UNIVERSITY EXTENION.
The Kansas City Society - Its Objects and Its Lecture Course.
The Kansas City Society of University Extension has completed its permanent organization and announces a plan of its future work.
The purposes of the society are to form an educational association of men and women for the extension of University teaching, to supply lecturers and teachers upon art, science and literature to groups of members of the society, to encourage the voluntary association of students for advanced education, to promote good citizenship bp intelligent instruction in the principles of municipal and state government and by encouraging independent study and investigation thereof, and to develop the systematic use of local libraries and agencies for the intellectual progress of the community.
The Society made arrangements with the University whereby the following offers are made:
"1. Persons holding the degree of Bachelor of Arts from institutions of equal rank with the University of Kansas will receive the degree of Master of Arts upon the satisfactory completion of nine (9) University extension courses of twelve (12) lectures each. These courses shall be accompanied by such study, reading and examination as shall be prescribed by the professors in charge.
2 Persons not holding the Bachelor's degree, upon satisfactory completion of nine (9) courses of twelve (12) lectures each, shall receive a University extension diploma.
The course of lectures is very broad and includes a large number of our professors. The courses are:
1. English Literature-Prot. C. G.
Duran A. M.
"3. Work done under instruc tors from other institutions than the University of Kansas will be accepted upon examination for not more than four of the nine courses necessary for a degree or diploma."

Results of the Mass Meeting of the Students.
A meeting of all the students was held in the cloak Wednesday noon Chancellor Snow arose and present ed this report:
The lecture course wrangle has been settled and all parties have united in the establishment of a representative lecture course. The petitioners and the present managers of the course met Wednesday with a committee of the faculty and arrived at the following agreement:
1. That the present management shall have control of the University Lecture course this year
2. The students shall select a representative from the faculty in whose hands shall be placed an amount equal to the whole amount received from the sale of tickets up to and including the first day the card is open for the first entertainment.
3. If any attraction fails to come and the substitution made is unsatisfactory to any holder of a course ticket, or if no substitution is made, then such ticket holder shall be given a check by the students' representative for a pro rata amount on each ticket for each lecture substituted or failing to be held.
4. All money received from the sale of lecture course tickets over and above the actual cost of the attraction given shall go to a permanent lecture course fund to be placed in the hands of the representelected by the students as named above.
5. This lecture course shall receive the hearty and undivided support of all, to the end that a representative course may be assured for next year by the students.
The report was adopted by a unanimous vote, and now Messrs. Rush, Hudley, Whitman and Brown should receive the hearty support of every student in the University. A motion was then made that the colors of the University be changed to crimson. After several amendments were voted down a vote took place on the original motion which was lost by only a few votes. The meeting then adjourned.
What a Head.
The exotic, extraneous, and superficial ebulitions of editors and nom-de-plumes in certain University journals constrain us to tender the ensui g admonitions: In disseminating acroamatical philosophisms, sciolistic romanticisms, or psychological observations, eschew largifluous platitudinousness, hypocondriacal insipidity and polysyllabic profundity. Asfduously avoid all bombastic psiology, grandiloquent vapidity and facetious lasciviousness. Beware of expatiated conglomerations of flatulency and asinine affections of Laputanism. Embody in your compositions concentrated cogency, co-alescent comprehensivableness, compacted conciseness clarified, intelligibility and veracious vivacity.—Ex.

The University nine met the Haskell representatives at the ball grounds Saturday and took them into camp in an eight inning game by the score of 15 to 5. Raub started in to pitch for the Indians but was knocked out of the box in the sixth inning and Mackey finished the game.
K. S. U. did not present quite her full strength but the following summary will show how much our nine outclassed the Haskells, Score by innings:
K, S. U, 2 3 0 1 0 8 0 1—15
Haskell, 1 2 0 0 0 2—5
Base hits, K. S. U., 9; Haskell 4; errors, K. S. U., 6; Haskell 17.
stolen bases, K. S. U., 5; Haskell 1.
NOTES.
Sugrue was badly off in his umpiring. K, S, U, got the worst of it.
Those circus rings in left field interfere a great deal with the fielding. A ball knocked into that part of the field is sure to result in a base hit or an error by the fielder.
Still Champions.
Haskell has some good players but the nine lacks practice.
The Indian second base man is in the habit of standing on the base line to block base runners. He is liable to get hurt some day.
Chancellor's Reception.
Last Friday evening Snow hall was filled to overflowing with students and members of the faculty who had assembled at the invitation of Chancellor Snow to be present at his annual students reception. Many of the classes attended in a body. The various colors of the classes were conspicuous and the crimson of the seniors was as prominent as the seniors themselves. The professors looked as though they were clothed in coats like unto Joseph's after the classes had succeeded in pinning their colors upon them. The music was furnished by Buch's orchestra. Mrs. Prof. Robinson, Miss Snow and Miss Smith assisted Chancellor Snow in receiving. A most enjoyable evening was reported by all present
The chancellor's reception is now one of the events of the year among the students.
