Twelfth Night.
Friday and Saturday night of next week the Athletic Association will present Shakespeare's great comedy "Twelfth Night" or "What You Will." This will be the crowning event of the University year and it goes without saying that all students will attend, and thus show their loyalty to the association and interest in its welfare. No pains have been spared in mounting, casting and costuming the play. New scenery has been painted by Rhee. The music will be furnished by the University Banjo Club, under the direction of Prof. Saunders. Prof. Blake will introduce some novel electric light effects. The piece will be one beautiful entrancing spectacle from beginning to end. It behooves every athlete in the University not only to attend but to interest as many of his friends as possible, so that the association may not only achieve an artistic success but a financial one as well. The association has decided to devote the net proceeds of the play to a gymnasium building fund, thus insuring a well equipped gymnasium in the near future. Since this action of the association several hundred dollars have been promised the fund by friends of the University. Now is the opportunity for all interested to make a united effort to secure to the association a sufficient fund for the carrying out of its plans. "A Mid Summer Night's Dream" netted the association over seven hundred and fifty dollars. It depends on each student whether or not Twelfth Night does as well.

Students.
The divorce question was discussed before the historical and Political Seminary last Friday; there were papers on the Statistics, the Causes and the Proposed Remedies of the divorce eyil. The papers were read by the Misses Radford, Hardy and Tinsley, respectively, and brought out many interesting points. The number of divorces is increasing faster than the population and the number of marriages. South Carolina is the only state in the Union which does not grant divorces. The tendency of the newly admitted states is toward bad laws regulating divorce. They are granted on too trivial causes, and state laws give too many opportunities for evasions. Divorces are now granted for forty-two causes. Laws should be more uniform throughout the state; should restrict marriage by requiring qualifications. There must be education of the heart; a higher ideal of marriage; and stronger public opinion condemning indiscriminate divorce.
New Millinery.
If you need anything in the drug line call at Straffan & Zimmerman's.
Mrs. Gardener has just received a new and elegant assortment of all the latest spring styles in millinery. All these goods will be on exhibition Easter week.
Mr. Powers' Lecture.
Notwithstanding the bad weather, a large and appreciative audience greeted Leland T. Powers at the opera house Monday evening. Mr. Powers showed himself an impersonator of rare talent. The characters of the play which he gave were impressed with great distinctness on those present. His rendition of the part of "Dear Dickie" was exceptionally good. Owing to the lack of costuming, his women were somewhat less realistic than the other parts; but the way he disengaged himself from their skirts was the perfection of art. More fault might be found with the play itself than with Mr. Powers' performance of it. It is hard to conceive that Garrick would tell of his experience at the merchant's house to such fellows as Dick. Again Mis' Ada's actions at the last of the play are scarcely in accordance with the character which she is given in the beginning of.
On the whole, however, the play was well suited to the dramatis personal. The last piece which Mr. Powers gave is evidently something which he has not been working at very long. He showed some hesitancy during the first part of it. But the handkerchiefs which came out during the speech of the prisoner at the bar, furnished the highest compliment to his power.
The Independents gave another of their pleasant dances at Fraternal Aid ball Tuesday night. About thirty couples danced to the entrancing music furnished by Prof. Saunders' orchestra. During the evening lunch was served by Weidemann. The party dispersed at a late hour, after a most enjoyable evening.
Elecrical Cookery.
Prof. Blake entertained his audience at Kansas City last Friday by practical experiments in electrical cookery. The experiments were very successful. He roasted and fried beef, fryed eggs, and baked pies and pan cakes. He showed the great convenience of the electrical stove. It could be placed on the table or even piano without doing injury, while the window in the side permitted a young lady to sew, or even play on the piano, while watching the cooking of the dinner. The audience did not partake of the feast prepared by the Professor, but it is safe to say that if some one had made a start they would have made away with it in short order. Heretofore the chief interest in the lectures of Prof. Blake has been shown by the gentlemen, but we may now expect the ladies to show much more interest than they have in the past.
Last Saturday a new oratorical association, to be known as the Central Kansas Oratorical Association, was formed at McPherson, Kansas. The association will comprise, McPherson College, Cooper Memorial College, of Sterling, Central College, of Enterprise, Bethany College, of Lindsborg, and other colleges of like standard which will be admitted. The first annual meeting of the association will be held next February at McPherson.
As chairman of the committee on adulterations of the Kansas Pharmaceutical Association, Prof. Sayre is receiving specimens of medicinal substances from various parts of the State to ascertain whether or not they come up to the pharmacopoeial standard of purity. This work will keep Professor Sayre and his assistants busy until the annual meeting of the association which occurs at Wichita, May 23, 24 and 25.
