The training season for the nine is over and things have settled down to the serious reality of intercollegiate con-y petition. The squad, together with Coach McAllister and Manager Kennedy, will leave on the rtr :32 this morning for sunny Kentucky, and tomorrow will see a good or a bad start on what ought to be one of the greatest seasons in the history of Michigan baseball. The final practice game between the varsity and the scrubs was played yes- terday amd the flaws revealed were few and far between. The batting of the entire team is materially improved and the pitching staff is in good fettle. Barr will probably do most of the pitching, but Donahue and Linthicum will come in for a good share. Snow is the utility man selected for the trip. He is batting nicely and if needed in any of the field- ig positions will prove far from a weakness. The practice season closed most aus piciously. The day was almost perfect. ihe sun shone brightly and the diamond was protected from the slight breeze byy the grandstand which covers the north and east of tlce held. Linlticum, Barr and Sincock pitched for the scrubs, with Emerman receiving. For the varsity McAllister pitched to Enzenroth for the lrst few innings. 'Ihen Donahue twirled with the coach behind the bat. The var- sity won the game, 5 to o. In the first' oing neither of the pitchers was solved, but in the second the "M" men found" Mac" and clouted him around the field until the bags were filled. Kelley was up. -He caught the ball for a pretty single and two of the ten on bases found their way home. In the fourth inning Wheeler sacrificed and in the fifth a hit to left field netted him two sacks and brought i brace, For the rest of the gamue neither of the teams could score. Barr pitched a strong game, as, did Sicock. Donahue and Litthicum were a bit inconsistent, but their work was of such a quality that they need not be feared in collegiate company. Both En- zenroth and Emersan cttaught well, whipping out a number of wouldhe stealers at second. Quite a number of fans were out to see the last game, and there will be a good-sized bunch at the train to see them on their way. Fifteen men will take the southern trip. They are Coach McAllister, Man- ager Kennedy, Captain Sullivan, Tft, Dunne, Kelley, Paterson, Giddings, Mel- lon, Wheeler, Barr, Donahue, Linthi- cum, Enzenroth, and Snow. They will play as stated in yesterday's Daily. The tour will be: Ann Arbor to George- town; Georgetown to Knoxville; Knox- ville to Lebanon; Lebanon to Nasville I Nashville to Crawfordsville; Crawfords- ville to Ann Arbor, arriving home on the date of the opening of college.

He was bornt 'in Switzerland and was educated for a mu- sician. Even today he is a mrvelous performer on the piano. His tithe now is .almost entirely taken ttp with the study of the Elizabethan drama. He treats this subject from an historical point of view. He has spent much tine n England and Itondon studying tlhe surroundings atnd conditions which in- fluenced the Elizabethan writers, ie also has made a deep study of the atti- tude of each writer and treats the play from this .point of view. He is an in- timate friend of Furness, the editor of the Veriorttm edition of Shakespeare, and his suggestions have proved ery helpful to that writer, Just reently Pyof Shelling published a book, "The History of Elizabetlan Drama.".

CARNEGIE FUND UNDERESTIMATED President Angell Says It Is of Vital Interest to Faculty Men and University. The importance of the announcement that Andrew Carnegie will add $5,ooo ooo to the Carnegie foundation, or what- ever sus may be necessary to include as pension beneficiaries such professors of the state universities as are eligible, is perhaps underestimated by a great many. President Angell yesterday stated that he considered the action to be of the most vital interest not only to the faculty members as individuals, but to the University as a whole. "The extension of the gift to faculty members in state institutions," said Dr. Angell, "in the first place will bene- fit these men who, on account of the inadequacy of the salaries which they receive, have not been enabled to save enough with which to support themselves properly in their old age. But, more- over, it will benefit all the state univer- sities also because it will enable them to secure better men. Sometimes, since the gift of Mr. Carnegie to the other institutions, men of exceptional ability have been unwilling to accept positions in state schools, naturally preferring to, labor where they will be snsre that they will be well proeided for in the future: The new order of things willsput the state university on an equality with the schools which formerly were given an unfair advantage to some degree at least. "The gift does not yet extend to the sectarian universities and colleges. It has been rather difficult to decide jut which institutions are sectarian and which are not. In general such schools as are required by their charters to have as their president or a certain proportion of their governing body members of some particular demonimation, have been ruled to be sectarian. Those also in which, by their charters the board of trustees is selected by the governiig body of the church are included in the same class. "'The additional gift will effect ap- proximately forty universities. As in the future the state university will prob- ably be the most important one in at least two-thirds of the states, its import- ance can be more easily estimated." PROF. BEZIAT DE BORDES LECTURES ON "HORACE" Prof. Andre Beziat de Bordes lectured Son Corneille's "Horace" yestgrday after- soon, as one of the regular 'Thursday afternoon French legtues. Readings from this drama were given to illustrate this lecture. f rnof. Beziat compared the treatment aofCorneille's "Horace" with tose of Italianand Spanish autsors who had otreated Ise same suhject before him. Corneille in this play showed noe or- iginality of inventio thassits anyother of his dramas. It was shown how the Play typified Corneille's ideas of tragedy, for in "Horace" the style known as Cor- neillian was typified to a greater extent than in his other tragedies. The next French lectures will be given beginning April 30, on the subject of "L'Avare" whicl wille tesented May 8 at the New Whitney, y the Cerc e Dramatique Francais. PROF.
