STUDENTS IN KANSAS CITY.
A large number of ex-students of the University of Kansas gathered at Spaulding's Commercial College hall last night and had their affection for their alma mater revived by hearing addresses from Chancellor
Snow, Professor J. W. Green, of the law department, and from Professor A. S. Olin, of the Kansas City, Kas., schools, and Professor I. C. McNeil, of the Kansas City, Mo., schools.
There were present at the meeting a number of the former students from across the line. President Sullivan called the meeting to order and introduced Chancellor Snow, who had come down for the especial purpose of addressing the association in response to an invitation. The Chancellor was most heartily welcomed by the "boys and girls" who in former years had gathered weeds and insects under his direction. For there is in the history of the institution no ante-Snow period. Snow was there at all times since the University was first started. His address last night was along the line of the assistance possible to be rendered by such an association as that which had been started.
The coming of the University Glee Club on the evening of February 3 was discussed and the following committee appointed to see that they got a proper reception when they appeared at the Auditorium: Frank A Marshall, Campbell Watson, F E Reed, Ed Brown, P E Vestal, W A White, J D Wendorfl, Cyrus Crane, Alfred Fidler, J G Smith, A S Olin and CM Evans. The following committee was appointed to secure a roster of the ex students in Kansas City, Kas.: A S Olin, W J Morse, J B Harris, I F Bradley. The association then adjourned till the next meeting: February 1.—Kansas City Journal.
UNITY CLUB.
Unity Club was favored Wednesday night with an interesting paper by Prof. Robinson on the subject of St. Augustine. The great bishop of Hippo is one o'view figures in church history who have come down in something like flesh and blood. Augustine is, however, not merely alive and modern, even to the nineteenth century world. He is the man who has done more than any other to fix the intellectual beliefs of christendom.
Prof. Robinson traced with care the story of the "bad boy," the "bad youth" and the "bad young man," born in 354 on African soil, but of Roman parents, through the schools of his native town and of Carthage. He recounted his career, a teacher of rhetoric at Carthage, his brilliant success as an intellectual athlete, his miserable subjection as a man to sensual and degrading passions. But Augustine possessed a nature both sensitive and strenuous, a nature in which the bad and good
elements must sooner or later find themselves at war. The first impulse towards better living came from the reading of Cicero's Hortensius. From this perusal Augustine decided the passion for philosophic truth. This he sought for a time among the disciples of Mani. After severing his connection with the Manichian set, he removed to Rome, and from Rome, in answer to an invitation, he went to Milan, a teacher of rhetoric, ever foiled in his eager attempt at reaching the truth. "Tomorrow," he would say to himself, "I shall find it," but the morrow did not come. He began to tear he should die before reaching the secret at the center of things—and it is possible that his tear was not unfounded. But the time of his conversion was near at hand. The study of Plato had lead to that of St. Paul. Overwhelmed by a sense of guilt and shame, Augustine was weeping beneath a fig tree when he seemed to hear a voice calling "Take up and read." Then he opened the scriptures and was met by a text denouncing riotous living and calling on the sinner to "Put on the Lord Jesus Christ." Soon after he renounced his position as a teacher of rhetoric and was babuzed. Henceforward his eager zeal was given to the service of the church. He became presbyter and afterwards bishop of Hippo. As bishop his controversial activity was great. As was perhaps natural, his earliest attacks were directed against the Manichian heresy he had himself entertained. Next he encountered the Donatists, and gave countenance to theories with regard to governmental interference in religious matters which were wide teaching in their results. By decree of the emperor the errors of the Donatists were mad evident and punished. His most important controversy was with Pelagius, who controverted the doctrine of "Original Sin." Once more the truth as held by St. Augustine was vindicated by majority in an ecclesiastical council and the degree of the emperor. The doctrine of the church, that with Adam, the whole human race fell from grace was fixed in accordance with the position of Augustine.
Augustine wrote many books. Of these the most important ones are, the "City of God"—an inspired prophecy of the rise of the church take the place of the Roman empire then tottering to its fall—and his far-famed "Confessions."
He died at the age of 75, with the barbarian vandal at the gate of his beloved city. Fortunate, at least, that he did not live to see its downfall.
