The stock of the STUDENTS JOURNAL company consists of an unlimited number of one dollar shares. Any student, any member of the faculty or any employee of the University may hold one, and only one, share. All shares are untransferable and revert to the company when the holder withdraws from school. Every stockholder receives his paper free of charge, and in return for this must renew his share by paying one dollar into the treasury of the company every two years. The officers of the company are an Editor-in-chief, a Local Editor, a Literary Editor, an Associate Literary Editor, two Business Managers, a Secretary and a Treasurer. The Editor-in-chief, Local Editor, Literary Editor and the Business Managers constitute the Executive Committee, which has general supervision over the paper, appoints all associate or sub-ed tors and outlines the general policy of the paper. It also has power to draw upon the Treasurer for money. The officers, except the Literary and Associate Literary Editors, are elected by majority vote of the stock holders present at the regular meetings held the first Tuesday after the 10th of January and May respectively. The Literary and Associate Literary Editors are appointed by the Faculty of the English Department of the University. They have charge of the Literary Department and have power to correct and supervise the English of the paper. The Business Managers, at the end of their term of office, receive all money accruing from subscriptions and advertisements above the expenses of publishing the paper. In order to take part in any meeting of the stock company a stockholder must have held his share at least five days. A quorum consists of a majority of the shareholders. No share can be voted by proxy. THE COLLEGE WORLD. Biddle University has received $10,000 as a bequest from the late Mrs. Laura Carter, of Geneva, New York.

[Continued from Second Page.] many centuries, being commonly found in Greek and Roman libraries for a considerable period after the Christian era. The appearance of these roils is too well known to need description, and it will be readily seen that their very form precluded the possibility of any great variety in the bindings; and accordingly, the history of book binding—us the term is now understood—cannot be said to have commenced until a new departure from the old methods of literature took place, which consisted of toiling instead of rolling the manu-cript. It is somewhat remarkable, that the Greek writings which remain to us from classic times, give us no details as to the bindings of books; although we are enabled to collect from Latin literature a very full account of almost the entire process by which the Roman binders did their work. Cicero himself, not to mention others, tells us that the bindings fashionable at his time were already of a very costly and sumptuous kind. Nor was the habit of collecting fine books in the old Roman days by any means confined to men of literary taste. We find Seneca inveighing against those who were mere collectors and for whom the bindings had a greater value than the contents; while Lucion wrote a treatise specially directed to the exposure of this common folly. It is uncertain at what period the place of the roll was first taken by the book in folded form. Eumenes II., king of Pergamus (197 B. C.), a city renowned for its library, is generally supposed to have at least made the new shape popular. Its invention has been attributed to him, but on insufficient grounds, as the idea was in all probability derived from the Roman palligaria, or table books, many of which have been found at Herculaneum; while the author of "The Art of Books" gives it as his opinion that the most ancient instance of books formed of separate pages will be found in the sacred books of Ceylon, which were composed of palm leaves connected by a silken string. With this folded form, whenever introduced, book binding, in the every day sense of the term, may be said to have commenced; for the two boards which were first used as the protecting covers for volumes so made up, being attached by thread to the body of the work, were, for all practical purposes, identical with the means now everywhere adopted by binders for the preservation of modern books. In the adornment of these old world covers we must look for the origin of artiste binding; and we accordingly find that, shortly after the introduction of this new fashion in the making up of books, the worker in gold, silver and copper began to be associated with the manufacturer of literary wares, and lent his aid toward the establishment and decoration of the outside coverings in which such literary products made their appearance. The earliest specimens of bindings in this folded form were probably the productions of the Eastern Roman dominions, or Byzantine empire; and the art of decorative binding which, we may assume, sprang into existence there, continued to be practiced with success for many centuries in the same locality, until in the process of time it came to be transplanted from the place of its birth to the western cities of Italy and Spain partly as the result of the visits of the Crusaders and others to the east, and partly by reason of the increased demand for models and examples of ornamental bindings which followed the invention of printing and the consequent multiplication of books to which that discovery led—London Quarterly Review.
