Prof. P. K. Dillenbeck has been for four sessions instructor in the science and art of Elocution and Oratory in Kentucky University. He has proved himself a master in his office. The students have made admirable progress under his instruction and drill. Prof. Dillenbeck thoroughly understands his task. He is remarkable for the aptness of his teaching, his skill in training students, in the success which attends his work and in the general industry and diligence he shows as a teacher. We regret very much that we cannot keep him here. CHAS LOUIS LOOS President Kentucky University Lexington, Ky.

From Mrs. Mary Cecil Cantrell, Kentucky, Executive Committee and at large of the Board of Lady Managers of the World's Columbian Exposition:
"It becomes an unqualified pleasure for me to commend to any people or audience Prof. Preston K Dillenbeck, both as a gentleman and a thorough master of the twin arts of interpretation and expression. His method in both teaching and delivering conforms so faithfully to nature that it scarcely seems art at all. All the delicate shadings of thought and sentiment are so deftly rendered that to attuned ears all criticism becomes only a synonym for praise."

THE GREAT number of partles given every week mark a tendency toward too great development of the social interests among students. Too much amusement not only keeps the student from his work, and thus thwartes the purpose for which he attends the University, but so satiates the desire for pleasure that it loses its keenness. Too many late hours are not good for the moral or the physical health.
THE ATHLETIC Association should adopt some means of preventing such disgusting exhibitions in the grand stand of the desire to gamble on the result of the game. Several disreputable characters went about the grand stand, crying offers to bet on their favorite teams, and it is very probable that considerable money did change hands. It is within the power of the Association to suppress this abuse; and it should by all means do so.
THE BAKER-K. U. foot ball game has been played and we have been fairly defeated. The teams were very well matched, and the game was well played. But the visitors and the K. U. students showed by their conduct during and after the game that the animosity long supposed to exist between the two schools is not as strong as we have been led to believe. We expect to meet Baker again on the 7 on November, and though we hope to win the game, we hope the same good feeling may continue to exist.
A FEEBLE effort is being made by a few of the Seniors to get the senior class to petition the Faculty to follow the example of eastern universities in obtaining some eminent speaker to deliver an address in place of the old-fashioned Commencement exercises. Such an address would certainly be of far greater value than the papers usually read by memberr of the graduating class. At the latter end of their last year in the University, the students have not time to write something of real value, nor under our present system of training is it probable that they would be able to deliver a good paper creditably if they had it. Almost any man of good ability and large experience can give the graduate an insight into the problems which every successful man must solve that will be infinitely more valuable than the hypotheses of some as yet inexperienced student. If the Seniors take hold of the question with the energy its importance should command and lay their petition before the authorities in time, success will crown their efforts; but if the effort consists of a little desultory talk, we will again have the pleasure of listening to papers which benefit only those who write them.

NEXT WEEK the Lecture Bureau will be ready to announce the course to be offered to the public, and to offer the tickets for sale. Though the course will connsist of but six numbers, it will be the best ever offered in Lawrence, and no one who cares for the best music and lectures should fail to purchase a ticket as soon as possible. The tickets are limited in number and low in price—only two dollars for the course. Buy a ticket and hear something good.
THERE is a very objectionable lack of formality in the manners of the majority of the K. U. students. It is very common to hear the free, frank manner of the Western people lauded to the skies, and it is worthy of commendation, but it is far worse to cultivate too free than too formal manners. Wherever the freedom approaches undue familiarity and redress it is dangerous. The young lady who permits herself to be called by her christian name at all times and in all places soon loses a considerable portion of the honor and respect that form a part of every true ladie's birthright; and the young man who thus addresses her lacks good breeding. Freedom and care of address are to be cultivated provided they keep safely within the limits of courtesy.
ORDINARILY WHOEVER is free from the more vicious habits is said to have good morals, and little attention is given to the building of these high ideals which characterize the truly moral. If a man does not drink and gamble his ethics are thought good, and little attention, in general, given to the minor habits which really show the character. According to the opinions that obtain at present, any one who will not greet all his acquaintances with the same coarse freedom is considered a prig and a fit subject for ridicule. Frankness and cordiality are good in themselves, but when abused they are far more pernicious then too great reserve. Several of the chapel talks this year have touched upon these subjects very forcibly, but, as a rule, those who need most to hear them are not resent.

Very flattering reports are received from Mr. E.C.Hickey,'93, in regard to his school in Chapman, Kansas. He has organized a foot team in the school which is defeating everything in that section of the country. It will not be many years before the Academies and High Schools of Kansas will be sending trained athletes to K.U.just as Exeter does to Harvard, and Andover does to Yale.
Walter Dyer of Wichita stopped over in Lawrence last Friday, on his way home from the World's Exposition, to visit his Alma Mater and renew old acquaintances. Walt was left half back on the first foot-ball team K.U. ever had, and while here was the fastest sprinter in school. He is a member of Phi Kappa Psi,and is at present occupying a prominent position in one of the leading banks of Wichita.
The sidewalk on the south side of North College grounds is simple abominable. When put down it was intended for a cinder walk, but the rains have washed most of the cinders away, leaving it in a wretched condition. The use of the walk is consequently made very dangerous, and sprained ankles, and hard falls, are very common to those using it. Something should be done to obviate this evil before some one is seriously injured.
Charles Spencer is home from Leadville for a few days.
The fare to Kansas City Saturday will be one fare for the round trip. Let everybody go to cheer our team to victory.

The State Convention of Young Womens' Christian Associations will hold its first meeting Friday morning at 10 o'clock. In the evening the Convention address will be delivered by Pres. Gates of Iowa College, pronounced by many to be one of the brightest men in the west. It will undoubtedly be an address which no student can afford to miss. Friday evening at the Congregational Church.
At the meeting of the building committee of the Board of Regents last Saturday morning it was decided to tunnel through the hill from the engine room to the library building and chancellor's residence, to lay steam pipes for the heating of those buildings. The tunnel will run west through Snow Hall to Mississippi street, and then from Mississippi street through the hill to the library building. The total cost of this work will be about $2500.
The Music Club, an organization composed of University professors and students, and town people, met a week from last Tuesday in Mrs. Dunlap's music room and formed a permanent organization. After electing officers, a splendid musical program was rendered. Perhaps the best received numbers during the evening were the three violin solos by Miss Hazel Groen, an accomplished young lady from Ft. Scott, who is visiting her cousin, Miss Madge Schaum. Miss Groen is the favorite pupil of Macielinski of Kansas City, and has remarkable talent.

The Chancellor's Reception.
On last Friday evening, from 8 to 11, Chancelor and Mrs. Snow gave their annual reception in Snow Hall to the Professors and students connected with the University. The guests were received by Chancellor and Mrs. Snow, assisted by a committee of young ladies prominent in University life. To add to the charms of the evening, Buch's orchestra delighted the guests by its pretty music.
The reception rooms were crowded until quite late, and from the merry laughter, the animated conversation, and general good will which prevailed, no higher compliment can be paid the perfect entertainers than that each and all had a perfect evening, and left the reception halls with a kindlier feeling toward Professors and fellow students. This custom of extending annual receptions to the students is one of the most commendable features of University social life. Here all factionism is forgotten, party politics are laid aside, petty grievances buried by those closer ties which bind Professors and students together; the best of fellowship exists, while each student knows that here he stands on equal social footing with his fellow. The Chancellor's reception is a thing of the past, but the influence of an evening so delightfully spent cannot help but be felt throughout the entire year.
Frank Daniels Coming.
Everybody knows Frank Daniels, and no one heralds with any more pleasure the event of his engagement at the opera house Friday evening than the students of the University. Students are good patrons of good entertainments, and Frank Daniels and his big comedy company will make of the famous extravaganza, "Little Puck," not only a good entertainment, but one of the events of the season. In spite of the slight advance in prices, seats have sold rapidly and one of the largest houses of the season is assured. In speaking of Daniels the Detroit Free Press says:
"Daniels is always amusing. His very personality compels laughter. The comical awkwardness of his efforts to manipulate a cigar is highly diverting, and his larger strokes in the funny way are irresistable." Secure seats at once.

LITERARY.
Types of College Men.
There is a great difference in people. This is probably no new idea to most of us; but we scarcely ever stop to pick out the differences. These differences divide mankind into classes; and there are almost as many different classes, or types, as there are colors among cats, which is saying a good deal. Even among the students one will find as distinct types as among people in the outer world.
One of the common types is the student who is limited in financial resources, but wears good clothes, studies moderately hard, has his lessons as a rule, and spends his time when not at work reading some well known author, or keeping posted concerning the events of the day. His room is comfortable, and his few standard books are in plain sight on the shelves. This student is the one who will probably make a success when he gets out in the world, for he has that "rustle" which always comes out ahead in the end.
The smallest class is composed of the "grinds," who have no thought but for the lessons of the morrow. The grind goes to classes as regularly as clockwork, and as soon as recitation hours are over, he is at work, learning by heart all that there is in the text. This person rarely ever goes outside of his books for information, for he seems to have an idea that all the knowledge in the world is enclosed within the covers of his few school books. He is a harmless person, and may turn out to be of some great use in the world.
A distant relation of the grind's, but without his good points, is the "grade-one student," who lives for his grades. You will see this student always talking to the instructor after the recitation. He waits and walks down the hill with some of his professors. In fact, about all the real work that he does consists in "working the Profs." Some times he becomes quite an adept in this art, and manages to impress many of his instructors with his great
ability. He will even resort to hard study, if that is the only course left him, by which he can get a "I." After the examinations are over, your grade-one student will go about the halls for a day or so and ask every one that he meets: "What did you get in German," or "in English," or "on your themes?" and when the answer is given, the grade-one student will offer the information that he has a "one."
Another type is, in the modern vernacular, the "cheap sport." This gentleman may be as limited to cash as the first type mentioned, but he will wear his "ice cream" trousers (always "creased") and his dark, tailor-made coat in spite of all the stringency of the money market; and sometimes you can add to his costume a pair of russet shoes, and gloves carried in the hand—never worn, possibly for economy's sake. His hair is often parted in the middle and combed down over his temples. His room is always in disorder, and among the papers and books on his table you will find one or two "Albatross Novels," and probably several other works by equally interesting writers. These are his text books, and he regulates his actions in accordance with the very valuable precepts set down in their pages. As a consequence, he is an habitual flirt. He thinks all young ladies of no consequence unless he can get up a heart-breaking flirtation with them, and is seldom seen with any lady that does not belong to this very numerous class. He carries on his flirtation in public, thinking that they will be of general interest to other people, and proud of the fact that he is so popular. Such men have made something of themselves in later life, but not very often. The odds are greatly against them.
There is occasionally a luxurious student, whom you will generally find in his warm room, reclining in a big arm-chair, dreamily smoking a pipe of choice tobacco, and possibly, in a listless way, going over his lessons for the next day. He has a few books on his shelves, and among these you are very likely to find worn copies of Byron or Burns and the fanciful writinge of Ik. Marvel.
The University Courier.

Sometimes your luxurious student will rouse himself, and work hard and faithfully for a time; but after his task is over, he will go back to his arm-chair and his pipe, and take up "Dream Life," or read a canto of "Don Juan." This gentleman intends to get all out of life that he can, according to his ideas; and you will nearly always find him the same luxury-loving man all through life.
The college politician is a peculiar creature. He gives most of his attention to wire-pulling, and sometimes seeks the advancement of others than himself. He is frequently quite shrewed, and can influence his circle of admirers, cultivate animosities, or soften an afront with as much ease as if he were a congressman from our own sunflower state. The college politician is very likely to continue in his chosen vocation, and will probably attain the enviable position of ward boss or local manager for some political master.
However, he is a harmless creature, and only interferes with some other aspiring individual of his own class.
These are only a few of the types we can see around us, and it would be very interesting to make a study of this subject: for mankind is the greatest study we have.

The Nebraskan contains a short article against the literary college magazine. The idea seems to be that the magazine has no place among college publications. The writer appears to think that the ordinary weekly paper, which is devoted mainly to matters of local interest, is all that is needed in a progressive institution. If that is so, how does the writer account for the fact that our college magazines often outlive several weekly or daily publications in the same institution?

Denver, 24; K. S. U., 10.
Fully 5000 people saw D. A. C. reverse the majority of last year's game in one of the most exciting games of the season. A year ago the tune of 20 to 6 turned a certain day to crimson, but now it stands cherry black—24 to 10. The game was marked by the inate desire of Mr. Lewis to keep D. A. C.'s record unsullied, and the utter refusal of the Denver team to obey the rulings of Mr. Davis.
The work of the 'Varsity line was fair, but right guard and tackle need especial coaching. The play of all the backs was good, Johnson's field kicking deserving especial mention. The interference was weak, but the fierce and sure tackling brought many a cheer from the bleachers. Fouts, Bohn, and Mills played the game for Denver, aided by almost perfect interference.
THE GAME.
K. U. takes ball and Denver, goal. K. U. opens with the flying wedge for 5 yards, but loses on downs. Bohn goes around right end for 60 yards before Shepard tackles. Field gains 8 yards; Ponts is tackled behind the line by Williamson, and the ball goes to K.U. Johnson punts low and is forced to make a safety. Score, D.A.C.,2; K.U., o. Bohn retires with a broken shoulder, and Earnest replaces him.
K. U. lines up on their 25-yard line and, after slight gains, Johnson punts for 37 yards; Shepard gets the ball and scores touch-down. Matteson misses an easy goal. Score, Denver, 2; K. U., 4.
Mills makes 10 yards on the wedge; Earnest
goes around left end for 5 yards. Mills punts, and Denver holds the ball on our 20-yard line. D.A.C.loses 5 yards on offside play,and soon after,the ball. Johnson punts 40 yards; Steinberger gets the ball. Shellenberger loses 8 yards. Champlin goes 25 yards on right end; Matterson loses 2 yards on left tackle,and Johnson tries for field goal. The referee decides it was a punt, and no count is allowed. Field punts for 60 yards, and K.U. gets the ball, only to lose it on downs. After repeated gains, Blackburn goes through right tackle for a touch-down. Field misses goal. Score,Denver,6;K.,4.
K. U. and Denver both lose on downs. Johnson punts, Mills returns, and Adams scores a touch-down. Field kicked goal. Denver, 12; K.U.,4.
SECOND HALF.
Denver misses; Mills punts and gains 15 yards on Johnson's return. Pfouts goes through right tackle for 80 yards and a touchdown. Field kicked goal. Denver, 18; K. U. 4. Johnson punts; Field makes a touch-back. D.A.C. loses on downs. Field gains 10 yards on Johnson's punt. Mills punts, and Harvey gets Johnson's return; after repeated gains, Shellenbarker scores a touch-down. Matteson kicks goal. Score, D. A. C., 18; K. U., 10. Denver loses the ball on a punt, but gains it on four downs. Shellenbarker downs Ellis so hard that he is taken from the field. Cash relieves him. D. A. C., by rapid play and a 35- yard run by Pfouts, scores a touch-down. Field kicks goal. Score, D. A. C., 24; K. U., 10. Only eight minutes remained, and the game was called on account of darkness.
Score, D. A. C., 24; K. U., 10.

Nebraska plays D. A. C. at Denver Saturday.
At last the Fairmount Park Association of K. C. have perfected arrangements with the Chicago Athletic Club and K.U. for a game on November 11th. The fact that the league game between Missouri and Nebraska was scheduled on that date seemed to make it impossible to secure a satisfactory compromise. But Thursday morning Manager Moody received word that Nebraska and Missouri had consented to play at St. Joe, thus leaving us a clear field. The game promises to be one of the best of the season, perhaps only excelled by the game with Ann Arbor. C.A.C. has one of the strongest teams in the Northwest, defeating Denver Athletic 6 to o,and last Saturday Illinois went down before her to the tune of 10 to 4. The management is to be congratulated on the quality of the games selected for the 'Varsity.
Next Saturday we play Iowa at Kansas City, and the fact that every student should be present on Main Street that day cannot be emphasized too strongly. The K. C. Star, in its write-up, lays great stress on our inability to make ourselves heard, and not without cause. In the Baker game at times some sort of unison would be kept, and B. U.'s gutteral "Hoorah! Hoorah!" would be found wanting; but, on the whole, our much talked of college spirit and enthusiasm was at a decidedly low ebb. The fact that the 'Varsity was playing an awfully up-hill game seemed to make no difference. In the coming game, let the team have the united support of the bleachers, and a hearty support at that. Don't wait for the Ann Arbor game, but turn out Saturday. A mass meeting of the students to select time beaters for the University would most certainly be in order. Let the populace of Kansas City know that the jolly gay students still have the unbounded faith and belief in this year's 'Varsity, even though they were so unfortunate as to score more points on Denver's professional aggregation than the combined scores of C. A. C., Northwestern University, and M. S. U.
You are due at Kansas City next Saturday.
The K. C. alumni of K. S. U. held a meeting Tuesday night for the purpose of taking steps toward properly receiving the 'Varsity next Saturday.—K. C. Journal.
Last Saturday's games: Minnesota 34, Ann Arbor 20; Princeton 76, Wesleyan o; Harvard 58, Brown o; U. of P. 82; LaFayette o; Yale 26, West Point o; Butler 36, Indiana University o; Chicago Athletic 10, University of Illinois 4; Williams 10, Cornell 10.
And again the fact that he is a hired coach is a falsity from the start. Prof. Shepard has sworn before a notary his denial of the charge of N. U. And this document, together with the official signatures of Chancellor Snow, Registrar Templin, and Manager R. K. Moody, will soon silence the howl from the North. Selah.
Second Eleven, 28; K. C. High School, O.
Constant practice with the 'Varsity has begun to tell on the second eleven. Saturday's game was marked by their steady team work and offensive plays. For the visitors, Barbour and Riese made good gains; but the tackling and interference was very poor. Kutz, Higgins, Wilson, and McMurray made excellent runs, aided by good interference. Umpire, Coleman,'93; referee, Buchan,'94.
Baker, 10; N. S. U., 10.
Crawford has played the Yale trick of disparaging his team to perfection on our Metododist neighbors. For a more confident team never existed than B. U. before the Nebraska game. Baker made the first touch-down on a 65 yard run by Heller. Thomas kicked goal. N.S.U.gains 60 yards on the checkerboard play; Yont goes around the end for 25 more, and Fleppin bucks center for touch-down. Crawford missed goal. In the second half, N.S.U.made a touch-down and goal, and Baker a touch-down. Time was called with the ball in Baker's territory. Score, B. U., 10; N.S. U., 10.
On Monday, Baker defeated Doane College 10 to 0.

Show your enthusiasm by attending the Kansas-Iowa foot-ball game in Kansas City on next Saturday.
The second eleven plays the Ottawa team at Ottawa Saturday, November 4th. Keep up your record, boys.
Nebraska's shrill shriek of protest against Prof. Shepard amuses the most suspicious. The fact that Alvin W. Shepard is a matriculated student at K.U., attending four lectures a week, is vouched for by the Registrar and the Chancellor.
DOES HE WANT K. U. VOTES?
Sheriff Hindman Gives the Baker Team $25 for Defeating the K. U. Team.
It is commonly reported and not denied by his friends that Sheriff Hindman gave $25 of the $100 which he won on the last Baker-K. U. game to the Baker team. What is the cause of this unusual spirit of generosity? Was it pure devotion and loyalty to the cause of Baker athletics, or was it a bid for the votes of the Methodist academy?
If it was devotion to Baker athletics, that probably accounts for the numerous arrests of students during the celebration of Baker defeats last year. If it was generosity pure and simple, why did not this gentleman show it by giving a part of the $150 which he won on K. U.'s team last year to the athletic association? But he did not give the boys a cent.
No: magnanimity never prompted him for a moment, but the prospects of votes for re-election tempted his purse-strings to fly open to the promptings of liberality.
We do not believe any loyal friend of the University would treat us in this manner and we are also sure that this protege of Baker will not and should not get a vote among the professors or students of the University.

Students' Attention!------it becomes an unqualified pleasure for me to commend to any people or audience Prof. Preston K. Dillenbeck, both as a gentleman and a thorough master of the twin arts of interpretation and expression. His method in both teaching and delivering conforms so faithfully to nature that it scarcely seems art at all. All the delicate shadings of thought and sentiment are so deftly rendered that to attuned ears all criticism becomes only a synonym for praise."
A NEW BARBER SHOP, with Familiar Faces.
The finest Tonsorial Parlors in the state, and operated by three of the greatest experts that Lawrence has ever seen. am especially catering for the college trade, and money has been spent with a lavish hand, to make it the most popular resort of its kind in the city. If you want a correct haircut or a shave lighter than a fairy's tread, go to the shop where every barber is an artist.

He swayed the audience at will, even moving them to tears by his action and pathos.—K. C.Journal PERSONAL LETTERS AND TESTIMONIALS.
Prof. P. K. Dillenbeck has been for four sessions instructor in the science and art of Elocution and Oratory in Kentucky University. He has proved himself a master in his office. The students have made admirable progress under his instruction and drill. Prof. Dillenbeck thoroughly understands his task. He is remarkable for the aptness of his teaching, his skill in training students, in the success which attends his work and in the general industry and diligence he shows as a teacher. We regret very much that we cannot keep him here.

IT TAKES money to publish the Courier: in order to get money, we must get advertisements; in order to get advertisements, our advertisers must receive the patronage of the students: hence, if you wish the Courier to succeed, patronize its advertisers.
It is probable that the students will get tired of continual harping about the lack of class spirit, and college spirit as well, but if they only get so tired that they will do something, we will be satisfied. It is all right to keep your enthusiasm within bounds, but it is not well to bury it entirely unless it is dead. The only evidence yet of class spirit consists of a few bits of ribbon worn by some of the most enthusiastic. It isn't necessary to do something so wonderful that all the world will stand agap, but do, for pity's sake, let the people know that we are alive.
THE ABILENE Chronicle comments very favorably on Prof. Williston's article in the first issue of the Courier, regarding the establishment of a School of Medicine in connection with the University. If the other Kansas papers would follow the Chronicle's example, it would not be long until the project would assume a tangible form. Kansas cannot afford to allow her medical students to go out side of the state for instruction when it can just as well be furnished at home.
At last there is some prospect of the Physics and Electrical Engineering Building becoming more than a rumor. The bids will be opened on the 8th inst., and it is expected that the work will begin at once. With the facilities with which the University will possess when this building is completed, and with the illustrious men who are now at its head, the School of Engineering ought in a short time to acquire a rank equal to that of any other similar school in the United States. Thus far K. U. has reason to be proud of the engineers it has graduated, and time will certainly find many of the most honored names in the engineering professions on the roll of our alumni. It is but a few years since all branches of engineering were looked upon as trades, but it is fast being recognized that more study and as high qualifications are required of the successful engineer than of men in many other professions; and nearly all of the better Universities are doing their utmost to supply the demand for high class instruction in their engineering schools. It should offer the friends of the University of Kansas much satisfaction to contemplate that in this respect, too, she is fully abreast with her sister institutions.

The University Courier.
THE EDITORIAL staff of the UNIVERSITY COURIER wish to take this early opportunity of refuting the article relative to Sheriff Hindman, published in the last issue of the COURIER. It has been definitely determined that Sheriff Hindman has always in the past been very friendly toward the University and her interests, and has, by contributions, repeatedly assisted University Athletics. Such being the case, the sheriff has every right in the wide world to assist any athletic, or any other interest of any or all Colleges or Universities in the state. The publication of the article was uncalled for; neither is it the policy of the COURIER to meddle with municipal, county, State, or national politics, and this article unfortunately crept into the columns of the COURIER without the knowledge of the editorial staff. The reparation in a case of this kind is but slight, nevertheless the COURIER is willing to do all it can to remedy the injury done by making an open statement of the facts.
ONE of the most valuable of our exchanges is a little magazine entitled University Extension, a monthly "devoted to the interests of popular education." The rapid development of that form of education exemplified in the University Extension and the Chautauqua is one of the best indices of our advancing civilization, and this journal contains a brief but clear synopsis of the work done by the American Society for the Extension of University Teaching, and of the work of the same kind being done in England. In many respects the University Extension movement is of great benefit to our Universities: is creates a taste for higher education, and thus leads many people to attend who would never have done so otherwise; but, on the other hand, it injures the university by taking from it the time and energy of its professors. Much help is given to a large number of people who cannot afford to attend the University; but it can at best give them only a smattering of the subjects offered. It is true that "A little learning is a dangerous thing;" but it is certainly better than none at all.
THE HABITS you form here will in all probability remain throughout your life; hence occasional self examination, carried on in a critical business like way may be of great service to you. If you find that you are living without system you had better plan to remedy the defect at once. If you study only when you feel like it you are armed with an excellent excuse for leaving your work undone; but unfortunately no one but yourself will accept such an excuse. If you work hard and take exercise only when you have time, broken health will remind you that you lack system.
The management of the Baker foot-ball team acts like the little boy who tries to prove to the satisfaction of his mother that he hasn't been stealing jam while his face is smeared with that dainty. The management of the K. U. team offered to accept any two men from Kansas City as referee and umpire for the game which should have been played at Baldwin on November 7, but the Baker managent refused to play unless some man who was known to be prejudiced in their favor could be secured for one of these places. The Hill brothers, of Missouri, were proposed because it was believed that the K. U. management did not know that Taylor had been their coach; and, hence, that they were prejudiced in Baker's favor. In fact the Baker management plainly showed that it did not want to play the game. The Baker people want to quit while ahead; yet, instead of admitting the fact, they seek to conceal it by bravado and questionable statements. Messrs. Markham, Taylor and several other model representatives of Baker came to Lawrence Tuesday evening avowedly to make arrangements with the K. U. management for a game in the near future, but really to give some color to their statements by attempting to "bluff" some one. They did not look for and did not want to find the K. U. management; they came to stand about the streets and make a show of themselves, and they fulfilled their disgraceful mission admirably. An honorable enemy deserves honorable treatment, but a bully deserves only contempt.

There is a growing dissatisfaction with our University yell. The main points raised in objection to it are that it is too short and is very hard on the throat. After yelling "Rock Chalk! Jay Hawk! K.U." for a few minutes, one becomes very hoarse and exhausted, and the noise produced is not what it should be in proportion to the effort. We can retain our old yell and have a new yell also. Most colleges have more than one yell, and K. U. should have another yell in addition to the present one. Rock Chalk is dear to every student and alumni of the University, but if it is not as good as the yells of our rival colleges, a new one should be improvised.
The University Republican club met at the court house last Wednesday evening and the following officers were elected: President, John Hogin; vice president, Wm. Brooks; secretary Howard Martindale; sargeant-at arms, Charles Armor; executive committee, John Steele and Geo. Ellis.

Prof. Williston went to Medicine Lodge last week to offer the testimony of an expert in a murder case. The mysterious disappearance of a certain man who is supposed to have been murdered, and the finding of the skeleton of a man near the spot where the murder was thought to have taken place, led to the arrest of two men. Professor Williston testified that the skeleton found was that of a man under thirty years of age, and as the man who had disappeared was about forty-five years old, the two men arrested were acquitted upon the strength of Prof. Williston's testimony.
Last Monday at one o'clock a mass meeting of the students was held in the chapel to select a man to lead the yelling at the foot-ball game was supposed would take place next day at Baker. Tom Franklin was unanimously elected to that position; but as the expected game did not take place, he did not have an opportunity to display his qualities as a yeller and leader. Chancellor Snow made a short speech on the apparent indifference which was shown by K.U. students at the game three weeks ago with Baker, and the students left the chapel with the determination that if yelling would win games, the foot-ball team of K.U. would meet with no more defeats in the future. Although at the Baker game, and the game with Iowa last Saturday, each K.U. admirer yelled himself hoarse as an individual, yet the yelling was not effective because the crowd was not organized for yelling together, but were scattered all over the field.

The Phi Psis have at last purchased their long talked of Chapter House, and are now the happy possessor of the old Bassett place which they bought last Saturday. The house is a large brick dwelling, containing rooms enough to accommodate fourteen boys, besides parlors, library, dining room and kitchen. The grounds are large and handsomely located, having a frontage on Louisiana of 200 feet, and running through to Indiana Street. The place is quite a valuable piece of property, and, with the improvements the boys expect to put upon it, it will be one of the finest places in Lawrence. Chapter Houses have been much talked of among the "frat boys" during the last few years, but this is the first permanent step in that direction.
There are two or three of the professors who habitually hold their classes from five to ten minutes over the hour. Besides being a waste of time on account of the students knowing that the time is up and consequently wishing to go and not listening to what is said, it causes them to be marked absent from their next class.
LITERARY.
Rita.
The deep shadows are creeping through the thickets and woods of a tangled Mexican forest, and it grows darker and darker as the florid faced sun sinks slowly behind the distant snow capped peaks of the Cordilleras.
A narrow path leads through the brush and thick undergrowth, and if we were to follow it for a short distance, we would come to one of those natural clearings or glades, made by some wild hurricane felling a giant tree, which has carried with it in its fall a number of younger trees and saplings. The glade is only a small space, hardly thirty paces long; but it seems like a big room after the closeness of the dense jungle.
At the end of the clearing, sitting on the trunk of a fallen tree, is a man clad in rough hunting clothes, which have been torn by the thorns and brambles in many places. A broad brimmed hat of native manufacture is on the ground in front of him, and a rifle is leaning against the tree by his side. His head is resting in his hands, and his whole attitude shows great weariness.
He sits in this position for sometime, but at last straightens up and looks about him. A lingering ray of sunlight shines on his face; and a bright red spot in his cheek and an unnatural brightness of his eyes show that he is in the clutches of the terrible Mexican fever.
As it grows dark, the hunter puts on his hat, and, taking his rifle, starts on his way. He follows the path very slowly for the light is getting uncertain and he is growing weaker and weaker. He is about to give up the struggle and stop where he is, when he sees the faint glimmer of a light through the trees. The sight puts new life into him, and he hurries as fast as he can towards the friendly gleam. He goes only a short distance when he comes to a small clearing and sees a hut at the farther side. He staggers painfully towards it, and finally reaches the door and knocks; but before it is opened, he sinks to the ground too weak to stand. The

door is opened, and a tall Indian looks out and sees the prostrate figure. The Indian picks up the hunter, and bears him inside.
The hut is merely that of some wood-cutters, and is as rough inside as out. The occupants are the Indian whom we have seen and his son and daughter. The father and son cut wood in the forest, and the girl tends to the primitive house-keeping.
The stranger is made as comfortable as possible, and is given some simple remedies to relieve the fever. The girl bathes his temples in cool water, and sits by his side for a long time watching over him.
For days and days the stranger lies there on his cot, hovering between life and death, now raving with the fever, now sleeping a sleep that gives no rest. All this time, while the father and son are out at work, the Mestizo girl is by the bed-side of the hunter, tending him with as gentle a hand as his own mother could have done.
It is a touching picture to see her so patiently watching over one whom she has never known. The cot is there on the floor in the center of the room. On it lies the sick man in a troubled sleep, his face pale, his lips dry and parched. By his side sits the Indian girl with her hand on his hot forehead. Her long black hair is hanging over her shoulders and reaches the floor. Her face has the natural beauty which her Spanish blood gives her mingled with the simplicity of the Indian, and gives her a simple sweetness of expression that we seldom see in the belles of our cities.
She watches him, she cares for him for weeks, until at last the fever leaves him one quiet day, and he falls into a calm sweet sleep. Then the girl knows that the fever has gone, that her patient is safe at last. She breathes a long sigh, bends over the sleeper and kisses so gently, so softly the brow of the man she has saved. Has the innocent heart of this Mestizo girl been touched by the sick man before her.
Time flies and the sick man grows stronger, the color comes back to his face; but he does not go. He lingers around the hut, spending
many happy hours and talking in the musical Indian tongue with Rita., as he has learned to call the Indian girl. Now and then he will think of friends far away, who have long ago given him up for lost; but he drives away such thoughts, and turns to the girl who is always by his side, and always looking with her soft dark eyes into his clear blue ones.
At last he feels that he must go—that time is too precious to stay longer. He packs up his bundle one day when Rita is not in the house. He could not tell just why he chooses this time to leave, but he feels that he would not like to have her with him at this time, and see him go away. He is afraid that he will not go if she was there. He opens the door and starts down the path. He has not gone far before a soft hand touches his, and two frightened eyes look questionly into his. He tells her that he must leave her, that dear friends are waiting for him and he can stay no longer. She is silent for a time, then the tears come to her eyes, she throws her brown arms around his neck, and kisses him once, only once, and disappears in the jungle.
Late in the Autumn months the hunter comes back one day,—back to the hut where the Mestizo girl saved him and loved him.
He knocks at the door of the hut. All is silent. No one answers. His heart sinks and his hand trembles as he knocks again; but still no one comes. He turns and meets the father coming up the path. His only question is: "Rita?" The old man's face grows sad, and he points to a giant tree, at whose foot is a little mound, and answers:
“Rita. Broken hearted.”
I put my arm around her waist, In a light and crowded hall,
But then 'twas perfectly proper For'twas at the junior ball.
I put my arm around her waist, As we wandered alone thro' the wood
And again'twas perfectly proper Because——she said I could.

Matteson received the following telegram from Jack Fillmore Sunday: "4-4. Get ourside referee and umpire. Nebraska will steal the game if she has either." Comment reserved until November 18th.
Last Saturday's games: Harvard 34, Cornell o; Princeton 4, U. of Penn. o; Worcester Polytechnic Institute 10, Trinity o; Dartsmouth 20, Williams o; Chicago Athletic 4, Pittsburg Athletic o.
The Courier, on the best of authority, stated last week that the Fairmont Park Association, of Kansas City, had perfected all arrangements for a game with the Chicago Athletic Club, and that Missouri and Nebraska had consented to play at St. Joe. This statement was somewhat premature, as far as Columbia was concerned, for she refuses to play at the latter place, even though Nebraska has consented. This refusal, of course, declares the game with C.A.C. off for the present. If possible, the game will be arranged later.
D. A.C., 4; Nebraska, 4.
Last Saturday's game, according to the Denver papers, was the most exciting ever played at Denver. The game was characterized by the pulling of the umpire and referee for their respective teams, and the large amount of slugging. Nebraska made a touch-down in the first half and Denver did the same in the last, but neither was able to kick goal.
The postponed game of the second eleven with Ottawa will be played next Saturday, November 11, at above-named place.
Monday evening Manager Moody received a telegram from Illinois, cancelling their date with K. S. U. on the 13th.I. S. U. will make no western trip this year on account of financial embarrassment.

on umpire. The fact that a disinterested person was the desired object, lays bare Baker's position in their choice of Mr. McVicar, whose past relations with K. S. U. are too well known to be discussed. Rumor has it that Thomas and Taylor were in very poor condition. Of this the Courier knows nothand cares less. Be that as it may, the straight forward bearing and the marked desire for impartiality shown by K. S. U. cannot help but carry conviction to every fair-minded person, and reflect great credit upon the University.
Championship. K. S.U., 35; I. S. U., 24.
K. S. U. again asserts her superiority over Iowa by her victory last Saturday afternoon at Exposition Park. The game was won strictly on its merits; for, although Iowa put up a much more steady and a better line game, she was unable to comprehend K.U.'s tactics.
K. U. took the lead in the start by scoring a goal from field kick in four minutes' play. In the last part of the first half, and all through the second, Iowa took a decided brace, and were very successful in preventing K. U. from making any large gains around the ends, Captain Elliot giving most of his attention to bucking the line.
It is difficult to make any comment on the individual work of the team, for, although the men played hard, unison was sadly lacking. The team was quite a stranger to Iowa's line plays, she in no instant attempting to make a hole to send her men through, but simply calling back both ends, and they, together with three backs, were hurled against the line, their superior weight enabling them to gain on almost every down.
The best tribute that can be given to Matteson is that he out-played himself; his tackling and interfering were of the highest order.
It must have been Steinberger's off-day at the end: his tackling was poor, and it seemed impossible for him to break up opposing interference. Piatt followed the ball well, and put up a good game at his new position. McMurray's first attempt was a decided success; there is lots of foot-ball in the youngster. Johnson's punting was very good.
Iowa made most of her plays through centers and guard. Aldrich, Rodger, and Van Ovsterhaut did all the tackling on the rush line Myer and Elliot made good runs, and did some fine tackling behind the line.
Score: K. S. U., 35; I. S. U., 24.
Teams played in following order:

Prof. P. K. Dillenbeck has been for four sessions instructor in the science and art of Elocution and Oratory in Kentucky University. He has proved himself a master in his office. The students have made admirable progress under his instruction and drill. Prof. Dillenbeck thoroughly understands his task. He is remarkable for the aptness of his teaching, his skill in training students, in the success which attends his work and in the general industry and diligence he shows as a teacher. We regret very much that we cannot keep him here. CHAS. LOUIS LOOS, President Kentucky University. Levi
From Mrs. Mary Cecil Cantrell, Kentucky, Executive Committee and at large of the Board of Lady Managers of the World's Columbian Exposition:
"It becomes an unqualified pleasure for me to commend to any people or audience Prof. Preston K Dillenbeck, both as a gentleman and a thorough master of the twin arts of interpretation and expression. His method in both teaching and delivering conforms so faithfully to nature that it scarcely seems art at all. All the delicate shadings of thought and sentiment are so deftly rendered that to attuned ears all criticism becomes only a synonym for praise."

A CENSUS of the University shows that fifty-five per cent of the students are members of some church. Eleven creeds are represented by one hundred and forty-four students, the Congregationalists leading, closely followed by the Methodists and Presbyterians. The Catholics, Lutherans and Quakers are each represented by one person.
"The man just and immovable of resolution," says Horace, "no terrors can appal. Neither the evil ardor of the people nor the face of a frowning tyrant, nor the great hand of fulminating Jove, can shake him from his determined purpose. Though the skies should crumble and the earth be dissolved, the ruins would strike him unterrified." Horace would have been a great man if he had written English. Had he lived until the present time he
would have modified the foregoing statement, and perhaps have finished thus: "His firm mind will bear him safe through every peril, until in an hour sacred to the gods of evil, he shall attempt to traverse a sidewalk builted by the hands of commissioners seeking to avoid their duty. Then shall the horrid terrors of his journey overcome his hitherto undaunted spirit, and his limbs through fear refusing to support their burden, he will sink. Never can mortal subdue the awful dangers of an ascent to the seat of learning, and never can he reach the abode of the Gods on high save by leaving Adams Street and skipping around the back way."
It is evident that the lack of activity in the classes and in the University life generally is being counteracted by the increased social activity. The number of parties is so great that we are inclined to believe that social activity is fast approaching, if it has not already reached the high degree at which it becomes injurious to the best interests of the students. It is hard to control our desires for pleasure of this kind, but like every other desire it is injurious when not restricted.
It has become fashionable in University society to go to parties at a very late hour and hence to remain till a very late hour. The student should show more common sense than to be controlled by a fad which obtains only in Lawrence, and which is both silly and injurious. A great many of both the ladies and the gentlemen would gladly adopt the more sensible and convenient fashion of early hours, which obtains in the large cities, but no one seems to have the courage to make the change.

The subject of a new yell was broached in the local columns of our last issue, and we again wish to call attention to the fact, if the words are distinctly enunciated, it is impossible for even the most vigorous throat to sustain the shock of more than a dozen or two most vigorous yells. We do not advocate the abandonment of Rock Chalk Jay Hawk K.U., but we do think that some addition which would relieve the almost continuous succession of final k's would add very materially to our endurance.
The report of the Missouri-Nebraska game shows us that we will have to do some work to win the pennant this year. The entire University is interested in the Thanksgiving game, for it appears that the winner will receive the pennant; hence it behooves the entire University to do its uttermost for our team. Many students who could go to Kansas City and yell for K. U. will be tempted by the thoughts of Thanksgiving dinner at home to let the team take care of itself; but they should remember that there will be but two weeks till the Christmas holiday, and spend Thanksgiving at Kansas City, where they can do the most good.
THE Faculty concert of last Thursday evening fully demonstrated that the School of Music is able to give the most ambitious music student as good instruction as can be obtained in the best of the eastern conservatories. The crowded house showed that the people of Lawrence appreciate the efforts of a hard-working faculty to build up a superior school in the West; but unfortunately the members of our legislature know little or nothing of these efforts; and hence are unwilling to make sufficient provision to enable the faculty to do its work. The Dean of the School receives an assistants salary, while the other members of the faculty are forced to get what they can from fees. Other professional schools are so supported that large fees are not necessary to their existence. What is the cause of this discrimination against the musical profession? It cannot be that music is considered any less a profession than law or engineering, or that the state needs musicians
less than lawyers. It is not contended that the state should furnish free elementary instruction, but it should provide more liberally for advanced study in all branches of music, and it should pay the faculty in proportion to the service rendered. The people of Lawrence are, and should be more interested in the development of the School of Music than those of any other city in the state; and they should, through their most prominent citizens, see that something is done for the school by the next legislature. Of course the faculty and regents have done and will continue to do all they can for the school, but the faculties of the other schools are naturally too much interested in their respective schools, and the regents are too much attracted by the seeming greater importance of the other schools to give the School of Music the attention it deserves. The people of Lawrence have shown their great interest in the University as a whole, let them now show that they appreciate the School of Music.

Al. Lamb, a Lawrence young man, now languishes in the city jail for the theft of an overcoat from University halls. The overcoat is the property of Gladhart, who, as soon as he noted its disappearance, commenced a still hunt, which finally resulted in the apprehension of the thief. At first, young Lamb stoutly denied any knowledge of the overcoat, but finally broke down and confessed. He was fined $25 in police court, and, being unable to pay the fine, was sent to jail. There was also in his possession a fine umbrella and a hat, which are now at the jail awaiting identification. Last year young Lamb was in the habit of spending a good deal of his time at the University reading in the library. Perhaps he might be able to throw some light on the mysterious disappearance of several articles last year.

A Mistake.
"Jist listen here, Julie," said old Uncle Cy to his wife. "If this aint darned hard luck, I don't want a cent," and the old man proceeded to read a letter which he had just received.
"I am terribly sorry Father, but I wont be able to come home this Christmas, nor any time during the holidays. I have a large amount of work on my hands that will have to be finished before the beginning of next term, and my only time to do it will be during vacation. You know this is my last year, and I want to get everything in shape before I finish." "Now it seems to me that Jo might have managed it some way, so that he could be here for a little while anyway," and the old man threw the letter over to his wife, and started down town to his business.
When he came back in the evening, his face showed that he was greatly puzzled over something. His wife noticed it, and inquired:
"What's the matter Cyrus?
Then the old man burst out with: "I've been down town, and been a talking with Simon Badger, Al Smith, old man Blodgett, and a lot of them fellers as knows about such things, and they all say: 'Uncle Cy, Jo's a lying to you. He aint got no work to do, fer them college fellers don't work much. He's been playing foot-ball and such like, and is laying up for repairs now, and dasn't come home and tell you that he has got purty near killed. All them foot-ball men get about killed every time they play, and of course they never do any work. Why they spend over twelve hours a day training fer a game, more'n a race hoss does.' Now if these fellers are right and this boy has been a lying to me, I'm going to lick him till he can't stand, even if he is as big as I am. I tell you what I'm going to do, old woman. If Jo can't come here, I can go there, and I am going to do it too. I'm going to slip in on him, and see if he has been lying to me, and if he has, I'm never going to give him one cent more money this whole year, and he can

get through college the best way he can." The old man's mind was made up, and he began to get everything ready for his departure. The more he thought of the matter, the more he believed what his neighbors had told him. Every day some person, who had said nothing before, would tell him how much time the football players wasted, and Uncle Cy, who had before been so proud of the record made by his boy on the field, would almost swear to think that he had been such a fool as to believe everything that Jo wrote him.
At last the day for his departure came, and the old man boarded the train with many misgivings. A crowd of the gossipers among the men were at the station to see him off, and the last thing he heard was to remember what they had told him, and see if they weren't right about Jo and what he was doing, and that they'd bet that the boy had got broke playing poker and didn't have money enough to come home.
The time on the train went very slowly indeed for Uncle Cy, and the farther he got along the road, the greater became his fears. He could picture Jo in his room, sitting beside a table with several boon companions around it. A beer bottle was standing on the dresser, a pile of red, white, and blue disks before each player, and Jo looking out of his unbandaged eye at the cards in his hand, and considering carefully whether he had better "stay" or "let her slide." Jo's right arm was tied up in a large bandage, his leg was stretched out carefully on a chair, a red rag was tied around his head, and a small black pipe was closely gripped between his teeth. Every mile or so would add smething new to the horrible picture and by the time the old man had arrived at his destination, he was all a tremble from thinking of the sight that would soon meet his eyes.
He got off the train at the college town, and as he walked up the street, could not help but notice the lack of cripples, a large number of whom he supposed he would see as soon as he came into town.
He inquired the way to his son's house, and knocked at the door. The landlady told him
to go right up stairs to the first room, and go right in, for Jo was at home. Uncle Cy went up as quietly as possible, for he wanted to surprise Jo in his devilment and not give him a chance to get out of it. He was surprised at not hearing any noise of revelry, and thought that Jo must be in bed, resting from his debauches He opened the door quietly and looked in; but what a sight! There were no beer bottles in sight, no cards nor polker chips. no bandaged head or arm. The room was very comfortably furnished. A brisk fire was burning in the stove; and above all, there at the table, sitting with his head bent over a large book, and others scattered around him, satJo, evidently really at work and hard at work too. The old man stood there for a moment, hardly able to comprehend what he saw. That he took out a great red handkerchief, wiped his eyes of some unusual moisture, and spoke to Jo. The surprise of meeting his father was evidently very pleasant to the young man, and UncleCy inwardly swore at himself for believing what his neighbors, "who knew all about such things," had told him.
His stay was not long, and he said nothing to Jo about his suspicions; but when he left, he handed the boy an extra fifty and told him to have a good time during vacation, and not work too hard.

That Columbia has been diligently sawing wood since that struggle of 28 to o, contenting herself with but one little game with Missouri Valley College, was plainly evident at Exposition Park last Saturday. Nebraska, still smiling over the Denver game, little thought that after their tie with the academy at Baldwin, Columbia would prove much of a hindrance in the race for the pennant. But alas, security was theirs as well as other mortals' chiefest enemy, and now Uncle Jimmie's red and white is somewhat faded.
Championship; Missouri 30, Nebraska 18.
Of course Shawhan's return gave M. U. renewed spirit, but even her most hopeful adherents were uprepared for such a "reversal of form." That line, through which Heller and Motter went at will, proved itself a stone wall to the mighty efforts of Flippin. But to make a long story short, M. S. U. obtained her victory simply by clearly out-playing her opponent. Oury, Flippin, and Yont played the game for Nebraska; while Robinson, Shawhan, and Anderson distinguished themselves for Missouri.

Prof. P. K. Dillenbeck has been for four sessions instructor in the science and art of Elocution and Oratory in Kentucky University. He has proved himself a master in his office. The students have made admirable progress under his instruction and drill. Prof. Dillenbeck thoroughly understands his task. He is remarkable for the aptness of his teaching, his skill in training students, in the success which attends his work and in the general industry and diligence he shows as a teacher. We regret very much that we cannot keep him here. CHAS. LOUIS LOOS, President Kentucky University
CHAS. LOUIS LOOS, President Kentucky University, Lexington, Ky. From Mrs. Mary Cecil Cantrell, Kentucky, Executive Committee and at large of the Board of Lady Managers of the World's Columbian Exposition; It becomes an unqualified pleasure for me to commend to any one
"It becomes an unqualified pleasure for me to commend to any people or audience Prof. Preston K. Dillenbeck, both as a gentleman and a thorough master of the twin arts of interpretation and expression. His method in both teaching and delivering conforms so faithfully to nature that it scarcely seems art at all. All the delicate shadings of thought and sentiment are so deftly rendered that to attuned ears all criticism becomes only a synonym for praise."

It is evident that our foot ball team has been keeping quiet and doing hard work. Nebraska was able to tie with both Denver and Baker, both of which defeated us only a short time ago, but was unable to score against our team. This shows a great improvement in our team's work, for it is unreasonable to suppose the work of the Nebraska team has suddenly deteriorated. In spite of its defeats we are and should be proud of our team, and should offer it every encouragement in the next two great battles at Kansas City. Next Saturday we meet one of the greatest teams of the central states, and must fight hard if we win. Let every student who can afford to do so go to see the game and yell for K. U. Our chances for winning the pennant are the best of any team in the league, and we shall have reason to treat our boys to another ride yet this year.
More attention than usual was attracted to this week's Science Club by the announcement in many of the classes of the meeting and a statement of the work to be done. It is to be hoped that sufficient attention may there be attracted to the Club to make the scientific students take more interest in the work it is doing than at present. No scientific student can afford to content himself with the class and textbook work alone while there are such excellent opportunities in many lines as the Club affords. Much original work is done by the enterprising members of the Club, who, of course, receive the greatest benefit therefrom; but much that can be obtained in no other way can be learned simply by attending the meeting. The expenses of the Club are merely nominal, and the work done is of the highest scientific character; hence, the membership and attendance should be much greater than they are.
The University of Kansas is very young; very few of the people of Kansas are very wealthy, and the most of those who are have gained their wealth by a hard struggle, and, therefore, are not inclined to give freely to any cause: besides, in the popular mind, the University is supported by the state, and, hence, everything needed is supplied by the state. For these reasons nothing of note has ever been done by the friends of the University to help the poor but deserving student to gain a high education. In the great eastern universities, scholarships and fellowships by the score have been founded by wealthy friends, and by clasess. The Class of '93 of Bowdoin bound itself to raise one hundred and fifty dollars a year to assist some needy student to obtain an

education. There are many an industrious young person that such an amount yearly would enable to pursue a course in the University of Kansas. The individual would be infinitely benefitted; the state would be benefitted; the University would be benefitted; and not by any means least would the class which conferred the favor be benefitted. The money should not be given, but should be loaned to the student. In that way his self-respect would not be violated, and the money would assist not one, but many, to live a better and more useful life.
There will be more than thirty members of the Class of '94 in the School of Arts. It would cost each member but little sacrifice to give his share of one hundred or one hundred and fifty dollars for each of the first four years after graduation, the money to be used in some such manner as indicated. The Faculty or the Trustees would see that the recipient of the money were deserving, and that, when he became able to do so, he could repay it so that it might be used again in the same manner. The Class of '94 wants to distinguish itself: can it find a better method of doing so?
LAST TUESDAY evening a petition, signed by a large number of students, in which it was asked that the study of the Bible be placed among the optionals for next term and allowed to count as a full study, was presented to the Faculty. It was decided that the petition could not be granted because their was no member of the Faculty prepared to teach the subject. It seems that this must be a grievous mistake, or else there is no member of the Faculty who is willing to attempt to teach one of the most important subjects that could be offered. It was asked that the subjects be taught as an English study, just as the studies in Bacon and Milton and Shakespeare are taught, and it is certainly as valuable as any of these. The subject is taught in other state universities and there is no reason why it should not be here. If there is no one in the Faculty prepared to do the work, the Board of Regents should obtain one. If we are to have a University of the highest standard it must teach at least all important subjects.

LOGALS.
Ira W. Hicks, of Lawrence, has entered the junior law class.
A class of University Extension has been organized at Chanute. The course has as yet not been arranged.
Georgia Wilder entertained a number of her friends with a taffy-pull last Friday evening, at her home just west of the city.
Saturday, November 18th, Miss Ida Katherman, of Lawrence, showed her friend Miss Ida Lyons, of Pleasant Grove, through the University.
Richard Harding Davis has a very humorous write-up of foot-ball in Harper's Weekly of November 18th, entitled "A Day with the Yale Team."
Harper's Weekly of November 18th contains a very good article on the Kansas-Iowa football game, which was played in Kansas City November 4th.
The subject of Professor Blackmar's lecture last Thursday night before the Lawrence University Extension Society was "Industrial Co-operation."
Arthur Kane, of Baker University, drove up from Baldwin last Saturday to witness the football game between the Lawrence and Topeka High School teams.
The University has just received from the State Printer at Topeka two thousand University Extension enrollment cards, similar to the cards used in the classes here in the University.
The University Review for November appears in a new dress, which is very becoming. It would be better, perhaps, if it was not almost an exact copy of the Courier cover; but still, a better model to copy from cannot be found.
Now that the farmers are sending in reports as to the effect of inoculated chinch-bugs in their fields, Chancellor Snow expects to get out his chinch-bug report about the first of January.
George D. Hall went to Topeka Friday night. Julia Righter is wearing the light and dark blue of Kappa Kappa Gamma.
George Hill, of Independence, Kansas, registered in the visitor's register last Thursday.
Professor E. M. Hopkins delivered his second lecture in Kansas City in the regular University Extension Course on Thursday last.
The plans for the Mount Oread street railway, as prepared by Holland Wheeler, are on exhibition in the window of the Santa Fe ticket office.
At the Language conference last Friday afternoon in the Greek lecture room, R. W. Neal read a paper entitled "Was Washington a Deist?"
Ernest Blaker, '93, spent a few days last and this week in the city visiting his friends. During the past summer Ernest held an excellent position at the World's Fair.
The lecture room of Snow Hall has lately been fixed up for stereoscopic lantern views. The old lantern has undergone a number of needed repairs, and now is as good as new.
The meeting of the Y. M. C. A. Sunday afternoon in Music Hall was in charge of students from the Law School. The topic of discussion was "What Noted men Have Thought of Christianity."
The supposed meteorite from western Kansas, upon analysis by Professor Bailey, proved to be genuine. It is not very often that masses of metalic mater thought to be of meteoric origin, proved to be such upon analysis. The specimen will make a valuable addition to natural history collection.
Two quails, flying at full speed, flew against a large window, 40 x 44 inches, in the south side of Snow Hall last week, and broke it all to pieces. The quails dropped dead, and Professor Williston, to get even for the destruction of the window, took them home and ate them for his dinner. The quails were being chased by a hawk, and keeping their gaze directly backward in their anxiety to escape, and met death in another manner.

The annual Stag Banquet of the Phi Delta Theta will be given Tuesday evening, November 28th.
Professor Bailey last week received from Germany a large shipment of glass and porcelain ware.

A new liquid carbonic acid cylinder has been received by the Chemistry Department. It is so arranged that with it solid carbonic acid is able to be obtained.
O. K. Williamson is suffering from a number of boils on the back of his right hand. It is doubtful if he will be able to play in the game against Ann Arbor next Saturday.
The Chemistry Department had a "hood" built on the west side of the chemistry building last week. It will hold the beaker containing the hydrogen sulphide, which gives off an odor so offensive.
If the papers which are read by students before the Language Conference meet with the same fate and criticism as the paper entitled "Was Washington a Deist" did last Friday, the students will be very adverse to reading them.
Sergeant Hanson, of the U. S. Army, and a member of the Seventh Cavalry, located at Ft. Riley, has entered the University to take a special course in English. His object in so doing is that he expects to take the examination for second lieutenant in a few months. He is a fine military looking man, and is said to speak six languages.
J. E. Curry has made an analysis of an interesting deposit in a heating pipe from the water-works. The pipe was so nearly filled by this deposit that scarcely any water would pass through it. The deposit consists of silica, 2.28; alumina and iron, 7.61; magnesia carbonate, 2.10; calcium carbonate, 79.64; calcium sulfate, 5.19. This is practically the same as the scale that is formed in boilers and tea kettles by the use of our hard waters.
With a month more of good weather the roof will be on the new library building.

The Secretary of the Y. M. C. A. of Kansas City, Mo., was in the Chancellor's office Monday making arrangements for a course of popular lectures to be delivered by Professor Blake. He is also trying to arrange for a course with several of our other professors.
Professor Blake is conducting signal experiments in the Kansas River, and will continue them until the river is frozen over with ice. His plan of operation is to lower a cell battery into the water, and then talk to an assistant about a mile up the river, using the water only to convey the sound. He is fast bringing his system to a high degree of perfection.

On Saturday afternoon, the 18th of November, about thirty-five young women, members of the Pi Beta Phi fraternity, gathered at the home of one of their patronesses, Mrs. James Woods Green, where a delightful afternoon was spent. Progressive whist was indulged in, and very dainty refreshments were served. Rose bowls of chrysanthemums gave an added touch of beauty to the charming parlors. Mrs. Green was assisted in entertaining by Mrs. Ayres and Mrs. Bullene, and those present, besides fraternity members, were Mrs. Paul Brooks and Mrs. Peter Emery, also patronesses of the fraternity, and Miss Edith Thacher, of Topeka. The occasion was made more enjoyable by the pledging of Miss Hattie Ayres, daughter of the Rev. W. W. Ayres, rector of the Trinity Church.

LITERARY.
The Lost Baby.
It was a terrible hot day. The sun shone down with unrelenting vigor from a perfectly clear sky, and seemed to take the very life out of everything. The prairie dogs and gophers had retired to the cooler air of their holes, and the few grasshoppers hardly seemed to care whether they got out of the way or not. Not a thing could be seen, except the regularly rolling prairie, and a few stunted trees over by the "run." The trail seemed extra dry and sandy, and the horses hoofs knocked up great clouds of fine sand, that surrounded the old "prairie schooner,"almost hiding it from view, as it wended its slow way along.
The schooner itself was a very dilapidated affair. All the paint had long ago been worn off the old wagon, and the wheels were patched up with pieces of rough wood. The wagon cover was made up of a variety of materials, from heavy oil-cloth to a piece of an old apron or dress, whose original color had long ago faded out. The rickety vehicle was drawn by two as tired looking horses as had gone over that trail for months. Their very bones seemed about to pierce their "buck-shin" colored hide, and their slow pace showed that they were not destined for a much longer sojourn on this earthly sphere.
The occupants of the curious looking wagon did not seem to be very greatly troubled by the forlorn aspect of their traveling outfit, for all them were asleep, except the driver. He was a solemn darky of the old school, and as he sat on the board that served as a seat, puffing a well blackened pipe, and now and then giving a lazy shake to the rope lines to arouse the slow moving horses, he looked the very picture of contentment. Now and then his notice would be attracted by something off on the prairie, and his wrinkled old face would show a interest in things about him that betokened a mind still active under its load of many years and hardships.
The schooner had been moving along for
sometime, when the occupants began to awaken from their sleep, and to move around a little. All at once they were startled into activity by the horrified exclamation of a young girl, whose skin was as black as nature could well make it.
"Fo' de Lord, whar's de baby?"
Everybody was up and awake in an instant, and there was a general scramble and search for the missing infant. The team stopped, and the old man crawled back into the wagon to see what was the matter. He received only disjointed exclamations in answer to his questions.
"De poo' precious lam' am los'."
"Dat's whut comes ob not habin' any indgate in de wagin. I allus 'lowed as how we'd loose somethin' sometime, and hyar's de baby done gone."
The mother of the numerous children stood on the ground, wringing her hands and crying that:
"It wuz allus de lublies' chile I eber had, and now to jist drap him out on de prairie, fo' de cayotes an' odder varmints to eat up,—it wuz too bad, too bad."
The whole dusky crowd got out of the wagon and cast longing looks back over the dusky trail, but no child could be seen. Only the endless line of road was in sight, as far as the eye could see.
The older heads of the family met together in council, and their decision was soon made. The sage advice of the old man prevailed.
"We betta' jist turn 'roun'an' go back 'long de road, till we fin'd dat boy, fo' we've got to fin' im."
They all climbed into the wagon, and started back over their old trail. No one went to sleep now. On the contrary, every eye was kept turned in the direction in which they were going, expecting every moment to see the object of their search; but no baby. They kept on and on until night fall, and only stopped when it became too dark to go further without being liable to pass the child in the dark.
* * * * * *
About the time that we made the acquaintance of the schooner and its contents, there could have been seen; riding slowly along over the

sandy trail, some miles back of where the old darkey was driving his dilapidated outfit, an old woman of dusky complexion, mounted on a small burro, whose long ears flapped loosely back and forth, kept time to his lazy "sig-sag" gait. Behind her sat a small boy, holding on by his mother's dress. The old woman was crooning over some old ditty to herself, when, rousing herself, she looked for a few momeets rather curiously at some object ahead, nudged the boy with her elbow, and said:
"You Hinnery, wake up boy, and see'f you kin tell whut dat ar ting on de groun' ahead ob us is."
"Hinnery"woke up enough to crane his neck to one side of his mother's ample form, and looked at the puzzling object.
"Hit'pears to me to me to be some kinder animile, fur I seed it a wigglin'."
As they slowly approached the object, their interest became more intense, and at last the old woman exclaimed:
"Bress Lord, an' if 'taint a baby! Whoa, mule. Hinnery, git off, and pick de poo' little ting up. We'll jist fetch it home, an' it'll take de place of you' little brudder Sammy, whut done died las' week. De good Lord mus' ob sent dis little honey to console my ole age."
* * * * * *
The wagon and our friends came up a long slope, and drew up in front of a typical western dug-out. The old man, in company with the oldest boy, went to the door and knocked. The old man looked almost broken hearted. He had not slept all the night long, and had mourned bitterly indeed over the loss of his "precious boy." That one night seemed to have added years to his age, and his old wrinkled face had lost all its brightness.
In answer to their knock "Hinnery's mother came to the door, and when the old man asked if she had "done seed anything ob a poo' little chile lyin' in de road, or knowd of anybody who had foun' 'im," the old woman burst into tears, lamenting that she had "allus had a feelin' dat somebody'd come arter de baby."
When the boy shouted to the rest or the family, who had stretched their necks out of the
wagon to see what kept the pair so long at the door, that "We's done foun' 'im," they all piled out of the wagon and came on a run for the house.
However the finder of the baby was unwilling to give him up, and, after a long discussion, they settled it between themselves that they would have to live on the same claim, and "take turns a keepin' de chile."

Ah, me thinks we read our title clear to the pennant. It is hovering above us, and according to the most sanguine forecasts, 'tis truly believed that Mt. Oread on her one hill will again rule the West.
True, we meet Columbia on Thanksgiving day, and Manager Robinson, in order to fill his little note book with our errors and xyz's, denied himself the pleasure of accompanying his team to Iowa City, and silently bought his ticket for Liincoln. But then, a few problems of addition and subtraction, some comparisons make us really believe that it will be a day of rejoicing. And the fact is, we don't believe Mr. Robinson got very many pointers for the simple reason that we were not compelled to play our game. Nebraska, in no instance making a gain of over six yards on a down, enabled our boys to practice line bucking and defensive plays. When this proved monotonous, the ball was passed to Johnson, who would send the ends on a run of forty or fifty yards.
Nebraska insisted on playing Crawford, their hired coach, which is in strict violation of the rules of the Association. The matter will be brought up at the next meeting.
Our line put up a magnificent game, the heavy bucking of N. S. U.'s halfs showing no weak spot. Piatt is undoubtedly a fixture at tackle. The backs played in their usual good form, Johnson's punting deserving especial mention. Crawford, Yont, and Flippin distinguished themselves for Nebraska.
THE GAME.
FIRST HALF.—K. U. won the toss and took the ball; Nebraska had the goal and wind. The flying wedge gained five yards; a center play added two more; Johnson punted against the wind, Williamson dropped on the ball. Five yards were gained on end plays; Shepard was downed for a loss of twelve yards; Johnson punted for ten. N. S. U. took the ball for the first time, and before they are stopped seventeen yards lay behind them; here K. U. braced and took the ball on downs. Champlin went through left and for twenty yards; Hamill added twelve; Shepard and Matteson each five, and after short gains by wedge, Champlin went through the line for a touch-down. Matteson kicked goal. Score, 6 to o.
The ball alternated throughout the rest of the half between the two sides; during the last fifteen minutes, N. S. U. worked hard, and, after short gains, time was called, with the ball on K.U.'s five-yard line. Score, 6 to o.
SECOND HALF.—Nebraska started the ball for ten yards, but soon lost it on downs. Johnson punts for a good seventy yards, Yont dropped on it behind the goal for a touchback. The teams lined up on the twenty-five yard line. Nebraska gained five yards on an off-side play, but is unable to advance in four downs, and Johnson punted for thirty yards; Yont returned for ten. Johnson again punted to N. S. U.'s twenty-five yard line. Yont fumbled, and Piatt got the ball only to fumble it to Williamson, who in turn fumbled to Shellenbarker for a touch-down. Matteson kicked goal. Score, 12 to o.
N. S. U. made little gain on the kick-off, and
The University Courier.

soon lost on downs. Here Hopewell was disqualified for duty playing, and Carney took his place. Johnson punted for seventy yards; Yont falling on it at the twenty-five-yard line. K. U. soon took the ball on downs, and advanced rapidly. Champlin finally bucks center for a touch-down. Matteson kicked goal Score: K. S.U.18,N.S.U.o.
Time was called shortly after, with the ball in K. U.'s territory.
The teams played in the following order:
K. S. U. POSITIONS. N. S. U. Steinberger Right End, left...Shue Matteson Right Tackle, left...Whipple Hamill Right Guard, left...Dirn Coleman Center.. Hopewell, Carney Griffiths Left Guard, right...Wilson Piatt. Left Tackle, right...Oury Shepard Left End, right...Johnston Williamson Quarter...Crawford Champlin Right Half-back J. Yont Shellenbarker Left Half-back...Flippin Johnson Full Back A. Yont Umpire, Mr. Wilson, Omaha; Referee, Mr. Cornell, Kansas City.
Championship; Iowa 34, Columbia 12.
In the first half, Iowa made four touch-downs to Missouri's none. Myers, Hess, and Sawyer made long end runs. Dyers, Rogers, and Collins bucked Columbia's line for sure gains. Shawhan, Anderson, Latimer, and Young played good ball for M. S. U. Columbia was uuable to break the Iowa line, and was weak on end plays.
While Michigan has always had a crack baseball team, winning from Harvard in 1891 and Yale in 1892, it is only recently that she has developed a foot-ball team which will compare favorably with those of eastern colleges. The first game of this season was played at Ann Arbor October 7th with the Detroit Athletic Club team, and resulted in a score of 6-0 in favor of the University of Michigan. On the 14th a return game was played with the Detroit Athletic Club at Detroit, and this time Michigan won by the decisive score of 26-0. This showed the team to be making rapid progress, as the Detroit Athletic Club team included many excellent ex-collegians and had enjoyed thorough training. The next game was with the Chicago University team, and was lost by
the score of 10-6, Michigan having the ball within a foot of Chicago's goal line when time was called. Michigan then returned home, where it met defeat on October 28th at the hands of the strong Minnesota team, 34-20. The following Saturday, November 4th, Wisconsin administered the third successive defeat by the score of 34-18. Michigan went into this game badly crippled. On November 11th Michigan met and defeated the strong Purdue team, hitherto undefeated since 1890, by the score of 46-8. It was no chance victory, as from beginning to end Purdue was clearly outplayed. The following Monday, November 13th, Michigan met and defeated DePauw's eleven, 34-0. Michigan has shown steady improvement of late, and is now in the pink of condition, and flushed with the success of victory over two of the strongest teams in the West. The manager of the team is Mr. Chas. Baird, of Chicago, and the assistant manager Mr. Eugene Batavia, of Kansas City.—K. C. Times.
November 25th, that's the date. Let everyone turn out. Let Kansas City and U.of M. supporters know that the Kansas University is more than proud of her 'Varsity. All our "rooters" must be there to yell as man ne'er yelled before. On the 30th U.of M.meets Cornell, so, in a great measure, the strength of eastern and western teams may be estimated. Come! come! come!
Mr. Waterman, of Doane, has our sincere apologies. In our last issue it was insinuated that Mr. W. was the worst and most unfair foot-ball umpire that the world had ever seen. We were mistaken. We spoke in haste and in the conceit of a new experience. There are depths of perfidy which Mr. W. has never reached. Since that Doane game we have learned some things. Before Mr. W. umpires another game we advise him to take a course under Mr. Toomey, of Baker. If there is anything in the way of "hossing" an opposing team which Mr. Toomey doesn't know, it has been invented since the 28th of October. For pure, unadulterated nerve, Mr. Toomey takes the "Bakery." He knows very few of the rules of foot-ball, and those that he knows he is more than anxious to misapply in favor of his own team. If the managers of the Nebraska team ever allow a player of an opposing team to umpire again, they deserve to be beaten about a thousand to nothing. —Nebraskan.
And yet that academy still insists on one of their number for umpire.

He swayed the audience at will, even moving them to tears by his action and pathos.—K. C. Journal. PERSONAL LETTERS AND TESTIMONIALS.
Prof. P. K. Dillenbeck has been for four sessions instructor in the science and art of Elocution and Oratory in Kentucky University. He has proved himself a master in his office. The students have made admirable progress under his instruction and drill. Prof. Dillenbeck thoroughly understands his task. He is remarkable for the aptness of his teaching, his skill in training students, in the success which attends his work and in the general industry and diligence he shows as a teacher. We regret very much that we cannot keep him here. CHAS. LOUIS LOOS President Kettering University
CHAS. Louis Loos, President Kentucky University, Lexington, Ky.
From Mrs. Mary Cecil Cantrell, Kentucky, Executive Committee and at large of the Board of Lady Managers of the World's Columbian Exposition:
"It becomes an unqualified pleasure for me to commend to any people or audience Prof. Preston K. Dillenbeck, both as a gentleman and a thorough master of the twin arts of interpretation and expression. His method in both teaching and delivering conforms so faithfully to nature that it scarcely seems art at all. All the delicate shadings of thought and sentiment are so deitly rendered that to attuned ears all criticism becomes only a synonym for praise."
