good THING.
Department of EIocution has done a
Great Deal for the Students.

Among the departments of the
University recently established the
department of elocution is becoming
OF great service to the student body.
Formerly the lack of department
OF this kind was very keenly felt and
the students were at great disad
vantage in their contests.
The good that the training has
done the men and women who have
taken it may be seen from the fact
that the winners in all Of the recent
contests have been trained by Prof.
Patterson. On Wednesday night
the two men who won were trained
by him while the others had not had
this drill
The University has much to con
graduate herself upon and in no di-
rection has greater good been done
for the boys and girls who come here
to be educaled than in the direction
of evolutionary training.

A Good Show.

The second and best tented show
of the season appeared here on Sat
urday. 1t was Welsh Bros. and it's
second appearance. Nothing but
words of praise can be said for the
performance. 1t is thoroughly up
to date and first class all the way
through. The one ring feature en-
ables spectators to see everything
that is going on and the entire pro
gram was excellent and was well
worth the price of admission. Both
afternoon and night they showed to
large audiences.
At seven o'clock in the evening a
balloon ascension was given and a
parachute jump was made by Prof.
David MeDade, the noted aeronaut,
which was witnessed by all the
whole town. This is the second as
cension Prof. McDade has made
here, he having assembled when he

STtTE BOARD.
The Day yesterday Devoted to the work
of Institute What was Done.

The State Board Of Agriculture con-
yened at 10 O'Clock a. M. Wednesday
in the Agricultural Hall, with the
Pres. 5. NJ. Atkinson in the chair.
Mr.. Sydenstricker introduced the
Subject Of Institutes by showing the
necessity for holding Institutes in the
fall and spring, and not continue
through the Summer season. This
subject is receiving a great deal of at
tention by the Board, as it is the most
effective way to reach and interest the
farmers in the new methods of his
work. This subject was discussed by
all present as to the best methods to
adopt.
1t was decided by the Board to di-
vide the State inte districts and the
members exchange with one another
in the work to be done. Mr.. Syden-
strickner was appointed a committee
to formulate some system for holding
institutes to be presented to the board
at its next meeting.
Mr.. Sydenstricker and c. c. Brown
institute Directors were appointed a
committee to arrange for Institute
following the Board meetings October
for October and November Much
other business of a miscellaneous char
acter was transacted after which the
board took a recess until 2 p. m. At
ter some routine business and report
OF COMMITTEES, j. II. Stewart Director
of the Experiment Station came by
invitation before the board to discuss
the ACCESSIBILITY of at least one repre-
sentative Of the Experiment Station
attending each and every institute
that will be held in the future. Mr..
Stewart expressed himself as being in
hearty sympathy with the board and
its work and would cooperate as far
as possible in the work. The board
of Regents being in session sent a
message to the board of Agriculture
inviting them to meet with them to
consider some business in which both
are interested.
Mr.. J. L. Rathburn whose term of
office has expired and who is succeeded
by James George Of Mason county,
read his farewell address which was
very interesting and contained the
kindest expressions. The members
present responded to Mr.. Rathburn,
expressing their kindest solicitations
and best wishes for Mr. Rathburns
future. After passing several resolu-
tions and transacting other business
the board adjourned to meet at p.
m, Thursday.

SMALL CROWD.
Compile of Reasons for the Decrease
in the Size of the Commencement
Crowds.


The Commencement crowd is
away below the average and it is
not as large as it was last year when
its smallness was generally remark
ed. The reason for this falling off
in interest may be found in several
directions 1t is duepartly to the
fact that the seniors no longer take
any part in the speaking on Com
mencement day which is done by
some prominent man. The fathers
who have sons to graduate would
come to hear their boys talk but
they do not care to come here to
hear some one else talk for them.
This undoubtedly keeps many peo-
pie away.
The fact that there was so much
question about the commencement
Ball kept many of the society peo-
pie away. They were here in num-
bers in former years and have very
good representation now but not
nearly what it used to be. These
.wo factors together with a number
of others due to change from the
old way has taken a great deal OF
the former interest out Of the day
and the crowd does not come as it
then did

result Of this was almost chance

Ease-One Sided Game although the
Score Was close.

The base ball game on Wednesday
afternoon resulted in victory for the
University by score of twelve to
eight. The contest was uninterest-
ing although the score was close.
{This was due to rank errors and the
Visitors should have been beaten by a
much larger score. The chances are
Ithat this will be done this afternoon
when they are meeting again.

First Place in This.

la. l.. Sawtell takes Second Prize
One Hundred Dollars goes to the first
man and Medal to the Second
other Contestants -The Program of
the Evening.
The contest for the Wiles prize on
Wednesday night attracted a very
large crowd and it was very fine
contest. The first prize of one hun
bred dollars in gold was won by
/ Chas f. Holden and the second be
inc sixty dollar medal was taken
by A. L. Sawtelle, of Wheeling.
The contest had aroused a great
deal Of interest and very tight one
was expected. The people turned
out in great numbers to hear the
performance which was of very
high order Of merit.
There were five contestants all
members of the senior class as this
prize is only offered to the members
of that class. Messrs III. w. Horn,
Hauber, Hunter, Sawtelle and Hol-
|, den were the entries.
Col. r. E. Fast presided and intro
duced the speakers. The orations
were in the main very short and very
\ good The musical part of the pro
gram was excellent and the audience
was greatly aroused over the singing
1especially. The Mems Glee Club
was encored twice on their last num-
Der and they made great hit.
The result of the contest was per-
fectly satisfactory to the audience
and everything in connection with it
kpassed off as smoothly as possible.
The judges were Prot. A. H. Rey-
nolds, Superintendent, Martin Fer
! ry, Ohio, J. c. Work, Esq, of Union
town, and Clayton Purnell, Esq, of
Frostburg, Md Che judges graded
each contestant separately, without
consultation among themselves and
rendered sealed decisions. These
decisions were opened and averaged
by committee chosen by the con
|. testants consisting Of Prof Hodges,
Mr. Henry M. White and Clyde d.
Barbe
The prizes are offered by John w.
Wiles who is leading real estate
agent of this place and an enthusi-
astc graduate of the University. He
has taken much interest in the insti-
tuition since his graduation and this
is one of the many things that he
has done to show his appreciation
of the school, More alumni of the
same description would not come
ht all amiss.
