Law

Prof. Gleed, of Topeka, will hear the Seniors after next week, upon the subject of Real property.
Workman, one of the Juniors, went to Belleville the first of the week, where he was summoned as a witness in a law suit.
Only two of the Seniors, Harbaugh and Roberts showed up for recitation on Friday after the presidential "jam"—of Thursday.
L. F. Bradley, of last year's class, is located at Wyandotte, and meeting with a goodly degree of success in his chosen profession, and is spoken of among white, as well as colored, as a "rising young lawyer."
A library has been fitted up for the laws in their own rooms, and by Prof Green placed in it over $3,000 worth of books, which he does as a matter of accommodation to the boys and for which he receives no pay. The State has furnished for the department a very good collection of text books, costing not to exceed $1,000. These have been placed in the University library and under the new regulations no law student is allowed to enter the library, and yet the faculty refuse to allow the law books to be taken into the law library and thus the students are practically deprived of all use of them. As a consequence some of the legal limbs are righteously indignant and it certainly is not treating Prof. Green right after he has placed his much more valuable books at the disposal of the department, to be refused those furnished by the State. The law books are for law students and are used by no others and they should be placed where those wishing to use them can have access to them.
A good tooth brush for ten cents at Straffon's Pharmacy.

Kansas City Notes.
K. S. U. students were decidedly numerous.
Dr. Lippincott dined with the President in the evening.
Profs. Wilcox and Snow were among the Faculty representatives.
Students versed in mythology had an opportunity for displaying their knowledge during the Priests of Pallas parade.
Haskell Institute had a place on the platform during the reception, while the representatives of K. S. U. were smothering in the crowd. Many wished themselves "Injuns."
The excursion train did not arrive here until after two o'clock, Friday morning. Many stayed in Kansas City until, Saturday or Sunday, while others whose homes are near by, made short visits to their ma's.
"Why we we've got three or four better looking girls, right up at the University, than Mrs. Cleveland," was the remark made by one of our noble youth, as he passed before the reviewing stand. Wonder which three or four he meant?
One or two of our professors, who were compelled to teach Thursday last have been taking occasion during the past week to vent their spleen upon students who were absent that day, remarking about the useless waste of time and even money. It seems as if everyone would learn after while, that there is just a little bit of the world outside of the walls of the class-room and that the President of the United States will beat a professor everytime in drawing a crowd.

Kent Club.
The club next proceeded to render its literary program of which there seemed an abundance, there being two separate entertainments provided for the same evening. Now came a display of forensic ability from various members of the club. The rising young Webster from Indiana having presented unanswerable argument with unprecedented eloquence secured the vote of the club to the support of his program, although many opponents showed great verbosity and veracity in their statements, with lawyerly pomposity, various gentlemen from Kansas and Illinois participating.
Having occasion Thursday evening to visit the court house, I was attracted by the hum of a multilude of voices in the court room.
The literary exercises then began with Mr. Enns' brilliant production on the life of Blackstone, in his own unique style. This was followed by varied exercises, all of which were commendable. Then came a spirited debate on the foreign immigration question, both sides being ably sustained. Words fail to reach the heights to which these gentlemen may attain from such humble beginnings. ALPHA.
On entering I beheld several young gentlemen with smooth face and honest brow, all of whom I afterwards learned were young limbs of the law. Learning that their Kent Club met that evening I determined to remain.
After various acrobatic feats and general discussions the club proceeded to business. The President being absent the gentleman from California acted as chairman with the Virginia member secretary thus uniting the East and West.
P. S.—We forgot to mention the fact that the club was "dunned" by an African gent for his fees as janitor. A.
