Col.  7<5hn  8.  Cuningham,

this  volume  is  respectfully

Col.  '^ohn  S.  Cuninsbam, 

COL.  JOHN  SOMERVILLE  CUNINGHAM  was  born  in  Warrenton, 
N.  C,  September  5,  1861,  and  is  a  son  of  the  late  Hon.  John  W.  Cun- 
ingham,  who  was  for  more  than  thirty  years  a  member  of  the  House 
and  Senate  of  North  Carohna,  and  was  long  accounted  the  most  influential 
citizen  in  Person  County. 

After  a  thorough  course  at  the  famous  Horner  School,  at  Oxford,  and 
Bingham  School,  at  Mebane,  the  subject  of  this  sketch  entered  the  University 
of  North  Carolina,  and  there  completed  an  excellent  education. 

Although  one  would  judge  that  the  talents  and  tastes  of  Col.  Cuningham 
tended  toward  a  professional  career,  still  with  rare  intuition  he  chose  as  his 
field  of  labor,  the  management  and  improvement  of  his  large  inherited  estate, 
intending  by  this  means  to  demonstate  the  superiority  of  Eastern  North  Caro- 
lina in  agriculture  over  other  sections  of  the  country,  and  especially  for  the 
raising  of  the  celebrated  "golden  leaf"  variety  of  tobacco. 

Col.  Cuningham  was  well  equipped  for  his  sphere  of  life,  being  the 
possessor  of  large  wealth,  a  host  of  friends,  great  intelligence,  a  keen 
business  insight  and  pleasing  manners. 

As  might  well  be  expected,  he  immediately  achieved  success,  and  has 
become  one  of  the  foremost  planters  in  the  South.  He  has  introduced  new 
methods  into  farming,  and  by  his  active  interest  and  example  has  improved 
the  agricultural  interests,  not  only  of  his  own  State,  but  of  the  entire  South. 

As  a  recognition  of  his  leadership  in  this  line  of  life,  Col.  Cuningham 
had  the  honor  conferred  upon  him  of  being  chosen  to  preside  over  the  large 
assembly  of  prominent  agriculturalists,  known  as  the  "Interstate  Farmers' 
Convention,"  which  met  at  Danville,  Va.,  in  February,  1888. 

Col.  Cuningham  was  a  delegate  to  the  Paris  Exposition  in  1889,  and 
traveled  exten^vely  abroad,  visiting  France,  England,  Scotland  and  Ireland, 
and  carefully  comparing  the  condition  of  the  laboring  classes  of  these  countries 
with  those  of  our  own. 

Although  always  attending  strictly  to  business  affairs.  Col.  Cuningham 
has  taken  an  active  part  in  political  matters,  being  known  as  one  of  the  lead- 
ing Democrats  of  the  State.  In  1889  he  was  married  to  Miss  Otelia  M.  Car- 
rington,  of  Virginia,  daughter  of  Col.  Henry  A.  Carrington,  of  the  Confederate 

Army.

When  Gov.  Fowle  was  inaugurated,  he  appointed  him  the  senior  mem- 
ber of  his  staff,  with  the  rank  of  colonel,  and  when  Gov.  Holt  succeeded  to 
the  gubernatorial  office,  he  requested  Col.  Cuniiigham  to  retain  his  position 
on  the  staff. 

Col.  Cuningham  has  an  excellent  library  and  takes  great  interest  in 
history  and  literature.  He  has  also  quite  a  reputation  as  an  orator,  and  is 
known  as  an  eloquent  and  forcible  speaker.  One  of  his  most  celebrated 
addresses  was  that  on  the  subject  of  "Tobacco,"  and  was  delivered  at  the 
"Farmers'  National  and  Pan-American  Agricultural  Congress,"  held  during 
the  "Cotton  States  and  International  Exposition,''  in  Atlanta,  in  1895.  He 
has  been  in  great  demand  in  every  part  of  the  country  as  a  speaker  on  literary, 
agricultural  and  political  questions,  and  has  thus  made  himself  known  through- 
out the  nation,  besides  taking  special  interest  in  education,  immigration  and 
other  cjuestions  of  the  day. 

Col.  Cuningham  for  many  years  steadily  refused  to  become  a  candidate 
for  any  political  office,  though  many  fine  opportunities  presented  themseh'es, 
but  being  finally  persuaded  to  accept  the  candidacy  for  the  State  Legislature, 
he  was  elected  in  November,  1896. 

He  was  the  caucus  nominee  and  candidate  of  the  Democrats  for  Speaker 
of  the  House,  being  supported  by  legislators  representing  145,000  votes,  and 
was  only  defeated  by  the  fusion  of  the  Republican  and  Populist  forces. 

Although  a  patriotic  man  in  the  national  sense  of  the  word,  he  is  pre- 
eminently a  North  Carolinian,  and  is  always  glad  to  aid  his  nati\e  State  by 
every  honorable  means.  Thus  Col.  Cuningham  now  stands  as  the  exponent 
of  the  "Old  South"  and  the  "New  South,"  and  his  "Alma  Mater"  may 
well  point  to  him  as  one  of  her  noblest  sons,  and  also  a  true  type  of  the  cul- 
tured Southern  gentleman  of  today.

Xtttroduction* 


HFTER    weeks    of    trial    and   tribulation,   amid  the  busy  round  of 
numerous  Class  duties,  the  Board  of  Editors  introduce  to  you 
the  eighth  volume    of    THE    HELLENIAN.      Not  many   new 
lines  have  been  undertaken  this  year,  but  an  effort  has  been  made  to 
enlarge  upon  and   improve   those    features    which    have    hitherto   been 
deemed  suf&cient  for  the  Annual. 

To  those  who  have  shown  such  a  kindly  interest  in  the  work 
we  tender  our  sincerest  thanks.  Especially  is  it  a  pleasure  to 
acknowledge  our  indebtedness  and  gratitude  to  Col.  Benehan  Cameron 
for  the  very  substantial  aid  and  encouragement  he  has  given.  What- 
ever of  a  success  our  book  may  be  is  due  in  no  small  measure  to  his 
generosity. 

With  a  due  appreciation  for  contributions  received  from  other  of 
our  friends,  and  with  the  hope  that  the  Ninety-seven  HEIvLENIAN 
may  prove  a  pleasant  memento  of  our  college  life,  we    are. 

Respectfully, 

THE  EDITORS.

H  Hvicf  Review. 


THE  University  of  North  Carolina  and  the  State  of  North  CaroHna  were 
born  'n  the  same  year — 1789.  During  these  one  hundred  and  eight 
years  the  University  has  been  the  mightiest  piece  of  social  machinery 
within  the  borders  of  the  State.  It  reached  its  ante-bellum  climax  in  1856 
with  461  students.  It  has  reached  its  climax  of  genuine  usefulness  and  power 
in  1897  with  400  students  and  the  largest  teaching  force  and  the  fullest 
equipment  in  its  history. 

The  University  is  non-sectarian  in  religion,  non-partisan  in  politics,  and 
as  impartial  as  justice  in  social  relations.  It  cherishes  the  fair  ideal  of  investi- 
gation and  discovery,  but  it  places  humanity  above  truth  and  seeks  above  all 
things  to  awaken  all  the  people  to  the  beauty  of  truth  and  the  effectiveness 
of  knowledge.  The  University  rests  upon  the  rock  of  public  favor,  public 
necessity  and  christian  democracy,  and  it  shall  endure  forever  !  The  spirit 
that  pervades  its  life  today  is  equality,  opportunity,  manliness,  and  self-help. 

In  the  following  imperfect  resume  one  may  see  the  evidences  of  its 
wonderful  expansion  in  the  last  six  years  : — 

1.  Increase  in  numbers  of  one  hundred  per  cent. 

2.  Remodeling  of  its  campus  and  buildings. 

3.  Extension  of  the  elective  system. 

4.  Establishment  of  the  Chair  of  History. 

5.  Establishment  of  the  Chair  of  Pedagogy. 

6.  Establishment  of  the  Department  of  Pharmacy. 

7.  Extension  of  the  Medical  Course. 

8.  Establishment  and  growth  of  the  Summer  School. 

9.  Establishment  of  the  Chair  of  Biology  as  a  separate  department. 

10.  Erection  of  Commons  Hall. 

11.  Admission  of  women  to  post-graduate  work. 

12.  Final  consolidation  of  its  libraries. 

13.  Establishment  of  electric  light  plant. 

14.  Establishment  of  the  University  Press. 

15.  Increase  of  teaching  force. 

16.  Increase  of  appropriation.

Xtt^uguration  of  president  Hld^i*^^". 


ONE  OF  THE  most  important  events  in  tlie  history  of  the  UniversitA', 
probably  the  most  important,  was  the  inauguration,  on  January  27, 
1897,  of  Edwin  Anderson  Alderman,  of  the  Class  of  1882,  as  Presi- 
dent of  the  University  of  North  Carolina.  The  Legislature  adjourned  over 
for  the  ceremony — an  event  without  precedent  in  North  Carolina — and  more 
than  one  hundred  members  came  from  Raleigh  to  Chapel  Hill  bv  special 
train  in  order  to  be  present.  The  hall  was  tilled  to  overflowing  with  a  dis- 
tinguished company,  and  the  exercises  were  of  the  most  dignified  and 
inspiring  character. 

Col.  Thomas  S.  Kenan,  1857,  was  master  of  ceremonies.  Ex-President 
Kemp  P.  Battle,  1849,  to  whose  efforts  is  due  the  revi\al  of  the  University 
in  1875,  delivered  an  address  of  welcome  on  behalf  of  the  faculty,  and  Mr. 
Robert  H.  Wright,  1897,  spoke  on  the  part  of  the  students.  The  President 
was  inducted  into  office  by  His  Excellency,  Daniel  L.  Russell,  1861, 
Governor  of  North  Carolina.  Professor  Nicholas  Murray  Butler,  of  Columbia 
University,  New  York,  delivered  a  congratulatory  address  as  representing 
his  University  and  the  institutions  of  the  East. 

Among  the  visitors  present  were  :  President  C.  D.  Mclverand  Professor 
P.  P.  Claxton,  of  the  State  Normal  and  Industrial  College,  and  Misses  Bing- 
ham and  Massey  of  the  same  institution  ;  Professors  D.  H.  Hill  and  W.  H. 
Riddick,  of  the  State  Agricultural  and  Mechanical  College;  Professor  W. 
L.  Poteat,  of  Wake  Poorest  College  ;  President  C.  F.  Meserve,  of  Shaw 
University,  and  the  superintendents  of  the  city  schools  of  the  State  who  had 
met  at  Chapel  Hill  to  do  honor  to  one  of  their  profession  who  had  never 
engaged  in  any  work  but  that  of  a  teacher,  and  had  come  through  fourteen 
years  of  successful  experience  in  puljlic  school  work  to  be  the  head  of  the 
State's  greatest  public  institution. 

The  enthusiasm  that  prevailed  was  most  significant,  and  President  Alder- 
man's inaugural  address  was  a  marvel  of  lucidity,  force  and  eloquence,  which 
held  the  undivided  attention  of  his  audience  for  more  than  an  hour  and  a-half. 

When  the  Presidency  of  the  Uni\'ersity  became  vacant  last  Summer,  with 
remarkable  unanimity  the  people  of  the  State,  particularly  the  teachers,  and 
the  faculty  and  students  of  the  University,  looked  to  Professor  Alderman, 
and  he  was  the  unanimous  choice  of  the  Trustees.  His  experience  of  four- 
teen years,  and  his  management  of  the  University  thus  far,  have  justified  the 
the  wisdom  of  his  selection.

Cl^'ip^l    Rill  and  X^s  Vicinity. 

THE  SITE  of  the  University  was  once  called  New  Hope  Chapel  Hill.  It 
was  nearly  all  densely  covered  with  forest,  a  favorite  with  hunters,  who 
had  their  deer  stands  along  the  paths  leading  between  the  valleys  of 
the  creeks  to  the  nort^  and  south  of  the  ridge.  The  road  from  Petersburg 
and  that  from  Newbern  crossed  one  another  somewhere  in  or  near  Mrs. 
Graves'  garden.  In  the  northeast  corner  of  the  cross  was  a  chapel  of  the 
Church  of  England,  attached  to  St.  Matthew's  Church,  Hillsborough.  The 
minister,  Parson  Micklejohn,  adhered  to  the  British  in  the  Revolutionary 
War,  and  hence  the  chapel,  losing  its  preacher,  went  to  decay  and  ruin. 
The  wife  of  Rev.  Dr.  James  Phillips  remembered  seeing  some  of  the 
fragments  strewing  the  ground  in  1826.  The  Trustees  of  the  University,  in 
1793,  established  a  village  out  of  the  lands  donated  to  them,  and  called  it  after 
the  second  half  of  the  original  name. 

The  hill  is  an  upheaval  of  granite  belonging  to  the  Laurentian  system, 
i.  c,  the  system  of  rocks  about  the  River  St.  Lawrence,  or  St.  Laurentius. 
It  is  a  part  of  the  coast  line  of  a  primeval  arm  of  the  ocean,  some  250  feet 
lower  than  the  country  west  of  it.  This  arm  is  here  sixteen  miles  wide  ;  the 
eastern  coast  is  lower  than  the  western.  In  the  course  of  time  the  bottom 
was  elevated  by  some  subterranean  force  and  became  dry  land.  Durham  is 
situate  on  this  ancient  sea  bottom. 

The  rains  falling  on  the  Chapel  Hill  plateau  run  off  by  numerous  brooks 
into  two  creeks,  that  on  the  north  being  Bowlin's,  and  that  on  the  south, 
Morgin's  Creek.  These  brooks  and  creeks  have  cut  up  the  land  into  deep 
and  sinuous  ravines,  and,  therefore,  there  is  a  vast  wealth  of  lovely  flowers, 
gray  crags,  noble  trees,  graceful  curves  of  hills,  and  beautiful,  diversified 
scenery. 

PiNEY  Prospect. — The  village  is  about  a  mile  from  the  primeval  sea. 
The  eastern  extremity  of  the  ridge  on  which  it  is  situate  is  like  a  promontory, 
overhanging  the  sea.  It  was  by  General  Davie,  the  father  of  the  University, 
called  Point  Prospect.  In  old  times  point  was  pronounced  pint,  and  hence, 
the  neighbors,  seeing  on  its  summit  some  lofty  pines,  changed  the  name  to 
Piney  Prospect. 

From  this  summit  is  one  of  the  loveliest  views  east  of  the  Blue  Ridge. 
In  the  distance  can  be  seen  the  steeples  and  chimneys  of  Durham,  the  lofty

trees  near  Apex  and  Cary,  while  the  smoke  of  the  locomotives  on  the  North 
Carolina  and  Raleigh  and  Augusta  Air  Line  Railroads,  curls  gracefully  in  their 
tracks.  Raleigh  is  about  200  feet  lower  than  the  eastern  coast  of  the  water- 
less sea,  and  is,  therefore,  invisible,  but  whenever  sky-scraping  rockets  are 
sent  up  by  its  jovial  citizens,  their  flame  plainly  flashes  above  the  horizon. 
"  The  wave  of  woods  and  cornfields,  and  the  abodes  of  men  scattered  at  inter- 
vals," in  the  wide  expanse  below  the  observer,  remind  him  of  Byron's 
Dream. 

On  the  crown  of  Piney  Prospect  Hill,  within  a  circular  area,  is  a  round 
rock  which  is  the  mythical  tomb  of  Dromgoole,  who,  disappearing  from  the 
University  and  having  never  been  heard  of  afterward,  legend  hath  it,  was 
killed  in  a  duel  and  buried  underneath.  About  a  hundred  yards  to  the  north 
is  a  stone  block  in  the  shape  of  a  chair,  just  large  enough  for  two,  called  the 
"  Lovers' Chair."  To  the  south,  following  a  winding  path  which  leads  by 
the  Rifle  Pit  dug;  by  Wheeler's  Cavalry  as  they  retreated  before  Kilpatrick's 
pursuing  column,  then  going  down  the  hill  and  crossing  the  Raleigh  Road, 
the  walker  comes  to  "  Miss  Fannie' s  Spring,"  by  whose  brink,  according  to 
Hamberlin's  beautiful  poem,  Dromgoole  and  his  ladylove  of  that  name, 
often  sat  discoursing  sweet  nothings.  Afterward,  wailing  his  tragic  death, 
she  frequented  the  spot  until  she  joined  him  in  the  spirit  land. 

About  a  mile  toward  the  northeast  from  Pinev  Prospect,  on  what  was 
evidently  an  islet  in  the  ancient  sea,  is  a  copse  of  woods  on  a  hillside.  Near 
its  center  is  a  cluster  of  massive  rocks,  and  in  their  midst  is  a  rude  chamber, 
closed  on  three  sides  and  partially  covered  overhead  by  the  beetling  cliff".  In 
this  dismal  retreat  a  runaway  slave,  named  Tom  Morgan,  lay  hidden  for  many 
months,  emerging  at  night  to  subsist  by  robbery.  Such  terrorwas  caused  by 
his  depredations  that  a  force  of  men,  armed  with  shot-guns,  scoured  the  forest 
and  succeeded  in  finding  his  hiding-place  and  capturing  the  robber.  This  is 
the  "Robber's  Den,"  or  "Black  Tom's  Lair."  With  boyish  curiosity  I 
visited  it  the  day  after  his  capture  and  gazed  with  awe  and  pity  on  his  bed  of 
leaves,  his  shoemaker's  bench,  the  charred  fire-logs  and  the  bones  of  pigs  and 
fowls,  relics  of  his  lawless  life. 

Toward  the  southeast  in  the  valley,  about  a  mile  distant,  is  the  plantation 
devised  to  the  University  by  its  last  owner,  Mrs.  Mary  Elizabeth  (Morgan) 
Mason,  for  the  education  of  poor  students.  The  bequest  she  requested  to  be 
called  after  her  daughters,  Martha  and  Varina,  who  died  just  as  they  reached 
womanhood.  The  portraits  in  oil  of  the  young  ladies,  and  of  her  husband. 
Rev.  James  Pleasant  Mason,  are  by  her  request  hanging  in  the  University 
Library,  and  the  authorities  have  added  hers  to  the  collection.      The  planta- 

16 


tion  is  one  of  the  best  in  the  county.  On  it  is  the  burial  lot  of  the  family,  in 
which,  besides  others,  is  a  handsome  white  marble  monument  erected  by  the 
University  in  accordance  with  the  wishes  of  the  testatrix. 

On  the  south  side  of  Morgan's  Creek  on  this  plantation,  is  one  of  the  two 
famous  Laurel  Hills.  Here  in  addition  to  trailing  arbutus  is  a  fine  growth 
of  the  grand  evergreen  shrub,  the  botanical  name  of  which  is  Rhododendron 
Catawbiense.  Professor  Asa  Gray,  in  one  of  his  books,  says  that  this  species 
never  is  found  below  eighteen  hundred  feet.  But  one  of  our  professors,  Dr. 
F.  W.  Simonds,  sent  him  specimens  and  he  promptly  acknowledged  his  error. 
The  other  Laurel  Hill  is  near  the  mill  of  Bennett  and  Oldham,  which  our  old- 
est Alumni  knew  as  Barbee's,  our  elderly  Alumni  as  Cave's,  and  our  middle- 
aged  as  King's  Mill.  To  these  hills  annual  pilgrimages  are  made  by  young 
men  and  maidens,  intent  on  despoiling  the  plants  of  their  beauteous  treasures. 
Occasionally  the  dryads  and  naiads  by  way  of  punishment  turn  over  the  slip- 
pery stones  in  the  creek-crossing  under  the  tripping  feet  of  the  damsels  and 
send  them  drenched  and  disconsolate  homeward.  They  always  emerge 
safely  from  the  disaster,  for  "  where  there's  a  IViV/s  there's  a  way  "  out  of  all 
such  troubles.  Haifa  mile  above  the  mill  is  a  lovely  defile  between  verdured 
hills,  where  the  water  sings  gaily  among  the  sweet  odors  of  yellow  jasmine 
and  the  bright  colors  of  woodbine.  This  is  "  Otey's  Retreat."  Here,  about 
three-quarters  of  a  century  ago,  a  young  University  tutor  spent  much  of  his 
time  studying  his  books,  or  romantically  recalling  the  image  and  the  words  of 
his  ladylove,  Miss  Eliza  Pannill.  The  lady  was  kindly  and  it  was  not  many 
years  before  she  journeyed  to  Tennessee,  the  wife  of  James  Hervey  Otey, 
Bishop  of  Tennessee. 

Higher  up  Morgan's  Creek  is  Purefoy's  Mill,  famous  in  the  old  days, 
before  railroads  came,  as  Merritt's  Mill,  whose  brand  of  flour  was  much  sought 
after  in  our  eastern  counties.  The  pond  here  is  a  lovely  sheet  of  water  and 
is  much  used  by  the  students  when  swimming  or  skating  is  the  lashion. 

Still  higher  up  this  stream  on  its  western  bank  is  a  notable  hill  declared 
by  Professor  Cobb  to  be  the  extinct  crater  of  a  volcano.  Suspicion  hath  it 
that  in  this  neighborhood,  in  a  still  wilder  and  more  secluded  spot,  there  was 
not  very  long  ago  another  kind  of  "  cratur,"  not  at  all  extinct,  but  alive  with 
all  the  fiery  headiness  of  moonshine  "old  corn  " — whiskey.  But  Professor 
Cobb  and  his  geological  class  did  not  chance  to  look  that  "cratur"  in  the 
mouth. 

We  will  now  cross  the  ridge  toward  the  north,  and  descend  into  the 
valley  of  Bowlin's  Creek.  Rising  to  the  north  we  see  the  Iron  Mountain, 
where  excavations  show  a  goodly  quantity  of  valuable  ore,  but  up  to  this  time 

17 


too  far  from  coal  to  be  merchantable.  Lower  down  is  a  most  romantic  defile, 
called  Glenburnie  ;  in  it  was  the  oldest  pre-Revolutionary  mill  in  this  region, 
called  Yeargin's.  The  mud-sill  may  still  be  seen.  There  is  a  story  that 
when  the  Indian  and  the  white  man  hunted  together  over  these  hills,  a  dusky 
maiden,  Winona,  loved  a  young  pale-face.  He  returned  not  her  affections 
and  soon  he  vanished,  his  tracks  ])ointing  toward  his  home  beyond  the  ris- 
ing sun.  Painting  her  face  and  donning-  her  finery  as  if  for  a  wedding  festi- 
val, she  paddled  her  canoe,  singing  plaintively  as  she  went  over  the  crown 
of  the  lofty  dam,  and  was  dashed  to  pieces  on  the  jagged  rocks  below.  Any 
listener  can  still  hear  the  murmuring  of  her  voice  among  the  rocks,  over 
which  flows  the  cruel  stream. 

Descending  the  stream  we  come  to  the  "  Valley  Mill  Pond"  with  "  Clover 
Hill"  overhanging  it.  This  sheet  of  water  is  a  favorite  for  skating  and  is 
much  visited  by  those  fond  of  walking.      The  fishing  is  indifferent. 

Below  the  mill  the  valley  widens.  On  the  north  is  an  abrupt  hill  named 
rdter  the  first  president,  Dr.  Joseph  Caldwell,  who,  although  a  good  Christian, 
was  called,  because  of  his  skill  in  capturing  wicked  students,  "Old  Bolus," 
/.  e.,  diabolus,  or  the  devil.  Mount  Bolus  gives  a  lovely  view  down  the  stream 
and  in  the  distance. 

The  hill  on  the  south,  opposite  Bolus,  is  distinguished  by  having  on  it 
one  great  solitary  pine,  the  last  survivor  of  many  such.  Beneath  it  is  a 
beautiful  fountain,  gushing  freely  Irom  the  hillside  into  a  natural  stone  basin. 
This  "  Lone  Pine  Spring,"  as  it  is  named,  is  the  best  specimen  of  a  mountain 
spring  in  this  neighborhood. 

On  the  country  road  going  through  this  (Tenney's)  plantation,  on  the 
left  as  it  reaches  the  valley,  there  was,  fifty  years  ago,  a  farmhouse,  then  inhab- 
ited by  the  negroes  of  Professor,  afterward  Bishop,  Green,  but  prior  to 
his  ownership,  by  Benjamin  Yeargin,  one  of  the  donors  of  the  Lhiiversity  site. 
My  father,  Judge  William  H.  Battle,  told  me  that  in  this  dwelling,  so  remote 
from  the  L-niversity  buildings,  he,  with  President  Polk  and  other  students, 
had  their  table  board,  walking  to  their  meals  three  times  a  day. 

The  hills  on  Tenney's  plantation  afford  a  very  distinct  view  of  Durham, 
especially  of  Trinity  College.  This  plantation  and  Piney  Prospect  were  the 
favorite  goals  of  afternoon  strollers  in  the  old  days.  Some  deflected  to  the 
left  and  visited  "  Love  Rocks,"  a  fine  cluster  of  boulders  in  the  grove  which 
is  between  Tenney's  and  the  town.  Others  went  off  to  the  right  by  a  wind- 
ing path  into  the  woods  east  of  President  Winston's  house,  and  found  at  the 
bottom  of  the  hill  a  lovely  spring,  with  the  grand  name  of  "  Roaring  Foun- 
tain."    The  place  is  very  rugged  and  romantic,  but  was  injured  recently  by  an 

1« 


attempt  to  use  the  water  in  a  hydraulic  ram.  Mrs.  Spencer  wrote  a  neat 
poem,  "The  Lament  of  the  Naiad  of  Roaring  Fountain,"  complaining  of  the 
desecration.  President  Winston  replied  with  the  "  Answer  of  the  Dryad," 
through  the  mouth  of  a  croaking  bull-frog. 

We  are  now  near  Battle  Park,  so  called  because  the  paths  permeating  it 
were  cut  by  a  former  president  of  the  University  with  his  "  little  hatchet  "  as 
a  recreation  from  his  anxious  University  work.  Seats  may  be  found  here  for 
loving  couples,  bearing  such  romantic  names  as  Trysting  Poplar,  Anemone 
Spring,  Fairy  Vale,  Lion  Rock,  The  Triangle,  Over-stream  Seat,  Vale  of 
lone.  Glen  Lee,  Wood-thrush  Home,  Dogwood  Dingle,  Flirtation  Knoll. 
One  of  the  loveliest  walks  that  can  be  found  is  through  the  southern  edge  of 
the  Park  to  Piney  Prospect,  then  by  a  winding  path  northward  to  the  brook, 
then  up  its  meanderings  to  the  village,  about  two  and  a  half  miles  in  all. 

The  cemetery  is  not  well  kept,  but  has  some  interesting  monuments  of 
students  who  died  far  away  from  their  homes,  of  venerable  men  and  excellent 
women,  of  a  gallant  Confederate  colonel,  Edward  Mallett,  a  son  of  the  L'ni- 
versity,  killed  in  one  of  the  last  battles  of  the  Civil  War,  and  buried  in  his 
bloody  uniform.      His  swords  are  hanging  in  the  Library. 

Taking  a  road  running  in  a  southerly  direction  near  the  east  wall  of  the 
cemetery,  and,  after  following  it  for  three-eighths  of  a  mile,  deviating  to  the 
right  by  a  path  through  a  growth  of  young  pines,  the  pedestrian  will  reach  a 
most  romantic  spot,  the  "Meeting  of  the  Waters,"  where  Chapel  branch  and 
Rockspring  branch  come  together  among  num.erous  gray  rocks.  The  dense 
shade  of  the  lofty  trees,  the  musical  murmur  of  the  tumbling  streams,  the 
high  bluffs  covered  with  mosses  and  ferns,  hepaticas  and  heart-leaves,  the 
rustling  of  the  leaves  of  the  tree  tops,  and  the  perfect  calm  below,  make  this 
an  ideal  place  for  lovers  of  Nature. 

I  close  this  paper  by  pointing  out  two  more  places  of  interest.  One  is 
the  "Mineral  Spring,"  near  the  point  where  Professor  Holmes'  beautiful, 
well-graded  new  road  curves  away  from  the  steep  and  rocky  old  Durham 
Road.  The  other  is  the  "  Point  of  Rocks,"  about  ten  steps  on  the  west  of 
the  Hillsborough  Road,  a  little  north  of  Mr.  John  Ward's  dwelling.  It  is  on 
his  land,  but  he  is  a  most  kindly  man,  and  I  am  sure  will  not  object  to  visitors 
enjoying  from  its  summit  a  most  charming  view  of  rolling  hills  and  lovely 
vales,  and  all  the  many-hued  beauties  of  forests  and  the  setting  sun.

EDWIN   ANDERSON   ALDERMAN. 


eDWIN  ANDERSON  ALDERMAN  was  born  in  Wilmington,  N.  C, 
May  15,  1 86 1.  He  was  prepared  for  college  at  the  Bethel  Military 
Academy,  near  Warrenton,  Va.,  and  in  1878  entered  the  University 
of  North  Carolina.  His  college  career  foreshadowed  a  successful  life  work  ; 
he  was  a  leader  in  every  phase  of  University  life,  and  on  graduation,  besides 
receiving  special  honors  in  English  Literature  and  Latin,  won  the  Willie  P. 
Mangum  Medal  for  Oratory. 

On  leaving  college  he  immediately  entered  on  his  chosen  work  of  educa- 
tion, being  elected  principal  of  the  Goldsboro  High  School.  In  1885  he 
assumed  the  superintendency  of  the  Goldsboro  Graded  School,  which  by  skill- 
ful organization  he  made  prominent  among  North  Carolina's  public  schools. 
From  1S85  to  18S7  he  held  the  honorable  position  of  president  of  the  North 
Carolina  Teachers'  Assembly.  In  1889,  as  State  Institute  Conductor  he  began 
a  three  years'  canvass  of  the  State,  that  resulted  in  untold  good  to  the  cause 
of  education.  His  brilliant  oratory,  zeal,  and  intense  earnestness  drew  large 
audiences,  composed  of  all  classes  and  conditions  of  people,  and  brought  as  a 
reward  a  great  educational  awakening  from  one  end  of  the  State  to  the  other. 

In  [892-3  he  occupied  the  Chair  of  History  and  Literature  at  the  State 
Normal  and  Industrial  School,  which  he  had  done  so  much  to  establish,  but 
resigned  at  the  end  of  the  year  to  accept  the  Chair  of  Pedagogy  at  the  Uni- 
versity of  North  Carolina. 

His  work  in  this  capacity  proved  him  a  teacher  of  preeminent  ability, 
and  his  course  became  at  once  one  of  the  most  popular  and  important  in  the 
curriculum. 

While  occupying  this  position  the  task  of  organizing  the  University  Sum- 
mer School  was  imposed  upon  him.  So  successful  was  he  in  this  undertaking 
that  the  school  is  now  one  of  the  best  of  its  kind  in  the  whole  country,  and 
has  made  for  itself  a  distinctive  place  among  the  State's  educational  institu- 
tions. 

In  1S96,  the  president's  chair  being  vacated  by  Dr.  Winston,  the  trustees 
unanimously  elected  him  to  the  presidency  of  the  University.  Thechoice 
gave  great  satisfaction  to  all  sections,  parties  and  professions  throughout 
the  State. 

24 


Soon  after  his  election  the  honorary  degree  of  Doctor  of  Common  Law 
was  conferred  on  him  by  the  University  of  the  South. 

Dr.  Alderman  has  been  at  the  head  of  the  University  now  for  one  year. 
During  this  time  the  same  vigor  in  administration  and  skill  in  organization 
that  characterized  his  previous  work  have  been  evident  ;  while  his  uniform 
frankness  and  fairness  in  all  matters  of  discipline  have  made  him  honored  and 
respected  by  all  the  students. 

Among  the  great  educators  of  the  country  Dr.  Alderman  is  not  without 
honor.  At  the  great  national  educational  gatherings  he  has  represented  his 
State  and  the  South  with  great  power.  His  speeches  are  masterpieces  in 
thought  and  eloquence.  He  is  an  honorary  member  of  the  Maryland  Histori- 
cal Society  and  member  of  the  National  Education  Association  ;  author  of 
the  "Life  of  Wm.  Hooper,"  and  "A  Brief  History  of  North  Carolina."

Class  of  ^QJ, 


IT  IS  with  mingled  pleasure  and  pain  that  the  Class  of  Ninety-seven  comes 
for  the  last  time  before  the  public  as  an  integral  part  of  the  University. 

We  are  all,  of  course,  pleased  with  the  idea  of  receiving  our  bachelor's 
degrees,  the  consummation  of  hopes  that  have  sustained  us  during  four  years 
of  hard  study,  but  we  are  also  pleased  when  we  think  that  for  most  of  us  at 
least,  our  college  days  are  o'er. 

We  have  indeed  had  many  happy  moments  ' '  'Neath  the  oaks  of  our  old 
Chapel  Hill,"  thrice  dear  to  us  who  so  soon  must  leave  them,  and  we  trust 
that  we  have  made  good  use  of  the  time  given  us  for  the  development  of 
intellect,  of  character,  and  of  manhood. 

Let  us  hope  that  the  many  happy  ties  of  friendship  and  learning  formed 
here  may  not  be  forgotten,  but  may  last  ever  cherished,  ever  green  and  ever 
looked  upon  as  among  the  greatest  blessings  bestowed  upon  us. 

And  now  for  the  last  time  we  greet  our  grand  old  Alma  Mater  with  all 
the  love  and  affection  of  appreciative  men  rising  up  in  our  hearts  ;  and  as 
the  curtain  falls  on  our  college  career,  we  renew  our  pledges  to  rally  around 
the  "  White  and  Blue  "  in  fair  days  and  foul,  in  the  chilling  winter  of  trouble 
and  disappointment,  and  the  balmy  summer  air  of  peace  and  prosperity.

r>istory  of  ^p8* 


To  BEGIN  a  history  of  the  "boys  of  Ninety-eight  "  at  their  entrance  into 
College  would  be  unfair  to  them  ;  for  since  our  childhood  days  at  the 
different  preparatory  schools,  both  in  the  schoolroom  and  on  the 
athletic  field,  have  we  cheerfully  and  manfully  tried  to  do  our  duty,  and  right 
often  have  we  come  out  victorious. 

Realizing  thus  early  that  man  must  fight  to  win,  when  first  we  entered 
College  we  "  put  our  shoulders  to  the  wheel,  "  and  we  defy  anyone  to  show 
a  more  enviable  record.  We  have  experienced  some  defeats,  it  is  true  ;  but 
from  them  we  learned  valuable  lessons.  Many  victories  have  been  ours. 
All  such  serve  to  inspire  us  and  to  urge  us  to  yet  higher  achievements. 

The  number  of  boys  who  entered  Ninety-eight's  ranks  was  large  com- 
pared with  former  classes,  numbering  nearly  no.  A  good  number  have 
dropped  out,  but  even  now  we  have  enough  to  graduate  a  larger  number 
than  in  previous  years. 

Ninety-eight  has  furnished  good  men  for  'Varsity  Football  and  Baseball 
Teams,  such  as  Collier,  Slocumb,  Carson,  Seagle,  Busbee,  and  many  others. 
For  the  Glee  Club  we  have  to  show  Lake,  Gudger,  Dey,  Pfohl,  Kearny, 
Askew,  etc. 

But  the  ambitions  and  aspirations  of  the  "  boys  of  Ninety-eight  "  already 

extend  far  beyond  our  College  walls.     Some  of  us  will    be  lawyers,  some 

doctors,  some  preachers,  some  teachers,  and  some  business  men.     Whatever 

be  our  calling  in  life,  we  shall  all  strive  to  do  our  duty  boldly,  freely  ;  ever 

holding  dear  the  associations  we  formed  when  together  ;  and  endeavor  with 

increasing  zeal  to  lead  in  professional  life  as  we  have  on  a  smaller  scale  in  our 

College  life,   having  before  us,   to  lure  us   on,  the  motto   of    Ninety- eight, 

"  Semper  idem,  nunqtiam  non parati.''

Ristory  of  *gg. 


IT  IS  a  great  privilege  to  write  the  history  of  Ninety-nine,  the  largest  class 
that  has  ever  entered  the  University,  but  it  is  difficult  to  relate  in  a  limited 

space  its  many  achievements. 

At  an  early  date  we  bade  defiance  to  the  Sophomores,  and  when  the 
time  for  our  election  approached  we  were  not  frightened  by  cries  on  the 
campus  of"  Fresh  Election,"  but  fearlessly  announced  the  forthcoming  event 
on  the  bulletin-board,  and  accomplished  our  purpose  in  spite  of  the  furious 
onslaughts  of  the  enemy. 

Washington's  Birthday  will  always  be  remembered  by  the  boys  of 
Ninety-nine  with  peculiar  pleasure,  on  account  of  the  variety  of  medals 
received,  from  the  fourth  degree  fool's  medal  down.  For  a  year  we  have 
worn  them  with  credit,  but  soon  we  turn  them  over  to  more  deserving  subjects. 

Although  as  Freshmen,  we  even  so  much  as  dared  to  black  upper  class- 
men, yet  upon  becoming  Sophomores  we  denounced  the  practice  and  declared 
the  sentiment  of  the  Class  to  be  against  hazing  in  any  form.      In  consequence 
of  this  anti-hazing  spirit,  the  present  Freshmen  are  the  most  cheeky  and  ver 
dant  that  the  University  has  ever  seen. 

We  entered  the  Football  contest  for  Class  championship  last  season,  and 
though  we  did  not  win  first  place,  yet  we  have  many  reasons  to  believe  that 
we  shall  head  the  list  next  year. 

Our  Class  maintains  a  high  standing  in  the  class-room,  furnishes  fine 
material  for  both  gridiron  and  diamond,  and  is  well  represented  on  the  Glee 
and  Mandolin  Clubs. 

Though  we  are  justly  proud  of  past  achievements  we  are  unwilling  to  be 
judged  by  the  past  alone,  for  that  would  sink  into  insignificance  upon  the 
contemplation  of  the  friendly  future  which  stretches  out  before  us. 

Soon  our  happy  hours  with  Conies  and  with  Second  English  will  be  over. 
Commencement  is  fast  approaching,  when  we  shall  be  fully  repaid  in  pleasure 
for  the  arduous  duties  of  the  Sophomore  Year. 

After  spending  a  pleasant  Summer,  widely  scattered  throughout  the  State, 
we  shall  again  collect  "  'Neath  the  Oaks  of  our  Old  Chapel  Hill"  to  launch 
out  boldly  our  individual  canoes  on  the  turbulent  sea  of  Psychology.

Ristory  of  ipoo. 


^\  S  THE  year  has  slowly  rolled  by  with  its  many  pleasures  and  trials,  it  is 
r\      the  duty  of  some  one  to  tell  the  history  of  Nineteen  Hundred,  and 
although  our  record  here  is  comparatively  short,  the  historian  takes 
pleasure  in  relating  it,  and  in  naming  the  achievements  we  have  attained. 

In  September  of  1896  we  came  in  large  numbers  as  knowledge-seekers 
to  the  University,  and  since  that  time  we  have  made  a  marked  improvement, 
and  proven  ourselves  worthy  of  being  the  first  graduating  class  of  the  Twen- 
tieth century. 

In  athletics,  our  Class  holds  an  important  position.  We  have  furnished 
both  the  Football  and  Baseball  Teams  with  several  good  players,  and  still 
have  a  goodly  number  of  promising  candidates  for  later  years.  Exclusive  of 
the  men  we  have  furnished  for  the  'Varsity  Football  Team,  we  organized  a 
splendid  Class  team,  and  came  out  second  in  the  inter-class  contests,  defeating 
our  old  enemies,  the  Sophomores. 

About  this  time  the  annual  Glee  and  Mandolin  Clubs  were  organized, 
and  again  we  proved  our  importance  by  giving  to  them  some  of  the  best 
material  they  have  ever  had.  It  is  perhaps  not  too  much  to  say  that  the 
success  of  the  clubs  during  the  past  season  was  due  in  no  small  measure  to 
the  men  we  furnished. 

We  have  clone  nothing  that  we  are  ashamed  of,  but  at  all  times  have 
borne  the  burdens  that  have  been  imposed  upon  us,  and  now  as  we  are  about 
to  enter  into  a  higher  class  may  we  keep  our  record  as  pure  and  clean  as  it 
has  been  during  our  Freshman  year.

The  Philosophical  Club  was  organized  in  1896,  for  the  purpose  of  stimu- 
lating and  encouraging  original  thought  in  Philosophy. 

At  each  meeting  two  papers  are  read  upon  some  subject,  representing  the 
two  conflicting  ideas,  followed  by  a  general  discussion  in  which  all  are  invited 
to  take  part.  The  following  papers  will  illustrate  the  nature  of  the  work 
done  in  the  Philosophical  Club  : 

"Mathematical  Knowledge  is  merely  a  matter  of  Perception  of  Rela- 
tions."— S.  B.  Shepherd. 

"Mathematical  Knowledge  involves   Pure  Reasoning. "  —  T.  L.  Wright.

'^hc  Musical  0'*3anizations. 

ALTHOUGH  musical  entertainments  had  been  given  now  and  then  by 
crowds  of  students  at  the  U.  N.  C.  for  a  long  while,  it  was  not  until 
the  Fall  of  1891  that  any  regularly  organized  and  well  trained  club 
appeared  on  the  scene.  At  this  time  Prof  Karl  P.  Harrington,  himself  an 
enthusiastic  musician,  recognizing  the  fact  that  there  was  some  vocal  talent  in 
College,  consented  to  act  as  musical  director,  and  as  a  result  the  first  Glee 
Club  was  organized.  T.  M.  Lee  was  chosen  leader,  and  Howard  E.  Rond- 
thaler,  business  manager.  By  hard  and  steady  practice  the  Club  was  enabled, 
on  January  22,  1892,  to  give  its  first  concert.  This  was  in  the  University 
Chapel,  but  such  was  the  success  of  the  Club  at  home,  that  quite  an  extensive 
tour  ot  the  State  was  soon  taken.  By  a  combination  of  happy  circumstances 
these  concerts  became  at  once  popular,  and  the  fame  of  this  first  Glee  Club 
has  hardly  been  surpassed  by  any  of  its  successors. 

But  one  has  only  to  compare  the  first  program  with  some  of  those  since 
rendered  to  see  that  there  has  been  a  steady  growth,  both  in  the  quality  and 
originality  of  the  work  done.  Instead  of  "  Ching-a-Ling '"  and  "Johnny 
Schmoker,''  we  find  in  the  second  year  such  selections  as  Liszt's  "  Weimer 
People's  Song,"  Abt's  "Good  Night,  Beloved,"  etc.  This  improvement  in 
the  nature  of  the  selections  has  continued  until,  at  present,  only  a  high  grade 
of  music  is  used.  At  various  times  the  Club  has  been  fortunate  enough  to 
secure  original  productions  from  the  pen  of  Prof.  Harrington.  The  "Cradle 
Song,"  now  known  throughout  the  whole  country,  and  "  Peter,  the  Pumpkin 
Eater,"  were  first  sung  by  the  L^.  N.  C.  Glee  Club.  Other  compositions  by 
home  talent  have  appeared,  among  which  may  be  mentioned  the  "  Song  of 
the  A.  B.,"  written  by  Mr.  E.  P.  Williard,  and  set  to  music  by  Prof  Har- 
rington. 

The  need  of  instrumental  music  had,  however,  been  felt  from  the  first, 
and,  hence,  the  advent  in  1895  of  the  Mandolin  Club,  under  the  leadership 
of  Mr.  L.  M.  Bristol,  was  welcomed  with  joy.  A  Banjo  Club  was  organized 
the  same  year,  with  Mr.  H.  S.  Lake  as  leader.  Thus  the  Glee  Club,  by 
having  only  a  portion  of  the  program  to  prepare,  could  do  its  part  better, 
while  at  the  same  time  greater  variety  and  interest  were  given  to  the  concerts, 
(iraziani's  "  Nuit  d'Amour, "  and  the  "Weber  Mazurka"  will  serve  to 
indicate  the  character  of  the  selections  rendered  by  the  Mandolin  and  Banjo 
Clubs.  The  former  leaders  of  the  Glee  Club  were  T.  M.  Lee,  Hunter  L. 
Harris,  E.  P.  Williard,  and  Chas.  Roberson  :  of  the  Mandolin  Club,  L.  M. 
Bristol  and  C.  R.  Dey.

THE  ATHLETIC  life  of  the  University  is  of  comparatively  recent  incep- 
tion, but  its  development  has  been  rapid  and  satisfactory.  The  year 
1876  marked  the  first  attempt  at  organized  athletic  effort,  when  the 
Athletic  Association  was  established,  with  Mr.  Julian  M.  Baker,  of  Tarboro, 
as  its  first  president.  Our  first  gymnasium,  now  occupied  by  The  Commons, 
was  built  in  1885  by  the  Alumni,  chiefly,  however,  through  the  kindness  of 
Dr.  R.  H.  Lewis,  of  Raleigh.  Previous  to  this  time,  gymnastic  exercises, 
consisting  of  clubs,  bells,  rings  and  horizontal  bars,  were  engaged  in,  but 
they  were  given  in  the  open  air  and  were  necessarily  of  a  very  desultory 
character. 

Baseball,  fifteen  years  ago,  was  a  new  thing  here.  Certainly  representa- 
tive teams  were  not  thought  of,  and  this  sport  lacked  the  stimulus  always 
imparted  by  inter-collegiate  games.  The  first  baseball  contest  was  played 
with  Bingham's  School  about  ten  years  ago,  and  notwithstanding  the  fact 
that  our  opponents  were  victorius,  the  impetus  was  given  which  was  to  cul- 
minate in  our  Southern  championship  team  of  last  Spring. 

Football  had  a  subsequent  origin.  The  initiative  in  this  direction  was 
taken  by  the  Sophomore  Class  team  of  the  University  and  a  similar  team 
from  Wake  Forest.  As  in  baseball,  the  first  game  was  lost,  and  Captain 
Bragow  had  the  misfortune  to  get  a  leg  broken,  this  being  the  only  serious 
accident  that  has  ever  occurred  in  connection  with  our  athletics.  The  mod- 
ern game  of  football  was  finally  introduced  in  this  State,  and  Mr.  Cowan,  of 
Princeton,  was  secured  as  our  first  coach.  The  outlook  was  indeed  promis- 
ing, and  it  seemed  as  though  we  had  secured  a  strong  foothold  on  the  grid- 
iron, but  in  1889  the  Faculty  restricted  the  game  to  the  home  grounds,  and 
the  Trustees  went  further,  and  suppressed  it  altogether.  As  might  have 
been  predicted,  a  period  of  athletic  inertness  followed  as  a  result  of  this 
unwise  legislation.  In  1890,  however,  a  new  champion  of  athletics  appeared 
in  the  person  of  Prof.  H.  H.  Williams,  who,  with  the  assistance  of  such  mem- 
bers of  the  student  body  as  Geo.  Graham  and  others,  induced  the  Faculty 
and  Trustees    to   reconsider   their   former  decisions   and    permit    the   game 


142 


under  Faculty  supervision.  The  present  Advisory  Committee  was  inaugu- 
rated with  Prof.  Williams  as  the  Faculty  member.  The  latter  recently  gave 
way  to  Dr.  F.  P.  Yenable,  the  value  of  whose  services  cannot  be  over- 
estimated. 

In  the  Spring  of  iSgr,  Mr.  Graves,  of  Yale,  was  secured  as  coach,  but 
no  inter-collegiate  games  were  played  that  season.  Football  was  not  then, 
as  now,  confined  to  the  Fall  term.  The  baseball  nine  of  this  season  was 
captained  by  Perrin  Busbee.  Trinity  was  easily  defeated,  but  the  first  game 
ever  played  with  our  Virginia  rivals  was  lost.  In  the  Fall,  our  first  football 
eleven  was  sent  out  and  met  defeat  at  the  hands  of  Trinity,  who  at  that 
time  held  the  championship  of  the  South. 

In  1892  our  teams  made  much  better  records  in  both  games.  The  base- 
ball squad,  led  by  R.  H.  Johnson,  was  victorious  in  one  of  the  Virginia  con- 
tests, while  in  the  Fall  "the  great  eleven  of '92,"  of  which  Mike  Hoke  was 
the  intrepid  captain,  was  developed.  This  team  lost  only  the  championship 
game  with  Virginia,  but  was  victorious  in  a  subsequent  exhibition  game 
with  our  rivals,  which  took  place  in  Atlanta. 

The  year  of  1893  was  not  so  encouraging.  In  baseball  we  won  from 
Vermont,  one  of  the  strongest  college  teams,  but  performed  the  customary 
losing  act  when  we  stood  up  before  Virginia.  The  football  season  of  the  year 
opened  with  bright  "prospects,  but  closed  very  disastrously.  Barnard  was 
the  captain,  and  the  games  with  Virginia,  V.  M.  I.  and  Trinity  were  lost. 
In  this  season  we  had  the  satisfaction  of  being  the  first  Southern  college  team 
to  appear  on  a  northern  gridiron,  losing,  however,  to  Lehigh  by  a  handsome 
score. 

The  following  year  witnessed  a  slight  advancement.  The  baseball  nine, 
captained  by  Roberson,  divided  honors  with  Virginia,  and  made  a  creditable 
showing  in  the  encounter  with  Yale.  Again  football  stock  was  quoted  as 
unsteady  and  generally  gloomy.  Dr.  Baskerville  yielded  to  the  call  of  his 
fellow-students  and  consented  to  captain  the  team.  The  regular  game  with 
Virginia  was  lost  by  a  heavy  score,  but  material  was  developed  which  was  to 
make  the  successful  team  of  1895. 

The  baseball  team  of  1S95  was  handicapped  in  its  Virginia  game  on 
account  of  the  adoption  of  new  rules,  which  excluded  Oldham  and  Stephens. 
The  Fall,  however,  witnessed  our  red  letter  football  season.  Gregory  was 
captain,  and  Trenchard  coach.  Gregory,  Merritt,  Wright,  Baird,  Hurley, 
Collier,  White,  Whitaker,  Moore,  Stephens,  and  Butler,  composed  the  team, 
which  defeated  everything  in  the  South,  except  Virginia,  and  this  game  was 
properly  ours,  according  to  the  Virginians'  own  statements. 

143 


In  the  Spring  of  1896,  the  baseball  team,  with  Stanly  as  captain,  made 
a  great  record,  and  added  very  materially  to  our  athletic  reputation.  Not 
content  with  winning  from  Virginia,  this  team  defeated  all  the  prominent 
Southern  nines,  also  Yale  and  Lehigh,  at  the  same  time  scoring  on  Princeton. 
The  football  team  of  this  year  was  another  failure.  Captain  Wright  labored 
against  heavy  odds,  and  the  record  is  against  us. 

In  tennis  we  have  been  uniformly  successful.  In  1894  Messrs.  Bryson 
and  Bridges  defeated  Virginia  and  Richmond  College,  and  made  an  excellent 
showing  against  Yale  and  Princeton  in  the  Inter-Collegiate  meet  at  New 
Haven. 

Golf  was  inaugurated  last  year,  and  a  flourishing  club  exists.  Track 
athletics  is  receiving  attention  just  now.  Through  the  munificence  of  Mr. 
Lake,  of  New  York,  a  track  has  been  built,  and  a  team  has  been  in  training 
this  past  Spring. 

Improvements  have  recently  been  made  in  our  gymnasium  work.  About 
two  years  ago  the  apparatus  was  placed  in  the  Memorial  Hall,  which  is  more 
commodious  than  the  old  one.  Improved  apparatus  is  being  constant  y 
added,  and  Mr.  Mechling  gives  to  the  work  his  unceasing  attention.  Gym- 
nasium contests  are  held  at  stated  intervals,  and  much  interest  is  manifested 
in  them. 

This  imperfect  account  of  the  LIniversity  in  athletics  reveals  this  fact,  that 
in  the  past  we  have  constantly  labored  against  great  odds,  and  almost  unsur- 
mountable  difficulties,  and  that  with  these  removed,  as  they  bid  fair  to  be, 
the  future  will  possess  no  record  for  which  we  may  not  strive,  no  success 
which  we  may  not  attain.

Cbc  "Varsity  VcU. 

Oh,  the  boatman's  song,  on  the  waters  blue. 
As  he  rows  along,  may  be  music  true  ; 
But  like  ocean  rough,  in  its  rythmic  swell 
'Gainst  a  rocky  bluff,  is  the  'Varsity  yell, — 

"  Rough  !  Tough  ! 
We  are  the  stuff! 
We  play  football, 
Never  get  enough  !  " 

Bright  nights  in  June,  when  dancing  feet 

Recall  the  tune  of  waltzes  sweet ; 

But  in  review  your  echoes  swell 

More  memories  true — old  'Varsity  yell, — 

"Rah!     Rah!     Rah! 
White  and  blue  ! 
Vive  la  !  vive  la  ! 
N.  C.  U.!" 

Though  merry  the  sounds  of  the  hunter's  horn, 

Or  cry  of  the  hounds  on  a  irosty  morn, 

The  merriest  lay  that  ever  yet  fell 

Is  n't  half  as  gay  as  the  'Varsity  yell, — 

' '  Yackity  yack  ! 
Hooray  !     Hooray  ! 
Car-o-li-na 
'Var-si-ty  !  " 

Now  Wagner  may  be  quite  the  thing. 

And  dollars  pay  Calv^  to  sing  ; 

But  dear  to  us,  while  not  so  swell, 

The  cute  little  "cuss  "  in  the  'Varsity  yell, — 

"  Hippity  huss  ! 
Hippily  huss  ! 
What  in  the  h— 1 
Is  the  matter  with  us?" 

The  song  of  a  lass  is  a  joyous  sound, 
The  clink  of  a  glass,  as  the  healths  go  'round  ; 
But  leaving  them  far,  there  's  a  joyous  spell 
Which  nothing  can  mar.  in  the  'Varsity  yell, — 

"  Hackie  !     Hackie  !     Hackie  ! 
Sis  !     Boom  !     Bah  ! 
Carolina  !     Carolina  ! 
145  Rah!     Rah!     Rah!"

'CJ^c  OW  Btu«  Sweater. 

Let  others  sing  of  classic  halls, 

Or  oaks  of  Chapel  Hill  ; 
The  beauty  of  its  campus  fair 

May  their  fond  mem'ries  fill ; 
But  though  'tis  faded,  old  and  worn. 

To  me  there's  nothing  better 
Than  tender  thoughts  that  fondly  cling 

Around  the  old  blue  sweater. 

Ah,  stately  are  the  caps  and  gowns 

In  which  collegians  show 
The  dignity  of  Learning's  might. 

The  power  it  is  "  to  know  ;  " 
But  stirring  to  the  pulse  of  life 

Are  young  limbs  free  from  fetter, 
The  courage  firm,  the  muscles  strong. 

Beneath  the  old  blue  sweater. 

The  heroes  of  the  days  of  old 

May  shine  in  song  and  story. 
As  poets,  or  as  troubadours. 

Or  warriors  grim  and  gory  ; 
But  modern  girls  like  modern  knights, — 

And  what  girl  can  forget  her 
First  glimpse  of  the  White  and  Blue 

Pinned  on  the  old  blue  sweater  ? 

Ah,  boys  !  who  'neath  the  heat  of  May 

Or  frosts  of  Autumn  wore  it, — 
In  thick  of  game,  or  rush  of  play, 

How  gallantly  you  bore  it  I 
And  when,  'mid  plaudits  wild,  we  won, 

Old  Time,  I  am  your  debtor 
For  joys  as  keen  as  e'er  were  known 

By  boy  in  a  blue  sweater. 

Not  all  Ambition's  wildest  hopes 

For  which  the  man  has  striven. 
Nor  all  success  of  after  years. 

Have  such  rare  rapture  given. 
To  see  our  "  back  "  the  goal  posts  pass, 

On  earth  there's  nothing  better  ! 
' '  A  glorious  run  !     We  win  at  last ! 

Hurrah  for  the  old  blue  sweater  !  "

Red  Roses  and  ^htte. 


^ 


THERE  was  a  comical  look  of  perplexity  on  Nellie  Raymond's  fair  face 
as  she  stood  before  the  dainty  little  table,  holding  a  note  in  either 
hand  and  glancing  from  one  to  the  other  and  then  to  the  table  where 
in  odorous  beauty  lay  two  boxes  of  magnificent  roses,   the  one  filled  with 
blossoms  of  the  deepest  crimson,  and  not  a  fleck  of  color  on  the  snowy  petals 
of  the  others. 

"How   in   the  world   am   I   to  know   from   whom   either  of  these  boxes 

comes?     I  don't  see  why  they  couldn't  inclose  their  cards  instead  of  writing 

these  provoking  little  notes  that  don't  tell  one  anything,"    and  again  she 

gazed  on  the   "provoking  little  notes"   as  if  in  them  lay  the  solution  of  the 

mystery,    but    very    evidently    gaining    therefrom    but 

small  consolation. 

"  Was  ever  anything  so  provoking?  Almost  ex- 
actly alike  !  I  did  promise  them  an  answer  to-night, 
and  I  want  to  wear  roses,  too,  but — oh,  it's  bother- 
some !  "  with  a  little  stamp  of  the  foot,  "and  I  can't 
see  either  of  them  before  to-night  to  try  and  find  out 
what  sort  each  one  sent,  and  I  want  to  wear  his  roses, 
but  don't  know  which  they  are  !  " 

"Hello,  Nell  !"  said  a  gay  young  voice  behind 
her.  "What's  the  matter  now?  You  lucky  girl. 
Two  big  boxes  of  roses  to  one  little  girl,  and  yet  you 
seem  to  be  tearing  your  hair  over  something  and  get- 
ting ready  to  do  the  Niobe  act,  if  you  don't  change 
your  mind  and  laugh  instead." 

"  Oh,  Harry,  I'm  so  glad  to  see  you.  I'm  in  such 
a  fix,  and  you  must  help  me  out,  but  I  can't  tell  you 
anything  about  it.' ' 

"Oh,    of  course   I'm   a   genius  at   other  people's 
troubles.      In  a  fix  that  you  can't  tell  me  about,  and   I 
must  help  you  !     What  is  it  all  about,  anyway  ?  " 
"  Those,' '  she  answered,  nodding  toward  the  roses. 

"Those.     Well,  you   are   funny.      I    don't  see  anything  there  to  cause 
you  trouble,  unless  some  of  your  numerous  '  danglers  '  have  been  burglarizing 

168 


a  florist's,  and  they  have  '  gotten  '  you  for  receiving  stolen  goods.    Is  that  it  ?  " 

"  Don't  joke,  Harry,  for  I  am  in  a  fix  really  and  truly,  and  something 
terrible  will  happen  if  I  don't  get  out  of  it  before  to-night.  Look  here," 
showing  him  the  two  envelopes,  "  do  you  know  who  wrote  these  ?  " 

"No,  but  if  I  couldn't  write  any  better  than  either  of  them,  I'd  use  a 
typewriter." 

"You're  perfectly  horrid.  I  don't  see  the  good  of  having  a  brother 
unless  he  knows  things  and  can  do  things  for  people." 

' '  Yes,  none  of  us  are  very  much  good  at  mind  reading, — a  woman's  mind 
particularly.  You've  told  me  nothing  but  that  you  are  in  a  scrape  about 
those  roses,  and  since  you  sat  down  on  me  so  promptly  when  I  tried  to 
guess,  I  don't  see  how  you  can  expect  me  to  do  very  much." 

"  But,  Harry,  I  can't  tell  you  or  any  one  anything  about  it." 

"Well,  I  certainly  can't  help  you,  then,  unless  you  tell  me  what  you 
w^ant  me  to  do." 

"  Here,  then,"  desperately,  giving  him  the  two  notes,  "  and  then  don't 
you  say  a  word,"  and  out  of  the  room  flew  Miss  Nell  with  cheeks  vieing  in 
color  with  the  roses  that  were  the  cause  of  all  the  trouble,  and  two  pink  little 
palms  over  her  ears  to  shut  out  the  peals  of  laughter  that  she  was  sure  would 
follow  her. 

"  Yon  said  you  would  tell  me  7ny  fate  at  the  ball  to-night.  Will  you  not 
7C'ear  my  roses  there  if  there  is  any  hope  for  me  ? 

' '  Yours  devotedly, 

'^fackr 

And  the  second  : 

"  Will  you  not  zvcar  my  roses  to  the  ball  to-night  if  the  anszver you  are  to 
give  me  is  the  one  I  tvish  f  Yours  as  ahvays, 

"  fack.'' 

read  Harry  aloud.      "  But  I  don't  see  yet  what  the  matter  is,"  he  said,  when 
at  length  his  sister  had  come  back. 

"Oh,  can't  you  see?  They  got  mixed.  I  was  out  calling  when  they 
came,  and  I  don't  know  what  sort  either  of  them  sent,  and  I  don't  know 
how  to  find  out." 

"You  little  flirt  !  So  that's  the  trouble.  And  which  Jack  is  it  ?  It's  cer- 
tainly a  good  one  on  you,"  and  off  he  went  into  peals  of  uproarious  mirth, 
in  which,  despite  herself,  Miss  Nell  was  compelled  to  join. 

"  Help  you  out?  Well,  I  guess  not.  You  got  yourself  in  it,  and  now 
you  must  get  yourself  out.  You  can't  expect  me  to  help  some  fellow  to 
make  love  to  my  own  sister,  can  you  ?  " 

169 


"  Harry,  you  are  mean,  and  I  am  not  going  to  speak  to  you  any  more," 
and  she  didn't — for  at  least  thirty  seconds — then  in  a  pleading  tone  : 
"  Harry,  p/ease  tell  me  what  to  do.  Never  mind,  though  ;  I  know,  but  you 
must  get  me  some  more  roses." 

The  glorious  October  moon  is  flooding  the  landscape  with 
its  silver  glamour,  and  the  grounds,  so  beautiful  by  day  with 
their  semi-tropical  luxuriance  of  foliage,  seem  almost  like  fairy- 
land, and  the  shimmer  of  the  moonlight  on  a  white  wrap  might 
well  be  taken  for  the  sheen  of  the  fairy  wings.  Within,  the  ball 
is  at  its  height,  the  brilliant  lights,  the  passionate  throb  of  the 
music,  the  air  heavy  with  the  langourous  odor  of  flowers,  the 
flash  of  bright  jewels  and  the  flash  of  brighter  eyes,  the  gleam 
of  snowy  shoulders  and  the  sound  of  merry  young  voices — all 
are  indeed  suited  for  the  fairies'  court.  Through  it  all  Nellie 
Raymond,  gowned  all  in  pale  pink,  a  pink  rose  in  her  golden 
hair,  more  on  her  corsage,  others  in  her  hands,  her  proud  head 
thrown  back,  her  eyes  sparkling  with  enjoyment,  moves,  a  very 
queen,  ruling  all  men  by  the  divine  right  of  beauty.  The 
women  only  are  rebellious  of  her  sway.  Petted,  flattered, 
complimented  as  she  is,  yet  over  all  her  enjoyment  there  is  a 
little  cloud  rising — a  little  cloud  no  larger  than  the  young  fellow  over  there  in 
the  door,  silent  in  the  midst  of  the  merry  throng,  for  he  has  not  been  near 
her  all  the  evening  nor  scarcely  looked  at  her  since  the  first  swift  glance,  the 
look  for  his  roses,  the  roses  that  she  had  not  worn.  But  which  roses  did  he 
look  for?     If  she  only  knew. 

The  beautiful  strains  of  the  "  Waltz  King's  "  most  exquisite  waltzes 
were  filling  the  rooms  as,  pleading  a  prior  engagement,  she  stepped  through 
one  of  the  large  open  windows  out  on  to  the  veranda,  where  Jack  Carleton — 
the  other  Jack — found  her. 

"Isn't  this  our  dance.  Miss  Raymond?  I've  been  hunting  for  you 
everywhere.  No,  suppose  we  don't  go  in,  please,  there's  such  a  crowd,  and 
I  want  you  to  answer  that  question  that  you  were  to  answer  for  me  to-night, 
but,''  sadly,  "I  suppose  I'm  answered  already,  for  you  haven't  worn  my 
roses." 

"And  I  have  n't  even  thanked  you  for  them.  So  ungrateful  of  me,  too, 
to  forget  it  when  they  were  such  beauties,  just  the  very  prettiest  I  have  seen 
this  season,  and  I  do  thank  you  for  them  very  much." 

But  he  was  not  to  be  put  off"  so.  "  Nell,  sweetheart,"  he  said,  "listen. 
You  know  that  I  love  you,  that  I  have  loved  you  ever  since  you  were  a  little 

170 


thing',  and  that  I  have  never  cared  for  anyone  else.  Can't  you  tell  me  that 
you  care  for  me  just  a  little  ?  I  have  loved  you  so  long — will  you  not  tell  me 
that  you  love  me,  too  ? ' ' 

"Oh,  Jack,  I'm  so  sorry,"  and  there  was  a  break  in  the  sweet  voice, 
"  so  sorry.  I  like  you  ever  so  much,  and  think  that  you  are  the  best  friend 
I  ever  had,  but  I  don't  care  for  you  that  way.  I  almost  wish  I  could,  but  I 
can't.  But,  Jack,"  seeing  the  look  of  pain  on  his  face,  "can't  we  still  be 
friends?     Need  this  make  any  difference  in  that  ?  " 

"I  ask  you  for  the  whole  loaf  and  you  only  offer  me  a  poor  little  half," 
he  laughed  almost  roughly.  "Forgive  me,  I  didn't  mean  that.  I  didn't 
know  what  I  was  saying.  Don't  worry,  it  will  be  all  right  after  a  while. 
I  can't  realize  it  now,  it's  such  a  blow,  for  I  had  been  hoping  so  long 
and  now  I  have  nothing  left,  not  even" —  he  broke  off  abruptly  as  some 
one  came  down  the  veranda  toward  them. 

"Miss  Raymond,  your  mother  asked  me  to  bring  you  this  wrap  ;  she 
fears  it  is  too  cool  here  without  it.  You  don't  know  what  you  are  missing  by 
staying  out  here,  the  music  is  superb.  There,  it  is  starting  again  now,  and 
I   must  find   my  partner,"  and  without  waiting  for  any  reply  he  darted  off. 

"  Shall  we  go  in?  "  Carleton  asked.  "  Some  of  your  partners  will  be 
looking  for  you.  This  is  to  be  our  good-bye,"  he  added  ;  "I  am  going  to 
Central  America  to-morrow.  A  friend  wants  me  to  go  out  therewith  him. 
Good-bye  !  "  He  seized  her  hand,  pressed  it  for  a  moment  between  his  own, 
carried  it  hastily  to  his  lips,  and  he  was  gone. 

She  stepped  inside  again,  but  her  evening  was  spoiled  now.  Big-hearted, 
handsome  Jack  Carleton  gone,  and  the  one  she  had  hoped  to  see  had  not 
been  near  her  the  whole  evening.  Thoroughly  miserable,  she  sought  her 
mother  :  "  Mother,  I'm  so  tired  ;  suppose  we  go  home."  And  that  night 
she  sobbed  herself  to  sleep  and  dreamed  that  she  was  the  Princess  Elizabeth 
and  that  the  "Wars  of  the  Roses"  were  being  fought  again,  over  her.  In 
the  morning  she  awoke,  a  very  woe-begone  picture  of  her  usual  bright  self 

"Why  didn't  he  let  me  tell  him  why  I  didn't  wear  his  roses?  And  he 
didn't  come  near  me  the  whole  evening  ?  Perhaps  he  does  n't  care,  but  he  told 
me  he  did.  Well,  I  don't  care  either,  then.  Perhaps  he  will  come  to-day, 
though.''  And  all  that  day  she  listened  wistfully  at  every  ring  of  the  bell 
for  his  voice  and  step  in  the  hall,  and  yet,  when  he  did  come,  late  in  the 
afternoon,  it  was  a  very  cold  and  haughty  little  maiden  who  greeted  him, 
very  different  from  the  bright,  winsome  one  he  knew,  and  one  who  resolutely 
led  the  conversation  into  such  impersonal  channels  as  would  give  him  no 
opportunity  to  say  what  he  so  much  wished  to  say,  and,  strangest  of  all, 

171 


what  she  so  much  wanted  to  hear,  but  she  could  not  keep  it  up  long, — the 
ball  of  the  evening  before  was  a  topic  of  too  much  importance  to  them  both 
to  be  so  utterly  disregarded,  and  soon  he  saw  his  opportunity. 

"  I  had  hoped  so  much  that  you  would  wear  my 
roses  there,"  he  said.  "Was  I  right  in  thinking  that 
you  meant  that  to  be  my  answer?  I  can't  take  it  that 
way,  though  I  thought  I  could,  and  I  must  hear  you 
tell  me  with  your  own  lips  that  there  is  no  hope  for  me 
before  I  can  realize  it.  Which  is  it  to  be,  Nellie?"  he 
jjleaded,  trying  in  vain  to  catch  a  glimpse  of  the  down- 
cast eyes,  "yes  or  no?"  Then  the  eyes  were  raised 
to  his  for  one  fleeting  moment, — and  he  knew. 

A  few  minutes  later,  a  lovely  face,  all  suffused  with 
blushes  now,  was  lifted  toward  his  own  and  a  soft  voice 
murmured  :  "  But,  Jack,  what  color  were  those  roses?" 
Then  she  told  him  the  whole  story,  just  as  I  have  told 
it  to  you.

castles  in  the  H^^« 

There  is  a  time  in  youth's  sweet  prime 

When  Hfe  is  bright  and  fair, 
And  when  we  all,  both  great  and  small. 

Build  "castles  in  the  air." 
Though  thej  were  fine,  in  olden  time — 

The  chateaux  in  far  Spain— 
We  know  too  well  how  soon  they  fell, 

And  we  were  flat  again. 

When  first  we  quaff  the  joyous  draught 

Of  love,  we  never  think 
Our  girl  so  sweet  has  Western  feet. 

And  lacketh  sore  the  "  chink  "  ; 
When  years  have  sped,  and  love  has  fled, 

And,  with  experience  crusted, 
We're  struck  so  on  some  other  one. 

We  know  that  castle  busted. 

The  Freshman  young,  with  boasting  tongue, 

E'er  Sophs  have  worked  their  will. 
His  locks  are  long,  and  gay  his  song, 

He  thinks  he  owns  the  "  Hill  "  ; 
But  gone  his  cheek,  blacked  a  I'Afrique, 

When  Sophs  have  clipped  his  hair  ; 
Lost  is  his  dash,  and  with  a  crash, 

His  castle  's  in  the  air. 

A  dancer  bright,  with  pockets  light. 

And  many  a  bill  that  weighed. 
He  thought  to  woo  Dame  Pleasure,  too. 

So  "  German  Club  "  fees  paid  ; 
With  many  a  "  stag  "  his  spirits  flag. 

In  "  leads  "  he  had  no  share  ; 
He  froze  till  "blue,"  the  german  through,— 

His  castle  's  in  the  air. 

The  man  who  toils  o'er  midnight  oils. 

And  hopes  to  make  a  "  one," 
May  think  that  brain  will  always  gain. 

And  trusts  to  work  well  done  ; 
For  Harrington  he  digs  with  force, 

Great  is  his  sorrow  there  : 
None  e'er  got  two — most  men  he  threw — 

That  castle  's  in  the  air. 

The  beauty,  too,  in  white  and  blue. 

And  feet  that  never  lag. 
Who'll  pose  and  sigh,  and  do  or  die. 

To  wear  one  little  "  rag  "  ; 
Some  other  girl  the  "  rags  "  unfurl, 

In  them  she  has  no  share  ; 
Gone  is  her  style,  and  for  a  while 

Her  castle  's  in  the  air.

/T^^J^^ 


Chapel  Hill,  January  7,  1897. 
Dear  Ma  : 

Although  I  am  not  in  a  psychological  condition  to  write 
to-night,  yet  I  will  keep  my  promise  to  send  you  my  grades. 
On  psychology  I  made  i  ;  on  all  the  others  except  math 
I  flunked  (beg  your  pardon  ;  that's  the  college  slang  for  "didn't 
pass  ").  On  math  I  made  4 — the  same  old  grade.  I  never  could 
understand,  till  I  took  psychology,  why  I  couldn't  learn  to  appre- 
ciate mathematical  processes.  But  Prof.  Williams  has  made  it 
perfectly  plain  to  me.  It  is,  as  I  see  now,  as  he  says, 
that  there  is  no  reasoning  in  it,  but  just  a  continual 
repetition  of  2  and  2  make  4.  (Certainly  that's  the 
way  it  has  gone  with  my  marks  for  three  years  ;  by 
pyschological  processes  a  man  more  commonly  gets  a  5. ) 
Then,  besides,  math,  pure  or  applied,  has  to  do  solely  with  the  crass 
external  \sox\<\  (that  word  "crass,"  you  know,  is  from  Emerson,  the  fellow 
who  wrote  "A  Yellow  Aster,"  and  "The  Earl's  Atonement").  But  in 
psychology  we  deal  in  snb/ective  individuality,  and  the  Roman  Catholic 
church,  blooded  stock  farms,  and  the  "flower  in  the  crannied  wall." 

I  tell  you,  Ma,  I  have  decided  to  drop  math  (I  w^ould  drop  the  others 
if  they  hadn't  already  dropped  me),  and  make  a  specialty  of  psychology. 
I  know  you  will  approve  of  my  decision  ;  for  psychology  is  the  most  relig- 
ious study  in  college.  Prof.  Williams  lectures  now  and  then  on  "  Philosophy 
and  Life — 'Specially  Philosophy,"  and  talks  real  pious  to  us  lots  of  times. 
Then  he  gets  reports  from  us  every  week  of  the  logical  and  psychological 
errors  in  the  sermons  we  heard  the  Sunday  before.  You  see,  he  does  this 
to  encourage  church  attendance. 

I  tell  you,  I  hope  there  will  be  psychology  in  heaven,  though  I  can't 
help  wondering  who  will  be  over  there  to  teach  it,  and  I  believe  we  zvill  have 
it  over  there  ;  psychology  means  the  doctrine  oi  souls,  you  know.  Of  course, 
though,  some  of  the  boys  are  heathenish  enough  to  swear  that  if  there  is  any 
psychology  in  heaven,  they  hope  it  will  be  elective. 

^         ^         '^         '^ 
And  then  the  course  in  psychology  being  so  logical,  is  so  easy.     If  it 
wasn't  for  having  to  study  math  all  the  hour  on  psychology  class,  I  would 
enjoy  that  hour  immensely.     There  is  a  fellow  here  who  is  wonderfully  deep 

1T4 


and  original  ;  and  so  he  and  Prof.  Williams  spend  the  hour  in  debate  about 
the  points  on  which  they  can't  agree  ;  and  so  the  rest  of  us  just  listen — or 
sleep. 

Then  on  examination  it's  perfectly  easy  to  make  i,  though  very  few- 
make  it,  simply  because  they  try  to  answer  Prof,  Williams'  questions.  Now, 
I  learned  long  ago  better  sense  than  that  ;  and,  besides,  the  Seniors  put  me 
on  to  it.  Prof.  Williams,  you  know,  prides  himself  on  originality,  both  for 
himself  and  his  class.  He  urges  every  man  to  think  for  himself,  and  he  has 
such  a  tender  conscience  himself  that  he  always  seems  in  mortal  terror  for 
fear  some  of  us  may  believe  somethinghehastold  us.  So  just  before  examina- 
tion I  get  a  volume  of  Comte  or  Schopenhauer  out  of  the  Library  (as  Prof. 
Williams  doesn't  believe  a  word  either  of  these  authors  says,  I  think  it  is 
original  for  me  to  disagree  with  him  and  agree  with  them).  Then  I  hunt  up 
a  few  long  quotations  from  these  books  and  memorize  them.  (For  this 
Schopenhauer  is  best  ;  Comte' s  sentences  are  all  too  short  and  simple  ;  they 
are  not  long  enough  to  strike  one  as  very  original. )  Then  on  examination 
I  modify  some  of  these  quotations  slightly  (it  would  be  dishonest,  you  know, 
to  put  every  word  just  the  same)  and  put  them  down  as  answers  to  some  of 
the  questions — it  doesn't  make  much  difference  which  ;  Prof.  Williams  justly 
gives  me  credit  for  thinking  for  myself,  and  a  i. 

How  sorry  I  do  feel  for  the  poor  fools  who  persist  in  trying  to  answer  all 

questions  in  plain  English.      Plain   English  may  suit  a  man  like  Webb — they 

say  he  likes  it  very  plain  ;    but,  of  course,  it  won't  go  with  a  man  like  Prof. 

Williams. 

■>i.  i^  -^f.  ~>f. 

I  tell  you.  Ma,  a  great  change  is  coming  over  me  in  my  way  of  looking 
at  life  and  its  majestic  problems  and  overpowering  truths.  No  boy  with  any 
brains  at  all  can  listen  to  Prof.  Williams'  lectures  on  class  and  his  impressive 
addresses  on  "Philosophy  and  Life — 'Specially  Philosophy,"  without  losing 
all  interest  in  the  nonsense  and  frivolity  of  society  (I  spell  it  with  a  little  let- 
ter now,  you  see).  For  instance,  when  for  courtesy's  sake  we  can't  decline 
to  go  to  a  reception,  we  psychology  students — I  mean,  of  course,  the  ones 
who  love  it — don't  waste  our  time  in  the  nonsense  of  the  hour,  but  we  follow 
Prof.  Williams'  example  and  get  off  in  a  corner  and  silently  watch  the  faces 
of  that  thoughtless  throng.  (And,  of  course,  now  and  then  we  go  over  to 
his  corner  and  compare  notes  with  him — he  allows  us  to  do  that.)     I  tell  you 

it's  deepening. 

;;<  *  ^  * 

But  time  fails  me  to  tell  you  of  half  the  advantages  of  this  delightful 
course.  Suffice  it  to  say,  as  in  the  beginning,  that  I  shall  make  it  my  spe- 
cialty ;     all  the  more,   since   it   is  so   much  easier  to  master  than  math,  for 

175 


instance,  and  so  saves  valuable  time.     I   think   I  will  know  all  about  it  by 
June,  at  the  present  rate. 

Tell  Pa  that  I  am  sorry  I  can't  make  a  specialty  of  math  as  he  had 
hoped.  But  if  he  had  ever  studied  subjective  individuality ,  he  would  know 
that  great  minds  do  not  run  in  the  same  channel.  I  will  be  the  pride  of 
the  family  in  psychology  as  he  is  in  math. 

Lovingly  yours, 

Jim.

TO  THE  STUDENTS. 

Psychology  teaches  us  that  the  epithelium  cells  of  the 
human  stomach  are  all  hollow,  and  need  to  be  filled  with 
life-giving  nutriment.  Nothing  performs  this  function  so 
well  as  cow's  milk. 

I  will  be  glad  to  furnish  milk  in  any  quantities  to  my 
fellow-sufferers  at  moderate  (?)  prices. 

Yours  to  serve,

five  Minutes  of  football. 

IT  IS  a  cold   November  day.     The  clouds   hang  low,  in   grey  grimncss. 
There  is  an  air  of  somber  seriousness  about  them,  and  the  wind,  coming 

in  fitful  gusts,  intensifies  this  impression. 

It  is  a  football  field.  The  grand  stand,  beribboned  and  decked  with  inter- 
twined colors,  with  hosts  of  white-faced  inhabitants,  whose  flags  and  ribbons 
make  gay  its  roomy  interior  ;  the  big,  open  stands  that  stretch  around  the 
field,  likewise  caparisoned  and  filled  with  excited  masculinity  —  college 
students,  alumni,  business  men,  street  gamins — form  a  sharp  contrast  to  the 
gloom  of  the  day. 

At  intervals  of  thirty  seconds  for  the  last  hour  and  a  half  these  stands 
have  been  bursting  into  volcanic  eruptions  of  sound  and  waving  color,  as  one 
or  the  other  of  the  two  teams  that  are  struggling  out  in  the  open  space  in 
front  has  had  the  advantage.  Now  the  cheers  subside,  and  for  a  moment 
the  wind  can  be  heard  as  it  whistles  around  the  corner  of  the  grand  stand. 
The  twenty-two  young  men  in  canvas  are  jumping  to  their  positions  again. 
All  eyes,  all  thought  of  those  present  are  upon  them. 

A  game  of  football,  between  rival  colleges,  differs  from  a  battle  only  in 
the  fact  that  there  are  fewer  casualties.  The  sentiment  is  the  same.  For  the 
time  being — to  the  players,  to  the  partisan  spectators—  the  issues  at  stake  are 
as  great.  The  same  elements  of  character  go  to  make  a  successful  ball 
player  as  a  successful  soldier.  Loyalty  and  patriotism  are  at  the  root  of  the 
worthiness  of  either.  For  the  soldier,  for  the  ball  player,  love  of  country, 
devotion  to  principle,  sacrifice  of  self,  are  absolutely  essential.  In  battle,  the 
soldier,  without  spur  of  individual  hate  or  enmity,  must  fight  with  all  his 
strength  against  those  who  antagonise  the  things  he  loves.  He  must  be  part 
of  a  fighting  machine,  and  do  his  part  and  face  emergencies  without  ques- 
tion.     So  it  is  with  the  ball  player. 

For  an  hour  these  two  little  picked  armies  have  struggled  and  clashed 
together  out  there  on  the  frozen,  white-marked  field.  It  has  been  a  glorious 
contest — fast  and  fierce  and  unrelenting.  Once  the  ball  has  been  forced  over 
the  last  one  of  those  white  lines,  and  one  set  of  partisans  has  gone  into  ten 
minutes  of  delirium  over  their  advantage.  The  first  and  the  greater  part  of 
the  second  half  have  gone.  The  score  is  four  to  nothing,  but  those  with  the 
odds  against  them  are  fighting  desperately.  They  are  gaining  slowly  but 
surely.  Those  with  them  measure  the  distance  to  the  goal-line  and  groan  at 
its  extent  ;  those  other  partisans  measure  it  too,  and  think  fearfiilly  what  a 
short  distance  it  is. 

I  So 


Suddenly  the  stillness  is  rent  with  a  roar.  It  is  like  an  explosion  in  its 
brief  intensity  ;  like  the  thunder  of  a  cannon,  in  the  lull  that  follows 
ominously  in  the  instant's  wait  while  the  gunners  ram  in  another  charge  and 
peer  out  the  enemy  through  the  low-hanging  smoke.  Flags  flutter  spon- 
taneously with  the  outburst  of  sound.  Hats  bob  wildly  against  the  back- 
ground of  the  sky.  Then  all  is  still.  You  can  hear  the  heavy  breathings  of 
the  crowd,  bent  over,  with  its  eyes  agleam  with  the  battle  fever.  You  hear 
the  rapid  pulsating  thump,  thump,  thump  of  the  players  running  over 
the  frozen  ground. 

The  cause  of  the  outbreak  is  one  of  those  rarely  glittering  successes  in 
a  game.  The  experts  down  on  the  side-lines  will  tell  in  their  detailed  accounts 
just  how  it  was  done.  The  people  packed  in  the  stands  don't  know  and  don't 
care.  What  they  see  is  a  little  mass  of  men  in  striped  jerseys  that  seems  to 
bore  its  way  through  opposing  forces.  There  is  a  swaying,  twisting,  grinding 
struggle  for  a  moment.  Then  three  men  emerge  from  the  crush.  Two  of 
them,  fierce  as  stampeded  buftalo,  with  their  dirt-grimed  faces  and  shaggy 
hair,  thunder  along  in  front  of  the  third.  This  latter  one  looks  small  as  he 
scurries  along  behind  his  blockers,  his  head  tucked  low  down,  his  arm  close 
around  the  precious  ball.  Two  players  spring  at  him  savagely.  One  of  them 
strikes  the  great  blocker  in  front  and  falls  prostrate  on  his  face.  The  other 
is  at  the  stocky  carrier  of  the  ball  like  a  tiger.  A  hand  decends  upon  his 
head,  and  an  arm  like  willowy  steel  gives  him  a  mighty  shove.  His  impetus 
carries  him  down.     He  sprang  an  instant  too  soon.     He  has  missed. 

Now  the  three  men  are  clear,  running  in  plain  sight  in  the  open.  Now 
comes  the  roar,  hushed,  because  all  eyes  are  on  Carolina's  full-back.  He  is 
the  one  obstacle  between  that  on-rushing  trio  and  the  goal-line.  The  goal- 
line  reached  and  the  game  is  lost.  Upon  him  careen  the  three — the  little 
man  of  springy  steel  behind  his  giant  protectors — the  fleet-footed  one,  with 
legs  like  engine  pistons,  and  will  like  a  cyclone.  Will  he,  can  he  stand  the 
shock  ? 

The  full-back  realizes  his  responsibility  in  a  general  sort  of  way.  He 
knows  that  he  stands  between  defeat  and  victory  ;  that  on  him  depends  the 
superiority  of  two  rival  colleges  for  a  year  at  least.  Did  he  have  time,  as  he 
rushes  along,  he  would  think  of  the  stands  packed  with  his  college  mates, 
biting  their  nails  in  nervous  ecstacy.  He  would  think  of  the  crowd  of 
students  hanging  around  the  telegraph  office  in  the  college  town  in  anxious 
expectancy.  He  would  think  of  the  hundreds  of  alumni  scattered  through 
his  State,  looking  up  often  from  their  work  and  pausing  to  think  of  ' '  the 
boys,"  and  how  their  battle  is  waging.  He  would  think,  perhaps,  of  how 
some  far-away  girl,  with  white  and  blue  ribbon  on,  is  thinking  of  and  fearing 
for  his  safety  in  womanly  timidity,  and  of  how  she  will  skim  the  accounts  of  the 


game  till  she  comes  to  those  plays  in  which  he  figures.  He  would  think,  in 
short,  how  everything — life  itself,  for  the  moment — depends  on  the  result  ; 
the  honor  of  his  college,  the  months  of  training,  of  anxious  care  and  worry. 

But  he  has  no  time  to  think,  save  generally.  They  are  almost  face  to 
face.  They  are  upon  him  !  The  full-back's  shoulders  droop,  and  his  head 
hangs  low  forward,  like  a  bull-dog's.  His  legs  seem  to  brace  for  the  shock. 
His  face,  as  one  catches  a  glimpse  of  it,  is  a  study.  In  its  lines  you  can  read 
an  agony  of  suspense,  hardened  with  grim  determination.  The  blood  on  the 
jacket,  the  swollen  lips,  the  bandage  'round  the  head,  lend  an  air  of  weird 
desperation. 

He  rarely  misses  a  tackle,  but  now  the  crowd  is  anxiously  silent.  It  is 
the  crucial  test.    Dreadful  fear,  exultant  hope,  run  through  the  opposite  stands. 

Then  comes  the  crash  !  The  full-back  has  dived  headforemost  through 
the  mass.  The  two  big  blockers  stagger  with  the  collision  and  topple  over 
his  bent  form.  His  arms  seek  that  fierce  little  one  with  the  ball,  who  strikes 
out  viciously  with  his  hand. 

But  now  a  set  of  steel  muscles  closes  around  those  oak-like  legs.  The 
roar  thunders  out  again  !  There  is  a  squirming  knot  of  four  players  on  the 
ground.     The  rush  has  been  stopped  ! 

Now  the  stands  awake  again.  Flags  and  hats  fly  once  more  ;  canes  with 
bright  colors  upon  them  wave  enthusiastically  ;  men  jump  up  and  down,  their 
arms  swaying  like  Jacks-in-the-box.  Both  sides  are  cheering — the  one  for  the 
brilliant  gain,  the  other  for  the  cool  excellence  of  the  man  who  filled  the 
breach.  The  sound  comes  in  a  steady  roar  ;  it  sinks  and  seems  to  draw  its 
breath,  to  peal  forth  once  more  in  tumultuous  triumph. 

Through  all  this  sounds  the  shrill  whistle  of  the  referee,  calling  to  the 
battle.  The  mass  of  players  untwists  itself  The  two  big  men  and  the  little 
one  with  the  ball  emerge  ;  the  other  lies  prostrate.  A  knot  of  players  gather 
'round  ;  substitutes  in  sweaters  hasten  with  water-buckets  ;  a  doctor  kneels 
at  his  side. 

Again  the  crowd  is  in  anxious  suspense,  but  presently  there  is  a  move- 
ment among  the  group  of  players.  Three  substitutes  pick  up  the  form  and 
start  across  the  field.  Another  strips  off  his  sweater  at  the  captain's  com- 
mand.    His  face  is  alight  with  a  great  happiness, — he  can  do  his  part  ! 

The  stands  on  which  his  friends  sit  send  up  a  cheer  as  the  disabled 
player  is  borne  past.  He  raises  his  head  and  waves  a  hand  in  response. 
Then  a  generous  shout  comes  from  all  sides  ;  it  is  appreciation  of  an  act  that 
was  noble  because  it  was  a  duty.  Any  one  of  these  twenty-two  would  have 
done  the  same. 

But  the  day  is  saved  !

'^hc   ]Vormal   ©irl. 

Of  all  the  fair  maids  "neath  Southern  sun, 
The  pretty  Normal  girl's  the  one 
To  whom  the  'Varsity  boys  e'er  run 

With  love  A.  P., 
And  oft  where  every  other  fails, 
The  girl  who  from  the  Normal  hails 
Can  rule  with  ease  those  love-lorn  males 

From  U.  N.  C. 

Would  I  not  for  such  vacation, 
And  such  normal  recreation, 
Brave  "  E.  A."  and  e'en  probation 

'Till  I  die? 
Would  I  not  endure  much  woe, 
And  many  studious  habits  show, 
To  be  allowed  once  more  to  go 

To  N.  and  I.  ? 

Although  we  took  the  bitter  pill. 
And  had  of  Normal  jilts  our  fill, 
Yet  now  our  trembling  hearts  are  still 

All  in  a  whirl. 
O  Muse,  descending  from  above, 
Inspire  me  now  where'er  I  rove 
To  loudly  sing  of  how  I  love 

A  Normal  girl  !

Recommendations. 

Dr.  Thomas  Hume,  D.D.,  etc.  : 

After  taking  the  English  courses  prescribed  by  you  I  find  myself,  as  a  result,  a  mis- 
sionary in  Central  Turkey.  The  natives  pronounce  my  interpretations  of  Shakespeare 
as  good  as  any  they  ever  heard.  In  regard  to  the  order  in  your  class  room,  I  will  say 
that  it  is  no  worse  than  that  seen  in  the  recent  Armenian  riots. 

Respectfully, 

I.  N.  Truble. 


Prof.  K.  Pomeroy  Harrington,  Esq.,  etc. 

Sir  :  I  recently  received  from  my  agent  a  batch  of  your  2d  Latin  lectures,  which 
we  induced  spies  to  distribute  among  the  rebels.  As  a  result  their  homes  are  desolate, 
their  forces  scattered  and  many  of  them  plunge  into  the  sea  at  sight  of  a  piece  of  paper. 
Victoria  Signo  f     You  shall  not  be  unrewarded  by  His  Majesty  the  King. 

Gratefully, 

Ugioro  Wevler, 

Genl.,  etc. 


Mr.  a.  Rheinstukisky,  Director  Sandwich  Islands  Conservatory  of  Music. 

Dear  Sir  :  You  could  not  do  better  than  employ  Mr.  Avoirdupois  Holmes  as  an 
instructor  in  your  celebrated  institution.  His  renditions  are  quite  original,  and  the  wild 
and  phantasmagoric  contortions  indulged  in  by  him  during  his  performances  will  har- 
monize perfectly  with  the  cannibal  dances  of  the  natives.  He  would  never  be  recog- 
nized as  a  foreigner.  Sincerely  yours, 

B.  C.  Stubbs.

^'Cwas  Qvcr  'Chus. 


We  slowly  glided  through  the  dreamy  waltz, 

Her  soft,  white  hand — which  'twas  my  hope  to  gain- 

I  gently  clasped,  while  two  divine  brown  eyes 
Looked  slowly  up  to  mine,  then  down  again. 

Outside  the  hall  we  strolled,  until  we  found 
A  shadowed  corner  large  enough  for  two, 

And  there  I  told,  mid  music's  swelling  sound, 
That  old,  old  story  which  is  ever  new. 

My  arms  encircled  close  her  dainty  form, 

Her  little  head  upon  my  shoulder  lay  ; 
The  music  and  the  dance  had  lost  their  charm, 

All  thoughts,  except  of  her,  were  far  away. 

But  happiness  like  this  can  never  last, 
As  I  was  doomed  to  very  soon  discover  ; 

My  room-mate's  were  the  arms  that  held  me  fast, — 
I  waked,  my  vision  gone,  when  he  turned  over. 

C,  '96. 

I  took  up  my  tablet 

To  write  you  a  sonnet, 
But  no  thought  of  mine 

Would  form  in  words  on  it — 
A  rondeau  I  next  tried 

In  praise  of  your  bonnet, 
But  equally  luckless 

I  did  abandon  it  ; 
Naught  else  could  I  think  of 

Save  just  this — "Dog  gon'  it."

E  WAS  A  FAMILIAR  sight  on  the  College  campus,  was 
old  Jerry,  a  bent  old  negro,  with  palsied  hands,  and  a  little 
basket  of  peanuts,  or  apples  or  cherries  in  their  seasons,  for 
sale  to  the  students,  and  always  with  his  cheerful  greeting 
when  any  one  addressed  him  : — 

"Morning,  boss  man;  hope  you  are  well  this  morn- 
ing," and  always  ready  to  talk  on  everything — save  one  subject  only. 
"  lerry,  who  burnt  the  belfry?"  never  failed  to  bring  about  an 
indignant  turning  away  and  the  reply,  "  Students'  bizness  is  students' 
bizness,  dat's  what  it  is,  an'  you  hadn't  oughter  talk  like  dat,"  and 
the  old  man  would  move  slowly  away,  shaking  his  head  and  muttering  to 
himself  in  indignation  that  any  one  should  seek  to  pry  into  his  secret,  for 
such  it  was,  and  one  carefully  guarded  by  him  through  long  years. 

Years  ago,  before  the  wave  of  civil  war  had  swept  over  the  country, 
leaving  all  the  Southland  in  wreck  and  ruin  after  its  passage,  the  old  Univer- 
sity was  the  educational  center  of  the  Southern  States,  and  here  came  the 
favorite  sons  of  the  South  to  garner  knowledge.  Incidentally  they  helped 
along  the  hours  as  they  best  might  in  the  sleepy  little  town  by  all  manner  of 
pranks  on  the  faculty,  the  town's  people  and  on  each  other,  the  recollections 
of  which  have  come  down  to  this  day,  losing  a  little  of  their  original  amount 
of  truth,  taking  on  much  of  the  broideries  of  imagination  in  the  handing 
down  to  the  successive  generations  of  wide-eyed  young  Freshmen,  gaining 
now,  perhaps,  for  the  first  time  some  inkling  of  the  fact  that  the  staid,  gray- 
haired  gentleman,  irreverently  called  "the  old  man,"  may  have  been  one  of 
the  gayest  of  the  gay  young  birds  of  his  college  days,  and  therein  finding 
vast  stores  of  consolation  for  misdemeanors,  past,  present  and  to  come. 

In  those  old  days  the  College  bell,  the  famed  of  song  and  story,  was  not 
in  its  cupola  in  the  "  Old  South,"  but  was  swung  in  a  wooden  belfrj'  tower, 
whence  its  pealing  notes  summoned  to  the  eai^ly  prayers.  Its  sweetest  music 
told  that  the  hours  of  recitation  were  past,  but  withal  it  was  a  loved  sound 
ringing  out  the  hours  in  its  deep,  melodious  tones.  However,  irreverent 
youth  is  no  respecter  of  persons,  as  even  "  Pres."  himself  was  well  aware, 
and  fun  must  be  had.  'Twas  a  necessity  of  existence  then,  as  now.  The  only 
question  was  what  to  do,  and  how  to  do  it  without  getting  caught,  for  even 
in  those  unprogressive  days  the  faculty  had  the  unpleasant  habit  of  catching 
the  ringleaders  and  giving  them  a  bad  quarter  of  an  hour  in  faculty  meeting, 
and  they  were  dreadful  things — those  faculty  meetings.  What  to  do,  then, 
187 


was  the  question.  Of  course,  it  must  be  something  to  create  excitement  ;  it 
were  no  fun  else.  If  it  were  a  mystery,  so  much  the  better  ;  and  that  there 
was  a  spice  of  dangerous  mischief  in  it,  something  that  would  make  "the 
faculty  ' '  suddenly  metamorphose  their  staid,  be-spectacled  selves  into  a 
corps  of  amateur  detectives,  nothing  more  could  be  left  for  any  one  to 
desire.  It  was  moved,  seconded  and  unanimously  carried  that  something 
must  be  done.  But  what  ?  Many  plans  were  proposed,  discussed  and  tabled, 
when  with  bated  breath — "  Burn  the  belfry."  Some  mind  had  risen  to  the 
great  emergency,  the  plot  was  in  train,  and  secrecy  was  the  word. 

"  The  witching  hour  of  midnight"  has  passed,  and  in  that  hour  when 
no  restless  cock  crows,  best  fitted  of  all  for  deeds  of  darkness — or  light — as 
this,  they  meet  again,  and  soon  the  little  red  tongues  go  lapping,  licking 
about  the  old  timbers,  like  some  serpent  tonguing  over  its  victim.  There  is 
a  rush  and  a  roar,  as  the  tire,  sure  now  of  its  prey,  darts  upward,  cutting  a 
vivid  gash  in  the  blackness,  shining  full  in  the  face  of  old  jerry — young 
Jerry  then.  What  means  were  used  to  silence  him  no  one  knows,  but 
effectual  ones  they  were,  for  to  his  dying  day  he  would  never  tell  who  was 
concerned  in  it.  The  rest  of  the  story  if  you  liked,  but  that  never.  "  Stu- 
dents' bizness  is  students'  bizness." 

"I  was  young  den,  boss,  an'  was  courtin'  one  of  dese  hifalutin',  big- 
gitty  yaller  gals  dat  lived  on  one  of  de  plantations  'bout  three  miles  from 
town,  an'  I'd  been  out  dere  dat  night,  an"  when  I  was  comin'  back  I  heard 
somebody  projickin'  'round  dat  belfry,  an'  I  says  to  myself,  '  Dat's  some  of 
dem  devilish  students  up  to  some  meanness  or  nudder,  an'  I'm  goin'  to  see.' 
An'  dey  was,  too.  Dey'd  bring  a  whole  lot  of  chips  an'  leaves  an'  trash,  an' 
put  'em  all  around  an'  soak  'em  wid  oil,  an'  dey  nigh  about  painted  her  with 
it,  an'  den  dey  touched  her  off;  an'  de  way  it  do  burn  was  a  sight  !  I'd  seed 
what  dey  was  up  to,  an'  was  just  gwine  away,  case  I  knowed  dat  wan't  no 
salubrious  place  for  no  nigger  'bout  den,  but  dey  seed  me  an'  cotch  me,  an' 
when  dey  lemme  go  I  didn't  stay  'round  dere  no  longer  ;  no  sah,  an'  I 
never  heard  nothin'  'bout  dat  belfry  burnin'  till  nex  dav  nother,  you  be- 
lieve me.  Man,  she  suttinly  was  a  fire  !  Dese  bonfires  you  'uns  has  dese 
days  aint  nothin'  to  it.  De  nex  day  it  was  jus  like  you'd  stirred  up  a  bee- 
gum  wid  a  stick.  De  president  was  runnin'  about  like  er  ol'  hen  what 
aint  got  but  one  chicken  an'  don't  know  where  dat  one  is,  an'  all  de  res'  of 
de  faculty  is  mighty  nigh  as  bad,  but  it  don't  do  no  good,  for  dey  never 
find  out  who  did  it." 

"  Well,  Jerry,  who  did  do  it  ?  It  can't  hurt  any  one  to  tell  now  ;  " — but 
"  Students'  bizness  is  students'  bizness  ;  dats  what  it  is,"  would  come  back 
to  me  indignantly,  as  the  old  darkey  hobbled  off;  so  now  that  old  Jerry  is 
gone,  "Who  burned  the  belfry  ?  "  like  the  famous  "Who  hit  Billy  Patter- 
son? "  will  go  down  to  posterity  one  of  the  unsolved  problems.

Hnswers  to  C<5^*^^spondents. 

(In  this  column  the  Editors  will  endeavor  to  answer  any  questions  of  general  interest.) 

Constant  Reader.— We  have  not  a  biography  of  E.  L.  Harris  at  hand,  but  learn 
from  the  "Cyclopedia  of  Names  "  that 'as  a  youth  he  was  very /a^/.  He  has  gotten 
over  this  entirely. 

H.  C.  C-\v-L-s,  Jr. — (a.)  Your  hair  is  a  handsome  red.  {b.)  A  good  face-wash 
for  you  would  be  a  mixture  of  equal  parts  of  sulphur,  sweet  gum  and  turpentine. 
Apply  vigorously  every  ten  minutes  with  a  stiff  wire  brush. 

Wji.  C-n. — This  is  not  a  matrimonial  bureau.  A\'e  will  say,  however,  that  we  do 
not  know  a  blonde  lady  who  would  like  to  correspond  with  a  single  gentleman  for  fun. 

H.  H.  W-M-s.— (fl.)  What  is  life  ?  {b.)  What  am  I  ?  (c.)  What  is  truth  ?  {a.)  Look 
in  any  reputable  dictionary,  [b.)  We  would  prefer  to  answer  by  private  letter,  (r.) 
Adolphus  Williamson  Mangum  is  the  best  authority. 

P.  H.  El-v. — We  do  not  know  of  anything  that  will  remove  ink  from  postage 
stamps,     {b.)  You  are  right,  it  is  bad  form  to  conceal  even  "  Kings  "  up  your  sleeve. 

J.  H.  Andr-ws. — You  will  doubtless  have  some  difficulty  in  finding  a  college  where 
diplomas  are  to  be  purchased  with  brass. 

W.  D.  T-v. — We  cannot  answer  your  question,  "  Does  love  come  to  every  man  ?  " 
There  are  a  great  many  base  imitations  of  love,  and  one  has  to  learn  by  that  divining 
rod,  instinct,  to  tell  which  is  true  love  and  which  is  not. 

B-R-T-N  Cr-ge. — (rt.)We  confess  our  inability  to  inform  you  of  the  number  of  steps 
to  Jacob's  ladder,     [b.)  John  Milton  was  the  author  of  "Paradise  Lost." 

E.  M.  L-ND. — You  inay  rest  assured  that  you  will  not  be  alluded  to  in  this  publica- 
tion as  "  Freshman  "  Land,  and  that  nothing  will  be  said  about  the  difficulty  of  descend- 
ing the  South  Building  steps  after  the  lights  are  out. 

Sk-ts  N-wby. — It  is  not  very  probable  that  Queen  Victoria  will  care  to  correspond 
with  you  with  matrimonial  intentions. 

F.  A.  G-DG-R. — [a.)  We  regret  that  we  could  not  find  space  to  print  yowx  name  in 
the  Hellenian  as  many  times  as  you  suggested,  but  we  have  done  the  best  we  could 
for  you.  (b.)  From  your  description  of  yourself  we  should  unhesitatingly  pronounce 
you  a  very  swell  dresser. 

F.  C-K-R.— Coffee  is  not  commonly  supposed  to  possess  any  into.xicating  properties. 
The  fact  that  it  occasionally  makes  you  "tipsy  "  is  due,  no  doubt,  to  some  constitutional 
derangement.     You  had  better  consult  your  physician.

One  more  unfortunate, 
Making  no  moan, 

Rashly  importunate, — 
Williams  has  thrown  ! 


Speak  to  him  tenderly, 
Treat  him  with  care  ; 

Fashioned  so  slenderly. 
Sad  is  his  air. 


Look  at  his  garments. 
Clinging  like  cerements  ; 

Limp  hangs  his  hair. 

Think  of  him  mournfully. 

Judge  him  not  scornfully, — 
You  have  been  there. 


Where  the  lamp  quivers. 
All  the  night  shivers 

This  luckless  wight. 
His  the  one  casement, 
From  belfry  to  basement, 

Showing  a  light. 


Thus  he  worked  boldly. 
But  Williams  coldly 

Ambitions  slew. 
Picture  it,  think  of  it — 
You  on  the  brink  of  it — 

That  man  he  threw. 


Sore  from  philosophy, 
Mad  from  psychology. 

Wishes  he  now 
Swift  to  be  hurled 
Anywhere,  anyhow. 

Out  of  the  world  !

Dr.  Battle  (on   Political   Economy  class) — "Mr.  Craige,  where  would 
you  go  to  learn  exchange  ?  " 

Mr.  Craige — "To  Political  Economy,  I  suppose." 


A  Question  :     Why  is  Frank  Rogers  like  a  brook  running  over  pebbly 
ground  ? 

The  answer  :     Because  he  is  noisv  but  shallow. 


Prof.  Harrington  (on  5th  Latin  exam)  —  "Explain  the  reference  in 
Progenies  Thial  f  ' ' 

Mr.  Cheek'' s  reply — "  I  have  doubtless  heard  of  this  distinguished  lady, 
but  cannot  now  locate  her." 


Dr.  Battle — "  What  is  a  court-martial,  Mr.  Nichols?" 
Mr.  N. — He's  an  officer  in  the  court,  sir." 


Conundrum  :     Why  is  Joe  Graham  like  flannel? 
Because  he  shrinks  from  water. 


Dr.    Venable   (on   Chemistry  class) — "Mr.  Lockett,   how   does   H  Br O 
occur?  " 

Mr.  Lockett — "  It  occurs  in  nature." 

Dr.    Venable — "  No  ;  like  some  students,  it  has  to  be  prepared." 


A  New  Book  :  ME  on  the  Gridiron  and  Diamond  ;  including  the

enlarged  by  Mr.  Faison.     Price  50c.      Mock  Millan  &  Co. 


Why  is  Tom  Green  like  Horace  Greeley  ? 

Because  he  has  the  same  motto — "  Young  man,  go  West  !  "

A  Mean  Man  :  That  was  probably  the  meanest  man  in  the  University, 
who  left  the  reading  room  door  open  on  another's  back  in  order  to  take  his 
paper  when  the  latter  got  up  to  shut  it. 


A  Surmise  :     It  may  be  true  that  swelling  pride  is  punctured  here  on

^hc   Cc>Uegc   Dictionary. 


Advertisement — From  Latin  a^,  to,  and  vertere,  to  turn,  /.  e.,  turn 
to  the  pages  of  the  Hellenian  when  you  wish  to  find  the  most  profitable 
medium  through  which  to  make  yourself  known. 

Boot — To  chin,  wool,  pull  on  ;  an  artificial  expression  peculiar  to  polite 
social  intercourse  for  the  more  natural  but  less  elegant  form  "to  pull  his 
leg."  The  choice  of  the  term  boot  was  suggested  by  the  presence  of  that 
article  on  the  member  elongated. 

Broke — The  state  of  most  U.  N.  C.  students  after  attending  a  circus 
at  Durham. 

DiMHANKER — A  word,  the  derivation  and  meaning  of  which  are  un- 
known. It  was  imported  to  Chapel  Hill  by  F.  Asbury  Gudger,  Esq.,  and  is 
used  by  him  alone. 

Fail — To  flunk,  slump  ;  from  (i)  root  fal,  meaning  down,  and  (2)  lo, 
to  call  ;  e.g.,  "  The /f-wing  herd  winds  slowly  o'er  the  lea."  Hence  the 
call  donni  which  the  student  receives.  The  loss  of  final  0  may  have  been 
suggested  by  the  escape  of  a  similar  sound  from  the  lips  of  the  victim. 

Greenness — A  more  or  less  universal  quality.  Seen  to  best  advantage 
in  fresh  Boykin. 

Hit  the  Ceiling — Synonym  of  fall  ;  an  idio(t)matic  expression 
formed  on  the  analogy  of  "  hit  the  pipe,"  from  hit,  to  ask  and  not  receive  ; 
e.  g.,  "  I  hit  him  for  ten  plunks.' '  The  element  ceiling  suggests  the  exalt- 
ation of  spirit  in  the  act  of  seeking  a  high  grade  and  an  implied  descent 
incident  to  the  refusal. 

Jewelry — That  which  J.  Webb,  Jr.,  always  keeps  conspicuously  dis- 
played about  his  person. 

1  195 


Kennith  Dunston — A  celebrated  character,  the  son  of  Professor 
Dunston,  tonsorial  artist.  His  chief  claim  to  renown  lies  in  the  fact  that  he 
sometimes  wears  President  Alderman's  hat  and  vice  versa. 

Luck — That  which  pnts  you  through  on  Collier's  exams. 

POMPOUSNESS — Slightly  more  pompous  than  pomp.  The  special  char- 
acteristic of  Mr.  J.  H.  Andrews. 

PsYCHOLO(;v — A  study  usually  taken  by  Juniors  ;  meant  primarily  to 
"  Please  all  the  foolish  and  puzzle  all  the  wise." 

Take  a  Sxeak — A  colloquialism  peculiar  to  the  South  Building  inhab- 
itants. A  figurative  way  of  asking  one  to  leave  your  room  when  he  has 
been  there  for  the  last  three  hours.

A  rtufFy  bit  of  feathers,  gauze  or  lace

But  an  elegant  means  of  flirtation.

Fools  are  our  theme,  let  satire 

be  our  song. 
Its  notes  by  distance  made 

more  sweet. 
Serene  in  the  lap  of  legends 
old. 
Whom  unmerciful  disaster 
Followed  fast  anci  followed  faster. 
Like  sentinels  aged  and  mighty,  they  keep 
Their  vigil  on  the  green. 

A  scholar  and  a  gentleman. 

An  artistic  design  in  a  golf  suit. 

I  was  not  always  a  man  of  woe. 

As  mild  and  gentle  as  the  cradled  babe. 

A  most  valuable  and  interesting  specimen. 

Thy  powers  are  nearer  death  than  thy  conceit. 

If  he  is  but  young  and  fair, 

He  has  the  gift  to  know  it. 

In  his  brain, 
Which  is  as  dry  as  the  remainder  biscuit 
After  a  voyage,  he  hath  strange  places  cramm'd 
With  observation,  the  which  he  vents 
In  mangled  form. 
Remains  a  difficulty  still, 
To  purchase  fame  by  writing  ill.

Why,  then,  do  you  walk  as  if  you  had  swallowed 
a  ramrod  ? 

Loud-bawling  orators  are  driven  by  their  weak- 
ness to  noise,  as  lame  men  to  take  horse. 

Like  two  single  gentlemen  rolled  into  one. 

Giv^e  me  a  look,  give  me  a  face, 

That  makes  simplicity  a  grace. 

Who  wastes  so  much  time  in  thinking  he  thinks. 

Sent  before  his  time. 

The  gloomy  companion  of  a  disturbed  imagination, 

The  melancholy  madness  of  poetic  inspiration. 

Learn 'd  without  sense  and  venerably  dull. 

Greatness  knows  itself. 

He  excels  in  complexion  the  lily  and  the  rose, 

With  a  very  sweet  mouth  and  an  ' '  out  o'  sight  " 
nose. 

There  is  a  gift  beyond  the  reach  of  art — of 
being  eloquently  silent. 

Nature  and  fortune  joined  to  make  thee  great. 

With  all  appliances  and  means  to  boot. 

I  am  the  very  pink  of  courtesy. 

He  is  not  so  deep  as  a  well,  nor  so  wide  as  a 
church  door,  but  there  is  enough  of  him. 

By  our  own  spirits  are  we  deified. 

If  few  their  wants,  their  pleasures  are  but  few. 

The  Smith  (D.  B.),  a  mighty  man  was  he. 

Would  you  ask  for  his  merits  ?  Alas  !  he  had 
none. 

The  crazed  creation  of  misguided  whims. 

All  of  one  nature,  of  one  substance  bred. 

A  small  boy  grown  large. 

Eternal  sunshine  settles  on  his  head. 

It  is  in  truth  a  cheerful  little  thing. 

A  lengthy  subject.

The  green  grass  grew  all  around. 

Oh,  what  may  man  within  him  hide 

Though  angel  on  the  outward  side. 

I  am  no  counterfeit. 

More  lovely  than  the  monarch  of  the  sky, 

In  wanton  Arethusa's  azur'd  arms. 

Truth  is  stranger  than  fiction. 

If  you  wish  to  be  valued  make  yourself  scarce. 

Don't  put  too  fine  a  point  to  your  wit,  for  fear  it 
should  get  blunted. 

Every  man  is  as  Heaven  made  him  and  some- 
times a  good  deal  worse. 

I  know  everything  except  myself. 

Affectation  of  wisdom  often  prevents  us  from 
becoming  wise. 

A  little  folly  is  desirable  in  him  that  will  not  be 
guilty  of  stupidity. 

I  never  saw  a  greater  monster  or  miracle  in  the 
world  than  myself. 

There  is  great  ability  in  knowing  how  to  conceal 
one's  ability. 

If  he  wait  long  enough  the  world  will  be  his 
own. 

He  who  gives  himself  airs  of  importance  ex- 
hibits the  credentials  of  impotence. 

It  is  with  narrow-souled  people  as  with  narrow- 
necked  bottles — the  less  they  have  in  them 
the  more  noise  they  make  in  pouring  it  out. 

Trust  not  too  much  to  an  enchanting  face. 

A  little  mind  that  loves  itself. 

The  extreme  pleasure  we  take  in  talking  of 
ourselves  should  make  us  fear  that  we  give 
very  little  to  those  who  listen  to  us. 

There  is  a  pleasure  in  being  mad  which  none 
but  mad  men  know.

Trust  not  him  that  seems  a  saint.

Moon-calf,  speak  once  in  thy  life,  if  thou  beest 

a  good  moon-calf. 
Marriage  is  a  good  thing  for  man  in  general. 
"  I  need  a  salting." 
Long  and  lean,  lank  and  thin, 
As  one  of  Satan's  Cherubim. 
Nature  has  formed  strange  fellows  in  her  time. 
A  school-boy  freak,  unworthy  of  praise  or  blame. 
But,  O  ye  Gods  !  to  hear  him  sing  ! 
Blessed  is  the  man,  who,  having  nothing  to  say, 

abstains  from  giving  us  wordy  evidence  of 

the  fact. 
Fine  by  defect  and  delicately  weak. 
He  belongs  in  the  dull  catalogue  of  common 

things. 
Hear  ye  not  in  me  the  hum  of  mighty  workings  ? 
Clever  men  are  good,  but  they  are  not  the  best. 
I  saw  and  loved. 
Nose,  nose,  nose,  nose  ! 
And  who  gave  thee  that  jolly  red  nose? 
Ah,  why  should  life  all  labor  be  ? 
Faultily  faultless,  icily  regular,  splendidly  swell. 
He  is  so  good  he  will  pour  rose-water  on  a  toad. 
My  own  hope  is,  a  sun  will  pierce  the  thickest 

cloud  earth  ever  stretched.

Beautiful  as  sweet,  and  young  as  beautiful,  and 
soft  as  young-,  and  gay  as  soft,  and  innocent 
as  gay  ! 

Time  elaborately  thrown  away. 

Elegant  as  simplicity  and  warm  as  ecstasy 

Who  pants  for  glory  finds  but  short  repose. 

His  wit  invites  you  by  his  looks  to  come. 

But  when  you  knock  it  never  is  at  home. 

Unblemished  let  me  live,,  or  die  unknown, 

Oh,  grant  me  honest  fame,  or  grant  me  none. 

In  indolent  vacuity  of  thought. 

A  little  of  a  muchness. 

Oh,  that  those  lips  had  language. 

These  are  thy  charms,  sweet  village, 

Sports  like  these. 

A  jay,  'tis  a  jay  indeed. 

The  man  who  hails  you  Tom  and  Jack, 

And  proves  by  thumping  on  the  back. 

How  he  esteems  your  merit. 

Some /a//s  are  means  the  happier  to  rise. 

"Just  whisper  if  you  get  a  chance.' ' 

A  weariness  to  the  flesh. 

He  does  well  in  everything  except  his  books. 

It  is  hard  for  an  empty  bag  to  stand  upright. 

In  stature  he  is  passing  tall. 

And  sparely  formed  and  lean. 

One  ear  it  heard,  at  the  other  out  it  went. 

"  I's  wicked,  I  is.  I's  mighty  wicked,  anyhow. 
I  can't  help  it." 

Stiff  in  his  opinion,  always  in  the  wrong. 

A  creature  not  too  bright  and  good 

For  human  nature's  daily  food. 

Best  collection  of  college  grinds. 

The  unkindest  cut  of  all. 

A  short  man  and  a  long  dinner.

A  worthless  piece  of  organic  matter. 

Wanted — A  governess. 

"  Tobacco,  hie  !  if  a  man  be  well   'twill  make 

him  sick." 
"A  pet  child  has  many  names." 
Of  two  evils  choose  the  least. 
"You  are  like  fig-tree  fuel — much  smoke  and 

little  fire." 
From  children  expect  childish  acts. 
As  thy  days  are,  so  shall  thy  strength  be. 
"Throw  physic(s)  to  the  dogs." 
To  please  the  fools  and  puzzle  all  the  wise. 
Little,  but  oh  my  ! 
Must  be  seen  to  be  appreciated. 
Angels  of  darkness. 
All  kinds  and  conditions  of  mei^ 
Oh,  for  the  touch  of  a  vanished  hand  ! 
Higher  and  still  higher  from   the   ground  thou 

springest. 
Are  certain  to  make  their  mark  in  the  world. 
"  Be  not  afraid  ;  it  is  I." 
Little  he'll  reck  if  they  let  him  sleep  on. 
His  rugged  face  betrays  no  spirit  of  repose 
Some  say  he  has  no  heart,  but  I  deny  it  ; 
He  has  a  heart,  and  learns  his  lessons  by  it. 
Exceeding  wise  (?),  fair-spoken  and  persuasive. 
I'm  on  very  good  terms  with  myself. 
"  Oh,  isn't  he  a  darling — the  bould  sojer  boy  !  " 
Both  his  legs  are  longer  than  they  really  ought 

to  be. 

How  green  you  are,  and  fresh  in  this  old  world. 

"  What's  he  good  for  ?  " 

Vanity  of  vanities. 

The  very  type  of  innocence. 

Last  but  not  least.

Che  Song  of  the  H.  B.— Continued. 


II. 

I'll  tell  them  how— a  Freshman  green— I  came  to  college  here 

('Twas  early  in  the  harvest  time,  and  '89  the  year), 

And  how  I  looked  with  pleasure  to  the  coming  month  of  June, 

As  I  walked  across  the  campus  to  the  whistling  of  a  tune.   {AH  ivhistle.) 

III. 

I'll  tell  them  how  the  Sophomores  would  ring  the  college  bell, 
And  how  they  took  the  clapper  out  and  hid  it  in  the  well ; 
And  how  they  blacked  the  Freshmen,  and  greased  the  chapel  seats, 
And  cows  put  in  the  belfry  tower  with  acrobatic  feats  ! 

IV. 

I'll  tell  them  of  my  boarding-house,  and  how  the  tough  beefsteak 
Was  tanned  and  sold  again  as  hide,  the  finest  boots  to  make. 
I'll  tell  them  how  the  bill  of  fare  was  varied  every  day. 
So  that  we  read  it  forward  once,  and  then  the  reverse  way  ! 


V. 

I'll  tell  them  how,  as  Junior,  I  broke  so  many  hearts 
That  Cupid,  doubtless,  had  to  buy  a  new  supply  of  darts. 
A  Senior,  too,  I  strolled  around  with  dignity  and  pride, 
And  for  my  verdant  Freshman  days  I  wished  again  and  sighed. 

VI. 

But  I'm  going  to  be  an  M.D.,  or  else  and  LL.B., 

I'm  thinking  of  an  A.  j\I.,  perhaps  a  Ph.D., 

And  I'm  thankful,  as  I  stand  here  to-day,  a  full  A.B., 

That  the  Faculty  have  not  conferred  the  proud  degree,  "  N.G.'

0"ly  a  Bow  of  Ribbon. 

Swiftly  the  twilight  deepens, 

Long  since  the  sun  has  set  ; 
Seated  alone,  in  sadness, 

He  thinks  of  the  past  with  regret. 
And  holds  in  his  hand  a  token, 

A  bow  of  white  and  blue. 
The  emblem  of  so  many  joys, — 

The  colors  of  N.  C.  U. 

CHORUS. 

Only  a  bow  of  ribbon, 

Of  ribbon  white  and  blue, 
Faded,  soiled  and  crumpled, 

A  token  so  true. 
Only  a  bow  of  ribbon. 

Of  ribbon  white  and  blue, 
The  emblem  of  departed  days, 

The  colors  of  N.  C.  U. 

Now  in  the  dusky  twilight 

Appear  the  by-gone  scenes, 
He  is  again  at  college, 

Unconscious  of  all  but  his  dreams  ; 
While  seeing  again  his  classmates, 

His  friends  so  tried  and  true. 
He  shares  with  them  the  many  joys 

At  dear  old  N.  C.  \J.  —  C/wnis. 

Leaving  the  noble  campus, 

On  the  athletic  field 
He  sees  the  '\'arsity  playing. 

And  never  yet  known  to  yield  ; 
The  boys  are  madly  shouting, 

Upholding  White  and  Blue, 
And  he  now  wears  that  faded  bow 

At  dear  old  N.  C.  U.—Owrns. 

Although  he's  old  and  feeble, 

His  end  is  drawing  near, 
\\'aking,  he  still  remembers 

The  college  to  him  so  dear  ; 
Still  loving  the  grand  old  'X'arsity, 

To  whom  all  praise  is  due. 
He  always  keeps  that  faded  bow. 

The  colors  of  N.  C.  \].  — Chorus.

H    Song  for   Carolina, 


All  hail,  Carolina, 
There  ne'er  was  a  finer, 

More  noble  college  history  than  thine  ; 
We'll  sing  to  thy  glory. 
So  far-famed  in  story, 

And  garlands  of  sweet  music  for  thee  twine. 


Shout,  sing,  let  it  ring. 

Shout  Carolina  o'er  and  o'er  ; 
The  welkin  above  her,  with  saint,  sage  and  lover^ 

Shall  sound  the  swelling  chorus  evermore. 

In  contests  with  error 
Thy  sons  feel  no  terror. 

But  faithful  battle  ever  for  the  right  ; 
For  truth  is  their  token 
And  courage  unbroken. 

They  stand  among  the  foremost  in  the  fight. 

With  Yale  or  with  Princeton, 
At  home  or  at  Winston, 

Thy  sturdy  athletes  play  a  winning  game  ; 
On  gridiron,  diamond — 
(A  bad  word — can't  rhyme  on't") — 

The  White  and  Blue  will  triumph  e'er  the  same.. 

The  Glee  Club  before  you 
Will  try  not  to  bore  you, 

But  keep  the  music  up  to  concert  pitch  ; 
With  songs  gay,  pathetic. 
Amusing,  athletic, 

They  leave  you  the  decision  which  is  which.

IN  MEMORIAM. 


EDWIN  WRAY  MARTIN  was  born  in  Arkansas  on  November  20,  1868, 
and  died  at  Pine  Blufif,  Arkansas,  on  December  29,  1896.  He  was  a 
student  at  the  University  of  North  Carolina,  in  the  Law  department, 
in  the  years  1889-90  and  1S90-91,  and  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Laws  was 
conferred  upon  him  in  June,  1891. 

He  was  the  founder  and  first  Editor-in-chief  of  the  Hellenian.  He 
was  one  of  the  founders  of  the  Order  of  Gimghouls.  He  was  a  loyal  and 
devoted  member  of  the  Alpha  Tau  Omega  Fraternity. 

Wray  Martin  was  a  leader.  He  was  honest,  unselfish,  ardent.  When 
his  face  was  set  toward  the  goal,  his  energies  knew  no  respite  till  his  purpose 
was  crowned  with  success. 

He  was  an  affectionate  friend.  He  loved  honor,  and  wore  upon  his  breast 
the  white  flower  of  purity  and  truth.  Never  was  there  more  loyal  friend. 
To  him  friendshij)  meant  forbearance  and  trust  and  defence  of  good  name 
and  love. 

A  mortal  malady  for  months  held  him  in  its  tightening  clutch.  Bravely, 
uncomplainingly  he  awaited  the  approach  of  the  dread  messenger.  His  last 
thoughts  and  words  were  of  his  friends  at  the  LIniversity  of  North  Carolina. 
His  dying  act  was,  with  weakened  hands,  to  take  from  his  breast  the  Maltese 
Cross  of  gold,  the  emblem  of  his  fraternity,  and  with  gentle  voice  direct 
that  it  be  sent  to  one  of  his  friends  in  the  Old  North  State. 

He  is  gone.  Let  us  believe  that  as  he  went  his  eyes  fell  upon  fields 
unutterably  bright,  and  his  ears  heard  music  such  as  never  mortal  ears  have 
heard.     Our  comrade  is  dead.     God  rest  him  !

Zoolog}'  teaches  that  the  hairs  of  the 
head  are  hollow,  and  contain  an  oil  that 
gives  them  life.  In  clipping  the  hair 
with  scissors,  this  hollow  is  left  open,  and 
the  hair  loses  its  life-giving  properties. 

I  have  a  machine  named  the  Singeing 
machine,  which  removes  the  hair  and  at 
the  same  time  closes  up  the  hollow, 
causing  the  hair  to  retain  its  life-giving 
properties,  and  therefore  stopping  the 
hair  from  falling  out  or  dying,  and  giving 
it  a  soft  growth. 

Call  and  examine  this  machine  and 
have  your  hair  singed.
