THAT is correct" Frohman replied,
land will give my reason I think
that in New York there ara now about
fifty theaters. The people Of New

nor inclination 20 visit these theaters
and consequently only the great sue

1heatergoer. In the next eighteen
months I shall open a stock company
az the Lyceum- shall select good
actors and produce the best Of plays.
The people are gradually demanding

course in these days barely holds its supremacy

cal department of Princeton 428 students were
enrolled, as compared with o5 in the scientific de-

students as compared with AIS in the scientific

Princeton A. B., who years ago devoured his
Greek along with his food and drink.
During last year at Yale the students in the aca-

with o4s in the Sheffield Scientific School OF
Yale whereas twenty years ago the figures were
6I4 and 27I In "giddy" Dartmouth, a solid

from the farmer class, twenty years ago the
classicals outnumbered the scientihcs five to one,
whereas last year they were about equal in num-

The stories from large Western universities
