ADAM BEDE TO BE GIVEN FOR
PENSACOLA EQUAL
SUFFRAGE LEAGUE.

There is a great deal of interest
in the announcement that Miss Ma
bel Biggart will give an interpreta-
ton of George Elliott's famous novel,
Adam Bede, on Thursday evening at
the home of the president of the
league, Miss Marguerite Ingraham,
at eight o'clock.
Miss Biggart was trained in dra-
matte art under Dion Boucicault, the
famous French playwright and ac-
tor, and also studied under Roberts of
New York. English and American
critics have pronounceG her work of
a very high order of excellence, the
English actor, Sir Beerbohm Tree,
whose recent appearance in the Uni
ted States has created so great an
interest, having found Miss Biggart's
work of such character as to have
offered her a role in one of his plays.
Miss Biggart is in Pensacola in the
interest of the Tropical Maya
zine, which is to be launched in Mo-
bile at an early date.

GIVE ME A VIOLIN.


(Lewis Worthington Smith, in Boston
Transcript
When l went down the winter street,
Cheeks tingling with the cold,
met man to hurt my heart,
Ragged and bent and old,
These things must be, the world is
full
Of sorrow crossed with sin,
But underneath his fimsy coat
He Rugged violin.
We are but dust, we pass to dust,
Our souls the thralls of clay,
Our bodies vesture that at last
Must drag them to decay,
Sometimes we do not mind the rents
That let winter in,
When out of a summer long ago
We hear a violin.
This is our conflict, age by age,
Hugging our spirits warm,
Shielding some sparks against the
rage
That drives us down the storm,
When I must walk with head bent
low,
Feeling my coat grow thin,
Let me believe the roses blow;
Give me violin.

STATE UNIVERSITY NEWS

The annual catalog of the Univers-
ity of Florida with announcements
for the coming year has just been
issued. It is volume of some 200
pages which gives full information
concerning the various activities Of
the University at Gainesville.
The first section describes the de-
partments and their equipment, and
various lines of student activities, and
the expense of attending the Uni
versity. Tuition is free to students
of Florida, and the cost of board is
lower than that at any similar in
stitution in the south. In the second
section the requirements for entrance
to the freshman class at the Univers-
ity are described, including a list of
the high schools of the state whose
graduates are admitted without ex-
animation. The graduate school and
the five colleges comprising the Uni
versity-College of Arts and Sci
ences, College of Agriculture, College
of Engineering, Teachers College and
the College of Law-are described in
detail, giving the various schedules
and the courses of study offered by
each department. An examination Of

ity of Florida is offering as good

established as can be secured in the
United States. 1t is very evident
that it is no longer necessary for
Florida boys to leave the state to Sc
cure the best training. Many young
men from other states are, in some
cases, appearing to appreciate the
University of Florida more than
Florida boys, for they are coming all
the way from Maine, New York and
other northern states to take advan-
tage of the instruction offered by the
University of Florida. The catalog
closes with a list of students, which
shows a remarkable increase in num-
bers during the last few years. In
all respects, the State of Florida has
much to congratulate itself upon in
the present condition and future pros
poets of this great institution.
Students are arriving in Gainesville
every day with the intention of en-
rolling in the summer session of the
University of Florida. This instruc-
ton is provided by special appropria-
ton of the legislature and is 'ontroll-
ed by the State Summer School board,
consisting of the State Superintend-
ent of Public Instruction, Hon. w. N.
Sheats, the President Of the Univers-
sity of Florida, DIR. A. A. Murphree,
and the President of the State College
for Women, DR.. Edward Conradi.
The faculty list at the University
includes IA of the best known teach
ers, including some members Of the
regular University faculty and others
selected from normal colleges and
high schools of the state. The school
at Gainesville win be in charge OF
DR.. A. A. Murphree and DR.. J. A

acting as dean. This school is open
to both men and women and is
especially designed for the teachers
of Florida to prepare them for better
work in their chosen field. Several
courses of college grade are offered
