TEXAS woMAN's COLLEGE NOTES.
On Friday evening the young la
dies Of the Texas Woman's College
gave very delightful entertainments
for thu library, which was decided
success both socially and financially.
The spacious parlors and halls had
received artistic touches from the
hands of the yaung ladies and many
pretty hooks and coy corners proved
very inviting TO the guests. Cut
flowers and pot plants everywhere
lent beauty TO the scene. Flags,
penn ants and banners evidenced the
College spirit on the occasion, and
the merry groups Of students proved
the fact that there is much fun TO be
found in college life. Delightful
music was feature OF the occasion
and added much TO the pleasure OF
the guests. During the evening a
dainty ice plate was served, after
which n refreshing cup Of coffee was
passed. Altogether the entertain
ment was one Of the prettiest college
social functions that Bryan has ever
enjoyed, and while noting the ease
Of the young ladies In their role as
gracious hostesses, one could not but
ontemplate the influence that the
Texas woman's College will have
on the social life of Bryan in all the
years 10 come. The guests voiced
with their adieus the hope that that
evening would find its counterpart
in the near future.
The Geo. Il. Butler Literary Soci-
ETY. held very interesting meeting
Thursday afternoon, at which q good
program was presented. All Of the
societies are doing good work. The
Mission Band has recently purchas-
ed an excellent collection OF twenty
one books on religious subjects. This
Is the nucleus Of large circulating
library on missionary and other re-
ligious subjects that the Band hopes
to have in the future.
Mr.. ]. T. HALEY is very great
addition TO the College faculty. In
tellectual, sincere, consecrated, he
has made a profound impression for
good on both the faculty and the
student body. AS devoted as the
College is to DIR. Butler, no ordinary
! man could in any measure ill his
place; the fact that Mr.. HALEY fills
1t so admirably, is a sincere compli'
= ment to both gentlemen. Mrs. Hal
, ley is expected TO JOIN the College
, family soon, and owing TO the fact
! that so many kind Communications
I as TO her sterling worth heve pre-
e coded her, her coming Is eagerly
awaited.

Professor Burr Says II Can Be Dug

Professor Burr Says II Can Be Dug
in Ten Years.
Washington, March 9.-Proiessor W.
A. H. Burr, Of New York, q member Of
the board of consulting engineers. ap-
peared before the senate committee on
interoceanic canals to discuss the type
of canal to he constructed across the
Isthmus of Panama. He said that
since the report wGs prepared, his re-
hections convince him more than ever
that a sea-level canal was more feasible
than lock canal.
The witness was examined at length
concerning the control of the Chagres
river, and declared that the solution
Of the problem presented was entirely
feasible. He declared he could see no
reason why sea-level canal should not
be constructed in ten years, as no
doubtful engineering feats were con-
templated in the majority plan.
The committee adjourned until 1890
o'clock tomorrow, when it is under
stood Professor Burr will attack the
wisdom of constructing canal of the
lock type provided for in the minority
report.

senators by direct vote of the people.
This is the second time this session he
has introduced this resolution, and in
each instance be offered resolutions

Washington, Mach 8. - The house
today passed the Indian appropriation
bill and then proceeded tn tangle itself
up over the bill to abolish the grade Of
lieutenant general in the army. The
result was an adjournment for lack of a
quorum after members had been locked
in the hall for half an hour and the
sergeant-st-arm had been scurrying to
the various hotels in search of mem
bers. The vote to consider the bill
showed an overwhelming sentiment in
its favor, and, as it is the pending busi-
ness under call OF committee, it will
probably be reached and passed in due
course.
