Bone, United States Attorney.
GEOLOGY DEPARTMENT
GETS NEW FOSSILS
Prof. Baumgartner Gives Collection from Cambrian Rock from British Columbia.
rossus from the earliest period of animal life on this globe have this fall been placed in the collection of the Department of Geology. Something over a thousand specimens have been added and as these came from geological horizons, or in common parlance, from rocks, not hitherto represented in the University collection, they fill many important gaps.
Probably the most important addition came as a gift from W. F. W. Baugartner, of the Zoology department, and was collected at Fields, British Columbia, from rocks of the Lower Cambrian age. As these rocks contain the oldest fossils, anything from such a horizon is especially desirable and doubly so when the material is very choice. The Lower Cambrian is the first period in the earth's history in which traces of animal life appear, and it has been millions of years since the fossils brought to the University this fall were living organisms. This collection is chiefly trilobites, small animals somewhat similar to a crawfish.
Another very valuable lot of material was collected by a member of the geological department at Ottawa, Canada, and as it consists of material of which there was none in the University collection it becomes a valuable addition. A third lot was received from Cincinnati and consists largely of shell fragments. As the species of brachipods are largely determined by interior characters this material is especially valuable for study purposes.
An exchange is being arranged with a mining engineer at Pittsburg, by means of which a box of European fossils will be received soon. These fossils will be composed largely of fossils from the Ordovician and Silurian eras, periods very remote in the world's history.

DR. LIMA TELLS OF LATIN-AMERICANS
A Great National Spirit in the Country Declared Brazilian
"A race without idealism is a race of servitude," declared Dr. Oliviera Lima, Brazilian minister to Belgium, who gave a lecture on "The Literary Evolution of Latin America in the 19th Century." in Fraser hall yesterday afternoon. Dr. Lima is a statesman and a finished literary writer. His ideals are high his language is fine and carefully finished, and his lecture portrayed him as an unusually talented South American diplomat.
He spoke of the work of the neo-Latin emancipation, and the perseverance, energy, and aptitude for self control that was exerted to attain this end. He mentioned two types of colonial intelects as shown in Andres Bello, "An American in heart and soul," a close critical student of the social construction period, and Larieno Lorenzo, secretary of the revolutionists, a radical and idealist.
Many determining forces entered into the spirit of these Latin Republics when they broke away from their mother country.
"The patriotism of Thomas Paine, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson influenced them greatly; Latin America imbibed the spirit of the French, of Rosseau and Hugo, Bolivar, one of the greatest literary critics of this time, remarked, 'A great monarchy is difficult; a republic impossible. In a constitution, no religious creed should be prescribed.' The constituent assemblies and constitutions of these Latin people in fact were tolerate, although a slight French influence crept in.
"The literature reveals these political conditions, breathing sentimentality of passions and griefs, and some feeling for the unfortunate savage, in which her heroic poetry and the prose and fiction The monster tongue was the outward expression in the time of the revolution."
"Below the slimy surface of these republics, powerful currents predominated which were able to transform the smooth waters of these republics into a boisterous sea." Such was the political condition in the 19th century. A spirit of idealism overroded the war effort asserted itself in the courts of Spain and Portugal in violence and disorder.
In conclusion Dr. Lima declared that the literature had imbbed various traits of European literature and had been influential in the transnational tective Latin American literature.
Again, Dr. Lima repeated the influence of Hugo, and Rosseau that influenced the spirit of the literature. The Eclecticism of Cousin, and the Positivist training, a philosophical cult mixed with spiritualism, the sound belief of Humanitarianism, and the severity of English institutions modified the restless ideals of the time. The religious influence always predominated. The religious austerity was assuming aspects of idealism;

Special to the Daily Kansan by United Press.
Fenway Park, Boston, Oct. 16.—The Boston American league baseball team won the title of world's champions here this afternoon by defeating New York, 3 to 2 in a ten inning contest.
The tenth inning brought one of the most exciting finishes that the fans at Boston ever witnessed. The Giants, determined to end the game, came strong in their half and scored one run on Murray's double and Merkle's single. Boston came back fighting and Engle, who was batting for Wood, got life on Snodgrass's error. Hooper flied out but Speaker pulled in a solo hit, putting them in front of who was weakening rapidly under the strain. The Boston second base-man was pushed along to third and scored the winning run on Gardner's long sacrifice fly.
The Giants broke the strain of the first two innings by scoring the first tally of the game in the first half of the third. Devore walked to start the inning and was pushed along a base on two felder's choice plays and dinted the rubber when Murray slashed out a double.
From the start of today's battle it was evident that both teams would expend every ounce of energy to win. Stahl picked Bedient, the younger spinner who spotted play have with the Giant batters in the third period, and caught the mound. McGraw's choice was the "Grand Old Man," Mathewson.
Boston's youngest, while not twirling as superly as his opponent, was in fine form and pitched steadily, allowing but few bingles.
The contest developed into a pitcher's battle between the youngster and the "old head." But not as in the former contest Matty had the edge. He checked the Red Sox at every turn, making the hardest hitters dump easy files into the waiting hands of New York outfielders. Up to the sixth inning Speaker, Gardner and Wagner were the only Boston men to get hits off the Giant's star mound artist.
Fourth Inning.
Joe Wood, who was knocked out yesterday was sent to the mound for Boston in the eighth and the Giants did not score.
First Inning.
Boston turned into the "lucky" seventh one run to the bad but before the eventful innings was over a pinch hitter had hit and the score was tied. Gardner opened the inning by flying out to Snodgrass but Stahl revived the spirit of the home rooters by hitting on a stinging single. Wagner走开 and pushed his leader along a base. At this juncture Stahl's brain worked fast and he jerked Bedient to let Hendrickson bat and the move proved successful. The pinch hitter doubled and the Manager came home with the tieing run. The Boston fans went wild.
With everything depending on the selection of the right pitcher Managers McGraw and Stahl each had three of their men working out before this deciding game of the world's series today.
Mathewson, Marquard and Ames worked out for New York while Stahl, had Bedient, Wood and Collins limbering up. The Giants dashed on the field in a body confident and ready to carry the fight to Boston as they did yesterday. Their practice was full of dash. The Red Sox won in two games — "With today's attendance 270,000 people have paid $520,000 to see the series. The crowd today was the smallest of the series, about 20,000."
