Athletics
The scheme suggested by the Courier of having an inter-frat base ball league is a good one and should be carried out. There are several "frats" that have men enough for a whole team and one or two left to carry bats, etc. "Theta Nu Epsilon" might furish umpires.
Some one has discovered that the new athletic association has commenced operations without formally finishing up the business of the old association. The Board of Directors should have made a full and complete report to the Association including a statement of the financial resources. This would be just as the students of the University are interested in the welfare of Association and should know what is being done. The mistake should be corrected *a* once.
The senior team will probably play as follows: Howell, catcher; Topping, pitcher; Piatt, 1st base; Harvey, second base; Hogg, third; base Rothrock, short stop; Hill, right field; Corbin, center field; and Buchan, left field. The Faculty team is practicing industriously, and the great game will come off tomorrow.
The secretary of the Athletic Association has received a letter from Joseph Adams, secretary of the Chicago Athletic Association, in regard to the field contest to be held in Chicago June 2nd. The programme will be as has been announced in the STUDENT'S JOURNAL and will be participated in by the principal colleges of the west. The University association is requed to send delegates and should take an active part in the contest. Chicago University, Oberlin College, Purdue University and the universities of Wisconsin and Illinois have entered the contest so far and K. U. should be represented. There are several men in active training at present
who would creditably represent the University. The association should do something before it is too late.
The State Field Athletic Meet will be held at McCook Field on May 30th. The colleges of the state will enter.
The Board of Directors has decided to give an opportunity to all who may desire to pay their membership fees and obtain shares in the Athletic Association. The fee may be paid to Treasurer Moody at any time. Every student in the University should have interest enough in University affairs and athletics to help the association at least to the extent of fifty cents'.
Harry Kendall, of Champaign, IL, is preparing an article for "Outing" on football in western universities. He will give the history of football in Purdue, Lake Forest, the Universities of Michigan, Missouri, Iowa and Kansas. K.U. will be given an illustrated article.
The M. S. U. Independent says that whenever the Athletic Association gets up a base ball excursion over there everybody ge's on a beautiful jag. This is a mistake. They should at least be limited to the home grounds. An advisory committee is recommended.
The Senior team defeated the Phil Delts last Wednesday by a score of 18 to 0. Next!
Baker s'ill continues her record-breaking course-Ottawa 14, Baker 5, Haskell 4, Baker 1.
The State Normal School has written to the Athletic Association that no contestant's will be sent to the State Field Athletic Meet to be held here on May 30th. One reason given is that they have no athletes available, and another is that May 30th being set apart as a Memorial Day, should not be desecrated by such affairs. This sounds more like Baker than the State Normal.
The Bakeries have decided not to have any State Field Day Contest at Baldwin this year. This leaves a clear field for the Sate Cotest arrange by K. U.
The games at St. Joe last week were not very successful. St. Joe won the Friday's game by a score of 21 to 7, and Saturday's game by 15 to 3. The boys played good ball, but were slightly out classed.
A return game with the McCooks will be played at Leavenwor h to-morrow.
It is to be hoped that the High School Field Contest to-morrow will be a success. There is probably no better means of developing athletics for future University contests, and it is to be regretted that more high schools have not entered.
A play will probably be given at the Opera House on May 12th, for the benefit of the Athletic Association. Announcements will be made later.
Kinzie, one of K. U.'s old athletes, is in the Cornell Law School and may complete his law course at K. U. next year. He says that Cornell is no better than the University of Kansas and offers no better facilities in any direction, and has only a fair base ball team this year.
The Senior-Facul y base ball game which is the most exciting event in Athle circles of the whole year, will come off to-morrow afternoon at McCook field. The Seniors will be out in force with their class colors and with the aid of the Sophomores expect to ou-l everything in the University y.

The Spring Oratorical Contest-
The University Spring Oratorical contest which took place last Friday night was a grand success in furthering the oratorical interests in the State University. Whereas last year there were only three contestants, this year there was the full number, six contestants. A fair sized and very enthusiastic crowd gathered to hear the orators.
President Charles H. Lease of the Oratorical association presided.
After the invocation by Dr. Cordley, Miss Summerfield rendered a very good vocal solo, and the first speaker, Mr. Scott, was introduced. Mr. Scott's voice was a great hindrance to his speaking, and possibly accounts for his rank. Mr. Mr. Hopkins did very well considering the subject which he had to handle, which had to do with farms and farming.
A piano solo was next given by Miss Wilson.
Mr.' Mason was the next speaker, and although his voice was not at all distinct, his oration was more interesting to the audience than the preceding ones. Mr. McMurray followed in the winning oration on "The Character of Demosthenes." His voice was round and full and his delivery very good.
After a solo by Miss Mamie Berry, Mr. Eli Cann was introduced and spoke on "Herbert Spencer's Theory of the State." Mr. Cann used his usual debater's delivery, which although defective from an oratorical standpoint, is very effective from an argumentative point of view. His oration received the highest grades as to thought and composition. Mr. Mayo Thomas was the next speaker. His subject was "The Anglo-American," and he did it full justice. His delivery shows marked improvement over that of last fall in the local contest here.
Mr. Higgins gave several comic selections which were received with great applause.
The markings of the judges are as follows:

--men." Prof. Hopkins favors such a plan.
PROFESSORS who have classes immediately following the chapel exercises are complaining because the exercises are frequently prolonged beyond the time allotted to them, thus cutting very short the 9 to 10 o'clock class time.
We publish this week an article on the University fee system. We believe that it is a subject of sufficient importance to be discussed, and we hereby tender the use of our-columns to anyone wishing to continue the discussion.
As has already been noticed in The Quill columns, the coming catalogue will announce a new feature of the curriculum—a debating course. By inquiry among the students, we find that the course seems to be in great favor, and the classes organized for it will undoubtedly be filled to their utmost capacity. The plan followed is similar to that in use at the Harvard University; two hours instruction per week will be given, and as the membership of the classes is to be limited, each individual member will no doubt receive much good.
Our literary societies, while indispensable in their way, have the serious defect of not being systematic; add to that the incompetence of the average student to discipline himself, and it will be seen that the debating course will take the place of a guide, while the literary societies will be valuable supplements.—S. U. I. Quill.
Such items as the above show that the paramount importance to the student of the ability to debate is being more and more fully appreciated. The increase of interest in K. U. in this work has been very high this year, as is evidenced by the arrangement of a commencement debating contest between the members of the two debating societies. K. U. can not afford to allow interest in this work again to decline.
The Joint Debate With Nebraska.
Prof. Hopkins has received a letter from Prof. Adams of the English Department of Nebraska University in regard to the proposed joint debate. Prof. Adams writes that a meeting of the students and Faculty was called, at which about one hundred and fifty were present and that the unanimous sentiment was in favor of the joint debate. He will send propositions for such a joint debate as soon as possible.
The custom of Harvard and Princeton in their joint debate system has been to choose the question as soon as the debaters are chosen, but not to assign sides to the debaters until twenty-four hours before the debate is to take place. This gives the debaters a chance to look up both sides of the question in order to have information on hand for every emergency. This plan also makes the debates more original and encourages quickness of thought and readiness of reply—in fact it develops "all-around
It seems that Prof. Adams is a Cornell man, and that their system of joint debate is to assign the debaters sides as soon as the question is chosen, and to give them the side of the question with which they are in sympathy as far as possible. Prof. Adams favors this plan.
It will certainly be the better course in our opinion to choose the sides for debate by lot, and as shortly as possible before the debate comes off, as that will be the means of promoting fresh, original speaking among the students, and will do away with the "cut-and dried" system which is proposed.
Our University Fee System.
Our University must advance Students, professors, and other citizens of Kansas denounce anyone who would thwart its progress. We would consider him an enemy not only to the State, but also to himself. We are so firm in such convictions, so zealous in our endeavors to further educational interests that loyalty to our institution often leads us in wrong paths to secure that degree of proficiency we insist upon having.
It sounds very well to hear that our faculty comprises fifty-one members, that our library contains over twenty thousand volumes, that our laboratory facilities are unparalleled in the state, that our museums are full, overflowing, containing many rare specimens unknown to our rival institutions. But does this constitute the true university? To a casual observer, perhaps so; but to the person accustomed to such appearing things as these they are merely working tools.
If library, laboratories, museums be not the true signs of a University's progress, what are? A large body of energetic, enthusiastic students whose whole lives are centered in their work; who recognize that the time to perform the purpose for which they are here, is limited, whose great aim is to fit themselves for the higher duties of life—these students are just as essential to any University as any building, these the ones whom the state proudly expects to take soon a prominent position in the affairs of society, these the ones who will sally the fair name of our institution if they do not do so. The more of such men we get within the walls of our University the greater will be her progress, the more extended her influence, the larger her appropriations.
The intention of our generous legislators is to provide free education for all the ambitions and intelligent youths of our state, capable of availing themselves of the advantages offered. Liberal appropriations are made every session of our legislature, and as the needs of the University increase, appropriations grow larger. Even during the last session of our legislature when some of us believed the state was on the verge of war, and every politician of the opposite belief was denounced in the most scathing terms imaginable, our state educational institutions fared as well if not better than ever before. Our own university has had or soon will have three new buildings. The appropriation for the library was doubled over the preceding session, the appropriations for our different laboratories and different departments were also increased; in short, we fared exceedingly well.
Why is this generosity? It has been proven again and again that our representative government must have an intelligent body of citizens, men who, given the privilege of voting for the safety and perpetuity of the state, know how to exercise it safely. To secure such a body of citizens our common school system was instituted. The pioneers of our state incorporated it as a fundamental principle into our state constitution. Succeeding legislatures have given as large appropriations for the State University as graduates of our institution could reasonably be asked to do, until the head of our common school system has collected upon Mt. Oread eight or nine of the largest school buildings in the state of Kansas.
Still we are not satisfied. We are tinged with the grasping spirit of the Kansas farmer. Our endeavors to grow have become so great that even now when we ought to rejoice over the generosity of the state, apparently we become indignant that our appropriations were not doubled or trebled, and we are going contrary to the letter and spirit of our laws. Our grasping nature has led our authorities to adopt a plan which in time will deprive a vast number of self-supporting students of the advantages of our state university
of Kansas. Read further the specific appropriations made each session of the legislature to the different departments of our institution, remember that these appropriations are made with the express or implied understanding that no fees shall be charged to the students of the State University. Consider that the generosity of the legislators shows plainly what their intention was when they framed our laws. Is there, then, one reasonable man who will say that our system of fees is legal?
What is that plan? Look at the statutes of Kansas. Read there that no admission fee to the State University shall be charged to any students
We believe that the stability of our institution depends upon the number of thorough students enrolled. That a large faculty, a well stored library, well equipped laboratories, and full museums are worthless unless used. Let fees grow as they have grown, let us legalize at the next session of our legislature what every person who has given the subject a moment's thought, recognizes as illegal; let us deprive one-half or the whole of our present self-supporting students, fifty per cent of our whole number, of the advantages offered by the State; let us use the character of the student body from a large class of earnest students to a small body of fashionable, society-loving men and women, and I again ask in all the simplicity of a Kansas is there another reasonable man who will say that this fee system is for the best interests of our schools?
The Pharmacy student need not ask, what is the fee system? Forty dollars before you register in your classes. Nor the music student. One hundred dollars a year if you please. Nor those students whose whole lives would be shaped differently if they had funds to pay the regular illegal fees. Nor those students who perhaps work all day in the laboratories and are required to pay the library fee. Most assuredly students are acquainted with the fee system.
It is said that the fees are small. Yet they are continually increasing. Not long ago the Pharmacy student paid ten dollars a year, now he pays more than forty. Fees for which there is no legal or moral justification such as the library fee, are now levied apparently with no more forethought than that we have a treasurer who ought to be employed in collecting the fees, or perhaps that many of those students able to come to school for only one year shall be debarred from any of the advantages intended to be free to all. It is the principle of the fee system that we oppose.
When we speak in this strain our loyalty is immediately questioned. It is presumed that this is a family affair; that we ought to pay increased and illegal fees without a murmur and hush this complaint which has been so common this year as to resemble almost an open rebellion. But what is loyalty to our institution? Is keeping quiet and allowing matters to go from bad to worse loyalty? Does loyalty mean that we shall allow ourselves to be deprived of the educational advantages of our state without a word of complaint? Is he a truly loyal student who would remove fifty per cent of our hardest working students or our self-supporting student body? Is it not apparent that when this class of students who attend the University of Kansas one year and teach school the next will be deprived of the advantages of higher education now apparently offered by the state, the person advocating the fee system is a thousand and times more disloyal than the opposer of the fee system?
We are also told by our professors that students do not appreciate the advantages offered by the state hence levying fees upon the students will make them appreciate such advantages. Who does not appreciate the generosity of the state? Is it the student who is doing his utmost to get by honest means, the money with which to pay his necessarily high expenses in Lawrence? Can it be the student, who during vacation goes to work in the harvest field or the coal mine? I doubt it very much. If there are any who do not appreciate the advantages offered, it is the class whose money is furnished by others able to pay such a student's expenses without inquiring whither goes it? When we are told that we do not appreciate the advantages of our school we do not like to be presumptuous but we do feel like asking when we are deprived of such advantages, can we then appreciate them?
That is not the only sophistry which we are compelled to meet. It is said that our fee system will keep out many of the society girls of Lawrence, who register as students merely to get into society cliques. If there are any such students our professors are flagrantly insulting their students from other parts of the state but the persons uttering such statements evidently forgot that if we have such students, fifty or one
hundred dollars tuition—cloak it in whatever form you wish—would not prevent their attaining their object's. Nay, such a fee would rather increase their number, for our self-supporting student's removed, our body of s'udens' would soon become a small, fashionable society, in o which the "uppers" of Lawrence would pay any sum to get.
Our opponent must surely be desperate when they ask: How shall we get money otherwise than by fees? Has the State not always been more than a generous father, for it is always able to pay the expense while loving fathers might like to do so yet would not be able. Allow me to ask: How will you get money this way? The supporters of our University are the middle class tax-payers. These men are not able to send their sons and daughters to a school where expenses are too high. Make them feel that the statement we have all heard so often that our University is becoming a school for the rich man's children, is true and soon their representatives will go to the legislature with instructions to reduce or abolish our appropriations.
Our school, if it is to exist, must be advertised. Our foot ball team may do something in this line; our base ball team may help the matter along somewhat; our university extension lectures certainly do no harm in bringing the university before the public, even if they are injurious to resident students; yet the only real lasting advertisement is that which the student himself gives. As students we are expected to convert our lungs into trumpets and stand in crowded places to sound the praises of our University. But when a student leaves school with the impression that he is not wanted; that there is a concerted movement on foot to remove him, the feeble advertisement that the average student will give, and the vigorous denunciation of a few, bodies no good for our university. Citizens consider student's informed upon such topics as the university fee sys'em and when the students denounce the action of the authorities of our school, citizen are apt to pay attention to the report and act accordingly.
It is strange that we should be denounced as "cranks" on this subject, especially when higher education in our state is in danger of passing from the hands of poorer students, when it is not an uncommon report that this fee system question will come before the next legislature for legalizing or for entire abolition. The time has come when you must show your position. If you believe that state educational institutions should be frequented by all classes of students then stand for a free school. If you believe that a fee system such as we are gradually having brought upon us, will raise the standard of our school, fight it out in your way. Yet be broad-minded enough to respect others holding a different opinion, o hers who have petitioned our regents, and are told our petitions are generally unrecognized, to say nothing of being answered. Is there more to be done? The next meeting place must be before a higher tribunal—before the Kansas courts or the Kansas legislature. ELI CANN.
The Land of the Sky
Is not quite sky high, but is just far enough up from the sea to have a bracing climate. New Mexico is meant. And it offers something for the wealth-seeker as well as for the health-seeker, Beautiful apples, grapes and other fruits are grown in the lower Rio Grande valley, and in the Maxwell grant there are varied attractions for the general farmer. If you ask Nicholson, of the Santa Fe Route, Topeka, he will send you a New Mexico folder, which tells most of the story.
The Juniors Eat Humble Pic
The May pole contest Tuesday gave the Juniors an opportunity to cat humble plee with apparently great relish. The Freshman flag floated high above that of the Juniors—a feature entirely contrary to all precedent. Indeed, former Junior classes would never have permitted such a slight to their dignity.
The contest had two other novel features, the first being that the pole was planted outside the campus. Here the Freshmen found an open ditch in which they placed their flag pole thus having an almost impregnable position defended on two sides by the ditch six feet deep.
The second innovation was that when one o'clock came, the flags were taken down without molestation from the opposing parties. This feature cannot be too highly spoken of, and it is hoped that it will establish a precedent for future classes to observe. It is easily seen that the last hour's fighting is the one which causes the Worst after effects, and is also the fearest. Hence this unnecessary fight will be abolished.

OUR STUDY WINDOW.
The Opening of the Strip.
"Won't you have some? Do; help yourself," said a large burly Irishman sitting opposite me on board a Santa Fe train going southward through the new territory of Oklahoma, recently opened. I had selected my seat because of the variety of character to be studied from it. Before我 sat the Irishman, evidently a professional "dead beat:" a thick, heavy set man, with a red face and low forehead, and a bushy head of ungovernable hair. He had taken a thick piece of bread covered with yellow butter from a greasy paper sack, and then offered another to me. A gambler sat by the Irishman: he was slight of stature, salow complexion, with black eyes and hair. By my side sat a farmer's boy, a great big overgrown baby, with a countenance lacking intelligence. Around us were men of almost every character.
The ride through the strip is about sixty miles, over a barren, waste country. The grass had been burned and the prairie was black as far as eye could see. The stopping places were simply Indian stations; here and there a town-site was laid out, of which only the surveyor's stakes could now be seen. As we rolled on, our Irish friend entertained us with some of his many experiences while trying to 'beat' his way on the train. His favorite plan was to plead poverty, and the dependence of a wife and seven children. My companions left me at the little station of Orlando at the south edge of the strip. I continued my journey to Guthrie, twenty miles distant.
At Guthrie I was met by my uncle who placed me in training preparatory to making the race. My uncle's family consisted of himself, his wife and a son, twenty years of age. My uncle is a man of almost perfect physical proportions, six feet two inches tall and weighing almost two hundred pounds. My aunt is quite a small woman, weighing less than a hundred pounds. My cousin Al has the will and independence of my uncle, but unlike him, is small of stature. Did I say this was all the family? No, it was not; there were two young ladies; one a visitor from a western Kansas town, a very jolly girl of eighteen, the other was a Kentucky belle then residing in Guthrie, a very dear friend of my cousin's. She had jet black eyes and hair, was just a little below medium height, and very pretty. She had an appealing way of rolling her eyes when she wanted anything, and one could not deny her request.
It was just a week before the opening, and I had to go into training at once. Of course we intended to make the race on horseback, and I being a Kansas house plant, must be hardened so that I could stand a jog of sixteen miles. We, my cousin and myself, rode morning and evening,—rode, not on a gallop, but on a jolting trot. My horse was a bay Texas broncho, not especially noted for his speed as a racer, but with an enviable reputation as a stayer, and as tough as some of the beefsteak served at College boarding clubs.
Our plan was this: we would increase our number to six, ride to Orlando on Thursday, register Friday, then be ready for the race on Saturday. In accordance with this plan, we invited Bud, a young man with a very broad hat and a black pony, to join us; also Sam, a tall gaunt fellow with a far away gaze and a large bony bay mare, a race horse with a short tail, and Leslie, a regular Missourian who had become thoroughly acquainted with Oklahoma manners and customs, and who rode the ugliest yellow pony I ever saw. This constituted our company as we left Guthrie early Thursday morning for Orlando. My uncle lead the way with a covered democrat wagon in which were stored our provisions. On the seat by his side sat a huge tan colored bull dog named Dan. Back of the wagon we followed, riding our horses.
We reached Orlando about three o'clock in the afternoon, after an uneventful journey, drove immediately to an acquaintances, and stabled our horses. As I have already said, Orlando is a small country town, very much like other country towns, except that on this occasion the place was flooded with people of all kinds and all classes. If you can imagine the crowd that frequents the thoroughfare of a large city on a busy day then you may have some idea of this crowd. To add to the discomfort, there had been no rain for four or five weeks and the wind blew great clouds of dust: water was scarce, food of all kinds was nearly exhausted, and there was the great crowd dirty, hungry, thirsty. The booths were situated a mile north of the town
on the state line. The road leading to the booths was lined with people coming and going. There was a village of tents around the booths, and this village was crowded with people. From each of the five booths extended a line a mile in length—a list of men and women waiting to register. They were numbered and wore their numbers on their hats as train passengers carry tickets.
We slept in a tent on Thursday evening and went to the booths Friday morning. How to register in the quickest way was the question now confronting us. We lined up and received our numbers, but this promised to be a slow process as we would doubtless have to wait until Saturday morning before registration, remaining in line all night. This was not a pleasant prospect. However, my uncle knew the superintendent of the booths quite well, and about ten o'clock he took me to the superintendent's headquarters and introduced me to him. The superintendent asked我 to accompany him, which I did most zealously. After we had walked around a few moments conversing, the superintendent entered one of the booths, stationing me outside the rope which surrounded the booth and served to keep the people away. In a moment, within the hearing of the clerks, the superintendent turned and inquired in a loud voice, "Where is that boy who brought those papers?" I called out, "Here he is," and was told to come in and register. How the other boys registered I do not know, but when I returned to the wagon for dinner I found they had all registered.
About four o'clock my aunt and the two girls arrived on the train and we showed them the town. In the evening we hitched up, drove out to the edge of the town and camped for the night. After a good hot supper we went to bed, my aunt and the two girls sleeping in the wagon, and my uncle and cousin and I on the ground underneath the wagon. Old Dan kept guard. The night was cold and we almost froze. About four o'clock I was awakened by the cry of "Whon! Joe, here's your mule." The cry was uttered first at a considerable distance in the quiet of the cool morning air, then taken up by other voices nearer until it seemed to me that hundreds were uttering it. After breakfast we drove back to town and held a council as to the best way of entering the strip. After careful consultation we decided to give up the former plan and instead to board the first train and make for the town of Perry, ten miles away. This was our fatal mistake. The special agent of the Interior department and the officials of the Santa Fe were quarreling about the point from which the train should start, the agent desiring the train to start from the state line, and the officials from the town of Criando. This was important to us, because we must know when to board the train. We followe the advice of the interior department and went to the state line.
As the time neared twelve o'clock the people began to form in line for the race. All along the railroad track was a great mass of people expecting to take the train. On either side as far as the eye could see was a motley herd of men, women and children; some with wagons, some on horseback some with mule or ox teams, some in fine buggies awaiting the signal to start. At 11:40 a gun was fired by someone and the whole line suddenly darted forward. The signal was a false one, but there was no stopping the line; forward it rushed. We could see the race but a mile, as a row of hills hid it from view beyond this distance. It was in some respects a pleasant sight. As the great mass of horses bent low in the race running with their great strength and began to take the positions according to their speed, the race was very exciting. But in a few moments the unharmed racers were beyond the hills. Now, as we looked back on the prairie over which the race had been made we saw the remains of hundreds of broken vehicles—some with a wheel missing, some with two wheels missing, some smashed to pieces. Around some of these conveyances stood women with babes in their arms, children and old men. The women were crying, the children screaming, the old men with their last hope of getting an earthly home shattered.
This was too much for me. I turned away.
of one boy, who, seeing a brake underneath a car not occupied crawled under the car when the train was moving, rode on the brake ten miles, and crawled out again while the train was still moving.
away.
But where was our train? It was now past the starting time and no train had appeared. At 12:20 the first train steamed out of the city and passed us without stopping. It had been loaded in town. Every available place was occupied; above the cars, below the cars, in the cars, on the engine, everywhere that a human being could stick, there one clung. I know
The second and third trains steamed by as packed and jammed with humanity as ever. The fourth train stopped, and we mounted a flat car, As we flew along with the train we could see people standing on the hills, their flags flying on the quarter sections they claimed. Leaving Perry we overtook some of the riders whose horses had almost tagged out. Crossing a deep ravine I saw at its bottom a horse saddled and bridled with its neck broken. As we steamed into Perry, what had been a week before a barren waste, showing only the surveyor's stakes, was now covered with human beings. While the train was still moving, a woman threw her baggage out of the window of the car and then jumped out herself. What became of her I never learned. When the train stopped my mcleus, cousin and myself jumped off, ran to one side of the town, and took possession of three lots, which we held for a couple of hours, but finally gave up because they were valueless.
After giving up the lots, we spent the time until the first train went south in walking around the town and viewing the sights. Sick horses, some of them fine spirited and beautiful animals, having been over-ridden, were now in the agonies of death. Upon nearly every business lot there was a fight in progress concerning its ownership. In some places women even fought with men. I remember one laughable sight, where a woman and a man were occupying the same lot. The woman had concluded that the best way to get rid of the man was to throw his belongings into the street, and she was hard at work when I came up. The man was imploring her to cease her efforts to displace his property, and permit the marshal, whom he had sent for, to decide the case. She was crying, but still de termined, and would not accede to his wishes. Finally, his patience was overtaxed; he jumped up, shook his fist in her face, and screamed out: "Madam, I would give fifty dollars if you were a man!" Then the crowd in ternosed and separated them.
There were two blocks reserved, one for a court house square, the other for a public park. The business lots faced these reserve blocks. The "sooners" had removed the stakes so that the location of lots was very uncertain. As I was passing the court house square reserve, a man hailed me, wanting to sell his lot. I thought it in the reserve and told him so but he was vehement in his protestations to the contrary. Finally we struck a bargain for $5; I having only 50 cents in change, paid him that to bind the bargain, took possession of the lot, and in turn hailed every man who passed to sell out to him. Two gentlemen came up and proposed renting the lot. I rented it to them for one month for $5, and went on $4 ahead. Somehow I never could find the man from whom I purchased the lot to pay him the balance.
During the afternoon my aunt and the two girls came up to see the town of Perry. We accidentally met them, and after showing them the sights all took the five o'clock train, the women for Guthrie, Al and myself for Orlando. Late in the evening we built a camp-fire, made some coffee, and enjoyed one of the best meals I ever ate. It consisted of strong coffee, dry bread and onions. About nine o'clock Al and I saddled our horses and started for home, preferring a ride through the night rather than through the heat of the morrow's sun. About one o'clock we arrived in Guthrie, dirty and hungry.
What became of the rest of the party? My uncle had taken the afternoon train for home. Sam, Bud and Leslie, when they saw how late the morning train was in starting returned to the stable, saddled their horses and made the race on horseback. After a time they came to a quarter section claimed by a man without a hat, but with a long story about his horse's having run off and left him, who seemed anxious to sell his right. Thinking him a sooner, they with the assistance of a Winchester and a couple of revolvers, prevailed upon him to waive all claims to the quarter and depart. In the course of a week they returned to Guthrie and related their experience.
What do I think of the opening? I think it is one of the most dangerous and unfair methods ever devised by man for settling new territory. L. W. R.

THE COLLEGE WORLD.
To ye Exchange Editor upon whom ye STUDENT'S JOURNAL calls for the first time:
It is our hope to make our College World a department of particular interest to our readers by giving them the benefit of bits of news, wit and verse which appear in other college publications. We wish to let them know through our columns what is taking place at other universities, especially state universities; and we know that this depends very much upon the number of our exchanges. If you receive our sheet this week we hope you will not fail to put us on your exchange list. We will endeavor to do our part toward bettering the lot of the much abused exchange editor.
An interesting and amusing side of the Exchange Editor's task is watching the little squibs and verbs go the rounds in the exchange columns. Some of these seem never to stop rotating. One may first appear in one paper; next week perhaps nearly all the papers we get have taken charge of it; then we may not see or hear of it again for weeks or months. But here it comes again; of all things! Of course somebody must develop the philosopher's lines and scribble off the funny rhymes before they start on their trips; but they soon become common property and excuse us from undertaking to discover who those wise and witty ones are and how outragously fooled is the Exchange man, too, sometimes. He gets hold of some breezy bit of nothing, and smiles all over as he thinks how people will laugh when reading it. But hardly will the paper be out, before someone asks where he got that chestnut and tells him that every other exchange editor before him has put it in the same paper. And he thought it was so fresh. What queer histories some of the Ex's could tell if they would.

Odds and Ends.
Referring to the action of the new University of Wales in providing that degrees of music may be conferred on women, one writer says: "Xor need the Welsh, as has been whimsically suggested, have recourse to that awful expression 'Spinster in Musie.' Bachelor is not only a recognized term in University life, but it was formerly applied to an unmarried woman. For example, in Ben Jonson's 'Magnetic Lady' we find that 'He would keep you a bachelor still' * * * without a husband.'" We are relieved to find that the term bachelor is correct, although we never could be persuaded that the word spinster was proper for a co-educational institution.
The following appeared in the columns of the Harvard Advocate as an editorial comment on the action of the Faculty in forbidding the use of punch at Commencement celebrations. We suppose, as the west is expected to cultivate the eastern style in everything that we will have to come to this: "It seems necessary to quote * * * * the following pearl from Lord Campbell, Chief Justice of England: 'An occasional booze' (we regret the last word, and suggest that "punch" be read in its stend)—an occasional punch has a favorable tendency to excite the faculties, to warm the affections, to improve the manners and to form the character of youth.' There is much sound philosophy in this, although somewhat hodemonistic."

The Land of the Sky
Notes from the Chancellor's Office
Is not quite sky high, but is just far enough up from the sea to have a braving climate. New Mexico is meant. And it offers something for the wealth-seeker as well as for the health-seeker. Beautiful apples, grapes and other fruits are grown in the lower Rio Grande valley, and in the Maxwell grant there are varied attractions for the general farmer. If you ask Nicholson, of the Santa Fe Route, Topeka, he will send you a New Mexico folder, which tells most of the story.
Chancellor Snow went to Kansas City Tuesday evening to give his University Extension Class in Evolution an examination.
Tuesday, May 15th, Chancellor Snow delivers the graduating address at the Hays City High School.
Prof. Dunlap and wife were very pleasantly entertained Tuesday, May 1st, at a reception given at the close of the Professor's course of University Extension lectures in Kansas City, Kansas.
Prof. Chas, Dunlap will act as one of the judges at the Inter-state High School Oratorical Contest between Kansas and Missouri High Schools to be held this evening.
As Chancellor Snow will be in Hays City next Tuesday, the last lecture of the course on Evolution will be postponed.
Nayler Seuarwenka.
Belongs to a family which has won the highest distinction in the musical world. He shares with his older brother, Philip, the honor of international fame, as a teacher and composer, and beyond that occupies a place in the first rank as a piano-virtuoso. His reputation as founder and director of the Conservatory of Music in Berlin which bears his name, is based on the success of an institution from which very many promising and brilliant American students have graduated during the past decade.
In Memoriam
Herr Scharwenka holds the appointment of Court Priest to the Emperor of Austria and the title Royal Prussian Professor. He is one of the most thoroughly representative men of the modern school of German musicians, to which belongs his brother, Philip Moritz, Moskowski, and Jean Nicode.
Knabe pianos used exclusively.
The professor of Greek in the University Faculty for a short time following the year 1872 was Byron C. Smith, a very young and a very bright man. He was very popular, and one of his closest friends was Prof. D. O. Kellogg, professor of History and of English Language and Literature. Professor Smith died not many years after leaving the University, and every year at the anniversary of his friend's death Prof. Kellogg has written a poem as a tribute to his memory. There are few instances of a friend showing such fidelity so many years after the two have been separated by death. The poem is taken from the "Humboldt Union."
IN MEMORIAM—B. C. 8
† May 3rd, 1877.
I never saw thy grave. This peaceful night
A thousand miles away how looks the scene?
Would it were pictured, dressed in vernal green
Or in the virgin snow wreaths purely dight
Or when soft moonbeams flood the
hallowed ground
Or when the dreary rain drop on it falls!
I'd hang each landscape on my study walls
And wrap me in my memories around.
My love one day shall be my académie,
Thy knighthood always was, but I
shall be
Ennobled in appreciating thee
Enobled in appreciating thee
When faithfulness is in heaven's bal-
When faithfulness is in heaven's balance weighed, latch thee into that shant
I ask not that I beam as thou shalt shine.
But only that my star be satellite of thine.
Belmont, N. Y., April 1894.

The Farm and Fireides is making a vigorous protest against the action of those who are attempting to have the postage on second-class mail matter increased from the present one-cent rate to eight cents. The STUDENTS' JOURNAL very heartily agrees with the Farm and Fireides on this question. The passage of the proposed act would so greatly increase the cost of mailing newspapers that the STUDENTS' JOURNAL would have either to suspend publication or to abandon its method of serving subscribers through the mails.
The disagreeable mortal who goes about showing no consideration for the feelings or convenience of others, is to be found amon college students as well as in every other class of what are supposed to be civilized people. His actions, however, are those of a savage He goes about making the corners of the halls of the University buildings so dirty with tobacco and other things that we wonder if it will not be necessary to put up the familiar sign of the street car and the railroad waiting room, "Gentlemen will please not —————————” He goes into the library reading room and if an article in any of the newspapers please him, he cuts it out even though it be a paper that several hundred other students are awaiting an opportunity to read. He does many other things of the same nature, but these two have been brought to our attention during the past week and we therefore mention them.
Or late years the Senior Classes of the University have given as much thought and attention to the preparation of Class Day programs as to those of Commencement Day. The exercises have, as a consequence, been very interesting and entertaining. Another result, as the Senior Class Day Committee of 94 can testify, has been the establishment of a standard of excellence that is hard to maintain. The present committee, however, composed of very bright and witty members of the Senior class, has been hard at work endeavoring to prepare a program that will maintain this high standard and we are assured that they have been so successful that those who may be lead by experiences of former years to anticipate a pleasant entertainment on class day may be sure that they will have their expectations fully realized. The class will give a play of its own composition in which special attention will be paid to noteworthy University characters and events.
Some Peculiar English-
At the last meeting of the Language Conference Prof, Wilcox read, as an example of translation from German into English, a letter he had received from Leipzig advertising the sale of an eminent scholar's library. The following are some extracts from the letter:
"As a matter of course the philological journals are represented by absolutely complete copies. Besides there are large series and rows of the Academies of Berlin, Munich, Vienna, Gottingen, etc. The late unfortunate owner of these collections, who attained the age of 83, has for nearly 70 years brought together with indefatigable zeal all that has been published in the classical philological direction of important works. I wish to add that the library contains all the hand-copies of Prof. Souppe's works."
It is therefore not surprising that the collection in question has been called by a well-known philologist, a philologi-
al hand library that is unique or alone in its kind, a library that has grown together with the labor and the life of a scientific man and which is not to be had for hundred-thousands a second time in that completeness. In case you should intend to secure the collection for yourself or for your college, please oblige me with a brief telegraphic message to prevent the library being disposed of further in the meantime. A catalogue does not exist at the present moment; I hope however, that the same will be completed by this time and will be to your disposition for a short time. A catalogue of this excellent collection is regarded in my opinion as not necessary to have, besides the sending of it will require very much time, and the whole collection at all events shall be settled by December 10th, of this year. The forwarding will take place from Gottingen with a notary attesting that the collection comprises all of the works left by Professor Souppe. I am sir, etc. The Professor also read the following notice which was hung up in a railway carriage in Italy: "The throwing out of carriages of jugs, bottles, etc., thereby the servants of the company and passers-by may be endangered, is strictly for, bidden."
Essentials of Practice of Pharmacy by Lucius E. Sayre, Ph. G. Second Edition Revised. W. B. Saunders & Co., Philadelphia.
Prof. Sayre's Pharmacy Book.
THE University is now fairly well represented in the field of text books. The works of several of our professors are in use in various schools, and some of them are of such merit that they have successfully passed through the crucial first edition, and have appeared in the new garb of a second edition. Of this number is Professor Sayre's little manual, which is cataloged as No. 18 of Samurer's Question Compends. This series of works represents the labors of some of the best specialists in this country and it is no little honor to Prof. Sayre and to the University that he has been chosen to present the subject of Pharmacy in the series.
Other additions are: An outline of drug and plant analysis, pharmaceutical texture of inorganic chemicals, and a list of problems in allegation and specify gravity. Altogether the book is neatly and tastefully gotten up and is really a work of merit.
In looking over the new edition of this work, we notice a number of important improvements over the old edition. In the first place the book has been revised to conform to the new standard of pharmaceutical science, the Pharmacopoeia of 1893-94.
In this respect Prof. Sayre's book is one of the first in the field. Besides this revision a number of additions have been made. Prominent among these is a series of structural formulas of representative compounds.

THE FOSSIL SNAKE.
The Capital's Bad Break.
Some weeks ago there appeared in the Topeka Capital a column article describing a monster fossil snake which had been found near Beloit, Kansas, and which was on exhibition in the State House. This article was copied by other papers and went the rounds of the State. Wednesday Dr. Williston was in Tepeka and took occasion to examine this wonderful snake. He saw at once that the specimen was nothing else than the body of a pine tree. The part on exhibition is about thirty-five feet long and contains the bottom of the trunk from which the roots start. This portion the Capital called the head of the snake. The Professor remarked that a temperance city like Topeka might be expected to have reporters who know the difference be tween a snake and a pine tree.
OUR STUDY WINDOW.
While riding on the cars the other day, I listened with much eagerness to a conversation somewhat as follows, between the conductor of the train and one of the passengers.
The Patient Farmer.
Said the conductor, looking out of the window at a field of wheat, yellow and blighted on account of the late frosts, but which only a few days before had given promise of yielding an abundant crop. "Well, I suppose we shall hear nothing from now on till the end of harvest, but our farmer friends complaining because the wheat straw is one thirty-sixth of an inch shorter than usual this year."
"Yes," replied the passenger, whose salary, like that of the conductor, did not depend in any direct way upon frosts, droughts and floods, "farmers aer the most complaining class in the world. If it is not one thing it is another. The facts of the case are there is no place on earth where it is as easy to make a living as on a farm."
Thus it appears to those who know nothing of the trials, the disappointments and the failures of the farmer, and of the western farmer in particular.
It will be the object of this paper to prove that farming, taking all things into consideration, requires as much and probably more patience on the part of him who follows it, than any other known vocation.
The question will early rise in the minds of those who do not happen to agree with me in regard to the unhappy lot of the farmer, that if farming is such a capricious occupation, why is it that such a large per cent of the globe to day is and always has been engaged in such an unprofitable business? This. I think, is the answer to the question. There is inherent in every one of us the desire to make money. Farming, before proved by personal experience to be quite the opposite, seems to present an unusually fine opportunity for the gratification of this desire. At a safe distance the occupation has a thousand allurements. How easily, thinks the city business man, contemplating the purchase of a farm, who heretofore with the aid of a hot bed and afterwards the hose has succeeded in growing one mess of peas, how easily I shall now make a living. What a delight to watch the growing crops. What a luxury to have all the crisp vegetables, all the fresh butter, eggs and milk one wants. And then next year I shall have saved enough to buy another farm—an other farm, this as the ambition which exercises complete control over the ordinary farmer and for the realization of which he works to death himself, his horses and his wife.
It is under the spell of such delusions that a man, before he scarcely realizes what he is doing, finds himself the owner of a farm, with everything except himself and his family, mortgaged for the remainder of the debt.
But the idyllic life, of which the deduced purchaser, has dreams of enjoyment. I fear will be found only in some Utopian scheme, or possibly in the preface to Cato's or Horace Greeley's "Manual on Farming." There is considerable of the veriest reality in the life of the farmer who toils from four o'clock in the morning until ten o'clock at night; who sells all the produce of the farm except enough potatoes, flour and bacon to hold soul and body together; who wears the coarsest of clothes; who never reads a newspaper; whose horses and whose family are too tired to get away, even on Sunday, from the scene of their continual drudgery.
That we may better understand the trials and vicissitudes a farmer has to pass through, let us briefly follow him as he plants and raises one year's crop. The proud possessor of one hundred and sixty acres of soil that can hold the most water in wet weather, and stand the least drought in dry weather, hopefully prepares his oats ground for sowing. At last the seed is carefully harrowed in. The wind begins to blow from the south west, and continues to blow, tornado-like, for three days, until the farmer grows alarmed lest the oats and the soil in which they are planted be completely blown away- Suddenly the wind subsides. It begins to rain, not to continue for forty days and nights, but for one-fourth that length of time at least, until the recently sown oats field presents a washed and drenched appearance. Then the sky clears; the sun comes out. But that night a cold wind blows out of the north and freezes up for a week to come all the poetic little books we read about, while the farmer silently but not complainingly walks out to his oats field, scratches about in the soil and finds the germs of the seeds killed on ac
count of frosts and wet weather.
But the typical farmer never allows himself to be discouraged by trifles. He merely buys more seed, sows more oats, and begins ploughing for corn. After the ground has been ploughed, harrowed and rained upon long enough to make it unfit for planting as it was before the sod was ever turned, a half dozen clay sunbeams which find their way to the earth during the last week in May encourage the farmer to put on his overcourt and begin corn planting. With the assistance of a twelve-year-old boy, who, by the way, is expected to do a man's work, the farmer succeeds in getting his corn laid by, by the Fourth of July. On the day of the celebration the boy is given twenty-five cents and told to go to town and get all the fire-crackers, ice cream and red lemonade he wants, but not to spend any of his money foolishly. The farmer himself, who probably has not taken time to think of the occasion even, or of the celebration, stays at home and fixes fence.
Close upon the cultivation of the corn comes the harvesting of the oats and wheat, when the farmer has to hustle in order to get both properly taken care of. In spite of heavy dews and rains the last sheaf of wheat is finally in the shock, the last stock of oats topped out, and the farmer says to himself "let it rain."
But the weather is one thing that cannot be depended upon doing what it is expected todo and should do. It no longer rains, because there is no harvesting to interrupt. The hot, dry winds of August begin to blow. The fresh, healthy green color of the growing corn disappears. Every day the broad bats curl up and grow flabby. At night instead of the rippling music that comes from the gently rustling corn-field to lull the tired farmer to rest, there comes the harsher grating of parched corn blades, and with it the thought that only a few days longer can vegetation withstand such a terrible drought. But in sight of the destruction that is hourly going on about him the farmer accepts his fate, for fate it is, calmly.
When the time comes for selling his produce it is as might be expected. The market price of that which he has is low, and of that which he has not is high. And what has he left after he has disposed of his all? What has he to show for his hard work, his privations and his sacrifices? Little more than the satisfaction of having done one's best, and the remarkable determination to try farming another year.
In the meantime let us see what pleasures, aside from hard work, the farmer and his family have received. They have had ample opportunity to commune with Nature, but people whose minds must be so preoccupied with the thoughts of obtaining the bare necessities of life are little inclined to commune with Nature. That which has probably given the overworked wife the most pleasure is a new calico dress for herself and a pink sunbonnet for her baby. The younger children have had the advantages of a whole term of school, while the older ones have gone on bad days when there was nothing else for them to do.
But let us add no further details to a picture too sad to look upon. We have already explained how it happens that a man ever goes into the farming business, but it now remains to account for the fact that he follows for a second yeara business where so much depends upon circumstance for which he is not responsible, and conclude from the fact that he does follow such a business for the second year, that the farmer is the most patient creature on earth.
It was observed that when the farmer had disposed of his hard worked-for produce he had on hand as capital for the next year the satisfaction of knowing that failure was due to no management of his, and the unaccountable determination to try the experiment another year. Indeed these are the two forces which keep the farmer on his farm. The merchant if he fail, can in most cases look back and see where failure was due to some misjudgment on his part. The farmer, on the other hand, cannot blame himself, any other man, or even a bad political administration directly, for not having grown a fielddf corn that would average seventy-dive bushels to the acre. The only thing in the world he could blame would be the weather, and a farmer was never heard to give expression to such feeling.
That spirit of determination—the other binding force—we admit is in most cases a man's false exterior. It is something he assumes with which to deceive his friends and console himself. If we analyze this feeling of determination we find it to be the result of the following peculiar circumstan-
stances, for there never was a man yet who would farm for two consecutive years if he could. anything else that would better his condition. When he bought the farm, he paid down at least five hundred dollars, and if he quits the business at the end of the first year he simply loses that amount. But even if the five hundred dollars seemed of little importance to him, what else could he do? He has no education, no trade, nothing that could earn a living for him among a thousand competitors in the city. So he stays where he is and pretends to enjoy farming, never for one moment confessing to anyone but himself that there is anything else he would rather be doing.
Can there be any other spirit than that of patience or resignation which underlies all this? Is there any other profession excepting gambling where so much seems to depend upon chance? The frequenter of the Board of Trade building grows prematurely old, and is forced to retire from business at the end of three years so severe is the strain upon him. But the farmer who is just as much the plaything of chance wearily plods along year after year, never complaining, but living upon the hope that maybe next year crops will be better.
For a number of weeks the Senior Class Day committee has been hard at work on a class day entertainment which they fondly hope will prove as interesting as any entertainments of the kind that have been given by former University graduating classes. They think that it will equal in excellence even the totem pole, and will be especially appreciated by fellow students. We are forbidden at present to give any more definite information, but were told to say something in a vague sort of a way so as to excite curiosity without really telling anything.
C. S. B.
Senior Class Day.
Later-The class day entertainment will be a play written by the seniors. The play is a representation of university life and there are numerous personal references that will surely be appreciated by the students.

The Kansas City Athletic Association is to have a down-town club house with a physical instructor. Look out for a foot-ball team there next year.
The High School Field Day Contest which was held last Saturday was well attended and was a great success, although there was but one outside school represented. Six or eight high schools had entered, but were deterred from coming by the weather. The names of the winners are as follows:
100 vd. dash, Speak, of Kansas City:

The State High School Meet hereafter will be one of the big events of the year at Lawrence, and its success is assured. After the contest the "State Athletic Association of the High Schools of Kansas" was organized by the adopting of a constitution and bv-laws. W. C. Speak, of Kansas City, Kan., was elected president for next year. The office of treasurer goes to Topeka, and the secretary and executive committee to the Lawrence High School. Success to the new association!
The foot-ball committee has decided to offer prizes, as announced in the STUDENT'S JOURNAL. The first prize for kicking the foot-ball will be $25, and the second $15. Leave an order with Mr. Moody for a foot-ball.
The local field contest will be held Wednesday, the 16th, at McCook field. There should be a number of entrances for every event. If we are to do anything in the State Contest, the local contest should be made a success. More sprinters are needed, and a better showing should be made in everything than was made last year.
THE SENIOR-FACULTY GAMP
The long-expected Senior-Faculty game is now a thing of the past. The seniors laid aside their position as managers-at-large of the University, and went out to swipe the Faculty, but ran into an irresible umple, who was hard to beat. Last year's class fell before the Faculty to the time of 21 to 24, and the seniors expected to win this time by superior work. Both teams had practiced hard and faithfully and the sockless juniors witnessed the best senior-faculty game ever played. The result was surprising to everyone and especially to the Faculty. Canfield turned up with his usual incandescent curves and Cowan did fine work behind the bat. The infield was stronger than usual, while Newson, Jones and McClung gave an exhibition of base ball in the field that is rarely seen.
For the seniors, Topping and Howell made a splendid battery. Platt put up a splendid game at first, Harvey distinguished himself at second and Rothrock and Hogg held down short-stop and third base. Corbin, and Buchan made extinguishing records as star fielders. The first inning was disastrous. The seniors drew a blank and the Faculty pounded out three runs.
The fun was fast and furious from this time on, the score being very close until the first of the seventh inning. At this point the seniors began to guy the Profs and very nearly won the game by bluff work. The pitcher got rattled and presented several men with the bases on balls. Terrific battling enabled the seniors to tie the score, and the excitement was intense. Some of the juniors haven't recovered yet. The Faculty went to the bat and two men were put out in quick succession. Then Adams reached first on balls, and Canfield succeeded in bringing him in on an error by Topping, thus winning the game for the Faculty.
Score----10 to 9
NOTES.
Harvey fanned out twice; so did McClung.
Six of last year's Faculty team played this year, four of them in their old positions.
Cowan set a frightful example to freshman and other irresponsible parties by stealing bases in rush. An unwarranted fashion.
What's the matter with Cowan?
The seniors can never win unless Jones stairs wearing this tennis can.
The seniors have the best class team in school, and it is the best that haveret me the Faculty.
Howell made a home run, the only one of the game.
The seniors would have won if nine innings had been played.
Prof. Daines is the manager of the Faculty team. He is a member of the new "Kappa Alpha Theta" fraternity, For further information see Bowker.
Baker plays the Indians Saturday at Haskell Institute.

The Bakerites have not recovered yet from the great mistake they made last fall in not playing K. U, a return game. The Baker Faculty has written to the secretary of the University Faculty, asking that some action be taken in regard to last year's foot-ball difficulties. They think they are entitled to half of the gate receipts of the K. U.-Baker game. It would be difficult to imagine what reasons they can give for this.
Considerable difficulty has been experienced lately in holding a meeting of the Athletic Board. Several unsuccessful attempts have been made lately, the president, secretary and treasurer being the only members present usually. Nine members are necessary for a legal quorum. Persons who have not interest enough to attend at least one meeting a month should not be elected to fill such responsible positions.
BASE BALL: K, U,-STATE NORMAL.
The base ball game between K. U. and the State Normal which was played yesterday afternoon at Emporia, resulted in K. U. winning in the close score of 13 to 7. The game was very interesting and was close from beginning to finish.
In the game played Wednesday with Emporia College, the Emporia team played under a great disadvantage, for they had their left fielder in the pitcher's box.
The Creighton Dramatic Co. will produce "Sweet Lavender" at the Opera House May 18th for the benefit of the Athletic Association. This is a first class play and is the last good show of the season. The Athletic Board is to be congratulated for having secured this exellent company. Let every student show his interest in athletics by attending this entertainment.
"Sweet Lavender" is the name of the drama which will be given for the benefit of the Athletic Association next Friday night at Bowersock's opera house. This is a good chance for the students to show their interest in Athletics and at the same time get the benefit of an excellent entertainment.
Don't tilt to see "Sweet Lavender" next Friday evening at the Cpera House. Tickets are now on sale at the University; prices, 75, 50 and 25 cents.

Chinch Bug Notes.
Many calls are being received from Missouri for infected chinch bugs.
A gentleman from Shawnee county was at the University this week to get instructions about the use of chinch bug infection for use on his farm.
Chinch bugs are very numerous this year and will doubtless do considerable damage. Our department is at present sending out fifty boxes of infected bugs per day.
Mr. Frank A. Lutz, who has been studying the chinch bug infection process in connection with his other University work, leaves this week for Lincoin county, where he will maintain a chinch bug station in connection with a store of which he is the proprietor.
The Universities of Illinois and Nebraska have sent for chinch bug infection with the view of establishing chinch bug stations at their respective Universities similar to the one here.
Mr. John G. Hall, a member of the present junior class, left last Monday for Bourbon county, where he will have charge of a chinch bug infection station.

As a result of the Cornell affair, Gov. Flower has signed a bill passed by the New York Legislature, making hazing a crime punishable by a fine of not less than thirty or more than one hundred dollars, and imprisonment for not less than thirty days nor more than one year. A similar bill was passed in Ohio making the punishment for hazing a fine of from $100 to $300 and imprisonment from six months to two years.
The M. S. U. Independent seems to be doing well. It has twice increased its size and now its fifth number has eight pages. It makes a better showing than the Tiger which is thirteen weeks old. The latter, however, is a weekly, while the Independent is published only once in two weeks.

The University Chronicle, of Utah University, certainly deserves admiration for its neat appearance and the amount of good thought in its pages.

MEMORIES OF FORMER LIFE.
"I have a number of friends who have shadowy recollections of a previous existence upon this earth," said a theosophist to the Pittsburgh Dispatch, supporting the doctrine of reincarnation. "You doubtless have also had experiences an when indefinite, vague remembrance of something or somebody which puzzled you and made you say, 'I'm sure I've seen that before.' Yet you may know pretty positively that, as far as this present existence is concerned, it was impossible for you to have received even an idea of the place or person. I have often met people with whom I became intimate at first sight. It seems, as I have often told them, that I had known them for years. It was only the other evening I met a lady from San Francisco whose face had been in my mind for years. As soon as we met there seemed to be something that drew us together. We were old and old friends. The most remarkable instance I ever heard is that of the daughter of Isaac Fulton Twelve years ago he resided in Effingham county, ill. While there he buried a daughter named Maria. She was taken away just as she was budding into womanhood. About a year later he removed to Dakota, where he still resides. About three years after his daughter's death he was blessed with another little girl, who christened Nelle. it being the favorite one became quite angry when told her name was Nelle. She said the name belonged to her, as her parents used to call her Maria. A matter of business took Mr. Fulton back to Effingham county and for company he took Nellie along. The father was surprised at the intuitive knowledge the girl had of the place. She not only recognized the old home, but many people she had never seen, whom the first daughter had been acquainted with. About a mile from the home was a school house where Maria had gone to school. Little Nella had never seen the place, yet she gave an accurate description of it to her father and expressed a strong desire to visit it. Accordingly her father took her out to the school house. As soon as she was inside she marched straight up to the desk her sister had occupied and said, 'This is mine.' In telling the story Mr. Fulton said that it seemed as if the dead had come back from the grave; but her mother would not have it so. She says, if that is true she had but one child, and God gave her two.
The world has never quits understood how the Rothschilds got an "exclusive" on the result of the battle of Waterloo, and were thus able to bank on it ten hours before any other human being in London found it out. When Napoleon escaped from Elba the Rothschilds also managed to score an "exclusive", which they used most profitably on the stock exchange hours before even the government ordered had the slightest liking of the weighty news. And now again history repeats itself with this family, for in spite of all the newpa or enterprise in London, the Rothschilds got the first dispatch from Ito Janeiro announcing Admiral Benham's interference, and after they had extracted all the financial value out of it they gave it to the London papers. The famous Rothschilds family have founded all their wealth to "exclusives," always managing to be up a little earlier in the morning than the rest of the world upon occasions where fortunes are at stake. It is an historic instance of wonderful enterprise, united with even more wonderful luck.

There is trouble in the Oratorical Association of State University of Nebraska. Mr. McMullen, the winner in the state contest, has been accused of plagiarism. The association refused to give him money for his expenses to Indianapolis. He applied to his father for aid and the letter enclosing a draft was opened and the draft forged.

Miss Geneve Lichtenwalter, a graduate of the School of Music, who took part in the State Musical Jubilee at Hutchinson last week, received second place in the piano solo contest. Prof. Archer, of Chicago, the director of the contests, in awarding Miss Lichtenwalter second place, complimented her highly on the musical ability which she had shown in the rendition of her selection, and said that she would have been awarded first place had it not been that she unfortunately left out part of her selection, due to the fact that she played without notes. This compliment from such a prominent musician as Prof. Archer is a well merited one, both to Miss Lichtenwalter and the School of Music.

Baker has decided to send representatives to the State Field Contest on the 30th of this month. Cooper Memorial will send men again this year and a fine contest may be expected.
The secretary of the Athletic Association has received several letters from the Chicago Athletic Association in regard to the Athletic Meet to be held in Chicago June 2nd. At a meeting of the Board of Directors on Thursday, it was decided that Mr. Shellenbarger should be sent to represent K. U. He will probably enter several events.
The time made in the hurdle race was especially good.
The winners of the several events in the High School Field Contest will receive silver medals from the Athletic Association.
Shellenbarger and Steinberger carried off three-fourths of the honors.
Last Saturday's Picnics.
Last Saturday was quite a day for picnics; at least, so we should judge by the number that were held.
One picnic party gathered at the residence of Dr. May, on New Hampshire street, at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. They took boats for Cady's Grove, taking their lunch with them. This party consisted of Misses Stanford, Cochran, Hoge, Minnie and Bettie Bayne, hosier, Miller, Douthart and Henry; and Messrs. May, Scheffer, Schroeder, Hickman, Olinger, Simpson, Blackman, Cunningham and Brown. The boat ride down the river by moonlight was very enjoyable.
Another picnic party gathered on the opposite shore of the river, on Cameron's Bluff, and between the two parties the air was filled with college and class yells.
Field Day Notes.
The performances of Ormor Shellenbarger and Suterweister at the beginning of the boxing and wrestling which took place at the rink Wednesday evening was a novelty in the way of field day exercises in the University
Willie Ogg was by all odds the most scientific of all the participants in the boxing contests. He easily won over Evats.
With some training, Rothrock would make a very good wrestler, but as it is, its lack of science is very evident.
Shira's strong point is in keeping his opponent in an expectant attitude until he becomes impatient and looses command of himself.
McMurray and Atterbury were the most evenly matened of all the boxers and wrestlers.
The Baker Beacon comes out in a half dazed sort of way this week with the statement in her editorial column that the editor searched through, "as it seemed to him in a careful way" nearly all the daily papers and yet has not been able to find a report of the out come of the Inter-state Oratorical Contest. Surely the editor is behind about two days in his search. To our actual knowledge the St. Louis Daily Republican of last Friday morning contained an account of the Contest, and doubtless a number of other papers of the same date contained a similar report

This paper is on file at the editorial rooms of the University Review, 250 Flifth avenue. New York, where all college men are given a hearty welcome.
Our physical culture class which has of late been attracting considerable attention will have to look well to its laurels. The young ladies of Ottawa University have been playing some good games of base-ball. Would not a challenge be in order, girls?
A PLAY is to be given to-night under the anspices of the Athletic Association. The Adelphian Quartette Concert for the benefit of the Assocsation was not a financial success. Our reputation for University "enthusiasm" is injured, and should be redeemed.
THERE is no doubt that these ornate historical contests do not develop true oratory, and that they have degenerated into a struggle between men whose sole incentive in many cases is the desire to win first place, and who are willing to resort to dishonest means to accomplish their purpose. There is need of reform.
THERE is need of a young ladies' dormitory on Mount Oread, the reasons for this being so apparent that it is not necessary to enumerate them. We see no reason why there should not be one, for if it is not built by the State it can be erected by private enterprise. A ladies' boarding hall on Mount Oread would surely be a paying investment.
UNDER the influence of democratic teachings and democratic spirit it is supposed that the citizens of this great American Republic are developing a fine sense of self-respect, but events show that the regeneration of the race is not as yet fully accomplished. During the entertainments given recently under the auspices of the School of Fine Arts, the street on which the building stands was filled with people who came to listen to the concert given within. To be a recipient of charity at any time greatly lessens one's self-respect, how much the more must this be true in the present case, where the charity is forced from unwilling givers. We hope that among those open air audiences there were nostudents.
THE project of having one of the approaches to the University graded and paved is undergoing some discussion. The Lawrence Journal of Monday evening contained a communication from a writer who favored the adoption of some plan for the accomplishment of this object, and a few nights before the Chancellor had made the same suggestion at a meeting of the Commercial Club. At this meeting the Chancellor's suggestion was very well received, and a number of the men who have great influence in the management of the city affairs declared that the city should make this improvement for the University and could do so. The project is an old one that is usually revived when the Commencement season is approaching. In the past it has never gone beyond the present stage—that of discussion—but with so many of the leading business men of the city heartily in favor of the work there seems to be hope of its accomplishment. We are happy to announce that there is some prospect that in the not very distant future one of the roads leading to the University may be made passable.
THEY have advanced ideas on the subject of college "enthusiasm" in Minnesota. McKinley recently visited Hammine University, where he was greeted by the students with the college yell. The occurrence causes Ignatius Donnelly to make the following remarks in the Representative,
"It is cheering to think that when this generation passes off the stage of action it will be succeeded by an enlightened body of educated citizens, so trained in our colleges and universities that they can give utterance to such beautiful and in-eligible sentiments as the following:
Walla, walla, woo,
Walla, walla, woo,
Hooo, Hoo-up,
Hamline U.
We like this very much, but permit us to suggest a variation and slight improvement:
Hoop do foodie-do!
When the fool-killer's through With his enlightened brew.
There will be very few
Left — Boohoo — hoohoo
Hamline U.
We bet a six-pence that there are not ten boys in that walla, walla woo crowd that know that silver is demonetized, or what effect is demonetization has had on mankind. The "higher education" consists in training up a lot of young men to shout "Walla, walla, woa." play base ball, wear good shoes and carry bags, be inscribed on their shoulders, and vote the old party tickets. The salvation of the country depends upon the common schools, and the boys are more familiar with "Gee-haw-who-buck," than they are with "Walla-walla-woo."
AT the meeting of the STUDENTS JOURNAL Company on Tuesday the following staff was elected to take charge of the paper in the Fall term: Editor-in-Chief, R. W. Cone; Local Editor, E. E. Waltmirre; Business Managers, J. A. Simpson and A. G. Clarke; Secretary, Miss Effie Loader, and treasurer J. W. Cheadle. The staff is a good one, and we believe its efficiency will be greatly increased by the addition which was made to its members of a Managing Editor who in addition to his own work, also assumes the duties of Associate Literary Editor. The managing Editor has a gen.良 supervision of the paper and edits all the matter that is submitted for publication. The creation of this office will make possible a much better distribution of work among the different members of the staff, and will thus have a direct effect in improving the quality of the work done on the paper. In addition to the amendments to the constitution made necessary by the creation of the office of Managing Editor, an amendment was passed providing that the life of a STUDENTS JOURNAL share should be two years whether the holder of the share attends the University during the whole time or not, and that all share-holders should receive the paper free for two years whether they are in the University or not.
Baker University desires to open negotiations with the Faculty of this University to have the playing of games between the two schools resumed. All the negotiation that is necessary, as far as we can see, is for the Baker teams to challenge our own We have no doubt that challenges will be accepted.
THE Interstate Oratorical Contest in some respects resembled our State Contest. Against one of the contestants the charges were made that he had asked one man to write an oration for him, and that in writing his oration, he was known to have received aid from two lawyers in whose office he was working. As far as we can learn from newspaper accounts no denial was made of the latter charge. We should think that such acts were as reprehensible as plagiarism, but the contestant charged with them was allowed to take part in the contest. Most of the orations were on subjects such as faith, civilization, society—subjects which could have been about just as well two or three centuries ago as today, and in fact one of the orations delivered at the contest had been in existence for a considerable number of years, the orator having taken part in a number of contests, and each time used the same oration, after having worked it over and re-written it. Such an oration we should call the characteristic college contest oration of the present day. College orators do not seem to know, or at least do not profit by their knowledge that the men who are considered to have great orators took some simple proposition or declaration about a subject, the more important and interesting the subject at the time the better, and devoted their whole attention to the proof and enforcement of that proposition. The language used was simple and direct. The average college oration, on the other hand, is a rambling, purposeless discourse into which the writer has introduced as many brilliant and startling phrases as he could find without taking much thought as to whether they were connected with the subject which the oration pretended to treat. In fact the "oration" seems to be simply intended as a kind of network to join these isolated gems of thought together.
The Study of Kansas History at the Uni. ority
A few rods southeast of the University Main Building there are still to be seen in perfect preservation, earthworks thrown up to protect Lawrence from invasion during the Wakarusa War. Lecompont, the early capital of Kansas, is but fifteen miles from this city. In fact, in or near Lawrence are most of the places that were the scenes of the principal events of early Kansas history; and Lawrence was so prominent in the early days of Kansas that to know the history of Lawrence is to know the history of Kanaas. Students, as well as all the other young people of the State and perhaps some of the older people have a vague idea that Kanaas has had an eventful and an inspiring history, but it may be safely asserted that they have simply this vague idea for definite information is almost entirely wanting. It seems to us that a university like our own, an institution supported by the state, should allow no student to go out from its walls before it has given him ample opportunity to become familiar with the early history of the state; and all the more does it seem appropriate in the case of this institution that instruction should be given, since there is no place where the history of Kanaas can be so well studied at Lawrence, because of the much greater interest that may be aroused by seeing many of the places where the events studied actually occurred Moreover, a number of the most prominent men of those early times, who still survive, live in Lawrence, and could add greatly to the interest of the study by accounts of personal experiences. The five o'clock lecture courses which were tried as an experiment this year have proved very successful. Next year, cannot the general student body, in some such way as this, be given an opportunity of learning of early Kansas history? The students, after leaving the University, will probably never have an opportunity to study Kansas history; at any rate, those who do not live in or near Lawrence will surely never have so good an opportunity, for here, while studying the events, they can at the same time see the places where the events occurred, and some of the men who took a prominent part in their
versity.
Our botanists are anxious to know how plants would grow if they received equal amounts of light on all sides and were affected by gravitation no more in one direction than another. To determine this an experiment has been arranged which completely eliminates the inequalities of both. A vessel containing growing plants is slowly rotated on both a horizontal and a vertical axis. The plants are by this means left free to grow according to their own inherent tendencies. Violets and other flowers of irregular shape are to be experimented with first. It is believed that under these conditions they will grow perfectly regular.
Chancellor Snow is working a short time each day in the entomology laboratory, preparing beetles for exchange. He is getting many specimens in return, among the most valuable of which is a collection of California insects.

Prof. Dama, of Yale, has sent for the plate of Dr. Williston's restoration of elidastes vexto to publish in the new edition of his book on Geology.
The skeleton of the fossil peccary from western Kansas is now mounted and on exhibition in the museum. Five hundred photographs of it have already been made. A cut of it will appear in the next University Quarterly.
A jaw bone of a young deer was lately sent to Prof. Dyche to be identified. It had been twice sent through the mail as a registered parcel. We wonder that western people did not recognize the bone of so common an animal.
In a cave in Colorado both bats and cocoons of large moth were found. The parties finding them could not agree as to whether or not the bats came out of the cocoons. After making a bet, they submitted the question so Prof. Dyche for decision.

Late Hours Injure the Health
Late Hours injure the Health
"Early to bed and early to rise.
Makes men healthy, wealthy and wise," says "Poor Richard," and "Poor Richard" was of an observing turn of mind, and very apt to be correct in his judgements. The world over, it is the people who take plenty of sleep that are her by, and if they are sensible enough to get up early, they will have their strength to acquire wisdom and wealth as well. The old woman who asked her folks were always affin,' and no good way, for they would set up everlastingly and lay abed eternally, was probably an acquaintance of Poor Richard," and had given him some points.
A university town, especially if it be gay as well as studious, is as good field for observation of the effect of late hours. Last evening I was introduced to a little woman, seemingly about thirty, with a face which gave hints of past prettiness, but the cheeks were hollow, there were ugly wrinkles about the dark eyes, and the skin was red and rough. She chatted gaily for a little while, with a kittenish playfulness which contrasted strangely with her worn appearance. As she passed on, my neighbor said: “It’s a shame the way that girl has ruined her health. A few years ago she was called the prettiest girl in town, but such a round of parties as she's attended up till two or three o'clock in the morning, night after night—is enough to break down anybody.”
But the devotee of fashion is not the only one who suffers from keeping late hours. The broken down student! We all know him. In truth he is so common, that the typical student is thought of as an individual who has gained a pair of round shoulders, a pair of bleared eyes, and mercy knows what internal disarrangements by sitting bending over his books by lamplight, when the end of his nose and the tips of his toes should have been turned up to the ceiling.
Students and writers, who are apt to keep late hours, are notorious for poor health and short lives but in any walk of life the evil effect of an insufficient amount of sleep at the proper time may be observed. The sewing-girl sitting up till morning to earn the miserable pittance which keeps soul and body together, the son of her employer, gaming and drinking during the same time, alike exemplify it. The city doctor who is called to the bedside of the one, and the criminal lawyer whose services are required by the other, both will testify to it. The physician will tell you he can not do justice to his work unless he can make up in the daytime the sleep he loses at night. The lawyer knows that long nights of study over a difficult case very often bring on an attack of nervous prostration.
When we reflect that there is no such thing as a complete recovery from an injury done the health, that the effects remain even after the cause has been removed, it would seem that our forefathers were wise in ringing the Curtew as nine o'clock and seeing to it that the community had at least the opportunity to recruit its strength by plenty of sleep. R. M.
A Prairie Shadow.
The prairies were fresh and green, and seemed to send up mute thanksgiving to the Great Spirit who had given them life and happiness. The wild flowers were bright and fragrant and lived as in a paradise of their own—one uncontaminated by the profane presence of mankind. Yet up on the ridge of the long "divide" there stood a cabin. It was small and roughly built, and the bright newness of its pineboard walls formed an unpleasant contrast with the soft green of the prairie.
The sun was nearing the west, and slowly went down until its brilliant rays were seen only as reflected from the piled-up masses of clouds, which stood guard over its slow retreat to another world.
In the door of the cabin sat a strong man, his face burned by the sun, yet full of hope and courage—his body weared from labor, yet strong in its weariness.
He sat there looking out through the rapidly darkening twilight, across the rolling land, even to the dim outline of the southern horizon.
A gentle voice sounded behind him, and a slender girlish figure slipped out of the door and sat down by his side. She was cheerful and happy; and as, he threw his strong right arm about her and drew her to him, she brushed the hair back from his sun-burned forehead, and looked up into his eyes trustfully and confidently; and was proud of the man she loved, though there were none but herself to look upon him.
They sat there until long after the darkness had settled down around them, happy in each other and hopeful for the future. What cared they if they were alone on the prairies, far far away from all that had once been dear out there? They would work out a new home from this prairie wilderness. They would be strong and trustful. They would force from the reluctant soil a harvest and plenty. And when they offered up their prayers that night there was naught of complaint in them—only a peaceful thanksgiving for the blessedness of existence, and a petition for those far away. * * * * *
The scene has changed and yet it is the same. Here are the same rolling prairies. There is the same long ridge and here the same simple cabin. But the prairies are no longer bright and green. The anemone and the spring beauty no longer raise their sweet blossoms to the now burning rays of the sun.
God seems to have withdrawn his blessing from the land and to have cast upon it his heaviest curse. The land is dry and aphist, and the very air seems to tremble with the burning heat.
The cabin is no longer new and bright. The color of its four walls no longer forms a contrast with the paitri, but, like the green of the prairie, has surrendered to the desert heat, and has become dead and burned like all else. The door is open to receive the gentle southern breeze, which alone has not changed. The figure of a man—he who sat in the door-way once—lies stretched on a rough bed. His face is not burned now, save by the heat of a raging fever. His eye is bright no longer; and now his body has no strength in its weakness. Yet his right arm is around the same form now that it encircled once before. She is sitting on the bedside, fanning his flushed face and again she pushes the hair back from his forehead. She is worn and weary with watching and waiting for that change that never comes; yet there is not one falter in the trust and love she bears him.
He opens his eyes from a titted sleep and tells her not to sit there; but to lie down and rest. She must not sicken herself from watching, for he will need her as soon as he gets strong again; and he tries to smile in his own conceit. She smiles with him; but it is only fletching; and, as he closes his eyes again she asks her God to spare her the one she loves, and to grant her strength to guard him.
Days go by, and she still sits by the bed-side and waits for the change to come. At last it comes. She awakens one day from a light troubled sleep and she sees the change. The paile face is peaceful as if in sleep; the wan hand lies on the coverlet, and the eyes are still closed. The change has come. The strong man has stepped over the narrow boundary; and there in the dim shadow of the great unknown he is waiting for her.
She has seen the change; and when a wandering horseman comes to the door the next day, he sees them both. She, too, has crossed the boundary line and has joined him there. M.D.

The Board of Directors of the Athletic Association held a meeting last Friday, Newson, Garrett and May were present. Every member of the Board was personally requested to be present. This is the third time this has occurred within the last two weeks Down at Florence, Kansas, last Friday there was a game of ball between the fats and the leans. M. E. Hickey, caught for the fats, who won the game by a score of 13 to 4. Good for Hickey.
The Annapolis Navy Academy Athletics meet was held on the twelfth. A fifty yard swimming race was on the list of events. No phenomenal records were made.
So far as the investigation conducted by Mr. Walter Camp into the popular standing of foot ball as a college sport has progressed, the friends of that athletic game have nothing to fear. Out of L100 answers to Mr. Camp's queries it has been impossible to find one which condenss the game without finding some corresponding, and usually over-balancing, advantage in it. These answers comprise a wide range of sentiment, from college presidents to freshmen. They include a great many suggestions toward making the game more popular and less rough, and by studying the best of these it will be possible to still further enthrone foot ball as the ideal college sport.
The Kansas City Athletic Club inhaled in a field meet last week.
Yale won the most points in last week's athletic meet at New Haven, between Yale and Harvard. The contest was close and interesting. The 220 yard hurdle race was won by Bremer, 35, of Harvard; time 24 3-5, breaking the world's record by one-fifth of a second. Hickock, '95, of Yale, won the 16 pound hammer throw, distance 113 feet, 11 inches. This is the best hammer throw in inter-collegiate records.
baker defeated Ottawa last Monday by a score of 10 to 3.
THE BALL GAME LAST SATURDAY.
The M. S. U. Athletic Contest comes off on June 5th and includes among other things, a running high kick, kicking foot ball, hop-skip-and-jump and a bicycle race of three miles.
The game was called at 3:30 and turned out to be a lively affair.
THE BALL GAME LAST SATURDAY.
A good sized crowd saw a well-played ball game at McCook field last Saturday between K. U. and the College of Emporia. The Emporia team, although badly defeated in the previous games, was not discouraged, and gathered up all the professionals available with the intention of beating the University.
In the first inning the C. of E. nearly succeeded in scoring, Blackshire being put out at home base K. U. started poorly, Chamberlain, Smith and Hogeboom fanning out in the first inning.
The second inning was short, both sides being retired without scoring. In the third inning no one reached second base, and the spectators began to show some interest in the game.
The fun began in the fourth, Alden making a two-bagger and Steinberger a three-bagger, both scoring. Hogeboom struck out.
The C. of E. drew a blank in the fifth inning and Mitchell scored for K. U.
The score was nearly tied in the sixth when two men reached first on balls and Evans and Gabriel scored a run on errors. Steinberger was put out on home base and retired K. U. Score 3 to 2. K. U. scored one in the seventh, and four on the eighth, winning the game.
Score by innings:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Col. of Emporia—0 0 0 0 0 2 1 0 0-3
K. U. —0 0 0 2 1 0 1 4 0-8

The base balt team left last evening for Minneapolis, Kan., where they play the town ball team to-day and to-morrow.
A Barb-Frat ball team will be played Wednesday, May 23rd, at 3 o'clock. The non-fraternal team will probably be: Wagner, pitcher; Hogeboom, catcher; Parker, 1st base; Harvey, 2nd base; Hogeboom, 3rd base; Williamson, shortstop; Steinberger, etc., fielders.
The Requirements in Freshman Botany.
The class will be required to hand in fifty mounted plants. These should include the plants studied in the lecture room and laboratory. Of this fifty, ten should be cryptogams, illustrating the lectures given to the class. The faciece, must contain first, the lecture notes illustrated with drawings; second, the drawings and notes made in the laboratory and third, the mounted specimens.
Shanes photos are the best.
The Requirements in Freshman Botany
The Senior Class Play.
The Play written by the Senior Class of the University will be given Wednesday evening May 30, at the Opera House. It is a comedy on University affairs, and will surely be interesting to all University students. The Seniors will have entire charge of the play themselves, having chosen one of their own number, Lorin B. Sears as stage manager. This is an entirely new departure from the usual insane and savage-like performances which take place class day, and should be encouraged and aided.
Athletic.
What's the matter with the Law-
rance Daily Journal? The Journal or
rather the red headed local fiend
seems to be awfully worried about the
way the affairs of the University Athetic Association are conducted. He never passes an opportunity to howl over some imaginary outrage perpetrated at the University. He has discovered that the boxing and wrestling costumes worn in the contests are indecent. We would suggest that he offer the Athletic Association the use of some of his full dress suits.
The Inter-state (oratorical) Contest.
The In recent Inter-state Oratorical Contest held at Indianapolis, C. F. Wishart of Mammoth College Illinois won first place by reason of his very strong and almost perfect delivery. Mr. Wishart's brother is a United Pressbyterian minister, and preached here in Lawrence at that church recently. Those who heard him will not be surprised to learn that his brother C. F. Wishart who is also studying for the ministry, should win first place. Mr. Wishart's oration was on the subject "The Policy of Richelieu."
The second place was by L. F. Dim,
mit of Do Pauwain University, on the sub-
ject "The Humane Spirit in Modern
Civilization." J. W Wetzel of Winfield
the man from Kansas, took fifth place,
his delivery not being nearly so strong
as at the State Contest in Topeka.
The University Quarterly.
The next number of the University Quarterly will contain an article on "Mound Builders Discovered in Wyandotte County Kansas," by Barmum Brown. During the spring vacation Messrs Brown and Williamson opened four mounds near Edwardsville. These mounds were situated on an eminence in a row running east and west, and were about eighty feet apart. The mounds contained from one to two or three skeletons each, together with stone scrapers, arrow heads, and charcoal. In one was found a stone containing peculiar notches. But the most remarkable specimen was a male skull possessing marked characteristics in the way of low forehead, prominent superciliary ridges, and an enormous protruding jaw. Some pottery was found with it. The inside of the limestone cavern which contained these remains was greatly colored by fire which apparently had been used in the burial rites. The mound in which it was found was much larger than the others and contained no other skeleton. Evidently this man was a chief of his tribe.
Some weeks ago, a letter addressed to the Women's League of Kansas University was received from the Women's League of Michigan University. This letter contained a proposition that our society should join in a correspondence league and send out a circular letter each year, to the following institutions where women are educated: Vassar, Wesleyan, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Boston University, Cornell, Welshen, Northwestern, and Michigan. These letters are intended to serve as a record of the social life of those institutions and what is desired is a picture of the life the college woman lead, outside of study hours.
Important Meeting of the Women's League.
The 150 H. P. Russell engine has arrived and is being put in position. It will furnish power for the new dynamo, which is to light and heat the new buildings, and run the motor for the wells. Steam for the engine will be furnished by two new boilers which are almost ready for work.
Engineering Notes.
Answers were requested to a number of questions, and most of them have been responded to in different letters which have been received from these institutions, in a manner which is frank, friendly, and full of interest. The letters will be read on Friday afternoon May 18 at 5 o'clock in room 15 and a full attendance of the members of the Women's League and of all young women of the different departments of the University is desired.
Several of the students are making small dynamos and motors. The castings are made at the foundation and the boys do the rest of the work.
The last meeting of the electrical seminary for this year will be held Monday afternoon at four o'clock. The professors belonging to the seminary will have charge of the meeting
Base Ball News.
The Ottawa girls are enterprising. They are also athletic, three games of base ball being already recorded to their credit this spring. Dressed in base ball suits both athletic and becoming, two nines composed of college girls had a championship game upon the campus. The players were so badly embarrassed by the assembled multitude however that both teams were dismissed with the result of the match, and in order to decide the championship more decisively played another game one cool morning at 5 o'clock with no one nigh to hinder. The third game was between the college girls and the town girls and was played last Saturday afternoon before a large and voiferous audience. The game was characterized by heavy batting and no errors, and stood at the end of the fifth inning 20 to 24 in favor of the college.
From the above it might be supposed that Ottawa is ahead of K. U., but such is not the 'ease. In two games already the K. U. girls defeated teams of K. U. boys although the latter were old and experienced ball players.

By the Power of Irresistable Prices.
Because of the failure of Leland J. Powers to meet his engagement at Baker, the students seem to be much displeased with the management of the lecture bureau. K. U. has had a similar experience, and has found that the students will not support an organization of such a kind in their midst,-low be it spoken.
A. E. Moody, president of the University Y. M. C. A., visited Baldwin City Monday on Y. M. C. A. business. Tuesday morning; Mr. Moody assisted Mr. Brockman, National Secretary of the College Y. M. C. A., in conducting the chapel exercises at Baker University.
Communication.
L. C. Dobson, L. L. B., District Judge of Kansas City, Kansas, delivered a lecture to the Senior Class of the Law School Monday morning. His subject was, "The Construction of Wills."
Our prices are not LAID low by dull trade but MADE low to make trade.
A number of University students attended the reception given last Monday afternoon in honor of the noted singer, Miss Ellen Beach Yaw.
The habit which some of the University professors have grown accustomed to practicing of keeping their classes over time is to say the least very annoying and embarrassing to the students who attend their classes. The classes are supposed to be dismissed immediately after the ringing of the first bell in order to have five minutes to change classes. Instead of dismissing classes at this time, they are sometimes until five and even ten minutes after time, and when they enter the next class they are met with the angry countenance of the bothered professor. Not only is this practice unjust to the students, but it is unfair to the other instructors to consume the time which should have been occupied in their department in this manner. If the professors would be more punctual both in the beginning and the dismissing of classes, they would surely set a better example of punctuality to the students.

THE COLLEGE WORLD.
The Wesleyan Advance is advancing.
Compare these three clippings:
Our newest exchange is the Ariel, a bright and interesting paper published by the students of the University of Minnesota. The front page, however, was printed in Impressa, imprinted on the advertising were absent.-Rocky Mountain Collegian.
The cover of the Collegian is certainly artistic and appropriate, but the contents might be considerably improved.—Ariel.
We find the advertisements on the front page of the Students' Journal of Kansas University, the most interesting reading in the paper.—Ariel.
Athletics.
Although the Ariel resented the jab which the Collegian gave her, she is evidently strenue on the idea which accompanied it and forthwith she looked around for somebody to use it on. When you want to spit out your spite on somebody else, Ariel, it would look better if you would rack those massives brains of yours for something new.
The action of the Faculty in refusing to recognize any person as a bona fide student, when the object of his scheduling was known to be that he might participate in athletics, is to be most highly commended. Let us have pure athletics or none. Since college athletics exist solely for the benefit of the students it is a mistaken idea to endeavor to get outsiders to participate. It stops us from developing material from among the students and lowers the standard generally. We would recommend that no student who has not been regularly scheduled for full work for at least three terms, and whose class record during that time has not been satisfactory, be allowed to compete in any inter-collegiate contest. The eastern colleges have adopted a vigorous code of rules to govern athletics, and we can see no reason why somewhat similar rules should not be adopted here.—Vidette Reporter, U. of I.
In the fifth inning, however, the Indians began to play ball, and Buckhart, Augusta, Peters and Winchester scored for Haskell. This tied the score. Baker failed to get a man first.
The Indians and the Bakerites furnished amusement for a large crowd of spectators last Saturday at McCook field. The game, although rather rocky, was close and ended in a scrap. The umpire, Cowtes Mud, was an Indian, but his decisions were as fair as possible. The Bakerites, who could win neither by continual kicking nor by playing ball, got very tired in the ninth inning, and went home disgusted. The game was awarded to Haskell.
The Bakerites started out well and managed to keep a good lead. At the end of the third inning the game stood 7 to 2 in their favor.
Williams and Stone scored for Haskell in the eighth, and Carpenter made a run for Baker again making the score a tie, 9 to 9.
In the sixth inning Haskell drew a blank, and one Bakerite crossed the home plate. Score, Baker 8; Haskell, 7. Neither side scored in the seventh, and Baker was confident of winning.
In the ninth the Bakerites were dissatisfied with a decision made by the umpire and left the grounds. The game was promptly awarded to Haskell, 9 to 0.
The positions of the players were as follows

The Base Ball team did not cover itself with glory on its recent trip although it managed to pull one game out of the fire. On Tuesday the score was Minneapolis 18, K. U. 12, and on Saturday, Minneapolis 12, K. U. 5. Monday's game at Salina was won by a score of 25 to 15.
Get a ticket to Kansas City and go down to the game and yell for K. U. to-morrow. A little encouragement of this kind goes a long ways. This is the last game of the season and Missouri should be defeated.

This paper is on file at the editorial rooms of the University Re view. 236 Fifth avenue. New York, where all college men are given a hearty welcome.
Our baseball team has made a very creditable record this year. If we make as good a record in the State Field Contest, we may be well satisfied with the season's work.
THE profits from the Senior play are to be applied to the Senior loan fund. By attending the play you will increase the fund, and thus have a share in a worthy undertaking.
Every student should remain at the University during Commencement. He can find both entertainment and instruction in the addresses of noted speakers, and in the different class exercises. He may also want to "visit" with his fellow students before he bids them good-by. If he has worked faithfully, it is a pleasure he owes himself.
At the end of the school year, it is a good plan for a student while mistakes and failures are still vividly remembered, to stop and think how he could have got more out of his year's work. The man who does this can next year direct his efforts more intelligently, and success in any undertaking depends fully as much on rightly applying one's energies as on hard work Better plan now for next year.
At the recent ball game with Baker the national red white and blue was worn by the Indian scholars of Haskell Institute as the school colors. We take pleasure in noting this development of college "spirit" and, of course, of civilization as well. The next requisite is a college yell. From the war whoops of the various tribes represented at the school, the Indians should be able to make a yell surpassing all yet invented in hideousness. This is the quality most desired in a college yell; and they, therefore, have here a chance to outstrip their haughty pate sacred brethren.
In the last issue of the University Review is a very good suggestion with regard to the Quantrell's Raid Monument fund. It is that, instead of erecting a monument, the money be used to establish a loan fund to assist needy University students. If the money is used in this way, the young people of the state will by it have their attention constantly called to the early history of Kansas, and it will thus accomplish its object—that of perpetuating the memory of the men who fell in the Raid, as well or better than a monument would. At the same time the money will be doing invaluable service in aiding poor students to get an education.
In a few days an expedition will start out from the University the like of which, we believe, has never started out before. It will consist of the students of the Civil Engineering Department, who will camp out for about a month, and will there spend their time gaining practice in surveying. The University furnishes the tents and other camp equipments. All students entering the department hereafter will be required to take this field practice which will enable the student to become very proficient by the time he has completed the four year's engineering course. The instructors in this department are to be congratulated on the success of their efforts to increase the efficiency of its training.
LACTLY in some of our exchanges, we have noticed the announcement that the Senior Class has been given a week's vacation in which to prepare for Commencement exercises; or more recently, that the Senior Class will have to attend no more recitations, but will devote the remainder of the term to preparation for Commencement. At the
University, we believe the only provision at all similar to these is the one that a Commencement oration shall count as the last Senior forensic. Here, of course, it would be absurd to stop the work of four or five hundred students for the benefit of from one-fifth to one-tenth of that number, and it would virtually amount to that, for Seniors are to be found in all departments of the University. But is there not another reason? Is there not a feeling that it is unwise to devote so much time simply to the graduation ceremonies? The chief aim of the student now is to get an education, and not as was formerly almost literally the case in some instances, to graduate; and this, we believe, is leading to the subordination of Commencement ceremonies to the practical and important work of Universities and Colleges. Perhaps it is partly this influence also which is leading to such movements as the one in favor of employing some noted man to speak on Commencement Day in place of the students.
"Harvard University gives more to its students than any other institution of learning in our country. The large number of courses which are offered for specialized or general work, the laboratories, the library, and countless other aids to cultivation, are given to the members of this College on the payment of a painfully small sum. Our tuition fees are lower than the rates of our expenses are enormous. When benefactors are plentiful, the University does not feel the inadequacy of its income, but when the rich people are all dead, or prefer to found colleges in the West, the fact is forced home upon the authorities that the books do not balance. There must either be a rise in the price of tuition or a proportionate cutting down of expenses. The Faculty has seen fit to try the latter plan. Salaries have been reduced, and instructors dispensed with; moreover they are raised, and in many of the buildings the heating pipes are being removed from the halls in order to save expense in fuel. The University appears to be cramped on every side.
As a number of our students, upon graduation, annually go to Harvard, the Harvard Advocate's account of the proposed increase in tuition fees at that institution may be of interest:
At last it has been suggested that tuition fees be raised to $200 a year Of the great number of men in College hardly nine-tenths would feel this advance in any appreciable degree. It should be noted that many expenses would render a College course impossible for some men, but it has also been suggested that in view of this fact the University scholarships should be increased to seventy-five, which would provide for all exceptionally meritorious men, and could easily be endowed by generous donations from the University. Meanwhile, the usefulness of the College would no longer be cramped."
If the fees charged at this University are legal, would not the establishment of a number of such scholarships be a good solution of our fee question? The majority of the students in the University can well afford to pay the fees, and there can be no doubt that if the money is judiciously expended, the needs of the University justify the charging of the whole amount.
short Sketches of the Members of the Class of '94.
Before giving the personal history of the members of the Class of '94, it may be well to prepare the reader for the great revelations which he will find here, by stating that the present Senior Class is the greatest in the history of Kansas State University. Some of them, like Clay and Lincoln, have been reared in the typical log-cabin, and have passed their youthful days on the farm. But they have risen gradually until now their names occupy the most prominent places on the pages of fame in the history of this glorious institution.
Physically, the class is without a peer in the University. Intellectually, the class has not only been surpassed, but stands far above all preceding classes. Morally—well, the morals of the present Senior Class have never been questioned; their names have never been mentioned at a meeting of the Disciplinary Committee.
was born at New Hartford, Conn., May 2nd, 1867. Her early education was received in the public schools of Kansas City, Kansas. She entered Kansas State University in 187, and spent three years in preparatory work. Miss Spencer is a member of the Plymouth Congregational Church of Lawrence, Kas. Next fall she expects to enter upon a two year's training course, preparatory to library work.
EZRA W. PALMER.
the great class comedian, was born on a farm near Olathe, Kansas, Jan. 22, 1808. His early life was passed, as that of most of our great men, in learning the rudiments of the science of farming. Thrown on the world at the age of thirteen, Ezra went to work to educate himself. He saved enough money to attend the High School at
MAY HOTCHKISS SPENCER
Paola, where he graduated with the Class of '87. After teaching two years in a "deescript school," "Ez" entered the University. Twice he has been compelled to leave school on account of finances. For nine months he traveled all over the southern States in the interest of a manufacturing firm of Detroit, and in his own interests also Last year he acted as principal of the Gardner schools.

LAURA RADFORD.
great mathematician. Was born in Clarksburg, West Virginia. March 3, 1886. Came to Kansas two years ago. Attended the State Normal in West Virginia. Taught school six years in High School in Nebraska. Will teach.
one of the early pioneers of Northwestern Iowa was born about the beginning of the 19th century. Little is known of the history of her youth except the fact that at four years of age her education was begun in a little white frame school house which had boards arranged around three sides of the room on nail kegs for seats. Her greatest achievement at this famous institution was in robbing the wild duck's nests frequently found in the eighty acres of school yard. Later in life she came to Kansas with her father and graduated from the Lawrence High School with the illustrious class of '87. Four years later K. U. opened her kindly portals to her and by dint of much hard working (the Profs.) she has completed the required work for the degree of A.B. in three years. The few remaining days of her life will be spent in the new Old Maid's Hall soon to be established in Lawrence.
The Seuler Play.
The Senior play is to be the attraction of the year. It will give an insight into University life scarcely heard of by the majority of the students, and entirely unknown to the average citizen of Lawrence.
Although the play claims to be original, and was in fact written by members of the class, yet the plot was stolen bodily from University life, and every character represented is one who lives and moves and has—or pretends to have—his being in the University. Not an original character has been invented; not an original word will be spoken. There is no need of anything original when so much that is of the intensest interest lies hidden within the life of the University waiting to be brought to light.
Do you desire to know of the secrets of student life, things even landlads cannot tell you, you can learn them at this play. Do you desire to see the much talked of, but never seen or heard disciplining committee as it sits in awful vengeance, you will see it at the Senior play. The class has had out spies for four long years searching out the hidden. What the different individuals have not found out, both good and bad, is not worth knowing.
All this they will bring to light in one evening. Every actor and actress is a star. They know just what to do and say and how to say and do it. In fact if you have done anything good or bad while in the University go to the play and see what it is that you have done.
The following is the dramatis personae:

To The Lawrence Journal.
"To the pure all things are pure." Obscenity does not exist in nature. Indecency is the product of our moral vision. It is possible for young men and young women of moral stamina and pure ideas to attend a scientific exhibition of boxing and wrestling without seeing in them anything indecent or degrading. It was possible last summer for thousands of the best men and women in our country to view the works of art in the Art Building without being injured in the slightest. It was equally impossible for those in whom prudence was characteristic or sensuality predominant to walk those art-adorned corridors without being attacked with a virtuous spasm or lost in sensual speculations. It seems to have been impossible for those on whom vice had left its withering imprint to attend the K. U. local field day and wrestling matches without seeing in them something that struck their degraded natures as indecent. Such reports injure our University and are detrimental to our athletic interests. As a matter of fact there was nothing about the exercises that was indecent save to those who viewed with a perverted, debased moral vision.
Field Camp of the Engineering School.
On the 7th of June a number of engineering students, among them Carter, Johnson, Withington, Crew, Matteson, Brooks, Morgan, Wherry, Sears, Allen, McComb, Graves, Wise and Lahmer, under the charge of Professors Marvin and Murphy, will make a camp a few miles from Lawrence, where they will spend four weeks surveying the country in the vicinity. The students are required to furnish only their board and bedding, other things being furnished by the University.
This year it is optional with the engineering students whether they go on this summer camping trip,but students who enter the Engineering School hereafter will be required to take three year's field practice during their course. These summer camps to give students field surveying practice are just beginning to be introduced by the leading engineering schools.
The amateur dramatic company which put on "Sweet Lavender" at the Coates a few weeks ago, gave that charming play at Lawrence Friday night. It is understood that the performance at Lawrence was received with unequivocal approval, which recalls the trite maxim that "super fiction from Sir Hubert Stanley is praise
Praise From Sir Hubert.
indeed." Lawrence does quite a little itself in the way of anateur theatricals and has covered a range in this field of art reaching from Shakespeare down to Charley Hoot. This has greatly accentuated the popular sense of discrimination among the people, and rendered their taste in these matters quite critical. The Kansas City company has abundant reason therefore to felicitate itself on having won hearty and spontaneous applause from the fastidious critics of Mt. Oread and Tennessee street.-Kansas City Star.

OUR STUDY WINDOW
I am an old woman; many means of enjoyment have been cut off from me, but as I sit here at the window, watching my grandchildat play on the grass, it is happiness enough to hear their joyous childish laughter. I can never hear too much of that blessed music. After a while it drifted away out of hearing, but my little Mary, weary with play, comes and eveeps into grandma's arms. I rock softly to and fro, and watch the warm, rosy little face sinking into sleep, my thoughts go back over a long stretch of time and space to little Mary Ann, and tears burn beneath my eyelids.
Little Mary Ann.
Little Mary Ann; I see her first a motherless girl, yet happy enough, for she had no remembrance of what she had lost, and realized no wants that were not filled, a light-hearted, careless, unearned for little maid, playing with a merry New England brook, and picking winter-green berries on the side of Canan mountain, growing up like a heathen, the good neighbors said, and said so often and so emphatically that it came to her father's ears, and made him think he was not doing his duty by the child.
So, when the brook is quiet, and the wintergreens deep under the snow, little Mary Ann sits in a sleigh before the house, looking straight before her, Aunt Roxanna, whom she had never seen until two days ago, is come to take her home. The child dare not jook up to the stern face of the woman beside her, she dare not look across to her father, the house and Canaan mountain, sloping down behind it. She knows she will burst into tears if she does, and this much she has learned already—not to cry before Aunt Roxanna. The sleigh starts on its long journey, and little Mary Ann neither looks up nor back.

The next picture shows me the great bare upper hall at Aunt Roxanna's. Little Mary Ann stands on a bench before the big spinning wheel—her own small stature is quite insufficient —learning to spin tow. Occasionally she glances aside at a little round hole in the wall. There is another one opposite it, and Uncle John once explained to her, on a rare occasion, when they were alone together, that the room had been planned for a dancing hall, and these round holes were the mouths of large bottles set into the walls to keep the music from echoing. Delightful to think of this dismal hall full of music and laughter! The gay scene dances before her eyes; she forgets Aunt Roxanna and the spinning wheel, blunders, and is brought back to realities by a sharp rap on the fingers.
Poor little Mary Ann! When bed time comes she needs all the bright pictures she can think of to keep her courage up as she creeps up the stairs in the dark, and this is just the time when these bright pictures will not come. Horrible faces leer and mock at her out of the darkness, till she is well night beside herself with terror. The hall is never so huge nor so empty as at night. She puts out her two little arms, though there is nothing she could possibly run against. Indeed, in all this world of shadowy horrors, it would be a comfort to come sharply into collision with something solid, though it should make her cry out for physical pain. As soon as she can mas ter the obdurate buttons and strings she slips into her little nightgown, and pulls the bed covers over her head, but the ugly faces, the grinning, ghastly, tormenting faces! She can see them just as plainly, no matter how closely she covers her face. The bed clothes have one advantage, however, they smot her certain impressible sobs which might otherwise bring her a sharp rebuke from below stairs.

Uncle John finds it necessary to fetch something from the back chamber. How those ugly faces fade and disappear as his candle comes glimmering up the stairs! Oh the relief which the sight of his kindly countenance brings! Was there ever anything sweeter than his low whistling in the next room? As he goes back, he stops to lay a comforting hand on the little brown head, singing softly the while: "While I watch, untouched their fusses."
INGRID
All six of them on the ground,
An angel of the Lord came down,
And he knelt before her.
"While shepherds watched their nocks by night,
Slowly, slowly, the candle glimmers down the stairs, and leaves the great hall in utter darkness; but light and warmth and comfort are in little Mary Ann's heart. The hymn sings itself over and over in her ears:
"An angel of the Lord came down,
And glory shone around."
She sees it all, and all night, long it
singes and shines in her dreams.
Ah, little Mary Ann, the good old hymns made one bright spot at least in those dreary years. They made the dreary New England Sunday a time to be looked forward to. It was worth while to sit perfectly still beside Aunt Roxanna, through the long prayers and the long, long sermon, only to hear the voices rise and swell and fill the room, to lose oneself in them, or to single out that one high sweet voice, and float with it up, up, up! The song rises to the child's lips, and she longs to pour out her voice into this sea of sound, but she catches sight of Aunt Roxanna's firmly shut mouth and is silent.
Yes, the meeting house gave occasional glimpses into Heaven; but oh the school house! I see it only too plainly. I see the bleak bare room; the windows put in sideways, so there might be no temptation to look out of them. Before the fire place is a bench, and on the bench, her little feet dangling a long way from the floor, sits little Mary Ann—gagged! What has she done? I do not know. Neither does she; but she accepts the situation calmly, as she has learned to do. My old blood bolls as I watch her. The children pay no other attention to the matter than may be indicated by unusual studiousness. They are accustomed to such occurrences. The master strides up and down, up and down, with his walnut ferule in his hand, and if by any good fortune he finds a child's foot in the aisle, he steps on it.
One more picture of the old school-room presses upon me, and I can no more shit it out than Mary Ann could hide from the ugly faces which tormented her. It is a bitter winter's morning, and little Mary Ann chilled through during her long walk to school had slipped into her seat across the room from the fire-place, almost numb with the cold. But in a moment numb she forgets it all. In front of her sits a child with a mass of golden curls, lit up by the sunshine streaming down from the high window. They are beautiful beyond belief. The angels of the Lord must have such, thinks little Mary Ann. She puts out a tiny stiff finger to touch the shining wonder, half expecting it to melt into air. Down comes the ferule of the master on that wee, cold hand and in another instant little Mary Ann lies in a heap on the floor. The master does not allow such an incident as this to break up the school, but his coward's face is white as he sternly raps the tumultuous throng of children back into their seats. He dashes snow into the pale little face, and rubs the stiff hands with snow, and after while little Mary Ann opens her eyes, very much terrified to find herself lying on a bench, and the school master coming now and then to look at her.
Ah little Mary Ann, the children in your day had a stern rearing, but not to many of them. let us hope, came such desolate years as those you spent with Aunt Roxana. She was a good woman. She followed the path of duty as she saw it without variability or shadow of turning; but she had no more tenderness in her heart, and knew no more of the needs of a child's nature than the granite of her native New England hills. The good wise Lord gave her no children of her own and it would have been well for little Mary Ann if men had taken this as a sign that another woman's were not to be entrusted to her care. At last those dreadful years have come to an end. Little Mary Ann stands before Aunt Roxana listening breathlessly to the statement made in a tone a lawyer might use to a client "Your father has married again, and sent for you to come home." "Home" thinks the child, "home, home, home." Her face glows.
"Are you glad to go?"
"Yes ma'm. No ma'm. Yes ma'm.," says the baby, trying to tell by the expression on the face before her which the right answer is, so thoroughly has she learned the lesson of her duty to conform herself in all respects to the wishes of her elders, according to the New England interpretation of the fifth commandment.
When again little Mary Ann sits in a sleigh before the door, she cares neither to look back nor up. True, Uncle John's kindly face is above her, but the road before her leads to Cannon, this poor little bondswoman's prumed land. After a few days travel they reach a little town. The child neither knows or cares what it is. It is not Cannon. That is enough for her. But as they draw up before the shuckling old tavern, Uncle John looks down at her with twinkling eyes, and points with his whip to a man's tail figure stridling towards them. Little Mary Ann's eyes grow wider and wider, her heart flutters like a bird-song, and then almost stops beating. "Father" she quavers, and as he catches her up from the sleigh, she twines two loving arms about his neck, and falls to sobbing on his shoulder.
Little Mary Ann! Poor little Mary Ann!
It was a long time ago, and I am an old woman, but there is a sob in my throat now, as I think of her.
I kiss the peaceful sleeping face on my bosom, and rock softly to and fro—my daughter comes in briskly from a romp with the children in the swing.
"I declare mother," she says, "how you do spoil Mary. She might just as well have her map on the bed, and she is too big and heavy for you to hold."
I only bend and kiss the child in answer. My daughter looks at me half wonderingly, half understandingly, as my lips quiver through their smile. She does not hear little Mary Ann sobbing in the darkness.
