...idea is actually being realized, we shall soon see in our midst another improvement to the university. For, although when the plan of building a Divinity library was first broached, it was argued in opposition to the scheme, that the books of the divinity school might be placed in Gore Hall to far better advantage. When we consider the need of a law school library, the need of a separate library for the divinity school becomes evident. Books upon special topics are always more easily consulted when arranged with special adaptation to special work. And as we are given...
...evidently drunk." Mr. Crewman who reads this delicate censure upon his pet ideas, starts off with blood in his eyes and an Indian club to interview Freshworthy, while Freshworthy with his double-barreled shot-gun is looking up another man. Three-fourths of the section are seeking gore, and the instructor has fled for parts unknown.

The income for the departments dependent upon the college proper was $268,260.76; expenses, $266,307,33. The Divinity School also has a surplus, $271. - 17; but the Law School...
...university, published an appeal for money to support the American School at Athens. For years we have heard from all sides in answer to our re-current plea for various improvements in the college buildings, the cry of "no money." And "no money" it will doubtless be, until Gore Hall falls a mass of ruins upon the spot which it has failed to enlighten. We feel some-what like the friends of our religious home missions when told of the success of their brethren of the foreign missions. Yet when the abuses at present existing in the college, simply...
