During the winter of 1884-5 there were fires in the University furnaces 205 days and there was consumed 637 tons of coal. During the winter of 1885-6 there were fires 212 days and 520 tons used.

A party of students, gentlemen and ladies, whose lot it was to remain in a city several hours between trains, on their return trip to the classic city, represented themselves as a theatrical troop and were the center of attraction for the other waiting passengers. They were led bya Senior, who by his dignified manner and his stovepipe hat ably represented the part of manager.
Prof. Snow received a letter from Will Brown yesterday. He is now visiting at his home in Polk City, Iowa. He will return to Lawrence ina short time. He reports that the buffalo hunt was very successful, they having killed twenty-one buffalo, several antelope and a large amount of smaller game. Out of this the University will obtain two buffalo skins, several skeletons and some of the smaller game.
The clerk's office and the room back of the clerk's office, commonly known as the guide's room, have been thrown together by means of double doors and hereafter the clerk's office will occupy both rooms. The entrance will be by the door to the guide room. The enlarging of the office will greatly facilitate its workings. In the old quarters it was much cramped and crowded. The enlargement is a much needed and long desired improvement.
The superintendent of buildings and grounds in his report to the Regents, in speaking of the visitors says the following: "During the past two years over eight thousand visitors have been registered, and been shown through the University buildings, and we feel safe in adding twenty-five per cent. to the above number, that did not register. These visitors represent, as shown by our register, nearly every State and Territory of the Union, and nearly every country in Europe. Every courtesy and attention possible has been at all times shown to visitors."
Married, December 31st, at the residence of the bride's parents in Topeka, Miss Mamie Hudson and Mr. Del·Kizer. The bride is well known to old University students, she having attended the University several years, leaving in '84. She was an active member of the University chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta fraternity. By her winning and sweet disposition she endeared herself to every one so fortunate to be acquainted with her and was respected by all. The groom is business manager of the Topeka Capital and in his short residence in Kansas has won the respect of all who have met him, either in business or social relations. The young couple take up their residence in Topeka. The Courier unites with the students in wishing them a long and happy voyage through life.

It makes a person feel sad to see the black smoke pouring from the chimney, soiling the east front of Snow Hall. Though everything else be neglected, let the removal of the engine house be the first consideration.
In the library of Washburn College is a long table, on which are placed all the college journals received by the Argo in exchange. They are interesting and good reading. They give a student many new ideas in regard to other colleges and their work, and dispel many prejudices which may be formed against sister colleges. If the University will prepare a suitable table or rack or shelf in the library, the Courier will donate all their exchanges to the use of the students, reserving the right to clip all articles or notes which may be needed in making up the "College World" column.
Co-Education.
For years it has been the cry of the educational reformers, and the frienids of female education, that the girls did not have the same educational facilities and privileges as were enjoyed by the boys; that they have been debarred from enrollment in the classes of our great colleges and Universities; that the day has come when a radical reform must be made and that all educational institutions must be thrown open to them, giving them the same opportunities and same rights as are given to the boys. What has been the result of this cry and agitation can be readily seen, and it will be but a short time until there will be no occasion for a plea for the girls of our land in regard to education. Nearly all our newly founded institutions of learning are open to girls, the majority of them making no distinction whatever in the curriculum as regards the sexes. Yale, Harvard, Cornell, Columbia, Princeton—all the great institutions—are rapidly tearing away all barriers to the entrance of girls into their classes.
We believe that this is just, and that the girls are receiving no more than are their rights; but we would now, since we believe that there is no further cause for speaking in behalf of the girls, we would speak concerning a matter which we consider an injustice to the boys of free America. We refer to the shutting out in the cold, as it were, of thousands of boys from some of the greatest educational institutions in our country. We write scarcely able to control our feelings against this crying injustice. Why have the boys, they who have willingly, ay, eagerly, with outstretched arms, welcomed the girls to their colleges, why are they not allowed the privileges of enrolling among the fair classes of Wellesley, Vassar, Smith, Jacksonville, Bethany. Fair Kansas, the boasted center of co-education, with her ten growing and prosperous colleges, contains but one which is not co-educational, and that one, a shame to our boast, bars from her halls the presence of the male student, though many have been eager to enter. The workers for co-education have before them a heavy task indeed, the correcting of these abuses. It cannot be said that the boys do not need to be allowed to enter these colleges of well meaning but mistaken and old-fashioned ideas, that there are an ample number of good colleges where they are allowed to enter, for it is well known that there are branches taught in the girls' colleges which have no equals in any of the co-educational or boys, colleges. In Vassar all the domestic arts are taught, while at Wellesly the department of pie making is the favorite department, and the Dean of that department the most influential and best liked of the faculty.
The solving of the question of obtaining equal co-educational privileges for both sexes is the most difficult and yet the most momentous of all those that come before the educators of our land. It needs to be studied carefully and thoroughly. Neither sex should suffer for the sake of the other, the male should suffer no educational detriment that the female might thrive.
The editorial staff of the COURLER from the "devil," down to the editor-in-chief, wish to return thanks to Harry Riggs for the efficient manner in which he conducted the holiday number, thereby allowing them a visit home, and a much-needed rest and recreation.
FROM now on the Topeka Capital will be delivered to Lawrence subscribers by 8:15 o'clock of the same morning of its publication. Now let the University make arrangements whereby it can secure this paper for the library the same morning that it is published and not receive it from two to six days behind hand as heretofore.
Some negroes down in North Carolina killed a student of the North Carolina University. The boys were out on a little tear and got into a quarrel with the colored fellows when one of the negroes accidently insulted one of the students. That settled it. As the Magazine published by the students says "they did what any other high born chivalrous boy anxious to see his own race defended against that of the negroes would have done." They proceeded to get reinforcements to do up the colored population, but as the colored population were loaded one "chivalrous youth" sleeps beneath the daisies.
A GREAT many people and papers seem surprised at the large number of advertisements which adorn the columns of the Courier, and are disposed to criticise the paper on that account. To such we would say that the Courier runs no more advertisements than are necessary to its maintenance. This paper is not a money-making scheme, but the frequency of its appearance the amount of matter which it contains and its general make-up necessarily involve large expenditures Again by making our subscription price so small (smaller in fact than any of our exchanges) we have been able to popularize the paper and give it a wide circulation among alumni and other friends o the University. This we believe has enhanced its value and made it beneficial to University interests but our revenue on subscription has been quite insignificant. From these reasons it will be seen that we are dependent to a large extent on our advertisements for support And in this connection it is prope to again return thanks to the business men of the city for their continued favors.
Chancellor's Report.
[CONTINUED FROM LAST ISSUE.]
From the earliest years of the University, instruction has been given in music to those desiring it; but no serious effort has been made formally to organize a school of music as an integral part of the University work until the fall term of 1884-5. At this time William McDonald, jr., a graduate of the New England Conservatory of Music was elected Dean of the Department of Music. This department has been in operation now for two full years and has met with singular success. No appropriation has ever been
made by the Legislature for its support; yet it has fairly established itself. The promise of its future is flattering. Its revenues are derived from tuitions.

Since my last report, a School of Pharmacy has been established. The Legislature, at its session of 1885, directed the establishment of a chair of Pharmacy, and indicated the fund from which its support was to be drawn. These funds proving inadequate, the same Legislature, at its special session of 1886, generously made further and complete provision for the support of the chair. An extensive correspondence, followed by a personal interview, led to the selection of Lucius E. Sayre, Ph. G., as Professor of Pharmacy. Mr. Sayre is a graduate of the Philadelphia school of Pharmacy. After graduation, he was successfully engaged for a number of years in the business of a practical druggist. During this time, he continued his studies in theoretical pharmacy, and, in addition, gained eminence as a lecturer and teacher in the Woman's Medical College, of Philadelphia, and in the School of Pharmacy in the same city. He came te us, in September, 1885, with the highest testimonials, and entered at once upon his work. He has been eminently successful. The wisdom of the establishment of this chair has already been abundantly demonstrated.
The Department of Natural History, under the judicious direction of Prof. F. H. Snow, comes every year into greater prominence. The cabinet collections, chiefly in the Departments of Botany, Geology and Zoology contain not less than 160,000 specimens. These are classified and arranged in such manner as to contribute largely to the efficiency of instruction in these branches.
The increasing need of room for cabinets and laboratories in this department of University work led to the generous appropriation of $50,000 by the last Legislature for the erection of a suitable building for Natural History. One-half of this fund became available on the first of July, 1885, the rest, one year later.
At a meeting of the Board of Regents, held April 1, 1885, Messrs. Haskell & Wood, architects, were directed to prepare plans and specifications for such a building as was contemplated in the action of the Legislature. With these plans and specifications in hand, the building committee of the Board, consisting of Prof. F. A. Fitzpatrick, of Leavenworth, Hon. A. G. Otis, of Atchison, and the Chancellor, advertised for bids. The contract was let to J. N. McFarland & Son, of Lawrence, the lowest bidders, for $44,666. The location of the building was determined in full meeting of the Board, and ground was broken July 13th, 1885.
The greatest care was taken to secure a stable foundation. Indeed every wall, interior as well as exterior, rests upon the solid rock The work has progressed under the most careful supervision on the part both of the architects and of the building committee. The building now, September 1886, approaches completion. In its arrangement of rooms for the cabinet cases, laboratories, etc., in its location, in its architectural proportions, it is all that can be desired. The builders have done their work well. When it shall have been furnished with needed cabinet cases so that a display can be made of the material already collected, it will be a gratifying surprise, we think,
even to those who are best acquainted with the University, that so handsome a beginning has been made in this line of University work. Moreover, when the department shall have been supplied thus with the means of making an exhibition of the illustrative material in hand, and when the lecture room and laboratories shall have been finished with the needed apparatus, we think we may venture the assertion that but few of the colleges of the country will be better prepared for the most advanced work in natural history.

Weather Report for December 1886.
PREPARED BY PROF. F. H. SNOW, OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FROM OBSERVATIONS TAKEN AT LAWRENCE.
A cold December; although the minimum temperature has been often surpassed, its average temperatures were unusually low. There have been five colder Decembers in the past 19 years ('68, '72, '76, '78, and '84). The rainfall was only half the usual amount, thus fifty closing the driest year on our record. The sky was clearer than usual and the wind velocity was above the average.
MEAN TEMPERATURE—24.03 degrees, which is 5.62 deg., below the December average. The highest temperature was 58 deg., on the 10th; the lowest was 6 deg., below zero, on the 27th, giving a range of 64 deg. The mercury fell below zero on 3 days. Mean at 7 a. m., 19.03 deg.; at 2 p. m., 30.79 deg.; at 9 p. m., 23.16 deg.
RAINFALL — INCLUDING MELTED snow—0.83 inch, which is 0.80 inch below the December average. Rain or snow in measurable quantities fell on 6 days. Snow fell on five days, on two of which the quantity was too small for measurement.

MEAN CLOUDINESS—37.77 per cent. of the sky, the month being 14.52 per cent. clearer than usual. Number of clear days (less than one-third cloudy) 15; half clear (from one to two-thirds cloudy) 10; cloudy (more than two-thirds) 6. There were 5 entirely clear days and 5 entirely cloudy.

Wind—N. W., 24 times; S. W., 22 times; N. E., 19 times; N., 12 times; S. E., 8 times; S., 5 times; E., twice; W., once. The total run of the wind was 12,170 miles, which is 463 miles above the December average. This gives a mean daily velocity of 392.58 miles and a mean hourly velocity of 16.36 miles. The highest velocity was 42 miles an hour, on the 31st, from noon to 1 p.m.
BAROMETER—Mean for the month 29.254 inches; at 7 a.m., 29.264 inches; at 2 p.m., 29.228 inches; at 9 p.m., 29.270 inches; maximum 29.788 inches, on the 4th; minimum, 28.825 inches, on the 17th; monthly range, 0.963 inch.
RELATIVE HUMIDITY—Mean for the month, 73.4; at 7 a.m., 81.9; at 2 p.m., 52.3; at 9 p.m., 76.9; greatest, 100, on eight occasions; least, 20.5, on the 20th. There was no fog.

The above names will ornament a shingle in the thriving town of Ness City; and a further adornment of the same shingle will be, "Attorneys at Law." The members of this new firm, Messrs. E.C. and W.T. Little, are well-known and possess an almost unlimited number of friends in University circles. The connection of both of these gentlemen with the University has been so marked and distinguished, and their knowability has won for them such great success and honor in all fields of student enterprise that we have no hesitancy in saying that they are worthy of the highest trust and confidence of the business world.
Mr. E. C. Little entered the University in the fall of '78 and immediately took a position in the very front rank. He was the founder of the Kansas "Renior" and subsequently held the positions of business manager, editor and editor-in-chief on the same paper. In athletics he won the 100 yards dash and was pitcher and captain of the college nine in his Sophomore year. In his Junior year he was Oread contest orator and on commencement represented his class with the memorial address, which was afterwards published in the Kansas City papers; he being the first to win this distinction. As an orator Mr. Little possessed remarkable force and brilliancy, and always delighted his audiences. He graduated in '83 at the head of his department, was chosen by the faculty as its representative, and was also elected by the class to speak on class day, which double honor has not been held by any other graduate since the present system was inaugurated. After graduation, Mr. Little was in the employ of the A. T. & S. F. railroad, as editor of The Santa Fe Trail, and his sparkling and witty articles were widely copied by the Kansas press. He read his first year in law with Hon. L. D. Wheat, of Leavenworth, the second with Judge Usher, of Lawrence; graduated with the class of '86, and delivered the valedictory. For the last two years he held the position of editor-in-chief of the Shilda of the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity, which is no small compliment to his ability, considering the fact that this fraternity has a membership of over 5,000, and its chapters are located in thirty-six of the foremost colleges of the land.
Will T. Little has been connected with the University for a shorter time, but during that time, he was always prominent and held many important positions. He was editor and business manager of the University Review. He was oratorical contestant in '85, and was chosen by the faculty to speak in the commencement contest, the same year. He was a member of the law school at the time of his departure. Mr. Little was one of the founders of Leoti City, the county seat of Wichita county, and is a member of the present town company. He is a true Western "rustler," and has the push and enterprise necessary to achieve success.
These gentlemen have the best wishes of the COUCIER, and of many friends, who are confident that they will be eminently successful in their new enterprise.
A new anemometer for measuring the velocity of the wind has been received from the signal service at Washington. It has been placed on the north dome and connected by means of electrical wires with the indicator in Prof. Snow's room in Snow Hall, and every mile is faithfully recorded on the indicator. It bears the government stamp and therefore can be relied upon as being correct in its measurements.
The lecture room of Snow Hall is a splendid echo gallery.

Fire
Last week for the first time since its founding, the Courier failed to appear. Most of our readers are already cognizant of the reason, are already well acquainted with the details of the great conflagration which visited Lawrence last week and by which the Courier office, with all its contents was totally destroyed. We deem an apology for our non-appearance, (in consideration of the circumstances) hardly necessary. Had the fire but given us a week or ten days notice beforehand, as have done, or had promises which were made to us after our loss and which were only broken when too late for other arrangements to be made, been lived up to, we would have been prepared to issue on time and in regular form. As it is, we can only hope that no circumstances of any nature may ever again arise whereby the Courier will be compelled to discontinue publication, even for one number but it may ever brighten the Friday mornings with its presence, the representative paper of the students of the Kansas State University.
Keep out of the halls.

The "Freshies" are looking for the worldly minded villains who locked them in Friday afternoon.
W. W. Davis has made arrangements whereby he will continue to publish the Courier as before.

The fire smoked and smothered for over a week in the ruins of the burnt block.

The Lawrence Fire Department were busy all day the Sunday and Monday after the fire, in filling cisterns. We have heard about locking the stable door after the horse has been stolen.
At a meeting of the board of directors of the Courier Company, two weeks ago, Denton Hogeboom was elected business manager, to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of L. A. Sharrard.
The appointments for Washington's birthday exercises are as follows: Senior class, E. G. Blair and Cora Kimball; Junior class, F. G Crowell and Flora Newlin; Sophomore class, W. W. Davis; Freshman, Marcella Howland. Those of the Senior class will deliver orations, the Juniors essays and the Sophomore and Freshmen, declamations.
The examinations next week will be conducted as they have been heretofore. The examinations of the first hour studies will be held Tuesday; second hour studies, Wednesday; third hour Thursday and fourth Friday. Where a study alternates with another, the time will be divided between them.
As far as we have been able to discover, the account in last Tuesday's Journal of the 11th, in regard to a student carrying first of all a case of beer from his room and saving nothing else at the fire, is a lie.
A very pleasant surprise party was given Lena Beard Monday evening by a number of her friends. Various amusements, known to the young people, pleasantly passed the evening. Elegant refreshments were served at the proper time.
Word has been received of the death of Dr. Wm. Street, father of C. E. Street, our local editor. Mr Street was at the death bed of his father, having not yet returned from the holiday vacation. The sympathy of every student is with him in his great affliction.
Prof. Green removed his extensive law library the fore part sf last week, from his office to the University. They have been placed in the room on the third floor formerly known as the "bear room." They will be conveniently arranged and will be open at all hours for reference and perusal by the students.
Since our last issue the waterworks stand pipe has been completed. It is 105 feet high and twenty feet in diameter and is surmounted by an iron fish, about twelve feet long, which.placed on a staff, swinging freely, makes a capital weather vane. The pipe and all its fixtures are painted a bright red.
The Freshmen held a meeting Friday afternoon last, on which occasion they determined to wear gray felt hats and appointed as a committee of one. Mr.Borough, to procure them. Another committee consisting of Miss Cook, Miss Goodell and Mr.Mushrush, was chosen to select badges. After transacting some other business the meeting was adjourned until February 5th.
The members of Phi Gamma Delta and their lady friends were entertained Wednesday evening January 12, by a whist party at the beautiful residence of Samuel A. Riggs in South Lawrence. Those who have enjoyed the hospitality of Mr. and Mrs. Riggs can well imagine the pleasant manner in which their guests were received and the enjoyable evening which they spent.
The following is the University lecture course and the dates as far as is known at present: February 8th, Dr. F. B. Tiffany, of Kansas City; February 15th, concert by Department of Music; March 1st, O. Chanute, of Kansas City; B. P. Wagoner, of Atchison, Rabi Joseph Kraus Kopff, of Kansas City; H. C. Ives, of St. Louis. The Department of Music will give concerts every few weeks after the completion of the course.

Canfield, Misses Jo Gilmore and Mammie Manly, Messrs. Henri Nickle, E. G. Blair W. E. Higgins, W. S. Jenks, W. R. Cone, A. C. Cunkle, T. F. Doran R. J. Curdy.
ORATORICAL CONTEST—The fourth annual contest of the University Oratorical Association will be held next Friday evening at Bowersock's opera house. The contestants will be Dent Dunn, W. E. Higgins, Henri Nickle, George Dick and Henry Hamilton. The contest will undoubtedly be a good one. All of those who take part are well known as writers and speakers of ability.

The Tariff Debate
This debate which is under the uspices of the Jeffersonian Club was opened last Monday night by Prof. J. H. Canfield. A. O. U. W. hall was well filled, showing that people are interested in the question. There was also a goodly sprinkling of students. The question under discussion is:
"Resolved: That the American system of protection is false in theory and pernicious in practice." Prof. Canfield opened for the affirmative and, according to agreement confined himself to the first half of the question.
The Professor said that the question is still an open one, showing thereby that the right solution has not yet been reached for Mr. Sumner was correct when he said: "In a free country nothing can be settled that is not right. He then proceeded to lay a firm foundation for his talk, stating clearly the nature of trade, labor and the market and the dependence and relation between them. He stated that tax is unconstitutional when levied for other than governmental uses; and he proved the assertion by citations from eminent authorities. He then proceeded to handle the question directly and made the following points:
1st. The theory of protection is false because it denies men freedom of market.
2d. Limitation of the market breeds monopolies.
3d. The theory is false because it makes every discovery of natural resources a curse instead of a blessing
4th. The theory is false because it denies the enjoyment of the free gifts of nature.
5th. It is false because it says that the United States is an inferior nation.
The professor said that he had birteen points in all, but for lack of time was unable to proceed.
Prot. Canfield spoke eloquently and earnestly and held the attention of the large audience with remarkable ease, considering the length of time which the address occupied.
Occasional bursts of genuine ornature were greeted with applause, while sallies of ridicule moved all to laughter. In short the address was highly instructive and entertaining. Judge Thacher will reply next Monday evening.
Boarding Clubs.
Who originated the plan in K. S. U. of students conducting boarding clubs and who started the first one going? Some say one, others say another, but whoever it may have been, let him stand forth and receive the thanks and blessings of everyone of the many students, who are, by boarding in clubs, escaping the nuisances of high price but inferior boarding houses.
of each president to make the board bill very small and his pride to reduce the price of living below that of his predecessor. Such being the case, the board bill was often very small indeed and the food very poor, so poor in fact that the greater body of students had no desire to join themselves with these clubs.
When the first boarding clubs were established they were conducted simply as a money saving institution. They were managed by students who were in straightened financial circumstances and who could not afford to attend school, were they compelled to pay the high price which was then charged for anything like decent living. It was the aim
But this has changed, and while there are clubs of the present day that are conducted with as little cost to their members as in the early days yet there is none but that the food is clean, nutritious, in abundance, and with a variety, showing the effects of experience in managing clubs. And there are some clubs whose members have no cause, on account of finances, to live cheaply, but whose only object in boarding in clubs is that they have found that they can be better satisfied and live better, boarding in this manner than they can in any other.
There are at present six boarding clubs conducted by the students of K. S. U. One of them comprises ladies and gentlemen, the others only gentlemen. In numbers they range all the way from twelve to twenty members. The cost per week, depending upon the membership and the quality of the food, varies from an average of $2.25 per week in the cheapest to $3.50 per week in the most costly.
The manner in which these clubs are managed is essentially the same in all. A person is employed for a certain remuneration per week from each member to prepare and serve the food, she furnishing all necessary articles and utensils. A president or steward is elected or appointed by the club, for a certain term, the length of the term differing in the different clubs. This president has full charge of the making of the bills of fare, purchasing provisions, making and collecting the necessary assessments for the maintainence of the club, and settling all bills held against tha club. In one club the president is assisted by an auditing committee whose duties are in determining the sum which should be collected from each member.
There are more students boarding in clubs at present than ever before in the history of K. S. U. They are from all ranks; where before only the financially poor classes, now all classes are represented. While there is no probability of the club system entirely superceding the boarding house system, yet no student who has ever been a member of a good club ever feels satisfied in a change.
For the benefit of our foreign subscribers we will give the following short account of the fire by which we suffered so disastrously:
The Fire
On Saturday night, January 8th, about 11:30, fire was discovered in the double store room occupied by the dry and fancy goods house known as the "Trade Palace" and conducted by Kahnweiler & Bro. When discovered the flames were raging fiercely and before the efficient (?) fire department could gain control the fire had completely consumed Siler's grocery, Salvation Army hall and J. Montgomery's grocery to the
south of Kahnweiler's and destroyed Falley's restaurant and greatly damaged Straffon's drug store to the north. Two explosions during the fire were so powerful as to break the plate glass windows in the stores across the sreet.
In the second stories of the destroyed buildings were the rooms of quite a number of students. Some of these lost nothing while others saved nothing excepting what they could catch up when aroused by the fire. The following is a partial list of the students and their losses: M. O. Billings and Dickerson, books, papers, ete.; Cunkle and Martindale, nothing: Kirkpatrick, Reager and Fox saved nothing; J. E. Griffith, estimated loss amounted to about $300; John Kleinhans $150; W. S. Jenks, $300, Fred Dorrance, $150; J. W. Henshaw, $800; W. W. Davis, $700.
On the second floor of the block was situated the Courier office. Here were the type, cuts, chases, in fact all the necessary material by which the Courier was published. They were the property of W. W. Davis, a student of the University. Everything was destroyed, the flames spreading so rapidly that it, was impossible to enter the office for the purpose of removing anything. The Courier for last week was well under way, most of the advertisements, headings, etc., and several columns of matter being in type. The loss on the material etc., is estimated at about $500. No insurance. It was after 4 o'clock Sunday morning before the fire was under control. The total losses amount to about $75,000 with about $50,000 insurance.
Oread-Orophilian Contest
The long awaited for seventh annual contest between the Oread and Orophilian literary societies was held last Friday evening in University Hall. The audience was large and appreciative and was noticeable for the close attention which it paid to the performance of the entire evening. F. G. Crowell, of Oread Society presided as president of the evening.
The first on the program was music by the University orchestra. This was the first appearance of the University orchestra in the musical world of K. S. U., and by its splendid rendition of the beautiful selection, surprised its most ardent supporters, and surpassed the highest anticipations.
After the invocation by Chancellor Lippincott, C. L. Smith, representing Oread as essayist was introduced. His subject, "Room at the Top" was handled in a manner which showed much care and thought. His delivery was free and easy. He argued that the idea, that there is room at the top is, in general, a mistaken one; that these positions are all occupied and more than a sufficient number justly knocking for admittance.
Miss Inez Taggart, the essayest of Orophilian, took for her subject, "Night brings out the Stars." Strangely and by a mere chance her essay treated of nearly the same points as that of Mr. Smith but she refuted his arguments. She held that by genius and perseverance a person can with almost absolute certainty reach the top round of the ladder. Her essay was very flowery and figurative and her delivery splendid.
Miss Birdie Atwood then favored the audience with a beautiful piano solo.
The question: Resolved, That a National System of Direct Taxation is preferable to one of Indirect, was argued on the affirmative by Fred Bowersock of Oread and on the negative by E. A. Ackley of Orophilum.
Mr. Bowersock argued that the indirect system is complicated, difficult to adjust, leaves open many avenues for corruption, and creates more expense in collection than the direct. The words of his debate were well chosen and to the point and his delivery with the exception of being too rapid, was very good.
Mr. Ackley maintained that indirect system is a favorite with the people because it enables them to pay their tax at a time and in a manner most convenient. He claimed that this system is not complicated nor cumbersome when collected as a necessary income, and that though it is abused to a certain extent yet the collectors of one system are no more corrupt than those of another. Mr. Ackley is justly considered one of the most eloquent speakers and most forcible writers of the University and his reputation was upheld and strengthened by his debate. It was considered by many of the audience to have been the finest production of the evenings, and his appearance to have been the best of all the performers.
Henri Nickle of Oread discussed "Some Problems." He claimed that the bondage of wealth held men in its power as did the slavery of old. He showed the necessity of a change of some kind and prophesied a revolution were not the necessity heeded. Mr. Nickle possesses a magnetism and fire possessed by few orators. His voice is splendid and his gestures graceful and easy.
Following a beautiful solo by that ever welcome vocalist Dan Crew, were the declamations "The Death Bridge of the Tay" by Miss Emma Bartell of Orophilian, and "Lasca" by Miss Gertie Hunnicutt of Oread. Both performances were excellent. The styles of speaking were different necessitated by the difference of nature in their declamations, Miss Hunnicutt's being dramatic, while Miss Bartell's calm and sympathetic.
After another solo by Dan Crew, the first orator was introduced, W. E. Higgins of Orophilian. His subject "Why a Mind" demonstrated the necessity of a mind with a supreme power and a mind distinct from simple material. He showed that moral and physical qualities were entirely dependent on the mental. Mr. Higgins shows remarkable oratorial skill and training. He possesses a rich and powerful voice.
ne
While the judges were comparing their markings the orchestra rendered several selections in an excellent manner.
The decision of the judges, Col. H.M.Green, Maj.B.J.Horton and D.S.Alford, were in favor of Orophilian by a marking of 85 points to 78, Orophilian winning in everything excepting in declamation.

The Washburn Argo is a very excellent paper and is run on the plan of the best college months. We are sorry that the Courier has failed to reach her, and we hasten to make amends. It has been through mistake or carelessness and not on account of any malice towards her.
The following from the Lehigh Burr is not bad:
As Horace sang of lovely maids,
Bedecked with flowers and laure crowns,
So will I sing a love of mine,
A maid whose praise resounds.
Her form is slim, and lightly made,
Her hair a glorious golden brown,
And she is clad, like gentle maid,
In simple, snow white gown.
She has admirers everywhere,
And everyone has sore regret
As into curling smoke she fades.
The matchless cigarette.
The Miami or to use its explanation of its name "the Manny Journal" is a partial apology for a college paper. Miami is an old school which has been reposing for some years in the arms of death, but its emancipated and skeleton form is being rubbed with a desperate attempt to try to bring it to life; as yet the attempt is by no means successful. Yet the Journal has the nerve to rank Miami as one of the foremost institutions in the land. It even has the laughable and amusing audacity to call Beta Theta Pi, Phi Delta Theta and Sigma Chi "the three most powerful fraternities" in the Greek world. In a recent number we learn also with surprise and pain that our old friend Ovid is dead; the Journal speaks favorably of the deceased's literary ability. While we are in Miami's future and hope to see her firmly established again, we think that the Journal will be of little service under its present management. Many of our high school exchanges far surpass it.

The day of the inauguration of the State officers at Topeka, was one of grandest in the history of Kansas. Six ex-governors were present and made addresses. The inauguration took place at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, at 7:30 was a grand reception and at 9:30 began the renowned inaugural ball.
Miss Minnie Maddern, the charming actress, was shown through Snow Hall by Eames. She expressed much surprise at the beauty of the building; though being a regular subscriber of the Courier and having read the many good notices of the building contained therein, yet it surpassed her anticipations. She was much interested in the appearances by which Prof. Snow's reports are prepared, saying that these reports have been her favorite literature for many years. Upon Eames answering in Spanish, one of her questions she hastily entered her hack and was driven down the hill.
