philosophy at Queens College since 1872,
period of twenty-four years. He was
graduated from the University of Glasgow,
having received from that institution the
degrees OF NJ A. and LID, after which
he studied for time at Oxford.
While at Oxford he was a pupil of DR..
Kant, the eminent writer of treatises on
philosophy, and was also under Professor
Jewett, master of Balliol College, Oxford.
For the past year the union at Berkeley
has been discussing DIR. Watsons work on
"Kant and His English Critics" and it is
this work which will form the central topic
of discussion at the meetings in May.
1t is the purpose of the union to bring to
this coast each year some man OF emil
nence in the world of philosophical
thought for the purpose of conducting
discussions and delivering lectures on
some particular line of metaphysics. In
tense interest was centered in the lectures
of DR.. Royce last year, and the union has
felt that the good derived from them is a
sufficient justification for the indefinite
continuance of these addresses from emil
nent men. The union has had healthy
existence from its very inception, which
was in 1889, to the present time, and is con-
stantly broadening in its scope. At the
present time the members of the union are
divided into four orders-honorary, cor
respondent, active and associate. D. o.
Mills is at the present time the only hon.
orary member.
Professor Josiah Roye of Harvard, Presi-
dent Schurman of Cornell, Mrs. Ella
Mitchell of Denver, author of "The Study
of Greek Philosophy Professor John
Watson of Queens College and Hon. w.
B. Harris, United States Commissioner of
Education.
The active members are made up of
those who have been in some way con-
nected with the department of philosophy
at the university, and the associate mem
bers are made up OF those who are outside
of the university, but are interested in the
work of the union.
Professor Hawison, head of the depart
ment at Berkeley. stated to-day that he
looked upon the coming of Professor Wat
son as furnishing one of the greatest lit
erary and philosophical feasts which the
university has had in many years.
University Vacation.
BERKELEY, CAL, April 26.-Regular
recitations at the university closed yester-
day, and the annual examinations in all
the departments at Berkeley will COM

until May g. On Wednesday of this week
will occur the annual inspection and re-
view of the military department with
sham battle in the afternoon. Ninety
sevens Blue and Gold will appear on that
day also.
Athletes Chagrined.
BERKELEY, CAL, April 26.-The ath-
letes of the university who participated in
the field day with Stanford yesterday
seemed somewhat inclined to feel cha
grined to-day because of not being able to
forge another link for the thus far un-
broken chain of victories on the track
against Stanford.
To say the least, they are more than sur

prised at the work of the Palo Alto boys,
and the lesson they received will probably
cause them to put still more effort into
their work at the coast championship
games on Maya.
They say that the results of yesterdays
contests were not so much a matter OF
shortcoming on their part as the unprece-
dented increase of strength on the part of
the Palo Alto team. The hottest contest
ever held on the Pacific Coast in track and
field athletics is expected next Saturday,
when the two college teams meet to work
off the tie and to determine the absolute
championship of the coast.

BERKELEY, CAL, April 26.-Dr. John
Watson, the celebrated English philoso-
pher, of Queens College. Queenstow wn, Can
ada, will arrive in Berkeley next Satur-
day for the purpose of delivering series of
lectures in his speciality to the Theosoph-
ical Union of the State University. Dur
ing the entire week, beginning with Mon.
day the 4th prox., Professor Watson will
deliver lectures and hold discussions be-
fore the union and its immediate friends.
but on the evening of May IL he will de-
liver free public lecture at the gymna-
SUM on the university grounds, which
will be in nature similar to the address
delivered by Professor Josiah Royce of
Harvard last May. The memb bers of the
union, OF which there are at the present
time upward of 200 on the active roll. are
anticipating the Lectures of DR.. Watson
with much pleasure and satisfaction, since
he is recognized as being one of the ablest
philosophers on the American Continent
to-day. He comes under circumstances
similar to those of DR.. Royce last year
the union paying his expenses and fur
nlshing him entertainment while here.
Professor Watson has never visited the
Pacific Coast, and, consequently, is known
here only through his writings and through
those who have met him in the East. He
is just 4S years of age ct this time, and has
been at the head of the department of
