On account of the incomplecy of the weather last Friday evening, the regular meeting of the Bryan club was postponed until Monday evening, Oct. 1. After the minutes of the last meeting had been read and approved the president announced that the enrollment, as yet incomplete, had passed the zco mark. Arrangements were made to give the Hon Chas A Towne a royal reception on Oct. 3, the date of his arrival in Lawrence. A committee was appointed to confer with the local committee to make arrangements for music and for the march from the Eldridge house to South park. Quite a number of citizens from the city were present, several of whom won the applause of the audience by their enthusiastic speeches After the K U Bryan Club adjourned the Lawrence Bryan Club perfected a permanent organization with a membership of over 400. The clubs have agreed to co-operate as far as practicable in all rallies between now and election time. Hope runs high in both clubs for the success of the party which stands for the preservation of our republican form of government. Mr W A Stacy of Burlington was visiting his brother Gene Stack this week. On account of the damp cold and the lack of any heat on the hill, the library was closed last week for nearly two days Miss Estelle Riddle went to Kansas City Saturday. Miss Anna Graham from Peabody, is visiting her sister, Laura. Miss Mause Brown spent the last of the week visiting in Kansas City. Miss Frances Babcock returned Monday from a two month's visit in Colorado. Harry S.McKeer arrived in Lawrence Saturday direct from Niagara Falls after a summer spent at Wilkesbarre, Pa. He visited from Sunday to Tuesday of this week at his home in Valley Falls. Perl Decker has been campaigning southwestern Missouri and the border counties of Kansas in the interest of Bryan and the democrats. He made a speech in Galena, Kansas, this week. Boyton, Davis, Black. Morton and Wilcox of the football men went up to Topake Saturday to see the game between Haskell and Washburn. Marion Kooogler's mother from El Dora do was visiting her this week. When the Registrar looked up the mather early in the week there were 175 enrollment cards not returned. Individual reminders were sent around to the delinquents with orders for the return of the cards by Thursday, or take the consequences. Most of the cards are in now. Albert Rifle, B. S., $^4$, came here from the Pacific Coast a short time ago. Mr. Hedson, son of the prominent officials on a southern road, came in the first part of the week in a private car with several noted railway men.

The regular Wednesday afternoon meeting was this week in charge of the delegates whom the Association bad sent to the Y W C A conference at Lake Geneva this summer. Miss Stafford and Miss Ewing each gave a brief and interesting account of the impression the conference had made upon her, and at the close of the meeting a number of girls evinced their interest by asking questions about points especially interesting them. Miss Stafford told the story of Sooboongan Ammal, a converted princess of India, whose presence and history made a deep impression upon the delegates at Geneva. Miss True, a sister of the former secretary of the state association, has enrolled in the University and is rooming at the Y W C A House. Mention is already being made to the state convention to be held at Topeka beginning October 25. It is hoped K U will send a large delegation. The "mysteries" of the party for freshman girls last Saturday afternoon proved to be most delightful ones, and each of the forty present was glad she had "left her algebra at home" and attended. Every Bible study class but one has held at least one meeting, and the attendance and interest is very encouraging to the chairman of the committee and the Association. Wednesday Miss Meredith gave a report of the meeting of Y. W. C. A. secretaries which she attended at Chicago last week. About 390 Associations were reported, with a membership of over 19,000.

Roberts enters into hunting from the moose's rather than the hunter's point of view, depicting its defiant lordship, its passions and its undoing. "Poultry and Poultry Breeding in the United States," by H. S. Babcock, will be a positive revelation to the readers. "The Place of the Automobile as a Sport Factor," is the absorbing question of the day. "Coursing on Western Prairies," breathes the atmosphere of one of the most popular sports of the west. "The Development of the American Trotter," is naturally interesting in connection with the modern speedway development. Russia provides the long resident with ample sport and Wirt Gerrare presents in "Some Russian Sports," vivid pictures of peculiar hunting methods. The shooting season makes "The Woodcock and his Ways" and the "jacksnips out of the North" of peculiar timeliness and value. Charles F. Holder defends the maligned maneating shark, and satisfactorily proves that "Big Sharks as Game" provide a mighty fund of sport. Sport royal, too, for anglers is in "Un the Ristigouche for Salmon." With the opening of the season of that great game—"College Football Twenty-five Years Ago," by a Princeton graduate of that era will be an entertaining prelude, of that era will be an understaking preface. Canoeists have concluded their season's camping will welcoming the discussion of "The Real Canoeing" by R. B. Burchard, of its pioneers. At this time, when all eyes were straining far eastward, "The Adventures of Marco Polo," the greatest traveler the world has ever seen, are of special timeliness in the October Outing. He lived in China more than 700 years ago, and his striking story in Outing is from the pen of Dr. E. L. Japan's co-operation with powers in China gives especial interest to Mr. Terry's description, "A wheel in the Heart of Old Japan." "The First Lesson in Dog Breaking" is seasonable advice, and "The Doom of Michigan's Grayling," points a timely moral. The whole number is profusely illustrated. CR Spain has just received a letter from Clem Wick who is teaching in the Dickinson Co. High school. Wick will be remembered as the star of last year's senior play. He says he thinks he is getting along nicely in his work but doubts if he could convince others of it. Wick's friends, however are convinced. Miss Gertrude Hill of Topeka, was here Sunday. DE LA BARTH-AYRES. Brilliant Wedding of Two to Trail's Most Popular Young People. A quiet but elegant wedding occurred on Wednesday, Sept. 19, at "Holly Fern Place," the residence of Mr. W. H. Aldridge, manager of the Canadian Smelting Works, the high contracting parties being Mr. Jules de D巴atte and Miss Harriet Hull Ayres. There were no invited guests, only the immediate family being present. . Miss Ayres is the daughter of Rev. and Mrs, W. W. Ayres of Lawrence, Kansas, and is a graduate of the State University, belonging to the class of '97, and is a member of the Pi Beta Phi fraternity. She has made her home for the past year with her uncle, Mr. W, H. Aldridge. She is an accomplished, charming young lady, and a great favorite, not only in her former home, but in her adopted one. The beautiful home on the steep banks of the Columbia River was decorated in garlands of evergreen, and on all sides were masses and wreathes of flowers, while in a circular recess of the parlor, facing east, was erected an altar draped in white, adorned with cedar and ferns, covered with pansies and violets and bouquets of white carnations. Mr. De La Barth has been for three years connected with the large Canadian smelter, and is also well and favorably known in Colorado and Salt Lake City. The many and beautiful presents, with congratulations by letter and telegrams from absent friends, attest to the high esteem in that the young people are held, while the sincere good wishes of Rossland, Trail and smelter friends were extended them on their journey.—Trail Creek News, Trail Creek, B. C. SMILES. Is a dead parrot a polygon? --- "I'll be darned" said the sock as he went into the mending basket When a fellow gets a letter From a maiden he devines Many a precious little secret Written in between the lines. Written in between the lines. Funny, too, in Greek and Latin. How we meet with like designs, Strange how many happy meanings Oft are read between the lines. "Why can't a fisherman be generous?" "Because his business makes .bim self- fish." "Fame has taken men from the forge and from the ploughshare, but she has never yet reached over a picket fence and yanked a dude out of a hammock."—Walter Williams. Freshman to Senior—"Can Prof. Penf play that pipe organ up there in the chapel? I have been to chapel every day since school began, expecting to hear the pipe organ and Penf always plays that little one down in front." WHAT THE FRESHMAN WONDERS. If the world is flat. If we shall have anything to do with the millenium. If there is anything we don't know. If the stars will shine when we graduate If a person can see the North Pole. If there be an K, U. if we should go. Wanted—An automatic self-adjusting crow-bar to push some one off the earth,—Freshman & Co. The Basket ball team promises to be a strong one this year. Among the new men are Thrailkill, who has played with Denver, Williams who was with Washington Jefferson, Clark of Massachusetts and Hoose, who has played some in the west. All these men being experienced, the team will doubtlessly be a strong one and do some good work. Manager Russel is arranging for a more extensive trip than last year. He is trying to get a game with Fond du Lac, Wis. This team, which claims the championship of the world, plays a somewhat different game from what the boys plays here. They cage themselves in a wire netting so the ball is never out of play thus making a fast game. Their record last year is thirty-three out of thirty-seven games. At a class meeting held last Tuesday the middle Laws elected their officers for the ensuing year. After a sharp contest L M Hyde was beaten by I F Benest who was declared president. The other offices were filled as follows: Vice Pres. Geo M Vinton. Secy. L M Gensman. ...as Gail Carey. Strope and Ramsey went to Topeka Friday. R. B.Wagstaff Staple and Fancy Groceries. 847 Mass.
