A Suggestion.
We would like to call the attention of the students, who are just entering the University, to the desirability of keeping a file of the University papers, that you may be taking. Many students doubtless after having read the papers over, never think of keeping them. Others through carelessness or negligence lose several copies and then give up the idea of saving them, entirely. Of course you may say, "what use are they?" As soon as I read them, I do not care for them after that". Certainly, we will admit, that their intense value is not great. That even a copy of the Times is not worth as much in absolute value as an equal quantity of gold-leaf. But after leaving the University, the old halls and class rooms old friends and scenes of many happy hours, then is the time when you would prize a file of old papers. How much they would re-call, what fond recollections, what pleasant rememberances How many names almost forgotten they would bring to mind. How many pleas ant occasions, how many college pranks and practical jokes, a little line in this or that week's paper, would call before us Here is an account of a party you attended. Do you not remember how charming she looked upon that occasion, what beautiful eyes, how she stole away your heart and —, yes, but now you have all most forgotten her. Another has cap tured you instead. Then there is an account of that old ball game. Don't you remember how well our boys played and when the game was almost lost, won it? Don't you remember how you swung your hat and cheered? Why of course you do now. Then there is that literary fight. How anxious you were to be orator. But that barb and frat combination defeated you. Why, only a few years will pass, before you will forget "Who stole that book?" with all its many answers and vexations. Only a little time, a few months, a few years, until these days will be truly the days of the past. This is not merely sentiment of foolish fancy, but substance for sober thought. We know of college boys—now boys no longer, old and gray haired men—who hold their old college papers and memoirs as sacred as their Bible. Even go to many of the Alumni of our own University, only a few year have clapped since they have left old Oread, and ask them for a look at their old file of papers. See how highly they value them. No, this issue of the Times may not amount to much. There was nothing startling in the last number o the Review. But wait. Lay them away and see if time will not add to their value. In a few years you will hold a file of college papers, almost as dear, as you hold the remembrance of college days them selves. If you are not keeping a file o the Times or Review, begin at once. I will pay you.
Miss Alice Pettee of Osage City, was married last Tuesday to Mr. Ainsworth, of Toledo, Ohio. Miss Pettee was a student of the University three years ago, and was always a special favorite of her associates and teachers. The charming bride has always been a leader of society of her native city. The groom is a young man of sterling habits and prefers a bride from among the fair daughters of the "Sunflower State," to all others. The best wishes of the TIMES for their future happiness follows their pathway through life.

The Baker Index makes a very presentable appearance, but we are afraid they have undertaken too much in trying to combine a religious, scientific and students magazine in one.
The College Mercury from the college of the City of New York, in its issue of Nov. 26, adds to its usual attractiveness by an excellent wood cut and biographical sketch of the eminent historian, John Bach McMaster.
Exchange Gleanings:
From a glance at the Washburn Argo it is easy to see that A. W. Brewster can edit a college Magazine with the same facility that he can strike out the K. S. U. Ball Nine.
The Westminister Review for November contains an excellent article on "The Novel."
The *Hesperian* was the second exchange we received but we think it has been discussed sufficiently by our esteemed contemporary, so we will say nothing more about it for the present.
The Review for November is the most attractive number we have ever seen. The articles on the other colleges of the state is certainly a novel and instructive feature, while the manner in which the local matter is arranged calls forth the praise of all. The issue certainly reflects credit on the editorial ability of its editor-in-chief, Mr. V. L. Kellogg.
Unity Club.
Last Friday evening the parlor of the Unitarian Church was crowded with an audience to hear Mr. C. M. Emm's "lecture on" The Russian Schoolboy's "literature."
Mr. Eans is thoroughly acquainted with his subject and gave his audience a delightful glimpse into that country which we are wont to think of only as the land of Nihilists.
The translations read showed that the minds of Russian children are nourished by about the same class of stories as is found in American school books—though perhaps more wild and rugged.
It is by means of literature in the schools that the people are reached. The children are continually reminded of Russia's greatness, and are made to feel that Russia and the Czar are one. By inspiring a love of the country extends to every city, mountain and stream, and so thoroughly did that class of literature do its work with the speaker that he felt that in leaving Russia he had lost a Paradise, but a Paradise which he has no desire to regain so long as he holds his present political views. The address to Moscow, and to the caucasus were especially fine.
The speaker said that Russia has no great literature like that of England or of Germany—that her greatest writers are still living, but he felt hopeful for the future.
The lecture was full of pleasant instruction and many expressed the desire to hear Mr. Enns talk again on some phase of life in the country of his birth

Railroad Accident.
A STUDENT.
Last Wednesday week as the south bound passenger train on the Southern Kansas railroad was crossing a creek about four miles north of Baldwin, the bridge gave way, the baggage car and two coaches going down. The engine luckily escaped being wrecked, and proceeded to Baldwin after taking on board G. L. Perry, a University student, who was one of the worst injured. Several persons were pretty severely hurt. Quite a number of the students were aboard on their way home to say "grace" over the family turkey. The sudden stopping, caused by a broken rail and a rotten bridge created not very dignified rush toward the front end of the car by those seated therein. Durby hats, broken seats, the dignified man and the small boy, all joined promiscuously in the procession. The rich man lost his pocketbook, the near-sighted man his gold spectacles, and we all lost our dignity and many of us our senses. One lady with the evidence intention of crawling through a finger and the way she demolished that window glass without cutting her hand to pieces, was a mystery to all. When all were out of the coaches, some seated on ties, others lying on the ground, we must have presented to a hard hearted, disinterested spectator, a very amusing appearance. At last our engine appeared returning with a stock car and in this aristocratic concern, we procured to Baldwin, there to exchange it for cars more suited for our comfort and a little more to our fancy. Accidents on the railroads are of frightful frequency and the Southern Kansas, now a branch of the Santa Fe, at its best days was but a poor excuse of a road and it is badly out of repair. And if not already condemned it should be. The road is so rough that it is actually almost necessary to hold on to the seats at times, when no accidents are occurring, to keep from being thrown across the car by the rocking of the train. Yet while this accident was not due to any carelessness or neglect on the part of any one on the train, conductor or engineer, it certainly was due to the criminal neglect on the part of the company to keep the road in repair and it is no more than right that they should pay heavy damages. The company should be either compelled to keep the road in repair or surrender, their franchise.
Oratorical Association.
F. E. Rae and J. A. Mushhrush presented the claims of the two contesting factions, and did so in a manner acceptable to professional lobbyists. The legality of the shares in dispute will soon be decided.
NOTES.
The Oratorical Association controversy is at last to be amicably settled. The committee appointed by the faculty, met the members of the association, last Monday for the purpose of arbitration. The shares owned by the following persons were admitted without question, as legal namely Chas, Johnson, J. C. Fox, F. E. Reed, Joe Shellbarger, Edggar Martindale, R D. Brown, V. L. Kellogg, F. J. Craig, C. E. Street, W. A Snow, H. F. M. Bear, A. F. Roberts, Denton Hogboom, J. M. Challis, Mark Otis and L. D. DeCamp.
Some of the shares seem to have passed through many hands.
"To be or not to be" a share holder is the question which the committee decides to morrow.

A pony-brake is being built at the engine house. It is to be used to test the power and action of the engine under different loads. It will be used in connection with the new steam-engine indicator. Prof. Blake and the students of the electrical engineering department are making preparations for making a duty-test from the boilers, engine and dynamo. It will take them about a week, working night and day, to make the test.
