It is still a matter of doubt as to whether Coach Yost will come back to Lawrence next year. The Athletic board has clearly expressed its desire to secure his services next year. At its last meeting before the holidays the following resolution was adopted;

Coach Yost and Kansas
To whom it may concern: This is to certify that we take pleasure in recommending Mr. F, H. Yost as a first class foot ball coach.
Mr Yost is a gentleman both on and off the field. His work with us this year has been thoroughly satisfactory and we hope to be able to have him with us again next year." At a meeting last Wednesday Dean Green was appointed to confer with Mr. Yost, but no definite results were reached.
One of the enterprising dailies of the city came out early in the week with the announcement that Yost would go to Missouri and have a general supervision over all athletics like Stagg at Chicago, and Phil King at Wisconsin. This anticipated the information of Mr. Yost himself, and before his departure he said he would make Kansas a proposition before hiring elsewhere.
Prof. Frank O. Marvin has been chosen by the Kansas Academy of Science to deliver an address on "Water Supply." This address will be delivered some time this year at Topeka.

A few days ago the news' came like lightning out of a clear sky that Hilliard Johnson was dead, and since that time his sudden death has been largely in my thought. Perhaps a few words in the WEEKLY might not be inappropriate in as much as Hilliard Johnson and myself have both had some little to do with the WEEKLY he at one time as editor, and myself at another time as managing editor. I do not know how else I may express my sorrow and sympathy for his friends thro' the columns of this paper.
To the Editor of the WEEKLY:
All through our college course we were usually on opposing sides in politics and class affairs. Few were the times that our energies were united. In most of the contests he was generally the victor and in fact I usually expected to be defaulent. After graduation he went to the extreme western border of our land and I came to the eastern confines. And yet with all this apparent divergence in college and life work I think I have never failed to recognize his merit and decided ability as a leader and a man of strong influences in all lines of work that he chose to persue, and beneath our apparent hostility. I am more than has been a friendly interest and a brotherly feeling.
I take this opportunity to express to his friends my earnest sympathy and my sincere regret at what we perhaps think was a brilliant career arrested prematurely. Of the class of '98 it seemed that none had a more promising future and all expected to hear from Johnson. But a Divine Providence has ordered otherwise and it is not ours to question. It will be long before this memory of Hilliard Johnson fades from the recollection of the writer. May some future day make it possible for us to meet on better terms in a University where contests are not waged and where misunderstanding do not occur.

Last Saturday's Wichita Eagle speaks as follows of Prof Penny's concert there: The organ recital given by Prof. Geo B Penny at the First M. E. church last night, was in regard to gooC music, a great success. It was certainly worthy of a much larger audience than was presented. All of the numbers, except the two by the High School chorus, were rendered by Mr. Penny. His playing was grand He showed marvelous technique and great musical talent. Prof Penny is the dean of the Art school of the State University. He will soon start on a six week's tour of the Euro pean art centers.

"Rushes" seem to be the thing everywhere. In addition to the regular cane-rush, the University of Illinois has a "color rush," the Rose Polytechnic Institute has something more novel in the line of a "pipe-rush," while the Freshmen and Sophomore classes of the University of Minnesota have added to these an informal, 'football-rush' and finally a "rag-baby rush."

Prof. Miller at McPherson.
The McPherson Daily Republican speaks as follows of Prof. Millers address before the Academy of Science;
The popular side of the Kansas Acad-
emy of Science meetings, was found in
the plenid illustrated lecture of Prof. E.
Miller of the State University. Owing to
the fact that the lecture had not been
widely announced the High School audi-
torium was not as well filled as it would
otherwise have been.
The address of Professor E. Miller was on the subject "The Corona of the Sun." The various phenomena of the sun, its surroundings, sun spots and their distribution, the energy of solar action as illustrated by the protuberances, the ejection of matter from the solar surface, the effects of the sun's action especially during the period of sun spots, upon terrestrial affairs, eclipses of the sun, the corona as exhibited at the time of total solar eclipses, the coronal streamers, cones, and other forms of irregular shapes were all discussed in turn.
But the object of the address was to show that the sun's corona may be seen at any time, on any clear day, during the hours between sunrise and sunset. The lecturer himself accomplished the feat on the third day of May, 1899, when there was no eclipse of the sun.
Astronomers everywhere in all the past have attempted to do this, but have invariably failed in their efforts. But with a false moon made of ordinary card board, and a six-inch telescope, Professor Miller actually accomplished it, and presented to the audience assembled to hear him, a picture of the corona of the sun as seen by him.
This was the main feature of the lecture He also gave a lantern exhibition of the protuberances, spots and eclipse and corona of the sun as well as that picture of the corona which he himself saw, under the circumstances referred to.
The Y. M. C. A. cabient gave a reception at the association house last night to Prof. F. W. Ellis of Topeka.
Prof. Frederick W. Ellis of Washburn college will address the Y. M. C. A, Sunday at 2:30 in North college. Mr. Ellis is an unusually entertaining speaker and his intimate association with Dr. Charles M. Sheldon for several years will add interest to this service.
