The Profs., the young ladies, the town-people, everybody, came out to the K. S. U. vs. Washburn game. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MAY 6. 1 $ ^{7} $ Swope and Postlethwaite will row against Morris and Houk for the championship of the University. F. H. Kellogg, Phi Delt short stop, is rapidly recovering from his injuries and will be able to play with the Phis in the next game. The great game of the season will be that of the I. C.'s against the K. A.T.'s. It will be played by proxy and will no doubt be full of interest. Ladies will be charged admission, gentlemen free. For the past week the girls have been busy securing their players. Three of University's dashing gallants took a ride on the Kaw river sail boat last week. That is they started to take a ride, but as it turned out, swimming and walking were the chief features of the day's sport. They dried their dripping clothes and came back to town carrying a bold front, but the reporter of the Tribune gave them away in a very sensational article. To-morrow afternoon (Saturday) the Sigma Nus and Betas will play their game. These clubs have the same record, both having lost two games. The game will on this account be all the more stubbornly contested. This afternoon the Phi Gams and Sigma Chis cross bats. The Sigs are in good trim and the Phi Gams somewhat weakened by recent losses. The game promises to be a close one. Fraternity nines are many of them suffering losses. Allen, captain and first baseman for the Phi Psi will not be able to play any more this year. Miles and Delo, first base and left field for the Phi Gams have left school and joined surveying parties. Jep Davis, captain and catcher for the Phi Delts, will not be able to play in his regular position for several weeks. The boys propose to keep the league up just the same and play out the schedule as arranged. K. S. U. VS. WASHBURN. Last Saturday the long expected game was played. A large crowd was present, the grand stand being nearly full when the game began. Naturally the sympathy was with the home club, but the applause was not at all one-sided, good plays by Washburn were as heartily applauded as those of our club. About 3 o'clock the Washburn club arrived on the grounds, attired in their handsome new uniforms of blue and grey. The game began shortly after, with Washburn at the bat. In the first three innings the visitors did not make a tally, while our boys made two, this gave the friends of the home club considerable confidence and seemed to promise a close game. But in the fourth the Washburns did better batting and the University club made errors all around, thus the Washburns were enabled to make eight runs. Our club made another and its last run in the fifth. After the fifth inning Jackson pitched for K. S. U. Captain Davis was struck by a foul tip and his right hand so badly hurt that he was obliged to put Campbell behind the bat and go into the field. The excellent battery work of the Washburn club was undoubtedly what won them the game. Brewster, their pitcher, struck out twelve batters. Our club on the whole did not play as well as usual. Barlow did good work on first. Deford played in his usual excellent way and undoubtedly was not surpassed by any player in either club. He assisted in several fine double plays and has the credit of making two of the University's three runs. Esterly did not do nearly as well as usual but distinguished himself by a fine running catch in the eighth inning. One of the prettiest plays of the game was the fly catch by Washburn's third baseman The umpire, furnished by Washburn understood his business and gave satisfaction to both sides. The following is the score: Washburn. Runs. Lawrence. Runs. H. Tucker, f. 1... 0 Dedford, s. 2 Runs. Chamberlain, s. 2 Hogeboom, l. 1 Brewster, p. 1 Davis, c. 1 W.

Gilmore—"Oh for a lodge in some vast wilderness." The opinions of our base ballists on Saturday's game have been collected and are below printed for the Courier readers: J. D. Davis—"What a pity it is that we can die but once to save our country." A. G. Canfield—"They never fail who die in a good cause." The benefit game yesterday between K. S. U. and Lawrence resulted in 12 to 11 in favor of the former. Jenks—"T were better to have played and lost than never to have played at all." Allen "The drying up a single tear has more of honest fame than shedding seas of gore." Esterly "T'was ever thus from childhood's hour." Barlow—"O what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive." Hickey—"Farewell, a long farewell to all my greatness." Deford "I shall fight it on this line if it takes all summer." Prof. Marsh—"We've showed too much 'o writ Buregard calls abandon for all our Thermopolies hav' ben clean vicy versy." Jackson—"There are more things in this world than are dreamt of in your philosophy." Chancellor's Reception. Last evening the Seniors in all the various departments, together with the faculty were entertained at the residence of Dr. Lippincott. Mrs Lippincott, assisted by MissJo Cook, of Kansas City, received the guests and made them welcome. The large house was tastefully decorated with flowers of various kinds and brilliantly illuminated. When the company had assembled and the parlors were thronged with the distinguished and scholarly members of '87, the scene presented was truly gay and picturesque. Congratulations were extended to the Seniors for the heroic manner with which they had stood the final examination test. The evening passed pleasantly in conversation. Very elegant refreshments were served at 10:30. When the company broke up, it was not without a feeling of sadness that they bade farewell to each other, remembering that this was probably the last time when as members of '87, they would meet with their class mates and the members of the faculty in social intercourse. LAW. The Seniors are manifesting their philanthropy by preparing a petition to be submitted to the board of Regents, in behalf of the future classes. The Juniors have been invited to attend the alumni banquet, an honor never before conferred upon the Junior classes. The relative merits and demerits of the Sunday law were argued at the last session of moot court. Owing to the ambiguity of one or two sections of the statutes of our State, Judge Green was unable to decide the point at issue. Mr. I. F. Bradley, who was elected by the Seniors to make the hat speech, is a young colored man of more than ordinary ability. He is a graduate of Lincoln Institute, Jefferson City, Missouri, and is considered by many to be the best orator in his class. We regret that through an unintentional mistake the name of Mr. J. T. Dickerson was omitted from our list of Class Day selections by the Senior Law class. Mr. Dickerson was chosen orator of that body. He is a talented speaker and will do credit to his class and honor the department which he represents. It is not generally known that the Senior class boasts of a poet of no mean ability, in the person of Mr. G. W. Frolich. His style is pleasing and metre almost perfect, and many of his efforts possess real merit. We'll wager Gilmore's new spring hat that the classes for the next ten years to come will not have his equal. Mr. Frolich will write a class poem for class day exercises. Dan Crew went to Topeka Monday night. Personal. Miss Emma Hynes is visiting in Chicago. No. 34. Prof. W. H. Carruth went to Topeka Tuesday. Ernest Himoe was on Mount Oread Tuesday. Miss Josie Cook was seen in the halls last week. Charles Gault, of Baldwin, visited the University Tuesday. J. U. Higinbotham visited his Phi Gam brothers last week. J. T. Hoover, of Emporia, visited the University last Friday. R. E. Krohtook in Booth and visited at his home last week. Mrs. W. H. Tenney spent Sunday with her parents in Lawrence. Miss Emma Hurd of Leavenworth, is visiting the family of Dr. Williams. Miss Nannie Love remained home Wednesday on account of sickness- Miss Bistline will visit relatives near Topeka Saturday and Sunday. M. J. Keys, editor of the Scott City Sentinel, was seen in the halls Tuesday. Prof. Marsh leaves next Monday for the east where he will spend the summer. Miss Gussie Price is enjoying a visit from her cousin, Miss Botkin, of Omaha, Neb. Whit Miles left last Tuesday for Nebraska, where he will join a surveying party. Miss Daisy Cockins leaves Monday with her parents to spend the summer in the east. S. T. Gilmore, manager of the K. S. U. nine, will spend Sunday at his home near Endora. George Lewis will play behind the bat in the Phi Delt nine, in place of their disabled player. J. J. Mastin a made visit to Lawrence friends Monday. He will not return to school this year. George Metcalfe returned from Colora no last Sunday and will visit old friends for a few days. Miss Price, of Paola, who is stopping with Miss Mamie Tisdale, visited the University yesterday. Miss Fannie Pratt, formerly of '87, is living in Kansas City. She will attend Commencement exercises. Richard Short has gone to Nebraska where he will work with a surveying party on the B. & M. railroad. Misses Agnes Wright and Jean Oliver go to Olathe Friday to spend a few days with Miss Nellie Dow. Since Dr. Lippincott's last "reception," the halls seem to be almost deserted. We are glad to note the change. Hodge's many friends will regret to hear that he will leave for his home in Marion next week not to return. A. W.Postlethwaite left Wednesday morning to assist in making a railroad survey to Paola. He will be absent ten or fifteen days. Denton Dunn spent the first part of the week at his home in Kansas City. The boys think that he left to avoid the Tribune man. Jep Davis has our sympathies on account of his previous accidents, but he says that though "he is slightly disfigured he is still in the ring." Springer, Goddard, Williams and Postlethwaite left Thursday morning to assist in making a survey for the railroad between Lawrence and Paola. Chas. Delo has left the University having accepted a position in a surveying party on the Chicago extension of the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad. The ladies of Kappa Kappa Gamma will entertain the young gentlemen of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity, at the home of Miss Laura O'Bryan to-morrow evening. An elegant time is expected. Supt. Crocker left last Monday for a visit to the principal eastern cities where he will inspect the different methods of steam heating. Supt. Crocker during his stay with us has proven a worthy and efficient officer, and we sincerely hope that he may return benefitted. George T. Nicholson, who has been for some time past first assistant general passenger agent for the A. T. & Santa Fe railroad, has been promoted again and is now general passenger agent for that road. Mr. Nicholson was formerly a student of the University and has many friends among old students who will rejoice at his good fortune. Mr. Nicholson has been in the employ of the Santa Fe for a number of years and during that time has been steadily promoted, as a reward for his fidelity and ability. He is a remarkably young man to be placed in such an important position and the honor is no small one. The ladies should be on the watch. We heard the other day of a brilliant young fellow who was borrowing all his brother's worn out neck wear and bestowing it upon his lady friends for crazy quilts. Ladies see that each article has the proper trade mark before you receive it. Last Friday, E. E. Squires was installed president of the Orophilian. He made the following appointments: Critic, Ayers; pianist, Miss, Anna Bell; chorister, Higgins; sergeant-at-arms, Howard. The Senior reception will be held at the residence of Miss May Churchill, on Ohio street, Friday evening May, 20. 12 Buy a Straw Hat of Abe Levy. 100mVqpb 100d40 Go to Grosscup's for Ice Cream and Confectionery.

The English department by the aid of Prof. Marsh, has received 125 volumes of the early English Text Society, ten volumes of English Grammar, a work on old English songs, ballads, etc., and a full set of Arbor's reprints, and also sixty volumes of other miscellaneous works for that department. Through some mistake or over sight it was stated in last week's issue that Prof. Marsh was the author of the Arthur Richmond letters which have appeared from time to time in the North American Review. The falsity of the statement has already been announced by the city papers and it only remains for us to emphasize it and assure our readers that the article in question was entirely without foundation of truth. It has been remarked, in a joking way merely about the University, that Prof. Arthur Richmond Marsh was the author of the Arthur Richmond letters and it may have been that our editor thought that the joke was a serious fact or that he intended his article as a joke. But it was worded in such a serious, honest way as to mislead those who are not acquainted with the facts. On Wednesday night of Commencement several of the fraternities will give entertainments, parties they are usually called. This will of course make it impossible for the Courier's suggestion in regard to a University ball and reception to be carried out. Though impossible this year, we still believe that it would be a good plan and would be heartily enjoyed by all. Such an occasion would make it possible for alumni and students to meet together in a social way. It would be the great social event of the week and would enable all the students to carry away pleasant recollections. It would meet with favor with many of the alumni, as we know from personal inquiry. It would in short, be a fitting close to the festivities and the hard work of Commencement week. We think that next year, some of the Senior class will take the matter in hand, for we know that if properly managed it will be successful. Let it be given under the auspices of the Senior class, and invite all the students, professors and alumni. It need not be a ball merely, but a reception as well. A large number of our students are finding employment for the summer with surveying parties. This is a good business, fairly remunerative, and an excellent way of spending vacation. We are glad that so many have been able to find places of this kind, it will give them a taste of rough life, fill them with new blood, and put them in better condition for the work of the winter. It speaks well too, for the efficiency of our Engineering Department. It is a pleasure to know that all the boys are not going to be engaged in that dubious tramp-like business of selling books. Not but what many great and good men have been engaged in the business, but from experiment we can say that it is conducive neither to morality nor general respect among the community. In truth it is a very difficult matter for a modest student to succeed in this profession. In proof of this we have only to state that Baker students have found it far more profitable than those from the University. Farming is far better and tends much more to the development of the athletic nature of man. But surveying is better than either, because it is more respectable than the first and pays better than the last. We suppose that there is no necessity for urging all students to attend the lecture this evening. The fact that Mr. Wallace is the most eminent of living naturalists ought of itself to be sufficient to fill the chapel to its utmost capacity. The thanks of the students are due to the lecture committee for affording this opportunity of hearing a really distinguished man. It is so seldom that such opportunities are afforded that we ought, on an occasion like this to be doubly grateful. In this connection we wish to say that the students ought to support and maintain by themselves a first class lecture course. We have no complaint to make against the faculty in this respect. They have furnished us with as good a course as was possible, under existing circumstances—free lectures and limited funds. However, the lecture course has not always in the past.been a success. Now a student's lecture association would be able, we think, to bring to the University some of the most eminent lecturers in the country. Such an association would be profitable. They are supported in many institutions like our own. At Baker last winter, through the efforts of the students, an excellent course was enjoyed and the association is we understand, in a flourishing condition. This is worth trying. We have had our game with Washburn and were beaten. The Courier has said repeatedly, that those who laugh last, laugh best." In this instance Washburn has a right to the best laugh. Our defeat seems to have had a depressing effect upon our base ballists. This is not right, it ought to stimulate them to greater effort and more vigorous work. No blame can be attached to anyone in particular. The club has not practiced enough together and it was for this reason that many costly errors were made. We ought not to be discouraged however, outside of the battery, our club is undoubtedly superior to Washburn. Without attributing anything to that old fraud "luck," we can say, as some of the Washburnites said, that their club surprised itself by its excellent work. We must not think of giving up after one game. In this respect many of the small colleges in the State, including Washburn, has set us a good example in the oratorical contests. Defeat has not depressed them, after each one they have come up again smiling, ready to try it over. Washburn has never won a contest, but she has always been enthusiastic and this year she came nearer to the top than ever before. Constant defent we know is not calculated to raise the spirits or make one very enthusiastic, but it ought to show where the weak points are and how they can best be remedied. By all means let the nine continue to practice and get it good shape to play a return game. English The Senior class was somewhat surprised and not a little disappointed when Prof. Marsh gave its members the requisites for their graduating theses. The instructions are an innovation, they overthrow and destroy many plans for spending Senior vacation in festivity and gaiety. They are in direct opposition to the traditions of past years, when the only requisite was 3,000 words on any topic, written in any manner on paper easily combustible. The theses this year must be on a subject that has received some attention from its writer and with which he has some familiarity. After the subject has been chosen, it must be carefully studied and all the available works pertaining to it must be consulted. It must be well written and carefully prepared, must show research, thought and work. Although an innovation we heartily commend this plan and think that it is the right one. When a student is ready to graduate, he ought, by reason of his four years work, to be able to prepare a thesis on some subject connected with his past studies. In this thesis he should set forth clearly his points and be able to prove them by citations and illustrations. In German Universities when a student graduates he presents before an audience such a thesis and is questioned upon the points which he makes or attempts to make. In the past no such thoroughness has been observed. In fact, Senior theses have been ridiculously slim and have been prepared without care or thought. Old essays, chapel orations worked over, 3,000 words on any subject, words written against time and space, portions of economic thesis; all these have been handed in, have passed muster and immediately on their presentation have been consigned to the flames or oblivion. Such careless work will under the new plan be of no avail. Nor can it be other than a matter of congratulation that the change has been made. We understand that Prof. Marsh intends to thoroughly revise the English course and require students to do more practical work in writing. This is another change much needed. The lack of training and of careful, thorough criticism has been on many occasions painfully noticeable. While there has been enough of writing, it has not been of the right kind. It will undoubtedly be a great advance and will work much good to our students if they begin the practice of careful writing in their Freshman year and continue it until graduation. Andrew D. White on Fraternities. The fraternity question has been discussed pro and con, in all its bearings, times innumerable. But the paper in the May Forum, by Andrew D. White, formerly president of Cornell, will probably have more weight and be of greater interest than anything heretofore written on the same subject, not only because Mr. White occupies a high position in the educational world, but because he has had an opportunity to observe the fraternities in their practical workings. Mr. White thinks it is inevitable that men should club together into organizations of some kind. This comes from the fact that "man is a social being." This being true, he thinks that fraternities reduce the evils resulting from such organizations to a minimum. For they are more premanent than temporary clubs, and the strong rivalry existing between them compel their members to preserve and guard their good name with watchful and jealous care. They assist also, he thinks, in maintaining proper discipline. While president of Cornell, Mr. White says that he was often able by appeals to fraternity pride, to make men rectify their ways, after all other means had failed. He regards as beneficial and productive of much good the conventions which fraternities hold, composed, as they are, of men from different institutions of learning. He thinks that the chapter house system is also productive of good results. Indeed he is heartily in favor of the system, because it brings a certain responsibility to young men in the houses and this responsibility makes them much more careful and considerate than they otherwise would be. He thinks that the secret part of fraternities is of little importance, as they have nothing very terrible to conceal. Young men who have been members of fraternities in college are not nearly so apt to join other secret organizations in after life. Mr. White concludes his paper thus: "The true question is, are the fraternities, as a fact, under all circumstances of the case, more powerful for evil than for good? My contention is that they reduce certain inevitable evils in college life to a minimum, that they produce much good in many ways, and that when college authorities deal with them in a large minded spirit, they can be made to do still more good." We would recommend to both the friends and the enemies of the fraternity system a careful perusal of Dr. White's paper. Alfred Russell Wallace. Alfred Russell Wallace. The most distinguished of living English naturalists, Alfred R. Wallace, who shares with Darwin the honor of having introduced into modern science the epoch making discovery of the variations of species with the environment, will lecture at the University on Friday evening. Professor Wallace is now on a lecturing tour in this country, and the lecture committee has been so fortunate as to secure him for the above date. Although the expense of this lecture is very large, all will be welcome, and seats free. Professor Wallace is not only one of the most fascinating of writers in his field of science, but at the same time stands in the first rank of popular lecturers and has aroused much enthusiasm wherever he has been heard. The lecture will be illustrated by the lantern. Monday while the young ladies of Kappa Alpha Theta were holding an exciting meeting in Prof. Canfield's lecture room, some wicked boys barred the door, making exit impossible any place excepting the window. Three of the most daring ones succeeded in reaching the ground uninjured and released the others from their captivity. Subscribe for the COURIER.

ER. NOTICE TO EXCHANGE EDITORS. Please do not publish the item again stating that the wife of the Mikado of Japan is a Vassar graduate, as the lady has since become a grandmother, and she and the item both need rest and quiet for a little while. And then there is the sweet dimpled, spirituelle face of the exchange editress of the Baldwin Index which smiles so exquisitely as she tells us that we are growing better and less disposed to quarrel. Yes, sister you are eminently correct, we are becoming more and more agreeable all the time and with your kind and tender sympathy we hope to be so redeemed from useless grumbling that a whole torch light procession might tramp on our corns without calling as much as a murmur from our lips. We are in receipt of Washburn's new paper, the Reporter. It is a weekly, modeled after the Courier, but of smaller size. The first issue is quite conservative and proper, it attacks no one, does not say what its object is or what it proposes to do. Aside from its general arrangement of matter, which is decidedly poor, the paper, on the whole, is fair. It is, we understand, a private concern, owned by two students. The management and editorial staff is made up almost entirely of Preparatory students. This seems to us a little strange, unaccustomed as we are to having preparatory students on our college papers. The paper is well patronized by advertisers and financially is on a sound basis. We believe that there is an opportunity at Washburn for such a paper and think, that if rightly managed, it will become decidedly popular. But allow us to suggest that you make it a little more attractive in its general make up, try and get the best men possible to serve on its staff and keep its general tone as high as you can. The reputation of a college paper among its co-temporaries and through this the reputation of the college among its sister institutions depends more upon the man who controls the exchange column of said paper than many would care to admit. This column is the first one read by the reviewer and if it appears bright and newsy the rest of the paper and institution represented produce a favorable impression upon the reader, and if he be an exchange editor ten to one will communicate his impression to his own journal. Yet many of our exchanges put some of the worst sticks on the editorial staff in charge of the exchange column. Look at the Niagara Index. They have reversed natural order and although the balance of the paper is miserable, the sheet is getting more notice than any other college journal going. The same is true of the Hesperian, the Lexington Journal and the defunct Pacific Pharos. When will college men ever learn that the exchange column is the front door yard of the paper and that the more attractive it is kept the better will be the opinion of the neighbors. J. S.

To show how the quality of the work ranges with the guarantee, there has not been a single person, student or others, who has sat for photos but has taken them. The daily Journal of this city in a recent editorial, gave a historical sketch of Woodward's Round Corner drug establishment, emphasizing the fact that this is not only the largest and most finely appointed of any in the west, but also the OLDEST ESTABLISHED BUSINESS HOUSE IN KANSAS, having been founded by Mr. Woodward almost one-third of a century ago when this was a "howling wilderness."

Those who were absent from the German Club last Friday, missed a rare treat. The program, which was one of the best there has been, was as follows: Reading, Miss Bartell; essays, Paul Goddard, Henri Nickel; story, Mamie Manly. The greatest attraction was the scene from Tell, between Stauffacher and Gertrude,by Prof. and Mrs. Carruth, who gave the spirited, yet touching scene its full effect. To-day will be presented the first scene of the German play in which some of the students are soon to appear. Hickey is the only student mounting birds for the zo-ological collection.

Let those elected do their best towards making the entertainment a success and a credit to the society. One of the most praiseworthy acts of the regents of the State University at their April meeting was the election of Miss Carrie M. Watson to the position of librarian. The production was well deserved. Miss Watson is a graduate of the institution, and for a number of years has most faithfully and efficiently filled the office of assistant, with the work and responsibilities of librarian. The regents could have selected no one better fitted by education, experience and popularity, to take entire executive charge of the great and most valuable collection of books now the property of the institution. The appointment will be especially commended by all former students of the University.-Topeka State Journal. Now is the season of the year when the fellow who has been making weekly calls for nine months past, suddenly bethinks himself of the parting that soon must come, and proceeds to get solid. Now do front gate hinges creak and ice cream parlors yawn. EDITOR COURIER:—I think there is a most outrageous, barbarous custom prevalent among the students of the K. S. U. and which I wish to protest against. It is that of alluding to a lady or gentleman who has been seen in public with any other gentleman or lady more than once as "his girl" or "her fellow." This is not only silly and childish but it is positively vulgar and often rude. I hope that others will see this as it is and stop it. IOLINE. MRS. ORME'S, MILLINERY STORE!

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS. Local. The Mascotte Phi was overthrown last week, the Signua Chis beat the Phi Gams. Athletic Notes. Howard Duncan has unpired two games for us and given good satisfaction. The Betas and Sigma Nus play this afternoon. No mistake about it this time. Come out and see them struggle, neither club has won a game, as yet, and both will accordingly play hard. On Wednesday night of Commencement week,Beta Theta Pi, Phi Delta Theta and Phi Kappa Psi will give entertainments in their respective halls. The Kappa Alpha Thetas will entertain about June 1st and the Phi Gamma Deltas will give a large party sometime during Commencement week. Boom Field day, it is time. Call a meeting, appoint committees and set them to work. Let the fraternities offer prizes. The Phi Psi. vs. Phi Delt game which has been so often postponed, will probably be played next week, or as soon as the Phi Delts wounded men recover. The benefit game played last week was a good one and ought to have drawn a better crowd. It was the first game that our nine has won, and though not exciting was well played, and towards the last quite closely contested. Some changes were made in the position of our players to evident advantage. The bases were all different, Esterly on first, Hoge-boom on second,and Harvey on third, all did good work. O. H. Campbell did remarkably well as left fielder. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MAY 13. 1887. The students were very much surprised to notice several new badges flying around the halls Thursday. Upon inquiry it was found that the "Knights of the Nunnery" had been instituted. The new fraternity includes some very promising young men and we wish their chapter unlimited success. SIGMA CHIS VS. PHI GAMS. --- In heavy batting and magnitude of runs this game has not yet been surpassed. The first inning showed clearly that the score would be large and the game close. The Phi Gams having lost Miles, Delo and Ackley, were obliged to fill out their nine with men, who, to say the least, are not expert base ballists. The Sigma Chis played together better than ever before and showed improvement from practice. Jackson, pitcher for the Phi Gams had pitched a hard game the day before, in consequence his arm was lame and the Sigs pounded him freely. The game resulted in a score of 27 to 23 in favor of the Sigma Chis. This is the first game that they have won. The Fraternities. The Sigma Chis will entertain this evening at the residence of Hon. J. D. Bowersock on Tennessee street. The I. C.'s will have a picnic tomorrow at Holliday, near Kansas City. They will be joined by Misses Nellie Dow and Nettie Hubbard, of Olathe, and Emma White, who is visiting with Miss Dow. The Phi Psis gave an informal party at their halls Friday evening. The halls have been rebuilt in better style than before and are provided with hard wood floors, very excellent for dancing, which was the chief feature of the evening. Those present were: Misses Thompson, Crotty, Page, Penfield, McCague, Agnes Love, Clendinen, Sutliff, Lizzie Wilder, Chapman, Dailey; Me>rs, Jenks, Caldwell, Brown, Taylor, Campbell, Swope, Dunn, Fearle, Brewster, Nickel, Gilmore, Spencer, Will Snow and Hutchings. Baker University has, we have recently learned, a base ball nine. This gives us another enemy to meet or be their meat, as the case may be. We suggest that Secretary Gilmore write to Baldwin at once and make arrangements for a game. Perhaps we can beat them and get our nine enticed to play Washburn again. However, Washburn must not yet claim the college championship of the State. Last Friday evening the Betas very pleasantly entertained their lady friends in their newly furnished rooms in the opera house block. Music for the occasion was furnished by the Mandolin Club. At 11 o'clock elegant refreshments were served. Toasts were responded to by H. S. Tremper, O. D. Walker and H. F. Bear, and the hall was formally dedicated to Beta Theta Pi by J. B.Lippincott. Those present were: Misses Eva Miles, Kate Wilder, May Walker, Bella Love, Bessie Root, Daisy Cockins, Emma Bartell, Ella Bartell, Louella Moore, Etta Hadley, Mamie Stimpson, Annie McKinnon, Mamie Henshaw, Helen Simpson; Messrs J. G. Stean, of Kansas City, O. D. Walker, R. W. Houk, J. B. Lippincott, C. M. Watson, B. T. Riley, F. Morris, Fred Pickering, T. F. Doran, H. F. Bear, C. W. Webster, E. F. Stimpson, W. T. Caywood, Harry Buckingham, Mr. and Mrs. H. S. Tremper. One of the most enjoyable social events of the entire season proved to be the reception given by the young ladies of Kappa Kappa Gamma to the gentlemen of Phi Delta Theta fraternity, last Saturday at the residence of Miss Laura O'Bryon, near Sibley. The merry party left Lawrence early in the afternoon, with an ample supply of all those delicacies which go to make up an elegant supper, and after a short and enjoyable ride, the beautiful grove was reached which was to be the scene of the festivities. Hammocks were hung, tennis courts laid out and other games arranged, all combining to make the afternoon as pleasant as possible. About 6:30 the party sat down to a sumptuous supper which none but Kappa Kappa Gammas know how to prepare. The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing and social conversation. At a late hour the party returned to Lawrence enlivening the way with songs and merry laughter. The reception was in every way an enjoyable one to all present and the Kappas are to be congratulated on their success. Last week was one of unusual gaiety in fraternity circles. The Betas opened their new hall with a large party. The Phi Psis gave a party and dance, and the Phi Delts were entertained at the home of Miss Laura O'Bryon, by the Kappa Kappa Gammas. No.35. The Science Club TO-DAY'S MEETING. The Science Club will, by invitation, hold its meeting to-day at the home of Mr. Joseph Savage, south of the city. Mr. Savage is one of the most prominent geologists in the State, is thoroughly interested in all scientific work and a warm friend and supporter of the University. He has a very valuable and choice geological collection which will be of great interest to the boys. Mr. Savage and his wife are hospitable, generous people and will the visit of the Science Club full of pleasure and profit. PICN1C. On Saturday last the Science Club spent the day up the river near Cameron's bluff. The party rowed up the river in boats and returned about 6 in the evening. The day was very favorable, being one that made the exercise of the oarsmen delightful and the field and wood attractive. After dinner (a feast rather) a number of the party took a botanical stroll, bringing in several rare trophies and numerous well known specimens of the Douglas county flowers, while others spent the time in analyzing plants collected as they were brought in, others again made musical instruments out of the willow, several choruses were sung with band accompaniments. The latter part of the afternoon was spent in athletic exercises, which with the rowing down the river in the evening, one would have supposed would exhaust the party, but on the contrary all seemed fresh and improved after their return. It was the general feeling upon returning that this occasion was one of the most delightful picnics ever given by the club, and the only regret was that there were not more to enjoy it with them. Subscribe for the Courier. The Seniors are "cramming" for examination. Law. The Juniors are organizing a concert chorus with Wolly as leader. The members of the law faculty are not to blame for the failure of Class Day. Prof. Green has done all in his power to pour contentment on the troubled Seniors, but his efforts have been as fruitless as were those of Mother Partington. It seems to be a settled fact that the laws will have no Class Day. The faculty first deprived them of their representative on Commencement day, and gave them Friday morning for the class exercises, and Friday night for the oration. The Seniors were dissatisfied with this and filed a plea in arrest of judgment and appealed their case. The faculty held another meeting and granted them the representative but withheld Friday night. This verdict was still unsatisfactory and looked upon by the limbs of the law as a kind of ex-parte proceeding. Finally finding that they were stopped from gaining anything further from the faculty, some wanted to accept what they had and go on with their program. Others said "we'll have all on none." They then had some little internecine troubles and heaped their forensic wrath upon each other until they have become a set of chronic kickers. They have kicked at the faculty and kicked at each other, and unless they reform they will kick at the judge and the jury, kick at the court and kick when a corpse, and when they die if they should be made angels, they will demur and file a motion to be made gods. The whole proceeding seems rather uncomplimentary to all concerned and would seem to be governed by the statute of frauds. --- The German Club held its regular meeting last Friday, despite warm weather, ball games, impending "frat" parties and all the other ills that school societies are heir too. Besides the readings of Mr. Squires and Miss Crotty, there was represented the first scene of the first act of the German play "Die Luegnerin," by Miss Mauley and Mr. Nickel-One of the chief attractions is the music, which is so good as to repay even those who do not understand German, the trouble of climbing the hill. Last week Prof. Carruth sang in his ever acceptable manner, and the instrumental music was furnished by Mr. Hair and Miss Wynne. The week before Profs. Aldrich and Carruth contributed the vocal music and Miss Atwood a piano solo. Washburn students express themselves as well pleased with the treatment which they received when their club played here. Captain Brewster said that the crowd was the least partial of any he had ever played before. Fred Barnes went home Monday, not to return. Personal. Curdy visited in Topeka Saturday and Sunday. Hutchings is enjoying a visit from his sister. Laura O'Bryon was seen in the halls Monday. The Phi Delts gave a boating party last week. Etta Hadley is slightly indisposed. Prof. Sayre went up to Topeka Monday. Postlethwaite and party were in town Tuesday. L. A. Stebbins looked through the building Tuesday. Miss Davis, of Olathe, was visiting the University Monday. Harry Valentine will spent Saturday and Sunday in Topeka. Prof. Marsh left Monday for the east where he will spend the summer. Miss Hadley received a visit from her cousin, Miss Davis, last week. Frank Leonard, of Severance, was visiting Prof. (?) Ed Franklin Monday. J. R. McKeever, an old student, looked over the University and shook hands with the boys Monday. Ed Davis came up from Ottawa Wednesday for a visit with his brother Jep. W. A. Jackson goes to Topeka tomorrow afternoon to spend Saturday and Sunday with Dent Hogeboom. Ed Franklin cut his lip quite severely while playing ball last Wednesday, by running against a post. James Noble, of McPherson, was visiting the McPherson boys Tuesday. Prof. Morrill will deliver his lecture on "Richard Wagner" Tuesday evening. Prof. A. G. Canfield will read a paper before the Unity Club tonight entitled "An Old French Poem." Miss Margaret Botkin, who has been visiting Gussie Price, the last week, left for her home in Omaha, Wednesday. A. W. Hill, of Vinland, a graduate of '82, visited the University Wednesday. Prof. Morrill, of Bethany College, will lecture next Tuesday night on Richard Wagner. Misses Wright and Oliver returned Tuesday from Olathe, where they spent Saturday and Sunday as guests of Miss Nellie Dow. Stuart Henry recently delivered a lecture on "Germany" before the Y. M.C.A., of Denver. His effort is highly praised by the Denver papers. Buy a Straw Hat of Abe Levy. Go to Grosscup's for Ice Cream and Confectionerv. THE WEEKLY UNIVERSITY COURIER.

We extend our congratulations to Mr. Campbell, of Baker University. He has the honor of giving Kansas the highest position she has yet received in any Inter-State contest. Third place is a pretty good one and Mr. Campbell did well to get it. We must go higher yet, but that is for the future. King of the Plain. Hear ye the song that the farmer is singing. As gayly he scatters the seed o'er the plain, "These are the talents I gave to my servants; They will increase them and bring me the grain. Lord of the prairies, I rule the broad acres, Counting as vassals the sunshine and rains, Powers unconquered confess my dominion; Kingdoms unbounded are in my domain. Stately and grand are the walls of my palace. Crowded my coffers with earth's richest hoard: Plenty and comfort recline at my banquet. Servants unbidden replenish the board. Nature surrounding refugient in beauty, What can his heart know of sorrow or pain? Who would not leave the cramped walls of the city To rule the broad acres, proud king of the plain? Two Lectures During the past week two excellent lectures have been delivered in the University chapel, and both were well attended and highly enjoyed. It is a source of pleasure and profit to hear such men as Dr.Wallace and Rabbi Krauskopf,and we wish that our lecture committee might secure more of the same kind. DR. WALLACE. Alfred Russell Wallace, who lectured last Friday evening, is said to be the most eminent naturalist living. He is an elderly man and with his long white hair and beard has a venerable appearance. He seems, however, to be in robust health with faculties unimpaired and his voice, though he spoke in an ordinary conversational tone, was distinctly audible throughout the hall. Dr. Wallace lectures on the "Use of Color in Animals and Mimicry in Animals." He showed that color was used for defense and protection, for recognition, for warning and then that these warning colors were oftem mimicked by animals, perfectly harmless themselves, in order to secure the protection which poisonous and dangerous insects and animals enjoy. The lecture showed that the females in most species are of duller color and less brilliant hues than their mates, for this he gave as a reason that they were in need of greater protection, since with them is the care of the nest. The magic lantern was used and all the points were well illustrated. Joseph Krauskopf, of Kansas City, lectured Tuesday evening on "Man's Greatest Enemy—Man." The lecturer stated the way in which the pessimist looks at this life, and while there may be some truth in his statements, yet on the whole there is more of joy than of sorrow, more sunshine than shadow. Yet whence comes evil and suffering? Many have been the answers to this question and many have been erroneous. The Rabbi believes that suffering does not come from God. On the contrary it is God's plan that man should be happy. He has constructed every thing with that purpose in view. It is idle to talk of the good influences of suffering, for the body RABBI KRAUSKOPF. is the temple of the soul, and the purer, stronger and better the temple, the purer, stronger and better will be the soul which dwells within. History proves that the most powerful, the wisest and best men have, as a rule, been men of robust health and good physique. Suffering comes from the ignorance and folly of man, who willfully and heedless of consequences, transgresses the laws which God has established for his guidance. In view of this it is foolish and weak to say that suffering comes from God or from a God-Devil. The Rabbi opposed strongly this idea of a God-Devil and believed that its supposed existence had done much injury to the cause of religion. He believed that the day was coming when the laws of health and hygeine would receive more careful attention, and he pictured vividly the resultar benefits. While we may not agree with the Rabbi in all that he said, we cannot but believe that his lecture will be productive of much good to those that heard it, as it furnished materials for much thought, which should lead to more careful action in many ways. Life Among the Irish. EDITOR COURIER:—It is not to record the travels of a sinner that I take up my pen to-day, but to try and give the Courier readers a faint idea of what life is for a poor man on the very outer edge of civilization. And yet I can hardly call this country the outer edge of civilization either, it is a strange admixture of the wealth and culture of civilization with the real pioneer life. In the course of a five-mile ride one may leave a thickly populated district and go into bleak sand hills where the plow has hardly turned the sod, where dug-outs and sod cabins are the rule, not the exception, where grim poverty holds absolute sway. I am in the central part of Greeley county, in central Nebraska, yet I might be much farther away and yet "nearer home," as no railroad yet runs through the county. In physical appearance the country does not differ much from Kansas, rolling prairies and low hills with broad fertile valleys. The country is much rougher than in Kansas, or rather the hills are closer together and steeper. I miss trees much more than anything else. Not a shade tree, not a fruit tree, not a forest tree in the county, and strange as it may seem, the farmers are planting none. Stones don't "grow" here either, not a stone or pebble have I seen. Now, however, the country is very pretty, being covered with the bright green grass of early spring, with myriads of wild flowers on the prairie. Were it not for the constant winds, life would be very pleasant, but man cannot enjoy a country where a great part of the soil has not settled down. There who have been in a sod Those who have been in a sod house over night can fully appreciate my feelings when I first got here and was being broken into life in such a primitive form. The first one of these houses I stopped at made a very vivid impression on me. After a rather noisy salute from a regiment of dogs, we put away our horses and went in to supper. The house which was not large (ten feet by twelve) had but one room. The furniture consisted of a bunk, or rather double bunk, built in one corner where the family slept; a cook stove which might have served Noah if I may judge from its ancient appearance; a wooden table built at one side with a closet underneath it; two benches, three chairs, a locker and a clock. At supper I got to see the family, a couple of men of the ordinary type of poor farmers, a woman who might have been tolerably good looking once, but who had lost all the comliness she ever had through hard work and hard fare; an indefinite number of young ones with tow heads and blear eyes, and last but not least, nine dogs of all colors, breeds and kinds of ugliness. These all assembled around the festive board, the men and dogs taking precedence of women and children. Our fare was (of course) poor bread, salt pork and "bean coffee", a decoction closely related to "slumgullion" as described by Mark Twain. It seems strange that human beings can live under such circumstances; a mere hole in the ground, damp and without light is home; no sufficient nourishment to support a life of hard labor such as they must live; none of the luxuries of life ever enter such a home. The lot of the woman is hardest of all, as upon her falls not only all the house work, but also a large part of the out door "light work," such as plowing, caring for the stock and such duties. Yet this home is but one of many hundred in central Nebraska; these people were well to do as compared with many others here in this county After supper "mine host' brought out an old wheezy disreputable accordeon and entertained us for an hour or so with the melodies of Vaterland. He is the only German I have met this far north, and of course he could not let the occasion slip by without giving us all the national airs of Germany. Finally, the concert over, we adjourned to the oat bin to get as much sleep as could be found, which was not much, as it rained all night and an oat bin in a sod barn is not the most desirable bed a man could find. Next morning we left after having paid a good price for our lodging and we all solemnly swore we would leave the sod houses alone thereafter. It seems rather peculiar to one accustomed to the use of milk to find these natives living in absolute want of it and not using that which they have. All these farmers have cows, yet very few of them use milk or butter. Whether this is to be accounted for as due to ignorance or laziness, I am unable to guess. This state of affairs must necessarily soon change. The B. & M. is grading its line through the county from south to north, the Northwestern will run across it from east to west. Already Greeley Center is booming; a "city" of seven buildings a month ago, it now bids fair to be a town of some magnitude. Three banks, two hotels, six or eight stores and a saloon are now under way. It already has one newspaper, but one is not enough, so another aspirant for editorial honors is on the ground. Really it seems as if Greeley Center is destined to be a town of some importance. It lies in a good farming country, is at the junction of the main line and the third branch of the B. & M., and above all its people are pushing, active, energetic, young business men who will work together to build up the city and county of their choice. Such are the men who drive out the coyote and antelope and bring in civilization. It is the young intelligent men who can make an empire out of a wilderness. R. E. HENRY. Field Day. It is time that our athletes begin to work up this feature of Commencement week, if it is to be a success, or if we are to have it at all. And there is no reason why we should not, we have plenty of good men who will enter and make close contests for the prizes which may be offered. Field Days in the past have, as a rule, been quite successful and very interesting, and there is no reason why a good active committee could not get up a better one this year than ever before. We ought to have one, they are always attractive, they awaken and strengthen interest in athletic sports, and they are permanent features of Commencement week in many of our best and most enterprising colleges. Let a meeting be held at once, a committee appointed to secure prizes and arrange the program for the day. We would suggest also that the various fraternities offer prizes, this is no more than they ought to do, in consideration for the liberal patronage which the students have given their ball games. --- Old President McCosh, of Princeton, has been contriving to keep his name before the people for the last year. He began last year and made a goat of himself by withdrawing from the Harvard anniversary ceremony in high dudgeon because his little school was not too flatteringly mentioned by O. W. Holmes, in a poem; then he attempted to drive out fraternities from Princeton; pretty soon when he saw that his childish whining about Harvard drew forth the contempt and not the sympathy of the people, he was profuse in his apologies, and now his latest fantastic break is to stop Inter-Collegiate athletic contests. Poor old McCosh, he has been hanging on the tail of progress for the last quarter of a century, bracing his feet against cobble stones and rubbish of the past and occasionally brawling himself into notice when his moss-covered braces fail him. --- EDITOR COURIER :—The University is dependent almost altogether on the high schools cf the state for preparation of students. But there are less than half a dozen high schools in the state that prepare students in the study of foreign language; and students from the majority of high schools, entering the University, are forced to spend much more than half their time on the study of foreign language. This must necessarily keep many from entering the University. Undoubtedly the study of foreign language should enter more largely into high schools, but should not we have a course requiring less? I would like to see this discussed. Ca 23 Carmean & Harbaugh's Livery Turnouts are the finest in the city.

College World. THE INTER-STATE CONTEST. The only college paper that has reached us as yet containing an account of this contest, is the Illini. If we were to form a judgment from its report we should say that the contest was pretty "rocky" and much below the average. But we think that the Illini has, for the purpose of being funny, indulged a little too freely in sarcastic and caustic remarks. It dishes up the various contestants in a pretty severe manner and has very little good to say about any of them. Some of its criticism though harsh, are perhaps well enough, but many of them are undignified and unworthy the public utterance of any gentleman. For instance it says of Mr. House, the representative from Nebraska: "His voice was high and weak, his hand hung like the tail of a fish out of water. Ungraceful and ill-fitted by his tail, it was a task to look at him." Such utterances are undignified, mean and are a disgrace to their author. Our own representative has rather the best notice given Of him it says: "Phil Campbell, of Baker University, Kansas, spoke on What of the Republic." His voice, of good power, made a relief to the ear. Though not too precise in pronunciation, he spoke clearly and pleasantly, keeping the favor of the audience by his fine climaxes and antitheses. These oratorical beauties were partly nullified by a disconnected manner of treatment. After his twenty-minute speech his lady friends gave him a boquet. Illinois won first place, Indiana second, Kansas third, Minnesota fourth, Wisconsin fifth, Ohio sixth, Colorado seventh, Iowa eighth, Nebraska ninth If there is one thing which the southern colleges are particularly noted for it is for producing an inferior lot of college journals. Not over a dozen respectable publications are issued by college students south of Mason and Dixon's line. At the head of these few and second-to-none-student paper in the country, stands the University Magazine, printed at Raleigh, N.C. Its literary department is well filled, its editorials are well written and its exchange column the best we have seen for many a week. A slight error occurred in its write up of the great colleges of the country, in crediting K. S. U. with but 200 students. We have 500, Mr. Exchange Editor, and the finest Natural History collection west of the Allegahnies. Please correct this and receive the right hand of fellowship from the Kansas State University. A little paper,called, if we remember aright, the Westminister Review, published at some second rate academy or other,down near Sedalia, Mo., criticises us for publishing too much home news and being too local.When we get to publishing a paper for North America and the rest of the solar system we will try to please everybody and will put in something to amuse the papers who dead-head about 200 of our papers for exchanges, but until then we will publish a sheet to please bona fida subscribers only.

V. UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MAY 20. 1887. Local. Athletic Notes. BETA VS. SIGMA NU. The game between the Betas and Sigma Nus was perhaps the nest played and most interesting game of the series so far. The Betas took the lead and kept it for some time, but the Sigma Nus gained on them until at the beginning of the seventh inning the score stood 8 to 10 in favor of the Betas. In the seventh the Betas did not score, while the Sigma Nus made three runs, thus giving them the game. The Sigma Nus changed pitcheres three times during the game, Gillespie, Simmons and Phillips taking turns. Phillips did the most effective work in the box and the Betas hit him very few times. Smith and Caywood in the diamond and Watson at the bat, did the best work for the Betas. Smith's work on first was excellent. Runs were made as follows: Sigma Nus, Runs, Campbell, c. 1 Simmons, c f. 1 Harrington, ss. 1 Sears, 1b Phillips, p and 2b. 3 Harris, 3b. 1 Arklet, 1f. 1 Gillespie, p. 2 Keyes, if. 0 Total . 11 Betas, . . . . . The Fraternity League Seven games of ball are still left to play and if the captains of the different clubs do not commence to "push" the games, the pennant will remain undecided at the end of the year. It is time to go to work and play two games every week. Phi Kappa Psi vs. Sigma Nu this afternoon. A strong game is expected. The Phi Psis have not lost a game yet, and the Sigma Nus are just in the flush of recent victory and are stronger than ever before. Last Friday evening the Sigma Chis entertained their lady friends at their newly furnished hall in the opera house block. Music for the dancing was furnished by the Mandolin Club. The banquet was served by Grossecup, at which toasts were proposed and responded to as follows: The Fraternities The rain made it impossible for the I. C.'s to hold their picnic at Holliday they had planned. The Phi Peis gave an informal party in their halls last Friday evening. Thirteen couples were present and the time was very pleasantly spent with card playing, dancing and music. Invitations are out for a large party to be given by Kappa Chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta, at the residence of J. A. Dailey on June 1st. This party has become an annual occurrence with the Kappa Alpha Thetas and is one of the leading social events of the year. "The University," response by R. L. McAlpine; "The Ladies," response by J. W. Roberts. The following were present: Misses Kate Wilder, Luella Moore, Emma Bartell, Sidney Dailey, Eva Howe, Etta Hadley, Birdie Atwood, Lillie Turner, Gussie Price; Messrs. McAlpine, Pentzer, Jus Bowersock, Smith, Roberts, Brown, Kroh, Butler, Bowersock. Athenaeum This booming young society held its regular meeting last Friday in its hall in the south wing of the building. To-day it will present its last program for this school year. The Athenaeum is to be congratulated upon the success with which it has met since its founding. Its members are active and energetic students and will no doubt do all in their power to make Oread's successor take the high literary position which Oread formerly held. Attend the meeting this afternoon and encourage the boys in their worthy efforts. Law. There were no recitations Monday and Tuesday on account of the professors being engaged in the District Court. No more moot court this year. J. B. Harris took advantage of the vacation by having a two day's "bum" in Kansas City. It is rumored that John L. Sullivan is going to give up the law and go to preaching, which would, no doubt, be a commendable change, for it is generally conceded that a reformed lawyer makes a good preacher, as he knows so well how to fight the devil with his own weapons. During our two day's vacation many of the L. L. B. aspirants have sat in the court room listening to the effusions of wit, pathos, humor, sarcasm, irony and billingsgate, and dreaming of the time when they too should become great and write "Hon." before their names and "Esq." after them, and ride in a Pullman car, and finally reach the top of the ladder of ambition, and occupy the "top story of the temple of fame" and be a candidate for squire or alderman. It is a shame and a disgrace that the Senior Laws cannot lay aside their petty animosities, stop their bickering and wrangling and furnish a program, an honor to themselfs and the department they represent. After quarrelling and contending with the faculty to obtain a suitable night they have finally quarreled among themselves, have thrown up the sponge and the result is we probably will not have the pleasure of listening to productions from their fertile brains. They have all filed a demur and will argue the point at some future time. Boys brace up. The Freshman chemistry class had no laboratory work this week. Base ball spirit is not noticed much now on account of the near approach of examinations. A snake crawled out of Prof. Snow's pocket in the botany class Wednesday and created a commotion among the embryo scientists. No.36. The Episcopalian social last Tuesday night was a success. The ice cream and strawberries that the K. S. U. boys paid for will rob the huck men of their profits for the rest of the year. The students are organizing for the purpose of boycotting. If, when they return next September, they find no sidewalk laid down Adams street from Tennessee to Massachusetts street, they will boycott every member of the city council whom they are capable of painting in any way by this course. The lecture Tuesday evening drew a fair sized audience. Prof. Morrill, of Bethany College, was the lecturer; his subject, "Richard Wagner." The lecture was quite interesting. The changes which Wagner introduced were discussed. Profs. Aldrich and McDonald assisted in illustrating the lecture by the rendition of Taunhauser and Tohengrim. The program of the German Club last Friday was up to its usual high standard. It consisted of a declaration by Mie's Henshaw, an interesting reading by Mr. Finney. Prof. A. G. Canfield told one of the quaint legends which make the German folk-love so charming. The garden scene between Faust and Gretchen, was very naturally rendered by Mr. Nickle and Miss Crotty. Miss Manley furnished the vocal music. The Track of the Storm. The base ball season has been filled with interest and arnica. Up to the present some eight or ten games have been played in the Inter-Fraternity League, and every club but two has been beaten at least once. The pennant will fall to the Phi Delts or Phi Psis, with the chances in favor of the Phi Psis. It seems as if something more substantial than a pennant should be given to the winning club when such hard playing is required. German Opera in Lawrence. --- It is not often that a German opera comes this way but we are to be favored with one to-night. In the eastern cities when one is announced the people turn out in large numbers. Connoisseurs in the cities all pronounce the Thalia Opera Company, the best on the road at present. The company has a well trained chorus of forty voices, and it goes without saying that Millocker's Berggar Student is one of the most melodious light operas ever presented to the public. So we congratulate ourselves on the opportunity we will have to-night of hearing this company. Personal. Emma Doran will visit her brother er soon. Finney is a base ball invalid now. Wheeler was seen wearing his pin this week. W. E. Borah will attend Orophilian reception. Mrs. Sallie Stocks will attend Commencement. Miss Stella Overton will attend Commencement.

Crowell has had full charge of the Courier this week, all those demanding retraction should call on him for satisfaction. Albert Fellows, formerly of '87, visited K. S. U. Wednesday, having just returned from dental college at Philadelphia, where he graduated with high honors. Dr. Henry B. Ridgeway, president of the Garrett Biblical Institute, and one of the most eminent divines in the west, will deliver the Baccalaureate sermon.

A New Academy Lawrence is about to have inaugurated in her midst an academy which will not be excelled in the United States for the thoroughness of its course, the competence of its professors, and the support of capital which is so essential in establishing an institution of this kind. The intention is to change the Lawrence Business College into this sort of an institution and to place it on a thorough academic basis. Mr. Mellray, the president of the present college has been conferring with scene of our leading business men and educators and has gained their hearty support. Among those most interested in the project are: Dr. Marvin, Hon. Chas. Robinson, Hon. W. W. Nevison, Hon. S. A. Riggs, Hon. Learnard and others. Dr. Marvin will probably accept the presidency of the institution and with his great experience as an educator will undoubtedly, prove a success. The curriculum will be of such a high standard so as to admit a graduate as a regular student into the Freshman class of any institution of learnin in the United States. The business department will still be run in connection with the Academy and it will also be increased in its efficiency and standard. What Phillips Exter Academy at Andover, Mass., is to Harvard and Yale, likewise this institution will be the stepping stone to a course in the University of Kansas or some of the other large colleges and Universities in the United States. With not a single high school or academy in the State of Kansas which thoroughly prepares a student in all branches to enter our Freshman class, this is a step which has been long desired and a consummation devoutly to be wished. The old University building which is now vacant, will probably be secured and the Athens of Kansas, will, although not securing nine third class preparatory colleges as one of her neighbors claims, again strengthens her hold on the name of being the educational center of the west. Below we give the grades of the judges in the Inter-State Oratorical Contest held at Bloomington, Ill The judges on thought and composition were Rev. Brooks, of Boston, Senator Hawley, of Connecticut, and Governor Foraker, of Ohio. On dedelivery, Hon. Brigham, of Iowa, Hon. C. D. Smith, of Missouri, and Hon. Powell, of Floomington, marked the imperfection of speech and ars dicendi of the various speakers. The last named gentleman was chosen to fill the place of Hon. George R. Wendling, who failed to arrive. The grades show that Mr. Campbell, of Kansas, was second on the first ranking and second on grand average, and had the best general average on delivery. But by the system of grading adopted by the association, Kansas received third place. This position is the highest ever attained by a Kansas orator and Mr. Campbell and Baker are to be congratulated. Mr. Campbell was elected president of the association for the next year, and Greencastle, Ind., was chosen as the place for the next contest. The following are the grades: Program for Commencement Week. May 31, Tuesday 8 p.m., Commencement Concert, Department of Music. June 2, Thursday 8 p. m., Prize Contest in Oratory—Contestants, C. L.

It is said that there are at present being erected, or preparations being made to erect over seventy colleges in the State of Kansas. These seventy colleges, the greater part of them probably no better than common high schools, will all claim the right to confer degrees equal in rank to those conferred by the best colleges in the United States. There are at present in the State of Kansas eight first class colleges, the State University, Washburn College, Baker University, Emporia College, Emporia Normal School, Ottawa University, State Agricultural College and Bethany College, and they are enough to supply the demands for years to come. It is doubtful whether the State is capable of supporting a population so great that these eight colleges could not provide all educational facilities needed. Every --new college established, tends to the deterioration of the colleges already founded. There can never be a great educational institution built up in Kansas, so long as the church organizations are continually erecting small and unneeded institutions. O, when will the churches of Kansas acquire a little common sense. Prof. Sayre entertained the Pharmacy classes last Thursday evening, at which time he took occasion to open a case of specimens of crude drugs, such as are in use in London and the leading foreign colleges for the examination of candidates for Major degree in Pharmacy, for the Senior class to recognize. The Junior class also was invited into a separate room under the care of Dr. Moore and Mr. Franklin who superintended the examination of the Juniors in liquids, pharmaceutical preparations—furnished for the occasion by Mr. George Leis.The evening was pleasantly passed and was very enjoyable, notwithstanding the ordeal of examination. Several friends of the department together with the faculty were present to take part in the collation served later in the evening. This plan of examination is very acceptable to the Pharmacy boys and undoubtedly would be well received by the students in other departments. The May number of the Quarterly from New York University has been received. It contains nothing particularly interesting, and is not at all what a person would naturally expect of the students of such a University, taking into consideration at the same time that it is issued only every three months. "A Study in Picture Writing" contains a few cuts which reminds one very forcibly of the corner of the Illini, and it undoubtedly contains the worst chestnuts in the shape of college news we have ever seen in any magazine. The committee on buildings and grounds, Judge Otis, Chas. Gleed and Dr. Lippincott, held a meeting on Tuesday for the purpose of making improvements and considering the work already accomplished. During the summer, after the moving of the engine house, the intervening space between the main building and Snow hall will be sodded, and laid off with walks, flower beds, etc. There will also be a paved drive encircling Snow Hall, all which will add to the looks and beauty of our campus. It has been said that a full pledged elocutionist will be procured to fill the position made vacant by the resignation of Prof. Brownell. For heaven's sake don't burden us with a railing elocutionist of the stagy, dramatic type. Probably it will be hard to find one who will be so universally liked and respected by the students as has been Prof. Brownell, but we will try to be satisfied with anyone excepting the so-called "elocationist." The Hon. Noble L. Prentis, formerly of the Atchison Champion, will deliver the address before the literary societies. Mr. Prentis is one of the most successful, talented and proficient editors and orators in the west and our students and visitors will undoubtedly be favored with one of the best addresses ever delivered in the University. The Review man is getting to be quite a literary man. His latest break is to assume the eye glass of a critic. He pitches in to Mr. Howell with a vigor which reminds one strangely of a debilitated cat snarling at an elephant. Poor old Review, a good dose of arsenic would doubtless put an end to its misery. --- The Junior Greek class takes pride in having accomplished as much, if not more work than any other class in one term in the University. Besides finishing its regular course in translation of Homer, it has pursued a course in Greek Archaeology, has made a thorough study of the Homeric question by Jebb, and also has been engaged in special work in the Theology, Theogony, similes and epithets of that author Prof. Wilcox is to be congratulated in the advancement he has made in our course in Greek. The second annual meeting of the American Economic Association will be held in Boston, May 21-25. The American Historical will join with them in this meeting. General Walker is president of the Economic and Prof. Winser of the Historical Association On Tuesday, the 24th, the committee on Trade will report on "condition and organization of retail trade." Prof.J.H.Canfield is chairman of this committee and the report which will be submitted was prepared chiefly by him. It is very interesting to the student of economics, and contains much information of value to the business man. According to the catalogue, the final examinations begin on Monday, the 30th of May, but according to announcement they will not begin until Tuesday, May 31st. On all former years the examinations began on Monday, but this year, it was decided to postpone the examinations for one day so as to allow every one to attend the exercises on Decoration day. It is to be hoped that the students instead of engaging in some other pursuit on that day, or cramming for the succeeding day, will take part in the exercises and show an appreciation of the favor granted them by the faculty. One thing is wanting to make the Department of Natural History equal to any in the United States. With undoubtedly the finest and best equipped building west of the Alleghaney, and with a man at the head of the institution who has no equal in the United States and has no peer in the west, it is a shame that we have no green-house, which is possessed by every first class college, to expedite the study of the botanical kingdom and arouse more interest in the study of botany. This would also be a great source of beauty to our campus, and we already have a skilled gardener and florist, Mr. James Meers, who would undoubtedly make an institution of that kind a success. Carmean & Harbaugh's Livery Turnouts are the finest in the city.

We desire to return our thanks to the Washburn Reporter for the extraordinary amount of space allotted to the Courier in the last issue of that worthy weekly. We have not a Courier of the issue referred to, at hand for reference, and consequently cannot answer your editorial as we might otherwise do. We will say this much, however, no matter what the temporary exchange editor might have said in any previous issue of the Courier, we will say that as a college paper, the Reporter is a credit to its editors as well as to Washburn, which it represents so well. We know the business managers to be "rustlers" in every sense of the word. We are also so fortunate as to be acquainted with the genial journalist of no little note, and with even these three as members of the staff we have no doubts at all as to the success of the Reporter, in fact its success was insured with the first issue. We felt called upon, however, to correct your error as to our diet. Although we board in a club, our bill of fare has never been such as to justify you in styling us the "fire cater" of the Courier, besides it is rather late in the season for this article of food. Would you kindly mention the parties in your next issue who were so fortunate as to enter the Freshman class of K. S. U. from the second year Preparatory at Washburn. In closing, we will say that we can hardly blame you for congratulating yourselves on being "hampered by no fraternities," which are invariably sadly detrimental to all college projects of every description and under whose sway no college enterprise of any kind can hope to prove as successful as they might otherwise do, were they not shackled and embarrassed by these evils, existing as they do, in all our principal colleges throughout the land, and which are the source of more quarrels and discord in our college life than all others combined. How is this for a criticism of the Kansas Churchman appearing in a late issue of the American Orange-man, published at Washington D. C.: Kansas, the garden of the west, covering 81,700 square miles of territory, proud in her possession of 52,281,000 acres of land, the home of upwards of 1,000,000 persons, principally Americans, ably represented in the halls of Congress by the intelligent Ingalls, the patriotic Plumb, the frank Funston, the popular Perkins, the reverend Ryan, the affable Anderson, the honored Hanback, and the practical Peters, the State made beautiful and prosperous by the sons and daughters of New England, maintaining thousands of public schools and evangelical churches, where American principles and true Christianity in their entirety are inculcated into the minds of the rising generation, and 593 newspapers having a tendency to educate her people and develop her resources, is nesting a viper which, although young and powerless, casts a blight on her fair fame—we refer to the combination of mixed type, poor composition, bad ink, and rotten paper, the Kansas Catholic, conducted by one John O'Flanagan, an importation from that part of Ireland where the ignorant tools of an Italian pope live in idleness and crime.

Athletic Notes. ter for the prizes on Field Day, there is surely some event on the program in which you can hope to be successful. Hickey seems to be the favorite umpire. He has umpired the last three fraternity games and has always been fair and just. Taylor and Jackson will pitch for the University Club in its Saturday game with the Shawnees. A close and interesting game is expected. The Shawnees are not novices and our team is stronger than ever before. This is the standing of the league climbs: Games Games Games pi dvid. won lost. Beta Theta Pl. 4 0 3 Phi Kappa 'ai 3 3 4 Phi Delta Theta 3 3 0 Phi Gamma Delta 3 2 1 Sigma Chi .li 3 1 2 Sigma Nu .ni 3 1 2 Friday's game will decide. To-morrow (Saturday) afternoon, the Shawnee Club of the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium will play a match game with the K. S. U. nine. This Club is a strong one and plays an excellent game. Haydn and Mulvane, who attended the University during the winter, play with the Shawnees. In their last game with Washburn one of their pitchers struck out fourteen batters. Those who are fond of fine ball tossing will be well repaid in attending this game. THIS AFTERNOON Will be played the game which decides the pennant. It is conceded that it must go either to the Ph Delts or Phi Psis. Both of these clubs have the same standing, three games won and none lost. They are of about equal strength and it is impossible to tell from previous games which is really the stronger. The Phi Psis only beat the Betas by one run, while the Phi Delts beat the same club nearly three to one. The Sigma Chis and Phi Delts played a pretty even game and the Phi Psis beat the Sigs three to one. Thus it is fair to conclude that the game will be a close one and it is sure that it will be closely contested. PHI KAPPA PSI VS. SIGMA NU. This game was a good one and was well contested by both sides. The Sigma Nus lead off with four runs in the first against one run for the Phi Pis. These four were largely the result of the catcher's errors. The Sigma Nus did not score again until the seventh inning, when they made their last run. In the fourth the Phi Pis took the lead and kept it. F. C. Campbell, Sigma Nu, played almost faultlessly behind the bat. He did not have a passed ball during the whole game and his throwing to bases was excellent. The Phi Pis infield all played well. Taylor pitched better than in any previous game, very few of his balls No.37 were knocked outside of the diamond. Prescott, second baseman, played remarkably well. During the fourth inning the Sigma Nus' basemen made a number of e.xors, aside from this their playing was close and careful. Taylor struck out seven batters, Phillips three. Runs were viz: Phi Pls.

PHI DELTS. The enormous number of runs (more than in any previous game) was the chief feature of this game. The Phi Delts had the unparalleled audacity to make eight in the first inning and they continued similarly throughout the game. Jep Davis did some terrific batting. It seemed impossible for him to make less than a two bagger. George Lewis played a fine game on first. F. H. tellogg was taken sick and was obliged to quit after the first inning. Plumb filled out the nine and Finney played short. Lippincott did some good work in the box but was poorly supported. The Betas did a great deal of muffling and much wild throwing, Morris made a neat foul catch. A close game was expected but the score will show how the crowd was disappointed. The Phi Delts have won three games and will play for the pennant to-day. The score was as follows: Betas. Runs. Phil Delts. Runs.

Dr. Summerfield was unable to meet his class a part of this week on account of sickness. The examinations are to be written this year instead of oral,as they were last year. They will begin next Monday and embrace ten questions on each of eighteen separate branches. Jno. L. Sullivan expects to spend next year in finishing his legal education at Yale Law School. The Annual Meeting of the Science Club The University Science Club holds an annual meeting at the close of the spring term, at which the program consists entirely of original work done by the members in the various fields of scientific research. The date for this year's meeting was May 27, but the meeting has been postponed for one week and will take place next Friday afternoon, June 3, at 3 p.m. The program committee has already received the following titles of papers and more are expected: On the duration of Color Impressions upon the Retina, Robert McAlpine; On the "Loco" Weed, L. E. Savre; On the Electromotive force due to Magnetisation, E. L. Nichols and W. S. Franklin; On the Ottawa Platinum Mine, E. H. S. Bailey; Tests of the Sense of Taste, E. H. S. Bailey and E.'L. Nichols; On the Expansion Curve of Beeswax, Clarence E. Springer; Some Analyses of Dover's Powders L. E. Sayre; Systems of Sanitation (with especial reference *' the needs of Lawrence) Robert McAlpine; Characteristic Curves of Authorship, E. L. Nichols. The First Gun. Of Commencement week will be fired next Tuesday evening. The Department of Music will give its annual Commencement concert in the chapel. For some time past preparations for this concert have occupied the time of the musical students and the public can expect something of more than usual merit. This will be the last concert of the year and a large audience should be in attendance. THURSDAY. Thursday evening the contest in declamation comes off. Lots were drawn and the following is the order resulting: R. E. Kroh, "The Nineteenth Century;" Fred Bowersock, "Let the Cup Pass Away;" Miss Nellie Palmer, "Charles Sumner;" H. F. M. Bear, "Liberties Lost are Never Regained;" N. A. Ayers, "The New South;" Julius M. Liepman, "Heroes of the land of Penn;" W. W. Davis, "Horace Greely." FRIDAY. The Orophilians will give their annual entertainment one week from to-night. Mrs. Carruth will entertain the members of the German Club at a tea party Saturday afternoon. The party is given in honor of Miss Mamie Manly. . . Ask Kellogg and Glasgow how many ties there are on the railroad between here and Lake View. Graduation Recital Among the requirements for graduation from the musical department is that each candidate shall render publicly a full concert program. Tuesday evening Miss Mable Gore, the first to graduate from the department since its permanent establishment, presented such a program. She was assisted by Miss Josie Hutchings,soprano and Prof. McDonald, pianist. It is needless to speak of the proficiency which Miss Gore has attained, for her reputation as a thoroughly accomplished pianist is fully established both among the students and in the city. Ever since the University began to give its concerts Miss Gore has been well known as one of the chief participants, and her skillful and beautiful rendition of many complicated and difficult pieces has delighted the large audiences. Miss Gore, as a musician stands in the very front rank and her recital Tuesday evening was a remarkable exhibition of musical skill. The pieces were selected from the works of Chopin, Rubenstein, Beethover, Schumann and Listz, and were all exceedingly difficult. The audience seemed especial y to appreciate the renditions of Beethoven's "Senata Appassionata" and of Listz's "Polonaise No. 2 in E." Miss Hutchings as usual, delighted the audience. After she had sung with great clearness and beauty "The Cradle Song." and "Burst Ye Apple Buds," the applause broke forth spontaneously and was continued into an encore. The recital was throughout a great success and was pronounced by many to be the finest yet given. It was gratifying to see what a large audience had assembled to do honor to Miss Gore. The University certainly has a right to feel proud of its first musical graduate and the department which she represents. GERMAN CLUB. This Club will present a German play to-night in the Turner hall. All who are interested in German are invited to be present. No admission will be charged. Messrs. Nickel, Finney, Esterly, Leipman and Higgins, and Misses Manly, Sutliff and McKinnon will takethe leading parts. The play is entitled "Die Luegnerin." Mrs. E. F. Caldwell tendered the members of Phi Delta Theta a reception last Wednesday evening. The evening was enjoyably spent in various amusements. Elegant refreshments were served, of the appreciation of which it is needless to speak. The Phi Delts report a royal good time and are heartily grateful to Mrs. Caldwell for her kindness. The German play by the German Club this evening will be one of the best entertainments of the year. Every student will be present—who so desires. --- Personal. Nell Dow returned to Ottawa Saturday.

Flowers and presents of any kind must not be presented publicly in the chapel. The first enforcement of the rule came last Tuesday evening. The rule is a good one and meets universal approbation. Next week will be the last one left for work. Examinations will occupy a good share of the attention of most students, and they will in all probability be more severe than usual. But those who are to participate in Commencement exercises ought to make good use of the week and practice constantly. Much practice, systematic and persistent practice on orations, debates and declamations will do more than anything else towards making Commencement a success. There will be no great attraction, like Bayard this year, yet the exercises promise to be good all the way through. There will be a great many visitors in attendance, judging from all present indications. The alumni will be here in greater strength than ever before. Those who take part in the various exercises are the ones who will give the visitors an impression of the University and show them the kind of work we are doing. It is the duty then of all the various speakers to make the most of the opportunity offered and give their best efforts to the part which they will play. To do this hard work is necessary. Let the next week be full of such work and then there will be time enough for rest and enjoyment in the succeeding week. Next year we must have a base ball nine that will win some games. We are not finding any fault with the present club. It is a good one and we have yet to see the nine (outside of professional clubs) that can do better fielding. The only trouble is that we have no first class pitcher. Without a good pitcher, a nine, under the present rules, is of little force, no matter how good its other players are. We ought to make an effort to secure one for our club for next year's games. Prof. Carruth makes a good suggestion to the effect that one of our players who will attend next year be chosen captain before the close of the present year, so that when he returns in the fall he can go to work immediately and organize the nine. This suggestion should be acted upon at once. Let some good player be chosen, one who understands the game and has in addition plenty of executive ability and great capacity as a "rustler." This is the man that is needed. Not necessairy the best player in school, but the best player who is at the same time the best organizer. After this an attempt should be made to secure a pitcher. Urge some one to attend the University, use every honest means to get one into the University. If we are to have a nine we want it to win some games and not be beaten by any and every club that it plays with. Let the base ballists give this their immediate attention. The fraternity league will in a short time have finished its games and awarded the pennant. Has it been a good thing? We think that it has. It has furnished not only to the fifty-four men in the various clubs but to every student, an opportunity for out door recreation and exercise. For all the clubs have been willing and anxious to have all outsiders who wished, practice with them. This alone is a great benefit. Then the various fraternities have, we believe, been brought into better relations with each other, for friendly feeling and not hostility has characterized the games. The courtesies which have been extended clearly index this feeling. New material will be needed for a University nine next year. The league has been a sort of training school and must furnish much of the material for the nine next year. It is noticeable that the interest which has been manifested has not been detrimental to studies. Base ball has not been made a business but a means of recreation. For these reasons we think that the league has been a good thing. Some have been slightly injured but no one has received any very serious or permanent injuries. We hope that the interest and enthusiasm which has been awakened this year in athletics will not be allowed to dwindle and disappear, but will lead to increased activity and will force the "powers that be" to provide proper equipments for physical training. Western Nebraska-Its Hotels and its People. Why do men go west to new, rough and barren countries is a question that is often asked by those who stay "back east" in the confines of civilization, and perhaps as often asked by the men in question, the pioneers of the wilderness. My observation is that most men who come here to Nebraska are in search of the almighty dollar, those who come for "health" considerations are few and far between. All are alike. It makes no difference whether he be from Boston with all his Boston "culchaw," whether he sing in painful melody "Fair Harvard" or in just as nerve-jarring tones "Here's to dear old Yale," or whether he be from a farm in Pennsylvania, or from some still more western home, the Nebraska man is after money. Some strange and not altogether pleasant experiences have fallen to the lot of our party. Our last night in a railroad town was a cold one, snowy and blustry. We went to the hotel, (which by the way is on a list of "principle hotels" posted in the Eldridge house), got some cold and not altogether clean supper, after we had washed our faces in the horse trough, and finally were shown to our room. Six of us in one room with scarcely enough clothing to keep one warm. We stood it, however, and after breakfast we asked for our bills—"Zwei dollar for each" says mine host. We did not see it in that light and at length we got a more reasonable rate, paid up and left town at once. That was not our last dose of Nebraska hotel fare by a good deal. Of our wanderings for a few days nothing need be said, but when we had got fairly settled, had made arrangements for regular board and had staid at the hotel a week we had a little experience which was amusing, and for the landlord, unprofitable. We had been working hard all day, tramping through cornfields and weeds and had succeeded in getting up good appetites. At supper I was rather disgusted with our small rations and asked for eggs. Did I get them? Well, hardly! I got the information that "eggs cost money and ye have mate, ate it, will ye?" We ate our "mate," paid our bill forthwith and went to the rival hotel. As the landlord had but three other boarders, he was much put out and very profuse in his apologies. We enjoyed his discomfiture. He got even with one of the boys by charging an exorbitant rate for keeping his pony. The hotel men seem to run on the principle that dirt is cheap and very nutritious; and being nutritious, should bring them in lots of money. The hotel men are not the only ones who turn an honest penny whenever they can. The grocer, the butcher, the doctor and the banker don't scorn a nickle. The doctor is a quaint and queer character, who had a "large city practice but came here for health." One of our boys hurt his hand and made application to the experienced bone-sawer who treated him with pure lard and charged him a dollar therefor in addition to consultation fee. Society life here is not all that the most fastidious could wish; a few days ago a ball was advertised at a neighboring town. The country lads and lassies went, but I am happy to say the boys had :espect enough for the girls not to remain Some score of graders had heard of thedance and gone up to run it. They had no dance, so amused themselves by fighting. Our hotel has been a little hospital ever since. Some rough characters are met with every day.profanity and vulgarity are heard on every side, fights are of daily occurrence, drunkenness is hardly counted a vice, and Sabbath is only observed as a day of trade, games and drunkenness, there being no church for miles and only two in the county; yet with all this roughness and this grasping money-loving spirit of the people, I can only say that to strangers who mind their own business, they are polite and accommodating. No man fears being robbed, men habitually carry large sums of money, travel miles over lonely roads, but the first man has yet to be stopped and relieved of his wealth. If they want to rob a fellow mortal they do it by enormous charges for everything he needs, and by giving a very poor quality of that article. One instance I feel like giving to show how these fellows regard the railroad. It is said on all hands, "Oh the railroad is rich and we better get what we can." One granger, whom I will call Jones, came to our office a few days ago and complained that the road was, by changing the course of a small stream, depriving his hog pen of running water. He argued his case so well that the engineer decided to put in pipe, and during the conversation he remarked that that pipe came to six hundred dollars. Mr. Jones went off happy in the promise of his pipe, when he got home, he evidently thought it over, for day before yesterday he came into the office again and remarked: "Wal mister, I guess you fellers kin just give me that six hundred dollars and I'll let my hogs do with a well." This was a square proposition, and it infinitely delighted the youngsters in the office, as we foresaw some fun. Our worthy chief made full investigation, found that Jones only leased the land, which was not worth sixty dollars, found also that Jones had but ten hogs, so he changed his mind, decided not only not to pay Jones but not to put in a pipe. Then we had some real fun listening to eloquent arguments and voluminous profanity on the part of Mr. Farmer, all to no avail, however, as neither pleading nor swearing could get anything out of "Mister Surveyor." Sunday was the liveliest day for business I have seen for a long time, stores, saloon and a wandering photographer all did a land office business, in the afternoon a match game of ball and a horse race (which latter was attended by the Catholic priest), served to pass the time till evening, when the young men and maidens repaired to the unfinished convent building and had a dance. Such is life in the great sandy, windy State just north of the garden of the universe—drouthy Kansas. Wishing K. S. U. a pleasant Commencement and the Courier a long life I will henceforth remain silent. R. E. HENRY. --- Through some oversight we omitted in our Commencement program last week the list of the speakers who will take part in the anniversary of the Pharmacy Department. We ask forgiveness and assure the Pharmacists that no slight was intended. Their program is as follows: President of the Day, Prof. E. H. S. Bailey; Music; Invocation, Dr. James Marvin; Address of 'Welcome, Will Dick; Music; Review of Pharmacy Theses, Frank Prentiss; History, Sam Lindsay; Music; On Future Study, Prof. L. G. Sayre; Address Dr. R. J. Brown, Leavenworth, Kansas; Music. The entertainment promises to be a good one. Prof. J. H. Canfield has posted on his bulletin the schedule of the options and required studies in his department. We are pleased to notice that the options are of increased number, and that very instructive branch, Constitutional History, has been given four terms or two years. New studies have been introduced. Sophomores and Juniors should consult the bulletin at once, for they are required to select, before the close of the term, their branches for the ensuing year. Make your selections and report them immediately to Prof. Canfield. Since the rule has been passed abolishing the public presentation of presents. Dr. Wilcox offers the use of his room to those wishing to give presents to the graduates or other participants in the Commencement exercises. Only 10 per cent will be deducted for storage and delivery. It is rumored that twenty-three young gentlemen from Baker have secured their girls and are coming up to see Jo Jo and take in the circus Tuesday. The rumor is founded on the fact that 200 extra pounds of peanuts and thirty extra toy baloons have been ordered for the occasion. --- C This image contains a blank white space with no visible text or graphics.

In a recent copy of the Courier I noticed an article calling attention to the vacancy of the old University building and advocating that it be used for a ladies' dormitory. Unquestionably the building should not remain idle. It is likewise unquestionable that a dormitory for young ladies is desirable. But is this building suitable for the purpose? The very object which it is desirable to gain, that of avoiding the necessity of climbing a hill, is defeated by the building being situated upon a still more formidable hill which the young ladies would frequently find it necessary to climb. The situation of the building also exposes it to the bleak winds of winter, the destructive tornado, and the awful cyclone. Surely the mammas of the young ladies will never submit to their daughters dwelling in a building exposed to such perils. If the building is not to be used as a dormitory to what use shall it be put? Among the departments of which the State Legislature has provided that the University shall consist,the Department of Medicine, remains yet unestablished. Aside from the fact, that the laws of the State require a Medical Department, are there not other valid reasons for its establishment? Many young men go east each year to obtain instruction in medicine and surgery, for the great and affluent State of Kansas has not a single medical school within its borders. Within a radius of forty to sixty miles, I am told, (and the same is doubtless true of the whole State) there are many physicians practicing in country neighborhoods and smaller towns, who feel the need of further information in the science of their profession but whose financial resources and the extent of whose practice will not justify their going to eastern medical schools and who could and would gladly spend five or six months in the winter gaining the desired information at a school near home where the expenses would not be so very great. For the benefit, therefore, of the young men of the State who wish to prepare themselves for the medical profession, for the benefit of the people of the State who would receive more intelligent and therefore better medical treatment and care, if instruction be given to this class of physicians who desire it, it seems evident that a Medical Department should be established. Is this a suitable location for a medical school? It is argued that a large city where the advantage of a hospital is to be had and where subjects for dissection can be easily obtained, is the only place suitable for a medical school. The University of Michigan is situated in a small town and yet the medical school there is one of the most popular in the west. The medical department of the State University of Iowa is one of the prominent features of that institution, yet that school is not situated in a large city. The laws of Iowa provide that the deceased paupers from the poor farms of the counties of the State shall be sent to the medical department of the State University for use in the dissecting laboratories. Laws somewhat similar to these exist in this State and whenever these are insufficient they can be easily amended. There are people, many of them, in different parts of this State suffering from various diseases and injuries, who have not sufficient means to pay for being operated upon, who would gladly flock to a medical school where they could receive the best treatment free of charge. The location therefore is not a disadvantageous one. The situation of the building off by itself with rooms for laboratories and lecture rooms point to its admirable adaptation for the use of the Medical Department. Taking into consideration, therefore, the requirements of the laws of the State, the demand for medical instruction, the location and the fact that a building amply fitted for the purpose waits for occupancy, we deem it expedient that a Medical Department be established in the near future.
