THE [DEAL COMPOSER.
Prof. Stanley's Lecture on Richardt
Wagner. at Unity Club Last
Evening.
A good sized audience listened to
a lecture at Unity club last evening
by :Prof. Stanley, on Richard Wag-
ner, the renowned artist of operatic
consposition.
At tisc lime of Wagner's birth,
fstay so, 1813, the opera needed re-
formsation, as it had become of such
a character thsat people sesverely crit-
cised it. Thsis great genius of sun-
sical art was horn to raise the then
osv standard of musical dranma, hut
for a hose Iis hopes were dashed.
His early productions~were not otf a
nature to become works of art.
However, he did not despair, but
carried out his ideas of a national-
ied drama, in which he saw a great
future. His prodisctions dazed his
contemporaries, who looked upon
Bleethoveo as the greatest of com-
posers, hut who realited from the
artistic skill of Wagner's acconm-
plishments that he was destined to
become a wonder of musical ideal.
He did for dramatic art what lBce-
thoven did for symphsony.
It was his idea that the otperaI
must be made something more thsan
amusement and lis whole attenition
was directed to bringing the dra-
nmatic art to a higher standard.
At the conclusion of Isis lecture
Prof. Stanley played a number of
selections from Wagner and ex.-
stained their relationship to nsature
and nsan's ronceptions of humanity.

pose of the union is to secure ntore
freuquent intercollegiate debates and
a regular and uniform program
for debates in the college de-
bating societies. tn addition to
the regular debating contests anmong
thse larger colleges and universities

the smaller institutions would hold
practice intercollegiate debates
whirls would greatly stimulate the
interest in debating and impirove thse
standard of speaking in thse col-
leges. The union would select
a set of questoins for all the
dtehating societies, and the North
Anserican Reviesv, the Arena and
Public Opinion have earls prom-
ised to give stpace every nmonths for
articles on the subjects chsosens, so
that there would be no lark of nma-
terial with wtichl to work. After
the league has -been focused as sug-
gested it might be enlarged to take
