SMT The Usher Guards have a calico ball to-morrow night. Those students who remain in town cannot do better than attend. Field day will soon be here and we hope the students will be ready for it. We have now in school a larger number of good athletes than we have ever had before. They should begin at once to practice for the coming athletic contest. The University should make records this year which will compare favorably with those of any eastern college. WILSON, IST. Z. KAN. state Ch A communication from the consul general of the United States at Berlin states that within a few weeks over thirty cases of trichinosis have been discovered in Silesia, and other cases are reported from time to time from other places in Germany. This seems to show that the theory which led to the prohibition of the American hog is unfounded and opposed by facts. The Courier has always maintained that the American hog was innocent and unjustly ostracised from Teutonic society. It is a pleasure to note this vindication. The Kansas porker will now take his place at Bismarck's table in perfectly fraternal relations. Athletics at the University seems to be in rather a comatose condition, and all efforts toward an awakening have so far proved abortive. The foot ball club of that place, after challenging us to a game on the 12th inst., declined to play on account of lack of practice. One would think that the challenging club might take such matters into consideration before offering to play, but in this case, either from the shortsightedness of the association, or a lack of confidence on the part of the K. S. U. eleven, their proficiency when the day of the game arrived, seems to have been a matter of serious doubt. If this were the first instance of the kind it might pass without notice, but a similar circumstance happened last spring when the Washburn base ball club, fulfilling an accepted challenge, went to Lawrence. They were received by nobody but the ampire, who was, in fact, the only sign that a base ball club did exist at that place. We do not claim any excellence in athletics, but we do make it an object to keep our engagements, and thereby sustain the reputation of the college on the point of punctuality. If the University would take the interest in athletics that it evinces in social amusements, it might become a formidable factor in the sports of the Kansas college.—Washburn Argo. We very much regret our inability to reply to the above. We feel that the indifference of the University students to athletic sports, and the failure to meet the engagements mentioned above, make the criticism a just one. In fact, we feel quite flattered to know that "If the University would take the interest in athletics that it evinces in social amusements, it might become a formidable factor in the sports of the Kansas college." We had never supposed that we could become formidable, even with the greatest practice. To be sure, the University nine has won three out of five games played with the Washburns, but we never have aspired to become formidable. That is quite beyond our aspirations. STUDENTS VIEWS. While the president and secretary were casting up the marks of the judges, the exercises which had been arranged with much care were marred by the thoughtlessness of some of the University boys who, probably without thinking of the result, called out the name of a pharmacy monkey which frequents that institution. No sooner had its name been called than it bounded upon the stage, banjo in its paws, and went through a series of antics and vain attempts to insult the visitors of other colleges. —Washburn Argo. Would it not be just as well for the students of Washburn to let the students of the University and or Baker Academy settle their own difficulties. The students of the University knew what they wanted, and if they saw to call on Mr. Crew and he to have a little amusement at the expense of the Baldwin students, the Washburnites, to a certain extent the hosts of the occasion, showed very poor taste, to say the least, in their "vain attempts to insult the visitors of other colleges" by hissing. If they did not approve, this was no way to express their dissatisfaction. The good natured chaff to which Mr. Crew treated the Baldwin students, was nothing in comparison to the vile and false accusations which but a few days before had appeared in the Index against some ladies from the University who were so unfortunate as to visit Baldwin City under the delusion that the people of that place had decency enough to treat visitors with at least common civility. Under the circumstances it would have been in much better taste for the Argo to have kept out of the affair. It was unnecessary to go out of the way to offer a gratuitous insult to Mr. Crew and his friends, as is done in the above clipping. We are sorry that the editors did not exercise better discretion. H. As a subscriber of the COURIER, I object. I paid my fifty cents for a newspaper, not for an emetic, and that was what the COURIER was to me last week when I read that slush under the heading "Tis Ever Thus." If it is the COURIER that is ever thus, there wont be a well person in the University within a month. If it is the style of the writer that is ever going to be thus, then to that writer, who ever he or she may be, let me plead with them to move to the building on the north end of the hill. For your mother's sake, for your own sake, move before it is too late. If you will, you will have the sincere prayers of all the students for a speedy recovery. How I will pity the exchange editor of the COURIER as he is compelled to read the criticisms on that stuff. It may kill him. XXXX. --ate points.
