3ELK EXPLANATORY.
The- following notices appear on tho
Chancellor's bulletin board:
"Attention of students is called to
tho fact that hereafter the regulations
of tho faculty requiring students who
have incurred deficiencies, conditions
kor failures, to legibler for these prece
dent to other studies, will bo enforced."
"Tho attention to unclassed students
is called to the regulation of the fac
ulty requiring them to maintain a
standing in their studies of eighty-llvo
per cent., or Its equivalent, In order to
remain in the university."
It is understood that tho following
letter was sent to order the Testaments

Tho class in English now numbers
251. Each student is expected to write
essays during the year, aggregating
7,200 words. If each student does the
required work 1,S28,000 words will be
heaped upon the English department.
Under present conditions this would
make enough "copy" for over H00 is
sues of the Hesperian or enough to fill
its columns for over 18 years. Consid
ering the quality will be nearly as bad,
the theme correctors have a dark pros
pect before them.
According to a late act of the Cali
fornia state school law, graduates of
tho California statu university who
have had a required amount of work in
the department of pedagogy, and who
have been recommended by tho faculty
of tho university, are granted certifi
cates to teach in the schools of the
state without further examination. A
provision of this act offers the same
privilege to tho students of other uni
versities tlu.t are deemed by tho state
board uf education to bo of equal rank
to the university of California. Nego
tiations are now pending with tho ex
ecutive, and the University of Nebraska
will probably soon bo on this list.

SOME COLLEGE STATISTICS.
The repot t of Dr. Harris, United
States Commissioner of Education, for
the school year ending November HO,
lSlKJ, presents an array of facts and fig
ures which are inteiestiug to every
one interested in the cause ot educa
tion. From it the following is culled:
There were 451 universities and col
leges in the United States; of these U10
were educational, showing an Increase
of :i per cent in this latter class of
schools. The total number of students
in these institutions was 1IU,0M, and
of instructors 10,247. A special chap
ter of the report is devoted to colleges
tor women alone, ot which there are a
surprising number. There were Mil
institutions of this kind, having 22,04'.)
students, with 2,1 14 instructors.
There were n,;siii,0U2 volumes in the
libraries of these institutions and their
equipment was valued at $l2B,72,e'01;
endowment funds, SltS.OHS.'uri. The
income of tho year was 517,071,550, mid
the benefactions during the year.
S0,715,Ut8.
JL.UV niuiiuwi ui 'iui,toiiinui uiuil
who graduated in lbiKl was as follows:
1,011 doctors, 2,852 dentists, ,:i)4 phar
macists, 0,770 lawyers and T.S'W min
isters of the Gospel.
These figures show that in tho mat
ter of education tho United States eas
ily leads the world. No other nation
has as many schools, colleges and uni
versities. It is to this fact, without a
doubt, that the rapid progress and the
present enviable position of our coun
try as the leader of tho world is due.
Considerable commotion has been
caused at Princeton on account of the
passage of the resolutions by the fac
ulty forbidding any student of that-ln-
stitution who has a condition in any
subject from going on trips with the
football team. As seven of the twelve
scheduled games are out of town, this
will prove a serious difficulty. By this
provision five of the present team, In
cluding every man back of the line,
will bo barred. Consequently there
will bo hard "boning" for a time to re
move the objections. University Cou
rier. At a meoting of the freshman class
Friday C. S. Follmer was installed as
president and responded with a short
but neat speech. Miss llushton was
elected to tho vacant office of his
torian. Considerable discussion arose
over tho proposed sopho -freshman re
ception. A committee was appointed
to look ovor tho ground and further
action postponed to a meeting to bo
called tho 18th.

very lively appearance. The univer

small space, but there are live times as
many buildings, bome of which are very
Imposing. 1 saw several Nebraska peo
ple there.
The ride from there to Detroit was
like that Into Chicago, very level and
smooth. Detroit Is a Hat, stragly city,
but some portions of It are well worth
visiting. Home of the finest streets In
the country are here. Belle Isle Is an
island In the Detroit river, and out of
it has been mude one of the most
beautiful and popular parks in the
world. Of course the first thing which
I did was to go down to the river and
look out of the United States into Cana
da. My intention had been to cross
hero and ride through Canuda to Ni
agara Falls. Hut I met with an unfor
seen obstnele in the form or the Drit

of war with Kngland 1 was forced to
capitulate and go around Lake Eric.
