Field Day.
There is every prospect of a good Field Day to-morrow. The base ball boys have done nobly in the short time they have had to work the matter up.

The following is a list of the contests:
2. Throwing weight.
1. Standing jump.
3. 100 yards dash.

Some Juniors should remember that they still owe a quarter to the class on the last assessment; and while we are about it, we might add that some still owe that dollar on the hop.
The New Catalogue.
A few copies of the new catalogue have arrived. The new book contains one hundred pages and is by far the finest ever issued. The most important change, is that all laboratory work will be done in the afternoon hereafter. In the M. L. course Junior German will be required, and in the classical course, Junior Greek.
Quite a number of studies have been changed from five hours a week to two and three hours a week. They will be ready for distribution next week.
Prof. Canfield has a new Seni r optional, international law and diplomacy. The seniors hereafter will be required to take three studies during the second term. (We object.)

K. S. U. to the Front.
Last week a challenge was received by the base ball club from the Iron Clads, the Lawrence club, for a game on Decoration day. The challenge was promptly accepted, and the nine reorganized and strengthened. The game was called at four o'clock, Art Moak acting as umpire. The contest was a pretty one up to the sixth inning, when the Iron Clads had the advantage by a score of thirteen to twelve. Then our boys began to get in their work, and pounded the ball with old time vigor, and soon had a commanding lead. The score below will show the work at the bat. In the field the pitching of Yohe, catching of Davis and fly catching of Sharrard were the fine points of the K. S. U. game. Yohe took the batting honors with the only clean score made on either side, and two three base hits. For the Iron Clads, Madden, Light-cap Dillon and Green, distinguished themselves with the,stick and in the field.
K. S. U.
Runs . . . . .
Left on bases, K. S. U., 6; Iron Clads, 9. Three base hits, Yohe (2), Dillon (2); two base hits, Sharrard, Kerr, Foster, Davis, Madden, Reynolds.
Oratorical Contest.
One of the finest audiences that ever assembled at the beginning of commencement, was that which favored the ten contestants in the contest in original oratorical work. Each of the ten speakers did well, reflecting cred it upon themselves as well as the K. S. U.
Hon. W. A. Starrett of Chicago, Mr. Chamberlain of Seeneca, N. Y., and Rev. Obsorn of this city, acted as judges, Chancellor Lippincott presiding. W. E. Higgins of Rich Hill, Mo., on "Tolerance," was given first, and J. D. McLaren of Delphos, Kansas, on "Cardinal Richelieu's Ambition," was given second place. First prize was an encyclopedia; second was $15 in cash.
On last Friday evening the Normal students were very pleasantly entertained by Dr. Williams, at his residence south of the city. There were about thirty present. The doctor entered into the spirit of the evening with an evident relish. At eleven o'clock bountiful refreshments were served, and all did justice to this part of the evening's festivities. No one could be more popular among the Normal students than the doctor, and the evening spent at his house is another tie binding them to their instructor.
EDITOR VIEWS:-I have been informed that two of our secret societies intend to give banquets next week. Why can not all the societies unite next year and have one grand entertainment? The University of Wisconsin gives the fraternities the privilege of holding such a banque in its college building.
--have been built in the Business Exchange, and here the students pass to and fro investing capital, renting office or store, drawing articles of co-partnership, leases, mortgages, etc., buying and selling merchandise at wholesale, retail and on commission, depositing cash, drawing checks, drafts - in fact performing in reality ALL that a man does in managing a large business.
R. E. HENRY.
The fraternities are strong here. They are harmonious. There is no reason why such a scheme should not succeed.

FOR THE BENEFIT OF TEACHERS AND STUDENTS
Who are occupied during the fall and winter months, and for all those who desire a knowledge of
Bookkeeping and Penmanship,
THIS SUMMER COURSE IS ESPECIALLY DESIGNED.
We can only afford during the summer months, when many students from out of the city go home, to offer such thorough and practical instruction at these Reduced kates.
12 WEEKS, $15.
Those who take advantage of this offer will have a rare opportunity to fit themselves for teachers and accountants.
The principles of Bookkeeping are so clearly set forth, and the practice in the Actual Business Practice Department, where each student carries on a business of his own, is so accurate and real that diligence alone is necessary to gain a thorough, lasting knowledge of the terms and ways of the business world.
In connection with Bookkeeping, drill is given in the most approved methods of computing Interest and Discount, and the law governing Negotiable Paper will receive particular attention.
A Bank, Commercial Exchange, Merchant's Emporium, Real Estate Office, and Commission House
The college currency is the cash capital of the student, and the commerce done with colleges located in Eastern and Southern cities, affords ample practice in writing business letters, telegrams, order sheets, bills, receipts, etc., etc.
The books and blanks of the bank are the same in every particular as those of the best equipped National Banks, and all business, both within the bank and with its customers, is conducted upon the strict principles that govern well-regulated banking institutions.
IN PENMANSHIP there will be one hour's drill each day. A plain business hand is taught. Our system of instruction invariably makes good writers of those that are not indifferent to practice.
At the close of the lesson in penmanship, twenty practical words are dictated, and twice a week a lesson is given in the form and substance of a well-written business letter. These lessons, besides giving valuable knowledge, afford the excellent opportunity of constantly testing the pupil's progress in easy, rapid writing.
The College is spacious, airy, well lighted and furnished.
Morning session from 9 to 12. Afternoon session from 1:30 to 4.
The College is open for study from 8 A.M. to 4:30 P.M.
