MISSOURI-KANSAS GAME.
Thanksgiving day witn-sued the best game of football ever played in Kansas City. Three thousand people were on the grounds, in spite of the cold weather. A cold wind was blowing from the north and the crowd on the bleachers found it difficult to keep warm. The Lawrence enthusiasts were not over confident, for Williamson was absent, Steinberger was disabled and Coleman was in poor condition and obliged to withdraw from the game. Rothrock played a good game at left end. McMurray played quarterback. Harvey took Coleman's place during the last half of the game. Ex-Yale students witnessed the game from the grand stand, and held their colors high, until they heard that Princeton won the Championship from their ama mater with a score of 6.0. From Kansas, Governor Lowelling, ex-Secstary of State Higgins and a car load of Topeka people saw Kansas lose the game."
FIRST HALF.
The two teams lined up at 3 p.m. Missouri won the toss and chose the north end. Kansas started off with its usual wedge for fifteen yards. After two downs and no gains, Johnson attempted to punt. The ball bounced back Thompson broke through, secured the ball and scored an easy touch down. Anderson kicked goal. Score 6-0, three minutes after the ball was put in play.
Kansas went in for blood. Shellenbarger, Piatt, Matteson and Champlin made successive gains, within within five yards of Missouri's goal. MacMurray fumbled and gave Missouri the ball. Missouri took it back to the center by steady gains. Kansas again got the ball and carried it back to the -dive yard line where she lost it on downs. The ball was regained but lost on a fumble. It was again recovered and K. U. scored her only touch down. Matteson failed to kick a difficult goal. Store 6-4 Missouri started off with a flying wedge and carried the ball far into Kansas territory but lost it on downs. It was then worked gradually back into Missouri territory. The first half ended with the ball near the center of the field.
SECOND HALF.
SECOND HALF
Missouri started off with a wedge.
Johnson punted twice, and each time
Missouri got the ball. In the last few minutes of the game Missouri scored her second touch down and kicked goal, Score 12-4. By rapid playing they again carried the ball over the line two minutes after time had been called. Through lack of space we do not give the individual plays The score of last year between Mo, U. and K. U. was thus reversed.

THE MICHIGAN-KANSAS GAME.
Through appreciation of their work the football management treated the second eleven to a free trip to the game and fare at the Coate's house.
Kansas left her Mascot at home and received her fourth defeat last Saturday. This time the giants from Michigan are the victors.
The crimson athletes were forced to play an uphill game owing to the superior weight of their opponents and the substitutes in their own team.
It was plainly a case of Kausas skill against the brawn and muscle of Michigan.
Probably the real cause of our defeat was the absence of our mascot, "Willie" (Williamson), quarter back.
Michigan won the toss and K U. took the windward side.
Michigan opened with an old fashioned wedge, gaining fifteen old yards. Holliser backed the line for small gain. Dygert followed with 24 yards. Holliser and Dygert failed to make five yards on three downs, and K. U. got the ball.
Shellenbarger was sent around the end for ten yards. Kansas made three downs and lost three yards. Johnson punted for 65 yards and Dygert fell on the ball at the ten yard line.
Hollister bucked the Kansas line for 5 yards. Dvgert made 2] yards followed by Griffin for 2. Piatt fell on the ball.
Champlin bucked the line but lost 34 yards. Shellenbarger was sent around he end for 15 yards and was downed by Griffin. Champlin and Saellenbarger bucked the line for good gains until within two feet of Michigan's goal, when an unlucky fumble lost Kansas the ball, and with it their only chance to score.
Michigan's half backs bucked our line tor gains from 1 to 10 yards until the ball was on Kansas' 25 yard line. Then the boys from K. U. rallied and held Michigan for three downs, and got the ball.
Johnson was given the ball for a putt but he punted so high that it only netted Kansas 20 yards. Dyergot got the ball and was downed by the ever present Matteison.
Dygert and Hollister tried to back the line of Kansas, but falling in this they made several end plays. Four downs and Kansas took the ball.
Johnson punted for 20 yards. Dyergt fumbled and Matteson got the ball and made ten yards more. Shelenbarger went around the end for 15 yards, but Kansas lost both gain and bail by an offside play.
Michigan's bucks went through the

SPEND the vacation in preparing your oration for the January contest.
"WHAT shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?"
Yes. We were defeated by the University of Michigan. But yet we are not ashamed of ourselves or our 'Varsity team They did good work, better than the score indicates.
A UNIVERSITY Press Association would give excellent training to students who desire to follow newspaper work, and at the same time be of great benefit in extending the University's influence. No one organization in the school would be doing better work. The JOURNAL renews its motion for a Press Association.
Now that the judges have been appointed for the State oratorical contest and as the other schools in the association have trained their orators for some time, it might be well for three or four of the K. U. boys to write orations just to see whether there may not chance to be a ready made orator in the bunch.
A NUMBER of professors are thinking of offering a course of lectures on the Bible. If a course be arranged, the lectures will be given once a week in one of the University lecture rooms. These lectures will be open to all members of the University and will no doubt be well attended. No credit can be given by the University, but this fact will not detract in the least from the value of the work. In fact, such a course of lectures would be another and long step forward.
THE court house was comfortably filled by students of the law school and other schools Saturday night. The occasion of the meeting was the lecture on hypnosis by Professor Templin. The lecture was of exceedingly great interest to all present. It showed a careful, exhaustive study of the subject, and was rather of a scientific than popular nature. Yet the subject is such as cannot be treated even scientifically without being popular. The Kent Club have the thanks of the students for the kind invitation to attend the course of lectures to be given under their direction during the winter.
It has been said repeatedly that the chapel service should bring together students and faculty, and thus create more community of feeling and interests. But while this was being urged to the students, there were present of the faculty at most not more than seven or eight, and the appeal came without force. To be sure, a larger proportion of the faculty attend chapel than of the students. But in anything of this kind, it is expected, and perhaps only naturally, that the faculty shall take the lead, and the students are not altogether to blame for neglecting what so many of their professors pay no attention to.
NOTHING is more likely to prevent the success of an undertaking than is the un willingness of its friends to do what is generally called more than their share It is the willingness to do all that is to be done, whether that be more than one's "share" or not, that insures the accoun pishment of a work. To the men who take hold without asking or caring if others are doing as much as they, or doing as much as they ought to do, the success of every movement is owed. It is the end, not the labor required to bring it about, that must be considered. And what matter is it, then, if you, or you in association with half a dozen others, do the work, so that only it is done! All the more to your credit if you do it alone. H.
YESTERDAY morning, there was stolen from the patrons of the lecture bureau, time to the amount of twenty hours. The chart for seats was advertised to be open at the Santa Fe city ticket office at 8 o'clock; but did not appear until more than thirty minutes later. During this time, forty students, many without breakfast, waited to reserve seats. Such a wholesale robbery of time is unreasonable and unjust.
H
And while in the proper mood, it might be well to make another complaint. The lots for places in the line were supposed to be drawn before eight o'clock. Nearly all of those who drew were present at the proper time, but a few persons came very late. One man arrived at 8:30 and was given permission to draw. He drew number two and he thereby was placed at the head of the line of those who had been waiting since the proper time, and got to select six of the choicest seats.
THERE is probably less than two months before the January oratorical contest, at which the contestant for the state contest will be chosen. If you intend to take part, it is time to be at work. Other schools have been practicing for some time. And why not take part? You would stand no chance? That may be a mistake. A man is the poorest judge of himself that can be found. And if you stand no chance of winning, is that all that is to be sought? The Journal thinks that there is much good to be gotten merely from taking part in the contest, even if one has the lowest place on the list. The preparation of the oration, and the training for delivering it, in themselves cause enough improvement to pay for all the time and work that may be expended, to say nothing of the influence which your participation may have in encouraging others to compete.
ASOUR JOURNAL reaches nearly every High school in the state, we feel it not out of place to offer a suggestion regarding a possible improvement in our president school system. Proud as we may be of our Kansas High school system, which serves as a great preparatory school for our state University, yet at the same time we feel that this system is far from perfect, in that it is not seited to the needs of a large percentage of our people. Of this class, the portion who are able to take the course as at present arranged are thereby educated out of their proper sphere, and those who are unable to take the course as outlined are practically deprived of any education. Now the remedy is this—and let it be known, that the the idea is not an original one, but that it has been advocated by the most prominent sociologists. Place along side of each High school course, as presently outlined, a course in practical work such as will prepare the student in a thorough and scientific way for any of the trades. The course should be such as can be completed in the same time as the present High school course. An allowance of money could no doubt be paid for work done in the school, so that the poor student could earn at least a portion of his expenses. By such a course of study the ordinary laboring man's son, who is at present deprived of
11.
even a High school education—and it as well that it is so—could, be prepared to do better the work which he must inevitably do.
AFTER the regular lessons have been learned, the student who has not been accustomed to so large a number of books and papers, is at a loss to know just what to read. He may regret that he cannot read everything. As well might a lady, inspecting dress goods, in a shop, regret that she cannot wear everything, or a boy standing in a confectionary store regret that he cannot eat everything. The very fact that there is so much material should be a source of joy, from the fact that the obligation to read everything has been removed. We must choose that, to read, which is most suited to us. In fact, the proper choice of what to read is one of the great things that we should strive to attain during our college course. The student who reads nothing aside from his studies, except perhaps the college papers, will come far short of getting all that can be gotten out of his college course. He should learn how to go to the English alcove in the library and enjoy himself for a spare hour with the English classics. He should know how to get the best out of the periodicals. He should become a sort of index to the library.
The Judges for the State Oratorical Contest.
A committee of the State Oratorical Association, consisting of one member from each college in the association met at Topesa Saturday afternoon to choose judges for the coming state contest.
These are the judges agreed on; Judges of thought and composition, Judge Earle, McPherson; Prof. Naylor, Wichita; Dr. Spencer of Cooper Memorial College, Sterling.
Judges on delivery: Judge Ady, Newton; J. R. Burton, Abilene; E.W. Hoch, Marion.
The alternates on thought and composition are: J T. Burris, Ottawa; A C Heat, Franklin College, Franklin, S. D; Bishop Vincent, Topka; Rev. Everest, Hutchinson; C B.Cubbison, Kansas City, Kas; J S. Cunningham, Osage City.
The alternates on delivery are: Chester I. Long, Medicine Lodge; Rev. Foulks, Satina; Rev. Swenson, Bethany College; Linnsburg; Willis Gleel, Tepeka; Mr. Morrill, Hiawatha; Mr. Sheridan, Paola.
Pharmaceutical Society.
At the meeting of the Pharmaceutical Society Thursday, Prof. Sayre gave a lecture on hypnotism. He has studied the subject particularly with regard to the difference of modern scientific hypnotism from its earlier forms such as the Old Mesmerism and Brandism, and his lecture was therefore very interesting to those who are interested in the development of this important medicinal agent
hur of monthly session last. Friday.
A debate on the expediency of annexing the Hawaiian Islands occupied the time, Mr. L., W. Baxter advocated annexation, being opposed by Mr. C S. Griffin. The discussion by the leading speakers led to a spirited discussion by other members of the Seminary,—so spirited as to make the meeting one of the most interesting of the year.
The Historical Seminary.
The Microscopic Soiree
The Historical Seminary held its regular bi-monthly session last Friday.
A large number of students attended the magic lantern exhibition of microscopic slides, given by the Science Club last Thursday evening. The slides shown were of great interest and profit to all present. The Science Club promises one or two more such exhibitions during the school year.
Before Running Away
From cold weather, inquire of local agent Santa Fe relative to cheap rates for a winter tour to Texas, New Mexico or Old Mexico. To follow the sunshine may prove cheaper than buying hard coal. It don't cost much to try.
OUR STUDY WINDOW.
It is an evening in early summer. The drooping sun, with its wealth of golden light, is slowly gliding behind the western green topped hills. The traffic of the day has ceased. The quiet of approaching night is welcomed by the drowning hum of the locust. A boy and girl are strolling the road, which is well shaded on either side by a row of full grown maples. They are negroes. The boy has that jaunty, careless air so common to the colored race. His companion is of that class of girls who, impatient at the slow advancement of their young lady hood, seek to aid its evolution by prematurely assuming long skirts. As they pass, we catch a bit of their good natured banter. The girl is speaking teasingly:
“O. yo’ kaint foo’ me. We saw yo' las' night undah dat er lam' pos. Sech a crazy thing! Vell says: ‘Wall wat a fool!”
"Fool! Nervy!" replied the boy, but showed no sign of indignation at the epithet.
"Ya-as" drawled the girl, "Fool, dat
jes wat yo' look like."
They pass on, we can hear no more. But their light hearted laughter still rings out in the clear evening air, and, as it comes to us mingled with the self-contented chirping of the cricket, the cheerful twittering of the birds and the merry voices of the children playing at a distance, we realize enew the artless happiness of nature's simple creatures.
\* \*
Lowville was a quiet little town whose inhabitants seemed to have no ambition further than to doze through the hot weary summer days until the declining rays of the sun permitted them to come out into the open air and water the flowers or have a friendly chat over the fence with a neighbor. The business part of the town also showed this same lack of energy. Standing at one end you could look the full length of Main street and easily count the number who were foothardly enough to venture out in the heat, or whom necessity had driven from their homes. The business men could generally be seen standing in the doors of their various stores, mopping their faces assiduously. One, perhaps with his shirt open at the throat, would be trying to create a breeze with the large palm leaf fan he held in his hand. Another might be gazing vacantly down the street, not with any expectation of a customer, but simply because he could not do anything else, so imbued with that lethargy hot weather brings.
There was however an oasis in this desert of business. One day of every week Main street was filled with farmers wagons. Life must go on, however intense the heat of the summer sun, and on Saturday the rough handed sons of the soil brought their air-burnt wives to town to do their weekly trading. At these times the stores presented quite a lively aspect. The merchants threw aside their fans and pocketed their handkerchiefs. After having carefully waited on the women, they offered them chairs and fans. For these country women were accustomed to rest before starting out on the long ride home. The stores were their resting places. Here they exchanged friendly greetings with neighboring farm wives, fed their babies, and treated the small boys to sticks of candy.
On one of these days a group of men and women stood talking before a counter in the largest dry goods store of the town. There was a young man in the party, who was leaning against the counter but paying no attention to the conversation. As he glanced idly around the room his eye was arrested by a placed hanging above the counter directly opposite him. The placard read: 'No sheet music taken back or exchanged.' Evidently interest, he left his lounging position and shambled across to the opposite counter.
' Do you keep sheet music?' he asked.

"Yes sir" replied the clerk, at the same time attempting a clerk's smile.
"Got the 'Man in the Moon?"
The clerk looked at him questioningly, but he, misinterpreting the glance as an answer in the negative, went on.
"Well, give me 'After the Ball.'"
The clerk still looked doubtful, and taking down the music catalogue, blaudy asked.
"Vocal or instrumental?"
"Either one. Don't matter," said our country friend.
After a few moments search the clerk replied that neither of the desired pieces were in.
"All right," stolidly answered the youth as he left the counter.
The disappointed customer resumed his former careless position, but the expression of his face plainly showed his chagrin at not being able to carry back to his country friends the songs that were on everybody's lips.

The proper pronunciation of words of our own language requires daily study. Every time we hear or read a word, the meaning or pronunciation of which is not known to us, we should make it a point to go to the dictionary and learn both. Just as the spelling of words is changing every day, so is the pronunciation. The tendency is to spell words more nearly as they are pronounced, but it will be a long time before colonel will be spelled kurnel. It is no wonder that foreigners find it so difficult to learn the English language, when we consider how many words we have whose pronunciation is the same, but whose meanings are so entirely different. Take the word rain, and just think of the confusion that must arise from hearing rain, reign and rein, all pronounced alike. Certainly there is need of reform in our present system of spelling and pronunciation.
IN THE READING ROOM.
They were oblivious to all the world; for that moment, they lived only for each other. It was a touching sight, their complete forgetfulness of their surroundings in the first draught of love's intoxicating cup, and nearly every student in the reading room—and it was full—stopped in his study to watch the happy couple sitting side by side between the two long tables. He was "from Jawuson county." it was plain, and had not wholly passed the Freshman period of abbreviated trousers-legs and coat-sleeves, of cowhide boots and cellulol collars. She was slider and her shoulders stooped, or perhaps it was only due to her leaning forward so eagerly to listen. He was so tall, however, that he could better lean across; and he was doing so until their faces were all most together. The similarity of their complexions was remarkable; each face looked as if it had been spread over with a layer of pumpkin mixed just ready to be dipped into the pie-pans.
Without doubt the interest that drew them so close was mutual. A month before, nothing could have drawn his attention from the book that now lay open but unused, beside him. She held a magazine in her hand, but her eyes scarcely reted on it, except when she dropped them beneath his strong gaze Their voices sometimes were low, sometimes swelled into an undertone that could be heard to the farthest corner. Occasionally they laughed happily together, and, as their conversation went on, her features lost the scared expression that was usual to them. A librarian stood at the table and watched them. A quizzical smile hovered upon her face, but she retrained from disturbing them, even when their talk was most annoying. An assistant laughed and whispered. "Actually, he has forgotten that he does not know where to dispose of his hands."
A Senior leaned back lazily against the steam pipes, and watched them over his magazine. Time and again he caught their eyes and thought they would know
he had been watching them, but eviden-
ly were too much engrossed to think of that. Two girls sitting closer to them
lurgbed about at some of their actions,
but it did not disturb them.
Presently the Senior got up and tried to pass out between their chairs, but found them too close, and had to go back and around the table. So they batted on delightedly in the stream of their affection. Students went and came about them, and librarians eyed them warningly, but without effect. They could hear nothing but their soul's voices, see nothing but the soul within each others eyes. One by one the readers went out, until but two or three remained, and still the two pale yellow heads hung close together. The six o'clock bell rang without awaking them from their blissful communion, and only the thrice-repeated call of "Reading room closed" roused them from their rapture. Then, as if suddenly becoming conscious of all the attention their owners had attracted, the mixed pumpkin complexions flushed to a deep crimson. The girl looked as frightened as usual, and the hands were valiably trying to find where they belonged, as the heavy boots clupped awkwardly out behind her into the hall.

FOOTBALL NOTES
Princeton and Yale play on Thanksgiving.
All should have gone to Kansas City
Thanksgiving to see K. U., play M. S, U.
Yale has a record of winning 118 games out of 121. The total score is 5520 to 92.
Other games: At Denver, D. A. C, 30,
School of Mines, 12. At New York,
Lehigh, 32. North Carolina, 0. M.S. U.
, 24. Pastime A. C., 12.
The standing of the teams in the Quad-
rangular league is as follows;
Games won. Games Lost.
Games Won. Games Lost.
K. U. 2 0
M. U. 1 1
I. U. 1 1
N. U. 0 3
Thus, K. U. stands a good chance for the pennant.
Yale defeated Harvard last Saturday by a score of 60. This is their seventeenth victory over that team. In the first half neither side scored. The captain of the Harvard team was injured and had to leave the game. In the second half, Yale played an offensive game and succeeded in scoring. The game ended with the ball on Yale's 35 yard line.
It will not be long before our football enthusiasts will have to give way to college oratory. Very little has yet been done among the students in the line of oratorical training. Since chapel orations are no longer required, and our literary societies arouse so little enthusiasm, the oratorical flame has been almost extinished. We must, however, send a representative to the oratorical contest who shall do credit to our University, and the sooner action begins, the better.
Are you still loyal to K. U? Are you at all interested in what is happening daily on Mount Oread? Do you appreciate the STUDENTS JOURNAL? If so, kindly evince your appreciation by sending a dollar at one to citizen of the Business Managers. We cannot waste more time urging this matter and if your dollars are not forthcoming we will conclude that you do not care for the STUDENTS JOURNAL, and will cease sending it. If this is marked it means you!

Stylish Coats.
The styles of coats and capes have changed more this fall than ever before in one season. Coats that were in the height of fashion early in September are not considered just the thing to day. Many merchants make the mistake of buying large quantities of some particular style of a garment that stirkes them favorably for the moment and later on are very anxious to get rid of them at any price. The customer who buys of such a merchant is always the loser. A. D. Weaver makes it a point to buy what the people want and his trade on cloaks this year has been enormous. People like to trade at Weaver's on account of the exclusive styles shown and they know that what they buy, whether a cloak or a dress will not become common. Every express brings a few new garments to Weaver and there is no question but what he has the coat stock of the town.

EDITOR JOURNAL: -Permit me thus to give the following solemn admonition to the young women of the University who on going out, marry, settle in a University town, and take students to room.
Do not let your desire for order cause you to muddle with the student's room. No matter if you do find the floor seated over with shoes and cast-off trousers; no matter if the dressing case is hidden beneath the heap of collars, cuffs, and ties that has been accumulating for a week past; no matter if the dictionary stand is in the middle of the flooring; no matter if a grip is sitting beside it, half its contents piled out on the carpet. Leave everything as you find it, if you would not be responsible for the eternal destruction of a young man's soul; for if you give way to your feminine instinct to straighten up, it will take your roomer not less than a week to find where the things have been stowed away, and in that weck he will get the habit of profanity so firmly fixed upon him that he probably will never conquer it.
It is a melancholy fact, that you may work all day and have everything in such apple pie order that the room will be a very paradise of cleauliness, and yet not have a thing where it ought to be. You don't snow a thing about fixing a man's room, you haven't the least idea of how he likes to have his things arranged. What? It looks pittiful to see a man's room all to n up, and no one to keep it in order? Bless your dear hearts, ten to one he knows just where things are; and if he doesn't, he will take it kindlier of you if you let him put his own things into the order he wants them. He will be grateful for your good intention, but he will swear wildly about the arrangement.
But if on cannot refrain from "fixing up" his room, at least keep your hands off his table. He may stand your hanging over his dress suit a lot of heavy clothing. He may endure to have his dress shirts doubled three times across the bosom and stuffed into a drawer full of underclothing,—to have his collars and ties strung along the top of the dressing bureau,—to have his photographs and decorative knik knacks changed from the way he has arranged them, and rearranged in a way that would make a Choctaw Indian smile pitingly. He may put up with this and more, but when he finds his table "cleared off"—his books shut up and his references lost, his notes carefully mixed, his answered and his unanswered letters put together, his favorite picture turned away from the front of the table and set facing the stove,—then his long suffering spirit will rebel and there will be trouble. Whatever may be said in justification of interference with a student's room, interference with his table is little short of presumption, and if landlords will remember this, they will individually and as a class, be regarded much more kindly by their student roomers.
SUFFERER.
Why Henry Watterson Did Not Come
LOUISVILLE, Ky. Dec. 1, '93.
Mr O. Templin, Lawrence, Kas.
Dear Sir,—We have just returned from Mr. Watterson's residence and found him in bed. There is a prevailing rage of la gripe here and he is suffering from an attack. We wired you to this effect and will arrange to give you a date in January or February at same price. If this suit you, advise us and we will let you know when he can come.
Yours truly.
So. LYCEUM BUREAU.
ATHLETICS
Baker defeated Wesleyan last Saturday by a score of 44.0.
This year our team resembled that of Iowa too much to win a game.
The Topeka-Lawrence High School game was postponed on account of bad weather.
Croxton, who won the walking medal on the annual field day meet last year, will attend K. U. next term.
The football season is now over and the boys are not sorry. Although we did not get the pennant, we feel safe in saying that the boys are satisfied with their numerous broken noses and sprained limbs.
During the season just closed there occurred in England twenty-three deaths from injuries received while playing football, and three deaths from illness contracted on the football field. -The Nation, Nov. 30, 1893. In America the number actually killed in the game foots up to nine, while many were mained for life.
Arrangements are now being made for an interstate field day meet in Kansas City next spring. K, U, stands a good chance of winning the walking race through Croxton, and the high pole vault through Shellenbarger; the short throw through Haul; the hitch and kick through Matteson; the horizontal bar contest through Ogg.
The prospect for K U's, base ball team was nevr better than it is now. Last year's never defeated record will be upheld this year. For battery we have Gear and Kelsey, who acted in that capacity last year and who played in the league games last summer. Of the other old players, there are Chamberlain, Matteson, Williamson, Steinberger, and Hogg, white Smith, Shellbarger, Wag-omer, Pampel, Holdren, Phillips, Hamili, Strother, and Kimpton, all promising players.
It is high time that K. U. should learn that it takes more than a "Never defeated" record to play football. This year we have five defeats to our credit out of seven games played. What our Athletic Association wants is a good football team consisting of six professional players as Ann Arbor has, and also a 287 pound center rush. We want five coaches from eastern colleges. We want to "hog" the opposing teams as Denver did, and to keep a man like Toomey, or one who has taken lessons under him, and then insist upon having him act as referee.
Are you still loyal to K. U.? Are you at all interested in what is happening on Mount Orend? Do you appreciate the STUDENTS JOURNAL? If so, kindly evince your appreciation by sending a dollar at once to etiher of the Business Managers. We cannot waste more time urging this matter and if your dollars are not forthcoming; we will conclude that you do not care for the STUDENTS JOURNAL, and will cease sending it. If this is marked it means you!
Third and Last Call.
Try a Texas Trip.
To San Antonio, Austin, Ft. Worth or El Paso, and get a touch of summer in winter. The Santa Fe is offering some low rate tickets with liberal conditions as to limit. Texas may be just the place you are looking for, as a home or for investment.
The new students will find all the daily papers, magazines and periodicals, as well as the finest line of cigars, tobacco cos. pipes, base ball and athletic goods at Smith's News Depot, Eldridge House block.

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.
The sermon before the Young Women's and Young Men's Christian Association Sunday night at the Baptist church was a marvellous exposition of the fundamental principles of Christianity. Dr Mabie is truly a giant among the many able champions of Christianity to-day.
It is only one week till the Christmas vacation. We sincerely hope that no member of the faculty will burden his students with three or four volumes to read during the holidays. It may be well to suggest a few good things to read, but please do nos say, 'I wish you would read xxxx.'
Some thieves who are enrolled as students are sneaking books from the library to use at home. These thieves have no intention of stealing the books—no, that would be dreadful—they will return them when they are through with them. They are simply stealing the privileges of other students. This is the basest form of theft. Who steals my purse steals trash but he who steals my opportunity to refer to a required book steals the very essence of my privileges in college.
THE communication regarding the duties of a student's landlady would perhaps be of more value if our paper were mailed to the landlads rather than to the students. We suggest that, if any student is troubled with having his study table "rid up" and things put into such disastrously neat order that nothing can ever be found, he occasionally leave on his table a copy of the STUDENTS JOERENAL so folded that the communication will be easily seen.
THE fact that Henry Watterson has postponed his date with us on account of sickness, has led a number of students to think that the Lecture Bureau management is a body of cut throats, thieving money from honest students. We desire to say for the benefit of these few misinformed students, that the lecture course is offered to the people at actual cost. It is under the control of the University, and any money made on the course this year will be applied toward a better course next, while money lost this year will be taken from next year's receipts. There is no cause whatever for complaint, therefore.
THE football team has gone out of training for this year. The record made is not as high as usual, yet it is no mean record. Although the management of the team has been good on the whole, yet a few mistakes can be pointed out by even an uninitiated observer. It will be remembered that before the two critical games of the season our team was mercifully slaughtered. Before the Baker game, and while our boys were yet untrained, they were brought against the champions of the whole west. Then, before the Missouri game for the pennant, our men were again led to their slaughter in the encounter with Ann Arbor. Who ever heard of an eastern team of
any standing playing its most doubtful game at the beginning of the season? Futtner, the opinion of many of those who have given the matter consideration has been that the extra money squandered on the training table might better have been burned. We withhold the reasons and merely mention the fact in order to bring it to the attention of members of the Athletic Association.
On the other hand many good moves have been made. The same management to whom we have laid the blame for the mistakes should have due credit. The advance in the game fee proved a success and the imposers of the increased fee should have double credit from the fact that they had to take the step directly against public opinion.
STUDENTS who take studies only in order to get through the University, and work only enough to pass, make no difference in their treatment of English, though it might be expected that even they would recognize the importance of thorough work in this branch. The English language is more than our own language, though that it is our own ought of itself to cause hard study; it is one of the leading languages of the world, both as regards literature and diplomacy, and, if the opinion of the eminent Dr Schroer is right, it is destined to be the common language of the world. If anything ought not to be sighted, then, it is English, and the JOURNAL hopes,—both for the sake of the students and of the peace of mind of its editors, present and future,—that English will be given ill the attention a study should receive, whether other studies are or not.
THE last number of the Columbus Star Courier contains, on its front page, over half a column of State University notes. The notes were furnished by a University student. Brief paragraphs are written about each of the following subjects: The Chancellor's residence, the new library building, the University extension work, he lecture course, the Phi PsI chapter house, the Law School, the faculty concert of music. These articles as written set before the readers of the Star Courier the work of the University in the best possible manner, and thereby not only advertise the University but give valuable reading matter to the patrons of that paper. Let us again emphasize the fact that there are hundreds of students here whose home papers never make mention of the University and yet would be glad to receive items of news from us. Go and look at the young man who furnishes these notes has done, and thereby do a favor to your home editor, to the Umi versity, and to yourself.
Prof. Canfield at Chapel
It seems to me that possibly some who complain that the chapel service is not profitable for them are in danger of a vice from which I fear our University life is suffering in other domains. I have watched with misgiving the signs of the growth of the spirit that expects to receive all things as its right, and make no return. The University finds it hard to impose fees to afford an enlarged means for instruction because everything is demanded free as a right. It is notoriously difficult to raise money among the students for purposes directly connected with public University life. In the merely business world where it shows itself thus this spirit is sufficiently hurtful. It is essentially the spirit of panperism. I am always suspicious of the one who wants to get things in any other way than by paying the honest and just equivalent, and to have such a spirit fastened upon the representatives of liberal culture could not fail to be a menace to our integrity. But when the same spirit shows itself in the intellectual and moral region its effects are worse. It is entirely incompatible with vigorous and robust life in those regions.
He who expects to have his culture pumped into him through a number of lecturer's spells will never have an intellectual life worth the name, and he who expects to get charged with religious and moral electricity every morning, like a Leyden jar, by just being brought into an electric circuit will not have a very robust character. Two students go to a lecture room and hear the same world, but they bring away very different amounts. The one who took his two talents with him brings away four; the one who hid his before he went, things away just what he carried—nothing. People reap in this world as they sow. They receive pretty much in proportion as they give. Let us not then be impatient with the chapel service because it does not entertain us, or transform us, or illumine us, or inspire us, or do some other wonderful thing with us, or do any thing at all with us, or for us without our cooperation. But if we are interested in the kind of object which that service sets itself to accomplish—and I do not well see how we can help being—if we are agreed to the supreme value of righteousness, if we are convinced that we have no greater business than to get this idea into our lives, into our conduct every day, if we admit that business for ourselves, if we find its successful accomplishment not all too easy, if we are seriously minded to increase and temper and strengthen the resolution, purpose, will, affection that alone will give us steadiness and progress in its pursuit, then I think we may reasonably come to chapel and find it of use. Then we can improve the opportunity it offers every day to get out of the old rut for a few moments, to rise out of the blinding and perplexing mists of petty interests and to take our bearings again by the everlasting stars, to see where we have laid our course wrong, to distinguish between what is shifting and what is permanent, to strengthen ourselves by contact with the lives and words of those apostles and martyrs of righteousness in whom the tides of spiritual life were fullest and deepest, to resolve with ourselves to be truer to our highest view of things and to make fewer compromises with expediency, to inspect our moral armor and see where it has given way and where it needs reinforcement, to open ourselves by conscious effort of our will to the great spiritual forces, to put ourselves in harmony with the divine movement that makes for righteousness, to be stirred with the feeling of gratitude and praise. And such exercise as that will not fail, I think, to be of some service for the most practical business of our lives. Do you say that all this you can do quite as well each one for himself and there is no need of chapel for it? Hardly I think. There’s help in numbers. The sentiment of community of purpose and effort stimulates and strengthens. And we derive from it a corrective agent upon impurity or a missionary that might arise as if one could work out his salvation aside from those human relations that bind him at every point to his fellows. But even if we could do quite as well without chapel, would we? Do we? I doubt it. Occasion means much in our lives.
The University Lecture Bureau regrets the necessity of reporting to the students whom it represents, that it finds it impossible to carry out the course which it had arranged. It used its best efforts to secure si eakers, artists and companies of the best standing and was able to offer a course which is felt to be of exceptional excellence. The expense involved was something more than one thousand dollars in been about one hundred and seventy-five yielding less than three hundred and fifty dollars. It is plain that there is not a sufficient demand among the student body which it aims to serve to warrant the Bureau in going on with its work in the face of the certain large deficit.

I know a number of persons who have dumbbells in their rooms, but I do not know of a single one who uses them regularly. But I know there are a good many who come regularly to the University to exercise in classes. The chapel service presents us regularly the occasion and opportunity of a kind of exercise and culture that bears upon our most serious and practical business. It is not possible that we can make it useful for ourselves when no one else can?
Announcement.
OUR STUDY WINDOW
There seems to be a general impression that in a new country like the United States, where everything grows freely, almost spontaneously, as by a new creative impulse, literature had better be left to develop itself without criticism, as practically it has been left—every tree to get as high as it can without reference to shape or character. We say, as practically it has been left. For while there has been some good criticism in this country of other literatures, an application of sound sch harshhip and wid comparison, there has been very little of this applied to American literature. There has been some fault-finding, some ridicule, a good deal of the slashing personality and the expression of individual prejudice, and like and dislike which characterized so much of the British review criticism of the beginning of this century—much of it utterly conventional and blind judgment—but almost no attempt to ascertain the essence and purport of our achievement, and to arraign it at the bar of comparative excellence, both as to form and substance. It is not denied that there has been much ingenuous and even just exploiting of our literature with note of its defects and its excellencies, but it will be scarcely claimed for even this that it is cosmopolitan. How little of the application of universal principles to specific productions! We thought it bad taste when Mathew Arnold put his finger on Emerson as he would put his finger on Socrates or on Milton. His judgment may have been wrong, or it may have been right,—matter of individual taste we would have been indifferent to,—it seemed as if it were the universality from which our National vanity shrunk.
It seems that the thing American literature needs just now, and needs more than any other literature in the world, is criticism. In the essay by Mathew Arnold, in which, as is remembered, he defines criticism to be "a disinterested endeavor to learn and propagate the best that is known and thought in the world," he would have had smooth sailing if he had not attempted to apply his principles of criticism to the current English literature. And this application nade the essay largely an exposition of the English Philistine.
Now we have not in the United States the Philistine or the Philisianism, at least not much of it, and for the reason that we have no tradition. We have thrown away, or tried to throw away, tradition. We are growing in the habit of being suficient unto ourselves. We have not Philistinism, but we have something else. There has been no name for it yet invented. Some say it is a satisfaction in superficiality, and they point to the common school and to Chautaquag, the French say it is satisfaction in mediocrity. At any rate, it is satisfaction that has a large element of boastfulness in it, and boastfulness based upon a lack of enlightenment in literature, especially a want of discrimination, of the discernment of quality. It is a habit of looking at literature as we look at other things; literature in national life never stands alone; if we condone crookedness in politics and in business under the name of smartness, we apply the same sort of test—that is, the test of success—to literature. It is the test of the late Mr. Barnum. There is in it a disregard of moral as well as of artistic values and standards. You see it in the press, in sermons even—the effort to attract attention, the lack of moderation, the striving to be sensational in poetry, in the novel to shock, to advertise the performance. Everything is on a strain. No, this is not Philistinism. It is sure, also, that it is not the final expression of the American can spirit—that which represents its life or its literature. We trust it is a trans
We have our own standards; if we choose, a dollar is sixty five cents, and we resent the commercial assertion that a dollar is one hundred cents.

ient disease-An extract from an article by Charles Dudley Warner in the December number of Harpers Magazine.
Smith Spent Thanksgiving at Home.
Smith spent Thanksgiving at Home. Smith came into his room and slammed the door shut, with a self satisfied air. He had just finished a series of quizzes successfully and the Thanksgiving vacation was at hand. He promised himself five days of enjoyment unhunted by thoughts of study.
Sitting down and leaning back comfortably, he began to evolve plans for this short vacation. First, there was the football game between his college and one from a neighboring state. This would take him to Kansas City, and white there he might as well stay over to attend the theater. Then, there was that party at Miss Harrison's, he couldn't stay away from that. By the way, he must call on Miss Brown and obtain her company, otherwise the party might be dull.
With this end in view he brought out his razor and began stropping it as he wondered whether Miss Brown would be at home or not. The razor being sharpened, he covered his face with lather preparatory to shaving. Scarcely had he begin, when the door opened and an expressman entered and deposited a box on the floor. It was an ordinary soap box, but it looked curious to Smith. Forgetting his soapy face, he stood surveying the wooden package. His curiosity was greatly aroused and he began to explore the mystery. The cover was soon off, and next to it was found a letter. Opening it he read,
"My Dear John:—I am sorry you are so pressed by your studies, because we would like to have you with us Thanksgiving, but I suppose you can't be here. I send you some of the dinner anyway. Hoping you will not ruin your health by study, I am MOTHER."
Below the letter was a nicely brownee turkey, surrounded by pies, cake, and cranberry sauce. Wherever there was room, nuts and fried cakes were crammed. A home like flavor filled his nosrills. He began to look backward over his college life. His summer vacation had been spent in Maine on a fishing trip, and in Chicago. He had gone with the Glee Club on its Christmas trip last year and the previous Thanksgiving vacation had been spent about as he intended to spend this one. It was more than a year since he had been at home. He scarcely realized how the time had flown, he had been so busy seeking his own pleasure. Yet his mother thought his studies were keeping him at work. It looked like it! His thoughts went back to the home circle. He remembered his brother Bob's football team which he had coached during his last visit. His little sister, with whom he was a prime favorite, must be growing out of memory. The last time he had been at home he had noticed how gray his father was becoming. How did he look now? Then he thought of his mother. How she wanted to see him, yet she was afraid to take him away from his studies!
A queer feeling came over Smith. He looked at his watch. In half an hour there would be a train for his town Washing the drier lather from his face, he hastily packed a few things in his valise and started for the depot.
The Smith family were just gathering around the breakfast table the next morning when the gate slammed and strange footsteps were heard coming up the walk. In a moment the door opened. Smith was at home.
The Petition to Abolish Fees.
Before the students, assembled in University hall Thursday morning. Chancel for Snow gave a report of the action taken by the Board of Regents regarding the fees.
The Board of Regents gave a hearing to the four representatives of the five schools praying for the abolition of the fees. The subject was thoroughly discussed, and the hearing was given the members of the faculty from those departments in which the fees have been charged.
The Board of Its agents have requested me to explain the actual condition.
There seems to have been some misapprehension regarding the fees. It has been reported that the money received from fees has not been properly appropriated.
For instance, the students of the law school believed that the money was not spent for books. This report is without ground. I can show you the bills. Every dollar paid by law students has been devoted to the purchase of law books.
Regarding the pharmacy school, fees are charged to cover the material consumed in the laboratories. Every dollar is devoted to the purchase of this material. An account is kept. The student is credited with any surplus of money paid in.
The same is true of the chemical laboratory fees. Regarding the physical laboratory fees, no itemized account of the material consumed by each student has been kept, but a fee is charged just sufficient to pay each student's equal share of the entire cost.
In reference to the library fee, last year it was imposed upon the law students. This year it is imposed on all students. A large part of the students would like to have their five dollars returned. The library fee has been imposed on the same principle as other fees have. In a large library, there is much wear and tear, and this sum is charged to make good the losses.
When it was found that the law lecture fee was really a tuition fee, it was remitted. These other fees are not tuition fees. We furnish material for the laboratories at a much lower cost than it can be purchased elsewhere. If there be no fees, the laboratories must be closed or else material must be obtained elsewhere by the students.
When a student withdraws from the University before the end of a term, a proper portion of his fees are returned.
This is the case with the library fee as well as with others, and shows that they are not tuition fees.
THE LEGAL ASPECT.
Attorney General Little says that these fees cannot be collected. On the other hand, the preceding attorney general says that they can.
The Board of Regents voted yesterday to make no change in the fees.
It is very damaging to the University to have erroneous reports circulated. There is great difficulty in getting money from the legislature. We asked for $10,000 a year for books. We obtained $2,500. We asked for $2,500 for Profes sor Dyche's work. We got $1,500. It is difficult to get funds.
It would be well to impress upon the students of the University the fact that there is opposition [n] the legislature to the giving of higher education free. Two years ago the law school came near being abolished, but was saved by great effort.
What would be the effect if the fees were refunded? We have over $75,000 a year, which goes almost entirely to pay salaries. We cannot buy materials with this money. The fees paid now amount to about #2,500 a year. If this must be refunded, we must reorganize the faculty, dismissing several members, and thereby cripple our work. Our appropriations are made now for the next two years. No student wants to see the work crippled. In comparison to other State Universities we are subject to strong competition. What student wants us to be more poorly equipped than they?
The state is growing in love for her University; yet if it were announced that all fees had been removed, a movement would be made in the legislature to impose a heavier fee system.
We, at present, pay over a hundred dollars a year for the instruction of each law student. Ought this student to complain at a fee of $000?
Prof. A. R. March, formerly of this University, once wrote me to this effect;
You are in danger of increasing the number of students so greatly that the
quality of the instruction will be impaired. When the cost of instructing each student falls below one hundred and fifty dollars a year, the school is on the down grade. At present, our cost for each student is less than that amount.
"Inconsistent Reformers."
A gentleman who has taken a decided and praiseworthy stand against certain customs prevailing in University society was last week criticised through the press for alleged inconsistency because, upon an occasion that would not only have caused nine hundred and ninety-nine out of every thousand to do likewise, but would have justified them in so doing, he varied from the rule he has been advocating. It is an old saying, that the reformer has all the world on his back. He may not have the whole world, but he certainly has every snarling critic with neither enough earnestness nor enough courage to himself pronounce against and maintain a contest with wrong; and ten to one the whole burden of the cry kept up by the critical pack is "Inconsistency! Inconsistency!"—a very safe cry, because, if by chance they have any records for their present to be inconsistent with, no one is interested enough in them to look the records up from the refuse in which they are probably buried. To such people, there are never explanatory or justifying circumstances for any seeming departure from what they themselves set up as being the adopted standard of their victim there is nothing that should be taken into consideration in forming judgment as to the propriety of his action; there is no point at which they think he can stop short of the most extreme enforcement and observance of his supposed theory and if he in any way acts differently than they conceive he should, they are ready to fall upon him tooth and nail to ever having dared to preach a change for the better. Fortunately, such critics soon cease to have any effect except with those who are themselves of like nature with the critics. The world find the reformer's ideas as good, the reformer as earnest, as if there was no such carpeting depreciation; and presently the petulant disarranger finds that, in the midst of his snappish quarrelling, reform has been adopted and reformer endorsed.
Meeting of the Board of Regent.
The meeting of the Board of Regents was a harmonious one. Every action that was taken was carried by a unanimous vote. The members were all present. It was decided to finish the attic of Snow hall to accommodate Prof. Dyche's collection of animals. The cases in the room already occupied by the zoological museum will be arranged so as to make more room.
The horse "Comanche" will be put into a glass case and kept in the museum until the government pays the $600 promised for mounting him.
Arrangements were made to continue Professor Olin as instructor in pedagogy through the year at a salary of $300 The work in his department will count as a full term.
$300 extra were appropriated to Professor Dyche for expenses of his department for the present year.
Mrs. Mary M. Clarke, of Kansas City, was appointed instructor in elocution for the second term.
Profs. Marvin and Murphy were authorized to give one months field practice to Freshmen, Sophomores and Juniors at the close of the academic year.
Students taking the work will go into camp. This course is optional for those who are already students; but will be required of all future students
Themes will be required of Freshmen, Sophomores and Juniors in the Civil Engineering course. Seniors in the same course will be required to write a professional thesis the second term.
One year's work will be offered to students of the school of arts in materia medica and pharmacy, as an optional.

Oh thw weird and noisome sea
Breaking forever on desiate strands
Chaingrill still the same old songs,
Throbbing eternally on quivering sands.
Be still!
Be still!
For how mournful is thy cry
When the form in the tempest flies
As a parting soul wont sigh,
Or in the distance the music dies.
Be still!
be still.
Why the throbbing, restless sea
Purifies do bent in chord, with three
The wave of life shall ever flow,
With thy rythm to eternity.

In the recent Soph. Latin test one student commenced his paper with the following.
Come, O, Muse, be then not late
Help this Latin to translate,
Clear my mind, inspire my pen,
Happy will I be, Amen.

Teens fall from angel eyes,
And that is why sometimes there fall

Columbia has 600 graduate students, the largest number in attendance at any college in the United States.
The faculty of the University of Minnesota at a recent meeting decided that no marks should be given out through the office during the year. If any student receives a mark less than 80, it is to be given him by the professor of the department. At the close of the year the record books are to be handed to the registrar, who will record the year's standings.
The largest meteorite in this country has recently been placed on exhibition in the Harvard Museum. It weighs half a ton and contains microscopic diamonds. The weekly paper at Washburn college, Topeka, is dead and will soon be buried in the grave of oblivion. The monthly paper, The Mid-Continent, will be continued as heretofore.

"Behold! what a great fire a little matter kindleth." By some piece of carelessness or ignorance on the part of some exchange editor, somewhere, the report was started that Yale College is preparing to relegate Greek to a secondary place in the curriculum. This report, surprising in its nature, has been tossed to and fro in numberless college papers, until it passes for genuine coin. How false the report is may be known by the following words from a man who for several years has been and still is a prominent professor in Greek at Yale College: "The statement that Yale is preparing to relegate Greek to a secondary place in her curriculum is entirely erroneous. Yale has four full professors appointed for life, to teach Greek only, besides two other instructors, and they are all busy and expect to be more s."—College Rambler.

everyone looks at him. Even if we did

Chas. H. Yale's "Newest Devil's Auction" is acknowledged to be one of the most expensive attractions traveling. Not only does the actual company number over fifty people, but there is also the extra auxiliaries, male and female, the working crew of stage carpenters and assistants, property and baggage men, calcium and lime light operators, wardrobe keepers, armorers who are regular members of, and travel with the company, outside of the artists and stage people. Then there is the entire scenic production, which is carried and furnished by Mr. Yale. The special scenery cars, which are the property of the propietor and manager. The scenery vans, the calcium plant, in fact the entire para phenalia, complete in every detail of a mammoth show piece. The "Devil's Auction" has always had the reputation of being a record breaker, possessing the happy faculty of drawing money in all kinds of weather and at all seasons of the year, and the probabilities are true this engagement will be no deviation from the rule.

LAWRENCE GAZETTE CO., PRINTERS
THE STUDENTS JOURNAL is glad to know that some steps have been taken toward the organization of a University press association.
IN THIS our Christmas issue, we have not attempted to outdo any previous venture in college journalism in our University; but simply to present to our readers a few things out of the ordinary routine of work. We have had new illustrations made at considerable expense, preferring to have a few new pictures than to fill a number with old second hand plates.
WHILE this edition of the STUDENTS JOURNAL is being printed, the mass of the students will be enjoying themselves at home. Perchance, some Freshman is now sitting beside the old home fire place telling his mother all the wonderful things he has seen and heard during his first three months in college. No doubt at this very moment many a Sophomore is explaining to his father a few financial matters and insisting that to do his work properly it will require almost unlimited funds.
The Juniors are home playing with their little sisters and brothers. They have become somewhat pessimistic regarding man's ability to obtain a comprehensive knowledge of all subjects, and are only to glad to free their minds from the cares of their college work.
Then the poor seniors, the meekest of all people. Their steady job is about completed and a search for other employment must be begun. The question is "Shall they study law or medicine or theology," or "Shall they become merchants or bankers or school teachers," or "Shall they seek employment on a farm." No doubt to-night they are talking matters over with "the home folks."
But the college editors—where are they? Down in the basement of the printing office giving the devil a
few instructions. It is midnight and the paper is not yet printed; and it must still be folded and mailed, a four hour job. Poor, unfortunate college newspaper men! Little does the great world of college students know of their hardships, working all night that the students whom they serve may read, the next day.
Yes, they will go home after the paper is out, and spend the vacation with their faces to the wall, studying up something for the next issue. Although hundreds of miles from the University and printing office, yet they will seem to hear the telephone crying "copy."
The last issue of the Yale Courant contains an article on college life in the west. The article, though inaccurate in many details, draws a very fair contrast between the western college student and the eastern.
The statement that western students are illly prepared for college is hardly applicable to Kansas, with her highly perfected High School system. Is not our lack of an Exeter or an Andover or a Concord well made up by such High Schools as are to be found in Topeka, Kansas City and Lawrence?
The writer says that western students are incapable of doing as thorough or as broad studying as eastern students, yet western schools graduate a large percentage of prominent men. This statement is surely paradoxical.
The Yale student takes off his hat to his tutor in daytime; but at night throws a stone through his window. The western student does neither.
The rivalry between the open literary societies of the western colleges is spoken of as an excellent feature; but unfortunately, K. U. can take to herself but little credit in this respect. She has but one literary society. Regarding athletic sports, the western man takes no interest in gaining or holding a place on a crew, team or club. His rewards for success are not yet sufficiently great.
The writer says that few colleges in the west have more than a monthly or bi-weekly paper and that these are often of a low standard. Such expressions as "Say Bill, what was you doing at Mollie B's last night" are not in accord with the highest form of journalism.
There is no doubt but that Messrs. Preyer, Penny, Farrell and Fischer can make music. Misses Noyes and Parry played beautifully, and the singing of Miss Minnie Summerfield and Mr. E. E. Hopkins deserves especial mention.
THE school of music created a very favorable impression upon the minds of a thousand of the best citizens of Lawrence by rendering an exceedingly creditable program at the annual Christmas concert, Tuesday night. The Glee club showed that just a few days more of the hard training they have been doing will make them the envy of every other glee club in the west.
This is the second free concert given by the music school this year, for which we are indebted to them.

THE STUDENTS JOURNAL.
THE FOOT BALL SEASON OF 1893.
To the casual observer, the season of 1893 for the K. U. football team has seemed one of disaster simply. Regarding this, however, it may be of interest to ask several questions. Are appearances as black as they look? Are we able to trace our defeats to any cause that can be remedied, and what are the prospects for the future?
It was seen at the opening of the season that our old time rivals, weary of continued defeats, had all procured professional coaches and were settling down to hard work. Baker had secured at great expense the services of Mr. Thomas, an ex-Michigan guard; Mr. Crawford formerly of Yale, Michigan, and Baker, sought to instill football lore into the Nebraska mind; Mr. Robinson, of Tufts College, Mass., took the Missouri team in hand; while Iowa enjoyed for a short time the expert advice of Sport Donnelly, of Princeton.
As a result, all these teams showed in their play more or less marked improvement over last year's form; but none more so than Missouri.
Kansas, with the exception of a few days coaching from Mr. Heath of Kansas City, had no outside aid.
When the candidates for the team appeared on McCook field this fall, the prospects were bright. Half of the old team had returned and there were a fair number of applicants for the vacant positions. When regular work began, this number was materially reduced. Accidents and indisposition toward labor thinned the ranks until, for a large portion of the time, it was almost impossible to get twenty-two men out to practice.
Another thing showed itself here, and that was the average lack of weight among the candidates for the team. Hardly any heavy men appeared on the field. Now, a line man must be quick and agile, but he must also have some weight. It is manifestly impossible to make guards, centers, and tackles out of one hundred and fifty pound men, be they ever so plucky. This lightness of line proved a severe handicap in several of the games.
September was spent by Captain Champlin in getting into shape the crude material, and his success in that direction was shown by the game with Minnesota, the champions of the northwest. It was a defeat, but one that brought no disgrace with it; and was characterized by the strong defensive game put up by the Jayhawkers.
Unfortunately, the promise made here failed us, for the work of the team from this time on began to manifest that unsteadiness that is fatal to success. The next three games,—with Baker, Denver and Iowa,—showed this only too plainly. At the same time, some of the work in the Denver game, both offensive and defensive, was of the highest type.
The fifth game, in which the strong Nebraska team was shut out 18-0 was a very creditable one. Here the team showed that it was capable of really good football It played a defensive game that was careful, close, and steady, and an offensive game that was strong, hard, and effective.
A week later, Kansas fell in with the University of Michigan, and met on Fairmount Park a large sized Waterloo. Ann Arbor's defeat early in the season showed that the local talent alone were "no great shakes" at football; but the management rose to the occasion. It gathered together the Association funds, and soon persuaded several youths who had distinguished themselves on the gridiron in other colleges that their education was incomplete,and that they needed a few small cupolas such as could be added nowhere better than at Ann Arbor. The aforesaid youths also saw the need,—and came.
The combination under the efficient coaching of Mr. Barbour of Yale gave Michigan the strongest team that has ever worn the yellow and blue.
The first half of the Kansas-Michigan game was the best exhibition of football that the southwest has ever seen. The play of the Kansans was hard and full of life; the men often broke through and tackled the runner behind the line, the interference was good, and the team worked together well. With the second half, the team play of the Michigan eleven, aided by their great superiority in weight, began to tell. The wearers of the crimson made a strong and plucky fight, but to no avail, they were outclassed.
But one more game now remained to be played, that with Missouri on Thanksgiving day.
The Missouri team was in the best condition, while Kansas was crippled by the loss of some of her old players. Taking everything into consideration, it seemed the toss of a coin, which would win. The fates were against us, and we lost—lost because of the same fatal unsteadiness that has cost us so much this year. At times, Kansas played a brilliant game, and then again it seemed absolutely impossible for her to take the sorely needed brace and get the ball on downs.
Yet she was capable of playing winning ball, and ought to have won.
By this no disparagement is meant toward our opponents, who won by hard, steady work their well earned victory. Missouri deserves a good deal of credit for her sportsmanlike spirit: Undiscouraged by defeats early in the season,her men buckled down to work,and that patient hard work gave her a winning team.
The causes of this year's defeats are not hard to find. There was lacking in the team unanimity. It seemed impossible to get concentrated action.
Too great unwillingness to get down to hard work and train properly was manifested by some of the players.
There was too little of that spirit which fights for every foot and every inch, and which defends its goal line with desperate and dogged resolution. No better illustration of this spirit was ever seen than that given by Yale on Thanksgiving day. Though greatly outclassed, their indomitable Yale spirit prevented Princeton's crossing the goal line but once.
Our team was not to blame for this. It was a tide too strong for Captain Champlin to stem, strive as he might.
The secret of the whole matter lay in the support of the team by the college. It was not properly backed up by the University.

"Behold! what a great fire a little matter kindleth." By some piece of carelessness or ignorance on the part of some exchange editor, somewhere, the report was started that Yale College is preparing to relegate Greek to a secondary place in the curriculum. This report, surprising in its nature, has been tossed to and fro in numberless college papers, until it passes for genuine coin. How false the report is may be known by the following words from a man who for several years has been and still is a prominent professor in Greek at Yale College: "The statement that Yale is preparing to relegate Greek to a secondary place in her curriculum is entirely erroneous.

The college makes a football team, and it is college spirit and loyalty that will pervade that team. A University divided into factions that take a lifeless interest in the eleven, that yell over a victory and kick over a defeat with equal vigor, will never produce a winning team. There should be throughout the college such a spirit of loyalty that the eleven will be enthused and each man feel that he is fighting not for himself but for the honor and glory of old alma mater.
Such a spirit would bring out on the field not a dozen men, but scores. It would make a man work to hold his position from the beginning to the end of the season. There would be no lifeless, half-hearted playing on the part of the man who thinks he has a cinch on the position. And, too, the side lines would be filled with an enthusiastic body of supporters who came to cheer, not to coldly criticise the playing.
A large portion of the old team and substitutes will return. Meanwhile, it would be well to keep an outlook on the promising material that is likely to enter the University from the preparatory schools. Every man can help in this. Use your influence to induce men to enter K. S. U. rather than some one of the smaller institutions of the state.
Now what are the prospects for next year? The past season has given us a good deal of valuable though bitter experience by which we can profit. The material here is good; better than many an eastern college of established reputation possesses.
It seems probable that the services of a thoroughly competent coach will be obtained. Now a coach alone will not bring victory. He must have the backing of the University. What the captain and coach say must be final. They should have control of the style of play, methods of work, and selection of the men. You may be assured that they will do nothing but what seems wise and for the best interests of the team. And they should be supported by the prompt, willing efforts of every man. This means hard work, every night, rain or shine.
Despite the handicap of the past season, Kansas has shown that she can play good ball, and that she has in her the right sort of spirit. The first half of the Michigan game proved this.
Next fall the crimson will again come to the front; and you will see Captain Williamson head the champions of the southwest; and mayhap in the not far distant future of the West.
A word regarding amateur sport may not be out of place here. There seems to be a growing tendency among some of the western institutions to import paid players from other colleges, and to play professional coaches as regular members of their teams. Michigan, Nebraska, and Baker are the most open offenders in this direction. That there is no rule forbidding such action is no excuse for so doing. It is a practice wholly subversive of the interests of true amateur sport, and should be stopped.
There has also been an unfortunate amount of dispute and wrangling over questions of refereeing and umpiring, manifesting too much of that spirit which
says, "Win a game fairly if you can, but win it anyway." It is a spirit wholly unsportsmanlike.
It should not be forgotten that college athletics are supposed to be carried on by gentlemen. Kansas as the leading college of the southwest must take a lead in these matters and keep at a high pitch the tone of amateur athletics.

THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS GLEE AND BANJO CLUB.
Scarcely does the football season end with the disbanding of the teams after the final Thanksgiving day struggles, than college organizations of another kind suddenly come forth to mingle with melody and rhyme in the gladness of the Christmas holidays. It is very appropriate that Glee clubs should make their appearance at this, the merriest time of the year.
However, although the Glee and Banjo clubs come into prominence so suddenly, it must not be thought that their formation is an easy matter. Ever since the first days of October the members of the University Glee and Banjo club have been working away steadily to make the organization worthy to represent the University of Kansas. Starting with much better material than that possessed by former clubs, the Glee club has given its whole attention for at least half the time to voice culture, before the practice of pieces was taken up at all. The result is that the quality of voice of the whole of this year's club was equalled by only two memmers of the club of last year. Prof. Penny says: "The Glee club this year, is musically far ahead of any previous club going out from the University. Each voice has been selected with great care, and all the members have received private instruction from me. Mr. Farrell has brought the Mandolin club to a high state of perfection and its music will be entirely new. The club will be greatly strengthened by the presence of Mr. Farrell as solo violinist and Mr. Sears as elocutionist. The program is sure to please, as it contains some of the latest musical hits."

On the 19th the athletes of the club will join the University students of Brown county in a game of football at Hiawatha, where a concert will be given in the evening. The next day they will be in Marysville, the 21st at Frankfort, the 22d at Washington, and the 23d at Concordia. Christmas night will be spent in Beloit, and probably the 26th at Minneapolis and the 27th at Salina, although full arrangements had not been made with these last two places a few days ago. The next points are Abilene on the 28th, Junction City on the 29th, Topeka on the 30th, and Manhattan on New Years day. From Manhattan the club may go to Holton and give a concert on the 2d and then return to Lawrence. In addition to the concerts given on their holiday tour, the club will give here on Friday, January 12th; at Kansas City, Missouri, on Tuesday January 16th; at Olathe on the 17th; at Ottawa on the 18th; and if the faculty gives permission, at Burlington on the 19th and Emporia on the 20th.
Mr. W. H. H. Piatt is the business manager of the club this year, and under his charge, its financial success is a certainty, if success is possible.
Leaving Lawrence on Friday Dec. 15:h, the club will give their first concert that evening at Leavenworth where Prof. Farrell's great popularity will ensure them an enthusiastic reception. The next evening will find
GONE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS.
Gloves ALL Styles, NewSwell AT Abe Levy.
The last ball had rung, but the little German professor, wholly unconscious of everything going on about him, save the conjugation of a verb, showed not the slightest intention of dismissing the class. Rising from his seat at the desk, he walked to the window, emphasizing every step with a nod of the head, and a "Very good. Very good. Very good, indeed, Miss Christy."
Looking out of the window, and to all appearances watching the scattering snowflakes as they whirled around the corner of the building, but in reality not seeing one of them, the professor continued the recitation by calling on "next" to give a synopsis of sitzen. "Next," finding it difficult to get starred on the jingle, as he called it, rather apologetically substituted for the synopsis, the fact that the last bell had rung over five minutes ago.
"Is that so," said the professor, and he hurried back to his desk "Why I had not even heard the first one yet. I beg your pardon, young ladies and gentlemen, for having detained you. In advance, you may prepare the whole of the next lesson The class is excused."
At the sound of the familiar words, which were to set free these restless creatures for two whole weeks, most of the boys and some of the girls made a rush for the door. A moment later the lower halls were ringing with their voices.
John Reed had not been in such a hurry to leave the class room. I can see him now as he sat there wrapping up his books in an old newspaper, in order that the snow might not get on them. With his toes turned in he presented the general appearance of awkwardness His clothes were shabby, but clean; and from under that bushy red hair, these peeped out an honest, bright, though freckled, face He was repeating to himself "One week more and I shall see her."
When John reached the lower hall he found a great comotion there. A crowd had gathered around the bulletin
board, and a tall Freshman was reading in a loud voice the following notice :
"Holiday vacation Dec. 21 to Jan. 3, inclusive."
"Well, I like that," said one.
"The change don't make any particular difference to me," said another, "but I do object to the principle of the thing."
John could not believe his ears, but he was forced to believe his eyes. For there before him, in great big blue letters, was the notice that was to spoil all his plans for vacation. The jests of others about not having enough money to pay the extra board bill, and about having to walk home, were serious considerations for him. His plans had been made and expenses calculated to a penny. Nothing remained but to go home on the next Friday as he hid planned to do, miss three days of school, and probably as many quizzes
He drew a sigh and passed out of the building. In the meantime the German professor up in the top story
"I wonder," thought John, "why it is that no one ever takes me by the arm and says, "Come along, old fellow!" I suppose its my clothes, but perhaps its the color of my hair; it is enough to keep them off."
The disappointed boy walked slowly to the other end of the hall, where a long row of hooks held the boys' caps and overcoats. It was not difficult for John to find his cap, for it was the only one under which there did not hang some kind of an overcoat. But he had an old fashioned rod wollen "comforter" which did service as an overcoat, and he wrapped his throat and ears up in this. If he had no overcoat, he had the satisfaction of knowing that his doing without one and other necessities, had made it possible for his mother to go on a visit to Maine. And it was she whom he was counting on seeing one weeek from that day.

had come to his senses, and was now watching the students as they hurried out of the yard, and down the hill. Catching sight of one end of the red "comforter" as it switched about in the wind, it recalled to his mind the satisfactory recitation that John had made that day.
"That Reed," thought the professor, "is a fine student, but he hasn't the constitution to take him through school. He has a starved look. I wonder where he lives." At this moment John disappeared behind the stone wall and was gone as quickly from the professor's thoughts.
Going down the hill, in fact all the way to his room, he reconsidered the matter of vacation. He could not afford to miss three days of school. At the same time he must meet his mother at Moody, as he had expected to, on her way home from Maine, otherwise she would be disappointed. What was to be done. One thing certain, he could not be in two places at once. He struck upon a plan, but one which which would require the spending of more money than he had. He would have his mother come to see him on her way home, and then, when all the exercises of the school were over, they would go to their little home together. By such an arrangement he must take into consideration the extra cost of living for two for five days, and the cost of a round trip ticket from Moody to Wallace, the town in which he was living. Seven dollars would just barely be enough and the next question was, how to earn it. Passing down Main street John's heart leaped as he

"Wanted! 100 men on the ice!"
Passing down Main street John's heart leaped as he caught sight of the following:
"It's a go!" said he. "I'll write her this afternoon!"
"It's a go!" said he. "I'll write her this afternoon! His rooming place was at last reached, a small two story and a half house, consisting of two rooms below and two above. Mrs. Brown, who lived in the house, washed for a living and was only too glad to rent a room. To-day he would not bother about building a fire or getting any dinner. He would just take time to write his mother of his plans, and then go down to the river.
Fortune seemed to favor the ambitious boy. He succeeded in getting work. A large section of ice had been taken out of the river already, and some one was needed to stand on guard and warn people away from places where the river had not frozen over again, or where the ice was not sufficiently thick to bear a person up. Work on the ice went on both night and day, and it was John's work to stand on guard during the night.
"You want to come prepared for a cold job," said the man with whom John made the bargain. "Put on yer overshoes, an' all the overcoats you've got, an' you'd better take a little somethin' as 'ill keep yer awake. But yer look like a chap as has got grit, an' I think you'll do."
John hurried back home to get something to eat, and to prepare his lessons for Monday. One thing alone worried him now. It was the possibility that his letter might not reach his mother before she started. But it occurred to him to write to the ticket agent at Moody, and ask him to look for his mother on a certain day, give her the ticket which he would send her, and see that she got on the right train for Wallace. He felt sure the agent would do it because Moody was only a railroad crossing, and the agent was not kept so very busy.
"Won't she enjoy going over the University," thought John. "I expect she'll be as surprised as I was at seeing so many books."
And his mind wandered off to a book he had seen that morning in the reading room. He wondered if he could not read most of the books in the library by the time he was a Senior.
"But see here, John Reed," said he, "if you're going
to school, and earn that money at the same time, you've got to stop this mind-wandering business!"
And he did. He worked steadily till five o'clock, then put the coffee on to warm, and made one meal out of dinner and supper. Even though his time was limited now, he washed the dishes and swept the bare floor.
"You must be about frozen," said she. Pull up that rocker there, and put your feet in the oven. I'll have some coffee ready in a minute; that'll warm you up."
That he did find the job a cold one is needless to say. The night was bitterly cold, and although the snow had stopped falling, the wind continued to blow from the northeast. It seemed at times that he would freeze, but by running and jumping he managed to pass the weary hours of the night. At six o'clock he was glad enough to go off duty and hurry home as fast as his stiffened joints would let him. Mrs. Brown was glad to see him for it was the first time he had ever staid out over night. John did not hesitate about telling her where he had been, and gladly accepted an invitation to sit down and warm.
"It won't be any inconvenience to me," thought he, "to put on all my overcoats," yet at the same time he secretly wished he had one just for that night.
Mrs. Brown went out into the next room for some potatoes for breakfast. When she came back John had gone up stairs. She knew too well how he disliked to accept any favors, hence she did not call to him to come down and take breakfast with her. After a couple of hours she decided she would go up stairs and see why everything was so quiet. She found John lying on the bed, and no fire built.
"Aint you feeling well," said she. "As soon as i get your fire agoing, I'm going to bring up some coffee."
John insisted that he was well, and had merely got thoroughly chilled. But in his own heart he was afraid. During the week there had been moments when everything had swum before him, but he thought it was only biliousness. But what if she should get sick and after all not be able to earn the money? He tried to get up, but every muscle seemed stiff or sore.
In the afternoon, when Mrs. Brown came up, she found him awake, but with a very high fever. This time John confessed that he felt very badly, and told her how he must get well right away, for his mother was coming the next Friday.
"I guess I'm just as well off here in bed, as anywhere," he thought. "I wish I had that book now, but in spite of himself he dozed off to sleep."
The motherly woman nursed him as faithfully as she knew how, but every day in spite of the doctor's efforts and Mrs. Brown's excellent care he grew worse. On the third day the fever had become so intense as to cause ravings. During these spells he constantly talked of his mother, and when he became quiet again would dreamily gaze at the roses in the wall paper. At times he would try to follow the outlines of the roses with his parched fingers, but the exhausted hand would fall heavily on the coverlid. He talked very little. One day he said to Mrs. Brown.
"Do you see a woman's face in those roses?"
"Yes." said she.
"Well, it's queer I never noticed it before. That's my mother's face. If I should happen to be asleep when she comes, you'll wake me up wont you? We'll want to begin to visit right away."
He was asleep when she came, but neither the tears nor the caresses of an anguished mother could awaken him.
That Friday morning, when the little German professor called the roll, and inquired if anyone knew what had become of John Reed, some one replied,
"I think he's gone home for Christmas." c. s.

THE NEW BUILDINGS.
Before another year goes by, the equipment of the University will be increased by the addition of three new buildings. The Chancellor's residence is practically complete, the library building is rapidly going upward, while the physics and engineering building has just begun to go downward. Over a year ago, Mr. Spooner of Massachusetts bequeathed to the University something over the sum of $91,000. With this the Board of Regents decided to construct a permanent residence for the Chancellor,and a library building. The contract for the construction of the Chancellor's residence was let to W. R. Carter of Lawrence. The total cost is approximately $12,000. Chancellor Snow will be given possession of this building during his lifetime, and afterwards it will be occupied by whoever is chancellor, but only as long as he is in office. The residence, as it now stands completed, is two stories high with a cellar under the whole. It is constructed in frame after the manner of wooden houses, veneered with pressed brick, and trimmed with red sandstone. Complete, it is a handsome dwelling, with a high garret, two large bay windows, and a front porch. It will be finished on the inside in elegant manner, with all modern conveniences. The woodwork, mantels, and several finished fire-places are but a few of its beauties. Lighted throughout by gas and electricity, heated by hot air, furnished with electric bells and speaking tubes, it would be hard to name anything more to be desired.
Perhaps the most useful and ornamental structure belonging to the University, will be the library building. Situated on the hill northeast of the main building and just west of the Chancellor's residence, the view from its windows will be as fine as could be desired. The building will be two stories high, with a high basement. On the second floor will be a public hall; on the first, reading and newspaper rooms, with seminary and toilet rooms in the basement. In addition to the main building, there is built at the east end a book-stack, in five eight-foot stories, accessible from the reading room, and cut off from the main part by fire walls. The whole is built from quarry-faced ashler stone, with red sandstone trimmings. The book-stack building and the bookcases are of perfectly fire-proof construction, the bookstack being an open frame work of iron. This is similar to those in use at Harvard and the University of Michigan. The capacity of the book-stack will be over 100,000 books. The building is lighted by electricity throughout, and by gas everywhere except in the bookroom. As the building stands at present, the walls are up as far as the second story of the main part. The cost of this building, finished up as it will be, approximates $80,000. The deeds to the library and Chancellor's residence are held by the Board of Regents as representatives of the state.
The plans for the physics and engineering building have been completed only to such an extent that the excavation could be begun. This work was commenced about two weeks ago, and the hole in the ground has been growing, although it has not yet reached the rock.
This building, with what we have already, will give us perhaps the best facilities in the west for engineering; and there is no doubt that the attendance in this already flourishing department will now be greatly increased. The building is located some seventy-five yards southeast of the main building, on the point of the hill, and will afford every accommodation to the various branches of the departments of physics and engineering. At its last session, the legislature appropriated $50,000 for this building, and at the present rate of construction, this is sufficient to make it one of the handsomest in the state. It will be owned by the State just as the principal University buildings are owned.
Thus the University has made a good step in its advancement. Already occupying one of the highest places among State Universities, having in our faculty men of the highest standing, the standard of instruction has necessarily been raised still higher by these increased accommodations. Other buildings are to follow; an addition to the chemistry building is already needed, and will undoubtedly soon be obtained. In the future, more or less near, Mount Oread will be covered with beautiful buildings. Fame will carry the beauty and glory of K. S. U. far over the land. Already in our dreams we see astronomical laboratories, dormitories, a gymnasium, an art museum, and many others. And all indications point toward the realization of our dreams.
THE LIBRARY.
The library has been fulfilling its part in the University work this year. Evidences of its usefulness are apparent by the intelligent habits which the students are acquiring in the use of books. It is, indeed, an art to know how and where to find the material one needs. The more care a student gives to this art the better he can handle the subjects under discussion or under treatment in class work or in theme work. The discriminating use of books is an education in itself and comes only by experience with books.
The library contains about twenty thousand volumes and is steadily increasing. Six hundred new books have been added this term and orders are now out for about two thousand more. Thus far the new books have been mostly in the department of philosophy, sociology, civil engineering, law and pharmacy, but all of the departments will soon receive new additions.
Two gifts have been received; a box of books from Prof. Francis J. Child of Harvard University, through Prof. W. H. Carruth, and another box of books from Miss Kate Stephens, formerly Professor of Greek in the University of Kansas, but now a resident of Cambridge, Mass.
Two new variable stars have been discovered by Herr Fr. Deichmueller in the constellation of Cygnus. The average magnitude of one of them is somewhat above, and of the other somewhat below, the eighth, and the total amount of change in each case seems a little more than a magnitude.

1. The term "Biodiversity" refers to the variety of life forms on Earth, including plants, animals, fungi, and microorganisms. Biodiversity is crucial for maintaining a healthy ecosystem and providing food, water, and shelter for all living beings.
2. Climate change is a significant threat to biodiversity. It affects the availability of habitats, disrupts migration patterns, and causes extinction of species.
3. Habitat loss and fragmentation are major threats to biodiversity. They limit the space that animals and plants can live in, making it difficult for them to find food, shelter, and breeding grounds.
4. Pollution is another major threat to biodiversity. It can contaminate soil, water, and air, harming both plants and animals.
5. Conservation efforts are needed to protect biodiversity. These efforts include habitat restoration, protected areas, and community-based conservation initiatives.
6. Monitoring and monitoring systems are essential for tracking changes in biodiversity and understanding their impact.
7. Policy changes are necessary to address threats to biodiversity. These policies include regulations on illegal trade, mining, and pollution.
8. Public awareness campaigns are important to raise public awareness about the importance of biodiversity and the need to protect it.
9. Education and training programs are needed to help people understand the importance of biodiversity and how they can contribute to its preservation.
10. Partnerships between governments, communities, and organizations are necessary to share information and resources to protect biodiversity.

"Behold! what a great fire a little matter kindleth." By some piece of carelessness or ignorance on the part of some exchange editor, somewhere, the report was started that Yale College is preparing to relegate Greek to a secondary place in the curriculum. This report, surprising in its nature, has been tossed to and fro in numberless college papers, until it passes for genuine coin. How false the report is may be known by the following words from a man who for several years has been and still is a prominent professor in Greek at Yale College: "The statement that Yale is preparing to relegate Greek to a secondary place in her curriculum is entirely erroneous. Yale has four full professors appointed for life, to teach Greek only, besides two other instructors, and they are all busy and expect to be more s."—College Rambler.

K. U. AT THE FAIR.
K. U. was there, bright and early in the campaign. She was there to usher in the greatest exposition on earth and she remained with it during its last struggles with the vandalizing exhibitors eager to flee the scenes of six months' merriment and education. At so great an educational event it was but meet that K. U. should stand by early and late, with a willing, helping hand.
K. U. blood and ex-blood was on hand to lend impetus to the mental building of the great project. She was there when the dirt began to fly from the lowly shovel; when the windlass began to creak and the hammer to resound; when the mobile staff rose into enchanting forms; and best of all, when the busy workshop was turned into the greatest school of the world, and its doors thrown open to myriads of students. Then it was that K. U.'s bright young blood surged proudly in the veins of guards and "pushers," visitors and cicerones, all eager to help the grand affair along and all proud to be called a part of the great machinery which delighted and improved.
There were K. U. people as adjuncts of the great affair and there were K. U. people among the anxious and rushing visitors. Let us take a few glimpses at the scenes which the adjuncts presented. There was the spectacle of the guides, who were royally waited upon by a professional cicerone upon every occasion which brought them to the grounds. The K. U. contingent had a guide prospective who, being such an adebt at "working" while in his alma mater, was well schooled in the craft, so as to be able intelligently to ply his practices upon the official guide instructor. He plied the official hard with intelligent questions, all the while showing the intense interest he should in the subject. After visits of several weeks the guide official began to instruct by rote his protege. Again the guide-prospective's K. U. habits stood him in good stead, and without taking a single note he learned all and remembered all about the number of nails used in the construction of the Liberal Arts building, the length of the Columbian statue's toes, the number of hairs in the brushes used to decorate the transportation building arch, and much other valuable information. I say he remembered all of it—all he wished to. This guide was wise, for he saw the fair five weeks and was everywhere royally waited upon, besides being paid for his time. At the end of five weeks he resigned.
Of chair pushers we had a plenty, and jolly good fellows they were until away they sped with snatches of song as the wage thermometer fell. The scrawny book worm who went there with the intention of recovering his health was always being good naturedly imposed upon by the others. To strengthen his muscles he was given the heaviest "corpses" and the steepest grades. He was a timid fellow who always debated if the thing to be done was just the thing which his dignity would allow. Often he must pinch shut his eyes, so hard had he to push—as a fair Lawrence beauty or a Freshman belle passed near him. One day he had been thrice mortified by inopportune meetings with old acquaintances, but greater than any other was to be the one to follow. A bit of humanity which grocers'scales could not weigh and which it would require two Inneses' stores to supply with dress goods, came to the chair stand and in a delicate voice which betokened her African descent asked for a pusher. Our unfortunate emaciated was the victim selected, and as he arranged the chair for her he noticed that there was a preponderance of jeweled appendages, a splendid silken frock, a forty dollar hat, blondined hair, a Pozzoni's face over the one her African mother had bequeathed to her. She was very talkative and questioning, in tones of voice which won her the admiring gazes for which she "fished." Suddenly came the youths' most worshipped professor. Pusher attempted to steer his heavy load aside but alas, somehow the wheels did not operate and as the duo-visaged beauty caught sight of the sporty professor, she at once began to cast her line, so to speak, for an admiring glance or smile.
Pusher's heart clogged his speech; just then the big beauty was successful, for the professor turned, smiled and straightway came toward her. The youth quaked, his strength failed, just then the search light was turned on the administration building dome and I saw no more.
Pusher's shock-haired, strong-limbed athletic colleague feared no weight, as he himself swore he could carry an entire eleven for a five-yard gain. His intrepidity was rewarded by exceptional numbers of 'Varsity young ladies who flocked to his chair. He was sure they could see that he belonged to the first eleven. One day, aye, I dare say more than one, but I saw him only on one occasion,—one day, then, he seemed to walk nearer the basket seat than usual and to know so very much about everything. To be sure, the occupant of the seat was no invalid, neither was she too large to enter the lists as a sprinter, yet somehow she wished to be wheeled; not one day but several, not by several pushers but by one. To this day, his room-mate says that at stated times this ex-pusher lolls empty-handed in his easy chair and with a dreamy stare views the frescoed wall of his apartment, oblivious to everything. No not everything; for the postman's whistle trills and he starts. Such is life.
One day as I happened to be in Midway—I was there looking for a friend you know—I caught sight of a spry little Sophomore who with creased "twousers" and damity gloved fingers was following his huge silvered cane through the motly crowd. I hastened after him, losing him, finding him, yet getting no nearer. He stopped. I hurried along. This time I'd surely get him. He started away, I called to him, but the Turkish theater advertiser made so much noise I could not be heard. Still I followed. His cane led him between gorgeous portals, but I was stopped, for I had not the requisite little pastboard. I procured it and got inside just in time to see one of his severe professors tap him lightly on the arm and scowl at him across his gold bowed glasses—they all wore glasses there. The gamey Soph flushed, stammered "why,how 'd'do," and tried to get away. But the quick tutor mind set this down as a time to help the lad and so he looked frigid as he ex-

pressed his surprise that the youth should be so intimate with the American beauty upon exhibition. Then I turned to study Worth's Parisian doll and the oriental beauties.
The spindle-legged, scholastic miened pusher again crossed my path as I left the Government building. With legs dangerously bent and determination written on his face, he pushed hard but the buxom lass of forty summers was too heavy or the grade of the bridge was too steep. He relaxed his efforts; backed the chair some paces; got well started and made a rush. Surely he would succeed, but alas! Three yards up the steep curve and he slackened, his face set hard, his angular arms snapped shut a la jackknife, and his legs—oh I turned away for fear that the strain would snap them. They could bend no further. Oh! he conquered. To the top he got, exhausted but then, oh then, away it sped. The hand which reached for his "sweat-mop" jerked frantically after the flying mass. Screams rent the air, and fearing arrest as an accomplice I hurried toward the Intramural.
Just then I encountered a Senior Pharmic cigarette holder. Delighted to see each other! Oh, yes, he'd met lots of people he knew. No, not exactly whom he knew, but there were endless numbers who knew him—especially all the Waukesha and Tutti Frutti girls; but he thought it so strange that he did not know them.
Each evening as the white city began to prepare for sleep the Kansas building was fitfully illuminated by a flickering light which led the naturalist to his corner of mounted mammals, as if to take a last look before giving in to Morpheus for the night. But see, he goes straight to a large rock and with seeming superhuman strength removes the slab and proceeds to enter the uncovered cave for the night. Dear to him are the works of his hands, and thus they swallow him up.
As I was leaving the grounds a boisterous hand fell on my shoulder, sending a thrill through my tired body for I am no pugilist, and was ruled out of the foot ball team. The depression was followed by elation as I recognized the face of a K. U. newspaper man—a true friend. He took me to the second basement of his room, as he called it, where he had rented a small bare room. A few boxes, cots and some bedding served to give it the air of "Furnished Rooms to Let." Here I was in glee, for there were assembled the past, present and future of K. U. journalism, basking in the luxury of passes and living off of the paid subscriptions. Soon a "local editor" rushed in and I expected him to fly to his box and write up a sensation for the next issue, but instead he calmly unrapped his bundle and disclosed meat, bread and pie. There we feasted, knowing full well that in the coming term some of us must starve while delinquents waited to pay up.
It was while on my way to the railway station that a bright busy-body stopped me and talked "fair." At K. U. he was always a favorite, so I listened. He knew much about the fair, and told me how he had spent four weeks at the fair, paying for everything and keeping the sum total down to $24.78, this including a bag of popcorn and an Inter Ocean.
As he left, my thoughts went to my empty wallet, and as if by telepathy a gay "special" who had "flunked straight" stopped me for a "V" to help him home. Coming there he struck Midway; liked it; did it thoroughly, riding thirty-four times on the Ferris, sliding twenty-nine; and in just eight days and fifteen hours had spent his six weeks' allowance. He asked if I thought the part out of Midway would pay seeing.
I was being rolled along, rapidly nearing home and trying to arrange in my mind what I'd seen, for I knew my wife would want to hear all about it. Just then a tailor's model came through the car and recognizing me leaned up to my chair to chat a little. He must have felt my thoughts or was anxious to let me know that "he'd been there," for he began to tell what fine faces he had seen, and in vague figures praised the great fair. He spent most of his time in the Liberal and the Fine Arts and the Woman's buildings, viewing the elegant displays of ever moving Kaleidoscopic femininity. The fair was a grand success; he enjoyed it hugely, but for the rest he would refer me to his trunk full of guides, maps, pictures, commentaries. When he left I decided to get a few guide books at once and present them to Mrs. DAN HERK.
SOME UNIVERSITY ORGANIZATIONS.
Like the University organizations in general the Science Club exists primarily for the students. Its name is a sufficient index to its work, it has to do with scientific matters generally, and receives any who are interested in science. It brings before its members matters chemical, botanical, zoological, astronomical, mathematical, whatever maketh the heart glad, not restricting its list of speakers and lecturers to students and members of the Faculty, but going outside the school for prominent men of the guild to "lead the meetings." To enliven its work, it gives special attention, between terms, to social matters. Then its "It" is brought forth, and great is the hilarity attending this annual festival. Post-prandial speeches humorous, poetic, eloquent, as the case may be, are followed by post-prandial pranks no less merry and perhaps even more enjoyed.
The "It" reigns supreme, and the why-seeking doubters for a time give up their search for universal laws and surrender themselves to the reasonless mirth of worshiping this unknown, un-nameable, and impersonal divinity. When the festival is over, though, they return soberly to their weekly meetings and renew their diligence to the principles of the club.
The Young Men's and Young Women's Christian Associations of the University deserve especial mention. These organizations have taken a higher stand this year both spiritually and socially. No student who is interested in the advancement of christianity in the University and the state can afford to withhold his support from these organizations.
The Seminary of History and Sociology, meeting every second Friday, is one of the most important associations of the University. Its members are, the instructors and the students in the departments of American History and Constitutional Law, and History and

Sociology, who read papers upon and discuss current questions at their meetings. Sometimes the Seminary is addressed by some speaker from outside the University. The purpose of the Seminary is to give a general knowledge of history, political economy, and sociology, as they are to be observed in modern life. Among the subjects with which the Seminary has this year been occupied are, the Annexation of Hawaii, the Division of Africa, the Opening of the Cherokee Strip, Principles of Early Federal Taxation, the Congress of Religions, and Silver Legislation. The officers of the Seminary are, director, F. W. Blackmar; vice-director, F. H. Hodder; secretary, E. D. Adams.
The Economic Seminary is closely connected with the work of the Seminary of History and Sociology, but is composed only of the instructors in the departments of American History and Constitutional Law and History and Sociology and the advanced students in these departments. Meeting every week, it devotes its chief attention to special economic study. Each member is following out some special work, upon which he reports from time to time, or concerning which he reads papers giving the results of his investigations. In addition to this, each member takes part in a review of current economic literature.
The Oratorical Association is an organization of fifty students each holding a one dollar share. Not more than twenty-five shares may be held by fraternity students. Non-fraternity shares must pass through the hands of the board of share adjusters. At the annual meeting held one week after the local contest, all students of the School of Arts who have registered in a book provided for the purpose, may vote for president, vice-president, secretary and second delegate to the state association. The orator receiving 2nd place in the local contest is first delegate. The present officers are president, Chas. S. Griffin; vice-president, Archie Hogg; secretary, Kate Riggs; treasurer, J. L. Cramer; executive committee, E. P. Lupfer, W. J. Coleman and W. H. Kutz.
The Pharmaceutical Society (President, T. H. Kelly; Secretary, Miss Lois Carlisle) meets every second week. Lectures by members of the faculty, and papers, reports, and discussions by students, are part of the work done. A program is arranged for each meeting. The society will present some very excellent work after the recess.
The Kent Club's omission from a list of the leading organizations of the University would be the omission of a very successful and most useful society. Having its membership wholly of law students, it is characterized by the law spirit. Organized as a debating club, it has held its course steadily. This does not signify, however, that its work is narrow. Dealing as it does with large numbers of important questions, it necessarily impels to no limited reading and investigation, as is proved by the excellence and depth of many of the addresses and papers. In addition to broad study and discipline in debate, the club also has continual exercise in that sine qua non of the lawyer, parliamentary
practice. The club has this year offered a course of public lectures, of which three have already been given. From this short paragraph, therefore, enough can be gathered to show that the Kent Club is in a prosperous condition.
Of University organizations, the most active and at the same time, the most successful, is the Athletic Association. From its beginning in '89, it has been open to all, and any Freshman can tell its proceedings in full. When the Association was organized, athletics had occupied very little attention in K. U. Under its management, however, great advances have been made. The success of the football interests is well known. Base ball has also received no less attention. Tennis and boating are becoming popular, and will be carried on with renewed interest in the future. Track athletics have been somewhat neglected. The various Field day exercises, however, which have been held under the management of the Association have been quite successful, and a movement is on foot to hold an inter-collegiate Field day meet at Kansas City, the various State Universities of the west to be the participants. While last year was a very prosperous one in the history of the Association it promises to be outdone by the present season. True, the never defeated record in football has not been maintained, but other material advantages have been gained, and the outlook for athletics in K. U. has never been brighter.
CRUMBS FROM THE TABLES OF VARIOUS BOARDING CLUBS.
Ever since I became old enough to read stories of college life and of college boys' pranks and to hear college songs, my dreams of life at college have looked forward not so much to the class room,—to the "mirth and song," to the refined and educated jests, to the good natured chaffing, the friction of minds in friendly contest for the "last word," which keep a man's wits ever bright and on the alert. When I reached K. S. U. I sought this spirit, but found it not—until I joined the eating club conducted by an organization which for the sake of ephony I will call the "Association for the amputation of appetites." "The keenest appetite amputated while you wait," might appropriately be the alliterative motto of the club. At this club, I find fun and nonsense flying about the table in great chunks, and it is the best aid to digestion ever discovered. "I began using it last September, and have used no other since." (I trust no one will say: That is no more a recommendation than that given by a tramp: "I used Pears' soap three years ago and have used no other since.")
The man who boards with a private family and studies a one and comes in contact with his fellow students in the class room only, is a student but not a college man, and he will carry away from school none of the "hilarious recollections" which a college graduate is always supposed to have in store. And it is for the benefit of these poor hermits that I should like to ask the STUDENTS JOURNAL to "divulge" some of the fun from our table.
At least, I think it is for the benefit of these. I should like to believe that my motives are unselfish. But I have found from carefully prepared statistics that from nine to

twelve per cent. of one's enjoyment of a joke comes from the pleasure of hearing it, and the other eighty-seven to ninety-one per cent. comes from the joy of springing the joke in turn upon some one who has not heard it. It is human nature to take a fiendish delight in the sight of a fellow mortal writhing in agony over some joke of which we are the perpetrators, so I am painfully in doubt as to the integrity of the motives that prompt me to indulge in this column.

While the A. A. A. eating club was still in the incipient stage, some one suggested that the steward had purchased a milch cow for the club. "Is that so?" eagerly inquired the newspaper man; "Mr. Steward, cough up that cow!"
I think the club never fully recovered from that cruel blow. One of the boys tried to equal it one day by announcing that "Prof. Canfield sat down on a girl to-day for misbehavior," but the attempt was immediately greeted with a silence so sepulchral that you could have heard it a block, and no one mustered courage for another "break" until after Dr. Corwin asked in his Hawaiian lecture if "it is proper for Mr. Cleveland to take Queen Lil. up in his arms and set her upon the Hawaiian throne."

"Mrs. X told me the other day," said the Funny Man, "that a well known Sigma Chi, who is not in school this year, boarded with her last year. He left a Bible and a pair of skates at her house when he went away. He sent for the skates last summer, but she doesn't think he has missed his Bible yet."

"I see by the bulletin board that the Kent club is going to settle the great questions as to whether slavery should be abolished and whether "The pen is mightier than the sword," announced the old school teacher a few weeks ago, heaving a sigh of supreme relief.
"You can't rely on that bulletin board," replied the club beauty, "even on the subject of calling. for your V at the office."
"Nor can you rely upon signs bidding you call at the office and obtain a guide," added someone who evidently visits the realm where, as Prof. Robinson says, Pluto and the janitor and other divinities reign.

"Prof. Adams spoke in our history class to-day of a certain county in Ireland, which runs north along the coast, and stops at Cork;" came from the man from the Big seventh, and one of the class responded: "That's very natural, a cork is always a stopper."

"Where is the missing link this morning?" "Hsaid he didn't feel like coming to breakfast. He called on his High school girl last evening and soon after he had arrived the girl's mother said: 'Can't you play the piano for Mr. L., Maudie?' "Why, mamma," frankly replied the girl, "I am afraid he might stay, if I did so." L. said he doesn't feel like eating any breakfast this morning."
THE COLLEGE WORLD.
ART.
The heart of man aye hungers through the years
For tender sympathy with its smiles and tears.
For that kind soothing touch benethen whose thrill
The soul looks up ennobled to God's will
The lonely labor of some stricken one at night
An unnamed angel's fingers mark with living light
Like morn 'dew-mirrored in each to grtired heart—
A kiss of heaven's own loving—and we call it Art.
—H. C. C. in McMicken Review.
HEALTH IS WEALTH.
A rounded cheek.
Where the roses speak.
Of a soil that is rich for thriving.
And a bosom so grand
That the wings expand.
Ill health of the body detying.
A breath like moon
When the crimson dawn
Is less, in the dewy sweetness.
A manner bright,
And a spirit light.
That show joy in its own completeness.
Oh, give me these—
Nature's own gifts—
And keep all your golden treasures;
For what is wealth
Compared with health.
Attended by its pleasures.
—Sadie Kimball in University Chronicle!
"The butcher's bill" of the last football season in England has been compiled by a gentleman in that country who kept as close a record as possible by reading the newspapers, and it fcots up a total of twenty three, not counting three other cases where death was ascribed to illness incurred on the football field.

The debating societies of Yale and Harvard will compete on neutral ground at Newport, by the invitation of the leading literary club of that city.
The girls of Smith College had a "Hare and Hound Chase" recently, in which fourteen girls ran thirteen miles.
The late Mrs. E. Shute has bequeathed to Lynn, Mass., the town in which she lived, $100,000 for a public library building.
At Union College chapel, attendance is to count the same as one-hour-a-week recitation in the selection of honor men.
The library of the University of Wisconsin is used at night by the students, the building being thoroughly lighted by electricity.
An examination was taking place for those wishing to enter Snail college, and according to custom one of the examiners took up his watch in one of the upper galleries. Thus, unseen by the students he had a view of every desk. Noticing one man cheating, he rang the bell and spoke thus "If the man who has been copying for the last twenty minutes will get up and leave the room, no further notice will be taken of the matter." A pause—then eighteen rose and departed.—Vogue.
The Oxford Magazine furnishes some statistics—whence collected we know not—with regard to those who were in attendance at Oxford from 1880 to 1882. The total number of matriculations was 2,289, of whom 589 never took their degrees. Out of 1,708 who did graduate, 565 are now clergymen, 225 lawyers, 76 solicitors, and 27 doctors.

The Language Conference includes in its membership the instructors in the departments of Languages, and students taking optional studios in these departments. Other persons sufficiently interested to attend regularly and do work may also become members. Its meetings are not, however, closed to those not members, but all who are interested are welcomed. Broadly stated, the work of the conference is, anything connected with literature and language. Discussions, original literary composition, criticism, reports, occupy the attention of the Conference at its meetings (they alternate with those of the Historical Seminary), and seldom fail to make them very interesting and profitable. The Conference has this year had before it for discussion a criticism of the late Professor Jowett's works; a discussion of the opening chapters of novels; an analysis of the nature of poetry of Bryant and Longfellow; a paper upon the alleged deism of Washington; and has also listened to some very interesting book-reviews. Prof. C. G. Dunlap is president, and C. S. Griffin, secretary.
The Memorabilia Club is an organization which has for its aim the collection and preservation of everything of interest to University people—that is, of everything not specially provided for. In accordance with this purpose, it takes beneath its ample wings the most diverse objects—the Totem Pole and the autograph letter of a sometime University celebrity. This scope is broad, and it is not to be wondered at that the projectors of the club have not been able to carry into execution all that was contemplated at the time of organization about three years ago. Its aim, however, is praiseworthy and the work that has already been done is not to be despised. Its collections include several albums filled with photographs of graduates of the School of

“Behold! what a great fire a little matter kindleth.” By *some* piece of carelessness or ignorance on the part of *some* exchange editor, *somewhere*, the report was started that Yale College is preparing to relegate Greek to a secondary place in the curriculum. This report, surprising in its nature, has been tossed to and fro in numberless college papers, until it passes for genuine coin. How false the report is may be known by the following words from a man who for several years has been and still is a prominent professor in Greek at Yale College: “The statement that Yale is preparing to relegate Greek to a secondary place in her curriculum is entirely erroneous. Yale has four full professors appointed for life, to teach Greek only, besides two other instructors, and they are all busy and expect to be more s.”—College Rambler.
