II I Now on Kxhlbition In llm Art Rnom, Ono of the prominent features of the nrt exhibit ia the bust of Goethe's Maighorlta, which occupies a position directly within the entrance. The bust is of pure Carrara marble and Is the woik of the renowned sculptor, Anto 1M0 Fiilii, the work on' it having been done in the famous studio of that art ist in Florence. Italy. The statue was selected by Professoi Foster of the German .department last summer when he was In St. Louis and was received hero on New Year's day. The bust is the Kirt.'othe QerroAn department to, the university. Alter the exhibit It will be placed, for a time In Professor Foster's room and for a time In the general Horary, where It may be more public. Only through a reat deal of sacrifice was the German department able to make this gift to the univer sity. Funds that could, readily have been expended olsewhore were saved and thus this now addition to the artis tic wealth, of the unlvorsity was ob tained Taylor Commends. Pioteeior Taylor has informed hlb class in political economy 1 that it Ih the best class In this course he has ever hud. This remark was piomptcd "by the fact that the examination niarikg of this class ha;e been higher. on the average, tha,n ever before. Mlfcs Edith L. Webstei, who was con nected with the unlveisity's exhibit at the St. Loui3 exposition, has, at the order of the exposition commission, been raised from assistant In the edu cational exhibit tp that of assistant superintendent of the Nebiaska edu cational and mineral exhibits at the exposition. This was done because the commission recognized MUh Webster's "ionstant care and attintUm and ef ficient services." The usual Friday ielews In Dr. Sherman's Macbeth class base been discontinued and the timo Is being utilized In reading aiioiib authorita tne opinions on the play Macbeth Of these various opinions, the opinion of the members of the class are to be tormulated. Tho?e that chose the newly acquit ed .Mnigherlto could not hate done bet ter. From cold marble the aitlst Frllll has drawn forth a maiden of parsing simplicity. Eery detail is simple and the whole effect' is ono of slmpliclt3. When this Is said all Is said, yet not even a beginning has been made In describing Margherita. To be appreciated she miiBt be seen, not once, but many times, for shfTcan be underbtood'only by lose ncquaint .awo. Durhrg the holidays the tflumnl of Lincoln high school held a reunion party at Walsh hall. About 10 couples were present and the- .affair was one of the pleasantest enjoyed by high school people this year. A latgo pro portion of those present were people now In tho University.

With the presltrcntlal election only a month off, the political bosses of the Sophdmore class nro clearing their decks for action and the generals on both sides are lining up their men for active campaign work. There Is a cur rent rumor afloat that the machine that is now in power ha3 not exercised the proper diligence In safeguarding the interests of the clnss and has be come somewhat unfair in wielding the appointive scepter. How much tiuth io to be found in the rumor is un known, but all the same It has been productive of organizing a party of libcraliStB that have made a decima tion to fight fire with fire. Little groups of "Sophs." with their noodles together aio only the slightest evidence of the political storm that Is gathering on the horizon.

He explained our lack of apprecia tion of nrt and emphasized very hliongly that wo should give more at tention to it because it was a supple mental knowledgo for we get all oiit of the thing Itself. He explained how the work of the artiBt was to Interpret the beautiful. He also said that ait was not only found in these paintings, but that It was seen In naturo everywhere; that these were only tho reproductions.

A r' Now The basket ball nmn are pindlelng oery evening from five to six for tho tilp north the hint or this month. Manager Heors Is arranging games wllh teams botwoen hero and Minne apolis. Probably the firtit game played on the trip will bo with tho Omaha Y M. C. A. This should bo it good game, as the Omaha aggregation defeated Highland Pari; toam, which In turn de feated tho Nebraska team. But tho Nebraska toam will be playing much faster and better ball when they meet Omaha.' They had" prnctTc'c'a' but little together when thoy played the High land game. Hesldes this game and tho two with Minnesota, the manager will have two others, making five games played on the trip. A trip west is nlfo being arranged by the management, which will prob ably take place during or near tho Easter vacation. Tula will probably oxteud as far west as Cheyenne, play ing a team, in that city. The game with the Cheyenne "OinnU." has al ready been arranged and other gAmes with University of Colorado, Greeley and Colorado college will likely be ar ranged. Besides thse trlpa, other games will be playod around through the state and at home. The next time the Nebraska basket ball team appears In a game they wj'' hac on their now suits which hr f been lately purchased and will an today. They aro very similar to old ones, that U, the black pants black Jerseys with the scarlet ring the cioami"N" In tho center. Tr suits will add materially to the pearance of tho team on tho floor. Manager Allen of the baseball team has almost complete! his bascbnll schedule for this season's games. He has arrangod a trip in which the team will rlny with Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan and . iiinesotn universities. All of these games have boon pretty definitely settled with the exception of Minnesota, and this institution seems to be holding back from the fear that they will not be permitted to put a li:im In llii (lolil Dflinr I'nmAH will lw a-nauged to bo played in Uncoln.
