G. C. WOLF, Successor to B. W. Henshaw FOURTH OF JULY WITH THE 20TH KANSAS. Most of the people who were here two years ago will remember Charles Edmond Cook, the author of the following poem: When our fathers broke the shackles, that had bound them to the throne. Put aside the tyrant's power and declared their lives their own. Then the bells sang "Independence," and that glorious day was set, Brightest jewel of the days that gleam in History's coronet. Through the long years of upbuilding, while the Nation slowly grew. Through the times of passing trouble, still the Nation's heart beat true. To the principles expounded by her founders in the plan Of a government that rested on the equal rights of man. Came the days of civil combat, threatening the Nation's life, When she poured forth blood and treasure in a fratricidal strife. When the strong hand of the martyr struck fetters from the slave. And a deeper, truer meaning to the name of Freedom gave. Slow the growth of friendly feeling 'twixi the sandered North and South, Till they faced a common danger at the belching cannon's mouth— When once more their sons touched elbows in a quarrel not their own. Fighting side by side for Freedom in the burning torrid zone. And our soldiers still are fighting under neath the tropic sky; Once again the sun has risen on the Fourth Day of July For the serpent that the Nation warmed upon her glowing breast, Messenger of Liberty, and this is what the message means: Heartily the day we welcome in the far off Philippines. Locused to life, has meanly stung her at Ambition's foul behest. Equal rights to every dweller in these isl- ands of the sea— The right of life to liberty, the blessings of the free. "Man's inhumanity to man" must cease beneath the Saxon's hand. Not the treacherous cruelty inherent in the Malay breed— Not the right of loot and slaughter burning through the Malay creed; Hard the burden laid upon us—leading savage minds to light. And liberty and justice walk together through the land. Fighting ancient prejudices, meeting ignorance with might. Giving of our sons to die for civilization's thankless gain. Lifting a benighted people to a higher nobler plane. Glorious birthday of our Nation! Famous Milestone of the Age. The year you mark has seen our race assume its heritage. And the time shall come, we swear it when throughout these Southern Isles Every soul shall hail your coming, and greet your dawn with smiles. —Edmund Cooke, Co. H., Twentieth Kan- s Volunteer Infantry. ADELPHIC (LITERARY SOCIETY. The first meeting of the Adelphic will be held Saturday evening, October 7, in the German room, Frazer hall.

The celebrated Lambardi Italian Grand Opera company, at present singing in Denver in [the Broadway theatre, will appear in Lawrence at the Bowersock Opera house. October 7, and will render their famous interpretation of the renowned operatic masterpieces, "Il Trovatore." AMUSEMENTS. The company is an unusually large one, there being sixty-eight actual working artists on the stage, of which fifteen are stars of the first magnitude. Besides these, an orchestra of twenty of the best musicians obtainable, are carried. Consequently the management is under heavy expense, and to enable such a company to appear in Lawrence, it will be necessary for opera house patrons to pack the house. It is to be, hoped, therefore, that the music lovers of this city will heartily cooperate in this movement and lend their every aid that they may enjoy a musical feast of unsurpassed richness. By supporting such meritorious attractions we can encourage other good companies to come here and become educated in such things without the expensive city trips we have to take now to hear such artists.

But as it happened, the Freshmen became aware of the scheme, and after electing a temporary chairman they adjourned, and the nice little plot of the Sophomores all went for nothing.

At the second meeting of the Biological Club, Prof. Ida Hyde told about the Marine Library at Wood's Hall. She spoke of its history, location, advantages and courses of study. SNOW HALL NOTES. Prof. Hyde has spent five summers there and is thoroughly familiar with all the details. Through her personal efforts an American woman's table has just been established there. This will give to some woman a free table in the library and free tuition. We hope a Kansas woman will be the first to use it. Mr. E. H. Sellards and Mr. C. C. Wick spent Friday and Saturday at Twin Mounds collecting fossils. Prof. Hunter told of his work in western Kansas during last summer. Mr. Martin, the assistant in paleontology, arrived on Wednesday and is now at work in the laboratory arranging and preparing for exhibition the relics found in the ruins in Scott county. These ruins have been known for some time and Mr. Martin has spent several weeks making thorough excavations and study of them. He has found proof of a considerable Pueblo village. The ruins showed quite plainly the form of a house fifty feet long, built of adobe and stone, having seven rooms. Here were found charred corn, an Indian ax and other utensils showing that Indians and white men had dwelt there, or that the former had carried white men's utensils thither. Dr. Williston and Mr. Martin have a most interesting story which will appear in the Quarterly. Golf Club. A Golf Club has been organized in the University and this popular game promises to find a permanent place among the athletics of this institution. "This club is not to be cofounded to the students and faculty of the University but even include any persons in Lawrence who are fond of golf. A temporary organization was effected at a meeting held last week and a committee consisting of Dr. Naismith, G. J. Gibb and Ed Copley appointed to secure suitable grounds to play. At a meeting Tuesday the committee reported that a field just south of the University campus could be gotten and that it was a very good place to play. A permanent organization was effected by the election of Prof. Bartow, president, Miss Edith Snow, secretary, and Miss Florence Parrott, treasurer. The Band. The K. U, band held its first meeting last Tuesday. There were twenty-five or thirty candidates and from these the band will be selected.
