Oratorical Contest at Winfield.
The State Oratorical Contest took place at Winfield on March 7, but reports therefrom were received too late for last week's issue.
First place was won by Homer Hoch, of Baker,second place by I. C. Quinn, of Ottowa, and third place by Robert Hamilton, of Winfield.
Mr. Hoch seemed trained to the law on delivery, but at the outset concentrated his sound too hard on his elaborate gestures and as a result he lost grip on his lines and began clutching spasmodically at his ministerial coat buttons. The confusion was only temporary however, and he was soon on his feet and into the race at a winning pace.
Mr. Quinn, of Ottawa, also stood gazing into vacancy for about two minutes, while the audience kicked holes through the floor out of sympathy for the troubled speaker. The gentleman from Ottawa finally returned from the land of your memory and finished strong.
Both Mr. Hoch and Mr. Quinn are strong men from the standpoint of college oratory and have considerable prestige in state oratorical circles, but the judges should have cut both orations down to the minimum on poor memory work.
Josiah Kramer our representative received fifth place but certainly deserved a better position. He made a good appearance, had a finely committed oration, and showed up strong on delivery. The winners of second, third, fourth and fifth places respectively were separated by the narrowest margin, and Mr. Kramer would have won second place easily had not one of the judges on thought and composition marked him extremely low. He received third position from two judges on delivery and second place from the other.
Tremendous enthusiasm was displayed at the contest, but all rough work was eliminated. K. U. was woefully lacking in rooters until a patriotic Mr. Johnson, professor of Science in the Summer county high school, at Wellington, and a graduate of our University arrived on the scene with forty of his pupils thoroughly drilled on the greatest college yell in existence. The boys particularly directed their yells at Baker, who thought K. U. was at the contest good and strong.
The contest, as a whole, was perhaps one of the best ever held by the state organization. The opera house was packed to its limit and scores were unable to secure tickets. Over $500 was realized by the oratorical association. T.

In is reasonable to expect that the demand for seats will reach the limit for the Whiteside engagement for next Friday 21. This fine actor will play Shylock on this occasion in Shakespeare's most beautiful Comedy, "The Merchant of Venice." His Company is large and with Miss Wolston as Portia, William Mack as Gratiano, Lawrence Evart as Bassino, together with the exquisite stage' setting provided, the event should be a memorable.
Miller Millinery Co. cordially invites all to attend their display of spring millinery Thursday, March 20.

Having put this cleverness to rare advantage in assisting her husband, and also in acts of individual merit, she has been able to secure for herself some gorgeous jewels, which she admirably displays in a specialty with Mr. Walters in the third act of "Side Tracked."

XYZ-Burke Debate.
The XYZ-Burke Debate was held last Friday evening. An energetic crowd of boys was present despite the fact that Shore-Ares was in progress down town. The debate was lively and interesting from start to finish. Burke, represented by Messrs Mills and Rodkey had the affirmative of the question, Resolved, That Labor Unions are detrimental to the best interests of the working man. The boys handled the question exceedingly well and brought forth many good arguments. XYZ was represented by Messrs Boyle and Logan. They put up a stiff resistance and by the invaluable aid of statistics were able to prove that the negative of the question was true. Prof. Cone, H. Miller and W. Williams acted as judges. The result was two to one in favor of the XYZ club.
