THE FOCR.QUART HORN.
Young Columbia Students Gcrmanizinc
 With Resultant Headaches.


 New York. March Prof Karl Lamprecbt of the University of Leip. zic visited Columbia last fall. Tester. day almost all the members of the Co. lnmbia Deutscher Verein had head. aches. This is why:
 Prof Lamprecht. when he came to Columbia on short visit last fall. vas entertained by the DeutSchcr Yer ein at kommerS. He went away de. claring that he would show his grati- tude appropriately. On Monday there arrived at Columbia n special old style German drinking horn. trimmed and engraved and resting on a pedestal. The horn was supposed to be a be- lated Christmas gift. With it came Il request to each member to fill and drink i'll recognition of toast which the professor was spending across the Atlantic.
 Each loyal vereiner did his best to qraf' the contents of the horn at one try. The horn holds two and half litres. or just about four quarts of beer. Dr Remy. the kommersmeistcr, did the best. He emptied the horn after about five minutes steady drain ing Dr Tombo. ST. William Pfel. Gus tavus Younger and other shining lights oi the Verein were close upon Dr Rtmy's record in that order.
 That was on Monday evening. Few O.. tho members were talkative when they arrived at college yesterday.

ETHEL BARRYMORE.
Large and Fashionable Audience Sees
 Popular Actress.

There were not many in the aud:- ence last evening who were aware of the fact that Miss Ethel Barrymore was acting under strain, but such was the case. The evening before, af- ter the production in Bridgeport and scarcely before the curtain had de- scended, Miss Barrymore was carried in a faint to her dressing room and later to her hotel. For some weeks she has been playing under difficulties owing to an attack of illness, and it was feared at one time she might have to close her tour. Her will powe. however, has kept her brave and even cheerful under adverse circumstances Last evening at Polls she was greeted by warm and appreciative audience and while those present did not en- thuse greatly over the merits of the play itself. they did over the work of Miss Barrymore and an evenly bal anced and excellent company. It is q mel0drama. this new play adopted by Miss Barrymore. but it lacks the mag netism which should be given to a play produced bv such company. Xvi dently Miss Barrymore and her con- p"nv ro"1i"e that the production is not what 1t should be. and they also real- i7e. if Ona can judge from after cOnf- ment thai their work was apnrecinted because they were makin" the most of very difficult undertaking
