The Victim Victimized
Speaking of Thanksgiving jokes reminds me.
At a boarding club just before a recent Thanksgiving, it was agreed that the steward, an arts student, and some junior laws, should procure a turkey for the great dinner. The laws were loudest in the demand that the steward should go.
The evening before the day the party started for a farmhouse near Lawrence, incidentally near a graveyard. Shortly after their arrival at the house they espied their bird. The steward was delegated to get it. He crept slyly upon his prey, and just as he was reaching for it the report of a gun deafened him. He had noticed that the fowl was tied to the bush and now saw the joke. The entire crowd took to their heels, he being behind. They had run but a short distance when one of the laws threw up his arms and cried, "My God I'm shot!" and then fell. Eell his acting was poor or his voice did not have the proper ring, for the intended victim whipped out a revolver and commanded him to run. His speed was remarkable, too, for a wounded man. The anticipated joke proved a reality. The steward seeing the success of his plan turned the revolver on the rest of the party. They soon outdistanced him and sought refuge in a ditch. The time they remained there is not known, but they did not arrive in Lawrence until a long time after their companion had reached his room. Before going out on their expedition the law students advised that no one should take a gun. The steward then anticipating something, loaded his revolver with blanks.
It leaked out afterward that another one of the law students really believed he was shot, and had to be looked over with a match before he could assure himself to the contrary.

FISCHER & SON.
A New Bible Class.
It gears almost without saying that a knowledge of mythology is necessary to an appreciation of classic literature, and to an understanding of ancient laws and social customs, but it has to be repeatedly urged upon the busy student that modern literature and social conditions can be advantageously viewed through the same medicine—the religion of the people.
While it is a delicate matter for a state institution to make a text book of a work so vital to the people as is the Bible, yet some such course as 'the English Bible, its content and influence" would give additional culture and power to many a student who now lacks and knows not what he lacks. Meanwhile this work is carried on in a measure by the several Bible classes of the Christian association in the University.
A new class is being organized at present by the Y. M. C. A. It will be composed of busy students and its aim will be to get a systematized knowledge of the Bible. The book will be read on the cooperative plan and each member will bring to class a brief of the portion assigned him for reading. These condensed reports will be read and by taking notes each member of the class may have an outline of the Bible for further reference.
The class will meet every Saturday night from 7 to 8 o'clock with Mr. Douglass, 1301 Tennessee street. Any University man interested will be made welcome and put to work.

GOOD FOR DOANE.
CRTEE, Neb. Dec. 4, 1897.
Mr. Kennedy, Captain K  U. Football
No Stock in Nebraska's Accusations.
The letter which follows is self-explanatory:
The Athletic Editor of the "Owl" Takes
No Stock in Nebraska's Accusations.
DEAR SIR;—I have been asked to write a sort of review on the football season of 1807 for our college paper, the Doane Owl.
Now as there is a great deal of talk concerning one of your men wearing car coupling pins, steel rails, corn knives," etc., during the game with the Krusnas City Medicies. I would very much like to hear the truth, and, therefore, I write to you. From the gentlemanly treatment which the Doane team received last year while at Lawrence, from the football team, faculty, and students of the Kansas University, I am loth to believe the current newspaper reports concerning the actions of your team this last season.
Any explanation of the sort of protection, the reason for wearing it, etc., will be gladly received with anything else you may see fit to add.
I have been a member of the Doane team for several years and know some of the necessities for wearing protection of one sort or another, and have no doubt that the wearing of such by your player can be justified. Yours sincerely,
ANDREW HOUSTON.
Athletic Ed. of Doane "Owl," Crete,
Nebraska.
She Speaks Right Out About the Duty of the Boys
A FORLORN GIRL.
The Freshmen are experiencing their first palpitation of university social life. They are to have a party. But many of the boys—modest fellows—are going to "stag it." The girls—poor things—are fearful of the result.
Mr. Kinzie has received a naive communication on the subject from one who does not sign her name.
Henry, President of Hancock
Honored President of Presidential Class I, a forlorn girl, knowing that many of the boys are not doing their duty toward the lady members in offering themselves as escorts to the class party and fearing that many will have to remain away or go unattended, beg to suggest a plan.
Honored President of Freshman Class
Call the boys together and have them write on slips of paper the names of the girls to whom they have offered themselves as escorts, collect these and from the class roll write the names of the remaining girls and pass these to the boys who have failed to do their duty. The boys may exchange names in case they prefer.
Now please consider this. Boys cannot know the feelings of the poor girl whose company no one seems to care for.
ONE INTERESTED IN THE SUCCESS OF THE CLASS PARTY.
Another Office Seeker.
The following is a clipping from the Concordia Empire, Cloud county:
"Perl Decker of Lawrence township, recently candidate for register of deeds, on the democratic ticket, failing to secure the office, has entered the law school of the state university. With his fine oratorical ability he ought to make a brilliant lawyer."
And the joke of it is that Mr. Decker was on the straight democratic ticket and received some less than seventy-five votes.
A meeting of the local oratorical association was held Friday noon. It was decided that the local contest should be free to the public, all necessary expenses to be borne by the contestants. A committee of three consisting of Messrs P. S. Elliot, M. A Smith and J O Hall was appointed by the president to arrange the program and make all other necessary arrangements for holding the contest. It was agreed to hold the contest in University hall Friday, January 21.

AMUSEMENTS.
The gifted, jolly and magnetic comedienne Flo Irwin will make her first appearance in this city as a star next Tuesday (14th) evening at the opera house when she will assume the title role of John J. McMally's prize winning musical farce "The Widow Jones." Miss Irwin needs no introduction to our theatre goers as she has been long and favorably known here as a comedy artiste of rare merit and discretion. Her methods are never coarse or boisterous but always laugh compelling, while her inimitable singing of darky songs is always a delight to the ear and her costumes a feast for the eye. Old friends and new are sure to be on hand in force to see her take her place in the small galory of common stars now before the public, and it is a safe wager that she won't be the least brilliant of the lot. Rich & Harris, proprietors of this amusement enterprise, have surrounded her with an exceptionally strong company and have s tayed and costumed the piece with strict regard to the requirements of a high class production. With such a star and company in a McMally comedy, we feel that we can reasonably anticipate an entertainment of merit

ENGINEERING NOTES.
At the Electrical seminary held Friday morning the following program was given: "A Method of Measuring Phase Differences in Alternating Currents," by Prof. Rice, "The Addition to the Electrical Transmission Line from Niagara Falls to Buffalo" by Will Walker and "To What Extent Will Electricity Replace Steam as a Motive Power for Railrords?" by James Drysale.
There is some discussion among the senior engineers as to whether or not they will fall in line with the Senior arts and wear caps and gowns. It is pretty certain that if one wears them all will. Some one suggested wearing overalls and blouses at commencement.
The freshmen engineers are beginning lettering as part of their work in draughting.
Prof. Ward recently received a letter from Roscoe O'Neil '97. Mr. O'Neil is working in St Louis and has charge of a power plant. He says he was visited by Chas. Fletcher who was on his way east to accept a position in New York.
Prof Dunstan's class in thermo-dynamics are working up the details of a steam engine test made on a Westinghouse compound engine to see whether the manufacturers made any mistakes. They have found several errors, which were of course made by the manufacturer and not by the students
Prof. Franklin performed a very pretty instructive experiment before his class in theoretical chemistry Wednesday morning A glass tube was filled with carbon dioxide and its vapor and sealed up. It was then placed in a bath of parafine and heated up till the "critical temperature" was reached when the line of demarkation between the liquid and its vapor disappeared and they were both of the same density. As the vapor was exerting a high pressure on the tube there was danger of the tube's breaking, which Prof. Franklin guarded against by placing large plates of glass around the apparatus for the students to look thou and see the experiment One of the students, Robert Clark, by name
