ton of the Final Officers of the Wash
lngton Literary Society took place.
There WAS q much more sDlrt d con-
test over the election than is usual in
the Wash there being three candidates
in the field. Mr.. W. F. Gunter, of
Eastern Shore, Va, was the sue essful
candidate. MIR. Gnnter Is prominent
member of the law class. and his cleo
ton, in tn, face of the fact that this is
his first session at the University, is
not only fitting testimonial of his pop

ton. Mr.. Bissell, of West Virginia,
was elected Vice President. The other
officers are to lie appointed by the Pres
ident. The next excitement in store
for the literary societies will be the
