Two years ngo a handful of enthusi
astic workers began the Initial move
ment of tho college settlement. Their
only resource wns an occasional con
tribution from the faculty and an earn
est desire to do something for the up
lifting of those who could apparently
be reached by no other means. With
but ?75 financial resource, and all that
contributed by the faculty they
brought I heir year's work to a success
ful close. At the beginning of the
next college year the control was taken
from them and placed in the hands of
a committee of students chosen by the
entire student body and a committee
from the faculty. Three changes of
location have been made since the
initial movement, necessitated by an
increasing demand for more room.
The present quarters re Inadequate
and more commodious ones should be
found.
In this, as in most other enterprises,
the great need is money. Last year
the contributions from various sources
amounted to 5145, of which CO per cent
was furnished by the p'.:dents. If the
work is to be carried on this year with
a hope of the same degree of improve
ment as in 9C-'97, this sum must be
considerably augmented. But If one
cannot aid the enterprise financially
he may extend a helping hand by do
nating books. Already quite a library
has been accumulated in this way and
it is hoped that the number of volumes
may be doubled this season. It is
operated on the circulating plan so it
may do the greatest good to the great
est number. The large numbers of
women and children who never were
familiar with the libraries of the city,
but who now patronize continually the
college settlement library, is conclu
sive proof that people are being
reached in this way who could be
touched in no other. There is still
another way iu which one may aid the
movement, that is by volunteering to
aid In instruction. So far there has
been no lack of material in thife in
spect, but no one has yet heard of the
committee being overstocked with in
structors. The advance that has al
ready been made indicates a decided
step toward practical humanitarian
ism. Whether one be a Christian, an
infidel or an agnostic, he cannot but
commend the movement. Support this
Institution by assisting iu one or all
of the three ways mentioned by donat
ing money, books or brains.
In the October issue of the Cosmo
politan will be found a statement from
the editor concerning the Cosmopol
itan University. Now that I'refcident
Andrews, for the time being, has re
turned to Drown University, Mr.
Walker of the Cofcmopolitan must find
another man as president of his "uni
versity for the masses. Of course the
board of directors selected by Presi
dent Andrews does not hold over. This
leaves the "university" in a some
what crippled condition, but with its
more than 5.000 enrolled studentB, no
doubt It will survive. An eastern pa
pei icores a point when it notes, that
under the laws of the state of New
York, such an organization aB Mr.
Walker has formed cannot be termed
a "university."
Two Congregational colleges in Ne
braska will probably be dlscjntiuued.
Their work is academic, while lhelr
currJf-ula is collegiate. This fact has
been recognized by the Educational
Society of that denomination, hence
the probability of the step. "If the
two," as the denominational paper
says, -'were combined to form one
academy it would deserve support."
Tho usual education afforded by tho
Bmall collego will not do.
Probably no man in tho Presbyterian
denomination could bo found hotter
suited for tho presidency of Lako For
rest University than Rev. J. G. K. Mc
Clure. His long pastorate in Lako
Forrest and his intimate acquaintance
with overy detail of tho university
rentier him particularly fitted for tho
position. For nearly two years sinco
Dr. Coulter's resignation tho univer
sity has boon without a presiding olli-
cer.
Tho right kind of collego presidents
aro not extremely plentiful. For somo
tlmo tho trustees of Obcrlln college
have been awaiting tho decisive word
from President Slocum of Colorado
college. Tuesday his letter declining
was read before tho board. Oborlln's
trouble docs not seem to bo In a scar
city of candidates. A committee was
appointed to "canvas the qualifica
tions of candidates."
COLLEGI3 NOTES.
The corporation of Brown univer
sity have a photographer to Btipply
views for their edification. They need
none from their president.

McKendree university, which con
ferred the degree of LL. D. upon Pres
ident McKinley, owes its corporate ex
istence to Abraham Lincoln. The
charter was written and Introduced
in the Illinois legislature by Mr. Lin
coln in 1854, and when put upon its
passage it went through by the cast
ing vote of Mr. Lincoln.
Iowa's football schedule is: Beloit

versity of Kansas, at Lawrence, Kan.,

at Iowa City November 6; University
of Missouri, at Iowa City November

vember 20; University of Nebraska, at

tober 23: With Y. M. C. A. of Des
Moines, Knox college, University of
Illinois, St. Mary's school of Kansas,
Decorah, and Upper Iowa university.
The Joint committee of the athletic
board of control of Northwestern last
night approved the following men.
who are candidates for positions on
Northwestern's football eleven: Mc
Cluskey, Morse, Arthur, Dunn, liv
ings, Libberton, Perry, Thorn, Hunter,
and Seiberts.
Northwestern's schedule is far from
complete, and Manager Haller is look
ing around for two or three big games
with other universities. October 9
Van Doozer's men will meet Beloit at
Rockford. October 23 is the day of the
Chicago game, and October 27 they
play Armour institute at Evanston.
October 20 they meet the College of
Physicians and Surgeons. November 3,
C, and 13 are open dates, and Thanks
giving day the annual game with Wis
conbin will occur.
Gilbert. Thoy can not bo replaced. It
is hardly to bo hoped, therefore, that
PonnBylvanla can defeat Harvard this
year. Thoy have no gamo this year
with vYalo ahd Princeton, as theso
aristocrats do not like tho "unneces
sary rough" playing of a few seasons
back.
Lovers of Lafayotto claim that theirs
was tho strongest team on tho grid
Iron last year, and that tl'ioy could de
feat Princeton this season. But tho
charges of professionalism hanging
over that Institution will prevent a
game with any of tho Big Four.
Tho University of Chicago team will
probably have last year's strength,
that Is, they may win two or three
games, or even more If placed IndoorB
where HcrBchbcrger can do fair goal
kicking. Northwestern's eleven will bo weak
ened. Van Doozcr and Potter, last
year's mainstays, are out this season.
Minnesota will probably have one
of the best western elevens this year.
Harrison is again captain. Harding
and Fulton will be out, but there aro
others to replace them In tho rush.
The training will bo principally In
rushing tactics, as the men behind tho
line nre only medium.
Wisconsin is out of luck. Seven of
their strongest men aro not to be In
school. Those who are to replaco
them must nearly all be neleeled from
the new Freshman class. So Wiscon
sin's outlook is gloomy.
Illinois has some stronc new men,
and will show greater strength than
in 9G.
Michigan's candidates arc mostly
new men, some of them, however,
have won reputations on high school
elevens. There Is material which can
be developed into a strong team for
some future year, but the outlook for
this season is only average.

FOOTBALL IN EAST AND MIDDLE
WEST.
Sunday's Chicago Times-Herald con
tains a writup of the football situa
tion in the east and middle wefct.
The Princeton, Yale, Pennsylvania,
and Cornell teams in the east, an J
Minnebota teams in the west, are al
ready hard at work; as are also the
candidates for places on such minor
teams as Lafayette, Brown, Dart
mouth. Williams, Northwestern and
others.
The Princeton team will be strong,
as all but four of its '90 men are still
in college. The' hold last year'
championship, at least so far as the
Big Four is concerned. For the vacan
cies such men as Holt, formerly of
Andover, and others, are candidates.
Yale's team, on the other hand, will
be handicapped from the start. But
three of the men who played in Jast
year's Princeton game are left, besides
Captain liogers. who Is slowly re
covering from typhoid fever. Their
chances for a winning team, then, aie
email.
As to Harvard, several of rheir old
men, besides a number of strong new
ones, will compete for positions. They
hope to defeat Yale.
Pennsylvania has lost three valu
able men Wharton, Woodruff, and
