EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON:-The attention of the writer has been called several times to the in convenience of the hour assigned to English 7 and 8. These courses are not only adapted to special work in their subjects, but to men who give the greater part of their time to work in other departments. An acquaintance with English literature is certainly not incompatible with devotion to a specialty. As matters now stand, however, they conflict with important courses in Creek, Latin, Mathematics, Modern Languages, and other departments. The difficulty could, perhaps, be easily avoided if it were not that both...
...that the competition in expenditure of which so many well-meaning but weak minded American undergraduates are the victims, is practically unknown. A thousand dollars a year is the figure now generally given in estimation of the ordinary expense at a "crack" American college; and probably a considerable part of this is to be attributed to the general lavishness prevailing outside. The tone of American life is not simple, and comparing the general scale of living, inside and outside, now and twenty years ago, we doubt if the undergraduates have done more than keep up with the rest...

The newly appointed admiral received...
...having as beautiful a cover as magazine ever had. An American painter, Henry Roderick Newman, is the subject of the opening article, written by H. Buxton Forman. Another brilliantly illustrated article is a second paper on "The Gunnison Country," by Ernest Ingersoll. There are four portraits, illustrating the first part of "Retrospections of the American Stage," by John Bernard. There are two purely literary papers, one on "The Brownings," by Miss Kate M. Rowland, of Baltimore. The other literary paper, by J. Heard, is a singularly cogent argument to show "Why Women should Study Shakespeare." The poetry is not abundant...
