Pi Beta Phi Nee L. C. Sorosis
1
This is a week of festivities for Kansas Alpha of Pi Beta Phi being the 25th anniversary of that fraternity as well as the meeting of their national convention. The Pi Beta Phi fraternity, or as it was first called, the I. C. Sorosis, was founded at Monmouth, Ill., in April,1867. Since then it has been very prosperous and has become one of the leading college fraternities in America. At present their chapters number about thirty-five and are in the best institutions of the east and west. Kansas Alpha was given its charter in April,1873 and has kept pace with the rapid progress of the fraternity at large, being now, second to no other chapter. The program of the week is as follows: On Monday an informal reception was held for the visitors and delegates. Tuesday night, initiation; this afternoon, Wednesday, a formal, reception at the home of Miss Tis-ale will be given to the University ladies outside the Pi Beta fraternity; Thursday night, the banquet and effort of the week. Of course the business of the convention will be done at odd moments
Succomed.
Martin Vamburen Rice a fraternity man! Who would have thought it! For the last six years he has been imbued with the most intense hatred against secret societies and at last sees the error of his way and joins the Sigma Xi. What a farce and a satire! Even his mother has used the columns of our city, college and other newspapers to disclose the rottenness of secret societies and now regardless of all this allows her son to become a "frat" man! Vanity! vanity! vanity! Confess Martin, were'ent you and your mother just "foolin'" with the "frats"?

Field Day
No definite arrangements have yet been made for a "field day," but unquestionably one will be held at an early date in May. If the athletic association does not take hold of it, and they should, a committee of students will and can look after it properly, as it should. The Courier is in favor of a "field dap."
Unity Club Prizes.
There is no need of turning to the almanac to see if it's time to have the annual fever. It's here and only Raymond's Bark and Iron will throw off the load. A few doses will make hill climbing much easier.
At the meeting Friday evening a free lunch was indulged in thanks to Prof. Stimpson's lecture which treated of paper, its manufacture and its modern application, one application being the paper oven and to prove its efficiency he cooked a pan of beans.
Science Club.
Some of the books ordered by the Club for prizes have been received. The editors are the very best published, and this is an excellent opportunity to secure books that will always be useful and ornamental in a library. The vacation will afford a good chance to do the literary work necessary to win one of the prizes.
In another column will be found a digest of an article read at the Science club last Friday night by Mr. Morse. The Courier would like also to give a small account of another very interesting paper read by Prof. T.E. Stimpson but space will not permit. While the attendance at the Science club is considerable yet the papers read there are deserving of a larger audience. K. U. has her Seminary and her Moot Senate both of which are doing good work and helping the students but there is as much profit to be gained by attending the Science club which holds its meetings on Friday night and the sooner the students of scientific tendencies investigates this the better. All are invited to attend and once the student goes to one meeting he will unquestionably attend regularly afterward.
Students during the vacation should take the great spring medicine, Grandma's Wonder Tea which gives life, health and vigor to the body and restores the color to the complexion.
About April 1st Olin Bell's spring stock of Mandylins, Guitars and Banjos will be complete. It will be a fine array from which all can make satisfactory selections.

Hypnotism.
Base Ball.
Some of the University professors were experimenting on a few of the boys Saturday afternoon while hypnotised. One fellow was fed asafetida and told that it was peanuts. It liked him well and he asked for more. Another was brought into contact with a fluid resembling H S gas in its smelling qualities and told it was perfume, and he thought upon close scrutiny and a careful investigation that it was a very fine grade. Now boys, why not turn the tables and experiment also? Of course you would not be refused. Did you ever think about that?
From the present outlook it would seem that none but amature games will be played this spring unless the weather becomes such as to allow practice. The manager informs the Courier that there have been over 20 applications made for admittance to the regular nine. K. U. is peculiarly fortunate this year for good material and if the boys can only get out and twirl the ball upon the diamond we will have a better nine then heretofore. This is necessary if we expect to win the pennant. Baker is going to have a better nine this year than last if reports are true and they are practising as much as possible. Washburn also is going to have a good nine and it is whispered that she has got a few recruits from outside the college ranks. Let us play ball if we have to rent the old skating rink.
To Hear Prof. R. C. Jebb
The penult must beours regardless of Wasburn's Topeka ball players or Bakers nine. Play ball.
Prof. Wilcox and wife went east last Friday afternoon to Baltimore to be gone over two weeks. The main object of the professor's visit is to avail himself of the unusual opportunity of listening to a course of eight lectures in Johns Hopkins University at Baltimore on Greek Poetry by Prof. R. C. Jebb of Cambridge University, Eng. This is the second course of lectures on this foundation which has been recently established. Prof. Jebb is a most brilliant writer and careful student of Greek subjects to today and his coming to America is one of the events of the year to students of Greek in this country.
Prof. Witeox shows commendable appreciation of the value of this course of lectures to be willing to travel half across the continent for them. He has made provision for the continuance of the work of his classes during his absence.
Base ball guides will be out at Smith's April 1st.

THE COURIER takes pleasure in extending to the visiting delegates of Pi Beta Phi, the hearty welcome of the University.
THE Pi Beta Phinee I. C.-Convention.
THE fabled story of the Golden Gates must certainly be true as a Colorado chemist has recently discovered gold in a meteorite.
Some of our exchanges are still discussing the wrangle Emporia had at the state oratorical contest. We thought that "battle in a tea-pot" had been settled long ago.
THE senate of the Kansas State University effectually killed the free silver bill last Thursday. The United States congress will, however, probably ratify their action.
VERY soon we will no longer say "one of the leading universities of the west" but "one of the leading universities of the world." Money and western push verily accomplish wonders.
UNIVERSITY people have dropped the "national game of draw" since the "late unpleasantness" and are now playing whist with a zest unparalleled. Truly the poor student must have some recreation.
In another column appears an article on Sugar Manufacture by Irving Morse. Mr. Morse has been for some time engaged as practical chemist in a large Louisiana sugar house and his description of sugar making is highly entertaining and instructive.
THE present editor of the Courier is fully aware of the awful responsibility he assumes with this issue, but he will endeavor to the best of his ability to make the paper worthy of the great institution it represents. He only asks your forbearance.
SENATOR Stanford recently devoted the money he received from the sale of his horse Arion—($125,000.) to assist poor students who desired to go through Lehland Stanford University. With a few such "horses" distributed, the students of that institution would have a veritable "snap."
THE subject of mesmerism is attracting no little attention of late. We are glad to see our University professors investigating it, as it is an extremely interesting subject. However, as there are cases on record where very serious results have followed the exertion of this influence it should only be exercised with the greatest possible caution
MRS. R.J.E. Rice is out again with a seathing article in the Woman's Journal, against Greek letter fraternities. This time her periodical tirade is directed against ladies. The Pi Phi convention probably brought it out. Mrs. Rice is enthusiastic in her denunciations of "these crying evils, but is perfectly harmless,
BOATRACES.
At a recent meeting of the athletic board $100 was voted for the purchase of shells, provided the boating committee would raise another hundred. Although it is a difficult task to obtain money for any purpose at this season of the year, yet the Courier feels assured that there are in school very many students who are enough interested in boating to assist in raising the necessary amount.
Shall we have any more?
The old boats used last year are worn out and unfit for use. They are hardy, suitable for "working boats." New boats have become an absolute necessity or the boating interests in the Unibersity will have to cease. Other branches of athletics have each received material assistance and now boating must be aided or K. S. U. will never have a Varsity boat crew.
In eastern schools the main interest in all spring athletics centers in the boat race and more time and money are devoted to boating than any other branch of athletics. There is material in school for an excellent crew and the river here affords one of the best courses in the west. The Kansas State University, as leader of athletics in the west should have a boat crew. Races could be arranged with Missouri, Iowa, and Nebraska colleges, besides those with Kansas City and other athletic clubs.
We need boats and we must have them. Let the boating committee get to work and at least make an effort to raise the sum required. In any practical plan the committee will have the enthusiastic support of the COURIER.
CHARAKA SAMHITA.
A translation of the oldest Indian medical work in existence has recently been received by Prof. Sayre. The book is known as "Charaka-Samhita" and has just been issued. It is a very valuable work and shows forth a degree of civilization and knowledge of medical arts which modern times can hardly realize then existed. There is much in the book that is interesting, especially as it shows the beliefs of the ancient Hindos.
The following noticable expressions occur: "The union of body, senses, mind and soul is called life." "Of all things, at all times - similarity is the cause of increase and dissimilarity is the cause of decrease. A tendancy exists toward both." Concisely the requirements necessary for the practice of medicine are given: "The sage, Pumarvasu, has indicated that there are four kinds of principle oil, five kinds of salt, eight kinds of milk and six kinds of trees for the correction of maladies." Throughout the first part of the work there is much that is true and applicable to modern times.
For the latest styles call at Miss L. Barbers. She has returned from the east with a complete line of millinery.
ATHLETIC FIELD.
It is with a feeling of relief, even of exultation that the COURIER at length, sees our athletic grounds materialize. After so many years of needless delay and controversy, we have at last secured an athletic field and, work has really begun. Drainage pipers have been laid in the northwest quarter and leveling and rolling will be commenced at once. Owing however, to the inclement weather it is doubtful whether the grounds can be made suitable for base ball practice this spring. But they will undoubtedly be in shape for foot ball work next fall. Now if a gymnasum could be erected on the southeast quarter this spring the COURIER's cup of happiness would be indeed running over.
But not so fast. We should be thankful for small favors received and not clamor after the larger ones. The old addage, "once begun is half done," is still true and from this we take courage and live in the expectation that at no distant day our fondest hopes will be realized.
THE prize oratorical contest takes place the last week in April and it is earnestly hoped there will be a number of entries. A spring contest is as yet an experiment, but the advantage to be gained by those participating are so manifold and self-evident that we feel assuree of its success. Let al students who have any oratorial aspirations what ever write an oration and enter the contest. As yet there is plenty of time to prepare a "masterpiece" and win glory and renown by only a little effort. Exert yourselves and make valuable use of the spring vacation. ___
NOTWITHSTANDING the exceedingly dampening effect the weather has had of late on base ball enthusiasm, every opportunity for practice that has been offered has been taken advantage of by our players. Manager Sterling is determined that K. S. U. shall have a winning team this year and is doing everything in his power to accomplish this end. Let our players keep in good condition and "play ball" whenever possible, for the time will soon come when regular training can be commenced. We have the material this year for an immaculate nine and a little hard work will certainly secure us the pennant.
THE citizens of of Columbia,Mo. recently celebrated the re-establishment of the State University at that place by a banquet to their friends in the legislature. Great enthusiasm was manifest and liberal appropriations for the erection of new buildings were promised. Congratulations, Columbia.
ACCOUNTING to official reports the present junior class is the best class in the University. It is a remarkably large class, and not only leads in scholarship, but is also pushing and energetic. The juniors' latest innovation was a class box party at the Lotus Gloe Club.
AN EARLY FIELD DAY.
The question of an early field day is being discussed. The COURT IER favors an early date for several reasons. In the first place field day should be held when all the students are here, and this will not be possible if delayed until after the spring examinations, for a majority of the students leave immediately after that date. Another very important reason for an early date is that during commencement interest centers upon the exercises on the hill and is not easily diverted. Not near the amount of interest can be aroused over athletic then as can be earlier
The latter part of May has been suggested as a suitable time. The exact date makes but little difference. Only let us have a field day and have it early when all the students can enjoy it. We not only want an exhibition of physical skill but a general good time.
The Kansas City Athletic club are endeavoring to arrange a field day contest in Kansas City between our University and that of Missouri. If they succeed in perfecting their arrangements, as indeed the Courier hopes they can, we should be prepared to compete By holding our field-day exercises early in the spring, our athletes can be selected and trained for the inter-collegiate contest.
THE Kansas State University is fast becoming recognized as one of the leading institutions of learning in the west. This is demonstrated by the fact that three prominent fraternities of the United States hold their general conventions with us this year and next: The general council of Phi Beta Phi is in session here this week while the district council of Phi Delta Theta and Phi Kappa Psi meet in Lawrence in the early part of next year. These fraternities are all strong organizations and only hold their conventions with the leading institutions The University may be justly proud of this recognition of her worth.
OUR Glee and Banjo club leave Wednesday for a ten day's tour of the state. Twelve musicians will accompany the club and will no doubt furnish excellent music. As the chorus has discarded from its repertoire "Black Sheep," "Mary's Lamb" and the "Song that Kills," it is expected the audiences will at least, refrain from throwing any missions at the singers, and will keep their seats during the performance. Here is success to the club. Farewell.
Try the Bottled Peafumery in Woodward's, new and undeteriorated. Woodward's Suchet Powders are the best; each odor smells different as it ought to, which cannot be said of some manufactures.
A good preparation for dandruff and falling of the hair is Woodward's "Germania." People who wish to acquire high foreheads had better not use it.

Sugar Making in Louisiana. The people occupying the sugar belt in Louisiana differ among themselves in many ways. Class lines are closely drawn. First the sugar planter, the owner of the plantation, the managers and overseers who have control of the laboring force; the "eagens" or the descendants of the Arcadians, and finally the "Dagoes?" and Italians, and the negroes, who do all the manual labor on the place. There are few schools; the French language predominates and the Catholic religion has a strong hold on the people.
The plantations are low and slope gently back from the river to the swamps. Ditches from four to ten feet deep are dug in order to drain the fields as soon as possible after the heavy rains. The sugar cane produces no seed and is propagated by planting the cane stalk itself, a shoot starting up at each joint. There are generally three crops harvested in as many years, then the roots are plowed under, the land allowed to rest one year and the process began again. It is a very expensive way of planting $30.00 being the average cost to plant one acre.
The sugar houses are long, low buildings with tall chimneys, located many times in the center of the plantation. There are two kinds, the "Open Kettle" and the "Centrifugal," the former being the old fashion way, the latter the new fashion. In both the cane is carried to the rollers by means of a revolving "feeder" and there crushed. It is then boiled in tanks with steam coils in the bottom until the water is nearly all evaporated and only the sugar and molasses, or "masse cuite" is left. In the "Open Kettle" house this masse cuite is placed in barrels with holes in the bottom and the molasses drained out. In the "Centrifugal house, a wire basket made to revolve very rapidly is used. This new invention has changed sugar making a great deal and in a few years the "Open Kettle" house will disappear.
At the present time each planter owes a sugar house and operates it himself. This is a combination or two distinct branches of industry and each year it is becoming more evident that they must be separated. The feeling among the leading sugar raisers seems to be that the erection of large sugar factories at different points along the Mississippi river where sugar can be made at nearly half the cost will be the solution of the problem. The planter will continue to raise cane but will sell to these central factories.

The Pi Phi Banquet.
A more enjoyable social gathering never assembled in Lawrence than the one that attended the banquet of Pi Beta Phi at the Eldridge house last Thursday evening.
The dining room was handsomely decorated in the fraternity colors and with choice cut flowers. The tables were arranged in the form of a cross and presented a very pretty appearance when surrounded by the guests.
It was 11 o'clock when the guests began to gather around the tables and for three hours a most merry time was had by all assembled. Miss Jennie Sutliff acted as toast mistress and toasts were responded to as follows: "Fraternity—a Magic Word," Miss Turner, of Washington, president of the Pi Phi national fraternity; "Fraternity—a Social Factor," Chancellor F. H. Snow, of the Kansas University; "Our Mutual Friend," Mr. H. E. Copper; "The Rush Line," Mr. Mont Hallowell; "The Corridors," Mr. W. H. Riddle; "The Spirit of Good Fellowship," Mr. W. H. Johnson; "That Mysterious Woman," Mr. Will A. White; "The Wine and Blue," Mr. C. H. Johnson. All the responses were bright and many of them eloquent and it was with a feeling of reluctance that the assembly adjourned.
The felicitous words of Miss Turner, the fraternity's president, will not soon be forgotten by her audience.
The whole affair was one of especial enjoyment and reflects extreme credit upon the capabilities and discriminating taste of the fair hostess and the ladies of the University chapter of Pi Beta Phi.
Poor Seniors!
The seniors may boast of their originality and shrewdness, but they must not try to cope with the juniors in either or else their reputation will soon wane in both. At the entertainment given by the Lotus Glee Club they "conceived an idea" and presumed to humiliate the juniors who were in attendance "en masse" in the boxes. Several attempts were made to steal the colors by means of long wires, but they failed. Other tricks were sorted to and in these the juniors being too shrewd for them, they also failed. Finally as a last resort they lowered their likeness, a picture of that emblematic animal which in scripture is said to have been owned by Balaam, in full view of the vast crowd assembled and much to the amusement of the juniors who could not have wished for better fun.

The Kansas City Blue opened up the base ball season last Sunday afternoon, playing against a picked nine of professionals. Manager Manning says he has a stronger team this year than any time here-tofore.
Irving Morse will go to his home in Emporia tomorrow where he intends to continue his work in chemistry in the laboratory of the Emporia normal. He is also going to work as an assistant during the summer months.
John Sullivan's sister and two children were instantly killed last Friday during the terrible gale which blew at the rate of 84 miles an hour. Mr. Sullivan was a former student of the University, editor and founder of the Courier and is now one of the most staunch friends of K. S. U.
The Courier hopes that the Athletic association will soon furnish it with a list of field day exercises to publish in its columns. Already the program and date for a field day has been decided upon by most other progressive institutions. K. U. should not lag, but keep up with the procession.

The Courier may not have as large a circulation as some college papers but it makes up for this in one way at least. It is read not only in the classic halls of Germany and the Art studios of France but also by admirers on the cold bleak plains of Alaska.
Misses May and Edith Haskell will entertain their friends this evening in honor of Mr. Irving Morse. Of course a most enjoyable time will be had as the Misses Haskells have an enviable reputation as entertainers and their beautiful and spacious home in east Lawrence is just the place to entertain.
Cooley, a former player in the Washburn ball nine, says he is not going to play this year with "a canary nine." Sullivan, Mohler and McVicar also manifest great indifference. Brace up, Washburn.
A great many of the professors and students took advantage of vacation and went hunting. Geese, ducks and snipe suffered unmercifully. Dyche was the crack shot of them all.
The Theta invitations, over seventy-five in number will be sent out the last of next week or the first of the following. At this party the ladies of the respective fraternity expect to introduce a few innuitions and make the affairs quite a la mode. Visiting sisters from other chapters are expected, besides, many others out side of the city.

MOOT SENATE.
Passage of the African Emigration Bill—Pat Egan's Doings Given an Airing.
A Lively Meeting.
In absence of the regular clerk, Senator Springer assumed his duties. The first bill to be discussed was one to appropriate a million dollars to assist African emigration from this country to Liberia. Some claimed it to be unconstitutional and impracticable; others brought forward the merits of the bill and by a majority of one it was carried. Then the resolution for the removal of Pat Egan was given attention and at once the discussion assumed a partisan flavor. Egan's character and his actions during the recent Chilien trouble were given such an airby the democrats as would make him blush were he to hear it. The republicans responded as best they could. The eloquence and evidence made use of by the democratic senators was convincing, but the filibustering of Reed's "followers" won the day and the resolution was tabled. The meeting was of special interest and more partisan speeches were made than at any time heretofore.
PERSONALS.
People Who are Famous and Talked About at K. S. U.
Funston has gone to Alaska.
James spent vacation in Topeka.
Miss Wilder returned Wednesday.
Ringer vacated at home in Paola.
Rice denies having joined a secret society.
Miss Cora Parker, former instructor in the Art department, is expected home soon.
Earnest Hickey has been confined to his bed for nearly two weeks but is now convalescent.
Miss Nellie Morris returned Wednesday from Topeka where she had been spending her vacation.
Burney visited his Phil Delt brethren last week. He is cashier in one of the largest banking institutions in his town but he expects to give this up soon and begin the study of law.
The Convention.
The Pi Phi convention has met and its members disbanded to their respective homes. All had a most enjoyable time and a favorable impression was made, not only by the hospitable treatment of the local chapter but by the generosity manifested by all in making their sojourn pleasant. Come again ladies.
The Glee Club.
The Glee and Banjo clubs are meeting with greater success than any one had anticipated. A crowded house greets them at every entertainment given. According to the press report they are enclosed enthusiastically. A private dispatch from E. C. Fiddle of Abilene, which was published in the journal, says the opera house at that place was so crowded that even standing room couldn't be had. A crowded house also met them at Topeka. The boys will come home Sunday and expect to give an entertainment here on the fifteenth. Let us all go and give a reception which they are well deserving of and show our appreciation of their energetic efforts. Hurrah for our Glee and Banjo club.
Weather Report.
The weather report for March prepared by Chancellor Snow is remarkable for several meterological excesses, chief among which was the largest March rain record in twenty five years. The temperature was below the average. The week of March 14-20 was colder than any corresponding period with the exception of the year 1876. The percentage of humidity has never been exceeded and both wind velocity and percentage of cloudiness were above the average.
Yale's Base Ball Team.
According to reports in the college journals it would seem that of the three leading colleges, Harvard, Princeton and Yale, the latter has the weakest base ball team. Each day as the season approaches the weakness of its nine becomes apparent. The calling away of Al Ferson, of the Wesleyan league, who has been coaching the nine, leaves them without a regular coach. Sixteen men now comprise the team, the final make up of which will not be determined until after the first few games. The season was opened Tuesday by them with the Boston leagues; three games are going to be played between the two teams, the last one at Boston.
Our Ball Nine.
The following students were measured for their base ball uniforms: Alden, Crawford, Dobson, Hogg, Helsey, Kinsey, Pitt, Sherman, Smith, Simmons, Winsor and Leurance. The color of their suits will be crimson, K. U. will surely have a winning team this season judging from the above names.

Yes, crimson is our color and the COURIER is glad that the Kansas State University has at last an emblem worthy of her greatness.
The senior class are contemplating a burlesque of Julius Caesar. If this class gives a play, the fact that it will be a burlesque is assured.
As spring opens the demand for more suitable racing boats becomes imperative. The Courier sincerely hopes the boating interest will receive some material assistance this pring.
THE Review for March came out this week in an entirely new dress and contains a number of fairly interesting articles. The scissors, however, materially assisted in "filling up" this issue.
"CONTAGEOUS Diseases of the Chinch Bug" is the title of a very valuable book by Chancellor F. H, Snow, that is about to be issued from the state press. Lack of space forbids an extended notice of it this week.
Now that "dealing in futures" has been so strictly forbidden we can predict the success of our base ball club without fearing to give any one of a speculative turn of mind, a "tip" on the race for the pennant.
Iowa State University is bemoaning the exceedingly small appropriation it received this year from the legislature. Verily the state universities of the west will never become great institutions until they cease to rely for their running expenses upon the whims of state legislatures.
The Washburn faculty have refused to allow the students of that institution to issue another college paper. This seems manifestly unjust and without the province of the faculty. However the Washburn faculty have been known to interfere in students affairs merely to show ostensive authority.
With characteristic swiftness the Baker Index suggests the names of F. C. Lockwood and R.D.Brown as suitable candidates for the presidency of the Inter-State Oratorical association. The "slate" will however, undoubtedly gc through and according to that schedule neither Baker nor Kansas State University get the oratorical plumbs.
THE students of the University of Missouri have asked the citizens of Columbia and the curators that the donations of $50,000 be used for the erection of a combined military and gymnasium building, as a fitting memorial of the fire. This certainly would be appropriate but it is doubtful if their wish will be granted.
MONEY OR MEDALS.
Now that we have fully determined to have a Field-day, a question comes up that we think has never been considered before. Shall we have money prizes or medals? By all means the latter. Heretofore in our field-day exercises it has been the custom to give cash prizes, but this practice should be discontinued for very important reasons.
In the first place a consideration which has probably never occurred to the association; is that a money prize makes the winner a professional and thus bars him from any further amateur contests. Most of our amateur athletes would be glad to sacrifice many honors which they might win in order to avoid the title of professional.
Another very important reason for medal or cup prizes is that they are permanent reminders of the exciting contest of college days. Students do not take part in athletic contests for the money they may win. Some higher motive impells them than mere gain. To a conscientious student how much more preferable would it be to receive a medal appropriately inscribed than a prize in money. Money would tend to degrade while a medal would elevate the tone of our athletic contests. The one would imply a greed for the "almighty dollar" while the other, as on everlasting emblem of beauty and value, would only be an incentive to the exertion of the best faculties.
By offering a money prize we would not be advancing the cause of athletics but rather binding it. Let us do all in our power to make the coming field day exercises a success and offer prizes or medals, not money.
least have the privilege of electing their delegates. There has been no mass meeting of the students for that purpose that we know of. Will some one kindly explain?
"UNIVERSITY Extension" for March contains an article by Prof. F.W. Blackmar on "University Extension in the Southwest." The paper reviews the work of the classes at Topeka and Kansas City. So far the attendance and the general interest awakened in higher education is very flattering indeed. Although the state university of Missouri has taken some part in this movement yet our own institution has been the principal laborer in the field and to her must go the credit. The work is still going on and will continue to progress until in the enlightened west, at least, the University will be brought to all those who cannot go to it.
In a recent issue of the Courier dated March 25th appeared an account of the meeting and organization of the University Lecture Bureau. The article was handed to our local man, but it is so indefinite that but little information is given on the subject. In justice to the student body the Courier would like to know who and what this lecture bureau is, and when the members were chosen and who did the choosing? If the students are to be represented they should at
The largest library in the United States is that of Chicago university, containing 325,000 vols. At present Kansas State University would be proud of a library one-fifth that large.
But one of the many indications of the westward movement in educational matters, is the removal of Prof. Richard T. Ely, the prominent writer on economics, from Johns Hopkins to the state university of Wisconsin.
LACK of space prevents us publishing in this issue a very interesting letter from the manager of the Glee club, Mr.John A. Rush. However he reports a splendid time and a most successful trip. At present our Glee and Banjo club are "out of sight."
THAT the literary society is becoming a "thing of the past"is again illustrated by the dissolution of one of the leading societies at Baker. If literary societies cannot flourish in the somnific atmosphere of Baldwin, the outside world is certainly too swift for them.
THE idea suggested by the Courier some time ago of organizing a state college press association is being favorably commented upon by some of our exchanges. The benefits to be gained by such an association are obvious. The only thing that seems to be needed to make it a success is a little nerve and push. Let some one take the initiative in this movement and success will undoubtedly crown his efforts.
The time of the year is fast approaching when the verdent freshman winds his tender way over the hills in seach of botany specimens, and the wiley soph plays ball and the——; when the love-sick junior goes boating and sings his nightly serenades; and when the pompus senior buys a new spring hat and writes poetry. Verily there is an individuality and the seasons affect us all differently.
Our Glee and Banjo club is expected home tomorrow. Although as yet we have received no official notice of the success of the trip, however, from "divers and sundry" sources we have learned that the club made a great hit wherever it fulfilled an engagement, and what is more the trip was a great success financially. 'Great credit is due Prof. Penny and Mr. Saunders for their uniting efforts in training the club, and also to Mr. Rush, for the success of the trip is in no small measure due to his sagacious business ability and skillful management. Thanks to these gentlemen, also to the "rank and file," we at last have a splendid musical organization. The Kansas State University is justly proud of its Glee and Banjo Club.
CRIMSON IS THE UNIVERSITY COLOR.
When and how it was adopted no one knows. It is simply a fact that the incipid yellow and blue have been supplanted by the bolder crimson and no one proposes to mourn. Though the students could not adopt the color yet time has firmly est- lished it and "henceforth and for evermore" crimson will be the auspicious omen of the Kansas State University.
Time works marvelous changes and for once at least we are glad of it. Most fortunate is it that the change came as early as it did, before the sky blue and corn-yellow became firmly fastened upon us. For more than a year we have been wearing the crimson on all of our excursions and it is this glorious color that has decked our triumphs. It has been the crimson that has urged us on to victory in the past year and which has never yet been dragged in the dust of defeat.
You may talk of the old colors being so dear to the heart of every alumnus and endeavor to appeal to our sentiments. But it is safe to say that but few of the alumni really know what our colors were, and but very few, even if they do, who would not be glad to learn of the change. Very little sentiment could be aroused by the luke warm colors, yellow and blue. There is no "heat" in them.
Moreover it is only recently that the University has been in need of a color or emblems. Only within the past few years is it that she has been a leader in athletics. Our victories of the the past year seem marvelous and in the contests yet to come we cannot but feel that the crimson will continue to urge us on to victory.
AS OTHERS SEE US.
A correspondent to an eastern paper has the following comment on western institutions. "It has been my privilege during the past few years to visit the state universities of Kansas, Nebraska, Minnesota and South Dakota. While these institutions, of course, cannot rival the older colleges in numbers of students and professors; or in educational appliances, I have been charmed by a grace and simplicity, an open-hearted courtesy, a mingled frankness and refinement, a mental receptivity and moral aspiration everywhere manifest ed. There was a glow, a spontaneity, a hopefulness which one never finds to the same extent in institutions of men alone or of women alone, however admirable otherwise. The atmosphere was indicative of a higher plane of social civilization. The primary object of a University education is to make thinkers and workers—to fit men and women for leaders in beneficient thought and action. In these results the University of the west and the newer colleges of the east will now take the lead."

THE TALE OF WOE.
As Depictated by Mrs. Rize in the Woman's Journal on "Frats" in K. U.;A Maidend's Tears: Saturday Night's Car- ousing.
"I call to mind the case of a young girl who boarded one year dear me before I knew anything of these organizations. She was a bright student, ambitions and expected to go on and graduate. She was taken into these societies. As a result, she had no time to herself. It soon became impossible to prepare a lesson properly and she deigned the fact in tears and regrets to those about her. Her statement was to the effect that the "frats" were not allowed to pay any attention to other girls, and as so few girls belonged to the societies, she was obliged to be so much at their seck and call as to use up all her time. She left, never to return, her hopes and herself a sacrifice to the inexcusable folly of harboring these societies here. * * * * A University student," some years ago, * * * * "lodged for several weeks in a room on Massachusetts street. The next two rooms were occupied as lodge rooms for these secret societies, one of the boys and one of the girls. Saturday evening when these societies held their meetings he said that the boys and girls would enter their own rooms respectively, but soon the doors between them would be thrown open; and from that time till after midnight the noise and carousing was so great as to prevent sleep in the neighborhood * * * * some of the faculty belong to these societies." Yes, and that includes your own son. If the above are your honest convictions why did you permit him to join one of them? The unfairness of the above quotation from Mrs. R.'s article speaks for itself. She would have her readers believe that the "one young lady" of whom she speaks is a good example of the general tendencies of all the lady "frats" when every one knows better. As to the immoral actions imputed in "the noise and carousing until after midnight" and etc it is simply a slur upon a great many members of the faculty and some of the most promident men in the state who were active members during the times she speaks of. In fact the whole tenor of the article defames the fair name of K.S.U. Fer shame that such an article should appear in the "Wonan's Journal!" But we will reftain from a deserving criticism, knowing that the article itself will bring rebake upon its author when read by fair minded student or any one else.

MUSIC BY TELEPHONE
"Looking Backwards" Made a Reality by Prof. Blake.
Some very important experiments have been performed of late by Prof. Blake, one being the transmission of music through a long distance telephone between St. Joe and around by Atchison, Leavenworth, Topeka and Lawrence. The music can be heard plainly at that distance. While performing this experiment a few days ago, the telephone wires leading to the University and Mr. Woodward's became crossed and although Mr. Woodward's telephone was not connected with the main line the music was heard all over the room. This was indeed a very peculiar phenomenon and helped the profes-or to convince some of the Kansas City electricians of a theory on the transmission of sound through the Bell Telephone which he had explained to them quite differently from the common text books viz: "page effect" and not the vibration of the diaphragm as commonly held. As soon as the Woodward affair was reported, Blake telephoned down to Kansas City and told one of the leading electricians to attach the wires of the telephone to a box-relay and place it to his ear. This was done and music, played here in Lawrence, was heard by the man in Kansas City who held the box relay to his ear. There are over sixty practical electricians in attendance at the Professor's lectures and they come from Sedalia, Fort Scott, St. Joe, and all around. The Missouri and Kansas Telephone Co. apparatus as well as any of their employees are at Blake's disposal. The professor has again received his regular spring call from other colleges this time from California and at a salary, of $2,500. Of course he will stay at K. U., at leas,tthe Courier hopes so.

Williston and His Work.
Prof. Williston will make a tour of the state soon in search of different kinds of building material for the exhibit in the mineral department at the Columbian exposition. The professor obtained about fifty different kinds of specimens last year during his summer tour and expects to add about three hundred more to the list between now and the first of September. These specimens are examined and got up in nice shape, being put through a chemical and mycroscopical process and then pressed into brick about six inches square. Kansas is very fortunate in having so able a man as Prof. Williston to look after this affair and no doubt every kind of building material in Kansas will be seen at the world's exposition.

Will the Athietic Grounds be Ready for that Day?
K. U. To Have a Field Day on the 21st of May.
ROCK CHALK.
At last the COURIER is able to announce authentically that a field day will be held in May. While an earlier date was advocated yet the one decided upon by the executive committee of the Athletic association meets with universal approval. For over a month they have been endeavoring to arrange for an inter-collegiate contest between Baker, Washburn and K. U. but failing in this they have decided to go it alone and the excellent program printed by the COURIER this week is the result of their efforts. Those who are eligible to take part in this day of sport are they whom the definition of amateurs does not exclude. The next question which now arises is, shall the McCook field be ready by the 21st of May? The work is being pushed rapidly but there is a great deal to do, and although the grounds will probably be graded the first of May it is a question whether or not the grand stands and fence will be built in time.
Already the large ravine running through the field has been filled and the grounds are beginning to have the appearance of real athletic grounds. In places the grade is as much six feet in depth. K. U. can well be proud of her athletic field. It is an honor to the University and to the state that supports her that we can boast of s.ch grounds, and the COURIER lives in hope that the grounds will be ready by the 21st of May to receive a fitting initiation.
In another column may be found the program of the day's exercises and the definition of at amateur.

It Cost 800 Dollars.
Not long ago the Natural History department received an instrument of which it may well be proud of, viz: a micro-photographicstrument. It is indeed a beautiful one and measures ten feet in length. One lense alone, cost $130. A photograph of the cross section of a minute plant, taken by lamp light, showed distinctly every part of the section of the plant. Since receiving the instrument Prof. Stevens' pride has grown abnormally. In fact he feels so good that the most of his spare time is used up taking pictures, both profile and front view, of parasite, and cryptogams.
The Coming Contest.
The spring contest to be held on the evening of the last Friday in April promises to be a very interesting one. Already three of the most able young men in school have signified their attention to enter and of course there are others who will also hand in orations to the executive committee, but who desire to keep "mum" on the subject The Courier is glad to see this enthusiasm manifested. The spring contest as yet is an experiment, and the oratorical association deserves much praise for its energetic efforts to make the contest a success. All that is necessary is a good rousing and successful contest on the 29th of this month to firmly establish "spring contests" in the future and the present outlook bids fair to do this.
The Juniors.
Last Friday at 1 o'clock the juniors held a meeting to elect a member of the class to respond to the toast at the senior banquet On the second ballot Miss Nellit Morse was chosen, receiving five more votes than her opponent, Mr. Holmes. The juniors could not have made a better choice. Ever since this class organized it has manifested a very liberal spirit towards electing lady members to fill all important offices. Two years ago Miss Helen Simpson was chosen president and at the present time Miss Bowman holds the same office. This generosity on the part of juniors bespeaks a great deal and no doubt in the great future when each class will have become as enlightened and liberal in their views, none but women will be elected to office. This reform, however, must be attributed to the class of '93, the largest, brightest and most progressive class which will graduate in the next four years.

On last Tuesday and Wednesday the regents held their regular meeting and after reorganizing, Charley Scott being elected secretary, the following business was transacted. Prof. Hopkins was made associate professor with an increased salary. Provisions were made for an assistant in English, Physiesand Laboratory assistant, Botany, Chemistry and Entomology. Prof. Dyche received a good sum to carry on his display at the world's fair. The C.E. department came in for it share of the proceeds; also; $1,500 dollars being appropriated to purchase machinery for the testing of cement, rocks, etc. The fourth story of Snow Hall will now be finished, as a good sum was provided for that purpose.

MANY people have not yet realized that the institution of learning located in the "historic city" is not the "Lawrence college" but the Kansas State University.
We are informed by the compiler of "Leading Thoughts by Leading Men" that some of the leading men were unintentionally omitted and that an additional list will be given later in the year.
As no explanation has been offered concerning the lecture bureau the COURIER concludes there is no such organization. It would be in order for the students to assemble and form such an association.
WOULD it not be possible to have an Inter-collegiate Field Meet in ad dition to tee triangular base ball and foot ball league? It is suggested that our worthy athletic board consider some such proposition.
THE Kansas Wesleyan University at Salina is gradually developing. At present it is free from debt and has an endowment fund of nearly $10,000, raised at the late northwest conference of the Methodist church , besides an incidental fund of $12,000.
THE Lawrence Record in a recent issue quotes the Courier's category of "Leading Thoughts by Leading Men" and attributes "The ethics of self-consciousness or how I became famous" to the congressional aspirant, Dick Blue. This is a great injustice to a University celebrity.
As the season advances the usual number of jokes on spring poetry appear. While these do not violate any moral law in themselves, yet they certainly cause the man who reads them to break at least one of the commandments in endeavour to give vent to his injured feelings. The spring poet is not so bad as the spring humorist.
The vast number of special students of late in the universities of the west indicates one of two things. Either these institutions are turning out a great many semi educated men, or they are simply expanding and thus realizing the true aim of a University, where each man pursues his own special line of work. With the Kansas State University at least, it is hoped the latter supposition is correct.
The following valuation of the University is going therounds of the StatePress:"The faculty of the Kansas University at present numbers forty-four instructors. The estimated value of the entire material equipment of the University is $619,000, $358,000 in buildings and $261,000 in department apparatus, including the general library of 16,217 volumes. The natural history cabinet contains 150,000 specimens of botany, history and zoology." This is certainly a very flattering showing considering the age of our institution.
It was Mr. E. C. Little, of Abilene, not as the type had it, Mr Fiddle, who so kindly wired us the success of our Glee Club's performance at that place. Such interest as this shown by our alumni is most assuredly appreciated by the University.
The recent Oxford-Cambridge boat race impresses upon us the need of more suitable boats. Where is our boating committee? If any boat races are held this spring, the exponents of the boating interest in the University will have to accelerate their movements.
GOVERNOR Chas. Robinson's history of "The Kansas Conflict" has just been issued from the publishing house of Harper and Brothers. To all Kansans and students of history generally, the book is most interesting and valuable. It is additionally so, as the story of the early Free State struggle is told by one who helped to make that history. The book will be a valuable addition to the University library.
As the leading institution of learning in the state, the University should head the list of schools contributing to the Kansas Educational fund for the World's Fair. Tonight the Glee Club will give a concert, the proceeds of which are to be devoted to a University fund. Every one should attend the concert, for by so doing they will not only enjoy a splendid entertainment, but will at the same time assit in swelling the University's subscription.
The recent tour of our Glee and Banjo club has been a great success in every way. The trip not only succeeded financially but was a splendid advertisement for the Kansas State University. Wherever the club filled an engagement, it most favoribly impressed its audiences and received from them the highest praises. By this tour the club has won great honor for itself and reflected not a little credit upon the University.
PLAGIARISM or "mental cerebration," is not decreasing, but is rather becoming a science. Recently there has come under our observation circulars of a certain "bureau" which offers to write bogus compositions for school children and to furnish ready-made themes, forensics and orations for college students. A short time ago. Some of these purchased productions were discovered among the papers presented in our own institution. If students have not enough independence and self respect to rely upon their own abilities, the instructors would do well to expose their nefarious practices. Although as yet this evil exists to a very slight extent in the University, the principle is the same and here most clearly is demonstrated the workings of this palpable fraud, The whole business is exceedingly rank and deserves legal punishment.
Why nos take a boat ride? Dolly Graeber will furnish you a boat.
LECTURE COURSE.
It is gratifying to note that the management of the lecture course is able to announce Dr. Gunsaulus as the next attraction. Dr. Gunsaulus was advertised through the misrepresentation of a certain Lecture Bureau and it was only by additional expense that he was induced to appear on our course.
The spirit of opposition and antagonism that some narrow-minded individuals have sought to ferment between the student body and the present management is unfortunate and unwarranted. The students worked hard to sell tickets and se cure a permanent fund for a course next year. The board of managers have acted fairly and impartially in fulfilling their part of the contract. The one vacancy that occurred was substituted by the best available attraction and the "draw backs" were not numerous enough to materially decrease the permanent lecture course fund. Prof. Templin has done more than any other man to bring the lecture course to its present felicitous arrangement, and has prevented clashing and allayed any dissatisfaction that tended to arise, by placing himself between the upper and neither mill-stone.
Next year the board will be in the complete control of the student body and it is hoped that everything will run smoothly.
OUR PROFESSORS.
Within the past few weeks four of our professors have had very flattering offers from other institutions, but very fortunately for the University of Kansas they have all declined to accept them.
A short time ago Prof. Blake received the offer of a very desirable professorship from one of California's leading institutions. But as the proffered chair was not nearly so advantageous as the offer last year from his Alma Mater, Amherst College, it is expected his loyalty to the State University will keep him here with us.
Prof. Hopkins has had two very flattering situations offered him, one in Nebraska, and the other from a strong Baptist college in Ohio, but he has finally, after due deliberation, concluded not to accept either of them, although they are more remunerative than his present position. At the recent meeting of the board of Regents, the Professor was made an associate professor in the chair of English and an assistant was provided for that department.
Prof. Adams, although an entirely new man, has been recognized as an instructor of no ordinary merit, and has also been proffered a good position by a Nebraska college, but he has been persuaded to remain here.
Prof. Dyche has also been solicited to leave his present situation for a more lucrative position, but his loyalty to the University and his interest in estab lishing in Kansas, the greatest
and the best museum in the world has deterred him. A very liberal appropriation was voted him by the regents, to carry on his world's fair project, and it is safe to say that at the Columbian exposition the Kansas State University will eclipse all other institutions.
Although hampered as usual by scantiness of funds,the regents have done nobly. The salaries of all the regular professors have been raised and that of the chancellor at last placed on a par with the other western institutions. While our professors even now are salaried far below their deserts, yet the recent advance was a move in the right direction and may lead us to hope for better things to come.
The constant demand for the professors of the Kansas State University, although it indicates the growing strength of our institution, is at the same time a source of great annoyance and keeps matters unsettled. At present however we should congratulate ourselves that we are able to retain our professors, and should be thankful that "it is as well with us as it is."
Mrs. Gardner's Millinery Opening.

Chemistry Notes.
The department of chemistry has purchased a milk tester. This machine is of the pattern used in creameries, and enables the operator to determine accurately the amount of butter fat in the milk. It is much more accurate than the common method of testing by the lactrometer.
Mrs. Savage is doing a rustling trade this week in spite of bad weather. As the goods are sold out new ones are being received and she has something now to offer every day. Her line of Easter Millinery goods is especially fine and the young ladies of the University are especially invited to examine it.

The Kansas Moot Senate to Elect a President.
The principal question discussed by the Moot Senate last Tuesday evening was the election of a president. Senator Copper introduced a bill providing for the election of a president, by the senate on the 19 of April, whose office shall expire on the close of the school year. An amendment being offered which, it carried would have given the whole student body an opportunity to participate in this election, elicited much discussion. Some of the senators maintained that the senate had no right to usurp the power of the states. It is the sacred right of the people, the students and the senators to wield this power. But on the other hand said the opponents of the amendment, all students are not interested since membership in the senate is denied to many of them. On motion, the amendment was lost and another introduced provicing that the constitution be so altered as to read that the senate shall have the power to elect a president, and the presiding officer shall be the man elected. This was opposed by a majority who insisted that said officer, for the welfare of all concerned, should not hold the office of president and vice president at the same time. The motion was then carried as first read. So next Tuesday night a president will be elected who will be invested with the same power as the president of the United States. The form of nomination will be gone through with as provided in the bill. Two candidates are to be selected one of which will be elected by the senate.

WELL EARNED LAURELS
The Glee and Banjo Club Returns From a Most Successful Tour.
The first annual tour of the University Glee and Banjo club, consisting of twenty-two men, has been made through nine of the principal cities of the state and the success achieved exceeded even the most sanguine expectations. When the boys returned Sunday morning from their ten days' tour their purses were heavier than when they started out and each member was loaded down with reminescences of the "greatest trip ever made." In other words the first annual tour was a musical, social and financial success.
In the very first concert, at Topeka, the boys were surprised at what could do, and from that time had that confidence in themselves that insures success. And when at Manhattan Chancellor Snow expressed himself as being much pleased with the concert the club felt more than repaid for its labors. In each city visited only words of praise were heard and urgent requests were made for a return date on the next tour with promises of even larger houses, which is saying a good deal when it is remembered that 600 people crowded the Abilene opera house and nearly as many at Newton, while large audiences in the other cities visited greeted the boys with enthusiastic applause.
Pat Graham makes soles and mends holes. Take your old shoes to him to be doctored.
Perhaps the most enjoyable features of the tour were the receptions given the boys after each concert by the young ladies and gentlemen of the visited cities. Noticeably among these was the one at Mrs. Blakeley's in Junction City, the ones at Abilene, Salina and McPherson, and the one by the Young Bachelors' Club at Newton. In each city the boys found no difficulty in persuading themselves that the girls were much prettier than those just left, and flirtations desperate and deep were indulged in that would perhaps bring pain to many a University girl's heart did she but know all. Junction City will probably be longest remembered by two of our dashing young guitarists, while McPherson has pleasant memories for these same two and for "our Orator" also. One of the first tenors lost his heart in Abilene, and "our Bob" wants Peabody revisited next year.
But no place will be longer remembered than Fort Riley, where the boys were so royally treated by the famous 7th Cavalry, from Gen. Forsythe down. A delightful day in and around the elegant new barracks, the mess room, the drill hall, the "Club" and the officers quarters, will not soon be forfotten, and the generous invitation of General Forsythe to renew acquaintances next year was received with three cheers. J.A.R.
Prof. Snow's Chinch-bug Report
The first annual report of Chancellor Snow as director of the University Experiment station, popularly called the "chinch-bug station," is now in the hands of the state printer. One hundred and thirty-two pages have been run off already, and there will be a hundred more in the book. The edition will be fifteen thousand and the publishing is done by the state, under authority of the state printer. The book will be issued in about two weeks, and will be sent to Kansas farmers and to entomologists all over the country.
The report contains a resume of the experimental work of 1889 and 1890, being the introduction to its main feature, which is an exhaustive account of the experiments of 1891. In connection with the 1891 report, over four hundred and fifty letters from farmers who experimented with infected material are printed. There is also a complete list of all the field experimenters who made reports. There are exactly fourteen hundred names in this list. A summary account of the field results shows that 76 per cent of the field experiments were successful, 13 per cent unsuccessful, and 11 per cent doubtful. The correspondents who reported successful results were asked to estimate the amount of crops saved for each one by the experiment. The summing up of the estimates from 482 correspondents shows that $50,655.68 worth of corn, $15,377.50 worth of wheat, and $21,211.00 worth of other crops were saved to the farmers of the state during 1891 by the use of infection sent out from the laboratory. I each successful experimenter saved crops to the average amount of each of the 482 reporting, the total saving must have been almost $200,000.
A chapter entitled, "Meteorological Conditions on the Chinch Bug" is given to the discussion of the influence of Kansas weather conditions during the last ten years on the occurrences of the chinch bug in the state during the same time.
A carefully compiled history of the microphytous diseases of the chinch bug in the United States occupies several pages. A full account is given in this chapter of the work of the various experimenting entomologists who have paid any attention whatever to the contagious diseases of the chinch bug.
There is added an appendix, a detail in statement of the expenditure of the funds appropriated by the state for carrying on of the work of the Station.
The report has required a great deal of work in its getting up, and will be received with interest not only by the farmers of the state, but by American entomologists, as a valuabje scientific contribution to a subject of much practical value.

OUR NINE.
The base ball season has at last opened and regular practice has commenced. Last Saturday's game clearly demonstrated the fact that we have a number of new men in school this year who can certainly "play ball." Indeed there is more and better material for a winning nine this year than ever before. True some of the men are as yet a little "green" but systematic practice will soon put them in shape. As Manager Sterling is determined that our club shall not be defeated for want of that, we may expect a splendid nine this year.
Proficiency alone is to determine the players. No man can think he has a "sinch" on his place in the nine, for only the men who can play ball are going to be allowed on the diamond this year. This time the manager means business and if hard conscientious practice will win, the Kannsas State University is to have the Tri-Angular League pinnant.

The Misses Haskell Reception.
Those who were so fortunate to be present at the reception last Friday evening given by the Misses Haskell in honor of Mr. Irving Morse enjoyed a most pleasant time. The evening was a beautiful one and added much to the merriment of all present. At 8 o'clock the guests began to arrive; and by 9 a merry crowd of young people were laughing the hours away in social conversation. Refreshments having been served, cards with the numerals from one to twenty-four written upon them were distributed around. Of course this caused some speculation, which, however was soon explained when the names of twenty-four well known and popular novels were read for each one to write down the names of their respective authors. Miss Simpson won first prize, guessing twenty of the twenty-four and Miss Laura O'Bryon, second.
The rest of the evening was passed in dancing and at 12 o'clock the party broke up. Those present were:
Misses Chapman, Wilder, Mason,
Blaker, Scott, Humphrey, Delia

The joke is going its round that Chapman and Potter went buggy riding Sunday and while out—well the horse stopped very suddenly and you can imagine the rest.
Recently a young man from Kansas visited Kansas City, and hearing the noise of a cable, he sought to find its source. Seeing the crack in which the cable runs, he put his ear down to listen and finding this was the source, he exclaimed—By George, that's a hornets' nest!

O'Leary and Barnes seem to be the general favorites of a great many students in the coming contest. One more week will decide. Mr. Wm. Ford a former student, has been attending Cornell, and graduates from there this year. He has been appointed class orator, and now has been elected prize debator.

Prof. Templin has asked the students to tell him of any superstitions which exist among the people in that part of the state from whence they come. The profesor intends to make a compilation of all the superstitious in the state of Kansas.
Perhaps it would be of interest to Blaker and Challiss to know that J W. Ady, United States district attorney, and at whose home they were so hospitably entertained during the recent tour of the Banjo Club, will deliver an address at the Washburn College next Commencement week.
"My friend, Mr. Bryan, of Nebraska," is in trouble. He prophesied that Nebraska would want a western man, and it went solid for Cleveland.

NAMES OF NOTABLES
Now Immortal by Cognizance in the Columns of the Courier.
Frank Bowker sports a new "frat" pin.
Miss Schopman spent Sunday with her friends in Lawrence.
Howard Pears is president of the local circle of the Economic Society.
Bion S, Hutchins, a former student and graduate of K, U., was in town Sunday.

Misses Mason and Sands are going to Topeka this afternoon to spend a few days.
Bonebrake and Alden went boating the other evening and entertained their company with Mandolin and guitar music.
Next Friday Evening.
The seniors,after due deliberation have finally resolved to emulate the immortal Shakespeare by placing Julus Caesar on the stage. Those who intend to "do heavies" are reducing their habit a la Roman, (that is going without their galluses) and are subjecting themselves to violent training in order to acquire the phisique becoming a noble Roman. The burlesque is to take the place of regular class day exercises and the 4th of June is the date set for this bisplay of histrionic talent.
In last week's issue of the COURIER it was stated that three orators had already signified their intention of entering the spring contest. Since then others have made known, privately, similar intentions which practically assures a full program and a successful contest. It is the opinion of the COURIER that fully as good if not better orations, on the average will be delivered, then were orated from the rostrum last January. The executive committee authorizes the COURIER to announce the program of the evening which will consist of an invocation followed by the delivery of orations,and music at proper intervals.The best of music shall be furnished. Reserved seats on sale at Leis' Drug store on Wednesday morning next. Admission 25 cents.

The Senior Nine.
Those most noble and dignified seniors are bound to achieve notoriety. Their latest freak, excepting of course that farce which they are to present and which will surely prove to be a farce, is the organization of an unparalleled nine of star base ball players. The famous ones who will participate in knocking the whiskers off the moen with sky scrapers, to the infinite disgust of our honored faculty, are as follows: Sawtell, champ ion light weight of the class, c and 1st b; Hadley, his swiftness, p and 1 st b; Simmons, Green Per, Capt c, and p; Truitt, microscopie, s s; Potter, dead game sport, 2nd b; Barnes, airy, fairy buzzing flies, c f; Barnes, red hot slugger, b b; Brown, windy whiskers, l f; Challis, jovial joker, r f; Engel, Johnson, et al libitum substitutes; water carriers; Dyche, Prof. Miller, bat rustler; Caldwell, the beacon light.
The great game of the season will occur in the near future, after which the seniors will lapse into oblivion. All juniors are requested to be present and aid in the affair.
Science Club.
A very interesting program will be given this evening at the meeting of the Science Club in the chemistry building at 8 o'clock. All are invited to attend whether they belong to the society or not, and especially the students who anticipate making science their chief study. No admittance is charged. The knowledge which you will gain and that is considerable is given gratis. The program for this evening is as follows:
The Genus—E.C. Case.
Making Glycerin Mounts; C. S.
McClung.
The Univeasity Question, O. P Davis.
Science Notes, G. II. Playter.
Historical Seminary.
The seminary will hold a very unique and interesting meeting this p.m. at 4 o'clock. None but ladies will read papers, which are on the following subjects:
Political Disabilities of Women. Professional Rights of Women. Women in Industrial Pursuits.
A musical-dramatic camping out party is being talked of for next summer. The scheme in its present embryonic form is to organize a musical-dramatic company among the students, to play their way to Denver and then go up the mountains and spend the summer. In the fall they intend to "play" their way back to Lawrence. The originators of the plan say it is a sure go.

ONWARD!
All we prize is but delusion!
All we cherish flies away,
Eads in ruin and confusion,
As the night o'er takes the day!
Why is all this toil and trouble,
All this racking of the brain?
All we gain is but a bubble,
Brightest gems are dull and vain!
Roses cannot bloom forever;
not why not gather them today?
Calm and sum-lit spreads the river;
Hoist your sails and speed away.
Calm and sun-lit spreads
Hoist your sails and speed away.
Ev'ry moment, as it passes,
Brings us nearer to the grave;
All the busy, toiling masses
Soon will cross the Sylgan wave.
True, the only real treasure,
We can hoard up here below.
Is the moment's guiltless pleasures
Which we gather as we go;
But the only real pleasure,
That will never sate or clay.
And whose full and brimming measure
Man is able to enjoy.
Is pursuit and not possession,
Is the rapture and delight
Of the soul that finds expression
Of its vast creative might.
About Field Day.
"Some of the athletes are going to be fooled a "trip" said a member of the program committee," if they think that they can enter for all the contests and then choose the most desirable ones. Continuing farther the speaker said in substance that no one will be allowed to continue farther with the individual contests who has refused to take part in any one which his name is down for. So boys beware. The rules must be observed and don't put your name down for the 100 yard race or any other race unless you intend to take part, for just as soon as you fail to do what you have signified, your name will be dropped. It is probable that medals will be offered as prizes. Of course not gold ones of any great size but very appropriate, however. The coming field day will be a good time for all our "unknown" splinters, jumpers, to show their metal and the medals which are to be offered by the program committee will unquestionably have a good effect in bringing them to the front.
The young ladies of the Kappa Kappa Gamma fraternity will give their annual spring party on the evening of the third of June. Mrs. Bowersock has kindly offered the use of her beautiful home to the Kappas for that evening which in itself is sufficient to assure a delightful time to the young people who attend the party. The Kappas will spare no trouble to make the party as elaborate and successful as any heretofore given by them.

With the recent issue of the Daily Cardinal, seven colleges and universities now publish daily papers. They are Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Brown, Michigan, Cornell, and Wisconsin. $ ^{i} $
In another column one of our students presents a scheme, which is certainly novel and interesting, although as a money making plan it may prove ineffective. It deserves, however, more than a passing thought.
ALTHOUGH the cumulative style of oratory is said to be a thing of the past, several of our contest orators have their "strikers" in training. They certainly intend to secure applause, even if the audience does grow weary in waiting for the clime.
As the season advances, students are receiving numerous "personal letters" from pseudo publishers and business houses, offering them most flattering situations,whereby the entire college expenses of a year can be made in two months, if they will only embrace the opportunity. The fate of those students who coined experience, not money, last year at the book business should be a sufficient warning.
Some one describes "the late unpleasantness" as getting home at 2 a.m. The average student would, however, describe it as getting "called up" before the august faculty at a most unexpected time. In accordance to this last meaning, the expression has come to refer to a definite period in this year's history.
HARVARD has at present sixty-eight students who are self supporting.—Ex. This should be no particular cause for congratulation. In the University of Kansas last year, 30 per cent of the students were entirely self-supporting, while nearly one-half were partially so. This would certainly indicate that the University students of Kansas do not attend college for fun but for business.
THE students of the University of Wisconsin began the publication of a daily paper the first of this month. Although "The Cardinal" is not on our exchange list, yet the single copy of the paper we have seen is a very creditable one indeed, and does full justice to the institution it represents. The managers of the "Cardinal" are to be congratulated for their energy. The Courier earnestly hopes the venture will be a success.
In the coming field day contest the Courier feels it but voices the almost unanimous sentiment of our athletes when it advocates that medals, not money may be given as prizes, and that the amateur athletic rules be strictly adhered to at the meet. In the past we have been careless in respect to both of these considerations, but as they are of paramount importance, it is hoped they will not be neglected this year.
A SCHEME.
Since owing to an unfortunate combination of circumstances, the effort to raise the University's quota of the Kansas world's fair fund by the Glee Club concert has not been fully successful, I wish to bring before the students a scheme that I believe will accomplish the object desired.
The plan is for the students to hold a presidential nominating convention of one of the great political parties. This could be placed under the general direction of the moot senate, and the convention held in the chapel or opera house. The different state delegations should be arranged and the nominating speeches be given by the best orators in the University. A brass band should be secured and all the forms of a regular nominating convention gone through with. If the convention was held in the chapel the space in front of the middle aisle should be reserved for the delegations and the other seats could be sold.
As this year is a political year and the people generally are interested in politics, a large crowd would undoubtedly be present and a considerable sum realized. It would be an opportunity of hearing the best speeches made by the best orators, and of witnessing and enjoying the noise and excitement of a big nominating convention,
"TAX PAYER."
At a recent meeting of the board of regents, provision was made for a University bulletin, whereby the people of the state could be informed of the results of experiments and investigations carried on at the University. For several years past the need of such a bulletin has been manifest. It is additionally acceptable at the present time, for now the farmers, not only of the state, but of the entire west, are interested in the results of Chancellor Snow's chinch bug experiments. By this means it is hoped the University will be brought nearer to the people of the state.
CIRCULARS are out announcing a western inter-collegiate field day to be held under the auspices of the athletic association of the University of Illinois in Champaign, Friday May 13th. At this meeting it is proposed to form a permanent organization among as many western colleges as possible. While it will probably be impossible for us to send any contestants to the meeting this year, yet steps should be immediately taken whereby the University of Kansas may become a member of the permanent association. Our institution is fast becoming a leader in the athletics of the west and should be included in the western intercollegiate association.
THE LECTURE BUREAU.
If you wish something pretty in new spring Hats go to the new millinery store, 845 Massachusetts street.
Why not take a boat ride? Dolly Graebar will furnish you a boat.
In the last two editions of the COURIER, an explaation of the recently organized lecture bureau has been asked for, but no one has seen fit to respond. We are sorry that no explanation has been given, for the students seem to be in considerable doubt as to what has been done.
At the beginning of this year the students met and agreed to organize a students lecture bureau. The gentlemen who had charge of the course last year, it was aged should continue to have charge of the course this year, and receive the door receipts. The sum accruing from the sale of course tickets should constitute a permanent lecture course fund, after paying the contract price of the lectures. The students elected a treasurer to take charge of this fund, and representatives from the various classes were chosen to sell tickets. It was also understood that a students lecture association should be organized this spring which should henceforth have charge of the lecture course. At that time the faculty objected to taking charge of the lecture course business,and the agreement entered into was, that in the future the lecture course should be under the control of a students' organization, composed of representatives from different classes.
Recently it was reported that the lecture bureau met, organized, and elected officers. As no mass meeting had been called and no representatives elected by the different classes, the Courier investigated and found the bureau had been formed in the following manner:
A committee of three had been appointed from the faculty, which committee in turn selected representatives from the different classes and departments. These students, together with the committee, constituted the lecture bureau, the faculty committee having veto power over any action taken.
While we do not wish to be understood as criticising or censuring in any way the action of the faculty in this matter, yet we feel we are but voicing the sentiment of the student body, in saying that the classes should elect their representatives and that the students should have more power in the present lecture bureau.
NEXT Friday evening the spring oratorical contest occurs. Seven or eight orators have entered and the contest promises to be a very interesting one indeed. As all of the contestants are new men, no one is able to predict the outcome, but various reports have it that the contest will be close and exciting. A spring contest is as yet an experiment, but we feel assured that next Friday evening will demonstrate the feasibility of such an event, and will permanently establish a spring contest.

TO STUDY ECONOMICS
A Branch of the American Economic Society Organized Price of Admission—The Local Circle to Meet Every Two Weeks.
Prof. Blackmar, president of the southwestern branch of the American Economic Society whose initial points for its monthly meetings are at Kansas City, Lawrence and Topeka, called a meeting at the Y.M.C.A. rooms Monday evening to organize a local circle and to elect a member of the executive committee of the branch society. Before organizing the "circle" the professor made a few explanatory remarks.
He said(the objects of the society were principally two, correct thinking, and the dissemination and promotion of the study of economic questions in the southwest. All questions of economic importance are to be discussed in an entirely scientific manner and not in the interest of any clique; partnership must be subservient. It is the intention of this society to help the members think correctly and to inform our eastern brethren that here in the west there exists as in the east, critical minds which are able to cope with the living issues of the day.
Local circles will be organized all over the country but will be sub-societies of the southwestern branch. Admittance to membership is §3. The publications of the society, six in number, are worth this amount and each one is entitled to them by virtue of membership. One dollar and a half of this amount will be turned into the treasury of the general society to pay its current expense, and the balance retained in the local treasury.)
After these preliminary remarks Mr. Stanley was elected president pro tem, and Howard Peairs secretary. The constitution, adopted at the Kansas City meeting, was approved and Mr. J. E. Peairs elected a member of the executive committee of the southwestern branch. Lawrence is entitled to two members, and Prof. Blackmar is the other member. A local circle was then organized. Howard Peairs president, Prof. Holder is vice president and Mr. Flint secretary.
There were about thirty persons present, many of these being students of the University. It is the intention of the "circle" to hold a meeting once every two weeks. All were quite enthusiastic and a successful career of the circle will certainly be realized.

GLEE CLUB.
prof. Hopkins Criticises it in a Happy Vein,
So long as affairs continue as they now are, it can never again be said that the State University has not a glee club, and a glee club worthy of the institution it represents. Those who had the courage to climb the hill Tuesday night in the face of the storm were more than repaid for their trouble. The writer has heard far inferior performances received without civil by eastern audiences, and all defects excused because the performers were college students; but no apology is necessary for any part of the program of last night; it may be criticised entirely upon its merits.
The opening number was given with a confidence and dash that comes only after many appearances in public, and that completely won the audience, though lamentably small because of the rain. From this point on the audience did its very best to make appreciation atone for its lack of numbers, and compelled the clubs to play more games. The number of the program was covered on at least; so that in all about twenty-five numbers were given. Such a musical feast for thirty-five cents is seldom heard of.
The banjo club was especially well received. The mandolin quartette was the best thing given; beyond that it is hard to make any distinction, the whole of their work was so well done.
The glee club needs trained and developed solo voices, first tenors particularly, and will doubtless be able to supply these from its present membership after practice longer continued. Singing without a leader led to occasional uncertainty of attack, and consequent indistinctness; this however occurring much less often than might have been anticipated as the direct effect of the empty seats in the hall. It may also be suggested that a discursive moment of another can alter the longer continuance of training and practice, some of the present numbers might with advantage be dropped as lacking in the distinctive characteristics of college songs in general.
All this, however, is simply to say that we have had a glee club for a short time only; and it would be hard to show wherein the club could have done better in view of this fact. That is why the tone of the "Nursery Rhymes" and of the imitation of the calliope, given as an encore.
The performance of the clubs as a whole was worthy of a crowded house; and the boys worked as faithfully as if they had had a thousand people before them. It would be offering the clubs no more than a deserved compliment if they should be pressed to repeat the concert, in order that the University and the city may have a better opportunity to know how much they have accomplished within the year.
E. M. HOPKINS.

Keep This.
The Triangular League base ball games will be played as follows Baker against Washburn, at Topeka, April 25; Washburn against K. U. at Lawrence, April 30; K. U. against Baker at Baldwin, May 7; K. U. against Washburn at Topeka, May 14; Washburn against Baker at Baldwin, May 21; Baker against K. U. at Lawrence, May 30.
Possible Contestants.
It is rumored that Barnes Holmes, O'Leary, Ross, Hervey, White, G. I. Adams, Mustard, Mendell, Peabody and Park will hand in orations to the executive committee. Surely if the above named students hand in productions to the committee for the contest next Friday evening, six good orations can be selected from the number. Of course there are others who will probably be "in it" but as yet have so managed as not to have it rumored about.
A Needs Necessity.
A very necessary and ingenious simple machine in the shape of an Automatic Air Tester has been placed in the library. It is unnecessary to explain its mechanism as any one can readily find this out by two minutes investigation. A day or two after the primaries had been held and the second ward carried for Blue this "air tester" which is near the newspaper rack, certified in its peculiar way that the air in the neighborhood was extremely foul. Ventilation did not seem to affect it all. However, on further iuvestigation, it was found that the removal of "The Record" from the newspaper rack removed also the disturbance and the "air tester" registered "pure air."
Will Probably Repeat.
A large number of the faculty and students have earnestly requested the Glee and Banjo club to repeat the splendid program of Tuesday evening, on some evening during commencement week at the opera house. It is very probable that the date will be Friday, June 3, and that several new numbers will be added to the program.

The annual Chancellor's reception to the faculty and graduating class will be held in Snow Hall, Friday evening, the 13th of May.
A very quiet wedding occurred at the home of Mr. A. Pemberton yesterday afternoon. The contracting parties were Miss Bertha Meismer, of this city and Frank A Marshall, of Kansas City. The wedding was a very quiet affair, there being only a few invited friends present. Miss Meismer was formerly well known here but for some time has been visiting in Leavenworth. Mr. Marshall is a prominent man on the Kansas City Journal.
The happy couple left yesterday afternoon for their future home in Kansas City, bearing the good wishes of many friends.
We clip the above from the Emporia Republican. Mr. Marshall is an old University student having attended here nearly eight years ago. Although not personally known to many here, yet his contributions to the "Review" makes his name quite familiar to us all. The Courier extends its greetings to Mr and Mrs. Marshall.

The Glee and Banjo club held a business meeting yesterday and decided to make a second tour in response to requests for dates from Wamego, Burlingame, Osage City and Ottswa, May 18 to 21 inclusive.

She Stoops to Conquer.
Unity Club will present "She Stoops to Conquer" at the opera house to-night and tomorrow night with matinee tomorrow afternoon. This will be the dramatic and social event of the season.
The fine old comedy will be stayed with elaborate and appropriate sittings and the costumes will be elegant and historically correct; in short the play will be put on with that careful attention to detail that has made all the productions of Unity Club so highly successful. The version of the play used by Stuart Robson in his recent famous revival of this comedy will be followed throughout and the stage business is under the direct supervision of Miss Georgia Brown. All who remember with pleasure the splendid revival of Shakesperian comedy last year in a Midsummer Nights Dream will be glad of the opportunity to witness the no less notable revival of this old Engiish comedy this year.
The cast of characters is a strong one and contains a number of prominent University people. It is as follows.

Business Manager's Notice.
The COURIER has often before threatened to stop sending the paper to delinquent subscribers, and this plan will be put into practice after the next issue. Things are getting interesting now, with the base ball season just opening, Field day approaching and the daily edition of the COURIER during commencement week, and no one can afford to be dropped from the list at this time. If you can't pay now, let us know and we will give you time; but our subscription list is to be revised May 1st, and those who do not make satisfactory arrangements before that time will be dropped from the list. So you will know how to account for it if you fail to receive your COURIER after the Istof May.
Tonight and Saturday Evening:
"She Stoops to Conquer" will be rendered this p.m. at 8 o'clock and Saturday evening.
Unity Club deserves a hearty response from the public for its persistent efforts to raise the character of home talent entertainments. In this case the selection of the play is a most fortunate one for everybody knows about it, and few have ever seen it played. The chance to see it played in a satisfactory manner should not be lost. Seats should be secured at once as the supply is limited.
Base Ball.
The time for the Triangular League games is fast approaching. Next Monday the first game of the series takes place at Topeka between Baker and Washburn, while the following Saturday we play Washburn on the home grounds. Both Baker and Washburn are reported as being very strong nines this year, but as our team is stronger than ever before, we hope at least to be able to cope with them.
The positions of the players have been pretty definitely determined, although it may be necessary to make some changes before Saturday's game. All the men are working hard, notwithstanding the unfavorable weather. The "eage" has been a great benefit and has strengthened all the players at batting. Next Saturday the boys appear for the first time in their new crimson suits, and clothed in that auspicious color, they will certainly win glory and renown.
Prof. Dyche has received two white cranes from Minnesota.
The department of entomology has added 200 new species to their beetle collection. The University now contains 6,000 North American beetles, or two-thirds of all the known species, and continues to hold a front rank among college collections.
Chancellor Canfield regrets that the recent action of the board of regents makes it impossible for him to obtain the services of certain members of the faculty, and congratulates the University on being able to retain them.
The Glee and Banjo Clubs turned over their receipts of the concert Tuesday evening to the University Columbian exhibit.

Music Hall.
The building on the corner of Berkley and Massachusetts street, formerly the Methodist church, is the one selected and is being fitted up at a cost of $1000.
In a letter addressed to the citizens of Lawrence and published in last Saturday's Journal, Prof. Penny announces the removal of the School of Music and Art to a more "convenient and central location, and the acquirement of that indispensible accompaniment to a music school,—a concert hall."
The building will be known as Music Hall. It was dedicated to the cause of music last evening by the celebrated Chevalier de Koutski who gave a lecture recital upon the subject "The Old Masters Whom I Have Met."
The Pipe Organ Fund.
A. Griffin has enough for all demands and is making very low prices. Call on Griffin and make contracts for season supply.
It would perhaps be interesting to know that there is a good amount now on deposit and credited to the Pipe Organ Fund. It will be remembered that Prof. Penny labored very hard last year to raise a large sum and the result of those labors is that out of a total of $924.70 received, there remains in the treasury $481.13; $443.57 having been spent to pay the necessary expenses. No work has been done this year to increase the fund, but the $481 is surely a flattering amount to induce renewed activity towards that end.

This evening will witness the first spring oratorical contest ever held within the chapel of the University. The Rev. Father Ennes will deliver an invocation after which the first orator of the evening, J. H. Mustard, delivers an oration entitled "The Puritan Idea." He will be followed by R. D.

"The Independence of Thought" is the third oration to be delivered by Harold Barnes and the fourth, by W. D, Ross, subject, "The Making of a Constitution." G. I. Adams and E. W. Palmer follow next: their subjects being "The Humanitarian Tendency of the Age" and "The Rennaisance in Italy," respectively. The judges on delivery are Profs. Miller, Robinson and Blake: on thought and composition, Profs. Hodder, Brownell and Williston. The music will be furnished by the ladies quartette, banjo club and gentleman's quartette. The contest will begin at 8:30. ___
The Athletic committee in base ball have signalized themselves and have won a monumental glory. The base ball committee has transcended their own proper duties and construed the rule so as to mean select the nine and place the men in the nine, a duty which properly pertains to the captain. The case of offensive partisinship is most apparent in the placing of Lieurance in the field in place of far better players.
"Justness of Barb Ruie."
The great justness of barb rule is very apparent. The two barbs on the team desired to have another barb on the team, and so selected the poorest player from the large number of applicants in order to have a barb fill the position. Every "Fan" in school is filled with disgust at the late committee's action. The men whom the school wish to run the base ball team, are Prof. Sterling and Archie Hogg. The committee should lapse into innocuous oblivion again.

Seminary Report.
As announced in the last issue of the COURIER, the meeting of the seminary was quite interesting. The first paper was read by Miss Nina Bowman, on the "Legal Status of Women." She said: "In England and France where the common law prevails, women have almost no property rights, and with the exception of the throne itself in England, can hold only the most unimportant poitical positions. But in America the wife's dominion over her estate is more generally asserted, this, because it is to the legislature rather than to the courts that married women appeal."
The second paper, "Women suffrage," was read by Miss Amy Sparr. She said that one of the best evidences that ere long there will be no distinction of sex, is that while once obloquy attached to the advocacy of women suffrage, it now commands the greatest recourse from all.
In England, Scotland and Whales single and married women may vote for all elective offices. Kansas is the only state that grants women compete municipal suffrage.
Miss Maggie Rush then read a paper on "Women in the Professions." She said: "The first woman to be admitted to the bar in America was Arabella Mansfield of Iowa, in 1869. Now there are seven women lawyers practicing before the U. S. supreme court. Elizabeth Blackwell was the first woman to qualify for the practice of medicine in America. She graduated at Geneva, N. Y., in 1849. In 1880 there were 2,432 physicians in this country, and Dr. Longshore of Philadelphia, has an income from her profession of over $10,000 per year."
The last paper, read by Miss Martha Thompson, was on the "Industrial Status of Women." She said that more than one-half of the human family consisted of women and that the greater proportion of these must earn their own living. The causes for this are orphanage, widowhood and unfortunate marriages which often compel wives to support their husbands. In view of these facts it is necessary that broad fields of employment be opened for women. Nor is this to be deplored, for employment is the greatest safe guard of morality and one of the greatest promoters of happiness. In order to accomplish the needed reforms, several things are necessary, among others: To remove the prejudice against female labor; to raise womah's wages and to lessen the hours of labor.

Moot Senate.
At the regular meeting of moot senate Tuesday evening it was decided to adjourn "sine die." The amount of work which at this time of the year comes"naturally for the juniors and seniors;the sultry nights which above all are anything but conducive to good rousing debates so characteristic of the senates work and many other reasons were advanced at the meeting Tuesday, why the senate should adjourn.
Miss Reasoner, of '90, stopped off at Lawrence while on her way to Leavenworth, to take in the old sights on Mt. Oread.
Postponed.
The field day has been postponed to the 28th of may. This was done for several reasons. The principal one was that the grounds would not be ready by the 21st of May; also the recent rains have delayed the grading to such an extent that it is simply impossible to have the field ready by that time. Then several of the principal athletes will not be in school on the 21st of May, having made arrangements to go on a tour with the Glee club; and taking these and other things into consideration the committee changed the date.

THE COURIER publishes a short account of the first Triangular League game between Baker and Washburn, with the thought that our players may know, to a limited extent at least, the kind of men with whom they have to deal.
OCCASIONALLY the remark is heard that the State University is a Godless school. The Lawrence Journal says: "There are twelve University professors who are either Sunday school superintendents or teachers."—Emporia Republican.
THE date of the senior play has been set for June the 4th, and the different parts have been assigned. This is the first time that a class play has been attempted, and the seniors will undoubtedly make it a success. They deserve great credit for their energy, in thus supplying a pleasing entertainment in place of the worn-out class day exercises.
A number of students have been enough interested in politics of late to vote at the republican primaries. The statement by one of the city papers that students' votes were bought is a base slander. Nevertheless, it is much as the boys were interested enough to vote, they should certainly be willing to pay their poll tax, even if the Lawrence officials do seem a little officious in collecting it.
ROY BAKER, one of the best players in the Washburn ball team, does not attend Washburn college at all. State Journal.
In this connection it is rumored that Os. Beeks is playing on the Baker team. As is generally known, he is not a Baker student, nor has he been for a number of years. The University will insist that none but college men play in the Triangular League games this year.
CROSS COUNTRY RUNNING.
WITH the great amount of inventive genious and mechanical skill there is at present in the University, it seems strange that some better arrangement is not devised, that shall supplant the rickety old newspaper rack in the library. At present it is almost impossible to take a paper from the rack without knocking down several others, and thus making a great clatter. The fastenings on the old frames have also become so loose, that invariably, the paper tears loose when one is reading it. Certainly some improvement on the present arrangement can be made with but very little expense.
STRICTLY speaking base ball is not the "national game." It did not originate with the Americans but was adopted by them. That base ball was a favorite sport in the days of ancient Rome, is not generally known, but is nevertheless true. Yes, long before the immortal Christopher ground a hand-organ, or the truthful George hacked his father's cherry tree, Cicero "twirled the sphere" and Caesar knocked a three-bagger with the bases full and two men out. Certainly there is nothing new under the sun.
Although athletics in the University of Kansas have developed very rapidly within the last few years, and this too without the aid of a gymnasium, yet there is a certain phase of out door sport that has not been indulged in—cross country running.
Most students can remember the time when they played "Hare and Hound,"but of late years they have probably forgotten all about it. In eastern schools there is no sport that is more thoroughly enjoyed than this. Most colleges have :'Hare and Hound' clubs,and some remarkable runs are attributed to them.
We have in the University some very good short distance sprinters, but as yet the long distance runners are few. No better exercise can possible be imagined by which a student can so readily increase his vitality as by judicious running. Indeed cross country running would be splendid practice for our foot ball men, in as much as we have no gymnasium, and some sort of regular exercise is necessary to keep them in training for next year.
The vicinity of Lawrence is especially advantageous for this sport, and it is hoped that our athletes will take hold of the matter and will develop some phenomenal long distance runners.
"THE KANSAS CONFLICT."
Governor Robinson's book, "The Kansas Conflict, will certainly be read by all Kansans and students of history generally with the greatest possible interest. As the book was written by one who was not only a participant, but an active leader in the early Free State struggle, it is of paramount interest and importance.
The idea which he impresses and fortifies by ample proof, is that the conservative Free State men, who were always on the defensive, yet were ready to fight when necessary were the men who made Kansas a free state. He shows that the battle that decided the fate of slavery was fought and won by Kansas men on Kansas soil.
It has been said that no man can safely write the history of his own time, yet most certainly Governor Robinson is an exception to the rule. For with the calmness of age he tells the early history of Kansas without prejudice or unfairness. The insane fanaticism of John Brown, the hot headed impetuosity of Jim Lane, the rabid severity of the abolitionist, and even the frenzied cruelty of the pro-slavery southerner, alike receive justice from his pen.
Besides being an exceedingly interesting book,by a vast remarkable man,it contains a vast amount of matter that is valuable to every student of Kansas history. There are many quotations from other historical works and public records, much public and private correspondence, and a large number of interesting extracts from contemporaneous newspapers, both in the north and south.
"The Kansas Conflict" is one of the most interesting and instructive works ever published on Kansas history, and will certainly be in great demand.
A UNIVERSITY BUTTON.
Now that the question of colors has been settled, the adoption of a University button is in order. For some time past the necessity of such an emblem has been apparent. On oratorical, foot ball, and base ball excursions, it has been quite impossible to designate University of Kansas men. At the contest, or at the games, our colors have been sufficiently prominent; but on the street, at home or abroad, something more seems necessary.
The proposed button would in no way interfere with class or fraternity pins. It would simply serve as an ornament and emblem of the University.
It is of but little importance to us to know that such buttons are in vogue in a number of eastern institutions. We are interested only, in so much as a button would be a neat and comely badge, and would be but one of the many distinguishing features of the University of Kansas.
A neat crimson button, or what is more preferable, one appropriately encribed with some emblem of the University and the, state has been suggested. As an emblem, the sunflower, or a buffalo's head, with the crimson letters U. of K. beneath, seem very appropriate. But whatever the emblem may be, let us have a University Button.
THE BASE BALL SITUATION
Some Lawrence business men, it is reported, are contemplating the erection of an electric railway that will connect the University with the business part of the town. The plan is as yet in an embryonic state, but the investigators of it affirm that it will undoubtedly be put in operation. Certainly such a street railway would be a great benefit and convenience to the University. The Courier most earnestly hopes the plan will prove a success, although at present it seems a little visionary.
ATHLETICS are rapidly assuming a very important role in the higher institutions of learning. Deficiency in freshman gymnasium work is counted as a condition at Williams College. At present we only wish we had a gymnasium in which our deficiency might be tested.
Mr. J. A. Rush attended the concert at Kansas City Saturday evening by the University of Michigan Glee and Banjo club, and returned more enthusiastic than ever over our own University Glee and Banjo club. He says that while the U. of M. Glee club excels ours in the possession of good solo voices, especially noticeable among the tenors, yet our Banjo club far excels the U. of M. club, and the program, as a whole, lacks that dash and enthusiasm which has made the program of our club so popular.
The base ball prospect which looked so bright at the beginning of the season, has suddenly darkened. The fact is greatly to be deplored that there are at present men in school so unpatriotic, that they look more to their own aggrandissement, and that of their particular faction, than to the welfare and best interests of the University. This spirit seems to have pervaded the base ball committee, and trouble has arisen as to the composition of the nine. A number of the committee hold that the base ball committee itself should select and place the players.
In the first place this is certainly without precedent, and not only a slight to the manager, but an arbitrary assumption of power. Unless Manager Sterling, at any rate advised by the captain of the nine, has not the authority to select his men, what does his office amount to? That a committee of five men is as capable to select and manage a ball club, as an experienced trainer and manager, is certainly foolish. The case is directly parallel to an army, controlled by a number of subordinates, and one controlled by a thoroughly competent officer. That Manager Sterling and Captain Hogg are prominently qualified to select the team, is apparent to every one, except perhaps a certain faction.
In the selection of the 'Varsity team, partisanship and petty jealousies, above all things, should not enter in. The best players, and no one else, should constitute the nine; even if every man should belong to the opposition faction. The University of Kansas wants a winning team this year, regardless of men or parties. This "late unpleasantness" is uncalled for and untimely. The COURIER regrets it exceedingly and hopes the matter will be amicably settled. That Manager Sterling and Captain Hogg should have complete charge of the selection and arrangement of the men would certainly be in accordance with precedent and, we feel assured, would be for the bes interest of the University.

BAKER VS. WASHBURN.
the First Game in the Triangular League Won by Baker How the Boys Played The Score.
The first of the championship games of base ball in the triangular league was played Monday in Tokyo and resulted in a decisive victory for Baker by the score of 13 to 6. Both teams showed lack of practice, for which the wretched weather of this spring is accountable. The fielding was slow and rather loose, neither battery was very effective, and had the players been better trained in batting the number of hits must have been greater than it was. There is excellent material in both nines, and the practice of the coming days will doubtless remove the causes of the raggedness of the playing of last Monday. The more brilliant plays were made by Washburn—a fine home run hit by Guildb far center, a hard catch of a four-by McVicar; Baker did the steadier work. The following is the story of the game:
Washburn went first to the bat, and the first man took his base on balls. A base hit by second and a wild throw brought in the run, Corrington then went out on three strikes. The next batter was struck by the pitcher, but before either of the men on bases could get in, a, little fly to third and another case of three strikes had retired the side. Baker's first man went out on three strikes. Then came a base hit by third. The next man hit slow to short and should have been out but fumbling and slow fielding gave him first. A hit to right brought in a run. Then came the second out, pitcher to first. Then came a bunch of hits which did not stop till Baker had seven runs, though the run getting was assisted twice by errors. The second inning brought Washburn another run. For Baker, after one man had taken his base on balls, the side went out in one-two-three order without scoring.
In the third inning Washburn did some batting, and slow fielding made it safe. The first man hit to third and beat the ball to first. Then a high fly to left was allowed to touch the ground. Then came some solid hits, and four runs had come in before this side was out. Baker retired without reaching first in the fourth three men were retrained for Washburn on three strikes but not till Guild had made four bases on a clean hit over center. This tied the score, but in her half, Baker, without batting much, ran in three tallies and went ahead. At this point Washburn's scoring ceased and the game improved. Washburn got men to first in the seventh, on four balls, on the eighth, on four balls, and in the ninth on two hits to center. Baker scored two more on the fifth and then stopped hitting. The game was umpired with perfect satisfaction by Mr. Dana, Princeton, '92.
The score by innings is as follows:
Total
Washburn .. 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 1-5
Baker .. 0 1 3 1 2 0 0 0-7
Glycerine Mounts.
At the last meeting of the Science Club attention was called to the use of glycerine as a mounting medium. This valuable preservation possesses properties which make it especially adapted for use by the microscopist, being non-volatile, colorless, slightly affected by changes of atmosphere, and of a high refractive index, it has no peer as a mounting for soft tissues. It is free from a serious defect possessed by balsom, that is a tendency to become yellow, and finally opaque, while the mounts are, if well made, quite permanent and unchangeable. Many are deterred from its more frequent use by the difficulty experienced in its manipulation. The following points require particular attention and care: do not use cells that have not been made at least two weeks; have the section perfectly dehydrated by twenty-four hours immersion in glycerine. Secure perfect elimination of the glycerine at the joint of the cover glass and cell wall. Finally the most important step is the operation of cementing the cover glass to the cell wall. This must be done thoroughly and when completed, finishes the internal work on the mount. But in this condition it is not finished. A slide is only done when it is nicely finished and labled. An observance of the above directions will result in a mount that will always be a pleasure and pride to its owner.
The Lecture Bureau.
The officers of the lecture bureau held a meeting Wednesday afternoon to discuss matters in general and to all vacancies. McClung was elected to fill the vacancy made by Mr. Bartlet, and Roberts was elected to the position formerly filled by Mr. Parrot. It is the intention of the bureau to make next year's course more interesting than ever. New material will be run in, that is, instead of hiring lecturers who deliver the same cut and dried speech year after year, they will be given less prominence on the course and some of our leading authors and poets will be substituted. Six entertainments will be given two of which will be concerts. It is also the intention of the bureau to have a few lectures given, free of charge, by some of the professors of the leading colleges.

FRUSTING.
What are churches, what are creeds?
They are only human needs.
Till the race of man has risen
From its narrow vaunted prison,
Men will wrangle and dispute
When the seraphms are mute.
But I trust in future time
Man will reach a peerless prime,
When the darkness will be riven
And a clearer light be given,
That will usher in the day
Of the pure and perfect way.
Though I know not when and where,
Yet I cannot but declare
That the crowning of the ages,
And the hope of ancient sages,
Surely will at last arise
Bright and fair on mortal eyes.
SNAP SHOTS.
It was at the recent rendition of a home talent performance and the little girl beside me was brimful of questions and comments. As the climax of the third act was reached she could restrain herself no longer. Leaning over toward me in a stage whisper she asked, "Don't hugging and kissing on the stage count?"
She looked as beautiful and guileless as a fairy, as she left the slender youth waiting for her in the hall. "Just wait till I get my wraps, Adonis," and a contented smile lit up his boyish face as he leaned against the casement.
As I stood in the doorway wonder ing why I was never in this manner favored, I saw that same innocent maiden emerge from the lower entry with another but handsomer man.
He was a small black, little fellow, about as broad as he was long, and eager expectancy beamed forth from his round, chubby face, as he rolled his white eye-balls and dis played an expanse of glittering ivory. Approaching a knot of students, standing on the depot platform, he said, "You fellers can't play no ball, 'less I go' long. Lend me "two bits?" Well, he played Mascotte that day, and it is needless to add that we won the game.
Business Manager's Notice.
The Courier has often before threatened to stop sending the paper to delinquent subscribers, and this plan will be put into practice after the next issue. Things are getting interesting now, with the base ball season just opening, Field day approaching and the daily edition of the Courier during commencement week, and no one can afford to be dropped from the list at this time. If you can't pay now, let us know and we will give you time; but our subscription list is to be revised May 1st, and those who do not make satisfactory arrangements before that time will be dropped from the list. So you will know how to account for it if you fail to receive your Courier after the 1st of May.

Unity Club Prizes.
The prizes for the best production on "She Stoops to Conquer" were awarded last Friday evening to Messrs. Menet, O'Brien and White. Mr. Menet, who was awarded first prize has been here in school but a few months; he is taking a preparatory law course. Mr. O'Brien needs no introduction, nor Hervey White. They were given second and third prizes respectively.
Second Tour.
The Glee and Banjo club has made quite a name throughout the state. Mr. Rush is in receipt of numerous applications for dates as soon as they can be given, the latest applications being from Kansas City, Kan., Hiawatha and Frankfort. It is not probable that any of these cities can be given dates, however, this season as it is now too late to arrange a third tour. The second tour will include Wamego, Burlingame, Osage City and Ottawa, May 18 to 22 inclusive. Meanwhile some new selections will be learned. It is earnestly hoped that the club will comply with the almost unanimous wish of the students and give a concert on Friday June 3, at the Opera House, as has been suggested.
