THE EVENING STAR, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1896>-TWENTY-FOUR PAGES. THE NEW ° LIBRARY BUILDING, NOT YET COMPLETED. . LIFE AT PRINCETO Where isto Be Celebrated the Sesqui- Centennial Anniversary. IN MOMENTS OF STUDENT LEISURE Then the Club Houses Become Centers of Interest. A DAY AT THE CLUB Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. PRINCETON, N. J., October 15, 1896. If there’s any one thing that impresses a visitor after a short stay among the stu- derts here it is their unconventicnality. Everybody knows everybody; it isn’t a crime to speak to 2 man without an intro- duction, and you don’t have to address your roommate as “Mr.” One has only to walk across the campus any evening to get a fair sample of this free and easy spirit. A window in Ded Hall is opened and a head poked out. Hello, Bitly Hayes.” Silence fo!lows for & moment, and then again: “Hello, Billy Hayes.” Frem a room in Edwards Hall, perhaps 200 feet away, comes back the arswer: “Hello, Tommy. What's the row?" ay, Billy, what'd he give in physics tomorrow?” he next ten pages, and you'd better too, for it's no snap.” “All right,” and the two windows go down with a bang, the one in Dod Hall erhaps the harder, as Tommy thinks of Eattling with another ten pages about ergs and dynes and acceleration. get Cottage Club. Nobody ever thinks of going up to a man’s room without first finding out from the sidewalk whether he is in, and every man si his own telephone all over the cam- pus. It may seem strange to one whose soul is overloaded with formality, but it’s @ typical piece of Princeton life. Princeton has no secret fraternities, and it will probably always be a mystery to fraternity promoters how she manages to exist without them. She has, however, es for the fraternity which ac- h all that the fraternity does, and s a little more. Fraternities usu- ally have for their objects the literary and social advancement of their members. In- Stead of combining them, Princeton makes each a separate part of the college life. The two halls, Whig and Clio, certainly furnish the literary training, while to his club a man.looks for the social side of his college life. © Origin of the Clubs. ‘Bhe clubs are all of comparatively recent origin, none being over twenty years old. The social element in their make-up has developed more or less with their exist- ence, as they were primarily organized as eating clubs. College students are eaters “from away back,” and the Princetonian doesn’t differ from others of the species. ‘They want plenty of it, good, on time and well cooked. The average college boarding - house keeper is equally voracious, but in a different way. She isn’t going to pay fit- | teen cents a pound for good steak when she can serve the genuine, three-ply, woven- wire article at six cents. The students here decided long ago to obviate this difficulty and organized clubs, in which things are run on a co-operative basis and a man gets somewhere near what he pays for. The freshman and sophomore clubs are only temporary organizations without any club ho: constitution or by- laws to speak of, and are still nothing more than eating clubs. When, however, a man becomes a jolly junior he is eligible for membership in one of the larger per- The Ivy Club. manent organizations. There are seven in number. The Ivy Club is the oldest, fol- lowed by the Cottage Club, Tiger Inn, Cap and Gown, Colonial, Princeton, Elm and Cannon clubs. Each of them has its own house, which, in the case of the first four named, is a very handsome and well-appointed struc- ture. Each house contains a dining room, billiard and smoking rooms, library and writing rooms, and in some instances a special dining room and sleeping apart- for the graduate members of the Fifteen juniors are chosen each year, so that the average membership in a club at any one time Is thirty, fifteen juniors and fifteen seniors. Centers of Student Life. These clubs are really the center of Princeton student life, and one cannot see the spirit which pervades them without ad- miration. They are organized in the first place on the principle that a man does not thoroughly know his own classmates until his junior year, and a man is not asked to join a club until he has been here two years, and both knows and is known by the men with whom he cares to associate. All the members take their meals at the club house, and if there is anything that Will bring out all congeniality in a man it is to sit across the table from him three Umes a day. Visit one of.the clubs after supper to get ®n idea of the life. Breakfast and dinner are soon finished, and the men hustle off to chapel, recitations, foot ball Practice, or something. But go after supper on an or- dinary day, not on a day when somebody's father goes too, and all the boys sit around in attempted Imitation of the model stu- dent, nor on a day when everybody's best girl is attending a tea or some other social function at the club, and all that can be heard is the swish of fans and dresses, and @ prattle sometimes called conversation on such occasions—but go down on an ordi- mory day. . Supper is finished, and the boys seek dif- ferent parts of the house. Some try a game of billiards,-others go to the reading room and surround themselves with a large armchair or sprawl! out on a window seat, behind the folds of a comic weekly or mag- azine, others still gather round the large fireplace with their feet distributed every- where fromthe floor to the mantelpiece, puff their pipes and discuss things. Here in front of the fireplace is where all the rea- scns are enumerated why this professor is “gead square,” and why that one should forfeit his claim on existence, why Prince- ton lost the last. Thanksgiving day game, and why she cart lose this year—in short, all those momentous questions which cause the careworn undergraduate to regret hi: lot, are all settled in front of the fireplace. The Thought of Duty. But they are settled in good time. The man who in the midst of telling some heroic adventure with a summer girl re- members that he has an “exam.” at 10 the next morning, gets up, whacks out his pipe against the side of the fireplace and starts for his room. One by one the others leave until finally the house is deserted. But the next night, and every night during the long fall and winter the logs will crackle, the pipes will be smoked, the feet will scratch the woodwork, and post-prandial discus- sions be continued. In the spring another characteristic bit of Princeton life shows itself. The evenings are warm and it is Nght long after supper. Nobody wants to stay in the house, so everybody gathers on the campus in front of “Old Nassau.” In accordance with tra- dition, the seniors sit on the steps of the old hall and sing, while everybody else stretches out on the grass, gathering here and there into small groups. The senlors sing with a feeling, aroused by the thought What in a few weeks they must leave the old college, and the under-classmen look on with envious eyes and long for the Gay when they can sit on the steps. Such 1s the everyday life at Prince:on. Let no reader think that the students spend all their time in front of the fire- Place and under the elms. The proverbial “midnight ofl also plays its part in Princeton life, but it’s the accompanying incidents which give to the college its de- servedereputation as the home of good fel- lowship and unconventionallty. pees DOOLEY ON THE VANDERBILTS. A Simple and Unaffected Chat on the Wedding. From the Chicago Times-Herald. “Well, bad scran to these Vanderbilts, annyhot exclaimed Mr. Dooley. “I can’t pick up a pa-aper annywhere but it’s th’ Vanderbilts here an’ th’ Vanderbilts there, an’ th’ Vanderbilts this an’ that, till I've wore out mea right eye thryin’ to find whether Tommy White has got on his fight with th’ nigger man 'r not. Th’ pa-apers is run down turrible, Jawn.” “And what have the Vanderbilts been doing?” Mr. McKenna asked. “Marrying and giving in divorce?” “That's what,” said Mr. Dooley. “Ye see, whin th’ Vanderbilt man got himself un- hooked be raison iv Fis bein’ too discrim- inate in his affections th’ Vanderbilt young people that up to this time had not thought iv th’ blessed marital state—fr’'m which may th’ Lord con-tinue to deliver us, Jawn —secin’ that it was a thing that cud be dissolved as aisy as a thrunk-line pool, begun to have an inthrest in it, ye mind. Ivry day th’ good man that has their par- ish has been cajled up be th’ goold-mount- ed telephone. ‘Hurry up, there, an’ get ye're implements r-ready.” ‘What's th’ matther?’ ‘Wan iv th’ family’s down with mathrimenyal fever an’ has got to be mar- rid at wanst.’ Thin th’ good man’d lam off in his buggy. Th’ ceremonyals is simple but imprissive. First comes th’ bride an’ th’ lad; thin Vanderbilt havin’ an apoplec- tic sthroke iv’ry third pew to th’ music iv Cal Wagner's ‘Weddin’ Marc! thin th’ rayporters; thin th’ polis, afther th’ ray- porters; thin th’ man with th’ phonograph fr th’ bride an’ th’ kid to kiss into; thin Bill Whitney with a magnificent house an’ wan thousand acres tv land; thin th’ guests, richly but simply dhressed in clothes, some iv th’ wealthiest wearin’ goold dimmycrats in their buttonholes. “Th’ prisints to th’ bride 1s simple but ex- pensive. Vanderbilt gives thim away an’ a pickle castor. Harry Le Grand Cannon gives thim a Turkish set in dimons as big as a cuk stove. T. Duluth Hadley gives thim a ple plate set in emeralds that cost twenty-wan million dollars. Rufus Rooty- toot gives thim Hlivin’ thousan’ pairs iv socks, warranted fast dye. Thin Bill Whit- rey gives thim a magnificent house an’ wan thousan’ acres iv fine land. “Th’ ceremony is short but expensive, an’ as ol’ Vanderbilt goes fitting out to the chune iv ‘We'll all have apuplexy in th’ mornin’’ to attind another marredge an’ | see that a wurrd is said about it in th’ pa- pers, th’ rayporters examine th’ bride- exons suspenders an’ are searched be th’ polis. in th’ glad but costly party reaches drive they’se a line iv modest but @ inyit hacks in th’ street, an’ into these th’ small but wealthy couple is hist- ed. But befure they’re dhriv away be th’ simple but luxurious hackman Bill Whit- ney comes out an’ prisints thim with a magnificent house an’ wan thousan’ acres iv land, which he'd intinded f'r a surprise, but, bein’ a man given to walkin’ in his sleep, had tipped off to a rayporter he met in a lunch house in Park row. “Well, th’ couple is dhriv off bechune a row iv simply but expensively clad ray- porters to th’ humble but sumptuous steamboat belongin’ to th’ fam'ly an’ con- veyed to th’ diffident but princely home fv th’ Tam"ty near where th’ small but ornate divorces iv th’ fam'ly are cellybrated—th’ fam’'ly disunion, as it were. On th’ front stoop they’re met be Bill Whitney, who presents thim with a magnificint house an’ yan thousan’ acres iv land. An’ thus, as Hinnissy says, another small but haughty couple are lunched upon th’ modest but comfortable sea iv life. “A gr-great people, th’ Vanderbilts, a great people.

If they've got annything sthrictly personal to do they do it at th home plate, an’ ’tis on’y a mat- ther iv time whin they'll be marrid an’ di- vorced on a thrapeze in tights. “I like their style, Jawn, an’ I like th’ newspapers givin’ thim th’ fullest attintion.

Easy come, easy go. We're as well off as they are at their poor but one- hundred-million-dollar home—what’s its name?” ““Th’ Breakers,’ ” said Mr. Dooley. “An’ considhrin’ th’ history iv some iv th’ par ties at inthrest, as Dorgan th’ | rd say, th’ name was a sthroke iv jantu: —__+e-+-___ Its Best Feature.

INE OF WASHINGTON’ SWEET SNGERS BENG RESTORED TO HEATH Dr.Shade’s Chloridum Discovery for Consumption Producing More Cures. ‘Very toany persons go the rounds in the medical fraternity with their throat or lung trouble before they are persuaded that the best thing for them to do is to consult Dr. Shade, 1232 14th street, who has beyoud question cured more complicated lung and throat trouble than all the physicians in the country combined. If you are skeptical go ask Dr. McKim, 25 5th st. s.¢., what he thinks of Dr. Shade’s treatment, or Dr. Patterson, 52 B st. n.e. Both of these gentlemen are experienced in the general practice for many years, Dr. McKim has been practicing medicine in the District of Colum- bia over forty years, He belongs to the medical arsociation, and has for many years. He is surely reliable and trustworthy, a8 the medical society will not tolerate unworthy or unreliable member- ship. Miss Lillian Huypt, 110¢ 13th st. nw., is the vocalist we refer to. Miss Hunt is well known by the music-loving public on account of ber vocal talent, catering to the cultivated ear of Washington mosicians. Miss Hunt had—in a measure—gone the rounds among the doctors with but Mttle if any benefit. Miss Hunt bas been taking Dr. Shade's treatment for six mouths for throat and brouchial trouble, and is now able at this time to resume her musical studies again. Prof. Bischoff says that Miss Hunt's yolce has improved very much, becoming more mellow and Ticher since under Dr. Shade's treatment. Miss Hunt scarcely, if ever, 1s troubled with the very severe coigh that annoyed her for several years, Miss Hunt is willing to be interviewed for the denefit of those who are suffering as she did. Call or write for booklet and symptom blank for those desiring home treatment. Consultation free Mon- day, Wednesday and Friday. The Supreme Court on Toothache. From the New York Evening Post. The dignity of the supreme court of North Carolina may heve suffered in its manner of rendering a recent decision, but the departure from the stilted and involved phraseology of the court reports has a breezy novelty about it that will win it welcome. That feature of the decision is of more interest than its subject matter. It was in denial of the right of a dentist to give a prescription for the sale of whisky on Surday, and reads in pert as follow! “If dentists came within the term ‘physt- cian,’ as used in code, section 1117, ‘tooth- ache’ would become alarmingly more prev- aleat than ‘stake bite,’ and that it would, with usage, become more dangerous, is evident from the fact that the very first dental surgeon’s prescription for tooth- ache coming before us is for ‘one pint of whisky.’ The size of the tooth is not giv- en, nor whether it was a molar, incisor, eyetooth or wisdom tooth, and yet there are thirty-two teeth in a full set, each of which might ache on Sunday. The duties of a dentist are Itmited to the ‘manual or mechanical operations’ on the teeth. Whenever the use of Hquor is necessary, it being a remedy to act on the body, and only indirectly in case for the teeth, with- in the purview of the statute, it must be prescribed by a ‘physician,’ to authorize oa sale or. Sunday.” - + oo ____. Hand-Made Linen, From the New York Ledger. There is probably no fine linen made nowadays, but there is tn one of the in- terior districts of Ireland an old woman who prepares the flax, spins and weaves for some large establishment a very heavy grade of linen that is used mainly for decorative purposes. It is one of the most available of all fabrics for this pur- pose, and the maker is kept busy all the year round with orders for her beautiful mater.al. Much of the present day linen is mixed with cotton, which is the reason for its lack of durabiilty. The finest Sea Island cotton is carded and spun with lin- en in such a way that it becomes a part and parcel of the fiber and cannot be de- tected by ordinary tests in the hands of amateurs. ——___+ e+ ___ Definitions.
