COLLEGE NOTES.
The number of students in the University of Illinois has been advancing very fast. There are now about 1,600 students enrolled.
The Harvard-Princeton debate will be held in Princeton this year, on the evening of April 5.
The University of Cincinnati has again been presented with a gift of $60,000, this time by Mr. Asa Van Wormer, a retired merchant of Cincinnati. This sum is to be devoted to the erection of a fire-proof library building.
A new class of honorary fellowships has been created this year at Cornell University. Those holding the Ph.D. degree from any institution may obtain these fellowships, which carry no emolument, but allow free tuition, the use of the library, etc.
The University of North Carolina is now open to women.
The corner stone of the Gordon Memorial College was laid recently at Khartoum, Egypt. The college is wholly undenominational and the instruction will be conducted in the Arabic language.
A course of lectures is to be delivered at Cornell on the subject of railroads, by President Baldwin of the Long Island railroad.
Chicago has chosen the negative of the question to be debated with Michigan, which is "Admitting it to be constitutional, a federal graduated income tax is desirable." The debate will be held in Chicago on April 7.
The students of Cornell University have contributed about $600 for the support of the track team.
Yale has been presented with two valuable gifts, both rare historical manuscripts of unusual importance. One is the original manuscript of the notes and sermons of Rev. Timothy Edwards,father of Jonathan Edwards. It is dated 1719.
Wisconsin is talking of starting a training table for the girls basket ball team.
Professor Edmund J. James, of the University of Chicago, has been offered the presidency of the University of Cincinnati. -Oberlin Review.
The board of control of John Hopkins has decided to extend the usefulness of the University by offering systematic courses of twenty lectures each, designed especially for the benefit of public school teachers. Only two departments enter the work this year, in order that the plan may be tested, and if it proves satisfactory, other departments will offer courses with the same purpose in view.
By the will of the late David A. Wells, Harvard and Williams are each to receive a fund, the interest of which should amount to $500 annually. The students to receive it must be a member of the Senior class, and the best essay on an economic subject is to be the standard upon which the fund is awarded. This prize is as large as Harvard University now offers. Unlike a scholarship, it is contingent on merit, and no charity plea will be allowed to affect the awarding of the money.
By a recent vote of the corporation of Harvard University, $100,000 has been added to the library fund. Owing to the decline in the income of the library books, many needed books could not always be bought and accordingly a petition was sent to the corporation asking for an increase in the fund.
Dr.Ira Remsen, head professor of chemistry in the John Hopkins University, will be the next commencement orator at Colby. The interest; of the approaching commencement will center about the fine, new chemical laboratories now in process of completion.
Cornell appears to have been overlooked by Harvard and Yale in their rowing plans. The latter two colleges went ahead and arranged for a regatta at New London without consulting Cornell. Cornell was then asked to join them in a race there, but declined, so that there will be one held at a convenient place in which Columbia, Cornell, Wisconsin and other schools will participate.
A new 'Varsity record for the running high jump was established at the University of Chicago indoor track meet. L. Byrne, a graduate student at the University, who was a member of the University of Illinois track team last season, accomplished the feat, clearing the bar five feet seven inches on the gymnasium floor. The jump is one inch higher than the best previous record, outdoor as well as indoor, at the University. Walter Schmahl equaled the former record, jumping second to the Illinois man at five feet, six inches.

Dear Father—Once you said, "My son,
To manhood you have grown!
Make others trust you, trust yourself,
and learn to stand alone.
'Now, Father, soon I graduate,
And those who long have shown
How well they trust me, want their pay.
And I can stand alone." —Ex
Paper cut to any size and sold by the pound at J. S. Boughton's under City Library.
The Philadelphia Record says that the appearance of George W. Cable was the "most important literary event of the season. A favorable place in nearly all Mr. Cable's programs is occupied by a Creole song. His sympathetic adaptability is marvelous, and the musical quality of his ringing voice is in perfect accord with his mental flexibility. The music and feeling in the songs themselves, so far as we might venture to classify things so rare and strange seemed to be a curiously-mingled medley of French troubadour grace and wild, African fervor, illusion-producing, haunting, evanescent, yet unforgettable. They made one for the moment forget one was in prosaic Boston."—The Boston Transcript. Monday evening, February 6, at Methodist church.

"Mandy," said Farmer Corntussel, who had been reading the back pages of a magazine, "of a cannon ball gain at the rate of 60 miles an hour was shot from the back of a train go 60 miles an hour, where would the cannon ball light?"
Mother—I gave each of you boys an orange. Charlie, you said you wouldn't eat yours until after dinner. You and Jack, said the same. Have you deceived me?
A high army officer whose fad was ventilation was one day making an inspection of a frontier post which was much in need of repair. In some places the roof showed the blue sky overhead and the walls were ornamented with gaps.
Too Much of It.

The brigadier general was escorted through the building by the colonel in charge, a sergeant going on before, as is the custom, to warn the men to stand at attention in honor of the general.

"Sure, general, and the ventilation is bad, sorr, vera bad, sorr. The place is all full of holes, sorr."—Detroit Free Press.
Before the colonel could reply the old sergeant, with a familiarity born of long service, said
As they proceeded the general asked
"And how is the ventilation, colonel."
Charlie —No, mother; we didn't eat our own oranges. I ate Jack's and he ate mine. —Sydney Town and Country Journal
Two well known English plants, the thistle and the rape, are so imminual that if a field is infested with thistles, which come up year after year and ruin the crops, all you have to do is to sow it with rape. The thistles will be absolutely annihilated.
