"Who stole the keys?" is the question at Westminster college. The foot-ball team will furnish some constraints for Field day. It is rumored that a new literary society will soon be organized. There will be no meeting of the Y. M C.A. next Friday evening Eames is skimming birds, squirrels and rabbits which will be mounted soon. Slosson will lead the Y M. C. A. meet one week from next Friday evening. It is reported that Otwell and Zand are buying dishes and domestic utensils. It amuses one of our innocent "preps," to see a fellow "rush" a whole fraternity. None of the literary societies will meet next Friday evening, owing to the vacation. One of the TIMES staff was invited to furnish a poem for the other ___ paper? Eames and Short gave an exhibition ast Friday afternoon of their skill in wolf-taming. E. G. Davis preached at the Congregational church, North Lawrence, Sunday evening. The Phi Gams gave a hop last Friday evening in their hall in the Eldridge House block. The lectures in the art department are coming to be quite a prominent and valuable feature. Several students are taking advantage of the German Sunday School to improve their German. Prof. Dyche has his wolf tied to a tree by a chain south of Snow Hall, where he studies the wolf's antics. A telegraph instrument has been placed in Prof. Sayre's study room in the basement of the Chemistry building. The menagerie at Snow Hall is steadily growing in size. The cayote and the prairie dogs are the principle attractions. Squires Hunt a Freshman was en- Squires Hunt a Freshman was engaged Friday in drawing a system of rules for the conduct of "Jame's Nasmian" Prof. J. H. Canfield is giving his beginning classes in French a daily "pill" in the form of an irregular French verb. Prof. Carruth is well satisfied with things at Harvard, and thinks that his time will have been profitably spent there. Improvements are being made in the chemistry building, in order that the building may be supplied with distilled water. The library will be open first Friday and Monday from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m., and from 2 to 6 p.m. Open Saturday at the usual time. At the faculty meeting yesterday, it was decided that the Thanksgiving hall days should consist of Thursday, Friday and Monday. It seems rather queer, that an event so important as the duniors getting the Senior cake, should escape the notice of so many reporters. Prof. Bailey was away on an import tant poison case last week instead of being in Hutchinson looking up salt as was reported in last week's TIMES. Prof. J. H. Canfield delivered a lecture to the pupils of the High School, last Friday morning. History was the subject of the Professor's remarks. The faculty held a meeting Tuesday at the end of the fourth hour and decided that the Thanksgiving holiday should be from Thursday to Monday inclusive. A block-tin pipe has been put in the Chemistry building, conveying the distilled water to the Quantitative Analysis class. It is a much needed improvement. Last Friday the Junior Law class held a meeting for the purpose of class organization and elected Wilmoth, president; Flannelly, vice-president; and Swatzell, secretary. The classin Freshman French has read two-thirds of Columbia. The story is a very interesting one, describing in the form of a novel, the revengeful spirit of the Corsicans. Yale foot ball team defeated the Princeton team last Saturday, and consequently are the champions of the world. The K. S. U. team will soon meet the champions. Prof. Dyche is making preparation for mounting a group of five wolves for the museum. The Professor has just completed work upon a pair of antelope and a number of South American birds. The Junior Freshman class had two lessons in "Joseph in Schrill." It is a story by Anerback, containing some 290 pages, and the class, consisting of five members, expects to finish it this term. The Times hopes that the holidays may be very pleasantly spent by every one of its readers, and that they may all return to work next Monday with a determination to improve the time hereafter to the best advantage. Prof. J. H. Canfield was very much amused to learn that he had been called a Pharmacy Phreak. Hereafter, he will probably call the exercises in his department, Pharmacy Phreaks. Prof. L. L. Dyche, V. L. Kellogg, and E. D. Eames were out around Blue Mound last Sunday hunting. They obtained quite a number of birds, some of which will be placed in the ornithological cabinet. Some of the young men would be pleased to have the four young ladies who enjoyed themselves so hugely in the reception room last Friday morning register the next time they favor the University with their presence. The first division of the Freshman Geometry class had a "quiz" Friday. As the Professors gave a "quiz" long enough for a two hours examination, some of the members come out looking rather despondent. Mrs. Paul R. Brooks entertained last Thursday evening, in honor of Mrs Helen Raymond, of the class of '83. Mr. Raymond was formerly a student of the University and is now assis'tant professor of engineering in Berkley, California. The class in Entomology is studying the Othoptera, the Kansas grasshopper. Prof. Snow, with the assistance of Miss Crotty and Mr. V. V. L. Kellogg and others, made a large collection of "hoppers" from different parts of the State. The lecture upon "The Pictures in the Kansas City Exposition" delivered in the art room Friday night by Mr.B.W. Woodward was well attended. Many who are not connected with the art department were present, and the lecture was enjoyed by all. It was real mean, the joke Smith played on Orrendorf. Smith lost the bet and was to wheel Orrendorf in a wheel-barrow from New Hampshire street to Tennessee. The barrow had some saw dust in it but Orrendorf did not think that there was grease beneath. An observing correspondent informs us that on last Friday evening in the University halls, he counted more than one hundred and fifty hats. This is a somewhat larger attendance on the hill on Friday evening than we had anticipated. The football association is now completed and the members meet for practice quite often. They expect to be able to cope with the Baker team in the spring. As but few of the members are going home to eat turkey, they will play every afternoon during vacation. Among the antiquities in our library is a folio edition of Pliny's Natural History, published in 1518. The binding and printing is very interesting when compared with looks of modern times. As the book is written in Latin, we may expect some of our ambitious classics to make themselves famous by translating it into English. Billy White, a Kansas University boy, with shape, white teeth and a face that ought to have been freckled, has written a poem on "The Inter Regnum" for THE UNIVERSITY TIMES that might pass for one of Jim Whitcomb Riley's. It will do to watch Billy.--Butts in K. C. Star. There seems to be considerable difficulty in regard to outlines of history. Several students who intended to take an examination on the subject, on entering last September, were told that was not required. Now, it appears that there was a misunderstanding, and that the examination must still be taken. Prof. Wilcox will deliver a lecture next Monday evening in Trinity church chapel on "Modern Home Life in Greece." The Professor is a pleasant speaker and has spent three years in travel and study in Greece, during which time he has acquired a vast amount of knowledge of the manners and customs of the inhabitants of that historical country. The "formerly" University boys are rapidly coming to the front. The last Nation contains a full page article on "Irrigation in the United States," by Stuart t O. Henry, of Denver, Colorado, for which he received a good round price. Mr. Henry was a student of K. S. U from '77 to '79 and his many friends in this city will be glad to learn that he is prospering—Tribune. From the Wichita Eagle's report of the Unitarian conference recently held in the "Windy Wonder," a paper on "Robert Elsmere," by Prof. Marsh, of the State University, was read. The able and masterly manner in which Prof. Marsh handled this subject was regarded as little short of wonderful. The conference decided to have the paper published in pamphlet form. Talk is cheap, but the prices of our tooth nail and hair brushes are cheaper Raymond & Dick. Saturday afternoon Professor and Mrs McDonald celebrated the first anniversary of their wedding by entertaining the Professors music class at their pleasant home on Tennessee street.
