The Giris Joshed the Caller
A frat man who rooms on Tennessee street made a call the other night. The young lady whom he honored is a neighbor of his and she lives on Tennessee also. In the same house are other girls. The frat man didn't ask to see them so they had it in for him. When he started to leave that evening and opened the door between the parlor and the hall he found himself mixed up with a big pile of chairs.
Although the sky was unclouded he imagined that he might be caught in a shower as he went out of the door, so he borrowed an umbrella and prepared for a downpour from the upstairs window.
The rain did not fall but the departing caller did. He was running down the front steps and had gotten about half way when he became tangled up in a rope. He fell the remainder of the distance.
Next week he will call someplace else.

MUSICIANS WILL TOUR THE STATE.
THE BEST GLER AND MANDOLIN
CLUB IN THE HISTORY OF K. U.
The Organization Is Complete, and Preparations Are Being Made For a Concert Tour to Embrace All the Loading Towns.
Should the members of the University council give their consent, Kansas university will be represented this year by the best Glee club that ever made a tour of the state.
For the past month the members of both the Glee and Mandolin clubs have been rehearsing faithfully, the Mandolin club meeting once a week and the Glee club twice. The careful manner in which the members of the Glee club have been chosen and drilled has developed a chorus of more than usual ability.
There were over thirty contestants for places on the club and Prof. Penny found much difficulty in selecting the best twenvoices. The rehearsals so far have been in the nature of talks on tone production by Prof. Penny which have been of great interest in harmonizing the different voices.
The members of the club are as follows.
First tenors, Mars, Elliott, Overlander,
Pieratt, Rogers and Thatcher; second tenors, W. A. Cook, Clarence Howell, T. H. Gilton, J. A. Kerrick, first bass, Emley,
Ed House, A. E. Noyes, G. J. Wilson and R. R. *Brown*; second bass, Ed Copley, Carl Cooper, Frank House,
Avery, and Sloan. But twelve of these men will be taken on the tour.
The songs selected are all new and comprise *many* [humorous selections] and some of a higher grade. There will also be solos, duets, and a quartette.
The Mandolin club has not fared quite so well. There are at present but seven members, although there ought to be at least a dozen contestants for places, from among whom six that will be taken on the trip could be chosen. The instrumentation at present is as follows: Mandolins—F. C. Robertson, John Lee, Dick Rodgers, and A. B. Overlander; guitars—R. R. Brown, Carl Cooper and Arthur Williams. Frank Robertson is the efficient director. The president of the combined clubs is Frank House and the manager, Jack Harris.
The members of both clubs are anxiously awaiting the decision of the University council which will probably be made nown early next week. The conduct of some of the members of previous clubs while making a tour of the state has caused the University faculty to oppose the formation of a Glee club for the last two years out it is hoped and expected that the council will grant permission to such members of the present organizations are not deciert in their studies to tour the state.
Should the permission be refused, the organizations will of course abandon the trip and furnish music for local entertainments only. Anticipating favorable action on the part of the faculty, Manager Harris has mapped out the following route: leaving Lawrence at noon December 16th, on the Union Pacific, a concert will be given at Wamego, and on the following nights at Junction City, Manhattan, Abilene, Salina, McPherson, Newton, Wichita, Wellington, Arkansas City, El Dorado, and back on the Santa Fe through Emporia, Osage City and Topeka to Lawrence, where the closing concert will be given. The triunf will be completed about Jan. 25.
Manager Harris has received many letters from alumni and other interested parties, urging him to arrange a concert for their respective towns. After the Christmas trip, concerts will be given on Fridays and Saturdays at Kansas City, Ottawa, Osawatomie and other nearby towns. At most of these places receptions will be tendered the members after the concerts
The stone house at the corner of Ohio and Adams street has been rented and will be fitted up for use by the musical organizations of the University.
The members of both clubs are very en thrusiastic over the prospect and are going to work with a will to make the concerts of a high order. Prof. Penny says teat tpe material this year is the best he has ever had to choose from and will be much disappointed if the club does not prove the best in the history of the University.
The Lawrence Journal says. The engagement of Miss Martha Snow, eldest daughter of Chancellor Snow, to Mr. William Harvey Brown, has been announced.

These secret societies which form an important part in the college life of boys and girls keep the parents guessing. A Topeka mother of a University girl was asked yesterday to which fraternity her daughter belongs. "Why it's the Kappa—let me see, the Kappa—something," and then, as if struck by an inspiration, she added: "The girls all wear bows on their garters, so I guess it must be the knee Kappas."—Topeka Capitol.

Mr. Shellabarger attended the University about eight years ago. He completed his course at Princeton in '92 and then attended the New York Law School. He has lately formed a partnership, for the practice of law, with Charles J. Hardy, of New York.
The same day that Hamill reached Lawrence, Fitzpackrick, one of last year's guards, appeared on the hill. When Dr. Woodruff found who the men were he smiled a broad smile and gave each the glad hand.

The Chicago Times-Herald has a weekly column devoted to news from the various universities of the west, and a couple of weeks ago a writer from the University of Illinois reported the establishment in that school of a complete music course leading to the degree of bachelor of music, and claiming it was the first school in the west to establish such a school leading to a degree. The Kansas university folks saw this statement and the next week it **a** was corrected by the publication of the fact that the Kansas institution had had such a course leading to the degree of bachelor of music for ten years, and that there were ten graduates who received the degree at the last commencement of the school.
