It is a source of great satisfaction to the University and its friends to learn that Hon. C. S. Gleed has been appointed regent.
AT THE meeting of the Kansas Academy of Science in Lawrence last week, over half the papers presented were by students and members of the faculty of the University.
THE INTERESTISG paper on "Openings for Women College Graduates," which we were permitted to publish in the last issue, was written by Mrs. Howland of this city.
THE RE-ELECTION of Professor Carruth as president of the Central States Modern Language Conference is a fitting recognition of the important part which he has taken in its organization and a source for congratulation in the institution which he represents.
LET NO one neglect to cast his vote in the election next Friday. The polls will be open in some room of the main building throughout the day, so that each one can choose the most convenient time for performing the duty, and every stockholder should take part in the selection of the staff for the coming term.
THE FOLLOWING paragraph, clipped from an article in the New York Evening Post on "Women Students at Yale," will be pleasant reading for Kansas University people:
"Perhaps the most important achievement of the women students, however, is that of Miss Laura E. Lockwood, who is now engaged in her final year's work. She is preparing as her thesis "A Lexicon to the Poetical Works of Milton," a few pages of which she sent some time ago to London for the approval of Macmillan. It was accepted, and will be published simultaneously in London and New York. The publishers have agreed to assume all the expenses of printing and to pay the author a royalty. Prof. Cook will write an introduction. Miss Lockwood took the degree of A. B. at Kansas University in 1891. The work on her forthcoming volume is not complete, and it will not be published till the fall of 1897."
The Lexicon will occupy in Miltonic literature, a place corresponding to that of Schmidt's well known Shakspere Lexicon in Shaksperean literature. It will be uniform with the three volume octavo edition of Milton's works.
