5. 6. 7. SMITH ON TAXATION. Senator from the Big Seventh Speaks to University Students. Senator F. Dumont Smith or Kinsley, author of the tax bill before the last Kansas legislature, addressed the students of the University in chapel Friday morning upon the subject of taxation. The chapel was crowded and the closest attention was given the Senator during his entire talk. Senator Smith treated the subject from its historical and sociological standpoints. BASE BALL CANDIDATES. But few men have signed up for the various places upon the base ball team. With the prospects of the splendid trip which is in view, there ought to be fifty men working out now. As yet the only men who have signed are as follows; Catcher - Coulson, Johnson, Ise. Kinne. Pitcher—C. Morgan, Jay Mack Love, Lapham. First base—Henry, Briley and Brownlee. Second base—Wilkinson, Eby. Third base—Pyle, D. Morgan Klaumann. Short stop—Chase, Woodford Outfield—D. Morgan, Sexton Henry, C. Morgan, Woodford Burgess, Mains. IN SOCIETY The "Society belles" of the University have seized at Leap Year as a fine excuse for paying back their indebtedness to the other sex for the tireless attention they have been paying for the past eight years, and just at the first the girls seemed really in danger of running the matter in the ground, so anxious are they to get even. It won't last long, however, for they are already beginning to realize that it may in time get to be just a trifle hard on their pocket books. Perhaps hereafter they will think of the man's side of that to a little more effect than before they had experience of their own in that line. But it is certainly a great deal of sport for both the real and the make-believe girls, and the change is very welcome, however much courage it may take for a "wee little bit of a woman" to lead a burly six-footer through the misty mazes of the waltz. The Senior girls were the first to start the march by an affair at the L.O. O.F. hall last Saturday night, and everybody was perfectly satisfied with the evening, except, perhaps the poor unpopular men who had to st out dances disconsolately in the dressing room, wondering if girls felt bad when they were decorating the wall. The other classes are following in the lead of their dignified sisters. Arrangements for the Nebraska Debate The Debating Council have found considerable difficulty in satisfying Nebraska in regard to the question for the annual debate between the two schools. The first question submitted was rejected. In regard to the second question sent, "Resolved, that the best interests of the United States no longer require an appeal to the Monroe Doctrine as a national principle," Nebraska wrote asking what we meant by the Monroe Doctrine and also if we understood the words "an appeal to" as meaning "the maintenance of." Kansas telegraphed a reply stating that they understood by the Monroe Doctrine the principles as laid down by Monroe in his famous message. Nebraska's reply intimated that Monroe's ideas were a little mixed and that the only way in which the debaters could come to a final clinch would be by discussing an abbreviated part of the original Doctrine. Yesterday Kansas submitted four questions for Nebraska to speculate upon in the hope that the latter could find one which would satisfy her. Masks - . - - - at Hoadley's.

PHARMACY ALUMNI NOTES Change your drinks for a while for your stomach's sake and try Raymond's "Pink Tea." The fresh sassafras is clean, bright and strong. Last week the Corresponding Secretary suffered under a combined attack of la grippe and tonsilitis, being confined to his bed for several days. During the period of his illness he attempted to dictate a few notes for the Weekly. As a result, there are some corrections to be made. "A. Hayes '01" should read "A. Hargis '01;" "O. S. Dickey" should be "E. S. Dickey '02." "Our alumni are being reorganized by the local Retail Drug Association" was intended to read, "In the organization of the Local Retail Druggists' Associations, our alumni are getting their share of the offices." H. I. Fox '94 of Atchison left the drug business sometime ago and is now interested in a saddlery firm. T. J. McCampbell '01, who has conducted the Crystal Pharmacy at Topeka for the past two years, opened up a drug store the early part of the winter on Vine St. K. C., Mo. H. A. White '91, leading drug-gist of Eudora, Kans., was in the city on business last Thursday night. M. R. Mason '96 has again returned to San Francisco after having spent the summer in Alaska. Mr. Mason is still in the U. S. Marine Hospital Service. A. T. Noble '02 paid a visit to Lawrence and K. U. friends this week. Evidently the wheels did not move fast enough for Art in pharmacy, so he is at work with something that will go faster an Automobile Co. in Wichita. Once more we have ascertained through one of the members of the Association as to where Fred Diestelhorst '02 has secreted himself. He is now practicing his art in Fresno, California, is doing well and thinks it a fine place. Rid yourself of Corns, Raymond's Corn Cure is just as sure as a hatchet and is free from pain. There is some talk of an indoor or meet between Kansas and Missouri to be held in Convention hall, Kansas City, some time the latter part of March or the first of April. All the customary field events could be held except the hammer throw and discus. In the eastern part of the United States these indoor meets are among the best attended features of the athletic year and coming as they do when no other athletic events are in season, would no doubt arouse much enthusiasm. The management of the hall seem to be confident that it would be a drawing card and are very anxious to have it take place. An indoor meet has some advantages over the outdoor meets in that the spectators have a much better view, events can be pulled off in better time and announcements of times, distances, etc., made to better advantage.
