centsT-he crowd was small, but
made up for this in enthusiasm
wliich was manifested continually
thruout.the evening,, extending even
to tho manner, in which thoy did Jus
tice to the monu.
After the last, course had been safe
ly disposed of ind the volumed .smoke
'began to roll upward, Dean Pound,
who presided in his timo-honored ca
pacity of tonstmastor, arose and sol
emnly announced that there would bo
no speech-mnking tonight. He de
clared that ho himself would do all tho
Talking, slmlily allowing tho other
speakers- to nunctuate his speech with
iWew remarks' here "and there.
The genial toastmaster spoke at
somo length on the football spirit, on
that element in tho game which brings
out'the fighting qualities of men and
arouses in thorn a determination to
OYorcome-r-no matter what tho obsta
cles or the odds. Reminding his hear
ers that the Duke of Wellington had
said that the battlo of Waterloo was
Von on the football fields of tho Eng-
llsh public schools, ho declared that it
was essentliaiy tno . rootuaii spirit
.which had gained the victory In tho
great 'struggles of history. A propos
of this,vlr. Pound j)load strondly or j
the preservation of the essential fea
tures "of the game as it Ms played to
day. You cannotrob football of these
"without depriving ft of. its fire and
strength and taking oti); of it that
JlgJUing snlrlt wliich gives tho gamo
its greatest value. Here Dean Pound
called on Professor Lees to make the.
first punctuation mark in his speech.
Dr. Lees, In a rcmarjcqbh; fine way,
told of his hopes for the future and
hs faith that tho worst of our troubles
lay boiiind us-. Neumann tad nau to

obstacles as had never before, bosot

now finds herself In a position to look

highest hopes.,
Ex-Captain Westover was to have
spoken on "ItecplleQtlons," but ns( tyo:
Was" riot1 prpsenV being' probably,; "as
Dr. Pound suggested, Immersed In do-!
riiestic bliss,, this subject, was given toi
Dr.;Bolton. - -..., .-
Tho goQd doctor- recounted some
most Interesting bits of ancient foot
ball history, telling of many a redout
able warrior of tho former days. Ho
declared football to bo" a game that
above all required rind brought but
manly dualities and that a man might
well 'he proud oP his football scars, for
it was better for a man to go" thru life
scarfed and oyon maimed than noybr
to have played -the game at, all.
Following this retrospect, Professor

and tackle when the. Dean was play-
Ing tag. While criticizing tho now
rules, lie admitted that at least thoy,.
had accomplished what tho President
and Congress together had failed to
(to had cheapened beef.
After the honored enthusiasts of tho
faculty had thus covored themselvos
with glory, the program was turned
over to tho warriors of tho gridiron.
First, Conch Fos'tor spoke, paying a
glowing tribute to Nebraska collogo
spirit, both on the part of the. student
body and tho football squad, and
thanking tho students, the faculty and
the people of Lincoln for tho manner
in which they had supported him ahd
given him the right hand of fellowship.
Assistant Coach Stuart followed with
a characteristic talk, In which ho em
phasized Ihe nevor quit spirit as tho
element of prime importance in foot
ball. The program was brought to a closo
by Cnntnin Mason, who responded to
th(i toa8t For tUe old Unl." Mr. Ma-
son said that 11 was with deep rogret
that he saw his four years Of- service
to the Unl come to a close. It was
hard for him to reconcile himself, lie
declared, to tho fact that ho was now
one of the has-been club, but that
whprevor he was" or whatovor he .did
his enthusiasm for football and for
Nebraska would ever grow stronger.
It had never come home to him what
true college spirit was, lip went on,
until after the Kansas defeat; it had
boeif easy enough to bo loyal thru viq
tory, but not until, one tasted the bit-.
! terest defeat could one come to know
what fortho old Unl" truly meant.
Tho banquet was brought to a closo
with tho usual tlrne-honorod coremony
of all joining hands and circling the
room to the tune of "U U U N I."

SADOLE HORSES.
Professor Taylor Addresses Farm
Students on This Subject.
Professor Taylor addressed tho stu
dents of. tho Stato Farm Monday after
noon "on tho, , subject of. "Saddle'
Horses." "The chief thomc bf this ad
dress was the deplorable effects of
the provalling (system of breeding ,folv
speed. The future Stock raisers of
Nebraska wore urged to breed for the
form of 'the horse, and to disregard
pedigrees. The quality of the horso
may be scon by examining him, not by
the length' or his recorded lineage
Tho ox am pie of the horses of the
Arabs was given, showing Unit tho
finest horses lh 'the world have no
pedigrees until western buyers come,
when fictitious ones are constructed.
America was shown to have had
but two real breeds of horses, tho
Morgan horse, which came from Ver
mont before tho Civil War, and tho
Denmark horso, commonly known as
tho Kentucky horse, coming from cen
tral Missouri.
In conclusion the students wore
urged to disregard the no-called stand
ard bred and Hamlltonlan horses.

PROFE8SOR C08TIQAN TALKS AT
CONVOCATION. ' .
Public Attention at Present Centered
Upon the Appointment of Mr,
Moody to the Bench,
ProfOHHof CnHJlirnn Iriivnhn
estlng talk at; Convocation yesterday
morning on the "Unltocl 8tates Si:
promo Court,"
Public attention, he said, has been
callcdtot slnco Henry Gi Brown, for
many yours district Judge of the Su
premo Court, liaseslgned because. of
falling oyosight, and Mooily has boon
nominated as his successor. The per-
sonnal is constantly changing and IN
desirable that the general public
should have tho facts called to thoir
attention.
Professor, Coatigan traced briefly tfio
liistqry of the Supremo Court and told
ot the need for popular support. Of
tho three branches of our goYcrnmoiit,
tho legislative, executive and Judicial,
least Is known of the Judicinl part,
which is porhaps tho most Important.
Tho Judiciary arose from necessity lr
early times. Under tha Articles of
Confederation, Congress "had the pow
er and appointed courts of apjical to
settle cases in which in war tinioves
sols were captured on the high seas.
All matters of. boundaries and contro
versies over land grants wore sub
mitted to Congress, it soon bocamb
necessary that tho Judiciary- bo separ
ate, and It was passod with llttlo bppo'
sition, arid 41 constitutional convention
was hold; Article It ol tho .United
States constitutiongives 0110 Supremo
Court, with loytor courts and Judges;
.but not providingxthV number of
Judges, Congress could vlmnoso re
strictions. In tho early Supremo.
Court there wore six Judges, one. chlof
Justice andv five associate Justices
Thore 'were twoHerms, onw beglnnlng
In "February, the other in August,
whereas now there Is only one term.
The first Supreme Court heid in Feb
ruary, 1790, with John Jay as chief
justice, had Very llttlo, business to
transact, the first- meeting did not
have oven a quorum. The Judges
woro very llttlo respected and arousod
much hatred ujmong the people, until
1801, when Marshall was 'appointed.
Ho was at the time Secreta'ry of
State for Adams, and continued to
hold that' omco after his appolntmont.
Over twonty national Judgeships wore
made and many now ofilces wore
created and filled. The Supreme Court
naturally became a political body as
well as judicial, although it refused to
intorforo -whoro political questions"
woro involved. Tho. result wa's tJiut
tho presidents appointed mombo'rs of
.. . .. . . .
moir own political parties, wnicn was
right and proper. President Harrison,
however, mado an exception to this
rule. But judges of tho Supreme
Court are not political partisans. But
Whether the judges may bo changed
nfwlll und'iho court tampered with
or not rests entirely upon 'the, people
of tho United States.
