tt eie by K. B. Hill aad Co, tion to intend the session ol the Cali-opean Literary Society held lant Frl-1y eveninir. We accoidinelf has tened to the hall some time after the time appointed for the meeting, according to our accustomed professional tardineHs. but on arriral, found that we were missing a rare literary treat.

When we entered Miss Macy was reaJing a biographical sketch of George Eliot, whiub showed an acquaintance not only with the life and parentage of the subject, but also with the particular merit of her works. Miss Pierce favored the society with a declamation entithd, ''Curfew "hall not ring to-night," which though lanvliar to the audience, lost none of its interest. Miss Rosa Brunton recited Longfellow's "Psalm of Life," which is in accordance with the constant demon stration of her student work that "Life is earnest." Miss Brooke read a selection appropriate to the occasion of tr recent reunion at Topeka, "The Blue and Gray." Then a short recess was taken in which recreation ai.d amusement held sway. After recess, the editress, Miss Freddie Lippy, read the Pearl Gatherer, the periodical of the society, ahit.h was filled with the usual number of pearls" of thought. The "query box" was then passed, and the members filled it with in-quisitivenes, and the box filled tha members with merriment.

The society has fuininhed their hall with a new carpet, lamps, and furni lure, which give it a neat and attractive appearance. The Caliopeans are to be commended for their enter-crise and the progress shown in their work. They have our best wishes lor success. College Notes. Lane has a new deputy agent in the person ol Mr.

S. Tiraraon is tha coming commencement orator.
