It is said that a really nice girl is not always being "shocked," by the young men. This rule does not apply in the University of Kansas.
THE Kansas University Lawyer made its initial appearance last week. It is gotten up in a very neat manner and reflects great credit upon its editors and does credit to the best law school in the west.
PRESIDENT ELIOT, of Harvard, takes a stand against modern foot-ball in his annual report, declaring that it has degenerated and that its spectators are little better than those who attend prize fights.
We see by the papers that the Yale faculty has prohibited the freshman class from playing ball this spring. If our faculty would take such an action we might be able to get up some interest in class games. The freshmen would probably show up with their nines.
DURING July and August of 1893, Charley Lease, son of the Colonel, held the office of "assistant matron" for the deaf and dumb asylum at Olathe. The school was not in session, and no assistant matron" was needed, but Mrs. Lease worked the game to give him spending money. This seems to be one on the Colonel.-Atchison Globe.
Also one on Charley and one for Pope.
ONE of the best means for culture that can be found in college life is that of social intercourse. The refining influence that comes from the study of ancient literature and from association with the great minds of the present, is very important; the mental drill afforded by mathematics, and the precision acquired by scientific research, are also of great value, but none of these things afford the ease and grace of manners and conversation that polite society justly demands. It is only by actual contact with each other in society that this desirable elegance of action is obtained.-The Farlhamite.
We trust that the students will realize that if we are to have a good ball team at K. U. they must give the men support. This thing of sitting in your room Saturday afternoons when you should be out helping the team win is certainly deplorable. If you have any pride for your University in you, come out and show it. The team will play against the Kansas City team on the 11th This is probably the strongest team in the west, and we cannot expect to win. It will be a good game however and one that you cannot afford to miss. Come out all of you and help the boys put up a good game. Why not organize class teams and have a series of class games. These games could be played Saturday mornings. Interest can be easily worked up if the energetic men in the different classes take hold of the affair and push it. This would tend to bring out class feeling and also stir up an interest in base-ball in the University.

THE UNIVERSITY COURIER.
We want to call the attention of the students to the local debate that is to be held Friday at 8 p. m. in the college chapel. This is something in which we all feel the greatest interest. We want to win from Nebraska and we must do it. The men who are to be selected from the contestants Friday night may be depended upon to do their share. Now we must do ours. Be on hand Friday night to cheer the victors. Let them realize how you feel about the joint debate. Let them know that it makes all the difference in the world whether we win from Nebraska or not. Don't allow yourselves to become passive in this matter. Don't let the spirit that prevails over our oratorical contests enter into this joint debate. Join hands all you "Frats" and "Barbs," "ringsters" and "non-ringsters" and let the right spirit stir you up, so that the position on the joint debate will always be sought after promptly and by the best we have in that line.
In the March Forum Mr. Henry Holt, in the course of a discussion of the pressure put upon the instructors in colleges by politicians, says that the University of Kansas was lately forced to take a professor who will teach, not the accumulated results of economic science, but certain exploded doctrines popular among ignorant politicians. Mr. Holt in this statement did a great injustice to the University of Kansas, and on being informed of his error by Prof. Blackmar he wrote the following apology:
29 WEST TWENTY-THIRD STREET, /
NEW YORK, March 22.1895.
MY DEAR SIR:-I very greatly regret to find that in writing from memory in the March Forum I said in effect that the legislature had forced a professor of exploded economic doctrine on the University of Kansas. I based this statement en information which I still have reason to believe correct, that the board of regents of the State Agricultural School had committed that outrage on the institution under their charge. I extremely regret the confession and beg you accept my apologies for my inadvertance, and trust you will use this letter in any way you see fit.
Very truly yours,
HENRY HOLT.
Professor F. W.Blackmar.

GENERAL ATHLETIC NOTES.
Captain Mitchell had given notice that the applicants to the ball club would be expected to remain in town during the vacation and report for daily practice. This was thought expedient as the inclemency of the weather this spring has greatly interfered with the work. Several of the boys signified their willingness to forego the holidays but the sacrifice was futile as far as practice was concerned. The spirit was willing but the weather was contrary. We have been extremely unfortunate in this respect. It has been exasperating to us to read of the daily practice of the teams in the Northern and Eastern schools, while we are delayed by summer blizzards. Despite the lack of team work the hoys showed up well in practice Tuesday evening. The more ambitious ones have been doing gymnasium work faithfully, and being in good condition, will soon swing into line.
The original list of forty applicants has been well looked over, and each one has been given ample opportunity to demonstrate his ability. The list of available men now numbers about twenty men While we would not discourage any ambitious candidate, it is only justice to mention those of greatest promise. Besides Kelsey, the list of catchers has been reduced to Sneider and Squires, each of whom is doing hard and faithful work In Morgan, a law student, Gear and Waggner have found an excellent assistant. Morgan has speed and a good curve, besides the usual faculty of delivering the ball from either right or left hand, which is extremely annoying to a batter. Mitchell will hold first base, while for second, honors are about even between Alden and Walker. Todd and Williamson have a decided advantage at short and third, respectively. The field now shows up strong with Agnew, Nott, Chamberlain and Waggner, who is a change pitcher The outfield are getting their eye on the ball, and have been doing pretty work. There has been little chance for team work as yet, the practice

being too scattered. The base running is the weakest feature taking the team through and through.
Prof. Cowan is pleased with the prospects, but is anxious to see the boys get down to steady work, so we can have something more definite than prospecting. He said Wednesday, "We have by far the best material that has ever been in the University, but I don't want the boys to play on past reputation. Every man should report for daily practice, and the team will be made up by the showing in practice."
On Thursday, the 11th, the first of the two games with the Kansas City Blues will be played in Lawrence The result of this game will demonstrate the strength of the team. and a close score with the Blues will do more than any game of the season to advertise the team as well as the individual players. Two preliminary games have been arranged Saturday 6th, with the Indians, and Monday, the 8th, with Ottawa, on the Ottawa grounds.
The management should see that the boys are not hindered for want of materials. Two balls, one with a poor cover, would hardly suffice for a "scrub" game on a rough town lot
Blues vs. K. S. U
On Thursday next at McCook field will be called the first of the two games to be played with the Kansas City Cowboys. There has probably never been a scheduled ball game in the life of K.U. that has created as wide an interest and general comment as this game with the Kansas City professionals Ir is a rare opportunity to see in a town of this size such an aggregation of "sure enough" base ball players, and the fact that they are to battle with our own boys, only adds to the interest.
Manager Manning, of the regular team will be here, and that he will not play any amateurs or substitutes, thus giving the students and people of Lawrence a chance of witnessing the great National game as played by one of the strongest teams in the country. "Smiling Peter" Daniels, whose wonderful curves and good nature have made him a Kansas City favorite, will occupy the box. Captain Jimmie Manning, the fastest base-runner in the Western league, and whose fame is world-wide, will hold down
second base. Big Bill Klusman will play first base. He is one of the most popular ball players in the business, and has the unpleasant habit or knocking the ball over the fence at least once or twice in every game. It is worth the the time and price of admission to hear Tommey Hernon, coach 'em around the bases.
Kelsey and Gear will do the battery work for the University, and great work it will be too. They understand each other perfectly, and will no doubt surprise the boys in blue. The rest of the team will be made up after the games of Saturday and Monday.
OUR CHOP HOUSES
Something About the Boarding Houses of Lawrence.
A round of the various boarding clubs and boarding houses of Lawrence is extremely interesting to the casual observer and the busy student.
Etiquette from the time of King Arthur to that of Jerry Simpson may be seen at these "chop houses." Some of the most interesting customs in vogue are the "Simpsonian grip," the "west Lawrence shove," the "Sigma Nu slide," and the "Beta sop." To give a full description of all these would be difficult, but a few definitions are given herewith:
The "Simpsonian grip" consists in grasping the fork, point downwards, in the left hand, the fingers pressing it firmly. The fork is plunged into the meat, lifted aloft and forced into the mouth. This latter part is similar to that of pushing a boat off a sand bar. The "west Lawrence shove" is to take the fork by the extreme end with the forefinger and thumb. Food is carried to the mouth in a silent, graceful manner, the mouth noiselessly opened and closed—a roll of the eyes and all is over. The 'Sigma Nu slide' is to heap mashed potatoes on a knife to within an inch of the hilt. A graceful swoop carries it to the mouth, and by a dexterous twist of the wrist, the load is deposited on the back of the lower front teeth. A better leverage is obtained by wrapping the lower limbs several times around the chair legs, and accidents in the transference of food is prevented by wearing the napkin capewise.
One of the novel sights at the Hotel Vis-

count is when the "dirty eight" drink the health of the Ladies Boarding club from their sassafras cups.
The "Category Coffee Cooler" has a simple and effective way of pouring the coffee into a saucer and cooling it by blowing on it.
The "Beta sop" consists in navigating a piece of bread through a lake of sorghum or gravy.
At the Ladies Boarding club, on Ohio street, the doors are closed five minutes after meal time. When "chewing time" comes around the ladies all make a rush for the tables and then the great iron doors swing shut." It reminds one of a bargain counter rush in the city.
At all the places mentioned the students appear to be enjoying good health and to possess a large amount of animal spirits. There is one club about which the Courier man has not yet obtained information. It is the Rush club—away up on the hill. If rumors be true, the name must be appropriate to the habits and customs of the habitues.
A Stormy Meeting.
After class Wednesday morning the Senior Law's held a meeting to consider the idea of having the class picture taken. As there were two different plans for the bringing of this about, arguments on the different sides were vehemently put forth in the support of each. Everybody began to talk at once, and the endeavors of the chairman to preserve order were fruitless. In the midst of the uproar the stenitorian tones of Charlie Holliday were heard above the din. The calm and serious mien of the World's Fair Commissioner from Kansas, and member of the Board of Metropolitan Police Commissioners of Topeka, hushed the mighty roar and his words urging unanimity of action were as oil poured on troubled waters. Lamb and Fixer-in-Chief Jimmie Owens became oratorical each in his turn, but when Eli Cann moved to adjourn quiet was again restored.
Our New Paper. (?]
A mass meeting was held Wednesday to adopt the rest of the constitution of the new weekly paper. The attendance was small, due partly to the inconvenient hour and the lack of enthusiasm. The constitution was adopted entirely as originally drafted,the amendments mentioned in last week's
COURIER being voted down. The amendments proposed were ordered posted on the bulletin boards, but for some reason the one providing for the alteration of the principal offices between the barb and frat factions was not put up. It is the opinion of many of the students that as these two factions are here, to make a representative paper. provision should be made for the equitable assignment of officers to each, thus eliminating politics to a great degree from the paper, which only tends to retard its progress. The originators of the new paper seem to think differently, however, and the project failed.

On the evening of March 25th Will Mason entertained the members of the Sigma Chi and a few friends at a "stag" whist party. Elaborate refreshments were served.
After the outstanding debts have been paid there will be a deficit in the treasury of the oratorical association. This is a good argument for its discontinuance.
Stanley Christopher, '97, who was compelled to leave the University during the holidays on account of his health has entered again this term very much improved by his long vacation.
The sporting element of the University, headed by turfman Jacque Morgan, are trying to arrange for a few horse races to be held on field day The project has been frustrated somewhat by the announcement of the town liverymen that they will not rent horses for racing. The committee will probably get around this by importing some thoroughbreds.
On Wednesday night a small party of students were hard at work painting the town green and black. The emblem of the T.N.E. fraternity was painted on the walk in front of the Phi Psi chapter house, the lamp post globe was painted green and black. and large signs were painted on the water tower. It is not known who did it, but Jacque Morgan's shoes had green paint on them Thursday. When questioned about it by a Courier man he observed a dignified silence and shook his head slowly.
Prizes for the Spring Events.
Foster, Troxel and Logan were appointed to solicit prizes for the different events in the coming meet. The committee spent a couple of days in Kansas City, and as Foster is still out it is safe to presume that there will be a fine lot of rewards hung up.
The generous Lawrence and Kansas City merchants have been very liberal in their donations, some of which are of no mean value. Here are a few of them and their doners: Solid Silver Cup, J. C. Altman; Silk Sweater, W.

THE UNIVERSITY COURIER.
These are a few of the number as remembered by one of the committee. We will give the list in full in the next issue.
It is the urgent request of the athletic board that any one caring to participate in any of the contests, indoor or on the field shall hand his name to the manager of the track athletics-Foster. There is still a decided lack of interest, or at least of application for preparation. The events will be called off in about four weeks, which is short enough to get into condition. The board intend making this year's meet the most elaborate and successful of any so far as in its power, but whether or not we hold our own, with the other state universities, whether or not we will have a track team at the the intercollegiate contest, will depend on the individual efforts put forth.
Prof. Cowan will excuse the contestants from gymnasium work He will be on McCook field every evening from four to six, and will assist in the exercises.
NOTES.
Everyone should see the big game with the Blues on Thursday.
Stone is training faithfully for several of the events.
The faculty team has twice been out in full force. It is rumored they are uneasy of their laurels—that they are figuring on working in Dr. Stevens on the Seniors.
Cornell's nine is said to be weak in the outfield, behind the bat, and in batting and base running. We would recommend that they change the name of the game they play or come to Kansas and learn base-ball.
Walter Faller, Knox College, who broke all college records a few weeks ago in throwing the hammer seventy feet, has died from the terrible strain.
The board of Curators of the Missori University has given $10,000 toward building a gymnasium,$2,400 for an instructor,$1,300 to improve the athletic field. Hurrah for the Tiger! We have only a hole in the ground for a gymnasium,but Missouri, they know about us!

W. S. Pope blooms out this week in a card to the Students Journal in which he quotes a few passages from the Bible and other wise sayings. His remarks were directed toward R. R. Mitchell. He claims that certain statements made about him were false and that "his consuming desire would not let him accept certain offices." He also says that he does not consider an oath sacred when the objects for which it was taken, and the means adopted to attain those objects were wrong and corrupting. Pope, it will be remembered, was the man that exposed the secret organization which has held sway here for some time. In other words, he is a disgruntled politician.

OUR CHARLIE
The K. U. politician assuming the role of "Assistant Matron."
While Mrs. Mary E. Lease is out in public life, her husband stays at home and takes care of the children. It would seem that Charlie Lease, the son of Kansas' Joan D'Arc, inherits this same home loving characteristic of his father, for it has lately come to light that he has been drawing pay from the state for his services as Assistant Matron at the Deaf and Dumb asylum at Olathe. Concerning this the Topeka Capital has to say: "Concerning the statement published in the papers that Mrs. Lease's son Charles H. Lease served as Assistant Matron at the Olathe Deaf and Dumb Asylum and received therefore a salary of $12.50 for two months' visit at the institution, Mrs. Lease has a statement from W. T. Yoe, a former Republican member of the State Board of Charities, and from W. H. Carter, who was formerly superintendent of the institution, saying that the young
man was acting as 'visitors' guide and was paid for that work.
Captain J. G. Waters had taken occasion to say that the young man served as assistant matron and he is prepared to prove what he says. In answer to a letter of inquiry addressed to Superintendent Stewart, Mr. Waters yesterday received a communication from the superintendent in which he says that Charles H. Lease was on the pay roll of the institution as "assistant matron" and he drew a salary for services in that position, a fact which is indicated by the books in the office of the State Auditor."

VACATION'S COMIN'.
[Written for the COURIER by F. W. B.]
The grass is gettin' greener an' the spring is gettin' near;
The violets is comin'—though as yet they're mighty dear;
All Nature is a smilin' an' the song bird's melody
From the newly sproutin' branches makes the world more bright to me.
When winter shuts its hand upon the vitals of the year An' sort o' stops the freedom 'at the sunshine gives us here, We sort o' let some feelin' 'gainst it creep aroun' our hearts But we somehow don't feel happy as we thought, when it departs.
Ye remember all the sleighin' an' the skatin' at ye'll miss; How ye shivered as ye lingered at the front gate fer a kiss With the moon a smilin' at ye,—for all Nature bends to love An' the stars winked at each other in the ecstacy above.
How warm the cozy fire in the parlor used to be When the wind-borne snow was flyin' so folks out could hardly see, An' on calmer nights ye took her to the Senior fete An' spent the homeward journey-fixin' up to-morrer's date.
But those days'll soon be ended for vacation's near at hand. An' the students'll be scattered for the summer through the land, An' some among our schoolmates maybe'll travel far from here To a place they won't return from in the autumn of the year.
When we're all a congregatin' in the chapel once again. An' some soft words may be spoken an' some tears may trickle then Betwixt the shouts o' laughter as we meet some last year's friend An' wish with all our fervor college days would never end.

W T. PERRY,
The only kick that we have on Pope's article in last week's Students Journal is that he did not consider us of enough importance to use two l's in spelling our name.
Pope has surely missed his calling again. He should seek a position on the staff of a humorous sheet. His article in the Journal would make men who had not laughed for years fairly "burst out" with merriment.
The new University organization known as The Kansas University Jockey club has started with a great deal of dash. We are looking for an advisory board to be appointed by the faculty to supervise these humane events.
The men in power in the new paper scheme saw fit not to allow the amendment which provided that the officers of Editor-in-chief and managing editor should alternate between the fraternity and non-fraternity men. We do not understand why this action should not be a popular one. Surely one hundred and fifty men, who are organized, and capable of supporting a paper of their own, should receive some attention. It seems as though this paper was a move toward the accomplishment of good results, still the policy of the supporters is certainly based against the element that will give them more help and encouragement than the side that the aid.
The articles in the last issue of the Courier concerning Charlie Lease were certainly out of place in a college paper. We feel that we should have nothing to do with the publication of political lies. We published the articles simply as a good joke on Charlie Lease, and hardly realized the inappropriateness of the selection.
THE Editor of the Journal calls the attention of the faculty to the deplorable condition of Yale College in regard to athletics absorbing the intellectual pursuits. He warns us that if we are not careful we will be winning all contests in the athletic line and our intellectual pursuits will be lessened. If the writer of the article realized how hard it is to get our men out to train for even an hour a day he would not find it necessary to lie awake nights and worry about our running crazy over athletics. We are entirely too much the other way. K. S. U. would be far more healthy and vigorous if a few more of the students would go out on McCook field and let their intellects be shaken a little.
A new species of college smartness, or more appropriately college stupidity has appeared among the students. Tuesday morning an effigy clad in a woman's dress with a man's coat and hat, bearing a placard labeled, "I am Jones" was found hung to an electric light wire on Adams street. just outside of the University campus. It was evidently
2

the intention of the perpetrators of this ungentlemanly deed to represent Professor Jones, assistant in the English department. Comment on such actions is entirely unnecessary as the perpetrators will not only receive the condemnation of the entire University, but if discovered will be summarily delt with.
On the 25th and 25th of May there will be held at Kansas City a field-meet between Nebraska, Missouri and Kansas universities. We are going to send a team of stars. That is we think that there must be some such scheme on foot. If we were not going to do this we should imagine that the track athletic team would probably train. We have had about three weeks of good weather and there has not been a man on the track. This surely is not business. We can just as well do good work at Kansas City as not, if we will but interest ourselves a little in the work. If a man works hard and doesn't win you cannot blame him, but if a man does not work and allows the banner of K. S. U. to be hauled through the dust by his negligence he ought to receive the severest censure.
THE editors of the College Life and Baker Beacon have ceased their Brocken cries at each other, not on grounds of satisfaction. but owing to hoarseness Each editor has been accusing the orator of the other institution of plagerism: The language of their heated articles has not been tempered with either very much christian charity or common delicacy. The "deadly parallels" they have been citing, should have been buried long ago; grave clothes are an uncanny raiment to exhibit before the public. The epitaphs the gentlemen have employed should also have been interred and used as automatic grave warmers.
It has been rumored that the subscription committee of the coming University paper propose to publish the first issue the latter part of this month. Should this report be verified by fact, an injustice would be done, and a breach of faith made with the now exisiting newspaper companies. The paper organizations have conceded to the faculty's and student's wishes, and have agreed to disband at commencement. Should this paper now appear, our advertisement columns would shrink below expense accounts, our circulation maimed, and the contracts that have been made with our publishers and subscribers would necessarily be violated and broken.
THE Jockey & Bike matince, under the auspices of the vetran turf men, Morgan and Larnard. Thursday, was an innovation of the right kind. Such gatherings occuring occasionally are beneficial to the spectators as well as the participants. They give the student a respectable opportunity of witnessing true sport in the manner it should be conducted The offensive features of professionalism are wanting Gambling, games of fortune and their accessories; indecent behavior and the common tricks of the track were never once thought of. The custom is an old one, but is presented under new and inspiring conditions. It gives the boys a chance to try their own talents in a broad field, and an opportunity of satiating their romantic disposition in a perfectly clean sport managed in a clean way.

The Economic debating club met on Tuesday afternoon. The discussion of the day was in the form of a debate on paper money, and some witty remarks were made by the debaters. Misses Lewelling and Loader spoke in favor of coin money, and Messrs. Ingalls and Ewart tried to make their hearers believe that flat money was the best. At this meeting the election of officers was held in which Ingalls was a successful candidate for president. Miss Lewelling was elected vice-president, and Wright secretary.
Economic Seminary.
The Seminary met Monday night and listened to an interesting and instructive discussion of "Over-Development of Railroads in Kansas" by S. S. Brown. Mr. Wright then reported on "The Meaning and Measure of Unemployment" in the Contemporary Review. At the next meeting there will be reports by Messrs. Cone, Bishoff and W. S. Pope.
Prof. Jones in Effigy.
Students who climbed Mount Oread before eight o'clock Tuesday morning saw a peculiar dummy dangling from the electric wires across Adams street, leading to the Library.
The figure was stuffed with hay, and was clothed with a coat, a pair of Ballbriggan trousers and a short skirt. The most amusing fact in connection with it, was that a sign reading: "Little Jones," was fastened on it. The effigy was probably placed there by an enemy or Prof. H. Foster Jones, of the English department. When the image was first seen, it caused no little amusement among the students A number of students were watching it, when Mr. Wilson, driving the K U. wagon, arrived on the scene, and mounting to the seat of the wagon directly under the effigy, he began to sever it from the wire with the use of a pruning pole. Finally "Little Jones" dropped and he hurriedly chucked him into the wagon and Mr. Wilson drove away at a galop.
The affair reminded one of a patrol wagon dashing to the scene and rescuing an unfortunate.
It is not known who the fiends are who perpetrated this practical joke, but it is understood that the faculty council will investigate the matter thoroughly, and some interesting developments promise to appear.
The Passing of the Journal.
After a long period of usefulness the official organ of the Barbs will within a short time cease its career. The announcement that the Students Journal is about to suspend will no doubt be received with regret by the students who have been its supporters. The Journal company has purchased sixty three shares in the new University weekly which has recently been organized. This would seem to indicate that the Barb politician is looking forward in pleasant contemplation to again demonstrate his ability to rake in all the offices in sight.
4 Good Debate.
The local debate, for the choice of debators, to represent the University in the joint debate with Nebraska University, was held last Friday night. On account of the inclement weather the attendance was not as large as might have otherwise been expected. The

winners, in the order of the judges marking were, F. M Brady, T. J. Madden, and John Little These men are all law students. The question debated was; "Resolved that less weight should be given to precedent in judicial decisions. The debate with Nebraska University will occur about a month hence, giving ample time for preparation The same question will be debated. Many of the students are enthusiastic over this coming debate, and the gentlemen who so ably demonstrated their ability Friday night will have the backing of the whole student body in the joint debate. The Nebraska debaters were chosen a month ago and ought to have very thorough preparation.
The Senior Almanac.
The senior class in the School of Arts will print a class almanac. A circular has been distributed among the members on which are printed a great many questions which they must answer in as humorous a manner as possible. The following are some of the questions:
Have you a sweetheart?
To what sophomore or freshman girl would bloomers be most becoming?
Who is the biggest josher in school
Who is the most popular Prof.?
The questions embody about everything one could ask contemplating a witty answer. The familiar sign of the Plymouth Rock trousering company however, was left out.
Whether the originators of this scheme wish to rival the wit and humor columns in the patent insides of some of our country contemporaries, or simply propose this as an innovation to class inventions, has not been ascertained. If the latter they will succeed admirably.
University Derby.
The University Jockey club's first attempt was a great success. Thursday morning the sky was clear, the shower of the previous night having put the track at the Driving Park in perfect condition At ten o'clock the grand stand began to fill and in a short time every seat was taken A long line of vehicles of all descriptions, from the swell trap and gayly decorated tallyho down to a hayrack soon filled all the vacant space near the finish. It was pre eminently a society event. At half-past ten the first race the Lawrence derby was called; the horses unblanqueted and ridden on the track. The jockeys were clad in gymnasium and base-ball suits, and anything else, apparently, that came handy. Loud colors predominated. Starter, Sam Usher, tapped the bell and they were off with a dash. As they neared the wire the bay filley, Dr. Stevens, ridden by the veteran turfman, John Edwards, shot out from the rest and won by a length amid the cheers from the grand stand and the bleachers. Glatheart, on Maid Marion, came in second, and Jack Morgan was given third place having been fouled by Jockey Wagstaff, on Coxey, who was put back and fined fifty dollars by the judges The prizes were the Derby cup (a stein) and a silver match box to second winner. It was during this race that the only accident occured. Morgan, on Senator Morrill, who had the pole pushed so hard on the rains that the bridle came partly off and the saddle turned. Riding bare-back however, being Morgan's long suit, he clung on undaunted The horse was caught by the watchful swipers and "John" was the hero of the day. The Novice bicycle race, $ \frac{1}{2} $ mile, with entries of Motter, C. Fletcher, Sweezy and Thrasher was won by Thrasher in 1.32, Motter second Prizes K. U. cane and one pound of candy Then followed the Selling 2 year-olds 3-16 of a mile dash, won by Glatheart, on Trilby. Time, twenty-one seconds. Edwards was second, Morgan third and Wagstaff fourth. Frost and Stewart tied for fifth place. Prizes: Whitley exerciser and cuff buttons. The one mile free-for-all bicycle handicap race, came next, which was the best one for the wheelmen. The wind was bad and the time was therefore a little slow.
Thrasher won in 3.32 with 25 yard handicap, Fletcher second with 100 yards. Morrison and Walker were winded and fell out of the race. Prizes: Bicycle shoes and meershaum pipe. The Varsity handicap race of one furlong followed, and after many fruitless attempts starter Usher got them off. Morgan on Aeronaut won by a neck, with Edwards on Dr. Stevens second, and Glathart third. Time, 14 seconds. Frost's Bill Piatt came very nearly being distanced owing to the bad start that was made Prizes: Smoking set and box of candy The hundred yards dash was won by Glathart on sure thing of Beal & Godding's stables, Frost on Walk In from the Smith undertaking establishment second, Morgan on Absolute third, and Ricksecker's threec year old gelding, Electricity, fourth.
The scheme to have a Jockey club originated with Jacque Morgan, to whom the success of the project is entirely due. Spellman, Harding and Manley acted as judges.

A GREAT GAME.
A Large Crowd Came Out to Cheer the Boys On.
210 497 785-6300
Gear Pitches a Splendid Game-Chamberlain's Pretty Drive to Center-Score 14 to 4.
Yesterday was inaugurated the base-ball season of '95 in K U. The game was a pretty contest, though rather one-sided, between the boys of crimson hue and the Kansas City Blues, one of the strongest ball teams in the
CAPT. MITCHELL. country
The day was an ideal base-ball one The game had been well advertised, and a fair sized crowd was assembled at McCook Field. Tuev had come out to see a crack-a-jack baseball team, and were not disappointed Manager Mannning did not fill in a lot of substitutes, but brought down to McCook field the team which whom he expects to win the western pennent, and the K U. boys will cheer them on to victory, for they have learned respect by the surest avenue—a well established superiority—in some things, that is
We are not ashamed of the showing made by our boys, not any more than you'd notice. We did not win, but we didn't dwell very long upon any allusion of that kind It took a little presumption on our part to do honors with the Kansas City boys Just look at the picture! Nine men graduated with honors from the town lots, the college of the ball player, and nine boys graduating, or hoping to, with honors, from one of the leading Universities in the country! They beat us, of course, at their own game
When Captain Mitchell invited this aspiring western team to our field he expected a defeat, worse than the one scored against him. Our boys have applied themselves to study and social life, while the Kansas City stars of the diamond have been undergoing more or less practice and training during their hibernation, and have looked forward to this summer occupation as a means to gain their support for the coming fall and winter.
THE GREATER NEW YORK CITY BASEBALL CLUB
GEAR.
The Kansas City boys are a fine lot of fellows. good natured, and good athletes, headed by a handsome and gentlemanly Captain and Manager, James H. Manning. Their conscientious playing and manly bearing made them popular in Lawrence,
and any return here would be well received. They played as though they were enjoying the game themselves, and while they are not in proper condition, yet they play a wonderfully strong game.
In itself the contest was a study, aside from the enjoyment of the game. The work of the boys in blue demonstrates the old maxium of practice and perfection as well as the power of union and strength. Although too uneven to be entirely exciting, the good points of the play were much appreciated, and any move which worked to our humiliation of the boys in blue. was received with wild cheers of enthusiasm
K. M.
KELSEY.
OUR SIDE OF IT.
It has been suggested that this game with the regular team would show up our weak points It did that if not more, and we hope the boys will profit by the teaching. In the first place it was plainly evident our boys were frightened. The first half of the game we acted very much like the little boy who is forced to fight for the pleasure of the big ruffins, and doesn't want to. It was probably natural we should have felt so, but the lack of confidence was unfortunate to the score.
There was absolutely no team work. The only semblance of this important and essen-
6
THE UNIVERSITY COURIER.
tial feature of the game was in the fifth inning, when a ball was thrown through Alden from the field, and Mitchell was there. As a general thing when a man got the ball he did not know what to do with it. We would have scored earlier and oftner if some coaches had been placed at third and first to assist the base runners, and to give the boys some confidence in themselves. This was a fatal and inexcusable mistake. In the first ining Gear was caught off second, after a pretty two bagger, because no one was there to lead him. In the fifth we had a good chance to score, which was killed by miserable base running. Mitchell got first on a slow hit, but was caught ten feet from second in an attempt to steal Todd went to first when Chamberlain was hit with the ball. Nott, was given his base, and with no one out our sky brightened. There was no coach at third, and Todd was easily caught by Pitcher Stultz. The only base running on our side was by Chamberlain and Williamson on their long hits.
The boys batted nicely, i.e., they had their "good eye with 'em," as only five strike outs to pitcher Stultz's belt will show. Every one hit the ball, and often hard, but the placing of the hits was unlucky It just looked like wherever we would knock the ball there was a blue uniform The fielding was good, at times, brilliant. The criticism in this respect is that the boys did not cover ground enough. The error column is small, but a number of hits were scored for the blues that should have been taken in.
Gear pitched a beautiful game against the hard hitting western team, and was complimented by a number of the Kansas City boys Several of the hits charged against him should have been "swollowed up" by those backing him. He was nervous, or over enthusiastic, giving eleven men bases on balls. But a total of only five earned runs is a phenomenal record against such a team. Kelsey caught a splendid game throughout, and headed off several fleet-footed Blues on their way to second. Jim was shy on high fouls for some reason. Williamson made some clever stops of line hits, and hot grounders, his two errors being fumbles, which were well redeemed. Alden's work at second was excellent, although marred by two bad errors. Todd's playing was not strictly first-c ass,
but he made the prettiest catch on our side, taking a running fly to short centre Mitchell accepted everything creditably. Agnew made the most sensational catch of the game on a hard hit to left by Klusman. Chamberlain took in two pretty flies, and and missed an easy one.
THE GAME IN DETAIL.
For the boys in crimson, Todd was the first man to face the little professional pitcher, and rapped the second ball pitched. to short; Kelsey flew out to center; Gear hit a beauty to deep center for two bases, but was caught off the base by Stultz. In the second Alden was given a base on balls: Mitchell went out to right: Chamberlain fouled to Hernon: Nott hit to short, and was headed off at first, leaving Alden on second. Agnew opened the third inning with three strikes; Williamson sent an easy one to the pitcher, and Todd a like one to short, both falling in the mit of Big Bill Klusman on first The boys were touching the ball lively, each in turn, but were unfortunate in not being able to place their hits The fourth inning was in one, two and three order. the boys going out in such rapid fashion that scorer Wynn called for time. Kelsey hit a high fly to third; Gear swung savagely three times but could not connect with Stultz's speedy curves; Alden went out from Connaughton to Klusman Mitchell started the ball rolling in the fifth by a slow one to short, which he beat to first, but a minute later was caught at a poor steal to second; Chamberlain was hit by a pitched ball Todd went to first in his place. Nott was given his base on balls With no coach on third, Todd tried to make his way home, and was easily cut off. Agnew strikes out.
The sixth inning was no exception to the fuscilade. Williamson was hit with the ball: Todd hit to short but the Kansas City boys missed a double play: Kelsey was reaching for the fence but Darby's glove was in the way: Gear struck out under the new rules, the third strike being a foul caught ten feet behind the plate. The seventh was our lucky number, sure. Alden hit easily to Stultz. Mitchell struck out, and it looked very much like the same thing over again, when Chamberlain set the crowd cheering wildly by a beautiful drive to center field for three bases. Wagner made his first appear-

ance, and was given a regular ovation when he hit the second ball pitched to right field for a pretty single, bringing in Chamberlain. Agnew went out to third.
Darby went in the box for the Blues in the eighth innsg Williamson evidently appreciated the change. He sent a hot ground ball toward short which went right through Connaughton, and before it could be returned Williamson had crossed the plate, and again the spectators yelled for fully a minute. Todd got a nice one to center and was doubled on Kelsey's hit to third, which was cleverly handled by little Nattress. Gear hit a hard one to center but without effect.
The ninth and last inning was an exciting one. Alden led out with a two bagger, a nice hit. Mitchell aimed at Nattress, who fumbled; a passed ball advanced each a base; Chamberlain sent a line ball to Connaughton, who made a splendid jump catch. Wagner went out to Manning: a passed ball let Alden in. Agnew beat out an easy one to short, and Mitchell scored Williamson returned a pitched ball to Darby. and the day was done.
For the Blues the making of scores begun in the first inning, and continued without interruption until the seventh, when they were retired with a goose egg. Rupert hit to Mitchell. Gear pitched Nattres an easy one; the little third base man made a clean hit, but was thrown out a moment later by Kelsey on an attempt to reach second. Bergen struck out.
They played the game in earnest, and played to shut out the K. U. boys. The fielding was brilliant all the time, and the coaching of the real ball players amused the spectators
Prof. Cowan held the unenviable position of umpire and was kind to his own team in case of doubt.

NOTES OF THE GAME.
It was a good starter.
Chamberlain's hit was a daisy.
The boys looked scrumptuous in their new uniforms.
Williamson can play base ball as well as hand e the big skin.
The boys have more confidence in themselves now. They will beat everytning in sight this year.
There were a number of ladies present. The attendance and interest of the fair sex is a good omen.
Nattress, the little third base man, is a college man. He broke his arm last year playing foot ball against the U.of P.
Manager Means deserves a vote of thanks for the way he conducted the game. He is the right man in the right place
Big Bill Klusman was the first victim to Gear's curves. He blushed like a school boy as he walked to the bench.
Darby wanted his base on balls in the sixth inning, and started for first on what he thought the fourth bal' when umpire Cowan called him back. Some enthusiast called out "Oh! you little bow-legged rascal, you can't fool us!"

W T. PERRY,
THE University Magazine scorches Mr. W.R.Baird and his works on college fraternities in a frightful manner.
THE Harvard Crimson has been increased in size to six pages and is now the largest college daily published in America.
The Northwestern University Students have organized a court for the purpose of investigating cases of "cribbing" in examinations. The editor of "College Life," thinks that it will be a hard worked court.
The action of the faculty in promptly directing everything that may come up, into a proper channel, may not be appreciated by the students who are here now, but will be by those who follow. The faculty of K.S. U. is working for the prosperity of the University, and the students should offer them every help in their power.
THE Juniors showed the correct spirit when they made their promenade such a success. If the other classes in the University were as progressive we would have a little more class spirit.
The editor of the Journal certainly has been misinformed when he thinks that the local man on the Courier wrote his article about Pope before the Journal had been issued. The Journal came out Friday, and the article was not written until Saturday morning.
K. U. HAS reason to be proud of her graduates who have gone to eastern colleges. Charley Johnson who went from here to study medicine at Columbia, has been appointed to a position in Radswelt Hospital. New York. Charley Johnson made the best average out of a class of two hundred, who took the examination for the appointment. Dr. Ed. Blair of Kansas City, who went from K.U., received the appointment when he was graduated from Columbia.
BELOIT COLLEGE has become a co-educational college, and straightway the usual contention has begun between the trustees, and the exclusive element among the undergraduates. The Beloit "Round Table" asks what the results will be, and indirectly answers its own question thus: "What will Beloit College be in ten years? A large prosperous, wealthy institution with an increased attendance and endowment, a faculty composed of noted men in their branches, but with a grade of scholarship on a par with ordinary western co-educational schools. A one-horse college with no especial traits or character, no worthy traditions nor reputation, giddy girls taking music and art in superficial courses, and fast young men caring more for flirtation than character."

THE UNIVERSITY COURIER.
As the beginning of the end of this college year approaches, the true character and nature of each student and organization is revealed. In the autumn each fraternity dons its brightest colors and shines at its best. Likewise every individual endeavors to present himself in the best possible manner It is remarkable how indifferently these noble ambitions are treated before June, the time when each student should be at his strongest and strive to make each college companion a life long friend.
It is a very noticeable part of conversation for a young lady to belittle the reputation of some young man that has been spending his time with her. This is especially true if the lady is in the presence of a man that is likely to become a rival. Such is a very low trick for a girl to resort to in order to gain esteem for herself. If a girl has been politic or selfish enough to accept the attention of a distasteful person, she has no right either morally or socially, to scoff at what is the most valuable acquisition to some people. If she has no respect for the man she ought to have for the affection, time and talents that she has accepted. When a girl receives a man as a guest and comrade she ought to accord to him, at least the shallow deference and sincerity that becomes this association.
We think our position on the oratorical question has not been clearly defined, or else a certain class of individuals in the University wish to misinterpret our averments. We say that if K. U. cannot get up enough interest in oratory to get more than one or two men to go in for the contest, that she had better drop out of the association. We have not won for an awfully long time. and the chances are, if we do not wake up, that we will not for a long time to come. We do not want to antagonize the oratorical association; but we think that it is certainly "too bad" that K U cannot win a contest once in a while. We do not say a word against our orators. They are good men, but not good enough. If we could get the students interested, well and good: If we could get men to go in to help win, it might do very well. But to have inferior institutions waiking rough shod over Kansas University every year is abominable. We do not expect to win every contest, but we surely should win one once in a while.
THE VIGTORIOUS INDIANS.
They Defeat the K. U. Team in a Splendid Exhibition Game.
The Local and Intercollegiate Field Days-K. U. Athletic Notes.
The three hundred people who came out to McCook field Saturday last went away satisfied and pleased. The enthusiasm would have been augmented, of course, if we had won, whether we deserved to or not, but the spectators were highly satisfied because they had witnessed, it is safe to say, one of the prettiest ball games that will be seen in Lawrence this season.
It is maybe unfortunate to the patronage of future games that the close score of 7 to 6 was not in our favor. There are so many people who cannot appreciate worth in defeat, and with whom victory covers a multitude of sins. "Who won?" "The Indians." 'Well those Kansas University fellows can't play ball.'
The day of the pictorial history of the Indian in his crude attire, amusing his fellows by wierd dance, while the scalps of several white men dangle to his belt, is gone. Under the guiding arm of good government and education, he is soon to occupy the plane of his white brothers. Barring the red skin, the boys from Haskell Institute by their general good conduct and bearing would do credit to any of the Universities of the country.
It must be said in justice to the Haskell Institute boys, and without any reflection to our own, that a more gentlemanly, good natured lot of boys is seldom seen on a ball field. They never by word or action make objection to the decision of the umpire, an almost unheard of thing in this day, the umpire being popularly used as an apology for the poor playing of both teams. They just keep still and "saw wood," and such ball playing! They are athletes all the way up, and are without doubt the strongest ball team in the state.
On the whole the game was a beautiful exhibition. It abounded in sharp fielding and pretty batting. Double plays are always considered a test of a good ball team and team work, and four such plays are rarely seen in any one game. While the

error column of the Kansas University boys is freely dotted, and many of these were wholly inexcusable, the greatest trouble is in team work and base running. The be t of them will make fumbles and drop high flies once in a while, although the game should not be noticeable in this respect alone. The most essential and absolutely necessary feature to success is in the team work, understanding each other's plays, and knowing what to do with the ball after receiving it. This is the weak point with K.U., and can only be remedied by constant practice. Individually the boys are all excellent players, good batters and fielders, and after a few games together will outplay any team in the west.
Wagner pitched a remarable game throughout. Seven of the Indians bat left handed, which is a severe handicap to any pitcher, and only three of their runs were earned. Kelsey caught his usual good game. Todd was sick and Gear played short. His one handed stop of a hard grounder in the second inning was a daisy. The most remarkable play of the day was a double by Alden and Kelsey. The work of both Alden and Williamson was ragged, though both batted well. Alden leading the team Each of the outfield is charged with an inexcusable error, which each in part redeemed, Nott's running catch in the second inning being very fine.
THE SCORE BY INNINGS.
We scored first in the third inning. Nott led off with a pretty two base hit, stole third and scored on Agnew's single. With Mitchell and Kelsey on bases, Gear, hit hard to right field, which was cleverly fielded by Williams. In the sixth Alden made a single, was advanced to second on Chamberlain's sacrifice, went to third on Choteau's fumble of Wagner's hit, and came in on Mean's error. Here Augusta showed his ability by striking out Nott and Agnew. Our lucky seven again favored us. Kelsey's two bagger, followed by clean singles by Gear, Alden, Chamberlain and Wagner, in order, netted four earned runs and tied the score In the ninth inning we lost the day. Gear flew out to centre. Alden followed with a single, stole second cleverly, and in his anxiety to tie, attempted to steal
third. Chamberlain took first on a hit, but "Buck" cut him at second.
For the Haskell Institute boys the game may be more easily related than acted out. They played ball from beginning to end, and won the game on its merits. Buckhart caught a beautiful game, accepting nine chances without an error; Means on third took two difficult fouls; Augusta pitched a strong steady game, and was especially effective when men were on bases. Choteau lead the batting with a double, triple, and home run, this hit going over the right field fence.
Coach Cowan's umpiring is not of a "high grade," with all due respect to our genial professor. In our opinion the Indians were given the negative benefit of several doubts.
THE INTER-COLLEGIATE MEET OFF.
Missouri Backs Down at the Last Moment.
Wednesday afternoon A.J. Foster received word from the Secretary of the Fairmount Park Athletic Association to the effect that the Athletic Board of the Missouri State University have refused to get up a team, and that their contract could not be carried out.
This action on the part of Missouri will be received here with regret and disappointment. Foster had taken the initiative in behalf of Kansas University, and without much effort received the promised co-operation of Nebraska, Iowa and Missouri, the latter being especially enthusiastic over the inauguration of such an event, hoping by next year to make it as big an occasion as the annual foot-ball game.
Foster immediately began correspondence with the several athletic clubs of Kansas City with a view of receiving a guarantee, or having one of them take the enterprise in hand. With considerable perseverance he finally convinced the Fairmount Park Association that the undertaking could not fail and suggested a tract team of fifteen men together with the base-ball teams from each of the schools to compete for a cup, figuring the points.
The Fairmount people agreed to the plan, with the further provision that they would pay the railroad fare and hotel bills. The offer was a liberal one, and there seemed no
4
THE UNIVERSITY COURIER.
reason why it should not be accepted. Missours's refusal on the ground that the final examinations begin on the 25th, (the first of the two days fixed for the meet) created much surprise, and will be received with sore disappointment by those who have been training.
THE LOCAL EVENTS.
Now that the impetus of the Inter-Collegiate meet has been withdrawn, it is feared by those in charge that the interest in the field and indoor matches will begin to waver. There is no doubt some ground for uneasiness in this respect. While it is a bitter disappointment to our athletes who have built so much on the hope of participation in the Kansas City contests, we do not believe this will greatly interfere with the success of our own tournament.
The most promising of the candidates are now in good condition, and while they will not have the privilege of performing before so great a crowd, records broken here will receive as wide an audience as if broken at Kansas City. Our own meet will be no mean affair in any particular. There will be a big list of valuable prizes to inspire to lingering. Then there is the Chicago Day, to which we will in all probability send two delegates.
It may be a pertinent question but a common one at K. U. to-day: "Is Missouri afraid of us? or why did she not agree to the Fair mount Club proposition?"

NOTES.
Todd is well again, and will play Saturday.
Ned. Newton is training faithfully and will make a good record in the ruus.
Shiras is getting leary of his honors. Sharp, the divinity student, will oppose him.
Much is expected of Motter, formerly of Baker, and there will be no disapointment.
Humphrey, the West Point man, is away up on the broad jump.
We don't hear much from Hill, but he will be on hand for the running events.
Charlie Fletcher will try and work down to the middle-class boxing.
Stone will be prominent in several of the events. He is in good trim, and is said to have a walk away in the shot put.
Walker has been on the bench during both games. What's the matter with giving him a chance? We are anxious to see what "Sal" can do.
This is an age of wonder. The Indian coronetist is red headed. His observation that Gear was in "gear," mildly suggests the Emerald Isle.
The bicycle races will be close and exciting. Clark, Thresher, Motter, Stone, Fletcher, and Morrison will enter.

If Motter Chamberlain and Hill don't do something to the hundred yards record we miss our guess.
At the Board meeting Tuesday, Pres. Maxwell's resignation was accepted. Kelsey was made president and Chamberlain vice-president.
Cracraft is in receipt of a letter from Elliot Smith of Kansas City asking that a double scull race be introduced in the Intercollegiate meet. This will be of no avail now that the meet is off, but Cracraft desirous of working up a local match. We have an excellent course here, good boats and much interest is being manifested in this healthful sport. There are still some vacant hours, but those wishing to take advantage of this should make early application. Among those already working the oars are Miller and Grant, Walker and Allen, Ewing and Plumb, Galbreth and Griffith, Wagner and Simpson, Sauder and Fez. We hope Cracraft will carry out the local races, as they should attract much interest.
LOGALS.
THE NEANDERTHAL SKULL.
A Romance of the Stone Age.
The evening sun was sinking behind the hill-tops, and with its disappearance the last day of the Palacolithic period was drawing to a close. On the morrow the Neolithic period would burst upon the world. An age, to-day, filled with the questionable hypotheses and conjectures of science.
Beneath the spreading branches of a massive oak tree, and near the opening of a cave, sat two persons, one a female, the other a representative of the sterner sex. The maiden's face was turned toward the setting sun, which cast a roseate hue over the ruddy cheeks already flushed with the healthful tinge of red berry juice.
The gentleman had evidently just made a "nice point" in the conversation for the face of the female plainly evinced that she had "fallen flat" at the argument. A pout rested upon her lips as turning to her companion she said "I repudiate your advances
Adamo. Because I am a woman, is that a reason for this undue arrogance on your part? Nay—leave me—or e'er the departing sun sinks behind the horizon, the vales and hills of this vicinity shall see me no more."
-
"Come now Evetta be game," replied her companion. "It cuts no ice with me whether you repudiate me or not. I stand first in all matters of authority Being evolved first, you should at least regard me with more respect. I was the first creature ever evolved."
Evetta was piqued at this illusion to her inferiority Adamo was inclined to give himself airs, in this matter, and Evatta's high spirit rebelled against any superiority which Adamo's precedence in the affair of evolution gave him. Even so soon had the aristocratic notions of the "first families" evinced themselves.
The young woman cast a defiant look upon her companion, then turning toward the sinking sun, uttered a cry of consternation and surprise.
Adamo roused himself from his reclining position and gazed in the direction in which the eyes of his fair companion were turned. What met his gaze transfixed him with surprise "A man," he cried "Well don't that queer you? What can it mean? I thought I was the only authorized edition of that work."
It was indeed a human form which so moved these two prehistoric individuals. The figure was standing upon the ridge of the hill. His form made a decided silhouette against its fiery background He was evidently contemplating a descent into the valley, and after pondering a few moments, decided upon his course.
Evetta, perceiving the stranger's intention ran into the cave. From fear? Ah no! This Palaeolitic maid, whose companions were the gentle cave bear, hyena and rhinoceros, was not thus intimidated by one of her own kind. Evetta, like many of her sex would be under similar circumstances, wished to appear as captivating as possible; for if there was really going to be another man in the case she would show that hateful old Adamo that he was not "in on this deal."
A small brook ran through the cave and to this Nature's mirror ran the maid. A little more color in her cheeks, a little more dark-

ening of the eyebrows. She was so glad her hair had been done up on rhinoceros skin curlers, all day, for her new bangs looked just too dear for anything. Yes she really looked quite captivating, she thought as she adjusted her-er-er-a- that is she let her thick hair fall in profusion around her.
When she returned to Adamo's side the stranger had almost reached the spot. He was of a fine appearance Evetta thought. His head did not have that long narrow shape which she so disliked in Adamo.
(Modern anthropologists have raised the question as to whether the owner of the Neanderthal skull were not an idiot. How little did they know Adamo.)
The stranger carried a long staff with a large flint point upon one end. His dress well it was the conventional, etc., etc., so much in vogue at that time. Drawing within close proximity, he bowed low to the two before him. "It is with surprise and pleasure that I find other creatures in this vast universe. Since my evolution I have been traveling ever onward in hope of finding another such a creature as myself."
Adamo eyed the stranger suspiciously. The new arrival seemed a little older than himself—and if his undisputed right to evolutionary precedence was to be contested, the stranger would have to go. So mused Adamo.
Evetta gave the stranger no time, however, to notice Adamo's reticence, and burst forth in innocent impulsiveness.
"Oh I am so glad you have come Don't you know it was getting so awfully stupid and" whispering softly in his ear, "Adamo is really such a bore."
"Indeed," said the stranger, pleased with his cordial reception. 'Then I suppose I may stay? You will not care?"
"Care answered Evetta "Well I don't think. Come into the cave and have some refreshment."
The stranger was evidently "on to his job" and "knew a good thing when he saw it." "Ah, thanks awfully—don't care if I do But really nothing strong, you know—honest, 'pon honor.'"
Into the cave they went. Evetta mildly rebuking the untimely hilarity of the young cave hyenas who persisted in snarling and snapping at the new arrival.
Adamo was practically "not in it." Stifled with rage and emotion he stood for many moments panting beneath the oak. "Aha is it thus?" he angrily muttered. "I am to be foiled? No he shall not have her. She is mine--mine. Rather shall they both die e'er I give her up."
In his frenzy he rushed into the cave. There a sight met his eyes which turned his blood to fire. There in the stranger's arms sat Evetta. And insult upon insult-over the floor were strewn the empty skins in which his favorite "spirits" had been preserved The hilarity within the cave increased his rage. Quickly picking up the stranger's weapon, with one well aimed movement he plunged it deep into his rival's breast He pulled it forth--another violent thrust sent Evetta into the shades of eternity. Both stranger and sweetheart were dead.
Then the awful realization of the consequences of his crime came upon him. "Alone in the world" he murmured, throwing his arms around a young cave bear, who all this time had been regarding the tragic developments of the "affair de coeur" with open eyed astonishment. "Alas! What have I done? I cannot bear the sight of these forms. I will burn them to ashes."
A roaring fire was soon started in the end of the cave, and in this funeral pyre the last rites of Evetta and her "latest" were held. While the fire was still leaping and crackling about the forms of the departed—an awful spirit of desolation oppress d the lone survivor.
"Now that Evetta is dead" he said, "what care I to live? Yes I will die too. Not as Evetta has done. No I will sever this unworthy head from its body."
So saying he picked up a sharp leaf shaped piece of flint, and in a moment Adamo's head had parted company with its better half. Adamo was "game" to the last. Let us hope he was "dead easy." As he fell upon the funeral pyre of his late victims, his head rolled out into the center of the cave, away from the flames. Thus saved from the fire, has it passed down to posterity to trouble anthropologists and thenologists.
How little do these great men of science know the true, romantic story of the Neanderthal skull.

In the fast accumulating darkness which was envoloping the departing Palaeolithic period, no human sound came upon the midnight air, only, the dismal cr of the disconsolate cave hyenas, reverberating and echoing among the neighboring hills, broke the silence. Even this failed to disturb in their eternal stillness, the prehistoric lovers of the Stone Age.
BY THE ANTHROPOLOGIST.
Junior Promenade
Another feature of the revival of class spirit was the Junior Hop or Promenade given by the members of that class at Frazier's hall last Friday night. An annual party by the Junior has been a social event of importace in many eastern schools for years and it is surely a pleasure to note the initial appearace of the "promenade" here, which we hope each succeeding class will see fit to repeat. The chronic barreness of the hall was disspelled by the presence of a multiplicity of rugs, draperies and other furnishings arrayed in a tasty manner. The approach of the season of strawberries and cream was evidenced by the numerous decorations in crimson and cream the class colors. Some sixty couples were present, all of whom will vote the affair a pronounced success.
Buch's orchestra suggested dancing, and in direct opposition to the popular fad of beginning society events later and closing at a corresponding hour, the first strain was heard at 8:15 o'clock, and continued until the last vibration of the "Home Sweet Home" at 12:15.
The gallery was more than usual a favorite place of rest and resort. An old Fortune Teller was there, who unlocked the doors of the future, disclosing to the inquisitive the manner in which the Fatas would win, the fickle thread of life. In a garden of flowers, on the stage Wm. Wiedemann was kept busy serving delicious refreshments. The elements were propitious and there was not a feature which could be said to mar the continued pleasure of the evening in any way, save the frugal endeavors of several anti-Junior classmen, who attempted to perpetrator a few old, stale jokes.

It is rumored that there will be some changes on the staff of the Students Journal.
Faulkner was summoned to Topeka Wednesday to testify in the Wm. Rogers investigation. The boys now call him "Lexow."
Next Sunday at 12:30 the colored people of the Warren street Baptist church are to hold a "cleansing," at which over 200 will be washed of their sins. The dipping will take place near Bowersock's mill. Don't miss it.

Any one desiring to attend a dental college can secure a scholarship at a discount by applying to the business managers of the Courier.
The law students are rejoicing over the fact that the three men chosen to represent the University in the coming Nebraska-Kansas joint debate, are laws.
Charlie Williams plays tennis every evening till seven o'clock. As a result he can't get to bed till he makes up for lost time in the morning.
For the accomodation of the student body at large, it may be said that the proper way to pronounce the name of Lawrence's swell hotel is to make the "s" silent. Thus: Vi(s)count.
A Summer Episode.
In every town there is a certain locality in which a gang dwells which rules it as thoroughly as any despot does his domain.
The gang is composed of several of "the boys," and for any other fellow to venture into the sacred territory governed by it, is an act carrying with it more danger than is healthful.
Not nearly so dangerous would it be for a man to go among the Indians or even to Armenia as to attempt to woo a young lady who is a resident of such a part of the town
Topeka, beautiful Topeka, with her broad avenues, handsome homes, and her two prospective dams, is unfortunate enough to be infested with such a ferocious band of young gallants, that when a stranger shows any of "de girls' any attention, he is lifted with brickbats, clubs, etc.
Now Will Reed lives in Topeka. So does Earnest Carter.
Will, or as he is generally called, "Weewee," and Carter room together up on the hill.
One strange fact in regard to these gentlemen is that they are extremely fond of the girls and herein lies the tale. One evening last summer "Wee-wee" and Carter planned a call on a sweet young girl who lived in North Topeka. As it happened, the particular part of the city in which they were to go was Redmondville, the home of the "gang," in the true sense of the word.
It was yet light when they reached the parental residence of the young lady. However, "Wee-wee" noticed, as they passed a crowd of loungers, at the corner grocery, that their presence did not seem to be exactly agreeable
The evening was spent very pleasantly; for both these gentlemen are capital entertainers. The clock on the stairs had struck eleven and the pair were making their "goodnight talk," when there was a crash. "Wee-wee" reached for his trusted Smith & Wesson, only to find that he had neglected to put it in the pocket of his "store clothes."
Carter crouched behind a chair. It was not until then they realized their dangerous position: for the house was literally surrounded by fiends, each armed with a club and a brickbat, The crash was their first volley-seventeen brickbats. "Wee-wee" and Carter hugged each other in fright.
Finally one of the gang announced that his company would give them just two minutes to get out of the neighborhood.
This was indeed a liberal offer, and they siezed the opportunity.
Their coat tails stood out perfectly horizontal and they touched only the high places. "Wee-wee" was the speedier, and he made the record of a mile and a half in just eleven minutes. Carter got tangled up with a barbed wire fence which delayed him a little but both made remarkable time. All it is necessary to say to bring a blush to the cheeks of either of these students is to mention "Redmondville" Long will they remember their call and their hasty departure.

For the benefit of some of our spring sports we give the following definition of a thoroughbred: A thoroughbred is a man who forgets that he has on new clothes.
THE Journal wants to know what the students are going to do May day to relieve its editor from spring fever. If he will gird up his loins and come up on the hill about 9 o'clock a.m, May 1st, he will find "something" that will make him breathe more freely.
THE '95 "Cornellian" is the handsomest yet issued. An edition de luxe of twenty copies has been issued and distributed among the members of the board, the prize-winners, the University library and the president of the University. The book is bound in Cornell colors, gros grain silk for sides and white vellum back, untrimmed edges with gilt top. A special die was made for the cover.
At a meeting held Tuesday evening, April 16th, 1895, the law class of '96, Columbian University, Washington, D.C., elected Mr. Frank H. Moore, graduate of Kansas University and member of the Phi Beta Kappa fraternity, to represent them on the editorial staff of the Columbian, the university magazine.
The Latin salutatory at Princeton, class of 95, representing the highest attainment in general scholarship in a class of 151 members has been awarded to William Douglas Ward, of Rochester, New York, who is also the famous half-back on the Uarsity eleven and fielder of the base-ball nine.
We are informed! We are given to understand that a paper run by the Sigma Nus is a paper by the student body. This is surely a "state of affairs." We wish to congratulate the student body. We wish to congratulate Kansas University. We also wish to congratulate ourselves, because we are not members of the student body.
OTTAWA UNIVERSITY has gotten hold of a little sand from coming in contact with the foot-ball men from Baker. They have organized a ball team and if reports are true it is a good one. They defeated the College of Emporia two games last week. We venture to say however that when Kansas University plays Emporia the team will be different. A few of the town boys will be thrown in, just to even the score up
The Board of Overseers of Harvard have placed the foot-ball question in the hands of the Athletic committee, whatever they determine is to be subject to the approval of the corporation, the President and the Board of Overseers. This probably settles the football question at Harvard, as the Athletic committee will favor playing foot-ball next fall, and the action of the Board of Overseers in voting against the faculty shows which way the wind blows.

THE UNIVERSITY COURIER.
SINCE the faculty has prohibited the students from planting a May pole an active and vigorous Cuban rebellion may be expected.
FROM the strength of our base-ball team there is no doubt about our ability to vanquish the nine of any state college. This will be a good way to retrieve our lost honors in oratory.
We often fail to give out faculty the honor that justice demands. In the late meeting of the Kansas Academy of Science at Emporia, our professors were not only the principal speakers but governed the politics and course of the association.
The enthusiasm manifested by the different classes in base-ball matters is what the school most needs. It cultivates class spirit, fosters university interest and makes our men participants in the sport, instead of continual eye witnesses and admirers of others.
FRATERNITY girl, your time "is come." With your exquisite parties yet to come what youth will fail to do you honor? Upon you will rest either his social enjoyment or desolation. He may have caused you pain in the past. Many have been the hours, possibly, that have awaited an invitation to his parties. And too, perhaps he has never in all his life asked you to dance. You wonder why it happens that it was not until yesterday that he ever called on you. You may think, and not unwisely, that he is trying to get a "stand in." But oh no! he is only calling because spring suits him better than winter. Yet Frat girl you have him. After all his seemingly rude actions to you, he did not do them consciously and is truly repentant? Overlook his faults, have compassion on him. Do not cast his name aside with a blackball attachment, but invite him willingly so the poor fellow will not have to run the gauntlet of the jeers and scorns of the more favorite ones.
AFTER all we are not to have our field meet at Kansas City. Missouri has run up the white flag because she has not what she considers a winning team. This is certainly unfortunate Everything seemed to be running along smootly and the prospect for a
successful beginning of an inter-collegiate track meet was highly flattering. We think that Missouri should have gone on with an inferior team rather than have forced the Fairmount people to give up the project. If we could once get the colleges together on the track we would have no difficulty in keeping up the interest, and making the venture a paying one. Kansas University is bound to make an inter-collegiate field meet an established affair, if it is possible. We have failed this year, let us try it again next.
We often think with regret of the repeated newspaper misrepresentations of college affairs upon the reading public. A recent scandal at one of the large universities was gorgeously disclored and served up as spice at the breakfast tables the day following the incident. College life, college students and college customs are continually suffering at the hands of reporters who have no conception of the methods and conditions of our higher educational centers, and yet, the papers are not wholly at fault, for it is often true that the student correspondents furnish them with accounts which they are unable to verify There was was an exceptionally outrageous case of this kind at Wesleyan University two or three years ago. The University of Chicago has been the first to deal with this evil by forming a press association to supervise the news that goes to the daily papers -The University Magazine.
A MEAN AND PETTY VIEW.
The people of Kansas are becoming a little weary of the offensive officiousness of the superintendent and employees of the several state institutions. This is especially true of those connected with the State University and State Normal school. These institutions are in fact the recipients of public charity and the faculty and the cities in which they are located are the chief beneficiaries. We would not underestimate their value to the state or their efficiency, but we do claim that a small degree of modesty should characterize those who live off the state's bounty.-Arkansas City Traveler.
The idea that the Chancellor and professors of the University of Kansas, are as the Traveler contemptibly styles them,"recipients of public charity" who "live off the state's bounty" is new. We do not remember seeing it put forth up to this time. It

is not exactly a broad or liberal view to take of the educators of the youth of the state and it places them in a position that they would not occupy a single moment and that they are not opliged to occupy for the people of any state. Prof. Snow., we suppose, might have made a fortune out of his preparations of chinch bug infection, instead of giving it freely to the farmers of Kansas and the world. Prof. Dyche refused, we have been informed, $150,000 for his collection of stuffed animals out of pride in the University. Prof Blake recently received a column of praise from the New York Sun for his remarkable invention for sea telephoning. Prof. Blackmar could resign his professorship in the University tomorrow and not lose a day making his own choice as to what college he would favor with his services as a professor of United States History and Sociology. These are only a few of the faculty of the University and they are not at all exceptional in their value to the educational equipment of Kansas. They are not living off anybody's bounty: they are the life of the University and they have a right to be heard when the University affairs are in question, as they are in the Rogers investigation, to which the Traveler refers. The faculty of the University are broad and cultured men, and this is fortunate; otherwise they might get disgusted with the sort of treatment accorded to them by critics who cannot rise above party considerations in considering the subject of education. As a rule, we are glad to say, the faculty of the University are regarded by the people with respect and admiration for the reputation they have given to the University of Kansas as one of the foremost educational institutions in the west We believe they are appreciated and that the work they are doing is a matter of pride to the vast majority of the intelligent people of Kansas — Toneka Copital.
We learn with regret of the departure of John Watson, familiarly known to the school during the last six years as "Little Johnnie" Watson. He has received an appointment as cadet at West Point, and intends joining the summer camp in June. The entire school heartily wishes the best of success to our "old friend John."
KANSAS UNIVERSITY WINS.
In a Good Game From the Indians.
Gear Pitches a Handsome Game-Todd Does Some Good Work.
We have again met the enemy, and this time have retreated victoriously to the spirited strains of the Haskell Institute brass band.
Saturday's was the third exhibition game of the season, and as we had lost the first two this was rightly our day to win, which we did by a score of 8 to 4.
The day in itself was not favorable to brilliant ball playing, a strong wind making it difficult to judge the high balls Neither was the game lacking entirely in pretty playing, and the three hundred spectators were well pleased.
The boys are getting right into line, and are beginning to put up a good game The team work was noticeably stronger, and besides we played with more snap and determination than has before been exhibited. The fielding was sharp at all times, excepting a couple of rank errors, and everybody hit the ball.
The Haskell boys were either tired or they can't play in an up hill game. Buckhart, Baine and Ogee played their usual strong game back of Augusta's good pitching while everybody else was slow, almost lazy in motion.
Alden was out of town, so Nott was given a chance on the inside, and Wagner held right field. Gear pitched a wonderful game, the sharp sighted red skins seeing the ball only for six hits, which were scattered. He was especially effective when the critical moment came, twice striking out the second and third man when the bases were occupied. Besides, Gear fielded his position beautifully and led the batting. Todd played a pretty game at short. With two men on bases he made a great back running catch of a high fly. Williamson takes kindly to high balls and line drives, but will insist on fumbling grounders.
THE GAME BY INNINGS.
Chamberlain put every one in good spirits by opening the game with a hit, stole second but was caught at third on Wagner's hit to short. Kelsey went out from second to first and Gear struck out.

THE UNIVERSITY COURIER.
The second inning was brief. Todd flew out to third, and Augusta struck out Mitchell and Nott. Then came the comedy of errors on the part of the Haskell boys, which with the help of two good hits at the desired moment netted six runs. Williamson and Agnew had gone out from second to first and third to first respectively. Chamberlain took first on an error by third, went to second on Choteau's second error of Wagner's hit. Ope fumbled Kelsey's hit and the bases were full Gear stepped to the plate with his Bill Klussman bat. There was an exchange glance with Augusta which must have meant that he couldn't do it again. "Buck" got down on his knees, but looked straight ahead. As Augusta let go the ball, Gear swung his bat savagely, and when the ball was returrued to the infield, Gear was resting on third, and three men had crossed the plate. Todd hit to the field and Williams missed. The Indians were plainly rattled It looked as if they were trying to see how high they could throw over each other's heads, and Todd kept going. Mitchell followed with a single, Nott with a hard drive for two bases, and Williamson ended the Waterloo with a grounder to Choteau. The other innings were one, two, three over until the seventh. Brown missed Wagner's fly: Kelsey made a lucky hit along third base, the ball rolling to the gate. Gear hit safely, but "Buck" caught him on an attempted steal to second. Todd beat a slow hit to third, Mitchell struck out, and Nott fouled out to Choteau, which ended the run getting.
For the Indians, Pigeon opened with a base on balls, and was headed off at second on Buchart's hit to Gear, Ogee then hit to Todd which resulted in a quick double play for the boys of Crimson. In the second inning Kelsey dropped Choteau's third stride, and he scored on Augusta's two base hit. In the third and fifth innings with men on bases Gear struck out the second and third man. Pigeon was given his base again in the fifth, and scored on Buchart's pretty drive to right. For the third time in the seventh inning Pigeon coaxed Gear for his base and scored on an error by Todd and Ogee's hit. Augusta led out in the eighth by hitting the ball hard between left and centre for which Agnew made a beautiful run but
could not reach. Baine took first on a fielder's choice, Peter hit to second and on an attempted double Todd threw away over Mitchell's head, scoring Peter
Choteau, who did the hard hitting in the first game, was completely at Gear's mercy, striking out three times. Baine remarked after the game that the wind was blowing the wrong way for the Haskell boys, and that he thought they could win the third game.
Cracraft acted as umpire, and filled the the position excellently His decisions were impartial and determined, much to the satisfaction of the spectators.

First College Game.
Saturday the beginning of a series of college games will be instituted by the Ottawa University base-ball team, meeting on the diamond the Kansas University boys. Manager Means is to be commended for his enterprise in arranging for games with neighboring institutions. Exhibition games, such as we have been playing, are excellent practice and a good thing if we are craving reputation in the open field of base-ball. But we are not. We should strive only to have the best team among colleges. Our aim in playing is only for recreation and to surpass other institutions in this particular as we do in all other lines The motive displayed in challenging Ottawa and Emporia cannot be too highly applauded or encouraged. All we want is, first, to be champion among all the colleges of our collegiate state.
GENERAL ATHLETIC NOTES.
Sal Walker is playing substitute on the first team.
Maurice Alden has returned from Chicago.
Motter and Newton are keeping quiet now, but will be heard from on May 4th.
The Fletcher boys are getting in good form for the boxing and bicycle contests
The Beta base-ball team is seriously crippled without John Watson.
Sam Usher has some half dozen athletics under his charge, training. They all will win, or at least, they have up to date.
Prof. Leighton, of the faculty team, gives encouragement to the hope that he can pitch. He rubs his arm down with alcohol every night.
Spellman and Ingalls are enthusiastic over adding a cake walk race to the list of the spring meet exercises. This ought to be done.Both gentlemen are eligible and have an easy and attractive way of walking. If finances are any object this race ought to be scheduled to draw a crowd.
None of the out-door exercises will likely, be more exciting than the bicycle race. The beautiful silver cup offered for the winner insures a large number of entries.
Class spirit in base-ball matters is growing at a rapid rate. Monday the Juniors play the Seniors. The game will be highly fascinating, although the Juniors have, by far, the
the strongest team. They have four of the first nine besides many valuable subs.The Seniors are in good shape, however, and rely for victory upon their work with the bat and Kelsy's encouraging coaching.
INGRATITUDE.
The Kansas City Blues have a Poor Idea of Hospitality.
Two weeks ago we invited Hon. James Manning and his pet ball players to our burg for a friendly game at the National sport. The invitation was accepted on condition we would visit Mr Manning's home, and battle in a return game.
Following the instinctive politeness and good breeding, which Kansas University students are universally known to possess and by a silent understanding between the two managers as to the financial virtue of such a course, we graciously allowed Manning's men to add a few extra scores and win the game
Thursday Manager Means gathered our boys with their crimson uniforms and started for the home of the cowboys There was no brass band to greet them, no address of welcome from Mayor Davis, but there was a fair crowd assembled at the Exposition Park. and the boys were well received
The score reads 19 to 2 against the Kansas University boys. This would look like an awful drubbing, but there were redeeming features, and on the whole the boys made a very favorable impression. The Blues played a marvelous game in the field and swallowed up hits time and again. They played to win, and what is more, they played to shut us out.
We have no grievance to offer for not making a closer score. We do not pretend to play ball against men who make a business of it. But this much is sure, and is a discredit to the Kansas City team, the umpire in his decisions was rankly favorable to the Blues, and was bulldozed by the players into many of his decisions. The fact that he was several times hissed by the spectators, goes to establish the truth of the statement.
Gear pitched a good game and was complimented by the Kansas City press. Kelsey caught well, while Todd, Mitchell and Chamberlain handled themselves creditably.

LOGALS.
No admission fee will be charged Monday for the Junior-Senior game. This fact ought to insure an unlimited amount of class enthusiasm and presence.
The game with Ottawa Saturday ought to draw out a larger crowd. This is the first of the inter-collegiate games and is worth all the college spirit we can manifest.
The Law school was lecured by Messrs. Sam Moore and Henry Woolman, two prominent attorneys of Kansas City, Mo., on Monday. Mr. Moore is a graduate of this the Law school and is one of the most successful of the Kansas City bar.
The spring oratorical contest has been postponed until Wednesday, May 1st. The contest will be held at Music hall this year as it is a more convenient place than the chapel Twenty-five cents admission will be charged.
Thursday was an off day for the Freshmen, as the score of their game against the High school will show. Before the close of the game it was reason for general applause when a Freshman would stop the ball.The High school have a very promising and good all around litte team.
ference in class banquets, etc. The faculty have condemned the practice and warned the students against participating in the celebration this year
The Kansas-Nebraska Joint Debate.
It is an old custom in this University for the Freshman class, with the aid of the Juniors, on the first day of May to erect a May pole, floating the flags of the two classes thereon. The Sophomores and Seniors try to get the flags down. This precipitates an annual class fight, which results only in torn clothes This is the last remnant of the old style college spirit which manifested itself in cane rushers, interfer-

The Pi Beta Phi party last Friday night was one of unusual interest.

The hall was artistically decorated with palms. Pi Phi colors and rugs, cushions, etc. Cherry ice and cakes were served during the entire evening from a dainty table in the corner of the balroom. The reception committees included Mr. and Mrs J. W. Green. Mr. and Mrs A. DD. Weaver and Mr. and Mrs. P. E. Emery. The music was delightful and dancing continued until a late hour.
