Debating Club Reaping Harvest In
Fines.

Fines.
The debating club met last Wednes-
day night. A good many members were
away on sleighrides, but az this meant
more fines, and consequently more mon
ey in the treasury, no one was disposed
to regret their absence. The member
who stays away does not hurt the society
for the society will live just the same,
but aside from the fines which he incurs,
he loses training, more valuable than
the fine he pays. With the facilities for
literary work. which the society now
affords, one capnot afford 10 lose single
meeting. The society does not merely
give training in debating, but in essay
writing and in parliamentary practice.
The subject of the last debate was. Re-
solved that Lee was greater than
Grant" Decision was in favor of the
negative. One Of the most encouraging
signs was that all the members filled out
their time, and although they did not
always talk to the point, they talked and
showed that they knew something about
the subject. The debate gave promises
Of still better ones to be held In the
future.

japanese squadron met the Russian
cruisers from VladiVostock in the vi

the result of which is not made known.
The purpose of the japanese ships in
proceeding to NladivostOck was not to
lombard the town but to locate Ad-
miral Reitzenstein's ships. which were
thought to have left the harbor. The
Japanese squadron was sufficiently
strong to divide one portion guarding
