more lenient to the foot-ball players and strew their paths with roses instead of thorns, K. U. will be able to go into the approaching game unhandicapped.
'Grand-stand Jimmie' Kelsey called at the University last week. He came from Hiawatha on his bicycle and after a three days visit with friends in Lawrence, wheeled back home again. Jimmie will manage the Emporia Base Ball club this coming season and will no doubt land the state pennant in Lyon Co.
In a half page article headed "An Arctic Nimrod," the Kansas City Journal of last Sunday, gave a very interesting description of Prof. Dyche's recent trip to the North. The story is told in the Professor's own words, and is the result of an interview secured by Mr. Frank Marshall of the Journal.
Mr. John L. Marshall, traveling secretary of the Student Volunteer Movement, will spend next Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 23 and 24, with the Christian association of the University. It is expected that he will address a public meeting in Music Hall Sunday afternoon. Watch for definite announcement.
Governor Morrill has made the Young Women's Christian Association of the University a liberal offer of fifty dollars if they can succeed in getting a certain number of subscribers for the new Kansas magazine, the Agora. It is to be hoped that the students and citizens of Lawrence will be liberal in subscribing since the Agora is a good magazine and the only one of the kind published in the State.
Hobble Gobble! Fight and squabble! Zis Boom Bah!
Category, Category, Rah, Rah, Rah will ring Saturday night, when the Category club will give a dance in Journal Hall. The party is to be made up exclusively of Categor-
ians, and a pleasant time is anticipated. Tommy Ricksecker, who has run the club for three years, will be succeeded Monday by a new steward, and this is the inaugural ball preparatory to the change of administration.
"A thief! A thief!" is uttered daily in the University halls. Some person or persons are helping themselves to various things belonging to other people. Books are being stolen, hats are missing, and the guilty party is still unknown. There is a personal and moral responsibility devolving upon every student to report any and all information that may come to him in regard to any misdemeanor or wrong act committed on the hill, and if every student should do his duty in the matter, this wholesale thieving would soon cease.
The Local Editor's Vision.
While one night at 10 or later,
We were busy on our "Paper"
Writing notes of every nature,
Local notes of Oread, —
As we sat in deep reflection,
Thinking where to make correction,
Suddenly appeared a section
Of the issue, marked in red,—
"Well, how's this!" said we, half frightened,
"Are you here to help enlighten
Us in composition, poor?"
Perhaps it murmured, 'nevermore.'
Then we scanned the section closer,
(We thought ourselves a fair composer)
And found that we had struck a roaster,--
Every line was red as gore—
"Who, this critic, sage and solemn,
That dares assail our local column,
As if he were a William Cullen,
William Cullen as of yore?
'Tis some English class," we muttered
"Fresh-Fresh-Freshman class we stuttered
"Only Freshmen,-nothing more."
