The Bureau has written to a number of eminent lecturers with a view to getting one of them for the unfilled place on the course. Among them are Henry George, John Fiske, Washington Gladden, Prof. Richard G. Moulton, of Chicago University; the eminent African explorer, M. Paul B. DuChailla and Dr. Parkhurst. Course tickets have already been placed on sale at the University and the High School. The members of the University faculty, teachers of the High School and students of these two institutions have been given two days in which to purchase tickets, after which period any one may purchase them. The course tickets will be sold for $2.00. Let it be remembered that for those holding these tickets the chart for reserved seats will be opened twenty-four hours before it is thrown open to the general public. Only six hundred tickets will be sold. MANDRAGORA. Last week's issue of the Courier gave an interesting account of a very rare drug, which has been recently added to our materia medica cabinet. Since there has been a great deal of speculation on the part of those who have seen it, as to whether it ever grew so symmetrically, and on the part of those who have not seen it, as to whether the description was not overdrawn, the pharmacy department wishes to fully indorse the statements of last week, and to add a few words by way of distinction between this oriental mandrake and the mandrake sold in our shops today The mandragora is unknown as a medicine in the U. S., but is a native of southern Europe. It is a fleshy tuberous root known to botanists as Atropa Mandragora. (Nat. Ord. Solonaceae). It possesses the same narcotic and poisonous properties as belladonna and other members of the nightshade family. The names of these two plants bear a certain analogy in their derivation. Belledonna, in Italian, means handsome lady. Mandragora is so called from the striking resemblance which the root bears to the figure of a man. We learn from a work on ancient pharmacy that mandragora gained a great reputation as a "lone pation" during the period just before the reformation, and that hunters and dealer often carved it into shapes resembling little men and women. To enhance the price it was said to grow under the gallows of a victim of a judicial murder, and could be dug only at great risk of life, since its horrible shrieks on being drawn from the earth, might strike the hearer dead. Pling says "Whoever would dig it must avoid having the wind against him, and when he digs should face the direction of the setting sun." The mandrake of the United States Pharmacopocia is designated as the rhizome and rootlets of Podophyllum peltatum (Natural Order Berberidaceal). It appears in small cylindrical pieces about one-fifth of an inch thick, and is known by several common names, such as may apple, wild lemon and vegetable mercury. It grows in rich shady places throughout the United States and has scarcely any other use in medicine than that of a cholagogue cathartic. The question of whether or not nature has been assisted in developing the specimen we possess does not in any way detract from its value FOOT BALL. The foot ball practice of the past two weeks has had a marked effect in the development of players. In fact this has been the main object of the practice. So far, there has been but little systematized work, but several new men have made a worthy showing. The main duty now is to find suitable end men. If this can be accomplished K. U. is sure of a winning team. A large number of men are working hard for these positions and it is quite probable that competent men will be developed. It will need every effort to get the team in condition for the game at Denver on Oct. 15. This means that every player must be on hand promptly and exercise care in drilling, such as will give him a clear understanding of every rule, play, or signal that may be given. It is of the utmost importance that every man should have a clear under standing of duty in every play. Let team work be the chief factor. Individual plays count but little. The most of the time from now on will be taken up in practicing plays and signals. The team is not yet definitely named and will not be until shortly before the first game. However, it can be said that the man who secures a position will do so by hard and persistent work. ___ The question "what is the matter" addressed to some athletic young men who wore a gloomy countenance yesterday, would have brought forth a great tale of woe, about some awkwark fellows who had broken one of the so-called working-boots; thus leaving only one boat availabe and consequently, creating great fear in the breasts of those interested in boating, that there would be no boat races next spring. This fear is not unfounded and what a shame that, with one of the best mile racing courses in the United States, there are not any better boats to be obtained. The Athletic association has given both the base ball and foot ball teams a start, and it is its duty to do as much for those interested in boating by providing two good racing boats for their use. Our Representatives in Tennis. The tennis tournament, held on the West Lawrence courts last Friday and Saturday, was a success in every particular. Those who took part in it played well. The most noticeable feature of the playing was, perhaps, the great improvement shown by hereetofore almost unknown players in their work of last Friday and Saturday. From this it is evident that the University will not be left without a champion after the present crack players leave school the coming spring. The playing was almost always close and sharp. Often from fifteen to twenty games were necessary to decide the winner of a set. In doubles, the most interesting match was probably that between Professors Canfield and Kellogg and Whitman and Bedell. The "Faculty" did not have sufficient endurance, however, and Whitman and Bedell won after a long struggle. The final maten was between Whitman and Bedell and Sherman and Alden. The result of it was that the latter gained the privilege of representing the University in doubles. In singles, Whitman won with comparative ease. It has been brought to the notice of the tennis commitee quite forecibly during this tournament, that it is very necessary to have courts prepared on the Athletic Field, were they will be under the controll of the Athletic Association. It is to be hoped that the committee will be able to accomplish this in the near future. The lecture course tickets will be put on sale soon. They will be made out in better form this year. There will be a detachable coupon for each lecture which will be transferable. These coupons can be cashed in any time that an engagement is not filled and a rebate proportional to the number of entertainments will be paid to the holder. Every student should be prepared to purchase a ticket before they are place on sale to the public. Our Glove department is one of the most comprehensive in the United States.

The Annual board has nearly completed its canvass for the purpose of securing the moral and financial backing of the members of the faculty for the proposed Annual. With hardly an exception the board has received from those canvassed not only the most hearty encouragement, but also promises of very liberal financial support. It is proposed to complete this canvass in a few days by asking every student in each of the departments of the University to subscribe for at least one copy. It is absolutely necessary that the advance subscription list be a large one, since the publication of a really good Annual is an undertaking of such magnitude that it can only be justified in case the students as well as the members of the faculty are willing to take a practical interest in it from the beginning. The main features of the proposed Annual have already been set forth in the COURIER. Every department, society, club or organization of any kind is to be represented in its pages. To each certain pages will be devoted, and each will be expected to co-operate with the board in securing for those pages such matter as will most appropriately describe and represent it. One of the few distinctively literary features of the Annual will be a prize story, to consist of not less than 1,500 or more than 2,000 words, and to deal with some feature of University life. The prize is to consist of ten dollars worth of books, to be chosen by the winner from certain lists which will soon be made out and which will be made known to any application to the board or any member of it. All stories must be handed in by November 14. Each story must be accompanied by a sealed envelope containing the name of the author and the title of the story. All manuscripts of stories will be handed to a faculty committee to be chosen by the Annual board, and the story pronounced best by this committee will be awarded the prize and published in the annual. Further particulars in regard to this matter may be had of any of the following members of the board: R. R. Whitman, Alberta Corbin, James Owen, H. R. Linville, or R. D. O'Leary. A similar prize of ten dollars worth of books will be offered for the best University song, to consist of not less than three nor more than five stanzas, and a chorus, each stanza to contain not less than two nor more than six lines. All manuscript of songs must be handed in by November 15, and accompanied as in the case of the stories, by a sealed envelope containing the name of the writer and the title of the song. These manuscripts will also be handed to a committee chosen from the faculty, and the song to which this committee awards the prize will be published in the Annual. Any student of the University may compete for either or both of these prizes, and it is hoped that enough will do so to make these two composition among the most interesting features of the Annual.

Midsummer Night's Dream. An opportunity will be given next Friday night for students and others to attend this play at the Grand Opera House in Topeka where it will be given by Miss Georgia Brown, with a splendid cast, and with over one hundred children as fairies. The stage of the Grand is one of the largest in the west, and affords ample room for scenic display. New scenery will be painted by Rohe. Prof. Blake will operate the electric lights, and an orchestra of the best musicians in Topeka will render the complete Mendelsonm music. It will be well worth the trip. Round trip tickets are on sale at the Santa Fe city office at $1.50 for balcony seats, $1.75 for the parquette. The very latest styles and new est creations are always to be found upon our shelves.

A novel wager on the result of the coming election was made in St. Augustine, Fla., a few days ago. The parties to the agreement are an ex-mayor and a real estate agent. In case of Cleveland's election the ex-mayor is to push the real estate agent in a wheelbarrow on the sea wall from the fort to Central basin, and in case of Harrison's election the real estate agent is to do likewise to the ex-mayor. The date of the performance will be fixed so as to allow the throngs of visitors next winter to witness it.

Burned his barn to kill a snake. Some time ago, when Choulet's managerie passed through Crawford county, a boa constrictor of medium size escaped from its cage. As time passed the incident was forgotten. Early on Wednesday J. D. Doolittle entered his barn and saw the monster in the hayloft. Doolittle had lost several shoats, of which he could find no clew. Their disappearance was explained by the presence of the snake. Seeing the reptile Mr. Doolittle retreated, and after releasing his horses from the barn he applied a match and burned the structure and contents to the ground. The mow was fall of new hay. After the fire had spent its force the ribs of the reptile were found in the ashes, and they were nearly as large as the ribs of a 100-pound hog. Mr. Doolittle says that he feels worse from the effect which the snake's vicious eyes had upon him than he does over the loss of his barn and contents. The contents of the barn were the principal loss, as the structure was an old one and was soon to be replaced.-Milwaukee Wisconsin.

Instead of regular chapel exercises Wednesday morning, Chancellor Snow delivered an instructive and interesting address to the students on "Health in Student Life." There was a meeting of those interested in forming a University brass band Wednesday afternoon. Material for such an organization is plentiful in the University. The selection of Rev. Dr. Cordley of Lawrence to make the dedication address at the opening of Fairmount college at Wichita, was a mighty good send off for that institution.

He will still be the youngest college president in the country, while he is rather too mature to figure as a boy preacher. The young ladies of Kappa. Alpha Theta fraternity will tender a reception to Mrs. Prof. Hodder this aftetnoon at the residence of Wm. T. Sinclair in West Lawrence. A large number of invitations has been issued and the reception will be the society event of the week. The Courier extends a hearty welcome to the Students Journal and hopes that its life will be much longer than similar experiments which have been tried in the past. The Students Journal. A Fiend's Work. Last Monday night while returning from foot ball practice, W. E. Higgins and John Cracraft were shot by Fred Bassett. Their injuries are not fatal. The shooting was unprovoked. It seems that the young men were crossing Bassetts premises and were told to get off, but not hearing the command they made no haste to do so. Bassett then went into the house, procured his gun and without warning fired upon them. He is now in jail. Adelphic. The following is the program for the next meeting of the Adelphic literary society: Declaration—Mr. Farley. Essay—Mr. Miller. Talk on Current Topic—Mr. Scott. Essay=Mr. Gear.

Besides the two other social gatherings the Phi Gams gave a very pleasant hop in Merchants Rank hall. The air was quite cool, and the music of the Riverside Mandolin Club seemed more charming than ever. The special features of the evening were the entire absence of formality, the "ragging" of Perry, and the refreshments which were served throughout the evening. Kansas Academy of Science. The following list of professors and addresses will represent the University at the meeting of the Kansas Academy of Science at Atchison next week: No. 5 Prof. Williston—Mobrara Cretoceous.

It was with much pleasure that about fifteen couples of University young people accepted invitations to an auction party given by Misses Mattie and Mary Snow at their home last Friday night. The sale of favors proved very exciting and if the "money" had been more plentiful some of the packages would have been sold at fabulous prices. Mr, Erine Case showed himself to be an experienced and competent auctioneer. At about 10:30 dainty refreshments were served, after which the merry party broke up, all declaring that they had never had a better time.

After describing some associate astronomical observatories, the professor referred at length to the similarities and dissimilarities existing between Mars and our own earth. The variation of the color of the Mars atmosphere, as seen through a powerful telescope, the marking and the shape of continents, together with the proportion of sea and land, the atmosphere and snow limits, and the canals from 3,000 to 4,000 miles long, were the principal topics. Prof. E. H. S. Bailey also read a paper on the method of liquifying oxygen gas, large quantities of which have under a high pressure and at a low temperature been reduced to a liquid form. The practical benefit of this discovery was discussed. The last person on the program was H. J. Withington who read a paper on the Columbian Exposition. Withington having been employed during the last summer on an engineering corps in the World's Fair grounds, interested his auditors with his description of the large water supply, electric light plant, machinery hall, administration building and the building of manufacturing and the liberal arts with occasional allusions to other points of secondary interest. HISTORICAL SEMINARY Last Friday afternoon the members of the Historical Seminary discussed the thirteenth century universities, namely, Oxford, University of Paris, Cordova and Bologna. The university of the past differed widely from the institution of the present day. There were generally from 15,000 to 20,000 students in attendance at one school. The buildings were poor and low; in appearance not inharmonious with the filth and sluggishness of the mediaeval towns, in which they were located. The students huddled together in overcrowded, poorly ventilated lodgings, quarreling, drinking or gambling or begged along the streets. The instructors, as poor as the students themselves, were dependent upon this begging, turbulent student-body for support. Notwithstanding all this, pupil and teacher alike manifested a commendable earnestness for study. The early struggles of these thirteenth century schools were intense, and it was no infrequent occurrence for the University boys to become a surging mob, even defying the authority not only of their own head schoolman but also the power of civil officers. For this reason the universities were so heartily despised by magistrate and bailiff. At lrst securing freedom from municipal control the schools sent out from their walls ministers of the law and counsellors of church and state. The tendency of University instruction was to arouse a more democratic spirit, which threatened feudalism and tyranny, and to establish an era of intellectual inquiry which shook the peace of the church. Education became more generally spread, the censorship was combatted, science was revived and the development of individualism was given a long needed impetus. "A PROF, F. H. BLAKMAR, of the Kansas State University, is reported as saying in a recent lecture to his class, as he denounced the pension system, that; the men who staid at home deserved pensions as much as the men who went to the front. This stay-at-home enemy of the old soldier should be let out. Kansas has no use for such unpatriotic citizens, especially as a teacher of our young. Even Canfield had better sense than Black mar seems to be favored with."—Olathe Mirror. It is certainly very curious, to say the least, how such a report as the above could have gained credence. No! Professor Blackmar is not a "stay-at-home enemy of the old soldier," but a loyal, true hearted, "intensely American," American citizen. Upon more than one occasion has the writer of this article heard him present and not without some feeling, his expressions of gratitude for the men who stood between us and rebel bullets, and more than this, that he never did and never shall begrudge the veteran of war any scanty recompensation which our government can render for the valiant services so deeply given. Prof. Blackmar is not a man of narrow sympathies and selfish mind, but a young man of broad and liberal culture, a northern man born and bred, a patriot in the fullest sense of that word; a patriot who in his devotion for the stars and stripes, in his earnestness for the welfare of his country is surpassed by no man. While entertaining no malice for brave boys who wore the gray, while believing old animosities should be forgotten, and longing for the time when no sectional differences shall make a north and a south, our professor also believes that the deeds of daring and valor of Union soldiers should never be effaced from the annals of our American history; that the thousands of little mounds which here and there dot the fields of battle should not fail to evoke a feeling of sympathy for the widowed and fatherless and admiration for the bravery of those who fell. No, my dear editor of the Mirror, our professor has a deep veneration for the veteran, and let no man say that Prof. Blackmar is an enemy of the old soldier. In the name of justice to our school we resent it. You have been misinformed. You are mistaken, and in conclusion permit me to say that you can well entrust your young to the kindly and liberal instruction of such men as Kansas' Blackmar or even Nebraska's Cowfield. You and your off-spring and your off spring's state will be the better for it. We trust that you will feel yourself honor bound to correct your mistake; our University's interest and the good of the great state of Kansas demand it. COMMENDABLE. The organization of a college republican club Saturday evening was a step in the right direction, as was also the organization of a college Weaver and Cleveland club. Wednesday evening. Each club has taken for its motto "Patriotism and not Partizanship," and each taken for its object the open discussion and consideration of the principles underlying the different political parties. Such discussion by intelligent young men can not fail of accomplishing good. The people are demanding reforms and it is fitting that all the best talent and close study of careful students should be lent in helping to solve the questions of how that reform shall be brought about and the abuses swept away. Nothing can be lost in this movement and much may be gained. It is, indeed, auspicious that the thinking and intelligent young men of the land are showing an active interest in affairs where intelligence is most needed. THE COURIER desires to briefly express its admiration for the becoming manner in which Messrs. Field & Gibb fitted up their north and east window the morning after the death of Alfred, Lord Tennyson. A bust of the poet-laureate and the window in which it was placed were draped in heavy mourning. As the morning sun shown in full and bright upon his many works skilfully arranged about the bust one could hardly fail recalling Tennyson's own Beautiful lines: "Oh look! the sun begin's to rise! the heavens are in a glow. heavens are in a glow. He shines upon a hundred hills, and all of them I know. And there I move no longer now, and there the light may shine— Wild flowers in the valley for other hands than mine." "Oh sweet and strange it seems to me, that 'ere this day is done. The voice that now is speaking, may be beyond the sun— Forever and forever, with those just souls and true— And what is life that we should moan? why make we such ado?" Mr. C. E. Edwords, a friend of the University and well known in college circles has been made Edito in-chief of the Kansas City Journal. Mr. Edwords is a talented man and well equipped for the position of responsibility which has been assigned him. The Courier wishes to express through the medium of its columns the hearty congratulations of both faculty and students. SCIENCE has again triumphed. A new system of "guage" railway has been invented, which will make three now in use, viz: narrow guage, broad guage and "mortgage." POLITICAL CLUBS. "To BE or not to be"—chapel rhetoricals. As suggested in a former issue of the Courier, several of the prominent young republicans of the University met last Saturday and amid great enthusiasm organized the Kansas University Republican club. All the officers of the organization are smart energetic men but above all, they are "rustlers." President John A. Rush has just informed the Courier that the Hon. John J. Ingalls who speaks in Lawrence tomorrow evening, appears under the auspices of the club. In lieu of this fact every republican in the University should turn out and aid the club in giving the renown gentleman a right royal welcome. The University may well deem this action of Mr. Ingalls an honor to itself. Let everyone be on hand tomorrow evening to join in the procession and show the renown senator some genuine University enthusiasm. It is not often that the Courier finds it necessary to vindicate an attack made upon one of our professors by any of the papers through out the state, since as a rule the matter is not generally of serious importance. But the attack on Prof. Blackmar by the Olathe Mirror, is so absolutely erroneous that the Courier could not let it go by unnoticed. THE death of Lord Tennyson casts a gloom over the poetic world and leaves England without a first class poet. Tennyson's name has become familiar to every English speaking family and his death makes one feel that he has lost a true and loving friend. "One by one the roses fail." The College of Emporia is think ing of organizing a foot ball team. Right you are. New millinery.

To the Students of the University: To the Students of the University: Students of the last year or two will easily recall the attempts which have been made to maintain a University lecture course. Last year for reasons familiar to all, a protest was made by a portion of the student body, against the continuation of what was asserted to be a private monopoly of public interests. A compromise between the forces involved resulted from this protest. It was agreed that the profits arising from the sale of course tickets should constitute a fund upon which to found a lecture bureau which would provide for the students at actual cost, a course of entertainments of the highest grade. Many loyal students made serious sacrifices in order that such a representative organization might be established. The outcome of this benevolent effort was a fund of a little more than one hundred dollars. The Oratorical association actuated by the same public spirit offered to contribute its annual surplus to the same cause. The existing lecture bureau was organized upon a plan which it was thought, would give due representation to parties interested, prevent factional controversies, maintain public confidence, receive the requisite financial standing and ensure the performance of the numerous duties connected with the presentation of such a course. It has arranged a course of entertainments, with reference to the varied interests and tastes of those whom it felt obliged to serve. Music, orateary, literature, statesmanship, dramatic art, and scholarship are all given a place. While entertainment was one of the objects sought in making the selections the members of the bureau have kept steadily in mind what they conceive to be their special duty, that is, to bring within our reach such speakers as our unfortunate location has formerly deprived us. The bureau is prepared to add to the course the name of John Fisks, the eminent lecturer, historian and philosopher, when it is assured that he is really wanted by the public. Now, after having done their work to the best of their ability, having incurred a financial responsibility of about twelve hundred dollars, the members of the bureau trust that the students will accept the benefits of their labors. It is a source of great disappointment to be, personally devoted as I am and have been to the idea of a permanent co-operative lecture course, which shall be a source of refinement and culture, to learn that after a ten days sale, not to exceed a hundred students have purchased tickets. I can not think that those who are working in this movement for the welfare of the students and University are on a fool's erand. This year's course will in all probility, be made secure by the fact that the citizens of Lawrence know a good thing; nevertheless the University Lecture Bureau can not defend its own existence unless it may be of some service to many students. In view of the above facts, as the representative elected by the students last year and as one deeply interested in the lasting success of the undertaking, I appeal to the students to take advantage of the opportunity presented and preserve the organization in a purely cooperative basis. OLIN TEMPLIN. THE DENVER GAME. Westward the "stars" of the University take their way. The foot ball team has gone to Denver and with it goes the kindest wishes of the student body. What the result of tomorrow's game will be, no one can consciently predict. If it was a question of team work, physical strength and activity, no doubt all would feel very confident, but it is not. The ultimate result of the game depends ugn endurance. The atmosphere of Denver is just one-third lighter than that of Lawrence and this alone is a greater disadvantage than all others combined. However the Courier will predict that the crimson will not be defeated.The Denver team has every advantage it could ask and if success should crown the boys "in crimson" they will be met at the train on their return by a brass band and and eight hundred students. Hurrah! for our foot ball team. REMARKS BY CHANCELLOR The chancellor made a few remarks last Wednesdayday morning during the time allotted to chapel exercises, on the subject "The Student's Health." He spoke of the careless way in which the student, in years gone by, attended to the physical development of his body, and its disastrous results. "He, himself, when he entered William Jewell College, was in poor health, but had devoted two hours each day to physical training and as a result, was in much better health when he completed his college course than when he began. Have George Hollingbery, the tailor, make your dress suit. Mind and body should be am formly trained and developed. To pay entire attention to the development of the mind is to do so at the expense of the body. Formerly the puny, the weak, and all who were unable to do manual labor were alone thought fit for a college training. But that time has past. Above all be careful of your food and especially the water you drink, for in this is often hidden the germ of death. Take at least eight hours of sleep, and if necessary, more. There are a few men who can get along with four hours and others five and six hours, but they are the exceptions. You may rest assured none of us can do very well with less than eight or nine hours.

Last Monday afternoon a small but enthusiastic crowd of Baker students could be seen taking their way to the West Lawrence tennis courts with the expectation of seeing their representatives ingloriously defeated in tennis. But, oh! what a surprise! Their players were in such good condition and put up such a strong game that the K. U. boys were not in it. The score of each of the five sets was 6-4, Baker winning the 1st, 4th and 5th and K. U. the 2nd and 3rd. Kane and Toomey represented Baker and Sherman and Alden K. U. A College Republican Club. A college republican club was organized Saturday night at an enthusiastic meeting of students in K. of P. hall. The object of the club is the discussion and consideration of the principles underlying the different political parties, believing that the open discussion of all questions affecting the people from a social and political standpoint should be the object of every citizen. Patriotism and not partisanship is the motto of this club. A permanent organization was affected by the adoption of a constitution and bylaws, and the selection of J. A. Rush, president. E. E. Hopkins, vice president; W. H. Piatt, secretary; W. W. Reno, treasurer, W. Kinzie, sergeant-at-arms; Rush, Ellis and Steele executive committee The club has issued invitations to John J. Ingalls, Governor Foraker and other prominent speakers to deliver addresses in the city under the auspices of the club. Lawrence, or the state of Kansas, or somebody, ought to construct a street railway connecting the town with the University, or build a dormitory and boarding house on the top of Mount Oread. It is hard enough to climb the hill of knowledge without toiling up the slopes of a miniature mountain every day. —Kansas City Star, The first literary number of the Washburn Argo-Reporter will be issued today.

It must be cheering news to Massachusetts farmers, and especially to those living near the infested districts, to learn from the gypsy moth commission that there is a gradual drawing in of the boundaries where the caterpillars are to be found this year. None have been found in Marblehead or in Charlestown and but few in Beverly, Lexington and some other towns, and in those places where they are not widely distributed but a few are found, which indicates that the natural enemies, birds, parasites, etc., have destroyed either the eggs or the young caterpillars.—Lewiston Journal. The highest mortality in the police department of New York city last year was among the surgeons, three of whom died during the year. Only two roundsmen and two sergeants died, the total number of deaths being forty-eight. One reason why the death rate in the department in so low is that the officers are retired after twenty years' service at their option, or for age.

An Exciting Game of Foot Ball One man Injured-How the Boys Played-Notes. A more perfect, ideal day for a game of foot ball could not be wished for then was last Saturday, at Denver. The sun shown down brightly and the Athletic grounds, though a little heavy from recent rains were in splendid condition. By 2:30 o'clock a large and enthusiastic crowd of five thousand people had assembled upon the grounds, and all these with perhaps a few exceptions wore the crimson and black, the D. A C's colors. The grand stand was literally packed and around the ropes were hundreds who could not be accommodated. Streamers of crimson and black, tin horns and tin pans, tom-toms and cymballs were only a few of the instruments made use of by nearly every one in that large and restless audience. When the brawny Kansans, as they were styled, put in their appearance at 2:45 o'clock, they were met, much to their surprise, by an enthusiastic Rock Chalk. This of course was not expected and when inquiries were made it was discovered that a number of students from the School of Mines, at Golden, Col., had come down to the game for the express purpose of cheering the University boys on to victory. How they did yell! It seemed that they could not tire. All through the exciting game they cried Rock Chalk and did their utmost to cheer our boys on to victory. The Denver team looked winners when they appeared on the field, being far heavier and seemingly better fitted for the affray. The game was called promptly at three o'clock. The crimson won the toss for position and chose the west side, forcing the Denver boys to face the sun, the Kansans lost however, when they tossed to see who would get the ball and Archie Hogg, referee, placed it upon the Denver rush line, then the work began in earnest. The Denverites formed a V with English as center and—the game was on. Twenty yards were made before the wedge was broken and from the crowd rang out in defiant tones, Rock Chalk from the boys who hailed from Golden. Slowly the living mass of humanity pulled itself together and formed in line; Field received the ball, bucked the center and gained five yards, then Spaulding received the ball, made a rush around the right end, but was downed by Shepard. and promptly; no gain. Again Field receives the ball, bucks the center but makes no gain. Spalding tries again around the end, but fails, Shepard, Mendell and Champlain falling upon him like tigers on a single prey; it is at this stage of the game and here that Spalding fractures his collar bone, Five yards not being gained by the Denvers, Kansas takes the ball; Champlain bucks the center three consecutive times, gaining 10 yards; then Matteson goes around the right end for 20 yards, Mendell tries left end but gains little; again Matteson makes a run for 25 yards, Piatt brakes the center and gains 3 yards, Champlain goes between tackle and guard for 2 more and Kinzie then takes the ball over the line. Piatt kicks goal. Time 15 minutes. Denver again forms a V, rushes at K. S. U. and are downed before eight yards are made. Then follows a quick succession of rapid plays in which Field and DeWitt figure most prominently and in just 10 minutes the ball is forced over Denver's goal line and a goal is kicked. The game stands six and six. Kinzie then leads off and makes 35 yards before being downed, Champlain goes between tackle and guard for five yards but loses the ball in a second attempt. Denver kicks the ball, which is returned by Piatt, Kinzie gets it; Champlain lines out four more yards and Mendell takes the ball around left end and over the goal line, Piatt fails to kick a goal. Score, 10 to 6. Deuver forms another V, gains 7 yards but fails to gain five more in three downs and Kansas takes the ball. Hammill and Mattson make a hole as usual in the Denver ranks and Champlain secures 15 yards. Matteson takes the ball and loses 5 yards, Champlain gains it back; a fou is claimed and Denver begins taking the ball up the field; DeWitt punts, Piatt gets the ball and the hearts of the Denver admirers grow heavy as they see it steadily advance to the K. U. goal line. Mendell makes a great run, gains 22 yards, Champlain adds eight yards to his credit, Mattson 3 and Piatt punts and loses the ball when time is called for the first half. The big crowd is getting anxious and impatient. The fifteen minutes of rest is up, Kansas takes the ball, forms a gridiron, gains 12 yards, Piatt adds five to that, Champlain five more, Mattson loses 3 yards, Champlain gains it back. Foul is claimed and Denver gets the ball, Field loses it immediately to K. U. and onward the leather speeds; Champlain gains 5 yards, Mendell nothing, Champlain 3 yards, Kinzie around right end for five more, and again 5 more and still 4 more by the same route, Champlain bucks the center for 4 yards and Kinzie scores a touch down, Piatt kicks a goal. Time 20 minutes. Denver sticks to the V, gains 9 yards, McCann gains 2 yards around right end; tries it again but loses. Field bucks the center for 25 yards, a deafening roar resounds and vibrates through the air; Denver stock is advancing in value. Burger goes around the left end for 7 yards and Spalding tries it around right end, but is promptly down by Shepard, the invinceable. DeWitt kicks the ball away over near goal line; a wild race follows in which Williamson gets the ball; the teams line up within two feet of Denver's goal line, Kinzie makes 8 yards, Champlain 5 yards, Kinzie 8 yards, a criss-cross follows with no gain and Denver gets the ball, on foul, which she losses by not gaining her five yards. Kansas again begins her forward march and after a series of plays, loses the ball. Denver tries to send the ball around left end and Dumn distinguishes himself by a fine tacker; Field tries it and is downed by a magnificent tacker on Williamson's part, 10 yards behind the rush line. Denver is getting disheartened. DeWitt punts for 30 yards, Piatt sends it back 20; Champlain guins five yards through that same hole that Hammill and Matteson makes; Kinzie makes 5 more, Piatt bucks the center for five yards and two Denverites are hurt in the scrimmage. Mendall makes 8 yards, Champlain 3 more and still three more and then 3; Mattson runs ten yards and scores a touch down, Piatt fails to kick goal. Time was called before another touch down could be made, the score standing Kansas 20, D. A.C. 6. The game was very exciting all through. The Denver boys might have been more genteel but the game is ours and we shall say nothing. NOTES. You simply out played us—Fillmore. Kinzie, Shepard and Williamson received some bbd bruises. The Golden boys made things lively. Three of the Denver boys were hurt. Mrs. C. D. Moore sent Capt. Kinzie a fine basket of flowers. The "subs" didn't play ball, but they made themselves known. Mendell and Matteson distinguished themselves by their fine runs. Shorty, that hole maker, said he had a not-on to quit playing because "his man" would slap him in the face and he couldn't return the compliment. Harold Barnes and Miss Edith Grubb witnessed the game. K. S. U, and the School of Mines exchanged compliments after the game. Prof. Hopkins made the boys a short talk before the game, which was well heeded. The "corn-fed huskers" received many a warm congratulation, after the game. Williamson made a grand stand play by downing Field, back of the rush line. Look at that man Chaplain buck the rush line—was a quite common phrase during the game. D. A, C. Ra, Ra. Kansas get your hair cut, Ha, ha, ha; was the yell used by some of the crowd. Language Conference. The meeting of the Language conference held in the Greek room Wedensday afternoon was well attended. Much interest is shown in this new club which will probably be one of the most successful organizations in the University.

Kansas City PROFESSOR BANARD, who discovered the fifth satellite of Jupiter, has been invited by the authorities of the Chicago University to take charge of the department of astronomy. An exchange discusses briefly the question, "Should actresses marry" and decides in the affirmative, providing they can earn enough money to support a husband. THE following notice was posted on the bulletin board last Friday. Strayed, an umbrella with the letters branded upon it, W. S. W The Courier has been informed by one of the toot ball team that the same umbrella was seen by him, wandering around aimlessly near Pikes Peak. SINCE the Chicago University has been establishud a large number of the most prominent institutions have materially increased the salaries of their professors. Ann Arbor has raised the salary of its faculty from three to five hundred per chair. Will the regents of the Kansas University please make a note of this? NOTHING short of a Yale, Harvard, or Princeton team can score against them—Copinger, in the Denver Sun, speaking about the Denver team. Well; K. S. U. has scored against them and that with ease, but we are a little too modest to claim the honor which the above paragraph would indicate that we should. PROF. HOPKINS' resignation as manager of the foot ball team took effect last Monday. It is unfortunate that the professor can't find time to look after the affairs of the team. Under his management it has become famous, so much so that the members can with impunity wear a badge bearing the ensign: "Never Defeated," Prof. Hopkins has been a grand success in his management of the team; not only have Iowa, Missouri and Kansas colleges gone down before the victorious crimson, but Colorado has just been added to the list. It is to be hoped that the next manager will be the professor's peer. Why would it not be well for the officers of the foot ball team to make a date with some eastern team? K. S. U. has so far proven herself worthy of such a peer. We have met and virtually defended all the teams of any note in the west and there is no good reason why we should not look further east for some game or games in the future. This would not only be a good advertisement for the University, but it would bring the east and west in closer relationship. Perhaps we would be beaten, and perhaps not, but even though we were, a great deal could be learned and the University team would be a much stronger and better team for the experience. Why not, then, try to extend our conquests east-ward? LECTURE BUREAU. The lecture course offered by the present management of the lecture bureau has been fully appreciated by the students, and as a result, all the tickets offered for sale have been taken by the student body. The present course will cost just twelve hundred and fifty dollars. This, to say the least, is indicative of the fact that the officers of the bureau are desirous of giving an instructive and first class course. James Fisk is the latest addition. The management will soon offer a series of one hundred and twenty-five tickets for lectures only, the price being one dollar and twenty-five cents. By this means those who have not been desirous of buying tickets for the concerts may have the opportunity of hearing five good lectures for a moderate sum Every student should take advantage of this opportunity if he has not bought the other series of tickets. The instruction and benefits to be received are invaluable and one will never miss the exceedingly palpable price paid for the same. A NEEDS NECESSITY. The necessity of extending the water mains, or at least the necessity of having water upon the Athletic grounds for the convenience of those who practice daily there, is becoming more and more apparent each day. None feel this want more keenly just now than the foot ball team. To say why this want is felt keenly would be a waste of words. After practice one is compelled to make a detour to his room to prepare his toilet or go to supper be-mattered with dust and drenched with perspiration. This is not doing the members of the team justice. The Courier does not wish to be misunderstood in the matter, however; it is not the intention to score any one, nor does it think that the officers of the athletic board are entirely responsible for this oversight. However, that does not make the necessity less imperative, of having water upon the grounds. No one will doubt for a moment that it is absolutely necessary and especially one who makes use of the grounds. The Courier was informed some time ago that a certain gentleman had made an agreement to dig a well for the use of the right-of-way across the field. Why not hurry up this same gentleman? Perhaps when matters are sifted down, some one after all is responsible who is connected officially with the association. True, a few of these things must come on gradually and we can't very well expect to have all the conveniences without some delay. But to delay getting water upon the field is a mistake. Better delay building a fence; or at least painting it. The foot ball or base ball men can practice whether the grounds are fenced in or not; but if they are compelled to walk a mile and intrude upon one every evening, even at the risk of carrying a few buck shot away, after a while there will be no necessity of athletic grounds and all connected therewith. By all means, the authorities should look after this matter. It will not cost much to have the water main extended and then our foot ball team, feeling that their wants are looked after and especially this very important one, will practice with renewed energy. A UNIVERSITY BUTTON. For some time past the idea of adopting a University button has been considered and commented upon by enthusiastics friends of the University. While the consensus of opinion seems to be decidedly in favor of the adoption of some prominent button or emblem, yet so far nothing has been accomplished. Now in order to bring this matter directly before the students, the best and at any rate the most direct way would be for the athletic association to take the matter in hand. This association is most directly concerned and under their province the adoption of such an emblem most directly falls. It is most sincerely hoped the association will take the matter in hand, for if it once champions it, a University Button is assured. It matters but little what kind of an emblem is selected; anything appropriate. But that it may be so, the athletic crimson should be made prominent. With so many famous foot ball games approaching, the need of some such emblem becomes not only apparent, but almost a necessity, and the Courier earnestly hopes that the matter will be pushed at once. From all accounts, the Iowa, Nebraska and Missouri foot ball teams are in excellent trim and no doubt will give th University team a stronger struggle than last year. This being true, and much being at stake so to speak, steps should be taken to place the team in perfect training. How can this be better accomplished than through the medium of a training club? Of course this would cost some more than a down town restaurant would charge, and at the same time a few of the members could not afford it, but the solution of such a problem is very simple. Each member could pay into the club treasury the amount which his board is costing where he now boards and the athletic association would certainly be willing to pay the balance. To be sure, the first thing to do is to establish the club. Prof. Shepard says it would be an excellent idea to have all the men of the regular eleven, and four or five substitutes board at the same table where they could talk foot ball, discuss points and plays, and by so doing become enthused with the proper spirit, and at the same time get the proper training. This neither would interfere with the work at the University. CRITICISM. LATER—The COURIIR has been informed, as we go to press, that such an organization will soon be perfected. Columbian Dedication Sale and Opening of our Enlarged Store Room Commences Thursday, Oct. 20. Dry Goods, Cloaks, etc., at Low Prices. The strong points as well as the weak ones which were most apparent in the recent foot ball game at Denver, might be summarized as follows: The Kansas team showed great ability to break through the opponents rush line and to guard the man sent through, but showed lack of practice in gaining around the ends. The interference on the whole was good but critical times, deficient. Since from ten to twenty-five yards were gained each time the gridiron play was attempted, it marks quite well, the ability to make this play. The half-backs put up a strong game with no attempt at grand stand playing, but it might well be said, that they were inclined to wait, instead of meeting the ball on the run. The tackling was splendid and deserved applause. Perhaps one of the great faults of the team, and a critical one is a tendency of the center men to play apart, which results in the opponents breaking through the line too often; also the tackles. one at least, has a tendency to fumble the ball and the other seems too lose his head. The Denver team put up a strong game but were slow, their team work poor, and the tackling of men, through the rush line, likewise. They failed to take advantage of their superior weight, and right here the Courier wishes to correct the erroneous statement that the Kansans were heavier, for they were not. However, the game was well played and without any great errors to speak of in more then passing terms. Kansas City.

THE DENVER TRIP. & Co, How the Team was Treated—a Continuous Stream of Ovations—the Sights of Denver, the Return. The Denver game is a thing of the past and long will it be remembered by those so fortunate as to have shared in its pleasures and triumphs. Not a better time could have been enjoyed by "a King of feasts and flowers and revel," then was enjoyed by the foot ball team and substitutes who left Lawrence on Friday noon last. Not only was the scenery along the road a source of pleasure, but the treatment received at the hands of the hospitable, generous and enthusiastic members of the Denver Atheletic club was beyond description. Words cannot express the feeling of kindness which the boys have for them. Perhaps a few words about the trip would not be amiss in the columns of the COURIER. It was Friday noon, the boys having eaten a lunch at Chris Eppley's, gathered at the Santa Fe depot and boarded the 12 o'clock train. Arriving at Topeka, they got out on the platform; passed the ball for pass time, the next stop off of any importance being at Newton, where supper was served. A restless night was before them however, especially for our friend "Shorty," who, being six feet, two inches in height, did not rest well in a bunk five feet in length, it is said that he crowded his feet through a window glass. Morning dawned and found us in a land of snow. Arriving at Chico, the train was delayed for some time and the boys took their morning run and again passed the ball. At Pueblo, a dining car being attached at that place we all ate of Colorado's dainties and drank mineral water on the side. Snow balling was indulged in at every opportunity where the train stopped. But the boys were too much taken up with the mountain scenery to spare much time for other sports. The porte being of a jocular nature, asked Piatt how far a certain pastur fence was off from the train. Piatt said about three hundred feet and was immediately informed that sai fence just at that moment was si miles away. At twelve thirty o'clock the train reached Denver and the team found the officers of the D. A. C. waiting to greet them. The boys were immediately driven in hacks to the Brown Palace Hotel, where they dined during their stay. This hotel cost one and a half million dollars, and reats for seventy-five thousand dollars per year. Dinner being served in due time the "Kansas corn fed Jayhawkers" prepared for the battle, in which they were so victorious. But the good time was to come. The winning of the game made heroes of the team They received a continuous ovation all the way from the Park to their hotel. At seven o'clock all assembled at the club house and from there were taken by some of the club members to the Tabor Grand opera house, where was witnessed a grand production of the comedy, "The Ensign." After a good night's rest and breakfast, most of the team went to church and then all were driven about the city in cabs and shown the sights of Capital Hill and other points of Denver. But the time of departure was near. The D. A. C's appreciated the fact and made strenuous endeavors to make everything enjoyable. They seemed to think that they could not do enough for us. However, after a cordial good by, a Palace sleeper was boarded and the Kansans took their departure at six o'clock. supper being served on the dining car, breakfast and dinner at Kingsley and Newton, respectively. Nothing occurred on the trip back to mar the pleasure of the occasion and at five o'clock and twenty minutes, all arrived, perhaps a little sore but otherwise safe and sound, in Lawrence. NOTES.

LAWRENCE NATIONAL BANK BUILDING. CATALOGUE FREE. A Royal Welcome. The foot ball team received a most royal welcome on its return home from Denver. A meeting having been called in chapel at 1 o'clock, to make arrangements, everything worked smoothly and the reception given the boys on their return from Denver will not soon be forgotten. Eight hundred students gathered at the Santa Fe depot. They had a carriage and wagon in waiting, both decorated in crimson. Attached to the wagon was a rope over 200 feet in length and soon to become an instrument of power. As soon as the train arrived, Manager Hopkins was escorted to the cab where were Chancellor Snow, Profs. Green and Marvin. The foot-ball team, seventeen of them, were carried by the students to the wagon and then began the fun. About five hundred of them took hold of the rope, even the girls did not stand back, and the wagon moved onward. The procession which was headed by the Haskell brass band, moved westward from the depot and then south on Massachusetts, up to Watkins bank where it turned northward, stopping at Wiedemann's where was in waiting a supper and great reception. The stores were decorated all along the street where the procession passed; the windows were crowded with on-lookers, carriages and vehicles were numerous, in fact nearly all Lawrence turned out to meet and greet the foot ball team At 8 o'clock a large bon-fire was indulged in near the park, at which was gathered perhaps two thousand students and Lawrenceites, giving rock chalk and looking on. Chancellor Snow, Prof. Hopkins, and several, in fact all of the foot ball team present, were called upon and made speeches, and this was the closing scene of a great drama. George Hollingbry will make you a fine suit for very little money. Theta Reception. Last Friday afternoon a delightful reception was tendered Mrs. Frank H.

An English judge recently decided that a man may make a marriage engagement without committing himself either verbally or by letter. "A promise of marriage," says he, "may be made in other ways than by words—by a shake of the hand, for example, or a wink of the eye, or a thousand other modes." This is a cheerful lookout for the male of the species, for when girls begin to recover damages for a wink or a shake of the hand man will soon be stone broke. Further, it opens up a whole lot of other questions, for if a wink holds good as a promise of marriage it might also hold good for a lease, or a bill of lading, or any other kind of agreement. Supposing, for instance, one man winked at another, and the other man interpreted the wink as a bill at three months for £500, bearing interest at the rate of "60 per shent," and recovered the amount in this judge's court, with costs, where would the first man be then?—Chicagc Post.

AN EASY VICTORY. Baker Defended by a Score, 14, to 0-The Grounds, not in Good Condition. Notes. The Second exhibition game of foot ball last Friday, with Baker, was won by the Crimson with comparative ease. Although the day was cloudy and the heavens threatening, a crowd of seven hundred spectators gathered at the Massachusetts street grounds to witness the game. The games which K. S. U. and B. U. indulge in with one another are exciting and this one was no exception. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, OCTOBER 27,1892 By 1:30 o'clock the Baker delegation had assembled upon the grounds and were quite profusely decked with the colors of their college, orange. But the crimson was there also in force, and long before the game was called, both factions indulged in their respective college vells. The Baker team had the appearance of being as heavy, if not heavier than the University; their center rush, Pendleton, is a man, weighing two hundred and twenty pounds, and built from the ground up; he gave our center rush, Coleman, all he wanted to do. Crawford and Light perhaps put up the best game for the Bakerites. The University team played well, the tackling and blocking being decidedly superior to that of the Denver game. The grounds were too muddy and heavy to admit of many star plays, yet they were not lacking. Matteson made some long runs and Shepard did good tackling. Williamson also put up a strong game; he is rather light but every inch a man when it comes to playing foot-ball. Baker found the opponent's rush line to be like a stone wall and her repeated onslaughts were of no avail. Coleman, Huddleston and Hammil played well, together. One conspicuous thing about the Baker team's playing is a lack of trained and experienced men. The team does not put up as strong a game as last year. Hogg acted in the capacity of Referee and Rice, of Baker, Umpire. The "Varsity" won the toss and chose the north side. Baker gets the ball however, forms a V, and the game begins. Ten yards are gained before the "Varsity" downed them, then seven more by Haskins, who is downed by Shepard. An attempt is made to crowd the ball through the center without any gain and still another; then Motter punts for 15 yards, Kinzie gets the ball, goes through Baker's rush line for ten yards and again for 5 yards; Champlain gains seven yards through left tackle, Piatt 8 yards through center, Champlain 5 yards; Piatt again goes through center, fumbles the ball which is siezed quickly by Huddlesen who gains 9 yards and Baker gets it on foul. Haskins goes around right end, gains 9 yards; Potter around left end for 2 yards; Crawford 8 yards; Light makes no gain and Potter loses the ball. Kinzie gains 5 yards, Piatt 5 yards, Matteson makes a magnificent run, gains 25 yards, Champlain adds four more to that in two trials, Williamson bucks the center for 3 yards, Champlain, right tackle for 8 yards, Kinzie gains eight, Champlain 8 more Kinzie 4 and Williamson takes the ball through center and over the line; time 15 minutes; Piatt fails to kick goal. Baker starts the ball rolling with the wedge play, gains 10 yards but is sent back to her rush line to try it over, not having kicked the ball. Again she repeats the play, according to Hoyle however, and gains 6 yards, then one more; Crawford gains 3 yards but fails in a second attempt to make any progress and the rubber passes into the hands of the 'Varsity team, five yards not having been made in three downs. Matteson opens up the campaign with renewed vigor, gains 7 yards, Champlain 1 yard, Kinzie 6 yards, Mendell 10 yards, Matteson 2 yards, Williamson 6 yards, Kinzie 8 yards and Baker gets the ball on Platt's foul. No gain is made on first trial, 2 yards are lost on second trial, then a punt follows and Kinzie gets the ball. Matteson starts it rolling for 15 yards, Williamson goes through center and scores a touch down, Piatt fails on goal; score stand 8 to 0. Time,20 minutes. The fifteen minutes of rest being over both teams prepare for a hard struggle. The 'Varsity forms a gridiron, gains 16 yards, Matteson adds 6 to that, Kinzie 9 more on a pass ball, Piatt 3 and Matteson 11 yards more. Baker then gets the ball, bucks the center, gains 5 yards, Dum makes a good tackle, Baker again forms a V, gains 6 yards, and then six more around left end. Crawford makes a good run, gains 15 yards, bucks the center for 3 yards more and in the next two trials no gain is made by Baker, and K. U. fondles the cherished leather. Matteson gets in his usual licks gains 15 yards; Kinzie follows this up with a magnificent play and gains 11 yards, Champlain 1 yard, Piatt 6 yards, Matteson 22 yards, Mendell 4 yards, Baker gets the ball again on foul when time is called for the first half. again 4 yards are made, but none the next two downs and the ball goes to the 'Varsity team. Mendell gains 8 yards, Kinzie makes a star play and gains a touch down, having run and gained just 16 yards. Piatt makes a good kick over goal and the game stands 14 to 0. Baker gains 17 yards on the wedge play; 3 more is added to that and in the next play Motter gets hurt, Farrier is called on duty from the "sub" ranks, and takes Light's place who takes the position of full back and the game begins once more by Baker losing six yards. Crawford punts the ball 35 yards and K. U gets it. Mendell starts out by losing 4 yards and Piatt likewise, the ground being muddy cause it; then Piatt punts the egg shaped leather just 50 yards and Baker falls upon it like a thousand of brick; Potter gains 4 yards; fails in a second attempt to gain anything; Crawford is hurt but soon gets up and takes his medicine as in the days of yore when he played beneath the crimson banner of Harvard; Games gains 5 yards, and then five more; the center is bucked for 2 yards, Haskins gains 7 yards; only 4 yards being made in the next 3 downs, K. U. gets the ball. Champlain hits the road for 15 yards, Kinzie and Matteson 8 yards; Matteson again for 13 yards, Champlain 3 and Matteson 8 yards; Champlain gains 7 more, and Baker gets the ball on foul, gains 13 yards, fumbles the ball, which Piatt punts 30 yards. Mendell gains 8 yards, Matteson loses eight yards and Piatt punts. Baker fights desperately, gets the ball but soon loses it and time is called as Matteson loses 4 yards. The game was very exciting. NOTES. Shepard distinguished himself by good all around playing. There was some slugging. Baker has a good team but her material is not well developed. Foot Ball Schedule. K. S. U.

The first on the program was the song, Columbia, participated in by all; then the Chancellor made a few remarks and introduced the speaker of the day, Mr. J. W. Gleed who delivered an address on the life of Columbus. He began by saying that little was known of Columbus and this became less and less each day as the countless number of critics multiply and increase. "It is the fashion in thought, now, as in dress, to over turn the existing state of things. True historic insight consists of pointing out the faults and blemishes of history. All that we know positively about Columbus is that HE WAS BORN. His father was a weaver. The lad was taught some latin and mathematics during his early years and at the age of fourteen years became a sailor." After a description of the life of Columbus, which was divided into four epochs, apprenticeship, struggle with the world, triumph and final disappointment, the speaker drew many moral lessons therefrom and applied them to college life. "It was, said he, during his apprenticeship at Pavia that Columbus really found America, it was while there that he mapped out his future course. So with all of us at college, our future depends on how our apprenticeship is served. Columbus had great faith and courage; come what will all will be well, was his motto. The age of forty was reached but nothing was done Ten more years passed by and still nothing was accomplished; a wife and family were dependent on him and yet he ploled on. Portugal would not listen to his plea for aid and yet he did not hesitate; England refused him and still he ploaded on. Spain hesitated but he pushed on and with the aid received from the Spanish court the famous navigator found sufficient means to prepare and launch a bark on the unknown seas. Columbus died poo and in disgrace. A Plain Statement of Facts.

Wins the Return Games in both Doubles and Singles. Last Saturday morning Messrs. Alden and Sherman procured a survey and started off for Baldwin determined to demonstrate to the students of Baker that K. U. was still in it, in tennis. They arrived shortly after noon and immediately repaired to the tennis courts where the Baker representatives and a large crowd of spectators were in waiting. It can be seen from the scores that Baker wasn't "in it" from the start. Sherman and Alden won three straight sets in doubles with the following scores: 6-4, 6-0, 6-2. Alden won three straights in singles, 6-1, 6-2, 6-0. Toomy and Kane represented Baker. PERSONAL. Prof. Brownell spent Sunday in Ottawa. Miss Maud Springer is visiting her brother, Gean, this week.

THE tuition at the Chicago University is 25 dollars per term. The Cornell Athletic association is several hundred dollars in debt. THE Iowa foot ball team, if they win the pennant expect to play the Californians. THE class of '94 at the University of Iowa has decided to publish an annual this year. HARVARD MEMORIAL HALL furnishes board for 900 hundred students at 400 dollars per week. EVERY one should turn out and witness to-morrow's game of foot ball. Both teams have the honor of never being defeated. Yes, the Courier is glad to welcome the Student's Journal and had intended to on its editorial page but by mistake, the printer placed the notice in the local column. THE Seminary Notes for October, have been issued and contains very valuable and instructive articles which every student may well afford to expend some thought apon. THE S. U. I. Quill, printed at Iowa City, is the best edited college journal on our exchange list. The editorials are ably written, the reading matter first class and well selected. Success to the Quill. K. S. U. WILL play Washburn next Saturday. From all reports the Washburn team is as strong, if not stronger then last year; but it is doubtful by long odds, whether it will be able to cope with the crimson. PROF. SHEPARD has been elected manager of the foot ball team. The professor will no doubt manage the affairs of the team as well as his predecessor. He has had considerable experience in that line of work, having played upon the Cornell eleven. The COURIER wishes the professor success. THE COURIER shall in the future, at least during the foot ball season be published during the middle of the week instead of Friday. This will give our readers an opportunity of reading an account of the games as well other happenings about the University before the news becomes "stale." The Courier hopes ere long to come out bi-weekly THIS, from the State University of Iowa, "The foot-ball management believes that the second eleven can beat Cornell worse than the first eleven did last year, and want to hear from their manager and get an early game. So far Cornell has not been willing to play our 'Varsity team, but would probably play the second eleven. Columbian Dedication Sale and Opening Who could sit and listen to Mr. L. W. Gleed's lecture in chapel ast Friday and not be impressed with the importance of one's college lays. What one is at college we may presume that he will be in the world of action. Our college days are the days when we form, mould and blend character. It is the time when we create habit and habit once formed is seldom obliterated. As Professor James, of Harvard says: "It alone is what keeps us all with in the bound of ordinance, and saves the children of fortune from the envious uprisings of the poor * * * * It keeps the fisherman and the deck-hand at sea through the winter, it holds the minor in his darkness, and nails the countryman to his leg-cabin and his lonely farm through all the months of snow. It protects us from invasion by the natives of the desert and the frozen zone. It dooms us all to fight out the battle of life upon the lines of our nurture or our early choice, and to make the best of a pursuit that disagrees, because there is no other for which we are fitted and it is too late to begin again. Already at the age of twenty-five you see the professional mannerisms setting on the down young commercial traveller, on the young doctor, on the young minister, or the young counselor at law. You see the little lines of cleavage running through the character, the tricks of thought, the prejudices, the ways of the 'shop,' in a word from which the man by and by can no more escape then his coat sleeve can fall into a new set of folds. On the whole it is well he should not escape. It is well for the world that in most of us, by the age of thirty, the character has set like plaster, and will never soften again." HABIT. PERHAPS there is no phase of university life more misrepresented in the state of Kansas than the spirital one at K. S. U. If there is anything the State University prizes highly and dearly, it is liberty of thought. True to this ideal she has steadily advanced, developed and taken rank with the best institutions of the land. Yet for this same freedom of thought, so characteristic of any progressive institution of learning many have taken exceptions to and misconstrued. They say we are irreligious, that the spirit of infidelity hovers over and around us. What could be more erroneously said of our professors and students! No body of men can be found in the institution of this or any state where the religious phase of life is more and better cultivated than in the faculty at K. S. U. True, chapel attendance is not compulsory, and the students in this respect are at liberty to do as they chose. But does it necessarily follow that they do not attend* and on that account the flame of religious feeling gradually dies out? Nonsense! It only burns the brighter. A privilege implies a duty and duty is paramount and especially the duty of cultivating the religious side of one's nature; nor is there any class of students elsewhere than at K. S. U. who feel this more keenly. No my dear critic, we are not irreligious here. Chapel attendance to be sure is optional but the day it was made so imposed upon the student body a higher obligation—a duty, a duty which one owes to himself, his God and his country. Where chapel attendance is optional, it stands for something quite different than where it is compulsory. To be compelled to attend chapel against one's will is a farce and the victim is none the better for it. If any one feels that he should attend chapel it presents a claim upon him and becomes a bounded duty which he should not and seldom does ignore; if not, he has the privilege to turn away and is not the worse for it. THE CURIER fully believing that he senior class is able to look after its own affairs in regard to the Annual and has thus far kept from commenting in a dictatorial or threatening manner. This policy shall be adhered to. However, the question of "the one-fifth," and their pictures has been commented on so much by our contemporay that a word in regard to it might not be out of place. Why should it be detrimental, financially for the editors of the Annual to permit the so-called "one-fifth" to have their pictures rather then a design in this phamplet? Every Annual which makes any pretence at being representative contains a design this, which is emblematic of these societies, of this respective class. The present Senior class has the reputation of being original in its ideas. Its members have thus far made no great mistake when deciding upon questions of any importance. If they decide to depart from the old rut and allow the sostyled "one-fifth" to be represented in the Annual by their picture instead of the thread worn emblematic fraternal design, the CURIER sees no good reasons why such a course would prove detrimental, financially, and certainly not in any other way. The article on the Fusion club received last week, but too late for publication or comment, is too immaterial and irrelevant to the question, to admit of publication. The Courier is always willing to publish, and solicits articles on current questions but it prefers to stav out of the maelstrum of public politics, which subject, to say the least is not a proper one for college journals. THE Normal Courier is an exchange just added to our list. The Courier is printed at Peru, Nebraska and has just begun its earthly struggle.

CHAPEL RHETORICALS The Review which championed chapel rhetoricals in its last issue now comes out with an editorial upon the subject stating that under the present regime "It is a roaring farce in red tape and means nothing whatsover." Perhaps this is quite a strong statement and yet the way the rhetoricals are being conducted, no one will admit that much benefit is being gained by the student. To be compelled to deliver a hasty and quite often, ill-prepared oration is not only a bore to the one who delivers it but an imposition on those who attend chapel. No one cares to sit in the presence of a trembling wretch who is trying to stammer through a speech written you might say on the spur of the moment and delivered before being committed thoroughly. The Courier heartily endorses the Review and believes as it, that if chapel rhetoricals are to be made a success, previous drill and training under a competent instructor must be had. The young man of public spirit at college, the one who mingles with the students, takes part in every movement will prove to be in after years the man of worth to any community wherever he may reside. He who takes part in college publications and organizations, fraternities and societies will most likely be the leader in politics when his life struggle with the world will have begun. If a whole souled and public spirit has not been attained when at college, the chances are that it never will be. University life is fraught with many valuable experiences outside the covers of a book and if one receives nothing more when at school then a book learning, it would have been just as well had he studied at home. It is the balanced man who succeeds. Success in life does not depend on a host of facts stored up in memory's vault but upon the ability to apply them, and this ability is attained only by mingling in the college world of action. This is why so many make a failure of their college education. They lock themselves up within the four walls of their room, seldom taking part in the world of activity and reality about them, and when the time comes to cope with the world they find themselves at sea. The Students' Journal, in its second issue, says, that the paper was organized to represent four-fifths of the University students that heretofore have been without a paper to represent them. We hope that the Journal, under its present management and patronage will represent its university and students as well as the Courier.—Baker Beacon. THE class of '96 at S. U.

Vol. 1, No. 2, of the Kansas University Quar erly was issued Tuesday and contains five very interesting articles "Unicursal Curves by Methods of Inversion," by Professor Newson contains a summary of work done during the last school year by his class in Modern Geometry. "Foreign Settlements in Kansas" by W. H. Carruth, a treatises on the dialect of this state, is a very valuable article and ought to be in every Kansas household. It is accompanied with a map which makes very clear the extent and distribution of foreigners in the state. The article contains other valuable information, as the origin, date and approximate numbers of any settlement, the extent to which they use the language and also the extent to which their church service and schools are conducted in their native tongue. The Professor has also another paper, "Dialect Words List," which is very interesting and shows some of the idiosyncracies of our language; also how words may be juggled or cuffed about and come to mean most anything in the mouth of the illiterate as well as educated. The Great Spirit Spring Mound situated in the western part of Mitchel county, so little known and yet deserving of greater importance is treated of by Prof. E. H. S Bailey, and from a more scientific than a historic or literary stand point. Analysis of the water and rock in and about the spring have been made and the figures given. The article is very interesting. On Pascal's Limacon and the Cardioid is the subject of the fifth article, by H. C. Riggs. It is a mathematical treatises.

Go to Smith for sporting goods, Eldridge house block. Give Willard, the barber, a call. H. S. Hadley at Northwestern You would probably like to know something about the Western Law school. The school is greater in name than reality. Not that it isn't a good school but that it depends on its work, the instruction that it gives, rather than on its numbers. The school rooms are in the third story of an office block and consist of one large lecture room and three small rooms, one of which is a cloak room, the other two, study rooms for the Juniors and Seniors, respectively. The lecture room has desks something like those in Snow Hall, and the floor rises towards the back lile a theater. The room is a back room and it is necessary to keep the gas burning all the time. On each side of the professor's desk are gas highs which gives the desk the appearance of an altar. They have some peculiar customs here, at least they seem peculiar to us; when a professor enters the lecture room the students applaud, when he makes a strong point in his lecture, when he tells a good story they applaud, and with no disrespect or intention to give a doubtful compliment they applaud when he gets through. The students smoke in the study room and I have seen one person smoking in the lecture room, although it isn't the custom I am told. The library facilities are scarcely unsurpassed. We have free access to a law library containing 27,000 volumes. Think of it, almost twice as many law books as the University of Kansas has in her entire library. There is some class spirit, and a class organization will soon be perfected. Each political party has a club. You have the honor (?) of corresponding with the Secretary of the Northwestern Law School Republican Club. Brown is prominent in Democratic circles. In the immediate vicinity of the school are a number of saloons. On each side of the entrance in the basement below and across the street, are saloons. But I haven't seen a drunk man since I have been in Chicago, nor have I seen a student enter a saloon. If you need a new suit, doesn't the thought who will make me the best one, and who will do the work cheapest, come to mind? Try George Hollingsbery. LAST Friday's game of foot ball demonstrated quite clearly that the 'Varsity team is making rapid progress in team work and sure tackling. None of the players made any great errors but put up an excellent game. If all play as well in to-morrow's game with the Illinois team, the visitors will have a hard struggle to defeat the "never defeated."

What the Chemistry Department is Doing. A few years ago it was supposed that the great salt marshes in the the extreme north of the state and in the Cimarron valley, on the border of the Indian Territory, would at some time be utilized for the production of salt. More recently however borings have disclosed that there are solid beds of rock salt at depths of from 300 to 1,000 feet below the surface. One of the richest borings was made in Ellsworth county and the salt analyzed in the chemical laboratory at the University was found to be of excellent quality. In Hutchinson, Kingman, Sterling, Lyons, Kanapolis and Wellington the industry has since been developed. In some cases as at Kingman, Lyons and Kanapolis the salt is mined by means of a shaft, while at other places, notably at Wellington, Hutchinson and Anthony water is forced into the well and the saturated brine that comes out is boiled down till the salt crystallizes out. Two methods of boiling are in use, the ordinary one in which heat applied directly to the pan evaporates the water, and the "grainer" process in which steam pipes are immersed in the brine and thus evaporation is produced. The oldest salt works are in Saline county. Here the water of a shallow well is evaporated by solar heat. The chemistry department is engaged in making analysis of the brines from the different localities and of the salt obtained by its evaporation All three localities have been visited, and the process of salt making has been studied on the ground. Mr. Case is assisting in the examination of these specimens. The whole subject, when properly worked up, will be published in a report to the State Board of Agriculture. From the analysis that have been made it is shown that Kansas salt is as good as any in the country. Some crystalline lumps that have been obtained from the mines, are of exceptional purity. Indeed so pure is some of this salt, that it is ground and sold directly for dairy purposes without any purification. The most powerful competitor for the market in the west is the Michigan field, and they have the advantage of cheap fuel from the immense pine forests of that region. Notwithstanding this, by the use of "black" from Kansas mines as fuel, the cost of evaporation is reduced to a minimum, and the industry is increasing in importance in this state. The very latest styles and new creations are always to be found upon our shelves. upon our shelves. Bullene, Moore, Emery & Co., Kansas City.
