Our Foot Ball Club has begun practice, and will soon be ready to meet other clubs in a match game. To-night will be a bad night for the literaries, as nearly all their members will probably be in Emporia. It was reported in the halls several times this week, that "when rogues fall out honest men get their dues." Zeology did not recite on Friday morning last. Prof. Snow was called on to entertain some legislative visitors. The shares in the Oratorical Association were taken almost as quickly as the TIMES shares when it was started.

Some of the law students are trying to be "funny" by attempting the organization of another Oratorial Association. At the Courier meeting last week J. A. Mushrush was elected editor-in-chief, Brewster and Challis, business managers. Hail made the lucky guess for thd last share in the Oratorical Association last Wednesday.

Kansas City is to have a new morning daily, the Kansas City Globe. The paper is to be Democratic in politics and will probably make the Times and Journal rustle or loose patronage. It was very pleasant to see such enthusiasm as was shown at the last meeting of our Song Association. It is hoped that the students will continue to show their interest in this direction. Prof. Mara. ' has been reading Cymbelate to his Shak. "appeare class this week, previous to enter." *up upon the study of the play.* The Laws posted a b. bulletin yesterday, calling for a meeting to o. "gnize another Oratorical Association. The bulletin caused much amusement for a time. It seems that Dan Crew has returned from his South American trip and is now at Parsons, Kas.

This is the first of a series of five. The recital will be held in Prof. MacDonald's room on the third floor. Mr. Manning and Miss Franklin will take part in the evening's entertainment. There is probably no place that has more accommodating letter carriers than Lawrence. The students have been especial recipients of favors at the hands of the letter carriers, and they should show their appreciation by attending their first annual ball next Thursday evening. Our best singers and musicians have consented to participate in a concert to be given next Tuesday evening in the New Merchants Bank hall for the benefit of the Episcopal church. We believe Prof. Saunderson is also to contribute a reading to the program. An interesting evening may be expected. Miss Nellie Morris entertained a small number of her friends Monday evening in a most delightful manner. Card playing was the principal amusement, interspersed with music, and a course of delicious refreshments, which makes the heart of the average student rejoice. Miss Morris is an excellent entertainer. The first two meetings of those interested in college songs have been a decided success. Many song-books have been distributed among the students, and the interest manifested is a matter of pride not only to the originators of the scheme but to all who desire to see an awakening of a genuine University spirit. Now let us organize a Glee Club which shall assume the management, and another element so necessary to college life will be assured. Misses Lou and Anna Kenyon entertained a number of their friends last Wednesday evening in honor of their brother, who has returned from California to spend a few days' recreation at home. The evening was delightfully spent in games and various social amusements. When refreshments were served, each guest was presented with a beautiful button-hole boubuet, which made very appropriate souvenirs. Those present were Misses Parker, Manley, Fullerton. Morris, and the Misses Henshaw; Messrs. Brown, Lutz, Swope, Morris, Caywood and Fullerton. The students who failed to hear Mr. Whitman's paper on Miss Alcott Monday night missed a rare treat, as it afforded an opportunity of hearing from Mrs. Alcott's own letters many pleasant and interesting events in her life. These letters were written to Mr. Whitman who at tended school when a boy, in Concord and was a warm personal friend of the Alcott family. Mr. Whitman arrayed her material admirably and the letters supplemented the reading from the books of the gifted author in a very interesting manner. Next Monday night Mr. W. M. Hayes will read a paper entitled "Three Stars" treating of three prominent New England authors. The social hour will be made specially attractive.
