THUKSI 'AY, FEBRUARY 16, 1905.
SUSQUEHANNA. N0TE8.
Dr. F. P. Manhart, an old pastor
of Bloomsburg, is giving his entire
energy to reorganizing the Theo
logical Department and has secured
a large number of books for the
library.
Under President J. B. Focht, D.
D., the work of the college in all
its departments has been thoroughly
organized and is in perfect working
order, the best in the history of the
Institution and there has been a
laree increase in the number "of
students.
There has been a decided gain of
students in the college department
which is manned by a corps of nine
professors.
The Teachers' College and Col
lege Preparatory courses will open
on Monday, April 3. and continue
until Wednesday, August 23
These courses give every teacher
n opportunity to teach and take an
entire college course. Students can
to best advantage enter these
courses on April 3d and June 15th
The Academy is under the prin
cipalship of Prof. K. M. Brumgart,
A. M. and five assistants, all of
whom are college graduates and
have had the experience ot teaching
in the public schools.
The Music department with
corps of 6ve instructors is under the
directorship of Prof. IS. E. Sheldon,
a graduate and a post graduate lor
three years, of the New England
Conservatory.
The Business department is
splendidly equipped under the di
rection of Prof. W. w. Reno and
Miss Anna Kahler, both trained
teachers of wide experience.
The Athletics of the college are
under the charge of Unas, h
Teufel, A. B , a student of the
Theological department. Mr. Teu
fel is the famous ex-Buckncll
catcher. We will have during the
spring term, one of the best college
base ball teams. Chester Weaver,
the well known pitcher, has been a
student of the college during the
entire year.
The basket ball team under tjie
coaching of Mr. Teufel has won
thus far, four of the five games
played.
Democrats Will Publish Cxpenses.
Are Also Preparing Bill to be Introduced In
This Legislature to Requite all Candi
dates to Make Public Their Outlays.
If the plan which the Democratic
lawyers of Philadelphia have in
preparation is carried , into effect
every campaign committee and
every political candidate will be
required to file with the State
authorities a sworn statement of the
money spent in connection with
elections.
This matter was brought up at
the meeting of the Philadelphia
Democratic City Committee last
Monday night and it was decidtd
that the Democratic Campaign
Committee would publish an ac
count of the money it expends in
connection with this election.
A bill bearing upon the subject is
now being prepared for introduction
at this session of the Legislature.
A similar measure has been intro
duced in Congress by Bourke Cock
ran, and before completing the bill
Mr. Kane will confer with Mr.
Cockran.
People who are walking along
the road and are overtaken by the
rural delivery mail wagons, should
remember that however much the
driver would like to give them a
ride he does uot dare to do so.
Uncle Sam has decreed that no one
shall ride in the wagons but the
mail carrier, and he must be obeyed.
There are sections of the country
where that ruling means more than
it does here, but it had to be made
general Rural carrier on the
routes leaving Bloomsburg say that
requests for a ride are almost daily
occurrences

THEATRICAL.
THE HOLY CITY.
The day of the stage being
de.
cried as an instrument of the devil,
presenting alluring visions of sin,
seems to have passed with the
coming of the religious play; and
the end of the warfare twixt Church
and Stage seems to be as welcome
to one as to the other.
Plays which a few years ago
would have been denounced as in
famous and even profane are to
day welcomed alike by Church and
Laymen. An example might be
cited in "The Holy City." The
nlav not only deals with Bible
times, but in it many leading Bibli
cal characters appear. It is a drama
with the story taken from Bible
history. "The Holy City" is a
theatrical offering, yet the principal
character is John the Baptist, and
even the Crucifixion is shown in
tableau (the figure of Christ being
represented by a painting). Many
other seemingly daring innovations
are made, yet the play has received
the unanimous endorsement of all
of the members of the clergy who
have seen it.
The secret of this seemingly
marvelous change in the sentiment
of the Church toward the stage may
be attributed to two causes: First,
the recognition by the church that
such plays as "The Holy City"
not only tend to direct theatre
goers' attention to the Church, but
that they also convey of themselves
a grand good lesson, more force
fully and more successfully than
any other method; secondly be
cause the very delicacy of the sub
ject has caused it to be treated with
such respect and reverence that
those who "go to scoff remain to
pray" and even the most devout
person can find nothing to offend.
So "The Holy City" with its
cast of Bible Characters, has proven
one of the successes of the theatri
cal season, and two companies, one
in the East and one in the West,
are nightly crowding the theatres
in which it is shown. It will be
seen here next Tuesday evening,
February 21.

Emperor William of Germany,
has made the novel proposition to
President Roosevelt of an exchange
of college professors of the two
countries. His idea is the adoption
of a workable plan by which Ameri
can professors mav be relieved from
their regular duties for a period of
six months, more or less, and spend
the time in giving a number of
lectures in each of the prominent
universities of Gei many. German
professors to be given similar time
for lectures in American universi
ties. Ambassador Tower, now on
his way home, will present the
president an outline of the scheme
It is the Emperor's belief that great
benefit will Le derived by students
of one country from hearing a dis

other by a professor of that country.
