THE COLLEGE WORLD.
Cupid, with his sat tide dart,
Floored a lil the maden's heart.
Crying: "Ah, thy fate is sealed,
Naught can from my arrows shield;
Yield thee to thy foe!"
But the maiden answered; "Rogue,
Broken hearts are not in vogue.
My escapis are not so narrow,
Thou hast only lost an arrow,
I have gained a bean."

Bromide Pictures.
The views for the World's Fair, which Professor Williston and Mr. Tucker will soon complete, very well illustrate the progress in photography which has been made by the University during the past year. A year ago silver prints were used for such views as these Bromide prints are seldom found in the west, being very expensive; yet they are far superior to ordinary prints. They do not have the gloss of ordinary photographs; yet they are more realistic. They are very similar to crayon portraits.
The University can now do better photographic work than any photographing establishment in Lawrence or Kansas City, as it has superior equipment. Professor Blake hopes to have a room especially adapted to photographic work in the new physics building. The "photographic studio" is now in the attic of Snow Hall.
H. J. Withington returned Monday from Galesburg, Ill., where he attended the Western Deputation Conference of the Young Men's Christian Association. This conference meets once a year, and is composed wholly of college men, two from each state, who meet to discuss and formulate plans for conducting the work of their respective districts during the coming year. In the United States there are three deputation conferences held yearly; one in the south, one in the east and one in the west, and these are conducted by the International College committee. The two deputation men from each state manage the college associations of their state and are in regular correspondence with the International Committee in New York. Each state executive committee pays the expenses of the delegates from its own state. Mr. Withington will give a report of the conference at Music Hall next Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. He will endeavor to set forth the point which appeared to him most practical to the Christians of K. U.
An exhibition game of base ball will be played with Washburn one week from next Saturday on McCook Field. This will be the first game of the season. As Washburn is making especial preparation, an interesting game is expected.
COMMUNICATIONS.
The Editor of the Review, in the last number, complains of the lack of interest in the publication which is shown by the studedits. Allow me to say that there is just one sufficient reason for this lack of interest. The students of the University are not allowed to have a voice in the management of the Review. It is one of the fundamental characteristics of human nature to be interested in, and work for those things in which one has some personal property. There is but one way to increase permanently the interest in the Review, and that is to make it possible for those who so desire to become stockholders in the company and have a voice in the selection of officers and the management of the publication. When the writer, with several other students, asked to obtain shares of Review stock, he was told that there were none for sale. The attempt to keen honors and privileges in the hands of a select few will sooner or later result in making those honors no honors at all, especially when it is necessary, in order to keep them, to use disreputable methods, and to fly in the face of the institution of the organization by controlling shares which, to all outward appearances, are not owned by anyone.
