Notice has just been received at the University of the shipment from Germany of a consignment of about five hundred volumes, donated by the great publishing house of F. A. Brockans in Leipzig. Messrs Brockans are exceedingly liberal men and their donations to public libraries are numerous. Having heard of the energy and push of our institution, and knowing its comparatively small library facilities, it occurred to him that they might confer a similar gift upon us. Through Prof. Carruth, the house made the generous offer, the fulfillment of which will soon place upon the library shelves the largest donation yet received by that department. The shipment is rich in the history and philosophy of German, Italian and Spanish literature. The list value of the books is over six hundred dollars. Buy some of Smith's fishing tackle. A telegram has just been received by Prof. Sterling from the manager of the Nebraska base ball club, asking if a game can be arranged with K. S. U. for next Monday. The Nebraska boys play at Kansas City Saturday and are desirious of crossing bats with our team if possible. Word was immediately wired that a game would be desired and almost any terms would be satisfactory. Consequently, if the weather is favorable, our team will have a chance to test its ability to "play ball" with one of the strongest of western college ball clubs.

Baker Beaten in a Well Played Game Last Saturday. Score 11 to 6. CRIMSO NWINS The University of Kansas continues to hold her supremacy on the base ball field as in everything else. The time has passed when she will ever be defeated in base ball or foot ball by any other institution in the stete. Hence an inter-state base ball league is the inevitable result. Last Saturday the University nine played its second league game, this time with Baker, and again won by superior playing. The game took place at Baldwin. A large crowd of the wearers of the crimson accompanied the team and aided the boys materially with their cheers. The game, while not free from inexcussable errors, still proved very interesting and exciting. Wasser for Baker and Sherman and Kinsie for the University were the opposing pitchers. Wasser, it must be said, is one of the best pitchers in the league but his support is poor, while Baker is very weak in batting. Up to the fifth inning the playing was very sharp on both sides, K. U. having scored two runs. Sherman had struck out six men, four of them while men were on bases. The fifth inning, however, gave Baker a new lease on life. Sherman was rapped for several hits, all bunched, and the team seemed to go to pieces for a few minutes. When the end came Baker had piled up six runs, all she got in the game. The pretty boys who wear the crimson suits, then settled down and made a Sunol finish, retiring Baker in the remaining innings in one, two, three order, and adding eight scores to their list. Kinzie pitched the remaining portion of the game, and did well, having five strike outs. The features of the game were the pitching of Wasser and the catching of Kelsey. Crawford, Simmons and Toomey also played especially well. Aside from the fifth inning our boys put up a splendid game, and clearly showed that they are superior to any team in the league. Score by innings: **Score by Kaling** K· S. U. 0 0 1 0 2 1 2 4 1—11 Baker 0 0 0 0 6 0 0 0—6 Earned runs—K, U., 4; Baker,1. Two base hit, Crawford. Three base hit, Wright. Left on bases, K, U. 7; Baker 12. Struck out, by Sherman 6, by Kinzie, 5, by Wasser 5. Umpire, McVicar of Washburn. Eleven Bakerites sawed the air much to their disgust. NOTES. Capt. Hogg did some hard thinking during the fifth inning. Sherman stole five bases, while Smith, Simmons and Piatt were not far behind his record. It is to be hoped the University will never be unfortunate enough to have a "glass arm" pitcher. That pennant is not far off and with one more strong pull on the 13th of this month it will be ours. The next game will be played in Topeka tomorrow when K, U. and Washburn will meet for the second time. Parties the evening before league games are not exactly conducive to good ball playing, as several of the boys no doubt found out. Baker has lost one game and won one, Washburn has lost and won none and K. U. has won two and lost none. We consequently have a clear lead and will keep it. "Jimmie" Kelsey, the home run hitter, caught a grand game of ball. He had neither a passed ball nor a wild throw and was the coolest man on the team in the ill fated fifth inning. PERSONAL.

The Inter-State Oratorical Contest Won by Miss Nelson of De Pauw, Poston Gets Sixth Place—Challiss Elected President. The oratorical contest held at Minneapolis last Thursday was won by Miss E. Jean Nelson of De Pauw University; she is a member of the Kappa Kappa Gamme fraternity. Miss Nelson is pretty, graceful and modest; her oration was neat, not extravagant in statements nor over flowery. Geyer from Ohio got second place. Poston did well but he could only get sixth place. His delivery was slow but he held the attention of his audience. La Motte of the State University of Missouri was perhaps the best orator of all. He had the best voice, presence, and everything that goes to make up a magnetic orator, he drew ninth place. Sullivan of Washburn, and Challiss, gave Rock Chalk to such an extent that the whole M. U. crowd took it up and gave it with a vim. A banquet was given the next night after the contest during,which the mayor, supreme judge the college president and others gave toasts. Challiss gave a toast of some twenty minutes duration on the "Oratorical Girl." At the election of officers Challiss was elected president, Lyabarger of Iowa, vice president and Murdock of Colorado, secretary and treasurer. The next contest will be held at Columbus, Ohio. An Excellent Opportunity. Mrs. E. B. Topham of this city has been given the exclusive control of the sale of Rand, McNally & Company's Universal Atlas in Douglas, Shawnee, Leavenworth and Claud counties, and will be able to furnish lucrative employment to a few energetic students in canvassing for the work. The high repute of the Atlas renders it a very available selling work. Col. O. E. Learnard and Chanceeller F. H. Snow own copies of the Atlas and have expressed their high appreciation of it. The Chancellor's copy is in every-day use in his office,and as he himself expresses "could not well be spared." County Superintendent Pearis and Mr. Coonrod, president of the Lawrence Business college, recommend the work in the strongest terms. A better book for student canvassers cannot be found. Students wishing to know terms, etc., should apply to Mrs. E. B. Topham, 945 Rhode Island street. Why not take a boat ride? Dolly Graeber will furnish you a boat. 图 Fosters Kids are the Best.
