Paper of 1 Doz.' a ————S—S=S== AMONG THE LAW STUDENTS. What is Going on in the Professional Schools. Class Organizations Perfected —Om- cers Elected in Different Schools— Questions Being Discussed. Work at the law schools is moving on Steadily. The first month is now past and the students have their work well in hand. The new men are becoming more familiar with the workings of the institutions. . The debating society at Columbian Law School will consider at their meeting to- night the subject: “Resolved, That the negro should be disfranchised.” Those who will lead in the discussion will be Messrs. C. M. Story and Paul Finckel in the affirmative, and Messrs. R. L. Jackson | and A. A. Davis in the negative. The junior class at Columbian met Thurs- day night and received the report of the committee appointed to draw up a constitu- tion, The consideration of this report | however, was deferred until the first Thurs- day in December, in order that a larger number of the members of the class might be present when it should be adopted. Some of the students at Columbian have already fixed their eyes on the tempting vision of the prizes which ere awarded each year to the successful contestants. The prizes which this institution awards each year are as follows: A prize of $100, called “The Parker Prize,” in honor of its donor, Myron M. Parker, is | awarded to the student who passes in each year the best examination for the degree of bachelor of laws. A prize of $0, called “The Britton Prize,” in honor of its founder, Alexander T. Brit- ton, is awarded to the student who passes | in each year the best examination for the | degree of master of laws. Three prizes, one of $10, one of $30, and one of $20, are annually given to the respec- tive authors of the best three essays among | all those handed in by such members of the | senior class a$ shall compete for them and shall pass a successful examination for the degree of bachelor of laws. Two prizes for exeelience im debate are | awarded by the debating society. | The three classes of the National Law School have during the past week compieted | their class organizations and are now ready | to choose class emblems, to arrange for com- | mencements and banquets and to transact other momentous business. | The post-graduate class held its meeting | Monday evening. Officers for the ensuing term were elected as follows: President, Shelby Clark; vice president, Chas. E. Rior- | don; secretary, B. A. P’Poole; treasurer, W. P._ Lockwood. | | Wednesday evening was the time set for | the organization of the senior class. An organization was effected and the following | members selected to fill the various posi- | tions in the gift of the class: President, | Chas. E. Paul; vice president, W. Ray Har- rison; secretary, E. ¥. Mitchell; treasurer, | Norman R. Metcalf. | The juniors met on Tuesday evening and | selected the following officers: President, R. T. Fraysier; vice president, F. R.

A. Ambrose, H. N. Price, H. K. White, E. D, Jones, W. F. Osborne, Frank Randolph. The debating society of Georgetown Law School. at its meeting last week discussed this subject: “Resolved, That eloquence is essential to high success at the bar.” The affirmative was supported by Messrs. J. J. Dolan, Wm. McDevitt and Waldron, and the negative by Messrs. R. A. Heiskell, | Griffin and D. O. Morgan. The decision on the question was rendered in favor of the negative. The principal argument on the affirmative was presented by Mr. Dolan, who opened the debate. His speech occupied about twenty minutes and was filled with telling | points in support of his view of the question. Mr. D. O. Morgan, who spoke on the nega-_ tive, delivered an argument which abounded in witty thrusts. He said that what judges and juries needed were facts and not rhetor- ical flourishes. Last night the debate was on the subject: “Resolved, That the aggregation of wealth in the hands of a few is imjurious to free government.” An interesting discussion of this impor- tant proposition occupied the evening. The speakers on the affirmative were Messrs. J. W. Langley and J. P. Gunn, and on the negative Messrs. E. H. Booth, C. W. Darr and W. B. Bankhead. The officers of this society are: President, Wm. McDevitt; vice president, D. D. Dono- | van; secretary, W. Streetor. steam ease YOUNG WOMEN’S HOME. | Officers of the Christian Organization m Gth Street.
