President Schurman’s Lecture.
President J. G. Schurman of Cornell,
Chairman of the United States Philip-
pine Commission, spoke before the stu-
dents of the University on “The. Philip-
pine Question,” at College Street Hall,
Thursday night, Feb. 15. The lecture
was one of the Phi Beta Kappa course.
President Schurman said there was no
Philippine nation, nothing but an as-
semblage of three distinct races, com-
posed of 84 known tribes, which though
far removed from savagery, were en-
tirely unable to govern themselves. He
thought a. suitable form of government
could be bee ons which would give the
Philippinos what they wanted, which
was ‘ot independence, but religious
liberty, and political franchise.

For a long time, about the only thing
that has kept ANadover athletics: from
being all that they ought to be is the
lack of a gymnasium: and it looks now
Miss Sawyer was one
as if this want is to be suplied in the
near future. Fifty thousand dollars has
been pledged and paid in,—the amount
necessary for the building itself. An
additional amount will be necessary for
equipment ; and the faculty is still look-
ing for contributions for this purpose.
Some necessary changes in the plans are
being made and it is hoped to begin the
construction of the new building as soon
as the frost is out of the ground.
