The game Last Saturday was, as had been expected, a very good one. The visitors put up a strong game as did also our boys. The Lawrence people who were saying last week "I'm afraid they'll beat our boys" discovered that there is little ground for their fears With our two best sprinters out of condition for hard work, it was impossible for our boys to make the brilliant end plays that have been so prominent in our other games this fall. Had our runners been in prime condition the game would doubtless have resulted in a victory for K. U. instead of in a tie. THE matter of obtaining a University pin or button should be looked after at once, before any greater variety of emblems are introduced. The Senior class of the University of Iowa at a recent meeting appointed a committee of two to obtain the appointment of similar committees from the other classes and to organize a committee of the whole to take action in the matter of a university emblem. Why would not a similar plan be feasible here? At any rate, the first thing to do is to obtain the best design possible. If we had some one authorized to receive designs, doubtless a great many original designs would be handed in, as many of our students have been thinking about this matter. Professor Clark has an original and very tasteful design. THERE was lately, as many discovered to their sorrow, an outbreak of that very troublesome missing of hats and other small things left in the halls, which bothers us at times. Such occurrences happen, we think nearly always from carelessness. Some person hurriedly takes a hat similar to his own from the hooks and wears it away without noticing that it belongs to some one else. The owner of the missing hat takes some other hat, hoping that it may belong to the person who has take his, and so the matter goes on, causing great inconvenience to many. As a remedy for this state of affairs we suggest that every one exercise the greatest care to get his own hat, and if he cannot do that, that he take no hat at all. It is better for one to suffer the inconvenience than for many to suffer it, and besides, no one, even though he cannot find his own hat, has any right to take another's. A little more care will entirely do away with this bothersome disappearance of hats, rubbers, and umbrellas. There is another matter, which we wish This is a placeholder image. It should contain text or graphics relevant to the topic but currently does not display any content. 6 THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. to mention in this connection. It is, the disappearance of books from the library. The missing books have been taken from the seminary room-the books in the stack are made very safe by the method in use at the delivery desk—and if books continue to disappear it will be necessary to take all books from the seminary room and place them in the stack. Such a change would be a great inconvenience to the students and would materially lessen the usefulness of the library. But of course this argument does not appeal to the person who is base enough to take a book from the building without the librarian's consent. It is expected, however, that it will appeal to the earnest students, who can assist the librarian greatly in preventing the further disappearance of books. WHEN a college so far forgets its high aim as to make athletics instead of scholarship its end it is well started upon the road which will bring it into contempt with all thoughtful people and will lead to its final ruin. And when a college obtains its athletes by purchase-by hiring them, or by paying a part or all of their expenses-or when it allows itself to be represented by athletes who are kept in school by their athletic ability and not by their scholarship, it has made athletics its aim, to the injury of scholarship. This is just as true when the college allows outside parties to purchase (as defined above) its team for it as when it does the purchasing itself. Some will plead that it is necessary to win games and that to do this often requires stronger men than can be found among the bona fide students. It is not necessary to the athletic interests of a school to win games. It is better to win than to loose; but it is better to play bona fide students, and if necessary, to lose honestly than to win by means of hired or merely tolerated students. ATHLETI@S. The Doane eleven defeated the Nebraska University eleven last Saturday. The score was 12 to 0. The Nebraska University team was completely out-played. K.

Each Score Six Points in the Hardest Fought Foot-Ball Contest ever Seen in Kansas. in Kansas. Last Saturday's foot-bail game was the fiercest ever played in Kansas. Ottawa's team consisted of two real Ottawa men and nine of what was once the Baker team. These nine men had not forgotten the long existing rivalry between Baker and K. U., and entered the game with the determination of annihilating the K. U. team. Our team contained five of last year's players, all of whom remembered the game of a year ago and entered with a determination to avoid its repetition. Ottawa averaged ten pounds heavier,but the superior coaching of K.U.more than made up for what they lacked in avordupois. Potter and Ugly Taylor did the star playing for Ottawa, while the phenomenal tackling of Williamson, and the many large gains by Shellenbarger justly entitled them to the same notice for K. U. The teams lined up as follows: K. U. OTTAWA. Wilson...r. h. l. h...Potter Armour...r. e. l. e...Pearson Cowan...r. t. l. t...Davidson Griffith...r. g. l. g...Hamil Stone...c. c...Austin Moody, (Simpson).l. g. r. g...Hamil Pope...l. t. r. t...Farror Steinberg...l. e. r. e...Bedel Shellenbarger...l. h. r. h...Faylor Williamson...q. b. q. b...Allen Piatt...f. b. f. b...Toomey Score—K.

Ottawa puts the ball in play by Taylor making a place kick for thirty yards. Piatt caught the ball and carried it back five yards. It was then K.U.'s ball and immediately the hard battle began. Cowan bucked line for four yards. Armour went throughline for four yards. Shellen barger went through line for six yards. Cowan again bucked line for five yards. Pope took the ball but was tackled behind the line. . THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. 7 Cowan made an end run for a gain of ten yards. Shellenbargar again bucked line for four yards. Wilson advanced the ball through line two yards. Wilson again took the ball but failed to make a gain. Piatt bucked center for four yards. Shellenbarger went through between tackle and end for four yards. Wilson bucked line for seven yards. Shellenbarger went through line again for a three yards gain. Cowan bucked the line and gained four yards Here Stone in passing the ball threw it over Williamson, and after a half dozen men had attempted to fall on the fumbled ball it was finally captured by Ottawa thirty yards back of the place where it was snapped by Stone. Allen fumbled and Griffith got the ball. Wilson and Shellenbarger each made gains when the ball was again fumbled and Ottawa got possession of it. Ugly Taylor tried the end but failed to gain. Potter was then given the ball and soon passed every man on the field but Shellenbarger, who failed to stop him, but checked him so that Steinberger caught him before he had recovered his speed. This was a pretty run of thirty-five yards. Toomey and Ugly Taylor then bucked the line until a touchdown was scored by Toomey. Taylor kicked an easy goal and the score stood 6 to 0 in favor of Ottawa. Time 15 minutes. K. U. put ball in play with a place punt by Piatt of thirty yards. Ugly Taylor caught it and carried it back five yards. Ottawa then after making several good end runs was given five yards on an offside play. At this place Ottawa fumbled and Griffith secured the ball. Immediately K. U. fumbled and Ottawa got the ball. Ottawa did some hard line bucking, but soon lost the ball on a forward pass. Shellenbarger then went around the end for twelve yards. K.U. next tried line bucking but lost the ball on downs. Toomey makes an end run fifteen yards, then the next play fumbled and K.U. got the ball. Piatt punted thirty yards. Ottawa caught the ball but soon lost it on downs. K.U. then slowly but soon lost it on downs. K.U. then slowly but steadily advanced the ball until within five yards of the goal line, when Cowan took the ball and made an end run for a touchdown. Piatt kicked goal. Score 6 to 6. Time was up before the goal had been kicked. At no time in the second half was the ball closer than the twenty yard line of either goal. Shellenbarger made several long end runs. Slugging was freely indulged in, but Moody was the only man caught in the act, and the only man removed from the game. Simpson took his place. Cowan received a jar that rendered him unconscious for a time. Ugly Taylor presented a ferocious appearance with a piece of his scalp gone, his hair matted with blood, and his face dripping with it. The second half was hard fought all the way through and the final score was the same as at the close of the first half, 6 to 6. MY FIRST PICNIC. STUDY WINDOW. Long years ago-I think I was about six years old-I went to my first picnic. It was when the country where my parents lived was very sparsely settled, and a picnic, even to the older folks, was something to be looked forward to with much eagerness. As for me and my brothers and sisters, it was to be an epoch in our lives; and at least for us smaller children, an epoch destined to effect permanently our conception of the word "picnic." Weeks before the event was to take place the news was spread throughout the neighborhood that on such a date there would be a "basket" picnic in Byler's Grove, a place some five miles to the southeast of where we lived, and on a stream called Photo Creek. It was not long before it was decided in our home that work should be given up for the day and that we should all go. At once my mother and sisters began preparations. New linen suits were to be made for us boys, and new dresses for the girls. As the time drew nearer, it seemed to pass more and more slowly. A hundred times in fancy we pictured ourselves eating our "basket" dinner under some shady tree, before the time had arrived. All the morning of the picnic all was astir at our home. Horses were being harnessed, baskets filled and linen suits donned long before the sun arose, and while the morning was yet cool a load of us, with expectant hearts, started in a farm wagon for the picnic grounds. As the hills near our home faded from our S THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. view, clouds began to arrive on the horizon. They did not look threatening, but father wanted to go back. Of course we children "knew" it was not going to rain and coaxed him to go on. He did so, but by the time we were half way to Photo Creek, his fears were realized, the rain was upon us. We drove hastily to a low cabin on the prairie on which we were but nobody was at home, and the door was locked. The cabin was of logs with a clapboard roof projecting about a foot beyond the walls. Under this slight protection we all huddled, but the rain kept falling for about two hours, and by the end of that time we were all well soaked, and a clock inside the cabin warned us that it lacked only one hour of noon. Again father wanted to return, but again we dissuaded him and by twelve o'clock we had reached the grounds. We all got out of the wagon, and we children with our new clothing still sticking fast to our backs, began to explore the grounds, while father unhitched the horses. We expected to see something unusual, but the grove was so much like groves we had seen before that we were much disappointed. Even the "grand stand" we had heard so much about was a very tame affair. It was nothing but a rough platform of unplaned lumber, supported by wooden horses. And the seats which we expected would surely have some romance about them were nothing but a large, low semi-circular platform on which the boards were far enough apart to allow one to put his feet through upon the ground. It was placed just north of the "grand stand." and opened toward it. After this hasty survey of the grounds, we all sat down upon a wet log and ate our dinner of wet bread, chicken, cake and pie Now we children wanted to go home, but a crowd was fast gathering, and father was determined to stay and hear the sermon that was to be preached. The preacher soon took his place on the "grand stand," and we all sat on the wet planks along with the rest of the congregation, and listened for two hours to a sermon on "the serpent in the wilderness." O; how tired we children became! and how we wished he would quit! I had never heard a sermon before, and I wondered what he was talking and shouting about. He described the serpent and the pole, upon which it had hung, with such vehemence that I could almost see them before me, and he seemed so earnest about making us look at the pole that I feared something was wrong and felt a sense of dread in my heart. We thought the sermon would never end, but at last it did, and with a feeling of relief we started home. All that I remember of our journey home is about passing along a heavily timbered river. Even to this day I can see the green water of the stream, and the glittering drops on the heavy foliage. After that the picnic is a blank. Perhaps I was overcome with fatigue and went to sleep. But, as I said in the beginning, my conception of picnics that day undewent a radical change. Even now I agree with Mark Twain in calling a picnic a bore. S. A.M.Y. Language Conference. The conference met at the appointed time last Friday. The first business was the admission of new members. Professor Hopkins, who had moved at the meeting two weeks before that the class in American Literature be made associate members of the conference, seconded his motion, which had been left over, and the class was admitted to membership. Following the business, the announced program was rendered. Mr. Young pointed out that the striking difference between Le Misanthrope and Timon, of Athens is that Moliere's chief character hates man's vices, while Timon hates man. Professor Wilcox remarked that Timon and his surroundings as portrayed by Shakespeare were Roman rather than Greek and accounted for the anarchronism by saying that in Shakspear's time whatever was classical was GaechoRoman and not Greek or Roman Professor Hopkins occupied the remaining time with an interesting talk distinguishing the new analytical methods of literary criticism from the old method, which made a literary effect felt without showing how the effect was produced. Married On last Saturday, at 6 o'clock p. m.. at the home of Professor Blackmar, his sister, Mrs. Ellen B. Maxwell, was married to Captain Albert S. Barker, late commander of the flagship Philadelphia, U. S. N. Dr. Marvin performed the ceremony. Mr. and Mrs. Barker left for Chicago that evening.

When the Kansas City Star has exhausted its file of witicisms (?) concerning the University tribulations of a son of John J. Ingalls, a son of H. B. Kelley, a daughter of Gov. Lewelling, a son of Mrs. Lease and a namesake of Jerry Simpson, the weary, stricken public will sigh a long-drawn sigh of relief. "The chills,ventured a member of the class,and you could have severed the silence with a stick.

Now what would compel you to take a spoonful of quinine?" - * * * * * * * * * * "The word bitter," remarked the professor of psychology, seems to have associated with it something objectionable.

Students all go to Schaum & Henshaw for fair treatment in School Supplies, Text Books, Fine Stationery, etc., 917 Massachusetts street. Prof. Clarke made the cuts of Captain Williamson, of K.U., and Taylor, of Ottawa, foot-bail teams, that appeared in Sunday's Capital. Charles Welch, Will Adams and Frank Kilmer, of Topeka, visited friends here Saturday and took in the game between K. U. and and Ottawa. Now we play for the Inter-State Penant, and our foot-ball boys should have everything they need, in the way of support for the coming games. There has been a "fake" report going the rounds of newspapers that the K U. militia boys and students of Ottawa had a "scrap" during the encampment. In a recent letter to a friend here A. S. Foulks says: "I conduct twenty-eight recitations daily and after my school work is finished I try to read a little Latin." Last Sunday's Globe-Democrat contained a write-up of Rev. Hector Cowan. Some interesting anecdotes were given concerning his work on the famous Princeton eleven. Miss Laura Radford, State Secretary of the Y. W.C.A., is attending Y. W. C.A. Convention at Hastings, Nebraska. We have been asked if communications are received. And again we say the columns of the STUDENTS JOURNAL are open to all professors and students of the University. - Foot-ball is excellent work for the development of a pianist. It gives a delicacy and elasticity of touch not otherwise to be obtained. It is also conducive to the growth of a truly Padrewskian head of hair There was a very enjoyable social at Unity church Wednesday night. The Unitarians have made the Hallowe'en social a regular affair, and always have something original and appropriate to the occasion. Hallowe'en was celebrated by some of the University students in old time style and with unpleasant consequences to a few owing to the over-zealousness of a policeman. The imprisoned boys were released as soon as the marshal learned the facts in the case. Last Friday Professor Newson lectured to his Freshman Geometry class on the development of the science of geometry from its discovery by Egyptian Philosophers, in about the year 600 B. C., to the present time. His remarks were very entertaining and were greatly enjoyed by the class. Prof. H., wishing to discover how well acquainted the members of one of his classes were with the use of the library, asked: "How would you find this book (naming a certain work) in the library?" A pause, then Mr. B. answered: "I should ask the the librarian." "But," objected the professor, "do you intend to take the librarian through life with you?" Then some one smiled. The results of last Saturday's foot-ball game is conclusive evidence that K. U. should never make another date with the Ottawa (Baker) foot-ball team. And in fact a broader conclusion could be derived from the above statement. Foot-ball is by nature a rough game, and when two teams meet, between whom there is more than friendly rivalry, it becomes brutal. Therefore we think that we can conservatively say, that no two teams ought ever to play, unless the friendliest relations exist between them and their respective schools. THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. 11 The Chemical and Minerological Seminary met yesterday at four o'clock, and the following program was given. Some Experiments with Liquid Carbon Dioxide, by B. M. Dickinson. The Cyanide Process for the Treatment of Gold Ores, N.A.Boles. Prof. T.P.Cook, his Life and Work, Prof.E.H.S. Bailey, California's Bitumens, O.S.Allen. The Varsity eleven, including the substitutes, the Manager, Fred. McKinnon and the Coach, Hector Cowan, left for Nebraska Thursday. Several enthusiasts from among the students accompanied the team. The remainder of the students may be found in front of the Union Telegraph office, waiting for the wires to click out another victory for Kansas University, The annual State Convention of the Kansas Y. M. C. A. will be held in Ottawa, November 11th. Prominent on the program are L. D. Wishard, of New York city, Dr. W. A. Quayle, formerly of Baker University; Rev. George D. Redgers, of Lawrence, and State Secretaries from Illinois, Michigan and Texas, beside many local speakers. The convention promises to be a good one, and all young men are cordially invited to attend. Spalding's Athletic Library for October treats the subject, "How to Play Foot-Ball." It has articles by Walter Camp, on the playing of the entire team; Phil King on how to play quarter back, and Laurie Bliss on half-back play. "How to Give Signals" is also explained as as well as the training of a college foot-ball team by Jim Lathrop, of Harvard College. Price 10 cents. Published by the American Sports Publishing company, 241 Broadway. The University is maintaining two classes in systematic Bible Study. One a class for beginners under Hector Cowan, meets Monday evening, from 7 to 8 o'clock, at 1325 Kentucky street, and the other, a more advanced class, meets Thursday evenings, at 7:30, at the home of Re. George D. Rodgers, 1033 New Hampshire street. This is lead by Rev. Mr. Williams, one of the ablest Bible students in Kansas. These classes are open to all University students who wish to enter them. Commencement Exercises. The action recently taken at Yale, doing away with the old styled commencement exercises, was quite a step for so conservative an institution. This action was taken upon the recommendation of a committee of the faculty, appointed about a year ago. As now arranged the commencement exercises will consist of an address by the president upon the condition of the university and the presentation of the candidates for degrees by the "orator." The faculty committee doubtless considered matters carefully before recommending the abolish- ment of the time honored commencement' but still unless the arguments for the change differ from those usually advanced, we think the action of Yale is to be lamented. The public has often been told that the college senior has not the experience and knowledge of the world necessary to fit him to make a creditable speech: that the senior has not the time to prepare a good oration; and that the old-styled commencement exercises are an inhumane imposition upon a long-suffering public. As these statements usually come from college publications, we may suspect their disinterestedness, hence let us consider them. Taking the first, that the the senior lacks experience, we doubt the necessity for the sort of experience meant, that is "knowledge of the world." He has what is better—the thoughts of great minds; and he is not so lacking in mental ability or in experience as to be unable to apply them. As to the senior's lack of time, for the preparation of an oration, this could easily be remedied by dropping out some of the examinations and other worthless work of the end of the year. If an instructor cannot discover the standing of a senior without a formal examination he is too dull to discover it with one. And, finally, the argument that orations by members of the class are an imposition upon the public is clearly refuted by the action of the people themselves. No exercise of the University is attended by so many persons as are these same old-fashioned commencement exercises. Notice. The Woman's League will entertain the young ladies of the University at the home of Mrs. Dr. Williston Saturday afternoon at four o'clock. Mrs. Professor Hodder will read a paper on the college life of women at Cornell University. Chemistry Building. Mr. Wheeler of Axtell Kansas, entered the junior pharmacy class this week. The class in quantitative analysis have nearly completed the work of the half term. All are well pleased with Mr. Leighton as an instructor. A number of filter pumps have been attached to the water pipes in the chemical laboratory. They will prove very convenient in the rapid filtering of liquids. Mr. Cady assisted Prof. Franklin in the laboratory Monday and Tuesday, "looking after" the junior pharmacy class, which is performing experiments in general chemistry. The image provided is too low resolution to accurately recognize any text. Therefore, no text can be extracted from this image. 12 THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. Professor Sayre, Mr. Boyce and the carpenter have been making some improvements in the store room of the pharmacy department. The store room can now be reached directly from Professor Sayres' office. Mr.Newton will assist Mr.Steinberger in the store room. The Pharmaceutical Society held its first regular meeting of the year last Friday after-noon in the chemistry lecture room A paper was given by Chester Woodward on the rubber industry of South America. After the reading of the paper the regular officers of the society were elected. At the next meeting a paper will be read by W.T. Perry on plant analysis, and also a paper by one of the junior class. NOTES FROM THE LAW SCHOOL. Many students are preparing their forensics on one of the three subjects given in last week's issues. Several law students will probably contest for the honor of representing K. U. in Kansas-Nebraska debate. Several of the students will go home to vote. Perhaps there will be no recitation Monday morning in Equity. Judge Dobson lectured at the Court House Friday evening for three hours. He will probably not be here this week. Our soldiers, Blake, Means and Clarke returned from Ottawa Saturday. They are now buried in the depths of Equity. The examination in Torts was held Tuesday afternoon. Ninety questions for the Senior laws were certainly enough to daunt the bravest. Judge Thacher did not meet his class Wednesday morning. Dr. Martin Van Buren Stevens entertained the boys with a talk on Phrenology during the hour. The Kent Club met Saturday morning. Several of the members who were to participate were not present All placed on the program should endeavor to be on hand prepared to do their duty. The program for next Saturday morning is as follows: 1. Punitive Damages, Lyngar. Discussion by Higgins, Simons. 2.aws Respecting Sunday Contracts, Gaines. Discussion Gardner, Peairs. 3. Recitation, Kelly. 4. Life in U. S. Army, Blake. 5. Comedy of States. General Discussion. Critics Report. Selections from Luther. A book upon which Professor Carruth has been working during his spare moments for the last two years-extracts from the writings of Martin Luther, a German text for use in colleges-is now nearing completion and will be published before long by Ginn & Co. The labor of selecting and editing these extracts has been quite difficult, but recently Professor Knaake has lightened it very considerably by sending copies of desired passages in editions of Luther not to be had outside of Germany Indeed, the help received has been so great, says Professor Carruth, as to almost constitute a joint editorship, and it was as unexpected as it was great, for Professor Knaake must already be very busy with his work as editor-in-chief of the new Weimar edition of Luther's works. The Weimar edition is to fill fifty large volumes, of which some twelve or fifteen are now out. While Mr. Engle was unwell this week his classes were taught by Professor Carruth, who entrusted some of his own classes to Misses Henrichs and Parrott. University Extension The extension work of Kansas University has begun earlier this year than ever before, but still the excellent courses of extension lectures offered by our professors should be more generally utilized by Kansas communities. At present only three courses are being given; two on Evolution, by Chancellor Snow, at Leavenworth, and at Kansas City. Kansas; and one before the Lawrence extension society, on Modern German Literature, by Professor Carruth. Paola people have arranged for a course of lectures by Professor Dunlap, who is also wanted at Wamego, where a course will probably be arranged soon. Professor Hopkins will probably begin a course of lectures at Fort Scott, before long, if present negotiations do not fail of their purpose. The value to the University of extension lectures at these places will be especially great. Economic Seminary. The Economic Seminary met at the usual time and place last Monday evening and listened to reports of members upon economic writings in the periodicals. J.H. Engle THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. 13 gave an interesting summary of an article in a recent number of the Fortnightly Review upon a co-operative community established a few years ago near Sidney, New South Wales. This attempt at creating a co-operative commonwealth has not been very successful and the community will doubtless go to pieces soon unless radical changes are made. This report was followed by reports from S. S. Brown, R. W. Cone and Professor Blackmar, and by general discussion. Next Monday evening the Seminary will listen to reports from Messrs. Troxel and Breese. A prompt and full attendance of the members is desired. On last Saturday evening the beautiful home of the Betas, on Tennessee street, was thrown open for the reception of their friends. Over six hundred guests, many of whom were from out of the city, were delightfully entertained during the evening. The University people in attendance consisted of members of the faculty and of students from all the classes. Every one spent a very pleasant evening and the Betas' "house-warming" was a heart-warming as well. Beta Reception. ENGINEERING NOTES. Mr. Ludlow is working on a map of Lawrence. Armour's sister from St. Joseph.Mo., visited him this week. Presston, B. Plumb, jr., who was here two years ago, has returned to continue his course in electrical engineering. A new generator at the shops is now ready for use. The switch-board was put in last week. The electrical seminary met Monday afternoon and listened to a paper on fly-wheel accidents by J. L. Harrinton. A general discussion of the subject followed. Some of the engineering students are preparing to make an experiment to determine the effect of constant jarring upon the structure of iron. The truth of the once admitted statement that iron becomes chrystallized after long use is now doubted and it is expected that this experime it will throw some light upon the subject. Adelphic On last Friday evening the Adelphic held the most interesting session it has had this year. The number in attendance was larger than ever before, and the improvement in the literary part of the program was especially marked. The Adelphic male quartette made its first appearance and acquitted itself in a manner presaging success for the future. On account of the antiquity of the subject discussed, the debate was somewhat wearisome but the eloquence of the speakers, and especially of those on the negative, tended to make the debate quite interesting. The critic's report was exceptionally good and elicited well merited applause. The program for the next evening, as announced is as follows: Recitation, Mr. Logan; essay, Miss Henricks, Our Bad Land Expedition, Mr. E.S.Riggs; essay, Miss Morgan; selection, Mr. Rohrer, impromptu speech, Eli Cann; music, Adelphic quartette. The question for debate is: Resolved, that a board of arbitration should be established to settle disputes between labor and capit 1, and that its decision be final. Affirmative speakers Messrs. Charles and Fair; negative speakers Messrs. Simpson and Hall. General discussion always follows the speeches of the principal debaters, in which all present are allowed to participate. The Adelphic welcomes to membership all who are interested in the work. @COLLEGE WORLD. Her smile was most bewitching, as beside him down she sat. And she made a great impression, but she made it on his hat.—Ex. Missouri State University has 450 students enrolled. Since the death of Holmes there are only four surviving members of the class of 1829 of Harvard, one of whom is Rev Samuel F. Smith, author of "America." Harvard and Princeton will not try conclusions with each other on the foot-ball field this year. Neither will there be a game between Yale and U. of P.-Ex. Probably the oldest university professor in active work in Germany is Frank Neumann. He is ninety-six years old, and has been lecturing continuously for the past sixty- ix years. 14 THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. Ottawa University is soon to erect a gymnasium and Drill fall. Emporia College foot-ball team has been practicing hard under the direction of a coach from K. U. The Freshman class of Nebraska University is going to give a social. The '98ers of K.U. are too busy trying to evolve a football team to think of sociaIs yet. Nebraska is making active preparations for the Kansas-Nebraska debate. Four divisions of debaters have been made with eight men in each division. The subjects are: Division A. Resolved. That the principles and policies of the A. P. A. are un-American and inexpedient. Division B, Resolved, That capital punishment should be abolished. Division C. Resolved, That it was a mistake to grant the negro the right of suffrage. Division D. Resolved that the present social and political conditions of the United States demand a material increase in our standing army. K. U. is especially fortunate this year in having the services of Hector Cowan, who is beyond doubt one of the finest men that was ever on the foot-ball field. He is said by many to be one of the five great foot-ball men (viz.: Hefflefinger, Camp, King, Cowan and Moffat.)—Nebraskan. The Yale Courant offers prizes of $30, and less for the best stories and poems written by students. The Journal hasn't any "prize fund;" but the honor of having a production published should be enough to bring forth, especially in the line of poetry. Don't wait till spring—anybody can write poetry (?) then. There is a movement on foot to form an inter-collegiate association of all the college and university debating societies. Such a union has already been formed among the eastern universities and will probably spread throughout the United States. It is proposed to have a subject for debate sent out each week by a central executive committee, and it is thought that the discussion of the same question by so many societies will influence the press to give special attention to such questions and will stimulate thought on live issues, especially among the college students. A purse of $60 is awarded at Dartmouth to the member of the athletic team standing highest in his class. The Harvard Advocate contains a long and dull editorial upon the universal stupidity of college editorials, claiming that the reason for their stupidity is their insincerity. We wonder if this explanation accounts for the dullness the Advocate's editorial? Coal at Griffin's. Griffin, the coal man! Griffin the Coal man. J. M. Jones, the grocer. Go to Jones for groceries.

A Pale Gray Donkey of Damascus, scorning a well-filled manger of corn and oats, slipped his halter to roam over the arid desert, where he found among the hot sands and burning rocks a scanty crop of thistles; and on the third day he perished. The moral of this is: Don't Be a Pale Gray Donkey. Don't wander away from home without going over the ever popular SANTA FE ROUTE. The Santa Fe has lines in 15 States and Territories. It always gets there carefully and on time; and, considering all things, is cheaper than other roads. Don't persuade yourself that any other way is satisfactory; especially if figuring on a trp to CHICAGO and East. The Santa Fe is the shortest line by 30 miles between Kansas City and Chicago, and has few crossings at grade. Its vestibuled flyers are beauties. Two of them leave Kansas City every evening.

University Medical College, Kansas City, Missouri. The Fourteenth Annual Session will begin September 14, 1894, and continues six months. The next session offers greatly improved facilities for study. The curriculum is embraced in three regular graded courses of lectures, with special clinics at several hospitals and practical instruction in the special laboratory departments of Histology and Bacteriology, Chemistry, and Operative Surgery. Clinical and practical teaching is a feature of the schools, especial attention given to having each student familiarize himself with the diseases met with in the west. Abundance of opportunity is thus afforded, and classs is never too large to give every student personal instruction. There are twenty-nine professors and instructors in this school, most of whom are officially connected with almost every prominent hospital in and about Kansas City, and matriculants have ready access to the clinical service of these institutions. A hospital controlled by the Faculty adjoins the college. The college building is one of the most complete and convenient in the west, additions having been made which more than double its capacity. With liberal appointments in every way, the college is well equipped for affording a thorough course of instruction in all the departments of medicine and surgery.

LAWRENCE WORLD, LAWRENCE, KANSAS. VOL. III. NOVEMBER 9,1894. NO.10. During the campaign just past there have been few political speakers here who have not taken occasion to make various statements concerning the supposed political teachings of the Department of History and Sociology, with such added remarks, commendatory or otherwise, as comported with the politics of the speaker. It is very much to be regretted that the men to whose care the difficult duty of civil administration is entrusted—the politicians—should be so warped by partizan passion as to be unable to believe that the men of other parties may be honest in their opinions or may have valid arguments in favor of some of their views. Many politicians do not seem to know that political economy is the study of universally valid natural laws upon which, as a basis, each student may build his own political theories. It seems to be entirely beyond the comprehension of the political speaker that anyone can take a non-partizan position upon economic matters and teach his students to see the truth-the weak and the strong points of both sides. One of the speakers to whom a Lawrence audience has listened this fall is reported to have said that the University should teach a certain political dogma favored by his party! Such a plan is worthy of the fellow we cannot recall his name just now—who endeavored to bridle Professor Ely. It is equalled only by the mediaeval attempt to prevent men from thinking that the world is round. It is the height of demagogism. However the good sense and tolerance of the people of Kansas is too great to sanction any such plan for inculcating narrow dogmas instead of universal truths. Their love of intellectual freedom and activity will never allow the cause of free and unhampered research to receive such a set-back as would be given by the adoption of an arrangement like that suggested by the speaker referred to. At the University of Minnesota there is a custom which might be introduced here with excellent effect. It is, an annual Thanksgiving reception, given by the Senior and Junior classes to the rest of the school. Such an institution would promote a close and mutually helpful acquaintance between the upper and lower classmen, and cultivate a broad and enlightened class and University spirit in the breast of every one participating. We have, it is true, the very useful and pleasant Chancellor's Reception, which has been unavoidably postponed this year, but it is not enough. It can serve as but lit- The image provided does not contain any visible text or images to transcribe.

It is not too late yet for the Senior and Junior classes to consider this subject. If it should be thought too late to arrange for a Thanksgiving reception, one might be given just be fore or after the Christmas recess. The largeness of the number of students who went home to vote shows that the university of to-day does not remove its students from interest in the affairs of ordinary life. To those who hold to the theory that the state furnishes public instruction for the purpose of making better citizens, this interest of the University students in elections is a satisfactory reason for continuing to foster this school -for there can be no doubt that the instruction obtained here makes the student capable of better citizenship, if he is not thereby deprived of interest in practical affairs—while to every one this interest or the student presages the elevation and purification of politics. The foot ball team that Kansas sent out to beat Iowa's team has returned without the hoped for victory; but there is nothing in the fact or in the game our boys put up, to be ashamed of. Each team made the same number of touch-downs, showing that the teams were very evenly matched, notwithstanding the fact that two of our best players were unable to enter the game and another was obliged to quit playing before the end of the game. However, we are not endeavoring to apologize for our team. We are not ashamed of their work last Saturday. We sincerely hope that the class that is thinking of getting a class pin will consider the matter in all its lights before taking definite action. For obvious reasons a class pin cannot satisfactorily take the place of a University pin in a general way; and it is plainly to be seen that the wearing of a University pin would be far more useful and desirable than the wearing to a class pin, which would be recognized by only a few. A man cannot well wear both. Which shall he choose? At any rate, a ring is much more appropriate for the emblem of a class. We are indebted to Art McMurray for the excellent write up of the Kansas-Iowa game published in this issue. WE wish to congratulate the M. S. U. Independent upon its enterprise in arranging to give an accurate detailed account of each league game in which M. S. U. is interested, upon the evening of the day in which the game is played. This is to be done by means of extra issues. Their first extra was published last Saturday evening and gave an account of the Missouri-Nebraska game and also the score of the Kansas-Iowa game. CONTRARY to our expectations, the Baker Beacon devoted scarcely three inches to a report of the K. U.-Ottawa game However, it aptly characterizes the game as one of "Fumbles versus Tumbles." THE PIN QUESTION. Some time next week the Chancellor will call a mass meeting of the students for the purpose of formulating and adopting a plan for securing a Kausas University pin. The desirability of such a pin is acknowledged by every one. It would be a means of recognizing a Kansas University man, or woman, whenever one might meet him, or her; and hence would be the means of forming new and valuable friendships among alumni when the students leave the school and go out to find occupations. The pin would promote a closer union among the students, and a helpful patriotism for the University. By increasing the frequency of meetings between old alumni and active students, it would keep the alumni in closer touch with the school and this closer sympathy would lead them to work for the advancement of the University. Nothing can be more beneficial to an institution of learning than to have a patriotic and energetic body of alumni exerting their influence in its interests. As we have said before, the requirements for a pin are; that it should be so neat and unobtrusive as to be worn appropriately at all times by all students and alumni of Kansas University, and that it should be so original and appropriate in design as to be readily distinguished from every other emblematic pin and to win and retain the favor of the students. It will, it is true, be difficult to obtain such a pin, but this fact only makes it the more important that we consider the matter thoroughly and carefully and that the body to which action in the premises is entrusted—if it be deemed best to have any such body-be carefully chosen THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. 7 from among those best fitted for the task. By all means, then, let us have a K. U pin. It would be beneficial to the student and to the University. In not having an official pin we are behind the times for every important college in the country has such an emblem. There is, this year, an unusually strong desire among the students for an authorized K. U. pin and consequently there will doubtless be a large attendance at the meeting. Let every student be present ready to suggest his plan for securing the best pin. ATHLETICS. IOWA 14, KANSAS 12. The foot-ball game last Saturday. Nov. 3d, between the State University teams of Iowa and Kansas was one of the closest and most exciting in the history of the Quadrangular League. The Kansas boys arrived at Iowa City Saturday morning at 8 o'clock af er having been on the journey since Thursday afternoon, at which time they left Lawrence. The delay was caused by neglect on the part of the manager of the Iowa team to send transportation as had been agreed upon, thus detaining the K.U. boys at Kansas City Thursday night and all day Friday. The boys were somewhat used up by the long journey and inexcusable delay. As soon as the team had breakfasted at the "Kirkwood" Hotel they retired to their rooms to rest up a little for the coming contest. At 3 p.m. both teams were upon the grounds and the game was called after a little preliminary kicking. S. U. I. K. U. S. U. I.

Linesman—Brownlie Kansas won the toss up and chose the west goal, thus having the sun at their backs and giving the Iowa boys the eastern end of the grounds which had been partly submerged by the recent rains, leaving in the center a delightful puddle of mud and water some three or four inches deep. The play in detail is as follows: Iowa starts the ball by a kick off of thirty-five yards and Shellenbarger returns ten yards with the ball by a good run. Wilson takes the ball through two yards on left tackle. Piatt punts and Iowa gets the ball. Iowa's left half-back fails to make a gain but atones for it by bucking right tackle for three yards. Fullback goes through center for four yards. Iowa on the next play fumbles the ball but gets it again and attempts to run but "Shelly" brings down the man by a good tackle and the ball goes to Kansas on downs: Hester makes two good gains on the center of five and seven yards. Wilson bucks right tackle for eight yards, followed by a gain of seven yards by "Shelly." Hill fumbles but recovers the ball. "Shelly" and Hester buck alternately and the ball goes to Iowa on downs. Iowa fails to make her five yards and the ball goes back to Kansas. After a series of plays by Hester, Wilson, Pope and Shellenbarger respectively, each for a good gain, Kansas fails on the xy play and Iowa claims the ball on a forward pass by Hill. Iowa fails to gain on three downs and K. U. gets the ball again. Wilson bucks the line for five yards but loses the ball which is recovered however by Armour. Armour attempts a run with the ball but loses it to Iowa. Iowa's left half makes a run of thirty yards on right end through mud ankle deep, and the right half gains five more Converse Iowa's right half now gains five yards on left end. Allen, full-back, bucks center for two yards followed quickly by a gain of ten more for Iowa. Right and left halfs buck alternately in quick succession but the K. U. rush line is invulnerable and the ball goes to Kansas on downs. Kansas now makes several splendid gains but soon loses the ball to Iowa on a fumble. Iowa however fails to gain on three downs and Kansas again takes the ball. Armour, Shelley and Wilson respectively, gain ground and the K. U. boys are steadily nearing Iowa's goal line with good prospectof of an immediate touch down. But their bright prospects are soon This image is too blurry to accurately recognize any text.

Hester is seen to grasp the ball but as he dashes at the center of the rush line the slippery pig-skin escapes his grasp and rolls into the hands of Hayes, Iowa's end rush, who with no one near to stop him and a clear field in front runs seventy-five yards for a touch down. Collins attempts a goal but fails and the score now stands after twenty-three minutes of play, 1owa 4, Kansas 0. Kansas now takes the ball to the center and Piatt kicks off forty yards. Iowa takes the ball. Keppler punts twenty-five yards and Kansas gets the ball. "Shelly" fails to make again and Piatt attempts another punt but the ball is blocked and Kansas loses ten yards. "Shelly" and Wilson gains seven and two yards respectively. Armor loses four yards. Piatt punts again for forty yards. Iown gets the ball and retaliates by a twenty-five yard punt, which Hester catches. Piatt punts again and the ball goes over the goal line, and Armor falling upon the ball scores a touch-down for Kansas. Piatt fails on goal. Score, Iowa 4. Kansas 4 after thirty minutes of play. The ball alternates between the two sides for the next five minutes, and when time is called for the first half the score is still Iowa 4. Kansas 4. Second Half—Kansas kicks the ball off and after five minutes of hard bucking the line scores a touch-down. Piatt fails to kick goal and the score is8 to4 in favor of Kansas. The play continues fast and furious for about ten minutes more with no great advantage to either side when Collins of Iowa suddenly breaks through the Kansas rush-line and secures a touch-down by a forty-five yard run. Collins fails to kick goal and score is Iowa 8, Kansas 8. The ball is once more kicked off by the K. U. team and is captured by Iowa. The Kansas boys soon gain possession again however, and after splendid gains by Wilson, Hester and "Shelly" respectively. Wilson takes the ball over the line for another touch down. Hester attempts a goal but fails leaving the score 12 to 8 in favor of Kansas. The ball once more and for the last time goes to the center of the field and is kicked off by Iowa. Both teams now realize that time is almost up and Iowa especially,seems determined to win.The Iowa team plays now quicker and faster than ever and her fast playing begins to tell upon the K. U. team. The Kansas boys succeed however in holding their own against the fierce attacks until suddenly a wearer of the yellow stockings dashes swiftly around left end for a run of twenty-five yards when he is tackled by Shellenbarger and Wilson. The ball however escapes from him and by the impetus of his fall is sent rolling for ten yards over Kansas goal line where it is quickly pounced upon by an Iowa player thus scoring the last touch down of the game for Iowa. Amidst the greatest excitement and enthusiasm by the supporters of the yellow, Iowa succeeds in kicking a goal thus making the score Iowa 14, Kansas 12. There is only about two minutes left to play and all realize that the game is up for the K. U. boys. Time is soon called with the score still 14 to 12. The greatest enthusiasm is manifested by the supporters of the Iowa team and the gallant Hawkeye players are borne from the field upon the shoulders of the crowd. The game was close from start to finish in spite of the fact that both teams were somewhat handicapped by the disagreeable condition of the grounds. This is the fourth game that has been played between Iowa and Kansas State Universities and each has been twice victorious over the other. An error on the part of the referee made the last half forty-five minutes instead of the regulation thirty-five. This may result in the game being given to K.U., as Iowa's winning touchdown was made during the last three minutes played. MISSOURI 18, NEBRASKA 14. Nebraska was vanquished on the gridiron last Saturday by the tiger skinned Missourians, 18 to 14. The Nebraskans outweighed the Missouri men, but were not in as good physical condition. The game was won by superior goal kicking on the part of Missouri. By all odds, the most brilliant player on the field was Flippan, the "Dahomeyan," Nebraska's colored halfback. He played the game of his life and struck terror into the stout hearts of the Missouri lads. The Kansas City Times says: "Without him Nebraska's eleven players would be but children. The darky was everywhere. He played across the field like a smoking flame. He plunged and he THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. 9 tackled, he bunted and he grunted, and once when the ball was Nebraska's on three downs, he removed his comical pagoda like cap and let out his pent up emotions in a wild halloo of satisfied delight." The team work and interference of both elevens was very poor and K. U's superiority in that respect will tell when she meets them on the gridiron. FOOT-BALL NOTES. Cornell won from the University of Michigan last Saturday, scoring twenty-two points to Michigan's nothing. Cornell is putting up great ball this year and will run the University of Pennsylvania a neck and neck race for fourth place among the great football teams of the east. Nine of Cornell's eleven are under 19 years of age, but Captain Warner, the pride of the team, is 24 and pulls down the scales at 205 pounds. The Lawrence High School met the Kansas City, Kansas, Migh School on McCook field last Saturday, defeating them by a score of 34 to 0. The Lawrence boys gave an exhibition of brilliant ball playing that could hardly be expected from a high school team. The interference and tackling was good, and doubtless when Captain Rodgers attends K.U. next year he will give the 'Varsity eleven some valuable pointers in goal kicking. Several of the best Kansas City players will also attend K.U. next year among them O'Brien, weighing 176 pounds stripped and a good all-around player. We are glad to see high school foot-ball receiving the encouragement it deserves. Material for future 'Varsity elevens could not be more happily supplied. The following are the scores in the more important games played last Saturday: Yale, 12; Brown, 0; Wisconsin, 46; Beloit, 0; Dartmouth, 10; Williams, 0; Illinois, 6; Pastimes, 2; Washburn, 16; College of Emporia, 4. Abilene defeated the Manhattan Agricultural College by a score of 24 to 0. The dispatches say that Captain Matteson, of Abilene, for two years the pride of the State University, was the most potent factor in the game. A jay paper of western Kansas informs its readers that foot-ball is not near so dangerous, now that the Marquis of Queensbury rules have been abolished. As both games of the league were won by goal kicking, it would seem to emphasize the importance of this accomplishment. More practice is needed by the 'Varsity eleven in this line of foot-ball playing. A sure goal kicker encourages the team immensely. On Tuesday morning the German Club and the Category Gulch boys met on the gridiron for a friendly game of foot-ball. Only one touch-down was made in the first half. The final score was 14 to 0 in favor of Category. The features of the game were the plays of Hassig and Morrison for Category, of Steele and Ludlum for the Germans, and the original signals of both sides. Gen. Toomey is advertised as the drawing card at a dime entertainment given by the Congregational church in Ottawa next Tuesday. He will sing. Verily the ways of a foot-ball man are past finding out. Baldwin Ledger. STUDY WINDOW The Editor still tarried in the country. The general impression was that he was away for his health. In fact he told his mother, when he said goodbye, that he felt the need of a change from his present work; a little undisturbed rest in the country would soon enable him to regain his usual vigor. The good woman was immediately alarmed; she "knew" he had been going beyond his strength, and, as she told those to whom she explained his absence, he had really been quite overworking himself; his was such an ardent nature that he threw his whole soul into whatever he undertook, and his health wouldn't stand it. Thus the report was spread abroad that the Editor had over-taxed his strength in his great undertaking, and everybody professed to be not at all surprised, although no one had noticed his looking ill. It was a great comfort to the Editor to think that whatever society might say of him, his mother would stand by him; though the world might call him a fool, in her eyes he would always be a paragon of learning. The Editor saw no harm in her adoration of him. Of course he knew that he was not very wise; but it pleased her to think so, and what was the use of protesting against it? He had not yet realized that in yielding to her worship, merely to give her pleasure, as it seemed to him then, he was fostering in --- 10 THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. himself a conceit that had caused him, at his very first entrance into public life, to make a fool of himself. And when the absurdity of his position flashed upon him, he had not the strength of will to bear up under it. Did he feel responsible for his work? Did he realize the selfishness of shifting his own burden to other people's shoulders? Society, too, had some claim upon him for having acknowledged his editorial ability. Did he recognize that? Doubtless something of all these thoughts was present in his consciousness, but not with sufficient force to make itself felt; it tended merely to produce a feeling of unpleasantness. The one thought distinct and foremost in his mind, was escape from the ludicrous position. That had always been the primal instinct of his nature. When he stood before his mother, his mind full of the thought of running away from his post, she thought she read in his face the signs of over-work; what she really saw was an ardent appeal to her to tell him that he needed rest. And when she laid her hand caressingly upon his head, and said: "Dear boy, you are working too hard, go into the country and have a little rest," he believed she was uttering her own, genuine sentiments; what he really heard was the expression of his own desire. A flash of sympathy had transferred it to her mind. In the country the Editor had plenty of time to regard his conduct from all points of view. A day or two of idleness is quite sufficient to turn the thoughts inside out. In all his life the Editor never experienced such mental activity as he did in those few days. When he walked alone in the woods, and heard the birds singing, and looked at the beautiful colors of trees and sky, he was seized with such a revulsion of feeling that he could find relief only in the ridiculously inartistic decorations of the "spare chamber" he was occupying. He felt like a fool; but why should he? Ought a keen appreciation of what is beautiful ever to produce a feeling of disgust? Ah, but examine carefully this keen appreciation of beauty; what is it? In the Editor's ease, it was merely a feeling for natural beauty, combined with a desire for subjective goodness. For twenty-three years he had been climbing this height of Be Good. It had been a solitary walk: alone with himself and nature he had lead a self-centred life: he had excluded humanity. And when he was almost at the top of the glorious height, when he seemed just about to reach the summit of self-absorbtion, some one in the valley below threw a stone at him-called him a "prig" and down he fell from the height of Be Good into the valley Fellowmen. The revulsion of feeling was natural. The real trouble with the Editor was, that there had been too much feeling and too little thought. He saw now that to "be good," was a passive state, probably only to be realized by doing good. And having reached this stage in his mental revolution, the Editor had still to consider the practical question of what he was going to do. He had a paper on his hands that he had established for a definite object. That object had dwindled into nothingness, but society could not realize it, because society had not realized the object. The paper must continue And then the Editor remembered that others beside himself had a purpose in the paper; that its existence, in fact, had been proposed by some one else. Perhaps Miss Blackburn would again come to his assistance. He felt quite sure, now, that she was discharging his editorial duties while he was away, although, before he left, he tried to make himself believe that all the work would not devolve upon her. It might, however be a good thing: he would see what she was going to do. He would go back, then—in a few days—and take up his duties. He would continue his work—in a few days—and change the plan of it so gradually that no one would ever know the revolution he had passed through. He did not know now what his plans would be, but he would trust to circumstances and get ideas from other people. And Mildred? She should never know he had heard that ugly little word "prig." Economic Seminary. The postponed meeting of the Seminary listened to interesting reports on current economic literature by B.B. Breese and C.

A certain number of tickets called "Patron's tickets," are to be issued These will cost the holder nothing unless the receipts from other sources should be insufficient to meet expenses. In this event an assessment will be called, at the end of the year; but this assessment is not to exceed one dollar for each ticket. The money to pay for the course is to be raised by voluntary contributions from the audience at the close of each entertainment: each person being asked to contribute according to what he thinks the entertainment has been worth to him. This is not strictly business, but if it succeeds it will certainly be a great benefit to the poorer students. K. S. U. in Harper's Weekly.

"The New Spooner Library at the University of Kansas" is the subject of a very readable article, which bears the name of John M. Steele at its foot. Besides a description of the new Spooner building, its construction, conveniences and contents, the article shows the inclined-to-be skeptical east that "in troubled Kansas has grown up an educational centre where can be found culture and learning of the broadest type." This issue of Harper's also contains an interesting review of Western Football, by Caspar W. Whitney, based upon information obtained from Mr. Steele and other correspondents in the West, in which the professionalism of the Ottawa-Baker team is touched upon. Adelphic. On account of the absence of several who were on the program for the last meeting the exercises were partly extemporaneous, but still very good. The account of last summer's expedition to the Bad Lands, by E. S. Riggs, was very interesting. Those who did not hear it missed a treat. The program for the meeting this evening is: Reading, Mr. Myers; Essay, Mr. Magaw; Recitation, Mr. Johnson; Essay, Mr. Wagner; Oration, Mr. Grant. The question "Has Science a Greater Disciplinary Effect oa the Mind than has Literature?" will be affirmed by Messrs. Scott and McCroskey and denied by Messrs. Engle and Cann. Snow Hall. The University has recently sold two of the peccary skeletons found last Spring in excavating near Goodland Kansas. One was bought by Harvard and the other went to the American Museum in New York City. The proceeds of the sale of peccary skeletons was used in purchasing for our museum the skull of a Mososaur found in Kansas. The skull of the Mososaur obtained by our expedition to the Bad Lands last Summer has been fully restored and mounted. The next University Quarterly will contain a cut of it, and an article treating of the subject. --- THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. 13 NOTES FROM THE LAW SCHOOL. Mr. Hinckman "resigned" his position as law librarian. He has not paid his fee. Mr. Thacher has not met his class for several days, the cause being the sickness and death of his brother. The majority of the Senior class went home to vote. Powell acted as librarian in the place of Johnson and Kerrigan. Judge Dobson delivered a lecture on corporations Wednesday evening at the Court House. The Judge comes up at times convenient to himself. Judge Humphrey held his first recitation on Constitutional Law, Wednesday morning. The Juniors have not finished Contracts, but will study Constitutional Law for about two weeks, when Contracts will be resumed. Lost, by C. L. Wilson a leather back vest memorandum book, containing notes of interest only to the owner. The finder will please leave the book at the treasurer's office and receive as a reward the satisfaction of doing a kind deed. Mrs. Brown, from Holton, Kansas, a graduate of the Law School, and now city attorney of Holton. was on the hill last week using the law library as any citizen of Kansas-except students who have not paid the fee demanded-has a right to do. The program for the Kent Club Novem. ber 10th is as follows: Male Quartette... Paper on Estoppel... Schreiner Sunday Contracts... Tucker Five minute talk on optional subjects... Cann and Little Extemporaneous... Chadwick and Bennett Recitation ... Wheeler Debate. Resolved. That the Exemption Law should be abolished. Affirmative, F.M. Brady and Powell. Negative, Richardson and Higgins. The Kent Club has been fortunate enough to secure some valuable lectures for the coming winter. These lectures will be delivered at the Court House Saturday evenings, generally by members of the bar, yet other speakers have been, or will be invited to address the club. Judge Norton is the first on the list, coming Saturday evening, November 10th, at 8 o'clock. While these lectures are primarily for the members of the Kent Club, all students of the University are welcome. Those students intending to enter the Law School at some future time may receive much valuable information from these lectures. ENGINEERING NOTES. Sal Walker is still limping from the effects of the Iowa game. The Sophomores will begin Shades and Shadows next week. Preston B. Plumb made a short visit home this week in order to vote. The Seniors have completed Masonry and will take up Sanitary Engineering. The Juniors will soon complete the preliminary survey of the coal switch. Crosby went to Kansas City, his home last Saturday, to vote for Van Horn. Richard W. Carter, Class of '94, goes to Chicago soon to take a position with the Chicago Bridge Company. The Sophomores have taken their last quiz in Descriptive Geometry. Their next subject will be Qualitative Analysis. Wagner has become a great football player as well as a baseball man. He played end in the great Category-German contest last Tuesday. His goal kicking was one of the features of the game. Prof. Murphy gave an account of his last summer's trip in western Kansas and Colorado before the C.E.Society The object of the trip was to obtain some information in regard to irrigation. The following program was given last Monday before the Physical Society: Paper on the Management of an Electric Plant, Kelsey; Paper on the Control of an Electric Railroad, Albers; Paper on the Electric Locomotive, Morsher. Millinery. Young ladies of the University will find it to their advantage to call and see Mrs. Gardner's new stock of millinery just received from New York and sold at the very lowest prices. Language Conference. The program for the Language Conference which meets in the Greek room at 4 p.m. to-day is: The Philoktetes of Sophocles, by Albert B.Bates; English Parallels to German Constructions, by Professor Carruth: and News and Notes. All are cordially invited. Some of the boys are having trouble explaining to their "best girls" why they did not vote for the suffrage amendment. --- 14 THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. The newly organized Institute of Arts and Languages at Topeka has issued a very neat catalogue for 1894-1895. George A. Schumacher, of K. U's class of '94 is the professor of German Language in this Institute. Students can find the best Boston Brown Bread, Saratoga Chips and those delicious Cream Puffs at the Home Bakery, next to the Central Hotel. J. H. JOHNSON, Proprietor. The appearance of Dick Blue's radiant countenance on the canvass the night of the election was the signal for an old-time Rock Chalk, such as sounded when the students worked their poll tax two years ago. The shower of nerve and brain food circulars has ceased, but now the students are receiving circulars from one of the ready-made essay and oration firms. What will come next? It isn't time for the book agency circulars; they come with the early spring flowers. According to latest reports the University Courier reporter has not died of mortification notwithstanding the fact that his column write up of Corbett was pasted upon the bulletin board by some member of the faculty last Monday with the added remark, "How is this for a University publication?" @ COLLEGE WORLD. It required four years of my early youth. To master my A, B, C; But now it is worse for to tell you the truth. But now it is worse, for to tell you the truth. It requires four years for A,B.-Ex. Eight American universities publish daily papers. The Kansas Academy of Science meets at Emporia December 26th to 28th. Baker's Motter is playing foot-ball in the Chicago Athletic Association team. Krupp made the largest gun in the world, but Ferris made the largest revolver.—V. A. Life. Ann Arbor's new gymnasium is probably the finest in the west. The main floor is 150 by 90 feet.-Ex. An inter-collegiate meet lasting three days has lately been held at Jacksonville, Illinois. Athletic, and oratorical—and eating-contests were engaged in with much rivalry. The State University won the championship cup. The question of wearing the cap and gown is being agitated in several western universities. They are to be worn by all the students of Northwestern University and the different departments will be distinguished by different colored tassels. The editors of the Missouri State University papers have petitioned the faculty to allow work done on the papers to count as regular work. From the appearance of the M. S. U. papers we believe that the editors are conscientious, hard workers and that credit should be given them. What a lot of enthusiasm it must take to carry the Lehigh student safely through his college yell. Here's the yell: "Kemo, kimo, dare I mal, make, maha, me rump stump stump pump a niddle, soap peck piddle wink, come a nip tap sing a song a polly wants you kino. Lehigh, Lehigh, Lehigh!" Wittenberg saw, last week, one of the fiercest rushes in its history, in which one man was knocked senseless and a dozen others more or less injured. An effigy guarded by '98, was the immediate cause for the onslaught from '97. A faculty investigation will be made, it is said.-Ex. May K. U. never become "easternized" in this respect. Washburn students celebrated Halloween by getting up about two o'clock in the morning and going in a body to ring the bell on Science Hall. They were met on the third floor by a professor and several assistants armed with pistols; but the boys made a rush, assisted the guards down stairs, and then proceeded to agitate the bell rope.

A Pale Gray Donkey of Damascus, scorning a well-filled manger of corn and oats, slipped his halter to roam over the arid desert, where he found among the hot sands and burning rocks a scanty crop of thistles; and on the third day he perished. The moral of this is: Don't Be a Pale Gray Donkey. Don't wander away from home without going over the ever popular SANTA FE ROUTE. The Santa Fe has lines in 15 States and Territories. It always gets there carefully and on time; and, considering all things, is cheaper than other roads. Don't persuade yourself that any other way is satisfactory; especially if figuring on a trp to CHICAGO and East. The Santa Fe is the shortest line by 30 miles between Kansas City and Chicago, and has few crossings at grade. Its vestibulated flyers are beauties. Two of them leave Kansas City every evening.

The next session offers greatly improved facilities for study. The curriculum is embraced in three regular graded courses of lectures, with special clinics at several hospitals and practical instruction in the special laboratory departments of Histology and Bacteriology, Chemistry, and Operative Surgery. Clinical and practical teaching is a feature of the schools, especial attention given to having each student familiarize himself with the diseases met with in the west. Abundance of opportunity is thus afforded, and classes is never too large to give every student personal instruction.

A hospital controlled by the Faculty adjoins the college. The college building is one of the most complete and convenient in the west, additions having been made which more than double its capacity. With liberal appointments in every way, the college is well equipped for affording a thorough course of instruction in all the departments of medicine and surgery.

LAWRENCE WORLD, LAWRENCE, KANSAS. VOL. III. NOVEMBER 16, 1894. EDITORIAL. NO.11. PRODUCTIVE literary ability in the University seems just now to be at low ebb. True, it has always—or at least ever since we have known anything about the matter been difficult to obtain sufficient literary material to fill the University publications. A large portion of the contributions received from the students are obtained only after especially personal solicitation, and furthermore, they are very often—perhaps generally articles that have been written for some other purpose. This plan is not conducive to the best literary talent among the students; for the editors solicit only from those with whom they are acquainted, and there are not enough productions handed in to make practicable the rejection of articles not fully up to the standard of literary excellence. We realize that the students are busy with their regular work, but still everyone that feels able to write a poem or story should take time to do so and hand the production to one of the University publications. By so doing he is not only assisting in supporting the honor of the school but is also helping in his own development. Every one should endavor to give out as well as to receive, the personal benefit reaped by so doing is great. Here is an opportunity for some patriotic alumnus to encourage the cultivation of literary ability in Kansas University by offering prizes for the best story and for the best poem written by students and published in the Univerity periodicals. Is the University Debating Club to be allowed to die out? We sincerely hope not, but the attendance—or rather, lack of attendance-lately, has seemed to indicate that the club cannot long exist unless the members take a more active interest in the work. The Adelphic Literary Society has received new life this Fall, presumably from the prospects of the Kansas-Nebraska debate: but the Debating Club, which was organized only last year, with such excellent prospects for success, has gained no impetus from the arrangements for the interstate debate. This fact is difficult to explain, but however this is, the cure lies in making every member of the Club feel that it is his duty to attend every meeting. Even if the member should feel disinclined to attend a meeting he should overcome his disinclination, for his presence is necessary to make the club a success by encouraging those who 6 THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. speak and by speaking himself. Besides the vast amount of benefit coming to the individual through attendance upon and participation in the exercises, the University is completely dependent upon the various societies for the men who are to sustain its honor against the forensic attacks of Nebraska's representatives. Hence the duty of every student who has the welfare of this University at heart is to encourage the debating societies, and especially the University Debating Club because it seems to be most in need of encouragement. At the next meeting of the Nebraska legislature there will be presented a bill, originated by the Prison Reform Association providing for the creation of a State Board of Charities and Correction for Investigation and Counsel. The members of this board will, according to the bill, consist of the Governor of the state, the President of the Regents of the University, and four commissioners. All appointments to positions in the state institutions will be made by the Governor, with the concurrence of this Board. In this point alone, the proposed Board will be very valuable, but the bill will further provide for its utilization by making its general secretary an instructor in a new department of the State University, the Department of Sociology. A year's course, consisting of active practical work in studying social questions, will be arranged under this instructor. We sincerely hope that the proposed bill may become a law and wish that some similar bill may be presented in Kansas. It would be a great help in encouraging thorough, fruitful work along lines now impossible to follow because of insufficient opportunity for observation. We already have here two courses, Sociology and Unsettled Problems, which are dependent for complete success upon just such practical work as will be offered at our sister and rival University if the proposed bill becomes a law. Wlll Kansas be backward in providing for the best welfare of her students? Even if it should be thought, for some reason, unadvisable to venture upon the matter in the way proposed in Nebraska, very material aid could be given by appropriating a sum for use by our Department of History and Sociology, in sending well qualified students to various places where important sociological phenomena may be observed and their causes investigated. The sum required for such an arrangement would be small--very small in proportion to the benefit to be reaped. AGAIN our foot-ball team has been defeated, but this time it is a defeat that is generally recognized as a victory for our boys. The odds were so clearly against our eleven, that, it is reported, bets of five to one were offered that our team would be shut out; and yet the score was twelve to twenty-two. And this, notwithstanding the fact that three of our best men were not in a condition to play, and that our "patched up team" had opposed to them what is, perhaps the heaviest team in the United States—a team that averaged eleven pounds more than ours, whose line averaged fifteen pounds more than ours. The Capital voices the sentiment of all who saw the game: "But, to make a long story short, the playing of the patched up team was magnificent." The game to be played on McCook Field to-morrow with Nebraska will be a very interesting one, and all the students should attend the game for the purpose of seeing what "Unele Jimmy Canfield's boys" can do at playing foot-ball. Our connections with Nebraska University are constantly growing more intimate, not only in athletics but in other ways as well Let us endeavor, by the most kindly and hospitable treatment, to make our rival our staunch friend as well. No team from Lincoln has been here since the acquisition of McCook Field. The last one here was their excellent base-ball nine, which gave our boys such a tussle in '92, but. which was beaten, with a score of five to four. The mutilation of the reading-room copy of Harper's Weekly, reported in our local columns, shows that the University is not yet rid of persons who are dead to all feelings of gratitude for the advantages given here, of pride in our excellent reading-room, and of appreciation of the rights of others. This vandalism can never be overcome by the librarian and her assistants alone, however watchful they may be. Hence it is the duty of every honest and patriotic student to lay aside all of that false sense of honor, which makes him unwilling to publish the 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. 44. 45. 46. 47. 48. 49. 50. 51. 52. 53. 54. 55. 56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 66. 67. 68. 69. 70. 71. 72. 73. 74. 75. 76. 77. 78. 79. 80. 81. 82. 83. 84. 85. 86. 87. 88. 89. 90. 91. 92. 93. 94. 95. 96. 97. 98. 99. 100.

A second time Kansas and Michigan have contended for honors on the gridiron, and a second time the yellow and blue of the Wolverines waves in triumph over the crimson of the gallant Jayhawkers. It is seldom that a defeat possesses the salient elements of a victory, but such is the case with the game played last Saturday at Kansas City. Michigan, besides having one of the heaviest teams in the country, has traded a long time at the foot-ball stand and may properly be classed among the great teams of the east. The fact that Michigan has played Cornell and Cornell has played Harvard affords an opportunity to judge of the respective merits of eastern and western foot-ball methods. While Kansas is not yet in the same class with Yale, Princeton and Pennsylvania, her snappy play and abundant endurance puts her in advance of western amateurs and assures her of an eastern standard, in time. This is due in a large measure to Prof. Hector Cowan, whose coaching was very much in evidence in Satday's game. All through the last half, when the Michiganders began to fag and grow perceptibly weary under the terrific onslaughts of Piatt and Pope, the Kansas boys seemed to take a new life, and their snap and vim earned them their second touchdown and would have earned them a third, but for the expiration of time. As it was, the whistle sounded for the close of the second half with the ball on Michigan's ten yard line. What serves most for the encouragement of lovers of the crimson, however, is the size of the score with theVarsity team in such a deplorable condition. All of the substitutes did their work well, far better than the most ardent well-wisher could have expected. But the Kansas center needed the strengthening assurance which accompanies the invincible "Chappie" Stone. The fleetfooted Steinberger could more nearly have balanced the end which Armour so gallantly held down-or carried with him. And the whole team needed the coolhead and the sure tackles of Captain "Billie" Williamson. The line up of the teams and their weights are as follows: KANSAS.

Lineman. R. W. Cowan: umpire. R. Ramsdell: referee, Tom Mastin. In the first part of the game the beefy Wolverines had it all their own way. Dyer and Bloomington advanced through the line or galloped around end, or by way of novelty, worked the crisscross, and every time for long gains, until the atmosphere became decidedly hazy for the Kansas rooters, and the crimson faded from view like the sun on a cloudy day. In fifteen minutes two touchdowns had been made and two goals kicked. In the next seven minutes another touchdown was added, making the score, Michigan 16, Kansas 0. A roar of joy and a taunting yell from the wearers of the blue aud yellow greeted the Kansans as they walked back to the center of the field, but it had a contrary effect from that intended, for the Kansas lads gritted their teeth, prepared to do or die. They first tried bucking the line, but the heavy men from Michigan were too much for them and Kansas was forced to resort to a punt. Hester kicked low, right into the hands of Dyer, but the latter fumbled and gave Armour a long wished for opportunity. The pigskin was rolling away from the rattled Dyer, when like a flash, Armour bounded through the Michigan line, caught up the ball and was off with it across the 10 S THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. field like a deer toward the goal line seventy-five yards away. By this time, Dyer had picked up his scattered senses sufficiently to start in pursuit. On and on sped the two men, champions each for his state. Armour had only a yard the start, but he retained this advantage and, crossing the line, planted the ball squarely between the goal posts amid thundering applause and cries of Rock Chalk Jayhawk which waked up the natives across the border. The joy of the Crimsonites was dampened, however, when it was found that Armour had been injured by Dyer unwarrantedly falling upon him, just as he was stooping with the ball to the ground. Armour was borne from the field in the arms of loyal admirers and carried with him the honors of the day. In the meantime, Shellenbarger had kicked the goal and the score stood 16 to 6 in Michigan's favor. Michigan started the ball at center next time and carried it rapidly down the field until it was within a foot of the Kansas goal line when the half ended. The second half was much more of an exhibition of brilliant foot-ball than had been the first. Foster took Armour's place in the line and did good work, pluckily refusing to go out of the game when quite badly hurt. Kansas found out she could play foot-ball in good earnest, and no longer looked askance at the big men from the lake country. Michigan kicked the ball off from center for forty yards. Shellenbarger punted back twenty yards. Dygert cut off all but four yards of Shelley's gain by a brilliant spurt around end. Bloomington started to do likewise but his career was cut short by Piatt's fine tackle. Senter fumbled and Piatt broke through the line for a gain of two yards, but Kansas soon lost the ball. Dygert then essayed to go around end but Shellenbarger brought him to the ground with the best tackle made during the game. Kansas again got the ball and Foster and Shellenbarger each made good gains through the line. Repeated gains were made by hammering the line and by end plays and then the pigskin was given to Wilson, who went through a hole made in Michigan's line by Piatt and Pope, ten yardsand secured a touchdown. Shellenbarger kicked the goal just ten minutes after the second half had begun, and the score was, Michigan 16. Kansas 12. Michigan then took a brace and carried the ball down the field for a touchdown. Bloomington kicked the goal and made the score, Michigan 22, Kansas 12. There was no more scoring on either side, but the remaining ten minutes was well utilized by Kansas, the ball being kept in Michigan's territory all of the time. By Wilson's kick-off of thirty yards, Shellenbarger's run of fifteen yards and the excellent line work of Foster, Pope and Piatt, the pigskin was advanced to within ten yards of Michigan's line, where it was when the whistle sounded the expiration of time. The game ended happily for both parties. Michigan's supporters were glad for the victory, and the Kansas rooters were overjoyed at the close score and the good showing made by the Champions of the Crimson. KANSAS, VS NEBRASKA. The game tomorrow on McCook field promises to be a good one. Nebraska has been saving herself for the contest and drilling in teamwork, meanwhile. Flippan. the mighty half and captain of the Nebraska eleven will make his first appearance on McCook field. The swarthy "Dahomeyan" has the reputation of playing a whole game by himself and can run further with three men hanging to him than any other player in the league. Flippan is prepared to play the game of his life and with proper support will make things interesting from a Nebraska standpoint. As for our own favorites, they have not been in better trim this season. The splendid showing made by Kansas in the Michigan game, although several of our players were substitutes, is a good guarantee of what can be done when the whole 'Varsity eleven is present. With Williamson, Steinberger and Chappie Stone on deck, the 'Varsity will play in'92 form. All students should be present and aid the team by some systematic cheering. FOOT-BALL NOTES. Missouri's lads could do nothing against the Ottawa-Baker professionals, and 28 to 0 shows the result of a very one-sided game. The Tigers pursued their usual line-banging tactics, but could make little impression against Ottawa's stalwart line of professional musicians; while Taylor, Potter and Toomey, by their brilliant end runs, made THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. 9 the play interesting for the spectators. Missouri's team work and interference has greatly improved since the Nebraska game and she is capable of taking a good rank among amateurs. The Princeton tiger no longer reigns king of the gridiron. The champions were no match for Pennsylvania's giant Quakers and went down before them, 12 to 0. This will probably give Pennsylvania first place among eastern university foot-ball teams. The scores made in the principal games last Saturday are: Brown 10, Orange 10: Dartmouth 30, Amherst 0; Cornell 0, Williams 0; Yale 50, Lehigh 0; Harvard 36, C. A.A.0; Washburn 42, Midland 0. Pennsylvania's great team is not as heavy a team as that of Michigan. The average of the former team is 171 pounds, of the line, 173 pounds; while the average of the latter is 172 pounds, of the line, 180 pounds. An error crept into our report of the game between the Germans and the Category boys last week. Neither side scored in the first half. The game at Iowa City last Saturday between S. U. I. and Grinnell ended in a row. The second half was nearly over, and the score stood 12 to 12 At this point it was claimed that Grinnell seized the ball after a down was called and hied away with it across the field for a touchdown. The referee would not allow the touchdown, and Grinnell left the field. The game was then awarded to Iowa State University: 6 to 0. STUDY WINDOW "I believe this is the thing we want," said Mildred, as she and Gertrude Blackburn and the Editor sat around the study table. The table was littered with manuscripts-contributions to The Chromo. During the Editor's absence, the girls had been managing the paper, and the contributions were the result of their solicitations. Under its new management, the first issue of the paper was the same as under the old. Gertrude described various bits of English and European scenery with which she was familiar, and which she knew how to portray in highly imaginative language. Nor were people left in doubt as to the meaning of it all, for there were constant allusions to Lowville, its natural beauty, the possibility of its using this for the reformation of mankind, its evident mission to do so. When it was all written and in print, and the editors should have felt satisfied with themselves for having faithfully discharged their duty, they sat silent and depressed in the Editor's study "O, I'm sick to death of the whole thing." Gertrude exclaimed, and the look of misery on her face was enough to prove her words true. "Why?" asked Mildred quietly, although she thought she knew. Gertrude had from following the lines laid down by the Editor, had been indulging in a great overflow of emotion, and was now merely suffering the inevitable unpleasant reactions. Mildred, of a practical nature herself, was inclined to be impatient at the general way in which Gertrude and the Editor looked at things. She wanted to do something. But she had not troubled her co-editor with her ideas, because Gertrude was not a girl who could be interfered with. If you sought to restrain or influence her she immediately became dispirited and lost her power of management. But if left alone, she could always work something out of herself, and, though it might not always be of great intrinsic worth, it would always be interesting. When Gertrude expressed herself as tired of the whole business, Mildred was all ready with a plan that she had merely been waiting her time to propose. It was the solicitation of contributions. The Chromo existed for the citizens of Lowville; and in its columns impartiality-a characteristic of all periodicals, by the way-must be observed: each voice must be given a chance to make itself heard. Accordingly the next issue of the paper contained the notice that the Chromo was ready to publish opinions of any one, interested in the advancement of civilization. The object of The Chromo was two-fold, objective beauty and subjective goodness: and anything affecting the political, social, or moral world was to the point and would be gladly received. The people responded to the solicita ion more readily than was expected, and much really helpful matter was received. The following we copy in full from the pages of the Chromo: 10 THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. ONE PHASE OF HUMAN SOCIETY. The bane of modern society is politics. Society can stand more visionaries, more enthusiasts, more fanatics, but it cannot stand more politics. Oh, yes, I know it is said that there are great fundamental principles concerning the welfare of government, upon which men must necessarily hold different opinions. I know it is said that these principles are of such vital importance to human welfare that men must consider them of paramount importance and thrust aside all other considerations in the defense or advancement of them. But I delive that of those who make such statements, many are knowingly dishonest, and many are honestly ignorant. Nevertheless, the statements are in part true. There are fundamental principles of government about which men must differ, and these principles may be, for all I know, of paramount importance. But the trouble lies here; no earthly man knows that the principles which he advocates are of paramount importance, be they in religious instruction or politics. And yet almost every man that ever entered politics goes about vowing by the immortal gods that he and his party are now, always have been, and will be, absolutely, wholly, and indisputably, right: and that every other party is directly upon the road to the infernal regions on account of its inconceivable corruption and ignorance. We would have good reason for believing the second part of their statement, if it were not for the fact that we know the character of the assertor so well. We know that it would be a great blunder to stake our faith upon any of his statements, and for this reason we feel that this old world may not be in a state beyond endurance yet. Be that as it may, we know that truth and honesty have very little to do with politics, or with the advocacy of political principles. Truth and honesty are thrust aside because the political principles are of paramount importance. In order to bring about the successs of our political principles it is perfectly justifiable to misrepresent ourselves, to vilify our opponents, to disobey the laws of the state; to buy with money, a bottle of beer,or a promise,the opinions or rather the votes of the dishonest and the degraded. To be in politics is to see the honest either become corrupt or go down amid tears and curses in the struggle for existence There is a grave suspicion entering the minds of some, and it is with regard to the political principles. The old definition of a political principle has been taken as being some theory concerning the welfare of a government and its people This definition is begining to be discarded and now sometimes on the sly a political principle is spoken of as being an office. The spelling of the word "principle" is being changed also to principal, and the great question of politics with regard to its principals is how large an interest they pay. Does this sound something like a fairy tale from long ago? Let us see if it is. A candidate for an ordinary county office is assessed by his party managers perhaps somewhat less than two hundred dollars. This sum presumably goes to pay the expenses of campaign speakers. It is not necessary to suggest that this money is put to a worse use, for perhaps it is not, and this use of it is bad enough, considering the kind of speeches that are made. Then the candidate himself must spend over two months of his valuable time standing on the street corners and inducing voters by various means to cast their ballots for him. If all this work were not done, would it be the principle that is deserted or the principal? A. L. C. With this view of politics the question of woman suffrage becomes of more interest. That, in this government, woman suffrage is right cannot be disputed, for men have no logical jurisdiction over the question of women's voting. The interesting part of the question is whether it will diminish or increase the amount of politics. If it will diminish this amount, all well and good. If it will increase the amount, let us join the shades of the departed beyond the Styx. Notice.

On last Friday at 5 o'clock Prof. Dychie delivered an interesting talk to a small but appreciative audience on the Birds and Mammals of Greenland. His talk was largely upon the recent trip to Greenland. One would expect, the Professor said, to find in Greenland, separated as it is from other bodies of land, peculiar species of birds and mammals. And inasmuch as the food of these creatures must be largely obtained from the fish in the sea instead of from the sterile land, one naturally looks for aquatic mammals and aquatic birds, not warblers. No good ornithologist or mammalogist has ever been in Greeland, hence there is a great field there for the scientist in these lines. There are doubtless many new species of animals existing in Greenland, especially among those animals least commonly seen. A record has been kept of the birds found in Greenland, and between one and two hundred species have been seen there. The Esquimaux have helped quite materially in making up this list of birds, for they klll and skin all the birds they can find. They use the skins for making underclothing. Of the species of birds reported as found in Greenland, fully one-half are chance visitors, such as the flicker, robin—which crosses over from Labrador, where they are very plentiful—and others. Prof. Dyche saw the skin of a barn-swallow which had been killed by an Esquimau. Once before, about twenty years ago, the barn swallow was reported from Greenland. Not more than sixty species of birds can be said to belong to Greenland, and of these somewhat less than fifty breed there. The professor then described in a very interesting manner some of his trips to the breeding island of the guillemot; the black-backed gull, which is worth $20 per specimen, as it is hard to get; the puffin, the eider-duck and other birds. The Greenland mammals are few. They are the seal, walrus, whale, polar bear, reindeer, fox, hare, and a species of mouse. Of these, the most important to the Exquimaux is the seal, upon which they depend chiefly for food, although they eat fish and parts of the reindeer for a change. Professor Dyche thinks that with the extinction of the seal, which must come about within thirty years if no check is placed upon their slaughter, the Esquimaux will disappear, as they do not thrive upon any other sort of food. The professor had an opportunity for examining a fine hooded ceal, and he also secured the skeleton of a very large polar bear; but this, together with his four-hundred and fifty bird skins, sixty-five mammal skins, fine walrus skull, and his Arctic library equipments, are now at the bottom of the ocean. Economic Seminary. The University museum suffered a severe loss in the wreck of this expedition, though not so severe as it might easily have been. The Seminary met as usual last Monday at 7:30 p. m, in the seminary room in Spooner library. E. T. Hackney described the Canadian plan of banking, which was recommended at the recent convention of bankers at Baltimore, to be substituted for our national banking system. M. L. Alden summarized the views expressed by a writer in the Journal of Political Economy upon the relative value of theoretical and statistical political economy, and C. T. Southwick reviewed Professor Ely's latest statement of his position in regard to sociology. Professor Blackmar, besides giving interesting personal anecdotes of some economic writers whose names happened to be mentioned, read extracts from the report of the regents of Wisconsin University on the Ely investigation. Discussion was quite general, and the meeting was very enjoyable. At the next meeting J. H. Eagle and B. B. McCall will report. A full and prompt attendance of the members is desired.

What if the professor happens to be a Miss or Mrs. A delegation of eleven students represented the University at the state convention of the Y.M.C.A. which was held at Ottawa last week. A full report of the convention will be given soon. Four pages of the Occident. for Nov. 1st are filled with "ads" of this kind: "Say boys! don't forget to vote for ___, for County Clerk," generally accompanied by a picture of the candidate. The glee club of Illinois University will take only eight men on its annual tour, and the tour will be made during the Christmas vacation. They believe that this will insure greater financial success, and will not interfere so much with the school work of the members of the club. ENGINEERING NOTES. Duffee was on the hill visiting last Wednesday afternoon. Carter left for Chicago last Monday to begin work for the Chicago Bridge company. It is reported that the bad weather has interfered greatly with Prof. Blake's experiments with his electrical signals. Armor has not been to school this week on account of a sprained ankle received in last Saturday's game. Adelphic. The Adelphic held its regular session last Friday evening. On account of the absence of the participants in the literary part of the program, some time was devoted to extemporaneous speaking. The question as to whether science or literature has the greater influence in disciplining the mind was well discussed: the affirmative by Scott and McCrosky, the negative by Engle and Cann. The literary part of the program for the next meeting is to be entirely devoted to Holmes. His biography is to be given by Miss Henrichs, a discussion of his poetry by Miss Morgan, and of his prose by Prof. Hopkins. All members are to respond to roll call with quotations from his writings. The question, "Should an educational qualification for voting be adopted in this country?" is to be affirmed by Miss Whitman and Mr. Clair, and denied by Miss Williams and Mr. E.G. Simpson. Language Conference. At the last session of the Language Conference the following persons were elected to membership; Misses Rohe, Towne, Haskeil and Parry. and Messrs Price and Messenger. Mr. Bates read a very interesting and well written paper upon "The Pheloctetes of Sophocles." Prof. Carruth spoke upon "English Parallels to German Constructions. He showed by numerous examples that in the order of the parts of the sentence and of the phrase, and in the use of prefixes and compound words that the English Language is even more arbitrary than the German. Though of little practical value, this knowledge may be of some comfort to a student of the German Language. Miss Anderson and Messrs. Price and Messenger were appointed as an auxiliary to the program committee for the purpose of arranging for a pronunciation match which is soon to be one of the attractive features of the conference program.

The plan is to have each of the four classes in the University hold a preliminary contest and choose the best ten members to represent it in final contest.

Through the kindness of Schaum & Henshaw, The University Book Store, and Tracy Learnard valuable prizes will be offered to the winners. One will be Webster's International Dictionary.

A Pale Gray Donkey of Damascus, scorning a well-filled manger of corn and oats, slipped his halter to roam over the arid desert, where he found among the hot sands and burning rocks a scanty crop of thistles: and on the third day he perished. The moral of this is: Don't Be a Pale Gray Donkey. Don't wander away from home without going over the ever popular SANTA FE ROUTE. The Santa Fe has lines in 15 States and Territories. It always gets there carefully and on time; and, considering all things, is cheaper than other roads. Don't persuade yourself that any other way is satisfactory; especially if figuring on a trp to CHICAGO and East. The Santa Fe is the shortest line by 30 miles between Kansas City and Chicago, and has few crossings at grade. Its vestibuled flyers are beauties. Two of them leave Kansas City every evening.

EDITORIAL INASMUCH as this is our Thanksgiving number we suppose it is eminently fitting that we should try to tell why we are thankful. As students of the University we are grateful for the increasing prosperity of the institution, for its new buildings-furnishing improved facilities for work,-for its large attendance,and for its promising future. The condition of athletics in the University, too, affords occasion for self-congratulation. The financial condition of the Association is good, there is a healthy interest manifested by the students, and, although our foot-ball team has not the "Never Defeated" record for which we hoped, it has played in a manner of which we need not be ashamed. Though defeated, our team has kept entirely free from all professionalism, the ultimate ruin of college athletics. As the STUDENTS JOURNAL we are thankful for the support and encouragement we have received; for the degree of success, slight though it be, that we have achieved in striving to truly represent the students and the University: for our handsome new cover: and for being permitted by the Fates to win the original distinction of issuing a Thanksgiving number without mentioning the name or publishing the picture of that fowl so justly popular, but so overburdened with a load of song and story, at this season of the year. THE reception given the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. by Mrs. Haskell illustrated quite forcibly the lack of acquaintance between the students of different classes and of different social cliques in the University. It also showed how much could be done to overcome this lack by means of receptions. Social life in the University, being left almost entirely to the management of students, has naturally found its expression in gatherings of different distinct bodies of students, as must come about when a school has so many students that all cannot conveniently be entertained at one time and place. The objection to these cliques, however, is that they become narrow and self-sufficient, not knowing or caring to know persons not in their own circle. Thus they break up the unity of feeling for the University, and, forgetting the solidarity of interest of the The image provided does not contain any text or content. It appears to be a blank or empty space with no visible details. 6 THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. students, sometimes work for the selfish interests of their own fraternity club, or social circle (for we by no means intend that this shall apply to fraternities alone) against the interests of the whole student body. We would not wish, however, that these smaller associations within the University should be broken up. Such a plan would be undesirable as well as impossible of execution: for these associations are, to some extent at least, founded upon natural distinctions. But what we do wish is, that the smaller associations would constantly remember that they are but parts of the whole. In order to make every one remember this, the usual social lines are there obliterated and only the one distinction, that of being a University student, remembered. The Chans cellor's reception has a tendency in th direction, but it is not enough. We suggested in these columns, a few weeks ago, the plan of having a Thanksgiving or Christmas reception given by the Seniors to the whole school. This would be a great help toward the desired end. The members of the faculty, also could do much if they would, and the fraternies and barbs might assist in the social unification of the students by following the example of the Betas. The Baker Beacon of the 20th takes up an imaginary gauntlet which it thinks it finds in the statements of "K. U. papers" in regard to the professionalism of the Ottawa team. Why Baker is hit by these statements we do not understand. However, the Beacon seems to wish to wear the shoe. The Beacon cannot understand why the players who went from Baker to Ottawa should be called professionals! After suggesting what no sane man could possibly believe were the reasons for calling the Ottawa team professional, the Beacon says: "It surely cannot be pay that makes them professionals." Oh, no, certainly not! The Beacon does not seem to know that K. U. papers are by no means the only ones which have commented upon Ottawa's professionalism. We always feel badly when typographical errors appear in our columns, but last week the "intelligent compositor" 'brought our grey hairs in sorrow almost to the grave by making us say: "The Language Conference has arranged for a Pharmacy contest." where we had written "Pronunciation contest." The reason that the error was not corrected by our proof-reader is, that he had to go to class and entrusted the reading of a part of the proof to another "intelligent compositor." To make amends for the error we beg the pardon of the Language Conference, of the Pharmacy School, and of each and every person who is, or even feels himself to be aggrived. In our last issue we mentioned the need of some stimulus to literary production in Kansas University. Since that editorial was written news has come showing that some friends of the University have felt this need and resolved to supply the required stimulus. These friends are people residing in New York, who formerly resided in Lawrence—some of them were University students, but they have formed a club only, not not an alumni association as was reported—and the prize of twenty-five dollars which they offer for "the best essay on English Literature, or on a topic intimately associated therewith, or on some tradition of the mother-tongue" is as Mr. Barteaux states in his letter, "only a beginning." Mr. Barteaux, who was formerly a student here, is now, by the bye, a proof-reader for Harper Brothers. The committee, consisting of Chancellor Snow, Messrs. B. W. Woodward and C. S. Gleed, which is charged with awarding this prize is an excellent one. We would suggest that perhaps they might, with benefit to all concerned, so manage the contest for the prize as to encourage and improve the literary publications of the University as well as to stimulate literary production. It is hardly necessary for us to call the attention of our readers to the handsome new design upon our front cover, for it speaks for itself. It also speaks volumes for the artistic ability of its originator, Alfred Houghton Clark. Professor of Drawing and Painting, who designed it especially for us. AGAIN our foot-ball team has been defeated, and this time the defeat comes from a quarter whence least expected. The Nebraskans played well; they were especially good in interference; Flippin was at his best. On the other hand, it cannot be denied that though in good condition our boys did not, for some reason, play the game THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. 7 that other contests this fall have proved them capable of playing. There was a conspicuous lack of vim and snap throughout, and anything approaching brilliant plays was absent. ___ In our news columns we give a report of the proceedings at the mass meeting to take action in regard to a University pin. But the students should not for a moment think that they are relieved of all responsibility in the affair by the selection of a committee. This committee is but an instrument created to manage the matter for the students, and as such it wishes the hearty support and co-operation of every student. ATHLETICS NEBRASKA 12, KANSAS 6. Another game has been played. One more defeat has been scored against K. S. U. The foot-ball boys have worked hard this year, and with good effect individually, but the team, as a whole, has had to contend against adverse circumstances. At no time since the second game with Ottawa has K. U. been able to muster her entire eleven on the field. In the game with Iowa, three substitutes were played. In the Ann Arbor game, four substitutes were played. In Saturday's game with Nebraska, not only were there three substitutes on the team, but of the regular players, Stone was still afflicted with a weak shoulder and Steinberger, ordinarily the swiftest footed man on the team, was hampered by an ankle that persisted in remaining stiff. In the last three games the 'Varsity has had to dispense with the generalship of Captain Williamson, who has been on intimate terms with the foot-ball hospital for some time. By the statement of these facts, the STUDENTS JOURNAL does not wish to take from Nebraska her full credit in winning from K. U. Nebraska won the game and won it fairly. Gentlemanly players compose her team and they put up a hard honorable game, out-playing the home boys at nearly every point. The Nebraska line was impregnable; the interference was immense; but Flippin's work back of the line was the feature of the game. As has been said before in these columns, he is the star half-back of the league. With the possible exception of "Ugly" Taylor, he is the best half ever seen on McCook field. Certainly. among amateurs, he has no rival in the west. His line-bucking was magnificent. Whenever three downs were called, Flippin could always be relied upon to make the necessary gain. It is due the rest of the eleven to say that Flippin received most excellent support. The team worked together as a unit. The thorough training undergone during the two weeks just preceding the game was evident. The STUDENTS JOURNAL wishes to congratulate "Jimmie" Canfield's boys. There was some delay in agreeing upon the men who were to have charge of the game, but at about 4 o'clock Mr. Robinson was selected as referee, Mr. Young as umpire, and Judge Lawson as lineman, all Missouri gentlemen. The two teams then lined up as follows: KANSAS. POSITION NEBRASKA. Steinberger...l. e. r...Cameron Pope...l. t. r...(Capt.) Dern Moody...l. g. r...Jones Stone...c...Hammang Griffiths...r. g. l...Wilson Harris...r. t. l...Oury Foster...r. e. l...Whipple Hill, (Capt.)...qr...Spooner Shellenbarger...l. h. r...Yont Wilson...r. h. l...Flippin Hester...f. b...Fair Nebraska won the toss and chose the east goal, giving Kansas the ball. On the kickoff, Hester sent the ball down the field thirty-five yards. A Nebraska player secured it, but was promptly downed by Wilson. On the next play, Nebraska fumbled and K. U. captured the ball. Hester went five yards through the center, Wilson took the ball around the right end for three yards, Hester bucked the line for seven yards, Wilson repeated the play for three yards. Wilson tried the same play again but for no gain, and Nebraska got the ball on downs. The ball was now on the goal line, but it did not stay there long. Flippin with a mighty rush threw himself against the Kansas line until it cracked, crumbled and went to pieces, letting him through for eight yards. Flippin took the ball again but this time fumbled. Shellenbarger leaped over the Nebraska line, secured the pigskin and touched it down behind the goal posts. Shellenbarger kicked an easy goal and the score was Kansas 6, Nebraska 0. Time of actual play, four minutes. On the next kick-off, Fair, for Nebraska, sent the ball thirty yards, but it landed in Shelley's arms and he recovered five yards. 00 THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. Shellenbarger went around right end for ten yards. A fumble gave the ball to Nebraska and ten yards gain. Yont attempted to go around left end, but Steinberger tackled him back of the line. Flippin went through left guard for seven yards and around right end for three more. Yont tried to go throught left tackle, but concluded not to do it when he ran up against Pope. Yont went through right tackle for six yards and bucked the center for five more. Flippin made a good gain around right end and Fair took the ball over the line for a touchdown. Fair missed an easy goal. Five minutes more had been played and the score was 6 to 4 in favor of K. U. It was now K. U's ball at the center of the field. Hester kicked to the ten yard line. Yont attempted to go around left end, but Hill broke through the line and tackled him, losing Nebraska one yard. Flippin could only make two yards around left end, and Kansas was holding the Nebraskans so well that it looked very much like another touchdown. Captain Dern thought so too and signaled for a punt. Fair punted twenty yards and Hill caught the ball. Wilson went ten yards around right end, but Cameron got the ball on a fumble. Yont went through the line for two yards. Then Flippin hurled himself against the line. It gave way and let him through. Several men were clinging to him, but he went thirty yards before he was effectually stopped by Shelly. K. U. then took a brace and held the line, but Fair again punted twenty-five yards. Hill caught the ball, but was downed before he could advance it. K. U. tried the line but could make little impression. Hester punted thirty yards. Fair caught the ball but was successfully tackled by Foster. Yont gained ten yards. Flippin took the pigskin and was going to do something, but before he could determine just what. Hill had come around the Nebraska line and tackled him just above the knees, bringing him forcibly to the ground with a loss of four yards. This was the finest tackle made during the game. Fair then punted twenty-five yards. Hester caught the ball, carried it back six yards and then punted forty-five more. Flippin took the ball five yards through the line and then occurred a very pretty crisscross. The quarter-back passed the ball to Flippin, who in turn slipped it to Yont. While the K. U. boys were trying to get at Flippin, Yont paste1 swiftly around left end for thirty-five yards. Nebraska then bucked the line successfully for short gains. Flippin made twenty yards around right end and Yont carried the ball fifteen yards securing the second touchdown for Nebraska. Fair failed to kick goal, leaving the score 8 to 6. The remaining few minutes of the first half were hotly contested, but no further points were made by either side and the half closed with the ball in the center of the field. The second half opened well for K. U. Pope caught Fair's kick for thirty-five yards and carried the ball back fifteen yards. Pope gained ten more through right tackle. Foster made five yards around left end. Hester punted thirty-five yards. Flippin and Yont each advanced the ball and Fair punted twenty-five yards. Hester took the ball back seven yards. Steinberger went around right end for thirty yards and probably would have got through for a touchdown had he been in condition to dodge. Pope, Shelly, Wilson and Hester, each bucked the line for good gains, but the ball was lost to Nebraska on a fumble. Flippin and Yont bucked the line for long gains and Cameron went fifteen yards around left end. K. U. rallied and held the line firm and Fair punted twenty-five yards. Hester and Foster made good gains. Stone broke his collar bone in a scrimmage and was compelled to leave the field. Walker took his place at center. Everybody must admire Stone's pluck. He walked off of the field so coolly, no one would have suspected that he was hurt but for his pale face. From this time on, the Kansans could do nothing against the sturdy Bug Eaters. Flippin, Yont, Dern and Cameron each advanced the ball, and Flippin took it over the line a few minutes before time was called. Fair failed a difficult goal, making the total score, Nebraska 12, K. U.6. FOOT-BALL ECHOES. If worse comes to worst, we can all go down to Baker and take lessons in mumble-de-peg. The roosters in our hats are not very perceptible now,but just wait till next year. In the Omaha foot-ball team, which was recently defeated by Nebraska University, there is a bald-headed player. He doubtless believes in foot-ball as a hair tonic. In the Beta team—Golden rule of foot-ball: Do your opponent before he does you. THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. 9 --- Ottawa girl—"I think it's just real mean that "Shorty" Hamill's music lessons don't come on Monday-there now." The Harvard-Pennsylvania game takes place November 29th. It promises to be the hardest fought of this season's gridiron contests. Nebraska defeated Ottawa, 6 to 0, which goes to show that some members of the latter eleven are better musicians than they are foot ball players. "The result of the Ottawa-Nebraska game is good evidence that Gen. Toomey has not yet recovered from his attempt to sing at a recent Baldwin Methodist church festival. The Missouri Tigers defeated the Hawkeyes, 32 to 6. Iowa barely averted a shutout, her one touchdown being secured on a fluke. This will make the Thanksgiving game with K. U. a decisive one for the Tigers. If Missouri should lose that game, it would mean a tie with Nebraska, for the latter is certain to win from Iowa. If the tie should ever be played off, we predict that the Nebraska boys will walk off with the pennant. If we have not done anything else this year, we have at least learned one valuable lesson, that is: Never again to play a professional foot-ball team. There is nothing to be gained by it and it injures our amateur standing. All our defeats this year may be traced to one source—the game October 27th with the Baker-Ottawa professionals. There was no excuse for the game, except a false deference to public opinion which seemed to demand that the 'Varsity match itself in foot-ball against a paid team collected from the best foot-ball material in the West. Ottawa had already been defeated by a score that unmistakably showed her inferiority! $350 and her reputation was all it cost Ottawa to retrieve herself. Kansas University generously tendered her services for nothing. The result was a tie game that satisfied no one, but left the 'Varsity in a deplorable condition. Kansas University refuses to countenance professionalism in her own team; she should demand the same good faith before scheduling games with other universities. The October Quarterly. "We hate to beaten but we hate worse to have every one in town blaming us when we did all we could."-One of the eleven. The Kansas University Quarterly for October, lately issued, makes a very creditable showing for the school. Professor Newson contributes "On the Hessian, Jacobian, Steinerian, Etc., in Geometry of One Dimension." Professor Murphy treats of "Irrigation along the Arkansas in Western Kansas." This article is fully up to date and thoroughly reliable, as the information upon which it is based was obtained by a trip through that region in July last Besides describing the various large irrigation systems, the professor has something to say of irrigation by use of windmills and of the under-flow in the valley. H. W. Menke contributes a carefully compiled "List of the Birds of Finney County," May H. Wellman has "A Study of the Prothorax of Butterfies" and W. A.

Arnold Emch contributes "On a Special Class of Connected Surfaces." The last article is "Foreign Settlements in Kansas" by Professor Carruth. This is the continuation of an article in a previous number of the Quarterly and is illustrated with a map of the state, showing at a glance the locations of these settlements. Y.

STUDY WINDOW UNCLE DICK'S THANKSGIVING Uncle Dick was not my uncle; he was nobody's uncle so far as I know. But he was known as "Uncle Dick" to every one in the little town in which he lived, and in this way had a great many nephews and nices. Uncle Dick was a little man; he was under the average height: and he was old, quite old. But he was the most energetic man in town. There was never a day when he was not upon the streets, either taking a walk or dropping in to see his friends; and as he made these visits systematically, we could tell when to expect him. I was Uncle Dick's next-door neighbor, but for no such reason as that did he omit the formality of a call. Every Thursday I expected him and he always came. Whenever I saw Uncle Dick coming through the gate, I would pull a big,easy, rocking chair up before the front window; for Uncle Dick always liked an easy chair, and always wished to sit in front of the window. Then, as I opened the door, he would come in smiling, and lay aside his hat. "Might get bald, you know," he would alwas say: it was one of his standard jokes and I never failed to laugh at it, although he repeated it every time he came. He would sit down then in his customary seat and the conversation would begin. It was a queer kind of conversation, for Uncle Dick did not believe in using any more words than were absolutely necessary to make himself understood. He looked so funny, sitting in the great big arm chair! He was so short that when he rocked backwards, his feet did not reach the floor. He had a great mass of hair, through which he used to run his fingers, making it stand on end like the quills of a porcupine. This was his way of entertaining the children of his acquaintance. He had a queer little beard—not upon his chin "where the beard ought to grow," but just underneath it. His face was clean-shaven, and his mouth showed two rows of exquisitly white teeth—they were false. When he talked, Uncle Dick opened and closed his mouth in such a way as to give to his beard a decided up and down movement. It was a most emphatic beard! After he had seated himself, Uncle Dick would place his elbows on the two arms of the chair, and bring his hands together until his fingers touched, tip to tip. Then he would begin to rock, keeping this position thought his entire stay. "Fine day, this." he almost always opened the conversation with. And then the lips were pursed and the beard thrust forward, and Uncle Dick cared very little whether I answered him or not. "And how are you?" I would ask, if he failed to find anything more to say. "Well, quite well," was always the answer in the same short manner. In this way his visit was passed. He rarely stayed longer than twenty minutes, and sometimes, he would say scarcely anything during that time. I was usually sewing, and I continued my work, while Uncle Dick sat rocking and looking out of the window. But at the end of his twenty minutes, he would jump up. "Must be off-'nother call to make." and off he was. trotting down the street at a rapid rate. Uncle Dick seemed to be very happy. You would never guess, to see him walk quickly along, or stop to give a friendly shake of the hand to some friend who was passing, that he was bearing a heavy burden of grief. Indeed, his cheerfulness was a constant surprise to his acquaintances knowing as they did the sorrow that he had to bear. One year before the opening of this story, Uncle Dick's wife had died, and Uncle Dick wa then left entirely alone in the world, for he had no children. For this fact, and because he was most devoted to his wife, his loss was doubly hard. Uncle Dick and his wife had lived next door to me for twenty years and were the happiest couple I have ever known. Uncle Dick was very handy about the kitchen and always helped in their small household tasks; he could wipe dishes as well as any girl. It was a very pleasing sight to see him rubbing the plates, and keeping time to his movements by whistling. Sometimes too he would get so lively as to perform a jig upon the kitchen floor to the infinite despair of his little wife. But that was in his younger days; it was later that he began his system of calls. Uncle Dick's wife was a wee little woman, of rather delicate health, and very dainty ways. As she grew older, she became quite feeble, and was forced to spend a portion of every day in bed. Uncle Dick was of too THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. 11 sociable a nature ever to enjoy much of his own company, and so, while his wife was taking her daily nap, he would run out and see his friends, and then he would always have some bright and interesting news to carry back to her. But death is no respecter of persons. He stalked into Uncle Dick's home and stretched out his long bony hands for Uncle Dick's greatest treasure. Uncle Dick sought to ward him off, he tried to keep between him and the little woman whose life was closely linked to his own: but in vain, she was snatched out of his embracing arms. It was a critical moment for Uncle Dick. All his friends felt that his life must be wrecked from now on: that his affectionate heart could not long endure grief. For the first few hours, indeed he seemed stunned by the blow: but after that he rallied all his strength and went about the house, seeing that everything was done in a manner that his wife could not have failed to approve. He did not care to talk. When he found nothing more to do, he went into a room by himself, and paced up and down incessantly for several hours. He was thinking very hard. I did not cease to feel anxious about Uncle Dick until after the funeral. The next day he came in to see me. It was pitiful, and yet it brought me great relief, to see him trying to call up his usual cheerful manner. He told me in a few short sentences that his wife would want him to go in the same old way, and to be cheerful and so he was going to do it. And he kept his word. Never after that day did any one see him gloomy or depressed: he had always the same bright, cheerful manner. No one knew, of course, what happened to him within the privacy of his own home; but he kept up his round of calls and in them, though he was silent, he was never morose. As years rolled by and Uncle Dick was still the same busy little man. He continued to live by himself, and all the necessary housework himself, and kept his little home as neat as his wife had kept it. He was often invited out to dinner, but only rarely would he go. "Can't leave the house alone," he used to say, with a comical assumption of matronly dignity. As Thanksgiving day drew near, I began to plan to have Uncle Dick spend it with us. I knew it would be a sorrowful day for him, because it was the the anniversary of his wife's death: and I was afraid his courage would break down if he were left to himself. But when I asked him he responded with a frank but cheerful refusal of my invitation. "Going to have a Thanksging myself!" "But, Uncle Dick, it isn't worth while to get a Thanksgiving dinner just for one person." I answered remonstrating with him. Then he turned upon me with such a solemn, earnest look that I dared not say anything more. "Can't do it; can't do it." But in a moment his old cheerfulness had returned and he added, as he went away: "Things all ordered." I felt considerably worried about Uncle Dick, but at the same time I was curious to know what he was going to do as I saw extra provisions carried in, and Thanksgiving morning I could hear Uncle Dick bustling about the kitchen. A thousand fantastic thoughts began to torment me. I felt sure that something was going to happen to him. Could it be possible that he would commit suicide? Of course it was a ridiculous idea! But I fancied I knew better than any one else how intensely he had suffered during the last year, and I thought I had seen him growing weak under it. I knew, to, that his cheerfulness was merely perfunctory; that his heart was broken, and that he was living on only in the hope that soon death would come for him, too. I tried not to give myself up to such thoughts, but by the time our dinner was over I felt their force so keenly that I could not forbear running in to see how he was fixing up a dainty little dish by way of an excuse. I went over and rapped at the dining-room door. I heard no response to my rap, and, after listening a few moments for some noise within, I quietly opened the door and looked in. The room was in perfect order, the table was not only set, but had on it as nice a dinner as any one could wish. Uncle Dick was there too, sitting in his accustomed place, and there was another place fixed at the other end of the table. Uncle Dick was sitting perfectly still his hands clasped upon the table, his eyes closed. Evidently he had not heard me. My heart leaped with a foolish bound: was he dead? No. for in a mo- --- 12 THE STUDENTS JOURNAL The LAWRENGE BUSINESS COLLEGE LAWRENCE NATIONAL BANK BUILDING LAWRENCE, KANSAS. Established in 1869. Oldest in the state.

About twenty minutes later hearing him moving about his kitchen, I went over again. He was putting away the remains of his scarcely touched Thanksgiving dinner, and was whistling in the most vigorous manner. "Fine dinner that," he said briskly, pointing to what still remained on the table. Ah, never need any one fear for Uncle Dick! While there is life in his body, he will never succumb to useless moping! I went back home, greatly relieved, and never since that day have I found occasion to worry about Uncle Dick. LOCALS. Chancellor's Reception. The annual reception of the Chancellor to the students and members of the faculty of the University will be held in Spooner Library Hall, Friday evening, December 7th. The reception has been necessarily postponed until this time by reason of the delay in the arrangements for the lighting of the building. This will be the formal opening of the Library Hall. All students and members of the faculty are cordially invited to be present. Economie Seminary. At the regular meeting of the Seminary on the 19th inst. J. H. Engle summarized a couple of interesting articles in recent numbers of the Fortnightly Review on the conditions of European laborers, and the experiments with government life insurance in Germany. Other members, who were to have reported, were absent. The program for the meeting of the 26th was as follows. Review of Benjamin Kidd's "Social Evolution," by Professor Blackmar, Report or current economic literature, by B. B. McCall and miscellaneous reports and discussion. Dr. Morrison, a missionary to India, led chapel Tuesday morning. Logan is personally acquainted with the Sylvan Grove bank robbers. Dr. William's Bible class will not meet on Thursday night on account of the Thanksgiving holidays. Piatt suggests that the proper design for a K. U. pin is a brownie holding in his hands a five dollar gold piece. E. C. Ludlum's father, A. Lublum, superintendent of the McPherson schools, visited him last week. Several of the Nebraskans visited the University on the Monday morning after the game. Flippan was one of them. The Glee and Banjo clubs are said to be better this year than ever before. The tenor, which has usually been the weakest part, is very strong. According to the Courier of the University of Pennsylvania, the Princeton "Tiger" is disgusted with the school, and is seeking employment with Hagenbeck. The electric lighting fixtures for Spooner Library have arrived and are being put in place. They have been very much needed for some time, and are as beatiful as they are useful. Gomer Thomas has re-introduced the custom of wearing black court plaster to heighten the complexion. The effect is so striking that a great many of the students will doubtless take up this fad. Last Sunday's meeting of the University Young Men's Christian Association was in charge of the delegates who went to the State Convention at Ottawa. They gave short reports of some of the more prominent features of the convention. THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. 13 There was a meeting of the Faculty of the Engineering school Monday. Miss Galloo's beginning French class is now reading in Super's French Reader Wm. H. H. Piatt is out making dates for the Glee club trip during the Holidays. On Saturday the Thetas had an open meeting at which Mr. Carruth read a paper. Todd was sent as a representative of the Political Economy class, to the Irrigation Convention at Hutchinson. Some of the entomology students have become so familiar with the various bugs that they call them by their given names. If you see a student carrying a sack from which mournful "yowls" proceed,you may be sure that he is a member of the anatomy class. Chancellor Snow, Professor Williston and Professor Haworth all left for Hutchinson Friday morning to attend the irrigation convention. Five students of the Kansas Medical College were arrested Friday morning charged with grave robbing. One of the robbers is reported to be a Lawrence man. The Chrystalography class has among its members, two who are over fifty years of age. One who entered last week was heard to remark that he had not been to school since the year 1860. It is reported that some of the students of Haskell Institute who visited the University a few days ago, wore the Theta colors. What does this mean? Has a chapter been established at the Institute? In a letter written to one of his friends Jim May gives a very vivid account of the University of Pennsylvania and Princeton foot-ball game. He seems not to have lost interest in athletics since leaving K. U. Last Friday evening Dr. and Mrs. A. W. Wilcox were at home to the social committees of the Y.M. and Y.W.C.A.A very pleasant evening was spent in a social way. Plans were considered for the social work among the associations The Senior committee on class-day exercises met last Thursday, but owing to the absence of some members' nothing was done further than to arrange for a regular weekly meeting of the committee every Thursday at twelve o'clock in room 11. Kasana is at Leland Stanford this year. He is trying them all. The investigations of the U.-S. consuls in Africa in regard to the kola nut, which the natives use to prepare themselves for severe and prolonged physical exertion, are being followed with much interest by the football management. Some have wondered why the Kansas City Times was so unfair toward K. U. in its account of the Kansas-Michigan foot-ball game. Perhaps it was because our coach refused to give away the plays of our team to the Times reporter, who then tried to vent his splen by an unfair report. The first inter-class "rush" occurred last Friday, when a burly Sophomore, whose name we withhold by request, attempted to ornament one of his pedal extremities with the Freshman colors. Several Freshries forcibly objected and the presumptuous Soph now wears a sore head instead of the colors. At a meeting of the University Faculty last week it was decided that after the present school year students would be allowed to take their studies in any department so long as there were no more than four studies taken under one professor. In other words that that the present system of majors should be abolished. In a letter received too late for publication in full, J. V. May says: "May the Missouri 'Tigers' meet the fate of their eastern brethren, whose name and colors they have adopted." He also gives a yell that was used in the Pennsylvania-Princeton game: "Oh me! Oh my! How we'll black the Tiger's eye!" and adds: "It was very effective. Try it on M. S. U." Adelphic. The Adelphic will meet as usual next Friday evening. The literary program to be rendered is as follows: Recitation, Mr. Lowder; essay, Mr. Sears; selection, Mr. Emley; essay, Mr. Cheadle: speech,Mr. Gates; and optional production,Mr. Engle. The question: Should the United States Army be increased? will be affirmed by Messrs. Howard and Cann and denied by Messrs. Gladfelter and Madden. The society meets in Adelphic hall and begins promptly at 7:30 o'clock. All interested in literary work are cordially invited This image is too blurry to accurately recognize any text.

Notes from Chemistry Building. The class in chemical physics began work last week, under Prof. Franklin. Mr. Cady is quizzing the Jr. pharmacy class twice a week, upon their work in qualitative analysis. The class is very large this year, requiring all the space in the chemical laboratory. Professor Sayre is kept very busy nowadays explaining the mysteries of physiological chemistry to a large class. Professor Bailey returned Monday from a trip to the gas and oil region in the southeastern part of the state. He went to obtain specimens of natural gas for the purpose of analysis. Mr. Leighton is experimenting with a new test, for the detection of arsenic to determine its value when arsenic occurs with tin and antimony. The chemistry department unpacked some new supplies the first of the week. At the meeting of the Chemical and Minerological Seminary Thursday, Nov. 15th, Mr. Dickinson gave an account of some interesting experiments with liquid and solid carbonic anhydride and with the assistance of Prof. Franklin, performed some of the experiments. Mr. Templin gave an abstract of Lord Salisbury's address before the British Association for the Advancement of Science. The Kansas Academy of Science will hold its 27th annual meeting at Manhattan Dec. 27th and 29th inclusive. The president, Professor Sayre, will deliver an address upon the subject: "Some Interesting Characteristics os Medicinal Plants." Music Hall Echoes. Our student's recital given last Wednesday was as usual quite a success. Mrs. Crane, a friend of Prof. Preyer's, the possessor of a very lovely voice, kindly assisted. In addition we had a violin solo by Prof. Farrell but with these two exceptions the students rendered a somewhat difficult program in a very creditable manner. We could wish for a larger audience from outside at these Wednesday afternoon recitals. It has been wisely suggested that on recital afternoons the regular weekly Seminary be held in the evening in order that we may begin and close earlier. This will make it more convenient for all concerned. There are some faint murmurs heard about an exhibition of pictures. Nothing whatever of a definite nature is known as yet, but the very thought of such a thing cannot but be of great interest not only to the art students,but to the School of Fine Arts in general. There is to be a Physical Culture Exhibition given by Mrs. Clark's pupils before long. The class at Music Hall will take part in the exercises of Indian Club Swing ing. There has been quite an improvement in the promptness with which some of the classes are conducted since that clock in the Pianoforte Department sends its warning tones through the wall. We think though we could be even more prompt if we had one that rang in all the rooms. The Faculty Concert took place last evening. This is much better than Wednesday evening, as it enables those who are going home for Thanksgiving to attend. Pronunciation Match. Monday night following Thanksgiving Mr. Sievking will give a concert at Music Hall. The classes of the School of Arts have been busy during the week electing captains and making arrangements for the preliminary contests to be held soon. The Sophomores have distinguished themselves by electing two lady members of the Faculty to be their champions. The rivalry between the captains to make a good showing for their classes in the final contest promises to be one of the most interesting features of the undertaking. The elements of class pride and individual ambition are both likely to figure in the result. The students who are indifferent to the advantages offered by this contest are, it is to be hoped, very few. Those who use their spare moments to the best advantage in preparing for the test are most likely to succeed, but surely no one can lose the benefits of training whether successful in the finish or not. The Adams' Gift. Miss Watson has received from Charles Francis Adams, who is a grandson of John Quincy Adams, a box of books. Among the books received are a number bearing the the bood plate of John Quincy Adams, showing that at least a part of these books sent were once owned by him. The books sent are of a miscellaneous character. Mr. Adams also states that he will send more soon. By this gift we see that our library is attracting the attention of friends in the East. Pin Committee Meeting. The Pin Committee chosen at Tuesday's mass meeting met on Saturday morning in the German seminary room in Spooner Library. Several designs have already been handed in, but the committee desires to receive as many designs as possible. For the purpose of encouraging the students to produce original designs the committee decided to offer a prize of five dollars for the design which is finally accepted for the authorized K.U.pin. The only limit is that the prize is not to go to anyone not connected with the University either as a student or instructor. Designs may be handed to any member of the comm ttee. The next meeting of the committee will be held at 10 a.m. in the German seminary room on Saturday, December 8th. THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. 15 UNIVERSITY LECTURE AND MUSICAL COURSE. Change of Date for First Attraction. A few days ago the attention of the management of the University Lecture and Musical Course was called to the fact that the date for the first entertainment of the course. The Moody Male Quartette, which had been booked for Saturday, December 1st, fell during the Thanksgiving vacation, and would in consequence prevent a large number of the students, who would be out of the city at that time, from attending. We are glad to be able to announce now, however, that the date has been changed to Wednesday, December 5th, which is better for everybody concerned. This organization comes very highly recommended, and is a fitting opening for the Course. Those who have not yet purchased Course tickets should do so at once. Many times, during the season, outside entertainments of a similar character to those included in the Course, will be presented to the Lawrence public, and in a majority of of these instances, arrangements will be made so that holders of University Lecture Course tickets will be entitled to an especially low price of admission. The last one hundred tickets are now selling. Language Conference. The meeting of the Language Conference last Friday afternoon was very pleasantly entertained by Professor D. H. Robinson on "Woman's Rights in Ancient Rome." Prof. Robinson said this did not mean Female Suffrage for that panacea of woman's woes is a much more recent invention. He then traced the growth of woman's legal rights as wife and daughter through the various periods of Roman history, in a very clear and witty manner. He found that in Rome woman's position before the law was as favorable as it has ever been since. After a short discussion of this paper, John Henderson followed with an effort to prove that Puritan Literature was practically without humor. A discussion followed in which the writer's position was quite warmly assailed. After a brief mention of the late Dr. McCosh, the conference adjourned. K. U. Emblem- The mass meeting for taking action in regard to a University emblem occurred last Tuesday at one o'clock. A committee was chosen, consisting of a representative from each of the five schools of the University and two professors. This committee is to secure designs, estimates of cost, etc., and to report to the students, for final action. The members of the committee are, in order of their election, Messrs. Cone and Cann Miss Bond, Mr Rice, Professors Clark and Carruth, and Miss Galloo. Mr. Rice and Professor Clark represent the School of Engineering and the School of Fine Arts, respectively, and Professor Carruth and Miss Galloo are the faculty members. ENGYGLOPEDIA BRITANNIGA. WHAT EDITION SHALL I BUY? A Complete and Satisfactory Answer Given in the Following Letters From the Most Prominent and Trusted Educators and Professional Men. OFFICE OF SUPT. OF CPTY SCHOOLS, KANSAS CITY, Mo., May 14, 1894. Mr. S. A. Park, Gen, Agent, Kansas City. DEAR SIR: The reasons that induce me to buy a set of "THE STODDART EDITION OF THE BRITANNICA' at this time are as follows: 1. (a) The clear and distinct type in which the work is published, especially the letters and figures referring to charts, diagrams, maps, and plates. (b) The distinctness of the mathematical formulas, including signs, symbols, letters and exponents. 3. The insertion of foot-notes giving much valuable information not found in other Editions of this work. 2. The work as a whole, so far as I have been able to discover, is free from misprints or errors in both text and foot-notes. 4. "The Index" to this edition is the most complete and perfect I have ever seen. It embodies the three excellent features of indexing direct, cross, and analytical. It is handy, convenient, and exhaustive. The work of indexing and arranging the subjects, is one of the merits of this gigantic publication. Very respectfully yours. J.M.GREENWOOD. STATE NORMAL SCHCOL, SECOND DISTRICT. WARRENSBURG Mo., Nov 3 GEO. L. OSBORNE, Pres. For several years past the Stoddart Edition of the Encylopaedia Britannica has been in use in this institution. We consider it the Standard Edition of this important work in this country, and far superior to the cheap reprints now being sold. From Prof. ROBERT EL IS THOMPSON, S. T. D. Pres. Boys' Central High School, Phila. I regard the Ninth Edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica as the best work of its class in the English language, and the American Reprint of it as the best edition for the reasons which follow: 1. The American Reprint gives the full text, illustrations, plates, and maps of the large British edition without omissions or abbreviations. --- 16 THE STUDENTS JOURNAL. 2. It corrects a great number of palpable errors and mis-statements which are to be found in the British edition, generally by a foot-note giving the correct statement. 3. It appends to each of the twenty-four volumes supplementary articles, which supply their deficiencies on the American side, and these are generally the signed work of expert authorities. 4. It is the only edition which supplies an adequate Index to the whole work. The twenty-fifth volume, prepared by Dr. D.O. Kellogg and his co-workers, is the finest piece of work of the kind I have ever seen. Special terms to Students, Teachers and Ministers for month of December. S. A. PARK.

A Pale Gray Donkey of Damascus, scorning a well-filled manger of corn and oats, slipped his halter to roam over the arid desert, where he found among the hot sands and burning rocks a scanty crop of thistles; and on the third day he perished. The moral of this is: Don't Be a Pale Gray Donkey. Don't wander away from home without going over the ever popular SANTA FE ROUTE. The Santa Fe has lines in 15 States and Territories. It always gets there carefully and on time; and, considering all things, is cheaper than other roads. Inquire of Geo. C. BAILEY, Agent at Leis' Drug Store. Don't persuade yourself that any other way is satisfactory; especially if figuring on a trp to CHICAGO and East. The Santa Fe is the shortest line by 30 miles between Kansas City and Chicago, and has few crossings at grade. Its vestibulated flyers are beauties. Two of them leave Kansas City every evening.
