It has become a fixed habit for some of the professors to hold their classes five or ten minutes after time. This is very annoying to other professors who are more punctual, to say nothing of the inconvenience to the students who sometimes miss the roll call of their next class. A little consideration on the part of professors would prevent this. E. C. Finney, who was graduated from the University law class of '91 was in the city to-day.

The resignation was accepted and Mr. A. O. Garrett unanimously elected to fill the vacancy. Mr. Garrett has already showed his efficiency in performing the duties of business manager.

Prof. Haworth, in company with his geological class, took a trip last Saturday to the bluffs south of Lawrence. The class were very well pleased with the manner in which the professor conducted the expedition. The different layers of limestone and sandstone were pointed out and explained. The foundation of the granite boulders and flints were also studied. The effects of erosion are very well marked in this locality, and could be profitably studied. There is but little known concerning the geology of the state of Kansas. The Legislature could give the University a small appropriation for the purpose of geological investigation, with very satisfactory results. A great many students would be pleased to spend their summer vacations in making geological surveys, if their expenses were paid. During the vacation lately ended, Piatt, McClung, Kirk, and others were engaged in this work, and completed some valuable surveys, and from what has already been done it is found that Kansas has some of the finest remains of imbedded leaves and fossils which have ever been discovere*
