CATALOGUE FREE. A SURPRISE. Baker Wins the Doubles in Tennis. Last Monday afternoon a small but enthusiastic crowd of Baker students could be seen taking their way to the West Lawrence tennis courts with the expectation of seeing their representatives ingloriously defeated in tennis. But, oh! what a surprise! Their players were in such good condition and put up such a strong game that the K. U. boys were not in it. The score of each of the five sets was 6-4, Baker winning the 1st, 4th and 5th and K. U. the 2nd and 3rd. Kane and Toomey represented Baker and Sherman and Alden K. U. A College Republican Club. A college republican club was organized Saturday night at an enthusiastic meeting of students in K. of P. hall. The object of the club is the discussion and consideration of the principles underlying the different political parties, believing that the open discussion of all questions affecting the people from a social and political standpoint should be the object of every citizen. Patriotism and not partisanship is the motto of this club. A permanent organization was affected by the adoption of a constitution and bylaws, and the selection of J. A. Rush, president. E. E. Hopkins, vice president; W. H. Piatt, secretary; W. W. Reno, treasurer, W. Kinzie, sergeant-at-arms; Rush, Ellis and Steele executive committee The club has issued invitations to John J. Ingalls, Governor Foraker and other prominent speakers to deliver addresses in the city under the auspices of the club. Lawrence, or the state of Kansas, or somebody, ought to construct a street railway connecting the town with the University, or build a dormitory and boarding house on the top of Mount Oread. It is hard enough to climb the hill of knowledge without toiling up the slopes of a miniature mountain every day. —Kansas City Star, The first literary number of the Washburn Argo-Reporter will be issued today.

It must be cheering news to Massachusetts farmers, and especially to those living near the infested districts, to learn from the gypsy moth commission that there is a gradual drawing in of the boundaries where the caterpillars are to be found this year. None have been found in Marblehead or in Charlestown and but few in Beverly, Lexington and some other towns, and in those places where they are not widely distributed but a few are found, which indicates that the natural enemies, birds, parasites, etc., have destroyed either the eggs or the young caterpillars.—Lewiston Journal. The highest mortality in the police department of New York city last year was among the surgeons, three of whom died during the year. Only two roundsmen and two sergeants died, the total number of deaths being forty-eight. One reason why the death rate in the department in so low is that the officers are retired after twenty years' service at their option, or for age.
