Pierson's mill is now lighted by electricity.
Washington University--The School of Appropriation.
A new bailer of alcohol has been ordered for the dissecting room.
The Universalists of Junction City picnicked in Bismarck grove last week.
The imbecile asylum commenced school this week. A few vacancies still allow you to enter.
Iron pillars will be placed under the mineralogical cabinets in the new natural history building.
University catalogues are being sent to every man, woman and child in Kansas. So says Crane.
The professors are busy looking over entrance examination answers. There is a stock of papers.
The University Courier is the best college paper we ever read, and that is saying a good deal.—Junction City Republican.
We take pleasure in speaking on fourth page, this issue, of S. T. Field's inductions in the book line.
We call attention to the advertisement of J. S. Crew's book store, in this issue. Mr. Crew has "one of the best places to buy books in the city."
Orophilian hall has been renayated.
S. T. Field & Co. will hereafter number the opera tickets with the number of the entertainment instead of stamping the date on the back. Milen was No. 1. No more changing of figures. What shall we do?
The K. S. U. melon hunters had better keep their eyes open or they may secure a fellowship in K. S. P.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SEPTEMBER 4, 1885.
Governor Martin has appointed George Y. Johnson commissioner for Kansas to the North, Central and South American exposition, to be held at New Orleans, La., commencing November 10, 1885, and closing April 1, 1886.
W. R. Cone to the new Greek professor, Dr. A. M. Wilcox: "I did not expect to see so young looking a man as you, professor."
Prof. Wilcox: "Maybe you would judge me differently if I should raise my hat."
The Lawrence House, under the efficient management of Capt. Mills, will offer students special inducements on day board for the year. One of the best tables in the State is set by him. Go and see him before making arrangements elsewhere.
It is confidentially reported that D. W. C. Bower, of Delphos, will soon lead one of Lawrence's fair blondes to the matrimonial altar. Minneapolis Messenger. With a Net a Littell girl has caught him. Congratulations, Bower.
Parrish has put down a new and broad plank from the northeastern corner of the campus to the north gate. The old walk was very rotten. This is so much work done before Hallowe'en made it necessary. Some
down town folks would better take a hint.
Lawrence Herald: Miss Rudolph, the newly appointed Latin assistant at the University, is a graduate of Hiram College, Gen. Garfield's old college, and was educated under the well known president, Hinsdale. She is a fine classical scholar, and a young lady of great intellectual attainments. For the past two years she has been teaching in an academy at Cleveland, and is well fitted for her position. She will be a full assistant in Latin.
The UNIVERSITY COURIER has discovered a peculiar case of plagiarism. Washington University, a St. Louis institution of local celebrity, in its advertisement in the Kansas City Review, publishes a large cut of our Kansas University. This is about as cheeky a piece of business as we have heard of in many a day.—Lawrence Herald-Tribune. That's what we wanted to say, but as Washington University once called us "the School of Plagiarism, we believed it the soul of truth. It must be "the school of Appropriation."

LAWRENCE, KAS., Aug. 1:
To Whom it May Concern:
For the six months past the regular issue of the WEEKLY COURIER has been 1,000 copies.
H. A. CUTLER, Publisher.
Four months ago we published the above with the claim of the largest circulation of any college paper in the United States. We called for certified circulations. In this time the highest certified list we received from nearly one hundred exchanges was 900. Until further notice we will now in large type attest THE LARGEST COLLEGE JOURNAL CIRCULATION IN THE UNITED STATES.
Programs of literary societies in next issue.
Every new year we feel prouder of our University.
A State University should have a medical department.
The voice of the fraternity spiker will soon be abroad in the corridors.
The columns of the Courier are open to every student. Send us your "Views."
It isn't necessary for a new student to get a girl at once. Next session will do.
The chancellor and professors will gladly counsel any student as to his intended studies.
The Y. M. C. A. reading room and parlors, 900 Massachusetts street, are free to all, and are open at all hours. Spend your leisure time there.
The Courier has but one favor to ask of students for the coming year. Patronize only those business men of the city who patronize your college paper.
The city library is open from 10 to 12 in the morning, from 2 to 5 in the afternoon, and from 7 to 9 in the evening. Drop in and read the books and papers.
Every student should join one of the literary societies. Orophillian, Oread and the Science Club meet Friday, Sept.18, and you can judge for yourself.
The new student will either come to the U. P. depot in North Lawrence, two miles northeast of Kansas University, or to the A., T. & S. F. depot, one mile northeast of the University. STREET CARS run from both depots to the foot of Mt. Oread, near the UNIVERSITY; to the postoffice; to the city library; to the Eldridge House—the most stylish hotel—to within one block of the LAWRENCE HOUSE, the best student's hotel with reasonable rates; to the Y. M. C. A. parlors and reading room; to most of the boarding houses, and to Bismarck grove. STREET CAR FARE is five cents from the U. P. depot to the postoffice, and five cents from there, or from the A., T. & S. F.depot to Mt. Oread. The street car driver will direct passengers. Omnibus and HACK FARE from both depots is twenty-five cents to any part of the city, but fifty cents to the University.
The student goes first to the chancellor's office and shows grades from other schools. Then he is directed to certain professors for examination. A guide conducts him to the proper rooms. Here he is examined the forenoon of Thursday and Friday. His papers are graded in the afternoons.
Thursday or Friday morning the new student goes to the chancellor's room, finds the result of his examinations, and writes on a card what studies he will take the first session. Then he gets a ticket which he takes to the clerk's office, and paying $5, is given an entrance ticket to the classes. Old students go to Prof. Robinson's room and write their intended studies on a card and get a ticket to be handed to the clerk with $5, and then receives an entrance ticket.
At 9 a.m. on Friday morning, Sept. 11, all students meet in University hall for chapel services and announcements. Thence they go to their professor's rooms and are assigned lessons for Monday. Friday afternoon and Saturday all the students will go to Bismarck fair if they wish. On Monday regular lessons begin.
The city council of Lawrence meets next Monday evening. In behalf of the young men and women the State of Kansas sends here, spending $150,000 to $200,000 yearly, the COURIER respectfully asks that immediate action on Gov. Robinson's magnanimous present of Oread Avenue, giving the only decent approach to property for which the State paid so much. The relations of the students of K. S. U. and the citizens of Lawrence have been and are very pleasant, but if the people of the State knew the parsimony shown by the city in return for this generosity to her, she would receive some very uncomplimentary
At the Young Men's Christian Association rooms, 900 Massachusetts St., and at the University a list of BOARDING HOUSES and rooms is kept for the convenience of students Students can spend a LEISURE HOUR at the Y. M. C. A. free reading room or at the free city library. A STROLL of one mile west takes one to the windmill; of four miles northwest, to the "Lake;" of seven miles southeast to Blue Mound; of two miles east, to the cemetery; of three miles northeast, to Bismarck grove.
advertising. All that is now asked is the grading of an avenue which is tendered as a present, only conditional that it be placed in order within a time that is fast expiring. This offer, if not now taken advantage of, will hardly be made again. A very small amount of money will now do all that is necessary to give the University an approach such as necessity demands. The council is now closely pushed for funds, but has an amount on hand sufficient to do this work, and we shall await with expectation their action of next Monday evening.
The system of advertising the State University is very imperfect. About three hundred dollars per year is expended to this purpose in the State press and here the matter ends. "It is a State institution, and need not be advertised." We heard this expression from even the lips of a member of the board of regents within a very few years past. It is the common expression used as objectionable to advertising.
What nonsensical logic. The University is provided as an educational institution for the youth of our State. The State expends hundreds of thousands of dollars for grounds, buildings, apparatus, etc. It supports a learned faculty yearly. It does all this, but it must do nothing to get these young men and women here. These educational advantages are extended by the State, but her youth must know it—by intuition, we presume.
K. S. U. is an institution of which we as students and the people of our fair State can well be proud, but with a full consciousness of what she is doing, her work for the State, in comparison to her duty and possibilities to-day, is sad to contemplate. Who will say for one moment that four hundred or five hundred students represent the higher scholastic training of the grandest public school system maintained by any State in our Union? No one. A more specific assertion—the High Schools of our State are not represented in our records. Something is wrong. The State University should be the goal of the applicant for higher education in our State.
New students should choose their boarding houses carefully. A great deal of the character of the work done depends on the surroundings during study hours, and good rooms and good board are great advantages.
Its advantages are not known. Three out of four of the principals of the High Schools of the State are strangers to it. To fifty out of eighty of the best counties of the State its existence is enshrouded with a mist. One of the most important duties of the State after completing buildings, etc., for such an institution, is to make her advantages known to her people. It is not yet too late for K. S. U. Instead of five hundred we should have one thousand collegiate students. The proper man at $1,500 per year, with $1,000 expenses to visit the High Schools of the State, and become acquainted personally with the principals and Senior classes thereof, would accomplish magical results. Instead of $300 with the State press, $3,000 should be expended. The result would soon show for itself. Two or three times as many young men and women of the State would, at a nominal increase of expense, be given our advantages.
Three new studies are enough work for the best students, and four should only be taken when one is a back study. Better take an extra year to get through than to slight your work and thus acquire inaccurate habits.
"Where is the money to come from?" We can only answer: "It is demanded, it can certainly be squeezed out of some fund or funds."
No new student should join any one of the secret societies until he or she has been here a year or more and has had abundant time to discover the one to which he is best suited, prvised they suit him. Students often make a mistake by jumping at the first chance to join a fraternity. Don't be in a hurry. If one secret society asks you, all of them will. The boy who is asked to join and who conscientiously refuses is held in the highest esteem. Things looks different the second year.
Every student should select one of the regular courses and follow it. The regents know what you need better than you do, and you will think so in a few years.
Every freeborn American citizen comes into this world with the right to kick. Usually this is the first thing he does, and he continues the practice to the end. It is a luxury which cannot be denied any person, clasa or party. Without regard to age, occupation, race, color or previous condition of servitude, the child of liberty and the man of freedom unite in enjoying that sacred right of kicking, which is protected by the constitution of the United States, under the various titles of free speech, right of petition and freedom of the press. But as liberty will often degenerate into license, so will this inalienable right to kick often become an insupportable nuisance. The woods are full of men who think that the way to show independence and spirit is to kick against everything new proposed and against everything old sought to be retained. Our University is no exception. The genus kicker is well represented. He is in his glory at the class meeting and society. But for him all organizations would come to smash, the University degenerate, and terrible damage be done. This is his modest estimate of his own value. His fellows never appreciate him. They do not see the genius and power beaming from the countenance of the gentleman who always has the floor. They too frequently pass over his objections as too numerous and previous. Our friend is snubbed, his advice refused, his opinions neglected, but the next time he bobs up serenely and kicks his little kick in the most refreshing and innocent way. Let any one propose some scheme, advocate some measure or endorse some action, and see the powerful way in which his arguments and ideas are disposed of. But do not be disheartened or allow yourself to be excited. It is his inalienable right. And he will be just as ready to take up your thoughts if some one else opposes them. Though neither ornamental or useful, the kicker has his place. The only way to manage him is to let him kick.

Lawrence and Atchison Business College Complete Bookkeeping.
This text book is one of superior merit. It contains all the latest contracted methods and labor-saving devices for keeping accounts. While all the transactions have been prepared with special reference to simplicity and clearness in illustrating principles, business usages have been carefully observed throughout the book, making it practical and complete.
The directions are so complete and readily applied that the pupil naturally acquires a degree of confidence in himself, and an independence of action not secured by any of the old methods.
New features are rapidly introduced and are accompanied by such complete directions for their application, that the interest and zeal of the student are not only fully sustained, but constantly increased.
It contains over forty pages of engraved penmanship. This serves as a constant incentive for the student to improve his hand-writing.
Thus it will be seen that this book is, as its title indicates, "complete."
Entertainments and Lectures.
A short, interesting lecture by some prominent educator, followed by interesting literary and musical exercises, will be held the last Thursday evening of each and every month.
No pains will be spared toward making these social gatherings long to be remembered by the student in after years.
Occasionally an elocutionary entertainment of high order will be given instead of the lecture. Our object is to give the students instructive as well as enjoyable recreation.

TO THE COURIER;
One of your editors who must think he's awful smart, wrote a piece about "Girls and Parlors" in a late Courier, which makes out that the girls down here don't encourage the boys, and are prudish and all that. Now it isn't so, that's what it isn't! It's not a bit so. If it is so, it's the boy's fault, not mine—I mean not the girls'. If your editor says in last week's paper about "dress balls" is so, then we girls encourage the boys a million times more than your girls, that's what we do.
Now just for instance: A boy brought me a note from one of the young gentlemen here whom I know likes me a big lot, 'cause he walked home with me every day for a week, and carried my books and bought me a glass of soda water, and said some awfully nice things to me, that's what he did. But as I was saying, he sent me a note wanting me to go to church with him Sunday night, providing the walking was good. I said "yes" right off, cause I thought he'd have some sense, but he didn't that's what he didn't.
When we started out of the gate I said it was so nice because it was so dark, and what happened in the dark wasn't seen, and what wasn't seen never happened. Now wasn't that encouraging? But he said he was awfully sorry he hadn't brought his lantern, as there was danger of falling into the ditches. He didn't seem to understand me, and so I remarked it was awfully queer that girls who started from home dressed all in white should have broad, black bands about their waists before they got very far. He said he'd never noticed it, but presumed they put a black scarf around them to keep them warm. Couldn't take the hint, that's what he couldn't!
And that's the way he did all the time. I encouraged him all I could, that's sure, without speaking right out. Asked him what he supposed his Pa and Ma did when they were young. He answered that his father worked 'round, and his mother taught school in winter. Asked him what he thought was the reason my roommate and her beau only took one chair along when they went out on the lawn, and what do you think? He said the boy probably sat on the grass, so as to have plenty of room! I call that downright dumb, that's what I do.
When we got home I said I didn't think anyone should kiss except girls and brothers and sisters, and those that thought a great deal of one another. He said he believed so too, and never kissed anyone except his mother and his big Newfoundland dog! Wasn't that too mean for any use? I shant go with him another time, that's what I shant.
Now I never wrote for a paper before, but when I saw that piece about "Girls and Parlors" it made me real mad 'cause I knew your editor hadn't been down here and didn't know the truth. Anyhow, I'm sure he haint met any of our girls, that's what he haint.

To Whom it May Concern:
For the six months past the regular issue of the WEEKLY COURIER has been 1,000 copies.
H. A. CUTLER, Publisher.
Four months ago we published the above with the claim of the largest circulation of any college paper in the United States. We called for certified circulations. In this time the highest certified list we received from nearly one hundred exchanges was 900. Until further notice we will now in large type attest THE LARGEST COLLEGE JOURNAL CIRCULATION IN THE UNITED STATES.
Programs of literary societies in next issue.
Every new year we feel prouder of our University.
A State University should have a medical department.
The voice of the fraternity spiker will soon be abroad in the corridors.
The columns of the COURIER are open to every student. Send us your "Views."
It isn't necessary for a new student to get a girl at once. Next session will do.
The chancellor and professors will gladly counsel any student as to his intended studies.
The Y. M. C. A. reading room and parlors, 900 Massachusetts street, are free to all, and are open at all hours. Spend your leisure time there.
The Courier has but one favor to ask of students for the coming year. Patronize only those business men of the city who patronize your college paper.
The city library is open from 10 to 12 in the morning,from 2 to 5 in the afternoon,and from 7 to 9 in the evening. Drop in and read the books and papers.
Every student should join one of the literary societies. Orophillian, Oread and the Science Club meet Friday, Sept. 18, and you can judge for yourself.
The new student will either come to the U. P. depot in North Lawrence, two miles northeast of Kansas University, or to the A., T. & S. F. depot, one mile northeast of the University. STREET CARS run from both depots to the foot of Mt. Oread, near the UNIVERSITY; to the postoffice; to the city library; to the Eldridge House—the most stylish hotel—to within one block of the LAWRENCE HOUSE, the best student's hotel with reasonable rates; to the Y. M. C. A. parlors and reading room; to most of the boarding houses, and to Bismarck grove. STREET CAR FAKE is five cents from the U. P. depot to the postoffice, and five cents from there, or from the A., T. & S. F. depot to Mt. Oread. The street car driver will direct passengers. Omnibus and HACK FAKE from both depots is twenty-five cents to any part of the city, but fifty cents to the University.
The student goes first to the chancellor's office and shows grades from other schools. Then he is directed to certain professors for examination. A guide conducts him to the proper rooms. Here he is examined the forenoon of Thursday and Friday. His papers are graded in the afternoons.
Thursday or Friday morning the new student goes to the chancellor's room, finds the result of his examinations, and writes on a card what studies he will take the first session. Then he gets a ticket which he takes to the clerk's office, and paying $5, is given an entrance ticket to the classes. Old students go to Prof. Robinson's room and write their intended studies on a card and get a ticket to be handed to the clerk with $5, and then receives an entrance ticket.
At 9 a.m. on Friday morning, Sept.11, all students meet in University hall for chapel services and announcements. Thence they go to their professor's rooms and are assigned lessons for Monday. Friday afternoon and Saturday all the students will go to Bismarck fair if they wish. On Monday regular lessons begin.
At the Young Men's Christian Association rooms, 900 Massachusetts St., and at the University a list of BOARDING HOUSES and rooms is kept for the convenience of students Students can spend a LEISURE HOUR at the Y. M. C. A. free reading room or at the free city library. A STROLL of one mile west takes one to the windmill; of four miles northwest, to the "Lake;" of seven miles southeast to Blue Mound; of two miles east, to the cemetery; of three miles northeast, to Bismarck grove.
The city council of Lawrence meets next Monday evening. In behalf of the young men and women the State of Kansas sends here, spending $150,000 to $200,000 yearly, the COURIER respectfully asks that immediate action on Gov. Robinson's magnanimous present of Oread Avenue, giving the only decent approach to property for which the State paid so much. The relations of the students of K. S. U. and the citizens of Lawrence have been and are very pleasant, but if the people of the State knew the parsimony shown by the city in return for this generosity to her, she would receive some very uncomplimentary
advertising. All that is now asked is the grading of an avenue which is tendered as a present, only conditional that it be placed in order within a time that is fast expiring. This offer, if not now taken advantage of, will hardly be made again. A very small amount of money will now do all that is necessary to give the University an approach such as necessity demands. The council is now closely pushed for funds, but has an amount on hand sufficient to do this work, and we shall await with expectation their action of next Monday evening.
The system of advertising the State University is very imperfect. About three hundred dollars per year is expended to this purpose in the State press and here the matter ends. "It is a State institution, and need not be advertised." We heard this expression from even the lips of a member of the board of regents within a very few years past. It is the common expression used as objectionable to advertising.
What nonsensical logic. The University is provided as an educational institution for the youth of our State. The State expends hundreds of thousands of dollars for grounds, buildings, apparatus, etc. It supports a learned faculty yearly. It does all this, but it must do nothing to get these young men and women here. These educational advantages are extended by the State, but her youth must know it—by intuition, we presume.
K. S. U. is an institution of which we as students and the people of our fair State can well be proud, but with a full consciousness of what she is doing, her work for the State, in comparison to her duty and possibilities to-day, is sad to contemplate. Who will say for one moment that four hundred or five hundred students represent the higher scholastic training of the grandest public school system maintained by any State in our Union? No one. A more specific assertion—the High Schools of our State are not represented in our records. Something is wrong. The State University should be the goal of the applicant for higher education in our State.
Its advantages are not known. Three out of four of the principals of the High Schools of the State are strangers to it. To fifty out of eighty of the best counties of the State its existence is enshrouded with a mist. One of the most important duties of the State after completing buildings, etc., for such an institution, is to make her advantagea known to her people. It is not yet too late for K. S. U. Instead of five hundred we should have one thousand collegiate students. The proper man at $1,500 per year, with $1,000 expenses to visit the High Schools of the State, and become acquainted personally with the principals and Senior classes thereof, would accomplish magical results. Instead of $300 with the State press, $3,000 should be expended. The result would soon show for itself. Two or three times as many young men and women of the State would, at a nominal increase of expense, be given our advantages.
New students should choose their boarding houses carefully. A great deal of the character of the work done depends on the surroundings during study hours, and good rooms and good board are great advantages.
"Where is the money to come from?" We can only answer: "It is demanded, it can certainly be squeezed out of some fund or funds."
Three new studies are enough work for the best students, and four should only be taken when one is a back study. Better take an extra year to get through than to slight your work and thus acquire inaccurate habits.
--r. ; 3 r.; b. and r, $4.
No new student should join any one of the secret societies until he or she has been here a year or more and has had abundant time to discover the one to which he is best suited, prsvided they suit him. Students often make a mistake by jumping at the first chance to join a fraternity. Don't be in a hurry. If one secret society asks you, all of them will. The boy who is asked to join and who consciently refuses is held in the highest esteem. Things looks different the second year.
Every student should select one of the regular courses and follow it. The regents know what you need better than you do, and you will think so in a few years.

Every freeborn American citizen comes into this world with the right to kick. Usually this is the first thing he does, and he continues the practice to the end. It is a luxury which cannot be denied any person, clasa or party. Without regard to age, occupation, race, color or previous condition of servitude, the child of liberty and the man of freedom unite in enjoying that sacred right of kicking, which is protected by the constitution of the United States, under the various titles of free speech, right of petition and freedom of the press. But as liberty will often degenerate into license, so will this inalienable right to kick often become an insupportable nuisance. The woods are full of men who think that the way to show independence and spirit is to kick against everything new proposed and against everything old sought to be retained. Our University is no exception. The genus kicker is well represented. He is in his glory at the class meeting and society. But for him all organizations would come to smash, the University degenerate, and terrible damage be done. This is his modest estimate of his own value. His fellows never appreciate him. They do not see the genius and power beaming from the countenance of the gentleman who always has the floor. They too frequently pass over his objections as too numerous and previous. Our friend is snubbed, his advice refused, his opinions neglected, but the next time he bobs up serenely and kicks his little kick in the most refreshing and innocent way. Let any one propose some scheme, advocate some measure or endorse some action, and see the powerful way in which his arguments and ideas are disposed of. But do not be disheartened or allow yourself to be excited. It is his inalienable right. And he will be just as ready to take up your thoughts if some one else opposes them. Though neither ornamental or useful, the kicker has his place. The only way to manage him is to let him kick.

Lawrence and Atchison Business College Complete Bookkeeping.
This text book is one of superior merit. It contains all the latest contracted methods and labor-saving devices for keeping accounts. While all the transactions have been prepared with special reference to simplicity and clearness in illustrating principles, business usages have been carefully observed throughout the book, making it practical and complete.
The directions are so complete and readily applied that the pupil naturally acquires a degree of confidence in himself, and an independence of action not secured by any of the old methods.
New features are rapidly introduced and are accompanied by such complete directions for their application, that the interest and zeal of the student are not only fully sustained, but constantly increased.
It contains over forty pages of engraved penmanship. This serves as a constant incentive for the student to improve his hand-writing.
Entertainments and Lectures.
A short, interesting lecture by some prominent educator, followed by interesting literary and musical exercises, will be held the last Thursday evening of each and every month.
No pains will be spared toward making these social gatherings long to be remembered by the student in after years.
Occasionally an elecutory entertainment of high order will be given instead of the lecture. Our object is to give the students instructive as well as enjoyable recreation.

BAKER UNIVERSITY,
Baldwin City, Kas., Aug. 31, 1885.
To THE COURRIER;
One of your editors who must think he's awful smart, wrote a piece about "Girls and Parlors" in a late Courier, which makes out that the girls down here don't encourage the boys, and are prudish and all that. Now it isn't so, that's what it isn't! It's not a bit so. If it is so, it's the boy's fault, not mine—I mean not the girls'. If your editor says in last week's paper about "dress balls" is so, then we girls encourage the boys a million times more than your girls, that's what we do.
Now just for instance: A boy brought me a note from one of the young gentlemen here whom I know likes me a big lot, 'cause he walked home with me every day for a week, and carried my books and bought me a glass of soda water, and said some awfully nice things to me, that's what he did. But as I was saying, he sent me a note wanting me to go to church with him Sunday night, providing the walking was good. I said "yes" right off, cause I thought he'd have some sense, but he didn't, that's what he didn't.
When we started out of the gate I said it was so nice because it was so dark, and what happened in the dark wasn't seen, and what wasn't seen never happened. Now wasn't that encouraging? But he said he was awfully sorry he hadn't brought his lantern, as there was danger of falling into the ditches. He didn't seem to understand me, and so I remarked it was awfully queer that girls who started from home dressed all in white should have broad, black bands about their waists before they got very far. He said he'd never noticed it, but presumed they put a black scarf around them to keep them warm. Couldn't take the hint, that's what he couldn't!
And that's the way he did all the time. I encouraged him all I could, that's sure, without speaking right out. Asked him what he supposed his Pa and Ma did when they were young. He answered that his father worked 'round, and his mother taught school in winter. Asked him what he thought was the reason my roommate and her beau only took one chair along when they went out on the lawn, and what do you think? He said the boy probably sat on the grass, so as to have plenty of room! I call that downright dumb, that's what I do.
When we got home I said I didn't think anyone should kiss except girls and brothers and sisters, and those that thought a great deal of one another. He said he believed so too, and never kissed anyone except his mother and his big Newfoundland dog! Wasn't that too mean for any use? I shant go with him another time, that's what I shant.
Now I never wrote for a paper before, but when I saw that piece about "Girls and Parlors" it made me real mad 'cause I knew your editor hadn't been down here and didn't know the truth. Anyhow, I'm sure he haint met any of our girls, that's what he haint.

To Whom it May Concern:
For the six months past the regular issue of the WEEKLY COURIER has been 1,000 copies.
H. A. CUTLER, Publisher.
Four months ago we published the above with the claim of the largest circulation of any college paper in the United States. We called for certified circulations. In this time the highest certified list we received from nearly one hundred exchanges was 900. Until further notice we will now in large type attest THE TON IS THE UNITED STATES, CIRCULA-
The COURIER furnishes its subscribers forty-six issues per year for one dollar; the Review ten issues for one dollar.
The city council of Lawrence at its meeting Monday night made an appropriation for the grading of one block of the south end of Oread Avenue. For this the Courier extends thanks. The block's length will be graded by cold weather by provision.
The reading of college papers is a means of developing the taste for taking an interest in and reading the current news of the day—a very desirable matter in the education of our youth of to-day—and is to be commended. The Courier will expect the faculty to be very generous with us in the privilege of distributing to our readers in the building the coming year.
Prof. P. D. Aldrich, the new professor of vocal culture in the department of music, comes to Lawrence with the highest recommendation and endorsements from eastern musicians. At the New England conservatory, where he remained two years, he studied voice with W. H. Daniell, organ with Geo. E. Whiting, piano and composition with Dr. Louis Maas and S. A. Emery, besides spending seven months in Germany. He possesses a fine high baritone voice, which he handles with taste and skill. He brings to his work thorough preparation as a student, and ability and experience as a teacher.
Pointers for the Economical.
The bone and marrow of a University student class lies in those who have to hoe their own row. It is certainly a misfortune for a student or for a young person in any walk of life to have no appreciation of the value of money, and the difficulty of obtaining it. It is a positive curse for any student to be supplied with more money than he needs for his regular expenses. We glory in our poor students. We wish we had more of them. While many students with plenty of money do excellent work, it is rare that one of them appreciates all of it, as do those who have to earn their own means. For their benefit we print the following suggestions:
1. Some student could earn considerable by undertaking the agency for the publication of John B. Allen, of literary revolution fame. He publishes most of the standard works of all literatures at prices far below those of other houses, and at the same time offers a reasonable commission to an agent. At present he has none in Lawrence. A student could do this work without any capital, and even without a store room beyond his lodgings. Some of Alden's publications are used as text books in the University. Try it. Address, John B. Alden, 393 Pearl St., N. Y.
2. When we consider the amount of small stationery consumed by the students, and the number of times that individuals come to the lecture rooms without pencil and note book, we believe that it would pay for a student to carry on a small stationery shop somewhere on Adams street or near the University gates, supply sorts, ink, erasers, and so forth. The student could be in his place till the very beginning of the first hour, and resume it immediately at the end of last.
3. The same student, or another one, could make a good thing by undertaking the specialty of text books. Every year many are advertised for sale, and also requests posted to secure others. Not more than one-fourth of the students keep their old text books. Certainly some one could earn something by devoting himself to effecting interchanges and sales.
4. There used to be students who were not too proud to saw wood to pay their way at the University. Two of the best among our graduates walked over two hundred miles to Lawrence, and then sawed wood during the year nearly sufficient to pay their expenses. We are sure if any students are willing to do this they can find plenty of work by advertising in the Courier or the city papers. If the State is getting so rich that there are no longer any poor boys who are in danger of losing an education for lack of means, we are glad of it, but we fear this is not the case. If the poor boys think that there is "no show" for them at the University, they are mistaken. Let them come without fear of failing to find work.
5. The same may be said of general "chores." Grooming horses, milking, making fires, etc., will certainly furnish work for a few who are willing to do it, and no one who is not deserves an education. We could give a long list of rising men in this and other States who "did
chores" to pay their schooling at K. S. U.
6. Girls, too, can find employment at housekeeping on half time, in caring for the children or in sewing. We know of at least two of our best and most highly esteemed students who thus paid their way last year. To the honor of the University and of our young men, be it said that they were treated without distinction on account of their employment; and may there be more of them.
7. Two boys can get work in caring for the street lamps during the winter. The work is very wearing and noise should undertake it who have not good constitutions. The places may be already engaged.
8. The same is true of delivering the daily papers. Many of the town boys give up their places as the schools open, or as the cold weather approaches, and students can do the work as well as not. More than one good graduate has done this before now.
9. The time-honored practice of "batching" seems to have fallen into disuse, but there are many points in its favor. The boarding clubs make it less necessary, but not all students can get into these clubs, and cheap as they make living, there are many who cannot afford the amount required. Two students can occupy one room. The furniture they can bring from home or buy at a second hand store, selling it again when they leave. In this way a student can go to school a year for $125,00 as follows:
Room, $18; use of furniture,$ 4;
washing and clothing, $15; books
and contingent fee,$ 25; all else,
$23. This is living on a small margin,
but any one who wants an education earnestly enough can do it,
and will.
10. The boarding club is a beneficent institution organized by groups of students a few years since. The essential features are these: A dining room, kitchen and two bed rooms are secured in some neighborhood which can furnish lodgings for the members. A competent cook is engaged to prepare and serve the food, receiving a certain amount weekly per capita from the club. The members of the club in turn serve as purchasers of the provisions bought—at wholesale—for which the club pays pro rata. Board by this plan costs from $1.75 to$ 2.50 per week, making the total necessary expenses for the school year from $140 to$ 175. There will be several formed the coming session.
For general information as to the practical workings of the clubs, see W. S. Franklin.
I went into the Y. M. C. A. reading room the other noon to glance at the daily paper. Some fellow had it. I waited patiently fifteen minutes, but he still clung to that paper like grim death. I went over to the restaurant, ate my dinner, stopped in a store to buy some things and then went back to the reading, when Gods and little fishes! there sat that same man with the paper still in his hands, scanning the advertisements.
Autumn Musings.
Some people imagine a public reading room is built, equipped and operated for their sole benefit. They never think anybody outside of themselves cares to look at the news. I hold that a person who has the time and inclination to study the spelling and syntax of every line in the daily paper, ought to subscribe for himself or else wait till the library papers are a day or so old.
Our University is supposed to be a modern institution with modern ideas. I say it is supposed to be. Several movements of late, however, don't indicate that progressive ideas are killing any one. Professors and assistant professors for Latin and Greek have been the whole and only talk for the last three months. It might be well, just for the sake of variety, to give other departments a little notice.
* * * * *
There is the elocutionary department, for instance. The head of that department does more work for less money than any one in the school Profs. Gleed and Taylor thanked their lucky stars when they got out of it. Prof. Brownell is worked right to death, and yet they are not satisfied to let him teach elocation alone! He must also assist in the English department. As a result, elocation, the most practical, valuable study in the whole college, gets but smattering notice, while Latin and Greek have two professors apiece.
. . . .
Our University is ridden to death by societies. If just about half the organizations of the institution were killed off, the balance would get a decent support, and societies might receive due attention. One secret society and one literary society will consume every minute of leisure time a student has to spare. Yet some of the boys belong to as many as a dozen concerns that go by one name or another. They probably think it looks big. What is worse, the thing hasn't stopped yet. Somebody is yelping for a military organization!
* * * * *
Last spring I heard a great many boys talking about working during vacation—providing they could get anything to do. They didn't work—they didn't find anything to do. It is difficult for even an old hand to get a position. The people who want to employ inexperienced men, only to have them leave in three months, are few and far between. Hence so many personalis in the Courier about this and that student "loafing."
* * * * *
This talk about the big number of high schools of Kansas that are preparing for the University is buncombe. I don't believe there is a single high school in the State, outside of Leavenworth and Atchison, that will carry its pupils bright and snug up to our Freshman year. At least I am so told by one in good position to know. One thing I do know. Last year I visited a high school that pretended to fit its pupils for the University, and it wasn't, honestly, a fair intermediate department. It will be many a year before we can justly drop off our sub-Freshman course.
SMITH.
An Imperative Need.
The other night as we sat on the end of our humble couch rejuvenating a still humbler garment, which Webster calls "pantaloons," but usage has abreviated into "pants"—as we sat there vacillating between dispair and frenzy, and ramming the needle into our thumb further and further at each stitch, the thought struck us—what a fine thing it would be to have an industrial department in our University. Here we sat after a hard day's study supplemented by the arduous intellectual effort of editing a great religious college weeklytrying to do that which necessity compelled, but which our soul revolted against, even as it revolts against boarding house hash and low class grades. In vain did we seek to arrange a shingle nail so that it might cleave to the galluses on trying occasions. The only patch we had, widely dissimilar from the cloth it matched, would not quite cover the chasm which sulphuric acid carelessly left on the bottom of a chair had created. The paste which was intended for the wrappers of our dear subscriber's papers, but which had descended on the legs of our pants like mamma from Heaven, refused to succumb to amonia, soap suds or dandelion tonic. O why, why were we born! Despair often brings its own answers—so did it now. "An industrial department." O brilliant, crowning thought!
Cease your chatter about a medical department. Silence your tongue in its shouts for the hylliant. Down Spanish, Peace, Law! These are but trilies. We need a physician but seldom, and then better be without him. Infrequent are the occasions when the military is demanded, and then it usually murders the innocent. Spanish to be of service must take us into a cline of small pox and the yellow scourge. Law an art on justice, a punisher of the guilds and a foe of the knave. We want not these departments, but an industrial department. Who knoweth the hour when a button may disappear in the infinite realms of space and dissolve partnership between those garments that should be as one? Who can tell the minute when the foot of an angered sire may ascend and form a disastrous conjunction with the best tailor's art? Yea, who but the All Kowing One can say the moment when the fair girl's switch will depart from its anchorage on high, descending with its shoe string cable to the floor, bringing confusion to her cheeks and revealing an biatus in her hair? Do we not need an industrial department? Is argument necessary.
How is it at Manhattan, that paragon of industrial art? A young swain starts for a drive with his only companion. He places a portable forge and a saddler's outfit in the rig, and the girl takes along a needle, thread, buttons and cloth. As they saunter down the road he points out his fine hogs and prophesies the yield of his pumpkins and turniple. He alights and brings to love's fount a hugh delicious watermelon, a sample of his own raising. As he speeds away his horse casts a shoe. He gets out, fires his forge and replaces the shoe. As he bends over to drive homeward the last nail, his collar and other unmentionable buttons give away, and is he disconcerted? No. There stands his fair one, armed with needle and thread, prepared for such contingencies.
Kansas is a great state. She raises annually one hundred and eighty million bushels of corn, thirty million bushels of wheat, one and a half million of sheep, nineteen thousand one hundred and thirteen boys, and is safe to say about an equal number of girls. With all these varied and valuable resources, Kansas ought to -but what is the use of wasteing logic? We must have an industrial department.

There was established in Lawrence and Atchison, Kansas, colleges unlike those of Yale, Harvard, Columbia or Princeton, which devote themselves to the classics and those intellectual requirements that fit their recipient for what are termed the liberal professions, law, medicine and divinity. The colleges we refer to were founded for the purpose of imparting practical knowledge — that knowledge that would be applicable to the ordinary concerns or avocacations of life, which would enable the proficient therein to go out into the world and mingle successfully in its business activities; a knowledge which tends through energy and enterprise, coupled with unfinishing integrity, to honor and prosperity.
That the age demands practical men and women cannot be gainsaid, and such are not as a general thing, the product of the purely scientific and literary institutions we have referred to. They are produced through some instrumentality, through a medium that imparts the information and wisdom which enable their possessors to grapple with the realities of life, its practicalities and its stern business requirements. We have reference to the Lawrence and Atchison Business Colleges. The advantages are most perfect, having the most practical courses of any school in existence. The course of study comprehends a condensed knowledge of all business phenomena, and embraces almost every branch of commercial knowledge, which is necessary in order to thoroughly prepare a student for any business in which he may wish to embark. The principal studies are bookkeeping as applied to the various classes of business by both single and double entry, viz: Retail and wholesale merchandising, railroading, commission, insurance, estate and banking, commerce p law, business forms, business usages, customs, methods and mercantile correspondence, arithmetic and actual business practice.
Students are also grounded in the common branches when necessary. In every way these are colleges for imparting logical ideas of business. All education of this kind will be of advantage to every man or woman, whatever their future occupation may be; to the mechanic it will teach order, system and management, and remedy many of his deficiencies; to the professional man it will afford a clearer insight into the practical operations of business affairs, and give him facilities in obtaining practice; to farmers it will teach business habits and attention to accounts, which will give them increased interest and success.
to whom an entrance to the library would be a great boon, even if the books could only be used in the holidays.
The faculties of these business colleges are composed of the most competent and successful professors of the several branches alluded to, in addition to the able president and principals, and students are trained not merely to be accountants, but to be thorough, accomplished, cultured business men and women.—St. Louis Trade Journal.
The public library is open, to be sure, but there are many books desirable to the students in the one that cannot be found in the other, especially the German, Latin and Greek authors.
Opening the library would require an attendant or librarian, and might on that account be objected to by the regents.
Prof. Miller has always done his best to accommodate students, but under the present provisions he cannot let the library or books be used. While indexing the library this summer the professor very kindly allowed students to sit in the library and read. But if an assistant was appointed and books could be taken home, but a few hours attendance on set days would be necessary, while the advantage to those who for many reasons are obliged to remain in Lawrence, would be immense.
Although it is probably too late to accomplish so desirable an object this summer, let us hope that another year will see the noble University library thrown open to all who desire to add to their knowledge by a perusal of its volumes.
EDITOR VIEWS:- While the great majority of the students leave Lawrence immediately after commencement, a considerable number remain,

Lawrence Business College.
This popular institution was established in 1869, since which time it has prospered beyond the most sanguine expectations of its most ardent friends. It has been the aim of the faculty from the very beginning to place it on a plane far above all its contemporaries. No effort has been withheld or expense spared to accomplish the object in view. That the efforts of the management have been successful is now fully demonstrated by the prosperous condition of the college at the present time. During the past year this institution has graduated thirty-three pupils, nearly every one of whom have remunerative situations. The course of study is so graded that the elementary principles and ground work of a business education are so particularly looked after, and then step by step the pupil is led through the more intricate studies, all the while developing a knowledge of the laws of business, and thus build up by systematic training and regular stages, a genuine man of business. The text books in use by this institution are unequivocally the best, and their commercial house arithmetic is acknowledged to be the most complete and perfect arithmetic ever yet published. The college has received numerous encomiums from abroad, and has a reputation second to none in the great west. Students can enter at any time of the year and pursue their studies without any regard to the advance of those who entered before. The college is represented upon the ground in a magnificent display of specimens of penmanship and bookkeeping, ruling and other work done by students, which elicited exclamations of admiration, and won the first award, (blue ribbon) at this (the tri-State expedition held at Kansas City, Mo.) on best course of study in commercial college, best penmanship from students of commercial college, best sets of book-keeping worked up by students of commercial college, best miscellaneous penmanship by E. L. McIravy and premium on best display. It also won the first premium at the Kansas State fair, held at Topeka, and the Western National and wherever exhibited, over all competitors. Be sure and visit or address this school before going elsewhere.

H. A. CUTLER, Publisher.
Four months ago we published the above with the claim of the largest circulation of any college paper in the United States. We called for certified circulations. In this time the highest certified list we received from nearly one hundred exchanges was 900. Until further notice we will now in large type attest THE LARGEST COLLEGE JOURNAL CIRCULATION IN THE UNITED STATES.

The students want a medical school here. North College is the proper building.
The boy who spits on the floor or marks the walls should be sent home to his mother.
We should be pleased to see a little more enterprise in variety of exercises in the literary societies than common, during the coming year.
. .
Two new collegiate courses have been formed—music and art—each requiring six years, and each granting a literary degree. This is what has been needed for some time.
"Baker University" at Baldwin City, fifteen miles southeast of Lawrence on the old Santa Fe trail, a secular school, has changed its weekly day of recreation from Saturday to Monday. The youthful boys thereof will insist upon playing marbles on Sunday and neglect having lessons on Monday. Thus its change.
With grateful feeling we acknowledge the receipt of an article from Chas. F. Scott, of Iola, on the Oread Avenue matter. The city council of Lawrence are to be congratulated in that Mr. Scott did not take his Faber in hand for their benefit before they took action. We are very much inclined to give them the benefit of it yet, but as they have done their best on the Avenue, we desist.
Geo. B. Watson deserves the thanks of every student of K. S. U. For eighteen months past bills against the Athletic Association have been carried by merchants of this city, with no one to assume the responsibility of payment. Although Mr. Watson was in no way connected with the contracting of them, he last week, merely as a member of the Association, devoted time and trouble to seeing them all paid.
For months past the Courier has been urging action regarding the securing of a military instructor for the University. It is understood that the district of which Kansas is a part has its full allotment, but Senator Plumb promises personal attention and influence to the matter if desirable. The desirability is in the minds of some a question, yet we sincerely hope the board of regents will give the matter proper consideration at its next meeting.
We hope in perhaps the last issue of this month to begin the publication of such words for K. S. U. college songs as may be tendered us in this noble cause. All who have manuscript already prepared, send in at once. All not completed, please give attention and mail to us by October 1st at latest. What is wanted is merely words in any poetical meter, embodying some appropriate, inspiring theme peculiar to K. S. U. Our music professor promises to set them to appropriate music. We desire to have a few pages in the college song book world for K. S. U. in the next few years.
A landscape gardener could make the campus on Mt. Oread one of the prettiest parks in Kansas. The originally barren hill has by dint of much hard work, been covered with trees and grass. A very few drives and walks have been made. But all of this work has been done by men who were not landscape gardeners. They have laid a good foundation for artistic work. But no flowers nor shrubs ornament the grounds in spring and summer, when parents visit the University to select a school for their children. The Industrial college at Manhattan has beautiful flower gardens and greenhouses, and the Normal college at Emporia makes its campus a paradise by using these natural ornaments. The time has come when the entire time of one man should be devoted to this work. A landscape gardener has worked on the campus a few weeks the last summer, and the grounds show his professional skill. What is now needed is a small appropriation for a greenhouse and the pay of a gardener to attend it. The sale of flowers could be made to almost pay for the structure.
The botany and natural history students could find there materials for work and growing plants for experiment. The University could there get its flowers to decorate the chapel on public occasions. Prof. Snow could add rare specimens and eventually make this botanical garden the most interesting part of the museum, besides there conducting experiments needed in the botany classes. There plants and shrubs could be propagated for the grounds, and the University saved much expense. There is so much in a college course to draw a student away from nature
and physical work, that even pleasant grounds can barely save him from being a crank. Give us a greenhouse and a landscape gardener.
For College Boys.
"Endeavor to keep alive in your soul that little spark of celestial fire called conscience," was one of Benjamin Franklin's great maxims. It suits college boys.
Keep that spark alive in spite of extinguishers in the infamous spots of this municipality; keep it alive in spite of extinguishers in false faiths and crude philosophies and merely semi-Christian convictions as to religious things; keep it alive in spite of all that can be found in class pride and undergraduate giddiness to trample out the fire of devoutness in a young man's soul.
It is said that three bad men give a tone to a regiment. Six bad men will give a tone to almost any college class. With such great classes as our Universities of first rank now have, it is very common to find that number of bad men in a class. Under the subtle operation of precedents in college life, they may give a lasting taint to many a society organized in their University. A college full of undergraduates is a world in itself, but its members are not selected to match each other in moral matters. A young man who goes into college eringing and ducking, and acts like a poltroon in his first few weeks in presence of these roughshod moral misleaders, is very likely to be trampled on through his whole four years. A young man who allows himself to be ridden over by the moral roughs of a college for four years is likely to be ridden over by the moral roughs of professional life, and most especially by those of politics and commerce. He is not likely to have courage to stand erect against the huge vices of his time. It is, therefore, of the utmost consequence that a young man entering college should be taught, in the first place, manliness.
If a young man, after such a training as now usually precedes a college course, cannot stand up in college against the ordinary moral temptations of the place, against the sneers of a few dissipated classmates, against the persecutions that may be organized against him in his earlier years because of his moral attitude, then I say that such a young man is probably not worth saving for the great purpose of a courageous public life.
Young men are arranged alphabetically on the seats of the University class-rooms, and perhaps a man of high moral principle sits side by side with a moral leaper. Here is a person who is not a fruit of the tree of life so much as a husk and a pod, with the sap of youth already drawn out of him by his vices. He is a cinder already, and you may sit beside him for four years. Still, of course, you must be courteous. A hero must be a gentleman, but a gentleman may also be a gentleman, and the full height of culture is obtained only by emphasizing both parts of this word. You must do what decency requires, but you need not invite that man to your room, you need not form any social affiliations with him. You may treat him with courteous good humor here and there, possibly you may have an opportunity to say a serious word to him more than once before your
quadrennial shall end. Marvelous opportunity this is for you to rescue a brand from the burning! Unpopular language this is in Universities, you say! I have seen too many college brands burned to thin ashes, not to be willing to use this language with entire frankness face to face with the haughtiest university on earth. I am some years out of the University, and I tell young men who are now in college that ten years after they are out of it, if they will call the roll of the dissipated men that they knew in their quadrennial, they will usually find seven out of ten of them approaching early graves. I do not know one man who had the reputation of a dissipated person in my college course that now has a position of any honor in a profession. I do not know one who has the promise of such position, who in his college life, was among the wild persons in the class. JOSEPH COOK.
Autumn Musings.
Well, well! If there has been a more exciting opening week of college than this, I have missed it. Just think of it, if your thinker is yet in working shape. Everything came at once. There were the——but I must speak of them in order.
The fair was fair (original). Inasmuch as I had a pass, I ought to say it was transcendently splendid, but it wasn't. But still it was better than last year, was well worth the price of admission, (to me) and it is said, lost the management $2,000. The fair was a boon to the students, for didn't they all come to college on fair excursion tickets? Yes, the fair was a success.
One thing about the fair was a genuine surprise—the art exhibition. The pictures, comprising the original of the Century collection, were the finest ever seen in the west.
It isn't often I go to the theater, but the other day I saw a play with an otherthodon name advertised, and being editor of a religious paper, I went. Can't say much about the merits of the "Devil's Auction" as I was intent on observing the large number of students present. There were Morgan, Crane, Gilmore, McAlpine, Blair, Templin—but I really ought not to tell. I did not get to the gallery to enumerate the professors.
* * * * *
The "spiking" or "rushing" season among the fraternities is the finest ever known. Every order is in the field but one—it can wait 'til the rest are through and then get just what it wants. The enthusiasm is commendable, but I fear in some cases men or frats will be bitten—perhaps both.
Greek zeal even may overreach itself. I am told one society ringer in his canvass for men points candidates to the fact that his society has representatives in the faculty who will give them high grades and their opponents low ones. Now I know there are no fairer members in the faculty than these two frat professors, and such talk is the silliest twaddle. It is an awful mean parasite that lives on its own kind and it is at least a strange sort of fraternity man that thus dishonors his brothers in the attempt to capture gre recruit. I
hope for all concerned that the report is untrue.
I prophesied that there would be a surplus of "rooms for rent" after the rush was over, and so there is. There are a number of first-class quarters around town that can be procured cheap.
I understand one or two fellows have been rutted at my plainness of speech. Well, I don't care a whiff. I long since learned that the best paper is that which says what it thinks and says that too, in unmistakable language. Besides those who fly off at every touch are not missed much when they're gone.
Our unctuous professors returned from their arduous summer labors at the seaports and mountain resorts joyfully at the prospect of their winter's recreation in the class room. The students stand ready to give any assistance in their power.

Debate: *Resolved*, That the coinage of the present silver dollar should be stopped. Affirmative, Cyrus Crane and H. E. Riggs; negative, R. S. Horton and H. B. Martin.
Having been in charge of the Shorthand department of the Lawrence Business College during the three years past, and having endeavored by faithful, careful, and thorough instruction of my students to merit the continued confidence of those desiring instruction in Shorthand, I desire to state that it has been judged best to discontinue the "Department" and conduct it hereafter as a separate and distinct School of Shorthand under my individual charge. The method of instruction will be similar to that used in the past, except that advantage will be taken of our increased facilities and ever enlarging experience to make the Lawrence School of Shorthand the leading School of the West
Competent assistants have been employed to aid pupils in preparing exercises, etc., and pupils will find that they can obtain better facilities and instruction for their money than at any similar institution. We intend to make it worth your while to come and learn shorthand with us, and we will give you full equivalent for your money.
Facilities for learning type writing will be provided at small additional cost. W.H. HAYES,
TELEGRAPH DEPARTMENT.
In calling attention to the Lawrence Telegraph School, we desire to state that the Telegraph department of the Lawrence Business College has been discontinued, and with increased facilities and improved methods, every endeavor will be made to render the telegraph course more thoroughly practical, not only by teaching pupils to send and receive messages, etc., out especial attention will be devoted to teaching the student the details of telegraph office work, book-keeping, making out reports, etc., according to the methods in use in actual business. Almost all Western Union and railroad offices are now forbidden to accept students, and we state confidently that the facilities we offer will be found to be far superior to those in offices in general, even if they were permitted to take students. Many o the best operators in the United States learned the art in telegraph schools and it is as absurd for the opponents of telegraph schools to assert that one cannot successfully learn the ar therein, as it would be for a lawyer whose legal knowledge was mainly gained while running cerrands for some cross-road attorney, to declare the law schools are failures and their graduates incompetent.
A few months in a good telegraph school will render the pupil as proficient as years spent loafing around a telegraph office after the manner of the average "student" in a telegraph office. Men of ripe experience and broad views are universally in favor of schools for the education of students in special branches, and as a rule the only objectors are those who have been educated in the "good old way," and who look upon every student of a telegraph or other special school as a possible rival, and therefore a personal enemy.
We ask a thorough investigation of our method.
Will be of service to those desiring information in regard to Shorthand;
THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS AND AN+ SWEETS
B. F. Hutchings, Principal Address HAYES & HUTCHINGS, Lawrence, Ks
Lawrence, Kan.
SWERS
What is Shorthand writing?
Any system of writing with signs more brief and speedy than the letters employed in ordinary writing. There are many systems of Shorthand in use, and a much larger number that have proved valueless.
How many kinds of Shorthand are there?
Two—unphonetic Shorthand, which simply provides brief signs for the sounds for the twenty-six alphabetic characters; and Phonography, which provides signs for the sounds of the language and spells words according to their pronunciation. Of these Phonography is best, because it dispenses with all silent letters, and because it dispenses with all silent letters, and because the signs employed, as a rule, are simple, geometrical lines, while longhand and unphonetic shorthand are represented by compound signs—contrast the longhand $s$ with its shorthand sign " )" , $th$ with "(," $k$ with "——", or $m$ with "~."
What system do you teach?
"Standard Phonography," by Andrew J. Graham, who was already an accomplished reporter when, in 1856, he issued his Hand-Book of Standard Phonography, using the old phonographic alphabet as a basis, and adding new rules, principles, forms, contractions, word and phrase signs, and generally selecting those principles of speed and legibility which had stood the test of actual use.
What are some of the evidences that it is the standard, and the one that the wise student should adopt?
The fact that those who have learned other systems almost invariably "switch off" on the "Graham," and in order to patch out the deficiencies of the systems they have learned, thereby greatly increasing their speed and proficiency in reporting; the fact that this system is used wholly or in part by a large majority of the reporters of the United States, and that Graham's works have been adopted as text books in most commercial and other colleges; the fact that many of the distinguishing characteristics of Standard Phonography have been appropriated or imitated by rival authors; the fact that the text books of this system meet with an immense and steadily increasing sale; and the fact that a fair and honest comparison of the principles of speed, legibility, etc., of Standard Phonography, with those of other systems, will demonstrate that Standard Phonography is "the only sys tem worth the attempt to learn." I will also be found that the only "bitter" opposers of the system are those whose knowledge of Standard Phonography is too limited and superficial as a rule, to be entitled to consideration.

BURROLOSTINTHESNOWDRIFT CANON,
Col., Aug. 30, 1885.
FELLOW STUDENTS:—In compliance with an urgent request from the business managers, I shall say a few words concerning the redemption mentioned in my former letter. You will notice from the heading that we have moved camp. It's our rule never to stay in one place more than a week. It is the mention of snow drifts this time of the year astonishes you, but I tell you there are some whoppers out here. You remember Dyche told us last year about losing a burro, pack and all, in a snow drift, tail and ears only being left in sight. That was the one Brown wanted to tunnel out, but which they finally pried out with poles. Well, I could never swallow that story until we had a reenactment of the tragedy here the other day, with the exception that the ears were lost sight of, and all that was left was just the tail, which it continued to wave. But I must return to the narrative.
"After the 'bear scrape' I was strongly impressed with the necessity of doing something desperate. So I concealed myself one evening in a meadow not far from camp to await developments. I was watching the sun as it crimsoned the western horizon and cast its mellow rays upon the distant Spanish Peaks, and as those snow fields glistened and sparkled in the fiery light. I thought what a grand thing it would be for the Preps, in reducing the price of ice cream if Mr. Wiedemann only had one of those immense drifts near his candy store, when lo! a fierce animal came crouching across the meadow but a few yards in front of me. It was a tawny brown color, and I knew from what I had heard that it was a mountain lion. My hair began to raise. I wanted to run, but I could not move. The beast disappeared among some rocks, all but its tail, which it continued to wag. As it crouched waiting for its prey, I began to collect myself. I looked for my gun, and there it was safe in my hands. What should I do? The beast was within shooting distance, but only its tail in sight I could shoot that, but it would be of no avail. Just then a young buck came grazing around the ledge of rock. In an instant the oppressor sprang upon its back, and placing its paw beneath the jaw of its victim, with a quick jerk dislocated its neck, and the poor deer fell lifeless to the earth. Then uttering a horrible yell which I can not describe but shall never forget, the "survival of the fittest" buried its jaws in the throat of its victim and began sucking the warm life blood. I emptied both barrels into the animal, and when the smoke cleared away, it was jumping high in the air but it soon fell to the ground exhausted. At intervals it would raise its head, and viciously lashing its tail utter horrible shrieks. As its voice grew feebler and feebler, I felt confident it was destined soon to die. I returned to camp that it might have ample time and solitude to shuttle of the mortal coil. When we returned next morning, there in the crispy dawn, lay the dead victims side by side. We buried the venison in a snow drift and have had plenty ever
since. Unfortunately, a lack of practical knowledge in the art of flaying foiled our hope of saving the skins for Professor Dyche to mount. I shall tell you more later.
S. W. & c.
What a New Student Should Do.
Our solemn editor says:
Every new student should
Every new student should Attend school daily.
Get every lesson well.
Make a good impression on the boys.
Ditto, ditto, ditto, ditto, ditto,
ditto, girls.
Join one of the literary societies, after an examination of both.
But wait till election time, when the candidate will pay his dollar.
Join the first fraternity which asks, without regard to age, sex or previous condition of servitude. Go it blind.
Especially if he have a bid from the famous order of Beta Kappa Chi.
Attend chapel to day, as you probably will not be so rash again very soon.
Take five studies, join all the societies, the base ball club, dancing class and Y.M.C.A.
Impress the professors with a due sense of his dignity, and ability, to learn without studying.
Not go to opera or theater, but wait till the free lecture course opens before he gets a solid girl.
Be surprised at nothing, don't be bashful, act as if he owned the University and had a mortgage on the natural history building.
Attend the academy of science, take the arts of English and drawing, and send in the bill for "dictionary, five dollars," to Pa.
Show everyone that the day of his entrance was a great day for K. S. U., such as will probably never occur again—till he leaves.
Be very careful of the lazers, and the Y. M. C. A. men, and the frat spikers, and the confidence men, and the book agents, and the wheel of fortune man, the chancellor, and "Phenix."
And he will soon become a worthy student, and probably be tendered a reception in the chancellor's office.

--to the first recitations. The professors must learn his importance. Just after each meal he may be seen in the splendor of a smile and a wooden toothpick in front of the best hotel. If a new student, some innocent frat takes him in. And the "take in" is mutual. Soon after the opening of school he may select his studies. But his time is too occupied with girls, pool, cigarettes and other wretchedly "wicked" things, to allow him leisure to very often favor his classmates with the show of his recitation. He would like to wear knee breeches, but he doesn't. If he would make the attempt you could see the reason why—and that would be all you could see. So he contents himself with banging his hair and wearing a cigarette.
WANTED.—A greenhouse.

Some one is unearthing that relic of past ages—the faculty reception.

--to the first recitations. The professors must learn his importance. Just after each meal he may be seen in the splendor of a smile and a wooden toothpick in front of the best hotel. If a new student, some innocent frat takes him in. And the "take in" is mutual. Soon after the opening of school he may select his studies. But his time is too occupied with girls, pool, cigarettes and other wretchedly "wicked" things, to allow him leisure to very often favor his classmates with the show of his recitation. He would like to wear knee breeches, but he doesn't. If he would make the attempt you could see the reason why—and that would be all you could see. So he contents himself with banging his hair and wearing a cigarette.
The COURER scores another victory. It not only persuaded the city to grade Oread Avenue, but it is at last successful in its demand for better sidewalks. The city is repairing all the approaches to the University.
The wisdom of dropping the Junior Preparatory year, is shown by the fact that the collegiate classes are larger than ever before, and more students have entered the higher classes than in any previous year.

Some special students are being much annoyed by loafers in the laboratories. These idlers talk as loud as if they were in a museum. The COURSE offers a liberal reward to any student who will invent a plan to rid the laboratories of the noisy loafers.
The retiring editors realize that a year ago THE WEEKLY UNIVERSITY COURIER was an experiment. Now it is an assured fact. Then the "new departure" was attacked by powerful enemies on all sides. Now the respect and moral support of the whole University sustains the students' paper. Like all mortals, the editors have made mistakes. But we have always labored for the best interests of the University of Kansas and its students. The enthusiastic support given us has been testimonial enough that our efforts have not been in vain.
But now our work is done. We have all the glory we want. With pleasure we retire, and give the control of the Courier to those who are entirely able to raise its standard and reputation. We commend our subscribers to their mercy, and our Courier to their care. We have worked hard, and will always feel the most profound devotion to the Courier. Its prosperity will ever be our pride, its honor our joy, its advancement and promotion our glory and great aim.
The new editors bow to the great crowd of COURER readers with timidity and respect. To some of us journalism is an untried sea, but we launch our barks, hoping to bring to you rich cargoes of thought and news. Those of us who are old sailors will risk many new ventures, and share with you the golden returns. The paper will continue to be the same old COURER—newsy and spicy, fearless and enterprising. All right-doing shall be praised, and all wrong-doing keenly censured. High and low shall alike be reported to the college world. As in the past, so now, the COURER battles for fair play to all students and representation for all factions.
Prof. Nichols received the first of the week a very fine experimental organ with complete set of pipes and bellows, a set of Helmholtz resonaters, and double siren. These instruments have just been received from Paris, France, at a cost of $400, and were manufactured by Koenig especially for the U. of K. A telescope ordered last sping from Clarke's is daily expected, and a number of new apparatuses are on the way from Europe. Our University may well be proud of her natural philosophy department, and is to be congratulated on the possession of a professor who is so devoted to his work.
It isn't hard to make a dude. Almost any one with a little time to waste can do it. And the college dude is no exception. We have them just as regularly as we have our profs, and new secret societies. The species is neither new to science nor have we the only specimens in existence. In our University, with its go-ahead, work-hard students, his presence would seem unnecessary. Not so. A great topic for conversation would be gone, the local editor would have to retire in despair to the subject of fine mustaches, and new evidence would be necessary to support the theory of evolution.
The first of the year is the great season for the production of the college dude. The end finds his glory among the things that were of earth but are of hope. He never goes
He doesn't care anything for the boys. The girls—the "deah creatures"—he knows must be gone on his appearance, but they don't go to any great extent. He isn't man enough for a beau, and wont quite suit the purpose of a walking stick. The faculty doesn't appreciate him, and the receptions the chancellor tenders him at intervals are not all that they might be. He continues his course until either he is requested to resign, or some brain-producing element has introduced a new material underneath his hat, and he sees the errors of his ways long enough to recognize that he is attending college for some other object than to be a subject for the funny men to grow humorous over.
Considering the dark hour in which the students took hold of this paper, they have "brought order out of chaos," and have made the Courier the most popular college publication in the United States. It is known wherever it goes—north, south, east and west. No one doubts that it had a great deal of influence in securing the $50,000 appropriation from the legislature last winter. The subscribers last year all seemed satisfied. Besides the forty issues promised at the beginning of last year, there were given to each subscriber midsummer issues every two weeks, something which few if any other college journals have as yet done. During the hot days of last summer when one was hard at work and wishing he was back to school, the Courier would creep silently to his home like an old friend, and was always welcome, for it almost shortened the time one had to wait till school opened. The outlook at present is better than it was last year, and we prophesy for ourselves success. The business men have promised to stand by us, and we see nothing to hinder us from having a good year.

Prof. McDonald has been at work organizing a select society for the study of musical topics.

If my proof reader don't pay closer attention to my copy, I'm going to maul him to death with a cabbage stalk. Some time ago I had occasion to talk of a military department, and bless my soul! the typo made it "hillary department," and in it went. Last week I wrote, "This is the fiercest spiking season ever known among fraternities," and yet the print said it was the "finest season." I can make allowance for the intelligent compositor, but I'm not going to be bull-dozed by the proof reader. In the words of Judge Usher, "I'm hot!"
Now that Morgan is no longer on the Courier staff, I want to say a good word in his favor—something he would never let me do when he was here to prevent it. It is safe to say there was never a brighter, more popular boy in K. S. U. No single student ever did more for the University. No one had more friends or fewer enemies in our college. The Courier, conceded to be the best college weekly published, was recognized as his handiwork and his brain-work. Yet during his entire connection with this paper his name never appeared in its columns if he knew it, and time after time has he cut out paragraphs written in his favor. Moreover, I know he will be mad at me for thus praising him; but I take advantage of his absence to say what every student will most heartily emphasize.
* * * * *
Because Morgan is off the staff,
does not signify that he will cease to
say his bright things through the COURRIER columns. That would be
impossible. The truth is, the COURRIER continues in the hands of those
who started it, and have made it all it is. Long live the COURRIER!

Why is it that if a brunette a few shades darker than a mulatto gets married, the papers persist in the statement. "one of the fairest daughters of this city was led to the altar," etc. I like to read articles where some meaning attaches to the words.

Here two weeks of school have passed, and there are some students whose study has amounted to the big sum of nothing They have not yet learned that the principal object in coming here was to gain knowledge—not to run elections and bamboozle green Freshmen.
Just how far it is decorous for young ladies to make advances in their efforts to recruit members for their favorite gents' fraternities is a debatable question. It is at least a question worth considering by some who have not considered it.
It seems to me that our University catalogue is burdened with a lot of rotten matter that might be advantageously left out. For instance, there's the statement that "every student should seek plain, nutritious food, well prepared, served at regular intervals, and never taken in haste or in the presence of books." Good heavens! who don't know that? Does the faculty suppose that students are in search of sole-leather beefsteak, and have to be cautioned about getting victuals they can digest? Does the worthy board of regents imagine that
Another nuisance in the catalog is the list of text books given. I member when about to enter the University, I wanted to buy my te books beforehand in order to review I went to consult the catalogue list but could not for the life of me ma head or tail of it. The text book are mixed up promiscuously with reference books, or as is often the case not given at all. I protest again filling the catalogue up in this trivial way. Let it be so arranged that students can make some use of it.
I am told that the dudes of the University and the dudes' friends are very irate because sensible student laugh at them. The dudes say that they have a right to dress as the please, and will continue to exercise that privilege. That's true enough. They have a right, I suppose, to dress like John Chinaman or a Modo hian, just so long as they keep with the legal bounds of decency. I may add that while idiots should be an object of charity rather than merriment people will insist on laughing. The have the right, you know.
Looking over the new comers at the University, I must say there is an unusually large number of bright faces. This may be due in some measure to lopping off the preparatory department, but I also charge it to the growing reputation of our University. A class of fellows who have been attending eastern institutions are now coming here. On the other hand, our rags and ends are going to Baker—mean to other colleges.

Courier Election.
Pursuant to notice, the stockholders of THE WEEKLY UNIVERSITY COURIER Company met in Prof. J. I. Canfield's room on Friday, Sept. 11. The president of the company called the meeting to order. A report from one of the business managers was read by the secretary. The roll was called. The president declared certain stockholders illegal, his decision was appealed from and he was not sustained. The president then led the meeting, but did not adjourn it. He called on his friends to follow him out of the meeting; not a person diso. All remained, and unanimously elected Harry Smith temporary president. The following officers were then elected by unanimous vote: B. L. Ackley, president; Frank T. Oakley, secretary; W. L. Kerr and J. D. McLaren, business managers; W. R. Cone, Ella Ropes, E. A. Wheeler, Harry Smith, Chas. L. Smith, W. T. Reed, Julia Powell and Lauren Lyon were elected editors. The constitution was then amended, as will be seen in another column. The meeting then adjourned without date.

5. The net profits shall be paid to the business managers.
6. Roberts' Rules of Order shall be authority on all points of order not herein specified.
An ideal class in the Kansas University organizes in the S. P. year, has a dance in the Freshman, lies dormant in the Sophomore and squabbles for office in the Junior and Senior years.
In most eastern colleges they have their cane rushes, their class base ball and foot ball clubs, their numerous class parties and all things which tend to make one loyal to his class.
We are told that this spirit once existed to a certain extent in this University. What is the reason it can not be revived? Some one has hinted that at the next meeting of '87 the question of wearing mortar boards will come up. Fortune favor you, '87, and may each class follow in its turn, the example set by you. So let each one wake up, stir around and see if we can't get some life into our school. Let us get out of this stupor we have fallen into during the last three or four years
Revised Sept. 19, 1885.

F. T. OAKLEY,
One thing the University lacks, is a slogan, and surely we western fellows, with our cow-boy lungs, ought to be able to get up something in this line. This, together with the songs suggested in the late issue of the Courier, would tend to bring the students together more, and instead of a howling mob we would have a happy and jolly crowd at all gatherings of the students. When we celebrated the $50,-000 appropriation last spring we sung such old worn out things as "John Brown's Body," "Marching Through Georgia," "Roll, Jordan, Roll," and others that have been buried and resurrected a half dozen times.
See advertisement of J. L. Berkey
Secretary.
Can we not get up something new, something original? Let one one think up a good slogan, compose an easy song or two to some popular air, and the next time we come together we can adopt them as property of the K. S. U. We have had lots of exercise this summer, and ought to be able to make some noise. Who'll speak first?
EDITOR VIEWS:—A short editorial in the University Review, on account of its unfairness, calls for some open expression of the censure it will doubtless receive from those who read it with any care. K. S. U. is a coeducational institution, and has a faculty of twenty-four professors and assistants. Out of this state of things show a spirit of favoritism? Is it strange, since one-half the students are young women, that it seems proper to have one woman among the instructors, and would it not be well to remember before calling too loudly for justice, that women were not allowed to compete for the other positions? Finally, is this not a most discourteous welcome to the lady chosen to fill the place, and is not such discourtesy entirely new in University history?

Oread opened the year with a good meeting last Friday. P. J. Fritz gave a rather lengthy oration on Washington. Gertrude Hennicut rendered her declamation in a very pleasing manner. Sadie Emery's declamation was also excellent. The special feature of the day was the debate. It was participated in by Prof. Carruth, E. C. Little, P. C. Young, Hutchings, Jenks, Riggs, Crane and Davis. The question was: Resolved, That the coinage of the present silver dollar should be stopped. Under the election of officers S. T. Gilmore was elected president, Harry Smith vice president, Hattie Dunn secretary and H. E. Riggs critic. Mr. Jenks favored the society with an excellent vocal solo. Everything is now in good running order, and Oread looks forward to a year of peace and hard work.

The Oreads will let a number of music students use their piano this year, and thus realize something that will help to pay the piano debt.
Professor Wilcox is giving great satisfaction to his classes. He is very thorough and very careful in his methods. We hope to see some fine Greek specialists turned out under his instruction.
Messrs. (Ack and Oak)ley represent themselves as president and secretary respectively (not respectably however) of the COURIER Company. Beware of imposters. J. Sullivan is the only legal president.
The class of '87 once so famed for the beauty of its ladies, has but five of these charming creatures left in its ranks. But their beauty is lustrous as of old and their grace and wit no less pleasing.
New lady student: "Oh, I think these girls' clubs are so nice. I guess that I will have to join one. But then you know if I don't like it I can go out again just like the other girls did." Alas! too true, too true.
It is said on good authority that Miss Franc Johnson, a quondam belle in K. S. U., is shortly to be united in the holy bonds of wedlock. Report says, however, that Morgan is not the lucky man. Sorry for Morgan, congratulations to the successful man.
Riggs again holds the position of critic in Oread. This makes the eleventh time, and there are some rumors afloat that Riggs is trying to monopolize things. But we are satisfied that no one can fill the office more satisfactorily than Harry.

Professor Nichols announces that there will be an eclipse of the moon next Thursday night from 12:30 until 5 o'clock. This affords an excellent opportunity for star and moon gazers. Wonder if Gilmore will be on hand?

We have Jenks, Blair and Higgins. Name another man for first bass, and we will have another quartette as good as the old Amphibion. THE COURTOR hopes to see such a quartette organized as soon as possible, for student entertainments should have student music.
Prof. MacDonald, the enterprising young Dean of the Musical Department, took the faculty out on a big bus(t) last Saturday. Everything passed off pleasantly and tamely. No undue bilarity characterized the actions of this dignified body. We are glad that the faculty set so good an example and returned before nine o'clock.
The faculty have requested the Oreads to allow Prof. Brownell the use of their room. In return they agree to have the janitor's work done. Prof. Brownell ought surely to have some place beside the chapel, where he is eternally and forever interrupted.
Fraternity Rule Must Be Broken.
We are glad to see that there is one man self-sacrificing enough to offer his services to the much talked of military company. Because we realize that it is exceedingly difficult to find any one who is willing to take the captaincy of such a company, or in fact any office whatever. Then again U. S. military drillmasters are very deficient in their knowledge, and the military instructor of Mrs. Monroe's Academy could give them much valuable assistance.
SOL SMITH RUSSELL COMING.
Mr. March, our local manager, has perfected arrangements for the appearance in this city of the famous comedian, Sol Smith Russell and his great comedy company. The new comedy drama, "Felix McKusick," will be given, and a rich treat is in store for our fun-loving citizens. The plot is intensely interesting, and the play, which is in three acts, is full of strong situations and picturesque groupings, a car load of properties and magnificent and costly wardrobes are worn by the ladies. Monday, September 28, is the day fixed.
OREAD.—The first meeting of the Oread Society was well attended, and was in every way very successful.
The debate on the Silver question was very animated. Messrs Little, Young and Davis made rousing speeches.
Excellent music was furnished by Messrs. Leipman, Jenks and Nickel; declamations were given by Sadie Emery and Gertrude Hunnicutt; oration by T. S. Fritz; essay, T. J. Schall.
The following officers were elected:
President, S. T. Gilmore; Vice President, H. A. Smith; Secretary, Hattie Dunn; Critic, Harry E. Riggs.
Annual officers were also elected as follows: Treasurer, G. W. Harrington; Financial Secretary, L. A. Sharrard; Executive Committee, W. S. Jenks, Agnes Lowe, F. C. Keys.
A number of names were proposed for membership.
A "CONFIDING HEART." How is this Glen?
"Another trusting, confiding heart has been caught out in the rain without an umbrella and a pair of gum over-shoes. A dapper young man from Kansas State University, high up in the council of the most potent, grave and reverend Phi Gamma Delta fraternity, come all the way to Lincoln to establish a chapter in our very midst. Poor fellow! He failed to discover that the energetic and enthusiastic correspondence he had been conducting with the chief fiends of our barbarian Gehenna was only intended to lure on to destruction. Ah! the agony of that moment when he felt the axe descending with the well known dull sickening thud! The moral of this gloomy episode in our jovial college life is as follows: 'Do not be too fresh or you may be salted down.' The Drifter confesses to being 'one of those naughty frats, you know.' That is why such breaks cause his soul to well up in transport of sadness."—Hesperian Student.

A STATEMENT.
SOME FACTS CONCERNING THE COURIER AND ITS TREACHEROUS FRIENDS.
With this issue of THE COURIER there are several changes in the management, and as various stories have been circulated by irresponsible parties claiming to represent the Courier Company, I deem it advisable as president, to give a true and correct statement of the facts.
In the fall of 1854 several parties representing the disaffected faction in the compromise between the Courier and Review Companies, by which the two were consolidated, came to me and requested that I take the business management of the new weekly paper they were about to start. I was loath to accept the position, but after investigating the matter I came to the conclusion that there was an opening for a weekly paper to be run in the interest of the non-fraternity element of the University, but as the parties who seemed to be urging the enterprise were all members of secret orders, I naturally hesitated in embarking in such an enterprise with that kind of support, and so expressed myself. To this the gentlemen interested all answered that they were perfectly willing to identify themselves with a paper representing any views on the fraternity question, providing they could have a large share in its management, and in proof of their good faith gave me the following statement, the original of which I have with the autograph signatures attached:
LAWRENCE. Ks., Oct. 4. '84.
JOHN SULLIVAN, Esq.—Whereas, you have been elected to the position of business manager of the WEEKLY UNIVERSITY COURIER, knowing your delicate position in regard to accepting, and appreciating the ability, energy and experience which you would bring into the enterprise if you associated yourself therewith; and as we are heartily interested in the success of said journal, and believe your aid would be a great assurance for the prosperous outcome of what is still somewhat of a venture, we do by this formally promise you, if you accept the position, our cordial, earnest, steady and lasting support, our warmest thanks and our assurance that we will not forget the favor conferred, and obligation bestowed, in thus uniting with us to carry on the work.
(Signed)

After receiving this and the solemn promise of these gentlemen that the paper should be a strict non-fraternity journal, I accepted the positions of business manager and president of the company.
The severe war wager against THE COURIER by a strong and well-directed opposition at the commencement of last year, will be remembered by all who were students at that time. Business men were doubtful about advertising, and the circulation of the weekly News tree, cut off any considerable income from subscriptions, resulting in THE COURIER losing money for several issues. Although these gentlemen had been so lavish in their promises of assistance, not one of them came up and offered to advance any money and rather than see the enterprise fail, I paid the bills out of my own pocket until I was out $150 of my own money. But as we showed an evident intention and ability to stay, the opposition gradually eased up, and by dint of hard work a paying advertising patronage was obtained, and the News dropping out of the field, money began to come in on subscriptions, and at last THE COURIER began to pay expenses and a little more.
This was the state of affairs at the close of last year. The course of the paper had been non-fraternity outside of the advertising given their fraternity by the gentlemen who signed the agreement above. And the merits of the publication were, to say the least, more than above the average. These gentlemen of the statement were long and loud, and I must say nauseating at times, in their praise of the management to my face, and as far as I knew then, behind my back. They assured me that it was their desire that I should hold the same positions for this coming year as the one past, or should name my successor, and also that they still desired and were anxious that the paper should be non fraternity. Having no reason to believe that they were otherwise than reliable, I got out several issues during the summer, and made all preparation for the coming year.
When the University opened this year, and these gentlemen returned, they still held out the inference that the proposition made at the close of last year, that the paper should be non-fraternity, was still to be carried out, and every preparation was made for the annual meeting with this in view. About fifteen minutes before one o'clock on last Friday afternoon, the time for which the meeting was called, J. D. McLaren and H. A. Smith came to me and stated in substance that they wanted THE COURIER to be run as a fraternity paper for the coming year, that all their statements to the contrary, before this time, had been false, and with the intention of deceiving me, as they were afraid I would object and oppose their intentions. I stated to them that I would never consent, and that I was certain the stockholders of the company would sustain me in my objection. Mr. McLaren, who was a candidate for the position of business manager with me, then said that the staff was not large enough to hold both of us, and that I would have to go. I laughed at what I considered his impudence, and went into the meeting with full confidence that the
former non-fraternity policy of the paper would be sustained, knowing that, notwithstanding the fact that he and his friends had promised everything, but very few had purchased stock, leaving that almost entirely to the "barb," or non-fraternity element. But to my surprise I found the entire Phil Gamma Delta fraternity with their friends in the meeting, claiming to hold stock. Being president of the company, I knew that no stock had been legally issued to these parties, as it would require my signature, and that I had not given. The secretary claimed that the list had been handed to him by one of their number, but said that no money had been turned over for the stock claimed to have been sold. These votes were promptly challenged, and a demand made that they exhibit in meeting the certificates of stock, which they refused to do, but commenced a systematic attempt to break up the meeting or to force the officers to count the illegal votes. Several attempts were made to proceed, but this element turning itself into a mob, made so much disturbance that it was impossible, and at last seeing that it was utterly useless to attempt to transact any business, I and legal stockholders left the meeting. Of course whatever action was taken by the body that was left, would have no more binding effect than of any other body of students in no way connected with THE COURIER.
They claimed to hold certificates of stock, signed by me, but refused to show them. I as acting treasurer of the company, never received any money from them for shares of stock, and of course never issued them stock. I have not seen such shares, and if they have such they were secured by fraud. I last spring signed a number of shares in blank, which disappeared. If those have been filled in it is simply a fraud.
As these gentlemen had succeeded in breaking up the meeting, I, as president, issued another call for a meeting at one o'clock Monday, September 21. Out of fifty-nine legal stockholders fifty-three were present at this meeting, including several of the gentlemen who had been in the meeting last Friday, and who, it is reported, were elected to positions by the persons who had broken up and driven out the legal stockholders and rightful officers. The result of the deliberations of the meeting last Monday was the staff published above. THE COURIER, despite the attempt of treachery friends, will still continue to be published, supporting and advocating equal rights for all—fraternity and non-fraternity students alike. If ever there was need in the University of Kansas of some one to support the interest of the "barb" element it is now, when one fraternity has the unmitigated gall and check to attempt to gobble up all the important positions in school as has been the case with the Phi Gamma Delta. Claiming and receiving recognition from the Review, taking all the important positions in the University base ball club, taking, or attempting to take, all the honorable positions in Oread Literary Society, and lastly, by fraud and treachery, attempting to obtain control of THE COURIER, the only exponent of equal rights and equal honor to fraternity and "barb" in the University, these honorable gentlemen's insolence knows no bounds.
In conclusion I desire to say that so long as I am a student in the University, I shall attempt in my
feeble way to maintain the fight began a year ago against this kind of usurpation, let it come from whatever source it may, and the friends who have been engaged with me in this work can be assured that no amount of treachery, abuse or persecution can drive me from my purpose. I deemed it necessary to make these statements to explain the abuse and misrepresentations that have been indulged in by these gentlemen, and hope they will be satisfactory to all, and trusting in the love of fair play and honorable dealing that characterize all true ladies and gentlemen, I desire to inform the former patrons of The Courier that the paper will be run as heretofore, and to ask for a continuance of the generous treatment received at your hands.

Fraternity Rule Must Be Broken
the hour at which the "Autumn Musings" were handed in for our last issue, the managing editor neglected to examine them carefully. Hence the fact that the Courier published a "report" which was an insult to a fraternity than which there is none more honorable in our school. We now take this first opportunity to state that our quondam correspondent is not now, nor has he been for some time, in any way connected with the University. Furthermore that his own common sense taught him, if indeed he was "told," which we very much doubt, that such a "report" was untrue, and that in giving it to the public he was spreading a falsehood, that he knew full well that the members of that fraternity would be the last to stoop to so despicable a trick.
Fraternity Rule SHALL Be Broken.
Truth crushed to earth shall rise again.

The library through Prof. Miller's good work this summer is in good condition.
Subservient to no fraternity, controlled and controllable by no combination, the Courier raises its banner and marches on with irresistible sweep.
New students should join one of the literary societies at the earliest opportunity. They afford the best means for becoming acquainted with fellow students to be found in school.
The management of THE COURIER report the cost of its publication last year to have been nearly $1,200. Almost double the cost of any publication ever before sustained in K. S. U.

We understand Hon. Milton W.
Reynolds has an excellent lecture
on "Aaron Burr" which we should
be pleased to see enlisted in the
course course of K. S. U. this year.
It would well pay every paper in Kansas to send their publications to the University library, where they are filed and read by young men and women, who, in a very few years, will wield a great influence in the State.
We are pleased to see a great many students have followed THE COUrier's suggestion, as to writing for their home county papers during the year. We will publish a list of such correspondents in the near future. Make yourselves known to us.
Correspondents in airing their views will often abuse the courtesies extended them. The best a paper con do in such cases is to correct false matter so published as well as possible. Owing to the lateness of

Bids are being received by the city for the grading of what THE COURIER will henceforth call Robinson Avenue, and soon one block north from north gate will present a beautiful appearance. THE COURIER predicts that in time the most valuable residence property in the city of Lawrence will face this avenue. We understand Governor Robinson proposes to line it with trees this fall if the grading is done before cold weather sets in. Governor Robinson has ever been one of K. S. U.'s most loyal and generous friends, and deserves the warmest regards of every student who enters her walls.
The need of a medical school in the State is recognized by all except those of the most narrow views. A state should educate its youth and fit them for all honorable walks of life. A good medical school will bring the young men of surrounding States to us for their education, and thus men of learning and influence in our neighbors will have a warm and kindly interest in our own State, for no man can but feel friendly toward the State that educates him. Kansas has here a building that will fill well the wants of a medical school. Let us by all means have it, and have it soon.
The State of Kansas must have a medical institute, and with Lawrence the educational center, she is with the incomparable advantages she can offer, the proper place for its location. The Pharmacy Department, established this year on such a promising basis, makes K. S. U. especially its desirable location. The tuition paid by students from Kansas in eastern medical schools, would many times cover the extra cost of a school in connection with the University. The State press is agitating the matter quite well, and we hope the good work may go on till the glorious end is accomplished.

Lawrence Aitchison Business Colleges.
Two Honored Educational Institutions.
There was established in Lawrence and Atchison, Kansas, Colleges, unlike those of Yale, Harvard, Columbia or Princeton, which devote themselves to the classics and those intellectual acquirements that fit their recipient for what are termed the liberal professions, law, medicine and divinity. The colleges we refer to were founded for the purpose of imparting practical knowledge—that knowledge that would be applicable to the ordinary concerns or avocations of life, which would enable the proficient therein to go out into the world and mingle successfully in its business activities; a knowledge which tends, through energy and enterprise, coupled with unfinching integrity, to honor and prosperity.
That the age demands practical men and women cannot be gained, a
and such are not, as a general thing, the product of the purely scientific and literary institutions we have referred to. They are produced through some instrumentality—through a medium that imparts the information and wisdom which enable their possessors to grapple with the realities of life, its practicalities and its stern business requirements. We have reference to the Lawrence and Atchison Business Colleges. The advantages are most perfect, having the most practical courses of any school in existence. The course of study comprehends a condensed knowledge of all business phenomena, and embraces almost every branch of commercial knowledge, which is necessary in order to thoroughly prepare a student for any business in which he may wish to embark. The principal studies are Bookkeeping as applied to the various classes of business by both single and double entry, viz; Retail and Wholesale Merchandising Railroading, Commission, Insurance, Real Estate and Banking; Commercial Law, Business Forms, Business Usages, Customs, Methods and Mercantile Correspondence, Arithmetic and Actual Business Practice
Students are also grounded in the common branches when necessary. In every way these are colleges for imparting logical ideas of business. All education of this kind will be of advantage to every man and woman, whatever their future occupation may be; to the mechanic it will teach order, system and management, and remedy many of his deficiencies; to the professional man it will afford a clearer insight into the practical operations of business affairs, and give him facilities in obtaining practice; to farmers it will teach business habits and attention to accounts, which will give them increased interest and success.
The faculties of these Business Colleges are composed of the most competent and successful professors of the several branches alluded to, in addition to the able president and principles; and students are trained, not merely to be accountants, but to be thorough, accomplished, cultured business men and women.—St. Louis Trade Journal.
This popular institution was established in 1869, since which time it has prospered beyond the most sanguine expectations of its most ardent friends. It has been the aim of the faculty from the very beginning to place it upon a plane far above all its contemporaries. No efforts have been withheld nor expenses spared to accomplish the object in view. That the efforts of the management have been successful is now fully demonstrated by the prosperous condition of the college up to the present time. During the past year this institution has graduated thirty-three pupils, nearly every one of whom have obtained remunerative situations. The course of study is so graded that the elementary principles and ground work of a business education are so particularly looked after, and then step by step the pupil is led through the most intricate studies, all the while developing a knowledge of the laws of business, and thus build up by systematic and regular stages, a genuine man of business. The text-books in use by this institution are unequivocally
From the Kansas City Journal, September 20, 1883;
the best, and their commercial-hon arithmetic is acknowledged to be the most complete and perfect arithmetic ever yet published. The college has received numerous encomiums from abroad, and has a reputation second to none in the great West. Students can enter at any time of the year and pursue their studies without any regard to the advance of those who entered before. The college is represented upon the ground in a magnificent display of specimens of penmanship and book-keeping, ruling, and other work done by students, which elicited exclamations of admiration and won the first award (blue ribbon) at this (The Tri-State Exposition held at Kansas City, Mo.), on best course of study in Commercial College, best penmanship from students of Commercial College, best sets of Book-keeping worked up by students of Commercial College, best Miscellaneous Penmanship by E. L. McIravy and premium on best display. It also won the first premium at the Kansas State Fair, held at Topeka and the Western National, and wherever exhibited, over all competitors. Be sure and visit or ad dress this school before going else where.
The Kansas City Times of September 17, 1885, says in its report of the Inter-State Fair: "These institutions are represented by a large display covering twenty feet square of space in the west end of the main hall, forming the most elegant display that was ever made here by any educational institution, and was honored by the blue ribbon. The blue ribbon was also awarded these colleges for best course of study in commercial colleges, best miscellaneous penmanship, best penmanship and sets of books executed by students of commercial colleges, etc., at this, the Kansas City Inter State Exposition, Kansas City State Fair, Western National '83, also at the Illinois State Fair for best pen work. These institutions are well equipped, elegantly furnished and under superior management, with a full corps of experienced teachers. These colleges rank among the very best in the United States. Enjoying the reputation of being the most popular and successful institutions west of the Mississippi."
The Kansas City Journal says in its report of the Inter-State Fair of September 18, these institutions were represented at the Kansas City Inter-State Fair by the largest and best display that was ever made here. These colleges are the most popular and best equipped of any similar institutions west of the Mississippi river.
The course of study embraces almost every branch of commercial knowledge which is necessary in order to thoroughly prepare a student for any business in which he may desire to embark. No better evidence of their true worth and high standing could be given than the fact that they have received the highest award on the best course of study in commercial colleges, best miscellaneous penmanship, best penmanship executed by students in commercial colleges, at the Kansas City Inter-State Fair, Kansas State Fair, Western National, also at the Illinois State Fair on best pen work. Parties desirous of attending first-class commercial colleges should address these colleges before going elsewhere.

Now that the Law Department is to be reorganized and given a reasonable support, why can't the hour of recitation be changed to some time in the afternoon, or at least to some more convenient hour than eight o'clock in the morning? It would meet the approval of nearly every student to have a change either to the afternoon or ten o'clock in the forenoon. As the professors are now to receive a sufficient remuneration to warrant them in giving their time to the matter, it would probably meet their approval also. Why can't it be done?

Courier Company Election.
The University Courier Company yee晨 day held its election of staff and officers for the eoing year. Fifty three out of fifty nine stockholders were present. The leaders of the element that had, last Friday, gone through the form of electing a staff evidently having come to the conclusion their action was illegal were present and fought royalty for their interests. After the reading of the roll of stockholders by secretary Oakley the financial report of the affairs on paper was made by J. Sullivan business manager. The following officers and editors who threw in belief for the ensuing year: President J. Sullivan; Secretary, Ross Wemple; editors E. Hayslett, Denton Dunn, Miss Hattie Cooke and Lutella Moore, W. Caywood, W. S. Shuttack, Chus, Elwell, Fred. Bowersock; business managers, J. Sullivan and T. S. Fritz.
On motion the business managers were voted the profits of the paper the coming year. The Courier for the year post has been one of the brightest weekly college papers in the country. The University and Lawrence can well be proud of it. The management was strong and in the same hands during the year to come it will be a surprise if it does not prosper. We understand it will be enlarged soon.-Lawrence Journal, Tuesday Morning.
THE UIVERSITY COURIER COMPANY
THE COURTER Company at I'Oclock Monday, held a meeting at the University for the purpose of electing a staff and officers for the coming year. Fifty-three out of fifty-nine stockholders were present. J. Sullivan occupied the chair as president of the meeting, and F. T. Oakley as secretary. After a little contest the following were practically unanimously elected, and will control the destinies of the paper the coming year. President of the company, J. Sullivan, secretary, Ross Wemple; editors. R. E. Hayslett, Misses Harriet Cooke and Luella Moore, Denton Dunn, Fred Bowersock, Chas. Elwell, W. C. Caywood, and S. W. Shattuck; business managers, J. Sullivan and T. S. Fritz. THE COURIER the past year has been one of the best weekly college papers in the United States. Under practically the same management the coming year, its success is assured.—Lawrence Gazette.
Autumn Musings.
Happening to be in Oread the other day, I noticed that during the proposals for membership a member of one fraternity gave in the names of his newly initiated brethren, whereupon he was followed by a member of another fraternity, who did likewise, and then a leader of a heterodox organization, which appeared among the other signs of hard times last year, proposed the names of his new satellites. Now, what does this mean? Are not these men put forward by the secret society leaders to increase the ring vote rather than because they wish to become good Oreads. It may be all right, but the way it was done looked suspicious.
I wonder if any enthusiastic fraternity man will go up to Nebraska University this year and try to "take in" (in more than one sense) a strong barb organization. If any rash visionary tries this again, he will probably be hooted out like the verdant Glen was, but he may not have the cheek to say he could find no "suitable material."
In rushing new men there is no necessity for rival fraternities to malign one another. A really good man will not be inclined towards a society which uses such petty and slanderous arguments. The men engaged in this dirty business had better stop before their work redounds against their own interests.
Again I am compelled to say that consistency is a jewel. In the last Review the editor of the "Reviews" department gives a glowing account of the evils of narcotics, yet he is seen every day complacently puffing his "twofer."
It is to be regretted that so little class spirit prevails in the University. In times gone by class lines were but loosely drawn, but under the present administration the classes are becoming entirely distinct from one another, so there is no excuse for the lack of enthusiasm now. Wake up, boys, and let us have some class contests—athletic or otherwise.
The faculty are making a good start in the way of chapel attendance. I sincerely hope the professors will not be so remiss in this duty as they were last year, so that THE COUCHER may not be again compelled reluctantly to publish an account of their attendance as before. If the faculty are always on hand the students will be there. Brace up, professors, and set the students a good example.
The Oratorical Association very unwisely paid out all money in the treasury to the stockholders. As I hold a share for which I paid a dollar, I fear that it is worthless and that I am a loser. Such blundering management should be avoided in the future, since there is no apology for it.
It seemed to me that last year there was altogether too much scheming for positions in college politics. I think this year that a reaction will set in and attention paid rather to merit. All things seem to point favorably, so that if a few honest fellows will try hard men may run on their merits and be elected. College politics should and can be run on an honorable basis, and until this is done unworthy men will be elected to hold important positions.
