ant and instructor, in the gymnasium.
Some Of the young ladies' were rat

on and thus averted a dire calamity.
Turing the afternoon the visitors
were taken to the Judging rooms OF
the experiment station across the
river, where Prof. c. J. griffith of Fort
Collins conducted the Judging in the
swine class. The list of swine In
cluded the six belonging to the station
and some fat animals owned by Mr..
Claud Farrar. The visitors noted the
the short course and heard Prof. Grit
fifth expatiate or It, and were then
shown about the station. getting a
view Of the different animals owned
there and the manner of feeding prac-
ticed. All spoke In very high terms Of
praise Of the manner in which they
had been treated by the citizens Of
the city and the faculty Of the uni
versity. President Lewis and Direc-
tor Buffum, assisted by all others con.
nected .wkh->-the- university. were
thanked time and again.
