DEBATE TONIGHT.
Michigan Meets Pensejiania in
Unicersity Hail.
Tonight at 8 o'clock a Michigan
debating team will for the first time
meet a team from an Eastern uni-
versity. Great interest is being mani-
fested in the outcome, as upon it
critics will base their judgment as to
the relative merits of Eastern and
Western debate.
The question to be discussed is
based upon the Czar's peace proposal.
It is stated as follows:
"Resolved, That utder existing
conditions the total abolition by all
civilized nations of their armies and
navi.es, other than is necessary for
their domestic peace is feasible."
Michigan proposed the question,
and Pennsylvania selected the nega-
tive side.
The men who represent Michigan
are Martin Henry Carmody, Le Roy
Allen Wilson and Frank Dwight
Eaman, with William E. Rydalchi
alternate. The Pennsylvania team
consists of James Whitford Riddle,
Roland Sleetor Morris, William Har-
vey Allen, with Thomas Raebuin
White alternate.
The judges for the debate were
the final selection from a list of 12
prominent men 'in various parts of
of the country. Pennsylvania pro-
posed the 12 names, Michigan cut
the list in two, and the three judges
were the result of a final agreement.
The judges are William Hoyt and
Edward OMallery, of Buffalo, N.
Y., and Attorney-General Frank S.
Monnett, of Ohio.
Judge Griffiths, who was chosen
as one of the judges, has telegraphed
that he is unable to be here because
of sickness in his family, and
Attorney-General Frank S. Monnett
of Ohio has been secured in his
place. Chief Justice Claudius B.
Grant of the Supreme Court will
preside.
The Pennsylvania debaters arrived
yesterday afternoon. They are being
entertained by the Oratorical Asso-
ciation and will spend the day in
visiting the various departments of
the University. In the delegation
besides the debaters are Thomas Rae-
burn White, alternate, George E.
Nitzchle, secretary of the Pennsyl-
vania Debating Board, and Prof.
Simon N. Patten, also a member of
the hoard. Prof. Patten is well
known among students of political
science as an authority on that sub-
ject. ________
Col. B. M. Thompson will opent
the discussion before the Business
Men's Class, Sunday morning next,
at the Congregational church, on the
subject: "Taxation; Do the rich
bear their share? Should cucrh
property be taxed?''
Charles A. Kent, '99, has returned
to college from his home in Kalama-
zoo where he has been the last few
weeks on account of severe illness.
Next Sunday evening the Young
People's Religious Union of the
Unitarian Church will have charge
of the regular evening service.

MICHIGAN'S DEBATING TEAM.
The Michigan team, of which the above is a cut, is to debate against
Pennsylvania tonight. This team was chosen out of one of the hardest
fought preliminary series which has been held here for some time. The
debaters are thoroughly prepared and a close and interesting contest is in
store for those who attend.
