The second and successful oration of the evening was by Howard H. Russell, of Oberlin, who will represent the State of Ohio in the interstate contest. The gentleman is of average height, with a firm and strong face, and a powerful voice and presence, forcible utterance and action, and an ease and individuality before an audience, gained by a large experience in public speaking. When this oration was announced Mr. Russell, with an air of confidence that almost amounted to boldness, ascended the steps to the rostrum, moved promptly to the front and began his address, "Ladies and gentlemen and fellow students." To use this "adult" form of address is unusual for orators who are not on the nether side of the sheep skin, and it has in a few instances been construed to indicate an air of too great boldness, and has even resulted in a prejudice against the speaker. Not so, however, with the gentleman who used it on this occasion. It was natural to him, and was in place. The subject of the oration, "Mob Law," was handled in rather a novel way. It represented two scenes. The first directed the attention to an educated socialist addressing an enraged and uproarous mob. The gentleman pictured it in an accurate and vivid manner, introducing many of the shallow arguments that are imposed upon the ignorant, while he kept the crazed rioters and the effect of the speaker's words upon them in view by occasional shouts of approval from individuals in the crowd before him. The speaker moulded the mad mob to his own will, until they rush forth with the determination to set fire to a certain factory of the city. But they have but made a single move toward this purpose when one of their own number, an ignorant laborer like them all, springs to the platform and checks them, succeeds in securing their attention, and in a plain, blunt speech exposes the follies and false motives of the speaker who had preceded him. This, with the lesson they teach, constitute the oration. The method of treatment was well conceived, and allowed its author to advert to the various phases of the question, the arguments or either side, in a peculiarly happy and foreable way. The many advantages that this striking mode of presenting the subject offered, were evidently well studied by Mr. Russell and well used. It might perhaps be a matter of criticism that the oration was the representation of others rather than an expression of the author himself, but these novel features so efficiently served the author's purpose, and he so forcibly presented the lesson taught by the scenes upon which his hearers had just looked, as to preclude, we believe, any adverse criticism at this point. We regret that we are unable to publish this winning oration, but it was the expressed desire and personal request of Mr. Russell that his oration should not appear in public print because he thought he would not have time before the interstate contest to write another oration or even change this one in any material respect. Mr. Russell's delivery was natural and forcible. An elocutionist might have said that his modulation was very imperfect, a fact that would have been painfully apparent had it not been for his impressive manner and striking treatment of a live subject. The popular verdict confirmed the decision of the judges in awarding this oration first place, and Ohio may hope for a creditable distinction in the contest with other states.—Voice. Marshall and Brown will both appear on the program at the Unity Club to-night. EXCHANEG. The Illini of February 8th notes several important changes that have been made in the revised Constitution of the Illinois Inter-Collegiate Oratorical Association. Among the changes, the principal ones are given: "The orators hereafter to be marked on the following basis—One-half on delivery, and one-fourth each on thought and composition. Formerly these three subjects entered equally into the system of marking, each counting one-third. The maximum limit has been made 1,800 words, while no minimum limit is given." My Heeler. My heeler. Who under my umbrella walks? Who of my vior loudly talks, While in my clothes he proudly stalks? My healer My heeler. Who borrows when I'm flush, from me, And owes it back when flush is he And I am broken totally? Who smokes my pipe? Who takes my books? Who prizes into my sacred nooks? Who through my bills and letters looks? My brother. Who says "Deah boy," when o' we meet, And takes my arm on the street? Oh, hear he comes, and I must treat My healer My heeler. Papa (soberly): "That was quite a monstrosity you had in the parlor last evening." Maud (nettled): "Indeed! That must depend on one's understanding of term 'monstrosity'" Papa (thoughtfully): "Well, two heads on one pair of shoulders, for example." Any one who has ever contemplated the look of abject regret curled up in the features of the man who can't waltz, while some more fortunate oak of humanity is whirling the wife of his bosom, dizzy, will not be at a loss to appreciate the truthfulness of the following observations: The man who can't do his hugging in unison with the billows of harmony and the rasping of a fiddle, is to be considered an object of pity wherever rythmic squeezing is fashionable. While a man with flexible legs and no brains to speak of is whirling around the room hugging the best looking girl he could secure, this unfortunate victim is sitting in a corner and looking on, with a quivering chill at the heart and a sad feeling in his bosom that can never be realized. He may have as much strength in his arms as Apollo with his coat off, but if he has not an education in his legs of the polite sort, he will have no chance to impede the breathing of any woman who prefers migratory squeezing to quiet comfort in a corner.
