Caldwell will be at his autumnal fest. Useful. Rings and Orem have ten dollars in the phone-call-out, on New York. The Sophs still occupy the rostrum, with aid from the Seniors on Fridays. It is suggested that to have a good faculty reception we should have a dance. And now there are said to be new worshipers at Delta Tau Delta's shrine. The Freshmen will conclude their labors in algebra Monday and Tuesday with the final quiz. The Sophs are now pulverizing test tubes and inhaling Sulphydric acid gas in the chem. lab. A good many of the boys will increase the Republican majority, by a visit home in November. Two more unfortunate, after an interview with the faculty, have concluded a change of climate to be beneficial, and gone home. Cards are out for the wedding of Mr. Arthur Little, of Boston, and Miss Flora Hadley of '81. A petition was circulated and unanimously signed, requesting the re-gents to establish a course requiring but one foreign language. Those interested in a lecture association have not yet given up the project and will soon be heard from. The Seniors will study Mental Science five weeks longer than usual, and have a consequent shortening of the required Moral Science. To-morrow our foot ball eleven will meet the Washburns. The latter have a strong team and are in excellent practice, having beaten the Santa Fe R. R. eleven at Topeka last Friday. The game will no doubt be an interesting one and should be well attended.

Four hundred students are now en-rolled. Roller skating is getting to be quite popular. What do you think of the "new departure" now? The Oread orchestra will be on hand this afternoon. The Phi Gamms have placed a piano in their hall. The Phil Psis gave a dance in their hall last Friday eve. The Orophilian bulletin offers a fine program for this afternoon. The Orophilian Lecture Association committee was not discharged. The Washburn foot ball boys should be treated well by our students. The "Highbargin bosering house" will next try their power on the revents. Prof. Fulton's rates for elocution are exceedingly low. Only $8.00 for twenty-four lessons. We hope that none of our fellow students will take part in any of the mischief that may be done to-night. A large but very select crowd attended Rip Van Winkle last Wednesday evening. Not many of the students were there. Don't stay up election night to hear the returns and then be "not prepared" Wednesday. The cold wave flag over Leis' is managed under the supervision of Prof. Snow. Its remarkable success will be noted when it takes place. The students at Baldwin have always been allowed to vote before, and the Republican majority has been overwhelming. This year the "student voting" will be stopped. The ministers of the city have requested the members of the Y. M. C. A. to take a census of the students in regard to church membership, predilections and denomination of parents. A committee is doing this. Students who can not write a rapid business hand and one that can be read at a glance, are recommended to attend the evening session at the Business College. The charges are very light, only 85. from November 3, to the holidays. There are three schemes for a Lecture Associations urged, and each with force. First, that the literary societies should take the matter in hand. Second, that the societies and Oratorial Association unite in its formation. Third, a close corporation of those interested, similar to the Oratorial Association of last year.
