Preludleed AGAINST Typewrlters.

The late Associate Justice Gray Of
the Supreme court was very eccentric.
Among his preiudices was a deep and
lasting aversion for a typewriter. That
machine did not come into general use
until Justice Gray was an old man and
he never became reConcled TO it. It
made him furious If a lawyer filed
with him a motion or other court pa
per typewriter. He invariably re-
turned IL with a brusque request that

how important g. might be. He never
neglected an opportunity 70 denounce
typewriters. The result OF his hatred
fer these machines was that he did
three times as much work as the other
justices.

A crowd Of about $50 persons gathered,

at its worst it means merely that we are

a new and stronger faculty. -.e" .

Of the university in active use. The only
serious ruins are those Of the buildings

arch, the chapel and the unfinished library
and the gymnasium. The last two are an
almost total loss and the construction wae

us that the Stanford buildings of the future
