THE HESPERIAN
The law library is as yet very incomplete,
and in such a state it is likely to remain for
some time to come. When tho next appro
priation is made by tho legislature let us
hope that it will bo sufficient to greatly as
sist in purchasing a few needed books.
J. L. Stephens' place of business at Lin
coin Normal was entered by thieves one
night last week, tho safe blown open and
$300 or $00 in cash extracted. Those who
are familiar with the ups and downs of a
young lawyer's life can best sympathize
with him.
Law students are reading with interest
the press reports of the Durrant trial. The
assistant counsel for the defense, General
Dickinson, is indeed making a noble effort
in behalf of the accused man, but he seems
to be working against fate in having lost the
services of his leader, Mr. Deuprey, so early
in the case.
B. E. Hendricks has made application to
the supreme court for admission to the bar
subject to the examination by a commission
appointed by the court. He studied law
one year in Judge Davis' oflice at Blair,
was a Junior last year and commenced the
Senior work this year. His presence will
be greatly missed but all the boys will join
in a hearty wish for his success.

The faculty interfered in a free choice of
foot-ball manager by forcing two or three of
its number into the board mooting josterday
afternoon. Under such compulsion the
board elected Whipple, manager; Doc Ever
ett, aesistant; Hay ward, manager of the
base-ball team, and Andrews, assistant.
Space is lacking in this issue to express
our views on such faculty interference; but
you may expect something in next issue.
