young men, and In 1888 Professor Wll
ton accepted an election to the chair ol
history and political economy at Wes
leyau university. Mlddletown, Conn.
" From the start Professor Wilson's
courses were extremely popular. And
well indeed they might be. for New
Kngland bad rarely beard such instruc
tion as was given iu the lecture room
of Wesleyan's professor of history aud
political economy. While at Middle
town he continued his lectureship at
Johns Hopkins. Now, however, instead
of going down once a week he bunch
ed his twenty-five lectures in a month
of vacation allowed him by the Wes
leyan trustees. His fame as a popular
lecturer also was growing apace, and
he was frequently called to give ad
dresses In New Kngland and the east
ern states. It was while at Middle
town that he wrote "The Slate," a vol
ume which, with less pretentions to II.
erary form than Ids other work. Involx

Mr Wilson was a member of the ath

the keenest interest In the college
sports. One student of the time re

Life at Mlddletown was pleasant.
But Mr. Wilson's growing reputation
would not perwH him to remain there
When iu 1SU0 the chair of Jurispru
deuce and K)lllics in Princeton col
lege leeame vacant through the death
of Professor Alexander Johnson the
tnisiees elected to it the Princeton
graduate, who bad so tjuicklv distin
guished himself as a student of poll
tics.
Soptend'er. 1800. then, found Wood
row Witsei again domiciled in the
Jersey eol'egiate town. He xvas now a
man whose renown had begun tc
spread iu the world, an author, a pub
lie sneaker of enviable repute, tin
head of a family, a figure of consid
eration, a doctor, if you please, both of
philosophy and of laxv.
The Wilsons rented a house In Li
brary place. After a few years they
built a home for themselves ou an ad
joining lot, an attractive half tlin
lcred house designed by Mrs. Wilson.
The new professor stepped at once
iut, the front rank, as indeed became (
a Princeton graduate, a member of one
of the most famous classes the old
college had graduated, a man thor
uglily imbued with the best tradi
tions of the plate. But his lectures
Princeton had no tradition that ac
counted for their charm. They In
stantly became popular: the attendance
.uoonted until It surpassed that ever
before or since given any course of

with a itervading sense of humor. Pro
fessor WiUon's lectures were further
marked rty the great freedom with
which he delivered himself of his
views on current eveuts. It was bis
custom to put students on their honor
not to iv i blm; there were always
likel.x to be iu attendance students
who had connections with city uewa
papers who might frequently have
made good "stories" out of the pro
fessor's lively coinmeiits on the poll

The classes were uow so large that
elsewhere than in flie classroom. Yet
the Wilson home became and always
remained resort hugely popular with
the young men xvlio were ao lucky as
to Ik- admitted to It and Its doors
weie hospitably hung. Professor Wil
son, iu short, stepped into the position
of first favorite alike with his col
leagues of the faculty and with the
nndergratK Tbey have at Princeton
a way of voting at the end of each
year for all possible sorts of "popular
personages." For a manlier of years
Professor Wilson was voted the most
popular professor. He was able, he
was genial, he was active, a member
of the faculty committee on outdoor
sports and of the faculty committee
on discipline. Iu faculty meetings Mr.
Wilson soon became one of those most
attentively listened to.
During the twelve years. 1800 to
100.'. Mr. Wilson continued to fulfill at
Princeton the duties of professor of
jurisprudence nnd iolitlcs. They were
twelve years of steady yet pleasant
lalsir years of growth and of grow
ing influence both In the university
and in the country. Four new books
were added to the list signed by this
man who wrote history and politics
with so much literary charm "Divi
sion and Keimioii." An Old Master,"
"Mere Literature" and "George W ash
tngton." He xvas heard noxv In occa
sional addresses in many parts of the
land discussing public questions be
fore commercial. Industrial and pro
fessional IhmIIcs. The vigor of his
views on questions of the day. as well
as his readiness, grace and power on
the platform, gave him (dace among
the recognized leaders of national
thought. He had for a time continued
going down to Johns Hopkins, and
now he gave occasional lectures at the
New York l.axv school.
At the end or a decade in his chair
Mr. Wilson had attained, uaturallj
and with the good will of all. a posi
tion of unchallenged supremacy In th
university town ami of marked dls
Littctioii iii the country.
With such brief summary, this blog
raphy must dismiss n period the ex
ternal facts of which were of little
dramatic value, incommensurate alto
gether with their importance in the
development and strengthening of con
vlctiou and character which were to
have play in the time which we now
approach.
