The Coup d'Etat, published at Knox College, Illinois, is one of the best college monthlies in the west. Its literary contributions and editorial articles are above the average. The Acute Sophomore. The Acute Sophomore. He was onl - a sophomore but he had a large head. He was undergoing the agony of sophomorie love, and he pined for his adored one at home. All his "cuts" had been used, and he could see no way to fly to her side. Suddenly an idea siezed him from behind, and he, overpowering it, grasped it and hung on. The next day he knocked at the office door of the president of the faculty, and his eyes were filled with tears. In his hand he held a telegram, yellow and foreboding. This he gave to Prex who opened it and read: Hartford, Conn. Mr. E. J. B——, Amherst College, Amherst. Charles is not expected to live. Come home at once. The good hearted president spoke a few kindly words to the grief striken boy, and told him to remain away as long as necessary. The next day he sat with Alice on the sofa, and as he read in the paper of the execution of Charles Maxwell, who was hung for murder that morning, he knew that the dispatch had not lied. His sophomoric conscience was at ease, and Alice and he were happy. - Exc. The University Courier of January 18th, has an interesting explanation of Dr. O. W. Holmes' famous college poem, "The Boys." The names of the persons referred to are given in full—Pacific Pharos. The College Journal for February is well filled with clippings and editorials of no especial interest to anybody. The College Rambler claims that one of its articles has been rewritten and published in the Hesperus as original. The University of Michigan is lighted by electric lights. He was a senior, and as he fetched up at the bottom of those slippery steps he ejaculated: "Hell—(just then a professor came gliding around the corne(r)—is paved with good resolutions." The professor smiled blandly, went to his room and gave that senior ten. There is only one college paper published in England by undergraduates, and that is the Review published at Oxford. In the March Forum is an interesting article on "Advanced Education for Women" by Miss Kate Stephens, a g graduate and formerly a professor of Greek at K. S. U. This Virginia University Magazine comes to our table filled with well written productions on live questions. It is a relief to turn to its pages from the long dry articles on "The ancient glories of Greece and Rome," which too often make the college publication a dreary waste. In striking contrast with the customs of to day, stands the following extract from the laws of Yale College, published in 1574: "Every Freshman is obliged to do any proper errand or message required of him by any one in an upper class, which if he refuses to do, he shall be punished." As singular are some of the regulations of Harvard college enforced a century ago: "No Freshman shall wear his hat in the college yard, except it rains, hails or snows, he be on horse-back, or hath both hands full. "No Freshman shall be saucy to his Senior, or speak to him with his hat on. "No Freshmen are to find the rest of the scholars with bats, ball and tow balls." - University Herald. "No Freshman shall intrude into his Senior's company. The University of Pennsylvania will build an Alumni Hall. The young ladies at the University of Illinois have adopted a uniform. The dress is of navy blue flannel, cut with blouse waist and full skirt. The blouse has a square collar on the corner of which the letters I. U.are embroidered. The Harvard, Glee and Banjo Clubs, at a concert for the crew in New York, netted $1,000. The University of Wisconsin has lately built a new scientific hall at an expense of $270,000. A French Scientist has calculated that Adam was 125 feet tall and Eve 118. No wonder they fell.—Eo. By a vote of the faculty, the editors of the Lehigh College papers are excused from the literary work in their courses which corresponds to the work they do on the papers. The college of Mexico is the oldest American college, being fifty years older than Harvard. bia, $156,000; Cornell, $40,000; Uni- versity of Minnesota, $34,000.— Colby Echo A New York paper is responsible for the statement that one of Amherst's professors uses no chair in the class room. He sits on the class. Gymnasiums at some of the leading colleges and universities cost as follows: Harvard; $110,000; Yale; $215,000; Perincton; $38,000; Column. The following fs from an article in the Free Lance, entitled "Fraternity, a case in college:" "As to depriving the student of precious moments, the practical instruction of association with congenial persons far over-balances the moments said to be lo-t. They are not lost, for the time a fraternity man spends in his chapter hall enlarges his social qualities and gives him a closer insight into the minds of men than could otherwise be acquired. I acknowledge that college fraternities create jealousy, but it is a jealousy that is met with between institutions of similar character. It is a rivalry for the lead. Statistics show that those colleges-rank among the highest where good secret fraternities exist in the greatest number." The Hesperian is agitating the question of its conversion into a monthly, and the establishment of a weekly devoted to local news. The move we think would be a good one. Palladium. Perhaps no society previous to Palladium in this University has ever done so well at first. Some try to discourage us because our members are not numbered by the hundred. But there is more harmony and energy in this organization than in some much older societies. We measure our strength not by numbers but by activity and progress.

Miller DEBATE—Resolved That Utah should be admitted as a State. A NIGHT OF MIRTH. "Corner Grocery" on hand for to- night. Don't miss the funniest play of the season to-night. It is a screaming howling comedy, with just enough plot to make it run smoothly. Read the following tribute to its laughter-producing abilities, from the St Louis Globe Democtat: "People laughed till they cried at the Standard last night. The upper part of the house was jammed, and the downstairs crowd was large. "The Corner Grocery," an uproarious comedy with an occasional touch of nature and a pathetic love episode underlying, was greeted with tremendous manifestations of approval. The leading role, *Duddy Nolan*, is portrayed by Mr. Griffin, and with the assistance of a pleasing company, an audience is regaled with a constant round of amuement. A very pretty picture of domestic life is presented in the play, and there is an appeal not only to the risibles, but the purer and nobler emotions, and little tender episodes check the laughter of the audience, and remind them that there is a serious side, even to the happiest and most mirtiful souls. "The Corner Grocery" is, of course, ridiculously funny, and it is all that has been represented—intensely amusing, absorbing in situation, and as clean in language as the most fastidious could require."
