DISCUSSED BY THE GRADUATE CLUB lfilercstin Papers Presented at Saturday EvcnlBg'S Session. The graduate clUb toot at the Col lego club settlement house, on 20th and N streets, Saturday night, and enjoyed ah extra good programme. The Inter esting features were two papers by t)r. Kuhlraann and C. W. Wallace oil "Lamprecht's Historical Method," and "The Rhodes Scholarships." Mrs. Chas. Hagchow played a selection from, Strauss, which was well xocoived. Af ter the programme was completed, the entire club sang college songs and en tered Into considerable old time enthu siasm. Dr. Kuhlmanh, in his discussion of Ijimprecht's historical etftbd, Bald that it includes under history all sUch subjects as sociology and political sci ence, which Lamprecht considers the vfconBtant element in the Solution of fjocety. The establishment of Lam frecht's method practically and theo retically denies the separation of siicfo subjects and places them all In the category with hlBtory. It is a common and a wrong idea that Lamprecht tries to establish metaphysical laws. He makes the same generalizations that historians Usually make1 df ail' tho so cial sciences, If Lamprecht is "to bo attacked at all It is riot Upon a wrong method, but nlontr the line of a oradtl- cal subdivision of labor The position of Lamprecht, represents the reaction of historians ' against the ' encroach mentof other social Bclerices, on the field of history. - ' In the absence of Mr Wallace, A. - E. Sliotaott read the1 paper tin the Rhodes scholarships. In substance, it was as1 foilow's: No will since; Caesar's 2ptolves mdrd interests and has tnbre Tar-reaching designs than that of Cecil Rhodes, It provides for the dlstrlpu tion of approximately 25,000,000 among the Teutbnlc nations in the form of scholarships at Oxford. t Each state of the union receives two of these scholarships, each of which amounts to a sum of $1,600 annually. The matter that haB been discussed most widely refers to the class of stu dents that will bo eligible and what will bo the methods of appointment. It is commonly supposed that univer sity students would recelvo those ap pointments, but evidently Mr. Rhodes' Intention was to draw from othor countries two hundred young men who would bo on an equality, in every way, with those students who enter Oxford from English institutions. The nuaii- flcatlons are scholarship, fondness for sport, manhood and moral force. Tho first and last points are determined by school authorities and count for a to tal of six-tenths. The remaining two points are determined by school fel Iowb and count for four-tenths. Tho final average shall bo passed upon by the trustees or some one appointed for the purpose. The fact that high schools do not us ually give a cburso in Greek practically shuts out high school students, for Greek is one of tho requirements for admission to Oxford. University stu dents are aa a rule barred by the pro vision that scholarships shall be granted only to those' under twenty one years of age. This seems to leave tho benefits of the will to the small colleges. Tho question thnt concerns us ia with reference to the effect the Cecil Rhodes scholarships will have on higher learning. What Influence will they have on our men who go to Ger many for advanced degrees? Will it call them to England? Will it take graduates" or undergraduates from our own institutions? These questions, and especially the last, were discussed by the graduate club. Ib Hill advanced the idea that students would go to Oxford from our universities in spite of the adverse pro visions of the will. He said that there are always a few students who make college before they have attained their majority and such wjll have bet ter preparation to meet the require ments than have students from either the small colleges or secondary schools. Such has been the cose In Canada - .f where scholarships to English instltu tlons are given. Np.85. WILSHIRE WANT8 DEBATE. Chancellor Andrews Latest One to Receive a Challenge. Although tho news has been known to tho town people for a week or bo that Chancellor Andrews' recent ad dress on Socialism had brought him a challongo to debate from tho over ready 'millionaire socialist," H. Gay lord Wilshire, University students may still find the following letter of readablo Interest. It Is addressed to tho chancellor, and was printed in a recent number of tho Nebraska Inde pendent: NeW York, Jan. 29, 1903. Chancellor E. Benjamin Andrews, Ne braska University, Lincoln, Neb. Dear Sir: I have read with interest your address on socialism delivered be fore the state bar association of Ne braska on January 9. As you have misrepresented the socialist nnauinn so completely I think It Is only fair for you to meet me or some other Bd clallBt on tho public platform and de fend your arraignment of Socialism, which I contond Is based upon a fal lacy. I will agree to go from New York to Nebraska at my own expense, hire any ball yoU may think suitable and pay all the expenses connected with the debate, If you will agree to meet me any tifate within the next two months, t shall be lndobted to you If you will wire your answer upon re ceipt of this. Faithfully yours. H. GAYLORD WILSHIRE. ' Chancellor Andrews does not expect to avail himself of tho opportunity for public discussion, and remarks that aside from some little modification of his outline of tho Marxian theory he thinks the address referred to will do for a fair expression of his views Upon the subject of socialism. Johnson, secretary; senator. L. H. McKllllp, Tho Boniors also dlscussfcu athletics for tho spring season and decided to put a baseball team Iw the field. A manager will bo chosen this weok, and will soon bo ready to give or ro colve challenges from any baseball team In tho University. Some games will also bo scheduled with teams from other schools.
