In the mandolin club, Newhouse, Garver, Shaler, Elmer, Kelly and Harschberger will play mandolins, Summerfield and Warner Kelley will play banjos and Fife, Sallee, Thatchen and Advertz will play guitars. Both clubs are developing into fine shape and there is no doubt that K. U. will have cause to be proud of the record of her glee club. The glee club has the finest material in it that any club has had that ever went out. The mandolin club is especially forunate in having Newhouse as its director. The members of that club think that they have the strongest aggregation that ever got together. The Fire Protection for the University Buildings Buildings. Last winter during the session of the state legislature with the amount appropriated for the need of the University an appropriation of $5,000 was made for the purpose of affording a system of fire protection for the University. In accordance with the plans then made a large Smith-Vaile duplex pump was placed in the Fowler shops for furnishing the necessary force. This pump has a 129x916 inch cylindr a capable of throwing 750 gallons of water per minute or furnishing enough for three lines of hose one and one-eighth inches in diameter. The pump is connected with the city water works and other mains have been laid during the summer and fall connecting with all the buildings and and all parts of the grounds. Recently large pipes were placed on both sides of Fraser Hall and extending to the roof of the building, with plugs for attaching two lines of hose to each pipe at each floor and roof. With these pipes have been constructed a ladder running to the roof. The new whistle that has just been put in position at the shops will sound the alarm if any fire breaks out Monday,according to prearranged plans, the alarm was given and the city fire department was called out making the run to the hill in seven minutes and throwing water five minutes later. Hereafter tests will be made when the department is ignorant of the time they will be called out. There is some talk of constructing a reservoir on the hill for the especial purpose of supplying water in the case of fire and thus saving the expense of using city water. Like day and night in alternating score, Some more, some less—our hope is joy to To laugh, to weep, thus runs life's jingle AMUSEMENTS. **spine** A space for you and help you laugh the more. How appropriate the above lines to a delightful comedy. Such a play we have in "The Nominee," presented for the first time in America by Nat Goodwin some seasons ago. It has never lost its popularity, although seldom seen since the genial Nat laid it aside after its giving him a firm rooting as a master in his art. The play is this season in the hands of a worthy successor to Mr. Goodwin, Mr. Walter Walker, an admirable young actor, who last season made such a hit all through the South in the star role in "A Bachelor's Honeymoon." This young man, although this is only his second starring tour, has hosts of admirers. His ability is of a kind that should before long give some of the older heads a little tussle for a place toward the head of the class. The loyalty of his following among the The Choice An exceedingly wide range of Holiday Goods are shown at Innes'.

Once an actor wins the fair patrons of the theatre, his future is just about assured. This remark lorne heard from one of our fore most managers. It set me observing and I have concluded the assertion was not far wrong. Run over the list of your leading men and you'll agree. I warrant, Mr. Walker has surrounded himself with a company of capable players, the leading woman being Mildred St. Pierre. The careful, intelligent attention this gentleman devotes to his art is indeed refreshing and must command admiration and success. BRIEF COLLEGE ITEMS. The oldest college in the world is Mohammed College, at Cairo, Egypt, which was 1,400 years old when Oxford was founded. It has 11,000 students. Dr Arthur T. Hadley of Yale, in his inauguration address emphasized four problems—those of entrance requirements, increased living expenses, athletics and university organizations. [He was opposed to shortening the college course by giving another year to the secondary schools, but also tended to attain superior loyalty to them. He recommended that all financial aid be given either as prizes or for the services rendered. Dr. Hadley insists upon the educational value of athletics, but deprecated such attendance evils as professionalism and especially that subtle professionalism which does not understand "the love of sport for its own sake" but which "regards athletics as a sort of competitive means for pushing the university ahead of some rival." In treating of the internal rivalries and jealousies of a large university, he advocated the policy of open and frank discussion in a university council as a means to mutual understank and concessions. Asa L. Canavan of the class of 97, had a narrow escape on Thanksgiving morning. He boarded the ill fated Buffalo express for New York to see the big game between Harvard and Princeton. When he arrived at Washington, N. J., he changed his mind and took a train for Easton, Pa., where he spent the day with Horace Sternberg, another Lawrence boy, who is taking mining enginering at Lafoyte college. His family here and his friends at Scranton were much concerned, as they were aware of his intention to go to New York. On the day of his return to Scranton, a bras plug driven and followed by steam and boiling water flew past his head, causing the people in the office to leave in a hurry —Lawrence Journal.
