For First-Class Tailor Work you must go to GEORGE HOLLINGBERRY. LOCAL. OREAD.—In the absence of Miss Brown, Vice President Dunn called the society to order. Then followed the regular order of business. Essays were read by M. E. Cox and J. B. Shanafelt. A piano solo by Miss Luella Moore received loud applause. Miss Hunnicut and Miss Moore each read selections. The program was not entirely filled, on account of the sickness of some of the members. After recess the regular debate was taken up, and discussed on the affirmative by Morgan and Fritz; on the negative by Markley and Shanafelt. The judges decided that a national pauper fund should be established. Under "miscellaneous business" H. A. Smith presented his resignation, and W. Y. Morgan was appointed on the committee of arrangements for the contest. The committee on arrangements reported partially, as it were. It will have to again meet the Orophilian committee before satisfactory arrangements can be made. It is sad to be called upon to notice the untimely death of a young man or woman, and especially so if the deceased by a display of kindness, courtesy and true manhood or womanhood gave promise of an exceptionally bright career. Death's angel has again appeared amidst us and claimed as his own one of the fairest of K. S. U's, daughters, Mrs. Gertie Swickard. She was well known to us all, and we voice the general grief with which the news was received. She passed away December 15th, at her home in Equity, Kansas. The remains were brought to Lawrence and here interred, four of her old schoolmates acting as pall bearers. To the bereaved husband and parents we offer our heartfelt sympathy for the loss of a devoted wife and a loving daughter. The Oread society, of which Mrs. Swickard was a 'member, met and took action as follows: It will be remembered that at the fourth annual contest between the Oread and Orophilian societies, Oread was represented in a pleasing and highly satisfactory manner by Miss Gertrude Russ as declaimer, and Mr. N.A. Swickard as debater, and the triumph recorded for Oread was greatly owing to those efforts. These two were afterwards united in the bonds of holy matrimony, and at a special meeting of Oread society, Dec. 17th, the following resolutions were adopted: WHEREAS, Our Heavenly Father having seen fit in His infinite wisdom to take to Himself our former member, Gertrude (Russ) Swickard, Resolved, That we deeply mour the loss of a beloved and zealous member, and one who conferred at this time last year at our annual contest, great honor upon our society. Resolved, That we extend our most sincere and heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved husband and parents. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the records of Orcad society, be furnished to the relatives of the deceased, and be published in the city and University papers.

In a paper before the Kansas Academy of Science held in this city, Prof. Snow said that the records at Leavenworth for nineteen years previous to the settlement of Kansas, compared with similar records for nineteen years since its settlement, showed an increase of an average of more than five inches of rain.
