Purdue's Past Year.
HE vear 1891-92 will long be remembered as one of great triumphs and
achievements,"as well as one of great growth in the University. In the
line of equipment there have been added the Otto gas engine, Westing-
house engine, and not least of them all, " Old Schenectady." Our loco-
motive stands all alone in the annals of railroad lore. There are none like unto
" Old Schenectady." The other departments, as well as the engineering, have
had a few additions of apparatus. As soon as there are no more engines to buy,
the courses in science and in art will be strengthened.
Athletics have been on a veritable boom. On Thanksgiving Day the last
straw was knocked out from under the support of the old Indiana champions'
football pennant, and that same rag now proudly waves in the breeze of a Purdue
atmosphere. The unparalleled success of the eleven gave a new impetus to
sports in general. The Board of Trustees liberalU- donated a handsome sum of
cash and seven acres of land for the new Athletic Park, and through the tireless
efforts of the Athletic Association officers we are now beholding the beginning of
what gives promise of being the finest athletic grounds in Indiana. The grounds
measure 700 x 450 feet, and are large enough to enclose the foot ball oval, base
ball diamond, pit and third-mile track. Two large amphitheatres and bleachers
will be erected in the near future.
The base ball team is now in active work, and we expect much from it. The
new system of management has brought about a healthy rivalry among tbe stu-
dents in procuring positions on the nine, and we may feel satisfied that we are
being represented by the best talent in the University.
In the matter of college politics we have held our own, as all of the other
State institutions will readily acknowledge.
Socially, the year has not been especially active, but at times the atmos-
phere has beeu fairly teemiug with hospitality. Annual week was especially en-
joyable on account of the social features of the receptions.
There have been a few changes in the faculty. Prof. J. J. Flather has suc-
ceeded Lieut. Creighton as Professor of Mechanical Engineering. Lieut. D. D.
Johnson, First Lieutenant Fifth Artillery, U. S. A., now dispenses military tactics
to the students, Lieut. Pickering having gone West to fight Indians. Miss Caro-
lyn Gerrish has succeeded Miss Anna Crockette as instructor in Elocution. Mr.
Frank A. Waterman is assistant to Prof. Carmen.
The total enrolment up to April 20 was 63S.

Professor Moses C. Stevens.
' My age is as a lusty winter, frosty, but kindly."
Every morning, while the day is yet young, a quiet, gray-clad man
crosses the campus, and, long before the first recitation hour, is comfortably
settled in room No. 24 of University Hall. This program has been carried
out for nearly ten years with almost as much regularity as any other event
which is controlled by the rigid laws of mathematics. Every student of
Purdue during this time will hail the familiar featuies of this man in the
likeness opposite. Surely, no member of the faculty is known to so large
a number of alumni as Professor Stevens, and while the study of math-
ematics is not commonly supposed to encourage the growth of sentiment,
here is an example to the contrary — a long-time teacher of mathematics,
firmly established in the affectionate regard of his pupils. For many years —
thirty in round numbers — he has been raising youthful intellects to powers
of various degrees, and in the meantime he has not omitted the cultivation
of the reverse process of ascertaining the ultimate root of students.
A man of strong individuality, but quiet and unaggressive in manner;
a firm believer in mathematical ability as a prime essential to all success;
with a stern intolerance of laziness and frivolity — Professor Stevens is one of
the staunch old types of instructors who are disappearing before a more
aggressive class of younger men of whom a like success and esteem can not
yet be predicted with certainty.
This page can not catalogue his virtues, and will not criticise his faults.
One must know him from daily and many-sided contact; should witness
his indignant condemnation of some unworthy thing; hear his kindly plead-
ing for some student in trouble; listen to his reverential reading of the chapel
service, and in many a like way get glimpses of his character, in order to
know the simple worth of the man.
We believe every student and alumnus will unite with us in our desire
to do honor to a respected instructor.
Professor Moses C. Stevens was born in Windham, Me., near Port-
land; was educated in the Friends' School, Providence, R. I., and taught in
the same school two years. He came West and taught in Richmond and
LaFayette, of this State, and finally became Professor of Mathematics in
Haverford College, in 1858. He was ten years Principal and Superintend-
ent of the High School in Salem, Ohio, and came to Purdue University as
Professor of Mathematics in 1883. He is a member of various associations
of teachers and mathematicians, and a trustee of Earlham College.
flechanics.
F there is anything which distinguishes Purdue particularly it is the
number and diversity of her engines. They number in all fourteen,
and not least among them is " Old Schenectady'." Entering the new
Engineering Laboratory one is bewildered at the preponderance of
engines. When " Old Schenectady " was fired up for the first time,
a general holiday was given, while the students thronged around to
observe the President "pull 'er wide open," and to watch Prof. Goss
" fire 'er." When we first received the new locomotive, the students
wondered where the track would be built. Some surmised that there
would be a campus-encircling railway; others thought that a "limited"
would be put on to convey the students from the various departments
to chapel every morning at 10:15. But all guesses proved to be wrong. The track
is 11011 est; the engine stationary.
The mechanic verily leads a mathematical existence. He arises early, mur-
plan
muring = HP. In lacing his left shoe he utters such terms as " horse-
33,000
power," " dvnamometer, " "friction ; " by the time he has inserted his last collar
button he has advanced to the occult formula El . At breakfast he cuts his
dx=
brown bread into perfect squares, 900 angles, and he growls if the biscuits are not
exactly circular, and if the tops are not perfect sections of ellipses.
La= b J
He heaps his oatmeal in the shape of a truncated prism. The perfect mathematical
curve which his coffee describes as he pours it from his cup into his saucer gives
him great joy. (He pours the coffee purely for the beauty of the curve, not be-
cause of anj' Purdue rules of table etiquette).
On his waj' back he strikes an hypothenuse at street crossings. Should he
happen to meet a young la ly acquaintance, he is always sure to make his chapeau
describe a logarithmic spiral.
He recites Calculus, Analytic Mechanics, Thermo-Dynamics, Transmission
of Power, Strength of Materials, and two or three other branches in the morning.
In the afternoon he tests boilers and engines, stokes the locomotive, and gazes at
the registering dynamometer. At night he studies, mastering such formulas as
y? tan- in + x; cos2 n((mi- q — tan= p) -f 2 cc sin c — cv = O [74]
During annual week one can always single out the mechanical performers.
They are so prone to using mathematical terms that such creep even into their
orations. It is not uncommon to hear them orate about " the wheels of time
ascending the incline of fame against a heavy friction" (giving formulae), or "the
iron horse snorts across the country, consuming half a ton of coal per mile." In
congratulating such a performer, the most pleasant thing one can say is "your
production had the most efficiency."
The mechanic tests cigars on the testing machine, attaches a dynamometer
to a love sigh, and estimates the tension of " taffy." On account of the gigantic
possibilities of measurements and estimates, the life of a mechanic is a singularly
happy one. Ere he tumbles into bed he kneels down and offers a prayer, thank-
ful that the day's loss of energy in overcoming the friction of the afferent and
efferent nerves, in conveying impulses to and from the fore-brain and medulla
oblongata, has resulted in added strength to his laboring capabilities for the
future.
Electricity.
faejwai HIS course is but a few years old. Since the erection of the new
Electrical building, electricity has acquired new volticity. What
the laboratory doesn't possess in the way of volt-meters and galvano-
meters, et cetera, isn't worth having.
The electrical student has many advantages over the others.
His forte is one in which the future can only be guessed at, not
known. What cannot be done, or will be done by this ohmic ce-
lebrity in the future ? Aerial investigation, rain making, the art of
making war in the air, flying, all are within the posibilities of this
currentic unknown.
It is no uncommon occurrence to see an electric student carry-
ing 10,000 volts through his body, or to observe him letting a
shock pass off. He begins his studies by rubbing a piece of rubber over a cat's
back (against the grain.) If the caoutchouc is good, and the cat remains passive,
he gets a good start. Then he learns to use sulphur and cat's fur, then the fric-
tion method, until he finally reaches the dynamo stage.
In his Sophomore year he delights in demonstrating the lines of magnetic
force around the end of a magnetized piece of metal. His penknife he magnet-
izes early in his career.
Another advantage which he has is in the special dispensation for using
large words. His vocabulary is lengthy, yet circumscribed. It is not uncom-
mon to hear him prate of electrodynamometers and mikrogalvanometers in the
same breath. Ohms and amperes and volts alternate with Ruhmkorff coils and
tangent galvanometers, in his speech. He can expatiate well upon the influ-
ence of sun-pots on the deflection of the magnetic needle.
The course offers special advantages for the study of personal magnetism
and the attraction of beaut}'.
Science.
L'\
HE course in science is the easiest one in our curriculum. It is de-
signed to edu'cate the ordinary man's son in the ordinary affairs of
life and of nature. The course is broad and liberal, shading off in-
sensibly on one side into the coarser conglomerate engineering
courses and on the other side into the finer-grained and stratified
agricultural course. The graduates of this department are readily
y=fi^-??S=- distinguished by a broader liberality and by a wider culture, and
generally by a suave and debonair demeanor.
When the scientific student gets to be a junior, he has mastered
the protoplasmic vocabulary and can discourse glibly upon such sub-
jects as " fission" and "nucleoli." He is then given full liberty to
do as he pleases in the afterrccn laloialciy exercises unless he happens to
elect chemistry. He makes sections of all the internal vital organs of such noc-
turnal animals as cams doviesiicus and felis nocitirnus. The first dissection is
liable to cause a violent exudation of pepsin, but one eruption will generally cure
him. He soon learns and delights to dissect gallus before a crowd of gall-eyed
preps, and much gum during the operation. He may elect chemistry, but if he
does so during his junior year, he learns the trade in thirty-eight weeks.
If he studies evolution he occasionally out-Daiwins Mr. Darwin. But the
professor is always en hand to curb his flight}' ideas, and a little circumscribing
generally works beneficial results.
Psychology ccrr.es in the course, but the graduates generally make guarded
statements in discoursing on this topic. A few learn that below seventy is no
illusion, but reality. Memory, hewever, pioves the illusive in many cases. The
Inductive and reductive methods of reasoning are fully mastered. The question
cards which are passed arcurd give excellent chances for preparing a well-worded
answer.
Political economy is the study in which all seniois delight. It affords an
admirable opportunity for the expression of private opinions, and what senior
has not formed at least one idea?

The definitions of wealth, value, capital, labor, etc., are quickly mastered.
Then the senior writes his essay, or rather " thesis," on some economic subject.
The library is well supplied with the useful originals, and if the student has
done his copying well, he is allowed to read the production before the assembled
class.
For his graduating thesis the senior generally chooses some well-worked
subject upon which there is plenty of reference, but in some cases good work
is done. An exceedingly small percentage of the thesis is published to the
world in the Royal Microscopical Journal.
The science course graduates more students than any other department. Of
the present senior class of forty-four, twenty-two are scientific students.
Civil Engineering.
HIS is the most comprehensive department in the University. The
C. E. one day measures a ditch excavation, and the next turns his
machine on the heavens. With equal facility he can explain trans-
itional periods, or the drawing power of engines. Some especially
acute ones have been able to locate the North star after but three
observations. Advanced students design bridge spans and electric
belts.
The "civil " delights in Political Ecomony, enjoying the freedom
the restraint of "legal authority and personal sentiment," and is
generally proficient in botany, which he learns while surveying routes
for the Freshmen co-ed. botanizers. Some are experts in the carrying capacity
of jugs, having been employed to carry water for the foot-ball games. They often
own individual jugs, to which the public is not admitted.
Altogether he is very versatile. While plotting the details of a bridge, 650
feet span, 96 panels, Coopers' Specifications, Class H, he has never been known to
draw more than three lines in succession without stopping to whistle "Annie
Rooney," look blankly out of the window for future events, or match pennies
and lose.
His ideas are rambling, and generally contain the element of distance, which
often carries them beyond the range of ordinary people who are excluded from
the enjoyment of those entrancing reflections on " The Immortality of the Soul,"
" Is the Moon Inhabited ? " " The Relative Size of Prof. P and the Sun," etc.
Civil engineering is here truly reduced to an "applied science." The "pro-
fessor in charge " is pitcher for the faculty team, and easily delivers a curve of
the same genus as the parabolic spiral. When sliding to second he describes a
tangent to a helicoid, which unfortunately is intersected at the base line by a
diagonal perpendicular to the baseman, necessitating the verdict, "That will do;
you may be seated," from the Soph, umpire. Teeters, the assistant, in attempt-
ing the same act, produces the tangent out of the field of vision, and "flunks"
on second. Ira Jaques, the other assistant, is carried with the machines as a mat-
ter of convenience, as he can easily walk under the tripod to adjust the plumb-
bob from beneath. He plays shortstop on the team, and executes some beautiful
triple plays peculiar to himself.

FTER dinner, one day, a big robin alighted on the top of a pine
tree near the Art Hall.
If he had looked in the window he would have seen bus)' work-
ers, some drawing, some carving, and others painting china.
We call it an "Industrial Art Department," because an effort
is made to do the work according to the art principles.
Had the robin listened, he might have heard sounds of mallets
and chisels, and an answer in response to the student's questioning,
"What shall I do with this wood? "
"Make what you will, you must see the finished whole before you begin; the
construction must be strong, light and consistent; the ornamentation adapted and
suitable to the piece. Make your cuts true, clean and regular. The precision of
the drawing must be repeated in the cutting. Select a tool to fit each curve, and
make every cut with the idea of the finished whole in mind. If the curve of a
scroll be wavering or broken, the symmetry is spoiled; if the arrangement or
treatment of a natural selection is stiff, it is dead rather than alive."
The robin would have wondered, had he realized that brushing the chips off
a little panel on the corner of the bench would reveal a bunch of clover, living
and natural in wood.
But the bird flew away without a glimpse of the dainty bits of china, which
are done in the painting room.
Students happy over the lovely colors and beautiful tints so easily applied
to china, paint without fatigue, with expectant hope of what will come from the
fire. For into a kiln it must go to be burned and heightened in color and effect.
It is not play but joyful work, which only the initiated and the connoisseur
understand, worthy of the serious thought and study required to select the
beautiful.

Agriculture.

4tfiMili©HE original design for Purdue was on an agricultural model. But
r, she has long since outgrown her original designers' circumscribed
Si
limits, and is now en ville. Occasionally one hears something
about the " Indiana Agricultural College," but this generally occurs
biennially and during the months of Jauuary. February and March.
If a farmer's son comes to Purdue he is entitled to matriculate
in the Agricultural course. If he has had some previous practical
training, so much the better for him. If he has never dallied behind
a soil-disturbing plow, he need not expect to learn a snbstitute for
" hoofing it." In the Agricultural course only the latest improved
machinery is used, and all the active work is done by hired men
There is danger of a farmer's son learning too much about improved
machinery; and so, when he returns to his farm in Posey County
the old time methods ma}' interest him no longer. He ma}', however, drive one
of the degenerated college pegasi on Saturday mornings, and learn to guide it
with the reins encircling his neck.
Purdue has a farm, a large one, which is cultivated yearly. The returns from
this farm are common property, and from time to time the station issues bulletins
on the result.
By diligent and assiduous labor a farmer's son may learn to plant potatoes on
the oval plan ; but he often learns to prefer the diamond shape. The student
learns all about wheat rust, potato rot and fertilizers. He learns something about
the composition of soils, and about the haunts of the glow-worm and ground hog.
The experiment station affords him excellent opportunities for getting weather
fore-casting ideas, and he learns to let his own observations supersede those of
the infallible almanac.

Recent discoveries by Jerry Rusk and his confreres have made fearful inroads
into the science of the soil. Rain-making is the newest of the arts, and in framing
the rural science the framers made no emergency clause for the rain-makers. It
is to be hoped that no other man will intrude his new-fangled ideas on this staid
old Cincinnatian science.
There is a six weeks' course in Veterinary science in this department. All
broken-down, spavined, wind-broken equines of the neighboring towns are bought
in at reduced rates and vivisected. The students enjoy this work immensely.
Among the graduates, five are known to have become practical husbandmen,
and quite a number have turned husbands. These graduates all use the "rotation
of crops" scheme, and in that my become very prosperous. Their neighbors
always consult them on questions of agricultural chemistry and pedigree of stock
(see '91 Debris).
Purdue also has a dairy. The cows are nicely situated now. Professor Earnest
Knaufft designed the Dairv Building.

The Station.
The United States Experiment Station at Purdue has attained wide prominence
on account of the discover}- or development there of wheat rust, potato rot and
two or three other pests that worry the farmer. The " Bulletins " sent out by the
Station are eagerly expected by a large and increasing mass of farmers.
But to the average student, to all who are not enrolled among the agricul-
turalists, the Station is a sort of enigma. All they know of it is that now and then
some poor, bespavined equine ' ' wends his way ' ' southward through the Station
field and is seen no more ; and the}' further see a score of fine milch cows, whose
pedigree is so admirably elucidated in the '91 Debris chewing their cuds in the
western field, near the dairy building. But what is done inside the Station is a
locked mystery to them.
They do many fine things at the Station, however. They plant grains of corn,
whose exact weight in milligrams is known, whose size, shape, contour and color
are all well recorded. When harvest comes, all the grains which grew and de-
veloped from the one original grain whose weight, size, shape, contour and color
was known, are taken and the same information tabulated about them. In a few
weeks the farmers of the United States ascertain that it is best to plant the grains
of corn from near the bottom of the cob, and that the heavier the original grain,
the greater will be the harvest.
Such practical pleasantries are indulged in at the Station. The halls and
rooms are teeming with souvenirs of past seasons in the way of large stocks of
corn and shocks of wheat.
The Station building is not a very beautiful or pleasing one to the eye, yet the
inside arrangement is very elegant. There is a little cupola on the Station roof,
but its use is not verv well defined.
The Army.
T the call to arms, in September last, the armory was crowded with
old and new cadets. The new cadets, being uninitiated, kept close
to the wall, for they were afraid — of what ? When a cadet, wear-
ing black and gold stripes, loud enough to knock down a giant
oak, stepped forth, opened that cavity just below his ponderous
nose, and roared the command, " Fall in ! " in such deep and un-
harmonious tones as to remind the terror-stricken throng of the
mutterings of Jove, they immediately fell, and some of them are
still wondering if they were not struck with a volley of grape-shot.
Most of them, however, have recovered, and now the}- can't even
be affected by the vociferations of the captains in command.
The batallion is in good condition. It is not afraid to challenge
the old famous " National Guard." Why should it be afraid? The
" Guards " have long since ceased to bivouac on the barren plains of
Russia. It is composed of four companies of infantry, three detach-
ments of artillery, signal corps and a drum corps. In former 3'ears,
the last named organization has been the laughing stock of the University. But
this year it lost this pennant, being beaten by the chapel choir.
It has been customary, for the last three years, to spend a week in camp, thus
giving the young Napoleons a taste of army life. Last year's adventure proved
rather disastrous than otherwise. The Commandant, Lieut. Pickering, thought
to give a religious tour to the camp. This was done by keeping the boys on
rations over Sunday, and by having them sit in the boiling sun while one of La
Fayette's divines made known unto them the ways of a "Soldier," leaving as the
basis of his remarks, the Bible. But however good the intentions of the com-
mandant were, they were entirely frustrated; or, least, the good effects were last
on the following day and night. Forepaugh's show proved to be too great an at-
traction for the boys. Not only did the privates commit a breach of discipline, but
even the captains led in attack, sweeping the bridge of its defenders. This fight
proved to be the " Waterloo " of some dozen of the leaders of the offensive party,
and not the " Lodi " of Napoleon ; for no sooner had they reached Purdue again
than they found themselves relieved of their stripes and honors.
Our new Commandent, Lieut. Johnson, does not care to attempt such an ar-
duous task as conducting a camp composed of such cadets. He is a man who can
stand all day at the mouth of a cannon without flinching, but when subjected to
the unruly maneuvers of the boys, he prefers to be put on the retired list. Hence
it is safe to say that " Camp Purdue " is the name of the last of its kind, for a few
years at least. The boys can no longer look forward to camping time. They may
console themselves by thinking of inspection time, and of his majesty, the inspect-
ing officer. He is so gentle and kind as to remind a person of that fearless and
homeless animal, always in a cage, the lion.
Evolution.
HEN Mr. Darwin first published his book in the sixties, a howl
long and loud arose all over the world. But since that time the
world, has been gradually working up to Mr. Darwin's ideas,
like a locomotive climbing a hill.
The Seniors at Purdue exult in their knowledge of Darwin-
ism, but none are inclined to go too far and outdo Herr Haeckel.
In perusing the "Descent of Man " many striking and familiar
countenances greet the Senior from the pages, and by his "inti-
mations of immortality " and recollections of a previous exist-
ence, he is constrained to accept the evolutionary doctrine. By
his studies of the expressions of emotions, he comes to be more
familiar with his brother animals moods, and considers their
chagrin when compelled to do certain offensive labors. It is too
much for his constitution to behold an aged mule being driven
to a garbage vehicle by an emancipated darkey, sweating under the goading of
the driver's " pursuader.'' He asks himself sympathetically, "I wonder what
relation that asinus dejectus is to me ?"
Evolutionary studies are of the greatest conceivable benefit to the student.
He learns to let his imagination take the wildest flights and hover over far-off, un-
worked pastures ; but the studies are not specially conducive to poetical tenden-
cies. Mr. Wordsworth's oft-quoted primrose becomes only one flower among a
million others, with no particular poetic significance. And as it has presented no
marked changes in structure since Mr. W.'s time, the student dismis3es the quo-
tation with a shake of the head and a bearded murmer about "survival of the
fittest."
The saddest part of it all is that evolution reveals the future man. As sure as
fate that much abused gentleman will be entirely deficient in hirsute appendages ;
and his molars and canines will be in the same state as the toes of the present
horse — "rudimentary."
What the Senior cannot explain with his " natural selection," " instability of
species " and "sexual selection " does not come in the course.
Mrs. Emma Montgomery McRae.
Mrs. Emma Montgomery MeRae was born at Loveland, Ohio, in 1S4S. Five
years later she came with her parents to central Indiana.
Her early education was accomplished by private teachers, among whom her
father had a prominent place. Later she attended public and private schools,
finally taking a course in Brookville College.
Mrs. McRae began her work as a teacher in the public schools of Vevay,
Indiana. She left Vevay to accept the principalship of the Muncie High School,
where she remained for sixteen years. Four years were spent in charge of the
High School of Marion, from which place she was called to the Professorship of
English Literature in Purdue University.
In addition to work done within her own class-room, Mrs. McRae's work
among the teachers of Indiana deserves special mention in any sketch that would
fairly represent her. No educator of the State deserves the gratitude of his fellow
laborers more than she deserves it. She received an expression of this, when —
the only woman so honored in Indiana — she was chosen President of the State
Teachers' Association.
We hesitate in attempting to estimate Mrs. McRae's place in our own institu-
tion. We are more than ready to acknowledge her power as an instructor. High
minded and broad in her views of life and its purposes, she has been able through
her work to exert an influence for all that is pure and ennobling.
But above and beyond this there is her personality, which comes so vividly
before us. Those who know her will appreciate that this cannot be put into words,
that any attempt to do so would be merety suggestive of what her name alone
would bring clearly to mind.
We think of a kindness that never fails, of a sympathy broad enough to in-
clude all who need it, of a life that is ever helpful, and we are conscious that to
Mrs. McRae we accord a place in our hearts which no one else can fill.

History of '02.
HE historv of a class is indeed one of intense interest as it enters
college, passes through the turbulent or peaceful four years of its
existence and graduates. It is expected that it shall leave as a
heritage to succeeding generations a written record of its history.
To those who may ch lose to liken this history to geological record,
we explain that fossils of any importance are monuments of suc-
cessful class work, while defeats are always indicated by lost
periods.
Class histories of our predecessors have been for the most part
fabrications of fearful and wonderful make, and to the mind of the
close observer have proven that the law of evolution is readily
applicable to class histories, in that the last one of the series — that
of '91 — was the largest and most thoroughly representative of its
type. We leave the work of lauding our merits or achievements
and spend our strength in relating cold fact, in reviewing past
enjoyment or in speculating on the future.
Our advent was in iSSS — our leave is taken 1S92. Both occasions fall in years
of high interest to every American citizen. The first being one important in
political matters, the latter memorable as the anniversary of the Discovery of
America. The intervening years have been pregnant with important matters con-
concerning nearly every phase of life. All this has had its bearing upon us and
rendered our connection with Purdue of peculiar interest.
The Class of '92, perhaps more than any other class, has witnessed great
growth and prosperity in the college. The raising of the institution from a weak
to a sound financial basis, strengthening and modification of lines of work, addi-
tion of new schools, vast increase of equipments and capacity — all has been ac-
complished during the period of our presence.
When we consider the importance of the last four years in determining the
future of Purdue, we are thankful that our history falls within this period.
Hitherto the institution was more or less regarded as an experiment, and had not
received the vigorous support which has since and shall continue to give it first
place among technical and scientific schools.
Among student enterprises (which have figured in the growth of the college)
it was our pleasure to witness the advent of the first Debris. Among those
affairs, in the growth or organization of which our members have assisted, are the
Exponent, the military companies, Athletic Association, Society for the Extermina-
tion of Ghosts on the Campus, Water Throwing Agencies, The Dormitory Geograph-
ical and Fruit Society, and divers other lesser organizations which have been of
obscure purpose or local interest.
The receptions and banquets given by the class have been of intense enjoy-
ment to members participating, and as to their general success we gladly refer the
doubting reader to the testimony of invited guests. In short, we remember our
class actions only with a large degree of pleasure, and shall hold them always as
delightful bits of experience.
Sometimes battle and midnight watches have been our lot, but never yet has
enemy surprised our camp because of sleeping guard. All praise to those whose
careful vigilance has ever preserved our banner from disgrace !
In casting about for a suitable remembrance to leave, it was decided that
nothing unstable as rock or uncertain as a clock should mark our history ; neither
should the monument of our energy be of such a character as that of our imme-
diate predecessors ; it must not be "sat upon " by the President repeatedly, pub-
licly and officially. We have looked for an object of beauty which shall perform
a high office. For many years may it grace the platform, standing between
student, and many a severe mandate of faculty, and many witnessing a stirring
"hurrah !" from the heaving bosoms of the victorious students in exultation over
victories on athletic fields.
With the issue of this volume the class of '92 bids its Alma Mater adieu. If
four years close association had not given us a profound respect and strong affec-
tion for Purdue and her customs, college life would have been in vain; yet parting
finds us, thanks to her training, with true courage and high hopes for the future.
While fame and fortune shall be to most unknown, we all feel that we owe
our best efforts to Purdue, and hope to be useful and respected citizens of the great
commonwealth which she represents. Historian.

.St*
N the earlj' morning of the eventful day of the Sophomore Picnic,
the sixteenth of May, 1S91, old Sol arose, in all his glory, to dispel
the darkness that might have been hovering over the heads of any
that were that day to participate in the joyous event before them.
Man}' were the happy students that hurried forth that morning to
reach the train that was to bear them to Lake Maxinkuckee, where
every arrangement has been made to give them a delightful recep-
tion. The ride to the lake can best be described by likening it to]
the ride on the mail coach by Thomas DeQuincy1.
The air was calm and clear, just cool enough to avoid oppress-
iveness, and at the same time insure a proper degree of warmth dur-
ing the day.
After about two and one-half hours ride we caught our first
glimpse of the lake. It lay to our right and below us, stretching
for several miles toward the eastern horizon, and the glistening of the morning
sun upon the light ripples caused by the gentle breeze, presented to us, on the
swift moving train, a sight of rare beauty."
To dwell upon the beauties of the day would certainly be very pleasant.
The rides upon the lake, the strolls about the beautiful walks, the dinner in the
shaded groves, the dancing in the splendidly prepared hall, and the ride home,
are things that must long have a warm place in our memory.111
And now, with a mere notice of a second foot-ball victory, we find ourselves
face to face with the present.
Proud of our past achievements; proud of defeats which we met with, a man-
liness which can be unsurpassed, IV we turn our eyes to the future. From our
position upon the mountain of education, we see the world striving at our feet,
but we heed it not. With our eyes fixed upon the very top, we will continue to
struggle towards it, and when we shall have reached the goal of our ambition, we
can truthfully say, " Vent, vidi, vici." Historian.

History of '94.
HE usual History begins, "We shall all remem-
ber that memorable day — we all hail it as
a proud and gala day in early September
when first assembled within the classic halls of
old Purdue that famous class — we all agree
that that day began an era of prosperity for
our Alma Mater." All this has been told by
the historians of classes gone before, ever since
there has been a class of which to write, and a
book in which to write its history. Therefore,
as history repeats itself, and as I have no good
reasons for departing from this time-honored
custom, I will echo it back again as very ap-
plicable to this class of ninety-four.
Very naturally, the first thing to do, on
being fully convinced that we really were col-
legians, was to perfect an organization, draw
up a constitution, adopt a motto, colors, yell,
and so on down the list of so-called necessities.
This work was begun on November 20, 1889,
and completed in a manner very satisfactory to us, although not to many of the
other classes, as they were destined to see those colors flung in their faces,
and hear that yell shouted in their ears until they wished that there had
never been such a class to enter Purdue, or hope that something, in some
way, would stop the successful and eventful career of "That class of
ninety-four."
During our Prep, year, although Purdue seemed very large, and com-
posed for the greater part, of "us," and although we did many things that
seemed veiy important to us then, and many recollections of " that dear
old room of Dr. Test's" comes back to us, still nothing really happened
then that would be worth using ink and paper to tell of — so much has
been gone over since. But we leave prepdom, and enter as Freshmen the
college proper. We now numbered a hundred and fifty one, and such a
hundred and fifty one as it was! We will freely acknowledge that we
were as green as the average Freshman class, but it did not take us long
to become accustomed to our surroundings and to be perfectly at home
with the few that had been here before us as Preps. As we then stood, we
made the firmest and most united Freshmen class that has ever entered the
university. Not a bit troubled were we with class dissensions, but stood
united in everything we undertook. And, by the way, anything under-
taken by us was successfully accomplished.
In Purdue, ninety-four was the first class to adopt a class pin, and
our successors, the present Freshman class, have shown very good taste in
following in our footsteps.
In athletics we alwa)S have been and shall be noted for our superiority.
In our Freshman year, over two thirds of the events on Field-day were
taken by ninety-four men, and the only events taken by Purdue at Terra
Haute last year were taken by our representatives. Where would ihe base
ball team be if not for ninety-four ? Six men last year and five this, came
from our ranks.
Sophomores! And were we really Sophomores? Most certainly;
there it stood, in black and whiie — "Is entitled to enter the Sophomore
class of Purdue University " To be sure, not all of us. Just one hundred
of those that left in June were here to enter. But the one hundred
seems to work better, if possible, than last year.
It is truly too bad that I have not here, to fill up space, a " Crema-
tion Song," as my predecessor had. It looked very nice, indeed, that page
of dittos," but we as a class, thought too much of old Wentworth to con-
sign him to the flames, and the " time-honored custom " that was to be
inaugurated, is still to be.
It has been said that Sophomores are a combination of conceit and
ignorance. We, certainly are an exception. As to the ignorance, it needs
but a glance into our faces to convince you that we have none of it, and
for the conceit, just look over the preceding, and if it shows any, I am mis-
taken. Why, the half has not been told, nor can it be.

History of '95.
ASK, "Who thinks it worth while to turn and look at the class
of '95 ?" One and all. of course, for are we not noted for
our great wisdom and earnestness of purpose ?
Who ever caught a Freshman up to mischief ? No, he
trudges along with his books well tucked under his arm, and
charged to the brim with his lessons. Find him with a pony
in his hat ? Nay, perish the thought !
As we now stand in our regular college year, we look
back with pride to the time devoted to the class of Preps., and
fairly revel in the thought that we were never green. As stu-
dents of that year, we were the ''flower of the flock," but as
Freshmen, we are the " apple of the President's eye."
As a matter of couise, we were looked down upon until
" Class day," when we were able to show our more ancient and
experienced fellow-students that '95 was decidedly "in it," by
winning newly all the laurels of the day, and carrying away with pride and
glory the flags of our competitors.
But our Prep, year is over, and as Freshmen we are said to be the
brightest class in school; in proof of which fact the present Preps, wish to
copy our Constitution.1 Even the Seniors look up to us, and have been
known to wait for their dessert at the table until all the Freshmen had been
served."
Our reputation for unusual talent has spread far and near, as all, with
the exception of one of the performers in the Philalethean dramatic enter-
tainment, are selected from our class.
We are, without a doubt, the largest class that ever brightened the
halls of " Old Purdue," as our number at present is one hundred and nine-
ty-seven.'"
A great many marvelous things have happened in our midst, but we
are not at liberty to discuss them; consequently they will remain a dead
secret. True, we have done nothing to distinguish ourselves before the
world,lv preferring to reserve our forces for a grand demonstration in our
Sophomore year, to show Purdue what students of this delectable era can
accomplish.
With the finish of our education in the dim distance, we stand to-day
with our work but just begun; and while the future remains in shadow, we
must learn to labor and to wait patiently for its gradual unfolding or devel-
opment, bringing with it in the fullness of time a grand realization of
knowledge gained, and time well spent. Historian.

II. The Freshmen referred to were girls. — [Ed.

Preparatory.
HE Preps are on the decline. There was once a day when the
Preps were large in numbers, and in the ascendency, but that
day is now past. The big, brawny, heavy Preps who used to
strut the campus and win the tug-of-war have vanished never
to return. The faculty has adopted new rules, which are rough
on the youngster, and so this year the Preparatory musters but
eighty-one.
The Prep has had a hard road to travel during the past
year. Owing to dissensions of some kind, he has been unable
to perfect a class organization. The last seen of him was look-
ing for the constitution and by-laws of the Senior Class, from
which to copy a similar document for himself. But he did not
get it, and he is probably still looking.
It is generally asserted that Preps eat Mullen's Food and
kindred articles ; that they use condensed milk and rattles ; but
the Purdue Prep is quite another affair. He does none of these things ; but he is
medium-sized, health}' and robust. He does not wear Knickerbockers. And so,
taken all in all, he is a good sample of a coming Purdue humanity.
And with this promise let him rest.
EFORE we had handed our material to the printer, the following was
handed us by the Pharmacy Poet :
When Pharmacy, from her Purdue height,
Unfurled her banner to the air,
She spread a yard of plaster white
To patch the rent torn in that air
By that ear-splitting college yell,
Which sounded through heaven, earth, and well
Into the depth of space beyond.
She striped her boys with black and gold,
And said "ta ta" to all things old.
She mingled with her curriculum
A thorough course on Tomentosum ;
She strove ahead with hearty will,
And taught how to make the quinine pill.
Her fame's now spread both far and wide ;
In all things "pharmic" she's the guide.
From the forests wild she brought Wahoo,
And to tone her yell took Catechu.
But never again will old Purdue,— (poet dies.)
The Museum of the institution is found in the basement of the main building,
where it enjoys profound obscurity. The Natural History collection of the con-
cern is found to the westward in connection with the Chemical laboratories. As
regards heterogeneity it is without a rival. It is the result of years of advertising
and careful selection by the professor in charge. A necessary requisite for ad-
mission is that the applicant bear some abnormal feature or be a well marked type
of some new variety. All specimens having been exhibited for more than two
consecutive years in a Clark street museum are rejected.
The manner of matriculation differs somewhat from that of the regular
schools. The sp.gr. and "relative basicity" are first determined. These vary
considerably at first, but are more uniform after a few weeks domestication. The
students are then assigned places in the laboratory where they learn to tie pack-
ages, make capsules, mix soda syrups and tune violins. Along further in the
course the}- get some other things of interest only to practical druggists and com-
parative philologists, and may boast of a vocabulary, less intelligible and of wider
range than that of an}' other class of students. After two years of hard work,
attended by much of accomplishment and experience, they are individually
brought before an examining board ; and if found to be able to read labels in two
languages, to be expert in mixing drinks, and careful in charging, they are given
certificates which entitle them to the privilege of dealing out unadulterated drugs
to the ignorant masses and charge, in addition, fifteen cents per oz. for their
knowledge.
This department is regarded with a sort of superstitious awe by the "preps,"
having been told by Dr. Test that it is the "place where bad prep's go." Two
bright boys, who were skeptical as to this, once approached the place and looked
in through an open window. They have ever since had implicit faith in Dr. T.
Chauucey parents who wish to impress unruly boys with the idea of retribution in
another life, occasionally take them through as a last expedient before sending to
the reform school. The atmosphere is convincing.
Some adventurous ladies once visited the place, but were much frightened,
upon passing a mirror, to find their complexions changed. The situatian was
quite embarrassing, but the professor explained that the H2 S generator was run-
ning and that H2 S precipitated lead.
Much more might be said of this region, but we do not care to destroy popular
credulity.
Last year's nest contains no eggs,
And last year's suits are now passe,
And most of last year's graduates
Now lauguisk in the consomme — soup.
—Pharmacy Poet.

Irving Literary Society.
Motto: Qui Non Proficit Deficit.
Colors: Azure and Sea Shell Pink.
Badge: A Gold Ouill, bearing the word, "Irving.'
N conforming to the businesslike methods of the University, the
students do not forget that a literary development is quite
necessary for a thorough preparation for their lifevvork. The
Irving Society has ever kept this fact before its members, and it
is but speaking the truth to say that they have alwa}'S realized
the benefits derived from performing their respective duties in
the society.
A literary society is just what its members make it. If the
members care little for such work, the society is bound to be a
drudge. On the other hand, if they are alive to the work, enter-
ing into it with their whole soul, the society will be a factor of great good to the
institution with which it is connected, as well as to its members. In the latter
class does the Irving Society take its rank. Named after one of the greatest lit-
erary stars of America, Washington Irving, the society can not fail to elicit from
its members the proper reverence for the work in hand. While the Irvings of
Purdue can not hold a light to that famous Irving of the Hudson, yet they are
worthy of their name, and the University is much benefitted bj- the existence of
this society. That the Irving is prosperous; that the literary opportunities
offered within her walls, are improved by her members is evident. The "Annual"
is a means to judge how well these opportunities are improved. Every year the
Irving Society presents her programme, and she does not fail to receive her share
of attention and commendation.

Philalethian Literary Society.
Motto: Per Augusta ad Augusta.
Colors: Cardinal and Light Blue.
HE Philalethian Society counts her years almost as many as those of her
elder brother — the Irving.
The history of her past achievements have been told so often that
it is not necessary to repeat them here.
The past year has been one of universal pleasure and success, and
it is with feelings of sadness the members see the end drawing near.
The Philalethean open meeting ranked as high as any given this year and the
"Annual" was especially meritorious, introducing some new and novel features.
Their membership roll has been very large during the past year, and the mem-
bers believe another young ladies' literary society would be of advantage, both to
the girls of the school and to the University.
The outlook for the future is very bright, and as time passes the society more
nearly realizes the truth of its motto, "Per angusta ad augusta."

Carlyle Society.
Motto: " Studete Eiterae."
Colors: Carmine and Gold.
HEN the history of the Carlyle Society for the past year is
recited, it will be a story of unexcelled growth. The first
roll call was answered by but twelve members. This was
a less number than the society had had for years, and
many were inclined to believe that the palmiest days of
"old Carlyle" had passed away. However, this handful
of faithful men worked as a unit, hard, persistent; and the
result is surprising even to themselves. The society now
numbers thirty.
The Open Meeting occurred on the evening of Decem-
ber nth, '91.
The society presented its yearly mock trial to a large
audience on the evening of February 26th, '92. Judge
Etten, '92, occupied the chair, while Fermier, '94, and Ritchey, '94, attorneys for
plaintiff, endeavored to prove the defendant, Thayer, '94, guilt}- of crap shooting
and gross neglect towards his wife, and Kintner, '94, and Conley, '95, strove with
like eloquence to prove defendant not guilt}-. The jury finally found the defend-
ant not guilty and his suppositious wife is still Mrs. Thayer.
The "Annual" was given on the evening of April 8th, '92, the following
being performers : McBride, '92, President ; Richey, '94 ; Foote, '95 ; Heagy, '93 ;
Fermier, '94 ; Leonard, '95 ; Hayes, '94. Inasmuch as not one of the above had
ever before performed on an Annual, the entertainment was exceptionally clever.

Emersonian Literary Society.
Motto: " Wie die Arbeit, so der Lohn."
Colors: Cream, Shrimp Pink, Nile Green.
ONSIDERING its age, the Emersonian has a vigorous existence, and
though the youngest child, it has not been spoiled by over-indul-
gence, but has kept the even tenor of its way against disadvantage.
Five years of growth have given it stability and prestige far beyond
its years. The "Emersonian Ideal" that actuated the charter
members has lost none of its significance, and with the years has
added new grace. Earnest activity has been beautified by the spirit
of transcendantalism, and the Concord school has a group of enthusi-
astic disciples even in this home of physical technique and applied
science.
Conscientious application to assigned duty has characterized
the membership, and good regular programs have been a feature of
the Society's history.
Its members have ever been prominent among the recipients of college honors
and active in the "inner life" of the University ; and Emersonian night of annual
week has always borne favorable comparison with any of the others.
The last of the charter members has gone, but the mantle has fallen upon
good shoulders ; and with increasing facilities for literary work which Purdue
offers, the society ma}' prophecy for itself in maturity a complete fulfillment of the
promises of its infancy.

This Society now numbers its years by three times three. It long was quite
a comprehensive affair, dealing with every branch of science from bridge-building
to the scientific aspect of Buddhism. A discussion of the Inter-state Commerce
law, the Atomic Theory, and mathematical probabilities all in the same evening was
no uncommon thing.
Since the advent of the Farm Club, Engineering Societies and Poker Club, how-
ever the scope of work has been limited to the Natural sciences. The membership
is not large, owing to the number who seceded to the last named off-shoot, but is
made up of earnest students and professors, who indulge a lively interest in science
and "talk with the Gods" while other men sleep.
The program is worthy of notice. It begins with a resume of the work of the
last meeting, read by the Secretary; this lasts from one to three hours, depending
upon his versatility and lung power. There is an occasional intermission for
refreshments This is followed by a talk from a professor or post graduate upon
the " Derivation of Hypophosphates," Time Measurements for Chemical Reac-
tions," or some kindred subject, which is made very exciting to the "Prof." but
exerts a soothing influence upon the senior, who inspires the speaker by snoring.
This over, the full commences, and everyone exhibits a lively interest. Some
distinguished member gives a lengthy account of his travels on Botanical or Zoo.
logical expeditions, illustrated by maps of the new world, from which he has
gained a knowledge of Geography only attained by genius with a prominent
characteristic of invention. Having failed to keep notes during his perambula-
tions, he draws upon his memory for facts and upon his imagination and the
" Deadwood Dick series of illustrated novels for embellishment. He sometimes
reverts to the Mandeville style of English and exaggeration, and after exhibiting
numerous Geological specimens, articles of dress of the natives and other relics,
among them the boomerang used by the aboriginal Americans, he sits down and
is overwhelmed with applause.
The program ends with a "free concert" of an interrogatory nature, in which
the sagacious " Prof" is quite prominent, and Pierre Van Landigham, after urgent
requests, explains how a French soldier in the Franco-Prussian war was wounded
in the back while facing the enemy. After free lunch the audience disperses.

The Exponent.
As soon as the numb, r of students in the matriculation schedule
of any college, or similar institution, becomes so large that each student
cannot see and speak to every other student every day, a college paper
becomes a necessity. Purdue has such a paper — the Exponent. This
paper, a posthumous child of the defunct Purdue, was born early in
the year iSSoVgo. A few clear, level-minded students labored earnestly
the first year and succeeded in placing it on a fairly stable foundation.
But, like all great enterprises, it had a period of decay. Its second
year was extremely checkered; but after a period of dazzling mediocrity,
it emerged Phoenix-like, in the fall of '91 from a supposed state of per-
manent desuetude.
During the past year the Exponent has been very ably edited.
[Editor.] Now and then some enterprising one of the three local editors
would write an article. There have also been a few choice bits of
poetry published from time to time.
The four Literary Societies each elect three members of the staff.
The Corresponding Secretary sometimes fails to qualify the fortunate
elected one, and the later individual (if he be a subscriber) may per-
haps find his name along with those of eleven associate editors, and
so becomes notified of his election. There are evidently too many
editors.
The Editor-in-Chief generally writes the editorials, literary articles
and locals. The department man allows himself full sweep, and takes
in everything. These two, together with the advertising editor, edit a
fair paper. The students wait for the issue, and then blame everybody
for having such a poor paper.
As a business venture the Exponent is an instantaneous success.
It cost but $85.00 to run the paper last year. This year the cost is less.

Y. n. C. A.
One of the four hundred or more college Young Men's Christian
Associations in the United States is situated at Purdue. It aims, by
its work, to elevate the moral standard of college men, to promote
Christian fellowship and brotherly love among them, and to develop
active workers for Christ. It is strictly non-denominational, and ex-
tends a hearty welcome to all.
The meetings are held on Wednesday evenings, in the Association
room, in the Experiment station, at 6:30, and consist of prayer and
praise services. Once a month they are held in connection with the
Young Women's Christian Association.
A social is given at the beginning of each term, where the students
may meet and become acquainted.
This year a lecture course was inaugurated under the auspices of
the Association, which proved quite successful. It consisted of five
entertainments, two concerts and three lectures. Another course more
attractive, if possible, than the one of this year, will be given during
the coming winter.
The management of the chapel exercises on Sunday afternoon was
also in the hands of the Association this year. These exercises were
generally lectures by men of note, from both at home and abroad, on
some moral or religious topic. Several Bible classes are maintained as
part of the Association work.
The membership this year, about seventy-five, is the largest it has
yet attained.
The officers for the past year were :
President, J. L. Mai/dby.
Vice-President, A. M. BEI.FIELD,
Cor. Secretary, A. L. WESTCOTT.
Rec. Secretary, E. H. Heacogk,
Treasurer, J. W. Burt.
Y. W. C. A.
The Y. W. C. A. of Purdue has had but a short history, this
being only the third year of its existence.
The past year has been a very busy one. With the class of '91
it lost some valuable members whose places are not yet quite filled.
Because of such extensive loss it began this }'ear with few members,
but several have been added during the year.
While not as strong in members as it seems it might be, yet there
has been a gain in strength, and it is now better able to go on with the
work than ever before.
The State Convention met at Purdue this year, December 5th -6th,
1891. It was a large and helpful gathering. Since then there has
been more earnestness in the meetings and more of the Association
spirit among the members.
The monthly meetings with the Y. M. C. A. have been of much
benefit, and it is hoped that they will occur more frequently in the
future. The end of both being the same — to present Christ to the
non-Christian, and to aid in the development of all that is best and
highest in Christian young people — they can in many ways be of much
aid to one another.
The reception given in the early part of the year by the Y. W. and
Y. M. C. A. was productive of great good to the organization, as well
as of pleasure to the numerous students present.
The officers of the past year were :
President, Laura M. Willson.
Vice-President, Amy H. Allison.
Cor. Secretary, Minnie E. Sears.
Rec. Secretary, Carrie M. De Vore.
Treasurer, Alma FouTS.
The Choir.
ORN, on Monday, September 9, 1S91, at Purdue University, the chapel choir-
said choir departed this life Tuesday, April 6, 1S92, aged six months and
twenty-six days.
A body so universally known and possessed of so many friends as the
Chapel Choir, should not be allowed to disappear from the college world without
a few remarks of appreciation from the Debris.
The immortal Shakespeare says, "The evil that men do lives after them-
The good is off interred with their bones." But we shall endeavor to speak not
only of the faults, but also of the virtues of the choir.
When the class of '92 is no longer a part of Purdue, and when we leave her
scientific halls, we shall take with us many dear memories of the past. Some of
these reminiscences will be sad, some will be sweet and tender, some will be
humorous, and some will be nameless. In this latter class may be included
our memories of the Chapel Choir.
Victor Hugo has said, " Songs, like the guillotine, cut off, indiscriminately,
to-day this head, to-morrow that." Those of our readers who have heard the
Choir are able to appreciate this sentiment.
In thinking over the life of the Choir there comes to mind a few remarks
of Mr. Nye. In commenting on the voice of the crow, Nye says, "The crow
is not a sweet singer, but he has an excellent voice for cultivation." As
much may be said for the late lamented Choir.
Purdue has experienced a wonderful growth in many directions since '92's
were Freshmen, but there is yet room for improvement. We need a new Chapel,
and we also need, (so says a member of the faculty)? " A new Chapel Choir."
Although it has never been our privilege to hear Mr. Billings sing, yet we
judge that his music resembles that of our Choir, for he says, " I seldom sing ;
I am saddest when I sing, and so are other people ; in fact they are sadder than I
am." This was the condition with the students when at chapel exercises, the
"leaflets" failed to appear in their usual places, and the choir was forced to
render the music alone. It was at such times as these that we realized the force
of the following quotation:
"Like sweet bells jangled,
Out of tune and harsh."
While the members of our Choir would not compare with the great songsters
of the world, and while their music did not stir the soul as would that of Jennie
Lind or Adelina Patti, yet to us, they were far dearer than these great artists
could ever be, for we felt that they belonged to us, that they were our brothers.
The memory of no music will be so sweet to us in years to come as that of our
Choir.
When we leave dear old Purdue, and decades hence, we sit by our fire-sides
musing over the college days of the past, man}' of our most pleasant memories
will cluster about the Chapel Choir, and we will realize all that it has been to us.
Then, one by one, will the familiar faces rise before us, and we will wonder what
has been their destiny. We will forget the torture to which they have subjected
us, and remember only their virtues, for " with all their faults we love them still."
HEN Forepaugh heard that the Purdue Military Companies were going into
camp last year, he immediately made arrangements to repair in all haste to
LaFayette. He came, and this is the record :
May 22nd, went into camp.
May 25th, 2 Lieutenants, 5 Captains, 10 Sergeants, 11 Corporals made
arrangements to see Forepaugh's show.
May 26th, Forepaugh came.
May 27th, 2 Lieutenants, 5 Captains, 10 Sergeants, 11 Corporals out of a job.
Indiana Inter=CoIlegiate Athletic
Association.
On March II, 1892, the Indiana Inter-Collegiate Athletic Association, con-
sisting of Butlers, Indiana University, DePauw, Purdue, Wabash College and
Rose Polytechnic Institute, met in annual meeting, and after admitting Hanover
to membership and Earlham to participation in field day contests, thoroughly
reorganized under a constitution presented b}T Purdue and modified in a few points.
The new organ, which was sadly needed, is exacting as to qualifications of
players, provides for fair settlement of difficulties, against irregularities in meet-
ings, etc. The organization is thorough, and puts Indiana athletics upon a firm
basis, which cannot fail to promote physical culture and elevate athletics generally.

Purdue Athletic Association.
Although Purdue had gained prominence in athletics, no well organized
direction had been given college sports until the spring of '91. Then after a
brilliant season of foot ball, flattering victories in base ball, and an intensely
exciting field-day contest under senior direction, the needs of organization
became more apparent, and on May iSth nearly the whole student body met in
the chapel and formed an association. A well defined constitution was adopted,
officers and directors elected, and aggressive work was begun.
The first official act of the board of directors was to send six men to the
Inter-Collegiate Field Contest at Terra Haute, carrying away one first and several
second places.
The association now has about three hundred members and its various enter-
prises are vigorously supported. Much of the success of the past 3'ear is due to
its careful direction and the confidence established in its methods. Athletics have
been given more dignity and a general recognition has been the result. The
trustees have donated a park of seven acres and put around it a new fence. The
prospective improvements will make it the finest athletic park in the west. It
was dedicated on April ]6th, by the Purdue-Butler base ball victory, and the
black and old gold now flash on the home grounds.

Undoubtedly Purdue has many surprises for the numerous visitors who
frequent her halls and laboratories, but probably one of the most remarkable to
the unsuspecting granger is to see a lot of people running aimlessly (apparently)
about the campus, chasing little rubber balls. Some are dressed like zebras,
others like clowns ; most of them carry a small article, resembling a fly net,
which is swung viciously about in the air. Balls fly thick and fast. Every one
seems excited ; the players seem to be foolish or to have gone crazy, for the air
is laden with expressions that do not sound well in the open air, in broad day-
light, such as "fifteen, love," and others equally absurd.
But this is our noble, scientific and fascinating game of tennis. Here all
connected with the University — from the auburn-haired professor to the brainless
Prep. — may meet on equal ground and slam balls at each other to their heart's
content.
The number and variety of participants and costumes is somewhat appalling ;
the fat man and the lean man ; the tall man and the short man; the man whose
movements reminds us of the stories so often told of Apollo, and the man whose
movements reminds the agricultural student of the shambling of the favorite
cow about the pasture when the train is passing near — all come out to enjoy the
sport.
The field is frequently graced by the presence of a number of our "co-eds.,"
whose playing often incites the admiration of the sterner sex.
The tennis enthusiast never allows the weather to thwart his game, but cele-
brates all the holidays — Christmas, New Year, and Washington's Birthday — by
lively contest on the campus, though it may be covered with snow and ice.
Nevertheless, the person who cannot play tennis loses, at Purdue as well as
almost all places, a vast amount of keen enjoyment and health)- exercise.

The Annuals.
The word "Annuals " brings to mind many pleasant recollections. For years
they have come during the " second week of the third term," and in fours.
Annual week is the gayest of the year, although it invariably comes during the
Lenten season. The boys may take the girls to all of them without spending a
cent ; they sometimes think it their duty to take two.
The Annuals are the same as the)' used to be. The same old rivalry in
decorations and in glaring programs. The ushers lead the performers to and
from the stage. But lately there has been an
evolution in dress. The days of the preach-
ing Prince Albert are Ji/iis. To be put on the
Annual may cost a performer $2.25 if he owns
not a dress suit ; and besides he must tramp
the levee next day with a large box under his
arm.
The services of the elocutionist are in
great demand during this season, and she has
the pleasure of coming to see her proteges
slay certain passages and get in an "ascend-
ing obliged prone," instead of a " descending
supine extended," when the villain does the
rubescent work. A Frenchman's heart would
fairly palpitate to hear the pronunciation of
his gliding "IA"
The orationist gets in the best effects. His situation offers exceptional
opportunities for perorating about the "palace of the millionaire and the hut
of the starving laboring man." Like the
actor, he can always fetch the gallery on
these passages.
The essayist's vocabulary is particularly
rich in such latinical words as "pessimist,"
(which is a prime favorite), "optimist,"
" proletorial," "iconoclastic," " esoteoic,"
etc.
The temptation for comparing the cen-
tralized Roman with the decentralized Grec-
ian government, and the drawing of healthy
conclusions and the giving of consequent
advice to our own government, is too strong
to be resisted, and is invariably indulged in.
The latest poet studied in class is the favo-
rite in quotations. The Freshmen use Whit-
tier and Longfellow; the Sophmore, Milton and Wordsworth ("a primrose by
a river's brink ") ; the Juniors quote Carlyle, and the Seniors drag poor Brown-
ing onto the stage and 'make him speak. Shake is thrown in passant.
The declaimer is handicapped because he cannot work in these words, but
he makes up by choosing some thrilling narrational story. If he forgets, the
best remedy is to swallow ; no difference what he swallows, just so he swallows.
Great effects are sometimes produced by having a musical accompaniment to a
"Dec."
Quoting poetry is not plaguarizing, but sometimes Eastman's Journal
is brought too prominently before the public.
The souveniric form of congratulation at the Annual — following reception,
" your production was the best of the evening," is sometimes changed to the
anthithetical " your production was the poorest of the program," but the mean-
ing is the same. It is always best to say "production," otherwise you may
call an orator's production an " essay."

Prexy: " Mr. W., did you ever gamble, play cards for money ? "
Mr. W.: " Yes, Prexy, I did."
Prexy: "You did, eh? And where did you play ? Don't you know how
utterly degrading "
Mr. W.: "I played in my room."
Prexy: " Where do you room, Mr. W.? It must surely be a degraded

Dis. Com. (sotto voce): "Gone."
Prexy: " I'll excuse you, Mr. \Y."
Prof.: " What can you say about ' Production ' ? "
Senior (after a minute's silence): " Please state your question in some other

Prof, in Pol. Eq.: " Mr. F., show that the demand for money is a real one

Mr. F.: " Father seems to think so."
First Dorm. Man: "So many people are dying nowadays while taking
baths that I have become afraid to venture near the bath tub."
Second Dorm. Man: "That's what the matter with me, too."
Prof.: " Mr. N., the difference between your opinion and that of the author
is just this; he maintains that a triangle has three sides and you claim that it
has four."
Mr. N.: " No, sir; he says that it has four, and I sav that it has three."
The Purdue Girl.
The Purdue girl is by no means a fixed and stable quantity. She changes
with the years and with the seasons of the year. In the fall she is as gay as a
muffler, but not fresh. She is noted for her attendance at foot ball games, and
niay be figured on by the manager. She is not bashful. If you fail to ask her
to go to the game she may ask you. But she is no woman's rights crank.
Purdue boys don't like those individuals, and she knows it. She does every-
thing to please the boys.
She is no dashing, heart-smashing coquette, neither is she skilled in the
milkmaid's act (as some would whisper ) — yet she does make her conquests.
Her charms have that indefinable something so noticeable in actresses.
The Purdue girls all dance, especially are they fond of " the Purdue."
They have been known to dance on Sundays, but not with the boys, oh, no!
The Purdue girl never refuses an invitation to a dance. If she can't go with
the man of her choice, she will be there anyhow.
She prefers the tete-a-tete, however. The old sofa in the Ladies' Hall
reception room is rather worn now, which furnishes a ready excuse for the use
of a single chair, which he monopolizes.
It is pleasant to escort one of the young ladies out to a soiree, and as you
pass the others sitting on the stairs to hear them exclaim sotto voce, "Nellie,
where is Jack to-night ? " (Jack is Nellie's regular attendant).
She always has a beau, the beau is generally " busted." But he can always
borrow money ; and, besides, liverymen are very trusting and patient. She
doesn't like the goody-goody boy. By no means. She rather prefers the other
kind. But he must be extremely diligent in his devotions, or she will "shake"
him. After " shaking " him she has been known to " call him back."
Every night at nine o'clock she may be seen lightly descending the Hall
steps, pitcher in hand (but making no noise), looking for the pump. She is
generally lost on the way and calling for help (not screaming, she is too brave
for that). She may be seen an hour later being escorted back to the door by
one of the boys. She is lost the next night again, and ditto.
Her hat is emblematic of her character. The long feather towering sky-
ward typifies her lofty aspirations — although some wrongly say it is a feather
of pavo cristatus and signifies her Juno-like pride. The three ribbons around
the crown typify her numerous conquests — three being a lucky number; while
the small; dumpy appearance of the crown itself is emblematic of her broad
culture. The narrow rim signifies her loyalty to Purdue — she prefers the nar-
row circle of Purdue acquaintances to the associations of a vulgar outside
crowd.
The illustration shows her sitting alone. That is a mistake of the artist.
She doesn't generally sit that way.
" Come Seven ! " rang through the deluged Dorm halls on many a night
during the long winter evenings, while a shuffle of feet and rustle of garments,
accompaning a vigorous, agonized, paroxj'mal snap of the finger, was distinctly
heard by the Debris investigator. Entering the room, he beheld all the chairs
and broken tables jumbled in the corner, whilst in the center of the room,
beneath the solitary flickering light, a crowd of wild-eyed negligee costumed,
nervous individuals watched with eager e3res the rolling dice. At each shaking
of the "bones" a wild, exulting yell emerged from the larynx of the shaker
while at the same time a "hoodoo" came from the "takers."
As the "bones" passed around, occasionally some one more enthusiastic
than the others would turn up seven after eleven, until he could find no takers.
"Seven! Ha, 'leven! I knowed it, a half !
A quarter? All right. Come, seven ! Come 'leveu !
An eight ' Good eight ! I eat, you ate !
I knowed I could eight ! What say, a half?
Take you. Ha, ss— ss ! ! A six, Bobby Hicks !
Craps, duce, that's ten, hot stuff! ah, hake !
Come six ! Bobby Hicks ! Four*n two, Five'n one !
What, seven? ' Take 'a bones? Take yoic for a half! "
The game waxes in frenziness, until the eyes of the new beginner stick out,
stalk-like, as a crayfishes'. The game continues until dawn. "Sick" next day.
There may be fun in " Push,"
An' in " chuck-luck," perhaps ;
But for hot stuff and rush
There's nothing like " shooting eraps."
The Soph's Picnic.
An invitation, the import of which was as above, was received by him on May
9U1. He immediately set out and asked his best girl to go with him. But she
could'nt. Some adventurous Sophmore had asked her last September. He
asked two or three other girls, and finally engaged himself to one.
She made arrangements with four other girls, and they made up a composite
lunch. She furnished chicken salad ; a second girl arose early
and made sixty ham sandwiches ; a third baked fifteen pies
and six cakes ; a fourth girl brought crackers and cheese, large
bologna and hard boiled eggs ; a fifth furnished table cloths,
napkins and dishes.
He called earl}- in the morning and carried the chicken salad to the station.
There they stood, freezing in their light new flannels, for an hour or two, until
the retarded train moved out. Every one was bent upon
having an "elegant time." So they all played cards on
the train, and each one tried to laugh the loudest and bid
the highest, for such was the game. Some gentlemen who
came along as stags, tried to be merry, passing from
car to car and laughing gaily. Those who did'nt play cards passed the time
away.
Arriving at the Lake, he alighted, assisted her off, and carried the basket.
Not wishing to worry her with anything, he fastened the
umbrella on his vest by some new mechanical device, and
thus managed to lug all the traps. She said, "Oh, how
lovely !"
The orchestra struck up a tune. She wanted to dance,
but he did not dance, and so he had the first chagrin of the
day, watching one of the stags who waltzed charmingly, go
\ through the mazes with her. After the first waltz she
' wanted to dance more. As he did not wish to stay and have
his blood sent tingling into his cheeks, he left and associated
with the girls who did'nt believe in dancing. He found her at dinner time and
they made up. The five couples spent a merry hour reducing the stock of sixty
sandwiches, fifteen cakes and six pies, with the crackers and the cheese and the
bologna.
A sailing party was organized for the afternoon. They sailed all around the
lake ; came home then, and she danced until supper time. What was left from
the dinner meal was wasted and six decorated china plates broken. In the eve-
ning came another dance, until time for the train to go. There was a patter of feet,
and hurrying to and fro, mingled with many underdone exclamations by
him. But the train finally pulled out an our later than the advertised time of
departure.
They arrived home late at night, tired and foot-sore. But both determined
never to miss a " Soph Picnic."
The Destruction of the Athenians.
The Purduites came down like the wolf on the fold,
The supporters we're howling like demons, we're told;
Their horns made a noise like the rock-shaking din
Of a steam engine out in a rural campaign.
Like dainty young maidens at a party at night,
Their eleven at midday looked cheerful and bright;
Like Juniors come home from a horrible night,
Their eleven at seven was a pitiable sight.
The rail -splitter's whiskers gleamed in the sunshine,
And peered at the foe when on the rush-line.
The courage of Wabash waxed weakly and chill,
Their rush-line first wavered, then forever grew still.
There lay the half with his ear torn aside,
And through him there rolled not the breath of his pride;
And the foam of his gasping lay white on the mud,
As humble as brick dust, it fell with a thud.
And there lay the tackle, o'erpowered and slack,
With dew on his brow, but no shirt on his back;
And the " Reds " were all silent, the black coons alone
With razors well stropped tried to bluff us back home.
The students of Wabash are loud in their wail;
The coons are disheartened, with sad hearts they rail;
And the pride of th' Athenians, unsmote by I. U.,
Hath wasted like snow 'fore the 'leven of Purdue.
The Big Foot Ball Man.
The big foot-ball man stood in the V rush,
His mouth and his eyes open wide;
His hands, a la fisticuff \ ready to brush
The flies off the man on the opposite side.
The quarter-back pinched, the foot ball rolled back—
The half-back then had it and ran down the line;
When suddenly a tackle and a taking-a-back —
And ten men lay on him, of half-back no sign.
When the dust cleared away, above the soiled grass
A delicious, enigmatical sight came to view.
There lay on the earth a multitudinous mass *
Of teeth, legs and arms, with a swelled head or two.
The big foot-ball man then arose from his cot,
And peered on a world that was sorry and strange;
He felt on his head a horrid big knot-
Yet he yelled " line up pillows," and jumped into place.
At the Play.
Throughout the truly tragic play
Alice sat heside me,
Her face suffused with sorrow's'ray,
Though sympathy seemed denied me.
The tears coursed down her saddened cheek,
And flushed her pale complexion.
I turned and watched the tear drops creek,
Ahsorbed in deep reflection.
After the Play.
Romeo dead and Juliet buried,
We breathed Purdue's night air.
She seemed to be heavily burdened and worried-
I touched her arm with care.
' It must be sweet to be beloved
By one so young and respected "—
I stopped her speech, with rapture moved,
And kissed her— it seemed expected.
The City Girl's Complaint.
" I've missed my car ! I've missed my ear ! '
She stamped her tiny foot;
' It left when I was just as far
Away as you from me."
' Professor scolded yesterday
Because I came so late.
I'm always tardy in algebra;
[Don't know 't, at any rate.]
' It's the third time since last Monday
I missed that car ten feet.
I walked the levee yesterday
In all that rain and sleet.
• I've missed my car ! Don't talk to me .'
I'm mad as mad can be.
I'll shake that big fat motor man —
I'm little, but I can."
Pipes.
Hear the music of the pipes-
Steam pipes.
What a world of recollections is awakened by their strikes !
How they wang, clang, bang
In the midst of recitation,
And defy all mad endeavors
To check the palpitation
Of the pipes, pipes, pipes,
With their strikes, strikes, strikes —
With reverberating clankings in their cannonading glory,
And preponderating uproar when professor tells a story;
With their wang, bang, clang, bang,
Wang, bang, clang,
And the tremor and the tumult of the pipes.
Alliterative Allusions.

The Senior sat in his savory suite
Of reeking rooms and erected
In fanciful fashion his frenzied feet,
And cuspidored his spittle.

The Junior jeeringly jumped with joy,
And shook his sides with a sneer;
Chemistry checked not his chequered career —
He cigared it serenely saux annoy.

The Sophomore smiling sweetly sought
The course to the co-ed. 's caserne.
He embraced with blooming blush his birdie—
They sofaed it with sedulous concern.

The Freshman frankly confetsed his fear
That somehow something was strange;
His grand pap was a glittering god of the Grange —
Yet he was a hollow hulk here.
A Previous Engagement.
A Freshman, I asked her to go to the play-
She had a previous engagement ;
A Sophmore, to go with the picnicers gay-
She had a previous engagement.
And so, through the Junior year, I said naught,
Nor yet let my heart by her coyness he caught;
But finally I asked her t' the Senior hop —
She had a previous engagement.

[OTHERS INCIDENTALLY.]
Air: God Save the Queen,
Fair Indies, here's to you !
Taithless, or tried and true,
We love you all.
Turn on us tender eyes,
Whilst our Platonic sighs
Mount to the very skies,
Six-foot-two tall.
Dear creature, faithful mate !
No sun can liquidate
Our debt to thee,
Whose loving hands can mend
Rents in our clothes, and tend
Door when we homeward wend,
'Twixt two and three.
Oh, widows, maids and wives —
True balm for weary lives —
Well-springs of hope !
Be like Minerva, wise;
Have Juno's jealous eyes;
Bear off lair Venus' prize,
But don't elope.
Yes, wives, our heart's delight,
We sing you here, to-night,
No college lies.
When we can't get about—
Lumbago, or the gout —
What is our home without
You and — the flies?
Oh, maiden, young and fair,
Blue eyes and golden hair,
Bright star of life !
Are you an heiress ? Say !
If so, don't tell me nay,
Be thou, this very day,
My dearest wife ! B. '88.
To a Fair Chapel Visitor,
With June-like lips
And autumn hair,
With sunset cheeks
And brow most fair,
With eyes like stars
That haunt the skies
When in the West
The evening dies—
A woman with an angel face
The college chapel came to grace.
A moment there she filled our sight,
Then passed without and all was night.

A Sacrilegious Act.
First Soft Mark . " Charley is getting to be awfully sacreligious."
Second Soft Mark : " What did he do ?"
First S. M.: "Why, did'nt you hear? The other evening he actually rode
across the levee on a beer wagon."
Second S. M.: "Heaven save him!"
The Dorm.
The Dorm is at present inhabited by a race of men whose chief occupation is
to have a good time, throw water, blow gas, and cause the faculty as much
trouble as possible. To the outsider the Dorm appears to be nothing but a large
rectangular mass of brick and stone, prison-like in appearance ; but how different
it seems to one who has made it his home for four years of his college life. It is
but a chosen few who get to make this place of mysteries their abode ; and as I
have but two months more to live in the Dorm, I do not hesitate to recite the
secrets and mysteries connected with it.
On entering the Dorm I had a room on the first floor. I was not allowed to
visit the upper floors until I was taken into the •' Royal Order of Dorm Boys."
The first night I could not sleep for thinking of what was to follow. On the
second night I was aroused by a knock. Upon opening the door I suspected
what was to take place. The boys all came in with pipes, cigars and cigarettes,
and quietly smoked until I almost fainted. Then they called for a speech. After
considerable hesitancy on my part they tendered their assistance and I was
placed upon the table. With knocking knees and trembling voice I addressed
the crowd :
' ' Ladies and Gentlemen : It is with great pleasure that I am allowed the
privilege of standing before you this evening. It is with joy I look upon the
shining countenances of so many bright faces, and — and — and — and from this I
take" — "Water!!" proposed a voice from the corner. Of this I took large
doses at frequent intervals.
I supposed this would end my first degree, but I was mistaken, as the}' began
questioning me concerning my age, what class I was to enter, the name of my girl,
her age, color of her eyes and hair, and other questions to provoke my wrath.
They asked me the size of her shoe, but I refused to answer.
I was then compelled to take the second degree. The crowd picked up the
table and lifted me to the ceiling. After knocking off several sq. yds. of plaster-
ing with my head and heels, they tilted the table to an angle of forty-five degrees
and off I slid — lighting with my head upon the floor. I was then placed in a large
canvas, specially made for the occasion. After tossing me until I hit the ceiling
and then letting me strike the floor, for several minutes, I began to get hot. Nice
cool water was then added, and my temperature fell at once. I was next taken
out and made to run the gauntlet, the boys 011 each side with pillows, cushions,
lath, shingles, chair rounds and shoe brushes, made me pass up aud down three
times. Still I would not submit.
I was then tied to a chair, and the great water throwing contest took place,
all members getting three trials. Prizes were given to the persons getting enough
water upon me to make me lose my breath (which, I think, occurred at every
throw). A booby prize was offered to the one who missed me at twenty-five feet,
but it was not taken. Still I refused to answer their questions.
I was then taken to the second floor. A rope was tied around my ankles and
I was suspended, head down, while a constant stream of water trickled down my
person. Here I weakened and gave up my secrets.
The next night a banquet was given in my honor, the Dorm orchestra fur-
nishing the music. After all were assembled, the fatted calf was carried in and
the feast began. After spending several hours here, we repaired to the dancing
hall and danced the remainder of the evening. I was called every morning for a
week before the Dorm faculty, who would question me about water throwing and
other things done by the Dorm boys. With good training I could soon lie with a
very straight face. This was given as a drill, for fear that I would be called before
the college faculty.
I now had time to wander through the Dorm corridors, reading the names of
great water throwers. I saw that the Dorm was a very convenient place, indeed,
while on the fourth floor you can empty the contents of your refuse jar upon the
professor in charge, and escape over the attic.
Many times have I realized the good of the training I received in the Dorm.
I attended many initiations after becoming a member, and enjoyed them all better
than the one in which I first participated.
The Lunch Room.
Among the little noticed undercurrents at Purdue, the city boys lunch room
is preeminently the most noisome. A four years' course in this masticating
society is a guaranteed security against sickness of the stomach and fatty degene_
ration.
When a new student from the city enters, his chums take great delight in in-
troducing him into this society. Entering the hall door, he is greeted by a very
healthy and assertive odor, but once fairly within the den itself the fumes from
old pieces of pie fairly overcome him. But before he has time to give himself up
to nausea, " whiff! " comes a piece of filet of chicken and brings him back to the
rude surroundings. While the echo is answering this first piece, a sector of mince
pie varies the monotony, followed by banana peelings, orange rinds and hard
bread (but no cake). If the newcomer is highly- susceptible to these tokens, legs
and arms of chairs are mingled with his own, while a general deluge of etceteras
adds to his discomfort. But his first experience is soon over and he gets even with
the next new man.
Once well established within this delightful retreat, the student learns to eat
amid surroundings which would deter even Chinamen. Bright stories by some
loquacious Prep, intersperse the courses, and watching the mice, in which this
resort abounds, adds additional charm to the half hour. The meetings occur
every day from 12:30 to 1:00 p. m. The first ten minutes are given up to "chew-
ing," but as soon as some member with a less grasping appetite has finished, the
fun begins. To amuse himself, he begins upsetting refuse jars, until a well-aimed
apple core comes in contact with his ear. From this time on the meetings wax in
turbulence, until the}- generally end in a row.
Within the past year the organization has become stronger, the discipline
being in charge of four directors.
The Sunday Lecture.
The chief end of man, as defined by the Purdue student whose ideas were not
early fixed by the Presbyterian catechism, is to controvert the will of the faculty
to the extreme limit that will allow him to retain permanent residence and avoid
" official " dislocation of the neck. The fellow who can keep up a steady opposi-
tion, causing a daily session of the discipline committee, yet escaping penalty, if
he have the additional accomplishment of a vacant stare, the cigarette habit, and
a "devil-may-care" swagger, rapidly rises into prominence and has an option on
everything excepting the D. C.
Among the first evidences of particular endowment is the conscientiousness
with which he abstains from "Sunday Chapel." This is cultivated until his
Senior year, when he attends bi-monthly in order to give the faculty some sugges-
tions as to how the thing should be run, casually remarking that if Ingersoll or
Depew were occasionally asked to take charge of the services it might add to the
interest.
Accordingly when "Prexy" announces the coming lecture with a stirring ap-
peal to the students to attend, as the renowned Dr. , from , will lecture
on "College Ethics" or "Thought from Bill Nye," the renowned visitor addresses
a few "preps," several aforesaid Seniors, six professors, aud more visitors, the
entire number varying inversely with the length of the announcement. The re-
nowned visitor returns to his native place and after moralizing upon the unrelia-
bility of the press, burns his Purdue catalogue and adds to his statistics the fol-
lowing : Purdue University — buildings, 12 ; students, 43 ; faculty, 6 ; visitors, 120.
During the past year however, the Sunday Lectures have been under direction
of the Y. M. C. A., and have been one of the attractive and entertaining features
of the year. Student management has aroused mutual interest, marked by good
attendance.
The lectures have covered a wide range of literary, social and religious topics,
handled in a manner and spirit appropriate to the time and place, and have been
of a very superior character. The musical talent of the city have graciously fur-
nished music for the entire year and have added in 110 small degree to the success.
The course has been a means of refinement and general culture, as well as of
religious growth.
A Co=Ed's Note.
A Sophomore " Co-ed's " note to Tommy, the day after he had taken another
girl to a party :
" My soul within itself retires, adroitly and direct.
When 'mong the throng of Purdue boys your curly locks I spy ;
Your handsome curls and wavelets around your head erect —
Thej- fit you up so handsomely, that I must cry 'oh, my ! '
" Last night I dreamt a dreamy dream, its principal actor thou ;
The Paynim foe, with sword agleam, you swept before your arm ;
With martial tread, with form erect, and spirit none could cow,
You trod them down beneath your feet — oh, how your acts did charm !
" And when it comes to Algebra and Physics lessons too,
You tow'r aloft among the jays, both head and shoulders show ;
They gaze at you, admire you, and cry with much ' boo/wo .' '
'If I could only " work " the prof, my grades wouldn't be so low.'
" Now, Tommie, do you love me still, as you last week avowed?
For if you don't I'll shake you, sure, for all your pomp and pride ;
For Jack's been round to call on me, and on his knees aloud
Declared his animated wish to labor at my side."
Here's to the Days that have Vanished.
Well, the day's work is finally over, and I can sit down by the fire,
In my jacket and slippers so easy, and fulfil my heart's fond desire.
Come hither thou fragrant Havana, thou solace for worrying care ;
Come hither thou valient old Bourbon — great scott, there's a step on the stair !
It seems to me lately I never can sit by my fire and moon,
But some one breaks in on my musing and spoils the whole theme of the tune.
There's the knock — well, come in and be hanged — so, good-bye old havana and
whisk,
Good-bye all ye fond Spanish castles ; — humph, my caller don't seem very brisk.
What, knocking again, — come in, won't you — and please leave the door in its frame,
I can't sit here yelling all evening — if you don't like it, I'm not to blame.
Well — why — smolly hoke and great fishes! — is this Jim, — what, Jim my old
chum ?
Why, sit down, take off your golashes, and hang up your hat, you old bum.
Shake again, — its an age since I saw you ; away back in days of Purdue.
And you were a blooming James dandy — and I, always in a big stew.
You remember that night when the ladies gave a dance at the old Boarding Hall.
How they asked all the fellows' attendance, but we were left out of the ball.
How we put a young kid in the window, and stole both their turkeys and stuff,
And took the whole lay to the dorm room — a great joke on the girls, but 'twas
rough.
We ate both the turks, but the candy was scorched, so 'twas sifely returned,
With a neat note of thanks and notation — " Your taffy is best when not burned."
Then when Prex gave his Junior reception, how we quietly blew out the glim,
And cabbaged the cake, cream and dainties, with never a " thank you," to him.
Those were jolly old times — have a smoke — yes, the same brand I used to keep
then.
Try a glass of this warmer, — ah ! comfort, — that's the stuff, — now we'll start off
again.
The gang — do you hear much about them ? the girls that we spooned on so hard,
There was Minnie, and Bessie and Mabel, — you should know, — you were soft as
new lard.
And Lizzie, — ah; there was the charmer — from the prairie, but chic and all that.
I suppose now she's married and settled, and probably homely and fat.
I was hit hard myself there, old fellow, I admit it, — that girl struck the chord.
And I think that all things being equal, I might now be playing her lord.
But we rowed — and we quit it, — all friendly ; yes, bless you, the crowd must'nt
know,
But I felt pretty sick and I moped some, for it struck me a pretty- stiff blow.
Do you know, I've been thinking quiet lately, if I could get track of that girl,
I believe I would make a proposal and give married experience a whirl.
But, — what's that you'resaying, — you're married ! Well, I never, — why didn't I
know ?
Where'd you meet her, — who is she,— you married ! when, what for, and how
long ago ?
Her name is — what ! — Lizzie ? — my Lizzie ? — the one that we knew at Purdue ?
She married — to you — gracious Heavings ! — You don't mean to tell me its' true !
" Inconstancy thy name is woman," — but hold on — don't mind me old boy ;
I'm only a driveling idiot, — here's my hand and I wish you much joy.
Once my fortune was told, and the gypsy said my destiny was an old bach,
I've tried mighty hard to get married, but my domestic egg doesn't hatch.
What going ? well goodbye — come often, — yes surely I'll call very soon,
And we'll have a nice chat over old times, sing new words to the same good old
tune.
Give my love to your wife, — glad you came up, — good night, — take a smoke for
your walk.
The evening has proved might}' pleasant ; Iv'e enjoyed our good old-fashioned
talk.
-x- # -x- * *■
Gone, — ah well, — such is life in great cities, — and Lizzie has gone with the rest.
Dash this smoke, — how it makes my eyes water, — well, here's to old bach, — its
the best.
No care and no worry. /';// happy — and I always will be my own boss.
Jim has got the prize cake — he is happy — and what is his gain is my loss.
But I'll turn in and dream of old Carlo, my gun and my rod and my boat,
And away to the hunt I will hurry, — with fantasmic game I will float.
One more swig, — ah old Bourbon, you're friendly, — I can always depend upon
you.
So here's to the days that have vanished, and the jolly old times at Purdue.
C. H. E., '85.
Un Reve d'Amour.
A SOUVENIR.
To-night I sit, while darkness steals
Thro' every cranny nook and peep:
The silent nigh-wind swelling in,
Would woo and soothe my eyes to sleep.
The swaying curtains now reveal
The windows, like two darksome caves,
From which the jealous darkness sweeps
And flares my light to dips and waves.
A bat, with fluttering wings sails in,
And goes careening 'round the room.
But, pirate-like, he hates the glare,
And dives again into the gloom.
No cricket chirrups on the hearth,
' No sound of night-bird's mourning note.
No rustling leaves fall swirling down,
Nor bay from out the watchdog's throat.
But, from some sleeping farm-yard far,
A single cock's crow, faint, I hear
And wonder at his wakefulness.
He tells me midnight's hour is near !
The college clock in yonder tower,
Now clangs its gong in tones so deep,
Scarce more than silence tremble on
And lull again the earth to sleep.
The shadow now creeps 'cross the floor,
Like rising tide, it grows and lingers,
Until the half is gathered in
Its black and stealthy, spectral fingers,
Across the fair face of the moon,
The scurrying clouds like witches ride.
Her 'prisoned beams no crevice find,
Thev shed no radiance far and wide.
Towards the golden Orient
She now has trod her nightly way,
Until the east-eaves come between
My view and one last tender ray.
It breaks upon my upturned gaze
An instant, through the leaden pall,
The rent is closed ! and darkness reigns,
And eerie blackness broods o'er all.
But oh, the sweetness of the touch
Upon my brow of that one ray !
Last night its sisters played upon
The pillow where my loved one lay !
I sit here while the night grows old,
And hoar and frosty is its breath;
With closed eyes, I muse and dream
Of love and life, of hope and death.
The chill that hovers near the hour
When night is struggling not to die,
Benumbs me not; my heart beats warm,
My dreams are sweet, ineffably.
I stand beside her as she sleeps,
Gently, as a tired child.
Her lashes tremble on her cheeks,
Her lips have curved until they've smiled.
Her hair is strewn in tangled web,
A golden halo 'round her face,
Upon her gently heaving breast
A white hand lays in sculptured grace.
I look upon her, while my heart
Beats wildly 'gainst its prison wall;
My breath in trembling flutters goes,
And comes to me, scarce comes at all.
I stoop to kiss her parted lips,
(Slowly I near them lest she 'wake)
I all but touch them, pausing then,
I breathe her name for sweet love's sake.
Alas, the speaking of a word !
I start, awake and gaze around
My room at school ! I see it all,
The dream is done that held me bound !
Heart-sick, I turn to seek my couch.
When, looking out towards the west,
I see the moon, just sinking low
Behind the slumb'ring hills to rest.
I breathe a message soft and low,
I feel the moon a faithful friend.
"Kiss her fair brow and tell my own
The words of love which I now send.
Tell her how my heart is ever
Longing for her without rest,
And I pray to God to keep my darling
Ever sheltered in his breast."
I throw some kisses to her then,
And say farewell for a time, I ween,
Until again I speed a message
Along the rays of the moon's fair sheen.
To westward like an ocean's wave,
Rolls on the blackness of the night.
The first gray streaks of dawn appear,
Like scales upon an armor bright.
The purple sky to turquoise turned,
Shows now the path the stars have trod.
The milky-way in mazy flecks
Like spray on spray of golden-rod.
And as the busy world awakes,
E'er sleepy Phoebus shows her face,
I murmer low my loved one's name,
And turning, seek my resting place.
Oh ! If all nights were only thus —
A dream of her, nor da}- too soon,
I could but ask for one thing more —
Her presence with me, 'neath the moon.
A Commoplace Trip.
MUlWJtf
VERY Englishman has done the Thames, and the time to do it,
since everything in England rrmst be done in season, is the
summer."
1^==^ Every Purduite has done the canal, but as yet no especial
season for doing it seems to have been discovered. It is popular
at any time of the year, and the college man who has neither
boated on it in summer, skated on it in
winter nor fished in it between times
has missed no small part of his college
life. As we push off from the boat-house steps in the
gray of the morning, the white mist is rising slowly from
the quiet surface of the water, and
the chill air which penetrates eveiifH,
our flannels has a suggestion of frost j\
in it that hints at the coming autumn. '
At first the prospect is not invi- \\
tingp and as we pass breweries, tanner-
ies and gas-houses our olfactories are
greated so effusively by aid
mingling of odors thafq
we would fain deplore our
possession of the fifth H
sense. But a quarter of -jift'fi
an hour's sharp work at
the oars starts our slug-
gish blood and puts us

houses with their spidery scaffoldings mirrored on its glassy surface
with photographic fidelity. To our left in the river bottoms, the
— mists, their tops just touched by the sun's first rays, are rising in great
soft clouds which roll gently up the hill-sides and disappear over
their tops to the westward, Nearer at hand, just over the bank,
Copperhead Pond lies, still and beautiful, its glassy surface broken only by the
quick plunge of a kingfisher.
"The sea-blue bird of March. "
He misses his breakfast and clatters angrily at us as though we were to blame
A small boy stands on the bank
watching us intently, and we put
all our strength and science into
our strokes hoping to draw from
him some expression of admiration,
in vain. As we pass him he says
slowly and solemnly; " I kin rowr
a boat." Somewhat discouraged we relax our efforts and proceed more leisurely;
and while we watch the dimples from our oar-tips go swirling astern, we meditate
on the complacancy with which man regards his own accomplishments.
To the voyageur on the canal the greatest, almost the only source of annoy-
ance is the turtle grass, and as we again enter the narrow channel, we run the
nose of our boat into its tangled meshes. It clings to our oars, weighting them
down until we can hardly raise the blades from the water. Fortunately it does
Hot extend far, and we are soon pulling through clear water once more. On
either hand lie low, marshy fields, plentifully sprinkled with ponds, over which
the mists are still hovering. Straight ahead the beautiful Springvale Cemetery
closes the vista, one slender obelisk standing out sharp and clear against the
eastern sky.
Opposite Springvale the canal suddenly narrows, and along the banks the
turtle-grass once more encroaches up in the open channel. The arrowheads rear
their pointed leaves and bulging
seed-pods, and in the fence cor-
ners the sumacs flaunt their
torches. We round a turn in the
canal, and there, at the end of a
long, straight reach of water, are
the locks.

Sitting on a cross-beam in the
,}5f" sunshine we eat our breakfast — a
~*°- breezy world of light and sound
around us. The clouds are piling
up around the horizon in great
white masses, promising a showery afternoon. The water is ruffled into patches
of intense blue. Far overhead we catch the gleam of sunlight on the wing of a
hawk, as he sails down the wind.
But we do not linger long, as work is before us; for the locks are most truly
locks, and the combination has been lost these many years. So we push, and
pull, and haul, and at last our boat floats lightly upon the waters of the Wild Cat,
and we rejoice (prematurely, as it turns out) that the difficulties of our voyage
are over.
We float idly down the beautiful stretch of water above the dam, slide our
boat down the fish-way. and are soon whirling along between high banks, which
shut in the windings of
the stream. As we shoot
over a riffle an ominous
scratching on the bottom
of the boat warns us to
be careful, but we forget
it the next instant as we
plunge into the swirling
current under the bank,
where our utmost efforts
are needed to keep from
being capsized. The only
formidable obstacle we
encounter is an immense tree which has fallen across the channel. It is too near
the water to allow of our getting under, but the boat is at last hauled over its
prostrate trunk and once more launched below, though sadly soiled by the dirty
foam collected on the upper side of the drift.
We spend the remainder of the morning in this fashion, occasionally landing
to explore the woods and fields, and just at noon we emerge from the windings of
of the creek upon the Wabash. Pulling up stream a short distance we land under
Birmingham Bluffs, and spread our lunch near the great spring which makes
this spot a favorite camping ground.
All the long, lazy afternoon we drift slowly down-stream or lie along the
shad}* banks. As we approach Davis' Ferry (a favorite object-point for afternoon
sailing parties') the great unwieldy boat crawls sluggishly across our course, laden
with country folk returning from their day's shopping.
/"Jl l+i, B,a ipn
The cool, shady opening among the cottonwoods through which Burnett's
Creek finds its way to the river, tempts us to explore its beauties, but the mos-
quitoes, even this late in the summer, are still aggressive, and our stay is a short
one.
Past Tecumseh's Trail, past the islands, past Cedar Hollow, we float; and
when we make a landing at the Big Spring the sun has long since sunk behind
the hills that border the River Road, the cool evening breezes from the hollows
ripple the surface of the river, the stars are coming out, and the lights of LaFay-
ette twinkle in the distance.

ME NEW WEBSTER'S DICTIONARY
A GRAND INVESTMENT FOR FAMILY OR SCHOOL.
The Authentic Webster's Unabridged
Dictionary, comprising issues of 1864,
'79, and '84, (still copyrighted), has
been thoroughly revised and enlarged,
under the supervision of Noah Porter,
I >. IK. 1,1.. D.,of Yale University, and as
a distinguishing title, bears the name
WEBSTER'S
International Dictionary.
The work of revision occupied over
ten years, more than a hundred edi-
torial laborers having been employed,
and over $300,000 expended before
the first copy vras printed. Every page
has been treated as if the book was
now published for the first time.
Critical comparison with any other
Dictionary is invited.
Sold by all Booksellers.— Descriptive Pamphlet free on application.
Caution is needed in purchasing a dictionary, as photographic reprints of an obso-
lete and comparatively worthless edition of Webster are being marketed under various
names and often by misrepresentation.

■'A word about the Baldwin Pianos. In a quiet way the Baldwin house has
been making the Baldwin Piano, and selling all they make at retail. The instru-
ments are carefully constructed, and in appearance follow the best models of
American uprights. The tone is surprisingly powerful and penetrating, and is
endowed with what is known as the "carrying" quality, the vibration being free
and sustained. The touch is sympathetic and responsive, and the piano is alto-
gether a pronounced success that justifies a rapid development of this department
of the plant. All that has been accomplished with the Baldwin Piano was done
in Cincinnati, by Cincinnati workmen, and the scale itself — an original scale,
too — made by D. H. BALDWIN & CO., who do not believe in copying scales." —
