--was then taken by the stockholders and the subscribers as handed in by the treasurer of the company. By this vote W. S. Jenks was elected editor-in-chief. The Shattuck faction then objected to the list of subscribers as read, and asked that the list as handed in by the business managers be read. This started the row worse than ever, and the air of the room was soon filled with law and college eloquence, and as the members of the different factions began to call each other such endearing names as "liar" "criminal," etc., the chancellor stepped in. The meeting adjourned to meet at the call of the directors.

Once more the University is called upon to mourn for one of its members Last Friday evening, just as the sun was setting in the west, the pure soul of Myrtle Hoge was carried to its eternal home. As a member of 88 she stood high in her classes; as a student she was loved and respected by all why knew her. Her death was very sudden; but a few hours before she was a bright and happy girl, seemingly with a long and useful life before her. The students unite with the afflicted family in mourning our mutual loss.
K. S. U. nine versus Wyandotte nine to morrow afternoon.
On last Friday evening the ladies of Omega chapter, of Kappa Kappa Gamma, determined not to be outlone by other fair ranks, gave an elegant party at the residence of Miss Eva Howe. The number in attendance was not so great, but everybody got acquainted and united in having a good time. The large double parlors had been cleared for dancing, which the inviting music of the mandolin club induced many to indulge in. The supper was most elegantly served by Grossecup, on the brilliantly illuminated lawn, after which the guests were favored by some well rendered vocal solos by Miss Bertie Starr and Mr. Metcalfe. Misses Alice Ropes and Starr also rendered a pleasing duette which was much appreciated. Those present were: Misses Evelyn Smith, Lou Palmer, Cora Kimball, Manic Henshaw, Lillie Freeman, Laura O'Brien, Berdie Starr, Carrie Fisher, Etta Hadley, Minnie Wakefield, Ada McKinnon, Mattie Snow, Mamie Tisdale, Alice Ropes, Marcella Howland, Grace Pickering of Olathe, Misses Campbell and Waugh of Topeka; and Messrs Harry Riggs, H.F.

The chapter is now in the third year of its existence and its remarkablsuccess is well deserved by the lady who constitute it. The chapter ha upon its roll some of the fairest amost accomplished ladies of the University and city, and occupies a prominent place in society cirles.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, JUNE
Review Election.
The meeting of the stockholders of the Review was held last Monday. The meeting was called to order at ten o'clock by President Gilmore. A hot fight was started as to the action of the board of directors in barring John Sullivan from the company, they having done the same from the testimony of Dr. Lippincott, Prof. Miller and Prof. Brownell, that Sullivan was no longer a member of the University. During the wrangling it became necessary to call Policeman Harbaugh to preserve order. About one o'clock it was decided to abide by the decision of the board. The election of the new board of directors was then turned to, and Miss Moore, C. L. Smith, Highbargin and Chase, were elected as three members, the editor-in-chief to be the fifth. At this moment Sullivan bobbed up again with a document signed by Prof. Summerfield, certifying that he was at present a member of the Junior law class. After a long and bitter quarrel it was decided to allow Sullivan a vote in the meeting. Then came the election of the editor-in-chief, with Shattuck and Jenks as candidates. The Shattuck faction called for a list of the subscribers of the Review, which was read after a great amount of wrangling. A vote
Tuesday the board of directors called a meeting to be held at two o'clock. The Jenks faction claimed that the call was illegal, from the fact that the stockholders had not been notified and because the signatures sigded to the call were secured in person from the directors and not in a regular meeting of the board. Only members of the Shattuck faction were present. They elected a full board of editors, with S. W. Shattuck as editor-in-chief.
The last number of the Washburn Argo is the most egotistical exchange ever received by the Courier. They will soon begin to think they are rivals of the University. The Argo reminds us of men who can only be severe by being vituperative.
