Boating is getting to be about the thing. Nearly every evening there are boating parties and every one seems to take advantage of the fine boating that Lawrence is blessed with.

A very pleasant time was had by a number of West Lawrence young people last Monday night. The party went up the river where they held a delightful picnic. The girls prepared a dainty lunch while the boys gamboled on the green, and mandolin music added greatly to the pleasure of the occasion. The boating was perfect and they enjoyed themselves just as West Lawrence people always do—to a finish. Those in the party were. Will Spencer and Miss Hadley, Will Snow and Miss Buckingham, Mr. Bennett and Miss Monroe, Mr. Brown and Miss Webber, Mr. Johnson and Miss Tisdale, Mr. Neely and Miss Bennett, Mr. Lewis and Miss Webster, Mr. Wever and Miss Harrison.

This evening there will be a grand symposium of the Science and Philological Clubs in room No. 2 at 8 o'clock. A partial program is as follows:
On the Relation of Science to poetry, E. E. Slosson.
Folk Lore of Animals, Gertrude Crotty.
Greek Architecture, M. A. Barber.
Scientific and Philological Notes. Hoi Polloi and Laboratories. Everybody is invited.
The Athletic Grounds Again.
A formal proposition has been made to the athletic association for the purchase of new grounds. This time it is from Governor Robinson, who has already made so many liberal gifts te the University, and who now offers a very good bargain to the association. The site in question is just north and adjoining what is known as the Ridenour and Baker land, and is almost as accessible from the business part of the city as the Massachusetts street grounds. Situated on Louisiana street, but a short distance from the University, they offer many advantages over any ground yet proposed. The land is almost level and but a comparatively small amount will have to be expended in clearing, grading, etc. Another advantage is the room that will be available for all sports, there being room enough for a foot ball tract, two ball grounds and several tennis courts, besides running courses, etc. This proposition, which is favored by those who are best posted on the subject, will be put before the student body for action before long and every one should be ready to express an opinion upon the matter. The New York Evening Post of a recent date contains the statement that General McCook has lately subscribed one thousand dollars to the athletic association of K. S. U., thus making his gift in all twenty-five hundred dollars. This is a sample of the friends K, S. U. wants and General McCook may rest assured that hic generous present to a worthy cause is fully appreciated by the faculty, students and friends of K. S. U.
The University Museums
[From the Mushroom.]
o the Editor:
To the Editor:
Nor do many students resort frequently to these places. One may—many do—go through the University without having visited them more than a dozen times and then with little benefit. They might, it is true, have a guide any day who would unlock the doors for them and tell them some things that could be depended on and many things that could not.
I have often wondered on what grounds the museums belonging to the University are maintained; whether for the use of students or the delight of visitors. In either case the amount of money expend ed seems wholly out of proportion to the good accomplished. The number of special students in the department of Natural History is very small, and most of those take such work that the museums are of little value to them. The average zoology class is benefitted very little by the collection two stories above them; and the same is true of geology classes. My zoology class went to the museum only two or three times and then only after the five minute bell had rung. My geology class had about that same experience in the museum, and perhaps during the course a hundred specimens were examined by the class. These specimens, by the way, did not belong to the museum except in rare instances.
Here is something wrong and i would suigest a remedy. Of the eight professors and assistants in Snow Hall let details be made for
As for visitors, I would also make a suggestion for their treatment. Let the museums be open on Sunday when busy people of the city are free for a few hours. There are people in Lawrence who are very much interested in what the museums contain, but who are too busy to visit the the University on week days, and if they did it would hardly pay them for their pains, for they are hurried through the collections by poorly informed and poorly paid guides who are in a hurry to get back to their studies. No reflection is intended upon the present guides. They are above the average, and do twice the work they are paid for doing. But the Freshmen are not supposed to have that technical knowledge of geology and biology possessed by the really valuable guide.
What has been said about the Natural History museum applies in most particulars to the classical museum. The professors of the dead languages might infuse some life into them as well as into their students by making more use of the means at hand.
Now classical students ought to know something about this collection as well. It is not enough to say that the professors in charge will answer any question asked. Under present circumstances one doesn't feel like asking questions. If he did, he knows so little about the subject that he doesn't know what to ask. The figures are to him only blocks of marble or plaster; and half the students in the University don't know which.
No. 32.
certain hours on stated days of the week, whose business it will be to tell all, who are inclined to listen, what is in the museum. Let short lectures be given, not necessarily dry scientific lectures—but on methods of collecting, where this or that was found, what it signifies, the peculiarities of that animal and so on.
Of course these suggestions will not be heeded. Students will continue to go through the University without knowing anything about the museums; visitors will continue to be hurried through them on week days and locked out of them on Sundays; and our magnificent collections will continue to do only a fraction of the good they might do.
More could be done in this way to arouse an interest in natural history than any amount of display goods that have no meaning can ever do.

Respectfully,
COPPER AND BABBETT,
Managers
Who does not feel proud of our University? Who doubts that she stands in the front rank of educational institutions in our country? When professors are tempted, quoted and consulted as ours have been of late all our doubts should vanish. Not long ago Prof. J. H. Canfield was offered the presidency of a state institution with twice the salary he was getting here; Prof. Blackmar is continually quoted as authority on social questions; Prof. Blake is counted among the greatest living scientists. Prof. Dyche has no rival as a taxidermist, and so all through the faculty we have men of recognized ability. Just this week Prof. Carruth received a communication from Prof. A. N. Van Daell, professor of German at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, asking his assistance in getting out a series of French and German text books which are to be published by Ginn & Co. Prof. Bocher, professor of French at Yale, is also going to take part in the work. To be associated with such men as these, and to get out text books for the most careful and conservative publishing house in America is certainly a great honor. Prof. Carruth has now in manuscript a text on Luther's prose and is at work on a German composition text book. Verily, great is K. S. U.
By a law of the state all Kansas students are admitted to the University free of all tuition. What the object of such a law was we do not know. If it was to increase the attendance it has not been ac complished. Nor has the law, in most cases, diminished the expenses of students who are now attending the University. We do not believe in such free education. Students would better appreciate education if they had to pay something for it. Five or ten dollars tuition would not lessen the attendance or make students any poorer. Now we would all like vory much to have a library and gymnasium building. Why not bring back the old custom of paying tuition and apply the fund thus obtained to such a building? It would make students feel that they had a personal interest in the University. In four or five years a twenty-five thousand dollar building could be erected from tuition fees alone and the tax payers of Kansas could not enter a word of complaint.
THE useless fifth wheel to a wagon is also useless by itself.
The following is a dialogue which we overheard between Si Chology and Jim Nasties. We were deeply absorbed in the question of the relation of mind to body and hailed with delight the opportunity of getting some light on the subject. The question the two were discussing was that of modern education, and they were having a friendly quarrel as to which was receiving the greater recognition.
Jim.—I know one thing. I am gaining in popularity every year and create more excitement than you ever dreamed of creating.
Si—Yes, I yield to you in the question of excitement. Acquaintance with me arouses no particular enthusiasm, and yet you can not deny that my friendships are more fruitful and enduring than yours.
Jim. -I suppose you are right, but there are also many who thoroughly despise you.
Si.—That is because they can not appreciate me. I am somewhat mysterious and reserved. I do not unfold all the secrets of my being on first acquaintance and therefore people grow impatient with me.
Jim-That is just what I like about you, Si, and I am truly glad that we formed our friendship when we did. To make life a success men must deal with both of us and our harmony will insure their systematic development.
Si.—I like your vivacity and frankness and so we are perfectly agreed.
Those students who are always ready to break out into an insinuating giggle whenever a certain member of the class is called on to recite might learn a lesson from the story of the calf and the ass. It was the invariable habit of the ass to bray at everything the calf tried to do, as much as to say, he could do it much better. One day the farmer set on the gate post a can of dynamite with which he intended to blow out some stumps. The calf, seeing the can, playfully tried to kick it off, but could not reach it. The ass, of course again brayed at the calf's attempt, and seemed anxious to show how easily he could kick the can. So the calf gambled away and the ass with his ears proudly pricked up, started for the post and firmly kicked the can. Alas, poor ass! Nothing of him but his ears could be found and these the farmer nailed to the barn as a warning to all presumptuous asses. You never can tell when the professor has set a can of dynamite on the gate post.
THE National Educational Association is to hold its next convention at Toronto, Canada, from the 14th to the 17th of July. The people of Toronto are already preparing for the great event and expect to entertain fifteen thousand visitors. There are to be issued soon 100,000 24-page programs, the postage on which alone will be $1,000. Many prominent educationists, some from England and
Africa, are to be present and take part.
There are many "nesses" but the most attractive ornaments of character are kindness on the inside and neatness on the outside.

A religiously inclined student was found poring over a Bible one day and industriously making notes. After several hours he laid down the book with a sigh of relief.

It contained the following: Thou shalt not pass.—Numb. xx:18. Suffer not a man to pass.—Judges iii:28. The wicked shall no more pass.—Nahum i:15. Neither doth any son of man pass.—Jeremiah i:44.

The Triangular League.
The following persons composed the delegates of the different colleges at the Triangular League meeting in this city Tuesday: Washburn, Al Tucker and Dana McVicar; Baker, Sam McRoberts and M. E. Rice; K. S. U., R.R. Whitman and Jus D. Bowersock.
The first business before the meeting was the election of officers, which resulted as rollows: President, R. R. Whitman, K. S. U.; secretary, M. E. Rice, Baker; treasurer, Dana McVicar, Washburn. The constitution was formally adopted and business of a minor nature transacted. The meetings of the league were permanently fixed at Lawrence as the most accessible place for all the colleges represented, and the meetings are to be held twice a year—the first Monday in October,at which time officers are to be elected, and the first Monday in March. A pennant will be provided for the College that takes off the season's honors, and everything points to the fact that the league will be in every way a success. The spirit of college rivalry seems subservient to the desire of all for an encouragement of all athletics and the utmost good feeling and harmony was felt by all the delegates. Foot bail and tennis are to be the fall games, while base ball will occupy the spring season.
Official umpires were appointed as follows: A. G. Canfield and Macken of Lansing, Riates of R
as follows: A. G. Canfield and Mackey of Lawrence; Rice of Baker, and Tucker of Washburn. The choice of umpires seems to be peculiarly happy, and the games will undoubtedly be conducted in a manner fair and satisfactory to all. The following is the schedule of base ball games this spring.

Annie Abbott's Performance.
The performance of Annie Abbott at the opera house yesterday evening was one of those events which no one should miss seeing. Whether its electricity, magnetism, odic force or what not, it is indisputably a power not dependent on any mechanical agency, and in no way tainted with fraud.
She is a scientific marvel, who will be for a long time an enigma to the wise men of our generation. By the mere "laying on of hands" she can withstand the efforts of strong men without any muscular action on her part. How she does it nobody knows, not even the little lady herself. Holding a billiard cue on her hands without grasping it, no strength could push it away from her; and a chair upon which men were piled until it finally broke kown with their weight was easily lifted from the floor by her mere touch.
MUSIC NOTES.
Miss May Neally has gone to Emporia. She will resume her studies again next fall.
Miss Mamie Berry spent the vacation at her home in Waterville.
Miss Daisy Orten looked lovely in the Grecian costume she wore in "Midsummer Night's Dream."
"I can't go Schubert," exclaimed Mrs. Devilshoof at the concert.
"But you can go Chopin every day in the week," retorted her husband.
The lecture given by Prof. Penny on Wednesday afternoon was highly appreciated by those in attendance.
Dr. Von Bulow ridiculed the idea of a composer going beyond the metier, and said that Schumann was as incapable of judging an opera as Rossini was of judging a symphony.
When some one asked Mozart to state what constituted a good piano forte player he touched his fingers, his forehead and his breast; thereby indicating that the piano forte player needs brains, feeling and dexterity of hand.
Hope! What a blessing! The power of comparing our actual with our possible state, how it helps us forward to new acquisitions, ever promising, sometimes, relief from suffering, or increase of happiness! The miseries of poverty, of sickness, of death, would, without hope, be unsupportable.

Prof. Frank W. Blackmar has finished his list of optionals for next year, and the improvements in this department will be noticed. The addition of a course in Journalism is an entirely new future and bids fair to be very popular. We would suggest that the men who hustle on the University newspspers next year be given credit for their work This is customary in nearly all eastern institutions, and any one who has ever been on a college paper knows that the work and time required is equal to any study in the University. The list is as follows:

advantage they were much mistaken as Kinscy proved an enigma to them.
Sugarell was the shooting end of the opposing battery and was effective throughout considering the poor support he received.
Those interested are more than pleased with the showing our boys have made thus far. The material we have now in view will with hard and constant practice put up a game that will make Baker and Washburn play ball if they expect to be more than an easy mark for K. S.U.
Our battery thus far has been very weak and must be improved. This may be best effected by a series of practice games. Manager Bowersock should exert himself to arrange as many games as possible before beginning the triple league series.

Blue Print Solution.
So many of the students are making blue prints from negatives that there has been a great demand for a good formula. The following from the Scientific American has been tried and found very successful:
SOLUTION NO.1.
Patassium ferricyanide—16 grs.
Water—120 c. g.
SOLUTION NO.2.
Citrate of iron and amonia, 24 grains.
Use two parts of No.1 with one part of No.2. Apply to the paper with a sponge or piece of cotton. The solutions should be made up just before using, as they do not keep well. Use dilute solution of hydrochloric acid for intensifying and dilute solution of ammonia for reducing.
Just the thing for Summer Fancy Vests; see our bargains in that line. Crain's & Urbansky, the Boston Square Dealing Clothiers, 738 Massachusetts street.

The works of watches are now plated with palladium, which is a whiter, lighter and more fusible metal than platinum. About one-seventeenth of a grain of palladium will, by electrical deposition, coat the works of an ordinary watch.
One of the most expensive features in the construction of electric railways has been the underground or return portion of the circuit, which consisted of large copper wires laid in line with the truck. By a new device an electrical connection is made between each track rail and the earth in such a manner that the earth can be utilized in forming that return portion of the circuit.

Miss Neally Stevens' concert on Tuesday night wasfollowed by a reception given to her by the students in the Eldridge house parlors. The charm of the evening lay in the delightful talk she gave them of the time she spent in Europe completing her musical studies.
She will Proudly Represent our State at the Great Exposition.
K. S. U. AT CHICAGO.
If the people of Kansas decide that our state shall be represented at the Columbian exposition in '92 we have no hesitancy in saying that the most attractive feature of the display will be the University as she is there to be represented. You may wonder what the University has to show. If you should take a oep into Mr. Dyche's skeleton and mounting rooms you would see.
It was hinted to us that the professor was quietly preparing to make a display at the world's fair so we approachad him on the subject. We found that our information had been correct, and the professor kindly divulged to us some of the plans for the display which he expected to make. No department of the University is better suited for such a display than Professor Dyche's and with his skill and taste, we need have no misgivings as to the success of the undertaking.
It is said that if one had stopped five minutes at each exhibit at the centennial in 76 it would have required 160 years to go through the exposition. Of course the Columbian exposition is to be vastly greater than the centennial was, but Prof. Dyche is bound to make the people stow and wonder, and to our University shall be the glory.
The young ladies who sang in the Neally Stevens concert are to be congratulated on the manner in which they rendered their selections, and especially so when the shortness of time which they had for preparation is taken into consideration. In fact the music arrived but one or two days previous to the concert. They acquitted themselves with much credit to our University.
The display is to be entirely of mammals with nothing smaller than a wolf. The professor has now three men helping him, and expects to have mounted by October 92, 70 or 75 animals. These are to be placed in about fifteen groups in the most natural and attractive way. He has so far decided upon the following groups: Buffalalo, Antelope, Mountain Sheep, Goats, Moose, Elk, Muledeer, Virginian Dner, Black-tail deer, two of Rocky Mountain Lions—one of old males quarrelling over deer, and another of old female with young, Foxes, Timber wolves, Coyotes, two of Lynxes and two of Bear. We can not go into detail on the arrangement of the groups, but those which are already in the museum will give some idea of what they are to be.
We certainly should feel proud that we have such a man in our University.
May Day Exercises.
The class of '92 has been trying to make a reputation for itself for the last two years, and so determined to plant a May pole this year. So at midnight of April 30 a number of the Juniors climbed the hill with a pole forty feet long and planted it in front of the main building. The pole was wrapped with the class colors and surmounted with a large banner bearing the figures '92.
The hole was dug, the pole planted and the banner flung to the breeze about two o'clock in the morning, then, leaving two men to guard it the Juniors went home with the expectation of some lively times during the day.
There was some excitement about nine o'clock but the flag still floated proudly and the Juniors dispersed to their classes leaving two or three men on guard. But scarcely were the classes called when the Juniors on guard gave the prearranged signal that something was wrong and the whole class of '92 rushed from the recitation rooms in time to see the pole and flag come to the ground under a few well directed strokes of an axe in the hands of a sophomore.
The Juniors were not expecting this sophomoric attack, hence were unprepared to meet it. But this was only the beginning of the day's struggle. Immediately the Juniors and Freshmen combined and set to work to retrieve the loss of the May pole. A long and fierce struggle was had over the pole, Sophomores and Seniors trying to destroy it and the Juniors and Freshmen trying to save it; finally it was cut in pieces and burned.
Then the Juniors and Freshmen secured two flags and fastened them to the dome of the University. The Sophomores attempted to take them down, and finally succeeded, but the two men who took down the flags were imprisoned on top of the dome by the Freshmen. Thus matters stood at 6 o'clock in the evening. The battle had raged all day with slight intermission, and now the Sophomores made a last charge to release their comrades from the dome. Doctors were torn from their hinges, and finally by some venturesome leaps of the two imprisoned Sophomores they reached terra firma, and the struggle was over. The story of the finish is well told by the Lounger elsewhere in this issue. "Twas a glorious victory" for somebody.
A meeting was held monday and a second base ball nine organized. Prof.A.G.Canfield was elected manager, and Fesler was chosen captain. The object of this club is to afford practice and also develop new players for the first and regular University nine.

"Trial by Jury."
Next Thursday and Friday nights the students and people of Lawrence will have an opportunity to see one of the funniest plays that has ever been given in this city. The University Glee Club has been drilled on the music of this burlesque by Prof. Penny for three months, and Miss Brown is directing the acting part. The most comical interpretations have been put upon the play and it will be a continual laugh from the beginning to the end. The University Mandolin and Guitar club is to play the accompaniment. But this is less than half the program. A side-splitting minstrel part is going to be given by the best talent the city can afford. Minstrel songs, original jokes, contortions are to be some of the features. If you want to forget your trouble and laugh till your sides ache, go to hear the "Trial by Jury" and Minstrel show.
The Pi Plu Alumnae Entertain.
The Pi Phi Alumnae Entertain.
The many young ladies of the active chapter of Pi Beta Phi were the fortunate guests of their alumnae sisters Saturday afternoon at the home of Dr. Wilcox. The early part of the afternoon was spent in renewing old acquaintances and forming new ones. After the 6 o'clock luncheon followed a pleasant program of toasts responded to by representative members of each chapter. The remainder of the afternoon was devoted to some amusements peculiar to the fraternity.
The Pi Phis are to be congratulated on possessing so large and influential an alumnae chapter.

We feel slightly embarrassed by the tirade with which the Reporter of last week came down upon us. As we are not in the fray we will have to let our predecessor unload himself.
A professor asked his 'class to learn by heart as part of an examination, three pages of difficult Latin, and one of the students who feared a failure, killed himself. He thought suicide was easier to commit than Latin.
ALTHOUGH it might be somewhat embarassing to the chinch bug it would nevertheless be interesting to the public to have Chancellor Snow mount some of the pets and include them in Prof. Dyche's display at the world's fair.
The enthusiastic class spirit which prevailed last Friday was something new for the University. We do not remember that classes have ever been quite so distinctly separate. The May pole and the little ax did it all. It was a good thing and we all enjoyed it. It is just such episodes as those that make college life enjoyable and that will be the object of pleasant memories in the years to come.
UNIT 12.4 MODULE 1
We are always glad to hear of the success and promotion of alumni. We shall ever be ready to note the prominent places which our graduates are taking for it advertises our University. At the encampment of the G. A. R. at Hutchinson last week the S. of V's., also held an assembly, and in that body quite a number of K. S. U. men had conspicuous places. Captain W. Y. Morgan of Steele City, was elected
TOMORROW the first base ball game of the Triangular League will be played. As many of the students as possible should go to Topeka with our nine and rend the air with their cheers. It will encourage the boys. We believe the day will be ours. But if we are beaten let us take the defeat as gracefully as we can. By all means boys, be fair. Rather suffer defeat than bring reproach upon the University.
delegate to the national S. of V. encampment, and Captains E. C. Harbaugh, of Erie, and A.B. Callahan, of Topeka, were elected alter- dates. Webster of McPherson, is jury advocate, and Captain Grant Harrington of Hiawatha was chosen to the state staff with rank of colonel.
EVERY one has a natural desire to be entertained. So strong is this desire that in some people it completely overpowers all judgment and discretion as to the nature of the entertainment which they should encourage. Nothing does more toward the fulfillment of this desire than the stage and the platform, and yet no phase of our social life has a more ambiguous influence than the theatre, the lecture often being open to the same charge.
We say all hail to the play or lecture whose object it is to educate and elevate at the same time that it pleases, but there certainly ought to be some way of prohibiting the pernicious plays that are given all over our country.
Lawrence is particularly blessed in the character of its entertainments, notwithstanding the popular troupes and the lecturers with stale jokes, that occasionally afflict us. The reason for this is plain to see. This is a city of culture and refinement and the people are choice in their tastes and critical in their judgments. They demand entertainments of a high order and by the law of supply and demand get it. Were any one to ask us to account for this state of Lawrence society we would first of all point to the great institution on the hill. No one can doubt its influence. It has moulded public opinion in more ways than one. Our home talent entertainments under the successful direction of such artists as Miss Brown, Miss Hutchings and Prof. Penny are also doing no small part in forming public taste. Lawrence has a reputation for home entertainments and it deserves it. Little chance for "snide" shows here. The time is coming when it will be so everywhere.
By far the most ludicrous sight we have seen lately is the spectacle the Washburn Reporter is making of itself. Through its own fool-hardiness and the shortcomings of its supporters, it had, figuratively speeking, committed suicide, but the embalmer seems to have done a poor job. After we had preached its funeral sermon the elements seem to have gotten in their work on its emaciated carcas and so swollen its putrescent trunk that even the porcine tegument covering that mass of filth could not stand the strain, and when it burst there was directed toward us a spray of nastiness that could have sprung from no other source. We are very sorry to have to deal with so loathsome an object, and in doing so we hold our skirts well up so as not to come in contact with anything so defiling. We do not desire to waste
space in giving this mongrel cur undue prominence, but we owe it to our readers and the college newspaper world in particular to explain what has caused this boil on the neck of humanity to burst and try to soil our raiment. The relations existing between those two papers haev always been friendly until the Reporter was bought up by an outsider and hired to make an attack on us. This it did in a very ungentlemanly and at the same time weak and pointless article, which was a direct contradiction of what it had said the week before. This appeared rather strange and inconsistent to us, and we said so in a way that completely muzzled this canine's whining jowl. A punch under the ribs by College Life, and an exposure of plagiarism by its orator seems to have removed the period of dog days and now instead of a muzzle for the protection of humanity it has a can tied to its tail, and the undignified and rapid manner in which it is running from place to place and hunting some kennel in which it hide its slinking frame is truly pitiful. That Washburn's Orator stands convicted after a fair trial no one doubts, and if anything more were needed for proof we would refer you to the action of the faculty. The Reporter has the distemper and a bone would be no inducement to it, but to the students of Washburn College we would say that we are as sorry as you are, that this mud can not be cleaned from your garments and only hope that you may gain the high position you have heretofore occupied. They say every dog has his day, but if the Reporter does not take some condition powders pretty soon we are afraid that the old adage will prove false. Alas! alas!
There is something new under the sun, and K. S. U. is the institution which introduced it. Kansas always leads, and the University is throbbing with the spirit of progress. There has just been added to our curriculum a course on "The Status of Women in the United States. The course will be offered in Prof. J.H. Canfield's department of American History and Civics and will be given the second term of each year. The primary object of this course, for which Prof. Canfield has been working for several years, is not to provoke comment and gain notoriety, but to give all who wish it an opportunity to study this subject of growing importance. The course will include a brief review of the condition and the recognition of women to 1550; then will follow a more particular study of her influence with special reference to the beginning of our own history. The study of the progress of women in America will end the course. It is to be made a three-fifths study at first and afterwards a full study. We predict that it will become a popular course.

We are uncompromisingly opposed to making classes in the University an audience for any kind of an advertisement, but if their time is to be taken for any announcement let University affairs have precedence. It certainly is not fair to discriminate against the University in favor of outside undertakings. Let conflicting excursions take care of themselves and do not take the time of classes in advertising either of them.

PARIS, April, 1891.
We are having our spring vacation and have taken advantage of the break in our work to visit Paris. On Monday I started for Paris and came as far as Giessen, not far from Cassel, and of interest to me as the seat of the university where Liebig spent many years of his life before going to Munich. I spent the night at Giessen, and took the cars next day down the beautiful valley of the Lahn to the Rhine at Coblenz, then up the Moselle to Trier. I was much interested in this renowned wine producing district. The Weinberge surpass even those of the most favored portions of the Rhine in their extent and in the inaccessibility of the hills and cliffs upon which the vine is planted. We stopped for two hours at Metz and I was enabled to get a hurried view of the extensive fortifications of this place. Our baggage was very superficially examined at the frontier; indeed my valise was not opened at all. The rooms occupied by Brooks and myself are small, but very conveniently located, and we only use them for sleeping purposes. The weather has been simply vile since my arrival; every day we have had either snow or rain. We have spent some evenings at Mrs. Canfield's, but they live in another part of the city fully three miles from where we are. The next time I visit Paris I shall avoid the early spring. As a consequence however of our being compelled to keep moving to keep warm. We have been over nearly the whole city, we have walked the lengths of all the principle boulevards and streets, wandered for miles along the Seine, and visited and climbed all the principle monuments. We have spent several days among the collections of the Louvand had a look at the Venus de Milo, Murillo's Immaculate Conception, the Regent Diamond, etc. I have especially enjoyed the collections in the Conservatories des Arts and in the Jardin des Plantes. The former are very extensive and extremely interesting to a student of Science. We have been in the vicinity of the Eifel Tower several times and a few days ago, between showers, went to the summit. The view is certainly wonderful. Paris itself seems quite a small place al-

all
most at our feet. The tower looms up away above everything in the city, and can be seen from any of the open squares anywhere in Paris. We have visited all the principle parks and public buildings, heard Faust at the Grand Opera House, and walked through several miles of passages lined with human bones in the Catacombs. Yesterday I had the satisfaction of hearing Berthlot the chemist Secretaire perpetuel de l'academie de Science lecture. I had a seat within twenty feet of him and was surprised at the small attendance at the lecture. The lecture room is small and the hearers numbered not more than fifteen. Berthelot is a man I should guess sixty years of age, shaven excepting a moustache, somewhat bald,rather weak voiced,very round shouldered, and rather careless in his dress. As the first chemist, and in the first institution in France, his lectures are slimly attended compared with those of Hoffman in Berlin.
In many respects I like this place better than Berlin. It is more beautiful and more like an American city, the people are mora polite to strangers and all museums and public monuments are free. I expect to return to Berlin to complete my work in the laboratory there.
Sincerely,
E. C. FRANKLIN.
LEGAL NOTES.
Dr. Boles visited the Junior recitation Tuesday morning.
Mr. E. Q. Stillwell returned Monday to resume his studies.
The Kent club received an elegant life-sized photo of Wm. M. Everetts, which they have ordered framed to hang in the library.
Prof. Green did not meet his classes Monday and Tuesday on account of having to attend the district court to take care of the Riley Brown forgery case. Mr.Foster presided in his absence.
The following officers were elected at the last meeting of the Kent club: President, Mr. Gleam; vice president, S. P. Ridings; secretary, W. E.Railback; treasurer, J. E. Blume; ex-committee, Price and Turner; sergeant at arms, D. H. Wilson.
Bruno Hobbs, class of '89, now a member of the well known law firm of Mills, Wells & Hobbs, of Kansas City, Kansas, lectured before the law department, Friday, May 1, on the subject of "corporations." He was very clear and concise in his treatment of the subject, and all who heard him expressed themselves as greatly benefitted thereby. Prof. Green feels very proud of Mr. Hobbs as a representative of K. S. U., and we feel safe in predicting a bright future for him.
The Senior law class has decided to have its class exercises June 3, at 8 o'clock p. m. The speakers chosen for the occasion are Mrs. Brown, Messrs. Foster, Finical, Palm, Townsend, and McLaughlin. The program will appear as soon as the speakers have selected their subjects and other necessary arrangements have been made.
Judge Thacher lectured to the Junior and Senior law classes Monday on the subject of "Law Practice" It is needless to state the good qualities of the lecture as the mere fact that it was delivered by Judge Thacher goes farther in establishing them than any compliment we could possibly pay to it. The members of the law department would feel highly gratified if arrangements could be made for a series of lectures by the distinguished judge.
Joint Meeting.
Language and Science. A strange mixture? Not at all! The very interesting joint session of the Philological and Science clubs last Friday night showed that there need be no clashing between Language and Science. Dr. Wilcox presided, Mr. Slosson read a paper on the "Relation of Science to poetry.' He showed that the common idea that science destroyed the sense of beauty and sentiment was a mistaken one. Poets like Tennyson have successfully woven scientific truth into their poetry. A paper on "Animal Folk Lore" by Miss Gertrude Crotty, revealed many interesting superstitions which people have concerning animals, especially cats and dogs. The paper provoked quite a discussion on supervision in general. Prof. Miller said if one would wash behind one's ears every morning one would never have the tooth ache. Nearly all the audience confessed to have some superstition.
Mr. M. A. Barber very ably discussed the "Origin of Gothic Architecture." The program was enjoyed by all present.

An Answer.
To the Editor of the Courier:
Your correspondent, V, offers a number of criticisms and suggestions concerning the management of the University museums, some of which are pertinent, others not. I quite agree with him that the museums should be more freely accessible, to both the students and the public, I should, also, be very glad to see them opened Sunday afternoons, for the benefit of those who cannot visit them at other times. On the other hand, I differ with him very strongly on the subject of guides. So far from making guides of the professors, I would dispense with those we now have. Our museum is the only one with which I am acquainted that enjoys the luxury of guides. I certainly would acknowledge my own unfitness to act as a guide through the different departments, and would not deem it just to expect a greater fitness on the part of a student. Your correspondent, and, with him, probably many others, are naturally impatient that so little information can be obtained of much of the rich material now in the cases. But, the student or visitor should bear in mind that the formation of a museum is a work of years, and ours is very young. Many will hardly think it possible, that the museum of Yale college, except in the branches of mineralogy, marine invertebrates, and skeletons, has less material accessible to the student than do we here; or at least such was the case the last time I was in the museum. Very much has been done here in the accumulation and preparation of material; but, there still remains much to do in making that material most serviceable to the University and the public. It is, perhaps, in the geological department that the need is most apparent. As soon as possible, how ever, systematic classification, labels, descriptions and illustrations will make clear all that the reasonable visitor will ask for.
As regards the use of the museum in class instruction, I think your correspondent will admit that his ten weeks course in geology, the most extensive of the natural science, would not have permitted a very exhaustive study of the museum during recitation hours.
The museums are for instruction, and, as such, they require study; he who expects to have all his knowledge pumped into him is of no use there,—or elsewhere. To make
pyblic showmen of the professors would hardly comport with the dignity of a great institution.
S. W. WILLISTON.
Boys will be Boys.
From Monday's Journal:
The Louinger firmly believes in, and usually acts upon, the old adage "It is better to be last at a feast rather than the first at a fray." Not that he is always the last at a feast either, as many of the University boys can testify who have kindly invited him on more than one occasion. But last Friday, being a lucky day; it so chanced, it just so happened, happened, you know, that he did find himself at the last of a fray. It was
"At the close of the day, when the ham- let is still."
But when the Sophomore and Junior classes were "just rushing" each other. There at the foot of the stairway leading down from the top of North Dome, the fray was fast and furious at the finish. It was a "well fought field" through a pass narrower than that of Thermopylae. Possibly the Lousager may have imagined he was there on a "mission" to "gather up the wounded and lay away the dead." But he was agreeably disappointed. As the Hibernian remarked, it was a tale of "love, murder, and nobody kilt."
Seriously, the Louinger was exceedingly gratified to witness a "struggle of classes" maintained so stoutly but in high good humor, and ending so peacefully. He witnessed a vigorous conflict—but not one angry blow; he saw many flushed faces—but not one distorted with rage or passion; he heard some boisterous voices—but not one single oath, not even an unkind word. Amid all their excitement these students of Kansas University, whether Juniors or Sophomores,—as the Louinger is happy to testify—failed not to remember that they all belonged to the class of gentlemen. No hazy—or hazing—characters participated. The louenger was almost tempted to exclaim with the poet—
And my locks not turning gray.
The latest use for vaseline is to soften the uppers of patent leather shoes. It is said to be excellent. Raymond is selling lots of it for that purpose.
"I love to look on a scene like this
Of wild and careless play.
And I almost feel that I am not old
And I almost feel that I am not old
and my locks not turning gray."

LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MAY 15, 1891.
The First of the Triangular Games Between Washburn and K. S. U. Results in a Score of 8 to 7 in Favor of the Latter.
It was a jolly crowd of students that made up the excursion to Topeka last Saturday to attend the first of the triangular base ball games between K. S. U. and Washburn. About seventy five students were in line when the procession marched from the Santa Fe depot in Topeka, down 5th and up Kansas avenue and it is putting it very mild to say that they attracted a great deal of attention. At almost every corner the University yell was given and experience has taught Topeka people what that yell means. At the National the crowd disbanded and soon the wearers of the yellow and blue were scattered all over the city, to be called together at 1:20 in order to proceed to Washburn college in a body.
The game from this on up to the sixth inning resulted in nothing remarkable, with the exception of some wretched in-field work on both sides. At the beginning of the sixth the score stood 6 to 1 in Kansas University's favor, but after the most exciting inning of the game the score was tied. This was brought about by numerous errors by the Kansas Universitys and a
The game was called at 2:30 and it seemed that there were more students representing K. S. U. than Washburn. From first to last the game was marked by the gentlemanly and good natured way in which it was carried on, and the general good feeling manifested by every one. Mr. Rice, of Baker, was the ampire and throughout the entire game gave general satisfaction. The following are the nines:
State University, Washburn,
Kinzie Pitcher Tucker
Sherman Catcher Saltillan
Hogg Short stop Mohler
Simmona First base McVear
Craeford Second Base Guild
Harvey Left field Miller
Fessler Third base Stors
Smith Center field Mercer
Morse Light field Wellding
The State University boys took the bat first, and through some very bad work all around on Washburn's part, succeeded in getting three men over the plate. This started the howlers, and the Kansas University boys' college yell was given every other minute. Washburn failed to score.
The Kansas University boys drew naught in the second. Washburn fared better, however, and placed one straight mark to her credit. In this inning Miller, for Washburn, made the star play of the day, by a beautiful running catch of a foul fly. The play was deservedly applauded.
two base hit by Sullivan and a beautiful three baser by Guild, both hits bringing in two men. The inning yielded five runs for the home club and Washburn's enthusiasts took a turn at howling.
From this on the game was most stubbornly contested. At the beginning of the seventh, Sherman, for the visitors, made first on an error of Mohler's and continued on to third on a lost ball, but was left there, the next two men being fielded out. In the Washburn half of the inning, Tucker went out at first from short, and Mohler did the very same thing. Weilding hit safe, stole second, but Sullivan's fly to center put the side out with no runs.
The eighth began with every one lost in excitement. Harvey, the colored player, earned first on a slow one to third. Fessler's fly to center was muffed, Harvey taking center on the play. Smith struck out, but Fessler came in on the throw down. Sherman went out on a fly. Score 8 to 6 in the visitors' favor.
Guild fer the Washburn's hit safely, stole second and took third on a passed ball. Miller went out at first. McVicar hit safe over first, bringing in Guild. McVicar was caught trying to steal second. Storrs was put on a fly. Score, 7 to 8 in the visitors' favor.
For Washburn Mohler was retired at first. Tucker was caught out and Mercer struck out, leaving the score 7 to 8.
Following is the score by innings:
State University . 3 0 1 0 2 0 0 2 0 -8
Washburn . . . 1 0 0 0 0 5 0 1 0 -7
LOCALS AND PERSONALS.
After the game every one went to see the tennis match which was played between McCabe and Bronson for Topeka and Whitman and Bowersock for K. S. U. Although our boys put up a stiff game, they were too many for us and the result was in their favor as follows, 6-3, 4-6 and 6-4. The singles were played between Bronson and Whitman which resulted in a victory for K. S. U., the score being 6-2 and 6-3.

From 7 o'clock until the train left at midnight the boys made things luminous around Topeka and many a weary policeman breathed a sigh of relief when the last joyful "enthusiast" boarded the train for the return trip. The run down was made in about two hours and although much fun was had in the car, nearly every one was so tired that they were indeed glad when Lawrence was reached.

They were presented to the department by Mrs. C.W.Babcock to whom the dean is under great obligations, as a number of the volumes are very hard to obtain in any other way.

It is needless to say that the professor kindly excused all those whose youthful nature could not withstand the huge posters, brass-band and the procession.
K. S. U. has won the first game of base ball. It was not a walk-away but a hard fought and honestly won game. We feel proud of our boys and are confident K. S. U. will come out ahead. One characteristic of the game at Wasoburn last Saturday was the enthusiasm which K.S.U boys carried with them. Nothing so helps a ball team as a large and confident delegation encouraging them with their yells. We were glad to hear of the general good will which prevailed at the game but we think the receiving club ought to show more thought and courtesy to the visiting one. There was no one at the depot to meet our fellows and they in a hap hazzard manner had to find their own way to the college grounds. The home club should see that a committee meet the visiting club and give them all needed directions and information. It would make the visiting nine feel more at ease. Let courtesy and good will mark all the games.

If, in the journey of life, we put in s before every mile it will not seem half so long.
THE thinker is the man who, like a sculptor, can take a crude idea and chisel it into thoughts of power and beauty.
THE only way, therefore, to try a piece of wit is to translate it into a different language. If it bears the test, you may pronounce it true, but if it vanishes in the experiment, you may conclude it to have been a pun —Addison.
THE Washburn Argo of last week treats in the fairest and most gentlemanly way the case of the plagiarism of Washburn's orator. It does not try to justify the crime or excuse its author but as a true college paper laments the unfortunate affair. The punishment of the faculty in depriving Mr. Myers of Commencement honors was a severe but just one, and his experience aught to be a lasting lesson to alloretical aspirants.
Vol. I, No. 1, of "Seminary. Notes" from the departments of History and Political Science has just appeared. Prof. J. H. Canfield and Blackman are the editors. The pamphlet gives a report of each of the papers read before the seminary by corresponding members and by students. On the last page is a selected list of valuable books for historical libraries with the price of each volume. The editorials are bright and characteristic of the energetic men at the head of these departments. The pamphlet is neat in appearance and the "Notes" are destined to become an important feature of our school.
We think the time has come to call a halt in the fracas between the Reporter and Courier. That college papers should allow themselves to be drawn into such debasing logowachy speaks ill of our civilization and we propose to stop. As to the original cause of the controversy, that has been adjusted long ago. The tri-angular league has been peaceably consummated, so let us bury the hatchet. As to the pagiarism of Washburn's orator the COURIER claims the originality of the discovery and all it asks is that it be not misrepresented. Amen.
BLESSINGS never come singly. Since we have commented on the generosity of Dr. Chase the library has received another beautiful gift in the form of a fine eight volume edition of Janssen's History of the German People. For this favor we have to thank the estimable Father Ennis. No one who knows Father Ennis will question his motive in this action. He is a warm friend of the University and a broad and cultured man. He has made many students indebted to him by the cheerful manner in which he alded them by information and by the use of his library. Such friends are friends indeed.
PRACTICE WHAT
PREACH.
To the Editor of the Courier.
It has often occurred to me that there is something very inconsistent in the theory and practice of many professors, in regard to the amount of time a student should take for recreation. Every professor advocates the practice of athletic sports, and gymnastic exercises, by the students as a class. They admit the college newspaper to be a good thing, and the work done upon it by students to be highly beneficial. They are agreed that the students should attend the various lectures, plays and concerts, of a high character, which favor the town. They favor the college Glee club, the literary societies, the fraternities and various other adjuncts of college life, as worthy of the support of the students.
However, if one, not acquainted with the sentiments of the professors in regard to those things, were to examine closely the amount of work required in the various departments, he would be apt to conclude that they favored nothing but studying night and day without stopping to feed. The student is required to take three full studies upon each of which he must put two hours of hard study. That much the professor claims the right to demand, and no more. No matter if you think you have learned a lesson well in less time, you must put the two hours on it, and you will have it better. This, with the time required for recitations, makes nine hours a day. Then, there must be added the time required for themes and forensics, which it is safe to estimate at one hour a day. Besides that, the student must take elocation which, if he practices it according to the requirement, will take another hour a day.
Here then, are eleven hours a day of hard work, and one would naturally think that would be sufficient; but such is not the case. It is a fact which I have verified by some experience, and much inquiry, that almost every professor in the University, manages, through some device, to impose at least an hour a day of extra work upon his pupils in each study. As an example of this practice, the members of the Sophomore English class last winter were required in a short space of time to read over one thousand pages of selections from the standard authors, and to write three critical essays upon them. This professor desired, every one of his pupils to spend an hour a day at least, in reading the standard authors; and, although he could not command it, continually lectured and goaded them to do it. Besides chat, he wished his pupils to commit to memory every day some passage from some great author; and still not satisfied, he wished them never to let a day pass without reading a chapter or two from the Bible.
At the same time this professor was urging his pupils to do extra
work to their utmost capacity in his department, he seemed unconscious of the fact that a professor in German, and many other professors, were forcing more than an hour a day of extra work upon some of those same pupils, and urging them with equal zeal to spend all their time doing extra work in this department.
Now at that rate students are asked to do fourteen hours a day of hard work, and if a student happens to live a half an hours walk from the University, as many do, there is another hour to be added to that. Surely there is no professor in the University who really expects pupils to put in fifteen hours a day, or anything like it, on university work. If they do, "what in the name of the immortal gods that are de,d,'' is the use of talking about a gymnasium, athletic grounds, literary societies, lectures, plays, or anything else that all agree should form a part of college life? If the professors do not expect the students to do the work, why do they require it of them. K.
STILL waters run deep. So runs the old adage and it certainly applies to the friendship which Dr. L. Chase, of Irving, Kans., has for the University. Dr. Chase is not a graduate of the University, and so far as known is under no obligation to it, yet the valuable gifts which he has made to the library show that he is one of the best friends we have. Last wenk Miss Watson received from him a box containing forty volumes of miscellaneous works. Among these is a series of French geographical books consisting of nine beautiful octavo volumes which cost seven dollars a volume. Farrow's Military Encyclopedia in three volumes is also included. Altogether Dr. Chase has given us 230 volumes, and yet he has never written a word in explanation of his favors. He sometimes sends a bill of lading and that is how we come to know that Dr. Chase is our benefactor. Long may he live.
It is generally supposed that students of a University have at least some conception of courtesy and propriety but we regret to say that there are exceptions. Everybody knows that representatives of a paper have free access to all occasions which they are expected to write up but a few of the collectors at the Senior-Faculty ball game last Friday allowed an insignificant dime to blind them entirely to this fact. We are willing to report University affairs but do not like to be compelled by untutored youths to pay for the privilege of doing so. Our local man is also of the same opinion. We believe that at every event connected with the University there ought to be present a representative of the college paper. It would not only make the paper man feel more at home b.t it would also bring the University nearer to the students. Our local man will be glad to be present at all doings if he is only invited. Remember this.
The Quarter-Centennial History of the University of Kansas.
The book to be issued in connection with the Quarter-Centennial celebration of the opening of the University of Kansas will contain, first, the address of President Angell, of Michigan University, to be delivered at Commencement; second, a chapter of University reminiscences by Prof. D. H. Robinson; third, a chapter on student life in the University, touching journalism, athletics, fraternities, etc., by Prof. A. G. Canfield; fourth, a history of the library by Miss C. M. Watson; fifth, a general historical sketch of the growth of the institution from its inception to the present by Prof. Wilson Sterling. The volume will contain full page portraits of Chancellor Olivor, Frazer, Marvin, Lippincott and Snow. It will be neatly bound in cloth with embossed title, will contain 200 pages and will be a valuable contribution to the history of the University, besides serving as a suitable memorial of the occasion. The proceeds from the sales of the book, after paying expenses of the issue, will be applied to the Athletic Association's gymnasium fund. Subscriptions should be sent to Prof. Wilson Sterling or Prof. A. G. Canfield, Lawrence, Kans. The book will be ready for delivery to subscribers at Commencement. The size of the edition will be determined by the number of advanced subscriptions. Send in your orders at once. The price of the volume will be $1.
WILSON STERLING.
Senior vs. Faculty.
The Senior-Faculty game of base ball which was played on the Massachusetts street grounds on Thursday a week ago resulted in a victory for the Seniors, the score being 17 to 13. The game was characterized by frequent "collisions" between the members of the faculty and the Seniors, the result of which is yet visible in the black eyes and crest fallen faces of some of the Seniors.
A new periodical has been issued from the departmenta of history and Sociology and American History and Civics. It is called the Seminary Notes and will be devoted to the interests of the seminary of Historical and Political Science. The first number contains short reviews of most of the papers read before the seminary during the past school year and consists of twenty four pages. In the future the numbers will be issued upon the two terms of the year and will be a great help and an interesting adjunct to the seminary work.
We are now making preparation for the Commencement number of the Courier and havv already taken quite a number of the Seniors lives. We expect to have several novel features in that number. We are always glad to receive suggestions, and hope our friends will be free to offer them.

The census returns show some figures that are not encouraging with regard to crime. Criminal statistics declare the fact that we have in the United States now thirteen more convicts to the million of population than there were in 1880. It would be interesting to know whether crime in the country is increasing at such a rate as this. If so, it is a bad lookout.
There is a doubt in the public mind whether Anna Dickinson is insane or not. But there is no doubt she is mad, thoroughly mad.
By the death of Dr. Joseph Leidy America lost her most eminent biologist. Especially in the field of paleontology was Leidy great, so great as to be counted the peer of any living investigator in that field in Europe. It is to be observed that he, too, was one of the poor boys who must rise by their own efforts. He was even obliged to pay for his own education. He had his living to earn all the time he was pursuing scientific researches. Thus he probably failed to reach the highest that his powers were capable of grasping. This is why we have so few purely scientific men in America Bread and butter work and study for the love of study will not pull well together. Of the younger American men of science who are left, Professor Elliott Cones, of the Smithsonian institution at Washington, will perhaps come the nearest to taking Dr. Leidy's place as a biologist.
The World's Fair on Sunday.
Before the first shovelful of earth was thrown out of the ground on which the Columbian exposition buildings are to stand, before it was certain that the fair would amount to anything at all, people began to dispute and claw one another over the question whether it should be open on Sunday. Really it would have been in better taste to join hands all around, and assure the splendid success of the exposition first before beginning to quarrel about whether it should be open on Sunday.
It probably will not be. The religious sentiment of the country is overwellingly against it. One bishop of the Methodist church, Bishop Turner, colored, thinks, however, that it should be open on Sunday in the interests of morality. A hundred thousand or more strangers in a city with time hanging on their hands will be apt to throng the haunts of vice and corruption if they have no better place to which to go.
The Paris exposition was open in most of its departments, and the largest attendance registered at all was on a Sunday, when the fair was visited by 386 000 persons. Machinery hall was silent on Sunday, and there was no buying or selling. Private advertisers did no business. But the great halls were all open. By the hundred thousand the working people of France thronged the artistic, industrial and scientific departments, walking quietly and orderly, drinking in beauty, getting education. That is how they manage these things in France.

Chancellor's Reception.
Snow Hall was the scene of a delightful reception last Friday night, the occasion being the annual reception of Chancellor and Mrs. Snow to the students of '91. The hall was beautifully decorated with snowballs, being considered as appropriate decorations. The Alumni members in the city were present as was also that members of the faculty and their wives.
Cooling refreshments were served during the evening and animated conversation and a Virginia Reel danced to the music of Bach's orchestra soon duelled the edge of formality and every one expressed themselves as more than pleased with the hospitality which they will not soon forget.
The entertainers were assisted by Misses Tisdale, Russell, Chapman, McCague, Smith, Simpson and Mattie Snow.

There is a gigantic scheme on foot to have a triangular league union field day. The proposition was made by Coole, the manager of the Baker Athletic association and the plan is to have the field day exercises in Lawrence and for Baker and Washburn to run excursions to this city. This plan of a grand union field day is favored by most of our students and would undoubtedly be a very pleasant event and we hope to see it carried out.
If you have any books to sell correspond with B. Glick, Kansas City.
The next triangular league game of base ball will be played in Lawrence next Monday between Baker and K. S. U. This will undoubtedly be the most interesting game of the season as these two strongest clubs of the league have not previously met to decide their ments upon the diamond. The grounds will be fixed up and seats will be provided, thus insuring the comfort of all who attend. An admission of twenty-five cents will be charged which will not be objected to by those who really wish to see a fine game of ball as this one will surely be. Efficient policemen will be stationed about the grounds to serve as a dampner to the hoodlum element and everything will be as pleasant as money and care can make it. All should go and see the greatest game of the season.
See Hamilton's photos.
We have heard of people in oth-colleges who, when asked to pay their svbscaptions to the cs college papers, declared that they had never subscribed or they had failed to get one issue, in fact tried to get out of paying; we trust there are no students here who after marching up to the stand every Friday morning for their Courier will new decline to pay for iti. If there are any such, please stand up and be counted.

Why They Objected.
The graduating law class of Cornell university have annually an address at commencement from some distinguished lawyer, the lawyer being selected by vote of the class. The name is submitted to the faculty of the law school for approval or disapproval, and their decision is the final vote in the case. This year the graduating class as usual chose three names. The first choice was Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll, the second Governor Hill, of New York, the third ex-President-Cleveland.

The names were presented to the faculty, who, after deliberation, informed the seniors that it would not be advisable to invite Colonel Ingersoll. The students grumbled, as he had been the first choice, but took no further steps in the matter. The faculty explained that their action was not on account of Ingersoll's religious or non-religious views. Oh, not! It was only because they wanted a man to address the seniors whose reputation had been wholly made as a lawyer. That may be, but no objection was made to either Hill or Cleveland, whose reputations certainly were not made in the profession of law, but in the profession of politics.
One would not, of course, question the out-and-out statement of the faculty of the Cornell law school, and they certainly would have the right to decline to admit Colonel Ingersoll to lecture to the senior class, on the ground that his theological opinions were objectionable, if they chose to do so. They are the bosses, and have the right to do what they think is best in the interests of the university and of the students.
If they thought it would not be well to have the eloquent skeptic speak before their young flock because of his disbelief the square, many thing would have been to say so, and all would have respected them; but to declare they disapproved of Colonel Ingersoll because they wanted a speaker whose reputation had been made solely as a lawyer, as they are reported to have done, and then make no objection to Governor Hill or ex-President Cleveland, whose reputations were both made in the profession of politics, has somehow a queer look on the face of it. The story reminds one of that old saw, "If you can't be honest be is honest as you can."
E. N. Nelson, who died lately at his home in Minot at the age of seventy years, was one of the most famous orchardists in Maine. He had special and original methods of storage of fruit, and his pride, in a business way, was in the apple, and especially in the Baldwin. He had an intimacy with 'the Baldwin that showed in a constant study to produce it in perfection, and to store it for marketing when most other orchardists in his vicinity had bade goodly to this variety for the season. His cellars had unique storage apparatus for keeping fruits, and a system of ventilation which was the result of Mr. Nelson's own study—Kennebee Journal.

What Are You Here For? To the Editor of the Courier:
A correspondent who conceals himself under the signature of K. has in last week's COURIER raised a question of some importance. He states that about fifteen hours of University work are "required" every day and therefore no time is left for recreation.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MAY 22, 1891.
Now in regard to the two hours which both K. and myself have assumed to be necessary for the preparation of each lesson. This is a maximum limit of requirement but the work is never kept up to that amount and is not considered to be. As a matter of fact I never in the past four years knew a student who spent six hours preparing three
time we do have. There are twenty-four hours in a day and seven days in a week so they say. Eight hours sleep is a good average and unfortunately few students spend more than an hour a day at their meals. Of course we must set aside the thirteen hours of Sunday, for spiritual improvement, merely suggesting that a nap, a walk or a chat on Sunday afternoon is allowed by the moralists. Three studies and two hours to prepare each must also be accepted, on paper at least. Mr. K. allows an hour a day for a trip to the University and back. This is evidently what Shakespeare meant when he spoke of the "school boy creeping like a snail unwillingly to school." Since it only takes twenty-four minutes to walk from the top of Mt. Oread to North Lawrence and most students live about half that distance I must cut down that estimate to half an hour. Mr. K. takes an hour a day to write his themes and the same for elocution. I have seen themes written between supper and midnight. Elocution did not use to require much time but they make so much fuss over it now that it must be quite a task. But leaving these points unsettled we have from thirty five to forty-five hours a week left, at the lowest about three-fourths as much as the total study time. Now if Mr. or Miss K. went at it with enough energy I have no doubt but that he could do enough athletic work in forty hours to keep his body in good condition and have enough time to spare for college journalism, politics and fraternities. I should not advise him to spend it reeding books for I do not see how that could do any good to a man who has to be "goaded and lectured" into reading Hawthorne and Dickens. I really feel inclined to criticise the instructor in English for wasting his time urging students, to real good fiction when they are not interested enough to read for themselves.
J. H. Bell & Bro., the popular Music Dealers, have just received a lot of new songs.
That new process photo at Hamilton's is the finest thing made.
lessons for any length of time. I have myself, though I assure you I am not at all proud of it, carried a new study with a grade of one on twenty minutes a week, outside of class, and such instances, though fortunately rare, are not unusual. Most students, I think take about half an hour for each lesson, certainly an hour would cover the average of the University.
Such a state of things is not right and I join with K. in wishing to have this "required" amount of time required. The fault lies with the teachers rather than with students. A student who can get a good grade by fifteen minutes work is not going to spend two hours. The work should be such as to necessitate two hours preparation for the ordinary student, that is it should be just about double in all departments.
SUMMER UNDERWEAR.
Where to buy and what to buy is the question. We want the students to know that Bromelsiek's is headquarters for gentlemen's hosiery and underwear, as his assortment is greater than any other house in town can show and the prices are as low as the lowest.
EDWIN E. SLOGSON.
It is true that more is done by the students now than four years ago, and the time required is also increased though in a lower ratio, and it may safely be said that in spite of K. the standard will continue to be raised until K's fifteen hours may become a reality instead of the fiction it is now. Those who do not like it can find plenty of institutions in our own state where they can get the same degree without exerting themselves. The butterfly girl who is more proud of her record in the ball room than in the class room can find places where society is even more brilliant than in Lawrence. If not she can stay at home and spend her fourteen hours studying that useful manual "How to Shine in Society." The boy whose kicks in the gymnasium are high because his grades everywhere else are low can find colleges whose athletic record is ahead of ours. K. S. U. wants more students but it is STUDENTS who are wanted; men who are willing to sacrifice all pleasures, whether of society, athletics, fraternity or aesthetics, when ever they interfere with their studies; men, in short, who want to devote all their energies for four years to the acquisition and advancement of knowledge.

Our bid for suggestions last week as to the commencement number of theCourier has borne valuable fruit and we acknowledge with gratitude the hints that have been given us.
A TIME for everything and everything at its time is a splendid motto and none but simpletons and children ignore it. That the conduct of some of the students in the hall last Friday was out of both time and place no one will deny. There are times when fun and even boisterousness are permissible but the throwing of overshoes and velling in the halls when classes are reciting certainly shows lack of good judgment. It looks like a country school just three weeks before vacation. We are always in for fun at the proper time but we want a sufficient occasion for it.
Ir has been suggested to us that the University ought to have more of its own college songs and we think so too. The students, when out on any occasion, feel, very much, the need of some rousing, catching, songs, not only to march by but to relieve the monotony of yelling. We undoubtedly have the best college yell in the United States, and what we want now are more loyal K. S. U. songs. Now let those who have poetic inspirations give expression to some of them in behalf of K. S. U. and we will gladly publish them. We are sure Prof. Penny would gladly compose easy music for the words or have his classes do so. In this way we could soon have quite a collection of good University songs. It would be a good idea to have the advanced English class write some lyric poems and then choose the best of them to be set to music.
THE last number of the "Chapman Howitzer" contains a very interesting and significant letter by Prof. S. M. Cook, principal of the Dickinson county high school, upon the condition and working of that institution. The results of county high school experiments in Dickinson county have been most gratifying and the people are proud of the school. The plan of the school as set forth by Prof. Cook, is certainly a hopeful one and so practical and economical is the scheme that quite a number of counties are now contemplating the erection of county schools. At present we believe there are only three such schools in the state but the number is increasing and we believe the time will come when every county will have its school. What a grand thing such a consummation will be for the University! No more excuses then for poorly prepared students for the
University. The counties as they establish the schools will look this way for principals and teachers to run them and the throbbing of the great heart of our Alm mater will be felt in every nook and corner of the state. This may seem a dream but time will see its fullfillment.
ONE more week then comes the tug of war. Of course there will be a certain number of failures but the students who fail are generally the last to anticipate such a result and they always have a fine excuse for the red cards which appear in the office against them. There is one advantage, however, in failing in two studies at the close of the year instead of at the end of the first term, in that it is much easier to explain matters at home. While some failures are inevitable we do not believe that there need be as many as there are. No student is predestined by his professor but he condemns himself. The professor expects his students to make the college course a business first and then a pleasure. The business student is the one who wins.
As matters now stand Baker has the lead in the base ball league. It is hardly a comforting thought to know that K. S. U. might have had that enviable position but for the unfortunate errors in the second inning of last Monday's game. That our boys played the strongest game is shown by the fact that they steadily regained their loss and were one run ahead at the beginning of the ninth inning. More nerve in the field and greater security at the bat is what we need. We regret very much the trickery that was resorted to by both nines. The running by Baker of two mem between bases and the action of our first basemen at the close of the game are excusable upon no grounds whatever and ought to be frowned upon. If a game cannot be won fairly it ought not to be won at all. Claim your rights with emphasis, boys, but by all means be honorable. If in the game tomorrow we beat Washburn we shall be even with Baker and we think we can vanquish the "doughnuts" in the next game.
This is the great season of the year for picnics, and parties. There are class picnies, faculty picnies, dry-weather and wet-weather picnirs, fraternity parties, fishing parties, and boating parties. The social side of University life is now predominant and will be till the end of school. Students feel that a year of hard work is almost completed and that a good time is now in order, and we agree. We are inclined to pity the student who grinds through the year and then skulks off home without the memory of a single pleasant and social event. We believe in spending ones life not in a grave yard but in a garden among the birds and the flowers.

The following from the April "Focus" is too good to pass by. The "Focus" is one of our best exchanges and we always read it with pleasure:
A TOOTHSOME ARTICLE.
Pretty soon the dentist stuck his head into the door and told me that it was my turn. I asked him how he had disposed of the remains of my predecessors so easily. He smiled more sweetly than ever, and motioned me into the operating chair.
I threw my head back and opened my mouth. The dentist involuntarily grasped the sides of his chair, and said he believed he wouldn't come in because his feet were muddy. Then he ran his arm into my face and began to feel round somewhere inside. I seized his arm, dragged it out of my inside, and explained that my tooth was still in my mouth, that I had not swallowed it. He said yes, he knew it. I suppose he had personally investigated. I never experienced such an instance of fellow-feeling in my life.
"I've found it?" he cried, excitedly, at last.
"I've known where it was all the time," I answered with choking sarcasm.
The dentist turned to his desk of gleaming tools and picked out a machine that I have seen blacksmiths use when shoeing horses. The minute the cold steel entered my mouth I began to repent. It felt its fearful way along until it got to a tooth that suited it. The critical moment had arrived. The dentist leaned forward, platted his head against my chest, braced both feet against the writer, and said, "Now look pleasant—won't be long," and gave a mighty jerk. There was a cracking sound in my brain. a blinding flash of cerebral lightning, a sensation like the disintegration of worlds, and the tooth was out. I think the root was wrapped about my back bone, and had begun to sprout in the shoulder blade.
"She's a beauty," panted the dentist.
"She's the best thing out," I replied coldly.
Pi Beta Phi.
The reception given last Friday evening in Fraziers hall by the young ladies of the Pi Beta Phi fraternity was one of the most elaborate and delightful social affairs of the season. There were several pleasing features such as, the strictly formal reception, and a decidedly informal way of serving refreshments which gave charm and novelty to the occasion. Beautiful flowers were every where to be seen and in the gentlemen's dressing room buttonhole boquets of carnations, this being the fraternity flower, were in readiness to decorate each gentleman as he presented himself. Upon the stage was a long table covered with flowers and from which hung ribbons of the fraternal colors. The west end of the hall was strewn with handsome rugs and luxurious chairs, and lounges gave ease to those who preferred a quiet chat to a turn upon the perfectly waxed floor.
The ladies toilets, the music, the flowers and the decorations, all were arranged with the utmost harmony and taste and presented a picture not soon to be forgotten. The Riverside mandolin club furnished the music, several selections were rendered which were composed expressly for this occasion. A short

The Sophomore Picnic.
Last Saturday morning the Santa Fe "plug" bore a jolly crowd of students, some forty in number, on an excursion to Eudora. The neat bows of white and gold which they wore showed that they were members of the class of '93. Upon arriving in Eudora the "picnicers' paired to the beautiful grove just at the edge of town, and there spent a forenoon of unalloyed pleasure. When the dinner hour came the class did full justice to an elegant lunch which the ladies had prepared. Prof. Slosson left the "spread" long enough to photograph the class when the members had their handfull of tempting viands. After dinner rain threatened and the excursionists returned to town. The authorities placed the City Hall at their disposal. For this kindness the class is indebted so Mr. C. A. Hill. The afternoon was most pleasantly passed in listening to stories by Prof. Dyche, dialect readings by Prof. Dunlap and in games and conversation. Prof. Dyche and others also favored the class with exhibitions of their activity in jig dancing, etc.
The excursionists bade Eudora "good bye" at 7:15 p. m. and were soon in Lawrence again after having spent what all declared a most delightful day. There was no lack of "Rock-chalk, Jaw-Hawk K. U." and "Rock-chalk, Jay-Hawk, '93" along the line, and the class of '93 can congratulate itself that it is the only Sophomore class that has had spirit enough to get up a class picnic.
Those who went on the excursion are as follows, Prof. and Mrs. Dyche, Profs. Dunlap and Slosson, Misses Hand, Haskell, Tinsley, Spencer, Jones, Eaton, Stewart, Schorer, Stewart, Rush, Simpson, Corbin, Spencer, Blair, Webb,
Rodgers,Bowman, Spencer, Morris, Barrett; Messrs. O'Bryon, Owen, Riddle, Frazier, Fisher, Hunt, Curry, Raymond, Spencer, Crowell, Curry, Templin, Reno, Sweezy, Moore, O'Leary and Ross.
PRECEDENCE is petrified influence. It is most exacting and often con quers common sense.
BAKER WINS.
Yesterday's Ball Game Between the Baker and K. S. U. Nines Proves a Very Interesting One.
Although Sunday's rain soaked the ball gound until it was unfit to be played upon, the arrival of the Baker team made the game necessary. The official umpire, Tucker of Washburn, not being here, Mackey of Haskell, was selected as umpire. At 2:30 the game was called and a good sized crowd was assembled notwithstanding the threatening sky. The following are the nines:
K. S. U.
Skinzie          Pitcher           Baker
Kitzie          Catcher         Dugdon
Stimmona        Cricket        Topping
Stimmona        Cricket        Topping
Crawford        Second base     Messinger
Fisher         Third base      Brown
Hogg            Short stop      Lindsey
Hayley         Left field      Leake
Smith          Center field      Oakle
Morse          Right field      Dunley
K. S. U. took the field and Lindsey for Baker was the flasst man at the bat, and by some bad in-field work on K. S. U.'s side made a score. In the second half Sherman starts well by driving a hard liner over the center fielder, for three bases, but on account of poor work on K. S. U.'s side at the bat does not get home. In the second half of the second inning by an error of Toppings and a fine slide, Crawford scores. The third inning was a succession of poor plays and rank errors on both sides but particularly with the University boys. The K. S. U. in-field seemed to be badly rattled and their batting was miserable. The end of the third found the score 9 to 1 in favor of Baker. During the fourth the University boys seemed to pick up a little and made three runs. In the first half of the fifth Harvey makes a pretty running catch which was applauded. Fisher made a good stop but by a wild throw brought in two men. In the second half the boys hit some and made a score.
The first half of the seventh was ushered in by a beautiful running catch of a foul by Morse and although the bases were full almost the entire half of the inning the Baker men failed to score. K. S. U. takes the bat and a hard liner over right field by Crawford brings in Hogg, Harvey and Simmons. At this point great excitement was manifest by all and as Fisher's long hit into right field brings in Crawford the yells of the K. S. U. boys are almost deafening. Foster comes over the plate, and the score stands 12 to 11 in K. S. U.'s favor.
Neither side tallied in the eighth inning. At the beginning of the ninth the Baker men try to rattle Kinzle, and they seemed to succeed, as Lindsey got his base on balla. On account of wretched in-field work Baker gets four runs. The K. S. U. bays had a splendid chance to do something in the last half, but on account of very weak batting only got one run. This ended the game, and the score by innings is as follows:

A Meeting Held and a Committee Appointed.
The plan of securing, if possible, members of the supreme bench of Kansas and Missouri for a course of lecturers yearly, supplemented by leading members of the bar, was highly indorsed.
A very large delegation of Kansas City alumni and friends will attend the annual banquet June 5th. Another meeting will be held in two weeks to complete plans mapped out.—K. C. Journal.
The resident alumni of the two Kansas Cities of the law department of the State University of Kansas, numbering between twenty-five and thirty do not think the board of regents of that institution are treating the department from which they draw their fund of legal lore very generously in their appropriations.
Last evening a meeting of the alumni was held in the law office of of Mr. John Sullivan in the New York Life building. A committee consisting of Messrs. Benjamin Jacobs, Cyrus Crane, E. Enns, Alfred Fidler, Solon Gilmore, Bruno Hobbs. T. A. Pollock, James Harris and I. Bradley were appointed to look into the interests of the department and report to the Alumni Association at its meeting at Lawrence during commencement week, in June, for action.
The professors and students of the law department at the present time heartily indorse the sentiment expressed and the action taken at this meeting. We have investigated the subject somewhat and do not find any other department of the University so neglected.
We regret that this state of things exists but the facts as to liberry facilities is, that, counting the recent additions made to the library by gifts from generous friends there are only 725 volumes belonging to the department while Prof. Green furnishes, for the use of students, over 1,000 volumes from his private library. There is not a dictionary, except law dictionaries, or an encyclopedia or anything of that kind from which any general information may be obtained and the law students are not allowed to use the library at the main building as freely as we think they should be. Another serious difficulty is that no lights have been provided for the recitation room or the library on account of which the students have been obliged to hold the meetings of the Kent club etc, in
the afternoon when a number of the students are busy in offices and elsewhere and cannot attend, thereby depriving them of these benefits altogether.
As regards the dean and instructors, we think this department is as well provided for as any in the University. We have never heard anything but the best of satisfaction expressed by the students in respect to them. Prof. Green is in receipt of numerous letters from well known firms in the neighboring states as well as in Kansas requesting him to take charge of difficult cases in which they are involved. This speaks for itself as to his abilities as a lawyer and an instructor.
Of course we do not expect this will have any influence on the action of the regents, but we do hope the action taken by the Alumni association will

Pope Leo on the School Question.
An Associated press reporter at Rome who is very sure he knows what he is talking about says the coming encyclical of Leo XIII will be the crowning work of this pontificate. It will deal with questions of state, labor and schools. His holiness will take no side for or against anybody, but will look at all questions from the standpoint of each side and draw his conclusions. Especially in the settlement of delicate questions his holiness counsels conciliation, peace and moderation. He wisely says time will settle many difficulties when nothing else can. He requests Catholics in America not to antagonize state or national authorities. On this point, according to the correspondent, he says:
606489 a new toy is being made by John is

$10 per hour. Both sexes, all ages. In any part

STIFFNESS & CO., FORWARD, MADE.
The Holy See counsels reconciliation and pacification. In any case time will inevitably settle all such conflicts. After one generation is past divisions and differences will disappear, but the problems of religion range themselves on national and constitutional ground. The United States would have a very simple means of restraining conflicts, should any arise, by a law regulating immigration to the states. But the church does better into the questions which are quite outside her province.
On the vexed question of parochial schools his instructions will be, pointedly:
Catholics in America should have parochial schools in all parishes where it is possible, and where there is sufficient means to render them equal to the public schools. Where it is impossible, schools should be established in which the parish may be a daughter of the school should be persuaded to permit instruction in the catechism outside of the hours regularly appointed for the ordinary school subjects, as is done in Germany. One thing, however, is absolutely obligatory, that it, to found no parish school, should not level with those of the state, for it would simply end in the children deserting them in favor of the state schools. At present, however, Catholics in the United States cannot rival the state schools, as they have not sufficient resources to specify the types of professions specifics most particularly that their parochial schools must in every degree be one to those of the State.
Dr. Sharp, of the Academy of Natural Sciences, says the northern division of the Caucasian race is growing persistently darker skinned and the golden and flaxen blonde type is disappearing He attributes this gradual darkening to the retention of biliary pigments in the blood, owing to the action of heat, and that is owing to the artificial heating of the houses of civilized people in modern times. In winter our houses are now as warm as in summer, and that is gradually making of us a darker skinned race. But if heat makes men dark skinned then cold ought to make them fair, whether they are of the Caucasian race or not. Cold has had its way with the Esquimaux for many centuries now, and they are still as dark as they can be, for white people.
There is one important difference between men and women criminals. The woman may steal, swindle, or even murder, but when cornered and caught she confesses the crime. The man criminal does not. He maintains usually a stolid silence, and neither threats nor promises can move him. He has more strength and nerve. The assistant forewoman in John Wanamaker's fur department in Philadelphia has in the last four years purloined $300 worth of goods. When arrested the first thing she did was to become frightened and confess the whole. Before women decide to commit crimes they ought first to consider whether they have nerve enough to keep their mouths shut if they are suspected and arrested.

One of the most accomplished men in Kansas who attended last week the second annual meeting of the Seminary of Historical and political Science at the Kansas university declares that he was most agreeably impressed with the character of the speeches delivered by the students. He says they were full of good sense, with no "rose pink" nor "magnolia business" about them. The subject matter was excellent and admirably expressed. "There are plenty of young men at Lawrence," he added, "who are learning how to speak and write English and who know a good many other things."
The last "Women's Column" contains a letter from a number of Russian women to President Harrison demanding a better treatment of the women in the United States. The first paragraph runs thus: It is with amazement and profound regret that we learn of the despotic rule of men over women in the one country to which above all others the word turns with hope, expecting progress towards equal rights and privileges. And, fearing that you are either ignorant of the laws which injure your own country—women, or that you do not realize what a stumbling block such laws will prove to other nations, we herewith offer our earnest remonstrance against their longer continuance. We beg you, as head of the nation, as the bright exemplar to whom all your people look for guidance, to use your powerful influence to have these tyrannical and degrading laws removed from the statute books which their presence now disgraces.

Last Friday evening the officers and members of the Seminary of Historical and Political Science, entertained the associate members by an informal reception and banquet at the University. The reception was held in the University parlors, and among the guests were some of the most distinguished men in the state. At an early hour the party adjourned to Prof. Canfield's lecture room, where an elegant banquet was spread. The tables were placed, one on each side of the room, while a third connected them at the north end, and Prof. Canfield, as toast master, occupied the center. At the ends of the two latter Vice-President Blackmar and ex-Chancellor Marvin presided.
The Seminary Annual.
After the supper, to which ample justice was done, speeckmaking began. Director Canfield made a few introductory remarks, and read some of the letters of regret which he had received from those who had been unable to accept the invitation to attend the banquet. Hon. T. Dwight Thacher was presented and made a short address upon the early history of the University. Dr. Marvin followed, who also sketched in a very pleasant way the history of the institution during his career as chancellor. Hon. Noble Prentis next spoke, and told how he had come to call Lawrence "Historyville," which was both interesting and instructive. Short talks were then given by Hon. C. S. Gleed, Vice Director F. W. Blackmar, C. S. Finch, Colonel Green, H. F. Roberts, Otis Holmes, and Mr. Presby of the Public Opinion.
J. H. Bell & Bro., the popular Music Dealers, have just received a lot of new songs.
In addition to the speakers mentioned there were present the following well known gentlemen: B. W.Woodward, O.E.Learnard, D. S.Alford, Rev.Ayres, and Prof. E.M.Hopkins.

The following is the way a correspondent, probably a Baker student, to the Baldwin Ledger, end his account of the ball game between Baker and K. S. U: "Simons, the first baseman for K. S. U., better known as "split gizzard" made a brilliant play at the last trying to trip Beeks on first. He then ran into the crowd for safety Make a play like that Mr. Gizzard here on the 30th, and we will laria you out on the grass north of the grounds—that is the tips of your toes will be just barely touching the grass, while your face will be for the first time turned heavenward." What the writer intended to convey by such language we do not know but on its face it not only bespeaks a low and abandoned sense of courtesy but savors so much of the bully that we could not but present it. The language seems to imply that our boys expect to win by treachery and that the only way to compete with them is by hanging or some other savage means We want to inform the Ledger than K. S. U. will allow no rascality to be imputed to it. We expect to win the pennant through the merits of good playing and as to individual acts of unfairness there are civilized means of settling them. These are our sentiments.
THE following editorial from the University News presents so concisely the question which it discusses that we give it in full. It might be well to notice how it applies to our University during commencement:
"The fraternity brings them back," says an alumnus in his communication, "the college fails to." What are the superior attractions that bring to a chapter banquet those that otherwise would feel little inclination to revisit their college after graduation? The four years spent at college constitute a life in themselves, a life with its joys and sorrows—its successes and failures. The young man comes for intellectual improvement, he finds that his social nature also demands attention. With the members of his class he travels over the prescribed routes to the intellectual goal, often without the personal sympathy of his instructor or of his fellow students; he has entered a society where all are admitted, a society with few amenities and fewer ties of friendship. The fraternity, on the other hand aims to supply this very want, to furnish him companionship and social development. As it seeks to fill these closest relations of this unique life, no wonder that its bonds are stronger than the more general ties that hold him to his college. Aside from his knowledge of its history, his recognition of how beneficial an influence it has exerted over him, and his interest in its future prosperity, there are formed within its protection those friendships that are so strong and persistent among college men. The constant association of noble minded youth of like pursuits and purposes cannot fail to establish friendships that will last when knowledge of Latin verb and Greek root shall have faded away. For these reasons, statesmen, scholars, men of high professional and social standing, bear testimony of the value of the influence of their Greek letter society; because of this, the banquet board where the friends of former years meet and where the closest associations are again brought to mind, often proves a greater attraction to the alumnus than the college halls of his Alma Mater."
The "Review" last Monday passed off very quietly and the company gave expression to its choice for officers in very short order. Whether the choice was a good one remains to be seen. We congratulate the new editor in chief on the honor and confidence he has received from the students. We have known the gentleman personally for more than twenty years. We used to pick huckleberries in Michigan for him to eat, and out west while still a boy we picked many a sandbur out of his bare feet. We know his disposition pretty well and know that we speak his sentiments when we say that he feels keenly the responsibility of the trust which has been placed upon him. What the "Review" will do under him time will tell. We cannot, however, refrain from making a few remarks upon the possibilities of our monthly paper and may drop some words of advice. That Kansas University is one of the best institutions in our land is recognized by all, and why its literary magazine should not take its place in the front rank of college literaay papers we do not see. We are sure the faculty are anxious to do all they can in raising the Review to a high and recognized standard of quality. Kansas is teeming in rich and varied literature, and as the University is regarded more and more every year as the center of culture and learning, why should not the current of Kansas literary thought be turned this way by expression? We have also in Kansas a strong and growing Academy of Language, and as this is the center of attraction, why could not the Review be made its sanctioned medium? These are questions for earnest consideration, and of great importance to the University. The problem is how to get the best talent of the state interested. If our monthly were placed on a high and discriminating plane, so that accessions to its columns were a mark of special worth and distinction, we believe the problem would be solved. Our idea may be too high, but it is worth striving for. The Review should not be confined to matters of local importance, it should spread its wings and in the sunlight of hearty approval sweep over all the state.
THAT which often goes to waist. but never grows less—an arm.
ARE you ready for next week?
What is wrong in the construction of this sentence? "In this, the christian ethics, with its basis of love, is again pre-eminent that compliance with its demands yields peaceful satisfaction."
We like to see improvement, and the University is making some very material ones. To have all the space between the main building and Snow Hall clear and nicely sodded will indeed add much to the appearance of the campus. Make everything attractive so that our visiting friends and relatives may see that we have good taste.
THE lectue by Mr. Donnelly last Saturday night on Shakespeare seems to have made quite a number of converts to his theory of Bacon's authorship of Shakespeare. Whether his arguments against Shakespeare can be successfully answered is doubtful, and again, on the other hand, it is doubtful, whether the proving of his point will bring any great relief to any one. Personally, we believe that very few men indeed have any right to form an opinion on the subject.
WORD was received this week that Mr. W. Hill, of '90, had just been elected to a fellowship at Harvard. Such a distinction is certainly a great honor, and the University may well feel proud of such a representative at that great institution of learning. In a letter to a friend, Mr. Hill attributes his success in a great measure to the training he got here, and especially in the Department of American History. After Prof. Canfield has taken a student through a two years' course of American History, it means that that student has received a training which will influence him all his life.
On account of the rain last Monday which prevented the proposed game between the Baker and Washburn nines at Topeka we are unable to make any final calculation on the result of the game between K. S. U. and Baker at Baldwin tomorrow. Last Monday's game would have been the last between the other two colleges and if we knew its result we could tell exactly what victory or defeat tomorrow would mean. We are now even with Baker. If we win tomorrow and Baker loses the game with Washburn next Monday the pennant will be ours. If Baker wins Monday's game, it and K. S. U. will still be tied. If we lose tomorrow's game and Baker beats Washburn the pennant will go to Baker, but if Baker loses Monday's game we shall still be even, and another game will have to be played between Baker and K. S. U. The pennant lies between Baker and K. S. U. If we win tomorrow it will be a tie anyway and possibly a final victory. We feel confident that our boys are going to win and we want to go down with that intention. The number of tickets for the excursion to Baldwin is limited to 180, and
certainly that many students will go. It is Decoration day, and a holiday, and one way of celebrating it is to go to Baldwin and yell for our side. We hope a number of the ladies will go, for it will not only show their loyalty, but will have a wholesome influence on the crowd. Boys, it will not do to let Baker win every game. We will never hear the last of it if they do. Tomorrow is the time. Rock-Chalk! Jay-Hawk! K. U.
To the Editor of the COURIER:
I am asked to explain what I meant by certain expressions quoted in a recent issue of the Journal relative to University banquets. A few words will suffice, and the Seminary Annual may be taken as illustration.
The Seminary wishes to close the year with a collation, and a social evening. The following notice—not invitation—is prepared:
K. S. U., Seminary of Historical and Political Science:The Second Annual will be held on the evening of Friday, May 22d, 1871, at the University. Collation prompt at eight; followed by report on the work of the year, a symposium on Municipal Government, and antevacation "last words" from officers and members
Kindly notify the undersigned at once of your intention (or inability) to be present, that proper arrangements for the evening may be made; and greatly oblige James H. Canfield, director. Covers 75 cents each.
This may be properly sent to all members of the Seminary, and to such members of the University faculty as are directly interested in Seminary work. These are presumably so united as to form a body of persons willing to co-operate by presence and purse in securing a pleasant and profitable evening. The amount charged for covers should be exactly what the caterers contract calls for.
But we desire the presence of others. Gentlemen in the state are known to be in sympathy with us. There is really but one way to bring this about, and that is to make them our guests. Accordingly the following invitation is sent out.
The officers and members of the Seminary of Historical and Political Science, Kansas State University, request the pleasure of your company at the Second Annual, Friday evening, May 24, 1891, at 8 o'clock, Rooom 15, University.
Now to add, "Covers, 75 cents each" to this, would be as inappropriate as if Mr. and Mrs. Woodward were to issue invitations to their charming home—adding, "Guests will please bring their own lunch-eons." If the Seminary cannot afford to have guests, then issue no invitations. If it can afford to have guests, then do not make them boarders by asking them to pay for their meals. What would be thought of Kappa Alpha Theta should she issue invitations to a lawn festival and add, "Covers, one dollar."
The very simple rule is, and should be. the notice should go to all immediately interested,as,in case of the Alumni banquet, to all alum-

Kappa Kappa Gamma.
The residence of J. D. Bowersock was the scene of a pleasant and notable event last evening. The occasion was the annual reception of the young ladies of the Kappa Kappa Gamma fraternity. The already handsome house was decorated throughout, the decoration of the dining room being especially attractive. The nooks and corners in the woodwork of the wall were boundfully trimmed with the choicest flowers. The chandilier was hung with ribbons of dark and light blue, the fraternity colors. The table loaded with choicest refreshments, was most tastily decked with flowers. The refreshments were served to the guests at their places around the room and being free from the formality usually prevalent at such times were much more enjoyed.
The pavilion in the yard was in keeping with the house in the matter of decorations, and the dancing to the music of the Mandolin Club was enjoyed to an extent impossible, at this season, in a close hall.
Inside of the house, the music from a fine music box, cards and billiards furnished amusement for those who did not participate in the dancing. The event was most pleasant from beginning to end, and the guests appreciate the hospitality of the Kappas as thoroughly as the Kappas appreciate the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Bowersock for so kindly opening their house for the event.
There were present Misses Murphy, of White Cloud; Chamberlain, of Ottawa; Scott, of Larned; Fullerton, of Beloit; Rushmer, Orton, Nuzuan, Moore, Henshaw, O'Bryon, McKinnon, Springer, Mason, Monroe, Webster, Tisdale, Humphrey, Scott, Barrett, Hand, Chapman, Hair, Taggart, Johnston, Nina Taggart, Hadley, Bowersock, Morris.

To the Editor of the Courier:
I hesitate to ask you to give space for what may seem to many a slight and purely personal matter, but knowing of no other way of meeting a public affront except in a public way, I have concluded to ask for a place in your paper.
Last Monday after the Review election, friends who knew my sentiments about the management of that paper, took me severely to task for accepting a place as associate editor. I told them I had not accepted it and would not; that nothing had been said to me about it. Nothing has yet been said by those in authority. The emptiness of the position precludes the charitable construction of the company's action—that it was done from motives of friendship and appreciation. There remains, therefore, but one other construction, and it is entirely consonant with the past acts of the company—that of seeking by this sham to give an air of fairness to its conduct, by giving "representation" to a class of students who, by fraud against the constitution of the company, and the laws of the state are deprived of any participation that is worthy of men, in the management of the paper.
It is because this explanation can not be made to each, that it is now made publicly to all. As long as the Review is conducted on the present principles—or rather lack of principles; as long as two fraternities that according to law can hold but twenty shares, control and vote more than fifty shares; as long as elections are carried by bribery and fraud, and the politics of the company remain as now a foul blotch on the University, I shall consider the holding of a position on the paper a smirch on one's character, and the public report of it a public affront. In view of this, it is only in justice to myself that this explanation be made as public as the report of the election will be. G.O. VIRTUE.

Bohemian Girl.
Lawrence is to have one more great treat before school closes. Miss Brown and Prof. Penny have not worked so hard this year to make anything a success as they have the Bohemian Girl. This opera is considered one of the best in the stage, and the solo parts in it are to be sung by the best singers in the city, and Mr. Halloran, the well known tenor singer, comes from Kansas City to take one of the parts. The chorus has been practicing nearly every night for two weeks. It will be a grand opportunity for visitors during commencement, to enjoy one of the finest entertainments ever given in Lawrence. It will pay students to wait and hear it, for it is hard to tell when they will have another chance. Miss Brown's direction vouches for the action of the play. Remember the time; next Friday, Saturday, and the following Monday nights.

A Justice Loving Rooster.
A Justice Loving Rooster.
An incident which caused much amusement and set everybody talking occurred in the court room on a recent afternoon. John Williams, who had been charged on several indictments for burglary, felonious entry, larceny, etc., but was decided not guilty on all but three indictments, pleaded guilty on the indictment for larceny. During the day a rooster was offered in testimony, it being claimed that the prisoner had stolen the bird.
Now this rooster, like any other sensible bird, kept its mouth shut and behaved very nicely indeed during the trial. But when Judge Bittenger called the prisoner up and passed sentence upon him the rooster could contain himself no longer, and from within his basket prison there came a crow of delight and exultation. The effect was rather startling as well as amusing. The crowd cnuckled with suppressed merriment, and even the stern judge was noticed to relax his countenance a little. The merriment at length subsided and the rooster was voted a dangle. But that historic bird had not yet fully demonstrated his appreciation of the circumstances to his own satisfaction.
Williams was afterward called up to receive sentence on another indictment, and the unsuspecting people were again almost electrified by hearing another hearty crow from the rooster. That bird was evidently glad that the prisoner was sentenced and wanted it understood too. —York (Pa.) Daily.
A Living Dynamo.
A correspondent in New London, Conn., sends out this remarkable story: George Rood, of Westerly, R. I., was struck by lightning, and after recovering consciousness it was found that his body was full of electricity. He is now able to sit up, but his body is so highly charged with electric fluid that when he puts his hands within a certain distance of each other sparks will jump from one to the other with a loud, crackling noise, and when the hands touch they can be separated only by the most violent rubbing. His feet are in the same condition, and he has to be careful to keep them apart. A person touching him receives a slight shock, and if he touches a watch he magnetizes it completely. Many people visit him to witness the curious manifestation of electricity's wonderful power.
Potatoes Growing on a Grape Vine.
Potatoes Growing on a Grape Vine.
The owner of a garden in Greenville had occasion recently to prune a grapevine. In his ignorance he failed to consult "Daboll's yearly clam tide regulator," and mutilated the vine in the wrong season, with the result that the fluid extract of grape began to run and there was danger of the vine bleeding to death, when a happy thought went through his brain. Securing some large seed potatoes, he dissected them and applied the pieces to the cuts. They stuck together like twin brothers and the vine and potatoes flourished, gathering life from each other, till now they form a conglomeration of grape and potato vine that is attracting the attention of farmers and agriculturists for miles around.

One must travel from the north end of Jasper county to the south end to realize the great difference in temperature. Crops may safely be planted in the southern end of the county a month earlier than in the northern part. Oranges may be raised in the south end of the county with more safety than figs in the north end. Serious damage was caused to the fruit crop at Jasper by the late cold spring, yet twenty miles below town it seems not to have affected vegetation in any manner.Jasper (Tex.) News Boy.

It is the boast of Dr. Gallinger, the new senator from New Hampshire, that he has set type in nearly every newspaper office north of Mason and Dixon's line and between Maine and the Mississippi. His political career began in 1884, when he was elected to congress.
The total output of coal in the United Kingdom last year reached, according to the official statistics just published, 181,644,288 tons, against 176,916,724 tons in 1889. The increase was thus 4,697,564 tons, or nearly 27 per cent.
The object of the People's party is expressed in the language of the president of the convention that started it, Hon. W. A. Peffer, the Kansas senator. "The money power must be overthrown. We are here to take hold of, to undermine, to dispose of forever the power that is crushing the people all over the world; that has in its hands not only my home and yours, but the homes of 50 per cent. of the people of the entire world." Every hit at the grinding millionaire monopolists and great land owners was cheered wildly.
Inoculating for disease germs is now to be tried in the agricultural field. Professor Snow has cultivated the germs of a disease that is expected to wipe out the chinch bug, which is so destructive to field crops. The chinches eat up the corn; but Professor Snow will endeavor to scatter among them an infinitesimal microbes that will eat them up.
It is thought there is some hope for relief from Chicago smoke in factories by a new system of down draft furnaces, recently introduced. By these furnaces The Chicago Tribune informs its readers that 90 per cent. of the smoke is prevented and fuel is saved. There is yet time for manufacturers to adopt the new system before the opening of the Columbian fair.

The Model Grocer
Is the I. C. G.
He does not sand his sugar.
Wet his terbacker, nor dust his tea.
He does a thriving business,
As every one can see.
So keep the wheel a buzzing,
And buy at the I. C. G.
All he sells is pure and good.
He makes a profit on each sale.
On the entire line of food
Nothing sold that is stale.
Every dollar with him you spend
Is that much well invested.
A balance, too, you will have at the end,
And a conscience well fed and rested.
