Miss Anna Barker and Nannie Love represented K. S. U. in the legislative excursion to Wichita last week.
The orchestra did better Tuesday morning than ever before, so thought the audience.
The engine house is to be moved. So say our legislators. In the language of the pretty Cadet Morris of the Salvation Army—Hallelujha.

The Washburn correspondent in the State Journal takes most of his items out of the Courier.
They danced—yes actually danced at the victor's banquet in Baldwin last week. However it was after the Profs. had gone home.
It is amusing to read in the Review that some one is ill about a month after their recovery.
Why not celebrate "Kansas Day" next year instead of Washington's birthday. Washington was no doubt a great man but in a Kansas University Kansas should not be neglected.
The Senior Pharmacists are cranming on the last two years work for final examinations.
The Handel and Haydn concert was well attended by the students Tuesday evening.
We can't bother with every second rate correspondent who writes Washburn items for the Topeka papers. But to Washburnites one and all, greeting: It is better to crow after victory than before.
The Phi Gamma Deltas gave one their enjoyable parties last Friday evening in their hall. Dancing and card playing were the principal sources of amusement, and a most enjoyable evening was spent.

Riggus, Crowell, Blair, Horton, Fitzgerald of Ottawa, Becklart, Curdy, Morgan, Jackson, Hogeboom, Delo, Brown, Valentine, Deford.
Poor old Washburn whining like a whipped cur raises another wail about her base ball team. The feeders at the educational hog trough near Topeka think if they haven't brains they have at least wind and muscle which they propose to display. Every man to his taste.
The subject of the lecture Tuesday evening will be, "The Manufacture of Artificial Coal."
Everything seems to be quiet in fraternity circles. No new initiates for some time past have come to light.
The opera house is rapidly rebuilding and the fraternity boys watch its progress eagerly. They long for their old quarters.
The Usher Guard bull was well attended by the students. It was a very enjoyable affair, some seventy-five couples were present.
The discussion which is going on through our columns is attracting considerable notice. The marking system is an important subject and ought to be properly adjusted.
It was a pleasant sight to see Profs. and students festooned together in the peanut gallery, at the Handel and Haydn concert. "Dead level of equality" when Profs. and students are festooned in the same peanut heaven.
The Phi Psi boys are working on the March issue of the Shield, which will be the last published by Kansas Alpha chapter. This issue will be especially large and will contain letters from all the different chapters of the fraternity.
Why not call the Review the Alumni Literary. For the alumni are the only contributors who furnish that magazine anything of interest which cannot be found in the Courier.
What is to be done Wednesday night of Commencement week? This night was formerly filled by a lecturer secured by the literary societies. But as one of these societies is extinct the other will not wish to incur the whole expense alone.
The base ball nine will soon be thoroughly organized and will begin practice as soon as the season will permit. The fraternity nines will also organize and strive for the championship.

The University orchestra ought to receive some financial aid from the authorities. The boys have spent considerable money for music and have kindly played whenever requested. It would be nothing more than just to help them to procure sheet music.

Moore, '87, lately started to make a call on two of the University's fair ones.
