A very violent attack of spring fever has been felt on Mount Oread. Unless relief is at once afforded, it will be impossible for the members of the Freshman class to meet their instructors.

At this particular time when there is a chance of K. S. U. getting second place or better in the oratorical contest, would it not be well for every one to get a copy of the orations? These can be obtained in magazine form for 10 cents. Apply to the Business Managers of the STUDENTS JOURNAL.
Why is it that Weaver has such great success with every special sale that he holds? That question has been answered time and again by customers who have made it a point to visit Weaver's store whenever he advertises a sale. No counter attractions have ever succeeded in diverting one single customer. Take for instance the Easter sale of Wool Dress Goods that is now on. Look at the styles, the qualities, the varieties, not great quantities of one or two materials, but a pattern, sometimes two, never more, of the same goods.
Weaver's dress goods never get common while the prices are always reasonable.
Today the store was filled with people who came to look—to admire, and some to buy the beautiful goods. You're not urged to buy at Weaver's. You are welcome always.

The president of the local oratorical association is in receipt of a letter from State Secretary Richi, requesting that a meeting be called and our opinion be expressed upon the advisibility of dividing the State Association into several groups. These groups would have their local contests and the winners would go to Topeka. This would have the advantage of shortening the program at the State contest. But on the other hand, it would necessarily exclude some of the colleges from the State contest, and would put a stop to some of the excursions and the healthy demonstrations of college spirit, which, after all the flings that inferior or jealous souls can throw, are one of the chief charms of college life.
The Board of Directors of the Athletic Association has succeeded in making arrangements for a concert to be given next Tuesday March 29th by the well known Adelphian Quartette. In the lack of a lecture bureau, the Athletic Association has endeavoured to furnish a suitable entertainment, and should receive the encouragement and support of the University. The Adelphian Quartette, formerly from Depee College, may be expected to give a fine concert, and all who attend will not only enjoy hearing some fine music but will aid the Athletic Association in a way that will be appreciated. The concert will be given at University chapel, price 35 cents. Edwards, May and Williamson have charge of all arrangements and will have tickets on sale soon. Get your seats early.
Some of the Fossils of Snow Hall,
Mr. Overton is now busily working on a skeleton of the plesiosaurus, discovered by Judge West in the chalk beds of Western Kansas in the year 1890. This is considered by Prof. Williston to be one of the most valuable specimens in the museum. The head of the animal and the vertebra of the neck which are complete, are all that could be found of the valuable skeleton. A great deal of care is required in preparing this skeleton as it is very fragile. When mounted it will be placed in the museum in a new case which is being prepared for the purpose. Some time ago Mr. Overton in searching for fossils on his father's farm in Phillips county, Kansas, discovered parts of the shells and skeletons of thirteen turtles imbbed in the tertiary sandstone. These fossil remains of the turtles come from the same bed of sandstone in which the rhinoceros skeletons were found, but they are situated about six or seven feet nearer the surface than the rhinoceros remains. Mr. Overton will prepare these skeletons of the turtle, as soon as convenient, and they will form a valuable addition to the museum.
The skeleton of the rhinoceros will soon be placed in the case. Prof. Williston says that it is the first fossil animal ever mounted in skeleton form. This skeleton was also found on Mr. Overton's farm in Phillips county, which, by the way, is considered to be the richest deposit of fossil skeletons ever discovered. This rhinoceros is not an individual skeleton, but is made up of a collection of bones. It was built, beginning with the pelvic arch, and took six month's work to complete it. This skeleton is four feet high, nine feet long, and measures ten feet around the body. The next University Quarterly will contain a full description of the skeleton, written by Prof. Williston, and illustrated with blue prints.
