THE HESPERIAN STUDENT.

Since tho ground has becomo frozen
wo miss tho continual click of tho croquet
mallet at tho dormitory.
Thcro havo been more visitors at tho
University this term thnn wo usually sec,
and they wcro all pretty well satisfied
with what they saw.
Can anyone inform ua what mado a
particular Prep take such a fancy to tho
words of a popular song Oh 1 Susie, I
hopo you'll never die?
As usual our ofllco presents a clean
appcaranco; whenever wo expect visitors
we brush up, and you know that it is now
tho closo of tho term.
Some of tho Regents do not liko to
have the books in tho library all marked
up with tho opinions of the readers, as
they think it defaces the books.
The daily evening paper of this city
showed a good deal of energy in sending
reporters to tho last meetings of both tho
literary societies, for tho term.
Those students who staid hero during
vacation had somo merry times sleigh,
riding, as wo had a snow tho last night of
tho term that was three or four inches
deep.
Quito a number of students have at
tended the Free Congregational Church
this term, to hear tho lectures of "W. E.
Copcland on the gods of Persia, Egpyt,
etc. They were very interesting.
Were tho Profs around when the stu.
dents aro discussing various topics in
German, surely none of them would say
that we cannot think German, as one of
the Profs desired his class to do a few
days ago.
Wo are pleased to have tho students
visit our ofllco, but would much prefer
that they would not read our copy or set
jip matter as it is rather unpleasant to
have our news told all around before our
paper is issued.
We wcro surprised on looking over tho
stock of goods kept by Jacobs Bros. &
Oakley, and at tho extreme low prices at
which they hold their goods, and think it
fwill pay every one to give them a call be
ore purchasing. (tf.)
Tho lecture of B. F. Taylor lias been
put off until somo timo next torm; wo be.
liovo that it is until February. Tho stu
dents should endeavor to be present at
this lecture as he has a very good reputa
tion as a lecturer.
Those students who love good things
to eat were in thcro glory during tho last
days of school, as the tables of their land
ladies wcro heaped with choice edibles.
Surely that is a temptation to return to
your old boarding house.
There is some talk of having singing
in the chapel next term. Wo hope it will
be so, as it will add much more interest
to chapel, and among the young ladies wo
have seme very good singers. It is
possiblo, there will bo a regular class in
singing next torm.
During tho last days of this term,
somo of tho students wcro bent on seeing
uomo of the sights around town, and we
heard that somo went down to the Pcni.
tentiary. Remember boys that tho Luna
tic Asylum is very closo to the prison. "A
word to tho wise is sufficient."
There is a certain Fresh horo, that
seoms to be picked on by all his friends.
A few evenings ago ho was calling on a
young lady when ono of his friends
called him out, telling him ho desired to
ace him, ho told tho young lady that ho
would bo back in a few minutes j sho
waited an hour or so, but no Freshman
returned. Ho was locked up in a room
where his friends'; were using him as a
target on which to practlcc-tho manly art
of boxing.
Tho old students were very much
pleased to watch tho anxious faces of tho
now students, when tho classes were rend
out in chapel on tho last day of school.
It is not tho most pleasant thing in tho
world to hear the Chancellor say "AH
passed, except ".
Ono of tho Sophs was heard singing
"A rare old plant is the ivy green " when
he was interrupted by his companion who
remarked, "Ivy is like woman the closer
it clings to you the more you aro ruined."
It is almost needless to add that tho latter
student had in ids pocket a "previous en
gagement" from one of our fair students.
The comical "Eli Perkins" did not
arrive in Lincoln until after tho term had
closed, so many missed his Saratoga lec
ture. When ho was at Nebraska City it
was a conundrum whether ho should ad.
dress his audience from tho Iowa side or
not, as the river was full of ice; tho peo
ple in Iowa wouldn't let him speak there
and so ho camo across.
Mr. Manning, whoso advertisement
appears in this issuo of our paper, wo
cheerfully recommend to any of tho stu
dents, who may have any painting to do.
Ho is a first class workman, and we feel
justified in saying that his work always
gives satisfaction, and he is just tho per.
sou the students want to employ if they
have any painting in their society halls,
that they wish to have done in tho best of
style.
Our Fresh has again mado himself
conspicuous, and again a young lady is
connected with the transaction. Tlo had
engaged the company of a young lady to
go to church on Sunday evening, and his
friends induced him to go into a claim's
room a few minutes before church. Poor
boyl Ho soon found himself locked in,
and the key broken off in the door; how
ever, wo saw him come into church a
short timo after it had commenced, hav
ing escaped from his prison by some
means unknown to his nearest friend.
At the closo of tho term tho Regents
hold a meeting and the following mem
bers of tho Board answered to their names :
Col. C. S. Chase, Col. J. W. Savage, J. B.
Maxwell, Uriah Brunei", F. II. Longloy,
W. D. Scott, Wm. Adair, Chancellor A. R.
Benton, Gov. Furnas, J. M. MoKonzio,
.Tno. L. McConnoll, Treasurer, and II. T.
Davis, Secretary. As Regent Dungan had
left the State, he sent in his resignation,
which was accepted. Chancellor Benton
made a motion that, hereafter all funds
derived as matriculation fees from students
in the Agricultural College bo expended
for tho purchase of books for a library
for tho Agricultural Farm, which was car
ried. A vote of thanks was tendered tho
citizens of Lincoln for tho planting of
two rows of trees around tho campus at
their own expense. At tho second meet
ing a number of reports wcro mado, and
the timo was principally taken up with
tho discussion of the Agricultural Farm.
Tho following resolution was offered by
Regent Scott and adopted: That it shall
bo required of all students graduating in
tho Agricultural Department of tho Uni
versity, that they shall havo a practical
knowledge of agriculture.
