enthusiastic loyalty which marks the

ant in the worlds metropolis, Beloit col
lege yesterday celebrated the end of its
first half-century' epoch Of service to the
cause of religion, morality and education.
The sentiment expressed most often
among the groups of graduates assem-
bled to do honor from many states to
their alma mater or her day of jubilee
was: This is great day for Queen
Victoria, who has made the record reign
of history. 1t is a great day also for
Beloit, the Queen college of the North
west, which completes fifty years of a
reign prolific in the educational blessings
which it has given to the great West in
the formation period of its development"
Perhaps the most significant of all the
events of jubilee day was in BelOit's
formal jubilee recognition of the worth
of Lyman j. Gage of Chicago, the hon
Ored type of the citizenship which has
builded up the great West during the
last fifty years of unexampled progress.
Upon the secretary of the treasury was
conferred the title of doctor of laws,

invitation of the Lake Geneva fire de-
partment and took a ride round the lake
