Pauw University will still live: It's life is
not dependent o N DR.. John as its president
or DR.. Sims as its chancellor. or on a
million or more from the DePauws- The
worst feature in the case Is the two facts
that when this large donation came the
men who had been cheerful givers in
small sums retired. under the impression
that their university could now do without
their aid and sympathy. and they with
drew from active interest in IL. and the
fact that nothing has been done or is
likely to be done soon TO tie the alumni
to the university. If this furry shall dis
abuse the former. and bring them again
into a hearty financial support of the in
stitution. and shall somehow induce the
preachers TO confess that they are not
able alone to do the best possible thing
for the institution. and shall ask the alumni
10 bear a part of the burden and share
in the honor of electing trustees. the pres
ent painful experience will be, like many
others, a blessing in disguise. DR.. John
may forever retire from the presidency,
the present faculty may all follow. and the
DePauw benefaction may vanish in thin
air. but DePauw University will remain.
Men may come and men may go, and money
may come and go. too. but DePauw goes on
forever. T. a. GOODWIN.

acute attack OF gastralgia. with congestion

oplates. Those conditions continued in a
rather severe form till Friday, May 3. when
the stomach and bowel troubles were much

from the Inflammation OF the liver. Upfto
this time Secretary Gresham had no cold

concerned they were repetifions of former
attacks, through which Secretary Gresham
