The Michigan Dai- VOL. XIV. H1ISTORY OF UNIVERSITY. Being Completed by Professor Dem- mon-To be Published Prob- ably this Summer. Professor Isaac N. Demmon, head of the English department of the Uni- versity of Michigan, is at work com- pleting a history of the University of Michigan which will probably be pub- lished this year. About five years ago, the Herndon Co., of Boston, employed Professors B. A. Hinsdale and I. N. Demmon to prepare a history of the University with biographies of the regents, pro- fessors and benefactors, as a part of their series entitled "Universities and their Sons." After Herndon's death, something over a year ago, the company was reorganized and the history and mother materials which Prof. Hinsdale had prepared were transferred to the Board of Regents. Prof. Hinsdale's work will now be supplemented by Prof. Demmon and published under the auspices of the University some time during the com- ing year. The work contains between three and four hundred quarto pages with illustrations of the buildings and grounds and portraits of the regents, professors and benefactors. It covers the whole ground, from the beginning to the present time. Prof. Hinsdale's wA known qualifications as an his- torian is a guarantee of the value of the work. It was the last work of im- portance which Prof. Hinsdale wrote ant was completed just before his death. Proessor Demmon has broaigat the work up to the present tint', and pro- vided iiogra;hies of the regents, pro- fessors and benefactors of the Univer- sity, m^king this feaiture of th3 book more accurate ard cioplete th-- Tb-r ably any other nian in Michigan could have done. To him also belongs the credit- for the revisata of prolcfa after Mr. Hinsdale's death. ANN ARBOR, MICH., FRIDAY, MAY 27, 1904, SPRING CONCERT of No. 171 UNIVERSITY CA"PUS.

An imposing list of speakers has been prepared for June 28, University of Michigan day at St. Louis. Presi- dent Angell will speak for the Uni- versity, Senator Joseph V. Quarles of Wisconsin for the alumni, ex-Senator Thomas W. Palmer of Detroit for Michigan, Judge John E. McKeighan of St. Louis for the St. Louis alumni, and Walter B. Stevens, secretary of the Exposition, will extend the wel- come. Rev. RichardCordley of Lew- rence, Kansas, will give the invoca- tion. All of these men except Presi- dent Angell are University graduates. The University has had 25,000 cir- culars announcing this program print- ed, which will be circulated among alumni throughout the country. The presence of Michigan students on that day is heartily desired. One of the reasons why Michigan has been accorded the honor of a dis- tinct University day is that it is re- garded as having done more for the intellectual development of the terri- tories annexed by the Louisiana pur- chase than any other institution of learning. The local committe which will co- operate with the St. Louis alumni is composed of Deans Hutchins and Vaughan and Profesors Effinger and Allen. 1 iru ;ievenson, tHugo Sonnen- U1«1 itc1J svjtxi ~uc schein, J.
