 The act incorporating the Southern University was passed by the General Assembly of Alabama January 26th. 1856. The Southern University has from the beginning been owned and controlled by the Methodist Church. and of three magnificent male colleges founded by Methodism in the State of Alabama, 1t is the only one that has been saved to the Church. It is the property in fee simple of the Alabama Conference. The Faculty and Trustees, aided by the friends of the Institution, purpose that 1t shall remain in point of power. the peer of any firstclass col- lege in the land.
 Ideal Location.
 Located at Greensboro. Alabama. a delightful town of near three thou sand inhabitants. noted for its marked Southern environment and refined so- ciety. the Southern University has ex- cellent intellectual and moral advan- tages. The town is well supplied with good artesian water, telegraph and tele- phone systems, electric lights and cher ted streets.

 Strong Teaching Force.
 We stand for culture, thoroughness and Christion manhood--an education ideal in character and Christian in spir- it.

 Scientific Department.
 Our chemical and physical laborato- ries have been overhauled and better equipped, so that we are now prepared to do better and more satisfactory work in this department than ever before. Recently the Trustees authorized the President to spend $1,500 for, additional improvements and apparatus, This with the Improvements already made puts our Science Department in excel lent condition.

PRESIDENT sTEvENsoN's ACTION
In Prohibiting Football at Coburn
Meet With General Appreciation.

The recent act of President George $.
Stevenson of Coburn Classical Insti-
tute in forbiddng the playing of foot
ball at the institute in the future has
called forth many sentiments Of appro-
baton in this city, in fnct, as far as
could be cleaned by a Journal repre-
sentative there is no adverse criticism
to be heard.
President Stevenson in speaking of
the subject said that 1.-The prohibition
of football ut the college was net a
matter of choice it was a necessity"
II. r. Durham. one of the trustees
of the institute. said: 81 had emphati
cally declared that IL the present game
Of football was not stopped at COhurn,
I would resign my office as one of the
trustees of the school,"
Other similar statements could be
quoted, too. showing the feeling that
has arisen in this city, in regard to the
game of football especially among Off
GERS Of the institute and other schools
is decidedly adverse to the so-called
sport.
The statement of William A. Cowins,
pho played on the Colby football team
during his four years course and was
captain of one of the most successful
teams Colby has ever turned out, is
particularly interesting. Mr.. CoWiEg
said: II never went into football
game in my life when I did not realize
that 1 was taking foolish chances OF
life and limb. A man never has any
idea rs to whether he will be injured
or not until the game is over. Were |
to take my college course again and
could do so consistently with my sense
of loyalty to my college. l would never
again enter a game of football"
The agitation against this game in
various parts of the country by the ac-
ton Of Pres. Stevenson has been fore
IDLY presented in this city, but I'LL are
in accord in saying that it was wise
olecaution for the good of the scoocl
and that football, as it is played, to-
day. while possibly not q brutal sport,
is dangerous.
