MANAGER PLANK RETURNS.
KANSAS VS. PURDUE.
BASE BALL TRIP.
Manager Plank's happy smile was seen once more at chapet exercises Thursday. He was highly enthusiastic over his eastern trip. As the representative of Kansas he was well received by the eastern universities. They were all favorably inclined towards K. U., but owing to previous contracts could not make as many engagements with us as had been hoped for. Chicago and Northwestern had their schedules filled out. Illinois had promised to play Nebraska if she came west. Purdue however, wanted to play provided we would give them a two-year contract. They will come here this year—October 29.
After circulating among the colleges of the Big Nine, Mr. Plank stopped at Washington. That University wants all the Kansas teams there this year. A definite date has been approved by the Athletic Board for the football schedule. Kansas will play on the St. Louis gronuds Nov. 12, 1904.
They are anxious to have a series of base ball games with us in the latter part of May, but the Athletic Board has not decided upon its schedule as yet. The list of prospective games will be submitted to the Board Monday or Tuesday. Besides the St. Louis games, the other outside games proposed by Manager Plank will be at Highland Park, Iowa University, Arkansas University, Oklahoma University, Texas and Colorado.
The Athletic Board met Thursday to hear the report of Manager Plank, who has just returned from the east, where he has been trying to arrange a foot ball schedule for next fall.
The three large games to be played on McCook field next fall are Purdue, Haskell and Colorado. Manager Plank says the schedule next fall will be a hard one for Kansas.
The board also decided to enlarge McCook field by moving the north fence back on the limit, a distance of twenty feet and make two base ball diamonds, giving more room for practice.
The track team schedule has not been fully arranged. The team is getting into good condition, and some fine work is expected next spring.
The base ball players are working out in the Gymnasium daily.
The students of the University of California intend to make February 26 a student labor day. The entire day will be used for improving the campus. Every student will work from eight in the morning to six at night.
He Tells of Interesting Events in Early Kansas History.
JAMES HORTON'S LECTURE.
Thursday night Hon. James Horton, of Kansas City, lectured to an appreciative audience of students and town's people in University Hall on the subject: "Early Days of Kansas." Mr. Horton was a resident of Lawrence during the territorial days of Kansas history. He lived here at the time of Quantrell's raid and occuping as he did an important place in the early history of the state, perhaps no living man is more intimately acquainted with those stirring events of early days than Mr.Horton
Mr. Horton is a fascinating story teller and not only was his collection of stories of more than ordinary interest but they all had a lesson to be learned from them.
Mr. Horton described some of the events of Quantrell's raid with a vividness that held his auditors' closest attention. He portrayed some of the early characters of Lawrence with such skill that one could imagine the individual was before one's eyes.
Perhaps the most interesting part of Mr. Horton's talk, historically, was his description of the election of E.G. Ross, of Lawrence, to the United States Senate over Thos. Carney, of Leavenworth. He told how at the last minute the Ross supporters decided to put up a legislative candidate; how the Ross ticket delegates were elected by a majority of one and the final election of Ross to the senate by one vote.
Then Mr. Horton gave a graphic description of the impeachment of President Johnson. The vote stood 35 for impeachment and 19 against. A change of one vote was sufficient to impeach Mr. Johnson and the republican leaders of the impeachment movement expected Mr. Ross to remember his party affiliation to party principles and vote for impeachment, but he refused. Mr. Horton said, "The judgement of history has shown that the impeachment of President Johnson would have been unwise and the fact that Mr. Johnson was not impeached is due to the high moral courage of E. G. Ross, senator from Kansas.
The freshmen of Minnesota University have given their full consent to the sophomore party, which the class of '06 intend to give shortly. This action suits everyone excepting the upper class men who had expected to see a sophomore-freshman scrap on the night in question.
The Haskell Indian basket ball team has been more than usually successful in playing the games scheduled on its foreign trip.
PROF. BLACKMAR RETURNS.
Prof. Blackmar has returned to his university work after a four weeks' absence. Prof. Blackmar has been giving a series of lectures upon "Processes of Distribution" to the graduate students, fellows and instructors in the Department of Political Economy at the University of Wisconsin. In addition to his regular course of lectures, Prof. Blackmar gave two general lectures to the student body of the university.
Prof. Blackmar expressed himself as exceedingly well pleased with the courteous treatment which he received at Madison. Comparing Wisconsin University with Kansas, Prof. Blackmar says: "They are stronger than we are, being somewhat better equipped as to appliances, thus making the work, not perhaps easier, but more satisfactory to the instructors."
The Professor says further that the students at Wisconsin perform their work better in some ways than our students.
The Wisconsin legislature has been more liberal to her educational institutions than that of Kansas and the result is many beautiful and commodious buildings.
"The University of Wisconsin has the advantages of us," says Prof. Blackmar, "in that the institution is some fifteen years older than ours, but the time will come perhaps in a few years when Kansas University will be her equal."

NO.18.
A GIFT FOR K. U.
In 1894 Dr. Bell gave land worth from $50,000 to $75,000 for the building of a Kansas University hospital.
Dr. S. B. Bell of Rosedale, Kansas, has given $25,000 to the Kansas University for the endowment of free beds in a hospital that is expected to be built on a site in Rosedale, given for that purpose in 1894 by Dr. Bell. The present gift of $25,000 is given as a memorial to Dr. Bell's wife, Eleanor Taylor Bell, now deceased.
The next Kansas legislature will be asked to appropriate $50,000 or $100,000 for the remaining funds necessary for the erection and equipment of the hospital. Such a hospital would not only be a great institution in itself but would offer the best clinical advantages to University medical students.
SEMI-FINAL DEBATE RESULTS.
