princeton college Eas again been thrown
into state OF excitement. THIS time it is
not tie revolutionary cannon which the
Princeton students cherish so fondly, no.
the secret society business that created such
stlr about year ago, but the question o.
admitting colored students TO college exer-
clses. The facts seem to be briefly these
For several years the Theological seminary
has admitted oolored students on the same
terms as other students Last year several
OF the colored seminary students desired 10

class In college They were harmless and
tnoffensive persons, and as they occupied
some OF the vacant seats In the rear OF the
room no notice was ever taken OF them by
the students. This year, however, another
colored student desiring to take the same
course asked and received permission from
DIR. McCosh te attend his lecture. This
aroused the indignation OF the present junior
class, especially the southern members, and
accordingly about twenty got up petition
earnestly entreating the faculty 10 prohibit
colored students from attending the college
lectures. DR.. McCosh is understood TO hold
that IL Is perfectly proper that they should
be allowed to attend his lectures II they

class sienined their Intention of leaving col

this sudden stir will amount TO anything or
not, or how the question will finally be set

lon In college is, that IL was unnecessary 70

that IL would have been better for them, Ike
