The Santa Fe route is the best friend Lawrence and the University has on earth. Why does the Santa Fe carry most of the passenger business in and out of Lawrence? Because it has eighteen daily passenger trains and gives the best satisfaction to the traveling public. K.

Peabody and Galen Nichols visited the Historic City last week. It is said that Ots Halbert Holmes is engaged. Ye Gods and little fishes! Games of bass ball are scheduled for every Saturday until commencement. Prof. Wilcox lectures in Hisper to-morrow evening on "A Trip to Greece." T. J. Fulton's father died at Marys- villain h, week of cerebral hamorrhage. In the May-pole contest, Christopher wanted to pair off with George Thompson. Olinger and Blackman are at work decorating the Kansas portion of Agricultural Hall. Ralph Elmorz left school last week to accept a position with a large dry-goods firm in Chicago. The long expected, much discussed seniors, annual put in its appearance last Thursday morning. At the pharmaceutical society last Friday afternoon, Prof. Franklin gaye an illustrated lecture on glass blowing. J. H. Sawtell '92 has closed a successful term of school at Hartford and is now taking graduate work in the University. Dr. Williston went to Chicago Thursday, to superintend the arrangements of the Kansas geological exhibit at the World's Fair. The professors are wondering at the great decrease in attendance in the Freshman classes since the merry go-round has come to town. Music by Buch's string quartette, also a cornet solo by Olin Bell will be features of the entertainment Friday evening at the M. E. church. An engineering student was very certain a few days ago that he could prove experimentally that the shortest distance between two points is a curve. The Department of Pharmacy has just received some valuable chemicals for the use of the seniors in prepailing their graduation theses. Colchicin, one of the chemicals received, costs about twenty dollars an ounce. Tucker is preparing twenty five photographs of objects showing the effect of various poisons. These are for Prof Bailey's class in Toxicology and at the close of the term each member of the class will be given a set of these pictures to pres-reve for reference. While in Chicago Dr. Williston met H. C. Riggs who is stationed as guard in the woman's building. This speaks well for Riggs, as the management placed in this building only those who would be popular with the ladies. The copy for the pharmacy catalogue has nearly all been sent to the publisher, and the catalogue will be out as soon as it can be printed. In addition to the usual information, the catalogue will contain the address and occupation of every graduate of the Department. Dr. Graham Taylor, Professor of Sociology in the Chicago Theological Seminary will deliver an address before the Christian associations of the University next Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock in the Congregational church. Dr. Taylor is a young man, a graduate of Yale, a pleasant speaker and one much interested in college students. The University Band will play at the ball game Saturday. Chancellor Snow lectures in Gaylord tomorrow evening. Prof. Blise will begin his experiments on the Kaw river next week. Chancellor Snow will give a reception in Snow Hall to all of the Seniors in the University May 19th. Chancellor Snow often receives letters addressed to Chancellor Snow, The Chinch Bug Man. Practice for Field Day. The senior collegiate were delightfully entertained last Thursday evening by Prof. and Mrs. Wilcox. The University student who interfeared in the High School May-pole contest, showed very poor judgment. Baker has had three men for each event in the Field Day contests practicing daily for the past six weeks. The class in Scientific German has just read a monograph on Bacteria. It will take up one on the electric machine next Monday. Ex. Governor Chas. Robinson will address the Historical Seminary tomorrow afternoon at 5 o'clock on Early Times in California. Adacy and Williamson distinguished themselves on May day. They are perhaps the best "all around scrappers" in the University. J. M. Aldrich is preparing for publication a paper on the Dolcipidae, a family of flies Twenty-nine illustrations will accompany the paper. Last Tuesday Chancellor Snow lectured to the one hundred and fifteen Seniors of the Kansas City High School on the University of Kansas. Chancellor Snow lectured in Lincoln, Kansas, last Friday evening. While on his way home an Irishman told him that he was more popular than De. Tanner, There are lilacs in abundance on Mt. Oread, although down in the city there are none This clearly shows the effect of frost on plant life in valleys and on hills. Chancellor Snow and Dr. Williston have been appointed by the city on a board of arbitration to settle the difficulty between the city and the Water Company. Frank Menet will leave for Chicago in about a week. He will probably remain until the close of the Fair, assisting his uncle in displaying the latter's remarkable fishing apparatus. The University people can scarcely turn around without being imitated by the students of the Lawrence High School. We had a May-pole contest on Monday morning; they had one in the afternoon. Wm. Hill, '89, has accepted a position in the Chicago University as instructor in political science. He was intending to spend the next two or three years in Europe, having been awarded a traveling fellowship by Harvard; but the offer of Chicago University was too attractive to refuse. The exhibit of salt and stone sent from the University to the world's fair, surpasses anything in its line on the grounds so far, and stands a good show of receiving one of the prizes offered. The Junior electrical engineering students made tests on the engine and dynamo last week in order to determine the amount of steam it takes to run the University electric lights. They found that it took one horse power to run ten incan descent lights and six-tenths of a horse power for an arc light. THE MAX-POLE CONTEST. The Seniors and Sophomores Generally Victorious. Last Sunday night the University campus was covered with skulking forms—Juniors and Freshmen bent on raising a May-pole. They skulked about all night, but for various reasons the campus was not graced by Junior and Frishman flags. In order, however, not to consider their night's prowling in vain, they placed a gummy sack on a telegraph pole. This was soon taken down by Senior Laws. Between six and seven o'clock Monday morning, the Juniors and Freshmen began to think that activity without result was in vain, so they raised their colors on the flag staff of the main building. The flag remained aloft only a few moments, when they were taken down by University authorities. The Juniors and Freshmen now decided to raise a genuine May-pole. A hole had been dug behind Snow Hall, and an iron pole prepared during the night, so they proceeded thither burdened with the renown they had already won. When they arrived there they found that their iron pole had been broken by the seniors and sophomores; but, not discouraged, they raised the broken pole, failing however to decorate it with their flags. The pole was soon abandoned and then lastly pulled down by the Seniors and Sophomores. Now, the final struggle began. The Juniors and Freshmen had placed their colors on an electric light pole by the main entrance to the University campus, and defied all opposition. For sometime their flags floated proudly in the breeze. When all was seemingly quiet and the Juniors and Freshmen were least expecting an attack, the flag pole and flags suddenly came down. The Seniors and Sophomores had cut the electric wires running to the neighboring poles seized the wires, and pulled the pole down before organized opposition could be made. A struggle was made for the flags, in which the Juniors and Freshmen were in the main victorious. They retained all of the Junior flag, with the exception of a small strip, and about three fourths of the Freshman flag. There were some minor struggles later, but they were of little importance. The contest ended with no one hurt, with a great increase of class spirit, and a general good feeling on both sides. Something Unique. The class of '94 has sometimes been thought to be of mean talents and little originality. But such thought must now be dismissed forever. It is acknowledged on all hands that, while they were worsted in the May-pole contest, the Juniors proved their title to genius by their excellent work in decorating the grand stand on McCook Field. The enormous '94 which loomed up before astonished students and professors when they arrived on the hill was decidedly the most unique feature of the day. Although the average temperature of April was about the same it has been for years, it does not follow, as the Lawrence Journal thinks, that April was not a colder month than usual. The first week of April was very warm. In fact the hottest April day in twenty-five years occurred at that time. But the balance of the month was much colder than usual and made the monthly average about the same as it had been for preceding Aprils. The Oratorical Contest. Notwithstanding the bad weather and the number of other attractions in the city, a fair sized audience greeted the aspirants for oratorical honors last Friday night. And certainly those who were there were not disappointed. The Spring Contest was not, indeed, what it should have been. It was not near so good as that of last year; but all of the orations were creditable to the speakers themselves and to the University. Mr. Fullerton has never before been an aspirant for oratorial honors, yet his oration on Robert Burns, both in composition and delivery made a much nearer approach to the true ideal of an oration than has frequently been made by more experienced speakers. He was not altogether at home upon the platform, but he was thoroughly at home in his subject. He shewed, moreover, a depth of feeling; a power of so ordering and uttering his words that they would affect the hearer by their own power without reference to the thought behind them, which unfortunately seems to be "going out" of college aratory. It was very much of a surprise to many when it was announced that Mr. Gillespie had entered the contest. It was a considerable indication of his pluck that he should venture, without experience as a speaker or as a writer, to enter the lists against one of the most experienced writers and one of the most experienced speakers of the University. His oration on the Power of the Past was very creditable to him, and, if he can overcome a slight impediment in his speech, he may some time make a good showing in the regular local contest. The well known force and earnestness of Mr. Orr as a speaker caused a general expectation that he would be the winner of the contest, and he was greeted with enthusiasm as he came forward. These expectations were not disappointed. He delivered his oration on the Growth of the Brotherhood of Man with a force and earnestness which carried conviction to his hearers. The markings of the judges were as follows: THOUGHT AND COMPOSITION. THOUGHT AND COMPOSITION. Fullerton 85 75 69 Tennilin 85 75 69 Cawdield 85 75 69 Woodward 89 88 87 DELIVERY. Blackmar 2 1 3 Howland 2 1 3 Milton 2 1 3 Blackmar 2 1 3 Base Ball. Next Saturday the University base ball team will cross bats with the McCooks of Fort Leavenworth. The McCooks are regarded one of the strongest amateur base ball nines in the State of Kansas. Their pitcher and catcher were in the Southern League last year, but having joined the army and being stationed at Fort Leavenworth, they are now playing with the McCooks. The following is the arrangement of the two teams: K. U. Mc COOKS Kelsey . Catcher . Fieldcamp Gear . Pitcher . Higenbotham Bedell . First base . Bennett Alden . Second base . Hunter Williamson . Third base . Young Crawford . Shortstop . Myers Sherman . Left field . Dyer Hicke / Center fie d . Lawrence Chambroliair . Right field . Flanery Phillips has withdrawn from the University. In the Field Day contests, the winners of the first and second prizes will be awarded medals, and the winner of the third prize, a ribbon. A first prize will count five points, a second three, and a third, one. The Students Journal BY THE Students Journal Publishing Company Wm. J. KREIBIEL ... Editor-in-Chief W W. RENO ...

A CONNOISSEUR has said that in all beauty there is an idea; so that a countenance to be handsome must in some way at sight quicken a sentiment or stir a memory in the beholder. THE Regents and Faculty are doing all they can to place our school among the foremost Universities of the land, and to keep her there. What are the students doing to aid them? In the inter-collegiate chess tournament this spring, between Columbia, Haryard, Yale, and Princeton, the first place was won by Columbia, and second, by Harvard. A chess tournament would make a good addition to our list of inter-collegiate mental athletic contests. Tinouch his generosity to the faculty ladies in suppressing their ages, the "Quivira" chronicler very unjustly omitted to give one of the old men of the faculty credit for his two score and ten. This was probably not due to getting the aforesaid professor wrongly classified. ___ The publishers of "Quvira" should keep careful guard over their portraits of professors and college editors for fear that some patent medicine house will appropriate them to run at the head of its literary productions; or that the daily papers will use them in the emergency of a sudden death of some prominent politician. They are new to the public. This week Chicago witnessed the formal opening of the grandest and most instructive university in the world. Its summer session will last but six months; but it admits students of all classes and conditions, and in lieu of a diploma gives its graduates what cannot be contained within a dozen "sheep-skins"—positive, seeing, knowledge. Attendance at this University should not be viewed by KU students merely as an opportunity for the gratification of curiosity, but as a supplement to, and a practical realization of our own curriculum THE "figger-flend" has been at work with the faculty biographies and has given in his results, viz: The entire faculty represents an accumulation of over one thousand years, when put end to end. The oldest member is sixty-three, the youngest is twenty-six, and the average is thirty-eight years. Twelve are sinle, and, excluding the ladies, their ages lie between twenty five and thirty-eight years. Of the five professors thirty-four years old, only two were born in the same month of the year, and as far apart in that month as was possible. Five were born in the month of May, four each in March, June, July, September and December. None were born in January, February, or October, so if you ever aspire to teach the young idea to shoot be careful that you are born in one of the lucky months, better in the month of roses. A dozen have studied in European universities and six hold degrees from K. U. only. THE "QUIVIRA." Last Thursday at the noon intermission there went out from the University, radiating to all parts of the city, an artistic and educational influence, of which the Class of '03 may well be the proud parent. At that time its Annual, the "Quivira," was being proudly carried away by hundreds of students to be examined during the dinner hour with many ejaculations of pleasure and surprise. To say that this Annual is far superior to anything of the kind which has heretofore been issued from the University, is to tell but little of the quality of its contents, and of its appearance. On the first cover page the romantic word "Quivira," in large gold letters stands out against the dark blue tinge of the cloth coyer. Thus, before the buyer opens his newly received treasure, his mind filled with Spanish romance, intermingled with scenes of early Kansas history, he is reminded that the first loyalty of the new book is to the state. The second place inside is given to a picture of her best educational institution—the University. The book is large, well edited, well written, of a dignified tone throughout, and its contents so thoroughly and fairly cover all features of the University and its life, that it is but another indication of the high standard of education and ability of the Class of '93—the largest ever graduated from the University. Besides the wholesome amount of valuable information concerning the University and its workers, the book devotes considerable space to the events of the students' lighter moments. But the "Quivira" ranks far above the usual publications of its class, in that it is not a collation only of the lighter side of student life. Its preponderance of more solid material shows that a higher aim was had in its conception; and it will become a source of valuable information, as well as of profitable advertising for the University. The biographies of the corps of instructors are noteworthy for their briefness, completeness and excellence in stating what is interesting of each person. All portraits, interior and exterior scenes of the various buildings, and pictures of the National History Museum, are half-tone reproductions of photographs. The other illustrations are excellent pen and ink pictures, and are nearly all made by George E. Little of this city. The printing and binding by Hall & O'Donald of Topeka, is of superior quality, with the exception of the photographic reproductions. These latter, although well made, are not well printed. The publishing house has shown excellent taste in its composition and arrangement of the printed matter. All in all, the book is one which will be a credit to the class, the school, the town, and will be of much worth in disseminating knowledge of our alma mater, and in placing her in the front ranks of education in the new world. The management spent much time, and made every effort to make this Annual a success, and to their endeavors is due this splendid product of art, literature and industry. It should find a place on the shelf of every student and friend of the University. If you have not already done so, procure a copy for yourself. You will be repaid. The worldly man of business is ever and anon crying that the college-bred man is impractical; and often he has just cause for this criticism. But it would not seem that in public places the college-bred man is far behind others, when we remember that although college men form but a fraction of one per cent of the voters in the United States they hold fifty-eight per cent of the best public offices. The trained thinker, the strong and liberal man, is always in demand. THE student who has been worrying about the disposition of his old clothes has found a happy solution in the May day exercises and now with easy mini strolls into the shops for fresh purchases OUR STUDY WINDOW. [From the Icelandic.] THE SHEPHERD POET SITTING ON THE ✓ There dwelt a man at Thingvelbe caller Thorkell. He was a rich man in live stock and always had it comfortable in his house; he was not a man of rank. His shepherd was named Halljoern, but was called Hail. He would often come to the howe or grave-mound of Thorelfe [a poet] and sleep there of nights and keep his cattle near at hand; it always came to his mind that he would like to compose some song of praise about the howe-dwier, and he was always talking about that as he lay on the howe. But because he was not a poet and had not received the art, he did not get it composed, and he never got along any further with the poem than this: "Here lies a poet." But more he did not get composed. One night as usual he was trying on the howe and was engaged in his usual occupation of trying to increase somewhat the poem about the howe-dweller. After a while, he slept, and then he saw that the howe opened up, and there went out of it a man large of stature and well built. He came up the howe to Hallbjoern and said: "There you lie, Hallbjoern, and will persist in trying to do that which you have no gift for, that is, to compose a song of praise concerning me. And either it shall happen that this art shall be given to you, and that you shall receive from me much more than from most other men—and it is quite likely that it shall so be—or else you need not bother yourself about this any longer. I shall now say a stanza for you, and if you get the stanza learned and know it when you awake, then will you become a great poet." Then he took and pulled his tongue for him and repeated this: "Here lies the诗 that of all poets was the greatest paragon." Now you shall begin the poem thus and compose a song in praise of me, when you awake; you must make it as elaborate as possible, both in meter and diction, and above all in the figures of speech." Then he turned again into the howe and it closed after him; and Hallbjoern awoke and thought he saw the howe-dweller's shoulders disappearing in the howe. Afterward he remembered the line and went home to the settlement with his cattle after a time and related the occurrence. Halbjoern afterwards composed a song in praise of the howe-dweller, and became a very great poet and soon went abroad and made poems about many chiefs, and received from them many honors and good gifts and thereby made much money. And there went about concerning him a great saga both here and abroad, though it has not here been written down. E.E.S. EPHRAIM DOD'S DISH RAG. It is not a very usual thing for a man to own a dis-brag, except in his wife's name, but no teminine hand ever washed the dish-rug of Ephraim Dod, and this statement is only a foreshadowing of his way of life. He was the sole occupant of a dingy, two-roomed house set close beside a dusty country road, although there were thirty acres of land behind it. He wanted to be where he could exchange a word with his neighbors now and then, he said, and because he was most always in the kitchen, he chose to use the front part of the house for work which is generally carried on in the rear. It did not disconcert Eph Dod in the least to have a passer by stop and stare at his domestic arrangements, and perhaps make a joke or two at his awkwardness. It gave things a sort of a homelike feeling, he said. The community repaid him by taking a great interest in his peculiarities. Eph's "favorit" eatin "' was pumpkin pic. He had once remarked that if he were thrown into a pumpkin pie as big as Lake Erie, he could eat his way out without any difficulty. Cosequently the cornfield back of the house was adorned with pumpkin vines, and as early as the first yellow beauty was ready One fine fall day Farmer Caldwell, driving along the dusty road, saw Eph's pigs eating pumpkin rind. He smiled as he slowed up his horses before Eph's open door. Smoke was pouring from the stove pipe chimney. Evidently Eph had a baking fire. The dishes—he seemed to have used every dish in the house—were piled up on the table, and a pin of hot water stood beside them. for use, pumpkin pe season at Eph's set in to stay. "Howdy, Eph," said his caller, slapping the off horse with the rein and looking into the distance. "Howdy, Colonel, Howdy!" "Pumpkin pie time?" asked the colonel, bringing a pair of twinkling eyes to bear on Eph's movements. "Pears like it is" said Eph, making a great clatter among the dishes. "Pears like you're makin' a good deal of noise, too, don't it?" "M' dish-rag 'sit out," Eph explained. Caldwell chuckled. "I'll ask Miss' Caldwell to lend you hers till yours gets back," and he chuckled again as he drove on. Eph sat down and fanned the fire with his dust pan—he never used that article for any other purpose—as was his custom when his culinary course of action was dubious. There were rags enough in his wardrobe, but there wasn't one of them superfluous, so to speak. Finally he got up and washed the dishes with his hands, turning them down on the table to dry. Such an effeminate luxury as a dish towel he had never possessed. By the time the dishes were washed the pies were baked, and as Eph surveyed them, set on the window-sill to cool, his pride rose and his mouth watered. To him disl-'rags were as naught. A few days later Farmer Caldwell again drew up in passing Eph's door, Strange to say Eph did not see him. In response to his name, however, he came and stood slouching in the doorway. It did not take long to bring the conversation round to pies, and then— "Dish-rag turned up?" inquired the farmer. "Yes," said Eph, shortly. "Twan hurt none," said Eph, trying to defend himself before hand. "Twas in one o' the pies." Dr. Williston returned from Chicago Tuesday afternoon. He says that Prof. Dyche's exhibit will be one of the interesting features of the fair. It is placed in an annex to the Kansas building, and is arranged in a quadrant of a sphere in such a way that the observer seems to look away over mountains in the distance. The trees and shrubbery are perfect imitations. Glen Miller, '86, who is now in a flourishing business in Salt Lake City, was in Lawrence last week. WAUKENHOSE! The Best Sock Made.

The Editor of the Review, in the April number, calls attention to my article in a recent issue of the STUDENTS JOURNAL, and ridicates the supposition that the contributors of the Review are subject to the ordinary laws of human nature. He expresses a "morbid curiosity" to know more of the history of a genius so remarkable as to entertain such a supposition. I am very far from desiring to allow any light which I may have, to "blind itself out in the murky mists of oblivion." I had supposed, indeed, that the bushel under which it was hidden was of sufficient transparency for so decerning and appreciative a person as his article shows the Editor to be, to see the light distinctly. But as I seem to have been mistaken in this, it may be well to lift the bushel entirely, and satisfy the "morbid curiosity" of the Editor by throwing a flash light upon the workings of the Review company. The Editor says that "if a student is not interested enough in the Review to contribute one dollar a year to its support, whether it be contrary to the laws of human nature or not, he does not deserve a voice in the selection of its officers." It might be well to call attention, in passing, to the fact that just two lines above the passage here quoted, it is stated that the paid-up subscriber "is entitled to a vote in the selection of the editor for the ensuing year." Of course the editor of the Review would have said, "a voice in the selection of its editor-in-chief," but for the fact that the sentence is rounded off much better by the substitution of the word "officers." But what strikes the mind with the most peculiar force on hearing this statement is the fact, that while the editor is declaring that no one should have a voice in the selection of the Review officers who is not willing to contribute one dollar a year to its support, those who really do have a voice in the selection of all of its officers do not contribute to it more than the interest on the price of the shares, namely two cents and a half, for which sum they are amply repaid by receiving the Review free of charge. Evidently the words of the Editor can be taken to mean nothing else than that the stock holders of the company do not deserve a voice in the se- But the fact, that the management of the Review is wholly in the hands of one class of students, might be passed over in silence, were it not for the disreputable methods which are used in order to keep the management in those hands. The students who organized the Review company recognized the danger of allowing one or two factions to gain complete control over the paper, and they therefore placed a clause in the constitution, saying that no fraternity, or members of a fraternity, should hold more than so many shares. The intention of this provision was well enough, but unfortunately, in the course of time, several fraternities secured "control" of some shares besides the full number to which they had a constitutional right, and at the present time some of the fraternities "control" two or three times as many shares as they can constitutionally own. The method by which this business is managed is something like this: A new student is approached and told that, if he would like to have a Review share, one can be got for him, which will not cost him a cent, and that he will receive the Review free of charge. Mr. Freshman probably signifies his desire to have one. He hears nothing more about it, however, until the time for the yearly election approaches when the same student who spoke to him before, asks him if such and such students are all right for the officers of the next year. He expresses his approval of the slate, and when his name is called at the meeting, he votes for those students. If he assents to the slate the next year, the same process is repeated, but if he objects to voting for any of the students who are "running." he is much surprised on the day of the election to find some new student's name read in place of his own. The share has been transferred in the meantime. Very often the plan pursued is not so ingenious as this. Some students are found who are willing to compromise themselves knowingly in this way for the sake of receiving the Review free of charge. It is not necessary, I hope, to speak further of this matter. This condition of affairs is well known, to the older students at least, and the knowledge of it ought to be sufficient to deter any honorable student from taking part in the management of the Review, except with a view to reform. C. S. GRIFFIN. Language Conference. At the meeting of the Language conference las Thursday, Dr. Wilcox read a paper on, "Some Biblical Parallels to Homes." He read about forty passages from Homer, showing as many different ideas, customs, and modes of expression; and then for each of these passages he gave from one to four parallel passages from various books of the Bible. These parallels form a most interesting study, but there is no evidence, that these two nations knew anything of each other at this time. The only conclusion, therefore, that can be drawn from those remarkable parallels, is that there must have been great similarity in the social and intellectual conditions of the two countries at the time their respective master-pieces were written. The two nations were apparently at about the same stage of civilization, having about the same ideas regarding death, the future life and many other things of common interest to mankind Professor Carruth then spoke briefly of M. Gouin's lightening method of teaching languages. After spending nearly a year memorizing grammars and dictionaries without being yet able to speak the German language, M. Gouin was surprised to find that his little three-year-old boy had learned the French language perfectly in that time. So he concluded that the way to learn any language is to go about it as a little child does. This he at once did, with truly wonderful results. The so-called new method of M. Gouin is little more than the formerly much talked about "natural" method which is used more or less by all successful teachers of language. The essence of this method that a language must be heard in order to be learned. The one possibly new idea which M. Gouin's method contains is the temporal as well as logical as association of the sentences to be learned. The sentences taught should follow each other naturally in time as well as in thought. Some diseased chickens bugs were sent out Monday. This is three weeks earlier than success has herefore been attained in the spreading of the disease.

This collection is considered a most valuable one, being purchased by Mrs. G, R. Williams and presented to Cornell as a memorial to Judge Boardman. The faculty at Princeton has refused to allow the Dramatic Association to perform in any of the larger cities, on account of the inferior grade of performances given by the association in the past few years.

In a contest of Scotchmen last Friday night, Robert Burns, strange to say, did not secure the highest honors. The "who is it?" in the Quivira about the man who loves his class even more than his lass was written after viewing a composite photograph of the class of '93 The silence which is maintained by the decorators of the grand stand is perfectly in keeping with the proverbial modesty of the class of 34. The article on "Clubs" in the Quivira says that in them the "policy has always been adhered to of making the training of the head of more importance than the training of the—toes." In the list of clubs immediately following is the Independent Dince Committee. The Committee will sue for damages. A prominent Junior recently sent to Colchester, Roberts & Co., of Tiflin, O.. "Writers of Literary Productions of Every Description," to inquire the price of a fifteen hundred word oration. The reply was that they would write one for $7.50, "and guarantee it satisfactory." They also said, "send us one of your old orations that we may copy your style as nearly as possible, thereby making your production natural." The oration was belated, otherwise there might have been another entry in the Spring Contest. LEGAL BRIEFS. Prof. Brownell gave the Juntors a quiz in Balmells last Tuesday. There were some Senior laws who did not sleep any from Saturday night till Monday morning, when some obliging Juniors put them to sleep. Under the tender tutelage of Jimmy, the janitor, the law campus promises to become a bad of flowers. The Shakeupspace Club is at present without a president. The Junior are undergoing Mechehm on Agency. The law campus was the scene of a lively tussle Monday morning. Upon the breast of every Junior shone the black and gold. And this had much the same effect upon a Senior, as bass a K. M. barrener upon an infuriated boyne, or a student from Baker. The scene was one of indescribable confusion. The line of battle surged back and forth. Every once in a while some agile Junior would break from the ranks and be pursued by some plethoric, flesh-buried Senior. While fleeing in another direction some slim, cadauerous, attenuated specimen of the class of '03 might be seen striving to elude the grasp of the sturdy ninety-fours. But alas for the Juniors, Humphrey and Or were captured and placed in durance vile, while around the slender wrist of Pliny Theophilus Harmon was placed a pair of handcuffs which some wily Senior had brought for the occasion. But, all in all, the Juniors were mostly successful and when at eye the sun was setting in a flood of gold behind a black horizon. every loyal Junior's breast threw back the colors of departing day. Lewis Morrison. The winter season of '92-93 will close next Wednesday, May 10th, with Lewis Morrison in "Faust." Mr. Morrison is an eminent actor, and his interpretation of the greatest of dramas, Goethe's "Faust," and especially his own "Mephisto," while novel, is an ideal one. Every German student in Lawrence and the neighborhood should see his rendition of the play, and few lovers of amusement will miss it. B. J. Casmire a student of the University about twelve years ago has control of a patent ice cream machine, which makes ice cream instantaneously. The principle of the machine consists in spreading the cream over as large a cold surface as possible. You can put in the cream at one end and turn it out ice cream at the other. He expects to have 500 of these machines in use at the World's Fair He will return to Lawrence in the near future to educate his children. THE PROGRAM Of the State Sunday School Convention to be Held Here Next Week. Delegates will begin arriving for the State Sunday School convention on Monday of next week.

Mr. Moore's is an oral command to hold the dictionary! The story reads like a fail, but to tell it one must read the dictionary. If the author wants the dictionary of the Averroes Company, which starts 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 Arsenal Wingwall and Steel Tower every 3 minutes. 67 These huge structures grow ever so slowly, everlasting. Stone Armor complex where others follow, and we "like the country." 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 Windmill and Steel Mill once sources the tell story of an over-producing Steel Mormon. Where one good others follow and take the Country. Well, that establishment belongs to La Verne W. Noyes, and the mill up until it is in the largest user of it in the world, and one of the great Harvest companies on the Coast of New Jersey Holder business firm brings the luxury as in how it took care and hold and prepared and rapidly from year to year. The secret of that success is perfect artiste and meritorious articles and a machine for the excavation and supplied the article at a low price. In the midst of these Hardies Presidency the hardie profit from each one has made the difference. They have gone to suck every mile of metal and have been sent to the remote islands of the sea, and are kept by all beneficiaries. Well, that establishment belonged to k'ermes W. Novak, the architect who built up until it was the third largest museum in the town, only exceeded by two of the great Haven he founded by the Dictionary Holder, and the builder, suggests inquiry at his works and held a position in the field of archaeology from year to year. The secret Mr. Novak has made is most perfect, artistic and moritious articles, and he has been able to excelence and supplied the article at a low price. Holder's dedication has been so great that they literally shed themselves, and about them grew ties that a small profile on each one has made in the world; he is probably even given to almost every place, given to the remote islands of the sea, and are kept by all sheer hearts.

Buckwalter & Co., Proprietors. Invitations to the Senior reception have been sent out. Invitations were issued to one hundred and seventy-five persons, including the members of the Faculty and their wives. Mr. E. W. Walter, of Pueblo, has presented Professor Bailey with a blanket made from the bark of the rubber tree. Mr. Walter obtained this blanket in the United States of Columbia, South America, while making mineralogical collections there. When he was off on an exploring expedition in the mountains, he secured it from the Indians who inhabit the lonely mountains in the interior of the country. To prepare these blankets, the Indians strip the bark off of the rubber tree, put it in water and pound it with stones until it is soft and pliable. After drying, the bark comes forth as serviceable blanket somewhat similar to the manufactured article. Are you practicing for Field Day? Andrew and Dean Foster have gone home. McCook field is a very popular place at present. The friends of the Grade IV. students were on the hill Thursday. Burton, Williams, Brown, and Rice of Baker were on the hill Monday. Miss M. E. Cook, of Leavenworth, was the guest of Miss Edith Haskell last week. Prof. Haworth was here a short time last week, but returned again to Chicago. The Wasburn students, although saving nothing, are practicing regularly for Field Day. What can surpass the misery of a man who is expected to laugh at a joke he has heard before? Frog catching is a part of the course in Toxicology. Last week the class were out in full force catching frogs. The High School of Peru, Indiana, has made application to the University asking to be recorded as an accredited High School. The tennis association on Adams street has taken in new members and will make a new court just above the old ones. Prof. Sayre has been experimenting with frogs in order to determine the effect of loco on their heart and respiratory organs. Some time ago the Lee Street Boarding club challenged any other boarding club in the University to a game of base ball. The challenge has not as yet been accepted. In Ginn & Company's catalogue recently issued, is the announcement of a work by Prof W. H. Carruth entitled A Selection from the Works of Martin Luther. The University Review has been well conducted this year. Under the able management of Albert Fullerton it has become an important factor in University life. At present it has but one serious defect. University students do not contribute enough to its columns. Baker claims to have the winner in the "kick with both feet" in the Field Day contests. There is a man in the University, however, who has privately equalled the best record of the Baker man, yet he is too modest to enter the contest. The Field Day committee should interview him. Dr. W. L. Schenck of Topeka has been chosen to deliver the annual address at the commencement day exercises of the School of Pharmacy. Dr. Schenck has long been interested in educational work, is a member of the State Board of Health and an eloquent speaker. He will no doubt draw a large audience to the pharmacy commencement. Vol.1.

Young woman, when you are surrounded by dashing young men; when the tones of love and the words of complaint float out together; when you are excited by the movement of the whirling waltz, or melted by the tenderness of mellow music, arrest yourself in the rosy atmosphere of delight, gaze unshrinkly into your own heart, and—reflect. About a year ago some chemical goods were sent to the University from Germany. Most of the goods arrived safely but two of the boxes did not come in until last week. They had fallen overboard in the passage across the Atlantic, had floated about for some time, and had finally been picked up by a passing steamer and forwarded to the University. The goods are uninjured, only the packing having been wet. Twelfth Night will be presented in Topeka this evening. The Betaas entertained last Friday night. E. P. Weilman left last Friday for Chicago. The Freshman-Sophomore ball game will be played next Wednesday. A. L. Adams, '86, visited the Uni yer i cly the first of the week. Several of the seniors will take the Master's as well as the Bachelor's degree. J. C. Coyington, a manufacturer of white lead, was at the University Monday. A strong effort is being made to retain Prof. W. H. Johnson in the Lawrence High School. Prof. Bailey was in Hiawatha, last week giving expert evidence in a liquor case. One of the social events of the season the Independent banquet, will occur tomorrow evening. Dr. Taylor, professor of Sociology in the Chicago Theological Seminary,talked in chapel Monday morning. P. C Hinman, chemist in the Columbia College School of Mines, was looking about the University Monday. J. K. Morgan, who attend the University some years ago, has been elected principal of the Hiawatha High School. W. C Fogle stopped on a nail while playing tennis last Friday, and has been going around with crutch and cane ever since. C. T. Southwick had a two column illustrated article on the University library building in the Kansas City Journal last week. Mrs. Strafon and Miss Juliet Titusworth furnished the music last week for the Nortonville high school commencement exercises. The professional base ball nine of Lawrence is undoubtedly a good one. It came within three scores of defeating our University nine. The Triangular League base bale game between Washburn and K. U. will be played at Topeka Saturday. An interesting game is expected. Mr. H. E. Riggs, a graduate of the University in 1886, and now chief engineer of the Toledo, Ann Arbor & Northern Michigan railroad, visited the University Monday. In the inter-state oratorial contest Illinois was first; Wisconsin, second; Ohio, third; Indiana, fourth; and Kansas fifth. The Kansas man, Mr. W. C. Coleman of Emporia, received first place on thought and composition. At the next annual meeting of the State Pharmaceutical Association, to be held in this city the latter part of this month. Prof. Sayre will open the program with a lecture or the Applications of Science in Pharmaceutical Practice. The regular base ball team has been chosen Its players are Kelsev, Gear, Steinberger, Bedell, Alden, Sheman, Matteson, Crawford, Williamson, Chamberlain and Hickey. Professors Kellogg and Sayre are investigating the subjects of insects attacking drugs. Prof. Sayre, through the pharmaceutical press, has asked the druggists of the United States to send to the University samples of drugs attacked by insects. Last year Prof. Kellogg classified a number of these injurious insects, and an article upon the subject was presented at the last meeting of the State Pharmaceutical Association. At the coming meeting of the Association, May 23d, 24th and 25th, a report of additional investigation will be made. Dr. Potter, of Sterling, visited the University Monday. F. J. Fulton is visiting his University friends this week. H. O. Kruse received a visit from relatives the first of the week. The state architect is working on the plans for the new physics building. Mi's Alice Shepard has withdrawn from the University. Also Miss Deweese. Washburn defeated Michigan college at Topeka Saturday by a score of 10 to 8. Masons were at work Monday and Tues day repairing the stone fence in front of the campus. A brother of Pitcher Duryea, of the McLooks, is pitcher for the Washington League club. There will be an exhibition game of base ball between K. U. and Washburn here Wednesday. Brewster and Close, the battery for the Washburn base ball nine, are said to be hard to beat. We have just received word from Vermont that the predictions of our weather prophet were fulfilled to the letter there. W. M. Curry was in Nortonville last week to attend the commencement exercises of the Nortonville high school. "All right, I'll rost him," was heard by the occupants of the reading-room, and in came an editor on a University paper. The sixteenth century German Literature class has just finished Goethe's Werther. It will take up Goetz von Berichlingen next. Depaaw University in Indiana has won the inter-state oratorical contest four times. Depaaw must be the home of silver-tongued orators. A large number of delegates to the Sunday School convention increased the list of names on the visitors register the first of the week. It cost one student in the University seventy five cents to learn that the electric watch clock in the main corridor is not run by electricity. The Freshman Chemistry class had its pictures taken Tuesday. Such an aggregation of beauty was never before collected in so small a space. Miss Laura O'Bryan, of the Art Department, will have some of her etchings exhibited at the World's Fair. She is the only lady etcher in the state. The Chemical Department has received some specimens of borneite from E. W. Walter, a former student, who is now with a smelting company in Pueblo. Each student in the Toxicology class is given an animal to poison. A post mortem examination of the animal is then made to ascertain the cause of its death. The Epworth League will hold its anniversary exercises at the Methodist church Sunday evening. A number of University people will be on the program The young ladies of the art department now frequent the city park in order to take sketches of the passers-by. Keep your weather eye open when you pass the park. The program for the Science club this week is: A New Seat for Science, V. L. Kellogg; Notes on Geology, E. C. Case; Notes on Chemistry, I. R. R frockrue. The club meets at 5 o'clock this afternoon. Prof. Mavin and J. E. Curry are buysily enraged testing the strength of Kansas building stones. About 400 stones have already been tested. It takes from 12,000 to 23,000 pounds per square inch to crush one of them. The machine in which they are crushed is capable of exerting a pressure of 100,000 pounds. Musin Concert Company. The concert by the Musin Company at the opera house last Saturday evening made a most brilliant closing event for the University lecture bureau course. The concert was fully up to the high standard set by the bureau in the lecture field, and the satisfaction which it gave proved conclusively that the selection of the best talent, even though it may come high, will bring the best financial returns. Musin is indeed a great artist, and his wife shares the honors equally with him. In some of their duets for voice and violin, the perfection of tone blending was marvellous. One of Musin's finest selections was the solo upon his "one string" violin which was likewise one of the principle features of his concert here last year. Miss Parmenter, who gave so much pleasure in her ballad singing when last in Lawrence, was in fine voice, and gave a delightful rendering of "Oh Promise Me." The basso, Mr. Delasco, is a new man in the company, who pleased the audience so well that he was repeatedly enforced. Mr. Scharp is one of the best pianist, both as an accompanist and soloist, who has ever appeared in the opera house, and the effects he obtained from the "old familiar grand piano" were as echoes of the fine tones which the instrument possessed many years ago. It is a pleasure to attend a concert in which all the solosists are artists of the first rank, and every member acceptable to every one in the audience. Lawrence and the University will always greet the Musin company with a crowded house. Hereafter but two courses will be offered by the School of Music—piano and voice. Each course will be extended to three years, the third year of which will be free. The degree of Bachelor of Music will be given, as heretofore. This change makes our music course equivalent to the courses of the best eastern conservatories. The last meeting of the Language Conference for this school year will be held in the Greek room this afternoon at 4 o'clock. The officers for the coming year will be elected. The following articles will be presented for discussion and criticism: Tony and Pierre, C. E. McClung; Drifting Mid-Continent,[C. M. Sherer]. The meeting is open to all. The state convention of "Sabbath Res" will convene in Topeka next Tuesday, May 16th. The first evening will be devoted to a college program. Representatives of the principal colleges in the state will deliver addresses. Washburn College will furnish the music. Will Curry will represent the University on the program. The absence of weather predictions is explained by the fact that our weather prophet left suddenly for western Kansas to "fix up" the weather out there. He writes that he will remain in western Kansas until the people there have an abundance of rain. Last Monday the Juniors electrocuted one of their members by hanging him to an electric light wire, and presented him to the Senior class. Their long association with the Senior class has so developed their aesthetic nature that they draped him in the Senior colors. The Freshman Botany class meet three days a week now. The first half of this term they met two days a week. Last year the class met every day during the last半 term. The change was made to allow more time for study of lower plant forms during the winter months. The Students Journal. PUBLISHED WEEKLY Students Journal Publishing Company. W.M. J. KREHBIEL ...

The College World The stock of the STUDENTS JOURNAL company consists of non-transferable one dollar shares. Any student, instructor or employee of the University may hold one and only one share. Always our alma mater first, other matters secondary. THE Sophomore-Freshman ball game promises to be an interesting match since both classes have secured some excellent material. REPORT has it that Washburn has a strong baseball team this year and our boys should remember that their first test of strength with them is for the championship. THE Newton Republican in speaking of Miss Watson says that "she has been the popular librarian of the state University for fifteen years, and it is said that she is the only librarian in the state who can keep perfect quiet in a library and never make an enemy." Poor Bethany at Topeca has been "smitten" with an epidemic which carried off all its students who were to graduate this spring. The dread malay, marriage, obtained a foothold, swept the class, and now the undergraduate ladies are lamenting that they are not destined to be seniors this year. ALTHOUGH warned by a stray ball passing through between the two sections of wire netting in front of the McCook Field grand stand and striking a spectator, the athletic authorities have not attended to this dangerous oversight. The two sections should be so firmly secured together as to admit no ball between them. The next time greater damage may be done. THE entrance fee for events in the coming field-day exercises is but fifty cents, and it will enter the contest in any or all events, admit him to the grounds, and give him all the privileges of the grounds. The amount given for this small fee is so great as to amount to paying the contestant for entering, and it is to be hoped that many more will enter for one or more events. THE fact that before the chart for the Musin Concert had been open twelve hours every seat had been taken, shows how much the patrons must have expected to hear something excellent. Neither were they disappointed, for every member of the company is an artist. Next to Musin himself the mezzosoprano and the basso were extraordinary, and greatly pleased the audience. THE Peru, Indiana, high school has applied to this University to be registered as an accredited high school. Verily the fame of our alma mater doth spread. This solicitude on the part of a high school in a far off state should open the eyes of the Kansas high schools to the fact that this is indeed a university, and they should strive to prepare their pupils better for entrance to the University. THEE are but a few days remaining before the Field-day exercises, but it seems as if the enthusiasm which was so well begun at the time of the indoor meet is well nigh run down. Only a few entries have been made, and for some of those little practice is being done. Competing schools are energetically training their athletes for the coming contests, and by their determined efforts deserve to win. Our athletes are too prone to rely on past laurels and to ignore present practice until it is too late. Entries should be made for all the events and then practice should be so continuous that K. U. can make a favorable showing before her visiting rivals In the ball game of Saturday it was quite noticible that several of the team were weak in their plays, and it is not to be wandered at when one recollects that of the nine who played, only three were not dancing late the night before. Athletes cannot expect to win renown when all the while cheating nature of her just dues and working directly against her efforts to win. It is greatly to be deplored that a student who sets himself up as a searcher after knowledge, truth, and justice should in practice be so forgetful of the property rights of his fellow men as to appropriate to his own use what belongs to another. And still more is it to be deplored that such a young man is connected with our institution. After repeated corrections and warnings he, still so persists in his nefarious practice that soon nothing short of stern law coupled with fear of prison will affect him. Our band is very much in need of new music, and it is no more than right that the students should pay for it. The band is laboring under the disadvantages always incident to beginning, and this merited assistance would be well rendered. At all of the University gatherings the band plays free of charge, and in return the student body should contribute liberally toward its support. The Journal is assured that, if some friend of the band would canvass the student body, a large sum could easily be raised by very small individual contributions. The burden of Dr. Taylor's chapel talk on Monday morning was the power of personality. He himself is an excellent example of this wonder-working force, and his every movement and word betokens the strength and vitality of the man. He has succeeded better than any other man in combining the workings of religion and sociology. He has applied religion to society, and has made it a potent influence in uplifting the masses. Practical theology is his aim, and he is now preparing other men for the work by exercising the power of personality in which he so thoroughly believes. Now that the warm weather is approaching, the number of ways to detract a student from his work is increasing. Add to this increased facility to occupy soare moments and moments that are not spare, the natural propensity of youth to shirk all effort during the drowsy spring time, and you have a condition which is incompatible with the progress of education. Just at this time of the year, when a student has fairly begun steady work, he should zealously guard his time, that he waste none of it. The student is better prepared to do the harder work which is imposed in consequence of this improved condition over that of the beginning of the term; and instead of doing less work he should do more and better work than before. A denial of small pleasures here and there to one who has a thought beyond his nose, is only making life worth living, and is at the same time storing up for the future. At no time should a student allow himself to think that because there are only a few weeks more of school, he may squander a minute. In spite of the inclementy of the weather, on last Sunday afternoon, the audience room of the Congregational church was filled by those cager to listen to Dr. Graham Taylor, of Chicago, The Doctor spoke largely from the standpoint of Christian sociology, his subject being "Personality Impowered by Christian Influence." He gave many striking examples which he has met with in his investigations among the lower classes of society. OUR STUDY WINDOW. SAD FACE OF A SOPHOMORE. [As revealed to him by his Lexicon.] I'm reading the odes of Horace— Mostly between the lines— And there has come upon me A dreadful belief in sigma. I sit and caze at my lexicon With a brow of melancholy. The old book opens to "amo," And then it opens to "Poly." The old thing tells the truth like a book, But I can not make it say— By any amount of coaxing— "Poly" — "amat" — "me." "There is a unanimous and enthusiastic college spirit (at Bryn Mawr), but it seems to be the desire of all that the four classes shall not be separated, and that Senior and Freshman shall stand on equal footing. To one accustomed to the class pride of K. U, this seems a great lack, and it strikes one as a little curious that students should pride themselves on their union into one body, instead of a separation into four distinct classes." Curious indeed! but it must be remembered that Bryn Mawr is a school for girls, and girls are really better fitted to appreciate the beauties of class spirit as displayed by members of the sterner sex than to demonstrate them in their own persons. Poor Bryn Mawr, being wholly feminine, must content herself with pride in the unity of her student body, and get along as best she can with mere college spirit. Among ourselves, as is well known class spirit is not only present, but or the increase, and as K. U. always carries whatever she takes up right straight forward, our plans for the future should not be made without reference to this fact. If the airy dance about the Maypole is to become a yearly occurrence, due provision should be made for it. The upper story windows—not forgetting the one in the Study—might be furnished with an iron bar or two, so that the girls could look out upon the fray without danger of falling. Those of the girls themselves who have sufficient courage and philanthropy might form a Red Cross Society or something of the sort, proyide themselves with needles, thread, bandages, etc., and do field work among their wounded brethren. Judging from the experience of one resident on the hillside during last year's manifestations of class spirit, the most suitable style of architecture for the Chancellor's residence, would be something medieval. At least there should be a moat and draw-bridge, and it might be wise to furnish the main building with the same means of protection. Thus prepared and secured, we could watch the growth of class spirit with equanimity, and its manifestations in safety, being assured that it is all in some inscrutable manner for the good of the school and the advancement of civilization. A REAL LIFE TRAGEDY. One day last fall a beautiful girl, not more than eighteen or nineteen, accompanied by her father entered the car where I was riding. They took the seat just in front of me, and, as they were very unguarded in their conversation, I could not help hearing much of what they said. They were returning home, it seemed, after a visit with an old friend of the father, in the Indian Nation, where they had been shut off from outside communication. They had not heard from their friends now for two weeks, and were, of course, very anxious to reach home and see them; especially as one of the friends was the girl's lover. That she was to be married to him soon was evident from the remark she made to her father, — "Only a little while, papa, until I shall be Mrs. George ——" Her father smiled at the words, but the name struck me at once. It was that of a prominent young business man, who within the past week, had been found to have embzzled a large sum from the firm of which he was a member, and who had immediately pleaded guilty and received a heavy sentence. I fell to wondering if the George —— this girl continued to speak of with such evident love and pride, was the same George — whose name had been in every one's mouth and who was so soon to begin a long term in the penitentiary. I could not be certain that it was, but the coincidence of the names was striking, at least, and during the rest of the ride I found myself often returning to the thought of what her suffering would be if the first news she received on reaching home was, that her lover was a condemned thief serving a convict's sentence. Our train did not pull into the Union Depot at St. Louis until after dark. It was a rainy night, no trains leaving at that hour, and the platforms were almost deserted. I noticed as our train backed in, that the usual precaution of placing men upon the engines working beneath the sheds had been omitted. The father and daughter stepped off the train just before me, and I heard the girl say. "O, Papa, there is George come to meet us! You telegraphed him we were coming, didn't you?" Looking up, I saw a young man whose face I instantly recognized as the original of the cuts with which the papers had recently been filled My surmise had been correct; and the trusting girl was meeting her felon lover on his way to don the stripes. He was in charge of a deputy sheriff, whose badge, catching the light form the electric lamps, glimmered as if it strove to call attention to the duty its wearer was performing. "George," called the impulsive girl;—then, suddenly catching sight of the irons on his wrists, she cried, "O George, what is the matter?" He made no answer, but stood looking down, trembling visibly. Other than the start he gave upon hearing her voice and the agitation his carriage manifested, he made no sign of recognition. When she found he did not speak, the girl sprang forward and appealed to the officer, upon whose arm her ungloved hand was laid in deep agitation. "O, sir, why is he handcuffed? Where are you going with him? What is the matter?" "I am sorry, Miss, if he is anything to you; he has embezellied money, and is being taken to Jefferson City for ten years." His words seemed to daze her for a moment, and she stood motionless. The next, she uttered a piercing shriek, threw up her hands, and fell fainting upon the track, under the tender of a locomotive that was just then backing past us. Her father sprang foward, but before he reached her, her body was run over by the heavy wheels, and as he put out his hands the blood spurted over them No one saw the rest, no one knows whether it happened by accident or purpose,—but when the engine had gone by and we raised the girl's crushed body, we saw upon the rails another form, whose mangled arms were bound together at the wrists with handcuffs.

That K. U. can play ball this season was plainly seen when they played a tie game with the famous McCooks, of Fort Leavenworth. The result was very unexpected both to the home club and to the visitors. "We'll have a walk away," said the McCook catcher at the beginning of the fourth inning, when three scores had been credited to the McCooks and nothing to K. U., and so thought the spectators. Before the game was completed, he had changed his mind, as it ended in a tie score. The tie could not be played off because of the lack of time, for the Fort boys had to leave for home. Durure kept mattering something not very religious, under his breath, and tried to smash in the back stop on the grand stand, in his efforts to find the holes in the bats of the K. U. men. But in vain. After the third inning K. U. repeatedly found the ball and kept tapping it out in the field during the rest of the game. But not nearly all her taps were safe hits. They had found the sphere and would not let up on it until they had sent six men across the home plate. The McCooks played a fine game of ball, but somehow they didn't get on to Gear's curves as might have been expected from their reputation. Duryea is the best pitcher K U. has faced this year, and Fieldcamp holds him to perfection. Their team work was good and but few errors were counted against them. The team and positions were as follows: The K. U. boys put up the best game that they have played this season. Gear had good control of the ball, and was hard to hit. Kelsey played his usually strong game. But they did not confine themselves to battery work alone. Nearly every time they went to bat they made safe hits. Gear made a three bagger. In fielding and base running, the team did well, but the work of the infield needs strengthening by practice and more united work. But few errors were made by out队. Matteson played a good third base. Bedell is improving in his batting, but he did not do so well as usual at first. Crawford Lys back too far. Perhaps it would be better for the team if he was farther away. He made one or two fine fly catches. Score by innings: The team and positions were as follows: of cooks U. OF K. Duryea Pitcher. Gear Fieldcamp Catcher. Kelsey Myers First base.

Good work guaranteed. Early Tim s in California. Last Friday's Seminary was one of the most interesting and attractive of the year. Ex-Goy, Robinson talked about Early Times in California. As he went to California in the "early days," along with others in quest of gold, he was able to relate from personal experience many of the exciting episodes of those times. A short time after arriving in California he settled in Sacramento City, then a small but lively mining town. He soon took sides with the squatters—people who had pre empted land but had no legal title to it in their struggles against speculators who tried to rob them of their possessions. These speculators claimed to own all the land in and about Sacramento, but in reality their claims were without foundation. Yet they controlled with their money the municipal government, owned the courts, and subsidized the press. They would seize the land occupied by squatters, destroy their shanties and turn them out in the midst of the rainy season without shelter, food or protection. At last the coviictions became too frequent for endurance. The squatters called a mass meeting at which resolutions were passed guaranteeing to every settler the peaceable possession of his claim until a legal title to it could be obtained. A Squatter's Protective Association was also organized with Gov. Robinson as president. The city council now ordered the seizure of the town property owned by the squatters. Its decrees were defied. The speculators now had recourse to the courts. The courts declared the squatters' titles to the land in question illegal. The courts were so notoriously partial to the speculators that their decisions were not regarded. As a last resort, the squatters issued a manifesto repudiating the courts and declaring their independence. The Declaration of Independence written by Jefferson was used, modified, however, to conform to the new conditions. In a contest over the possession of a home in Sacramento, the sheriff and his possee came face to face with a squad of armed squatters. Shots were exchanged on both sides but the squatters were 1 ft in possession of the field. The leader of the settlers was killed and Governor Robinson severely wounded, captured and incarcerated in a prison ship. A riot now seemed immanent. The state militia was called out to quell the disturbance; yet they were secretly in favor of the squatters. The miners in the neighborhood, to the number of ten thousand, organized and declared that if the speculators did renounce their claims they would march on Sacramento, sack and destroy it. This had the desired effect. The squatters were allowed to have peaceable possession of their lands and later obtained legal tild-s to them from the U. S government. The Sophomore zoology class will complete the study of the internal anatomy of the crayfish this week, and begin the work of collecting and classifying insects next week. THE COLLEGE WORLD. Johns Hopkins University does not permit its students to publish a paper. We have received a copy of the Cooper Courler of Sterling, Kansas. It is an honor to the institution that it represents. Columbus College has fifty more students than Harvard and one hundred and fifty more than Yale.—Round Table She—Will I pass without taking an examination? Prof. -You may by a tight squeeze. She—Oh, how provoking you are! out I'd even submit to that to avoid examination —Cento. The Juniors of the engineering department of the University of Wisconsin spent a week's vacation visiting Chicago plants, thus adding practical to technical education. —Baker Beacon. Without doubt institutions of learning will soon abandon the custom of hold- annual commencements. Johns Hopkins, Columbia, Williams, Dartmouth and the University of Michigan have already discontinued it. Lawrence has the most ignorant man in the Anglo-Saxon race. When the minister told him he should eschew evil, he said that he hadn't chewed anything but "pig tail" for seventeen years, but if that was a better brand he was willing to try it, if it made him sick.-College Life. A student at college included in the list of expenses which he sent to his father the item, "Charity, 30." The father remarked in his reply, "I fear that charity covers a multitude of sins."—Exchange. This was a K. U. student, and his initials are C. T. 75c A GARMENT. French Underwear.

Oh, they come, a bright procession. Ah, they come, a bright procession, Trooping up at Memory's call, Bringing sunshine in their tresses, Ringing laughter through each hall. Varied forms and varied faces. Artless some, while others Art Has left its touch upon their faces Left its imprint on their heart. Some there are with fluffy tresses, Sparkling eye and brow of snow. And the south wind's soft carasses Bring to lip and cheek a glow. Some there are of soft braids minus, Who with hauteur in their pose. Would affect the charms they have not Just by turning up their nose. But for all a word of welcome, Words of cheer and praise for all. For the girls with bangs all fluffy And the girl with none at all. For the girl with pose affected And the girl who pose has none. For the girl with looks dejected And the girl who's full of fun. But in whatever place they shine, With or without the curls. Upon this point we're all agreed: Blessings on our K. U. girls. A certain student in the Uiiversity can stand in one end of the hall and hear the echo of his new spring suit very distinctly at the other end. The problem arises with some Sophmores: If a few shreeds of the Freshman and Junior flags cost $14, what would it have cost to get both flags entire? The ages of the members of the senior class have been averaged up. It appears that, if age is any qualification, the Egyptian mummy on exhibition down town would stand a show of getting in. The Junior class should appoint a committee to confer with Seniors with regard to cheap rates on local ads. "Little Seniorttes" would be a good name for the local column of the Lawrence Journal. A bright Sophomore, speaking of the conceit of a prominent senior the other day, said: "Egotism! why, he has been petrified with self-esteem, and now that he is dead, he has canonized himself in his own estimation." Do you know the University has a cat? Get acquainted with it. Some day it may awaken a long dormant line of memories. True it is only a black cat with a white upper hip on the left side, with white breast and feet. In short it is a white cat with black head, back, tail and limbs, but it will answer the purpose and beat half a dozen memorabilia clubs. When you bring your dinner up, feed it. Its name is Cassius, from the lean and hungry look which it wears. In after years when the sweet nymphs of Oread shall draw us back to the sacred mount, the memories which will touch our hearts and bring a tear, will be little things which entered into every day life, and became a part of our unconscious self. The grand prospect, the handsome buildings may bring back the past of the school, but the details will recall the past of ourselves. Like lines found inscribed in a musky book with only the initial below, they will sadden us. O. A. Harding, city attorney of Garden City, Kansas, is visiting friends in the University.

SPALDING, A.M., President. K. U. vs. Lawrence. On Wednesday of last week K. U. crossed bats for the first time this season with a professional team, and won by a score of 6 to 4. Those who thought K. U. was not in it since Phillips withdrew from school were most agreeably surprised at Gear's pitching. His control of the ball is wonderful and his curves are not so very easy to hit, as the Lawrence professionals found out. It was the first time the Lawrence men had played together, so their team work was not as good as it might have been. They made some errors. K. U. played ball from the start and were credited with but few errors. There was not much heavy batting done by either side. The Juniors had a class meeting last week and passed a resolution that the Junior class "nave a social event." After mature deliberation a committee was appointed to suggest and arrange for the "event." Infected chinch bugs have been sent to the experiment stations in Missouri Oklahoma, Nebraska and Texas, and from these stations as headquarters infected insects will be sent to the farmers in the surrounding country.

Prof Blake was experimenting last week trying to operate a very large telephone with the alternating electric current. Chancellor Snow, Professors Shepard and Adams, Will Snow and McMasters were the only K U. people who attended the Washburn game Saturday Matteson, Gear, McMasters and Johnson attended the Raker field day last Saturday. Laundry gathered Monday and delivered Friday by Zeller. Good work guaranteed. The summer school seems to be receiving much encouragement. Numerous inquiries concerning it have been received from various parts of the state. Harvard defeated Yale in general athletics last week by a score of 67 to 45 points. Miss Nellie Franklin is now on the Atlantic returning to America after a two years' musical course in Berlin. She will be in Lawrence before commencement. Mr. Vanutta and daughter, Miss Cora, and Miss Pearl McCreery, all of Norton- ville, were at the University this week. Baker University held their Field Day last Saturday. Howey equalled the world's record for high kick. What arrangements have been made for a tennis tournament? A tennis tournament should be held if for no other reason than to let girls show their athletic ability. A certain young man who went to Topeka with Twelfth Night, tried to blow out the incandescent light which was in his room; but falling in this he let it burn all night. When Mephisto appeared before the foot lights last Wednesday evening in crimson, the University boys in "Heaven" should have greeted him with their college yeil· Mephisto loyes the K. U. boys. The girls on Tennessee street in the thirteen hundred block are going up the river to Cameron's bluff next Saturday on a picnic excursion. As a necessary evil some of the Uniiversity boys will accompany them. E. C. Case is at work indexing the Chemical Journals in the library. He has finished his regular work in the University and now divides his time between this work and his girl. E. J. Muth, a former student, graduates at the University of Pennsylvania Medical College this year. As a member of the committee for the arrangement of commencement exercises, he is sending out invitations to his friends in the University. I R. Rothrock is making some organic compounds for use in the chemical laboratory. Armstrong and Peabody were in the city Sunday. Ray Smith, of Baker, was in Law- ence Saturday. Miss Juliet Titsworth received a visit from her father, J. H. Titsworth, Thursday and Friday. No one sees the wallet on his own back, though everyone carries two packs—one before, stuffed with the faults of his neighbors and one behind, filled with his own —Old Proverb. The optional class in first year Greek has read this year 125 pages of Greek Mythology, one book in the New Testament, and is now reading Homer. This is an excellent showing. The Greek symposium meets this afternoon instead of Wednesday afternoon as usual. Prof. Wilcox will present stereopotion views of ancient Athenian architecture. Mr. O. W. Babcock, president of the board of education of Nortonville, was in the city last week. Saturday, May 29th, is the day for the inter-collegiate field day. It will be held at McCook athletic field. It promises to be quite interesting, and K. U. will have to bustle if she comes out ahead. The new diplomas for the members of the Senior class who are so fortunate as to graduate, have arrived and are being draughted by the engineers. They are of genuine imported sheepskin. Prof. Wilcox lectured last week before the classical students in the Lawrence High School, on Socrates. Some person cut the wire connecting the weather on top of the main building with the weather in the chancellor's office. As a result the chancellor's office has been without the latest weather for several days. One of the great needs of students taking advanced work in Mathematics, especially engineering students, is a whole year's work in Calculus. In one term the subject is not more than outlined and fairly begun. The inter collegiate field day is almost upon us, and how many of K. U.'s representatives in the contests have been practicing steadily? Not a single one we will venture to say. If we act this way K. U. can only expect to take a back seat in the contest Another defeat or so may teach us to practice. The last meeting of the Language Conference for this year, which was held last Thursday afternoon, was devoted to the reading and criticism of original papers by Mr. McClung and Mr. Sheerer. Officers for the ensuing year were elected as follows: President, Prof. C. G. Dunlap; secretary, C. S. Griffin; program committee, Prof. Carruth, Prof. Canfield and Miss Oliver. A small pamphlet on the rules and regulations governing the issuing of state certificates, life diplomas, conductors' and instructors' certificates for teaching in Kansas schools has just been issued by the state board of education. Graduates of the University who desire to obtain state teachers' certificates must be examined in philosophy of education, history of education, school law, school management, and methods of instruction. Examinations will be held in the University, the last week in May, and the fourth week in August. If the holder of a three years certificate teaches successfully for two years, at the expiration of this certificate, a life certificate will be issued in its place. H. M Fuller spent Sunday in Leavenworth. Field Day Saturday. Prof. Geo. Hopkins, of the Art Department has resigned. One student in the senior class sat fourteen times for his picture. Chapel exercises are being conducted ths week by Chancellor Snow. The Class in Gothic is reading "Skei- eries," a commentary on the gospel of Joan. The Juniors had their "social event," a picnic at Cady's grove, last Tuesday afternoon. Curry and Brayton are making a survey for a macadamized road across the Wakarusa bottoms. Prof. Williston delivers the alumni ad, dress at the Agricultural college Tuesday evening, June 13th. Prof Blake is experimenting on the river this week preparatory to his summer's work. Prof. Miller delivers the commencement address of the Garnette, Kansas, high school tomorrow evening. The masons are busy this week repointing the walls of the main building and the stone fence in front of the campus. The electrical engineering students are preparing to make an exhibit during commencement week, of work done in the E. E. shops. Chancellor Snow, Gov. Robinson and Miss Carrie Watson were in Kansas City Tuesday in the interest of the new library building. Mrs. Evelyn Miller and two daughters who have been visiting Prof. Miller for some time, started for their home in California last Friday. Prof. Shepard will probably be engaged in electrical railway work in Buffalo, New York, this summer. The Pharmaceutical society extended an invitation to the State Pharmaceutical Association to hold its annual meeting in Lawrence next year. Mrs. C. M. Perkins will deliver the alumni address on Tuesday of commencement week. Her address will be out of the usual line and very interesting. The manuscript for the pharmacy catalogue has been sent to press; the music catalogue is in preparation; and a new bulletin on languages has just been published. Prof. Williston will make a large addition to the geological museum this summer. Among the specimens to be added will be some fossil leaves from southwestern Kansas. Prof. Carruth lectured to the students in the Sophomore German class last Wednesday on Faust, in order to prepare them for Morrison's dramatized Faust Wednesday evening. The department of Physics received last week a ballistic calvameter costing $150. This is the first installment of a large number of valuable electrical instruments which have been ordered. The building committee appointed by the Board of Regents will probably meet before commencement to make arrangements for the new buildings. The Board of Regents will meet during commencement to confer diplomas and attend to miscellaneous matters. The Alumni Association of the School of Pharmacy held a meeting last Monday evening to decide on the time and place for the alumni banquet. It was decided to hold the banquet in the mid-february laboratory of the Pharagon Department, at 9 o'clock p.m., June 5th. Independent Banquet. Friday night of last week will long be remembered by the Independents of our University. Not so much because of the pleasant time many of them spent at the banquet and ball in Fraternal Aid hall, but because this event marks the close of a very successfully conducted series of parties inaugurated this year among the hitherto supposed unsocial independents. The event was in every way a decided success, and reflects credit upon the members of the committee who have so untiringly devoted many days to its preparation. The hall was tastefully decorated with streamers of yellow and blue, draped and twined in artistic and pleasing style high above the spread of large white tables. Tapestries, portiers, rugs, and hangings, together with restful furniture, served to make the balconies and the stage quite homelike. Flowers and plants aided in the effort to make the scene one of pleasure. Promptly at 9 o'clock, thirty-nine couples took their places at the table and partook of the banquet served in five elegant courses by Wiedemann, in his best style and taste. Through the dreamy mazes of Saunder's best music could be heard ripples of laughter and the broken hum of conversation as the feast progressed, and while all lingered over the last course, the toast master, Mr. Win, J. Krebblief, arose and announced the first toaster, Mr. Charles H. Lease, who then spoke on "The Faculty," in his pleasing style, referring to the "red card" token of the love the faculty bore to the students. On behalf of the faculty Professor A. G. Canfield responded to Mr. Lease, thankening him for his generous estimate of the faculty and then recounting in his forcible manner, the historic achievements of his fellow professors. Mr. A. A. Besey next tasted "The Barb Girls" those ladies who, having thoughts beyond present pleasure, are willing to speed years to acquire a University education. Miss Nina Bowman as a "barb" girl responded to the toast, remarking that but for the example of the generous "barb" boys, they could not so well emulate their barbarian sisters of old, in striving amidst perplexities for the advancement of humanity, instead of the enjoyment of self. As this ended the program of toasts the party withdrew to the balconies and the stage, while attendants quickly cleared the floors for the dancers who merrily enjoyed the program of fifteen numbers, and then went out into the night with cord recollections of the last independent party of the season. A Fossil Rhinoceros. Two years ago the late Judge West and Mr. Overton collected two or three tertiary fossil bones and shipped them to the University. From these bones a complete skeleton of a hornless rhinoceros has been obtained. The skeleton is now being mounted by Mr. Overton and will be placed in the geological museum before next September. It is about five feet high and seven feet long—about as large as the largest rhinoceros of the present day. Rhinoceros skeletons of the tertiary period are very rare and consequently of great value. In fact this specimen is the first of its kind to be mounted. In the tertiary period when the animals held sway on the face of the earth, numerous rhinoceros roamed over the country which is now our sunny Kansas. Socrates was fond of playing with children and was often seen busy with them at their games. The Students Journal PUBLISHED WEEKLY; BY THE Students Journal Publishing Company. Wm. J. KREHBIEL ...

Saturday, on McCook Field. LAY all else aside on Saturday and spend your time on McCook Field The Seaior biographer is on the still hunt. Don't shun him; he will immortalize you ___ READ on another page what the JOURNAL has done for the student, and then remember it. HAVE you secured a copy of the "Quiyira" for yourself and one for your friend? If not, why not? "Sow an act, and you reap a habit; sow a habit, and you reap a character; sow a character, and you reap a destiny." WHILE the timorous Senior gallant is thinking hard what his last deeds and words will be to his fond one, that fond one is racking her brain, consulting purse and tailor—all to solve the vexed question "to be or not to be"—trains and crinolines? In his annual report President Dwight, of Yale, dwells with satisfaction upon the experiment of opening the graduate department to young women. Twenty-three women have taken advantage of this, and the University has since received many important gifts from women. The annual senior-faculty base ball game is the most eloquent argument in favor of athletic sports. It certainly cannot be said that it does not give exercise to those who most need it. The faculty and the seniors are probably the weakest physically in the school. More over this game always gives plenty of exercise to the spectators—a sometimes even violent shaking of the sides. A school history of Kansas by a Kansasan is to be issued in the fall, and Secretary Adams, of the State Historical Society, will be the author. Mr Adams is well qualified by his long association with historical data of the sunflower state to write such a history, and remembering his untiring zeal for finding the truth of history, this will be a valuable addition to knowledge and to Kansas literature. The unsophisticated are very prone to go astray in their zeal to emulate the greatness of some person whom they have adopted as an ideal, and often fall into ridiculous habits. This may be an answer to the question why so many of the students in the University so readily put on that philosophical look which makes them appear crabbed and old before their time. In no sense is a university a grave yard. ___ THAT careless indifference and exasperating independence which a number of our athletes have shown this season toward the success of our athletic contests may not have been as intentional as it seemed, but nevertheless its effect was the same. A player, who, when asked to be moderate and regular in his habits, will insist upon remaining up the whole night before a contest, or who will fully remain away from practice the day before a game, is not a gentleman, nor is he showing a proper spirit toward the united effort of the team for success. Strict obedience to the wishes of the manager, loss of self in his zeal to win, mindfulness how his play will affect his fellow, are some of the virtues of a successful athlete. THE New York Nation on May 11th told its readers about the prizes offered by the Smithsonian Institute for discoveries and essays concerning atmospheric sir. THE STUDENTS JOURNAL informed the public of the same thing on April 27th. This is technically called a " scoop." and the JOURNAL is again assured that there are newspapers and newspapers. EVERY Freshman should own a copy of "Quivira" because by it he can see where the other classes have failed and steer clear of their faults; every Sophomore should have one because his deeds of valor are recorded therein; every Junior should own one to spur him on that his class may next year outdo the efforts of the projectors of the book; and every Senior should own one as a memento of his last year at K. U. Our athletes, although perhaps not different in this respect from others, have very often failed to heed that most important adjunct to the successful operation of a body of men—untitled and concerted action. The vanity of an athlete leads him to underestimate the value of this "team play," as we call it, and he is ever trying to make a good individual appearance and record. The successful manager of any body of men, is always quick to recognize the ability of that man who can lose self in his efforts to make a body of men act with the precision of a single being. FIELD day sports are for the many, not the few. They are pre eminently qualified for moderate exercises for the mass of students who do not claim any athletic ability akin to professionalism, and should, therefore, be entered by many such students. If every student in the University will lend a hand to make the Field Day a brilliant success, then we may expect that its annual return will be looked forward to with eager expectation. Furthermore it will help to aid the general cause of systematic athletic exercises for the mass of students. It will become a feature of University life which will long be remembered and which future generations will be thankful for. Do your duty. THE English department has a list of meaningless hieroglyphs, covering nearly two printed pages, for the use of critics in correcting themes. Often the student will pass by these meaningless signs, taking for granted that the error they stand for is slight. If, however, signs must be used, and it is probably well, the critics should use those which are used everywhere in correcting manuscript and proof in publication offices. In this way the student and critic will familiarize themselves with a set of signs which mean something outside the class room, and which will be useful hereafter. Otherwise a student in correcting manuscripts for publication will often fall into the error of using signs which to others mean absolutely nothing. Economy demands that whatever we do should be as useful as possible. Professor Carruth is under engagement with Ginn & Co. and Henry Holt & Co to write two text books for use in College German classes. For Ginn & Co, he is getting out a book entitled Selections from the Writings of Martin Luther, and for Holt & Co, an edition of Schiller's Wallenstein. The "Wallenstein" will be handsomely illustrated, and on account of certain improvements will be a great advance over ordinary text books. As a general rule, text books for these two well known firms are written by eastern scholars but in this instance, recognizing talent in the west, they chose Professor Carruth. Prof. Franklin talked last Tuesday to the students taking advanced work in Chemistry on Chemical Physics. OUR STUDY WINDOW. to the Literary Editor of the Students Journal: MADAM: It was my fortune a few days ago to address the Kansas Society for the Encouragement of the Modern Arts upon the subject of Horsemanship, or the Art of Riding a Pony. The address was, I believe I can say with perfect modesty, an excellent one, and as, for some mysterious reason, a full report of it has not yet appeared in any of the metropolitan newspapers, I take this opportunity of submitting a few extracts from it to a more extensive audience than it was my fortune to address at that time. MR. PRESIDENT, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: I cannot conceive of a more interesting, suggestive, or important subject than that upon which I am to address you this evening. In the wider fields of aesthetic development, the progress in modern times has not been remarkable. All modern architecture is little more than the reproduction and elaboration of classic and Gothic forms. The history of modern sculpture is almost made up of the history of the influence of Greek sculpture on modern times. In music and painting, in poetry and prose literature, the superiority of Greek to modern times has long been established. Homer is the first of epic poets; Sophocles is the first of dramatic poets; Demosthenes is the first of orators; and Thucydides is the first of historians. In one art alone have the Greeks been surpassed by the moderns. The most enthusiastic admirer of the Greeks has never presumed to claim that they were at all advanced in the art of pony riding. From the very nature of the case, indeed, they could not be. They not only never made any progress on the foreign language race course, on which the most brilliant work in pony riding has been done, but they even ridiculed and sneered at all methods of traveling except on foot. Pony riding is a wholly modern art. It is the most notable product of the improved modern educational system. [I perceive that the lack of space will] compel me to omit here the extended account, which followed, of the miraculous rise and development of the art of horsemanship, the eulogy upon the greatness of the art at the present time, and also the picture, wrought out with great care and exactness, of the brilliant prospects which open before it in the future. I will say, however, for the benefit of those who may be most anxious to see it, that I shall incorporate almost all of this part of my address in a handbook for the use of beginners, entitled, "An Easy Ride Through College," which I have now in preparation, and hope to publish in a short time. At present I can only give the closing paragraphs of the address ] But by far the most striking superiority of this to other and less modern arts is the remarkable spirit of modesty which it generates in its masters. Great poets, orators, painters, sculptors and musicians are seldom unwilling to allow their names to be used in connection with their works. Usually, indeed, we see their signatures inscribed in some conspicuous place upon their productions. But I have never once known a pony rider to brand his pony with his own initials. The greatest masters always take studious care that they are never known as pony riders. Even the chief artists of the present day are unknown to the general public. In this is exemplified the peculiar modern spirit of the art. The heroes of old were always ready to boast of their own achievements. Achilles and Ulysses introduced themselves to strangers in terms more boastful than would be used by the friends of a modern hero. I give below a few notes upon the nature and chief excellencies of the different breeds of horses: 1. Large Bohny Horse, for language courses, sure-footed and speedy, but scarce and costly. 2. Metrical Pacers. Easy riders, cheap, suitable for amateurs, but not reliable. Sacrifice speed to showiness of gait. 3. Roan Ponies bred by Arthur Hinds and Co. Excellent, cheap, sure-footed, require little care, and can be conveniently stabled. This is the most common breed in this part of the country. 4. Interlinearas. Speedy and sure-footed, but costly and requiring much care. 5. Home Made Pen and Ink Ponies. No good, almost extinct. Some discussion has taken place in recent years among eminent artists regarding the advisability of the artist's raising his own ponies. I have given much thought to this question and have discovered that the labor necessary to feed end care for one's horses is likely to give the artist the ability and sometimes even the inclination to keep up a respectable pace on foot—which should be avoided by all true lovers of art. It must be admitted, therefore that the practice of raising one's own horses is never advisable. LEO AQUILIAN, Professor of the Theory of Poly Riding to the University of ToKome. NOTE—I am, I confess, open to the charge of presumption in presuming to give a lecture upon an art in which I have myself made such little progress—in which, indeed, I failed in my very first attempt. What I lack in personal knowledge, however, I have endeaved to make up by diligent investigation I have spent nearly four years in collecting material for the present production, and have taken great pains to verify all statements before using them to support my arguments. The difficulties which I have encountered and overcome are such as, I am confident, would have baffled all other investigators. The illimitable modesty which is, as I have said, peculiar to pony riders, has for years kept from my knowledge the excellent artistic work of many of my acquaintances. Some of the most consummate masters have even denied their artistic abilities when openly questioned with regard to them. R. K. Moody has just received fifty copies of the Constitution of the Western Inter-state University Foot-ball Association. The association includes the Universities of Kansas, Missouri, Iowa, and Nebraska. The officers of the association are: President, R K. Moody, of the University of Kansas; vice president, W. M. Johnston, of Missouri University; secretary, D. O. Holbrook, of the University of Iowa; treasurer, Alex Maitland, of the University of Nebraska. At the last regular meeting the University of Kansas was formally awarded the championship for 1893, and forty dollars were appropriated to purchase a suitable trophy. The schedule of games for next fall was also arranged. The following is the schedule: Kansas vs. Iowa at Kansas City, Nov. 4. Nebraska vs. Missouri at Kansas City, Nov. 11. Nebraska vs. Kansas at Lincoln, Nov. 18. Iowa vs. Missouri at Iowa City, Nov. 18. Nebraska vs. Iowa at Omaha, Thanksgiving. Kansas vs. Missouri, Kansas City, Thanksgiving.

Dr. Spencer, President of Cooper College, located at Sterling, was in town last week to address the State Sunday School convention. Dr. Spencer has for some time been endorsing to get recognition for his school from the State Oratorical Association. He does not especially desire admittance to the association as it is now constituted, recognizing that it is already too large. His plan—and certainly it is a very good one—is to divide the school of the state into groups and allow the local orators to contest in these groups, the winner in each to go to the state contest. By this method all the colleges of the state could be let into the association and the state contest still not be nearly so long and tedious as it now is. The plan seems perfectly feasible and certainly just to the smaller colleges of the state. Dr. Spencer's College, although young, and doing largely local work, is yet a broad guage school in spirit, and the faculty is composed of broad minded men, as a glance at their catalogue will show. Why could not some plan be arranged where y Salina, Cooper, Winfield and other institutions in that section could hold a contest to select an orator for the state contest? Why could not Emporia with Ottawa settle their dispute at home? And certainly Baker, Washburn and K U. could furnish entertainment for one evening. That it is unjust to shut out such institutions as the one referred to cannot be denied, neither can recognition be given them so long as the present organization is maintained. The whole organization should be changed. In my estimation a reorganization on some such basis as this, with a few dirk stabs at the grade system, would give kansas a higher place in the Interstate Contest. I would be very glad to see these suggestions set aside by better ones. W. M. C. A New Departure. Recognizing that the ideal college journal is for the benefit of the students of the institution in which it is located, and that it should do all in its power to assist the students in their development, the STUDENTS JOURNAL has decided to make, in a practical way, another step toward the ideal college journal. A serious drawback has been found, which often causes the needy student to leave school, and deters prospective students from entering the University. The Journal proposes to do something to ward removing this drawback. Very frequently, students in the University are obliged to give up their studies and go home just from lack of funds. These students are always willing to work in order to remain at school, but not knowing where to find work, they leave the University, go out into the world and in many instances are prevented from re entering school. Again, many prospective students are unable to enter college because they have insufficient funds and are not sure that they can find employment while at school to pay, in a measure, their college expenses. The other day an alumnus wrote to the University saying that a young man of his acquaintance would attend school if he could find employment for odd hours. This alumnus asked if work could be found. Of course no definite answer could be given; and perhaps this young man will not be able to enter the University. What the STUDENTS JOURNAL proposes is this. To run a WANT COLUMN in which any student or prospective student can state, free of charge, that he desires certain work to perform. This column will also be open to those who want student help. All interested are earnestly requested to make free use of this column. It is rather late in the year to put such a plan in operation, yet it will be of advantage to students who desire employment for next year. The Senior civil engineers are surveying a route for a railway line up Mt. Oread. LEGAL BRIEFS The Juniors are hunting up the mistakes made by the Kansas Supreme Court in deciding cases involving agency. W. E. Higgins is mourning the loss of a umbrella. The Seniors are studying Equity. The Junior class will lose its president next Saturday, as J. Freemont Leidy will then sever his connection with the School. Last Wednesday Prof. Thatcher gave the Seniors a brief but very interesting dissertation on the Advancement of Women. The summer weather finds the zeal of the Kent Club unabated. Next Saturday the debaters will discuss whether or not the enlarged property rights of women are conducive to fraud. Mr. S. Moore, a graduate from the Law Department of K. U. and now assistant attorney for the Santa Fe in Missouri, delivered an instructive and interesting lecture before the law students last Monday on Death by the Wrongful Act. Field Day.

Crimson Victorious. The first game of base ball in the Triangular League series was played last Saturday afternoon at Topeka between Kansas University and Washburn. The former won by a score of 7 to 2. There was no brilliant playing on either side, yet Washburn's team this year is a great improvement over those of preceding years. The members of the two clubs and their positions were as follows; The members of their positions were as follows: K. U. WASHBURN. Kelsey .catcher .Close Gear .pitcher .Brewster Bedell .first base .Lawrence Alden .second base .Mason Matteson .short stop .Mohler Williamson .third base .McVicar Crawford .right field .Mercer Chamberlain .center field .Penfield Sherman .left field .Miller Umpire, Dudgeon. of Baker. NOTES. In the second inning, Gear made a three base hit and scored. Washburn scored in but one inning, the fifth. Sherman was unfortunate in batting files. Chamberlain struck out repeatedly. Bedell ran in this respect a "neck and neck" race with him. Mohler and Lawrence are not students in Washburn College. The following is the score by innings: U. of K...0 1 4 0 0 0 2 0 0-7 Washburn...0 1 4 0 0 0 2 0 0-2 Field Day at Baker.

The Juniors of Buchtel College, Akron, Ohio, recently gave an "Exhibition," evidently somewhat against their wishes. They appeared upon the stage all dressed in black. When the eighth oration was being delivered the audience were seized with violent coughing. Investigation showed that red pepper was burning on the stairs near the door. After this little episode, all went smoothly until at the end of the last oration, four black robed figures appeared and deposited upon the stage a casket bearing the words "Junior Ex" Into this casket the Juniors deposited their several productions, then marched in a body upon the campus, and burned them with mock ceremonies.

Porter Edminster, formerly of Denver, Colorado. died in this city last Thursday, May 18, at the age of 24. Mr. Edminster came to this city about two years ago, entered into the profession of law, and devoted some time to literature, his talent running in that direction. A number of his contributions appeared in the Call and other first-class papers. He had a brilliant career before him, but his life was cut short by an attack of pneumonia which carried him off after an illness of but two days.—San Francisco Call. The news of the death of Porter Edminster will be received with sorrow by his friends in the University. He attended the law school two years, graduating with honor with the class of '90. He was a diligent student, a good amateur player of Shakespeare, and able to repeat whole plays by heart, and was remarkably quickwitted. Readers of the STUDENTS JOURNAL will remember, that he contributed an article to its columns last winter on "Chinatown." His widowed mother has the sympathy of his University friends in her affliction. The Kirmess. A fitting close to the amusement season at the opera house will be the Dance of nations to be given by Miss Georgia Brown, assisted by nearly 200 graceful dancers, who will entertain the Lawrence public with a series of National dances that for grace, beauty, elegance of costume, and thorough refinement have never been excelled on the opera house stage. No professional troupes can begin to compare with such talent. And, while there may be some question in regard to amateur theatricals, there can be none when it comes to a comparison between charming performers in the the Kirmess and the ordinary stage beauties. Novel electric light effects by Prof. Blake will add much to the beauty of the dances. Friday and Saturday nights of this week. Tickets to all parts of the house except gallery 50 cents, gallery 25 cents. Scats on sale at Leis' Drug Store. Faculty vs. Seniors. Last Wednesday afternoon nine members of the faculty laid aside their duties for a few hours and deliberately proceeded to "swipe" the senior nine by a score of 24 to 21. The score was unexpected to everyone, as the senior class had been practicing for weeks, while the faculty never practiced once, together. The seniors failed to find Canfield's curves. We always thought the faculty had a good eye, and from the way they batted Robinson's curves (?) we are convinced that they have. Rice did fine work at the bat. Chancellor Snow ought to practice for third base on the 'Varsity team. Newson's fielding was a feature of the game. Kellogg's slick playing at second won the admiration of all. Canfield and Shepard made a good battery. The fielders did very well, Rice and Jones each made a fine flycatch. During the first four innings, Ro binjson threw for the Seniors, Reno played in the box during the three remaining innings. If he had been there the whole game, the score might have been different. His left handed balls scared the faculty. Hickey did not play his usual good game. Before the game was over he felt rather tired (as did all the seniors). Cooke held first in pretty fair style. Fiegenbaum never had a "SO" after his name in the score book. Linville played a fine third. Sherman went to sleep the first time he came to bat, and didn't wake up until the third strike was made. Cress was subject to the "rattles" and was all thumbs when the ball came near him. The game was exciting throughout, and the K. U. band discoursed sweet music. In the first inning, two men were out and two men on base. It was Chancellor Snow's time to bat. Evidently Robinson thought thus to himself: "Here's my next victim," and he put through one of his little curves, when lo! Chancellor Snow had found it and had tapped it out just beyond the right fielder, and two men scored. In the last inning the faculty ran in eight scores on account of heavy batting and many errors. The following are names of the players and their positions; FACULTY. SENIORS. Canfield. pitcher. Robinson Shepard. catcher. Hickey Adams. first base. Cooke Kellogg. second base. Sherman Snow. third base. Linville Newson. short stop. Cress Rice. right field. Reno Jones. center field. Fiegenbaum Stierling. left field. Whitman Faculty... 3 0 4 6 1 2 8 24-24 Seniors... 4 2 1 2 5 3 4 24-24 Jones or the bat? Which was it? "Who's all right?" Rice, the home run man. The Seniors are trying to find out who "bought off Hickey." "Now yer off, now yer off, SLIDE" and the Chancellor got his bass. Our little entomologist on second didn’t need the net to catch the “flies.” Sterling would have caught those flies, but "the sun was in his eyes," etc. Linville hasn't his diploma yet, so he had better be careful how he slides into third when the Chancellor plays there. Sherman at bat first inning. (Whif) "strike one" (whif) "strike two," (whif) "strike three, batter out." (Applause by spectators in grand stand.) Sterling would not steal a base, on the ethical grounds, that stealing was contrary to every principal derived from a contemplation of his and Pato's idea of virtue. THE CRIMSON CONQUERS. K. U. Defeats Baker and Wins the Pennant. Again the nines of Kansas and Baker universities met upon the diamond to decide the Champship of the Triangular League, and again the University of kansas has the pennant back in her possession. She intends to keep it on Mt. Orden in the future. The game was played on the Massachusetts street grounds, as McCook field was not dry enough to play ball upon. The day was exceedingly chilly, and those who failed to bring overcoats and cloaks regretted it. The game was called at 2:30, with Baker at the bat. Confident of success, a large delegation came up from Baldwin to yell for their nine and float the orange ribbon. But every time they began to yell their "Rah' Rahl' Rah'" they were completely drowned out by the mighty "Rock Chalk! Jay Hawk!" of the wearers of the crimson The "preachers" put up only a fairly good game. They were decidedly weak behind the bat. Funnel couldn't even throw to second, and all the K. U. men had to do to steal second was to trot there. Dudgeon threw much better than in the exhibition game here a couple of weeks ago. Messenger made a poor excuse as short stop. The fielders made many poor plays. The K. U. nine did not play their usual game, by any means. Gear did splendidly up to the last inning, when he seemed to lose his grip somewhat. K. U. permitted six men to score in the last inning. Keisey made a fine foul catch. Sherman did not play left field as well as usual. Bedell was at his best. Instead of striking out, as heretofore, he smashed the ball for a two bagger nearly every time, and his catch at first was the finest of the game. In the first inning Baker was shut out, K. U. made three scores. Baker made three scores in the next, and by making two fly catches and putting out Sherman at first, shuts K. U out. Toomey scored on errors and K. U. was again kept from scoring. The Baker men were then shut out until the seventh, when they made one. In the ninth, not so much on account of ary splendid work of their own, but through the carless playing of the K. U. nine, they ran in six scores. In the sixth inning the K. U. nine took a lead and made six scores. In the next they made four, and in the eighth were shut out. They didn't go to bat in the ninth inning, as they had the gome. The decisions of Brewster, of Washburn were exceedingly shakey, with the exception of one case where his decision was manifestly against Baker, he gave his decisions almost uniformly against K. U. Washburn is evidently sore over the fact that she isn't "in it" any more in base ball. In the future we would advise her to send down an impartial umpire. The names and positions of players were as follows: K U. Gear... pitcher... Duggeon Kelsev... catcher... Funnel Bedell... first base... Brown Alden... second base... Toomey Williamson... third base... Carpenter Crawford... right field... Loomis Sherman... left field... Rice Chamberlain... center field... Sutton Mattheson... short stop... Messenger K.

Now, more than at any other time, the University students should have such a pin, as at the World's Fair many college men will wear their school pins. REMEMBER you help your athletes to win by attending their exercises and showing your appreciation of their efforts. The postponed meet to be played next Tuesday morning will merit a large attendance. THE publishers of the Annual need the services of your purse as well as of your good will, and are still anxious to add your name to their list of subscribers at one dollar a copy. There good work merits assistance. Now that almost everyone is kindly acting Polonius to Laertes of the graduating class, it may not be out of place to apply to the class orators the injunction of the preacher's wife who every Sunday morning admonished her husband with "John, be short, be short!" ONE of the college journals, in complaining of the death of college enterprise in its school, consoles itself with the fact that, as most of its students are farmers' boys, they do not care to enter the field day sports because when they get home their "field sports" will bring evil sufficient unto the day. The new departure of the JOURNAL which may aptly be termed an intelligence bureau, is for the good of the school and of all the students. In order to make it profitable to the needy, every one should feel himself entirely free to use it for the purposes intended Employment secured for the needy, earnest student oft times starts the career of a great man. For our athletes, the timely rain of last Saturday was a fortunate occurrence. They had a practical illustration of the powers and skill of their antagonists, and if they profit by the knowledge, will lose no time in practicing to perfect themselves for the final test. K. U boys are not made of different clay from other Kansas boys, and in order to win must endure the pain of increasing drill and preparation. THE change in the time of JOURNAL elections which was made this week is for the purpose of getting a complete staff to begin the next term's work on time. This will bring the time for the next election of officers and staff to Wednesday, May 31. The meeting has been called for one o'clock, because at that hour more can attend than at any other. As it is very important that the officers for the ensuing year be men of ability and industry, every share holder should make it a point to be present at this meeting, and cast his vote for a solid staff. We want men fit for the work, and not men to represent a clique; and to secure them we must look to nothing but their merits for the positions. Let all assemble in the chapel promptly at one o'clock on next Wednesday, and the meeting can be over in a very short time. HORACE E. SCUDDER. Prof. Horace E. Scudder, of Boston, who will speak at the University during commencement week, is as yet barely 55 years old, and comes from a family which has achieved considerable prominence. One brother has won distinction by his work in entomology, and another by a strong career as a missionary in southern India. Mr.Scudder attended Williams college, and when he graduated in 1858, wished to follow an academic life. There was no opportunity in his own college, however, and after a year's desultory study at home, he went to New York,where he had private pupils for three years, and occupied what leisure he found by trying experiments in literature. The interest which he took in some children led him to write stories for their birthdays. These stories passed from hand to hand in manuscript, and in 1862 Mr. Scudder collected them into a book which was published under the title of "Seven Little People and Their Friends." Not long after this publication he returned to Boston, with the purpose of devoting himself exclusively to literature. After bringing out a second book, Dream Life, he published The Life and Letters of David Coit Scudder, his missionary brother. This book was consigned to the new firm of Hurd & Houghton, and became one of their earliest issues. Mr. Scudder soon became a literary aide to this house, when the Riverside Magazine for Young People was projected it was given into his charge. He edited the magazine for four years of its life, and from some of his contributions made a third volume for Young People, Stories of My Attic. He was one of the writers on Bryant and Gray's History of the United States, and has published a School History, and also a short History of the United States. He published a volume of essays, Men and Letters. He was married in 1873, and has since that time made his home in Cambridge. In June, 1890 he became editor of the Atlantic Monthly. THE plan of forming an orotorial association to include all colloges of the state, as was suggested by a communication in last week's JOURNAL, is one which seems a very good one. All will admit that under the present system, the program of the state contest is entirely too long, and that some deserving schools of the state are at present excluded from the contests. These excluded schools should be given an opportunity to enter the association, as they have men well able to cope with the best now in the association, and, if admitted, would undoubtedly work for the best interests of oratory and education in Kansas. To admit these under the present arrangement is altogether out of the question. By arranging the schools in convenient groups of four or five, and making three, or possibly four groups in the state, all deserving schools could be included in the contests and the programs would be vastly pleasanter than at present. The three groups could then contest for the best orator to send to the interstate contest. In order to win in the inter-state contest it is necessary to send the very best orator, and for that reason we must include all sources of merit. THE last number of Seminary Notes for this year, issued last week, contains a number of very interesting papers on some Kensas institutions and history. These studies of the present and past history of our state's affairs are in the line of much important addition to knowledge through the efforts of our school, and should be appreciated as such. Baker University has made application to the war department for the detail of a U. S. army officer to that institution for the purpose of developing the latent military capabilities of its students. K. S. U. might do we'll to follow suit. It would be no expense to the University to have an army officer thus detailed, and might be of some benefit to the school. The old idealism, with its dark heroine and its light heroine, its black villain and its resplendant hero, has its dangers. It may make the real world look very dingy, common every day duties very trifling, it may put us out of joint with the things around us; but the modern realism hies open to the very same charges,—though it brings about these results in a very different way,—and perhaps to others besides. All this inspection and introspection, this analysis of ourselves and others, will it not make us morbid? OUR STUDY WINDOW. The other evening I had a visit from an old friend, a doctor, who, in spite of his professional cares, keeps up his interest in and acquaintance with current literary movements. We were commenting on the tendency to write up everything and everybody, and I was remarking on a physician's opportunity for observing human nature, and the queer characters he must become acquainted with. "Queer characters?" said the doctor, "Yes, of course. A novelist who would study medicine and practice for a few years would be well repaid for the time spent by the knowledge of human nature he would gain. And that reminds me of a fellow I knew or thought I knew when I was a medical student in New York city. It was a pretty hard pull for me to get through on the money I had, and, I was living way up in the fifth story of an old house in a discouraged part of town, though I oughtn't to call it discouraged either, for the people about there had more hopes than any thing else. "One night I was running up the stairs in the dark, and as I turned the corner I bumped against an unexpected corner so heavily that he sat right down on the steps. I struck a match to see what the state of affairs was. The man sat there looking before him in a dazed sort of way,'and responded mechanically to my apologies, saying.'It's no matter. MaybeI can make use of it.' I recognized him as the man I had seen several times coming from the room across from mine. $ I didn't know what his business was, but I couldn't imagine what use he could make of being run into and knocked down on the stairs. Partly because I was curious, and partly because I was lonely and wanted some one to talk to, I asked him to come up to my room with me. "Poverty does away with a deal of etiquette. The cards we exchanged as we sat before a soft-coal fire, crackling in a rusty little stove, were brief statements of our present condition and future prospects. My neighbor had literary aspirations and was willing enough to talk about them; but though we met often after this, and not infrequently spent an hour or two together at night, talking and munching bread and salt fist, which formed my staple [articles of diet in those days, he never alluded to his past. He listened almost eagerly, however, to my talk of my home and family, my stories of this or that adventure, but always with a queer sort of an expression on his face, as though his interest lay not in what I was saying, but in what he expected I was going to say. Sometimes he talked about his work, perhaps enthusiastically, perhaps disprovingly, but when the former, he made it seem so fascinating, with its close analytical study of human nature, that I caught the infection and began scribbling myself. "Poor old Masterson! One evening, when I came in, I found a letter on my table addressed in his writing. I smiled a little at his vehement appeal to me to forget all he had ever said about literature. He begged me by all that was good and holy to keep from his way by looking at men. 'Masterson's in the dumps again,' thought I, but as I read, my face sobered. His story was written there, simply and in short space. From a boy he had been given to dramatizing everything which occurred to him, until he came to look at events only,with regard to their literary value. Three years before he had been brought back to the world of reality by his love for a woman whom he afterward married. A little while he felt and lived for himself and her. Then she died, and even in the midst of his overwhelming sorrow, he found himself calculating as to how much this grief would increase his power as a writer—making capital out of his wife's death. Since then his old attitude of mind and his horror of it had been continually growing upon him. The letter ended abruptly. 'What a fine story my life would make! God —' "Poor old Masterson! I see him now as I saw him the last time, lying stiff and lifeless with a bullet-hole in his forehead." Science Club. At the regular meeting held last Thursday day afternoon, Prof. Kellogg discussed in a very interesting manner "A New Seat of Science." The Leland Stanford University is situated on the same peninsula as San Francisco, some distance south of that city. It is on the east side of a range of high hills or mountains that rise 3,000 to 4,000 feet above it. The land begins to rise immediately behind the university campus, and there is a steady upgrade to the top of the range. Along the very summit there is a grove of great Sequoya trees. The climatic conditions are very peculiar at Leland Stanford, and there are special opportunities for studying the flora of different altitudes, at points not far apart. There is also a marine laboratory on the main coast further south. The methods of teaching science at this University are thoroughly new and very much inductive in character. Prof. Comstock has introduced methods of his own, that seem destined to work a revolution in the teachings of biology. The paper was discussed by Profs. Williston, Sievens and others. Mr. E. C. Case, in a review of recent progress in geology, spoke of the recent outbreak in geological circles against the autocratic methods of the U. S. Geological Survey. There seems to be disposition among geologists to form opinions and to stick to them, even if their opinions do not agree with those of the Solons aforesaid. Mr. I. R. Rothrock received a number of recent articles on chemistry. Prof. Bailey exhibited a blanket from Central America, that is made from a single piece of the bark of the India rubber tree. Most of the members of the Science Club are in favor of the change that has been made in the hour for holding the meetings. By holding these meetings on Thursday afternoon, Friday evening is left free for those who have other engagements at that time. This is the last meeting of the term before the annual meeting, at which the work of the entire year will be reviewed in a series of original papers.

The Beacon mentions the fact that Dr Quayle has received another degree. This time it is M. A. C. R. C. W. F. C. A. C. E. Hiram W. Sibley, of Rochester, N. Y., has given $50,000 to Cornell to build and equip. The Sibley College of Electrical Engineering. Bates College, in Maine, contemplates erecting a memorial library to the late James G. Blaire, to cost $150,000. He was one of its directors.-The Cynic. Chicago University is attempting to combine all the medical schools of Chicago into one great medical college that shall rival the best European institution — Buchteil. Leland Stanford, Jr., recently defeated the University of California in a joint debate on the question: Resolved. That the United States annex Hawaii. Stanford had the negative. Professor Harris, of Cambridge, Mass., is reported to have discovered in a convent on Mount Sinai a Palimpsest, containing the complete and original text of the four gospels. The reported discovery has caused a sensation among Bible scholars — University Chronicle. A decision of the courts of Iowa was rendered last week, ordering the state university to admit a student who had been expelled from Cornell college in Iowa. The court held that the rule of comity existing between the colleges of the United States, by which students expelled from one college would not be admitted to another, was right, but that the student before being dismissed, must be given due notice of the charges against him, which was not done in this case. Two hundred enthusiastic students of Leland Stanford have each given $2.50 toward the construction of a "noise-making machine," to be used at the next athletic contest between Leland Stanford and the University of California. It is to be a monster horn, worked by a steam blower, and made of galvanized iron. It is to be fifty feet in length, with a diameter of ten feet, and will have a thirty-two horse-power boiler.-Ex. The only legitimate way for students to make noise is by "lung-power." Such barbaric instruments as horns and steam-whistles, disgrace the college which permits their use. William McDonald, formerly dean of the Department of Music, who graduated from Harvard with honor in the class of '92, and has held a position in the faculty of the Worcester Polytechnic Institute during the past year, has been called to the chair of History at Bowdoin College, Maine.
