No class parties as yet.
Heating apparatus was put in Snow Hall the first of the week.
The Sophomores begin laboratory practice next Wednesday.
Let us agitate the question of a gymnasium till we have one.
The cold weather has not seemed to hurt the base ball spirit in K. S. U. one bit.
The course of musical lectures began last Wednesday. The first lecture was delivered by Prof. McDonald.
It was the Courier that moulded public opinion in regard to Snow Hall, and it will continue to cry gymnasium till we have it.
According to a correspondent of the Kansas City Journal, the total expenditure for the University amounts to $574,176.17.
All the stone in front of the main building is being taken out except enough for a drive way. The space will be filled with flower beds.
Most all the faculty seem to be womens' rights men since last commencement, when the girls beat the boys on the program.
The boys now have cards with "I know it" printed thereon. They are to be shown to the person who produces the"I am somewhat of a liar myself" card.
A foot ball team is being organized with Mulvane as captain. A new ball has been ordered, but in the meantime the old ball will be used for practicing purposes.
The work of extending the street car track south on Tennessee street has progressed rapidly during the week, and in a short time cars will be running thereon.
Hallowe'en was observed less in the city than any such night for several years. The influence of the Great Religious Weekly is felt throughout Lawrence.
Susan B. Anthony does not resemble the typical woman suffrage women in the least. She looks more like a kind old grandmother who ought to have the knitting needles in her hands.
The balances which were purchased for the pharmacy department will weigh, instead of one-tenth of a grain, as was stated in last week's Courier, one-tenth of a milligram.
W. S. ALLEN.
In the mathematical article on the second page of last week's Courier, wherever the word "joint" is used it should read point. This correction will make the theorem easy to understand.
The Sophomore Greek class hereby challenges any other collegiate language class in K, S. U. to a game of base ball. For arrangements, see W. S. ALLEN
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, NOV. 5,1886.
The following is taken from the Detroit Free Press. Does it refer to any student of K. S. U.?:
The Kappa Alpha Theta journal published at this place was issued the latter part of last week. It is a very creditable issue, neat and tasty in appearance, and filled with well written and well selected articles. The magazine is an honor to everyone connected with it, to the chapter at this place and to the fraternity at large.
Oread held an election last Friday to elect the contestants for the December contest between Oread and Orophilian. The following were chosen: Orator, Henri Nickel; debater, Fred Bowersock; declaimer, Gertie Hunnicut; essayist, Agnes Wright; president of the evening, Frank Crowell. The fortunate ones are well known as speakers of ability and note, and combined with those elected for Orophilian, will make a strong and interesting program.
"The KANSAS STUDENT.—A farmer near Paola, Kas., has been for a long time losing his spring chickens and was unable to locate the culprit, although a neighbor's pet fox was suspected. The farmer's son arrived home from college lately and was equal to the emergency as long as there was no work in prospect. So he arranged a large looking glass in the poultry house, and below it an easy trap in a tub of water. The fox came in due time, saw the reflection of the pullets, made a spring and found himself entrapped. The farmer's son will graduate from the law department."
KAPPA KAPPA GAMMA.—The first party given this fall by the ladies of Kappa Kappa Gamma was that given last Friday evening at the home of Miss Mannie Heushaw. The ladies assembling early in the evening, welcomed their guests in a most pleasant and informal manner. The hours, occupied as they were, in card playing, dancing, singing, games, etc., passed only too fast for the merrymakers. At a suitable hour elegant and appetizing refreshments were served, to which the company did justice as only students know how. \t a late, or rather early hour, the happy throng dispersed, humming the airs of the beautiful songs of K. K. G., and voting the ladies of this fraternity the most pleasant entertainers of K. S. U. The company, composed almost exclusively of University students were as follows: Etta Hadley, Daisy Clendinen, Nellie Palmer, Birdie Atwood, Lillie Freeman, Eva Howe, Laura O'Bryon, Katie Hewens, Ida Hufford, Jessie McBride, Ia Williams, Grace Waugh, of Topeka, Mattie Snow, May Page, Gussie Price, Cora Kimball, Annie McKinnon; Messrs. Jenks, Hogeboom, Higinbotham, V. Kellogg, Lewis, Borah, Caywood, Allen, L. T. Smith, Mulvane, Plumb, Ed Franklin, Lippincott, Riggs, Buckingham, Kroh Henshaw, Snow, F. Kellogg, Valentine, Russ.

The department of chemistry has just received a fine lot of chemicals from Germany. It has also received specimens of some rare elements, as selenium, chronium and iridium, and a hydrogen lamp. The latter is an apparatus for producing a fire without the use of an ordinary match, and is, in fact, a chemical match of early invention. A large amount of apparatus for the use of students in the chemical laboratory has also arrived from Europe. For the benefit and use of students in organic chemistry, the department has received some fine specimens of alcohols, ethers, hydrocarbons, etc., from Jayne & Chase, of Philadelphia.
DEDICATION OF SNOW HALL.—Snow Hall will be dedicated on Tuesday, Nov. 16th. There will be no recitations on this day. The dedicatory exercises will be held at ten o'clock A.M., in Snow Hall. Some of the most noted men of the state will take part. At eleven o'clock Prof. E.D. Cope, of Philadelphia, one of the best known naturalists in America, secretary of the Philadelphia Academy of Science, and a worker in the Smithsonian Institute of Washington, will deliver an address in the main building. In the evening the first lecture of the lecture course of this year will be delivered by Prof. Branner, of the Indiana State University, the subject being "A Naturalist in Brazil." This lecture will be made a part of the dedication exercises. Prof. Branner has spent several years in South America, as one of the members of the Royal Geological Survey, instituted by Don Pedro, and his knowledge of the country is most intimate. The complete program will be published in next week's Courier.
K. A. T. PARTY.—The Kappa Alpha Theta entailed their gentlemen friends last Friday evening at the home of Miss May Webster, on Ohio street. The spacious parlors of the house were splendidly decorated for the occasion, and were thronged with the beautiful hostesses of the occasion. The evening was passed pleasantly with games, dancing and conversation, until eleven o'clock, when refreshments were served that rendered full justice to the occasion.
