The Dickens prize, ‘•Martin Chuzzlewit,” will go to Glencoe this week,
but the winner desires his or her nam e not to be mentioned. No one cor

hews notes were best. Charles Dix on, of Forest Grove, received the two
volumes of “ Dombey & Son” the prev ious week. The books would cost
about $2.50

Commencement week at Pacific Uni
versity was cold and gloomy, clouded
too by the Heppner disaster, so that
the usual number of out-of-town visit
ors were not present. Friday evening
extempore speeches were the attrae
teti. and some very creditable ad
dresses were the result. Saturday
evening the Conservatory of Music
had Its closing; Sunday morning Rev.
W. C. Kanter, D. D., Salem, preached
one of the best and most helpful bac
calaureate sermons ever delivered be
fore a P. U. graduating class, and In
the evening Attorney E. C. Bronaugh,
of Portland, spoke before the College
Christian Associations on "T h e Lead
ership of College Men.”
Monday evening ex-Judgo H. H
Northrup, of Portland, a member of
the board of trustees, lectured under
the auspices of the literary societies.
Tuesday morning was the great day
when the exercises by the large grad
uatlng class of Tualatin Academy oc
curred, dividing with college gradua
tion the great Interest o f the week. In
the evening four of the eight surviving
members of the class of ten which
graduated a quarter of a century ago
conducted the Alumni Association ex
erclse8.
Wednesday morning came
college commencement proper, with
the conferring of degrees, the corpora
tion dinner, at which Dean Ferrin was
toastmaster, and in the evening the
usual closing concert o f unused exce.
lence, followed by an innovation in
the way of a commencement ball given
by three enterprising members of the
graduating class.
Such were the events of a busy
week, whose details followed out the
announcements
made

everything passing off according to
