Special to the Star.

Special to the Sta.
DELAWARE, O., June Is.
The commencement exercises of the
Ohio Wesleyan University have been
very well appreciated and well attended.
The exercises commenced Yesterday at
7 a. m. and were continued till about s
p. m. Many Of the Trustees, the visiting
committee, and all the members of the
faculty were present. The Rev. Joseph
M. Trimble, of Columbus, led in prayer.
After prayer the following programme
was followed out: "Fidelity to the
Present." M. w. Webster; "Cir-
cumstances Which Help to
Make the Man." W. NJ Rice; "The New
Common Sense" Miss Mamie w. Reagh;
"The Scottish Covenanters," John Bath
nell; Music; Couture aud Morality"
Frank P. Parkin; "The Monroe Doc
trine," Joe X. Owen; "The Italy of the
Future" Miss Eva Mckenzie; Music;
1.-THE Gift of Conversation" Miss Clo-
tilda Lyon; "Life Power" J. w. Luc-
cock; "Defects of Philosophy" Joseph
Long; Music. q, 2 p m.-Music; Prayer;
Music; "The Esthetics of Literature" !"
Miss Minnie Light; "Science not the

bury; "The Study of the Classics" Miss
Kate R. Blair; sour National Dis
honor" Bostwick Barnes. Thus, you
see, there were sixteen speakers out Of
the forty-nine graduates Of the Ohio
| Wesleyan University.
The graduating degrees were conferred
upon the graduating class by President
G. "a. Payne. DR.. Payne gave the class
an address which adds much to his
credit. The speeches. of Mr.. W. N.
Rice and Joseph Long were believed by
many to be the best; but the
Ohio Wesleyan University has
no reason to be ashamed OF
| any of her graduates. Parents need not
be ashamed to send their children to
this university Of moral and religious
| instruction, and also of learning. The
exercises of the Crestomathean, Athe-
| nian, Zetagathean and Meleterian Liter.
| ary Societies were very good, and reflect
much credit ON the literary works Of
the Ohio Wesleyan University. The
class-day programme for this year was
| carried out we'll. There are 192 students
in the collegiate department, l5S stu
dents in the Ladies Department, 105 stu

PhOtOgraphing a Gorilla.
PHILADELPHIA Times.l

The sight of a photographer leveling
his apparatus at a hideous-looking OBJ.
jpct standing beneath tree in the yard
of the Pennsylvania Hospital, at Eighth
and Spruce Streets attracted throng Of
spectators to the railing surrounding the
Hospital, and as they peered anxiously
and eagerly through the iron bars to get
a glimpse Of the "whatis-it' many sur
mises were made as to the character of
the mysterious thing. Said one indi-
yidual: ~ know it's mummy, for I saw
one at Barnum's show" There's where
you make a mistake" remarked a boot.
black, "Pll 60 ye two to one it's General
Grant" "Lissen at his nibs," yelled a
street gamin, derisively, as he heard the
aliusion to the third-term candidate;
"that's all you knows bout it. That ar
thing is Charlie Ross" "Wnat do yer
say? It's too big fur to be Char
lier' "Not much; the kid didn't want 'er
wear dress all his life, 80 he growed outer
them" eyer all on the wrong tack" in
terrupted a shrewdlooking newsboy. "I

What, yer give it up already9 Well,
I'll tell yer. It's g'riller. 1t died up
at the Zoo from eating wind, and they're
taking his mug to send it to his dad in
Afrekee."
While this conversation was going on
the photographer was taking likeness
of the creature, which turned out to be
the body of a monster gorilla, imported
from Africa by DR.. Thomas G. Morton,
Of the Pennsylvania Hospital. The ami.
NAL, which was female adult, fully
fifty years Of aye, presented horrible
appearance. An the hair had fallen off
excepting a small patch on the breast
from the softening action Of the rum
in which it was kept during the voyage
to this country.
1t is four feet and four inches high
weighs 140 pounds, and has a chest al
large as that of a robust man. The
arms measure thirty-eight and one-hall
inches, and are in strange contrast with
the legs, which are only twenty-one and
one-half inches long. The head is fright
full looking. 1t is much broader than il

A pair of brown, bead-like eyes, dull ir
