An important special business meet
ing Of the B. j. F. Debating society
was held in Fenwick hall last evening.
The principal matter considered by the
society was the question Of the pro-
posed intercollegiate debate with the
Fulton Debating society of Boston col
lege. After a few preliminary re-
marks and the announcement that Rev.
John f. Lehy, president Of the college,
had sanctioned the holding of the de-
bate, the chairman invited the society
to discuss the question thoroughly.
This was done, every member of the
society stating his views and offering
all possible objections. John r. Nc
Tigue, Great Darlington, Mass, moved
that the society accept the challenge of
the Fulton d. s. to q friendly debate,
and that the corresponding secretary
notify the Boston College club to that
effect. The vote taken showed the
body to be unanimously in favor. The
following committee was chosen to
make all necessary arrangements:
John e. McTigue, 1900, Great Barring
ton, Mass. (chairman); John J. Mulla-
ly 1900, Brooklyn, N. Y; William F.
Toohig, 1900, Chelsea, Mass; John F.
Murphy, 1901, Lewiston, Me-; Joseph A.
Mulhearn, 1900 Wilkesbarre, Pa: and
William P. Kennedy, 1900, West Spring
field, Mass. (ex-officio),
This is an entirely new departure for
a Holy Cross debating society, and is
surely a step in the right direction
Although an annual prize medal debate
is held by both the PhIomathic and B.
J. F. debating societies, this is the first
intercollegiate debate to be held, and
being as it is, arranged with the old
foot ball rival of Holy Cross-Boston
college-will certainly be warmly con-
tested. Holy Cross is richer than ever
before in debaters. The Fulton So
ciety has COPIED successfully against
Harvard and Georgetown.
PROF. william j. Howard or the BOS-
tor Conservatory of Music conducted
yesterday the first rehearsal of the now
organizing Holy Cross orchestra. There
are more musicians at the college than
ever before, and they are showing a
great interest in the work. Prof. How
ard was well pleased with the first re-
hearsal, and told the moderator Mr.
Henry j. Leary, S. j., that he was CON
fdent of making a good showing on the
night of its first appearance, which will
be at the rhetoricians' fete night.
The Holy Cross foot ball squad had
a day off from practice yesterday, and
took advantage of the lay-off to see the
Worcester academy Harvard freshmen
game at the oval. The entire squad
was much taken with the work of
Norris, the academy back.
Rev John B. Mulaly, S. j.. treas
urer of Holy Cross college. is making
his annual retreat at the Frederick,
Nd, mother house of the society On
his return trip he will stop at George
town university for few days. Hell
will be gone about one month.
