Whew! Manitoba
Heard from.
The usual faculty reception is now due.
The musical department is booming.
All the "spooney" students are not for Butler.
The lecture association should be worked up.
The law department opens next Tuesday.
Three hundred and eighty-six students enrolled.
The attendance at chapel rhetoricals is not too large for safety.
Baldwin has three hundred and seventy students, Lane eighty-five.
The Indians at Haskell Institute wear Blaine and Logan badges.
You will notice that all the nicely dressed students buy of Bromelsick.
A new hat sets off the owner well if it is stylish and comes from Bromsick.
The old Oread organ has been shipped to Leavenworth to be sold, the proceeds to apply on the piano.
The faculty have not yet made up their political opinions, but, no doubt, in the depths of their hearts they desire to use their influence for Bromelick, and his nobby collars, cuffs, ties, hats, etc.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, OCTOBER 10, 1884.
To anxious inquirers as to our old police force, we would say that Courtney is chief of a restaurant down town. Henry Ward Beecher has departed to the shining shore, where the students cease from troubling and the weary are at rest. Sterling is still on deck.
The Orophilians elected the following officers: Speaker, T. F. Doran; clerk, Pearl Young; treasurer, W. T. Reed; critic, J. D. McLaren; chapain, F. H. Olney; chorister, W. E. Higgins; organist, Lillian Bell; executive committee, Nettie Hubbard, S. M. Cook, B. P. Blair.
Married, October 8th, Miss Alice Collier and Mr. Don J. Rankin, both of '81. Miss Collier is well known to all our old students as one of the most charming and talented young ladies who ever attended our college. Don Rankin is an ambitious, energetic young man and his success is assured. The many friends of the young couple agree that never did bride and groom possess so fully the qualities which draw friends and command respect and admiration, as Mr. and Mrs. Don J. Rankin.
No. 5.
Miss Carrie Hastings, a bell of last year and universally admired, was married October 8th, to C. J. Fletcher, of St. Joseph. Although not a K. S. U. boy we take great pleasure in congratulating Mr. Fletcher and hoping that the path of the twain, as they advance along life's journey, may be ever so happy.

Said Cyrus to his solid girl
When placing at the gate,
Why is it that you will with me
Go boating none of late?
She shrugged her little shoulders.
Stepped closer a step or more.
And answered with a sort of pout.
Why, you only hug the share.
