...Good, the first speaker for Princeton, opened the debate. The principal contingency upon which this debate hinges, he said, is the case where the lives and property of citizens are in danger and federal aid is not sought although state aid is inadequate. The Chicago riot of 1894 is an illustration of such an emergency. A state of continued violence existed and the governor of Illinois would not apply for federal assistance. If Governor Altgeld in 1894 refused to call in federal aid when lives and property were being outraged to a degree quite beyond the control of the State...
Most, if not all of the actors spoke their lines clearly, and the delivery was so good that the nationality of the actors was forgotten. One or two, however, in the leading parts showed superiority from the start, although the work of the ensemble was of a higher standard than in the past, and showed great care in preparation. The mistakes in the second act and lack of smoothness in the presentation of the third act were due merely to the nervousness and novelty of a first performance. The play as a whole will undoubtedly go better tonight and during...

...University and class basketball teams now numbers about one hundred and twenty-five men, divided into the two main divisions of Upperclassmen and Freshmen, which meet Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays; and Tuesdays and Thursdays, respectively. Thus far no attempt has been made to put the men into permanent squads, although this will be done next week. Class squads will then be formed and captains elected who will coach the candidates for the interclass games to be held the week previous to the Christmas recess. The exact dates for these games have not yet been decided...
...many years geologists have thought that this region was composed of lacustrine strata, and it is only recently that a theory has been advanced against this view. Professor Davis made a trip to Wyoming last year, and procured enough evidence to warrant a consideration of these later views, although he made a very short examination of the valley. He found ample evidence of fluvial deposits and cross bedding which seem to point to the conclusion that the whole valley was once a shallow lake or flood plain, and not a deep permanent body of water...
