The Baker Orange has at last started something. The Washburn Review calls it down on its statement that Baker has won more contest money than any other school, in a very effective manner. Go to brethren.
The selection of Hyatt, Davis and Mcowy to represent Kansas University in the debate against Colorado meets with general approbation in this institution. They are good orators and will represent our school very creditably. Hyatt was one of the debaters that defeated Missouri University at Columbia last year and has won several debates here. Davis is a new man in oratorial circles, but he is recognized as one of the best speakers Kansas University has. Mcowy is also a strong man and while last week was his initial appearance, he showed up well.
Minnesota and Iowa Universities are at swords' points over their annual debate. It seems that Iowa sent a delegate to the Northwestern debate to get an idea of Minnesota's style of oratory but when a Minnesota man made a return visit to Iowa his was not received as cordially as it should have been. So far open warfare has not been declared but we are anxiously awaiting more definite news from the seat of trouble. Our western institutions of learning are bound to keep abreast of the times.

Woman's Science Table.
A K. U. woman's science table has been established at the Marine Biological Laboratory through the efforts of Mrs. F. D. Robinson, wife of the late Governor Robinson.
This presents a great opportunity for Zoological, Botanical and Physiological work, especially on marine forms. The laboratory is delightfully located on the sea shore, where each summer hundreds of professors and students meet for advanced work. It is a place where not only opportunities are offered but also inspiration received by coming in contact with noted men and women. Miss Alberta McCrory, a graduate student in botany has been appointed to represent K. U. science women during the coming summer. There she will complete the investigations she has begun under Prof. Stevens as well as work in marine botany and zoology.
Fenn to be Here Again.
Rev Charles Hawley Fenn who has just resigned from the First Congregational church of Leavenworth will address the Y. M.C. A. next Sunday afternoon and lead chair, the rest of the week.
Mr. Fenn made such a favorable impression during his former visit that his presence asures a large chapel attendance for this week. He will be entertained at the Y. M. C. A. House.
A rate of one and one third will be given by the railroads for the spring holidays.
W. S. Kretsinger, who was in the University last term has been nominated by the Republicans of Emporia for city attorney. The nomination is equivalent to an election.

Dale Gear of the Kansas City Blues went to Lawrence yesterday and began the coaching of the Jawhaker ball team. He went out to McCook field in the afternoon and watched the boys practice. He did very little individual work, but seemed well pleased with the showing the team made. Some of the players who are trying for positions were told by Captain Parent after the game that they were practically out of the race, and this is supposed to have been done upon Gear's suggestion. By next week the team can probably be picked, and then Gear will begin his work in earnest. Manager Nichols wants to have him twice a week then until the season begins.—K. C. Star.

A large number of University students were in evidence at the play Wednesday night. The bald headed row was occupied by a full line of fraternity men. In the balcony the Sigma Chi delegation made up a short line party, while scattered here and there were many faces familiar on the hill.

SOCIETY.

The Kappa girls gave a very lovely card party last Saturday, complimentary to Miss Bell Jones, a Kappa of two years ago, who visited here for several days. It was given at the home of Miss Jane Harmon on Mississippi street. The dainty and original color scheme observed throughout the afternoon was the feature of the party. Tiny cards, shaped like fleur-3-lis, were given the guests. These were tied with violet ribbons, and were marked to determine the partners at the tables. The score was kept with violets, and for each hand the winner was given a violet. The highest score brought its owner a large bunch of these fragrant purple blossoms. When refreshments were served the ice cream was found to be tainted a delicate violet. The rooms were profusely decorated, too, with violets and were fragrant with their delicate perfume. Miss Dell Frazer won the honor prize.
Over a year ago on a dark, rainy Saturday evening, in spite of several other social functions, nearly one hundred Association men enthusiastically participated in a novel entertainment known as a "toasty time." After speeches from several members and guests, all united in drinking punch, eating cookies, and singing college songs. Everyone had such an exceedingly good time that before the evening closed it was unanimously agreed that the "toasty time" must be repeated in the next year as a banquet. Since that time the association has more than doubled in membership and work and the dream of a year ago is realized in a banquet with covers laid for two hundred men.
Mrs. McCullom Smith will give a sacred reading in the Methodist church at Eudora tomorrow.

Tom Smith the Hiawata lad that once gave a recital in Highland distinguished himself as a football player, and later as a soldier, is now deputy sheriff of Brown county and the way he* swoops down upon the joints of his county is a caution to behold. There is something very original about Tom Smith —Highland Vidette.

Not long ago, the advanced English Composition class wrote on "The Greatest Need of the University." Several were sure that competent critics in the English department are needed most, but a majority of the remainder agreed that a good gym is the greatest need.
Academic Honors.
Albanians will perhaps be interested to know that the rich silk gown, velvet cap and purple trimmed hood which was presented to President McKinley and worn by him in receiving his degree of Doctor of Laws at the University of Chicago last week was made by the Intercollegiate Bureau maintained by Cotrell & Leonard of this city. Ex-President Cleveland's outfit for Doctor of Laws of Princeton came from the same establishment, and the Western University of Pennsylvania here procured the doctors of Laws hood which it sent with the parchment diploma to Admiral Dewey to Manila. The Yale Doctor of Divinity hood which Dr. Watson ( Ian Maclauren) took back to England with him was also Mr. Leonard's design. Thousands of college outits are made here every year, but of course most of them are for people who are in the inner circles of the academic world; in the cases above mentioned the universities have honored themselves in granting these honors.—Alban y Argus.
