The new books on Domestic Relations for the Juniors arrived Tuesday. The Junior class begun the study of Democratic Resolutions, Monday. It is reported that there will be some additions to the Senior class soon. The Juniors have finished constitutional law in less time this year than ever before. Many members of the Kint Club are beginning to report their decision to meet at the court house. The Junior class now consists of 22 members, and the Senior class consists of 20 members. There is some talk that some members of the Senior class will bring a libel suit against certain other members of the class in the Moot court soon. Each member of the Senior class submitted a set of papers in a case of attachment to Prof. Summerfield, Monday, and he has been amusing himself during the week by criticising them. The Senior moot court held a stormy session Monday. Horton and Stebbins were attempting to foreclose a mortgage with Wade and Finrock for the defense. The argument lasted nearly four hours. Prof. Green did not render his decision at the close of the argument, but asked the boys to prepare briefs which he might examine before deciding the case. The principal point in the case was as to whether threats by a husband to leave the wife if she did not sign a mortgage, would constitute duress. The Kent club met last night at the court house and held a very interesting session. The following program was carried out: *Paper on "Trusts"* ... L. A. Stebbins Extemple rancorous speech* ... L. A.

As the work in the Electrical Engineering department advances, the need for a Mechanical Labratory is felt, more and more. To become thoroughly practical engineers, the students should have a machine shop, on a small scale, and have an opportunity to understand the intricate parts and workings of machinery. Although this department is the best one west of St Louis, yet, money can be very profitably spent in the establishment of a mechanical Laboratory for the study of mechanical engineering. The State has nothing of the sort where young men can learn to become first-class engineers. At Manhattan there is a carpenter shop or something of the kind, but it does not offer the desired opportunities. It is the design of the management of the University to make her, not only advance theories, but to afford actual experience and practice. When the people of Kansas are appraised of the fact, that their sons can obtain a practical education and that something other than the "dead languages" are taught here, then will the University become the favorite school, and her halls will be filled "to overflowing." If the wants of this department is not over looked by the Legislature, the department will make more rapid strides in advancement ever before. The assertion is indisputable that the best for the money in neckwear, shirts and all kinds of gentlemen's wear is to be found at Bromelsick's. Cold Hard Facts.

K. S. U. vs. Lawrence. The following is the score by innings: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7. The K. S. U. Nine defeated the town nine last Friday afternoon in a hotly contested game of base ball at the ball park on south Massachusetts street. The game was a battle of pitchers, in which Schilling, of the K. S. U., had a decided advantage over Sugrue of town nine. Only 5 scattering hits were made off of Schilling and 14 men went to the bat without even "finding the ball." Sugrue did some very good work by striking out 11 men. The game was called at the end of the seventh inning on account of darkness. K. S. U., 2011021.-7 Lawrence, 0 0 1 0 2 0 0.—3 Earned rons, K. S. U. 4; Lawrence 2. Base hits, K. S. U., 8; Lawrence 5. Two base hits, Moak; Umpire, Hill; scorer, Wiseman; NOTES. "Worbes" didn't have any gum Fri day. Schilling soon became the favorite of the spectators. Overcoats were in demand by the fielders. The grounds were in excellent condition and considering the coolness of the weather everybody played well. K. S. U. is now anxiously awaiting an opportunity to chase the Washburns and Doughthuts around the "diamond." A Cure for Love. 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 forgetfullness, 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 ease 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.

Wimmoth was in Kansas City yesterday, as a delegate from the Young Men's Republican Club, to make arrangements for the Grand Republican Rally which takes place at Kansas City soon. It is expected that the students will take advantage of the cheap rates to "take in" the city. Preparations are being made to make this the greatest political demonstration ever held west of the Mississippi River. At least 100 K. S. U. students will be in line in the parade. A Great Day. We make history, and the next age unites it. Time alone makes our works valuable. Great men are seldom appreciated until they are dead and gone. Genius often stalks abroad in the land, and finds no one so poor as to do her homage. By these incongruous and disconnected maxims, we have to impress upon your minds, that we are scarcely ever conscious of the great changes and events that are happening around us. Fernaux few of us can be convinced, that to-day, the 19th of October, in the year of our Lord, 1888, will be looked back upon as one of the great days of our century. That it marks an epoch, not in a political reformation, or a great religious awakening, but in the age of literature. You laugh. Yet stranger things have happened. Baron Maunchansen tells many a stranger thing than this would be. It would not be one half as strange, as if we should awake to tomorrow morning and find that two and two made five. You doubt our prophecy, but we will prove it. Take down from your shelf the special catalogue of the English department. Turn to page four. You read that all students in the Junior and Senior year, must hand in Forensics of not less than two thousand words, on this day, upon subjects chosen from list B. Ah now, my friend, however skeptical you may be, can you now doubt but what this marks a day in our literature? Think of it. Suppose to-day, there are only fifty of these papers handed in. That makes at least one hundred thousand words. Since each Forensic counts as a one fifth, study, but you are supposed to put upon it thirty solid hours of labor. Our figures begin to reach astronomi- Our figures begin to reach astronomical proportions. Think again. These one hundred thousand words have taken fifteen hundred hours of hard labor, study, research, mid-night oil, head scratching, hair pulling, and the expenditure of countless atoms of grey matter, brain force of the best students of the great University, of the great State of Kansas. And now, in face of these figures and facts, would it not be blaspheming most foul, for any to even harbor the thought, that in all of these one hundred thousand words, the result of all this physical and mental labor, there were not some glittering gems of thought, some new and radient truths, some wise conclusions, some precious knowledge that will go thunderning down the ages, and make this day forever famous among the days of men. To think otherwise would be absurd. Admitting that the writers may not have a world-wide reputation for brilliancy of thought and ponderosity of argument, yet what they lack in this will not List B simply? It most surely will. Think, if you please, how ponderous any Forensic must be which is written upon "The bearing of the modern conception of Hyerspace on the doctrine of the a priori character of geometric knowledge." Again, how remarkably esthetic is he who will attempt to discuss the aesthetical question: "Is charity harmful?" What a logician does it take to determine whether "Space is an objective reality?" How ancient must the young maiden be who can discuss in two thousand words the classical subject as to whether "the Stoikal ethical system is as practical as the Peripatetic?'" How profound in Natural History is the young man who can tell us, after arguing over twenty sheets of paper, whether "Mr. Fay made his ease in his "Iofense de la loi des tempetes ?" Yet, engaged in subjects like these, the mind of the average Junior and Senior feels perfectly at home. What a great day has this been which has wittenear the completion of fifty such forenses as these must be. Oh, how great is the Junior and Senior! Oh, how great is today! This Doubt itself must believe, and our wild prophecy is transformed into a stubborn fact. VIEWER. HOW THEY TALK ABOUT IT. "Si Perkins" Sets the People of Norwich in a Furore. Anyone who fails to see Frank Jones and his campany in "Si Perkins" at the opera house next Monday evening, will miss an evening of genuine pleasure. The play is one of the most popular on the stage, and is meeting with the success which made "Joshua Whitcomb," "Messenger from Jarvis Section" and "The Jerseyman" famous. Last evening the company was in Norwich and this morning's *Bulletin* awards them the highest praise when it says: "Frank Jones was given an ovation seldom awarded an actor in Norwich. The appearance at midday of his country band, with the red bandana waver in front, created a craze which never lost its force until the conclusion of the performance in the evening. Shortly after 7 o'clock the approach to Breed Hall was crowded with ticket buyers, and every seat and every inch of standing room was sold. There was a demand for seats beyond the supply, and many people were turned away because there was not room to accommodate them. The drama was made up of a series of thrilling scenes, bright and humorous repartice, fine music and eccentric sayings, and through the entire four acts, the audience was bursting their buttons off with laughter. The stage settings were new and effective and greatly increased the realism of the play. The people were well pleased with the entertainment, and the appearance of Frank Jones and Miss Montague here in the future will be a guardy for a full house. They have won permanent favor with Norwich showgoers." One of the hits in the play of "St Perkins" is Mr. Blaisdell's new song, entitled "That's the Idea." It has taken every town by storm. The K. S. U. nine played an interesting game of ball last Wednesday afternoon at the ball park with a select nine from "Johnson & Slavin's minstrels," resulting in a victory for K. S. U., with a score of 7 to 4. Sugre of the town nine occupied the "box" for the K. S. U., with Smith as catcher. Runnells and Schilling constituted the battery of the minstrels. Schilling, the phenominal pitcher of the K. S. U." tried his hand" at catching for the minstrels. The latest for girls is the "Boston" cap at Levy's. Who sells to students cheap for cash, And breaks high prices all to smash, And sells lump coal instead of trash. T's GRUFFIN.
