Will Not Place a Corner Stone.
At a meeting of the senicr law class
it was decided to take no action regard-
ing the placing of a corner stone in the
new law building, inasmuch as the Uni-
versity authorities would not allow the
class name to be cut in the stone. A
class tax was voted for the purpose of
purchasing a testimonial for Instructor
Hughes. Prof. Kirchner was chosen
to deliver the closing address during
graduation week. Prof. Kirchner has,
however, declined on account of stress
of business, and the class will have to
tke further action.

Fought With Admiral Dewey.
"Old" Jim Hill, the night watchman
of the U. of M., was coxswain of the
ship Tyler in the civil war. when Rear
Admiral Dewey was a 'ieutenant in
command of the Mississippi under Ad-
miral Porter. The old salt never misses
an opportunity to praise the gallant
commander. He was with him at Port
Hudson, when the Mississippi was
blown up by a torpedo, and says that
Admiral Dewey was the last man to
leave the sinking ship, and then only
as the waters engulfed her. He always
showed great coolness in action and
never hesitated to speak a kindly word
to the common seaman. In his treat-
ment of his men he was always thought-
ful, yet demanded strictest obedience.
