Many Guests Go to the White House
to Greet the President.

Washington, D. c.. Feb. 22.-The
public reception by the President and
Mrs. Mckinley, deferred from Feb. Z

lie had assembled at the outer gate.
The reception lasted from 9 to II
o'clock, nearly 8, 900 visitors being adj

was ablaze with lights and beautiful
floral decorations that have not been
surpassed at any levee this winter.

conservatory as the President and Mrs.
Mckinley. followed by the members Of
the cabinet and their wives. the guests
of the presidential family and some
few personal friends Of the receiving
party, passed through the corridor to

of visitors took place.
As a study Of the American people,
tonight's reception was the most inter-
esting, as this was the first public re-
ception President Mckinley hes ever
held. Many of the callers appeared IN
full evening dress, to be followed im-
mediately by a colored waiter or some
charwomen from the departments who

nets and heavy wraps, men In over
coats and carrying umbrellas were
numerous.

PRESIDENT, FACULTY AND STU

The joy which President Smiley felt
over the passage of a certain bill by
the legislature last Thursday was re-
fected in the faces of the professors
and the students. A new building has
been the desire of all interested in the
university for a long time past and.
low that the desire has some chance
of being satisfied it is no wonder that
everyone is so pleased.
However unless the building is no
larger than any other building ever
erected it will scarcely contain enough
space to allow everyone room to graft
fly his pet scheme. From what it is
possible to hear, every professor simp-
ly must have more room, while the stu
dents all agree that the very first thing
to be fitted up ought to be a gymnasi-
UNI.
Even IL 1t is not possible to satisfy
the wants Of everyone, nevertheless a
new building is a new building, and
the students only wish that the legis-
lators would come to Laramie once
more in order that they might show

The arrangement arrived at by the
Franco-American committee by which
American students have this year for
the first time been enabled to study at
the French universities for a degree is
of the greatest Importance to all stu
dents. Formerly only French students
were given degrees from these univer-
sites and consequently nearly all the
work of Americans was done in Ger
many, where they had full advant-
ages. When French scholars came to
the realization of what they were los
ing by so many students going to Ger
many an effort was made to remedy
this defect in their educational insti-
tutions, with the result that now the
American is to be granted the same
privileges as the French student. 1t
is believed that in a short time schol-
arships will be established between
the French universities and our col
leges. Such an arrangement could not
but be OF the utmost service to all the
colleges concerned.

II any one had passed the door of the
study parlor last Monday he might
have wondered what serious thing had
happened to create such a disturbance.
The noise, however, was only the young
ladies discussing the arrangements for
their annual college luncheon, or tea,
as it is to be called this year. The dis
cussion was evidently not in vain as it
was finally decided to give the tea on
the tenth of next month in the armory.
The tea will take place at 6 O'Clock, at
the conclusion of which a pleasant
evening will he enjoyed. All the neces-
sary committees have been appointed
to take charge of this affair and there
is no doubt but that The evening of the
tenth will be a most entertaining one.
Those who will be fortunate enough to
enjoy the college tea are the faculty
and their wives and the college girls
and their guests.

The enthusiasm about college songs
does not abate, but all the students feel
that they would like a song that would
belong particularly to them and the
University Of Wyoming. 1t is probable
that before long we will have such a
song. Miss Downey has composed the
music and chorus of a ong and each
class is expected to write a verse, so
that in this way an interest will be at
tached to the song hat could not be if
