Tliero rc sovonty-five Cadet enrolled in the military department. Chancellor Fair Held says the number of new students this remoter roaehos 100, notwithstanding the lacl that the now Baptist Seminary at Globon and the Moth sodisl Seminary at York have drawn away nrc of the Prep uutory students. The registration is much larger than it was this time last year. Tim SiicIcttcN, The PaJladian literary society common cos the year admirably. Its membership, is huge and it has an excellent set of ,ili cars. On the evening of the Kith their hall w.is festooned with black crape, caught up by white bows, and in t.'io cen tor hung pictures of tho martyred pros, idiiits, Lincoln and Gnrlleld, and tho ux ei rises were largely memorial. President Da ih surrendered tho chair to President Wheeler who made a low sound remarks on assuming his duties. Misses Cora Dooliulo and Abbie Williams recited, Mr. II. W. Olmstead read an original poem, and Mr. C. C. Chnso pronounced a oul--gy on the martyred Garfield, "Tho les sons of his life and death." Mr. Mnrah acted as critic. The audience was largo ai.U appreciative. Friday evening the Union society of tho University gave their first entertainment of this school year, which was very inter csting. The hall was filled with students and visitors from tho city. Miss Place furnished the instrumental and Mrs. Hob matin the vocal music. After recess a number of names were proposed for membership Mr. Buir was elected pies. ident to fill the- vacancy caused by Miss Jessie Parker's resignation, on account of her uon-uttendnnco at the Univcisity liis term. Since tho above was sent in the two vollogc societies have had second regular meetings at which the hi lei est shown in the evening's classes was very marked and very gratifying. Tito dobatos this season are to he especially worked up and made of general interest by throwing them open to the audience. In tho Pal Indian hall the chairs are to be moved closer to the stage, thus bii'nglng the and ience within the speaker's grasp, so to apeak As to holding the exercises Sat urday evening tho Unions are quite unan imous to the contrary and tho Palladians divided on the question, having an amend, meat to their constitution pending. On this they will vote at then- next meeting, which is, by way, on next Saturday eve niug as a trial of tho scheme. .Tho Dormitory. t The Local dropped in at tho Dormitory the other day and was shown over the ren ovated building by the now matron, Mrs. Peck ham. As young gentlemen have been taken as lodgers their halls have been partitioned off from the others and tho whole building is now solidly divided in this way, Mie young men entering at an cast door and having their own slaiiway. The Dormitory, a most useful appendage to the University, has been mismanaged heretofore and has lost popularity, but it is to be hoped that under the new arrange ments and with bettor faru its register may 'be greatly increased this winter.
