As soon as you leave the street car in Kansas City you will want a cigar. See Alex. Furgeon, 6 West 9th street. Poc ketCutlery has advanced, but anything in this line now in stock will be sold at old prices at Smith's News Depot. The Sigma Chis gave a very enjoyable Hallowe'een party at the residence of Hon. J. D. Bowersock last Friday evening. There is no better place in Kansas City to spend a leisure hour than the Mirror Billiard hall, 607 Main street upstairs. Walking Canes. Ten cents buys a good dude cane, but $1 to $1.50 buys one good enough for an exquisite young man, at Smith's News Depot. The meetings of the Academy of Science are largely attended and are attracting much attention. The Science club is interesting the members in fine style. Alex. Furgeon has one of the finest lines of cigars, cigarettes and tobacco to be found in Kansas City. The place is No. 6 west 9th street, close to the Junction. Orme & Engle still have some of those Parisian hats and bonnets left, and if you, young ladies of the University, have not already secured one of them, it would be well for you to attend to the matter at once. A word to the wise is sufficient. The Princeton and Columbia foot ball teams played their first game of the season on the Berkeley oval, New York, last Tuesday. There were over ten thousand spectators present. The match resulted in a score of eighty-four to nothing (84-0) in favor of Princeton: Princeton played its best team, which will undoubtedly play against Yale on Thanksgiving day. The Betas gave their annual "turkey pullin" last Friday night. The occasion proved a very pleasant one and was fully enjoyed by all present. An elegant banquet was served by Weidemann during the course of the evening. The souvenirs of the occasion were some very handsome menu cards etched by Mr. Ed Stimpson. The following were present: Misses Towne, Blaker, Kimball, Manley, Riggs, Springer, Franklin, Lockwood, Humphrey, Newsome, Haskell, Simpson, Grubb,Van Hoesen, Williamson and Henshaw; Messrs. Douglas, Shepherd, Adams, Lutz, Barnes, Fullerton, Malcolm, McKinnon, Springer, Simpson, Melvin, Pickering, Withington, Stimpson, Brown, Howard Peairs and Merrill. The interest in foot ball is increasing. The Glee Club met Tuesday night for practice. Theo. H. Scheffer attended a Hallowe'en party in the country. E. W. Palmer spent last Sunday with friends in the country. W. M. Curry visited his home in Nortonville the first part of this week. D. E. Babbitt went home Tuesday to help swell the republican victory. Some of the students are living abundantly off of apples since all Hallowe'en night. R. W.Houk, of the law class of '90, has permenly located in Galveston, Texas. B. Glick has the largest stock of law books in the west, 535 Main street, Kansas City. The Sophomore class is without doubt the best class in school both physically and mentally. A number of the law boys attended the Business College congress" Friday, Oct. 31st. Mr. F. A. Finicle, of the Senior class has been making republican speeches throughout the county. Clarence Hall who has been sick for so long a time is now able to be about. He is still very weak however. A fine assortment of imported cigars at Alex. Furgeon's, No 6 West 9th street, Kansas City, Mo. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, NOV. 7, 1890. Hallowe'en passed off very quietly. A few old sidewalks were torn up and a few horse blocks turned oxer was the extent of the fun. I. H. Lookabaugh is the new Courier correspondent from the Law school. The Courier will contain full legal reports hereafter. Prof. Bailey and Prof. Sayre excused all classes to-day and yesterday that they might attend the sessions of the academy of science, The library of the Law department has received a very valuable addition recently, viz: the last fifty-seven volumes of the United States reports. W. M. Curry was at his home from Saturday to Tuesday. Like the president of the United States, he went home to vote the republican ticket. The Kent club through the efforts of a committee on "newspapers and periodicals," appointed for the purpose has secured about $40 worth of newspapers and periodicals for the coming year, free of charge, and at their last meeting levied an assessment of 50 cents upon each member for the purpose of securing others that they cannot secure as a gratuity. Miss Eleanor Humphrey received a visit from her mother last Tuesday Mr. J. T. Wever visited his parents the first part of the week. A large body of students attended the representation of Adonis on Wednesday evening. Mr. Newell W. Whitside, of Leavenworth, visited his son John the first part of the week. The Phi Gamma Delta Troubadours sernaded their lady friends the latter part of last week. It is about time to begin to bet hats, oyster, candy and candidates for the different fraternities. The rock which is now being put into the foundation is of the best quality. Work is progressing rapidly. The Freshman Geometry class have finished the text book and are now in the agonies of an examination. The High School nine defeated a picked nine of University students last Saturday morning by the score of I2 to 8. The work on the foundation is progressing rapidly. The determination seems to be to go down until the pick ax melts. S. D. Bishop, class '88, democrat was elected attorney of Douglas county over Dr. Summerfield by about fifty majority. Hon. Thos. F.Doran, class of '88, assistant internal revenue collector at Topeka, has been making political speeches in Morris county the past week. H. C. Gardner and A. L. Morgan, old K. S. U. boys, walked up from Kansas City Saturday for the exercise. It is needless to say they rode back. If nine innings had been played in the last Saturday's game, the score would have stood about eighty to twenty in favor of the Sophomores. If? A number of the students will take part in the "Athor's Carnival" to be given by the ladies of the Episcopal church the night before Thanksgiving. The State Academy of Science, now in session at the University, is attracting a large number of visitors. A large number of professors presented papers. Prof. Blake displayed from the Democratic party headquarters the returns of the election as they came in Tuosday night by the aid of a stereoptican. He was assisted by Kellogg, Ward, Noble, Moody and Kuncle. A large number of students watched the result and much enthusiasm was shown when the sentence "Mr. Quiz to-morrow" appeared. All Hallowe'en and the election passed off quietly. Will Overton spent Hallowe'en at his home in Kansas City. Larkin Smith attended the Sigma Chi party last Friday night. Smith expects to enter school the second term. A large number of studento heard Alexander Salvini in Don Caesar de Bazan at the opera house last Saturday evening. Hon, Thos. F. Dorcan,'88 made i two week's campaign for the Republlican party in Morris, Osage and Dickinson counties. The Alliance had large majorities in these counties. Election returns excited much comment in the halls last Wednesday. Some enterprising students started a pool on the favorite candidates but we do not know what was the financial result. The Athletic Association met at Prof. Canfield's room last Wednesday evening. Nothing very important was accomplished, the evening being mostly spent in the discussion of sites for the new athletic field. Sherman Harvey, '88, candidate for clerk of the district court of Douglas county on the republicau party, was defeated by a good sized majority. Harvey received the support of the University people. E. L. Ackley, of the law firm of Wilmouth & Ackley, Concordia, visited his many friends at the University the first part of the week. Wilmouth is not married yet and the firm is prospering in every way. Ackley is one of the most popular fellows that ever attended the University. No. 9. It has been the custom of the science club to give each year a free public entertainment. This year it will consist of a stereoptical exhibition of microscopic objects and photographic slides. A number of these have been prepared expressly for this occasion and visiting members of the Academy of Science have been requested to bring with them their choice mounts for exhibition. Besides these, the committee have chosen a few slides from the sets used in lectures in the zoology, entomology, physics, pharmacy and anatomy, and some from miscellaneous lectures. In fact it will be a dozen lectures rolled into one. Prof. Blake will run the lantern and Prof. Williston will "call off." The Science club boys have been to considerable trouble and expense in getting up the exhibition and it is expected that University and city people will show their appreciation by a large audience. The entertainment will be held in the chapel at eight to-night. Prof. Hopkins understands the game of foot-ball exceedingly well and would be a good man to referee some of the games. Mrs. Carruth was unable to be at the University last Monday. Her classes were heard by Prof. Carruth and Prof. Canfield. The University Glee club has adopted the mortar-board hat and it is said they are immensely becoming to the sixteen sweet singers. Lawrence Record. The Athletic association is looking around for material for its annual dramatic entertainment to be given some time during the latter part of the winter. W. C. Moll, a student of two years ago, now teaching school in Central Kansas spent Saturday and Sunday in town. Moll will re-enter school next year. All students should attend the Science club entertainment to be given this evening in the chapel. An extremely interesting and instructive program will be presented. Washburn has not accepted K, S. U.'s challenge for a foot ball game. We gather from the Reporter that the students of Washburn will probably not interest themselves in foot ball for some years yet. They will probably give all their attention to oratory. Students passing Dr. Wilcox's new house last Saturday morning were surprised to see a glaring original package sign hanging in a prominent place on the front side of the house. Dr. Wilcox will still continue his connection with the University, however. Baker has decided to withdraw its acceptance of the challenge for a tennis match with K. S. U. Circumstances have arisen not known at the time which makes it impossible for them to meet us, at least until some distant period. Baker has evidently heard that K. S. U. plays tennis.

BUSINE MANAGERS: BUSINESS MANAGERS: H. E. COPPER, | C. A. PEABODY, H. E. COTTEN Enter here at the post office at Lawrence, Kansas, as second class matter. The program and notice of the Academy of Science which should have been published in last week's issue was by an unavoidable mistake omitted. We are extremely sorry that it should have so happened. THERE is some complaint that since the Glee club has been singing in the chapel that the body of students do not participate in the singing as much as formerly. If this is the case would it not be better to let the Glee club occupy seats among the students? Their influence would then be felt just the same but individual exertion would not then cease but would then be spurred on. Singing in which all shall participate is far more inspiring and beneficial than by choir alue. We publish in another column under the head of "Views" the opinion of one of our students in regard to the Athletic Association. We shall not attempt to discuss in this issue the justice of the grounds for complaint but those interested can be thinking about it and next week we shall be glad to print any articles in reply or anything along this line of thought. The "Views" column is open for any honest expressions of thought which will not be detrimental to the University, and we shall be glad if all will avail themselves of the chance to express their opinions on University matters. If you have any thing to say let us hear of it. Don't be bashful. THE Glee club is improving right along and Prof. Penny assures us that in a short time it will be a very excellent organization. A chance will be given the students to hear the club sing at the Science club entertainment in the chapel this evening. It is the intention of the Glee club to make a short tour of the neighborhood during the Christmas vacation, the proceeds to go for the organ fund. The club also intends to follow the custom of similar clubs in the eastern colleges, and make a grand spring tour of the large cities of the state for the benefit of the Athletic association. This trip will probably be made in connection with the mandolin and guitar players, and as it will be something novel for the state, it should net a good sum for athletics. VIEWS. WHAT has the Athletic association done and what is it doing for the advancement of the Athletic interests of the University? This question is constantly asked by a large number of our students and with good reason. It was supposed when the A. A. was organized that it would begin active work and that more method and system would be brought to the management of athletics. We have been disappointed, instead of resulting in better management it has resulted in no management at all. The athletic association has so far done nothing to merit the confidence of the students and is doing nothing to merit it. Better athletic organizations were maintained when they were managed by individual effort. When the athletic association was organized this individual effort ceased to a large extent and there has been nothing to take its place. We used to have one of the best ball clubs in the state. The athletic association last year sunk about one hundred dollars in a base ball club which would have been a discredit to the smallest college. Not only this but poor men were played on the nine when there were far better men in the college. No effort was made for systematic training nor in finding out what material there was in the college. Moreover, plenty of games could have been played at home with a second nine, thus saving the exhibition of our mediocre talent outside of town, and the athletic association would have been to no expense. What is being done for base ball next year? Surely the various men who will probably be candidates for positions on the team next spring should be in training for their respective positions. Instead of this everything is being carried on in the usual laxy method. Last year some interest was taken in rowing. Did the Athletic Association do anything this phase of athletics? No. It was organized by individual effort and did not receive a cent from the Athletic association. This year the boats are not in good condition. Has the Athletic association taken any measure to have them put in good condition and encourage rowing this fall? The foot ball interests have been organized this fall, but by individual effort the boys even buying their own suits. Have the tennis interests ever been helped by the Athletic association? Has the Athletic association arranged for any games this fall? Instead of spending $100 on a poor base ball club, football and tennis could have been placed on a solid foundation. What was the Athletic association doing all last spring besides fooling with the ball club? It was raising about $150 from the students for the athletic field. A few energetic students could have raised this sum in a whek, but it took this august body over 100 days. What is the Athletic association doing this fall? Again trying to raise money from the students. It has been two months since school began and a small amount has been raised. The whole school could have been canvassed in three days by a dozen energetic workers; and the Athletic association has dragged the matter out for weeks. The Athletic association complains that the students do not subscribe, that they have small interest in athletics, and that they will sacrifice no other interests. The trouble is with the Athletic association and not with the students. Let the students see active work begun on the athletic field, let them see a start made, show them the plans, and money will be forthcoming. The students do not wish to subscribe money and not know but what it is to be swamped in a poor ball club or held in trust for the athletic field a hundred years from now. The students of Harvard and Yale subscribe to the foot and base ball clubs because they know that the management is such that the teams will be a credit to the college and a matter of pride to all. Let the Athletic association put in its efforts to develop a ball team that will honor the University and no trouble will be had in raising money to arrange games for it. We have one of the best tennis teams in the state now. If the Athletic association wanted to get teams from Kansas City or Emporia here we believe they would have no trouble in raising the money. For the students know that the tennis team will acquit itself with credit to the University. We don't like to find fault but when the Athletic association was organized students supposed that it would take hold of athletics and develop them in a more systematic manner. And thus far the individual effort ceased. What athletics needs is for some one with authority to go ahead and organize the interests. The Athletic association is elected for that purpose and before much money can be collected from the students or much enthusiasm aroused it has got to put men in training for athletic contests. The Athletic association puts the cart before the horse. Gentlemen of the A. A. arouse yourselves. X. Y. Z. DISCUSSED EDUCATIONAL MATTERS. In his office yesterday, in a brief interim of relief from political duties of the last week of the campaign, John Sullivan was discussing the educational institutions of Kansas and Missouri with some educators who had called. Said he: "The board of curators of the Missouri university is slow to a censurable degree in securing an executive for the institution, and it is undoubtedly suffering accordingly. "The State University of Kansas is the ideal state educational institution of the country, next to Ann Arbor. Yet last year, being with out an executive, having only a figurehead management in a regent at a large salary, its set back can not be estimated. The board, through obstructory tactics of interests existing, failed at all meetings to act until the unanimous demand of the press of the state compelled action. Professor Snow was elected and confidence destroyed was again restored. Increased attendance, harmony in faculty and discipline in class work testify to Professor Snow's good work as chancellor. His executive ability surprises even his most sanguine friends. An institution must have a head. The Missouri curators should act."—Kansas City Journal. The work done by the foot ball players during the last few days gives promise that we expect a good strong first eleven this fall. With at first very little known material to work with, a great deal of very good material has been developed. What the players still lack, however, is a thorough knowledge of the rules and tactics of the game. We think it would be a good plan for the Athletic association to secure some college man who understands foot ball to come and teach the eleven for a few weeks. The results we feel would be speedily felt. In the last Saturday's match the work of Sherman, Dyer, Coleman and Chaplain was to be particularly commended. Sherman and Dyer are undoubtedly the best men for half back that can be secured. With a good quarter back and such men as Peairs, Champlan, Coleman and Hudson in the mob line we cannot but have a strong team. THE COURIER, on behalf of the students of K. S. U., extends welcome to the scientists who are here attending the Kansas Academy of Science. The present session is attracting the attention of thoughtful people all over the state, and will prove of permanent value to scientific research by encouraging and affording a plan for the comparison of all scientific work. Bruns Bros., the proprietors of the Mirrior Billiard hall will make it pleasant for you in Kansas City. Have you seen the new Ties at Abe Levy's? The Kent club was the recipient of a fine large portrait (14x24) of Judge Thos. M. Cooley, of Ann Arbor, which will be hung in the recitation room of the Law department. The club ordered that a vote of thanks be communicated to the distinguished judge in acknowledgment of the gift. Boys, when in Kansas City visit the Mirror Billiard Hall, 607 Main street.

It was established more than twenty years ago by some of the scientific men of the state. In those days in meant a great love of science for one to keep such an association in running order. The names of Parker, Snow, Mudge, Savage and Frazer are familiar to those who know the earlier history of our state. Some of the men are gone, but others have come to fill their places. A few of the older members of the Academy and many of the younger ones are with us this week. The program includes an interesting address by Pres. Failyer, a reception by the Science club of the University on Thursday evening and an exhibition of lantern and microscopic slides on Friday evening. During Thursday and Friday the members of the Academy read papers upon a great variety of topics. We have not space to give the full program. The following are suggestive of the subjects treated; An Electrical Hygrometer; Periodicity in Plants; Notes on Sugar Beets;Kansas Salt Marshes;A Comparison of Preservative fluids for museum use; Civilization of the Mound Builders; Radiation of Heat from Foliage; Kansas rolling plants; Evolution in Leaves; Structure of Kansas Chalk; Experiments on the Propogation of Disease among Chinch Bugs; On the Nutation of Sunflowers. Among the men who are in attendance may be noted, Profs. Kellerman, Failyor, Popenoe and Graham, of Manhattan; Profs. Dinsmore and Kelly, of Emporia; Dr. Thompson and Prof. Cragin, of Topeka; J. R. Mead and Prof. Carton, of Ottawa; Robert Hay, of Junction City, and R. J. Brown, of Leavenworth. A number of ladies are also in attendance. The Science club gave a complimentary reception in Snow hall last night to the visiting members. This reception has usually been an important feature of the annual meeting, as it affords the members an opportunity to meet one another and compare notes. All the odd moments at the command of the visitors are spent in looking through our collections, laboratories, museums and shops. The people of the city show their appreciation of our guests and of the scientific side of our institution by cheerfully entertaining them in their homes. Special mention should be made of the lantern exhibitions this evening in the chapel. As the Science club wants the students to enjoy this entertainment with them, it has been decided to hold this, the last session of the Academy, in the Chapel at 8 o'clock. The Glee club promises some of their choice selections and altogether a very enjoyable evening is anticipated. The Topeka Capital says that nearly every student of Washburn who voted, voted the straight republican ticket. AMUSEMENTS. "ALONE IN LONDON." "Alone in London" began its annual engagement in Kansas City at the Midland theater yesterday. The long life of this popular meodrama testifies to its merit. The company headed by William De Shetley, is a capable one and the scenic features interesting. The Baltimore Morning Herald, of Sept. 2, 1890, says: The performance given last night at the Temple Theatre was William De Shetley's melodrama "Alone in London." The house was crowded many being turned away for want of room. The play is thrilling, with many exciting scenes, the best of which is the old sluice house at the end of the third act.

RASNELL, ARCHITECT THE NEW LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL We take pleasure in presenting a cut of the new Lawrence High School building in this issue of the COURIER. The University has received so many of the graduates of this school within its walls that a special interest is being taken in everything concerning its welfare. Prof. E. Miller was the first principal and at that time, 1871, there were but six scholars, now there are nearly three hundred. The building in on the southeast corner of Warren and Kentucky streets and is 113 ft long by 87 feet wide. It is built of pressed brick faced, with cottonwood stone, and contains a chapel, library, conservatory, dressing rooms, two large halls and ten large recitation rooms. The rooms contain 480 single desks. The tower is about 130 feet high and contains the old historic bell and clock which used to hang in the tower of the Unitarian church. Prof. A. J. May is the present principal of the school and the work done is thorough. The High School fits students for the Freshman class in nearly all the courses. A large number of students from outside the county are being fitted here for the University, and the number so doing will probably be increased from year to year, especially when the preparatory department is entirely done away with. SEMINARY MEETING. THE DEEP HARBOR QUESTION Judge J. S. Emery read an able paper last Friday afternoon before a special meeting of the Seminary of Historical and Political Science on the subject of the Deep Harbor question. Judge Emery is a member of the national committee appointed last fall at the Topeka convention, and has made a special study of this subject. The speaker reviewed the commercial affairs of this part of the Mississippi valley, proving by statistics that the home market is insufficient and a foreign market necessary to the greater prosperity of the country. If the products of Kansas could be shipped by way of the Gulf of Mexico to the markets of the world, a distance of 1,000 miles of land transportation would be saved and as land transportation costs six times as much as by water this is an important saving. By connecting San Diego with the nearest accessible harbor on the Texas coast by a railroad 1,200 miles in length, California would have direct connection with the Atlantic. Six of the largest railroads are in favor of the Deep Harbor plan, its principle opposition now being in the great cities of the east. Judge Emery closed with a description of the jetty system now being tried on the Gulf Although direct results at present may not be as great as expected there can be little doubt that trade will begin to drift toward the south before many years. Hon. F. H. Betton.of Topeka state labor commissioner, will read a paper on "Wages and Wage Earners," at the meeting of the Seminary at 4 this afternoon. A discussion will follow the reading of the paper. SOCIETY. PROGRAM KENT CLUB TO-NIGHT. Answer to roll call with quotations.

The Heroult method of reducing aluminum was discussed by Prof. Bailey, followed by scientific work by Mr. Rodgers. Next Friday night the Science Club will give an entertainment in the University chapel. Last Friday a challenge was issued by representatives of the Sophomore class to the Junior class to play a game of ball; the challenge was accepted and the time set for that afternoon. The two classes met and formed a ball nine out of material that had never covered itself with glory on the diamond. The game started with Allen in the box and Sawtell behind the bat for the Juniors, and Challiss in the box and Sherman behind the bat for the Sophomores. The game progressed as all such scrub games generally do with a big score and more errors. Sawtell was retired in the second inning and Crawford substituted. The Sophomores got a lead and easily kept it to the end of the game. There was only one assist and put out in the field on the Sophomore side. Sherman was a new man behind the bat, but he acquitted himself in good style. At the end of the fifth inning the Juniors thought they had enough and threw up the sponge. The French section of the Modern Language club had a very interesting meeting in its hall last Friday afternoon. The program consisted of a story by Prof. Canfield, essay I. C. G. INCOMPREHENSIBLE.

Every alumnus should take the COURIER. Otherwise he will not know what is taking place with his alma mater. The article in reply to x. y. z. found under the head of Views," and written by a prominent University man, will be published next week. The columns of the Courier are open for a full discussion of this matter, and we hope that any student having anything to say about it will not hesitate to use the Courier columns. Let us have a full and fair discussion. The foot ball eleven plays its first match game tomorrow afternoon with Baker. The result of the game will be watched with interest for we can then judge of the material of which the eleven is composed. The Baker boys have played foot ball for several years, yet we confidently expect our boys to acquit themselves well. They will go to Baker tomorrow each one determined to do his best and Baker will have to play foot ball to win. We hope that a large number of students will accompany the eleven, and back it up with some genuine University enthusiasm. This will do much toward winning the game. THE journalistic experience of the editor of the COURIER has not been very extensive, nor has it been entirely of a roseate hue. Once in a while, however, the editor comes across a choice bit of comment which cheers him considerably and shows him that his work and that of the staff is not entirely unappreciated. The following is from the Hesperian, of Lincoln. Nebraska: "Latest from the K. S. U.: There is but one paper here now, and Oh, that there were none. The COURIER has a good circulation and a co-ed for an exchange editor. For these reasons it may live a little longer." Thanks, Hesperian, thanks, for even this one small ray of hope. The annual University ball is a very pleasant affair. It brings together the different social elements of the University and encourages a more generous social feeling. The more our students get together, the more interest they have in common, the more love they will have for the University, and, if the expression will be permitted, the more love for each other. The University is so large. and University life so varied, that an intimate social acquaintance cannot exist between each and every student, hence the various societies and fraternities have their places. But there can be a coser and more intimate feeling cultivated among all the students than there has been in the past. The more class contests we have, the more University social gatherings we have; the more athletic contests with other colleges we have, the more, true University spirit will be developed within the University. EXCHANGES. We are sometimes asked why the COURIER does not publish an exchange column. It is our opinion after looking over a large number of magazines, that the exchange column as conducted in many of the papers, has no place whatever in college or any other kind of journalism. To think that an editor because he receives a lot of college papers must sit down and criticise them, giving a watery commentation here and an equally trite and superficial criticism there, making the two kinds balance up nearly even, with perhaps a preponderance in favor of the latter, in order that it may look to the students, who rarely ever see the papers in question, as if a keen perception had been brought to a focus upon the papers, bears no recommendation for either good sense or good taste. Besides no one cares to know that the "HighTown Buzz Flyer came to our table unregenerated as usual. The editor does not seem to have taken our advice," or that, "The Adam's Apple presents a very good issue this week." This kind of comment cannot be called news in any sense of the word. Look at these items from a recent issue of one of the college papers which may serve as an example of this kind of journalistic (?) work: Of the pacific Pharos we would say that punctuality and fairly good looks are its only redeeming qualities. We want to thank the Athenaeum for an excellent essay on Chaucer which may come handy some time when exams dot the firmament. The Lombard Reviewappears to be as heavy and as solid as ever. For downright laboriousness in a literary way we recommend the Review. The Warstburn Reporter and the Argo are having a tiff this year. Whether it be for money or life we know not. It looks like very little of either. University of Michigan now sports a daily, not content with even a weekly. Perhaps, however, a little of the experience of Cornell in this line may render it satisfied. Nevertheless we admire enterprise. The Baker Index presents in its first issue for this year the portrait and inaugural address of its newly elected president, W. A. Quayle, the youngest of college presidents. Baker it seems, is thus noted in one way at least. Latest from the K. S. W.; There is but one weekly paper published here now, and Oh, that there were none! The Courier has a good circulation and a co-ed for an exchange editor. For these reasons it may possibly live a while longer. Our Scholastic Dame again is making its weekly visits as serene as ever, as regular as ever, and withal the same as ever. Big heads (used in the colloquial sense) seldom accept advice so we'll not tender any in this case. Suffice it to say The Earthbamite seems to have profited but little by the advice we conscientiously gave it last year as to how to conduct its paper in such a manner as would make it more of a live college paper. that improvement is possible even in the Scholastic. We must not be understood to be opposed to the friendly exchange of papers, for by this means an editor can find out what other college papers are doing in journalistic work and what other colleges are accomplishing. By so doing he can compare notes and receive much help in the editing of his own paper. But if he has received new ideas the effects of them will be seen in his own paper without his publishing his views about this and that paper to the world. We do believe in publishing items of general interest about the different colleges, and short clippings from the different papers, but even then care must be exercised about what should be published. Underwear of all descriptions at Abe Levy's. There is Music in the Air. The Glee Club made its first appearance before the public last Friday night at the Academy of Science. The club shows the result of Prof. Penny's careful drill, and will hereafter be a pleasing feature of University gatherings. The club has decided to give a series of concerts in this and neighboring towns. The first concert will be given at Eudora Saturday night the 29th, and we can assure the citizens of that town that the program will be a thoroughly enjoyable one. Those who have not heard college songs sung by college men, have not yet heard all the good things of the world. There will be music by the Mandolin Club to give variety to the program. The mortar boards and gowns which have been ordered will give the boys a unique appearance and will add interest to the concert. Louborg Perfumes are standard. Leis Drug Co. carries Alpine Violet, Goya Lilly, Edenia, etc. Stop in and get a bottle. Party Ties, something new, at Abe Levy's. MARRIAGE BELLS ROOT- SIMPSON. John W.

Current Decisions, Mr. Sullivan. Current News, Mr. Walker.. Discussion in committee of the whole on house bill No. 1, entitled An Act for Building Ware Houses. The program for November was very well rendered. The literary part of the program taking so much time that the debate had to be postponed in order to give time for the election of officers. The following officers were elected: President, Mr. Foster; vice president, Mr. McLaughlin; secretary, Mr. Still well; treasurer, Mr. Bower; excommittee, Foster, Stillwell, Webster. The club then adjourned to attend the Seminary. Mr. Samuel Feller, one of the Juniors of 1889 90, has been elected county attorney of Grey county on the democratic ticket. Mr. Feller was an excellent student, a great favorite with the Profs., and there is no doubt but that he will make an excellent officer. The class extends to him their hearty congratulations. Mr. T. A. Pollock, class of '89 was elected county attorney of Wyandotte county, on the republican ticket. The graduates of K. S. U. law school are coming to the front. The library of the law department has received another valuable addition during the past week viz. $183 worth of different reports and digests. Profs. A. S. Candy and Fred E. Cluff, of Campbell University, Holton, visited K. S. U. during the past week. Hon. J. C. Borwn, attorney at law, of Holton, Kan., and husband of Mrs. Ella Brown of the Senior class, was in the city Sunday. Er. E. S.

Bishop was married to Miss Mattie Russell of this city, at the home of the bride's brother-in-law, Mr. Moore, in Wichita. The affair was quiet, only a few intimate friends being present. The young couple came to Lawrence, their future home, the next day. Mr. Bishop is a graduate of the law class of '89, and was recently elected county attorney on the democratic ticket over Dr. Summerfield. Mrs. Bishop is well known and respected in Lawrence.

There is no better place in Kansas City to spend a leisure hour than the Mirror Billiard hall, 607 Ham street upstairs. Hoyt has written many plays but it is with "A Trip to Chinatown" that we have to do with now. Whoever has been through that portion of San Francisco known as Chinatown, will at once realize the fine possibilities of building a comedy upon it. Within a radius of about one square mile dwell the Celestials who have come to the United States in bondage. They exclude themselves from all others than their own race, but their manners and customs are a resistless attraction to visitors on the coast, and parties are frequently, almost nightly, in fact, formed to go through "Chinatown." In the interpretation of this new work Mr. Hoyt has selected from among the best of the people who have won fame and position on the stage through his work. Miss Lena Merville, familiar as "Teddy" in "A Bunch of Keys" in the days of that play's remarkable popularity, has been supplied with a character to fit her delightful peculiarities.

The University ball to be held at Frazier's Hall Tuesday night, Nov. 25, will be the fashionable event of the school year. The proceeds of the ball are to go to the Athletic Association, and the ball will be under the management of a committee from the Athletic board consisting of R.K. Moody, R.R. Whitman and H.S. Hadley. In order that the hall be not crowded, and to insure a pleasant time for all who attend, only sixty tickets, each admitting a gentleman and lady, have been placed on sale. These tickets may be obtained of Clerk Moody at the office, and should be secured at once, as under no circumstance will any be sold above the sixty limit. The sale will be confined exclusively to University people, and the ball thus made a distinctly University affair. A fine orchestra will be in attendance and every thing will be done to make this the nicest ball ever given in the University. Hon. Frank H. Betton, state labor commissioner, discussed the subject of "Wages and Wage Earners" before the Seminary of Historical and Political Science yesterday afternoon. Mr. Betton has been making investigations on the subject for the past five years. At the conclusion of his paper the members of the Seminary plied him with questions on the condition of wage earners in Kansas. If you have any books to sell write to B.

Kansas Academy of Science. The meeting of the Academy held here Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of last week, was a successful one in all respects. The Science Club entertained the visiting members in fine style, and did their part in every way possible to make the meeting a success. The work accomplished by the academy in the presentation of papers of original investigation for discussion and by bringing the scientific men of the state together for acquaintance and consultation is very satisfactory, and conducive of many beneficial results. Although rain prevented a large attendance at the closing sessions, on the whole the sessions were well attended and great interest was manifested throughout. The organization of the Kansas Academy of Science—found in the organization of the Kansas Natural History Society, on Sept. 1, 1868 at Lincoln (now Washburn) college, Topeka. The meeting and organization was pursuant to a call signed by seventeen of the leading scientific men of the state. At the fourth annual meeting, Oct. 1871, the name was changed to the Kansas Academy of Science, and the scope of its work enlarged so to embrace all the natural science. The late Professor Mudge was the first president, and Rev J. D. Parker, prof. of Natural History in Lincoln College, was its secretary. Among others who were especially prominent may be mentioned. F. H. Snow, John Fraser, J. H- Carruth and F. W. Bardwell. To the enthusiasm of these men was due the early success of the organization. In 1873, by the acceptance of an act passed by the previous legislature, the academy became a co-ordinate department of the state board of agriculture. Thus early the practical benefits resulting from such an association were recognized. In 1883 the Academy met for the first time in this city, all meetings previous to that time having been held at Topeka. Since then meetings have been held in different parts of the state, Leavenworth, Manhattan, Welchia and Emporia. The past presidents of the society are: B.F. Mudge, John Frazier, F.H. Snow, J.T. Lowell, A.H. Thompson, R.J. Brown, E.L. Nichols, J.D. Parker, J.R. Mead, and T.H. Dinsmore, Jr. The program of the Academy for this meeting has been as follows: The aim of the academy has always been to foster original research and investigation, and the range of topics touched upon has been very wide, the different papers presented at each meeting bearing upon Botany, Entomology, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Anthropology, Pharmacy and applied Mathematics. The program of the Academy for this WEDNESDAY. At 5 o'clock the academy met for a short business meeting at the Eldridge hotel. Among other business the following committees were appointed: Membership—Marvin,Smith and Mead;program,D. S.Kelley,C.F.Marlatt,F.H.Kellogg.

The following papers were then read, "Psychology of Facial Expression," Dr. A. H. Thompson of Topeka. "Evolution in Leaves." Mrs. W. A. Kellerman of Manhattan. Between the papers the audience was entertained by music by the Pharmacy quartette. THURSDAY. At 9 o'clock the meeting was called to order for a short business session, after which the presentation of papers was opened by Prof. W. A. Kellerman on "Observations on the Nutation of Sunflowers" E. C. Murphy presented a paper and a c. chart showing the temperature curve based on weather observations taken at the University from 1868 to 1888. C. M. Breese presented a chart illustrating the "Rainfall at Manhattan." Col. Goss, of Topeka, reported a second occurrence of the White-faced Glossy ibis taken October 17, 1890 on the Arkansas river, the first specimen having been taken in 1879 at Lake View. Mr. E. E. Slosson gave the results of his experiments in the varying sweetness of alcohols, and the capabilities for detecting this difference on part of different persons. Prof Blake then presented a new Electrical Hygrometer and explained its construction and its use. President Fulley gave a list of some additions to Kansas minerals. D. S. Kelley, from Emporia, presented notes on some Fossils of Lincoln county, Ks. A letter from J. D. Parker was then read by the secretary, expressing regret at his inability to attend. On motion a telegram of greeting to one of the founders of the academy was sent in response. THURSDAY AFTERNOON. Session opened at 2 o'clock by V. L. Kellogg on "Notes on Some Summer Birds of Estes Park, Colo."

Theodore Sheffer sings in the Baptist choir. Prof. Blake gave a lecture in Leavenworth last Friday night. Mr. Hair of Baker was in town Monday on newspaper business. Alrs! only two grades of I were given in the surveying class! Dr. G. O. Woods, of Springfield, Mass., visited with Prof. Bailey last week. Clyde McMurtery is now convalescent being under the care of his mother. Sheffer, Engle, Bowersock and Allshouse are the quartette of the glee club. The Phi Delts have three new men—Oscar and Tracy Learnard anh J. E. Dyche. Thanksgiving is coming and we will get a minutes rest if we don't eat any turkey. Crawford is entertaining Mr. C. W. Birch, a student of the Kansas Wesleyan college. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, NOV. 21, 1890. Rain, raint rain. A little bad to get up the hill, but an excellent thing for the country. The Freshman Greek class has completed the first two and is reading the third book of Homer. Rev. Strong, of this city.has done away with Sabbath evening preaching and is giving lectures on Genesis instead. His lectures are fine. The foot ball team did not go to Baldwin last Saturday on account of rain. They will go to tomorrow, the weather being favorable. If you have an item of news please hand it to some one of the local staff. It is impossible for one or two to ferret out all the events of the week. Work is progressing rapidly on the new Unitarian church. The church society will be better able to accommodate the public in the new building. If we are to have a University ball, let us have a representative one. Let Chancellor Snow preside and the prominent professors lead the quadrille. Of all the historic things about Lawrence, nothing has a more interesting history than the high school bell which we hear every morning. It is worth ones while to learn its story. God may forgive sins, but awkwardness has no forgiveness in Heaven or on earth." If this be true we feel sorry for some of the students at K. S. U. the way they handle the library doors, irrespective of those who may be on the other side. Prof. Canfield did not hear his classes Wednesday. Mrs. Ellen Learned, of St. Louis visited the University last Thursday. A number of the boys amuse themselves each afternoon by hunting ducks along the Kaw. Several of the Leavenworth boys will walk to that city Wednesday night. They probably want to walk off the effects of the ball. Cornell offers a prize of fifty dollars for the first essay on "Electoral Corruption, its Causes and Extent and its Remedy. The competition is open to students of all colleges and is not to exceed five thousand words. Prof. Canfield has just issued a pamphlet for the use of students in courses in American history and civics. The pamphlet gives complete information about the work in these courses, the work of the seminary and the newspaper bureau. The report that the Theta's will give a party the night of the 25th is a mistake. Every lady will attend the K. S. U. ball on that night. Rev J. E. Lyda, president of a college in Missouri, was at the University the first of the week. He was seeking information by which to improve his school. He was the guest of Rev. Yarger. As Palmer, last Friday in his Livy, was conveying Hanibal's vast army through the gorges and above the pecipices of the Alps, a terrified mouse dashed up his pants leg causing him to hurl the whole of the army to the bottom of the Alps. So the boys say. The Philological club meets tonight. Mrs. Carruth will read a paper on the "Eddas." Prof. Wilcox will read a paper entitled "A French View of Oedipus." The usual news notes will be presented. A large number of students are taking part in the Authors Carnival being held by the Episcopal ladies this week. Tonight is the closing night of the Carnival. Among those taking part are Hadley, Melvin, Bowersock, Lutz, Johnson, Whitman, Allen, King, Hudson, Carruth, Canfield, Sayre, Sherman, and almost all the University young ladies. The University bal. will be the most elegant social affair ever held in the University. The tickets are limited to sixty and have been nearly all taken. The ball will be held Tuesday night in Frazer's hall. Buch's orchestra will be in attendance. The Glee club will also sing the accompaniment for the dancers, waltz, quadrille and other numbers on the program. This will be the first appearance of the club with its new suits. What is pokeric? No we did not go. Miss Mamie Berry has resumed her studies in the University. Sophomore themes were handed in last Friday. There was a good sprinkling of students at Hoyt's "A Trip to Chinatown" last Saturday night. The German section of the Modern Language club will present a good program this afternoon at 4. The Glee Club and Mandolin and Guitar Club will give a concert at Eudora Saturday evening the 29th. No. 11. The foot ball match with Baker University which was to have taken place last Saturday was prevented by rain. The annual University ball at Frazer's hall Tuesday evening. Buch's orchestra will furnish the music. The Lecture Bureau may possibly secure Henry M. Stanley to lecture here some time during the winter. Prof. and Mrs. Sayre gave a very pleasant reception last Friday night, complimentary to Mrs. Sayres' sister, Mrs. Cyrus Falconer of Chicago. Ed Stimpson lectured last Friday night in Cedar Junction on "Color." The lecture was illustrated with experiments. * Simpson reports a pleasant time. Many students are going to take part in the Authors Carnival to be given by one of the churches of the city. Some of the costumes bid fair to be astonishing to say the least. Prof. W. H. Carruth gave one of three addresses under the head of "Vital Ideas in Religion to day" at the Unitarian conference in Topeka last Wednesday. Prof. Carruth spoke on Evolution. The following are the members of the sixteen composing the glee club: 1st. tenors—Boyee, Scheffer, Fisher, Stimpson; 2nd teners—Eicholtz, Engel, Peabody, Virtue; 1st. base—Bowersock, Keys, Sears, Bloss; 2nd base—Krehbiel, Chapman, Sawtell, Allhouse. Accompianist, A. J. Krehbiel, director, Prof. Penny, business manager, G. O. Virtue. Prof. Blake gave the opening lecture in the Leavenworth High School course last Friday evening, speaking upon the subject, "A Modern View of Electricity." The lecture was illustrated by experiments, an electrical wire having been run into the auditorium of the High school by which a powerful current of electricity was at command. Fred Simpson accompanied Prof. Blake and assisted in the experiments. The Leavenworth Times gives a very complimentary notice of the lecture. Dr. Snow went to Topeka today. University ball next Tuesday night. By Good Use has not the word "heat" a place in our language? The Freshman class has taken up the study of advanced algebra or the Lost Tral, a full description of My Vain Search for x. There may not be much in a name but Mr. E. W. Smith carried off the honors in sub-Fresh English and Miss Smith, of Leavenworth, corraled the glory in Freshman Geometry. Mr C W Butterworth, a graduate of last year, is practicing law in Butte Mont. He writes a very interesting letter which may be seen on application as it is too long for publication. The coming oratorical contest will without doubt be exciting. At present there are eight candidates in the field and prospects of a few more. Only six will be allowed to compete. They will be chosen on the merits of their production. We desire to call attention to Mrs. Sear's German announcement. Mrs. Sears is a graduate of the University, has taken special work in German and has had experience in teaching. Anyone desiring to make up German will find this an excellent opportunity to do so. The Month man on the Review is not as thick skinned as we thought. The importance of his position demands a reply to our touch-up, which he does in his characteristic manner. We are afraid that we will have to repeat his lesson, as he does not seem to have learnt it. On Tuesday night Mr Saunders met the mandolin and guitar players of the University and formed a club. The club will accompany the Glee club on its concert tour and play accompaniments for the singers and have a place on the program of its own. The members will wear full dress instead of mortar boards and gowns as the singers will. Judges Selected. Representatives of the different associations in the state met in Topeka last Saturday and selected judges for the State Oratorical Contest. The following is the list: On Thought and Composition Prof. J. M. Greenwood, Kansas City; Judge Caldwell, Topeka; Rev. Brewer, Peabody. Alternates—Prof. Bulcher, Fredonia; Mr. Allen, Chanute; Ion, Webb Wilder, Hiawatha. On Delivery—Hon. J. R. Halowell, Wichita; Prof. Todd, Sterling; Prof. Banta, Hiawatha; Alternates—Rev.

Green was presented with an elegant book rest by Mr. John Stowell of the law department. The Kent Club received a letter from ex-President Grover Cleveland stating that he had ordered his Washington photographer to prepare and forward to the club an enlarged photo of himself. The club ordered that a vote of thanks be communicated to him for his kindness. The photo will probably arrive in a few days. Mr. Stanley, a new student, entered the junior class a few days since. Justice Ridings, of Caldwell, father of S. P. Ridings, visited the junior recitation last Friday. He expressed a very high opinion of Prof. J. W. Green as an instructor in law. Since the opening of the district court the attendance at the law recitations has been somewhat irregular, but the attendance of the law students at the court house has been very good. German.

Stanley used to be a news paper reporter in Omaha, and it is supposed that while engaged in that work he acquired that boldness and hardihood of character which enabled him to cope successfully with the natives of the "Dark Continent. "WINNING ORATIONS " TEE clipping about University matters, taken from the Kansas City Journal which we published in a recent issue does not voice either editorial sentiments of the Courier or the sentiments of the students and other persons connected with the University. No one will attempt to deny, but that the University will be more prosperous with a chancellor at its head, who is known over the entire country as a broad and liberal educator. That the University received any set back, or that affairs were mismanaged last year, no one acquainted with Regent Spangler's work as the executive head of the University, his recognized ability and fidelity to his trust, will for an instant admit. It is high time the Kansas City papers recognized this and stopped publishing malicious and false statements about matters pertaining to the University. A prospectus announcing the forthcoming publication entitled "Winning Orations" of inter-state oratorical contests, and "Biographies of Contestants," has been received by the Courier. The book is being gotten up by C. E. Prather, of Topeka. It will contain the first and second orations of the interstate contest and biographies and photographs of the winning orators. The book will be a very valuable one for all students interested in oratory, and especially valuable as a book of reference for those who intend entering the coming contests. VIEWS. THE ATLITHELIC ASSOCIATION.—AN ABLE ANSWER TO X. Y.Z. The communication of [X. Y. Z] n last week's Courier regarding the work and value of the Athletic association has an interest for all students and has attracted a good deal of attention. I was struck by the general fairness of the writers views, but he makes a few statements to which I wish to take exception. I was somewhat puzzled to know what he was driving at, for he says, "the trouble is with the Athletic association and not with the students." Now the membership of the association consists of all the students and the faculty of the University. The force of the statement would be better comprehended if he had said, "the trouble is with the students and faculty and not with the students." This seems a little hard on the faculty, but it is a fair statement of his proposition. The Athletic association is an association of the students and faculty of the University,with a board of officers of fourteen members called the Athletic board. The object of the association is to promote Athletic interests in the University. The real qesion at issue is whether the organization promotes athletic interest or not. No one who knows the history of athletics in the University and who will take an impartial view of the matter can fail to admit that there is a much greater general interest than ever before. Of this interest the Athletic association is in a large measure the cause. But I am to say something of X x z's strictures. He complains most of base ball. The club of last year was not the most creditable club the University ever had; but it is going too far to say it would have been a discredit to the smallest college. An examination of the club's record will prove this. Again, the association did not sink one hundred dollars, nor the third of it, in the club and, moreover, not a cent of the money subscribed by students and faculty was applied to the expenses of the club. As to base ball this year, there has never been as much interest in this sport in the autumn in the history of the University, nor have the interests been as carefully attended to, nor has anyone at any time known in the fall as well as now what base ball material we had. Most of the men are chosen and are in training for their respective positions. On the subject of foot ball, the writer is slightly off. The foot ball interests have been organized this fall, as x y z says, "by individual effort," at the same time, he ought to have added, under the direction and encouragement of the Athletic Association. "Individual effort" organized the foot ball team, always has organized foot ball teams and all others, and as long as they are to be organized will continue to organize them. No other effort is worth talking about. This fact, it has often been observed, cannot be changed by organizing and electing a president, secretary and treasurer. The best such an organization can do is to give "individual effort", unity of aim, and this is exactly what our association is doing. The foot ball men have not been obliged to get their own suits, as x y z might have known by a little attention to facts. The inferences from his statements regarding tennis and rowing are as misleading as what he says of base ball and foot ball. The students of Harvard and Yale subscribe liberally for athletics because they know their teams will be a credit to them; our students do not subscribe because they do not know whether our teams will be a credit to us or not. This is about what I gather from X. Y. Z's argument. Let us maintain this narrow view and continue to refuse our aid to all enterprises of which we are not positively sure of the result, and we will be in our present position some centuries later. "The Athletic association puts the cart before the horse." "Let the students see active work begin on the Athletic field," etc. X.Y.Z. says. In another place he says the collections last year amounted to $150 and only a small amount has been raised this year. Of this sum, according to X.Y.Z., about $100 was sunk in base ba l. This leaves a princely sum in the hands of the association. Begin work on the Athletic field, indeed! Now, as a common sense business proposition, I submit that X.Y.Z. is putting the cart before the horse in such talk as this. In conclusion let me say that the students have not gotten rid of individual responsibility by organizing an association. There is a better opportunity now for "individual effort" than ever before. The greatest need at present, is more "individual effort." I wish to exhort X. Y. Z. and all others to make greater "individual effort" and give the Athletic board the best you can of time and money. And I wish to urge the board to more energetic work as X. Y. Z so ably does in his article. G. THE UNIVERSITY AND THE HIGH SCHOOL. The University is but one—the last step in the educational ladder which this state in its fore sight and care has erected. First, the eight years of common school work, leading to the high school. Then the three or four years high school training, leading to the final four years course in the University. A notion fortunately not very prevalent but more or less wide spread that the University is an institution apart and distinct from the general education scheme of the state should be dispelled. The University is an integral part of the grand system of cumulative education which the people of Kansas offer freely to the children of the state. It is gratifying to know that each year the connecting link between the University and the High school is becoming more perfect. That the University is rapidly coming to occupy the place in the state educational system which it was intended that it should. A few years ago there was hardly a high school in the state which fitted for the freshman class in the University. The University could not under those circumstances touch the educational life of the state as it ought. Last year in the supplementary catalogue there were twenty-one accredited high schools which fitted scholars for one or more of the regular University courses. This year there are thirty-five high schools which fit for one or more of the regular courses, an increase of over sixty per cent. These high schools will prepare on the average for three of the six regular courses offered by the University. Among the schools recently added to the list, are those of Abilene, Chanute Cherryvale, Fort Scott, Hays City, Hiawatha, Jewell City, Minneapolis, Sedgwick, Seneca and Solomon City. The number of high schools in list 2, those failing by not more than three terms work in one subject to fit for any one of the regular courses, will be about the same this year as last, about thirty-six. The two new courses recently established in the University, the Latin English and the General Language, are meeting with very general approbation over the state. Twenty of the accredited high schools will prepare for the new courses, the majority in addition to preparing for some of the four older courses. That is where schools are already fitting for the old course the new courses are meeting with approval. In short; a very general inclination is shown by the high schools all over the state to get into line with University work. Some that are not able to do so at present are looking forward to being able to at an early period. The number of students received from high schools this year is far in excess of the number received last, and the number will increase each year. A GOOD SHOWING. The aim of the University authorities is not to lower the standard of admission but to bring the high schools up to the requisite standard. The University is in constant correspondence with high school principal-, teachers and school boards all over the state, and there is no doubt but that the work of Chancellor Snow and the regents of the Universiily in perfecting the link between the University and the high school, has the commendation of all the professors and teachers in the state. The broad and liberal education afforded by colleges of high standing is coming to be recognized as a necessity to perfect growth and development. The progress and greatness of our state in the future will be dependent upon the ability of its citizens for intelligent judgment and action. The Glee club accompanied by the Mandolin and Guitar club will give a popular entertainment at Eudora next Saturday night for the benefit of the "Chapel Organ fund." he Enrollment in the Regular Collegiate Courses -285 This Year to 216 Last Year. The total enrollment of the University thus far is 485 compared to about 500 at this time last year. The falling off is mainly in the sub-Freshman classes, the law school and the art department. The regular collegiate classes are, with the exception of the senior class larger than ever before. Here are some interesting figures of the attendance this year as compared to last. Freshman class 113 to 95; Sophomore 61 to 38; Junior 24 to 23; Seniors 22 to 29; post grunuits 22 to 17; Special students 42 to 22. Total in all the collegiate courses not including sub-Freshman classes in the various schools 285 to 216 last year. The sub-Freshman classes have fallen from 138 last last year to 38 this year. As to the special schools the Laws number 45 to 57 last year; Music students 63 to 59; Art students 21 to 40; Pharmacy 33 to 31. It will be seen by these figures that the total enrollment has not increased. The University has made a substantial growth in the lines connected with the true work of a University. The large increase of post-graduate students and those attracted here to pursue special lines of research is particular gratifying. Next year will probably see the University with its sub-Freshman classes entirely, done away with having a larger attendance than ever before. This, considering the fact that the sub-Freshman classes a few years ago numbered several hundred, shows the position the University is coming to occupy among the institutions of higher education.

[Buffalo Times.] At the Court street Theatre, standing room only was displayed before 8 o'clock. The occasion was the first production in Buffalo of the farce comedy "Running Wild," To say that "Running Wild" is funny is not enough, it is by far the most laughable absurdity ever seen here. There is just enough plot to make it interesting. Messrs Philips and Harvon are both very witty, and their actions kept the audience in a continual roar. All the sayings and puns are new and taking. The company is headed by that winsome little Soubrette, Miss Cora Pryor, whose singing and dancing captures all hearts. She is obly assisted by a competent corps of artists "Running Wild" will be the attraction at Bowersock's Opera House next Saturday night, Nov. 22nd. Seats. on sale at Crew's Thursday morning. ATHLETICS. FOOT BALL. Although laboring under a number of disadvantages, from lack of time and want of proper coaching, the foot ball team has already developed a number of good men and several match games will be played within, a few days. Tomorrow the eleven will make its first appearance at Baker, and the result will be watched with interest. The eleven will line up to-morrow as follows: Hong...Left end rush Champain...Left tackle Haddleston...Left guard Cherman...Center rush Peairs...Right guard, captain Cook...Right tackle Case...Right end rush Hudson...Quarter back Sherman | Dyer | Half backs Palmer | Full back Substitutes, Williamson, Raymood, Rid- The elevens are all provided with good canvas suits with black stockings, caps and belts. The boys will leave on the Southern Kansas, at 10 a.m. tomorrow morning. It is hoped that a large number of students will accompany them and give the proper enthusiastic backing. The fare for the round trip will not he over 95c at the further and will probably be 65c. NOTES. The Baker eleven will play a return match here next Monday afternoon. 7 The crack Y. M.C.A. team of Kansas City, have asked our team to play them at their park in Kansas City on Thanksgiving Day. The game will probably be played. The grounds in South Lawrence are being put in good shape and the foot ball organization will in the course of the month be in condition to require more regular practice which is all that is necessary to secure a substantial team as we have as good men as you will find anywhere. Washburn is developing a good team and will be asked to arrange for two games after Thanksgiving. The Athletic A. is making arrangements to have an expert foot ball player come and coach the eleven for a short time. He will probably be secured at Kansas City.

The long looked for foot ball game between Yale and Harvard took place at Springfield, Mass , last Saturday. Harvard won by the close score of twelve to six. At the end of the first half neither eleven had scored, but in the next half Harvard got in her work. It was one of the most exciting and brilliant games in the history of foot ball. Harvard's strength lay in the frequent punting. The Kansas City Journal says of the game after the first touch down had been scored for Harvard: "The Harvard men hugged each other indiscriminately, and men and women jumped up and down upon the seats until the grand stand was in danger. Even the 125 policemen were embraced and their helmets smashed in the delirium of the moment, and the whole performance was repeated often when the second touch down came, and the victory was clinched." Mr. Cunningham, of St. Louis, was registered Thursday. Prof, Willston delivered a lecture at Tonganoxia Thursday night. Mr. Henry and Mrs. Emery, of Kansas City, were shown through the buildings.

Ed Esterly writes from Philadelphia "everything is passing pleasantly with me, although I think of dear old Lawrence often. The Courier comes with its merry contents and is awaited with pleasure." FOOT BALL The Lawrence undertakers are enterprising to say the least. This is from the Record: J. W. Robertson went to Baldwin to-day to see his old friend J. H. Boyd, formerly of this city, who is reported to be dying. J. W. Robertson'a undertaking room is located first door north of the National Bank. K.S.U.vs.Baker. Baker will have at least eight contestants in the local oratorical contest. Sam McRoberts and John Games are regarded as likely winners. Some of the contestants wrote their orations last summer. Much enthusiasm prevails at Baker and her orator will undoubtedly be a strong one. The contest promises to be, as usual, a triangular one between K. S. U., Baker and Washburn. The Washburn reporter of November 19th says: "Jim Hair, the delegate from Baker to choose judges for the inter-state contest, was on the hill Saturday. Mr. Hair thinks that Baker has the crack foot ball eleven of the state, and very confidently informed us that the Baker team would condescend to white-wash us at any time. He says they have a heavy team and boasted considerably of its ability. Also that they are ready for us in tennis." A Good Exhibition of Foot Ball Playing in which Baker Gets the Best of it by the Score of 22 to 9. It was a jolly *crowd of students that went to Baldwin last Saturday to see the first foot ball match of any importance ever played between two Kansas colleges. The day was all that could be desired, bright, clear and just warm enough not to be uncomfortable. At 1 o'clock the crowd commences to assemble on the Baker grounds, the stragglers from K. S. U. come in on horseback, on foot, driving and bicycle, and about half past one the elevens make their apearance. It is seen at once that the Baker eleven is composed of much heavier men than our own. Prof. Carruth is chosen referee and John Moorehead of Baker Umpire. Baker wins the toss and exactly at 1.45 the elevers are lined up, and the ball placed on the ground ready for the first kick off by Baker. Off it goes over the heads of the K. S. U. rush line to full back Palmer and the battle is on. respondent and wonder when our men are going to do something. The Baker rush line does not belie its looks and proves a stumbling block to our men from the first. Back and forth the ball goes, but steadily nearing the K. S. U. goal until at 1.53, exactly, eight minutes after the start Baker scores the first touch down and the Bakerites give vent to their enthusiasm. K. S. U. then retires behind its goal and every one holds his breathe while Baker tries for what seems an easy goal. The ball goes far wide of the mark however, K. S. U. gets it and the University men breath easier. K. S. U. then puts the ball in play and Hoag punts it half way down the field where it is held. It does not do much good, for the Baker rush line again, forces the fight close to the K. S. U. goal where a long struggle ensues, the ball at last going to K. S. U. on Baker's failure to make five yards in three downs. K. S. U. does not gain much, and at 2.10 Baker pushes over the line and scores the second touch down twenty-five minutes after the start. This time it is such an easy goal that every one feels certain that Baker will score, but again the ball goes wide of the mark. The score is, however, 8 to 0 in favor of Baker, only twenty minutes of the first half remain to be played, and the ball has scarcely been in Baker's territory. The Baker crowd is jubilant while the University men are des- Again the ball is put in play and by good work it is sent into Baker's field. Again Baker's indomitable rush line steadily forces it toward n the K, S, U. goal, but this time it is not destined to arrive. Hudson gets the ball and punts it away down into Baker's field. Some sharp work follows in which Sherman manages to get the ball and making a phenominal run touches it down scarcely fifteen inches within the Baker goal, and K, S, U. has its first touch down. The Bakerites are then treated to some University cheering by way of a change, and learn how it is done. K, S, U. punts the ball out but it is not caught and the chance for a goal is lost. The battle is then waged about Baker's twenty five yard line, where presently from the mass of kicking legs and swaying bodies the ball is seen to rise and sail directly over the Baker goal. Immediately a shout goes up, for Sherman has kicked a phenominal goal from the field and K, S, U. is one ahead. The University men go wild with enthusiasm while the Bakerites keep a mournful silence. This last play is by all odds the finest of the match. The first half is not quite over yet and Baker tries desperately to score again but all in vain, and the first half ends with the score 9 to 8 in favor of K, S, U. The eleven now stop for the ten minutes' rest and each crowd of sympathizers awaits the next half with confidence. One is doomed to disappointment and the other to unlooked for joy. At last the rest is over and the second half has begun. The Baker men now play on the upper side of the field and the battle is waged anew. For about twenty minutes neither side scores, but from that time on the ball remains constantly in K. S. U. territory, Baker playing on the offensive and the University on the defensive. The heavy work of the Baker rush line and the phenomenal work of Goodale the Baker half back has begun to tell heavily on the K. S. U. forces. Goodale now punts the ball over the K. S. U. rush line, full back Palmer makes an unanovoidable fumble of it, and before he can recover Baker has the ball and scores a touch down, shortly afterwards a goal and K. S. U. stick has taken a rapid flight downward. The ball again goes into play and Baker forces the fight and in a short time Goodale makes a magnificent run and scores another touch down, but Baker again fails to kick goal. K. S. U, then makes what seems a safety but the umpire does not see it that way and it is not allowed, and exactly at four o'clock Baker scores the final touch down and the last half and match is over. The Bakerites bug each other and give vent to their enthusiasm in a series of nondescript yells, they having no regular college cheer. The University players pile into the busses for the depot, the straglers depart, and the first K. S. U.-Baker foot ball match is a thing of the past. The elevens lined up as follows; BAKER... K. S. U. Rice... left tackle... Champlain Wren... left end rush... Hong Caudry A... left guard... Hudleston Attertion... center rush... Coleman Davis... right guard... Kinsey Lockhart... right tackle...

SOCIETY EVENT. First time in Lawrence by a professional company. Though regarded by some as a play for the young, the audiences drawn together by "Little Lord Fauntleroy" includes the gray-haired and all the ages betweer, down to the curly headed boy and girl—less, even in years than Mrs. Burnett's little hero. This wonderfully successful play will be given at the opera house, Friday, Nov. 28. Scats on sale Wednesday morning. "Little Lord Fauntleroy' will be given by French's company, the New York and Boston cast. THANKS GIVING ATTRACTION. The attraction to be presented at the Opera House Thursday, November 27, will be the face of"Town Lots." The Kansas City Journal of last week says; The audiences at both the afternoon and evening performances appeared to enjoy themselves immensely. Miss Williard, the star of the company, is a clever actress, a graceful dancer and a good singer. Her music is a little serious for the balance of the performance, and, to many in the audience, was the bright part of the presentation. Ross Snow is a good comedian of the facial burlesque sort. There are several clever touches in his performances. Jennie Sylvester does a pretty dance. Seats now on sale. The foot ball eleven will leave for Kansas City on the 7.35 train on the Santa Fe to-morrow morning. The eleven will be entertained by the Kansas City Y. $ _{2} $ M.C.A., and after the game will be given a Thanksgiving dinner. The game will take place at 3.30 p.m. at the Y.M.C.A.park, at the end of the 12th street cable. A large number of students will see the game.

THE COURIER hopes that each and every student will spend a pleaivisant Thanksgiving, and come back fresh and invigorated for the duties of University life. No, the University did not win at Baker last Saturday, but it played Baker a mighty interesting game. Next time the result will be different, mark the prediction. THERE is one thing the University has that none of the other colleges of the state have, and that is a practical, rousing, old fashioned cheer. This remark was heard at Baker a number of times. "Why can't we get up a good cheer. Why! as it is now fifty University men can make more noise than all the Baker students put together. Yes, we can yell a few if we cannot always play foot ball. The eleven has played its nrs match and when we consider that nearly all our players kicked their first ball not more than four weeks ago, the showing made was certainly creditable. Baker on the other hand has played foot ball more or less for three years and nearly every one on their eleven is an old player, one of them having been a prominent man on the Lake Forrest University eleven. The fact that the Baker eleven has had an experienced player to coach it since school began was a great point to its advantage. Not a man on our team knew anything about foot ball until this fall. That we should hold the heavier Baker eleven down to a score of 22 to 9. There are a number of weak places in the team, mainly due to lack of strength in the rush line, but they will be strengthened by the time of the next match with Baker. K. S. U. has no need to feel dissatisfied with the outcome of this its first match, on the other hand it should be a matter for congratulation. It shows however just where our weakness lies. German.

ALICE PEABODY SEARS. Instructor A Visit to the state University of Louisiana. Louisiana. On the 23rd of February 1890, I stepped from the platform of the north bound train from New Orleans, upon the depot of the city of Baton Rouge, La. The first thing which attracted my attention as I stood a little apart from the crowd was the presence of four or five young men, erect and manly looking dressed in military uniform of light grey. By a happy chance I had an opportunity to become acquainted with one of them as I was on my way to the Veranda hotel a few hundred yards distant. From him I learned they were students of the University of Louisiana and had been to the train to meet friends returning from Mardi Gras, at New Orleans. When he learned that I also was a student at a State University he very cordially invited me to come and visit them at the University during my stay in the city. I accepted the invitation and appointed the next afternoon as the time. The city of Baton Rouge reminds me in many respects of Lawrence. Like Lawrence it is situated on a river, compared with which however the Kaw is a mere creek. The population is about the same in number, but composed of very different elements. Spaniards, Italian, French, Creoles, negroes with out number, and once and in a while a stray Yankee, form a good portion of the population. The streets are beautifully shaded and there is an air of quiet and repose about the town that caused me to think of Lawrence. Lawrence in June is Baton Rouge in February. While we in Kansas are enjoying the pleasing spectacle of watching the thermometers go down below zero they are enjoying the balmiest of weather. Roses in bloom, grass knee high and all nature robed in the beauty of early spring. It was on such a day as this I went to visit the University of Louisiana. Upon my left as I entered the campus, rolled the Mississippi, then at the height of the spring floods, a mile and a half wide, calm and peaceful yet moving onward to the sea with a majestic irresistable sweep. In front and upon my right, surrounded by stately oaks and cypress and the incomparable magnolias, draped with long festoons of Spanish moss, stood the buildings of the State University of Louisiana. There is one peculiarity of architecture in the South that attracts the attention of the northern man when he first goes there and that is the immense columns or pillars which support the verandas of almost all buildings, public and private. The columns are generally covered with whitewash which at a distance makes the columns appear like marble. Hercules. In one portion of the campus were the residences of several of the faculty and scattered here and there were the lecture halls, dormitories, laboratory, chemistry building, fraternity halls etc. One thing somewhat different from the K. S. U. were the fraternity halls. They were placed in secluded, quiet portions of the campus so that the members, I suppose, would not be disturbed while discussing affairs of state, by the overweening curiosity of some "barb." The University buildings were no exception as almost every one of them were surrounded by wide porches supported by pillars seemingly as strong as the pillars of As I advanced and passed the buildings which obstructed the view in front, I suddenly came upon four companies of students armed with repeating rifles, engaged in drilling. The University of Louisiana is conducted on strictly military principles. Every student is compelled to wear a uniform and drill an hour or more every day. They rise by bugle call, and form in line and march to their meals in companies. They eat in the basement of the dormitories, and like the disciples of old "have things in common" at the table. No such visions of feast, such as disturb the rest of K. S. U. students when dreaming of Sunday club dinners, ever intrude themselves on the minds of students of the State University of Louisiana. But every want is provided by the paternal care of the Faculty, who see that no one ever dies of dyspepsia. The posts of honor in the University are the positions of officers of the military companies. The positions are determined by the results of the examination. The highest offices of course going to the students standing highest in the class. No student is allowed to leave the grounds without a permit from headquarters. Every infringement of the rules is rigidly punished. As I stood watching the companies go through the manual of arms, my acquaintances of the previous day recognized me and after the drill was over, took me around and introduced me to a number of the boys. We then went over some of the buildings, fraternity halls and other places of interest. The buildings are as a rule rather old, and do not compare in either size or architecture to our University. After looking over the buildings and strolling around the compas, we finally went to one of the boy's rooms in one of the dormitories, where after arranging themselves around the room in various picturesque attitudes, on chairs, beds and floor, each one having filled a cob pipe, (which article it seems the majority of the students carried.) from the contents of a certain suspicious looking sack, bearing the seal of North Carolina, they demanded that I tell them something of K. S. U. Of course I willingly complied. I mentioned our magnificent buildings, our libraries, our laboratories, our professors, the state of college politics, our journalistic feats, and also that we had in attendance at our school last year over one hundred and thirty girls. This last statement seemed to surprise them more than anything I had said. One of them could not contain his astonishment, and burst forth: "Great Scott boys, what could we do if we had girls here." "Why I tell you we would not know how to conduct ourselves." "You see we are kept down so close during the week, and have no time for relaxation except a Saturday afternoon like this, that we just have to raise Cain once in a while to balance matters. Now there is Shorty over there." pointing to a short, heavy set fellow across the room, "who is so susceptible to the charms of the ladies, that he gets a permit twice a week to go up town and see his aunt. And I am sure it would have a bad effect if he was daily in the presence of the ladies." By this time the room was full of smoke as each one had pulled vigorously on his cob pipe during our talk, and as it was almost night I bade the students adieu and returned to the city, having spent a profitable and pleasant afternoon.

The program of November 21 was very well rendered with the exception of one or two absentees. Mrs. Brown's paper on "Famous Women Lawyers," was especially interesting. It requires no little skill to produce an interesting paper on a biographical subject. The club appreciates her talent and is glad to claim her as one of its members. The recitations in the law department will continue right along through the Thanksgiving vacation. The department has decided that there is so much work to be done during the year that it can not afford to lose the time. Prof. Green had charge of both Junior and Senior recitations several days last week, Dr. Summerfield having to attend court, to assist the county attorney, Mr. Nevison, in the prosecution of a case. Mr. Jarvis Blume, a very prominent student of the Law department, has been absent from the recitations during the past week on account of sickness, but we are glad to state that she is able to be with us again. Mr. W. E. Railsback was also absent several days on account of sickness. The Kent club was not as well attended last meeting as we should like to see. The students should not neglect their duties on account of wanting to attend the District Court. Sigma Nu. The Sigma Nu's very pleasantly entertained their lady friends last Friday evening. After a reception at their hall, an elegant supper was served by Miss Cora E. Gill, after which the time was spent in dancing and other amusements until a late hour. Estate 950. 950. 950.

Hudson and Coleman were pretty badly jamed up in the foot ball game, but will soon be ready for another turn with Baker. The Geology class have not been able to have their supplemental views in a dark room yet, as the dynamo cannot be run on account of the repairs at the shop. Brown, Merrill and Springer set the walking pace to Baldwin and back last Saturday. It is said that they lowered the trains time between Lawrence and Baldwin. Miss Oliver begins her Livy class promptly at the second bell and then dismisses it at her leisure after the ringing of the second bell again. That is right, give it to the Freshies! It was anyway to get there, going to Baldwin last Saturday. About forty took the "Jerkwater," some rode down on their Cycles, some drove down, some rode horse-back and last but not least in execution, some walked. The new boiler will soon be in its place at the machine shops. This will give us one 60 in. and two 48 in. boilers for heating purposes, and a 48 in. boiler to run the engine.

Regent Gleed was in the city Monday—suppose he was down to seet hat the boys were all supplied with turkey. Merril and Springer willpuads the vacation in trying to work up a serenade that will be pleasing to Ringer's ears. Miss Lotte Hopkins, of this city and her friend, Miss Pulma Edmiston, of Richview, Ill., visited the University Monday afternoon. The Glee club will go to Endora Saturday evening to give their first public concert. The boys look fine in their new mortar boards and gowns. "My hands, oh my hands," she said. And no wonder for she had not yet learned that it is Raymond's Cream of Roses that softens, heals and whitens the hands. Now that the foot ball fever is raging, it will be necessary to prepare for kicks, knocks and bruises. Arnica Witch Hazel and salves at Raymond's Drug Store in great abundance and fair prices. Miss Marie Park will leave this week to take a position as instructor in music in a girls' boarding school at Oswego, Kan. Miss Park is a good musician and will hold such a position creditably.

Hill, a graduate of last year who entered Harvard this fall, writes that upon entering to take a second degree, he applied to Prof. Hart for work in American History. He was asked what had been his previous work, and replied that he had taken a course in American History at the State University of Kansas. "Then," said Prof. Hart, "Harvard has nothing farther to offer you." This exceedingly high compliment is received with no small degree of satisfaction by the friends of the University, and the acknowledgment that the leading educational institution in Kansas is an equal of Harvard, will have a great tendency to further promote its interests—Lawrence Record.
