Herriek Jo As long as hope and ambition burn in the hearts of college students commencement day will be to the graduate a time of thrill- ing interest—na vivid and dramatic day dream around which will cluster the memory of many tender, romantic and somber fei- dents that will affect the after life for many years, Yesterday was commencement day at Bellevue colloge. It secmod as though the clements of earth and sky approved of the event, for the beautiful weather was all that could have been desired. Bellevue college, ns everybody acquainted with Omaha and its suburban institutions kunows, is beautifully situated on a very prominent hilltop about six miles south of the heart of the city in the interesting vil- lage of Belley The_institution 1s one of the departmonts of the University of Omaha and the closing event of the tenth annual commencement weck of the school was wit- nessed yesterday in the graduation of four young ladies and one young man. A large number of prominent ladies and gentlemen of Omaha witnessed the interesting pro- gram. In addition to the essays and ore tions of the graduates tiere was an able ad- dress by Dr. Herrick Johnson, D.D., of Chi- Cugo. tellectual Altitude, As the people who went down from Omaha climbed to the summit of the great hill upon which the college building stands, the opinion was expressed by one of the visitors that if the graduates had attained a position in the intellectual world corresponding in altitude with the location of the institution from which they were about to take their departure they had_indeed climbed well up the laader of scientific and classical attain- ments. The interior of the college building was neatly and appropriately decorated and the visitors were received with the utmost courtesy and politeness on the part of the student ushers. The chapel was filled to the doors with a very much interested audier On the platform sat Dr. Kerr, president of the col- lege; Dr. Herrick Johnson theological seminary, Chicagc M. Ware, Rev. Asa Leard, I son, Rev. J. M. Patterson, Dr. Milroy, Hon Warren Switzler and other visitors, The members of the graduating class formed the chiet group of interest to the visitors.

After a piano quartet by Misses G Bennett, May nes, Hanna Master W Kerr, which was exceptional well done, Dr. Kerr announced the first essuy on the program, “Form as an Element of Beauty,” by Miss Edna Mathew: The young lady read in a clear and well modulited voice and succeeded in holding the attention of the audience throughout. She pointed out the fact that form was a funda- mental element in beauty all through nature. Asan illustration of this fact she cited the graceful curves of the fohage, the drooping flower: and the symmerry of the sturdy oak. The writer “also called attention to the marvelous variety of form in which na- ture seems to take delight. Following the theme to higher conclusions the fair writer advanced the thought that man should imi- ate nature in all efforts to produce the beautiful. She held, with Ruskin, that there could be no progress in art excepting along natural lines. From the minute ecell of the vegetable world to the great, whirl- ing globe upon which we live there were lessons in the beauty of form that man should study and ponder over. From out tho book of nature's own great architect valuable secrets could be obtained and these, held, were within the reach of all who e inclined to look and learn. The essay pplauded and the reader was presented with several handsome fioral gifts at the conclusion. Mr. Gi. ¥. Willis sang “The Skipper” quite acceptably and Miss Amy Watts appeared nd read a paper on ‘“Vanity Fair,” that was truly admirable. The young lady is evidently a great admirer of Thackeray works, and the manner in which she handled the characters in “Vanity Fair showed that she had profited by a careful study of that interesting tale. Becky Sharp, George Osborne, Joseph Sedley, Amelia and other prominent characters of the novel were held up before the assembly and delineated. The usefulness of thut kind of story writing was dwelt upon, and the writer closed by ex- pressing her admiration for the author. “The paper was much enjoyed and happily re- ceived, Miss Althea Rhamey appeared and read an excellent paper on *The Ministey of Music,” The wri held that the ties of human af- feetion were made stronger by the effects of sweet strains of melody. Home became more sacred under the soothing and enchanting influence of sweet sounds. The courage and patriotism of the people of all nations was stimulated by the singing of national air: Music ns a Tonie. Music was a sort of tonic that everybody needed and instances were not wanting in which the rendition of soothing melody had assisted in curing the sick. She eited th tthat Martin Luther placed the music of sacred hymns next to the bible, *and who knows but that the first strains we shall hear when we enter the spirit world may be ‘Praisc God from whom all blessings flot.’ " The cssny was read in a very pleasing and entertaining manner and elicited very hearty race Crowell and red and played closing words of m,’h.mrr‘u.

Shepard of New York. The art department under the instruction of Mrs Sill scems to have made unusual progre during the past year. The display of oil and crayon work on the walls was very creditable to both pupils and instructor. Dr. Johnsa on Imagination At 3 o'clock Dr. Herrick Johnson of Chi- cago, delivered theannual address, taking for his subject “‘Imagination In Science and Religion.” The trond of the masterly effort was to show that imagination plays a lead- ing part in science as well as in religion and that a good ma scientists are ‘talking through their s' when they claim tnat they believe only such things as can be demonstrated, ““‘We are told by some so called scientists,” d the speaker, “that they want nothing but facts and that all of our imagination in the realn of religion is nothing but lunar politics. Shakespeare said that ‘tho lunatie, the lover and the poet were in imagination all compact.’ Well, that 1s pretty hard on the loverand the poet, but T suppose there is a grain or shadow of truth in the statement and this has probably induced modern think- «rs to condemn all that is imaginative in re- ligion. 1 have great admiration for facts, but Idonot believe in scornifg the open field of imagination neither do vhe scientis as I believe I shall be abundantly able to show." The speaker then proceeded, in his clever and philosophic w to show the scientific world has always been swayed, to a won- derful degree, by the purely imaginati Science has given out a great deal that was in reality nothing but guess work. ‘“Take the Aristotle theory of motion,” said the speaker, “which for centuries was taught by the scientific world. There came a time when the absurdity of the doctrine became painfully apparent and there is not tific man today crazy enough to even give the absurdity a passing thought. “When Capernicus finally came to the conclusion that this old absurd theory ought to be exploded, he hesitated for twenty years because he ew the entific world would denounce him for attacking or calling into question the theories of Aristotle. He was rightin his conjectures, for he was verely denounced and persecuted for dar- ing to deny the inherent ten'lency absurdit, Galileo was also persecuted for esponsing the cause of Capernicus, and right here I ant to call your attention to the fact that Galileo was persceuted by the svientific world long before the church began to perse- cute him.” Explosion of Modern Theories. Dr. Johnson then came down to more moderate times, showing how one theory after another, held by scientific men, had been exploded, and, Kow absurd it was for them to claim that, they would not believe anything but facts, while, at the same time, a vast amount of that which they do believe and teach is built upon imagination. The somewhat recent theory that nature abhored a vacuum, taught all over the scientific world as being a fact has been exploded. The theory of evolution lias been taugnt, and yet Huxley adntits that if it cannot be shown that live matter’can come from dead matter then the theory of evolution cannot nd. There is a great gulf between mat- ter having life in it and that which is dead, and the bridge over this gulf must be found, it is claimed or ,the theory of evolution will 80 to picces. The eminent spealrer touched upon the old theory of light and shéwved how, after being taught for conturics, that was given up for the wave theory. In ‘many different ways he showed thé absurd position assumed by men in pretending to spurn the 4 sistance of the -imagination. In closing he hele that there had been more absurd things given to science through the imagination than had ever been given to religion, but after all he claimed that the imagination had been a wonderful help to the scientific world and would continue to lead tho minds of men into experiments that would result in their finding the truth in the end. An Embarrassing Defay. At the close of the address Dr. Kerr de- livered to the graduates a few parting words of advice and said he would have prescnted the aiplomas but for the fact that the fithographer who had the contract to furnish them had not completed the work. Tho graduates were however, that they would get their diplomas in due course of time, and were given the parting blessing of the president. Dr. Kerr also announced that, of trustecs had conferred upon Greenleo of Hillsbore the board Dr. 1. B, gh, 1lI., the degree of Ph. D and a degree had been conferred upon Prof. . E. Grubbs of Walkofield, Neb. These weee nonresident students and the degrees conferred were not of the honorary nature, as the board 1 decided to con none of that kind this year. The university quartet sang a parting song and the commencement exercises were atan end. The foliowing prominent ladies and gentle- men were among the visitors from Omaha: Henry 1. Clark, Rev. S. M.
