CRITICISM UPON "The House Boat on the Styx" seems to be generally favorable. The piece accomplished its purpose, at least, which was, and ever will be with senior plays, to furnish a vehicle for undignified, prankish senior hilarity. THE CAP and Gown experiment will soon be tried. THE SENIOR Album is a very tasteful, interesting publication. THE INTRODUCTION into the University of another Greek letter fraternity is a welcome event. After much ardent intercession, the representative men of the law school have succeeded in obtaining a charter for the founding of a Kansas chapter of Phi Delta Phi. The national character of this fraternity is well known. It is strictly legal and does not bar from its membership men who are otherwise fraternally connected. Of late years it has been prone to exclusiveness; we take it, therefore, that the recent grant of a charter to us is a national recognition of the excellence of our law department. It devolves upon the charter members of Phi Delta Phi to make this chapter merit the confidence which has been bestowed it. A law fraternity is of all college organizations most plausible. Its benefits are apparent; its end, justifiable; and its results practical. IF THERE is one suggestion, anent the future management of THE WEEKLY, which we feel warranted in making it is that there is great need of a consolidation of Kansas University periodic publications. THE WEEKLY, The Lawyer and Latin Notes have had unhealthful business relations among themselves, the prosperity of any one lessening the success of the other two. Now, a college publication should have one end, only one—the glorification of the school whence it comes. When an unnecessary conflict of business interests impairs the literary quality of each paper involved, it is evident that college journalism is upon a poor working basis. Complications with us can be easily obviated, provided the active supporters of the various pa- 310 Kansas University Weekly. pers can be induced to forget their personal interests and to give themselves up to the one idea of turning out a creditable weekly. We propose an unconditional consolidation of the three above mentioned publications. Literacy. Love's Duo. The sun has sunk in swelling crimson waves, The silent sighings of the gentle wind, And from the east the full moon sways the night, Breathes with a tender touch on the acacia flower, And lingering long within the live-oak holt, Ruffles at last the river's rippling flow. The mock-bird's softened song comes sweetly through The murmuring music of the waters bright, And on the wide stream's beaming breast a boat Drifts slowly down to the light notes of song, As two it bears chant in sweet strains of love, His oars trail lightly from the row-lock rings, Her hands flash white the while they sweep the chords, Her face upturned shows pale beneath the moon. Then silence falls upon the chords and them And soul and soul take up the hushed song. ROBERT WILSON NEAL. Toya. The dreamy haze of Indian summer floated and curled and quivered above the brown expanse of meadowland, and at last massed itself in the purple distance. Brown as the meadow was the face of the Cherokee maiden, and as unfathomable as the purple distance were her eyes. "Fair as the sumac is the Cherokee maiden, Lithe as the willow is the Cherokee maiden, Fleet as the wind is the Cherokee maiden, Oh come, come, come!" sang the west wind in Toya's ears, and the sumac bushes and the red willows, growing along the little stream which trickled its way through the meadow, beckoned to her to join them. Toya looked at the huge, stone buildings, around the quadrangle, one after the other, and then at the sumacs and the willows. "Fair as the sumac is the Cherokee maiden; Lithe as the willow is the Cherokee maiden. Fleet as the wind is the Cherokee maiden; Oh! Come, come, come ! " still sang the west wind. "I hate you," said Toya, addressing the buildings, "I hate you! You are unfree !" A man who bore himself with an air of authority, approached the girl. "Toya," he said, "I have just received word that the Cherokees are not to be allowed the privileges of education at the expense of the government, any longer. You are a Cherokee, and you—" Toya arose, straight as an arrow, her breast heaving with suppressed emotion, and her hands tightly clasped together. "If I must, I must," she said simply. A year passed away, and the Indian summer had again come with its dreamy haze and sunbrowned prairie land. The first frosts of autumn had painted the leaves of the sumacs and the willows all brilliant red and orange. The last breath of summer yet lingered and gave life and warmth to the golden rod which still flaunted its downy plumes in the breeze. The man went away, and Toya sank down by the window. The tears which education had engrafted into her nature, gathered to her eyes. "Home," she faltered, "home such as I have—I can not stand it! Why did God, this just, kind God they are always telling us about, make me an Indian? It isn't fair." She stretched her arms out toward the buildings, "I love you," she sobbed, "I love you--you are life and the world to me." In a rude, miserable "shack" behind the sumacs and the willows, was a young Indian woman with dark, unfathomable eyes. It was Toya, but not the Toya of a year before; not the bright, quaint girl who had always been pointed out as an example of the fact that Indian education is not a failure. Browner than the prairie grass was her face, and her hands were hard and calloused. No longer the west wind sang in praise of her beauty, no longer the sumacs and the red willows beckoned to her to join them. Kansas University Weekly. 311 Every evening when she mounted her pony and galloped away across the prairie to the great hill to the eastward, where she gazed into the distance, longing, hoping against hope, thinking of the seven white stone buildings around the quadrangle, the west wind sang a funeral song and the willows waved their branches mournfully. Then she would ride back, slowly and hopelessly, and return to her drudgery, to her slavery, to indignities and to insults. Such had been her life since leaving the Indian school, and such she knew it would ever be; for what could the Indian girl do? She had no friends, she cared for none. She hated everything and everybody around her—everything but the shaggy pony to which she confided all the pent-up longings of her heart. She hated her drunken father who lounged about the house from morning until night, too lazy to do anything but drag himself away at evening only to return at daybreak more drunken than ever. She hated her rude brothers who swore and gambled and made boisterous jests about her, calling her Proud-Heart, and Pale-Face-Ape. Why shouldn't she think and feel as white women did? Surely, she had a heart and a soul just as her fairer sisters had. She hated the men who frequented their miserable home once she had used her knife but no one ever knew, for the cowardly, sneaking brute who had insulted her, never told. Oh! how she hated them all! Yet, she must stay, stay on and on, while her future grew blacker and blacker. The world was hard enough on white women, but it was harder still on Indian girls. The bees, lured out by the warm sunshine buzzed lazily about the door yard, but above the hum of the bees came the sound of voices. "Heap good girl," she heard her father grunt, "Heap good girl, make good squaw." Toya jumped to her feet,her eyes flashing and her fingers working at the folds of her gown where the hilt of a knife peeped forth. "Me giv'er you for horse-one horse-two horse." shook with rage and defiance,—but then,would it not be better? Would it not be better than this miserable home? Would not anything be better than this place she called home? She saw her father coming towards the house, a young brave by his side. Her lithe form With a startled little cry, she thrust the knife back into its hiding place, and greeted the visitor sullenly. Meekly and humbly, she submitted to all arrangements, and even smiled when her father told her that he had received two fine horses for his "dear, beautiful daughter, the light of his life, and the joy of his old age;" but her eyes were more unfathomable than ever, and that night when she rode out to the hilltop, she threw her arms around her pony's neck—her only friend—and sobbed as if her heart would break. "Oh! Fleetfoot, I am ruined," she cried, "They have sold me for a horse and to a snake! Is there nothing I can do? Nothing? Nothing?" She threw herself upon the ground, and dug her fingers into the hard, sun-baked sod. But, there was no sympathy for the Indian girl, nothing but the funeral song of the west wind. "Why did they take me away from my home, and make me realize the misery of it all? I there be a God in Heaven, as they have taught me there is, save me from this fate!" It was the same prayer she had been praying day and night for a whole year, but she had never expressed it in words before. She arose, and listlessly rode home, while the west wind sang wilder and wilder, and the willows tossed their branches in anguish. The next morning Toya seemed almost happy as she made her simple preparations for the wedding feast,—but her eyes were as unfathomable as before. Depraved as her father was, he was nevertheless determined that the wedding ceremony should be strictly observed, but perhaps it was more on account of the meat and drink that should be served at the feast, than for his daughter's sake. Slowly, the morning gave way to afternoon, and the afternoon to evening. The sun was reddening the western sky,and the time was almost at hand when Toya and her young brave 312 Kansas University Weekly. were to go, hand in hand, to the woods, returning when the sunset gun was fired as signal that the ceremony was over. But Toya had slipped away from the drunken company, and was speeding away to the eastward, hardly knowing what she was doing. This time she did not stop on the hill-top but sped on to the rocky bluffs beyond, where the sumacs and the willows grew in matted tangles. There she stopped, panting and trembling. Oh! Fleetfoot! Is there no way? Must I endure slavery and drudgery all my life? Is there no God in Heaven?" She looked about her as if seeking some means of escape. An ugly, flat-headed snake lay stretched out full length on the rocks, basking in the rays of the setting sun. The old, old legend flashed into Toya's mind: Many, many years ago when the Great Spirit ruled the land, men and maidens read their fate in the eyes of the rattle-snake. Why not she? With great care, she slipped a buckskin noose over the ugly head, and deftly tied each end of the thong to a sumac bush. The eyes of the reptile flashed fire, and he darted his tongue in and out, and lashed his tail in a perfect frenzy of anger. But Toya gazed long and steadily into the evil eyes. Nothing of fate could she see. The sun was sinking lower and lower, and she must return to misery and to—but wait, surely there is a picture in the reptile's fascinating eyes seven white stone-buildings around a quadrangle! The eyelids of the maiden drooped lower and and lower, and gently, as a tired, sleepy child, she laid her cheek upon the snake's ugly head. The sun had set. The serpent had slipped his noose, and glided away through the sumacs; but Toya slept. The west wind sang softer and ever softer, "Fair as the sumac was the Cherokee maiden. Fair as the stumac was the Cherokee maiden. Lithe as the willow was the Cherokee maiden Fleet as the wind was the Cherokee maiden Gone, gone, gone;" and the sumacs and the red willows waved their branches to and fro, to and fro, sighing as if they had secrets to tell, for Toya, the Cherokee maiden, had been sold for a horse, sold to a snake. ETHEL A. HICKEY. Sander's Future. Will Sanders was by far the brightest man on the staff of the Daily News. All the boys themselves admitted it and the managing editor showed very plainly that he thought so too. Whenever there was an extra piece of work to be done which required the best man he was always sure to send for Sanders. "That man has a future before him," he was heard to remark one day and the sentiment was echoed by those who heard it. Sanders was young; in fact he had just turned twenty, and having completed his course at an Eastern college determined to come West and try his hand at journalism, a profession for which he had always had a liking. He was small in stature and on account of his auburn hair and freckled face, which at first sight gave him countrified appearance, as well as on account of his name he was soon known by all as "Sandy." He was sociable and congenial, never had what is termed the blues and was seldom discouraged. He had a habit of slightly cocking his head to one side when listening to any one or any thing which gave him a characteristic appearance. But Sandy had one bad trait. He was so congenial that he could never refuse an invitation to drink and on account of his popularity opportunities were never lacking to gratify what soon became a sordid appetite. As the days went by the time between drinks was materially shortened until he was accustomed to carrying what is vulgarly termed "a large sized jag." One day the wires reported a destructive cyclone at a small village not far from the city and news being scarce the managing editor determined to send Sandy out for a full write up of the affair. But unfortunately for Sandy he met one of his boon companions on his way to the depot and loitering in a saloon they soon became blind to everything but mirth and song. Time fled merrily by to them but when the first edition was held as late as possible in order to print Sandy's cyclone write up and no write up came, the managing editor became furious and when Sandy appeared at the office he peremptorily discharged him. Kansas University Weekly. 313 Sandy did space work for the other papers for a time, going deeper and deeper into his cups and managing to conceal his discharge from his mother for some weeks. She soon surmised however that something was wrong on account of the settled spells of despondency which he had and finally she obtained a full knowledge of the whole affair from him. Then the widowed mother tied the black strings of her bonnet under her chin and turned her wrinkled face toward the office of the Daily News. The future of her boy must not be destroyed on account of one false step. He mus have one more trial at least. The head of the staff gave her kindly attention but at first only shook his head. "It is almost no use, Mrs. Sanders," he said. "We are all fond of Sandy and would be glad to do whatever we can for him but we have only responsible men on the staff. However, we will give him a trial in a subordinate position for a time for your sake. If he shows an inclination to do well we will promote him." Mrs. Sanders left the office with a radiant face and going home pleaded with her boy to promise never to touch liquor again. Sandy worked faithfully for three weeks. He shunned his old companions and had broken off his old habits so faithfully that the managing editor determined, when the first opportunity came, to trust him once more. He was called up into the office one night not long afterward. "We have reliable information," said the editor, "that Mr. Morgan the well known financier will come to the city to-night on the midnight express. We have reason to believe that none of the other papers know this. We must have an interview with him in regard to the financial policy of the present administration and get a statement from him if possible concerning attacks made upon him in connection with the recent bond issue. You will just have time to catch the evening train which meets the midnight express at Kilworth." The editor paused a moment. "Sandy" he continued, "if you get this we will have a 'scoop' and your chances for getting at the head of the department will be increased. Remember we are trusting you." Sandy was soon aboard the suburban train going to Kilworth. When he got off he paced the platform in exultation. Again the future which had seemed lost seemed once more in his grasp. What a proud moment when once more he could show his mother that her confidence had not been misplaced. An engine whistled. He faced in the direction from whence he expected the train. Far up the track could be seen the headlight. The rays of light seemed speeding along the rails to keep ahead of the engine. On, on it came. Now he heard the bell ringing and the puff! puff! of the engine. In a few moments more he would be aboard the train and smiled to himself as he thought of the tussle with Morgan to learn what he wanted to know. How confident that Morgan would fail in keeping his secrets. Nearer and nearer the engine came; then dashed past him without decreasing its speed. For an instant he stood bewildered. Then the thought rushed all over him at once: the midnight express did not stop at Kilworth. He should have waited one station farther back. At the office they would only say "Got drunk again I suppose. We won't need you any longer." At home there would be a grief-stricken, heart-broken mother. Then must he tramp the street with starvation staring him in the face. Instinctively he leapt for the car steps passing by but he did not calculate the speed of the train going fifty miles per hour. The porter $ o_{n} $ the steps just had time to see the leap and the form disappear under the car. He pulled the bell cord. When the train backed up they picked up the mangled body. Life was not extinct though both limbs had been severed. He opened his eyes with a bewildered expression on his features. The physician bent over him. He smiled as though recognizing that he was on the train. "This is Mr. Morgan, I believe" he began. "You are hurt, you can live but a few moments." Then he remembered the leap, the fall and a paroxysm of pain swept his features. By sheer 314 Kansas University Weekly. force of will he seemed to remain conscious. His voice grew husky, "tell them, tell them how it was. I—I miscalculated, I missed the train, I wanted—to redeem my future. Tell them I—wasn't—drunk." R. G. McKINNIE. A Tale of Eutopia.

Throughout his school course he has been actively engaged in preaching. Well Done, '97. The Senior play was presented to a packed house last Wednesday night. Every seat in the house was taken, standing room being at a premium. Many were unable to obtain seats and for the benefit of these the play was repeated Friday night. A majority of the audience were professors and students although there was a large attendance of Lawrence citizens. The play fully merited the large audience that greeted it. John Kendrick Bangs' "House Boat on the Styx" is in itself very interesting but as adapted to the stage and filled with hits at prominent University professors and students it becomes doubly so. The interest of the audience at no time flagged except during a portion of the third act. The skillful manner in which the different characters were impersonated showed that much care had been used in determining the cast of characters. L.N. Flint as Prof. Codder, Harry R. Kohn as Dr. Johnson, H.W. Smith as Charon, and Pauline Lewelling as Xantippe displayed perhaps the most talent Mr. Flint's characterization of Prof. Codder deserving special mention. R.R. Price made a very acceptable Prof. Kilrox, and C.L.Fay as Baron Dychehausen was good although he could not be heard at times. The confusion and delays which usually attend an amateur theatrical performance were not a feature of last Wednesday's play and this added much to its enjoyment. Buch's orchestra furnished music between acts and members of the Senior class passed through the audience selling the class annuals. The play as a whole was a great success and reflects great credit on the senior class, especially those having parts in it; also Miss Brown and Manager O. T. Hester.

The largest class in the history of the School of Fine Arts finished its series of recitals at University Hall last Tuesday night. The month of May was crowded with the musical events, sometimes as many as four recitals a week being given. Notwithstanding, each recital has been crowded, and the wisdom of the change from Music Hall to University Hall has been fully demonstrated. It has been interesting to note the characteristic feature of each recital—how each one has differed from the other, not only in the program, but in the style of interpretation, but the individuality of the graduates. It has likewise been interesting to notice the criticisms of the public. Some liked this recital best, others liked that one, but everybody found much to admire in all. Beginning with Miss Skofstad's and closing with Miss Lapham's, the recitals have all been highly successful from the artistic standpoint, and the fact that the audiences were so large every evening proved the interest and pleasure of the public. The work of the school of music has been shown to advantage and the variety in the programs, the high quality of the compositions rendered and presented, the differences in interpretation is the strongest evidence of the ability of the instructors in not only giving the best instruction, but in adapting it to the individuality of each student. Sociology and Economics. The following graduate students have presented theses for the degree of A. M.: 1. Rev. Willis G. Banker on "The Origin of Religion." 2. M.

Class Day. The seniors are intending to have a big jollification on the campus Monday afternoon. It has been several years since class day exercises have been held, and the return to old customs will be welcomed by all who remember the good times which used to be a regular feature of commencement week. The caps and gowns are expected to lend something of dignity to the occasion though they will not be allowed to interfere with the fun. Speeches by members of the class and impromptu (?) responses by professors will give opportunity for the display of a considerable variety of oratorical talent. A never-to-be-violated treaty of peace between the senior class and the Faculty will be formed. Music (?) will be furnished by members of the class, at least, a noise with more or less harmonious properties will be made by the band. A large crowd is expected and special permits will not be necessary in order to walk on the grass. School of Fine Arts. Mrs. Clark is again able to be on the hill. Profs.

The following statement concerning the results of the Advanced Work in Latin and the Latin Seminary conducted by Professor Holmes, may be interesting to the University at large. Here the work of the comparative study of Persius and Juvenal was continued along the same lines pursued during the previous term. In addition to the regular work of interpretation required of every student, the following papers deserve special mention: a paper on "The Prologue to the Satires of Persius" by Miss Williams, published in the Latin Notes and already favorably known outside of University circles; a paper on "Persius's Despondence on Horace as Evidenced by his First Satire" by Miss Criss; a paper on "Names of Persons in Juvenal" by Miss Crawford; a paper on "Juvenal's Use of the Diminutive" by Miss Williams, published in the Latin Notes; a paper on "Literary References in Juvenal" by Miss Thompson; a paper on "The Bibliography of Juvenal" by Miss Williams; a paper on "The Individual Syntax of Persius" by Miss Davis. An Index Verborum Persianus undertaken by Professor Holmes and Mr. Fay is also awaiting a publisher. This work of the Seminary has been supplemented by the usual amount of reading of Latin authors, by exercises in turning English into Latin and Latin into English at hearing and by two courses of lectures on "Roman Satire" and "Linguistic Science." The results of the work of the Seminary have been gratifying to the director. The enrollment was 17. In addition to this work, the entire department is organized into a "Latin Society" meeting bi-weekly, carried on by the students themselves under direction. By this means the work of the entire department is coordinated. Six very commendable programs have been presented bearing on the work for the term. Under the patronage of the Latin Society, twelve issues of Latin Notes have already appeared containing some of the results of the work in Latin for the term. Several flattering commendations of this little publication have already been received from various parts of the country. The publication is more than self-supporting, the proceeds have so far amounted to more than double its cost. Its existence is assured, from a business point of view, for the next six months, and it is likely to be permanent. The net earnings are devoted to the D. H. Robinson Graduate Scholarship in Latin.

The Kansas University base ball team was not so successful in its Nebraska trip as in the Missouri games. The games and scores were as follows: Leavenworth vs. K. U., 10 to 5, in favor of Leavenworth. Nebraska vs. K.U., 11 to 4, in favor of Nebraska. Nebraska vs. K. U., 10 to 5, in favor of Nebraska. Manhattan vs. K.U., 13 to 4, in favor of K.U. NEBRASKA VS. K. U. The Nebraska boys won both the games against K. U. Nebraska has a strong team this season made up of old experienced players, but their strongest point is team work. The weather for the morning game was perfect. In the afternoon great clouds of dust commenced sweeping across the ground after the sixth inning and the boys kept their mouths shut to keep from swallowing the debris. Peters pitched a strong game in the morning, but was a trifle wild. He struck out eleven men, his support however was too poor to win the game. The Kansas men bunched their hits well in the first game but the superb fielding of the Nebraska men kept them from being of benefit. In the second game the Nebraska boys won by superior batting and base running, in fact their base running was an eye opener for the Jayhawkers, Sherman being the only Kansas man who tried to steal a base. Robinson pitched a great game for Nebraska and batted the ball like Casey wanted to. Out of five times at bat in the second game he made three singles and a triple. The playing of Kindler was excellent, accepting ten hard chances in the second game without an error. In the first game the Kansas men did not score until the sixth inning, Sherman scoring on Todd's three bagger. After that the men livened up a little and scored three more runs. The score was: NEBRASKA. AB. R. BH. PO. A. E.

In the last two innings they went to pieces, but the Pni Gams could not recover the lead. JUST AS WELL Supply yourself now with stylish reliable shoe for the summer.
