~I~ettI+Of , n. Wtail p. VOL. II.-No. 30. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1891. PmCE, THREE CENTS. The Mathematical Club. At the last meeting of the Mathe- matical Club, Dr. Markley presented a very interesting paper on Sir Wil- liam Hamilton's method of differen- tiation. After this followed a business meeting, the officers of the club being elected for the first semester. Mr. James W. Glover was chosen president ; Mr. Man Warren, secre- tary and treasurer. The election of vice president was deferred until a later meeting. The next meeting will be held in Room 17, on Saturday evening. Mr. Mann will read a paper on"The Life and Works of Euclid" and Mr. Maul will discuss the properties of a certain logarithmic curve. During the present year the club intends to present papers on the lives and works of the greater math- ematicians, both ancient and modern. It also purposes to have the subjects of mathematical study and teaching freely discussed. At each meeting, simple and instructive problems re- lating to class-room work, will be presented. In this way it is desired to serve a two-fold purpose; first, to awaken an interest in the subject of pure mathematics; second, to give the students an opportunity to ex- change ideas with regard to the study and teaching of the same. All are invited to attend these meetings. A Challenge. Editers U. OF Ms. DAILY: I positively deny having fouled Mr. Hunter in the soo yards dash last Saturday. There were no ropes or markings to guide me in my course, and as there was from Io to 25 feet between me and the pole Mr.-Hunter was not pocketed out from winning the race. Mr. Hunter may be a better sprinter, but in the interest of fair play and to demon- strate satisfactorily to his olserving friends my honest intentions, I'will run Mr. Hunter a iou yards dash at any convenient time and place set by the Athletic Association; they to have all the gate receipts. Tom E. BURGESS. Correction. In the list of Post Graduate Laws in our Saturday's issue, the name of W. F. Wanless was' accidentally omitted. The residence of G. A. Kendall should be "Damascus, Me." instead of "Napoleon, O." Athletic Directors' Meeting. The board of directors of the Athletic Association met last even-y ing in Alpha Nu hall. The business of the meeting was principally the passing of bills incurred last year and the first part of this year. The foot-ball manager made a report of expenses past and prospective. Six- teen men will be taken to Chicago next Saturday and Mr. Murphy will accompany the team. No arrange- ments have been made to secure reduced rates, but there will un- doubtedly be reduced rates for the game with Cornell in Chicago on November 28. Tickets will be on sale about Thursday for the game in Detroit with Cornell on November 21. They will cost $1.25 for round trip, including entrance to the game. They will be for sale by the direct- ors only, and they may be procured at the ticket window in the main hall every morning, at a time to be announced later. Professors Rolfe and de Pont and Messrs. Duffy and Prettyman of the advisory board were present at the meeting.1 Free Press Take Notice, The attention of the sporting editor of the Detroit Free Press, who says "why not call it hand-ball, for the only part the feet cut in the game out there are to support the weight of the player," is called to the account of the Princeton-Penn- sylvania game on Saturday, in the Philadelphia Press, where the ball was kicked 26 times at least.

Both Blind Boone's Csncert. The concert given by Blind Boone in the Congregational church last evening was very well attended, and judging from the demonstrations the audience was very well pleased with the entertainment. Boone's rendition of Suwanee river was very fine, as was his own composition the Marshfield tornado. After the con- cert he gave many clever imitations of a fife and drum, music box, fast train on the Michigan Central, and the tuning of a violin.
