pr. Houston's Terse Argument.

The Houston address, while dealing primarily with another, although re- lated, subject, includes a terse argu- ment in favor of the urban university.
 ''The advantages of a city location for university are obvious" declares Dr. Houston in this address. "They lie not more in the large collections of available books and documents and in the interplay and friction of the minds of the strongest men of the nation, and in the frequent presence of the great men of the world, than in the existence of great institutions like courts manufacturing establishments, architectural monuments and under takings, and engineering enterprises. which make it possible for the student, and the professor as well, to keep abreast of the times, and to see the latest demonstrations of applied science"
 The paper pointing out in detail the advantages of the city for university is in part as follows:
 To begin with, the city itself is a great teacher-a teacher of knowledge which no formal class instruction affords, but which every student ought to receive
 For all divisions of social science. (Economics, Charities and Corrections, Education, Government and the physi- cal sciences Physics, Chemistry, Engi- neering), the city best contributes the material needed by the student Some of these studies are scarcely possible out side of 8 city Poverty, crime, and vice. and the means of dealing with them, can not be studied from books alone; the student must observe the facts at first hand, and these he can find only in a great town-there only can he find in sufficient numbers, living in their own districts, the classes of people to be studied and also the institutions for re- lieving them.
 The life of the city, with it's sharp contrasts of rich and poor, has been thought the chief danger of our free government If the study of these sub jects is to be of practical use, that study must take place in the midst of these puzzling and troublesome facts.
 In many subjects of study, the li- braries of the city supplement the library of a university. Large libraries nearly always specialize more or less: one is well supplied with certain books which others lack. The presence in a city of a number of large libraries is. therefore. a considerable advantage to the uni versity.

latter part Of August. At any rate, the
week has been one well flied for the
social butterfly

and costume ball, given at the Build
ing of Arts. Tuesday evening. which
was one Of the most elaborate costume
balls ever planned and carried out, and
was preceded by living pictures on a
scale never before given here.

ing the week, in fact the first impor-
tant engagement Of the summer, is that
of Miss Margaretta Biddle Porter OF
Philadelphia and Washington. Oldest
daughter of the late Col. John Biddle
Porter, and Ri Rev. Robert Goldman
Episcopal Bishop of Maine. Owing to
the recent death of Col. Porter, and the
consequent deep mourning of the fam
lily, the wedding will be a very quiet
present 1t will take place some time
in September at the Porter Bar HarboI
summer home, Wyandotte.
Miss Porter has been prominent In
the work Of the Episcopal Church and
has been a state officer of the Girls
Friendly Society. Bishop Goldman is
one of the leading Episcopalians in the
country and is highly regarded.
