THE COLLEGE MANS FUTURE.
The Method of Training the Undergrad-
uate In the Ideal University

The Method of Training the Undergrad
uate In the Ideal University.
What, in the growth of higher university
life, is to become of the undergraduate!
Will he not be made too subordinate be.
ing, In view of the lofty ideals of the uni.
versity? As matter Of fact, the grea,
numbers and tbs large significance of the
undergraduates every university insure
anu always will insure the closest atten-
ton to their needs and interests, however
much the ideal of the university grows
upon us, however lofty the more organic
and national purposes of our academic
work become
Of the proper place of the undergraduate
IN the organism of a great university /
nave pretty decided notion, which
should like to express as close. 1t is this:
In the true university the undergraduate
ought to feel himself novice In an order
of learned servants of the ideal-a novice
who, ii, in turn he be found willing and
worthy, may be admitted, after his first de-
gree, to the tolls and privileges of this order
as a graduate or, still later, as teacher;
but who, on the other hand, if, as will most
frequently happen, he is not for this call
ing, will be sent back to the world, en-
riched by his undergraduate years of inter
course with his fellows, and with elder
men and progressive scholars.
The ideal academic life, then, is not Or
ganized expressly for him. And yet he
will gain by the very fact that it is organ
lied Cor higher aims and upon more sig
nifcant principles than his individual in
terests directly involve. 1t is a mistake to
think first of "disciplining' the under
graduate mind, and then of higher AGA
demic purposes. FRS, let US seek the
highest, which is organized scholarship.
Then let us give ample time, teachers
and oversight to the undergraduates, but
let what we do for them be informed by
the true university spirit; that is, let us
treat them just as novices preparing to
enter the higher scholarly life in some one
of the multitudinous departments of mod
ern research, and let us train them as if
they were all known to be worthy of such
a calling. Josiah Royce in Serb

A Fish Wheel.

A machine for taking fish by the whole
sale is employed in North Carolina. 1t is
called fish wheel" and is worked like an
ordinary water wheel by a narrow stream
that is permitted to give outlet to a
damned stream. But it is so constructed
that in revolving it picks up all the fish
that pass through and throws them into a
great box. In the same state is operated
what is termed fish slide" which is
simply an enormous tray made of boards,
with bottom of open stats, set In the flow
of rapid. AS the fish come downstream
they pass on over the tray, and the water
falling through the stats leaves them Zap
ping about on the planks, whence they are
scooped up with dip nets.-Washingtos

A Democratic Club.

A petition has been numerously signed by
representative Democrats looking to a per-
manent organization of Democratic club
in this city and county. The first meeting
will probably be called for Friday evening
next, but due notice in that regard will be
given.
The object of the organization, as ex-
pressed by the petition, is not only to begin
early throughout the county to meet the
opposition, but also to discuss some of the
principal political issues, such as the alien
land law and sub-treasury scheme
Special attention also will be given to in
yiting and arranging for prominent speak
ers TO address the club before the meeting
of congress in December. The starting out
of the club will be conducted on systematic
principles, and no temporary affair will be
its fate, as is often the case through mis-
management Of such efforts.

The Como Club Ball.

The Como social club celebrated its third
anniversary last night at Como park. As
usual the attendance was large and select
and the public again manifested their ap-
probation on this occasion. The entertain
ments given by this club are in every way
conducive to mirth; the transportation is
ample and regular; the park is one of ma
lures most select retreats retouched by the
hand Of art rendering it place of beauty
and convenience. Last nighttime goddess of
pleasure reigned supreme, as the sweet
strains of Orpheus transported the audi
ence from the cares of life to scene of
absolute merriment-and eyes looked love
to eyes that went them one better.

Observations on Bats,

1t seems extraordinary, says The Illus
trated American, to observe number of
bats in the evening flying back and forth
through the trees with remarkable rapid
ity, but without ever coming in contact
with the branches or hurting themselves
Spallanzani, the Italian naturalist, placed
a bat in dark Enclosure, across which
were stretched number of threads, cross
ing and recrossing each other. The bat
flew rapidly back aud forth, trying to effect
its escape, but avoided the threads with as
much ease as if they had not been in its
way in the least. Whether this curious
power was the result of Il sixth and I'M
known sense was long puzzle to natural
lists. To decide this knotty point, Spal-
lanzani resorted to the cruel expedient of
binding bat, and found that it still few
among the threads without being, to all
appearances, any more inconvenienced than
if it still had its eyesight.

medal was awarded by the judges to

stamps missing. Fortunately there was
but small quantity of either and less
than $50 was taken in all. The safe was
badly wrecked. There is no clue toithe
identity of the burglars, though one OF
two strangers had been noticed about
the village a day or two previous. There
is regular gang of postofice burglars
who average about one robbery week
going all over the country. They have
come near being caught once or twice.

or not is difficult to determine. r,

concluded at Cambridge Friday, and was
a success in every respect. The associa-
ton was favored with splendid weather
on each day except one, and then a gentle
rain fell for few hours, heavy enough
to lay the dust The attendance was
simply enormous. The halls were packed
from morning till night, and thousands
wandered down by the cattle sheds and
horse stables and admired the excellent
stock. The exhibit of cattle was the
largest ever seen at any fair held in the
county. The stock was the admiration
of all the farmers There was liberal
display of agricultm al implements, while
the exhibit of farm produce was large
and varied. In the ladies department
the exhibit was large and included many
elegantly wrought articles of needle
work. This building was constantly
thronged with the fair sex, and the many
beautiful articles displayed were greatly
admired Many handsome works of art
were also among the attractions in this
department. In the line of sports there
was a good programme each day. 1t in

races were well consisted and good time

finest in the State for fair purposes.
The best of order was maintained in
