Prof. McDonald is after the scalp of the man who did it. An annual Science Club banquet is now an assured thing. Will some one please tell us what a "resident graduate" is? The boys say that Yoha and Davis are a hard team to beat. There will be no more society meetings until next year. The civil engineer boys have put in three days in the field this week. There are a large number of entries for the Field Day contests. All collections in Prof. Snow's department must be in by noon to-day. It is said that Prof. Carruth will pursue the trade of painting, this sum- ver. We have all resolved that exams are failures and should be done away with. The Phi Gams and Phi Psis will both entertain their lady friends next week. The new Natural History building as portrayed on canvass will be a daisy. Here our school year is almost gone and we have not heard of a single picnic. The prospectus for Prof. Spring's history of Kansas have arrived See E.F. Caldwell. Prescott now boards around the corner, but he still picks his teeth in front of Pershall's. The beginning German class will be in the Spring term instead of the Fall term after this. Gilmore has been taking lessons on the flute. We never could have believed it of Solon. We wish some one in a fit of kindness would inform us why Blair left the concert so early. All back work in Prof. Canfield's department must be made up by today at one o'clock The new joke on Crowell is a good one. It is not very long, but we promised not to tell. Some of the boys speak of remaining here all summer—to attend summer school you know. The Leavenworth High School girls are daisies—we are all broke up on them. Come again. We prophesy: A fine game of base-ball. A good Field Day. A good contest to-night. A week of fun for everybody. An immense crowd. Lots of buggy riding Sunday. That we will go home busted. Lots of buggy riding Sunday. That Hope's business will decline after June 10. That the next issue of the Courier will be a daisy. The finest commencement K. S. U. has ever seen. Tickets to the gallery at Bayard's banquet can be secured at 25 cents at the Courier office. Ponies were in great demand this week, but the bottom has dropped out of the market now. Higgins on "Tolerance;" and McLaren on "Cardinal Richlieu's Ambition" carried the day. A certain young lady says she doesn't like to have K —r kiss her because he bites so hard. A. P. Fellows and W. W. Russ have fine collections of birds in for one of the prizes in Zoo. The next COURIER will be issued Wednesday morning. Look out for it, it will be a good one. One of the boys who is put down as J. P. in the catalogue is running a weekly paper at Sabetha. The requirements for admission to the Freshman class have been raised by twenty weeks of German. Shattuck is fast losing his good sense. We heard yesterday that he was almost as crazy as Wemple. The Science Club "feed" was so successful that it has been decided to make it a regular thing hereafter. Cruise and Ketner have a dasy scheme for the foot race. We warn the 'igres to look out for them. as music will be unusually fine during next week. For commencement day it will come from Kansas City. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, JUNE 5, 1885. Prof. Dyche secured a monkey of the John Robinson circus, and now has it very prettily mounted, in a study on Darwinism. The collections of birds this year are the finest ever handed in. That of Will Russ are especially worthy of mention. Why does not the chemical building appear in the catalogue? We believe in showing off all you have, and the chemical building is one we need iot be ashamed of. One hundred and seventy-five in the collegiate department. Come on, Washburn and Baker, we are ready now for a comparison. All students whose subscriptions are paid by June 10, should see that the managers have their address that they may receive the Courier during the summer months. The Phi Gams and Phi Delts met in friendly contest on the diamond last Friday afternoon, and victory perched upon the banner of the Phi Delts. The banquet to be given to Secretary Bayard will be the finest ever given in the city. This is as it should be; we cannot pay too much honor to such a distinguished citizen. Hurrah for McLaren. 'Rah for Higgins. The discontinuance of the Normal department brings a like end to the Normal German classes which have been so convenient for students with back work and conflicting studies. Field Day is now an assured success. The business men have not been backward in giving prizes, and the students are entering into the thing with something like old time enthusiasm. The Washburn base-ball club is expected, and if they do not come a game will be played with the town boys. On last Monday evening the last musical concert of the season was given, and the success of the entertainment was very gratifying both to the audience and management. The vocals were unusually good, and the instrumentals elicited no less applause. A large crowd was in attendance. Prof. Sterling and family, together with his brother and family contemplate spending the summer months on the plains of western Kansas in a "prairie schooner." The professor makes this trip especially for pleasure and recreation. We hope to see him return in the Fall sunburned and in his usual good health, with his hair cut long. Prof. Canfield, president of the State Teacher's Association, was in town yesterday in the interest of the December meeting. He expressed the utmost confidence in the success of the executive committee in working up great gathering—the greatest ever held in the State. The program is already nearing completion, and will be issued in time to reach the county Normals. Relative to the possibility of securing the next session of the National Association, Prof. Canfield was equally hopeful. Prof. Canfield leaves for the east immediately after commencement.—Commonwealth. Last Friday morning the train from Leavenworth brought to Lawrence the Senior class of the Leavenworth High school, who had come by invitation of Dr. Lippincott to visit the University. The class was thirteen strong—all girls—and they brought joy to the hearts, and happiness to the faces of the K. S. U. boys who were fortunate enough to be on the committee of reception. After a tour of observation over the University, dinner was announced and a neat spread in Prof. Snow's room soon satisfied the wants of inner man and woman. Then the sight seeing was renewed until train time compelled a cessation, and the four thirty train took the Leavenworth girls home, after a very pleasant day—to the K. S. U. boys. May they come again and come to stay. PERSONAL. W. S. Whirlow will be here next week. E. F. Neal left for home yesterday Postlewaite is a bad man on strawberries. George Watson will be on hand to tomorrow. Barlow Lippincott has returned to Lawrence. Yeager returned Monday for examinations. Lida Griffith returned Wednesday from the East. Senator Bayard will get to Lawrence Sunday. Prof. Canfield made a flying trip to Topeka Tuesday. McLennan, of Emporia, visited the University Monday. C. B. Cramer, '79, is deputy U. S. surveyor in Colorado. W. L. Kerr expects a visit from his sister next week. Lena Yohe, of Leavenworth, is visiting her brother Al. Lizzie Hook, of Leavenworth is over for commencement.

Many of the others have not responded, but will undoubtedly be here. Miss Lida Romeg, of '84, is visiting with Bella Love. H. J. Humphrey, of '81, was at the contest last night. Miss Lillian Sherman is visiting with Miss Jean Oliver. Prof. C. Y. Root, of Holton, visited the building Thursday. Misses Thompson, Oliver and Hunsicker, will attend Vassar next year. A. J. Graham returned to his Winfield home yesterday. Bion S. Hutchings, '81, came in Wednesday to attend commencement. E. A. Gildeeister returned yesterday for commencement week. Our esteemed ex-chancellor, James Marvin, has resigned his position as superintendent of the Lawrence Indian schools. W. H. Brown has been appointed night watchman at the University. J. W. Gleed, of '79, delivers the address before the literary societies of Washburn, June 4th. John T. Harlow writes that he will be with the boys during commencement. Prof. Keck will conduct a musical institute at Muscatine, Iowa, this summer. R. J.

Rockwell is now in Kansas City with his sick mother, but expects to be here Tuesday. Mina Marvin, of '81, and Frank Prentiss, of '84, have been selected as teachers in the Lawrence schools for next year. Miss Frank Hunt came over from Leavenworth with the Senior class of the High School, and will spend commencement with her Lawrence friends. The members of the I. C. Sorosis were very pleasantly entertained at the residence of Miss Sue Miles yesterday afternoon. Prof. Carruth was evidently intended for a sign painter, judging from the ornamental work on the lecture and concert advertisements. A telegram from Angelo Scott last week announced his illness and inability to deliver the alumni address, and J. W. Gleed, alternate, will fill his place. Andrew Atchison writes that he will not probably be able to attend commencement this year. To the Courier he indulges the sentiment: "Death to fraternities—millions for freedom and light, but not one cent for college clanism." John's Livery, 166 and 168 Massachusetts St., gives students the best rates for Rigs in town. WEEKLY University Courier. PUBLISHED BY UNIVERSITY COURIER COMPANY Every Friday Morning. J.

Cutler s Petroleum Engine Print. LAWRENCE, KAS., June 1, '84; To Whom it May Concern: I am printing 1,000 copies per issue of the WEEKLY UNIVERSITY COURIER. H. A. CUTLER. A very successful college year is nearly ended. Just about a year since the Coun- er did not consolidate. The base-ball fever attacked K, S. U. late in the year, but it has been very violent for the past week. Field day promises well to-morrow. We hope next year to see preparations therefor given a little earlier attention. Pharmaceutical Department will be a great addition to the curriculum. Letters of inquiry and promised attendance are received daily. The city council Monday evening took forward steps toward grading Oread avenue. The work, from present indications, will be done this summer. The Senior class of Leavenworth last week seemed well pleased with K. S. U. We were certainly well pleased with them. We hope to be come acquainted with them next year. The Bayard banquet next Monday evening, in which two hundred of the most prominent citizens of the State will participate, promises to be the grandest affair of the kind ever given n the State. As all the officers of the ill-fated Athletic Association of last year will be here next week it would please the Courier very much to see the remainder of its business affairs satisfactorily settled. The base ball club acted on the suggestion of the COURIER and took the matter of a Field Day in hand. The contests are filled with good entries, and a pleasant day will insure the success of the day. The WEEKLY COURIER has one of the largest circulations of all our exchanges. The COURIER company publishes from 800 to 1,000 copies per issue. It consists mainly of news, and must be interesting to any one who is connected with the University. Stevens Indicator. As per communication from Senator Plumb to Regent Fitzpatrick on a military instructor, we respectfully ask the board of regents at their meeting next week to by all means pass all necessary resolutions to that end. The plan of Professors Robinson, Brownell and Canfield, in running a summer school preparatory to the University, is to be commended. Professor MacDonald's music classes until July 16th will be of advantage to all who desire to give a portion of the summer to music. . 40 . Though beginning late in the year, and with a start under difficulties very hard to mount, the University lecture course may be pronounced a success. A poor reputation is overcome, a good one established and the prospect for next year is good. The success of the course is due almost entirely to the faithful work of Proof. Carruth, who may claim the honor of having managed the first really successful University lecture course. Now: As we said before, the University of Kansas, to approximate a real University, should have a medical department. There is no medical college in Kansas. The catalogues of other institutions show three hundred students who attend medical colleges from Kansas. If a department is not added to our University, some one-horse medical college will be started near here, and the field will no longer be open. Now is the time for the medical department, if ever. We should be pleased this summer to have "Views" from our readers on a code of K. S. U, college songs for next year. This is something in which our college is sadly deficient. An assemblage of students finds itself unable to sing in concert anything. With our musical department strong as it is now, the proper spirit shown therein, K. S. U. can work up a half dozen special songs very easily. Nothing in after years will so forcebly and pleasantly call up college life as bearing one of these old college songs. Let the movement therefor begin at once. Once started it will care for itself, but some work will probably be required to "set the ball rolling." The Alumni. The alumni of the University are now numerous and powerful. From them we expect much, and are confident our expectations will be realized. By talking and working for their alma mater on all occasions they can do great good in removing the impression many people have that an eastern college is superior to a western. Our graduates are well distributed among the varied vocations of life and by the influence of their own example and success will bring credit to the University. The Alumni Association is now well organized, and active. A very large number of alumni will be with us next week. Let them talk together and then work together for the best interests of K. S. U., and great results will follow. The following letter from Senator Plumb to Regent Fitzpatrick, secretary of the board, refers to a matter which the Courier has always regarded as of very considerable importance. Military drill is badly needed by the students, and it is but right that the U. S. government do as well by K. S. U. as it has done by other schools. This move on the part of the powers that be shows that they appreciate the need of something of the kind, and hope to be able to secure the proper officer: A Drill Master. Prof. Frank A. Fitzpatrick, Leavenworth, Kis. DEAR SHE:—I have yours of the 15th. The number of officers who might be detailed has been increased to forty. Kansas already has one, and has had for some years. This is its full proportion, even with the increase, but if the board of regents of the University feel interest enough to adopt a resolution requesting the detail of an officer, I will present it to the secretary of war, and do the best I can to secure the detail. Very truly, P. B. PLUMB. The Impending Horror One of the horrors which is ever before the Senior mind is the graduating thesis. This is a relic of barbarism which has come down from antiquity without change, and which doesn't seem in any haste to join it "twin relies," slavery and polygamy, in their journey toward the grave. There is one great advantage which it possesses over other weapons. No one is injured except the man who writes it, and the English language. For who reads a graduating thesis? In olden times they were tied with dainty blue ribbon and read before a suffering audience. But modern philanthropy has done away with this. The thesis is carefully taken and consigned to oblivion and nothingness, as completely as the merchant who doesn't advertise in the Courrier. No one ever heard of a thesis being rejected, refused or read. No Senior ever failed to receive his diploma because he wrote three thousand words and said nothing, and did that in an uninteresting manner. No, the thesis is evidently made for the mere perplexing and tormenting of the weary Senior who carefully takes an old society essay or a thesis which the professor of economics or literature refused to receive, and gives it to the faculty with a sigh of relief. There is no doubt about it; the graduating thesis must go. Program for Compromise We k. We call the attention of our State exchanges to the commencement program published in this issue. Secretary Bayard will positively be here June 8th, and his address will be one of the finest ever deliver I in Kansas. Saturday evening, June 6th, Normal entertainment.

Miami University, Oxford, Ohio will be re-opened in September. The University of Washington Territory begins its career with 113 students. Randolph-Macon is the oldest Methodist college in the United States. It is estimated that Yale college brings into New Haven about a million dollars a year. The Alpha Delta Phi fraternity is reported to have initiated two Chinese students. "Can't we make your lover jealous, miss?" "Oh, yes sir, I think we can, if we pot our heads together." "That's very singular, sir," said a young laby when we kissed her. "Ah, well, we'll soon make it plural." The Rambler is a well printed, neatly gotten up semi-monthly. It is most probably the popular magazine at Illinois college. The building occupied by the Cooperative Society of Michigan University was destroyed by fire on the 21st of March. Loss, $1,500. The Academica this month has an interesting review of the academic and professional careers of its faculty. It promises a grand issue next month. The legislature of Texas has set apart a million of acres of land, in addition to that already given, for its University. It also voted $40,000 for the erection of buildings. Students at Amherst and Kenyon, who have a grade of seventy-five per cent. during the term, are released from regular examinations. Why can not K. S. U. do the same. "I see," said old lady Partington, laying down her paper, "that Mr. Barnum is going to give charity races inside his hippodromedary. I'd no idea his heart was so big." The Bethany Colleqian maintains its customary high rank among our exchanges. This month it enlightens its readers upon the "Supremacy of Truth" and the "Spirit of the Brave." Sleighing incident; stable keeper; "I'll put you in an extra buffalo." English stranger: "Couldn't you let me 'av an 'orse, you know? Er- er rather not drive a buffalo the first time, you know." The Normal News devotes a considerable space to communications. From one of them we should judge that there was a superabundance of jealousy in the breast of the Normalite, and that the removal of all traces of higher Normal training from the Michigan State University would be necessary to secure peace and good will. The News also contains a very creditable article on "Religious Principles." The Badger contains an editorial on the task of editing a college paper, setting forth several reasons. First, that the editors being almost always inexperienced, have hardly learned the secrets of their work before they are succeeded by others. Then college life is often a little varied and at times monotonous, and the events which the college paper must chronicle are commonplace. This makes the interest of the college paper largely dependent upon the manner in which its matter is presented; so skill in expression, crispness, freshness and originality in style, must be striven for, if a college paper is to be made readable and attractive. This is the reason why the editing of a college paper is no easy task." AN ADVERTISEMENT. — Advertisement is the sine qua non of success in every undertaking that requires public support. It's as true of a college as of an insurance company. But among all discussions as to the value of athletics in colleges, the fact is generally overlooked that a good base ball or foot ball team, a good boating crew or anything of the sort is a first class advertisement. The mass of the people know of the existence of about a dozen of our colleges, no more. But let the college have its name in all the newspapers in connection with athletics or a glee club, and it will be excellently advertised. The base ball club may be defeated, the glee club sing badly, but their faults will be dealt with kindly. The college may be accused of doing nothing else. But nevertheless students, and the best of students at that, will attend it. But how can they be expected to attend a college they have never heard of?

The undersigned, members of the Faculty of the State University, propose to open a Summer School of Languages. In so doing they aim to meet the wants of all those who desire instruction in advanced studies and are not able, being themselves teachers, or for other reasons, to attend our high schools or state institutions. They have specially in view those students who expect to be candidates for entrance to the University and whose preparation has been left slightly defective by the incomplete courses of their home school. They further desire particularly to bring together as many teachers as possible who are themselves engaged in teaching languages in preparatory schools, in order that they may come in contact with the methods employed in the University, and may thereby be better prepared to fit their own students for entrance to University work. The session will begin on June 22nd, and continue five weeks. A small fee will be charged. D. H. ROHNSON, W. B. BROWNELL, A. G. CANPIEL, Sec. PAT HAMLIN'S Rigs at student's prices.

A few copies of the new catalogue have arrived. The new book contains one hundred pages and is by far the finest ever issued. The most important change, is that all laboratory work will be done in the afternoon hereafter. In the M. L. course Junior German will be required, and in the classical course, Junior Greek. Quite a number of studies have been changed from five hours a week to two and three hours a week. They will be ready for distribution next week.

Last week a challenge was received by the base ball club from the Iron Clads, the Lawrence club, for a game on Decoration day. The challenge was promptly accepted, and the nine reorganized and strengthened. The game was called at four o'clock, Art Moak acting as umpire. The contest was a pretty one up to the sixth inning, when the Iron Clads had the advantage by a score of thirteen to twelve. Then our boys began to get in their work, and pounded the ball with old time vigor, and soon had a commanding lead. The score below will show the work at the bat. In the field the pitching of Yohe, catching of Davis and fly catching of Sharrard were the fine points of the K. S. U. game. Yohe took the batting honors with the only clean score made on either side, and two three base hits. For the Iron Clads, Madden, Light-cap Dillon and Green, distinguished themselves with the,stick and in the field. K. S. U. Runs . . . . . Left on bases, K. S. U., 6; Iron Clads, 9. Three base hits, Yohe (2), Dillon (2); two base hits, Sharrard, Kerr, Foster, Davis, Madden, Reynolds. Oratorical Contest. One of the finest audiences that ever assembled at the beginning of commencement, was that which favored the ten contestants in the contest in original oratorical work. Each of the ten speakers did well, reflecting cred it upon themselves as well as the K. S. U. Hon. W. A. Starrett of Chicago, Mr. Chamberlain of Seeneca, N. Y., and Rev. Obsorn of this city, acted as judges, Chancellor Lippincott presiding. W. E. Higgins of Rich Hill, Mo., on "Tolerance," was given first, and J. D. McLaren of Delphos, Kansas, on "Cardinal Richelieu's Ambition," was given second place. First prize was an encyclopedia; second was $15 in cash. On last Friday evening the Normal students were very pleasantly entertained by Dr. Williams, at his residence south of the city. There were about thirty present. The doctor entered into the spirit of the evening with an evident relish. At eleven o'clock bountiful refreshments were served, and all did justice to this part of the evening's festivities. No one could be more popular among the Normal students than the doctor, and the evening spent at his house is another tie binding them to their instructor. EDITOR VIEWS:-I have been informed that two of our secret societies intend to give banquets next week. Why can not all the societies unite next year and have one grand entertainment? The University of Wisconsin gives the fraternities the privilege of holding such a banque in its college building. --have been built in the Business Exchange, and here the students pass to and fro investing capital, renting office or store, drawing articles of co-partnership, leases, mortgages, etc., buying and selling merchandise at wholesale, retail and on commission, depositing cash, drawing checks, drafts - in fact performing in reality ALL that a man does in managing a large business. R. E. HENRY. The fraternities are strong here. They are harmonious. There is no reason why such a scheme should not succeed. SUMMER COURSE Bookkeeping TEACHERS AND STUDENTS Penmanship, AND AT THE NATIONAL BUSINESS COLLEGE. Cor. 9th and Main Sts., KANSAS CITY, - - MISSOURI. 12 Weeks, $15. FOR THE BENEFIT OF TEACHERS AND STUDENTS Who are occupied during the fall and winter months, and for all those who desire a knowledge of Bookkeeping and Penmanship, THIS SUMMER COURSE IS ESPECIALLY DESIGNED. We can only afford during the summer months, when many students from out of the city go home, to offer such thorough and practical instruction at these Reduced kates. 12 WEEKS, $15. Those who take advantage of this offer will have a rare opportunity to fit themselves for teachers and accountants. The principles of Bookkeeping are so clearly set forth, and the practice in the Actual Business Practice Department, where each student carries on a business of his own, is so accurate and real that diligence alone is necessary to gain a thorough, lasting knowledge of the terms and ways of the business world. In connection with Bookkeeping, drill is given in the most approved methods of computing Interest and Discount, and the law governing Negotiable Paper will receive particular attention. A Bank, Commercial Exchange, Merchant's Emporium, Real Estate Office, and Commission House The college currency is the cash capital of the student, and the commerce done with colleges located in Eastern and Southern cities, affords ample practice in writing business letters, telegrams, order sheets, bills, receipts, etc., etc. The books and blanks of the bank are the same in every particular as those of the best equipped National Banks, and all business, both within the bank and with its customers, is conducted upon the strict principles that govern well-regulated banking institutions. IN PENMANSHIP there will be one hour's drill each day. A plain business hand is taught. Our system of instruction invariably makes good writers of those that are not indifferent to practice. At the close of the lesson in penmanship, twenty practical words are dictated, and twice a week a lesson is given in the form and substance of a well-written business letter. These lessons, besides giving valuable knowledge, afford the excellent opportunity of constantly testing the pupil's progress in easy, rapid writing. The College is spacious, airy, well lighted and furnished. Morning session from 9 to 12. Afternoon session from 1:30 to 4. The College is open for study from 8 A.M. to 4:30 P.M. Those who desire to take advantage of this course may begin any time before the first of August, with the privilege of attending 12 weeks from day of entering for $15. TIME TO ENTER.

Work will be begun on the new building for natural history about the first of July. Just one year since the COURIER worked off some bad blood and began to get there. This commencement has been the greatest success known in the history of the University of Kansas. --- Our law department will be an excellent one next year, and Kansas students of law should attend our University. Is it any more than natural that the Courier should indulge in a comparison of its position this commencement with that of last. The druggists of the State being in Lawrence this week, what will the people of other places do who are affected with snake bites? --- Too many thanks cannot be extended Senator Plumb by our students, for his influence in securing for us our honored guest this week. Thanks to Senator Plumb. In order to be a University in the proper sense of the word, more departments should be added to our curriculum. The first and most urgent necessity is a medical department. The Courier would be pleased to hear from every student at least once during vacation. How the Summer is being spent, the doings of such other fellow students as are known of, etc. Drop a postal card occasionally. The students of K. S. U. have, in the year past, found Field & Co. very generous. They should not forget this firm this summer for such books as they may need at their homes. Returning next year, remember them. Gov. Glick and Mrs. Glick, while in the city, were the guests of Postmaster Shannon. They were among the hundreds who were deprived of an entrance to the hall to hear Mr. Bayard. At the banquet the Governor spoke in response to the toast to Kansas. Senator Bayard. The visit of Secretary Bayard to K. S. U, this week, was the greatest honor, in the eyes of the general public, ever granted her. The press of the country teems with matter on his western trip—"to deliver an address before the literary societies of the State University at Lawrence, Kansas." The premier of our glorious nation left his pressing duties at the national capital for our benefit. We are thankful. Every boy and girl should make arrangements on their return next year to furnish correspondence from the University for his county paper. The greater portion of the editors thereof would be pleased to have an occasional letter from Lawrence, and would be pleased to furnish stationary, postage, and send paper therefor. The training in writing and the great good that could be done for our grand institution thereby would be high compensation for the trouble thereof. Our Distinguished Visitors. Mr. Bayard's Address. Among our distinguished visitors of this week were Secretary of State Bayard, U. S. Senators Vest, Plumb, Ingalls; Judges of Supreme Court Horton and Valentine; ex-Governors Glick and Robinson; E. H. Funston, Judge John Martin, Gen. C. W.Blair, Mayor Neecly of Leavenworth, F. P. Baker of Topeka Commonwealth, Col. Rice of Fort Scott Monitor, Dr. Marrion Mumford of Kansas City Times, E. E. Patton. There is but one expression of opinion in relation to the great oration of Secretary Bayard before the literary societies of the University. It is that of the highest praise and warmest commendation. The impression there made will not be evanescent but permanent and enduring. It was a production worthy of a great statesman and a ripe scholar. As a literary production it has matchless merit; as a philosophical treatise it has a more than temporary value. The University, the city of Lawrence and the state of Kansas, feel profoundly grateful to Secretary Bayard for his visit and the production of an address so valuable.—Herald Tribune. The committee appointed to examine the Senior laws for admission to the bar, complain of the examination of two members thereof as being exceedingly poor, and though the Dean of the department had recommended their admission, they having passed an examination satisfactory to the department, the committee for ten days refused to recommend them. This is not right. If the law department of K. S. U. ever expects to be what it should be, it will be through the strength, and not the number of men it turns out. With a size of its classes it now has even, advantage of good thorough work, a diploma from our law department, with the backing it now has, should represent something, Work and brains should be the requirement, not time whilde away. The prizes given to the students in zoology for best collections were announced Saturday. J. D. McLaren took the prize for best collection of bugs, and W. W. Russ for the best of birds. Prof. Snow's Prizes. Doctor Marvin. Our readers as a whole will be interested in hearing that Dr. Marvin, our highly honored and respected exchancellor, has two months since tendered his resignation and requested relief from his duties as superintendent of the United States Indian School at this place. As yet, however, his successor has not been appointed, though Secretary Lamar wrote him a couple of weeks since, he would be relieved. General Inspector John Oberly visited the school last week, and was loud in his praise of its workings. He was heard to say the government was losing one of its best men in the Indian school service. It would certainly seem the doctor still insists here upon his old well known motto, excellence. The doctor says he desires a little rest, and will now only care for his private affairs, one of which is the management of a good farm in this county. Past and Prospective. Another year is now numbered in the past history of the University of Kansas. With feelings of pleasure and rejoicing we look back over the year and note the progress we have made during that time. The year has been generally devoted to hard work. Never before were markings so close and grading so exact, but the students have completed the year with as high standings as ever. The whole internal management of affairs has been harmonious and satisfactory. The legislature was good to us, and a fine new building may be credited to this year's work. All the departments have been strengthened and the facilities increased. The law department has been organized on a firm basis. A chair of Pharmacy has been established which will attract a large and higher class of students. Preparations are now being made for another general advance. This work has been accomplished by the combined efforts of regents, faculty and students. The way these have worked together has been remarkable. We have no doubt it will continue so. There is one way in which we, as students, can particularly advance the interests of our University. If we show, during vacation, to the people at home, that K. S. U. has been of benefit to us, others will come to share our advantages. Let us always be ready with a word in favor of the University when educational topics are mentioned. In other words, let us work first, last, and all the time for the advancement of the University of Kansas. We understand that Geo. B, Gaumer is an applicant for the consulship at Meriden, Yucatan. Mr. Gaumer has already won a great reputation as a naturalist, and has spent years in Yucatan studying the country and its productions. He is a perfect master of the language and customs of the people, and of the duties of the office. If appointed he would be able to do good service for the United States, and we hope the administration will conclude to bestow the office upon Mr. Gaumer. In our last issue a mistake was made in giving the result of the oratorical contest, in giving Higgins first and McLaren second. The two prizes were of equal rank, and both gentlemen took "first prize." The Bayard Escort. The committee to escort Secretary Bayard from Kansas City went down at 4:30 on Saturday. Chancellor Lippincott, J. D. McLaren, Victor Linley, Cyrus Crane and the Courier's special reporter, represented the students. Mayor Poehler, Judge Emery, Postmaster Shannon and Herald-Tribune reporter, Dean, represented the city. Soon after arrival at the Missouri Valley metropolis, by courtesies of ex-Governor Glick, the committee had the pleasure of a half hour's private talk with Bayard. He asked much about Kansas University and its prospects, and left the impression that he is a gentleman and a statesman. In the evening the citizens of Kansas City tendered him a reception and banquet. At 12:30 he went to bed in his private car, and was whirled to the Lawrence U.P. depot by a special engine. Sunday morning the student's committee escorted him in Toothaker's best conveyance to the residence of J. D. Bowersock, whose guest the Secretary of State was during his stay. Worth While. To show their recognition and appreciation of the work in modern languages, and to encourage additional effort for thoroughness in the University, Mr. B. W. Woodward and Mr. Theodore Poelher offered recently fifteen dollars each for a creditable essay in French and German respectively. To add to the value of the awards, the department secured as judges Prof. A. M. Elliot, of Johns Hopkins University, and Prof. W. H. Rosenstengle, of the University of Wisconsin, for the German - gentlemen who stand in the front ranks of instructors in their departments, in this country. Mr. Samuel Burkholder wins the prize for the French essay, and Mr. A. E. Cardy the prize for the German essay. We quote from the letters of the judges accompanying the awards. After pointing out the errors of Mr. Curdy's essay Prof. Rosenstengle concludes : "Permit me to assure the excellent man who offers the prize, that considering the short time and the comparatively unfavorable circumstances, much has been accomplished, and that instructor and student deserve recognition. And this recognition will surely aid in leading the students to pursue and cherish the German language with devotion, earnestness and faithful work." Prof. Elliott concludes, speaking of the French essay: "Taken as a whole, the work was good, showing care and good training. I congratulate the department on being able to reach so fine results in so short a time." Courier Prizes. The following awards were made for excellence in chapel rhetoricals. The grading was done by a committee from the faculty. Sophomore, first prize, Fannie Pratt; second prize, Cyrus Crane; Freshman, first prize, Maud Thrasher; second prize, T. F. Doran. Bayard was at the Baccalaureate sermon, and seemed much interested. Subscribers should see their summer addresses are in the hands of the business managers before going home. Private Secretary O'Brien and Passenger Agent Patton have the thanks of our boys for the many kindnesses shown at Bayard's private car. Come again. Toothaker handled the ribbons in fine style in the Bayard procession. The secretary remarked: "This is a fine carriage, a very good four-in-hand and excellently driven." The Baccalaureate sermon was one of the best delivered here. Rev. H. C. Garrett, of Northern Texas, eloquently proved the existence of a mediator between God and man. All of us are mediators, but Christ is the great mediator. R. G. Kimble says that if the man who stole his umbrella on Sunday night will call around he will give him the case which belongs with it. The thanks of the students are gratefully tendered to ex-Mayor Bowersock for his great hospitality to Secretary Bayard during the latter's visit here; and to Toothaker for much extra work on the grand turn-out; and to Famous and many others for kindnesses shown.

The college at this place has been in existence since 1869, and thus is well known. It is now in the best condition of its history. At Atchison, Mr. McIlravy, through the following petition signed by 60 of the best business men thereof, has established their school, giving it the same advantages as this: We, the undersigned citizens of Atchison, appreciating the high character and usefulness of the Lawrence Business College, Lawrence, Kansas, take this opportunity of requesting the proprietor, Prof. E. L. McIlravy, to establish in our midst a similar institution. Recognizing your success in Lawrence, and anticipating the many and lasting benefits to be derived from an institution of that kind in our city, do assure you of our hearty support. —Atchison Champion.

Commencement Doings OROPHILIAN-OREAD CONTEST.—The Oread-Orophilian contest on Friday evening was greeted by a crowded hall. The president of the evening, T. F. Doran, conducted the exercises in true Orophilian style. Sadie Emery's essay on "Utopia" was delivered with a rich, smooth voice, which lacked only in volume. Lillian Bell's thoughtful essay on "Social Tendencies," was distinctly spoken, with but little reference to the manuscript. Both essays were lengthy. In the debate, F. H. Olney earnestly affirmed that the negro was not qualified to vote. A. C. Markley eloquently combatbed his arguments, Agnes Wright's "Order for a Picture" was spoken with touching pathos. Maud Thrasher so talked about "Whistling in Heaven" that the audience was held spell-bound. J. E. Curry's oration on "The Genius of the Jews" vividly described that oppressed race. Victor Linley's masterly tribute to Edwin M. Stanton was the crowning effort of the evening. The instrumental music by Orrel Hig'bargin and Mabel Gore formed pleasant interludes. Lizzie Wolcott's solo was sweetly sung. Birdie Starr touchingly sang of Springtime. The Amphion Quartette received its never failing welcome, and did even better than ever. The contest was a very close one, and both societies claim the victory. FIELD DAY.—A pleasant afternoon last Saturday attracted about three hundred people, mostly students, to Bismarck grove, where the exercises of Field Day were held. They were all good, especially so, considering the time for preparation. Below is a summary of the contests, winners names printed in small caps. Long jump...HAYLETT, Watson, McBride Hardie race, 220 yds. ...McBride, Cruise, Kett Throwing weight ...WATSON, Davis, Kett 100 yard dash ...Little, Cruise Quarter mile dash ...Foster, Kett 50 yard dash ...FOSTER, McBride, Cruise Heavy weight wrestling ...Foster, Watson Light Weight wrestling ...Ketter Kett Running high jump ...McBride, Cruise Vaulting jump ...Kett, HAYLETT Throwning ball ..McBride, Foster, Davis, Kett Running long jump ..WATSON, McBride, Cruise 50 yard backward zash ..Ketter, Foster Backward jump ..SHARRAD, Kett Hop, skip and jump ..WATSON, McBride, Cruise Hand-Spring ..Ketter, SHARRAD High kick ..HAYLETT, McBride Piston shot, 100 yards ..RICHARD, Foster Judge> Prof. A.

CREW-GROVENOR CONTEST.—This contest, which takes the place of the old faculty prize contest, was a very popular morning. The speakers were all young and were there to make reputations. The program was: B. P. Blair...The March of Mind Fred Bowersock...Extract from Ingersoll Agnes Wright...A Golden Land F. G. Crowell...Woman Citizenship T. F. Doran...Idols Gertie Humnicut...Extract from Curtis Jean Oliver...Battle of Waterloo T. J. Schall...The Classics S. W. Shattuck...Charles Summer Mand Thrasher...Extract from Brown May Webster...The Orator's Power Ross Wemple...Character of Lafayette The prizes were awarded; to Mand Thrasher, the Grovenor, to T. F. Doran the Crew. The result seemed satisfactory to all. HONORS TO BAYARD.—At the request of the students Secretary Bayard consented to be shown the sights of Lawrence Monday afternoon. Toothaker very kindly offered his best velvet lined carriage and his magnificent four white horses for the purpose. The carriage and four-in hand were profusely decked with wreaths of flowers. From the residence of ex-Mayor Bowersock, the party drove to the Indian school, accompanied by Judge Emery and other Lawrence citizens, and by ex-Governor Glick and other distinguished gentlemen. In Bayard's carriage our good Kansas governor, Chas. Robinson, assisted by J. D. McLaren and Crume, did the honors to the Secretary of State. Bayard inquired much of Dr. Marvin about the Indian school. Driving past the late Dudley Haskell's residence, the secretary expressed great reverence for our Kansas protectionist. Then the party drove down Massachusetts street, under the large barrier stretched across the street with "Welcome to Bayard." Then the students took the secretary to Bismarck grove, drove around the park and had the fine Lawrence trotting horses shown to him. He is a great lover of horses, and was much delighted to seq our races. Here many students and citizens had congregated, and an informal reception was held. Senator Plumb and Chief Justice Horton joined the party and all came back through the residence part of Lawrence to our Kansas University. Chancellor Lippincott placed the party in the charge of Prof. Dyche as guide, and Bayard was shown our bugs and bears, our stones and statues. Bayard has hunted much on our Kansas prairies, and had a great talk with Dyche about hunting times. The secretary praised the view from the dome and was much impressed with our fertile soil. Coming down the hill again, the students' distinguished guest was left to take tea with his host, J. D. Bowersock Bayard said that his stay in Lawrence was a real holiday to him—a welcome relief from the greedy crowd of off-seekers and busy work at Washington. "Here," he said, "I have spent one quiet, restful Sabbath." After the address on Monday evening, the students' committee handed Bayard over to the citizens of Lawrence, who then gave him a public reception and a banquet. At the close of the reception he was driven to banqueting hall where were found 250 of the most prominent citizens of the State. After a sumptuous repast Gov. Robinson arose and in a pleasing address welcomed him to Lawreece. Mr. Bayard replied in a most happy strain, expressing himself as highly pleased with his visit to K. S. U., paying it a high compliment. He was followed by Senator Plumb, and he by Dr. Munford, of the Kansas City Times, and Gov. Glick, who in his eulogy on Kansas said of K. S. U.: "We have given our children a State University second to none in our country, and had I a child for a college course he should go through the Kansas State University." NORMAL NIGHT.—A good audience found an excellent program presented Saturday evening by the Normal society. All the performers did well and the music was particularly fine. The following was the program : At one o'clock the party adjourned, with three rousing cheers for Secretary Bayard. M. L. Furl, President of the Evening. Invocation . . . . . Dr. P. J.

Amphion Quartette CLASS DAY. — Promptly at ten o'clock on Tuesday morning the Juniors and Seniors took possession of the ornamented rostrum. W. C. Stevens directed the exercises in good shape. Rev. DeLoe offered the invocation. W. Y. Morgan delivered the salutatory in his usud happy manner. W. H. Johnson very eloquently delivered an oration on Purer Public Morality. J. V. Humphrey handed down the old class hat to the Juniors warning the world that the class of '85 was sinful and altogether wicked. His jokes were greeted with applause. Hattie Haskell received the hat for the Juniors, and her answer sparkled with wit and humor. Miss Hulet was the gipsy fortune-teller of '85, and well did she portray their future. Frank Foster's oration on Corporations was thoughtful and clear. A. E. Curdy's poem was profound, and had something of the spirit of Goethe's Faust. The valedictory by E. F. Caldwell was a mastery effort. The music by the Gillis' House Orchestra of Kansas City was grand, and the audience especially appreciated the Xylophone. The class motto was at Bayard Banquet the evening before, and showed the effects of late hours. Both classes showed both beauty and brains. Through the donor's generosity, Higgins exchanged his Field prize of Chamber's encyclopedia for a set of Monroe's bound gilt edged Shakespeare's works of Hudson's note. He won the encyclopedia two years ago on essay contest. Scene at oratorical contest, at its close; Graham: “Little, I will give you one dollar for your chances. (Little accepts). McLaren: “Graham, I will give you two dollars for your bargain.” (Graham accepts). Judges come in; McLaren gets the $15 prize; accounts balanced show Little $1 ahead, Graham $1 ahead, McLaren has $13 out of $15. Did you get a postal card; have you responded; If not, why not? "I got a postal card," One of the old time Oread dance was held in Oread hall Monday last. Despite the vigilance of the chancellor and Prof. Dyche and the daring feat of Brown in climbing up the ventilator, the students—if they might be called such—have overcome every obstacle which may have thrown itself in their path. By untiring vigilance, or by hiring of a special janitor for the purpose of preventing this especial thing, the chancellor can stop these dances; by these means only can they be stopped. Let the profs, and jailers take warning. PERSONAL. George Watson came in Saturday for the "doings." W. J. Pierson came in Monday. Fred Jones is here from Sedalia. A. J. Graham left Thursday for Winfield, his home. Ask Caldwell about his "remitance from the west." Maud Mansfield returned Thursday for summer vacation.

This position has been able filled for three years by Caroline Bauman. The following we clip from an exchange. 'Rah for Crowell: "The leading public men of the State are educating their sons at the University of Kansas. This speaks well for their good judgment and loyalty to the State. Major Crowell, the oldest mail inspector in the service, has a bright boy who appeared in the public exercises yesterday with very much credit to himself, and acquitted himself so well, that the symptoms are very apparent that he is a chip of the old block."
