Affair Thoroughly Enjoyed
by All.Strong List
of Toasts.
The Y. M. C. A. gave its annual ban
quet last night to the members of that
association In the university armory.
Notwithstanding the inclement
weather, a large and representative
crowd was present, plates for one hun
dred having been laid. The banquet
was pronounced by tHose present to
have been the most successful ode
which has been given for some time.
The fact that it was held In the armory
seemed to make it a still more univer
sity like affair than it would otherwise
have been.
About 7 o'clock the members seated
themselves to the long tables, which
had been tastily decorated and ar
ranged in the armory. The persons
present were a thoroughly representa
tive crowd of university people. The
banqueters were all in a happy mood,
singing together a number of familiar
songs and giving the university yell
at no distant intervals. The Y. M. C.
A. glee club favored the crowd with a
number of its best selections, which
wore well received.
A. Ross Hill as toastmaster called
for a number of toasts. Chancellor An
drews spoke on the "Relation of God to
Man jand the Secret of Future Success."
Secretary Bailey, of Omaha gave an
interesting talk on the place which
the association holds in the university.
The other speakers of the evening were
D. E. Thomas, H. B. Ward and J. D.
Ringer. All took up different phases
of the Y. M. C. A. and its relation to
the university.

C. O. WHEDON SPEAKS ON
ANARCHISM.
Chapel exercises Tuesday morning
were conducted by Rev. W. C. Wil
liams, after which Chancellor An
drews Introduced Hon. C. O. Whedon
of this city, who spoke on- "Needed
Anarchistic Legislation."
In introducing his subject Mr. Whe
don mentioned the fact that during re
cent years anarchists from all parts of
the world have takon advantage of pre
vailing circumstances and have made
a city of the United States their headr
quarters. Anarchy Is antipathetic, and
the opposite of all government on the
part of the state.
Mr. Whedon spent most of the short
time alloted him in discussing the
principles of the most prominent an
archists of the time. Right, they be
lieve to be the power of might, and
laws are not to be obeyed unless they
appeal to the anarchist in the way in
which he believes to be right.
THREE ISSUES
The Nebraskan announces that temporarily issues will be published
only three days In the week. This course is made necessary because of
lack of support on the part of advertisers, principally. The large firms,
whose patronage of college publications heretofore has been generous,
have this year been represented among tne advertisers either not at all or
very little. Tne subscription patronage has been, on the whole, good.
However, nearly one-half of those who have been receiving the paper reg
ularly have failed as yet to pay their subscription bills. These facts have
determined the board of directors upon the course here announced. It Is
possible that daily issues will be soon resumed. Such issues will be re
sumed as soon as tho support received from advertisers and subscribers
will justify It. For the present there will be Issues on Mondays, Wednes
days and Fridays. THE HESPERIAN PUBLISHING CO.

J. W. CRABTREE,
President.
GEO. L. TOWNE,
Secretary.
J. I. WYER,
T. J. HEWITT.
Anarchism is an egotistical right,
and help can only come to the masses
through egotlBm. It Is one of tho moqt
essential facts that the poor will al
ways wish to have more, and It is not
money that does the harm, but lack
of power to take It.
A prevailing system of anarchy, says
Mr. Whedon, means the complete abo
lition of classes. The liberty of man
consists in that he obeys the laws of
nature, and a change in our present
system of government could only end
in a civil war.
The anarchiBts of today do not op
pose organized society, but socloty as
now organized, and believe in (1) the
liberation of the producer, (2) tho free
dom Of. tVe government, and (3) libera
tion from religion. They act on the
principle of Do what pleases jrou, and
act as you think best.
Human experience, said Mr. Whedon,
teaches that those who commit crime
are those who have thrown off the
fetters of custom.
The hopeful side of the situation is
that moral degenerates are the excep
tion and not the rule. Under the
teachings of Christ humanity has ad
vanced. Everything belongs to all,
and anyone can take what he can.
PRACTICE IN DUST
Baseball Team Puts up Snappy Work, in
Spite of tho Bad Weather. Now
Man for tho Box Shows
Up Well.
In spite of the wind and dust which
prevailed yesterday afternoon, the
baseball mon put up a snappy and vig
orous practice. Under the direction of
Koohler, captain of the pcrubs, the, men
who meet at 1:30 wont through prac
tically the same practice that tho first
team undergoes.
Tho number of scrubs who practice
regularly has dwindled down to about
twenty, but there has been a great im
provement in their work during the
last few days. From prosent proBpocts
It is quite probablo that Captain Kooh
ler Will be able to put out a team that
A WEEK ONLY.
will prove a formidable antagonist to
the first team.
Another new man was added to the
first squad yesterday. Leatherby, a
pitcher of some reputation, will try
for honors In tho box. The practipo
yesterday gave him no opportunity to
show his ability, as the men did noth
ing but catch the ball.
Fifteen men now meet for regular
practice at 3:30. Hood did not shaw
up yesterday, but his place on third
was vory creditably filled by Bender.
There will be only two mqre days
of practice before the Easter holidays,
but active work will be again begun
next Tuesday.
