You can buy as good in every respect for one-half the money charged for merchant tailors' Suits and Overcoats. They sell for $45, $50, and up to $75. We only ask $20, $25 and up to $35. Our suits and Overcoats were made in the dull season by the best men tailors. The cloth and trimmings we use in our extra fine Suits and Overcoats are just the same as used by the best custom tailors. It is no secret that the fine ready-made clothing trade of to-day use more fine goods than the custom tailors. As to fit and style we lead. It is a fact and cannot be denied that the time has come when a man can be well dressed for half what it cost him when he went to his tailor for his outfit. We could easily explain why we can sell at the very low prices we do. First the volume of business, then no risk in misfits, and so on--can't go through the whole list of reasons—but suffice it to say for this time, call and inspect our extra fine clothing made by men tailors at one-half the price charged by custom tailors all over the country. No trouble to show goods. Strictly one-price to all. We show medium and low priced Suits and Overcoats, all thoroughly made and better for the money than can be found elsewhere in this city. We also carry a full line of Gentlemens' Fine Furnishings, Hats and Caps at popular prices. Don't forget our bargain counters. Our children's department is brimful of Special Bargains. CLEAN THE COUNTERS! is the cry at W. W. MORGAN & CO'S, One-Price Clothiers, Hatters and Furnishers, 1009-1011 MAIN ST. Kansas City, Mo. Thanksgiving is coming but that need not keep you from stopping in at McCullough Bros., to get shaved. 200 custom made overcoats of the latest styles, in cloths and cuts, just received at CRAINS & URBANSKY'S. Bromelsick will make a specialty of winter caps, underwear, socks and neck scarfs for the next few days. Address Before the Art Department Winter caps at Abe Levy's. ment. Prof. A. G. Canfield delivered an address last Friday afternoon before the department of Art on "Art and the University." Quite a large number of visitors were present and were well paid for their pains of "climbing up" the hill The Journal of last Sunday morning printed the lecture in full. The address was very interesting as well as instructive and any student who was not fortunate enough to hear it, will be well repaid for his time if he reads it. The Professor spoke of the general disrespect for all subjects that tend toward all higher education, and of course Art is included. The American people as a whole, possess the lack of enthusiasm and of love for the higher culture and attainments. That the failure to love art, leaves our education incomplete and one-sided, that we do not know more of the human spirit unless we have a love for art, that the works of artists stand as monuments of nations and races of men who have long ceased to exist. That the Art Department welds great influence upon civilization and has been and is a great factor in bringing about good results. The Professor closed his address with: "Somehow we feel, Phillistines though we be, that a State has failed of its crowning grace if it has produced no great art. We hear much said of an American art and of the great American artists, and now in the first years of our second century—we have lived so very long—some are asking whether he will ever appear. And here in Kansas our local pride and ambition are as great for an artist as for the biggest corn and fattest hogs, and the newspapers ask and the people echo: Why should not Kansas produce the great American art? Our towns are as large and perhaps as restlessly alive as those Italian cities in which, in the seething time of the fifteenth century, the great age of painting dawned. Why may not our oil be the home of a great American school of painting? Perhaps it may—perhaps. But of one thing you me be sure. That day will not come as long as you, the representatives of the better knowledge of the people, have no desire to be artists yourselves, as long as you love politics, and money-getting and oratorical elections better than you love the quiet contemplation of a great statue of a great picture. It will not come as long as you send men to make our laws in whom we must be afraid to ask for money for art. It will not come, in short, until the people love and crave that which is beautiful—until they love art. And if you would shorten our waiting for that day, the most helpful thing you can do is to love art yourself." Chemistry Notes. Why are the rooms of the chemistry building so cold in the morning? A. R. Stover left last Saturday for Texarkana, Ark.. where he has accepted a lucrative position as prescription clerk in a leading drug store in that city. The noble Seniors of the Pharmacy department are engaged in making pepsin from hog's stomachs. The Senior pharmacists held an interesting meeting last Tuesday. L. W. Snapp was chosen to fill the office of class president vacated by A. R. Stover. Prof. and Mrs. Sayre entertained the members of the Senior class last Monday evening. A few hours were very pleasantly spent in social pastimes. The Pharmaceutical society held its regular meeting last Friday afternoon. A very interesting program was rendered. Hilton presented a well prepared paper on "Society work among Pharmacy students." The society meets every Friday afternoon in the lecture room of the chemistry building. The question for discussion this afternoon is. Why should a light-skinned, tall, bony, muscular farmer live longer than a short, stout, dark drug clerk. Prof. Sayre is mourning the loss of his dog. The death was caused by arsenical (7) poisoning. Professors Bailey and Sayre and Mr. Slosson are making a scientific examination of the exact cause of its sudden death. The reception tendered the young gentlemen of the class of '89 by the ladies of the class, was held on Tuesday evening, November 20, at the residence of Miss Annie McKinnon, 1409 Massachusetts street. Senior Class Reception. The evening was beautiful as the occasion demanded. The handsome parlor, tastefully decorated with chrysanthemums, added cheerfulness to the surroundings. By 8 o'clock the guests had all arrived only to be received with a royal welcome at the hands of their hospitable entertainers. The class colors, white and old gold were soon displayed by the members of the class. A vocal solo, by Miss Merrill, appropriately opened the evening's entertainment. After mutual greetings the young gentlemen were ushered into the front parlor to await the surprise that had been prepared for them. The curtains between the parlors were soon drawn aside, and the unexpected appearance of Miss Manley and Frank Reed, as well as their strange department, indicated that a play of some kind was one of the features of the evening. "The Mouse-trap" was then rendered by Miss Manley and Mr. Reed, assisted by Misses Newlin, Eddy, Crotty, Merrill and McKinnon. It still would indicate that it had been selected not only for the interesting features of the play but with special reference to the young gentlemen who were anxiously awaiting developments in the other parlor. The peculiar appropriateness of the play, as well as the excellent bearing of the participants, only added to the interest of its presentation and to the laurels of the young ladies. The young ladies now joined their classmates in social conversation until ten o'clock when supper was served. Each plate was surmounted with a card bearing a quotation together with a neat souvenir of a mouse-trap of unique design which was much appreciated. The reading of the quotations produced much merriment not only for the merit of the selections but for their individual adaptability. After the banquet Miss McKinnon, as toast-mistress called upon Miss Crotty to respond to the sentiment, "Our Recording Angel," otherwise known as Prof. Marvin, V. L. Kellogg responded to "Our Graduates." Their success bespeaks many words of hope and cheer for the class of 89. Miss Manley read a class poem that was full of friendly associations. The class now returned to the parlers where a piano solo by Miss Eddy was much enjoyed. The remainder of the evening was occupied with the singing of college songs which were enthusiastically responded to by all present. The mutual pledges indulged in evinced the hearty good will that entered into the spirit of the songs. The hour of midnight, the appointed time, indicated that the first annual reception ever tendered by the young ladies to the the young gentlemen of any class in the history of the University was at end. The young gentlemen departed with many expressions of thankfulness and praise for the hospitality of their entertainers and the enjoyment of an evening long to be remembered. The invisible notority of inaugurating such an event and the merited success attending it belonged to the loyal girls of '89. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. Geo. L. Dick, Mr. and Mrs. B. J. Dalton, Misses Annie McKinnon, Kate Merrill, Mamie Manley, France Eddy, Gertrude Crotly, and Flora Newlin, and Messrs. H. Buckingham, V. L. Kellogg, L. T. Smith, F. E. Reed, A. L Sloan, W. T. Caywood, Sid Phillips, Jos. Jacobs, F. L. Morris, S. A. Harvey, A. D. Kennedy and E. E. Squires.

LAWRENCE, KANSAS Science Club The number attending the Science Club last Friday night was less than the interest of the program merited. Political enthusiasm was too strong for our president to resist, and Dick Short was chosen chairman pro tem. Prof. Bailey was first on the program, and gave an account of the recent meeting of the Kansas Academy of Science at Leavenworth, to which the members of the Science Club contributed so much. The next paper was by L. T. Smith on Ice and Refrigerating Machines. He gave the scientific principles on which all such machines were based and then described the earliest attempts at artificial ice making. Among the first was an invention of Sir William Siemens using chloride of calcium, which was followed by one employing ammonium nitrate. In most of the early machines cold was produced by the expansion of compressed air. This style has been mostly abandoned except in England and the rapid evaporation of some volatile liquid employed instead. Animonia is used in preference to either on account of its cheapness. Mr. Smith gave in detail the construction of the refrigerating machine used in the Swift fresh meat house at Kansas City, illustrated by black board drawings. The animonia gas in that process is driven off in a tall cylinder surrounded by steam pipes. It is then condensed and forced through a half inch pipe into the large pipes which run through the brine tanks. This sudden expansion cools the brine which is then convected through the meat rooms. A saturated solution is again made by the animonia gas, so the process is continued and there is little waste. Mr. W. S. Franklin gave the method by which physical problems could be solved by mathematical processes. He showed that although basis of all physical knowledge was empirical, the deductions from this foundamental facts could be made absolute by the use of mathematics, and he explained the derivation of the ampere, the ohm, and the volt from a few simple experiments. The 10 o'clock bell cut off the discussion on this paper. K. U. Star: The Regents of the Kansas State University were in session at Lawrence two days last week examining the reports of the Chancellor and professors and making estimates of the expenses which the Legislature will be asked to make provision for at its next session. There is a demand for increased library facilities, for needed additions to the apparatus and for generally enlarged facilities in all branches of instruction. These wants have increased with the growth of the University, which now takes high rank among the institutions of learning in the west and which every year exerts a more important influence upon the destinies of Kansas. The University furnishes to every young man and woman in Kansas the means of obtaining a liberal education without going beyond the boundaries of the State, and under conditions which are in the highest degree favorable to students of moderate means. It is certain that the Legislature of Kansas can make no more judicious investment of the public funds than to vote such appiations as are necessary to place this institution upon a footing that will enable it to accomplish the largest possible measure of good. Students and everybody will do well to call on us and be fitted out in Shirts and Underwear that have been made to order for parties and not taken.
