The University.

The state university receives nearly
5000, 900 for is maintenance for the
next two years. or this large sum
about SIS, 900 will be expended in sal
aries and the remainder will be devot-
ed to Improvements, the requirement
of new ground, the erection of new
buildings, and the addition OF equip
ment needed in various departments.
This handsome appropriation is an
evidence that the work that is being
done by the university is beginning to
be felt and appreciated in every sec
ton. A few years ago, it would have
been impossible to have secured from
the most friendly legislature, a sum
one-half or quarter as large as will
be expended by the university for i'm
provements during the next two years.
During the next two years, the
News confidently expects that the
university will be even more prosper

He had also performed other things
prescribed by the law and for these
he had been tried and found guilty.
This had troubled his soul but
little and he had steadily refused to
be good or to cough for the trans

against him. The fines and costs
in the cases amounted to more than
one hundred dollars. This the coun-

In Memoriam.
ALExANpRIA CAY BROWN.

IAN is Of God 1.-The but wave his hand,
The mists collect, the rain fall thick and loud,
Til with a smile OF light on sea and land,
Io he looks back from the departing cloud.
Angels Of Life and Death alike are his:
Without his leave they pass no threshold o er;
Who then would wish or dare, believing this,
Against his messengers to shut the doorf'
In the last moments of Feb. 23d,
the Angel of Death, with but few
hours warning of his nearness, en-
tered the home of Mr. and Mrs.
John j. Brown and claimed their
daughter Alexandria Gay.
"He reaps the bearded grain at a
breath
And the flowers that grow between"
Gay had been given the best nnr-
ture and culture of good christian
home, and the best christian schools
To this she had responded, so as to
bring Joy to the hearts of loving
friends, and to raise high their ex
pectations and hopes for her future.
She had learned to prize the best
things of life, the love of home, and
of worthy friends, the joys of music,
and the wealth of the worlds best
literature.
In the home she was devoted
daughter and sister. No better mem
ory of any conscious neglect on her
part remains there. A confidential
companion Of her loved ones she
gave to them her best, and by her
music and loving ministrations
brought to them good cheer and
comfort. She was an earnest chris
tian, living daily, sthe life that is
hid with Christ in God" conscien-
tious in all things, avoiding even the
appearance of evil, lest she might
bring reproach on the name of her
Master Never very strong, with a
sensitive nature she longed for the
power for larger service. But the
ones who know her best feel that
"she hath done what she could" and
that her life has been useful to the
world to degree far beyond that OF
many who were more conspicuous.
And now we can say OF her:
"And, doubtless, unto thee is given
A life that bears immortal fruit
In such great offices as suit
The full grown energies of heaven.
