Prof. Royce's Lecture-The Republican
Club to Join the State League.

Prof Royce's Lecture-The Republican
Club to Join the State League.
DIR. Josiah Royce delivered his second
philosophical lecture last night in Man
ming Hall, upon the subject of''The Trans
ition in Philosophical Thinking from
Spinoza to Kant" He said in part: Des
Cartes had become disgusted with the ex-
listing philosophy. IL is said that he be-
gan by doubling everything and ended by
believing everything. His theory was that
he could believe his own existence and al
ways used this one main principle to de-
eide every question that came up for solu-
ton. There was not much interest in the
man himself in the seventeenth century
but rather in abstract facts.
The great question that troubled Des
Cartes most was that of innate ideas and
traits. He claimed that they were present
with the youth but not yet developed
Next he took up the philosophy of John
Locke and his essay on the Human Under
standing. From Locke is traced long
list of celebrated philosopher, as Hume,
Adam Smith, Hobbies, and Shaftesbury,
with many others.
Iocke's theory was that our knowledge
came from experience and our thoughts
arise from the same source. and depend
directly upon our senses
Prof Royce found fault with Locke's
theory ofeXperience, since the simple eX-
perience as touch, taste, smell, etc, can
not explain God, religion and the possi-
bility OF the future world.
Next following Locke came Berkley,
enlarging upon the thought Of Locke,
especially in the line of sight.
Berkley claimed that the world is
simply world i'm thought and out of this
idea attempted TO explain the existence of
God.
Hume showed in his philosophy that
Berkley was wrong and everything must
be explained by causes.

Clever Catches.

a young lady was once talking with n
very young and very smart man, who was
inclined to mir his knowledge of the lau-
guages r little beyond what she felt that
modesty required. She therefore said to
him, with an air Of Difference to his supc-
rior attachments:
You are Latin scholar 1 wish YOU
would tell me how to pronounce the word
Sometimes
The youth, with an air of kindly patron
age, replied, 81 have not met the word in
my Latin reading, but l should have no
hesitation in saying that it should be pro-
nounced sometimes " giving it in four
syllabes, the accent on the second)
Thank You for telling me-" replied the
girl demurely. Il have always heard it
pronounced sometimes, but if you say the
other way that must be right"
This is similar to the perhaps familiar
catch of the pronunciation of ''bac- kac-hc,"
which will often surprise the unnitiated
by proving to be only backache. 1t also
reminds one of a question printed some
years since, as to the way of spelling
"need''-to need bread. The average per-
son will reply 'k-n-c-a-d of course" but
the answer will be, that is the way to
spell knead dough, but not to need bread. 4"
