Westminster COLLEGE students Unearth a
Neat HIT or Rank Plagiarism.

A New Wilmington tPa.) special
says: The students Of Westminster
College, Of this place, are greatly ex-
cited at present over what has proven to
be the worst piece Of plagiarism known
in the history of the college. 1t has
been the custom for several years for
six students, selected from the junior
class, to hold an oratorical contest, CIV
ing original orations. two medals be-
ing awarded to the two best
orators. At the contest held
January Is, 1884, the first medal
was awarded to X. f. Stewart, Of Des
Moines, la. His subject was, " Ameri-
cas- Westminster y; at that time there
were rumors to the effect that it was
not original. The remaining five con-
testants investigated, and found that es-
sentially the same grafton had been de-
livered at Amherst College, Mass, some
time prior TO June =, 1877, as it was
published in the Amherst Student of
that date. They procured copy Of it,
certified by President Seeley, Of Am
herst, and had it published in the West
minister Hoicod of February I'd.
When confronted with this the gen.
tleman acknowledged that he had
" cribbed" his Grafton, and that pro-
fessor Of the college had given him his
subject and referred him to this ora
ton. The faculty have decided that
the gentleman committed an indiscre-
ton, but as the faculty'S decision was
so vague as to what constitutes an
original performance, the students say
they will have no more trouble getting
up college performances.
