LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MARCH 26, 1886.
LOCAL.
The zoology class will begin labor ory work before many days.
The Pharmacy department had an examination Monday.
The Kats have not yet brought out its sol-rosa members.
Oreda needs another election to get a little life into its meetings.
The gentleman who was suspended week has been reinstated.
Base ball occupies the minds of the players every favorable afternoon.
The students seem to hold the sense of power in the Unity club.
The Freshman chemistry class has increased to seventy-seven members. Work has been commenced on Show Hall again, but in rather a small way.
Sophomore English Literature class is reviewing. One hundred pages are being taken daily.
The Washburns say that our foot all team backed out. It looks as if it was about time.
Miss Thatcher's German class has began to review, preparatory to the coming examination.
Why don't the street car company have a car at the foot of the hill at the end of the fourth hour?
From the number of parties, dances,
etc., coming off, it don't seem as if
ent troubled the students very much.
We have not yet seen the boys occupy their vacant hours playing marbles. What's the matter with the sub-Freshmen?
The botany class went into the laboratory Monday, and hereafter the gay botanist will spend his vacant hours gathering flowers.
The Pharmacy laboratory is almost completed. The work of that department will be greatly facilitated by the immense room.
The Phi Gams, the Phi Psis, the Phi Delts, and the Betas all give parties to night. Who says there is no social life in K. S. U.?
An elegantly carved dragon for the portal of the Natural History building has been received. It is the finest piece of carving ever seen in the city.
The visitors record book ought to be kept in better style. Not two-thirds of the visitors ever see the book. What is the use of trying to keep a record if it is kept in this manner.
On Thursday Prof. Miller received from Topeka twenty-five volumes for the library, among them were the following: Sixteen volumes of the Atlantic Monthly, six volumes of Old and New; two volumes of the Galaxy, and one volume of the Magazine of American History. These books are elegantly bound and are a valuable addition to the library. Our library is fast becoming one of the best in the state.
If there is n word of truth in the above, which is doubtful, we are glad to hear that it cannot refer to any of the visitors from K. S. U. Some of our boys may have become a little noisy, yet we know that our ladies could not have behaved any better, for their conduct was perfect. We do not know to what college the article refers, and think the writer must have put it in more to fill space than as a matter of fact.
How the I. C.'s did loom up Monday morning,
The oratorical contest will be held at Ottawa next year.

The Chancellor visited the high schools of Atchison and Valley Falls last week.
The botany class are compelled to deposit fifty cents for their keys, this year, instead of twenty-five as heretofore. This has been made necessary by the negligence of some former students to return their keys at the end of this year.
The appearance of some of the college boys who came here to attend the oratorial contest, last Friday, was not very complimentary to their institutions—but then college boys will be boys, you know. A number of them speedily solved the mystery of how to prohibit prohibition from prohibiting, and made spectacles of themselves upon the streets. I hear, also, that a party of the students, male and female, was threatened with forecible ejectment from one of the hotels, because they insisted upon trying to raise the roof with noise after the exercises at the opera house were over and the hotel folks had retired for the night.—Topeka Lawe.
The COUCHER advertisises only the best operas that come here; therefore you can depend upon it, that when we say an attraction is really good, we mean it, and we do emphatically say that the Boston Ideals are the finest attraction that Lawrence ever will have enjoyed.
Speaking of "Fra Diavolo," the Chicago Tribune has the following to say:
The cast of "Fra Diavolo" contained the following: Miss de Lussan as Zerlina, Miss Huntington as Lady Allcash, Mr. Barnabee as Lord Allcash, Mr. Karl as Fra Diavolo, Mr. Morsell as Lorenzo, with Clarke and Frothingham as the two brigands. Clarke made a splendid effect with his interpolated song in the last act. The principal interest of the performance centered in the work of the three principals—Karl, Barnabee and Miss de Lussan. Barnabee is well known and deservedly famous in this role. Karl is about as satisfactory a Fra Diavolo as could be asked. If compared with the high-spirited little De Falco who played it lately in the Mapleson company, Karl's true rank will immediately appear. Another good point in his interpretation is the clear enunciation of the text. Miss De Lussan's Zerlina is a charming impersonation. These people sing artistically, but their stronghold of popularity is the goodness of their individual tones.
Last Friday evening the leasing event in society circles this year, took place at the A. O. U. W. hall. The occasion being the "character party" given by the young ladies of the I. C. Sorosis. Handsome invitations had been issued three weeks before, and every one of the favored was promptly on hand. By eight o'clock the hall and parlor was filled with a gay throng of youth and beauty costumed to represent characters of every known race, clime, country and description. At eight o'clock the grand march began, and in the march every celebrated character in history or fiction seemed to be represented. (quadrills, polkas and waltzes followed to the inspiring music of the First Regiment Band.
I. C. Party.
During the evening elegant refreshments were served and the wants of the inner man were attended to as fully as those of the outer. Several professors and their wives were present to enjoy the beauty of the scene and congratulate the I. C.'s on their success.
The reception throughout was elegant, stylish and enjoyable. The evening will always linger as a pleasant memory with those present.
Nothing which could add to pleasure was neglected, and the whole affair was admirably arranged and managed by the young ladies. The L.C. character party will be the great social event of the year, which others may hope to equal, but none surpass.

The Kappa chapter of the I. C. Sorosis was founded at K. S. U. in 1872, and is the oldest lady fraternity in the University. Its charter members were Misses Hannah Oliver, May Richardson, Lizzie Yeagley, Flora Richardson, Gertrude Boughton, Alma Richardson and Vina Lambert. It took a high social standing at the very start and it has never fallen backward in this particular. For a time it existed without a rival, but even when rivals came Kappa chapter prospered just the same. Its members comprise the smartest, brightest, prettiest girls in school. We can only join its many friends in wishing it long prosperity and happiness.
