H ow could it be otherwise ? the prominently T he reception was a success, in cluding labeled trunk belonging to one of ihe young men and reposing comfortably within the corridors of the W o m e n 's Build ing. T he banquet was a success in material ways and in the both the comradery, joy and color of which really is the soul of a feast. T he music was a success,—a lilting, singing, humming locomotive suc cess. And the toasts! From the coy and charming welcome of Miss Pratt to the roystering fun and heart-touch ing sermon of O'Gara they were, one and all, on the highest pi ine of aft- r-dinner oratory. T he walk in the moonlight to the its be armory was a success, from ginning at the heap of furni'ure ready to be moved into the W o m e n 's Building for the accommodaion of one of the gentlemen of he class, to its close at the bower of beauty into which the grim old abode of the god of war had been turned. F or the armory was a j y forever. It never was so b.autifol before. T he evergreens that interlaced the girders made a ceiling of fairy-like charm. T he booths in the corners made cozy corners for a minute's rest between dances which were especially appreciated bv the fellows wh > had not " h o me seen g i r l s" for weeks or months. T he sherbets pastry served by the mahogany nutler were just the touch needed to make the rest perfect. toothsome their and T he music was a success. A better orchestra never peale I forth airy strains for the movement of fairy feet—some of them ! T he un conventional nature of many of the selections and the frequ-nt vocal accompaniment added a tang that to echo for many a will continue month in the memory. T he hour of reaching the end was a success; for we didn't go home till morning. A nd the efforts of rooms," our friends, in " stacking was not a whit less successful than was the hop looked at as a whole. Y e s, it was all a success ! H ow could it be otherwise ? HORT. CLUB.

At the this stage of the game F a r m e rs woke up considerably, and for the first five or six minutes had the Detroiters on the run. But they settled down and maintained tl eir lead all through the pame, slight although the forward work of Krehl and Vondett kept them busy. through B.

M a r k s, a freshman mechanic of St. Saturday Louis, which occurred morning. H is death was due to pneumonia with which he was stricken last Sunday. M r. M a r ks was not seriously ill until T h u r s d ay when he was taken so much worse that his parents were sent for, al though even then there were strong hopes of his recovery. But the dis ease had taken such a hold on him that he was unable to withstand it and his young life passed away at 11 o'clock Saturday morning. T he body accompanied by the grief stricken parents and two boy hood friends, M r. F. H a rt and E. Baldwin, was taken to St. Louis Saturday afternoon. This death is especially sad be cause of the suddenness and of the youth and bright prospects of the young man. T h o u gh M r. M a r ks had been in school but a short time, yet by his modest manner, studious nature and good moral character he had won many friends among his classmates and teachers. M r. M a r ks was a member of one of the Y. M. C. A. Bible classes, and took an interest in those things which tend for higher and better living. His classma es contributed a beau tiful woven carnation blanket as a token of sympathy and regard ; the members of the faculty also gave a beautiful floral decoration. This death is especially grievous to the parents as the voung man was an only c h i d, and the whole College unites the grief stricken parents their heartfelt Chris tian sympathy. in extending to SENIOR THESES.

F o x 's resignation as county superintend ent, Michigan Agricultural College, located at Lansing, Mich., had three court graduates house as county officials in the per sons of W. A. F o x, ' 9 1, as county supet intendent; J. W. Earle, '89, county auditor, and G. L. Foote, with '89, clerk of Noble circuit court. T h is extraordinary, but that is not all. County Treas '77, and Dr. F. W. urer Latta, Black, with this '96, coroner of county, also have been students of that Fred institution of learning. B. Moore, with '91, was retired as county surveyor J a n u a ry 1, is also in the list, being a graduate of the civil engineering course at M. A. C. there is an other institution of learning that cm show as many students occupying official positions in one county at the same time as Michigan Agricultural college especially when the officials are residents of another common wealth. This is a proud distinction. Another graduate, F . J. Niswander, '89, is deputy state auditor of W y oming, and has been occupying the position for several years. Another graduate, J. B. Cotton, 'S6, of Du- luth, Minn., has served in the sta'e legislature, and won distinction as an attorney. A nd best of all each of above, were Noble county boys.

M. C. A. bulidings." One could see how the hard headed men of business throughout the state were becoming interested in the work of the Y. M. C. A. T he banquet of the evening was the crowning event of the dav, and those three hundred men gathered there will not soon forget the inspi that ration derived, and it is certain the students of M. A. C. who had the privilege of attending this conven tion will be the better and were in terested in the Christian work of the College. A Bible study conference for col lege students was held on the day following where inspiration and in struction was given for furthering intensity of the effectiveness and Bible study. Messrs.

T he Union Literary Society gave their annual faculty program Satur day evening, F e b. 23.
