King for a joint debate upon the following proposition: "Resolved, That a tariff levied for the sole purpose of protection to American industries is unconstitutional." The challenge has been accepted, and the argument is not to involve the principle of free trade and protection, nor anything in regard to which is the best policy for the government, but is to be confined to the legal question as to whether Congress has the right, under the constitution, to levy protection duties.
A Story By A Kansas Woman.
A Volume of K, S. U. Poems.
The Story of "Esther, the Gentile," which is being printed in the Sunday Capital, written by Mrs. J. K. Hudson, has been printed in book form. It is a well written, interesting story, of more than ordinary power, having the great Mormon iniquity as a basis. It is a Kansas book, written by a Kansas woman,
There is quite a commendable scheme on foot for the publication of a volume of University poems. The volume is to be edited by Prof. Marsh, and will be contributed to chiefly by Profs. A.G.Canfield and W.H.Carruth, the Gleed brothers, Jenks and Miss Mamie Manley. These authors have written many pretty things, and the collection of their poems into a volume meets the hearty approbation of the students, and the willing manner in which they subscribe for the volume shows their appreciation of the writers. Every student should procure a volume.
and published by a Kansas publishing house, (Geo. W. Crane & Co.) It is printed in plain type, on heavy laid paper, with handsome cloth binding. The price is $1.00 per volume, sent postage paid, to any address. Orders may be sent to Geo. W. Crane & Co.; or to Publisher Daily Capital, Topeka, Kansas. For sale also at all book stores.
Miss Mabel Gore, who will be remembered by all patrons of the concerts, will play two solos, and will also take part in three numbers for two pianos, with Prof. McDonald. Prof. Aldrich and Miss Georgia Brown will furnish vocal numbers. The admission to all parts of the hall will be twenty-five cents. Let the students of K. S. U. wait no second bidding but rally enthusiastically and en masse to the support of the Department of Music in this, its new undertaking.
Next Tuesday evening the Department of Music will give its twenty-fourth recital in University Hall. For the first time since these concerts were commenced, an admission fee will be charged. The Department has worked its way for the past four years with almost no financial support other than that derived from the fees of its students, purchasing its own instruments, and otherwise paying all expenses, which have not been light. The numerous concerts, recitals, and lectures which have been furnished students and public without charge, have been maintained at the expense of the Dean of the Department. An effort is now being made to secure a first-class grand piano for University Hall, and the proceeds of Tuesday's concert will go towards the payment for the same. Everyone knows how indispensable such an instrument is to the complete success of any concert, and how inadequate the pianos are which the Department has heretofore been compelled to use.
