Tho body of St. Paul's church was croNVded with a most attentive audience Sunday afternoon nt 3 o'clock to listen to tho address before tho united Christian associations of tho state uni versity. The preliminary exorcises con sisted of some good singing by a choir gotten up for tho occasion. Prof. L. A Sherman, dean of the academic college of the state unlvor Blty, made the address, which Nvas upon the subject of "College Christianity." Ho spoke for nearly an hour and was given the undivided attention of all present. He took as his text tho portion of tho New Testament that relates tho sending out by Christ of tho "other seventy" disciples nnd likened college students who were striving to do some thing for tho upbuilding of humanity to those seventy who wont out among the common people nnd did what they could, unknoNvn and unremembered. lie advocated a stahvart Christianity, one that helped a man or woman up, without preaching. He cited a number of ensos wherein ho had known people who bad shown the highest sort of Ood life, who bad never made much of a pretension to "cburchlanity," but bad, without preaching, helped their felloNV men to higher things. Ho paid a gloNVlng tribute to Phillips llrooks, whom 'he classed as one of the "twelve" rather than one of the "sev enty." He said that as a suggestion be would offer the thought that a college as sociation could be of Inestimable benefit by circulating good books among the masses of the people. He referred to "The Pontile Prior Push" as a book that would have the best religious Influ ence of any book wiltten for a good mnny years, and was of the opinion that If the college associations would start a circulating library with 500 of those hooks In It that tho good that could be accomplished Nvould be almost incal culable. He was not In sympathy with the people who, when they do a kind act to any one do It in away that would lead the recipient to feel that ho was inferior to tho giver. lie deplored the prayer meeting sort of Christianity that did nothing but pray for people Instead of getting out to work for them. Ills talk abounded with Instances that came under bis personal observation Nvbeio young people bad come to col lege with a great deal of "pietism," com ing as they did from provincial, narrow streets where the world looked small and whole the church splro had seemed to touch tho skies, but after they had reached the college with Its widening Influence had lost what little religion they were possessed of and were ready to take up the propaganda of agnos ticism. He eulogised character. Her bert Spencer, he said, could bo stuaieu In the right way, and It would bring a man to believe in God, studied in the at I'nlon hall sovoral times before and must nhvays respond to an encore. Mr. Clapp's solo was tho best num ber of tho evening. Since his gleo club work tNVo years ago there have boon but few opportunities for hearing hlii strong bass. The ladles' quartet Hang with strength and precision. The Unions have Just closed a very successful year, and at the closo of tho muslcalo Friday evening ehoored with true barbatlan spirit.

DEALER IN The Unions of the university gave n muslcalo bofore a largo audience In their hall Friday evening. Although the heat Nvas extreme and tho program long, each num ber was greeted enthusiastically. A number of the unions have devoted a part of their tlmo during the past year to careful, conscientious training and tho excellent rendition of some of tho numbers Frlduy night gave their friends much pleasure. Other local talent assisted materially in enter taining. Particular mention should bo made of tho piano and violin duet by Professor Menzondorf nnd his brilliant little pupil, Miss Silence Dales. Pro fessor Menzondorf numbers many friends in tho Bocloty, gained both through his former acquaintance as in structor in tho university and his kind ly assistance Blnce. Miss Dales has pleased the audlenco A TOUCH OF FRATERNAL SPIRIT. A certain fraternity has effectually cured one of Its members of a very bad habit, namely, the uncontrollable de sire to throNV the wash water out of the window without first making sure that no unsuspecting citizen is passing. Remonstrations and throats did no good. The boys were about to give up in despair when a bright scheme was presented to them by which the unruly member could be subdued. Their chance came very soon. The careless youth stepped to tho window early one morning and threw out a bowl of water which was reported by the other boys to descend upon the head of a lady passing by. He was told to run and hide, as n policeman standing on tho other side had viewed the scone. Ac cepting the warning he hid himself where he could view and hear nil. Sure enough the blue-coat-and-brass-buttons man soon appeared and in a stern voice demanded the guilty per son. He said that none of those be fore him was the one who had thrown the Nvator. He kneNV he could recog nize him and went aNvay grumbling gruflly that "he would watch and Nvalt." White and tiemhling the poor boy came from his hiding place. All mem bers promised to help him If possible, but assured him that there was little hope. Prison colls, days and nights behind Iron bars nwnltlng his trial, was tho picture presented to his view. He assented to the plan of not vent uring outside the fraternity rooms un til tho trouble blow over. His meals were carried up to him and ho was kept busy dodging tho false reports that tho cop was coming. Late at night he retired, utterly worn out by the day's excitement. He had Just fallen asleep when he wns roughly shaken, and starting up he wiw one of the boys standing over him. He is wildly hauled out and told to hide, as the policeman Is in the next room. He looks wildly about. Tho window Is open. His only hope Is the lire escape. He climbs quickly out and hangs a small, white object In tho cold night air. The policeman makes bo thorough a search that the boy's grasp becomes weaker, until he fools as though he would fall. At last the policeman reports that his search has been In vain. Ho is about to depart, but he sees tho open window. He quickly advances. All escape Is impossible. The poor, Bhlv orlng wretch Is roughly pulled In and the hand cuffs fastened nbout bis wrists. Pleadings of the most piteous nature are used to melt the stern man of law. A weeping mother, a stern father, dis appointed brothers lind Bisters, all are pathetically represented as disgraced forever Bhould he be arrested. At laBt ho accepts the lads gener ous offer of sliver , iV A queer smile rests upon his face, and Nvlth a wink nt the other boys he puts tho money into his pocl'et, and after delivering a thrilling lecture on future conduct, he departs. The victim of this practical Joko still congratulates himself upon the easy manner In which 1io escaped the bread-and-Nvator diet of tho prison cell.
