EDITOIUALS. THIS I SSUE of the J ouRNAL is made the official

·organ ol th·e· Q.uiiiqnermites Association, whose rule it is that the members communicate to one another their whereabouts and doings through the J OURNAL. By thus becoming the vehicle of interesting news concerning present and former students of the col­lege the J ourmAL . answsrs its own pmpose : to be a medinm of .communication between alumni and actual students.

"' * * THERE HAS been developing of late a laudable

interest in vocal music, both among the seminar­ians and the students. The regular lessons as well as g rOli.ping together of the singers into one place in the chapel promises splendid results. Singing is ?ne. of the fine arts and an attainment which every­on~ who .has aptitude thereto should strive to mas­ter. ..

• * THE LATE examinations in the elocution classes have given evidence of high abilities in the refining art of oratory.

FOn THE encouragement of our military boys we reprint the Chicago Herald's account of the brill­iant doings of our Lrothers-in-arms, the Holy Name Bchool Cadets. · · ·

* * * CONSEQUENT upon the late examinations sever­important changes have been made in the classes. Among the more note worthy promotions is that of several brilliant members of the C!Bsar class to the Virgil class.

* * * THROUGH the obliging kindness of orir Holy

N arne School friends we are enabled to state a few faets relative to the late splendid fete of the young zouaves. The "HERALD" counted 1500people where­as there weTe not over 1200; instead of 100 zouaves in uniforms there were 150; not Miss. F itzpatrick, but Miss. Becldin read the presentation address. Great interest in behalf of the boys was manifested by the Hev. Clei·gy, and the Rev, Brothers in charge of the Holy Name School. Besides H is Grace the Archbishop, several priests were present among whom were Revels. JYI. J . Fitzsimmons, F. N. P er­ry, N . J. Mooney and F. O'Leary. The musical part of the programme, which had been under the able mauagement of Rev. F. N. Peny, ·was one of the most enj oyable features of the evening, and show­ed that the boys were not less skilled in using their vocal than their military powers. The faultless, and excellent exhibition of military manceuvres by the cadets reflects great honor upon their painstaking instructor Rev. I<'r. JYiahoney, and the young sol­diers cannot do too m nch to secure both his affection and his services.·

Tl1e org:1 nization is so en­terpri sing and worthy a one, that his G race Archbishop Feehan consentecl to be present at an enterta inment nt t he school hall , at w hi ch, very appropria tely, the g irls of the Holy Name P nrish exhibited their interest in th e cad ets by prese11ting them with a ~ ta nd ot co l or~" of t heir own making, which could not, asid e ft·om a labor of love, be reprod uced for less than $~00. The cadets mustered 275 strong. and fully one hundred of them were . decorated in their att ractive new uniforms. A dep­putation of fitfty cadets was present from St. Stanislaus, the P olish pari sh, and were honored wi th reserved seats,

· but the ca.cl ets of the Holy Name were massed upon the li1;oad stage and COJ, sti tuted the object of at traction of t he evening. The boys looked VPry gay in their brilli_ ant uniforms and were manifes tly proud of the fine showing which they made. T heir trowsers are of scarlet atter the zouave pattern , wi th dress jackets of blue, dec . orated with heavy gold braid, over a white vest. Their caps_ are of a new design, having been mfl.de from a com­monsense pattern somewhat after the Turkish smok in g cap with its heavy silken t assel, but with an arch of purple silk exten<i ing over all from side to side. They looked vPry neat, and bore themselves as genuine sol-dier boys. ·

The programme was varied to suit the circumstances . After tbe hall had been crowfl ed the grand entree of the cadets excited the aud ience to prolonged cheers. The little fe llows marched in, in time, military sty le, with their short r ifl es, stepping to the measured beat o f the gorgeously dressed drum corps, and tormecl in parade on t he stage. After half an hour devoted to sin­ging, about fitLy li ttle misses from the girls' school of H oly Name ma rched in , beaded by half a dozen you ng ladies of the Sodali ty, carry ing the colors. The boys formed a hollow square to recei ve them, and the move-

The presentati on address was matle by M,iss Fitz­pat rick, a teacher in in one of the public schools a1.1d the response by C:Lptain G iblin, a boy soldict· o£ about fourteen years, was heartily applauded, Some fifty of Lbe girls wer\3 clre~se1l as gy psies, _all_9 -~.ntertaj •Jed the ll UUiCflCe with :1 gy psy song 11ncl d!lnCe, with tambqprine accompaniment.

For this they were h'eartily applau cferl. The feature of the evening was the picked ~qn:ttl drill, in whi ch the entire squad went· through the manual movement like clock-work. without a word of com­mand. The audience were delighted, and loudly che!)red them. The cadet ::, presented Father 1\Iahoney, their pre­ceptor in tactics, witll a valu able golil -headed cane, and the programme wal' ended by a pleasant address from the arehb ishop, with his blessing for tlH~ · cadets.

I, a constant reader of the CoL­LEGE J ouRNAl., was pleased to see in it.'l last issue this short b ut pleasing notice.

Quin quenniLes 87-92 : " Please forward the letter pre.

scrib ·~d by the rules <J f om association, etc." I said pleas­ing notice because it reminds each member of said soci­ety (as also outsiders) that be or they would read something exceptionally diverting and interesting in the next. paper.

:K ow in order that this epistle may not be t•)O tedi­ous to its readers, I will do jlist as I was asked , write a short. and formal epistle, containing my doings since I left college. After leaving my "Alma Mater'' last June, I enjoyed myself for two successive months as much as one could desire, viz., going to divers shows, to theatres,

Dear Friend: H erein nnd throi1gh you do r bi<t a kindly greeting

to nll my fellow qninqennites. S(wernl nrc here yet but mnny are now out in the

b1 o!td field . ' Of these a t present is my min<{ most thoughtful, fur

a y ear has t:1assed and many changes may have met them. Not to si)ea k of upper life and other changes in pet'sona l appearances,-wrinkled brows nnd care-worn countenan ces, I imng ine many of my now worldly friends who i< pent sevemi y ears behiod the "old oaken <'lesks'' have by this time found some difference between college and rear lite. No d oubt they no w and then find occasion to put into practice some rule or maxim they hacr iear1lt, or maybe some fact or figure lias made them feel quite prominent.

Also 'a few lines of their fav01·ite poet may have help­ed to m~ke sweet the evening hours and even by a lu cky ncc ident to some one a life's partner.

Now there comes to my mind a scene that places you all before me. You 'will all remember a year ago our full assembly in Class-mom ~o. 3. Remember too, how onr soul ,; 'di.4 fairly swim in smiles and how we glowed with· the happy· thought -of what om little society pur­posed to do in the future, our promises to write annu­ally and, though ocenns rl ivide us, t.o meet in '92 at ''Old S~. V iateur'~.' ' You will remember too that our goorl J ohn S-n smoked a cigar, or rather a part of one, that evening in honor of the venerable father of our Couhtl.'.¥•

As·youi may bave already inferred. I am still a toiler in the "old d iggings'',. and have a bat.peg in the room whose walls you mtty have helped blacken.

. mutiny arises, several are killed, and' they re turn with · the money. The stot·y is interspersed with several other men, characters which also add to the interest of the nanation. The only fault th:\t can be)airl to the work is that there is not enough of it.

We thank ltev. Fr. B )11 wantnra, 0 . S. F., o ; L'l ­fa;rette, Ind., for a fine copy of his elcga.nt Ge rm:tn tt-anslatiou of the deservedly popular novel ••Ben Hur.'' 'Ve. must say, after rearliug it, that the work is quite ,a.n ncquisition to Germ·m literature. The excee•lingly lrt rge sale which this translation has harl argues the excel ­lence of Fr. B~nmventura's taste and ability. We unde r~

stand that It<~.lian anri French tmnslations of t.hi > su pe1 b novel are soon to be publtshed, if they have not already appeared.

~Varka, Tlte Nihilist (Harper&Bros.) by K.O'lVIeara, is going the rounds of the reading circles with. no little fav'or. The style of this book is refined and th<( tone of the story wbolesvme. The workings ot the plo t are wel l interwoven anct the interest never fhgs . The chief merit of the novel is the remlll'!mbly well-drawn rhn.n1cter of Sister Margarite, who is really an interesting anrl a real personag-e. One gather a goorl deal of the natnre and effects of Russian nihilism from the l:itory which, even for this alone, repays perusal.

The Fair God (Boston, Houghton, Mifflin & Co.) The reading public is not unacquainterl with the author of this beautiful novel-on the contrary we have ~~n been so taken up with Ben Hur that it is with a thrill of sur­prise at otwe and of a.~xious expectations that we open this new casket which we , naturally suppose must con­tain wonders of all kinds. And so it does open to our eager gaze, in W allacB's owr.. bright coloring, th ings wondrous strange. The book, though not equal upon the whole to "Ben Hur," abounds with brill i'lnt descriptions of luxuriant Mexico, aud tells of tile amazing relgiou:; practices and the no.ble daring of the early Mexicans.

Vol. VI. of the Na1·rative · and Critical H istory of America (Boston, Houghton, Mifflin & Co.) has been received and is as attractive and interesting as the oth­er volumes ot this great work. The present vol. treats largely of out struggle for independcne. There is a copi­ousness of editorial notes and comments appended to the essays, with numerous and curious illustrations, olrl manuscripts, maps, liberty sc•ngs, etc., which much en­hance this volume.

The Musical Record (Oliver Ditson & Co.) continues to interest us with everything that is interesting in the ine of musical gossip and to delight us with the elegant

airs which every number is always sure to contain. "A M~:~:iden's Dream," by Max Mueller, in the cunent num .. ber of the Record is a piece of much sweetness.

"TI..t~ advantages of a Protective Tariff to the L abors

and Industries of the United States" is a fine compe­titirm essay written by Crawford D. H erring-. In this es-a.y the writer sh0n-s the ad v::m1ages which arise from

the m:tn n fnctorng of our own g0ocls iusteaC:. of depE'nd­ing upon Enghnc1 or any other foreign country, and how thcs<' gt'e:n a<1Ynntage coulrl be realized only by the Protc·cLi\·e system . He compares t he condition of the wurki!lgmen a century ago with their conditions at the prc3cll t tl 'lY, and tilct eby show J that at that time

' the Ia borers enjoyed feiY of those com forts that are re_ ganled :ts Jicc:ess:1ri es to-day. He proves many other like :t.dvantages whieh wr. enjoy on account of the Protec­t ive Tariff. Tbrougltc ut the whole composition we can ju<lgc the commo:1 H'IL~e of the writer. Speaking of the bbor under free trade he says; " In the early period uncl·cr free trade the condition of ourlabor and industries was miser:tble in the extreme, and had fren trade con­tinued the ir cond ition doubtless would have improved bu ~ little. Bnt thi s-condit ion would be prosperous in com­p!lrison of that to which Lhey wou ld descend if we retur­ned from Protection to free trade.'' Again, speaking of the u neertn.in c:onseq uences of free trade , he says " Is it, I nsk, mtional to e:s:c!Jange for the vague and fictitious advantages of free tnHle those real anrl manifest arl van­tages ofa pl'Otective Tariff to the Labor aud Industries of the United States?''

EXCHANGES. The Normal J.lfon itor, is g iven principll.lly to local

and personal. Two pretty good articles on Labor also grace its pnges.

"The Ideal Etudents", is the t!tle of a well written and prae1.ical artid e in the Feb. No. of the North Wes­tern Chronicle. It is full of good sense and we could <;>,··ish to see it read and remembered by every student.

The Hamilton College Monthly is always a model of neatness :wd the Feb. numbers is no exception. The Ex. Colnmn is given principally to the man who wb" nllegul the obscurity of the JJ{on fhly, a timely cot· rection and woman's forbearance ~aved him. Well done g irls. \Vc hope your light sllallnever grow dim.

The "Illini" has many interesting articles, both Li­f PI'(II'!J and Scimtific.

.Art is an elegant :t.rticle in the Scholastic ancl nbly treated in a II its details.

Tl1e Fonlhrun llfonthly is certainly .the most pictur­esque of all our exchanges and this together with the high st:tndard of its literature makes it a very desirable

friend. The Univers'ity Jionthly takes plenty of room for its

ex business. We also acknowledge the Niagra Index. Emo·ry
