LAWRENCE, KAN., SAT. JAN. 11, 1902
The subject for the Bryan prize essay is published. It is hoped that many students will note the fact by trying to secure the prize. Only a few entered the contest last year, but it is a thing well worth the trying, and every student being eligible the list of contestants should be longer. The more contestants the more honor in winning.
The football annual that will be out in the near future is to be a book well worth buying. It is devoted wholly to pure athletics and is published with the aim to kill professionalism and encourage amateurism. Every one who is interested in pure athletics should make an effort to have this book. It gives a large space to Kansas more than to the other colleges and universities represented, showing photographs of the team, games and individual men.
Next week the WEEKLY election comes off again, and from the present outlook there will be some strong competition for editor-in-chief. It is to be hoped that both parties will manage their campaigns in perfectly honorable ways. In college politics a man's character and disposition are shown more clearly perhaps than anywhere else, and it reflects little credit on him who buys votes or on him who allows himself to be bought. If a man comes up, gives you a little confidence talk about the worth of the respective candidates and for whom you should vote, have you a share, all right, take his advice for what it is worth, make inquiries concerning each and then use your own judgment regarding them. But if he offers to buy you a share to have you vote his way, refuse in such a manner that he will be ashamed of asking you. He will respect you far more, and in the long run you will win more favor, for no one despises bribery more than the man who uses it. Many would be surprised if they knew how corrupt college politics are and how many underhand means are used, and how much bribery. Men sell out each other in a way that is despicable. In the coming election we are glad to state that both parties have said that they are not going to buy extra
shares and give them away to the weaklings ever ready to take them. We congratulate the party leaders who started this good work. Also those who followed suit. Let us trust that their statements will prove true.
The poem, "A Fire Mist and a Planet," the author of which we have been seeking the past few weeks, has been traced to Prof. Carruth. Mr. C. L. Pirkis kindly sends us the full text :
EACH IN HIS OWN NAME.
A fire mist and a planet,
A crystal and a cell;
A jellyfish and a sourian,
And caves where the cavemen dwell;
Then a sense of law and beauty,
And a face turned from the clod
Some call it Evolution
And others call it God.
A haze on the far horizon,
The infinite tender sky;
The ripe, rich tints of the cornfields
And the wild gesees sailing high;
And all over upland and lowland
The charm of the goldenrod
Some of us call it Autumn,
And others call it God.
Like the tide on a crescent sea beach,
When the moon is new and thin.
Into our hearts high yearnings
Come welling and surging in
Come from the mystie ocean
Whose rim no foot has trod
Some of us call it Longing,
And others call it God.
A picket frozen on duty,
A mother starved for her brood.
Socrates drinking the hemlock,
And Jesus on the rood;
The million who humble and
nameless,
The straight hard pathway trod
Some call it Consecration.
And others call it God.
The Academy.
This poem has been attributed to several different sources and it only recently has it been traced to our Prof. Carruth. It is a very beautiful poem, one which any one should be glad to own.

The K. U. Mandolin Orchestra.
The Kansas University Concert Mandolin orchestra finished their trip in Topska last Saturday night, and most of the boys stayed over and came down to school on Monday. Rather unexpectedly the club proved to be a great success, reflecting much credit on the University and paying its promotors for their trouble.
The boys were out the full two weeks and played in eleven towns. They were greeted by large audiences in all except one or two, and that their work was appreciated was proven by the many cordial invitations to come again next year. The conduct of the boys was exceptionally good, and they would have returned with a clean record and the unanimous endorsement of the newspapers but for a blunder of mistaken identity which appeared in the Oskaloosa Independent and was copied by the local papers. In every other case the papers were loud in their praise, both of the conduct and of the musical ability of the club. It is hoped this matter will be investigated and settled at once in justice both to the faculty and to the members of the club.
The following places were visited by the club: Oskaloosa, Hiawatha, Frankfort, Blue Rapids, Marysville, Washington,
Concordia, Beloit, Minneapolis, Wamego, Centralia, and each place was the scene of a happy reunion of old K. U. people. The boys were given a royal welcome everywhere, dances, receptions and dinners galore. At Frankfort Mr. Verne Pierson entertained the club at Christmas dinner. At Minneapolis, Mr. Lon Flint did all in his power to make the club's visit a pleasant one, and at Centralia the boys owe their good time to Will Skinner, Will Morrison and Maurice Clippinger. Dances followed the concert in almost every town, and these added much to the pleasure of the trip.
The boys are well satisfied with their outing, and expect at the home concert, which will be given soon, to show the Lawrence people what they have been doing abroad. The club will appear at Topeka on Kansas University Day, Monday, Jan. 27. at the Kansas Mid-Winter Exposition. It will make several other short trips next month and will probably make another short tour during the spring vacation.

RELIEF.
There is nothing like Asthmalene. It brings instant relief, even in the worst cases. It cures when all else fails.
The Rev, C. F. WELLS, of Villa Ridge Hill,
says: "Your trial bottle of Asthmahaline received in good condition. I can not tell you be thankful I feel for the good derived from it. I was a slave, chained with putrid sore throat and Asthma for ten years, I despaired of ever being cured. I saw your advertisement for the cure of this dreadful and tormenting disease. Asthma, and thought you had overspoken yourself, but resolved to give it a trial. To my astonishment the trial acted like a charm. Send me a full-size bottle."

REV. DORMIS WEINHUSER
Avon Springs, N. Y., February 1901
Gentleman: I write this testimonial from a sense of duty, having tested the wonderful effect of your Asthmaine, for the cure of Asthma. My wife has been afflicted with spasmodic asthma for the past 12 years. Having exhausted my own skill as well as many others I chanced to see your sign upon your windows on E13th Street. New York. I at once obtained a bottle of Asthmaine. My wife commenced taking it about the first of November. I very soon noticed a radical improvement. After using my bottle her Asthma has disappeared and she is entirely free from all symptoms; I feel that I can consistently recommend the medicine to all who are afflicted with this distressing disease. Yours respectfully.
