E. of 90, was visiting old friends on the hill yesterday. Mr. T. J. Norton, of the Law school, was home on a short visit last Sunday. Miss May Cooke made her sister and other University friends a short visit last week. K. U, has about a dozen new students who were registered in the State Normal last year.

Three graduates of the Kansas University are running for the position of county surveyor of Johnson county. Prof. Geo, Gaumer addressed the University Science Club last Thursday. Subject: "A Naturalist in Yucatan." John F. Hall is teaching near Leavenworth this year. He sends regards to all old students, and hopes to be with us next year. How is it such numbers of young men starting out to make a name for themselves in life, hit on Dennis?—judge. Harrington's time is largely taken up this year by the Courier and as a consequence he is taking only five studies. Prof. E, H. S. Bailey was favored by the visit of his father last week. The latter has returned to his home in Connecticut. Freshman, Sophomore and Junior engineers take notice: the day is not far in the future when your themes must be ready. Mr. C. R. Troxel has severed his connections with Chicago and the World's Fair and returned to his old place in the University. Miss Effie Loder has returned and is registered in the University. The news of her return is glad tidings to University circles. Jack Craycraft, an electrical engineer of last year, is registered in the University, having left a very desirable position in St. Louis to complete his course here. Prof. Clark is giving instruction in practical drawing. The class met last Wednesday, and students desiring such a course should make arrangements at once. Mrs. T, S T. Scudder, of Topoka and Mrs I. J. Shook, of Kansas City, were in lawrences last week, visiting with their brothers, T. H, and D. C. Kelly. There is a growing tendency for students to frequent the reading room and library in place of the halls and corridors. This shows that more work is being done by them. Charles Kitzmiller, an electrical engineer of last year's Sophomore class, has returned to the University. He spent the summer in Oklahoma and was an eye witness of the rush. Among the girls attending the University are three daughters of state senators, two congressmen's daughters; an ex-governor's daughter, besides a daughter of a distinguished deceased United States senator.—Lawrence Gazette.

All interested are cordially invited, and an urgent invitation is extended to all the department of history. Mr. Olin Bell has on exhibition the new instruments to be used by the K. U. band. These instruments have been much needed by the band, and their music will inspire our football team in its efforts to keep its lead in the Quadrangular League. With comparatively small expense, the University could establish a school of medicine. The appropriation for such a cause would not be unjustly asked our legislature this winter. If K. U. expects to keep her place in the file of Universities she must make rapid strides in such undertakings. The JOURNAL would like to know whether or not we are to have an athletic meeting this winter. The one last year proved a success in every way, and we should surpass all of last year's undertakings. The University can boast of having some excellent wrestlers, who were not among our number last year. ternoon. Mrs. Lease is undoubtedly one of the best woman speakers in the United States, and should she be called by her party to speak here again we feel safe in saying that a large audience will greet her. Mrs. M. E. Lease spoke to an enthusiastic audience of working men, students and professors at the rink on Monday af- Chancellor Snow's weather report for September says that the mouth was a little above the average in rainfall and mean temperature. There was but one frost and the sky has been unusually clear. The total rainfall for the nine months ending with September has been 33.02 inches. This is 3.45 inches more than that of any preceding year of the Chancellor's report. The Santa Fe and the Union Pacific each carried tame crowds of students to K. C. last Wednesday afternoon. But before the return trip, spirits had revived, ard passengers bound for points beyond Lawrence will probably long remember their perilous ride with "a load of people bound for the insane asylum." Miss Cady, State Secretary for the Young Women's Christian Association, visited the University Association last week and announced that the State Committee has selected Lawrence for the State convention of the Young Women's Christian Association to be held Nov. 2d to 5th. The University organization feel it an honor not only to the association, but to the University, and will do all in their power to make the stay of their guests as pleasant as possible. The annual meeting of the Athletic association was called to order Friday, Sept. 29th, by Chancellor Snow. The reports for the past year, of the secretary, Platt; the treasurer, Moody; and the chairman of the financial committee, Professor Carruth, were read and adopted. The officers elected for the following year are: President, A. O. Garrett, '93; secretary, James V. May, '93; treasurer, R. K. Moody; executive committee at large, James Orr, W. H.

Archie Hogg and Earl Steinberger, committee on base ball. Prof. H. B. Newson and Miss Whitman, committee on tennis. W. J. Coleman and Warren Edwards, committee on rowing. A new book and stationery store that is sure to be popular with the students has been opened by Mr. Tracy Learnard, a former student. He will be assisted by Miss Lilian Popeneo, who is so favorably known by all book buyers. There is already in stock a full line of pens, pencils and stationery, and some very fine etchings. A stock of books will be ready for your inspection in a few days, and also the finest line of stationery for correspondence ever seen in Lawrence. All the latest styles will be found in stock. Mr. Learnard is ready to take orders for University text books now, and will have a full stock of them on hand for the second term. He can make it a special object to students to buy quiz books of him. Account books of all kinds in stock. Call in and get a handy pocket tablet free, and see the World's Fair souvenir cards, the finest souvenir of the great fair that has yet appeared.

This generous gift comes from George F. Gaumer, natural- list for the British museum. Mr. Gaumer graduated from the University of Kansas with the class of 1876. He was the first man to take the course in natural history under Professor Snow, and was with Prof. Snow in several [of his Colorado collecting trips]. While at the University he took an active part in the management of the Natural History Society, which society then filled the place of the present Science Club. Mr. Gaumer has been in Yucatan for the last twelve years collecting specimens for the British Museum. His gift to the University shows that he has not forgotten his alma mater. The collection will be placed in Snow Hall and known as the "Gaumer Collection." The following are the results of some of the football games played last day; University of Pennsylvania vs. Franklin Marshall Institutes, 48-0; Cornell vs. Pennsylvania College, 16-0; Trinity College vs. Williams College, 14-4; College of City of New York vs. New York Y.

PHARMACY NOTES. Pinkston will be back next week. Hurrah for the Pharmics! Pickates will be back next week The class in crystallography will begin blow pipe work next week. A number of the boys went to Kansas City to see the Priests of Pallas parade. O. H. Parker, a Junior of '91-'92, has returned and entered upon his Senior studies. The Senior class has an enrolment of twenty. This is the largest class since the University adopted the Pharmacy course. Harry Fox spent Saturday and Sunday at his home in Atchison. His relatives were all there and Harry reports a pleasant time. M. E. Gilmore, a graduate of Washburn college in '91, has enrolled with us. He has the required actual experience for graduation. The Senior class held their election last week. The officers chosen were as follows: H. I. Fox, President; Miss Chapin, Vice-President; P. B. Barber, Secretary and Treasurer; H. E. Jenkins, Chas. Joslin and Perry Barber, committee on class yell; Miss Northup, Mr. Strother, and Mr. Clark committee on class colors. Owing to the quiet nature of the Pharmics, the election of a sergeant-at-arms was unnecessary. The Pharmaceutical society will meet this afternoon in the chemistry lecture room. A full attendance of both Juniors and Seniors is necessary. The proceedings of the society will be the election of officers for the ensuing year, after which Prof. Sayre, (a member on the Executive Committee of the International Pharmaceutical Congress), will entertain the members with a very interesting talk about the meeting of that society held at Chicago in August. It is hoped the society this year will meet with unprecedented success. Remember Jackson's laundry, C. W. Baldridge, agent.
