ATHLETIC COLUMN.
EDITOR, R. R. WHITMAN.
EDITOR, R. K. WHITMAN.
Schmelzer, the Kansas City deal er in sporting goods, is to get out a new racket this spring, on the plan of Wright & Ditson's "Sear's special. Schmelzer thinks that the racket will be fully equal to the above and will not cost much more than half. It has long seemed to us that rackets were unnecessarily high and if Schmelzer succeeds in his project our tennis players will be grateful.
The play to be given by the Athletic board is inactive rehearsal. The play is a four act farce comedy by Labyiche, one of the best of the modern French dramatists. The play has been localized and as presented by a first rate caste will no doubt make a hit. It is probable that a orchestra composed of K. S! U. musical talent will be organized for the occasion.
The ball ground has been graded and fenced and is now in good condition.
S. T. Field has sent East to see if it is possible to obtain ball or tennis caps in University colors. If the caps can be secured a number will be ordered immediately.
The ball nine at present has no games arranged with clubs out side the city. Manager Armstrong informs us that he has been waiting to see what would be done by the State league before writing to the other colleges. It is to be hoped that some games will be arranged for soon, the nine can work with much more enthusiasm if it be certain that it is to play some good clubs this spring.
Yale has so far arranged for thirty-three ball games for its team
Some time since the Secretary of the Athletic Board wrote to the State of Missouri to see if some athletic contests could be arranged for. A negative reply has been received. No athletic organization is maintained in that college and they were in no shape to compete.
THE Chaddock, which is a pretty good paper taken altogether, has a most silly and aimless article in its last issue on "Africa," written evidently by some one who wanted to fill up some space. We fail to see the object in any college paper of publishing such a lot of milk-and-water stuff. The article in the same issue on "A Visit to Mount Vernon," is excellent and well written.

ADELPHIC society has purchased some pictures to ornament the walls of its hall. They are excellent engravings, and will be ornaments of permanent value. We are glad to see so much interest as this, manifested in one of our literary societies. Both the literary society halls could be improved and decorated in a manner highly creditable to the University. They would thus be attractive meeting places for the students, and enthusiasm would be more easily maintained. We hope to see this progress continue.
We are informed by the Industrialist that another weekly paper has been started at the University. This is interesting news. We had not heard of it before, nor has anyone else in the University so far as we can find out. It has probably been kept a dead secret by those supposed to have it in hand;—so dead in fact that no issue has yet appeared. No, the Industrialist is badly mistaken. We manage to support two live weeklies and a monthly, but that is about all we can stand, even in the University.
A DRAMATIC entertainment will soon be rendered for the benefit of the Athletic Association. The play is translated and adapted from the French "Voyage de Monsieur Perrichon." It is a bright little comedy, abounding in good hits, and containing many very amusing situations. To Prof. Arthur Canfield is due the credit of translation and re-arrangement from the French. In some college, we have forgotten where, we notice this year an account of a dramatic entertainment gotten up for the benefit of an Athletic Association which was called "College Days," and consisted of a conglomeration of the ups and downs of college life into a burlesque whole. It probably was quite funny and it certainly took well from the account given. It occurred to us that perhaps this idea would be a good one, if carried out here, but perhaps it would savor too much of the school "entertainment."
"AND the villain still pursues us," in the form of the mysterious Mr. "Bn.," the contributor to the Courier, who pats us on the back with one hand, while he clubs us with the other. We are somewhat confounded and perplexed at the ingenious method he follows. We become flattered when we read his protestations of personal esteem, but we are suddenly abased when he begins to dissect us as editor of the KANSAN. Mr. "Bn," is all right however. If he wishes to analyze us it is his privilege. We are much obliged for his good will, and admire his candor and honesty as much as we do his sense, even though we consider him mistaken in his premises. As for the fraternity question, if it be a question, it is not our purpose or desire to continue its discussion editorial for three reasons. Non-fraternity men will not be convinced thereby. Fraternity men do not need convincing. And it occupies space which we need for other purposes. Three very good reasons. We do not recede from our position as regards fraternities in college, but we think we can interest our readers more in other ways than by an endless discussion on this well worn topic. That the KANSAN will be conducted with perfect fairness and satisfaction to all the students of the University is our intent and purpose. Nothing shall deviate the management of the paper from what it believes to be right and just. We hope, Mr. "Bn," that appreciating our good intention as we believe we appreciate yours, that you will accept this as our finale.
EVERYBODY went to hear Kennan. The house was packed. The lecture was one of the finest ever delivered in Lawrence. It was evident that Mr. Kennan had a purpose in all he said, and his tales of the sufferings, the miseries and the brutalities endured by the Russian political exiles touched a warm chord of sympathy in the hearts of the people. We do not wonder that he is rousing the great American people everywhere to a sense of indignation towards the Russian government for its treatment of its political prisoners. The effects of Mr. Kennan's articles and lectures is being seen in the plans to present a monster petition to the Tsar, at the meeting of the International Prison Association to be held at St. Petersburg. The indignation of the American press, and the American people is being fully aroused. Mr. Kennan tells his story simply, without attempt at oratorical effect. None of this is needed, for the man has something important to say, and the only thing he desires, is to say it as directly and plainly as possible. At times he rises to oratory, in words of solemn and prophetic denunciation. We noticed that wherever the audience could find an opportunity to express their entire sympathy with his subject it never failed to do so, and the speaker was interrupted with repeated bursts of aplause.
Stereopticon views aided greatly in the presentation of the subject, Geo. Kennan interested everybody, and was a triumph for the lecture course.
A CARD.
To the Editor of the KANSAN:
From the reference to the State Athletic Association in the Athletic column of last week's KANSAN, it would seem that the delay in getting out the constitution of the association lies entirely with Mr. Tucker, of Washburn College.
I wish to state, not only for the benefit of those here interested in the matter, but also for the other colleges, members of the Association, that such is not the case.
Very Respectfully, F.H.KELLOGG.
A committee, consisting of the President, Secretary and Treasurer of the State Association, was selected to prepare the constitution. Now, in order to do away with the necessity of a meeting of these officers, each from a different college, Mr. Tucker, upon the request of the other two members of the committee, kindly consented to prepare the first draft of the constitution, and then present it to the committee for amendment or approval; and thus the matter now stands.
As a member of this committee I am as much in fault as any one; and as I am supposed to represent K. S. U. in this Association complaints from the University should be made against me rather than against Mr. Tucker.
Let the blame, if any there be, rest upon the committee as a whole and not upon Mr. Tucker who placed himself in this position simply as a favor to the committee.
The preparation of a constitution such that it will meet with the approval of each one of eight different colleges, with their respective interests which they desire to see especially cared for, is a rather difficult task; but as soon as this work is completed the Kansas State Inter-Collegiate Athletic Association will be in a good substantial condition, and we may expect a great deal from it.

ES.
No fear is in the heart of time,
Why should there be in ours?
The world’s heart throws into a rhyme
Of gladness; all its powers
Sing to man’s heart forever.
Heigh ho ! will not the illies blow
Next Spring as gaily as we know
That they have blown forever?
Faith! you may die, or I may die,
And many a man our better,
Eve next again the illies lie
Along the shore, but you and I
Were not to live forever,
The seasons come, the seasons go;
The illies fade, the illies blow;
And joy abideth ever.

EXCHANGE NOTES.
CHAIRMAN OF COMMITTEE:—We want a watch worth $100 to offer as a prize in an amateur athletic contest
JEWLELEKY:—One that will cost about $30, I suppose.—N. Y. Life.
WILL WHITE.—The best looking girls do not go into society, but the society girls think they do.
—Handed in by a man who is at present in the tall grass and has his tree picked out in case pursuit is offered.
THE College Mercury for March 18th has an article on the fraternity question. It is in reply to an article in the previous issue attacking the secret societies. We must say that the article in support of the fraternities is a very weak and forceless affair.
THE University correspondent for the Journal made a mistake in his statement about the K. S. U. Literary Club failing to meet last Friday evening. On it contrary a meeting was held, and an interesting meeting too. Parliamentary Law was the main feature of the program.
Some of our exchanges seem to have a very solid appearance, nearly all the space being occupied by one or two articles. It is safe to say that such articles are rarely read. If the writers would condense their thoughts into one-fourth the space, it would add to the value of their productions.—The Sioux.
PROF. CANFIELD of the Kansas University was made a member of the Faculty of the American Institute of Civics at the last meeting of its board of trustees, of which Chief Justice Fuller, Andrew Carnegie, ex-Justice Strong and Senators Morrill, Hawley, Wilson and Blair are members. The Faculty is composed of such men as President Andrews of Brown University. Prof. Wilson of Princeton and Prof. James of the University of Pennsylvania.--Clay Center Dispatch.
In a recent issue of the KANSAN there were three or four columns of "miscellaneous plate matter." We would suggest to the business manager of the KANSAN that he "rustle" more ads., as they would be quite as entertaining to his readers and of vastly more profit to his company. —Iowa Wesleyan.
Our friend evidently does not appreciate the beauties of plate. We confess that we don't either. You are safe to look in our issues since that time however, without being greeted by such entertaining material.
THE newspaper contest which has been going on for months, and which still continues over the chancellorship of the University, is an abuse by the press of the high privilege which it enjoys of discussing according to pleasure all questions of interest to the people. A reasonable advocacy, a well considered suggestion or a general outline of policy pertaining to the management of an institution like the University, would be quite proper. But the character of the discussion to which we allude amounts to an assumption by certain papers of the powers and duties of the regents of the University, the effect of which is to divide the friends of that institution, and will in time require a bitter contest between these factions for mastery. The true course which is suggested by common sense and expediency is to encourage the regents to use their best judgment and secure the best man possible, and then give him a fair trial. If he proves a success he will commend himself to the people, and if otherwise, the time for criticism will have arrived and should then be freely applied.-Ft. Scott Monitor.
VACATION has come and the Volante will miss many faces as the spring term commences. To students returning, greeting; to those gone for good, a kind farewell. The Volante will live. Its spring muse is getting ready to inspire sweet songs. Nebraska's verdant bowers and rugged hills will be a theme of song. The flouncing fish in the Vermillion river at Bloomingdale, will draw forth poetic strains. The winding Muddy, treacherous and deceitful, will wander through the grass-grown valley, for the poet. Amphion will tune his canorous lyre. Murcury will lead in procession the mighty cottonwoods. The Pierian fount will flow with classic lore and the metrical effusions on the topic "spring" will not be lacking. —Volante.
Yes and down here we already begin to listen to the gentle Kaw of the Kansas murmuring in sweet bars (of sand) as it dashes its mighty flood of waters down to meet the raging Missouri, while from its picturesque and lovely banks float down on the wings of the cyclone the entrancing odors of the blooming hackberry and the fragrant slippery elm. We gaze into the distance, and far off towards the setting of the sun stretches the beautiful vista of the U. P. R. R. Already the sand burs and the milkweeds are waking from their long winter sleep and show their tiny heads above the soiled earth. The wild game begin to show themselves, and on the limpid Kansas lakes the mud duck sings its lay, and in the dense forest the ground squirrel and the cotton-tail invite to the chase, and ever through the night is heard the plaintive new of the catfish, while on the turfy bank is heard the bark of the dogwood.

JO-HE.
If the readers of this article imagine from the heading of this article that they are going to read the history of an oriental "John," reveling in his opium den or wash-house they can banish such ideas, for the name is decidedly American being patented to prevent imposition and fraud in imitating the natural remedy that is regarded by thousands all over the Union as the greatest discovery in medical science of the century. The name is the reversal of the first two letters of the given and surname of the fortunate discoverer, Henry Jones. Four years ago Mr. H. B. Jones discovered on his farm in Washington county, Texas, a spring of oil flowing from a mass of petrified wood and moss. It is of dark color, heavy constituency and emits an offensive odor. It partakes somewhat of the nature of crude petroleum and is very penetrating; reaching the seat of any desease that flesh is heir to and is a soothing and healing balm in cuts, burns, scalds and all skin deceases. It is highly magnetic and electric, and, if we are to judge human testimony, it never fails to give both relief and cure. Mr. W. P. Bayes of St. Louis is general agent for the states of Missouri, Arkansas, Illinois and Kansas and is rapidly establishing agencies in all the prominent cities of those states. Already Kansas is represented by offices at Leavenworth, Topeka, Independence and Lawrence, every one of which is meeting with wonderful success. So confident of its merits are the proprietors, that they give free applications at their various sanitariums to convince the incredulous public, and if Lawrence is a sample of the public confidence in its merits, Jo-He has thousands of votaries. We found the office and application rooms crowded with patients waiting for treatment. The oil is put up in hermetically sealed cans and enough oil of sassafras is used to counteract the natural odor of the oil and render it pleasing to the smell. The Lawrence branch was only established last January and now it is crowded with eager patients who give flattering testimonials of the value of the wonderful oil. The proprietors will guarentee a perfect cure in any case where the oil can penetrate to the seat of the disease and they have yet to find the first disease where that cannot be done. They have already effected thousands of cures accounted miraculous and are piling up testimonials from people of unquestioned veracity all over the union in endless quantities. The agent here will be pleased to give free applications to those who want to give it a trial. From present indications the discoverer of this wonderful remedy will be remembered by future ages for giving to the world a remedy to which thousands owe their lives. Nature does wonderful things in her wonderful interior laboratory, but she yet has to produce anything to compare with the wonderful oil, Jo-He. Write the agent at Lawrence for information and give it a trial.

A committee composed of members of the faculty and principals of high schools who met here last week recommended some important changes in the University curriculum. One of the most important is a provision that German be substituted in the classical course for the first two years of Greek. The proposition has been agreed to by the Greek department and will probably be adapted by the Regents.
Prof. Dyche has just finished mounting his Rocky Mountain goats. It is the most artistic job in the museum. The goats are mounted in various positions on a light frame covered with paper pulp perfectly imitating moss grown rocks, and the whole is on rollers so that it can be moved about any where in the museum with perfect ease. We have a natural history museum of which we may well be proud.
Those students having rackets which they wish restrung, can do so by sending them to E. E. Menges, 924 Main Street, Kansas City. A first-class stringing will be put in for a dollar and a half, and a great gain will be made in time, as heretofore all rackets have been sent either to Chicago or Boston.
Athletic Column.
R. R WHITMAN ... EDITOR.
For the benefit of the athletic interests of the University, the athletic board will present the farce comedy, "Sweetpea's Pleasure Trip," at Bowersock's Opera House, Friday evening April 25th. Remember the date and make no other engagement.
A great many questions have been asked the last week in regard to the proposed trip of the base ball and tennis teams to Lincoln at the time of the Inter-State Oratorioal contest May 1. The matter stands this way. The athletic board wrote to Lincoln offering to send the teams if the expenses could be guaranteed. A few days ago answer was received asking what the expenses would probably be and saying that unless excessive they would be guaranteed, providing the game was played. This was in reference to base ball, as it was not certain yet whether tennis games could be arranged for. The board has written to Wasburn to see what arrangements can be made for a special car to Lincoln, and something definite will be known in a few day. The opinion of the members of the board seems to be in favor of sending the ball team and running the risk of a game.
The ball team has lost three of its most energetic players, Voorhees, Hickey and Curry. These players may be with the nine if it makes the proposed Nebraska trip, but it is not certain that they will be able to do so. This weakens the team materially but there is plenty of good base ball material in the University if it can only be brought out. By this time the board will have chosen a new captain for the nine to fill Voorhis' place. The ball players have elected Campbell Watson to represent them on the board in Hickey's place. The base ball committee should put the men to work immediately, for it is only a little over two weeks until the Lincoln contest, and some hard work must be done if we send a winning team. The University of Nebraska belongs to the Nebraska Inter-Collegiate Ball League and is reported as having a good team
The Harvard-Yale dual league is probably assured. The Harvard committee appointed to draw up articles of agreement of athletic sports between the two Universities has completed its report. These articles will be submitted to the students at New Haven and if adopted will go into effect at once.
No. 28.
The participants are limited to bona-fide members of the Universities who have not engaged in athletics for money, prizes or compensation. The formation of this dual league is along the lines laid down by President Elliott in his last message to the Harvard students.
NOTES.
The grounds of the West Lawrence Tennis club are now open for play, and all students that are members of the club should begin practice at once. We have some
splendid material here this spring and will undoubtedly secure some good teams.
Schnelzer will give his second annual tennis tournament at Excelsior Springs, Mo., the 28, 29 and 30 of May. The tourney will probably be under the auspices of the Southwestern Association. It gives promise of being a most successful one. The Kansas City players have so far carried off most of the prizes given at these tournaments, but we feel sure that if the University will send its best team to Excelsior this spring that it will take a high place, if not the first place. We have been unfortunate in having but one of the team present at any tourney but the first, and this year we should make an effort to show what we can do.
The High School Mercury advocates the placing of a gymnasium in the basement of the new school building. The school board will make a serious mistake if it does not provide a place for physical culture. Work in the gymnasium should be required the same as in any, of the branches usually taught.
A big tennis tournament to be held some time in July at Excelsior Springs is being worked up by some Kansas City people. The project has the backing of several strong morting houses.

THE KANSAN was forced to come out on Friday of last week instead of Wednesday as we would have desired. This was necessitated by the fact that the faculty did not decide on the vacation question until last Tuesday and consequently we were unable to have our material ready to issue the paper on Wednesday. If any have failed to receive their last week's KANSAN they will please report that fact to the business managers, and they will be provided for.
The lecture course which has been conducted this year by the Phi Psis, has proved a success, financially and every other way. In old times we used to have a regular University course of lectures, free to the students. Unfortunately, the University just at present needs all its money for regular expenses, and consequently the free lectures have been given up this year. There have been numerous lectures in the different clubs and societies, but no regular systematic course. The Phi Psi fraternity with a view to filling the want, and with an eye to financial profit at the sametime undertook the somewhat risky responsibility of carrying out a University course. Tickets for the course of five lectures were sold at $2.00 each, making the cost of hearing each lecturer but forty cents. These tickets more over entitled the holders to a first choice of seats from the parquette, thus making the cost of each ticket low enough for all, when the high character of the course is taken into consideration. Robert McIntyre, Geo. W. Cable, The Harvard Quartette, Bill Nye and George Kennan, comprised the course. The course has been eminently satisfactory, and the Phi Psis have netted a neat little sum

EVERYONE seems to have enjoyed the vacation. Many of the students we noticed did not go home, but devoted their time to study in the library. There are also many who fully intended to get in some heavy strokes of work during the brief days of intermission, but for whom the prospect of leisure proved too attractive a bait. If you don't believe it ask several of Juniors about the forensics they were going to write during the vacation and see the disappointed and pained look that will over spread their features.
If you want to see something go over to the Museum of Natural History now. Prof. Dyche has his "crag" all fixed up with his eight mountain goats clambering around over it in the most lifelike fashion imaginable. On the other side of the room he is going to build another precipice on which he will mount his mountain sheep, or bighorn, of which he killed quite a number while on his trip to British America. Many people fail to distinguish between mountain sheep and mountain goats, thinking them simply two different names for the same animal. A greater mistake could not be made. The mountain goat has long, snowy white wool, short black horns—and in fact looks like a goat. The mountain sheep or big horn, is about the size of an antelope, often much larger however, and is of a dull grayish color with short hair like a deer, and enormous horns which are ribbed and curve back after the manner of ram's horns, often giving the animal a top-heavy appearance. Both these animals are rare, and both are found in the same regions of the Rocky Mountains. Both are now represented in our museum by groups of magnificent specimens. Prof. Dyche has also a large number of other specimens which will soon be mounted, and when all are finished the museum will have the appearance of a traveling menagerie. Seventy-two different kinds of animals and birds form the sum total of the Professor's "plunder," brought from British America to be placed in the museum. Prof Dyche says he is going again this year and hunt for moose, caribou and other large game which he was unsuccessful in obtaining on his last trip.
Students will attempt sometimes to take work in classes ahead of that in which they are ranked. Usually this is unwise, for it produces irregularity and takes time which might be spent better in general reading. We understand the policy of the authorities here is to permit such reaching forward only in cases where it can be done without the least interference with the proper work of the student. Regular work first, then society work and reading, and finally, but rarely, advanced studies.—College Life.
Boys go to Andy Reed for a shave or hair cut.
It is stated that Regents will call Professor Snow to the Chancellorship of the University. If this is done, we hope that he will accept for the sake of the welfare of the University. It is certain that for K. S. U. to go on another year without a head, will injure it with the people, will diminish the number of students, and will render the legislature more untractable. Professor Snow is popular throughout the State, and in the University. He the warm friend of the students, and has been with Kansas University since its foundation, so that he is familiar with all its needs and requirements. Prof. Snow is by sentiment and sympathy a western man and a Kansas man, although born and educated in the east. As President of the Faculty this year he has shown his ability to manage and direct the affairs of the University. He is a specialist in natural science, and his election to the Chancellorship would necessarily remove him from his classes in his chosen department. Being a man however of broad and cultivated mind, this fact of his being a professor, especially devoted to natural history, does not unfit him for the executive work of the University, as has been amply demonstrated this year. His election will do much to allay this perpetual newspaper meddling, which must hurt the University if it is kept up much longer. Professor Snow is a man dear to the students, honored and respected through the State, popular with all classes, and an untiring worker in whatever contributes to the welfare and up-building of the University. Let the Regents elect him and we will welcome him by acclamation. Long live Professor Snow
At Lawrence I visited the University, and wish especially to return thanks to Professor Snow, of Snow Hall, for a delightful hour among his fossil batrachians and giant straddle bugs. He has a good collection of Kansas people who flourished at an early date and who made footprints in the sands of time which have been handed down to posterity in the limestone of our day. He has the lower jaw of a mammoth, with blue porcelain teeth which for many years stood in the middle of a small stream, so that when the water was low the boys used to stand on this monster's chin and fish, little knowing what a treasure it would be to the savant and the scholar in future years. One day a sportsman stopped to spit on his bait, and glancing down at the huge stone decided that it was a bone. He got help to roll it over, and lo! it was the maxillary works of a great, coarse beast that could eat a hardware store like a dish oat meal and use the raging main for a finger bowl.—Bill Nye.

DES
MY FAITH.
The two sonnets given below were written by Profs. Carruth and A. G. Canfield for the magazines. The first "My Faith" appeared in the New England Magazine for April. The other, "Lieder Ohne Worte" was to the February number of the "Cosmopolitan."
ARTHUR GRAVES CANFIELD.
Be not an anchor, O my faith to lie
On ground you once stood, For here
I am.
be not known by any of us
on ocean a few miles farther deep.
The water often throps to sleep.
And tumult of the waves comes never nigh.
Thy task to clutch and blindly cling and keen
And'e'en beyond the glimpse of day's great eye.
My boat at rest,—in front the self same sweep
Of well-known coast, o'er head the selfsame
Nay, rather, when the mighty winds are free,
As thou the needle loyal to thy north,
Thou hast thy wickly heart.
First try to ask the utmost isse explore.
Better go down amid the temples roar
But go down amid the tempests roar
In land-locked jacks and put not
forth.
At hearing of the loud-entreating sea.
LIEDER OHNE WORTE.
The high unearthly sweetness of these sires, Wrung out long, long ago, by Love and Grief, From the great master's heart-strings, relief Thrilling thus passionately through the years Rather than break outright, into our ears, Steals softly unannounced, a kindly thief, And breathing on our dusty strings in brief Sets them to singing, and we stand in tears.
Type of the joys and woes of thousands, woe
Serenely and untrumped, but turned Into the voiceless music of loving deeds, Whose influence infeeble is borne Round the great globe to cheerless souls that
yearned.
In darkness for this answer to their needs.
EXCHANGE NOTES.
The College Rambler in its last issue has an interesting letter from Syria.
The Miami Student gives a sketch and portrait of the late General Robert C. Schenck in its last issue. General Schenck graduated from Miami in 1827.
Again the soup rolls merrily around the U. of N's candidate for oratorical greatness in the late state contest. But we are not discouraged. We shall try again next year. Perhaps by that time the Wesleyan will have graduated some of her ministers of rather mature years and will be no more dangerous than was Doane after she graduated the man who defeated us on two different occasions. We presume that anything is fair, however, and so we will not make any objections even though some of the minor institutions see nt to send some of their faculty to represent them at the state contest. In these contests some one must be defeated and it is the proper thing for us to take our defeat with good grace and see that the man who represents Nebraska in the inter-state contest has the strangest support possible. Sail, in Brother Ferguson, we hope that you may be as successful in the coming contest as you were in the one that is past.—Hesperian.
We can sympathize with you Fate seems to be down on us State Universities. We too are hoping that after a while Baker will graduate her young theological orators, and Washburn her oratorical missionaries. Meanwhile it falls to the lot of Mr. Naylor to do up the Nebraska Wesleyan man next month.
Local artists should consult Barse 1219 Main Street Kansas City for artists material.
The Wesleyan has tried the eighty-five per cent. rule for one term. The general opinion is that it is a good thing. The Faculty are pleased with it, and the greater share of our students give it their hearty approval. The complaints which have come to our ears were more of a personal nature than of a general application. When our students realize that faithfulness to their own best interests will lengthen a three day's vacation to a week, and do away with the examination grind, we are induced to believe that the number of those who take the examination at the end of the term will be materially decreased. Yet the lengthened vacation and the escaped examination are but little of the benefit. —Elite Journal.
Here is something we clip from the Westminster Review that is just tip-top. We doubt if the thought here contained could have been better or more aptly expressed. The person who wrote it certainly did well to get so much into so small a space:
"Be yourself. Don't attempt to be somebody else; for, in the first place, you can't do it, and, in the second, if you could do it, there would be no earthly use for two people exactly alike. This world would no more admit two Julius Caesars or two Bonapartes than two Gods. You are a cog made to fit a certain notch and there are no other notches like yours and no other cogs like you, and when you are gone your notch will be gone also. So don't try to trim yourself or patch yourself to fit some other man's notch, for you can't get into it while he is in it and when he is gone there will be no such notch to fill, and you'll have to settle down into your own peculiar notch at last. Lots of people seem to think a dead person's place is left for some one to fill, but his own place is one thing a man takes with him out of this world.
There is no body else so fortunate as to have a monopoly on yourself. Do you want to be somebody else and yourself at the same time? If you will attend to your own business you'll have your hands fall without trying to shoulder the responsibility of some one else. Be yourself, if you can't there is only one alternative, be nobody."

If the readers of this article imagine from the heading of this article that they are going to read the history of an oriental "John." reveling in his opium den or wash-house they can banish such ideas, for the name is decidedly American being patented to prevent imposition and fraud in imitating the natural remedy that is regarded by thousands all over the Union as the greatest discovery in medical science of the century. The name is the reversal of the first two letters of the given and surname of the fortunate discoverer, Henry Jones. Four years ago Mr. H. B. Jones discovered on his farm in Washington county, Texas, a spring of oil flowing from a mass of petrified wood and moss. It is of dark color, heavy constituency and emits an offensive odor. It partakes somewhat of the nature of crude petroleum and is very penetrating reaching the seat of any desease that flesh is heir to and is a soothing and healing balm in cuts, burns, scalds and all skin deseases. It is highly magnetic and electric, and, if we are to judge human testimony, it never fails to give both relief and cure. Mr. W. P. Bayes of St. Louis is general agent for the states of Missouri, Arkansas, Illinois and Kansas and is rapidly establishing agencies in all the prominent cities of those states. Already Kansas is represented by offices at Leavenworth, Topeka, Independence and Lawrence, every one of which is meeting with wonderful success. So confident of its merits are the proprietors, that they give free applications at their various sanitariums to convince the incredulous public, and if Lawrence is a sample of the public confidence in its merits. Jo-He has thousands of votaries. We found the office and application rooms crowded with patients waiting for treatment. The oil is put up in hermetically sealed cans and enough oil of sassafras is used to counteract the natural odor of the oil and render it pleasing to the smell. The Lawrence branch was only established last January and now it is crowded with eager patients who give flattering testimonials of the value of the wonderful oil. The proprietors will guarentee a perfect cure in any case where the oil can penetrate to the seat of the disease and they have yet to find the first disease where that cannot be done. They have already effected thousands of cures accounted miraculous and are piling up testimonials from people of unquestioned veracity all over the union in endless quantities. The agent here will be pleased to give free applications to those who want to give it a trial. From present indications the discoverer of this wonderful remedy will be remembered by future ages for giving to the world a remedy to which thousands owe their lives. Nature does wonderful things in her wonderful interior laboratory, but she yet has to produce anything to compare with the wonderful oil. Jo-He Write the agent at Lawrence for information and give it a trial.

We expect before many years to see him occupying a chair in some good University.
Miss Lyle Hynes of Los Angeles, California was a visitor at the University Monday. She has been visiting friends in town for some time but will leave soon for Chicago where she will spend some time before returning to her western home.
No tree was ever planted on the campus before that blossomed out quite so soon after being set out as did the Senior's tree. To plant a tree one day and to see it the next day full of blossoms and foliage is unusual. The Seniors may be proud if every enterprise they undertake thrives so well.
In his speech to the students who "called upon him" last Friday night Prof. Snow said among other things the following:
"I am glad that so large a portion of the people of the State appreciate the situation with regard to the Chancellorship. I am pleased because of the sympathy which I have received and expect to receive from my fellow members of the faculty, and above all, I am gratified by this manifestation of approval at the association of my name with the Chancellorship, by those whom I have had the honor of assisting in their struggle for education, I rejoice with you at the pride which the people of the State take in building up and maintaining a great institution of learning in this great new commonwealth."

This play is not a "laughing influenza of la gripe," nor "150 laughfs in 150 minutes," nor "the funniest show on earth" but a bright sparkling unabridged commentary of the times. The company has not just come from a 600 night engagement in New York; will not parade the street in costume with a brass band and the actors are prohibited from displaying one hundred thousand dollars worth of diamonds in the last act. The cosmes are sufficient but home made. This will be the event of the University season. Don't miss it.
Seats will be on sale at Crew's book store, Tuesday morning April 22. Remember the State Oratorical contest and take warning. Scale of prices 75c 50c and 25.
In order that a successful Field Day may be held this spring, the board should begin making the necessary arrangements immediately. Let a list of events be made out and posted so that all those who intend to compete may have sufficient training to make creditable showing. It would be a good plan to arrange for base ball and tennis games in the morning, with the representatives of some of the other colleges. We hope that in the future the records made in the various events will be kept, in order
to make a comparison each year with previous contests and to afford a stimulous for practice. Last years field day was not as successful as it might have been owing to the insufficient number of competitors and the lack of arrangements for both the contestants—and the spectators. This year we have a fence around the ball grounds and with suitable arrangements the field day for 1890 may be made one of the most pleasant events of the school year.
Arrangements are being completed for four ball games between our nine and the Emporia College nine. Two of the games will be played here and too at Emporia according to the present plan. The Athletics of the Emporia College seem to be carried on in a more business like manner than in any of the other state colleges. All letters addressed to the college were answered in a prompt and business like manner, and the officers of their athletic association were ready to formulate definite propositions.
This is the kind of spirit we like to see, and we trust that the games played will be pleasant events for both the college of Emporia and K. S. U. Their ball nine will be ready for work in about two weeks.
NOTES.
Baker will not play ball this spring.
The young lady tennis players will make use of the Park court this spring.
The Bicyclists are intending to organize, and if possible get a representative on the Athletic Board at the next annual meeting.
Rowing.
One of the old philosophers once said of all exercises for the development of the constitution and for the promotion of health of body give me rowing. A modern philosopher said the same thing the other day adding that Dolly Graeber furnished fine bons for rowing.

OUR Athletic Column is attracting considerable attention. It is proving a good feature under the management of Mr. Whitman.
In our last week's issue we inadvertently omitted to place the name of Prof. Carruth over the poem "Lieder Ohne Worte," which we copied from the Cosmopolitan.
SPEAKING of poetry, we wish to acknowledge the receipt of a poem called "The Hero of Lost River," by Dan B. Brummitt of Baker University, and editor of the Index. The poem is very well done and is published in a neat little pamphlet. Mr. Brummitt has already made several contributions of poetry to his college papers, and the students receive them well. We wish to extend our thanks for "The Hero of Lost River."
THE Regents have voted $300 towards fitting up the athletic grounds, and the money subscribed by the students will be collected immediately. The matter should be pushed as fast as possible, in order to get the improvement of the grounds well under way this spring. We are unfortunate just now in the athletic line, for having lost several of our best base ball players. The K. S. U. nine will feel lost without Hickey, Curry, or Voorhis. One thing is necessary now, practice.
This is one of the best features inter-collegiate associations of all kinds.
A NUMBER of the colleges of the State are uniting to form a new oratorical association. This is a good scheme, and we hope it will succeed. The present State Oratorical Association is nearly as large as can be made without becoming cumbrous. The formation of a new state association will foster the oratorical spirit and what is more, will make the students of the different colleges comprised in the association better acquainted with each other.

CHANCELLOR SNOW.
K. S. U. HAS A CHANCELLOR AT LAST.
It was announced last Friday afternoon that the Regents had at last elected a Chancellor, and that the choice had fallen unanimously upon our honored Professor Snow. The result had been expected for some time and was not a surprise, but it gave rise to a feeling of profound gratification. That the senior member of the faculty, the man who for twenty-five years had helped to guide the minds of the youth of K. S. U. and build up here in Kansas a university to which its alumni could look back with enthusiasm, and to which every Kansan could point with pride,—that Professor Snow should be chosen for the position seemed eminently fitting and proper. Professor Snow came here in 1866 when the university was founded and at that time wished to become professor of Latin and Greek. Taking the chair of Natural History however, he has built up a department which has become the pride of the university and the State. This year he was prevailed upon to assume the duties of President of the Faculty. Taking this position for the sake of the University, and sacrificing his own wishes in the matter, he has conducted the executive work of the University this year judiciously and efficiently. And now at last, recognizing the sentiment through the state that the chief office in the State University should be filled by one of own faculty, the Regents recognizing the seniority in office, and the tried ability and worth of Professor Snow, have bestowed upon him the responsible office of Chancellor. May the State University prosper and grow under his management. And now for the students' side. Prof. Snow has always been a favorite with the students. Young in heart himself, his sympathies with young men and women are very strong, and his cooperation in everything contributing to the welfare of the students has made him exceedingly popular, and has rendered his influence on the student body very great indeed. So that when the Regents decision was known, every student voted "aye." Last Friday evening the greater portion of the students was assembled at the University attending the various clubs and societies. Notice was soon circulated for the students to gather immediately after the closing of the University at 10 o'clock and march to the residence of the new Chancellor. When the time came, a great band of students formed in line, and with a tremendous yell, started on their way. College songs pierced the atmosphere, not euphoniously, but vigorously at least, and then the whole line forming in column of twos, with uniform step was mending its way down Tennessee street at double quick. Snow,——Snow F.——H.——Snow, was the shout thru
——F.—H.—Snow, was the shout they raised, and to whose regular
cadence their feet kept time Reaching the Chancellor's house the boys gave a yell that would wake the dead, and soon in response to repeated calls Professor Snow appeared, and then what a cheer they raised. After the tumult had subsided a little, a speech was called for, Prof. Snow responded with a good one. Giving three cheers for the Chancellor, and after giving the 'Varsity yell three times, they shouted good night and marched down to Massachusetts street. Forming an immense circle, the students joined hands and danced round under the glare of the electric light, speeches were made by Professors and students, and after a general good time had been participated, in line was formed again for the Santa Fe depot, where Prof Snow was to take the train for Topeka. The same scene of hurrahing and speech making was repeated, when the train came in the students lifted the Chancellor to their shoulders and carried him or board the train, and as the train moved off its roar was lost in the roar and shout of a great mob of enthusiastic students. Marching back to town the circle was formed again, and more speeches more songs and more yells woke the echoes, and finally all adjourned for home. Saturday night the celebration was continued on a still larger scale. Meeting at the Central school the students all marched as before to Prof. Snow's residence where the Old and New Club were meeting. Speeches were made by Prof. Snow and the other professors and the enthusiasm was immense. A big bonfire on Massachusetts street capped the climax. Thus the students welcome Prof. Snow to the Chancellorship. No more gratifying demonstration or more enthusiastic reception could be given any man. Congratulations, Chancellor Snow, and best wishes for the success of your administration is what the KANSAN desires to offer you.
SEVERAL new arrangements have been made in the University by the Regents at their last meeting. The work in the Natural History department is redivided, owing to Prof. Snow's election to the Chancellorship. His chair will be that of Botany and Entomology. Logic and Metaphysics, which have formerly been under the Chancellor's direction will be given to some one else. Mr. S.W. Willinton, formerly of the State Agricultural College, and now of Yale, will be Associate Professor of Geology and Paleontology. Miss Gertrude Crotty has been made assistant in Zoology and Physiology. Prof. Dunlap is raised from Associate Professor in English, to the full chair of English and Belles Lettres. A new course to be known as the Latin-English course is also spoken of.

TO KEATS.
When young Keests dy iny dying in Rome he asked his friend Severn that the only epitaph on his tomb might be: "Here lies one whose name was writ in water."
Great Keets, thou sleepest well in Caesar's ancient city:
Yet must his heart be moved to pity
Who stands beside thy tomb,
That thus thy fire-winged spirit
Passed away in gloom—
In agony of failure and in bitter pain,
Crying, "Writ in water, only, is my name!"
Knownest thou that now, though alt too late
For thine own moulal hearing, men do call thee great!
The present for the past would yet atone;
And not on tablets of enduring brass and polished stone.
Pressed deep by graver's chisel, is thy name alone,
But in the hearts of men-O greatest, dearest fame—
Is writ in characters of gold, -thy name!
—The Pulse.
EXCHANGE NOTES.
The Washburn Reporter has enlarged its pages. We are glad to see this improvement in our enterprising neighbor. We have often wondered why the Reporter was not made a larger paper before. We wish the best success to it in its new departure.
One gratifying feature of the new catalogue is the announcement that in the future the English or first preparatory year will be abandoned. We have always been of opinion that in the attempt to combine the functions of a college with those of a kindergarten our beloved institution was trying to cover too many eggs, and the discontinuance of the English course has been a consummation devoutly to be wished.—Washburn Reporter.
The selection of Prof. Snow to be Chancellor of the Kansas State University, if it is made, will be an admirable one. If the Regents feel that the sentiment in favor of a Kansas man at the head of the University is so strong that it must be heeded, they can find no man in Kansas whose appointment will be apt to give such general satisfaction, and it is doubtful if a more suitable selection could be made by going beyond the Kansas borders. K.C. Times.
The boating crews are practicing daily. Dolly Graeber is furnishing the boats cheap.
Life in a modern college has incidents, work and recreation never dreamed of by the institutions of a century ago. The average age of a college graduate was then eighteen years, now it is from twenty-one to twenty-three. The best assignable cause is this: a boy of from fourteen to eighteen years can not do the work required of the modern youth. Colleges have ceased to be intellectual hot-houses and have become, for better or worse, a miniature life. The politics, the athletics and the curriculum aim to turn out mien and women with a practical knowledge of the world, of humanity and of books.—The Pulse.

To discuss the live issues of the day should be the aim of each literary society. We have sufficient to live in the present and from just and unbiased opinion and conclusions on the great questions of today without reviewing the things of the past that have been settled long ago. What good can be derived from old rehash of the same subject for centuries. The human race will advance, and in the great struggle bring up the questions and difficulties of the time for solution. These must be settled and settled aright before the best conclusions are reached. We ought to get awaken-to this fact and be ready to discuss these questions as they come to us. Baker Beacon.
Speaking of encores reminds us of the senseless custom, which prevails in country school 'lyceums' and in many western literary societies, of applauding every performer. Bestowed in this indiscriminate manner applause becomes valueless. Performers learn not to care for it, and the rowdy element which is present in almest every gathering of any size, soon begins to vary the monotony by the interpolation of the 'rhythmic clap.' stamping of feet, cat calls, and other sounds characteristic of the animal in question. Unless a performance possesses positive merit, it should not receive applause. The mere 'effort to please' is not enough to entitle one to the same token of appreciation which is given to another who by close application has produced what is really meritorious. sometime an entire evening may well be allowed to pass with no applause at all, simply because all have done fairly well. On another occasion one, two or more speakers may have made better preparation and hence may give superior performances. Only such deserve this recognition. Country school methods should have no place in college litary societies. —College Life.

FREDRICK WARD.
In "The Mountebank" the actor has opportunities to exercise versatility of talent. His powers are seen at their best in the pathetic and emotional and the ability to portray the passions in all their intensity is Mr. Warde's crowning glory. It is true that he is "as far above the rant of the ordinary tragedian as the snow-capped mountains are above the clouds" which fail to scale them. His acting in the scene where feelings of the husband and father are wrought to their utmost tension was worthy of any man who was ever upon the stage. The depth of pathos, the extremity of grief, the smothered agony that seems, rather than is uttered, at times, made a picture that brought tears to eyes unused to weep and proved the actor not only an artist a genius.
In the rapid changes "The Mountebank" calls for on the part of the leading character, Mr. Ward maintained himself admirably. His voice is full deep and well controlled, and his manner unexceptionable, while a profound appreciation of the author's most deep and subtle meaning adds unusual and graceful attractiveness to his rendition of his part. His sudden change from suffering to assumed lightness of bearing und of heart was a masterpiece of acting and over all he gracefully threw an unrent vail of classic beauty.
In the medley of characters the piece embraces the other ladies and gentlemen of the company, well met the expectations and hopes of the audience, and the ladies particularly bore themselves well. The company is worthy of the leading gentleman, and last nights performance has heightened the desire of the play loving portion of this community, to witness the rendition of the great play of "Virginius" tonight. —Pueblo Colo.

JO-HE.
If the readers of this article imagine from the heading of his article that they are going to read the history of an oriental "John," reveling in his opium den or wash-house they can banish such ideas, for the name is decidedly American being patented to prevent imposition and fraud in imitating the natural remedy that is regarded by thousands all over the Union as the greatest discovery in medical science of the century. The name is the reversal of the first two letters of the given and surname of the fortunate discoverer, Henry Jones. Four years ago Mr. H. B. Jones discovered on his farm in Washington county, Texas, a spring of oil flowing from a mass of petrified wood and moss. It is of dark color, heavy constituency and emits an offensive odor. It partakes somewhat of the nature of crude petroleum and is very penetrating, reaching the seat of any desease that flesh is heir to and is a soothing and healing balm in cuts, burns, scalds and all skin deseases. It is highly magnetic and electric, and, if we are to judge human testimony, it never fails to give both relief and cure. Mr. W. P. Bayes of St. Louis is general agent for the states of Missouri, Arkansas, Illinois and Kansas and is rapidly establishing agencies in all the prominent cities of those states. Already Kansas is represented by offices at Leavenworth, Topeka, Independence and Lawrence, every one of which is meeting with wonderful success. So confident of its merits are the proprietors, that they give free applications to their various sanitariums to convince the incredulous public, and if Lawrence is a sample of the public confidence in its merits, Jo-He has thousands of votaries. We found the office and application rooms crowded with patients waiting for treatment. The oil is put up in hermetically sealed cans and enough oil of sassafras is used to counteract the natural odor of the oil and render it pleasing to the smell. The Lawrence branch was only established last January and now it is crowded with eager patients who give flattering testimonials of the value of the wonderful oil. The proprietors will guarentee a perfect cure in any case where the oil can penetrate to the seat of the disease and they have yet to find the first disease where that cannot be done. They have already effected thousands of cures accounted miraculous and are piling up testimonials from people of unquestioned veracity all over the union in endless quantities. The agent here will be pleased to give free applications to those who want to give it a trial. From present indications the discoverer of this wonderful remedy will be remembered by future ages for giving to the world a remedy to which thousands owe their lives. Nature does wonderful things in her wonderful interior laboratory, but she yet has to produce anything to compare with the wonderful oil. Jo-He. Write the agent at Lawrence for information and give it a trial.

The chapter of the Phi Beta Kappa society, for which a charter was granted our University at the National Council of the society last fall, has been organized, Professors Snow, J. H. Canfield, Robinson, Wilcox, Blake, A. G. Canfield and Winkler being the charter members. Last Wednesday the election of undergraduate members from the Senior class was held, and Esterly, Liddeke, Hill, Slosson and Miss Goodell were the recipients of the honor. Though the Phi Beta Kappa is a very old society and very widely known, some wrong notions seem to be current in regard to it. It is essentially an open society, no pledge of secrecy being usually put upon its members, and its aim is defined by its constitution to be "the promotion of scholarship and friendship among the graduates of American colleges." Election to membership is the basis of scholarship, though not necessarily determined by the grades of the student. Not more than one-fourth of any class may be chosen. The election of the undergraduate members is to be held regularly in the future, we believe, immediately after the semi-annual examinations at the end of the first term.
Athletic Column.
R. R. WHITMAN ... EDITOR
Let each student show his loyalty for University projects by attending the performance at the Opera House this evening, given for the Athletic Fund. Each student ought to feel a personal interest in having a suitable athletic field, for it is a matter which concerns each one. In the first instance it will be a place for all students to engage in athletic work under the most favorable conditions. This will tend toward creating a higher standard in athletics and consequently in the formation of much stronger athletic teams. With the increase of excellence in athletics, the development of the finer points of such work, and the ability to cope successfully with teams of recognized standing, will come an increase of interest and enthusiasm in the teams and athletics in general and with every victory over outside clubs an enthusiasm and love for our own University which will bind all students closer together, and will determine the influence of the University in the future.
With a suitable athletic field secured will come the need of a gymnasium which will then be much more readily obtained for the need of one will be much more apparent. Above all, if the students of the University work energetically and with enthusiasm for these things which are deemed necessary, help will come from other sources which would not come at all if the students simply waited for an appropriation or something to turn up. We have made a beginning in the right direction, the faculty are working with us, the athletic board is hard at work, but whether the work is accomplished rests on the interest shown and the work done by each student personally, and so let each student make himself a committee of one to work actively for the athletic field and the athletics of the University.
Samples of tennis and baseball caps in the University colors have been received from Wright and Ditson, Boston, and may be seen at Field & Hargis' Book Store. The colors corn yellow and blue work up very nicely and these caps are as handsome as any we have ever seen. We do not believe that the beauty of our colors has been duly appreciated. Field & Hargis will order a large number of the caps which with the belts of the combination colors, which they will sell almost at cost, making the cap and belt the cheapest sold considering the quality of the goods. The athletic Board will undoubtedly furnish the college teams with these caps and belts as soon as it is possible to secure a supply of them. It is also to be hoped that each student engaged in athletic work will procure one of these caps and belts, for no other colors should be worn. We ought to make our colors as well known in the west as those of Harvard and Yale are in the east, and the only way to do this is to display the colors on every occasion.
NOTES.
The Athletic Board is arranging a programme for field day.
The ball teams got in some good prac last Friday and Srturday.
The weather so far this spring has not been very favorable for athletics.
Manager Armstrong is industriously trying to arrange ball games with the other colleges.
A tennis match is being arranged for between our team and a team from E. Dora'o Teen tennis club.
Prof. Blake has posted the plans of the new Amherst Athletic Field on the Bullitten Board. These grounds when completed will be among the finest owned by any college.
A match game of ball will be arranged with the Haskell Institute nine as soon as the weather permits. The Indians are great players and say they are confident of beating the University boys.
Our colors are peculiarly appropriate for the state University of Kansas. Yellow is symbolic of the enormous corn, pumpkins and sunflowers which are the pride of the state, and blue denotes the kind of ribbons that Kansas carries off in all its competitions with other states.

The two literary societies have determined to give no June exhibition programs. Our Commencement exercises are so numerous and long drawn out already that any shortening, is a relief, and the literary society special programs at the end of the year do not add particularly to the attractions of Commencement week. The audiences drawn to hear the programs presented are not usually large. The fact is the University is out growing that sort of thing. The old fashioned literary society "exhibition" is an antiquated relic of the past, and is both useless and out of date. Better let the literary societies undertake to accomplish good work all through the term than to let things drag till towards Commencement and then come out with a hurrah. Besides, the literary societies have suffered the fate that inevitably comes when courses are divided, and students taking special work find it to their interest to join special clubs, they experience a great difficulty in inducing the older and more experienced students to join and remain with them. Nowadays in order to make it worth while for such students to enter the general literary societies, they must be made to see that the work done all through the year is of a high character, is not perfunctory or routine in its nature, and that it can be made a positive advantage to them. To accomplish this, continual good work and constant application are required, and the old fashioned regulation Commencement "exhibition" is better done away with, as a useless excrescence.
THE following letter has been received from Mr. C.M. Enns, who graduated from the Law Department here last year. Mr. Enns is a man of experience and scholarly attainments, and his good opinion gives us very great pleasure:
KANSAS CITY, Mo. April 25th.
Dear Sir:—Kindly change my address to C. M. Enns, in care Central Loan & Debenture Co., Kansas City, Mo. Let me congratulate you upon remarkable improvement in your paper since beginning of this school year. I like your moderation and tolerance.
Yours truly,
C. M. Enns.
LAST Friday afternoon was quite an occasion for Lawrence. The laying of the corner stone of the new High school building was performed with Masonic ceremonies. Over 2,000 school children marched in line to the beat of numerous drums, and in their presence and that of a large assemblage of citizens the corner stone was laid. The University was represented by Regent Spangler who delivered the oration, and by Chancellor Snow, who gave a rousing splendid address. The building when completed will be the largest and finest High School building in the State, and will be used exclusively for High School purposes. When the Lawrence High School becomes fully established in its new quarters it will be made virtually a preparatory school for the University. At the last meeting of the board of Regents a resolution adopted by the faculty was unanimously ratified, recommending students coming here with back work to make up, to do so at the Lawrence High School. They can do this and at the same time take up their University work. It is proposed that this school shall be able to completely fit a student to enter the Freshman class in the University in any one of the collegiate courses. It will thus stand in the same relation to Kansas University that the Ann Arbor High School does to the University of Michigan. The step the city has taken in voting bonds for the building of this High School means much for the University.
COLLEGE Life prints a sample of the various circulars which so many students receive in the spring, offering them work for the summer vacation. The firms which send these out can generally be relied upon to be unreliable. Several students here, including ourselves, have received letters from a Kansas City firm, similar to the one given below. They write in a confidential way, well calculated to catch the unwary student, who has a good deal of faith in the promises of the wicked world. As a general thing, the book agency business is neither a pleasant nor a profitable one, and we would advise students to steer clear of it. It is probable that a large number of K. S. U. students will find it necessary to work during the summer vacation, but the offers for book-canvassers, which are so
often sent to students about this time, are seldom trustworthy. Below is the sample in College Life to which we referred.
Dear Sir:—We are advised by one of your neighbors that you are looking for profitable occupation. In view of this, we make you a liberal business proposition, to sell "The Road to Heaven," which please read very carefully, and write us what you think of it.
"The Road to Heaven" is the most remarkable Book ever written. It is a great Moral Educator, published expressly to meet the urgent need of every home. It is rich in Purity, Goodness, Nobility and Greatness, and strewn with abundance of Religion, Pathos, Humor, Philosophy and sweet Sentiment.
It is bound in the most sumptuous manner, and the numerous and highly artistic illustrations are all on steel, for which we have paid the generous sum of $19,000. You can see at a glance that "The Road to Heaven" is having a tremendous sale.
Where does it sell? Among your friends and neighbors, rich and poor, learned and unlearned, to farmers, mechanics, ministers, lawyers, merchants and students, in the smallest villages and largest cities, and wherever men and women live, who feel that they have souls to be saved and brains to be instructed. No man or woman can consistently refuse to buy a copy of "The Road to Heaven."
Lev. Joaash Brown, Omaha, took five orders in the P. O. when the pros came. Rev. Stonewall Jack son (colored) Texas, took thirteen orders among his congregation, after services. Sold seven to one subscriber for presents for his children.
Why does this book sell so fast?
1st It is not the mere promiscuous scissoring of an editor, but the honest brain work of a man of splendid genius.
2d "The Road to Heaven" is going to the Mission Stations in Africa, and we have just sent 400 copies to Anam, China. The Greek Missionaries in Siam, will also be supplied with the book.
3d. Copies have been sent to the Vatican for the approval of the Supreme Pontiff, and we are daily awaiting a favorable report from the Propoganda (sic.)
Give it a trial. Your brains are your best capital. Use them. Don't be timid. We mean business, and as your neighbor said you would reply promptly, we shall expect your answer with order for outfit for "The Road to Heaven" immediately.
With the excellent advantages for rowing every student in the University should take a boatride once a week.

EXCHANGE NOTES.
La Bellevue for April has a long sad piece on "The Noachian Kataklasm.
The Pacific Pharos is one of the liveliest and brightest of our exchanges, and is always interesting.
The Anner and the Hesperian are very outspoken in favor of prohibition in their respective states. You will generally find the college papers on the right side in a question like that.
The Baker Index urges the writing of a history of the University. Why would not this be a good scheme at the K. S. U. If some one would take upon himself the task he would be able to form a very interesting and valuable book.
The literary societies of the school are doing fine work. The young men are growing eloquent in the discussions of the leading questions of the day, while the young ladies, just as young ladies should, are learning to discuss fluently, but modestly, the current events of the day, interspersed with literary subjects, essays, rehearsals, readings, etc.-La Bellevue.
At last Francis H. Snow has been elected Chancellor of the State University, in which institution he has long held the position of Professor of Natural History. We rejoice that the difficulty over the Chancellorship has been finally settled by the selection of a man who cannot fail to be acceptable to all parties and persons. Prof. Snow's reputation as a scientist and an educator is not confined to our own State, but has won recognition from scholars and students in all parts of our nation. Prof Snow's devotion to the University is ardent and unfaltering, and we are confident that under his administration the institution will continue to prosper and advance in a manner worthy of our great State of Kansas.—Washburn Reporter,
The Record has great admiration for Prof. Snow, of the State University, but it has grave doubts about the wisdom of putting him at the head of that institution. Prof. Snow is a specialist. He is a book worm, a student, absorbed too long and too greatly in one line of research, we fear, to fit him for the general and active duties of Chancellor.—Marion Record.
The need of good academic instruction becomes more and more apparent. Those who spend from three to five years in college and three years in professional preparation, have to compete with those of their own age who, without the college training, have had seven or eight years' experience and, if not dunces, have a good hold on business by the time the college student is prepared to begin. Now in seven cases out of ten, if the academic instruction has had the necessary element of good sense in it, the boy has enough capital stock of judgment to go to work. To get a sufficient number of people to take the college course is a settled matter in Germany; for the most desirable situations, only those who have received a degree are eligible. But in our own country, the bread and butter question places many college graduates at a sad disadvantage.
Annex.
This only goes to show that it writer does not know Prof. Snow. While of late years he has been a specialist and has spent more time studying Entomology, and especially the subject of beetles and gathered the best collection of the latter in America, he is neither a book worm, nor a man of one idea. His work for years, has covered in a general way, the whole field of natural history. During this time he has studied all the other departments of the University, perhaps more closely than any other member of the faculty, and our newspaper friends who meet him will find him as well informed on the topics of the day and general discussions of the period, as any man man in the State. Prof. Snow was fitted at Williams College for the Congregational ministry, but after completing an exhaustive classical course, became interested in "bugs" and took a special course under Prof. Agassiz for a year or two, going direct from Boston to the University of Kansas, when it was first organized in 1866. Here for years he very successfully taught all branches of mathematics, chemistry, physics, physiology and natural history, and possibly for a short time the modern languages. Although his work has been so long in special paths, yet we believe Prof. Snow to be one of the most thoroughly equipped educators, and splendidly qualified men in the nation, for a position such as he now assumes.—Clay Center Dispatch.
J.L.TAYLOR & SON, LIVERY AND HACK STABLES
Underwear for summer wear at Abe Levy's.
For which does a man deserve more credit—for the power to learn easily and display to best advantage what he learns, for for the 'grit' withr which he overcomes a natural sluggishness of intellect, and learns in spite of difficulty? In other words, should the 'smart' student or the 'plodder' receive the higher praise? It is a curious fact that many—perhaps most—people would rather be thought 'bright' than industrious, just as a distinguished ancestry and inherited wealth are preferred to 'self-making'; just as many would rather be thought dishonest then stupid. There is a positive danger in the possession of native brilliancy—the danger that the possessor may come to rely on it, relax his efforts and finally fall behind in the race. A proverb has it that 'Honor men are never heard of after commencement day,' and, while this need not be true, it is true that mere talent without hard work will not make a man successful. One is in serious danger of final failure when it can be said of him truly, 'He is smart and he knows it.' — College Life.

JO-HE.
If the readers of this article imagine from the heading of this article that they are going to read the history of an oriental "John," reveling in his opium den or wash-house they can banish such ideas, for the name is decidedly American being patented to prevent imposition and fraud in imitating the natural remedy that is regarded by thousands all over the Union as the greatest discovery in medical science of the century. The name is the reversal of the first two letters of the given and surname of the fortunate discoverer, Henry Jones. Four years ago Mr. H. B. Jones discovered on his farm in Washington county, Texas, a spring of oil flowing from a mass of petrified wood and moss. It is of dark color, heavy constituency and emits an offensive odor. It partakes somewhat of the nature of crude petroleum and is very penetrating, reaching the seat of any desease that flesh is heir to and is a soothing and healing balm in cuts, burns, scalds and all skin deseases. It is highly magnetic and electric, and, if we are to judge human testimony, it never fails to give both relief and cure. Mr. W. P. Bayes of St. Louis is general agent for the states of Missouri, Arkansas, Illinois and Kansas and is rapidly establishing agencies in all the prominent cities of those states. Already Kansas is represented by offices at Leavenworth, Topeka, Independence and Lawrence, every one of which is meeting with wonderful success. So confident of its merits are the proprietors, that they give free applications at their various sanitariums to convince the incredulous public, and if Lawrence is a sample of the public confidence in its merits, Jo-He has thousands of votaries. We found the office and application rooms crowded with patients waiting for treatment. The oil is put up in hermetically sealed cans and enough oil of sassafras is used to counteract the natural odor of the oil and render it pleasing to the smell. The Lawrence branch was only established last January and now it is crowded with eager patients who give flattering testimonials of the value of the wonderful oil. The proprietors will guarentee a perfect cure in any case where the oil can penetrate to the seat of the disease and they have yet to find the first disease where that cannot be done. They have already effected thousands of cures accounted miraculous and are pilling up testimonials from people of unquestioned veracity all over the union in endless quantities. The agent here will be pleased to give free applications to those who want to give it a trial. From present indications the discoverer of this wonderful remedy will be remembered by future ages for giving to the world a remedy to which thousands owe their lives. Nature does wonderful things in her wonderful interior laboratory, but she yet has to produce anything to compare with the wonderful oil. Jo-He. Write the agent at Lawrence for information and give it a trial.
