Prof. Thornby was able to be with
her class in physical culture this week
for the first time since her sickness.
Last Thursdays snow SO effectually
cooled the ardor of our football fiends
that we have not heard even a hint ola
game since.
Arthur Ottman returned to college
this week. His two weeks absence
wa caused by the sickness of his broth
err who has been verylow with typhoid
fever.
The geology class finished the text
this week and the members are now
preparing their theses upon subjects
of particular interest to students from
the Black Hills.
The Philomathean open session has
been postponed until next term. This
is too bad as a good program had been
scheduled but circumstances seemed
to be against the society this time.
Coasting is just now holdings place
second only to that of study in the af-
fections of many college people. Three
pairs of hobs are not too many to ac-
comodate the devotees of this sport.
Next Thursday we shall have the
term orations of the senior and junior
classes. That they will be good goes
without saying, goes SO far, in fact,
that we wish there was no such thing
as u chapel Grafton.
We O have a stringed orchestra
as is an orchestra. Miss Stanley and
Messrs. Cleaver, Stanley and Stewart
are the only members at present but
they tell us that the club will be in
creased by the addition of two
| performers after Christmas.
The organization of the class in mil
itary drill was permanently perfected
this week by the appointment Of the
following officers: LIST sgt, Ladd, End

An epidemic seems to have broken

the art of illustration had taken on fresh

Illustrated magazines and periodicals Sprang
up like magic to fill the demand or the pub
lie which refused to look at a publication
unless 1t had some sort of a picture. The
illustration of books, too, took on a new
aspect. 1t was found that the public desired
what is known technically as the nat BOOK
that is, large books for the table; and poems
were issued at holiday time, .embellished
viriity and artistic quality. Artists who had
hitherto produced their works in color alone
began to illustrate, and vice versa. The
illustrators were often exhibitors in the cur
rent exhibitions. So the art of the illustrator
was raised in dignity, and occupied mere IN
the United States the position to which 1t
was entitled, and which it had long occupied

Europe was expressing its surprise at the
high order of talent, ability and achievement
which American illustrators were showing.

The Apron Once More.

New York sun.
Women have taken to the apron again.
This is well, because nothing makes a
woman look more at home in her own
apartments than dainty little apron. Our
grandmothers would as soon have thought
of leaving off their capes or dainty collars
and cuffs as their black silk or alpaca
aprons in the house. The modern apron is
not so somber an affair as it was in those
days The more useful and less expensive
ones are made of fine lawn and trimmed
with a little embroidery or lace of dainty
pattern. others are made of bands of white
or colored satin ribbons put together with
lace insertion, straight up end down, cross
ways or diagonally. full frili of lace all
the way round, bows on the pockets and
ribbon strings give the finishing touch.
1T is perfectly astonishing" said beau
tifully goWned woman at the apron coun-
ter in a big store, how these little aprons
save ones skirts, and women generally are
wearing them now. No matter how many
servants a woman keeps, she always has
certain precious possessions that she likes
to dust or care for in some way herself
and that's where these little lawn aprons
come in. Then / find that the lace and
ribbon aprons are great comfort when
I'm doing fancy work, making afternoon
tea or cooking something in the chafing
dish for my spoiled boys when they come in

BIRTH OF A LANGUAGE.
A Weird JargOn Similar to "Pidgin
English OF the Far East.
Buffalo ENQUIRER.


In the new number of the British Central

interesting particulars of new language
which has sprung up within recent years in
Central Africa 1t is, he says, "a weird
jargon, or perhaps language, on par with
'pidgin English of the far East or the num-
erous other tongues by which travellers and
Sojourners in strange lands make their
wants known to the natives. Many may not
know of the language, but 1t is spoken by
hundreds daily, and fiourishes mostly where
the white man has built bona, and in
which there is a Sikh garrison. The origin
ator of 1t is a Sepoy from over the black
water (sea.) How was 1t first introduced?
When he first came into the country did he
buy Dr. Scott's grammar and dictionary
and endeavor to learn the language gram
matically and comprehensively, as we pa
tient Europeans do? No: although here to-
day and there tomorrow, as we are, in
conjunction with his comrades, the conserv-
alive Sikh evolved from his inner conscious
ness a language which is learned by his re-
lief from India in turn Its component parts

A Shenherd,s Song.

My lot in lifes unknown estate,
Forbids me but to humbly sing
A whispered song beside your gate,
When night its shady curtains fling;
For in nisfortupe's horoscope
My star Of birth was darkly set
And thus my life has lacked a hope
That has not risen for me yet.
Contented thus idly stray,
Companion of the wales and hills,
And teach to them a mournful lay,
Proclaiming all my woes and ills. :.
/ wake the echoes fast asleep,
And dreaming in pellucid noon;
Or else when hreezes idly sweep
Aeoian harps beneath the moon.
Led by diviner hopes supreme,
Inviting all my latent power,
Beneath the moons refulgent beam
1 deftly wake the tranquil hour,
Till throbbing stars in bluest isles
Are pulsing with unwonted grace;
These softly fade but not the smiles
Bedecking still fairer face.
An envious beam Of daylight breaks
Along the hills. Another strain,
The minstrel sings ere he forsakes
The bowr where midnight tapers wanei
For still the splendor overfows
The dykes of morning; purple seas
Are blending as one crimson rose,
That spills its nectar the breeze.
The burdened chords with less delight
Now tremble in advancing blue,
Delaying those fond dreams of night
That fade with mornings early dew;
But on shore they cry farewell,
While others wait to welcome hail;
So hills and valleys where 1 dwell
Expect the coming of my SAIL

made long breastwork from two and one
