Hsbley Davis Burt, fl,m,, ELD.

SHLEY DAVIS HURT was born in Petersburg, Va., December 15th, 1834. His
father was of English, and his mother of French ancestry. A mere bo}', at the
death of his parents, he was sent by his guardian to Bottetourt Springs, Va., now
Hollins Institute, for several years. There, by his industry and steady applica-tion,
he was thoroughly fitted to enter Columbia College, Washington, D. C. At
Columbia College, his record for scholarship was unsurpassed, but, after an
attendance of a year, he left this institution, preferring the course of studies
offered by the University of Virginia. He continued his studies at the Uni-versity
of Virginia, receiving the degrees of Bachelor and Master, and while there
he was a member of the Jefferson Literary Society and the Phi Kappi Psi fraternity.
Throughout his life, his allegiance to his Alma Mater was unswerving, and in his reminiscent
moods, nothing afforded him more genuine pleasure than to revert to the happy daj'S of
his student life at the University of Virginia.
During several years spent in Berlin and at Boun-am-Rhein he prepared himself for the
life-work which he had already chosen. Soon after his return from Germany, he married
Mary Bruce Johns, also a Virginian. He held several positions in his capacity as professor in
many institutions throughout the South, one of them being the professorship of ancient lan-guages
in the Florence Weslyan University. At the outbreak of the civil war, he entered
the service of the Confederate navy. He was at one time private secretary to Commodore
Frank Lynch, and afterwards to Commodore Pinckney. His connection with the Con-federate
navy lasted until the close of the war. He then returned to Virginia, and remained
there until 1S69 when he went to Louisville, Kentucky, to accept the Chair of Ancient Lan-guages
in the Male High School. Subsequently, he was principal, a position which he held
until 1883, when he resigned, being called to the presidency of the State Agricultural College
of Florida. In 1885, he was made headmaster of the Tulane High School. In 1894, when'
the Tulane High School was abolished, he was appointed to the Chair of Greek in Tulane
University. This he occupied until his death, caused by a stroke of appolexy, March loth, 1898.
Language cannot convey a true estimate of Dr. Hurt's high moral worth or of the
beauty of his domestic life. He was husband and father in the loftiest sense of the words.
As Headmaster ot Tulane High School and as Professor in the University, his influence with
those who were so fortunate as to come under his control was always for the best, win-ning,
as he did, a place in the hearts of "his boys" that might be envied by any teacher. His
readiness to forgive an offense, his willingness to aid any one in need of assistance, his remark-able
faculty for encouraging the good and discouraging the bad elements in the characters of
young men endeared him not only to his students, but made him, as well, an invaluable friend
to the communit}- in which he moved. While full of humor, he was always dignified; social in
disposition, he was too conscientious in his work to indulge his love of society.
The stud}- of Greek was the great love of his life and his earnest aim was to inspire his
students with a desire to search for its hidden treasures. While he was never ambitious to be
known as an author, yet there remain Greek and Latin manuscripts and many poems, the
fruits ot his intellect.

CLASS history is supposed to relate the bad as well as the good deeds which have
been committed by the class. But it was not in 99's nature to do anything wrong;
we may have had a litttle fun now and then, but as one of our worthy professors
says " they do make a lot of racket but they don't mean any harm by it, they just
can't help it."
Let us go back to the time when we were innocent little fellows— when
everything about College was new and fresh, even the buildings. Those were
glorious old days for '99, especially in mathematics, where we used to have a
regular battle of chalk. We did the "Schercking" act so often that our worthy
Scherck had to "Scherck" us. We had study rooms then, or at least that was the
object of the rooms. To pass away the time and to promote the research for
» knowledge of animals of past ages, an Osteological Club was formed. The
I members became so skillful that they could even predict the future by noticing
I on which side the bones lay. It was indeed wonderful, but the faculty became
W. jealous of their skill and broke up the club.
The usual notice being posted by the Sophs, forbidding us to sport canes, we, with
our peculiar lack of respect for old age, proceeded to disregard the mandate of that august
body. A fight ensued in which we so completely demolished them that when we became
Sophs the Freshies, mindful of our past deed, did not even try to carry canes, but took our
advice not to do so.
We also took quite an interest in athletics,
furnishing several men for the 'Varsity football team,
and putting out a fine class team. In the course
of human events we became Sophs, and we always
conducted ourselves with that sophomoric dignity
which is peculiar to this stage of college life.
Acquitting ourselves so nobly in mechanics that
Prof. Anderson asked several of us to take the exam-ination
over, for he wished a few more such excellent
papers, we passed on to the time-honored stud}' of
chemistry, when one day, having aroused the ire of
gentle Palmy, and our good professor thinking he
would give us a holiday, we marched out of the room
to the tune of "Who Threw the Shot? " In this year
our famous Latin Cavalry was organized, which rode
so well through the fierce onslaughts of Livy, Horace
and other famous generals.
'99 has always been able to boast of its varied
kinds of animals, cranks and freaks of all descriptions.
We have an "Amoeba," that lowest form of animal
life, and a "Tub," in which the "Amoeba" lives; we
are also possessed of three "Niggers," a peculiar kind
of animal which is found in '99 only; then we have a
" Billy Goat " which we rent to the different societies;
a "Black Calf" and a "High Diver with a Broken
Crust" are useful members; a sweet little "Bunny"
23
fiistoryof Class of '99-contmuc(i
and a noble "Buck" are included; a "Svengali" who puts the
class to sleep during an interesting lecture, and last but not least
" Chinee Trep," the class laundryman.
Passing to our Junior year, or the age of "don't care," we
make ourselves a power indeed. Judging from our past experi-ence
in chemistry, a great many of us decided to take biology,
thinking thereby to secure a '
' soft thing. '
' But the time occupied
in that study beginning to lag, Hensen's band was organized
under the graceful leadership of " Chinee Trep," to pass away the
wearisome time. It succeeded so well that the sweet strains of
the "Amoeba" march or the " Hier " two-step could be heard at
all hours. This was our banner year for athletics. With a foot-ball
team which was the pride of the college, and whose reputa-tion
traveled far and wide, and a baseball team which could not be
touched with a ten-foot pole going through the season with-out
suffering a single defeat, we could afford to give away a few
points in the spring games, but it was a very few.
Many a time did "Johnny," while we were trying to have a
little fun, place his hand on his classic brow, and give forth this utterance, " I will say that I
don't intend to stand it;" whenever anyone would answer "hier" to roll call, that frisky
young gentleman would have hanging over his head the threat that he would be made "a
shining example" of, and, what was worse, "Johnny" would bring up the "original
documents " to prove his words by " overwhelming testimony."
Now we come to that time of the career of a college man when he is supposed to put on
more "dignity ;
" to the time when he becomes "a grave and reverend Senior."
Not content with resting on her past achievements, '99 determined one day that she would
start something new. This something new was that the wearing of the regulation cap and
gown, which had never before been known at Tulane. A memorable day was it when the Seniors
appeared in the halls dressed in cap and gown. To say the least, it created quite a sensation,
but the other fellows have finally gotten used to our dignified and magisterial appearance.
'99 has always been considered a wide-awake class, but this is in a small degree due to the
daily nap which we partake of in the "Chamber of Morpheus." The writer could go on
forever, telling of the deeds of '99, how we are going crazy in Philosophy, and how we
"tease" the "only" animal, but the written history of '99 must be
closed, although her deeds will be handed down from generation to genera-tion.
We have learned in civics that the days of States Rights are gone,
so let us unite and give forth that glorious old yell which we love so well:
Rah ! Rah
!
Sis ! Boom ! Ah !
Rah ! Rah
!
Tulane !
Then coming back to ourselves :
Rah ! Rah ! '99 !
Hoop la ! '99 !
Tulane, '99!
Eighteen
Ninety-nine !
Rah! Rah! Rah!
The President is very warm ;
The Deans are just as hot
;
But neither they nor Ninety-Nine
Could find who threw the " shot."

History of tbe €la$$ of 1900
CLASS of 1900 is a peculiar class. It reminds one somewhat of
a circus, for there are in it Frenchmen, Dutchmen and Irishmen;
there are short men, long men, skinny men, but, alas, there are
no fat men.
This strange assortment of men started out this year to make
famous the name of the class which they represented.
The first achievement was to inaugurate the wearing of class
hats, which innovation was immediately followed by the other
classes.
One glorious Saturday afternoon our football team marched
out upon the campus, and, cheered on by their fellow- classmen,
defeated the Seniors on the gridiron. Returning from the campus, the jubilant
members of the Class of 1900 espied the Senior colors hanging from their study-room,
which was not^-in accordance with college etiquette, as we soon showed
them, for in less than five-minutes the colors
had been divided among the members of 1900,
and now doubtless number among their most
treasured relice.
This Class of 1 900 went twice more upon
the campus and twice more they returned vic-torious,
and in due respect 'they are now called
'
' Champions of College. '
'
They are far from lacking in literary
honors. They have worthy representatives
upon the Olive and Blue, the Tulane Collegian
and Jambalaya. A great number of this class
are members of the Glendy- Burke Literary
Society, and if anyone will take the trouble
to go into the Glendy-Burke Hall they will
still hear it echoing the speeches made by the
orators of this learnedjClass.
In history the class is always able to
produce "original documents," and are well
acquainted with "Plutarch," " Liddell " and
"John Fiske."
In chemistry, they are able to compound
mixtures which they defy any chemist to analyize.
the composition and use of " perpetual pills."
They are also well versed in
30
l)i$tory of tbe glass of i^oo-gontmucd
Their French class is not as humorous as it formerly was, as the majority of
the "lame ducks" have discontinued French. There are still some, however,
who get '
' put out on the spot '
' and '
' very big zeros. '
'
In mathematics they perform great feats, with intregals and derivatives, and
are able to pass examinations without opening a book during the term—so they
think—but Professor Smith remembers once when they were fooled.
This class, taken all together, is a jolly and good-natured class, well beloved
by the professors, respected by the Seniors, reverenced by the lower classes,
and, better than all honors and praises, they are looked up to and appreciated
by the Newcomb Juniors.

Class Bistory of m\
'4^fy''4\
N a balmy day of November, in the year of our Lord 1S97, the great class of
1901 assembled for the first time beneath the portals of Tulane. They
came an assorted lot of all sizes and kinds, runts and giants, the men of
words and the men of action. What their object in Tulane was then, is
now, and shall be in the future is an unsolved problem. What they have
4»:^_4^'„y^_^' ^ accomplished as Freshmen and Sophomores we shall tell briefly.
S^i^ l^'W The class of 1901 are heroes and great men—somewhat egotistic, but yet the
-,C^ -^ truthi For a short time after their entrance into college, 1901 was rather green. The
^ij/A j members, however, soon learned college ways, and then quietly asserted their suprem-
Y V acy. The powers that be, recognizing their inability to cope with this new order of
[1 Freshmen, diplomatically agreed that 1901 was supreme. Thus as Freshmen, igoi became the
autocrats of Tulane. They formed an intimate acquaintance with class-cutting, conditions,
and "bones;" taught the then Sophomores lessons in good manners, and ridiculed the pom-pous
and self-important Seniors. They lost a football game through an unavoidable error, but
redeemed their honor as the victors of the Relay race. They won the" Glendy-Burke medal
for elocution; then clearing themselves of conditions, passed the 'exams' and were changed
into "Sophs."
As Sophomores, the class of igoi made a ton of resolutions, and kept them all. They first
determined to bring the Freshmen to a proper realization of their
majesty and dignity. They did it. In the great cane rush between
the Sophs, and the Freshies, in which tbe numbered strength of '02
was double that of 1901, it was decided that 1901 was outclassed,
but by no means defeated. It is true that 1901 lost the inter-class
football game, but balanced that defeat by conquering their ersts
while opponents on the diamond. By this time, the spontaneou-
Freshmen had recognized the invincibility of igot, and acknowl-edged
them as superiors and masters. Thus the first resolution of
1901 was accomplished.
The second resolution of 1901 was to cut class at every oppor-tunity
during the Sophmore year. This has been done, and as a
result the class of 1901 have been admitted to be the class-cutters
'
' par excellence "of Tulane. Daily have excellent chances for cut-ting
presented themselves, and, as the imperious commands of fate,
were eagerly accepted. Hence when a gentleman of 1901 decides
that his presence in any particular study is unnecessary, he quietly
disappears. What he does is a mystery to the Faculty. As this
practice is one of the chief traits of the class of 1901, we deem it a
part of our dutv to enlighten the Faculty somewhat on this point.
Hedecends to the basement, meets a few comrades, proposes agame,
and then concentrates his attention upon the movements of sundry
ivory cubes, until he scents the approach of that inquisitorial body
called the Academic Board, when, realizing that "discretion is the
belter part of valor, " he pockets his "bones," and dramatically
plays the innocent.

Class Bistory of i^oi-eontmucd
Auother thing igoi did as Sophomores was loafing until "exams." Then whenever those
dreaded days, the most detested period of the college-student's life, approached, igoi did some-thing.
They had resolved to pass examinations, and resolution and action are synonyms to
1901. They crammed—crammed for glory. They forgot everything, even the "bones," dear,
sweet little "bones;" replaced their ideal, sophomoric dreams of sudden fame by the rubbish
of technical science and classic lore; ceased to exercise their autocratic powers—did all this,
and for what? To avoid conditions, when bj- the single shuffle of a hand, holding two ivory
cubes—oh ! what would be the fruits of victory ? Yet fate willed it so, and it had to be done.
The Faculty, through motives of safety, made it their care to agree. Thus, aided by cramming,
the decrees of fate, and the consent of the Faculty, 1901 passed every examination. This process
of cramming is peculiar in its effects—it changes, transforms, metamorphoses its subjects. So
with the members of 1901. Whenever they cram, they all change, as far as external appear-ance
is concerned.
Their minds are altered in another way. Unlike other classes, they retain permanently
whatever they cram. In this respect does the great class of 1901 prove their colossal mental
powers, and proclaim themselves "universal makers of history." In the midst of the cramming
for the first Sophomore examinations, the President of the University was himself deceived by
the grave and dignified mien of 1901, and mistook them for Seniors. This is praise, of which
few classes can boast themselves recipients.
A few words about what 1901 did not do. They never fell in love with adjectives, as
former Sophomores have been accused of doing. They did not allow themselves to be puffed
with self-conceit, and assume dignity to which they were not entitled. They never lacked
class spirit, or failed to respond to the demands of college spirit. Whenever a crisis came, the
man of the hour was always a man of 1901.
The members of 1901 have now lived two years of their college life. Thej' are students for
a worthj^ purpose. They are there preparing themselves by higher education for their future
destinies. Two years more, and the goal shall have been reached. Then, when they receive
their sheepskins, and with them the privilege of attaching handles to their names, they shall
not bemoan the misfortune of Tulane in losing them. That duty they shall leave to others.
The words of 1901 shall be little, but their actions great. Individually and collectively, by a
logical use of their disciplined minds, shall 1901 proclaim the greatness of 1901.

IGHTY is the work of a historian ! When, however, it becomes his duty to relate
the valorous deeds of the invincible class of " 3902," both from the magnitude of
her daring exploits and achievements, and from the unexcelled glory of her tri-umph,
he seems like a pigmy attempting the work of giants. Although the class
had made its appearance at Tulane but a short space of time, when already it had
performed feats of gallantry unheard of in the annals of the noble institution
For, hardly had the last yellow fever germs been exterminated by the destructive
effects of the first autumn frost, when, as if by magic, the class was formed. Then,
with that spirit of enthusiasm and adventure which distinguished "02" from the first, it
rapidly organized and elected its officers. Those who were chosen to guide the first footsteps of
its infancy, were: Messrs. D. Kilpatrick, President; L. Wilkinson, Vice-President; p. J.
Kahle, Secretary.
The class was now ready to perform its glorious work. It would, perhaps, have accom-plished
that work unnoticed had not a little incident occurred to inspire its members with self-reliance,
to bring the class as a unit into prominence, and to make it the source from which all
bright and ingenious ideas would flow thereafter.
The incident which was to accomplish so much for " 02," came about in this manner. In
keeping with college customs of old, our sister Sophomore class endeavored to dictate her
terms to those whom she believed composed the tender class of " 02 ;
" moreover, she supposed
that the Freshmen would bow their heads in submission to her slightest wishes. With this end
in view, the Sophs had determined to embroil their sister class in a great rush ; and depending
upon their strength, thev hoped to defeat, and to rule as tyrants over her. They threw down
the gauntlet in token of challenge when they laid in heaps
the books, the hats, and the lunches of the Freshmen in sepa-rate
corners of the latter's studyroom. The gauntlet, how-ever,
was taken up, and the challenge accepted by those who
were believed to be uneducated in college matters, and, it
was thought, required to be initiated thereunto by a grand
class rush.
The challenge being accepted, it now remained for the
presidents of the belligerent classes to make the necessary
arrangements preliminary to engaging in open hostilities.
In his ultimatum the representative of the Sophs forbade
the Freshmen to carry canes on the campus. From this
moment " 1902 " was ready for the fray.
On the day appointed for the nose-tilting ceremony, the
sun rose over a dark and cloudy sky ; a cold, winter rain
drizzled down, changing the field of action into a muddj'
pool ; and, now and then, the roar of distant thunder was
heard, as in announcement of the coming event. Notwith-standing
this, nothing could daunt the spirit of the con.
testants, and as the valiant Freshies formed into columns of
eight, with the cane-bearer in the second column, and faced
their opponents, their eyes glowing with the noble spirit of
revenging the honor of their class, the very air seemed per-meated
with the essence of courage.
42
Class BISlOry of 1902—eominued
Then, the signal is given ; on come the two classes with the determin-ation
to conquer ; with a clash they meet ; such is the impetus of the action
that both factions are thrown into confusion. The columns now break and
a hand-to-hand conflict ensues. It is an agglomeration of human heads, of
human arms, of human legs, of pieces of torn clothing, of tufts of hair of
bloody noses, mingled with the cries and shrieks of those trampled under
the feet of the strugglers. The fury of the contestants and their ardor grow
more and more, like during a tempest, when the mighty waves of the ocean
in their furious course onward, sweep all before them, beat upon the rocks,
and are scattered and broken ; then, foaming with anger, they are blended
into a vast body quivering and convulsing with the last remnants of ire as it
gradually dies out into nothingness.
In ten minutes it was all over. Two Sophomores and five Freshmen
were holding firmly to the remains of the cane. The Freshies were victo-rious
! Their honor was sufficiently satisfied ! It had been a glorious fight
and a more glorious triumph ! The echoes themselves reverberated the tri-umphant
cries, and the world became aware that the Freshmen of " 1902 "
had defeated a Sophomore class.
Our sisters of Newcomb "02 " hearing the news, were not long in sending
atrophy of victory, a cane ornamented with the combined colors of the "black
and blue," and the "crimson and white " as a token of their admiration for
the brave. When was such honor ever received by an}- class before this !
^=^tKir With the football season, the class added fresh laurels to its fame.
Though unacquainted with the athletic grounds, in comparison to its competitors, hard train-ing
made it again successful to encounter its old rival on the gridiron. A large assemblage
witnessed the defeat of " 1901." By so doing, it defeated "99," and only by accident took
second place. So excellent were the players who won these games for "02 " that three of them
were chosen as members of the 'Varsity team. After so many and so great honors, it seemed
almost impossible for a single class to attain greater fame ;
'
' 1902, '
' however, reached the acme
of her glory when it carried off the palm in a debate against the ei'udite Seniors.
Such were the deeds of the " crimson and white." Winning the victory in a great class
rush ; coming almost within grasp of the football championship ; obtaining the decision in a
debate against tremendous odds—these are things to be proud of. And, when the years have
rolled by, when reminiscences of college life will fleet across our memory, we will always look
back with pride to the days when we were the " Freshies of '02."

T is in truth a strange thing, and if you had told it to us four years ago, we would have
shaken our wise, verdant little heads, and said you must be joking; but now it
comes to us as a reality, that the last echo of our Freshman yell has scarcely died
away, and the opening notes of our Senior Swan Song seem almost to mingle with it,
so short does the time appear between them, so doubly short, when the fast crowding
scenes of Freshman scrapes and Sophomore " diableries " of Junior days and Senior
triumphs and dignity, rise ghostlike before us.
It is all too familiar, the history of that band of nine, that the only way too add a
tinge of novelty to it is to tell it backwards. The last time I was with the assembled
force they were wending their way across Audubon park, from a lecture at Tulane,
their hats pulled down over their e3'es, their minds torn with conflicting emotions,
which the following will explain: First, visions of soda water at the end of the walk;
second, sorrow at the loss of their beloved " Beb^ Jumeau," who had come up with them in
the car and whom a cruel motorman had put off at the wrong corner; third, a guilty con-science,
when it occurred to them that a certain class room, which should have been illumined
by their presence, was sadly vacant, and that a mournful professor was silently regarding a
row of empty chairs and nursing a mighty rage, soon to burst on their occupants' unoffend-ing
(?) heads. A remark was made during the progress across the park which struck me as a
graphic bit of description. One of them said, "What a crowd up there! They just put their
old hands over their faces and giggled." She is the one who afterwards braved the anger of the
mournful professor mentioned above, with a "Qui mademoiselle, qu'est qui dit?" which so
convulsed us that our lives were seriously endangered. It is the same spirit animating the
whole which has caused Napoleon to meet his second Waterloo, the female Solon to acknowl-edge
a superior in justice, Frederick Barbarossa to regret his return to earth and Queen
Elizabeth to take a back seat in questions of etiquette. And lest this last may seem some-what
enigmatic, let me explain. During a solemn council held in the upper study hall one
day, the members of said council sitting in various graceful postures on the table, they
54
'99—(Kominucd
came to the conclusion that it believed in transmigration of souls and that for four consecutive
years it had been under the rule of the famous characters mentioned above, and with the
above named results—also that it was ready to go through it again.
It is the same spirit pervading throughout, which in the near futuie will supply libraries
with the great works, " Herbivora, or Horn
Bearing Animals," by Miss vSimon; "The
French Language Revised," by Miss C. Loeber;
"How to Appear Learned," by Miss G. Kerr;
"Why You Should Love Your Professor," by
Miss Joor; " How to Appear Bored Without
Cause," by Miss Denis; and numerous others
now in progress and nearing completion. But
I am afraid I am getting too previous, and,
unless I confine myself to the past, my task
will prove well nigh endless.
I will pass rapidly over, only mentioning
our spirit of unselfishness, which saw fit in our
Junior year not to treat a good-natured public
to a specimen of acting, which might make _
them dissatisfied with the theatrical attractions
the)' have to put up with at other times, our
glorious May Day festival at the end of the .
Sophomore year, which cast a green color over
the college which hasn't quite worn off )-et. Our
great old April Fool of '97, when we made
things hum in a waj* we haven't tried since, our
" Echoes of the Season " of Freshman days, which I am sure taught people some new things
about the way echoes ought to behave, our green little Freshman period when we
thought it was a crime to cut gym., when — but no, I really and truly can't give way
to people like that. It's all right if you want me to tell you about what we did when we got
old enough to understand things, but, before that, my orders are to keep it dark.
And so I now have '99 knocking at the doors which opened to them four years ago to let
them in for the first of the four acts of their college—comedy, traged}', farce, what? I know
not what to call it. But, whatever it is, it has been for each one of us a thing into which we
have entered with all our heart, and where, I am sure, we will leave some of our heart when
we go. We may not acknowledge it now, we may not even know it. It will be a long time
before an encore will be heard before the dropped curtain of our college career, but when it
does come I hope some dim echo of it may reach us all and bring back to each the times when
'99 was young and played pranks and got chased by Maggie.
But that time is not yet and so, if Willi-yam won't look so bored, and Rosalie and Ger-trude
will stop admiring themselves in the mirror, if "Mary" will stop thinking about that 100
she got on her German quiz, and Ma)' will give us a rest about Latin, if Corinne has no other
engagement, and if Nellie isn't playing a scientific game of tennis, if Louise and Bertha are
not making purchases from one of "Italy's fair daughters," let us all join hands and sing
" Auld Lang Syne " with as much vigor and fun and spirit as ever we sang our first Freshman
song or yelled over
Three times three makes nine,
Double nine makes us;
We're the class in college,
Makes the biggest fuss !

history of i^oo
'm^n^'^^
SLEPT, and, lo, I dreamed tbat I had died;
e waters of the Styx rolled b3' my side.
All mystified, I stood upon that shore,
Where souls depart—depart to see no more
The joyous light of day. The gloomy ghosts
Of ancient heroes crowded 'round in hosts.
And asked of me what business had I there;
Why came I to that quiet region, where
Naught but the famous could have right to dwell.
And dumb I was, for I did know full well
That no great deed my life on earth had wrought.
But then I touched my class pin! Naughty-naught!
Her wond'rous works should be my sure defense!
"Well," said one shade, " now give us evidence
That Naughty-naught deserves a little place
In gloomy Hades; by her fame efface
Your littleness." I told them then the truth;
How my brave class had, in her early youth.
Evinced the most extraordinary powers;
No fear had she, but e'en in Freshman hours
Talked boldly in the library and hall.
And often suffered what was deemed a fall
57
fiiStOry of 1900 continued
By Mrs. R and others of her kind,
Who had a mulitude of faults to find.
But we well knew 'twas just another block
Toward building up a monument of rock
—
That is, our wills! Our aim was to fight well!
"Ah," cried the ghost of Caesar, " ere she fell,
Rome was the same! My vote is, let her in! "
" Go on," said others; then did I begin
To tell of the great wonders which we did.
" Oh, we were ever very wise," I said;
" No problem met us but with steady brain
We solved it; ev'ry mystery is plain
To Naughty-naught! " Cried Socrates, " I pray.
Admit this maiden; she will, I dare say,
Illumine many points now dark to me.
And tell me what is what and what's to be.
"
" And then, such dramatists we were," I cried,
" Two plays we have enacted; all decide
No better have been writ or ever will! "
"That cannot be," groaned Sophocles, " but still
She may come into Hades; but now tell
More virtues of the class you love so well.
"
" We have artistic talent in our band!
Oh, wond'rous beauties grow beneath the hand
Of sev'ral of our number! " Pheidas here
Bowed low his snow-white head; " 'Tis well, my dear;
I am for \-our admittance."
" Music sweet
Holds us as devotees before her feet;
With their pure strength, the voices from our hearts
Seem quite to dim the glow of Orpheus' art!
And on the earth we shine, a blazing light;
With wisdom's lamp we vanish all the night
Of ignorance! " "And who is in this class
That seems in ev'rything quite to surpass
All others? " asked a ghost.
" Our Edith, see !
Our gracious queen, and loving subjects, we!
She is our president; in all she leads;
Her head is clear; her government exceeds
In equity and peace e'en Solon's laws! "
" That may be," sighed old Solon; then a pause.
" In beauty we are legion. Starry eyes
Has our Jeannie, which a god might prize;
Then Anna, with a hand like lily white;
And stately Leila; and then, dark as night,
5S
filStOry of 1900-ConcIu(Jc(I
Yet fair as rose leaves, comes our pretty lass,
Our Alma; Mabel, whose red lips surpass
In dimples Cupid's; Kath'rine, tressed with gold
And sweet her heart as face; and then, behold,
Dear Bella—by her charms she captures all,
None can resist her; then comes Leigh, so small
And dainty; next is Jessie, one whose mind
Is made for science; ages cannot find
A wiser girl than Jessie. Now is heard
The sweet low voice of Mildred, like a bird;
Reading or singing, how we love her tones!
And fair-haired Nora; Miriam, who owns
That none in College can surpass her weight,
But she is worth her bulk in gold, we state;
And now our genius, actress, poetess,
Elizabeth; then Callie has no less
Distinction on the stage; her wit's renowned,
Originality's her forte; then crowned
By love from all of us comes Mary dear,
Our gentle maiden; and the list ends here."
" And what are you? " one sad shade murmured low.
"H'm," snapped old Xanthippe, " you are, I know.
The braggard of the class! To blow your horn.
That seems to be your passion! Sure's I'm born,
You are naught else! " Said I, "So let it be!
But since I boast my class and not poor me,
And all I say is true and only half
Of her real virtues, and she is the staff
Of Newcomb's greatness—why, 'tis honor great
To be her herald, humbly let me wait
On her commands."
" Oh, do come in! " then cried
All ghosts of Hades. Reverent, mystified,
They fell before my feet, and, meek, implored
For me to live among them, and adored
Me, since I was a member of a class
Of such far fame!
But now my dream did pass,
And left me just a living, breathing soul,
Naught but the part of a most perfect whole.
In Hades shone I by reflected light.
Oh, may it ever be my great delight
To sound the glorious praises forth alway
That deck with gladness 1900's way?

jE THE class of 'oi feel called upon to relate our history, fraught with its many
trials and crowned with its numerous victories.
Our springing into existence two short years ago may not have been an
event in the history of the world, but it certainly was an auspicious moment
for the members of 'or, and for "oo also, if nof for the world in general.
We came from our homes, we fourteen damsels-some from the country,
others from cities—to a place whose reputation for "loving kindness" was
doubtful in the extreme. We knocked timidly at the portals of Newcomb,
trembling the while over our anticipated debut into college life. Our fears,
however, were soon dispelled by the warm and hearty greetings (?) of our
sisters of '99. Indeed, ever since, we have moved under the careful surveillance of our sisters
who are constantly on the alert to prevent our committing grave errors, and to guide our foot-steps
into paths of peace (???)
Our entrance into college was marked by our
unusually quiet demeanor and modest, downcast looks.
But away with these days ! They have passed, for we,
having served our apprenticeship honorably and cred-itably,
so far, now walk with stately mien and breathe
the free air of liberty.
Although it may not be generally admitted by the
other classes that ar are the most brilliant in the college
—and, perhaps, we ourselves do not press our claims
urgently enough — we have certainly gained laurels
which an}' class might be justly proud to own.
To be sure, we may uot have distinguished our-selves
in musical attainments, but has that been neces-sary
? Have not our praises been sung /or us, long
and loud, throughout the halls of Newcomb ? '
As regards our athletic achievements, does not
Newcomb count among her champions, the members
64
^vz/P-C^v-;
~"^
€laS$ RIStOry of I^Ol—continued
of '01? How could she consider us in any other light after the outcome of that memorable
game of "Newcomb" played on May twentieth, eighteen-ninety-eight, by 'oi vs. 'oo. The
combatants entered the field, each inspired bj- the confidence of success. The contest was
long and fierce. The spectators stood breathless with excitement. For a long while it was
thought that the history of 'oo would end with that day. All things worked together for good
in their behalf, however, and their untimely end was averted by our charitable promises to
allow them an opportunity of retrieving themselves the following year. Among other
encouraging words, we called to their minds the familiar adage, "We learn more by our
defeats than by our successes," and, on the hypothesis that this proverb was true, praised them
for having made at least one great stride in their education.
And now as we are about to approach the stone that marks the completion of half our four-years
course, we look back with pride upon the reputation we have made in the first half, and
tremble lest we should spend the second half in unmaking the said reputation. What will become
of us we cannot tell. My task was to write the historj- of 'oi, not to speculate about its future.
It can do no harm, however, to hope that henceforth the pathway of the "Naught}'
Ones(?)" will be strewn with flowers, and that the name they leave behind will be like "foot-prints
on the sands of time"—a standard and a guide for all future classes.

REAT was the rejoicing on the morning of the thirty-first day of Octo-ber,
eighteen hundred and ninety-eight. Music sounded throughout
the halls of Newcotnb, and everything was in a state of excitement.
But, why all this jollity? A new child was born, who had been
christened the " Class of 1902." Everyone recognized in this child a
future leader and ruler. "Who can wiite the history of a child yet so
;? What is there to write? Our answers are invariably, "Nobody," and
"Nothing." Still,pages—naybooks—might be filled with
the praises of this class, with its brave deeds and bold exploits ;
records of many enemies and " bugbears " conquered. Enemies in
the way of jealousies—for this class had some ill-wishers on account
of its success; " bugbears " in the way of very short history lessons,
most interesting German periods, and very quiet and peaceful
French classes.
As time went on, this class of 1902 became stronger and stronger,
and more determined to carry out its duty as leader of the college.
So things went on smoothly for a while and nothing but success
attended the efforts of the class. However, this prosperity and
success seemed, all at once, to be on the verge of a downfall. News
was brought of the approach of a mighty monster—a powerful
enemy of this little band, one who would do all in its power to
overthrow from its high place the Class of 1902. Great was the
fear and trembling, for all knew that the opponent must be met and
conquered. This frightful monster was called—Examination. Our
worthy band polished and sharpened its mental weapons—weapons
of the sharpest, and often of the most deadly kind, and prepared
to meet the enemy who was so universally feared and detested.
At last, the fatal day was at hand. The huge monster in all his hid-eousness,
was met and — all glory! —conquered! 1902 then'
calmly and quietly took its way into a new country called the
68
Class Bistory 1902—continued
"Winter Term." As the class had so distinguished itself in its encounter with this hated
enemy, it decided that it should have some sign or symbol by which it might be recognized
by the admiring world. Each member then appeared in a light blue and black cap. At once,
all other classes followed this excellent example, and adopted little caps of different colors. This
imitation showed the recognition of the vast superiority of 1902 over other classes. Our little
band organized itself into a compact body and spared no efforts to live up truly to its noble and
cherished motto: " Excelled by none! "

HE history of Jambai^aya of Tulane University is one of suc-cess
and prosperity. When in 1896 the student body of our
University became aware that an Annual was to make its
' appearance in their midst, the greatest curiosity and interest
was aroused, and the students were on the gut vive as to what
would be the success of the venture. There were some mis-givings
and some doubts expressed, but at last the day arrived
when Mr. Hardy Walmsley, the business manager of the first
Annual Tulane ever published, began to distribute the neat
and attractive-looking volumes. The editors had good reason to
congratulate themselves, and, moreover, they received the con-gratulations
of thepublic; this was in 1 896.
The first annual only served to whet
the appetites of the students for a taste of the second, which
appeared in 1897, ably edited by Mr. R. S. Vickers,
who well filled the chair of his predecessor, Mr. Albert
Phelps. The "lusty, self-reliant young hopeful," unloosed
from the apron-strings of its parents, spoke quite loudly in
its own behalf, and in clear sentences, heralded to the world
the achievements of Tulane University for 1897.
Eighteen hundred and ninety-eight gave to the colle-giate
world, " no longer a tender infant, nor yet the jovial
child, but a sturdy youth, full of hope and courage for the
future," as the fond parents called the third Annual of Tu-lane.
The volume upheld the reputation which Jambalaya
had gained for the past two years, and gave great promise
of what could be expected in 1899.
Therefore, Jambalaya has brought great credit upon
Tulane University, and is a just tribute to the progressive-ness
and industry of the students of our college.

Culane golkgian
n Brier l)lsforv
HE Tidane Collegian derived its existence from its prede-cessors,
the Rat and the Topics. The Rat and the
Topics, or the Gazette, each claim priority. However
this may be, since authorities diiTer, we can safely say
that these pioneer efforts in journalism at Tulane
wielded a great influence over Tulane affairs.
The Tulane Collegian made its appearance in
December, 1891. It was a bi-monthly magazine, with
Mr. Chas. Rosen as editor-in-chief and Mr. H. Newman manager.
The Rat was published for a short while after the appearance of the Colle-gian,
but the two boards soon passed into one, and the worthy
Rat passed into history.
The Collegian has been published continuously ever since,
serving as the literary representative of Tulatae University.
From its first appearance, the Tulane Collegian had been published
bi-monthly until the beginning of the season 1896- 1897, when,
owing to the great energy and enterprise of its editors, the Colle- \
|
gian was changed into a monthly magazine, and was so published]
during the entire year.
The board of editors of the seasons 1897- 1898 ^'^^ 1S98-1899
have found it impossible to publish the magazine monthly, and
have been publishing the Collegian for the past two years
bi-monthly, as formerly.
The Collegian at present is in a flourishing condition.

LIVE AND BL UE, the highl}^- prized weekly paper and official organ
of the students of Tulane University, began the second year of its
life with the brightest of prospects, both financial and otherwise.
The Senior Class members of last year having resigned their posi-tions,
and having thereby turned over the welfare of the paper to
somewhat less experienced though hardly less capable underclass-men,
those gentlemen, with their characteristic sagacity and fore-sight,
chose Mr. F. L. Kohlman, editor-in-chief; Mr. Sidney Lewis,
managing editor, and Mr. Paul Jahncke, business manager. Know-ing
the great love of some of the editors for the great American doctrine of the
freedom of the press, and fearing numberless altercations on this account, and
thinking it best to have one man to settle these for the Board, they chose also a
fighting editor, who accepted the position only on condition that his name should
not be made public, and for reasons which are obvious he requests the writer of
this article also not to mention it-
Since every other department of Tulane is advancing, the college paper
would be an unspeakable anacronism were it in any —/4^''~^''^4Hj*.,*-
way antiquated or inferior. And so far from this is it, .^^f^JbSjii
that it is recognized as one of the foremost college pub
lications in the country. Its editorials
are altered and reprinted by the less
brainy and less prolific editors of other
college papers; its jokes help to fill many
an exchange department; and its poems,
sometimes witty, sometimes philosoph-ical,
sometimes ironical, sometimes over-flowing
with love, have often roused the
jealousy of our rivals.
128
Oliwe and Blue continued
Yet, in all this glory and prosperity, 0/ive and Blue cannot avoid occasional
misfortunes, and those of this year will probably be greater than any heretofore,
from the fact that the learned and industrious Seniors will soon, according to the
established rule, hand in their resignations. The paper will fall into the
hands of its new keepers, and green Freshmen will then take their places, to
burn midnight oil writing editorials, more midnight oil writing jokes, and to
bring wrinkles to their fair young foreheads and poison to their blood with fuss-ing
and fuming with the printer.
lyong might I dwell and much might I say on this peerless Board of Editors,
yet I shall not. The picture on the next page speaks more than I can write.
In Kohlman's strong and dignified visage, in Trepagnier's stern look, in Lewis'
majestic bearing, in Goldstein's humorous countenance can be seen whence
came the strength, the independence, the dignity, the pleasant humor of Olive
a7id Bhce of 'gS-'gg.

TTjT present, there is in the University no more potent influence for good, no more enthn-
W^ siastic and loyal body than the Tulane Alumni Association. Under the broad adminis-
/ I tration of its able and interested President, it has extended its field and increased its
membership and importance to such an extent that it has become a reliable and steady aid to
the students, in whose enterprises it is ever ready to lend a helping hand, as well as wise
counsel. The noblest encomium has been spoken when we say that to this association alone
is "Tulane Night" due, and that it was largely instrumental in making "Founders' Day"
the success which it was.
