Great Things Predicted for Cornell's Mill fol
Making Newspaper Men.

ITHACA, June 1.-THE prospective course Of
Journalism at Cornell University promises to
surpass the greatest expectations, If present in
dications 60 for anything. Not only has the
press of the country generally Endorsed the
proposed plan. but also the young aspirants for
newspaper fame. Already President Adams
is receiving large number OF inquiries
regarding the course from all over the States,
so that he has been compelled to issue q circu.
lar letter in reply. The new course seems to
have attracted the widest attention. and devel-
oped the fact that there are very many young
men who want to become journalists Present
indications point to . high tide in newspaper
literature at Cornell next year The official an
nouncement 10 as follows:
Observation-Disclosures on different phases of Jour-
nais; practical instruction in the beg inning of
paper work and reporting; treatment of the different
classes of news preparing copy for the printer and
much of the detail that is slowly picked up by the
porter in the newspaper Office. The Professor who
has had experience in metropolitan journal
ism, organizes the class the plan of the staff
of large newspaper. and the student is set pract
cal work. Fall and winter for seniors and
graduates aud such juniors have editorial positions
any of the university journals. 1t will be seen
that the course is open only to juniors and senior
and graduate students like all other courses such
special students as may be recommended by the
