Dan Hammond left Lawrence for Wichita on Saturday morning, and the Sunday morning Eagle said that Mrs. D. L. Hammond, a student of the State University, arrived last evening. Dan will have to explain.
At the meeting of the American Dialect Society in Chicago next summer, Prof. Carruth will read papers on the language used to domestic animals, and the employment of school children in dialect study. The society was formed four years ago, at Harvard, for the investigation of the various English dialects of America. The dialects are studied with reference to pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, and geographical distribution.
Prof. Kellogg returned from California last Friday. He brought with him some valuable additions to the cabinets of entomology. Among them is a collection of scale insects.

The April number of the Agora will contain a reply to Col. Phillips' attack on the young crowd, written by an ex-student of the University, C.S. Finch.
A University picnic would be the next thing in order for the Independents to try their hands at. It would probably become a fixture and increase University spirit.
The Board of Regents meets today. The appropriations will be assigned to the various departments and the location of the new buildings will probably be determined.
Many people in the East think that the University is located in Topeka. A bill of lading recently received shows that a box intended for the University was sent to Topeka and laid there some time.
A number of students gathered at the home of Miss May Spencer Friday evening in honor of Miss Ensign of Topka A very pleasant evening was passed in games and conversation.

Prof. Dyche has written from Chicago asking for the photographs of Commanche, taken at different stages of mounting. These will be exhibited by the side of the horse.
Things are getting livier every day in University circles. The World's Fair craze is still on; dancing has assumed the form of a mania; base ball and tennis are raging; boating and picnics are on the tapis; field day sports and amateur theatricals absorb all conversation; until, in the *swirl* of society and athletics, the student must hunt for the nine hours to devote to studies.

There are two vacancies on the invitation committee of the Independent dancing association. Filling self-appointed offices causes considerable comment among the members and an interesting time is expected at the next meet-meeting.
A few more weeks will give to the trees their leafy dress. The green branches will shade the hot payment and, meeting overhead, will turn the long auctions into verdant bowers. As thou dusk of evening falls and the pretty town girls begin to promenade, the heart of the freshman will lead him to the chase, and when the soft moonlight and the twitter of the mandolin makes enchanting a thousand lovers' lanes, the student will take back all he said of Lawrence in the cold, dreary winter long before.

The vote of one law student was que- tioned Tuesday on the ground that he could not vote in Ohio and Kansas in the same year.
Prof. Williston lectured at music hall Tuesday evening on the Prehistoric Animals of Kansas. His lecture was illustrated by views from the magic lantern.
Boating was never so popular as it is this spring. This most fascinating of athletic sports has been gaining favor with the students for the past three years. There is no longer lack of enthusiasm and crews were early organized and practice begun. Our course on the Kaw river is acknowledged by experienced rowers to be exceptionally fine and insures a high position to K. U. crews in the future, when we may enter inter-collegiate boating contests. Thi year eighteen crews have been training for the spring races and from early dawn to dusk the clash of oars and muffled sound of various epithets, and the splash of waves coming over the end mingle and reverberate on the shores of the historic stream.
A Change.
An important change has been made in the method registering students at the beginning of each term. Instead of filling out cards for each study pursued, only one card will be used, which will be obtained at the registrar's office. The student will write on this card the subjects he wishes to pursue, and then take it to the instructors teaching them. Each instructor who admits the student to his class will sign his name to the card. When the student has secured the signatures of all the instructors under whom he desires to do work, he returns the card to the registrar for approval and registration. By this method each professor will know the number of studies pursued by each student, and, if the student desires to take too many studies, his application for entrance into some of the classes can be rejected. By the present method the student can enter as many classes as he chooses and thus cause much needless work for the guides and committee on number of studies.

TWELFTH Night.
The proceeds of Twelfth Night will go to the gymnasium fund.
If you are in favor of physical training for those who need it, attend Twelfth Night. ___
Now that the student has had a touch of spring weather he is becoming feverish for the next vacation.
LELAND STANFORD University will try to organize a ladies' boating club for this season. Why not organize one at K. U.?
SOMEONE has asked whether the recommendation of a "strongest cast" in Twelfth Night advertisements has any reference to the athletic ability of the actors.
The schools which expect to enter the inter-collegiate field day exercises on McCook Field are very enthusiastically preparing for the event and we may expect a very pleasant time.
The dignified Yale Seniors have come to a sensible conclusion in athletic matters. They are weary of the heavier sports and now indulge in the exquisite practice of sniping tops. ___
The time is almost here when the orations are to be handed in for the spring oratorical contest. Let enthusiasts hurry the orators up so that we may have a good contest. If we expect to get a chair of oratory we must pay more attention to these contests.
The patriots of Washburn who enlisted as assistant sergeants-at-arms in the Topeka legislature war, have decided to donate their salaries received from the state toward the fitting out of a gymnasium for the school. The old chapel is being prepared for the gymnasium, and, as a large number of students enlisted, a great part of the expenses can thus be defrayed.
THE plan adopted by Prof. Wilcox to give popular talks on the exhibits in the Classical Museum is meeting with much favor. Many students go through a course of years here and never know anything of these exhibits. All students should be given an opportunity to become acquainted with things in the University which they cannot study as their regular work.
THE Lecture Bureau is composed of three professors and nine students. The faculty chooses the three professors, who then choose one representative from each of the several schools of law, pharmacy, music, and engineering, and from each of the four collegiate classes of the school of arts. The oratorial association is allowed to elect one representative in return for giving its surplus to the Bureau. The three members, to the faculty, in order to give financial assurance to those engaged as entertainers, sign all contracts. They reserve, therefore, the veto power in all matters of finance.
THE History of Higher Education in Kansas, which has just been finished by Prof. F. W. Blackmar, is to be one of a series of monographs published by the United States and treating of the facilities for higher education in the several states. The book will contain about 200 pages and about fifty illustrations. In it the schools will be treated as state schools and as not state schools. A chapter will be deyoted, for the sake of completeness, to the excellent High school system of the state. This book will be a great benefit to the cause of education in the sunflower state, and especially will it be an aid to the University, which stands at the head of the state's educational system. Prof. Blackmar has made a very extensive study of the subject of education and is well prepared to write the state's educational system.
Why is it necessary to use star-chamber processes in selecting orators for the local contest? This anomalous condition in the affairs of the oratorical association is the cause of great dissatisfaction, and is keeping many worthy students from competing for the honors. Just why a few professors, who are above board in everything else, should be compelled in this particular to be so exceedingly wary about becoming known as the judges on selection, is not quite clear. In all other contests the judges are publicly announced and are agreeable to the contestants, but in this one the personnel of the committee is never known. Is this right? Is it just to the professors and to the contestants that this work should be done in secret, which holds out every inducement to irregularity and to the influence of personal favoritism? Those who have this in hand should at once see to it that this method is abolished, and that means be adopted which will give greater show of fairness.
--nappy as our school-days!" Then he persuades himself that these were the reflections that came upon him as he stood for the last time in the familiar building and received the precious parchment that rewarded him for his four years of labor. Doubttess he did have some regrets then, yet I will venture the statement that they are a good deal more definite and poignant now. The student who is finishing the last part of his last year in college does not feel that it is the last; but others have been through the same experience before him, and have given him their recollections, viewed through the magnifying glasses of time; so he knows how he ought to feel, and consciously lv tries to do his duty. It is no fault of his if he fails, and then strives to conceal his failure even from himself. Only give him time, and all the appropriate sentiments will be developed. M.
The standing of a university today is judged largely by the amount of original work done under its supervision. Much of the college work in the past has been a study of what others have said and done; but the progress of science will not allow a school to stop at this. It must do work for itself. Our instructors realize this and are ever willing to give students opportunities and encouragement to make original researches. The department of Geology has offered a course in field work in Geology, Minerology, and Petrography. The student will be given a few directions and placed in the field upon his own resources. He will be required to conduct a geological survey of a section never so surveyed; to note lines of strata, qualities of the geological formations; and to make accurate notes on the work. This work is intended to be done during the summer months, and when meritorious will be credited as one study pursued in the University for double the length of time actually spent in the field. At present the investigations will confined to Kansas, and it is possible that the student may secure a section of country near his home.
THE cry for student representation on the Lecture Bureau, which has lately been raised, is in the nature of a political bugaboo. Any fair minded student, who wishes to have good lecture courses given here, will readily see that the worst thing that could happen to the Bureau, would be to put the selection of the student members in the power of college politics. Each faction would think only of being represented, and of the honor it would receive thereby. It would be as much out of place to elect the student members as to elect the members of the United States president's cabinet. They must be students in sympathy with the work of the Bureau as well as representatives of their constituents. On account of the many changes in the student representation, (and there have been not less than a dozen this year) it would not be practicable to elect the members. Whenever a student resigned from the Bureau, the work would be greatly delayed, and his school would be without representation until a successor could be elected. Everyone knows what a difficult matter it is to get together a body of the students for such purposes.
OUR STUDY WINDOW.
They told me spring's first flowers were ablow I tossed aside the work I had to do,
And hastened where the tall, bare maples grow Upon a gentle slope from which the snow the ascii sheet would tend to grow The winter Easter bells, as pale of hue As babies temples with their veilage blue Their mode t bud 'mid dry leaves nestling low. The light was fading from the western sky.
As on I went with eager, searching eye, No fa' bud shone from out the gathering gloom. But when I turned, and took the homeward way—
The Easter bells and seemed to say.
There nodded Easter-bell and seemed to say,
"Tie on the path of duty that we bloom!"
--nappy as our school-days!" Then he persuades himself that these were the reflections that came upon him as he stood for the last time in the familiar building and received the precious parchment that rewarded him for his four years of labor.

If the editor of the Agora had happened to be walking along in the vicinity of the polls Tuesday afternoon, he might have received some evidence on the question, "Do Kansas Women Want to Vote?"
Mamma had just expressed her feeling in the matter by going and voting. Miss Ethel—who, by the way, has reached the mature age of five—had accompanied her, and fully determined to do her duty as an American citizen; but, strange to relate, her efforts were neither understood nor encouraged. When she found herself actually on the way home, with her crumpled ticket still in her chubby fist, her fortitude gave way. Mamma, bending to ask the reason for a half-mothered sob, was deluged by a flood tears.
There was no time to reason or explain. Mamma's quick eve caught sight of the letter box on the corner. Two minutes later Miss Ethel's tears were dry and a contented smile lit up her face. She had voted.
"I want to vote! O I want to vote!"
wailed Miss Ethel.
BE ON TIME.

The value of the above motto to a student (or anybody else) can hardly be over-estimated. It should be worked on card-board, and hung up in every school room, office, and family living-room in the land. Parents can hardly begin too early to impress its importance on the childish mind. The teaching should be at first by example; as soon as the child can talk, by precept. A little later, he should be introduced to that old school-reader (we all know it) whose pages contain such awful warnings against the theft of time. A delay of five minutes in the arrival of a reprieve has been known to cause the death of an innocent man; even a tardiness of only one minute, causing the loss of a train, may exercise a baleful of influence over the whole future career of the procrastinator. Let these considerations once be firmly impressed on the facile mind of youth, and exemplary promptness can not but result. Who would put off till tomorrow, who would put off today when
Let these considerations once be firmly impressed on the facile mind of youth, and exemplary promptness can not but result. Who would put off till tomorrow what ought to be done today, when he reflects that the intervening twenty-four hours is a period sufficient to make him miss fifteen hundred trans; to cause the sacrifice of three hundred innocent men? M.
SOME INAPPROPRIATE REFLECTIONS.
Have you no sentiment about leaving school? was the question recently put to me by a friend who evidently thought I did not have the feelings suitable to approaching graduation. I responded that sentiment was apt to be crowded out until after examinations, but that after that ordeal I should begin to cultivate the appropriate frame of mind.
In all seriousness, however, I believe the traditional emotions of the youth about to bid farewell to his alma mater are in a measure artificial. After he has been some time away from college he has very genuine fits of homesickness for the "classic halls" of the valedictorian's oration, which make him forget that he ever found Latin and Greek a "hore," and mathematics a "beastly grind!" He forgets that he and his schoolmates had occasional differences over, for instance, the Lecture Bureau, or the Oratorical Association, and he remembers he used to have so much fun with "the boys." Perhaps, too, if he went to a co-educational school, he has pleasant recollections of some of the girls. And he sighs, "Ehe fugaces! no period of our life is so
**
The strong support which Mr. Leland O Powers received from his hair in his impersonations the other evening calls to mind Dickens's "Ghost of Art" and the Model who expressed all the emotions a painter ever dreamed of representing, by means of his beard.
Probably the beard would have been in Mr. Powers' wav. At any rate he got on very well without it. The only objection to his presentation of the characters yet reported came from a very young person, who thought it would have been a great deal nicer if all the people had really been there, and even this objection may be groundless for most of us feel that "all the people" really were there. Dickey was—there's not the slightest doubt in regard to that. Miss Araminta? We could describe everything she had on from bonnet to sandals, and as for the old East India merchant, we could swear to his identity in court if necessary. Evidently the young person must withdraw the objection.
There seems to be another, though; but from the standpoint of the impersonator. How does he ever manage, to keep his own identity? One would think he would be so tangled up by the end of the evening that he wouldn't know whether he was the mother of seven children, or seventy.

ALONG THE GRAND TRUNK RAILWAY IN
CANADA
CANADA.
English flags and English faces in the towns; and in the country broad, shallow English brooks, idy winding through the meadows, lying in long calm stretches smooth as glass and reflecting the tall grass or the marges, and the lazy blue sky overhead. The air is as sweet and drowsy as the brows, and the autumn-tinted woods in the distance doze idly in the yellow sunshine. The grass is spring grass, though, as fresh and crisp and green as grass at home after a June rain and yet it is almost October now.
But in spite of the freshness of the grass, and in spite of an occasional map flaming up, there is still a sense of napping in the view. The cattle feef this where they stand, dreamingly forgetting the sweetness of the grass. The water-wheels feel it as well, for though they continue to turn, splashing the shallow silver water, yet it is plain to be seen that they are not conscious of what they do, and they really turn nothing but themselves.
If I were practical, I should ask what these rude wheels are for,—turning, turning in the brooks and yet attached to nothing, and often a mile from any house or shed; but practicality is not in the air here, and I fall to watching the crawling landscape again. The houses here are older looking and more picturesque than those of the states, and the pine stump fences everwhere flinging out their snaky prongs, make one think of some of Dore's pictures in the Inferno.
There was a fair at London as we passed through, but the square buildings were covered with English flags and the faces were someway a little different, or perhaps it was I that was different, since I could decide upon no line of distinction between them and home Yankee
faces, I did, however, see two regular beef faces, English cut of whiskers, English stiffness, and all.
But Paris, that is the village of my heart! All snuggled away on the sunny hillside below us, a deep ravine below that—a canyon it would be in the mountains—and the neat, white houses and church soires gleaming from the green along the sides of the gleaming, winding road. Then far down in the ravine below was a river dashing.
I shall come back some day and rest in that pretty village.  HERVEY WHITE.

A MEDICAL SCHOOL.
When the preparatory medical course was established in the University the intention was to make it the first step toward a medical school. This idea was kept in view for sometime, but now it seems to be wholly disregarded, and the question of discontinuing it is being discussed. The argument used in favor of its abandonment is that it has not kept pace with the first year of medical schools. Perhaps, and in all probability, this is true, yet it is not a sufficient reason for discontinuing a course which a true university should do its utmost to develop. If it is defective, its defects should be corrected and not disregarded or neglected.
The course as it now stands has some standing among medical schools. Mrs. L E Sayre was in Kansas City during vacation and visited the two medical schools there,—the University Medical School, [and the Kansas City Medical College,—and found that they were only too glad to give students taking our preparatory medical course, not only full credit for work done, but for the time spent in doing it. That is to say, the student who has taken our preparatory medical course can enter either medical school and complete the course in two years. A letter was received by Prof. Sayre from the St. Louis Medical School, through Dr. Whepley, secretary, which states, "We regard your preparatory medical course as one year. We have one or two of your students with us this year."
What more could be asked? With a very incomplete preparatory medical course we are already receiving recognition. We should not abandon a course which gives such brilliant promise, but improve it in every way. A medical school connected with the University is of as much importance as a school of engineering, a school of law, or a school of music.
If the University, by the continuance of her preparatory medical course and the improvement of it, shows the people of Kansas that a state medical school is needed, the state legislature will not be long in making an appropriation for one. According to a careful estimate, a $50,000 building and $10,000 a year for running expenses would give the University a well equipped medical school, which would compare favorably with the standard medical schools of the east. One half of the faculty necessary for a school of medicine is already in the University. We have instructors in chemistry, pharmacy, physiology and histiology. All we need would be about four instructors in the theory and practice of medicine and in surgery.
A medical school would bring many new students to K. S. U. According to an estimate based on other states, two hundred and fifty men leave Kansas annually for medical schools in other states. Perhaps this estimate is somewhat large, yet there is no doubt but that almost one hundred Kansas young men yearly go elsewhere for medical training.
At Topeka a small medical school was started two years ago and now it has between forty and fifty students. A state medical school would draw not only students who go there, but those who go to other states.
A medical school in the University would undoubtedly grow faster than any other department. The ablest and best physicians and surgeons in Kansas would be glad to lend it their support. At present Kansas is supplied with physicians educated in other states. Not one of them has received his medical training in Kansas. If K.S. U. wishes to approach the ideal University, the preparatory medical course should be encouraged and made the foundation of a future great medical school. W.W.R.
A great deal is said at this season of the year about the way in which women trim their bonnets. A great deal might be said about the way in which men trim trees.
Heretofore evergreens have been the
greatest sufferers at their hands; but fortunately we have few evergreens here to be tortured, and there really seems to be a tendency to let the few that are here grow as nature meant they should. The elms and soft maples, however, are grievously matted.
No doubt the soft maple is a difficult tree to keep in good shape. Its long, loose branches are very easily tangled and twisted by the wind, and it often presents a very dilapidated appearance after a Kansas zephyr has passed by, but there is surely no need of lopping the branches off so close to the trunk that there is nothing left but a notch for a crow's nest—and a notch which no self-respecting crow would ever choose, at that.
Perhaps the elm is the most beautiful of our trees. There is a wonderful grace in the upward and outward sweep of its branches. But the man with saw and shears cares nothing for that. He is like a boy with a new knife. The important thing is to cut. And so there is an elm in the row along the south side of Adams street of which there is absolutely nothing left but the trunk and a twig or two. It has neither beauty nor use, except as—like the broken marble shaft in a cemetery, which is the only thing it now resembles—it calls attention to what might have been.
It is all very well to talk about Arbor Day, but we need to understand the rights and beauties of the trees we have, before we get more of them. Probably if the trees knew how likely they were to be deformed by the man with the pruning hook and saw, they would prefer not to be planted. R. M.

An attempt was made Tuesday to keep populist and democratic students from voting on the grounds that they had registered at the University from other towns. One student stood at the polling place with a catalogue. The scheme was not very successful, as nothing could be proved from the catalogue as to the way the student's name was entered with the registar.
Some of the offices in the University, supposed to bestow the most honor on the holder, prove to be a means of sinking the successful aspirant out of sight. Many prominent students of two months ago are never heard of now.
Some students have studied so little this term they did not know the spring recess had come until it was over.
A compromise with winter has been made in some of the spring suits seen in the hallways.
KODAK SHOTS-
The best way to get a man to stop talking politics in the corridors five hours a day is to elect him to some minor office. The way to dispose of a man who denounces secret societies is to give him a chance to join the least prominent of the organizations he condemns.
Professor Templin has received some special apparatus for use in the advanced psychology class. Among them is a chronoscope, an instrument for measuring short periods of time. One tenthousandth of a second can be measured by it. It will be used for the determination of the reaction time, the association time, the length of time it takes a person to act or think, and for showing simultaneous and successive contrasts in color.

The faculty of Williams has been considering for a long time the advisability of granting a new degree from that college. The original idea was to give the degree of Bachelor of Letters to students substituting modern languages for Greek. This, however, was felt to be too narrow and insufficient. The faculty have, however, decided to recommend to the trustees a plan to grant the degree of Bachelor of Philosophy, which represents the preparation requisite for any of the many courses which lead to the doctorate of philosophy.—The Ariel.
The college authorities of Washburn have offered to duplicate any sum the students might raise for the building of a gymnasium. The amount given by the assistant sergeants-at-arms, when duplicated, will go a good way towards building one.

Professor Robinson has just finished revising his Latin Grammar for pharmacy and medical students. The revised "copy" has been sent to the publisher and the revised edition will probably be out June 1. The vocabulary of the grammar has been enlarged and various additions and improvements made. This is the only book of its kind in existence. Three years ago Prof. Robinson made an experiment of publishing it and its success "has far exceeded his expectations. He very frequently receives letters from various pharmacy and medical schools which desire to adopt his book. Owing to its popularity, this book is being revised after its third edition, although books are not usually revised until four or five editions have been issued.
About one year ago Prof. Newson sent the following problem to the Annals of Mathematics for solution. Prove synthetically that the eccentricity of a comic section is equal to the sine of the angle which the cutting plane makes with the base of the cone, divided by the sine of the angle which an element of the cone makes with the base. Solutions were received from G. R. Dean, W. B. Richards and H. C. Riggs. The one sent in by H. C. Riggs was chosen for publication.
Heretofore the various departments of the University have issued bulletins to the high schools of the state showing the requirements of each department for admission to the University. Prof. Templin is now preparing a bulletin giving briefly all the requirements in languages for entrance into the freshman class. The bulletin is confined to the languages as the scientific work in high schools is usually sufficiently advanced to need no direction.
Glacial Markings.
Last year Chancellor Snow and Professor Williston went to Nemaha county to examine some glacial groovings which had been noticed there. Previous to that time it was believed that no glacial markings had been discovered in Kansas. An abundance of large rocks, pebbles and drift brought to Kansas puring the glacial period had been noticed, but no groovings had been seen. A short time ago, however, a slab of a Kansas rock, two feet square, was brought to light in the museum which shows glacial markings very plainly. This slab was collected by the late Judge West a short time before his death. He had discovered it, but owing perhaps to ill health, had failed to give it proper attention. The credit of first recognizing glacia groovings in Kansas, however, undoubtedly belongs to Judge West.
Kansas Salt.
In the eight biennial report of the State Board of Agriculture, soon to be published, Professor Bailey will have an article on Salt in Kansas. Kansas is especially fortunate in having an abundance of salt beneath the surface. There is a great deposit of salt in Ellsworth and Saline counties, extending southward to the southern limit of the state, and having a breadth of two or three counties. There are numerous salt wells and springs in various parts of the state. Whenever borings are made deep enough salt water is found; and as many prospect borings have been made, we have abundant evidence of the briny nature of the deep, subterranean waters.
Rock salt is found principally in three localities—Kingman, Lyons and Kanapoils. The salt is obtained at a depth of from 700 to 1,000 feet. The greater portion of the salt made in Kanapoils, however, is by the evaporation of brines. The common method employed to procure the brines is to bore a well, save five inches in diameter, then this is tubed, and inside this tube a smaller one, say three inches in diameter, is placed. It is only necessary to force water down one tube, when it becomes saturated with salt and is forced up in the other tube. This brine is then stored in wooden tanks until evaporated.
The salt packed in bags, is made from selected brines and pulverized.
In Prof. Bailey's article, analyses are made of the brunes obtained at the various wells and the methods of manufacturing the salt at several places are described.
Edith Grubb Dead.
A telegram was received in the city Wednesday announcing that Miss Edith Grubb had died at an early hour this morning of consumption. The telegram was from Tucson, Arizona, where she had gone from Colorado, with the hope of improving her health. The remains will probably be brought here for burial, but nothing is yet definitely known about this. The news will be received with sadness by the many friends of the deceased in Lawrence and is a very sudden blow to all.
Prof. Hopkins of the University art school, is organizing sketching classes this week for out of door sketching in pencil, pen and colors. The rates are very low. Enquire at music hall.

Next year every student in the University will be required to contribute five dollars to a fund for the purchase of books for the library. The Regenis thought this plan advisable, as the state legislature appropriated $1,000 less for books this year than either of the two preceding years.
Specimens of a grain weevil that is infesting the Colby mills, Colby, Kan., have been sent to Prof. Kellogg to describe and "give best method of extermination." These insects are so numerous and are destroying so much grain and bran stored there that the mills have been compelled to stop work.
Some time ago C. E. McClung read a paper before the Kansas Pharmaceutical association on Microscopy. The paper was published in the Microscope at Washington, D.

The following were the results of a few of Saturday's games: Philadelphia 8, University of Pennsylvania 0; Brooklyn 27, Columbia College 3; Harvard 1, University of Virginia 1.
Prof. Williston will ship the exhibit of Kansas building stones to Chicago this week. It contains 150 blocks, representing 100 different quarries in the state. Prof. Haworth will also ship two or three carloons of ores, salt, minerals etc. Both exhibits will be placed in the department of mines and mining. They will supply a space twenty feet square.
A valuable present of medicinal substances has just been received by the Department of Pharmacy from Parke, Davis & Co., of Detroit, Mich. The generosity of this firm toward the University since the Department of Pharmacy has been established has been something remarkable. Prof. Sayre has long been a friend of the house and it is on account of his position in the school that these presents have been received. Among the substances received are nux vomica beans, tamarinds, saffron (consisting of nothing but stamens of small flowers) and coca, from which the deadly cocaine is made.
The Regents, at their meeting last week, made Associate Professor Hopkins Professor of Rhetoric and English Literature, and Associate Professor Hodder Professor of American History and Constitutional Law. They also made Assistant Kellogg and Stevens associate professors, and raised the salaries of Profs. Haworth, Newson, Franklin, Jones, Galloo, Engel and Rice. Miss Sutliff's salary was also increased. An appropriation was made for the erection of a carpenter shop to hold the combustible materials now kept in the basement of the main building. One hundred dollars was appropriated for extra assistance in the library.
Dr. Williston is writing a book on the Diptera of the West Indies. The Dr. received some time ago a collection of flies from a West Indian entomologist to be classified. In this collection there are 500 species, 450 of which have never been described or named. Most of these undescribed ones are microscopic in size. The task of classifying them, therefore, is a difficult one. In insects of average size the greater part of the work of classification can be done with the insect as a whole, but in these micro-diptera every point has to be determined by dissection under a strong microscope. To find suitable names for these new species also requires much time and labor.

Petroleum in Kansas.
While boring for gas at Independence, Kansas, a short time ago, a vein of petroleum was encountered. The petroleum was under such pressure that it immediately began to shoot out of the well and at present is flowing at the rate of one hundred gallons per day. Previous to this discovery it was believed that no petroleum in any considerable quantity could be found in the state. This petroleum, however, can be used only as a lubricator, as it does not contain enough oil for illuminating purposes. Some of it was sent to the University for analysis and E. C. Case analyzed it with the following results:
Light oil, 10.1 per cent.
Burning oil, 18.3 per cent.
Heavy oil, 5.6 per cent.
Lubricating oil, 6.6 per cent.
Weath"r Predictions.
In our peregrinations about the University a prolixity in the shape of a weather prophet was discovered, who has been hiding his remarkable talents under a bushel for long, weary years. It appears that he has been accustomed to notice the various phases of the moon and can tell whether it is a wet or dry orb, and has also made numerous observations as to the juxtaposition of the planets to certain constellations. In short he is well versed in the ancient art of astrology.
Arrangements have been made with this person to predict the weather one week in advance, for the general welfare of society. As the news will be liable to reach the utmost limits of the state a short time after publication, it is thought that predictions for one week in advance will be sufficient for the needs of the student, the farmer and all whose success in life depends on the weather.
It may be well to state, however, that there are times when even the best signs fail. This will be no fault of our prophet, as his predictions are as reliable as those of the chemist who stands before his class, tries an experiment and fails. The chemist would say the theory is perfect, but the conditions were not as they should have been. It is well known that the great Mr. Hicks does not always predict accurately; yet there is no reason for doubting the remarkable prophetic powers of the man. Hicks has won his reputation as a weather prophet and our K.S. u.p. prophet in a quiet way: he has won his. Here are his predictions for April 14 to 21 inclusive: The first days of this period will be showery, the showers being of an April character. On Saturday the 15th, if there are picnics in contemplation, provision should be made for covered wagons and a large supply of umbrellas. On Sunday a rain storm may be looked for; the center of the storm will be between Manhattan and the mouth of the Kaw. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday will be clear and pleasant, but on Friday Lawrence is apt to receive the benefit of the outer edge of a rain storm. "Now," says the prophet, "if you notice at any time a wind cloud, especially coming from the southwest, look for rain only when the sun comes in line with it."
There is a senior in this year's class who has broken the record. For the past four years he has been much of a society young man. He has called upon many of the young ladies of his acquaintance in season and out of season, at high noon and at evening, on Sunday and during vacation, but in all this social whirl he has never been known to escort a young lady to a lecture, a concert, or in fact anywhere, when it cost him anything.
The Library Building.
The Board of Regents has decided to accept the plans presented by Messrs. Van Brunt and Howe of Kansas City for the chancellor's residence and library building. These gentlemen have erected many library buildings, among which are those of Harvard and Michigan University.
The committee on buildings was given authority to negotiate for the lots just north of B. W. Woodward's residence, between Orcad avenue and Louisiana street, upon which, if secured, the library and chancellor's residence will be placed. The library will be placed on the edge of the hill, and the chancellor's residence on Louisiana street opposite Prof. Carruth's.
The general shape of the library building be that of a widened B, with the middle bar broadened, and extended at both ends. The front of the building, corresponding to the upright bar of the B, will face towards the west. The B with the exception of the elongations, will have two stories and a basement. In the basement will be lavatories, rooms for receiving and unpacking books, etc., etc. The first floor will be occupied chiefly by the reading room. On the second floor will be a large room to be used for lectures, receptions and other University gatherings.
The entrance to the building will be a small one story structure, somewhat resembling the entrance to the main building, projecting from the centre of the west front. Directly opposite this, between the curves of the B and extending toward the east, will be the stack, of five stories, where the books will be kept. The position of the building on the hillside will greatly increase the convenience of the stack, as two stories of it will be above the reading room and two below. The stack will be the only fire-proof portion of the building. Its stories will be short, for convenience in taking books from the shelves. Taken all in all, the building will be the finest on the hill. It will be the best product of modern architectural skill, and when viewed from the city will present a very pleasing and attractive appearance.
An Experimental Station.
Prof. Blake is endeavoring to have an experimental station of the United States Signal Service established in the new physics building. He has received very encouraging letters from the Chief of the Weather Bureau. An experimental station is not merely for the observation of the weather, but for the observation of all meteorological phenomena of importance to the government. There are only about four stations of this kind in the United States—at Harvard, Washington, Cornell and the Rose Polytechnic Institute. Each station is in charge of an officer appointed by the government. If the station is located here, a room in the new physics building will be constructed especially for it.

EXAMPLE is a dangerous lure; where the gnat got through the wasp sticks fast.—La Fontaine.
FROM the appearance of the college exchanges, it seems that college enthusiasm is at present at a low ebb. Nearly every editor is urging his readers on to action.
THERE is but one week left before the contestants in spring oratory will be selected. Has the executive committee made any arrangements for open competition?
WILLIAMS college advanced a step in the eyes of the liberal minded when she decided to allow students to substitute an equal amount of modern languages for the required work in Greek.
More students should take advantage of Mr. Usher's generous offer of gymnasium privileges. An hour's drill each day with his apparatus will be the best spring medicine you can take.
Now that the time has come when the student carefully counts the remaining weeks of the college year, and loves to read estimates of college expenses, it is comforting to learn that a promising young English lord spent £70,000 a year while at Oxford.
The new University of Chicago has attempted many and daring reforms, and by its progressive spirit has greatly advanced the cause of higher education. The last thing to be tried is to abolish the practice of asking and granting excuses for absences from classes. At the end of the academic year, if the student has thirty absences charged against him, he will be required to take an extra minor to cover them. As a diploma of graduation is a certificate of the amount of work which the student has done, it is no more than right that the school require the work to be done, and not "allowed." In some departments of our Alma Mater the practice is to give a student full credit if he will bring an excuse for his absence. If classes are missed the work is certainly lost, and the professor should insist that it be made up. Giving a good excuse for the absence does not make the student eligible to a higher grade than he would have received had no excuse been given. The school should insist that the required work be done, thus helping the students to regular habits and at the same time building up a reputation for the school.
WHILE the average student is straining every faculty to complete his course and secure his diploma, he is too likely to think only of his books and immediate surroundings; and, when his four or five years at school are ended, he is suddenly thrust upon a world entirely strange to him. A small number try to keep in touch with the doing, of the outer world,
but in no regular, systematic way. As a person's usefulness is greatly enhanced by his knowledge of the world about him, it certainly is a large part of one's education to keep informed of important events. In order to keep the students interested and to do regular, systematic work, classes in 'current events' have been organized in several eastern schools and have proved very popular and successful. We should have such a class at the University. Let several of the professors get together and make arrangements to hold such informal talks, at least two or three times a week, as will keep students interested and informed concerning the world about them. By co-operation of students and professors, the work could be so distributed as to add but little extra labor to either. A class of this kind could easily be carried by all students, as the work might be made very light and still be instructive. For a beginning, such a feature might be introduced into the chapel exercises.
Twelfth Night.
Amateur theatricals are too often spoiled by the ill-judged dramatic attempts of those who have little or no ability 'as actors'. The performance of Dwelfth Night by the Athletic Association last Friday and Saturday, suffered some in this respect, but probably as little as any amateur performance which has been given in Lawrence for some time. Miss Georgia Brown, as Viola, at once the heroine and part in a manner which showed, even to those who had not witnessed her previous performances in Lawrence, that she was an experienced actress. Mr. Earnest Robinson kept his voice a little too much in the same key, but his oratorical tone was well suited to express the self-conscious love sickness of the Duke Orsini. Miss Marcella Howland rendered very well the face of the proud Olivia while Mr. Hall Riddle, by the aid of an excellent make up, contrived to look very much like Viola. So much so, indeed, that it seemed very natural for him to pass for his sister in the eyes of Olivia. The parts of the underplot were nearly all very well filled. The Whitman brothers, Abe Levy and Clarence Sears have frequently appeared upon the boards in Lawrence. That they should render their parts in a thoroughly creditable manner was a matter of course. But Miss Don Bowersock and Mr. Fred Miller are comparatively new to the stage, and the excellence of their work deserves special mention. Miss Bowersock's laugh captured the audience; it was decidedly contagious. Mr. Miller, as Sir Andrew Aguecheek, proved himself an excellent snecker, and also showed that he knew how to light a pipe. The underplot was somewhat over done throughout, but certainly not at the expense of laughter. One of the most pleasing features of the evening was the beautiful and artistic dance which concluded the play.
Seminary.
Mr. B. W. Woodward, of this city, read an interesting paper on "A Glance at New Spain," before the Seminary of Historical and Political Science, last Friday afternoon. He smoke of Mexico's condition while under Spanish rule, and showed how, through the extortion policy of Spain and the greed of Spanish adventurers and conquerers, the people were kept in such a state of subjugation that they had no fixed civil polity when they revolted from the mother country. This, too, was partly brought on by the indiscriminate blending of the races. The many adventurers who had no inclination to work must gain a support in some way, so the crown invented the system of en comienda by which each Spanish citizen was given control over a number of Indians, provided he looked after their welfare and relieved the home government of all responsibility. This soon developed into a system of hereditary vassalage, with which the lords were naturally loth to part.
THE ONE AND THE MANY. AN IDYL OF
THE PHILOSOPHERS.
OUR STUDY WINDOW.
In the old days when the problem of the One and the Many was unsolved and all the world was anxiously seeking for its solution, two venerable philosophers met by chance in a peaceful grove where stillness had never till then been broken by the voices of angry philosophers disputing upon the great questions of life and being. The philosophers recognized one another as members of rival schools, and without exchanging any superfluous and unmeaning words of greeting, as the vulgar do, they forthwith fell to discussing the problem of the One and the Many. They did not know what you and I know now, that between the propositions that all things are both many and one, and that all things are neither many nor one, there is no conflict all, but the most sublime and admirable harmony. For it was reserved to a later generation than theirs to discover the great truth that, in the highest realms of thought, contradictory propositions may not only both be true, but may even be made to lend to one another a mysterious strength which renders them absolutely impregnable to the malicious assaults of the septic.
At length the one who championed the belief that the Many are One, said to his opponent:
Age had not quenched in our philosophers the love of truth, nor rendered them less capable than they once were of righteous indignation at the spread of false and pernicious doctrines. The quiet grove, therefore, soon rang with sonorous periods wherein sarcasm and logic were blended in magnificent eloquence and scorn.
"At the edge of this grove there dwell a mysterious man who has charge of a strange book which he calls the Book of the Future. He permits none save philosophers to gaze upon its shadowy pages or hear the murmuring voices that issue from them, since none save philosophers so fully realize that the Future is the child of the Past as to be willing to believe in the reality of the revelations made by this wonderful book. I have often consulted this Book of the Future and have learned many things from it. In particular I have learned that, centuries hence, there is suddenly to spring forth from n. out of a now unknown sea a mighty nation, which, under the name of America, will fill the world with the renown of its marvelous achievements and whose people will be remembered by all succeeding generations of men, not only for their utilitarian scorn of the immaterial in life and thought, but also for the childlike simplicity of their faith in education as the panacea for human ills. These people are to believe in colleges, universities, and whatever has to do with education, as men in other lands and times have believed in gods, religions and churches. Let us go to the custodian of this book, and bid him open it at some page whereon is portrayed a great American college in the fullness of its life and activity. Perhaps from the learning of its professors, or the relations which exist among its students, we may get some ray of light upon what I see to you, in spite of all I have said, the still dark problem of the One and the Many."
"I will gladly go with you to consult the book you describe," regbed the other philosopher, who maintained that the One is Many; "since there can be no stronger confirmation of the truth of my views than this book is sure to give, by showing that there are Many (that is, more than one) ways of getting at the One truth."
So with feelings of inward contempt for one'another, but with an outward show of philosophic calm, the two venerable disputants took their way in silence to the place where the Book of the Future was kept.
They made known their errand to the keeper of the book. The keeper declared he would be glad to show them the marvellous volume, but that it would first be necessary for them to prove to
him that they were true philosophers. This they proceeded to do in a short but heated discussion in which one demonstrated conclusively that all things are ally, and the other proved as clearly that all things are dead and most always continue to be so. At the end of the discussion the keeper declared himself satisfied as to the justice of their claims to the title of philosopher, since their conclusions were truly philosophic and such as only philosophers could have arrived at. Accordingly he at once spread out the Book of the Future before them, and, after giving them certain directions to enable them to find what they wanted, he left them to make such use of the book as they saw fit.
The Book of the Future was a mighty volume, and so far unlike other books that the characters upon its shadowy pages were never at rest, but in eternal movement, which appeared both to the eye and the ear, and gave to the beholder the impression of a reality so remote as to be barely within the bounds of his perception. But in spite of the general impression of vagueness, there was not a feature of the scene before them that did not produce its due impression upon the sight or the hearing of the two philosophers
What they beheld as they gazed upon the changing page, was a modern American university. It was the hour for chapel exercises, and the students and members of the faculty were thronging into the hall set apart for those exercises.
The scene upon the shadowy page changed again and again in rapid succession, bringing before the philosophers the same spectacle of the assembly for chapel exercises upon many successive mornings. The face of the philosopher who maintained that the Many are One beamed with delight at what he saw.
"See the proof of the truth of my view and the falsity of yours," he cried to his companion. "A comon purpose brings all these people, the best of their age and race, together at this hour; a common faith—whether true or false it does not matter—calls the same words of reverence to their lips, and in all their bright faces I see mirrored the consciousness of their common humanity—a realization of the sublime thought that, though Many in appearance, they are One in reality."
To these eloquent remarks of his opponent, the other philosopher for some time vouchsaft no reply. Over his venerable face, as he gazed at the scene before him, there had been slowly creeping an expression of the deepest pain, which after a time changed in to bitter discuss. At length he spoke.
"I have lost my philosophical creed," he said in a dispairing tone, "but what I see here gives me no inclination to accept yours in its place. Though I can never again believe, as once did, that the One is Many, I am more thoroughly convinced than ever of the madness of your doctrine that the Many are One. Ponder for a moment upon the real meaning of some of the simplest aspects of the unpilosophical unmeaning we have seen performed here day after day, by what you style the best people of their age and race. See, for example, that bevy of young ladies who have just come in, and have taken their seats together in front of the main s盟. Morning after morning they have done the same thing. You have noticed that once or twice there has been a vacant seat or two where these girls sit. You have observed too, I daresay, what frantic efforts the girls have made on these occasions to discover the whereabouts of the missing member of their bevy, and the still more frantic efforts by which, after the harm they caused, attracting her attention and in at last compelling her to get up from the place where she is sitting, and come down to her accustomed seat among them. It must be that such conduct as this is consistent with, perhaps even required by, the canons of good taste recognized by these best people. For you will observe that it is the prettiest, the most refined looking, and the most neatly dressed

girls who adhere to the practice most consistently. Yander, for example, is a plainly dressed girl with homely though intelligent face. She always comes in alone, and there is never any vacant seat among friends for her. She has not failed to notice that there are always vacant seats for other girls, and in her homely countenance you and I may read (though her fellow students do not) how her bitter consciousness of this difference is slowly blighting all that is lovable, all that, in the most sacred sense of the word, is truly feminine in her nature. For can you doubt that as it is with this poor girl during the brief chapel hour, so also it must be in the class room and in all the circumstances of her college life? God pity the girl in college whose face is homely and whose manners are not in some way winning or attractive! One of two bad things such a girl is certain to become—either an entirely strong minded and unwomanly woman, or a morbid and envious creature, who soon frets her life out, after having been a far greater curse to herself and to the world than she would have been had she never seen the inside of a college wall"
During this long speech of the former advocate of the doctrine that the One is Many, rapid transitions had been in progress upon the pages of the Book of the Future, and the changed scene which the philosophers now beheld indicated the lapse of several years. But, though changed much in detail, the scene was still the same as assembling of the students for chapel services upon which they had been gazing all the while.
"See," continued the philosopher who had spoken last, "the majority of the students still come in and take their seats in groups, larger or smaller, just as they did when we first saw them. And hark, do you not catch the drift of those malicious whispers that are passing back and forth between the members of that little group of well dressed young men, seated in the farthest corner of the room? The subjects of their remarks, judging from the direction of their glances, is some one or more members of that group near the door. Observe, too, that in the course of years there has been some breaking up in these various groups.
For example, that tall young man who has just come in, and dropped with an air of indifference into the first vacant seat he found, was once, you remember, a very conspicuous and loyal member of that whispering group. The expression upon his face and his general air seem to say that he feels he has outgrown the callow youths with whom he once associated, and that he has found other ways of attracting the attention of his fellow students than by displaying himself as a number of a herd, or else that he has become wisely indifferent as to whether he attracts their attention at all or not. But I am weary of looking at it all," he added with a sigh as he closed the book. "What we have seen is, I fear, hardly of a nature to arouse in us any very extravagant admiration for these best people of the best age and nation of the world."
"And what philosophical lesson do you draw from it all?" asked his companion thoughtfully and in a very unphilosophically humble tone.
"That the One is not Many, and still less the Many, One," replied the other; "and that even in man, whatever a kindly but foolish sentimentalism may preach, there is no living sense of a common humanity, nor any likelihood that such a sense will ever be developed. That, in a word, the Many are hopelessly and irremediably Many, and that he alone is the true philosopher who can calmly accept this gloomy but unalter able fact." And acquiescing in this conclusion, which to us seems quite ridiculous, enlightened as we are, and living amid happy social conditions in which all the fairest dreams of the humanitarian have been realized, the two venerable philosophers separated to meet no more in frenzied discussion of the problem of the One and the Many.

The story is told by Chancellor Snow of a young man who called on him the other day to see about entering the University. The prosopective student explained that he had just come from a certain western county and during the next two months he would like to take up some of the higher branches. He understood that tuition was free here. The Chancellor inquired what branches he would like to pursue. "Well, I don't know." replied the youth. "I believe I would like to study bookkeeping, penmanship and arithmetic."
Photographic Views.
Professor Williston and Mr Tucker will soon finish about 150 views for the World's Fair. They will be views of the interior of various rooms in the University buildings, McCook Field, the athletic teams, enlarged portraits of the Chancellor and ex-Chancellors, and, in fact, representations of everything of interest connected with the University.
These views are of large size, and will be placed in swinging glass frames 22 inches in width by 28 in length. Each frame will contain from four to eight pictures, and the frames are mounted on two racks, thirty in a rack. The racks are six feet high and occupy a floor space six feet in diameter. One of them will be placed in the Kansas building, and the other in the educational exhibit in the Department of Liberal Arts. After the fair, one of them will probably be placed in the University library and the other in the state house at Topeka.
On the 20th of this month the "Annual" will out, and will be distributed to subscribers on that day. However, as the cutie edition will not be ready for distribution then, the Board of Publication has decided that of the first lot received no person will be allowed to take more than one copy, no matter how many he may have subscribed for. This restriction is necessary that all subscribers may be able to get a copy from the limited number which will be ready by the 20th. The remaining copies will, however, be on hands a very few days later, and those who have subscribed for more than one copy will then be supplied with the full number for which their names are on the subscription book. In no case will a subscriber be permitted to take a copy until he has paid the advance subscription price of one dollar. Subscriptions will still be received from students and members of the faculty, up to the 20th, after which date the uniform price of one dollar and fifty cents per copy will be charged.
It is not now necessary to enumerate the many excellent things the "Annual" will contain, or to try to give any detailed account of what it will be from an artistic and literary standpoint, since that has already been often done in the various University publications, in so far as it is possible to do it in words. The Board has labored faithfully and long to make the "Annual" a success. It confidently awaits the result of its labs, believing that the criticism of the University world upon its work will be prompted by the same spirit of fairness in which that work has been executed.

A year ago silver prints were used for such views as these Bromide prints are seldom found in the west, being very expensive; yet they are far superior to ordinary prints. They do not have the gloss of ordinary photographs; yet they are more realistic. They are very similar to crayon portraits.
The University can now do better photographic work than any photographing establishment in Lawrence or Kansas City, as it has superior equipment. Professor Blake hopes to have a room especially adapted to photographic work in the new physics building. The "photographic studio" is now in the attic of Snow Hall.
H. J. Withington returned Monday from Galesburg, Ill., where he attended the Western Deputation Conference of the Young Men's Christian Association. This conference meets once a year, and is composed wholly of college men, two from each state, who meet to discuss and formulate plans for conducting the work of their respective districts during the coming year. In the United States there are three deputation conferences held yearly; one in the south, one in the east and one in the west, and these are conducted by the International College committee. The two deputation men from each state manage the college associations of their state and are in regular correspondence with the International Committee in New York. Each state executive committee pays the expenses of the delegates from its own state. Mr. Withington will give a report of the conference at Music Hall next Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. He will endeavor to set forth the point which appeared to him most practical to the Christians of K. U.
An exhibition game of base ball will be played with Washburn one week from next Saturday on McCook Field. This will be the first game of the season. As Washburn is making especial preparation, an interesting game is expected.
COMMUNICATIONS.
The Editor of the Review, in the last number, complains of the lack of interest in the publication which is shown by the studedits. Allow me to say that there is just one sufficient reason for this lack of interest. The students of the University are not allowed to have a voice in the management of the Review. It is one of the fundamental characteristics of human nature to be interested in, and work for those things in which one has some personal property. There is but one way to increase permanently the interest in the Review, and that is to make it possible for those who so desire to become stockholders in the company and have a voice in the selection of officers and the management of the publication. When the writer, with several other students, asked to obtain shares of Review stock, he was told that there were none for sale. The attempt to keen honors and privileges in the hands of a select few will sooner or later result in making those honors no honors at all, especially when it is necessary, in order to keep them, to use disreputable methods, and to fly in the face of the institution of the organization by controlling shares which, to all outward appearances, are not owned by anyone.

Seminary.
At the Seminary last Friday, James Willis Gleed, of Topeka, read a paper on Law and Lawyers. He spoke of the popular impressions concerning the bar, and explained the reasons for such misconceptions. The work of lawyers carries them to the most inmost confidences of men, appealing to their selfishness in nearly all law cases. The cases are concerned mostly with property rights, which most closely affect people, and when one side wins a case the other always knows that it was won by fraud. Coming so closely in contact with the pulse of the people, the bar is an accurate index of the political and moral condition of a community.
There is no larger percent of unprincipled men among lawyers than among any other class. It is said a lawyer will take any case for the money. No man can tell the merits of a case before it is laid before a jury; a cause may be bad in law but good in morals; law is not always justice. Admission to the bar should be a stricter criterion of education and morality. People should know more about the common points of law, and should have a greater love of right. The virtue and force of law is in the hearts of the people.
Our weather prophet was round this week in his room busily engaged in "figuring up" the weather for next week. He said he had overheard a young lady say last Sunday that she was very much indebted to the JOURNAL for her peace of mind while listening to the sermon. She had started to church with an umbrella although the sun was shining very brightly at the time. During the sermon a sudden clouding up took place. Her unspeakable peace of mind—a new bonnet and a good umbrella—was worth more than the subscription price to the JOURNAL for years.
Weather Prophecy.
Predictions from April 22—29 inclusive: The storm dates for this period are 25, 26, and 27. The weather will be cloudy and rainy with intervals of sunshine. On one of the days the rain will be more constant. Saturday of this week, like Saturday of last, will be unsafe for picnics unless covered wagons are provided. On leaving, our prophet said, "By the way, that storm of last week was delayed a day or two on account of the wind. If it had not been for this, it would have been here on time. It had to come against the wind."
The class in physiological chemistry during the past week were engaged in very interesting laboratory work, the manufacture of pepsin. For the isolation of pepsin, the inner lining of the stomach of the hog is macerated in diluted hydrochloric acid and the resulting solution is precipitated by chloride of sodium. Two forms of pepsin are produced by slightly varying the operation, crystal and powdered pepsin. When purified, this albuminous substance is so powerful that one grain of it will cause the digestion of 2,000 grains of coagulated albumen or raw meat.
Prof. Sayre has been presented with a small vacuum pan by Mr. Walter Underwood, of Hutchinson, Kansas, to be used in his laboratory for the evaporation of solutions of organic compounds in vacuo. It is well known that organic compounds decompose readily at the temperature of the body, and any high temperature, such as boiling destroys them. With this vacuum pan boiling can be produced at a body temperature, and solutions of organic substances quickly evaporated with no fear of injury.
An American Naturalist in Mashonaland.
This is the heading of an article in a copy of the Mashonaland Times, recently received by Chancellor Snow. The paper is published in Mashonaland, South Africa. The naturalist referred to is William Harvey Brown, '88, who for the past three years has been in South Africa as the representative of the Smithsonian Institution and the National museum at Washington. The article gives an account of his work in Mashonaland and also a catalogue of the animals he has obtained, among which are the zebra, black rhinoceros, elephant, buffalo, guu and hippopotamus. He has also seen the white rhinoceros, an animal supposed to be extinct and for which European museums are offering $2,500.
Mr. Brown writes to Chancellor Snow that he has become acclimated to South Africa and no longer regards it as a prison. Salisbury, the town at which he is located, has a council, stores, saions, churches, a bank, libraries, a theatre and on the whole is very similar to an American village. He also states that in one hunting trip she killed forty-four head of large game, incuding one black rhinoceros, six buffaloes and eight eland. He does not say when he will return to America.
Athletics.
There will be an exhibition game here tween Washburn and K. U. Saturday, April 29.
K. U. expects great things of her ball nine this season, and if they do not want to disappoint us they must work, work, WORK.
Great interest is displayed in tennis this spring. The half dozen courts open to students are used every good afternoon.
The boating race this year promises to be the most exciting ever held here. Many crews have announced their intention of competing for the honors.
Next Saturday afternoon there will be an exhibition ball game between Baker and K. U. on McCook field. Every student should attend, and yell "Rock Chalk."
Much interest is being shown in gymnasium building just now. Yale has just completed one, Harvard, West Point and K. U. are each soon to have one, and Washburn is working hard for one.
As a great amount of praise had come to our ears concerning the splendid work done by our team in practice games we were surprised the other evening to see errors made in succession by every infielder of the "supposed" Varsity nine. Can we hope to win at that rate?
The first sophomore debates occurred Monday. The questions were: First, Should the War Department have control of Indian affairs? Second, Should the college course be shortened to three years? Although the idea of class debates is a new one here, several of the speakers acquitted themselves with credit. At the close of each debate a vote was taken on the merits of the arguments offered. The affirmative was given the decision in both cases.
The statutory in the main corridor is a feature of the University too sedum noticed. The statuses of the classical museum can scarcely be compared to these creations of modern art. In them we can almost suspect at times that we detect the signs of life. Resting majestically against the corners of the corridors they seem ever to be inviting the passer-by to examine the perfection of their workmanship.

This is an age of short cuts and all are hurrying to "get there." In the mad rush for the end, short cuts are taken through barren fields, while the longer way leads through lanes luxurient with fragrant flowers. Strength and excellence take time, and the thoroughness acquired by taking a longer, slower route in matters of permanence is the very es-
mental of success. Scholars of broad culture are the result of thorough, extended mental training. "The assimilation of knowledge, the knitting into one's fibre is slow processes taking time."
COMMANCHE, the war horse recently mounted by Prof. Dyche was, until his death, the only horse receiving a pension from the government. His pension was sufficient for his support and for the employment of a man to take care of him.
THE student who has time for nothing except that prescribed in the curriculum of his college course is one-sided. If he has no time for "outside" work he will be a very helpless creature when once he gets outside. No matter where we go the demand will ever be. "help me, help me." The selfish man can always excuse himself by saying, "I haven't time."
By urgent request the Athletic Association will repeat its presentation of Twelfth Night, next Friday. The play and acting are of such excellence that a repetition of [the performance] will be welcomed by many who were unable to attend or who failed for other reasons to go. The play should have a crowded house as all the proceeds go to the Association.
ALL students who failed to attend Twelfth Night last week will now have another opportunity to show their loyalty to their school and to contribute to the gymnastium fund. It is said that a large number of the students who usually go to entertainments remained away from this one. This should not be, for Twelfth Night, as presented by the present cast is as, good as any of the shows frequenting Lawrence, and is, be sides, pre-eminently a University affair. Let all remember this and help the good cause.
In years past our base ball teams have not been, par excellence, what is desired. We have relied too much on the foot ball team for a high position in athletic circles and have neglected the base ball team. This year much good work has been done to develop a nine which can cope successfully with our antagonists, but much more must be done before the victories will be ours. Athletes in training must be regular and moderate above all things, and it is as absurd for any of the base ball team to claim that they can neglect this great principle and still carry off the honors as it would have been for the foot ball team to do so. Victory is not won by boasting, and by competent judges it is said that our nine will need to do much more hard work. With the splendid facilities of this year, all members of the teams should bend every energy to the task of making an impregnable team, and carrying off the pennant.
WHEN men have become masters of their professions important positions come to them unsought, and they have the power to meet these greater demands. Position is for a man just what he can make out of it, and no more. The all important question is, has he gained by careful painstaking preparation the strength of vision for this larger outlook, the power to handle this greater opportunity. If he has not, then his incompetence will be more strongly demonstrated by his conspicuous position. The student should ask himself what kind of a man he will be when he shall have come to maturity. Has he laid his foundation stones true to the line, solid and firm, whereon he may rear a superstructure, that will be complete and perfect, when he reaches the terminus that is marked by a mound of earth? Has he reared a building that will stimulate others to become master workmen? The student must work earnestly but deliberately and though he may reach his place in life later in years, he will be more "richly laden and better fitted to wield the new powers, to grasp the new opportunities which he will find awaiting him." —Writer in Rambler.

OUR STUDY WINDOW.
CHRONICLE OF THE DOINGS OF BOB, AS
THEY WERE SET DOWN BY THE
And it came to pass that on a certain day the sons and daughters of the Temple were gathered together and came into the presence of their Leaders; each to his own place, they that consumed themselves with acids unto their graduates, and they that tangled their tongues with German, unto Meinhern.
SCRIBES.
And they that struggled with English assembled themselves together and sat down before their Teacher; and it is they that were known by the red lak upon their papers, for it was not then as it had been in the days of the Children of Israel, that they who were marked with red, as with blood, should escape; for whosoever among them had much red upon his paper, the same escaped not, but was reproved by his Teacher, and his name was marked out from the book of the class and was no more found therein.
And it came to pass that, as they set themselves down before their Teacher, their countenances were light, for the days of their vacation drew night, wherein they thought to do no work. And as they came before their Leader, he spake unto them and said, Get ye up and be gone; for I would not that ye come again unto me till the time of your vacation be accomplished. And they would have got themselves away, but he detained them saying, Yet further would I speak, that when ye come again ye shall not come empty banded, but with themes and descriptions therewith to make offering, that ye may be accepted of the Teachers of this Temple.
And they were sore dismayed; and their countenances fell; and, as they went forth again away from their Teacher, they complained one to another, and said, Lo! now is our vacation become a delusion and a snare, a time of hard labor, wherein we shall see no rest, neither surcease of labor. And they were exceeding sorrowful, and went out from before their Teacher filled with murmurings and dissatisfaction.
And there went out with them a certain one of bold manner, who was called Bob, which is, by interpretation, Incorrigible. And when he was come forth from before the face of his Instructor, he turned again, and spat upon his hands, and made divers rude and threatening motions therewith at the back of his Teacher, and his Teacher knew not that he did it.
And when he had done so, he got himself away with haste, and said, I will go down from the hilltop into the valley; and I will not come hither again until I bring a theme as an offering, to offer up in the Temple, that I might be accepted of the Teachers therein.
And he betok himself down from the hilltop into the valley. And when he was come into the valley, behold! a way that led up from the water; and the same was good to look upon; but when he was come upon it, it was full of loose boards and divers pitfalls, so that it was not safe to go thereon.
And he looked up over across to the other side, and behold a maiden, and she was beautiful to look upon, so that he looked not where he walked.
And it came to pass that, as he walked and looked not where he stepped, by reason of the beauty of the maiden, he put his foot upon a board, and it was loose. And the board flew up and smote him on the elbow; and he put his foot into the hole where the board that smote him had been, and stumbled. And he fell with a loud noise and with much ciatter, so that all the dwellers upon that way heard it and marvelled, greatly, and came forth out of their habitations and beheld him.
And he rose up, and rubbed his elbow.
And he looked about, and saw the people, and they laughed at him in derision, saying. See the Dude, and, Look at the spring suit. Behold! it has got him down.
And he saw a smile on the face of the maiden; and she opened wide her mouth
and laughed him to scorn, so that his face was red like unto the card whereon the Teacher was wont to set down his class-record.
And he would have got himself away, but he could not, for that his ankle was turned. And he set himself down by the way, and lifted up his voice and be-walled his misfortune. And they brought a chariot, such as was called a wheelburrow, and set him therein. And the maiden was still laughing; wherefore that place is called to this day Hefell-landshesh-outed, that is, the Place of the Masher's Tumble.
And when they had brought him to his habitation, they lifted him up out of the chariot and bore him within his dwellings. And all the neighboring people betook themselves to see him, and comfort him, saying, How did it happen? and Well, I declare!
And it came to pass that he sturred not out for five days, until the time of his vacation was accomplished. And he was full of pains, and his anger was hot within him; and he spoke harshly to all than ministered to him, and he cursed his luck, so that all that heard him were astonished.
And on the fifth day he called for scribes; and when they were come, he caused them to write, that he might fulfill his yow, that he would not return to the Temple without an offering, that he might be accepted of the Teachers therein. And the scribes wrote as he ordered, and what they wrote is set down in this Chronicle; and the same is true and faithful as it was recorded by the scribes

AN INCIDENT AT A RAILWAY STATION.
AN INCIDENT AT A RAILWAY STATION.
In going by rail from Smithville to Watota, being tired and only too glad of an opportunity to prepare our lessons (we were returning from home after our spring vacation) my room mate and I decided to eat our lunch in the waiting room and then study. "The 12 o'clock whistle blew just as our train pulled in, and it was not long before the loafers and those employed about the station went off to dinner. Only one person besides ourselves remained, the colored girl who takes charge of the waiting room. She was about eighteen years of age, neat in her dress, and with a pleasant face. After we had eaten our lunch and gotten out our books, she began her regular sweeping. We could see no dirt on the floor, and it was evident that she did it just because she was told to do it. It was impossible to keep from smiling if you watched her handle her broom. I have watched men raking garden beds and her motions were the same as theirs. At last her task was finished. She was leaning out of the window, her elbows resting on the broad sill, and her knees in the seat below. Suddenly a smile flitted across her face, followed by "Houdy, Mistah Greene."
Mr. Green made no reply, but just kept smiling at her.
"Yo' were not out los' night?" the girl continued.
"No," said Mr. Greene, "did you have a nice time?"
"We had such a long sermon. — I didn't enjoy it tho'. Ole Miss Anderson fainted dead away 'fo times, I don' bebe in disaint business."
"Is dot so?" Mr. Greene found time to remark.
"Yus, and Mist Nancy she read a song.
She thinks she can read, but she con',
an' what do yr' 'spose she done? She
stood up dere in fron' and just read dot
song backords. I jus' 'bout died lafn."
At this stage of the conversation, a gust of wind swept through the open window, and for a moment, we could not catch what was said. When the wind quieted down again the girl's voice was still to be heard.
"Alnt vr' glad Lent is over?" she asked him.

"Why, I donno's I am," Mr. Greene said.
"Well, I am, I'm tired of this dull season."
Something recalled the sermon of the day before to the girl, and she broke out anew.
"Did yo' notice Miss Fanny's new spring bonnet?"
Mr. Green could not remember that he had, and probably thinking that he had spent enough time in idle conversation, smiled very kindly and walked away.
The girl watched him for a moment, then turned round, looked at us and slipped down into the seat on which her knees had rested. She was silent for a moment, then after drawing a deep sigh, she groaned, "I'm tired of this waitin' room business: it's so 'seldom dot yo' see yo' frien's." C. B.

Meeting of the Acadeny of Language and Literature.
The tenth annual meeting of the Academy of Language and Literature for the state of Kansas was held in Lawrence last week, April 13th and 13th.
Most University people are familiar in a general way, with the nature of the work the Academy is doing and with the place it fills in the literary life of Kansas. Its object, as stated in the constitution, is "to promote the love and study of literature and original production therein." Most of the leading literary people of the state belong to it. University people have been prominent in it from the first", and at the present time no inconsiderable part of its members is made up of students and members of the University faculty.
The first session was held on the evening of April 12th at Music Hall. The opening address was delivered by the president of the Academy, Miss Ida A. Ahlborn, of Baker University. The subject of the address was "The Poet's Relation to the Poets." Miss Ahlborn discussed in this address the origin, nature and use of the poetical nature.
The other two sessions of the Academy were held at the University next day, in Adelphic hall. The first paper read was on "Kansas Biography" by Miss Carrie M. Watson. Recent Kansas books reviewed by Miss Watson were as follows: "Solomith" by S. M. Osmond; "Poems," by Cora M. Stockton; "Prairie Flowers," (poems) by John W. Beebe; "Kansas Day" (poems) by F,H. Barrington; "The Sod House in Heaven" (poems) by Harry E. Mills; "The Kansas Conflict" by Chas, M. Robinson; "Letters" by Chas F. Scott; "Memorial of S. N. Wood" by his wife; "American Mental Arithmetic" by Prof. M. A. Bailey; "Common Injurious Insects of Kansas" by Vernon L. Kellog; and "Direct L'gislation to the People" by Nathan Cree.
The next paper was "Dialect Notes" by Prof. Carruth. The Professor spoke chiefly of some peculiar works and expressions which we use in calling or speaking to domestic animals. Among the most common of these words are those used in calling cattle, such as "sook" and "cohoy bossy", and "Prig" and "pig-ne" used in calling hogs.
Prof. A. G. Canfield next spoke briefly on "Literary Clubs," calling particular attention to the University extension clubs and to the recently organized Art League of Leavenworth.
The next feature of the programme was a "Symposium on Great Novelists." Scott was discussed by John McDonald, of Topeka; Hawthorn by Prof. E.M. Hopkins of the University; George Eliot by Mrs. Humphrey of Junction City; and the Polish Novelist Sienkiewicz by H.G. Larimer of Topeka. Mr. McDonald pronounced the "Heart of Midlothian" Scott's masterpiece. Mrs. Humphrey believed that George Eliot had written at least three masterpieces—"Adam Bede," "Romola," and "Silas Marner." Prof. Hopkins denied that Hawthorn was morbid. Although he may have grown more stern as he advanced in his literary life, there is a vein of kindly humor running through all his work. After the Academy had, in a measure, overcome the preliminary difficulties which naturally attach to the pronunciation of such a name as that of Sienkiewics, Mr. Larimer proceeded to introduce him as the author of two great historical war novels—"Fire and Sword" and "The Deluge." Mr. Larimer was of the opinion that he who reads "Fire and Sword" even in a translation, will be unwilling to exclude its author from a place among the masters of fiction.
At the afternoon session of the Academy Mr. B. W. Woodward concluded the "Symposium on Great Novelists" with a discussion of Mr. Howells. Mr. Woodward thought that Howells has created many characters that will live, and that when he passes away the critics will unite in praising him and perhaps form a Howells' cult.
The "Symposium on Great Novelists" was followed by a "Symposium on Great Poets." Mr. A. Fullerton read a
paper on Burus and some brief selections from his poems. Burus wrote what he felt and lived, not what he had read. The character he describes are the characters he knew. Like a true poet he had alternate moods of galley and despondency. The Rev. A S Dechant, of Abilene, read a paper on "Byron." Almost every man woman and child has an opinion on Byron, and is ready to express it. The most favorable criticisms have been passed upon him. Will his poetry stand the test of time? As long as there are sins in high places there will be a place for the satirist; and Byron was no mean satirist.
Mr. Will A. White of Kansas City then recited to the Academy some of his stories in prose and verse, after which the "Symposium" was continued by a paper on Shakespeare by Dr. W. H Wynn of Atchison. The theory that Bacon wrote the Shakespeare plays is nature, not art, yet nature which is the highest art. An inspired plebeian was necessary to write them, not such a man as Bacon is known to have been. Mr. Allen D. Gray of Topeka next read a paper on Shelley. Shelley was no misanthropie. A bitter opponent of social conventionsality, he was always gentle to men and women. His nature was benevolent and religious, yet he could not tolerate Christianity. The perfectibility of man was the goal of his aspirations. He must ever be ranked high among those who have battled for the emancipation of the human race. The Symposium was concluded by a paper on Lowell, by Mr. A. W. Dans of Topeka. "The Present Crisis," is the noblest of Lowell's earlier poems. Mr. Gray pronounced it in its way, the loftiest poem with which he was acquainted. "The Cathedral" is one of the grandest odes in the language—perhaps the grandest. Lowell was always a man of the world, in touch with society and passing events. What he says of himself in the "Fable for Critics" is a just criticism and explains why he cannot be regarded as a poet of the highest class. Yet he has written one master piece—the "Bigelow Papers." The programme ended with a brief discussion of this last paper. In this discussion Prof. Carruth and Mr. Woodward expressed their dissent from the view that the "Bigelow Papers" is Lowell's Masterpiece; both expressing a doubt as to whether a satire in verse, and especially in dialect verse ought ever to be looked upon as a literary masterpiece.
The Academy then elected the following officers for the coming year: President, L. D. Whittemore; vice president, Miss Carrie Watson; secretary, Miss Florence Snow; treasurer, Mr B. W. Woodward; executive committee, T. E.
The following persons were elected to membership in the Academy: Mrs. F. H Snow, Vinton Phenis, Laura E Lockwood, W. H. Wynn, H. G. Lartimer, W. E Higgins, Miss Emma B. Rosebough, W. H. Reno, Miss Mary W. Barkley, Miss Rose Morgan, F. J Lange, Miss E H. Galloo, Prof. H. B. Newson, J. H. Mustard, H. L. Perkin C. S Griffin, Mrs. L. H. Perkins, Edward Hafern.
Prospective Teachers!
Dewey, H. G. Larimer and A. G. Canfield.
Any student wishing to find a position as teacher in Kansas schools should make out a statement including na me, work qualified to take up, amount of experience in teaching, (including places and exact positions held), and leave it at the Cancellor's office.
At the meeting of the State Board of Education, a great change was made in the requirements for appointment as institute conductors and instructors. A candidate for conductor must be twenty-five years of age and have had five years' experience in teaching, two of which must have been in Kansas. He must either have had one year's experience as a conductor, or be a graduate of the University, the State Normal, the Agricultural College or some college approved by the Board. The candidate for instructor is subject to the same requirements, except that he need be only twenty-three years of age and have had two years experience in teaching, one of which must have been in Kansas.

The meeting of the Kansas Academy of Language and Literature at the University last Thursday very forcibly calls to mind the rule of the faculty which declares that no person not connected with the University shall give an address while classes are being held. Verily I save unto ye, it is not the laws, but the makers of the laws, that rule the land.
The class in domestic and sanitary chemistry made some sponge cake and biscuits the other morning. One member of the class would not assist in the ceremonies, as he is soon to take unto himself a wife. The man who ate the cake and biscuits is dead.
There are a large number of students on the hill who are contemplating the organization of an ananias society. Eligible candidates are so numerous that it will be hard to limit the number. At present the leaders are Troxel, Hickey, Madden, Stanley, Tom Breese, Owen, Kelsey, Phillips and William C. Fogle. They expect to get up a contest for Field Day.
The University newspaper is a factor of no mean importance in the development of latent literary genius. Toit comes the flowing offering of the freshman, the vernal verses of the sophomore, and the wearisome discussion of the junior. These can be politely declined, graciously_refused or simply rejected as the case may require. But when the august senior, having completed advanced composition, offers an item we must accept and publish it. Here it is: The seniors of the High School and the freshmen of the University are studying botany and use presses made by the same man; yet this man charges the University freshmen fifteen cents per paper, while he charges the High School people twenty-five cents. A pretty senior girl, wishing to save ten cents, bashedfully approached a freshman and after some explanation, said, "Will you buy me a press?" Thereupon he offered to give her several free of charge.
The program for Kent Club, Saturday 9 a.m. is:
Music-Bronson, Higgins, Morgan and Bennett.
Declamation—G. W., Ellis. Paper-C. A. Budd
Impromptn speeches—Morgan, Harmon, Raines, McKinley, Stephens, and Brooks. Debate: Resolved, that the Sherman silver law should be replaced at once by a free and unlimited coinage. Speech: Negative. J. A. Orr and C. C. Swarens; negative, Fremont Leidy and Pliny M. Harmon. All students are invited to be present.
Tailor made princess coats of satin are among the novelties. These are made in black brocade striped with black satin or figured with colored blossoms. These have sleeves of great size, large flaring revers and a high medical collar.
A Summer School.
A summer school will be formed in Lawrence next June under the management of professors and graduate students of the University. Its aim will be to prepare students for entrance into the University and to provide collegiate instruction for teachers and others who are unable to attend school in the winter. Work done in this summer school will be accepted by the University. No student is advised to pursue more than one study at one time, as double work will be done. The instructors are Prof. Sterling, Greek and Latin; Prof. Newson, mathematics; M. E. Rice, physics and mathematics; R. D. O'Leary, French and English; J. G. Wine, German and History. The school takes up June 12 and lasts eight weeks.

One of the most interesting features of the Lawrence Record nowadays is the items from the STUDENTS JOURNAL which silently find their way into its local columns. The Record is improving. A month or so ago, it thought that the faculty should "abolis all such organizations as the Oratorical Association and the STUDENTS JOURNAL."

REMEMBER the oratorical contest to-
morrow night. ___
STUDENTS cannot bear to take back seats in any social movements. At last reports, the striking students of the Dakota college were still bravely holding out for their rights against the tyranny of their instructors.
The sweeping victory over the Baker base ball team, on last Saturday, reminds one that once upon a time just such a victory in foot ball made our boys so confident of the next victory that they became negligent. Eternal vigilance is the key to success.
THE University band, which has lived in seclusion for some months of practice, showed its loyalty by appearing at the opening game of the base ball season. For a first effort the music was good, and, under the direction of Prof. Bell, the band will add charm and enthusiasm to athletics.
ARBOR DAY was quite generally observed by the colleges of the state, and proved to be a day pleasantly and profitably spent by the students. Trees and shrubs were placed about the various colleges "and were exhorted by song and oratory to do their utmost to grow and beautify their surroundings. K. U. should have "kept up with the procession."
The few days of returning coolness, although a blessing to the over-burdened tailors, have provoked so much dissatisfied talk that Summer has almost decided never again to show her shinning face until she is ready to stay all the time. However, her femininity will only too gladly take advantage of the principle that only an occasional glance begets a stronger longing.
THE oratorical contest tomorrow night will be free to all, and the orators should be greeted by a large audience of students. The committee has made every effort to give a pleasant contest. All who attend will be given a good evening's entertainment. The program will be short, as but three orators will appear, and the music will be select and good. Come out and show your good will for the good of the school.
During the windy weather the loose window sashes kept up such a joyful clatter that many times, during the short hills, the professors' falsetto voices could be heard ringing out loud and clear, and at such time the students would know that the class was still in session. By very slight attention the rattling windows could be quieted during a wind. Especially should the windows in the chapel be fastened—at least for the contest tomorrow night.
THE prompt action of the Delaware, Ohio, University in expelling the nine students who last week so brutally branded five fellow students with lunar caustic, is to be commended; but it is to be hoped, that the civil law also will be meeting out to them as justice demands. The five men have suffered much internal pain, and will have to carry on their faces for life the evidences of a bitter party fight. No matter how serious the differences existing between the two

factions, such brutality was uncalled for, and the least that ought to be done with the nine assailants, is to make them serve in the penitentiary the full limit of the law's punishment, twenty years.
The new suffrage law of Belgium pays quite a tribute to education when it confers an additional vote on all men over 25 years of age who have completed a course in some institution of higher education. European countries are coming more and more to recognize the absolute advantage to a state of getting its educated men interested in its welfare.
At the close of the school year the Emporia Normal will conduct an excursion to the World's Fair. A visit to the Fair will be of incalculable benefit as an education, if the sightseer will keep a definite purpose in view, and do more than simply gaze at the wondrous works of science and art. The Normal's plan is certainly a good one for the large number of students who will not attend the Fairrin company with brothers and sisters; and which the University students might do well to consider.
Neosho county has adopted a good method of supplying infected chinch bugs to the farmers of that county. The county commissioners have ordered a repository to be established, where live, healthy bugs may be exchanged for diseased ones. In this way better attention can be given to the cultivation of the disease. The benefit to the state would be greatly increased if more counties would thus aid Chancellor Snow in his crusade of extermination.
THE fact that only three orations were handed in for the Spring Contest is a strong proof of the deplorable state of oratory and public speaking in the University. We give much time and energy to athletic enterprises, the benefit of which is merely physical and of short duration, and entirely neglect that accomplishment which, once acquired, always remains with a man, and is a fit complement to his University education, giving him the power to apply his knowledge to the benefit of humanity. The University student owes it to society to use his knowledge and power for the advantage of its less fortunate members. If he neglects to acquire the best means to pay this debt he neglects a solemn duty.
At present our University has made no provision to teach the branches wherein graduates must be examined before they can obtain teachers' certificates. History of Education is the only one of these courses given at present, but an addition of short courses in philosophy of education, school laws, school management and methods of teaching could be made at but a slight expense, and a student could easily add these to his regular four years work without any particular inconvenience. Since state certificates will be granted to graduates of the University, the attendance here will be greatly increased by students who would otherwise attend some normal school; and, in view of this fact, the University would do well to make immediate arrangements to teach short courses in the branches which such students must have to obtain state certificates. The state legislature has done its part, and it now remains for the University to help the students as much.
The Robinson Rifles have just received their pay for services rendered in the late trouble at Topeka. The captain received $5 per day; first lieutenant, $4.17; second lieutenant, $3.80; orderly sergeant, 83 cents; other sergeants, 67 cents; corporals, 60 cents; and privates 53 cents each. They were paid for four days services.
J. H. Mustard received a visit from his brother Saturday and Sunday.
OUR STUDY WINDOW.
AN ALLEGORY.
The leaders of the folk had led them into a narrow dale, whence they could so longer look upon the foam of the silver sea behind them, or the golden glow of the sun-hit hills before, upon which their eyes had been wont to reside with so much gladness and hope. Behind them now a steep and awful wall o stone, played over by sheets of hazy fire, and strenued by huge, glistening bone and grinning skulls, hld from their yearning eyes the feathery foam of the silver sea, and right before them a thick and pathless must let not the smallest glimmer of golden sunlight through it, to tell of the blessed sunset which many of them still believed to be there, though they saw it not. The dale where they now rested was bright enough for some of the folk, but others longed for a glimpse of the silver sea-foam and the golden hills. Some of them had beer all along too busily at work to know that they were not still among the wide moors where they had formerly dwelt; most of them had been plucking blossoms by the wayside, and were reckless of the fair landscape; a few, however, had marked the narrowness of their new home, and were weary and sad. Men in dark clothes went about among these and told them they had but to shut their eyes and they might again behold the silver sea foam and the golden hills. Many did so, and their hearts were glaiddened.
There were hardy men who went busily about in the fields, picking up little bugs and pulling them to pieces. If one of them found a new kind of bug he would raise a shout, and all the others would come running to see it. Their their eyes had grown so big and bulging from looking at the little bugs that they could see clean through them at first sight; but some of the folks said these men were so short-sighted that they mistook the mist before them for a mighty sunset. There was a wise man sitting on the top of a steep hill near by, striving to see through the mist with a spy glass of his own making. The mist fell in cold and clammy-drops upon his wrinkled forehead. Sometimes he would take away the glass piece from his spy glass, and put one of the bugs in its stead; but then he could see even less than before. The bug-hunters said he did not know how to do it.
Every day the wise man went out into the wan mist, and a little band of men and women always followed him from afar; some of them boldly, some sadly, and some very slowly and fearfully. The youth and the maiden stepped forward with locked hands and shining eyes. They were both bold and fearful, but most of the time they thought they saw bright and lovely beings in the shifting mist. The wise man had been farther than they and he had seen nothing; but he did not always say them nay, for he saw that their belief filled them with strength for the way-faring. Sometimes he thought that their young eyes saw better than his; and when they asked him about the unknown way he only smiled. Yet the youth and the maiden loved him. And so daily they fared into the mist.
One day the wise man did not come back out of the mist, and the folk knew that the same weird had seized him that must one day seize them all; and they were sad. Had he gone to some lovely, unseen land beyond, or had he melted away into the mist and the darkness? No one seemed to know; even some of the dark-clothed men shook their heads and said nothing. The youth and the malden, though they had not known the wise-man so long or so well as their elders, had loved him most of all, and were sadder than the others.
"Oh!" cried she, "must we think he has melted into the murk and the mist forever?"
The maiden wept and shuddered.
"He has always told us so." sadly answered the youth.
But a bright light now stood in the dripping eyes of the malden.
"I love him too well to believe him;
And she went back out of the mist with a softer light in her eyes, to dwell with he friends and her kindred.
she cried, smiling and weeping together,
"for see! I have loved him so well that I
have forgotten to love my friends and
kindred."
The youth looked after her; and as she went, a lovely gleam of golden light glintened through the mist, and lighted up her face with holy fire. In the shining swath of the light he ran and caught her.
"Let me too," he cried, "go and work among my klsman; for I have sinned!" And as they went along the mist roiled back before them. FRANK MENET.
Attention was called in these column not long since to the growing modesty of the college student. Recently, in our own institution—which we always expect to find in the van of any good movement—there have been unmistakable indications that the University man is growing in grace in another direction.
The urgent demand made on all sides for a chair of oratory shows an unselfishness, a far-sighted regard for the Interests of coming generations, which is hardly recognized, much less appreciated by the casual observer. It might be thought that this demand for training in oratory was brought about by a desire to win glory on the college rostrum, but such a mean estimate of our ambitions does us rank injustice. Anyone who has read the University papers knows that if there is anything more definitely settled than our need of a chair of oratory it is the fact that a good natured public has been made to suffer too long under the immature productions of college orators. We do not wish to be trained to speak so that we can speak at commencement, for instance, for in all well regulated institutions, commencement exercises are conducted by distinguished men from abroad.
Ab, there you have it! We want training in oratory so that in future years when our graduates have become distinguished men, they may deliver the commencement orations of other institutions!
It is rumored that Soderstrom will drop all of his language studies when he sees the Annual.
Prof. Hopkins says that the short stories of this year's Advanced English class are exceptionally good. The three best are those of Miss Bosworth, Mr. Templein and Mr. Mustard.

ROMAN WOMEN
Since the status of woman is now being so eagerly discussed, it will probably not be out of place to consider briefly the legal position of Roman women in the time of Justinian. —A little hindsight sometimes shampens one's foresight.
In the early days of Rome the wife was absolutely under the dominion of her husband. Her legal personality was merged in his. She had no power to acquire or hold property for herself. All her property, at marriage, passed to her husband. The power of the husband was arbitrary and despotic.
In course of time this exceeding strictness brought about a natural reaction. The pendulum swung to the extreme of liberality, such as it never reached before or since. The independence of husband and wife, as far as pertain to their legal rights, was almost absointe. On this point, I quote from W. C. Norey, a late writer on Roman law.
"As to the personal relation between husband and wife, the wife acquired the name, the rank, and the domicile of her husband. Otherwise they were entirely distinct as regards their domestic status. The husband had no power over the wife; and the wife had no claim to support from her husband, unless there been a special contract to that effect.
"With regard to the rights of the married woman to her own property, it may be said in general that they were unaffected by the marriage relation. She retained her previous property, and continued to hold it in her own name, and in full ownership. She had a right to whatever she acquired after marriage; and she had a right to dispose of her own property as she pleased, eather by gift, by sale, or by testament. Marriage in brief gave to the husband no claim to the property of the wife."
D. H. R.
Such was the position of Roman women in the later Roman law. The tendency of modern legislation is towards this Roman freedom, and may, in the distant future, possibly attain it. A careful study of the Roman law on this subject would probably be no detriment to the ordinary Kansas legislator.
Musin.
The Musin Concert Co. will be here May 6th, one week from Saturday night. This company scarcely needs comment, as it is well known to University students. Concerning Musin himself, it may be well to quote from the Chicago Tribune. "Musin has a brilliancy, an airiness, and a glitter, which are his own. He represented everything with his marvelous bowing and fingering as he cares sed the loving front of his living violin, and out from it a mass of music and sounds grew and rose, distinct and clear, now swelling and swaying, again falling like the cadence of summer breathings and dying away into melodious silence. At times you are overcome by his boldness, brilliancy and power, and then he embraces you with his sinking strains till you catch your breath and sigh."
Bowersock's Opera House presents for next Monday evening, "The Fire Patrol," a five act melodrama by James W. Harkins Jr., author of "The Midnight Alarm," which was seen here last season in "The Fire Patrol" are introduced a fire patrol wagon and what is said to be a correct representation of the interior of a gold stamp mill in Deadwood, with the ore crushers in full operation. The play has met with considerable success in New York City, where it was produced for three weeks early in the season. Reserved seats on sale Saturday morning at regular prices.
The plan now pursued in the Freshman botany class is somewhat different from that of preceding years. Instead of allowing each student to analyze flowers selected at random, the specimens are selected by the instructors; thus insuring the bringing out of certain morphological facts which otherwise might have been passed unnoticed.
Kansas University Quarterly.
The last number of Volume 1 of the Kansas University Quarterly will be issued next week. It will contain an article on Penology in Kansas by Professor Blackmar, and on Bibliography of Municipal Government by Professor Hodder. Volume 1, when bound will contain 196 pages of reading matter, 18 full page plates and various cuts in the text. The articles embrace original in investigations, by members of the University, in paleontology, mathematics, philology, sociology, history, chemistry, engineering, botany and entomology. The object of the Quarterly is to encourage original research in the University and to provide means for its publication.
The exchange list of the Quarterly is rapidly becoming a valuable one. Among the exchanges are: The American Geologist; Social Economist; Charities Review; Journal of Analytical and Applied Chemistry; California Illustrated Magazine; Mathematical Magazine of Washington; Journal of the Franklin Institute; American Microscopic Journal; Technology Quarterly; Botanical Gazette; Weekly Review, Pysche and other technical publications
In addition to these, there are received regularly the bulletins of numerous scientific societies, some of which are the Engineers' Club of Philadelphia; Mis ourl Botanical Gardens, St. Louis; Boston Society of Natural History; Cincinnati Society of Natural History; Wisconsin, Minnesota and Nebraska Academies of Sciences; American Museum of Natural History; Pittsburgh Academy of Science; Harvard Museum of Comparative Zoology; Natural History Society of Glasgow, and several other foreign ones. These various publications and bulletins are placed in the University library.
It is expected that in a few years the value of the exchanges received will equal the cost of publishing the Quarterly and thus the University will have a self-sustaining, high grade periodical in which professors and students can make public the results of their investigations. As the Quarterly is placed in the libraries of the foremost educational institutions in America, and in many in Canada and Europe, the University is given a standing among other Universities, which could be obtained in no other way.

From a remark that was made by a Baker student on the ball grounds. Saturday, we would believe that the nine which pretended to play ball here was not the one with which we will have to play in the league game; that this team was sent up here to inspire our nine with the belief that they would have an easy time on May 22d. We have the material here for a winning nine (if it is only developed)
The Women's League.
National Tailors
The annual meeting of the Women's League of the University was held Saturday, April 15. The secretary's report showed progress in the work of the League during the year. During the first days of the fall term some of the members of the League were at the University ready to welcome and assist young women who came as strangers, introducing them to the officers of the University whom they needed to see, and showing a friendly interest in their welfare. Three receptions were given during the year, all of which were well attended. At these receptions short talks were given by Dr. Cunningham on Hygiene, by Miss Galloon on FrenchSchool Life, and by Mr. B. W. Woodward on cultivating a taste for art. For this last reception Mr. and Mrs. Woodward kindly opened their home and gallery, and the talk was given in the art gallery.
The officers chosen for the ensuing year were president, Mrs. Snow; vice president, Mrs. Wilcox; secretary, Mrs. Hopkins; treasurer, Mrs. Dyche; advisory committee, Miss Oliver, Miss Galloo, two representatives to be chosen from the senior class, two from the junior class, and two from the school of music, Mrs Sayre, Mrs. Hopkins, Mrs. Green and Mrs. Dunlap were asked to take special charge of the sick, and they request students to report cases of sickness
C. E. Hite, formerly with Professor Dyche, but now studying medicine in the University of Pennsylvania, is going across the continent this summer on a lecturing tour. He will lecture on Greenland, and will illustrate his lectures with stereoptic views. He obtained these views himself while on the Peary relief expedition.

THE COLLEGE WORLD.
ELINORE.
Bil, become, gay and over free,
Always slitting merrily,
White she is my love beguiling,
Cruel with her constant smiling,
Still as dear as dear can be
Is my Elinore to me.
In his mind,
Sweet and charming, yet so gay
That whenever I would say
How I churlish, how I love her,
With her hands and lips she'll cover,
Yet no emotion in play
Makes me walk some other way.
Like a sheer she's ever cooling,
Wilt out its eliza to my wool,
Barely can love her bet or
Andxious all the more to get her,
(And she hints that my sneeung
 isn't a wanted doing.)
In the University of Wisconsin, if a student is absent more than twelve times he is required to take an extra examination.
The University of Michigan offers a six year's course, which, when completed, gives degrees in both science and medicine.
The largest class ever graduated from an American institution was that of the University of Michigan last year, which numbered 998.
No student of Ohio State University can be in the athletic team if he has failed or been conditioned in more than five hours work.
At Boston University the faculty have voted to permit work on the college papers to count an hour's work in the course, allowing seven hours work a week to the managing editor, and two hours to each of his assistants. The thousands of toil-worn, care-laden collegiate editors would rise up and call their faculties blessed, were they all to take such philanthropic action—Holton Informer.

Prof. Steyens has just received a lot of grasses and fungi from Prof. Seymour of Harvard. They are in exchange for some specimens sent to Harvard by Prof. Steyens some time ago. The grasses are largely those of value for grazing purposes, and are authentically named by comparison with specimen in the Gray Herbarium. Each specimen is accompanied by references to literature concerning it. The fungi, two hundred in number, are those which grow on fruit trees.
The Smithsonian Institution is offering a $10,000 prize for an important discovery concerning atmospheric air, a $2,000 prize for the best scientific essay upon atmospheric air and a $1,000 prize for the best popular treatise upon the same subject. These prizes were given to the Smithsonian Institute by Mr. Geo. Hodgkin, who is desirous of increasing the world's knowledge of the air.

K. U. vs. Baker.
In the exhibition ball game, Saturday, between K. U. and Baker, the former won easily by a score of 17 to 4. It was entirely too much one-sided to be interesting, and the shivering spectators in the grand stand wished they were home.
The K. U. band made its first appearance before the nubic and played many selections during the game. The music was well received. Game was called about 3:20, with Baker at the bat, and Prof. Stewart, of Baker University, as empire.
The Baker men understood their business, and played carelessly, and without team work. In fact they played so that it was clearly perceived that they were willing to sacrifice an exhibition game in order that thereby they might win the league game, which takes place here May 22nd.
May 22nd.
Becks, Dudgeon and Sutton did the best playing for Baker. Dudgeon and Crooks are especially weak, or (as is most probable) feigned it. In batting the whole nine was weak. They made three scores in the first inning and were shut out up to the ninth when they sigged another on an error. f Phillips, who dropped the ball.
K. U. played a fairly good game. Kelscy and Phillips are undoubtedly the best battery K. U. ever had. Phillips, however, was somewhat wild, giving too many bases on balls. Bedell held first to pefection, but was very weak at the bat. Crawford put up a poor game as short stop. A new one is needed. Williamson and Hickey were slow at running bases. Sherman had bad luck in batting flies. On the whole the team work was fairly good and if our nine keeps on improving we may hope to win the pennant. Prof. Stewart's decisions were satisfactory.
The players and their positions were as follows;

THE DICTIONARY HOLDER
Did you ever learn what fabulous results grew out for the manufacture by bodies of an ornamental man to hold the dictionary. The story recalls a fable, but to tell it one must ask another question: Have you ever noticed the advertisement of the Aerocorp company, which stands out as follows:
45 sold in '88
2,288 sold in '89
6,268 sold in '90
20,049 sold in '91
60,000 will be sold in '92
A Steel Hairpin and Steel Wire every 3 minutes. These figures tell the story of the early period of everluring Aerocorp. Where one goes can follow and one takes the Country.
Well, that establishment belongs to La Terra W. Noyes, and the man up until it is the third largest user of Steel in the West. Of the great Harvest companies, was the Dictionary Holder business. This brings up to you the fact that it took and held still hold on how it increased rapidly year by year.
Of that success is this: Mr. Noyes has made many important articles, and has maintained a high attack on each article at a low price. The merit of these Dictionary Holder articles thereby literally sold themselves, and in such great势头, each one has made the reputation they have gone to almost every habitable place of the globe.

A Steel Windmill and Steel Aeromotor Company, which is situated near the Aeromotor Company, will occupy 3 minutes. These figures tell the story of the over-growing industry, everlasting Steel Aeromotor. Where one does others around Take the Country.
Well, that establishment belongs to La Verne W. Reyes, and the company until it is the third largest user steel in the country. Two of the great Harvest companies was beset by the Company Holder business. This brings up an inquiry as to how it took place and held still and still from year to year. The secret of that success is that Reyes, a meritorious article, and has maintained an unappelled article at a low price. Holders of this article are held by Holder. Holder itself made themselves and in such greatness that they literally sold themselves, and in such greatness that they have gone to almost every corner and even enveloped each one has made the sea, and are kept by all beholders.
