LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SEPT. 19, 1890.
C. E. Street, a "rustling" student of fore, was noting the changes and improvements in the University last Wednesday.
Carl Phillips, a graduate from the pharmacy department of last year, has entered the collegiate department as a special student.
Hervey White will not return to school this year. Having secured through Prof. Snow the position of assistant Geologist in the United States survey in New Mexico,
The Freshman German class is so large that it has been divided into two divisions, Prof. Carruth taking one division at nine o'clock and Mrs. Carruth the other at twelve. Several other changes in the schedule have been made on account of conflicting studies.
If one would witness the magical transforming power of paint, paper and plaster he should visit the old building. The collegians may well envy the students of Law, Music and Art in their new and attractive quarters. A force of men are busy at work grading for a walk between the two University buildings, which when it is finished, will make a very pleasant promenade.
One of the busiest men in the faculty in the past week has been Mr. Kellogg. His services seemed to be in demand everywhere. He is so well acquainted with the University and its work that he always has an assuring answer for every question. His business air and his obliging manners have called forth many expressions of praise and commendation from the students. The addition of Mr. Kellogg to the faculty was certainly a wise one.

All students of the University are cordially invited to attend the golden rod social given by the society of Christian Endeavors of the Baptist church this evening at the church.
A bible class especially for young men and women meets every Monday evening at the United Probsyterian church. This class is conducted by the C. H. Strong and it is quite certain that the class will be both interesting and instructive as Rev. Strong is especially fitted for such work, students will do well to go one evening and see for themselves.
Mr. J. A. Mushrush leaves tomorrow to accept a position on the staff of the Kansrs City Journal. Mr Mushrush will push rapidly to the front in the newspaper work as he has done at K, U.
On Wednesday a notice was posted on the bulletin board to the effect that a purse containing forty-one dollars had been lost, and that the finder would please to leave the same at the office. It appears that the loser is a poor, but earnest and ambitious colored man who was intending to take a preparatory medical course in the University. But his loss, unless he is fortunate enough to regain it, will compel him to abandon the course and perhaps shut him out of the field of great usefulness. Among such a crowd of liberal students, a worthy young man, even though colored, who is earnest and anxious to succeed, ought not to have his prospects blighted on account of a few missing dollars. If one hundred students will donate from twenty-five to fifty cents, the man will be reimbursed. Several have already signified their willingness to assist. Let us help the needy student and he will never forget us.
Things in General.
There are some things that are hard to classify even in this day of scientific knowledge, when every thing must be done according to a prescribed rule. The constant reader soon learns to scan the headlines of a newspaper, and by them he judges whether or not there is anything in the columns demanding his closer attention.
There are many things about the University deserving of notice that it would be hard to classify in a college weekly. The object of this column is to discuss some of these things. One thing deserving the attention of the students of the University just now is the fact that one of the best friends the University ever had is a candidate for governor of our state. No one has ever shown himself a better and truer friend of the University than ex-Gov. Robinson. He stood by the University in its early struggle for existence. He gave of his means to start it, and never since has he flagged in his devotion to the K. S. U. The fact that he is on the Democratic ticket should have nothing to do with the matter. The students show their appreciation of Gov. Robinson's friendship for the University by giving him a hearty endorsement. And should he be elected there would be no uncertain tone in his messages to the legislature concerning our school this winter.
The removal of some of the schools to North Collegeis certainly a step in the right direction. There is certainly no longer the necessity of keeping up the high school appearance by having everything under one roof. We are becoming a University in the fall sense of the word. No longer the professors conduct their recitations according to the plan laid down in books on teaching in county schools. But our faculty is largely composed of professors who lead in the work, but who do not consider it their duty to instruct as the high school teacher does.
The entrance of a lady into the law school marks an important advancement. K. S. U. has always had girls in the collegiate department, but never before has any Kansas lady lawyer received her professional training here. If we are to have women for lawyers and judges they should be educated at our schools, and now as the ice is broken there will probably be many who will follow Mrs. Brown in taking advantage of the K. S. U. law school.
It is said that scarcely any students coming here are able to enter the free department of the music school. And even some of those
having been in the school and expecting to graduate at a certain time find the requirements have been moved ahead so much as to entirely leave them behind. This is certainly improvement with a vengeance.
Adelphic Society.
It might be thought by new students,from the remarks made in the Courier last week, that there are no literary societies in the University. Such is not the case. The Adelphic society was formed early last year and did good work till the close of school. The first program this year will be presented to night and the members of the society will make welcome at this and all succeeding meetings all those who are interested in literary work. There will be ample opportunity for all those who desire to do work of this kind in the University, and we hope that new students will not be deterred by any remarks they may have heard, from at once making personal investigation as to whether literary spirit in the school is dead.
Adelphic Hall is on the third floor, south wing of the new building, where the following program will be given tc-night at 8 o'clock.

The Y. M. C. A. held its first meeting in room 11 Friday evening with a good attendance. The meeting was full of interest and enjoyed by all. F. C. Frigg from Topeka and addressed the meeting. His remarks were impressive and appropriate. He especially urged the boys to attend the state convention to be held at Leavenworth this year. The outlook for work in the Union is very promising this year and it is hoped much good may be done. All new students are urged to attend the meetings and to connect themselves with the association.

It is supposed that the loss of light from electric lamps in a fog, as compared with the yellow gaallight, is owing to the blueness of the fog or mist, the electric light merely intensifying the blueness, while the gas still pierces the gloom.
