BY OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.
Prof. White is still in town. he ex-
poets to remain about two weeks.
Student Berkeley is well enough
to attend his classes again
The cadet corps has two moro re-
cruits, Mr.. Hooff. of jefferson and
Mr.. Long of Monongalia.
A detachment of ten cadets under
Serg't Boyd amused themselves at
the Armory, Saturday, by cleaning
a cannon.
The usual amuont of noise and
cheering has still been continued in
chapel before the entrance of the
Faculty. The students on entering
Chapel Hall Wednesday morning
found the Chairman already there.
They suspected their noise on former
occasions had something to do with
the presence of the Chairman now.
They beat a hasty retreat and spread
the alarm. When the time for chapel
services arrived there were four stu
dents present. The next morning
the usual number was there again.
Lieut.. Wilson, the new Comman-
dant has arrived. He was introduced
to the students by the Chairman, at
chapel Friday morning. He re
sponded in few words and was hear
tily applauded by the students. He
will take charge of the corps soon.
While we regret very much to see
Major Lee 60, we think that the corps
will still have an efficient instructor
in Lieut.. Wilson. Majors earnest
and faithful work has been appreci-
ated by the corps. And we believe
that every cadet regrets the severing
of his connection with the corps.
The small boy committed his us
ual depredations about the University
grounds Friday night. It's being
Halloween gave him license.
The subject for debate in the Co
lumbar Literary Society at the last
meeting was: Resolved, THAT the
introduction of labor saving ma
chinery has improved the condition
of the laboring classes. To affirm:
Bush and Rymer; to deny: Waters
and Hartmeyer.
In the Parthenons the subject un-
der discussion was whether the Pres
ident of the United States should
have more power. To affirm: Rector
and Swan; to deny: Sturgiss and
Smith.
