"Dora Thorne" dramatized novel of
the present season, marks new de-
parture in melodrama. The story of the
play follows the book accurately enough
to permit the use of the title, but the
playwright has chosen the incidents
and happenings with excellent taste,
and woven them into play that is in
teresting in the extreme. The audience
cannot help but engage themselves SYM
pathetically with every turn of the
fortunes of "Dora Thorne', girl whom
the English would call Glow born" who
won the affection of and married the
dukes son. The resultant plot may be
mapped out, but the treatment of her
natural girlish exhuberance in contrast
to the habitual reserve and repression
of the manner aristocratic, must. be seen
to be appreciated. A large share of the
success of the performance is due to
/ the cast, which is strong throughout,
including as it does, Miss Cuba Nib in
the name part Miss Maud Truax, who
causes all the trouble, and that sterling
actor of old men characters, George
! Robbins. 'Dora Thorne" will be seen
at Van Werden's opera house Wednes-
uay evening, March IA.

CONTINUANCE OF MILLAGE TAY
FOR BUILDINGS.

CONTINUANCE OF MILEAGE TAX
FOR BUILDINGS.
This, the regents say, is matter
Of investment. The state is not being
asked to expend money, but to invest
1T in the permanent equipment of an
enterprise that will yield large re-
turns in all time to come. The money
put into the erection, repair, and
Improvement of buildings is devoted
to permanent additions to the plant
to the fixed capital" of the insti-
tuition.
The University has had such tax
for several years, and it's results have
amply justified it. The University
hospital was the first building erected
with this fund. In the first year or
two of the levy, the regents adopted
general plan for the location of fut-
ure buildings on the campus, and a
definite policy of erecting only sub
stantial stone, freproof buildings, uni
form as to general architecture. The
hall of Liberal Arts, a beautiful
building of Bedford stone, freproof,
and unexcelled for its purposes any
where in the country, is monument
of the building tax. The two new
medical buildings, thoroughly modern
in all their appointments, came next
then the Armory and Athletic Pavil-
lion; and then the hall of Natural
Science, now being built. The hall
of Natural Science is on the main
campus, and is the counterpart of the
hall of Liberal Arts. These two halls,
in classic architecture, thanking the
old Capitol, will make a beautiful and
imposing main front for the Univer.
sity.
But substantial structure of this
sort means costly structure and fewe,
buildings than might otherwise b
erected. The present tax is about t.
expire, and the work is not done
Many buildings are still needed, ant
it is for these that the regents ash
lLe YAK eAIeNQeQ.
ASSEMBLY HALL.
A permanent assembly hall, large
enough for the entire student body,
is great need, so that all studen
assemblages can be held within the
University, instead of being obliged te
resort to the inadequate halls of the
town.
INCREASE OF SUPPORT FUND.
The need of increase in this currem
expense fund is imperative if Iowa
is to continue to hold her high rank
among the state universities of the
northwest. This is especially empha-
sized when inquiry is made into the
resources of such representative in
situations as Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Illinois, and Michigan.
! In making this request, too, atten-
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1906-03-15

tion is called to the increased attend
lance. Two wears ago the attendance
at the University was below 400.
Last years increase brought it to
1860, while this year over 200 more
students have been added to the rolls,
and the number will approximate 1900.
More students means increased cost,
especially now when colleges and uni
versities realize that the most efficient
work is done in small classes, with
large opportunity for personal contact
between instructor and student.
PURCHASE OF ADDITIONAL
LANDS.
The purchase of additional lands for
the campus is matter in which
every student, alumnus, and friend of
the University is very deeply inter
ested. The last two legislatures have
made appropriations for this purpose,
but, as in the matter of buildings, the
work is only partly done.
The University now owns all of the
river front for four blocks, directly in
front of the University and the main
part of the city; it owns the four
blocks of the old Capitol campus; and
the hostpial campus, one and one half
blocks; and part of the land between.
The appropriation now asked is to
complete the connection between these
three tracts of property, so that the
unity and plan of the whole may ap-
pear; and SO that plans for parking
and identifying the campus, long held
in allegiance, may be carried out.
1t becomes apparent by looking
carefully into the facts that in maxi
ing the requests set out, the regents
have merely made statement of the
present, urgent needs OF the Univer-
sity, as those who are nearest and
know the University most intimately
see those needs. If it should seem
to any one that great deal is asked,
the only answer is that it takes q
great deal to build up and properly
carry on the work of University
and this is what Iowa has undertaken
to do.
Iowa has every reason to be PROUD
of her University. Founded by the
first General Assembly, it has beer
built up through all the history of the
state until it has gained deserved re-
cognition among the educational insti-
tutions Of the country. The increased
funds appropriated to the Universit,
in the past few years have all beer
expended carefully and judiciously
and the general approval of the re
suits attained has been expressed ii
the recent large increase of students
The University is situated in
small city which, in its beauty an,
the beauty of its surroundings, and il
its freedom from many of the divert
ing activities OF a larger city, is a
ideal university town. The Univer
sity's work is commanding respec
everywhere for its real soundess an
scholarly character. And the friend
of the S. U. l. look forward with a
assurance that certainly is wei
founded, to the time in the not ia
distant future when Iowa will be on
of the great universities of the coun
try. excelled by none of her siste
Estate universities.

Institution
MORE BUILDING NEEDED
The Liberal Policy of the Past has
Been of Greatest Value and
should be Continued

One of the most important matters
before the General Assembly now in
session, and one which is attracting
statewide interest, is the matter of
the support of the State University at
Iowa City. Two bills which have
been introduced into the legislature
provide for certain appropriations
asked by the Regents for furthering
the work and increasing the efficiency
of the University; and the many
alumni and ex-students of S. U. L.,
as we'll as all friends of higher educa-
uion in the state, are greatly inter-
ested in their passage.
The askings are for three general
purposes; for carrying on the work Of
the University with proper efficiency
for keeping up the present material
equipment of the institution in build
ings and apparatus; and for making
certain very essential additions to this
MARTIAL equipment and to the campus.
These requests, as summarized in the
biennial report of the regents, and as
embodied in the bills referred to, are
as follows:
Continuance of Millage Tax for
buildings for five years.

INDIAN SCHOOLS.

The Cherokee national schools will
close this week. The Cherokees have
always taken a great interest in edu-
cational matters and have spent mill
ions of dollars since they came to
the Indian Territory in educating their
young men and women. The result
has been that they have attained prom
inence not only in the territory bu-
at washington as we'll The Cherokee
male and female seminaries at Tail
equah are the handsomest school
buildings in the Indian Territory.
The schools of all the five civilized
tribes under the new Curtis act will
of the secretary of the interior and
rules and regulations governing them
have been prepared and will soon be
promulgated. 1t is a well known fact
that the Indians of Indian Territory
have spent more per capita for educa-
tional purposes than any of the states
of the union. The present superin-
tendent of Indian schools for Indian
Territory is the Honorable John u.
Benedict and to assist him he has i
school supervisor for each of the ma,
lions. 1t is not generally known, put
the Indians pay their own school ex-
penses from tribal funds. In the Choc-
taw and Chickasaw nations all royal
ties on coal are used for educational
purposes. There should be no excuse
for any Indian not getting a good ed
ucatiOn The schools are free to them
A high standard of efficiency should
be maintained in the school service
at this time as funds are always avail
able to pay teachers and their sala-
ries, as a rule, are as good as those
paid in the states. Now that the fed
eral officials have complete charge Of
the Indian schools it is expected a
marked improvement will take place.

for the purpose of uniting the in
effective sentiment in favor of water
ways improvements into such an ex-
preston as will afford congress au-
thority to make appropriations OF at
least $50, 600 every year. That
expression is 10 come next month at
the convention here of the national
rivers and harbors congress. Headed
by Representative Ransdell of Louis
lana, the organization has been bust
~ engabed for some time in putting
before all sections of the country
the necessity of getting together, and
the movement has gained general
support One of the reasons of this is
the argument that if railroad rates
cannot be expected to go much lower
relief lies in the development of
waterways.
The friends of the project declare
that fifty millions annually is a small
sum compared to what foreign nations
spend in the same field and that the
struggle for control of the world 3
markets demands that the American
shipper be given the most favorable
opportunities in the way of transpor
tation.

UP-To-DATE QUEENS.

1t was Queen Amelia of Portugal
who first discovered how queens can
be beautiful if they want to be. UP
to her time queens sat in their pal
aces and grew stout, and when they
went to drive it was in a great Dig
carriage built especially for then.
Now the queen drives in natty little
Sftai like that of any of her subjects,
and when she sits in the palace it IS
with open windows and plenty of good
air
Queen Amelia introduced outdoor
sports for queens She took to bath
ing and she learned to swim. She
took up tramping and learned how 20
do long distance walking. She began
to live out in the open, and she took
beauty baths and rubbed her com
plexion with beauty lotions. So01
she regained her good looks and be-
came pretty once more.
Marguerite of Italy made up hel
mind she would never become dow
ager, and she never has. She climbs
mountains and she shoots and she en-
joys nothing quite as much as getting
lost up in the icebergs. She lives out
of-doors, and she gets younger every
day. Her automobile races are fam
Gus, and she hopes to do America
from ocean to OCEAN in big touring
