Our Boys Still Win--They Defeated Baker Saturday — Tune 18 to 4-A Hard Fought Contest.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, DECEMBER, 4.1891.
Thanksgiving is Celebrated—K.
U. Wins From the K. C., Y.
M. C. A. Team-Score
22 to 4.
The crimson star of destiny in the foot ball world, is still in the secondary. Two more victories were added to our list last week.
One being an exhibition game with the Y. M. C. A. team of Kansas City and the other; a regularly scheduled league game wiff Baker. These make five straight victories for our boys. All have been won by good scores. Team work due to the careful coaching and steady training of the boys by Manager E. M. Hopkins tells the story of our success. We have two more games to play this year and we hope to win them both although they are with strong elevens. K. U. plays the Iowa State University team in Kansas City tomorrow and next Monday will meet Baker again. The Baker game will probably decide the triangular league fight, and the Kansas-Iowa game will almost show the strongest team of the four states, Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa and Kansas.
THE BAKER GAME.
Saturday afternoon at 1 o'clock a trail of three coaches "filled to overflowing" pulled out of the Santa Fe depot for Baldwin. The long disputed question of supremacy on the "field do kick" was to be decided between Baker and K. U. Over three hundred students accompained the team. Both eleven were confident of victory and everybody realized that the struggle was to be a hard one. Our "rooters" were all there and were prepared to pull hard. Baker's team is a good one but they are weak in team work which is the University's strong point. Play was called promptly at 2:30, a short time after K. U. arrived. K. U. takes the ball and has some advantage in the slope of the field to the north but the wind is against them. The game starts with a wedge with a gain of five yards. Williamson then gains two yards. A criss-cross follows from Sherman to Champlin with the result that Champlin gets within a yard of Baker's goal line. K. U., lines up and by a mighty push the ball goes over the line. Hogg quickly kicks a goal and in three minutes from the start the score is K. U. 6, Baker 0.
Baker starts with a wedge which is followed by a run around the right end by Goodole. A total gain of seventeen yards.
The ball is fumbled. Light loses ground and the sphere goes to K, U.
The boys from Lawrence buck the center with a slight gain. Sherman and Champlin make unsuccessful attempts to get through when the crisis-cross is again worked and Champlin covers twelve yards. Here the two teams struggle and after four downs the ball goes to Baker, by a wedge and a run by Brown the yellow caps advance fifteen yards. But after four other attempts the ball goes to K. U.
K. U gains ten yards by runs by Sherman and Hogg. From here the ball is successfully advanced almost to Baker's goal line by Champlin, Sherman and Jewett. Here the ball is fumbled, but the error is sayed by Williamson. Champlain and Sherman then made slight gains and by a mighty effort Champlin is shoved through the center and a second touch down is scored. Hoog kicks almost a phenomenal goal
Baker then for the first time puts the ball inside of K. U.'s twenty-five yard line by means of a wedge, a turtle back play, and a run by Goodale. Light attempts a run, but is thrown so hard by Sherman and Frederick that he loses the ball, and quick as a flash Hogg drops on it, about five yards from the University goal line.
from the side of the field against a strong wind. Score—K, K. U, 12, Baker 0. Bedlam is let loose by the wearers of the crimson.
Sherman fails to make a gain, but Chaplain makes a brilliant run, downs Gooddale and another yellow cap and makes a gain of about twewt vards before he is stopped. Three struggles and Sherman goes to the center of the field. Baker gets the ball on four downs.
Lightgoes around the right end and passes every body but Hogg, who brings his man. Three hard fought serigames follow but Baker is held and dime is called with Baker within six yards of K. S. U.'s goal line.
The second half is desperately contested. For a short time the ball is kept pretty near the center of the field, but by several well directed punts and runs by Champlin and Sherman, the latter covering fifteen yards, the ball is taken to within seven yards of the Baker goal line. Here Baker gets the ball in four powns. Goodale attempts to go through the center but is carried back by Williamson. Goodale attempts to punt the ball but it starts low, hits Jewett and bounds back on Baker's goal line. Goodale slips and Dobson dives down on the ball and scores the third touch down for K. U. Hogg kicks goal for the third time. Score 18 to 0 in K. U.'s favor.
Baker becomes desperate and advances ten yards by three plays. Goodale punts to K. U.'s twenty-five yard line. Goodale then runs around the end and the ball is almost to the University goal line. Here excitement is intense. Only five minutes time remains for Baker to save a shut out. A struggle occurs here without a gain for either the crimson or yellow until Goodale goes almost on to the K. U. Goal line. By a desperate push Baker makes a touch down. Baker fails to kick goal. Score K. U, 18. Baker 4. K. U starts the ball but loses it to Baker and time is called with the pigskin on K. U.'s twenty five yard line. The K. U, yell and the crimson flags fill the field. Great enthusiasm. Baker sick at heart.
Following are the players of the two teams and their positions.

NOTES.
Sherman played at a disadvantage by reason of a swelling on his foot.
Champilia did noble work for K. U. Saturday
Baker, Baker, where art thou?
Hogg was a sure man on kicking goal
Capt. Kinzie was unable to play and the team was captured by Sherman.
Goodale was carefully looked after.
About 2,000 people witnessed the game and the best of feeling prevailed.
THE Y. M. C. A. GAME.
A game was played between the Y. M.
C. A. team of Kansas City and K. U.
Thanksgiving afternoon and resulted in
an easy victory for the University boys.
The score was K. U. 22. Y. M. C. C. 4.
Umpire Storrs and Referee Bloss gave general satisfaction.
The story of victory on the one hand
and defeat on the other is simply a story of practiced skill and condition pitted against inexperience, lack of team work and undeveloped strength which the possessors had not been trained to use to any sort of advantage.
We will not give the game in detail owing to lack of space. The University did not present her regular team. It was thought best to save Coleman and Williamson, the regular center and quarter, Huddleston took Coleman's place and was succeeded by Foster and Trutt took Williamson's place. In the first half the score was 6 to 4 in K. U.'s favor and the play was close and interesting but in the second half the Y. M. C.A. was winded and sixteen points were added to the crimson's score while the Y. M. S. A. team failed to score.
Capt. Kinzie played his first game and did well. Dobson, Champlin, Piaffard Sherman distinguished themselves. The two new men did well considering the fact that it was their first regular game and all the signals were new to them.
Tomorrow the Iowa State University meets the University of Kansas at Exposition park, Kansas City, Monday. December 14, Baker plays K.U. in Lawrence.

treat to all the students of the University but will especially be appreciated by his former students who have a warm place in their hearts for Prof. Canfield.
The Kansas City Luminary misquotes us and calls our foot ball heroes "demi-gogs." They were "damigods" but are so no longer. They are rivals of Jove himself. A thunder bolt from his mighty hand would fail to buck the center of our strong rush line with anything like success.
HEAT.

when he is pulled the hand cuffs iron.
him.
When a man says he is self made we never deny it; it is easily seen that some idiot did the job.
Beware of outward appearances. A man may have his shoes blacked and yet have a hole in his socks.
If women were as nice as they look when dressed for a party, the cynic would lose his job.
Death is that stage in the game of life where man is caught by bluffing and Gabriel takes the pot.
When it is rumored that a man is in love, all the women say "Who with?" The men grunt and murmur "Poor cuss." So goes the world.
CHEMISTRY NOTES.
There are over eighty students in the qualitative analysis class and as there are desks for only forty-eight, somebody is getting crowded.
Mr. A. Eicholt is taking special work on sugar in the chemical laboratory and will go to Cuba as an assistant to Paul Wilkinson on a sugar plantation about the first of December.
Mr. E. C. Franklin has constructed an apparatus for the liquefaction of sulphurate by pressure. By an ingenious arrangement of glass tubes, forced together and carried to the second story of the chemical building and filled with mercury an increase pressure can be produced, and this pressure can be regulated at will.
Prof. Bailey has received from the Washington and Lee View University, Va., a photograph of a meteorite, hitherto indescribed, in the possession of that institution, that resembles very closely the Tonganoxie meteorite recently described in the American Journal of Science. It would certainly be a great find if it should prove to be a long lost brother of our specimen.
As an example of the way in which the west is leading the east, it may be noted that the scientific men of Ohio are to organize an Academy of Science. This movement originates no doubt from Prof. N.A. Kellerman, formerly of the Kansas Agricultural college, who has been recently elected to the chair of biology in the Ohio State University

Our foot ball team has scored a total of 136 points against a total of 36 points by the opposing teams. An average of only 20 on each game.
The lectures of Prof. Blackmar in K.C. are meeting with just appreciation. The professor has been requested to give another course in economics.

The Topeka Sunday Capital devotes a column space to the eighth monthly report of Chancellor Snow's chinch bug experiments. The Capital takes great interest in K.S.U. affairs.
On to K. C.! Don't fail to go Saturday and cheer the boys on to victory. We have often made this request, before and the students have responded nobly. We need you again. Victory is already within our grasp.
THE little city of Olathe shows considerable energy in being the first of the smaller cities of the state to effect a University Extension organization. A number of lectures have already been given and much interest awakened.
COLORED policemen were conspicuous by their absence at the ball game Saturday. This is a move in the right direction. What does an ignorant darkey know about students, and how much attention do they pay to his demands? The action of the Baldwin authorities is wise and should be followed by Lawrence.
We believe that some changes showed be made in the number of games of foot ball in the triangular leagues next year. There is no necessity for playing a college more than once unless there is a tie. Our men have already done enough hard work and are not through yet. One game tests the ability of a team as well as half a dozen.
THE greatest weakness of our foot ball team lies in its blocking. We believe that if our men are ever defeated it will be from this cause. Our rush line has so far stood like a stone wall, and every team that has bucked it has gone home covered with defeat. But when a man runs around the end he makes headway. Washburn would not have sooared at all in the last game if our blocking had boen as effective as our playing in other ways.
THE foot ball game at Baldwin Saturday was conducted in marked contrast to former games played there. The complaint of unfair treatment by both K. S. U. and Washburn when on Baker grounds
has had its effect upon the student body of Baker. The hoodlum element had been suppressed and the best of good feeling prevailed. The behavior of the Baker students did credit to them. When Baker sends her delegation to Lawrence we will extend to them every courtesy.
Tomorrow our invincible foot ball team will meet upon the arena at Kansas City the foot ball team of Iowa State University. Unlike our team I. S. U. has already suffered defeat and for this reason will make almost superhuman efforts to regain their lost prestige by defeatour famous team. Of course we will disappoint them but we will have to work hard to do so. The game will certainly be a battle royal.
The university of Missouri has at last, in some measure, awakened from the lethargy in which she has been plunged for the last half century. She has awakened to the fact that there is a young and vigorous institution near her on the west that has been up and doing while she has been asleep. When the University Extension was first organized in Kansas City, invitations were sent to the universities of Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri. K. S. U. quickly responded and offered a choice of nineteen lectures for the course. For some time Missouri was not heard from and not until the course was well under way did she come forward. She now offers the people of Kansas City, after a delay of two months, a course of eleven lectures and is striving hard to overcome the loss she has sustained by her procrastination. We would advise M. U. to keep her eyes open in the future.
MR. E.W. PALMER has kindly consented to write the editorials and look after the Courier for the next two weeks while the editor devotes his time to the Christmas number. The Christmas number will consist of twenty-eight pages filled with interesting matter and illustrations. The illustrations will be of first class workmanship. The business managers have placed the price at fifteen cents per copy. The Christmas supplement will only be sent free of charge to paid up subscribers.
THE Univerity Review came out Wednesdry. This issue is a credit to the University and to the editor in chief. The first article by Pres.W.A. Quayle, "The Relation of State and Denominational Schools" is of much interest. In this article President Quayle clearly show the true relation of state and denominational schools, and shows that both are necessary. Miss Gertrude Crotty, in the article, "Some Statistics Relating to the Health of College Women," shows much patient thought and thorough research. Miss Crotty believes that college work instead of being detrimental is "a discipline and tonic" to women.
"Fearless" Fred Funston in his iminitable style describes a wedding in the Mohave desert. Steta Takashima, who is well known to a number of K. S. U students, writes a very entertaining article on "The Japanese Students in America." As almost every college in the United States has one or more students from Japan, this article is of special interest to college men. We commend a careful perusal of the Review by the students.
SINCE the last issue of the COURIER our "invincible" foot ball team has scored two more victories. The continued success of our team can not fail to be a source of pride to every student of the University. The University has had more free advertising this year than ever before. Go where you will through the state and you will find the University discussed; Chancellor Snow's achievements; the University Extension and the never failing foot ball team all come in for a share. We are glad to know that the people of the state are awakening to the fact that we have a state University. This awakening means a larger attendance, larger appropriations, and a widening of the influence of the University.
Crimson.
To the Editor of the COURIER:
In-as-much as it is not yet settled what will be the University colors for the future, and as a writer in your last issue advocated standing by the old colors, it seems proper that some statement should be made of the grounds in favor of crimson. The purpose for which the University should have colors is not that they may be an object of sentiment, and therefore something too delicate for every day use, but rather that the wearing of these colors may lend distinction and attract attention just as a model college yell is noted for its sounding qualities rather than for its euphonious combinations. We want crimson, or some equally distinctive color because it is at all times obtainable in sufficient quantity and shapes to be effective; it is suitable for ball players' caps, belts and stockings; it be worn in neckties and handkerchiefs, and many ladies have been so loyal to the Athletic Association this fall as to appear at the games in crimson dresses. It is a color that newspapaper men can easily take note of as shown by the constant reference to the "victorious crimson" in connection with our foot ball games this games. How many papers in Kansas City or Topeka would have ever mentioned sky blue and corn-yellow? As to its being symbolic, it certainly as appropriate to indicate the warm generous spirit, the quick, sharp characteristics of the Kansas student by means of crimson as to persist in colors that are only agricultural in their significance. Those who have opposed a change have tried to raise the cry of "imitation" as though it were possible to get a color not already
held by some of the numerous colleges in the United States. Michigan University has sky blue and corn-yellow, why not as well imitate Harvard as Michigan? Of course we cannot but respect the opinions of our past graduates and students in this matter, but since it is in the way of athletic contests that colors are destined to play their large share, and since these contests are becoming more and more important, it behooves us to act and act wisely.

OH YË BRAVES!!
The Battle Scarred Veterans of our Foot Ball Team Enjoy Some of the Pleasures of Victory.
The foot ball men feel happy today, but not so happy as last Wednesday night. The happiness today is only a reflect of the fullness of joy they experienced on that evening when they were sitting around the well-filled board of Prof. Greene.
Mrs. Greene was assisted in entertaining the boys by Mrs. Will Bullene and Mrs. Frank Webster. Prof. Hopkins was not able to be paesent much to the disappointment of all, through the sudden illness of his wife.
Prof Greene determined several days ago to to give the boys a banquet if they succeeded in beating the Baker team. We all know the glowing results of that game. The Professor was as good as his word and Wednesday evening the sturdy vetearns of the first eleven and a goodly portion of the second partook of the feast of good things spread upon the hospitable board of the genial professor and his worthy wife.
The boys entered fully into the spirit of the occasion and passed a most enjoyable time. They took only two hours to do full justice to the bountiful feast. After supper cards were indulged in for a time.
The foot ball men present were as follows: Coleman, Mendell, Piatt, Dobson, Huddleston, Sherman, Hogg, Champlin, Jewett, Fredericks, Williamson, Mustard, Foster, Truitt, Kinzie, Brown, Kutz and Baldridge.
New Lecture Courses.
The Kansas City society for the extension of University teaching is constantly branching out in its work and organizing new courses of lectures in different lines as fast as the required number of tickets can be sold. The executive committee of the society is now arranging for a course of lectures on "German Language and Literature," by Prof. W. H. Carruth to begin soon. A course on "Semitic Language and Biblical History," by Prof. Blackwell of the Missouri State University, in which a large number of ministers of the city are interested, is also being arranged. A course in "Modern Applications of Electricity" and one in "Greek Art in Literature" are proving the first choice of a great many applicants, and classes will be formed as soon as a sufficient number of applicants are secured.
The courses already established are not losing any of their popularity and the attendance at each lecture is larger than at the previous one.

Irish Corporal.
At the Opera House, Saturday, Dec. 5.—A fine emotional, military play.—The Irish Corporal, produced at the Alhambra yesterday afternoon and evening to the capacity of the house. It is one of the best plays of its order ever seen at popular prices in this city. The story is one of absorbing interest, and the characters are all drawn from the late war in masterly style. The scene of the piece alternates between north and south, and there are chances for the display of lovely scenery that has been taken full advantage of by the scenic artists. Nothing has been left undone to have the play mounted in the most approved manner, and the company is one of recognized excellence throughout. —Chicago Tribune.

An Evening with Longfellow.
Longfellow's beautiful poem, The Golden Legend, has been dramatized, and will be given by Unity Club next Thursday night at the Unitarian church. This poem is one of Longfellow's masterpieces, and to see it illustrated dramatically will be a rare intellectual treat. The story is an old one but will have a new interest for all who witness it as told by the actors impersonating the characters. The cast is largely made up from the University.
Professor and Mrs. Carruth will represent Elsie's parents. Geneveive Howland, the Angel; Ed Franklin the Forrester with comet accompainment; Jean Bowersock and Constance Carruth the children. A band of singing monks will be introduced, the monks all being University students.
Miss Hulme taking the part of Elsie;John Whitman, Prince Henry; Russell Whitman, Lucifer (a polite name for hs satanic majesty.)
The opportunity to hear and see this fascinating drama should be improved by all students who can attend. Tickets 25 cents will be sold at the door.

Coolness in e. Mixed College.
Coolness in a Mixed College.
There is a coolness between the boys and the girls of the Stanford university. It all came about from a question of propriety. The boys gave a ball in their dormitory hall on Monday night, to which they invited all the girl students, as well as the professors. Elaborate preparations were made, and the young men anticipated an evening of enjoyment. They hired a band, and had the dormitory beautifully decorated.
One or two of the more modest and refining of the maidens in the girls' dormitory were shocked at the avowed intention of some of the girls to attend the bull, and called a meeting of the girls, at which there was a long discussion of the affair.
Many of the fair students said they could see no harm in going to the ball as long as the professors were willing, but the more prudish damams read a strong lecture on the cvilis of such doings, and on a vote, there was a majority in favor of not attending the ball. So none of them went.
The boys waited long for the coming of the fair ones, but they came not. At first the collegians were very merry. Then they took the dancing floor themselves and made a "stag" party of it. They say, however, that for future festivities they will send no invitations to the girl students. This suits the ultramodest among the latter, but the sociable girls feel crushed.-San Francisco Chronicle.
To Celebrate the Marseillise.
Another effort is being made by the inhabitants of Choisy-le-Roi, outside Paris, to observe with much solemnity and ceremony.1 what is vaguely called the "Centen- y of the Marseillaise." Choisy-le-Roi Juinus to possess the dust of Rouget de Ubèl—the composer of the hymn—who was buried there in 1836, his birthplace being Lons-le-Saunier, in the department of the Jura. On this account the members of the borough council consider that they have the right to take the initiative in organizing a Right Republican festival this year, as the Marseillaise, under the title of "Chant de Guerre de l'Armee du Rhin," was first heard in 1792.
President Carnot is to be asked to become honorary president of the committee of the fete, and appeals $^3$ funds will be made to all the cities, ad also to communes which possess ; ore than 4,000 inhabitants. No date as yet has been fixed for the celebration of the centenary, to which it is presumed that every patriotic Frenchman will give his sentimental and sympathetic—if not practical and pecuniary—support.—Paris Cor. London Telegraph
A Much Traveled Volume.
In opening a package of books wrapped in tin, the custom house inspectors cut with a knife the binding, by Ruban, of a "Poor Richard Almanack." The importer made no claim for damage from the government, paid the duty, returned the book to Paris to be rebound and wrote an ode to Diama of Politics, goddess of book lovers, in gratitude for the miraculous escape of the text of his Almanack. The book, rebound, came back fifteen days ago. The owner supposes that it is intact, but he does not know, and he cannot learn even by paying the duty again, for the official want, a new invoice, and the importer is naive enough to think that he can persuade the official that the first invoice, which is filed at the custom house, accurately describes the book on its fourth voyage across the Atlantic.—New York Times.
A Russo-Chinese Railway.
A Russo-Chinese railway is reported as the objective point of negotiations now going on between Russian and Chinese representatives. Russia wants the right to build a railway from Vladivostock, the Pacific terminal of the proposed Siberian railway, across the northern boundary of Corea to Tien-Tsin, and thence to Shanghai. The alleged object is quick transit of Chinese tea and silk to Europe. The Chinese, however, are very jealous of Russian influence in the east, and will probably decline Russian aid in railway building.—Engineering News.

The Courier in New York.
Mr. E. P. Allen, who attended K. U last year writes from New York concerning the Courier in an entertaining fashion. Here is an extract: "I get the Courier every week and, ooh! how long it seems from one Tuesday evening to another. I always hurry home faster on that particular evening than upon any other of the week. I hurry through dinner and rush to my room and 'there is my Courier. I hastily open it, trim my candle and literally absorb all that 'is in that precious paper. I read everything from the 'head' to the last line of the advertisements. It transports me, body mind and soul, once again to Lawrence What a motive power the Courier has! I often wonder if other K. U. sutes are affected as I am, and now excited I become when reading about the wondrous foot ball victories. T a great game between Princeton and Yale in this city, to me pales into insignificance when compared to K. U's achievements on the "field de kick." In reading the splendid Courier accounts, I am frequently on the point of breaking out with a "Rock chalk" that would almost wake a Few York policeman
I must congratulate the present Counter staff upon the "make up" and "get up of the paper" Coming from an exhaustor, of course that is expert testimony."
From the above we would infer that although eighteen hundred miles away, E 's loyalty to K. U. is as strong as ever.

K.S.U. 14----I.S.U: 12
That was the Score when K. S. U Left the Field.
A Beautiful Contest which End
cd in a Wrangle.
The long looked for game between the foot ball teams representing the University of Kansas and the University of Iowa was played in Kansas City last Saturday afternoon.
A large crowd of Iowa students be decked in old gold was on one side of the field and on the other side could be seen the contents of three cars who were covered with crimson, their yells even being crimson.
It was the hardest fought contest that K, U. has participated in this year. At times it almost approached viciousness. Blood flowed quite freely and two of the Iowa men were carried from the field.
Until the wrangle came the game was a pretty one. The two teams struggled desperately. At first the K. U. boys were unable to cope with the rushes of the I.S. U. boys, but in the second half the conditions were reversed and the Iowa team was unable to stop the wedge of K. U. Each team scored a touch down from the center of the field by a series of rushes.]
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, DECEMBER, 11 1891.
The lowians had a new kind of a wedge. They would lock their arms about each other, duck their heads and start whirling round and round. At the start our boys could not stop this wheel play but later in the game the wheel frequently lacked oil. K. U. used her V wedge in grand style.
This playing of both teams was brilliant. Champlin and Kinzie of the Kansas and German and Elliot of the Iowa's being especially meritorious for their fine playing. Our boys have improved greatly in their blocking,
The game ended in this way. Holbrook of Iowa and Bloss of Topeka have been selected as referee and umpire respectively and from the first it was apparent that K. U. was getting the worst of Holbrook's decisions. About fifteen minutes before the end of the second half the score 14 to 12 in favor of K. S. U., Hogg failed to kick goal and Larrabee took the ball and instead of starting off with a wedge or a free kick he put ball in play by a place kick, at least so said the referee, and then ran down the field to within fifteen yards of the Kansas goal. Here the wrangle commenced, Referee Holbrooke said the ball was in play and Umpire Bloss said it wasn't. The referee's decision went and Capt. Kinzeus called his men on the field. Then came one of the most absurd decisions imaginable. The referee called play after the Kansans had withdrawn from the field and let the I. S. U.'s score six more points with no team opposing them. He then gave the game to Iowa by a score of 18 to 14. Mr. Holbrook can show no rule upon which he based his decision. The real score was K. U. 14, I. U. 12. Besides the doubt of the manner in which Larrabee put the ball in play, one of the Iowa boys was off side when the ball was put in play. This game will result, however, in the selection of disinterested parties to referee and umpire the game hereafter. Sherman did not play his leg being a little weak yet. He will be all right for the Baker game tomorrow.
The game began at 2:30 o'clock. Captain Pierce won the toss and took the ball. Captain Kinzie took the north end
of the field. The teams lined up as follows:
Iowa             positions      K, U
Balley           Left end        Dobson
Bill Larson       Left tackle     Jewett
Wooslion        Left guard     Fredericke
Sill s           Concord    Collard
Fickes          Left guard    Huddlon st
Sarand          Right tackle    Montahl
Kallgenb g     Right end      Sherman
Ferren           Buff backe     Champi
German          | Buff backe     Champi
THE PLAY IN DETAIL.
The Iowans started off with a vim. Putting their arms about each other and ducking down their heads they gave K, U. its first taste of a wheel rush. German came out of the crowd and before he was downed had gone twenty yards. The ball was then given to Ferren, but he ran back and across the field. Williamson made a pretty tackle and downed him for a loss of ten yards. The ball was dropped in the next rush and in the scramble Iowa lost five yards of the gain. Gn the next rush Iowa gained four yards, in the scrimmage that followed there was no gain and Kansas lost the oball, Kollenberg was hurt in this rush. His left knee was sprained and he was carded off the field.
Kansas started off with the "V" shaped wedge, and was downed with a gain of two yards. In the second rush the two teams came together like two engines with all steam on and the ball went down. No gain. On the third down the requisite gain was made with the wedge, Kinzie bucked the line for two yards and then went around the right end and advanced five yards more. Hogg tried the left end, but made no gain. The wedge was then attempted and the Iowans were sent back three yards further. In the next rush Sanford broke through the line and got the ball from Champia.
Iowa tried its wedge again, but made no gain. In its next rushes gains of five yards were made. The Iowans were fixed for another ball with their wheel German was given the ball. The wheel was rolling along very nicely when all of a sudden Kinken was seen to come out of the crown with the ball. He had a clear field between him and the Iowa goal and made a touch down from which flogg kicked goal.
The captain of the Kansas had got the ball in the scrimmage. German had let it get away from him. It was the first time the Kansas cohorts had had a chance to yell and they made things hum for a few minutes.
Piece was given the ball and started around the left end. He found Dobson there, however, and was thrown about ten feet toward his goal. Dobson is a bad man to collide with. The wheel was then tried again and when it stopped rolling Elliot fell with the ball. He had made a gain of fifteen yards. German was sent around the right end, but ran back and, when downed by Williamson, he had lost ground. The referee called third down and Iowa triad the wheel again in orler to make the requisite gain, but failed and the ball went to Kansas.
When the teams lined up there was a rush, a scrimmage, a wild tangle of arms, legs and feet. The young men were un tied and Stiles, the center rush of Iowa, had the ball.
Kansas had the wheel to fight against again and was again run over by it. Iowa's first gain was for ten yards. From then on there was a series of as brilliant rushes as were ever seen on foot ball field. The Iowaans would make a gain of two or three yards and then on the third down would lock their arms about each other and try their invincible wheel for the requisite gain. When the ball with repeated rushes was carried to the ten yard line Elliott was given it to buck the line. He went at it like a fiend and carried two of the Kansans through the goal posts with him, scoring a tough down. Larrabee kicked goal, tiring the score. It was 6 6.
K. U. started from the center with the
wedge and made a gain of six yards. In the next rush there was no gain. Kinkle then bucked the line for a gain of two yards. Hogg was next called upon for a kick but didn't do much in the wind and Larabee dropped on the ball.
For Iowa Larrabee first tried the left end and made three yards. The wedge was then tried for a slight gain. The second wedge lost a yard and a half and on the third down the ball went to Kansas.
In the line up Siles and Elliott wer too much for the Kansas center. They broke through without much trouble. Kinzie fumbled the ball the first time and lost ground. In the second rush Siles broke through and carried Kinzie back again for four yards. A moment CONTINUED ON THIRD PAGE
The Seminary.
The Seminary of Historical and Political Science held its regular meeting Friday afternoon at 3 p. m. In the absence of Prof. Blackmar, Prof. Hodder presided. The subject considered was Municipal Government. Prof. Hodder opened the seminary by stating that the study of municipal government in the United States was of recent date and that we are beginning to see where our defects lay and some of the remedies for them. We study European municipal government to get ideas for our own but the government in foreign cities is not the best adopted to the United States
W. B, Kinzie read the first paper on "Local government in England and the municipal government of Glasgow." Glasgow is an old city but has been regenerated during the last twenty years on account of the wise and benficient city government.
Athletic Board Meeting
Mr. E. W. Smith followed with a paper on The Municipal Government cut of London. The municipal government of London is a curious compound. In London proper consisting of a small fraction of that great city, the government established by the guilds still runs while the rest of the city has no corporate existence
H. B. Hall next read an article on Municipal Government in Paris, followed by H E. Copper on the Berlin and Vienna. All these papers were well written and pointed out the various degrees of excellence in municipal government in these typical cities.
The Board met in regular session Monday afternoon, most of the members being present. After considerable routine business had been disposed of the question of another game of foot ball in Kansas City was discussed and the manage of the team was instructed to send a challenge to the Iowa team for a game Dec 21, at the time of Sir Edwin Arnold's lecture in Kansas City. A communication was received from the M. S U athletic association asking that a delegate be appointed to represent K S. U. in a meeting to be held in Kansas City Dec. 28, for the purpose of arranging for an Athletic League comprising the state universities of Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska, and Kansas. Prof E. M. Hopkius was elected the Kansas delegate. A committee with J. M. Challis as chairman was appointed to arrange for the production of a revised version of Julius Caesar sometime after Christmas. The board will not meet again in regular session before the holidays as every one will attend the funeral obsequies of the Baker foot ball team next Monday.
K. U, vs. Baker.
Next Monday the last game between these teams will be played in this city. Game will be called promptly at 2:30 Baker will no doubt make a desperate attempt to win as it is her last chance.

Edwin Arnold, England's great poet, will lecture on the 21st and 23rd of this month in Kansas City. A large delegation from here will attend.

Invitations were issued last Saturday for the Sigma Chi party which takes place this evening. About sixty couple will attend and it will be one of the 'swellest' affairs of the season.
Four of our last year's students are working on newspapers. Paul Hudson on the Topeka Capital; Clarence Southwick on the Kansas City Journal, Phil Nolton on the Newton Republican, and Will Everton on the Kansas City Star.
A challenge has been sent to the Iowa University team for a game on the 21st. The boys know they can defeat them again and are anxious that the match be arranged. Disinterested parties will be selected toUMPire and referee the game if it takes place.
There is great fun in store for the entire University tomorrow. The seniors and juniors will meet on the field deck. Blood will probably flow freely. Many long standing scores will be paid off. The sophies and freshies will no doubt be on hand to make it warm for the proud upper class men.

Prof. Blake, of Kansas State University, has a new theory as the recent experiments in rain making. It is that the condensation is caused by the present ce small particles of dust. He supports his novel position by alleging that hailstones, which are frozen raindrops, often have mechal consisting a of tiny speck of dust or cinder.
Whether there be anything in this theory or not we have not the data at hand to determine. But the fact that the professor of a western university has advanced a theory whi ch, if true will revolutionize the agricultural system of large portion of the world can but be o interest and pride to all students in western colleges.—Vodelte Reporter.
Seminary Notes
The December number of the above appeared the first of this week. It includes an article on Early Municipal Government in Chicago by Prof. F. H. Hodder and the paper read before the Seminary of Sociology from the Preachers Standpoint by Chas. M. Shouldon. Both are very interesting and instructive articles. A short article on Historical Study at Johns Hopkins University is given. Editorially this issue surpasses all previous numbers. We bespeak a liberal support to Seminary Notes on the part of all interested in the prosperity of our University. Address all communicat ons to Prof. Blackmar,
Baker vs. Washburn.
Baker played in Topeka Monday and literally wiped the earth with Washburn. The score was 46 to 0. Washburn was handicapped however by the snow as it interfered with their running, which is their strong point. Brown and Sterling umpred and refereed the game satisfactorily to both parties.

The Kansas papers are all proud of our "leven." Nearly every paper has something to say about our victories between the goals.
WHAT's the matter with an Annual? We have plenty of material for one and lots of talent that needs developing in working it up.
The trouble with the foot ball game Saturday, was that our team played against twelve men, and the twelfth man was the biggest in the crowd. ___
OUR foot ball team is still invincible. 14 to 12 against Iowa gives Kansas the championship of four states, Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa and Kansas.
Holbrook, the S. U. I referee,
seems to be a regular appendage of
the team. He goes with the team
wherever it goes to play a game, and
the team refuses to play unless he
is chosen referee. Shame on such
a spirit!
K. S. U. is attracting more attention every week. The Sunday K. C. Journal had a two column write up of Prof. Dyche and his work shop. The Sunday Capital devoted two columns to Prof. Blackmar. Verily K.S.U. waxeth greater every day.
THE result of Saturday's foot ball game should be a warning to us in all future contests. A referee who is interested in one team can hardly fail to favor it. But no matter how fair he may try to be he his decisions are liable to be misconstrued. No man should be selected as umpire who is in any way connected with either school.
ORATORICAL prospects this year are good. The papers of the various colleges in the Oratorical Association report a large number who will enter the various local contests. Every man who intends to compete this year ought to be hard at work. Orations written on the spur of the moment are not the kind that knock the persimmon.
THE COURIER would like to see the tennis management get a hustle on itself and manage its tennis affairs in the future much better than it has done this fall. We have not yet heard which way the championship in tennis was decided and we would like to be sure that it comes to K.S.U. The present tennis directors need a little prudding up so as to be able to keep up with the vehicle of K.S.U. athletics. We do hope you will get a move on yourself and by the assistance of our best tennis players keep the tennis pennant permanent in this historic city.
The proposed Interstate Athletic league between the universities of Nebraska, Missouri, Iowa and Kansas is to be heartily commended. The Courier some time ago advocated the formation of such an organization and we are glad to see that some action has been taken. The advantages of such a league are many. In the first place it will be an organization between schools of equal standing. To win a victory from an inferior college is no particular credit, while to be beaten is a positive disgrace. Again it will stimulate athletics and make a place on a contest to be held in greater honor than ever. It will give us an opportunity to compare ourselves with the live schools of the west and will spur up college spirit to a higher pitch.
KANSAS University team has a clean record. Not only as to victories, but the reports taken from other college papers stamp them as true gentlemen, as well as sturdy foot ball players: Professor Hopkins manages and trains the team and his advice to the men given in the columns of the Courier, the K S. U. paper, just before starting for a game, is summed up in the words: "Above all things be men on the field." The S. U.I. team now meets a worthy opponent indeed, and it will be worth the men's best efforts to win. So far we have not done anything remarkable in the line of winning games. We have won two and lost two. But we have made a good start, and if the game with Kansas is added to the list of games won we shall feel that the hard work of the team during the fall has been compensated.—Vidette Reporter.
K. S. U. has at all time and all places acted fair and square and the above from the Vidette Reporter shows the good effect produced abroad by our clear record.

A Last word Before the Championship Game.
The result of the Iowa game on Saturday was in no sense a defeat; but it was worse than a defeat from the standpoint taken by the management throughout the season. The aim in view has been not to win games primarily but to establish the reputation of the team and University for fair play and gentlemanly behavior under all circumstances, thus involving the determination to stand any amount of unfair treatment without descending to reciprocate in any way. The management felt no small pride in the way in which the first Baker game was played, entirely apart from the score that was made, and perhaps felt somewhat too sure that no trouble would need be apprehended in future games. Consequently the managers desire to take the entire responsibility for the mistake that was made on Saturday. Iowa's frank recognition of our stand in regard to the ethics of football coupled with the mention of a man for referee who was implied to be in full sympathy with our positions, a perfect gentleman and absolutely impartial, led to the violation of the only safe role in games likely to be close, that referee and umpire must be chosen from disinterested parties. Thus while nothing in the public opinion can justify leaving the field the real blame does not rest with the team.
It is however not likely that either manager or team will repeat the slander; and there is yet time to heal the coming game with Baker. Our efforts to put an end to past unpleasantness have been met more than half way by the Baker management, and they will visit us on Monday in the fullest assurance of courteous treatment. If any violation of courtesy should occur through oversight on our part, the disgrace will be lasting, while if this game is "played" in the same spirit as was the last one there need
never be any need again to dig up the hatchet between the two institutions
In view of our responsibility as hosts, and the probable presence at the game of a certain element hard to control, each man having the best interests of this University at heart should constitute himself a member of a special committee to preserve order on the grounds. The policing of the grounds is especially important, both as to number and selection of deputies. In this matter Baker set us a splendid example. The rules with reference to "guying" and coaching from behind the ropes should be rigidly observed; the latter more carefully than was done in the game at Baker. The spectators have often interfered with the team signals, when the play was near side lines, by shouting out the name of the man with the ball, and by the ill-advised cheering. It is earnestly desired that both these matters be remembered, and that enthusiasm be kept well in check when its expression most interfere with work upon the field.
Finally, and it is not too much to ask, in view of the spirit in which they come, let us cheer for Baker. If we win it will be easy, but if Baker wins, as she means to win if at all, by fairly earning the victory, a greater victory may even then be won by K. S. U. if she will swallow her disappointment, and render permanent the present order of good feeling by a hearty cheer for the winners E. M. HOPKINS.
SHIELD OF PHIKAPPA PSI
It Blazes with Beauty and Glows with Good Fellowship.
There was a lively time at the Coats house in Kansas City Friday evening. Some of the old boys and some of the young boys of the college fraternity, Phi Kappa Psi, met each other there, gave the grip and the password, feasted, drank and made merry. There were men there who had eaten of the tree of knowledge in New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and other states. But the mystic bonds of Phi Kappi Psi made them brothers and of one accord. The menu which these brothers discussed was one of those elegant and appropriate affairs for which the Coates house is noted, and was duly appreciated, and the Kansas boys found much therein that soothed the inner man.
Dr. George C. Mosher presided over the toasts, which were done to a turn. Prof. Hodder, of the Kansas State University, Attorney W. A. Powell of this city, Charles S. Gleed, of Topeka, Denton Dunn of this city, H. S. Hadley of Lawrence and others responded to toasts and made short talks on college and fraternity themes or told stories of freshman and sophomore days.
Concert, and Oratorio.
Concert, and Oratorio.
The annual Christmas concert of of the School of Music takes place next Tuesday evening in University Hall. The program will be very attractive, as the school graduates five seniors this year in the Artists course, all of whom will play piano-forte selections Several fine vocal selections and a ladies chorus will be on the program. Prof. Buch will play a violin selection and the new department of dramatic art will be represented by a dramatic recitation. The program is given elsewhere. The concert is free to all students.
THE MESSAIAIL."
The performance of Handel's great oratorio "The Messiah" at Christmas is an annual event in all the large cities in this country and England. It is seldom heard however in smaller cities, owing to the difficulty of the work, and the lack of a sufficient number of voices necessary for its proper rendering Prof. Penny and the School of Music certainly deserve much credit for so large an undertaking, and that it will be a success no one questions. The chorus numbes 70 voices nearly all of whom are University students. Three of the soloists are students in the School of Music. Miss Ethel Hayes, soprano; Miss Titsworth, soprano; and Miss Harriet Fellows, contratto.
The quartette of soloists are Mrs. Cyrus Crane (formerly Miss Josie Hutchel) of Kansas City, soprano; Mrs. Professor Dunlap, contralto. Mr. Oliver C. Huthinson,of Kansas City, bass.
Mr. Schutt, of the University, tenor.
The celebrated concert organist,
Mr. Frank P. Fisk of Kansas City
is the accp a ist. It will thus be
seen that Prof. Penny has secured
a chorus and soloists thorougly
capable of giving a fine presenta-
tion of this great work.

SIZED UP AS A RUSTLER.
He Proved Quite Harmless, However,
Notwithstanding His Appearance.
He had on on a cowboy's hat—he man long hair and fierce black eyes—there was a claw from the foot of a grizzly bear daughing from his watch chain. You could size him up only in one way—he had killed his man, or perhaps half a dozen of them. If he hadn't fought Indians and stood up to the bad, bad men of the far west, then his books beiled him. He was a quiet, unostentious man, as all nervy men are. He was reading a dime novel, as all game men do when they travel. Now and then he felt down the back of his neck to see if his bowie knife was cuddling up to his spine in a proper manner, and now and then he reached down to his boot legs to see that his cargo of revolvers hadn't shifted.
Three or four of us, after taking plenty of time to size him up, decided to ask him how and where he got the wound which had left the scar clear across his left cheek. It looked like the work of Sitting Bull's tomahawk, but we wanted the particulars. So it was agreed that I should work him up to tell his story, and after a quarter of an hour of diplomacy I had shaped matters so I dared observe:
"Oh, the story don't amount to much," he modestly remarked.
"Yes, sir, there is," he replied.
"That is a bad scar you have on your neck, and there is no doubt a story conspires."
"But you certainly had a close call.
How many Indians were around you?"
"We should like to hear the particulars, if you have no objection."
"Oh! Perhaps you were in a western stage when it was held up, and you got that scar in fighting off the road agents?"
"Never saw a road agent in my life," he answered.
"Well, perhaps you'd be kind, enough to explain how you got that scar?"
"Tackled by a bad man perhaps"
"I will. I went into a restaurant and ordered a pumpkin pie. The waiter brought me a squash pie instead. I kicked. The owner of the place, who was a woman, got mad and slashed me with an old case knife. I afterward settled with her for three dollars in cash. That's the story, sir."
"And may I ask who you are?" I inquired, as an awful silence fell upon our crowd.
"These things? Oh, I got 'em of an actor for four dollars. He had to sell out or walk home, and as the walking wasn't nood he sold out."
"But why—why are you wearing that hat and other things belonging to a western terror?" I asked.
From ex-President Cleveland's speech about the Pilgrim fathers: "We cannot recall their history and what they did and established and what they taught without also recalling that there have been pilgrims from New England, who finding their way to every part of the land, have taken with them those habits, opinions and sentiments which, having an early origin in American soil, should be best suited to American life everywhere and should be the best guarantees in every situation of the preservation in their integrity and purity of American institutions."
Chauncey M. Depew has promised that New York will do all in her power for the success of the Columbian exposition. 'Tis well. Now if Chauncey can stop the pens of the New York city editors till the people of the great state come into a condition of good will toward the fair maybe New York will yet make a creditable display of her resources in 1893.
"Certainly you can. I've been working for a farmer near Monroe all summer for 'leven dollars a month and found, but I quit the other day and am going to Toledo to get a stock of stomach bitters to sell on the road. Needn't nobody be afraid of me. I amn't loaded, and if I was I ain't got the sand to go off. Never tacked but one man, and I hain't got through running away from him vet."
Then we went to the other end of the car and tried to call the convention to order and do some resolving, but it was a failure. Everybody seemed to want to sit and think.-Detroit Free Press.
The Sailor and His Pets.
The Sailor and His Pets.
Jack is fond of pets, and when at sen is allowed to cultivate that fondness to a certain extent. The most hard hearted shipowner does not object to having one or two stray dogs or cats provided with homes on his vessel. And Jack is very grateful for this indulgence. It affords him deep pleasure to hold in his loving though rough embrace the innocent creature who, either by a cheerful wag of the tail or a responsive purr, assures him that his attentions are appreciated, and that the fact of his being lacking in personal attractions is not taken into consideration.
Jack loves the poor creature just as tenderly as if he were perfect. The ship's cat may be lean and uninviting in appearance, but this does not prevent Jack from petting it. Other pets are sometimes kept on board ship. It is not unusual for seamen on vessels returning from tropical ports to have pet monkeys or parrots. The captain's wife, who has her own way sometimes, turns her cabin into an aviary. Single captains have been known to keep pets on shipboard, although, as a rule, they seem ashamed to display any weakness of this description.—London Tit-Bits.
The Mansfield, Ohio, Daily Herald of recent date contains the following: "Years ago, a Richland county boy, William Barnes, of Washington township, varied his attendance at college at Delaware, Ohio, by teaching a winter term, of a country school, and among his pupils was] Preston B. Plumb, and being the biggest boy in school, young Plumb made the fires for the teacher. Some years ago it was our privilege to call on both of these Buckeye boys, both of them dwellers in Kansas, the Senator at Emporia, and Carter Wm. Barnes at Lawrence, Kansas. Both of them early removed to the West, both of them soldiers in the Union Army the teacher with possibly equal ability, but less push and self-assertion after the war settled down and still lives a quiet life in the beautiful city on the ]Kaw.t. The scholar forged ahead, and from eighteen-hundred and eighty-six to the hour of his death filled the public eye. Plumb was a pushing positive character, "and the people of Kansas and the whole country in his death have sustained a great loss"

ORATORICAL contest
LET us see that foot ball pennant in its materiality soon.
The last issue of the University Magazine has a very fine write up of Kansas University by V. L. Kellogg.
THE first thing everybody asked of the K. S. U. student returned returned home for his Christmas vacation was, "Why didn't your fellows beat that Washington University team?
LET our most mighty athletic association see that there is no wane of the athletic spirit in K. S. U., now that the foot ball season has ended. A Hare and Hounds club should be formed immediately and put into training. We must keep up with the vehicle of progress.
We are in receipt of the souvenir Christmas number of the Nebraska State Journal. It shows up the educational advantages of the state in a very favorable light. Chancellor Canfield receives some high praise and a good half tone cut.
THE College at Winfield is greatly excited over their local contest in oratory, and is making things extremely warm for the winner of the contest. It is claimed that his oration was the poorest one on the program and that he won through the favoritism of the judges. We are in no position to judge of the merits of the controversy, but would suggest that "wire pulling" and "log rolling" are not the characteris ics of a winning orator or a winning college.
THERE is some talk of organizing a moot senate this winter as an aid in keeping up with the politics of the times and for instruction in the working of legislative bodies. The scheme is an old one and has been tried before in K. S. U. without success. The Courier doubts as to whether such a moot senate would be an unqualified success without something to back it up and maintain an interest in it. At Oberlin college the students have something similar to a mood senate but which is far more "enthusing." They organize before a presidential nomination into a convention and nominate a candidate. This is one of the events of the school year there and is equal to an exciting oratorical contest. The Courier would champion neither a moot senate nor a moot convention but would rather see something of more originality. A moot farmers alliance for instance.

During the foot ball season just closed, the manager has paid the team no compliments, preferring to wait until the work was all done. That time has arrived and he now wishes to express publicly to the team and the second eleven his cordial appreciation of their labors: To Captain Kinzie for faithfulness in coaching and planning technics; to Sherman, Champlin, Hogg and Williamson for brilliant field work; to the rush line for doing their duty well and letting others get the cred it for it; to the second eleven for its campaign of all work and no glory, except prospective; to the association and University for moral, physical, and financial support. All have worked together in harmony, and we may well be proud of the result.
The improvement in the work of the team has been steady from the beginning of the season. As soon as a weak point has been discovered, the entire team has set to work to correct it; and this united effort has enabled us to accomplish what ordinarily requires an experienced coach. By continuing to work in this way, we can reach a much higher degree of efficiency; and we should not rest content with having proved ourselves equal to the strongest teams about us. There is no reason why we should not make a creditable showing against any team in the United States, if we care to do so and will make the proper effort. In this connection a word or two of suggestion with reference to the next season will be in place.
VALEDICTORY.
First our training must be more systematic and severe than it has been. All football candidates should board at one table, and the diet be carefully looked after. Systematic exercise during the summer must be kept up. Every man must adhere to the requirements of training from the moment that the season opens, and as much earlier as possible and steps must be taken to see that this is done. It will not do for any one man to presume on his superior ability, and to assume liberty to keep late hours, to smoke or to neglect any part of his training. Discipline cannot be expected unless all conform to it; and while undue severity in this respect would perhaps have been out of place in the beginning of our work, if we hope to do better than we have done, discipline must be enforced; and the man who fails to conform to requirements must forfeit his place. The loss of such a man may cripple the team temporarily, but will strengthen it in the long run
The season should be shortened; and to this end, the number of games of the state league should be reduced one-half. But three games are called for by the inter-state league, and all can easily be played before Thanksgiving.
Training and practice must begin with the first day of University work in the fall. Provision has already been made for this in the re-election of Captain Kinzie.
Attention to these points, with the same united effort that has marked the work of this season, will enable us to make a record even clearer than the present one. In the matter of courtesy to opposing teams, our record can hardly be improved; but we can live up to it,and continue to merit the respect of all whom we meet. The same disposition has been shown us by all our opponents, and the best thing to be said of the past season is that it has inaugurated an era of good feeling
A work should be said with reference to the interstate league just formed. The constitution and schedule adopted at Kansas City Dec. 28 will be submitted to the several universities for their approval, and any necessary changes can be made at the next meeting of the executive committee Oct.1. The schedule now stands as follows.
Nov. 5, Kansas vs Iowa, Kansas City; Nebraska vs Missouri, Omaha.
Nov, 14. Kansas vs Nebraska,
Lincoln; Missouri vs Iowa, Columbia.
Nov. 24- Kansas vs Missouri, Kansas City; Iowa vs Nebraska, at Omaha.
In order to pay expenses, it was thought best to play four of the six games in the large cities. The others are to alternate between the home grounds of the universities according to mutual agreement. That is, if we play Nebraska in Lincoln this year, next year that game will be played here; or the order can be reversed by the agreement of the two associations.
Copies of the constitution will be submitted to our association for criticism as soon as they can be printed.
The above games, with those of our own local,league, will give us plenty of hard work to do. Athletic interest is rapidly growing in the state universities, and in the cities where the games are to be played, and the outlook for next year's work is decidedly hopeful and inspiring,
OUR local contest in oratory this year promises to be of unusual interest. Sixteen men have handed in orations to the faculty committee and we may be sure that the six lucky orations will be of exceptional merit.
AMUSEMENTS.
GRACIE EMMET.
A full house should greet this clever little lady in her new play the "Pulse of New York" at the opera house on Jan. 13. It is a play of New York life that holds the interest of the audience from start to finish much of its success being due to the excellent stage settings as well as the clever acting.
JOHN DILLON.
Mr. Dillon's appearance at Bowersock opera house Monday, Jan. 11, will be hailed with delight by his old time admirers in this city. He is the veritable embodiment of wit and humor, whose sole mission seems to be, to excite the risabilities of his fellow men. The sight of his face seems to drive away dull care as sunshine disperses the fog. Seats on sale Saturday.
There is good skating on the river near the ice houses and the boys about town are taking advantage of it.
Professor Miller's Book.
Prof. Miller's new trigonometry has just been issued by the Boston text book publishing house of Leach, Shewing & Sandhorn. It is intended primarily for the K. S. U. classes, but its merit is such as pronounced by eastern college mathematicians, that it will soon find its way into more general use. A year and a half's work on Porfessor Miller's part has produced results which would most naturally be attributed to a much longer period of labor. In the small portion of this work credited to compilation only the best mathematical thinkers have been consulted. The book also recommends itself by the great length to which it carries out demonstrations, and by the extension of many of its formulae far beyond those of the current text books. Answers to the practical problems are not given, compelling the student to prove his work from other formule found in the book. Moreover the demonstrations in spherical trigonometry are much clearer than those commonly set forth. A chapter on trigonometric tables shows clearly now the natural functions of triangle measurement may be developed from the doctrine of limits, and also how the tables of logarithmic trigonometrical functions are obtained. The usual superfluous chapters on surveying and navigation have been omitted. Professor Miller has the pleasure of seeing his work gotten up in most artistic style by J. S. Cushing & Co., the Boston printers. The price is $13.50.
It is gratifying to know that the concert was a success financially notwithstanding the large guarantee necessary to secure the services of the company. A fine audience was present, including a full dress box party which added greatly to the metropolitan appearance of the house, an event by the way which was appreciated greatly by the artists, and as they said, "inspired them to do their best."
One of the most enjoyable events in connection with the visit of the company was the recital before the students of the school of music Friday by Mr Scharf, the pianist, and Ms Parmater, the contralto. A program consisting of twenty members from Liszt, others by Ruff, Sgambati, Wagner, Thomas and others, was greatly enjoyed by the large audience of students and friends present.
The feature was of course Musin's splendid violin playing. The variety of effects which he obtained from the instrument and the extreme delicacy of his playing have never been equalled here. Quartettes from "Rigolotto" and "Martha" were rendered with all the strength of Italian opera surroundings. Mrs. Tanner-Musin's voice is a phenomenal one in its compass and brilliance. Especially fine were the duets with the violin. Miss Parmenter's beautiful voice pleased greatly in her artistic ballad singing. Mr. Scharf was handicapped by a poor piano for concert playing, but he secured wonderful results from it, both in his solos and his accompaniments. Mr. Sanger's great basso and Mr. Dupuy's rich and ringing tenor were thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated.
The Concert.
It is seldom that Lawrence people have been so favored musically as they were Thursday evening by the Musin Concert company at the opera house. To listen to so large a company with every individual an artist of the first rank is a treat sodom enjoyed by a small city and it is simply necessary to state that every number on the program was enceded, (Musin being obliged to play twice after his Paganil one string number), to show how well pleased the audience was.
If you hear loud voices in your neighborhood at any time during the night, do not be alarmed, for it is only some of the University orators practicing their orations.
The local oratorical contest at Baker occurs this evening. A number of the boys from the University will attend.

SIZED UP AS A RUSTLER.
He Proved Quite Harmless, However,
Notwithstanding His Appearance.
He had on in a cowboy's hat—he had long hair and fierce black eyes—the there was a claw from the foot of a grizzly bear dangling from his watch chain. You could size him up in one way — he had killed his man, or perhaps half a dozen of them. If he hadn't fought Indians and stood up to the bad, bad men of the far west, then his looks belied him. He was a quiet, unostentious man, as all nervy men are. He was reading a novel, as all game men do when they travel. Now and then he felt down the back of his neck to see if his bowie knife was cuddling up to his spine in a proper manner, and now and then he reached down to his boot legs to see that his cargo of revolvers hadn't shifted.
Three or four of us, after taking plenty of time to size him up, decided to ask him how and where he got the wound which had left the scar clear across his left cheek. It looked like the work of Sitting Bull's tomahawk, but we wanted the particulars. So it was agreed that I should work him up to tell his story, and after a quarter of an hour of diplomacy I had shaped matters so I dared observe:
"That is a bad scar you have on your cheek, and there is no doubt a story connected with it."
"Yes, sir, there is," he replied.
"We should like to hear the particulars, if you have no objection."
"Oh, the story don't amount to much," he modestly remarked.
"But you certainly had a close call.
How many Indians were around you?"
"How many Indians were around?
Indians? I didn't see no Indians."
"Oh! Perhaps you were in a western staga when it was held up, and you got that scar in offing the road agents!"
"Never saw a road agent in my life, he answered.
"Tackled by a bad man perhaps?"
"Never saw a bad man."
"But you had a fight," I persisted.
"Well, perhaps you'd be kind enough to explain how you got that scar?"
"I will. I went into a restaurant and ordered a paupmie pie. The waiter brought me a squash pie instead. I kicked. The owner of the place, who was a woman, got mad and slashed me with an old case knife. I afterward settled with her for three dollars in cash. That's the story, sir."
"But why -why are you wearing that hat and other things belonging to a western terroir?" I asked.
"These things? Oh, I got 'om of an actor for four dollars. He had to sell out or walk home, and as the walking wasn't good he sold out."
"And may I ask who you are?" I inquired, as an awful silence fell upon our crowd.
"Certainly you can. I've been working for a farmer near Monroe all summer for 'leven dollars a month and found, but I quit the other day and am going to Toledo to get a stock of stomach bitters to sell on the road. Needn't nobody be afraid of me. I ain't loaded, and if I was I ain't got the sand to go off. Never tacked but one man, and I hain't got through running away from him yet."
Then we went to the other end of the car and tried to call the convention to order and do some resolving, but it was a failure. Everybody seemed to want to sit and think.-Detroit Free Press.
From ex-President Cleveland's speeches about the Pilgrim fathers: "We cannot recall their history and what they did and established and what they taught without also recalling that there have been pilgrims from New England, who finding their way to every part of the land, have taken with them those habits, opinions and sentiments which, having an early origin in American soil, should be best suited to American life everywhere and should be the best guarantees in every situation of the preservation in their integrity and purity of American institutions."
Chauuncy M. Depew has promised that New York will do all in her power for the success of the Columbian exposition. 'Tis well. Now if Chauuncy can stop the pens of the New York city editors till the people of the great state come into a condition of good will toward the fair maybe New York will yet make a creditable display of her resources in 1893.
The Sailor and His Pets.
The Sailor and His Sword
Jack is fond of pets, and when at son is allowed to cultivate that fondness to a certain extent. The most hard hearted shipowner does not object to having one or two stray dogs or cats provided with homes on his vessel. And Jack is very grateful for this indulgence. It affords him deep pleasure to hold in his loving though rough embrace the innocent creature who, either by a cheerful wag of the tail or a responsive purr, assures him that his attentions are appreciated, and that the fact of his being hacking in personal attractions is not taken into consideration.
Jack loves the poor creature just as tenderly as if he were perfect. The ship's cut may be lean and minivitting in appearance, but this does not prevent Jack from petting it. Other pets are sometimes kept on board ship. It is not unusual for scammon on vessels returning from tropical ports to have pet monkeys or parrots. The captain's wife, who has her own way sometimes, turns her cabin into an aviary. Single captains have been known to keep pets on shipboard, although, as a rule, they seem ashamed to display any weakness of this description.—London Tit-Bits.
The Mansfield, Ohio, Daily Herald of recent date contains the following: "Years ago, a Richland county boy, William Barnes, of Washington township, varied his attendance at college at Delaware, Ohio, by teaching a winter term, of a country school, and among his pupils was Preston B. Plumb, and being the biggest boy in school, young Plumb made the fires for the teacher. Some years ago it was our privilege to call on both of these Buckeye boys, both of them dwellers in Kansas, the Senator at Emporia, tend Cart Wm. Barnes at Lawrence, Kansas. Both of them early removed to the West, both of them soldiers in the Union Army; the teacher with possibly equal ability, but less push and self-assertion after the war settled down and still lives a quiet life in the beautiful city on the | Kaw. The scholar forged ahead, and from eighteen-hundred and-eighty-six to the death filled the public eye. The plumb of his death filled the public eye. The plumb was a pushing positive character,' and the people of Kansas sand the whole country in his death have sustained a great loss."

VALEDICTORY.
During the foot ball season just closed, the manager has paid the team no compliments, preferring to wait until the work was all done. That time has arrived and he now wishes to express publicly to the team and the second eleven his cordial appreciation of their labors: To Captain Kinzie for faithfulness in coaching and planning techniques; to Sherman, Champlin, Hogg and Williamson for brilliant field work; to the rush line for doing their duty well and letting others get the credit it for it; to the second eleven for its campaign of all work and no glory, except prospective; to the association and University for moral, physical, and financial support. All have worked together in harmony, and we may well be proud of the result.
The improvement in the work of the team has been steady from the beginning of the season. As soon as a weak point has been discovered, the entire team has set to work to correct it; and this united effort has enabled us to accomplish what ordinarily requires an experienced coach. By continuing to work in this way, we can reach a much higher degree of efficiency; and we should not rest content with having proved ourselves equal to the strongest teams about us. There is no reason why we should not make a creditable showing against any team in the United States, if we care to do so and will make the proper effort. In this connection a word or two of suggestion with reference to the next season will be in place
First our training must be more systematic and severe than it has been. All football candidates should board at one table, and the diet be carefully looked after. Systematic exercise during the summer must be kept up. Every man must adhere to the requirements of training from the moment that the season opens, and as much earlier as possible and steps must be taken to see that this is done. It will not do for any one man to presume on his superior ability, and to assume liberty to keep late hours, to smoke or to neglect any part of his training. Discipline cannot be expected unless all conform to it; and while undue severity in this respect would perhaps have been out of place in the beginning of our work, if we hope to do better than we have done, discipline must be enforced; and the man who fails to conform to requirements must forfeit his place. The loss of such a man may cripple the team temporarily, but will strengthen it in the long run
The season should be shortened; and to this end, the number of games of the state league should be reduced one-half. But three games are called for by the inter-state league, and all can easily be played before Thanksgiving.
Training and practice must begin with the first day of University work in the fall. Provision has already been made for this in the reelection of Captain Kinzie.
Attention to these points, with the same united effort that has marked the work of this season, will enable us to make a record even clearer than the present one. In the matter of courtesy to opposing teams, our record can hardly be improved; but we can live up to it, and continue to merit the respect of all whom we meet. The same disposition has been shown us by all our opponents, and the best thing to be said of the past season is that it has inaugurated an era of good feeling.
A work should be said with reference to the interstate league just formed. The constitution and schedule adopted at Kansas City Dec. 28 will be submitted to the several universities for their approval, and any necessary changes can be made at the next meeting of the executive committee Oct.1. The schedule now stands as follows.
Nov. 5. Kansas vs Iowa, Kansas City; Nebraska vs Missouri, Omaha.
Nov. 14. Kansas vs Nebraska, Lincoln; Missouri vs Iowa, Columbia
Nov. 24 Kansas vs Missouri,
Kansas City; Iowa vs Nebraska, at
Omaha.
In order to pay expenses, it was thought best to play four of the six games in the large cities. The others are to alternate between the home grounds of the universities according to mutual agreement. That is, if we play Nebraska in Lincoln this year, next year that game will be played here; or the order can be reversed by the agreement of the two associations.

The above games, with those of our own local league, will give us plenty of hard work to do. Athletic interest is rapidly growing in the state universities, and in the cities where the games are to be played, and the outlook for next year's work is decidedly hopeful and inspiring,
Our local contest in oratory this year promises to be of unusual interest. Sixteen men have handed in orations to the faculty committee and we ma, be sure that the six lucky orations will be of exceptional merit.
AMUSEMENTS.
GRACIE EMMET.
A full house should greet this clever little lady in her new play the "Pulse of New York" at the opera house on Jan. 13. It is a play of New York life that holds the interest of the audience from start to finish much of its success being due to the excellent stage settings as well as the clever acting.
JOHN DILLON.
Mr. Dillon's appearance at Bowersock opera house Monday, Jan. 11, will be hailed with delight by his old time admirers in this city. He is the veritable embodiment of wit and humor, whose sole mission seems to be to excite the risabilities of his fellow men. The sight of his face seems to drive away dull care as sunshine disperses the fog. Seats on sale Saturday.
There is good skating on the river near the ice houses and the boys about town are taking advantage of it.
Professor Miller's Book.
Prof. Miller's new trigonometry has just been issued by the Boston text book publishing house of Leach, Shewing & Sandhorn. It is intended primarily for the K. S. U. classes, but its merit is such as pronounced by eastern college mathematicians, that it will soon find its way into more general use. A year and a half's work on Porfessor Miller's part has produced results which would most naturally be attributed to a much longer period of labor. In the small portion of this work credited to compilation only the best mathematical thinkers have been consulted. The book also recommends itself by the great length to which it carries out demonstrations, and by the extension of mary of its formule far beyond those of the current text books. Answers to the practical problems are not given, compelling the student to prove his work from other formule found in the book. Moreover the demonstrations in spherical trigonometry are much clearer than those commonly set forth. A chapter on trigonometric tables shows clearly how the natural functions of triangle measurement may be developed from the doctrine of limits, and also how the tables of logarithmic trigonometrical functions are obtained. The usual superfluous chapters on surveying and navigation have been omitted. Professor Miller has the pleasure of seeing his work gotten up in most artistic style by J. S. Cushing & Co., the Boston printers. The price is $1.35.
The Concert.
It is seldom that Lawrence people have been so favored musically as they were Thursday evening by the Musin Concert company at the opera house. To listen to so large a company with every individual an artist of the first rank is a treat sodim enjoyed by a small city and it is simply necessary to state that every number on the program was encored. (Musin being obliged to play twice after his Paganiui one string number), to show how well pleased the audience was.
It is gratifying to know that the concert was a success financially notwithstanding the large guarantee necessary to secure the services of the company. A fine audience was present, including a full dress box party which added greatly to the metropolitan appearance of the house, an event by the way which was appreciated greatly by the artists, and, as they said, "inspired them to do their best."
The feature was of course Musin's splendid violin playing. The variety of effects which he obtained from the instrument and the extreme delicacy of his playing have never been equalled here. Quartettes from "Ringoleotto" and "Martha" were rendered with all the strength of Italian opera surroundings. Mrs. Tanner-Musin's voice is a phenomenal one in its compass and brilliance. Especially fine were the duets with the violin. Miss Parmenter's beautiful voice pleased greatly in her artistic ballad singing. Mr. Scharf was handicapped by a poor piano for concert playing, but he secured wonderful results from it, both in his solos and his accompaniments. Mr. Sanger's great basso and Mr. Dupuy's rich and ringing tenor were thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated.
One of the most enjoyable events in connection with the visit of the company was the recital before the students of the school of music Friday by Mr Scharf, the pianist, and Miss Parmater, the contralto. A program consisting of five Chopin numbers, two by Liszt, others by Raff, Sgambati, Wagner, Thomas and others, was greatly enjoyed by the large audience of students and friends present.
If you hear loud voices in your neighborhood at any time during the night, do not be alarmed, for it is only some of the University orators practicing their orations.
The local oratorical contest at Bakef occurs this evening. A number of the boys from the University will attend.
The appearance of the University campus is being very much improved by trimming the trees upon it.

later he broke through and tackled Hogg,
who had the ball. Time was called for
the first thai with the score a tie.
The teams lined up for the second half at 3:30. K U, had the ball. Then came one of the prettiest plays of the game. The Iowans were not watching for it. The crisscross was worked and in less than two minutes after play was called Kinzze had made a touch down. The ball was snatched back and given to Champilin. He passed it to Kinzzie who went around the left end. Aided by some excellent blocking he got by everybody but *Llarrabee*. Williamson was with him, though, and blocked of Larrabee, giving a clear field. Hogg made a miss in the attempt to kick goal, however, making the score 10 to 6.
The ball was put in play at the 25 yard line. Kansas started with the wedge and made a gain of two yards. Ferren and Dobson come together in the rush and were both pretty badly cut in the face and over the eyes, but blinding up their wounds they went to work again. The wedge was then tried twice more without gains and the ball went to Iowa on the third down.
The Iowaans took the ball and began to make their way down the field with the wedge V shaped, and the wheel. German and Woolston were each tried on around the end plays but were downed without gains. At last German went through an opening between Jewett and Fredericks and made one of the prettiest runs of the game, carrying the ball for forty yards through the center of the field. Aided by Siles and Elliott he got by everybody but Hogg and had almost gotten by him when he stumbled and fell. Stiles picked him up, but before the two could start again they were downed. The ball was now close to the Kansas goal and it looked as if the Iowaans would be sure to get another touchdown, but they lost the ball in the third down without reinforce gain.
Kinzie tried to buck the line, but again Stiles went through the center and downed him. The wedge was then tried without a gain and in the third down Hogg was told to kick. He did it splendidly too. His right foot swung and the ball went far up the field. An Iowa man dropped on it at the center line.
Iowa went to work again with a determination to force the fighting. With the wedge and the roll around the end it gained little by little until German got through a hole in the left end and made a twenty yards run. Coleman tackled him when he was getting dangerously close to a touch down. By a series of terrific rushes the Iowaans carried LARrabiee across and scored their second touch down. LARrabiee kicked goal, making the score 12-10. Ferren was pretty badly hurt in the scrimmage but continued to play.
Stiles and Elliott again got through the center and downed Kinzie and Champlin in succession. They were forcing the ball down the field. Hogg on the third down made a beautiful throw to Kinzie who rushed down the field and would have made a touchdown had he passed Larnabee, but the little half back made one of the best tackles of the game and downed his man. From that on the Kansans started in to push the ball across the line. They tried the V shaped wedge first at one end and then at the other. The prettiest rushes of the game were seen. Champlin's bucking of the line was superb. Every time he went at it he made a gain. It was a great struggle, but the Kansans with teeth tightly clinched sent Kinzie over the line for their third touch down. Again Hogg missed goal.
Right here came the play that Larrabee got the ball and went to the 25-yard line for the kick off. Half back put the ball in play at once and started across the field. He ran almost the entire distance. Finally Fredericks nailed him at the ten yard line. A great row followed. Captain Kinzie claimed that the ball had not been put in play. He was supported by the umpire. Captain claimed that it had been put in play. He was supported by the referee. The refreece's decision went. Play was called
azain, and when Kansas didn't haue up, Badley took the ball and made a touch down. Larrybee kicked goal, making the score 18 to 14 in favor of Iowa university, according to the umpire's decision. The game, however, was forfeited by Kansas when the score was 14 to 12 in its favor.

The Argentine Republic was the subject of a paper before the University Seminary yesterday afternoon by Miss Morrow.
Historical Seminary.
Miss Morrow has been for some years a teacher in one of the Argentine state schools and her talk was based on experience and personal observations.
The people are descendants of the Spanishiards, mixed with the Indian, Italians and other European races, but they retain the Spanish language and customs.
Before the crisis there were very few people there.
They have a state religion which is Catholic. Other religion is tolerated provided those who wish to establish a church get permission from the government.
Education is compulsory between the ages of 6 and 14. The school system was modedleed after that of our country, and many teachers were taken from the United States. There are two universities supported by the national government and each state has a lower form of school which is called the normal college leading up to the University.
Argentine Republic has fourteen states governed much as are our states and united into one federal constitution modeled after the constitution of the United States. Their present form of government was established in 1852, which superceded a dictatorship. The president holds office for six years and cannot succeed himself. Although the government is republican in form yet the restrictions upon the ruling party are nominal only. It is a military government except in name.
That "Rush Trust."
The present financial disaster was brought on by circulating paper money in great quantities. The national treasury was at first full of gold, but this was all drained from the country in foreign trade while the paper remained at home. The state is very rich in resources and it is thought that if some one were found to govern it properly it would soon pay its enormous debt and become wealthy. They think that they are a peculiar people and that all the laws of political economy does not apply to them and they see nothing else to do now but to go on printing paper money.
The crisis almost resulted in a political revolution but the president resigned and saved the overthrow of the government.
Events have justified the common belief. Not since its inception it has been lived up to. Each of the three ladies' fraternities have repeatedly broken its
Rumors have become facts and the ladies' "rush trust," as the agreement among the ladies' fraternities has been called, has passed into ancient history. Hercafter the giddy whirl of the rushing season will be "on" from the day the University opens.
terms and its requirements. Perhaps each have been equally solpable, but that is neither here nor there. During the past rushing season it was demonstrated, if never before, how the agreement served only as a cause of contention and was used as a cloak to mask deception and dishonesty and questionable methods. It was not the fault of the agreement, for the agreement can not but receive the sanction of all. It was the fault of its use and since the ladies could not bring themselves to a closer adherence to its terms and to its requirements it was perhaps best to abolish that which had come to be looked upon in derision by those who have seen its terms so openly and so jeopardy disregarded and violated.
Such an outcome is hardly more than has long been expected by close observers. Even to a casual observer it must have been plainly apparent that the agreement had sadly failed in what was so confidently hoped of it. It was expected that it would do away with the evils of rushing by allowing the new girls time in which, to form a careful and deliberate estimate of the different fraternities before being asked to join any one of them. In this way there would be no need of an excessive display of sud den friendship, or bitterness of rival feeling and of resorting to questionable methods in rushing, since the candidate would be largely left to her judgment and not to her prejudices. It was indeed laudable in the ladies to attempt so noble a purpose. All wished the plan success, although few had faith in it.

'92 had the up-hill side the first half and 93 had the ball. The ball was passed to Reno who made the best run of the game, carrying the ball to '92's 5 yard line before he was downed.
The seniors got the ball in the first scrimmage and then bucked the juniors the whole length of the field and secured a touch down. Brown punted the ball out about a yard from the goal line and the brawny seniors endeavored to push it over again; but the mumble juniors carried it around the end back to the center and it remained in that vicinity the balance of the first half. In the second half '92 started off with a wedge but lost the ball on a pomen. Then '93 by a couple of punts and some good runs carried the ball through the goal posts and scored a touch pown. Riddle did not kick a goal and the ball was brought out to the 25 yard line. It remained in the middle of the field the rest of the 'game and the game closed with the score a tie.
K. U. Defeats B. U, and Wins the Pennant—Rock, Chalk! Jay Hawk ! K. U. !! — Score 8 to 0.
An Exciting and Hard Fought Contest—K. U.'s Crimson Waves on High.
Live ever, die never! Oh, yes, Baker!
Do you hear? It is 8 to 0, and all covered with crimson. We can only touch in high places. Hear our rooster! Well!
well! well!!! The crimson waves victoriously over the yellow. Rock, chalk,
Jay Hawk, K. U.!!
The final game of the Triangular League series was played yesterday between Baker and K. S. U, and resulted in a splendid victory for our boys. It was an exciting and close game but Baker was clearly outplayed at every point. K. U.'s team work was simply superb. All the boys distinguished themselves, but the playing of Sherman and Champlin was especially meritorious. The boys have improved wonderfully in blocking. Their every play was carefully studied and worked out to perfection. K. U. presented her regular team except Williamson who was sick and his place was well filed by Kinzie. The two teams as they lined up were as follows:
SECOND HALF,
K. U, has the ball but must fight towards the north goal which is slightly up hill. They play the rolling wedge with slight gains, but loose the ball on the fourth down. After numerous attempts Baker advances the ball to K. U's, five yard line but looses the ball on a foul

Hogg punts it we'l out in to the field but it is caught by Goodale and carried forward again towards K. U's goal. Again the ball is almost on the goal line but K. U. holds them and gets the ball. After several wedges are tried Hogg with a man clinging [to him again punts and once more is the danger past.
Baker gets the ball back into K. U's,
territory by a series of plays but looses
it on the fourth down. Mendall and
Coleman make good gains, then Sherman
get the pig skin and rushes to the center
of the field but time is called for the
first half. Score 0 to 1.
K. U. Now has the advantage of the down line goal and K. U.'s "enthususers root and root hard." Baker is "saged with doubt and filled with fear." Baker starts the game with a wedge, but after slight gains is held. Here the mass wavers back and forth until Baker began to lose, when Goodale hops. Hogg catches the ball and carries it forward. Champilin and Hogg then buck the center with good gains. Then Sherman runs to the right and puts the sphere twenty yards nearer the goal. A criss cross follows, then a wedge and the ball goes over the goal line. Hogg fails to kick goal. Score 4 to 0 in K. S. U.'s favor.
The bull then remains for some time near the center of the field. A mighty struggle follows with the ball in Baker's territory. Kinzle snatches the ball out of the hands of a Baker man (Baker man sleep) and makes a good gain. Sherman is then enabled by the good blocking of Kinzie and Dobson to gain fifteen yards. Then follow V's and numerous other plays until by a criss-cross by Champlin and Sherman a good gain is made. Baker gets the ball on the
fourth down but after advancing beyond her twenty-five yard, line, loses it. Sherman then makes the play of the day he gets the ball by a criss-cross and runs to the side of the field, darts toward the goal line and passing man after man, he dashes over the line for the second touch down. Hogg falls to kick goal. Score K. U, S. Baker 0. After a few unimportant plays time is called. K. U proceeds to celebrate. Bedlam is fairly turned loose. This gives K. S, U. the pennant. About 2,000 people witnessed the game.
A Proposed Inovation.
The faculty at a late meeting considered a motion that Wednesday afternoon be given to upper class men as a holiday, the regular work of that time to be done Saturday foroonen. The faculty not desiring to come to any hasty conclusion laid the matter on the table until the next meeting.
Chancellor Snow in an interview with a COURIER reporter said that it was hoped by this means to releive in some measure the strain on the students by giving them opportunities twice a week for recreation and exercise instead of only once and at the same time not in any way interfere with the work in the University. Chancellor Snow considered it a good thing and desired to know the opinion of the student body before coming to any definite conclusion.
The COURIER representative interviewed a large number of juniors and seniors on the subject and the general opinion was unfavorable. The change would break in on on work of the week; upper class men did not need the vacation as badly as the lower; it is doubtful whether advantage would be taken of the half holiday even if given. A half holiday was too short. Students sometimes desired to go out of town and could not get back in half a day, were the principal objections offered. The Courier is of the opinion that the change would be beneficial. That it would not break in on other work of the week, but would fill in some measure the wide gap between Friday and Monday. The measure, however, does not go far enough. It should include if possible the lower classes, where the hard grinding work of college is done. Most of the eastern universities have adopted plans similar to this, and we
The "Wheel" Ulegal
Most of the eastern universities have adopted blans similar to this, and we believe it will ultimately be carried into effect here.
Below we publish a letter received from Mr. Coffin, the referee in the Yale-Harvard game. According to Mr. Coffin's ruling the "wheel" or "rolling wedge" as played by the University of Iowa team is illegal. Mr. Coffin is a recognized authority on foot ball. This is another strong argument for our boys.

Mr. R. D. Brown, Lawrence, Kan.
MY DEAR SIR.—Your favor of the 7th inst, is at hand. In reply I would say that it is not allowable for players in a "V" to lock arms, nor is it allowable for them to grasp each others' bodies in the "roiling wedge" and hang on. The reason is that in both of these cases the men interfere with their opponents by use of their arms, which is contrary to rule.
If I do not make it satisfactorily clear,
I shall be happy to hear from you again.
Yours very truly.

We learn from one of the Hartford foot ball players that the whirling wedge is an illegal play. Our team is still the invincible eleven.
HARVARD offers over two hundred courses from which students may select this year.
If you haven't handed in your name for a Christmas Courier, you had better do so at once as they will all be taken soon.
THE Christmas COURIER will be issued Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. All who desire a copy sent them must hand in their names and addresses with 15 cents. The CouriER supplement is a work of art and costs over $150. Over 300 copies are already engaged.
Why not have a little tug of war tourney of our own? A pull between the different class teams would be very interesting.
The support that the University has received from the newspapers throughout the state this year is gratifying. We are depending very largely on the state press for their influence with the next legislature.
We are still waiting for some one to write a suitable song that can be adopted by the University. We already have one of the best yells in the country, now let us turn our attention to the securing of an appropriate song, one that will "take" wherever it is heard
The gift of Mrs. Lucy Stone to the University of twenty-one volumes of the Woman's Journal shows the appreciation of the advanced step taken by the University in the line of the study of woman's relation to humanity. It has always been the pride of the University to give woman a place equal with man and the course afforded on the status of women is only an advance along this line. The course offered has been the subject of much comment all over the United States,
We have won the pennant and won it fairly and honorably. No stigma of dishonor can be attached to any game played by our team. Systematic training and hard work have been the means of bringing the penant to K. S. U. The faculty deserve much praise for the encouragement given to athletics and the boys who have striven so nobly must not be forgotten. Hurrah for the boys of muscle and speed who have thus brought honor to the University.
THERE should not be a cry against foot ball because poor Hall met his death from over exertion in the game. He was a young man of sedentary habits and not being accustomed to playing foot ball, or engaging in any exercise to speak of, he was unable to bear such violent exercise. The fact is brought out all the more forcibly that a person must be in perfect physical condition, which can only be obtained by a thorough course of training, before he enters into any of the different kinds of sport.
The Business College closes a very successful term tomorrow. The winter term will begin Monday, Jan. 4th.
Passed Away Suddenly Saturday Evening.
HARRY HALL DEAD.
Yes, Harry Hall has gone! The pride of the University, the friend of every student the brilliant scholar and noble christian is with us no more. Death has come into our midst and suddenly taken away one of the brightest and most promising young men that ever entered the University. His death, so sudden, when all things seemed so promising, when the goal for which he had striven so long was almost reached, when his strong young manhood was seemingly at its best, makes his death doubly sad.
Saturday morning rejoicing in full consciousness of manly vigor, full of hope and life; Saturday evening the bright lighti of his young life gone out and noble heart forever at rest.
The news of his death was a shock to every student and professor. All loved and respected Harry and all mourn his untimely death. Saturday forenoon he took part in the Senior—Junior foot ball game. He entered heartily into the spirit of the game as he did in everything he attempted. The game was hotly contested at every point but no one was injured and he did not appear to be much fatigued by the unusual exercise. After the game he went down town and spent an hour or so with his friends and then went home. Arriving there he went to his room saying he was tired and would lie down and rest till supper. When a member of the family went to call him at 6 o'clock he lay unconscious on his bed and beyond the aid of the best physicians who were immediately called. With an expression of peace on his face he calmly and peacefully had passed away, his face quiet and composed; to receive the rewards of a pure and virtuous life. Death had come painlessly like a sleep.
The violent exertion of the football game was the probable immediate cause of his death, but there was no doubt other causes. He had been studying very hard and the severe strain may have so weakened his system that the reaction from the overexertion of the foot ball game made the access of constitutional weakness more easy than it would have been.
Harry Beaumont Hall was born in Carroll county, Mo., Oct. 30, 1869. He came to Lawrence, when his father, General Hall, moved to this city, and in the autumn of 1888 he entered the University. From the first he showed his mettle and was always the perfect gentleman and the thorough scholar. Throughout his course he has carried more than the average amount of work yet in none falling below the first rank. He took a hearty interest in all the work of the institution and was a leader in the class organizations and in the Y. M. C.A. and
was at the time of his death associated with members of the faculty in the committee on chapel exercises. His frank ways and independent scholarship made him a favorits with students and instructors alike, while his headstrong confidence in the invincibility of his powers took the breath of remonstrance away and left only admiration.
In church Harry was as earnest and loyal as in his school work. He was active in the Epworth League, and in Sunday School, in which for a time he was a teacher. He had been a member of the Methodist church for several years. The news of his sudden death cast a gloom over not only this church, but many others in which he had friends.
The funeral services were conducted Tuesday at 2 p. m. at the Methodist church. The University in respect to him was closed, and all the faculty and students attended the services. The funeral sermon was preached by Rev. Millur who chose for his text John 13+21.
After the sermon Prof. Templin came forward and with broken voice and trembling lip told something of Harry's true and sterling character of his hopes and fears, his temptations and his doubts.
Nowhere was the sudden death of Harry Hall more keenly felt than at the Uiiversity among his fellow students. The expressions of sorrow and sympathy were heard on every hand and a shadow seemed to rest upon all the different classes.
The services were deeply impressive and sorrow was shown on every countenance. Eight or his immediate University classmates and friends acted as his pallbeares.

The Christmas displays by many of the merchants of the city are the most attractive ever seen here and the children gather around the windows in crowds.
Enthusiasm for the University foot ball team was shown by a large number of merchants today in the decorations in front of their stores.
The following clipping will be of interest to mrny old K.U. students: The Cambridge Art circle had the pleasure of hearing Mrs. Harriet Haskell MacDonard in her interesting lecture on James Russell Lowell, last Tuesday evening, at the residence of Mr. Fred H. Holton, 720 Main street. Mrs. MacDonald began by saying that Mr. Lowell presented strong characteristics of the New England typ, having descended from English ancestors, who early settled in Newbury, Mass.. and that in all Mr. Lowell's studies writings and achievements, even after he had received high honors, not only from our own land, but also from abroad, he never failed to show that he was a true New England man. The essayist spoke of Mr. Lowell while in college, stating that he was more distinguished for the extent and variety of his reading, and for a careful and just criticism of English authors than for strict classical attainments. After the close of the essay, Dr. A.P. Clarke, president of the circle,spoke on some points brought out by the reader, and expressed the great delight the circle had taken in the entertainment of the evening.

One of the most thoroughly enjoyed fraternity parties that has been given was that of Friday evening. The reorganized chapter of Sigma Chi entertained their friends in a very successful manner. Congratulations were numerous from those who were fortunate enough to be present and it was the unanimous opinion that the Sigs were royal entertainers. Fraziers hall was very tastefully decorated with the fraternity colors. An orchestra of twelve pieces furnished the music.
The Sigma Chi Reception
The members of the chapter of Sigma Chi, who were the hosts of the occasion, are Will Hall Riddle, W W Brown, Louis Mayer, Will Pugh, James Harding, Clifton Kroh and E F Havens, with Prof A Mayer in the faculty and Carl Phillips in the city.

"The ball is much like a young lady," quoth he, "the center of attraction ot thousands."
"Yes, quoth he," and, as usual, quite inconsistent. Constantly changing sides.
"Nevertheless often imposed upon and trampled under foot," answered she.
"Much more frequently hugged," suggested he.
"Not of its own accord" blushed she.
"But submitted to without remonstrance," contended he.
"Of graceful form, you must concede," sighed she.
"Although laced together," replied he.
"Constantly sought after," argued she.
"But always played with," retaliated he.
"You mean thing!" concluded she.

Some lamps are TOLERABLY good,
But who wants a "tolerably" good egg? and there is a heap of trouble with a "tolerancy" good lamp. There is one lamp艰 without the tolerable--THE ROCHESTER IMPLE, BEAUTIFUL, Good—those words mean much, but to see them more forcefully, you must touch more forcibly. All metal, tough and seamless, and made in three pieces only, it is ABSOLUTELY SAFE and UNBREAKABLE. Like Aladdin's of old, it is indeed a "wonderful lamp," for its marvelous light is purer and brighter than gas light, softer than electric light and more cheerful than either.

THE FACULTY.
IN our Christmas number there should be something about our Faculty. While we have not the space we would like to give this subject yet we will give a brief mention of the most prominent professors. The Christmas Courier would be incomplete without a mention of our most honored Faculty.
ME.
FRANCIS HUNTINGTON SNOW, our genial Chancellor, whose kindly countenance greets you on this page, came to Kansas in 1866, called here to accept a professor's chair in the then small K. S. U. The chancellor's speciality has been, and still is, the book of nature and few there are who can read more closely the story as told in Entmology, Zoology,
Ornithology, Botany and Meteorology. Since his election to the office of chancellor, he has continued his labors in his chosen field and as a result, the farmer's pest, the chinch bug, has succumbed to the ravages of the parasitical Sporotrichum. Snow Hall is a fitting monument to his worth and integrity of purpose.
Next in the love of students is Prof. Robinson, "the noblest Roman of them all," whose wit, like fine old wine, has a flavor and a spice. His "Reminiscences" in the "History of K. S. U." gives the book a value, far beyond the cost in the eyes of olden students. Never will you meet an old student but he will have a voice of praise for that ardent Nimrod, Prof. Robinson.
which will be issued next month, we are sure will be a model. The renaissance of athletics in the university is due largely to the four professors, Carruth, Canfield, Hopkins and Sterling. The interest they take in athletic pursuits does not abate in the least, the rigor of their class work as many a student can attest. Prof. Hopkins this year took up an untrained eleven, or rather two elevens, and by his persistent efforts, has, through its victories, given the university more good effectual advertising than all the paid for printer's ink.
Prof. Williston, whose accession to the faculty is of but recent date, is holding K. S. U. well to the front by his discoveries in Geology and Paleontology and is a man whom the state may well be proud to have gained. Prof. Williston is an authority on Entomology whose opinion is the ultimatum. With two such indefatigable workers as Professor Williston and Professor Dyche at the head of the museums
Prof. Miller, he of sines and angles, is another who divides the affections of the students. His work on Trigonometry
A. W. H. SMITH
in Snow Hall, there need be no fear that K. S. U. will not get her share of the curios yet to be discovered.
Professor Wileox, the Chesterfield of the faculty, as courteous to the meekest Freshie as to the most dignified Senior, with the assistance of Professor Sterling, maintains a healthy interest in Greek. The art museum under his direction is fast becoming one of the features of the university.
Prof. Dunlap with his constant iteration of "Gentlemen let me impress upon you the need of a good English style," and his copious use of crimson ink, makes many a student think that correct English is not so easily learned after all. Prof. Dunlap has taken quite an active part in University Extension, and those who heard his lectures at Kansas City, speak of them in terms of unalloyed praise.
Of the Music and Art department there will be found a more extended notice on another page. Suffice it to say that this department is keeping pace with the other departments in the University.
We have given a very brief mention of many of our professors and, while we regret that our space would not allow of a more extended notice, especially of some of the younger professors, who by their zeal and love for K. S. U. are doing much to forward the school; yet we believe from the above outline, even though it may be lacking, that an idea may be gained of the numbers of bright intellects that go to make up the constellation of our Kansas State University faculty.
Prof. Sayre, the Dean of the Pharmacy department, and Prof. Bailey, he whose name got away from him when he crossed the Mississippi and with it the fact that he is the best Chemist in the West, together with an efficient corps of assistants, have succeeded in making this department famous throughout the West and South. To be a graduate from the Kansas school of Pharmacy is one of the best recommendations for a position, and as for Chemists, the school is unable to supply the demand. Requests for men come in every day from the mining districts of the western states and from the sugar plantations of the South.
The Law department is under the supervision of Professor James Green as Dean. The Department now has seventy-two students and a great deal of enthusiasm is manifested by them in their work. The school in the wide
spread reputation it enjoys for thoroughness, shows that the confidence of the people of the state in the Kansas Law school is not misplaced.

HISTORY AND SOCIOLOGY.
One of the most prosperous and promising departments of study to be found in the west is that of historical science in our university. The department is well organized; the instruction is ample, thorough and liberal. Its growth has been rapid and the number of students who avail themselves of the advantages offered is constantly increasing. At present twenty-four courses are offered, thus giving the student the privilege of choosing his line of study—a privilege essential to good university work. The courses are, English History, the History of Civilization, Political Economy, French and German History, Historical Method and Criticism, Statistics, Journalism, American History, Local Administration and Law, Public Finance and Banking, English Constitutional History, Renaissance and Reformation, Advanced Political Economy, Institutional History, the Rise of Democracy, Elements of Sociology, Charities and Corrections, Land and Land Tenures, The Political History of Modern Europe, Constitutional Law, International Law and Diplomacy, The Status of Women in the United States, The History and Methods of Legislative Assemblies, Mediaeval History, and to these, several new courses may be added, including graduate courses.
In the investigation of problems of ancient and modern society all authorities are consulted and the aim is to arrive at the truth irrespective of partisan measures or personal prejudice. The desire is to develop independent and mature judgment based on the facts in the case. The library is the great depenence of the students.
A special feature is the seminary where the students of all courses meet once a week to discuss the results of personal investigation and to read papers and listen to those prepared by others. Prominent men of the state have become corresponding members of the seminary. They come before the students with carefully prepared papers on different phases of history and sociology. The personal contact with these men is of great value to the students.
In connection with this department is published "Seminary Notes, a twenty-four page monthly magazine, which is gaining many compliments from educators in the United States.
Of the three instructors in this department, one is a graduate of Johns Hopkins, one of Cornell, and the other of Michigan University. All paid particular attention to these lines of study in their respective universities and hence they have introduced into our department all the advantages of the training enjoyed in the Eastern institutions.
Professor Frank W. Blackmar, who is at the head of this department is a native of Pennsylvania; born in 1854. His collegiate education was received at the University of the Pacific in California and his university training at the Johns Hopkins University in Maryland. From 1881 to 1886, he was professor in the University of the Pacific; 1886-89 a graduate student in the Johns Hopkins University in the department of History, Politics and English; Instructor in History in the same institution in 1887-8; fellow in History
PETER H. LINNERTON
and Politics in 1888-89 and received the Doctor's degree in 1889. Came to Kansas as Professor of History and Sociology in September, 1889. This is his third year in that capacity.
The professor has given numerous publications to the public. They are the results of his studies and investigations and are not written with an aspiration of becoming a popular author, but rather as one method of teaching. His chief work has been in the class room but he does not ignore other methods.
The following are the chief works published :
Federal and State Aid to Higher Education in the United States: Spanish Colonization in the Southwest: The Study of History and Sociology: Spanish Institutions in the Southwest: Essays, Individuality in Politics in Golden, Era: Early German Literature in Golden Era: Longfellow's Michael Angelo in Golden Era: Life of the Early Hebrews in Overland Monthly: Spanish Amesian Words in Modern Language Notes. Among his addresses are, Function of the High School before California State Teachers Association: Political Science in the Public Schools before Kansas State Teachers Association: Free Coinage or the Silver Question at First Western States Commercial Congress.
He has recently been engaged by the Bureau of Education at Washington to write the History of Higher Education in Kansas. Chief attention will be given to the three State Institutions; State University, Agriculture College, State Normal School, and the private or denominational Colleges. But the public common schools and high schools will receive due attention. It will be published in 1892.
The professor is greatly interested in the higher education of the people and as far as time and ability will permit, he is always willing to give addresses to the public. Last year he delivered sixteen lectures besides his regular work. At the beginning of this year he was invited to Kansas City to assist in the organization of a University Extension Society. Subsequently he was asked to deliver the first course of lectures, which is now in progress, the ninth lecture having been delivered. The class numbers over a hundred.

THE BIG MOOSE.
[Name]
The giant moose is probably one of the best productions of the taxidermist's art in America. He stands twelve feet in height to the tips of his horns, and is one of the finest specimens of moose that roam in the woods of North America. He will prove the center of attraction in the Kansas building at the World's fair.
Prof. Lewis Lindsey Dyche, A. M., M. S. was born 1857 in West Virginia. His specialty ever since his connection with the University has been in the department of Natural History. In his class work in the University the professor never got less than a grade one and since then he has devoted no less rigorous study upon his specimens which are mounted with the most painstaking care.
PRCF. DYCHE.
The exhibit from the University has been given one third of the space in the Kansas building. It will consist of groups of moose, elk, buffalo, Rocky mountain goats, Rocky mountain lions, deer, in fact nearly all the larger animals of North America will be in the Kansas exhibit. Commanche, of Custer fame, will also be there.
The third floor in Snow Hall now presents a very busy appearance in consequence of preparations for the exhibit. The Professor has five men, besides himself working on the

different animals. The frame work of about fifty different specimens in various stages of completion greet the eye and give a casual visitor some faint idea of the Professor's labors. The shop itself partakes of the nature of a combined blacksmith's shop, tanner's establishment, artist's studio, drug store, and carpenter shop. The departments of this seeming conglomeration are looked after by Messrs. J. C. Saunders, W. W. Wyland, C. E. Hite, J. Shaffer and W. S. Smith.
The Professor's work may be imagined, when it is remembered that each specimen must be made a study and that not only each muscle, bone and tendon must be known but also its position and tension for the attitude which is to be represented. With fifty specimens in the process of being mounted, it seems wonderful how the professor can retain all the minutiae of the anatomy which is necessary in order that the animal when mounted may appear life-like. The mounting of the skeleton, prior to forming the body, is a work of the greatest care and exactness.
Prof. Dyche since his connection with the University has made fourteen different hunting trips, returning each time with some rare specimens. These fourteen trips altogether make something near a period of five years and in them there was surely many a dangerous adventure and many a narrow escape. The Professor's book, "Camp-fire Stories" will be eagerly read by all who know anything of Prof. Dyche.
PROF. BLAKE.
Prof. Lucien I. Blake was born at Mansfield, a town near Boston, in 1856. Graduated at Amherst in 1877. Went to Germany in 1880 and studied under the famous Helmholtz. Received the degree Ph. D. from University of Berlin in 1883. After returning to America he accepted the chair of Physics and Electrical Engineering at the Rose Polytechnic. Came from that school to K. S. U. in 1888.
The prosperity of the school of Electrical Engineering is due to the impetus which Prof. Blake has given it. He is a firm believer in educating the hand as well as the head. His efforts have been to get the people to recognize the necessity of good mechanical training and awaken an interest in the science of electricity. His efforts in this line are achieving their end and already the school numbers students who are not traveling o'er the well known paths of research but have passed through them and are laboring in the, as yet, not fully explored fields of electricity.
The Professor is very modest about his inventions, but we all have heard of his system of Fog signals by electricity, using the water as a conductor. The Professor carried on his experiments in this line for two years unaided. Then the government kindly placed government vessels at his service and next year he will be allowed to experiment through the systems of light houses on the coast. The receiving apparatus of the Fog signal has been completed and now all that is necessary is a better form of sending apparatus. This the Professor hopes to attain during his next
summer's work. Besides this, the school of Electrical Engineering has made several improvements upon the telephone and has discovered several new facts in electricity.
The rain theory which he advanced he does not claim to be a truth, but merely a theory that is far more plausible than Melbourne's. The theory is: that since hailstones are often found with a granule of leaf or dust particle in the center, that rain or hail is caused oftentimes by the condensation of the moisture in the air around some minute solid body. If dust, smoke, etc., be introduced into an atmosphere saturated with moisture it will cause a precipitation. The experiments in the laboratory have shown that this is true to a certain extent and all that now remains, is to test it, using the heavens above as the object of the experiment.
T. B. WILLIAMS
Topeka is well satisfied with the professor's lectures there under the University Extension Society. He has also received invitations to deliver a course of lectures before the K. C. society and before the Trades Union of Topeka.
The class attending Prof. Blake's University Extension lecture on Electricity and Magnetism in Topeka now numbers about one hundred and fifty. That the course of lectures is complete and is more than a mere outline is apparent from the syllabus of the professor's fifth lecture there. The subject was electro magnetic induction, which was treated under the following topics: Induction current produced by a magnet, Cutting lines of Force, Induction a necessary result of the principle of Conservation of Energy, Induction currents produced by currents, Lenz's Law of Direction, Value of Induced Electro-motive Force, Mutual Induction of two Circuits, Co-efficient of Mutual Induction, the Induction Coil, the Bell Telephone, the Hughes, Edison, Berlin Hummings and Blake transmuters.
The Electrical Engineering department in K. U' owes its magnificent growth from the nebulous system in which it was prior to 1888, to Prof. Blake. Kansas has not lost all her leading educators yet.

A JUNIOR'S LOVE.
A RETRORPECT FROM THE DIARY OF K. S. UPTONSNUFF.
Imagine a dull, gloomy day, a continual drizzling rain, with a cold east wind. On such a day as this my sister and I found ourselves in the little college-town of L.——, in September, 18—. We had come to attend the college, and were comfortably settled that afternoon in one of the many students' boarding-houses.
We had lived, as long as I can remember, with a dear maiden aunt; not with one of those vinegar-faced spinsters who pry into everyones secrets, but a very sweet lady, whom it would delight your heart to see. She had kept us at school near our home, but I had come into disfavor with the faculty there, and although not dismissed, I begged aunt Kester to send me elsewhere. Nothing would suit Helen, my sister, but that she should come with me, so here we were in this poor rain-soaked little town.
Well the next morning after our arrival, we started for the college, which was situated upon a high hill,—so as to place the standard of instruction as high as possible, I suppose. By the following Monday our work was arranged, and we entered the Junior Class. We each had a study in the afternoon, and there was barely time to hurry home at the close of the last hour in the morning, eat our dinner, and return for the afternoon-class.
Helen and I never dissented. She was a great favorite with the girls up on the hill, particularly those interested in the fraternities; and I often teased her about how very loving and sisterly they had grown toward her in that short time. She good-naturedly, replying, that she liked them quite as well as they did her.
About two weeks later, when I entered one of my classrooms, there was restlessness in the very air, so thick you could almost see it. I naturally inquired the cause, and was told that a "quiz" was feared. "And what may a 'quiz' be?" I asked my next neighbor, a girl, who replied in a way characteristic of a girl. "Don't you know what a 'quiz' is?" she asked in astonishment. "Well I'll tell you. A professor, from some reason or other, has the nightmare. In it, his Evil Genius propounds to him certain abstruse and obscure problems or questions, according to his department, to be solved within from one to three days, or even a week. Although pretty sure of having sufficient knowledge for the purpose, he wishes to be certain and the next day, sets these same questions before his classes. In their answers, his memory is refreshed, and he also receives much additional information which he never had had the good fortune to read or hear before."
One day, while in the library, my attention was attracted to a gentleman standing behind the librarian's desk. He was of medium height, carried his head and shoulders well thrown back, had dark gray eyes, and a luxuriant mass of brown hair, which, had it been under the hand of a skillful hair-dresser, would have rivalled the exalted coiffures of the dames of the olden times. Under the existing circumstances
however, he contented himself with brushing it straight back from his forehead, acquiring thereby a very distinguished air. On the face of this pompous individual there was an expression of such exquisite misery that I was appalled, uncertain whether the agony which he seemed to be enduring was mental or physical. He stood there for a few moments, in great distress, evidently debating within himself whether or not it would be wise to leap over the desk and two or three intervening tables, and, confronting his direst enemy, pulverize him on the spot. But discretion seemed to get the better part of valor, and he soothed himself dy running his slender, lily-white fingers through his abundant locks. Then he slowly, proudly descended from his point of vantage, and passed majestically through the room, and the doors soon hid him from my view. I did not have time to inquire his name before he was back, bearing a small book in his hand. After proceeding to the Seniors' portion of the library, and returning empty-handed, he again went out, returned with a larger book, deposited it in his private alcove, and again promenaded 'the reading-room, and finally disappeared for five minutes. During this interval, I found his name to be James Green, the Grand Mogul of the High Steppers' Fraternity. This accounted for his regal bearing, which I soon had an opportunity of observing more closely.
Once, as I was passing through the halls, I heard a sound, an indescribable sound, now near, now far off. What was it? It seemed to linger about a group of girls with whom I was acquainted. I joined them, and while they were laughing at some excruciatingly funny remark of mine, I heard a faint tinkle! tinkle! I asked one of the sweet artless creatures to walk with me, and as we walked and talked, we existed in an atmosphere of sweet sounds. I went home that day, wrapped—nay buried—in thought. The next morning, I went up the hill an hour earlier than usual, and paraded up and down the hall amid the unbounded astonishment of my lady friends, that a gentlemen could, under any circumstances, be musical. Their tongues were not quiet, and I was the attraction of every eye. My vanity was flattered exceedingly, and I felt that though they might be indignant at my usurpation of their rights, yet, at the same time, I had rather advanced in their estimation.
That day just as I was starting for home, I saw, standing with my sister, the sweetest, prettiest girl I ever beheld. I do not know what came over me, but I blushed deeply—those confounded bells—that night I asked Helen about her. Her eyes twinkled merrily as she answered:
"Oh, her name is Mary Deane, a very common-sounding name—" "It's a beautiful name, and just suits her!" I exclaimed. "She said she lived about a hundred miles west of here in a little town called 'The Rapids.'" continued Helen, with a very knowing smile, and the conversation was dropped.
Meanwhile, I had become friends with three or four boys who were very agreeable companions. We had a great many little dinners together, for which they insisted upon paying. I felt that they were very generous, and when they

wished to treat me, I had not the heart to refuse a drink, although it was against my principles. One evening, Jack Reese, a rolllicking fellow, asked me to call with him upon a young lady friend of his. Of course, I was only too glad to oblige him, and what was my joy to behold in his friend, Miss Mary Deane. She had the loveliest blue eyes, the silkiest golden hair, (don't ask me how I know it was silky) and she was not quite up to my shoulder. I fell desperately in love with her, and when, as I was going, she laid her hand caressingly upon my shoulder, looking up sweetly at me with her pretty eyes, I was willing to pledge myself her slave forever, not to speak of granting her wish—that I should be a member of the Jolly Fellows Fraternity.
"Tinkle, tinkle, fairy bells!
Wave around us wizards' spells!
Guide us to some forest glen,
Moonlit lea, or darksome fen,
Oer the land or oer the sea,
Where your owner's heart may be.
"Jingle sweetly, tiny bells!
Vainly weave our magic spirits!
Harmless over me they fall
I am proof against them all;
Try some other mortal fail,
You will then, perchance, not fail."
A day or two later, I received through the mail, the following anonymous verses :
The next afternoon, Miss Deane was returning a call of Helen's, and I had advanced into the hall, when my steps were arrested by the words: "So, he didn't tell you anything about it?" (How girls can titter!) "Well don't tell him I wrote it." The door opened, and I barely escaped unperceived to my room, a sadder if not a wiser man. The mysterious meaning of the verses was now clear to me, but I resolved to do nothing hastily. I wrote a note to Miss Deane requesting her company to a lecture to be given early the next week, and to my surprise and dismay she declined. In my mind's eye, I saw it all—those bells.
"Vainly weave your magic spells!
Harmless over me they fall ...
Try some other mortal frail."
"That I will" was my resolve. That evening I called upon Miss Rose Murray, a girl whose friendship I had hitherto not sought. In a short time, I called again, having been favorably received on my previous visit; and thenceforward, I lost no opportunity of advancing myself in her esteem; for, I thought, could I but make Mary Deane jealous—alas! She had gone over to the detested James Green, the young man with the superabundance of hair.
I now devoted myself entirely to the conquest of the queenly Rose Murray; she is tall and stately, with a very graceful and erect carriage; her large, dark brown eyes show off to perfection a very fair, transparent skin, and red curving lips. I determined to wreak my vengeance upon her but I became enchanted, and soon, Mary Deane was but a memory. One forenoon at the University, after the examinations were over, I heard a great commotion in the hall. I hastened out of the library, and found about half of the students congregated around a man who seemed to have
difficulty in making himself heard amid the talk and laughter. I saw Miss Murray, and got beside her just in time to hear the man offer for sale a kind of condensed magazine: he concluded his remarks thus: "If any of you young ladies and gentlemen are contemplating forming a contract in which a preacher is necessary, and will tell me, I will make a reduction." The students fairly whooped at this. I looked down at Rose; she was smiling just like the others, but I was disappointed; I don't know what I expected, but I was not satisfied at any rate. The Chancellor come up and tapped the book-agent on the shoulder, informing him that he was breaking the laws of the college in canvassing his work there without a special licence. He turned to the crowd, saying: "I see I have been transgressing the rules, for which I now apologize; but, at the same time, if any of you wish to subscribe, I'll—" His voice was drowned in the applause, the college yell:
"Red-hot, spicy!!! We of Y. C."!"
I was contemplating a quiet chat with Rose Murray, when one of the boys took my arm and led me to an excited group of my fraternal associates. I very soon learned that a new boy had come in, who was shown to me, standing by the bulletin board. "Who is he?" I inquired. "He comes from the west, they say," was the reply. "Some half-savage, uncouth sort of fellow, I guess," said another. We decided to wait. Next day we held a caucus in one of the boys' room "Does he dress well?" inquired the dude of the "Frat." "I say, does he play foot-ball, tennis, baseball or anything?" demanded little Tom Brown. "Yes, foot-ball." "We must get him right away then." "No, I tell you we don't want to take up everyone who comes along. Let him go for awhile." Such were a few of their wise remarks. We concluded to let him drift for a week. Meanwhile, we kept an eye on him.
Then came the dreadful news that James Green was taking him under his protecting wing. This was not to be endured; we hovered around the young man like bees around a hive; I was on the "rushing" committee, and saw that he was properly treated to everything imaginable, at all times and places; and we finally compelled him to join, by our sheer, unconquerable nerve.
The year was drawing to a close. Sweet Rose and I were as good friends as innumerable boat-rides, dances of all kinds, parties, etc., could make us. Somehow, I dared not be too attentive to her, for fear of being thought importunate.
Aunt Kester, Helen, and I received a very cordial invitation from Rose's mother, to visit there in June. We gladly accepted, and in the latter part of the month, found ourselves about a mile from the depot of Springfield, at one of the prettiest country residences to be found in Kansas. Time flows on here in a deliciously peaceful manner. While aunt Kester and her friend review past events, and Helen and Herbert, Rose's brother, study astronomy; Rose and I wander dreamily through the lovely grove of pines, with the wind sighing softly through their waving tops, and the sweet-scented needles crackling beneath our feet. All is bright and beautiful and we see no shadows in the future.

They had just seated themselves to a thanksgiving dinner, whose very magnificence would have pleased the most cynical epicure. The jolly little Chancellor, whose name is Snow, had said a remarkably short grace over such a feast, the very perfume from which would have given a street arab the colic a week, it was so rich. All the guests with anticipatory looks toward a turkey, browned to a nicety, and, like a king, surrounded with hosts of red bedecked sir cranberries who seemed only to exist to minister to his Lordship's ease and welfare; kept up a buzz of conversation over the impending foot ball game. Their interest in foot ball was soon overcome by that more absorbing topic, a good dinner, but the Chancellor was as easily seen was quite nervous. He kept looking at his watch and at the turkey which still remained uncarved. At last in desperation he arose and addressed his host: "I am indeed very sorry to leave you; but you see our boys play at 2:30. Why the boys wouldn't allow me to remain at the head of the institution if I didn't go out to see the foot ball game."
In the COURIER Office: A seedy looking student, clothed in raiment that would have shamed a tramp, enters and with a wistful look addresses the editor who is trying to compress ten pages of matter into a four page paper.
"I've something here I'd like to have you run in your paper."
"Spring poetry, eh? There's the door. See? Now you perambulate."
“Its not poetry. Its——”
"Jam full, dont want it."
"Its good."
"Dont want it any how. Frat and barb wailings don't run at less than five cents per line. Close the door—from the outside please."
"Its not that. I have a theory of how we may be able to get our new athletic grounds in shape for use by spring."
The editor shouts out to the foreman, "Hold that last form! knock out report of last foot ball game! Important news! Must go!" Climbs over table and embraces the seedy looking student while large tears of joy run races down the backs of both coats.
The boys had been loafing in his room all evening and had talked of all the college topics. And when talking of home and vacation, there had come a spell of musing upon them. The silence was then broke by C___ who, leaning back in his chair and watching with half closed eyes the smoke from his cigarette curve and weave itself into fantastic forms, said in slow and measured tones: "I died long years ago but still my soul had its affections and its yearnings. It longed for that which was now no more. The memory of the U. still lingered in my shadowy breast. Impelled to visit earlier scenes, I glided on a ray of mellow moonshine to the summit of a hill where mouldering
ruins, decked with moss and purple ivy, betrayed that once there stood a school far famed and well renowned. My shadow walked those cavernous ways, which once were halls. It longed, it hoped, yet almost fear'd to meet, within those harsh and rugged ruins, a friendly face to welcome back a weary soul. My shade starts back afright as from the gloom there stalks a form, a film it almost seemed, but yet it seemed to tower and reach the skies. I knew it, in that on earth I knew it not, it was the spirit of the U. It passed my trembling spirit by. Another form, a smaller one, came close behind. It was an old familiar face and one I longed to greet. With cold and chilling look, a stony stare, it knew me as a stranger and onward passed. It was the spirit of my class and from the ocean of its memory, I, poor drop, had quite evaporated. With heart that slowly beat with numbing pain, I left the hallowed hollow halls and turned my hesitating steps toward a well known haunt. With eager longing, yet half doubting, I peer thro' the deepening darkness, and see a light that comes to meet me. I hesitate no more for there I see a shade that knows me yet as it knew in days of old, and my soul sobs forth a cry of exultation as it nestles close within the bosom of the spirit of my frat." He gave his cigarette a fillip, watched the ashes fall, and probably would have immortalized himself as a poet in prose by continuing, had not F—— the rogue of the crowd said with preternaturals solemn phiz: "Charley I have often warned you that pie is productive of nightmare, please spare us in the future—I'll eat your pie for you."
This glass of fashion, the cynosure of every eye, advanced with the shouting crimson throng into the field. The crowd watched him with eager attention as the foot ball, tossed by sportive "little Willy," come bounding toward him. He, like all great men rose to the occasion, catching the ball he took a dainty little run and prepared to give a drop kick. The ball would have been lost if he had kicked it, but he didn't. He sat down so hard that it caused an earthquake—among the crowd.
He had been promenading up and down the grounds all during the first half. He was glad and happy to be there, glad to see our boys win and happy because he could show to an admiring public, a suit of clothes that was perfect in every detail and which probably had cost him, or more likely his tailor, a sum well up in the hundreds. He was spick and span and from the shining surface of his patent leathers to the top of his glossy silk hat, there beamed a radiant good humour.
He was a frowsy little urchin and his ebony countenance shown with delight as he watched two dogs attempt to throttle each other. A benevolent, Y. M. C. A. looking K. S. U. student who was passing took an interest in the progress of the fight and stopped to inquire. The ebony-hue sent him up the street with "what youse's a doin hyar? You're git a muve on yourse. Drag yourse along off now, you monkey roun hyar I make you lose yourse, boy."

THE GEESE AND THE CRANES.
It is sunrise; in the morn

Pick the fallen, golden grains.
It is noon-time; and the rays

Pick the fallen, golden grains.
It is evening; and the haze
Of the short annual days,
Like a mantle seems to rest
On the dark and leaden west;
Shattered is the field of maize;
Homoward fly the geese; the cranes;
Linger, picking golden grains.
It is midnight; rain and sleet
On the blackened landscape beat
And there nothing now remains
Of that field of standing corn;
But through darkness sleet and rain,
Comes the crying of the cranes,
As they search through fields forlorn
Fighting for the final grains.
Hours the grain and life the field
Where the golden grains are had

But through sheet and midnight rains.

ATHLETICS.
SEASON IN FOOT BALL.
At the end of the season, it is wise to take a glance backward to see what has really been accomplished, and what failures have been made. Many perhaps will be contented to accept the victories of the team as a sufficient return for the time and labor invested; but this should not be done. If the physical benefit of two dozen students out of five or six hundred, and the possible possession of a silk banner, are the only results, the sooner foot ball is replaced by something of wider use, the better.
The point that has been kept chiefly in view during the past season is the advantage to the University itself. This is best secured by the development of a spirit of loyalty that will make its possessors helpful to the institution. In this way we may obtain an athletic field, a gymnasium, in short precisely those things that are necessary to open the way for general athletic training for the whole student body. Victories help toward this end, but are not essential. If the game be well and honorably played, and not too frequently, the highest object is accomplished. The University is thus known; not as a school for prize fighters, but as a place where the physical training is of the best, and is yet made secondary to the moral and intellectual. A team sus-

taints the credit of the university by doing on the field what is right, with a requisite amount of might, but without regard for what others may be doing, or mis-doing; and by thus obtaining the favor and support of the public, its work is of direct benefit to the institution and the students as a whole.
A beginning has been made in this direction during the season just ended; and it is hoped that the way has been prepared for more fraternal relations with some of our sister institutions. Mistakes have been made; but this fact will aid in preventing their recurrence—and in meeting new emergencies. One of these mistakes has been the making of too frequent trips to Kansas City, profitable financially, but not in all other respects. This suggests as a final topic the proposed Inter-State University League.
This League will probably consist of the universities of Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas; and it is proposed that each university play one game with each of the others. The plan if carried out with discretion will help these universities to a better acquaintance with each other. The dangers to be avoided are making the league too large, and encouraging anything like professionalism. It will be a mistake to play more than one game in Kansas City; if all be played there, the interest of the better part of the public will be lost.
BASE BALL.
In Base Ball, the K. S. U. team holds the proud position of champion team of the intercollegiate triangular league. The team last year though starting out with some undeniably poor material, by its steady practice developed some good players and learned that essential of good base ball, team work.
Jus. Bowersock was manager and Archie Hogg was captain of the nine last year. Prof. Sterling, who is a lover of the National game aided the base ball management in keeping up the interest in the practice and we may say that the success of the team last year was due in great part to the work
of Prof. Sterling in spurring the boys on to good hard regular practice. This year, under his management and the abundance of good material for a nine, there is no doubt that K. S. U. will be able to retain the pennant.
The league games last spring resulted as follows:
May 9, at Topeka,... Washburn ... 7, K. S. U. ... 8
May 16, at Baldwin,... Baker ... 13, Washburn ... 11

TENNIS.
The University is the champion on the courts, having made a clean sweep in the singles, winning every game. The tie with Washburn in the doubles does not count for much when we learn that our best players did not wield the racket there.
The following are the scores of the K. S. U. games. K. S. U's. score is given first.
Oct. 12, K. S. U. vs. Baker,
Singles, 6-0, 6-1, 6-0.
Doubles, 6-1, 6-2, 2-6, 8-6
Oct. 17, K. S. U. vs. Washburn,
Singles, 6-1, 6-2, 6-1.
Doubles, 4-6, 6-2, 5-7, 6-1
Oct. 24, K. S. U. vs. Baker,
Singles, 6—2, 6—2, 6—1.
Doubles, 6—0, 6—0, 6—"
Oct. 26, K. S. U. vs. Washburn,
Singles, 6-2, 7-5, 6-1.
Doubles, 6-5, 6-1, 6-0.
Whitman, Alden, Leland, Hallowell and Canfield represented the University in these games.
From the above it can easily be seen that K. S. U. has the best players. Baker was new to tennis and did not win a set, but Washburn has developed some fine players in the last year and gave our younger players quite an even match.
ROWING.
Rowing for the past two years has attracted more or less attention. Assisted but little by the Athletic Association, those interested in boating have forced themselves to be recognized. Even with the poor boats used last year, the races were witnessed by large crowds.
We have a course that Kansas City would consider priceless. We are so situated that races could easily be arranged with K. C., St. Joseph and St. Louis. All we lack is some assistance from the Athletic Association. With two four oared boats, a single shell or two, K. S. U. could make for herself a name on a boating course, equal to her foot ball victories. We have the material. We have the course. Why should there not be more interest taken in rowing.
THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION.
Perhaps at no time since the university ceased to be a high school has there been an entire absence of the Athletic spirit among the students and professors. There have always been men connected with the university who recognized the advantages of a healthy athletic interest, and who knew that a victorious foot-ball team would add to the strength and glory of K. S. U. The work of these few was often disheartening and many of us remember the attempted witticisms leveled at university athletics not longer ago than '88-'89. But in that same year the Courier printed column after column of matter bearing on a gymnasium, and although little of it was read, still like a standing advertisement, it had some effect.
In the spring of that year, base-ball, foot-ball and tennis associations appear in the university directory, and in June
Athletic stock seemed to take a rise in the fall of '89, and in December the present Athletic Association was organized. A mass meeting was called 12:30, Friday Dec. 13, and after choosing M. E. Hickey temporary chairman proceeded to the adoption of a constitution and election of officers under it. Section 2, Art I, of the constitution provides that "the aim of the association shall be the promotion of the Athletic interests of K.S.U." Article II, says: "All students of the University and members of its faculty shall be members of the Association" The first officers elected under the constitution were Prof.W.H.Carruth, Pres.; F.H.Kellogg, Secy.; with a general board of ten members; the boating interests were not represented on the first board.
there was a field-day, in which one man won most of the prizes, but this phenomenal athlete has not been in school since.
With the organization of the association, athletics obtained a definite standing in the university, and by the close of the year '89-'90 a considerable interest had been aroused and several good games of base-ball were played with other college nines.
THE McCOOK GIFT.
The Commencement address of '90 was delivered by Col. Jno. J. McCook, of New York City, and before leaving Lawrence, he presented the Athletic Association with fifteen hundred dollars, to which he subsequently added another thousand. On the receipt of this handsome donation from Col. McCook, the purchasing of suitable grounds for athletic games was immediately agitated. Some fancied the grounds on South Mass. street while others advocated the tract just West of the university campus. The discussion was continued throughout the year, both in the Athletic Board and in the columns of the COURIER. At the beginning of the present year a proposition was received from Gov. Chas. Robinson to donate one-half of a twelve acre tract lying West of the university grounds, provided the Association would buy the other half at the market price, two-hundred dollars per acre. The proposition was accepted and the deed is now in the hands of the University Endowment Association. And arrangements have been made for putting a part of this field in shape for base-ball games in the Spring.
A PROSPEROUS YEAR.
Last year was one of unusual prosperity for University Athletics; Prof. A. G. Canfield was president of the Board, with M. A. Barber, Secretary. Foot-ball games were played with Baker and in the Spring a Triangular League was arranged with Washburn and Baker. "Midsummer Night's Dream" was given at the opera house under the auspices of the Board and netted to the Association, something like eight-hundred dollars. This brings the record down to the present year, which promises to be one of the most successful in the annals of the Association for already the Athletic crimson has wavied over many a hard fought field and our victorious Rock-chalk has sounded far over the plains of Kansas and Missouri.

HOW THE BROWNIES PLAYED FOOT BALL.
The other night the Brownie crew
Played foot ball and I get a view;
The thing is strange, I know—but true.
I came home late across the park;
The moon was full, it was not dark!
And as I passed the fountain, bark!
A sound of scurrying footsteps came,
I thought a shrill voice called my name:
"Please would I referee the game?
Right from my feet it seemed to rise;
I looked around in dared surprise;
I hardly could believe my eyes!
There in the dead grass I could see,
Scarce coming half way to my knee,
A fairy folk, bizarre and wee.
The moon was full; I saw them stand
In groups around on either hand.
THE PEANUTS HAVE FOUGHT A BOSS!
The ball was given to Tweedledee.
And then the others rushed in vain,
And tried the V with night and main,
They could not make a steady gain.
They wedge and point and rush were tried
With little gain to either side;
Fruitlessly every trick was piled.
Fast and more furious waved the fray.
The moon was full; and I saw each play
As well as though it had been day.
Harder each down the throws became;
Ers they were quarter through the game
The Brownies all were going lame.
And higher still their anger rose
Until at last they came to blows;
Each end-rush slugged the other's nose.
Then what each end-rush had just done
Did after each mother's son.
SANDY SPRINGERS
A group of caricatured characters in a playful scene, with one character being punched. A man in a top hat and suit stands nearby. The characters are drawn in a cartoonish style with exaggerated features and expressions.
And knew them for the Brownie band.
A score or more in uniform
Were showing off their foot ball "form.",
Running and kicking to keep warm.
It was the "leven of Tweelledee
Had challenged Tweedleedum, you see,
And songt an outside referee.
We went to Massachusetts street
Where grounds were laid out trim and neat.
In length just twenty-seven feet.
"Twas Tweedleedum first had the ball,
And how they rushed it, one and all,
From center rush to full-back tall;
They bucked the center off and hard;
They broke the line 'twixt tackle and guard,
And sent their half-back through a yard.
Then on four dows successively
They failed to gain their one foot three,
A FIELD OF SNOWMANS.
They slugged each other every one.
Whereout the ampire seized the ball.
And, blowing loud his whistle call,
Promptly disqualified them all.
And thereupon I came away;
For why, I wonder, should I stay
When not a man was left to play?
I slipped away and made no sound,
But at the corner I turned round
And looked back at the foot ball ground:
I saw the Brownies, friends and foes,
Standing in two long, column rows,
Each tying up another's nose.
Then I came home and wrote this out
To prove how it all came about;
If anyone should dare to doubt,
I'll take him to the very spot.
I saw it clearly. Doubt it? What?
The moon was full—but I was not.

The present COURIER management has striven to present a newspaper that is worthy of the institution and though we are not to vainglorious as to lay the flattering unction to our soul that we have attained our aim, yet we fondly believe we have made some progress in the right direction.
The Courier is not a magazine and consequently does not exist to show the literary attainments of the students, but, relegating all long drawn out, slumber producing labored productions to our worthy friend the Review, has for its purpose the college news. As nearly every one has their own opinions upon the various college topics we have endeavored to present facts and have given space to editorials that deal only with topics of general interest.
The work done by the college newspaper man is often undervalued. Of course every body can edit a paper better than the editor, they think so at least. If they were compelled to be on hand early Monday morning with a roll of copy, had to look after the copy handed in and in many cases rewrite, scan the exchanges, read the daily papers with an eye for news suitable for your paper, read proof, watch the printer to see it is corrected, read a second proof, help make up the forms and then see that the press work is good; they would confess that it is not so easy as it looks and would have more charity for some mistake in proof reading or in a minor point in grammar.
To the Local man of the typical college paper is the greater credit due. He has the work and upon him depends whether the paper will be a good one or not.
The present editors have endeavored to run a bright newsy sheet with only enough of that condiment, slang, to give a spicy flavor.
The Kansas State University has become a name that is a source of pride, not only to every alumnus of the university but also to every citizen of the "Sunflower State." This pride in our university seems warranted when, placing aside the momentary enthusiasm created by our victories in athletics, it is remembered that the position accorded to our alma mater by the entire West, is that of leader.
Though the fame of a school does not rest upon the abilities of its students in athletic lines, yet athletics is an
K. S. U., the Harvard of the west, rests her fame far more securely upon her mental strength than in her muscular prowess.
The progress of the university in the past two years, while it has not been phenomenal, has been of that sure and steady type which exists forever and a day. It has made discoveries in the fields of Natural History, Chemistry and Electricity, that have heralded its fame far beyond the borders of the state.

incentive to increased attendance and shows too a progress in the development of the school.
It is a source of congratulation that this our K. S. U. has made such advance. May each successive Christmas and New Year, see as great or greater prosperity for our grand old K. S. U.

PEACE ON EARTH, GOOD WILL TO WOMEN.
"Tis nearly nineteen nunneres years
Since the Judean shepherds heard
Peal from the solenm, starlit sky
The one supreme, long-needed word,
Needed as sady好 then as then;
"Peace and good-will on earth to men."
Alas! they caught no chord that hymn in
Of peace on earth, good will to women.
Down the stern centuries since that night
The angel prophecy has thrilled.
Aye echoing through the upper air,
On earth it still is unfulfilled.
Men hear the song, strife does not cease;
Never will come the age of peace
Until the carol with new vin in
Brings peace on earth, good-will to women.
The potentates of Christendom
Preach peace to-day with Gatling-guns;
Statesmen, to spread good-will on earth,
Make cannon-flood of mothers' sons;
Yet even in the hot battle's breath
The Red Cross soothes the pangs of death.
While eyes the light of life grows down
Pray. "Peace on earth, good-will to women."
To man the race, not men the sex,
The message from on high was sent;
These weary centuries in vain
Men sought, alone, the Christ's intent.
Now, with new dowered inner ear,
In the angelic strain we hear
A swelling theme, the round world's rim in—
"Peace and good-will to men and women!"

THE SCHOOL OF FINE ARTS.—SCHOOL OF MUSIC.
When the present dean of the school of Fine Arts took charge of the school of music last year, the total enrollment for the previous year had been but 59 students. An earnest and well directed effort in reorganization and building up was immediately begun, in the way of new courses of instruction, new apparatus for teaching purposes and new equipment, including a Chickering concert grand piano and a two manual pedal organ. Pianofort and Vocal Recitals and Concerts took place at frequent intervals, the oratorio of the "Holy City" being given the first term, and the opera, "Bohemian Girl," the second. A fund for a University Pipe
Organ to cost five thousand dollars was started. The result of this activity was that the attendance ran up to 122 for the year, notwithstanding the fact that the standard of admission and the requirements for graduation were raised one year, placing them on the same footing as the collegiate musical courses of Michigan University, Vassar College and other institutions. This increase was also due largely to the high standard of instruction given, so fully demonstrated by the students at the several concerts and recitals. The senior class numbers ten young ladies, five of whom graduated in the course for concert pianists, and five in the Normal course.

Students can now find instruction, not only in all branches of pianoforte playing but in violin, stringed and wind instruments, oratorio singing, church singing, opera, including dramatic art and elocution and languages. A feature of next term will be the five graduating recitals by the seniors, the recital by Miss Neally Stevens, and the production of one of the Italian grand operas. Last June the department of Art was likewise placed in the hands of Professor Penny, who was made by the regents, Dean of the School of Fine Arts, comprising the School of Music and School of Painting. The Dean immediately endeavored to make the department of Art a real school of drawing and painting in every sense of the word and was fortunate in securing the services of Prof. Geo H. Hopkins, Principal of the Topeka Art School last year. A four years course was established, thus raising the standard of graduation one year. There will thus be no graduates this year, but there has been a fair attendance during the past term which promises much for the ensuing term thus assuring a successful year. Prof. Hopkins frequently takes his students out sketching the picturesque scenery about town and has a life class drawing from the living model. Drawing from the flat has been wholly abolished and all the methods are thoroughly educational and progressive. The school will give an exhibition of the years work in June.
MUSIC SCHOOL CONCERT.
Last Thursday evening, December 16, Prof. Penny gave one of the best concerts that the Music School has ever presented to a Lawrence audience. The concert was marked by an improvement in style, finish in execution, and expression, above all previous concerts. Each and every one of the eight hundred people who climbed the hill expressed their pleasure and surprise at the progress of K. S. U. School of Music.
A part of the concert was in original composition by the seniors.
The program opened with a brilliant set of variations by Mendelssohn and Moscheles, played upon two pianofortes by Miss Louisa Smith and Professor Penny. Miss Smith executed the difficulties of the work with facility and made a favorable impression.
Miss Taggert gave her friends a surprise in the song by Dudley Buck. Her fullness of tone and finished phrasing (as the musicians call it) were excellent. Mrs. Bell's playing is well known, but never has she done such brilliant work as she did in Mendelssohn's Rondo Capriccioso. It was genuine fairy music. Mr. Louis Buch was at his best, playing a fantasia upon the well known Austrian national hymn with a fine execution, especially in double stop work. In this as much as in anything else, Professor Penny showed his ability as an accompanist. The piano and violin seemed controlled by one head. A rousing encore was responded to. The pleasing appearance of Miss Titsworth won the audience before she sang a note of the song "When the heart is young" but her singing completely captured the audience who encored her. She has a strong sympathetic voice of great promise. In many respects, the most effectively played of the piano pieces was Raff's "Polka de la Reine" by Miss Lichtenwalter. Another new singer was introduced, Miss Edith E. Hayes, who sang the "Jewel Song" in Faust. Then came some original composition by students in the senior class. Miss Hindman's composition showed decided talent. Miss Hindman had just finished her composition that morning and it is no wonder that she forgot a part of it.
The concert closed with a highly creditable composition by Miss Lichtenwalter a trio for ladies' voices, "Good Night," which was beautifully sung by the ladies' chorus.

TRAUMEREI.
You will feel lots better the day before Christmas than you will the day after; as a rule a man eats too much. He takes some of the "white meat please;" corrals a hunk of oyster pie with "raw juice," gathers in a sheaf of celery; piles up mashed potatoes to the size of a muskrat house and then sours the whole thing with cranberry sauce. We don't know why people will eat cranberry sauce when they can get green persimmons or prickly ash berries that will do the job much better. For a man to eat as much as he can hold and then apply an astringent to his stomach in the shape of cranberry sauce is highly barbarous. If you cannot get the persimmons, a little quinine in cold coffee will not be as bitter as cranberries but do not be too particular.
There is one drawback to the quinine however; there are no berries to mash in your mouth and squirt red ink all over the shirt front of the man sitting opposite. After eating all the white meat and picking the bones, one feels rather warm and downs a freezer of ice cream, his stomach feels rather frost bitten and he would like to wash it in alum water as a preventative for chilblains. He now eats a piece of brandy-soaked mince pie to thaw the ice cream and his breath smells like the spirit lamp under the coffee urn. This was our fix on Thanksgiving and when we went to bed we felt as if the Highland meteor had buried itself in our stomach.
We went to sleep, and in our noctural dreams felt as if all the scientific men in Kansas were on top of us trying to dig that meteor out; at last they got to quarreling as to who would have it and we forgot them. We dreamed that the meteor wanted to continue its heavenly course, started on its journey and took us with it. Likely the alcohol of that mince pie had effected the meteor, for we soon found ourselves on the banks of of the Styx. We looked around and saw Charon trying to catch little dragons with red flannel. We thought we could give him some pointers on fishing and so hailed him; "Hello! Cherry, old boy, how's
bizz?" He looked up; pulled in his red-under-shirt bait, and pushed his mud scow to shore. "Hop on" he said, "I ain't got time to monkey with you students." I said something about our having the best foot ball team on earth and he wanted to know where in Hell there was room to play foot-ball, and I shut up. There were lots of names cut on the sides and seats of the boat. I saw where some one had carved "Cleopatra and Caesar." Antony came along soon after and saw the carving and it made him hot. He scratched Caesar's name out and put his there. I saw the name "Helen" and then right under it was written "Troy." I thought she had forgotten to put the Kansas after it, so I supplied it, and put my name under hers. Charon said something about "Menelaus will get you," but I did not understand and not wanting to appear ignorant, kept silent. Pretty soon the air began to smell like a stove was smoking or some one was fumigating the room to kill small pox. I leaned over the edge of the boat to get a drink when Charon said "set up there; how do you reckon I can row when you don't balance?" He hurt my feelings but I said nothing. We soon reached the shore; when I stepped out Charon said: "Say, when you go up yonder tell the old man that I must have a raise, I have worked for him for three eternities now and haven't got a cent." I sauntered on, having in my hand a piece of bologna to give Cerberus. I arrived at the imperial gate and was met by an old student. His neck was stretched pretty badly. Horse-thieves' necks generally are. "Hello Jack, glad to see you," he said. I didn't return the compliment, if I had had a Greek horse I would have ridden out of there, but I left it in the bureau. I asked the fellow that was taking tickets where Plutos' three headed dog was. He said it was dog days and they had to keep him on ice but would turn him loose as soon as Pasteur came.
I sat down on a piece of brimstone and commenced to blow smoke rings around the knob on the gate. "How do you like your job?" I asked the old student, "well," he said, expectorating about a pint of liquid sulphur, "it is not

as bad as the disciplinary committee." I looked down the road and saw a Phi Delt coming along. His clothes were wet and the curl was all out of his hair. He said something about a pool table to Charon. Charon yelled "corner pocket" and dumped him out. He wrote his name in a steel book with nitric acid and moved on, muttering something about Harrison being a Phi Delt. I felt sorry for him for you used to see him in room 11, every Friday night.
Soon a Phi Psi sauntered along the Hadelien road. He was not sea sick, as he used to boat ride a good deal at school. He brushed the yellow sulphur off his patent leathers and took the brimstone out of his mouth with some forty-rod which he had brought with him. The gate keeper drank with him, and they seemed to be real good friends. He asked which way to the chapter house, and being told moved on. He said something about wanting to give Judas the grip and see if he could not get Ariadne to wear his pin, and thereby get a pull on Bacchus. He had just left us when there was a big cloud of sulphur raised down the road and we saw a Beta having a dog fight. The Beta came out ahead and dragged the dog “Wooglin” along with him. He picked his clothes out of the dogs teeth and put them on. He looked like he had gone through a paper mill, but then dissension is an element of progress, you know. He did not seem at ease, he looked as if he was waiting to rise and be dismissed. When told “No dogs allowed” he said “Oh! Pshaw!” and added something about the finest hall in town, or something to that effect. A fraternity girl came along about this time and wanted to know if she was in time for the fireworks. Pretty soon I heard a Phi Gam down the road. He was trying to do Charon out of the toll. He told Charon to charge it and started up the road. “Line her out” he yelled. The gate keeper's face lighted up, as if he
had been expecting him. They chatted awhile, I could only catch snatches of what they were saying. "I have a pass key ___. Go you ten better. ___ Donnelly's best. ___ Jezebel, old girl, ___ Haven't got my pumps. ___ I see, I see. Will celluloid chips melt here? Have you seen Budd Weiser?" Some sulphur smoke got in my eyes then. When I cleared them he had gone to hold an inquest, I expect.
I heard a cry and looking around, saw a Sigma Chi toddling along the Sheolian road. He looked as if he was called and couldn't come. I wanted to tell him not to get lonely inside, as I knew some of the boys would be along pretty soon, but he had passed on muttering something about, "New chapter—make a name—Big Party—Where's Billy?" I turned and looked down to the river bank where a Sigma Nu had just landed. He gave Charon a mortgage on his hogs for toll and ploughed up the road. His soul was harrowed but he had a cultivated expression on his face. It was planted to plow both ways. He was eating some of his wild oats. He gave the gate keeper the Alliance grip and talked of fall wheat. His conversation was fragmentary; "Biggest chapter in school—Hard students—Principally in the South—Editor Courier—Review shares." I looked around to try and find some barbs, but they were out of sight. The vast majority of them are beating cymbals in the heavenly band. What few were there had soft snaps up in the cool. I stepped inside to see how the boys were getting along and tell the old man that Charon wanted a raise. I had progressed as far as the lake and threw Tantalus the sausage I still retained. The boss of the iron-works saw the action and poured some melted iron on me, which I found to be my room-mate's cold feet in the small of my back.

THE SPOONER LEGACY. THE LARGEST BEQUEST EVER MADE TO A STATE INSTITUTION.
A. N. Walters to James W. Mc.
Seldom is money left to an institution through private gift. Some three weeks ago the COURIER chronicled a notable exception to this rule, which added to the endowment of Kansas University the generous sum of ninety-one thousand, six hundred and eighteen dollars and three cents, the gift of the late Wm. B. Spooner of Boston, Massachusetts. This is said to be the largest sum ever given to a state institution. It was not a feeling of interest in the state, nor yet in her university that prompted the bestowal of this money but rather affection and esteem for a favorite nephew.
In the will drawn up by Mr. Spooner a short time before his death, is the following sentence: "I direct the Trustees to transfer the residue of my estate, in equal portions, to the Lawrence Seminary in Lawrence, in the state of Kansas, meaning the institution with which my friend, Francis H. Snow is now connected, and to Oberlin College in the state of Ohio."
Mr. Spooner died October 28, 1880, at the age of seventy-four. The estate he left amounted to three-hundred and eighty-three thousand dollars, and besides ample provision for his immediate family, a large sum was to be divided among various churches and charitable organizations. Some of the money thus left was merely the interest off certain sums to be set apart for a stated time. This entailed a delay of a number of years before the estate could be settled. According to the provisions of the will itself, final distribution could not be effected for ten years after Mr. Spooner's death and the settlement could be still farther postponed at the pleasure of the trustees. Only one year more than the minimum period was allowed to elapse and last month the partition of the estate was made, and after all bequests had been made, the residuary legatees, Oberlin College and
Kansas University, received the remainder. Chancellor Snow was called to Boston in November to meet the representatives of Oberlin and the Trustees of the estate. Chancellor Snow speaks very highly of the integrity of Mr. Chas. F. Coffin of Lynn, Massachusetts, the surviving trustee, and of his interest in the University, inasmuch as his best endeavors were directed toward a settlement whereby the University would be benefited in the greatest degree. Mr. Coffin was an intimate friend of Mr. Spooner and only accepted the enormous responsibility brought upon him in this matter through his friendship for Mr. Spooner.
Mr. Spooner was loved and admired by all his business associates for a combination of virtues and good qualities that is seldom found. He had a stainless reputation. His charities to the poor were numerous. He was not sectarian and his contributions were free and generous to all good causes. One of his partners in business stated at a meeting of the New England Shoe and Leather Association held to commemorate his life, that his gifts during life were over thirty-thousand dollars.
Wm. B. Spooner was one of the substantial business men of Boston. He was a pioneer in the leather trade in which he made his large fortune. He was born in the town of Petersham, Massachusetts, in the year 1806. He was a poor boy and at the age of seven young Spooner left his father's home to live with his uncle, a tanner. He went to school for three years and was an earnest student. At the age of ten he began to work in the tannery and continued in this work until seventeen. He spent much of his time in reading such books as he could command. He was anxious to enter college but was compelled to abandon his plan from lack of means. He had taught school for six months and was now about twenty-two years old, when a gentlemen prominent in the leather trade, who happened to be visiting the town and was in want of a young man for his store, engaged Wm. Spooner who was recommended to him as possessing the necessary qualifications. He remained with his employer five years when he was enabled to start in the business for himself. Mr. Spooner changed his business relations several times, forming more and more important business connections until the year 1873, when, having obtained a competence and desiring a more quiet life, he retired from business.
Chas. Sumner H. Wilson and many of the great men of Massachusetts were Mr. Spooner's friends and associates. He was known as a public speaker and a writer of no mean pretensions. He belonged to the Free Soil party from its inception and engaged in the early political movements which resulted in the Republican party.
In the political field Mr. Spooner never sought reward, and with the exception of two terms in the state legislature, held no political office. He was U. S. Commissioner for Massachusetts to the Centenial Exhibition.
The University of Kansas comes into possession of a sum of money which was accumulated by a noble christian; not for selfishness but that he might do good. The University should see to it that the hopes of the donor are realized and the greatest possible good accomplished.

UNPRECEDENTED ENROLLMENT.
THE CATALOGUE WILL SHOW OVER 500 NAMES.
The attendance for the present academic year has surpassed the most sanguine anticipations. At this time last year the enrollment was 474. This year the attendance footings for the different schools and departments aggregates a grand total of 815, an increase of 65 per cent. It is perfectly safe to say that in two more years the names of those privileged to attend the University of Kansas will number over 1,000.
A new department in the University claims about 200 of the students. Though organized but this year it has developed rapidly and has enrolled the very best quality of students. Most of them are old students in other colleges who were obliged to leave school and are now possessing themselves of the advantages offered by the University Extension courses of the Kansas University. In these classes conducted in Kansas City, Topeka and Olathe there are over 200 applicants for credits, while as many as 150 more are pursuing the courses without any reference to credits and degrees. Five hundred and ninety then represents the number of students on the ground during the year 1891-92 up to December 17th. An analysis of this number will reveal many interesting facts.
The collegiate classes are made up as follows: Seniors 21, Juniors 42, Sophomores 52, Freshman 99 and 50 Specials.
23. Juniors 42, Sophomores 52, Freshman 99 and 50 Specials.
In the school of Engineering there are 4 Seniors, 10 Juniors, 17 Sophomores, 43 Freshman and 11 Specials.

Ot resident post graduates there are 8, non-resident 10.
Resident post graduates there are 8, non-resident 10. The enrollment at the Law School exceeds that of any previous year, there being a total of 76, as opposed to 45 last year. In the two classes, Seniors 42 and Juniors 34.
Thirty-seven young men and women attend the School of Pharmacy. 12 of this number will graduate next June and 25 the June thereafter. Preparatory medicals number 3.
Last year there was a total of 63 in the Music department. This year the number is 114, almost double the former. In Art there are 15.

This little bit of pleasantry which we had published in a post-office guide—was not looked upon with favor by Wannamaker—but he could not exclude it from the mails much as he wanted to.
The above list shows very forcibly that the University is not an institution for a certain class. It is distinctively for the people. The large per cent of self-supporting students in the University also gives support to this statement. Information on this point has been ascertained for 471 students. Of this number 130 are entirely self-supporting and 54 partially so.

The following things ought not to go through the males: Bullets, knives, rays,

The superior address of the Browning, King & Co. clothing is so plainly observable there is never any mistake made in the males that carry it. It can be told at sight.
Males are sometimes injured by being "sucked" carelessly. This occurs oftentimes to the "fast" males. They are most frequently mashed.
If there were no mails, what a newsless world this would be.
If there were no mails, what a newsless world this would be.
Mails are carried by men, horses, wagons, cars and steamer. Some males are carried by bankers. Some by merchants, and some by their wives—when they are milliners.
if there were no males, what a nooseless world this would be.
After all said, this fact is paramount: There is more satisfaction among ALL MALES, big and little, old and young, with the Browning, King & Co, clothing than any clothing sold—tailor-made not excepted—it just fills the bill in every way and that's why people are satisfied with it.

Book News, "Dr. Blackmar's work will be indispensable to students in the Southwest. Very few recent books on American institutions have more that is fresh."
The San Francisco Chronicle : " The book is set apart from most histories of the period by its philosophical character and for this reason it is of far more value than a mere recital of facts."
Chicago Inter Ocean: "The book is scholarly, elegant in the concise, clear sentences, and valuable at all times for its authentic facts."
SPANISH INSTITUTIONS.
Topeka Daily Capital: "This is a book that at least every western man should read. * * * * The general divisions are thoroughly marked out, and the whole forms, with profuse illustrations, a rare treat to the student of western history."
Prof. Blackmar's new book, "Spanish Institutions in the Southwest," recently published in the John Hopkins series of Historical Studies, is receiving considerable attention at the hands of the Book reviewers. The comments upon the work are all favorable, and frequently an extended notice is made of it. That the New York Sun devoted over three columns to a review of Prof. Blackmar's book, is interesting to note, and also in estimating the value set upon this work as a contribution to historical literature, that exactly the same space in the same issue was given by the Sun to Justin Winsor's recently published "Life of Columbus."
It is of course, impossible to give in the COURIER anything like an outline of these reviews of "Spanish Instructions in the Southwest," but a few clippings are quoted as examples of the spirit with which the book has been received.
ThePhilidelphia Ledger,calls it an "admirable narrative of an essential part of a national history."
New Orleans *Picayune*: "It is worth the reading of all scholars of whatever science. * * * * * The author has a clear, plain and direct style that is very easy to read, and has evidently made himself master of his subject with which he displays entire acquaintance."
The Minneapolis Tribune call it "A fitting product of the careful research

and gifted mind of an American author ; upon a subject heretofore overlooked in the embodiment of American history."
New York Tribune: "The general reader who mastered these pages might fairly consider himself well informed on the history of the Spanish Conquest."
The New York Times: "The ground covered is a wide one but the entire subject has been carefully and judicially examined and the volume is a useful addition to the historical and political studies of our country."
studies of the subject. Such criticisms as these, from papers of national reputation, must of course win notice for Prof. Blackmar, but it is pleasant to find also, that, at the same time, credit and attention is being given to K. S. U. by every one who reads either the reviews or the book itself.
PROF. HODDER.
Prof. Frank Heywood Hodder, A. M., was born in Aurora, Ill., in 1860, graduated from University of Michigan 1883. Studied History and Political Economy under the instruction of Professors C. K. and H. C. Adams. Was Instructor in Cornell in 1885 and later, Assistant Professor in History and Political Economy. Last year he studied in Europe. His work in K. S. U. shows a fine mind and careful study.
PROF. ADAMS.
Dr. E. D. Adams, Ph. D., was born 1865 at Decorah, Iowa, took his degrees from the University of Michigan. He is the author of the thesis "The History of the Budget in the United States." Since 1890 he was special agent in charge of street railway statistics in the census department. "Doc" Adams, as he is called by the boys, holds the position of Assistant Professor in History and Sociology in K. S. U. and all students who are in his classes speak well of the young professor.
THE MESSIAH.
Last Thursday evening the school of music presented the "Messiah" at the Congregational church with pipe organ accompaniment, the chorus numbering 70 voices. It was a splendid rendition of Handel's great oratorio and the large audience present thoroughly enjoyed the fine choruses and solos. Prof. Penny had secured Mr. Frank P. Fisk of Kansas City for the organ accompaniment and Mr. O. C. Hutchinson for the bass solo. The other solos were rendered by Miss Georgia Brown and students of the school, Miss Hayes and Miss Titsworth. That the rendition of this large oratorio was even more successful than the excellent rendering of the "Holy City" last year, is greatly to the credit of Professor Penny and his University chorus.

and gutted mind of an American author, upon a subject herefore overlooked in the embellishment of American history.
New York Tribune: "The general reader who mastered these pages might fairly consider himself well informed on the history of the Spanish Compass."
The New York Times: "The ground covered is a wide one but the entire subject has been carefully and judiciously examined and the volume is a useful addition to the historical and political studies of our country."
Such criticisms are these from papers of national reputation, most of course winnote to Prof Blackman, but it is pleasant to find also, that, at the same time, erudit and attention is being given to K. S. U., by every one who reads either the reviews or the book itself.
PROF. HODDER
Prot. Frank Heywood Holder, A.M.
was born in Anchorage, Ill. in 1865, graduated
from University of Michigan in 1883,
studied History and Political Economy
under the instruction of Professors C.
K. and H.C. Atkins. Was Instructor in
Cornell in 1885 and later, Assistant
Professor in History and Political
Economy. Last year he studied in
Europe. His work in K.S. shows a fine
intellectual and careful study.
PROF. ADAMS.
DF E. D. Adams, Ph.D., was born 1859 at Durham, Town, took his degrees from the University of Michigan. He is the author of the classes "The History in the Dugout in the United States." Since 1892 he was special agent in charge of street railway statistics in the entire department. "Doe" Adams, as he is called by the boys, holds the position of Assistant Professor in History and Sociology in K. S. C. and all students who are in his classes speak well of his young professor.
Last Thursday evening the school of music presented the "Messiah" at the Congregational church with pipe organ accompaniment, the obsolete numbering 72 voices. It was a spareded coalition of Haulet's great oratorio and the large audience present thoroughly enjoyed the fine chants and solos. Pete Penny lectured Mr. Frank P. Fisk of Karelia City for the organ an instrument and Mr. O.C. Harrellson for the bass solo. The other sons were removed by Miss Georgia Brown and students of the school, Mrs. Hayes and Mrs. Tiswarkhi. That the condition of this large oratorio was even more successful than the excellent rendering of the "Holy City" last year is greatly to the credit of Penny and his University chorus.
