Omaha Bee's Account of the Kansas Victory at Lincoln.
THE BALL GAME.
Outbatted, outfitted and outplayed in pretty nearly every wrinkle of the great national game—that explains why Capt. Reeder, he of the aurora borealis suit of hair, yanked the bedraggled colors of the Nebraska University out of the dust of defeat in which they had been stamped by the sacrilegious feet of the victorious Kansans. The sheen cast by the dizzy blondness of Captain Reeder's cranial covering was entirely eclipsed by the Jayhawker's star that arose as darkness was pulling its mantle down.
The game, however, was an interesting one and close until the last two innings. The Kansans started out as if they intended to make up for the defeats earlier in the afternoon, but the Nebraskans were treading on their heels all the while. But team won work out, Kansas biffed out a single now and then when it was needed and thus secured its runs, while the Nebraskans depended upon the skytrocket efforts of two or three individuals. For example, two of their runs were the result of a trisocker by Bliss and a homer by Moore.
It was anybody's game up to the eighth, in which inning the Nebraskans tied the score that had been against them up to that time and gave their rooters an opportunity which they did not fail to seize. After that, however the Jayhawkers assumed an entirely undue familiarity with the curves of Mr. Bliss and coached a decidedly tired feeling in his being before they got through with him. The score:

Phi Gams 12- Phi Delts 4.
The first of the inter-freaternity base ball games was played on McCook field, Friday. May 12. The game was slow and abounded in stupid playing, both in base running and fielding. The game was listless, but quite comical. An abundant number of errors were made, those of the Phi Deits being very costly. Peters' pitching was a feature of the game.

Oratorical Symposium.
The elocution class and those interested in debate and oratory, met in the chapel last Thursday afternoon to hear short addresses by Professor O'Leary and Burdick, and Mr. Perl Decker. Prof. Vickrey explained that the meeting was not so much to arouse enthusiasm for the coming contests as to give some direction to that enthusiasm. A number of events are being arranged for next year, and it is Prof. Vickrey's desire that the work may begin even now.
Prof. O'Leary stated that his remarks would mostly be suggestions about what to do and what to avoid doing. In the first place, one should be wise in choosing a subject. The great fault of most writers, especially those whose work Prof. O'Leary had examined was that they had made their subjects too broad. The narrower the subject the better it is. This narrowness helps in making the ideas specific instead
of general. A good rule to follow is, be specific and select a subject fit to handle; one that you know something about and one on which you feel strongly. Orations need not all deal with politics or sociology. The plainer things of life may well be treated by the orator. An oration differs from any essay in that it appeals to the ear. For this reason brevity and clearness of sentence structure are essential. After the subject is selected, never wander from it. Try for climax and end strongly. Do not use the common place style. If one would not be ruined oratorically, let him avoid above everything else, backneyed figures of speech.
Prof. Burdick's remarks were centered around the definition of oratory. He gave the definition which had been sent him by a famous Boston school: "Oratory is the power one's soul has of influencing other souls toward good and truth by means of gesture, speech and presence." This definition is not satisfactory, because it might mean the mere recitation of poetry. Oratory is as indefinable something that we can feel but not define. Oratory is not necessarily the art of in fluence, because a powerful plea might be made to an audience without any effect, yet the attempt may have been genuinely oratorical. Students should remember this fact and not be discouraged if they fail to always accomplish what they intend. In oratory preparation counts for more than birth. There is genius but it is the genius of labor Webster's masterpiece was not an inspiration but the experience and study of forty years. Little trust should be placed in extemporaneous speeches. Lincoln's Geitzburg oration was the culmination of a life's work. Great preparation and a heart full of sympathy are the requisites for an orator.
Mr. Decker believes that in oratory much depends on realizing the occasion. He discussed the relation of oratory to debate. He is much opposed to supplanting oratorical contests with contestings in debate. Mr. Decker believes that oratory and debate should go together, and in conclusion he plead for a greater interest in both.

Pharmics Visit Kansas City.
The party, consisting of Dr. Sayre, Dr. Williston, Professors Wagner and Bartow and some forty or fifty students left Lawrence via the Santa Fe at 8:14 a. m. arriving in K.C. about 9:30. The large establishment of Faxon, Horton & Gellegher, being nearest the depot was the first place visited. The party was met at the door by the proprietors and escorted through the building.
In response to an invitation from Parke, Davis & Co., and other wholesale drug houses in Kansas City, the Pharmacy department visited the city on Friday, May 5th.
The next place at which a stop was made was the Evans—Smith Drug Company. On entering the party was welcomed-by the proprietors and the ladies each presented with a box of bon-bons while the gentlemen again received cigars.

Among the views that attracted tee most attention were the following: Westminster Abbey, London Tower, Winsor Castle, and St. Mary's church.
The singing of Mr. Farrell was greatly enjoyed by the audience. His first number "The King and the Miller" gave the singer opportunity of showing his wonderful range of voice
The low tones especially were remarkable for their purity and power. Mr Farrell also favored the audience with an old Scottish song, "Oh Are Ye Sleepin' Maggie; and an Irish song, 'The Shamrock.'"
