The read ing; of a paper on "The Quit Kent Gabriel John- THE University 'Magazine. Published by the Dialectic and Philanthropic Literary Societies of the University of North Carolina. Johnston Blakely" by Mr. H. M. London. The early life of this dis tinguished Carolinian was briefly sketched and a good delineation was given of the character of the vouth who was logo down in history as one of our greatest naval heroes. The naval career of Capt. Blakely was recited at length, and a list of his many prizes captured and con flicts won were likewise enumerated. The sad fate of this gfaliant Captain and his crew in going down at sea during- an engagement with the en emy in the very moment of victory, was also described. The paper as a whole went to show that on account of his many and glorious victories and skill and gallantry as a com mander, Blakely should be ranked with such men as Bainbridge, Por ter, Hull and Decatur, the naval heroes of the war of 1812. Mr. M. Bellamy, Jr., presented the next paper before the Society on "The Life of Cornelius Har nett. The first time we hear of Harnett's entering- public life, Mr. Bellamy said, was as a represnta tive in the General Assembly from the old borough of Wilmington. The prominent part taken by Har nett, from the very first, in resist ing the oppressions of Great Brit ian, which resulted in his being chosen Pres. of the Council of Safety at Wilmington in 1777, was clearly pointed out. He was shown to have done much towards gaining the independence of the colonies whose freedom he saw only after he him self was confined in captive chains. He was shown to have been a man of marked ability both as a writer and as a thinker, and in private con duct to have been honorable in every way. A paper on "The Connections of James Madison with the Constitu tion" was read by Mr. C.C.Brown. This paper brought to light the great part Mr. Madison took in framing the present Federal Con stitution. It was shown that the labor expended by him in construct ing the Virginia Constitution was but laying the foundation to the Constitution of the United States to be framed later by the Federal Con vention at Philadelphia. It was further shown that among other things advocated by Madison before this convention were the encourage ment, of science and art by copy rights and patents, that congress should not have the power to tax exports and that the constitution should provide for both Supreme and Inferior tribunals of justice who should hold their office during good behavior. Mr. H. M. Wagstaff read the last paper of the evening on "Col. Wm. Lenoir at the Battle of King's Mountain." A graphic description was given of this noted fight and of the part Col. Lenoir took in beating back Ferguson and his To ry band. It was shown that Col. Lenoir was the first to spring to the ston s Administration was poned until another meeting. post A Communication. It seems it is the present, inten tionof the Dramatic Club to give us this Spring "Evening Dress as a curtain raiser and "Lend Me Five Shillings.' We do not know anything about the latter play but having- seen the former several times we are well able to give our opinion of it. Knowing that the Dramatic Club has the interest of the University at. heart and a g-ood club is as much an advertising medium as a good foot bailor base ball team, it is our pur pose to let the Club know how this play took at the several tow ns they gave entertainments, while on their Christmas trip. This is not hear say evidence as the writer was pres ent at two of the entertainments and heard various remarks. It would not be very encouraging to the Club to report remarks made about the "Evening Dress'', but the substance was that 'it would do for small town Prep, school.' So far as the acting was concern ed, it was good, some doing very- well, but as there were no particu lar stars and as the play itself did not come up to the expectation of the audience the entertainment met with rather severe criticism. The Dramatic Club represents the best dramatic talent in college and is capable of giving a first class play. The students expect it, and to carry a poor play throughout the State under the name of the Uni versity Dramatic Club does the University no good. It is not too late to reconsider this matter and if "Lend Me Five Shillings" is not long, enough for au eveniniug-'s entertainment, drop it at once and take a play that will not only renect credit upon mem bers of the Club but upon the Uni versity as well. Student. University Preacher. Rev. Howard E. Rondthaler. Das tor of Christ (Moravian) church at Salem, will arrive on the Hill Sat urday as the next University preach er.

He will conduct the services at the Presbyterian church Sunday morn ing and at night will preach to the whole student body in the college chapel. This distinguished divine will be with us from the fourth to the eleventh inst. . Mr. W. E. Cox, '99, went to Ral eigh last week in the interest of the University Magazine. Mr. W. S.

Zoology teaches that the hairs of the head are hollow, and contain an oil that gives them life. In clipping the hair with scis sors, this hollow is left open, and the hair loses its life-giving properties. I have a Machine named the Singeing; Ma chins, which removes the hair and at the same time closes up the hollow, causing the hair to retain its life-giving properties, and therefore stopping the hair from falling out or dying, and giving it a soft growth. Call and examine this machine and have your hair singed. Special attention given to dressing La dies' hair. Cutting done with exquisite and srtistis skill by the old University Harber of twenty years' experience. The singing machine is highly recom mended by scientists throughout the country.
