mr. Charles Payson, of Washington, 1). C., nephew of the late ex-Gov. C. C. Washburn. In presenting sketches of the lives of members of the Faculty, we make no pretensions to biography. Although in case of many of them abundant material is at hand for eulogies on their lives and works, we have deemed it proper to leave that to be done by those who can perform it more fitly. We should give also a sketch of Professor Williams, had he not expressed a desire that nothing of the kind be published. Mr. Clarkson Heritage has our thanks for many valuable facts regarding Professor Lucius Heritage, now on leave of absence in Europe. We trust that this, the result of our efforts, may be at least tolerable to the Senior, and furnish passing amusement to the Sophomore, while we are sure it will seem a marvel in the almanac line to the Freshman and the Prep. It introduces a new era in University life, and we hope that each of the years to come may see the production of a creditable and flourishing Annual. Let the Class of ’86 buckle on its armor, and, with its usual courage, profiting by our blunders, make its production yet more acceptable than ours; while ’87 shall, without doubt, have become so thoroughly imbued with the proper spirit that an Annual will, in due season, issue forth from it as perfect and beautiful as a flower of spring.

In 1883 the Equitable Life Insurance Co. of New York offered him an inducement of such a nature that he felt constrained to accept. He will remain with this company five years, after which time he expects to devote himself exclusively to literature. Gov. CADWALLADER C. WASHBURN. I am asked to write a few words to accompany the portrait of Governor Washburn, which we owe to the kindness of his son-in-law, Hon. Charles Payson. I gladly do this, for I believe that the career of Governor Washburn is worthy of the attention of all Americans, and specially of every American young man. He filled many positions of honor and of trust in all the various circumstances of peace and war. In every one of these his life was marked by perfect honor, high courage, sober wisdom, steady public and private virtue. Such a life has always been, and will always be, the highest testimony to the essential soundness of the political and social system under which it grows ; and his life was an almost ideal realization of the best possibilities of our Republic. It may stand before his fellow citizens, and specially before the young men of Wisconsin, as an example of success which could only have been achieved by the strongest mental faculties directed by the most sturdy moral force. As a public man he served his country for ten years in the congress of the United States; for two years as governor of Wisconsin; and as a general of brigade and division during five years of open war. All his public service was marked by the integrity which distinguished his private life. His extensive business affairs were so conducted as to be of great importance to the community in which he lived. The success which he attained is felt by his neighbors as a positive benefit. It was won by the most conspicuous fair dealing, and it led to no other man’s hurt. The riches which he gained he employed while he was living in public and private .benefactions, and after his death he left noble legacies for public uses. The grief for his loss is confined to no class or condition. His 38 THE TKOCH OS. body was followed to its resting place by the highest officers of the State and by thousands of his fellow citizens from every walk in life. The serious sorrow of a whole community is an impressive proof of the honor in which men .hold a noble and upright fellow man ; it is a tribute which would dignify a king. His whole life in its wide relations to politics, to affairs, to science, and to society, has been a continuous and deserved success. It is to the essential cause of this success that his friends are proud to point, and to which those who are to succeed him, must attend. That cause was found in his sound judgment, his strong reason and his sober moral sense, which combined to produce his public virtues and his private kindness. He was a consistent and steady friend of the University. He has left to it the Observatory which bears his name. In my opinion the best gift that he has bestowed, is the example of his life and character. It is much that he has made it possible for us all, professors and students, to study the noblest of the sciences; but in a true judgment, it is more that he has left another example of a blameless life, faithfully followed in the sight of all men, and amid the severest temptations to compromise with his convictions and his conscience. This is not the place to show how this came about, nor why. But it should be the first thing said of Governor Washburn; and if his life is studied, we shall find that this first thing which must be said is also the last thing — the final summing up and outcome of his life. EDWARD S. HOLDEN. JAMES CRAIG WATSON was connected for a comparatively brief period with the University of Wisconsin, yet he was so closely associated with the establishment of Washburn Observatory as to make everything concerning him a matter of interest to us. His parents removed from Pennsylvania to Canada, and from Canada to Michigan. He was born in Middlesex, Ontario, Jan. 28, 1838. He was educated in the University of Michigan, and was alike superior in languages and in mathematics. He was appointed Professor of Astronomy in the University of Michigan in 1859. In i860 Dr. Brunnow resumed the direction of the Observatory, and Prof. Watson was made Professor of Physics. Three years later Dr. Brunnow retired and Prof. Watson BIOGRAPHICAL. 39 was made Professor of Astronomy and director of the Observatory. This position he retained until his removal to Wisconsin, in 1879. His chief labors in astronomy arc associated with the Observatory of Ann Arbor. lie was especially laborious and successful in the pursuit of asteroids; he added twenty-four to their number. This result alope implies an immense activity. lie took part in 1869 in the observation of the solar eclipse, under the direction of the government, at Mount Pleasant, Iowa, and was sent in 1870 on a similar service to Carlentini, Sicily. He was placed, in 1874, in charge of an expedition to Pekin, China, to observe the transit of Venus. He was one of the Judges of Awards at the Centennial Exhibition, in 1876. He was sent by the general government in 1878 on an expedition to Wyoming, to observe a total solar eclipse. It was at this time that he believed himself to have discovered two in ter-Mercurial planets, whose existence has given rise to much inquiry and discussion. He published a Popular Treatise on Comets, in i860; and a very able work on Theoretical Astronomy, in 1868. He died Nov. 28, 1880, after a very brief illness. His perceptive, mathematical and mechanical powers were of a very unusually high order. He came to Madison at the invitation of the Regents of the University of Wisconsin, to take charge of the completion and equipment of the Washburn Observatory, and to direct its work, as Professor of Astronomy. He entered on the undertaking with great enthusiasm, and proposed, with the aid of ex-Gov. Washburn, to establish an observatory as complete in its appointments as any in the country. This he bid fair to do. The Observatory was much enlarged in its plan, a superior equatorial was purchased, and other instruments were put in process of construction. The Student’s Observatory and Solar Observatory were commenced, at his own expense, though completed after his death by ex-Gov. Washburn. He hoped, by means of the Solar Observatory, to determine the existence of the planet Vulcan, and also to carry on observations on the sun’s light and phenomena. These and many secondary undertakings were brought to an abrupt end by his death. Rarely have so many, so interesting and so promising labors been so suddenly closed. A sense of unspeakable loss and confusion followed this event, and the years that immediately succeeded were chiefly occupied in restoring energy and direction to the movement, which has resulted in a well-furnished Observatory, and one suc-cesflhlly handled.

TIIE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION. 41 If THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION, June 26, 1861, through the efforts of Professor Sterling, the graduates of the University residing in Madison, organized the Alumni Association, “ to encourage friendly and social intercourse among its members, and to promote, by organized effort, the best interests of the University of Wisconsin. ” The first officers were : C. T. Wakeley, President; J. F. Smith, Vice-President; J. M. Flower, Cor. Secretary; W. F. Vilas, Rec. Secretary; J. D. Coryell, Treasurer. Membership is open to all graduates of the colleges of Arts and Letters of the University, and all persons upon whom the Regents have conferred any of the degrees granted in those colleges. The annual meeting of the Association is at commencement time. On the eve of commencement day the literary exercises are held, consisting of an oration and a poem or essay. The regular business meeting takes place immediately after the graduating exercises, and a reception and banquet are given later. With only a short intermission during war time, these meetings have been kept up since June 24, 1862, when the first entertainment was held in the City Hall, at which C. T. Wakeley made the address, and R. W. Hubbell read the poem. The officers for 1883-4 are : Col. W. F. Vilas, President; Frank Hall, Vice-President; C. F. Harding, Secretary and Treasurer. The orator for June 17, 1884, is Hon. Hurr W. Jones, and the essayist, Miss Kate Dewey. 42 THE TROCIIOS. PDST GRADUATES, FLORENCE BASCOM, A. B., B. L., Madison, SARAH CHAMBERS, B.

HISTDRY DF 'B4, • Iy bancs are buried in yon kirk yard Sae far ayont the sea, And it is but my bragging ghost, That’s speaking now to thee.” —Scott (adapted by Editors). So many changes occur during the four years at college that a review of that period must be replete with interesting facts. We have almost finished our course. From the Senior elevation we look down upon the lower class men and exclaim : “ Is it possible that we were once in these stages of development! ” If so, it was too long ago to be remembered. Let us search in the records of the past. We take up our diary and turn back, away back, until we come to a page where the following laconic sentences are written : “ Sept. 10,1880. Class meeting of 84. Great fight over motto. Sophs attempted to break up meeting.” Yes, we Remember now, we too were freshmen once. Further on, we find that as freshmen, ’84 was a quiet set, respected by the upper class men for its determined bearing and sincere purposes. As sophomores, the characteristics of our class were a phlegmatic spirit as regards class feuds, and a magnanimous treatment of the freshmen. It must be admitted that a number of sophomores managed the first class meeting of ’85, and that subsequently a smaller number dared to attempt rushing three times as many freshmen from the South Chapel; but these were only minor affairs which were not upheld by the great majority of the class. During the sophomore year, ’84 introduced the class hat into the University, thus establishing a custom which had for its prime object the distinction of sophomore and freshman, but which has since been appropriated to satisfy the vanity of upper class men. Our third year was spent in hard work, and ’84 pursued the “ even tenor of its way,” regardless of what others said and did to inveigle it SENIOR CLASS. 45 into class strife. But what is this! Here is a page marked in great heavy letters: “ Died—’84—buried.” What of this card with a coffin and burial services depicted thereon ! Why, that’s the wonderful outbreak that occurred on the night of our Junior Ex. It was real cute ? But did it accomplish its purpose? The ridiculous under class manifestations produced in the minds of by-standers, who were expected to be outraged at the attempt, amusement at the absurd exhibition and pity toward the innocents (now called sand-baggers), who, armed to the teeth, had come to bury what they styled a dead class. We next find ’84 in the fall term of the Senior year attending strictly to business—and to Psychology. At present the class is discussing graduation duties, and the members are preparing for the final spurt in the race after the sheepskin. Such, then, has been the history of ’84. In this record, it is claimed by some, there has been a lack of enterprise. This assertion is based on our unconcerned bearing towards persons who, wishing to excite retaliation, offered those imaginary insults which in College often cause bitter class strifes. We were never identified in the execution of any nonsensical schemes which might have brought unfair criticism and humiliating comment. We shall soon leave Alma Mater, and begin our “ struggle for existence.” In future years some will call to mind laurels won in society contest, or distinction conferred for superior class standing; many will enjoy again the college pranks and larks, while some, perhaps, will remember a harmless little flirtation, in which they spent blissful idle hours. In the success of our after years, we shall look back with kindly feelings upon all the band of hopefuls that next commencement will cast out upon the world: “Some natural tears they dropped, but wiped them soon. The world was all before them, where to choose, Their place of rest, and Providence their guide.” May the motto adopted by us remain our maxim through life, and may each one continue to strive for that ideal manhood, which is the goal of all human progress.

I EMMA GODDARD. 0) 50 THE TKOCHOS. HISTORY OF 'B5. “Heureux ceitx qui n'ont pas d histoire ”—so we read, or some of us read, when we were Sophomores. Now, surely ’85 has a history—a stirring history, too; and yet, as a class, we are happy. What private griefs we have, what injuries, conditions—alas! I know not; but this I know, that from the day when the lights went.out on our first classmeeting up to this era of Park Hotel receptions, ’85 has been well satisfied with its career—too well satisfied, indeed, the tongue of envy might add. For, though it may surprise those who understand our extremely unpretentious character, there are some who declare that we lack the quality of meekness. But we have had our faults. As Freshmen we were fresh. Does the grave Junior of to-day doubt that his own illustrious class was slightly infantine when it first trod the campus? Then let him wake the sleeping memories of the past; there will come to him the vision of something small, and round, and black, with a silver cord and a brilliant plume—the first class hat of ’85! And he will fain acknowledge that at least in respect of the sense for beauty, the lofty standard of the brown plug had not then been reached by us. If, however, we were unbelievers in our freshness, let it be to us no cause for self-reproach ; for that must ’84 bear the blame. True, in our early days the Sophs did once or twice attempt to take the conceit out of us; but if they accomplished anything, ’twas only to inspire in us more of that sentiment, so unbecoming in under class-men. Again, the memory of the “tug of war” last spring brings some regret. We pulled the combined forces of the Juniors and Freshmen ; but, when the Seniors, rallying to their aid, wound around a post the rear end of the rope, why did we suffer ourselves to be for a moment delayed ? Other such failings we might recount—but we leave that task to the Sophomores. Vet our early confidence in ourselves was not wholly misplaced. JUNIOR CLASS. 51 Have we not been sufficiently successful ? Much have we undertaken, and we have seldom failed; we have had picnics, burials (not our own), sleigh-rides, base-ball nines, receptions, law suits, and other things not in the catalogue, each good after its kind. We have had our share of flunks, and will have our share of honors. What needs there more ? Just one thing: something to link the coming classes with our own—to remind us, year by year, of ’85; to make us feel that our work was not wholly for ourselves, nor our influence lost in the University when we passed from it. The Trochos was that one thing needful; may it bring no disappointment! Now we are Juniors. The troubles that vexed our hearts as lower classmen have shrunken, in our view, as from mountains to molehills ; our benignant countenances show that we are pursuing, each to his peculiar satisfaction, this pleasantest year of the course. Firmly joined in friendship by the experience of common victories and defeats during the past years, unsaddened yet by thought of coming separation, we pass with lingering steps through the quiet paths of the Junior year. Soon its farther gates shall open; then, leaving these peaceful fields, we must enter on the final scenes of college life. As yet, however, the Junior’s place is ours; as yet no anxiety for the morrow burdens our jovial hearts. Still, free from care, we may enjoy the good the gods provide us; still, in the groves, and on the high places of Madison, we may offer incense, with cheerful hearts, to Alma Mater and to ’Kighty-Five.

Cho.— We can drill like—Julius Ccesar, every Soplionroric boy, And to see our girls “about-face ” would fill your heart with ioy, While to mucilaginous welcomes we the Freshman can decoy; We are proudly marching on.

We are sixty-five—a valiant and mighty, though an innocent sixty-five. But, innocent though we are, we have fathomed the intrigues of the wicked Sophs, and have completely circumvented those “ powers of darkness.” Perhaps it may interest the reader to know what social events have transpired under the auspices of 87, since our arrival among Madison hills. As is the custom with lower classmen, we have had innumerable class-meetings. On one memorable occasion the festive Sophs sought to disturb us, but for some unknown (?) reason they suddenly marched to the rear, after having lost in a large degree that how-catne-you-so appearance which characterizes them. The evening of October 27 beheld us in Armory Hall, enjoying ourselves to the best of our ability; but again the mischievous Sophomore element was abroad and our evening’s enjoyment would have been disagreeably ended had it not been for the foresight and prudence of a few members of ’87. Red pepper had been scattered on the floor. We discovered it in the nick of time, however, and again were the Sophs baffled. During the evening there was noticeable a great superabundance of boys and an alarming deficiency of girls. In this the second term of our Freshman year, we have had but three class-meetings, thus showing in what a remarkable degree our verdure has faded. In fact, we are rapidly losing that charming freshness which at first so clearly distinguished us, that whenever we made our appearance we were immediately, perhaps intuitively, recognized as freshmen. We have been hazed, we have been mualaged, we have been dosed with HJ5, we have had to stand treat and submit to other inflictions, which, Providence permitting, we shall most certainly practice upon the coming Freshmen. Yet, in spite of all these persecutions, we are still undaunted and ever ready to withstand, with even more pluck and courage, the impositions invariably heaped upon the harmless Freshies. Out college life’ has been short, but sweet. Although we have sometimes made dead flunks, and have been subject to various other vicissitudes of life, still we are happy in a mutual good will. All must soon awaken to the fact that in ’87 lies the dawning glory of the University. And, when future years shall behold us as wise statesmen, eloquent orators and brilliant thinkers, we shall then have fulfilled to the letter our motto : “ Spectemur agendo.” H. 60 THE TKOCH OS.

A Til ENA. 73 HISTDRY, In the first year of the history of the University it was felt by professors and students that the education to be obtained in such an institution, no matter how competent the corps of instructors or how broad the curriculum, could not be symmetrical or complete without continued practice in the arts of argumentation, elocution and oratory. Accordingly, in 1850 the Athenean Literary Society was organized, mainly through the exertions of Vice President j. W. .Sterling, and two years later incorporated under the laws of Wisconsin, with the following charter members: Chas. T. Wakeley, Levi Booth, G. W. Stoner, D. K. Teney, Francis A. Ogden and Geo. Woodward, Jr. Until 1853, when the Hesperian Society was organized, Athena was without a competitor in the University. For ten years the meetings were held in a room in the south hall of what is now North Dormitory, but in 1860 the Regents provided furnished rooms in the main building, in which the Society has since continued to meet. At the renovation of University Hall in 1882, these rooms were greatly enlarged and elegantly refurnished, so that now we can boast of a hall second to that of no literary society in the State. Nor are Athena’s votaries here unworthy of her inspiring patronage. There, as in her ancient temple, she has proven herself the fruitful mother of debaters and orators. The Society has always enjoyed a reputation for thoroughness and energy. The character of its work may be judged from the testimony of scores of honored and eminent men, who gratefully ascribe much of their success to the knowledge and discipline gained in its halls. Among the old and honored members may be numbered Prof. C. R. Van Hise, of the present Faculty, and A. C. Parkinson, of the present Board of Regents, while Vice President J. W. Sterling and Prof. O. M. Conover, lately deceased, are among our most honored honorary members. As Athena is the oldest Society in the University, she has generally maintained a modest ascendency, although recognizing in her sister Hesperia a generous and worthy rival. 74 THE TROCHOS. Out of twelve contests in joint debates with the various societies of the University, seven victories grace her records, five of them being successive, with four defeats and one undecided contest. Although the Oratorical Association was short lived, yet Athena’s representatives won all the home, two State and one of the inter-State contests, and twice has the Lewis prize been taken at commencement. Thus has Athena grown in her career of usefulness, neither courting nor declining rivalry, generous in competition, firm in strife. And as the past has been fortunate, so is the future hopeful. With an active membership of sixty-four, encouraged by a recent victory, and assured of the value of her labors, Athena looks out into the future, nor sees any evidence that “ the term of her long dominion is approaching.” V A TI ENA. 75 W.

Its purpose is the discipline of the mental faculties by practice in disputation, English composition and elocution. The charter members were R. W. Harrison, G. W. Perry, A. YV. Lathrop, R. W. Hubbell, W. F. Vilas, T. I). Coryell, S. YV. Botkins. Having adopted Hesperus, the evening star, as our emblem, they set to work to verify our motto, Magna Parens Virutn. Having no hall of our own, we met in South Chapel, which was lighted by three or four tallow candles. As the Hesperian debater caught the spirit of those stirring times, the old hall echoed to words hot and passionate. Questions of national importance were here taken up, discussed and settled in a few hours; yet they were not finally settled, as we have been debating some of them ever since. In i860 our new hall was dedicated. Among the Hespe-rians who exchanged the Society hall for the camp, and the war of words for the clash of arms, Col. W. F. Vilas and J. L. High deserve particular mention, while L. '. Comins died that his country might live. Feeling ran high between the rival Societies, Hesperia and Athena. Every Hesperian knew that Hesperia was the better Society; every Athenean doubted the same. At length, in 1867, representatives of each Society met in joint debate to decide the championship of the University, and I. S. Leavitt, F. S. Steris and B. W. Jones well sustained the boast of the Hesperians. Athena, with redoubled vigor, entered the lists the following year, but was again defeated by our representatives, C. A. Smith, F. E. Parkinson and L. V. Colby. The next year we were defeated. For a time feeling ran so high that no agreement could be made for further debates; but the Societies, recognizing that they were losing ground, met again in 1873. And for the third time Hesperia, through her representatives, Van Wagenen, C. V. Bunn and A. H. Bright, defeated her rival. The following year the joint debate was a drawn battle. Then followed dark days for Hesperia. A strong minority was determined to rule or ruin. They could not do the first; 78 TIIE TROCHOS. they almost accomplished the latter. Many of our strongest men turned traitors, and formed the short lived but brilliant Linonia. Hesperia still had good, faithful workers, and she soon regained her former position, and when we met in joint debate in 1882, H. H. Powers, L. L. Brown and D. F. Simpson won a glorious victory, which was sustained last year by M. M. Parkinson, J. A. Aylward and A. YV. Shelton against the attack of Adelphia. Hesperia has taken part in ten joint debates, has won five victories, and suffered four defeats. She has met her co-worker, Athena, on eight occasions, winning four and losing three times, the debate of 1874 not being decided. Although debating is our principal work, yet we have won honors in other fields. Twice has the Lewis prize been taken by Hesperians—in 1878 by F. K. Conover, and in 1882 by D. F. Simpson. Of the present faculty, Profs. Frankenburger, Vilas, Parkinson, Williams, Drake (tutor), and Regents Vilas and J. E. Spooner were Hesperians. Since its formation Hesperia has had 685 members. Lately we have had our hall enlarged and refitted. We have seventy active members, and are in a prosperous condition. We meet each week and carry out the following programme: Essay, debate, oration, paper, debate. To Hesperians Hesperia is the home of our University life; we watch and guard it as such. We trust that the future will be as bright and useful as the past. To all Hesperians we send greeting. HESPERIA 70 J. A. Aylward. T. W. Bean. L. L. Brown. Herman Fehr. G. V. Baldwin. A. G. Briggs. G.

CAST A LI A. 81 HISTDRY, Previous to the year 1863 the need of a ladies’ literary society had been strongly felt in the University, but no active measures were taken until the latter part of that year, when a few of the most enterprising founded the Society, which has since borne the name of Castalia. The object of the Society, as expressed in the constitution, being “ the improvement and discipline of the mental faculties.” The first meeting was held January 9, 1864. Having a membership of forty-one at the beginning of the year, it numbered seventy-six at its close. For nine years the field of labor was undisputed. The Society held its regular meetings once in two weeks; its open sessions twice a year. Hut the general feeling that more individual good might accrue in a society of fewer members resulted, in 1873, in the rise of a new society—Laurea. The University could well support two ladies’ literary societies, and the spirit of friendly rivalry between them gave to both a stimulus which they have retained. Since 1873 Castalia, though she has had times of depression, has prospered, and may look back with pride upon the record she has made. In her open sessions and anniversaries, not a brilliant display of her most talented, which is no criterion pf a society’s merit, but the best effort of any one to whom a task might be assigned, was all she desired. Thus having in consideration the individual as well as general good of her members, Castalia has been amply repaid by the honor which those members have conferred upon her. The number on the roll of Castalia is at present greater than it has been at any time within the past eight years. Its regular meetings, the programme consisting of debate, oration, essay and declamation, are still held once in two weeks; its open sessions twice a year. The past success of the Society is an incentive to the present members to labor, so as to retain and increase the brightness of its record. (6) THE TKOCHOS. MEMBERS, Clara Baker. SENIORS. Anna Henry.

LA UREA. 85 HISTDRY, The Laurean Literary Society held its first regular meeting on the 31st of October, 1873. It was formed in part by a departure from Castalia, the only literary society among the young ladies of the University, and in part by those not members of any literary society. The motto of the Society is “Semper Parata,” which is not to be translated, “Always Prating.” On the 13th day of May, 1876, Laurea was made a corporate body under the laws of the State. Starting with a charter membership of twenty-four, the Society has increased, with slight fluctuations, to the present size of thirty-four members. The largest number ever enrolled is thirty-six, and the average membership has been thirty. Its regular meetings are held every alternate Friday evening during the college year in Ladies’ Chapel, from half-past seven to half-past ten. Its special meetings during the year are an anniversary held in the spring term, usually in connection with one or more of the other societies; an open session, held usually in the winter term, in the Society hall; a banquet in the fall term, to promote social life and mutual good-fellowship among the members of the Society. One of Laurea’s former members, Sallie Pratt McClane, has gained some distinction as the author of bright and pleasing stories—“ Cape Cod Folks” and “Towhead.” She was with the Society in 1875. 86 THE TROCIZOS.

ADELPHIA 89 HISTORY, Up to the spring of 1881 there existed in the University, among other literary societies, two known as the Linonian and Calliopean. These organizations had been in existence several years, and had experienced degrees of success rather discouraging, as each succeeding year found them in poorer circumstances. It becoming evident that the interest for literary work displayed by the students was not sufficient to support so many societies, it was proposed to unite these two. Finally, after close and exciting debates, it was decided to disband, and the majority of the active members of each united, and on the 29th day of April, 1881, they formed the Adelphian Society, with a long list of active and also many honorary members, as former members of the two societies, excepting the active members at the time of the dissolution, were voted honorary members. The Society immediately after its formation procured a place of meeting in town and commenced work. The city atmosphere, or else the many attractions in the immediate vicinity, seemed unfavorable for literary societies, as Adelphia did not at first prosper as well as the founders had hoped and expected. Some of the older members, perceiving the condition of affairs and the need of a change, resolved to procure quarters in some of the University buildings. Their efforts were successful, as the University authorities willingly granted all aid within their power, and at once provided a hall and furniture sufficient for holding meetings. The present year finds the Society established in convenient and comfortable quarters, with a limited membership of able, energetic men. In.years the Society is young, but the members, confident of a future full of success according to the noblest standards, will strive to secure its advancement. 5X) THE TROCII OS.

HISTDRY, The Bildungsverein was organized on November 8th, 1881. It is intended to supply a want long felt, namely, making practical use of the German acquired in the school-room, by applying it directly to debates, essays, declamations, conversation, etc. All exercises are conducted in German. Students, especially Americans wishing to acquire a conversational knowledge of the German language, should avail themselves of the opportunities offered by our Society. Meetings are held bi-weekly, and membership is extended to all University students. The Society is greatly indebted to Prof. Rosenstengel for many interesting and instructive lectures. HYPERION CLUE. 91 THE HYPERIDN CLUB, 1883. HISTORY, This Club was organized in October, 1883, for the purpose of furnishing opportunities for a higher degree of literary and social attainment. Its membership is limited to twenty, and its meetings occur semi-monthly at the homes of resident members. Up to the present time its efforts have been directed to the discussion of the works of Scott, Longfellow, Lowell and Tennyson, four nights being consumed with each author. One hour is spent on the author of the evening and one is given to the reading of original poems and novel-lettes. The chairman of the programme committee is the only officer.

The present class inherited only tradition of a pre-existing literary association, but an effort was made in the organization of the Ryan Society to give it a permanent basis. As the Society numbers among its most active and valuable members several who now only take the Junior lectures, and who will be likely to return next year, this object will probably be realized. The work of organization, not always an easy task, which has thus far been entailed upon each succeeding class, will now be saved to those who, in their turn, shall follow the present Ryanites. The regular meetings of the Society are held in the law lecture room on Saturday evening of each week. They are usually well attended, and the exercises always of interest. The Society is at j)resent in a highly nourishing condition, and has a membership roll of twenty-five names. 94 THE TROCIIOS. NDRA SAMLAG-, 1SB3. A. J. VINJE, C. F. DAHL, K. E. LARSON, C. F. Dahl. E.

NORA SAM LAG. 95 HISTORY, This Scandinavian Literary Society was organized in October, 1883, and though its existence has been short, the work it has done compares very favorably with that of other Societies in the University. The object in founding this Society was to aftord to those who wished it the opportunity to acquire a more practical knowledge of the Scandinavian languages than can be obtained ordinarily in the classroom. This praiseworthy object the Society endeavors to attain by carrying on all its exercises in one or other of those languages. Its exercises consist of debates, declamations, essays and orations, and the Nora Quartette furnish well-rendered selections from the rich store of weird Northern melodies, that leave such a deep and lasting impression that they cannot but awaken an interest and a love for a people whose peculiar heart-life finds such fitting expression. This University has been fortunate enough to become the only- institution in this country where can be obtained, outside of the institutions upheld by the Scandinavians themselves, the knowledge of the Scandinavian languages and literature which their own intrinsic value, as well as their importance in the development of the world, and especially in that of the Anglo-Saxon, justly merit. Says Thomas Carlyle : “ The vigor of the various branches of Teutonic stock may be measured by the proportion of the Northern blood they received; and the character of England owes more to the descendants of Hralf, the founder of Normandy, than to the followers, Hengise and Horsa.” The distinction that the Scandinavian languages now enjoy they owe pre-eminently to the unselfish and tireless labors of Prof. R. B. Anderson, who has done more for the North in this country than any living man. Nora Samlag, the only Society of its kind in this country, owes its existence to a large extent to his exertions, and it, too, works diligently and earnestly for the advancement of the knowledge of the Northern languages and literature. JL 90 THE TROCHOS. the; $tejrunq literary gl,ub, In view of the fact that to make a complete, well-balanced man or woman, the social faculties must be developed along with the intellectual, and realizing that the mingling of the students in a semi-social and literary relation with those who have left college and are in active life, affords advantages which can be gained in no other way, a number of the students, with ladies and gentlemen in the city, decided to form a society by which this symmetrical development might be attained, and on the 5th of November, 1883, the Sterling Literary Club was organized. As Mr. Charles Sterling was very active in bringing about its organization, and leaving to pursue his theological studies before the organization was completed, the Club was named in his honor. The meetings of the Club, whose membership is limited to thirty, are held weekly; one hour and a half is devoted to literary work, and the rest of the evening to music and conversation. 1883 □ FFICERS MR.

Van Velzer, who occupies the chair of Pure Mathematics. There were twenty charter members, which has been about the average membership ever since. The objects of the Club are to supplement the class work, and to create an interest in mathematical research. The usual order of business is the proposal and solution of problems and the reading and discussion of papers. However, the methods of the Club are varied according to circumstances. The Club subscribes for the leading mathematical periodicals in this country and in Europe. The members also frequently contribute articles to the magazines.

The object of this Club is to give students of the University an opportunity to do special and original work in the natural sciences, and to establish discussion of scientific subjects. Meetings are held regularly on the third Saturday of each month. The exercises at these meetings have consisted of papers relating to Botany, oology and Histology, of abstracts of articles found in the scientific periodicals, and of dis-cussions of these papers and abstracts. At several of the meetings lectures by the different scientific professors of the University were substituted for the regular exercises. Members of the Club are not required to prepare papers at stated times, each member having the privilege of developing at his convenience any subject that he may see fit. When prepared to read a paper before the Club, he informs the committee on programmes of the fact, and receives his appointment for some future meeting. These papers are usually of a technical nature, being the result of special study, and are generally accompanied by illustrations or specimens. The Club contemplates arranging a course of free public lectures, to be given each winter term. ASSOC A ' ' ON or ENGINEERS,. 105 THE ASSOCIATION OF THE ENGINEERS OF ;B5. 1883. □ FFICERS, G. E.

HISTDRY, This Association was organized by the engineering students of the class of 1885, for the purpose of acquiring a better general knowledge, beyond the limits of the text book, of such subjects as pertain to their profession. Meetings are held weekly, at which papers are presented on subjects which are specially investigated. Each paper is followed by a general discussion on the subject treated of. The facilities for the work of the Association are excellent, the numerous engineering journals, pamphlets and periodicals in the engineering reading-room furnishing the best and most recent data in regard to plans, designs and details of construction and operation of all the more important engineering works, structures and machinery.

In accordance with a wish expressed by the class on Oct. 20, 1883, a committee on constitution and by-laws was appointed, and a meeting called for November 2d. At this meeting their constitution and bylaws were adopted, wherein it states that the Society shall be known as the Pharmaceutical Association of the University of Wisconsin, and its object to be “ the extension of scientific knowledge among its members, and the promotion of all interests relative to their studies.” Only students taking the study of Pharmacy are eligible to membership. The Association has been thus far a source of gratification to its members, who are some of the University’s most earnest workers, and it must ultimately fulfill the end for which it was organized. THE HISTORY CLUB. 107 THE HISTORY CHUB 1883. This organization was formed late last fall, for the purpose of orignial historical work. It meets fortnightly at the room of Prof. Allen, and the work done is under his general direction. As yet, its chief investigations have been in the field of early Wisconsin history, but the line of study is not restricted to this. Membership is open to all students wishing to pursue some special line of historical work, with the advantages of the co-operation of a Club. MEMBERS J. A. Aylward. Louis Falge. H. Grotophorst.

The library room is 50 by 75 feet, with gallery well lighted and ventilated. Its capacity is 60,000 volumes, arranged in alcoves. In 1878 the Legislature authorized the purchase of the Lapham Library. It also has a Norse department of about 1,000 volumes, mostly given by Ole Bull. The library contains at present 12,610 books, 1,872 pamphlets and 168 periodicals. The rate of increase is about 500 or 600 volumes per year. This increase is made by purchase and donation. Purchases of books are made by the Library Committee, who select from lists handed in by the different professors. The members of the Library Committee are: President Bascom; Prof. J. C. Freeman, Secretary; Profs. Holden, Irving and Rosenstengel. Library Attendant, Therese Favill. The library is made accessible to all by a complete catalogue of authors, a catalogue of subjects, a card catalogue, and Poole’s Index to Periodical Literature. In order for students to draw books from the library, a deposit of $2.00 must be made with the Secretary of the Board of Regents, which will be refunded when called for, with fines and damages, if any, deducted. The library is open and free to all students from 9:00 a. m. to 1:10 p. m., and from 2:30 to 4:30 p. m., Sunday and Monday mornings excepted. The University Christian Association was organized in 1871, and has ever since maintained active religious work in the University. It has always given much attention to Bible study, having had for ten years a weekly expository lecture from President Bascom, and for six years a Bible class under the leadership of Professors Birgc and Williams, and Miss Chynoweth. Besides this work, there have been supported by the students weekly prayer meetings on Sundays and Thursdays. In addition to this strictly religious effort, much general work has been done by sociables, and especially in later years, in assisting new students on entering the University. The Association has always been non-sectarian in its creed and practice. Loyalty to Christ has been its test for membership, arid all have been welcome to its ranks who have desired to work for His cause in the spirit of faithful service. Steadily pursuing this method of work, it has attracted to its membership a large proportion of the active church members among the students, and has assisted those who are not Christians. The Association looks to the future to bring it greater opportunities for usefulness. The officers of the Association are as follows: C. G. WADE, SARAH CLARK, - F. W. McNAIR, .... A. E. HOYT, .... H.

LA UREAN BANQUET. 143 To the members of the Laurean Society, alias the ladies in Pants-o'-mine, assembled: Eight Stagyrite peripatetics innocently wandered this evening to the spacious realms of Ladies’ Hall, expecting to partake of the crumbs which might drop from the intellectual table of your Society. These expectant ones suffered disappointment and surprise when they found your members indulging in a banquet of ambrosial food and nectar, and playing the parts of Peck’s badand Prex’s small boy, respectively. But, as the watchful angel Michael ever guardeth the celestial abodes, so here we found the protecting spirits present, demanding: “ What do you want here, gentlemen ” While thanking ye ladies for ye “ warm ” reception and the resounding applause from the gallery, the “nonplussed ” eight trust you will construe this call, as it was, an unconscious intrusion. However, it giveth the heart joy to know that male habiliments are worn by you on state occasions. “ Where foot of man hath never trod,” I come, no spy, With purpose to explore or to disturb The secrets of your realm.” (Paradise Lost, Book II.) TIIE AGRICULTURIST'S SOLILOQUY. 145 THE AGRICULTURIST'S SCLILCQUY, O, agriculture ! with thy many charms, Calling to which the son of man is born, My heart toward you with joy and rapture warms, I admire thy pleasures as I cut my corn. Destined my chosen calling soon to be, O, what a solace thou wilt be to me ! No more for me the city’s busy mart, The abode of shrewd and avaricious men; I’ll wander through my fields, all free at heart. And shear my pigs, and milk the gentle hen, Thresh my potatoes, husk my turnip crop And dig the pumpkin growing in the lot. Who’ll study classics, when such pleasure fills The life of him who guides the useful plow ? Who’ll be a pharmacist and roll up pills, Or have “ pettifogger ” written on his brow ? The works of art and science, at the best, Compared with hoeing ausgespicltum cst. Happy the day, when in the fertile fields I pulverize the clods with fairy feel ! Happy the day, when tired of earth’s rich yields, I leave the narvest with its burning heat, And follow wearied, up the golden stair, Park, Pammel, Perkins, Porter and McNair. (10) 146 THE TKCfCHOS.

N CLASS EFFUSION. 149 t CLASS EFF'USICNj JB5 “If you don’t blow your own trumpet, no one will blow it for you. Should you question, patient reader, Whence these youthful girls and striplings, With the odor of the cornfield, Dressed in homespun and in shoddy, With the country milk-maid’s shyness, And their fresh and ruddy faces, Or with bangs of Madam Langtry, With the pull-back and the flounces, Or with spike toes and the seemores And the other dude apparel, I should answer, I should tell you, They have come from many places, From the country and the cities, From the backwoods and the prairie, And from homes of all conditions, Gems of many loving hearthstones. Should you question me still farther, Why this ado, why this effusion, I should simply say they’re students, Class of ’Eighty-five we call them ; I will try and show them to you As my fancy now beholds them When assembled in the chapel On a late day of September. Grave and great was the occasion, For it was their first class-meeting, And they meditate and ponder How they may attain distinction, That their class may be far greater Than all classes gone before it, More renowned than those to follow. In the midst of their discussion Suddenly is heard a banging. Stomping, screeching, maledictions, As though hell had sent her furies To drag below to her dark regions These bewildered, trembling Freshmen. Quickly were the doors thrown open And the Soph rushed in exulting, Glittering eyes and fierce mustaches, i � 150 THE TROCIIOS. Canes and clubs and pondrous brogans; No appealing to such monsters, Who were able without blanching To see a bottle capitated, Or a free lunch devastated, And the Freshmen, panic-stricken, Fled with great precipitation. Soon again they gathered courage, Hut again the Sophs attacked them, Confident and loudly boasting; Oh ! alas, for their presumption ! Little dreamed they of repulsion, But the Freshmen were determined To resist with manly firmness Interruptions and aggressions; Out they rushed into the hallways Eager to retrieve their fortune; Short and brilliant was the action, Hot and furious was the combat; Loud and long the cries of triumph That the now victorious Freshmen Sent afar o’er hill and valley. Sad and woeful in appearance Slunk the Sophomore from the campus; Sighs of anguish swelled his bosom When he took an inventory Of his battered hat and bruises, Of his cane in splinters broken. And the rents in coat and trousers. 'I'llus with strife and fierce contentions Was the feud upheld between them 'Fill the appellation, “ dead class,” Which to 'Eighty-four was given, Came to be their proper title, As with faint reviving vigor On the rostrum with orations They their paltry thoughts did stutter To the weary, suffering listeners On the night of that occasion, Called The junior Exhibition. But, succumbing to the effort, To the spirit-land departed, All the members pale and weakly, Of this class in youth precocious ; Then with flambeaus flaming weirdly, On this May night, e’er remembered, In their tombs we laid them gently, While a dirge rang out so wildly CLASS EFFUSION. 151 That it crept through the beholders, Through the bearers and the mourners With a shudder ne’er forgotten ! So their short career was ended, No renown they left behind them, Soon their name will be forgotten ; While the class who kindly showed them Courtesy and sweet forgiveness In the planting of their bodies Underneath the sod and daisies, Are in the zenith of their glory, Scholars all, and full of promise, As we show you by the Trochos, First one published in the college. And we hope in years to follow, That our course of life and labor Will not prove a contradiction To the evidence here given Of our energetic spirit, Of our hearts so full ot bravery, Of our good and kind intentions. 0 oER 0F EXEf?c Ses --AT TIIK- BURIAL® JUNIOR CLASS, UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN, 18, 1883, FOAMP US.-i “ am a tainted wether of theJlock: Meetestfor dtath ORDER OF EXERCISES.

Minutes of previous meeting read and approved. After Prof. Sterling had been reproved for covertly kicking Prof. Rosenstengel, and Prof. Freeman had been requested to stop eating peanuts, the President announced that the next order of business was Miscellaneous Business. Under this head Prof. Conover moved that, in view of the unstable condition of the supporting posts in the basement of Science Hall, four Junior engineers be placed around each post to hold it up. The following discussion took place: Prof. Sterling (standing as straight as if he had swallowed a crowbar) : “ I am decidedly in favor of the motion.” Prof. Heritage: “ Hardly, h-m—there are one or two points in what you read. In line five, ispossint a subjunctive of purpose or a subjunctive of purposing ? ”. (Marks the answer 69 %). (The President detected Prof. Vanhise making sheep’s eyes at Miss Chynoweth, and ordered him to change his seat). Mr. Drake (his voice in his boots): u I should think it would be a very good thing.” Prof. Davies: “ I have a galvanometah wound fine with coppah wiah, which we might use to ascertain the approximate heighth in amperes. Prof. Birge (playing a solitary game of “ Simon says thumbs up ”): “ Clearly. And so. taking all things into consideration, we may fairly say that, in the majority of instances, this proposition is true.” Prof. Frankenburger (spacing it out on the table): “ Yes, I see your point; I can see how that might be, but, on the whole, I rather think we had better be cautious.” (Here a commotion delayed proceedings. Prof. Davies had worn his black silk plug to the meeting, and had placed it on the floor by his chair. Profs. Allen, Kerr and Holden were amusing themselves by seeing how near they could spit to the hat without hitting it. The man of galvanometers now discovered this fact, and manifested his disapproval by doubling Prof. Holden up with a well-directed blow on the bread-basket. The Professor of Astronomy retaliated by hitting the r THE TROCHOS. 150 Professor of Physics on the mouth. Just at this juncture Prof. Owen unwound his legs, calmly stepped over intervening obstacles, and after having been compelled to swallow several of his teeth, succeeded in quelling the disturbance. Frof. Welsh then placed the hat out in the hall.) President Bascom : “ I am afraid that we haven’t a clear apprehen- sion of the trooth.” Prof. Kerr: “ Exactly so.. I was reading this morning in a very nice work (which I have in two volumes down at my house) that the very best way to do things is to do them in the way which shall be most advantageous.” (Cries of “That’s so.”) Prof. Daniells: “ I called your attention to this matter some time ago, on a Blue Monday.” Prof. Owen (coiling up his legs on the floor) : “ Oh, I’m so tired! Let’s adjourn.” Prof. Van Velzer (ready for action): “ What’s that formula ? ” Mr. Bull: “ When tata equals pi----” Prof. Rosenstengel (interrupting): “ Oh, you haf made von great mistake. That is what von must call a mixlum composi um. When you haf to translate dock you don’t translate it. You must kill two Hies at one lick.” Prof. Williams (adjusting his Grecian bend): “Are you waiting for an inspiration ? ” (By the way, this is a joke.) Prof. Allen: “ Ahem ! Well, my impression was (although I haven’t looked the matter up), that the boundary was 450 30' 35”, instead of 450 30' 30”. However, I may be mistaken.” Prof. Parkinson (with a scowl, pounding on the table, and emphasizing fiercely): “ Is this necessary, or is it a mere dodge of the pro- tectionists ? How is it ? ” Prof. Freeman (with head thrown back, gazing serenely out of the window): “ Well, it makes no difference to me what it is.” Mrs. Carson (with mild remonstrance): “W-e-11, if—you—can’t —talk—in—a—gentlemanly—way,—we—had—better—adjourn.” Miss Chynoweth (nodding, and rolling her pencil between her hands): “ Don’t try to be funny, for you haven’t got any poetry in you. Above all things, I dislike to see people acting babyish.” Prof. Vanhise (looking scared, and talking as if he had ten thousand things to do the next minute) : k Why, no; of course not. Look in your Fresenius, and it will tell you differently.” Prof. Freeman: “ I would suggest that Prof. Parker stop wag- FACULTY MEETING. 157 ging his ears. It isn’t hot weather now, so that he doesn’t need to fan himself; and then, too, it seriously shocks my instinct for beauty, and Prof. Welch’s, too.” Prof. Parker (suddenly rapping on the table): “ Why won't you watch me? Now, when you are ready to give attention, we will go on. Be sure and watch me for the time.” Prof. Irving (not caring his broken suspender button for anything or anybody on the face of this earth, or any other earth): “ Let there be no whispering or communication of any kind whatsoever. If any one wants an examination, let him stay after the class, and I will give him one. You bet your life I will, and don’t you forget it.” (Prof. Irving sat down on a pin, kindly put in position by Prof. Parkinson. Prof. Irving rose very suddenly, and said, “ Ugh! Old joke,” but went no farther than to glare defiance at everyone, from the President, who had his feet upon the table, around the circle to Mr Drake, who was endeavoring to stare Mrs. Carson out of countenance.) Prof. Welsh (Janatorius Kxtraordinarius of University Hall): “Yez must hurry up and lave the room; it’s gittin late.” Mr. King (mounting a chair, so as to be seen): “My way is best ? ” (Loud applause.) Prof. Trelease: “Ah, yes; I think so, too—ah.” Prof. Holden (bowing, and then sitting on the table): “ Ladies and Gentlemen, I-------” (Here the President directed the Professor’s attention to a placard tacked on his hack, which read: “ For sale cheap. Inquire within.” The astronomer sat down disgusted, and Prof. Henry laughed so immoderately that he lost his seat on the edge of the wood-box and fell down inside, whence he was fished out by the combined efforts of Profs. Welsh and Sterling). Misses Dodge and Street (who had been talking in the corner with Mr. Tatlock): “ Te-he-he ! Oh, how nice ! ” Mr. Tatlock (complacently): “Ah! ” Prof. Armsby (gazing reproachfully at the top of the bookcase): “ I cannot see any use in this motion; besides, I must go and milk my cows pretty soon, and prepare some more rations for them.” President Bascom: “ Professor Birge, will you keep quiet down there ? ” Prof. Birge (lying on the floor, whistling) : 44 No.” President Bascom : “ Well, all right then ! ” Prof. Henry (slouch hat, hands in pockets, trowsers in boot-legs): “ I have little time to consider this question. But I am making some 158 THE TROCIIOS. fine fertilizers now, warranted not to break, tear, rip, or run down at the heel. My mules and agricultural students are doing well.” (Cheers). Prof. Power (perplexed): “ What is this motion you’re talking bout?” Prof. Heritage: “ Oh, shut up and sit down ! Let’s hurry up and get through with this thing. I want to get outside, where I can smoke.” Prof. Trelease: “Well, I’d give a dollar for a good chew of to- bacco ! Got some with you, Franky ? ” Prof. Frankenburger (after feeling in his pockets) : “ No, it’s in my other coat.” Lieut. Chase : “The bearing of some of the gentlemen was very unsoldierlylike. For instance, Prof. Daniells, while speaking, did not hold his left-hand little finger on the seam of his pantaloons, and Prof. Irving had his thumbs in the arm-holes of his vest, while Prof. Rosen-stengel stood with one foot up on a chair, and Prof. Owen did’nt stand at all. These points should be attended to.” The question was then put to vote and lost. President Bascom: “ ’Twan’t much use to make that motion, after all. Some one please wake up Prof. Owen, for we stand adjourned.” The meeting broke up in great confusion. Some led by President Bas-com and Miss Chynoweth, sang: “ Landlord, fill the flowing bowl! ” Profs. Sterling, Kerr and Williams rushed out before the others for a quiet game of “ California Jack.” Prof. Davies secured his hat and fled toward Science Hall, while the manager of the oyster department and the overseer of acids and alkalies, arm in arm, were averring, in stentorian tones, that “ We’re all of us jolly good fellows ! We’re all of us jolly good fellcnus We’re all of us jolly good f-e L-i. o w.s ! Which nobody can deny ! ” -----------, Secretary. ----r 160 THE TROCHOS. bruge; at the; gymnasium. The Junior chiefs were far away; On college green the vanquished lay, Full eager for the close of day Tq gild the purple west. With haughty mien and soldier’s clothes, A Soph among them proudly rose, And, frowning at his absent foes, His comrades thus addressed : “Sophs wha hae wi Freshies bled, Sophs wham Bruce has aften led, Behold your dreams of glory fled— False visions of felicity. “Now’s the day, and now’s the hour, To unite our feeble power, To make the craven Juniors cower— Juniors suping servilely. “ Wha will be a traitor knave ?

The 0001 868 of Study are such as to provide a sound education in the elements of science, and at the same time to give great freedom in the selection of studies according to the choice of the individual student. This College embraces the Departments of General Science, Agriculture, Civil and Mechanical Engineering, Mining and Metallurgy, and Military Science. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE. It is the design of the University to give in this Department a thorough and extensive course of scientific instruction, in which the leading studies shall be those which relate to agriculture. The University farm is used to aid this department in conducting experiments in agriculture and horticulture. Students can enter this, and all other departments of the University, at any time upon examination ; can pursue such studies as they choose, and receive a certificate of attendance. DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING. The object of this department is to fit students for the professions of Civil and Mechanical Engineer. Drawing is made prominent. Particular stress is laid upon the proper use of instruments and tools, and as much time as possible is devoted to field and shop practice. Those wishing to take the requisite time will have opportunities afforded them in the machine shop to acquire the use of tools and gain a mastery of general principles. DEPARTMENT OF MINING AND METALLURGY. The object of this department is to furnish instruction in those branches of science a thorough knowledge of which is essential to the intelligent mining engineer or metallurgist. It is designed to give the student the option of making either Mining Engineering or Metallurgy the most important part of his course. 26 2. College of fetters. DEPARTMENT OF ANCIENT CLASSICS. This course embraces the Ancient Classics, Mathematics, Natural Science, English Literature and Philosophy, and is intended to be fully equivalent to the regular course in the best classical colleges in tlie country. DEPARTMENT OF MODERN CLASSICS. In this course German and French take the place of Greek. The studies are arranged to give students a good knowledge of those languages and their literature, to fit them to engage in the duties of instruction, or to prosecute to advantage professional studies. Students who do not wish to graduate may enter at any time and take any study for which they arc prepared. DEPARTMENT OF PHARMACY. A Department of Pharmacy has been established by the Regents of the University, under the direction of Prof. Frederick B. Power. It is the aim of the University to build up a course thorough and complete within itself, and which will enable the University to confer a degree of widely recognized value on the student who finishes the course. The course in Pharmacy embraces the work of two years in the University, and the work of two years in Practical Pharmacy. LAW SCHOOL.
