ALUMNI IN ATTENDANCE The annual banquet of the Alumni Asso- ciation of the Columbian University was held last evening at the Ebbitt House, and upward of 125 of the loyal sons of this fine old institution met together to talk ver past experiences and to renew the Pleasant associations of college life. It was a- splendid gathering of men from all walks of life, although, of course, the representatives of the learned professions largeiy predominated. About the tables were gathered many of the mem who are leaders here in the church, at the bar and in the practice of medicine. They ran from grave to gay, from the gray-haired gtaduate of half a century ago down to the young men who received their diplo- mas only last June. An Enthasiastic Gathering. It was an enthusiastic gathering, for the Columbian alumni have much to be proud of. In the history of the university, which extends through the most of the nine- teenth century, great. advances have been made along every line of educational work, and, as one of the speakers expressed it, Columbian University stands today the leading institution ‘of learnirig in the capi- tal city of the greatest mation on the face of the globe. This of itself is an incentive to success, and the university has not been slow to profit from its advantages. In its three-quarters of a century of life it has increased in its resources until today it has an endowment of a round million of dollars, and a few of the older graduates, who were students when the college was up on 14th street beyond the boundary, re- member when it numbered less than a hun- dred undergraduates all told. Today in the college, the law school, the medical school, the Corcoran scientific school and the pre- paratory school there are in the neighbor- hood of an even thousand students en- rolled. A pleasant feature of the reunion last evening was the cpportunity the alumni had to congratulate themselves upon the honor which has come to one of their num- ber. Postmaster General Wilson was him- self a graduate of the university, and for a time one of its honored professors. He was present at the banquet last evening and was given a royal welcome by his brother graduates. The Banquet Committee. ‘The banquet was in charge of the execu- tive committee of the Alumni Association, which is composed of Mr. J. H. Gordon, Mr. Chapin Brown, Professor A. P. Mon- tague, Mr. George Steiger, Dr. J. H. Gallo- way, Mr. E. L. Thurston, Mr. A. S. Worth- ington, Dr. L. L, Friedrich, Mr. E. H. Jack- son and Mr. W. S. Harshman. Mr. Jesse H. Wilson is the president of the alumni, and the other officers of, the association are Dr. W. E. Handy and Mr. A. C. Bran- denburg, vice presidents; Professor H. L. Hodgkins, secretary, and Mr. John B. Lar- ner, treasurer. To the indefatigable ef- forts of the secretary in arranging the details of the banquet much of the suc- cess of the occasion-was due. ‘The banquet was served in the main dining room of the Ebbitt, and it was com- pletely filled with the tables necessary to accommodate so many guests. The room was tastefully ornamented with palms, and the floral decorations of the tables were Easter Mlies and pink roses. Behind a sereen at one end of the room was station- ed a string orchestra, which rendered an appropriate program of popular airs and college songs during the evening. The menus were two cards tied together with ribbons of blue and gold, the college colors. On one was printed the menu and on the other the list of set toasts, each of which was accompanied by a quotation appropri- ate to the subject assigned. Prior to the banquet an informal reception was held in one of the large parlors, when the alumni had-a chance to greet old friends amd make new acquaintances. It was S:30 o'clock when the guests sat down et the table, and it was long after that before the speak- ing was completed. ‘The Speech Making. Mr. Jesse H. Wilson presided at the ban- quet and made a most efficient toastmaster. In opening the speech making, which be- gan with the appearance of coffee and cigars, Mr. Wilson made a brief address, which was repiete with remini: es when the college was on Kalorama hill. He re- ferred gracefully to a youns professor of those days who has grown to such a stat- ure since that the people of the whole land are familiar with his name and fame. His eloquence has filled the halls of Con- gress, and today he occupies a prominent seat in the President's cabinet. Mr. Wil- son paid a high tribute to Columbian, whose graduates, he said, today fill many of the most prominent places in the land, in the courts, in the churches, in the prac- tice of medicine and in journalism. He also touched. upon the value of a- college education in enlarging’a man’s mental horizon, and spoke words of praise to the memory of Dr. Welling and Mr. Corcoran. He then introduced the acting president of the university, with an expressing of the hope that some day he would find himself vested with the full title of president. President Greene's Address. “The Columbian University” was the subject of the toast asigned to Rev. S. H. Greene, D. D., with the appropriate quota- tion, “Education is the chief defense of nations,” from Burke. Dr. Greene spoke eloquently and with feeling of the memory of Dr. Welling, whose familiar face has marked so many gatherings of this sort in years gone by. Then he passed on to refer to the wisdom of the founders of the uni- versity. The original charter provided for denominational teaching and ministerial culture, but it went beyond this, in that it took under its aegis all the broad and gen- erous branches of a liberal education. “But leaving the past,” said Dr. Greene, “let us come down to the present and to the consideration of the question, ‘What have we today?’ First we have the heritage of the sacred memories of the past, and these are neither mean nor insignificant. The university today has a round million in buildings and grounds and in prdduc- ing investments, and there is not an in- stitution in all this broad land that, on the basis of the capital available, is doing the work that is being accomplished by Columbian University. So we have the memories of the past and its inherited wealth. If we come to speak of the grow- ing enthusiasm of the sons of Columbian, We come to one of the most potent elements of present strength, As for the future, we have the most natural educational center in the country. Dr. Welling never spoke a truer word than when he called atten- tion, as sho g the value of yoann Seeeteey eerrrereres Iesloaongongontoatonteateatenteetony : ROYAL } + BAKING } ER $ $ Absolutely Pure. z SZ A cream of tartar baking powder.

Columbian has the right of way and we have the “inspiration o} magnificent opportunity. There never has been such a glorious opportunity as Co- ie lan has today with the infiuence of iftine agencies of the closing days or tne alnéteenth century. “the e need: the hour are many and the first of t! fe is the need of more complete organization among all the ranks of those connected with the university. With 1,200 resident graduates, it is too bad that not one-half that number could be here tonight. The future of the university is in this room. If our alumni ‘could stand shoulder to shoulder success would be assured and the future would be pre-empted. Let us be still more loyal to our alma mater and say right out that she is doing a better work even that we. give her credit for.” “Old Columbian” was the toast assigned to Mr. William F. Mattingly, who talked interestingly of the life and methods at the college when he was a student and walked each day from his home in George- town out to College Hill. There were few houses north of K streét then and no street car lines. The number of students at the college was between” sevent9-five and eighty. On one occasion he tried to go out with some friends to a reception given by the president on the occasion of a com- mencement. The mud was so deep that they could not make the trip, and it had to be abandoned. He then spoke of the protessors of -that day, giving some inter- esting reminiscence’of each, and read over some old examination papers of nearly forty years ago, which he discovered among his college mementoes a few days ago. ° The Law Student's Mecea. Mr. A. 8S. Worthington spoke to the toast “Washington City, the Law Student’s Mec- ca.” In the course of his address he said that the students of Washington have an immense advantage in that they can have as teachers the justices of the highest ccurt of the worid. They can call upon Harvard and. Yale to show a match for Harlan and Brewer. Then we can see com- mon law worked out here in common law procedure as it is nowhere else in the world. We have here a system of practice that is out of date, the practice of hun- dreds of years, one might almost say a thousand years ago. This is a great train- ing for students, but, remarked Mr. Worth- ington, it is a little tough on the people of Washington. We have here as nowhere else presented the problem of the relation of the municipal to the national govern- ment. It is a problem that well deserves the attention of the students-of the law. Mr. Worthington then went on to speak of the anamolous condition of the people of Washington, taxed without representation. He said that while he did not care to have his views on the matter of suffrage-taken for too much on this occasion, he did think that the matter of local government here is one that should receive the most careful | attention at the hands of every serious- thinking man. Other Speecche: Speaking on the toast, ‘Hospitals the Best Medical Schools,” Dr. L. L. Friedrich delivered a speech, but coming down to the subject assigned to him spoke of the value of hospital work in medical training, and said that he looked for the day when Co- lumbian would have in connection with it a perfect and model hospital, commensurate in size and archicectural appearance with the city and the institution it would repre- sent. There could be no more worthy way in which some of the millionaire friends of the university could show their interest than by providing for such an institution. Prof. Otis T. Mason responded to the “New Fledged Graduate.” Prof. A. P. Mon- tague spoke eloquently and impressively of “New Columbisn,” and Mr.H.5.Davis, in the absence of Mr. H. R. Martin, the treasurer of the University, spoke to .“Old Money Bags.” Postmaster General Wilson was also introduced for a brief speech before the adjournment. Some of Those Present.

Metzerett’s, on “Church Architecture,” was evem: more interesting than that of the previous evening. Mr. Mc- Bee’s theme last evening was the interior of church architecture, and,!as before, the speaker declared that - there must be a message and an inspiration in the handiwork of mason, wo@d carver and glassmaker. The distinétion between art for art’s sake and architecture for archi- tecture's .sake was agaiw dwelt upon, and it was made the Clearer"by¥an allusion to Michael Angelo’s Moses, which, Contrary to the world’s great conception of the Prophet as the meekest man, shows a mighty creation, tremendous in its power, and in no wise conveying the moral and spiritual lesson expected from the charac- ter. So, too, with the David, which was pictured as a powerful man, instead of a spare, God-fearing youth, and, as Mr. Mc- Bee said, really made one feel sorry for Goliath. The controlling principle . of church interiors was shown to be unity of purpose, the one altar broad and high, so that it could be seen of all who found wel- come in the church. The illustrations of many cathedrals, no- tably St. Maria de Maggiore and St. Sophia, showed the confusion of many altars, while the great cathedrals of Durham, Peter- boro, Litchfield, York,. Notre Dame and Rheims illustrated the splendid force of the single and emphasized altar. Through all the illustrations, which were magnificent from first to last, the crowning excellence of the Gothic arch, with its point of inspi- ration and uplift, and the “deep, welcoming shadows,” was apparent. The pictures of the great window at York, with its stone styll four feet deep, and its balcony, run- ning across the window, and so frail and slender that it seemed to be only tracery, was one of the most interesting of the evening. The wood carving in some of the altar screens of the English cathedrals and the facades of some of the Spanish cathe- drals was shown in great distinction and beauty. Sergt. Dale: ——__— Presided.
