ANOTHER BIG VICTORY FOR KANSAS UNIVFRIITY.
St. Marys F put up a Game F fight and Gave Us a Good Gene It looked Doub-tiful in the First half but Wood-ruff is Glad it Happened.
s Glad It Happened.
K. U. added another to her long list of football victories when she defeated St. Mary Wednesday. The game was called at St. Marys before about 300 people. The score was 28 to o.
K. U scored its first touchdown in the first few minutes of play. After that St. Marys had rather the better of her opponents during the first half. She made gains by bucking the Kansas line, but failed to score a touchdown. In this half K. U gave a poor exhibition of playing and the half closed with the score only four points in her favor.
The second part of the game was all K. U.'s way. While the Lawrence boys failed to make the big end gains they made in the Iowa game, she went through center and right guard with ease, and for big gains. There was a great deal of wrangling during the game and at one time St. Marys almost withdrew from the game. The twenty minute halves were drawn out to about forty each.
K. U. won the toss and took the east goal, but retained the ball. Speak kicked off forty yards to Dicker who returned twelve Connor and Lamb bucked the line for good gains, but K. U. secured the ball on a fumble. Hess gained eight yards and Mosse three. Then Poorman worked the right for fifteen yards and Voigts went around the left for twelve. Hess went five yards further for a touchdown. Mosse missed a difficult goal.
Keilly kicked off twenty yards to Speak who made a fair catch and returned the kick eighty-five yards and over the goal line. From the twenty yard line Dicker kicked fifteen yards and and Avery recovered the ball for Kansas, when it went over the side lines. Speak and Poorman went around left by the fake kick. Speak and Poorman went around right for ten and five yards respectively, but Hess fumbled and gave the ball to the home team.
K. U. did not recover the ball during this half. St. Marys bucked the line for gains and forced the ball slowly but surely down the field. Lamb made a gain of ten yards around right. Farry was sent through for good gains and Kelly made yards. Lamb and Riley were used for small gains and the ball was forced inch by inch toward the K. U. goal. When time was called it was still in St. Marys possession not far from the center of the field.
When Dicker kicked off in the second half the ball went over the goal line and was caught by Kennedy who ran forty-five yards before he was downed. Ally dispute followed as to whether the ball was in play, having gone over the goal line. Referee Kleinhans had to blow his whistle when the ball went over the goal line, so the ball was brought back to the center of the field for another kick off.
With the ball in her possession K. U. started in for big gains. Kennedy carried the pig skin twenty yards, Poorman made ten yards around right and Voigts twenty-two yards around left. K. U. did not keep up this pace however, and the ball went to St. Marys on down, but St. Marys gains were small and the ball was returned to K. U. Gains were made by Hess, Speak, Mosse, Poorman, Foster and Kennedy. Hess went over for a touchdown, Mosse kicking goal. K. U. did not lose the ball again, and from this point everything was her way. Hess, Foster and Speak each made a touchdown and Mosse kicked every goal. Speak barely missed a goal kick from the thirty-five yards line. The final score was K U 88; St. Marys o. The
Umpire and referee, Brenner of St. Marys; and Kleinhans of Topeka. Linesmen Buttermore and Johnson.

Y M. C. A. Mn of Kansas to Meet in Lawrence.
STATE CONVENTION
The University Y. M. C. A. is busy assisting in the preparations which are being made for the sixteenth annual convention of the associations of the state. This meeting will be held in Lawrence from November 11 to 14. There will be a morning and afternoon session of special interest to Christian workers, but the evening meetings will be devoted largely to addresses of more general interest.
The program is exceptionally strong, and bears many names not unknown within our walls. Dr. W. A. Quaule of Kansas City, is to deliver the opening address Thursday evening. Rev. Alexander Patterson of Chicago, will speak the next evening on "The Greater Christ," and Saturday night Mr. C. C. Michner of New York, will tell of the "World Christian Student Federation."
Mr. Michner has several times visited the University in his capacity of international college secretary, and has many friends here. Other well known names are those of A. E. Moody, at one time president of the association here, and Bruno Hobbs, who graduated from the law school in '90.
The convention will meet in the Methodist church.
Mr. Parrott Talks Entertainingly to the Engineering Society,
THE CROYDEN EXPERIMENT.
The Civil Engineering society held the usual weekly meeting this week.
Mr. Parrott, a former manager of the Coyden sewage irrigation farm of England, presented the practical side of broad irrigation as a means for sewage disposal.
The C. oyden sewage farm consists of 450 acres. It is owned by the city of Croyden, which has a population of about 100,000 inhabitants. The farm serves a two-fold purpose—sewage irrigation and sewage disposal, the latter being, however, the more important.
The products of this farm grow ver rank and quick. Grass is cut six times i year, each growth being over three feet in height, Mangelwurtzels, swedes, carcabbage, osiers, etc., grow by the ton. T twenty million gallons of sewage can be handled daily and two hours after the sewage is applied to the land it appears in the e fluent as good potable water fit for family use.
Caps and Gownsor Seniors
President McKinnie of the senior class posted last week the names of the committee on caps and gowns.
The committee will consist of Mr. Loomis, Miss Crawford, Miss Criss, Mr. Lee and Mr. Harry Clark. This committee will investigate prices of gowns and report at the next class meeting. There is a sentiment in the class for getting the caps and gowns about Christmas time and wearing them on all state occasions for the rest of the year.
S. J. Hunter of the department of entology of Kansas university is preparing a circular letter to be sent to the nurserymen of the state, warning them against the San Jose scale, which has come to be such a destructive orchard pest. Kansas nurserymen and orchards are so far free from the scale, but it is very destructive in some places.
A Warning to Nurserymen.
Mr. Hunter's bulletin on the destructive varieties of grasshoppers in Kansas is out. In finding material for this work Mr. Hunter spent a week or so in Edwards county where the pest was the worst.

SCRUBS SCORED ON VARSITIES.
SECOND TEAM CROSSSES THE LINE OF THE NEVER-DEFEATED.
Pennsylvania Game a Possibility-K.U.
May Play Wisconsin–Other
Games Are Under
Consideration.
K. U. Varsities, 6; K. U. "scrubs" , 6.
"Oh. I don't known, you'r not so warm" said big center rush Sherman of the scrubs to big center rush Walker of the varsities, Friday afternoon.
One of the scrubs had carried the pigskin over the goal line and another had sent it spinning between the goal posts. In short the scrubs had scored on the varsities.
Wylie G. Woodruff, M. D., Bert Kennedy, Q. B., twenty-five varsities and scrubs, F. B., and nine hundred students K. U., have set their eyes on the Interstate pennant this year. Woodruff, Kennedy, and the boys expect to land the plum for Kansas
Everybody knows the great record the Kansas pigskin-chasers have made this year; how they walloped the team that licked Missouri; how they walked over the boys who overthrew Northwestern; how they were never scored against, in fact, except by the Medics of Kansas City and them the Kansas boys ingloriously defeated.
It was a record they had reason to feel proud of. They felt happiest after they spread Iowa in the dust and had so unmistakably defended their right to the championship of the middle west.
Then it was that Dr. Woodruff wrote to Pennsylvania, Manager McKinnie tried to fix up a game with Princeton or Carlisle or any other old team that would accept the honor of playing with Kansas.
As a side-issue the Kansas players took a trip up to St. Marys. Before the game the St Marys manager implored the Kansas coach not to run the score higher than 150 points. The coach did not promise.
It was a queer sight. Kansas was sur-
surised when St. Marys pushed that ball
seventy-five yards down the field. Through
the line the St. Marys men went with ease.
Gains of four, five, eight and ten yards
were made. That stone wall was being
punctured.
But Woodruff was glad it happened.
"It is a good lesson," he told the boys.
The boys didn't laugh much. "How about Pennsylvania?" asked someone, The St. Marys kickers didnt score, but the scrubs did.
There was practice on McCook field yesterday afternoon. Good, hard, quick, snappy practice, such as team indulged in in the good old days before the low game
The team is still "never defeated" and it will remain such. The Medics are still the only men who have been able to cross the Kansas line - except the scrubs.
So bring on Pennsylvania. A contest with the Quakers will determine the relative strength of the east and west on the football field. Then if possible there should be a game with Wisconsin.
Manager McKinnie is in correspondence with the management of several big clubs trying to arrange games. One with Minnesota will probably be played and Wisconsin may also oppose us in a contest.
A game with Missouri would be interesting. Wisconsin is champion of the northwest. Kansas is champion of the southwest. This game would decide the championship of the great west.
Here is the Kansas record up-to-date.
I isn't half bad, is it?

TUCKER IN CHARGE
Kansas Will be Well Represented at the Omaha Exposition.
Mr. E. S. Tucker, the photographer for the University, has accepted an appointment as commercial agent for Kansas exhibits for the Trans-Mississippi & International Exposition to be held at Omaha, Feb., from next June to November.
He has already entered upon the work and much of his time will be occupied in traveling through the state in order to visit each county for the collection of funds and exhibits.
In the educational work of the state, both denominational and public institutions, and the University in particular is expected to be represented. Prof. Williston will have charge of the collection of Kansas building stones, and the selection of geological specimens, life size restorations and other illustrations and photographs from his department. Prof. Haworth has been asked to classify and direct the display of mineral products. In the department of Entomology. Prof. Hunter will direct the work of Miss Weeks, the artist, who will draw and color a number of richly enlarged figures of minute and microscopic insect pests.
The University Council, Still Undecided With Regard to the Holiday Tour.
WILL THEY PERMIT THE TRIP?
The musicians of the University are still living in suspense, for the University council has not yet decided whether or not to allow the musical clubs to make their holiday tour.
Prof. Penny, Director Robertson, Manager Harris and the entire membership of the club are working conscientiously, and have given the University the best musical clubs in its history. But the consent of the faculty to make the proposed tour is yet to be gained. The members of the University council are taking time to consider the matter.
The Glee and Mandolin clubs are holding regular practice and are improving nicely. Manager Harris planned a concert tour to include the leading towns of the state, and judging from the statements of local papers the people in the several towns are expecting rare treats and preparing to give the musicians hearty receptions.
A meeting of the council was held Friday and it was expected that a decision would then be made, but none was announced. Another meeting [will be held Monday, when a decision may be made. It is hoped that the gentlemen will reach a favorable conclusion speedily. ]
MANY PROFESSORS WILL SPEAK.
Irrigationists Will Meet at the University in Two Weeks.
The fifth annual meeting of the Kansas State Irrigation association will be held in the University auditorium on Thursday and Friday, November 18th and 19th. Several K. U. professors will take part in the meetings.

LAWRENCE, KANSAS, NOV 6, 1897
Prosperity doesn't appear to have struck Iowa yet.
They seem to have quite a frisky young football, cam up at Lincoln, too.
Up to the hour of going to press the Pharmies had committed no depredations today.
The boarding house egg is **not always**
what it is cracked up to be. No student
will deny that.
"There are other worlds to conquer," sighs Wiley Woodruff casting a Pennsylvania glance eastward.
We violate no confidence when we say that it is our honest and candid opinion that Dr. Wylie G. Woodruff is all right.
St. Marys has joined in the procession along with Midland, Haskell, Warrensburg, the Medics, Glasco and Iowa. Next!
Office-seeking is a killing process. Those fellows who are thinking of running for the football management next year should think twice. Beware the fate of Henry George.
To those who object to the space devoted by the WEEKLY to the chronicling of our football victories we commend patience. The football season will last only three weeks longer and then we will gladly devote more space to campus gossip and moral questions.
The splendid tribute paid Dr. Wylie Woodruff by Mr. George Innes is in every respect deserved. The victories of the football team are not the only result of the excellent coaching the men have received. Doctor Woodruff has impressed upon the team his own gentlemanly qualities and their play shows the effect of this. The game last Saturday was an exhibition of remarkably clean football.
The Daily Cardinal of the University of Wisconsin is an example of live college journalism. While Wisconsin's football team was winning the game from Minnesota at Minnesota, the editors of the Cardinal were on duty at Madison receiving cipher press despatches and preparing those for the compositors. Before the students at Minnesota had quite recovered from the decisive score the students at Madison were reading all about the victory in their college paper.
The M. S. U. Independent, contrary to the usual good sense of that publication, suggests a plan whereby the newspaper correspondents of the University of Missouri may be muzzled. We predict that the plan, even if practicable would not work to the advantage of the school. There are no public institutions of which the people are more jealous than their state universities. The suspicion spread abroad that facts were being concealed in regard to them or even that there was censorship of the press exercised would work untold evil. Only in the clear light of the public gaze, its every act scrutinized, can a university flourish. There is nothing more to be desired than a fearless freedom of the college press.
The Great Woman's Edition
Now for the women's office.
Next week the male portion of the WEEKLY staff will "lay off" and attend a few recitations. Next Saturday's paper will be gotten up by the girls of the University and to say that is to say that the paper will be a very warm proposition.
Now for the woman's edition.
For weeks the young ladies in charge have been working hard; harder than the boys of the WEEKLY force ever could or would work. Everybody knows that the Weekly is the best college journal in this part of the country and next week's paper will be the best ever printed anywhere.
The paper will be entirely the work of the girls. They will rustle all the ads, write all the editorsials and all the scoops, prepare all the copy and read all the proof, in short, prepare everything.
The paper will consist of eight pages, —twice the size of the WEEKLY. It will be bimiful of new and interesting features such as only a Kansas girl can get up. It will have its literary gems yet it will not be a magazine, but a very lively and thoroughly up-to-date newspaper.
The girls have several secrets which they will disclose in the special edition. They refuse to reveal until that time all of the features but enough is known of their plans so warrant the promise that the paper is going to be very much hot-siuff.
The special edition will contain a full account of the Nebraska game to be played on the day of its publication, which will be reported by a special correspondent.
The paper will be profusely illustrated and will be a model from an artistic standpoint. there are several artists on the staff of the Woman's Weekly.
The managers of the special edition have very generously offered to give all proceeds to the football fund of the Athletic association. Every professor, every student, every friend of the University should order an extra supply of papers. He will want to read them all and he will aid a worthy cause.
Send in your order for *extra copies* of the Woman's edition of the WEEKLY.
Cannot Prohibit Football by Law
Kansas City Star: The death of a student of the Georgia University from injuries receive on the gridiron has caused the introduction of a bill in the Legislature forbidding the game of foot ball in the state. If such a law can be enacted it will meet the usual fate of those statutes which seek to interfere with the rights and liberties of the people. It will not be enforced unless the young men of Georgia have much less pluck and spirit than those of Missouri and Kansas. Where one person is killed in the game of foot ball, a hundred are fatally injured by runaways and on steam cars, and yet no legislature—not even in Georgia—would be so stupid as to think of abolishing horses and railway trains. Foot ball is a good, wholesome American sport, and when its results in accidents and fatalities it is not the fault of the game, but of the players, who become too reckless, but who hold even this hazardous privilege a good deal more precious than the protection with which meddlesome law-makers would surround them.
Fine hundred and thirty-five dollars was the amount cleared for the athletic association from the Iowa game, more money than has ever before been realized from a like event. If the athletic association is cleared from debt this year, of which there is now little doubt, it will be duly large to the wise management of Ralph McKinnie.
A certain fraternity in the University possessed more love for style—and money—than loyalty to old K. U.
SHARPS AND FLATS.
Nevertheless they went to McCook field in state. They held their heads high in the air; they fingered lovingly the few coins that remained in their pockets.
This is a strange story.
They asked for reduced rates to the Iowa-Kansas game.
Here ends chapter one, and here begins chapter two.
An Iowa man was hurt. He belonged to a fraternity—the self same fraternity to which the heroes of this tale belonged.
Anger and naughty words followed.
They were refused.
It was necessary to take him off the grounds. No carriage could be procured. All were occupied save one, and that one was hired by our heroes.
Could it be taken?
"Well, can we take it?"
"Does he belong to our frat?"
"Yes."
Because one of the editors of the Woman's Edition laughingly referred to the "local dash," or a "jim dash" as the "jim-jam," a WEEKLY reporter thinking it too good a joke to keep, threatened to report it in the paper.
It did our hearts good to see Professor Dunlap and Professor Adams embrace each on the foot ball field, after the game was over and when they thought no one was looking.
Fraternal feeling, brotherly love, faith and fidelity—don't mention it.
"No."
A Parody.
And here ends this strange tale.
Here is one of the jingles that tickled the hearts of the men and maidens of K. U, last Saturday.
Come along and get you ready For to wear the red and blue
For there's goin' to be a game 'tween
Iowa and K. U. —
Where you alls know everybody and they all knows you.
Get a button of Sal Walker keep away the hoo-dool!
when you hear those roots yell so loud
All wave your colors, your red and blue
so proud—
And when the game is over, 'twill be sung by the crowd.
There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight.
There'll be girls for Captain Kennedy In this good old K. S. U. Who'll be loyal to their colors Of the Crimson and the Blue. There'll be girls for Mose and Foster Speak and Voigts and Poorman, too. Who adore the striped sweaters, footba
Who adore the striped sweaters, football shoes and nose guard too.
When you hear the captain's signal call Guards to the right—then Sal will snap the ball,
Then watch and see that Iowa man get a fall
The K. U. tackling means something after all.
Then hail to the our Coach
On him shall glory fall
He's a doctor and a scholar
And a judge of good football
So hurrah for the Woodruff
He's the man who knows it all
And he's made our sturdy Jay Hawkers
Form a rush line like a wall.
We make those their students can
heres to D. Woodruff we love you
best of all,
And you must be our coach forever
Or we'll have no coach at all
There's a hot time on McCook field today.
CHORUS.
When you hear those merry students call
Rock Chalk, in Howe, you know that
Rock Chalk Jay Hawk, I love you best of all.
And when you see K. U. boys down on the ball
Means a hot game on the old grid iron today.

On account of the Chancellor's reception, and its popularity among the students, the attendance of the Snow Literary was not as large as usual. The regular program was not carried out but instead, extemporaneous speaking, and business filled the time till 8 o'clock when the society adjourned to give those who wished, an opportunity to attend the reception.
A resolution was passed to challenge the Adelphic society for a debate; so in the future a debate may be expected between the two societies, which will cause great interest, and tend to stimulate that friendly rivalry, which is the surest fore runner of each society's advancement.
SNOW LITERARY.
The extemporaneous speaking proved an interesting and amusing variation from the regular programme, and the short time allowed each, gave many an opportunity to occupy the floor.
The programme prepared for next Friday night, will be beyond doubt the finest given. The literary part will exceed any previous one in variety and excellence of its numbers, while the debate, on account of the extra length of preparation will probably be better worked out, and present more points of general information, than any preceding one.

Meeting of the Kansas Academy of Science.
At the annual meeting of the Academy which was held at Baldwin last week, some of the leading scientific men of the state were present and took part in the proceedings. Dr. S. W. Williston, the retiring president, spoke one evening upon "Science in Education." He argued that on account of the time required to do the work of an ordinary college course and to take professional training also, as in medicine or law, that it is not practicable for the student to do the work of the entire college course, but he should devote himself to those studies only that have a direct bearing on his profession. Technical courses are being extended to four years, and if a man takes both courses complete, he will average 28 years of age before he is ready to practice his profession. The advantages of optionals in the college course is shown in the growth of those institutions where the optional system prevails and the decline of those that adhere to the old classical course. The latter course is of value only to those who have the leisure and means to devote their lives to this kind of culture. Even in the most advanced institutions there is too little attention paid to the natural sciences and too much to purely literary and classical studies. At the Kansas University we require as much as five years of language study and but twenty weeks of natural science!! The latter studies are just as valuable for development of the mind as the former, and very much more practical. Every student who graduates should be thoroughly conversant with at least one natural science. The high schools may do something in the students for the University in science, if the University requires this for entrance. At present everything is sacrificed to preparation in Language, and the sciences are neglected. The lecture was heartily applauded, and it was voted that the Academy order it printed immediately for distribution through the state. A large number of valuable papers were read during the three days of the session; among these may be mentioned, several on orinthology by D. E. Lanz in which the valuable Goss Ornithological collection at Topea, was discussed, and lists of Kansas and North American birds were presented. Percy J. Parrott, now of Manhattan, illustrated his very practical paper on the elm-tree girder: B.B. Smyth told of a Floral Horologue for Kansas; L. E. Sayre discussed the plants of the state that are of pharmaceutical interest; S. W. Williston told of the work of his department in the study of the Mosasauria, and in the discovery of the new Labyrinthodont from the Kansas Carbonifer, ous; J. W. Beede spoke of the work that he is doing in connection with the state Geological Survey in the study of the geology of Trego County; F. H. Snow read a very practice paper on the extremes and means of Kansas Climate in which he illustrated by charts the variations in temperature, in rainfall, in the velocity of the winds, and in the cloudiness of the sky. He showed very graphically that the poor crops depend more on the distribution of the rain than its quantity. A mathematical paper on the Viscosity of ether by A. St. C. Dunstan showed some important work of the Physics department, as did also the paper on the Wheastone

of marine telephony without wires, and told what successes had attended his experiments on the light ships. E.H.S. Bailey spoke of the work he has been doing on the dehydration of Gypsie and the study of Cement-plasters. Geo.F. Weida discussed the decompositions of some diazox compounds with methyl alcohol. The Secretary of the Academy, E.B.Knerr, spoke of Relativity in Science. Mr.Bauer showed by drawings and photographs the tendency of modern dynamo construction. The secretary read a paper by J.R.Mead, one of the oldest members, on the migration of birds. A very important contribution to knowledge was given by D.H. Otis on Root tubercles and their production by inoculation. He showed that in the case of the Soy bean, for instance, no tubercules are produced on the roots, as the plant ordinarily grows in the soil of this state, but if the soil is innoculated with soil from Massachusetts, the tubercules are abundant.
Mrs. Helen Campbell, of Manhattan, gave an outline of the work in the department of household economics at the college.
A large number of other papers were read either by title, or the summaries were given briefly. Altogether the meeting was a very profitable and enjoyable one, and the workers in the various fields of science were stimulated by this opportunity for comparison and discussion.

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 13. -- Tee result of
the game today in still in doubt. By acu
tual number of points scored it stands. Ne
braska six, Kansas five, but there are a
number of points in dispute.
The center for Nebraska is a Tecumseh farmer who came to Lincoln last night to play in the game. The regular center is Oury but his wind is not good so the Nebraskans had to hnnt another man.
The Nebraskas started in with the intention of winning the game by fair means or foul. There has been a constant wrangle from the time Manager McKinnie was met at the train by Manager Oury, Friday
At the end of the first half the score stood 6 to 5 in Nebraska's favor. When only twenty five minutes more of the second half were to be played the score still stood 6 to 5. When our boys kicked a field goal and Nebraska fell on the ball, the N. U. boys claimed that the score was in their favor and not ours, this making Nebraska's score 11, to our 5. A wrangle was the inevitable result.
However, the news did not cause the delay of the woman's edition, although the girls had been planning for weeks ahead to make this number of the WEEKLY a
some of the "sure thing" idea of the Nebraskans disappeared and they went into the game not over confident.
R. C GOWEIL DYAD.
The Assistant to Prot. Dyce at Kansas University. Succumb.
Last night at 9:40 Kalfp Curtis Gowell died at his home near Linwood after an illness of about three weeks. The cause of his death was intermittent malarial fever.
A short time ago Mr. Gowell was taken home, but it was not then thought that his condition was serious. He gradually grew worse and on Thursday had a hemorrhage of the stomach and from that time grew slowly weaker till death came last night
Mr. Gowell was born in the house where he died on February 19, 1873. After country schooling he attended the Friends academy at Tonganoxie, graduating in 1891. He taught school one year, and in 1892 he entered Kansas university, graduating four years later. During the last year of school he became very valuable as an assistant in Prof. Dyche's department, taking up thoroughly all the lines of work that Prof. Dyche himself had charge of, and was made assistant to Prof. Dych last summer. Prof. Dyche says he is one of the few men he has had as an assistant who seemed to take an interest in the work, and beable to grasp all its parts and carry it on even in the absence of Prof. Dyche himself.

evening. Not content with but one official, Cornell, of Lincoln, Oury insisted upon two Nebraska men, the other being Wilson of Omaha.
Mr. McKinnie and Coach Woodruff were firm, however, for a fair deal, but not until a half hour before time for the game to be called did Nebraska consent to abide by the original agreement and accept Mr. Kleinhans for referee.
In the first half Cowgill slugged Block-berger in the jaw and was ruled off but Nebraska refused to play and Captain Kennedy yielded and Cowgill continued to play. In the second half the ball was kicked out of bounds and Hess was held by spectators preventing him from getting it.
Kennedy and Woodruff protest the game. Woodruff made the proposition to play Nebraska Monday from sunrise to sunset and let the result determine the standing of the two teams.
Nebraska refused and insisted that the score be counted. Before the game one of the Nebraska half backs made the statement that Nebraska would win if they had to kill off all the Kansas players. There is no enthusiasm here over result

K. U. did not exactly meet defeat, but K. U. was not victorious. The game was broken up in a row, when there was twenty-five minutes more to play. However, that does not necessarily mean that K. U. would not have won the game, but our Jay Hawk boys, as gentleman, refused to play with men who wrangled over points
good, old send-off to our football heroes for adding another clean triumph to their already long list of spotless victories.
The game was the hardest one of the season. Both teams were in the best of condition, and both were confident of winning. The result of the first half was a surprise to the students at home, but notwithstanding that they felt sure our men would play like tigers in the second half.
The football team left on the 8:18 train over the Santa Fe Friday morning. About twenty-five in all went to Lincoln, including football "fans," newspaper correspondents and the subs. The team was in excellent condition, Voigts having recovered from his cold, and Kennedy's eye which was slightly injured in a practice game the other evening, was all right again. Coach Woodruff anticipated a hard game with the Nebraskans, but was confident that our boys would win after the hard training they have been undergoing.
At Lincoln much the same feeling of confidence that Nebraska would win prevailed The Nebraska team has been in hard training for two weeks with all energies set on beating Kansas at all hazards. Last Saturday Nebraska had a game scheduled with the Medics at Kansas City, but when they thought of this being a good chance for Kansas to see their method of playing they cancelled the game. In fact the Nebraskans have been "keeping still and sawing wood" and so confident were they of winning that at the time of the arrival of our team at Lincoln betting was two to one in favor of Nebraska.

Adelphic Society Meeting
The Adelphic Literary Society had an unusually large and enthusiastic meeting, last Saturday evening. The program conceived of piano solos by Miss Weber, Miss Criss, and Mr. Osborne; declamations by Messrs Peterson, Brady, and Lacy; extemporaneous speech on "The Recent Election," by Mr Morgan; original poem by Mr. Olson on "The Society work;" the program closed with the debate "Resolved, that a unicameral system of government is superior to a bicamelar system." The speakers for the affirmative were Mr. Kuttinger and Mr. Allen; on the negative, Mr. Layton and Mr. Jackson.
Prof. Adams gave an interesting critic's report. He emphasized the idea that a literary society should be a means of mental training, as well as of entertainment; that a debate should, give practice in quick logical thinking, rather than mere eloquence. He suggested, as a helpful feature of the society programs, the writing of original continued stories, the various stages of the plot to be worked out by individual members.

THE REGENTS HAVE ADOPETD IT.
PROFESSOR F. O. MARVIN'S PLAN
FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE CAMPUS.
A GENERAL IMPROVEMENT.
The Accommodations for New Buildings, the Plans for New Walks and Winding Driveways-The Grade Over the Hill Reduced.
If Professor Marvin's plan for the improvement of the campus is carried out to fulfillment, Kansas University will some day have the most beautiful college campus in the west.
During the past summer Professor Marvin has prepared a typographical map of the grounds directly around and owned by the University, showing the desired improvements for the campus. This map has been submitted to the regents for their approval, and they have voted for its adoption. The beginning of the fulfillment has come. The new seven foot walk which was laid last summer between the library and Frazer hall follows Professor Marvin's plan, as do also the five foot walk in front of the library, and the one leading from the Chancellor's residence.
So much is encouraging. However, it will be many years before these plans, which seem almost as day dreams now, can be brought to the reality itself, and many boards of regents will have met between now and then, and perhaps have done away with the plans altogether.
Professor Marvin would have the city vacate that part of Mississippi street which leads up from the foot of the hill, and that part of Adams between Oread and Mississippi streets. This would give a great deal of clear space. Orend street, leading north from the main gateway, is at present 110 feet wide, and would be divided its entire length, the mindle of it being parked.
On the ground owned by the University directly north of the library, two buildings could be placed. Across the street available space could be found for the accommodation of four more. Of these the one directly west of the library, Professor Marvin would have as a Convocation hall, for our chapel is much too small for the crowds that gather there on commencement and other occasions. A little northwest of this assembly hall, in the space obtained, partly from the vacation of Mississippi street, could be placed another large building, preferably the gymnasium. A little further down the hill would be found the Commons, a general eating house or lunch room connected with the University.
Altogether, Professor Marvin has found good sites for thirteen different buildings provided the chemistry building be torn down and a larger one put in its place. Of these buildings, four would be west of Snow hall, one—the shop building—a little above the shops and boiler house, on the slopes of the bill, and one occupying the ground now filled up with the pipe house and the carpenter shop.
Between Fraser hall, the chemistry building and Snow hall, an irregular angle would be formed, and for the straight wooden walks now used, a five foot asphalt walk, forming a Y from the two west doors of the main building, would be substitut. ed. Another quadrangle, larger and more regular, would be between Snow hall and the buildings west of it.
From the foot of the hill ob the north, a driveway would start, and so wind around to the west up over the slope of the hill, that the grade would be reduced five percent whereas now it is eleven, as wells taking one along a very pretty drive through the wooded part of our campus. This drive-way would turn and come in directly from the west, follows its way around Snow hall, pass between the Chemistry and the Main buildings, lead on in front of the Physics building and down over the brow of the hill to the southeast. Of course, other drives would join this main road
With regard to the asphalt walks, it is the plan to carry on the seven foot walk, which leads to the steps of the Main building, over to the Physics building, while a five foot walk would lead to Snow hall and beyond.

What do we want with Woman's Rights? ___
The boys may make all the fun of us they want to next week, but we have our inning now.
We shall attend classes next week, and in some way try to account for so many absent marks.
Here's to our football boys! And as we one read at the end of a flowery article, may the red clover of happiness grow knee deep in their door yard.
--teen demirens, in the Methodist College, are sufficient to cause expulsion, and consequently some of the boys have left school. All this because they attended a football game! We invite them to K. U.
"N. B." writes Professor Miller, at the end of his article upon the Yerkes Astronomical Observatory, in the Lawrence Journal. "Kansas university has no astronomical observatory."
It was observed during the last week, or two that the young men expected nothing in the Woman's Edition of the WEEKLY but a lot of "poetry" and "literary gems" in the form of nice cute little stories. To speak but mildly, it all made us very, very tired.
The K. U. Ilder has just been received from the printers and is one of the prettiest little magazines ever issued by college students. The contents are of a high standard, and among the contributors are such well known names as Will White's and Prof. Carruth's. Mr. Hilliard Johnson is to be congratulated upon his enterprise in issuing such a magazine in connection with the Weekly.
A Topека paper sug ests that bookbinders upholster the backs of dictionaries for the children to sit upon, which reminds us that we can go Topeka one better. We venture to suggest that someone—no matter who—upholster the backs and seats of the class-room chairs for the K U. students to sit upon. The only comfortable chairs that the University of Kansas possesses are in the library and the physics building.
It is a good thing to have your attention taken away from your books occasionally. You come to realize that there is something outside of books, and, by degrees, that you have a mind of your own which is capable of thinking and reasoning. The professors may object, they may claim that you are not paying full attention to your studies, but if you are receiving their equivalent in useful knowledge, you may well feel repaid even if you do get a grade III in the language of the prehistoric Egyptians. The best classes in the University are those in which a great deal of original thinking has to be done. Do not think that the Womans' board is advising you to skip class in order to loiter around the hall, just to see what you can see, but it does advise you to always seize the opportunity of obtaining useful and practical knowledge, be it outside of books or in.
A Dramatic Society.
Now that the subject of Glee and Banji clubs is being agitated, it is time to speak of a Dramatic society—not such a society as was formed last year although that was good, and its purpose was very good—but a society that shall take in all classes of the University, a society that shall interest all students.
There is plenty of material among our 800 or 900 students to make a fairly good company. Several have entered K. U. this year who have marked histrionic ability, and some few of whom have already appeared upon the stage.
The Woman's Board offers the suggestion that instead of the Senior play, which is nothing more than a farce from beginning to end, and in every particular, that every class in K. U help towards forming a Dramatic society for the benefit of the Students Loan Fund.
Many have asked "What's the use of the Students Loan Fund anyway?" but because you do not hear of anyone deriving any benefit from it, it is no sign that no one does receive benefit from it.
By every class taking an interest in the formation of such a society, by every class electing representatives to form such a society, by every class giving all its dramatic talent, a Dramatic society could be formed in K. U. that would most certainly achieve success.
And more than that, it must be understood from the very beginning that every cent the company makes above expenses, shall be turned into the Treasury of the Students Loan Fund.
Drinking at Parties.
And here comes a subject that we would sooner not speak of.
It has been the habit of certain individuals to hasten away to the dressing room at the end of a dance number, and there to "refresh" themselves with a few swaddles of some intoxicating liquor. Their number is few, or at any rate we hope it is, but even so, it is bad enough. It is no compliment to the young woman with whom you are dancing—in fact it does not show that you have any respect for womankind at all—to breath the taint of some vile-smelling liquor in her face as you talk to her or whirl her through the mazes of a waltz
A young man who has formed such a habit, was asked why he did it "I can't stand it," he replied, "to dance until 2 or 3 o'clock, without some sort of a tonic. It would wear me out." How then can the girls? How can they stand it to dance until 2 or 3 o'clock without some sort of a tonic? And yet the men claim that they are stronger and can stand more than the women.
N doubt, some people who read this article will think the University is going to rack and ruin, that University society has become nothing more than a maudlin crowd, that principles are inculcates here which are in bold opposition to the state government, or something of the sort. For their benefit we will most decidedly say that such is not the case. We speak only of the few in society who are addicted to such a habit, and these few are to be found in the society of every town no matter how small that town may be. Would that it were not so.
The Medics Again.
That K U. can play a clean, gentlemanly game of football is undoubted; that K U. can play in an honest manner against brute force, and win, is undoubted; that K U. can win from the Medics again is undoubted, and yet, from our point of view, the boys are in a certain way lowering their dignity by agreeing to play againn a team full of "sluggers" and professionals. However, let them do it, and they will again show the Kansas City Medics, as well as the individuals who are berating our team, that they are gentlemen and honest athletes on the gridron as well as off of it. We have faith in our football men, and Dr. Woodruff who gets closer to them than any one else, has unbounded faith in them too.
At Smith College, some of the society girls have formed a "Marrying Club." The purpose of this organization is to discourage all flirtation, as well as the desire of most girls to lead men on to a proposal of marriage. One of the vows taken is that each member of the club will accept the first fellow who proposes to her. The boys around old Smith have found this out, and it is feared that they are taking advantage of the situation. What freakish notion will College girls take in their heads next?
A Denver club, called the "T. S.," consists of twelve married women, and two young girls. Upon being asked to explain their name, they reply, "It means either the Twelve Slaves or the Two Spinsters. Construct it as you think best."
The Baker students who drove down to Lawrence to attend the Iowa-Kansas game, each recived ten demers. Fifteen demirens, in the Methodist College, are sufficient to cause expulsion, and consequently some of the boys have left school. All this because they attended a football game! We invite them to K. U.
In an editorial article upon the "New Interest in Western Football," the Kansas City Star for Nov. 8, but voices the sentiment of K. U. enthusiasts when it pays such strong compliments to Dr. Wylie G. Woodruff.
We wonder if "Shadoof and Sakiyeh," the subject of Ed. Little's address before the Kansas Irrigation Association, may not be the names of some of the Egyptian dogs that are always barking at the pyramids.
The Podunk Club.
Podunk, Podunk, Podunk-ee!
We are all bunk all bunk-ee
Those who heard this inspiring call emanating from a very well filled, express wagon Monday evening, Nov. 1, may have stopped a moment to wonder at its significance. If they had read the Weekly of October 5, they probably divined that it was the cry of the great Podunk Literary society, an account of whose organization is recorded in that issue.
This society originated under the influence of the full September moon, and each subsequent moon has called its members forth, desirous of airing their literary talent, and themselves incidentally. The weather of Nov. 1., not being favorable for an outdoor meeting, Prof. Templin's home was very kindly offered as a meeting place.
The following program will give an idea of the character of the entertainment:
Short stories, Prof. Stevens.
Short stories, Prof. Stevens.
Song, "Isaac Abbott." Mrs. Dunlap.
Essay (blank verse) Miss Gallbo.
Song (in the Mashona language) Mr.
Brown.
Dialogue (in costume) Misses Watson and Gillham.
(Apples)
Debate—Affirmative, Mr. Barber, Miss Oliver; negative, Mr. Hoog, Miss Suttilt,
(More apples).
Recitation. "The Sunday School Girl," Miss Newson.
Reading, "The Bear St ry that Alex 'st maked up hiself," Prof. Dunlap.
(Cider, doughnuts, pumpkin pie, nuts, etc., etc.)
Mrs. Dunlap's song greatly moved her hearers. Facial and vocal expressions aided in bringing out the pathetic sentiment of the words, and when the sad end was reached and Isaac's body "was mingled with its native clay," the emotion of the company could no longer be suppressed.
Miss Gallooo's "lines" were greatly appreciated. It was a matter of regret to her hearers that lack of time prevented her from giving all of them.
The debate, upon a very important question was listened to with much interest. After duly weighing the arguments on both sides, the judges decided unanimously in favor of the affirmative. The decision was perhaps influenced by the following outburst from one of the speakers on the affirmative, "In the language of Nero, 'A period of high temperature will prevail in the ancient metropolis this evening'."
The dialogue was of a didactic nature. It was a lesson on the ostrich, and proved highly edifying to all present.
The society adjourned to meet on some future moonlight night, then drove back to town, much pleased with itself and its entertainers.
Prof. Dunlap's reading of James White-
comb Riley's story was truly delightful,
and elicited much applause.

The Bulletin of Kansas Grasshoppers
The department of Entomology of the Kansas state university has issued a bulletin in upon the more destructive grasshoppers of Kansas. In recent years certain localities have been great sufferers from the destruction caused by native grasshoppers. Prof. Hunter has visited those places most affected and the bulletin contains a report of his observations, and treats the subject more fully. In speaking of grasshoppers the life, history and habits are first given under the topics "Where Eggs Are Laid." The means of destroying them come under the head of "Remedies, Natural and Artificial." The natural remedy is that they are food for native birds, domestic fowls, and, among the quadrupeds, for squirrels, chimchunks, weasels, etc.
Under the artificial remedies comes the topic "Alfalfa and the Grasshoppers," "Disking" the alfalfa grounds is one way of exterminating them, and is fully explained in the Bulletin. Among general remedies given, the use of the "hopper-dozer" is the best method of destroying these pests.
Descriptions of the most destructive locust in this state are given. The Rocky Mountain locust is the most destructive. The lesser migratory locust, the red-legged locust, the two-striped locust, the differential locust, which caused the serious damage in the southwestern part of the state this year, and the long winged locust are described. There are five plates with explanations. Some of them are from the original drawings of Miss Ella Weeks, now a member of the entomology class, and of Miss Mary Wellman, a former student of the university.
Ten thousand copies of the Bulletin have been published. Through all the fall correspondence has been coming to Prof. Hunter and Chancellor Snow from all parts of Kansas. The railroad companies are asking for copies of the Bulletin for distribution throughout their territory.
The Lecture Course.
The University lecture course has come to be regarded as one of the established institutions of the University, to which all students owe special allegiance. The main idea of the lecture course is to furnish good entertainments at reasonable rates. Certainly we all need occasional recreation, and there is no simpler nor better way in which to secur it, than to attend a good lecture or concert. The lecture committee is to be congratulated upon the uniform excellence of the talent secured for this year's course.
Miss Katherine Alvord is a reader who has met with much applause in her chosen line. W. M. R. French of the Chicago Art Institute, is a chalk talker who always charms his audience with his fluent use of language and his facile handling of the crayon. The Welsh prize singers, a double quartette, comes highly recommended for their skill in producing good music. The Olie Torbett Concert company, stands high in the ranks of musical organizations and a real treat is promised to those who hear them.
Jahu Dewitt Miller, a well known platform favorite, will deliver one of his lectures in the course. And last, Gen. Gordon, the famous southern orator, one of the best known speakers in this country, will deliver his celebrated lecture upon "The Last Days of the Confederacy" Gen. Gordon's repute as a speaker, and as a public man are so well known that a large audience will surely greet him when he appears in Lawrence. These six entertainments above enumerated may be enjoyed by any student in the University for the sum of one dollar. Certainly no such list of attractions was ever before offered at so reasonable a figure. It is to be hoped that all students will avail themselves of the opportunity here presented. Let us all unite to make this course the most successful ever given in the University. Let us crowd the chapel with a large and enthusiastic audience, and show thereby our appreciation of the good things which have been furnished for us at so reasonable a price.
A Sad Case.
A well known University young man has a lady friend who lives some miles out of the city. On Saturday evening he rode out on his bicycle to spend Sunday at her home. Enirely contrary to his expectations however, a sudden change in the weather and the condition of the roads occurred, making locomotion by bicycle out of the question. On Monday morning, therefore, behold this same young man and his bicycle making an undignified entrance into the city through the rain and mud, on his girl's father's lumber wagon.

THE PASSING OF THE S*NIOR
A "CO-ED" INCIDENT.
Oh yes, I am sorry to see youou,
Now that it’s over and you’re A. B.
Properly grieved and all that, you know;
Just a touch less than you, you’ll see
“We shall meet somewhere again I hope,
Some time!”—Yes, when you’re fifty and fat,
And my husband has gotten a fortune from
– so p.
Or tin or a commonplace something like that.
And you’ll put up your glasses and say,
“Oh, yes,
I believe that I knew you at old K. U.”
And I shall say, “What is the name? Hark-
ow”
—Oh W bite! Was it you or your brother,
I knew!
For you will forget in a year or so
And I in a twelve month—perhaps eleven,
That we were—just good friends, you know.

"A Horry Head is a Crown of Honor
It if be found in the way of righteousness.
A borey crown may prove a time-worn head
Amid the clouds, above the soil of earth,
Or it may be a whited sepulchre
Conceaing the corruption hid within.
Gray hairs are but gray hairs, and honor honor.
If "11" the wearing days and rights and years
Have seen that head in labor with good deeds
And planning for the welfare of mankind;
If every whitened hair upon that crown
Was blenched to pureness by a loving care
For God's poor, or the devils', which they be
Or paled in horror at some hideous wrong
Or worn out by sorrow; then were that head ined a crown of honor.
But if that head so heavy with the years
Were heavier yet with sin, if all its cares
Had been to grind out usury from the poor,
Benedict had to leave it.
By treading lowly merit under foot;
If every shifting breeze had found those sails
Trimmed to its breeze; if the struggling good
Had only found ambiguous comfort there;
Those hairs were but so many witnesses

UN MAUVAIS QUART
d'HEURE
I was starting down town the other morning when my wife's voice arrested me at the edge of the pavement. "Henry," s he called, "Don't forget that you're going down town with me to get my hat. I'll be down at the office at lunch time." The door closed.
Whether other wives practice this method of clinching a bargain when the eyes of the world is, upon a man, and the street car conductor is executing a fine bit of staccato-agitato with the bell cord, I don't know; but I do know that this device has found favor with Julia—Furthermore, Julia knows that though I may have declared for the third time at breakfast that I will offer myself as a candidate for the rack before I will do the particular thing she asks, I am clay in her hands when she attacks me through a crack in the front door.
Lunch time found me nervously awaiting my wife, who presently appeared, as serene a creature as ever oppressed a husband.
"What's the matter with the hat you've got on?" I ventured to inquire, gazing at her with admiration.
"This!" with a face of horror, "why, Henry Parkinson, this is my summer hat!" and with an expression in her eyes which intimated that my stupidity would in the death of her before many months, my wife shook the dust of my office matting from her feet and proceeded with majesty in the direction of the elevator.
She maintained a severe silence in the cable-car until we had reached Jewett street, where the usual number of shopping women and school children who take lunch at the Colonial began to stream out of the car. Suddenly Julia nudged my elbow, her gaze riveted upon the gaiters of the old gentleman opposite,—"look quick Henry," she muttered, "the girl next to the girl with glasses,—the one with the green Russian blouse, on and the square parcel, and the little girl in red shoes. That's the kind I want, with a velvet crown and agigrettes in the back!"
I peered carefully up and down the aisle, endeavoring to stow away in their proper pigeon holes, the half dozen details presented to me, and searching through my mental dictionary for the word aigrette.
Julia gave me a look, compounded of reproach and disgust, the look she wears when I fancy she is regretting our marriage.
"I don't see any red shoes," I was at last forced to admit.
"We will get off at the next street," she friedily remarked.
The establishment of Mrs. Clyde Van Brant Smithers, Fashionable Milliner and Modiste, is to be found on Upper Court street, one block east of the Stockbridge station, and straight across from the postoffice. I shall be able to tell you this valuable fact, as well as the exact shades in Mrs. Mithers' very correct necktie, and which of her front teeth is adorned with a gold filling should you have any use for this information twenty years from today.
I think Ika herself was a little impressed as we made our way down Mrs.
Clyde's reception room between rows of elegant lay figures, exhibiting every possible and impossible style of coiflure and every degree of waxen innancy As for me, I was abject, and become more and more so as I caught sight of my familiar overcoat reflected from a half dozen full length mirrors.
A stalwart woman, wearing a remarkable gown and an equally remarkable smile, came forward to meet us.
"You would like to try something in a large hat," said this august person with the air of one who does not invite contradiction.
"I guess I'll look at small ones, something quite simple," my wife returned.
"They are not wearing small hats this season," announced Mrs. C. V. Smithers bening a cold blue eye upon my poor Julia. "How do you like this?" producing a towering structure of shiney material, trimmed with some sort of green stuff and blue feathers. "This royal blue is really very swell, and these fish scales are on all the pattern hats."
"Oh, I want something plain and pretty," pleaded my wife.
"Pretty!" gasped Mrs. Smithers, "why this is simply beautiful, and so genteel. You could wear it in New York City any day. Nothing is plain this year."
"Try this.—I'm sure your husband will like this. It's a perfectly lovely thing and just look at that crown! One of these braided felts was worn by Mrs. Gerald Fitz Doolan at the horse show last week. Just try it on, my dear. There, well over the eyes, and a trifle to one side." She set upon my wife's head a monstrosity in red orange and navy blue.
"Do take-it-off, protested Julia, 'I'm sure it isn't becoming."
Mrs. Clyde clasped her hands and allowed a shade of pain to creep over her well disciplined features. "I'm sure it was simply made for her!" and she appealed to a blond-haired, wasp-waisted young person, hovering in our vicinity. "You really couldn't wear a little hat, your face is much too short and round for a little hat," appealing once more to her blond assistant.
"But I won't have a big hat," Julia assured her with attempt at firmness. Whereupon Mrs. Smithers with the air of one who allows herself to be put to base uses, brought forward a tiny affair over which brooded a solemn fowl, having the head of a parrot and the body of a woodcock.
"Oh, I couldn't wear a bird," gasped Julia, recalling, doubtless, certain moral instructions of hers to the children. "I should be so swicked."
Mrs. Clyde Van Brant Smithers eyes us both with stern disapproval. "Birds are worn by every body, she announced, and set the despised hat with careful violence upon its proper peg
"Now here is the sweetest thing we have it in the shop," interrupted the blond assistant, with conciliatory intent, holding up for the ravishment of my senses a ghastly green and yellow creation, glistening with rhinestone and surmounted by swaying black plumes.
"Just notice the development of the color scheme," demanded she of the blond hair and the contracted waist.
I noticed it.
"It's only $13, she confided, and will you just look at those tips." "Really I couldn't afford that," objected Julia, who wanted new dining room chairs and even dreamed of an art square for the back parlor. "Besides it wouldn't be suitable for the mother of a family, would it?"
"Well, I guess I'll come in aggin, that is, I will wait till next week—Oh, I mean I will go some where else, faltered my truthful Julia; and we crept out, smiled upon by waxen lay figures in pattern hats, and glared at by Mrs. Clyde Van Brant Smithers. M.
"It has been very much admired by people of taste" observed Mrs. Clyde with waxing spirit.
People expect to see Vassar overlooking the Hudson, and several dignified buildings near Poughkeepsie, within sight of the river, are often pointed out as Vassar college. The college, however, is not on the river. It is two miles east and not within sight of the Hudson. Nevertheless the grounds of Vassar are very beautiful and in the loveliness of spring one is sure that nothing unless it were the constant presence of a fine stream could add to their charms. Evergreens are everywhere. The avenue leading to the main building is lined with them; the athletic grounds are enclosed by a thick hedge of them; not so thick, however, but that a reporter's eye can pierce their depth on an annual field day; fine cedars form the walls and roof of a beautiful walk called "The Pines," in whose shade one can see in fine weather students walking and talking. There are other walks, one winding through the glen, another climbing to the top of "Sunset Hill," both beautiful, and made more so in winter by scattering groups of rosy-faced girls in red Tams, in summer, by shirt waist girls with
VASSAR
bunches of little purple violets in their hands. Near the lodge is a pretty little lake with a few boats on it. Around its edge the trees lean to see the reflection of their tall, beautiful selves in the water. The beauty of this lake has been the subject of many a freshman's theme. There are "Sunsets on the Lake," "Twilights on the Lake" and "Lakes in Winter," and scores of them. Strange to say, I never heard of a "Sunrise on the Lake."
The buildings at Vassar are motley Main hall, the largest one, is old and plain, for the bricks are faded and worn. It is a fine example of pure Renaissance. Strong Hall, which was built by Mr. Rockefeller, is handsome and new and presents a striking contrast with old Main. The effect is almost as glaring as that of a Scotch plaid would be if it were placed next to a soft toned old Indian shawl. There are, besides these, two new buildings, just finished, one of which the college owes to the generosity of Mr. Rockefeller. The gymnasium I cannot pass without saying that it is the finest women's gymnasium in this country. The Vassar Brothers' Laboratories, ivy-covered, Music Hall, and the quaint old observatory where Maria Mitchell "lived and labored" complete the list of college buildings. Thirty years ago, you know, Vassars was known to most people as the place where Maria Mitchell was. You might know the place immediately even from the rather foreign looking lodge at the entrance, to the south of the little stream that flows through the glen, but you really would not know Vassar until you had become acquainted with the life of its students. The life of Vassar girls and in fact all college girls is generally represented to be a rosy lined affair, with no gray. In this conception a college girl sits on a couch loaded with beautiful pillows, twanging the strings of her guitar, while an open box of Huyler's occupies the study table where an open book ought to be. Sometimes college life is treated rather frivolously but that attitude does not usually last long. A mid-year examination or a "flunk note" usually terminates it and makes life turn "gray not rosy."
A simple account of what a Vassar girl must do will give an idea of the earnestness that must be hers if she succeeds at all. One of the first things a student does on coming here is to sign the Constitution of the Self Government Association, which means that she pledges herself to have her light out at 10 o'clock, to take one hour's exercise and to attend chapel daily. Then there are five days hard work. The rising bell rings at 7 o'clock; breakfast is at 7:30; recitations begin at 8:30 and end at 5:30. Everyone has at least three recitations a day. Music is extra. Three hours of recitations, six hours of preparation for the following day one hour's exercise, chapel and meals, besides committee work and incidentals require concentration and work for their accomplishment before the 10 o'clock bell.
I do not mean to say that college has not its play days, for it has, and the students take hold of the fun in the same hearty spirit in which the work is done. For instance, the night the juniors decided to give the wedding. It was just after the Vanderbilt-Mariborough ceremony, so they proposed to give again that service, making alterations to have it as ludicrous as possible. It was given in Strong hall. The tables were taken out of the dining room and the chairs arranged as would befit a chapel. Palms and flowers were brought in for the occasion, and all this was being done when the ceremony itself was not yet arranged. While some girls were furnishing rhymes and ideas for the completion of the service, others were hastening in all directions to gather the costumes. This is the spirit in which Vassar girls accomplish their work and play. At about 8 o'clock the bridal party entered, preceded by choir boys, who sang to the tune of the wedding Song from Lohengrin:
"Now all you guests,
So handsomely dressed,
Trying to appear at your very best.
You've all got the mon,
But you can't have the fun
Of marying your girl to an Englishman."
Queen Victoria was there, all the Vanderbiltts, the Duke and Duchess of Marlborough, and all New York society. The service was witty. The wedding party came out singing to Mendelssohn's Wedding March:
"Here comes Willie's daughter, and the Duke who came and sought her, Now he'll take across the water Con, and her father's million dollars. Come and see the wedding presents! Diamonds, galore! Ho! for the Marlborough jewels! By which they set such store."
It was one of the finest burlesques, and nobody who was there will ever forget the jolity and merriment over the occasion, even if it was thought up, rehearsed and performed within three hours.
Athletics are part of the college fun, for Vassar is very athletic. Tennis is general. Each class has its basket ball team, which it encourages with shouting and other man-
festations of enthusiasm in the match games, so that the field at one of the games is a beautiful and animated sight.
The girls coast in winter and in the "catacombs" of Main Hall are enough sleds to delight an army of small boys. When the snow has a good, hard crust you can hear shouts and laughter from 'Sunset Hill' where the girls are coasting.
It is hardly in place to say anything about the type of girl that comes from Vassar. There really is no such things. These are as many types as there are Vassar girls. There are shrinking, timid, modest, dainty, Vassar girls; there are mannish, forward, self confident, assertive Vassar girls. Some are pretty, and some are ugly and awkward, but they usually love Vassar. It is quite remarkable the number of girls who tell you that their mothers or aunts were here before them, and the fact that a mother or aunt will send a girl where she has been, is pretty strong proof of her loyalty to her college.

PUNCTUATION POINTS
A young lady who knew little of football terms was invited to Lawrence to attend the Kansas-Iowa game. Upon being questioned as to the conveyance in which she expected to attend the game she replied, "I am going in the Pennsylvania coach, of course: Mrs. A. wrote me they had one."
Grant Allen thinds that it is a greater mark of ignorance to call a lobster a fish than to say "me and him went." What would he think of a young lady (a Sophmore, by the way) who did not know whether the Acropolis of Athens was a hill or a building?
Miss Young—I'm awfully sorry, indeed I am, but I have not a Friday or Saturday or Sunday night for three weeks.
Mr. Smith—O well, it's no difference,
I'm busy myself, perhaps (consulting his
note book) I can spare you fifteen minutes
about the middle of next week.
"Jane, stop a minute."
"Jane, stop a minute."
"I can't."
"Why?"

"But I have something to tell you."

In order to hear snatches of conversation on all subjects seek a secluded corner near the main stairway in Fraser hall. How varied are the thoughts of students as evinced by their conversation. One is worried almost to distraction about a quiz, another is completely absorbed in the last party or the party to come. The writer had the good fortune to record some of these fragments of talk to use in character sketches. The reader may judge the character for himself as revealed by the conversation.
The first persons to come within range of our hearing and vision were two girls who resembled each other so much that I decided at once they were sisters.
"Well, said one with a laugh, "how did you enjoy playing me last night?" Did you like my caller? You didn't say or do anything to make him think I had lost my mind, did you?"
"Really," the other girl replied, "You overwhelme我 with questions. I am afraid that in playing you so frequently I shall act like you so often that habit will become too strong for me to return to my severest self. But one thing I will tell you, and that is that you are an engaged girl."
A few exclamations of surprise, dismay,
even horror, from the first girl interrupted
the speaker, but after a few seconds she
continued:
"Let's sit upon the slairs; it's ten minutes until class time—and I will tell you about it. I wasn't a waze that things were at that interesting stage between you and Mr. A. when a mere word will precipitate a proposal. When he called I had the lights turned a little lower so he would not recognize the fact that I wasn't the dear girl he had called to see. Well, we planned about the party, talked religion, literature and the other subjects which are supposed to engross the thoughts of intellectual people. Among other things we were discussing the German custom of exchanging rings in case of betrothal instead of the girl's sweetheart doing all the giving and I accidentally spoke—"
"What are you girls plotting over? Take me into the secret too," interrupted a third girl who had come around the corner suddenly.
"O we weren't plotting anything. I was
just naming over the important points in my history lesson. It's about class time isn't it? Let's go upstairs."
For the next few minutes the halls were crowded with students passing to their various classes, hence all the conversations were so brief and fragmentary that they were not worth recording. After a time the halls became comparatively quiet again, and two boys came leisurely along pausing at the foot of the stairs. They seemed to be intensely interested in their discussion.
"We had planned to meet and overwhelm him with the surprise," said one.
"But how long has this joke been going on? I knew nothing of it," interrupted the other.
"O. last spring we conceived the idea of acting as conceit extractors. For my part I can't understand why it is that he thinks the girls take such a fancy to him, but he does nevertheless. We boys send our letters which he supposed were from this Nellie Wilbora to a friend of mine in Iowa who forwarded them to Will and forwarded us Will's replies. We boys have been meeting to write Nellie's letters and had have a good deal of sport over their composition. Now we think affairs have come to a climax and intend to show Will's epistolary productions to him. Can't you spare a little time to come to the rooms tonight? Will is to be there."
Then their conversation drifted off into channels of less interest to an outsider, We left our secluded work and walked slowly down the hill meditating on the ways and by-ways of college life.
She had come with her class from a neighboring town to "see the University." She was pretty, and affected dashing hats, and a still more dashing manner. She adored athletics and particularly football, and discussed it jovially with the men she met. She was escorted around the campus by a bevy of girls and boys, to whom she announced her intention of returning in the fall to enter shool. She had a very good time, and her announcement of it was heard all over the building.
The next fall she returned with trunks full of gay gowns, ready for the fnn of which she had had a sample.
She effusively greeted the first girl she saw whom she knew. "Why, how do you do?" said the girl hurriedly. "So you did come back. Have you registered yet!" and went on to join a circle around a girl not half so stunningly dressed as she. One of the boys who had taken her to the train said in response to her hearty greeting "and you decided to come back? I hope you'll have a good time. Oh, excuse me, there is some one I must see," and he was gone. So it went all morning she was left standing alone, wondering vaguely why. At length one of her football teams approached and began to talk to her. Instantly all her gayety returned and her laugh rang out so clear and loud, that the people in the hall turned and stared. The girls who had met her smiled, and she—she is still wondering.
She came up the hill to register full of the thought of how glad those girls would be to see her. She bad her ideas of fraternities too.
"No, I don't approve of girls wearing men's fraternity pins," said the Sophomore to a Freshman, whose dress was adorned with a Phi Psi pin. "It is not doing right toward the men of other fraternities who have probably paid you attention, for of course they feel hurt to have a girl whom they like wear a rival's pin, for the girl virtually announces that she likes one fraternity better than any other. Then too, a girl who wears a man's pin cannot expect to receive attention from any other fraternity. I feel convinced that a girl cannot do it without hurting herself.
A few days later the Sophomore appeared wearing a pin which was—well not her own. The Freshman who by the way still wore the pin, bailed her. in the hall with "why I thought you didn't approve of wearing men's fraternity pins?" "I don't" replied the Sophomore impressibly "but this is a TNE pin which is very different."
"Oh!" said the Freshman.
She was a freshman, small and pretty, very pretty, with big gray eyes that were made for firing, had she approved of it, but she didn't. The first day she was on the hill she noticed the tall, blase-looking fellow in the hall, and the next day she saw him again. That night she went to a dance where she had been invited, "to meet our girls, you know." He was there, and was almost the only man who was not introduced to her. She had a keen sense of humor, and thought it funny that she had not met him. So the next morning when she passed him on the stairs she really could not help smiling a trifle, though the big grey eyes were as serious as ever.
Within a month she had met every other member of his fraternity but him, and she saw him everywhere, passed him in the halls, bumped into him at crowded dances, and once at a dance he quite accidentally stepped Continued on sixth page.

A broken fan and some faded flowers.
And an echoing strain
A broken fan and some faded flowers
And an echoing refrain
Is all that is left of the happy hours
That I ever can come again.
All that is left? Oh, well! except—
The I ok in somebody's eyes
As he pressed my hand at the door and kept
Me a moment for our good byes.
Boy's way? Don't you thing he meant it in part?
I certainly can't escape;
Hoping I brought just a piece of his heart
Home under my pary cape.

TABLE DANCE
THE COLLEGE WIDOW.
In Lawrence the wind blows and the sun shines, but the heart of the "college widow" responds not to the unsympathetic elements.
No longer does she listen for the whistle of the "frat" man, for like the bird to the mountain, he has flown.
And now the Lawrence girl sits alone in her hammock. Her mind wonders to those halycon days when a coterie of college men worshiped at her feet.
Now, over, the limped waters of the Kaw, no longer comes the sound of gay guitars and manly voices. The self-satisfied Freshman, the callow Sophomore, the "sporty" Junior and the blase Senior no longer offer inducements to the Lawrence girl for promenading Massachusetts street. Even in Even in west Lawrence the queens of society sit in disconsolate solitude. Alone on the front porch they concoct horrible stratagems and methods of warfare for "next year's" campaign. And then they think of the long weeks between now and September and their long hearts beat wildly at the thought of the young dry goods clerk and the young man in the corner drug store. Here is a chance for a summer man. One college widow who has really spent seventeen years of "social mourning" has come to the conclusion that an infantile admirer twelve years her junior is worth having, and the other girls look on with envious eyes at this audacious effrontery. Already half the girls in town are not on speaking terms, and the most delightful stories charge the unheeding ail with strange significance.
The younger widows, in their hopefulness,
hurl their charms indiscriminately at the
few young men about town, while the more
circumspact pass the long tidious hours
writing ponderous epistles to their absent
lovers.
The young night clerk at the postoffice could tell many a romantic tale of the nightly visits of these bereaved maidens who come rushing in to mail their "billet doux" before the night train leaves. The girls in Lawrence treat this individual with the utmost respect and consideration for "he could tell a lot if he wanted to."
Sometimes, when life becomes too unutterably stupid, these unfortunate females form the wild scheme of simulating the personality of college "beaux" and in this delirious dream they take each other down to Wiedemann's and try to drown their troubles in ice cream soda, while the wheezy phonograph plays "She May Have Seen Better days" and "There'll Come a Time Some Day". Whittier may have been right when he
Whittier may have been right when he said:
"For all sad works of tongue or pen
The saddest are these, it might have been "
But in the "historic" city they quote it
differently.
"The sad test thought in prose or rhyme
is 'lawrence girl in summer time,'
There is a mystery afoot, and the question now is "What made him do it?" A member of the renowned Beta Theta Pi fraternity went to a party not long ago, and called for the young lady with whom he had cast his lot for two years. He asked her in melodramatic tones if she would accept a present from him. The young lady was somewhat surprised, but thinking she had struck a "bon chose," answered yes. With a majestic bow the Beta handed her a package and requested her to open it in the presence of her escort, on her return home. The young lady did so, and much was her surprise to find all the tender little tokens she had given the young man during their two years' courtship. There generally is a motive for such insane actions, but it is an open question whether the wily Beta has sprung a new method of raeching the feminine heart, or whether his simplicity was due to the fact that he really didn't know any better.
"Well," said the society edittress of the Daily Call, "I don't care if I can't write decently. I get better wages than that concited edittress on the Tribune," and she haughtily threw a bogus check down on the mahogany table of her grandma's dining room. "There's one thing certain, I'll get a better write up of that Smith reception or die in the attempt."
Never mind, dear, "said the old lady
soothingly, "we'll all help you and your the girls can pull you through, you know."
The editress chewed the end of her white tie reflectively.
"That's so," she said cheerfully, "and then there's lim."
The old lady's eyer gleamed fire. "U-
grateful girl; how often have I told you
to forget him? Didn't your mamma and
I tell you to set your cap for Mr. Jones.
His pa runs a whole line line and he's
dead in love with you."
"I don't care," said the society reporter petulantly. "I love Jim, and I won't. I won't, give him up."
"Very well, Miss," said the irate ancestor, "now you can't have your astracan collarette for the football game Saturday."
The lady reporter was moved to tears, all of which goes to prove either that aspiring journalists are heirs to the same ills that ordinary mortals are, such as grand-mothers, love affairs, etc., or that you can't have the man you love and aracan colaretes all at once. No; even reporters have to take things on the installment plan—you know.
Since the "bold bad man" from Shawnee county announced his intention of smoking cigarettes and only going with "game" girls this year the University young ladies keep tab on his calling acquaintances, and when one of "their set" receive a call from this western Ward McAllister she is tendered an elaborate ovation in the University corridors, the next morning.
An over educated product of the efete east who was being shown the points of interest in the historic city, stood within the shadow of the old windmill and soliloquized on the stories of the past which this time honored structure might tell.
"What fitting emblem, what significant souvenir is there that tells the story of this grand old edifice" she queried
"Well, there's the 'souvenir spoon' answered the irreverent Lawrence girl, casting a malicious glance at two couples or University students who had been vainly endeavoring for the last half hour to terminate their unexpected and embarrassing game of hide and seek.
"It is woman's sphere to wait," says a well-known author, but the young society man who endeavored to give the public a living illustration of this maximum at a recent social function, has come to the conclusion that it is best not to intermingle classical illustrations with the frivolities of the social world. The way it happened was tnis: The young man forgot that on Saturday night it is customary for dances to come to an end at 12 o'clock, and consequently, when he returned to the hall at one a m., after having interviewed a detachment of disabled soldiers, some of whom rumor has it, were dead we found his lady friend had gone home with another admirer. The young man, after looking blankly around the deserted ball room, returned to his home to meditate upon the merits of ethical prevaricating. Up to the present writing three ineffectual efforts have been made to propitiate the indignant damsel, who thinks that Lawrence men are "simply horrid."
A popular society man has been the recipient lately of several anonymous letters. These epistles were mailed at Topeka and give the startling information that within forty miles of Lawrence there is a young woman who is pinning away for love of this fascinating gentleman. The writer craves a meeting and assures the masculine entrant that an explanation will cause the course of love to flow with proverbal Iserian rapidity.
Since Mr. Clarence Slus, of Wichita, has been such a successful instructor on the bicycle, the University girls are trying to persuade him to hire a hall and give lessons at least once a week.
Rumor has it that the young man was tempted to follow the instructions in the letter, but was prevented by a band of indignant Lawrence girls who are now taking of forming a league for the protection of the rights of guileless native maidens.
It is reported that a sensation in the form of a new book will soon cause great excitement in University circles. The title of the book alone would warrant a ready sale for the publication and the author's social prominence will enable him to incorporate in his literary production, a collection of spicy anecdotes such as few University students have ever had the opportunity of experiencing The title of the book is "The Dizzy Whirl or How to Be Game," and the author is the well known society lion, Mr. H. Conn Jellyns.
It was the day a society belle from the west side, went down to the city for a few days shopping and the young lady carried an umbrella. When the train pulled in the west sider and her gentlemen friend strolled down to the end of the platform and retired behind the shelter of the kindly sun shade. Some minutes elapsed before the bell rang and the station master who was on the "right" side of the umbrella, pulled a picture of Olga Nethersole out of his pocket and after looking at it
depreciating for a few moments, threw it aside in cynical disgust.
There is a small boy in the southern part of the city who will do well if he avoids a certain enraged University student who has a score to settle with this irreverent lad. By way of explanation it would be well to state beforehand that neither the young lady in the case nor the frat man were to blame. It happened that while taking a moonlight stroll, their talk drifted to a recent magazine article which makes the announcement that a "bona fide" oscillation should last one minute and seven seconds. Now naturally, the curiosity of both was aroused and in the sequence of events an agreement was made that a test should take place. The moon was inconsiderately bright so the seekers after knowledge retired into the shadowy angle of a convenient church. The proposition Q. E. D. was never finished as a harsh voice broke in upon the seraphic silence and said, "Oh, l-o-o-k in that c-o-r-n-e-r," and by the time the young boy's bosom friends had gathered together, the young man and the Lawrence girl had flown to other realms.
Mrs. Paul Brooks, who has been instrumental in making arrangements for the well known Miss Jane Addams, of Hull House, Chicago, to deliver an address before the Lawrence public, is anxious that the University students should show an interest in this celebrated lecturer. Miss Addams lectures November 23, on "The Social Conscience," and it would be a commendable action if each fraternity in the University would take measures to attend the lecture en masse.
The Friday Evening Whist club, which was organized last year, held its first meeting of this season at the home of Miss Harriet Ayres November 5th. The club meets every other Friday evening. The members are Misses Ayres, Elizabeth Ayres, Bullene, Frederica Bullene, Ota Nicholson, Beatrice Maxwell, Charlotte Cutter, Gertrude Brounght. Messrs. Archie Hogg, Frank House, John Francis, John Nicholson, Voigts, Webster Wiider, John Collins, James McKnight.
The ladies Wednesday afternoon duplicate Whist club convened November 3d, at the home of the Misses Nicholson on Ohio street.

The limit of membership is twelve and the eight active members at present are: Mrs. Prof. Brownell, Mrs. Dr. Esterley, Misses Nicholson, Ota Nicholson, Tisdale, Beard, McMillan and Rohe.
The series of parties given by the Independent young gentlemen of the University have proved such successful social events that the young men are planning several more for the future.
True sentimentalism is not yet dead in the breast of the American youth as an amorous Phi Gam who had been triling too indiscriminately with Cupid's dart, evinced to the wondering public not long ago. The youth in question had quarreled with the lady of his love and instead of keeping a party engagement with her that evening, she willfully tried to drown his chagrin and sorrow in the "cup that cheers" and a joc drama. The emotional scenes made a great impression on the love sick swain and when in the last act a touching reconfiguration between two lovers was portrayed his feelings got the batter of him, and madly snatching his hat he rushed frantically over to the west side where his lady love was attending a party. After vainly tearing his hair and ineffectually seeking to interview his lost love, he fled back to the beguiling madness of the city and the last seen of him he was endeavoring to reproduce the melo dramatic love scene with a sideboard.
A recent scientific article makes the astonishing assertion that a couple it Germany performed 1175 osculations in one hour. At the end of that time the young man's lips were paralyzed but the maiden wasn't even phased. Is it possible that she could have passed some of her life in the aristocratic exclusiveness of west Lawrence?
Miss Katherine Brodhead, who is well known in University circles owing to her popularity during a visit here two years ago, arrived in Lawrence last week and will spend the with winter Miss Mary Monroe, in West Lawrence.
Miss Lucene Barker, of Kansas City, returned to her home Thursday, after a brief visit with Miss Mame Tisdale.
The plan of representing Lawrence by a K. U. tally ho at the Thanksgiving game is being discussed.
Miss Marian Innes spent several days in Kansas City, the first of the week.
The Phi Gams have quite a colony of K. U. men down in Kansas City. With Jacque Morgan as preceptor, there is no doubt but that Mitchell, Fletcher, Gear, and Kaul will soon get accustomed to city ways and losethest naive, trusting, simplicity of nature that made them so popular

A HOT TIME IN OLD NORTH.
THE VARSITY BOYS HAVE CALLERS
K. U. Girls go Through the Training Quarters and Write Their Impressions of the Same as Well as of the Inmates.
"Doctor—we have asked, some girls to come up this evening." ~
"No, no—can't have it."
---
"But they are the WERKLY Girls, reporting for the Woman's Edition."
"Well, that's all right."
And so they went through rain and mud and the invariable disagreeableness that always appears upon great occasion.
RUNNING THE GAUNTLET.
The reception at old North College waq graceful and impressive in the extreme, as one by one the boys were brought forward and introduced with solemnity to the chaperone and the reporter. No doubt they would far rather have faced a hundred Baker men—of the least one of whom the faculty stand in such appalling fear—than to have braved the glances from three pairs of feminine eyes, but that's another matter.
Mr. Hess from Mollie Lease's town was noticed to snatch his coat and hattu-culatively as though to break through the line, and run—no where in particular. The man from Wakarusa smiled painfully, and threw his arm around Games' neck. Mr. Mosse from Castletown leaned languidly against the wall, tapped one foot upon the floor, and remarked with his usual tact, "We're from the country—we're not afraid."
THE ICE WAS BROKEN.
The K. U. celebrities had recovered the serenity that they always display upon the foot-ball field, even in such critical circumstances as confronted them the other day, when St Marys pushed them down the field for seventy yards gain, and for which they received their daily constitutional—an unusually hot lecture from Dr Woodruff, "our famous coach."
ANTE-PRANDIAL
Time was not dragging just then for each boy and especially, Games had remembered the little speech he had thought of beforehand, and words were flying around thick and fast. Of course, the girls could do nothing but smile and listen as girls always do, you know.
Mr. Walker—by whom we mean "Sall" —was called upon to favor the audience with a soprano solo, but owing to a "football eye" which prevented him from giving the regular Cissy Fitzgerald wink, he failed to respond. It was subsequently learned however that Captain Kennedy was the best soldier of the crowd, as well as the bello, and that his rep-par-twared consist of "Goodnight, My Love," and "Answer Me."
"By the way," remarked Games, as a general move was made toward the long dining table, "since Manager McKinnie has been here, we can't any of us save a cent."
"Yes," remarked the reporter with the telling emphasis that girls assume sometime. "I have noticed that he has collected are markable large board bill," and for some reason or other Mr. Games changed the subject.
Owing to the presence of visitors, no doubt the boys had put on their company manners, or else always retained them, for no scrambling was noticed such as would make them merit the name of the Grab and Chaw club.
THE SIGNALLING BEGINS.
Mosse, as field captain immediately began signalling for the men to perform their duty.
"One swift—light completed—two," shouted Mosse, and Avery sent a slice of bread whirling across the table, with unerring aim. Cries of "One swift—Oat-croon—Two!" "Dark completed," "woofs" "Irish lemons" went up from all sides, and Blockberger, Teas, Poorman, Buzzi, and the rest were kept busy passing various edibles, from beefsteal and potatoes to butter, alias "salve," and iced tea, which posed under the very diguised and aesthetic name of "hniment."
Then came the rice-pudding, otherwise "mucilage," and the fruit, which was popularly called "goal-posts."
"Salt," the field captain explained for the information of anyone who might be interested in catching items for newspapers, is "xy," pepper, "xya," eggs are "misplaced confidence's, and spoons, as you might know, "young married couples,"—and roast beef, yes, roast beef is "shin-guards" when it is cut and sliced.
The mucilage was disposed of, the goal posts were knocked down, and the liniment all disappeared before the boys and their guests pushed back their chairs for the usual time-worn, but ever-enjoyable "feast of reason and flow of soul."
TONGUE AND TALK.
(See Corner feet ball, see) oak
Woodruff, hastily pulling off a cuff and placing it upon the other wrist, for in the excitement of preparation for company he had lost his usual composure and had slipped both cuffs over the same hand.
And then Games eye had to be examined and commented upon, and many were the expressions of sympathy that were going to be uttered, but Dr Woodruff cut them short with, "Oh, that's nothing; merely the skin covering the bone that projects above the eye is broken and the flesh brushed, you know. It doesn't hurt the boys never notice it in play. I have five or six scars upon each eyebrow where I have received 'foot-ball eyes.'"
While Voigt and Speak and a few others, not to mention the reporters, listened in fear and trembling, "Sal" entertained the company with numerous tales of past and present experiences and observations, a few of which were received, when they grew too personal, with stern silence—from one individual, at any rate.
Then came a tour of the apartments.
THE KITCHEN.
Upon the kitchen door was tacked a great placard bearing the words "No Admittance," but they had lost their charm. No doubt, the most interesting thing in the room was the great charcoal broiler upon which beef is prepared three times a day. No other meat but beef, and the best Kan-sas beef at that, is used at the training table; and it always appears either as roast or as beefsteak.
The long tables, the stove—far too small—the shelves, were all spick and span. In fact the kitchen and dining room were the neatest and, of course, the most attractive rooms in the whole training quarters.
THE STUDY ROOM.
"We study most of the time," remarked an athletic K. U. Er. The study is on the next floor," and with this invitation, the party ascended the stairs in the cold hall, Dr. Woodruff preceding with a little lamp in his hand very much like—if the figure may be allowed—liberty enlightening the world.
The study was found warm and lighted, and full of conscientious' hard-working students. The long reference table was strewn with books, an instructive game or two for recreation, and much describled paper. Martin's Human Body had surely kicked many a goal in the class room, and a Chemistry had come in for more than one touchdown.
"Our library," said Moss with a wave of the hand. "One book has fifty-two pages."
Sure enough, on one side were many volumes, variously illustrated and showing signs of hard usage.
THE "HOSPITAL."
"Across the way is "the hospital" said the man with the football eye and so across the hall they went.
The room was small and smelt of various liniments and lotions. Fortunately for K, U, there were no inmates, for Speaks the wounded sprinter, was able to hobble about.
THE DRESSING ROOM
On the lower floor, in a long narrow apartment full of shadows and ragged specters hung the Varsity football suits. Padded, stiff and dirty, they stood out like so many coats of mail. The intricacies of these uniforms were wonderful. They are full of queer contrivances, stitched inside and out, up and down and crosswise.
"I'm a seamaster" said the ever present Mosse. "Look here."
AN ACCOMPLISHMENT.
Oriental needlework with its showy brilliancy couldn't compare. Here was a repair' original in design, novel in purpose and showing at a distance of twenty feet just how it was done.
The training table is not a place for fun and amusement by any manner of means. To the boys who make up the two elevenes, the term "training table" means self denial, hard work, and strict attention to business
The carriage was announced. "I wish you girls would come every evening" remarked the big guard in an undertent, and undoubtedly the girls wished so too.
POSTSCRIPTS.
The hours for appearing at the quarters are punctually kept. Breakfast is served at 8, luncheon at 12;30, and dinner at 6. The bill of fare consists of the most substantial, and at the same time palatable food.
The muscular training proper begins in the afternoon when the boys go out on the field for practice games with the scrubs or for different forms of exercise with the ball.
Late hours are not permitted. About twelve of the boys sleep in the dormitories of the old north college, the others go to their rooms.
Fortunately, no serious injuries have been sustained by our football men this year. Every little cut or sprain is attended to by Dr. Woodruff, as carefully as the more serious ones. "By attending to the little things," he says, "they do not become big things."
It is often very hard for the boys to re
sist the temptation of a ham sandwich or of some delicious but indigestible bit of pastry.
For instance, Speak got hungry up at St. Marys, the other day, and thought, as he passed a restaurant, that a ham sandwich would taste remarkably well. So it would, but Speak didn't get to taste his sandwich after all, for Dr. Woodruff was heard coming along the street. Speak's sandwich went into Speak's pocket, and Speak himself dodged behind the counter. Nor does the story end here, for just as our sprinter was congratulating himself upon getting a chance to eat his bread and meat before going to bed, Dr. Woodruff entered and said, "Speak, you may come to my room tonight" Speak went, but his sandwich didn't. Captain Kennedy got the benefit of that.
All the members of the first eleven have been christened. The others do not receive names until they have been promoted to the regular team. Here is the lineup:
Mr. Kennedy, the man from Wakarusa,
Mr. Games, from Palmyra.
Mr. Voigts, the long end from Rosedale,
The red headed center from Keokuk,
Blockberger, from the “Pen.”
Shouting Speak, from St. Louis.
Foster, the long guard from Gardner.
Avery, from the short grass country.
Poorman, the man from the regular
PNY.
Mr. Mosse of Castletown.
Hess, from Mollie Lease's town.
Dr. Woodruff thinks that our team compares favorably with Pennsylvania's. Taking everything into consideration the Pennsylvania team outclasses K. U., but in several positions K. U. has the stronger men.
Mr. E, E. Voigs, who plays left end, will probably attend the University of Pennsylvania next year and will no doubt obtain a place upon the first eleven.

Just What We Like.
In the Iowa Vidette-Reporter, we notice the following editorial:
"KANSAS GENTLEMEN."
"In sharp contrast to the conduct of the team from the College of Physicians and Surgeons, and to the treatment our team received last year at Missouri stands the action of the players and students of Kansas university.
"Though we had defeated them last year, and though many of the Kansas students believed we would beat them again, our team was received with the greatest hospitality, and both before and after the game received kindnesses at the hands of students of Kansas.
"At the railway station our boys were met by a large denigration of Kansas students' with a "Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk, K. U., to be sure, but met in a spirit of genuine sportsmanship which knows no animosity or unfriendly rivalry on the field of sport."
"Much of the bitterness of defeat is softened by the knowledge that we were defeated by gentlemen in a gentlemanly manner, rather than by hoodlums after the fashion of plug-uplies."
Such words as these coming from men whom we have defeated—we say "we" because we helped to yell, at any rate, make the K. U. girl doubly proud of "our boys."

OUR K. U. SISTERS.
A RECORD TO BE JUSTLY PROUD OF.
Young Women Who Have Graduated from K.U. and Who Have Won Distinction and Honors in Their
Work.
It was a Frenchman who, long ago, puh himself on record as believing in the education of women "because it was just." Whether or no, this was the reason which influenced the founders of Kansas State University when they decided it should be open to women, we cannot say. They did so decide, however, and the large number of women who have taken advantage of that decision show that it is appreciated. Of this number, not all have been able to take the full four years course; but whether for one year or four they have all been helped and strengthened. Of the women who have been graduated from the Kansas State University the majority have entered the teaching field. A few have taken up scientific pursuits. We mention a few of the names which have been heard of after graduation:
Miss Mary Manley, class of 89, taught in the high school at Emporia and, afterwards, at Buffalo, Wyoming. There she married Mr. C. H. Parmalee and is now living in Wyoming.
Miss Anna McKinnon, class of 'So,
has twice taken the degree of Ph.
D. Once at Cornell, once at
Gottingen. Her specialty was mathematics.
At present she is teaching in Wells
college.
There is another Kansas university woman teaching at Wells. This is Miss Anne Reese Fugb, class of '91. Afters her graduation here she studied at Radciffe and spent two years at Paris. At Wellesley she held the chair of Romance languages and she now holds the chair of French at Wells.
Miss Gertrude Crotty, now Mrs. Davenport, is one of the scientifically inclined, her speciality being biology. After her graduation in 'So she went to Cambridge and enjoyed special privileges in the biological laboratories of Harvard. After her marriage to the assistant professor in biology she continued her work and has published several articles on natural history. At present she is lecturing on natural history in a private school in Boston.
Miss Laura Lockwood, 92, taught two years in the Lawrence high school and then went to Yale for graduate work there. Her proficiency in early English gained her a lucrative position among those who were bringing out a dictionary of Milton She continues her studies
Miss Edith Manley, '93, after a few years of success as a teacher in English, Latin, and German, went to Wyoming and married Mr. T. E. Chappel and is at present editing the Republican paper of Buffalo, Wyo.
Among the faculty of Kansas state university are two of her brightest women graduates, Mrs. Eiffel June Scott Franklin, and Miss Florence Parrot.
Mrs. Franklin was, before her marriage a successful teacher in the Leavenworth high school. At present she holds a position in the University as a teacher of Ger- man
Miss Berta Corbin. '93, ences the distinction of drawing a good salary and at the same time carrying on her work as a student. She teaches mornings in the New Haven high school and afternoons she does graduate work in Yale university.
Miss Florence Parrot, '05, spent one year teaching at Fittsburg, one year in the high school in Lawrence and is at present teaching French and German at Kansas university.
And there are others, lots of them, not all teachers, not all coming before the public in any way. Many are occupying positions as happy, contented wives and mothers, making pleasant homes for their families. To such as these the memory of their college days is ever a bright one. College friends are the dearest friends we ever make. College days are the happiest days. All honor to the memory of those who made it possible for women to have those friends and those happy memories.

IN THE GYMNASIUM.
WHAT THE GIRLS ARE DOING
This year throughout the whole student body there seems to be manifested an unusual interest in athletics. Never, since the girls of the University have had any privileges in the gymnasium, has there been so much enthusiasm in this line. A number of girls who have the required amount of work have come back again to continue their work.
The Freshman class is the largest that has ever come into the gymnasium, and it was found necessary to divide this class into two divisions which are to meet at different hours. The work of the Freshmen has so far been done entirely within doors, and has consisted of exercises with the chest weights, the free and Swedish gymnastics, and Charles Eberhards' wand exerises. These wand exercises are new and are those used in the Hemingway gymnasium at Harvard.
The novelty has worn off, and the Freshman class has now settled down to good steady work, but not without interruption, for life in a gymnasium is not without accidents and incidents. The apparatus in the room proves to be very inviting, and all kinds of new and unheard of feats are tried. The parallel bar seems to possess a peculiar attraction. Many of the girls are quite proficient already, and are very willing to help the others.
Not long ago an untidied Freshman was being initiated into the mysteries of the parallel bar. She found herself in such a position that she could go no farther and so asked for advice. One of her own companions whose mind was evidently crossing the Alps with Hannibal absent-minded said "let go." She did, and was much surprised to find that the law of gravitation holds good even in a gymnasium.
The Sophomore girls are just now wrestling with the principles of fencing. Quite a number of them can even now tell a parry carte from a parry dierce, and already many of the girls know from the winkle in their opponents eye just which unsee this adversary is going to make.
The stern expression on some of the girls' faces is enough to strike error to the heart of the bravest appointment. Indeed, this class armed with their foils and masks are a terror-inspiring light as several artless Freshies can attest, who wandering aimlessly through the basement of Snow hall and have come face to face with these maidens in armour. However, the girls are not as courageous as you might expect them to be, for upon seeing the enemy they immediately beat a retreat behind boxes and doors and all sorts of places. But not always is it possible to escape so easily. For instance, if a girl should find herself in a reversed position upon the horizontal bar, when the enemy appeared in the d.orway, it would take her some time to recover from her surprise and to make a graceful descent.
The University officials have at the request of Mrs. Clark given the space west of Snow hall to be used as an athletic field for the girls. They have made two tennis courts, a basket-ball field, and a running track. These are just being completed, and will be used as soon as finished. The work will be done out of doors as much as possible during the fall and spring months. A certain credit will be given for work in the gymnasium to those who regularly play tennis, basket-ball, or use the track. The field is not exclusively for the Freshmen and Sophomores, but for the use of all the young women of the University as well.
WOMEN'S CLUBS IN THE UNIVERSITY
The two largest women's organizations in the University and the only two which are open to all those who desire to join are the Women's League and the Young Women's Christian Association.
The Women's League is a voluntary association of the wives and daughters of the
faculty and of young women of the University. Its object is to welcome and aid incoming students and to promote a healthful social life in University connections. The president, vice president, secretary and treasurer constitute the executive committee which is at present composed of two ladies of the Faculty, one member of the Senior class and one graduate student. Two women of the Faculty and two representatives each from the Senior and Junior classes of the School of Arts, and one each from the Schools of Music, Pharmacy and Law constitute an advisory committee.
The Women's League provides a room for study and rest for the young women of the University in the library building. A committee of Faculty ladies is in readiness to attend to any cases of illness reported to it.
Last year the league held five social meetings to which all young women of the University were invited. At one of these a talk was given on "The Work of the College Graduate," by Mrs. Gertrude Blackwelder of Chicago. At another meeting extracts were read from letters which had been received from a dozen co-educational institutions and others schools where women are receiving a college training, members with the Women's League in Kansas University of a correspondence league. On two afternoons, questions were answered upon matters of etiquette and prosperity, by three faculty ladies, these questions having been placed in the box kept for this purpose in the girls' cloak room. On the afternoon of April 24, the league was entertained by Mrs. J.D. Bowersock at her beautiful home and a musical program was most successfully rendered. One informal reception has already been held this year, at the home of the chancellor, when the young women were fortunate enough to hear a talk upon "The Physical Life of a College Girl" by Dr. Frances Storr of Topeka.
The Young Women's Christian association has for its aim the highest development of young women. As every one knows, it is an international organization represented by two kinds of local branches—city and college associations. The college association, on account of its very position, leaves out one of its great departments—the educational and in colleges where physical training is taught, another also—the physical department.
Thus our own association meets a need which is strongly felt in an undenominational institution where no especial religious advantages are provided. It works for the development of true Christian character, and furnishes a training in religious work which cannot but be of inestimable value in after life. The social side of a girl's life in college also receives the attention of the association. Like the Women's league it aims to bring all young women students together in helpful and pleasant social relations. It will consider the social life of the University young women a success only when every girl feels that she has a part in it.
The regular meetings of this association are held in room No. 11 of Frazer hall. The program is varied, sometimes being chiefly musical with special numbers furnished by members of the music school. More often, the forty-five minutes are devoted to a prayer meeting, or an address from some outside speaker. Two Bible classes, one conducted by Miss Josephine March, the other by Professor Cowan, are interesting a large number of girls. The former is studying the life of Christ, following a course arranged by the university of Chicago, while the latter is making a thorough study of the book of Isaiah. Their classes are held on Fridays at 5 o'clock. Any young woman whether a member of the association or not is made welcome in them. A third class soon to be organized will be led by Mrs. Wilcox, and will discuss some of the problems connected with Bible study which are interesting so many people at the present state.
During the summer, and at the beginning of the year, special work is done for the new students. Assistance is given in securing boarding places, in finding employment, in arranging college work, in finding class rooms—in short, in relieving the hardest time of a college girls, life, the first few weeks, of much of its hardships and loneliness. Something is done in interesting the young women in their various churches; for the aims of the association are in harmony with those of the church and its members desire to work for the interests of the church.
Receptions are held at the opening of the year and occasional informal parties are given at the homes of members. These have proved to be some of the jolliest occasions known in university life.
Last spring several of the members of the association became interested in the religious work of Haskell institute and an association was started there under very favorable auspices. Almost every week, two or more of the University girls take the long walk to the Indian school, and find that they are amply repaid by the help which they are able to give and to receive in the little Thursday evening meetings.
Besides these two organizations of
young women in the University, and not to mention the three fraternities, a few smaller clubs have been formed by some of the girls for social and intellectual past-time. Some kindred souls who expect to revel in the delights of a Bohemian life, have formed an Art club, necessarily small but none the less enthusiastic, and are now fitting up a studio in which to carry on their sketching and illustrating.
DO YOU KNOW
That We Have in the University Some Crack Athletes of Whom You Are Obsessed With
Of course we are all hero-worshipers, and when no one better presents himself—which is rare indeed—we worship the athlete. But did you ever hear of a heroine-worshiper? As Mark Twain would say, "they are an extrac rise that never existed." Notwithstanding all that, and taking the athlete as the personification of all that the hero-worshiper desires, we have in the University some young women who are worthy of being placed upon the pedestal of fame, all on account of the remarkable and wonderful feats they have performed in the Gymnasium and elsewhere.
To be sure, the dear girls object to any publicity in the matter, but we can no longer allow them to hide their light under a bushel. We shall record only a few of the deeds of daring and feats of strength that have been performed by the brave lassies, but next Spring—if the faculty doesn't object again—perhaps their prowess may become known to the world.
Miss Bess Stone is the only girl in the University who can turn ten somersaults backwards and light on the top of her hat. More than this, Miss Stone is especially noted as a good Walker.
Miss Rea Woodman, who is not here this year, it will be remembered won laurals upon the bosom of the raging Kaw.
Miss Georgie Cubine confidentially admits that she is accomplished in all sorts of fancy horse-back riding. In fact, Miss Cubine contemplated joining a circus as Madamouelle Etoile the World Famous Equestrienne et cetera, but that was years and years ago.
Miss Josephine Shellabarger can throw a ball perfectly straight with her eyes shut.
Miss Lucile Knight has broken the record in pole-vaulting.
Miss Cora Peck is becoming famous as the little quarterback of the Dew Drop Inn eleven.
Miss May Landis is no doubt the champion boxer in the University. Her victory over a representative from Missouri last year, will no doubt be remembered by all the girls.
Miss Winslow Hutchinson is fast becoming a second Sandow.
Seriously now, Miss Lela Douthart is no doubt the most athletic girl in the University. Miss Douthart has always manifested an interest in physical training, and year after year has she returned to the gymnasium classes although the work was not required of her. She is quite proficient in fencing and has also become so familiar with the other branches of the work that she often takes charge of Mrs. Clark's classes.
Of Interest to K. U.
In the October number of "Western Homes," a magazine published at Topeka, several interesting articles are found, which refer directly or indirectly to K. U.
As illustrations of "The Western College Girl" an entertaining paper by Miss Gertrude Coburn, two group pictures of K. U. girls have been insered. The Pi Phis are the young ladies thus favored.
Oscar Eugene Olin, a brother of our professor, has written of Will White—Boy and Man." This particular article is of greater interest to Kansas university students since hearing Mr. White's address last September. More than that, we are always glad to read anything about Will White "because he used to attend K. U."
The Misses Grace and Tacy Stokes, who are this year attending the University, have a short poem entitled "My Ghosts of the Twilight."

PUNCTUATION POINTS. Continued from third page.
on her foot, of course he made an elaborate apolygy. Her foot hurt her very badly the next morning when she got up to school, so badly in fact that she limped a trifle when she passed bim in the hall, and the big grey eyes were very appealing. Climbing stairs seemed to be good for her, however, for she didn't limp after she got up to class.
The situation was becoming very funny to her. She really could not help smiling when she saw him. But one day he actually dared to smile at her, she was very serious then, though of course she glanced at him just to see if he were looking at her, and of course she couldn't help it if her eyes were big and grey and expressive. Someway after that she saw him oftener than ever, but she couldn't help it any more than she could have having an unfortunate sense of humor, or grey eyes.
"You see I am on time," he said after she had greeted him.
One day she was walking down the hill with one of his fraternity men when he overtook them "Hello Bob," said her companion, "I was just telling Miss Mason about — Oh I beg your pardon, I supposed you had met, Miss Mason, Mr. Eaton." Not a quiver disturbed the seriousness of her face, and the big grey eyes looked unansweringly into his, "I beg my pardon, what was the name?" she said. She was all settled for a long evening's study when the doos bell rang, and a caller for her was announced.
"Yes?" she said with a puzzled smile. As he made no response she began to talk to him about the approaching football game.
"I hear the Phi Pi are going to have a coaching party," he said.
"I wouldn't call a coaching party," she replied, "we are just going out together in a carriage. Are the Phi Gams going together?"
So she talked on, nervously thinking of the quiz for which we must study.
"Why. I don't know. I haven't heard the boys speak about it," he answered.
Ten, half past, quarter of eleven, and the girl was almost frantic at the thought of the studying before her.
At half past nine he said, "I really must go," but her "must you?" was enough to make him stay.
At eleven he rose, saying, "I believe you wanted to see me?"
"Wanted to see you! Why no, I didn't,
—that is, I hadn't any reason for wanting
to see you—oh! you know what I mean."
"Didn't you want to invite me to the Phi
Phi coaching party, Saturday?"
"Coaching party! What do you mean? We're not going to take boys."
Didn't you write me a note asking me to come over here at 8 o'clock, that you wanted to see me about the party, that—well—that you were going to invite me?
"What are you talking about? I never thought of such a thing."
"Well, I got a note. It must be — I know," it's that man Davis. I thought that was funny writing—where's my hat? If Idon't get even with him!"
A little maiden who ornaments the third grade was recently moved to amplify certain moral precepts found in her copy book, and much to the consternation of her mother, evolved the following:

Once there was a boy who couldn't get his problems. He kept swearing because he couldn't get them. He would keep saying, "now this is the last time I am going to try, and if she don't come out right this time it can just go to the grass. But it came out right that time.
Hope on."
The moral of this is, always cuss it a little and it will come out right.
This Is All Right.
The Baker Orange pays us a compliment, and then refers to matters which are not true at all. However that may be, we are very glad that the Bakeries take such an interest in our welfare.
"Rock Chalk! Jayhawk!" rolled out on the midnight air when our sporting crowd returned from Lawrence Saturday night. They reported the score in the K. U.-Iowa football game, 56-0 in favor of K. U. Since Baker's trustees have denied our padded giants the privilege of meeting K. U. on the gridiron—and in the palmy days gone by, to meet them was to defeat them—we rejoice in her victories with outside teams as our own. She has an unbroken record of victories this fall, and is regaining for Kansas the record that Baker once sustained."

The Senior art class made some very fine sketches of the different parts of the campus and the country surrounding Mount Oread before the cold weather sent them indoors. Miss Belle Ross of this city, has been posing for the girls who are studying the painting of the head. Some of the students are working in the classical museum and others in Snow hall, where the Dyche collection forms a very interesting subject for the girls who use the brush and palette.
In the Fine Arts Department.
Among the exhibits of the Kansas City Paint club, are two of Prof. Clark's portraits of Mrs. Clark. As a former member of the club and director of the Kansas City art school for two years previous to coming here, Mr. Clark was invited to place some of his work with the collection. The exhibition will be open Thanksgiving week and is held in the public library. The art classes and others interested in the work propose to visit Kansas City in order to examine this exhibition and also to study the Nelson collection of copies and reproductions of the old masters.
Prof. Clark has recently sent to Mrs. Hall, a portrait, a scene of south Tennessee see street at dusk, a picture of the old windmill.

PROSPEC IVE GAMES.
TO END A BRILLIANT FOOTBALL
SEASON
SE ASON.
A letter has been received from the manager of the Wisconsin university team, stating that a game could be played with K. U. during the following week the Thanksgiving vacation, at Kansas City. However, Dr. Woodruff would prefer to have the game at Chicago, for, as he says, "the people of the north and the east would thereby recognize the fact that we have a football team here in the west, and there would be no doubt about its being a greater financial success than if the game were called at Kansas City. For instance, when the Carlisle Indians played in the Chicago pavilion last winter, they carried home with them 5000 or 6000 dollars. K. U. might do as well; but the fact that the Carlisle Indians were Indians, may have been a drawing card."
As yet, Dr. Woodruff has heard nothing from the Pennsylvania team, with whom a game is trying to be secured. However, he considers this a good sign, for if Pennsylvania were unable to meet us, a reply would have been received some time since the delay augurs a favorable answer and evidently shows that the Pennsylvania authorities are considering the matter. There is a rule at Pennsylvania that no games can be arranged for after Thanksgiving. All dates are filled up to that time. But Dr. Woodruff hopes that for once Pennsylvania will break this rule.
With regard to the score, he says that, judging from the relatively strong and weak points of the respective teams, the eastern fellows would probably not go more than twenty points ahead of us, and that "isn't bad." We have met worse defeats.
There has been but one team in the west that has ever been able to secure a game with one of the "Big Four." Michigan did so, two or three years ago—and now, Kansas.
Senior Class Meeting
The Seniors held a well attended class meeting Wednesday. The first matter discussed was a class party and a committee consisting of Mr McPherson, Mr. Wilder, Mr. Crissman. Miss Feister and Miss Crawford was elected to arrange for one. President McKinnie then announced the editorial board for the Senior Annual as follows:
Associates: A. P. Jackson, John McPherson, R. W. Neal, Eleanor Gephart, Herbert Wing
Editor-in-chief: Hilliard Johnson.
Art editor: Miss Ethel A. Hickey.
Associates: Lee Cheadle and Hoad
Then came the report of the committee on caps and gowns and the opposing members of the class squared themselves in their chairs and prepared for a big fight. These*belligerent parties were disappointed, however, for after some peaceful discussion, the motion was almost unanimously carried to buy the caps and gowns instead of renting them. The caps and gowns will be procured as soon as possible and will add dignity to the Seniors' appearance on state occasions all the rest of the year.

THE STATE IRRIGATION MEETING
AN INTERRESTING PROGRAMME.
K. U. WELL REPRESENTED AMONG THE SPEAKERS.
A DECISION OF THE COUNCIL.
Many Well Known Men Both in the State and Abroad Will Give Their Views and Opinions Upon Various-Question Referring to Irrigation.
The Fifth annual meeting of the Kansas State Irrigation association promises to be one of the most interesting sessions ever held. The program has been very carefully prepared by Prof. Haworth and contains such well known names as those of Hon. H.W. Campbell of Sioux City, Iowa, Gen. Clark E. Carr of Galesburg, Illinois, Hon. Case Broderick, Hon. Chester I. Long, Hon. E.C. Little, Hon. H.R. Hilton and Hon.J.E. Frost besides Governor Leedy, and one of our own professors.
The meeting will extend over two days, and there will be five programmes presented besides a short business meeting on the morning of Nov. 18. The programmes are about equally divided with regard to their relative value, and each man is guaranteed to be a good speaker.
Hon. H, W. Campbell of Sioux City, Iowa, is a man who has risen to sudden prominence among agriculturists. A few years, ago Mr. Campbell conceived an idea of so preparing the soil of the arid regions of the west that a rainfall could be procured sufficient for the needs of western farmers. More than this Mr. Campbell has invented a plow which the agriculturists are very enthusiastic over. Mr. Campbell is described as a man of interesting personality and as a very good speaker.
Gen. Clark E. Carr of Galesburg, Illinois, won his title during the civil war and was a great personal friend of Grant's. During Harrison's administration Gen. Carr was minister to Denmark, and during the last campaign he was a prominent candidate for United States senator against Mason, who spoke at the Douglas county county fair this fall. Gen. Carr is of course an elderly man, but none the less an interesting speaker.
Chancellor Snow's address promises to be one of the best he has ever been called upon to deliver, and the addresses of Professors Templin, Blackmar, and Murphy will be of interest to all students as well as to those in these professors' respective departments.
At the meeting held on Monday evening, the council decided to notify each instructor to dismiss any of his students who were interested in the whole meeting or any part of it. It is to be hoped that there will be a large attendance from the student body, as many of the questions discussed are of great importance to students as well us to agriculturists.
In connection with the meeting, there will be an agricultural show consisting of irrigated products from the west.
Professor Haworth has received two very pretty designs for badges to be given away, and one, bearing the colors of the crimson and the blue, will probably be adopted.
A  CHICKEN FANCIER IN THE
      FACULTY.
Prot Templin is the Farmer Member of the Faculty, but prot Haworth is an Authority Upon the Art of Poultry Raising
Prof. Haworth has become an authority upon the subject of chickens. He knows all about the different breeds, every pedigree for generations back, and all sorts of things. Besides attending to his duties on the hill, he finds time to read three or four poultry periodicals regularly and to put into practice that which he reads.
A Revision Proposed
A proposition to revise the requirements for entrance and for the freshman and sophomore years was made by the council. The principal feature of the revision is to be the introduction of biological sciences. This proposition will be considered by the faculty of the school of arts at their next meeting.

REGENTS HAVE ADOTPED IT
It can be easily seen that with such blans as Professor Marvin suggests for the walks and driveways alone, leaving future buildings entirely out of consideration, that the Kansas university campus would be remarkably improved. The beauty of it is that every inch of the ground is utilized to so best advantage both from practical and from artistic standpoints.
THE CIVIL ENGINEERING SOCIETY.
Continued from First Page.
Talk About Steamboats and Wind Pressure.
At the regular meeting of the Civil Engineering society this week, Mr. Reilly drew the attention of the society to several new inventions that have been made and which, if successful, would materially revolutionize steamboat locomotion.
Three new types were referred to, first, where the boat was hung on large pneumatic discs, thereby keeping the body of the boat above the surface of the water; second, where the boat was cylindrical in shape and was designed to roll bodily over the surface of the water, the interior of the boat being arranged so as to remain horizontal; the third was also a cylindrical boat which revolved on the surface of the water, but which had spiral paddles attached to the curved surface of the boat thus giving a screw motion to the boat. Each of the above has however proven a complete failure.
Mr. Reilly was followed by Mr. Macomb who gave a digest of Mr. Bauer's paper on wind pressures.
Several points of interest were presented; first that our knowledge of wind pressure was at the present time not only limited but exceedingly vague; second, that an ordinary Robinson anemometer such as we have on top of Fraser hall does not record the actual velocities of the wind but that its record only averages for short periods of time. Such an instrument then does not give the minimum and maximum velocity of the wind. But the principal feature of Mr. Baier's paper is his discussion of the effect of the wind on roofs and framed structures. It is customary in designing such structures to provide for a downward pressure of the wind, but according to Mr. Baier's theory and experiments there is also an upward force, due to the formation of a partial vacuum. So not only must the downward pressure of the wind on the one side of the roof be taken into account but also the upward pressure on the opposite side of the roof. The importance of this upward pressure becomes very apparent if the effects of the recent St. Louis tornado be studied. Mr. Baier says that roofs which were designed to take care of this upward force stood the storm, while other roofs, not so designed, were completely wrecked.
Another significant feature of Baier's experiments is that there is no downward pressure, but actually a lifting force. on a roof or any plane surfacewhich is inclined six degrees or less to the direction of the wind.
Everybody has noticed this same lifting force, when holding an umbrella vertically in the wind. This force being even strong enough at times to turn the umbrella inside out.
May not this buoyant force also suggest a good explanation of the ease with which large birds float through the air?
Honors for Mr. Shucc
During the last year; and after much original investigation. Mr. C. E. Shutt, of the clast of '98, has written a psychological paper, which has been read before the Academy of Science and is soon to be published. His subject was the "Perception of Disturbance by Hearing." This term Mr. Shutt is investigating the subject of the "Diversity of Character Due to Rural and City Life."

About a year ago the announcement was made in the papers that the old Kansas Emigration Society of Massachusetts had turned over all the property which they owned in and around Lawrence to the University. However, upon this property there was a $20,000 debt, and it has been the desire of the University officials to get Congress to remove this debt. About two or three weeks ago, Hon M. S. Peters of Kansas City Kan, came to Lawrence of his own free will to investigate the matter. He is doing all in his power for us, and we sincerely hope that he will succeed.

The German Club.
"Der Deutsche Verein" held its first regular meeting for this year last Thursday. The following officers were elected: President, C. E. Shuff; vice president, Graham; secretary, Mrs. Franklin; committee on program, Mr. Clark, Miss Henry, and Mr. Cheadle. The work of the Verein will differ slightly from last year. It has been planned to hold each alternate Thursday a special class for conversation which will be attended only by advanced students and those especially interested in German work. The number of this class will be quite limited and if necessary it will be divided into two sections. Prof. Carruth taking charge of one and Mrs. Franklin the other. On alternate Thursdays the Verein will be open to all who wish to attend and a general program will be rendered. The first open meeting will be held Nov. 18th and Dr. Summerfield will give a lecture.
Sigma Xi and Absent Mindedness.
On Tuesday evening the members of the Sigma Xi society met at the home of Prof. Newson in south Lawrence, to discuss the alleged mathematical discovery that Euclid is wrong in the axiom that only one line can be drawn parallel to another through a given point. If this be true, many geometrical problems will be changed.
The sequel of this serious discussion follows when it is learned that Prof. Newton became so engrossed in the subject that he allowed his guests to depart without ever mentioning the refreshments to be served in the dining room. The next morning, however, each member of the society was informed by note that the refreshments were still waiting.
A Valuable Acquisition.
The University library has recently had the good fortune to secure a complete set of the publications of the Shelley society, containing fac-simile reprints of the original editions of most of Shelley's poems. These books are very rare as they were published only by subscription and in a small edition of 500 copies. At present the only way of securing them is when some subscriber dies and his set is put on sale. Many libraries much larger than ours are unable to obtain copies of these books so that their possession by the University of Kansas library is something to be proud of.
The Medics Win a Game
A good suited delegation of K. U. students went to Kansas City Saturday to see the football game between the Medics and the Nebraska Wesleyans. The game had been advertised to be between the Medics and Nebraska university but the management of the latter team backed out at the last moment so the Wesleyan were substituted. The Methodists put up a strong game in the first half but soon weakened and the Medics won—easily by a score of 22 to 4. Both teams were strong in defensive but weak in offensive work. Heller did the star playing for the Medics.
The Junior class held a meeting Tuesday to make arrangements for a class party. It was decided to entertain the second Friday evening after the Thanksgiving recess and committees were appointed to attend to the necessary preparations.
The Juniors Meet.
F. L. Jewett was elected a member of the committee on the inter-collegiate debate. The Juniors also considered the presentation of a private theatrical performance to be given some time after the holidays, to which members of the Junior and Senior classes and the faculty are to be invited.
The Glee Club Thankful.
At a meeting of the Glee club held Tuesday evening, the propositions of the council with regard to the holiday trip were accepted. The club unanimously decided to tender a vote of thanks to the council and to those members of the faculty who were instrumental in their benafit, and also pledged themselves to always remain upon their good behavior. With this assurance, we can hope for one of the best Glee clubs that ever went out from the University of Kansas, and one that will advertise the University to best advantage.
The people of Lawrence will have an op portunity to hear General Gordon's great lecture on "The Last Days of the Confederacy." He will appear under the auspices of the University Lecture Bureau.

THE WEEKLY SCOOPS THE WORLD.
WOMAN'S EDITION FIRST TO PUBLISH
ACCOUNT OF THE NEREA-KA GAM
It Published the Correct Score Even Before the Lincoln Papers. More News of the Soubbble.
Not the least important of the evidences of true journalistic enterprise displayed by lady editors of last week's edition of the WEEKLY was the publication of a two-column account of the Kansas-Nebraska squabble which took place in Lincoln last Saturday.
The woman's edition of the WEEKLY printed the final score and a story of the whole game eight hours before any other paper in the world printed so much as the result.
Everybody in Lawrence was anxious to know all about the big game and every body knew where he could get his information. All the people knew that the quickest and most authentic source was the K U. WEEKLY.
The people swarmed on Massachusetts street in front of the WEEKLY's publishing ofices and bought the papers before the ink had fairly dried. They soon learned that the so-called game was not a game at all but a big squabble and that the score when time was called, was 6 to 5.
An evening city paper had published a short telegram from Lincoln a few hours before but it had gotten the score wrong. The next morning nearly every paper in the country, including the Lincoln Sunday papers published the score as 10 to 5, instead of 6 to 5 as it really was.
One Topeka paper and two Kansas City dailies put the score correctly, but the WEEKLY had scooped them all. On Monday nearly every paper in the country had to apologize to its readers and correct the error of its report of the score. The WEEKLY did not have to apologize, nor did it have any errors to correct.
785 Maas. st.
The WEEKLY received its account of the game from a staff correspondent who went to Lincoln and reported the events as they happened. The correspondent kept the telegraph operators busy sending his story over the wire.
When the last word had been received by the Lawrence operator, and the young ladies knew the result, they prepared the big two-column head and sent the last batch of copy to the composing room. In almost less time than it takes to tell it, the article was in type, the form was locked and the big press put to work.
A very few moments later the newsboys sold the paper on the streets. The papers went like hot tomales. And those girls, "dandies" said one reader; "Isn't the WEEKLY enterprising?" said another.
Everybody was sorry when it was known that Kansas had not been given a fair deal at Lincoln. But everybody went to bed singing the praises of the young lady journalists and the WEEKLY.
Everybody on the hill has been talking about the squabble all week and nearly everybody is tired of it. But here are just a few words more by one who saw the whole fight.
Nebraska started in to play a winning game. She made fierce attacks on the Kansas line and met with little resistance. Ninety yards down the field she forced the ball until she had crossed the goal line. Then Shedd, the full back, captain and chief kicker—in more ways than one—kicked goal, giving Nebraska 6 points.
FROM THE SCENE OF BATTLE
But Nebraska could not keep up this pace. Her men soon became winded and tired. Nebraska had the heavier team but Kansas showed the advantages of superior training. After Nebraska had made her first and only touchdown, Kansas got down to business and when time was called was playing by far the more active and aggressive game.
Latest News From the Field by Our War Correspondent.
It was a cloudy afternoon and darkness came early. Nebraska anticipated this. She saw too that Kansas had struck a winning gait. That is why she killed all the time possible. After every down in the second half she took her full three minutes to delay the game.
Of course, Nebraska didn't like this and she kicked. The score was 6 to 5 then in Nebraska's favor. She wanted to stay ahead so she kicked long and hard—until darkness so came and the game was called.
Nebraska did not give Kansas an opportunity to play ball. That is why people say it was not a fair deal. The Nebraska players cursed the Kansas players. The crowd hooted at the few Kansas rooters. The Nebraska players and the Nebraska crowd insulted the officials.
Kansas made a big concession when she allowed Cowill, the Nebraska slugger to remain in the game after the umpire had ruled him out for committing an offense. But it hardly paid to be gentlemanly to the Nebraska players. They were not able to appreciate it.
Had full time been played the result most probably would have been different. As it was, nobody won. Under the rule there was no game; for there were not two full halves of 15 minutes each.
The accusations made by the newspapers of dirty work on the part of Nebraska were in no wise exaggerated.
Soon after Nebraska scored Speak kicked a pretty goal from the thirty yard line.
DAVIES IN CHICAGO
A Statement of His Work There as a Fellow.
In the 'Program of the Biological Departments' of the University of Chicago we notice the name of Howell E. Davies as one of the fellows in zoology for '97 and '98.
Mr. Davies graduated from the University of Kansas last spring, and is remembered, not only for the careful and scientific spirit in which his work was done, but also for his genial nature and his general interest in all phases of university life.
To his friends the following statements regarding fellowships, taken from the "Program" will be of interest:
"The fellowships provided for the biological departments yield an annual income of $520 each. They are especially designed for graduate students who have already distinguished themselves in original work, and who have received the degree of Ph. D., or are prepared to enter for it. Appointments are made only on the basis of scientific work and proven capacity for investigation. Candidates are expected to have decided on some special line of work and to have, of to leave arranged for, the material necessary to its thorough investigation.
"Applications are to be addressed to the President of the University before March 1, and accompanied by a statement of previous study, degress, work done or proposed, with testimonials and copies of published works.
"Fellows are expected to take an active part in the work of the Biological club and the seminars and to prepare at least one lecture a year on some subject related to their special work. They may be called upon also for assistance in the work of their departments, but in no case will they be expected or permitted to devote more than one-sixth of their time to such service."
The pharmacy school has shown considerable activity the present year in many directions. The students have a good deal of work on hand all of the time, but they keep up the meetings of the Pharmaceutical society notwithstanding.
The Pharmaceutical Society.
At one of the meetings Mr. Herben Spencer presented a paper on the results of the work of former students in endeavoring to improve a class of preparations known in medicine as fluid extracts, substituting for them standard preparations representing so per cent of the strength of the drug. Mr.C.E.Mckinnie at the last meeting of the society read a paper on State Board examinations. Professor Sayre at the same meeting exhibited a lamp used for the purpose of generating the new disinfectant gas-formaldehyd. This lamp, which burns methylic alcohol, generates this valuable disinfectant so rapidly and so easily that it has been adopted by the United States hospital corps, as the most convenient method of disinfecting the wards of the hospitals where there is treated contagious disease.
At the next meeting of the society Mr. Rogers will read a paper on the growth and culture of vanilla beans.

A UNIVERSITY COMPOSER.
Mr. Curtis Osborne Composes the "Rock Chalk Twosten
Mr. Curtis Osborne, a member of the Freshman class, has written a twostep which will soon be published under the title "Rock Chalk!"
Mr. Osborne hos a remarkable talent as a musician, especially as a pianist and composer. He is now playing the piano for Buch's orchestra, and is giving perfect satisfaction.
At the barb party the orchestra played "Rock Chalk" as arranged by Mr. Osborne, and it was the unanimous decision that the best twostep of the evening was "Rock Chalk." At its conclusion the boys gave the college yell, and then Mr. Osborne received such a round of applause as should make any one feel proud. All piano players should get a copy of "Rock Chalk."
The Country Club Visits Mr. Robinson
You who did not walk with the Country
club on their last trip can never know
the full measure of your loss.
We have no such air in town as they have out on the hills, and for the past night Nature has been outdoing herself in the matter of oak leaves and sunshine.
Oak Ridge, the home of Mrs. Gov.Robinson, is about four miles north of the Kaw bridge, on one of the many beautiful roads about Lawrence. It stands upon the highest of seven little hills, any one of which you feel tempted to sit down upon for the rest of your mortal existence. Indeed, there was talk last Saturday of establishing University settlement upon these hills which seem to offer to any who will come out and possess them a most charming and prosperous life. One of the party with admiral foresight hunted up a very delightful spot for a cemetery.
As every one knows that the Country club draws its members quite largely from that superior race known to us as the Faculty and wife, and the happy undergraduate who goes upon these Saturday expeditions may mark many wonders. If he be bold enough to gaze, he may behold some professional body prone upon a slippery football, or watch the professional mind struggling with the complicated rules of mumble peg, and if he should be uncommon shrew, he might recognize in some bungling professional pocket the repository of stolen apples.
It is safe to say that never during its whole existence has the Waldorf served such luncheons as those to which the Country club sit down, and true it is, that genteel establishment does not bring the learning of a Ph. M. to the making of its coffee.
There are those who say that the walks with the C. C. are not worth what one pays for them, but these are not the people who go.
OURY'S LACK OF COURTESY.
TRIED TO BLUFF THE NEWSPAPER BOYS
Manager Curv Didn't Reckon With His Host and Got Left the Boys Report the Game from the Side lin's.
"We have decided not to let in any but local reporters. You will have to stay back of the line, I can't let you in."
In the above language Manager Oury addressed a group of Lawrence, Kansas City and Topeka newspaper reporters. Among them was the WEEKLY reporter.
The newspaper boys were not used to being talked to that way. They insisted that they would have to get on the sideline. Thousands of readers of the papers represented were waiting for news of the game and unless the reporters could get on the field correct reports would be impossible.
A wire fence separated the reporters from the field. It takes more than a wire fence to keep back a newspaper man. The WERNLY correspondent headed the rush and over the wire scrambled the reporters.
Manager Oury had plotted to disappoint the WEEKLY readers by denying their representatives an opportunity to see the game. But Manager Oury got left.
WORD FROM ENGEL
He writes of the Harvard-Traeger Game.
The following extract from one of Prof. Engel's letters to the Chancellor will interest his many Kansas friends:
I must not forget to tell you that I attended the great Harvard-Yale game last Saturday. Some of my friends there would think my year at Harvard would have been in vain had I failed to see the great game, and you may tell all such that I anticipated their verdict and went. It was by far the greatest sight I ever saw. I cant begin to describe the impressions that were made upon me by the multitudes of people and the spirit and excitement of the game. I took several soap-shots of the croun on their way to the game and also of Lowell's home which I will send you to-gether with the Boston account of the game which I thought you might like to read.
E F. ENGEL,
Graduates of the University Form an As sociation.
A LOCAL ALUMNI LEAGUE.
Last August a picnic was given by graduates of the University residing in and about Lawrence for the purpose of organizing a local alumni league. A committee upon organization was appointed. This committee consists of Prof. Templin, as chairman, Mrs. Frank Johnson, Mr. S. J. Hunter, Mrs. L. H. Perkins and Dr. Williston.
At a meeting of this committee last Monday a plan for the organization of the league was arranged.
The first general meeting of the league will be on the evening of December 20th, in Library hall, where a reception will be given and light refreshments served. All of the University, without regard to school, and all members of the Faculty, are members of the League.
Among the purposes of the League are mutual social advantages afforded its members, and the promotion of the general welfare of the University.
Civil Engineering Society.
At the meeting of the Civil Engineering Society Prof. Palmer gave a very interesting discussion of the catenary curve; also, a unique method for plotting this curve.
Those not acquainted with the catenary curve can get a good idea of its shape by suspending a string from two supports. The curve which the string assumes is the curve known as the catenary. This curve is not represented by a simple algebraic function, but by an exponential function, and is therefore difficult to plot.
Prof. Falmer showed how this exponential function can be decomposed into the sums of two logarithmic functions. Since a logarithmic equation can be plotted by plotting, first the two exponential curves, then by a summation of these two curves the catenary curve can be readily plotted.
Prof. Palmer has been doing considerable research in the plotting of curves, and the society will be pleased to hear from him again in the near future.

Fifty dollars is the amount cleared by the Woman's edition of the WEEKLY. It will go to buy sweaters for the football boys.
The courtesy shown the staff representatives of the WEEKLY by the editors of the Nebraskan is the only pleasant memory we have of our Lincoln trip.
This year's freshman class at Yale has fifty fewer students than last year's freshman class. Suen is not the condition at the University of Kansas.
The "Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk" air was a pleasant sound on the midnight air to the returning party from Lincoln as they entered Union depot, Lawrence.
Evanston, Illinois, where the Northwestern University is located, now has a curfew ordinance. Evanston is a queer town in many respects. For instance she has a football team that Iowa defeated.
When Governor Leedy was in Lawrence the other day he took occasion to watch a practice of the football team. "I guess it will be all right" said the executive arm he tegrahed Ed. Little to go ahead with the Thanksgiving day proclamation.
Everybody speaks in commendation of the Woman's edition of the WEEKLY and of the enterprise and talent of the young women editors. You ask, why don't we let them get it out every week? "To be sure, Barkus is willing but the young women modestly decline.
The challenge sent by the athletic association of Kansas to the athletic association of Nebraska is surely all that could be desired by the latter. The propositions are more than fair and are made in a spirit of good faith that should be reciprocated. Let past differences be forgotten. Kansas and Nebraska cannot afford to seer the friendly relations which have heretofore bound the two universities together.
That man Oury, the pugnacious manager of the Nebraska team, is responsible for all the trouble. He is the grousesest example of the arrogant, incompetent and conceited braggart that ever disgraced a western gridiron. All his acts were characterized by assertiveness and presumption and impressed with discourtesy. He excelled in all the little arts of the fanfaron. He is lacking in even the most remote element of common decency. Kansas and Nebraska agree in very few of the particulars of the late contest, but be it said to the credit of the latter university that her students unite with those of Kansas in despising the personality and
condemning the methods of that man
Oury.
Washburn is in a position to crow again. Her football champions have defeated a team of high school boys.
The disgraceful conduct and obscene language of the Nebraska players show what an influence a manager exerts
The Georgia legislature has passed a law prohibiting football. That state is also raising funds to erect a monument to one Jeff Davis, now deceased. Georgia is terribly behind the times.
The Glee club did an excessively courteous act when it extended a vote of thanks to the faculty for permitting the holiday concert tour. We are not sure but that the thanks should come from the other party.
Hal Conley of Missouri, who witnessed the game Saturday said: "Missouri and Kansas have played football for five years and have never had but one man ruled off for slugging. We will always be friends as we always have been." Right you are. Missouri and Kansas will make their record as clean in the future as in the past.
Private Secretary Archie Hogg is preparing a catalogue of former Kansas university students who have finished their courses at Harvard university. There was a time when it was a popular thing to do, to study a year or two here and then "finish" at an eastern school. With a school like this University in the state there is no reason why any Kansas boy or girl should go east. Like the little boy who didn't care whether he went to Heaven or in the other direction "Kansas is good enough for us."
The faculty has finally consented to allow the musical clubs to make their concert tour on condition that each member of the organizations shall pledge himself to deport correctly. Two monitors have also been appointed to watch over the musicians. This last provision is entirely unnecessary. As the WEEKLY remarked a couple of weeks ago, the glee and mandolin clubs are composed of gentlemen and we predict that they will do nothing to displease the faculty or reflect dishonor on the institution.
"Robinson's Wail."
"Coach Robinson's Wail" is the way the Kansas City Star very properly heads the explanation made by Coach Robinson of the Kansas-Nebraska football game. The whole article is a tissue of falsehoods and an attempt from one who should be a true sportman to stigmatize the officials by means of insinuations and thus to excuse the hoodlumism which prevailed at Lincoln.
A statement like this, for instance, is unworthy even of pugnacious Oury: "Kleinhans, too, got in his work for Kansas, and tried to rule off Nebraska's quarterback, realizing, no doubt that unless some of Nebraska's men were put out of the game that Kansas would not be in it. The ruling was so apparently' unjust that Nebraska refused to submit to it. The matter was compromised by allowing a foul tackle and this gave the ball to Kansas."
This is the weakest argument that could possibly be advanced by a Nebraska partisan. Cowgill was ruled out of the game for slugging. The offense was very evident, the spectators in the northeast part of the field, Nebraska and Kansas supporters, being almost unanimous in the opinion that Cowgill gave a vicious lunge at Rockberger and slugged him in the jaw. Several business men of Lincoln told the writer of this that they saw the sluggling and were surprised that Cowgill was continued at his position.
Solong as Oury "cussed" and the Nebraskans bluffed, Kennedy was firm. But when Coach Robinson pleaded that Cowgill was the only available man for quarter, and the game would go to Kansas by default were the decision adhered to. Kennedy yielded in the interest of what he thought was true sportsmanship. And right there the mistake was made. Nebraskans cannot appreciate Kansas courtesy. After Kansas had given them a man in the endeavor to have a good, straight trial of football strength. Nebraska played for time and prolonged the contest till darkness.
But this latter fact shows the long-suffering of Kansas and the spirit of fairness and courtesy which animated Captain Kennedy.
But the action of Captain Kennedy in allowing a Nebraska slugger to remain in the game even after a flagrant offense was committed is not without good results. It shows that Kansas even after the terrific and unexpected onslaught of the Nebraskans which earned the first touchdown was confident of the result, confident in their superb training and power of endurance, confident in their plucky captain, confident in
the superiority of their tried and true center over an untrained farmer, confident in their interference which was not knocked to pieces, confident in the tandem which did prove a good ground gainer, confident that full time and fair treatment would show a victory for Kansas gentlemen.
Kansas does not fear Nebraska. The jealousy of the latter is explainable only on the assumption that they are conscious of their own inferiority.
Y.M.C.A.
State Convention Held in Lawrence Laat
Washington
The sixteenth annual convention of the Y. M. C. A. men of the state was held here, beginning Thursday of last week and continuing over Sunday. It is said to have been one of the best ever held in the state.
The work in Kansas is carried on by eighteen college, ten city and two railroad associations. Representing these, 205 delegates came together to review the work of the past year, to receive instructions in methods, and to outline the work for the coming year.
business methods and energy characterize the work of the year just ended. State Secretary Baird and the executive committee under Bruno Hobbs, law, '89, have enforced a "pay as you go" system, and as a result the associations are stronger and more active, although great advance has not been made on new lines.
The capacity of the large M. E. church was taxed to accommodate the evening sessions. The opening address, "What Meaneth This?" by Dr. Quayle, a treat to the lovers of rich full-toned oratory. "The Greater Christ" proved the Rev. Alex. Patterson to be a master of the Scriptures. Mr. Gates for the railroad department, and Mr. Michener for the World Christian Student Federation, gave very interesting reports of certain phases of the work. But by far the most popular address was by Dr. George on "The Value of a Young Man." It would take the volubility and deep thought of a German, the enthusiasm and dramatic expressiveness of a Frenchman, and the keen wit and patriotism of an American, all combined in one man, to make another Dr. George. His bright saliilles and well rounded periods met with frequent applause.
Of the many conferences for workers, the one on Saturday morning presided over by Pres. Herrick of Washburn college was of most interest to students as it dealt entirely with their work. Papers were presented on the following subjects:
"Personal Work for Students by Students," by Prof. C, N Gould of Eureka; "Helps from Intercollege Visitation," by A. E. Moody, formerly president of the University association and "The Morning Watch," by C. C. Michener, international secretary, Each paper was well read.
Sunday was occupied by a devotional meeting in the morning, mass meeting in the afternoon and a farewell meeting after church service. The pulpits of the city were filled by delegates in the morning. The address by Mr.Minchener at the M.E. church was very successful in portraying the value of an association as an auxiliary to the church.
Baker university is entitled to credit for the largest delegation, having twenty-seven men present.
Snow Literary.
As usual a large audience assembled last night in Fraser hall to greet the efforts of the Snow Literary. It was one of the largest audiences the new society has had, and could safely be estimated at 150 people.
In the literary program Mr. Franklin Baker's declamation may be mentioned as especially fine, while Mr. George Foster's parliamentary quiz furnished much amusement, and judging from the answers, must likewise have contributed much useful information. The debate which followed immediately after recess was beyond doubt one of the best given. The question "Resolved that the income tax is a desirable part of a scheme of taxation," was affirmed by Messrs. Phillips and Stevens, and denied by Messrs. Moore and Billings. After a spirited discussion the judges awarded their decision to the negative.
FOOTBALL ENTHUSIASM!
The critic's report by Prof A. S. Olin opened with a favorable comparison between the Snow and some of the societies extant in the "good old times," Prof. Olin spoke highly of the value of society work in college education and its good effects which would remain after college days were past and gone. His words were an encouragement to the society, and were enthusiastically received.
Among the miscellaneous business, debaters were chosen to contest for honors with the Adelphic, they are Messrs McCall Messerly and Bumgartner, in the choosing of which, the society acted most wisely, and placed its honor in safe hands.

Early Kansas History.
The department of American History has received from Mrs. Adam Clarke an interesting map of "The Great We.t and the Kansas Gold Region," which has been placed in the Seminary room.
The map was issued in 1859 and recalls the gold fever and the rush to Pike's Peak in that year. It very strikingly illustrates the great changes that have taken place since that time. The territory of Kansas extended to the Rocky mountains and included what is now the state of Colorado. Only a very small portion of the territory along the eastern border was organized and settled. The western part of this map is cut off and marked "Jefferson or Colonna" which recalls an almost forgotten attempt to organize such a territory. Denver, named from the governor of Kansas, does not appear upon the map at all but in its place is Auraria, a name which disappeared entirely when the town was absorbed by its more flourishing rival. There were of course no railroads at that time. The wagon trail followed either the Northern route along the Platte or the Southern one along the Arkansas. A stage ran between Leavenworth and Pike's Peak, with the fare $100, and way tariff twenty-five cents a mile. Many other points are suggested by the map.
The Department of American History is very anxious to collect illustrative material of this kind and contributions will be thankfully received. Early maps and illustrations are especially acceptable. There are two old lithographs, one of the treason prisoners at Lecompton and the other of the battle of Hickory Point, which Prof. Holder would like to secure. If all
who are interested in early Kansas history will cooperate, an interesting collection of illustrative material can be made for the University.

MISSOURI-KANSAS DSBATE.
Meeting of Committees to Arrange
Preliminaries - Joint Debate.
The first meeting of the committee that has charge of the Nebraska debate and the proposed debate with Missouri was held last Monday morning.
The members of the committee are as follows: Dunlap, Hopkins, Brownell, Olin and Hodder from the Faculty; McCall, Jewett, Klise and Bingham from the School of Arts; Wood, Hood, Kirkland and Merrill from the Schools of Law. Engineering, Pharmacy and Fine Arts, and Cheadle, Messlerly, French and Stuart from the Literary and Law Societies.
An arrangement by which Prof. Olin is to act as chairman in charge of the Nebraska debate and Prof. Hodder in charge of the Nebraska debate was confirmed and Mr. McCall was elected secretary. It was decided to hold weekly meetings on Mondays at 12 o'clock until the preliminaries of the two debates should be settled. It will be necessary to send a committee to Kansas City Thanksgiving day to confer with the Missouri men respecting necessary arrangements for the debate with them. It is to hoped that arrangements can be made to hold the debate with Missouri here this year, as the Nebraska debate will be in Lincoln. This would give us one debate in Lawrence every year and obviate the necessity of having two debates here in one year, and none the succeeding year.
Another piece of publishing which is exceptionally good is from the press of Lawton & Burnap It is the magazine of Kansas university. "The K. U Idler," it is entitled. To this first number, Alfred Houghton Clark contributes the frontpiece, a portrait of Professor Dunlap, and also a pleasant essay on the value of the poster sad to art. The department of notes and comments, "An Idler's View," shows an intelligence and good taste not always to be found in college magazines, where youthful spirits are likely to be tempted into personalities—Kansas City Star.

AMUSEMENTS.
OPERA HOUSE FRIDAY NOVEMBER 26.
The incomparable Corinne heading one of the greatest operatic organizations on the day, comes to Lawrence for a limited engagement of one night presenting the great New York Casino success, "An American Beauty" which has elements of originality and interest altogether novel in comic opera. The comedy idea predominates throughout its light, entertaining story yet with a sufficient undercurrent romance to give it consistency,
"An American Beauty" has an essentially modern environment, its scener being laid in Newport and Monte Carlo and the plot has such whimsical complications that they permit all possible latitude in gay and effective costuming. Corinne is provided with the most congenial and happy role she has ever been called upon to fill. She enacts a rich and beautiful widow, eccentric in her disregard of society's conventionalities, who finally after heart-aches and disappointments marries the man of her love.
Much of the comedy is furnished by the three proprietors of the "Greatest Show On or Off the Earth," who endeavor to persuade the gay little widow to become the Ten Thousand Dollar Beauty of their circus. Corinne's entrance in the second act is made in gorgeous oriental costume, glittering with gold and silver ornaments, on the back of a gaily caprisoned elephant.
To say that the production is a gorgeous one conveys no idea of its splendor of scenic display and magnificent costuming, which were the talk of New York during the long run at the Casino. The company, too, comprises some of the brightest of comic opera stars, including as it does six sterling comedians almost as many dashing soubrettes and an incomparable ensemble, numerically numerous, vocally strong and radiantly beautiful in respect to its female members.
Seats on sale Wednesday morning, November 24th.

In the death of Ralph Gowell the University and Science have suffered a loss that can only be appreciated by those who were intimately acquainted with him. Since my connection with this University I have known of no student who promised better as a man than did Mr. Gowell. Country bred, as most of the noted American naturalists have been, he brought to his world heze the energy, enthusiasm and love, that would surely have given him, had he lived, a life of usefulness and fame. As a student he was calm, deliberate, conscientious and accurate. As an instructor he had awakened in his pupil the deepest respect for his ability, earnestness and knowledge. As a man, he has gained, not only the respect, but the affection and love of instructors, pupils and associates. With the rugged body and strong mind of a stalwart man he had the gentle heart of a girl. The evils of life had passed him by without leaving one contaminating touch. With a tender consideration for others, so characteristic of him that it was shown when he knew that he was dying, he made all about him feel the influence of his manly character in the most unconscious, unpretty way. Perhaps none knew him better and more intimately in the University than Professor Dyche and myself. He was a member of the geological expedition with me two years ago in Wyoming. In camp and field his attitude toward me was that of friend rather than of a pupil—free and unrestrained. In all the weeks that we were then so intimately associated and since, I never heard a word from him in complaint or reproach, nor one that might not have been uttered with propriety in the presence of his mother and sister. Regent Sames, who was a member of the same party, in a letter to me says: "I loved Mr. Gowell as I did no other young man in the University. I loved him for his great big stout young manhood. I loved him because he was a student. I loved him because he was faithful in his calling. I loved him because of his upright, true, Christian character. In all our associations I never heard him use a slang word or phrase, and I never saw anything about him that I could not commend to my own boys."
RALPH C. GOWELL.
He was in the highest sense a clean man, a manly man, an honest man, an unselfish man, whose like all in all I have never met with in two score years of my life. Sounassuming and modest was he that jealousy of him was impossible even in the narrow minded. Every rejoiced in his good prospects in life. Had he lived, he would have made a name in science greater than is possessed by any one now connected with the University. I watched the unfoldings of his mental powers with the deepest pleasure, proud to have a part in the moulding of a student who would have reflected back lustre upon his alma mater and his instructors.
These words of eulogy may be attributed to the feelings of a friend who sincerely mourns his loss, but they are no warmer than those said about him while he was vet alive.
Best of all in his character was the love and reverence he bore his mother. The mother of such a noble son must reflect back in herself his noble qualities, making far more deep her poignant anguish at his loss. To her our heartfelt sympathies are given.
His instructors, his associates, the Chancellor, the remeurs, mourn his loss as that of a beloved son or brother. He has made the world better for his elhort life. He has given an example that we may all worthily follow

KANSAS, 16 MISSOURI, O.
For the Fifth Time in Seven Years the Jayhawkers Are Victorious—The Game Was Never in Doubt.
MISSOURI TIGERS AGAIN MEET DEFEAT ON EXPOSITION GRIDIRON.
It was Kansas' game from the time tue whistle blew to begin until the time it sounded to let the people know it was all over. Kansas won by superior work at every point. She had a slight advantage in weight, and in training was far more superior to Missouri's men.
For the fifth time in seven years the Missouri Tigers have gone down to defeat before the Kansas Jayhawkers in the annual Thanksgiving day game in Kansas City. In a contrast which was free from objectional features of every character, Kansas once more has proven her supremacy over Missouri.
The Kansas man who, more than any other excited the praise of the spectators, was little fullback Fred Speak. Speak played the game of his life. He was one of the best ground gainers in the game and his tackling was brilliant. He made several attempts at field goal from place kicks.
Hess made a sensational forty yard run for a touchdown. Kennedy never played better and his quarterback kicks always netted big gains. Blockberger's work, especially defensive, was the best he has done this season. Games, Foster, Mosse, Voigts—yes, the whole team—played ratty good football and that explains the 16 to o score.
785 Maas. st.
Missouri's line was strong but behind the line she was weak. Woodson, the full back, was lamentably so. Every Kansas man held his own with his opponent and Kansas won the game because she played better football.
The game was a financial success, our share of the gate receipts being eleven hundred and forty dollars. The business success of the game is due wholly to the able management of Russell R. Whitman
THE GAME IN DETAIL
K. U. won the toss and took the ball, Missouri taking the south goal. Speak made the first play of the game by kicking off forty yards for Kansas. Kramer caught for Missouri and returned the ball ten yards by a pretty run. The opposing teams队led up, the thousands of spectators watching in breathless silence for the result of the first onslaught of the Tigers upon the Jayhawk line—the admirers of the black and old gold, to be doomed to disappointment; the wearer of the crimson and blue to burst into cheers, when twice the heavy Missouri tandem rushed against the Kansas线, quivered, broke to pieces and fell back for no gain. Again Missouri tried the line in the hope of making the required distance, but fell short by two yards and "Sal" took the ball for Kansas amid the deafening shouts of "Rock Chalk" from the blenchers and side lines.
"Guards right,"—Hess took the ball and made a yellow yards before a Tiger touched him. In the next few plays the Kansas tandem aided Hess to make three yards, Hess two again, Foster three, Speak two, Mosse one, Hess two again, Poorman two, and then Missouri got into the play and carried Hess back two yards. Kennedy placed the ball for a try for a field goad, but the ball, in defiance of a field enthusiasm and as if trying to raise the lowering spirits of the Tiger family, found more room outside the goal posts. Woodson got the ball for Missouri back of the goal line, making a touchback. Missouri punted thirty yards from the twenty yard line. Speak fumbled, but fell on the ball. Voights was given the ball for a run of seven yards around Missouri's left end. Games made two yards, Foster one, and Missouri got the ball on downs. Woodson made a gain of five yards on right tackle, Hill followed with one yard, but the third attempt on the Kansas line was for no gain. Woodson punted thirty yards, and Speak was tackled by Hill before he could advance the ball a step. Hess made two yards on right tackle, Speak four and Foster ten yards on left.
VOL. V. NO. 12.
tackle; another attempt by Hess and Kennedy punted thirty-five yards Woodson failed to return, Missouri was held for downs and Kansas took the ball. Speak, Hess and Poorman made ten yards and Games got the ball for fifteen yards gain on a quarterback kick. Missouri again braced and got the ball on downs, but was in turn held and forced, to rupt.
The punt was a beautiful one of thirty-five yards, but Speak, aided by Kennedy's splendid interference, carried the ball back twenty-five yards. Voigts made three yards by crawling through Missouri's right tackle. Speak made fifteen yards on the fall back fake. Voigts advanced the ball ten yards on right end, Kansas was held for downs, and Missouri met the same fate. Kansas got the ball and went to work on the Missouri line. Foster made two yards Poorman four, Voigts ten, Foster three, Poorman three and Mosse was shoved over by the tandem for the first touchdown of the game. Mosse tried and missed an easy goal and the score stood Kansas 4. Mississippi 0. Time, seventeen minutes.
Woodson kicked off for Missouri forty-five yards, but Speak returned twenty-five. Poorman made five yards; the fullback fake was tried, but Speak was tackled for no gain. Kennedy punted twenty-five yards. Missouri gave the ball to Kramer, who made a run of fifteen yards on the Kansas right end. Woodson punted twenty yards and Speak fell on the ball. Voigts made a pretty run around right end, and it began to look like a touchdown, when Woodson stopped him by a clever tackle, but not until twenty yards were cleared. Foster gained five yards on left end; the tandem made two and Poorman five. Voigts lost, and Games made five yards. Parker was hurt slightly and took his three minutes. Mosse hit the line for five yards gain, and the ball went to Missouri on downs. Two runs around the Kansas right end gained ten yards and Missouri was forced to punt. Foster broke through Parker blocked the punk and Voigts fell on the ball. Speak hit center for five yards, Voigts took five on right end, and Speak tried a field goal at forty balls but failed by a few feet.
Woodson punted thirty yards and Mosse returned the ball ten yards. Fcster was carried back for a loss by Hill and Kramer. Kennedy punted thirty yards, Woodson returned it five yards. Missouri tried the line but failed to gain. On the next play she fumbled and Kansas got the ball on the twenty-five yard line. Hess was given the ball and breaking through Killiam and Liggett, and dodging Woodson made a run of twenty-five yards for a touchdown. The Kansas rooters were wild with joy as Mosse kicked an easy goal and the score Kansas 10, Missouri o, appeared on the score board. This score was just in time for as the teams lined up for the kick off they were informed that time was up for the first half.
Woodson kicked off and the ball bounded over the goal line. Missouri was evidently asleep as Speak picked up the ball and walked into the field, and was just breaking away to make a touchdown when he was downed almost in the center of the field.
SECOND HALF.
Speak tried the Missouri line but failed and Kennedy punted forty-five yards. Woodson returned five yards and was tackled by Voigts. Fast failed to gain. Woodson punted fifteen yards and Speak returned five on the Tigers' line. Missouri took the ball on a fumble, but after trying the Kansas line for no gain, Woodson punted thirty yards. The ball went over Speak's head but was caught on the bound and Speak was tackled by Harris. Mosse was stopped by Howard for a loss of three yards. Hess was aided by the tandem in making three yards. Kennedy, by a punt of fifty yards at this point showed that he was able to keep up his brilliant work in punting. Woodson got the ball but was downed by Voigts for a loss. The Kansas defensive play again proved itself too much for Missouri and Woodson punted twenty yards. Speak was downed in his tracks by Harris.
At this point the Jayhawkers went to work in earnest and made gains at every point. Foster gained five yards on the line and and Voigts three on the right end. Kennedy kicked the ball twenty-five yards and Games fell on the ball. Poorman and Games advanced the ball five yards each on Missouri's right end. Kennedy again tried the quarterback kick, a sure winner against Missouri. Games again beat Woodson to the ball, which went over the goal line and Games made the third touch-down, Mosse kicked an easy goal and the score stood Kansas 16, Missouri 0.
Woodson kicked off twenty-five yards to Blockberger who returned five yards. On the next play Kennedy punted thirty yards, and Woodson fell on the ball. At this point Missouri began to play hard and fast, showing more vigor than at any other time during the game. Fast, Hill and Kramer made gains repeatedly through the Kansas line, and Corrigan gained four yards on left end. Liggett tried the quarter back kick and Kennedy fell on the ball. Kennedy made a quarterback kick of thirty yards in return. Woodson returned by a kick twenty five yards and Speak got the ball.
Again Kennedy placed his foot to the ball and drove it fifty yards over the Missouri's heads, and as Woodson picked up the ball, he was downed by Voigts Missouri gave the ball to Kramer who made four yards before he was stopped by Voigts. Liggett tried a criss-cross but was downed by Games for a loss. Kansas got the ball on the next play on Woodson's fumble, and Speak tried a field goal from the thirty yard line, but again failed.
From the twenty yard line Woodson punted twenty-five yards. Blockberger was given the ball and was downed by Kramer for a loss. In this scrimmage quarterback Liggitt was hurt but he recovered and stayed in the game. Again the quarterback kick was tried but Gentry fell on the ball. Kramer made seven yards on the left end and Fast hit the line for five yards. A criscross was tried but Foster downed Kramer for a loss of five yards. Woodson punted twenty yards and on Kennedy's fumble Farker got the ball On the fake tandem that Missouri next tried. Gentry made ten yards around Kan

MOSSE ELECTED CAPTAIN.
The Genial Right Guard Will Guide the Fortages of Kangas in 1898.
Fortunes of Kansas in 1808
After the Missouri game the 'varsity and the subs assembled in the parloors of the Coates House to elect a captain for '98.
Bert Kennedy was renominated but declined to be a candidate. "I have had my share of honor, boys," said our plucky quarterback, "and now I want some of you good men rewarded." Kennedy has made a clean record as captain,
Y
CAPTAIN A. ST. L. MOSSE.
and the football boys think there is nothing too good for him.
When Bert declined Mosee was nominated and unanimously elected.
Arthur St. L. Mosse has for two years played right guard on the Kansas eleven. This year he has made for himself a great reputation. He is one of the most popular men on the team, his witticisms being classic in the precincts of North College. Mosse has the confidence of the men and will do his best to make the team of '98 a winner.
ONE SAFETY DID IT.
KANSAS AND MEDICS$ PLAY A DES-
PERATE GAME AT KANSAS CITY.
Nether Team Crosses the Other's Line
But the Doctors Score a Safety.
Kansas Safety Is Not
Allowed.
Kansas met its first defeat of the season last Saturday at Kansas City before the University Medical college professional team. One little safety won the game for the doctors.
Since the game played early in the season when Kansas walked over the doctor s to the tune of a2 to 8, the Medics have been greatly strengthened. "Kid" Allen of the old Baker team of a few years ago, and who played with Northwestern last year, now fills the position of quarterback. Saturday's game, from the start until time was called, was one of the most hotly contested of the year. Every inch of ground was warmly fought for and neither team was able to cross its opponents' goal line.
The playing of the Kansas team was no up to the standard it set early in the season. The boys had the appearance of being stale. Their work lacked ginger and warmth and they did not put up the quick, snappy, aggressive game they are capable of playing.
The trick plays were not used to advantage. The Medics succeeded in shattering the Kansas interference and the tandem did not net big gains.
Kennedy's kick also made big gains for Kansas and he easily had "Kid" Allen bested. Simpson played his first game o the year, and at left end acquitted him self remarkably well.
Speak's attempts at field goal from place kicks were the features of the game. Twice he barely missed being successful, the lost time the ball falling only a few inches short of the cross bar between the goal posts.
The Medics made the first and only score of the game in the first half after about ten minutes of the play. The ball had been forced almost to the Kansas goal line when Kansas by a magnificent exhibition of defensive work held the Medics back and secured the ball on downs. Poorman took the ball but Heller, who played a magnifi game, broke through the line and forced him over for a safety. A punt would have scored the game.
After this it was nip and tuck. Both teams fought like tigers and the result was in doubt until time was called.
Near the close of the game Kansas also scored a safety. The point was a very close one and Referee Cornell did not allow the score.
Speak had made at attempt at goal from the forty-rod line. The ball went squarely between the posts but fell about a foot below the cross piece and into the arms of Sutton, who stood just inside the goal line. As he caught the leather he stepped back aver the line.
Kansas, of course, claimed the safety, but Sutton insisted that he was back of the line when he caught the ball. Referee Cornell was several yards away when the play was made, but he took Sutton's word, and decided that no safety had been made.
By the decision the score was 2 to 0 in
faqor of the physicians.
A DESERVED PROMOTION
Frank Shellabarger Leaves the Weekly to Accept a Position on the Capital.
Mr. Frank L. Shellabarger has resigne the associate editorship of the WEEKLY and has withdrawn from the University. The reason for this is a tempting offer which Mr. Shellabarger received last week from the Topeka Capital and which his good newspaper judgment would not let him refuse.
Mr. Shellabarger has been identified with the WEEKLY for two months and during that time has made his department very popular with the students. He has what is known in newspaper vernacular as "a nose for news," and a crisp style which has made his copy readable. But his work attracted attention elsewhere and the result is the WEEKLY's loss.
The Capital is fortunate in securing Mr. Shellabarger.

LAWRENCE, KANSAS, NOV 27, 1897.
We feel pretty well, thank you, Doctor
What is a pretty good game for indoor sport. ___
Nebraska was only blupping after all,
and so the episode closes.
The better support the Lecture Bureau receives, the better entertainments it can give.
Kansas claims the football championship of the southwest. If any team disputes our claim let it play ball.
Every student should buy a lecture course ticket. Many times the value of the money invested is assured to the purchaser.
Kansas closes the football season with honor, being defeated only once and scoring two hundred and fifty-three points to her opponents' sixteen.
Manager Oury has sunk the Nebraska team so low in the public estimation that even the papers of its own state refuse to champion its cause.
The Lawrence Journal is sore because the WEEKLY scooped it so badly in publishing an account of the Nebraska game the evening it occurred. The Journal was defeated fairly in its own field and cannot win respect by crying over the result. It does not pay to play the baby act.
"God made the summer for the hobo and the bummer-chump;
Do not put aside your enthusiasm now. There are still the debates and the oratorical contests to ask your support. The student who draws into his shell at the close of the football season is endangered of premature suffocation. There is no more truth than in the ditty:
G made the winter for the spriiter and the pug."
Missouri's defeat was no disgrace. The eleven, plucky, tiger-skinned boys, who defended so valiantly the honor of old gold and black are a credit to any institution. The game was by no means so one sided as the score might indicate. Missouri never surrendered. Every inch of territory was hotly contested. For a team to play so sturdyly in the face of inevitable defeat must win the praise of every college lover of amateur sport.
The Washburn Review asks innocently enough why more college papers do not contain an exchange department. It seems to us that the reason why the best papers have discarded this department is found in the modern prevalence of the humantarian instinct. The effort required to comprehend the humor of the average jokes of the average exchange department of the average college paper is too great a strain on the nervous system of the average college student.
The Football Season
When a single paper gives the results of over sixty games of football in one issue and all these played in the vicinity of the office of publication, with the exception of two or three of the more important college contests, one need not go further for the evidence of the fascination of the game for the youth of the country. Its wide popularity
taken into account in consideration with the fact that the vast majority of the players were not in training, the sum total of injuries is remarkably small and easily explained. If the sad results in a very few contests are given wide publicity, it is but fair to emphasize also the thousands of players who have passed the season without injury.
The criticisms of the game this year have echoed those of last season. They are mainly directed against the alleged brutality of football and the supposed neglect of studies necessary for the practice of the team. The latter charge is gratuitous. No more time is occupied than the students should give to outdoor exercise, and some of the principal colleges place the team players under stricter requirements as to class room duties than are expected of their fellow students. As to the brutality of the game, so far as it is not a popular fiction, it is diminishing with training. In confining the great games to college grounds and in giving the umbrella power to declare the ball down, in prohibiting the wedge and other mass plays behind the line, and in severe penalties for infractions of the rules, much has been done to eliminate objectionable features. Whatever else is needed to preserve the game and hold its present popularity may be safely left to the Intercollegiate Advisory Committee.
It may also be prophesied that the changes suggested will not be those advanced by the judges, who, in their criticisms, only reveal their utter ignorance of the game, or by those who forget there is no outdoor sport without its element of danger, or by those who, with their advancing years have lost their sympathy with youthful spirits, or by those who believe that students should never gather in numbers except to compare notes on Homer or to discuss the last lecture on experimental psychology. There is no more hopeful sign for the future of American youth than the increasing interest in athletics. This intesest should be fostered and encouraged, and any criticism of outdoor sports should be reasonable and intelligent.—New York Commercial Advertiser.
Was the Contract Broken?
The Kansas University Weekly this week devotes half a column to telling how it "scoped the world" by printing last Saturday night the result of the Kansas-Nebraska football game, when that paper made no effort to print it till its Monday evening edition, the first one after the last in the Journal issue. One of the way the game was going in its regular edition of Saturdays —Lawrence Journal.
The Lawrence Journal company is under contract to get the WEEKLY out on Saturday. We claim that the WEEKLY was published Saturday the 13th of November and that newsboys sit on the street that evening with a full account in it of the Nebraska game. Will the Journal acknowledge the scoop or does it insist upon forfeiting the $40 paid for that issue?
SHARPS AND FLATS.
Were you thankful? If not, why not?
A K. U. girl recently remarked that she would like to die, if it were only possible for her to remain over a day or two to see the funeral services.
A certain well known football player has caused a hot rivalry to spring up between two university girls; and the fun of it is the dear fellow is blissfully unconscious of it all.
When two girls become very, very friendly all of a sudden, and take particular pains to appear in the halls together, you may know that something is up. They are both probably angling for the same fish.
Some people are not so smart as they appear to be; notwithstanding that, it takes a smart person to appear smart.
"My dear fellow, "he at last managed to say: "If smoking affects you in that way, I advise you to stop, for your philosophy is all out of tune. How can honest people be honest, when they underestimate themselves?"
A popular girl was recently described as "the sort of a woman to reach out her hand across the little gulf of social ostracism, and draw a man back to high ground, looking him fearlessly in the eyes with a gaze that says his past is a part of eternity, and that she believes implicitly in his future." That accounts for her popularity.
"All honest people underestimate themselves," observed A., as he blew three rings of tobacco smoke into the air.
B. removed his feet from their elevated position, and gazed at A.In an awe-struck manner.
He had become blase during his college course, and someway or other he didn't see much use in observing Thanksgiving day and other such non-sensical things anyway
LOOK ON THIS SKETCH.
True, he lived only fifty or sixty miles from the college town, and the "ole folks" and the little sister would have been so happy to have had him with them on that great day—besides, there was some one else too, very simple and very coy, but very, very sweet; that is, during the summer vacation—but then, it was so much more interesting to attend the great football game, and to accompany "the girls" on their journey thither. So he decided to go to the game that day and enjoy himself. The "folks" could get along the best way they could without him. They wouldn't miss him much anyway.
But the old father and the old mother sat by the window all day long, gazing at the loaden sky, and the little sister crept away to her room to hide the tears of disappointment that would gather to her eyes, and the other maiden—oh, she sighed a little, and went for walks with the other fellow.
AND THEN ON THIS.
Then there was the other fellow. He was lighthearted and jolly, but someway he had that atmosphere about him which marked him as delightfully old-fashioned, and as very, very unworldly—and you know that no man is of particular interest, until he has come into contact with the world and his wife and his sons and his daughters. However, two or three of the very tip-top girls at the U. had been kind enough to say that they wished "someone" would "take him up," for they would really like to educate and polish him.
Well, he went home to spend the Thanksgiving vacation, although he had longed to attend the football game, for football was his chief delight. But the the father and the mother were so glad to see him, and the little sister had grown so pretty and so charming, and the some one else of his heart was so tender and so sweet, and not at all like those dashing girls at the U., and—well, taking it all in all, it was the finest Thanksgiving he had ever seen, and he forgot all about the game until the scora was telegraphed to him, and then he, and the little sister, and the someone else too, made the air fairly ring with the merry college vell.
Yes, it was the very finest Thanksgiving, but he was old fashioned, you know. And the other fellow—that is, the first fellow—well, he was blase, but he said that he didn't see why Thanksgivings couldn't be as jolly as they used to be.
CREDIT TO M'KINNIE.
The Lawrence World Pays Him a High Compliment.
The football season closes with honor to Kansas. The team has been defeated but once and that by the Medic professional team by only two points. The game with Nebraska was "no game" and Nebraska refused the Kansas challenge.
Undoubtedly Kansas is champion of the southwest. There is no other claimant that will support its claims with a game. Kansas has scored a total of 253 points to its opponents' 16.
The season has been unusually successful financially. Beginning with a deficit of $1,100, the Athletic association is now practically out of debt. The receipts have not been so large as in past years, but the expenditures have been less, due to careful management.
Manager McKinnie has worked faithfully and has done his part well. By his business way he has gained the confidence of business men. The sound business standing of the association is due to the uniting efforts of Manager McKinnie.—Lawrence World
AMUSEMENTS.
OPERA HOUSE MONDAY NO. 29.
Notwithstanding the strong counter attractions, the theatre last night was packed to the doors, the attraction being the performance of Beach & Bowers refined minstrels. There was undoubtedly the best pleased audience that ever assembled at this place of amusement. The company made a decided hit. The program was new and original, old-time worn business being abandoned — Omaha Daily Bee.

NOTES FROM THE SCHOOL OF FINE ARTS.
Prof. Preyer was ill last week and did not teach Thursday and Friday.
Miss Wilson was in Kansas City Monday and Saturday of last week.
Miss McCormick of Cherryville has registered as a special in voice and piano this quarter. Miss Henicke is also a new member of the School of Fine Arts.
The Euterpe club was treated royally at Miss Wiedemann's last Saturday afternoon. The programme rendered was as follows: Violin solo by Miss McCrory; biography of Mozart written by Miss Winnek; piano duet by Miss Greissinger and Wiedemann; and piano solos by Miss McShea and Mr. Merrill. After the program dainty refreshments were offered, consisting of cakes, lemonade and cream which was served in the shape of lamps decorated with colored crepe paper shades. The club decided to accept an invitation to have an open meeting with Mrs. Penny after Thanksgiving and having appointed a committee on entertainment for the occasion, the meeting adjourned.
The private pupils of Miss Wilson have organized a St. Cecelia society. They meet once a week to study musical problems, read papers and listen to piano solos.
Those music students who remained in town during vacation are grateful to Mrs. Penny for the entertainment provided by her for Thanksgiving day and evening. Mrs. Penny's popularity among the music girls particularly is due to her many kindnesses to them on such occasions.
Miss Lichtenwalter writes that she is taking advantage of the excellent concerts which can be heard so often in Germany. She speaks particularly of the organ concerts which she attends regularly. She says Herr Barth is "an old crank;" but American girls who study abroad are familiar with that type of a teacher.
The Fine Arts students have completed the lectures on sound. Wednesday morning Prof. Blake illustrated the different effects of instruments in the phonograph, which he informed the class, was a special Thanksgiving illustration.
In the art department, an object of interest as well as an example of the work done by the school, is the clay modelling in which Miss Selby is engaged.
Miss Laure Babize is teaching French at 1302 Tennessee street. She gives instruction to both classes and individuals.
Miss Frederickson is teaching piano and playing church organ in Chicago this winter.

HULL HOUSE EXPERIMENT.
about. Toybeen offers a fine of course University extension lectures which the populace has learned to look forward to as a treat.
Oxford House was established as a protest against the liberal religious views of Toynbee. It has established clubs and done much to ameliorate the conditions of the poor.
Continued from Fourth Page.
Mr. Alden of Mansfield house on the Thames thinks the public should help more. He has secured playgrounds, libraries and parks, but only by great efforts.
There are fifteen settlements in New York, seven in Philadelphia, and thirteen n Chicago. Hull house was established in Chicago in 1889. It is in the heart of the Nineteenth ward, a district populated by Italian, Polish and Russian Jews, Bohemians, French, Armenians, Syrians. This district is notoriously corrupt politically.
The alderman of the Nineteenth ward has held his office four terms and is the most corrupt man on the Chicago council. His money adds to the joy of weddings and festivals and takes from the burdens of funerals and calamities. Thus the voters reason that if he robs the rich and gives to the poor, he he is a philanthropist and deserves re-election.
These Robin Hood ethics says Miss Addams is one of the most difficult problems that Hull house has to contend with. The Hull house candidate received 2000 votes at the last election a considerable increase over former elections.
Instruction has to be spread out thin and instilled in a social way. Plays are given on holidays. While these are quite crude they are doing good. Miss Addams said they held about the same relation to modern plays that the miracle plays did to the plays of Shakespeare's time. Certainly there is need for a more perfect social life.
There are thirty clubs now meeting at Hull house. The Woman's club has 150 members. This club divided the ward into districts and appointed the members for overseers. They patrolled the alleys and reported on their work. These reports were sent to the city cleaning department and as a result the nineteenth ward is the second cleanest in the city. There is a cooperative club of working girls that has been in operation for six years.
One of the greatest problems that confronts the Hull house is the question of relief. Poverty is the rule rather than the exception and yet these very poor help each other. The man thrown out of employment or sick receives aid from the "baker across the way," or "the family upstairs." These in their distresses receive aid from others. In the sweat shop districts the hours are long the season short. So enormous are the evils of this business that Hull House is trying to regulate them by law. A child labor law has been passed that equals that of Massachusetts.
In the eight years since the establishment of Hull House a vast deal of good has been done the working people of Chicago. But in comparison with the work that can be done in this direction little more than an impression has been made.

FOOTBALL OF THE FUTURE
It Will Be a Gentlemanly Game of Quiet Excitement.
Now that the football season is ended and the statisticians are at work compiling names of dead and injured the usual talk is on for a modification of the rules. The sporting editor of the Chicago News has been investigating to the end that a new game might result devoid of the abuses of the old. His suggestions are in line with those offered by Dr. L. E. Sayre at a faculty meeting last year.
"In the new game," says the News, "the players will wear evening suits, with silk hats and big gloves as side attractions. Instead of the old-time kick-off the ball will be rolled to a point previously agreed upon by both sides. There will be no more tackling, but one of the gentlemen will approach the gentleman who is walking with the ball, and in a courteous tone request the pleasure of relieving him of it. If the holder objects the matter will be referred to a board of arbitration, which in giving a decision will be governed by the length of time the holder has had the ball, and by his general appearance.
The rush line will be done away with. The gentlemen will form in line and walk gracefully yet earnestly to the other side, stopping when within in a few feet and, after raising their hats and bowing, ask if there is any objection to their continuing the promenade to the goal. If the opposing team be gentlemen they cannot refuse the request.
If perchance, any gentleman engaged in the game should stumble and fall, the other side shall assist him to his feet, express the hope that he has suffered no injury, re-arrange his hat and brush his clothes. The one thus assisted shall informally thank his helpers and notify them that a written expression of gratitude will be mailed to them in due time.
In no instance shall there be any shoving, crowding or other conduct unbecoming a gentleman. If any player brushes harshly against another he shall at once make apologies. Warm tea will be passed at intervals during the contest and an intermission of ten minutes shall be given up to social chat. After the game is over charlotte cream or lady-fingers and whipped creme will be served. The exercises will close by the gentlemen of both sides reciting "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" or "Mary Had a Little Lamb."

CHAPEL NOTES.
Monday morning the students were addressed by A. E. Moody, formerly a University student one of the speakers of the state Y, M. C. A. convention which closed Sunday evening; and the chapel service was attended by a considerable number of delegates who were still in town. His subject was the beauty of Christian manhood, strong, cheery, true; the gift of God all equally, the humbleest or the greatest among men claiming a like share. Christian manhood looks upon life with cheer and courage, knowing that right must win, uncompromising toward evil but with love and charity toward all good.
The remainder of the week Rev. W. Banker was in charge of the services, and his topics dealt with the foundation of religious belief of the fundamental impulses of human nature. The conception of religion precedes emotional knowledge of it; and men have endeavored to reach a full conception of it through intellectual processes, scientific and religious, through ceremonial, and through faith. Science fails in that it deals only with material facts, things that may be investigated through physical sense, and philosophy in that it gives, as a result of its deep speculations, no personal Deity. Ceremonial of course is idle. But Christ is a satisfactory revelation of God in that he gives us a conception of God within the proper meaning of the word, definite, clear-cut and satisfying; something which philosophy cannot do; and this conception satisfies the demands of the moral nature as well as the intellectual. As to the sufficiency of this conception, it is to be said that it is not complete because of the self-emptying of the Deity in Christ, and our mental inability to take hold of the Divine in its fulness. Evidence for the truth of the Christian allegations is found in the Scriptural and historic records, which in the main are well authenticated, and in the unique personality of Christ and its complete fulfilment of every requirement of the soul.
Not only does Christ satisfy the requirements of the soul but he becomes an abiding presence furnishing a standard of moral excellence and applauding or condemning or conformity or lack of conformity to that standard. By these means he progressively conforms to his own moral likeness progressively.

Criticism of the "K. U. idler."
The Kansas University Idler is the latest claimant to attention, and while hardly a bibelot in size, in sentiment has a decided leaning that way. The Idler is published by and for the students of the University of Kansas at Lawrence. It is evident from the contributions and editorial notes that the purpose of the magazine is not very distinctly outlined. There is no straining to launch new ideas or follow any of the fad schools. Rather it appears as if a group had banded together for pleasant chit-chat and had decided on the Idler as their mouthpiece. There is a pleasant flavor of amateurism permeating it that will appeal to many. Alfred Houghton Clark, a portrait painter of ability, is the illustrator, and many who admired his work in the first numbers of the Lotus will be glad to renew the acquaintance in the Idler. It is gotten up in very dainty style, the press work being done by Lawton & Burnap,—Kansas City Times.
Tomlinson Versus Rose.
Saturday, November 13, a large crowd assembled on McCook field to see a football game between the Rose and Tomlinson clubs. The game was called at 2 p.m. sharp, the halves to be twenty and fifteen minutes. The Tomlinsons kicked off, the Roses secured the ball and in the second play Owen half back, made a brilliant run of sixty yards, but was downed by Souder. For the rest of the half the ball was on Tomlinson's five and ten yard lines neither side being able to make any gains.
In the second half the Tomlinson's sent Snyder around the end repeatedly for large gains. They made a touchdown in seven minutes and Kreamer kicked goal. In the rest of the half neither side was able to do anything. Score, 6 to o in favor of the Tomlinsons.
All Western Versus Roses
A football team composed of University men from north central Kansas has been organized to play central Kansas teams at Concordia, Clay Center and other towns during the holidays. Saturday afternoon they played a practice game with the Rose club. The latter was completely outclassed. The most brilliant play of the game was made by Kreamer of the All Western. He secured the ball on a fumble and with Cluster to interfere made sixty yards and a touchdown. The All Westerns fumbled terribly, but in spite of that the score was 12 to 0 in their favor.
The Rose club team was somewhat weakened by its not being able to play three of its regular players; even Rose, the steward of the club, as a member of the organization had to play against his own club team.

HULL HOUSE EXPERIMENT.
Jane Addams' Lecture on Social Con- science
Miss Addams has a striking personality, She has a very intellectual face and a quiet untestamentable manner that gives one an inking of concealed power. Her address was free from rhetorical and oratorical effects. It was a straight-forward and convincing talk and her clear, full toned voice penetrated every cranny of Plymouth church,
She opened her address with a brief outline of the history of settlements. The first of these was a memorial to the memory of Arnold Toynbee and was established in east London. fifty years ago. Its residents have num_ered from fifteen to thirty under the leadership of Vicker Barnett of St. Jude's church. Arnold Toynbee was the first to explore East London and give to the people an account of the manners, customs and habits of the people. He found a population of some 3,000,000 many of whom were out of work, living in the most wretched poverty and squalor. There were no parks, no schools, no libraries, no anything in east London but dirt and misery. Under the influence of Toynbee Hall better streets and better sanitation have been brought

but lost two yards, more than recovering it however by the fullback fake which followed gaining twelve yards. The quarterback kick advanced the ball only five yards and Voigts got the ball. Speak made eight yards on the fullback fake and Kennedy punted forty-five yards over Woodson's head. Woodson got the ball but made no return. Fast plunged through the Kansas line for three yards but was injured and Troy took his place.
Kramer made two yards through the line, Troy five yards on left end, and K. U, took the ball on downs. Poorman tried the end for no gain, and Kennedy advanced the ball twenty yards by a quarterback kick. Missouri tried the line for no gain, and the fullback fake for no gain, and then Foster broke through and blocked Woodson's punt, falling on the ball. Kansas now had the ball on Missouri's ten yard line, but Kennedy fumbled and lost five yards. Here again Speak tried a field goal, again the ball went outside the goal posts.
Woodson punted thirty yards and Speak returned it ten yards. Poorman and Games both failed to gain and a quarterback kick advanced the ball ten yards. Missouri got the ball and made several attempts on the Kansas line. Nothing was gained and the trial at punting was blocked by Voigts. Voigts run for the ball as it rolled along the field, but not being able to pick it up without being tackled he kicked the ball over the goal line in the hopes of getting the ball and making a touchdown. But the ball struck against the stone wall at the north end of the field, bounded back and Voigts and Gentry both fell on the ball. The ball was given to Missouri, and it was called a touchback.
In the mixup Kramer was hurt and Jones took his place. Woodson punned thirty yards and Speak caught the ball and returned it fifteen yards. For the fourth time Speak tried a field goal from the forty yard line ond for the fourth time the ball went outside the goal posts. Woodson punted twenty yards, and Speak again made a place kick for forty yards. The ball was caught by Woodson on the goal line and advanced ten yards. Missouri could not gain on the Kansas line and so punted twenty yards. Kennedy caught the ball and was downed on Missouri's thirty-yard line as the whistle sounded the close of the game.
