The incomparable Corinne heading one of the greatest operatic organizations on the day, comes to Lawrence for a limited engagement of one night presenting the great New York Casino success, "An American Beauty" which has elements of originality and interest altogether novel in comic opera. The comedy idea predominates throughout its light, entertaining story yet with a sufficient undercurrent romance to give it consistency, "An American Beauty" has an essentially modern environment, its scener being laid in Newport and Monte Carlo and the plot has such whimsical complications that they permit all possible latitude in gay and effective costuming. Corinne is provided with the most congenial and happy role she has ever been called upon to fill. She enacts a rich and beautiful widow, eccentric in her disregard of society's conventionalities, who finally after heart-aches and disappointments marries the man of her love. Much of the comedy is furnished by the three proprietors of the "Greatest Show On or Off the Earth," who endeavor to persuade the gay little widow to become the Ten Thousand Dollar Beauty of their circus. Corinne's entrance in the second act is made in gorgeous oriental costume, glittering with gold and silver ornaments, on the back of a gaily caprisoned elephant. To say that the production is a gorgeous one conveys no idea of its splendor of scenic display and magnificent costuming, which were the talk of New York during the long run at the Casino. The company, too, comprises some of the brightest of comic opera stars, including as it does six sterling comedians almost as many dashing soubrettes and an incomparable ensemble, numerically numerous, vocally strong and radiantly beautiful in respect to its female members. Seats on sale Wednesday morning, November 24th. Syd Prentice's Latest Sydney Prentice is illustrating a book published by McKinnon and Thomas of Kansas City, called "The Biddie Book."

FISHER, EYE, EAR, NOSE AND THROAT: IN Kansas City University 18 Kansas City University. Glasses Fitted Correctly, Satisfac- tively 1103 Main St. Kansas City, Mo. In the death of Ralph Gowell the University and Science have suffered a loss that can only be appreciated by those who were intimately acquainted with him. Since my connection with this University I have known of no student who promised better as a man than did Mr. Gowell. Country bred, as most of the noted American naturalists have been, he brought to his world heze the energy, enthusiasm and love, that would surely have given him, had he lived, a life of usefulness and fame. As a student he was calm, deliberate, conscientious and accurate. As an instructor he had awakened in his pupil the deepest respect for his ability, earnestness and knowledge. As a man, he has gained, not only the respect, but the affection and love of instructors, pupils and associates. With the rugged body and strong mind of a stalwart man he had the gentle heart of a girl. The evils of life had passed him by without leaving one contaminating touch. With a tender consideration for others, so characteristic of him that it was shown when he knew that he was dying, he made all about him feel the influence of his manly character in the most unconscious, unpretty way. Perhaps none knew him better and more intimately in the University than Professor Dyche and myself. He was a member of the geological expedition with me two years ago in Wyoming. In camp and field his attitude toward me was that of friend rather than of a pupil—free and unrestrained. In all the weeks that we were then so intimately associated and since, I never heard a word from him in complaint or reproach, nor one that might not have been uttered with propriety in the presence of his mother and sister. Regent Sames, who was a member of the same party, in a letter to me says: "I loved Mr. Gowell as I did no other young man in the University. I loved him for his great big stout young manhood. I loved him because he was a student. I loved him because he was faithful in his calling. I loved him because of his upright, true, Christian character. In all our associations I never heard him use a slang word or phrase, and I never saw anything about him that I could not commend to my own boys." RALPH C. GOWELL. He was in the highest sense a clean man, a manly man, an honest man, an unselfish man, whose like all in all I have never met with in two score years of my life. Sounassuming and modest was he that jealousy of him was impossible even in the narrow minded. Every rejoiced in his good prospects in life. Had he lived, he would have made a name in science greater than is possessed by any one now connected with the University. I watched the unfoldings of his mental powers with the deepest pleasure, proud to have a part in the moulding of a student who would have reflected back lustre upon his alma mater and his instructors. These words of eulogy may be attributed to the feelings of a friend who sincerely mourns his loss, but they are no warmer than those said about him while he was vet alive. Best of all in his character was the love and reverence he bore his mother. The mother of such a noble son must reflect back in herself his noble qualities, making far more deep her poignant anguish at his loss. To her our heartfelt sympathies are given. His instructors, his associates, the Chancellor, the remeurs, mourn his loss as that of a beloved son or brother. He has made the world better for his elhort life. He has given an example that we may all worthily follow S. W. Williston. If you wish stylish up-to-date and becoming millinery Daugherty's is without question the place to be satisfied.
