The Law Building Is More Than

erowded tb is year. With such rapid growth the only alternative will be a larger building is the near future. As the fees in that department more than pay its running expenses, a demand for a larger and better building could not very well be refused. The old campus fenee is gone, that is ■what hadn't already been quietly spirited away to furnish light for numerous ííallowe'en pranks. Many a freshman will be glad and sophómore rejoice that he will never be shot into raid air to suddenly land on the other side of that historie landmark. It is gone, but never to be forgotten by many of past generations. We print in another column a coinmunication from one of our citizens npon an evil that is becomiug altogether oo common in this city. As snggested by our correspondent it is time that some of the scamps whoarecontinually insulting ladies on the streets after dark should be taken in charge by the city authorities and dealt with as they richly deserve. It now seems that the old cemetery matter is about to be settled. Mr.Whitman having conferred with the board of public works and the city authorities, satisfactory terms have been arrived 'at. As a result, a proposition will be made to the city council next Monday night which will, without doubt, be accepted. This will be fortúnate for the city and will relieve Mr. Whitman from much bitter opposition which would certainly have followed any attempt on his part to take possession of the old cemetery. Mr. Whitman's readiness to drop the claim of Mr. Joslyn against the city, and to offer to compromise with the city on the cemetery question, shows him to be more willing to do the fair thing than some people had givun him credit for. Mb. Emil Baür has translated, for the láenefit of the committee on Germán in our public schools, an address delivered before the German-American teachers in Chicago last July by Prof. Peaslee, ex-superintendent of schools in Cincinti, Ohio. We shonld be glad to reproduce the article in our columns, but aar limited space will not permit. Mr. Peaslee became very flrmly convinced, from his experience in Cincinnati where Germán is made an optional gtudy, that the effect wero excellent, and ritrongly urges that other schools introduce the study into the ward schools Mr. Baur's translation of Prof. Pea8lee's address is a very readable one nad will no doubt have agood infiuence with the committee who have the matter under consideration. Two Kentucky gentlemen differed in their views about the management of the political party to which they belonged. As is usual with the honorable gentlemen of that state when differences arise between them, no appeal is made to reason. The two, therefore, with the slightest pretext for a quarrel, proceeded to adjust their differences in the usual way, namely, with knives and pistols. This was last Thursday. Since then they have both been buried. Such people are more to be pitied than blatned, for they have never been taught to consider the feelings of an antagonist orto control tbeir tempera while dealing with one. As a result lhy are more abject slaves to their passions than the negroes ever were to their masters.
