ly interested in the affairs of government in the college, in so far that when any trouble occurs among the students, individually or collective ly, the college senate is called in session. This senate, thus acting as a medium between faculty and students, is composed of ten men, elected by the classes, and the president of the college. This system has proved very successful.—Coupd Etat.
Offerings of Condolence.
WHAT has become of the Hesperian? We have been waiting patiently for its appearance but it seems to have taken to the brush. You had better watch your mailing clerk and see if he is as careless as we used to be when we were business manager.
WHEREAS, by the decease of our friend and classmate,John D. Claassen, and the loss sustained by those who were nearest and dearest to him: Therefore be it
WHEN a woman is sure of a thing you had better be a little doubtful, when she guesses you may take it for the truth.
Resolved, By the class of '90, Department of Pharmacy, Kansas University; that it is but a just tribute to the memory of the departed to say that in regretting his removal from our midst, we mourn one who was in every way, worthy of our respect and regard.
Resolved, That we sincerely condole with the family of the deceased on the dispensation with which it has pleased Divine Providence to afflict them.
E. W. SMELSER.
Resolved, That this heartfelt testimony of our sympathy and sorrow be forwarded to the parents of our departed friend and classmate by the secretary of the class.
E. W. SMELSER,
S. F. KELLY, Secretary.
Vice President.

The Geological Survey.
The appropriation for beginning a geological survey of Kansas will enable Dr. Williston to organize a field party and to vigorously pursue this much needed work. The party will leave the University about May 1, going to western Kansas, where about half the summer will be spent. A stratigraphical survey of the northwestern part of the state will be made. The latter half of the summer will be spent in the eastern tier of counties, where a thorough study of the economic geological conditions of that portion of the state will be made. The party will be in charge of Prof. Williston and will be made up of University instructors and students. While in the northwest visits will be made to the noted fossil beds in that region, and some rich finds are expected.
It has long been the desire of Chancellor Snow that such a survey should be instituted under the direction af the University, and this beginning is the fruition of his long continued efforts in that direction.
The New School of Engineering.
The recent action of the regents in establishing a school of engineering at the University is an important step forward. By it we are to have a school bearing the same relation to the University, and being still a part of,it that the school of mines is of Columbia,Sibley college of Cornell, Shefield scientific school of Yale and Lawrence scientific school of Harvard.The nucleus of any university is its department of literature science and the arts. Professional courses do not properly belong there. Until now the engineering work in its infancy has been a part of this department. But it has rapidly grown in its demands for more technical opportunities.Now it is set apart with its separate faculty and with better prospect to develop its individuality.
At present it is to be composed of the two distinct courses in civil and electrical engineering, but later mechanical engineering is to be added.
These courses will not be shortened as some think to two years like the law and pharmacy schools, but will be strengthened. The idea is to give young men training in mathematics, draughting, English, French, German and in science such as to provide them a foundation upon which they can build in after life their professional experience and success. This school starts with $16,000 worth of appliances and apparatus.
The distinctive feature of the courses is their practical nature and this action of the regents shows their intention to give the Kansas boys just as good professional schools as similar eastern universities have.
The Memorial Volume.
The Memorial Volume which is to be issued by the Universitg at the time of the Quarter Centennial Celebration next June will contain several features of especial interest. The Volume will be edited by Mr. Wilson Sterling, on recommendation of the Faculty. Prof. Robinson is to write a chapter on Social Life in the University, touching upon fraternities, literary societies, college journalism, etc. The editor will write a general historical skech of the material and scholastic growth of the institution from its inception to the present time. The volume will contain the principal addresses to be delivered at the celebration, and will be embellished with full page photo engraving cuts of the five chancellors of the University.
The well known energy and ability of Mr. Sterling insure the production of a Memorial Volume creditable alike to the University and to the editor.
Will Snow is preparing a monograph of the trypetidal, a little known family of flies. It will contain descriptions of about forty species, new to science, with several plates.
IT is better to be a few minutes early than to be one moment too late.
Kaw River Studio.
It takes TIME to finish photos in a first-class manner, and students wishing their photos in time to distribute among their friends before commencement should leave their orders with MORRIS at once. They will cost no more now than after the rush commences, and you run no risk in getting them on time.
Don't fail to see the NEW PROCESS. The most brilliant photo ever produced on exhibition at the Kaw River Studio.
