THROI ' C.H WHOSE GENEROSITY OUR UNI YER SIT Y HAS BEEN SO LIIiEKALLV ASSISTED IN IT. ' J ONWARD PROOKESS. THE EDITORS RESPECTFll.LV DEDICATE TlnlE i [D)Q!El=  J o }e ' Reaber. W ' lC no fears, dear reackr, for though we shall torture you by manifold devices, yet our leniency will not :illo v us to spring on you the ancient metaphor of catching the badger on the beautiful shores of Lake Mendota. We fully realize the poetical vigor of this pleasant conceit, and congratulate the man or board in whose fertile imagination this highly original figure (irst made its appearance; but the genial manner in which it has been treated and pushed to the verge of literary possibility by the last board, makes it as much out of the question for us succeeding generations to take it up again, as would be the idea of writing a second Kalstaff. , nd, to speak frankly about the matter, dear reader, catching a badger saems but one- twentieth the labor of grinding out a Badger; indeed the latter comes to seem almost a Sisyphean task after you have spent weeks in hopeless endeavor to be facetious. In the beginning when such select specimens, true blessings to this weary life, as Monroe, or . nthony. Joseph, or Clyde, are under consideration, the Badgerite swims in apt ideas; but when the stale, weary, flat, ommon run of humanity demands to be poetized and dis- tinguished by satire or encomium, then, indeed, the tribulation commences. The pin- nacle of mental anguish, however, is reached when you wring your brains for an ode to alma mater, a sublime . H C-poem. or a heroic epic on some li,i rittilli- that would have pa.ssed unnoticed, had not you in your tine frenzy clung to it for poetical inspiration, as Komeo to the wintlow-sill when his rope-ladder gave way. Let us pa.ss over these dark hours, for pessimism is lurking everywhere, and turn our thought to the moment when with moist eye of repentance and gratitude, Sidney will step up to us and say; ' Vou liave truly discovered my faults; I am henceforth a better man Heaven bless you! It may. however, notbeoutof the place to remark right here, for the benefit of those hardened specimens who will refuse to see our good will towards them, that in its last session the board appropriated $. )() to enable their chief athlete to take further lessons in fencing and hewing .as well as to import a sturdy shillalah. This gentleman will cheerfully hear any complaints, . s you mayhavenoticed.it has become customary for annuals, like patent medicines, to proclaim their vast superiority over everything that has gone before; as we. for one reason, utterly detest all chestnuts, we shall not follow the custom. We cannot, however, re- frain from acknowledging the vast preeminenC of the former book in many respects, as well as our own sins of omission The centre of gravity of the last volume, the point around which all the poetic treasures clustered was the image (as Dan would have said) of the classic features of the board. Do you not think the world owes them eternal gratitude for this aesthetic education, this accumulation of the sublime and the beautiful, this modernized Olympus? Can we not by looking upon these countenances explain the grandeur of their poetry? Will not future generations point to R. ' s vaulted forehead and say Hence sprang the profound Ode to the Water Pail. or to I. ' s thoughtful visage and remark Here origin- ated the wonderful prose romance of Finn. or to K. ' s sardonic sneer and exclaim Be- hold the power behind the throne, the inspiration? Should then we common mortals imitate these gods? Would it not be like the glowworm trying to make people believe it was still day. after the glorious sun had set? 8 THE HADCIER. But. to take you into our confidence entirely, we must tell you that Mr. Y. objected because, as he said, good looking people always take bad pictures, while Mr. W. said he would never consent to have his grandchildren know that he had not raised a moustache at the age of twenty-one You see, gentle reader, there were weighty considerations for withholding from you this boon; trusting that you have not fully digested the doss ad- ministered by our illustrious predecessors, we hope for indulgence. Among our new departures is the Contribution Box; the original, being of a yellowish hue. was placed in Main Building hall-way as a receptacle for such varied effusions of men- tal energy as might happen to break forth. Was ever success more marked! At first its purpose was mistaken by the innocent seniors headed by Deacon B.. who dropped into it their scanty shekels as a thank-offering to their ■ ' lalla. When they learned their mistake it was too late, for Mr. H. had already appropriated the funds, which our business partners invested in one of those extended bums they so charmingly style hunting ads. But no sooner had the college population caught on to the true intent of our mysterious box, than they began to pour in upon us a mighty flood of poems, jokes, chestnuts, and such other diverse and variegated chattels as will be detailed at length under the proper heading. We also heard complaints that some of our would-be contributors were unable to inject their more voluminous works on Hygiene and Comparative Psych into our box; so we delegated Mr. M. to widen the aperture and thus give them every possible encouragement. The result of these effusions when read before the Board, was, as you may well imagine, simply disastrous. The ladies swooned away repeatedly, Mr. F. had to be led out into the open air five separate and distinct times, and Mr. L. said he thanked Heaven that he had been a member of Hesperia for two years, that, had strengthened his nerves. Upon one occasion when a particularly heartrending, inveterate pun was read, the old upholstered armchair, our silent but dignified comparison, collapsed with a groan; its unhappy ruins are now religiously guarded by W. M. S., and shown to visitors as an inducement to contemplation on the serious and dangerous character of puns. Having thus permitted you some glimpse into our workshop, we hand to you, dear reader, the result of our labors, the book whose sole purpose is to please you, and whose numerous shortcomings we commend to your kind indulgence.

Clara E. S. Bai.I.ARU was born of English parents in Belfast, Ireland, Aug. 27, 1858. The family moved to Maidstone, Kent, where they lived till 1870, when they came to this country. Miss Ballard was educated in the public schools of Boston, studied three years at the New England Conservatory of Music, attended the acad- emy at Peacham, Vermont, and afterwards studied Erench and Latin at the Berlitz School of Languages, Boston; entered the Allen Gym- nasium in 1886, and was graduated from the. Normal course in 1889. In the fall of the same year she came to Madison and established a gymnasium in connection with the University at Ladies ' Hall, and at the beginning of the present year was elected Instructor of Gym- nastics in the Lfniversitv of Wisconsin. Mr. Craig was born in 1868 in the countr - illage of Russell, Russell Co., Ontario, being the youngest son of Wm. Craig, Ex. M. P. The surroundings of his boyhdod developed in him a strong love for the study of natural science. After having spent a year at Kemptville High School, he attended the Ontario Agricultural Col- lege, in 1887 became an associate of that institution, and a year later graduated from the University of Toronto, obtaining the ile- gree of Bachelor of Science in Agriculture (B. S. A.). Before he left college he was appointed resident editor of .the Canadian Live Stock Journal, and shortly afterwards assumed the position of man- aging editor. After two years of editorial work he resigned to ac- cept the professorship he now holds. 20 THE BADGER. janitors. PATRICK K. WALSH, University Hall. JAMES M. ASHBY, Ladies ' Hall. JAMES R.

Miss Ballard was educated in the public schools of Boston, studied three years at the New England Conservatory of Music, attended the acad- emy at Peacham, Vermont, and afterwards studied French and Latin at the Berlitz School of Languages, Boston; entered the Allen Gym- nasium in 1886, and was graduated from the Normal course in 1889. In the fall of the same year she came to Madison and established a gymnasium in connection with the University at Ladies ' Hall, and at the beginning of the present year was elected Instructor of Gym- nastics in the L niversitv of Wisconsin. Mr. Craig was born in 1868 in the countr - village of Russell, Russell Co., Ontario, being the youngest son of W ' m. Craig, E.x. M. P. The surroundings of his boyhood developed in him a strong love for the study of natural science. After having spent a year at Kemptville High School, he attended the Ontario Agricultural Col- lege, in 1887 became an associate of that institution, and a year later graduated from the L niversity of Toronto, obtaining the de- gree of Bachelor of Science in Agriculture (B. S. A.). Before he left college he was appointed resident editor of .the Canadian Live Stock Journal, and shortly afterwards assumed the position of man- aging editor. After two years of editorial work he resigned to ac- cept the professorship he now holds. 22 THE BADGER. Charles Homer Haskins is a native of Meadville, Pennsylvania, and a graduate of Johns Hopkins Universit}- in the class of 1887. F rom 1887 to lS9t) he was a graduate student at that institution, holding from 1888 to l81tU the position of Instructor in History, and receiving in 1890 the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Besides his doctor ' s dissertation, which is to be published in the current volume of the papers of the American Historical Association, Dr. Haskins has contributed to the Revue Historique and the publications of the Bureau of Education. A. A. Knowlton was born in Boston, Mass., Jan. 4, J 859. His father lost his life in the Civil War; and his mother dying soon after her husband ' s death, he was thrown upon the world at a very early age. Until his seventeenth year he worked on a farm, and up to that time was self-taught. After teaching school and practicing land surveying, he entered Phillips Exeter Academ -, taking the full four years ' course and graduating in 1882. In the autumn of that year he entered Bowdoin College, from which he graduated in 1880. Having taught at Providence, R. I., for two years, he went abroad for further study, and after an extended tour on the Continent, ma- triculated at the University of Berlin, where he remained one year, pursuing studies in Mediaeval History, Political Science, and Litera- ture, with special work in German Educational Methods. In the summer of ' 89 he matriculated at Leipzig, carrying on the same line of work as at Berlin. In August of 1890 he took his degree of Ph. D., after which he returned to America. iLcC LA - A-.V- S ' - ' VY , Edw. RD Kremers was born in Milwaukee, F eb. 23, 18(i4:.

Durin ; his college course he took two prizes in Mathematics, one in {ierman, and one in an oratorical contest. In 1885 he graduated optiiiiiis; he was also valedictorian of his class. Having taught for one year in the Hartford High School, he entered Johns Hopkin ' s Uni- versit)-, where he studied I ' lissics for three years. He held a University Scholarship and the I-Y-llowship in Physics. In Is ' .t d he took his degree. tL O Charles D. Marx was born in Toledo, Ohio, Oct. in, 1857. He received his primary education at Amsterdam, Holland, where his father was U. S. consul from ' (i:? - ' ()( , at Ettlingen, Germany, and in the Public Schools at Detroit, Mich., to which cit ' the family had returnetl in ISl ' iC. jn the fall of ' 71 he went abroad and entered the Realg)-mnasium at Karlsruhe, Baden, where he studied till 187t). Returning to America, he took the course in Civil Engineering at Cornell Uni ersity, from which he graduated in 1878. In the same year he went abroad again and studied for three years at the Polytechnicum at Karlsruhe, where he also acted as instructor in Civil Engineering under Prof. Baumeister. In the summer of ' 81 he began professional work in America, as leveler and transitman on the proposed extension of the Boston and Hoosac Tunne l R. R., and later as U. S. assistant engineer in charge of works in the Mississippi River Improvement at Plum Point. In 1SS4 he accepted the position of assistant professor of Civil Engineering at Cornell University, where he remained until called to the University of Wisconsin. Mr. Pai.MKR was born in iMil. llis earl ' life was spent on the farm anil in his father ' s dairy factories. Stutlied at Leno.x College 24 THE BADGER. from ' 77 to ' 79. Later he entered the academy at Grinnell, Iowa, completing the classical course in 1884. The same year he entered the freshman class in Iowa College and at once received recognition as a speaker. For three years he stood without a peer among his college fellows, as an orator, winning a prize in oratory during each year of his college course. In February, 1887, he had the honor to be the orator from Iowa College, to the Iowa State Ora- torical Contest, and easily won second honors. By virtue of which rank he was the same year made chairman of the Iowa delegation to the Inter State Oratorical Contest. During the summer of ' 87 Mr. Palmer took work in elocution and gymnastics at the Chicago Athenaeum and in June ' 88 was graduated from Iowa College as valedictorian of his class. Since that time his attention has been largely directed to the study of the branch in which he is now in- structor. Mr. Palmer does not possess that florid style of oratory which is so objectionable to many, but by an easy and natural style in voice, manner, and feeling, he tries to present his art with a view to clear comprehension. William George Sired, born at Watford, Hertfordshire, Eng- land, in 1861. Attended school at Harrow. Studied music six years under John Farmer, Director of the Harrow Music School. After finishing course of training as student and teacher, went to Nottingham as teacher of pianoforte and singing in the Nottino-ham branch of the Harrow Music School.

IDIIN W . STKARNS. J! 1 Professor lofjn J. S+earns. Professok Stearns was born at Sturbridge, Mass., August 10th. 1S80, and gained his elementary education in the schools of his early home. In 1S54 his father, who was a Baptist clergyman, re- moved to Wisconsin, and the son entered the high school just opened at Racine under charge of Col. John G. McMynn. Mere he was prepared for admission to Harvard College, being one of the first young men to enter that institution from this state. Among his classmates at Harvard were John Torrey Morse, editor of the American Statesmen Series, and Col. Robert G. Shaw, who fell in the attack on Fort Wagner in iNfi-f. Soon after graduation from Harvard in istid he entered upon his life work, taking a position as teacher in the Winona State Nor- mal School at Winona, Minn. He held this place for two years, then for a year was editor of the Winona Daih Republican, resum- ing educational work in lS(io as principal of the Canton High School, at Canton, 111. In l!S()5 he was appointed tutor in Latin at the University of Chicago and two years later professor. In this posi- tion he was associated for a time with Prof. John C. Freeman, who then filled the chair of Greek in the same university. After nine -ears ' continuous service in this institution he resigned his chair in 1S7-I. to enter upon educational work of a much broader scope and in olving much larger responsibilities. This was the direction of a national normal school to be founded on American models, in the Argentine Republic. He reached his new field of labor in October, J 874, and, after a few months spent in acquiring a fluent mastery of the Spanish language, took charge of the normal school at Parana. Shortly afterwards he organized a new normal school at Tucuman, which at once grew to be very large and successful. Dr. Stearns remained in charge of this work for three years, being compelled at length to lea e his post in consequence of the prevalent malaria which was undermining his constitution. A few months of Furopean travel, however, restored him to his usual health and enabletl him to accept a call to the presidency of the Whitewater Normal School, in this state, in the fall of 187S. Here he remained till 18S4. when he was called to this uni ersity, where he now fills the chair of philosophy and pedagog)-. an 32 THE HADGEK. It is to the practical work of instruction that Dr. Stearns has from first to last steadily devoted his main energies, and it is in this field that he has achieved his greatest success. His personality, both in and out of the class-rooTn, is powerful and far reaching. No student who comes under his teaching can fail to be stimulated and strengthened by his thorough practical knowledge of his subject and his wise methods of imparting instruction. While a busy literary man, it is not as a maker of books that he is best known, but as a contributor to pedagogical journals and a lecturer on educational subjects. F or a number of years past he has been editor of the Wisconsin Journal of Education, while as Teachers ' Institute Lecturer he annually delivers numerous ad- dresses in every part of the State. The intimate personal acquaint- ance with teachers and with educational needs and conditions, which he has thus accjuired, make his opinions on such matters sound and valuable, and his advice is eagerly sought by all our prominent educators throughout the State. In 186(5 he received the degree of A. M. from Harvard College, and that of LL. D. in 1S77 from the University of Chicago. la l : ENI01 I ' l.ASS. 33 enior C ' ss. Motto: — .n ior Omniit I ' hidl.

SSURKULV Carlyle told only half the truth when he said, Happy are those peo- ple who ha ' e no annals. He should have added that such happiness is the happiness of the people to whom ignorance is bliss. ' 91 has there- fore, no apology to make for her lung and glorious history. To the lower classmen we will now divulge a fact which they naturall - never expected. Strange as it ma}- seem to them, wf zvrrc once Frcsliiiun ourselves. Hut wc were not typical Freshmen, submissive, meek, and useless. We defended ourselves and the honor of our class with success un- paralleled in the history of education. During her second year ' ftl ' s career was unmarked by the usual brutality of Sophomores. Our dealings with erring Freshmen were characterized by an enlightened balance of mercy with justice, and our mild, but firm administration at Dormitory Court, was followed by such tranquillity and good order, that the faculty found it possible to dispense forever with the services of that extraordinary tribunal. 34 TUK liADCER. It was during her Sophomore year that ' 91 began her marvelous career on the base ball field, and, as all the world knows, she has held the pennant for three consecutive years. Of our career as upper classmen, sulSce it to say that the history of the University has been the history of ' 91. (For a more detailed account see next summer ' s University Catalogue.) And thus in every department of learning, — literary, scientific, athletic and co-educational, ' 91 has been the only class in sight, and if her myriad emulators, baffled and disheartened, ask for the secret of her prowess, we point them to her motto, Labor Omnia Vincit. With ' 91 it has been more than a sentiment, it has been a rule of daily life. ( Cons in Dutch and Psych to the contrary notwithstanding.)

L ' U.EA had her chronicles, and from time immemorial in whatever clime, ever - illus- trious nation, tribe, or clan has had its historian. Rome had her Gibbon, Eng- land her Macaulay, America her Bancroft. In coming years when it shall be written ' if the inventor who perfected the air ship, of the statesman who found the golden mean between high tariff and free trade, I if the engineer who discovered the wa) ' to utilize the low lands of the Mississippi valley, when it shall be written, I say, of all these, that they belonged to the class of ' 02, shall the world turn o er in ain the pages of history for some record of this class . ' Since 92 is illustrious not only to-day, but gives promise of great things that are to be, iv. is only fitting that her histor - be inscribed on Clio ' s scroll. Who shall enumerate the valorous deeds done, the wisdom and the witty things said since that well remembered day in September, when we gathered around — not the festi e board — but what we were informed was the bulletin board in the Main Building, trying to accustom our eyes to the intellectual glare which surrounded us. ' Difficult indeed, was the ta.sk of unravelling the tangled web of that ' m 38 THE BADGER time table and of learning that the worth} ' knight of the broom and the furnace was not to be addressed as Professor. We exhibited marked patience under all those torments which Sophomore ingenuity is ever ready to devise for the Freshman ' s discomfiture, for sufferance is the badge of all our tribe. ' We bore with ma ' rvellous fortitude our encounters with H.,S and ' ' .•!. scarcely knowing which of the two we loved the less. But alas ! the spirit of peace which possessed us as Freshmen did not abide with us as Sophomores, but in its place came the demon of unrest, and we were seized with a ague longing to wield the bar- ber ' s shears. We wavered — we yielded — and the deeds of that one night brought us even to the courts of justice. Rut these are memories which must not be dwelt upon. Ah, brave and valiant ' !J2, just once } ' ou stumbled and fell b_ - the way, but now you are mounting steadil} ' upward, so high indeed, that but a few short months ago one of your members ascended even unto Athena ' s shrine in quest of Professor Kerr. Many a time has the white and gold decked the ictors in ball game and cane rush, and many. a time has the class room resounded with the eloquence of some gifted Junior. What though he were informed, after he had brought all the light of his intellect to bear on an obscure theory in Psychology, that he had just missed the point. We are all but human and liable to miss psychological points. Thus has ' 02 neared the close of her third year, and now the time draws on apace when she shall bur}- the hatchet with ' 9] and, having ushered out that class, shall stand ery near the summit of that pinnacle which is covered with silk hats, photographs and diplomas. The book of Fate is indeed sealed, and the beaten path of college life has not been trodden to the end. We can predict the future only by probabilities, but who can doubt that, when our role on this smaller stage has been played, the names of those in the ranks of ' 92 shall find a place in the annals of the nation.

I- 11L ' ii may be said that cla.s.s hi.s- tnrics arc too generally recitals of -erj- coninioii|)lace, and sometimes ignoble recollections. It were well enough, perhaps, in our Alma Mater ' s younger days, for the historian to in(.lulge in these remem- brances of youthful follies. But the mission of each class expands in im- portance as our noble institution grows. , ii(l wlun a class swells from the weak bond of her foibles, and assumes the responsibility of accomplishing, and does accomplish a work which the friends and lo crs of higher learning and good order have for years repeatedl - but unsuccessfull)- attempted, the might)- task of destroying that vicious remnant of barbarism w ' hich seemed rooted in our system — the practice of hazing, when, I say, a body of students does such a work as this — a work that ' ' . ' M has done — all men should make haste to give her the honor which is her due. We need not here recite the events of the campaign against hazing, now so successfully closed. That ' ' .l- ' came upon the college scene predisposed to a man against this custom, will be more refadlily believed than proved. We were determined to crush the spirit that gave it life. We smiled with a consciousness of superioritj- at the boundless vanit)- of its supporters, and the narrowness of their -iews. 42 THE BADGER.

L LLV six months ago, on a pleasant balm)- September day, we, the class of ' ! -!■, a band of unsophisticated mortals, little hopefuls, as it were, trudged up State Street, with staring eyes and gaping mouths to behold the mysteries of the long hcard-of and ever-sought-for University of Wisconsin. We the Freshman class — the great unwashed — the barbarians of the Univer- sity, have forced ourselves upon you and bending low, ••in a bondsman ' s key w ith bated breath and whispering humbleness; with all due respect and reverence to all, e.xcept the sophomores, beseech your welcome! But crude and untamed as we may be, we are deserving of your consideration, since even the Adonis-like Sophomore, whose example is the crucial test for all, has gi en us the ■•Samaritan ' s pass. Even from the first da - that we made our appearance, we have been treated with unlooked-for respect. 46 THE ]iAI)t;EK. No bottle of H.,S broke up our first class meeting, or no band of ghoulish,, blood-thirsty Sophomores lingered around the campus at midnight, mustering up the courage to drag some innocent Fresh- man from his warm and cheerful room, out into the dense woods which surround Lake Mendota, and then, after wishing him sweet repose and bidding him good night, leave him in a bed of thistles to the mercy of Morpheus. What a class then is that of ' ' .14! Were I prophet rather than historian, I would prophesy that in years to come, when the University of Wisconsin shall number her students in the thousands, if you will steal out where the silvery moon of memory hangs o ' er ' varsity hill, j ' ou will realize that the name of Ninety-Four still lives in its spotless example, surrounded by a magnificent halo of brilliancy and splendor. When other classes shall cease to be remembered in the paths of fame, invincible ' 94 shall shine on in the celestial firmament in one eternal bustification. I-RKSIIMAN CLASS. 47 iTreshman ( lass.

Ill ' , constant and rapid advancement in the various depart- inciUs of professional and scientific kno vled je, and especiall}- in the branches of ajjplied science most directly connected witii the practice of pharniac}-, has led to the demand for hij dier educational qualifications on the part of those engaged in the responsible duties of the preparation and dispensing of medicine. The importance of such ciualifications in their relation to the progress of medical sci- ence, and the conservation of the public health, has now become generally recognized, and in this State has found expression in the following legislative enactments: Chapter CLXVTI, Laws of 1882, ameniled in ISST) and 1SS7, entitled, An act to regulate the prac- tice of pharmacy, the licensing of persons to carr_ - on such practice, and the sale of poison, in the State of Wisconsin. In order adequately to meet these legal requirements, the Depart- ment of Pharmacy was established by the Regents of the Universit)- in 1888, and the succeeding years have been attended by a broad and satisfactory recognition of its service to the State. With its present equipment it affords unexcelled opportunities for acquiring a thorough practical education, and training in all the branches of applied science, which are most intimatel} ' connected with the suc- cessful pursuit of professional pharmacy. The growth of the department has been phenomenal. When Prof. Power arrived in Madison, in the fall of ' 83, no preparations whatever had been made, and not a ])erson invested with the neces- sary authority could be found who could be consulted with in regartl to the necessary steps to be taken. After several weeks a few very small rooms, located in the south end of the building then known as South Hall, now Agricultural Hall, were assigned to the new department. The botanical lecture room of Prof. Trelease, without gas or water, had to be used by the lecturer on pharmaceutical chemistrj-. Within a year, however, 52 THE BADGER. these quarters became altogether too small, and the fourth floor of the same building was given over to the department. These apartments, though ample at first, were soon outgrown. In the fall of ' 89 the Department of Pharmacy moved to its present quarters, the third and fourth floors of North Hall. As the accom- panying cuts illustrate, both lecture room and laboratories are handsomely and adequately fitted and equipped. Taking into consideration the fact that so-called pharmaceutical education is made very easy by two rival colleges of pharmacy in Chicago, the rapid and steady growth of the Department of Phar- macy at our University has been really marvelous, and as a natural consequence has been favorably noticed, at home and abroad. For its success, the department is largely indebted to the faithful work of its untiring and enthusiastic director. Prof. Dr. F. B. Power. Frederick Belding Power was born on the 4th of March, 1853, in Hudson, N. Y. His elementary education was received at Hud- son Academy, and he then entered upon the pharmaceutical profes- sion, serving his time as apprentice and assistant in pharmacies in Hudson, Chicago and Philadelphia. In 1872 he entered the Phik- delphia College of Pharmacy, graduating with high honors in ' 74. In 1876, after having visited Berlin and Dresden, he matriculated at the University of Strassburg. Here he attended the lectures and worked in the laboratories of Fluckiger, Fittig, Rose, Kundt, DeBary, Sohms, Laubach, and others. Prof. Power was not only a faithful student, but also entered fully into the fascinating student life, as it can be found at German Uni- versities only. The days and years spent in the laboratories of Fluckiger, Fittig and Kundt, and the excursions with DeBary, were in themselves an education. Prof. Power also cherishes many a pleasant and profitable souv- enir of the Vosges Mts., of the Black Forest, and of the Tyrolese Alps. In 1880 Prof. Power took the Doctor ' s degree, having writ- ten a thesis On the Constituents of the Rhizome of Asarum Cana- dense L, ' and having passed the required examination before the philosophical faculty of the University of Strassburg. Prof. Power then returned to America, taking his way through Paris and London. He not only brought home his learning, and the results of his several investigations, but also that love for truth, that ardor for scientific investigation, and that high regard for his profession which has become characteristic of him. To those who know Prof. Power it is not at all surprising that our Department of Pharmacy has so marvelously prospered. The work done here compares favorably with that done at the best schools of pharmacy in this country. Scientific investigations have been car- M J 2 c w cc h O W J J ; o h D Id « ; X yjjj DEPARTMENT OK ' llAKMACV. 53 ried on even under tlie greatest disadvantatjes. Contributions liave been made to the better pharmaceutical journals, at home and abroad; to iIk- publications of the State Pharmaceutical Association, of the American Pharmaceutical Association, and of the American Asso- ciation for the Ad ancement of Science. It is tlue to this fact that our department is known as well and even better in Ann Arbor. Philadelphia and New York, and even in Germany, than it is in our University, of which it is a part. This fact is clearly shown bj ' the donations made to the department by outsiders. The firm of Schimmel Co., at Leipzig, have ])resented an elegant and costly collection of essential oils, and other volatile products obtained from plants. This is probablj- the finest and most complete collection of its kind in the United States. The private collection of Prof. Power also includes a rare and very complete assortment of cinchona barks handsomely mounted. These represent jnany varieties of both South American and East Indian origin, which are no longer obtainable in commerce. They were presented to Prof. Power, together with main- other aluable speci- mens, b - Dr. Hoffman, of New York. SENIOR CLASS. H. R. Baumgarth. Jr., J. Bellack. - C. F. Bieberman. - W P Bliss. O. T.

History. writiiiij a liistory of the jLinior Cla.ss of the College of Law, one feels tempted to imitate Diederick Knicker- bocker and commence at the creation of the world, for there is little to be said of our short existence as a class. J On the 11th of September, l.S! 0, forty-three young 4 men gathered in the apartment de ' oted to the use of the Junior Class. All sections of our land and all nationalities were represented. There were Southerners and Northerners, Scandi- navians and ' ankees, former justices of peace, reformed theological students, retired deacons, tired newspaper men, escaped clergymen, discharged lunatics, ex-agriculturists, recuperating school teachers, and disappointed lovers. All these heterogeneous elements pro- ceeded to amalgamate into one symmetrical uholc. llu- professors came in and surveyed the class. A look of pride — sadly misplaced confidence — shone in their faces. A fine class, a fine class, said they. 56 THE BADGER. Studies commenced. Evei ' one noticed a difference between the mode of instruction here and that in vogue in colleges and high schools. The professors seemed to be trying, not so much to see what the student knows, but to impart information. They seemed enthusiastic, to teach as if it were a pleasure, not drudgery. They did not seem to regard themselves as goads to punch the student along, but they walked with him in the pursuit of knowledge. They seemed to invite the learner, not order him. Probably the fact that the law student is old enough to be self-responsible, does away with the necessity of the constant stimulus of forcing the student. A class moot court was organized early in the term. Officers were elected and J. 1 . Horan presided over the class for the first term. In conjunction with the Senior Class, a party was given in the assembly chamber and brave women and fair looking men tripped it light!}- upon their fantastic French heels and number ten James Means ' three dollar waukenphasts, while the majority of our class sat in the gallery eating popcorn garnished with twelve cent butter, and gazing at the merry swirl below. Without event and happil}-, passed the daily life of the class. To those young men exposed for the first time to the temptations that abound in a metropolis like Madison, the example of our noble Deacon was a constant inspiration. Let us honor him while we have time and petition the legislature to erect in the Capitol Park a $45,(HMi statue of this gentleman. His sayings, wise and pithy, though sometimes marked by sadness, have done much to lighten our weary labors and speed time faster. Our clog dancers and singers have also beguiled the class and furnished pleasant amusement. Our history has but begun and like the innumerable classes of the l ast we hurrj ' down the abyss of time toward the final bar of judge- ment where the Pandects of Justinian, the code of Draco, and the re ised Wisconsin statutes shall be of no avail.

His parents were Welsh and came to this countr)- when he was two years of age. They resided in the city of New York until he was sixteen years old; in the public schools of that city he received his pre- paratory education, and entered the Free Academy — now known as the College of the City of New York — when he was twelve years of age. He here pursued the course embracing Latin and the Modern Languages, now termed the Modern Classical Course, but was interrupted in his studies by the removal of his family to Wisconsin. Obliged to assist his parents on the farm, he did the best he could to continue his studies during such time as he could snatch from labor in the field. Inclined to study mathematics, he- studied unre- mittingly, and with such success as diligence and industry can achieve under unfavorable circumstances, continuing also his Latin and French. During the long intervals of farm work he engaged in teaching. n When twenty years of age he entered the junior class, in the Ancient Classical Course of Lawrence University, at Appleton, Wisconsin. Being desirous of obtaining a thorough knowledge of Greek, he remained two years a member of the Junior class in this institution, and took extra work in Mathematics. In 1862, he graduated, receiving the degree of Bachelor of Arts. During his last year in college the country was agitated by the war for the preservation of the Union; and, on the completion of his collegiate course, he lost no time in enlisting as a soldier. He joined Company D of the 21st Regiment, Wisconsin Infantry, a company composed of young men from Appleton and the vicinity. During the first year of his service he was on detail duty at Louis- ville, Ky.. and when he rejoined his regiment, then commanded by Col. Harrison C. Hobart, he was appointed Sergeant Major. He was afterwards promoted to be First Lieutenant of Company K, and was with his regiment in the battles of Chickamauga, Mission Ridge, Dallas, Resaca, Peach Tree Creek, Jonesboro, Atlanta, and in the famous March to the Sea under General Sherman, ending with the battle of Bentonville, N. C. 64 THE BADGER. After the battle of Mission Ridge his regiment, with the 79th Pennsylvania Infantry, was stationed on the top of Lookout Moun- tain for some time — where the severe winter of 18H3— 4 was passed — a winter memorable both in the North and the South for the coldest weather ever known in the United States. In May 1 04, the regi- ment joined the main body of the army to participate in the move- ment on Atlanta. On the surrender of the Confederate armies under Lee and Johnston, the regiment made the march from Raleigh, N. C, to Washington at the rate of thirty-two miles a day. Here it partici- pated in the grand review, and was mustered out at Milwaukee in 1805. A -ear previous to lea ing the military ser ' ice. Prof. Da -ies had been elected to an assistant professorship, which he was unable to accept, as his resignation would not be accepted. On being mus- tered out, he was elected Professor of Physics and Chemistry in Lawrence Universit}-, where he had graduated three }-ears before. He entered at once upon his duties, but finding the work excessive, he concluded to enter the Chicago Medical College to complete his medical course of stud} ' . In the Spring of ISGO, he was married to Miss Anna Elizabeth Bent, of Chicago, and resumed the duties of his chair in Lawrence University. While here he was elected lecturer on chemistry in the Chicago Medical College. He entered upon his duties there, but was one year after offered the Chair of Chemistr - and Natural His- tory in the U niversity of Wisconsin, which was then vacant by the resignation of Dr. E. S. Carr, who had filled the position for a num- ber of years. Ha ' ing accepted this professorship, he gave such time as he could command to the study of physical and mathemati- cal subjects, and in 1875 was elected Professor of Ph -sics and Astronomy. At this time, certain work he had done having at- tracted the attention of Prof. Benjamin Pierce, then superintendent of the U. S. Coast Survey; he was made an Acting Assistant of the Coast and Geodetic Survey, to be employed during his summer va- cations upon the trigonometrical surve - of Wisconsin. TTiis work- he commenced in 1873-4 and has continued it every summer since. This out door life has afforded him a healthful change from sedentary occupation, and its rigid scientific character has been agreeable to his tastes. In a few years the original plan of the triangulation will be completed according to the appro ' ed methods of modern Geodesy. When the famous work of Clerk Maxwell on Electrict}- and Mag- netism was published, Dr. Davies became an earnest student of the subject. This work and the reprint of Sir William Thomson ' s papers I ' Kol KSSOK jltllN v.. HAVIliS.

I. Kini(, Superintendent of the Uni ersity Machine Shop, by Prof. Anthony, of Cornell L ' ni ersity. When Science Hall was burned. Prof. Davies had accumulated for the Uni -ersit_ - an electrical outfit of the best kind then known. The constants of man - f)f the instruments had been carefull - deter- minetl — a w ork which had consumeti much labor anil lime — and the loss was severely felt. To replace the instruments and again do the experimental work has required time, but the liberal policy of the State towards the industrial arts will enable the special work in Electricit} ' and Magnetism to be hereafter developed rapidl)-. Prof. Davies as a scientist has received marked recognition. In liS()T, he was elected a member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. P or nine years he was Secretary of the Wisconsin Academy of Science, Arts and Letters, and since his residence in this State he has been a member of the Wisconsin State Medical Society. Last year he was president of the Alumni Association of the Chicago Medical College, and deli ered the annual address. Iii l889, he was elected a Fellow of the American Academ - of Medicine, and about the same time a member of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers. As an instructor Prof. Davies is clear, methodical, and logical. He seeks to inform his students by scientific accuracy rather than to please them b - figures of rhetoric. Lentil recently much of his time was required to give elementar - instruction, work from which he is now relieved, and those who now pursue their studies under his in- struction and guidance are made to feel the great importance of the subjects brought before them. Having studied for years, he is naturall}- more interested in the higher and mathematical department of Physics than in purely elementary instruction, and those students who have had the preliminarj- training necessary to pursue the sub- ject, as presented in his lecture room and laboratory, regard him as possessed of exceptional ability. As a genial, helpful, considerate friend. Prof. Davies commands the respect and esteem of all who study under his direction. He trusts to the honor of students and his confidence is seldom betraved. (58 THE BADGER. [ istory of tl;e giterary Societies. k% HE debating society, that most valuable adjunct of the college curriculum, made its appearance early in the history of the University and has steadily kept pace with the progress and development of the institution itself. Since the six men that organized Athena, about 1850, discussed the fiery questions of those days in old North Dormitory, nine other literary societies have sprung into existence to supply the ever increasing demand for drill in debate and oratory. Of these ten societies eight are now in existence with a membership of upwards of three hundred and seventy-five. Athena, after nearly half a century of uninterrupted prosperity, still enjoys all the vigor of youth and boasts that she has won more joint debates than any of her rivals. Hesperia, organized in 1853, is still in the ring, and every Friday night her eloquent sons may be heard discussing the issues of the day in their room on the 4th floor of Main Hall. PhilOMATHI.A, born in 1880, has made marvelous strides and bids fair soon to rival her older sisters in all but prestige. AdeLPHIA came into being in 1880. She seemed to have in- herited a weak constitution from both her parents — the Calliopean and Linonian societies, now deceased. She did commendable work for nine years and then quietly petered out, but after lying in a comotose state through the year 1880, she again revived, and seems now to have entered earnestly upon the struggle for life and pros- perity. Long may she live and prosper. The growing demand among our brothers of the law school for improvement in forensic ability resulted in the organization of the E. G. Ryan Society in 1883, which ever since has enjoyed a most prosperous existence. The FoRUM came into being in the spring of 1889 because of the inability of the E. G. Ryan to accommodate UlSl ' OKV OF rilK 1.1 IKkAKV SUtlKTIKS. 69 all the l.iw stinlciUs (Icsirdus nl the traiiiiiiL; that miU- a (.iebatinij so- ciety can j;i e. rh(iUL;h ' i iiiii; in _ -ears, the l ' oruni has a firm toot- ing and looks forward to a prosperous future. Besides the above named societies there are two others, hiL, ' hl_ - prosperous, supported b - our talkative co-eds, — Cast. i,i. , or- ganized in 1S( +, and L.M ' KIC.V, founded in 1N72, I ' hey hold their meetings at Ladies ' Hall, and rank well with the other literar ' so- cieties and bear witness, as Laurea ' s historian of ' !)U says, ■ ' That books not boys do fill their heads. The training afforded by these societies cannot be acquired in the class room nor b - pursuing an)- study in our college curriculum. It is the unanimous opinion of the men aiul women who ha ' e gone out from this institution and who did good, faithful work in our debating societies, that the ability acquired there is of more value to them in the practical affairs of life than any single study in their college course, and to many a boy it has been the making of him. A man going out in the world is judged not so much by what he really knows as by his ability to express logicall - and clearly what he knows. To give its members this abilit)- is the aim of the literary- society. Success, here as elsewhere, can be gained only by hard work, but in no other place will diligence and perseverance tell as in society work, and in no department of the university is a student so strictly judged according to his true merits as in the debating so- ciety. The freshman, coming in most cases direct from the farm or the village school, with little or no experience in speaking, appears for the first time before a society jury with fear and trembling. He has worked hard for two weeks or more, has prepared and committed to memory an eloquent five or ten minute speech; but. alas! as he stands there before the jury with the eyes of fifty or sixty fellow stu- dents upon him, he finds to his utter consternation that his memory has failed him. All ideas he has ever had on that question or any other have fled. His tongue cleaves to the roof of his mouth; he would give a kingdom if he had one for just a drop of water; his knees shake, almost refuse to support hin ; he fumbles nervousK- in his pocket for his manuscript and begins mechanically to read a quo- tation from Daniel Webster, Thomas Jefferson, or some other great American, until the president ' s gavel announces that his time is up. How well we remember the first time the sonorous voice of the president called out: The debate will now be continued on the neg- ative by Mr. . and we boldly marched out to face the jury. What a relief was the sound of that gavel as it announced that our first speech was made. If one were to ask a freshman for a definition of eternity, he would probably answer: The five min- utes duration of my first debate before the literary society. 70 THE BADGER. The second and third and fourth time he comes on for debate he finds himself better able to face the jury and society. As his sopho- more, junior, and senior years flit by, his thoughts come to him more and more readily and in order, and after four years of diligent ap- plication he can step before a jury and unravel his argument with as much composure as a Methodist parson. In addition to the natural desire to appear well, our literary so- cieties offer other incentives to active effort. The Freshman Blow- out, coming generally at the beginning of the spring term, is the freshman ' s first oppportunity to distinguish (or extinguish) himself. In each society he has this evening to himself and every freshman is expected to appear on the programme with an oration, debate, or toast, as the case may be. It is commonly understood that the best men in this contest will be chosen to represent the class in its sophomore semi-public. From the semi-public men, the junior ora- tor and joint debaters are usualh ' selected. The past year an ad- ditional stimulus has been given to oratorical work in the newly or- ganized Oratorical Association. Our literary societies have given to the state and to the nation some of its most successful business men and some of its most emi- nent lawyers, doctors, and clergymen. Hesperia and Athena boast of having listened to the first speeches of United States ' cabinet officers, senators, congressmen, and innum- erable assembl -men and state senators. With such incentives there can be no measure of the good a live debating society can do for a young man or woman. MsmosMMemsa whn ' ; ' ' ' ■ ATIir.NA. 71 3(tl?enQ. OFFICERS. President.

J J SCHLICHER HISTORY. HE pa.st year has been an even-t- ful one in the history of the Bild- ungsverein. The society has gone through a crisis, and only no -, wliL-n it has fully emerged and again stands on secure ground, can we adequately measure the dan- ger it was in. By a loss of a number of its best members the society a year ago was left in a very weak condition, — so weak, in fact, that, by the end of the winter term, iNOil, it was to all appearances, dead. Thus it remained till the end of the year; the balmy breezes of May and the thunder storms of July swept heedlessh- over its resting place. But with September, with new energy and new enthusiasm, came the resurrection. And the Bildungsverein was not the worse for its long and dreamless sleeji. It arose to life a new creature. In place of the cold and arbitrar ' bonds of the constitution, was set indi ' id- ual desire for mutual benefit. Though Robert ' s Rules of Order are less heard of now, its members return from their meetings with the satisfaction of something accomplished. The societ) ' has also made a change of quarters. Marching out of North Hall to the tune of the coal-scuttle and the ash-pan — which, by the way, was fur- nished free of charge through the liberality of the High Priest, — it planted its banner in the more congenial atmosphere of Ladies ' Hall. This change, as well as the greater share in the work of reconstruc- tion, the society owes to the untiring efforts of its lady members. Finally, the members of the Bildungsverein also acknowledge their debt of gratitude to the generous kindness of Prof. Rosenstengel and the other instructors of the German department, whose lectures iiii,i)UNc;svEKi:i. . 87 given from time to time. lia c maclc the meetings botl) more profit- able and more attract i e.

HK maintenance (if a Scandina -ian department in the Uni ' ersit , and a societ}- for supplementing class work, and for creating an interest in Norse literature seems proper, not only because the Norse language in our state is next in importance after the English and the German, but also because its literature, both in amount and quality, is worth)- of such attention. The e.xistence of a national mjtholog}- ma}- have been an import- ant factor in the product ion of Norse literature, or this mythology may be an early indication of the literary tendencies of the people, as in Greece and Rome. The eddas and the sagas, appearing before 1100 A. D., were the beginning of Norse literature; they were fol- lowed b)- legends and ballads. After several less important writers, appeared the founder of Modern Norse Literature, Lud -ig Holberg, (d. 1(584.) The greater part of his life was spent in Denmark, since Norway had no uni- versit}- of its own until 1 11. His comedies are masterpieces. Johan Herman W ' essel (d. 178.5) is noted for a play which satirized the then jjopular bombastic French plays, and brought the national taste back to that of his illustrious predecessor. 15ut subse(.[uentl - the Danes, under the leadership of Ewald (d. 1781,) and Oehlen- schlaeger (d. 1850,) furnished the most important works. Henrik Arnold Wergeland (d. 1845), with his patriotic enthusiasm, though impetuous and somewhat uncultured, created great interest in the distinctively national literature. His opponent, Johan Sebastian Welhaven (d. 1873), a well educated man, and a master of form, maintained the need of assimilating cosmopolitan culture, and turned his attention to interna! and spiritual subjects, as the other to exter- 90 THE liAlKlER nal ones. Their respective adherents are at tlie present time rep- resented, among other less important ones, by Rjornson, a cliampion of the people ' s rights, and Ibsen, concerning whom Boyesen well quoted that the radicalism of liis optimism makes him appear a pessi- mist. Among works which must be read in the original language to be full} ' appreciated is his Per Gynt, from which we have been favored with repeated readings b)- Prof. Olson, who has done much to create interest in this line of work, and to sustain the department introduced by the efforts of Dr. R. H. Anderson, to whom we may feel grateful for thus giving us an easy access to our Pierian spring, Mimer ' s well. These occasional exercises help in calling our attention to conservative or other undesirable tendencies, which can thus the more easih ' be avoided, making us more liberal scholars and better citizens. ], C.

J X o ciiibcr 1SN2, a small number of students met at the call of Prof. William Trelease, then in care of the Botan - department, to discus.s the advisabilit} ' of or- fjaniziny a society in the special interest of scientific work in the University. As a result, the Natural Histor - Club was formed. Its growth has been steady, but necessarily slow. The proijrams include reports on work done by . students in original lines, when possible, and occa- A ' - X sioTial lectures by members of the Faculty. While special topics are treated, technicality is avoided, and the papers and discussions presented are of general interest to science students. A catalogue of the flowering plants and ferns of the vicinity is being compiled by the botanists of the Club. Trips to interesting localities easily accessible are of special interest to those geologically inclined, while zoological work has not been neglected. Pres. T. C. Chamberlin. Prof. F B Power.

OR si.x years pa.st the Yoiin j Mcn ' .s and the Young Women ' s Christian Associations, though distinct organi- zations, have worked together in harmony and consequent!}-, so far as contemporaneous, ha e a common history. The Young Men ' s Christian Asso- ciation was organized in the Univer- sit - in June, 1881, with a member- ship of eight. In 1S84, in order to render Christian work more effective, forces were joined with the University Christian As.sociation, but the union proved ill-advised and re-organization on the old basis took place in 1885. Early in the same ear the ' oung Women ' s Christian Association was organized with a charter membership of six. Since that time the history of the two associations has been a record of gradual, but it is to b e hoped, permanent growth both numericall}- and spirituall_ -. . n imjiortant advance was maiie in 96 THE BADGER. 1889, when the associations elected the first college general secre- tary in the West. Thus far experience has borne witness to the wis- dom of the movement. In the same year another and larger pro- ject, for the extension of Christian work in the University, was set on foot by forming a nucleus of a building fund to be increased as opportunit)- might permit. During the past year the fund has been increased to $12,000, and it is hoped that in the near future the associations will have a building of their own, commodious and per- fectly adapted to their needs. The object of the association is to aid in the development of the Christ-life in its members and in the other students of the Univer- sity. To this end joint devotional meetings on Sunda} ' afternoon and s eparate mid-week meetings are held throughout the school year. To aid in the effective use of the Bible, training classes have been formed. Much help is also derived from a study of the Psalms one evening ' a week in a class conducted by Prof. Freeman. The University extension idea has been applied for some time to the work of the association, the young men conducting local con- ferences in the interest of Christian work in a number of places near Madison. Both associations support and conduct a mission Sunday school and hold services Sunday evenings in a part of the city re- mote from churches. Both associations hold annual conventions. Nor is the social life neglected. O ' n the first Saturday evening of the fall term the associations tender a reception to the students of the Uni ' ersity, but a special effort is made cordially to welcome those just beginning their college work. At the last reception the President and the Faculty honored the association by aiding in re- ceiving those attending. During the year several informal recep- tions are given at Ladies ' Hall. These occasions are made as attractive and homelike as possible. Thus the social side of life is made a significant factor in the Master ' s work.

HK Univcrsit} ' Cliaiining Club was organized October 2 I, 1886, with an avowed desiie of its members for mutual religious helpfulness, the distribution of religious literature, and a cor- respondence with former members of the University upon general religious needs and experiences. ■ The membership was opened to the Faculty and students of the University, from whom the movement received hearty support. There has been, from the beginning, a marked growth of the club in numbers and in usefulness. Its meetings are held on alternate Sunday evenings in the parlors of the Unitarian church. Subjects of religious, social, and economic value have been presented and freely discussed. Among the sub- jects treated since the last issue of Till ' . R. I)(;er, are: Condition of Religious Thought and Morality in Russia. Count Tolstoi and His Religious views. The Teaching of Religion and Morality in the Public Schools. Russia ' s Exiles and Exile System. The Life of Mohammed. Islam. Religion in Turkey Social Life of the Turks. Evolution, — Its Relation to Pauperism and Crime.

( )XTKMPLATING the uniformity of their existence, a few of the students of the Universit}-, three years ago, came to the conclusion that one part of their college course, viz. , the social part, was not receiv- ing the attention it ought to be given, and that. through no too, fault of their own. F or it was a fact patent to all, that at that time if a man did not wish to join a fraternity, or the Y. M. C. A., there were practically no social advantages open to him. The matter was discussed, and the ' result was the organization of the Social Club. It held a series of twelve parties that winter in Armor)- Hall. They were a success from the start. These parties have been continued and their popularity shows that the organiza- tion supplies a real want. At first the membership was limited to sixty from the two upper classes. That restriction, howe er, has been abolished and now, anyone recommended b - the e.xecutive committee can become a member, and such eligibilit) ' is not deter- mined by ancestry, influence, or money. The limitation of the membership is a guarantee that the hall will never be uncomfortably crowded, and consequently the average Librar) Hall party, crowded like the side-show-tent of a circus, with each couple indifferent to jostles and crushed-toes in their mad rush for that 4x0 clear space always just allowed, — this Library Hall II ii: I MU lAI.

HIS association was organized the latter part of the fall term of 1890, to play a whist tournament. It is composed of two teams from each fraternity, each team playing one game of fifty points with every other team except the other team from the same fraternity. It is man- aged by an executive com- mittee of one from each fraternity and by a secretary and treasurer. The object of the association is to bring the fraternities into closer relations through friendly contests around the whist table. Prizes will be awarded to the winning team and to the winning fraternity at the close of the contest. The tournament began the first week of the winter term of 1890- ' 91, and will be concluded the last of March. No regular meetings are held, each team arranging the time and place of play with their opponents. MEMBERS. Secretary and Treasurer, CHI PSI. BETA THETA PI. Claire B. Bird, and Burton H. Esterley.

We have come to fill a long felt want in the Uni ersity, — an opportunity to perfect our- selves in the manly art of shooting. Several ineffectual attempts at organiza- tion have been made in the past two }ears. but not until January IT, 1S91, when eight members as- sembled for practice, were we assured of a perma- manent club. We expect to secure c=, -« -- - ' ' grounds for trap-shooting on the shore of Mendota, immediately back of the University. Membership in the club is limited to students. Undoubtedly our history is one of the future, and another B.ADGER will bring forth ten brace shot with a camera, together with fier}- legends and loud reports. F H. .Mien F. H Bartlett. H. V Brown.

Education, if complete and generous, must fit a man to perform ' justly, skillfully, and magnanimously, all the offices of war no less than peace, — Miltou fc O department of the Universit - has had more iip.s and downs, 1)1 has pa.s.sed through more changes than has the military depart- ment, and none is to-day in a more flourishing condition. When the University opened in September, 1861, the whole country was in a tumult. Civ ' il war was actual!} begun; naturally great interest was taken in military matters. This feeling found ex- pression in the Universit)-, b)- the formation of a volunteer company. Drills were kept up with unflagging spirit, and so proficient did the boys become that they compared very favorably with the regular volunteer companies at Camp Randall. The act of 1S66, reorganizing the University, declared that all able-bodied male students of the University shall receive instruction and discipline in military tactics. Great difficult} ' was experienced in securing an army officer to take charge of the department, and no regular drill was held until the tall of 1868. At that time Coi.. W. R. Pea.se, U. S. A., took charge. There was a four years ' course of study with practical in- struction in the three branches of the service; a half score of text books were used, and everything was planned upon a grand scale. Those who completed this course with honors were to be recom- mended to the war department for appointment as second lieutenants in the United States Army. No one, however, was appointed. One fact was overlooked in the organization of the department, that was that the boys did not like to drill. The war was over. Some of the boys, bearded fellows of thirty, had seen three or four years ' service, and had drilled until they were thoroughly tired of it; the younger students hated drill — from principle. COL. PEASE, (irreverently called Gen. Marrowfat Pease, by the boys,) was a dapper little man, and a lover of good soldiership. A more dis- heartening task could not have been assigned him. The commissioned officers were, for what reason we do not know, chosen from the senior class. None of them, as it happened, had seen service, while in the ranks were many who had marched with Sherman to the Sea, or fought with Grant in the Wilderness. The adsurdity of such an arrangement is apparent. Mere boys of no experience at all in military matters in command of veterans ! The result was all that could be expected. The very appearance of the company was enough to cause laughter. No uniform being prescribed, the boys often wore their —0. W. BAITAI.ION. 107 oldest and most fantastic garments. One. an orderly sergeant of Company D., now an ex-congressman and a prominent attorney of this cit_ -. al va -s wore an old overcoat antl a pair of large yarn mit- tens. This same orderh was one tla - drilling a squad on the lake shore, just north of the old North Dorniitor)-. The squad was moving towards the high bank, but the orderlj- could not remember of any conini.uul to pre cnt the squad from going off the bank into the lake. At last, just as they reached the edge of the bank, the command halt occurred to him. Rut so excited was he that, after he had halted them, he could think of no command to get them away from their dangerous proximity to the steep bank. The Colonel seeing the difficulty bustled u]). and giving the orderly a withering glance, faced the squad about, and was about to give Forward Squad, when, perhaps by some intervention of the gods, his tongue failed him. and he shouted: Squorward I ' ad. The boys shouted, and the orderl}- was happy. Many an officer, besides the orderly, found himself a ictim of a poor mcnior ' ; and it was a common sight to see a captain hastily draw an Upton ' s tactics from his pocket and gi e any command his eye chanced to rest upon. Many humorous events are to be found in the history of this de- partment, but space will admit of no more. Coi.. Pe. SE found one year ' s duty all that he could stand and was relieved. As no one was detailed to take his place, PkOF. Franken ' BUKGER, then a tutor in the University, acted as drill-master. In 1870 COL. W. S. Fr. nk- MN relieved him. The department was re-organized, a uniform was prescribed, and drill was made compulsory only during the first two years. Since TS71 the battalion has been successivel} ' in charge of MajorWM. J. S. NicoDEMU.s, U. S. A.; Prof. Allen D. Conover; Captain Charles Kixc, U. S. A.; Lieut. Geo. N. Chase, U. S. A.; Lieut. LuiGI LoMIA, U. S, A.; Lieut. Jas. A. CoLE, U. S. A. In September, 1887, the number of companies in the battalion was increased to three and the next year, to four. Should the at- tendance at the L niversity increase as rapidly as it has in the last two or three years, there will undoubtedly be one or more new com- panies organized in the near future. The catalogue issued in 1870, twenty-one years ago, mentions the fact that a commodious building is now in process of erection, for a drill room and gyinnasiiiiii. May the catalogue of ' 91 be able to state that a drill room and gymnasium ample for the present needs of the L niversity is in pro- cess of erection. THE GIS. Volume V.

During the past two winters, a game of indoor base ball, closely modeled after the outdoor game, has been played in Chicago and other cities by hundreds of clubs, all meeting with great success, so much so, that this fall, an association for the furtherance of the sport in our Universitj- was organized by the students.

U.Wlii H. i- ' RANKKNlU ' RC.KR was born in the village of Edin- burgh, Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, Oct. K , 1845. The family name, evidentl_ - of Teutonic origin, and a name of infrecjuent oc- currence in American records, would give the impression that he was sprung from some German family which has recently come to America. This, howe er, is not the case. His great-grandfather served in the war of the Revolution, having come to this country when a j ' outh, about the year 17 (i. The name tells the story of its origin and makes clear to us that its first possessor was a burgher in one of the free cities of Xortii German}-. After the war of the Revolution this ancestor settled near the boundary of the three states of Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsyl- vania, residing now in the former state, now in the latter. In the natural mingling of races that goes on in the United States, it is not surprising that Professor Frankenburger finds in his line of descent a strain of French, Irish, and Scotch, as well as German blood. Stu- dents of several nationalities may find in Professor Frankenburger a touch of kinship. The famil} ' came to Wisconsin in 1855, settling on a farm in Green County. For nine years the bo - worked on the farm, attend- ing the district school in winter. He prepared for college at Milton Academy, and at the age of twenty-one entered the State Univer- sity graduating with the degree of Bachelor of Philosophy in 18 )!). His graduation from the law school in 1871 was followed by seven years ' successful practice of his profession in Milwaukee. In 1879 he was offered the chair of Rhetoric and Oratory in the University. In accepting this, he was under the impression that in a professor ' s chair he would find leisure for a literary career. While in college, and in the ten years since graduation, he had often courted the muses. In the decade between 1870 and 188(1 he was often called on to enliven with verse the gatherings of the alumni. He seemed to be taking the position here that Holmes has at Har- vard, that of college poet. Among his best poems are My Old Home, The Bells of Bethlehem, Our Welcome Home. Since undertaking the arduous duties of his chair, he has found no leisure for verse. The correction of qm ' res on quires of manu- 128 THE BADGER. script, amounting to folio volumes each term, has imposed silence on the muse. In 1882 he strengthened his acquirements as a teacher of oratory by a course of instruction at Boston under one of our best dramatic speakers, an associate of the actor Edwin Forrest. Professor Frankenburger has poured his life into university work. No professor has given himself more unreservedly to the duties of his office. No professor has had a more cordial under- standing with his students. Peculiar embarrassments beset the work of a professor of rhetoric. Hut Professor Frankenburger never loses his temper. His good nature is perennial and his patience tireless. He has faith in his .students, in their ability to do something better than anything they have done, or are now doing. This confidence is catching. It inspires the student to do his utmost. Professor Frankenburger is strong on the social side of university life. His geniality and affability, his readiness to appreciate his pupils ' e.xcellencies and to s -mpathize with their aspirations, attract them to him as an adviser and friend. In spite of the exacting duties of his chair, he has been a frequent contributor to the periodical press, and is an active member of the Madison Literary Club. Some of the papers read by him before this organization are Sources of Chaucer ' s Stories, Life and Works of Sir Jno. Suckling, Order of Composition of Shakes- peare ' s Plays, Great Shakesperean Actors (two papers), The Stage, Walt Whitman. One of the best of his literary efforts is his lecture on Emerson, for the deli -ery of which he receives more invitations than he finds time to accept. A grateful task, and no doubt the most successful of all his work, is his address on the Life and Public Services of Professor William F.

EAKI.V KAVS OK TIIK UNIVERSITY. I ' ll Garly O ' H of ' 7 yni ' Dersity. rii o I ' liiversity of Wisconsin is as old as the State itself. The constitution of the new state, as it still exists, with but few amend- ments, was adopted b - popular vote in March. 18-48, and the first session of the Legislature commenced in June of the same year and continued during the summer. Among the laws passed by it was one locating the State University at Madison, and providing for its organization and government by a Board of Regents to consist of a president, and twelve members to be elected by the Legislature for the term of six years. The board was at once filled, and held its first meeting in October. 1 848; it decided to open a prepiratory school for the University on the fifth of Februarj-. IS-lit, and ap- pointed Prof. J. W. Sterling to take charge of the same. Eleazer Root was chosen as president pro tcin, and all of its members were prominent and well known citizens of the new state, as well as old time residents of the territory which preceded it. They were active, earnest, energetic men, proud of the past and hopeful of the future prosperity of the young commonwealth. On the oth da ' of February, IS-iU. the day fixed by the i3oard of Regents, the University of Wisconsin threw open its doors, or rather door (it had but one) to the young men of the state, and gave them welcome. The -oung womeni were not included in this hospitable invitation, and sorfie j-ears elapsed before public sentiment became so educated and strengthened as to break down forever the barrier which precluded the daughters of the state from sharing equalh- in the benefits of a liberal education, so freely offered to its sons. The first day of the University was not a particularly animated nor cheering one. The building selected occupied a small fraction of the space upon which now stands the Madison High School, and contained but two rooms, — the upper one occupied by one maiden lady as teacher, and perhaps a score of girls as scholars, who, taken as a whole, were known as the Madison Female Academy; the lower b}- one bachelor, as instructor, and fourteen bo ' s as students, who, in the aggregate, constituted all that there then was of the Wis- consin L ' niversity. Madison at that time was a pioneer village of about twelve hundred inhabitants, so beautiful in its natural sur- roundings as to promise what it has since become, a desirable loca- 162 THE BADGER. tion for a great institution of learning, a charming home of Art and Science Between the Capitol and the present site of the Univer- sity there was neither street nor avenue. The hill was covered with forest trees and underbrush, as was all the intermediate space, and to reach it one had to follow a country road part of the way, and cattle paths the remainder. The f rst school room which was used both for study and recitation, was rather primitive in its ap- pearance. So were the students, and everything and everybody else except the teacher. He was prim, but not primitive. The paint upon the benches and the blackboard was scarcely dry, and the bovs in the rear of the hall sat upon saw-horses the first day and chairs the next, each bringing his own. During the term six addi- tional pupils were admitted, and the f rst half year closed with twentv students. The second term was a trifle more prosperous, and the f rst school year ended on the 3ith day of January, IboO, with two exhibitions and twenty-seven students; and a hopeful out- look for the organization of a freshman class as early as the suc- ceeding autumn. An interesting and important event in the early history of the University was the inauguration of the first Chancellor, which took place on the 16th day of January, 1850. Inaugurating a chancellor was rather a novel enterprise in those days, and was attended with considerable pomp and ceremony; at least this inauguration was. The day was fixed by the Board of Regents; both houses ot the Legislature adjourned in honor of the occasion, and all courts, so- cieties and conventions postponed their sessions. There was a marshal of the day and a procession, at the head of which was a brass band, closelv followed by the students, who were expected to and did follow the time-honored custom of being the first persons who reached the doors of the audience room, and the last who were permitted to pass them. Citizens and strangers had precedence and the boys, for whom all this fuss was being made, were left out in the cold as usual. There was an order of exercises, a stereotyped one- that is to say, three pieces .of music by the band, properly sandwiched in their appropriate places, one prayer, one benediction, one address on behalf of the Regents, an inaugural by the Chancel- lor a countermarch back to the hotel from whence the procession started, and the ceremony was over. The University had a head to it and the bovs all knew it, or thought they did, and the Regents had a president, the Chancellor holding that office ex o ao, under the law as it then existed. The Chancellor ' s address was an able and instructive one, evidently prepared with great care, and very im- pressively delivered. i:. Ki HANS (iK iiii iM i:Ksnv. ir)3 The first frcshinaii class was oiyani .ccl, as aiiticipatctl, at the commencement of -the fall term of iJSyO, containinj but tiiree mem- bers, two of whom jradiia tl as the class of ISa-i-. lioth graduates are still living, and are the pioneers of the University. A second freslinian class was formeil in the fall of si l_ containing four mem- bers. None of this class graduatetl, anil therefore there were no graduates in liSoTi. I ' he class of iNi ' iCi commenced in the fall of St)-2 with fifteen members, but four of whom graduated. ihc L ' ni ersit - opened in September, ISo ' i, with the three college classes mentioned above, twenty-three students in the preparatory classes, making in all sixty-six students in attendance, — a fairl)- good showing for an institution wliicli had been in existence but little more than three years. The facuit)- at that time consisted of the Chancellor, two professors, and one tutor, who were paid the following magnificent salaries: the Chancellor, $2,(MHI; professors, $1,(MMI each; tutor, $y( ( . These early fathers of the L ' ni crsit_ - must ha c liad un- doubted Io e for their profession, as the salaries paid could ha e af- forded no sufficient inducement to them to pursue an uncongenial occupation. The subsequent history and progress of the University is within easy reach of such of the students as take sufficient interest in the subject to investigate it. Perhaps much that has already been writ- ten might have been wiseK ' omitted for the same reason. It is the unwritten history, — the half forgotten jokes and laughable escapades of the boys of a past generation, — some reminiscences of those who should have graduated, but ditl not, of whom nothing is known b - the present generation of students, and of wliom the University it- self has no record except their names. All of these and other like matters ought pe ' rhaps to form the burden of this article. If such suggestion were made it would afford no ground for criticism; but in acting upon it as though it had been made, the opportunity given to show due and proper appreciation of the learning, ability and char- acter of the members of the first facuit)-, must not be lost. First and foremost in point of time, and length of service, was Prof. John V. Sterling, who died in the harness, after thirty-five years of active and continued service to the University, and to the cause of education. Earnest and faithful in the discharge of his duty to his fellow-men; a wise counselor and a kind friend to the students under his charge; loj-al at all times to every trust reposed in him; it can well be said that he is entitled to the love and respect of all with whom he lived or was brought in contact. At the time John H. Lathrop uas appointed Chancellor, he stood in the front rank of the great teachers of the country. A graduate 154 THE KADGEK. of, and tutor at Yale, a professor at Hamilton, and President of the Missouri University, his high standing and large experience fully justified his election for that responsible position. For eight years the University was under his direction and management, during which time its membership and prestige was largely increased. At or prior to the time of his departure from Madison, he was re- appointed President of the Missouri Universit} ' , which position he held up to the time of his death. He was a very pleasant and dig- nified gentleman, brilliant in conversation, as well as a man of learning and culture, and easily won and always retained the admi- ration and respect of all his pupils. The third member of the first faculty was O. M. Conover, a grad- uate of Princeton College, and a profound Greek scholar. During the eight years that he filled the chair of Ancient Languages, in fact during his entire life, he was devoted to the stud} ' of that lan- guage. It was the dream of his life to visit the land of Homer, — a dream which was fulfilled in his later years. He died at London while on his journe - home from a isit to his beloved Greece. While Prof. Cono -er was known to the students to be a man of cul- ture and refinement, of kindl} ' feeling and great learning in his par- ticular field, for all of which they thoroughly honored and respected him, he did not seem to acquire so strong a hold upon them as the other professors. This was due undoubtedly to the fact that he lived more or less in the clouds, and was unable to descend to their le el, or else they were unable to rise to his. Prof. Carpenter ' s connection with the University as tutor extended only from 1852 to 1854. He was a recent graduate of Rochester University, and a comparatively young man. He was e.xceedingly well liked by all of the then students, and was regarded as a good teacher, and promised to become a successful one, — a promise which seems to have been fulfilled by his subsequent career as pro- fessor at the L niversity. Among the earlier students at the University during the years that elapsed between 1849 and 1850, there were apparently some of the future great men of the Republic, who, alas! have never ma- terialized. There were lecturers, who have never since lectured; poets, who have ne ' er since sung; rebels, who have never since rebelled, and orators whose voices have failed to reach the ears of the public at any time within the last thirty-five years. To rescue from absolute obli ' ion these almost forgotten pioneers of eloquence, thought, and song, and restore them to their proper places in the University annals, is a work of pleasure to him who writes, and may be of some interest to those who read this article. KAKl.N ' MAYS ol- llli: I l KKsnv. IT); ) riic fust stiuloiit to (listinmiisli liimsoll in llu- I ' niNrisity wmUl, was George V ' . Stoncr, wh-o -in the iall i i I 4 ' .i siuidcnly ascertained that nature had ciuKnvcd Irrfii witli wonderful nicsmcric powers. It is douhtlid if he woulii lia c c ' er disctncrcd its existence, however, ha t it not been foi ' the more tlian friindi)- interest manifested by I lorace Rublce, now of the Milwaukee Sentinel, and Charljs T. Wakeley, of the class of isr)4, who arrani ed seances, selected sub- jects, and dul - instructed George as to the various methods of transferrin the mesmeric lluid. — a i ift of the gods, — from the ope- rator to his subject, and b ' a reversal of the passes to re-transfer the same to its original source of supply. The usual progranime at the e ' ening sessions devoted to mesmerism, w.is to place the suliject next to the wall, facing the spectators, who. as the operator with his back towards them was throwing his whole soul into his efforts to control him, would quietiv exhibit to the subject the contents of their pockets, thereby enabling him to answer w ith absolute and unfailing accuracj ' . the various questions which might be put to him. The usual course of proceedings was varied on one occasion, when the subject, in pursuance of a previous understanding w ith e ery- bod ' but the operator, proved refractory, and refused to wake up. The audience became frightened, so did the operator, fearing that the subject would sleep fore er. The re erse passes followed each other in ijuick succession, grow ing more vigorous as time passed on. Everybody was making suggestions, and all expressing in solemn tones a mortal fear of what might hapi)cn. Hour after hour passed away, while George continuetl at his we;ir - work; great beads of perspiration stood upon liis brow; he hatl di ' ested himself of his clothing to such an extent that he looked like a prize pugilist ready for the fray. FirCally, just as the gray dawn was breaking, and Stoner was read)- to sink half f unting to the floor from sheer ex- haustion, the subject graciously consented to wake up and look around upon the audience with bewildered eyes, and the seance was ended. About this time a iolent discussion arose among the students as to whether Stoner himself could be mesmerized, — some holding that it was impossible because he was so thoroughly impregnated with mesmeric force, while others insisted that this force might be so weakened by loss of sleep as to enable an operator of lesser power to control him, and put him into a mesmeric state. The latter iew prevailed, and for forty-eight hours George omitted sleep from his daily routine, and as a result he had no sooner been placed in the chair as a subject, than he fell into a deep sleep which lasted for man ' hours. . THE BADC.ER. When he awakened he was overwheh ed with congratulations from all sides, upon the wonderful speech he had dehvered wh.le m the mesmeric state, and he was at once hailed as • ■ the .nsp red apostle of Mesmerism, A written manuscript (carefully prepared by Rublee and Wakeley) was placed before him as a very w-k state „,cnt of the wonderful th n,s h. had uttered whde u the trance e and he was strongly urged to enUghten the world by read.ng the same as a lecturer, and by publication. He at once consented, and in the little brick school house, which formerly stood upon 1 e present s te of Turner Hall, the f rst lecturer of the Un.versUy unfolded to an adm.r.ng and delighted aud.ence. the great myster.es ' r : - was not materially n.reased by the remark of the lecturer contained n. his open.ng sentences, made with --t gr ty and deliberat.on. that -on such occasions as the present the lec- turer usually gulls his audience, but ,n th,s .nstance ' ; ' -; ; It was at least two years before George understood why it .as that his audience at this particular point, broke forth into such uncon- trollable laughter. Hut Stoner ' s successes were not limited to the lecture f eld He was a remarkably successful purveyor for the midnight feasts oc- casionally given in Prof. Sterling s old recitation room. He a a Uni.ht of the hen-house and a holy terror to innocent ..ung chickens. Nothing that was in s,ght and eatable ever escaped the g sp of his brawny hand, -not even a bee-hive which he brought fn one night, covered with a blanket, and full of bees and honey. The bees were smoked out, and the honey, so long as ,t lasted, was a drug in the market to George and his immediate friends, and on such occasions everybody was his friend. Stoner sometimes showed a considerable amount of financial ability, as the following incident will illustrate. A party of the students arranged for a sleigh-ride to Sun Prairie, with a dance and supper accompaniment at one of the hotels of that little village kept by a retired Baptist clergyman. ■ , u- - ' ceorge drove a horse and cutter, with his best girl by his side, and everybody had a very enjoyable time until the hour arrived for breaking up L settling the bills. No arrangement had been made with the landlord, and he improved the opportunity to increase his worldly store. Hrs prices bankrupted more than one inapecunious student but all of them managed to borrow from each other, to pay up except Stoner, who had no thought of paying such an excessive bin In the confusion he slipped out to the barn, hitched up his own horse, and having secured possession of his girl, started back KAKI.N I ' AVS OK I 1 1 K T M KKSIIV.

The landlord was pr .fuse in his apologies, restored the bridle, abused the hostler tor his careless- ness . ave dinner to Stoner and his friend, and his horse, paid his livery bill, and refunded the mone - which he did not pay the night before, and then begged him to say nothing about it tor tear it would injure his trade. After leaving the University. George went to I ' raine du Lhien. where it is said he located upon the sunny shores of the Wisconsin River and because it was ea.sy work, commenced digging post holes for exportation. The f rst consignment caved in before reaching its destination, and the enterprise was abandoned. Since then he has discovered and abandoned a great many mineral holes in Colorado and California, without very great success, and he still keeps on prospecting and hoping. The poet made his appearance in the early fifties. He was a plasterer by occupation and came from the vicinity of Black Earth. He had a good figure and was fond of dress, supported a cane and a broad turn over collar, evidently admired his own jet black curK- locks and had a decided swagger in his walk. It did not take the college wags a great while to decide that here was a proper sub]ect for amu.sement. A decided resemblance was at once observed to the great Byron and freely commented upon and discussed m his presence. He was told that he dressed, acted and looked like Byron, and as a nece.ssary consequence he ought to be able to write poetry like him. His vanity, already more than sufficient for the ordinarv mortal, grew rapidly; under the tutelage of such a man as Wakele ' y, his eyes commenced to roll about with true poetic frenzy. — the spirit of poetry took possession of him. and was in and around and about him. A revelation had come to him. — he was no mere petty versifier, — but a born poet full of the genius of song. And so he commenced to write. Day after day he ground out his verses, and day after day a committee of students sat upon them and dis- cussed the ideas, the sentiments, the rythm. the measure, and the spelling, until finally it was concluded that his genius ought to be 158 IHK liADCKK. heralded to the world, so that like the other immortal bards he might be honored of all men. A tour page pamphlet was issued containing all his verses, and sent forth to the public, and the public as it often does, laughed and scouted, and with the heartlessness of a great newspaper dropped the four-leafed clover of song into the waste-paper basket. Genius was crushed and the unappreciated poet of the Great West went back to his trowel and as lost to the world.

The last quotation is either not genuine, or else some vandal in his laudable efforts to correct the orthography, has utterly destroyed and obliterated its poetic spirit, and substituted every day commonplace prose in its place. The first University orator had not so marked an individuality as either the lecturer or the poet. There were more of him, — in fact every one of the early students was either an orator or just about to become one. The current of youthtul hope and ambition set ' ery strongly in that direction. Among those who v ere thus affected was George Woodward, who was endowed with a very good voice and a fair command of language. He had fully as good an opinion of himself as his gifts in that direction would justify, and was am- bitious to be made one of the speakers at an approaching exhibition. The faculty ignored him in making up its list, much to his chagrin and disappointment. Thereupon the boys dug a pit for him and he fell into it. W ' ord was passed from one to another, and at the next meeting of the Athenaean, upon the pretext that the faculty had invited the Society to appoint one of their number to deliver an oration, George to his manifest pleasure was unanimousl}- selected. At the same time a coinmittee was appointed to whom the orator was required to submit for criticism, revision, review, correction. mtm KAKi.v HANS (II- Tin: rNi i.Ksri . 159 amendment, and eondcnsatiijn, his oration when written. The com- mittee sat in judt;ment u u this ])roiKicti(in several eveninj js, and its members were w.vy critical in their sut j estinns and somewhat difficult to please, but it was finally completed to the satisfaction of all, and a womlerful specimen of composite literary architecture it was. It was a delicate piece of business to advise Woodwarci at this staj,re that the facult) ' had riscindeil its action, and th.it his ()[)por- tunity for an oratorical display was lost. It was well and wisely done, however, b ' somebod , and in such a way as to create no frictit)n or ill feeling ' between him and his fellow students. He shortly after left the University, studied law, was ' fairly suc- cessful in that profession, and died at Madison about twentyyears ago. The first college rebellion occurred in the winter of 1S.53--4, and in -ol ed what the students regarded as a great moral principle. The revolt was universal, — the chapel antl class rooms were de- serted, and all business was suspended. It was the first strike. One of the boys was suspended because, after frankly owning up to his share in an escapade, the details of which have long since been forgotten, he refused to disclose the names of the students who were associated with him in that particular piece of mischief. This was a species of loj-alty which has been duly recognized and appreciated by students of all classes, and all climes, and in all ages, and the students of the University were quick to seize the opportunity and make up an issue with the facult -, which was neither more nor less than the re-installment of the suspended student, or no students at all. As has frequenth ' been the case in more recent strikes, a commit- tee was appointed b - the students to confer with the facult) ' , and frequent meetings and animated discussions were had between them, which finally resulted in a victory for the boys, — the offending stu- dent was re-instated, the students went back to their classes, and the principle was firmly established that an informer was entitled to no reward for his baseness, aiid a refusal to make himself such was no such offense either in morals or law, as made him liable to pun- ishment. The centra! figure of this bloodless contest was D. K. Tenney, now a prominent lawyer of Chicago. He went back to his studies and completed his freshman year, and then closed his con- nection with the institution, remarking to his classmates that he guessed he could get along without the l ' ni ersit} ' as well as the University could without him. He has since been known among the students as the first graduate, also as the man who ought to have graduateil but didn ' t. There were other students in those tlays w ho ought to have gradu- ated but did not. .Among them were K. Smith, who for many 160 THE BADGER. years past has been and is now a political writer upon the Chicago Times; Hiram Barber, Jr., at one time a representative in Congress, from Chicago; William Pitt Dewey, a brother of the first governor of Wisconsin, who some years since removed to Dakota, and was United States surveyor of that territory; the two Deckers who were carried on the University rolls as Decker first and Decker second, but were better known to the students as Single Decker and Double Decker; the two Igleharts, of Chicago, both named Nicholas, one of whom was called prett}- Nick because he was handsome, and the other virtuous Nick because he was homely; Albert U. Wyman, for a long time treasurer of the United States, and now a prominent banker of Omaha; whose middle initial was and always has been a mystery, and whom the boys called A. University Wyman, or A. Unicorn Wyman as inclination prompted; Harvey F. Hubbard, now a successful manufacturer at Manitowoc; William M. Doty, a printer at Chicago, and then a fanatic on the subject of diet, whose rations consisted of cold water and graham crackers, — so hard that you could ' nt crack them with a hammer, — which were shipped to him periodically from Janesville in pillow cases, by the bushel; Horace Rublee, formerly United States minister to Switzer- land, and now of the Milwaukee Sentinel; the brave, impetuous John H. Lathrop, Jr., son of the Chancellor, w ' ho was one of the forty-five Americans who so man - years ago were shot down in the market place of a Mexican village, for attempting to annex a Mexi- can province to the United States; the brilliant Leopold Lathrop, who died at Madison in 1858, just before reaching his majority, with the promise of a bright future stretching out before him — unfulfilled; William H. Arnold, of Milwaukee, who one summer ' s day was swal- lowed up in the waters of Lake Michigan, with the other victims of the ill-fated Lady Elgin; and George B. Clason, another Mil- waukee -outh, ho -anished from the classic halls of the University almost as soon as he had entered them. He was a generous, free- hearted, roystering young blade, whose allowance for the term dis- appeared in three weeks, and whose name appeared upon the books at a liver - stable more frequently than did his responses at the chapel roll-call. In fact he thought more and knew more of horses than he did of books, and gave more time to them. However he is one of those who have demonstrated that success in life does not necessarily depend upon a liberal education, being now general manager of one of the Missouri railroads, and in all respects a suc- cessful man. Others there were among these earl}- students who are worth - of mention, did time and space permit. Some of them have long since passed away; others have disappeared and left no trace behind, while others still are living within the shadow of the Uni- KAkI HANS Ol- I UK rM KKsirv. |i: veisit)-, whose c;ul-y stiuk ' at-litc lias become almost a m tli tdtlu-m- selvcs and is wholK ' imkniuxm to those around them.

As it has survived the waves anil weathers of time for the space of fort) ' ears, and counts amontj its jiresent members those who are ahuiulantly able to speak for it, nothini; ' further need be saiil of it here. The pioneer, in the matter of Uni ersit - literature, was a monthK periodical, published under the aus])ices of the Athenacan society, called i ' he Student ' s Miscellany. The first number was issued January i, IS; ) , and its editors were John F. Smith, of the class of T)?. Richard W. llabbell, of ' o.S, and K. O. Hand, of ' ; )!•. Charles Kairchild, of oT, was the business manager, and the subscription price, one dollar per year. It was rather of a pretentious primer for those days and struggled along for a year or two, and then, like all other first enterprises of this character, it was suspended and heard of no more. This allusion to it is made more for the purpose of re- cording the fact that there once existed such a periodical than of discussing its character ami aims. In the first ti-n years of its existence the University graduated but fourteen students; of these, four. Booth and Wakely of the class of ' 5-i, I ' lower, of ' 515. and Fairchild, of ' 57, entered the preparatorj- school in h -bruar_ -, |n41i . 11 of these earl) ' graduates are still liv- ing except Sidne) ' I ' oo t, of ' 5f), and T. I). Coryell, of ' 57. No oiie can realize at this tinie the obstacles that beset the founders of the Universit) ' ; the discouragements that surrounded the faculty, the struggle for bread and butter b) ' povert) ' stricken students in their efforts to get a liberal education. It is a matter af surprise, not that so few graduated, but that an)- shoidd ha ' e done so under such adverse circumstances. . s a rule, those who fell b) ' the wayside were those who could best have afforded to continue, and those who remained were the ones who ought to have been the most easily- discouraged. There ma) ' have been more or less of a charm in com- bating and overcoming difficulties.

The enormons proportions which corruption is assuming in our body politic is something ap- palling, and it should be a warning for onrstates- men to shut down on the loads of refuse that the old countries are continually dumping on our glorious Republic. The famous Fehlandt bribery case is only a small instance. Senator Fehlandt, it is true, immigrated from Ireland before ' 82. and the present laws are therefore not exactly re- sponsible for his coming in. But the recent enor- mous Chicago boodle case in which such men as Wheeler, Morton and Hardy, scarcely naturalized Bohemians, and such Polish Jews as Armstrong, Ochsuer and Adauisou, play the leading parts, must cause reflections of a serious kind in think- ing men. Shall this continue? Shall such peo- ple as Boss Urdahl govern national politics? I,et the lovers of liberty arise; let the benign spirit of Washington descend, and with his wings fan into a mighty blaze the boiling waves of the bound- less ocean of discontent that is already lurking in the hearts of all true Americans ready to dart out and annihilate with one blow the dark flood that threatens to engulf our liberties.

Telegrams from the Arizona and New Mexico Indian country announce that the Comanches and Apaches are greatly excited over the coming of their long e-:pected Messiah in the person of Jefferson, the medicine man, under whose leader- ship they are dancing the famous ghost dance. An outbreak is feared by the government. We clip the following from the Madison Demo- crat: ' After much delay and expense the old U. W. Alumni nine of ' 91 was re-organized, and yester- day played the long expected game witli their old time antagonists of Evauston. The U. W. ' s, under the management of Prof. Townley.of Lick Observatory, filed on the Lower Campus at 2:30 v. m At 3 p m. I mpire Kelley crawled into his iron cage, loaded his gatling gun and called the game. The trigger of the compressed air gun used in place of the pitcher, was pulled and the ball shot through. Umpire Kelley calling it a foul, where- upon a controvercy arose between the Old Man and the umpire. Before the umpire could get his gun to bear on him. the Old Man felled him with his hickory ball club. This was a signal of action along the entire line. Gathering around their leader the l . W. ' s rushed upon their antagonists. Manager Townley literally swept Capt. O ' Neil ' s head from off his shoulders. Then he aimed a blow at Catcher McDuff who. drawing back his head, saved his life at the sacrifice of his nose and lower jaw. The battle raged fiercely, and .encouraged by fluttering of handkerchiefs and cheers of the ladies our players rallied about the war whoop of Townley. The Old Man died game, trying to swallow a six footer. The sun retired to bed and the heavens blushed at the performance, hut still the battle raged. Midnight came and the stars cast their mellow light over the field of carnage, as victim after victim sank to earth with a silent prayerupon his lips. Above the roar of breaking bones and shrieks of dying victims the voice of Manager Townley could be heard cheering on his men. At noon the next day, overcome with hunger, with one leg and both arms broken, an eye gouged out, and nose chewed to a jelley, the valiant Townley called off his two remaining men and compromised the matter by calling the foul a strike. Twenty-two were killed and fifty-one wounded, but the damage was slight. The dead and wounded were buried, and Townley and remain- ing coiupanions given a banquet at the Park Hotel. We are glad to see our national game played with the old time vigor and spirit. The interest so long abating will no v he renewed. AI ' OI.I.DS SI ' IIK.MK. ](;■.)

So one dark night they caught the lad Who cried aloud. Alas! They trotted him to the ancient gym Under the starlight dim. And as he looked upon his fate No fete it seemed to him A noble junior sat as judge. For judges have discretion. The sophomore class sat on the case, A few sat on the freshman. By dim. mysterious candle light The victim was brought in. The sentence. Peanuts for the crowd To expiate your sin! This is the way in times of old The barbarous students used To prey upon the fresh young men. Who prayed to be excused. Their prayer was heard, the court was closed. And all is altered since then; The sophomores have been reformed; Now who ' ll reform the freshmen? 172 •IHI-: UADGER f 1®ointer. TIS night, and the moonlight is flooding The beautiful city of lakes.

But now he came very much too soon. Finding no one as at noon. Stealthily with fiendish face At the table he sought his place. Then all the dishes he convoked, And ate so fast that the victuals smoked. The way he ' d eat, it could ' nt be beat, All kinds of meat both sour and sweet. He ate the clock, devoured the door, Chewed a hole in the roof, and swallowed the floor. He devoured a cod-fish, a tiny frog. The Thomas cat, St. Bernard dog, A tough old porker, a giant calf. And he tried to gobble up Feeney ' s laugh; But in this attempt he didn ' t succeed. So to try to modify his greed He ate the butter and all the jam And swallowed the winter ' s supply of ham. In addition to this monstrous load The appetizers to his mouth he towed. Mustard, catsup, corn without ears, And then with a series of comical leers. Two bushels of potatoes uniform and all. And bellowed three cheers for Ladies ' Hall. Then the waiting girl that entered the room He gobbled in, including the broom. But still his hunger wasn ' t appeased, For nothing but devouring pleased Poor Observer Ives. OHSKKVKK IVKS 189 When the boys came there that night Their imprecations the air did blight.

I ' . 7 Prof P- SAMPLE RECITATION IN POLITICAL ECONOMY. ■Mr. K- -. will you please give that happy illustration of a burn- ing theater, to show the need of outside agencies in quelling disorder and unhealthy competition? Mr. K ; ' Well, in attempting to investigate such preponderous illustrations, it is necessary that we exercise with alacrity our psychological, physical, physiological, and chemical faculties and contemplate a composite structure in the central portion of a crowded metropolis .Vs we gaze on the edifice, standing at a kilometre ' s distance, a violent chem- mical combination of oxygen, carbon, and other elements occurs. Inside we immedi- ately hear guttural utterances issuing from both masculine and feminine-pharynges. The oxydizing structure is the receptacle of numerous individuals who are gazing upon a spectacular drama. Exit from any orifice is imperative; in the frenzical rush the populace is conglomerated. As we stand (balancing our centres of gravity in a positude of unstable equilibrium over two compound pendulums), awaiting (absent of e. piration of hydrogenous sub- stances from our lungs) the result of the catastrophe, a duo of uniformed enforcers of the state ' s judicial and legislative decrees appear at the seat of action, and laboriously quell the multitude, conducting them from the oxydizing structure with alacrity. The excessive elevation of the temperature, which had caused our nerves to convey an exceed- ingly painful sensation through the medulla oblongata to the cerebrum now subsides with the subsidation of the multitude. Nothing is absolutely destroyed; but the structure has suddenly altered the atomical arrangement of its molecules. The volatile particles of matter dissipated in a gaseous state, while the non-volatile were precipitated as oxides Professor, will you please repeat the question? TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN. Being moved by a spirit of humanity and prompted by the inclinations of our better parts, we, the undersigned, as brothers engaged in a common cause, do hereby form ourselves into a gang, the object of which shall be: To devise means of better transportation, and facilitate more efficient communication between the village of Westport and the city of Madison, in furtherance of our designs it being necessary to survey the land lying in the neighborhood of the Catfish, and make plots accordingly. Believing that systematic endeavor is the gateway to success, and that a strong con- stitution is necessary in the work we are about to undertake, — we do enact the following regulations and restrictions : . quorum for the transaction of business shall consist of one or more members, al- though it shall be tacitly understood that no one member may hold more than ten con- secutive meetings without submitting a copy of the minutes of proceedings of said meetings. The ofiBcers of this association shall consist of all ifiembers in good standing, the duties of each oEBcer to be those for which previous training has fitted him. as well as those which circumstances and existing conditions shall suggest. 198 ' 11 IK liADGEK. For the better prosecution of the work in hand (that the objects of our directed ener- gies may have no rest), in accordance with our well known views on division of labor, our working force shall be organized in departments, from which relays shall be de- tached at short intervals of time. Having regard for the welfare of our employes, it is ordained that no attache of this corporation may pursue the business of the company at a later hour than eleven P. M. Beside establishing an undesirable precedent for union labor, it has been demonstrated that company (s) may not exceed the time limited without being subject to danger from strikes. In all matters of this association the press shall be given free scope, recognizing as we do. the importance of close connection between people, as a promoter of christian love. New members may be taken in at any time after sufficient inquiry has been made as to the candidate ' s adaptability to the surrounding influence. (Signed.) DEI ' . RTMEN ' T OF L. W. E. E.

Pres. — Mr. Ryan. Mr R — During my freshman year I gained an enviable reputation as an expounder of Robert ' s Rules. I think Miss B. will bear me out in this statement. That reputa- tion I am bound to maintain. Let us prciceed as we  ught T would like to hear the call read During this somewhat extended speech Chairman I. had an opportunity of assuming his customary attitude i e. sitting on his collar with his feet on the table. Mr. H — I make a motion to that effect Mr. R. — Please to remember to address the chair. Mr. H. — It would be the chair I think, as Ives has just sunk from view. Mr. McF. — Pray gentlemen, let us have no squabbling. The smart things you are capable of saying should have gone into our Badger Enter A A Mr J. — The entrance of Mr . reminds me that I was at the farm this morning for a drink of milk, and Prof, Henry wished me to sa ' he needed that harrow that he lent the Badger board Mr. F — I move that Mr. K. be detailed to take it back. Enter Mr. K. very deliberately . fter settling himself he proceeds to put on his spectacles and look wise. Miss L. — Mr. Pres., I would like to ask if nothing can be done to compel members to be on time when there is important business to be transacted. Miss B. — Perhaps the gentleman can give a satisfactory account of himself. Miss P. — Who knows but he may have finished off some of his numerous poems. Mk. K. — Ahem! . h! Mr Pres.. ladies and gentlemen, . hem! I need only to state the facts briefly. My brain was over-r-wrought I waited to get rested. Mr. H. — I move we adjourn. Miss P. — I object. Mr. H ' s convex countenance changes. He looks grieved Mr. R. — Again leaves the lock to luck long enough to murmur, A motion to ad- journ is always in order Mr. McF. — May I ask the lady why she objects to adjourn Miss P. — Because. Mr.McF. — I think it perfectly proper to do as the ladies think best Miss S. — Mr. Pres., I wish to express my hearty disapproval of the actions of this board. The male portion acts like a lot of school boys. Jiist because it is getting to be somewhere near six o ' clock, they can think of nothing but supper. There are loftier things than Bread and Butter The idea of juniors of this University, and not only 202 THE baik;er. that, but juniors whom their classmates have honored with a place on the Badger, I say the idea of their acting in this manner is simply disgusting. Mr. Pres. , I believe if we had no business to keep us here, we should remain for the sake of mental discipline and culture. Mr. J. — I quite agree with Miss L. Mr. H. — Mr Pres. I withdraw my motion, as the fair sex seems to oppose; but I ask to be excused, as I find I have lost one of my pairs of specks. As I am on my way to rehearsal this is no joke. Furthermore, I left my ' cello in the rotunda, and as night is coming on, I am afraid it will be too cold for it. As he passed out he adds in a stage whisper. ' ' I always do my best to keep warm that which is left to my care. The members of the board being admirably trained, laughed at this entirely orig- inal joke. Meantime Ives watches his chances to swing his left foot to the top of the dictionary. Mr. McF. — As it is now (VHO and I have a pressing engagement at 8, I move we adjourn. Miss P. — I object. Miss B.— So do I Miss L. — And I, most emphatically. Mr. McM. — May I ask the cause of your objection? Miss B. — I withdraw mine. Miss P. — If you wish to know why I object it is simply this — I expect Mr. R. to pass around some fruit confects. Mr. R. — I gave the money to K. Mr K. — I ordered it, I guess it will be here in time. Pres. — Are there any further remarks? Miss B. — I wanted to present a matter which — Mr. R — I rise to point of order. I believe there is a motion before the house. Miss B. — A matter which I have lo.ng wished to bring before this body; it is the mat- ter of squelching H. I hoped the Pres. would not excuse him, as I wished to see if the combined efforts of the board were equal to it. I have tried it single handed, and thus far can see no effect. Miss P. — I object. Miss B. — Of course inasmuch as we all have tried so long and have failed, there seems little encouragement, but nevertheless, I move. Mr. Pres., that Mr. H. be unmer- cifully squelched. Miss D. — I second that mo — Enter Pat (irate.) — Home wid yees. After he sees the enemy thoroughly routed, he thus soliloquizes; Narra a bit of supper have I had the neet; but that is not enough, but I must go midout schlape.

Also of the latest devices for raising schooners from a bar while the foam is breaking over their sides. His long experience as master of many a schooner, well qualifies him to write on the subject. On Cock Fighting; by J. S Hotton A collection of the author ' s contributions on this subject to the Police Gazette Naturally his articles interest especially the sporting fraternity to which he belongs Stabology, Its Principles and Applications; by Pat Gleason. A handy volume con- taining a full exposition of the subject; besides many practical hints from actual ex- perience, showing how dense ignorance can be veiled by a tempestuous flow of words. Price Sl.T.-) Bluflology; by Th. Kronshage The author is a perfect master of his subject, and shows conclusively, by many experiments performed by himself while in the University. that a well executed bluff will often put to rout a good reason or conceal a woeful lack of knowledge. The Use of the ' Word Take ; by James Frawley. This is perhaps the first time this word has been subjected to philosophical treatment, but the dexterity with which the marvellous possibilities of ' Take ' have been unfolded, reflect great credit on the author. This work is recommended to all Semi Public ,-ind Joint Debaters, and to all others as well who have to talk upon matters they do not understand. A book was received from ' W. F. Dockery. which he forgot to name It contained such a multitudinous mass of words that the editors have as yet been unable to discover the thought and name it for him On Cranial Superabundance; a scientific treatise by Doc Wheeler.

The finished horsemanship of the author led us to expect very much of this work, but our expectations w-ere far surpassed, and we must recommend careful perusal of the book to all freshman amateurs. Practical Astronomy, and Observations on the Heavenly Bodies; by Wiemann and J. F. Griffin. On account of their high standing in the world, the authors of this book have a peculiar advantage in astronomical observations. Nature has peculiarly adapted them for scanning the hea ' ens, and coming in actual contact with the heavenly bodies. Their reports are authentic How to Kill Time; by F. H. Bartlett. This is a valuable treatise on an ancient custom that has recently been reduced to a science. The author has made a life-long, practical study of his subject, and during his university course has given the subject his undivided attention. Philosophy of the Back Seat, or How to Pass in Psych, a useful pamphlet, also con- taining valuable hints on lists and how to compute recitation days. With the aid of this little work it is possible to obtain a diploma without undue wear and tear on text- books, or mid-night oil, and without a burdensome supply of knowledge. .-Vddress G. W. L.

Statistical tables are affixed to the volume, which show how often each joke was used; the results are remarkable. The book is recommended to all fellows, and other people who desire a quickening of the understanding Flowers Plucked by the Way; by W. D. Sheldon The second volume of the poetry of this gifted young poet is of surprising excellence. The delicate sentiment, and gentle melody, rippling along like a meadow brook, place him among the first of American poets. Wisconsin may be proud of such sons.

There did dwell in this place a great and mighty tribe, the tribe of the Feenies. who, though at that time under the leadership of the high and mighty Morse Ives, still retained their old and fearful name Now, I shall tell you of the great victory to which they were led by their chiefs. The Greeks, who are strong but divided into six factions, always at war with one another, and who are noted for their cigarettes and winning ways, wished to have control of the athletics and games in this place, so they banded together to get this control from the Ivites, who had captured it many moons before under the leadership of the invincible Jim Feeney. Now, the Greeks were rich in gold and silver, and wished to make the man with the most gold win; but the Ivites. who preferred to dispose of their lucre in the great hall of learning, art. and pleasure, known as Pete ' s, did much resist this usurpation of their time-honored privilege This gave rise to the first great battle. The two armies were arrayed against each other on the great fighting ground where their predecessors had won and lost many great battles. They were much filled with wind to resist an attack. The great and mighty Ives began and he spake much and mightily: and four sail-boats were carried out to sea, such was the force of the words which issued from his mouth. Then he of the auburn locks, who hails from Waukesha and belongs to neither of the tribes, rose, and took sides against the Ivites. He spake, saying that they were now ready to start on a good money basis; but all of both sides shouted that they were not ready. Then a ' ose the great Heyn and said that he was not ready, and he had auburn locks. Then spake many Ivites but no Greeks. He from the land of Minnesota then arose and spake not long, saying; Taxation without representation is tyranny, but repre- sentation without taxation is d — n foolishness. He was loudly cheered, for never before had he gained fame by the sweat of his jaw. Then darkness settled and all went home to prepare for another battle. 11. The next battle did occur seven days later The Ivites did decide that they would each give one piaster (which is the value of twenty refreshments at Petes) and no more. The Ivites gained the victory. It was a terrible battle. No meat was eaten in the camp of the Ivites for twenty days, such was the exhaustion of their jaws. . nd Ryan did buy for himself a pair of new trousers to take the place of the pants the effort has cost him; and his life was saved and he breathed freely. Ill Now, many days later came the last and decisive struggle. They were to choose a ruler for the games. Those who were thought of were three; one. whose business it is to arrange for the stars to shine; another was he from Minnesota, who had joined the Greeks, and was learned in the law; and one. Carl, the son of John, who was a Greek by profession and invaluable to the Evanston ' s when he played in our games. Each arranged their forces, and with little noise of words the choice was made. The star- shiner, who was an Ivite. carried forth half the pebbles, while he of Minnesota and the son of John divided the other half among themselves BEFORE and AFTER PSYCH. EXAMINATION.

Mk F. l ' KiiiiH. Dear Sir: I consider Dr. Marshall ' s Catarrh Snuff the best remedy in the market for catarrh, cold in the head, and all catarrhal affections. I speak from experience E. B. SPRINGER. Cor. Wabash Ave. and Monroe St., Chicago, 111 Your Snuff never fails to cure a cold in the head, or any catarrhal difficulty. It gives immediate relief. I would not be without it, .and always recommend it to my friends. GliO. P. RICHARDSON. -iiU Fifth Ave . Chicago. I have been in the habit of using Dr. Marshall ' s Catarrh Snuff for the past twenty- five years, and would not be without it in my house. MRS. MARY COFFEY. Vandalia, N. Y I have used Dr. Marshall ' s Catarrh Snuff for at least twenty-five years or more, and cannot get along without ii E, KEELING, Wyoming. Stark County, 111. I used to be troubled with a dryness of the nose — a catarrhal difficulty — and the only thing that relieved me was Marshall ' s Catarrh Snuff. I recommend it in my trade and sell a good deal of it 11 W GIFFORD, Druggist. Marshalltown, Iowa Mr. Keith; Dear Sir: I have sold Marshall ' s Catarrh Snuff for forty years and can truthfully say that no other remedy for that troublesome annoying disease has given such univer- sal satisfaction I invariably carry a supply in my drug stock. W. M. HEFFELMAN, Manager, Standard Drug Store. 388 2 Scovill Ave., Cleveland, Ohio. Mr. Keith: Having noticed that you are the manufacturer of the old Marshall ' s Catarrh Snuff, I want to give my testimony to its great value as a remedy for Sick Headache, to which I am subject Ailer a day of severe labor and exposure I often go home with a severe headache, and I sit down and take a pinch of Marshall ' s Snuff and it never fails to drive away the headache in five minutes. I would not be without it in my house, even if it cost ten dollars a bottle to get it. I well remember thirty-five years ago my father always kept a bottle in the house and considered it the best known remedy for all Ca- tarrhal affections J H BROWN, 343 Erie St., Cleveland, Ohio.

( 111) E offer you a ready made medicine for Coughs, Bron- chitis and other diseases of the Throat and Lungs. Like other so-called Patent Medicines, it is well adver- tised, and having merit it has attained to a wide sale. Call it a Nostrum if you will, but believe us when we say that at first it was compounded after a prescription by a regular physician, with no idea that it would ever go on the market as a proprietary medicine. But after compounding that prescription over a thousand times in one year, we named it Piso ' s Cure for Consumption, and began advertising it in a small way. A medicine known all over the world is the result. Why is it not just as good as though costing fifty cents to a dollar for a prescription and an equal sum to have it put up in a drug store. ' P kCum. My wife and child having a severe attack of Whotjping Cough, we thought that we would try Piso ' s Cure for Consumption, and found it a perfect success. The first bottle broke up the Cough, and four bottles completch cured them. — H. STRINGER, 1147 Superior St., Chicago, Illinois. ii- rTcH MO N b i CiG.

SOLE MANUFACTURER FOR DANE COUNTY OF THE BR0N80N PATENT FLAT-OPENING BLANK BOOK. ffi.e petfotn ed by (he ofhce v , 4111 ISiH Having bought the right for Dane County for the manufacture of the Bronson Patent Flat-Opening Blank Book, I wish to call the attention of Book-Keepers, Accountants and Officials in offices of record, to the most valuable invention ever discovered in the manufacture of blank books. The Only Book that will Open Perfectly Flat, and being stronger, more flexible and more durable on account of the sewing than ,a book possibly can be when bound by any other process. By means of springs, which are fastened at each end of the book, so that when it is opened they draw the outside covers together, thus shortening the width between covers, the book is forced up to a sharp bend in the back, as shown in cut. Another great ad- vantage is. that books, especially large ones, are kept from losing their shape. They cannot be Flattened out in the Back. If you wish to see a sample, call at office in State Journal Block Hoping to receive your patronage, I am, very respectfully. a.
