Randall Lee Gibson
Rom tSj2—Died i8g2.
Of all the brilliant statesmen that have served Louisiana in the Senate of
the United States, the one whose work will probably have the most lasting effect
upon the welfare of his constituents was he to whom this volume is dedicated.
Tobias Gibson, father of Randall Gibson, was the owner of a large Louisiana
estate, and among his other possessions was numbered a delightful summer home
near Lexington, Kj'. It was in this latter community, the home of Henry Clay,
that his distinguished son was born and reared. Randall Gibson graduated from
Yale in '53 and was valedictorian of that class. There is an incident of his
career there which may Ije of no small interest to college men, and which may
also serve as an illustration of his youthful temperament. It is related by one
of his cla.ss-mates that while delivering the oration which was part of the Class
Da}' programme, although enjoying the closest attention of his audience, Gib.son
was so overcome by the idea that his performance of the part was not equal to
the occasion that he stopped short in the midst of his speech, bowed to his
audience and class-mates, and descended from the platform. It is added by the
same authority that to him alone, of all those present, had the semblance of such
a thought occurred.
After graduation he travelled in Europe, and upon his return studied law
and received his diploma from the Law Department of the University of Lou-isiana.
He served throughout the civil war in the army of the Confederate
States, and in the official reports of his superior officers he is frequently men-tioned
as having displayed exceptional bravery and judgment. In the United
States Senate, after the war, he rendered valuable services to Louisiana both by
his powerful defense of her rights and through his influence with the heads of
the general government.
He was the pioneer advocate of the Government's improvement of the
Mississippi River and of the construction of the Eads jetties, foreseeing clearly
the national advantage to be deri\-ed from the former, as well as the engineering
merits of the latter. These improvements, together with Tulane University, both
of which are in a large measure the products of his labor, will forever remain
monuments to his memory. As long as the river flows, as long as education
remains the torch of the world, so long will his far-sightedness shine and his
name be revered by generation after generation.
When Paul Tulane, then a resident of New Jersey, conceived the idea of
endowing an institution of learning in the State wherein he had laid the founda-tion
of his fortune, his eye fell upon Gibson as a man not only prominent in
public affairs, but as one so deeplj' interested in the welfare of that State as to
be eminently fitted for the trust which he had to bestow. To Gibson, then,
although up to that time personalh- unknown to him, Tulane disclosed his
project and entrusted the upbuilding of the University whose benign influence
and deserved fame are even now spreading throughout the country. During the
remainder of his life, to promote the prosperity of that institution was his con-stant
aim ; its advancement and development into a true and perfect University
which would cast the characters of its scholars in the loftiest moulds of man-hood,
was the subject of his incessant solicitude.
He was trusted by his State for his purity of motive, endeared to the South
by his service in her army, honored by the Nation for his service in its Senate,
respected by humanity for his work for education ; his life will forever remain a
young man's example and incentive to become that of which this country is so
much in need, a true American statesman.
The coddled infant, which, with fear and trembling, the board of editors
of la.st year sent out as the first Tulane Jambalaya, has, with the nourish-ment
afforded by our great Universit}', grown into the lusty, self-reliant
young hopeful which we this da}- unloose from our apron-strings.
As the child's god-parents, to whose tender care both its mental and
moral training have been entrusted, we do feel some pride, and we hope
justifiable pride, in the result of our conscientious efforts in its behalf. But
it were both unfair and ungrateful, should we fail to acknowledge how uauch
our labors have been lightened and how much our difficulties have been
smoothed by the ones to whom it owes the breath of life, and from whom
it inherited not only its jovial and kindl)- disposition, but whatever it may
possess of talent and of parts.

Senior Class History
3.
"We think, therefore we are; and being, we must make ourselves felt in
this institution called Tulane." Thus this Class of '97 deeply soliloquized after
it had been assembled in the halls of the college four years ago. And then,
having thought, it proceeded to act, and acted in such a manner, that within a
few weeks, it had the Juniors bluffed, the Seniors scared, and theFaculty on a
string. Everywhere was its power acknowledged, except among the Sopho-mores,
a queer set that had a reputation of studying nothing else but Osteology,
in which they were considered very learned, and were said to have discovered
some important principles in its application to human needs.
These fellows took it into their heads that the}- were the rightful rulers, and,
one evening, removed bjr force a chrysanthemum from the lapel of one of our
members, and posted a notice requesting the Class of '97 to discontinue the use
of such ornaments at once.
This was an excellent opportunity, and could not be missed ; so we deter-mined
to show these scientists that the Class of '97 could not be insulted with
impunity. In fine we determined to thrash them, and for that purpose took up
positions in the hall, next morning.
A crowd of Juniors and Seniors gathered to .see the fight, but before it began,
they withdrew to safet)'—some upon the stairs, and others into the library,
where they placed themselves under the care of Miss Bell.
It was a stubbornly fought battle, but we held our own. Seven times did
they charge again.st our lines, and eleven times we drove them back, and finally
they fled.
Once more our right to rule was established, and .soon we grew friendly
with our whilom enemy, and they invited us into their laboratory in the deserted
medical building, where thej' had initiated a few Juniors aiid Seniors into their
mysteries. Some of us went with them, but one elderly Freshman, whom some
of us call Papa, and others, Ike, gravely shook his head, saying, "I fear their
craftv looks." And those of us who went learned the wisdom of his words.
We want it understood tliat '97 is not proud, and does not believe in blowing
its own horn. But it maybe well to mention that news of this " Battle of Chrysan-themums
" spread beyond the college walls, and with it the reputation of the
class. Nay, it reached the capital of the United States, and created such an
impression that President Cleveland appointed our leader to West Point in order
that his talents might be put to the best use — in serving his country.
During our Freshman year the class was represented in all movements of
the college. One of our number captured the Declamation Medal, and one of
this glorious class was elected Captain of the Football Team. These two
examples show the "all aroundness " of the Ninety-.sevens.
With this reputation behind us we moved into the new quarters of Tulane.
And because we remained quiet for a while, it was thought that the old spirit of
the class was dead. Now it happened that, about the middle of the term,
some certain persons adopted our class colors. And whereas it was said that
some other certain fellows went to that place and removed our colors by
changing them to a more suitable hue ; and, whereas the Faculty decided to
give some certain ones of us a holiday in consequence, a great fear came over
the rest of the college that, in their absence, things would go to rack and ruin ;
and a mass-meeting was held, and the Faculty was asked not to give these men
a holiday. And this, after some preliminaries, they did, to the great satisfaction
of all concerned.
With such a reputation the class might well have rested on its laurels during
its Junior and Senior years. But it did not. For in every walk of college life
its members forged ahead, bringing honor to the light and dark blue. They
held their rightful positions as leaders in the literary societies, in college jour-nalism,
in college organizations, in societ}', in athletics, and in everything that
pertained to the advancement of Tulane.
Then, too, the class was varied and had many wonderful beings in it, from
the "antiques," who, as rumor said, are married, down to the ''kids," who
would not forget that they had left the nursery ; from the man who could
remember the thirteenth, or an}' other, word from the last in any recitation of
the day, to the fellow who always said, "Have j'ou studied your lesson? I
have n't looked at mine."
Some classes, upon leaving college, plant a tree on the campus that they
may be remembered; but '97 has left in Tulane monuments more lasting than
wood. Among them maj-be mentioned, the jCa/Zy College Spirit, the first college
daily published in the South, and the Gulf States Inter-collegiate Oratorical
Association. And not only did '97 organize the Association, but a '97 man came
off victorious in its first contest, defeating crack orators from other colleges,
winning honor for Tulane, renown for himself, and glor}' for his class.
Well may we sa}', as ever)' class that graduates says : " Tulane has lost her
finest class, what will the poor college do without us?

History^ Class of 1898
In ancient biblical times all great events had some prophet to announce
their advent; but we modern mortals have no indication beforehand to point to
the happenings of fate. Had such been so, our rivals for fame—namely, the
other college classes—may have been better prepared to resist but never to
overcome the incoming rush of the stalwart sons of '98.
And why should this class be so heralded? Find its record in college
annals, in the clubs and the organizations ; find its record in the victories won ;
find its record in anj'thing that goes to make a paragon of a class, and then all
is explained.
Poetry clothes subjects in expressive language, appealing to the inward sen-sibilities
of man, and more nearly conveys the feelings of one to another. The
writer is not of Homeric intellect, nor has he Milton's elegance; his feelings for
the class which he calls his are not expressible bj' him, yet 3'ou all know what
the}' are like ; .so pardon a novice in trj'ing to lay before you the deeds of valor
which have made the history of '98.
Of its members, one, all of them, come within the plane of emulation, and
their class spirit could not be better.
Well do we remember the halcyon Freshman days, our victorious Sopho-more
contests, and our Junior record.
Our Freshman j'ear was replete with activity. The two football games
plaj'ed on the .same day proved our courage, and if we must acknowledge defeat
by '97 in the second -game, the glory was ours. That, however, is ancient
history, and later events have completely settled the question of supremacy.
When Sophomores, champions on the diamond was the reward of '98.
Also, when earnestly we did try to arrange a series of games on the glorious
gridiron, no other class in college felt dispo.sed to meet annihilation, and we
were champions by default.
Four of our men succeeded in playing with the " 'Varsity" eleven. But it
remains for '98, in her Junior year, to carry off the palm and wear the laurel
;
the class which with consummate ability so easily defeated '99 at football by
the remarkable score of 71-0; the class which gave six men to the '"Varsity"
football team; the same class which won the interclass baseball championship
without a defeat to mar its unprecedented record ; and the class which furnished
five men to " 'Varsity" baseball nine.
The reader may think that the writer is too eulogistic in his praises for his
own class; but in the words of last year's historian, I say to him, "It is well
'98 is not now in its Senior year, as its deeds—literary, athletic, and otherwise
—
would fill the present Jambalaya."
The President of the T. A. A. is a '98 man, and one of the best athletes in
College; our track team has a goodly portion of '98 men; and in all the branches
of athletics there is not wanting a representative of '98.
Though foremost in the domain of physical strength, this does not militate
against the high intellectual standing which '98 has attained for herself.
In college publications, the life of that unity of the classes which looks to
the advancement of the students' interests, the Class of '98 has its full round
measure of representation. In all college organizations, the '98 men have
stamped an indelible imprint which points to advancement and perfection.
The history of each man which follows is the history of '98. In there
witness the confirmation of the facts which I have given. There will you see
the strength and predominance of '98 in all college organizations.
And now, as the time rapidly sweeps by, let the ether classes profit by our
example and follow it when it leads forward. There is no secret to our great
success ; laj^ aside petty jealousies for common interest, as we have done ; exer-cise
a more fraternal spirit, then unity is engendered, and success will follow\

When we were yet obUged to find our class-rooms by the aid of the direc-tory,
the Sophomores, having taken spirits regularly in order to screw up their
courage, hastened their doom by issuing a decree, written on water, which pro-hibited
the carrying of canes by Freshmen. In attempting to carry out this
order, the whole class assailed one lone Freshman, who let them have his cane
with so great a goodwill that precipitate retreat was necessary, discretion in this
case being the better part of valor. The class was standing in the hall. The
"Sophs" appeared in battle array. Mars came around the corner in full pan-oply,
including two six-shooters and a sword-cane. Valkyries, shrieks, books,
moans and chalk filled the air. The gong .sounded ; the battlefield was exam-ined,
and not a Soph was to be found of all that goodl}^ company.
In football, as in all other things, we took a prominent part ; and, though
unfortunate circumstances saved the "Sophs'" bacon by making it impossible
to play the annual game, we showed our mettle by furnishing to the " 'Varsitj^
"
Foote and Rubira, men whom she could ill have spared. The football season
over, those balmy days began—those glorious, ever-to-be-remembered days—
when the Faculty Schercked us, and we, after defeating the "Commodore,''
shirked the Binomial Theorem, when we held, so easily, the pony race records,
and were considered the most systematic riders of the time.
I know not what other classes have to boast, but I do know that to Ninety-nine
was left the glory of having a menagerie, consisting of seventeen rare wild
animals, to sa)- nothing of the dog show, the Chinese viceroy, who ]ierforms on
the slack wire, the freak who has bones of steel, and Afric's two sable sons,
who attend to the beasts. 'Tis said that the management is about to conclude
an agreement with Ninety-eight for the only living skeleton. This has been
denied, however.
The Freshmen, this year, were sweet little fellows, and obedienth' adopted
our suggestion that they make their class color green. This color, which was
extremely appropriate, was retained until that momentous December day when
thej^ met their fate at our hands, to the tune of fourteen-two, with variations
from "Onward, Christian Soldiers" and "The Old Cat Died." Their colors are
now ivory, black and Prussian blue. This was the only match game that our
football team played during this 5'ear, though there were some few practice
games. It suffices, however, to say that from this team were chosen six of those
heroes who so recently carried the '
' Olive and Blue '
' victorious through many a
blood}' field, and covered themselves with glorj' and with mud.
Of baseball I say nothing, feeling sure that the histor}' of our feats upon the
diamond, like our Foote upon the gridiron, will go down to posterit}' with Sara-toga
and the cherr)' tree.
In conclusion, let me state that I boast not in saying that not until the
entrance of Ninety-nine was the " Interclass Baseball League" reorganized;
then onl}- did the "Arbor Society" come into existence; the tennis clubs, the
energetic College Spirit (our present great daily) and Jambalaya her immortal
self became realities when, and only when, "Ninety-nine" ceased to be a longed-for
future possibility, and took the leadership of the powers that be. From these
cold, unvarnished facts any one whose mind is unbiased may see the beneficent
influence that this class exerts and the vigor that it is imparting to the whole
University. Amen.
For Rent—One choice "Billy Goat." Fraternities and clubs having initia-tions
on hand will find him verj' efficient. For particulars, see circus manager.

" IT IS WITH WORDS AS WITH SUNBEAMS; THE MORE THEY ARE CONDENSED THE
HOTTER THEY BURN."
We possess many sunbeams, each sending effectivelj^ forth rays that consti-tute
that immensely luminous body, the Class of Nineteen Hundred.
Were it demanded of the historian to give even a fragmentary review of
each member of the Freshman Class, that poor historian would shudder at so
laborious an undertaking ; for he would be compelled, in his desire to perform his
duty justly, to occupy unlimited space—each sunbeam casting a radiance of its
own.
When the early days of October found forty-one aspirants to the honors of
Tulane crowded within the assembly hall, surely evidence of Bacon's truthful
words, "Many would come to wisdom if they did not think themselves already
there," must have been detected upon some of our countenances. However, we
were soon removed from that "tinseled throne of self-complacency," and not
many days had passed when we were awakened to the fact that wisdom had yet
to be attained.
Shortly after the opening of college an exciting and important step was
taken, the election of class officers. Each party enthusiastically upheld its nom-inee,
proclaiming with reverberative eloquence the qualifications of each. And
with what results? Upon the manly shoulders of Mr. Edgar Woods fell the
mantle of Presidency ; that of Vice Presidency upon Mr. Chas. Matthews, and
42
that of Secretary upon Mr. Paul Jahncke. Also, at this time football received
its share of attention, and for officers it gained Mr. S. Russ as Captain and Mr.
N. Harris as Manager. But the team was doomed to a temporary loss, that of
its worthy Captain, who, on one of his first advents upon the field of battle, was
deprived of the use of a limb, due to a dislocated joint. And the team wept
!
No more did it hear his commanding and encouraging voice ; no more was it
inflamed with the desire to conquer or to die ; for who was there to spur it on to
victory with proclamations as thrilling, as burning as his ? Its distress, however,
was soon alleviated. Captain Russ, having regained the u.se of his limb, returned
to his post of duty amid bravoes of satisfaction.
Baseball, for a long time supplanted by football, came into prominence, and
with Mr. Trosclairas Captain, the team distinguished itself on several occasions.
Cardinal Wolsey tells us : "Fling away ambition ; by that sin fell the angels."
And yet Mr. Harris was ambitious, but, not being an angel, he did not fall, for
his friends, realizing his exceptional capabilities, lifted him roughly from the
managership of a football team and landed him gently on the presidential chair.
Mr. Harris' '
' uplifting '
' marked the second election of class officers, when the
Vice Presidency was bestowed upon Mr. Geo. Westfeldt, Mr. Paul Jahncke
receiving the well-merited distinction of retaining his office as Secretary. Under
the excellent guidance of these gentlemen the continued success of the class is
already assured. It was during this administration that the class colors (red and
black) and the class pin were decided upon. The pin is of a diamond shape, of
chaste design, with " 1900" boldl)' stamped upon it.
Ambitious and studious, and realizing the importance of higher education
and the advantages offered us by our excellent instructors, there is no doubt but
that in the Freshman year there has been laid the foundation of a class which
will do credit to itself and honor to its Alma Mater.
Howe'er resplendent be this world of ours.
With grand achievements of the living great,
There still remains for him of lofty powers
A place to rise above his mundane state.
So rally. Freshmen, hasten the transition
From what ye are and what ye hope to be ;
Yea, speed it with the swift wings of Ambition,
And gain the palm of your ideality.
All your successes cast a bold reflection.
Not only on you who the goal attain.
But also, from your firm and close connection.
Upon the hi.story of the Great Tulane.

"Backward, turn backward, O Time in Ihy flight,
Make me a Freshman again just for tonight"
—
sighs some sentimental Senior. But I have not a doubt that the "tonight" in
question is a Friday night. Yes, it may seem sad, but it is nevertheless true,
that not one of the class of '97, if she had the power, would bring back those
Freshman days. " My salad days, when I was green in judgment," quotes some
Shakespearian student.
That first year was, so to speak, the iron age of our college career—an age
when rules, lessons, teachers and,
in fact, everj'thing seemed hard,
except the poor little Freshmen
—
they were very .soft indeed.
Now, advanced in years, we
think of those Freshman days as
the babyhood days of our college
life—days when we still kept our
academic rattles, when the tears
were quick to flow, and when our
favorite pastime was kicking (oh !).
Fortunatelj', however, we grew,
and by the time our Sophomore
year rolled around we had ac-quired
all the bumptiousne.ss of
the irrepressible small girl. The
happy state of Freshman softness
had not lasted; they, too, had become hardened, and as Sophomores they
entered upon the brazen era of their college course.
The age of brass—somehow the words are peculiarly descriptive of the
Sophomore year of the class of '97. You remember how they astonished the
world of mathematics by a remarkable trigonometric dis-solution.
"Goody Trig."
"Requiescat in pace."
Yes, we confess it, we did have brass, but it was burnished brass and we shone.
This year passed, we were Juniors, and had reached our silver age. " Speech
is silver," says the old maxim. This expresses our class tendencies exactly.
The Junior year was the age of speech ; in other words, we did a great deal of
talking. But the class was as good as its word every time. When it told the
incoming Freshmen that it would be a sister to them, it showed that it meant
what it said bj' giving them a ^rsi-c\ass spread. Again, when '97 found it
necessary to tell the public that it was a remarkable class, it straightwaj' proved
it by the giving of a "Junior Jumble."
We had now passed our little girl stage, so to speak, and were beginning
to put on airs. We increased our importance, a metaphorical lengthening of our
dresses ; we did bright things, and then looked for some one to admire us. But
this stage of development is also gone, and '97 has entered upon the full-fledged
young ladyhood of the Senior year. The weight of college years is upon us.
Dignified, staid, we look back with pride upon our past history from the limits
of this golden age we are now enjoying.
"Silence is golden," and the loquacious Junior has been transformed, b}'
the touch of some wonderful Midas, into the dignified Senior, who discreetly
holds her peace, and it is a pretty big piece at that.
Yes, this is our age of gold. Our hours, our moments, have become golden,
likewise our opportunities, and already the class is the possessor of one plain
gold ring.
The length of the college life is three whole years and one, but if by reason
of it be five long years, yet are there tasks, "quizzes" and sorrow; they
are soon all passed, and we graduate—
One for the money.
Two for the show,
Three to get ready.
Four for the go.

History, Class of J 898
¥¥
T was during the last part of June, in the year 1894, that the Class of
'98 left the Academ}^ the " cradle of classes," and set out in a
body to follow the various courses in Newcomb, which lead to
distinction b}- degrees. Of the many classes which had pre-ceded
this illustrious band, none ever had so bright an outlook.
Indeed, the Ninety-eighters were the first who carried with them,
J as trophies of past conquest, certificates given them by the
academic chiefs when the class set out on its march to college.
Three months later, on the first of October, it appeared at Newcomb,
entered the Assembly Hall in a body, and there received the title of Freshmen.
As soon as the company, now somewhat enlarged by the entrance of recruits,
was reorganized under its new name, the members chose from among themselves
Elise Cockerham as their chieftain. The learned owl they wore upon their
breasts, and green and gold floated from their banner. The green emblematic of
their freshness and youth, the gold of their high standard of value. It would
be hopeless to endeavor to enumerate all the exploits of so great a class. We
shall pass hastily over many invasions into Libraria, which drove the com-mander
(of silence) to the depths of despair. The splendid records made in
Gymnasia, and many minor achievements, to the great triumph of Class Night.
On that evening, as everyone knows, was enacted on the stage of Gymnasia.
" The Freshman's Dream." Through this great act the Class of '98 won honor
and fame at the very beginning of its career. So ended the first year's cam-paign,
and the company went into .summer quarters. In the fall, as Sophs
^
they renewed their activits-. ])ail>' thc-y coiiquerfd new foes and made new
friends. Among the former, Trig O'Nomitry, proved the most formidal)Ie,
while of the latter, Shakespeare became the most valned.
Perhaps the greatest triumph ot the Ninety-eighters was when, on their
second class night, they united their best friend, Shakespeare, with their oldest,
Mother Goose, to create a most novel per-
^6 t&t£o4jij formance. It is useless to go into detail,
/OO-t^iA'viAtVc^ for everyone has heard of the night when
,
^// ^^--tttt^ '98 thus made "ends" meet.
yUhiyX-aJy^Jirr On the first of October, 1896, the

Espy, stood on the border of Junior year,
which is conceded by all to present the
greatest obstacles to advancement in col-lege.
With never-failing energy', however,
this troop entered it and continued its
victorious march, meeting with resistance
in onl}' one direction ; this was in Gym-nasia,
where '97 claimed supremacy. The
two clas,ses, on meeting, immediately joined
in terrible combat, a strife which will go
down to posterity as the "War of New-comb."
For some time the struggle went
against the Ninety-eighters, their opponents
being more practiced in the art, but soon
the courage and strength of '98 began to
bear fruit, and the enemy was driven back.
The day of the final battle has not yet
come, but '98 looks forward to the contest
with confidence.
The Junior year is not yet passed, but
still the band moves onward, alwa5's bright,
alwa>'s merry, for just beyond they see the
Senior plain, across which the wa}^ is not
so rough and offers fewer obstacles.
Of the future of the Class of '98,
great things are prophesied, for where
knowledge and strength go hand in hand,
nothing is impossible. But, in the record
of facts, the future can have no place, and
with the present, this bit of classic histor}'
must end.

History, Class of 1899
Newcomb College
.Sjy.-:-^
XE short year ago we entered college eighteen strong. Since
then we have increased in numbers and brilliancy, and have
"grown in favor with gods (?) and inen'\- that is to say, Pro-fessors
(/). Of those who entered the field with us and did
not remain to share the brunt of the Sophomore year, some
have retired to peace and quiet, to recover from serious wounds
received in the fray. Others, unwearied and unharmed b}' their mighty exer-tions,
flit merrily past us to enjo}- the sweets of other pleasures than those of
ploughing through Livy, of unraveling the mazes of Trigonometry, and of
solving the mysteries of Chemistry.
We included within our number a Boutcher and a Baker, but unfortunately
no candlestick maker. Unless, indeed, that term might be applied to the whole
class, for do we not furnish shining lights to our Alma Mater? x\nd j'et some
seem to think that our motto is, "Don't Kerr." I am sure, however, that this
is not so, for one of us at least. Because in our very rare (?) disputes, she is not
at all indifferent, but adds a soothing benediction, which acts like oil on troubled
waters. We never shirk our duties, and altogether, we are as steady as a strong,
firm Post. All our college asks is Moore of such as we have proved to be. We
have made a Good-showing in these past years, and intend to make a still better
one in those to come, so that when we stand to bid our last farewell to the scenes
which have witnes.sed our triumphs, we may Reed the record of the most glorious
class that has ever graced fair Newcomb' s ranks.
Let us turn now to some of the deeds that have made '99 famous. First of
all there was our Freshman Class night. It was entitled, " Echoes of the Season,"
and was our first attempt at that kind of entertainment. It was an undoubted
success, and the only complaint from the audience was, that the play was so good
they would have liked more of it. It had been decided, however, to have this,
our first effort, "short, but sweet," and to wait until our Sophomore year to
show more clearly and emphatically what the class can do in this direction.
There are other wa^-s, also, b^- which we have distinguished ourselves, and
among the foremost of these stands our faculty for getting into "scrapes."
But is it not natural to make mistakes? And is it not true that very often evil
is the result of good and innocent intentions? This was the exact case not
long ago in one of the book-rooms. It may have been too great enthusiasm
over some stud}- (?) on the part of a fair student ! Perhaps it was merely a
desire for a slight "rise" in the world! Mayhaps it was simply a lack of
chairs! Whatever the cause may have been, a sad (?) accident happened, and
she was blamed
!
Well, "evils will right themselves," and some day she with her fellow
classmates will be looked upon as they deserve. For the present, however, we
only wish long life to Newcomb and a prosperous career to Ninety-nine !

CoIIegfe
J-And
it came to pass that, in the j'ear of our Lord 1896, a tribe of the noble
Shebites, wandering from the narrow passes of Mount Academus, arrived and
pitched their tents in the wide and fertile plains of the valley- which is called
Newcomb.
And the high priest which ruled over that region sent messengers unto
them, saying,
" Welcome, O noble kinsmen ! Hnter ye into the land of our forefathers in
peace or in war? "
And the chief of the Shebites lifted up her voice and spake, saying,
" Long live the high priest and the elders of Newcomb, and renowned be their
name among all nations !
"
It was a true report which we heard in our own land of their acts and of
their wisdom ; for now our own eyes do see, and l)ehold ! one-half of their great-
ness and uf their wisilom has not lieeii told. They exceed the fame which
we heard.
Therefore we have come tip that we may learn from the words of their
mouths and increase our understanding.
Then the high priest answered and said unto them,
Ye shall be called no more vShebites but Freshmen ; and the name of your
tribe shall be called 1900.
And he appointed them a habitation and a dwelling.
Howbeit, the Freshmen dwelt in the land of the Sophomores.
Rut the Freshmen had no dealings with the Sophomores.
And there arose a strife between the Freshmen and the Sophomores. And
the sound of the contest was loud in the land.
And the battle waxed strong, and they fought until evening.
And the sound of wailing and gnashing of teeth was heard in the camp.
And the wise men and elders of the tribes consulted together, saying,
Who are these Newcombers who have trespassed and laid waste our lands?
And the high priest answered and said,
Lo ! I have seen a vision , and behold ! 1 900 seated on a throne among the
clouds. And all the tribes of Newcomb shall bow down before them and do
them homage, and they shall be exalted and honored.
For I saj' unto you that there is more hope and promise in them than in
any which hath preceded them.
And they departed, each to his own tent.
And they grew and increased in wisdom and knowledge and waxed great.
And they gained for themselves a name which is a name among the tribes of
which to be proud.
And much more shall be .heard of them hereafter.

The Glendy Burke: An Historical Sketch.
jlEVERAL years before Paul Tulane founded the University that bears
his name, the Glendy Burke Literar3' Society was organized by
exactly thirteen students of the old University of Louisiana. These
thirteen students constituted the charter members of the Society. They met
Januar3' 21, 1880, and organized a society, as appears in the minutes of one of
the first meetings, for the "advancement of the science of elocution."
From the very beginning these hard}^ pioneers labored energeticalh- for the
welfare of the new organization. They met Saturdays from three to five o'clock
p. M., during the first year, after which the hour of meeting was changed to
seven o'clock p. m. Even in the earliest days of the Society, heated disputes
were frequent among the members, and the3^ sometimes assumed so personal a
character that " goodfellowship failed to be restored even after adjournment."
It was of those times that one of their poets sung:
"Ye long to know, I wot, how in those times
Our Warriors battled —Hsten to my rhymes !
Never have stouter heroes come together,
All game cocks—all, with nota sole white feather;
They 'd fight unto the death, and even then
Would sometimes wriggle up and fight again."
The weekly exercises during the first year consisted of onlj- one declamation
and a debate. Orations were introduced during the second year, but they were
voluntary and formed part of the programme onlj' monthly. It was not until
some years later that orations were assigned as a duty to certain members each
week. It sometimes happened even in those early times the debate had to be
dispensed with, owing to the absence of the appointees—an exigency' not
unheard of among generations of Glendj' Burkians within our own memories.
The law of heredity .seems not to have been utterly transgressed in that par-ticular
respect, although this perverse trait has come down to us not without
some of the better characteristics of our ancestral Glendj' Burkians.
Time was when meetings were held only every second week, and it was not '
until the Society had reached its fourth year that it celebrated its anniversary
with appropriate exercises. It was on January 8, 1884, that these exercises
were first held, the programme consisting of an oration by the President, a
declamation, a reading, and a debate.
Such was the beginning, briefly sketched, of the organization whose
progress has extended with that of the University. Its rise and subsequent
advancement are facts forming part of our College history. Such facts can not
but come to us with more than ordinary meaning; for have we not, also, had a
hand in the making of that history ?
Not many anniversaries had been celebrated before invitations to the.se
annual functions, for such they had come to be, were eagerly- sought for by
116
students and friends of the University. And so experienced had the Society
become in givinj^^ these contests that, to judge from its audiences, it cared not
for rival attractions; not even for such as the French opera could afford to risk
on the 8th of January.
But there were hardships in tho.se earlj' daj's no less than now, and former
generations of Glendy Burkians encountered them with brave hearts. The
result of their labors has stood well the test of time. They labored not in
vain, for
"Had they not lived, where had that good ship been.
That ye, O bright-e_ved boys, art sailing in?"
It was in the fall of i8g6 that the spirit of change came over the Society.
The College had alread}' passed a year in its beautiful, new domicile, and oppor-tunities
of greater promise presented themselves in every department of our
college life. Athletics sprang into a position of greater prominence than ever
before; glee clubs were ushered into existence upon the wings of this new
progress ; and new clubs and organizations of various kinds were constantly on
the horizon. The change proved an epoch in our Universitj' Calendar. Tulane
had become a great University . And what was to be done but to adjust our-selves
to these changed conditions? The idea of a " Congress" was suggested,
and within a few months the plan was tried, and finallj' adopted.
The first year under the new plan has been successful. The literary activity
of the students has been
