NEVER DEFEATED.
The Regular Team Finishes the Season with a Clean Record. -Missouri Goes Down Fighting.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, DECEMBER 2, 1892
K. U.
The foot ball season is over and the regular team of Kansas University again proudly unfurls her banner to the breeze with its ensign "Never Defeated." We have played the strongest teams in
By winning Saturday's game the pennant of four states, viz: Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas is given to Kansas University. Colorado and Illinois are also our victims.
The Missouri game was stubbornly contested. No doubt it was the hardest fought and most scientific game of the season. Both teams had made special efforts to pluck the penant and Kansas did the plucking as usual.
the west and defeated every one with a score of which any university might be proud. Prof. Shepard can not be given too much praise for his success in training and handling the team. The Kansas University finishes its second foot ball season with a clean record.
There was an immense crowd upon on the grounds. Fully five thousand people witnessed the game. Missouri was backed by a delegation from Columbia four hundred strong.
SOME OF THE FACES
AFTER THE BATTLE.
Both Columbia and Kansas put up an extraordinary game. Kansas excelled however in everything with one exception,—end runs. In this one respect Missouri was especially strong, having some feet
footed half backs.
Here are their weights after the game: Champlain, 157; Williamson, 133; Shepard, 147; Hammil, 191; Matteson, 175; Springer, 158; Coleman, 155; Huddleson, 149; Mendell, 159; Piatt, 166; Kinzie, 153.
The University team did splendid tackling and all around team work. Piatt as a blocker, Shepard as a tackler, Mendell and Matteson as runners, Champlain and Kinzie as line heavens, can not be excelled west of the Mississippi; then Coleman, Hammil, Huddleson and Williamson, put up a magnificent game. The Kansas City Times says that Springer is the best all around player on the team. He is good, no doubt, and showed his metal.
Cornell of Kansas City, acted as referee; Holden, of the same place, was umpire.
The men lined up as follows:

Goslin    Left end'    Springer
Thompson    Left tackie'    Mateeson

the ball, and playing a confident game gains eight yards on the wedge, and twenty-five yards in seven downs.
Then Shepard tackles Shawhan five yards back of the line. Eight more yards are gained when Lee Shawhan fumbles to Kinzie. Kinzie is sent around right end, but likewise, fumbles to Missouri. The enemy does not keep the ball longer than to make six yards.
- Champian starts it rolling for seven yards. Matteson makes a run of thirty-two yards. A loud yell of Rock

From this play on Missouri gains continually until fifty yards are to their credit, then Kansas takes the ball on downs but loses ground.
Missouri gets hold of the ball and keeps it until a touch down is made.

The cheering of the Missourisimply deafening. But a damper is poured upon their arder when the full back fails to kick goal. The score stands 6 to 4.

But the star play of the game is yet to be made by Kinzio.
Kansas forms a gridiron and gains fifteen yards. The ball is carried within ten yards of Missouri's goal line, then our opponents gain possession and by inferior playing on the part of Kansas and good end runs on the part of Missouri the ball is brought back within thirty yards of the Kansas line. Here the latter get possession and advance ten yards by means of the rolling wedge. Then the wedge is formed again. But it is not the intention of the Kansans to shove the ball through the center. The wedge

AWFUL!!
from amidst the living mass of humanity Kinzie bounds with Piatt by his side to guard him. The Missouri full back sees them, leaps like a deer, in pursuit, but Piatt successfully guards him off and Kinzie gains sixty yards and a touch down. Piatt kicks a goal and the game stands 12 to 4 in favor of Kansas.
Thus did the Kansas regular team finish its glorious season with a clear and undefined record
and remains so till the close.

and again the regular eleven see written upon its silk banner, "Nev-

NOTES.
Kinzie has made himself famous by his great run and the startling likeness which appear in the Times.
The Kansas City Times gave the game a fine write up. We are indebted to them for our illustrations.
Several tally-hos were out to the game. One of them was filled with Kappa Kappa Gammas,
The M. U. mascotte was very conspicuous during the game, but seemed to bring bad luck upon the team.
The Kansas City people are strong supporters of the yellow and black. But when we win we find them proud of the crimson.
The beautiful yellow and black silk banner which the M. U. boys carried so confidently, mysteriously found its way to Lawrence. After gracing our triumph it was returned.

The Kansas delegation in Chicago extend congratulations to K. S. U, and her foot ball club upon their victories; and assure them that Northwestern, Chicago, Wisconsin, Minnesota or Michigan University foot ball clubs would be "easy marks." H.F. Roberts.
Mr. Otis Potter dropped dead while in the University museum, about ten o'clock last Wednesday morning. The cause was evidently heart failure. Mr. Potter was in his 86tn year and had enjoyed excellent health, being a man of very temperate and correct habits. In company with his wife and some friends he was visiting the University museum, and had climbed Mount Oread and several flights of stairs, the exertion of which was probably too much for a man of his age.
Sudden Death of Mr. Potter.

This is the foot ball number of the Courier.
We ate turkey Thanksgiving day. Missouri ate crow.
BAKER struts around as proudly after their victory over the second eleven as a small boy does when he puts on long pants.
KANSAS UNIVERSITY is the champion of the southwest. Minnesota of the northwest. The next game will be a battle of the giants.
BAKER won the triangular pennant and now claims the championship of the west. Probably in their estimation the west extends around the world.
THE League base ball season is ended, and admirers of the game note a decadence of the popularity so long enjoyed by professional teams. Munificent salaries are a thing of the past, and amateur organizations are forging to the front. The craze that netted big profits and pervaded every class has gone out. May foot ball never become a professional game.
D. W. Eastman, the Representative elect from the Emporia district, in Lyon county, will push a bill making an appropriation for enlarging the State Normal school. He says that the school has outgrown its present quarters and cannot possibly get along without a new wing. The school now has a larger attendance than any normal in the United States, and ranks as the foremost of American normal schools.
In the North Western College league Minnesota has played three games and won each of them, Michigan, Wisconsin and Northwestern have each won one game and lost two.
In the South Western league Kansas University has won every game with the following scores:
K. U. - - 20. Denver - - 6.
K. U. - - 26. Illinois - - 4.
K. U. - - 24. Iowa - - 4.
K. U. - - 12. Nebraska - 0.
K. U. - - 12. Missouri - 4.
Total 92. 8,1
In spite of the twelve foot tin horns which the Missouri boys used "Rock Chalk" was heard above all the din. We have a good yell and know its potentialities. At the beginning of the game with a measured and irresistable power, "The universal host absent A shout that tore Hell's concave, and beyond Frightened the reign of Chaos and old Night." When the team was in the midst of action, just as a powerful rush was going to be made it was given in a quick and energetic manner that inspired the players. When victory crowned our heroes it poured forth in one long continued flow of soul.

Foot Ball—A Game of Brains.
Foot ball has its bad side. It breaks collar bones, gouges out eyes, sprains ankles. It absorbs too much the attention of certain students. But foot ball has its good side. It has intellectual and moral relations. Its playing demands a mind as well as muscle, white tissue of the brain as well as red tissue of the chest. Foot ball trains in a conspicuous way elements of character.
Foot ball trains the supreme quality of judgment. The game is one of inferences. It teaches the art of weighing evidence. It is a constant and swift grasping together of many and diverse parts, and from this one thought drawing a certain duty to be swiftly done. It is a comparison—comparing with opposing strength. It is a ceaseless interrogation—what will the opponent do, how can he be beaten, where is his weakest point, where his strongest. Judgements made in foot ball are made under the necessity of swiftness like the lightning's. The mind is alert to see, to infer. A second determines priority. No tiger ever springs more quickly than a foot ball man. Fumbling is death. "If 'twered well it were done quickly.' If it is not done quickly by one side it is done quickly by the other. The quicker quickness wins.
Foot ball is a discipline of the quality of attention. Attention to duty is at the burning point. The absorption is complete. Playing foot ball must be genuine objectivity, the alter Ego. I quite envy lusty fellows their flinging themselves, of themselves. What a joy it is to forget oneself! I lately witnessed a game—the first first rate game I ever saw. I was interested in the effect of the game on myself. I made a diagnosis of my condition. I—staid old gentleman—wildly flinging my umbrella in the air and hollowing like a loon. My pulse, as near as my excited condition would permit my counting, was 144! But what of those eleven, twenty.two men bending over that leather covered ball? The excitement of Gettysburg, even Pickett's charge, could have hardly been greater.
Foot ball is a training in co-operative endeavor. Each player works with every other, knee to knee, shoulder to shoulder. One man runs, three men protect him from the tackling assaults of his antagonists. One man gets the ball by a trick, four men have aided him. Nine men are pushing the nine other men toward the goal, bowed and buckled together into one manhood—two men stand without ready for a swiftly-made emergency. Each man is strong in himself, each man is strong for himself and for each other. Let our friends who are talking about a co-operative basis of society see a foot ball game if they wish to see what real co-operation is. Eleven minds that think as one, eleven necks that bend as one, twenty-two shoulders that push as one, twenty-two hands,
twenty-two knees, every man, every faculty of every man, all working with each other and toward one aim, that's foot ball.
Foot ball is a discipline in the quality of judgment, attention and co-operation. It is a discipline in many other and excellent qualities. But in this part of this article let it suffice to say that foot ball is a discipline, it is a training. It is a conversion of adipose matter, material, mental, into art cultured forces. It promotes development. It promotes self-control, self restraint. It promotes endurance. It promotes proper obedience. The discipline of the regular United States army is an education which, if not liberal, is rather liberating. Four years ago West Point, even if one shirked his books, would be a training from boyhood to manhood. The rigor and vigor of foot ball has a similar effect.
But I do not intend to eulogize foot ball. I only want to point out certain mental qualities which it fosters. It is well to see, better to make conspicuous these qualities. Athletics occupy an important place in college life. We can "down" them on neither the popular nor the academic field. Their evil features, and evil features they have, are to be eliminated. They are to exist, to exist in larger ways, as the people become wealthier, and work more exhausting and life more complex. To abolish them is impossible. To guide them is the duty of those who control things. To get the most out of them, to get the highest work from them, to cause them to minister to the mind, to minister to the soul, in nobler advantages as faculties become nobler, is to be made the great endeavor.—President Thwing, Western Reserve University Adelbert College.
Prof. Dyche.
The Kansas City Journal pays Prof. Dyche the following tribute: "For fourteen months he has been working almost night and day to make an exhibit of the mammals of North America at the World's Fair that will be an honor to the University and a credit to himself. To those who know Dyche and his methods it is unnecessary to say that he has succeeded in his undertaking. To those who do not know him the facts may come somewhat as a surprise. From boyhood his life has been devoted to the study of animated nature, and as he grew in years so did his ambition grow until his whole being is engrossed in the great work to which he has set his life. Not content with taking what was to be found in books, and not trusting the judgment of others, he has gone into the deepest wilds of the mountains from New Mexico to the far Northern British Columbia, and in their homes has found the animals which he wished to study. Seeking them out day after day and month after month, he has amassed a fund of knowledge possessed but by few men, and
sessed but by few men, and to day
probaby knows more about the home life of the larger mammals of the continent than any other living man."
MUSIC NOTES.
The Christmas concert will be given in the University chapel on Dec. 12th.
The State Music Teachers association will meet in Lawrence during the holiday vacation.
The Music School will publish a monthly magazine. The first number will appear next month and will contain about sixty pages and a Christmas supplement. After the first number it will be entirely a Kansas publication.
The annual rendering of the Messiah will occur on the evening of Dec. 14. The chorus will consist of seventy five voices and soloists from the school. The accompaniment will be performed upon two pianos and two organs.
The contrast between Leschetizky's two pieces "Consolation" and "Mazurka," which followed Prof. Preyer's own work was clearly brought out. His phrasing was especially to be admired in the former composition. In response to a furious recall he gave a gay waltz by Gillet. Prof. Preyer has none of the tricks and eccentricities of some pianists and his execution is remarkable.
Prof. Carl Preyer, the new professor of piano music, made his first public appearance before a Lawrence audience at the faculty concert and the generous applause which followed every performance gave evidence that he was received with due honor to his remarkable musical talent. He was a pupil of the famous teacher and composer Leschetizky, and he betrays a skillful touch such as can be obtained only by study under the great masters. Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsodie No. 12 was brilliantly executed and for an encore he responded with "The Book" by Heller. The "Danse Fantastique," a bright piece with a beautiful theme for the left hand and variations, showed Mr. Preyer's ability as a composer of considerable merit.

At the game played last Saturday between the Kansas State University and Baker University foot ball teams, the Baker boys for the first time used the Baker yell which is as follows: "B. U. Rah,

A few days ago, misled by an item floating about in the news of the state, we innocently made the statement that the boys of Haskell Institute at Lawrence had defeated the State University foot ball team. It was an unlucky star that guided us on that day, for letters, newspaper clippings, insinuations, and personal interviews have made our life miserable ever since, and we are glad to give in, now, that the item was a slander on the University, the beloved Alma Mater, the noble Athens of Kansas, and the whole state. We are ready to take it all back, to assert that the Kansas University foot ball team has been victorious thus far on every foot ball field from Pike's Peak to the Wabash River, and to promise that we will never fool with a hornet's nest again.

The foot ball men now have the pleasure of eating pie and cake.
Now that the foot ball season is past let us transfer at least part of our enthusiasm to the oratorical field.
WHAT has become of the gymnasium? Why is there not some provision made for the use of the apparatus we have? This is the time of year when the student begins to loose his hold upon vitality if he does not exercise.
From the number of bruises and sprains which the season has furnished, foot ball has come to be regarded as a "fall" game in more senses than one and one might infer that the "down" so often heard does not refer to the material upon which a player falls.
UNIVERSITY EXTENSION has be come quite an important feature of modern university work. It has for its object the spreading of the knowledge of the schools and colleges among a class of people who have not had an opportunity to obtain a college education and among those who wish to keep in touch with the most modern thought. Large numbers of people take this work and receive good results. If one of the chief features of this work is to keep universities in touch with the world, why can not university extension be made to work both ways? A scheme which might be termed university expansion could be instituted by which business and professional men could lecture before the students. This is done to some extent in the Historical Seminary but might be made much broader.
DOUTLESS every student has had some experience with that not inconsiderable class of humanity which demands that the college man be a living, moving library of universal knowledge. To such the fact that a young man goes to college is quite reason enough why he should know everything. Any failure on his part to give a full, prompt and sufficient answers to questions which would daze the very elect themselves is swiftly called to his attention as a glaring defect in his course of education. He must be perfectly familiar with the most abstract objects and intricate theories by broaching which they, as it were, press the button and expect the student to do the rest. If he hesitates he is lost and explanation or reason for a lack of information on the subject is scoffed at as an attempt to justify willful negligence. A frank confession of ignorance is in their eyes as much as the reputation of a college is worth By his own admission he disproves the accepted idea of a college education or admits himself to be unworthy of his privileges.
Such an idea is of course rediculous in the extreme. Education, however far advanced does not clothe college man with infallibility, although it may be said that his
actions and general air do belie the assertion. In fact it is only as his course advances that he begins to comprehend more and more fully how very little he knows as compared with what he has to learn. Hence it is that the Freshman in his mind's eye knows vastly more than the Senior, is ever ready for a bout in argument with the professor and is nothing loth to call in question the confident opinions of the authors whom he studies.
The best results in university work come when there is a strong bond of sympathy between student and professor. An encouraging word from a professor makes the sensitive heart and mind glow with aspiration. On the other hand blue, dyspeptic words soon drown out enthusiasm and produce in young minds a decidedly mulish attitude. Every man has his moods and in the drearier moods of life it takes but little to blast hopes and dampen enthusiasm. We can not deprive a professor of his right to have sour moods as well as other people, but professors, and students also, should try to keep their pessimism to themselves, for pessimism is dangerously contagious.
It seems entirely unnecessary to call the attention of athletes to the value of cross-country runs. Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Brown, and all the institutions of importance where athletics are encouraged, have regularly organized runs. Nothing will harden the muscle and increase the powers of endurance of foot ball men so much as two or three runs per week across the country. The older schools cannot get along without this kind of training to bring out material and to train teams of all kinds. We certainly need more material, especially in the long runs, and what we already have, needs training from now till the field meet in the spring.
Long distance men will find no other method that will give them wind, strength of limb, or endurance in so short a time as the long cross-country runs. To men who do not care or intend to enter for any event, these runs can be made fascinating in the form of Hare-and-Hounds. By all means let a start be made in this direction.
The foot ball season of '92 has closed with a record to the credit of the eleven which fairly eclipses the most sanguine expectations of those who anticipated a brilliant campaign for the plucky team which has this fall represented us between the goal lines. It has not been a season of startling surprises. The element of luck has not been conspicuous in the success of the team; the influence of the mascot has not been relied upon. The team has won its victories and the admiration of every patron of the game purely on its merits. To the nature of these merits is to be attributed the gratifying record of the team and the consequent impetus which the game has received in our midst. Hard,
persistent and conscientious work on the part of all, together with the spirit and dash with which individuals played for the success and the reputation of the college; the entire harmony which has at all times existed among the members of the team; regular and faithful practice, with a strict observance of the rules of diet, etc., without which no team can hope to be successful; and, not the least, the absence of the I-know-it-all disposition among the players—to these is to be ascribed the enviable reputation of the team in an incomparably greater degree than to any large range from which to select players or to exceptional advantages of training.
But while the work of the individual members of the club is deserving of the praise which it has frequently received, too much cannot be said in commendation of the manner in which the players have been handled by their efficient and energetic manager, Prof. Shepard. To this officer congratulations are due, not only on his ability as a player, but on the condition of his team and the style in which he has directed it. A large measure of the success or failure of any team is justly placed to the credit of its captain; but the result of the season has been demonstrated that no mistake was made in the selection of Captain Kinzie.
Exhibit of Building Stones
The department of geology and mineralogy has been busy for some time preparing an exhibit of the building stones of the state. Last summer Prof. Williston visited the noted quarries of the state and secured specimens for the exhibit. Since then boxes of stone have been constantly arriving until at present the collection is a comprehensive one representing the quarries of nearly every county in the state.
The building which was fitted up for the new testing machine also contains machinery for cutting and polishing stone and work has been carried on here since the opening of the term in preparing the exhibit. The stones are cut to as near a uniform size as possible except in cases where it is desirable to show the thickness They are then polished on one side to as high a degree as their structure will admit.
Experiments have also been conducted in determining the strength and value of the stones for building purposes. For this purpose the new testing machine has been employed.
Perhaps the most interesting part of the exhibit will be that relating to the structure of the stone. Specimens are carefully ground down to a very thin section and mounted on glass slides. They are then studied microscopically. The specimens being very thin are capable of being micro-photographed and studied from the photograph. A collection of photographs is being made to accompany the exhibit.
Kansas possesses some of the finest limestone quarries in the west and the exhibit will be a creditable display of one of great natural resources.

Seminary Meeting.
When it was posted that such a man as Rev. Charles M. Sheldon, of Topeka, was to address the Seminary a large attendance was assured. On account of the change in the time of the Santa Fe plug Mr. Sheldon was compelled to read his paper quite rapidly and to leave before the discussion which always follows the reading of papers.
The subject of "Is Our Civiliza- tion Christian?" was discussed by Mr. Sheldon in a most instructive and interesting manner.
In the course of his remarks he said: It is with a truly sincere and almost anxious attempt to place some needs of our civilization in a clear and simple light that this paper has been prepared. To the question, "Is our Civilization Christian" three tests will be applied. The social, the political and the religious. Take the first test. Every Sunday paper all through the year contains in its society columns account after account of the entertainments among the rich, but if one of the same society ladies should give a supper to the children of an orphan asylum it would create a society sensation. Look into the host of most any church member in America. There are pleasant social gatherings between relatives and friends. Members of the same church are invited to dine and the compliment returned and, over the coffee, church work has been discussed and nobody harmed by wine drinking or gambling. Yet if you were to try to find a christian home where the poor neighbor, or the unfortunate, or the one who could not make a feast was invited into that home you would have to search a long time before you would find such a one. The fact is, society almost universally, and the christian home with a few exceptions, closes it doors pretty carefully to all but its own kind of people. The unfortunate are not made welcome. It is not enough that we establish refuges and homes, and asylums, and retreats. It may be civilization, but it is not Christianity Civilized society as it is commonly understood, has found its greatest energies spent in four directions;
entertaining those who will give again, playing cards, dancing, and attending the play. Much might be said concerning the aspect of the home life in civilization. There is scarcely a civilized home in a city consisting of father, mother and grown up boys and girls where you can find the family all together one night in a week. Society has absorbed the home and this is not Christian.
As to the political test. The one great aim of human government is the righteousness, prosperity and happiness of all the people. In great political campaigns mens'votes are sought and their passions or prejudices aroused by arguments directed to the pocket book. Nothing is said about right. Plenty of good men who are church members believe there is no such thing as mixing politics and religion. And our government cannot be claimed to be truly Christian in its purposes and the machinery of administration.
It was the plain law of Christ that, religiously, all his disciples should be united in the common work of redeeming mankind. Yet at no time were there ever as many sects as now. Today the churches compete with one another for patronage. In every town there are always many more than can be supported and I believe Christ would denounce the sectarianism and denominationalism of our generation as non Christian and unchristian in spirit and in practice.
In spite of optimism and the longing, conviction will not down at empty bidding of it, and looking gravely though hopefully out we are compelled to say with reluctant sadness. 'No, our civilization' is not christian—no—not yet.
Glee and Banjo Club...Second Annual Tour.
The Glee and Banjo club will start on its second annual tour next Tuesday, making Emporia the first date. The program is a great improvement over that of last year. Prof. Dome will render two numbers on his Guarneius. Mr. Young of Kansas City, will assist Prof. Saunders on the banjo, and the quartette will render some highly creditable selections, besides the regular glee and banjo music. A special program is in preparation for a sacred concert to be given in Denver on Christmas. The same concert will probably be repeated at Fort Riley on New Year's day for the benefit of the nation's defenders. In Topeka a crowded house is assured as the club plays in the Grand opera house under the auspices of the State Teachers Association. The tour will be of great good in advertising the University.

The Bassett Trial
The Courier having been asked to comment upon the recent trial of Fred Bassett for shooting William Higgins gives its readers the main facts in the matter.
On the evening of October 10th a number of students returning from the athletic field crossed a corner of Judge Bassett's property by a clear path. When near the sides walk they were called upon by Fred Bassett who was seated in a phaeton to get off the lot. He was unheard by most of the party. The boys soon reached the sidewalk and were unaware that young Bassett had gone for his gun when he suddenly shot at Higgins and Cracraft who were in advance of the party and had not heard his warning. After the firing Bassett threw the brake of the gun apparently making ready to shoot again.
Higgins was seriously wounded, Cracraft escaped with slight wounds. In the trial it was clearly proven that he had before announced his intention to shoot if the students came upon his father's premises. The defense consisted in a flimsy didn't know it was loaded story which few believed.
One of the counsel for the defense made desperate apparently by the weakness of his case, endeavored to save his client by a harrangue after the bombastic manner of a stump speaker in which the students who testified for the prosecution were characterized as liars and perjurers who had gotten together and concocted a series of falsehoods to send an innocent boy to prison. Such an accusation is utterly absurd and could have been employed only by a beaten attorney. The students who were present in the court room were severely sentenced for being present and taking too much interest in the case when in fact they were witnesses, or law students who attended the trial as they attend any trial for the profit they may derive from the proceedings.
It is the opinion of all familiar with the case that the sentence, which is six months in the county jail, is lighter than could reasons ably have been expected.

Two Ways of Taming Horses.
Two VIEWS of Taming Horses.
What is announced as being a trial of the relative merits as horse tamers of Leon, of Australia, and Sample, of America, was commenced in the theater adjoining the Westminster aquarium the other evening. A committee of between forty and fifty gentlemen, including military men, veterinary surgeons and others has been formed to supervise the affair and it is intended to award the winner a prize of £100. A number of intractable and vicious horses, or horses suffering from other defects of temper, will be submitted to the rival tamers, and the committee will decide as to which, in the words of Professor Atkinson, most nearly conforms to the requirements of simplicity, humanity and practicability. Owing to various causes last night's demonstration was of a rather restricted character.
Each man "handled," as the term is, two horses, and with, from his own point of view, success. Leon's system of "faming," as is perhaps generally known, consists in the subjection of the animal to be operated on by an ingenious and most effective arrangement of bits, gags and cords, while Sample, after securely boxing up his patient, brings him into close proximity with a steam engine, and having familiarized him with its noises while under rastraint, afterward drives him right up to it. Both men gave demonstrations of their respective methods with a fair amount of success, and it is understood the committee will award points nightly and give their decision at the end of the fortnight—London Telegraph.
Slavery Still Exists.
A slave dhow, captured recently by H. M. S. Blanche, has just been condemned. She was on her way to Pemba when the attention of the officer of the watch was attracted by the unusual number of Arabs in a show standing in toward the land. On boarding her the dhow was found to contain thirty-three slaves and to have come from Pangani. Three of the slaves were selected by chance to be examined in the prize court.
Of these two came from the neighborhood of Mombasa. One, a male, said that he had been sold by his brother on account of famine prevailing in the district; the other, a young woman, said that a year ago she had been sold by an Arab of Mombasa, and had eventually been sold to the captain of the dhow; the third slave was a little boy, and when examined he said he came from Unyamwezi with a caravan. The captain of the dhow said it was the business of the people on the coast to sell slaves, and that he had paid for every one of the thirty-three slaves and had not stolen or kidnapped any. The slaves were turned over to the missionaries, and the captain and Arab crew have been dealt with by the sultan of Zanzibar.—London Army and Navy Gazette.
Good Moese Hunting in the North.
Mr. Colin Rankin, Hudson Bay factor at Mattawa, a in town. In conversation he stated that considerable moose hunting is taking place near Mattawa, on the Quebec side of the river. Hunters from the United States and England visit the locality where the moose are very plentiful, and kill the animals for their heads, the Indian guides getting the meat and hide, besides $2.20 per day as their recompense. No cows or young animals are killed, only the old bulls with the big horns.
The Indians can so closely imitate the moose call that there is no difficulty whatever in getting a shot, as the moose bull when he hears this peculiar call at once goes to see what it means, when the hunter, if he is an accurate shot, kills the noble beast. —Toronto Empire.
A mustache is not regarded as a marketable commodity, but a man disposed of his upper lip ornament the other day to a beardless youth who envied him its possession. The two men were sitting in a cafe, when the youth, in a moment of guileless desire, said, "I will give you fifty shillings for your mustache." "Done," replied the other with dramatic promptitude, and calling for a pair of scissors he laid the mustache on the table. The young fellow protested that he was only joking, but his companion issued a county court summons for the amount agreed upon and received it without much trouble.—London Million.
Fifty Shillings for a Mustache.

A HAPPY CHRISTMAS.
Now for the January contest.
THE COURIER wishes the students and professors a pleasant vacation.
We anxiously anticipate the pleasures of the holiday vacation. Some of the Freshmen have been counting the days and are now counting the hours until they shall arrive at home.
The article in last week's Student's Journal, which endeavors to place Mr. Cook's, of the Review in an artificial and questionable light, savors of doubt and falls far short of being convincing.
WITH this issue the Courier again changes editor-in-chief. It is the third change made within the last two months and it is hoped the last one, while the present management has control.
The classic commencement is coming into disfavor. At Harvard it is growing more difficult each year to get speakers from the graduating class. John Hopkins, Columbia, and the University of Michigan, have abolished the custom of having the seniors pronounce orations.
PRESUMABLY the next two weeks will be employed by our orators in making Rome howl with their vain endeavors to perfect themselves and prepare for the contest the last of January. That's right. Practice, practice and when you think you are perfection, practice some more.
IN consideration of the fact that the senior class will publish an Annual which will represent all the interests of the University in an interesting and creditable manner, the Courier will not get out a special holiday number. Anything which we would care to publish and illustrate will be an essential feature of the Annual and we do not wish to detract any interest from that publication.
THE large number of sleds on the University hill during the coasting season furnishes entertainment for the students who feel themselves to have outgrown the sport, but at the same time interferes seriously with foot passengers. The sidewalk is made very slippery and the constant passing of the sleds endangers not only the student but the coasters. The small boy should find some other place to coast.
WINTER is again approaching and with it the enjoyments and dangers of climbing a slippery hill, made so by an innocent snow storm and more especially the little boy and his sled.
It is hoped the time is not far off when the proper authorities will take matters in hand and stop this coasting, indulged in by an impudent lot of "kids." The sidewalk is slippery enough without their doubling it a hundred fold by coasting. It should be stopped, before an accident occurs.
Our's is not a feeling of sorrow, but rather a commingling of com miseration and pity. The same feeling that a mustift must experience when he looks down on a poodle.—Review, October '92.
A Falschood Nalled.
The above article is copied by the Baker Beacon, ascribed to the COURIER and made the text of a column article of bosh, the intention of the discourse being to everlastingly and forever salivate the editor of the COURIER. It goes without saying Mr. Beacon that the COURIER would pass it by, but your malicious attack is too apparent and unfounded.
You know very well that the Review was father to that article, yet did not hesitate to falsify in order to give vent to your uncalled for spleen.
Better look at home, sir; take the beam out of your own eye before criticising others.
If we were prone to be critical we might tell you a few faults of yours; we might suggest that it is not the proper idea for any college paper to make a "Police Gazette" issue out of any one of its numbers, whether it be the color of the paper or material; yes, we might also suggest that it is neither a proper idea for a religious (?) institution to allow its weekly paper to devote itself partly to the defamation of its superiors and the balance of its sheet to general sporting news. But we we will refrain from criticizing, and when we do, certainly no article not written by you will be copied to further our project and the Beacon's name placed after, as you have done.
Be honorable sir, be honorable: acknowledge that you—well didn't tell the truth.
The Courier acknowledges that it is not the ideal paper in thought, style and language as the Beacon(?) and certainly it would be presumptious on our part to ever expect to reach those ethereal heights in which you revel. Yet, we do not and will not maliciously and intentionally stoop to even up with our friend the enemy, by the route which you have taken—you know. If the Beacon's editor-in-chief is a gentleman, as he insists the Courier's is not, he will certainly apologize. That's all.
The curriculum of Freshman and Sophomore studies which appears in another column is an innovation that will be appreciated much by all future students who come to the University. It is a great improvement and symbolizes the advancement of our University. Such a change has long been needed.
An Innovation.
In the future any student who comes to the University prepared to take the Latin, Scientific or any other course, according to this new regime will not be compelled to take studies in that particular course, and often useless to him, but will be allowed to select his own. This is just. The faculty are to be congratulated on this wise movement. A careful comparison of the new and old Freshman and Sophomore curriculum will show the latter's superiority.
"Beaten by Baker. Baker wins but not against the regular team." This is the way the University Courier heads one of its foot ball articles. Same old excuse, Courier. For goodness sake, sometime when we play you, get your regular team on the neld. Some people would like to see how your never-appearing regular team looks.— Baker Index.
Some people! Well, well! Wake up Mr. Index. You are living in the past. Don't let the moss grow over you. Have you already forgotten or did you ever get so far behind the times as not to know that "our regular" team defeated the Denver Athletic in a score 20 to 6 and that you were defeated by the same university? Have you also forgotten that "our regular team" defeated that same team, Missouri, whichyou promised to play and then backed out? Have you forgotten that our regular team defeated Illinois and Illinois everlastingly wiped the earth with yours? Some people! For instance, Nebraska, Iowa, Washburn and yourself, last October, when you failed to score against "the regular team." It is well that you did not play a return game against the "regulars" or your artificial victory over the scrub eleven would soon have vanished skyward like a whiff of powder. It was a great joke on our team, indeed. Ha, ha.
THE COURIER dislikes very much to impose upon its readers by penning questionable language, but when any college paper presumes to salivate us by a direct falshood our weak nature fails to keep within bounds. We hope that the occasion will not again be given us.
COURIER: I wish to say that the Glee and Banjo Club are meeting with phenomenal success.

hone 14. es
At the regular meeting of the faculty Monday night it was decided to make a new arrangement of the work of the Freshman and Sophomore years in the School of Arts. The scheme has been under consideration for a long time and it is thought that its adoption will be of great benefit to both instructors and students.
The following is the proposed arrangement:
Required for admission, language: Either Latin three years, English one year, Greek, German or French two years; or,Latin three years,English three years.
The other requirements are as given in the catalogue for 1891 92. COURSE OF STUDY—FRESHMAN.
First term—Geometry one-nalf,
Algebra one-half, English, Hygiene (20 lectures), Language (foreign).
Second term- Togrinometry three fifths; English composition two-fifths; Chemistry one half, Botany one half; Language (foreign), three themes.
SOPHOMORE.
First term, group I—Greek Latin, German, French.
Group II—History, Botany onehalf, Chemistry one-half, Analytics Second term, group I—Greek Latin, German, French, English.
Group II—Elementary Psychology and Logic, Zoology, Calculus Surveying.
During the Freshman and Sophomore years a student is required to study two foreign languages. He may take any language for which he is prepared. This includes permission to begin any language except Latin. The work of the Sophomore year shall consist of six themes and six full terms work chosen from groups I and II, provided that not more than four terms work shall be chosen from either group.

Bill and Me.
Bill an' me wuz nardurers,
And we alep' together nights:
An' Bill he pulled the kivers,
'N', of course, that brought on fights.
Sich scrappin' as we used to hey,
I guess von've not hern tell.
We'd fight back!
We'd fight jes like the dickens— 'N sinner down a spell.
Fer Bill an' me wuz brothers Beneath one common roof:
An's we ust to kinder hate to hear
Our lovin' fathet's hoof,
Come creepin' up the stairway,
An' sneakin' towards our room,
A bringin' queer sensations
Of everlastin' doom.
But when we heared his footsteps
Right up agin the door.
We'd buckle down for all we's worth An' jes begin to snore.
By jings, you'd ought to heer'd us! We played a reg'lar tune;
An' Pap, he'd silly roun' the bed,
an' maybe perty soon
He'd grab hold the kivers An' give a sudden jerk—
But, lordy, we held on so tight He couldn't make it work.
An' then he'd haul an' tug an' pull
While we held on an' snored —
I bet if youd't seen him onst
You'd jest a stood an' roared.
But fin'lly he'd git tired an' leave,
An' say benest his breath,
"Ef you blame fellars don't keep still
I'll beat you mos' to death."
An' when we knowd he'd gone away
We's brave ez a giraffe.
An' off would go the kivers then,
'N', lordy how we laff! H B
That Mouse Trap
It is said that one of the students had a very peculiar dream some nights ago. While the Gould biographies were current in every newspaper and the subject of a great deal of comment and interest, this aforesaid student became much interested in the mouse trap story, from which, so it is said, the great American financier got his start in life. So much did this ponderous story weigh upon that student's simple mind that he dreamed about it. Yes he dreamed about it, and a funny dream it was. Well, in the dead of night, when ghosts are supposed to be walking about, when the owl sings his doleful song to the tune of Old Black Joe, this toiler of Homer and Caesar became suddenly the inventor of a mouse trap—a real, genuine mouse trap, just like Gould's only different. He showed it to his friends, praised its good qualities, and—suddenly, while exhibiting it,the trap snapped and caught his, the student's finger. The pain was excruciating, and during its intensity the unfortunate inventor awoke only to find that he had his thumb in his mouth and pressing down upon it with a force that would sever a ten penny nail—this, so the gossipers say is a true story.

Dr. Marvin's Address.
Instead of the regular chapel exercises last Friday Dr. Marvin, by request, delivered a short address on "Minor Morals." Dr. Marvin is well known among the students as one who, during his connection with the University, devoted his whole energy to the building up of the school and since his resignation of the chancellorship, has always watched the growth and development of the institution with a more than friendly interest. The students venerate him and regard his words as wisdom. The announcement that he would speak brought nearly the entire student body to chapel. His address dealt with the amenities of life and he said in brief as follows:
Everyone here I take it desires to be successful in life. In order to to be successful each of us must have an objective point, an ideal in view. In order to be successful we must seek to secure the most friends possible; not political friends but true friends. In order to do this we need those elements of character which mark the true lady and gentleman. These characteristics can not be taken on and off as one may a garment. They must be a part of ourselves.
In striving for success we are apt to pay too much attention to the big things and omit the minor ones. Perhaps one of the finest of ideals to be mentioned is a proper regard and esteem for others which should find expression in our every day student life. In considering our department towards others we naturally think of the deportment of others towards us. We should learn to do unto others as we would have others do unto us.
We should avoid that good natured jolity and hilarity which sometimes find expression. It may pass at a ball game but should not find its way into our usual conduct. We should treat our professors and fellow students with due deference. If a stranger comes to the University to deliver a lecture or if a minister is invited to conduct chapel exercises we should not be lacking in showing proper interest.
But how, you ask, shall we acquire these traits of character? Put yourself in training. You are your own best trainer. Do not agree with your roommate to tell each other of your faults for a term and then leave him. Be your own master. As through constant practice the hand is trained to execute difficult music at the will of the performer so through continued effort you may form the habit of right conduct.
Do not be unmindful that in all things you have the honor of the institution in your hands.
Remember there are acquirements which can not be obtained from books. There should be a contact of mind with mind. The highest attainments are those which enable you to fill your place in life with proper relations toward your associates and to the pleasure of God.
