'95 NOTES. 



The lecture "■Mojintaiti Climbing in Switzer- 

 land," yihich.via.s AeMv&r&di by H. A. Heydt. 

 L. L. B., on Wednesday, April 8th, was one of 

 the best attended lectures of the season. It 

 was handsomely illustrated by stereoptican 

 views; those of special interest to the audience 

 being, "Moonlight Courting," in two views, 

 and, "Spooks in a Graveyard," which included 

 a skeleton dance. One thing noticeable about 

 the audience was, the large number of ladies 

 present, who were undoubtedly attracted by the 

 report of Mr. Heydt's last lecture. 



Of our boys there were present Messrs. Diirr, 

 Gies, DroUinger and myself. 



On Wednesday evening, April 15th, the last 

 reception of the Alumni Association was held 

 in the Herbarium, the evening was enlivened 

 by a number of recitations and songs, which 

 were highly appreciated. 



Gies favored the guests with a few solos, ac- 

 companied by Walter on the piano. 



Our representatives were, Messrs. Bjorkwall, 

 Gies, Ferguson, Manville, Walter and myself.

'97 NOTES. 



On one dark and moonless night last month, 

 a heavy detachment of our class-men sallied 

 forth to Barnum's show, under command of 

 our President, the gallant Colonel McKellar of 

 South Carolina. To this gentlemen's expert 

 generalship, was due the light list of casualties. 



The boys had a good time and bad nearly 

 everything their own way. But they finally 

 received one damper in the fifth auricle. It 

 was after a particularly daring feat by one of 

 the performers, that we arose to our feet, and 

 gave vent to a mighty slogan. The band in- 

 stantly ceased playing, the cheeks of the audi- 

 ence blanched, and a panic was eminent, when 

 a small urchin saved the house by yelling: "Ah 

 dey ain't no Zulus, dems de Protectory mugs, 

 see." Confidence was restored, smiles rippled 

 once more o'er the faces of the assembled mul- 

 titude and the band played on. "We seen our 

 duty, and we done it" (we left). We had a 

 glorious time ! 



Your reporter took occasion to interview the 

 fair Miss Johanna, in order to see just what im- 

 pression we had made upon her and her col- 

 leagues in the menagerie. This was found to 

 be most favorable, the only dissention was the 

 hyena, and Miss Johanna said he was envious 

 because he had caught cold in the parade and 

 was unable to yell. 



Ah! but here I am going to let out one little 

 secret on the Colonel. 



Miss Johanna told me in a burst of extreme 

 confidence, that she was much smitten with 

 our gallant Colonel. In her own words: "Thot 

 gintlemen what youse call the Colonel, is a 

 bute. Mama! waudn't oi loike to elope wid him!" 

 Then she became silent and would speak no 

 more. 



Choice of Weapons?— W-e-1-1— let us make it 

 broadswords at twenty paces and corn-stimu- 

 lant on the side. 



Mr. "Wooly" was overheard to remark that 

 our friend Mr. Buchle has a strapping name, 

 and none hit him. 



Aeter diagnosing "Wild Wooly's" case we 

 find that he is suffering from intermittent rush- 

 es of "fair Gussie" to the heat. He will pull 

 through. 



R. F. NEOFFATT of the class of '97 has just 

 accepted a position at White's Pharmacy in 

 Long Island City.
