The dinners are served In table d'hote Btyle, at a fixed charge, wines and liquors helm? extra. In n College Kitchen. The kltchena of the college are anions the curiosities of Oxford. That of Christ church has been In existence since the days of Cardinal Wolsey, and In It hangs a great gridiron which was used by the cooks of the cardinal. In entering It you pass by the cathedral, which Is the chapel of th ' college. You go down utone steps Into th. basement, entering a great stonc-wallcd room, wllh a ceiling at least sixty ftv t Mgh. At one side of the room Is a fireplace large enough to roast an ox, before whlrh fowls and meals nre still r.asttd n apt. The fireplace Is so arranged that a dozen or morn Iror spits can be hung In front or It at one Urn.; and as many as sixty chick ens ran be thus roasted at once. In other parts of tho room there are large ranges, steamers big enough to cook two sacks of potatoes at a time and all the accompani ments of the kitchens of a large hotel. Twenty-two rooks are kept busy preparing meals for the students. They dress in white, with white raps, and have their chiefs and subordinates. Wht the Colleiie ll Km. All the conking for the .Ion students ol Christ Church college Is done In this kitchen and the kitchen accounts of the boys are kept here. The kitchen clerk has a day book and ledger He keeps to the rem what en.h student has and gives him a memorandum at the cli s of eneh week, al though payment Is not expected until the term following the one for which trie ac count Is rendered. As I went through the kitchen I stopped at the clerk's oftlce and looked at the ac counts. Food Is Riven at erst price and the chargia seem to me very moderate. The oidlnary bnakfast consists of fish or bacon and eggs. The student Is served with three boiled eggs and some bacon for ah-nit 2.' cents. He gets a luncheon of cold meats for a little more and his dinner In tho common banqueting hall costs him nhout 4.1 cents. I give you here the menu for Inst night's din- H;ike, Haddock.

Including the wine. Most of the students drink wine, beer or whisky wllh their ::;rals. The college. Itself furnihhes a variety of beer and a mild claret, but most men keep their own stock of wines and liquors. I asked some ques tions as to the drinking habile of the col leges and was told that the men as a rule are temperate, although now and then one ovirsteps his limit and becomes Intoxicated. Without a disturbance Is made, however, such a matter would not bo noticed. One of the most common forms of enter tainment In the college Is the giving of Inii' lii oim and wines. There were thirty luncheon parties last Sunday In Christ Church alone. At such luncheons all the delicacies of the season are provided, In cluding champagne and other liquors. The average kitchen expenses amount to 1. or $" a week. Many of the students are high 'Ivers and the expenses of a number of thoa at Christ Church range from $10 to $25 per week rach. I understand the students do not espe cially like the dinners In the banqueting halls Tliie hall in Christ Church college makes you think more of one of the aisles of a cathedral than a dining room. It hns beautiful windows of stained glass. Its walls are paneled In old English oak and Its rel'lng Is about fifty feet high. The room is l,r0 feet long and forty feet wide, nnd Its walls are hung wllh portraits of the iire.it men of the college. I noticed a fine portrait of Oladstone, of John Wesley, John Locke and of Lewis Carroll, the author of "Alice In Wonderland." among them. An other portrait was that of the Dr. Fell of whom you may remember the verse: "I do not like thee. Doctor Fell, The reason whv I cannot tell: Hut this one thing I know foil well, I do not like thee, pnetor Fell." There are alsn pi rtraits of King Kdward VII. who was a student of Christ Church of Cardinal Wolsey. who founded it, and of so mutiy others that It would require a column to mention them all. Fn mains Colleges. Leaving Christ Church I visited many of the other colleges. Each his its students who have made names in English litem ture. in llnance and lu other ways. Al Magdalen. Addis n went to school and th beautiful two-mile walk about the rei-rea Hon grounds behind It is known as "Addi son's Walk." In Pembroke college you may see the room which Samuel Johnson occupied and the desk rn which he wrote his dictionary. At New college, founded In 1379, Sydney Smith was educated, and In Rallol, Car. dlnal Manning. Pean Stanley and Mathew Arnold studied. Oriel college la especially Interesting Just now, because It was the one which Cecil Rhodes attended, and to which he has Just glten $.i00.noo for Im provement and repairs. Oriel was founded in K6. It had among its stmbnts Sir Waller Raleigh. Hlshcp Wtlberfone and Thomas Hughes, the man who wrote "Tom Hrown's School Pays nt Oxford." I might also upeak of Hrasi nrse college and others but they are all the same old and quaint filled with the famous litrrary ghosts o' Ihe past and the serious black-gownei'. mortarboard-halt' d prcf.s4crs nt-.d the gay young students of th ' ;ir sent. Iiidiril nnd Amerlenn Scholarships. It Is difficult to get an unprejudiced view of the Rhodes bequest and of the effect 1: will have upon Oxford. There are a large number if stud' r.ls nnl professors who d not welcome this form of the American In vasion. The m wspnpens of the country have preliy well disi ussed It and th r' seems to be a g neral fear that It will .-hake up the dry bones of the university, t" the disecmfi rt a f the easy-g( ing pi ;ib who now occupy it. At present about " students graduate from Oxford every year and of tbes three-fourths take honors. The honors are of different grades and it will be ptraiiEe if the Americans, pick d men as they will be do not get more than their propertiomto share. I believe that tho studtnts are really afraid of them and this thought U strengthened by the un pleasant things said about us and the Rhodes bequest In the several college mag azines. I have before me the chief period icals of this week: The "Isis" refers Insultingly to America, saying, among other things: "It must be confessed that to many Englishmen, and particularly Oxford men, the scheme Is un palatable to a degree." The editors laugh at the Idea of the American papers assert ing the hope that "no American w ill accept a dollar of Rhod adds: This seems mouth of the Am adopts the Horati honestly If you ran. but get If and who applies the principle no less thorouehl to his foot ball matches than to his stock Jobbing transactions." Further en the Isis suppo-ts the Ameri can character will be improved by an Eng lish educatl n. and that this improvemen' will be beneficial to us. but it alls "that It does not suppose lh" rubbing the angle off uncultivated Amerban youth was a matter of concern to Cecl' Rhodes, the em pire maker." I'rell Plfiln Tnlk. The Oxford P Int of View of this month has an article venturing that the foundation of the American scholarships may bo a mis take. It states that "the Americans an nally our friends very little more than th French cr th nermann." and goes on to say that "where all sentimental rant ha heen brush"! aside the friendship between America and England will be found to be what Arl tntle trms 'a watery friend ship,' " owing perhaps to Ihe intervening seas. It says that the Americans nre for i Ignrra and Intimates that they nr.- not a welcome as the flermans. The 'Varsity quotes a speech of P. I. Savory of St. John's college at Ihe I'nlcn Pebatlng society, the chief one of the uni versity. In which he says "the American scholar would have too much money and this hulking lout would set a bad example of extravagance." I might add other opinions, but I regard the most of them n mere froth nnd Bin prone to believe that the majority of the professors and students here are Inclined to bo fair, and that when the young Ameri rana do come thev will be fairly treated. It .Is to bo hoped that the best of our young men will be sent, and if so I have no fear whatever but that they will more thnn h id thilr own. FRANK C.
