The class in higher mathematics has finished Calculus and begun quaternions. The young ladies' tennis held a meeting yesterday at the end of the fourth hour. Well, how about that Junior party? Developments are awaited with anxiety. We wonder if the Juniors haven't done about enough meddling with Senior affairs. Prof. Miller has recently added fourteen volumes to his department in the library. No.26. Where do the Seniors keep their hats? The Juniors would like very much to know. The third term German class will soon begin the translation of a short German novel. The laws still continue to have weekly meetings of the Kent Club. They invite visitors. Prof. Snow amused the festive Freshman class with a squash story yesterday morning. The Junior girls say they wont go to the Senior party. Wonder who asked them to?

Regent Gleed's lecture last Friday night was attended by a large audience, representative of the University. A life like figure of Worden while making his excited speech of Tuesday was drawn by an interested spectator. A certain young man was heard to remark yesterday morning, "No telling who the next will be, it may be me." Roberts is still a sub rosa member of Athenaeum. We heard a member say that he is likely to remain one. The young ladies tennis club met last Friday. The club is anticipating much enjoyment the coming season. A number of students enjoyed the Paper Doll at the opera Saturday. Some were a little disappointed by the rain.

We suggest that they play base ball if they do not want to try foot ball for a time. The song association met as usual last Friday night in Athenaeum hall. Not a great many were present, but a lively meeting was held. Several of our students have had trouble in finding their hats lately. We suggest that a little more care be taken by those who leave first. For cheapmilinery goods latest (?) styles call at No.—but we forgot our spring stock has not *all* arrived yet. Great bargains in the near future. Worden, Enns and Gleason went forward to get mesmerized, last Monday night, but the operator was unable to do anything with them. A notice calling for a meeting to take steps toward the formation of an inter-fraternity base ball league was posted on Monday of this week. Yes, that's a fact. Mushrush should have known the State Oratorical Constitution by heart, and then he might not have been so taken back at Ottawa. The Science club holds a regular meeting to-night. An interesting program is posted and if you are interested in science it will pay you to go. Boating is just splendid on the river at present, and many of the students are taking advantage of the opportunity to give their "best" a cheap ride. Athenaeum Literary Society held a special session last Tuesday at one o'clock. The session lasted for nearly two hours, and was a very interesting one.

Prof. Marshi's lecture will be given next Tuesday night. Everyone should make arrangements to hear the professor, as all who have heard him know that he is always interesting.

At the faculty meeting Tuesday night, it was decided that the spring vacation would be Thursday and Friday of next week and Monday of the week following. Orophilian and Athaenum both meet tonight in their halls. These societies always have interesting meetings, and all students are invited to attend and become members. Visitors from town are welcome.

With cane and hat in hand he defied anyone to touch him, and even the brave (?) Juniors allowed him to depart unmolested. Prof. Dyche has received this week a specimen of blue heron from Kansas friends. The bird will be mounted, and will soon be placed in our fast growing museum.

Who says Kansas has no literary men or women. Prof. W. S. Franklin addresses the Unity Club next Monday night. The subject is Hypnotism and faith cure. As this subject is closely related to mesmerism and electricity, a very interesting paper is expected. Three of the Phi Gam boys have organized a mandolin club. The members are "Jerry" Fox, "Claudie" Johnson and "Jim" Challiss. Young ladies can now pass their flowers out of the second story windows. We are requested to state that much talked of loot race will take place next Wednesday afternoon without fail. Much dissatisfaction has been caused by the postponement of the race, and it is hoped it will be postponed no more The winner will be considered K. S. U.'s champion and will be prepared to accept any challenge from other schools. Do not fail to see the race, you will miss an exciting time if you do. Now that our foot race is almost assured fact, let some one get up energy enough to start something else. We have it on good authority that it would be an easy matter for the University to arrange a boat race with the Business College boys. We certainly have some good oarsmen. PERSONALS. Since the agitation of the subject of mesmerism, two young gentlemen have taken it upon themselves to sit in the library and try their mesmerising powers on the other students there. They claim to find lots of fun in it, especially in the anoyance it causes the young ladies, who are thereby caused to suffer in the cause of science. Scene in logic class, Wednesday morning—Student: “What is a conditional syllogism?” Chancellor: “Well, here is one as an example: If John stole the book, John is wicked. John stole the book therefore John is wicked.” The class bursts into a rear of laughter, which is continued tor about five minutes. The chancellor himself, smiles audibly, and seems to see the point. So the much mooted question is at last settled by the highest authority in the University. Congratulations. George M. Culver is a Beta. S. M. Cook, a K. S. U. graduate of '85, and at present principal of the Solomon City schools, will open the first county high school in this state under the new State law, next Sebtemtier at Chapman Dickinson County.
