...recent trouble in the Columbia Law School, caused by the resignation of Warden Theodore W. Dwight and his associates, Professor Chase and Professor Petty, has resulted in the formation of a new school. Ever since his connection with the college, President Low has been trying to bring about a change in the present system of teaching.

It also leaves a large number of men in the midst of their studies with...
...third. Princeton is to establish a school of law and possibly one of medicine later on. President Patton and the trustees have long felt the need of a good man to put at the head of such an institution and now that Professor Theodore W.

We are glad, however, to learn from the Warden of Merton's speech that the promoters will not be content until they have won "complete academical equality" for women. [Pall Mall...
...should imagine that in the opinion of nine-tenths of the readers of his autobiography he takes first place among successful men of letters, looking to success from the pecuniary point of view, and considering the quality of the work. Trollope made L727, in the aggregate, by "The Warden" and " Barchester Towers," which, in the opinion of some of the best judges of our time, are by far his best works. He was paid L250 for "The Three Clerks," and L400 for "Dr. Thorne." He began to run into four figures with "Framley Parsonage," for which he received L1000...
