Charter Day Address.
The annual address before tho So
ciety of tho Sigma XI haa como to be
regarded aB one or the most interest
ing and profitable features of the
Chartor day celebration at the Univer
sity. The executive committee fools
confident that the address this year
will not fall below the high standard
that has been maintained in tho past.
Whllo these lectures must . bo upon
some scientific topic, the subject is al
ways one of general Interest and is
treated in such a manner that it can
bo appreciated by any person of ayor
ago Intelligence.
The address this year will be given
by Prof. L. L. Dyche, of the University
of KansaB. The subject will be "The
Arctic Highlander." There is prob
ably no man In this country who is
bettor acquainted with the animals of
North America, or who knows more of
the conditions under which the people
live than Professor Dyche. Ho is not
only a scientific man of recognized
ability, but ho 1b also a famous hunter
of large gamo and has had many
thrlllng adventures. He has been all
over tho continent from Mexico to
Alaska and Greenland.
In 1895 he spent five months on the
Atlantic coaBt studying the country
and Its life, and collecting specimens
as far north as Cape Sabine, tho spot
made memorable by the starving of
most of the members of .ue ill-fated
Greeley Arctic expedition. On this
trln he secured hundrodR of vnlnnhlo
specimens, including Arctic hlrrfH. wnl-
ruBes, Beals, polar bears, reindeer,
narwhals, and a largo amount of eth
nological material from native Esqiil
mos illustrating the lifo history of
teso people.
The lecturo will be llltistrated with
fifty or more lantern slides made from
photographs taken by Professor Dyche
himself whllo on this trip to northern
Greenland, and will be giveh In tho
University chapel Saturday evening,
February 14, at 8 o'clock. There will
bo no admission fee, and everyono is
moBt cordially Invited to attend.
