\Vas born October 20, r8so, in Albemarle Co., Va . Entering \Yashing ton a nd Lee U ni\·ersity h e was graduated with the degrees of :\I. A . and B. L . \'l hile an underg raduate he was editor-in-chief o f the ''Southern Collegian" a nd won two of the Robinson Prize 1\Iedals. In 1869 he was made Assistant P rofessor of English and l\Iodern L ang uages. In 1873 he became Assistant Professor of Law, a nd in r874- Adjunct Professor of Law. In 1875 he was appointed to the chair of Common and Statute Law , \\'ashington and Lee eniversity. He is a member of the Sigma Chi Fraternity. Professor Graves is a m ember of the American Bar Association, and one of the im­ portant standing committee on L egal Education a nd Admission to the Bar. He also belongs to the Virg inia State Bar Association, being a member of its committee on Library and Legal Literature. On August 2, 1893, he read before a meeting of the latter association, at \Vhite Sulphur Springs, a masterly paper , entitled "Extrinsic 16 E\·idence in Respect to \\' rit te n J nstruments," whic h was printed in the report of the a-;sociation, and reprinted in the " American Lawyer" and " The American Law Re\"iew." In the " \ 'irginia Law J ournal' ' for April, 1S .So . is an article by Professor Graves. entitled " Dy ing Without Issue under \ ' irginia Statutes,'' and for October, 1Sil3, another on '' The Effect of a Definite Failure of ls,;ue on the Operation of the Rule" in Shelley's Case. Jn 188o were published Professor Gra,·es' "~ o t es on Real Property, for the use of Stude nts," and in 1894 his " Summary of the Law of Real Property, for the use of stu dents, in connection with t he Second Book of Black· s tone· s Commentar ies. ·' Professor (;ra,·es is also associate editor of the " \ ' irg inia Law Register."

3amc~ B. 11)atTi~on was born at Pass Christian . l\I iss., in rS-tS. The son of wealthy parents, he had e\·ery advantage of early educa­ tion , and already gave ev idence of the scholarly a nd literary tastes th 1t ha,·e since disting uished him, when the fall of Xew Orleans sent h is family as refugees to Thomas,·ille, Ga. After the close of the war he resumed h is preparatory studies fo r the Uni\'ersity of \ ' irginia, where he re mained two years. At this institution he pu rsued the study of Greek with especial success under the teaching of Professor Gilderslee\·e. After lea,·ing the Uni\·er· sity of \ ' irg inia be taug ht one year in Baltimore, and then went to E urope where he remained two years. study­ ing at Bonn and Munich . Fpou his return to America, in 187 1, he was elected to the chai r of Latin and ill odern Languages in Randolph l\I r,con College. In 1875 he was elected to the chair of English a nd :\Iodern Languages in \ ' anderbilt l' niversity. This h e declined. but in t he fo llowing year accept eel the corresponding chair in \\'ashington and Lee l'niversity. to which he had been elected without application. As an author Professor Harrison has achie\'ed an enviable pos ition , being one of the most fa mous and sn c­ cessful of the large class of Southern writers that h a,·e come into prominence since th e war. In connection \Yith his professional work he has written '' French Syntax ," "Easy French Lessons,'' an edition of" H eine's Reise­ b ilder ,'' and an " Ang lo- Sax on Dictionary .. , H e is the origi nator of the "Library of Anglo-Saxon Poetry,'' which includes " Beowulf," Exodus a nd Daniel '' E lene,·· " Andreas.'' and Zu pitza's" Old and Middle E nglish Reader .. , In this work he had as his collaborators, Professors Hunt, Ken t, Barkerville, Sharp a nd ;\ IacLean. " Beowulf," of which the fourth edition is j ust out, has been especiall y well recei,·ed, haYi ng been adopted as a \ I text-book in Oxford and other English unin~rsities, and n.•ry generally in America. As a result of his tra,·els and studies in Europ~ we have two books of charming sketches, •' Greek Yiquettes·· and ·• Spain in Profile,'' and a'· History of Spain. " Professor H arrison was selected to write the first of the now popular " Story of the Xations" series of histories, the "Story of Greece.'' The first published book was a Yolume ol reprinted essays entitled " A Group of P oets a nd their H aunts.'' But, howeYer important these works appearing as separate books, it is probable that Professor Harrison's best and most scholarly work has been done for the columns of dictionaries and th e ,-arious critical and scientific journals, that , if collected, would form many Yolumes. For three years he was engaged as etymologist in '' The Century Dictionary," working in conjunction with the late Profes~o r Whitney and Dr. Scott, and for a like period he was employed by Funk and \Vagnoll s as definer in the departments of German Rhetoric, History, Art, Archre­ ology, :\fythology and H eraldry, for the recently published " Standard Dictionary.'' ~um e rou s technical articles from his pen haye appeared in the" American J ournal of Philology, and an article 0 11 '·Negro Er,glish," published while in Germany, in " Ang lia,' attracted unusual attention from English scholars, and is often quoted. Besides these there h a,·e been contrihuted to ·'The Critic,'''· The Nation, " " The Independent," " The Literary \\'oriel," and like periodicals, many book reyiews and criticisms on Yarious literary topics. Such magazines as " Lippin­ cott's'' "Appleton's. ·' and " The o,·erland :\Ionthly,'' contain many of his miscellaneous sketches of trayel, lectures and re\'iews. \Ve man·el at the industry and scholarship that haw e nabled a teacher burdened with the conduct of so large a department as Professor H arrison 's, to accomplish so much literary work of lastiug worth; but he has not confined his professional acti yity to his classroom a t \\'ashington and Lee l'ni,·ersity. He delh·ered a conrse of ten lectures in Anglo-Saxon Poetry at J ohns H opkins l'ni\'ersity, and his annual public lectures are eagerly looked forward to by all those privileged to hear them. He is a member and the organizer of the l\ fodern Lan­ g uage Association. But Professor H arrison's literary work is by no means limited to critical and scientific subjects. Besides those publications of lighter vein that ha,-e been mentioned aboye, he has written occasional short stories and fre­ quent little po~ms that sparkle out unexpectedly in the columns of the journals to "·hich he contributes. These latter are characterized by a wealth of YiYid imagery that is at times almost Or-iental. Professor H arrison recei,·ed the degree of LL. D. from R a n do lph-~Iaco n Coll ege, and that of Litt. D. from Colmnbia Colleg-e, 1\e\\' York. H e has receiyecl tempting offers of professorships in such institutions as Tularre University and the lnh·ersity of Texas, but we all earnestly h op~ that he is firmly fixeci in ' Lexington and the Faculty of our Alma :\Tater. ] ,'i $i~nc ~ {t. morclmt~

Was boru in Winchester , \ 'a., Dec. 2-J., 1823. H e was prepared for college at Richmond Academy, from which he went to the Uni\·ersity of Virginia. where he was graduated in I8-J.-J. , as Bachelor of Law. He immediately began to practice his profession in \Vinchester, thoug h with but little success at fi rst. In the presidential el ections of 1852 and 1856, he sen·ed as an elector on the Democratic ticket and was elected Attorney General of \ ' ir­ ginia in May, I8 57, to fi ll an unexpired term , and was re-elected in 1859 and 1863. It was while holding this office, just before the war, that he gaye his fa mous opinion holding that the U nited States mail could be opened by State officials upon warrant from a competent court, in order to pre\·ent the dissemination of hurtful and reyolu_ tionary documents. Being dispossessed of his office by the result of the war, he again began the practice of law. In 1870 he was elected Professor of Equity and Constitutional L aw in \\'ashington and Lee Uninrsity. H e continued to occupy this chair till 187-1-, when he was elected to Congress, of which he was a member till I887. 20 For eight years he was a memher of the \\'ays and :\leans Comm ittee, of which he was chairman for a short time. H e was chairman of the Judiciary Committee in the Forty-eighth a nd Forty-ninth Congresses. \\'hile a member of Cong ress J\Ir. Tucker exerted great influence OYer the deliberations of that body. H is most famous speeches are those made in reference to the Tariff, the Electoral Commission Bill, the Constitutional Doctrine as to the count of the Electoral \'ote, the H awaiian Treaty of 1876, the Federal Elections Bill, in r 879, and Chinese Immigration, in 1883. H e was also the principal factor in securing the de feat of the fa mous Blair Bill. In 1889 he \\"as elected Professor of Equity and Commercial Law, a nd of Constitutional and International Law, in \\'ashington and Lee LTniversity. Mr. Tucker is an orator of great power and generally recognized as the first authority on Constitutional Law in America . H e has, beside innumerable political speech es, deli,·ered many public addresses that ha\'e been generally noticed and widely published. The most fa mous of these are probably those deli,·ered at Saratoga , in r877, before the Social Science Association, and at New H a,·en, before the \ 'ale Law School, 1887, and the t\\·o great addresses before the American Bar Association at Saratoga, August. rSg:?. on " British Institutions and American Constitutions.'' and at l\Iilwaukee, August, rSgJ, as President of the Associa­ tion, to which office he had been elected the preceding year. The ovation which }.lr. Tucker receh·ed upon the delh·ery of hi~ recent address before the \ ' irginia Bar Association at Richmond, prO\·es that the students of \\'ashington and L ee are not alone in thinking that "Old Ran" has the bigge~t head and the biggest heart in all the land. ::\Ir. Tucker recei\'ed the degree of LL. D. from Yale in 1887. H e now has in preparation a work on Constitutional Law, the publication of which is eagerly awaited.

'F0n~· :'\ the year 17 3:!, making hi s way down the vall ey of Virginia towards the mountains, ~t:' r. ~ whose rugged o utlines reminded him of his native land, a strange figure might han~

:; J1 been set~ n. 1--1 e is tall, well built, stern of countenance, and is clad in a buckskin suit. · ' - Across his back is flung a long rifl e, in his ri ght hand is clasped the sword of j ustice, in his left is the Bible and on his brow is the ca p of mercy placed there by the wrongs he has suffered across the waters. S cotch Irish is his name. Befo re this fi g ure's resolute tread every thing gives way and before long the curling smoke tells of the cabin 's site. :'\ow in thi s cabin every evening, when the clay's work is over the children are gathered to learn from their parents such rudiments of euucatiun as is possible. T heir fathers were imbued with the doctrine of John Knox, who taught that the way to perpetuate Christianity was to foster it in the rising genera­ tion. The fi reside school did \'ery well for a whi le, but it was not lo ng before some methou of obtaining a more extensive knowledge was needed ; so in 1749. two miles southwest of the site of Greenville, in Augusta County, and near the interlaci ngs of the head springs of the Shenandoah on the eastward and of the Ja mes river on the \V estward. under the direction of R obert Alexander, 1\ I. A.. , of Trinity Colleg e, Dublin, Augusta Academy s prung into existence and became the foundation stone for \\'ashing ton and Lee U ni versity, thus making thi s honored in stitutio n next to the oldest in \ Tirginia. 1t is an in stance worthy of note th at within a few miles of this little school the ·• F ather of his Country" was about this time, busily engaged in surveying, little think· ing that the time would come when the offspring of the lug cabin academy would do honor to hi s name. It was under its very walls that \Vashin g ton developed into a man . . Howe\·er the tim e came when it was found necessary to change its location, and in 1 774 it was moved to 1\It. Pleasant, near F airfi eld in Rockbridge County. H ere it lost its old name and 27 adopted the appellation of its site. School life then was very different from that of modern times. The students attended, clad in buckskin, with their rifl es across their arms. The building was used for nothing except to recite in a nd the shade of the surrounding trees gave shelter to those wishing to study between recitations, while the stump of a fall en monarch of the forest would serve as a desk. l\lt. Pl easant Academy under the circumstances became very well provided for. It is interesting to note with what small advantages our forefathers attained such excellent educa­ tions. The apparatus consisted of a small telescope, a twelve inch g lobe, a solar mi croscope, a n air pump, an electrical machine, a barometer, a H adley quadrant, and surveying instruments. The library consisted of two hundred and ninety volumes. This was absolutely all they had, yet some of the students manag ed to learn enough to enable them to hold with honor places of prominence in after life. Two of them became judges of the Supreme Court, four were members of the State Legislature, four entered the Cong ress of the U nited States while one was sent as minister to F ranee. O n May 6, 1776, two months before the D eclarati on of Independence, at their first meeting after the battle of Lexington the Board of Trustees renamed the academy Liberty H all , a nd gave it the rig ht to call itself the child of Freedom. H owever, again in 1 777 it was seen fit to move and eig hty acres of land near Old Timber Ridge Church were selected for its use. H ere, under the g uidance of \Villiam Graham, in a b uilding twenty-eight by twenty-four feet and a story and a half hi gh, it prospered fo r a while. The tui tion exclusive of books and clothing was £10, 1 o shillings-not much less tha n it is to-day. But the war of the R evolution was having its effect on the people and affairs fi nally became in such condition that in 1 ;So the school had to suspend. \Vhen freedom was to be struggled for, th e sons of Liberty H all could not be idle. They would attend to the British, then would it be time to consid er themselves. \Vhen Tarlton with his victorious forces was making hi s way to R ockl1 sh Gap to invade the Valley, we hear of ~Ir. 1Rnins of 'JLibcrt~ 1bnll. jl3nrncl\ in lS02. G raham himself shoul dering hi s rifle and ri ding to do guard duty at the Gap, and foll owing his resolute lead were ma ny of hi s pupils. Not until the last gun of the long struggle. had been fi red , does the school seem to have been taken especial notice of, but in 1785 it was moved to l\ lulberry Hill, near its present site. This had to be done o n account of l\lr. G raham, who li ved in L exing to n and found it too inconveni e nt to have to drive to Timber Ridge. H ere at first the buildings were also of wood. The first commencement in the history of the in stitution was held on the fourteenth of S eptember of the fi rst year of its existence o n its new site. There were twelve g raduates who took the degree of Bachelor of A rts. Fro m this time it prospered, and in 17 93 the Trustees were enabled to erect a stone build ing to take the place of the wooden ones. \Ve cannot help but honor \Villiam C ravens, its builder, when we see that his work was substantial enoug h to stand to th e present time. H ad fire not destroyed the house it woul d doubtless be as ready for habitati o n now as ever before. \Ve are told that the students in those days were wi ck ed and unruly. \Ve can doubtless sympathi ze with them. It will perhaps be interesting to know that then as now the day was begun with . T he closin g exercises consisted of decl amati o n, and it was the custom whenever the professor entered for the students to ri se and g reet him with a bow. There were two sessions and the vacati on consisted of a sing le month . Nicknames were also prohi bited. In 1 796. at the soli ci­ tation of the T rustees, 'Vashi ngton made a do nati on of his shares of stock in the J ames River Company and on the retirement of that stock the Virg inia L egislature bound itself to pay to \Vashington Coll ege (it received its na me along wi th the donati on) six per cent. interest on $50,000 annuall y, forever. From its fi rst commencement up to 18oo there were o nly three who took degrees. A nd we who have to labor so now to receive a diploma, look with wo nder on the ease with which A . B.'s were received then. It seems that li ttl e more than a mere appli cati o n was necessary. But fickle Fortune in 1802 (or some say, wicked students), wrapped the s to ne 3D buildings in Ha mes and left only the r ui ned wall s which now stand so picturesque on :\ lulberry Hill. Then the College was moved into Lexin g ton anJ conducted in a buil ding situateJ close to wh ere Dr. John A . Graha m lives now. In 1803 the present site was procured and buildings erected, one wh ere Newcomb H all stands, and anoth er where the low buildin g is now on the other side of " Paradisl'." In this year the Law J epartment was also added, havin g Judge Carrington as its professor. Th es~ buildi ngs were not substantial and others soon had to be built. F irst the main building, wh ich holds the statue of George \Vashing ton was erected. There was a balcony just belo w where the second story windows are 11 0w, but it had to be removed because when it became necessary fo r the Professor to chastise a boy he would often elude the reverend gentlema n's hand by t1ee in g to the porch and dodg ing into the hall. The wings were added to t h~ main buildi ng at a later date. The examinations during the fi rst years of the existence on the present grounds were also merel y perfunctory. The Trustees woul d examin e all of the classes in one day anJ then judg-ed mostly by sounJ, as they did not knO\v enough to detect an error, and if the student but wen t g libly on, they inferred that hi s knowl edge was su fficient. But things have very materi ally changed since then, as the class of nin ety-five can testify. In 1830 the honor system was estab­ lished, which seems to have been very much deplored by the g entlL-me n in charge of the institution at the time, but whi ch now has the effect of entirely banishing practices over which, at the most. the professors could have onl y partial control. A t the outbreak of the Civil \Var the g reater part of the students were fo rmed into a military company call ed " The Liberty H all Volunteers," anJ captain eJ by Prof. James J. \Vh ite, entered the Confederate services and were assig ned to the celebrated Stonewall Brigade. It foll owed the fortunes of the army of 1'\orthern Virg inia and gain ed its full share of g lory. In June, 1864, General David Hunter entered Lexin g ton, and \Vashing ton Coll ege was sack ed, its library scat­ tered and its apparatus destroyed. \ Ve are g lad to say that the U nited States has recently made full reparati on for this vandal deed. A fter the war was O\'er the cunoitio n of the institution was \'ery discouraging, but the Trustees determined to reopen its doors and do the best they could. They elected General Robert E. Lee President, and he, thinking that he could do no nobler work fo r his country than 31 direct its youth, accepted. U nder him began an ~ra of great prosperity. Students flocked to the college, many additions to the endowments were received, new professorships were added, the standard was raised, grounds, buildings and appliances of instruction were improYed and a Chapel and a president's house erected. G en. Lee entered on his new work S eptember 1 Sth, 1865. From this time on the work of this institution has been successful. After Gen. Lee's death, October 12th, I Sj o , the name of the College was changed for the last time. Re-christened \Vashington and L ee University. it is the hope and prayer of students and Alumni, that the venerable institution may continue e\'er to increase in power and usefuln ess, and stand among American universities a worthy monument to two of the g reatest men and noblest liYes that grace the pages of Am~ri ca n history. \V. l\Ic. l\1.

HERE is nothing new under the sun ; so, gentle reader, if you expect anything orig inal in this history, you T will be disappointed. \Ve are a fi ne class (we say it modestly, lacking the usual confidence of the k now·all Senior), but then all g raduating classes are fin e bodies fo r all their historians say so, and you know that History never deig ns to tell fa lsehoods. H owever, having im pressed this fact, namely that we gi\·e promise of all being great men, we will proceed. A nd now we discover our fi rst d ifficulty. Shall we commence ten , eight, six or four years back. The records alas, are faithful , but as we are wr iting history we shall disregard thei r testimony, and without consulting- them , start with the year '9 1- '92. \Ve pray you h a\·e pity, sympathetic reader , or if you are not sympathetic, heartless one, turn your eyes from this page, for a fi g ure clad in bran new clothes, wearing a hat so new he is conscious of it, proud in the possession of a new valise anclne"· trunk, steps from the cars to the platform with a man-of·the-\vorld expression which tells the careful observer that this personage never having been away from home before, intends to hide this fact under an assumed dignity. H e stands around knowing everything except \vhat to do next, when he is accosted by a gentleman whose suavi ty overcomes him. This oi ly personage, after busyi11g himself much with the newcomer's luggage and future b o~udin g- h o u se, introduces him effnsiwly to se,·eral of his friends standing by , then suddenly exclaims: " Did I introduce you to :\Ir. Presum ptive Ball President? " '' Xo!" " \\"ell I want you to meet him . H e has more money, is better looking, is smarter and dances better than any other man in college." You are awed at the mention o f such a digni tary, and feel as if you would like to worship at his s hrine. 1\Ir. College Politician . reading your mind, immediately gives you the opportunity, which, being accepted by you , puts that gentleman in such a good humor that he Yows eternal friendship, makes a note and mentions the fac t th at your word is g iven , and that you are pledged. Until the election he notices you occasion- · all y; a fter that event his pledge of eternal friendship is fo rgotten. T he F reshman hears this name applied to him in tones of scorn and pity; he meets the boys at his " Ranch," is taken to the Y. l\I. C. A., "set up," gi\·en a li ttle book contai ning u s ~ ful information concerning '• Purgatory" and '' Paradise," and is taken care of in general. Ay, too much attention is paid him. H e goes to Chapel the first morning (does he eYer go a ft erwards?) and a feeling of awe O\'ercomes him. T he prayer reminds h im of his -!3 ube "Cnlic."

44 home, the swelling, rolling tones of the great organ ca use a great lump to rise in his throat and he would cry if he did not fear the remarks of his companions. As it is he winks hard to keep back the tears, glances np and sees silently lying in the alcoye, eyer and eloquently teaching how to live a grand life, the recumbent statue of Gen. Lee. Bnt it was not long before the seryices were oyer, and our freshman stands before the Chapel. listening to the greetings of last year's friends. The Campus with its S\\'elling knolls and whispering trees reminds him of the ancient gro,·es i11 which learning was taught. Some kind, patronizing ''old man" points out George \\'ashington and tells wonderful tales of H arry Lee and Albert Sidney's "scrapes," ringing in eyery now and then some thrilling . deetl of his own, which makes the new man wonder if he will ever be endowed with such prowess. And now a group of wisacres, posing for the benefit of the poor Fre!'hman begin to talk and he. wishing to learn wisdom , presses closer to this fount, for surely it can ha,·e no other origin. Striking an attitude one says; '' l\Iy ! fellows, how we will ha\'e to leaye the 'calic' alone, 'plug' and 'cram' if we do not wish to ' flunk .'" (Out of the sentence he understood only one word-'cram.' (H e ate at the !'ame table with him.) Another spoke" 'Old Nick' certainly did 'stick it to us' at final last year, but instead of 'pulling the bull' as I expected, I rode a 'pony.' 'knocked his eye out' and came very near 'maxing' him.'' By this time the freshman was nearly O\'ercome but, when a third spoke: •'I 'ran on' the professors too much last year. \Yhy boys, don't you know I 'cut' ·Old Alex' seyen times last term and 'rushing calic' was the cause of it, we (it is admitted that the freshman was no less a personage than the historian of this glorious cla5s) were dumbfounded.' ' Still he \Yas a litlle man, seeming to us too small to do much damage to a professor e\·en if h e had 'rnn on' him, and we thought that a calic mnst be a Yery tiny plaything to be 'mshed' by him, while the mildness of his glance seemed to lack the fire our dime no\·el hero ahYays had when he drew blood. \Ve were bewildered by this jargon of wisdom, but \\'hen some learned friend assured us that these words \Yere of H ebrew origin , we were speechles-;, though somewhat cheered by his opinion that "If you are as smart as you look, H ebrew won't be Yery hard and you'll soon get 'on to it. ' You know we study the J ewish language as a pastime." H ow learned he was, as he ga,·e this information and also \'Olunteered that "If yon wish to 'get in' with the professors, you had better 'cram ,' (t hat's H ebrew for m emorize) the catalogue,'' and how kind we thought him as he promised to gi\'e some of his valuable time to hearing us repeat it! T o i\e\Ycomb H all we then \\·ent, matricnlated, met our future preceptors, a nd became fully launched upon our College career. By the end of the year it is feared that we knew " H ebrew" better than we did Latin or -t 5 Greek, still oar experience hau exempted ns from the obnoxious title of Freshmen, and we considered onrseh·es men of the world. For the next two years we belonged to no especial class, our identity was lost in the general Student Body. In this intermediary time we lived, in the main, a happy life, building many air castles some of " ·hich we ha\·e already seen ,·anish. The Literary Societies we flooded with eloquence ; some of us, \Y o nd e ri~g ,,·hat made our mouths so dry and our mo,·ements so awkward, haye attempted to proye to the multitude assem· bled in the Chapel that excellence of oratory had its culmination in us. But alas! instead of holding the attention of our hearers we were conscious of many feminine ,·oices, each jealous of the sp :=a ker, talking all at the same time and for once we would fa in h3.Ye said '·Get thee behind us, calic." Our class claims the credit, and I do not think it will be denied them, of h aYing so trained the Lexington police force that they are the best sprinters in the "C"nited States. They owe ns a great debt, " ·bich we fear willne.-er be paid. During the midnight hour \\'e ha,·e ,·isited the Coll ege cupola, to see that nothiug was the matter with the bell clapper, and as the time for the boat race drew near, wearing red or blue, shouting H arry Lee or .-\lbert Sidney as our battle cry, ha\"e engaged in the stn1,g-gle to see which colors ''Old George" should support next morning, and as according to an unwritten code, enmity must ne\'er result from these fights, "'e greeted our foes of the night before with a pleasant "Good morning, d--n you. " Six times ha,·e '"e met our n eighbors the cadets in deadly strife and each has a captured club that he keeps as a Yalued som·enir of these pleasant occasions. As Seniors, we were dignified, and tried to act as if we possessed more knmY iedge than we were conscious of having. As we walked along the streets mentally quoting(?) bad words, which some \Yicked indi\·idual had spoken in our innocent presence, because the wind was wrapping our gowns about our limbs, we "·ondered at the ease and grace with which the fair one we were pursuing up the street handled her garments. Of course each one of us was in lo,·e, and before the end of the year declared his passion, swearing that lack of reciprocity would cause his death. H owenor , at present, all seem to hm·e passed through the ordeal of being /.:id,:cd without e\·en the loss of appetite. Thus has passed our College life away, and being conscious that the happiest period of our existence is o\·er, we take the liberty of again reminding onr readers that in time \\'e will all be great men, and ha,·ing folderl up our gowns, badges of our successfu l work. and together with our caps put them a\\·ay to ser\'e as heir-looms for future generations, we lay aside the pen, knowing full well that onr greatne!'s will some day cause other men to continue our history.

I. II. F or fo ur long years beneath the wall . And now on strand of T ime we stand, \\'hich bears the arms of \\'ashiug ton Before each youth a fragile bark, E ntwined with Lee's, whose " Duty" call The oar of Truth is in each hand, Our spirit stirs and does enthrall , \\' hile Duty 's rudder , whose command \Vhile in this town of Lexington , Will guide onr course, at stem we mark. A noble band of seyenteen youths Beyond where rays of setting sun H ave learned to steer the bark of life, Life's foaming billows touch with gold H a,·e learned the fundamental truths, A Castle stands, " Success'' upon Which gi\'e success in worldly strife. The portal gra,·en its ti tle told . ·HI III. v.

\Ve often heard of Castle fair Thus ''Doctor'' spoke in accents true, And as Ambition's breeze \\'as blowing, The other loved ones said ''Amen;" \Ye set our sails and launched with care And H. A. said, ''From history too Our barks upon the ocean bare You'll find Success those only knew To find ''Success," our hopes aglowing; \Vhom Duty's rudder steered," and then And flag of blue and mingled white Old Alec, Davy and Old Sid. To Fortune's wind spread out its folds, "The shortest way two points between While forms on shore-belo,·ed sight, A straight line is, and to Success A warning g-ave of rocks and shoals. The straight and narrow path is seen."

n·. n.

"Life's sea is stormy, many a rock Old Hatchet. Billy, Harry too Uplifts its dangerous head on high. \Yith one accord from Syntax, Science, And whirlpools deep your course so block, And Socrates, 's mantle wearing And shoals of Sin so ch;ely lock, And Patsy, Old Nick's truncheon bearing That it is hard to pass them by ; Proclaim, " In Scriptures haye reliance!'' But steer your course by Bible plan The courteous General bids "God speed!'' And if your boat upon some reef And John L. Campbell's cheering shout Should drive in wreck, to ·Son of man' ''Do not let troubles, your course impede; Repentance give and find reli ef." Put the dreadful demons of Care to rout."

Thus from the shore the voices hail And cheer our hearts, while gathering mists­ Emotion's rolling tide-so veil With fog our vision, that we sail \Vhere e\·er Fortune's zephyr lists; But Hope 's bright sun again shines forth And puts the misty clouds to shame, Ambition's breezes our sails bulge forth. "Success" we seek beyoud the 1\Iaiu.

VIII.

Aud now the sun is brightly beaming. Our barks on billows blue are dancing. B:uometer shows prospect seeming So old, so bowed. his hair so white \Vith promise fraught, so bright and gleaming \Ve see with awe his tottering form, That hidden Future is entrancing. Transfixed we stand by glittering light So thus we leave the bounding shells, Of gleaming eyes, whose piercing sight And seek the Prophet of the Ages In the soul sees hidden good and harm. \\'ho from the Future, mist dispells The staff of Years he bears in hand And thus attention close engages. On his shoulders a wondrous robe is thrown­ A patchwork made of Natious, L1nds- (.51 ) By destiny woven is clearly shown . X .

He stops and leans upon his staff, T o question, ans\\'er slow replies, ''The Castle of Success will hold All ninety-fiye 's brave members bold . I see them knock , and open flies The portal wide, but some are old And all are worn by braYely fighting, The stormy billows, tempests cold Of life were angry, stern and blighting."

XI. The Prophet ceased, his answer giYen; About him wrapped his wondrous cloak, \Vhich History has so often striven, Philosophy been so often driYen, T o read aright and truth evoke. H e totters ' way; we know our fate, And cheered we'll steer our barks so true Through stormy billows, soon or late To plant on Castle white and blne. William McChesney lllarti11.

kind , it would be need­ the fi eld \Yhich is open to the eng in eering profession. Neither would it be proper ro discus:-; t he nobleness and worth of the profession, nor the opportunities afforded by it to make the world better and to make a name fa mous.

A history of the past of this cl ass would be wholly uninteresting . as it would only delineate a series of successes and failures, and of o: currence.; co:n ­ mon to all college men.

A history of the future might be made very pleasing, if the facts were but known. I t could well be im ­ agined brig ht and successful and just as easily fa ncied otherwise. But not to enter into the depth" of tl!e unknown future, let us turn to the scenes of our present year, our last at \\'ashiugton and Lee. H ere happy congeni al ity reigns supreme. and the future is left to take care of itself.

There is the daily routine under "Old Da\'y," so toilsome and at least a little monotonous. aucl the:t the practical work of the spring-time, when everyone else is provokingly at leisure. But the engineer h a ~ h is joy s and solace; his path is not all roses, nor yet is it all thorns. The C. E. ne \·er has to read parallel. ConceiY c of the E ngineering Class of '95, gathered in the room of a hospitable member , the lessons of the morrow prepared 51 and themseh·es entirely free, while the unfortunate A. B. 's are groaning and laboring under an immense burden of parallel. N"o such cases dare intrude here. The host, feeling himself bound by a time-honored custom, passes around in a most hospitable manner his box of "\\". & L. l.Iixture," and, in a short time, the pipes are gomg at full blast. After enough smoke is emitted by these pipes to mak e the air haye a decided bluish tinge, and the whole company has fallen into that state of contemplati,·e bliss that the nicotine alone can inspire, how natural it is for someone to suggest that this is our last year at college, and, then , for all of us to tell of our dreams and plans fo r the time when we shall be '' turned out'' in the professional world. Each has started from his re,·ery and is picturing to himself, in the dense fog of smoke surrounding him, great bridges, tunnels, airships, embank­ ments and all manner of engineering structures. Each has his particular whim, and whether his masterpiece is to be a bridge, an airship or what not, .he gi,·es a long and technical description of it. One particular scene like this, we remember, was interrupted by a crash , like unto that of a roof falling in. A committee of investigation was appointed and soon reported to the effect that all the commotion was brought about in an adjoining room by a copy of'' Rankine'' fa lling from a table.

But, alas, there will soon come an interruption far from comical: the last pipe "·ill be smoked, the last theory will be aired in the sympathizing atmosphere, and the C. E.'s of' 95, their labors at \\"a;.hington and Lee completed, will be separated to try their theories and realize their dreams in a broader fi eld. C.· F.

\\.hen the histor ian turns to chronicle the rise an,J prog ress of the L aw Class of '95, he is e mbarrassed by the wealth of material that lies before him in the career of this deseryedly illustrious body. H ow ,·aried and splendid their achie,·ements ; how inadequate his pen to the task of describing them ! In the early d ays of an autumn two years ag-o, the members of the class became couvinced that the n:-~tural state of man is 110t isolation, but society. They realized that,

" The world was sad , the g-arden was wild, And ma n a hermit lh·ed, till woman smiled ;" a nd putting them sel\'es in the shoes of Selkirk. they conld exclaim :-

"Oh , Solitude, where are the ch arms That ~ages h ave fo und in thy face? Better li,·e in t he m itbt o f alarms. Than reig n in this horrible place."

With the intention. therefore, of entering into a social compact (see my CoLumbia address), they entered W . L . U. 011 the roth of Septetl}ber , 1893, (Quere de !z oe), and h ~ca m e for the first time a coclus hominum, or in other words " the people.'' U nder the pat ria poles/as they plunged deep into the jus _l;C I~Iium and jus inter gmtcs, sat at the feet of Lord Stowell as he dispensed justice to the whole commercial world, and with an abiding faith in a future intemation:tl code, swore by the beard of the prophet tint h enceforth free s hi ps shall , and of right ought, to make free goods. H aving the power to pass all examinations wedded to the right to progress, they soon demanded their own e xtradition , got thei r bearings, and entered into the con sideration nf contracts. with and without consideration, of specialties and contracts by parol. A lthough mistak es and misrepresentations were common enoug h , in truth , at t his stage, none were sufficient to ayoid the agreement entered into for a diploma in futuro, and after the cl ass had executed a certain writing respondatory, they were declared to have discharged their contractual obligations by performance and were once m ore free. Xotwithstanding the fact th at "nul/u s fibe r homo destruatur," this well earned liberty was sh ort·lived, and they were forthwith summoned not ad loquo zdum but ad audit!!ldum of the F ree, So\" ereign ami Independent Statel·, confederated under the name of t he United States, to which States all rights or iginally belong ing to the said States are r .=sen·ed unless delegated to th e Uni ted States by the C. U. S.-anddon 't you forget it ! •' H ear me , also, on this point-' T o lay with one hand the power of the gO\·er nment on the property of the citi zen . a nd with the ot!1er to bestow it upon favored indi\·iJua ls . . . is none t he less robbery because done under the (orms of law and called taxation .' (per l\I iller, J., in T opeka \ 'S . Loan Association)." From the contemplation of the manner in which gm·ernmem s acquire land by purchase or conquest, to meditation upon the individ ual's rig ht by deed or livery of seisin, to his freehold or leasehold, messuage. close, curtilage or premises, was n ot too long an intell ectual stride fo r the giant minds of this uoble body. The law of real e~tate, therefore, consu med the remainder of this, their fi rst college year , until it broke upon them , in the words of the poet , that-

" Fee-sim ple a nd a simple fee a nd all the fees entail , Are nothing when compared to thee, thou best of fe es-female."

Accordiugly they t urned their weary faces toward the laud of each rising son, and spent three months iu recru iting strength for an attack upon the torts 'and crimes of a wicked worl d. \\"hen they had once more gotten their bea r ings in Lexington, they made an assault upon one Pollock, B:trt.; aud him g rie\·ously and maliciously, with force and arms, beat, abused , cussed, ~ w ore at , and commended to the abode in such case made and prO\·ided , eternally and perpetually, for the future peace and dignity of the \V. L . U. law class and each member thereof. Theu followed a wild pursuit of that " ideal, metaphysical being-that ens rationis''-that soulless creature of the law , a corporation ; in which the class joined as ''couriers without luggage." This ad\·enture over , they were arraigned before a most competent tribunal on the charge of a willful for-

64 getfulness of the law. both of substance and procedure. 1\fter plea of the gen eral issue and joinder thereon , they were most iniquitously forced to gi,·e \\'ritten evidence tending to criminate themseh·es: nor was parol contem ­ poraneous evidence allowed to contradict or vary the terms of this written instrument. Cast down but not destroyed by this experience, they applied for a ch·111ge of \"entte: and r ~ nt e mb ~ rin g that ao;uilas ;·t:~ ilanlibu s subz•mil, they gird themseh·es again for the last mile of the e\·entful rae;:: and \\'hen their last answer to inter ­ rogatori es shall be fil ed there will arise a presump ~io n -lmt one prima facit• and, alas. rebuttable-that they are learned in the law. B ~ hind the class lie two years of arduo.ts study and of friend!~ - interco.trse, berore th ;- m the end of their stndent career, and beyond that a life spent in the seniceof theirclwsen calling. ''Succes..; in the law reqnir<:s , first, a good deal of mo1ey; second, a good deal of patience: third, a good cau,;e; fourth , a good lawyer; fifth, a good counsel ; sixth. good \dtnes-; .:s; se,·enth. a good jury: eighth, a good judge ; ami n in th . good luck .'' Let us hope that when the future history of '95 comes to be written, it will be found that the clients or each of her mem­ bers have hac! these nine points of the law in their possession: and that while ··The path oi the hw is a long and perilous pilgrimage: its prizes are splendid bu t distant--they cannot b .: \\\)n in a day," it may nevertheless appear that each member of the class has rea ped the re\\'ard never denie.d to courage, perseverance . and honest industr~ .

Ube lbistorical ~apers. -· The IoYer of the quaint a nd simple customs of colo nial life, and of the early clays of the R epublic, will find in the Library four volumes which will prove of surpassing interest-the " Historical Papers of \Vashington a nd Lee University," published under the auspices of the Board of Trustees. The firs t uf th ese appeared in 1890, and is the most interesting, possibly, of them all. It conta in s, ( 1) "The Early History of 'Vashington Coll ege, by the R ev. H enry Ruffner, D. D., late President of the Coll ege." (::!) "'Yashington College," an article from the Southern Literary l\I esscnger of 1838, by Samuel L. Campbell, l\1. D. (3) "A L etter on the location of R obert A lexander's S chool," by Judge Ja mes T. Patto n. The "Early History," by Dr. Ruffner, forms the bulk of the volume. It was written between the years 1 8-to and 1847, a nJ is a most valuable account, not o nly of the early trials of what is now \Vashington a nd Lee U ni,·ersity, but also of the settlement of the Valley and of th e habits of life of the thrifty Scotch-Irish, who play such a n important part in the history of the struggle for free­ dom. The style is vigoro us, a nd the author's side comments on the tendencies o f the day, and his theory of the ideal college community, so nearly realized by the present U niversity. are by no means the lea st interesting- pas:-:ages. Volume I I awakens our pride in our g lorio us Alma !\Tater even more. if possible, than does the story of her earl y struggles. It, too, contain s that story, but its chi ef object is to set forth the virtues of the F ounders of the Institution, and to g ive some account of their lives and deeds. This is done at considerable length in an address by the H on. Hug h Blair Grigsby, LL. D.,

i4 deli,·ered before the A lumni in June, 1870. The same \'olume contain s another address, delivered June, 18-1- s. by the Re\'. Archibald A lexander, D. D. The mere mention of his illustrious name is enoug h to assure one that the address is well worth reading . "The S co tch-Irish in the Vall ey of Virg inia," is the subj ect of the paper whi ch begins the next ,·olume . It is followed by " Notes on \Vashington Academy and \Vashington Coll ege." These sketch briefl y th e hi story of the school fro m 1 799 to 18 29, which p l:' rioJ is covered more minutely in \' olume 1\ ·. "Sketches of T rus tees" and " :\I emorial T ributes" fi ll the rest of the book. Such extracts are usuall y prosaic and dull , but here we read wi th unt1 agging interest of men whose lives are a n in spiration, wh o stopped at no obstacles, and many of whose names are fa mous in the history of the Old Commonwealth. \ ' olume I\', published in 1893, undoubtedly holds the second place with regard to interest for the general reader. It contains chi efly a "Conti nuati on of the H istory of\Vashington Coll ege d uring the period I 799-1 8 29, with S ketches of the Alumni of that period," by William H enry R uffn er, LL. 0., the disting uished son of Dr. H enry R uffner. H is style is clear, and reminds us to some extent of that of his father, thoug h he is more in accord wi th the sentiment of our own times. This volume also closes with "Sketches of Trustees. " The whole seri es of papers makes a ,·ery complete a nd accurate history of our Institutio n down to the year 182 9. It is hoped that the admirable work may be continui'd, a nd that we may soon be abl e to read the later hi story of the Coll ege a nd U ni versity. Lack of space prevents more than the mere mention of the contents of the papers, but fo r the man wh o loves his university no more pleasant task can be found than the careful perusal of these scholarl y sketches and addresses. O r, if there be one in whom coll ege spirit is languishing. there is no s urer way of stim ulating it than by readin g of the birth, the vicissitudes, the growth and the triumph of o ur A lm a 1\I ater as here narrated.

The independent literary and journalistic iustincts of the students of old \Vashington College fo und expression in the pages of a small paper that was published in tht: fall of I8+8, under the snggesth·e name of" The Owl. '' T he students of that day wrote \'erses to black -eyed Chloe, translated H orace, became altem ately ecstatic and pathetic in obser\'ing the chaste beauty of the pale moon , in\'eighed again st the Faculty·- and went on n ig-htly cali tlmmps. Those old \\"ashingtou College boys seem to have been about as unruly as the Faculty were clictaturial, aud they , and all belong ing to them, were continuall y iu trouiJ!e. The career of the new-fl edged "Owl" was thus troubled from the beginning, and came to au early close during the fi rst mouths of 18+9· The poetry that unceasingly ,,·ell s ti p from the student heart remained \Y ithout record, aud perhaps uu ­ spoken . unless to those man ·elously sweet and perfect damsels of the olden times, that doubtlessly looked as rap­ turously at the Commenceme11t 1110011 as do their granddaughters now , duriug the t weh ·e years before the war. It was not till the fall of 1868, three years after the o:d Coll ege do:1rs, so long clo.~ e d-w hil e the spirited young students bore muskets iu the Sto11ewall Brigade-h ad been thrown open to admit as presicleut the great war-chieftai n of the Confederacy , that another a ttempt was made to establish a student publication. The revi,·ed periodical was issued semi-monthly, and contained eight folio pages. The new pa per , to which was gi,·en the 11 ame of THE CoLJ.EG lAX, \\'as fortunate in haying at the fi rst two talented men as ed itors-C. R . Breckinridge and S. Z. A mmeu-IJoth of \\'hom haye since attained prominence, the one as Cong ressman from Arkansas, ancl the other as Editor of the Baltimore Snn. THE COLL EGI.-\:-. seems to ha\·e obtained the support of the best literary talent iu the institution , and during the first fi \'e years of its existence its pages contained some nnusually good \\'riting. Duriug the session

'i i of 1871-'72 its pages displayed some of the first \York of the now famous Thomas ~ e l so n Page. In the list of editors which may be seen below, are found se,·eral other names since distinguished in letters and politics, as well as se,·eral that ha,·e become well known in the educational world. Among these last may be noticed Charles A. Gra,·es and H enry Alexander \\'hite, both Professors in \Yashington and Lee Unh·ersity ; \\'. S. Currell, of Daddson ~ all ege, and J . H. Dillard, of Tulane. During the first year of THE COLLEG IA:-: 's existence, it was edited by two editors, one from each society, \Y ho held office during terms of three months. In 1869 the name was changed to THE SOl'THERN COLL EG IA N. In addition to the two editors from the two societies, respectiYely, in this year , an annual editor was elected by the joint ballot of the two societies. This system continued till 1873, when the jealousy of the societies made it necessary to choose two a nnual editors. In 1878 THE COLL EG IA:'\ became a monthly, and was reduced to its present magazine form. In the same year began the custom that still pre,·ails, of putting in charge of the magazine an editor-in-chief chosen by the societies jointly, and four associate editors, two from each society. In t 892 the societies began to elect jointly also an assistant editor-in-chief. In 187o, l\Ir. J oseph Santini, of New Orleans, ga,·e to the L'nh·ersity $t ,ooo, the income from which was each year to be used in purchasing a medal to be a\Yarded to the writer of the best essay appearing in THE CoL­ LEGIAN. For a number of years the Lexington Gazette also gaye a medal for the second best essay, but that has long been discontinued. The list below contains the names of all the editors down to 1872, after which only the names of the chief editors are g i,·en:

'f}!i Graham-Lee Literary Society was organized J an. 19, r8og, under the name of t the Graham Philanthropic Society ; and , besides being the first organization of the kind in what was then \\'ashing ton College, was one of the first three literary so­ cieties to be organized in American Colleges. The fo unders were J ohn D. Paxton , President ; l'el Wilson , \ ' ice- President; J ames W . Paxton, Secretary; Randolph Ross, William C. Preston, J ohn S. Brown, Gusta\·us R . J ones, Edward C. Carring ton , J ohn P. \\' ilson. From that cl ay to this the Graham has turned out men who ha \·e tak en prominent places, and s =rw:cl faithfully in many high capacities, yet ne\·er forget the old hall where they got their first training in public debate.

In common with the College, the Society had much of its property and records destroyed by Gen. Hunter's troops in r36..j. ; but, at the close of the war its faithful members came togetht r agaiu and started afresh. On the death of Gen. Lee the name was changed to the Graham-Lee Society, thus coupling the name of the fo under of \ \'ashing ton and Lee with that of him who is justly called its second founder. It is a curious coincidence that the day which the Graham-Lee celebrates. th'= nineteenth of January, is the auniYersary both of Gen. Lee's birth and of the founding of the Society , these eyents ha ppening within two years of each other.

Since 1867 the Society has been g i,·ing a debater's medal, and a declaimer's medal since I S j l . These medals were at first awarded to the one who was yoted the best d ebater or declaimer in the reg ul ar session of the Society, but, more recently, ha\·e been contested for at the public celebration. 85 Grabam::'lLcc ~ctlallsts.

IRE\V ashington Literary Society was establish ed in the year 1812. l Unfo rtunately the records of its early history, which might pro,·e interesting, are lost. It was establi shed shortly after the Graham­ Lee, and e\·er since has maintain ed a good roll of members, and run hand in hand wi th the sister Society. In 1867 its members began to hold annual contests among them­ sel\"es for the best oration , and in 1871 declamations \\" ere introduced into the contest. In · 1879 the declamations were omitted, and only orators took part until rSS r, in which year no medals were awarded. So much excitement and dissention was created by the elections, that the faculty, for the interest of the Societies, off ered medals for the best orator and declaimer in a contest between the societies at finals. In 189 1 the declamations were aboli shed, though the orator's medal is still awarded. In 1885 the Society revi\'ed its individual annual celebration, bnt holds it now on the 22 d of February wi th less excitement, and awards it!> own medals then and there. The Washington Society awarded only a de bator's medal until 1890, sin ce when a medal has also been giveu to the best decl aim er in the annual celebration. 87 1lntcrtor of Cb•wcl. i.'L1asbington SC~ctct~ ~cllaltsts . t 867-0rator's Medal, T .

In a university which owes so much to such christian soldiers as George W ashington and Robert E. Lee, it is eminently fitting that the religious side should hold the prominent place and exert the influence that it does. Doubtless the absence of hazing and the kind attention Freshmen receive is largely due to this cause. A Young :O.Ien 's Christian Association was first regularly organized in \Vashington College on :\lay 28, 186i . From the first, the Association had the sympathy and acti\·e support of the President, Gen . Robert E. Lee, and of Prof. White and the other professors, and influenced by them has carried on a number of missions in the neighborhood.

The first trouble seems to haye been in procuring a room; they moved from one place to another until the present Chapel was finished, when the room in the basement, which they now occupy was fitted up. Immech­ ately after organization, a movement was started for a library; Gen. Lee subscribed generously toward this, and by vigorous efforts among friends, quite a good library was obtained for the u se of members; one feature being that text books were kept to be loaned to ministerial students. This library was afterward turned over to the University.

In order to prewnt jealousy among the denominations, it was formerly the custom to elect a man to represent each; but it is a sig nificant fact that such care is no longer needed, there is absolute unity . Two prominent occurrences under the Y. M. C. A. are the reception to Freshmen and the address to the Y. M. C. A. on the Sunday night of Commencement. The reception is gi,·en on the first Friday night of the session. There are speeches of welcome, refreshments are seryed and an opportunity is g iyen the students to get acquainted with one another. The religious meetings are at 3.30 P.M. on Sundays; the first meeting of each J?Onth being devoted to missionary subjects.

r. T o Kustys, the King. was born no son, nor was any daughter reared within the royal palace ; and, forsooth, it was when h e looked upon the face of woman that·he was most desirous that the end of his life might be approaching. But to the dwellers in his kingdom he was a mild a nd generous ruler, a father to the needy and unfortunate. " There happened to be present in the realm o ne, Lenarticus, who had come from a far distant provin ce, a skillful player upon the bazoo a nd many other in struments, both reed and stringed, and he was mad e satrap and ·co m­ mander of all the m en of music assembled around the king . 3· H e coll ected him a company in the following manner : calling together all the players upon in struments and all the sons of song. he bade them show forth their skill, and of them he chose such as seemed to him most fit, but none of the daughters of music came unto him until he sought one for his consort \\'h en th e journey was done .

...J.. \Vhe n it seemed to him time to march up into the country he summoned H oscar, his g uest-fri end. and Hibbertius. who was not afar off. Also he took with him Hwa ng. the K en-

This fragment from a pre-historic historian was found in the course of discoveries around l\Titylene. Curiously enough, too, tradition tells us that the town was founded and named by a band o f wandering allll famished barbarians, whose condition probably suggested the ua me 1\Iity-lene. Perhaps this historical relic gives the clue to their ident ity. The thought suggests itself that the work o f which this seem s a part m ay have furnished Xenoplwn with the ground plan for his famous "Retreat of the Ten Thousand.'' tuckian. g reat in \'Oice a nd stature ; Kurtius, the brazen-lunged ; Billibel, the sweet singer in Israel ; ;\lari onorippus, thus named because he bellowed loud a nd horse-like a nd devoured great store of the fragrant weed ; H wallis. the standa rd-bearer, who would fain have been carried in the Babylonish hammocks. 5· Also the noble Duke of Durham. a hig h-born ruler from a distant land ; and a Harper. of so great skill that one might not know but that bells rang afar off upon Olympus when he stroked his . H e had with him a lso Eik, the mountaineer, a man of won­ drous skill upon the viol, and likewise ?\I ak, the swa mp angel; and a great company of others, singers and players upon the , the sackbut, and the . 6. \Vhen tribute had been laid upo n the inhabitants of Athenidion and a sacred bull-calf had been sacrificed to , the compa ny was mustered for the departure. A nd to Louis the \Vise were g iven the keys of the the treasure vaults, a nd he was chosen to conduct the journey. J. From Athenidion they marched thirty-six parasangs to Stanten, a well peopl ed city, where there are many and beautiful women. There they were g ladly receiY ed, and from the many inhabitants who gaYe ear to their music they got g reat gain. At Sta nten they were joined by Cunny the D evourer, a nd D orsie the Ma ndolinian, who brought his smile with him. 8. Thence they proceeded a day's march, or a Sabbath day's journey, through a roug h and mountainous country to Hippopoli s, a populous city of considerable magnitude, where they abode two nights and a day within a sumptuous hostelry. 9· There was a g reat fair or market in prog ress among the people here where were seen many strange and wo ndrous things, but mainly were the booths fill ed with goat-skins containing the wine of this country-a very strong and fiery liquid. 10. Though the inhabitants of these parts are often dryer than they could wish. they dread water g reatly, and many would not brave the rain to hearken to the merry music, but very many were not disheartened. 11. Whe n the labors of the nig ht were ended a ri ch and powerful satrap led the musicia ns to his habitati on, and enlivened them with feasting and

132 dancing : and there Wl: re present very many most beautiful maidens, wise and charming as god­ desses, and most dangerous to men. I 2. Thence tlwy marched forty parasangs, a half-d ay's journey, to D ,tnphi1 , a small city of the same proYince, where they celebrated a festal clay with a of fowl s and with burnt offerings and in cense, and then .: they g ot g reat gain . 13. Thence they proceeded by a night's march to Katanooga, a well populated city, wealthy a nd of considerable magnitude. The fear of water is less here than in th e former province, and, although the gods were sending much rain, the populace hail ed the company g ladly and great shouts arose from the multitude that li stened unto them. I..J-. There is furthermore great kindness to strangers in these parts, and the musi­ cians entered the dwellings of two of the townsmen, \\'h ere they met many of the damsels of the place, \\'ho were of very fri endly di sposition. Thus it was that II wang, th e K entuckian, a nd Hos­ car, the g uest-fri e nd of Lenarticus, and the noble Duke of Durham would have tarri ed here, for they found it a pl easant land, flowing with camel 's milk and \\'in e ; but they were at length pre­ vailed upon to depart. 15. From this city they proceeded a half-day's march to Atla ntis, a city large a nd pros­ perous. They arriYed there about the time of the full market, suffering g reatly from cold and want of prO\·isions, and they straig htway fed a11d refreshed themselves, and la ter provender was gi,·en them by some of the inhabitants. 16. As the night drew on th ey entered a great building and collected around them a vast concourse of the people, wh o wo uld have rent the wall s with their cri es a nd shouts of delight-especially when H oscar, the guest-fri end, and D orsie, the l\ lando­ linian, were before them. 13ut the latter seemed exceeding sad and would gladly have yi elded hi s psaltery and plectrum therefore into other hands forever. 17. But it was very cold in this co untry. and they departed th ence willingly. bearing much treasure with them. The nce they marched by night tc• Saphana, a fair and populous city.

1~ 3 passing through a barren a nd sandy country covered with pine trees a nd palms. They halted on the march at a place, Epherett by name, where travelers are wont to be refreshed with the fl esh of fatted swine, ostrich eggs of long keeping, wi ld honey, and certain other victuals peculiar to these parts; all these they procured at a"n e l\ lagnolia House, and camel's milk was bartered for in a booth hard by. 18. About mid-day they entered Saphana, when it was extremely cold. Though the in habitants of these parts are not altogether like the barbarians of Ethiopia, it is true, never­ theless, that the use of fire is almost unknown among them. 19. So it cam e to pass that when an unnumbered multitude had gathered around the musicia ns, fearing that they should perish in in the ice-cold desert wind, they besought the populace to depart unto a warmer place (the peo­ ple wot not that the under-world was meant) , a nd themselves proceeded to wax warm and merry with some noble and kindly elders of the town.

1. Now they had already gotten together a g reat store of gold, so when L ouis the \Vis e saw that the men were becoming weary and that many of them were ill, he took counsel what should be do ne. 2. Then spoke up Hwang, tlw K entuckian, a nd said. "0h, Birdie, I am exceed­ ingly fatigued at this mo ment. I do not care-nor does anyone else -for a ny further exhibition of our vocal abilities. All day, aye, and for many days, I have heard them displayed to a satis­ factory advantage, and it is now my \\'ish that my weary limbs should be placed upon their accus­ tomed couch, and when we have offered up our orisons and to the gods that we should return again once m ore unto the spot from whence we came forth." 3· And the words of Hwang, the K entuckia n, seemed good unto Loui s the \Vise and to a ll who heard them. and it was

13-! accordingly agreed that the retreat should be begun. 4· Thence they proceeded by rapid marches to Karleston, a sea-coast city, wh ere tribute was demanded of them by the barbarian satrap of the place; and food was procured from a certain Vue Hing. a yellow-livered, slant-eyed barbarian. 5· Thence they marched to Kolumbia, a well peopled city, anJ thence by night to Lynkburg a very mountainous town wh ere the daily rations were dispensed to the men. Thence they marched by easy stages, about forty parasangs, to Athenidion, from which they had fonm:rly set out : and they arrived there on the evening of the first day of the week. 6. Thus was ended the advance and retreat of Lenarticus, Loui s the \Vise, and the goodly assembly which companied with them. They got upon their expedition large amounts both of gold and silver, and \\'On much honor and g lory. 7· How afterwards Lenarticus, the leader, took unto him a wife of the daughters of Calli ope. how * * * -l<· * -l<· * [The frag ment is, unfortunately, incomplete and terminates thus abruptly.]

The first we hear of football at \Vashington and Lee is of games on the campus, with on.e hundred on a side, in '72 ; the prominent feature then seems to have been broken shins. From that time on there is mention of one or two games each year between the students and cadets, with the result commonly in favor of the former. Fifty played on a side in the first of these games, though later the number was only twenty-fiye or thirty-fiv e, but even then it must have appeared like two armies in conflict. Of course, there was no regular training, the games were impromptu, and it is even recorded that our neig hbors tried to catch us napping, thinking us unpr epa~ ed, but they found themsel\'es mistaken.

The associati on game continued to be played through the seventies and eighties, up to '89. when the Rugby game was introduced. That year we "cleaned up" the cadets, and the next year they refused to play. In '91 the result was undecided, but it is only just to remark that they have evened the score since. Considering the circumstances, we have done well in football ; some of the first teams had good material, but lacked training; in '9 2 we had good training, but the team was light, though it did remarkably plucky work.

Besides the courts of the Club, the University keeps 1n order a number of fin e courts which are daily filled with enthusiastic players.

l.'i.f There were a numbe r of runs after the close of the '94 foot-ball season ; but the great run was on Thanksgivin g mo rning. ~ Twelv e started, a nd all but two completed the course. The hares, Lauck and Shields, ~ laid o ut a co urse of about ten miles, with three skillfully laid false trails. The\' had fi,·e minutes start, a nd compietcd tl{e run in one ho ur and thirty-two minutes. The time of Bo ppel. first hound in. was six minutes more, with Kuykendall close be­ bind one-half minute later.

lbiator~. ( Grale/uf(v dedicated to Sykes, tlze pitcher. ) As in fo o t-ball, the history of base ball a t \V. and L. U. must be largely made up of the contests with our neig hbor, the Institute. A noticeable point is the largeness of the early scores, no record up to '78 giving either side less tha n te n. In that year we shut the University of Vir­ ginia out. The first game with any team from outside L exington was with the l\lonticellos here in '7'2, score '2+ to 20 against us. Our team returned the visit the same spring, but the score is not recorded. A feature of the games then were the courtesies extended to the visiting teams ; a supper with plenty of liquids and toasts always followed the game, a nd it was eve n said that on o ne occasion the Charlottesville merchants refused to take pay for purchases made by our team! In '77 we played U . Va. a nd were beate n by the score of 19 to 17. The great Sykes pitched his curves in the last three innings, after the regular pitcher was hurt, but we seemed not to have appreciated, to start with, how great a treasure we had in him. In '78 our team went to Charlottesville a nd retrieved the preceding d efeat by the score of I '2 to o. Sykes' curves could not be touched. The Uniz•ers i~v lllaf;aziue called this ''the most scurvy trick ever perpetrated in the history of base ball! " Since then we have had teams well up to the average and often above it, but '9'2 is the brig-ht a nd shining year in o ur base blal a nnals; we won every game played and the champio nship of the south. 1.')6 Jl3 asc :113:1 1!

THE history of boating in \Vashington a nd Lee is quite interesting. The first we hear is of the existence of two rival clubs, whose chi ef aim seems to ha,·e been to take cali c rowing on moonlig ht ni g hts. ln 187 -t- . at the s uggestion of "The Collegian," the first chall enge was sent a nd accepted ; the custom o f chall eng ing was kept up for ten years or more. The first race was rowed below the clam , a course of one and a half mil es up stream. A six oared barge with coxswain was used. Gaily decorated canal boats were pressed into service for the specta tors. No prize was g iven the fi rst year, but thereaft er a sil ver cup was presented to the best oarsman of the winning crew, and in r 877 Bi shop Pinckney of l\Iary­ lancl, who took g reat interest in the races, gave the mag nifi­ cent Pinckney Cup. For a number of years, tub races served to amuse the specta tors while waiting for the g reat race, the victor being awarded a tin mp. In '82 an observa ti o n train foll owed the race for the first time, but the following year a new boat house was built above the dam, and the races have been over the mile course eYer since.

The past year has been a marked one for the amount of interest taken in indoor gymnasttc work. There has been much attention paid to fencing and more to boxing. Every evening there are a number who engage in " the manly art of self-defense ;'' not all showing high skill, thoug h a number are very skillful boxers ; the ring of the foils, too, is a most familiar sound. Then basket ball has been exceedingly popular, so much so that, at one time, it had more vi ctims than foot ball and, in some cases, it was a g reat incentive to pretty earn est boxing. H and-ball also has its votaries, who seek the quick eye and skill which it g ives, as well as the healthful exercise. The apparatus of the gym, such as the horizo ntal and parall el bars, the flying rings, the horse, and the traveling rings, otherwise "the freshman's delig ht," are always in demand. This year has developed a number of proficient and plucky performers on the vari ous apparatus who do numbers of difficult feats ; even the stoutest winning honors in this way. So much interest was taken that the "Gym Club," which appears above, was formed and its members have also worked up tumbling and other feats on the mats. 162 1bnrt\1 'lLcc JBont Crew. 159~ .

20S Statistics. 0 wad some power the giftie gie us To see oursels as other s see us; It wad frae monie a blunder free us And foolish notion.-Rurns. If fairies lived, and ont sh ould vi sit me Ancl say, "A favor ask, I'll grant it thee." Think y ou I'd seek the boon craved by m y b rothe rs,­ To see myself as I am seen by others ? Ah no ! this wuuld I ask the little elf: ·• Let others see me as I see myself."-G. R. H. T he opin io ns of coll ege boys are justly famous ; fo r a coll ege boy was never known ;to be lacking an opinion on any subject under the sun, an opin io n that he is ever will in g a nd ready[ (:';>. 209 g ive to a needy and benig hted world fr ee, gratis, and for nothing . Especially has the college boy a well-formed and fix ed opinion about the abilities, characteristics, and peculiarities of all his fel­ lows. H e has a peculiar dislike to that characteristic known technically as the big-head; and devotes a good deal of attention to methods of curing it-in others. The result in general is good, too, for it is edifying to note how the third week of the session sees the big gold medals that adorn the persons of the freshmen disappear, as do the leaves of autumn. Some people, who know nothing of a coll ege boy's in ward construction- the ig norance of outside people about coll ege boys is appalling-are unkind enough to say that the collegian's dislike of overweening self-esteem in others is due to the fact that each regards himself as being so· easily first, that for another to fail to perceive this evident primacy shows a lack of intellect deserving only of con­ tempt. This aspersion, however, o nly proves a lamentable ignorance that is some excuse, per­ haps, for the em·y that prompts it. Enough has been said to show that the opinions of college boys are valuable; and in the opinions that are grouped, compounded, collated and compil ed below, any one with the least sociological instinct will find valuable materi al for scientific inferenc e and interesting conclusion. It may be also remarked that the "Colleg e Girl," wh o may be seen seated in unaccustomed med­ itation alone, has had her part in the formation of this co11 smsus. The firs t thing we should like to know is who is the most popular man in \\rashington and Lee. There seems to be some difference of opinion on this subject, but a majority are agreed upon J. 1\ 1. Guthrie , of Shelbyville, Ky., g enerally known as" Judge Anson." The "Judge" has a hearty, co rdial manner, can say two hundred and forty pleasant words, full of fun and wit, in a minute, and besides knocked a home run in base-ball. H e has recently moved to the country, wh ere he is busily engaged in fishi ng and plugging for exams.- that is, at such times as he is not .e ngaged in a certain parl or "up town." 210 The contes t for " biggest cali co" man was long and stubborn. Billy l\ Iartin was well "into the game," but Sperow had farther to walk in goin g home with hi s best g irl. was seen by more p eople, and won by a close vot e. "She" is gone, however, and Sperow has taken to boating and letter-writing . Judg in g from the scattering ball ots, there m ust be very many ugly men in college, but J . A . S mith got more votes for the " Ugli est ma n" tha n any one else, a nd is hereby certifi ed so to be. H owever C

211 W. R. Vance got most votes as "l\Iost Literary l\lan," by fraud and undue influence. Talk­ ing very glibly of Homer and Tasso, of Sophocles and Shakespear, (of whom we suspect he knows nothing) before the class in Junior English, he polled the solid vote of that class, and won by an easy vote. Inasmuch as Jim Bullitt, when calicoing, as he does every evening, has only to cross the street so that no one knows of it, and has recently di sgraced the institution by making 99 on Senior l\ Ioral Philosophy, he is generall y thought to be the " .i\Iost Studious l\lan" in coll ege. H e is also considered the " Best A thlete," and is by the unanimous consent of all students and " calics" alike, voted the" l\'Iost Talkative l\lan" in \Vashington and Lee." There are lean men in plenty in coll ege, so a choice of the " Leanest Man., from among the numerous candidates was an exceedingly difficult matter. The most prominent candidates were "Shorty" H elm, Powell , John L. Young, L. \V. Smith, and J. \V. Davis. All five of these gentle­ men being very popular, and each having a very larg e following of fri ends who insistently pressed their candidate's claims to the honor, it seemed for a long time as if no majority could be secured for any one of them. The calics refused to have any voice in the matter, and the deadlock seemed hopeless. Finally, however, it was demonstrated that Mr. Davis had gained seven pounds within the last two years, and hi s supporters, deserting him in disgust, flocked to l\ Ir. Smith, who thus secured a triumphant election. The fattest man was easily decided to be J. M. l\lason of \V. Va., while the votes for Lem Lowrey, of K entucky, for biggest man, and for J. H. Shiveley, of Illinois. for smallest man, were unanimous. A large majority, both of students and calics, think \Y. A. Bell , of Louisiana, the best dancer in coll eg e. It is fitting that the Final Ball President should be so. The contest for the distinction of being the worst dancer resulted in a tie vote between ~1r.

~ 1 2 C. C. Tutwiler and a tall a nd g raceful gentlema n from Louisiana. l\lr. T utwiler bein g the stati s­ tician fo r the Calyx, g racefull y yielded in favor of his rival. as might have been expected. But the gentleman thus selected assures us that the voters have made a mistake; and his opinion b<.:­ ing sustain ed by a competent court of young ladies, the election of l\lr. Young is hereby set asid e. ~Ir. A. H. D eal, or "Square D eal. " as he is known. is considered the most liberal man, not because he gives more tha n any others. but because he g ives what he can cheerfully a nd promptly. The rather invidious selecti on of i\ lr. S. i\1. Young, of l\ li ssissippi. as the most honest man is clu e, rather to the general beli ef that no dark thoughts could be concealed \\'ithin so bright a head. than to a ny suspicion of dishonesty in the rest of us. The neatest ma n is IJ. \\'eaver. of T ennessee, though he had a close competitor in i\ lr. G co. J ohnson o f Oregon. Some disappoi nted candidates ha ,·e been heard to say they guess they would be as neat as D. if they could get a g irl to go walkin g with them every afternoon, as he clues. The selection of one of the Ca{J'X ed itors. a member of the S eni or class, too, as the biggest ·· pre p," is so ridiculous that we scorn to notice it. It was evidently the result of a n unholy com­ bination of the " kids" and F reshmen. The a\'erage ma n at \Vashing ton a nd Lee is twenty years and one mo nth old, f1ve feet and ten in ches tall, and weig hs one hundred and forty-seven pounds.

Upon the field where Olympic games are held, In truth, dark had quite lost her place On which l\It.

She envious cast the down Now see the bold Athenian team ad,·ance Amid the vain Olympic dames, and drew Against the barbarous Vemeiratian band. All Greece in vengeful fi ght for ten long years Upon each brow there rests a stern resolve About the god-built walls of fated Troy. Some glorious deed to do or bravely bleed. But now the irate goddess saw her chance. Then came the dreadful rush of mighty frames, And straightway singled from the rodent band And heaped in struggling mass upon the plain ; A youth to folly and ,-ain boasting known, The players kicked, and slugged and bit their foes, And therefore missnamed Sophos. Him she led \Vhile muttered curses deep and fi erce were heard. By promise of unending brag in future days Full long the contest raged, but all in vain T o cast a coward spear, that speeding swift Athenian skill \Yith barbarous brawn contends; Upon its treacherous fli ght full on the back For though full many an athlete lost his teeth , The last Athenian struck, and down he fell. And bones were crushed, while crimson torrents fl owed L oud clang ing in his brazen arms, as when From broken noses, still did sad

215 On shields of brass, and hissing arrows cleft The air, while huge, rough stones by mighty arms \\'ere hurled as thick as driying storm of hail. Now tell, 0 Muse, what brayest deeds were done, \Vhat heroes fell, and what the issue was. First raged Angletes of the Athenian host \Vith flashing eye, and arm that none could stay, He dire confusion spread through all the ranks Of rodent foes, as terrier in a barn. He heaYed resistless stones with certain aim, Against the yielding foe. 'Twas then he spied The crafty Sophos. far retired behind The foremost ranks, from whence unsetn he sped His biting shafts upon the adyancing Greeks. \Vith maddened stride Angletes forward charged, Intent the blood of Sophos should be spilled In honor of his comrade that "·as slain. But young Gangrenes rashly stood between But yet too late. Angletes hurled a stone The cowering Sophos and the raging Greek. That fell with crushing weight upon his head; He quickly drew his gleaming sword and stroye His knees grew weak, and darkness as of night To pierce the warrior's hardened foot-ball snit, Crept o'er his soul, as does the surging "·a,·e But all in \·ain. The slender blade of steel Upon the shingle beach at rising tide; \Vas shiyered by the onward rush, and then H e sank to earth, and Sophos was no more. Gangrenes lay qniYering on the bloody plain. \\'hile thus Angletes raged about the plain, With troubled spirit Sophos thus beheld The fight was hot and fierce through all the host; His shielding friends o'erthrown before the Greek, Huge Pandexon, \'emeiratia's pride, .\nd aiming quick a last keen shaft that harmless Had struck to earth young Dophos with a stone. Turned aside, he safety sought in flight. But pions Koyon quick the giant slugged

216 \Vith knotted cluh, and brottght him to the ground, Nor then did Huinnos stay his mig hty arm. \Vhile Laikon fi ercely kicked the prostrate form. But raged like a furious liou midst the throng But soon was run braYe KoYo n's bloody course, Of brass-clad Vemeirates, carrying death For Sphilon's hurtling spear fell on his h ead , And wounds where'er he turned . but soon him , too. And like a massiYe tm\·er he crashed to earth . A rodent smote, and bl acknes" siezed his eyes. Then waxed g reat Huimtos direful wroth in heart, Bold Ienkinides also many a blow T o see his 10\·ed friend thus fallen low, And wound with stick and stone in \'engeance dealt , And straight he smote young Sphilon on the ear But him no god protected ; soon he fell And felled him as an ox upon the g reen. Beneath a gleaming war-sword's biting edge.
