SOCIETY
PI PHIS ENTERTAIN.
The pre-Lenten-gaities closed last Monday night with one of the most successful parties ever given by the Pi Beta Phi fraternity. Pythian hall was most elaborately decorated for the occasion. Heavy evergreen ropes were festooned from the center chandelier to the four corners and across the balcony, which was very effectively decorated with palms and shaded lamps, mirrors and numberless divans and cushions made the hall probably the prettiest it has been this year, and formed an effective setting for the merry, dainty gowns of the girls.
The receiving committee consisted of Misses Edith Snow and Harriet Ayres and the partronesses of the fraternity, with their husbands. They were Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Weaver, Mr. and Mrs. Paul R. Brooks, Prof. and Mrs. James Green, and Mr. and Mrs. Peter Emery. The programs were given out by Mrs. Green and Mrs. Brooks.
Ice water was served downstairs from a pretty booth of evergreens and the wine and blue of the fraternity, while upstairs coffee and sandwiches were brought throughout the evening. An unusually large numbers of out of town guests were present, including prominent society people from Kansas City, Topeka, Leavenworth, Atchison, Ottawa and other neighboring towns.
The Phi Beta Kappa reception and initiation took place Tuesday night at the home of Prof. Wilcox.

Chemical Seminary.
The Chemical society had its regular meeting last Thursday. Prof Bailey had charge of the program. He discussed in a very interesting manner some papers pers that have been published in the Journal of the American Chemical society and in the American Chemical Journal. The following are the subjects that were discussed:
1. The Relation of the Taste of Acids to Their Degree of Dissociation, by F. W. Richard.
The joint debate committee met Friday noon. A petition from members of the Adelphic Literary Society was presented requesting that society be compelled to hold a preliminary. After a spirited discussion the chairman announced that the petition must be finally referred to the council. The feeling between the factions of the adelphic is very bitter. Because of conflict with the Indoor Meet and the Glee Club concert, it was moved and carried to request of the Missouri that the debate be postponed from the 18th to the 25th.
2. The Dignity of Analytical Work by C.B. Dudley.
Prof. Holder announced that his resignation was in the hands of the council. Prof. Brownell was elected chairman.

cussed the reasons leading to "The Choice of an Engineering Education." Dr. Bartow spoke of the investigations that he is carrying on in reference to the rivers of Kansas. Mr. Wm, Harvey Brown, who was elected a member of the society while in Africa in 1890, gave a very interesting description of "The Manners and Customs of the People of South Africa." He dwelt particularly on the characteristics of the races, their marriage, and burial customs and forms of greeting. Several important traits of the negroes in this country were shown to be hereditary and characteristic of the tribes in Africa. The superstitions of the natives and their precautions to avoid the evil that they fear from unfriendly spirits were discussed at some length. At the close of these exercises bountiful refreshments were served. It is proposed to hold two or three more meetings before the close of the year.
It is a sad thing to have a dear friend suddenly called from earth into the other world, but it has recently fallen to the lot of a number of our students to look for the last time upon the face of a loved one. Last Friday afternoon Mr. A. C. Mead listened with an appreciative ear to the Symphony concert and only a few hours after that; while he and three of his chums were pleasantly chatting in an upper room, another friend came in with the announcement that Mrs. Mead was on her way to Lawrence to make her son a visit. The next day she was met at the depot in Lawrence by sympathizing friends who made known to her the terrible news. Why such sad experiences should come into our lives, it is not for us to know; but it is our duty to learn from them the great truths of life.
Mr. Mead was born twenty-one years ago last April in Fort Scott, Kansas. All but two years and a half of his life was spent in that city. He lived one year in California and one and a half in Lawrence. The life of Mr. Mead was pure and sweet. He was born of Christian parents, and he led from his early years a Christian life. He leaves to mourn his loss a loving mother, a fond father and a broken-hearted brother. It is fitting to mention the courage and ambition of this young man, who, although he knew that he was afflicted with an incurable disease, had planned a life's work and was struggling hard to attain the end he sought. And we know how well he was succeeding. It is to his praise that he attained a height of culture and refinement not often found among college students or anywhere in one so young. Last Monday morning he was laid away in a vault in the Evergreen cemetery, three miles from his home.
Piano Recital.
On Wednesday at 5 o'clock occurred the fourth of the series of twenty recitals. The audience was somewhat larger than at any of the preceding recitals which goes to show that they are growing in popularity. The program was very well rendered and merited a larger audience than was present. Four of the numbers on the program were plano solos and two vocal solos. The first number "Farontella," by Mosznawski was rendered by Miss Ireland who played it very well but if she had put a little more spirit into her execution it would have been
J. H.F
better. It was very well received by the audience as was also the second number an Italian sarenade, by Jungmann, played by Miss Mills. It was not a brilliant piece and was therefore more difficult to render pleasing. The next number was a vocal selection by Miss MoCormick who appeared for the first time before a Lawrence audience and was, barring a slight unsteadiness well rendered. Miss Fisher's number was played with the delicacy and precision that one would naturally expect from her. Her number was a double one, the first part being "Guitarre" by Moszaowski, and the second, a minuet from Suite in E minor by Raff:
The second vocal selection was by Miss Spaulding. Her number was entitled "Calm as the Night," and was sung very sweetly. The last number was by Miss Daisy Orton who is well known to Lawrence audiences by her brilliant and artistic playing. Her number was Wieniawski's "Valse de Concert" and was played with her brilliancy and firmness.
SNOW HALL.
Prof Dyche gave a lecture last night at Neodesha. Last Friday he was at the Oklahoma University but a severe storm came up and the lecture had to be postponed until Saturday night when a large and interested audience greeted him.
Wednesday the Snow Hall Journal Club held its sixteenth weekly meeting. Prof. Barber gave a very interesting "Review of Roland Thaxter's Monograph on Laboubieniacea. This club meets every Wednesday afternoon at 5 o'clock instead of 2 o'clock as the directory says and every body interested in Natural History is invited to attend.
The departments concerned in it have just purchased twenty achromatic, triplet lenses for the use of the classes in Botany 1 and Zoology 1. Another great convenience provided for these classes is the system of lockers. These lockers are large enough for the students to keep all books and instruments, needed in the work, in and are also provided free of cost to the student.
The Gymnasium room is now the most used, yet the poorest finished room in the whole University. There is a class in there now every hour in the day.
The scheme for the Natural History Survey, a brief mention of which was given a short time ago, was launched at the last meeting of the journal club.
The idea is to make a biological survey of the neighborhood of Lawrence probably within a radius of five miles and then to take in a larger district. These trips are to be made every Saturday when the weather permits and the first will be to the Wakarusa. All the instructors in Snow Hall will actively assist in this survey and they would like all students, interested in this line of work to join them. Each student participating will be given some special subject to attend to and will be under the supervision of the instructors in this department of Natural History. The results of this survey will be published in yearly volumes and any student developing anything of value will be given credit for his work in these records. The first volume will most likely be botanical in its nature as this line of work is easier of comprehension and more productive of results than is zoology.
