As a result of the recent war between Japan and China, a university and preparatory school are to be established at Tien-Tsin. Plans for the university were begun ten years ago, but the whole scheme was in danger of falling through, till the recent war finally brought it to a successful issue. The university will be under government control, and will have a competent corps of foreign professors. Mr. C. D. Tenney is the first president. He was formally a tutor to the sons of Li Hung Chang. The latter, with other officials, has donated money with which a building has been erected.
