AUDITING BUNCAU. PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY MORNING. UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS. VOL. X. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MARCH 4, 1892 SNAP SHOTS. The Local Happenings of the Week in Brief Form. The freshman Chemistry class had a quiz Wednesday. The seniors held a meeting Tues day at the end of the 4th hour. Provision was made for a press representative at the senate meeting. The Sigma Nus had a group picture taken at Willis' Wednesday. The 10 o'clock division of Freshman German recited at 1 o'clock Wednesday. The library of the late Senator Plumb has been donated to the State Normal. The University was closed Wednesday afternoon on account of the minister of Mrs. F. W. Blackmar. From the looks of things now it seems as though Missouri is doomed to do without a university building for some time yet. Doctor Bunn delivered a lecture before the Pharmacy students Wednesday. The lecture was instructive and interesting. A meeting was held Tuesday for the purpose of forming a chess club, Reno, Riggs, and Graves were the committee chosen to report at the next meeting. Quite a number of University students will take part in the play "She Stoops to Conquer," which will be presented in about a month by the Unity Club. Hereafter, the German club will meet every week. Its meetings are held in Orphilian Hall every Friday afternoon at 5 o'clock. An entertaining program has been prepared for this week. Now that the senate has started out so successfully it would be in order for the freshman and sophomores to organize a house of representatives and then for the student body to elect a president. At the first meeting of the Senate held last Tuesday evening, much enthusiasm was shown. The republicans had a slight majority which will probably develop as new members are admitted. The alliance senators are "few and far between." A report of the meeting will be found in another column. The executive board of the Triangular League will meet here Monday for the purpose of arranging a schedule for the base ball games to be played this spring. The board will also award the pennants in foot ball and tennis to the winner, K. U., and will probably arrange for intercollegiate field-day exercises. The athletic board met Monday afternoon. Prof. Templin gave the logic class a quiz yesterday. Jane Whitecomb Riley tonight. The Ariel Quartette was well attended. The juniors have commenced the study of Domestic Relations. A large audience will greet the famous Hoosier poet tonight. The senior Pharmacy class is be ing quizzed every day this week. Over fifty men have been chosen from which to select the base ball team. The Phi Psis will give a box party tonight in honor of Riley who s.a Phi Psi. Misses Geiger and Walters of Holton, Kansas,were visiting the U. the first of the week. James Whitcomb Riley ranks with Sol Smith Russell as an entertainer. Hear him tonight. The Uiiversity Mandolin club meets for practice every Thursday afternoon at North College. Wit, humor and pathos tonight at the opera house by the famous poet, James Whitcomb Riley. Prof. Templin will deliver a lecture before the Phycological Club of Kansas City, Kansas, tonight. Quite a number of University students attended the Beaux Esprits party given last Friday evening. A base ball cage has been put up on a vacant lot opposite the Catholic church on Kentucky street. Harry Bowman, a student from the State Normal at Emporia, was visiting his sister, Miss Nina, last Saturday. J. H. Lott who has recently been appointed to West Point from the fifth district was visiting friends on the hill Monday. H. M. Butler and W. F. Shenk, of Yates Center, were visiting on the hill Monday. Mr. Butler is an old K. U. student from the Civil Engineering department. A notice was posted Wednesday stating that admission to the gymnasium for the remainder of the term could be had for fifty cents. The Review came out Wednesday. It contains the orations delivered by Posten and Challis which won first and second place at the State Oratorical Contest. Samuel Seaton of Olathe was vis iting the U. the first of the week. Mr.Seaton is an old K.U. student and was one of the charter members of the Phi Gam fraternity. Prof. Bailey will lecture at Be-loit this evening. His subject is "Cleaning, Bleaching and Dyeing" He will lecture at Scottville tomor row night on the same subject. Kent club did not meet Friday on account of Judge McCure's lecture.

Send in your order by telephone and Jones he pays the freight on the goods. A reception for the senior Pharmacy students was held at the residence of Prof. Sayer last Tuesday evening. The reception was in honor of H. J. Rankin who will leave school soon. At Ann Arbor and at Cornell, after the Remenyi concert, the students were simply wild in their enthusiasm over the magnificent playing of the great Renenyi and taking the horses from his carriage, drew it to the hotel amid great cheering. The University Senate. The senate held its first meeting last Tuesday evening at the University in Prof. Blackmar's room.

Published every Friday morning by The Courier Company. THE course on the Status of Women has proved a success. Now a course on Hypnotism should be added. The two would work together very nicely and would counteract the influence of each other. DIED. Mrs. F. W. Blackmar died last Tuesday morning after a lingering illness. The funeral occurred on Wednesday afternoon at the M. E. church. Mary Bowman Blackmar was especially noticeable for her Christ like life. She was a plain, unassuming and devoted woman and made friends with all whom she came in contact. She was faithful in everything and had a character that was sweet and pure. Professor Blackmar has the heartfelt sympathy of all the students in the University in his great misfortune. An early field day is being discussed. There is no reason why it should be held any later than the first week in May. The Courier favors an early field day. The recent gift of one million dollars to the University of Chicago by John D. Rockafeller was very unique. It was a thanksgiving offering for returning good health. SEVERAL of the state college papers seem to delight in personal abuse of the successful orators in the late contest. Perhaps they will become reconciled to their fate by the time the roses come again. THE COURIER will get out a special daily edition during commencement week, in addition to the big commencement number. The daily will be sent free to all paid up subscribers. Now is the time to subscribe. PROFESSOR R. T. Ely, of Johns Hopkins University, author of The Labor Movement in America and many other works on political science, has accepted a position in the University of Wisconsin where he will head the new department of Historical and Political Science which was recently created. In the Courier's editorial, "Another Good Friend," a name was omitted which should have been placed in the list with Messrs. Edwords, Prentis, Graham, and Butts. We refer to John Sullivan. Pushing, energetic, and agressive, his eye is ever on the University, and as a member of the Kansas City Press club he loses no opportunity to give our institution wide newspaper notoriety. It is to be hoped that the good sense of the faculty will prevail and that the proposed rule prohibiting the fraternities from taking in freshmen will not be adopted. Such a rule partakes too much of kindergarten methods to be in vogue in K. S. U., and if it were to be adopted it would simply result in sub rosa fraternity members during the freshman year, something that should be avoided, if possible. Should the rule be strictly obeyed, however, the experience of the ladies rush trust has shown that an extended rushing season, even of only three months is highly detrimental, and if this time be prolonged to a year it would be something frightful. Judging from the following communication it would seem that the object of our "warning" in last weeks Courier had been accomplished. We cheerfully publish the reply of the base bull management, being desirous of placing the two articles before the students, in order that they may draw their own "inferences." SCORE A HIT. To the Editor of the Courier; "Those at the helm" of the base ball craft (the management is not responsible for this figure) are much pleased by the interest the Courier takes in in the subject of base ball. Your "warning" of last week is timely, and pointed. Its inferences however are, perhaps, somewhat misleading, and the management desires to make a brief statement as a correction. The management has been thinking of base ball for some time. Arrangements have been made for more efficient practice this year than ever before. Most of the good base ball players in the University have been discovered. Some of the more enthusiastic men have been practicing every day that was suitable. The weather has not been favorable for team practice, and the manager has had too much experience to attempt to increase and foster the interest of his men by forcing them out in unfavorable weather. A cold and dripping sky or a keen air, on a muddy field, makes a condition in which base ball zeal will not flourish, and the slight increase in skill will not compensate for the cost. As for the report that our rivals are practicing daily, let us not be alarmed; it's empty wind. As soon as favorable weather comes there will be such a manifestation of interest as will satisfy everybody, it is hoped. Until that time let us keep up our spirits, dear Courier, as you have set the example, by talk. Yours truly THE MANAGER. ONLY JUSTICE. The question of an appropriation for the purpose of securing some suitable boats for the boat club of the University will come up in the athletic board meeting next Monday evening. An appropriation of two hundred dollars will be asked. This is a question entitled to careful consideration. Our association has encouraged foot ball, base ball, and tennis by giving them substantial aid and it is only justice that the amount asked should be allowed for the furtherance of the boating interests of the Univerfity. Boating is just as important a branch of athletics as any of those mentioned above. Last year, although being at a disadvantage in not having decent bouts, great enthusiasm was shown over the races. Our course is one of the best in the west, but it can not be utilized until good boats are secured. A good crew to represent the University in races with the Kansas City boat club, the St. Joseph club, or the Washington University club, would prove a great advertisement. Give us the boats, we have the material and the course. THE GLEE AND BANJO CLUB. A University Glee and Banjo club that would be a credit to the University has long been earnestly desired by the faculty and students alike. But such organizations do not spring full fledged into existence. It takes time end patient practice, yet success is sure to crown earnest effort in this, as in foot ball, or in any other college feature in which we excel. It is very gratifying to the Courier to know that the Glee and Banjo club as now organized has a membership that insures its success, and that it will command the hearty support of all is an assured fact. The club is now busily engaged in the preparation of a splendid program for its April tour of the state, and when it gives a home concert upon its return, the merits of the organization will be made potent to the most skeptical The Glee and Banjo club is a winner. A Question. To the Editor of the COURIER: In no spirit of idle criticism, and without seeing the political grapes sour I should like to inquire what the athletic board has done this year? And I should especially like to know what has been done towards putting the new athletic field in shape. Last fall when the agrarian revolt took place great things were promised, and even those who had carefully watched by the cradle of the athletic association and by tender care and guidance had brought it to the strength of youth, thought that the energy of new blood might accomplish great results for athletic interests in K. S. U. And for a time indeed the expectations seemed likely to be realized. The foot ball club worked hard for proficiency on the field, and their efforts placed the foot ball pennant with the University of Kansas. But when the investigator delves to the bottom of affairs and studies the means of their success, it appears that our victories were in spite of the athletic association, rather than by its assistance. Copper it is true held weekly sessions and presided with dignity. Challiss got up in meeting and harangued, and Holmes braced down field with head erect and a bucket of water, but the foot ball games were won by the men who got out on the field and practiced hard and often and by the able and, for the first time in our athletic history, the impartial management given the team by Prof. Hopkins. The halcyon Indian summer days piled themselves upon each other and lengthened into months. The green leaves on the trees withered and fell, the grass of the field lost its verdant hue, the executive committee of the athletic association moved not. When the previous board had gone out of Yo power, with a rush, arrangements had been made to push the work of securing the Robinson tract to completion. What disposition has since been made of the plans that were generally accepted and approved by the students and faculty for beginning work I am in no position to know, but it is evident from the way the Robinson tract is still firmly wrapped in the embrace of nature that it is no nearer becoming a foot ball ground or a base ball diamond than when the "slate" went through without a scratch or break last September. There is no cause that a person not in the inner circle of this executive board can imagine for this delay. By the report of the treasurer published in last week's Courier it is apparent that money lies in the treasury useless. Money placed there for the most part by the board of the proceeding year, which fact should have made the present management more scrupulous to have seen that it was put to an immediate and proper use. The Chancellor, the students, and the faculty, together with Regent Gleed sanctioned the purchase of the Robinson tract and the commencement of work at once to put it in shape for an Athletic field. The purchase, I believe, in the inspiration, of power newly won and in the self-importance felt by new officials, was carried out. But why did not the good work go on? And autumn grew into winter and nothing was done. Winter, a mild one, during which preliminary work could have been carried on, came and it too passed away. And now the snows and ice have melted away before the breezes of spring, the grass is again becoming green and the swelling buds of the trees will soon send forth their leaves, but the executive committee of the athletic association insensible to the calls of nature and of man is still hibernating. In all this well intended criticism I may be doing an injustice to the able executive committee, as they may have in the embryo, some mastery scheme which some day they will spring, like Minerva, full fledged, and in all its completeness and grandeur upon a long waiting public. If such should be the case I would join in a shout of benediction and praise in regard to the agrarian revolt and send up my voice to the heavens with fervent feeling in the joyful chorus of "amen." But as there are no data to give promise of any such "coupe-d-tat" I will venture the prediction that the end of the year will see the athletic field in "status quo" and that next fall the present athletic board will go the way of their predecessor and a responsible and energetic management be placed in charge.

And there is a heap of trouble with a "tolerably" good lamp. There is one lamp good without the tolerable—THE ROCHCESTER SIMPLE, BEAUTIFUL, Good—these words mean much, but to see THE ROCHCESTER will impress the truth more forcibly. All metal, touch 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. Some lamps are TOLERABLY good, velous light is purer and brighter than gas light, softer than electric light and more cheerful than either. The Rochester Look for this stamp—THE ROCHEREST.

Chancellor Snow received last Saturday an application from Texas for chinch bug infection. Prof. Templin is becoming quite popular as a professor of "sleep," otherwise called hypnotism. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MARCH 11. Will those students who think they are "sharp and tricky" please cease visiting some one else's dinners? You know what we mean. Prof. Marvin read a paper Tuesday evening before the Unity Club on the Feats of Modern Engineering. It was very instructive. At an examination of students one young man being asked to describe Henry viii replied, "He was a professional widower." Prof. Carruth gave an interesting and practical talk before the Beta Chapter of Alpha Nu last Saturday evening. His subject was "A Trip to Europe, and its Cost." Chancellor James H. Canfield will deliver an address before the L. A. C.E. society, Kansas City, on March 21. His subject will be "The Rise and Growth of Individualism." And still the K.

There were 8 contestants The statutes for nine mountain sheep, five elk, 2 carabou, 8 deer, 3 antelope and 2 moose are almost ready for completion. Dyche is making great preparations for a grand display at Chicago in the near future. The Kansas University will be well advertised by the world's fair. A party of Law students took possession of the University Monday morning. After a thorough investigation of our ideal chapel exercises at which they were present they departed full of the kindest sympathy for K. S. U. Don't get nervous—the electric machine used by the University is the same as that being used in Sing Sing to electrocute prisoners of murderous tendencies. However, it does not necessarily follow that out electrical machine may ever be used for that purpose. The Seminary notes were distributed this week. It is the best number of the college year. Prof. Templin's Logic class will begin the study of Psycology next week, James' text book will be used. Prof. Blake will soon finish a series of lectures on the subject of electricity, after which he begins on the subject of light.

Coleman has been appointed assistant in entomology to Prof. Kellogg. Huddleston assumes the duties of first guide and Watson of Emporia takes Huddleston's place second guide. The University Mandolin Club did themselves proud last Friday evening at the Riley entertainment. This is their first appearance and if the ovations given them by an appreciative audience do not turn their heads we may expect great things of them. The club is under the direct management of Bob Saunders. Let the good work go on. Univer- ity Senate. The senate convened at 8 o'clock Tuesday evening, the regular time of holding its weekly session.

The Laws are well represented on the senate standing committees. They have the entire membership of the judiciary committee. Locke has been quite sick for some time, but is now improving.

OUR "Heat editor's" latest: To Lawrence they never refer to the oldest inhabitant;' Miss So-and-so does just as well. It is very gratifying to see so many old University boys coming to front in Kansas politics. A number of them will soon write "Hon." before their names. The Historica. Seminary is increasing in interest at every meeting. Several of the most prominent men of the state will deliver addresses before it during the present term. THE COURRIER was made the official journal of the University Senate at its last meeting. The honor is duly appreciated and a full report of each meeting will be published. THE COURIER should not be held responsible for the communications which appear in its columns. They are given for what they are worth, and any one has the privilege of answering them. Now that the schedule of the Triangular League has been completed it is time for the annual boast of each member. As K.U. already has two pennants, it will refrain from being the first to speak of the invincible nine. QUITE a number of our college friends failed to appreciate "Shylock and Justice." It may be of interest to them to know that, Mr. Challiss by special request, delivered his oration before a critical literary society of Kansas City last Friday evening. THE famous Calvary library of Berlin has been purchased by the University of Chicago. This is said to be the largest book deal ever made. The University now owns the second largest college library in the United States, it numbering 325,000 volumes. Mr. W. H. Rossington, of Topeka, one of the leading lawyers of Kansas, and a firm friend of our institution, has made the University a valuable donation in the shape of a complete set of the Bohn standard library which numbers 140 volumes. Mr. Rossington will please accept the thanks of the University for his generous gift. THE law school is especially fortunate this year in having a special course of lectures by eminent members of the Kancas bar. By this means many particular subjects which are only touched in a general way in the law school are expounded by those having practical familiarity with them. The student is also brought into direct contact with the leaders of the state bar and receives the benefits of a personal acquaintance. The list as now made up includes over forty lawyers of known ability. Chauncey M. Depew in the course of his remarks at a dinner given by the Yale men to Walter Camp paid the following eloquent tribute to athletics. COLLEGE ATHLETICS. "It is not twenty five years since a large majority of the men and women of this country associated physical training and athletic superiority with a close cropped, bullet head and intellectual prominence with a frail figure and a hacking cough, surmounted by a dome of thought. All of us in middle life can remember that the minister, the lawyer, or the doctor of the village who could box, belonged to a ball club or was a member of an amateur rowing association, had no hope of success. It was felt that such tendencies were incompatable with the care of estates, the saving of bodies or the saving of souls. The athletic field is recovering from some of the peculiarities which marked its development. Brutality is a rare incident, chivalry and manliness the constant factors in college athletics. It was the saying of an English political economist that it took three Bs to make a lord chancellor, the highest prize at the English bar—belly, back and brains. A fully developed and healthy boy, harmoniously trained by an expert instructor and growing stronger with an enlargening intellect, furnishes the combination which in the rough competitions of life enables a man to help himself, and, better still, help others. A healthy soul, a healthy mind, a healthy digestion and a healthy breathing apparatus not only stride masterfully toward the pearly gates of heaven, but draw many weaker vessels behind. "When I was in Greece last year I gazed with awe and admiration upon the statue of Hermes by Praxiteles. It is the perfection of physical beauty and noble expression. Its mold was the Greek youth who had won the prizes at the academy and carried off the wreath in the Olympian games. It was perfected and harmoniously developed humanity, which the sculptor had fashioned, and then, by an inspired touch, given his conception of Deity." THE CATALOGUE. The annual catalogue of the University is ready for distribution. It is the largest catalogue that has ever been issued from the institution and contains more information than any previous number. The actual number enrolled and attending classes regularly is 630, and there are 351 doing work in the University extension courses for credit, making a grand total of 981 students. There are 88 in the school of engineering, 112 in music and arts, 41 in Pharmacy, 98 in law and 283 in the school of arts. The post graduates number 29, the seniors 24, the juniors 47, the sophomores 51, the freshmen 102 and the special students 32. The credit enrollment of the extension courses show classes at Kansas City, Wichita, Topeka and Olathe. Besides he students enrolled for credit there are 600 in regular attendance at the lectures. The faculty now has forty-four members. The library contains over 16,000 volumes and the natural history cabinet collections contain 150,000 specimens of botony, entomology and zoology. It certainly makes a splendid showing for our institution. THE PEST BULLETIN. The University issued a bulletin last week that is of great interest to the farmers of the state. It treats of two insects which have been doing great damage to the wheat both in the field and in the grainry. It not only gives a careful history of the ravages of the insect but gives several remedies for the pest. Unlike the average bulletin is intended as a precautionary measure and not only tells what has been done but what should be done. The work is gotten out by the Chancellor and his able assistant, Mr. V.L Kellogg. Credit is also due Miss Wellman for the original sketches. Such efforts in behalf of the farming community of the state are very commendable and will no doubt be duely appreciated by all fair minded citizens. AN ANSWER To the Editor of the COURIER: Last week the inasitable public was treated to a mess of roasted athletic association with sour grapes on the side. With the silk stocking blue blooded element this went down very well, for there was no paucity of grapes for sauce, but to the class of students, to which the future of athletic interests in the University has been intrusted, it was a feast filled them almost "ad nauseam." The first question P. X. H. asks is "what has the athletic board done this year?" I would inform the gentleman that the present board has done more for the interest of athletics in this school than any other organization in the history of the institution. It has been more liberal in its appropriations and has done more for foot ball alone than its illustrious brass-collared predecessor did for all branches of athletics. Under its administration we have an interstate foot ball league formed and have a foot ball eleven that has removed the hoosiery from every other college eleven and stands today with its linen untorn, the first and the best in the state. I do not wish to detract from the glory of Prof. Hopkins, there is no one who appreciates his valuable services more than I do, and as a token of his ceaseless energy and good management the athletic board gave him a vote of thanks; more they could not do. But I wish to say, if it had not been for the help of the association in making appropriations for expenses, and the personal help of the members of the board, at home and abroad, some of the diamonds in the crown of the late foot ball management might have been rhinestone. P. X. H. says that the men who got out on the field and practiced, were the ones who won the pennant. We heartily agree with him in this, and as there were five members of the board who were on the eleven, the writer lays the flattering unction to his two by four soul, that the athletic board had a good deal to do with the destiny of that triangular rag. The Robinson tract, which was purchased late last fall for the use of the association, could not be touched until the board of endowment got hold of it. When this conservatus body decided that it was time to commence improvements the field was frozen up as tight as the proverbial bull and log chain. I would inform the gentleman, as he does not belong to the farmer element which he so blindly attacks, tha. it is not customary to plough and grade frozen ground. I would further say that the plat of ground has been surveyed and estimates made as to the probable cost of grading. This could not be done in a day nor a week and further it was impossible to proceed with grading until it was known what and where to grade. A student can use horse sense as well as he can use a horse in anything else. Over two months ago the athletic board placed in the hands of a committee the power to go ahead and grade the grounds in question. The committee consisted of the men most competent to fill the position in the University. As a result of that committee's work an advertisement for bids has been running in the daily paper for over a week. The fullness of the time has come, and when the mud dries up so that it is possible to work, the Robinson tract of land will be received from that "embrace of nature," of which P. Y. H. so eloquently spoke. The tone of the article makes it the second chapter in a series of articles, the first of which appeared in the Journal last fall, soon after the association election. It is a disgruntled snarl directed toward a body, whose only crime is, that it is a living reproach to the extravagant claims of an assumptions and obtusive clique, heretofore reigning supreme. The agrarian revolt of last fail is spoken of several times in a very disparaging manner. It is a good thing to joke about the farmer element, and if the reader happens to belong to the brass collared mob, he is liable to smile, but when it comes to a matter of votes, the people have in their possession an ax, which is often used with such deadly affect, that it severs from the political tree, any useless, life sucking limbs; of which we had an illustration last fall. When the fairly beaten and non disconsolated plutocracy in the University realizes the fact that the mass of students are satisfied with their choice of officers of the Athletic Association I will assail the blue azure dome with the same Methodist "amen" that P. H.X. will use when the patent leather, laundered collared outfit again comes inpower; if it ever does. CUP. Yo CoL.

Rossington Will Present 134 Volumes to the University Library. The librarian of the State University will soon receive from Topeka 134 volumes of the Bohn standard library. Col. W. H. Rossington, a well known and wealthy Topeka lawyer makes this valuable present to the State University. These volumes, together with those already in the library, give the University a complete set of the Bohn publications, known as the Standard library; which comprises books of European literature in the English language on history, biography, theology and philosophy. They are translated from the French, German, Italian, Spanish, Latin and Greek. Triangular League. The officers of the Triangular League held a meeting last Monday at the Eldridge House to award prizes and to transact other business. Baker was represented by Rice and Dudgeon, Washburn by McVicar and Srich and the University by Prof. Hopkins and R. R. Whitman. The University was awarded the pennant in foot ball and the singles in tennis. A committee was appointed who were empowered to purchase a suitable pennant. The question in regard to holding a league field day was not favored by the majority of those present. However, this is not conclusive since this affair of holding a field day virtually depends upon the will of the local organization of each college. The base ball games were arranged after some discussion, as follows: Baker against Washburn at Topeka, April 25; Washburn against K. S. U. at Lawrence, April 30; K. S. U. against Baker at Baldwin, May 7; K. S. U. against Washburn at Topeka, May 14; Washburn against Baker at Baldwin, May 21; Baker against K. S. U. at Lawrence, May 30. Maticious Reports.

The chemistry department is receiving some supplies from St Louis this week. The Pharmaceutical society were entertained at their last meeting by a lecture from Prof. Stevens. His subject was the Sihizomics. One of the finest cabinets in the University is now being erected in the north laboratory of the chemistry building on the lower floor. The cabinet is to be used for materia medica specimens and is being supplied with some fine jars in which to preserve the samples. When completed it will form a most attractive object for the sightseer. Monte Gristo-Mr.James O'Neill Niblo's Garden was packed from parquet to gallery to welcome this favorite young actor's characterization of Edmond Dantes and Count of Monte Cristo, which are well known to the metropolitan stage.

[For beauty of sentiment, for latent but tender pathos, and for rich variety of expression the following poem is unsurpassed.] Oh, the gentle spring is coming You can hear the bees a bumming. And can see the bumps a bumming Everywhere: Oh! the balmy gurgling days, When all nature's in a haze, And the bright and cheerful rays Lot! the tender grasses springing, And the woods with music ringing. To our bosoms gladness Ibringing fullest share. Or the sun. Fill you with a calm delight. Make you feel 'way out of sight' Which is nothing more than right Aln't it fun? How you love to watch the robin With his little heart a brobbin' And his little tail a bobbin' While from out his tiny throat Streams of melody there float, And you simply sit and gloat, You're in the swim. When you cught to get your lesson And the time is rather pressin' But the air is so caressin', That you can't; When you linger to begin it. Wasting every precious minute. Then's the time 'you're deeply in it,' And you rant. When the silvery moonbeams tickle Through your open window trickle And you your fancy gently tickle As they glide; Then you throw aside your latin Quickly put your coat and hat on. And you study human nature On the side. What the Courier Would Like to See. A little excitement in general. A better attendance at chape exercises. The Missouri University located at Columbia. Everybody pay their COURIER subscription. The Phi Delrs place the colors on that sub-rosa man of theirs. A more lively interest taken in base ball by our various aspirants to fame upon the diamond. Every orator in the University prepare for the spring contest and then we will be sure of a successful contest. The officers of the athletic association get a hustle on themselves and take action on the question of a field day in May. A number of families, principally University people are about starting in a modest way,a co-operative dining hall. Those who are foremost in the enterprise are wives of some of the professors,who have ultimately in view the erection of a building adequate not only for the above purpose,but suitable for the establishment of a co-operative laundry, which when accomplished will greatly help solve one of the difficult problems of housekeeping. The Courier wishes these ladies every possible success. Finest tailor made Prince Albert coats and vests, all go at our dissolution sale prices. Boston Square Dealing Clothiers, Hatters & Furrnishers. CRAINS & URBANSKY. New Style of Coon Hunting. The inhabitants of the mountains west of this place are great coon hunters. Some nights ago Bill Bencheff and Colonel Yingling started out with half a dozen dogs and two boys to carry the pine torches. A coon was raised on the east side of the Mouterey, and the dogs chased it down through a deep and rough ravine and up a rocky spur on the west. After a climb of an hour Bencheff and Yingling at last came up with the dogs. They had run the coon into a tree aac' were snarling and barking around underneath. The boys whirled the torches and Bencheff bunged away at what he thought was the coon, but no animal tumbled. Yingling in the moountain had been tearing paper and trying to ignite a match, but it was damp and would only splatter. Benchko was derriding him when suddenly a great ball of fire illuminated space. Yingling had succeeded in igniting his match and was emptying a roman candle into the tree. The first ball struck a branch and burst and the second hit the coon "plumb center," its far caught fire and with a yell it came rolling down among the angry dogs. The third ball revealed two more coons in the tree, and Benchof's rife dropped one, while Yingling, with the last bull in the candle, hit the limb on which the third coon clung with pitiful terror, and it lost its hold and tumbled into the mouths of the waiting dogs. They got six more coats that night with the help of Yingling's candles, and now the colonel regularly shoots the romans and Benchcoff shoots the gun. They are the most successful coon hunters in all the region - Gettysburg (Pa.) Sentinel. He Carried a Muff. The other day a well carried man sat in a Boulevard car dressed up town. The day was cold, the car was full and the usual discomforts of surface transit were turned on. The man mentioned was the observed of all observers. He carried a common black muff on his knee, his hands thrust in either end, and had a far away look in his eyes. The ladies exchanged amused glances. The gentlemen regarded the muff with various degrees of wonder and contempt. "Newest style," suggested one gentleman to another. "Yes; it's going to be a cold day tomorrow. When you see the pigs carrying straws"—— "That beats me!" came in a stage whisper from across the way. "Wonder if he wears corsets," said another. "What is it, anyhow?" "Sorry I forgot my muff." "I'll steal my wife's sealskin sacque tonight." "Poor fellow! Somebody ought to see him home safely." Amid these remarks the man with the muff sat quietly looking out of the window. He must have overheard some of them; he must have known that he was the object of universal curiosity and ridicule, but he gave no sign. It appeared, however, that he was only collecting himself for some final effort, for when he arose to leave the car at Seventy-second street he suddenly confronted his fellow passengers. A curious state of affairs prevails in Nanticoke, Pa., a mining town of 11,000 inhabitants. Two-thirds of the population are for-eigners, mostly Huns, Poles and Italians. Three months ago the free mail delivery system was inaugurated in the town. It has proven a failure. A great deal of foreign mail matter is received at the postoffice daily, but no streets or numbers are given. The letter carriers simply take a bag of mail and march through the town blowing a whistle. "This is my wife's muff," he said bluntly. "She left it on the bargain counter. I had to go back and get it I'm taking it home. If you see anything funny in that I'm blamed if I do."—New York Herald. The People Sort the Mail. The people turn out and the carrier allows them to examine the letters. In this way he delivers to owners. The people are honest enough, and will not take a letter that does not belong to them. The postoffice authorities at Washington, however, do not like the mode of delivery, and it is likely that the free delivery system will be discontinued.—Cor. St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Chancellor Canfield will be banqueted this evening by those students who formerly took work under him. The ladies of the Pi Phi fraternity had a group picture taken last Saturday at Willis'. Prof. Williston and twelve of his students made an excursion to Blue Mound last Saturday to hunt specimens. The literary societies have been very fortunate in making arrangements with Mr. Horace Scudder of the Atlanta Monthly to address them during commencement week. The Natural History department is in receipt of a bill from Germany for apparatus to be used in bacteriology. The University is being "wired" preparatory to the introduction of electric lights. This will be a great improvement and will not only benefit but will save the University nearly $600 annually. It is not customary for the seniors to lore their dignity but to a person up a tree, to use a time worn phrase, it would seem that they did so at a recent class meeting. In place of making their exit through the doorway as is customary, they introduced an innovation and climbed out of the windows—because(?) At a recent meeting of the faculty in a discussion about excursions to Kansas City, it was decided to discourage them in the future. This disposition on the part of the faculty is to be applauded since a few of the students will persist in disgracing themselves and consequently the U., but the Courier questions its effectiveness. A sidewalk between the main building and the chemistry building is the latest improvement. Now build one from the University to the engine house and another very necessary improvement will have been made. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, MARCH 18, $ 1892^{7} $ The Glee club and also the Mandolin club had their pictures taken Monday.

The class in Mammalian anatomy under Miss Crotty is pursuing a very satisfactory and instructive study of the brain and its functions. Three different text books are being used, which gives the student very extensive information. The work is done very satisfactorily, and to make it even more complete the brain itself (not a human one however) is dissected and studied. Students who anticipate studying psychology, especially in its higher branches, should not fail to include this branch of science in their course which is so absolutely essential to a clear understanding of psychological phenomena.

The question of "late hours" at parties is now being considered by the ladies of their respective fraternities. At a meeting called a few days ago nothing definite was done. It wes decided however to hold a "grubb" in the near future to give the question due attention. In the mean time, though gray matter is being expended profusely upon this momentous subject and no doubt when the "grub" is had much evidence, pro and con will be delivered. The Pt Phi convention will be held in Lawrence during the spring vacation. There will probably be about fifty delegates in all, including officers. The ladies of the city chapter intend to give the visiting sisters a grand reception. At the banquet to be given in their honor there will probably be over two hundred present. Dancing is going to be relegated to oblivion and in its place "toasts" are to be introduced. Quite an innovation, but unquestionably a sensible one. The gentlemen of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity entertained their lady friends last Friday evening in their hall above the Journal office. The usual good time enjoyed at their entertainment is reported by all present. Dancing was kept up until a late hour. Those present were Misses Humphrey, Hulme, Hawkins, Ida Smith, Lucinda Smith, Rushmer, Hays, Riggs, Edith Haskell, Berry, Grubb, Snow, Jennie Sutliff, Adelia Humphrey, and Helen Sutliff, Messrs Cook, James McCall, Lyon, Tracy Learnard, Playter, Thrasher, Miller, Schall, Meyers, Porter, Profs.

May Smith Robbins, who takes the leading character, that of Trixie, became an immediate favorite, and her dancing and rendition of the Irish dialect took immensely. Mr. Fred Robbins as 'Winterpippin' was very amusing and his painting of a landscape scene in two minutes was vigorously applauded.

Although you have gone to another field you are still one of us, and it is with hearts full of pleasure and friendship that we greet you once more. This day we devote to you. May it add to the already pleasant memories of our past labors and associations. McCook FIELD is no longer an idle fancy but is almost a reality. DURING 1890-1 over one hundred lectures were delivered by the faculty of the University of Kansas. JUDGING from present indications it will soon be Chicago and Leland Stanford Jr., versus Harvard and Yale. Up to date twenty-seven colleges have reported yellow and gold as their colors. Another argument for crimson. With two pennants already won and another in sight, the University of Kansas is liable to become over-stocked in that line. SEVERAL of the state colleges are flaunting the motto, "Brains not Brawn." A combination of both will do very well for our University. OUR suggestion of the organization of a state college press association seems to have fallen flat for some unknown reason. The management of Yale has decided that next fall all post graduate courses with the degree of Ph. D. will be thrown open without regard to sex. Yale is the first of the great universities of this country to make this change. THE March number of the University Extension,a journal devoted to the interests of popular education contains an article written by Prof. F.W.Blackmar on University Extension in the Southwest. The article gives a complete history of the extension movement in all the western institutions but pays especial attention to the work in connection with our own University. It shows the progress that has been made in the west and predicts that while many obstacles will be met with,yet the general result of the movement can not help but be favorable. If there is any part of a students character that he does not want inspected, he had better not belong to a state oratorical executive committee, or enter the contest as an crator,or edit a college paper.-College Life. Perhaps the editor, Mr.V.C. Cook, speaks from experience. THE lack of athletic spirit in the college of Emporia is at last accounted for. It has just been discovered that their gymnasium is being used as a poultry yard. Such efforts to increase the endowment of the college are to be applauded. WESTERN GROWTH. Only a few years ago every one looked to Harvard and Yale to take the lead in all educational work, and at that time the idea of any western university attempting to rival either of those institutions would not have been entertained for a moment. But the times are changing. Princeton forged to the front, then followed Cornell and the University of Michigan and today the Chicago University and the Leland Stanford Jr., University are making rapid strides in the educational world, not to speak of the Universities of Wisconsin. Kansas and Nebraska, all of which are making splendid progress. It is true that the eastern institutions have the prestage of their age and traditions, but aside from that the western schools will soon be their equals in every respect. That this is the inevitable result is proven by the fact that many of the eastern educators, men of national reputation, are accepting positions in western institutions. Another example of the western growth is furnished by the purchase of the great Calrary library by theChicago University a few weeks ago. The grand and generous gifts of Leland Stanford and John G. Rockafeller, however, have been the greatest factors in securing the proper recognition of our western universities. COLLEGE WOMEN. In the Athletic World, Baker and Washburn are becoming skeptical of the old saying, "all things come to him who waits." Our motto is 'Go after them'; and it has always been a winner. Perhaps this view of the question will not please the elite college journals of the east, but the indisputable fact remains, however, that the east is rapidly losing their once boasted supremacy in the educational world and that the west is going to the front with gigantic strides. Granting that in a few more years the west will equal the east in college facilities it does not necessarily follow that the custom of the western boy taking advanced work in the east will be discontinued. On the contrary the custom will continue to grow. But if it is beneficial for the western boy to spend a year or two in the east the same will hold true of the eastern boy in the west. It is a fact that there is a great diversity of ideas and customs between eastern and western people. Then why not make an equal exchange of students each year. The only hindrance to such a move would be the prejudices of the eastern people. They have an idea that they hold the citadel of higher education and that it is absolutely impregnable. This state of affairs will not continue much longer, however, The western pluck and energy will soon force them from their narrow-minded position, and they will be compelled to recognize their worthy equals. When this is accomplished all will be well. The east will come west and the west will go east. It is curious to note that the form of education which women seem just now most anxious to obtain is almost purely literary. At a time when men are loudly complaining that Oxford and Cambridge have almost cut themselves off from the active life of the country, and that by neglecting the practical study of law, medicine, surgery and technical production they have resolved themselves into what would be called at a continental university a gigantic "faculty of arts," women are crowding to these discredited institutions and eagerly taking up the abandoned "arts" as the latest and most complete form of intellectual life open to them. While men are beginning to assert that they can no longer afford the luxury of a university education, that they must leave that either to the men of leisure or the future schoolmasters and teachers, women turn to it as perhaps the most practical opening left to them. Perhaps they are right. It is not impossible that in time women's hands may have a great share in the higher secretarial and educational work of the country notwithstanding the fact that there is no form of opinion more fluctuating than the Views of Women as to their place and possibilities in life.—London Snectator. From out of the midst of the lurid glare caused by the communications which appeared in the last two issues of this paper comes the welcome news that the contract has been let for the grading of McCook Field, the work to be completed by the first of May. A grand stand, club house, and fence will then be erected, the extra expenditure in the fixing up of the field to be about twenty-five hundred dollars. In a short time we will have an athletic park that is worthy of the University of Kansas. FROM present indications the University of Missouri will be moved from Columbia to Sedalia. Sedalia in many respects is the better location for a university, but it seems like starting anew to break away from the old place. However the move will bring our Missouri sister nearer to us and consequently the rivalry between M. U. and K. U. will become much stronger.

Its real name is isosomatritici erorocehalatitus, but the professor calls it isosomatritici for short. —Victoe Murdock in Wichita Eagle. If color counts for anything, Marsh Murdock should be K.

Send your steward around to Jones' Grocery for best groceries and lowest prices. Two weeks ago your readers were entertained by an unfair partisan attack on the present athletic board of the University. Last week a champion of the present regime came forward and to our great delectation proceeded to annihilate the writer of the previous week. I have no desire to discuss the points at issue between them, but only to call the attention of all friends of athletics in the University to the general unfairness of both writers, and to the evident purpose and tendency of their dispute. On the other hand it was unfair for the second writer to dub the previous athletic board, whose deliberations were presided over by one of our fairest-minded professors who has worked earnestly and impartially for the cause of athletics much longer than any present student has attended the University; a board which managed our part in the organization of the Triangular League and in it won our first pennant; a board which without expense to anybody secured and placed in position our gymnasium apparatus, small though it be; a board which almost consummated the arrangements carried out this year for the purchase of the McCook Field, and elected the present manager of our foot ball interests under whose administration all our glories in that line have been won—it is unfair, I say to call that board an "illustrous brass colared predecessor," "an assumptuous and obtrusive clique, hercetofore reigning supreme," etc., etc. The writer of that article knew very well that no clique has reigned supreme in athletics here in the present generation. Now a word as to the purpose and tendency of this particular discussion. Both writers are evidently extremists in their respective parties, and they are both anxious to win supporters for their own extreme views. Such partisans exist everywhere, but it is a sad thing for an institution to have its policy directed by them. They are not the exponents of the true athletic spirit in the University. They are attempting to divide the house against itself to gratify personal ambition or spite. The true friends of athletics should be followers of neither. It was unfair for the first writer to attempt to rob the present administration of all the credit of our successful foot ball campaign; it was unfair for him to blame the board for delay in the matter of grading the McCook Field, as is evident to any one who has given the matter a life attention. It is not at all likely that the writer was ignorant of the fact that this business was entirely in the hands of the University endowment association. The cause deserves the undivided support of all. It was such support which made our glorious victories in baseball last spring and in football last fall possible.

W. Practical Telegraphy. The climate is certainly one of the most bracing that I ever was in. When I was in Chicago on my way up her I was told that when I got here I would want to double up my fist and knock down the first man that I came to, not out of mean motives at all, but just for the amusement and personal satisfaction that one gets from, exercise when he feels like moving around. When I got here I found there was a deal of truth in what the man had told me. I put in from an hour and a half to two hours and a half a day wearing out the side walks, never take a street car unless I am in a hurry, or going 12 or 15 miles. I have been up to Minneapolis twice since coming." Speaking of his work he says: "Up here we have a 12,000 to 15,000 word report and some times more, to handle in the same time that I used to handle the Kansas report. They abbreviate and "cut it up" all that is possible. When a first class operator gets behind the key and begins to pound it into you and uses abbreviations at the rate of 240 a minute, you can just better believe there has got to be some hustling done. They use "Jx" for "it is;" "Tx" for "this is;" "Pr" for "president," "Aut" for "adjourned until tomorrow;" "Yam" for "yesterday morning;" "Pem" for "presented a memorial;" "Td" for "treasury department;" and a few more about as bad and then try to see how fast they can crowd a man. It is sweating work even during a blizzard." Practical Teleography. Louis Russel, a former student writes from St. Paul, Minn., where he is located in charge of the United Press and dispatch office. He says: CROWN AND SCEPTER. The full name of the Princess Victoria May is Victoria Mary Augusta Louisa Olga Paula Claudine Agnes. Leopold II, the reigning monarch of Belgium has no son, and the heir to the crown is his brother, Philip, count of Flanders. Osseur II of Sweden married Princess Sophia of the mediatized duchy of Nassau, and has four sons, the eldest of whom is the prince royal, Gustavus. The month of January is always regarded with the most gloomy anticipation by the queen of the Belgians, who believes it will inevitably bring some misfortune. The German empress is in the habit of writing for a few minutes daily in her diary. A lady who for years has had the honor of her majesty's friendship says that the contents of the diary, not even the emperor. The King of the Greeks has no lack of direct descendants. His heir, Prince Constantine, is the eldest of eight children, and has a son, George, born in 1800, the offspring of a marriage with Sophia, third sister of the Kaiser William.

Money to loan on personal property at Passon's Bazar,723 Mass. st. At last the contract for grading the athletic field has been let, and active work will soon be done towards fitting it up for immediate occupation. Prof. Marvin has been appointed by Chancellow Snow to oversee the work which assures good results. When completed, the grounds will be the finest of its kind in the west. Besides the base ball, tennis and foot ball grounds which it will include, there will also be a spacious grand stand and other necessary buildings. But there is one thing lacking which would be conducive to convenience as well as a good bank account for those immediately concerned—The extension of the Lawrence Street railway system. It would not cost a great deal to extend the Tennessee street track west to the engine house, southwest of the University, and then north to the grounds and on to Massachusetts street by the best route possible. The grade is a splendid one and the results realized from a financial standpoint alone would compense those concerned. Why not investigate this matter Mr. Athletic Association? Field Day. By all means let us have a rousing field day. Let us shake the dust off our shoes and go in with a hurrah for one day of sport. We have plenty of good material to make it successful. The merchants would only be too glad to contribute to its success. They have manifested a most liberal spirit in the past toward helping such an enterprise. Then why not have a field day? Why not have a most enjoyable contest just to find out, if nothing else, who is our champion foot racer, who can jump the farthest, who can throw throw the farthest and etc, etc There is Dobson, an all around athletic, and who they say can run like the wind, and there is Sherman and hosts of others are willing to go into the arena if only an opportunity is offered Of course this is a little early to agitate the question but if we are going to have an early one, say the first week in May, then we must make early preparations. Let us have a field day. A Cake of Palfner's Boquet Soap for your own personal use, is "French" of course, but it's nice, from Raymonds.

After the milk-and-water society melodramas which have been running here all winter it is refreshing to see one of the old-fashioned realistic dramas, such as 'The Bandit King,' which was produced at Niblo's Garden last night.

Let dull age go weep and pray; Heed not grief, the ghost there, greening. Who would cloud the journ day! Ah, they say that anguish found them, Men cut down with battle round them— (Hear the boys there gayly singing!) In some region far away! What lunge care on earth today? Bring no tears, what'er you're bringing; Honor to the journ day! What's that sound that cools our laughter? What's that form that follows after" Funeral music sounded so- One more man is turned to clay. Let dull age go weep and pray! Lying there in breathless blindness, Death is never far away. Even youth can weep and pray! I suspect that loved have lost their kindness; Daughter is never far away. Rose Hawthorne Lathrop in Serilrer's. Returned the Papers. moved into a house that had been previously occupied by another gentleman who was a subscriber to one of the evening papers. The carrier of course continued leaving the paper for a space of a year, never having been notified of the change. The collector recently went around to collect for the paper, the bill being made out in the name of the gentleman who had subscribed. When the collector presented the bill the gentleman of the house said: "Why, my dear sir, that man has not lived here for over a year. You are at the wrong house." "Well, has not the carrier been leaving you a copy of the paper all the time?" "Yes, sir. But I did not subscribe and I told the boy to quit leaving it But he never did so." "You have received the paper every day, haven't you?" "Yes, sir." "Then you ought to pay for it." "Well, excuse me a moment," and the gentleman went into the house.

Not the Worst Girl in the World. Not the Worst Girl in the World. Professor Chapman, of Bowdoin college, told the following story at an alumni dinner: "I feel like the little girl of a mine in Portland. She just must know about expressing herself in intelligent sentences. One day she had done something for which her mamma had to reprove her. The lady gave her daughter a sound lecture and then told her to go up stairs alone, in her room, and ask God to forgive her for her error. “In a few minutes she was surprised to see the baby come down stairs again. appear in the sitting room and stand back with a great deal of seriousness. “‘Well, did you go up and do what I told you?’ asked the fond mother. ‘Yes,’ replied the guilty one, ‘and God said, ‘Great Scott!

After roll call and reading of the journal the senate proceeded to the transaction of regular routine business. The seating of the senator from Minnesota, was contested and by a unanimous vote it was decided to leave the investigation to the committee of credentials. The principal business of the evening was a discussion on the bill, the "Free Coinage of Silver." Said the senator from Nebraska, the originator of the bill, "This question is of national importance, yet vaguely understood It is not, strictly speaking, a question upon which the political lines are coarsely drawn but that time is fast approaching. He then gave a short history of the silver dollar and said that since it had been made subject to gold its value was certainly on the decline. It is not true that the United States will become a dumping ground for silver if we coin it free. India alone has free coinage. Why has she not been made the victim of other nation's silver? He made a good plea for free silver. Senator Palmer followed with a negative speech and he in turn by others but space will not permit of their very able speeches which were made both pro and con. The hour being late it was decided not to take final action on the bill but dabate it further. The meeting adjourned with a feeling and spirit that augured prosperity for K. S. U's., Moot Senate. Notice those 10c Canes at Smith's News Depot. The separation of a young married man and lady after one year of married life is just what has been expected for some time. The event occurred two or three days ago. The lady was quite young and ran away from her parents and married on her fifteenth birthday against the wishes of both her parents. The young man to whom she wedded was full twenty years of age and had a pouchant for idleness together with strong drink which used up all the means a vagrant could command. Mrs. Savage is expected back from Chicago soon where she has gone to purchase a complete stock of new spring millinery. About the 20th of this month Mrs. Savage will move her entire stock into the room just vacated by Wm. Bromelsick and will there display her elegant assortment of millinery goods. MASCULINE MENTION. Mr. Ghidstone always shaves himself, and he is eighty-four. Lieutenant Governor Sheehan, of New York, and Governor Francis, of Missouri look like brothers. Millionaire C. P. Huntington like nothing better, when feeling out of sorts, than to saw and split a few sticks of cordwood. He used to do it for his health. Francis Brady, a cooper, twenty-seven years old, living in Millersville, PA., resides in the same house in which he was born and has never been out of sight of it. Senator Gilson, of Maryland, is six feet tall, with broad shoulders. He has brown hair and a brown mustache, with a gray beard. He '84 one of the most popular of senators. Dr. Selim, physician to the late khedive, and whose treatment of his illustrious patient has been much criticised, is a Christiaan graduate of the University of New York. Ex-Mayor Frederick O. Prince, of Boston, although over seventy years of age, is very painstaking, almost foppish, in his work. He lives in New York and becoming, are of an obsolete shame. Minister Patrick Egan is a low voiced, quiet looking person, of small stature, past fifty, with plenty of gray hairs in his close trimmed, reddish brown beard and hair, restless blue eyes and small hands and feet. Eugene Richter, leader of the Liberals in Germany, has a remarkable memory. He can commit to memory long tables of figures, and is invaluable for his ability in correcting any misstatement in figures in speeches. Judge Holman, one of the most interesting figures in American public life, is more than seventy years of age. One of his favorite exclamations is, "Oh, my, my! Another is, "This will never do; oh, no, it will never do." General O. O. Howard is not a tall man, but he has a distinctive military bearing and is easily picked out in a company. He invariably wears a military coat that has an empty coat sleeve, having lost an arm in the battle of Fair Oaks. Mr. Vilas, of Wisconsin, is one of the handsome men in the senate. He is a man of medium height and physique, with a full dark board, which he wears neatly trimmed. He dresses in great taste and is a picturesque talker. Cardinal Ledochowski, the new prefect of the Propaganda at Rome, is of tall and ascetic figure. His face is broad and square, but the features are delicately cut, giving him an airy and luminous glow. He has always been noted for elegance of speech and great dignity of bearing. Secretary Foster has thin dark brown hair. A black guard ribbon is his nearest approach to ornament. He is tactical, wary, but not cold or dry. His salutation sets the caller at ease. His face is shred, but not severe—kind, but none weak. The eyes observe the jaw takes (of the will). Sherman Hour, the young congressman from Massachusetts, was the model selected for the statue of John Harvard. Mr. Hour's face was not copied closely, but the professors and sculptor decided that in his features and figure he resembled their ideal of the man whom they wanted to honor with a monument. Bishop Donne, who made the prayer at Governor Flower's inauguration, wears knee breeches and silk stockings, with a closely buttoned coat of broadleth, and aape of the same material. His head cover is a gold chain, trim tied up with strips of ribbon and suspended from his neck by a thin chain of gold is a golden crucifix. FEMININE FANCIES.

Ask the Beta's what ham-dog is The Betas have organized a quar pet. Ask Kinzie about the window episode. Examinations will soon be in order. Dan Crew is a candidate for councilman. Chancellor Snow will lecture in Boleti this evening. the freshman chemistry class had their pictures taken Wednesday. John Rush is a candidate for congress=or rather city councilman. Prof. Miller was given a banquet in the close of his lecture course at Wichita. The spring contest will take place the Friday evening of the last week in April. Cap. Peabody has the reputation of being the smoothest writer in the composition class. The trigonometry classes have been going through the ordeal of a quiz each day this week. The Courier company is going to issue a daily edition of the paper during commencement week. Mont Hallowell is editor-in-chief of the Kansas University COURHR, a chipper college paper that is always bright and entertaining. Wichita Eagle. The name of the new insect now infecting the wheat is isosamatritici- erorocephalalitus. How fortunate for the farmers that the insect is not as big as its name! The University law school has adopted a very clever combination of colors. The names of their regular instructors are Green and Brownell. As colors they have adopted ribbon of two shades. Green over a brown L. Jean Neilson, a Kappa, scored first place at the state contest held at Indianapolis. She had a magnificent oration. The Kappa's are to be congratulated. The law school attended the lecture in a body last Friday night accompanied by instructors and janitor. They were afraid, apparently, to go alone on account of the time they had on Thursday. R. D. Brown is reported to have wept bitterly in the presence of his grandmother's spirit the other night at the spiritual seance. It required several handkerchiefs to stem the tide of tears. College spirit has increased quite noticeably during the past week. Prof. Templein exposed another medium last Thursday in K.C. The K.C. Star gave a full account of the affair in Friday's issue. Every fellow who was in the "scrap" last week imagined himself the greatest hero of the conflict, and persists in narrating his exploits to any one who will listen. No paper which hangs on the rack in the University library with the exception of Lawrence dailies is thumbed and read more than the Kansas City Star. Independent, fair, able and clean editorials are appreciated by the University students. If the present senior class continue to be as progressive and energetic when they graduate as they have been within the last four years the world will witness a few reforms ere long. Their latest manifestation of originality is a novel one indeed Instead of the antiquated class day exercises, essays, orations etc., they are going to substitute a farce comedy. As was announced in last weeks issue of the COURIER, the examination of the applicants to write spring poetry was held. Shearer and Whitman tied for first place. Shearer is going to write a poem on "The Sanitary Influence of Hair Vigor or The Shaggy Intellectual" and Whitman is going to write on "Athletics' Cosmetics and Politics or How the Machine is Run." Principal F.H. Clark of the Minneapolis schools, gave a very instructive lecture last Friday p. m. His subject was "The Origin of the Aryans." He treated it in a historical manner and laid before the students gathered a large amount of matter on the subject that it has not been possible for them to get. Prof. Clark is a very pleasant talker and the meeting of the seminary was one of the most profitable of the year. Money to loan on personal property at Passon's Bazar,723 Mass. st. The friendly bout which the Laws and collegiates indulged in last Thursday would havepassed unmarred if it had not been for the "Papa" of Laws, that long whiskered man from Borneo,who it is said bears the appellation of professor. He showed his littleness and inability to control his temper by striking three different students in the face. Only the gentlemanly bearing of the respective students saved him from being awakened to his senses. Buy your Baseball of Smith. PERSONALS. Miss Bessie hand returned from home last Monday. Misses Russell and Rushmer were visiting friends on Mt. Oread Tuesday. Fred Morris spent a few days in Fredonia during the week. Prof. J. H. Canfield stopped over in Lawrence, Monday on his way home. Blaker and Babbitt are guilty of a henious crime. Look on their upper lip. Oh! my! John Noble, an electrical engineer, student of last year's class, spent a few days at home during the week. A. W. Vainman, brother of Chaney Vainman, paid K. U. a short visit the first of the week. He is secretary of a college near McPherson, Kan. Ed Keys, who attended the University last year, but who is now teaching in the Cooper Memorial College at Sterling, Kan., spent Sunday with his Sigma Nu brothers. Moot Senate. The senate went into a committee of the whole to discuss the silver question. This same question was discussed before and one would naturally suppose from the voluminous speeches made that the subject had been exhausted, but not so. The senator from Nebraska led off with a speech in the affirmative. He brought forward many good points but these seemed to vanish into oblivious desuetude when the senators from Illinois, Michigan and South Dakota had done speaking, by a large majority vote the committee acted unfavorably to the bill and then arose. After the chairman had handed in the report of the committee the question was again thrown open to discussion and soon the tide of oratory began to flow Senator Holmes from Arkansas made a ringing speech against the bill and sat down amid the cheers of the free silver antagonists. He fully demonstrated in his own way that the west on the whole would be the loser should the bill be passed. Senator Challiss from Texas followed next with facts and figures to prove that free coinage would be detrimental to the country. Brown of Michigan was of the same opinion. Although the democrates are in the majority they don't seem to be inclined to voice the sentiment of their brethern throughout the country on free silver for when the question came to a vote during the evening it was lost: 20 voting nay; 8 voting aye. Buy your Sunday paper of Smith. Prize Contest. The Courier would like to see more enthusiasm manifested in the coming April contest. For the interest of those who seem to be laboring under some doubt we will make this statement: That all are eligible to this contest except the winner of the January contest. But no oration delivered at the winter contest can be used. Also the winner in the spring contest is eligible to the winter contest as well as his oration. Here is an excellent opportunity for aspirants to fame upon on the rostrum to gain experience and be recompensed for their trouble. The first prize is $15, the second $10. If you have not written an oration begin at once. You will have ample time to finish it during the spring vacation and then if you desire to enter the contest next January, a summer's work upon your oration will develop, perhaps a masterpiece. There are a few in school who have already written orations, possible for the High School which they have attended or perhaps some college. Why not brighten them a little, smooth the rugged style of puerile mannerisms and make use of the oration in the April contest? At least try. If you should fail to gain admittance your work will not have been in vain, and even though you should be one of six contestants and have failed, your experience gained will be invaluable. Perhaps it will take a little pluck for a freshman to enter, but if you are afraid to assert yourself now, when will you assert yourself? If you don't try to assert yourself rest assured that no one else will. Prepare your oration and enter the contest. The Lecture Bureau. The University Lecture bureau met last week for organization and election of officers. The members have all been chosen and are as follows: Profs. Templin, Sterling, Messrs Riggs, O'Leary, Harrington, Kutz, Bartlett, Parrott; Miss Scott and Mrs. Bell of the student body. The bureau organized by electing Prof. Templin president, R. D. O'Leary secretary, and Prof. Sterling treasurer. An informal vote showed the bureau to be in favor of a course of six entertainments for next year, four lectures and two concerts. The course will cost $1,000 or more. The price of course tickets will be placed at $2 and the committee expects to dispose of 600 of them at that figure. The secretary was instructed to open negotiations at once with the various managers and lecture bureaus of the country and secure a list of attractions for next year. No. 27. Buy your Base Ball of Smith. Canfield's Address. The enthusiasm which was manifested by the students toward Chancellor Canfield last Friday evening proves very conclusively that he still holds a warm place in the hearts of the students. Not only the students greeted him, but many of his friends in the city. The hall was crowded. After his address the Chancellor held a short reception for his old students, who would have been too glad to banquet him but a previous engagement forbade. The students went to the train in a body to see the Professor off. This is the substance of the address. He wanted individualism to be taken as opposed to the masses or herd. One man is standing out from a community. Then the history of the Hebrews was taken up and it was shown that no element of individualism existed with them. It was the same way with the Greeks and Romans. But with the northern tribes, the Teutons, there was something different. They broke down the old order of things and the individual began to be seen. This idea grew. In the dark ages, it was still felt. It later caused the separation of Europe into protestant and Catholic states. Was the cause of the thirty years war and the great French revolution. It inspired the revolution in our country and brought about changes in our government until it is now a democratic republic. Individualism was what moved John Brown, and from considering him a fanatic he is now held to be a martyr. But in all this growth and in all future growth the one idea to be maintained by every individual and that will develop individualism is, the truth. This should be demanded though it is not liked, and by following this up individualism will be evolved that will be of the highest benefit. "Reflex Action of the Exposure." For density of ignorance, for a typical example of illiteracy and a jumble of words the article by W. S; Roberts in last Saturday's World is an acme of art. He was evidently in a rage when he wrote it or he could not have falsified as he did. Such trash and invectives should not be allowed in print. Templin fully demonstrated to the enlightened public that "seance" was a farce as far as Miss Foye was concerned, at least, and evidently the arrow struck home in this mans case. But grin and bear it friend Roberts for you will surely have a few more of your theories exploded if you and your like rub up against our professor. Notice those 10c Canes at Smith's News Depot.

THREE weeks more and the familiar "play ball," will be heard in the Triangular league. ONE end of Kansas building at the world's fair will be devoted to the University exhibit. GARFIELD UNIVERSITY located at Wichita will open on March 28 for a spring term of ten weeks. THE University of Michigan now has the largest enrollmet of any university in the United States, leading Hrvard by over fifty. IN another column appears a communication on a subject that is worthy of much thought and careful consideration by our worthy faculty. The University of Missouri remains at Columbia, so says the legislature. A very liberal appropriation has been made for the new buildings. ___ The political cauldron is beginning to boil in the University. This will be a great year for the young and promising politicians, even in the University. SHOULD the dissatisfied faction of the University of Missouri leave their institution,as they threaten to do, the University of Kansas is open to all comers. DURING vacation a gift of one hundred dollars was received from Mr. T. E. Bowman, which is to be devoted to the library alcove on the statues of women. Mr. Bowman's liberality is greatly appreciated. ONE of the most enjoyable events of college life is a visit from a former beloved professor. Chancellor Canfield made glad the hearts of his old students and drew closer the already tight bonds of friendship. THE COURIER acknowledges the receipt of an invitation to the annual convention and banquet of the Western College Press association which meets in Chicago in April. Owing to press of business the editor of the Courier will be unable to be present. THE University will be honored next week by the general convention of the Pi Beta Phi fraternity which begins Tuesday and lasts until Saturday. The visiting members of the fraternity will be accorded a royal welcome. Mr.JOHN A.RUSH has announced himself as a candidate for the council from the second ward. It is the duty of every student in the University to work for Mr. Rush's election. He is able and well equipped to look after the interests of the University. OUR LAW SCHOOL The "rush" on the chapel starway on St. Patrick's day reminds us that there is connected with the University a law department which is fast becoming a factor of strength and importance in the institution. Between the collegiate and law departments there seems to be growing a spirit of strife and opposition. That this is not as it should be is apparent to all interested. It becomes an interesting question to ascertain why such a feeling should exist. One of the most apparent causes is the fact that the department of law is placed away off by itself in North College. This forms but one of a number of strong reasons why the department should have a new building and that situated upon the University campus. That North College is a suitable building for this department no one can maintain. The situation is not good, the building itself is not adequate. It is neither large enough nor is it arranged properly for the needs of the department. At present neither Music department nor Law School is properly situated. The former can use to advantage the entire North College, and it will be hampered and limited until it is so situated. Given a suitable building for the sole use of the Law Department, with the faculty at present engaged and the influence of the department's active alumni. There is no limit to the usefulness of our School of Law. It will become a source of pride to the institution and state second to no department in the University. --- WHEN we first heard that Prof. Blackmar was to lecture on political economy to the Topeka Trades assembly our sympathy went out to him, for we knew several members who were away up in the science, with a keen sight for sophistries and unsound premises and a dislike for illogical deductions. The result has justified our forebodings—The Jeffersonian. The above is a fair sample of the intelligence of the average Alliance editor. They are ever ready to rail at the so-called "theories" and "sophistries" of the college professor but never have a tangible idea of their own. It is simply ignorance versus knowledge with the usual result. A SPIRITUALISTIC crank in a communication tc the Daily World dubs the party of students, who exposed the rank fraud as practiced by Mrs. Foye, a "mob" and deplores the fact that the tax-payers should support such an institution as the University of Kansas. A few more "mobs" of the same kind would soon cure the community of such fakes, and in doing so would receive the thanks of the same tax-payers. ADVICE to young college journalists seems to bethe latest fad among our exchanges. We are unable to decide whether it is a legitimate disease or a "fill up." WASHBURN and Baker are both having some little facultorial seances, and some of the boys will go home to rusticate. Verily the University is a pattern to other schools in the state. UNIVERSITY LECTURES. To the Editor of the Courier: THE first edition of the wheat pest bulletin has run out and still there is a demand for the valuable little pamphlet. The farmers of the state are awakening to the fact that science can be of great practical benefit to them. It is with a feeling of pride that the friends of the University see the Glee and Banjo club go forth on its first tour of the state. The organization is now in better shape than at any time in its history. It well receive a hearty and deserved welcome on its trip. The University of Kansas is justly proud of its Glee and Banjo club. THE Iowa University papers report that the Kansas State University foot. ball team is in constant practice for the season next fall. Good; get your men at work immediately Iowa, or else you will lose the glory you claim to have won by your whirling wedge and outrageous umpire. Yes sir, our men are in constant practice. A little scrimmage every now and then with the law school keeps them in good form. The inter-state pennant will be ours. Our ball team. Will it win the penant this year? We hope it will but it will have to work. Baker r is reported to have one of the best amateur pitchers in the state and a catcher to match. Washburn has several valuable additions to its team from the "Capital City nine" and is regarded by those who ought to know as a sure winner. K. S. U. has no easy task before her if she retains the pennant. Every available day should be put in good hard practice. The K. S. U. nine will put up one of the best fielding games in the "triangle" and if it gains in batting will surely be in the race from the very start. Here's success to the team. Watch for the pennant. THE University of Kansas is receiving recognition as a leader in athletics. The Kansas City amateur athletic club, which has been lately organized, have secured a good athletic field and have a good equipment of the various athletic implements, and in order to keep in the swim have decided to have an inter-collegiate field day in Kansas City, if the two universities, K. S. U. and M. S. U. can be prevailed upon to meet them in an inter-collegiate field day contest. It is to be hoped that the club will succeed in getting up such a field day in Kansas City and they may be assured that K. S. U. will do all in her power to help the good work along. Look out for a little touch of class spirit on the first of May. Something is very liable to happen. It appears to the writer that every year numbers of students pass out of our University with a much narrower view of a college education than they should have. One man thinks it is all languages and another thinks it is all science. This at least is true, that a course, be it short or long, would be much more valuable if we had a series of lectures on a plan similar to that of the extension course. A student spending one year here and attending such a varied and profitable course as could be presented by the leading departments would have a better general idea of all the subjects included in the very conception of a University that the average senior has under the present regime. Lectures on methods of study, collateral reading, the use of reference books, what and how to read, general college life, etc., would make an excellent foundation and would include many things that each has to learn for himself, often at the cost of much time. A new student does not know these things and he ought to be taught them. After this, advanced courses would enable a student unable to take up every line of work to understand the general outline of what is done in each department. He would be immeasurably broader, he would have a real University education and not simply a knowledge of some special topic. Shall we, as students, all continue to get less from our professor as a body than the University Extension course offers outside? A course of forty lectures could be given each year and those attending be excused from a small amount of work. Surely such a course would be of far more benefit than any term's work and not be much burden for anyone. Let's ask for it. D. The school of law has asserted itself and will henceforth walk about wrapped in a halo of class spirit. When the school was moved over to North College some oracle suggested to the Corrier that it would eventually lead to some hard feelings between the two colleges. The prediction may come true but we hope not. The late little scrimmage was carried out in a most jovial spirit and if the collegiates and the laws recognize that each school is proud of K. S. U, and has a right to be proud of its own particular school there will be no great war and bloodshed. The laws have a right to wear "Green" and have a right to attend lectures in a body if they wish to do so. Green may be an antagonistic color to red but according to some authors it is a complimentary color to red. The laws are not spoiling for a fight nor are the collegiates pervaded by an overwhelming desire to become pugilists. The whole effair is a mere exhibition of class spirit and shows that the school on the hill is what it claims to be, a University.

At last, tired out, and bereft of their colors, (which the students had taken from them in the struggle, however.) a part of the Laws give up. Their hats are given them and the curtain falls.) Law, (singing): SORNE2. (The laws take possession of the University and make Rome howl with their noise,) We are the people from "auld Irish sod," And will fight for our colors green, Then fear you our anger and Irish blood, Lest we mellow your faces and honor our "dean." For we are the people we're cracked up to be. And will will fight till we drain the last drop of our blood; Our ancestors (bold) we'll all emulate And dare you collegiates to stem the great flood.

(The offenders and defenders meet face to face, there is a clash, and the struggle is on. Onward the stragging Laws come with faces flushed (which bespeak their guilt) and arms bared. From the seething and struggling mass, one student is shot upward in the air, he falls within the banasters and rolls down the stairs. Still the struggle continues, and from afar off a voice is heard saying, "Peace, Our Glee Club. The Glee club and Mandolin club will begin their tour the 31st of this month. The boys have been practising faithfully and no doubt will give satisfaction at each entertainment. Both clubs include the best material in the University and some of the members have already gained a local reputation for themselves which bespeaks a great deal when looked at from a students critical standpoint. Rush is business manager, Prof. Penny director and Prof. Saunders has the Mandolin club under his special care. The first entertainment will be given at Topeka and afterwards in the following order: Manhattan, Junction City, Abilene, Salina, MePherson; Peabody, Hutchison and Newton. The club has been well advertised by Manager Rush. The COURIER wishes them success and no doubt if the people appreciate worth they will meet with it. The boys will be gone nine days. Dan Crew will go along as a special artist. Unity Club's Prize Essay.
