Subject, "The Tariff." Let no one fail to hear this noted speaker. The Kent club, under whose auspices the lecture is delivered, is to be congratulated on its enterprise. When the club arranged for Mr. St. John it was supposed that he would lecture in the University, and the literary societies which had engaged the chapel for that night kindly postponed their program. But for some reason the Regents refused to allow the club the use of the chapel. The members of the club were determined not to allow so small a matter to stop the lecture and secured the opera house. For real wide-awake rustling the laws, and especially those constituting the Kent club, stand at the head. The Juniors finished "Bishop on contracts last Tuesday and are now wading through 'Schuler on Domestic Relations." Hodge is down on fraternities. Junior Moot court was postponed Wednesday on account of an interesting case in the district court which the court wanted to attend. Some person with more cheek than intellect has defaced some of the posters announcing the lecture of Mr. St. John. We are informed that it was done by a law and a member of the Kent Club. The question of a lecture by Mr. St. John was brought up in the Kent Club and the club was unanimous in favor of it. It would have been a great deal more manly for the member to have openly opposed it then, than the method he used. T. A. Pollock of the firm of Spooner & Pollock, of Kansaa City was in the cit.
