GAMBIER, OHIO, APRIL, 1902. No. 1 (Editorial. QNE of the most disgusting features of our life here is the pitiably-childis- h misbehavior of students at the services in the college chapel. To be sure there are accidents, such as ludicrous errors in the music, which may bring an involuntary and, perhaps, pardonable smile to our lips, but certainly the extent to which this deplorable misconduct is carried is inexcusable as well as horribly sacreligious. We are well aware that there are among us certain students who delight, with a demeanor not unlike precocity in calling themselves by the high sounding names, Agnostic and Atheist, and to such we can only plead in these columns that the essential qualities of a gentleman and scholar is a respect for the feelings of others. It is no excuse for such men to say that they do not feel obliged to behave themselves decently because chapel is compulsory. They are here eujoying the 2 THE KENYON COLLEGIAN. exceptional advantages which the church offers in her educational institutions, and in return they are in honor bound to be governed by the rules of the institution to which they belong. To others it should be a sufficient restraint to remember that they are in a temple hallowed to the Lord their God, who is not only Omnipresent and All-seein- g, but is here more especially enthroned on His altar, for this is the habitation of His House and the place where His Honor dwelleth. It is only a matter of minor consideration that the latest exhibi- tion of the sort (at this writing) was in the presence of a visitor, but still it is a pity that such was the case, for it is by just such a course of conduct we will inevitably become known as a body of men entirely bereft of reverence for God, and absolutely lacking all courtesy to our fellow men. FTER writing the above we learn that choral services will, for the time being, be discontinued. While there are few things more beautiful than a reverent and well rendered choral service, there is nothing no matter how excel- lent it may be in the abstract which can be endured when it has become the cloak for such unconcealed merriment, fidgetting, and catermauling as have, of late, marred these services. YHILE we do not look forward with much hope that success will immediately attend them we are glad to see the efforts that are being made by the student body to become active participants in local politics. They cannot fail to be of great benefit to all concerned, and we are inclined to think that there is a bright outlook for a not very distant future if these efforts are constantly sustained. 'E go to press just at the beginning of another series of final exam-amination- s. The 'honor system ' is to be followed again, and it is to be hoped that its right to exist will be firmly established by the undergraduates of Kenyon. The first trial of this system met with a ULYSSES. 3 great measure of success and if the committee can bring two more favorable reports, it bids fair to become a fixed institution here. Last term the honor examinations came particularly hard on some of us in view of the fact that they were unlooked for, and rose out of conditions which came into existence towards the end of the term. We trust, and indeed, have good reason to believe that the work done this term has been of a nature which will greatly lesson this bulwark of temptation. Still in many cases it will be hard, up hill work, and we must fortify ourselves as we prize the honor of Kenyon against any attacks of weakness which mayvassail us. Ulysses. BY STEPHEN PHILLIPS. A drama in prologue and three acts. Pp. 178. New York. The MacMillan Co. The appearance of Stephen Phillips's latest book, now that he is generally acknowledged to be the foremost English dramatist of the day, is anticipated in America as well as in England with pleasure and eagerness by a number of people which increases as Mr. Phillips's renown spreads. His fame has constantly grown since the publication of his first book of poems until with the succession of three dramas of marked excellence and beauty, his reputation has been confirmed. His poetry, while it has only so far placed him among the number of best living poets, gives promise of something in the future that will establish him as one of the leading men of letters in the history of literature. Some of his poetry has been nearly Miltonesque in its dignity ; his verse in a few instances has been compared with Pope's for its perfection; and his plays written in blank verse with wonderful feeling have been declared Shakespearian. However much adverse criticism has been leveled against him, it is not denied that both his poetic genius and his dramatic power have a truly wonderful scope. 4 THE KENYON COLLEGIAN. His dramatic ability has manifestly increased until in his last drama, Ulysses, he has succeeded with a theme that by previous and frequent attempts was pronounced impracticable in those very points in which he has excelled. Not only has he done this but he has taken events from the life of Ulysses that had never before been suggested on account of the seeming impossibility of their adoption to the stage. Not one before him dared to think of portraying the descent into Hades; Stephen Phillips has made it one of the most power- ful moments in the whole play. In darkness, on a precipitous descent dimly seen, with a glowing river stagnant at the bottom, amidst a whirring of wings and cold blasts of air with indistinguishable shapes of spirits flitting about him, Ulysses descends into Hades. With fear and trembling, hesitating now as he sees this awful void before him and remembers the fair world left behind, then taking cour- age when he thinks of Penelope and Tebmachus awaiting him, he goes slowly on. Amid the cries of children and the awful shapes of Furies pursuing him, listening to the petitions of the damned, and observing with horror the vain efforts of Tantalus and Sisyphus, and finally try- ing to clasp the shadowy form of his loved mother to his breast, he endures all to get home. Home is the theme of the drama and duty the ever paramount issue. From beginning to end home is the desired object and duty is opposed to pleasure. When Calypso offers him immortality and tries in vain to cast on him her weakened spell, he says : " Goddess and mortal we have met and kissed, Now am I mad for silence and for tears, For the earthly voice that breaks at earthly ills, The mortal hands that make and smooth the bed. I am an hungered for that human breast, That bosom a sweet hive of memories There, there to lay my head to die, There, there to be, there only, there at last ! My wife, my wife ! I'd go down to hell, if hell led home." And how beautifully are the roads of duty and of pleasure con- - ULYSSES. 5 trasted; the one, soft and easy ; the other, hard and rough. But in all the ease dissatisfaction was present. " In his wildest kiss, a kiss with- held and in all that sweet a something stern." How better could this be expressed than in these words : " This odorous, amorous, isle of violets, That leans all leaves into the glassy deep, With brooding music over noontide moss, And low dirge of lily-swingi- ng bees Then stars like opening eyes on closing flowers, Falls on my heart. Ah, God ! that I might see Gaunt Ithaca stand up out of the surge, Yon lashed and screaming rocks, and sobbing crags, The screaming gull and the wild-flyin- g cloud." From the prologue until Penelope falls unto her husband's arms the poetry is full of dramatic feeling and expression, detailing the character with the most wonderful precision. The climaxes are reached and left so gradually and gently that the movement is devel- oped to the mind with admirable gradation. It is slowly that Ulysses realizes his terrible trial by descent into Hades, but not so slowly that it is not a terrible shock when Athene tells him he must do it. The last scene, where Ulysses comes home to find his wife sur- rounded by suitors, and his possessions diminished by their prodi- gality, offers an opportunity for depicting in all its wiliness the much famed cunning of Ulysses.

    SELECTED DEATH NOTICES FROM JACKSON COUNTY, KANSAS, NEWSPAPERS VOLUME V 1900-1902 COMPILED BY DAN FENTON 2003 INTRODUCTION At the beginning of the time period covered by this volume, there were four newspapers being published in Holton, The Holton Weekly Recorder, The Holton Weekly Signal, The Tribune, and The Kansas Sunflower. The Soldier Clipper, and the Whiting Journal continued in their respective cities. In Circleville, the Circleville News ceased publication on November 8, 1900, and was soon replaced by the Jackson County World, which began publication on December 7, 1900. In Hoyt, the Hoyt Sentinel began publication on April 12, 1902. In Denison, the Denison Herald began publication on September 25, 1902. As noted in the previous volumes, not every death reported in these newspapers is included in this book, only those seeming to have some connection with Jackson county. A death notice could appear in different newspapers and from different sources within a.paper. One principal notice is listed with excerpts from other accounts being used only when there is differing or additional information. Accolades to the deceased success as a Christian, parent and citizen have been deleted when possible, because of space consideration. Three ellipses denote the deletion of part of a sentence and four that of a sentence or even paragraphs. Each death notice is numbered consecutively and it is this number that appears in the index, not the page number. This is an all surname index that I hope will help the researcher identify family relationships that otherwise would be hidden. The index begins on page 893.

GENERAL EDITOR'S PREFACE The military aim which the British people and the British Army had set before themselves at the outbreak of the war had been achieved, and more than achieved, by the close of the first year. In his great marches, from Moclder Eiver Camp to the Portuguese frontier, Lord Eoberts had swept away the stubborn resistance of the Boer armies, had triumphantly occupied all the chief towns of the two Eepublics, and had securely established himself upon the great arteries of communication. After Komati Poort there was no longer a single compact, centrally organised and centrally equipped Boer force in the field ; the Boer artillery had almost disappeared; on every side the burghers were coming in to assure the conquerors that the surrender of those who were still in arms was but a matter of a few days or at the outside weeks. Few, indeed, there were who recognised that the British aim had been set too low, or understood the magnitude and character of the task that still lay between Lord Kitchener and the realisation of the national purpose expressed in the formal annexation of the Piepublics.

  • A Case Study of Four South African War (1899-1902) Black Concentration Camps Dr Garth Benneyworth
    A case study of four South African War (1899-1902) Black concentration camps Dr Garth Benneyworth Senior Research Associate: Department of Historical Studies, University of Johannesburg, [email protected] Abstract On 11 October 1899, the South African War commenced between the British Empire and the South African Republic and Orange Free State Republic. This conflict saw the targeting of civilians by all sides throughout the conflict and a harbinger of 20th century “Total War”, when civilians and their resources were harnessed to support military objectives. Set against the prior use of concentration camps in Cuba and the Philippines, the war was followed by a genocidal campaign undertaken by Imperial Germany against the Herero people in German South West Africa in 1906. Although civilian internment in South Africa was not genocidal by design and purpose, it caused a high loss of life and lasting bitterness amongst Boer descendants. Black concentration camps, however, were far more lethal to their internees and designed along a completely different model. Their role was to coerce labour while supporting the British war effort in defeating the Republican forces. Through a work or starve policy, combined with withholding food, medical support and shelter, many perished from systemic neglect. Yet the memory of this experience of the black concentration camps has entered historical discourse only recently, in the last three decades. The area of study, examined by this article, is those black concentration camps established during 1901 to 1902, at Klip River Station, Witkop, Meyerton and Vereeniging, in the former South African Republic (ZAR). Contemporary tangible evidence of these camps remains fleeting.
