Our New Professors.
The largely increased enrollment of the past few years has demanded a corresponding increase in the corps of instructors, and this year six new names have been added to the University faculty.
Prof. Dome, by his advent last spring, is not unknown to the majority of students and his accession to the faculty will undoubtedly result in a large increase in the students of stringed instruments.
Mr. Hayworth, who will have charge of the classes in geology and minerology is an old graduate of the State University, and recently from Harvard.
Miss Galloo will assist Prof. Canfield with his French classes. She is a resident of Ann Arbor and has just returned from Paris where she has been studying for the past two years.
Mr. Shepherd, the assistant in physics.is a graduate of Cornell He will have charge of the newly equipped physical laboratory.
The English department will be releaved in a measure this winter, of a great part of its work by the able assistance of Mr. Jones, of Amhurst, Mass.
A new professorin piano forte has been provided in Prof. Carl E. Preyer. Prof. Preyer has been for the past summer in Vienna studying under the able instruction of Leschiltzky, who was the instructor of the famous Paderewski.
"Tangled Up."
"Tangled up," the next attraction at the opera house, is the funniest comedy by the funniest comedians on the road. The new curtain raiser, "Why" Bum McIntosh, and Boom-ta-ra and some political verses by Gilbert Gregory, will prepare the crowd for the fun to follow. The members of this company are more than comedians and actors, they are jolly good fellows, every one, and make personal friends wherever they go. Seats on sale Friday morning.
Now that the University is fairly opened it might be well for the Lawrence street commissioner or some other highly patriotic officials to see that the weeds are cut along Massachusetts street. That approach to the University is not only the easiest and nearest walk for many of the students, but connects the campus and athletic field, and certainly should be cared for.
This is the last issue of the "COURIER" under the present management. The staff wishes to express its thanks for the many courtesies it has received.

THE LESSON OF DEFEAT.
In the defeat of the base ball club last spring in the Triangular League, there is a lesson and a warning. That lesson and warning is, that to be successful in athletics, University politics and fraternities, schemes must be eradicated from the management of the athletic board.
Last fall a political combination hatched in a dark lantern caucus controlled the meeting and elected the officers. Whether the management last year of athletic interests was wise or not is a matter of opinion, but at all events if there continues to be political schemes in the election of athletic officers. University students will blush as often as they wear the crimson.
The members of the athletic board should be conservative men and a large portion of them should be professors. If fraternities are to be considered at all in the apportionment of offices they should be given representatives according to they have men in the various athletic interests. At all events no man should be chosen because he is a political fixer or because he is a good fellow. The frats and barbe should certainly be willing to bury the hatchet this year and vanish politics from the athletic board.
WHY IS IT that a student is so glad to get back to Lawrence in the fall, when with a feeling of utmost relief, he left in the spring? Why? Because Lawrence is an deal student town; because her people are so kind, so generous and hospitable; so long have they harbored him beneath their roof and treated him with kindness that it has become a second nature to them, a nabit, to do so. There is not a better town in this state or any other, where a student's welfare is looked after more and better, and it is just this spirit of hospitality which is aiding the professors on the hill to build up one of the grandest and greatest institutions in the west.
A NEW student—yes, you can recognize him at the first glance. Aimlessly and with a look of despair he wanders through the halls in search of,—what not? To look at him you would think he had lost his best and only friend. What are the questions he asks of the older students? My! What doesn't he ask? Where is room No. 10? Can you tell me where to find Professor——? What hour does my class recite, where is the chemistry building? Say, is Professor James on the hill? and a whole host of other questions too numerous to mention, furnishes an mexhaustive supply of ammunition to bombard the student, grown old and hardened to the core in the experience of university life.
To the new students,the Courier extends the greeting and hearty welcome of the University. May this year, so propitiously opened, be an era of success and good feeling.

FOOT BALL.
Although the University has hardly opened, yet athletics are already becoming predominant. Among both old and new students foot ball is the main topic of conversation,and the "man on-the team last year," with his gold triangular medal, is indeed an object of envy.
IT is gratifying to learn that steps have been taken to increase the dignity, and impress upon the minds of the students the great importance attached to the selection and election of officers for the Athletic association and lecture bureau. Formerly these elections were conducted in a manner that did not meet with the approval of the serious thinking and fair minded students. Here after, however, there will be two separate gatherings of the students called during the year by the Chancellor for the purpose of electing the men most fit to fill the important offices of both the Athletic association and Lecture bureau. It is the chancellor's intention, not to preside at these meetings but to make himself conspicuously present and thereby manifest to the students his feelings in regard to this very important matter. None who have formerly attended K. S. U. will for a moment doubt the great importance attached to the election of officers to fill the positions of responsibility offered by both associations. It is with a feeling of satisfaction that the Courier is able to cronicle this new move on
This year our chances of victory on the foot ball field are exceedinggood. Not only will about all of the old players be back this fall, but a fine athletic field is already in shape and a coach is to be secured as soon as the season fairly open. Yes, from all indications the Kansas State University will have a foot ball club this year of which she may be proud, and to be envied indeed is that man who is se fortunate as to be on the team.
the part of the chancellor which, it is hoped will do away with those principles of partyism heretofore practiced, and usher in to University politics a feeling of liberality, and common sense which will tend ever, to place the proper man in a position of responsibility which he is fitted to fill, and that, ably.
It is being whispered about that another literary society is to be organized. This is proper; but it is to be hoped that they who are at the head of the movement will not be so small and narrow minded as to deny admittance to any class of students. This feeling of clanishness will always be a detriment wherever practiced, and especially in a literary society, and if the history of literary societies at the Kanas University is perused it will be found that just this spirit has been the cause of no little trouble. Gentlemen, open the doors to all who will do the required work.
NEVER before in the history of the Kansas Stata University, have affairs been so indicative of a successful year. Seven hundred and fifty students are now enrolled and every day the enrollment list increases. Not only is the freshman class unusually large,but the higher classes are constantly receiving new members. Thus most certainly is the wisdom of the faculty shown in the abolition of the preparatory department.
Political Clubs.
Last year there was formed a league of college republican clubs, in which the leading schools of the country were represented. An effort was made to have one organization in K. S. U.but unfortunately the scheme fell through. The republican students should take hold of the matter at once in order that they can enter the national league and have a delegate at the national league meeting in Detroit the latter part of this month.
While speaking of a republican club the thought occurs that it would not be a bad plan to have a democratic club also, in order that the University students can expect enough influence on local politics to receive fair treatment at the hands of the city officials. A mayor should be elected who would see to it that approaches to the University are improved, and a street commissioner appointed who will treat the students fairly and impartially. The students can help the University and themselves if they will only organize.
Mr. F. J. Messenger has had charge of the business management of this issue of the COURIER and our remarkable display of ads is due to his energetic rustling.

[By the Board of Browning-King.]
We are now in our new store on the corner of Eleventh and Main.
It's the handsomest store in the city
The pants said to the coat and vest
"You think me quite below you.
But nary a man dare leave me off
When he goes out to show you."
The Browning, King & Co., pants are as handsome and nice fitting as any tailor can possibly make them and cost much less. They help out the coat and vest by helping the man to go out.
And ever since the world began
It had always been the way.
The woman has tried to outdress the man
Bob the man had the bills to pay
The man who wears the Browning, King & Co., clothing will always outshine the woman and save lots to help out on her bill.
If I were a student of K. S. U.
I'll tell you what I'd surely do;
I'd buy my clothes of Browning King
And send for their Monthly, it's a hand-

Manning-Parks.
Mr. John C. Manning, a former student of the music department of the University, and well-known as a brilliant pianist and genial man, was married yesterday in Garnett to Miss Maude Parks of that place.
Mr. Manning has been traveling the past two years as soloist with the Phila May Concert company, and give a remunerative position to spend the coming year under the special direction of the director of the New England conservatory who has interested himself in Mr. Manning's career. Afterwards he intends to spend two years in Vienna, Mrs. Manning is a former pupil of her husband, and many friends here will follow them with good wishes.
Foot Ball.
Prof. Hopkins has posted the bulletin of foot ball games for this season which have thus far been arranged, and has asked those who are candidates for positions on the first and second eleven to report to him at once. Systematic training is to be instituted, and with Pratt, Champlain, Mendell, Coleman, Dobson, Williamson, Huddleston and Cap, Kinzie of the old team, we will soon be able to cope with our rivals. Our "never defeated" record of last year should be an inspiration to the foot ball interests.
Prof. and Mrs. Dunlap returned to Lawrence Tuesday. Prof. Dunlap brings with him the degree of Doctor of Literature, which he won from Princeton by an examination and the presentation of a thesis. While Prof. and Mrs. Dunlap were in Boston, Mrs. Dunlap availed herself of the musical advantages which that city offers, and studied advanced vocal culture with one of the most celebrated instructors in the city.

The Athletic Field.
A glance northwest from the campus shows most plainly that Clerk Moody has by no means been idle this summer. The athletic field is fast assuming a metropolitan shape. An eight-foot white-washed fence, incloses about three acres, as smooth as a tennis court. In the northwest corner of the field the finest grand stand in the state has been erected, with a seating capacity of about one thousand, five hundred.
Commodious dressing rooms and shower baths have been provided for students taking systematic training and everything is provided for the best possible out-door exercise.
Mrs. Alice Rule, 1032 Kentucky street, formerly with Wilder Bros. shirt factory,will do students mending and will wash fine flannels. All work guaranteed. Prices reasonable. Reference, Y. M. C. A.

It is a lucky thing for students in town that Miss Brown's beautiful spectacle of Aladdin is to be played to-night. She is without an equal in her ability to drill children and those who witnessed Pinafore and The Midsummer Night's Dream will require no urging to see this play. So those of our readers who are here for the first time, we would say do not fail to attend and witness an exhibition of dramatic art as exemplified by Lawrence children, that is fine beyond description and cannot be excelled anywhere in America.
Our Bank Hall is especially adapted for Reception Parties.
Field & Gibb have rearranged and restocked their book store and are prepared to welcome new students. They have set apart one corner where students are always welcome to come in and rest and look over the periodicals placed there for their use. There is also a desk and writing material. All free to University students.
Dolly Graeber has fitted up a steamboat to run on the river. It will seat easily twenty-five persons and is just the thing for excursion parties. Students who wish to spend a pleasant evening will do well to take a trip up the river in the steamboat.

DOES IT PAY?
Hon.Kellogg in his address stated that the reason the state continued to support the university is "because it pays." The University is proud of its alumni. We point with pride to the work of the institution in scientific literary and economic fields. The farmer has been taught within the last two years the value of the work of the institution in furthering his interests. Each year an additional levy of taxes is made for which the state expects returns.
But does it pay the state to offer you the advantages of an education? If you apply yourself,yes. Conscious endeavor during four years will make of you an accurate and well read scholar. But if you have come to have a good time, to play foot ball, to turn your gigantic mind towards college politics to create jealousy and excite comment in the giddy whirl of fashionable society by your fine features and ineffable form, you will do well to study precedent and consider the fall and disgrace of your predecessors. Happily there are but few students who belong to this class.
It behooves the new student to stick close to his work and make a good beginning. Good grades are indicative of good work. The man who does his best never "flunks" although students have been known to fail several times before they attained to a consciencious performance of duty.
WITH this issue of the COURIER the new management begins its career. The COURIER has been moulding the sentiment of the students through ten volumes and thirty-nine numbers. In the discussion of college questions which have arisen it has always had the good of the University in view, and it is by the promotion of University interests and the creation of college enthusiasm that it hopes for continued success. So far as personality shall enter into the columns of the COURIER we shall try to make its influence tell for the right. We solicit your generous support. We need your friendship and your suggestions.
The change in hours of afternoon recitations so as to have the hour from 5 to 6 vacant is working havoc in the scientific studies. The change was presumably made in order to have the hour free for athletics and foot ball practice but it threatens to force some students to elect studies which they have no taste for and lose the benefit of training in subjects which are essential to their course. Two hours are required for laboratory work and it is impossible to do the work in the morning because the professors have classes to hear. The classes from 2 to 4 conflict with the classes from 3 to 5. There seems to be no way to remedy the evil except by returning to the old schedule.
Andy Reed shaves University Students at 712 Massachusetts St.
POLITICAL CLUB.
Now that the matter of organizing political clubs in the University is being agitated the students are beginning to awaken to a knowledge of their interest in the coming election. The student is not outside of the political world. Indeed history shows that colleges and universities have often been the leading element in political reforms.
Let the students acquaint themselves with the issues of the campaign in all their details. Let the University be represented at the national league meetings of college political clubs. But after all it is not so much representation that we want as it is an acquaintance with the methods by which the work of our club is to be accomplished. Then let us see to it that we are represented by men who on their return from the national meeting will be able to direct our work.
School of Engineering.
Quite a number of advances have been made during the summer by the school of engineering. A blueprint room has been partitioned from the west draughting room and a printing frame arranged so that it can be projected from the window Water and pans are supplied for washing the prints.
The school has been fortunate in receiving by donations two fine photographs valued at about $25 each. One is a view of the Colorado Midland railroad crossing the Rockies at Hagerman's pass. The effect of the photograph is heightened by being hung colored. It was presented by Passenger Agent Lee, Mr. R. M. Ridgeway of '92, presented a view of the D. & R. G. R. R. in its approach to Marshall's pass showing Mount Ouray in the distance. There are about fifteen miles of railway shown in the picture. Mr. Ridgeway is a division superintendent of the road. A large number of smaller photographs showing triumphs of engineering skill have also been hung in the recitation rooms.
A universal testing machine has been received and located near the shops in the building which formerly was used in astronomical observations. The machine is a mammoth one, weighing about two ton and a half. It is adapted for testing all kinds of building material, and has a capacity of 100,000 pounds and reads to the single pound. It is provided with electrical apparatus for determining the moment of contact in measuring the compression, extension, tortion, or flexure of the specimen used. These instruments are calibrated to the ten thousandth part of an inch. The small machine adapted for testing cements and materials in inch cross sections has been removed from the main building and located in the testing room.

Foot Ball Prospect.
The outlook for foot ball at the University is indeed encouraging. With the opening of practice this season we find seven of last season's team in the field ready and anxious to fight for new glories in the foot ball world. Besides these men from the first team we find a number from last season's second eleven and a large number of new men, all willing to work for a position on the "Varsity" team. These new men are not all entirely new at foot ball, as a goodly number have had varied experiences in the different high schools and academies of the state, so that at least a part of the new material comes to us really as old players. Already the practice games have shown that a number of new men will likely fill positions on the first eleven, but if so it will be by continued practice. Let none think that their position is assured for an evenings absence from the field of practice may place them in the rear and the positions be taken by men who are regular and systematic in practice. The one thing which is to be urged is persistent and earnest practice. The new men should familiarize themselves with the rules as soon as possible and then by combining the knowledge they obtained with that gained in field practice they will soon be able to cope with those of longer experience.
It was our expectation to provide a regular coach this season but so far this has not been done. In the meantime our manager, Prof. Hopkins, will be constantly on the field, as will also our Prof. Shepard of Cornell, a man who has had a long experience in foot ball at that institution.
The continued victories of last season may incline some to think we do not need the exertion in the practice games that we would give to a regular match game, but let it be remembered the greater our efforts, the greater the stimulant to the new men.
With hard and systematic practice we may look forward to the season of '93 and hope to cope successfully with the teams against which we are matched. The fact of this being the first year for our new field, should be a stimulant to greater exertion. Let us enter the seasons work with a determination not to fall behind the record of '92 but to make our eleven the "invincibles" of '93.

er 3rd.
Although the weather was very disagreeable last Saturday night, the Phi Psis report a very pleasant time at their hop in Odd Fellows Hall. Several new studenti were present upon whom the Phi Psis bestowed every attention, making the occasion one of the most pleasant gatherings of the season.
A very congenial gathering it was that assembled at the Merchants Bank Hall Monday evening in response to invitations from the hospitable Phi Gams. The air was cool and refreshing, which with the sweet music of the Mandolin Club made dancing very attractive. It was after midnight when the merry crowd reluctantly turned their way homeward.
Senior Reception.
The resident members of the senior class gave a reception to the non resident members at the home of Miss Maggie Rush on Oread avenue Friday evening. The reception room was beautifully decorated with plants and cut flowers. The seniors were in the best of spirits and the evening was very happily spent. The class this year promises to be larger than ever before and is not lacking in enthusiasm. Class spirit which has been rarely met with in preceding classes found early development in this class by the organization effected last year, the box parties, receptions and the May pole affair.
An occasional mention during the evening of the annual to be published and the plans of the year showed that there is a general interest in the success of the class. During the evening an elegant lunch was served. The souvenir of the occasion were class badges made of the class colors, lavender and cream,upon whise was printed. Ro. Roh. Ro.

But one thing occurred which marred the pleasure of the evening When the gentlemen sought their hats they found that some dastardly villian had cut or knocked the crowns out of all of them except two. For a moment frowns of anger passed over the brows of the gentlemen and looks of pity came upon the faces of the ladies, but all this changed when the thought occurred of the intense satisfaction they would have in seeing the culprit ducked in the Kaw some frosty night or otherwise summarily dealt with. As the guests departed the yellow moon arose and the projection cast upon it by the heads of the senior boys made it look as if the man in the moon wore whiskers and a ragged collar.

Died.
The students were shocked to hear of the sudden death of Mr. Dan Crew from an over dose of morphine. Mr. Crew has been connected with University interests for several years. He was a graduate of the law school and had many friends among the alumni. He was popular as a musician and hardly an oratorical contest passed at which he did not sing. He was a member of the Glee Club last year, accompanying it as a special artist and was to have been with it this year. He was a young man in the prime of life and we lament his sad and untimely death.

AMUSEMENTS.
The first opera of the season will be Offenbach's master-piece, "La Perichole" presented by the Jeannie Winston opera company this evening at the opera house. This is the best comic opera company on the road, and has been drawing crowded houses everywhere. "La Perichole" is the best of their large repretoire. Miss Winston is said to be the best impersonator of the difficult male part of Piquillo that has ever tried it, not excepting the great male tenors. Miss Alice Johnson, the prima donna soprano, is an artist of great merit. The other members of the company are all good. The chorus of thirty ladies is especially beautiful.

The Lecture Course.
The University lecture bureau has nearly completed arrangements for the course of lectures and concerts to be given this year. No pains have been spared to make it the strongest and most attractive course ever offered here. The opening entertainment will be a concert given October 22nd by the Schubert quartette, which is pronounced by good authorities to be one of the finest concert companies in the country.
The number of entertainments of which the course is to consist has not yet been definitely decided, but will be in a few days. This much, however, can be stated with certainty, that it will consist of six and possibly seven entertainments in addition to that to be given by the Schubert company. Only one of these will be a concert, that will be given Feb. 24th by the Mozart Symphony Club. Leland T. Powers, the impersonator, and Dr. Gunsaulus; both so deservedly popular with Lawrence people, have both been engaged and their dates will be announced in a few days. In addition to these the bureau has been fortunate enough to secure an engagement for a lecture from Miss Isabel F. Hopgood, the well known lecturer on Russian subjects. The other places have not yet been filled, but the bureau is in correspondence with a number of men of national reputation for scholarship and brilliant oratory, and hopes to be able to publish a complete list of the lecturers next week.
Course tickets will be placed on sale at the University some time next week. Though the course will cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,200, these tickets will be sold for $2. Reserved seats for each entertainment will be opened for holders of course tickets twenty-four hours sooner than for those not holding them.
For the benefit of new students it may be explained that the lecture bureau is a University organization
consisting of members of the faculty and representatives of the student body, and that its object is to furnish to the faculty and students at actual cost, a series of the best lectures and musical entertainments that can be secured. It is earnestly hoped that every student, old as well as new, will lend his support to this enterprise, not only by purchasing one or more course tickets himself, but also by doing all in his power to bring it to the attention of the citizens of Lawrence. If the lecture course is to be a permanent feature of the University, it can only become so by the cooperation of the faculty and students.

GLEE AND BANJO CLUB,
The Glee and Banjo club is making arrangements for a tour this fall. Several towns desire to secure dates for entertainments and the business manager is arranging a trip. The success of the tour last year was certainly flattering and that the people were pleased with the concerts given, is proved by the fact that they wish to secure the club again.
But the club does not flatter itself that there is no room for improvement. New voices have been added and the club has been materially strengthened. A sufficient number of the last year's members have returned so that it will be for the most part composed of experienced men.
Prof. Geza Dome will accompany the club as violin virtuoso. Prof. Dome is already quite well known throughout the state and the club is very fortunate in being accompanied by so fine an artist.
The tour of the principal cities of the state will do much toward advertising the Universito and increasing its popularity. The club undertakes to make the tour independent of any financial backing from the institution and it certainly should have the support of the entire school.
A FALL TOURNAMENT.
While foot ball is engaging the attention of its large number of admirers, the lovers of other out-door amusements should not be backward in pressing the demands of their favorite sport. Tennis in particular should not be allowed to become obsolete, and those interested in it should see that some steps be taken for the benefit of the tennis players. The triangular league includes tennis as well as foot ball and base ball, and the University should not take any chances of losing one of the pennants. The University at present has no tennis courts, and there is no opportunity for their being made this fall. The tennis players in the University have therefore to depend upon the courtesy of the Lawrence clubs for whatever practice they get, and though this can not be obviated at once, some encouragement should be given by the Athletic association to this branch of athletics. A fall tournament would be the proper beginning for such encouragement, and should by all means be given under the auspices of the association. The courts of the west Lawrence clubs could be obtained and would make a most satisfactory place for a tournament. The courts have undergone improvements during the summer which make them by far the best in Lawrence, and a tournament given on them would start the tennis ball rolling for the year. Something of the kind will be necessary to determine who is to represent the University in the triangular league. Let the tennis committee take this in hand.
Andy Reed is the student's barber. Give him a call.
SCHOOL OF ART.
The department of music has issued a circular to the musical public of the state announcing the changes in the faculty. The faculty as now organized is composed of Geo. B. Penny, dean and professor of vocal culture and theory; Prof. Preyer, piano forte; Prof. Dome, violin; Mrs. Dunlap, piano and voice; Miss Laura Penny, assistant in piano.
The senior class is composed of five members, Miss Louisa Smith of Leavenworth and Miss Hinman of Lawrence in the artists course; Miss Hood of Nortonville in the teachers course; Miss Titsworth of Nortonville and Miss Kaufman of Newton in vocal music.
The work in art is under the direction of Prof. Hopkins. There will be no senior clos this year, the course having been extended to four years and made to include English, German and Italian.
The stage in the concert room has been lowered to a proper height and the room seated with chairs. The school has in contemplation the publication of a monthly journal devoted to music.
THE ANNUAL.
For the first time in some years the the University is to have an annual. It is to be gotten out under the auspices of the senior collegiate class, which has been maturing its plans for this publication since the middle of last year. It is the intention of the class to get out such a book as shall be a credit both to itself and to the University. The aim will be to make it a complete and fair record of every phase of University life during the year. up to the time of publication.including more or less detailed accounts of each of the departments, descriptions of the various societies, class and other University organizations, class histories, etc. Various literary features will also be introduced, which will be announced in due time through the columns of the COURIER.
Though,as stated before,the publication is to be under the management of the senior class, yet every other class and department will be asked to cooperate with the seniors in the enterprise.
The annual will be published some time just before the holidays. With regard to its size and other mechanical features it may be said that the class hopes to be able to get out a tastefully bound volume of some two hundred (200) pages, illustrated with cuts of members of the faculty, class emblems, University buildings, the various athletic teams, the Glee
In order that this co-operation may be secured in the most satisfactory manner it has been decided that each of the three collegiate classes outside of the senior class, and each of the departments of engineering, law, music and pharmacy, be asked to elect two editors who shall have in charge the pages of the annual to be devoted to his class or department.
and Banjo club, and other objects of interest to University people. It may as well be said in the beginning, however, that the size of the publication, and the fullness with which the various interests shall be represented in its pages must depend largely on the support which these interests are willing to give the seniors in this matter. But whatever the size of the book or the number of its illustrations, it may at least be said that it will be printed on the best of paper and that no cuts will be put in which are not first class in every respect.
The senior class lays the matter before the faculty, the students, and the other friends of the University. It is going to publish an annual. It will in any event make it a decent, a fair and a creditable publication, with the hearty co-operation of those from whom it asks encouragement and support it will make it such a publication as has never yet gone out from the University, and one which will do much to secure for it, both here and in the east, that respect which it deserves as the leading educational institution of the west.
CHAPEL RHETORICALS
The COURIER publishes the plan for chapel rhetoricals. We regret that an experiment which has previously proved a failure should be repeated. It is unpopular with the entire body of students and with a part of the faculty.
To make the work a required study is a step backward from the plan of optionals which has been followed by the University. There are many who do not aspire to oratorical honors or seek distinction as public speakers. Oratory is itself an unnatural manner of expression for most occasions and few care to practice it. Those who do will find a semi-annual appearance before a depleted audience but a sad training.
What most desire is the ability to make an extemporaneous speech and the place for such training as is adapted to their needs is the literary society. There are but few who have not already delivered high school orations and learned that such productions contain little real value. A University man should be taught to prepare addresses and papers and the theme and forensic work is well adapted to this purpose.
If there are those in the University who desire training in oratory they should be offered the advantages of systematic training under a professor of elocution.
The faculty have sought to increase the attendance at chapel this year and their efforts have been quite successful,but the necessity of listening to one or two set speeches will cause many to absent themselves. A few will attend no doubt out of respect to their friends,and others who are regular in their attendance at devotionals will stay for the same reason,but rhetoricals
can hardly be expected to draw a crowd when they are unpopular.
We regret that Prof. Blake should have coupled his generosity with so unfortunate a movement. Probably it was out of pity for the suffering students that he thus expressed his sympathy with the movement.
We say what we do concerning this plan to express the feelings of the majority of the students, lower class men as well as juniors and seniors. No student of the University is unloyal to the best interests of the institution, but they will not submit to these regulations without a protest. If the students submit it will be out of respect to the school rather than because they believe in chapel rhetoricals. If the diploma of the institution is held in an iron hand few will care to submit to its rigor for the sake of a sheep skin.

Regulations Concerning Classes and Examinations.
A student may be enrolled in any class only upon presentation of his "card of registration" for the school in which the class belongs.
A study may not be dropped because of failure or to avoid probable failure and all failures in examinations must be made good at the earliest possible date—not later than one year from the failure. If not made good by the time of recurrence of the class, the work must be taken in class.
Special students may not be enrolled in any class without the approval of the instructor.
A student may not be enrolled in any class in advance of any other study in his course which he has not completed and which it is possible for him to carry at that time.
A student may be enrolled for more or less than three full studies or their equivalent only upon the approval of a committee of the faculty appointed for the consideration of such a cause.
Examinations shall be held for all students, and during the regular recitation hours of the last days of the term (or half term), such study in its proper recitation hour; they shall continue not to exceed one hour for each hour per week that the class has occupied.
A student wishing dismissal from a class must receive the consent of the instructor and approval of the chancellor.
A student failing in more than one-third of his work severs his connection with the University ipso facto. No distinction shall be made in the returns and first action between "Not Examined" and "Failed" in the application of this rule.
All passing grades shall be reported on white cards as follows I, II, III, or "Pass." All others shall be reported on colored cards "Failed" or "Not Examined."
A condition which is not made up at the next following examination period is replaced in the list of failures.
A student who has failed to pass any examination may be conditioned upon the same by the chancellor if in the opinion of the instructor it can be made good by the next examination period (see below) without detriment to the regular work of the student.
No special examination shall be given except during examination weeks and the first week of the fall term.
Grades accepted from other institutions shall be recorded as "Passed." All examinations given
in the University shall be graded; examinations on work done outside of the class and re-examinations shall be more searching and comprehensive.
Chapel Rhetoricals.
Cigar Are
At the last meeting of the faculty in June, it was decided to re-establish a system of chapel rhetoricals, according to some plan to be formulated later by the department of English. In accordance with the action of the faculty, the department submits the following plan:
Every member of the junior and senior classes shall be required to prepare and deliver from the chapel stage once in each term an oration to consist of not less than 750 or more than 1,000 words; this oration to be accepted by the English department in place of one of the forensics required in each term. The order of speakers and the dates when their orations are due shall be determined by lot, and the order of speakers for each term shall be posted in or before the beginning of that term.
Each oration shall be handed to the English department at least one week before the date of its public delivery, that it may be criticised, corrected, graded as to substance and style, and returned to the writer immediately. It shall then be committed to memory and delivered on the date assigned immediately following the regular chapel exercises, and again graded as to delivery.
To encourage earnest and faithful effort in the cultivation of public speaking, a matter in which the University has hitherto been palpably deficient, through the kindness of Professor L. I. Blake two cash prizes of twenty-five dollars each are offered, one to the best speaker of the junior class, and one to the best speaker of the senior class. The winner of each prize is to be determined in accordance with the following conditions:
It is suggested that the first public contest be held upon Washington's Birthday, or immediately after the opening of the spring term.
At the conclusion of the regular order of speaking for the term of the year as the case may be, the English department shall announce from recorded grades the names of the best ten speakers in each class. These ten shall again compete in private before a selected committee of three to be designated by the department, or by the class;and from each ten three shall be chosen to represent the class at a public contest. At this public contest, a committee of three judges shall award the prizes to the best speaker from each class.
It is hoped that the preceding plan will add interest to the chapel exercises, give a healthful variety to the character of the required work in English composition, and cause an increase of attention to the subject of oratory, a subject which is sadly in need of attention
among us; and that it will for these reasons meet with the hearty cooperation of the classes concerned, and of all who have the best interests of the student body at heart. It is because of the apparent need in this direction that the plan has been called for by the faculty, and prepared by the department; and as it is still somewhat incomplete as to detail, suggestions from all interested will be welcomed and carefully considered.
The order of speakers for the present term has been determined in accordance with the preceding, and will be found posted on the University office bulletin. The first chapel oration is due October 3,and should be in the hands of the department one week earlier. Senior orations are to be handed to Professor Dunlap, junior's to Professor Hopkins. Exchanges of date may be arranged at pleasure, if the department is notified in advance.

Perhaps the most enjoyable social gathering that has yet been had this fall was the hop given by the gentlemen of Phi Kappa Psi last Friday night. The Phi Psis have an enviable reputation as entertainers and that of Friday evening was one of the most pleasant hops they ever gave. The music of the mandolin club gave dancing an extra charm which was enjoyed by all till a late hour.

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.
The manufacture of cigarettes has increased, in thirteen years, from £38,000,000 to 2,877,000,000.
—A San Francisco woman has invented a clamp to hold a fowl fast to the dish while it is wrestled with by the amateur carver. Thus vanished another excuse for bachelorhood —Indianapolis Journal.
—In this country $3,000,000 acres of land are being farmed by irrigation. France owes its wonderful success in gardening to this system, and in late years Italy has spent over $200,000,000 for this purpose.
—In Manitoba, Canada, there were 18,937 farmers in 1891, each averaging 78.5 acres under cultivation. The average price of improved land is $10.93 per acre, of unimproved $6.96, the percentage of land taken up by settlers was 62.7, and the percentage fit for cultivation 74.8.
- Gambier is the second largest vegetable product of the Malay peninsula. It is a most important tanning material, is used as a brown dye, as a medicine and in silk works. England imports gambier to the value of $2,300,000 annually, and our American imports are close to $1,000,000.
—The first manufacturing enterprise started in America is said to have been a glass factory, which was built in 1008, about a mile from Jamestown, Va., and from this was exported the first North American manufactured product. This factory soon fell into decay; but another was built in 1631 for the purpose of making glass beads for the Indians.
Colorado is usually thought of only as a rinsing state, but with the success and spread of irrigation she is pushing 'o the front as a fruit-producing state. A very large crop of the most luscious watermelons in the country is raised in Colorado, and the product is of such importance that watermelon day is a special holiday all over the eastern portion of the state; the governor usually attends the festivities at the watermelon growing center and excursionists attend in thousands. This year Colorado has produced 2,200,000 quarts of strawberries.
—Swedish iron, which is soft, yet strong and dau'ile, is almost free from phosphorus and sulphur. It is held to be practically inexhaustible, though taken out at the rate of about a million of tons a year. It is found all through the country, though mined chiefly in central Sweden, in the Dannemora district. Several of the heights as truly deserve to be called iron mountains as those in Missourd, and there is one in Gellivare, in Swedish Lapland, beyond the Arctic Circle, where the ore occurs in four gigantic strata, that would supply nearly all the iron that the country would require in a century. —Minerals.
—Experiments made at the Royal Danish Academy have demonstrated approximately the height of the aurora borealis. M. Adam Paulsen, at Godthaab, by means of two theodolitics situated four miles apart, found that different aurora displays varied from one to four miles in height. Experiments near Cape Farewell showed the height of different auroras to vary from one to ten miles. At Spitzenberg the range of height was from one-third to eighteen miles. In some of the earlier experiments in this direction the observers concluded that the height of auroras varied from ninety to five hundred miles.
—In a recent number of Le Genie Civil, M. P. F. Charon says that the products of combustion from a charge of dynamite have been found to be approximately; Steam, 19 per cent; carbonic oxide and carbonic acid, 58 per cent; nitrous products, 15 per cent, and nitroglycerine vapor in varying quantity. The carbonic oxide, nitrous compounds and nitro-glycerine vapor are very deleterious, and their formation should be prevented. This M. Charon says, can best be done by using a more powerful detonator, say one to thirteen gramme, instead of one-half gramme of fumilene, thus making the combustion more perfect. To counteract the effects of the injurious fumes the author recommends a draught of strong, pure coffee and the inhalation of ammonia, sulphurous acid or concentrated acetic acid.

DILEMMA OF A PRINCE.
He Has Two Rather Compromising Law-suits on His Hands.
Our Rome correspondent sends us some interesting details of two lawsuits now going on against Prince Sciarra-Colonna, says the London Daily News. In the first the government is charging him with the sale and exportation of rare pictures and objects of art to France, and in the second his creditors are suing him. As to the pictures, it has been found how the prince succeeded in exporting them. At the back of his palace is a theater, the Quirino. Into the courtyard of the palace large boxes were carried similar to those in which theatrical companies transport stage properties. Then the "Violin Player" of Raphael and pictures by Titian were packed in these, together with the scenery, and the whole was sent to France scheduled as "theatrical furniture." The "Violin Player" is famous as being one of Raphael's last works. It bears the date 1815—two years before his death—and it is interesting as bearing a resemblance to the painter. This act has been impugned as illegal, firstly, because the gallery is entailed, and secondly, because, even if it were not so, the exportation of objects of art is prohibited unless the right of preemption is offered to the government.

THE STUDENT IN POLITICS.
We naturally consider that the exclusive life of a student prevents him from taking an active interest in politics. His time is occupied for the most part with his books and laboratory work and he finds but little opportunity for discussing the issues of the day. Some indeed think that being away from home they are deprived of the right of voting and consequently wait until they are out of school to study politics and assume the responsibility of a citizen.
But is this not a mistaken notion? Is not a student in the University who comes here for a period of four years neglecting his duty to the commonwealth which offers him the facilities for an education if he fails to interest himself in the political issues of the day. If a student relapses into political apathy it is questionable whether he will ever awaken to the duties of citizenship. The exclusion which his books afford him may become a permanent bar to his casting a ballot.
There is not a political speaker who comes to Lawrence but courts the favor of the University. There is not a speech delivered but has sandwiched into it some where an allusion to Mount Oread. The students are an important factor in politics and no one recognizes it better than the politician. Why put off the organization of political clubs any longer? The students are going to vote this fall, let them have the advantages of organization.
GYMNASTICS.
Now that the students have all settled down to hard work and the professors are each demanding full time to be put on their lessons it is questionable whether the proper attention is given to the matter of exercise. The University is unfortunate in having no gymnasium which is accessible to the students as a body, consequently one is thrown upon his own resources for gymnastics. The room which was fitted up last year in the north dome afforded an opportunity for a few to exercise, but this year no provision is made for the use of the apparatus which was purchased with the fees charged last term. No doubt the new athletic board will look after this matter.
A few who excell in foot ball are encouraged to regular practice but most of the students take no other exercise than that demanded of them in climbing the hill. It is indeed fortunate that the buildings are situated on Mount Oread. The walk up the hill, if not taken directly after a meal will prove good exercise Some precautions are to be observed, such as walking at a moderate pace and proper breathing. The habit of breathing through the nose will be found of more value when cold weather comes but it should be formed now. The hill will cause an expanse of chest and a strengthening of limb which will be of permanent value, but the student who neglects to take other exercise is doing himself an injustice. Each one should provide himself with clubs or dumbells and set apart a special time for gymnastics.
MANDRAGORA.
When about to leave London this summer Prof. Sayre had the good fortune to be presented with a very fine specimen of the mandragora. The gentleman who gave it to him is an agent of a large importing drug house and obtained several mandragoras on one of his trips to India. Because of the striking resemblance to the human form many superstitions have grown up concerning this root and the natives regarding it as almost sacred, will not permit it to leave the country, consequently it was obtained through stratagem.
Atropa mandragora is a narcotic plant belonging to the solinaceal family, and the same genus from which beladona is obtained. It is commonly known as the mandrake.
The specimen which Prof. Sayre has, at first sight, looks like a small idol carved from wood and painted a dull terra cotta. A close examination will show however that it is a natural growth and that what is at first taken for paint is the bark of the root. The likeness to the human form is so striking that one can hardly believe that nature has not been interfered with. The right arm crosses the breast and both hands are clasped upon the left side. There are five distinct fingers.on each hand. The feet are somewhat injured, the toes having been broken off. The body is quite symmetrical although a little thick. The face is di-torted but nose, eyes and mouth can be readily distinguished. The back is slightly shrunken, the root seemingly having been injured. But with all its imperfections it so near approaches the "human form divine" that only personal observation and the assurance that this is not different from other mandragoras can convince one that nature is capable of producing so great a won-
The medicinal properties of this wonderful plant and the superstitions connected with it are best understood from their treatment in classic literature. Its soporific influences are alluded to in Webster's "Duchess of Malfy" in the following lines:
Perhaps Shakespeare has given the superstitions the most extensive treatment of any author. In Antony and Cleopatra I, 4, 4. Cleopatra says:
"Come violent death,
"Give me to drink mandragora That I may sleep out this great gap
Serve for mundragora and make me me sleep."
In Othello III, 3; 330, there is a similar reference to it.
"Not poppy nor mandragora.
Nor all the drouwy summen."
My Antony is away."
Nor all the drowsy syrups of the world
Shall ever medicine thee to that sweet sleep,
Which thou ow'dst yesterday."
That the plant is supposed to groan when torn from the ground
and thus make mad the one who disturbes it, is shown by a quotation from Henry the Sixth III, 2, 310.
"A plague upon them, wherefore shall I curse them? Would you kill them?"
Would curses kill as doth the man-dragora's groan,
I would invent as bitter-searching terms
As lean faced Envy in her loathsome cave."
The same idea is also brought out in Romeo and Juliet. Before drinking the potion given her by the friar, while musing on her awakening in the crypt, Juliet thus soliloquizes.
"Alack, Alack, is it not like that I So early waking, what with loath-
Like mandragroas torn out of the earth
That living mortals hearing them run mad, etc."
Independent of any superstitions connected with it the mandragora is one of the most interesting specimens which the institution possesses.
Any one desiring to see it can have the privilege by calling at the pharmacy laboratory.
GLEE CLUB.
The Glee Club promises to rival the foot ball team in advertising the University and gaining glory for themselves. The trip last year was a limited one, but this year the club will be on the road about three weeks. Dates have not been definitely arranged but the probability is that the tour will be made during the holiday vacation. The club will visit St. Joe, Kansas City Denver and Pueblo. The other engagements will be in intermediate Kansas towns. The business manager is busy with correspondence and will soon be able to make definite announcements.
Economic Association.
The reading circle of the South western Economic association held a most pleasant and instructive meeting last Monday evening in the High School building. The subject for consideration, "Banks and Banking," was most ably treated by W. E.Hazen, of the Watkins National of our city. Mr. Hazen's paper gave in detail; by no means tedious, the history of the bank as an institution for facilitating trade and commerce. He showed its early necessity and traced its development into the state banks and national banking of today. The steps necessary to organization of a national bank and the advantages of the national above private banking were clearly and forceibly presented. An enthusiastic discussion of Mr. Hazen's paper was kept up until the hands on the dial pointed to 10.
The association adjourned to meet at the same place two weeks from date. These meetings which are conducted on the seminary plan so prevalent in our higher institutions of learning are sure to be productive of great good in the dissemination of a better understanding and in arousing united interest in the vital economic problems of the day.

ATHLETIC ELECTION.
The Political Pot Boils -Who Kindles the Fire-Siates Made and Broken.
The regular annual election of officers on the athletic board last Tuesday was the occasion of much political scheming. No one needed to post a notice to warn the students of the coming election. Everybody knew that the time was approaching. The would-be leaders of the different factions got to work early and devoted their time and tongues to the furtherance of their favorite interests.
Every thing was cocked and primed for a meeting at 1 o'clock. When the announcement that the regular time was 5 o'clock was made many drew sighs of relief and started for their dinners which would otherwise have been neglected. The slates were put away for safe keeping and each party waited the coming conflict confident of success.
The rumor that law students were coming in a body to demand their rights caused quite an excitement. The law school has not as a usual thing asked for a share in the offices and this gave a new turn to affairs. Some remembered the rush for hats last spring and thought that the prospects were good for a similar rush for offices. But the laws were serene and peaceful. They knew what they had come for and when the time came they expected to get what they asked.
At 5 o'clock the gong sounded and the crowd in the lower hall adjourned to the chapel. After a partial report of the financial condition of the associations Chancellor Snow made a few remarks, cautioning the students against fostering selfish interests to the detriment of athletics and then proceeded with the election. Prof. Marvin was the unanimous choice for president. Piatt and Foster were nominated for the position of secretary. The vote as indicated by the showing of hands was quite sectional. Piatt was elected. R. K. Moody was elected treasurer by unanimous consent.
Then it was that the laws made known their demand for representation by the nomination of Prof. Green, the "Prince of Sports," for the first member of the executive committee. It is needless to say that he was elected. Reno was chosen the second member and Holmes was returned to office, no one being found who could fill his position.
The supporters of the various interests then adjourned to elect representatives. Williamson and Champlain were elected by the foot ball enthusiasts, Coleman and Huddleston by the oarsmen; Prof. Carruth and Whitman by the lovers of tennis.
The erection of base ball men proved a greater problem than any one had expected. Mattison was elected by a fair vote, but when it came to the second representative
nois and confusion reigned supreme. Prof. Adams proved powerless in suppressing those who sought to see their favorites ejected. In a fruitless struggle for justice the meeting adjourned and Kelsey was declared elected.
But after all the wire pulling the athletic board is composed of re presentative men and no interests will suffer at their hands. The new board will be harmonious and will work for the success of our school in the season's games.

A University student is spending his vacation very profitably in the country driving a yoke of oxen, and is educating them in the English classics. For example, instead of yelling "Gee, Buck!" he locates the ejaculation: "Abandon the direct progression to the straight thitherward and deviate by inclinatory and aberrant dextrogyration into a dextral incidence."

The Phi Delts gave their initial hop of the season in their hall in the Journal building Saturday evening. These gentlemen are known as royal entertainers and on this occasion their reputation was fully sustained. No fraternity in the University has a cosier hall or more good dancers than Phi Delta Theta, The Mandolin club furnished excellent music which was enjoyed by all until 12 o'clock, when the merry crowd turned their way homeward.
The Chemist and Druggist in reporting the proceedings of the British Pharmaceutical conference notes the presence of a "distinguished visitor Prof. Sayre, dean of the faculty of pharmacy of the University of Kansas." The president bid Prof. Sayre a hearty welcome and asked him to come up to the platform. Prof. Sayre walked to the platform amidst applause and said that when he left the States on June 4 he planned to be present at the conference as the proceedings had a direct bearing upon the revision of the United States pharmacopoea. That the revision had been going on for two years and by the time he returned to America he hoped that part of the work would have gone to press. He thanked the meeting for the welcome extended him and hoped that the meeting would prove pleasurable and profitable.
