UNIVERSITY COURIER.
Those perfumeries are elegant at the South End.
Last Monday the stockholders of the COURIER COMPANY met and adopted a constitution, one that is iron-clad so far as preventing "elique" work. The principal features in revolutionizing college politics in the paper are those limiting stock each member may take, dividing stock and editors equally among secret society men and outsiders, prohibiting voting by proxies, and keeping the stock among active students. L. H. Leach was elected president and J. P. Jacke secretary of the company. The editorial board for the coming year will be found on our first page.
Young ladies and gentlemen, if you wish to spend your evenings both profitably and pleasantly, attend the evening school at the Lawrence Business College. Term beginning October 2nd.
The Orophilians elected officers last Friday.
Every text-book used in the University can be purchased at Bates & Field's.
Our society students rejoice at the building of the new opera house in Lawrence. The University furnishes a large portion of the audience which is present at the winter theatricals, and therefore are delighted with the new arrangements. Mr. Bowersock will bring here none but first-class troups, so that we may be assured of getting our money's worth when we pay for an evening's pleasure. The present week's entertainments have been well attended by students, considering their studies. Friday and Saturday nights not being necessary for study, and the operas being the best of the course, we may expect a large attendance of students.
If you wish to become a practical business writer you can do so by attending the Business College either day or night. Evening school begins October 2nd.
Arthur Cornforth, law graduate of '82, is in the city.
Mettner had a fine collection of photographs, mostly of students, on exhibition at the State Fair. With so handsome a list of subjects he ought to take the blue ribbon anywhere.
Stationery and school supplies at the South End Drug Store.
R. W. E. Twitchell, one of the unfortunates in the campaign of 1877, was in town last Friday. He is now practicing law in Kansas City.
The Business College opened with a larger attendance than ever before since its organization, A. D. 1869. Students are flocking in from all parts of this and adjoining states.
The Oread Literary Society held no meeting last Friday.
Cabinet and card photograph frames at Bates & Field's.
Some of the students complain that the professors made up for vacation by giving longer lessons.
When in the course of human events there have been five recitations at the University, the brain of the professor becometh weary thereofm, and he must needs repair to Forepaugh's circus and recreate his intellect by studying (?) the animals and calmly gazing on the graceful postures of the female acrobats.
The Orophilians have regained another of their absent members in the person of Miss Nettie Hubbard.
The following are the class officers for 1882: Senior Class, Chancellor Marvin; Junior Class, Prof. Miller; Sophomore Class, Prof. Patrick; Freshman Class, Prof. Canfield.
I have a large assortment of toilet soap on hand and my prices are exceedingly low. Please give me a call.
C. W. STRAFFON, Prop., South End Drug Store.
Charley Scott, 81, spent the fore part of the week in Lawrence.
Have you seen Jack's new hat?
The I. C.'s initiated the first member of the year, the Deltas coming immediately after with three new "diamond" men, and the Phi Psis next with another Greek.
The collegiate week commences on Monday instead of Wednesday as heretofore.
The students who have been lamenting that none of our faculty had risen to political eminence, as has Anderson, of the Agricultural College, Angell, of Ann Arbor, or Garfield, of Hiram, may now be comforted. Hon. Jas. W. Green, our law dean, has been made United States Congressman, or in other words, has been nominated for that position on the Democratic ticket.
Bent Moore, who was obliged to leave the University year before last to attend to his sheep interests (?) in Colorado, has returned.
The following students listened to James G. Blaine at Topeka last week: W. C. Spangler, O. D. Walker, W. J. Morse, J. P. Jacke, T. H. Rockwell, Percy Russell, Glen Miller, Fred Stocks, Victor Linley, W. Y. Morgan, G. J. Haygis, E. F. Caldwell, Harry Riggs, J. E. Curry, Robt. Ball, Richard Horton, E. C. Little, E. E. Ritchie, Miss Love, Miss Keist, Miss Bell, Miss Browne, and Miss Thomas. Several of the Preps had intended going but were prevented by the show here on that day.
The report that the Professor of Chemistry omitted Friday's lesson so as to attend the circus, is entirely false.
Mrs. A. Lehman made a visit among Atchison friends, returning last Friday in company with her sister, Miss Brown.
We are sorry to see the cruel practices that are arising among our older representatives, especially the harsh treatment of small town boys. Last Friday on the way to Topeka a number of Seniors attacked and hazed George Barker and master H. B. Asher, the Sheriff. It is also rumored that W. Y. Morgan took a hand in this dasterly outrage. The faculty should attend to this matter at once.
Who will say the Courier is not "booming?" Show us another paper that has been obliged to enlarge onefourth after the first issue, and which found hard work to furnish space for advertisers.
W. M. Watts, the hero of last year's chemistry, is coining money with his camera. Besides, he gets to look through the glass at all the pretty country lasses don't you see?
