abstains from clap-trap in advertising her merits. What I mean, I can best illustrate by one little example. There is Washburn college a very fair school, to which Senator Ingalls sent his son. This fact of the attendance of a senator's hopeful, has been the meat, drink and bed of that school for years. It was impossible to say Washburn, and not add "Ellsworth Ingalls." Never has Kansas University had to use such an advertising dodge. Prominent men from every vocation have sent their children to the University: Senator Plumb, Congressmen Funston and Hanback, Supreme Judge Valentine, Editors Hudson and Prentice, General Freight Agent Sargeant, of the Gulf road, and Hynes, of the Southern Kansas, Doctors Hoge-boom, of Topeka, and Linley, of Atchison. Merchants of the high standing of Ridenour & Baker, Judges Thacher and Otis, Post-office Inspector Crowell and dozens upon dozens of others might be mentioned; yet never once have these names been hoisted as a substitute for the scholastic facilities of our institution.
My attention was chiefly attracted to this high clientage of the University, by glancing over the assemblage at the "Phi Gamma Psi" party, which it was my good for tune to attend. Now be it known there isn't a drop of Boston in my veins, and I don't care a fig for the "blue blood" which traces itself back three or four centuries. The chief pride I took in my observations of that night, was in the fact that almost without exception these youth were children of parents whose eminence was obtained by tough hard knocks, on the front tier of Kansas. I feel that I speak only the simplest truth when I say that never before was the amount of beauty, vigor, intelligence and culture of our state, represented in a gathering of equal size. I do not care to occupy the space necessary to go over the various attainments of the individuals comprising the party. I do not pretend to say it comprised all or even a greater portion of our finest students. If, however, anyone imagines my raptures have led me to an exagoration of the intrinsic worth and social accomplishments united in that assemblage, I ask him but to review critically the list of students in attendance, and the families they represent.
The first old student I met on my visit, was Bryant C. Preston, whom I espied in waiter's apron behind a restaurant counter, near the Union depot, Kansas City. He is one of the University's odd chickens. He and Coffin, another old K. S. U. boy, own the restaurant from which he confidentially told me they were clearing a hundred and twenty-five dollars a month each. Preston is always doing queer things, and turning up in strange corners. Last year when the gas works at Kanras City fizzled, I was walking through a dark muddy street of Kansas City, talking to a friend, when I received a fist crack in the small of my back that made me think I was a goner.
But no! It was Preston, who distinguished me by my voice, and took that exuberant way of letting me know it. He was then working on the Evening News, only getting "$40 a week, being a sort of beginner, you know." Next I heard of him down near St. Louis, where he rammed a long-bladed old jack knife into a passenger, who claimed his seat. All the former boys will remember the time he grabbed his washing and skitted down Massachusetts street, Chinee after him, brandishing a butcher knife, and swearing heathen oaths more terrible than anything in the cuss words of our English vocabulary. Bryant got away, as he always did, and reappeared on the surface as editor of a Sabetha paper, where he got into a journalistic hair-pulling scrabble. In the University he figured as a bold politician, an organizer and disorganizer of fraternities, an admirable rustler, and a Courier editor. SMITH.
WHERE is the University lecture course? We have had but one lecture this year. Is the course dead or does it only sleep, to awake after the holidays with a renewed vigor.
