END OF UNIVERSITY YEAR Thirty-Pirst Commenogment Day to Be Observed Today. CONDITION OF INSTITUTION AND ITS NEEDS Chancellor Andrews' Ad Alumni Co His V Recommendations for Future Betterment. ess to the ews a (From,a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, June 11.—(Special.)—Tomor- row will mark the end of the thirty school year of the University of Nebraska. The graduates will be given their diplomas, and then, with the exception of a few re- ceptions in the evening, the seniors will be free from all dutles in connection with the university. The demand for tickets to the commence- ment exercises tomorrow has been greater than usual, probably because Booker T. ‘Washington i to deliver the oration. The exercises will be held in the Auditorium and the indications are that it will be filled to its utmost. The alumni of the university had charge of all events incident to commencement to- @ay. In the morning J. Irving Manatt, ex- chancellor of the university, delivered the annual Phi Beta Kappa oration. After this camé the annual class dinners and reunions. Tonight Judge E. P. Holmes delivered the alumni address, his subject being, “The Tendency of Woman's Social Development.” the Report of Chancellor, Chancellor Andrews read to the alumni ¥l report on the condition and needs of the university, as follows: The university hag added nothing to its lands this year. The need for larger quarters here in the city will soon be pressing, though It is not sa at this mo- ment. A more immediate call for land is heard from the farm, where, large as the present cstate {s, ampler arcas are quired that agricultural teaching and ex- perimentagion m 0 on strongly. No bulldings, have been erected the last year except’ the new stock barn, at the farm. There is imperative necessity for two additional bulliings at the farm. Tt is nothing short of cruelty to require the Department of Physics to toll longer with- out any place wholly its own either for lecturing, for experimentation or for the proper storing of apparatus. The value of our physical apparatus, ably abundant and moch of it very c . 18 diminished several per cent each year Ly imperfect storage and the necessity for transporting’' pleces from place to place for use in teaching. No one of the engineering departments has sufficient premises. The shops are tog small “The Important De- rtment of Domestic Art and Sclence 's forpidden to enlarge for lack of space. The buildings have been kept in the best repair possible with the limited resources At the disposal of the university, but re- irs are badly needed which it is impossi- gle to effect at, present for lack of funds. Such_economy s vicfoasly ' costly. The friends of the state ought to insist that wasteful management of this sort be nenceforth -rendered unnecessary. There sught to be money to make efficient repal.s immediately in every case where the need of repairs arises. That |s what privats swners of first-class business plants al- ways do. Sound economy on behalf of th» state would.supply the regents with funds lo effect repalrs upon this preclous prop- srty as promptly and as completely as the Burlington road does upon its engines and T8, Spite of poverty something has been ac- somplisehd in improving the appearance 3f the university premises, The Athletic association has conferred a benediction by utting up a new grandstand and a new fence about the athletic field. In securing neatness on the campus acuity and stu- Jents have co-operated admirably. orce of the university has few changes. One alued professor -1°ft The teaching the last year suffere eminent dean and a us & year ago. I refer to Edgran and Brooks, who accepted eligible positions elsewhere at sajaries which we could not mateh. Several other ‘professors have re- celved calls to leave us at higher salaries, but have declined. The. work done hY the teaching force has been hard, faithful and efficlent. Itr members' have wrought in perfect harmony and eo-operation—one ~nf the most delightful features conpected w'th the gervice of the ‘university. Student Body Commended. The student body has been characterize: by almost universal zeal in work. Uni- versjty spirit has Improved. Few students have been 1l and, so far as I know, but Athletic and_debating’ suc- cesses are known fo all. The conduct of our students {s about all that could be desired. There have been a few cases of cheating in written work ,which, of course, acording to a university code of morals, 18 almost umg 2 donable sin. If thie vice does not abate gerater severity will have t be' exercised in dealing with it. It may even be necessary to treat it as absolutely unpardonable. When taxed with this fault students nearly always say it is common and not frowned on very seriously in the high schools where they prepared.’ This is unfortunate if true. Perhaps the question of its truth is worth investigating. Annoying thefts occyr at intervals in various = departments of the university. 8ome of the thieves are no doubt outsider: but not all. ‘Thief-students do not, 1 be- lieve, learn their vice here, but we ought to bé able to make them unlearn it here. Clear cases of such delinquency should be verely punished. Spite of all this the moral tone of our student body is h r"er than that at any other institution with which I have been connected. Of course, being a state uni- versity, supported by gene: tion, we cannot’ teach dogma or side with 'any scclesastical organization against any other. When people, however, allege that the university does nothing to Interests of religlon 1 always protest. All preachers, all evangel churchmen, such, even, furthest {n emphasizing rites. forms and ecclesiasticism, boastfull maintain that the very best means whic can be used to propagate religion is the {nfluence of moble and upright character. It would peshaps b invidious to compare the Influence of the faculty and students of our university in this regard with the corresponding influence exerted at other achools, but. cpuld such a comparison be made and made fairly, the result would, [ am_sure, convince ail that there is 'In exercise at this university a most powerful, an almost incomparable force for the ereation and diesemination of the best re. sults prayed for by all Christian, people. Why the F The number. of students connected with {he university has probably been somewhat less the last year than for a few years preceding. This falling off is referable in the main to four causes: First, the growth of private colleges in the state. Second, ABSOLUTE SECURITY. Genuine Carter’s Little Liver Pills. Must Bear Signature of one has died. first | the fees which the university has had to impose on all students owing to the too small amount recelved the last time from the state. Third, the tuition which, parti for the same reason, it was thought weil to require from non-resident students. Fourth, the main cause, I belleve, the advance in the cost of living this year over that of previous years. | suppose that the mos! conomical student in the uni- versity been obliged to lay out for living expenses at the very least from $25 to $0 more the last year than was necessary the year preceding. These eauses it will be observed are likely to continue. It will be necessary therefore, if the university shall in num- bers as well as In the quality of its work keep up the pace it has set, for its friends by thelr exeftions to counteract and over- come these adverse causes named, to set in exercise, that is, other forces stronger than these which threaten to check our growth. 1t is probably known to all present that recently the regents have, partly through afiliation with the Omaha Medical college, established in the university a college of medicine. The first two of the four years of instruction will be given in Lincoln and the last two taken up with more technical study, clinical work, and sv on, in Omaha This s considered a very important new step. 1t cannot fail of telling results, chiet among which will be elevation In the qual- ity of medical and surgical knowledge and ractice throughout the Missourl valley. ‘he college of medicine will pay all its own expenses, like the law college at pres- ‘ent, not being in any sense a burden upon the’ university chest It may be possible in the course of a few years to erect a college of engineering on a similar basis, amxing certain fees to the excellent Instruction given In that de- partment, so that the university treasury may be richer by the Sums nNow necessary to keep up sach teaching. This, it seems to me, would be only just, inasmuch as no students are surer than those schooled in engineering of lucrative employment on leaving the university. To the work now doing in domestic science there should be added as soon. as possible corresponding work in_domestic art, Ampie courses in commercial éco- nomics, geography and methods should be institute year or two of hard and first-class work in architecture should be oftered and the courses which the Greek department, straining its resources, is at present offering in the history and ofiticism of fine arts should be erected into an inde- pendent professorship. The excellent course in forestry already arranged should be pro- mulgated at once and strongly carried through. Alumni I am saying these things to the alumni of the university because the advancement pointed out can never be achieved save by your help. You can ald In a variety of ways. You can direct to your aima mater ‘many_ young people Who desire o higher education In some of its forms. More particularly those of you who teachers can inspire in the breasts of youth a desire for higher education and then turn their footsteps this way. All of you can do something to inform the public and especially members of the legislature, touching the value of the work the uni- versity ls doing and its need of larger re- sources that it may compass a still vaster work of good. Lastly, you can make it clear that the funds the state bestows on 1 university are not of the nature of rity, but Invested and invested in the t possible gilt-edged security, ylelding two sets of priceless dividends, one estimable In terms of dollars and cents and consisting in an increased valuation-of the state's estate, real and personal, and one too precious to be told in any language of money, consisting in bettered cjvilization and ihe higher life of mind. Not even the most enthusiastic alumnus on the grounds duly prizes the university We need to exalt it more in our (hnu‘?l and compel the public to do so. Plan for Can Help. it and lead others to plan for it, not in & petty or niggardly way, bat coplously, immensely, stupendously, ‘as the centrai glory of our commonwealth. Our state is no longer poor; it 18 rich and rapldly be- coming opulent. There is less danger of our having too little than of our letting abundance minister to what is low, bufld- ing houses costly but of mud instead ot mansions imperishable. 1 of course do not maintain that the university is the sole source of good direction in_ strong and noble social construction, but I do say that it is a main and a matchiess source, worthy of the most devoted and liberal mainte- nance.

A.plece m:nhuum“*?“. -| tering along HOW T0 GET MANDAMUS WRIT Bupreme Oourt Rules on Point as to Time for Application. RELATOR WMUST SHOW CLEAR RIGHT Question Brought Up in Commection with Case from Lancaster County and Decided Against the Applieant. (From a Staft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, June 11.—(Special.)—The su- preme court has delivered an opinion In which it is held that, although delay In applying for a writ of mandamus is not an abeolute bar, it may be sufficlent, in the discretion of the court, for denying the writ. The question was brought to the attention of the court by Christopher G. Reiss, who was plaintiff in the district court in an action of replevin. Judgment having been entered for the defendant, and & motion for a new trial having been de- nied, Relss served a proposed bill of ex- ceptions upon the defendant's counsel on the last but one of the eighty days allowed by the court for that purpose. The coun- sel objected to the allowance of the bill and declined to accept service. Afterward, and some time after the expiration of the period fixed by law, the bill was presented to the trial judge, who refused to settle it, asserting In his order that “it was not pre- sented with 100 days from the last day of the term of court at which mation for new trial was overruled.” The proposed bill, together with the order, presented In the supreme court and allowed to remain for over a year, and until stricken from the record, for want of allowance in the trial court. The court holds that the relator in man- damus proceedings to compel settlement of a blll of exceptions must show a clear right to have his proposed bill allowed. Hence, where the trial judge, upon hear- ing evidence, has found that delay in not presenting the bill in the time fixed by the law was due to laches and neglect of relator, the latter will be held to very clear prof that such finding was erroneous and that he is entitled to have the bill al- lowed notwithstanding. In a case entitled Weflage against Ab- bott, appealed from the district court of Douglas county, the supreme court de- clares that clscontinuance of a pending cause and agreement not to prosecute any further claim are sufficlent consideration for a promise to pay accrued costs and at- torneys' fees It held that in such case the agreement to pay attorneys’ fees is an original and independent contract and is not within the statute of frauds as being a promise to answer for the debt of another. Clancey in a Hurry. People at the statehouse are watching with interest the contest between the two delegation tickets in the Fifth ward of Omaha. One of these, advertised as being “anti-machine,” and in favor of the nom- ination of Van Dusen, is headed by Robert J. Clancey, private secretary to Governor Savage. Mr. Clancey has planned for a vigorous campalgn in this ward and ex- pects to get stance from ome or two men who hold positions under the jurisdic- tion of the governor. This afternoon Mr. Clancey was seen run- ning at a high rate of speed toward the Burlington depot, carrying a grip in one hand and waving a palm leat fan with the other. The terrific heat had no terror for Mr. Clancey, for he kept up his mad race clear to the platform of the train bound for Omaha. A man who was slowly saun- w Mr. Clancey running, and as the train was late, both being bound for the same destination, they met at the depot. “What occasions this intense excite- ment?" the man asked of Mr. Clancey. “Oh, just a little business in Omaha,” exclaimed the genlal private secretary, smiling broadly and gasping for breath. “You see, there's some politics up there— a fight, you know, over in the Fifth ward. I have to be there this afternoon.” And then Mr. Clancey indulged in a few uncomplimentary criticisms of the Lincoln street car service, for the car he had boarded at the hotel ran only halt way to the depot and then stopped.

ENGLISH GOVERNMENT STILL RESENTFUL Colonel Lynch Fights with Burghers, but He s Not to Be Allowed to Surrender with Them. the LONDON, June 11.—Colonel Arthur Lynch, who fought with the Boers in South Africa, and who, in November last, was elected to represent Galway in the Housa of Commons, was arrested this morning on his arrival at New Haven from Dieppe, France. Colonel Lynch, who was accom- panied by his wife, was brought to London and wae afterward taken to Bow street police station. Subsequently Colonel Lynch was ar- raigned at the Bow street police court on the charge of high treason and was re- manded until Saturday, June 14, after for- mal evidence of his arrest had been pre- sented. The prisoner, who was described on the charge sheet as a “journalist,” sat In the apparently unconcerned, umtil the maglstrate asked him if he had anything to say in reply to the charge. Then he arose and replied almost inaudibly, “No sir.” He did not apply for ball and was taken to the cells. The Irish nationalists in the House of Commons today questioned the ministers on the subject of the arrest of Colonel Lynch. They wanted to know why the colonel had not the same right to surren- der as other burghers. The government leader replied tersely. “He jJ¢ not a| burgher.” John Redmond, the Irish leader, and J. G. Swift MacNeil, nationalist, then turned to the secretary of state for home affairs, Mr. Ritchie, and asked him why he had not fulfilled his ministerial duty in inform- ing the house of Colonel Lynch's arrest on the charge of high treason. Mr. Ritchie denled that it was his duty to so inform the house, but when the Irish members appealed to the speaker the lat- ter upheld the nationalist contention that the usual practice was to Inform the House of Commons of such an incident through the speaker. Further questions were ruled out of order and the subject was dropped. Lieutenant Colonel John Phillip Nolan (nationalist) applied this afternoon for the release of Colonel Lynch on bail, but the magistrate said he had no power to grant the request.
