Last week the boys in the University nine braced up and got in a pretty good amount of practice. That's the way to do.
The game Saturday occupied just two hours and fifteen minutes. This is pretty good for nine innings. Darby of Wyandotte, umpired.
Fridays was the first of the fraternity games to be played under the new rules. It was not remarkable for brilliant plays or close work. "Muffing" was one of the prominent features. McAlpine played well, Campbell made a home run, Taylor "famed" ten batters, Cunkle three. Castone, the pitcher, dumped the game. A greater number of runs were made than in any previous game. The score is as follows:
Secretary Gilmore is trying to get up a series of three games between K. S. U. and Lawrence. If he succeeds they will be played next week

Captain Davis felt very jubilant over Saturday's game. "It did me as much good," said he, "as a big victory, if the boys continue to play as well as they did Saturday, I have no fear of any college club in the State."

The K. S. U.'s played two practice games with the Lawrence club last week. In the first game on Thursday, Ward and Darby of Wyandotte, formed the battery, seven innings were played and the score stood 8 to 4 in favor of Lawrence. The second game was played on Saturday and the University had its own battery. The game was a very interesting one and said to be the best the University nine has played for years. For Lawrence, the battery, Sears on first and Barlow at the bat, all did excellently. It is hardly fair to speak of one or two players on the side of the University, for all did remarkably

well and but few errors were made. Deford's phenomenal left-handed catch called out as much applause as any play made. The new rules were used and the following score was therefore quite creditable;

No.31.
The game between the Betas and Phi Gams was a fairly good one, although both clubs think that they can do much better. There were no remarkable plays made by either side. Jackson fanned five batters, Lippincott three. Morris, catcher for the Betas, sprained his ankle during the fifth inning, and Houk took his place. The last half of the seventh was not played. Prof. Canfield umpired. The score stood 17 to 15 in favor of the Phi Gams.

The first biennial convention of the Fourth District of Phi Kappa Psi was held at the Grand Pacific hotel, Chicago, Wednesday and Thursday of last week. The Fourth District includes chapters in ten colleges west of Michigan, and also the chapter at Ann Arbor. The other three provinces of the fraternity were in session in various parts of the country at the same time, all being in telegraphic communication. The convention was presided over by the Archon of the district, Prof. Lynn S. Pease, of Wisconsin. Delegates were present from all the colleges but two. Many alumni and visitors were also in attendance. Reports
Mrs. Dudley C. Haskell lectured before the Kappa Alpha Theta sorosis, upon life in Washington. All the pledged members were present. After an elegant "Theta spread" a business meeting was held and Miss May Haskell pledged.
from the chapters showed them uniformly prosperous, and in many places at the head of college enterprise. The chief business of the convention was discussion of the best methods of carrying on fraternity work, and many good papers were given on fraternity subjects. Madison, Wis., was chosen as the next meeting place of the council, two years hence. J. M. Sheean, of Bejoit college, was chosen as undergraduate member of the Executive Council located at Columbus, O. The convention was a great success and finished its labors by a grand banquet at which seventy-five Phi Psis were present.

Orophilian Election.
The Orophilians refused to contest with the Athenaeums and elected last Friday a program of their own. It was, says an old member, "a regular love feast." No squabble, no fight, everything lovely. The following double program was elected: Orations, T. F. Doran, F. H. Olney; debaters, W. W. Davis, W. H. Ayers; essayist, Miss Churchill; declamation, Miss Fincher; president of the evening, Miss Flora Newlin. Those elected are all students of ability and will give an interesting entertainment.
Personal.
The "Mistletoe Bough," which will be produced at the opera house Friday night, promises to be a great success. The costumes and settings used in the play are very fine. Miss Josie Hutchings, Lawrence's favorite soprano, will render the incidental vocal music. The cast of characters is as follows: Baron, Mr. Charles Chadwick; Baroness, Mrs. Charles Chadwick; Lord Lovell, Richard Horton; Bride, Miss Lyle Hyues. Retainers, Misses May Webster, Emma Hynes, Nelly Griffith, Mamie Tisdale, Lena Beard, Mamie Lyons; Messrs. E. G. Blair, Ben Akers, Nate McCague, Lute Lewis, Robert Curdy, W. A. Jackson.
