Kansas Academy of Science. Lawrence is fortunate in securing a meeting of this association here this year. It was established more than twenty years ago by some of the scientific men of the state. In those days in meant a great love of science for one to keep such an association in running order. The names of Parker, Snow, Mudge, Savage and Frazer are familiar to those who know the earlier history of our state. Some of the men are gone, but others have come to fill their places. A few of the older members of the Academy and many of the younger ones are with us this week. The program includes an interesting address by Pres. Failyer, a reception by the Science club of the University on Thursday evening and an exhibition of lantern and microscopic slides on Friday evening. During Thursday and Friday the members of the Academy read papers upon a great variety of topics. We have not space to give the full program. The following are suggestive of the subjects treated; An Electrical Hygrometer; Periodicity in Plants; Notes on Sugar Beets;Kansas Salt Marshes;A Comparison of Preservative fluids for museum use; Civilization of the Mound Builders; Radiation of Heat from Foliage; Kansas rolling plants; Evolution in Leaves; Structure of Kansas Chalk; Experiments on the Propogation of Disease among Chinch Bugs; On the Nutation of Sunflowers. Among the men who are in attendance may be noted, Profs. Kellerman, Failyor, Popenoe and Graham, of Manhattan; Profs. Dinsmore and Kelly, of Emporia; Dr. Thompson and Prof. Cragin, of Topeka; J. R. Mead and Prof. Carton, of Ottawa; Robert Hay, of Junction City, and R. J. Brown, of Leavenworth. A number of ladies are also in attendance. The Science club gave a complimentary reception in Snow hall last night to the visiting members. This reception has usually been an important feature of the annual meeting, as it affords the members an opportunity to meet one another and compare notes. All the odd moments at the command of the visitors are spent in looking through our collections, laboratories, museums and shops. The people of the city show their appreciation of our guests and of the scientific side of our institution by cheerfully entertaining them in their homes. Special mention should be made of the lantern exhibitions this evening in the chapel. As the Science club wants the students to enjoy this entertainment with them, it has been decided to hold this, the last session of the Academy, in the Chapel at 8 o'clock. The Glee club promises some of their choice selections and altogether a very enjoyable evening is anticipated. The Topeka Capital says that nearly every student of Washburn who voted, voted the straight republican ticket. AMUSEMENTS. "ALONE IN LONDON." "Alone in London" began its annual engagement in Kansas City at the Midland theater yesterday. The long life of this popular meodrama testifies to its merit. The company headed by William De Shetley, is a capable one and the scenic features interesting. The Baltimore Morning Herald, of Sept. 2, 1890, says: The performance given last night at the Temple Theatre was William De Shetley's melodrama "Alone in London." The house was crowded many being turned away for want of room. The play is thrilling, with many exciting scenes, the best of which is the old sluice house at the end of the third act.
