LAWRENCE, KAN., APRIL 28, 1900.
We notice by our exchanges that Arbor day was observed in most of the Kansas colleges, while at K. U., it passed unnoticed.
The K. U. base ball team is on its long tip this week, and the hearts of all the royal "fans" are with them. The WEEKLY hope to be able to chronicle a long series of victories.
The College Life published at Emporia college is making preparations to get out a commencement edition and the Baker Orange is also to get out a special edition soon. We wish you success, brethren, but we can't say we envy you at all.
A picture of Reson Jones, editor-in-chief, and Joe Sellards, business manager, of the Drake College Delphic for '00-'01, was received by the WEEKLY a few days ago. They are both fine looking young men and we are confident that they will conduct the Delphic perfectly satisfactorily. We should, however, like to see a picture of these two men after they have passed through the siege of getting out a college paper. It would be interesting to note the change in their expressions, the added lines of care and responsibility upon their faes, and the entire absence of that pleasant smile which characterizes them now.
The nomination of W. S. Hyatt for county attorney by the fusionists of Labette county certainly speaks well for his ability. There were three candidates against him for the nomination, Frank Lamb who graduated from K. U. in '95 and Senator George Campbell, but Hyatt was nominated on the second ballot. Mr. Hyatt graduated from the law school last year and at present is taking an arts course. He has won considerable distinction in debating circles here, having been one of the team that defeated the Missourians last year. He is an active worker and if elected, will serve the people of Labette county faithfully.
It is not generally known that there are several good schools and colleges in the Indian Territory, but such is the case. The general impression of the country is entirely erroneous. It is not a wild, desolate country. The hills and valleys are dotted with churches, schools and colleges. There are just as good people there as there are anywhere. It is the same as all new territories and that country certainly has a bright future before it. Among the leading schools of the Indian Territory is the Henry Kendall College at Muscogee in the Creek nation.
The Kendall Collegian which comes to our exchange table is one of the best exchanges.
ENGINEERING DEPARTM^TNT NOTES.
The supply pipe that was laid on Oread avenue, has been connected to the pipe supplying the University buildings. It is possible to secure a pressure of 300 pounds and four streams can be thrown over the dome of the main building from nozzles held at the ground.
Mr Fred Nichols has broken the Sophomore record for fast work. He turned out seventeen screws in a regular half day of four hours and forty-five minutes. The good records made previous to this time were those of Mr Battey, thirteen screws, and Mr Flickinger, fourteen screws.
The [Junior class in steam engineering went to Topeka last Tuesday where they visited the Santa Fe shops, besides several power plants and foundaries. Profs. Palmer and McMeans went with the class. The Sophomore class in machine designing will go on a similar visit three weeks from last Tuesday. A show case has been arranged in the shops, in which students work will be displayed. The exhibits will include forge work, filing, lath work and parts of machines constructed by [Juniors and Seniors,
The Cleveland Ball and Screw Company of Cleveland, Ohio, have supplied the department with an assortment of steel balls to be used in experimental work in connection with Mr. Yale's thesis experiment. Mr. Yale is working out a formula for ball earings in heavy machinery.
The Lincoln Oil Co of Cleveland, Ohio, has sent the department a case containing samples of all kinds of lubricating oils. These are valuable as object lessons when the classes study lubricators.
THE FACULTY SENIOR GAME
Will Occur on Saturday, May 5-The
Front of Maka Kona Base Ball
As usual the faculty have consented to play a game of base ball with the seniors. This year the much anticipated game will occur on Saturday, May 5. o1 McCook field. Of course the Seniors cannot play ball, and it is questionable if the faculty can play much better, but it is rumored that both teams can beat the 'Varsity nine; so that those who attend will see a fast game? But even if they can't play ball it will be worth eight or nine times the price of admission to see the wind blow H. Foster Jones around the circuit, and it would be an extraordinary sight to see E. D. Adams move faster than a walk, and it would be sort of funny to see Mr Lincoln get his eye on the ball.
All the engineers would laugh at Lucien Ira Blake, if he should get hit on the finger, and Lewis Lindsay Dyche would be in ecstatic bliss looking for flies in the outer garden.
All the gir's will be out when they learn that Archibald Hogg is going to play close to the grand stand. Martin Rice will also perhaps play on the bench which will be in the shadow of the grand stand.
Chancellor Snow assisted by the other base ball fands, including the ladies of the faculty will do intense rooting for the faculty nine.
Other men who are interested but who are not signed are Frank Wilson Blackmar, Charles Graham Dunlap, James Woods Green. George Barlow Penny, Erasmus Haworth and Arthur Tappan Walker, who may try to get his son a place on the nine.

The Junior promenade at Eldridge hall last night was a very enjoyable event for Juniors and Seniors. There were some ninety couples present and a pretier promenade has never been given. The hall was decorated with the Junior colors, burst orange and yellow with palms and plants, and numbers of colored lights, while electric fans did duty in available places. At 9 o'clock a farce was presented by five of the Juniors. It was Howell,s "Dress Suit" with cast as follows:

white folders with a monogram in gold,
1901, on the front. A program of sixteen dances was given.
All things combined to make the Phi Psi party Thursday night, a brilliant success. The weather was deliciously inviting, and Eldridge hall wore its most gay and festive appearance, as adorated with flowers, ferns, colored lights and bunting, it resounded to the spirited music of Zayler's orchestra. From the four large chandeliers bunting in the fraternity lavender and pink was arranged in a square, while colored lights hung from the corners to the center of the room. The balcony was draped with the colors, and palms here and there heightened the beauty of the room. A group of palms hid the musicians. The guests were received by Misses Charlotte Parkhurst, Helen Oisis, Dell Frazer, Mrs C. E. Esterley and Mrs. Horwig, and MeissR. R. D. Garver, John Hayden, Joe Wilson, Dr. C. E. Esterley. The programs, folders of heavy green card-board, had the Phi Psi pin in go'd embossed on a white background, in the center of the card. The leaves inside, bore the names of the music, and the chapter roll of the fraternity. Professor and Mrs. Holder led the grand march. Out of town guests were Misses Kroh, Fife, Louise Moore; Messrs Percy Barshfield, Cliff Kroh, Maurice Alden, Jerry McPherson, Lloyd Atchison, Clyde Gilbert, Fred Wood, from Kansas City; Dr. Esterley and wife, George Esterley and wife, Miss Charlotte Parkhurst, Helen Oisis, Edna McClintock, Messrs John Harrison, George Overmyer, Adrian Sherman, from Topeka; Will Maxwell, Paola; Will Ransom, Ottawa; Miss Ruth Hayden, Holton.

The thirty-third anniversary of the Pi Betta Phi traternity was celebrated Tuesday night by the members of the active and alumnae chapters in Lawrence. At the New Eldridge hall was held a reception and banquet at which were present forty-five Pi Phis. The dining room was profusely decorated with flowers and the fraternity colors. Palms and red tulips were effectively arranged around the room. The table was in the shape of a large V and was a beautiful sight with its feathery ferns and numbers of red carnations scattered here and there. There were many candelabra bearing little red candles arranged on mirror trays. Red carnations were also placed at each plate as souvenirs Mrs F H Smithmyer, toastmistress for the evening sat at the point of the V and introduced the toasts.

For Famine Stricken India.
A large convocation of the faculty and students of Kansas university was held last week to raise money for starving India Speeches were delivered by Chancellor Snow, Prof Carruth and Prof. Higgins. No subscriptions were taken at the meeting but committees from each class were appointed to so itic aid.
The K U band furnished the music. This meeting was in accordance with Gov. Stanley's proclamation asking the people of Kansas to contribute toward such a fund. Kansas University set the example and it is hoped that other schools and colleges of Kansas will follow. The comMITtees are meeting with good success as the students are contributing liberally.
