The first paper of the evening was by Dr. Ernest T. Bynum on the Culpepper Rebellion. Dr. Bynum in an able way showed how this rebellion was not simply a lawless insurrection. But an up rising, the leaders of which, Cul pepper and Gilliam, contended for a principle, namely that the Lords Proprietors were tyranical and that they only wished the Proprietary Government to be abolished and the direct, rule of the King to be reestab lished over Albemarle. Culpepper also contended, it was shown that the government which he rebelled against and over which Miller presided as Deputy-Governor was not a legal government and upon this he was afterwards acquit ted of treason and rebellion. A paper on "An Amusing Incident in College Life in 1814" by Dr. Battle concluded the program for the evening. In the whole the meet ing was thoroughly enjoyed by all present. Rev. S. E. Winecoff preached at Hillsboro Sunday. Mrs. Loula Donnell has been spending a few days with her moth er here. Mr. L. D. McPhail was called home Saturday by the sickness of his brother. Mr. W. S. Howard was on the Hill Saturday and Sunday. Lehigh has organized a Glee Club. Literary work has been made com pulsory in Illinois Western University, the students being compelled to do a certain amount of literary work, either in a literary society, or on the chapel stage. The Yale Glee and Banjo Club will take an Kaster trip from April 7th to 13th, giving concerts at Hygeia Hotel, Old Point Comfort, Washington, D. C, Scranton, Pa., and Wilkesbarre, Pa. Alabama Letter. University, P. O. Ala. Mar. 14, '98. The Tar Heel: During the past year, there have been many import ant changes made in the affairs of the University of Alabama. Last June, when the Board of Trustees held their regular meeting, Gen. Richard C. Jones resigned the presidency of the University, and Dr. James K. Powers was elected to fill this positiou. At the same time John Y. Graham, Ph. D., was elected to the newly made chair of Biology; George S. Wilkins, Ph D., to the chair of -Engineering; and William B. Saffoed, Ph. D., to the :chair of Greek. Judge William S. Thorington was elected Dean of the Law Department. The last Legislature appropria ted an additional $10,000 with which the chair of Biology and the Dean- ship of the Law Department were created. The time required to com plete the law course was changed from one years to two years. There have been some equally important changes made by the Faculty. The courses have been improved very much, and a great many more electives are now allowed. Each regular student is required to have eighteen hours a week in the lecture room. This is the 2nd year of ex-military for the Seniors. This plan is still working as well as could be wished We had no foot-ball team this year, owing to the fact that the Trustees will not. allow our team to travel,; and, as we get very little support in foot-ball from the people of Tuskaloosa, we did not think it advisable to go to the expense of putting a team in the field. We did not have our usual gymnasium exhibition, because the President would not excuse the candidates for the team from drill, and nothing could be done with half training. The base-ball team has riot yet commenced regular practice, but the tae Captain expects to begin imme diately after examinations. Al though we have lost several of last year's best players, and uotwith standing the fact we are nottotrav el and the men are not excused from drill, we expect to put out a good team. The manager has arranged for several games to be played on our campus. Work on a cinder track has been begun, and we hope to have it com pleted before very long. Our cam pus is a splendid place for a track, being perfectly level, the banking of the curves will be the only work in grading. There is some interest taken in tennis, although it is not very gen eral. The Literary Societies are in a very flourishing condition. At the recent inter-society debate, on the subject "Resolved that the United! States should annex Hawaii," the Philomathics, upholding the nega tive, won over the Erosophics. The Trustees have been very lib eral in their appropriations to the societies. At their last meeting they gave each of the societies $150 for the purpose of fixing up their halls. Wiliiam J. Bryan recently made a visit to the University while in Tuskaloosa. On leaving he gave the University $250 to be invested and the proceeds each year to be given as a prize to the student writ ing the best essay on "The Science of Government." Yours truly Crimson-White. Track Team Criticims. The team after its enforced "lay ing up" on account of the chillness of the weather has again .gotten down to work. The old ' 'standbys" have of course been out but the material of which we air know College is full has not. been forthcoming. And why not? That is a question for every man to answer. No man is incapacitated by size or build from track work. If you can't run, perhaps j'ou can throw the hammer, pole vault or something in that line, at any rate come out and find out. Osborne is improving right along and has a beautiful stride, hut runs too straight. Graham is faithful and speedy but lacking in stride. Miller , has shown wonderful im provement but does not keep his arms straight enough and gets to striding too soon. Follin is running very well but lacks stride and has a bad start. Hearn has a good stride and style but is a little slow. Hood, Hewitt, and Greenleaf step lively but lack a stride. Kornegay has been laid up but is keeping right up and has a good .stride. Whi ta ker is slow on the start, and al though he usually paces the "trot around," would do' a great deal more if he would increase his stride. McEachern is nowhere near up to his old style and has a very poor i Tri -AA.- . 11 l i striae, rviiutz sinues wen uui i? slow and runs too straight. Geo. Pond (Capt.) Dr. Hume at Concord, Dr. Thomas Hume lectured before the Christian Reid Book Club of Concord, N. C, last Friday eve ning, subject "The Round Table and the Grail." He was greeted by a cultured and appreciative au dience who listened with interest to his delightful discourse. I now have a complete set of neg atives of the University School Buildings. Any one wishing views an obtain them single or in sets at reasonable prices. Call early as ; will remain in Chapel Hill but a ev days longer. J. F. Miller.
