KAPPA ALPHA THETA
One of those informal social gatherings always productive of so much pleasure, took place Thursday evening at the home of Miss May Walker. The guests assembled at an early hour and in the presence of Theta's charming grace felt that "joy comes, grief goes we know not how" and the hours sped all too quickly in dancing and playing cards. Refreshments were prettily served and merriment reigned supreme. But the time came to depart as it always will, and each wended homeward feeling that another pleasant event had been added to the happiest recollections of college life.
THE SWEETPEA'S PLEASURE TRIP
Sweetpea's Pleasure Trip presented ed at the Opera House last Friday night was a decided success. The play was a translation from the French, translated and adapted by Prof. A. G. Canfield. In addition to the pleasing plot of the play, life and vivacity was given a number of spicy local hits. It also possessed what is seldom seen in a comedy, a thread of human philosophy running all through it. The leading part, that of a fat butcher who had made a considerable fortune at his business was taken by Prof. A. G. Canfield and was well done. That the Prof. should be a success in such a part is the more remarkable where we consider his usual graceful dignity. The part of Mrs. Sweetpea was taken by Miss Hattie McCaguen who sustained the role of an old lady with much more effect than might have been expected. The part of Miss Dorothy Sweetpea, the only living descendant of the aforesaid two Sweetpeas, was taken by Miss Marcella Howland and could scarcely have been improved. The part ot villain, journalist, dude, over and philosopher was taken by Prof. W.H. Carruth. Prof. Carruth was perhaps as much at his base on the stage as any other member of the company and sustained his part well. R. R. Whitman, very naturally, played the part of a capitalist and a successful rival of Prof. Carruth for the hand of Dorothy. It is believed however that Prof. Carruth is still "laying" or him and will probably pay him off about examination time. Thus to the compensations of this world balance each other.
Harold Barnes played the part of George Washington Crow, a "culud gentlemen" in the employ of Mr. Sweetpea and did it with good affect. Almost his only fault was a tendency now and then to mix a little Dutch and Irish with his brogue. Harvey White, as a clerk of Sweetpea, reminded you of the humple Uriah Heep. Roberts and Chapman had inferior parts but did them well. Altogether the entertainment was quite a success. Those who attended enjoyed themselves and the Athletic Association is about $75 better off.
The Botany class began work in the laboratory Wednesday. They complain, as all classes do, that the work this year is being made especially difficult.
WE WIN.
Hurrah! Hurrah!!
A special to the KANSAN this morning from Lincoln, announces that Kansas has won first place in the Inter-State Oratorical Contest and Illinois the second.
PI BETA PHIL
Hurrah! Hurrah!!!
After Prof. Blackmar's lecture a luncheon was served by Miss Mamie Snow. This was only the beginning of festivities. During the evening the Pi Phis entertained the Kappa Kappa Gammas at the home of Miss Emma White. They played the part of gallants with so brave a grace that nearly all the Kappas fell in love, a thing which was never heard of before. Beside the young ladies, another pretty feature of the occasion was the presentation to the Pi Phis by the Kappas of a basket of carnation pinks, the fraternity flower of the Pi Phis. Such mingling together of the members of different University societies is to be commended and we hope to see the good example let by the ladies of Pi Beta Phi, quite extensively followed.
The young ladies of Pi Beta Phi held their regular meeting last Saturday afternoon at the residence of Prof. Snow. They were addressed by Prof. Blackmar who talked about Spanish missions in southern California. The Spaniards were the most hardy explorers in the early history of this country and had got a good foot hold in California before the English were very firmly established along our eastern coast. Many interesting ruins of these old Spanish missions are yet to be seen. Prof. Blackmar's residence in California coupled with his general familiarity with history gave him extensive acquaintance with his subject which he discussed in a very interesting way.

Arrangements have been completed for a series of four ball games between our nine and that of the college of Emporia. The first two games will be played here next Friday and Saturday, May 9th and 10th, and the last two at Emporia Friday and Saturday May 30 and 31st. Seats will be erected on the ball grounds for the games here, and everything done to make the series a pleasant one The college of Emporia has a well organized club and is showing great enterprise in arranging games for it this spring.
Friday, June 6th is the date set by the Athletic Board for Field Day. The exercises will probably take the place on the ball grounds, where seats will be erected. The following is the programme as adopted by the Board:
m. —Tennis Tournament. prize $10,00 to be divided between the winners of the singles and doubles.
Messrs. Sherman, Hall and Bowersock form the committee which is to have general charge of field day and they will put forth every effort to make the day successful.

The tennis team goes to El Dorado next Saturday for a series of match games. Teams from Wichita and Topeka will probably be at El Dorado at the same time, and the winning team and player may safely be said to be the champions of the state. The El Dorado team is a good one having won second place at Excelsior last fall and having also defeated the Topeka players last year.
If the trains run conviently our team may possibly stop at Emporia for a game on Friday afternoon.
Graeber's two rowing shells are rented for each afternoon from two o'clock until eight, and our rowing teams are doing some splendid work just now. There are six teams and the time is so arranged that each team practices every afternoon. With the good excellent course on the river, this feature of athletic work should take a prominent place here, and from the interest shown this spring it seems certain that it will. It is to be hoped that next year K. S. U. may have some four or eight oared rowing shells and regularly equipped crews. The following are the teams now practicing. Brown and Barber, Hadley and Robinson; Royster and Riddle; Palmer and Robinsons; Peaurs and Fullerton and Roberts and Peabody. A prize of five dollars has been offered for a race on field day.
A tennis tournament will be held
on the West Lawrence courts this afternoon and to-morrow to select the players for the games at El Dorado next Saturday. The player winning first place will play the singles and with the player winning second place will form the team for the doubles. Play will begin to-day at half-past two o'clock. The following players have entered their names to Mr. Sherman at the time of writing and there will undoubtedly be several others. Those entered are Bowersock, Brooks, Canfield, Sherman, Sears, Nourse and Whitman.
The ball nine will play a match game with the Indians at Haskell Saturday at three o'clock. The Haskell nine possess a good battery but are not extra strong in the field. The game will be interesting and there should be a good attendance from among the students. The game is to be played on the Haskell grounds.
Arrangements are being made to have the crack tennis team of the Kansas City Club play a match game here in the near future. The Kansas City team always takes a high place in the tournaments of the Southwestern Association.
The ball nine will probably play a match game with the nine from William Jewell College, at Chelsea Park, in about two weeks. Definite arrangements have not been made yet but will be in a day or two. William Jewell College is located at Liberty, Mo., about twenty-five miles from K. C. Their orator won the last Missouri oratorial contest.
The money subscribed for the Athletic Field Fund is being rapidly collected. When this is all in the fund will amount to about seven hundred dollars. Thus the good work goes on.

THE student that pays the best attention in the recitation is the one on whom the greatest good will be accomplished. Nothing is harder to do than to try to pound some fact or principle in the mind of some inattentive pupil. Such students never make the strong, stalwart men in the progress of the world. They simply live and die. No one, save one or two, mourns their decease. They are only ciphers and on the left hand of the figure at that. They are worse than nothing. When attached to any one they are not helpers but will not permit true development. They are like a division by ten. To be something in this world should be the desire of every student. And the best way to be sure of success is to make and adopt a habit of being attentive at all times so that you will be wide awake to every result and circumstance. It is the wide awake men and women that do the marvelous things. It is the attentive person who sees the development of nature and thus discovers the laws. To be wide awake means success.—Beacon.
The question whether a college paper may properly discuss political topics is being discussed by several of our exchanges. Perhaps it may be repulsive to the taste of some to do so, as they claim; but we sincerely doubt if it isn't affectation, based on puerile modesty rather than upon a comprehensive conception of what is really appropriate. A college paper is not published for the pleasure of infants, but rather as a medium of public expression for educated young men and women upon all topics of information and culture.—Drury Mirror.
This is all very well, but it is not a puerile modesty which should restrain the average college paper from discussing general politics, during the time when a young man is going to school is not the time for him to undertake to give mature
and grave decisions on political matters. It is time for him to read and study and think about them. It is the time for him to examine what others have said and are saying about politics. His mind is in the formative period, and not until his opinions are fixed and mature, in his judgment worth anything. With the wealth of newspapers, college students has abundant opportunity to look up political news without making it necessary for the college paper to discuss it. The premature opinions on politics and government often expressed in college papers are commonly called by the sarcastic, "callow." No, the college paper is a peculiar institution. Its business is to interest and inform its readers of what is going on in colleges and among students. Each paper is expected to be an organ especially devoted to the interest of the institution from which it comes, and if it an swers that purpose well that is all that is demanded or expected o it.
THE following clipping was handed to us the other day by one of the professors, and is astonishing indeed. We have heard of men plagiizing from famous speeches and from addresses by prominent statesmen, but the Nebraska orator is charged with plagiization from common every day college orators. This is too bad. Every year we hear of such occurrences, and the discovery of this, if the charge be true will be a blow to Nebraska Wesleyan and should bury her orator out of sight:
"Something of a sensation was created here, to day, by a disclosure in an evening paper in reference to the coming inter-state college contest, which will be held May 1. Nebraska is represented by George A. Ferguson, of the Wesleyan university at Lincoln, an... he is now in Chicago under training. He is a young minister, and was chosen in the usual way through a contest with representatives from other colleges in the state. It has been discovered now that his oration is chiefly a plagiarism from the orations of Charles I. Coffin, of Asbury, Ind., University, and Owen Morris, of Carleston college, Minnesota, delivered by them at the interstate meeting at Jacksonville, Ill. The state association is likely to be called upon to take some action in the matter."
Once again as the end of the year approaches, we wish to make a slight protest against the habit of over doing Commencement. The state of things is just this. There are two weeks at the end of the term which are virtually wasted, examination week and Commencement week. We believe time taken up in the examinations is a waste of time but shall not discuss that point now. What we wish to protest against is the filling up of over a week with a lot of senseless exercises, whose only value is to wear everybody out. It is a fact that a large per cent of our students leave Lawrence immediately after the spring examinations, since the Commencement exercises possess no
particular interest to them, and if they remain in Lawrence they can do nothing, and at the same time have a week's extra expenses to pay, which can be saved by leaving directly examinations are over. It is also a fact, that a large number of the professors start off on their vacation trips just as soon as the term's work is closed, and do not remain for Commencement. Now why is this thus? The reason is plain. We have too much Commencement. The exercises are spread over a great length of time and are far more numerous than are necessary. Take for instance the schedule of exercises for this spring as printed is this year's catalogue:
May 29 to June 5, Thursday to Thursday, inclusive—Annual Examinations.
clusive—Annual Examinations,
June 5. Thursday—Commencement Concert,
School of Music.
June 6. Friday, 8 P. M.—Anniversary, Literary Societies.
June 8. Sunday, 8 P. M.—Baccalaureate Sermon.
June 9. Monday, 10 A. M.—Anniversary Exercises, School of Pharmacy.
June 9 Monday, 10 B. P. M. University Oration, an Address before the Literary Societies.
June 10, Tuesday, 10 A. M.—Commencement Exercises, Law School.
8 M.-Oration before the Law School.
June 11, Wednesday, 10 A. M.—Class-day Exercises.
3 P. M.—Annual Meeting of the Alumni Association.
8 P. M.—Oration Annu
8 P. M. - Alumni Oration.
8 P, M — Alumni Celebration
8 P, M Thursday, 10 A, M — Commencement
Exercises.
Now here are twelve different exercises, coming in rapid succession, and which are evidently intended to represent the University in all its departments. But is this necessary. Is it necessary at least to spread over so much surface what might be condensed into two or three days. A reform in this line is gradually working its way into all the larger American colleges in the way of simplifying the exercises Commencement. We do not advocate the German method in which there is no "Commencement" at all as we understand the word, but we do advocate and believe that the long, tedious, and useless parade which occupies the last week of the term is an unmitigated bore. What is the reform we would suggest? Just this, cut the Commencement exercises down to three days. On the Sunday before Commencement let there be a Baccalaureate sermon. On Monday let there be Class Day exercises, and if necessary a University oration. On Tuesday let there be the regular Commencement, and in the after noon the Alumni reunion and banquet. But how about the literary societies and their exhibitions? Let them decide every year, as they have done this year, not to give any. Literary Society June "exhibitions" are a chestnut at K. S. U. Again somebody exclaims, how about the commencement exercises of the different schools. The Law and Pharmacy schools, and the rest,—how are they going to be represented? Easily enough. Let all their individual graduating exercises be condensed into one. Let the graduates all file up on Commencement day and receive their diplomas in a body. Let a representative or two from each department or school, deliver brief
orations, or better still, let a distinguished orator be selected to address them. Thus would our Commencement exercises be simplified and condensed into what is actually necessary, and money, and time, which amounts to the same thing would be saved. We do not flatter ourselves that what we say will have any influence towards the end we desire, but if it wakes up the students a little to the real common sense of the case a reform may come some time.

TRIOLETS.
Triolets to life should slip
Like a blossom blowing;
Soft as petals pout the lip
Triolets to life should slip.
Scarce a fairy's finger-tip
When on April almond trees
Blooms unfold them slowly
Triothets must breathe of these
Subtle-sweet as almond trees.
Murmuruous of brooding bees

The Review came out with a good number Friday. We are inclined to think each number is something of an improvement over the last. The article by Col. Moore on Hamlet is especially valuable.
The Coup d'Etat and the College Rambler come from the same state, and resemble each other very much in their character and general made up as well as in the color of their covers. The College Rambler comes to us this month with an excellent article on "Large College and Small." We wish we could publish it, as it is worth reading.
The Coup d'Etat in its last issue gives a handsome cut of a new building which Knox is to have. It is to be built from funds contributed by two of the literary societies and by the alumni. Each of the societies gives $7,000, and the total cost of the building will be between $35,000 and $40,000.
Knox has reason to congratulate herself upon the degree of good feeling that pervades her atmosphere and the general relations of friendliness that exist between her students. It is a healthy state of circumstances and one that justly deserves mention and comment in these days when nearly every institution is possessed of two or more factions, each striving for prestige or college honors, and in the conflicts which arise, tending to create a hostile sentiment among those who by every interest should work in harmony. What is known as "college politics" and its attendance evils is at present almost unknown at Knox. How long this happy state of affairs is destined to continue none can tell, for certainly the political pot has boiled as furiously here in times past as any where, but judging from the animosity displayed in the factiona quarrels of several colleges which we have in mind, we have good reason to pray to be delivered from their evils as long as possible. In some places these quarrels are precipitated by opposition to the secretes societies, based upon grievance either real or fancied; at other colleges politices are found to be quit as rotten from entirely different causes, and in all cases there ipt to be quite as much blame at tached to one side of the dispute a to the other. — Coup d'Etat.

Marlande Clarke as The Silver King.
Marlande Clarke, who plays "The Silvet King" Monday night and who was especially engaged for this part by Mr. Macoy on account of the great versatility shown by Mr. Clarke in impersonating successfully such totally different roles as "The Dude." with Miss Minnie Palmer; "Macari," in "Called Back;" "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde;" "Matthias," in Henry Irving's great play of "The Belis," was when in London, England, a special protege of the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, prime minister of England, and besides being elected a professor of the Royal Polytechnic, London, before he was 21 years of age, toured England with Lady Seabright and gained a most enviable reputation by taking the first prize and the gold medal for dramatic reciting, open to all England, having to compete before an audience of 3,000 people in the Dome Brighton, England, December 1, 1880. He also delivered a public lecture on the play of Hamlet at the St. James Hall, London, on which occasion the celebrated Dean Stanley private secretary to the Queen was in the chair, and they spoke in the most eulogistic terms of Mr. Marlande Clarke.

THE TQPEKA EXCURSION.
Two Hundred and Fifty University Boys in Topeka, Kansas Avenue—We Had a Big Time and We did the University Proud.
The enthusiasm manifested here Friday morning May 2nd when the report came from Lincoln, that Kansas had won first place in the Inter-State Oratorical contest was a prelude to the demonstrations of Monday and Monday night. It showed that students of the University can appreciate a victory for the students of Kansas even if it comes at the hands of a rival. One of the first things that was suggested after it was announced that Naylor had won was "Lets go up and congratulate him." Communication was at once begun with Washburn. It was learned that Naylor would be in Topeka Monday. Arrangements were at once made with the Santa Fe by which a 75c. round trip rate to Topeka could be secured to the students. Two or three of the boys consulted with the faculty, and resolved to run an excursion to Topeka if it could be done. Accordingly Monday morning when the students came up the hill the bulletin boards, wainseoting and other available places were ornamented with posters which read somewhat as follows: "K. S. U. excursion to Washburn College, 75 cents." "Kansas Wins—We Celebrate." "We'll show'em how," "Naylor Wins-Kansas Wins—We Win," Rock-chalk-jay-hawk K. U. u also had a conspicuous place. The boys thought of the times they has given that yell, dear to the heart of every student, and wanted to go to Washburn. The girls thought of the times they had heard it and wanted to go too. And we went. First we went for the tickets which were on sale at the University. By noon the fellows who had stood good for the expense of the excursion began to feel safe. A mass meeting was held in the chapel. It was resolved amidst hilarious shouts that "We do proceed to go to Topeka." Prof. W. S. Franklin was chosen as the leader of the expedition, with more cheering. A committee was appointed to secure badges in University colors bearing the words "Naylor—Our Orator." And it was done. We left for Topeka at 6 o'clock, four coach loads of us, more than two hundred and sixty strong. We were met there by Marshall's band and a few Washburn students. We formed in line two abreast with
Chancellor Snow and Dr. McVican leading the procession in a carriage "Capt. Franklin" was unable or foot to properly intend a line a quarter of a mile long and the first thing we knew he came dash ing down the line on a "powerful bay horse" with all the dignity o an old cavalry officer. The Wash burn students adorned with blue badges, Washburn colors, took the other side of the street and by din of forming a line composed chiefly of space, showed off the small num ber that they had to good advantage. If the people of Topeka never saw a demonstration of college spirit and college pride, before, they saw i there. If you wasn't there just imagine two hundred and fifty University students away from home in line, preceded by Marshall's band led by Capt. Franklin, and filling the air with "Naylor," "Snow," "Kansas," "Rock-chalk-jay-hawl K. U-u-u" and most anything else that would give expression to enthusiasm and you have a faint idea o what the people of Topeka saw and heard. If you are a loyal son of the University you do one thing more You wish you had been there. After marching down the Avenue nearly to the Capitol the procession turned west to Jackson and filed down to the State House square where a salute of three guns was fired. From here the crowd was taken by ten or fifteen cars packed full, over the Rapid Transit railway to Washburn. There we met our girls again. Immediately on arriving in Topeka they had been taken to the college and while the boys were marching about the street they had been making the acquaintance of the young ladies at Washburn.
Dr. McVicar gave an address of welcome. He welcomed us as students and as those who were engaged in a common work with him and with the students of Washburn. He had special pleasure in welcoming the students of the State University lead by Chancellor Snow whom he had helped to call to the faculty of that institution twenty-five years ago. This was one act of his life of which he was proud and which had he believed been of
After trying all the rooms in the college and finding that it was practically impossible to put two or three persons in the same space at the same time it was decided that the speech making should take place from the college steps. Accordingly those who were not down in the basement eating ice cream which the Washburn people kindly provided for all, or out on the campus building a bonfire, assembled in front of the college and the speeches were begun.
great benefit to the State.
great benefit to the State.
After Dr. McVicar, Naylor the hero of the occasion was called for.
He came forward but evidently thought it would be a good plan to quit while his credit was good and simply acknowledged the honors shown him.
Chancellor Snow was then introduced and responded in words at once sensible, pleasing, and appropriate. Speaking of the demonstrations of the evening he said: "If Demosthenes definition of eloquence is correct—action—action—action—the students of the University have demonstrated by what they have done to-night, and by what they will do before they go home that they are truly eloquent. Kansas is celebrated in many ways, corn and wheat and cattle are making it famous, but they are making possible other and greater victories. This victory is of the mind of the voice, of youthful eloquence and it will do much to convince our eastern institutions of learning that we can compete with them on any field where competition is allowed. As soon as Prof. Snow had finished his speech Bear was cailed for and was finally found among the crowd and brought forward. He made the speech of the evening, but he is not to blame, he could not help it. He was born an orator. When he finished, we wondered as we had wondered a thousand times before, why on earth he did not beat Naylor last February. His speech was in substance as follows: "I don't know why I have been called upon here. I am no orator. I have not even pretended to be since the 15th day of last February." We did not come here to talk. We are going to let you do most of this talking, because you have proven to us on several occasions that you have the talkers. But we did come here to shake hands and rejoice with you over this common—yet very uncommon victory. Again we came up here to see a curiosity; positively the only living one in a America—the first Kansan to win an Inter-State Oratorial contest. We came up here to show you that even if you can beat us in oratorical contests, you can't beat us in enthusiasm, in rejoicing in shouts and cheers, in sounds of revelry, over the glorious news that came speeding over the wires from Lincoln on last Friday night. And finally we came up here to tell you that we are glad you defeated us last February, for
No. 32.
This is a day we long have sought,
And mourned because we found it.
He then gave a witty description of the orators from Kansas who have failed in Inter State contests. In closing he said:
Chaplain McCabe and Art.
"Indeed this was a great victory, a Kansas president announcing that Kansas had taken first place and Illinois with a Kansas man had captured second. My friends Kansas never does any thing by halves. Our Senior Senator was right when he said: The only color in the Kansas paint pot is red. "So pardon us to-night if we should use a little of this paint."
Brewster, who represented Kansas in the Inter-State contest last year, then made short pithy speeches.
When the speech making was over a lively contest took place between the band and the boys. The band started to play one thing and the boys started to sing another. The result was that the boys sang. At ten o'clock we all went up town again and soon had a big bonfire blazing. The police, with much more good nature and good sense than is usually manifested by the Lawrence police, gathered around and enjoyed the fun with the rest. But the fire burned out, everybody was tired, and three-quarters of an hour before it was time to start home the greater portion of the crowd had given up the idea of celebrating more and gone down to the train ready to come home and go to bed, and sleep till the people who didn't go had eaten up all the breakfast.

K. S. U. vs. WILLIAM JEWELL.
The University nine will meet the William Jewell nine next Saturday week the 17th at Chelsea Park, Kansas City. A special train will be run via, the Santa Fe to enable all students to see the game and also spend a day in Kansas City or in Chelsea Park as they may desire. Round trip tickets will be sold for one fare $1.20. Tickets may be obtained next week from Manager Armstrong, or any of the members of the Athletic board. Chelsea Park is abeautiful park near Kansas City on the elevated railroad and is a splendid place to spend a delightful day. The Young People's Christian Endeavor Societies of Lawrence will also hold a picnic at Chelsea on that day. Some of our tennis players are arranging a game of tennis with the Kansas City players to be played in the morning. This will add interest to the day. The students of William Jewell will send a car load of enthusiasti to back up their players.
K. S. U. vs. ELDORADO.
R. S. U. vs. ELDORADO.
Prof. A. G. Canfield and R. R. Whitman left for El Dorado this noon where they play a series of tennis games to-morrow. Topeka and Wichita have also promised to have teams at El Dorado. The games will no doubt be hotly contested and the University boys may feel proud if they come out on top.
Our ball nine played its first game with the Indians at Haskell last Saturday afternoon and was a victim to the Indian pitcher's wily curves. That is what is said but the fact is
that but eight safe hits were made off of Smith the K. S. U. pitcher while fifteen were made of the Indian. It is reported that the Indians have a first nine which recently beat the nine of Saturday's game by a score of 13 to 2. The following is the score of the game by innings.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Total
K. S. U. 0 0 1 2 0 4 0 0 0 7
Haskell 2 0 1 1 0 11 11 0— 8
The Indians will be played again soon.
NOTES.
The ball nine will come out in their new suits Friday afternoon.
their new suits Friday afternoon.
Manager Armstrong has procured a mascotte for the ball nine.
Field Day promises to be a great success. We have heard of a large number of students who intend entend entering for some of the events.
The Seniors have at last gotteu out their challenge to the Faculty for the annual base ball game.
Dignified Seniors and many professors can be seen playing one old cat almost any time in the day.
A number of the students have received samples of Wright & Ditson's fine tennis flannels. Some of these flannels are very beautiful and we should like to see more of our players have full tennis suits. The game can be played better, with more comfort and be more attractive when played by players in full tennis outfit than by a lot of fellows in white shirts, high collars and Derby hats.
The following numbers of the KANSAN are missed from the Library file. No. 14, Dec 13th; No. 19, Jan. 31st and No. 20, Feb. 7th. Any one having these numbers can do a great favor to the Librarian by donating them to the Library.

Published every Friday morning by THE
COURIER COMPANY.
The Board of Regents transacted some important business during their last session. V. L. Kellogg of '89 is appointed assistant in entomology.
A contract has been let for repairing the foundation to the central portion of the main building. Two years ago the south wing was fixed and now the center is found to need the same attention. It is strange indeed that such a large building should have been erected on a hill top without extending the foundations down to the solid rock. Yet that was the case.
The Regents also established two new courses, one to be known as the Latin-English course, and the other as the General Language course, in which any two languages desired may be selected by the student. These two courses will lead to the degree of A. B. The object is to establish a better connection between the University and the High Schools.
WELL the year is about over for us. How thankful we shall be. How thankful the profs will be, as they serenely pack their trunks, pocket their salary and depart for the effete East to spend their summer vacation. The students will be everywhere. Some of them will canvass the wretched inhabitants of their native burgs as book agents; some of them will "take responsible positions" some will till the soil; some will drive delivery wagons,—and more will stay at home. No one will be more thankful for the coming of vacation than those unfortunate individuals who have to get out the college papers, who go to bed dreaming of "copy," "ads" and similar technicalities. For the remaining brief weeks of the University year we have one recommendation to make to every student, and that is, look out for your health. Don't stay indoors too much. When you feel "mean" or "run down," don't dose yourself up
with a lot of spring tonics, but get out doors and do something. Take some part in athletics. Tennis, base ball, rowing, cycling and dozens of other outdoor exercises are open to you. There is nothing a student needs so much when the warm spring weather comes around, after six months of confinement within heated rooms, as good vigorous exercise taken every day. It is worth more than all the "blood medicine" in the world.
The Inter-State contest is over, and Kansas is the winner. This is a victory of which we should be proud indeed. Whatever we may have said or thought of Mr. Naylor's oration, it certainly has been good enough to win him the first place. We are glad of it. We congratulate Washburn, and we congratulate Kansas. The victory is no less our victory than it is Washburn's and we rejoice with all other loyal Kansas students that a Kansas man has at last won the first place in the Inter-State Oratorical Contest. Kansas seems to be on top this year. We understand that the man who won second place is also a Kansan, so it seems we have monopolized things. How much we would all have liked to seen Harvey Bear where Naylor stands; how much we would have liked to rend ourselves with enthusiasm over a man from K. S. U., as the champion. Yet now, after the contest is all over, fairly tried and fairly won, we think we show the heartiest enthusiasm for Mr. Naylor's victory when we say that we feel as good over it as though he had gone forth to Lincoln from the walls of the old State University. Congratulations, again Naylor—shake hands
The trip that two hundred and sixty or more of our students made to Topeka last Monday to help Washburn celebrate Naylor's victory,—or rather Kansas, victory, will we hope be productive of good results. We hope it will tend to a greater community of interest between the two institutions. We hope the students of Washburn and K. S. U, will become better acquainted with each other, and that some time we may have the pleasure of receiving a similar delegation when the fortunate day comes that a K. S. U, man wins an inter-state contest. Washburn may justly glory in being the first college in the state to win first place for Kansas in the inter-state contest, and we congratulate her with all our hearts. We hope the splendid out pouring of K. S. U. enthusiasm demonstrated as nearly three hundred of us trod the damp streets of Topeka last Monday night in long columns of yelling, singing, whistling and horn blowing students, may tend to bring Washburn to understand that we are in hearty sympathy with them and their orator. We have shown them what we can do to and they have shown us they are good hosts and excellent and hospitable entertainers. In the name of our students, the KANSAN
extends its hearty thanks to the Washburn students for the very pleasant reception extended us, and we hope the time will come when we can return the compliment.
NEXT Tuesday morning at half-past 12 o'clock is the date announced on the bulletin board by the Chancellor, for a mass meeting of the students to be held in the chapel. The faculty have by a vote decided to place the conduction of chapel exercises in the hands of three professors and two students, the latter to be chosen by the student body in mass meeting. The object of this meeting to be held next Tuesday there will be the election of two students to fill these positions. We do not know how many deep laid "schemes" are being concocted for the capture of these responsible positions, but one thing we do see, and that is this. The faculty wish to arouse a greater interest in the chapel exercises and to induce a greater number of the students to attend. It has seemed incompatible with the breadth and liberality of a genuine University, and a State University at that, to compel students to attend religious exercises. Such a method is not followed in any of the great Universities. Men come to college now at a mucn more advanced age than formerly. Their characters and religious views, if they have any, are usually tolerably well settled, and the formality of attending chapel exercises has no particular effect upon them. In fact, in most colleges where such exercises are compulsory, they are endured as a bore which has to put up with. They bring no restraining moral influence to bear. In a denominational college this is possible to a slight degree, but not in State institution. However there is a side to regular chapel attendance on the part of all the students which is beneficial, and that is the regular association or assembly in a single body, of the whole mass of the students. We believe that to be a good thing, and an excellent thing. Now at the University, but few of the students attend chapel regularly, and consequently it is rare that the whole body of students is found assembled together. Once in a while we have a mass meeting in the chapel or something of that kind, which brings us all together. Otherwise we are all scattered at our special or individual work. But comparatively few of the faces we see become really familiar to us. We see each other passing to and from classes, and in the halls, but that acquaintance which comes from seeing every other student in a certain place every day at a certain time,—this we do not get. All announcements which are usually made to the students assembled in chapel, are conveyed by means of the bulletin boards. So that nothing remains of chapel exercises but a brief religious service which an average of about thirty or forty out of nearly six hundred students attend daily. We wish for the sake
of the good which comes out of the general assembly of the students that something could be done to make chapel attendance regular and large.
Athletic Girls.
When we meet boys and girls, especially girls, outside a gymnasium, we wonder if that sort of training is doing them any good. Certainly there are no visible evidences; they walk along as meekly as lambs, and I have yet to see a girl or woman jump on or off a street car or spring over a muddy crossing, though so many girls can do more than that in a public hall before thousands of spectators. In seeing those young women exercising with Indian clubs, I wondered why any one should be ungraceful if such a drill as that were possible, why girls do not carry themselves better than they do, and if I had ever met these limber and graceful creatures in the street. The young women who jumped over horizontal bars and swung themselves like acrobats, head downward, showed that proper training might develop any woman into a model of athletic grace.
It has been a scorn and reproach for women that they could not climb a stone wall nor run upsteirs without losing their breath, but all things are possible under this training; and, in spite of petticoats, no gymnasium pupil can now hesitate to go down a fire escape nor to cross a field occupied by cows of a too-inquiring disposition. This good, if no other, grows out of physical development, and though the children of today still look as thin and pale as ever, the children of-to-morrow are bound to show great improvement in bone and muscle, thanks to this new culture. There are other ways of improving the human race, but until the world dares undertake them send the weaklings to gymnasiums and let them learn how to use their arms and legs.—Boston Herald.
Saved from a Snake by Her Dog.
While gathering dandelions in the woods near her home a few days ago little Mary Buckman, the 15-year-old daughter of Hiram Buckman, a well to do farmer in the upper part of Northampton county, was chased by a huge snake, and was only saved from its fangs by the timely interference of the family dog. The little girl had gathered a handful of flowers when a huge woodshite snake darted out from the trunk of a fallen tree.
The child ran toward the farmhouse with the writting serpent in hot pursuit. Just before reaching home the snake was at her heels, and her mind was almost gone. The big family bull dog jumped the yard fence, and started to the rescue. The snake fastened its fangs in one of the dog's bind legs and coiled itself around his body. The dog succeeded in getting hold of the snake's throat, and then the conflict for life was soon over. Since the occurrence the girl has been troubled with nervous prostration.
The snake when measured was over eight feet long, and its body was larger than a man's fist.—Philadelphia Record.
They Have Been Using Old Telephones. A somewhat singular situation has been developed in Philadelphia. During the past few months the American Bell Telephone company has had detectives at work in that city for the purpose of discovering "bogus" or outlawed telephones. Over 200 have been discovered, and many of the users thereof, including liverymen, doctors, dentists, druggists and fuel dealers, have been summoned to appear in the United States circuit court. These bogus telephones are in all probability the remains of the plant of some former competitors of the Bell Telephone company, and some two years ago the company brought exactly the same kind of suit as that now in progress against a number of business men, some of whom are now on the list of delinquents. They were all released upon the promise that they would not use the infringing instruments. It is hardly likely that they will be treated as leniently this time.—NewYork Sun.

Why is it that the poets always sing
Of pleasant springtide? Sooth! I cannot tell.
Unless it be that no time else so well
Incarnates poesy. When every dell
Is full of yellow buttercups; when ring
The merry winds along a blithe hillside
That slopes into the blue with all its pride
Of snow-white daisies blowing far and wide,
Under the warm sun; when these marvels bring
The joy of earth, then we do know that here
Is the most potent season of the year,
With its flute-music priestlike in the clear
And sweet-toned chant of triumph wherewith Spring
Heralds the march of Time, year after year.

EXCHANGE NOTES.
We desire to acknowledge the receipt of the Kansas Newspaper Union, published at Topeka.
The Wesleyan *Hatchet*, of Nebraska Wesleyan University, has changed its name to *The Ecritean*.
College Echoes prints on its first page a picture of the new main building which Lane is to have. It certainly has a fine appearance and seems to show the growth of the institution.
Of all hybrid words in English perhaps 'electrocution' is the worst in its utter want of meaning. Cablegram' is bad, 'motorneer' worse, but the climax is reached in this new word.—College Life.
How about "typewritist?"
The Academy Student in its last issue has an editorial on "Shall We Hang Our Murderers?" Great Caesar. It would be rather difficult for us to do it, wouldn't it, after we are dead? We should like to, certainly.
The Index has a fine article it its last issue on "The Preacher's debt to Alfred Tennyson," by Prof. W. A. Quayle, of Baker. We see by the Index also, that the courses at Baker University have been changed somewhat, and raised in standard. Wonder if K. S. U. is proving a model to some other Kansas college.
Several educational institutions of recognized standing have adopted the plan of doing away with the term examinations in some departments, and also of substituting for the time honored commencement orations an address to the graduating class by some person of note. The plan is generally conceded to be a good one and, as our own institution is expected to stand in the front rank from the first, it would seem proper that its faculty adopt advanced views in the infancy of the University. Why not make a trial with the first crop of grauates next June.—Ecoritean.
So say we all of us.
Of all the bores with which this unhappy world is crowded the worst is the individual who, on all occasions, 'would like to offer a few remarks,' these 'remarks' generally being a string of platitudes fall of the best and most stupidly-put advice. — College Life.
A good many of the boys have told us that society suppers are getting too numerous, and therefore too expensive. They say that the girls, after agreeing with them to meet one-half the expenses of the halls, prepare suppers and make every fellow pay for his own and his girl's supper. The boys think they had better, at once foot the whole bill of expenses and relieve the girls of the task of serving up oysters and cake.—College Echoes. Lucky these boys don't come to K. S. U. There is a sentiment
Lucky these boys don't come to K. S. U. There is a sentiment in this which if primitive, is at least original.
The social advantages to be enjoyed during college life, which may be found within the shadow of the institution itself, are of no small importance to the prospective student. Here are found rare opportunities for social improvements, the development, of conversational powers, and the intellectual faculties. College life is a continual round of social events of more or less importance. Apart from everything else it is a rare privilege to be intimately associated with cultured christian men, such as may be found filling the different chairs of a first-class institution. Moreover, among the many students to be met, one can select friends whose tastes and thoughts are in sympathy with his own. Some of the warmest and most enduring friendships of life are formed within the college walls. Advance.

With the excellent advantages for rowing every student in the University should take a boatride once a week.
Abe Levy has a new line of silk four-in-hands and windsor's at 25c.
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 boats for rowing.

tift to Wabash College.
Mr. Simon Yandes' additional gift of $50,000 to Wabash college makes the aggregate amount of his gifts to that institution $100,000. Excepting the De Paunebesquest to the university of that name,this is the largest gift for educational purposes made by any citizen of Indiana. It shows the state is progressing on that line as on others, and its generous proportions will place Mr. Yandes' name high up in the list of Indiana's public benefactors.—Indianapolis Journal.
Boy Preachers Outdone.
Maj. Perry, the illiterate and ignorant Edgefield county, S. C., negro, who, while in what appears to be a trance sleep, preaches learned and eloquent semons, is still attracting a great deal of attention, and several enterprising citizens of Edgefield county now have the human phenomenon in charge and are exhibiting him to large audiences. The modus operandi is as follows:
Perry goes to bed and lies outstretched in full view of the audience, and by the time the spectators have assembled is fast asleep. After a few moments of apparently sound slumber his muscles begin to twitch, he limbs to contract, and his body becomes contorted in unseemly shapes. This spasms soon passes off, and then he begins to preach. He takes his text from the Bible, naming book, chapter and verse, all the time lying flat on his back, with his eyes shut, and for half an hour or more preaches, using strictly grammatical and even eloquent language. At the conclusion of his sermon he sings a hymn to an old air, but the words of it entirely new and of his own composition. Then comes a prayer, and he dismisses the congregation. —St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
There is at least one state in which pool selling is not a violation of the law against gambling, and that is Maryland a pool sellers' paradise.
A prominent Mississippiian said of the negro question half a dozen years ago: "This race question will never be settled until the negroes go off somewhere and show what they are capable of doing for themselves."
Our readers will be delighted to learn that Professor Dujardin-Beaumetz rates antipyrin as first of the antiharmic analgesics, while methylacetanilid is second, phenacetin third, and poor old acetanilid no good on account of the alarming cyanosis it produces. Beware of acetanilid.
It is not easy to see how, at first thought, the strike of the Liverpool dockmen could raise the price of glass in America, yet it has done so, at the rate of 10 per cent. It happens in this way: The soda ash used in the manufacture of glass is half of it imported from Liverpool. The strike of the dockmen has prevented its shipment. It is a good illustration of the interdependence of nations in this age. But why cannot we produce our own soda ash?
This coming September France will celebrate with pomp and ceremony the twentieth anniversary of the foundation of the republic. It is thus that the shrewd French leaders amuse the common people of France, who need amusement to keep them from dangerous meddling. The people will celebrate the third republic. Twenty years is longer than any other government has lasted in France for a century, and perhaps this time the republic will stand. Americans all hope so.

LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MAY 16, 1890.
Prof. A.G.Canfield led chapel exercises this week.
Miss Ella Gibson has left school. The preps all took in the dog show Monday night.
The Freshman Greek class has finished its advance work.
Tom. Franklin is wearing the colors of Phi Delta Theta.
W. S. Hanna, a Phi Psi from De Pauw, spent Sunday in the city. The excursion of the base-ballists to Chelsea Park had to be given up. Chas. Johnson, of Atchison, visited friends at the University Wednesday.
Miss Mamie Monroe has been visiting for some time in the southern part of the state.
Vice-Chancellor Spangler has recently been reappointed city attorney of Lawrence.
A number of students are going to Chelsea Park to-morrow on the Y, P. S. C. E. excursion.
Miss Ruth Emery left Wednesday for her home, at St. Joseph, Mo. She does not expect to return to the University.
The class in surveying have finished their work in the book and will devote the rest of their time to field work.
Gate Nichols, of Baker, was on the hill Monday. Come a few times more as a visitor. Nichols, and we shall expect to see you next year as a student.
Miss Nellie Franklin has returned to Lawrence and expects to teach music here this summer. Her many friends in the University are glad to see her back.
The Regents will be asked at their next meeting to make a small appropriation to assist in employing a general secretary for the University Y.M.C.A.
V. L. Kellogg was elected by the Regents last week assistant Professor of Entomology. He will begin his work next fall. Mr. Kellogg is a careful worker and will be a popular instructor.
The honorary scientific Society, Sigma Xi, which was organized in the University some time ago, elected the following members Monday: D. E. Esterley, C. S. McFarland and E. E. Slosson.
The meeting held in the chapel Tuesday morning to elect two students to act with the faculty as a chapel committee was quite largely attended. The persons chosen for next year were Miss Virginia Spencer and C. P. Chapman. It is believed that through the influence of this committee attendance at chapel may be increased.
Another party has been formed this year to spend the summer in Estes Park. Those so far reported as sure to go are Peairs, Hadley, Moore, Peabody and Robinson.
The report comes from Washington that Prof. Sayre who is attending the National Pharmaceutical convention at that place has been appointed by the convention to assist in revising the Pharmacopoeia. The convention has adopted the metric system of weights and measures, and that system will hereafter be used by the pharmacists of the country.
Prof. George B. Penny who at present has charge of the music department of the State Normal school has been chosen Dean of the music department of the University. Prof. Penny has studied in several of the best schools in both America and Europe and has met with great success as a teacher. The music department of the Normal school owes what it is to his efforts. He will spend this summer in study in Germany and will return to the University in time to arrange for next year's work. The University is fortunate in securing as the head of the music department so able a man and one with so enviable a reputation throughout the State. What has been accomplished here by Prof. McDonald will be maintained and the reputation of our music department will continue to extend.
KAPPA KAPPA GAMMA.
Last Saturday afternoon the young ladies of Kappa Kappa Gamma entertained a number of their friends at the pleasant home of Miss Allie Mason on Ohio street. The program of the afternoon consisted of Kappa songs, and a lecture by Prof. Blake. Prof. Blake spoke of the Passion Play which is performed once in ten years years by the peasants of Bavaria and which he saw in 1880. He gave an analysis of the play and a description of the persons who took the different parts. His talk like all his talks was instructive and interesting and was much enjoyed by the Kappas and their guests. After the lecture refreshments were served and a general good time indulged in. The entertainment was as pleasant as it was novel.

Last Saturday afternoon Mrs J. G. Haskell entertained the Kappa Alpha Thetas at her delightful home east of the city. Several of the older members were present which added largely to the pleasure of the occasion. At about half past 4 o'clock a tempting lunch was served and the gnests soon departed feeling very grateful to Mrs. Haskell for her many kindnesses to the Thetas. Those present were Mesdames MacDonald, Beatty, Rankin, Munsell, Anderson, Howe, Lewis and Misses Bartell, Grabe, Mabel Haskell, Walker, Towne, Munsel of Council Grove; Reassoner, Mushrush, Lou Simpson of Kansas City, May and Edith Haskell, Clarke, Russell, Barrett, Blaker, Mary and Helen Simpson, Stevens and Emery.

CHIEF JUSTICE HORTON'S ADDRESS.
Chief Justice Horton lectured before the Kent Club last Tuesday night. His subject was "The jury system—its origin, development and the needed reforms." He said that just where the jury system originated is not certain. The present system however was first adopted in England. The number of a common jury has so far as we know has always been twelve. How this number came to be fixed upon is not known. Perhaps on account of some ancient superstition. There were twelve prophets, twelve tribes of Israel, twelve judges, twelve apostles and numerous other powers composed of twelve members. In early times the jurors were with nesses in the case they tried. If they failed to agree the number was increased until twelve did agree to some verdict, and this verdict was taken. He advocated three reforms in the present jury system of this country. There should be no exemption from service except sickness or physical disability. The best men in the community should be compelled to serve. Impression received from newspaper accounts should not disqualify a man as a juror. This custom throws out the most intelligent men and fills our jury boxes with the ignorant and worthless. In the third place a unanimous verdict should not be required. It is expensive, unjust and contrary to American principles. In this country majorities should rule. This unanimity is required only in England and the United States. Three of the States have already decided that in civil cases a majority may render a verdict.

The K. S. U. ball nine has played its first games and has been badly beaten. We might publish the official score with its long list of errors but the whole result may be summed up when we say, 'lack of practice.' It is true that the result of the games might have been different if Emporia had not run in its pitcher and two other players from the city of Emporia, but the games would certainly have been no better, and even with the outside players Emporia could have been easily beaten had our nine played but a fair game. We believe that the nine can beat Emporia and that it will win at least one game when it plays Emporia May 30th and 31st. Pitcher Smith has now arranged his time so that he can practice with the nine two hours each afternoon and the boys have done some hard work in the last few days. The material is here from which a good nine can be secured and we feel certain that the farces of last Friday and Saturday will not be repeated. The follow ing is the score by innings:

FACULTY VS. SENIORS.
The annual game between these two august bodies will be played on the ball grounds Friday after noon, May 23d. This will be without doubt the most exciting game of the season as the players are all but professionals. Comfortable seats will be erected on the grounds so that the ladies may attend. This is the big attraction of the season. Below are the names of the players and their positions:

No. 33.
To-morrow afternoon the ball nine will play with William Jewell College at Chelsea Park, Kansas City. The nine has been strengthened this week besides having practiced every afternoon, and there is every reason to believe that the boys will put up a good game of ball. They are certainly working hard to strengthen the team and should receive the support and encouragement of the whole student body. Let a large number of students accompany the nine to
Kansas City and back it up by some genuine K. S. U. enthusiasm. We know that the game will be worth seeing. Below are the names of players and their positions:

TENNIS AT EL DORADO.
DOUBLES.
The first set resulted in a score of 10-8 in favor of K. S. U. This set was won by K. S. U. after repeatedly having 'vantage out called on the 'vantage out game of the set. The second set stood 7 to 5 in favor of K. S. U., as did the third set. These sets were all stubbornly contested, but the winning games of the deuce sets seemed always to fall to K. S. U. The record of three straight in deuce games is remarkable.
SINGLES.
The singles were played by Bronson for El Dorado and Whitman for K. S. U. The first set was won by K. S. U., by the score of 6-4 after some sharp playing. The second set was won by Bronson 7-5. Bronson won the first four games of the set and Whitman was unable to overtake the lead although the score was raised to five all.
Third set was won by Whitman, 6-0. Fourth set by Whitman, 6-2.
The matches were all best three out of five and the complete score is:
Doubles—K. S. U. won; 10-8 7-5; 7-5.
Singles—K. S. U. won; 6-4; 5-7; 6-0; 6-2.
After the late base ball disasters it is particularly encouraging to see our tennis players keep up their former record.

A NEW Inter-Collegiate Scientific Society has recently been established at the State University. Most of our students know of its establishment, and would like to hear some particulars in regard to it. In 1886, there was established by the Scientific Faculty of Cornell University the Sigma Xi Society, a body of scientific men "to reward work, to encourage work and to accomplish scientific work itself." Soon chapters were established in Stevens' Institute of Technology. Rutger's College, New Jersey; Troy Polytechnic; and Union College, Schenectady. Prominent scientists interested themselves and under-graduates were admitted to membership during Senior and Junior years of scientific work.
In extension of this society, the Scientificist men of the faculty of the State University have succeeded in obtaining permission from the faculty to establish a chapter of Sigma Xi here and a charter will soon be issued. The society is in no wise secret, but aims to do for scientific students what the venerable Phi Beta Kappa haa done and is doing for literary students. The constitution says "The objects of this association shall be to grant its privileges of membership to distinguished students in science and engineering, to undergraduates as a reward for eminent scientific attainments, and to those without college halls, as a confirmation of success already achieved in science. To meet for the discussion of scientific subjects. To supplement the regular course of instruction in science by original investigation. To conduct meetings or exercises open to the public, where shall be treated some of the great problems before science and the country. To undertake the publication of such scientific matter as deemed desirable and to influence a fraternal feeling between these brother workers in science."
The chacter members are the heads of the Scientific Departments: Chancellor Snow, Profs. Bailey, Marvin, Miller, Dyche and Blake. Graduate members must have presented at least one scientific article in a reputable scientific publication.
At a recent meeting the assistants in the Scientific Departments. Messrs. W. C. Stevens, W. S. Franklin, E. C. Murphy and E. C. Franklin were selected to membership. The honor was conferred upon three of the present graduating class, D. E. Esterly, C. S McFarland, and E. E. Slosson.
We are told that the base ball nine is to undergo some revision. We hope it will be revised, or have something done for it that will insure a game or two for the University. The main thing the nine lacks is regular practice. We have a good battery, and several good basemen. Where the nine seems to lack most in is the fielders and batters. It was noticed last Friday and Saturday that the Emporia men, while possessing no startling or phenomenon, players, was composed of first class all-aound players;—men who never let a fly go past them in the field, whose short stop always stopped the balls short, and whose batting was excellent. In fact they had several men whom they could put in the places of their regular battery without serious detriment. It was noticed that they all played together well and that the men always had themselves placed somehow or other, so that the balls batted by our boys, came right into their hands. Among our players last Saturday, perhaps Hi Adams, who pitched during the latter part of the game gained as much credit, and elicited as much surprise as any. His pitching was certainly the best that had been done by the K. S. U. nine during that day. Arrangements have now been made, we understand, by which Mr. Smith our pitcher, will be paid to practice regularly and thus be relieved from his work down town. This will strengthen the nine considerably. Now if our boys will practice frequently there is no reason why the somewhat heterogeneous elements of which the nine is composed, may not be formed into a first-class working nine.
We received a short time ago the April number of the eighth series of the John Hopkius University Studies. This number consists of a monograph by Professor Blackmar on "Spanish Colonization in the Southwest." The field which it takes up is entirely new to most of us, and the manner in which it is treated in the paper before us makes it very interesting and instructive reading. It begins by taking up the Spanish policy in colonization, and compares it with the Roman colonization system; the first Spanish commercial monopolies and the first attempts at settlement are there discussed. These settlements were
situated within the boundary of the present United States, in what is now California and New Mexico. The mission system of settlement is taken up and treated at some length, this being one of the most important phases of Spanish settlement. The missions; their rise and downfall, are treated, and the relations of the Spaniards with the Indians.
After this the Civic Colonies are taken up and the methods of founding the Spanish secular colonies is set forth, together with the administration, character and final failure of the civil colonies. The Presidial Pueblos, or military settlements is the last topic discussed in the monograph. We may remark here that this paper forms an abridgment of a thesis on the same subject which Professor Blackmar prepared for the degree of Ph D. at Johns Hopkins. It is quite an honor now to be a writer of monographs for the Johns Hopkins series, and the publication of any papers in that series is sufficient warrant of their worth and value, and establishes the reputation of a contributor as a worker in special lines. Prof. Blackmar is a hard worker. He came here this year to a new position with five new courses of lectures to prepare, and has consequently been kept extremely busy all winter, and in addition he has contributed several papers to the seminary, and has had other outside work to do. A short time ago we noticed the valuable work from his hands on Federal and States Aid to Education in the United States. His last production, on the Spanish Colonies in the Southwest takes up a subject which has been treated but little, and therefore offers a fresh and interesting fund of information. The style in which the monogram is written is attractive and it will repay every student of American history to read it.
We have received a copy of "The First Alumni Catalogue of the Academic Departments of the University of Kansas." The work has been completed by Prof. M. W Sterling, 83; President of the Alumni Association. It contains a preface, giving an account of the growth of the Alumni Association, and the Constitution and By-Laws of the Association, with its officers since its organization in 1883. Then comes the roll of the alumni. The address, present occupation, and in many instances brief sketches of the life and work of each. This information is most valuable and will be of great interest to the alumni. This is the first time any attempt has been made to present a catalogue of the alumni in which a sketch of the life and work of each has been given.
We hope the work which Prof. Sterling has so faithfully performed for the Academic Departments may be done also for the Pharmacy and Law schools, so as to make a complete record of all the alumni of
the University. This work should be kept up from year to year with such revisions and changes as may be required. In this way the alumni will be connected with their Alma Mater, and with each other. The summary at the close of the catalogue contains some interesting data. We find that the whole number of graduates is 233, of whom 146 are men, and 87 are women. The percentage of men being $ 62\frac{1}{2} $ and of women $ 37\frac{1}{2} $ Of these 64 of the men and 42 of the women are married, the percentage of married alumni being 43 6-7 for the men, and $ 48\frac{1}{4} $ for the women. Of degrees we have, Bachelors of Arts, 129; Bachelors of Science, 59; Masters of Arts, 24; Masters of Science, 13; Bachelors of Didactics, 19; Bachelors of Civil Engineering, 8; Doctors of Science, 1; Doctors of Philosophy, 1; of these the number counted twice is 21. Their residences are distributed as follows: Kansas, 142; Missouri, 15; Colorado, 8; Washington, 6; District of Columbia, 9; Texas, 5; Illinois, 5; Pennsylvania, 4; Indian Territory, 4; Iowa, 4; California, Indiana, New York, Montana, and Nebraska, 3 each; New Mexico, Utah, Massachusetts, and Ohio, 2 each; and Arizona, Michigan, Maryland, Mexico and China, one each. Six, only, are in the roll of the dead. As to occupations, our alumni are distributed as follows: Teachers, 55; engaged in domestic duties, 45; Lawyers, 32; Civil Engineers, 17; Journalists, 10; Ministers, 10; Students, 16; Physicians, 8; Merchants, 6; Farmers, 6; Druggists, 5; Bankers, 3; Miscellaneous, 26. Of these 12 are counted twice.
COMMENCEMENT
This certainly is an interesting roll. A large proportion of the graduates are in the higher professions, and the great preponderance of them reside still in the state of Kansas. Altogether, Prof. Sterling's catalogue is a fund of valuable and interesting information, and we hope it will be continued by the University from year to year, and be made to include all the alumni of the other departments.
We would like to improve the appearance of all our Kansas young ladies. Were such a thing possible by selling them their Graduating and Commencement Gowns. We have a lovely stock from which to supply your wants, and will do it at reasonable rates.

TRIED TO BREAK UP THE BAN QUET.
The Freshman's Toastmaster at Ann Arbor Abducted by Sophomores.
ANN ARBOR, MICH. May 9. To night was the date set for the annual banquet of the Freshmen class, and the last few days have been anxious ones for every patriotic Freshman. In days gone by the Freshman banquet was the time for the Sophomores to even up old scores with the Freshmen, and it was no unusual thing for the president, toastmaster, or some other high factotum of the Freshman class to be spirited away by the Sophs and held a captive until the banquet was over.
Of late years class spirits have deteriorated, and no such schemes have been carried out. It remained, therefore, for the present Sophomore class to make a bold attempt to break up the banquet which the Freshmen enjoyed to-night.
Frank J. Evans was selected by the Freshmen as toastmaster. He is a member of the Chi Psi fraternity, and, as he was sitting in his room yesterday afternoon working upon his toasts for the evening, he was summoned to the rear of the house. Arriving there, he was pounced upon by half a dozen Sophomores, who gagged and bound him and rushed him into a closed carriage. Five Sophomores jumped in and the team started, going in a southerly direction. They went to Salina and thence to Moorville, a quiet burg sixteen miles from this city. There they placed Evans in a bed and took his clothes away from him. The intention of the Sophomores was to keep Evans confined until Saturday morning, as it would break up the banquet if the toastmaster was missing.
and discovered the captive bound and gagged in bed, with the five abductors acting as guards.
The Sophomores made no resistance, and the victorious Freshman returned to the city about 5 o'clock this morning and retired to his room, where he remained all day, surrounded by a strong guard of Freshmen to prevent another attempt. He is now safe and sound, and presided at the most successful banquet which the class has ever given. The faculty have made no investigation of the case yet, but one is probable, and the Sophomores who were implicated are on the anxious seat.
The Freshmen were on the alert, and they discovered Evans' absence about 7 o'clock last night. A guard went to the stables about town and ascertained what teams were out. Parties of about ten each were made up and went to Ypsilanti, Dexter and Salina. The latter party was on the right track, and in consulting with the village marshal learned that the party had started for Moorville. A $5 bill enlisted the service of the marshal to the Freshmen and they started in pursuit. Arriving at the tavern there the Freshmen surrounded the house while the marshal entered
It can scarcely have failed to come to the mind of almost every student this year who has seen something of the past to call up comparisons between this year at the University, and former years. And there is one thing which comes most prominently before his mind, namely the phenomenally quiet condition of affairs among the students. There has been no "scrapping," and the disgraceful and puerile college paper fight which disgusted the faculty and the more reasonable students last year, has been wholly wanting. We have had our two rival weekly papers, but each, instead of devoting its valuable space to running down the reputation of the other, has striven as far as possible to work for the common good of the University and the students. And among the students how has it been? The lack of feuds and quarrels has made a more united and generous spirit prevalent, and the general interchange of good will and good feeling, with a general absence of clique jealousies has been remarkable for K. S. U. Students who were here last year will remember the per-petual turmoil which agitated the University,—that is the under graduate portion of the University—over the immortal old Oratorical Association. Now as we look back on that squabble we are all inclined to laugh, that such a petty thing should have stirred up so much up roar. This year, barring an occasional tiff, as one combination or another has been formed and operated, everything has been peaceful and serene,—and how much better everybody feels on account of it. There has been better work done in the University, and there has been an unusual manifestation of true college enthusiasm. We have organized and put in running order a splendid athletic association, which has put new life into all the athletic interests in the University;—we have seen the establishment of the two most important honovary fraternities in the United States; we have had the best year of society work, that has been for some time; we have seen the election of a Chancellor, with immense enthusiasm; we have seen the building of the Lawrence High School, which is to be a finely equipped fitting school for the Uni-

vorsity; we have seen the accession of several new professors to the faculty, and the enlargement and broadening of the courses; we have seen push, energy, interest and unbounded enthusiasm and faith in the students of the University. In fact, K. S. U. has "boomed" this year, and with her nearly 600 students, has seen one of the pleasantest, quietest and most sucessful years in the history of the institution, and last but not least, we should make a great mistake if we did not slip in the customary remarks that the present Senior class is the largest and smartest that has ever graduated from K. S. U. (Juniors, Sophomores and Freshmen, will please keep still and wait till their turn comes.)

Next year a series of meetings will be held at Harvard similar to the college conferences, informal, conversational, and open to all members of the University, devoted to an "introduction to the study of the Bible." The meetings are to be held once a week, and will be conducted by members of the Faculty and others.

If he succeeds in surviving this academic torture, his name will be recommended for the desired honor.

R. R. WHITMAN ... EDITOR
Following the custom established in a number of eastern Universities of repeating at Commencement the notable theatrical performances given during the year, the Athletic Board intends reproducing Sweetpea's Pleasure Trip at the Opera House, Tuesday evening June 10th. The large number who owing to the inclement weather were unable to see this play when given before, and the Commencement visitors also will be sufficient to fill the house to over flowing. The proceeds will be for the benefit of the Athletic interests of the University. Remember the date, Tuesday evening June 10th.
The annual faculty senior ball game will be played on the ball grounds this afternoon at 3 o'clock. This is one of the customs in vogue at K. S. U. which has not been established so far as is known at any other University. It is a distinctively University affair. It not only expresses the cordial relations of fellowship existing between the faculty and students of K. S. U. but also the interest and encouragement which the faculty accord to all rightly directed Athletic pursuits. May the custom never be discontinued. Below are the names which are to be immortalized this afternoon:

As was predicted our ball nine won its first game at Chelsea Park last Saturday. The day was just right for play and a considerable crowd including a number of old University students gathered to see the game. The William Jewell bail team is composed of a very gentile-manly set of fellows, and the report of the great kick which they made against Harvey being on our nine is unfounded, as not a word in reference to his playing was spoken to Manager Armstrong or to any official of our nine. The game was too one-sided to be very exciting, yet after the first two innings not a run was scored on either side and good plays were frequent. Smith pitched an effective game and fielded his position beautifully, being credited with striking out twelve men, and making eight assists. Davis caught Smith without an error, his only fault seemed to be a lack of judgment in throwing to second, which he will no doubt overcome as he becomes more familiar with his position. The support showed a great improvement over that of former games, but still lacks that sharpness of fielding necessary for a fine game. The practice of this last week should remedy this to a large extent. The official score is incomplete in many particulars and we will not publish it as an incorrect score, even if incorrect in only a few instances, serves no purpose whatever, and is rather a detriment than a help to the players. The

Schmelzer's second annual lawn tennis tournament will be held under the aupices of the Southwestern Tennis Association at "The Elms," Excelsior Springs, Mo., Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of next week. The officers of the Southwestern Association who are to have the management of the games are; President, J. H. Farrish, of St. Joseph; Vice President, D. P. Mann of Kansas City; Secretary and Treasurer, R. R. Whitman of Lawrence. A large number of entries have been made and the play will be exciting. Two teams will probably go from the University and some of the honors should fall to our lot. Our players have done some good practice work the last month.

We might whisper a suggestion in the ears of the professors this spring if we thought it would have any effect. The suggestion is,—do away with examinations as much as possible. Make class work and quizzes through this past term be the criterion of the knowledge of your students, and if they stand above 90 per cent. excuse them from the intellectual farce of examination.

Much speculation is rife concerning the outcome of the ball game which is to take place to-day between the Seniors and the Faculty. This is the big picnic of the year. It is as good as a circus to see it. Every student who fails to see this great game will miss the best thing of the college year. It will be funnier than a comedy and more interesting than a professional game. We have not figured out what the score will be, but somebody says it will average about 45 to 50, with a doubt existing as to which will win.
So our ball nine has at last won a game. The William Jewell college boys are the victims. Evidently the hard practicing which has been going on lately is beginning to have its effects. Next, we believe, come games with the McCooks of Leavenworth, and then the Emporia nine again. If our ball nine continues to improve, we have no doubt but that it can win in at least one of the Emporia games. As to the Levenworth nine, they are almost professionals, and the chances for winning are in their favor. We hope the boys will do thir best to bring up the K. S. U. base ball reputation to the place it occupied several yeas ago.
Now is the time to take a row.
We have recently read the winning oration in the Missouri State Contest, which took place shortly before the Inter-State. The subject is "Gladstone." It is one of the best orations we have seen, and gives a very good and appreciative estimate of the value of the great statesman's life and work. We often see criticisms directed against eulogies as contest orations. It is often claimed indeed that the eulogy is not a high class mental production, and that with a judicious use of fine and resounding phrases, an oration may be made in which little mental effort is expended, and which makes a very fine show. This is true to some extent, but it is possible to write a eulogy in which the best powers of oratory can be brought forth. Surely there is nothing so inspiring as to rouse a great audience to an enthusiastic appreciation of a statesman's genius. It is of far more value to do this than to appear as a youthful prodding upon the stage through the exposition of some deep and unfathomable abstract philosophical subject which sounds very grand and sublime, but which has no more substance or practicality than the air. Grace, dignity, and power are all necessary to a good oration, and is there any thing better to which these three can be applied than to a study of the life and work of a man whose influence on humanity has been as great as Gladstone's. Human nature, elevated and extolled with a study of its workings in the form of statesman or orator appeals most strongly to our sympathy. After all it is not of so much importance as we think it is that the world about us should be enlightened by the exposition of great fundamental truths. People prefer to hear these from other lips than those of the immature collegiate, and if the said collegiate would always stick close to the concrete, and the near instead of the abstract and the remote the result woul be more satisfactory.
We notice with some surprise that the Washburn Reporter exchanges with Samuel Johnson. At least a sentence credited to that gentleman appears in the exchange columns of last week's Reporter. —College Life.
Yes, and we also notice it exchanges with Alice Cary, Victor Hugo and President Eliot of Harvard. The Reporter seems to have a snap. We shall now endeavor look intellectual and endeavor to get some of these people to exchange with the KANSAN. We wonder if we ought to mark the copies we send "with the compliments of the author." We wish to conform to all the literary regulations. We shall, however, decline to exchange with any dead people. We do not wish to take an unfair advantage over them, Poor Victor Hugo. How he would roll over in his coffin to know that he had effected an entrance to the exchange column of a Kansas college paper.

Next year the legislature meets again, and friends of the University are beginning to count up the needs of K. S. U. for presentation to the august body. We were fortunate in what we obtained from the last legislature—much more so indeed than the other state institutions. We have now a regular fund of $75,000 a year collected by taxation. This is sufficient for the running expenses of the University. Many people doubtless object to paying this tax. Though this $75,000 looks large in a lump sum, as a matter of fact the portion of this sum which each tax payer has to bear is very light indeed, and he would not feel it if the amount were doubled. But aside from the regular running expenses, the University needs enlargement. We are outgrowing our surroundings. We need more room. The number of students is rapidly increasing, and the space we occupy is becoming more cramped every year. To begin with we need a library building. The library is being increased at the rate of about 2,000 volumes a year, and the rooms now occupied by it are becoming too small. Yes we should have a fine library building the first thing. Then we need a building for Physics and Engineering.
and in time a Pharmacy and Medical building. In course of time also we hope to see on Mt. Oread a hall of Law and Political Science. But these latter things are too far off to look forward to with mucn confidence. One thing is certain, every thing but the literary or collegiate courses should be removed from the main building. We have grown so that the regular courses use the whole building, and the departments of Physics, Law and Engineering, which now occupy rooms in the main building should have separate buildings of their own. When the time comes that these departments are moved out of the main building, it should be entirely refitted throughout. This summer the centre portion of the main hall will be repaired at the foundations as the south wing was two years ago. Without expecting all these above mentioned improvements to come at once we hope a start toward them will be made next year, in the form of a Library building. And we hope sincere that as soon as the University obtains a Library building, some one will be employed to go through the Library thoroughly and make up a complete card index, which is more than the present librarian is able to do with the present limitations on her time, and her numerous duties to perform. Now what can students do towards helping in this work. Just this. If any of you have friends or relatives who will enter the next legislature, you will do a good service for your University if you will go to these and interest them in it and its workings, so that when the time comes, if it does come, to apply to the legislature for a new building or anything of the kind, they will be more favorably disposed than they would otherwise have been. This is the kind of work the alumni are expected to do, and they do it gladly; let the students help as much as is in their power.

SPRING FEVER.
Economical Shirt to Buy.
W.M. BROMLINSICK, Sale Agent.
The western sun was sinking fast,
As slowly down the street there passed
A youth, whose face the impress wore
Of that dream he bore,—
Spring fever
his form, ere while erect and proud,
Was now with listless langur bowed,
And from his lips, in mournful strain,
There issued forth this sad refrain.—
"Spring fever
"O, stay!" an old man cried, "and state Why you are thus disconsoLate. And why your vlssage is so grave," He sadly smiled and gave—, "Sponge fever?"
"O, stop!" he heard a malden say,
"And join our party at croquet."
The gentle breeze that flowed by Bore to her chest sigh. sligh.
"Spring fever!"
"Beware the vain attempt to thrive on alcohol or 'two for five'!" This was the person's last farewell. A voice came from the bellworm— "Spring fever!"
Far down the street his home he went,
His thoughts on reaching home intent;
At last he crossed the threshold, where
He murmured in a chair, a
chair, a spring fever.
A stranger, through the open door,
Bheld him stretched upon the floor.
His damp locks o'er his forehead creep
And oft he mottled as he sleep—
“Spring fever.”

EXCHANGE NOTES.
Arbor Day cuts quite a figure in some of our northern States—more so than it does here. The Volante has quite a number of items on this subject.
The University Argus gives portraits and biographical sketches of its former presidents in its last issue. The Argus by the way is one of the best and most complete of western college papers.
We may safely say that Washburn next year will have the largest and most entusiastic local contest ever held in the State. Washburn's victories in the last two years have fired every student with oratorical ambition. There will be at least eight contestants, and the victor from this number will be strong enough to sweep the State with ease. Good friends at Baker and K S. U., we are coming again. —Washburn Reporter.
Good. Go ahead. We are ready for you any time.
"Don't!" Gentlemen, Don't come to classes so strongly perfumed by tobacco that the young ladies are obliged to appeal to the professor for a change in the seating of the class. Don't be so conceived as to think you know more than all the other students, the faculty, and the authors of the standard text-books combined. Don't be so disorderly in classes as to make yourselves the center of attraction. Don't spend your time during a recitation hour in writing notes. Don't tear your notes into a thousand and one pieces and scatter them on the floor in the library or a recitation room. Don't go to the class for more than two weeks at a time prepared to say: "Not prepared, professor." Don't place your hands in your pocket when you rise to recite.—Volante.
The Athletic association should buy some racing boats instead of spending money on a rank base ball club.
The faculty of other institutions seem to take more interest in oratory than do our faculty. One professor of rhetoric came from a far off State with the orator who represented that State. It is only fair to suppose that the professor did not come merely as a spectator but to render all the assistance in his power to that orator. We may be pardoned for asking how much the professor of rhetoric and oratory in this institution trained in delivery our representatives to the last State contests. If oratory is a thing to be discouraged for what reason have we a professor of oratory? Why support such a department? But if oratory is a thing to be encouraged, why is it that our representatives at the State contests have not received the proper amount of training? Every defeat lowers the institution in the opinion of the people. We do not intend to blame any member of the faculty. They all have plenty to do, but we do wish to remind every one of the necessity for training our orators and also of the fact that so far as we know no special pains have yet been taken in drilling our orator for the state contests. As a consequence of this we have been defeated in several contests.—Hesperian.
The profits of the oratorical contests at Galesburg have been expended in the purchased of a trophy to be presented to the Inter-Collegiate Athletic Association. Much credit is due the Knox students for the way in which they managed the contest, gaining enough profit for the purchase of a $125 cup. It is in the form of a solid silver and gold cup, to be known as "The Championship Cup" of the I. I. C. A. A. The main features of the work are of silver, the cup itself resting upon a tripod of crossed base ball bats in minature, while beneath the base ball rests upon the standard. Pendant in loops from the bat is a gold rope, emblematic of the tug-of-war. Upon the tug proper are engraved four shields, one of which portrays a tennis game in progress, another a base ball diamond, a third a youth running the 100-yard dash, and the fourth bears the inscription, 'Annual Prize given the I. I. C. A. A. by Knox, Oct. 4, 1889.' The raised figures on the shields are of solid gold, and the cup is lined with gold. The top, which is removable, is surmounted with a picturesque figure representing a foot-ball player about to kick a ball. The cup will be the property of the Inter-Collegiate Athletic Association, and will be awarded each year to the college winning the most points at the annual tournaments of the association held in connection with the oratorical contest." 'The colleges of the association haye something to work for, and there is no reason for them not making records as good as those held by their eastern sisters. The State University fellows have possession of the cup, they having won most points

at Galesburg. The Rambler looks forward with confident hope to the time when the meet of the I. I. C. A. A, will cease to be a side show in connection with the I. I. C. A., and will be given a date in the spring, as it deserves. Athletics are gaining a more permanent place in educational institutions from year to year; in the west the colleges of Illinois are taking the lead in the matter, and within a few years their athletic interests will have reached such a condition as to require a special meeting, for which better preparations can be made, and which will give better results. If the college papers of Illinois will take up the matter and keep hammering away at it the change can be brought about.—College Rambler.

K. S. U. VS.MC COOKS.
The K. S. U. ball nine won the second game of the season at For Leavenworth last Saturday, and that hands down over a club which has as good a reputation as any club in the state. The University especially, rejoices in these victories coming as they do after two bad defeats, and in spite of the fact that the nine is composed this year largely of new material. These victories but show what hard work will do towards putting up a good game of ball. Smith pitched another effective game, having the McCooks entirely at his mercy. Davis caught a good game, and he also made the first home run that has been made by any member of the team this year. The players and score are as follows:

FACULTY—SENIORS.
For the first time since the annual ball game between these two bodies were started, the faculty has scored a victory over the Seniors. The game was exciting from the first and resulted in a tie of 17 to 17 at the end of the seventh inning, the faculty finally winning by the score of 20 to 19. Proffessors Canfield and Sterling made an excellent battery for the faculty and to them mainly is the glorious victory due Watson and Armstrong, the Senior battery, also did good work. Regent Spangler and Clerk Moody umpired a faultless game. After the game the faculty were taken in hacks to Raymond's where they were refreshed with Mead. The following were the players:

HURRAH for the ball nine. We take back without any mental reservation whatever we have said about the K. S. U. nine not being able to play ball. We cheerfully offer the University nine as the champion amateur nine of the state. Thirteen to four against the McCooks of Leavenworth is sufficient to establish the reputation of any Kansas nine. Our compliments boys, you did well. The University is proud of you.
THE Washburn Reporter voices our sentiments on the exchange question. The Reporter prefers to give extracts or "samples" from its exchanges to show what they are really doing in preference to making tame comments, falsely called criticisms. That is the idea which we have tried to carry out in our exchange column. Nobody cares to hear that "Bitter Creek University Octopus" comes to our desk with an excellent issue, or that the "Missouri College Gambler" has a fine sporting column, or that, the "Dodecahedron" from the Smith Academy has recently improved its appearance by a new cover. And then there is another class of items which we find so frequently in exchange columns of college papers, such as "China has the oldest University in the world."
"The fraternity initiates of the U. S. number 75,000," and then last, and most execrable of all the abominations which go to fill up the miscellaneous hodge-podge which constitutes the exchange columns of so many student's papers, are the jokes. Oh the jokes. Jokes that Confucius heard from his grandfather. All such rubbish does not belong in an exchange column. What we prefer to do is to present extracts from the different college papers, which we consider interesting.
Dolly Graeber has nice boats.
BEING obliged to leave within a few days, we will be unable to personally supervise the last two issues of the paper, and have placed the KANSAN for the last two weeks in the hands of Messrs. Whitman and Hadley who will do themselves credit in the manner in which they will close up the work of the KANSAN for the year. Mr. R. D. Brown will act as Managing Editor. The last issue will be a double Commencement number and will contain many interesting features.
The work of maintaining a creditable weekly paper in the University is no light one. We doubt if students as a rule have any idea of the amount of time and attention a college paper takes. You see the local man around taking notes, but you don't know how much of his time is consumed in hunting around for items of interest. You read the athletic news, but you do not know how many scores of games, lists, announcements and information of all kinds pertaining to the athletic work in the University have to be made out accurately and carefully in order to form a correct report. You read editorial and exchange columns, but you do not know anything about running down to the printing office four or five times a week to see that the copy is in, proof read and the paper brought out on time. You have no idea of the amount of money necessary to run a college paper like the KANSAN or the Courier. It would open your eyes if we told you, and all this money must come from your subscriptions and from the advertisements of the business men of Lawrence,—or if these fail, from——! Never mind; run a paper yourself, and will see where it comes from. Now what is all this time and trouble and expense undertaken for? For the sake of the University and for your interests. All that is asked in return is your subscription and yur appreciation. As to the KANSAN this year of 1889-90, we are very well satisfied with the work it has done, and the satisfaction which it seems to have given. The management of the paper this term have endeavored to make it interesting, and a fair representative of the body of students. We have tried to be fair and impartial, and have always advocated what we thought to the best interests of the students and our University. If we have in any measure succeeded, we are satisfied with our work. To any students contemplating work on the college papers next year, we would say one thing. Go slow, and decide carefully be fore hand whether you can afford to put in the time which will be required. If you decide that you can, then go in and do your leve best. In closing we wish to thank the students and faculty for their many expressions of good will, and our contemporary the Courier for its uniform courtesy toward us.

The proposed Farewell Service for all students, at the Episcopal church, next Sunday morning, promises to be a success. It is very proper and very pleasant for all students to meet together on the last Sunday before the close of the University year, for a last service The north half of the Episcopal church will be reserved, and the two Professors Canfield will act as ushers. The service is set for next Sunday because so many students leave as soon as examinations are over. Let every student be present. It is suggested that each fraternity go in a body, and some have already concluded to do this. Services begin promptly at eleven o'clock.
In another column we have copied an article from the Goup d'État describing a society which has been organized at Knox College for the purpose of preserving college publications. We wonder why such a thing has never occurred to any one here. It certainly would have a very valuable work to perform. The University was founded in 1866, but, with the exception of the catalogues there is not preserved in the University library a single college publication of a date previous to ten years after the founding of the University. Take for instance the college papers. If we remember rightly, the earliest issues of the Review or the Courier which are to be found in the library, are of the years 1878 or '79. We have copies of all the college annuals, but of the early papers and some of the later ones, there are no files. Then the programmes, notices, newspaper clippings, and other little matters pertaining to events happening at the University, these ought to be preserved. How much easier it would be, if at some future time some one would wish to write a history of the University, for him to have within his reach this mass of material which can be collected and preserved with so little trouble. Such an organization as the Memorabilia Society of Knox can do a good work in this line, and we hope that next year some enterprising students will organize something of the kind at K. S. U.
The Coup d Etat has before this deplored the lack of any authentic body in connection with Knox College whose business it might be to preserve and carefully file away, not only for future reference, but as a matter of historic interest, all college publications, programs of public exercises and the many relics and souvenirs of college life that accumulate from year to year, only to be ultimately destroyed, lost or stolen. Therefore, with unfeigned pleasure, we welcome to our midst the new organization, a more extended notice of which appears elsewhere, called very appropriately the "Memorabilia Society." There are croakers, of course, who will fail to see the use of such an organization. These are those, however, who have no college spirit and are generally blind to the uses of everything that does not directly concern their own narrow field of vision. Others may think that we have too many organizations already to take up the student's time, and that this will be a still further drain upon the golden moments that should be devoted to solid study. But it is understood that the Memorabilia Society will in a degree systematize a large amount of work which now takes much time to attend to without the medium of its aid. It proposes to limit its membership to eight men, who are to be selected from year to year from among those students who have manifested a natural interest in matters of this kind, and the society will endeavor to gain for itself a reputation such that election to membership in it will deemed a high honor and one worthy to be sought after by underclassmen. It would seem that the simple fact that there is not to-day in Knox College a complete file of the Goup d'Etat or Commencement programs, and that even the college itself does not keep a file of its own catalogues and that there is not a complete set of the latter in existence, except, perhaps, as the private property of one of the professors—were all the justification necessary for the organization of the Memorabilia Society. In view of this state of affairs, it would also seem that the plan ought to meet with the hearty approval and cooperation of our Faculty, and we believe that it will. In its efforts to collect and preserve historic data, it is hoped that it will meet with that obliging courtesy and sympathy from both students and alumni that its worthy purpose bespeak. Success and a long life of usefulness therefore to the Memorabilia Society of Knox College.—Goup d'Etat.

SMOKE RINGS.
I'm sitting, to night by the fire-light,
In the glad old college hall;
The fragrant jet from the cigarette
Dot dreamly rise and fall.
The dear old house 'mid the leafy dome,
And the hamlet down below.
Come floating back on the bounding track
Of mem'rey's ebb and flow.
The happy gleams of faded scenes;
The school-room carved and dun,
The little girl with the golden curl,
Soft eye and rippling fun.
Ab, pure old scene, from memory's sheen,
You shame this dizzy strife.
To-night I'm sad, on the morrow glad;
Ha, ha! 'tis college life!
—Rudoin Orient.
"A FRIENDLY CALL?"
He comes at eve,
You rise, receive,
And of his hat relieve him.
His flow of talk
You do not balk.
You know you can't deceive him.
His dress is neat,
His accents sweet,
His logic beyond question.
Until he's through,
'Twill never do
To offer a suggestion.
"And who is he?"
You ask of me,
"And what his friendly mission?"
"A friendly call?"
No; not at all,
"Tis merely a—"subscription."

AT THE BALL GAME.
Her hair with sunshine laden,
Her rosy cheeks alame,
She is as sweet a maiden
As ever watched a game.
The score is tied! The crisis
Is just about to come,
When—great and gracious Isis!
The maiden starts for home.
Her hair with sunshine laden,
Her cheeks alame may be,
And yet I fear this maiden
Is not the girl for me.
—Brunonian
THE GIRL OF THE PERIOD.
Oh maid, though now thou seemecm fair to me,
I fear that sometime will thy beauty fade.
For fashion's dictates are sole guides for thee;
And though thoun't now in beauteous garb arrayed.
Remember, if thou't follow her decree,
Though maid thou art, but tailor-made
THE AWFUL SECRET.
Then swift the horrid rumor fills,
Even increasing in its rise,
A thousand little tongues of flame
Burn to reveal the awful shame,
A thousand mouths the words combine
"He curls his hair with a curling iron."
The Central College Gem is quite a religious paper. A large part of its space is devoted to articles of that nature.
EXCHANGE NOTES.
WHAT NOT TO WRITE.
When one is about to prepare an oration or an essay two questions are asked: 'What subject shall I take?' and 'Where can I "read up" on this?' Then, with a title suggested by some friend and with matter borrowed in a more or less altered form from various books, an 'original' production is given to the world.
Let K. S. U. students think of this. You may want your college papers for reference in some future time, and it will be worth your while to preserve copies of the papers.
It would be interesting to know how many of the students of Pomona College read The Student. We would advise them to preserve each number for future reference. When they are no longer college students and the incidents of their college life have passed away, a pleasant hour may be spent in looking over the old issues of their paper, which contain the haps and mishaps of their school life, with all of its pleasant associations.
—Pomona Student.
To us it seems that here are two mistakes. First, a subject is taken of which the writer knows but little; and, secondly, this want of knowledge is repaired by means of borrowed matter. Hardly any one has reached an age at which he is expected to write original essays without having made a specialty of something. He may have formed ideas on school government, on the proper proportion of labor and rest for the student, on athletics or sermons. On such themes he can write and speak intelligently and these are what he should take. It is a mistake to select a subject entirely or nearly new, and trust to 'cramming' for inspiration. Much better take a common place theme and discuss it well than write vaguely of something not understood.
We would not be understood as claiming that no new subjects should be studied. One should use every possible means of broadening his knowledge. Moreover, he will find writing of notes or abstracts a most valuable aid in mastering a theme. What we do claim, and what will be admitted by all, this: Occupying, as every speaker does or should do, the position of instructor to his audience for the time, the young orator should be able to speak with authority; and to do this he must speak of what he himself understands. Hence the incongruity, not to say absurdity, of many combinations of speaker and subject—a coward urging to noble deeds; a dullard dealing with abstract science; a rake lauding morality; a student instructing the doctors. A good rule is: "Know what you are talking about; and talk about what you know." College Life.
What economy is there in paying our professors such salaries that they watch for an opportunity to get away? It may be that, if every man in the faculty should have the same amount, the figure is high enough. But we have professors who are certainly worth more than they get. We hope that a good share of the appropriation which President John will ask for in June will be applied to salaries. Buildings are desirable but above all let us maintain a strong board of instruction.—De Pawe Adz.
Large salaries are what the most of our professors need here. It is getting rather disappointing to see a professor called away with an offer of a large salary and better faciities for working, just as soon as he has developed the talent that is in him, and is beginning to win a name.
Now is the time to take a row.

In the last United States light house report to the Senate there is given quite a detailed account of Prof. Blake's method for preventing collisions on the ocean. He has gained quite a reputation in this line. The report says. "It is hoped that Prof. Blake may find opportunity to continue his experiments, as he seems to be on the verge of producing a practical and accurate instrument of value to mariners. It seems that not only the reputation of the University, but also that of its Professors is felt out side the state.

LAWRENCE, KAS., MAY 30.
F. C Stimpson went to Kansas City Monday and obtained a position for the summer as manager of a dynamo in the electric light station. He will leave to begin work next Friday.
A speaker in his talk at the convention last week on the subject of "Literature for the Young" urged the importance of reading history. Young people do not give the attention to history in their reading that they should. The light, fascinating novel does not require the concentration of mind that the dry and sober details of history do; and so when there are but a few hours to spend in reading, as a kind of rest from studies or other duties, the novel is chosen instead of the history. The history of our own country, with which every young person and student should make himself familiar, and especially that part of it which covers the period from the Revolution to the Civil war, possesses all the fascinating power that any one could ask. That was the formative period of that type of character known as American. During that period the constitution, an untried document, was tested in all its workings. Then it was that the influences were being created which brought together the hostile forces in '61. No part of our history is so little read as this, and if carefully read, no part gives a better insight into the workings of the government. If you would know the true character of our government and people, you must make yourselves familiar with this formative period of our national life. Read the work of Irving; Parton's lives of Burr and Jackson; the lives of Jefferson, Calhoun, Clay and Webster; and Benton's Thirty Years in Congress. No student should leave Monmouth College, where works of this character can be read so easily, without having made himself master of this period of our history.—Annex.
This very work is thoroughly and completely covered by the two years course in American History which is offered at the University.
