Wo don't wish to discourage our democratic friends,
but I he crowd collected to rejoicoovprthc election Satur
day night last, was with out exception the "toughest" one
thai the city ever saw in her streets.
During the past two weeks political excitment hns run
so high Hint studying with ninny has been a secondary
matter, but there is one redeeming feature, whnl is lost in
the discipline of the mind is gained in the discipline of
tho inferior maxilary.
Students sometimes bet queer things on election.
Some wager oysters, some hals, others class standing nnd
best girls, but when man bets all his fruit and dessert for
a week at his place of eating, we can sen nothing but the
workings of ihe inscrutable proverb, "sauce for gooso, is
sauco for gnnder."
The now illu3lrated edition of Webster's dictionary,
containing three thousand engravings, is tho beat book for
everybody that tho press hns produced In tho present cen
tury, and should bo regarded as indispensable to the well,
regulated home, reading-room, library, and place of business.-
-Golden Era.
The manner in which the democratic fireworks "went
up" Satuiday evening Ib tnken by some as an omen of the
future of that now jubilant pnrty. Certain it is that they
aro now performing tho Hi st part' of tho predicted pro
gram booming; but how about the remainder of tho pro
gram augured ?
One of our youths had a practical joko played on him
the other evening at one of the literary societies; he re
ceived a telephone message that some of the folks of tho
indy he had in attendance were sick. They at once took
their departure for her homo and found every thingqulet.
; he youth is laying for tho person who sent the message
nnd is hound to have revengo If it takes all winler.
The Freshman class at their regular monthly meeting
met at Miss Mauley's. Afler spending a very pleasant
ovoning tho meeting wns cnlled to oidei by tho president
Tho committco on motto reported but tho motto was not
decided upon. Thoy will ngain liavo to ponder over the
buck leaves of Webster's dictionaiy and aro determined
to do a good job. The class then tendered n vote of
thanks to Miss Manlcy and adjourncl.
At last tho child is born. On Saturday, tho eighth, a
body of thirty-live students met in Miss Smith's room
and organized the Philodicean literary society of the Uni
versity. It lias for its molto Nulla vestigia retrorsum and
will probably justify this selection in its future existence.
Its component parts are the members of the fraternities
and those who tho't them right in tho political wai lately
wnged in our University. Thus tho matter has settled
ilsolf.
Tho Cndots took lime by tho "fetlock" last week and
paraded the streets with reversed arms and tho worst
dirge tho band could murder, on hearing that Cleveland
was our next president. They then showed their elas
ticity of conscience by coming back past the democratic
bulletin board with quick step and lively music and pre
sented arms to Cleveland and Reform. They may have
been premature. If so the whole school promises to
parade tho streets and yell for Blaine till the bovine brutes
return to their wonted habitations.
The Chancellor has been making arrangements for
sometime to have a course of lectures delivered in tho
chapel. These are to take place once a week and como
after chapel. The first one was delivered by Dr. Dio
Lewis, November 12. A largo number of citizens came
to hear the lecture and the chapel was crowded to over
flowing. The Dr. is a good .speaker and kept the audl
cuco laughing most of tho lime by slating facts. Ho
conveyed more in many of his actions than could bo ex
pressed by words and impressed it more upon the minds
of his hearers. Any persons who are round shouldered
without making nn effort to straighten themselves after
seeing tho Dr. walk up and down the platform in his dif
ferent positions, will show a lack of energy. One of tho
most interesting features ot the lecture was tho calling up
by ihe Dr of three young gentlemen and three young
ladies who were put through a course of gymnastic exer
cises to the enjoyment of the audience and embarrass
ment of the actors. The lecture was very interesting
from beginning to end and it is hoped the Chancellor
will meet with success in this new enterprise.
By many it is thought tho University Cadets took a bad
stop when they paraded Ihe streets playing a funeral
march over tho death of Blaine before they know whether
tho breath wns out of his body or not. Somebody must
have played sharp and got tho boys into it before they
realized what they were doing. It put us in mind, of an
incident that took placo some years ago. .noofour
neighbors had a boy who was half wit ted; ho also had a
largo hog in a lot close to the house. Well, Jack fed tho
hog com till he was so tamo he could get on his back but
ho could not, by any means, pursuade him to move. All
at once a brilliant idea struck Jack; ho dismounted, cut
a stick about six feet long, stuck an oar of corn on tho
end, mouuted and held the ear of corn just in front of tho
hog's nose; tho hog made for it and Jack steered him
