Strange things must ever happen. The latest is the Buchtel College innovation. Mr. Morris, a millionaire's son from Chicago, who won fourth place in the preliminary contest at Buchtel, challenged the lady who won first place, to a second contest in the Academy of Music for $1,000 a side, the winning party to receive the $2,000, which amount is to be expended in a new hospital and named after the successful contestant.—Voice. CONTEST NOTES. The delegations sent by the colleges this year were unusually large. Baker led in numbers, sending about 225, Washburn had about fifty present, Emporia Normal sixty, State University seventy-five, while little Emporia College with only about one hundred students was fifty strong. This is the first year that all the contesting colleges have been so well represented. K. S. U. should have sent a larger delegation. Our loyalty doesn't loom up in very pretentious proportions when compared with that of Emporia college or Washburn. These contests have undoubtedly done a great work in bringing the colleges of the State into better relations and giving the students of each and all broader ideas. They have increased college spirit, and brought colleges into wider notice. They deserve our sympathy and support. The rivalry between Baker and K. S. U. was of a pleasanter nature than heretofore. While healthy, and as strong as ever it was not so bloodthirsty and fierce. K. S.U. boys danced with Baker girls and enjoyed it hugely. Delegates from the two institutions even condescended to board at the same hotel, and Hamilton and Campbell occupied the same room. When the train stopped at Baldwin each crowd cheered lustily for the other. We were beaten, and, whether fairly or not, we have no disgruntled remarks to make. We will try and accept defeat gracefully and do everything in our power to retrieve it next time. Mr. Phillip Campbell, the winning orator, is certainly an excellent speaker and will do Kansas credit in the Inter-State contest. Moreover he is an honorable and pleasant gentleman and an agreeable companion. He is deservedly popular at Baker, and his vichry was on that account heartily enjoyed by the students of his college. Mr. Brewster, the second man, is well known and universally liked. To him is the honor of placing Washburn higher in the list than she has ever been before. To Campbell and Brewster we extend congratulations and hope that they may be equally successful in the future. The change in the constitution making delivery count one-half was carried almost unanimously. Yet it seems doubtful if this is really the wiser plan. It certainly gives inferior institutions a better chance of winning; but it may produce inferior orations. While the true purpose of oratory is to impress convictions and move one's hearers, it happens that in this day and age the printed article is so much farther-reaching than the spoken word, that ability to write well is of greater importance than ability to speak well. Yet if the others are satisfied we think that the University is willing to take its chances on this plan, and we have no fear but that she will get her portion of the honors. A. D. Crooks, C. W.
