The Meteorite.
The journal man was shown a photograph of the monster meteorite obtained by Dr. Williston and Prof. Willard of the Kansas Agricultural College, a fragment of which may be seen in the geological museum in Snow Hall. This meteorite was found in the northern part of Phillips county, kan. It had been known by the people of the neighborhood for the last ten years, and many fragments of it had been carried away by curious travelers. The peculiar thing is that although the people of the vicinity called it a meteor, it had not come to the notice of the scientists from Yale who had for two seasons collected within four miles of it. The collectors of this and other institutions had also repeatedly passed through that region. This huge meteorite weighed 1224 pounds besides what had been carried off. It was broken in many pieces, having burst either upon striking the ground or shortly before. Its entire mass was contained within a radius of about four feet. It is now at Manhattan, Kan., in possession of the two professors. The report in the Kansas City Star that they are quarreling over this specimen is entirely without foundation.

EDUCATION recognizes neither position nor wealth. In fact she often seems to deny her fairest treasures to those nursed in high places and pampered by gold. She may be considered as the high goddess of common democracy, the tutelary angel of the industrious and determined
THE Courier has given notice that it will probably soon be issued as a biweekly. In that case a large assortment of periodicals will be published at the University; The STUDENTS JOURNAL issued once a week; the Courier once in two weeks; the Review and the Seminary Notes, each once a month; the University Quarterly once in three months the Annual, presumably, once a year.
It is amusing to notice what some individuals consider a public spirit. They believe they personally are the public, and that everything should be given up to the pleasure of the public. By forcing themselves into the view of other men, they hope to educate everybody to love the dear public. It never enters their heads that it would manifest a genuine public spirit to die, or, if they will persist in living; to rest in some quiet corner until their fellows ask their assistance.
To a young man or woman contem-
plating attending college, the task of
selecting a school is perplexing. Some
say attend this school, others say attend that one. It is quite natural for an alumnus to advise others to attend the school he attended, or some school similar to that one; and for that reason most of the advice given to prospective students is almost worthless. In the second column are a few reasons—not advice, mind you—why students should attend the State University.
In a former number the STUDENTS JOURNAL suggested that medals are hanging in that wonderful storehouse called the future and that on those medals is inscribed "Never Defeated." They are beautiful medals, and the foot ball team is constantly getting nearer them. At the end of the foot ball season the team will have reached them. Then will go up a thundering Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk and bonfires higher and brighter than any yet kindled will illumine the fair Athens of Kansas. Once more a whole city will throng into streets and parks to do honor to "our University."
THE] universities of Paris and of Bologna were once powerful rivals of each other. The University of Bologna aimed to prepare students for a definite and practical career in life, while the University of Paris strove to furnish a general mental training. The historical results of the two systems of education are, that the University of Paris, less mercenary than the University of Bologna, acquired and exercised a much wider influence. It has influenced all modern Europe; while none can point to a definite and lasting good, inspired by the University of Bologna. What is true of these old Universities is true of modern ones; and any system of education which makes a university permanently influential also makes its students permanently influential.
K. S. U.S. HELP TO ITS STUDENTS.
The United States Congress believed a state university in Kansas would be helpful to the state and to the United States, and believing such to be the case, it made provision for the organization and maintenance of such an institution. The state legislature has at all times agreed with the United States congress in this matter, and from time to time has accordingly made appropriations for the University. The Congress of the United States and the Legislature of Kansas are composed of intelligent and patriotic men. If they—disinterested parties, intelligent and patriotic—believe the University is helpful to Kansas and to the United States; their opinion should not be set aside lightly.
To attend the University because it is a duty one owes to the state and to the country is a purely unselfish reason. Being such it may not appeal strongly to all. But there are many arguments persuasive to those seeking only their own interests. One of those arguments is, there is absolutely no tuition. That is a question of saving money; everybody understands and appreciates that. Yet, as enticing as free tuition may seem to a poor student who is working hard to educate himself, it is insignificant when compared with the fact that the University of Kansas furnishes better instruction than most schools attended by Kansas students. In the first place, it has the strongest faculty between the Mississippi River and the Rocky Mountains; and by the present arrangement of options, the students can study what his needs demand. Those two reasons prove that it is to the student's advantage to attend the State University, if he attends any school in the Far West.
But further. The University of Kansas, as far as its work goes, is more helpful to the student than the larger eastern institutions. The work done here is as thorough and as comprehensive; Harvard is authority on such matters and she accepts students from here, as far as the work here goes, on the same basis as her own students. That shows that the work done at the State University is as beneficial as the same work would be, done at one of the larger schools in the East. But the statement was made that the University of Kansas, as far as its work goes, is more helpful to the student that are the larger eastern schools. Here are the reasons: Harvard herself admits the work done here is as thorough as it would be done in the East; the classes are not as large here as they are in the East, and, consequently, each student receives more personal attention from the different instructors. This last fact is worthy of consideration; personal attention gives half the value to the services of an instructor. That being the case, a well informed and judicious youth will attend the State University first; and, if he desires, an eastern school afterwards Kansas University is cosmopolitical. Among its students have been numbered white men of many nationalities, yellow men of several nationalities, red men, black men; men from all classes of society. To live and work in such heterogeneous body is in itself an education.
Again, from a standpoint of money making, the State University is more helpful to the student than any of the other schools between the Mississippi River and the Rocky Mountains. It has a wider reputation than neighboring schools; it has the reputation of giving society more learned and polished men than they; its alumni are stronger than theirs. The name of having been here is a more profitable recommendation.
The Illinois foot ball players say that the K. U. team is not only the strongest in the West, but it is an equal of the eastern teams. The Illinois boys have had much experience on hotly contested fields, and, after one makes the due allowance for their courteous warmth of statement, there yet remains a strong probability that, at the end of the season Kansas will be the possessor of the inter-state pennant.

EXTRACTS FROM ADDRESS DELIVERED IN UNIVERSITY HALL ON COLUMBIAN DAY BY J. W. GLEED.
The thoughts suggested by the history and character of Columbus which seem to me especially useful to a body of students today in the land Columbus created for us out of the darkness of the nether world. are these. His life, which is typical, in a strange wav, of all human life, presents four distinct periods: the apprenticeship, the struggle, the triumph and the disappointment.
And first as to the apprenticeship. How long the great project of his life had definite form in Columbus' mind before its execution we do not know. It appears that he was at work at it as early as 1470. But I am sure that it was in the early days, the Genoa days, the days of the apprenticeship that America was really discovered. Depend upon it, it was the study at school, the boyish gossip with the sailors about the wharves, the discipline and inspiration of those first few voyages, that really accomplished the thing. After that it only needed time.
It is a common sarcasm that a boy knows more at the end of his college course than he ever does after. I think that in a very real sense a boy's college days are his wisest and best. They are not the easiest and happiest, but they are incomparably the most important and, rightly spent, the most blessed. Those are the days and the years during which go forward the unseen mysterious processes, more mysterious than the processes of chemistry, which in the end form character. Then and not afterwards is it uncertain what the man is to be. Then and then only, in all the days of our seventy years, is it given to us to look at this great universe through a clear, pellucid air, free from the dust of the conflict; free from the fogs of self-interest. Later the helmet is put on, the zizor shut down, our adversary chosen, and we are in the murky choking atmosphere of the struggling world. The early days are the days of questions. Those are the days of generous enthusiasisms. Those are the days when men dream dreams and see visions. Nothing essentially new comes after that.
One evening in 1883 I crept slowly up the side of a Swiss mountain. We started at dusk in the rain. It was pitch dark and snowing when we reached the top. I remember how black the pines were; and how the mountain stream came roaring and grinding down about us; and how rugged and awful looked the mountains around us, lighted up now and then by a chance flash of lightning. Overhanging rocks; wide dark valleys; deep jagged chasms and clefts; occasional glimpses of lakes; growing darkness; rain and cold. At the top, chaos; nothing but blackness and mass. We stopped all night on the summit. In the morning I am awakened out of a bad dream by a sweet strange bugle call from what I presently discover is an Alpine horn I can see that it is just growing light. I can feel that it is very cold. I rise and get out of doors. The north wind blites It is half frozen. I climb a little hill and look out toward the east. An age in creation has begun. Let there be light. It is the thing I have seen which I shall longest remember. A sunrise on the
Alps. It seemed to reach hundreds of miles away, it seemed to be two or three miles below me. A great valley containing eight lakes, filled with sunlight and mountain shadow, hovered over by light freewy clouds—guardian angels; little villages with clumps of trees and white church spires, stripes of yellow grain, green meadow, black wood. All down below me a sea of soft, cool, pure, transparent air. Away in another direction, snowy peaks, sunlit and radiant, with clouds and shadows resting below. A whole world distinctly and clearly revealed at a glance. That was ten years ago, just at the close of my life in this institution as student and instructor—ten years ago, when I was wiser if not older than I am now. And after ten years of experience in what we call the practical world, this is the message I bring to you. In our student days we have the vision of the mountain peak; we survey the world from an emirence, through mountain air. In the mountains we are not compassed by the thoughts of utility and self interest, nor does the burden of material duties rest heavily upon us. Those are the things of the plain. In the mountains we are free. That part of a man which came in the well spent days of his youth is the part of which he is the proudest or least ashamed. The sentiments, sympathies, aspirations and opinions which were formed in his school days are those for which he still has the most affection and respect.
By faith I mean that something within us which compulsus us to put aside the known, tangible, attainable case, pleasures or good of the present, and reach out toward some unknown, intangible, uncertain good of the future. * * *
When the farmer plows and plants, he sacrifices the ease and comfort of the present without any certainty of future reward, but moved and upheld by faith in the bounties and benificence of nature. * * * He moves by faith. Thus with the student who spends a dozen of his most precious years in general and special preparation for practical life. The faithless man takes his case. The master, if there be a master, has gone to a far country. He is cynical. He says it would have been better if the new world had not been discovered. He buries his talent. He says "Nothing matters;" "it will be all the same;" "life is too short." He says "Let us eat, drink and be merry; and later he says 'Vanity of vanities; all is vanity.'" The man of faith says: "If I but do my part all will be well."
As Columbus discovered land, but not the things he sought, nor the worlds he expected, so you, as students, if you push steadily and faithfully on. will make your discoveries and acquisitions, but not of the world you now seek nor of the things you now expect. To be forever discovering new worlds quite unexpectedly and where we had not anticipated them, and often against the prophecies of the wise and great, and still offener against the wishes of all those who are comfortable and satisfied—such is human progress.
Columbus sleeps with his fathers. I certainly think he was the kind of man it is worth while to be—brave, strong, simple, patient. He fought the true fight; he kept the faith in himself, the faith in the idea, the faith in which he set out in the beginning, which sustained him throughout the long struggle, and which finally gave him the victory. Such a man was Columbus; such are the lessons I draw from his life.
The Unitarian Sunday school class has an interesting class in ethics conducted by Prof. Carruth, and one in New Testament History conducted by Prof. Newson. The classes are composed mainly of University students, the subjects are treated from a scientific standpoint, and the discussions are lively and spirited. It is well worth one's while to attend.

ATHLETICS FOR GIRLS.
While the boys of K. S. U. and other universities, in addition to their class work are winning laurels in athletics, what in the name of common sense are the young ladies doing? Since Darwin first impressed the world with the evolution hypothesis, his followers in this particular have increased until nearly every enlightened Caucasian—theologian scientist or merely professor—proclaims his adherence to it. The question that we now are trying to solve by our establishments of learning, not only by the education they afford in literature, science and tie arts, but also in athletics, is how to accelerate the process of evolution by intelligent co-operation.
We have our ideal. We are striving for it with all the zeal of Americans of the nineteenth century. But pause a moment. Have we not overlooked something? What is the rising generation of young women doing? The best development of the human race can never come through education of the mind alone. The people of the future are the descendants of the people of today. If we educate the man mentally and physically and the woman mentally, the child will naturally have inherited together with the common strong mind of his parents, at least some and perhaps all of his mother's physical weakness.
I believe that every thinking person of today realizes that physical education is a moral necessity. We apply it every where to our boys, why not to our girls? Why doesn't the girl as well as the boy run, jump, row, swim, fence, play tennis, yes, even base ball? For base ball even for girls is certainly better than weak backs, headaches, sallow complexions and ruined constitutions. A club of young lady base ball players travelled through the country last season, and no one who saw them could question that the healthful exercise in the sunshine and open air had had a very beneficial effect upon their physiques. Must the intelligent and learned University girl wait for her commoner sister to inaugurate the revolution? And if the fashionable mode of dress is in the way, shall she be a nineteenth nay a fifteenth century folly, and a shallow code of false modesty prevent the advancement of womankind? H.
K S. U. GLEE CLUB,
To criticize where there are no grounds for criticism is imprudent. But when a manifest injustice exists it is better for all parties that it should be exposed.
Last year, as is well known, the Glee and Banjo Club made a tour through the state, visiting a number of the principal towns. In nearly every place where a program was rendered, the members of the club received an ovation partly because of the merits of the program, but largely because they were students of the State University.
We understand another trip more extensive than that of last year is contemplated. The desire has been expressed in print and elsewhere, that only the best singers in the University should be admitted into the Glee Club, and only the best players into the Barjo Club. An effort will be made to render music of a higher grade and to render it with greater proficiency than was done last year.
This is a commendable aspiration. There are some able singers in the University this year, but how many of them have places in the Glee Club? With a few exceptions the places are all held by persons with very mediocre voices, and as students are known in the University merely as "pass men."
Perhaps the arrangements made at the beginning of the year will help to explain this condition of things. At a meeting where but few of the members of either club were present, a constitution was adopted which gives the business manager 10 per cent of the net proceeds of the trip, and unites the offices of business manager and treasurer. After the deduction of some other salaries, the remainder of the funds is to be divided among the members of the two clubs. It was made obligatory upon all who wished to enter either the Glee or Banjo club to purchase a full dress suit.
These conditions were distasteful to many, and left the places open to be filled by parties whose greatest recommendations were that they bore certain desired relations to certain other students. It requires good voices and musical ability to make a successful Glee club. This point should be looked to. Unless the Glee club be organized on this basis its prospective tour will result in no great honor to the University OBSERVER.
CRIMSON CONQUERS.
The Standard "Never Defeated" Still Waves.
The Illinois Foot Ball Team Fell Easy Victims to the K. S. U. Team.
The eleven Suckers who have been gliding so victoriously through opposing lines were swooped down upon Thursday by the "invincible" Jayhawks and devoured alive before over 800 people. It was the first game played upon the new athlete field, and although considered an out of the way place, the attendance plainly shows that the people will go there.
It was a fine day, just suited for such a game. It was indeed a struggle between giants. The game was fiercely and stubbornly contested from beginning to finish and blood flowed freely. Nearly every player received some injury. Hall, of Illinois had his wrist broken. Slugging was indulged in to some extent, but not so much as in previous games of this season.
The visitors played a strong rush line but could neither break nor oppose that of K. U., although the Illinois men were much heavier. Slater and Sweeny did fine work for their team, and Hall did good playing.
K. U. won by its team work. Their blocking and tackling, especially, deserve praise. Champin, Williamson and Springer did good work behind the line. The run across the field by Springer was accomplished by the excellent blocking of Piatt and Shepard. To the Kansas boys it seemed as though the championship of the Mississippi valley was at stake, and they played as they never played before.
At 2:30 the Illinois team marched inside the ropes, and the wearers of crimson began to feel a little bit shaky when they saw the fellow fellows line up against our small boys. The Illinois team looked like winners, but there was a facial expression and agility in the movement of the K. U. eleven which has proved them victors on many a hard fought field.
The game was called at 2:32. Arms and Hogg umpired and refereed alter nately each balt.
K. U. starts ball from center by "gridiron" play, and gains 10 yards. By repeatedly bucking the center they advance the ball steadily to the Illinois goal. Champiin goes through center and makes first touch down in eight minutes from the time the game was called. Piatt kicks goal. Score 6 to 0.
Illinois now has ball at center gains 11 vards by a V before broken by K. U. Slater goes round right end for 12 vards. Then they lose the ball on 4 downs.
K. U. quickly pushing through to Illinois' goal. Champlin goes through center and makes a touch down, but it is not allowed by Umpire Arms. So ball is started at 25 yard line. In a few minutes K. U. gets ball on 4 downs and makes a touch down. Piatt kicks goal. Score, 12 to 0 in favor of K. U.
The Illinois team now revives some-
what and secures a touch down, but Hall fails to kick a goal. Score, 12 to 4. First half done.
Illinois starts ball again at center.
Slater fumbles; Shepard gets it. K. U.
soon loses it on a foul. Hall runs about
left end for 20 yards before downed by
Shepard. They do not get required gain
and K. U. takes ball Springer runs around right end and aided by effective blocking, goes entirely across the field, making a touch down. Piatt fails to kick goal. Score. 16 to 4.
Illinois takes the ball and tries to break the rush line but finally loses the ball on 4 downs.
Illinois soon loses ball and K U makes good gains, but fumbles.
By several good rushes Chaupin scores another touch down. Piatt falls on goal kick. Score, 20 to 4.
Illinois starts ball at center but loses it on 4 downs. Champlin and Springer break center, and by quarter-back play, Williamson makes a touch down*. Piatt kicks a goal. Score, 26 to 4 in favor of K. U. Time is called.

Oh, it's nice among the mountains, but I sorter felt shit in;

You may talk about yer lillie, yer v' let an' yer' roses.

The STUDENTS JOURNAL, of the Kansas University, is one of the new departures in college journalism. It's a hummer, and a thoroughly newsy sheet. —Center College Cento.
Platt played a mean, low-lived slug ging game. It will not always be thus. Baker Beacon.
Miss L.—Why! Mr. S. is a fine foot ball player. He is such a nice tackler. Winnie—Wonder how she knows.
Tell the truth, dear Beacon. You called him a gentleman until he beat you at your own game.
We have received the first copy of the STUDENTS JOURNAL published at the State University. It is a very interesting sheet and if it continues in the same manner and with the same end in view it will prove a success and benefit to the school,—College Life, Emporia.
Politica' clubs seem to be an important feature in college life this year. Yale has a Republican club uniformed with blue mortar-boards and light dusters with long capes. Cornell has a Democratic club, Leland Stanford jr., a republican club; the University of Michigan a Republican club which boasts a membership of fifteen hundred; and at Vassar both Republican and Democratic clubs have been organized. Members of the two clubs will participate in a joint debate to be held soon.
A large ladies' class has been formed at our Gym. -Center College Cento.
Professor Ross and his associate in the department of economics have taken upon themselves the task of selecting each week, from the various periodicals, the economic literature of special merit, and on Monday of each week a printed copy of the selections made is given to every student in economics. The object is to tell the students where to go to get the best article on the subjects of the day. It is a new thing here and is fully appreciated by the students. Cornell Era.
The department bulletin board will hold a list that will satisfy every K. S. U. student.
The opportunities for undergraduate work are not one whit better in Harvard, Yale and Princeton than they are in forty other American colleges. And in reality the smaller colleges oter many advantages which cannot be had at any price in the institutions which base their pretensions to being "great" colleges merely upon the great number of students whom they are obliged to instruct and care for at a given time.—Review of Reviews.

"Never Defeated," (Can we say that at the end of the season?)

No wonder the Illinois team was defeated. Champagne does not flourish well in Kansas.
Stranger from Anywhere; "Yes, I've heard about K. U. It has the best foot ball team in the west."
When the K. U. and Washburn teams lined up, a young lady wanted to know if they were going to fight.
The game of foot ball is over four hundred years old. Was America discovered for foot ball or foot ball for America?
The greatest punishment that the disciplinary committee could inflict would be to hypnotize the refractory student until after the foot ball game.
We have strange art critics in the University. The other day a little curly, lop-ened dog, while visiting the History of Art class, went up to the Rorghese Warrior, examined him (critically and deliberately and then barked his approval
The following remarks made by a Washburn student at the foot ball game, shows that due attention paid to athletics by a university is beneficial. He said: "Next year I am going to K. S. U. I don't want to have the horse laugh on me all the time."
The Nineteenth Century for October has an article on the New Foot Ball Man. It says: "The political economist can not afford to neglect the foot ball glups of our day. * * * * * *
The expenditure on lint and liniments, such as Anti Stuff and Friar's Balsam, is also not slight. One team last season got through a mile of bandages."

Washburn puts up a very boor game. They played a game which could hardly be called foot ball.
K. U. Vs. Washburn.
K, U. did not play as well as on former occasions from the fact that the game did not require it.
The only interesting feature of the game were the fine tackling of Shepard and Dumn and the long runs by Champlin and Springer. The goal kicking by Platt was the best ever done in a K. U. game. Platt kicked every goal. The score would have been larger than 36 to 0 had Washburn not required so much time telling signals to their men.
Language Conference.
In the Language Conference yesterday C. M. Sherer read a paper on the Historical Novel. He said writing historical novels is wasting energy; because, supposing that the reader is able to distinguish the historical from the fictitious parts—which one can not often do—more historical knowledge would be disseminated by the same amount of energy if expended in writing real and true history.
Prof. Canfield gaye a talk on the work of Ernest Renan, saying Renan at first wrote dogmatically but later became courteous as his style became polished, and that many affirm that his style is superior to the conclusions drawn.
Prof. Carruth then followed with an exposition of Gottsched's ideas on the drama and comedy. Characters for the drama should be taken from the nobility and characters for comedy from the common people. The professor found that in practice, Shakspeare had not differed materially from Gottsched's views.

The executive committee of the Oratorical Association has decided that all orations for the local contest must be handed in by noon of Jan. 6, 1893. According to the rules of the association no oration shall contain more than two thousand words,and three copies of each oration shall be handed to the committee. The orations are submitted to a committee of the faculty who select the best six to be delivered at the cortest. Fortune are the men who succeed in being among the best six. As for those who do not succeed in getting into the contest, their names are never made public. One no one hesitate to try. There will be a good contest this year. One bit of adyce to the man who thinks of entering this year: See that you have your three copies all well type written; let no one of them be in the least difficult to read. A man last year had one blurred copy, and received a low mark on thought and composition from the judge who had that copy to read. No judge can do justice to an oration which he cannot read readily.

The Illinois Team.
Sunday. ast the University of Illinois foot ball team returned from its western trip, and though the success was not as emphatic as [was desired or even expected, yet it was shown that foot ball is not confined to the institutions of learning in the east and that the wild and woolly west, considering the short period that the game has been played by western collegians, is producing foot ball players and foot ball teams to rival those found in the great eastern institutions. It is, indeed, a wonder to what extent the game is being played in the west and it is more of a wonder to see the proficiency of the greater number of the western college elevents.
The 'varsity team played six games in the short period of ten days and thoroughly demonstrated the fact that so many games in that limited time, considering the amount of traveling necessary to be done, is too much work for any college team. It was also shown that Lincoln and Omaha are out of the territory of eastern teams, for the simple reason that but few persons are able to stand the effects of the alkaline water which necessity compels one to use unless water is carried for the trip, for most of the Illinois boys were sickened at both of the above named cities by the water used.
Out of the six games played, the 'varsity men secured four victories, the scores in the six games being: At St. Louis, Mo., Illinois 22, Washington 0; at Lincoln, Neb., Nebraska 6, Illinois 0; at Baldwin-Kan, Illinois 26, Baker 10; at Lawrence, Kan., Kansas 26, Illinois 4; at Kansas City, Illinois 42, Athletic club 0. The total number of points scored by the 'varsity team was 114 against a total of 42 made by the opposing teams.
The game won by Nebraska at Lincoln was virtually won by Flippan. a colored half-back, who makes phenomenal rushes through the opposing line. Flippan is of heoric build, tipping the beam at 195, and the strong rush line of the Illinois team was unable to withstand his heavy onslaughts. Those who have seen and played against McClung, Lake and other famous line half-backs are emphatically of the opinion that Flippan is the equal or superior or any line half-back on the eastern fields.
The Illinois boys were surprised to find such a game as was played against them by the University of Kansas at Lawrence. Kansas possesses an extra heavy team, which is well-balanced, and, on account of the coaching of Shupard, an ex-end-rusher of Cornell, put up a game remarkable for team work and rapid maneuvering. It is the opinion of most of the Illinois team that the Kansas eleven is the superior of the famous Purdue team, which is at present posing as the champion eleven of the west.—Chicago News-Record.
The Phi Psis have corneted the Iowa football team, having five regular players and two substitutes; and the Independents have a corner on the Missouri team, prohibiting fraternity men from entering the team The Independent corner is more successful than the Phi Psi corner, however, for the Missourians defeated the Iowa boys by a score of 24 to 0.

The room occupied at present by the laboratory of physiological botany is too small; it renders the work in this department uselessly inconvenient. The department is deserving of more commodious rooms.
MANY honorable victories won tend to dissuade the University foot ball team from further practice, but without daily practice the players can not hope this season to win those metals inscribed, "Neyer Defeated."
NEITHER Oxford nor Cambridge has a chair of English Literature. What does this show? That it does not pay to teach English Literature? That these schools are beyond such work? Or that they are not performing their duty.
THERE is talk that Adelphic Literary Society will at the end of the year give a prize program again. It should be done. Interest in the society will be kept up by that means, and encouragement given to its members to do more finished work than they might do otherwise.
WHEN the result of the foot ball game was telegraphed here from Denver, most people concluded the Denver team can not play well; but, since the games between our boys and Baker, Illinois, Washburn and Iowa, one has reason to think that perhaps the Denver men played tolerably well.
McCook Field is settling nicely. By spring it will become almost as solid as though the soil had never been moved. Yet it may fairly be concluded that before the liberal ideas of Gen. McCook can be realized, all students—not athletes alone—must find encouragement to exercise there.
The old jokes that the University publications are run by and in the interest of a few, and that none but fools and men who are at the University for the first year, ever pay subscriptions, is no longer true. The JOURNAL is published by a large stock company, and all paid up subscribers help control the paper. Under such circumstances the man who does not pay his subscription is dishonest
ALTHOUGH students are often told that they should not remain constantly at their books, no one ever thinks to warn them from an excessive division of their energies. Yet it is certain that some students give their attention to so many things that nothing is well done; others do some one thing well, perhaps, that might more properly be done out of, than in collage. This wrongly divided energy is to a large extent wasted because the student has never seriously asked himself: Why am I a student?
The quadrangular foot ball league includes colleges of Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri, and Iowa. The northwestern league includes colleges of Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin. The team victorious in one league should by all means play the other league's victorious team. It would give the strongest team its deserved recognition, and would do much to advertise the western universities. The self-appreciating East—and, in fact, the whole country—might thus be brought to recognize that the Mississippi valley is not lacking in educational institutions.
THE Kansas State University needs a building arranged expressly for photography. Each of the important eastern schools thought such a building expedient; and after having used it for a time now considers it necessary to the successful teaching of science. But it is useless to go from home to find instance where photography has aided in teaching. Our own faculty, poorly provided with means as it is, has within the last two years made upwards of five hundred lantern slides.
There are eight principal reasons why photography should be used in the study and teaching of science;
1. In studying entomology, fossils—any specimen, in fact, on which a microscope can be profitably employed—, photography in connection with a magic tinter may be a valuable aid.
2. It may be a valuable aid by producing not only more exact copies, but with a less expenditure of work, than could be made with a pencil or pen, whether one copy of a picture is required or copies enough for a whole class.
3. When illustrative engravings are desired, photographs are the best and cheapest means of procuring them.
4. Frequently a good specimen is found, which from its nature can not be preserved; in such a case photography may prove almost invaluable.
5. The power which photography affords of multiplying exact pictures of specimens is often very advantageous.
6 When a professor desires to illustrate a lecture, which is the only successful way to convey knowledge in many divisions of science, he must have recourse to a magic lantern, and the slide used in the lantern must be procured by photographic means.
7. By a liberal use of photography, a student is encouraged to look for himself, to make personal investigations, rather than to gain his knowledge wholly from the investigation of others; that is cultivating the true scientific spirit.
8. It not only induces the student to do his work better than he would otherwise do it; but it also makes it more probable that, through original work, he will also science by discovering some now unknown fact. In no other way than by having apparatus and a place specially prepared for photographic work, valuable pictures be made. In the first place, if a photographer must make a special trip to the specimen every time a picture is desired, much time and money is absolutely wasted. Besides every teacher of science should have unrestrained access to a photographer's work room, so that he may become perfectly familiar with the various processes in making a picture. A theoretical knowledge is not sufficient for him. His knowledge must be practical, and the only way he can acquire such a knowledge is through actual photographic work. The reason a practicable knowledge is requisite to an instructor, is that, without it, he cannot tell the photographer what to do to produce a desired result; and the photographer, not knowing what is to be exemplified in the picture, works uselessly.
A nice little one story building well-suited to photography might be constructed for $1,000. $2,000 would build a much better one, one perfectly satisfactory in every way; but $1,000 would be at present wisely spent for such a building. By being wisely spent, is meant that while there are many things connected with the University, that need money at present, few of them would make more few lasting or such immediate returns on the money invested, as a building suited to photography would. Some of the work done in science at the University has peculiarly distinguished the authors of that work, as well as the University and the state itself. Likely $1,000 or $1,500 expended in the interest of photography would enable our scientists to gain more honor for themselves and for the state; without such a building it can scare me if you think that our faculty can do what other faculties do, who not only have such a building well arranged, but in addition also have the year round a salaried photographer. Just now, however, a photographer is not a requisite to the University, but the building itself is.

NOVEMBER.
—Charles W, Coleman in Atlantic Monthly
Admirers of Sidney Laurier will be interested to know that his son, Charles, also has recently taken up a literary career. He had a good place in a railroad office but he longed for leisure and opportunity to devote himself to literary work, and wrote at odd times for the papers. The publisher of the Cosmopolitan invited him to call on him to spend the evening in a social way. The close of the evening the publisher said "Mr. Lamer, I have been drawing you out and I find you are just the man I want on the editorial staff of the Cosmopolitan."

If there is one thing more than another that shows a cultivated English style it is the proper use of the subjunctive mood. Some may be surprised to know that there is such a mood in English; they have been brought up on the "potential" mood and the "subjunctive that is dying out." Nowadays well bred people are no longer deluded by the "potential" mood and have come to respect the subjunctive.
In so very few cases in Modern English is the subjunctive different from the indicative in form that the carelesss think it of no importance. In all verbs but one, only in the third person, singular, present tense, has it a distinctive form. The verb "to be" has distinctive forms in both the present and the pretend tense. A great many—even those who sneer at it—use the subjunctive every day in blissful ignorance of the fact. When they use "had" for "should have" or "would have" they are unaware that it is subjunctive. Much is heard of the "subtle" use of the subjunctive in Latin, German and French; its use in English while not so frequent is fully as subtle. It expresses delicate shades of meaning and gives an accuracy and precision to a statement of which the indicative is totally incapable. It is also shorter than the "potential" and more euphonious than the indicative. And finally while in many cases there is a choice between the use of the indicative and the subjunctive, there are some in which the latter would be positively inaccurate and inolegent.
But it is not so certain that it is going out of use. Whatever authorities are quoted for the statement, there are just as many and as good that assert the contrary. Even if the final $ s $ be added to the solitary case of the present subjunctive "were" can ever fall into disuse. Earle in his Philosophy of the English Tongue says: "If were goes out it will be a beauty lost. However it may be with collequy and familiar prose, it can ill be spared from poetry and the style of dignity. But I do not anticipate the complete desuetude of the subjunctive."
The main reason urged by decrivers of this hand v little tense is that "it is going out of use." A very decisive reason. If it really is going out of use it is not the first time that a good thing has been lost through ignorance and bad taste.
Apropos of the recent Columbian Dedication in Chicago, I beg leave to address the following lines to the readers of the Journal. - C. H. L.
Columbus! At even a whisper of that name, the past flings back her curtain of the centuries and standing out in bold relief is old Castile, with her vine clad hills and olive groves sending back the kisses of the sun.
I see the glittering fanes, the stately towers of Palos; fair and rocking within the harbor at her feet are the frail shalops whose slender prows point to a new world's unknown shores. I hear the threats and frenzied weeping of the mob on shore, but calm, unmoved, Columbus stands. To him it seems that these frail vessels bear the fortunes of mankind. He sees with vision clear his path across the watery hill. He sees
the sun rise and set on far off fairer lands. Beyond the broad, unbroken sea, across the dusky tracts of night, a new, a rich, a wondrous land unrolls its treasures to his raptured gaze. Summoned and impelled by Omnine power he falters not, and baffled curses fall on ears that hear and heed them puerer.
Every school child knows the story of that voyage, the dangers of the unknown sea, the long day and longer nights, the anger and impatience of the crew, and then—the glorious sight of land, the realization of a life's long dream. * * *
Again I see those vessels, anchored, rock in Palos. Again a mighty mob assembles. The king and queen of Spain in person come to greet the great discoverer, who brings back dusky scions of an unknown race. Columbus hears the plaudits of the mighty throng with soul serene and courage high, as when, erstwhile amid their jeers and taunts he sailed away.
Thus with his greatness acknowledged and honors him, would that we might bid him adieu. But he whose mighty intellect towered as far above the intelligents of his time as peaks of the Rockies on our prairie hills; he whose courage and perseverance opened a pathway for the old world and gave to Spain a priceless province; he, the trackless ocean's conqueror, fell a victim to human perfidy and royal ingratitude, and died in chains.
Yet today, four hundred years since the time of his matchless achievement, all who love home and country, all who revere high courage and noble daring, the lovers of freedom and the pilgrims of Genius, pronounce the name of Columbus with praise and pay homage to his clay. Yet shall his name through circulating ages form the theme of true hearts' prose and song. And from his life we shall unfold in our natures courage that is the corner stone of manhood.
EXTRACT FROM AN ADDRESS ON EDUCATED LABOR BY PROF. F.W. BLACKMAR.
These and many other examples in consideration show us that those who have labor problems to solve need careful study, education, and wisdom for guidance. The conditions of industrial society must be studied. The economic laws which underlie the production and distribution of wealth need careful investigation, so that the laborers shall not be the ultimate losers in the process of adjustment. Indeed, the cause of labor has suffered more on account of ignorance than in any other way. Much has been learned in the hard school of experience, but much has been lacking both in leaders and in men. The true leaders of the movement know better than any one else how much stubbornness born of ignorance it is necessary to contend with Occasionally a false leader, too, who has read some books of the wrong class, who has only a show of intelligence and a distorted view of everything, who is lacking in sound judgment and logic thought, the essentials of true education brings the cause of labor into disgrace It is to be deplored that the intelligent labor of America has to contend with such great masses of ignorant labor from the Old World, who are accustomed to a lower standard of life, and are willing to work for lower wages. To obviate the difficulty the unions take them in, and bring the intelligence of their organizations into disrepute. In saying that I have no wish to decry the coming of foreigners to America as rapidly as they can be assimilated into the political and economical society without its positive detriment. But the burden of keeping up the standard of life of the labore ought not to be made greater.
But how is this education to be obtained? By any process which will give intelligence, logical thought and sound judgment. It does not necessarily all come from books, although they are indispensable to modern education. For the children of the laboring classes there is ample provision in the public schools. With will and energy, a general, technical, or university education is possible
to all. At least every boy and girl may bring into their calling intelligence and means of elevating themselves and their work. To those who are past the school age there are books, papers and magazines accessible in libraries; there are lecture courses, night schools, and other means of direction and inspiration. What the people most need is direction in reading from a non-partisan standpoint. Their time is limited and they ought to have the best books at their command. But with all the means of improvement the man who works ten hours at severe labor, attends to his home duties, has little time, strength or inclination to spend much time in study. Yet, even then, with a habit once formed, an hour each day could be profitably, pleasantly and restfully spent in reading good books. This means three hundred and sixty-five hours per year, or thirty six days of ten hours each. Wonders can be accomplished in this time.
It would be better if the laborer had more time for self improvement. The questions are continually asked: If the work day is reduced to eight hours, will the laborer devote his spare time to self-improvement and improvement of the home? Will he improve his mind and make the home more cheerful? Judging from the past, I think he will. The history of the elevation of the laboring classes warrants this assertion. The labor platforms and constitutions have been prompt in proclaiming the equal rights of women with men. Let us trust that when the eight hour day is an accomplished fact, it will apply alike to our wives, mothers and sisters. That the man who works but eight hours shall try to lighten the burden of the wife and mother, to beautify and make pleasant the home.
But life does not and should not end here. Beyond self improvement and home life and duties, lies the social life. Education makes a larger man every way. His duties to common society, to the school, to the church, to political life, to the family, to moral life. All of these questions appeal to the educated laborer, while the ignorant is passed by as only one vote more. Education is the corner-stone of the Republic, the sure foundation of all organizations. Cherish it and it will serve you.
But education to the laborer means something more than the wise direction of his cause against capital. It means an elevation of the standard of life. It means individual improvement, greater worth, and consequently greater wealth. It is a lever power which enables him to accomplish more in a shorter time, and power to do it better. Education means more than this. It means a larger life, a better and a happier life. No one should measure his life by the bare round of daily toil. His life should be larger than his calling or occupation. The more he learns to know and to enjoy, the greater will be his delight in living, the greater his real wealth of life. Enter the homes of some of our laborers, and see what thrift, economy, intelligence, and a taste for the beautiful have done. Pictures, papers, magazines, and a few chice books. Plano, organ, or at least a musical instrument of some kind; picture books and toys for the children. Everything betokens a glorious, comfortable home-life, of which every American is proud. No wealth, but harmony, peace and quiet enjoyment. This is more than you can say of the home of many a millionaire. Now the secret of all this is in knowing how to live, how to manage how to use the means attainable.
Another magazine has made its appearance. This time it is "The Harvard Graduates' Magazine." It is a monthly, contains two hundred pages of matter, and in its typography and general make up is equal to the great magazines. It is published by an association of the graduates of Harvard and its scope is first the achievements of Harvard graduates and their life as expressed through classes clubs, and alumni associations, and the interests of Harvard University in general. This first number contains among other things articles on the Worth of a University Education by A. P. Pea body, Harvard Men in Politics by T. Roosevelt, and the Alumnus and his Son by W. P. Garrison.

THE COLLEGE GIRL AGAIN.
In the Nineteenth Century struggle that is going on between mind and matter, as the world of men is coming more and more to look to the college bred man as the best type for a leader, so the world of women must look to the college bred woman as a model to pattern after.
A great deal is being said nowadays about dress reform. There is a feeling which is growing stronger every day not only among sensible women but also among sensible men—for "Am I my brother's keeper?" means nothing different from "Am I my sister's keeper?"—that the present style of dress for woman is the shame and disgrace of the American people. The dress of man is, as a rule, about as comfortable and conductive to health as could be invented; can we say, as much of the average woman's dress? Four requirements which every dress, whether for men or women, should meet, have been entirely over-looked; viz.
2nd. Absence of pressure over any part of the body.
1st Freedom of movement.
3rd. No more weight than is necessary for warmth. Both weight and warmth equally distributed.
4th, Quick changeability.
Frances Wright has said that no dress can be considered rational that does not give as much freedom to the legs of women as to their arms. No woman ever discarded her conventional attire and made trial of the freer dress of the male sex, but returned to her skirts with a sigh, and wished that fashions might change. The style of dress for women that is certain to come into general use (as soon as the evil influence of dress makers and corset manufacturers and designers, who by the thousands are making fortunes out of the present disgraceful styles, can be overcome) is the gymnasium costume, already adopted in many of the leading schools of the east. And its use is certain to extend from the gymnasium to the home and finally to the streets. It consists of loose trousers reaching to the knee or below it, loose waist or tunic, and strong stockings. Those who have seen this cos-
tune say the style is graceful and be-
coming to almost all women, and certa-
ly a thousand times more modest
than the present one. It is the only
suitable dress for tennis, for bicycling,
for work or for study.
The women of this country are only waiting for some one to make the start. Who then can do it better than the college girl? She wants to look pretty and neat. Do you think, young ladies, that you look either pretty or neat with your compressed and elongated waists and dragging a dirty train after you? Lady Haberton aptly says: "All our efforts will be useless until an obviously two-legged dress is recognized to be the only suitable dress for a two-legged creature."
The college girl needs such a style of dress, not only for economical but also physical reasons; for she has arrived at an age when her physical powers should be given perfect freedom. If the college girls will do their part in this they will be upheld not only by the students and faculty but also by all thoughtful persons the world over. H.

It is too bad that the girls walk back and forth, with their arms around each other, when there are so many boys in the University.
Students should walk lighter when in the inner library. To have a student stalk by you every few minutes as if he were on silts, is anything but agreeable.

Candy is not a necessity, but a luxury, and when luxuries are inudged in they should be of the best. There is not a man, woman or child who loves candy and does it anyway, and did they ever stop to think that there is a difference in candy? some candy is made of impure and refuse goods, and its inferiority covered up with fancy coloring. Such candy when used with vanilla only paves the way to a ruination of health.

If the University has a genius he should be singled out and commanded to secure a new and striking college yell. While the present yell still has its scores of admirers, the time has come when we should advance to the second stage of our velling existence and agree upon something that can be given in harmony by more than a single voice. There has not been a crowd this year that could give the present yell together. If a choir cannot sing together, the song is a failure, and the same holds true for a yell. It loses the effect intended when the unity of the voices is not accomplished.

The history of education in Kansas is a story of unbroken progress. With a rich patrimony of public land, the basis of a system of unrivalled excellence, with her hills and valleys dotted with schoolhouses, with her colleges and institutions of learning established in every section of the state, and with a corps of superintendents and teachers of talent, tact, zeal, energy, state and educational pride, Kansas will not fail. This is our work - F. C. Davis, in the Industrialist.
It is currently reported that our sister college, Central, is soon to be invaded by the Grecian host and that M. S U. boys have the matter in charge —Argus.
What a pity the Central hordes do not receive them as the barbarians of ancient times received more worthy Greeks
There is a scheme being proposed that a convention be held of the members of the class of '93 of all American Colleges during the World's Fair.— Drake Deiphic
Geo T. Fairchild, treasurer of the Kansas Columbian School Exhibit, published his financial report in the Industrialist a few weeks ago. The report shows that the total amount raised in the state for this exhibit is $3,308 05.
At last Baker is to have a gymnasium. It is to occupy the entire eastern half of the garret in the old stone building Prof. S. E.

Volume I, No.1 of the Round Table, published by the students of the Southwest Kansas College at Winfield, presents itself this week. It is a neat 16-page semi-monthly pamphlet whose newsy pages and attractive advertising bespeak for it a useful and prosperous career.
Chancellor Canfield has a characteristic article in this month's Nebraska, on athletics, the concluding paragraph of which is one every man not on the team heartily endorses: "As for us poor common mortals, who can only stand about the ground and cheer and blow
horns and wave flags and hug our men and hate the other fellows—we ought not to forget our duty in a more limited sphere; keeping in mind the work which we can do, and doing it with all faithfulness, and possibly consoling ourselves with an occasional re-reading of the fable of the Hare and the Tortoise."

Iowa Meets Defeat by K. S. U.'s Never Defeated Team.
The First Game of the Quadrangular League Results in a Sweeping Victory for K.S.U.
Three car loads of students accompanied our eleven to Kansas City Saturday to help it win the greatest game of the season. On the grounds 1,500 people added their voices to the dear old Rock Chalk. The old gold of Iowa was not in it. While about 500 supporters made the grand stand ring with S. U. I.—S. U. I.—Giddy Giddv S. U. L., at first, later on one could have heard a pin drop in their part of the stand. Our team was quartered at the Midland. The Iowa队 at the Victoura.
At 3 p. m, both teams came on the field. The Iowa men were an active looking lot of men, but were not so heavy as our boys, nor did they show such hard practice.
Last year our team was obliged, in the game with Iowa, to play against twelve men, or rather the S. U. I. team and their umpire. Our boys, finding that it was no use to try to win the game in the face of his rocky decisions with drew when the score was 14 to 12 in our favor. When our boys play against eleven men they always win. This year we could find no fault with the umpiring of Mr. Elliston, although he might have watched a little more closely for fouls by the Iowa men. Our team played well. The rush line formed an almost solid wall for the men behind the line. The interference of our team was much better than in any previous game. Iowa excelled us in tackling and following the ball. The tackling was the best we ever witnessed. Our boys should use a tackling machine in their practice.
As to what particular ones of our team did well, it would be difficult to say. Everyone seemed to fit in his individual place. Coleman and Piatt played an exceedingly fine game, notwithstanding their recent injuries. After making a number of brilliant plays Dumm was compelled to withdraw from the game with a sprained ankle. Springer took his place and put up as good a game as his predecessor.
clubs are listed below.
Diana           Left end              Full

Champ around left end and Kinzie around the right make 5 yards more. Iowa braces up and gets the ball on four downs. Myers makes a fine run around right end and gains 10 yards. The rolling wedge is tried but makes very slight gains. Elliot attempts to make a tackle play but loses 5 yards. Sawyer fumbles and Champlin gets the ball. Mattison makes four yards round right end. Piatt bucks the center for 10 yards. Mendell loses 4 yards. No gain. Larrabee punts and Champlin carries the ball back into Iowa territory again. K. U. plays the criss-cross but fails to make any gain. Piatt makes a good gain of 6 yards through the center. K. U. falls to make any gains. Iowa gets the ball and also fails to make any gains. Piatt punts to Sanford who fumbles and Kinzie gets the ball. Dumm makes a good run of 10
yards around right end but sprains his ankle and Springer takes his place. K. U. by several half back plays of 1 to 5 yards each finally put the ball over the line after playing 35 minutes. Platt kicks a very difficult goal. Score, 6 to 0. In the remaining 10 minutes neither side is able to score.
SECOND HALF.
Iowa starts with a V for a gain of yards. An attempt to break the center fails to make a gain and S. U. I points to Platt who returns it with a loss to Iowa of 10 yards. Iowa loses the ball to Huddleston. Gillette foul tackles Springer and K. U. is given 13 yards. Good runs by Shepard for 15 yards. Mattison for S, Champlin for 7, and a touch down is made. Platt fails to kick goal. Score 10 to 0. Iowa bucks the center for a few short gains and on a foul tackle by Springer. Iowa gets 20 yards and the ball and stands on the ten-yard line. With a V Iowa makes a touch down. Larrabee fails to kick an easy goal. Score 10 to 4.
K. U starts with a gridiron and Cham-
plin makes 25 yards. By a series of rush
line plays K. U, makes another touch
down. Piatt falls to kick goal. Score
14 to 4.
Iowa fails to make any gains and K.
U. gets the ball. Several gains of from

Iowa again starts with a V but fails to gain much. K. U. gets the ball and by a star run of Mendell for 47 yards the ball is on the Iowa 5 yard line. Champlin carries it through the line for a touch down. Platt kicks goal. Score 24 to 4. In the remaining time neither side scores. Time is called with the ball in Iowa's territory.

THOUGH but little time remains to do it in, the University foot ball team should train with the aim to avoid fouls; losing twenty-five yards on a foul tackle is often equal to losing a touch down.
COLLEGIATE work should do two things: Store the mind with data, facts and principles; and train and develop the powers of the mind. Facts are of little use to an untrained mind, and a trained mind without facts is of little use.
PROFESSOR WILLIAM D. WHITNEY, of Yale, is one of the last appointees to the advisory council of the World's Congress auxiliary of the Columbian exposition in the department of archaeology and philology. Such appointees insure successful work.
MEN who spend their lives in studying are fittest to form opinions; the opinions of such men are also the fittest to be expressed. Yet there has been much ad verse criticism of the eighteen Amherst professors who publicly expressed their political preferences. Rather than ask if such men should be allowed to express their opinions, one had better ask if it is not their duty to express them.
THE Czar of Russia has donated $500,000 to establish in St. Petersburg a medical school for women. Though many of the collegians of Europe and America amuse themselves by abusing the czar, he shows a sounder appreciation of women than some of his detractors do. It appears also that he fully appreciates the importance of women having a knowledge of medicine, something which very few Europeans or Americans do appreciate.
THE annihilation of famous personages still continues. Samson, Romulus and Remus, William Tell, Homer, each in his turn has been reduced to a name without a man, or at most a much dwarfed man. The last victim is an American, Potahontas. They row claim that she never saved the life of Captain John Smith. Though the modern method of writing history is destructive to ideal realities, it listingshades between facts and fancies.
--our stories are the best in the world and that certain new American novels are sure of a place in literature.
EVERY seat in Chapel Hall should be occupied Friday evening. The lecture will be not only instructive but entertaining as well. Mr. Jordan was a favorite pupil under Louis Agassiz, and later was his assistant. His first experience as a university president was at the State University of Iowa; from whence he was invited to the presidency of the Leland Stanford Junior University. At present he is recognized as one of the foremost of American biologists, and the highest authority on Ichtyology. From the varied and successful experiences of his life, he is well qualified to treat his subject, "Agassiz as a Teacher." The lecturer will relate his personal reminiscences of that poetic scientist, adding to them reflections upon the methods of teaching biology which were instituted by that master teacher of Natural History. Our own chancellor and the California scientist were chums during the summer of 1874, on Penikase Island. All these circumstances unite to make the lecture of interest to all members of the University, to the faculty as well as to the students.
THE LAW SCHOOL OF K. S. U.
The attendance of the Law School is increasing. At the present time there are more than eighty students. The large majority of the students are Kansans; although citizens of neighboring states are beginning to show their appreciation of the school by attending it. This out of Kansas appreciation recommends the school highly. When citizens of other states come here to study law, it would seem ill considered indeed if Kansans left the state to study.
The system of study used here is known as the Dwight system. Prof. Dwight was the'man who successfully developed the Columbian Law School. Described briefly, the Dwight system consists of using text books and collaterally looking up decisions rendered in important cases The other system of study makes use of no text book at all but gives the student's whole time to the study of decisions. In using the Dwight system the Kansas School follows the older and the more common method.
At present the Kansas law requires that, before one can practice law, one must be a citizen of the United States and of Kansas, and must have read law two years, one of which shall be with a practicing attorney, who must testify that the applicant is of good moral character and qualified to practice It is hoped, however, that the present law will be changed, so that one desiring to practice will have to pass an examination directed by the Kansas supreme court. The Kansas Bar Association is in favor of such a change and will recommend it to the legislature. Such a law would prohibit many pettifoggers from entering the profession. The present law, however, is technically observed by the students of the School, by their registering with some attorney in Lawrence.
Aided by instructors, students of law can in a given time accomplish more work, and the work they do accomplish, accomplish more thoroughly, than if working without instructors. Law consists of many points linked together; and there is no war in which one can study a point in all its bearings, without considering other points. Frequently some of the collateral points are new to students. In such a case an instructor can readily give the information required by the student on the callatal points, for the full and easy understanding of the one main point. By thus gaining a full knowledge of everything immediately and remotely connected with the point in question, the student more easily grasps general principles. Having them, he can by the law of association easily remember every thing in agreement with or contrary to them. Then the practice gained in drawing up pleadings and in arguing cases, in moot court, will make one so sure of his ground that it will be impossible for some crabbed old practitioner to scare the young one out of his senses; and thus make him lose his first cases which he might otherwise win.
The preceding are reasons why one should attend a law school instead of working harder and accomplish less by reading alone in an office. Following are reasons why a student living west of the Mississippi and south of the Missouri River, should attend the Kansas School in preference to all others. Being situated here, its work is naturally more or less adapted to the needs of lawyers practicing in this part of the country. For the short time it has been in existence, it has good alumni, which fact will be beneficial to all future graduates. The work is of a superior quality. Tuition is free to Kansans, and almost free to students from other states.
MISS MARGARET HARRICK, a special student at Harvard annex, won the Nargent prize, which is $100, offered for the best metrical version of the sixteenth ode of the third book of Horace. The essence of this ode is that enough is as good as an abundance. Perhaps it is intended that this sentiment shall consol Miss Harrick for being kept in the annex at a time when her ability fits her for the work done in Harvard proper.
LITERARY DEPARTMENT
Full many a boy, through love of joy.
Who leave his books unknown.
His time devotes to "snowing cats."
Until to manhood g own.
Full many a girl, her fan does twirl,
A well dressed dude to win;
Admires his clothes from head to toes,
And not the man within.
Both lass and lad are pale and sad
And swamped ere youth is run.
Then let our strife be for a life
Of usefulness—not fun.

Lew Wallace has put the finishing touches on his new novel, and as soon as he has given it a hasty review it will be ready for the publisher, who has not thus far been selected. General Wallace has written the book slowly and with infinite painstaking, with the hope and expectation that it will exceed "Ben Hur," in merit and popularity. It will make a portly octavo volume of 744 pages, of the kind Muddle would delight to circulate, and will therefore be one-third larger than "Ben Hur."
In our issue of Friday we reproduced from the Charleston News and Courier an article referring to the recognition that had been extended to Dr. Shepherd as a philologist by Oxford and stating that the cause of letters in the south shared in the compliment paid the learned North Carolinian. The tribute to southern scholarship involved in the Oxford recognition of Dr. Shepherd is, however, only what the south had a right to demand and has for a long time been in a quiet way receiving from abroad.
*2
The fact is that in the fields of philology and English, especially, the south has for years stood in the advanced line. Such men as Basil Gildersleeve, Dr. Shepherd, the late William Winston Valentine, James A. Harrison, Joynes, Garnett, Thomas R. Price, and others have already been accorded eminent places among the authorities of the world on these subjects, while among those who are fast coming into prominence and will soon take positicon alongside of the older workers are Hall, Currell, and many more.
In the domain of poetry, which is a domain cognate to those of philology and English, if measured by the standard of criticism applied to Sidney Lanier by the English press, the south has forced the homage of the foreign court of letters. Lanier has been adjudged as having gone further in systematizing English verse and giving each word in his poetry a meaning beyond its rhythm effect than any other American poet. In the matter of establishing laws of versification he is ranked by some English critics with, and by others above, the idolized Tennyson. As we have before stated he bears the same relation to the general school of English lyric verse that Wagner bears to the general school of music.
When we remember that the men whom we have named are the products of southern civilization, and that the roads they have traveled lead back to southern schools and colleges, we have no patience with our own people who would send their sons to the nort. to be educated.—Richmond Dispatch
THE ENGLISH VIEW OF AMERICAN LITER
**
ATURE.
The two nations of the civilized world who have most in common are the two whose acquaintance with each other are in many respects the most imperfect. The relationship existing between Englishmen and Americans makes them ignorant of their ignorance of each other. The most intelligent Europeans often make the most startling mistakes about literary matters in America. Earlier English critics raised the name of Longfellow to the highest pinnacle of fame, while later ones dismiss him as a common place poet who made "fair translations and copied selections from foreign authors for the amusement of the less educated portion of the home public." Once Sidney Smith dismissed all American books as worthless. Now London journals are proclaiming that
Untraveled Englishmen know much less of America as a whole—less of its geography, history, constitution, and the lives of its great men, than Americans do of England. The English are more familiar with the Acropolis than with the western Capitol, with Pisistratus than with Jefferson Davis, with Tiberius Gracchus than with William Lloyd Garrison. "An Englishman, visiting Boston, took up a copy of Webster's dictionary with the remark—He was a wonderful man to find time in the midst of his great political career to write that dictionary; but what a sad end he had!"
More than a fair proportion of theologians, jurists and naturalists have come from America, but with the exception of Russia, no great modern country has produced so few works likely to become classical. The pursuit of wealth has been the leading impulse in America where such un-passed advantages have existed for gaining it. Most of the originality of Americans has been expended in making machinery instead of making verses. Almost all American literature is inspired with confidence in labor, the spirit of the workman who feels thoroughly prepared for competition; of the farmer who is monarch of all he surveys.
New England represents America's best life and highest inspirations, its large promise and scant performance. We must seek for the explanation of the peculiarities of American literature in the physical circumstances and moral conditions of the country. In America nature is of great extent, and a traveler is attracted by nothing so much as the size of the rivers, lakes, forests, mountains and plains. Even Niagara itself owes its magnificence to its great size. So the Americans have generally modeled their ideas of art and literature after the same standard. They accordingly have gained in extent what they have lost in age.
The American mind is composed of a strange mixture of pertinacity, and fitfulness, and delights in speculative and practical, social and political experiments, as Shakerism, Mormonism and Pantagamy. The great fault of the people is impatience. The mass have never learned that what is what is worth doing at all is worth doing well. This habit of haste and changefulness has a very injurious effect on the literature. Lawlessness, inaccuracy, and irreverence are most conspicuously developed in America. The country is not only democratic but youthful without the modesty of youth. Vehemence, vigor and wit are common, but good taste, profundity, and imagination. rare Americans are given much to exaggeration in wit. The following example is from Emerson: An English lady on the Rhine, hearing a German speaking of her party as foreigners, exclaimed, 'No, we are not foreigners, we are English; it is you that are foreigners.'
Up to the present time American literature has been an offshoot or prolongation of the literature of Europe. "Washington Irving follows the style of Addison; Fenmore Cooper in his land pieces always remembers Scott; all their writers for thirty years have copied the European style. If the people of the United States had spoken a language of their own, it is probable they would have found originality more easily."

Why cannot some method of referring to the centuries be devised by which the present confusion may be avoided? When, for instance,"the tenth century is spoken of, who is there that does not have to stop and say to himself:" Let's see, that is from 900 to 1000? After much trial and tribulation one does finally know without reckoning that the nineteenth century refers to the present century. But in the case of the centuries less frequently mentioned one invariably has to stop and consider. It would avoid much confusion if, instead of using an ordinal before the word "century" one should say "900 century" or simply "900," or whatever it might be.

There is a strong feeling that the advantages of the University are limited to the members of the various sporting teams. This is well founded and should be remedied, but nothing can be done for those who will not help themselves. The various sports, foot ball, base ball, boating and tennis have been looked after by the enthusiasts interested in each, and by the generous help of the friends of the students of K. U. over the state are now practically independent. They are all out-door sports, have good fields for both practice and match games and the facilities for keeping men in training through the winter months. They, the most important, on account of the advertising they give the school, have been provided for.
Attention should now be given to the general health and exercise of every student in the University. Too many think "Oh! I'm coming all right, I don't feel good, but I've so much work to do," and study themselves sick. If everyone in the University would consider it his personal duty to "whoop up" the gymnasium we would soon have not only that but a director for it. Our
friends stand ready to help us, manv of them appreciating our need more than we ourselves and the moment the students wake up and go to work with spirit the gymnasium will become a reality as McCook Field has. R.
Once more we hear a little speculation about the oratorical contest. But is there to be nothing more than a little speculation? Is the University again to go down in ignominious defeat before the main colleges of the state? If she is not, something must be done, and done quickly; something which will awaken Mount Oread as she never was awakened before. For the past four or five years oratory has steadily declined in the University Various causes have been assigned for this decline, such as the decline of the literary societies, the lack of instruction in elocution and the abolishment of chapel rhetoricals. Probably these causes go far in accounting for it, but is there not another cause which has been largely overlooked, but which in reality has excised a very potent influence? Is it not the absence heretofore from the oratorical contests of the University of an element which never fails to awaken enthusiasm wherever it appears, and which as was shown by the interstate contest of last year is able at times to carry everything before it? What is it that can re-awaken the eloquence of the University of Kansas, if not the presence of the fair sex on the platform? Who is it that can brighten her fading glory if not the Kansas girls? Never in the history of the University has she been noted for the beauty, the intelligence and the argumentative capacity of her young ladies as at the present time. Now therefore, is the appointed time. Let the girls of K. S. U. come forward and do their duty. C. S. G.

ANOTHER VICTORY.
The Kansas Champions Defeat the Nebraska State University Foot Ball Eleven by Superior Team Work.
The Kansas State University team played their second game of the Inter-State League series with the Nebraska State University eleven, at Lincoln, Neb., last Saturday, and as usual, came off victorious. But it was undoubtedly the hardest tussle our team has had the season.
It was indeed a most disagreeable day for a game. A high wind, in fact almost a gale, whistled across the broad prairies of Nebraska, bearing with it clouds of dust which nearly blinded both the players and spectators. The grounds were in a bad condition.
The Nebraska team being on the home grounds was the favorite, and naturally the scarlet and cream colors and the college yell of University Nebraska were more conspicuous than the crimson and Rock Chalk! Jay Hawk! K. U. cry of the Kansas eleven.
Over on the east side of the field a delegation from Doane. College had taken their stand and the way they yelled for Kansas indicated that they had an old grudge against the Nebraskans.
The game was very exciting. There was no slugging and both teams were in good humor from start to finish.
The Kansas team was in bad shape and played two substitutes. They had heard a great deal about the effective work of "Uncle Jimmy" Canfield's colored half back, but went into the game determined to win, Kinzie and Springer did good work behind the line. Dum retired from left end early in the game and A. Foster took his place. Sheepard did not play his usual game because he had a sprained ankle.
Flippin was the life of the Nebraska team. Without him the team could do nothing. Nine out of ten times Flippin made the play and generally made good rushes against the Kansas' line. But no man can win a game without proper support.
K. U. won the toss and chose the south goal, having the advantage of the wind.
Nebraska starts ball at center with a Vaud gains 10 yards. They soon loose ball on fumble.
Matteon runs and advances the ball 30 yards. By series of scrimmages and rushes 35 yards more are gained. Nebraska gets four downs but fail to carry it toward their opponent's goal and ball goes to K. U. K U. puts the ball across the line and Platt kicks a goal. Score 6 to 0.
Nebraska again has ball at center but soon loses it. Then the teams struggle for a long time before any gain is made on either side. At last Piatt punts down field. Mackett catches the ball and starts back, but is tackled and thrown so hard that the rubber sphere slips from his arms. Kinzie grabs the ball and runs halfway across the field and makes another touch down. Another goal is kicked and K. U. has 12, Nebraska 0.
During the second half neither team scores, although they make desperate struggles. When time is called the ball was in Nebraska territory.
BANJO heads are often made of the skins of asses and calves. The banjo players of the University might obtain good heads for their instruments if they would skin one or two of the Lawrence ward politicians.
The players lined up as follows:
NEBERKA.  POSITION.  KANASAR.
A. P. Yont.  Lett end.  Duna
Howe.  Left tackle.  Matteos
J. G. Yont. 左 guard.  Hammil

Several new students since election.
Is the legal fraternity a thing of the past?
The case of Lawrence Merchant vs. John Minor was argued in moot court before Judge Brownell Friday. Judgment for defendant. Wolf and Dum appeared on behalf of plaintiff. Hopkins and Bronson for defendant.
The seniors have taken up the subject of Pleadings under the instruction of Hon. A. W. Benson. The regular recitation will be held in the court house every evening at 7 p.m.
At the organization of the district court of K. S. U., J. H. Mitchell was elected judge, L. J. Mason, clerk of the court; R. M. Haymer, prosecuting attorney, and C. C. Swarms, sheriff. It will convene in regular session Saturday, November 19, at 1:30 p. m.
The Kent Club in regular session, Saturday morning, elected R. M. Haymer president, and Park secretary. The question for debate was, Resolyeed, That Prohibition in Kansas is a failure and that the amendment should be repealed. Affirmative, Ellis, Challiss and Herr. Negative, Jenkins, Bennett, Bronson and Brooks. S. A. B.
At Baker University.
They have great times in Baldwin City. About a year ago it took a two day's trial in justice's court to acquit a young man of the heinous offense of saying "Boohoo" to a member of the city council and today comes the startling intelligence that thirty-four Baker University students were arrested the other night for giving the college yell on Main street. The boys were celebrating the return of the football team from their Denver trip.
Most of the students are upper class men and the professors and students are very indignant that municipal authority should tyrannize in a college town.

"Lovingly yours," she used to write,
that was after our summer's fun:
Mark what the roches and waves had done
"Lovingly yours," he said, then
When college began.
*"We're sincerely,"-"ah! a change,
Then she forgets the lesson she taught;
Somebody else is paying court,
And we sincerely, that a judge
she scarcely ought.
"Cordially"—this is very tense,
such nonchalance will never do;
That summer's tadder from her view.
"Cordially"—the word.
I wonder—who?
"Yours," *ah, well, I expected that,
That was after his winter's fan;
Mark what parties and hope had done.
"Yours in haste," *I* expected that
Ere college was done.

A conference of professors and teachers, representing the Chicago University and the high schools and preparatory schools throughout the county, opened in Cobb's Hall Friday. The object of the conference was to discuss all questions relating to the university and the school, and it is expected that this initial step will develop into a great autumnal gathering similar to the Chautauqua summer gatherings—Inter Ocean.
The University Press, having in charge the printing and publishing of the University of Chicago, will soon begin the important work for which it was established.

The man who hasn't anything to say and then says it, is usually most enjoyed by his friends when he is absent; and the man who can condense his speech is never appreciated even so much as he deserves.

The Hesperian indulges in a column and a half of indignation at the Missouri foot ball management because they mildly suggest that it would be more agreeable to them if Flippin, the colored man, did not play in the game with their team. It is no wonder the Missourians would like to play the Nebraska team minus the great (?) half back, but on the other hand the northerners do not ap preciate the inbred hatred of the southerner for a man with a black face.
Chicago University opens with a roll of between 800 and 900 students. Whatever money will do is being done by the

A yell, characteristic of the surroundings, but not suited to efface taste has already been proposed by some enterprise individual. It is:

Kansas Books and Educational Publications.
It will greatly aid the Kansas exhibit in educational matters if the authors of publishers of Kansas made books of all kinds will contribute at least two copies to the board of directors for the exhibit. One may be placed with the general exhibit of schools and colleges and one in the state building where Kansas may feel the larger pride in products of Kansas brews. The board is especially desirous of procuring files of all the educational journals issued in the state at any time, and will bind them, doubtless, for the exhibit. They may be sent to Supt. Geo. W. Winans, president of the board of directors, at any time within the next three months, but the sooner the better.
Should any wish to furnish more than the two copies required for the exhibit, hoping to attract the attention of distinguished visitors, the board will doubtless arrange to care for such extra copies in a satisfactory manner.—Industrialist.
Seminary Notes.
The second number of the second volume of Seminary Notes was issued today. This is the publication of the University department of sociology and history. It contains original papers on economical, social and historical questions by students and professors. Every number shows an improvement over previous issues, and the last one i particularly good.
The first article is Prof. Blackmar's Columbian day address at Nebraska University and is very interesting and valuable. Prof. F, H. Hodder has an article on special charters in Chicago, giving a history of the development of the municipal laws of that place and making interesting comparisons with other cities. Besides these there are the reports of the regular Seminary meetings and some good educational suggestions
Moot Senate.
SeminaryNotes is a model of neatness, special pains being taken in that direction. It is printed at the JOURNAL office.
Prof. Adams has a few remarks in the November Seminary Notes on the unlimited admission of law students to the moot senate. Recently the law students met to organize a senate of their own, but decided to defer decisive steps until they should see whether arrangements could be made for entering the collegiate moot senate. Last year only law students taking collegiate work were eligible to membership. So far this year,the matter of admission of law students has not been decided. There are reasons of course both for and against their admission. But the University is afflicted with too many organizations already. The admission of the students from North College would obviate the necessity of two senates, would serve to bring these students into closer relations with the collegiate and also to keep the senate from languishing by the numbers and enthusiasm they would bring.

THE CRIMSON CONQUERED,
The Orange of Baker Waves Triumph-18 to 0.
The Triangu.ar League pennant is lost. The inevitable must some times happen, although we hardly expected it so soon.
Saturday's game at Baldwin was witnessed by about a thousand persons, two hundred of whom were supporters of the crimson. But early in the game it was seen that our team could not win and the crimson was folded away for another time, when we know it will wave triumphant.
Baker's team was in fine condition and played the best game of the season. Crawford has worked out a good team indeed. Every man played well. The line seemed a perfect wall against the rushes of our team. Behind the line, half backs Taylor and Haskins were terrors. Toomey at fullback did very effective work. His tackling and goal kicking are especially worthy of notice.
Our team seemed just the reverse. Every point in the team was weak. They did not work together and played a very lifeless game. The team cannot be blamed for this entirely. It was found necessary a few days before the game to change nearly all of the team from the positions they have played hitherto. Three of the regular men were unable to play and several of those who did, were in bad condition from the recent game with Nebraska and two, from having attended a turkey pullin' the night before. Platt was unable to play on account of having to attend court. Dum has been claid up with a sprained ankle. Champlin went as substitute and played some in the last half, but he had not recovered from the Nebraska game. No team can play an effective game in such a condition as this. We regret that they were allowed to play.
The entertainment given by Unity club Saturday night was witnessed by a large audience, and everybody voted it a success. The musical part of the program consisted of a song by the male quartette, and two instrumental pieces by Mrs. Straffon. Miss Tisworth was ill and did not sing. Dr. Barker's Great Invention, a very clever little farce, was capitally done, the actors all taking their parts in an exceedingly natural manner. Charles Griffin took the part of the eccentric old Doctor; Clarence Sears, Fred Wilder, Kate Menet and Miss Corbin filled the other parts. The change from old age to youth was well done and the audience showed by frequent applause that it was well pleased. A neat sum was added to Unity club treasury and the popularity of the entertainments of which this was the first is established.
A great many people visited the natural history museum at the University this week to see the collection of animals that will be taken to Chicago as a part of the Kansas exhibit at the World's Fair. The exhibit excites the admiration of every one and is worth going a good way to see. The museum will be open today and this evening. This will be the last chance to see the collection before it is taken away.
The Lawrence Journal of a October 6 had the following: Baker has a very strong foot ball team this year according to all reports and has arranged a number of games with first class teams. So with these facts the Kansas University team doesn't want to throw all its energy into foreign games when the chome foe is more than worthy their steel.

SATURDAY's game shows that cripples can not play foot-ball, that sound players can not play well out of their regular positions, that stricter rules regulating the habits of players must be made and enforced.
Ir is fit that Kansas, the home of John Brown, should be, the first northern state to elect a confederate soldier to the house of representatives. It shows that, whatever demagogues say in regard to the matter, the old soldiers are going to let the sixties take care of themselves; and that they, as voters, are considering the question of today.
UNIVERSITY athletes practice. It is now proposed to have at the Columbian exposition contests in all sorts of athletic sports of whatever nationality. In variety and in athletic qualities it is hoped to eclipse anything ever attempted in this line. Why should not the K. U be represented?
That paragraph was written before the Baker game. At present our thoughts on the subject are like this: ? ? ? ? ?
THAT the two Betas playing on our team when Baker disgraced us should, the night preceding the game, wilfully remain up till dim gray morning began to light the cast, argues, either a lack of reason, or culpable disregard for the best interests of the team. In either case, whether it is a lack of reason, or lack of the proper regard for the honor of the team, they have forfeited their right to play on the team. In case they are allowed to remain on the eleven, they must consider it an undeserved favor and the public will consider it a leniency dangerous to the team's honor.
WILLIAM DEAN HOWELLS, Robt. Louis Stevenson, Mark Twain and Mrs. Burnett, we are informed, each received for literary work $20,000 a year. Right here, we desire to say we are willing to trade places with any or all of them. They may consider negotiations open. And we hope they will not through modest coyness delay a matter of business in which we are much interested. Although we are a member of the Kan-
sss State University, weare one the people; we were one of them them before the people's party became influential; and, notwithstanding our personal acquaintance with a number of the once invincible foot-ball eleven, we are not haughty, consequently any of the hominum multarum literarum named above may approach us with confidence. We are not afraid of paying positions and never were. And we want it distinctly understood that we mean business.
THE scholarly method of study de mands that, as long as one may for himself test a conclusion, one shall accept no authority whatever;other men's decisions and suggestions shall be taken as aids—the more of them the better—but, as long as one can make personal investigations on the subject under consideration, other men's decisions and suggestions unaided by personal investigation on the part of the student, shall not be considered conclusive. Such a method study requires work; but the student, who follows that method six months, becomes a power in the intellectual world. He himself becomes an authority.
We are going to put our editorial speeches on. If we had it, we would take a little snuff too; but we haven't it, and under the circumstances, we consider snuff taking indiscreet. We're up to snuff, none the less, and, as soon as we can mount our three legged stool editorially, we are going to look through our speeces down into the world where the rest of you poor mortals are. We have grave thoughts, and many of them. But then we were instructed to be very careful what we do with our precious stones, and we see no reason why we should do otherwise with our precious thoughts.
This much, however, we will say. Thanksgiving gives but once a year. That may not be a very new thought, but it is a most wonderful thought. You will not appreciate it, of course, till you see it we don't explain it. But where are we? Oh yes, yes.
It is time for you to leave the library, forsake the recitation room, quit your books, and ride home on a couple of rails. When you get there receive your home girl with an open heart and two open arms. That is, of course, figuratively. Never be indiscreet in these matters, you might make your mother cry, and appear to the world as an ungrateful wretch. That would never do. It grieves our editorial heart to think of it. If, instead of having a home girl, you are a girl going home, follow our teaching as you follow your nose; open our arms and your heart and et your friends walk in. That is, always figuratively. We wouldn't for anything have you literally take us. We wouldn't have you take us at all, in fact, we are already engaged for six months. And, though it may seem a long, long time, we aim to keep our word for half hat period; fashion requires that in these matters one hold faith something near him long; and we aim to be fashionable, if we can't pay our debts—that's fashionable too. If you are so disrustful and hypochondriacal that you not even when we are sitting on our editorial stool and writing by the aid of our editorial spees,—why then nothing remains for us to do but to refer you to the fashionable tailors; they will tell you that for a fashionable suit they must charge a double price, because they can't collect anything on half the suits of a fashionable cut. But where are we? Oh yes. Dr. Jekyll has this week been the more prominent of the two who comprise the WE of this staff. Next week Mr. Hyde will again have gained the ascendency. On his sagacious breast you all may pillow your heads with trust and confidence—provided only you all don't try to pillow your heads there at the same time. Dr. Jekyll is to disappear for twelve months from public view. By the end of the year both of the component members of the WE will be entirely forgotten. But at present Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde do exist and unite in wishing a pleasant vacation to all.
LITERARY DEPARTMENT.
Heiley soring, loudly soring, on his down,
bod of ease.
And so long! I tried to wake him;
And with my strong strength shake him;
Yet he would not cease.
MY ROOMMATE
For, some hidden force within him, wrapped in sleep the snorer kept.
Though with pillow I did round him, and with watch I confound him," Yet, alas, be slept.
Then I lrought, for weeks behind me have
reasted in the leafed.
Space was sleep my soul allaying.
What were we doing that the braying
of a long-eared beast.
In the future, then i shouted, will my rest be thus disturbed,
Will my stumbber be molested
By this noise so much detested!
No reply was heard.
Yet my courage did not falter, as the snoring louder got,
And from out the bed I kicked him,
And with two brass pins I pricked him,
But he felt them not.
He lay snoring, loudly snoring, on the Brussels carpet fine.
Then I left to save my bacon.
For I knew he'd soon awaken.
As 'twas breakfast time.

William Black makes it his aim to write a novel every half year. When working, he loves intense quiet, and in fact, is unable to bear the slightest noise. Consequently for his study, he selects a room at the top of the house. He is very fond of the sea, and he is never so happy as when rocking on its billows or listening to its ceaseless splash.
THE MAY-POLE AT MERRY MOUNT.
During the year 1620 Thomas Weston sent a company of about forty men from England to make a settlement in Massachusetts. They located about twenty miles north of Plymouth and called the place Weymouth. Owing to the mismanagement, the colony did not flourish and the place was abandoned.
In 1625 Captain Wollaston came over with a small party and settled on the south side of Massachusetts Bay, not far from Weston's settlement. The place was named Mount Wollaston in honor of its founder. It is now the town of Quincy. The party consisted of Wollaston and his partner Thomas Morton, with about thirty other persons, mostly servants. Wollaston, finding this system of industry unsuited to the country, sold part of the servants into slavery in Virginia. He left the remainder under the charge of a deputy. Thomas Morton was a pleasure seeker and had come to America to enjoy unrestrained liberty. After Wollaston had left the colony, Morton persuaded the laborers that it would be better to remain with him as independent settlers than to be sold into perpetual slavery. Accordingly they drove Wollaston's agent out of the settlement and renamed the plantation Merry Mount. It became a trading post where the Indians could obtain powder and shot, and it also afforded refuge to runaway servants.
As the object of the colonists was mere pleasure, mirth-makers of every sort were to be found among them. They brought with them all the hereditary pastimes of England, but their veneration for the Maypole was what characterized them as a colony. They called it the altar of their religion and made merry around it at least once in every month. As described by Hawthorne, this pole was a tall and slender pine tree. From its top floated a silken banner with all colors of the rainbow in it. The lower part of the pole was decorated with green boughs fastened with gay colored ribbons. Flowers were strenued everywhere, and everything bespoke happiness and joylity for the gay colony. Around the pole stood a strange crowd, band in hand. Some were musked to represent the beasts of the forest, while others were distorted features as of men or women. The Purtans compared the masqueraders to "those souls with whom their superstition peopled the black wilderness." In the midst of this circle stood a gaily dressed couple and with them an English priest. "Here," said
be, "stand the lord and lady of the May, whom I, a clerk of Oxford, am presently to join in holy matrimony. Dance now and show this couple what life is made of and how airily they should go through it." Dancing and drinking were the great features of the day. A song was composed specially for the occasion, in which everyone had a separate part. These proceedings were not looked on very favorably by the other settlements. Eight of the surrounding colonies promised the Plymouth people to share the expenses incurred if they would break up such meetings. Governor Bradford sent a remonstrance to Morton but it was not heeded. The merry-makers were unwilling to have their gay rule of sunshine and mirth replaced by the sober Puritan order under which sermons and psalms would be heard continually. The Puritans saw that force must be used and Captain Standish was sent with a few men to take the plantation. No resistance was made and Morton was taken prisoner and sent to England. The Maypole was cut down immediately and the Puritans felt that by the fall of the only Maypole in New England, all such frivolities and mirth-making were ended. Morton gives some account of the affair in his writings, and though very bitter against the Puritans, does not deny the charges made against him.

A word about artificial writing. There are some writers whose reading has not been intensive or who are of a nature not to profit by what they read in such a manner as to use language correctly; whenever they are at a loss for a word or in doubt as to its proper use, they turn to a dictionary, and select a word or usage no matter whether they have ever before seen that word or usage. The result is a haphazard sometimes ludicrous use of words. They will use words with meanings and in places never before known to human eye or ear. No one but a great genius and scholar can safely take such liberties with words. A dictionary simply records in a matter-of-fact business way the usage of the best writers. A person can never learn to use language correctly from a dictionary alone. He must go to the sources from which dictionaries are compiled. He must 'read', and read a great deal and 'absorb not only thought but also the form and words in which that thought is expressed.

Porter Edminster, Law '90, is now a prosperous attorney at law in San Francisco. Since leaving K. S. U. he has traveled some, visiting Colorado, Texas and Mexico. The following is an extract from a recent letter from him: "I suppose that by this time it is getting quite cold in Kansas. You ought to see an autumn day in California. Today it is as warm and balmy as May or September. There is not a cloud to be seen in the whole sky. The Bay that is sometimes so stormy, looks as peaceful as the Kaw, and through the Golden Gate a whaling ship that has spent all the summer away up in the Arctic regions, is slowly coming in, back to the port from which she sailed about a year ago.
Within less than 1st dozen years the literary world has lost many of its most distinguished men. Carlyle, 1881, George Eliot, 1881, Longfellow, 1882, Emerson, 1882, Matthew Arnold, 1888, Robert Browning, 1888, Kingslake, 1891, Lowell, 1891, Walt Whitman, 1892, George William Curtis, 1893, and Tennyson.
All workers in the library will be glad to know that Miss Watson has just received the latest volume of Poole's Index to Periodical Literature. It covers the period from Jan. 1, 1882 to Jan. 1, 1887.
Prof. Hodder has just secured for the library Benton's "Abridgement of the Debates in Congress from 1789 to 1856," in sixteen volumes. The set is handsomely bound in half calf and was bought at a bargain.
Another book of great interest and value to students of English literature, lately placed in the library, is Vol. VIII
of Henry Morley's "English Writers" It deals with the period from Surrey to Spenser and contains material heretofore rather scarce in the library on the beginnings of English tragedy and comedy—Ferrex and Porrux, Gammer Gurton's Needle and Ralph Royster Doyster.
The Annual.
The Annual board have come to the conclusion that it will be impossible to get the Annual out by the holidays, if the work to be put into it is to be nothing but first class. In all probability, therefore the publication will be delayed until sometime in February. Mean time the class editors have begun work, copy is being collected by them and by the board, and it is hoped that this work will be completed by the first of December.
The Moss Engraving company will do the half-tone work, and this is a guarantee that it will be well done. The classes and the schools will be given an opportunity to pay for the designs in case they want better and more artistic ones than the board of publication can otherwise afford to put in. The real cost of the book will probably be much nearer a dollar and a half than one dollar, though the latter is the price at which the book will be sold. Hence it will be seen that if the various classes and schools wish to be well represented, they must contribute something to this extra cost.
It is with sincere regret that the board announces the entire failure of its attempts to stir up some literary interest among the students by its offer of prizes for a story and a song to be published in the Annual. Only a single contribution has been received for the story contest, and not one for the song contest. While the prize offered was not large in either case—ten dollars worth of books for the story and the same for the song—yet it was hoped that we had at least a few students with enough literary ability to write for even so small a prize as that, especially in view of the fact that publication in such a book as the Annual ought of itself to be looked upon as no inconsiderable honor. The effort how ever has failed, and though there may be a prize story, there will certainly be no prize song in the Annual. Something equally good however, or perhaps better than either would have been, will be substituted for one or both of them, and the value and interest of the Annual will in nowise be diminished by this indifference in our literary people.
THERE has been much interest shown in college circles regarding the stand of President Harper, of the University of Chicago, against fraternities. In a recent speech to the students President Harper referring to college secret societies said: "In the judgment of the faculty the ends sought by these societies, so far as they are laudable, may be secured by other means, which should be free from the objections of secrecy, of rigid exclusiveness, and of antagonism to the democratic spirit which is inherent to the highest scholarship and manhood, and the most exalted citizenship; and it would be deeply gratified if the high purposes and lofty feeling of the body of students will lead them to cooperate with it by voluntarily excluding everything that makes against a broadly fraternal spirit and a primary concern with the intellectual aims for which the University of Chicago was founded."
The menest man on earth is the one who fails to return borrowed books. One member of the University is just now in need of about half a dozen books which have been borrowed. When a person is kind enough to loan valuable books it is an act of grossest ingratitude not to return them promptly.
The route for the annual tour of the University Glee club has been selected and it includes all the large cities in Kansas, and a number of the leading towns in Colorado and Nebraska. The club will start just before the winter recess.

LITERARY CLUBS.
Of late there has been somewhat of an interest taken in the establishment of small literary clubs among the men and women of the university. Such a movement certainly indicate a desire for mental improvement, and as such it should be welcomed, if for no better reason than that it will tend to counteract the influence of a feature of university life which is anything but intellectual.
The benefits to be derived from membership in a small club can scarcely be appreciated except by those who have had such a privilege. In a close organization of eight to twelve persons a freer expression of opinion may be obtained than in a large society; and he who in a mixed society would from a feeling of modesty refrain from taking an active part, will, in the smaller organization, become as one of a band of friends eager for intellectual improvement. It will be seen that the purpose of the small club is not to supplant the large and hence necessarily mixed society, but to prepare a man by practice in extempore work to make a place for himself and his ideas the more formal large society.
The value of the power of speaking extemporaneously can scarcely be overestimated. It has been noticed frequently that men who are members of small clubs that encourage extemporaneous speaking have in the heat of debate a great advantage over those who have had no such practice.
Apart from the opportunities for mental improvement, a club will afford its members a great deal of general culture, and will round off the sharp corners in one's character, will cause intolerant ideas to give place to those which are more in accordance with reason, and will form friendships, which are the source of many pleasant recollections of college life. These and many more advantages are the result of the work of an active and energetic literary club. Some of these arguments apply equally well to fraternities, but it must be remembered that intellectual culture is what we are insisting upon.
It requires not very much effort to organize and to put in running order one of these clubs. A few students can meet and adopt a small constitution, or no constitution at all, and the work can be immediately begun. Two hours a week will give one all the preparation necessary for a meeting of the club; in fact excellent results have been obtained from meetings for which no preparation at all had been made, the work being entirely extemporaneous.'
There are many students in this institution who are willing, and eyean anxious to aid any band of students desiring to organize an association of this kind.

A Talk On Agassiz.
The very large audience that greeted Dr. David S. Jordan last Friday evening at University Chapel, was delightfully entertained by one of the most interesting lectures ever delivered on Mt. Oread. Chancellor Snow introducing his distinguished guest, spoke pleasantly of his first acquaintance with Dr. Jordan eighteen years ago.
The speaker announced as his subject "Agassiz as a Teacher." He gave a sketch of the life of the world's greatest naturalist, telling how he had come from a family six generations of which had been clergymen. It was the one desire of Agassiz when a youth to become the first naturalist of his time. At Munich he found great teachers who added to his thirst for knowledge. He boarded with a professor and in time got his degrees. At the same time he spent the summer in the high Alps. He was fond of the mountains and adventure and on one of the great rocks of the mountains of Switzerland has carved his name. And it was while here that the formation and epochs of that country were worked out by Agassiz.
fossils. He lived in poverty but while staying in Paris was met and dined by Humbolt.
Agassiz came to America in the height of his fame. He came to study the differences in glacial formation in Europe and America. He came out of curiosity and stayed on account of the freedom of thought and speech in this country. He found a great field but few tools. After a short stay Agassiz believed he could have more influence and spread it more in American than in Europe. He was dissatisfied, however, with the college work in the country and was one of the first to teach the idea that course was merely the beining of an education.
He afterwards went to Paris to study
The method of this great man as a teacher was to give his students real objects to study rather than tell them what he did or had found. He told them there was something else. It is said that one year's work under Agassiz was worth five under most teachers. He was a strong advocate of the belief that there is no book on natural history equal to nature herself. He was an earnest and enthusiastic worker and gave his ideas to please any kind of an audience for just what they are worth.
After the lecture a reception was given Dr. Jordan in Chancellor Snow's office.

A student came down from K. S. U.
To buy him a suit brand splinter new.
He went to a dozen stores to buy
And saw nary a suit that caught his eye.
Until he got to the corner store—
There struck what he wanted and looked no more.

But most of the boys when they come to town
At once on the corner store drop down.
They have learned that no house in the city supplies
Such handsome clothes at so low a price.
And they always are treated fair and square
And that's why K. U, boys trade there.

Fair twins, both blonde are they.

These russet shoes or mine.

The success of a terms work in school depends largely upon the wav it is begun. If a good beginning is not made there is a tendency to drag a long, thinking that next term will be soon enough to go to work in earnest. Much is lost in this way. Be vigilant and make a good start — Holton Informer.

No. 2 of the Kansas University Quarterly has reached our reading table. The magazine is well printed and contains over fifty pages of valuable contributions to science. It is a credit to the faculty of the University.—Industrialist.
The last issue of the Cornell Era was the "Inauguration Number" and infolded a handsome engraving of the new president of that school, J G. Schurman. The Era contains the inaugural address delivered on Nov. 11. It is a strong and inspiring production indicating as all friends of the institution believe, the beginning of a new prosperity tor Cornell University.
One would take the Holton Reformer for an organ of the prohibition party rather than a college paper, if a few of its editors were omitted.
The College Gem, of Lexington, Mo., says "The Argo-Reporter devotes too much of its brief space to locals, however its editorials are good." Thank you for the compliment and as to the locals we expect to give them the chief place in three issues each month for it is in them that the average student takes the most interest. This however, is our Literary number, and we ask you to take a look at it before making too general a statement—Argo Reporter. You are right, neighbor Argo. Stick to your position.
The University of Nebraska has abolished the time honored names of senior, junior, sophomore and freshman and in the future no distinction will be made in nomenclature, save in the case of the freshman year, which will be known as the first year of residence.

The handsome literary edition for November of the Argo Reporter appeared last week. Under Athletics the editor endeavors to tell the truth about Washburn foot ball matters and succeeds in exciting the sympathy of every true bred college man, to say the least. He incidentally pays a tribute to our faculty and chancellor which is all the more appreciated because unexpected: "We once stood for a whole afternoon, with feet on a six inch scantling and hands clinging to the top of the board fence around the K. U. athletic grounds, while a few feet away stood Chancellor Snow in the same position cheering the K. S. U. team on to victory with all the enthusiasm of a boy, and we ceased to wonder why K. U. always won. Chancellor Snow headed the triumphal procession when the boys celebrated their Denver victory, and together with the whole face y has taken an active and vital interest in K. U. athletics."

The Next Lecture.
The next entertainment in the lecture course will be given at Bowersock's opera house Thursday evening, Dec. 1. It will be a lecture by the Hon. Chas. Emory Smith, ex minister to Russia and editor of the Philadelphia Press. Mr. Smith is one of the best known men in this country, and it was by the merest chance that the University lecture bureau was so fortunate as to make this engagement with him. The subject of his lecture will be: "Are we worse than our fathers?" Of this lecture on the occasion of its first delivery, the New York Sun declared that it was a pity that every student in the country could not have heard it.
The chart will be a Leis' drug store and will be open at 7:30 o'clock Tuesdav evening. Nov 29.
The Faculty Concert.
The concert given by the faculty of the school of music at Music Hall last Thursday night, was one of the most pleasant concerts ever given in the city. The hall was crowded and everyone was felighted with the splendid program given.
The interior of Music Hall was very prettily fixed up and its attractiveness added much to the pleasure of the occasion. The young ladies of the senior class acted as ushers. After the concert a reception was given the audience and helped make the evening plessuer.
AMUSEMENTS.

"A Social Session," to be presented at the opera house Friday night. Nov. 25, is one of the funniest plays ever written. Riplete with singing, dancing and specialties; a skillful blending of delicious humor, sparkling scenes, melodious songs, popular music, bristling with the livelies: sort of funny situations. A continuous stream of laughter from beginning to end.
Saturday night. Nov. 26, the famous Anderson comedians will appear in the most brilliant of musical farce comedies "Two Old Cronies," with an immense cast. The greatest serpentine dancer, our whirlwind trio, the march drill of the lady police, our cute and modest little widows, "the man who wrote Ta-ra-ra Boom de ay," our fine effects and elegant costumes, the song and dance of the dudes. Other eminently pleasing features.
Fred Bassett was convicted in District Court after a three days' trial, of the dastardly crime committed last month in the shooting of Will E. Higgins and Jack Cracraft.
Bassett Convict d.
Alex Mitchell, assisted by J. W. Green conducted the prosecution, against J. Q.
A. Norton, Geo. J. Barker and W. W. Newton for the defense.
Bassett will be sentenced next week. He was convicted of assault, which if death had ensued, would have been man-slaughter in the fourth degree, the punishment ranging from six months in the county jail to five years in the penentiary, at the discretion of the court.
The defense made an able showing considering the hopelessness of their cause.
Old Mr. Potter's familiar figure will be seen no more bustling along the streets of Lawrence. Wednesday morning he went up to Snow Hall to look at Prof. Dy he's animals before they should go to Chicago. While standing viewing Gen Custer's war horse Comanche, his heart suddenly ceased its action and he fell dead to the floor. Mr Potter was eighty-six years old and a long-time resident of Lawrence. He was always spry and cheerful up to the very day of his death, and used often with pardonable pride to boast of his long continued physical strength.
Last Monday's Kansas City Journal contained a good account of Prof Dyche's exhibit for the World's Fair. The same account appeared in the Record Tuesday night.

Candy is not a necessity, but a luxury, and when luxuries are inadulged they should be of the best. There is an a man, woman or child who is so fond of candy that he boasts candy, and did they ever stop to think that there is a difference in candy? one candy is mad of impure and refuse good- and is her inferior covered up with fancy wrappers, while candy when pure is on the stomach only presses the way to a relaxation of health.
