The Philological Club.
The Philological Club met last Friday evening in the Greek room. After the regular business of the Club had been disposed of the literary program was taken up. Professor Wilcox read a valuable paper describing the ancient Temple at Corinth. The Professor showed on a diagram the position of the columns of the temple now standing, and of an excavation revealing nearly all the old foundation. The temple was built about 600 B.C., was destroyed in 146 B.C., and was rebuilt by the Romans in the time of Caesar. "There are," said the Professor, "seven columns of the temple still standing. A somewhat recent investigation has located nearly all the columns which supported the temple. The outer and inner columns had separate foundation walls which were built of natural porous limestone and which extended as far down as the solid rock. The temple was 173 feet long and 69 feet wide and was supported by a number of large columns, six of which were in front. Five of these columns which were standing in 1784 have since that time disappeared. Earthquakes have undoubtedly impaired the foundation and some of the columns now standing are likely to fall soon. A comparatively good idea of the temple as it stood, has been restored, though of course part of it is conjectured." The Professor compared this temple with others, explained the "curve" in the steps, showed where the different halls, rooms and doors were, and explained the structure of the roof. The reading of the paper was followed by some remarks by Prof. Marsh. He said that Egyptian architecture appeals to the love of the stupendous, the Roman architecture, to the love of harmony and that the Dorie architecture appealed to the intellect and reason of man. Then a temple like the Partheron at Athens is of great value as a help in followingmans development in intellect, and in following those structures on approaches the rational structure of man. The curve illustrates the accurate age of the ancient, and in details the whole structure places before us the characteristics of a nation. The Professor said he found great delight in the study of Grecian architecture. In the absence of any further formal program he proceeded to open an informal discussion upon poetry, which Professor Marsh said is allied to architecture. He began by reading a portion of a letter from Prof. C.E.Norton of Cambridge. Mr. Norton in his letter says that he fears that we may not expect many more poets that the minds of people are turning so much to science. He urged Professor Marsh to carefully instill poetry into the students in the Kansas State University. Prof. Marsh proceeded then to state that since he received this letter he sent Mr. Norton a copy of the "K.S. U. Sunflower," and that in a later communication Mr. Norton expressed hope for a general revival of poetry, but that he (Prof. Marsh) regarded the compliment as a somewhat 'dubious' one. Prof. Marsh re-read a part of the letter and discussed the question from the former stand taken by Mr Norton. Continuing Prof. Marsh said: "I have read a part of this letter to show what so eminent a man as Mr. Norton thinks about American poetry. I wish to discuss it because I am opposed to the theory which he advances. I think we will have poetry because there will be men and women who cannot help translating their experiences. Last summer when all the other professors being gone, I alone was left to nourish the tender suckling of poetical literature in the University. I defended the "Sunflower" book against the persons who said the book was not a success because it had nothing about Kansas and about sunflowers in it. I think that poems on Kansas will succeed when some Kansan can see in the history of our State an illustration of life, but I do not think the absence of such poems deprecates the standard of our poetry.
Miss Rudolph said that she felt aroused by the remarks of Professor Marsh, and
I think it probable that poetry will revive and that even yet some Kansan may successfully write poetry upon the history of our Kansas."

hought that there must surely be a how for poetry even in Kansas. "I have often longed" she said "for mountain scenery, when first I came to Kansas the very atmosphere seemed unresponsive to poetic feeling. No sympathy seemed to exist between the people and the landscapes. But after living here four years I find I have much affection for Kansas, I think it is not impossible for a poetic feeling to grow up in our State, I feel very sure that it may." A suggestion was made by a member of a club that people sometimes become nearly dead simply by longing for mountains. To which Prof. Marsh replied: "An Egyptian Sphynx or Pyramid can interest one for a time but soon grows old. The same is true of mountains. I do not think the profoundest poet is inspired by mountains. Prof. Dunlap said that he did not recall much mention of mountainous scenery in poetry before the time of Addison. Prof. Marsh said that Petrarch climbed a mountain in 1,352. His letters tell of the impressions which he received. They were similar to those Goethe. The views called up the immense size of the universe, also the immensity of God and His love. The trouble usually is to get up the mountain. Dante himself disliked walking. Nature was rarely loved for herself alone before the time of Petrarch. "I think" said the Professor: "I shall not be accused of heresy if I maintain that mountainous scenery is not essential to poetry." Prof. Robinson: "I have for a long time been a resident of the State of Kansas. I have often noticed that persons who reside in the State two or three years and then move away, almost invariably return for they long for the sunny days of the winter. I think Kansas has her charms, and I have great hopes that the coming generation will not be wanting in its Kansas poetry." Prof. Dunlap wanted to know about the material tendency, and Prof. Marsh who has been all over southwestern Kansas this summer said: "I am not appalled by it. I do not see many signs of tendency toward materialism. I think the adoption of the best minds by science is more detrimental to poetry." Prof. Robinson asked if science might not be a help to poetry in the way of opening out new topics by investigation? Prof. Marsh thought it lead astray instead of helping. The poets business is not with the universe nor with metaphysics but with man. Things not human do not belong to him, but he has to do with the great moral and spiritual living. Prof. A. G. Canfield who had heretofore been an attentive listener said: "I am not silent from a lack of interest. I would be as optimistic as the others, if I were to express my hopes. I do not think environments the complete master of the situation. Poets, possibly at other times have seen as many opposing things, and scrapes are not springs of poetry. Experience of what the soul has gone through and the interpretations of experiences make up poetry." A few minutes were spent by Profs. Wilcox and Marsh in discussing the motives which inspire the scientific man of facts to read poetry after which the meeting ad-

Kansas Nickel.
Prof. Snow returned Monday from a few days trip to Logan County, Kansas, where he had gone to inspect the nickel mines. The mines are located about eight miles west of Russell and fifteen miles south of Winona. This is the Professor's second visit to these mines, he having made one visit in August. The section of land upon which the mineral was first discovered is now staked off into mining claims. A stock company with $30,000 capital has been organized and the mineral will be mined (8) on a grand scale. The direct object of the Professor's visit, however, was to examine the geological location of the deposit and to determine whether there was ever a volcanic upheaval or conspicuous displacement of the rocks strata from their original horizontal position. All nickel deposits of any consequence are found in mountainous regions and places where the rocks have been subjected to great pressure and heat. He finds no indication here of any volcanic or metamorphic action but finds many fossil remains. He procured a few valuable specimens of fossil fishes and saurians, shells, etc., within a new yards of the prospect hole. If nickel in any large deposit is found there it is under unusual circumstances. The minerals were analyzed by Prof. Bailey, who found from one-tenth to one-third of one per cent of nickel, which is in connection with cobalt. The indications on the whole are not very favorable but the stock company is not to be discouraged and will send a couple of carloads to the east and give it a fair test.
Republican Rally.
Preparations are being made for the largest Republican rally ever held in the west, to be held at Kansas City on or about Nov. 1. '88. McKinley, of Ohio, Kasson, of Iowa, and other prominent speakers are expected to be present and address the people. Thirteen flambeau clubs and all Republican clubs in Western Missouri and eastern Kansas will be in the parade. Among others the University Republican club has been invited to attend, and expects to accept the invitation. The railroad fare will be $1.00 or less for the round trip. The club will be entertained while there by K. C. clubs. A committee consisting of Messrs. Wixson, C. S. Hall and Russ has been appointed to take the names of all the Republicans in the University who wish to attend. Names must be handed in before Tuesday night. Oct. 30. '88, in order to procure badges. Only those having badges will be entertained.
The Merchant of Venice.
The legitimate drama will receive its first presentation of the season in this city at Bowersocks Opera House on next Monday night. The attraction is no less a one than Marie Prescott and R. G. McLean, whose appearance throughout the west have been the subject of such flattering press comment during the past two seasons. The Merchant of Venice will receive its first presentation in many years and owing to its instructive as well as entertaining tendency will claim the patronage of the intelligent in a manner not to be compared with any other amusement event of the season. Miss Prescott is an actress of the most unquestioned ability and genius, and as a reader of Shakespeare, the stage has never presented her equal. Mr. McLean is a young tragidian of phenomenal natural endorsement and presents a performance of Shylock, which by many of the best play critics of the time is regarded as the greatest conception of the Jew of Venice ever given to the stage.

PHARMACY NOTES.
Frod Kaiser spent Sunday with his mamma (?) at Eudora.
Two young lady students have enrolled and are taking the Junior Pharmacy Lectures and Matericamedica.
Prof. L. I. Blake will deliver a lecture soon before the Pharmacists on German Scientists and scientific schools. The Professor is a very interesting lecturer and a cordial invitation is extended to every one interested, to attend.
Martin O'Donnell, a Pharmacy of '87, of Concordia, Kansas, spent a few days in the city this week.
E C. Franklin writes from Donaldsonville, La., sixty-five miles northeast of New Orleans, that he likes everything very much but he sighs for Mrs. Johnstons boarding club. Evidently "bacon and cornfodder" don't agree with the Professor. As he is on a plantation and will have an opportunity to "rusticate," perhaps he will "come to his appetite" by and by.
The Pharmacy Department will be represented at Leavenworth by Professors Sayre, Baily and Weida. Prof. Sayre will read two papers, one on the "Analysis of Pepper" and the other on the effects of "Tea Drinking."
A Sad Accident.
A Cure for Love.
E W Cantrell, a member of the Senior Law class met with a very serious accident last Friday evening. As he was going down town on the west side of Massachusetts street, between Quincy and Berkley streets he received a heavy fall, caused by a defective side walk, by which fall he broke his left leg and is now lying in a serious and perhaps critical condition at his home, at 1204 Rhode Island street. Mr. Cantrell is a practicing attorney of Emporia, and came to Lawrence about two weeks ago to spend a year in the Law Department. He will be "laid up," most probably, for the rest of the year, and as he, like the majority of the University students, is not in the best of circumstances financially, the accident is a doubly sad one. Mr. Cantrell is a young man about 26 years of age, and has a wife, and so is not thrown upon the hospitality of strangers. The city authorities are responsible for the accident in as much as there is hardly a safe piece of sidewalk in the city. The walk on Adams street from Tennessee street to the top of Mt. Oread, over which five hundred students must walk five days in the week, is in a very bad condition also. After the city has paid a few heavy damage suits, perhaps the sidewalks will be repaired, but not until then. The University and her influences make the town, now why can't the city authorities take a little precaution regarding the safety of students. It has been said that "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."
Take 12 ounces of dislike, one pound of resolution, 2 grains of common sense, 2 ounces of experience, a large sprig of time, and three quarts of cooling water of consideration, set them over the gentle fire of love, sweeten it with the sugar of forgetfulness, skim it with the spoon of melancholy, put it in the bottom of your heart and cork it with a cork of clean conscience, let it remain and you will quickly find case and be restored to your course again. These things can be had of the apothecary at the house of understanding, next door to reason on Prudent street. For further information go to A. S.
