"Marcella," by Mrs. Ward is one of the best of recent novels. The novel is a fine example of a touching story, yet devoid of the melo-dramatic sensational.

The saus have been very large but the completeness of the stock has not been marred.

The University Debating Club met at the same hour, and the Adelphic Society challenge was accepted.

A good practice game was played Wednesday afternoon with the High School team. Five innings were played and the score ended 11 to 1 in favor of K.U. Wagner was in the box and put up a very good game.
The first boxing contest of the season came off Wednesday night at the opera house. Ike Johnson, Jesse Harper and "Prof. Speevy Gunter" pleased their friends by knocking out the "Omaha kid" and several other celebrities. No fatalities are reported.
Coleman has left school and gone to California. This makes a vacancy in the track athletic team, and leaves the Board of Directors with about ten members.
A game is scheduled for Saturday with the Kansas City Reds at McCook field. The game will be called at 3:30 and it is to be hoped that the customary Saturday rain will be postponed until Monday. The advisory committee should take action on this at once.
"Shorty Hamill has announced his intention of going to Baker next year.
The tendency in foot-ball next year as indicated by the report of the eastern foot-ball revision committee will be towards the old kicking plays. Momentum and mass plays will be almost unknown. The five yard gain has given place to ten yards, and this will practically do away with mass plays. Touch downs and goals will count three points each. The recommendation of the committee will probably be adopted by the colleges of the soil.
The following is a list of the men and the positions they will play in Saturday's game of ball: Kelsey, C; Smith, P; Mitchell, 1 b; Alden, 2 b; H. B. Hogeboom, 3 b; Mattison, S; S; Steinberger, L; Chamberlain, C; Hogeboom, R. As this is the first' game of the season let everyone attend. If we are to have a winning team we must encourage than by attending the games and giving them our hearty support.
SNOW HALL.
The specimens of moths and butterflies in Snow Hall are being re-arranged according to the latest lists. The collection is to be put in new cases.
Our entomological department is having printed a new list of the beetles which it has on hand for exchange. There are over a thousand species on this list.
The department of entomology has acquired an exceedingly important collection of diptera (flies). This collection contains over six thousand specimens, representing about a thousand species, all of which belong to one family, the specimens of which are very difficult to obtain. In this collection are the type forms of one hundred and fifty new genera. This collection was made by C. H. Tylor Townsend, curator of the museum of the Institute of Jamaica, and contains only North American specimens.
At the last meeting of the regents an appropriation was made to send a geological expedition to the bad lands of Nebraska and South Dakota the coming summer. The party will consist of a half dozen men mostly undergraduate students, and will be under the care of Dr. Williston.
Hill and Riggs spent Friday and Saturday at Turner, Kas., collecting geological specimens.
Overton is busy mounting a skleton of the fossil pecycar found in Sherman Co. a few weeks ago. The specimens are important ones and are of great value to science. They show that what had before been regarded as three distinct species are in fact included in one. They are interesting also from the fact that they are more highly specialized than the pecycaries living to-day.
The botany department is performing an interesting experiment. A large pan filled with earth is kept rapidly rotating both night and day by means of a water motor. In this pan seeds are planted. The experiment is to show the effect of the centrifugal force in the direction of the plant's growth. By analogy the effect of gravitation in the direction of the growth of plants may be inferred. A series of such experiments will be performed. At present, corn, beans, etc., are being tested; later, twinning plants and others will be grown in the rotating pans.
The botany department has just completed an experiment to determine the effect of light upon the growth of plants. A lily was grown near a window until the stem was quite bent. Then it was placed on a slowly rotating stand so that it would receive equal amounts of light on all sides. Under these conditions the stem grew directly upward.
Dr. Bunn of this city spent some time last week making scientific investigations in the botanical laboratory.
The Chancellor is having some more lantern slides made with which to illustrate his evolution lectures.
Prof. Lawrence Bruner, the entomologist of the University of Nebraska, has arranged to present to the department of entomology of this University a considerable collection of orthoptera: that is, grasshoppers, crickets, locusts, etc. Mr. Bruner is one of the best authorities on this group of insects, and the specimens classified and named by him are especially valuable.
Since the first of January Prof. Dyche and his assistants have been paying special attention to the collecting of small Kansas mammals. They have been hunting mice instead of moose. Such small mammals have however, just as much scientific interest and value (at least for study) as the larger animals. About 500 skins of small mammals have been "made" the technical term for preparing them) since January first. As many as twenty specimens of one species have already been collected, showing the variations in hair covering due to various causes. About 100 skins of small Texas and California mammals have been acquired by purchase. In addition to preserving the skins, the stomachs of the collected animals are examined to determine the food habits; to discover whether a given species is injurious or beneficial to man. This is a matter of much economic interest.
Remember the spring contest, Apr. 27th.
