LAWRENCE, KANSAS, JUNE 10, 1887. VOL. V. RECEPTIONS AND SOCIAL EVENTS of the WEEK. Kappa Alpha Theta. I. C. Party. Last Tuesday evening, June 1, the Kappa Alpha Thetas gave their annual reception at the residence of J. A. Dailey on Ohio street. The large house and beautiful grounds surrounding it were brilliantly illuminated and presented a very attractive and festive appearance. The guests began to arrive at an early hour, and in a short time the spacious parlors were filled. There were present the members of Kappa chapter in the University, many of Kappa's alumnae and resident members, and a number of young ladies from neighboring towns and cities, who are Thetas in spirit if not in letter. Gentlemen were present from the University, from the city, and many from a distance. Members of the faculty, and a number of Lawrence people were also present, and in all not less than 125 partook of the Thetas' hospitality. At 11 o'clock, Grosscup and his assistants served elegant refreshments to the large company. After this sumptuous repast, the canvassed floors, and inspiring strains of music from the First Regiment band, furnished opportunity to all who were devotees to Terpsichore's art. Dancing was continued until a late hour, when the company departed, the brilliant scene succumbed to night's darkness, and nothing was left of it save delightful memories in the minds of those who had participated in the pleasures and mingled in the festivities of the evening. The Thetas are to be congratulated upon the success of this reception which has become with them an annual occurrence. It resembles more than any social custom now existing in the University, the annual celebrations and entertainments which are characteristic of eastern fraternities. Following as it does immediately upon examinations, it is a fitting close to the year's work, and a proper opening of the festivities of commencement week. Saturday night the I.C.'s gave an informal reception at the home of Miss Lida Griffith south of the city Six 'bus loads of jolly students left town at eight o'clock bent on having a good time in spite of mud and heavy weather. There were present the young ladies of the chapter and their resident members together with gentlemen from most of the various fraternities. The evening was most pleasantly passed, and the famous I.C. "grub" was the chief feature. Every-one had a good time, for the I.C. "grubs" and "cookey-shines" cannot be surpassed for real fun and genuine enjoyment. It was not until a late hour that the merry party returned to the city, and when the time arrived for departing it was No. 38. found that the merriment and good things to eat had so increased the aggregate size of the company that an extra conveyance was necessary. Phi Gamma Delta Reception. Among the first and foremost on the list of society events during commencement week is always placed the Phi Gamma Delta annual June reception. This year was no exception, and the beautiful home of Hon. S. A. Riggs was the scene last Friday evening of a gathering which has never been surpassed in the annals of K. S. U. The evening was delightfully pleasant, after the rain of the day, and the lawn was brightly illuminated with Chinese lanterns. The Mandolin club furnished their exquisite dancing music, and the large spacious platform was occupied with merry dancers. The parlors, too, afforded stores of entertainment for the guests, and the perfection of the arrangements could not have been surpassed. It was a fitting finale for the prosperous year which Pi Deuteron chapter has just witnessed. Honors had been gained and victories won, and now the young guests united in celebrating their last great social event of the college year. As entertainers the Phi Gamm boys have always stood among the first, and Friday evening was another of the triumphs which mark their career. Elegant refreshments were served and the hours sped by most enjoyably for all present. Pleasure reigned supreme, every guest felt that the evening would always remain one of the most pleasant of memories, as it had been delightful in realization. Sigma Nu Party. Last Friday Mrs. Flora Bennett tendered the Sigma Nu fraternity a reception in honor of its graduating members, Messrs. G.W. Harrington, A.C. Markley and James Harris. After supper all returned to the ball room, and dancing was resumed until a late hour, when all departed voting Mrs. Bennett an admirable entertainer, and having spent a very enjoyable evening. Athletic Notes. The time was also the occasion of the third anniversary of the foundation of the chapter. UNIVERSITY VS. SHAWNEES. Over twenty couples were present among whom were several of the professors with their ladies, also many other friends of the fraternity. The early part of the evening was spent in dancing and social conversation. When the call for supper came all adjourned to the dining hall and enjoyed the sumptuous repast, prepared by Mr. Harris. Toasts were proposed and responded to as follows: "Our Fraternity," Mr. P. R. Bennett, of Chicago; "The Ladies," F. A. Marshall; "Our Absent Members," A. C. Markley; "The University," Prof. Carruth; "Our Hostess," G. W. Harrington. This game, which resulted in a victory for our Club was in many respects the best of the year. It was certainly the best that our own nine has played. The Shawnees played well; Haydn, their pitcher, did good work, striking out six batters in seven innings, but he was poorly supported. The feature of the game was the work of F. C. Campbell, K. S. U. catcher, behind the bat and the double work of Campbell and Hogeboom second baseman. Very few base runners were able to steal from first to second for Campbell threw with great precision and accuracy to the base and Hogeboom was sure to get the ball on the winner instantly. Howard Campbell did good work in left field and had the best record in batting and base running. Barlow made a neat steal from second to third. Nine innings were played and the score stood 10 to 6 in our favor. Shugrue struck out seven batters, Hayden six. PHI PSIS VS. PHI DELTS. This game aroused considerable interest and drew a large crowd, for it was understood that the nine which won would take the pennant. And since the clubs were believed to be of about equal strength a close game was expected, in this respect no one was disappointed. The game was the best of the fraternity series. It was almost wholly a battery contest. Taylor, pitcher for the Phi Psi, struck out eleven batters and made in all sixteen assists. Kellogg, Phi Delt pitcher, struck out five batters and made a number of assists. Davis and Campbell, catchers, both did good work. Seven innings were played and the score stood 8 to 7 in favor of the Phi Psi. The Phi Delts made all their runs in two innings, the Phi Psi made runs in five innings. Excitement ran high at the beginning of the seventh inning when the score stood 8 to 7, for one run for the Phi Delts would have made a tie, but the seventh was played without a change for either club. due to his efforts that the present fraternity league was organized. Solon T. Gilmore has, as secretary of the club, been an untiring and zealous worker. At a students' meeting held last week, F. C. Campbell, the big great catcher, was elected captain of the K. S. U. nine for the ensuing year. Prof. W. H. Carruth, who is enthusiastic in base ball, was chosen business manager. These two will proceed immediately upon the opening of the fall term to organize a club that will sweep all amateur nines in the State. The selections are good ones and we have no doubt but that K. S. U. will hold the college championship next year. The thanks of the students are due to Mr. J. D. Davis, the retiring captain, for time and labor which he has spent in trying to make athletics a prominent feature in K. S. U. He has always been an enthusiastic worker and it is largely The Betas failed to play their last game with the Sigma Chis. This counts as a game lost. The Sigs have lost three games and won two, the Betas were beaten in all the five games. Field Day. A good crowd witnessed the contest in athletics last Monday. Those who attended felt well repaid and all unite in pronouncing the day a success. The committee, although little time was given them, did their work well and to them is due much credit. It will be seen that R. P. Brown won a large number of the prizes. He surprised the boys and made a splendid record as a general athlete. There were a good number of entries for the various prizes.

There are only three of these works of art in this country, and Prof. Wilcox has labored diligently in order to secure these rare works for the Archaeological classes. Our Last. With this issue, the present staff finishes its work on the Courier. When we began we expected to work, and we have not been disappointed in the least. How well our work has been done, the students and public who have read our humble efforts from week to week can best tell. We know that it has not been of the highest and most thorough kind, but that cannot be expected of students whose first duty is to their studies. Nor can it be expected at all, when, as is now the case, two or three editors out of a staff of ten do nearly all the work. Yet we pride ourselves that the Courier has fairly reflected the University which it represents, and that it has more than kept pace with other publications from institutions equal in size to our own; and we believe further that it has, under the present management, been fair and unpartisan in its dealings with all the students. Of course we cannot claim that we have given publicity to every event which has deserved it, but where this has not happened it has often been through the carelessness of those most directly concerned. For we have not been unwilling to publish anything worthy of publishing, which has been duly reported to us. In this connection we wish to say that the University authories and students will secure a thoroughly good and creditable paper, only when they give it some attention, and take some interest in it. And this is an important matter, for no one but the veriest fossil can doubt that the influence of college publications is great and far-reaching. These publications, more than is commonly known or admitted, give a college its standing among other colleges. They are in fact exponents of the institutions which they represent. Thus it seems proper that all should unite in making them as good as possible. With us there is always censure enough for the poor features of our publications, and but very little praise for that which is truly praiseworthy. There are those who always notice it if anything is omitted, but they never take the trouble to inform the editors what they wish recorded. Our staff has been a very good one, better than usual. Yet the greater part of the work has fallen to three or four of its members. Mr. Crowell has done local work and has always been faithful and efficient. He has gathered real genuine, interesting items, and has not drawn on his imagination and wind. Mr. Ed. Wheeler has been on the Courier all year, and has been one of its hardest workers. He has edited the "College World" and has never failed in his many tilts with other editors to come out on top or at least vanquished. So that the Hesperian's compliment to the Courier belongs to him. It said: "There is more fight in one inch of the Courier than in a dozen columns of the Argo." If anything in the Courier during the last five months has particularly amused or pleased you, lay it to White. He has done good work and is deserving of credit for most of the spicy items. With all the instincts of a newspaper man, with his services have been valuable Mr. Cunkle has done faithful work on the personal columns and has never failed, when called upon, to furnish his quota of copy. The same can be said of Mr. Keys. Though the young ladies on the staff have not done so much work, we cannot complain for it was an honor to have their names on the paper and an honor which we appreciate. We are under special obligations to Mr. J. W. Roberts, of the Law Department. Who, although not a staff editor, has furnished regularly all the items which could be obtained concerning the happenings and progress of that growing department. We leave the work hoping that it will fall to abler and better hands. We believe in the COURCIER, think that it is a good thing and is worthy the best efforts of the best students. We hope for its continued prosperity and success. THE CONCERT. Commencement Exercises The concert on Tuesday evening of last week drew a large audience and was very enjoyable. The participants were Misses Williams, Starr, and Brown, vocal; Misses Ropes, Atwood, Dudley, and McBride, instrumental. The whole program was almost entirely the work of the pupils of the department. This concert closed the year's work for the department of music. The Courier has repeatedly said that its work has been of the highest kind, and that the University might well be proud of it. We can only reiterate this statement and express the hope that its efficiency may continue to grow and increase from year to year. CONTEST IN DECLAMATION. Another good-sized audience was in attendance Thursday evening. The first contestant was Fred. H. Bowersock, who spoke an extract from Wendell Phillips, on "Nihilism." Mr. Bowersocks has made rapid improvement as a speaker. His effort was a strong one, and made a favorable impression on the audience. Miss Nellie Palmer had a fine declamation on "Charles Sumner." Miss Palmer was easy and graceful and spoke clearly and distinctly. The third declamation by Harvey F. M. Bear, on "Liberty Surrendered; Never Regained," was one of the best. Mr. Bear has a pleasant, musical voice, which with culture can be made very powerful. His gestures were excellent. Allison T. Ayers spoke on "The New South." Mr. Ayers spoke in a clear, ringing tone, and by his earnest, enthusiastic delivery, crowded very closely the first honor. Julius M. Liepman delivered a good declamation on "Heroes of the Land of Penn." Mr. Liepman has a good voice, appeared at ease, and his gestures were among the best. Walter W. Davis delivered the winning declamation on the "Popularity of Horace Greely'. Mr. Davis' easy, graceful manner, combined with strength and earnestness made him at once the favorite with the audience. The judges were unanimous in awarding him the prize, which was offered by Field & Hargis, and consisted of an elegant fourteen-volume set of Shakespeare, and a concordance of the plays. The decision met with the approval of the audience. Misses Birdie Atwood and Ila Williams furnished the music. CONTAIN IN AUDACY From various causes the number of participants in this contest was reduced to three, Miss Hannicutt and Messrs. Doran and Smith. As this number was too small to present a public program the contest was held privately before a committee of the faculty on Friday morning. The committee awarded the prize to Thos. F. Doran. This prize, twenty-five dollars, was offered by Mr.G. Grovenor. OROPHILIAN ENTERTAINMENT. On account of the very heavy rain of Friday evening, only a small audience assembled in the chapel to witness the closing exercises of The Orophilian Literary Society. Though vacant seats are never inspiring to speakers, yet the entire program was well rendered and enjoyed by all present. Miss Flora Newlin was president of the evening, and the following was the program: of the evening, and the following was the program: Invocation...Dr Marvin Music...University Orchestra Essay, "Character Harmonies." Miss May Churchill Declamation, "The Fall of the Pemberton Mills."..Miss Flora Fincher Song...Miss Anna March Debate—Resolved, That the greater part of the labor problem is embodied in the question of National finance." W. W. Davis, Aff. A. T. Ayers, Neg. Music . . . Miss Anna March Oration . . . The Educated Man Oration . . . F. Doran Oration . "Class Conflict a. d. Christianity" . . . F. H. Oney Music . . . University Orchestra The debate was very interesting, and well argued upon both sides. The speaking of W.W.Davis and also the ration of T.F.Doran, deserve especial mention. The exercises throughout were well worthy the completion of so successful a year of work as has been enjoyed by Orophilian. The congregations of the various churches in the city, all met together Sunday, and joined with the University in the observance of Baccalaureate Sunday. An immense number of people were in attendance filling the chapel to its utmost capacity. BACCALAUREATE SERVICES. The followong was the order of the services: 1. Te Deum, (Choir.) - Knopfel 2. Reading of the Scriptures. 3. Hymn. "O How the Thought of God Attracts." 4. Prayer. 5. Sermon. 6. "Lead, Kindly Light," (Choir) Duke Dykes 7. Prayer. S. Hymn. "Go Forward, Christian Soldier." 9. Benediction. The sermon, a powerful one, was preached from the old text, "Those who are not with me are against me." Rev. Henry B. Ridgeway, president of Garrett Biblical Institute, delivered the sermon. He spoke of the necessity of a purpose in life, and the added strength which comes by uniting ourselves to Jesus Christ. Rev. Ridgeway spoke an hour and twenty minutes with a constant flow of beautiful and strong language, and accurate logic. The choir consisted of Misses Hutchings, Brown, Williams, and Ropes; and Messrs. Howe, Riggs, Stevens and McDonald. For Amount of the Choir [For Account of other Commencement Exercises, see another page.] Commencement this year has been in many respects successful. It has not been distinguished by the presence of great celebrities nor made memorable by the brilliancy and popularity of the graduating class. But it has been a good-all-around Commencement. The exercises have been interesting and well carried out. A noticeable feature has been the interest shown in the work and gatherings of the separate departments. The Pharmacists had their celebration and it was full of interest and enthusiasm. The Law alumni gathered in greater numbers than ever before and manifested much interest in their department. They were disappointed to learn that the laws had abandoned their Class Day exercises. Many collegiate alumni have been present and the alumni association has been strengthened in many ways. This is a matter of great satisfaction to the friends of the University for it is through the agency of this association that alumni are annually induced to visit their alma mater. In a few years better preparations and better accommodations must be made for the visiting alumni, but this will require time and more effort than is made at present. Yet as it is, their number is increasing from year to year and the feeling is growing more general among them that K. S. U. should have their presence at its annual celebration. Not only that it should have but that it is worth their while to give it. Commencement for 'S7 is past. Another class is gone and with it we unite in saying to K. S. U. "Hail and we Farewell." Senior Law Banquet Saturday ended nearly a week of solid examination for the Seniors, and after everyone had passed, there was naturally some rejoicing. This found expression at a very neat spread prepared by Wiedeman. Around this, class, faculty and bar-examining committee gathered about half past eight. J. W. Green, dean of the department, acted as toast master. Speeches were made by Judge Thacher, Judge Norton, Jos. E. Riggs, from the Douglas county bar, and by Messrs. Sullivan, Harris, Pentzer, Bradley, Hutchins, of the class. After speeches, a general good time was had. During Commencement week Miss Simpson will have her beautiful collection of oil painting on exhibition in the art room, which is the extreme north room on the third floor. All visitors to the exercises are invited to inspect the collection and see what this department is doing. Out of the sixty-two members in the present Freshman trigonometry class, only twenty-nine succeeded in passing the final examination. This is a conclusive proof to the mind of the Freshman that the University is fast becoming an institution of higher education. Fluke's--Latest Popular & Classical Sheet Music & Books.--Fluke's.

Class Day An unusually large audience was present Tuesday morning to hear the class of 'S7 bid farewell to K. S. U. on Tuesday morning to hear the class of 'S7 bid farewell to K. S. U. Miss Luella Moore, as president of the day, introduced Mr. E. G. Blair, of Atchison, Kas., who delivered the "Salutatory." Mr. Blair said that the occasion was not one of sorrow, but rather of rejoicing, for the class was about to receive that for which it had been preparing for the last years—greater power in the world and a better opportunity to make a success of life. Mr. Blair made a good practical speech, which was well received and was very creditable. Harry D. Smith, of Kansas City, delivered the next oration, which was justly pronounced one of the best ever delivered in the University. Mr. Smith is an excellent speaker and his oration is sel dom equalled by college students. A. C. Markley, of Carbondale Kansas, delivered a good oration, but had the misfortune to be interrupted by the storm which at the time was raging fiercely. Mr. Markley has a forcible delivery. "The address to the lower classes" by C. L. Smith, of Oskaloosa, was full of pithy points and good hits; delivered with ease and grace, it was well received and much enjoyed by the audience. Henry Nickel, of Newton, delivered the last oration. It was beautifully written and was a fine plea for the cultivation of the higher instincts and sentiments. Denton Dymn, of Kansas City, delivered the valedictory. Mr. Dunn The "Hat Speech" was made by Jep Davis, of Ottawa. Mr. Davis gave the Juniors a number of good raps and made them the butt of much ridicule, he is also deserving of credit for introducing a new feature in the hat presentation. The little plug brought down the house. In his reply, Joseph Ralston, of the Junior class, handled the Seniors pretty roughly. He touched up their weaknesses and showed up their follies. Both speeches were very good. spoke of life in the University and its democratic spirit. His speech was a departure from the old kind and its novelty was attractive and pleasant. In a few beautiful and well chosen words he bade farewell on behalf of the class to the faculty and to the University. Monday the Pharmacy Department celebrated their second anniversary and for the first time having a day set apart for them observed it with appropriate exercises. Prof. L. E. Sayre addressed the class on their future study and work. Admonishing them not to seek for gain alone, for a higher spirit than this should possess each true Pharmacist. The address was made by Dr. R. Brown, of Leavenworth, which was the chief feature of the day. He spoke of the University and their relation with the Pharmacy Department. His address was greeted with long and continued aplaeuse. In order that students may secure rooms and boarding places for the next year, without confusion, it will be wise for residents, desiring to rent rooms or keep boarders next school year to send their address to the COUNTER, Lawrence, Kansas. We wish to publish in the first fall issue a full and complete list of all such places. The following notice has been mailed to all Juniors: "Moved that students to be eligible for graduation must be without arrearages in their course at the beginning of the second term of their Senior year; except that a one term study or two one-half term studies in arrears will be allowed, provided it is Junior or Senior work and is taken during the second term with regular classes." --- Now is the time to secure good bargains, as Mrs. Gardner is going out of business. Everything in their line will be sold below cost during the remainder of this month. Call early if you want to secure good bargains, as the goods are selling rapidly. Another Educational Institu- tion. The charter has been filed and other preliminary arrangements perfected for the establishment of a law firm constituted to be known as the "Lawrence Business College and Academy of English and Latin,vin Solon O. Thacher, Charles Robinson,O.E. Harper, Edward Russell,W. N. Cole,J.C. Martin and H.G. McIlray,who are also direc-tors in the corporation is $25,000. One of the objects of this new enterprise is to recruit facilities for the thorough training of teachers than is now furnished by our public schools; to train and furnish the necessary high schoolers, the necessary mental discipline and breadth of culture not secured in a university; to prepare those who seek success in the business pursuits of life for the increasing and imperative demands of the great commercial interests. The academy will be located in the second and third stories of the new block of buildings McCulloch block stood, 15,00 square feet of floor space having been secured for that purpose when compartmented with the finest in the building.

Mrs. J. K. visiting The second annual meeting of the Science club for original work, was held Friday afternoon in the chemistry building. An interesting program was presented, consisting of the following papers: I. The Loco Weed—Prof. L. E. Sayre. Prof. Sayre has as yet found no poisonous principle in the plant. II. The Electro-Motive Force of Magnetism—Prof. E. L. Nichols and W. S. Franklin. III. Duration of Color Impressions upon the Retina—R. L. McAlpine. Violet was found to be the most lasting color, yellow the least. IV. The "Platinum Mine," at Ottawa, Prof. E. H. S. Bailey. This paper discussed some metallic specimens sent from Ottawa, purporting to be platinum. Prof. Bailey by tests decided that they were iron. V. Some Analyses of Dover's Powders—Prof. L. E. Sayre. These analyses showed much adulteration and the use of poor drugs. VI. Test of the Sense of Taste Prof.E.H.H.S.Bailey and E.L.Nichols. 123 persons show that bitter substances are more appreciable than any other. The sense of taste is more acute in females than in males. VII. Temperature of the Air at Different Levels in Lawrence, Kansas—Prof.F. F. Snow. VIII. Sanitation, (applied to Lawrence)—R. L. McAlpine. Mr. McAlpine showed a map of Lawrence, showing contour lines and line of the proposed sewer. The cost of such a system would not exceed $50., 000. IX. Characteristic Curves of Authorship—Prof. E. L. Nichols. In this paper were shown relative curves of the two, three, four and five letter words in Shakespeare and Bacon. After completing the program a business meeting was held, at which the following officers for the ensuing year were elected: President, V. L. Kellogg; Vice President, E. Caldwell; Secretary, P. A. Williamson; Treasurer, W. S. Franklin; Librarian, L. T. Dyche. The club has had a most success ful year, and promises to continue as one of the leading societies of the University. Law. The Juniors have had no examinations this week, having completed the last book on Friday. G. W. Frolich has an offer at St. Louis which he will accept, unless he finds something in Kansas City, which will suit him better. W. S. Wolley, '88, left Wednesday for his home in New York. He will return next year. Mr. Thompson, a former student of the University, but since, a knight of the ferule, visited the classes this week with a view to entering next year. The Seniors were all successful in their examinations, and celebrated the event by inviting the faculty and examining committee to a banquet at Weideman's on Saturday night. The written examination for the Seniors was held at the court house, lasting three entire days, twenty questions being given on each branch, instead of ten, as stated last week. They had an oral examination last week before S.O. Thacher, S.A. Riggs, and J.Q. A. Norton. Some of the Seniors wanted to have a picture of the class taken, but of course, as usual, they couldn't agree. Dickerson wanted a "dagarytype," Blair said he would have nothing but a "vig-net," and Jackson said "dogoned if a tin type aint good enough." This week they were of one mind long enough to go to the gallery, and Mettner after a great deal of scolding, got them all quiet, but on account of the frowns and scowling, they had to sit three times before they could get a negative.
