Pinafore for The 'Varsity Stu. students.
Lawrence people have had a deal of enjoyment this summer out of a wonderful presentation of Gilbert & Sullivan's best comic opera, "Pinafore," a comic opera sung and acted by wee tots of children, and with a faithfulness to score and lines which would be creditable in older actors. Two nights and one afternoon was this juvenile Pinafore on the Bowersock boards, and two nights and one afternoon the population of Lawrence did its best to squeeze itself into the Bowersock doors.
This treat is to be offered to the students of the University. Miss Georgia Brown, whose appearance at the University concerts—now, unfortunately, only remembrances—was always the event of the program, is the stage and musical director of the juvenile sailors, and she has kindly arranged for a reproduction of the opera in order that the students of the University may share in the enjoyment had by the Lawrence people September 4th, 5th and 6th. The price of admission will be low, and a genuine student audience should take possession of the opera house.

North College.
North College was built in 1859 under the auspices of the Presbyterian church and was made the University of Kansas by formal action of the legislature in 1864. Here the first classes of the University were organized and here the entire work of the University was done until 1872, when the work was all transferred to the new building, now called the Main Building.
The vacated building soon lapsed into a deplorable state of dilapidation and was unused, save for an armory during the existence of the college militia company, until in 1881 the legislature established the state asylum for feeble minded in this city and for the time being located it in north college. It was put in repair and in the fall of '81 was opened for use by Superintendent Rev. H. M. Greene. In 1887 the asylum was removed to the building erected for it at Winfield, and from that time to this the building has been untenanted except by a family who have for the greater part of the time occupied two or three rooms in it. The grounds, which are as fine as may be found in the state, grew up with a rank growth of weeds and under brush and old untrimmed hedge until they became an eyesore to the city.
All this has been changed. The grounds have been made neat in appearance and the building has been made to look almost like new by the skillful use of paint, plaster, kalsamine and paper. The two rooms on the north side, up stairs, have been thrown together for a music room. The basement rooms will be used by the art department and the first floor will be occupied by the law department. The law library has been transferred to this building.
Mr. Geo, Innes and family have returned from a two months vacation in the east and in Canada. While east Mr. Innes purchased a magnificent stock of goods, shipments of which are arriving daily.
NOW we have you among us again and we are in a splendid mood to do business with you. Never felt more like it. Your presence lends new life to the town and increased activity to business. We are as ever, the same I. C. G., waiting and eager to serve you.
We Are Headquarters for Clubs,
And as our goods are always of the finest and best quality; as good as can be bought, and
Our Prices as Low as Can be Made,
We easily understand why it is that we enjoy your liberal patronage.

A Tale with a Moral.
A special six inch gun has just been made at the naval ordinance foundry at Washington, and the ordnance officers are tickled half to death over the fact that it has been constructed in fifty-two days.
828 Massachusetts Street.
It is a small gun, as guns go nowadays, and it wouldn't be worth much for defense against a first rate power. But if such a power should attack us it would take at least fifty-two days to make another one like it.
And in fifty-two days from the declaration of war a foreign fleet would have bombarded New York and Boston and Baltimore and Charleston, and sailed away again. In these days nations don't wait a year after declaring war before beginning to fight.
The obvious moral is that we must prepare for contingencies while there is time and opportunity.—Norwich Bulletin.
