"Nigger Heaven," tho modern slang designation of tho upper gallory of a playhouse, did not always belong to tho theatrical world. Dr. G. E. How ard yesterday mentioned tho deriva tion of the term in a lecture in which ho described tho old meeting Houses of colonial days. Incidentally it seems that the early comers to this country, despite their Puritanical ways were about as keen for slang phrasos as somo of their descend ants. In the old meeting houses there was always a gallery at tho, front of the church for tho poorer classes. -The pooplo 'of threo centuries ago wore firm beliovors In differences of class and tho wealthier classes wore not willing that thoy should worship on tho same level with their poorer neighbors. Accordingly tho gallory was built to accommodate tho mem hers of the community who were not at tho top of tho social and 'financial scalo. In tho larger churches thero was a second) gallery above the one for the poor. In this gallery all tho ne groes of tho community wore giyen placps, since It was felt that their casto was even lower than that of tho poor whites. From this arrangement in tho churches tho street gamins of a coupol of hundred years ago de rived the-torn! "nigger heaven." And from that it has descended to tho modern designation. DAHY, NEBRASKAN PROFESSOR BARBOUR IS BACK FROM EOROPE UNIVER8ITY MAN 'VISITS CITIES OF OLD WORLD. fINDS MANY INTERESTING THINOS Inspects Particularly the Park Sys tems of the European Cities In Hopes of Getting Ideas for Lincoln. ProfosBor ID. H. Burbour of tho de partment of geology and Charles H. Morrill of the state geological aBBocI ation returned Thursday from a nine weeks' tour of Europe. Before visit ing Europe, Professor Bessey and Mr. Morrill spent somo time In tho largo cities of this country and also visited somo of tho important cities of Can ada. On tho tour tho Nebraska travelers gathered somo Important information In regard to tho park system of tho citieB and countries they visited. This information thoy oxnect to nut tn n practical ubo in Lincoln. The parks of London which they vlBlted wore perhaps tho most beautiful of any city that they visited. These parks are of various slzo and are scattered through out the city. Professor Barbour and Mr. Morrill visited many of tho old world muso urns, and among them tho famous BritiBh museum. While visiting tho museums they arranged for the ex change of many specimens from the university museum, and in this way secured many specimens that thoy Arrivals in New Shapes in STIFF HATS would hayo been unable to procure In any other way. Tho specimens thoy secured aro many that they would havo been unablo to purchaso from tho' European museums. Tho speci mens that thoy will exchange for thoso of European origin aro from the collection of geological specimens that Mr. Morrill has been collecting for tho past sixteen years. TIiub thoy were ablo to procure many raro Eu ropean fossils which they would have boon unablo to purchaso at any price. Shipments of these specimens are ox pected at any tlmo in tho near future, and upon their arrival they will bo placed In .the university museum where they will make a very interest ing and educating addition to the mu seum. Park Systems. More attention was paid to the park system In these European cities and many plans for tho Improvement of the city parks of Lincoln havo been discovered by Professor Barbour and Mr. Morrill on his tour of Europe. They found tho parks of Paris very beautiful indeed. Tho parks of this city were abundant with vogotation. This is true of all tho parks in the whole nation of France. Hanging vines form a largo part of tho vegeta tion of these cities and they grow so luxuriantly aB to havo a tropical ap pearance. Everywhere tho vegeta tion is kept trimmed with extreme care, so that the whole formB an ex tremely finished appeaarnce. In Switzerland. Visiting Switzerland, Professor Bar bour says that ho found it scrupulous ly clean. Throughout the whole na tion did the visitors scarcely find a single refuse pile out of place. Hero tho parka were found to bo trimmed with great perclslon and with a sci entific skill,' In Swtigerland as. well as in Ger many great attention was paid to the conservation of the- forests, and thoy fbund it highly possible that tho for ests' of these two countries would in the future bb groat factors In tho pro duction of the world's supply of the lumber trade. Porfesapr Barbour and Mr: Morrijl paid somo attention to the" various YOU MAY BE FIRST CLASS (Soeetp but you won't hear all the news unless you Take the "Rag" Subscribe Now AND GET THE FOOTBALL "DOPE FRESH EVERY DAY Basement Adm. Bystems of paving in vogue In these foreign countries and also to their system of cemetery improvements. Pictures of these systems -were taken and thoy oxpect to use them in the Improvement of tho systems of this lino in this city. Tho street systems in the European cities aro In many in stances very much different than those Invoguo In this country, and theso, coupled with tho things that they have inspected in the line of the im provements of the city parkB, will make suggestions for tho improve ments of this system in the city of Lincoln.
