Science Club.
The meeting of the Science Club last Friday night was well attended in spite of the many other attractions on the hill.
Prof. Miller was the first on the program and gave an interesting talk on modern methods of mathematical work, particularly by the use of analysis. He said that a great deal of investigation in mathematics was now being carried on in a quiet way by gentlemen who were unknown to fame. Prof. Miller showed the best methods for solving such problems as, divide 14 into three rational squares, or find four squares whose sum is a square. He then gave a problem which had been sent to the mathematical department of the University from Pennsylvania in the belief that it could not be solved, and put upon the board the way by which he has solved it. This aroused an exciting discussion by the members of the Science Club, most of whom opposed the method used. Prof. Miller, however, had actually solved the problem, and he held his own against all attacks.
Mr. Slosson followed with a paper in "Aluminum and its alloys." The Chemical Department has recently purchased a complete series of these important metals and other specimens illustrating the process of manufacture from the Cowles Electrical Smelting Company. Aluminum is likely to come into general use as soon as it can be obtained cheap enough, for it possesses the tenacity of stell, with one-third its weight, and is not corroded by air or water.
Prof. Baily then gave a few notes, on recent discoveries in chemistry, which seem to lead toward a breaking down of the distinctions between the elements. The startling news from Germany that cobalt and nickel had been resolved into elements and one formed from the other, was mentioned but nothing can be known until the discoverer chooses to divulge his secrets, a letter from Mr. McLaren, a graduate from K. S. U., now at John Hopkins, was read and the club was much interested in learning of the methods of work there.
An invitation from the Manhattan Scientific club to exchange important papers, was received and many of the club seemed to favor such an interchange.
To-night there will be one of the most interesting sessions of the year. Mr. E. C. Franklin will bring in a report of his investigations in the sugar factories of Louisiana, and exhibit the samples he has collected. The University showed great foresight in sending one of the faculty to study this subject for sugar is now one of the products of Kansas.
Janauschek.
The great living tragic actress, Madame Janauschek, will present "Meg Merrilis" at the Opera House Monday night. The enthusiastic reception that was tended Madame Janauschek as she tottered on the stage last evening, hideous in makeup up in the tattered garb of "Meg Merrilies" must have been extremely gratifying to the great tragedienne, who through the force of her talent and genius has won a place on the stage that in her retirement it will be difficult to fill. A well-trained, studious, hard-working actress, bringing to every character the full force of her dramatic power, she has done nothing better than "Meg Merrilies." She has brought to this character the results of years of hard study and studious observation and has breathed into it the breath of genius until it becomes a living breathing flesh and blood creature in which the actress is lost sight of and only "Meg," hideous, defiant, loving, cringing and forging, is seen and heard. It is in every sense a character that will always live in the memory of those who witness it. The melancholy fire of those mysterious eyes, the low and awe-compelling tones of that deep, rich and vibrant voice, grand and imperious force and gesture, form a noble and ideal embodiment of lofty tragical conception.

The Sigma Chi Reception.
The year's society event among the young men of the Sigma Chi fraternity was the reception given by them at their beautiful and homelike hall in the Bowersock opera house block Friday evening. The young men had spared no pains in attempting to entertain their friends in a royal manner and their efforts were awarded with success. A number of young people from this city and neighboring cities were in attendance, and the evening was delightfully spent in dancing, card-playing and other social amusements. An elegant spread was served by Mr. W. C. Harris on the opera house stage and all partook liberally.
Returning to the hall again, dancing was resumed and "on with the dance" was the motto until the dancers began to grow weary and to take their departure for their homes. All present expressed themselves as having spent the evening very pleasantly and the young men can congratulate themselves upon being excellent entertainers. Everyone on departing declared that these Sigma Chi receptions should occur oftener.
Those present were, Misses Fannie Pickering, of Olathe, Lillie Turner of Topeka, Amy Hays, Gussie Price, Hattie McCarge, Mamie Lyons, May Webster, Mamie Henshaw, Etta Hadley, Nellie Morris, Nellie Rushmer, Allie Mason, Mamie Monroe, May Hair, Mamie Johnston, Anna Barker and Nellie Palmer; Messrs. Fireston, Voorhis, Fred and Jus Bowersock, Montgomery, Royster, Martindale, Hardy, Butler, Wescott, Adams, Swank, Morris, Smith, Taylor and Street.

Dear Sir:- In April, 1881 I suddenly received notice that my ordination examination which I took in a fortight, had only ten (10) days to be complete. I had only ten (10) days to recommend a year's preparation in the case of any one so utterly unprepared as I was; but your system had so strengthened my mutual interest and confidence, I should give the gist of any book after reading it once, I therefore read Lightfoot, Proctor, Harold, Browne, McMee, &m., &once, and was sure I would cover every word of Preschool of Edinburg knows the facts.
Faithfully yours.
