We must not hope to be mowers,
And gather the golden ears;
Unless we have first been sowers
and watered the turbures with tears.
It is not just as we take it,
This mystical life of ours;
Life's field will yield as we make it
A harvest of thorns or of flowers.

A student of one of the higher classes some time ago wandered into the clerks office and inquired for a list of "Tenz" objects. While he did not say what he meant to say, yet that conveys about as much to the mind of the average reader as if he had asked for a list of theme subjects.
Prof. James H. Canfield will give a short talk this evening to the members of Athenaeum. Every person who wishes to increase his knowledge of California, will do well to attend. Read the program of Athenaeum in another column.

Prof. Blake asked the Board of Regents for a $10,000 appropriation from the Legislature, for the Physics and Electrical engineering department. K. S. U. must be liberally supported by the State if she keeps pace with her rivals. We have the brains, that is an excellent corps of instructors, and all that is wanted now is money.
A certain professor, who, by the way sweeps out his own sundy and washes his own windows, was going down the hall the other day with a broom on his shoulder and met some visitors whom one of the girls was 'showing' over the building. One of the lady visitors cautiously inquired 'if that was one of the janitors of the University.'
Prof. J. H. Canfield has donated, as a souvenir, to the library the badge that he wore at the National Teachers association, which met last summer at San Francisco. The badge bears the motto of California, "Eureka," which is supposed to have been shouted by a successful gold-hunter in 49. At any rate, the badge is a beautiful one, and the fact that our own James H. Canfield wore it, makes it all the more interesting to us.

Judge West returned last Monday after a three months absence in Western Kansas where he was hunting specimens for the Natural History department. He procured about 3,100 specimens, most of which are new to the department and many of which are entirely new ones. The collection made was largely of fossil Dakota leaves. The Judge reports a very pleasant time yet says he found plenty of work to do. Most of his work was done in Ellsworth, Ottawa and Cloud counties.
There seems to be some little misunderstanding among some of the students as to the right to the office of Secretary-ship of the Oratorical Association. At the meeting last Tuesday the Secretary's book was left in possession of C. E. Street. On Wednesday evening John A. Mushrush on the pretense of wishing to copy the Constitution carried off by force, or perhaps by trickery, the treasured Secretary's book. Several demands and threats were made but as yet the book has not been returned to the Secretary.
Some of the indispensable persons connected with all colleges have again put in their appearance, we are sorry to say, at the University. Although there is a rule against defacing or disfiguring the walls, etc., of the University, and the severe penalty of expulsion attached to such acts of violence; yet these reckless and unprincipled persons are "getting in their work." There is a saying that "Fools names like their faces etc" and it applies here. It will be necessary to make some one an example of what a faculty rule is when enforced. This is not confined to the lower classics more than the higher.

A Stormy Meeting.
According to a call of the executive committee of the Oratorical Association, the share holders of the association, and about fifty students interested in Oratorical affairs, met in room No.11, last Monday at end of the fourth hour with Hoggeboom in the chair. After spirited debates by several of the leaders and the continual challenging of votes, the meeting killed about one and one-half hours of time. The principal thing accomplished was an adjournment by a vote of 13 to 12. The two factions, that is the fellows who have run the affairs heretofore and those who want to do so, were nearly equally matched in strength, hence so much said and so little done. To an uninterested party, the conduct of the minority party resembled some "bull-dozing" scheme. College politics seem destined this year, to figure quite conspicuously in the University happenings. The object of the meeting was to elect a complete set of officers for the ensuing year. A meeting of the Oratorical Association has ever been one of the pleasant and spicy things of college life.

The following interesting case was argued in Moot Court last Monday: One Roe made entry on a piece of land under the homestead act and having lived on the land during the time prescribed by law. Roe proved up on the same and received his final receipt after this, but before he received his patient he mortgaged the land; but the government refused to issue the final patent for alleged irregularities in complying with the law. Can the mortgage be foreclosed against a person who afterwards files on the land? Shaeman and Murphy appeared for the plaintiff and attempted to foreclose the mortgage. Ennis and Workman appeared for the defense. Prof. Green reserved his decision until some future time.
The following interesting case will be argued in the Moot Court next Monday;
LAWRENCE, Ras. Sept. 1, 1887.
Six months from date I promised to pay to Amos Hutchings or order, one thousand dollars with interest at the rate of 12 per cent per annum from date.
JOHN WATSON
On the 1st day of January, 1888, the payee transferred said note to Peter Cooper writing the following on the back of said note;
For value received I hereby sell and assign all my right and title to the within note to Peter Cooper.
AMOS HUTCHINGS.
What relation does Hutchings bear to said note? Can he be held by notice of protest as are endorsers? Gray and McClinton will appear for the plaintiff and McLravy for the defense.
Dr. C. G. Howland was looking over the University Monday with Prof. Marsh. The Doctor is a hearty supporter of the University and is deeply interested in the progress made by the great western institution. He has donated to the Library the complete publication of the "Nation" in 46 volumes, handsomely bound, besides many other valuable items and containing no place in the Library at the end of each year, the issues for the year of the Nation. The Nation is notable for the manner at present, in which it denounces the "Protective tariff system."
