DEAN HULME WILL
LECTURE IN KELLOGG
POPULAR UNIVERSITY OF IDA
HO MAN WILL GIVE TWENTY
LECTURES THERE.

Tomorrow evening Dean Hume
Will begin series of twenty univer-
s1ty extension lectures in Kellogg.
The esteem in which he is held in
that town may be realized from the
fact that twenty persons have sub
scribed four hundred dollars with
which to meet the expenses of the lee
lures. Ten of the lectures will deal
with Europe in the Middle Ages; and
ten will have as their subject the Ac-
tivities of the Intellectual Glasses in
the Nineteenth Century. The former
has for many years been generally
regarded as one of the most popular
courses in the University. This year
there were nearly one hundred and
fifty applicants for the courses; but
owing to the limited capacity of the
Lecture room, only fifty of them were
able to gain admission. The latter
course was given for the first time
one of the most generally discussed
courses on the campus. In all the
residential houses of the students it
was frequently the subject of de-
bates
Dean Hume gave two talks at the
teachers institute held in Moscow;
stitute now being held at Wallace;
and also several talks at the insti,
tute soon to be held at Pocatello. lie
will also address the annual meeting
of the Women's Federated Clubs,
which this year is to be held at Coeur
d'Alene; and meeting of women's |
clubs that is to be held in Spokane.
The subject of several of these
talks is to be "Italy and the Italians"
Dean Hume spent half of his years |
leave of absence in that country. He |
lived for some time at each of seven |
Italian universities. In all those in
stitutions his book is well and favor
ably known, and it gained for him
admission to select intellectual cir
cles. In writing to him of the book,
Professor Giuseppe Salciloi the /
greatest master of the history of /
Italian law, whose books are used as
the texts in their subject not only
in Italy but also in France, speaks
thus eulogistically of the work. "The
more l study the contents of the book !
the more do | admire your mastery
of its very wide and important sub
ject You have developed the sub /,
ject in all it's aspects and phases, in l
all the countries that took part in '
the great movement, with admirable
learning. 1t is most felicitious COM I
position, carried out with great his {
torical accuracy 1t is a volume that G
does honor to American historical !
science, and that is to say much, be- t
cause the historical work of your ]
country now occupies very import b
ant position in International litera- c
ture. The complete and critical BIZ e
biography that you append to every h
chapter proves that you have assim- C
lated the scientific results achieved p
IN other countries, and from it there
S very much for every scholar to n
earn. l have told Signor Barbone G.

Introduced me to so fine a scholar
IS yourself, and have much pleasure F
n sending to you my high esteem 81
