Editorial Remarks
Last Sunday President Eliot of Har
vard reached his seventieth year, and
was given one of the most momentous
and touching acknowledgements ever
accorded to a man of letters in this
country. He hafe been president of
Harvard for thlrty-flvo yearB, and has
seen the passing of his first graduates
from young manhood to age. He was ac
corded a reception by the faculty, which
was, however, greatly surpassed by the
one given him by the students. They
gave him a rousing reception at Har
vard Union, at which they presented a
letter with .ten thousand signatures,
the whole being in album form. This
letter was one of congratulation and Is
one of the most remarkable documents
of its kind ever conceived. It was the
embodiment of the affection and re
gard of a multitude of graduates, upon
whose lives this great man has left his
impress. It was aimed to get the signa
ture of every Harvard man in the coun
try. President Roosevelt was chair
man of tho committee that arranged
-the whole affair. The different facul
ties of Harvard presented loving cups
and most of the college presidents of
the country sent messages of congrat
ulation. O
The Institute of Technology at Pitts
burg has decided to accept a gift of
$5,000,000 from- Andrew Carnegie and
the officials aro glad to announce that
more is In view. And yet they aro so
bold as to bellevje that there is still
some light ahead for their institution,
in spite of the prophecies mode con
cerning the acceptance of a gift tend
ered on a similar principle to our Uni
versity. Tho Y. M: C. A. of the University of
Virginia has accepted $40,000 for a
building from Mrs. Wm. E. Dodge, the
widow of tho lato New York milllon.
aire, on condition that the friends of
the University raise $20,000. California
has accepted a $500,000 auditorium from
Wm. R. Hearst, who Is credited with
being the father of yellow Journalism.
Yet California using the phraseology
of those who have opposed our Tem
ple Fund Is not apalled at the idea of
a monument to Immorality on her cam
pus, whon it is in such a shape that It
may be used for so many useful pur
poses. Harvard received $i,ouu,iMrt last i
year from Mr. Rockefeller for a med
ical school, and J. Plorpont Morgan du
plicated the gift.
And all these Institutions have been
allowed to suffer because no conscien
tlous newspapers have come forth to
steer thorn cear of the peril that Is
lurking In an indefinite somewhere,
ready to strangle them without re
straint or mercy. Whon we have a
chance to benefit we shoujd not be slow
about taking advantage of it; for if
many of our institutions had not ac-
rpptrd contributions from wealthy par
tlPH, thpy would be far short of their
ptPFcnt development and still be
struggling to put up with what equip
ment they had, while every depart
ment, bb Is the case here, would be
crying for means of expansion. Tim
high development of so many colleges
and Universities Is due very largely to
the fart that they have been favored
with large gifts. In fact all the great
eastern Institutions absolutely depend
upon the endowments and gifts that
ti.ey receive. Let us, here at Nebraska,
consider these facts well before w
close the door of opportunity that has
been opened to us.

When the girls' basket ball team
comes back from Minnesota, we hope
It will be In the flush of triumph over
tho defeat of their "Scandanavlan Sis
ters." Our team hasn't lost a game
since girls' basket ball was introduced
here in 189G. The team this year has
not fallen behind in its fine work, and
victories in the two games scheduled
would crown a record that few basket
ball teams anywhere can boast of.
Rev. Marsh at Ch.apel.
Rev. Marsh, of All Souls' church,
gave an interesting discourse to the
University people yesterday morning
on the subject of "Devotion of Modern
Thought." He said:
"The process of thinking is the samp
today as in times past, and it shall re
main the same, but the results of the
thought and the different ways of see
ing things of truth and life are con
stantly changing. Modern thought has
revolutionized and our conception ot
things is vastly different than in pre
ceding years. It Is said we have more
of the scientific and less of the poetic
interpretation, that the poetic vision
has been obstructed by the develop
ment of scientific thought and so with
it the devotion or the religious thought
has been destroyed. The devotion of
thought is the fragrance of the thought,
it is the richness and pureness of the
mind. That which comes In the spirit
and radiates from the spirit. Devotion
finds its expression in tho beautiful and
the highest expression is through the
language of the poet, who feels and pic
tures the beauties of tho soul, and por
trays the depths of human life."
And to show us that there were still
poets who utter devotion, he reau us
several short poems, in which were em
bodied both science and religion, one
of which was "Each in his own name."
an outline of the process of evolution
and development of worlds. He con
cluded by saying that the true spirit
of prayer was quickened by modern
thought. His talk was of a high na
ture, many now points of view being
presented fn a different light. His
voice was clear and distinct, and the
hearty applause that was given him
gave evidence of an appreciation.
It is the Intention or the manage
ment of the State Historical society, In
their overhauling and ro-arranglng of
furniture, to dispose of some of tho
Xcubhyhole's' that are frequejited dally
by languishing couples, who find tho
absence of daylight quite preferrablo,
also a glass plate will bo placed in dif
ferent corners of th room for them to
scratch their diamonds upon instead of
marring tho wood furniture as has been
done heretofore.
