WHAT has become of the literary talent of the University? Students seem to forget the Courier is always ready to publish any worthy articles prepared by members of the University. Send your contributions to the editor.
If there is sufficient proof, and it seems there is, to substantiate the charges of plagiarism against the winner of the State Oratorical contest and the markings of the judges published in the State Journal giving Sears second place are correct, K. U. wins the contest. Why don't the local association take steps to secure the place that justly belongs to our representative?
THE COURIER wishes to extend to Mr. Cowan a hearty welcome, and its best wishes for success in his work with us. Let all members of the University give him their coöperation and hasten to take advantage of the opportunity afforded them to secure a thorough course in physical training. This department is not for the foot-ball and base-ball players alone, but for all members of the University. Because you do not wish to take an active part in athletics is no reason why you should not take physical culture. There is not a student in the "U." who will not be benefited by such training as Mr. Cowan will direct, and we hope to see every student enrolled in his classes.
No.17.
The sheet from the diminutive institution at Baldwin comes out with a long tirade upon the conduct of the K. U. students at the State Oratorical contest. It accuses them among other things of drunkenness. This, the Beacon knows as well as we, is wholly false, and why it should stoop to print what they know to be a malicious lie we are unable to understand. Just criticism we are ready and willing to take, but when it comes to "throwing mud" we beg to be excused. However, we would respectfully advise the Beacon to look over the history of Baker University, perhaps they may find something to divert their attention from the malicious practice of "mud throwing." Reform as well charity begins at home.
We notice among other pleasing things in the Sequoia of Leland Stanford Jr. University a plea for the inauguration of some class social event at Standford. Is it not about time some such custom as a Sophomore cotillion or a Junior promenade was established at K. U.? The lack of class spirit and enthusiasm is entirely too prominent for an institution as old and as far advanced as K. U., and while we do not wish to see class spirit carried to rowdyism or brutality, we think a certain amount of good natured rivalry would add much to student life and give us many pleasant episodes to look back upon after we have left the university. Now, '95, have some energy about you and let's have a Junior promenade that will be the socia event of the season.
The new catalogue will contain the outline of a two or three years' course leading to the degree of Ph. D. It is intended the course shall compare favorably with similar courses of the leading universities of the country, and it will be based almost entirely upon original investigation in special lines of work. The degree will be conferred only upon such students as shall present a thesis showing superior ability in original work. The department hopes to be in readiness to receive students at the beginning of the fall term, and while the course will be at least two years, it will not be necessary for students to complete the entire work here. The establishment of this course marks a large step in advance and will doubtless add much to the already high standing of the University of Kansas.
We have noticed of late a marked dissatisfaction among the Senior Engineers on account of the requirement of the course in advanced English composition. Their argument against the requirement is based upon the following reasons: That it is requiring work of them for which they have not had the proper training or preparation which renders it exceedingly difficult for them and keeps them below the standard of Art students in the course. This is both humiliating to them and in a measure unfair to other students whose progress it tends to retard; that it is work which does not meet their need and to which they are not at all adapted. When we consider the fact that, with the exception of one term of English in their Freshman year, their attention has been directed towards work wholly remote from the languages, we must admit that it seems unfair to place them along side of students who have followed language work throughout their entire course. Recognizing the necessity of English work of some kind we see no reason why more good could not be gained by the establishment of a special course which could be made more suited to the needs and ability of the Engineering students.
THE following is the program arranged for commencement week:
Sunday, June 3, 8 p. m., Baccalaureate Sermon, Bishop Vincent.
Monday, June 4, 10 a. m., Commencement School of Engineering, address by prominent speaker.
Monday, June 4, 2 p. m., Commencement School of Pharmacy, address by Mr. Britton.
Tuesday, June 5, 10 a. m., Commencement Law School.
Wednesday, June 6, 10 a. m., Commencement Exercises School of Arts. Orations by five n embers of '94.
Wednesday, June 5, 8 p. m., Annual Comencement Address. Benj. I. Wheeler, Cornell University.
We notice upon the program several very prominent men. Bishop Vincent is one of the ablest and most eloquent speakers in the west, while Benj. I. Wheeler is one of the two most prominent men connected with Cornell University, and was at one time a prominent candidate for the presidency of that institution. Kansas University is certainly fortunate in securing such men as these for the commencement program. But why the faculty should persistently adhere to the old wearisome and wornout custom of having a number of students orate on commencement day, against the unanimous wish of the graduates, we are unable to understand. Why the desire of those in whose honor the exercises are held should be totally ignored, without so much as a hint in the way of an explanation, seems to us exceedingly arbitrary. Almost at the beginning of the present school year a petition was sent to the faculty by the Senior class praying that in place of the customary speakers from the class, an address by a prominent speaker be substituted upon the commencement program. This is in accordance with the custom at all institutions of our standing in the country, and if we are to call our institution a university it is about time we get out of the high school rut in small things as well as the all important ones. But what has become of the above mentioned petition, and the committee in whose charge it was placed, no one seems to know; not even the president of the class has heard any news of its fate.

It seems to be the public sentiment among the students that Kansas University ought to pull out from the Kansas State Oratorical association. Steps in this direction ought to be taken at once.
It has been decided by the faculty to have all classes reciting Wednesday afternoon to be recited Saturday morning instead. This gives a half holiday in the midst of the week in which the physical culture classes can be better attended, and by this arrangement there will be two afternoons a week in which to give to athletics.
Prof. Adams completed his course of lectures Friday afternoon at the Historical Seminary on "The Province of Our Legislative Department."

W. H. H. Piatt returned last week from southern Kansas where he has been making engagements for the Glee and Banjo club while on their spring tour. He has already arranged dates with Emporia, Newton, Wichita, Arkansas City, Winfield, Independence, Chanute, Garnett, Ottawa, and Guthrie, Oklahoma. It was found at their last meeting that there were several of their old members who would not be able to take the spring trip on account of the interference with school work, but substitutes will be obtained to fill vacancies and they will begin practice at once.
In order that there may be no conflicts in the studies of the freshmen and sophomores with the physical culture class, the following classes have been changed with respect to their hours of recitation: the two divisions of the trigonometry and caluculus are changed from 9 to 10 to 8-8:50 and chapel exercises now last from 8:50 to 9:10, and zoology will now be recited from 2 until 4. This arrangement gives at least one of the three hours, 9 to 10, 11 to 22, or 4 to 5, vacant to freshmen and sophomores in which they may take physical culture exercises. The class meets three times every week, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

The Lawrence Journal's Monday evening issue stated that a petition with nearly 200 signers is out asking Prof. Blackmar to be a candidate for election to the board of education. The professor is not only popular in the University.
The way in which the oratorical contest is carried on at present, it is almost an impossibility to stand any show in the contest without plagiarising to some extent. The sooner the University withdraws from the association the better.
KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY GIRLS.
The following editorial remarks were published in the Kansas City Times last Sunday, about Misses Kate Riggs and Rose Morgan, who have the honor of ranking highest in scholarship in the senior class of this year.
The two young ladies who have beaten all the boys in the graduating class at Kansas State University, and at the same time made the highest grades ever known in that institution, are a living proof that Kansas can produce something in the female line beside women politicians. The change is grateful, but it bears a prophecy of the fate of modern man. The girl baby is coddled and fussed over as the boy never is; at school she snubs him and wrests the honors from him until life is perpetually on his neck, and even when it comes to political life, poor downtrodden and disgusted man is threatened with the specter of petticoat rule.
ATHLETIC MEETING.
A mass meeting was called by the athletic board last Friday at 12:30. A report, having been made by the board and by the assistance of some of the faculty, was presented to the meeting. The purpose of this report was to organize the athletic association on a better basis, and to sell stock and thereby raise money enough to meet the necessary expenses before the games are played. Another good aim was to place it above the reach of being controlled by political factions. The report showed much careful and thoughtful consideration.
It was carried by a good majority with the exception of one clause. This clause placed the price of a ticket, admitting the holder to all games for the year on McCook field, and also entitled to a share in the association at $3 a ticket or $1.50 for the share alone. This clause was changed so that the season ticket is to be $2 and only 50 cents to be paid for each share.
LAW SCHOOL NOTES.

Chancellor Snow called the students together in the chapel Wednesday morning to announce the changes which have taken place in the schedule, and gave a short talk concerning the class in physical culture.
“STUDENT AND STUDENTS.”
This talk was quite interesting. He spoke of the fact that the ones who were not accustomed to attend chapel exercises were just the ones whom he wished to speak to, and that there might be at least one day of the week when the students could all meet together.
Professor Miller gave an address to the students at chapel last Friday morning on the subject "Student and Students."
Prof. Miller believes that no student can do either himself or his studies justice and carry more than three at a time. Little mercy was shown upon the young man who spent all his nights with the "boys" and reported to his professors that his health was not good as the reason for not attending classes. Some good advice was given to the ladies who do not have a set time for gentlemen callers and allow them to call on school nights.
Some points were given as to the student's health and especially to the amount of food to be eaten.
Much stress was laid upon the exercise and athletic side of one's education, believing the present step the University has taken in this direction as the best step this school has taken for years.
The professor closed his remarks by saying that "A university education is to make a man a more able and a better thinker and that is all that can be expected.
Before the remarks by Professor Miller, Mr. Hart, accompanied by Miss Lichtenwalter on the piano, gave a clarionet solo. Following the remarks Miss Berry sang a very appropriate song for the occasion.
"IMMIGRATION AND ITS EFFECT ON LABOR."
Prof. Blackmar's lecture last Monday afternoon in the chapel was very interesting. He started out by saying, "Wages are regulated by supply and demand. There is another law called the 'iron law of wages,' but this law is only true in part. The former is the true law. He plainly showed the condition of the country depends largely upon the character and quality of immigration.
He gave as the causes of immigration: 1st, political oppression abroad; 2nd, political agitation; 3rd, a tendency to escape military service as in Germany; 4th, to escape famine and wars, and 5th, social agitation.
The advantages America offers are many such as: 1st, freedom of thought; 2nd, higher wages; 3rd, right of free government. Foreigners frequently take part in American government when they have not been in this country over twenty-four hours. 4th, freedom of education and better advantages for their children; 5th, and perhaps the greatest, the free granting of land; 6th, much of the immigration of late has been caused by cheap transportation; steamship companies have agents who go about in Europe and encourage immigration in order to increase travel; 7th, many are persuaded to come over by their friends who are already here.
A careful discrimination should be made between immigration and colonization.
In 1882 over 788,792 immigrants came to this country. This was the largest immigration of any one year.
We owe much to this foreign immigration, first because of the money which they bring which averages from $68 to $80 per capita, and their services are worth more than we generally give credit.
There was a time when we needed immigration to this country,but that time has now passed.
The low class of immigrants we have now are not accustomed to the advantages which an American has and of course will work for less money. Many foreigners are working to-day for fifteen cents a day.
Our institutions ought not to be torn down by opening our doors to this class of people.
The professor will lecture next Monday at 5 p. m. on "Municipalities." ___
The lower floor of Snow hall has been fitted up with necessary apparatus for the physical culture class.

LITERARY.
OPPORTUNITY.
Maker of human destiny am I.
Fame, love and fortune on my footsteps wait.
Cities and fields I walk. I penetrate
Deserts and seas remote, and passing by
Hovel and mart and palace; soon or late
I knock unbidden at every gate.
If sleeping, wake; if feasting, rise before
I turn away. It is the hour of fate,
And they who follow reach every state
Mortals desire, and conquer every foe
Save death. But those who doubt or hesitate,
Condemned to failure, penury and woe,
Seek me in vain and uselessly implore
I answer not, and I return no more.
—Jno. J. Ingalls.
AN ANSWER.
"How doth the little busy bee Improve each shining hour, And gather honey every day From every open flower." How doth he do it? why that's plain. The little bee he humps himself, He digs with all his might. And that's the reason, you see, The bee is out of sight.
A KANSAS EPISODE.
We occupied the same seat in a car on the Southern Kansas going out of Kansas City. My companion was an elderly man, strong and rugged, well dressed, and was apparently a commercial traveler.
The train stopped at Zarah, a little way station about fifteen miles from Kansas City. My companion leaned over and gazed long and intent westward, across the country. "Do you see that clump of trees on the hillside to the southwest?" he asked. "Well, I planted those trees more than thirty years ago. My, how they have grown!" As the train moved off he continued: "I had a claim here then and lived in a little cabin at the place where the trees now stand. I came from an eastern state simply for love of change and possibly of adventure, and when I got here I decided to take a claim."
"I suppose you had a rather hard time then," I said. "We, the younger generation, know little of real hardship, such as the early settlers experienced."
"Yes, I suppose most people nowadays would say we only half lived. Communication with the East was difficult, so we were contented if we got a few necessaries. Then the Indians on the reservation near us were troublesome, especially when drunk; and besides it was the time of the border troubles. Quarrels between the two parties were frequent, and murder was oftentimes the result. Every man had to take care of himself. But the class of men who came to Kansas had the pure stuff in them. They were fearless, brave and self-reliant."
"I suppose you knew some odd characters among these early settlers; such men are usually found along the border."
"Oh yes, every man was a character, and some of them pretty hard ones, too," he added with a laugh. "But I had one neighbor who made quite a name for himself afterwards. His name was James B. Hickok. He afterwards was called 'Wild Bill.' I believe he received the name from the wild and desperate manner in which he defended himself against a gang of horse thieves who tried to take his horses from him. People nowadays doubt his existence. But he was a real personage and every inch a man. He settled a claim next to mine and we soon became well acquainted. He was then a young man about twenty-five, tall, slender, athletic, with a strong, determined face, and the most flashing black eyes I ever saw in a man's head. I do not wonder that he became the most noted shot in the West, and for that reason the terror of bushwackers, and of the cow-boys and gamblers of Caldwell and Abilene.
"But Wild Bill, or 'Jim' Hickok as we called him, was at this time an ordinary country fellow intent on 'proving up' his claim and
settling down in life. But other things were in store for Wild Bill than a peaceful farmer's life.
"Down at the Shawnee Mission, six or eight miles from my claim, was a trading post. The trader's name was Rogers. He lived in the back part of the store with his wife and daughter Millie. Millie was a pretty blonde, and had most engaging manners. Women were scarce in this country then and Millie was much sought after by the young settlers. Jim Hickok was among her suitors, and before long it was evident that he was the chosen one. He began to build a cabin, and it was generally understood that he and Millie were to be married the coming spring."
"Among Millie's suitors was a young Missourian by the name of Ellwood, a big, brawny, coarse fellow, whose advances were indignantly repelled by the girl. Ellwood soon learned that Wild Bill was the favored suitor. He swore to be revenged. Wild Bill was warned, but he laughed at the threat.
"One night shortly after Wild Bill had completed his house, Ellwood and a number of companions came into the trader's store. Millie was attending the store. The men were partly drunk and very talkative. From snatches of their conversation she learned they intended to make an attack on Wild Bill that night, burn his home and murder him, and thus dispose of another 'abolitionist.' The men rode away in the darkness. What was to be done? Her lover must be warned of his danger. Her father was away at Kansas City. Quickly calling her mother she explained the situation. Then, hardly waiting to hear the mother's answer, she ran to the stable, saddled and bridled one of her father's horses, mounted it and sped away across the prairie towards Wild Bill's cabin eight miles away.
"Ellwood and his companions had not ridden very rapidly, so that she soon came within hearing distance. How to pass them and not be discovered was the question. Suddenly she remembered that the road divided at Mill creek, there being an upper and a lower ford. She could pass them there. Riding up as close as she dared, she saw them take the road for the upper ford. As soon as they were out of hearing she put her horse at full speed for the lower crossing. She crossed the creek and hurried on. Soon she was at the meeting of the roads again. She stopped and listened. Yes she had gotten ahead; she could hear their loud voices and the tramp of the horses behind her. Her horse was not much exhausted and the road now lay across the open prairie. Taking a long swinging gallop she soon covered the remaining distance. 'Jim' was at home. I suppose no person was ever more astonished than he when he saw Millie. She explained matters to him. 'Jim' swore he would stay and fight them. Millie implored him for her sake to leave. He yielded to her entreaties. They mounted their horses and by a circuitous route rode back to the Mission. Ellwood and his crowd burned Jim's house and stable and drove away or killed his stock.
"I seldom saw Jim after that. He lost his desire of settling down in life. The border troubles were now on and he connected himself with the anti-slavery party and distinguished himself for daring and bravery in the exciting events of that time. After the war I heard of him at times, but he never came back to Shawnee. He was always seeking adventure and excitement. At last I heard of his death at Deadwood, Dakota."
"And Millie?" I asked.
"Millie was true if ever a woman was. Her father was killed during the war and the store burned. Millie took upon herself the support of her mother, and waited for "Jim;" but he never came. At last she heard of his death. Then she packed up their few belongings and moved away.
"For a long time I did not know where they were. But last spring I was in a town in northern Texas, and there I met Millie and her now aged mother. Millie had prospered in the world. She had started a boarding house, then a hotel, and is now well to do. She is the same cheery soul as when she made that ride to save Jim. But she never married. She still believes Jim true, and has a firm faith that had he lived he would have come to her."
"Olathe!" yelled the brakeman. My destination was reached, and I reluctantly bid my new acquaintance adieu.

GOD BLESS THEE, KANSAS.
Verdant wheat fields stretching southward,
Fruitful orchards east and west;
Not a spot in all the prairie
That the spring time has not blest;
Every field a smiling promise,
Every house an Eden fair;
And the angels, Peace and Plenty,
Strewing blessings every where.
Peace, thine angel, pointeth upward
Where the gray clouds break away,
And athwart the azure heavens
Shineth forth Hope's placid ray.
Look to heaven and to the future,
Grieve no longer o'er the past;
Through thy trials, God bless thee, Kansas!
See the stars appear—at last!
—Hattie Horner.
ATHLETICS.
The first practice game of base ball was played at McCook field last Saturday. Nothing much can be said about the ability of the candidates to play ball, in that it was the first game. But judging from the game played Saturday it would seem that we are going to lack good pitchers. None of the men who occupied that position filled it at all satisfactorily. If any of these men expect to pitch for the team, they will have to work, and work hard. I think that a good pitcher is necessary for K. U. to win at base ball. Of the other positions nothing can be said at present.
The following men have registered as candidates for the base-ball team. Catcher, Parker, Kelsey; Pitcher, Waggener, Steinberger, Smith, Strothers, Clarke; First-base, H. B. Hogeboom, Lewers, Green, Mitchell, Coleman, Reynolds, A. McMurry; Second-base, Alden, Holdren, Sutermeister, Matteson; Third-buse, McLaughlin, Pampell; Short-stop, Hill. Williamson, Harding; Field, Chamberlain, Shirar, McMahon, R. W. Hogeboom, Kelley, Piatt, W. McMurry, Taylor, Mitchell, Macomb, Ludlum, Watsen,—34.
The Junior Laws propose to make things hum in base ball this spring. They have several good men in their class and they can defeat any other class team in the University. They perfected the organization of team last Tuesday. They would like to hear from any class in the University.
During this nice weather the captain of field athletics should have his men out and at work. The track could be fixed up and a great deal could be done. The fact that we have no gymnasium should be sufficient argument for this assertion.
Baseball in the West, and especially throughout the Southwest has been at low ebb, but with the reorganization of a strong Western League the sport will beyond doubt assume much of its old-time popularity the coming season. Several of the colleges also have good teams, and Kansas City may possibly be treated to games between Kansas and Missouri and Kansas and Michigan. It is noticeable that while the colleges have met on the "gridiron" for a number of years, there have been few baseball contests. Baker and Kansas met each year, and in '92 Kansas defeated Nebraska 5 to 4, but outside of these games there has been little college baseball in this section of the country. Why would not some college contests in Kansas City prove extremely popular?-The Western Sportsman.
The Western Sportsman says: "football has very foolishly been prohibited at the Kansas State Normal School. The State Agricultural College never did "cotton" to it any way, so the State University will have to uphold the honor of the State all alone." It might be well to add that we are going to do just this, in foot ball next fall.
Captain Kelsey announces that the following teams will play Saturday:
Smith, P. Wagner.
Kelsey, C. Parker.
Williamson, S. S. Harding.
Mitchell, 1st. Lewers.
Matteson, 2nd. Alden.
McMahon, 3d. Hogeboom.
Taylor, R. F Shiras.
Chamberlain, C. F. McMurray.
Strothers, L. F. Steinberger.
All candidates be at McCook Field Saturday.
Kansas City will have a baseball team this year. Johnny Manning will captain and manage the team.
The Junior Law School team plays the Lawrence High School team next Saturday.
Jimmy Kelsey will captain and manage the Winfield, Kansas, team this summer.
Todd, the crack short-stop of the "Central Minnesota Base Ball League," will enter K. S. U. next year.
Midland College promises to play good base ball this spring. They did splendidly in foot-ball last fall.
What is the matter with Washburn? Are we not going to have the pleasure of defeating her again?
Base ball promises to regain some of its former prestige this year.
Foot-ball at West Point and Annapolis has been prohibited by the War Department.
The Glee Club should organize a ball team for their spring trip. Perhaps they might be more successful than they were with their foot-ball team.
It is said that Carl Faulks used to be a great pitcher. Idt.
There is talk of organizing an inter-fraternity base ball league. The idea is a good one and should be pushed.
Fred King caught for his class team at Ann Arbor.
A committee of the athletic board has applied for a charter for our new association.
The Baker team was "never defeated" during the season, and quit several hundred dollars behind. The University of Kansas won but two games and quit the game a thousand dollars ahead. It looks as if Baker had the beef and Kansas the brains.—(Copied.)
Thank you. We need something to "feel good" about.

As we walk through the halls and see students hurrying to the different class rooms we wonder how many of them go to recitations with the expectation of gaining something new, something aside from that contained in their text-books and assigned reading, and how many on the other hand, go with fear and trembling least they have not prepared their lesson so they can recite in just the way it pleases the Professor.
The answer comes at once. It depends very largely upon the instructor, and somewhat upon the subject. True, there are professors and professors. We go to one class and find the instructor has something new and original to say in his talk, something in his lecture that instils in the student a desire to read and search for himself. Here we find much of the time spent in opening up new channels of knowledge to the student and to broadening what he has already acquired. We go to another class room and we find the instructor bent on getting through the assigned text in sufficient time to allow a review of what has gone before. Thus the same mechanical process is gone through with day after day. Here the student pays but slight attention to what the professor has to say but contingally looks ahead wondering if he can answer the next question should it fall to him. He has no desire to read anything aside from the text; his knowledge of the subject is strictly confined to one writer; he has no room for conflicting opinions or original research.
In the second instance we are treated to a remnant of the process in vogue in American Universities only during their earliest days, a process long since abandoned by the progressive. The University is comparatively free from the latter class, but there are a few members of the faculty who can well afford to step ahead at a little faster pace.
In the first we see, at once, the true University Idea; the spirit of original investigation and research with a tendency to broaden out a student's views and to teach him to draw his own conclusions on subjects from different authorities.
We have noted with interest the recent crusade upon college athletics and while we think some attacks have been rather radical we nevertheless see many evidences of needed reform. From the following, taken from one of the New York dailies, we are able to gain a fair idea of what has been done in way of reform at Yale and Pennsylvania University:
A REAL ATHLETIC REFORM.
"The work of reforming college athletics is still going on. Yale has just adopted new constitutions ror all her athletic associations, and bound herself to rules of eligibility which more nearly resemble the Harvard-Pennsylvania agreement than the undergraduate rule. In fact, the net result of the college politics, which became so tiresome last year, is a victory to the Harvard idea, championed by Harvard and Pennsylvania. There can be no question, however, that Yale will enforce her new rules as strictly as the new Harvard rules are
being enforced at Cambridge; and it is said that Princeton will soon follow the example of the other colleges and put a restraining code into application.
In the meantime an important step has been taken at Pennsylvania which places her for the present in advance of the rest of the great universities, and that is the adoption of the principle of faculty control of athletics. The new rules at Pennsylvania, far more stringent in the right direction than ever was the undergraduate rule, are drawn up with the intention of keeping the balance true between the studies and the athletics of the undergraduate, and of making his scholarship the test of his eligibility to the University teams. If he cannot pass his examinations he must not represent the University. That is sound common sense, and to this all the colleges will have to come in the near future.
For if collegiate athletics have grown too great and have interfered with the proper administration of the college curriculum, the faculties are the persons to correct this. No set of rules can be drawn up by an athletic association which will make men study if at the same moment they are being tempted from their books by the glories of the foot ball or base ball field; and if neglect of studies is imperative if the severe course of athletic training now prescribed is to be carried out, then, again, nothing but action by the faculties can reduce the demands of the trainers and coaches. They never will do it of their own accord, no matter how they try.
The new Pennsylvania rules coincide in one very important particular with Dr. Eliot's recent recommendation. Dr. Eliot is an extremist, and appears to believe in the total abolition of college athletics, but one of his suggestions was valuable, that which looked to the limitation of the amount of competitive exercise to be taken by the student. By the new Pennsylvania rules no man can represent the University in two different sports in the same year, unless by permission of the faculty. This would naturally be extended in all proper cases; a man might easily play foot-ball in the fall and compete at Mott Haven in the spring without danger to his studies, but no man ought to have the temptation to undergo hard athletic training in both the spring and the fall, to play foot-ball and row or play base ball, when his lectures and recitations are suffering; and therefore the solution of the difficulty is a prohibition of this kind which may be suspended when a clear record is shown. The presumption is nowadays that foot-ball in the autumn and base ball in the spring do not mean a degree in the summer, for training has gone too far.
To remain in the lead the University has only to enforce the new athletic code temperately, but without relaxation. The faculty should never be blind as any bad effect that athletics may be having, for that is the only way in which the college may profit by their good effects; and placed in control of the athletic interests of the institution, the responsibility will be with them to restrain or enlarge them as may be most beneficial."
How much of this we can take to ourselves, we will not attempt to say. One point however seems especially applicable: namely, the rule prohibiting a student from representing the University in two different sports in the same year. A rule of this kind would not only avoid the injury arising out of excessive training, but would tend to raise the standard of different sports and at the same time dispel the idea, some of our athletes have developed, that they can not only play foot-ball and base-ball just a little better than any one else but also have more ability to teach others. We won't say that they are not right in their conception of their own ability, but the evidence shown us by the success of the foot-ball team makes us a trifle sceptical.
We should recognize the fact that in athletics as in all branches of University work the tendency is to specialize. This is rendered absolutely necessary by the severe training required to obtain success in important contests. If we allow our athletes to "dabble" in all branches of sport they will not become proficient in any, and this will result in our success being conspicuous by its absence. Let us all lay aside our old-time prejudice, and recognizing in Mr. Cowan a trainer of superior ability, all work together for the good of our Alma Mater.

LITERARY.
THE FLUNKER.
"When the devil was sick,
The devil a saint would be;
When the devil got well,
The devil a saint was he."
Thus chanted the flunker bold
When he drew his minus three,
So he took up his nerve untold
And prayed to the Faculty.
The Faculty kind, erased
The minus that followed his three,
While the flunker his nerve embraced
In a fit of triumphant glee.
Then his homeward way he traced,
And he chuckled at every tree,
"When the flunker had failed,
The flunker a dig would be;
When the flunker had passed,
* * * * dig was he!"

A THREE HORNED DILEMMA.
The following local appeared a number of years ago in the columns of a leading college paper:
"James Wagstaff, a member of the Senior class, who recently received a commencement appointment and who would soon have graduated cum laude, has left school. His whereabouts are unknown and no reason can be assigned for his conduct."
Wagstaff was a class mate of mine and I thought I knew him fairly well. We came from the same town and had always been more or less intimate. I could assign no reason for his action and the more I pondered over the matter the more perplexed I became.
Wagstaff was always popular in college. He was a bright, dashing fellow, frank and open in his manner and withal an excellent student. He was always in demand in social circles, and had a most unbounded admiration for the fair sex. Although he was intellectual his intellectuality and reason did not always rule him. He was the most impulsive fellow I ever knew, given to emotions which at times carried him completely away.
For several years after graduation I followed my profession, civil engineering, in several different western states. I thought of Wag-staff at times and wondered if the mystery of his disappearance would ever be cleared up, but after a time I almost dismissed the affair from my mind. Finally my engineering corps was sent to Mexico to work on a railroad from the city of Mexico to an interior town. My headquarters were in the city of Mexico. The old city had a peculiar charm for me. Its amusement loving, careless people, the quaint architecture, the delightful climate, all combined to attract me.
One day while sauntering along the great plaza of the city, lazily smoking a cigarette, some one grasped me by the shoulder, and a voice, I would have known it among a thousand, greeted me; "Great Scott, Holt, who would have expected you here?" I turned and grasped his hand. Yes, it was Wagstaff, a little older, perhaps, but the same jolly whole-souled fellow. "Come along old boy and take dinner with me," he continued, "I want to have a talk with you and find out how affairs are up in the states." He took my arm in his and led me away to his boarding house, at the same time assailing me with a volley of questions about affairs at home.
When dinner was over we repaired to the piazza, Wagstaff produced some cigars and when comfortably seated he looked at me and half quizzically said: "Well, I suppose you want to know why I am here and why I left college so suddenly, without a word of explanation." "I confess I have some curiosity on that point," I answered.
flattered myself that many of them were not indifferent to me. I tried to conquer my passion for them but to no purpose. I loved the beautiful, and woman you know is the most beautiful of all created things. This passion of mine is what got me in a quandary.
"I suppose I ought to have told you this affair years ago but I didn't have the courage to consult any one then and moreover I suddenly formed a resolution and acted on it without careful thought. You know, Holt, I always was a great admirer of the girls, and I
You remember Edith Baker. We lived in the same town, were play mates, school mates, and in fact grew up together. When a boy Edith to me was simply perfection. She was beautiful, modest, sensible. Ere I went to college I declared my passion and emphasized it with all the rhetoric at my command. Her answer was not decisive but encouraging. If I proved myself a man at college she would give me a definite answer shortly before I graduated. In the meantime I was to write to her occasionally.
"I went to college. The conditions were easy and in line with my own inclinations. Filled with the desire to win both love and a fair place for myself I worked hard, and, you know, I succeeded as a student. I intended to be true to Edith if ever a man did. But my ruling passion was too strong for me. At the end of my Sophomore year I spent two months at a summer resort in the mountains of Virginia. Here I met Nellie Downs, a radiant young creature, fresh from a ladies' boarding school. We were much in each others society. I surrendered myself to the enjoyment of the moment and soon I had forgotten everything but Nellie Downs. But she was more discreet than I, we were both young, she said, and could well wait awhile ere any definite arrangements were made. I went back to college. I saw I had placed myself in an awkward position. But I hoped that in two years time some opportunity would present itself for me to honorably escape. In the meantime I resolved to forego society.
"But alas, man isn't always master of his destiny, at least I wasn't. I got along very well until my senior year. Then I fell in love with another girl, a member of the senior class. I struggled against my passion to no avail. One day I called on her. Under the spell of her personality, I forgot my scruples and before I left the house she had promised after graduation to be my wife. I went to my room happy, elated, almost walking on air. Two letters were lying on my table. My spirits fell to zero and a cold sweat broke out on my brow when I saw them. The handwriting of both was familiar. One was from Edith Baker, the other Nellie Downs. Both were to the same effect, "After you have graduated" * * * I can't go on with it. For three days I faced that dreadful future 'after graduation.' Visions of terrible breach of promise suits floated before my sight. It was a terrible strain. I felt my reason giving away. Then a happy thought struck me. There should be no 'after graduation,' and so, old boy, I bolted. Do you blame me?"

ATHLETICS.
MR. NEWSON RESIGNED as manager of the ball team, and James Harding was elected by the Athletic Board to fill the vacancy. We can say nothing as to Mr. Harding's past reputation as a head, but we predict that he will make a success of his office.
JIMMY KELSEY, CAPTAIN of the University ball team, has handed in his resignation. He received a severe sprain of his back last summer which makes it utterly impossible for him to play ball this spring. This is a very unfortunate occurance for the team in that Kelsey was a cool captain and a good catcher. We hope that he will be so far recovered that he will be able to go into practice and catch later in the season.
IT SEEMS TO me as though it would be a good scheme to have the diamond at McCook field fixed up, so that the candidates could practice. Playing ball on clods is hard and difficult work. The grounds will have to be fixed up sometime; why not now? The outfielders have to dodge and jump over posts in trying to field balls. The in-fielders have not the slightest idea where the balls are going. "Get a move!"
THE ATHLETIC BOARD elected "Gazette" Matteson temporary captain of the ball team last Monday. He will have charge of the candidates until the "Varsity" team is selected. The team will then choose its own captain. Matteson played short-stop on the team last year. This year he is a candidate for second base. He hails from the historic town of Abilene where ball players are thick, and consequently he will make a good captain.
THE ATHLETIC BOARD seems to have at last arrived at the conclusion that it is not necessary that a professor should hold all of the important offices in university athletics. The idea of putting a man in a place that he knows next to nothing about just because he is a professor and a nice fellow is a very foolish move. What we want is young blood. We need a man who has to make a name for himself in athletics. He is the man to get out and dig for the team.
THE REGULAR PRACTICE game Saturday was interfered with by the high wind which blew steadily all afternoon. Consequently nothing of importance was accomplished. I think, however, it would not be difficult to name the men from whom the team will be picked. Kelsey, Smith, Lewers, Steinberger, Strothers, Alden, Chamberlain, Hogaboom, Matteson, Williamson, Harding and Parker seem to have the best show at present, although the test may change as the season ripens.
THE RESIGNATION OF Kelsey gives the base-ball committee a problem that must be solved quickly; that is, getting a good catcher. Hogaboom and Parker are the only men in the University who are good men for the position, and I understand that neither one wants it. Hogaboom is a good catcher and can be worked up to be a first-class man. Parker I do not know much about, but I think that he can be relied upon. The battery work should be taken in hand at once. The battery is the most important feature of a game, and it takes lots of hard work to get a good one.
WHAT PROMISED SOME rare sport for Kansas City in the way of field sports seems to have been nipped in the bud by the lethargy of the University of Missouri. For some time past the Kansas City Athletic club has been endeavoring to arrange a general field day between the universities of Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri to be held here on Decoration day. It was also the intention to have boxing contests for the college championship in some opera house or public hall on the evening of that day. Each College was to send twenty men, and the events were to be running, jumping, pole vaulting, shot putting, and others customary, the college winning the most points to be presented with a magnificent trophy. Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa agreed several weeks ago to send teams, and exhibited much enthusiasm and interest, but not a word of definite action has been obtained
from Missouri, although many letters have been written. Lieutenant Smoke, erstwhile of foot-ball fame, writes in his characteristic letter: "Our Athletic Association is apparently dead, and I do not think that you will hear any more of the matter."
In the meanwhile the Iowa State Intercollegiate field day meet has been scheduled for Decoration day, and so the present plan seems to have been nipped in the bud by Missouri, for any other day is hardly feasible. It has been suggested that a field meet between Kansas and Missouri be arranged, but as the Missouri boys seem to be in a Rip Van Winkle trance since the foot-ball season, a meeting does not seem within the range of possibilities. Kansas is more than willing to enter into such an arrangement. - Kansas City World.
OF ALL CONCEITED people under the sun, we think that the little hamlet, on a jerk-water branch of the Southern Kansas, holds the majority. If ever mortal man gazed upon gall so unadulterated we have missed the recuting of it. When a second edition of a Kansas high school takes it upon itself to require that we go out of our way to give our ball team practice by playing games with them, we think that they ought to be in a class by themselves. We presume that on account of their good showing in foot-ball last year, they have become egotistical. They are therefore not at all anxious to have us wipe up the ground with them in base-ball.
In the last issue of the Students' Journal we were treated to the very unusual and unsportsmanlike assertion that certain members of last year's ball team would again play their old positions on the team the coming season. Probably the writer of the article was not aware of the influence of such a statement in the columns of a college paper, but common sense should show one how unfair it is to make an assertion that certain men will play certain positions long before a final selection of the team had been thought of or even before all candidates had presented themselves. The fact of the matter is that no one is assured of his position and it is even probable that superior men may turn up. The result of an article of that kind is exceedingly damaging and only serves the end of keeping good material from presenting itself while of itself it is wholly unreliable and inexcusable.

We are glad to state the Local Oratorical Association has taken the proper steps to settle the difficulties that arose out of the State Contest. With the exception of two, all the institutions interested have consented to the call of a convention for the purpose. Should this be done, we have no doubt but K. U. will be given second place.
The recent stand taken by the Students' Journal in the matter of commencement exercises is surprising to say the least, and while we admire the spirit of humble submission manifested, we fail to see why this should be clothed with such a falacious argument.
According to the Journal the significance of commencement has been lost in Yale, Harvard, Princeton, and all the larger Universities of the country since they have adopted the plan of having a foreign speaker conduct in the commencement exercises.
Because there is a larger audience present on commencement day the Journal concludes the present form of exercises is the most popular. If this is true, why is the largest audience present at the commencement exercises of universities that have adopted the other plan?
The idea that we can develop orators the last three months of school, when we have displayed our inability to do so before, is absolutely ridiculous.
The crowded condition of the several departments located in the Chemistry and Natural History buildings illustrates in a pleasing manner the growth of the University during the last seven or eight years.
The School of Pharmacy, occupying the basement of the chemistry building, is so crowded now that the work has to be arranged in the most inconvenient manner to allow laboratory room for each class. The Junior Pharmacy class numbers at present 25 students, which is all that can be accommodated in the present quarters, should the school expand next year in the proportion it has in the past some proviso must be made for laboratory room.
The Chemical Department is in nearly the same condition. The Freshman chemistry class is always the largest in the "U," since all Freshmen of the schools of Art and Engineering as well as the Pharmacy students are required to take this work. The present class, numbering 120, has to be crowded into a lecture room designed to accommodate about 75 or 80 students. For laboratory practice Prof. Bailey is forced to divide the class into sections which he takes on different days. This is not only inconvenient for the professor but often conflicts with other work of the students. Again, the more advanced work, qualitative and quantitative analysis and organic chemistry, have to be crowded together in the south laboratory, which will accommodate but ten persons,—fortunately there are but ten students
aking this work now, but it is evident that expansion is out of the question until more room is provided.
Turning our attention to Snow Hall and we find the same condition of affairs. The Departments of Paleontology, Geology, and Mineralogy are very seriously crippled by lack of both laboratory and museum room. The lower museum in Snow Hall, assigned to the use of these departments, is now so full as not to admit of another case being placed in it. Prof. Williston has several very fine Paleontological specimens already set up, but he has no room for them.
The Department of Geology and Mineralogy, in which there are some fifty-five or sixty students, is crowded into one little room in the basement of Snow Hall. Prof. Hayworth has been at work for some time past upon the products of economic geology, of which there are at present no specimens in our museum. He has already secured enough material in this line to more than fill his one small room used for a laboratory. Besides this, he has some three or four thousand pounds of material already collected, upon the Geological Survey of the State, now being carried on by the Department, which he has been unable to unpack for lack of museum room.
From this state of affairs it is quite evident the University must have in the near future at least two new building.
A new chemistay building for the exclusive use of that department, leaving the present chemistry building to be devoted to the use of the Pharmacy School alone.
A second new building for the exclusive use of the Department of Zoology. Thus the large museum and rooms on the second floor of Snow Hall, now used by Prof. Dyche, could be assigned to the Geological Department, while the lower museum could then be devoted exclusively to Paleontology.
This expansion of the several departments mentioned is manifest in every department of the University. It marks a growth and development of higher education of which every Kansan should be proud, and we hope not only to see two new buildings but in the near future to see the campus literally covered with University buildings.
THE following, taken from the report of the University Council, will show the requirements for the degree of Ph. D., mentioned in last week's COURIER:
Regulations for conferring the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of Kansas.
The Degree of Pu. D. will be granted on the ground of advanced scholarship and the performance of independent work in some special line. It will be given for scholarship alone, or for the completion of a prescribed course of study.
for seniorship alone, or for the completion of a prescribed course. Ist. The candidate must be a baccalaureate graduate of this University, or of a college or university whose degrees are accepted by this University as equivalent to its own, or he must give satisfactory evidence to the University Council that he possesses an equivalent preparation for graduate studies.
Counsel that he possesses an equivalent preparation for graduate studies 2nd. He must make application to the Committee on Graguate Studies before the first of October preceding the commencement at which he intends to present himself for the degree, and must then give satisfactory evidence of his ability to read with fluency such German and French as may be necessary for the proper prosecution of his studies.
3rd. He must have spent at least three college yaars in graduale studies, two of which must be at this or some approved University. The last year must be spent at this University.
4th. He must present a thesis showing the results of original research and pass acceptable examinations, both written and oral—the latter before the University Council—in one chief or major study and two allied, subsidiary, or minor studies. One hundred and fifty copies of his thesis must be deposited with the University Librarian before the degree is conferred.
5th. The lines in which the degree of Pn.D. is offered are as follows: Greek, Latin, Mathematics, French, German, English, Political Economy, Sociology, American and European History, Entomology, Paleontology, Mineralogy, Stratigraphical and Physical Geology.

The Cotillion club gave a German last Friday evening, and the foll-out-of-town guests were present: Miss Blanche Deintz of Topeka, Miss Adams of Kansas City, Mo., Mr. Frank Miller of Emporia who is visiting Carl Foulks, and Messrs. Perry and Bargo, of Kansas City.
Last Thursday afternoon about thirty of the students in the civil engineering department met for the purpose of organizing a civil engineering society. Much enthusiasm was manifested and a permanent organization was effected. H. H. Johnson was elected president, J. A. Lahmer, vice-president; and H. A. Suitermeister, secretary. The meetings of the society will be held on Thursday afternoon of each week.
The fifth lecture on Political Economy was given in the chapel by Professor Adams Monday night. The subject was "Socialism in the United States." His paper was neither pro nor con, but simply stated the principles under the three divisions: the essence of sociology, the changes that would come of socialism, American socialism. Prof. Adams covered much ground in a short time and gave an interesting lecture.
The Adelphian Club gave their concert in the chapel last Tuesday evening. The attendance was very small.

Rev. Cowan sometimes gets his two occupations mixed by announcing to his audience in chapel that "We will meet tomorrow for practice as usual," and when addressing the physical culture class he says, "We will have regular services as usual on Thursday."
The statement that has been going around that Herbert Hadley, of this place, had been defeated in an oratorical contest between Northwestern and Ann Arbor is untrue. The contest comes off in April, and Mr. Hadley will represent Northwestern University. Lawrence Journal.

A quartette of fun loving young people held a social session at the athletic park Saturday night. Te fun was rudely broken up by a gang of hoodlums who locked the gates which necessitated the girls and boys scaling the fence. The ruffians appropriated the refreshments for their own use. It was a sadder but wiser crowd.
A company of enthusiastic students met last Friday afternoon and organized a "Debating society." A constitution was adopted and the following officers were elected: Warren Baxter, president; McCroskey, vice-president; Griffin, secretary and taeasurer. This society will meet every Friday afternoon in room No.15. The subject to be debated tomorrow is "Income Tax," by Messrs. Palmer and Gardner. All interested are invited.
Three couples of the University young people left early last Saturday morning to take a stroll. Time passed quickly, and they found themselves walking the streets of Eudora before they thought of returning home. While discussing whether they should take the train or get a livery to take them back to Lawrence, the train had come and gone. Just then an old man drove up with a team of worn-out mules, as they had just been driven from Kansas City that day, and they at once offered him a goodly sum if he would bring them back to Lawrence, and back they came, slow but sure. The driver was exceeding pleased when they stopped him within a mile of town and said they would prefer to walk the rest of the way home. For further particulars see the literary editor of this paper.
OUR CHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT.
Professor Bailey has lately received some fourteen large portraits of the most prominent chemists of the world. About eight of them adorn the walls of the lecture room and the rest are placed in the office and experiment rooms. They not only add to the beauty of the rooms but also give them an inspiring atmosphere.
In the lecture room one's attention is first called to the picture, almost life size, of Guy-Lassac, who made known to the world the laws of combination of gases by volume. This law of definite proportions was shown to hold good with respect to the volumes as well as the weights of the combining bodies.
Next we come to the picture of John Dalton. He was born in England in 1766. His father was a wool-weaver and was able to send young Dalton to college where he soon became an instructor in that institution. The fact of his being color-blind led him to investigate the cause and publish a book on color-blindness. Much of his work was upon rain and dew, and he discovered the law of expansion

of gases but the most important fact was that he was the author of the automatic theory in 1805.
Not far from this hangs the picture of Michael Faraday. His life was between 1791 and 1867. He was the son of a blacksmith. For a long time Faraday was a bookseller in England. He made an electrical machine out of a glass bottle; attended the lectures at Royal Institute and it was not long until he became an assistant to Sir Humphrey Davy. Later he traveled with Davy in Europe. He belonged to a religious class of people called Sandemanians. His salary steadily increased till he received about $5,000 a year, but soon gave up his time to research alone. He made discoveries in polarized light and worked more on electricity and magnetism than anything else.
Two pictures of Leibig have been obtained, one taken when he was quite young and the other just before his death. Leibig was more noted for his experiments on food, air and soil than any thing else. The Leibig Extract of Beef was named after him.
The picture of Bunston shows that he was a German. He was a Professor of chemistry at Heidleburg. He was most noted for research in gases. He also invented many conveniences for experimenting in Chemistry, such as the Bunston Burner.
At the back of the lecture room hang the pictures of Priestly and Lavoiser. The first lived from 1733 to 1804. He was most famous for his having first discovered oxygen, 1774. Besides this he first made known sulphurous acid gas, hydrochloric acid and carbon monoxide. Lavoiser was born in 1743. He discovered no new body, no new property, no natural phenomenon previously unknown; but all the facts established by him were necessary consequences of labors of those who preceded him. He gave to this body of science a new spirit.
In one of the experiment rooms hangs the picture of Chas. Adolph Wurtz. He was a German, born in 1817, noted in organic chemistry, and was for a long time an assistant under Dumas and at whose death Wurtz became Professor of the medical department. He was also made famous for his researches upon phosphorus and cyanogen compound. In 1864 he was awarded the Emperor's prize of 20,000 franks for his researches. His dictionary on chemistry is considered very valuable to chemists.
In the office and adjoining room are the pictures of eight of the most noted men in chemistry, such as Dumas, Prescott, Cheurnel, S. W. Johnson, Remsen, Silliman and Max Von Pettenkofer.
Jean B. A. Dumas, born 1800, in France, began his research work while only eighteen. While at school he made himself distinguished by making jars out of lamp chimneys. He discovered the composition of flovel. Later he went to Paris and became the rival of Leibig in organic chemistry. We have in our libraries "A Treatise on Chemistry" written by him.
A. B. Prescott is professor and director of chemical department at Michigan State University. He wrote a text-book on organic analysis.
The picture of Cheurnel is hung in a convenient place in order that may be pointed to when life insurance agents come in the office, as Cheurnel lived to be 104 before he died. His researches are in the line of fats and soap making.
S. W. Johnson, a professor in Yale University, worked largely in the agricultural chemistry. The organization of the present system of state agriculture stations is due to him. He wrote "How Crops Feed and How Crops Grow," but his great standard work is "Fresenius' Quantitative Analysis."
Prof. I. Remsen, now a professor in chemistry in Johns Hopkins University, is the author of a series of text-books used in Kansas University, and is editor of the American Chemical Journal.
Max Von Pettenkofer, born in 1818, at Lichtenheim, on the Danube, soon became a professor in the medical department of Munich. He was most noted for his investigations in hygene, as stones, vegetation, soil and health, and made an apparatus for the study of respiration of animals.
Ben Silliman, for a time professor of chemistry in Yale, has made most of his researches in applied chemistry, as illuminating gas and petroleum.

LITERARY.
COMPENSATION.
A certain college newspaper editor, overwhelmed by the responsibilities and perplexities of his office, suddenly died. The editor had been an ambitious youth on earth, always striving to get the best of everything and to make the most of his circumstances.
His spirit, therefore, in accord with his previous life, was desirous of entering heaven. The editor knew he had many shortcomings—many sins both of commission and omission. But he had an idea that St. Peter was indulgent, so that there might be a chance for him. At any rate he would interview the doorkeeper and see how he felt about the matter.
After a long journey he came into the presence of St. Peter. His reception was anything but cordial and the editor felt his case to be hopeless, and he was on the point of turning away But St. Peter, relaxing his stern countenance, detained him. "Young man, I have examined your record. There are many things against you and few in your favor. Your case is well nigh hopeless. But tell me, young man, what you last did while on earth."
"Your Honor, I was editor of a college paper, and a hard and thankless task it was."
"Son, there is a chance for you. Tell me further; did the faculty give you credit for your newspaper work.
"Your honor, to my sorrow I must say it did not."
"My dear son," cried St. Peter, embracing him, "compensation is a law of the universe! Step right in and take a front seat!"
THE MYSTERY OF BLUE MOUND.
Blue Mound! what University student does not know Blue Mound, and where is the student who has not spent some of the happiest days of his life wandering about its summit or prowling about among the rocks and brush which line its sides? Who can forget the view that is there on every side spread before him? A veritable panorama, the most beautiful in Kansas, the view from Mount Oread not excepted!
Blue Mound is associated among my earliest recollections. The mound could be seen from my home hazily looming up in the distance, the nebulous blue tint surrounding it softening its outline and lending a charm and mystery to it. I never tired of watching the mound, especially towards evening, when the setting sun outlined it against the sky. In my childish way I wondered what manner of people lived there so far removed from me, and what was the mystery of that blue pile reposing peacefully far to the westward.
Had Blue Mound a story to tell? When I grew older I laughed at the idea; my reason said no, but I felt that my childish intuitions might be true. At last I had an opportunity to visit Blue Mound. When there I had in mind the answering of my childish questions. My first visit was unsuccessful. I found nothing that hinted of anything beyond the most prosaic. But I was not discouraged. On a second trip I went over the mound carefully, observing it at every point. On a slope of the hill which I had not previously examined, I found a sort of cave dug out of the side of the mound and covered branches of trees arched to form a covering. The cave had evidently been a rude human habitation many years deserted, for the roof had partly fallen in and the passage-way was overgrown with small trees and underbrush.
I pushed my way in and groped about in the dim light. As my eyes became accustomed to the change of light I saw that it had been occupied by someone as a dwelling. The place was damp and redolent of decay. In the farther end was a rude fireplace with a few ashes yet lying on the hearth. At the side of the room was a rude bunk. Examining closer I was startled to find a human skeleton, evidently of a man, partly covered by rotten clothings, tretched upon the bunk. My first impulse was to leave the place at once. But I conquered the impulse and resolved to discover, if possible, the history of the occupant of this strange place.
I examined the room, then the clothing and skeleton in the bunk. On one of the bony fingers I found a ring with the words "From
Delia" on the inside. My curiosity was fully aroused, but apparently there was nothing more which could give me any clue to the history of the place or its occupant. Finally I found a small tin box, much rusted, lying in one corner. With trembling fingers I pried it open. It contained nothing but a small piece of leaf tobacco and a scrap of paper. The paper was soiled and yellow with age. A few lines written in lead pencil were scrawled upon it. Taking the paper to the light I succeeded in deciphering the writing. It was as follows: "I feel my strength leaving me and that in a few days I will die. The story of my life would serve as a warning to the world, but I owe the world nothing. Society has outlawed, banished and scorned me. Women are false and men dastardly! With my dying breath I curse society and all who bow to its decrees!" That was all.
I hurried away with a feeling of relief. What bitterness must have been in that man's heart when he died: who was this man who evidently had shunned his fellow men, and what cause could have driven him away? These thoughts filled my mind as I walked homeward.
I notified the proper authorities of my discovery and an investigation was held. From the testimony of the old settlers it was learned that many years ago an old man had lived somewhere about Blue Mound, but they knew little concerning him. He shunned the settlers and very seldom came to town. They knew nothing of his history nor why he lived alone. He had disappeared years ago and it was generally believed he had left the country.
We buried him under a great cottonwood tree near his cave, but nothing more was ever learned regarding him, and the mystery of the old man of Blue Mound will probably never be cleared up.

ATHLETICS.
ST. JOE HAS organized a team tor this season, and will probably join the Western League. ___
YALE'S NEW CAGE is the finest in the country. It is well lighted and firmly padded, being thirty feet wide and over one hundred feet long. ___
THE TEAM FOR Saturday's game with Haskell Institute will be chosen from the following men, unless new material is soon developed: Hogeboom, Lewers, Mitchell, Alden, Matteson, Williamson, Chamberlain, Kelsey, Steinberg, McMahon, with Smith, Strothers, Wagner and Clark in the box.
THE FOLLOWING is the list of events to be contested in the Yale-Harvard games this spring: 100 and 220 yard dash; quarter-mile dash; half-mile and mile runs; one mile walk; 120 and 220 yard hurdle races; running high and broad jump, pole vault; putting shot and throwing hammer, and two-mile bicycle race. This list will be a good one to adopt for our contest with Nebraska.
AND STILL THE ball field is in the chaotic state of old. The posts have been removed from the out-field, but for some reason or other the parties neglected to take away the holes. So about every ten yards there exists a miniature well. Accidents are inevitable. The in-field is in a still more wretched shape. Further delay in this matter is inexcusable, and certainly does not reflect a large amount credit on those in authority.
THE FOLLOWING SUGGESTIONS, advanced by The Lantern, of the Ohio State University, might not be out of place in K. U.:
"We would suggest to the players, hard practice.
To the manager, vigorous oversight of the work of the team.
"To the captain, a fast place for the players.
To the captain, a last place for the players. 'To the students, to attend ever game at home and all possible abroad.
" To the faculty, to attend the games occasionally.
"To the band, to learn to blow louder at each game."
IT SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE for Madam Nature and athletics to arrive at an agreement. For of all disagreeable days on the calendar, the past two Saturdays hold the palm. The high wind and dust made playing impossible, and, in consequence, very little was attained. The candidates for the 'Varsity have been reduced very little, and the committee will not lack for available men. The most vulnerable point at present is in the box. Of course it is early in the season to predict, but—forewarned, forearmed, etc.
THE FOLLOWING ARE the crews and hours as furnished by the committee: Hill and Ricksecker, 5-6; Newton and Stewart—Raymond and Topping, 6-7; Parker and Jautzen-Ohler and Clark, 7-8; Duffer and Edwards, 2-3; Crosby and Shrouder-Taylor and Cheedle, 5-6; Allen, Waltmen and Galbreath, 6-7; Orrand Cox, Squires and Wyrick-Rigs and Brown, 7-8. If proper interest is shown, the association is willing to equip this department more fully and insure its place among K. U. athletics. It remains with you.
A SOPHOMORE ASKS that this article be printed: "The sporting editor of the Students' Journal is certainly not an admirer of the 'Baconian method.' For no mortal could predict future events and anticipate nature with the apparent certainty that clothes this athletic editor. Quantity evidently means far more than quality in his eyes. True indeed, the Seniors did post the largest notice, and did flaunt it longest, until their success made even the timid Freshman bold, and soon eyes were greeted with '97's announcement. But for no other reason than the above this same sporting editor does claim the honor of having the strongest nine in school, due to the Seniors. I have heard it rumored that the Sophomores immediately accepted the empty challenge, but were unable to secure a game. The Junior Laws suffered the same rebuff. O editor and Senior, thy reigning sin is not shyness."
THE UNIVERSITY ATHLETES are the only ones that are sorry the supply of Columbian stamps at the Lawrence post-office has given out. They were the only things of any size that they have been able to lick. —Topeka State Journal.
What latent forces of witicism, what mighty powers of thought, and last, but far from least, what admirable knowledge of the Queen's English must have been the property of the author of this squib Who knows but that a second William Nye may arise from the ranks of this evening sheet.

An annual prize of $60 is to be given at Dartmouth to the member of the athletic team standing highest in his studies.
The big universities have adopted the rule of the National League, in having the pitcher's box sixty feet from the home base.
Plans are being made for a field meet in Chicago, at which all the western colleges may contest for the championship of the West.
James Harding, K. S. U., Lawrence, Kansas, is the man to whom all communications for dates, etc., should be addressed-not to the athletic editor.
A new rule goes into effect this year. It is, that any player, while attempting to punct makes a foul, shall have a strike called on him for each foul so made.
The superintendent at West Point may allow foot-ball teams to come there and play if he deems it advisable. But the West Point team cannot go away and play.
The ball team of the College of Emporia has been chosen and is now put on the field for active work. V. L. Parrington and Ray Evans will do the battery work this season.
O Baker of Baldwin, has recent success made you forget past and future? Has '93's eleven obliterated memories of field-day, base-ball (III times) and tennis? "O say, wont you come out and play."
From the present outlook, it appears that Coleman will have little trouble in getting his athletic team in good shape. New material is out every night. We congratulate Mr. Coleman on his early efforts.
The University of North Carolina has decided to discourage football until the rules of the game are so modified as to make it less dangerous; also to forbid attendance of students on games away from home except upon written request of father or guardian.
