The annual faculty reception will be next Friday evening, one week from this evening. There were a large number of students at the Republican rally, and manifested great enthusiasm over Col. Martin. There is but one "Independent Republican" in the University of Kansas. If Blaine is elected he will hold an indignation meeting. Having received written requests from a great many "interested" students, we suppress Dr. Millard's statement, of which we spoke in our last issue. Miss Thompson and Messrs. Bales and Franklin form the orchestra about which we have heard so much since its exceptionally fine performance in Oread last Friday. The K. S. U. foot ball team has received a formal challenge from the Washburn team to play a game of foot ball. The challenge has been accepted and the game will be played Saturday, Nov. 1. We will say to "Muleahai" that his lengthy, pleasingly written rythmic production on "Frat Initiation" occasioned our president a great deal of amusement, and he may insist upon its appearance next week; too late this, however. Mrs. Turpin, the lady who cooks for the "Hungry club on Ohio street," spread some damp matches on the garret floor to dry. They dried, and if they had not been discovered when they were, the hole would have been burnt much larger. There was a little boy, And his name was Grover. When he was initiated, He was initiated all over. A canvass among the faculty as to presidential preference, showed a remarkable unanimity for Blaine and Logan. All but three were straight Republicans, and those will probably get down on the Republican side of the fence. Almost all are for Martin for governor, but a few are not yet decided as to which side will win. Instead of speaking to vacant chairs, as heretofore, the Seniors are "posted" for Friday mornings, when each student is expected to be in his seat. Although it may be somewhat trying on "us," the Seniors, at least, ought to thank either Prof. Brownell or Providence for this novel arrangement. Are we to suppose from the action of the recent joint meeting of literary societies and the faculty, that the seventh page of our next catalogue is to be blank? Then are we going to do away with the library also, and finally put up the building at auction? Is this a University or is it a country school? The Oratorical Association met Tuesday and formed a permanent organization, with the following officers: President, E. F. Caldwell; vice president, J.D. McLaren; secretary, H.A.McLean; treasurer, W.Y.Morgan; executive committee, W.H.Johnson,T.F.Doran,S.M Cook. At the meeting to-day the date of the local contest will be decided upon. No.7. As we prophesied in our last number, the tariff debate in Oread drew a large house. Two men on the negative failed to respond, and W. Y. Morgan, of the affirmative, suddenly changed his opinions and aided Mr. Bennett on the negative. Crane did nobly, pouring forth many facts in the most glowing eloquence. Gilmore painted the free trade and "protection" pictures in a most touching manner. Bennett showed very clearly that all the affirmative said was not what it was represented to be. Morgan, after making a neat speech of about ten minutes, in which he quoted statistics from his own mind, arose and denied all he had stated. It is evident from the facts produced that there are two sides to this question. A large concourse of people have been filling the millinery parlors of the Misses Mugler for the last 24 hours. The event is their grand opening for the year. They are open all day to-day, and every young lady of the University should call. PERSONAL. Mr. Grover is a new Beta Kappa Chi. W. H.
