Among the articles were ovcrshirts, men's hose, underdo! hiiiir and a pair of engineer's overalls. Some ol the articles bore M" Krlstow's prl vat cost marks.

C. E. Jones was In Eugene during oveiiilier or last year, reirlsterinu at the Minnesota hotel eu the Hlh of that month and remaining there until the 20th. Two men rcKlstcrlng as F. M. Mallett and S. C. C. Webb were also nt the Minnesota hotel about that time, These parties all left town owing more or less eu hotel bills. It Is now lie- lieved by tne officer here that Janney and Sullivan, who are now In Jail at I'orllaini, are tne same men who were here under the names of llasleti and Webb. It Is likely this Is true, for during tlie period between Nov, 8 and Nov. 20, Hll-tho time that Jones, Hallet and Wubb were In Eu-geiie-a uumlier of petty burglaries were committed In this city, and sluee that time none have been com milted. These men doubtless belong to au organized party and are the ones who commuted tne rouneries at mis place as well as at other points throughout tlie valley. AN OVATION.

As the train pulled into tlie depot Father (.'lark was greeted with the song, "Sunshine in the Soul," sung by hun dreds of fresh voices.

A brief account of the last i i- liienisinent w ill Is of Interest. There were 112 graduates, an lucreaseof .11 per cunt over lied year. The exercises were held in the gymnasium w hleh Is a very shabby place for sj gn at an oc casion. It was packed to (lie doors. There weie no students on the plat form, only professors, reeenls and oth er dignitaries. President Kcllocn wore his iwu and cap. Hie gradual ing class sat In a body at ore side. There were lour speakeis. The sub jects rnluht he considered dry by an Eugeno audience. Tbey were treated as it seemed lo mo without any special reference to the audience. As address cs I should say they were heavy and nell'i-etive. As essays or review arti cles I hey w ere able aud scholarly. The follow in ir are the sulieels of (hose w ho spoke: "The Value of l.ils-ral Science," "Is the Method of Jurisprudence Ex clusively Scientific," I'iK-ni, "Misan tluopas" nml "l-'alllo in the Moral Consciousness." The poem was very good, delivered fairly well, though mil perfectly committed. The speaker held thu roll of manuscript In his hand. Both of tho other y oiing gen tlemen placed the manuscript ou tho desk beloro them and referred to it fre quently. Neither of tin hi showed any oratorical training. Ouo of (hcin paused palniully between sentences. 1'lte other was some! lines in lislinct in ulteranco aud varied bis delivery only by thrusting his hand into his pocket up to his elbow. It was very uvidenl mat in inis scuooi no particular alien lion Is paid to public address. On the contrary you would say grace of speech was held in contempt. Al Ivast luilir ing by this commencement oratory Is uot at a promium lu c. c. The medalist of tho class was a young lady. She declined tho medal with thanks. Her essay was the best fiveu. It seemed to Interest imrticu arly the veuerablo and celebralod Prof. LeConto. It was suhl to be di ametrically opposed to the teachings of this most Illustrious of the Univer sity's teachers.

I he University is one ol the great Institutions of the country, and is if row Ing rapidly.
