PROF QLEN'S address
One of the principal features of the
evening was the address by Prof Glen.
The speaker, In his usual felicitous
manner, began by correcting some
minor mistakes made previously
during the program, which be made
lead direotly to bis rather unique
subject, "The Bulls of ..Literature."
Much amusement waa furnished at the
expense of some who committed blun
ders. Not only In Ireland, but even in
England and America, Lave noted men
been prone to give out occasional ex
pressions whloh are more humorous
than serious. Prof Glen was one of
the first 22 who oiganlzed the Phllo-
loglan Boolety.
NKQ20 SUFFRAGE DISUD8SED
The debate was on the subject of
negro sunrage In the South. W L
Wnlttleey and Miss Bessie Hammond
had the affirmative of the question
maintaining that the right of voting
should be taken away from the negro.
M L Applegate with Mlsa Susie
Bannard were leaders on the negative.
The discussion waa carried through on
a high plane, the thoughts presented
and the oratory on both sides being to
the credit of the speakers. According
to the decision of the Judges, the
negative side won. These Joint de
bates are will calculated to Inspire
interest In this line of work, and a
plan Is on foot for arranging a eobedule
of such meetings of the different
societies throughout the year.
