port Of two universities. In 1858 an
act was passed establishing one
university. In the meanwhile. the
lands which had been set aside for
the universities were sold and the
money from that Source which was
put inso The state treasury was USED
Tor military purposes during the
civil war. According to President
II. Y. Benedict, the recognized his
torian of the institution, there was
81 cents left in the University funo
at the close of the civil a In 1866
the legislature again considered the
matter Of establishing q university.
And part of the money which had
been used during the war period
was repaid by depositing Sl34,472 in
the state treasury TO the credit o.
the University fund. These bonds
were paid with interest in 1883,
and later the remainder Of the
money used during the war period
was repaid.
Limited Income
In 1876 the new constitution was
adopted. II contained a provision
giving the university one million
acres of land as an endowment, and
in 1881 the legislature passed the
enabling act establishing this state
institution. But actual putting into
effect Of this act did not take place
until 1883. by the completion and
opening of one wing Of the present
main building. The university came
into being largely in the belief On
the part of the people that IL would
not cost them anything. In the per-
manent fund was S650.000 whi,n
came from the sale Of the original
100000 acres. To the first m-Ililll
acres that the constitution set aside
the legislature added in 1888 a Sec
ond 1,000,0 600 acres. 1t was the pre-
vailing belief that the interest or
the $650,000 in bonds and the reve-
nue. from grazing leases OF the
1000, 900 acres, which really sur
veyed 1904, 900 acres, would bring
IN an annual revenue Of approx
imately S125,000, which annual
amount was then deemed ample for
The institutions financial needs.

versity income averaged only about

notes and Sill 900 from leases.
Royalties on oil production from

BY w. ID.

AUSTIN. Texas, Aug. 17.-Pros-
poets are favorable for more than
the usual 10 per cent increase Of
the enrolment OF students at the
University OF Texas for the coming
semester, which will be started on
It's way September 10 with the an
nual convocation Of freshmen.
Glasses will start September %. Mo-
only Is the University facing what
promises TO be another fine year Of
teaching in the various lines u
which it is devoted, but the insti-
tuition has finally entered upon a
building program which. in due
course. viii. it is expected. enable
the abandonment and removal from
the campus OF all the unsightly
Ehacks which for several years have
served for temporary housing pur-
poses. BesiSeS the auditorium-gym-
nasium building, which is now I'M
der construction and which was
made possible through the generous
donations Of former students. there
will soon be a large and modern
chemistry building and an addition
to the library building under way.
Other buildings are in early pros
pect.
Notwithstanding the great &C
complishments of the University of
Texas in the matter Of enriching
the educational and cultural life of
the people Of the state, it is inter-
esting to note that the institution
has never in the slightest sense been
a financial burden to the tax pay
ers. The development of its physi-
cal plant has come altogether from
its own financial resources. These
have been meager at times. ana the
enrolment OF students usually has
been in excess Of permanent build
ing Accommodations and this is
markedly true at this time.
Taxpayer Protected
In the original provision for the
establishment of a university Of tie
first class. the forefathers OF Tex
as evidently had uppermost III their
minds the freedom of the people OF
the state from any taxation for the
erection Of necessary buildings for
the institution. Even in their vision.
of Tie future they held to that, per-
haps not thinking that the Uni
versity would ever grow to a size
that would require any large ap-
preparation for its maintenance.
These facts were evident in the con-
stitutional and legislative acts pro.
vioing for higher education.
1t was nearly fifty years after the
first steps were taken for the estab-
Lshlnent Of q university that the
project came into realization. On
November 20. 1887, Kelsey P. Doug
las Of NacogdocheS, a member OF
the congress of the Republic u
Texas. introduced 6 bill to incor-
porate the University Of Texas. This
measure vas read for the first time
and got no further on the calendar.
A year later a law was passed ap-
propriating 100000 acres Of land out
OF the public domain for the sup

Women Detectives
Favored In London

LONDON. Aug. 17.-(P-The lady
detective is coming into her own in
London society, whose season is an
nually growing more elaborate.
More costly plate is used. more Jew
els are in evidence, and there are
more gate-crashers.
London h~ostesses have found that
the best safe guard to their func-
tons Is not a large flat-footed man,
but a svelte, chicly-gowned woman
who can mt,gle with the guests
and arouse Nc undue suspicion.
Most Of the women detectives
have their own business and their
own clientele They are well &C
quainted with the outstanding
members Of the petty thieyinE tribe
and can readily spot them on a
crowded BALLROOM floor around a
closelv-packed dinner table or at a
wedding whee costly gifts are
within easy zach of itching fingers.
