--- New Spring and Summer Samples at Davies, the Tailor. See Him before Ordering Your New Suit. FRUSTING. What are churches, what are creeds? They are only human needs. Till the race of man has risen From its narrow vaunted prison, Men will wrangle and dispute When the seraphms are mute. But I trust in future time Man will reach a peerless prime, When the darkness will be riven And a clearer light be given, That will usher in the day Of the pure and perfect way. Though I know not when and where, Yet I cannot but declare That the crowning of the ages, And the hope of ancient sages, Surely will at last arise Bright and fair on mortal eyes. SNAP SHOTS. It was at the recent rendition of a home talent performance and the little girl beside me was brimful of questions and comments. As the climax of the third act was reached she could restrain herself no longer. Leaning over toward me in a stage whisper she asked, "Don't hugging and kissing on the stage count?" She looked as beautiful and guileless as a fairy, as she left the slender youth waiting for her in the hall. "Just wait till I get my wraps, Adonis," and a contented smile lit up his boyish face as he leaned against the casement. As I stood in the doorway wonder ing why I was never in this manner favored, I saw that same innocent maiden emerge from the lower entry with another but handsomer man. He was a small black, little fellow, about as broad as he was long, and eager expectancy beamed forth from his round, chubby face, as he rolled his white eye-balls and dis played an expanse of glittering ivory. Approaching a knot of students, standing on the depot platform, he said, "You fellers can't play no ball, 'less I go' long. Lend me "two bits?" Well, he played Mascotte that day, and it is needless to add that we won the game. Business Manager's Notice. The Courier has often before threatened to stop sending the paper to delinquent subscribers, and this plan will be put into practice after the next issue. Things are getting interesting now, with the base ball season just opening, Field day approaching and the daily edition of the Courier during commencement week, and no one can afford to be dropped from the list at this time. If you can't pay now, let us know and we will give you time; but our subscription list is to be revised May 1st, and those who do not make satisfactory arrangements before that time will be dropped from the list. So you will know how to account for it if you fail to receive your Courier after the 1st of May. If you wish something pretty in new spring Hats go to the new millinery store, 845 Massachusetts street. Try Shane for a good photograph. Unity Club Prizes. The prizes for the best production on "She Stoops to Conquer" were awarded last Friday evening to Messrs. Menet, O'Brien and White. Mr. Menet, who was awarded first prize has been here in school but a few months; he is taking a preparatory law course. Mr. O'Brien needs no introduction, nor Hervey White. They were given second and third prizes respectively. Second Tour. The Glee and Banjo club has made quite a name throughout the state. Mr. Rush is in receipt of numerous applications for dates as soon as they can be given, the latest applications being from Kansas City, Kan., Hiawatha and Frankfort. It is not probable that any of these cities can be given dates, however, this season as it is now too late to arrange a third tour. The second tour will include Wamego, Burlingame, Osage City and Ottawa, May 18 to 22 inclusive. Meanwhile some new selections will be learned. It is earnestly hoped that the club will comply with the almost unanimous wish of the students and give a concert on Friday June 3, at the Opera House, as has been suggested.
