A Lecture on Liquid Air.
The University in general and the chemistry department in particular were quite heavily visited last Tuesday. The occasion was the April meeting of the Kansas City section of the American Chemical Society and the chief attraction was Dr. Franklin's talk on liquid air.
Mr. Miller, of Kansas City Manual, brought about fifty pupils with him in a special car, and besides the Topeka chemists some thirty or forty high school students came down to the lecture.
Because of the fact that the Kansas City crowd had to leave on the nine o'clock train the hour for the lecture was set for seven. In spite of the fact that the talk was not advertised and intended especially for members of the society and their friends, when the president, Prof Baily, called the meeting to order, the Physics building lecture room was crowded to its utmost capacity. The usual formalities of the society were dispensed with and Prof Bailey introduced the speaker of the evening.
After a brief review of the history of liquifaction of gases, and explanation of process by which our machine converts the atmosphere into a liquid, Prof. Franklin gave a number of striking experiments to show the low temperature of the liquid; freezing a large mercury hammer, some alcohol, and pieces of apple and beefsteak which almost immediately became hard and brittle, the steak resembling in its appearance very much strawberry taffy.
After burning some charcoal and steel watch springs in a quantity of liquid air from which the nitrogen had been allowed to boil out, the Professor measured the temperature of the liquid air by means of a hydrogen thermometer which he had constructed for the purpose, and found it to be about 190 degrees centgrade.

Prof. Diener has received a model of the cylinders of the Baldwin Locomotives used on the Santa Fe road. It came as a gift from the manufacturers and is quite an interesting piece of mechanism.

The following clipping on petty thieving was taken from the Daily Californian:
The verb "to swipe" means "to steal" but there seems to be a wide difference of opinion as just what the verb "to swipe" may mean.
The last among the students of collecting anything as mementos has assumed such porportions as to be quite a problem. When the custom first started the students usually confined their efforts to objects of little or no value, such as posters, cardboard signs and little things of that nature. But this soon became so common that they were no longer sought. Immediately the students turned their attention toward more expensive objects. This process has kept up until the actions of some of the students in appropriating to themselves anything in sight under the pretense of wanting to decorate their rooms has become positively disgraceful. As long as the student has no use for what he pillers he considers that his actions cannot be constrained in the light of stealing but only as a sort of practical joke; that he is justified in taking anything no matter of how much value it may be to the owner so long as he personally wants it to decorate his room. If any other person but a University student were to help himself to objects one-half the value that the average student does he would find himself in the common jail before night. There should not be two standards of moral conduct, one for the students and another for the ordinary person.

For esthetic purposes it may be the time-honored stiff collar, with tie, should have first place, but when there is introduced or rather re-introduced an article of apparel which has merits undoubtedly surpassing those of the strictly conventional, it can be no fair or progressive mind that will wholly condemn it. If you will take the word of one who has given stocks a summer's trial you will believe for general convenience and coolness, the stock greatly outpoints the collar. Having no starch, it readily absorbs perspiration and thus keeps the neck clean and dry where the collar does neither. Moreover, during the
Editor of the K. U. WEEKLY:
Out of fairness to both sides of the question, will you please print this letter in defense of the "stock."
As to our invading the women's wardrobe, I think you will not have to go back very far in history to find the stock mentioned and shown in pictures as distinctively a men's institution; neither by reference nor by picture has it ever come under the eyes of your reader in connection with the feminine wardrobe. Neither for that matter is the kilt a woman's garment
It must be admitted that in some of the colors and combinatihns now shown the stock, to an esthetic eye may become offensive. The fault here lies in the wearer and not in the stock
Good taste is not possessed by everyone and the one who lacks taste is likely to offend the one who possesses it. This is bound to be so in a community of differently constituted persons. But in this respect the stock is no worse a culprit than the "loud" tie, and the tie has as yet called forth no adverse editorial comment from your columnus.
So, as a cool, comfortable and eminently sensible addition to the negligee summer costume you will still find many of your readers ready to exclaim "Long live the stock!"

To Editor WEEKLY;
Well, we wonder what Baker, Ottawa, Washburn, etc., will say as to the action of the Inter-State Oratorical Association in the matter of the Kansas toast at the meeting in St Paul next Wednesday, April 30. This toast is, by tacit understanding, supposed to go the victor receiving second place at the state contest who, in our case, by some queer maneuvers of late quite common in contests, happens to be the Ottawa orator. But it has appeared to the Interstate Association as being but justice to merit to give the honor of this toast to Josiah Kramer, the K. U. orator. This is gratifying to old K. U. since it shows that our orator stands second place in the estimate of the Interstate Association. It would be but fair and well if some of the Kansas newspapers would take note of this as the other colleges undoubtedly will. J.B.W.
"Merry" Katie Emmett will play her big spectacular production, "Waifs of New York," here on Thursday, May 1. The Company carries a car load of special scenery, and the fire scene with Miss Emmett's escape, the bridge scene with the moving trains, is pronounced by all who have seen it, to be the most realistic piece of mechanism ever produced upon the American stage. Miss Emmett's continued successes have won for her a high place in the esteem of the American theatre going public. She is one of the few ladies who have been honored with membership in the B. P. O. Elks and is also a member of 32 unions. A repetition of her successes should crown the effort of Miss Emmett on this occasion and the public can show their appreciation of humor and pathos that this attraction provided for.
