Also! how little man knows of the future. He sits dreamily and immerses in visions of celestial bliss. There is no spirit voice to whisper in the ear the warning of approaching disaster; no angel tongue to bid him rose pounding on that can of dynamite which, the coming second, will seal him heauenward in nineteen hundred different installments. But all this is figurative; to the reality:
We have a girl—that is, we did have. For three long months we have needed in the effulgence of her divine being. We slipped together oft and as, wie Wiedemann reminded us the dist of this month. Side by side we drove o'er bill and vale (and killed Toothaker's best horse). On her larger rests our circle of golden beauty—and a wart. From her lovely ears depend two amber drops, token of our love for her and Rushmer's trust in us.

On that night, that fatal night, how happy we were—our idol! and ourselves. Slowly we ourander homeward through Elysian fields, taking the dark side of the street and avoiding the gas lights. Naught cared we for time or oysters. Having left the opera (the Mikado) at the cud of the last net, we two full hours before we might be expected at the parental manSION. O, those two hours! How we delved into the side paths, our arms—our arms around—our arms—on, we forgot; we didn't go armed, but as we skirted the dark recesses of the elms' shade, somehow—intuitively—that is we both—or rather—we should say—that is O, ipshaw, we walked right on, of course! It was rather late when we got home, leastwise she said they'd all gone to bed, and we might as well go in. O, unnucky step! O, cursed moment! Why did we cross that bewitched threshold?
A minute more and all was over, it wasn't over, by a durn sight! crash; the rocking chair a wreck; he folding doors parted, the gas must up; we two sprawling on the over; a demon face with her father'sountence glaring down upon us, lagony! In vain we sought to pacy in by telling how the arm chair gave my as his daughter went to sit down upon it, how we rushed forward to give her, tripped, fell and went to the door. In thundering tones he demanded an explanation. We hesitated, looked in his face, then started for the door, assisted from behind, our feet flew.

The White Slave.

I was sorry not to see more of the University students at the "White Slave," by far the best play, with no exception, that has visited Lawrence this year. The only one which can in any way be compared to it was the "World," but the latter only excelled in scenic effects and stage setting. It is my opinion that one gets measurably more benefit in every way from seeing such a play as the "White Slave" than an infinity of plodless comedy and sensational nonsense. I have little respect for the person who can leave the performance of such a noble play and not feel that he was better for having seen it.
The company was exceptionally strong and uniform and presented a refreshing contrast to the majority of the companies of the season. Indeed I do not remember to have ever seen such excellent support as was rendered to the noble womanly white slave, Miss Hooper's *Lisa* was a splendid rendition. The important and difficult role was well sustained; while of course not perfect, I know of no positive criticism which can be offered. It was natural, even and unstrained. But Miss Boker as *Nancy* the quohoron slave, divided the honors with her, and had she not ranted so much and been a little less violently emotional she would have surpassed even the strong, natural act of Miss Hooper. She had a splended voice, perhaps a little too masculine, but full of power. Miss Hooper was a beautiful woman, with a sweet, winsome voice which, however, did not lack strength, but could ring out at times like a silver bugle. But sweet, charming *Letty*! she was delightfully, bewildering pretty, but a little too indefinite in expression—like a frightened suumbe in a tangled forest.
Mr. Lighie as *Clay Britton*, the handsome, brave, generous but misguided Kentuckian, was excellent; but he did not belong to the usual order of heroes; he dressed too well. He should have belonged to a lower order of society. Mr. Foster's *Bill Lacy* was the bean ideal of a handsome, dashing, brilliant villain. To my mind he was the best made actor in the company. Mr. Lighie was too stiff and had too little dash properly belonging to a hero. But Mr. Foster had all the piquant abandon of a magnificent villain. There are other strong characters, but there is not space to mention them. The plot was not extraordinary, and of all charges that of being too sensual could not be preferred against it. Its excellence and superiority consisted in the strength of the individual characters, their unity as a whole, their consistency and the noble dialogue. The general standard of the play was far above the ordinary. The scenes were striking and natural at the same time. Altogether it was a play to have seen, was a treat, and to miss, a misfortune. M

The fourth meeting of the Association was held on Tuesday afternoon, at the residence of Kate Wilder. There were about twenty-five girls present and much interest was manifested. Flora Newlin led the meeting. Subject was Thanksgiving. All college girls are cordially invited to attend the next meeting, which will be held at the same place at 2:30 p.m. next Thursday. Miss Wilder will lead. Subject—Advent.
The amendment to the Orophilian constitution, in regard to selecting contestants has received considerable criticism, yet the excitement and personal feelings that have been aroused at elections in both societies showed but too plainly that a change was needed. The contestants should be chosen wholly upon their merits. And a contest in Orophilian will give all a fair chance, and will prevent combinations being made to elect personal friends. X, Y, Z.
