The new members' quartette ,i feature hitherto necessarily omitted from new members' pro grams will render two selec tions 'in the new member' pro gram in Union hall this evening. The quartette deserves especial i redit in this new departure and on the whole prove themselves in keeping with Union enter prise. The repetition of the Students' Program was not exactly a glorious success. The per formance was even better than before, but the audience was de cidedly minus. Two hundred were the most generous esti- mates, and some put it as low as one hundred. Consequently the deficit in the Greek and Iiatin treasuries still exists intact. The joint debate between the U. B. D. C. and the Maxwell club on last Saturday evening was by far th best attended thus far in the series. The A. P. A. question was discussed from al most every possible standpoint. Two and a half hours of debate, interupted only by enthusiastic appluse, did not tire the audience in the least. The "platitudinous ponderosity" of intellect mani fested by the U. B. D. C. orators was ably offset by the inexhaust- able loquacious accumulation of the indomitable Maxwells. Funeral services were held over the body of Otis L. Dayton at the home of his parents at 3 o'clock last Friday afternoon. The funeral sermon was preached by the Rev. O. A. Williams of the First Baptist church. A guard of honor from B Com pany, of which the deceased was a member, escorted the remains to the depot. The interment was at Sheldon, Iowa, the former home of the family. The fol lowing resolutions were passed at a special meeting of the class of'oS: Wiikreas, It has been our Heavenly Father's will to re move from our midst our belov ed fellow-student and classmate, Otis Dayton ; and Whereas, The dass of '98 of the University of Nebraska has lost a faithful and promising member ; therefore be it Resolved by the class of '98, That we feel keenly the loss of a member so highly esteemed, and cherish memories of his truly noble character and earnest, studious disposition. 'Resolved That we extend to the bereaved family our sincere sympathy and commend them to God and the consolation ot His Holy Word. Furthermore be it Resolved That copies of these The Columbia: Standard Bicycle of the World, Rrncpfnl, light, ami strong, this product of the oldest bicycle establishment in America still retains its place at the hcncl.

Jordan, President of Leland Stanford University, pre dicts the following upon the future of educational progress: The tendency of the next centurv in higher education in America will be toward greater individualism and greater free dom. "Free should the scholar be, free and brave." It is true, as Von Hoist has said, that America has never yet had a university in the European sense of the term. In the next century America will still fail to have a universi tv in the European sense, but she will have not a few univer sities in the American sense. Her universities will be in no wise deficient in the fundament al matter of ideas of scholarship, nor will they lag behind in the work of original investigation. But they will be organized as American institutions for the training of Amcrcan men and women. They will be adapted , to their own functions. In their i evolution there will be no return ' to the worn out organization of the universities of Paris and Ox ford. Neither will our univer sities be transplanted products of German culture. The Ameri-; can university exists still in em- hrvn. hut it is an embryo of! J a . " splendid promise, me most pil ous possession 01 tne .njuucaii people. From its still unused potentialities there will come a nobler flower and fruitage than the world has yet seen. Some dav Europe will ask itself why it cannot have universities in the American sense of the term. First National Bank, LINCOLN, NEBRASKA. CAPITAL $400,000.00 SURPLUS 100,000.00 OFFICERS: N. S.
