Dr. J. R.Brown, of Leavenworth, an ex member of the board of the Pharmacy school, was in the city a few days ago. Dr. Brown is among the very best supporters of the Pharmacy school and is always welcome in our midst.
The Kansas Academy of Science will meet in Lawrence on the 5th, 6th, and 7th of November. This association includes most of the men of science in the state. It was organized more than twenty years ago, and has held annual meetings ever since. At these meetings are presented the results of work in various departments for the year. Many very valuable contributions to the natural history, and resources of Kansas have appeared in its proceedings Theoretical Science is by no means neglected, the work of the members being devoted to adding to the sum total of human knowledge, whether the facts ascertained have an immediate practical value or not
The meetings of the Academy will be held in Snow Hall, and students and the public generally will be welcomed at their sessions
The retiring Prof Failyer of Manhattan, will give a public lecture on Wednesday evening: A reception and an exhibit of lantern and microscopic slides will occupy the other evenings: It has been five years since the Academy met at Lawrence, and it is proposed to extend to these visitors the best welcome of the city and the University:
Athletic Association Meeting.
In compliance with the call of its president the junior class met in in room No.11 last Friday at the end of the fourth hour for the purpose of electing its officers for the ensuing year. The meeting was free from eliques and combinations and the heartiest good-will prevailed. The following officers were elected:
President, D. R. Rrehbill; Vice-
President, S. M. Simmons; Secre-
tary, J. H. Sawtell; Treasurer, W.
Truit; Historian, H. S. Hadley;
Poet, G. O. Virtue; Orater, H. B.
Hall; Sergeant at-Arms, H. E.
Copper; Prophet, W. W. Brown.
All those present received an office but three and as there is a committee on colors to be appointed these may yet be officially favored.
The enthusiastic mass-meeting of over two hundred students, male and female, in chapel last Tuesday, for the purpose of discussing athletic interests and electing officers is conclusive evidence that K. S, U. athletics are growing in importance and popularity.
Chancellor Snow called the meeting to order and stated its object. He also made some remarks in explanation of the generous offer of Mr. McCook and suggestions as to how we should avail ourselves of it. He was interrupted by applause several times.
The president of the association, Prof. Carruth then outlined the working and purposes of the association. Mr. Kellogg read the minutes of the last meeting. The following officers were then elected: President, A. G. Canfield; Secretary, M. A. Barber; Treasurer, H. Peairs; Members of Board, Clerk Moody, Jus. Bowersock, Prof. Sterling.
The meeting was then thrown open for general remarks and suggestions. Whitman suggested having field day in the fall of the year. Kellogg read a challenge from football club of Baker University. Prof. Canfield appealed for athletic enthusiasm. Greece was also heard from and the old Greek propensity asserted itself. Sparta said: "Let us neglect base-ball in the fall of the year and put in our energies on foot-ball." Athens said: "No. We must have base ball."
The following are the committees elected from the different interests as members on the general board: Boating, W. W. Brown, E. Robinson. Base ball, H. S. Hadley, Mr. Hoag. Tennis, Miss Laura Lockwood, R. Whitman. Foot ball, Mr. Case, Mr. Hunter.
The Theta ladies have arranged for a course of reading in Spanish history during the year.
No.4,
A Magnificent Display.
COURIER representative dropped in at the Millinery parlors of Mrs. Orme & Engle yesterday, and while he expected to see a fine display he was not prepared for the handsome array of new fall and winter millinery which met his eye. Wednesday and Thursday were the opening days of this handsome display, and great crowds of ladies have thronged the rooms both days. One of the amiable ladies of the firm took great pleasure in showing us the new novelties for this fall and explaining to us some of the new styles and colors which are in favor this fall. Both large and small hats are worn this fall, but the small seems to be mostly in favor. Some of the leading combinations in colors are turquoise blue and black, black and orange, silver and grey, stone grey and black, prune shades and gold, and others equally as pretty. Among the many handsome hats we were shown a black French capot trimmed with turquois blue and black velvet ribbon arranged in butterfly loops, also turquois blue and silver lace and silver turquois buckles.
Another very handsome hat is the Vesta shape, imported direct from Paris, and is the very latest Parisian style. This is a large hat made of handsome black velvet, black outside, inside orange, with facing of French head tips and knots of black velvet. The outside trimming is of all black pompon, black tips and loops of velvet ribbon. These are only samples of the hundreds of others just as handsome and at prices reasonable.
Be sure and visit the parlors of Orme & Engle before purchasing your new hat. 837 Massachusetts street, upstairs.

While attending the University. A trip home at

Entered at the post office at Lawrence, Kansas,
as second class matter.
THE COURIER greets you to day, the only weekly newspaper in the University. For sometime it has been manifest that two weekly papers were not needed; that they were a burden to those who managed them, to the business men of Lawrence and besides were no particular credit either to the University or to those connected with them. A consolidation between the KANSAN and COURIER has therefore been effected and the long and useless newspaper fight is at an end. The name of COURIER has been retained because that name is associated with University journalism from its very beginning. The KANSAN will hereafter be only a worthy and respected name. The COURIER will make no great promises for the future for it knows that any great improvement will only come slowly and by hard work. It shall be its constant endeavor, however, to bring more aim and purpose into University journalistic work; and by introducing more thorough and systematic methods of management to make work on the paper pleasurable and profitable. For if those connected with the paper are doing the work because they love that work, then a University paper will be a credit and may become a beneficial factor in University life. On the other hand, if those connected with the paper are only so from a sense of duty and under compulsion, then the work will be done half heartedly and a paper will fulfill no mission what ever. It is to be hoped that one weekly paper will be the beginning of better things in newspaper work.
A CLASS LEAGUE.
The question of an inter-fraternity B. B. league has been discussed and agreed upon, i. e., agreed that a league should be formed, but no one was courageous enough to lay hold of the problem and unravel the tangled threads so that the championship would be with our and only our frat; In order that the prize or honor may indisputably be awarded each frat must play each of the others, making five games each, or a total of thirty games. It will readily be seen that the season is too far gone for such a schedule. Instead, each fraternity may claim
the championship until wrested from them. Thus: the Phi Psis are champions now by reason of their victory over the Phi Gams until their team is defeated by some other fraternity nine. This would develop base ball talent if each frat would play at least one game for championship but in as much as several would concede their lack of powers on the diamond, we fear the games would be few and far between.
The solution of this difficulty is the organizing of class nines and a series of games between them this fall. The seniors need the practice for their coming game with the Faculty next spring, the juniors can have a chance at their enemies, the pompous senior, and the wily Sophomores can develop strategy by inducing unsuspecting Freshs to leave the base and be put out.
Such a league would develop class spirit and would bring out much better than the frat league, whatever good base ball material there is in the University. Let us have a class league and bring in the Laws andPharmacies too if they think they can play ball a little bit. A class league will be of far more benefit to the K. S. U. B. B. team than the inter-frat. We have said our say. Let it be done.
AULD LANEY SYNE.
While in Topeka a few days since the COURIER representative visited the State Historical rooms and spent an hour looking over the files of the great Religious Weekly for the years '84-'87 inclusive. Those were lively days in K. S. U. journalism. Jno. Sullivan seems to have been the moving spirit and the make up shows evidence of business activity as well as editorial excellence. The issue of Nov. 7th, '80, contains telegraphic dispatches giving the result of the result of the presidential election. But perhaps the most remarkable feature of those days was the COURIER motto: Fraternity rule must be broken and yet the COURIER staff seems to have been made up of fraternity men. Along in the fall of '85 the startling announcement is made that fraternity rule is broken, and it has remained broken ever since. The "virous" column of those days were filled with a discussion of ninisection by the lady students. It seems that the young ladies of six years ago were decidedly opposed to the way Professors Snow and Doyle disposed of the surplus cats of the historic city.
Another topic much discussed was whether students should frequent billiard halls, but then we must remember those were the days of compulsory chapel attendance, and even such an attendance as that may lead people to talk and write abent morals and cruelty to animals.
REV. F. W. GUNSAULUS, pastor of Plymouth church, Chicago, will next Tuesday evening deliver the first lecture of the University course, entitled "A Chapter in the
EXCHANGES.
History of Liberty. This snoot be cause for congratulation, as Mr. Gunsaulus is widely known as a powerful and effective orator. He is at home upon the platform, graceful and easy in gesture, fluent in delivery, convincing in argument. His vocabulary is rich and varied. He posesses all of those arts which go to make up an orator. He has a perfect mastery of his subject, and treats it with the feelings of a true scholar. Mr. Gunsaulus is not as well known in the west as in the east where he has done most of his work, but his reputation is rapidly extending and he is becoming more widely known every day. Mr. Gunsaulus is a graduate of the Ohio Wesleyan University. He began his ministerial career in a humble manner. He preached in several small towns, but his ability and power as an orator were early recognized, and he passed rapidly from Chillicothe, O., to Columbus, O., thence to Newton, Mass., thence to Baltimore where he was the pastor of Brown Memorial church. But after a brief service of about three years he was called to his present responsible post as pastor Plymouth church, Chicago. This is the first appearance of Mr. Gunsaulus in Lawrence and he should be greeted by a crowded house. No student can afford to miss this lecture.
Yes, dear Annex, we will run down in the near future as we have in the past. The Courier will "roll down the corridors of time" and bump against the pillars of eternity, making a stir and fuss all the time. We are not here to show off our rhetoric and Freshman English but to tell you that John Smith dropped in to see me and Prof. So and So has raised a beard. If you want literature, dear Annex, raise your standard high enough to exchange with the Review and you will get literature that even you will have to praise.
The Exonian prints a set of rules made by the Faculty of P. E. A. having bearing on the billard halls of Exeter. Certain hours are set apart during which the students may visit certain prescribed halls and while there must conform to certain set down rules. The rules themselves are broad enough but the whole thing seems little advanced from the rubber rings and tin rattle age.
A favorite theme with our would be literary exchanges seems to be, at present at least, "German University Life." Credit is due one of these papers and we would like to know which one. We noticed one fellow who had moral courage to write "selected" after he had bodily reproduced the article. Why is it not as easy to write the name of a paper as Selected or Exchange?
College Life had better send their funny man to "Judge" or "Puck" or he is liable to get hurt when the fool-killer makes his rounds. Articles about cattle playing tennis
Will the Hillsdale College Herald rise and explain its mission on earth?• Are you a college newspaper or are you here for a discussion of religious affairs with metaphysics on the side?
The University News is one of the most welcome papers that finds its way to our table. We don't just like its arrangement of its local and editorial matter, but then all in all in it is a "crack up" paper.
The Baker Beacon has improved more during the vacation than anything we have seen and she did not have to go to the sea shore and wear a bathing suit to do it either. It is one of the wheel horses of college journalism.

The Washburn Reporter and the Argo are shaking each other up in a manner that would suit the queen It seems that they had a contract for "you kick me and I'll kick you" and you kicked I too hard. The result is that you and I have gone to throwing English around in a mean manner. The new third reader about to appear will contain some of their editorials.

Mr. L. M. Spray, of the class of '82 was in the city last Saturday. Mr. Spray is now teaching in the Fairmount, Kan., schools.
PASSING along Massachusetts street we were attracted by the handsome display of Millinery Goods in Mrs. Savage's show windows. We went inside and found everything looking as new and bright as new goods and artistic taste in arrangement could make possible. Mrs. Savage had only a few moments to spare the reporter, but she said her fall opening, Wednesday and Thursday, was successful beyond expectation, that people appreciated the handsome stock of Millinery Goods which she was now offering at prices within the reach of all. Mrs. Savage says the new Prince Albert Tips are much worn this fall. Anyone with an eye for the beautiful should visit the rooms of Mrs. Savage, 901 Massachusetts street.

Mr. Campbell Watson, who was visiting whith his Beta brethren returned to Kansas City Friday.
When the faculty and regents inaugurate a regime whereby it becomes necessary for students to take noon lunches to the University it certainly does not seem more than fair and proper that they should provide some place to eat them. To sit on old boxes, grindstones and rusty pipes in a torn up basement room is far from pleasant. We would suggest that half a dozen lunch tables be placed in a convenient room where lunches may be eaten with some satisfaction.
If you want a suit of clothes that, will look nice, wear well and last a long time, go to Kunkle, the taylor.
Prof. Blake Returns.
Prof. Blake returned to the U. university last Monday from Portsmouth, N. H., where he has been during the summer conducting experiments in signaling between vessels at sea. This is the third summer that Prof. Blake has been engaged in these experiments, previous to this on his own account, but this year the U.S. government became interested in the matter and placed the government facilities at his command, so that he was able to work to better advantage than heretofore. A COURIER man in conversation with Prof. Blake learned that the proposed method, and which has alrenday been successful so far as tried, is to use electricity with the water as a medium. One of the great advantages of this new system will be the prevention of collisions beteen ocean steamships in fogs, as the present mode of fog signaling is entirely inadequate.
Prof. Blake will continue the experiments next summer in mid- ocean, and he is quite sanguine of ultimate success. Mr. E. W. Caldwell, a Kansas boy, accompanied Prof. Blake as assistant.
The Professor when asked concerning the report of his leaving K. S. U. replied that he had not accepted the offer made him last year, that he had great hopes for the K. S. U., and that he liked the students here. The Courier hopes that the Professor may find it to his interests to make K. S. U. his life work.

AMOE MENTS.
Saturday, Oct. 4th, Cleveland's Minstrels. Like all good people, Minstrel Manager W. S. Cleveland has enemies, who have never lost an opportunity to wish him bad luck and prophesy failure. To these pessimistic individuals the immense success that has blessed Cleveland's efforts is presumably as wormwood and gall. The good fortune of the past season has nerved Mr. Cleveland to organize a triumvirate of minstrel companies for next season. one of which is to be a genuine negro company; that, it is said, will dwarf into veriest insignificance anything else heretofore offered in that line. Upwards of sixty picked black artists have already been engaged for this "Colossal Colored Carnival" alone. The street display promises a treat to lovers of outdoor show.
It might be well for some of the new students to "pickle" a little of the Frat attention which is being bestowed upon them just at present. It may come in here later on.

If you desire fine clothing, in either Men's or Boys', you'd naturally go to a clothing store whose reputation was first and foremost for selling fine clothing. Thus it is, that year by year we have climbed a PEG HIGHER until to day no one disputes the fact that we sell the finest Ready-made Clothing there is manufactured.

Is K. S. U. to have a successful foot-ball club this fall? If so steps must be taken immediately to organize one. The Courier suggests that all who would like to be in a foot ball club hand their names to the president of the Athletic association, or some of the members and that the association appoint captains and organize two eleven right away. We have good material for an eleven here and all that it takes is a little systematic effort to develop a strong club. The Athletic association should wake up or it will lapse into an unconscious state and the students will take the matter into their own hands,

Tennis Tournament.
A tournament to decide the championship of the University will be held on the grounds of the West Lawrence club, this afternoon and
tomorrow. Play will begin this afternoon at 3 p. m. The following will probably play: Sherman, Bowersock, Hair, Armstrong, Hadley, Diggs, Canfield, Hudson, Allen, J. Whitman. Both singles and doubles will be played. The winner of the singles will play R. R. Whitman, the present champion of the University. Some exciting contests will undoubtedly take place.
The base ball committee of K. S. U. met on last Tuesday and elected the following names members of the Ball club: Harper, Crawford, Armstrong, Hoag, Sherman, Snoddy, "Davis, Kinsey, Kelsey, Simmons and Smith". There are some good players here and some that are just the reverse. One half of the players are new men and we have nothing to say of them as we know nothing of their playing ability when it comes to a close game, but to the old players we would say that you had better brace up and play ball for what it is worth and stop playing for the grand stand as was customary with some of the players last year. Affection in base ball, like every thing else, is a failure and should receive the ridicule it deserves.
There are over thirty students taking electrical engineering this fall. The positions in the state have heretofore been filled exclusively by men graduated from eastern colleges. Several of the graduates of this department last year are now occupying positions of considerable importance in this and surrounding states. A young man wishing to fit himself for this kind of work cannot do better than come to K. S. U.

EVERY student should subscribe for the Courier and help support one good weekly paper in the University. The improvement in the Courier will be marked by the increase of the interest and support of the students.
The first exchange received by the COURIER under the new regime was the El Dorado Republican, edited by W. A. White, better known in K. S. U. as Billy White. White is making a success in the newspaper business and he certainly deserves every bit of it.
WE HAD some doubt about the election of Congressman Funston this fall, but since we have learned that W. T. Reed, '87, is to stump the doubtful parts of the district with Funston, his election may be considered as certain. Will and Frank Reed are building up a splendid law business in Kansas City, Kas., besides occasionally doing a little political rustling.
IN THE issue of the Courier gotten out the week after the Times was started in the fall of '88 we find this affecting triolet:
"The Lion roareth.
The Whang-doo mobster,
But the Curwen goes on forever."
The Whang-doodle mourneth.
The Winhug about the Courier goes on forever." But the Courier's goes on forever."
Since that time the lion has roared several times and the Courier's Whang-doodle has mourned several times. As for the last line of the triplet, the Courier has not yet reached the forever limit but the prospect for doing so has been brightened considerably by consolidation with the Kansan.
The tennis players have received an invitation to attend the fourth tournament of the Kansas Lawn Tennis League to be held at Wichita, Oct. 14 and 15. This tournament is to decide the championship of Kansas, in both singles and doubles for 1890. K. S. U. now claims the championship of the state in tennis, owing to its continual series of victories in the state. While it will not be possible for any of our players to be at Wichita next week, we are willing to arrange matches in both singles and doubles with the winners of the Wichita tournament; the matches to be played at some central point and at a convenient time.
THE staff of the COURIER is now organized and ready for work. The editor will esteem it a favor if each student will take notice who the members of the staff are, and aid them in securing any news items that are thought to be of interest. It is only in this way that the COURIER can be a representative newspaper
EARLHAM College, Indiana, reports that Kansas has a larger delegation of students in attendance than that of any other state. Kansas sends six students, all in full collegiate standing. It seems strange considering the superior educational advantages which this state possesses, that citizens should send students to a little college in Indiana. Some people never see anything good in home institutions.
No student should fail to hear Dr. Gunsaulus to night on "A Chapter in the History of Liberty." We have no hesitancy in affirming that Dr. Gunsulus is the most powerful orator that has visited Lawrence for years. Besides being eloquent he is forebic and logical. He has a subject that will be of interest to all. Of the many fine notices of Dr. Gunsaulus we print one from the University Voice. "Dr. Gunsaulas came forward with the ease and grace of a practical orator. His full round voice and clear enunciation made every syllable audible in all portions of the house. In powerful condensation of thought, clear analysis of motives, and portrayal of critical periods and events, Dr. Gunsaulus proved himself a master. As 'an orator, his great fame is well deserved.' Let every student turn out tonight and give the opening lecture of the University course a rousing house.
THE Review for September is a fairly good number. It contains Chancellor Snow's "Inaugural Address," delivered at the University, June 11th, 1890. The Alumni address, "An Island Literature," delivered by Mrs. Blackwelder, June 12th, 1890. A short poem by the editor and the usual editorial and local matter. While the Review is an excellent magazine we think that along certain lines there is much room for improvement. The Review does not seem at present to represent the literary activity of the undergraduate students. Perhaps it does, but we suggest to the editor that the coming year he get out as much literary work from the undergraduates as is possible. Surely there is a great deal of original work being done here that would be worthy of publication. Possibly the standard of the Review might be lowered but it would arouse much more interest from the student body because it would come into closer relations with that body. Students would be spurred on to work outside of their text books into special fields of research, by seeing what their fellow students were thinking and doing. It would help create a literary spirit. Such a
spirit must be developed before we do the work of a true University. The Review should throw itself into line with the broad spirit of education which is permeating all our larger institutions of learning. That is, an attempt should be made to discuss live University questions. Questions not local in their nature but pertaining to University educational matters in their broadest scope. The college world is now full of thought on the subject of athletics—the value of athletics in University life. A series of articles on the different phases of athletics would be extremely interesting and instructive. University extension, optional system of class attendance, optional chapel attendance, etc. These are some of the questions being agitated at present. Let the Review take hold of them and show if possible what the western college men think on these subjects. We have not space here to discuss at length the lines in which we think the Review might broaden out but we simply suggest that it place itself into line with modern educational thought and become a true representative of the life and spirit of the University. It means earnestness and work, but it can be done.
THE PHYSICS WORK-SHOP.
The University is touching the life of our state at more and more points every year. Already it has supplied Kansas with many of the best teachers she has. The Law school, the civil engineering department, the school of Pharmacy are even now having a material influence on the prosperity and advancement of our state, while the clear political ideas held up before students in the department of political economy can not but effect the affairs of Kansas for the better. The department of which we wish to speak, however, has had its workshop in operation but one year. The Physical laboratory with its three thousand dollars worth of machines cannot as yet, of course, show any result in the state's industrial life. But that it must quicken that life, no one can question who has examined the shop and the character of the work done there. Under the direction of an experienced workman students are becoming fitted to superintendent workshops with little further experience. Finally, we advise all students who have not visited the laboratory at the engine room to do so and get a larger idea of the magnitude of the University and it intimate connection with work day life in our state.
ITS FIRST MEETING.
The Seminary of Historical and Political Science held its first meeting Friday afternoon, Sept. 26th at 4 o'clock. The increase of interest in political science and subjects pertaining to governments among our students has been quite marked for a number of years and the seminary has grown to its present size and popularity by stimulating and guiding the students in further research and study along this line.
Professor Canfield then delivered thedirector's annual address. It was a plea for a more sober view of life, a recognition of individual responsibility, and a wise use of the opportunities afforded for,active and intelligent citizenship. If we had the space we should like to publish the address in full but excellent accounts of it may be had from the Record and Journal. We predict a most successful year for the seminary and know that it has proven and will prove a most important auxiliary to the study of economic questions.
The seminary will meet every other Friday afternoon except on the occasion of some special programme. ___
MONEY FOR ATHLETICS.
Professor Canfield gave a short account of the origin and growth of the seminary. Prof. Blackmar followed with a review of the work done last year and an outline of the work to be done this year. Besides the work to be done by the active members, which includes reports on all the economic and social questions of the day, arrangements have been made to have a number of prominent men from different parts of the state read papers on economic subjects. Among those who have consented to read papers are Chas. F. Scott, editor of the Iola Register; Frank H. Betton, labor commissioner; W. W. Ayres, pastor Episcopal church of this city; Geo. R. Peck, of Topeka; James Humphrey, railroad commissioner; C. G. Howland, pastor of the Unitarian church of this city and others.
The newly elected Board of Directors of the Athletic Association have begun an active campaign to increase the fund which is being accumulated for the preparation of permanent grounds. Many have already been given an opportunity to contribute and all will be called upon within a few days. The board has decided upon a complete personal canvass of all students of the University. We think this is right. For this is a public matter in which all who have the good standing and prosperity of the University at heart have not only an interest but a duty. The University gives us almost all of its advantages absolutely free. There is hardly an institution in the land which asks from its students so small a money return for what it gives them. It would be too bad if the result of this were to weaken our love for the K. S. U. and make us feel that we do not owe her anything. We shall never pay her all that we owe her, indeed, and it is fortunate for us that she does not ask it of us; but the very least that we can do is to support loyally and generously those interests of the college world which the University finds itself as yet unable to provide for with the same liberality with which it affords instruction. That these interests
are no less essential than the others to the complete health and symmetry of the whole university body is abundantly proved by the experience of the older institutions, though it is perhaps natural that legislatures should be slow to see it. But legislatures will see it all the sooner when they find that the student world itself is keenly aware of it and is making some sacrifices to help itself.
And we should not hesitate to make something of a sacrifice. The object is worth it. And the time could not be better chosen for an effort than now, for under the conditions of the promise made by Col. McCook to one of our regents each dollar given now draws to it another from our generous benefactor. The amount raised among the students last year was good as a beginning, but it should be much larger. Eastern college men think nothing of subscribing twenty-five and fifty dollars towards the expenses of the foot-ball team or the crew, and that, too, although the college charges them a hundred or a hundred and fifty dollars for their tutition. Of course the whole scale of expense is higher there, but hardly ten times higher. There are many among us who spend five dollars upon themselves without over much hesitation. Why should there not be fifty five-dollar subscriptions? If athletic grounds can be put in shape by next spring, there is no reason why those who are now Freshmen may not enjoy the possession of a gymnasium before they leave their Alma Mater. And that should move the Freshmen to meet the solicitors with especial liberality.

Legitimate Drama.
Nature has peculiarly fitted Mr. McLean for the role—a frame like Herculus, a voice like Mars, a carriage like Jupiter, he looks and acts the ideal barbaric chieftain—Minneapolis Journal, April 29.
The Lawrence favorites, R. D. McLean and Marie Prescott, Monday Oct. 13, in "A Perfect Spartacus"
R. D. McLean appeared as "Spartacus" at the Grand opera house last night, for the first time in Minneapolis. Mr. McLean fills the part perfectly in its physical requirements and his feeling and expression are excellent. In his agony at the news of the death of his wife his acting is the most vivid, though his tenderness to the Sonora is equally well presented as the other extreme of his power. The part of Senora brings Miss Prescott but little before the audience, but her presentation of a gentle and strong woman is so perfect that she leaves a deep impression.—Minneapolis Tribune.

SOMETHING BIG IN BAKKAIN'S
If you were to get a horse shod you'd naturally go to a blacksmith's shop. If you desire fine clothing, in either Men's or Boys', you'd naturally go to a clothing store whose reputation was first and foremost for selling fine clothing. Thus it is, that year by year we have climbed a PEG HIGHER until to-day no one disputes the fact that we sell the finest Ready-made Clothing there is manufactured. Nothing in Suits or Overcoats for either
Men or Boys is too fine for our store, no style is too new for us to introduce. You come to us expecting to find Stylish Clothing. You are not disappointed in finding them; and our profit added to the cost, makes a price so small that it surprises you such fine garments can be sold so low.
The ladies are sharp in shopping and detect at once a difference in price or quality in Boys' Clothing. It's gratifying to us in the extreme to listen to the comments heard in our Children's department, among ladies, upon the new adventures about town. Why, did you think any one could show you finer Boys' Clothes than we can? Well, we guess not. In the future, as in the past, we shall lead in all our lines.

THE FACULTY
Observed from a Different View Point.
The question has been raised as to the size (physically speaking) of the faculty of the University. In order to determine this the average of twenty six men have been ascertained with the following result. Average weight, 145.8 pounds; height, 5ft, 9in; size of hat, 7.2,size of shoe 7.2, size of collar 15.3. These numbers correspond quite closely to the average of men in other callings and professions.
Kunkle, the taylor, has a large stock to select from.
The Lawrence Tennis Club met Wednesday evening at Woodward's drug store. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, Jus Bowersock; secretary, C. A. Peabody; treasurer, L. C. Diggs. It was decided to hold a tournament Friday afternoon and Saturday, Oct. 10th and 11th and a committee composed of Bowersock, Whitman, Hudson and Babbit was selected to arrange for it. It was also decided to have back-nets put up on the north side of the grounds and some other improvements made. The affairs of the club are in a prosperous condition and the club has done nearly all that has been done for tennis in Lawrence and the University.

Students when having a good time, often desire something by which to remember the occasion. See those excellent tintypes at Geo. R. Shane's studio. Only place in town for tintypes.
Finney received a telegram from Feller Saturday evening informing him of his nomination for county attorney by the democrats of Grey county. Feller is one of the men of whom the University will have reason to be proud.
Students should not fail to visit the studio of Geo, R. Shane. He is offering some special inducements to students and his work is now of the best. With increased facilities for turning out work promptly, new furnishings and accessories he is sure to please you.
The Kent Club bids fair to do better work than last year, when it was recorded as one of the best societies in the University. Mrs. Brown is a good efficient presiding officer and is doing all in her power to make the meetings of interest, not only to the members but to visitors as well.
Some of the professors lately have been keeping their classes after the second bell rings. This does not pay even if it is the fourth hour. Many of the students have classes at 2 o'clock and have little enough time to get dinner and get back up the hill. And more than that it is 1 o'clock and time to quit anyway.

Prof. Bailey conducted chapel this week. Chapel exercises are being well attended and are quite interesting.
It was cold for a truth that Ernest Blaker and Malcolm McKinnon attended Sunday school a week ago.
There are places on Ohio street where the weeds almost cover the walk. The walk is passable only for one at a time. This might do for a Rip Van Winkle town, but it does not seem in keeping with a town like Lawrence. Ohio street would make a good route to the University and is used by quite a number of students despite the weeds and poor walks.

There are some men in Lawrence, even, who have a slight streak of meanness in their makeup. As long as there were two University papers they refused their patronage on that score, and now that there is only one they still procrastinate. We will give particulars later.
Calcareous deposits (tartar) are chiefly responsible for the loss of the teeth and too much cannot be said of the importance of having all such deposits removed, and of keeping them removed.

The St. Charles Theater is having a streak of good business luck Following the big opening week of "MeCarthy's Mishaps," came last night a good company playingchas. H. Hoyt's skit called "A Tin Soldier." The house was filled to the brim, and the play made a hit with the audience. This play might be called "A Young Housekeeper's Mishaps." It shows how the Bridge family were put upon by the conscienceless plumber and his apprentice boy, by their own servants, by tramps, and by their neighbors. No one looks for plot or intelligence in Hoyt's pieces; but the success of "Bunch of Keys," "Rag Baby," and others have given the public a right to look for fun in them, and it is found in "A Tin Soldier." Arthur Dunn is a great little man and a wonderful dancer, who has been coming to New Orleans ever since he and his little sister Jennie came here with a juvenile "Pinafore" company years ago. This time he is Rats, the plumber's bad boy, and he made a big lot of fun in an active manner. Miss Kitty Kursale is a lovely woman and a very graceful dancer. Miss Hollywood makes a telling part of the girl who lives next door and comes to borrow things for the Hoggs. At the opera house Wednesday, Oct. 22.

The affairs of the club are in a prosperous condition and the club has done nearly all that has been done for tennis in Lawrence and the University.

Some of the professors lately have been keeping their classes after the second bell rings. This does not pay even if it is the fourth hour. Many of the students have classes at 2 o'clock and have little enough time to get dinner and get back up the hill. And more than that it is 1 o'clock and time to quit anyway.

The St. Charles Theater is having a streak of good business luck Following the big opening week of "McCarthy's Mishaps," came last night a good company playingchas. H. Hoyt's skit called "A Tin Soldier." The house was filled to the brim, and the play made a hit with the audience. This play might be called "A Young Housekeeper's Mishaps." It shows how the Bridge family were put upon by the conscienceless plumber and his apprentice boy, by their own servants, by tramps, and by their neighbors. No one looks for plot or intelligence in Hoyt's pieces; but the success of "Bunch of Keys," "Rag Baby," and others have given the public a right to look for fun in them, and it is found in "A Tin Soldier." Arthur Dunn is a great little man and a wonderful dancer, who has been coming to New Orleans ever since he and his little sister Jennie here with a juvenile "Pinafore" company years ago. This time he is Rats, the plumber's bad boy, and he made a big lot of fun in an active manner Miss Kitty Kursale is a lovely wom an and a very graceful dancer Miss Hollywood makes a telling part of the girl who lives next doo and comes to borrow things for the Hoggs.

SEMINARY MEETING.
The Seminary of Historical and Political Science met Oct, 10th, in room number 14. The Seminary was called to order by the director, Prof. J. H. Canfield, who spoke for a few moments on the character of the papers to be presented by the students. Each paper should be a summary of all material, upon the subject in hand, to be found in the library.
The report of last meeting was read by Mr. Morse. Mr. Fred Kellogg read a paper on "The Place and Function of the Machine in Politics." He defined the machine in politics as the means of carrying out the ends and aims of leadership. The increase of population and of voters has made the modern political machine a complex affair. Corruption and the machine are, by many, supposed to be synonamous terms, but corruption is by no means a necessary part of the machine. Its aim should be to control appointments and not to obtain them. In the discussion of this paper Prof. Canfield brought out very strongly this idea, "The evil of this machine lies in the fact that the candidate is a beneficiary."
Mr. Paul Hudson read the last paper, subject, "Recent Return to Water Transportation." Twenty-five years ago there was very little public interest manifested in canals. This was due to increasing interest in railways. The latter can be used at all seasons of the year, while the former are closed forty per cent of the time. Another reason for the decline of canals was the lack of system in their management, and the use of modern appliances. The recent revival of interest in this subject is caused by the failure of the railways to meet public expectation; and the high rates demanded by them. The canal diminishes and regulates the cost of traffic, and relieves the railways of heavy freightage.
The second paper, "Deserted Farms of Vermont," was read by Mr. Holmes. There are five hundred thousand acres of deserted farm land in Vermont. This land can be bought for from one to four dollars per acre. The paper gave five reasons for this decline of agriculture: opening of western lands; the discrimination made by railroads, in favor of western produce; the large number of young men taken from the cast by the late war; the effects of the tariff; and the broken surface of the land and the cold climate. Two remedies were offered; to import and settle, free of cost, colonies of Swedes upon these deserted lands, and to exempt from taxation all lands which shall be put under cultivation.
A large number of students gathered in the Opera House last Friday evening to hear Dr. Gunsaulaus, of Chicago, deliver the first lecture of the University course.
The Seminary adjourned to meet October 24.
THE OPENING NIGHT.
At a little past eight Howard Penirs, on behalf of the lecture bureau, in a few neat words, introduced the speaker of the evening. Dr. Gunsaulus is a young man of medium height, with eyes rather sunken and a small dark mustache. His presence at first was not very prepossessing, but he soon warmed up to his subject and for two hours the large audience listened to him with the closest attention. Dr. Gunsaulus' theme was a "Chapter in the History of Liberty," and the particular chapter was that exceedingly interesting one which contains the life and times of Jerome Savonarola, the Florentine monk; and no one who heard the lecture will ever forget either the events of the time or the incidents in the life of Savonarola which were portrayed, for everything the speaker touched was immediately brought forward from the common gloom as if suddenly illuminated by a strong calcium light. Whether you see the boy Savonarola in his early youth, pleading for the Italian people, in love, or seeking inspiration by wandering by himself along the banks of the river Poe, or whether you see him holding the mob at Florenian in his grasp, or at the bedside of the dying Lorenzo de Medicin, or peacefully dying a martyr's death at the stake; it is a perfect picture that you see. In short it was a grand lecture, 'full of thought and inspiration, such a lecture as one rarely gets a chance to hear its equal. If Dr. Gunsaulus should come again he would be greeted by a much larger audience than he was this time.
CLASS organization in the University has in most proved a farce. Organized generally by a clique of fellows and with but a small number of the class present, the organization usually spends a little time wrangling about what kind of paraphnia to adopt; whether to make themselves conspicuous by a yell that will never be yelled, or a cane that will never be carried or a hat that will seldom be worn; and then as an organization sinks into oblivion. No class spirit has been engendered nor means taken for promoting that spirit or in bringing the clas into closer and more social relations—but soft—officers have been elected—that seems to be the ultimation of class organizaton. And the set of fellows who felt that their life depended on one of their number being made keeper of the royal pamphlets or kicker of the royal boots or something of the sort, drew off and say that the other fellows are running the organization. All this is not right. Let us have a more generous spirit in class organization. Let us think of somebody besides ourselves. It will be surprising how quickly the contagion will spread when once a few students commence doing things for the best interests of the University instead of for self agrandization and personal honor.
THE reorganizatin of the German club for the year is being talked of. Prof. Carruth has signified his willingness to assist and direct the work of the club and it only remains for the students of German to make known their desire to form such an organization. We hope that the club will be organized at once, for those interested in German can get no better practice in the ready use of the language than that to be obtained by concientious work in such a club. Besides being valuable in this way we know from the history of the club in previous years that it will be one of the most social and pleasant organizations that one can possibly belong to. We should like to suggest, however, that the work of our club be made to include French. Alternate programs of German and French could be given and practice in both languages thus obtained. We have not spoken to Prof. Canfield but we believe that he would heartily endorse such a club and take an active interest in its welfare.
We are commencing to do it in athletics; let the spirit spread over all other interests of the University as well.
The success of Judge West's recent collecting trip will be cause for congratulation to all who have the interest of the University at heart. Judge West is an enthusiastic and pains taking collector and the University is indebted to him for many of its rarest fossils. An account of some of the rare things collected on the last trip will be found in another issue.
THE COURIER wishes to acknowledge the receipt of the various college papers received in exchange. It has thus far been impossible for us to give more extended notices of the exchanges but we hope in the near future to publish each week some college notes taken from the different papers.

Base Ball.
The first part of last week the Phi Psi ball club issued a challenge to play a game of ball with any nine that could be made up in the University. This was seemingly a safe thing to do as they had just played two games of ball with the Phi Gams which resulted in a score that was very fluttering to the Phi Psi.
The challenge was accepted by Mr. Davis, captain of the University nine, and he immediately went to work to form a nine out of raw material as two of his players were playing wlth the Phi Psis. The following is a list of the players and their positions:
K. S. U.
PHISL
Simmons . . . 1st b. . . Armstrong
Harvey . . . 2nd b. . . Crawford
Davis . . . 3rd b. . . Hudson
Truit . . . ss. . . Hoag
Kenzie . . . p. . . Sherman
Kelsey . . . c. . . Frawster
Sawtell . . . rf. . . Pebody
Harper . . . lf. . . Hadley
Scholtz . . . cf. . . Dyer
This was the first appearance of the University battery and they did very well as a starter. Konzie was a little wild and gave several bases on balls. He does not seem to have much speed but nevertheless is very effective, Kelsey, who used to catch for Schilling, caught a very good game, but was a little weak in throwing to second—accurate enough but a little slow. As for the Phi Psi battery they had hard hitters to contend with this time and there were not so many strike outs. Sherman pitched a good game and had good support. Brewster caught his usual good game but could not throw them out a second.
The game was very hotly contested to the last inning. The Universities got a lead in the fourth inning and held it to the end of the game, which resulted in a score of 6 to 13 in their favor.
DIAMOND DUST.
The diamond had just been scraped and was in good condition.
Dyer is a new man in the ball business.
Sawtell is quite a base runner.
Harper made a couple of circus catches in left field.
Crawford made a good stop in the sixth inning.
Haog's work at short was commendable.
Peabody and Truit were too sure of their little flies.
There was a fair attendance at the game; enough to pay for grading the diamond.
Some of the sporting students are poorer and wiser.
Canfield umpired a good game.
The reception given by the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. Saturday night was well attended. All expressed themselves as having had an enjoyable time. The talk by Prof. Canfield was especially interesting.
The first run was made by Crawford in the third inning.
Harvey played an errorless game.

The New Webster.
Webster's International Dictionary is the book which is destined to go into every library, every public school, every household where American literature is received and where the English Language is studied.
The publishers have spent more than a quarter of a million dollars in bringing this work out in its unabridged, revised, enlarged and authentic form. It now takes the name "International" and this is intended to emphasize the fact that the language of the mother country now encircles the globe.
Every page has been treated as if the book were now published for the first time. The claim of the publishers is that it retains that excellence in dedefinition which has made Webster the safe and familiar authority to which judges, journalists, scholar, artisan and man of business refer, and that in etymology, pronunciation, citations and pictorial illustrations it carries to greater perfection the merits of its predecessors.
We believe that it abundantly justifies these modest claims, and that, as a comprehensive popular dictionary, it is likely to retain the pre-eminence which has long been held by "Webster's Unubridged." No dictionary can be final, but for the next 25 years the "International Dictionary" must be accepted as the best work of its kind in the English language.—Boston Herald, September 28, 1890.

The German club will probably be organized the coming week. All students wishing to form such a club should see Prof. Carruth at once.
The Chemical department has just purchased a Griffith Globe microscope. It may be of interest to note in this connection, that Mr. Griffith, the inventor of the above instrument, spent a day at the University on his recent western trip. He attracted about himself the teaching force in the scientific departments, and entertained them for several hours, giving them many valuable points, about testing instruments and mounting specimens

A Valuable Find.
One of the most valuable fossils that has ever been found in Kansas, consisting of a perfect skull and a large part of the neck of of a Plesiosaur, was recently obtained by Judge West for the University museum. The specimen, aside from its perfect preservation, is especially valuable by reason of its being the only known Plesiosaurian skull from the Niobrasa Cretaceous formation. Fragmentary remains are not very rare, portions of perhaps fifty individuals having hitherto been discovered in the Kansas chalk, a number of which are in the University museum. The present specimen appears to belong to a species, and possibly to a genus hitherto unknown. The Plesiosaurs were a giant of large extinct aquatic reptiles, whose remains occur only in the Triassic and cretaceous rocks. The present specimen, judging from its nearest known allies, is that of a reptile not less than thirty, and probably nearly forty feet in length, with a comparatively small head and a large slender neck, twenty or more feet in length, a large thickset body with webbed flippers or paddles, and a short rudder-like tail. Its food consists of fishes, and it inhabit the shallower regions of the oceans
Foot Bail.
Those students interested in football held a meeting at the end of the fourth hour Wednesday. Howard Peairs was elected captain. It was decided to make an organization of twenty-five members so that two elevens might be formed. The number was largely made up at the meeting. It was also decided to procure suits for the elevens. The men will practice at least three times a week and some every afternoon. A practice game with the Indians will soon be arranged for. The eleven will in all probability go to Baker in a few weeks and if good practice is kept up the Bakerites may look out.
The match game of tennis last Thursday between the Phi Psi and Betas resulted in favor of the former by the score of, 6-3; 6-2; 1-6; 8-6. Sherman and Armstrong played for the Phi Psis and Whitman and McKinnon for the Betas. The first sets were won easily by the Phi Psi, but the next two were closely contested and many excellent plays were made.
The University nine will play against the nine from Haskell Institute tomorrow Oct. 18th on the K.S.U. grounds. Admission of ten cents will be charged. Let everybody turn out. This promises to be a close and interesting game.
The Psi Psi tennis team scored a victory last week over the Sigma Chi team.

Attempt after attempt has been made, and courageous gentlemen of means have appeared from time to time magnificent in swallow tails of gray, olive, samon, buff or violet. But it was no go. After a few spasm, elie efforts mankind lapped again into the waiters' costume. One more attempt, emanating from Paris this time, will be made the coming season to introduce the colored dress coat for men. Maybe it will be successful at last.
Farm products went up with a rush when they did start. They had been depressed long enough, heaven knows.

The Review appeared this week with a very creditable issue on the whole. The literary department was very good having many interesting articles. The month a department that encroaches upon the weekly paper, had a few little sarcastic flings in it that would be a disgrace to any paper. Honorable rivalry is all right but when it comes to saying mean little things out of pure malice without even the recommendation of wit or good sense, it is going a little too far. If the Month must be let it be clean.

The gentlemen of Sigma Nu fraternity, last Friday evening gave their lady friends quite a delightful party in their pleasant rooms in the Eldridge House block. Games and amusement were indulged in until 11 o'clock, when a modest lunch was spread. Then the pleasant rooms were again enlivened by the merry dancers and the Mandolin Club. Time was beginning to number again the "wee small" hours when the company broke up. Though an informal affair all declared a pleasant time.
The New Dictionary.
The answer of the publishers of Webster's UnabridgedDictionary to the attempt of pirates to steal their thunder by issuing cheap phototype reproductions of the antiquated edition of 1847, is the publication of a new and completely re-edited and enlarged edition of the authentic Unabridged, which as a distinguishing title bears the name of International.
The publishers have expended in the last ten years over $300,000 in the preparation of this new book before issuing the first copy, and the improvements of the various editions since that of 1847 have cost over three-fourths of a million of dollars for editing, illustrating, typesetting and electrotyping alone.
This new dictionary is the best book of its kind in the English language. It unlocks mysteries, resolves doubts, and decides disputes. The possession of it and the habit of consulting it will tend to promote knowledge, literary taste, and social refinement. For every family, the members of which have mastered the art of reading, the purchase of Webster's International Dictionary will prove a profitable investment, and the more they advance in knowledge and cultivation the more they will appreciate its aid and worth.

Modern Language Club.
About twenty-five students must Friday afternoon in the German recitation room, and together with Professors Carruth and Canfield formed a club to be known as the Modern Language Club. Effie J. Scott was elected president; Nannie Pugh, vice president; Belle Spencer, secretary, and R. D. O'Leary assistant secretary and treasurer. The club will meet every Friday afternoon from 4 to 6 o'clock in "Old Orophilian Hall." The plan at present is to have one meeting devoted exclusively to German and the next meeting devoted to French. Some work may also be done in Spanish and other modern languages if enough students are interested in them. The requisites for membership are first, that students be far enough advanced in German and French to be able to take an active part; second, that students, in the meetings of the club, become for the time being either German or Frenchmen, as the case requires, for all the business, conversation and exercises will be carried on in either German or French. The programs will consist of declamations, short essays, discussions, scenes rendered from dramatic works, readings, songs, story telling etc. The club may also present some short German and French plays during the winter. Prof. and Mrs. Carruth, Prof Canfield, Prof. Stevens and other members of the faculty will take active part in the work and the club starts out with the prospect of accomplishing much good and being a source of pleasure as well. The first program will be given this afternoon when German will be the native tongue. The program will be found in another column. Every body interested is invited to attend.

LET us have a University ball for the benefit of the Athletics. The one last year netted a good sum and was a very pleasant affair. Such an occasion brings all the different social elements of the University together and promotes good feeling and shows all that there are a good many pretty nice students in the University. On with the dance.
PROF. PENNY's plan for procuring a grand pipe organ for the chapel is a worthy one. It should not be forgotten however,that there are other things being worked for in K. S. U. which are of more importance,and demand more immediate attention. There is no telling how long Col. McCook's magnificent offer to duplicate dollar for dollar all money raised for the Athletic interests will remain good. While we have it,every means should be taken to swell this fund. If money can be raised for both the organ and Athlets,so much the better,but the Athletics' interests should not be sacrificed.
It is the aim of the Courier to report thoroughly the news of each week. We wish to be a representative paper in every respect. If you know of any interesting facts about students, visitors, alumni etc., write them out and hand them to us. If you see something in the management or misuunagement of University affairs, write out your views and send them to us, or point out to any of the editors the matter which you think requires attention and they will see that it is looked into. We wish to publish reports of the doings of all the societies and clubs. In short, as there is but one weekly, we wish to represent as fairly as possible the whole student body and the institution to which we owe our allegiance.
The action of Chancellor Snow and the committee of the regents in ordering the rebuilding of the foundation recently put in under the main building, will be commended by every one, with the possible exception of the contractor, a gentleman from Topeka. The expense of taking the foundation out and putting the new one in will be over six thousand dollars. It will be a good though hard lesson to contractors who think they can make something off of state institutions by slighting their work. To show the gross carelessness, the foundation was in many places put down to a thin layer of rock only about four to six inches above solid rock. A very poor quality of rock was also used, and the walls, in many places, were "deaconed" as they call it in the east, that is some good stone put on the out side and a lot of poor truck put on the inside. It is also said that a prominent architect of this city looked over the foundation and testified that it was a thorough and good job.
OWING to the fact that the law, music and art departments have been removed to North College, and that the classes in the main building recite all the way from 9 to 6 o'clock, a large number of students cannot secure the Courier in person at the end of the fourth hour on Fridays. If those wishing to take the Courier will see or drop a line to one of the business managers and have their names put on the list of subscribers, the Courier will be sent to them each week. Every student should take the Courier and keep posted about University affairs.
It should be a matter of regret to all that any unpleasantness should have occurred in the last K. S. U. Haskell Institute ball game. The facts of the case are these. There was no intentional unfairness in the game but the first umpire made some very bad decisions, which were, however, about equally divided between both teams. The Indians became dissatisfied and Arthur Canfield went in to umpire. He made a decisions letting a K. S. U. player to first base on four balls when the Indians maintained that it ought to have been three strikes. Now every one knows that Canfield is a competent and perfectly fair umpire and that about that point there was no cause for complaint. But the Indians owing to the previous decision had gotten the idea that they were being treated unfairly and so withdrew. It is unfortunate that it happened for we should have none but the most pleasant relations with Haskell.
How is this for class spirit? The Sophomores at the University of the Pacific, adopted canes. In a short time they found that they held but a minority of the canes, the Freshmen holding the rest. The Sophomores left a cane in the library as bait, and stationed men to guard it. A Junior flung it out of the window, where it was captured by the Freshmen. That night the Junior found himself stuck unceremoniously head first in a water trough. The next night the Freshmen and Juniors took two Sophomores out of bed and gave them a cold bath. Some more unpleasantness was indulged in. The faculty now took a hand and decided that a cash restitution be made for all property destroyed. The Freshmen refused to settle, saying that they had destroyed no property, that the canes did not come under the resolutions of the faculty. The faculty then suspended the Freshman class for thirty days. The other classes got mad at this and decided to leave the institution if the Freshmen were not reinstated. The faculty, to use an expression of Mr. Jerry Cruncher's quickly "flopped" and all is now serene and peaceful. It might be a good thing for class spirit in K. S. U., if the Sophomores were to come out in mortar board hats, whatever the effebt might be on the hats. The Sophs. of the University of Pacific wear both hats and canes, that is when they have them convenient.
One of most the important features of modern University learning is the rapid increasing use of the "Library system of education." The advantages of this method are many and we will simply cite two or three of them in passing.
READING.
First, time spent in the library and in constant research, familiarizes one with books and authors, which is in itself an education that we cannot afford to lose. It is surprising how this method of study facilitates learning and especially where the student is following a special line of work. By constantly handling different volumes we may not learn that such and such a passage occurs in such and such a book, still, we may know about how an author would treat a given subject and in about what way, and thus we classify, unintentially perhaps, but none the less true, the wisdom of scholars.
In the second place, work of this kind always broadens the mind and intellect of the one who follows it. The old way of working was for students to take one text book and study it to the exclusion of any other authority upon the same subject. That time is passed to a great extent and now by consulting many standard writers the student is able to deduct his own conclusions which are all the more valuable for being his own.
This mode of individual research has been characterized by one of our professors as the suggestive method of instruction, meaning that the instructor suggests topics for work and quotes authorities which the student may consult at his pleasure.
Perhaps something should be said of those students who cannot, because of being occupied by such studies as drawing, languages, mathematics, etc., take time for systematic reading. Of course there are many of this class and to these we would call particular attention to the general reading room. Every student in the University should find time to spend at least a half an hour a day here among the very best magazines and newspapers in the country. It is the duty of every one to keep informed upon what is going on in the world out side of the narrow limits of ordinary school life. Many college men leave school after four years of study, and find that they are as ignorant of the great national and political affairs of the day as they were when they went into school as mere boys. This fact explains why a college man is looked upon as impractable and dreamy.
To those students merely reading for pleasure we would suggest that no more enjoyable half-hour can be spent than at a table in the library. Although incidental and collateral reading in not as beneficial as sys tematic reading yet it is useful at least and should be encouraged. We urge upon all the importance of the matter and hope that every one will take advantage of the opportunity which the University offers for work in this direction.

The Foundation.
The building committee of the Regents, consisting of Chancellor Snow, C. S. Gleed and W.C. Spangler, held a meeting at the Eldridge House last Friday night. It was decided to have the foundation put under the northwest wing of the main building this summer, rebuilt. The foundation was originally built upon the first ledge of rock, which is only about two feet thick. The building settled as could have been expected and last spring the contract was let to have the foundation put down to solid rock. This was supposed to have been done, the state expending over $6,000 this summer for work on the northwest wing. It now turns out that the foundation was only built down to another thin ledge of rock, a few inches above the solid rock and consequently the work will have to be done over. Besides not going down to the final ledge, a poor quality of rock was used. Such carelessness in the building of a foundation for a five story stone building of the size of the main building seems to be of the grossess and most flagrant kind and especially so after one experience in the metter. The work on the rebuilding of the foundation was begun last Monday and will be pushed as rapidly as possible. It is an exceedingly difficult task to keep the building from settling considerably while the work is being done.

Science Club.
The Science Club was particularly favored last Friday night by a talk from Professor Williston, the first that he has given in Lawrence. His subject was "The new Plesiosaur," and the importance of its discovery. The Professor was very enthusiastic over the "find," and before he closed he showed that he had a right to be. To show the relation of the new specimen to others of the same ephoc, a short account of the principal groups of the age of reptiles, the turtles, the pterodactyls, the dinosaurs, the mosasaurs, and the plesiosaurs; specimens of all these are in our museum. The collection is particularly rich in mosasaurs which were sea reptiles twenty to fifty feet long with paddles instead of feet, and remarkable for possessing the jointed jaw bone of which a survival exists in the modern snake, a structure which a gifted young lady last year described as being adapted "to assist large animals passing down its throat." The two halves of the lower jaw could be moved forward separately, the recurved teeth inserted. and, on account of the loose connection of the head bones, animals of almost any size could be swallowed. A healthy mosasam with a good appetite would swallow an ox whole without thinking much of it. The plesiosaurs are much more rare. A single specimen of the gums to which this belongs was described some thirty years ago but it consisted only of the tail and body. Our specimen begins where that left off. It consists of the head and neck beautifully preserved; it probably an entirely new species and has not been named. The specimen is worth at least $500 now and probably much more.
Prof. Stevens followed this paper with an account of the potato blight illustrated with colored charts prepared by himself. Among other interesting facts brought out it was explained that the fungus on the leaves was connected by mycelia with the tubes through the stem of the plant, and in this way it was perpetuated.
Various scientific notes were presented by the members and discussed, the talk, as usual in the Science Club, drifting into hypnotism. Some tall stories were told which the narrators were willing to swear to, but which were a little too much for the credulity of the new members. They should not be discouraged, however, for after a student has been a member of the Science Club for some time he can believe anything.
E. E. Slosson read an extract from a letter from W. S. Franklin, now in Berlin, in which he thanked the club for a couple of "Balderkers" given him last spring.
The committee on entertainments of the guests of the Kansas Academy of Science reported that their plans were enlarging and that the Science Club would "do itself proud." It is proposed to give a
public exhibition in the chapel in which there will be about 150 stereoptican and microscopic pictures thrown on the wall.
Sayre's Essentials of Pharmacy.
Sayre's Essentials of Pharmacy. The Pharmacy students have hitherto been obliged to go up and down the hill, carrying under their arms books that rival Webster's Unabridged, and to endure the contemptuous smiles and sarcastic remarks of the collegiate students who delight in being burdened with nothing heavier than a note book.
Now, however, the "Pharmics" move with quicker step, holding in their hands little blue books stamped 'Sayre's Essential of Pharmacy.' It must not be understood by this title that Prof. Sayre considers Pennington, or the Pnarmacopica "unessential." On the contrary, his hand book is based upon them, and is to be used simply as a subponent, not as a substitute. The book is one of the Saunder's series of Question Compends, and is arranged in alternate questions and answers. In the first part, the instruments used in pharmacy are described, microscopes, balances, weights and measures, etc. This is followed by a section devoted to the pharmaceutical processes from disseccion and comminution to sublimation and calcination. The rest of the pages are devoted to the description of the drugs themselves and the preparation of them. The arrangement of the handbook makes it equally suited for ready reference or class room work.

The Police Gazette has been placed on file in the reading room of the law department. This is a very feeble attempt at a joke on the law department. Even if this were so it would be much better unsaid. Such reports circulating over the state certainly do not give precedence to the school. Think of it. The Police lice Gazette having a place in the newspaper bureau! It sounds well indeed! However, it is not true. K. S. U. does not deal that sort of material.
AMUSEMENTS. BARRY AND FAY.
Those happily successful comedians, Barry and Fay, having made a run of 175 nights in New York City last season, are now making a tour of the principle cities of the country and will appear at the opera house in this city on next Saturday, Oct. 25th, in their laughter raising comedy "McKinnan's Flirtations," a play that was written for the express purpose of making people laugh. Barry and Fay are among the most popular stars on the American stage, and as delineators of the true Irish American character they have no equal. The
company with the comedians is the same that supported them during their New York run and is said to be one of the strongest and the very largest comedy company on the road, and includes a quartette of pretty girls who will introduce novel specialties.

To Millionaires.
Smiths, Joneses and Jenkinses endow colleges and hospitals to be called after them and immortalize their own distinguished names. But there is one branch of philantkropy that has apparently scarcely occurred to them, though it is worth all the rest together. It is the providing of pretty and comfortable suburban homes for working people, that too, not as a charity, but as a solid business investment.
No self respecting man or woman will accept a charity, and even the best things have no value in a man's eyes if they come too easily. But let us say a man has a couple of millions to help mankind with. Put it on a strictly business basis. Say he will be satisfied with a net return of 5 per cent. on his money. Let him buy a tract of land within forty minutes by rail of the business portion of some great city.
If there is no railroad to the tract so much the better. He can build one thither which he can govern by his own rules, the first of which shall be that the fare shall be as low as it can possibly be to pay the road's expenses and leave a small profit. Indeed, as has already been done in England, the railroad fare might be included in the workingman's rent. Then let our millionaire erect on the plot of ground after it has been thoroughly drained, planted with shade trees, etc., dozens of pretty, comfortable three, four, five and six room cottages furnished with modern conveniences. A plot of ground shall be left with each large enough for a flower and vegetable garden. There must be adjacent to the village a public park and a public hall and club house. Then let him cause it to be known that the village is here strictly as a business investment, waiting for respectable American citizens to make it their home. They can rent the houses on the 4 or 5 per cent. basis, or they can buy them if they wish for a price that will yet return a small profit to the owner, for that idea must never be lost sight of. Otherwise the investment becomes a charity, and the best class of working people will shum it as they do a charity hospital.
A village built on the line here suggested would be filled in less than no time with the families of teachers, newspaper people, clerks, business men and respectable mechanics. A society as refined, as cultured, as happy and handsome as any on earth would soon spring up in this model village. Every family would be respected and self respecting, and would belong to the 400. What millionaire will act on the suggestion, and give us Jenkinshurst or Browne by the Sea.
A priest in St. Louis has inaugurated a temperance crusade that is unique. Every man in his congregation will be watched strictly in future, and those who are in the habit of frequenting drinking saloons will be reported to the pastor. He will give their names to a committee of sixty of the leading ladies of the church. These women will see that the drunkards are completely ostracized socially by the congregation, and it is needless to say they will take pleasure in their task. Nobody will recognize the tippers in company or elsewhere, and the young men will not even be allowed to buy ice cream for their best girls. This is heroic treatment indeed. But a Protestant minister who should attempt such a remedy would not be allowed to hold his pastorate a month, such is the difference in the authority of the priestly office in the Roman Catholic and Protestant churches.

Some colored hoodlums pitched onto Lute Thrasher at the ball grounds last Saturday and gave him an ugly cut on the forehead. Simmons went in to stop the scrap and two of the colored boys pitched onto him with ball bats and hurt him severely about the shoulders and arms. The big colored boys seem to think they have a right to the ball grounds and they resent any intrusion from the University boys. If the city authorities do not keep these colored hoodlums off, there promises to be a lively row one of these days.

A BOOK TO BUY.—Webster's International Dictionary. This new book is the authentic "Unabridged" thoroughly revised and enlarged under the supervision of Noah Porter, D. D., L. L. D., of Yale University. Editorial work on the revision has been in active progress for over ten years, and more than a hundred paid literary workers have been engaged upon it. The sum expended in its preparation before the first copy was printed exceeded $300,000. This work, well used in a family, will be of more value to the members thereof than many times its cost laid up in money.
An Organ for University Hall.
Prof. Penny is organizing a big scheme to raise money for a grand $5,000 pipe organ for the chapel—the organ to be built by the people of Lawrence, the students and the Alumni. The undertaking is a big one but Prof. Penny is working hard and is very enthusiastic. An executive committee of five ladies from each of seven churches, the Alumni, and each of the University classes has been appointed. Each member of the committee is responsible for obtaining five pipe collectors all to be young ladies. This will make a committee of pipe collectors to consist of at least 800 persons. Each person contributing some salable article valued at 5 cents and upwards for the "Grand Kermiss Fair" to be held the week before Christmas,and paying one dollar for an admission ticket to six concerts and entertainments to be given by the Glee Club and musical and dramatic talent of the city and University, becomes a purchaser of a pipe in the new organ. The young lady pipe collectors will canvas each person and sell them pipes. Each person buying a pipe will have his name engraved on a block of polished wood which will be inlaid on the base of the organ. By the sale of pipes, proceeds from the Kermiss Fair and entertainments. Prof. Penny hopes to raise $5,000.
The names of the members of the ex-committee and further particulars will be published next week.
There is $25 in the hands of the treasurer of the Oratorical Association which is due the stock holders and will be paid as soon as the matter can be arranged with the former treasurer. Why not give this to the Athletic Association or for Prof. Penny's organ?
O. II. Holmes lectured at Cedar Junction last Friday night. He carried his audience with him.

SUCCRIBE for the COURIER and get the Universety news each week. It will be hard for you to keep posted about what is taking place if you do not.
THE project for a University ball is receiving a great deal of favorable comment. If it be decided to give one just before the Thanksgiving vacation let the various commissitie be appointed at once and the affair be made one that will be a credit. If managed rightly, it will be an exceedingly pleasant occasion and also net a nice sum for the athletic interests.
The sidewalk up Admas street is in a dangerous condition and should be fixed before winter sets in. If allowed to remain as it is now a very bad accident is liable to occur at almost any time. There surely should be a good approach to the University from this direction. It is sometimes hard enough to climb the hill anyhow without having to look on all the time for loose boards and dangerous places.
SINCE a Glee Club has been organized why should we not have a mandolin, guitar and banjo club? If entertainments are to be given for the University by the Glee Club, they could be made much more interesting by the introduction of some good mandolin and guitar music. In fact no music takes better at the various Univerity gatherings. Let some player make a start at organization and we have no doubt but that a good club would result. Who will have enough enthusiasm for the University to make the attempt?
It should be a matter or congratulation to all that the University has at last $ ^{a} $ a well organized Glee Club. It is something of which we have all felt the need. Prof.Penny deserves the thanks of the studetus for his work in organizing the club and under his efficient management the club will be an honor to the University. We cannot expect too much from it at the start, but we can expect that its influence will be felt more and more. Not only will the chapel singing and consequently the exercises become more interesting, but the club will advertise the University in a manner that will be very beneficial. A well organized Glee Club is a necessary part of every eastern college and we shall expect to derive the same good result from ours. Three cheers for the Glee Club!
The presence of colored hood-lums on the ball grounds has got to be stopped. The University Athletic Association has a lease on the grounds and these fellows have no right on them, yet in spite of all this it is almost impossible for any small number of sutidents to use the grounds without having it made very disagreeable if not altogether impossible to proceed with games of any kind. A great many times students have left the grounds rather than have the fuss with the
hoodlums which they knew would be inevitable. Not only this, but if there is any match game being played these loud mouthed hoodlums make themselves so obnoxious that decent people do not like to attend. The University students do not wish to have any trouble with these fellows but if the city authorities do not see that sufficient police protection is afforded for the ball grounds, trouble is apt to ensue at any time. A town and gown feud if once started would be both deplorable and fought with dangerous consequences. A little prompt action on the part of the city authorities in connection with the University authorities will put a stop to this nusance at once. We hope for the good of all concerned that it will be done.

The following able editorial from the Record about lectures, is too good not to be more generally circulated. It fits the lecture that was delivered in town last week entitled "Pluck" to a T. The editorial is entitled "Bosh" and is as follows:
"The unquestioned success of some men upon the lecture platform gives a herd of mediocres a pretext and an opening to rush over the country and recite platitudes from school books. One of these literary trumps will take "Sand" as a title and subject, and declaim upon the immense value of "sand" in the human composition. Hannibal had sand when he crossed the Alps, and an eloquent culogy upon the great Carthagenian follows. Napoleon was blessed with a surplus of sand when he crossed the dittio and a ditto ditto is pronounced upon the "Little Corporal." The next adore who steps into the lecture arena is heralded as the champion of "Brains." He lauds Hannibal and Napoleon et sequentes as brim full of Brain and kindles and flings over the platform a hurid shower of phosphorescent sparks as offerings to their memories. Then comes to the same long suffering public a reminiscent pilgrim who insists that "Go" is the watchword of all great achievements. It was "Go" with Hannibal, "Go" with Na. polese and the same old manikins are wheeled into the platform and move their creaky joints, and wag their wooden beads, and are shoved back into the lecturer's property room to shelter rat's nests and colwbews until the next lecture season. Lessons which a Sunday school teacher who understands his business can better illustrate and enforce, are gravely and sol emly taught to people who can prompt and correct the pompous peripatetic better than his indiscontents "ponies." Such men have a trick of style borrowed from some real master of oratory, some points of pose practiced before a mirror wherewith to illuminate a patchwork o stilted rhetoric, of anteducedvian joke and goody-goody sentiment. And so this mangle, people who find no excelence in a really original sermon o
"When George Kennan comes to tel us of Siberia, when Stanley speaks or Africa, when our own Dyche talks of his intrepid search for specimens in British Columbia, the people attend, learn and are profiled, but when the Reverend or Professor Twiddle-Twaddle comes to eak out a reinforcement of his slender salary of a few ten thousand, with a running commentary on historic modies, who are made to illustrate some home-made characteristic to the time and tune of a monosyllabic catch-word, it is in order for some bright satirist to punctate the sham by a lecture on "Bosh," and gather his lay figures from these tramp tinkers who fit the great shades of history upon the crazy frame-work of their fancy, and train them to pose in attitudes as foreign to their characters, as the whole performance is to good taste or true intelligence."

MODERN LANGUAGE CLUB.
The first meeting of the club was held last Friday afternoon from 4 to 6 with about forty members present. The program was, "German as she is spoke—in K. S. U." Miss Pugh presided over the meeting in a highly pleasing and creditable manner. Copies of "Die Wacht am Rhine were distributed to the members, who proceeded to sing this beautiful German song. R. R. Whitman recited a humorous little poem from the "Fliegende Blatter" entitled, "Die Verdriesliche." C. M. Sherer read a short essay on Goethe. Prof. Carruth sang a very pretty little German song. R. D. O'Leary and Henry Fiegenbaum live a short scene from William Tell, which was well received. E. E. Soderstrom told one of Grimm's stories. The meeting was not a very boisterous one as the conversation was carried on entirely in German. The next meeting of the club will be held next Friday afternoon from 4 to 6. A French program will be given.
K. S. U. GLEE CLUB.
A short time ago a call was issued for volunteers for a Glee Club and twenty boys responded. This number has been increased to nearly forty. A permanent organization has been effected, with Prof. Penny, director, C. H. Sears, president and G. O. Virtue business manager. The club meets for practice every Thursday evening.
The object of the Glee Club is to advance the social relations of the students,to advertise the University and to build up the singing at chapel exercises and other University gatherings. The requirements for entrance are a fair voice and a true musical ear. The director tests all the applicants as to their ability to join the club. The director also selects the music to be used by the club,and selects the members who are to take part in the concerts and entertainments which the Glee Club will give.
The work so far has been drill upon interpretations of college songs and practice upon glees. Besides, those who have attended chapel exercises will know that the Glee Club has a strong representation there regularly.
The seminary of Historical and political Science met Friday, Oct. 24, in room No.15, The room was crowled with students and visitors from the city. The seminary is constantly gaining in power and influence, and in its hold upon the students.
SEMINARY OF SCIENCE.
The program of the afternoon was opened by Mr. H. S. Hadley, who presented a paper on "The Origin of the Township and its transfer to America. He traced the township from the German tribes of Central Europe, where it originated, across the channel into England; through the township and mischief of England and across the
water to the township of the New England States, where was laid the foundation of American freedom.
The second paper, by Mr. Dyche was on "The Effect of the Township System in the United States." He said that where the township, with its town meeting, was the basis of local administration, officials were careful in the performance of their duties; citizens were convertant with local government and its needs; politics and local affairs were separated, and the working of the school system came under the direct inspection of all the people.
The third and last paper was read by Mr. Charles F. Scott of Iola, on the subject, "The Shelby Expedition." Mr. Scott told in a graphic manner, the story of the bold escapades and thrilling adventures of these confederate soldiers, who had never learned the meaning of the word surrender.
This is a page in our American history to which allusion is seldom made. Every one present was grateful to Mr. Scott for so delightfully presenting the subject to the seminary. Those who did not hear the paper will do well to get Saturday's Journal, where it will be published in full, and read it.
The seminary adjourned to meet Oct. 31, when Judge Emery will speak on "The Deep Water problem."
PHILILOGICAL CLUB.
The club had quite an interesting meeting. Prof. Dunlap read a paper upon the study of early English or Anglo Saxon.
Prof Carruth gave some notes upon Folk-Lore which excited some interesting and amusing remarks and then came the hypoloy,which consisted of discussions of forms of words given by different members of the class.
Officers for the coming year were elected. Drof. Hopkins, president, Dr. Wilcox secretary, and J.D. Bowersock treasurer. The names of several desiring to become members of the club were proposed and Mrs. Prof. Carruth, Mrs. Prof Hopkins and Mrs. Dr. Wilcox were voted in. The meeting then adjourned to meet at the regular time and place.

AMUSEMENTS.
ALEXANDER SALVINI.
In the repertoire of romantic plays which Mr. Salvini presents, there are few opportunities for the display of that tremendous dramatic and tragic force which is so striking a characteristic of the elder Salvini. The young man's best chance for strong dramatic work is in "Don Caesar" in his scenes with Maritana and the king.
The supporting company is a strong one. It comprises Belle Archer, who played "Hazel Kirke" for two seasons with the Madison Square company and who was the leading lady at the Lyceum theater, New York, during the early engagements of E. H. Sothern, and who was also leading lady with J. M. Hill's company; Augusta De Forrest, who has long been identified with legitimate companies, including that of Edwin Booth, John McCullough; Maud Dixon of Shook, Collier's Union Square company; Herbert Archer of the Madison Square and Lyceum Theater companies; Lucius Henderson, leading juvenile in the supporting company of the elder Salvini; Owen Eaton of Wilson Barrett's company; Elmer Delamater, George Johnson, Ben Johnson, Edmund Day, Frank Wise and Antonio Masini of the company lately supporting the elder Salvini.
