I'nlens tho lniflncjfs men of Council HIiifM put thrlr hands down In their poekuts and ralso tho money punrantced, there Is a possibility Council illutls may loo tho brigade eticainpuient. Adjutant General flyers Is expected hero In a few dnys to make the llnnl arrangement for the encampment ond up that time ho n ill reaulro that the $1,000 xuarunleeri by tho city ho In the bnnk. When last here ho Intimated that tho' contract could not be closed until tho money was available. The $1,000 fund which was ncccstary to obtain tho encampment for this city still lacks $100 of tho required amount and thorn nppcars to be considerable (llluculty In ralslnR It. The efforts of Company V to secure the additional subscriptions neces sary to make up tho needed amount, are meeting with Indifferent succefs and the boys are somewhat disheartened. Captain Tlnloy yesterday said: "THcro Is no r'cuyltiK tho fact, we aro In dancer of loslnc !he necampment. Tho business men .of the city do not seem to tako any Interest In it and It certainly begins to look as If they had Rone to Bleep on their proposition. Unless we can sucecod In raising In a few days tho halnuco of tho fund required to eniuro tho encampment for this city, It will cortalnly ko rlsswhere. Sioux City Is anxious to securo It and stands ready to put up tho requlrod $1,000 at a moment's notle?. In the event of Council Illuffs falline to mako good tho guaranty by tho time tho adjutant general reaches hero next week, I am afraid tho encampment will go to Sioux City. Tho amount needed Is not large, and If tho busi ness men. would nil chip In It could bo soon raised. i "It would be a black eye for Council I Bluffs for It to go out over the state, that coueci tne money, but the responses aro not or tho most liberal character. I believe, however, that when tho business men real ize that wo aro In danger of losing the brigade encampment, they will bestir them selves, and I still havo strong hopes that tho additional amount required will bo secured so as to be nvallable when Adju tant Oeneral flyers reaches tlio city noxt week."

It gives tho progress of the unl crslty for the pnt year and the recom mendations ot the president for Improve ment nnd growth. There has hc n u healthy Increase In nil tho colleges of the university the past year. Tho grnduato college, with Us new re quirement of residence, hns doubled In numbers nnd Is now, ncrnrdlng to Piesldrnt MncLean, ono of the largest In tbo west. Tho enrollment In the college of liberal arts, S02, gives an Iticrenso not duo to In- reaso In froshmon students, but to the holding of students In advanced lines of specialization, "tint." says President Mac Lean, "tho mere statement of tho gross attendance docs not do the university Jus tice. By the standards of colleglnte re rpiltements for ndmhslon the university Is ninong tho largest of the groat Mtnto uni versities. It Is nlnirnt of a unique type nmong tho larger Institutions, In that Its numbers are not swelled by attached schools or groups of preparatory' students below the colleglnte grade." Tho rigid enforcement of tho requirements for admission has given the university tho best rlnss of students nnd there has been manifest throughout the year a better uni versity spirit. Tho university will grad uate this year S37 students In tho college 100 In liberal nrts, 1.1.1 In law. thlrty-llvo In medicine, sixteen In homeopathlr medi cine, thlrty-tlvo In dentistry and sixteen In pharmacy. Tho university hns enjoyed the pnst year nn Income of $236,000, nn Increase of $,',0,000 over Inst year. Combined courses have been adopted between tho colleges of law and medicine on ono hand and liberal arts on tbo other, mnklng n saving of expenio to tho students nnd lessening the temptation to short-cut courses. The Iown school of polltlenl science, tho summer school nnd the library school havo been formed. The liberal nrts building Is nearlng completion nnd In the fall the university will enter Into possession of property costing $2r,o,000. nio university hns not suffered by tho tiro thnt burned tho medical and south halls, and tho departments burned nut nro In a happy condition. .Mnliilnliix rtrnn 'Athletic, Of tho report of tho director of physical training nnd nthloUca President MncLean says: "The public naturally has dwelt nn our nthletlc success in tho way of winning games, but nt home we especially rejoice in the greater success of maintaining clean athletics and In tho dissemination through tho entire work of the university ot the high and fair spirit of true sportsmanship. The ethical element has been mndo central In athletics nnd developed by them. In physical training the opening of tho work for young women through the appointment of u woman assistant hns been successful. Tho demand hns become Imperative for the speedy erection of n gymnasium nnd nrmory, not only for the work of this de- 1 partmcnt, but nlsn for that of military sclcnco and tactics. The military depart ment hns earned tho support of tho regents to bo given It In the securing ot a regular nrmy officer for the ensuing year." Of the students of tho university Pres ident McLean snys: "Tho Increase In com mon university spirit fostered by every possible means nnd not the lenst by train ing nnd success In literary, debating, ora torical and nthletlc contests and by tho convocations of faculties and students, has added greatly to tho morale and morals of tho students. Even tho tiny police forco of Iowa City testify to tho good behavior of the students. Tho two public excep tions (tho assault upon the opera house during the celebration of tho Michigan foot ball victory and the kidnaping of tho freshman class president) havo been nmply ntoned for nnd student sentiment has prac tically been ono with tho faculty. The stalwart chnracter of tho youth of Iowa nsserts Itself strongly nnd happily In the college democracy. In short, wo havo tho most nnd tho best students In scholarship and character. As an attraction to Intend ing (Undents as an assurance for tho future of the university stnnds tho fact that Iowa has r,.r,20 alumni, ranking In this particular eleventh among all tho educational Insti tutions In tho United States." I'o I n tn Out Need of Mimriiin. President MacLcan pointed out tho need ot a museum for tho Greek department and for an endowed scholarship nnd for membership of tho university In tho schools of American archaeological ItiBtl tutei In Athens and Rome. Of tho college of law President Mac Leans says that tho extension of tho course from two to three years "makes partic ularly for the extension and enrichment of tho instruction, which will maintain tho collego equal to tho reputation your law committee found It had In Its search for a chancellor tho best In the west and ono of tho best In tho United Stales, Tho unexpectedly large enrollment ot first-year students for tho threo-year courso gives assuranco that wo aro but meeting tho demands of tho best youth of Iowu." Dean-elect Gregory recom mends the extension of library facilities by removing the partitions of tho library and building n gallery around tho outside walls. President MacLenn concurs In this nnd says thnt the collego of law should havo the entire cnpltol building to accom modate tho three-year classes. Another residence professor of law Is recommended by tho president. Of the collego of medicine President MncLcnn says: "This college also enjoys the largest enrollment In Its history nnd rises with promise of now development out of tho nshes of the fire. Prof. Bler rlng sends word from Europe that bo Is having success In collecting specimens, models nnd apparatus to replace those burned." The dean nnd faculty desire thnt "Iowa's university will not posses.t a most modem medical school build ing at a less expenditure t linn $200,000, wholhcr your efforts In our hehulf tnke tho direction of a single Inrgn or heveral small buildings." Dean Mlddlctnn hopos "thnt tho laboratories to como from you tnny far transcend nny simple hospital plant In their boneflrencn; that original research moro than slmplo tcnchlng may mako their power for good, nnd that from tho University of Iowa may go out mnny Inventions tor tho healing of tho nations, for, as Dr. Keen bays, 'Tho medical hchnol which trained a Lister, a Pn3teur or a Koch hns done moro for hiimnulty than nil tho hospitals of this country com bined,' " Onnvril ('limn (iriiilnnlf a.
