Wisconsin University Notes.

| Considerable interest is manifested il
University circles at the present time
| over a joint debate that will take place
in the near future between the Uni
yersity of Wisconsin and University o.
Michigan. Each University will be
represented by three of its most able
debators selected from the entire
student body and the outcome will be
watched with interest. Our state Uni
versity is rapidly assuming a leading
position among the institutions of its
kind in the United States. Progress is
the watchword in all its. departments
and every student wishes to see it take
a position second to none in the
country. The gentlemen who have
been selected for the debate are not
among the least in the manifestation OF
this spirit and we are sure will worthily
represent the U. w. in the coming con-
test.
Col. Henry Watterson, the learned
editor and gifted orator, of Louisville,
KY, delivered lecture on money
and Morals" in the Madison Opera
House Tuesday evening. The Colonel
has been recognized throughout the
country for many years past as one OF
the foremost of public men, while in
the sunny southern states he is held in
an esteem born of reverence and love.
He was secured through the efforts of
the students and was greeted by a
large and enthusiastic audience.
The annual Joint debate at the L. w.
will occur next Friday evening between
the Philomathian and Athenaen socie-
ties. Philomathia is comparatively a
new society and winner of the debate
last year, while Athenae has suffered
but few defeata during its long existence.
The event is anticipated with anxious
suspense as to the results.
We are always pleased to note the
progress of our young men in the Uni
versity. Last week at an election in
the Pnilomathian debating society to
choose principals for the annual public
event known as "The Freshman Blow
out" three honors out of eight bestowed
were received by, Grand Rapids boys,
Mr.. Theodore BraZeau was elected to
act as President of the evening, and
Will Conway and +. H. LaVigne az
closer and leader on debate respectively
This event will occur the second week
in the Spring term. Mr.. Heber Tibbits
was also last week elected president OF
the Junior class. These things speak
very fayorably for the boys and we hope
they will continue in the direction IL
which they have started.

THE JOURNEY OF LIFE.

Many years ago, on summers morn,
l set out on the journey of life,
And whirling along over pleasant ways,
Knew little of care and strife;
The sun shown bright and the sky was blue,
l saw not the clouds afar,
With Joy for conductor, my heart WAS gay
For rode in Palace Car.
1 stopped at stations in Dreamland fair,
At the close of each sunny day.
And found sweet rest. as the happy guest
Ofthe castles along the way,
Then up and on in the rosy morn
To move with jolt and jar,
For all the hours were strewn with flowers
When rode in Palace Car.
But lost my ticket, and sadly passed
Qn night of cold and rain)
To change my seat from the Palace Car
For one in the emigrant train,
And I felt alone, so far from home,
AS swift, like shooting star
Forever flashed from my sight away
The light of the Palace Car.
Oh! you who resting on cushioned ease,
Knowing little of want or pain,
Be kind to the weary ones who go
In the crowded emigrant train;
For we are but travellers passing along
To see all our dear ones again,
And while some may ride in gilded car
There are more in the emigrant train.

CO. TREASURER SHORT.
"Eionest" Peter Bever Behind about
$4,000.

To-day's Sentinel contained the fol-
lowing from Mansfield:
The County boam will hold special
meeting next week and investigate an
alleged discrepancy of $1,000 or 5000
in the accounts OF County Treasurer
Bever. The trouble is supposed to have
arisen during the last year of his first
term. He was elected to second term
last fall, but since his first election no
settlement has taken place between
himself and the county. The treasurer's
bonds are fixed at $4,000. and are
signed by the best business men of the
county.
