Office of Secretary and Treasurer and Brownell's Vacancy are to be Filled at this Session At the meeting of the Board of Regents yesterday, no action was taken toward filling the office of Secretary and Treasurer, made vacant by the resignation of Mr. R. K. Moody and the position of instructor in the Law school, made vacant by the resignation of Mr. W. B. Brownell. The meeting was continued until today when these positions will probably be filled. Freshman Politics. The Freshmen, emulating the example of the their elders, the seniors, are taking a lively interest in politics this year. At the Barb caucus Tuesday three candidates for president appeared. Little and Graves of Olathe, and Pierson of Frankfort. All three of the candidates had been pulling wires all day and each one went into the caucus confident that he had things "fixed." After the meeting was organized a motion that a plurality vote should elect was passed. As a result of the first ballot, Little received 30 votes, Graves 22, and Pierson 20, whereupon the chairman declared Little the nominee. Mr. Gilliray, however, arose and informed the chairman that in order to receive a plurality a candidate must receive more than half of the votes cast. The chairman said he recollected that such was the case, and ordered another ballot which was taken, with the following result: Little 33, Garves 19, Pierson 10. Graves and Pierson then tried to make a deal, but each thought it was the duty of the other to resign, and no argument was reached. On the next ballot Little received a majority and was made the nominee. It was soon discovered that Little is an engineer, however, so the Arts held another caucus Thursday and chose W. B. Wrenn as their candidate. The work on Fowler hall is being pushed as rapidly as possible. About thirty men are engaged in the construction of the building. The walls of the first story are completed and the work on the second story is progressing very fast. FOWLER HALL NOTES The large iron smoke stack has been erected and the large boilers are being placed in position. The roof of the room at the extreme west end is nearing completion. It is not very generally known that the hall is only twenty-four feet shorter than Fresier hall, and has floor space of about 4,000 square feet. The building will be the means of attracting more students to the engineering department than heretofore, on account of the facilities for doing a high grade of work. The view from the south window of the hall will be one of the finest from any part of the University campus. Picture framing is made a specialty at Henshaws.

As announced the members of the Snow Literary society with many of their friends met in North college on last Saturday evening and listened to the first program of the year. President Baungartner welcomed all visitors and members after which Miss Ruth Whitman gave an interesting reading in a southern dialect. Mr. E. A. Scholer in an essay gave a "Freshman's First Impressions of K. U." In the debate which followed, B. W. Welch and V. D. Craig maintained that "It would not be conducive to American interests to annex the Philippines." K H. Logan and A Randall denied their arguments successfully. Mrs. Prof. Smith then gave a reading. She recites in an interesting and entertaining manner and all wished they could hear her again. Chancellor Snow then told some reminiscences of literaries in north college and gave the benefits to be derived from a literary society. The program having ended, the society thanked Chan Snow and Mrs. Prof. Smith for their encouraging presence and all were invited to "Come again." A short business meeting was held in which the constitution was amended and other matters discussed. We would say all you who wish to do good active literary work: "Come and join us." The Maeque. ONE OF EM. Repeatedly questions have asked such as: What is the Masque? Who is eligible to membership in the Masque? Perhaps an explanation of the aims and purposes of the Masque will be of interest to the readers of the Weekly. The Masque is a dramatic club, the members of which not only take part in plays given under the effective management of Miss Georgia Brown, but also take part in the weekly programs. These programs consist in recitations and talks on dramatic art. Any student or professor in the university who is interested and shows ability in such work may become a member after having been so selected by the club. It is the purpose of the club this year to have two or more plays in progress all the time, to be given publicly or privately at the discretion of the club. At present the club is working on Sunset, a pretty little drama by Jerome K. Jerome, and School for Scandal. The sound of "college songs and college merriment" will be heard no more in the land. "The society event of the season" will be taken from the boards, and many a Kansas maiden will be so disappointed, for twenty-two musicians—count the m—twenty-two—will not tour the state as they have in former years. The sandwich and coffee men of the state will be sorry, and so will the man who rents dress suits and patent leather shoes. Will White will no doubt be sorry, for how he does enjoy roasting anything connected with the University! The boys themselves are sorry, everybody is sorry. But the Chancellor says they can't go, and that's all there is to it anyway, so there! Senior Law Election. CONTRIBUTED The senior law class had a lively election Monday at 11 o'clock. The WEEKLY was in error last week when it stated that Blockberger had been elected president. On the first ballot he was chosen, but when a re-count of the votes was called for, it was found that the ballots had been destroyed and the election was declared void by the president. The following officers were also elected Vice president, Rogers; secretary, Carter treasurer, Mrs. Hyatt, sergeant at arms, Sample. At first the candidates were Blockberger, Butler and Davis, but after the first election, Butler and Davis threw their support to Decker. Blockberger was supported by the fraternities and Decker by the barbs. Monday the election resulted in favor of Perl Decker. The University Band. Through the efforts of Curtis Osborne, we are at last to have a University band. At least thirty men have signed for different instruments and among them are two men from the Indian school. The meeting for organization was held at Music hall last evening. Fred Speak went to Ann Arbor, Michigan, where he will attend school this year. K. U. VS. HASKELL. WON BY THE VARSITY TEAM, BY A SCORE OF 15 TOO. The Most Promising Candidates for Places on the Team. The 'Varsity played a practice game last Saturday afternoon with the Haskell Indinas. The Indians put up a good game but the Varsity beat them owing to the superior weight. The game developed the weak points in our team. Although the Indians did not score they succeeded in breaking through our line at will. There was good individual work on the Varsity but the interference was poor and the broken up repeatedly by the Indians Buzzi did the best offensive work, making two of the three touchdowns. Hess showed up well and whenever given the ball made good gains. Avery, Owen and Simpson did good defensive work. On the Indian team the ends played a splendid game and no gains could be made around them. The Indians had the advantage of training for they have been under the care of coach Walker since about September 15. course dates are: VOL. VII. NO. 3. The following was the line up for the 'Varsity': Wilcox, center; Mosse and Tipton, guards; Avery and Eschelle, tackles; Buzzii and Simpson, ends; Owen, quarter; Hess and Moulton, halves, and Silvers full-back. The practice game Tuesday evening was very interesting. The Scrubs scored on the "Varsity, which is quite unusual. Tucker made the touch down for the "Scrubs" and otherwise played a splendid game. The most promising candidates for the team ars as follows. Wilcoo: of Concordia who is beavy and plays a steady game will play center. Mosse will hold his old position as right guard. "Short" Hamill has reentered school will probably play left guard. In all the practices it has appeared impossible to make any gains through him. Avery will play right tackle. He plays the same game that he did last year and consequently needs no comment. It is doubtful whether Tipton or Escelle will play left tockle. Both are heavy and good men. For ends there are Simpson and Buzzi, both splendid at tackling and defensive work. Both played on the scrub team last year. Hess would have played right half, but owing to the unfortunate accident of Thursday evening, in which his arm was dislocated, his place will have to be filled by some one else, for a time at least, perhaps by Blockberger. Tucker will play left half. He is very swift, steady and fearless. He has a faculty of being where the ball is, when the opposing side has it. Owen, who plays a good snapping game, will hold the position of quarter-back. He kicks well, is good at tackling, and plays an all around good game. Silver will play full full-back. He is heavy, swift, and good at bucking the line and follows his interference well. That the men named will compose the team is only conjecture. They have shown up to the best advantage thus far, however should better men appear they will obtain places. Physical Culture Drill. Last year a petition was circulated and signed by a large number of students, asking for an army officer, who would give the students military drill in the place of the regular physical culture. We have not obtained the officer, but Professor Naismith is taking the boys through a course of military training. There are about eighty-four members in the class, almost enough to form a whole company. The practice which Professor Naismith is giving is in marching. About 600 bound volumes of public documents have been received at the library this week. These books were obtained in order to make up the complete set of public documents. The finest quality of students' supplies in toilet articles to be found in the city at DICK BROS', The Leading Drugsals of Lawrence. AMONG OTHER COLLEGES. The 1900 class of California, after much hesitation has finally decided to continue the publication of the "Blue and Gold." The Brookfield College Record is composed of a number of clip pings carefully collected by the faculty. Preparations are being made by Nebraska University for the Freshman—Sophomore field meet. Dr. Ashhead Shaefer, president of Iowa University who died last week, will be succeeded by Prof. A. N. Currier, dean of the collegiate faculty. A mass meeting was held at Iowa University for the purpose of raising some money for the athletic association. Because the freshman class in the University of California was defeated in a ball game by the sophomores, they resorted to a cane rush and tied fifty members of the sophomore class. at the Minnesota University the freshmen made their annual cane rush this week. The rush resulted in a number of bruises and a tie. As the Minnesota Ariel puts it, "the 'Naughty ones' and the 'Naughty-to-ones' broke even." The Greek Department. The Greek department received this week a valuable addition to the Classical Museum, which is being re-papered and re-arranged. The new acquisition is a fac-simile of the north frieze of the Parthenon and represents part of the cavalry in the Parthen娜 procession. The first part of the frieze received is about 52 feet long, and represents the longest portion of of the original Parthenon frieze, now preserved intact. The copy received here is the work of an Italian, Caproni, who's now doing work in Boston. Professor Wilcox has made some valuable new additions to his Greek library. The most important of his late acquisitions is a face-simile of the Papyrus manuscripts containing a large number of the productions of the lyric poet Bacchylides. These manuscripts came to light about a year ago and caused great joy to Greek scholars all over the world, for only a few fragments of the poems of Bacchylides were known at that time. The new manuscripts reveal hitherto unknown beauties of the poet Bacchylides, for his work in ancient times was considered to be nearly equal to that of Pindar and of the same general style. These poems are pretier and more graceful than Pindar's. Pindar might be compared to Brown- ing because he is abrupt and hard to understand. Bacchylides might be better compared to Shelley or Tennison. Another book of value received lately is called "The White Athenian Vases." It is a series of pictures of Athenian vases, reproduced from those in the British Museum and reproduced by means of the cyclograph, an apparatus invented by Mr. H. H. Smith of the Museum. The cyclograph is some sort of an instrument which moves around the vase and gets a photograph of all sides, making a single flat surface picture all sides of the vase. The drawings of these vases are very light and graceful. A reproduction of designs for the wall paintings of ancient Greek landscapes in the new Albertinum Museum, at Dresden, is another late acquisition. The designs were drawn by Frederick Preller. The. University Book store is showing a fine line of Austrian china, decorated with the University buildings, Haskell and the Old Windmill. In another column they describe this line, and students should examine the goods to appreciate what excellent souvenirs they will make. Read the ad.

LAWRENCE, KAN., OCT. 1, 1898 The Senior law class is to be congratulated on its new president. A desire of years is to be realized—we are to have a University band. Problem—The Medics were beaten last week by a Fort Scott high school team. What will K. U. do to them? The first game of the year will be played with the Medies at Kansas City, October 5. The railroad fare will be low on account of the carnival and every student who can should go to Kansas City and yell for the boys. In the death of President Schaeffer, Iowa university loses a friend whose interests have been for the best interest of the school. He was an ardent worker for the institution and his influence and energy will be greatly missed. Perhaps the best football game of the year will be that one played with Ames college at Lawrence, October 15. Ames college been practice about the first of August and is in splendid condition. A great deal of interest has been manifested there and the team is composed of the best men in school. The WEEKLY has been accused of being a "mugwump." It isn't that. Fairness is ever our motto. An article in the last issue caused much consternation among several members of the senior class, because they deemed the accusation false. Nearly half of the class, however, believe and uphold the author of the article. As to our policy, we would say that it is to be found in the editorial columns. Such articles as the one objected to are submitted by our respondents only after careful consideration, and to be an organ of the school, it is our duty to publish them. The first number of the Kansas University Lawyer under the new management has made its appearance. When we consider the difficulties under which the Lawyer exists, we must respect those by whose efforts it has its being. A paper devoted to the profession can not have the same support as a paper of general interest, and since the number of law students in Kansas University is small, the circulation of such a publication must necessarily be small. In the case of the Lawyer, the editor-in-chief is also the business manager, and he must publish the paper in connection with his school work. Mr. Kyle is an ardent worker and his publication is worthy of the class and school which it represents.

CULBERTSON & THOBURN. What a College Education Cannot Do. Robert Wilson Neal, who lives down at Lawrence and writes stories and essays and things, has an article in this monh's Western College Magazine, in which he kicks against the prickets because the youth of the land who go to college uncivilized don't get civilized while they are at college. He is surprised that after having taken the college cure for a year or two, young men and women are not made whole of their selfishness. He wonders that they g't away from the college without a religious and moral shaking up that would make them long for the gentle jolting of a trotting plowhorse. He is astonished that they take every chance given them to show what fools some mortals can be, and astounded that college politics is full of cliques and rings by which the student who wants something and wants it bad generally manages to get it, reform organizations, third party tickets, and Seth Low committees bucking against him with the usual fatal results—to the buckers. And he almost despairs when he realizes that the average 'sudent wouldn't give a Spanish bond for information he doesn't see hitched close up to his business wagon, We reckon he is right in thinking that college education won't civilize a degenerate cuss who hasn't got a little civilization worked in before he goes to college. But it doesn't strike us that that's anything to blame the college for. We never knew cobs to be turned into chopped corn by being run through a feed mill. The expanding youth who hasn't acquired a little unselfishness helping the old man in the cornelfield in summer and wiping his mother's dishes and lugging water for her when he's lazy about home in winter and wet weather, won't learn anything about selfishness by associating with sines and tangents. The earnest buck who hasn't thought a little about God and his own duty before he goes to college isn't likely either to enter a theological seminar or to become a philanthropist through the influence of his college education. College education won't make a respectable citizen out of a weakminded rascal who thinks there isn't any honesty in politics or out of it, or cure the idiosyncracy of the dude who goes to college only for sassiety and despises the fellow who thinks but has hard hands. And it won't make a third rate student care for liberal studies ether, at least if it does it's worth a great deal more yet than we thought. No, college education can't do any of these things, because it can't make a new of an old Adam. Human nature is about as unaltered as a plig's mind when there's a bridge to be crossed. But when a boy or girl goes to college blessed with well-broken horse sense, healthy appetite, a robust interest, and a rugged desire to become less a fool each day, he or she will find there all the improvement there is stowage for, and if Robert Wilson expects any more than this of college education, he had better compress his expectations. We don't believe he does, however. He isn't that kind of a fellow. We suspect that his ostensible criticism of college education is just a roundabout and delicute way of saying that some people get into college whose personal endowment of intellect and ability better qualifies them to set rat traps in a country grocery or to attend populist meetings.—Mail and Breeze.

If you are running a boarding club and getting a pretty good 'rake off', don't say a word about it, your boards might hear it and seek for greener fields. Don't it make you feel funny to have a "fat" man chew your "Battle-axe" and smoke your "Duke's Mixture" out on the back steps of Fraser hall, then act like he don't know you when he meets you on the street accompanied by some of his "fat" brether or sister. The tobacco on you. If you happen to cut a little ice in class politics don't it grind on your forbearance to have the biggest fool in the class get the office itch and keep calling you off to one side in the halls at all hours of the day and confidently tell you how to "work 'em?" At the beginning of the term we saw a boarding club steward hand his card to a traveling man with two big sample cases in his hands, as he alighted from a west bound passenger. As he goes to and fro on Mt. Oread, Prof. Brownell always has a nod and a smile for the passing men who are at work on the new electrical building. He is running for county attorney. There is a fellow at our boarding club who always sounds his "g" on the end of "ting" and never makes a grammatical error. He is from the State normal. Did you ever watch a freshman edge around and try to get in a conversation in which Capt. Mosse or Sam Usher were engaged? He wants to stand in with the big guns. Our idea of a hot time is 'a senior law election. Does anybody know whether Prof. Adams is staying by the football team this year, through thick and thin, so help me John Rodgers. When you die do you want some sympathetic friend who is poetically inclined to speculate in rhyme as to your probable whereabouts? Did you ever notice that there are follows on the hill who claim to be "barbs," who will accuse every "barb" that wears a clean shirt of being a "frat" rusher? A 'int you getting awful tired of watermelons at your boarding house and do they taste as good served on a plate where you are compelled to eat them with a fork, as they did when you used to steal them out of the patch, eat them without formality by burying you hungry face in their contents of "aqua pura" and then lie down to unpleasant dreams?

Last January THE UNIVERSITY BOOK STORE WE COURT COMPARISON. The girls admitted to the fraternity were Placed an order for souvenir china, with t firm in Auxerria. These goods consist of plates, cups and saucers, sugars and creams, dinner dishes, coffee mugs, dessert boxes, boxes, dishware, ashes,盘 and pen trays, comb and brush or toilet trays, tiles, etc. The decorations on the plates are Woodland and Winnimuil. Prices are so low that no one need be without a souvenir of their university days. The prices are not for their enterprise in bringing to Lawrence this elegant display of dainty china. It is only when we look for it, as they are always in all things belonging to a first class book and art store. One of the most successful imitations in the history of the fraternity was held by Pi Beta Phi last night at the home of Miss Gertrude Hill. By reason of its location this house is particularly well suited to initiations and the chance passer by was certainly edified by what he saw there last night. Every feature of the evening was a success. The mock initiation was exceptionally grewsome and blood curdling, the ritual unusually impressive, and the cooky shine and farce which are characteristic of Pi Phi initiation were particularly jolly. The girls who distinguished themselves in the latter were: Misses Gardner, Bullene Baker, Taylor, Bangs, Smith and Hutchinson. The fraternity people have been so occupied this week planning and holding their fall initiations that there has been very little other social gaiety where gaiety is usually found. The exceedingly warm weather too has somewhat weakened the interest in society which is usually so manifest at this season. SOCIETY. ___of___ Collars...2c Cuffs...4c HIGH ART FOOTWEAR. J. S.

By invitation of Mrs. Hill and as a climax to the evening's fun the whole fraternity stayed all night at the Hill home. The young women of Kappa Kappa Gamma have found it more effective to do away with the mock initiation and substitute in its place an elaborate banquet with appropriate toasts. The ceremonies held last night at the home of Mrs. Tracy Learnard were unusually impressive in character and particularly so to the five girls who were for the first time allowed to don the little golden key The new members are Misses Stella Aten, Edith Parker, Edith Parrot, Jane Harrison and Esther Wilson. The Phi Delta Theta initiation tonight promises to be an interesting one. Messrs. Murphy, Wise, Jewett and McMath will be the victims. Sam Jackman and Lonnie Wilcox are in for the occasion. Sigma Chi has already held its initiation; that of Phi Kappa Psi will occur next week. There is no definite date set for those of Kappa Alpha Theta, and Pha Gamma Delta. John Francis will be in town next week. Clifton Devereux has entered school. A very pleasant reception to students was held last night at the Friends church. Miss Olive Lewis is spending Sunday in Topeka. Miss Emma Herwich, of Humbolt, is visiting her sister, Mrs. R D. O'Leary. Devered has entered school. Lee Davies, of Kansas City, Kansas, has put on Beta colors. The Entre Nous club will be entertained Saturday night by the Misses Case. Miss Mabel Sayre was on the hill Thursday. One of the most interesting announcements of the season is that of the engagement of Miss Alberta Winnek to Mr. A. E. Wardner Jr., '98. Both the young people are very well known and their engagement is something of a surprise to their friends. The Phi Psis are spending the last of the week in Topeka, the guests of their Topeka members. Mrs Fred Buchan (nee Smith) will accompany her husband to Manila. Frank Banks is now working in Chicago in the office of the auditor of the Santa Feroad. Irving Hill of Neodosha will visit at the Deta house next week. Jus Bowersock was in town this week. The class of 1900 will revive the old custom of having a junior picnic. On next Saturday they will spend the afternoon and evening at Bismarck grove. Miss Emma Florsheim is spending Sunday at her home in Kansas City. Miss Emma Hendrick's oo and Mrs, Flynn are visiting their sister Mrs. O'Leary. Miss Henrich is on her way to Topeka to take a course in Kindergarten. Miss Emma Hyde is spending Saturday and Sunday at her home in Leavenworth, Miss Ellen Allen went to Topea Friday to visit at her home until Monday. It is the universal opinion of the students that Hi Henry's minstrels was one of the best companies that ever came to Lawrence. 4 45 Will We Play Football?

Owing to the delay in beginning, the lectures in junior and senior forensics will be given two a week, instead of one as heretofore. For up-to-date tailoring see R.E. Protsch. Wilfred Wittington entertained his brother, Jay Wittington, for a few days. Mr.Wittington is a graduate of the Engineering school. A, J. Ruth, a member of the freshman class of last year, who has been quite sick at his home, is rapidly recovering and hopes soon the re-enter the University. No lecture course will be given this year owing to the poor support given the course last year by the student body and the professors. The bureau was compelled to make up a deficit last year. The museum received a large fossil fish from Mr. Nurse of Iola Friday. The specimen is cleaned and is almost perfect in every respect. It will be described in the report now in progress. Bert Kennedy left Saturday for the University of Pennsylvania where he will attend school and play foot ball. It is reported that Bert stands a good show of becoming the captain of the "scrub" team this year. Bert will be greatly missed in athletic circles. At their meeting Thursday the junior Arts chose C. E. Klisi for their president; George Hood, vice president; Miss Turner, secretary; Miss Goodnight, treasurer; Ed Copley, seargent at arms, and A. S. Buzzi, base ball manager. There was no contest for honors. all officers receiving the unanimous vote of the class.

Prof. Walker has gone to Chicago to have the degree of Doctor of Philosophy conferred on him by the University of Chicago. At the meeting of the Sigma Xi society very interesting talks were given by Professors Marvin and Bartow on the meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Prof. Wagner also read a paper upon the history of the society. Refreshments were served. Those present were Professors Haworth, Marvin, Williston, Sayre, Newson, Dunstan, Rice, Barber, Bartow, Messrs McClung, Wagner, Beede, Stewart, Palmer and Krause. Harry Sinclair has returned to school after a week's illness. Miss Hessie B. Reed, Law '98, who i on the reportorial staff of the Kansas City Times,was in Lawrence Thursday. The Kansas City Medics defeated the St. Joe Medics to the tune of 36 to 0. Heller was the star player for the Kansas City Medics, The University authorities report a steady demand for high school science teachers, who are able to teach a majority of the sciences. The students who have specialized in one or two branches and paid very little attention to others are not able to fill the positions, and though they have been able to secure positions, the best demand is for all around science men. A number of applications have been received for Prof. Brownell's position, in anticipation of the resignation of Mr. Brownell. The following are some of the applicants: John Stowell of Seneca, S. W. Brewster of Chanute, James M. Challiss of Atchison, R. H. Bennett of Iola, W. S. Jenks of Ottawa. A partitio has been placed north and south through the center of the gymnasium and the west half is being used as a zoological and botany laboratory. In this room sinks have been constructed along the east walls and the tables extend the whole length of the building. Although it greatly reduces the size of the gymnasium, it is a great improvement for these science classes. The light is especially good. G. W. Stevenson who attended the university last year was visiting Lawrence friends Wednesday. Mr. Stevenson is running for county superintendent of Chase county this year. There was never more spirit manifester in class elections than there has been this year. In all the classes of the art school and the senior law class the contests have been very close. The barb candidates have always been the successful ones. The short grass football team, which was composed of students living near Clay Center and which won several games in that part of the country last Christmas vacation, received an offer from the agricultural college this week to play the college team at Manhattan within three weeks. Their expenses were guaranteed. Much as our boys would like to play them they cannot do so because several of their best men are on the University team and cannot get away. Prof. Topping of the high school is doing some advanced work in chemistry at the University. R. E. Trosper, a prominent populist politician of Frankfort enrolled in the Law school last week. Mr. Trosper has a son in the Twenty-second who will enter school in October. Elre Francis, of St. Marys, was the guest of E. S. Lindsas this week Miss Belle Barnes, a graduate of the Blind Institute, of Kansas City, Kansas, is doing special work in the University. The members of the electrical engineering classes are working at the new shops several hours a day. Since the usual shop work has been denied the students they have consented to assist in setting up the machinery and reconstructing that which was not too badly damaged by the fire. Work on the new shops is progressing. The two boilers have been placed in position and the foundations for the dynamos are finished. Sam Jackman visited his Phi Delt breth ren Tuesday. Prof. Sayre is using a room in the basement of the main building for his experiments in pharmacy. Prof. Sterling took supper at the training quarters Tuesday evening. The cap and gown question is agitating the minds of the Seniors. It is very probable that they will decide the question at an early date. Fred Speak who was trying for a place on the University team, has returned to his home in Kansas City. George Wood has secured the University printing. Ed Hackney, who was a representative in the legislature from Sumner County, last term and who is a graduate of the Law school, visited Lawrence friends Tuesday.

Prof. Blackmar was slightly indisposed the first of the week. Mamora Jio, who graduated from the Electrical Engineering department last year, has returned to his home in Japan and has secured a position as electrician in Tokyo. On Tuesday, October 4th, we will have on display a large and beautiful assortment of all the latest styles in millinery. The young ladies will do well to call and see the new styles. Dr. S. W. Williston and Prof. L. E. Sayre are scheduled for a series of lectures in Topeka to be delivered before the Kansas Medical college and the second o f the series was delivered by Prof. Sayre, Tu seday afternoon. MRS. GARDNER. '99 Class Election. The much mooted question of class officers was settled Thursday noon. Room 14 proved able to hold the various political 'gangs' that have occupied the halls and steps for the week past, and an orderly meeting with no bitter feeling was the result. The result of the first ballot was Lofty 24, Parrott 42, Cloyes 25. At this point Mr. Lofty withdrew, and on the second ballot, the Lofty contingent threw their whole support to Parrott electing him by a vote of 59 to 28. Mr. Parrott was then called on for a speech to which he responded in the usual terms. Miss Blakely was nominated for vice-president and being the only candidate was declared elected. The first thing that broke the tense earnestness of the meeting was when Mr. Bhinn was nominated for treasurer and he "declined to run" in such warm weather style that every one laughed. Miss Cubine was the only nominee for secretary, and was declared elected. Mr. Graham was elected treasurer. Mr. Rose was then nominated sergeant-at-arms because "he has made himself very active," as the maker of the nomination said. Mr. Rose, however, hoped that the class would not press th' is high honor on him again, and declined to run. Mr. Pratt, then nominated "an individual for the position made vacant by Mr. Rose" and named Mr. William Sutton, but as Sutton said, "that individual declined to run." The office of sergeant-at-arms was evidently to go begging, when someone had the brilliant thought to nominate Pratt, who had to accept. The next office to be filled was that of editor-in-chief of the College Annual. Miss Lee was nominated and on motion of Mr. Rose the unanimous vote of the class was polled for Miss Lee. The class then adjourned. WHERE DID YOU GET THAT HAT? AT OBER'S. They have all the late styles at popular prices—Stetson, Roelof and Guyer soft and stiff hats. We have many novelties in the cap line.

Besides a Thorough Nautical Training the Officer Who Navigates a Man-of-war Must Be Possessed of a Vast Fund of Technical Scientific Knowledge. It is doubtful if any office in the navy, aside from an absolute command, involves so vast a responsibility as that of navigator of a man-of-war. The duties of this important station in former years fell to officers of the rank of master, but with the abolition of that grade its affairs devolved upon the Heuteens holding the highest numbers on the list. Upon the navigator of a warship depends not only the task of shaping the vessel's course for any point across the seas to which her destinies may direct her, but also the responsibility of piloting her in and out of harbor and of selecting a safe anchorage for her in every port visited during the period of her cruise. Hence, it follows that, combined with a thorough nautical training, the competent navigator must be possessed of a vast fund of geographical, meteorological and hydrographical knowledge. While at sea, he must know the vessel's position to a degree, which necessitates his taking frequent observations of the celestial bodies and making solutions of intricate problems in geometry and trigonometry, such as constantly arise through deviations, brought about by innumerable causes, from her given course. Unquestionably the most important element in navigation, because of its infallibility under ordinary conditions, in determining the latitude, longitude and error in the ship's compass, is what is known in maritime phraseology as "nautical astronomy." With the aid of a sextant or quadrant for measuring the altitude of the heavenly bodies above the horizon or their distance from each other, a timepiece to mark the instant of an observation, a chronometer to show the time at the first meridian, a nautical almanac and an azimuth compass, the navigator can readily determine his position with the utmost exactitude. The average voyage is more or less characterized by erroneous estimates in distances sailed, in varying currents, careless steering, deviation in the compass and numerous other obstacles, and upon the navigator rests the responsibility of adjusting such errors. In long passages across the open sea the navigator is governed by a rather complex combination of motives, which may be summed up as follows: To cover the required distance in the shortest space of time with the smallest expenditure of fuel and the least wear and tear of the vessel that is possible. With these objects in view the navigator must prior to sailing superintendent personally the stowing of the hold, the arrangement of ballast, water, provisions, stores, etc., and the inspection and adjustment of the motive appliances of the ship, all of which features, severally and collectively, greatly affect her speed and seaworthiness. If his vessel possesses the facilities for making sail, he must atlw at sea exercise the keenest judgment and foresight as to utilizing the same, for sail used to good advantage is a great saver of coal, while otherwise, if used indiscriminately, it may entail much loss of time. The expert navigator draws the line with exceeding fineness between a high fair wind and a gale, making the most of the former as long as his vessel is not jeopardized, heaving her to at just the proper period and getting under way again at the first sign of moderation in the weather. The commander of a warship reposes the utmost confidence in a skilled and careful navigator and rarely interferes with his plans. Another of the numerous details coming under the navigator's supervision is the keeping of the ship's log. This is commenced by him at the time the vessel is placed in commission, and its pages record the events of each succeeding day. There is absolutely nothing which transpires officially on board of a man-of-war that is not written in the log, and each day the navigator must carry it to the command officer for his inspection. At the expiration of every six months the ship's log must be closed and forwarded to the navy department at Washington, where it is placed among the records. The navigator is provided with a large and varied assortment of instruments and appliances designed to facilitate his work. While in port he is often detailed to make surveys of portions of the coast line which may be defective upon the charts or to determine the exact location of rocks or shoals which hitherto have not been marked with sufficient accuracy. The navigator has charge of all the various weather indicators of the vessel and must render quarterly reports of all meteorological observations. These are taken at regular intervals by the quartermaster of the watch and fully entered upon the ship's log. The navigator must regularly inspect the steering gear, compasses, anchors and chain cables of the ship and daily report their condition to the commanding officer. He must also keep a separate book in which are recorded all calculations relating to the navigation of the vessel and in which no cruses are permitted to be made. At the expiration of the cruise this book is forwarded to the bureau of navigation. The duties of a navigating officer are more than sufficient to fully occupy his time, but, notwithstanding this fact, he frequently stands his watch at sea. While in port he is ex officio the executive officer during the latter's absence from the vessel. The illustrious Dewey was, during the earlier period of his career, an acknowledged expert as a navigator, and to his excellent ability in maneuvering may be largely accredited his splendid victory at Manila.—Philadelphia Times THE FIRST PHOTOGRAPHS. Professor Draper's Sister Sat Thirty Minutes For Her Portrait, Elizabeth Flint Wade has an illustrated paper on "Photography—Its Marsels" in St. Nicholas. The author says: The first accounts of this great discovery are very entertaining reading. Professor Morse, the inventor of the telegraph, was in Paris when the news was published, and at once went to see Daguerre's wonderful pictures. In describing them afterward he said that moving objects made no impression on the plate, for a picture taken of a crowded boulevard showed it as if entirely deserted, with the exception of a man having his shoes polished. The man's feet, he said, were well defined, because they were kept stationary, but he was without head or body, for these were in motion. To America belongs the honor of making the first photographic portrait, the artist being Professor John Draper, a professor and afterward the president of the University of New York. His victim was his sister, Miss Catherine Draper. He powdered her face, that the likeness might be more quickly impressed on the sensitive plate, and for 30 minutes Miss Draper sat—or, at least, tried to sit—as immovable as a statue. The first class in photography was formed in Boston in the spring of 1840 by daguerre's agent, Gourd of Paris. The Rev. Edward Everett Hale, then a student in Harvard, became an enthusiastic member of the class. In his diary, under date of April 1, 1840, is this entry: "On my way home I stopped at the shop and got my daguerreotype thermometer. There seems to be a great demand; there were three or four others there." He Has a Weakness For an Arryu of Family Servants. THE RICH RUSSIAN. We were a family of 8, occasionally of 10 or 12 says Prince Kropotkin in The Atlantic, but 50 servants at Moscow, and half as many more in the country, were considered not one too many. Four coachmen to attend a dozen horses, three cooks for the masters and two more for the servants, a dozen man to wait upon us at dinner time—one man, plate in hand, standing behind each person seated at the table—and girls innumerable in the maidservant's room, how but could any one do with less than this? Besides, the ambition of every landed proprietor was that everything required for his household should be made at home by his "own" men. "How nicely your piano is always tuned. I suppose Herr Schimmel must be your tuner?" one of the visitors would remark. To be able to answer, "I have my own piano tuner," was in those times the correct thing. "What beautiful pastry!" the guests would exclaim when a work of art, composed of ices and pastry, appeared toward the end of the dinner. "Confez', prince, that it comes from Tremble' (the fashionable pastry cook). "It is my own confectioner, a pupil of Tremble, whom I have allowed to show what he can do," was the reply which elicited general admiration. No greater contrast could possibly be imagined than that which existed between the Fismarck of private life and the Bismarck of politics. "In the home circle," writes a correspondent who knew him well, "he was perfectly charming, easy going and good natured. He was passionately fond of children, and I have seen him over and over again have a game with the little ones of his gardener, who were very familiar with him and would not hesitate to climb upon his knee. To have embroideries, harnesses, furniture—in fact everything—made by one's "own" men was the ideal of the rich and respected landed proprietor. Bismarek as Dr. Jekyll. "Once when his gardener's little girl died the great statesman went to contide with him. He was dreadfully upset and while holding the poor father's hand burst into tears, for he was very fond of the child. He kissed the little corpse and himself placed a bunch of roses in its hand. He was always eager to assist his poorer neighbors and enjoyed chatting with them on all subjects but politics. These he never mentioned." —London Chronicle. The Professor's Wisdom. The stern professor of the feminine preparatory school sat at his desk trying to unravel a knotty problem when a fluffy haired miss of 16 approached.

Dyche is doing no taxidemry work this year and will make no additions to the museum. The Prof. is directing all his time and energy to the zoological department which has greatly extended its course. Dr. Williston went to Topeka Wednesday to lecture before the Topeka Medical school on anatomy. Snow hall now has a store room where the students of the different departments can get all their supplies. It is located at present in room four but will soon have a special pace. This is a great convenience to both students and professors. The Biological club will meet this week for the first time this year. Last year it was the largest club in the University, and closed very enthusiastically. Volume three of the Kansas Geological survey will be issued shortly. This volume treats of coal and will be a very fine one, surpassing anything of its kind. The first part has been prepared by Professor Haworth and the second part by W. R. Crane. Crane graduated in '05 and has been working with Professor Haworth on the geological survey every summer since then. He has been teacher of science at Beloit but lately secured a good position in La Crosse, Wis. Professor Haworth lately received a letter from Dr. George Adams, who has a good position with a United States surveying party in the Indian territory. He is greatly pleased with his work. What's the Mattz' with Will White? To the Editor of the WELL KRY: Permit me to say that you do injustice to one of the best friends of the University in your declaration last week, that he $ "never misses an opportunity to criticize" the institution. If we selected the six men, outside of Lawrence, who have written the most and the most cordially for the University, Mr. White would be one of them, and near the front. We should therefore consider his criticism carefully, as "the wound of a friend," and bear it with considerable patience even when we consider it over-severe. I have not seen the criticisms of this summer to which you refer, but have seen Mr. White's strictures on some features of University life. These features are professionalism in athletics, and in sufficient training in our glee club. No one will deny, I presume, that professionalism in college athletics and the campaigning of an imperfectly trained glee club are discreditable to an institution which tolerates them. It ought to be evident, also, that only one deeply devoted to the institution or directly connected with it would feel such discredit as keenly as Mr. White does. Of course it may be denied that we have ever had professional players or ill-trained glee-club men, but Mr. White has judged with his own eyes and ears, and has a right to his own opinion. When we know that his judgment is prejudiced in our favor we ought to be slow to assume that there is something the matter with White, but re-examine ourselves to see whether the criticism is just. W. H. CARRUTH In a few weeks Professor Sterling will give lectures on Greek history.

Kansas University Defeated the Medics Bya Score of 6 to O. Score Made on a Fluke. The first game of the season is over and Kansas university has started right. The game with the Medics, Wednesday morning at exposition park was witnessed by 1500 enthusiastic people, who were about equally divided in their preferences. The game was one of those dirty ones which the medics always play with the University on their home grounds. Heller slugged, Lewis slugged, in fact nearly all the Medics were at it. They kicked, too. Blockberger received one on top of the head. Owen was kicked over the eye. Buzzi was slugged in the mouth. On the side of the University no such practices were resorted to. Barring the fumbling, the game was a good one. For the first twenty minutes it seemed that neither side would score. Then on a fumble by the Medics, Buzzi got the ball and made a run of sixty yards for a touchdown. Then it was that the spectators went wild. Such shouting and throwing of hats! Kansas City forgot her Medicis in the excitement and cheered for K. U. After that neither side scored. Tucker did some splendid tackling and so did Owen and Silver and Blockberger. Whenever the Medics were uncomfortably near Karsa's goal, Mosse punted, and always to the advantage of the 'Varsity. Hamill hardly ever got into the game because three of the Medics devoted their entire attention to him. Line up: Medics Position Kansas. Baum .center. Wilcox. Pendleton .right guard. Mosse.

Time—first half 35 minutes; second half 20 minutes. Referees, Buckholz and Piatt, The Medics rested frequently. It was an ideal day for a game About one hundred students took in the game. Lon Silver gave Holmon some pointers on catching the ball. Wilcox was always in the right place at he right time. Ch ancellor Snow was there and yelled like one of the boys. Kansas was weak on interference but strong in individual work. Our boys couldn't see the ball half the time for dodging Medic blows. Tucker was considerably bruised in the scrimmages but was game to the end. C. A. Burney, a former University student was on the field and cheered the boys. Buzzi was the best ground gainer on the team. Three men tried to stop him on his sixty yard run but without effect. Shorty Hamil seemed to be the most feared Three Medics kept watch over him for fear he would do some damage. "What can you do about it?" asked a Medic when Owen objected to having some one throw his arms about his neck. number of fist blows administered to the K, U. men showed that Pendleton was trying to carry out his assertion. An Irishman with the nom-de-plume, Roosevelt played tackle on the Medic team. He anticipated that he would be a regular rough rider, but afterward realized that he was nothing but common old Cowden. Between halves the pugilistic Pendleton in his pugilistic way, asserted that if there were not some of those Kansas men carried off the field in the second half it would be because they were tougher fellows than he thought. There were no men carried off however, but it was not the fault of Pendleton and his aggregation, for the Sal Walker took a picture of all the 'mix-ups.' When on the train on the way to Kansas City, the team sung something like this: "What will grow upon their backs? What will grow upon thier backs? Mosse will grow upon his back When we play U. M. C. And he did The Regents Meeting. At the regents' meeting Friday and Saturday of last week $100 was appropriated or assistants in teaching to the department of English history. An appropriation of $50 was made for assistants in the department of mathematics. Permission was granted to the Lawrence Electric Railway company to skirt the University campus with their lines, and in case of a depot's being established southwest of the Chemistry building, the University agrees to grade a walk to the depot. A high school inspection committee was established. The representative of the University is to visit the various high schools that are accredited as preparatory to the University, see what these schools are doing make suggestions and report to the University authorities the results of his examination. Prof. A. S. Olin was appointed. He will probably spend two days of each week during the first term in this inspection work. He has arranged an itinerary which will be given later. Vol. VII. No.4 The most important work, however, of this meeting of the regents was the election of a successor to R. K. Moody, as treasurer of the University. There were forth-six applicants for the place. On the first ballot George O. Foster polled the three populist votes of the board and Fred McKinnon the three republican votes. The voting began on Friday, but the tie was not broken until Saturday when Regent Rogers cast his vote with the republicans and elected Willis K. Folks of Lawrence, to the place. The New Music School. The music school is to be congratulated on its new home. North College having passed through many and varied stages of usefulness including imbecile asylum, private residence, foot-ball quarters and law school has at last found a fitting and it is to be hoped a permanent occupancy in the school of music. The work that has been put on the interior of the buildind this summer in tinting and papering walls, painting woodwork and general renovation has so transformed the dingy and somewhat delapidated looking foot ball quarters that its inmates of last winter would hardly know them. The lower floor is occupied by Prof. Penny's and Prof. Farrell's departments, while Prof. Preyer and Miss Lichtenwalter hold sway on the upper floor. Prof. Penny occupies at present the northeast room, which is newly papered and painted and the stained floor has been covered up, the last remnants of football revels have vanished. Adjoining this room is Prof. Penny's private office. Across the hall is Prof. Farrell's room. Engravings and photographs of great musicians and singers line the walls and dainty white curtains at the windows add a finishing touch to the general attractiveness of the room. Miss Wilson, instructor in piano-force, is fitting up the fourth room on this floor. Upstairs the large dormitory room has been transformed into a well equipped audience hall admirably fitted for recitals and musical programs. The raised stage shut off from this hall by large folding doors makes a convenient little music room which has been artistically arranged by Prof. Preyer, and joining which is his private office. Miss Lichtenwalter occupies the remain- ing room on this floor, and has made it one of the most attractive in the building. In order to correspond with its elevated location, the music school has raised its standard of entrance, 'making the requirements the same as in the school of arts, with the exception of two years' language work. This is a step in the right direction and will mean an added efficiency in the work done. The department of music enters upon the year under very encouraging aspects, having enrolled already fifteen more than last year. Captain Track Athletics. In the absence of Fred Speak, who was captain of the track athletic team for 98, a meeting was called for Monday noon by A. S. L. Mosse for the election of captain for 99. Nearly every member of the '98 track athletic team who is in school, was at the meeting. F. R. Moulton was put in nomination for caption and was immediately unanimously elected. At the field meet of the University and also at the state meet Moulton made himself very popular with all by easily capturing first prizes in the 100 yard and 220 yard dashes and by running his quarter of a mile in the relay race in fifty-two seconds without practice. Moulton takes great interest in all kinds of athletic sports, especially track athletics and his selection as captain of the '99 team is a good one. With his push and energy, if K, U. gives him the proper support we will have a field meet next spring far superior to any we have had heretofore. SNOW HALL NOTES Stanton from Washington was here this week looking over our paleontological collection. Prof. Craigin of Denver is here, contemplating his Ph. D. in paleontology. Mr Bunker and others have been making large collections of clams which they will send to Leland Stanford university. The Biological club meets every Thursday from 4 to 5. The following program was rendered this week: "Bacteriological Laboratory of Harvard University," Mr. Barber; "Summer Field Work," Dr. Williston; "Biological Laboratories of the University of Chicago," Mr. McClung; "Field Work in Western Kansas," Mr. Hunter. Professor Hunter spent a couple of weeks in September '97 in the alfalfa region of western Kansas studying the grasshopper pest. He was earnestly requested to return last summer and did so taking a tent and full laboratory equipment. He made his headquarters for a month in a 4,000 acre alfalfa field in Ford county, the farmers furnishing him two assistants and what other aid they could. While here he had requests to visit Finny and Hamilton counties. Here he made several field experiments before large numbers of farmers which proved very satisfactory. At the same time he received letters and a package of specimens from the Board of Trade at Colorado Springs. From Hamilton county he drove to the northwest part of the state, passing through fifteen counties, making a survey of certain forms of life. Since his retire the professor has been flooded with letter asking advice and information in regard to the grasshopper, which has become so serious a problem to the alfalfa grower. The results of the trip have been successful in the highest degree, and the professor's report will be a most valuable document. The University Band. The University band met Friday evening of last week and organized. Osborn was elected director, Buttomer business manager, and Hood secretary and treasurer. About twenty-five men were present, all of whom have had experience in band work. Among the men who have signed up are E. Robitaille, leader of the Haskell band, J. C. Buttomer, a former leader of the Olathe band; L. H. Bower of Independence, and Hood. The instrumentation so far is flute, two pic cols, four clarinets, six cornets, four altos, four trombones, two b flat basses, euphoniums, two tubas, bass and snare drums. The first rehearsal was held Tuesday evening, but rehearsals will hereafter be held on Saturday morning if a room can be secured. All of the members are enthusiastic and an excellent band is assured.

Despite the roasts which the University band receives at the hands of state papers, it will exist and will be a success. All it now needs is some recognition by the faculty. Tom McNeal in Topeka Mall and Breez: The horror writers who have been writing war stories and telling about camp conditions will now turn their attention to football. There were about 150 athletic tickets sold before October 1st. Such a small sale is very disheartening to those who participate in athletics and reflects little credit on the student body. The new engineering shops will be completed soon. When they are finished Kansas university will offer the best opportunities for the study of civil and electrical engineering of any school in the west. The best game of the season will be played on McCook field October 15, between Ames, of Iowa, and K. U. Every student should be present and give encouragement to the boys. Wear your ribbons and yell. --the brow of each player on the 'Varsity team, and there was an angry gleam in each eye, that boded no good to the Medios. Too high praise cannot be given Buzzi for his work on the team at Kansas City last Wednesday. He played a splendid game throughout and when the time came, made a remarkable touchdown, which won the game for K. U. Wednesday was the first day he ever played the position of half back Several old K. U. students are holding good positions on Kansas City papers. Walter Sanford is police court reporter for the Star; Hillard Johnson hold the same position on the Journal; F. L. Shellabarger is sporting editor for the Journal and Miss Menet is society edl or on the Journal. Kansas City people seem to know where to go for talent, The members of the team came back from Kansas City in a terrible condition, and the next evening when they were called out on the field they refused or were unable to go. Coach Woodruff with his usual hastiness severely criticised the boys and some of them left the training quarters. The affair will probably be satisfactorily arranged. The boys played like heroes at Kansas City but Coach Woodruff with his desire for a winning team forgot the cost and hence the trouble. The Medics at Kansas City put up an article of football last Wednesday that will live in the memory of those who saw it for many years. There never was a driiter game of football played. The Medics slugged and kicked continually. They wryled on every occasion. Once they trapped Avery when he was to take the ball, and they frequently held our men. When objections were raised the referees refused to act. On the side of the University there were no actions to regret. Our boys went at it with a quiet determination, received blows and gave none in return, and won. Yet when the game was over an angry flush mantled The Baker Orange is inquiring whether the "other" college papers are still asleep. We find them very much awake. SOCIETY. University society seems to have settled down into the old ruts in which it has glided so smoothly for so many winters. The football season is on, the Woman's league opened its series of receptions, and the usual round of card parties and hops enliven the end of each week. Altogether our social machine is well oiled and gives promise of running without interruption throughout the season. The carnival festivities in Kansas City took a great many out of town during the week, but this did not interfere with the usual Friday and Saturday night gaieties of which one of the pleasantest was the dance given last night in Frazer hall by the Independents. The The music was by Saunders' orchestra, and the evening was thoroughly enjoyed by those present. The most important event in fraternity circles this week is the Phi Delt hop given tonight in their new quarters in Journal hall. This will usher in a series of parties which this fraternity will give during the winter. Among the guests this evening will be Misses Smith, Pugh, Parker, Hutchinson, Lee, Spaulding, Leslie, Sayre, Dowsock, Wagstaff, Hill, Taylor and Spencer, Messrs Hamilton, House, Smith, House, Ide, Henley, Henrv and Devereux. On Wednesday at the home of the bride in West Lawrence Miss Frances A Herrington was married to Mr. Parke A. Williamson of Edwardsville. Both the young people are very well known here having been former University students. Soc Owing to the change in the weather the junior picnic which was to have been held this afternoon in Bismarck grove, was changed to a class spread which will be given tonight in Frazier hall. Misses Ida and Louise Smith entertained yesterday afternoon in honor of Miss Emily Hulme. ■ Misses Harriet and Elizabeth Ayres entertained informally at cards last night. The Pbi Delta Piis have pledged Sample Poison, Blockberger and McKeever. The Phi Gams will initiate Cochran, Reitz and Sinclair tonight. Mr. L.-Z. Wise of Hutchinson is in the city spending a day or two with his daughter Miss Marguerite Wise. Dale Goar was in town the other day. He will attend the convention of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity which meets next week in Pittsburg, and then will go on to New York to enter the law school of Columbia University. Frank Parent is enjoying a visit from his mother. The Phi Delts have taken Journal hall for the season. The Phi Delta Phis initiated H.G McKeever Monday night at the offices in the National bank building. Among those who have been in Kansas City this week are Misses Bullene, Frederica Bullene, Leach, Peck, Morris, Ayres, McCrory, Stone, Parker, Best, Flinton, Moore; Messrs. Parent, Shinn, Pratt, Kane, Annan, Copley and Carroll. Miss Nettie Manley has enjoyed a visit from her mother this week. Mrs. Scott Hopkins, of Holton, visited her son Ross this week. Mrs. Lora E. Messenger was on the hill one day this week. She leaves next week for Albuquerque, New Mexico to join her husband who is Superintendent of schools there The Woman's League gave its first reception of the season this afternoon at the residence of Prof Blackmar on Ohio street. These receptions have come to be a regular feature of our social life and are deservedly popular. Miss Scammon of Cherokee has been the guest of her sister and other friends for the week. Lon Silvers is a pledged Beta. Invitations have been received in Lawrence e the marriage of Miss Viola De Weese of Wamego to Dr. Simoutore of the same place. The wedding will occur the 19th of this month. Miss De Weese is very well known in Lawrence and University society, having attended school here several years ago. Mrs. E, D. Adams and childdre have returned from spending the summer in Michigan. Miss Ethel Luther is spending the winter with relatives in Pennsylvania. Miss Nell Hawkins of Ottawa was married on' Wednesday to Mr. John Leaville of St. Joseph. Mrs. Hawkins graduated Mrs. Houston Whiteside of Hutchinson visited her niece Miss Winslow Hutchinson this week. Miss Georgia Cubine entertained the Entre Nuis club this afternoon. here in 94 and was very popular while in school. Miss Lucy Van Hoesen is studying kindergarten in Chicago. When interviewed by a WEEKLY reporter today, Mr. P. S. Elliott, who is general manager of the K. U. lecture course, said: Manager Elliott Talks "Yes, we are going to have a lecture course at the University this winter and it is going to be a good one too. At a recent meeting of the committee, consisting of Chancellor Snow, Prof. Blackmar, R. K Moody and myself, it was decided to begin pushing the sale of tickets at once. We will have eight numbers in the course consisting of musical entertainments, lectures, impersonations, etc., and the entire course will only cost $2. It's our aim to make this a popular lecture course, the net receipts of which will go to the pipe organ fund. This in debtedness must be met in some way, and we know of no better way to meet it than to get up a course of entertainments and give the students of the University and the people of Lawrence a chance to show their loyalty. The people of Lawrence have shown their loyalty to the University on more than one occasion, and we feel sure that they will do so in this case. And it goes without saying that every student of the institution should show a loyal spirit by furthering the intitution in every way possible. This is a worthy cause, and we shall live the people a first class lecture course and we feel sure that we will receive their hearty support." Analyzing for Poison. When it is surmized that some person in the state came to his death from poisoning, the stomach is sent to the University and analyzed by Professor Sayre and his assistants. The stomach of Mrs. Kunkel, a Law rence woman, who died recently, was analyzed and unmistakable traces o arsenic were found. At the residence of the bride's parents, 601 Alabama street, Rev. W. W. Ayres officerizing Frances Adelaide Herrington, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. Herrington was married to Mr. Park A. Williamson, at noon Wednesday. Only members of the families and their most intimate friends were present. Mr. and Mrs. Williamson left on the afternoon train for their home at Edwardsville, Kan. Mr. and Mrs Williamson are each known among a large circle of friends, both in and out of the University. Mr. Williamson was graduated from the engineering school in 1890, is a successful civil engineer in Kansas City, and manages a prosperous farm at Edwardsville. Mrs Williamson is known for excellent scholarship in the University, and in social and church circles for her charms of personality and earnestness of purpose. Her many friends will rejoice less in her happiness only because of their regret at losing her from among them. The K. U. football team has the first regular football game with Haskell today. A short practice game was played with Haskell Tuesday evening. The University Book store is showing a fine line of Austrian china, decorated with the university buildings, Haskell and the Old Windmill.

Folks in this city and county will be glad to learn of his good fortune in having been elected to the important office of secretary, treasurer and purchasing agent of the state university, at a salary of $1,350 a year, by the regents at their meeting at Lawrence last Saturday. It is stated that there were forty-six applicants for the place and the board spent an entire day trying to reach a decision, the three republican members supporting one man and the three populists another, Chancellor Snow declining to vote. Finally Mr. Folks' name was presented by Regent J. W. Forney, and he received the votes of the three republican members besides that of William Rogers, populist, and was declared elected. Mr. Folks now resides near Lawrence on a fruit farm about two miles west of town, to which he removed from Wellington last spring. Mr. Folks' financial circumstances are such that the salary given the office will be no special attraction to him, but he will prove a splendid selection for the position. Wellington people who have known Mr. Folks these many years hold his business abilities in high esteem, and are satisfied that the regents chose more wisely than they knew. He will handle the finances of the university with excellent judgment, and if new and more up-to-date methods are needed anywhere along he line Mr. Folks will be very apt to introduce them. The papers in speaking of his politics class Mr. Folks as a republican, which is a mistake. His party affiliations of late years have been with the probitionists and populists, though he was always liberal enough to vote for the best men for local offices without regard to the ticket they were on.—Wellington Monitor Press.

Sophomore Class Election. The Sophomores hold their class election September 30 in Prof. Millers's room. The candidates named in the Barb caucus were all elected without opposition. No Frat candidates being placed before the class. H.H. Tangeman was unanimously elected president; Mr. E. D. Collins, Miss Lillian Barth and Blaine Moore were elected vice president, secretary and treasurer, respectively. A committee of three composed of Renn, Stafford, Scharard was appointed to select class colors. A committee of one was appointed to receive suggestions from members of the class concerning a class well. The meeting was then adjourned subject to the call of the president. With its strong corps of officers the Sophomore class certainly begins the year under favorable auspices. It is to be hoped that the general good feeling which prevailed during its first meeting will continue through the career of the class of 1902. In response to a bulletin, a mass meeting of students was held last Monday evening in the court house for the purpose of organizing a K. U. Republican club. The time of the meeting not being generally known the attendance was not what it otherwise would have been. The meeting was called to order by Tom Harley, chairman of the Douglas county central committee and a temporary organization was effected. W. R. Smith was elected chairman and C. N. Belcher, secretary. It was decided to meet Monday evening, Oct. 10, to form a permanent organization. During the past two weeks papers, have been circulated among the students to obtain the signatures of those interested in the movement. The number of signers gives the assurance of a very large club and shows the republican strength to be formidable. K.U. Republican Club. Mr. William Stanley of Chapman, Kan., was the guest of Miss Mae Sight the latter part of last week. Mr. Stanley came for the purpose of arranging a game between the Dickinson county high school football team and the Scrubs. He reports that the D.C. H. S. team is especially strong this year. For several years past they have held the championship of central Kansas, and are confident they can make the scrubs tight hard for their laurels. Miss Nelle Hawkins, of Ottawa, was married at her home there Wednesday to Mr. John LaVelle, a traveling man, whose home is at Clarinda, Iowa. Miss Hawkins has a large number of acquaintances in Lawrence, having attended Kansas university for a couple of years.

There is to be an innovation in chapel services. A meeting of some of the young ladies, Thursday afternoon, was held for the purpose of getting an interest among the young ladies to join the chapel choir. The association of collegiate alumnae has this year awarded its European fellowship to Miss Caroline F. Stewart, a graduate of this institution and, in '97, the holder of a scholarship at Bryn Mawr. Prof. A. S. Olin has started on his first tour of inspection of the high schools of the state, to ascertain whether or not they are doing the work required for entrance to Kansas University, in a proper manner.

The collection was made by Prof. Hugo Kahl before he came to this country and has been carefully prepared and classified by himself. The collection is a very valuable addition to the museum. Charles Pope, pharmacy '97, who has been holding a good position in a drug store, in Kansas City for some time past, now owns half interest in a drug store in Mount Hope Kansas and is doing a flourishing business. He was marred last week. The new pipe organ will have to be taken down and rebuilt on account of the work done in the chapel this summer, from which small particles of lime got into the pipes and mechanism of the organ and ruined its musical qualities. The only by which method this can be remedied is by the rebuilding of the organ, but it will then be just as good as new. At the last meeting of the Sigma Xi fraternity the society decided to add a new feature to the exercises of commencement week. It is intended to devote one of the evenings to a Sigma Xi lecture by some prominent and well known scientific man from the University, or some of the neighboring institutions. For several past years it has been the custom of the literary fraternity, Phi Beta Kappa, having some one of the local members of the society give an address. The popularity of this feature of the commencement exercises appears to be increasing, and it was thought well to add this new feature to the exercises. At North College the Snow Literary society rendered the following program before a fair-sized audience: SNOW LITERARY. Essay, "Higher Education," O. K Baker. Declamation, Jno. Devlin. Extempore, "College Politics," H. H. Tanegem. Debate—Question, "Resolved That War Has Benefitted Human." F. L. Glick, W. J. Bungartner I. M. Morscher, E. A. Scholer. The affirmative seemed to carry off the calm. In his report as critic Prot. Leary encouraged the society and gave one profitable hints. At the business meeting the following officers were elected for the ensuing months Pres. W. J. Baumgartner; Vice President Jno. Devlin; Secretary S.G. Elliott; treasurer, B.F. Moore; sergeant, B.W. Welch. It was decided to provide a reporter for the WEEKLY, and Mr. Baumgartner waa given the place. Five names were added to the list of members and three names were proposed for membership. The society extends a cordial welcome to everybody to attend their meetings, and to all students who do not do literary work elsewhere to join them and do work with them. Lady students are especially invited to come and join the society. It is not a society for men only. The regular meeting of the Athletic Association was held Tuesday noon, Oct. 4. Very little interest was manifested at the election as the slate had been prepared beforehand, and everyone knew how he was going to cast his vote. The reading of the minutes was dispensed with, directors failed to report but the treasurer submitted the following report by proxy. Athletic Association Meeting. The following directors were elected: At large—J. W. Green. Football—Prof. Sterling, H. H. Hess, Base Ball—C. E. Rose, A. R. Williams. Tennis—E. F. Shinn, Syd. Griggs.

CONGLOMERATE "Oh, you call them non-fraternity men, do you," said the new and very important Beta to the lenient new Kappa. "We just call them barbs." A barb girl casually remarked to a fraternity girl that another fraternity had succeeded in pledging the girl whom she and her sisters had been rushing to death. "Oh," she said, "we didn't want her anyway. I know we asked her and of course had to rush after that. Why, just think of it, we asked her to dinner and she ate her pie from her fingers. Said one young lady to another at a dancing party: 'I hope that fellow over there is not a particular friend or relative of yours for I think he looks like a circus clown.' And then there was a sudden frost for he was the other girl's betrothed. A freshman was heard inquiring where the chapel tickets were sold. The same innocent was worrying for fear one of the professors had noticed him fail to take a responsive reading and song book as he breathtably rushed into chapel one morning. "Would you please be so kind as to tell me where I may file this petition?" asked a timid little girl of a haughty senior. I was an application for membership in the Phi Beta Kappa fraternity. The Senior smiled and explained, then praised the ambition of the aspirant for college honors. The professor was calling the roll in the first year German class. "Frulein Blank," he said. "Blank is my last name but you have not my first name correct." a voice answered from the far end of the room. He was a senior Civil Engineer and she a Fine Arts student. They were talking of the merits of different colleges when she asked: "What do you think of William Jewell?" "I don't think I have the pleasure of knowing the gentleman," was his startling answer. AMONG THE COLLEGES. Two professors in the University of Michigan died this summer. Professor Edward L. Walker was one of the unfortunates who went down in the steamer Burgoyne. Judge Thomas M. Cooley died on the 18th of September of paralysis. - At California university a cage 78 feet long 24 feet wide and 20 feet high has been erected on the college campus where next years team is to practice base ball. Three students of Nebraska who enlisted died recently of disease contracted in camp. Eugene V. Debs and Wm. J. Bryan are to lecture before the Good Government club in Michigan University. Iowa University held a field meet last Saturday. Washington University can well be proud of her Student Life. The Vidette Reporter, a four column folio, which has lively students on its staff, makes an appeal for news to the students and faculty of the University of Iowa. The University band now has the approval of the faculty, but the members will not feel perfectly at ease until they bear from Will White. It is our observation that the junior laws stick to celluloid collars longer than any other class of students. On last Saturday evening a number of young men paraded up and down Massachusetts streets attired in ridiculous costumes and acting very silly generally. They were just getting used to making fools of themselves. SOCIOLOGY NOTES. The different members of the class are engaged in working up their special subjects assigned to them. As there are over fifty members in the class, a great variety of subjects will be reported upon. The Seminary of Sociology and Political Economy was organized Monday. About twenty were present. Mr. William Sutton will review Thoron Cook's article "The Minimum Capital of a National Bank," which appears in the October number of the North American Review. Mr. Cook is a graduate of the University. The following is a partial list of subjects that have been assigned to members of the class: A. Prehistoric Man-Cave Men, Cliff Dwellers, Shell Mounds, Lake Dwellers, River Drift Man, Sumatri or Burial Mounds, Primitive Man in France, Primitive Man in Britain, The Paleolithic Stone Age, The Neolitic Stone Age, The Aztec, ancient, The Toltec, ancient, The Peruvians, ancient, Santa Barbara Indians, Mound Builders. B, Conditions of living tribes-Australian, Audoman, Fuegians, Soundan Negroes Sioux Indians, Commanche Indians, Pueblo Indians, Navajo Indians, Moqui Indians, Alaskan Indians. Topics relating to the progress of man—Early forms of food, the first means of shelter, discovery and use of fire, cooking untsils, clothing-first form, weaving and spinning, discovery and use of metals, use of pottery, the bow and arrow weapons, early religious ideas, religious ceremony, dancing ceremony. Music and Poetry, Jewelry and Ornamentation, Family Organization, Social Condition of Women, The Division of Labor, Ethical Ideas, Aesthetic Ideas and The Decorative Art, The Use of Colors, Domestication of Animals, Origin of Agriculture, Irrigation, The Origin of Language, War as a Civilizer, Tribal Organisation, Religious Ceremony. This department has lately received several valuable additions in books, Razel's History of Mankind and The Cliff Dwellers of the Mesa Verde by Nordenskiold. On Athletics. The chancellor gave a very interesting talk in chapel Monday morning on the subject of athletics. He began by stating that it seemed rather strange that the subject of athletics should take the place of the regular morning exercises, but it was something that had been neglected in this country as well as in this University. He also pointed out that athletic nations were the leaders in the world, giving as an example Germany, which is athletic, and contrasting it with Spain which is not. Students in universities should and must have recreation and exercise and this is one of the most legitimate as well as the most profitable way of obtaining it. He urged a greater and more enthusiastic interest in athletics, but condemned anything on the order of professionalism, and in conclusion urged that in the election Tuesday, men should be chosen who would not tolerate or allow anything along this line. A New Means of Support. A large number of the students of the University are self supporting. For example, there is the book agent, the stereoscope view canvasser, and the other confidence men who operate in the rural districts during the summer months and attend school in the winter; there is the laundry agent, the paper carrier,and the man [who does "whatever he can;" there is also the club steward who doesn't work at all but from a long sanctioned custom is supported by the charity of others. But a new field is now opened to the ambitious youth of the land who long for an education but haven't the coin. A certain young man who entered school this fall brought with him the family cow and now dispenses spare Jersey milk to the people on his block. Here's to the Kansas cow! She not only supports the farmer's family,but she educates his children as well! CHEMISTRY NOTES. The Kansas Academy of Science will meet this year at Topeka on Thursday, Dec. 29. This is directly following the State Teachers meeting, and a large attendance is expected. Most of our scientific professors and some students attend these meetings which are of great interest, as numerous papers of importance are read. Mr. C. B. Highbargin of 'S7, Arts, who also studied in the school of Pharmacy, has returned from Colorado to this state and is now the proprietor of a drug store at Eureka. Miss Blanche Thoburn of '96, was a short time ago appointed to the position of Professor of Chemistry in a medical college in Desmoines, Iowa. An article on Formaldehyde as a preservative for cider, by E. H. S. Bailey and C. W. Rankin, appeared in the September number of the Bulletin of Pharmacy, E. P. Irwin has received an appointment as chemist at a sugar factory in Texas and left on Saturday for that state. Several inquiries have been received at the University by Chancellor Snow in reference to what is known as the snapping or chick beetle. A special inquiry has just come from Salina. It is the larvae of this beetle which has destroyed so many corn and wheat fields in Krnas. W. J. Rothrock has gone to Burnside, La as assistant to his brother, who is chemist at the sugar factory there. For picture frames, text books, and stationery see B. W Henshaw, 917 Mass. street. Of all the silly imitations used by fraternities, the most silly is that of branding with fire, acids or iodine. How foolish the victim of such nonsense must feel; and there is scarce a doubt that the members of these organizations who are the perpetrators feel themselves guilty of having taken an undue advantage of the candidate. Here It Is Again. The latest evidence of this child's play is the case of a certain young lady who bears upon her forehead "where he who runs may read" three Greek letters caused from silver nitrate or nitric acid Now she must attend classes bearing this symbol of love, hope and faith upon her forehead, an object of general comment and sympathy. How peculiar this fraternity must feel to see this young woman in the halls and class rooms parading this emblem of their own stupidity before the public. AMUSEMENTS. THINGS THEATRICAL. Manager Bowersock of the theatre is to be congratulated on securing for Lawrence, October 12 and 13, Thurston's Musical Comedy company in such successful productions as the twentieth century edition of the polite hurrah comedy, "A Booming Town," with its irresistible attractions, also the Irish farce comedy, "Muldoon the Plonic." This is the first season that an attraction of this magnitude has played at popular prices, 10, 20 and 30 cents. On their opening night any lady will be admitted free if accompanied by one paid 80 cent ticket if purchased before 7 p. m. the theatre going public of this city will no doubt welcome the twentieth century farcial success, "A Booming Town," which will positively appear Wednesday and Thursday, October 12 and 13, clad in its new attire, consisting of scenery, effects, etc., and presented by the original New York Casino cast. Notwithstanding the enormous expense attached to an attraction of this character, Manager Bowersock has had the prices reduced to 10, 20 and 30 cents. And it is advisable to all who wish to attend to secure seats now at Dick's drug store, as the demand for them will be great.

More than a thousand people saw Ames college defeated by the Varsity team on McCook field this afternoon. Excursion rates had been offered on the railroads and many people came from Topeka, Hutchinson and Kansas City. Tallyhos had been ordered months ahead by out-of-town parties for the event, and the griditon was lined with gaily decorated carriages. The fraternities too were out in carriages and traps. The University band made its first appearance before the public on this occasion. Altogether it was a gal's day. The weather was very pleasant—just cold enough to make it pleasant for both spectators and players. For the first half of the game a stiff breeze was blowing from the south, but it gradually died down. There was the characteristic fumbling of the 'Varsity and several times' it was very expensive to the team. It was on account of these fumbles that Ames succeeded in scoring at all. Yet on the whole the University team played a brilliant game. A number of the fakes worked successfully and in individual work every man distinguished himself. Buzzi proved again today to be the best ground gainer. He made forty yards on a fake and had he not ran too fast for his interference, would have made a touchdown. Mosse when given the ball never failed to make good gains. He bucked the line time and time again and never for a loss. In tackling too he did some brilliant work. Twice he sized Ames' men by the shoulders, lifted them from the ground and threw them back for a loss. The Ames men played an all around good game. Mains was very swift and made a number of good runs and returns. Their interference was especially good. They repeatedly ran our ends for good gains, especially the right one. Their mass plays had but little effect upon the 'Varsity however they made good gains twice over center. The line up was as follows: K. U. Position. Ames. Wilcox . . . center. Allen Mosse . . . right guard. Scholte Hamill. left guard. Chambers Smith. right tackle. Dumphrey Tipton. left tackle. Echels Avery. right end. Griffith Simpson. left end. Edson Owen. quarter. Walker Buzzi. right half. Roberts Tucker. left half. Smith Silver. full back. Mains Mosse wins the toss and chooses the east goal. The referee was Harry Heller of Kansas City, William Matteson of Abilene acted as ampire. Ames twice bucks the line for no gains and then Roberts punts thirty-five yards to Owen who fumbles in the scrimmage for the ball. Buzzi kicks thirty-five yards and Ames gets the ball. Mains kicks out of bounds. Mosse kicks off sixty yards from the twenty-five yard line, and the ball is not returned by Ames. Ames twice more bucks the line but can make no gain. Roberts takes the ball around right end for fifteen yards. Then they mass on tackle for one yard. Smith follows with a gain of twenty yards around left end. Ames loses seven yards on a fumble but regains the ball. Smith takes the ball for one yard and Mains takes a punt, but Tucker succeeds in breaking through the line and blocking it for fifteen yards toss to Ames. Ames again regains the ball. Roberts loses two yards, Edson tries left end and has gained five yards, when Mosse siezes him by the shoulders and throws him back six yards. Mains punts fifteen yards out of bounds, Kansas' ball.

There were twenty-two of them and Coach Woodruff, and they all played football. But two touchdowns were made, one by the 'Varsity and one by the "scrubs". J. C. Buttomer has been appointed captain of the scrubs and it is due to big efforts that so many were on the field. University Republican Club.

On their way they will play Tarkio and a number of minor college teams. They will go as far east as Perdure university. Owing to the efficient training of "Sai" Walker, it may be assumed that they will play good games at every place. The Chancellor received an anonymous letter this week severely criticizing him for the examination questions he offered at the recent state examination. The letter was printed, the address on the envelop stenciled and postmarked Iowa. The chancellor's fairness is unquestioned by those who know him, and the letter is considered as a medium of revenge which some person who was unable to pass the examination employed. Never has there been such practice games on McCook field, as those which football enthusiasts have been witnessing every afternoon this week. And it is all a result of the announcement that a second eleven will be chosen to play the high school elevenths of Kansas City, Topoka, and Leavenworth, respectively. This week the usual number of "scrubs" has been doubled and it is only with great effort that the 'Varsity scores against them. The lecture course this year will be perhaps the best course that has ever been offered to the students and citizens of Lawrence. Instead of the usual' six numbers there will be eight and they will be the best attractions that can be secured. Arrangements have been made with Miss Georgia Brown whereby her "School for Scandal" will be made one of the features of the course. Miss Brown's ability is well known to Lawrence people and her play will doubtless prove a success. Two of the numbers of the course will be given at the Bowersock opera house and the advantage of location will doubtless be appreciated by Lawrence people. It is hoped that some year in the near future all the concerts and impersonations may be given at the opera house. There is a committee on the athletic board which for several years past has been a committee in name only. Nothing has been done to necessitate that committee being retained on the athletic board. We refer to the committee on boating. We have such a committee on the athletic board, but why have it if no result follows? Here at Lawrence we have the advantages of a good course for boating. Why not develop this branch of athletics? There is no doubt that interest in boating could be made as great as that in baseball in the spring if the committee whose duty it is to give a foundation for such interest would only start the ball rolling or the boat rowing. The committee on boating this year is J. H. Kane and F. C. Beck. If all those who are interested in seeing the boating feature of athletics developed will assist the committee, and give it assurance that their efforts will not be in vain, there is no reason why boating crews cannot be organized next spring. --times and Nebraska has captured it twice. At the opening of the season o' 98, the M. S. U.'s, prospects are poorest but her admirers may be assured that by Thanksgiving she will have a tear worthy of her record.—W. H. H. Dlatt in Western College Magazine. The present indications are that Kansas will have the champion team in the western association again this year. In six years Kansas has won the pennant four SOCIETY. It is not many years since the term University society was synonymous with fraternity society. To be out of a fraternity was to be out of society. The non-fraternity element might dominate in politics or athletics, but in society the fraternities held undisputed sway; the barb was not even considered. This state of affairs is far from being true now, however, for the barbs are even more active socially than the fraternities. It is even said that a popular barb girl has opportunities for going to more parties in a season than the equally popular frat girl. However true this may be it is certain that the series of hops given every season without the aid of fraternity people is one of the most delightful features of the winter, while the larger "Annuals" are in every particular second to no parties given during the year. On last Saturday night the juniors gave the first class party of the season. The entertainment was to have been in the form of a picnic, but owing to the weather it was changed to a spread which combined all the pleasant features of a picnic and party. The principal amusements of the evening were the old fashioned games and country dances of Old Dan Tucker, Skip-to-my-Lou, and the Virginia Reel. Every one entered into the spirit of the thing and any stiffness or formality was soon done away with. Not the least important feature of the evening was the spread itself. This was very informal and was followed by a short program of toasts Frank Post acting as toastmaster. Those who responded were Messrs Klise, McFarland and Hood, and Miss Goodnight. The whole affair was very enjoyable and the Juniors have proven themselves so capable of entertaining that the Seniors may expect a very successful Prom. Miss Virginia McCrory spent the first of the week in Kansas City, the guest of Miss Frances Lee. While there Miss McCrory assisted at a reception given by Miss Lee. Mrs. George T. Nicholson, of Chicago, spentthe first of the week with her sister, Miss Carrie Watson. A prominent feature of our society this winter will be the dancing classes conducted by Miss Eugenia Piatt and Miss Eva Brown. Miss Piatt's class meets on Saturday evenings in Frazier hall, and Miss Brown's is held on the same evenings in Pythian hall. Both young ladies opened their seasons on this week with very delightful hops at which many University young people were present. Mrs. J. W.

Mr. Sampson graduated in 97 and was very prominent in the University. Mr. John Francis, of Colony, is visiting friends in the city. The University band furnished the music at the football game today. It is the prevailing idea that proceeds of the lecture course this year will be used to defray the expenses of rebuilding the pipe organ in the chapel. This view is erroneous. The Chancellor has arranged to have the organ rebuilt at state expense, so that the funds derived from the course will be used to lessen the original debt upon the organ.

The object of the meeting was to stir up enthusiasm among the students for the coming football games, and to arrange a systematic method of cheering. However, with such a small attendance, the matter had to be dropped. It is very seldom that these meetings attain their end, while in other colleges similar meetings have a large attendance and those present always leave highly enthusiastic. These meetings when successful, make the student feel his duty toward enterprises of the school, and he fulills them. At Kansas University there is never a unity of interest. Students seem to forget how they might aid those who represent the school in athletics and debate by their presence and by encouragement from the side lines or audience. In the coming football games the 'Varsity team will always endeavor to keep the crimson and the blue unsuilled, but if such misfortune as defeat should occur, the team must not be censured until the student body has done its duty.

They backed the line for good gains, and ran the ends successfully. On interference they were very strong. Last Wednesday evening on McCook field, the 'Varsity and Haskell team played a very pretty game. In the first several minutes of play, Haskell scored a touchdown but owing to the wind, was unable to kick a goal. They got the ball on a fumble and tucker was unable to break the interference. Buzzi threw the man but it was after he had passed the line. The Indians had the ball in Kansas' territory nearly all of the time, and seemed in a fair way to make a second touchdown, when time was called. For the 'Varsity, Tucker was the best ground gainer. The 'Varsity did not play in as good form as usual, perhaps because of the hard practice they have had for the two previous evenings. Tom Smith played tackle Tuesday evening for the first time, and in the game, he did good work for the 'Varsity. He is a strong player, and his work is especially good when it is considered that he has just returned from the army and has not played at all since the beginning of last season. Several times he broke through the Indian line and prevented Haskell from making a gain. Tucker made both touchdowns for the 'Varsity. Once he bucked the line for a touchdown and the second time got the ball on a mistake of signal and made a run of forty yards, for a touchdown.

U. 30 INDIANS O. Saturday. A Good Game on Mcook Field Last Saturday The Kansas university team defeated the Indians last Saturday in a good exhibition game. The Indians, although much lighter than the 'Varsity, always put up a good game, owing to the training of Wm. Walker. Their plays are good, and they work as a team, but the superior weight of the 'Varsity held them down. In the first three minutes of play Kansas university made a touchdown and Mosse kicked a goal. In the same half following in rapid succession four more touchdowns were made. In the second half Harrison was substituted in the place of Silver, and Algie was placed on end. In this half Mosse tried punting continually. For some time the 'Varsity gained, but when the Indian full back returned the punts, the grains were very small. In the second half the Indians repeatedly broke through and blocked Mosse's punts. The team showed up well in individual work. Simpson repeated Buzz's trick at Kansas City—got the ball on a fumble and ran sixty-five yards for a touchdown. Do you dance? If not go to Pythian hall Saturday evening and try.

On the ground floor there will be a long aquarium room, with three pools on one side and extensive animal rooms on the other. The largest pool located in the center, will be a fresh water basin, divided into nine principal sections. These sections will contain frogs, reptiles, and a great many species of fresh water fishes and invertebrates. The remaining two pools are to be of fresh and salt water respectively, each divided into numerous sections, the salt water basin to contain small sharks, sea urchins, star fish, anemones and other marine invertebrates. "Special attention will be given to bees, the hives being arranged in a long row upstairs. Certain bees will be marked, so that their weight can be determined before they leave the building and after their return. Ants, moths wasps and other insects will be kept for study. "Specimens of nearly all the families of the smaller mammals, such as rats, mice, squirrels, rabbits and opusmos, will be kept on the other side of the aquarium. Their houses will be so constructed that it will be possible to investigate and determine their daily and nocturnal habits. "Another interesting part of this live house is a large wing which will be devoted to many varieties of birds, such as the owl, the sparrow, the gold-finch; bats will also be kept in this portion of the building. "It is the purpose of the Biological department to collect this valuable material for the use of students in research work, for the different classes, and for experimental work; the desire being to introduce the study of living creatures in schools and universities, instead of dead ones, as is the custom now. This vivarium is the first of its kind in this country, and so far as known no university in the world is provided with such a building. It should furnish a great stimulus to zoological work in our university and community." — Pennsylvanian. The athletic board in the University of Michigan hired a coach last week for Freshmen only. This is to arouse enthusiasm in football among new students. A new lot of gold fish at Raymond's drug store. AT ZOOK'S Opera House Grocery ZOOK.

Prof. Carnruth called the club to order and opened up an informal discussion as to when the club should hold its meetings. It was finally decided that 5 o'clock Friday evening should be the hour named for at least the first three or four weeks. Mr. Engle was chosen chairman and Miss Olivierson secretary. Prof. Carruth gave an outline of the work pursued by the club and the general character of the programs and suggested that Mr. Engle be requested to give at the next meeting a description of the German club at Harvard, of which he had been a member during the past year. Mr. Engle made a few remarks, and spoke of the German play, which was such a marked feature of the Harvard club, and suggested that the society might attempt something along the same line.

Dr. Howland in the presence of only a few relatives and intimate friends. The house was hand-somely decorated with dahlia and palms, and the wedding took place in the picture gallery under the celebrated Mesdag picture on the west wall of the room. □ After the wedding and congratulations □ After the wedding and congratulations, a wedding breakfast was served.

A. at Harvard last year. He is a member of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity. He met his wife while traveling in Europe and the friendship there commenced ripened into the affection which brought about the marriage. At present Mr. Cooke is cashier of the bank of Herrington, and has also gained considerable recognition in literary work Mr. and Mrs. Cooke will be at home after November first in Herrington.

While Many Are in Favor of the Project. The class of '99 at a recent meeting decided not only to wear the caps and gowns during commencement week as has been the custom for the past two years, but to procure the gowns as soon as possible and wear them on all public occasions. It was felt that in this way class spirit and enthusiasm would be increased and a feeling of closer fellowship procured. In connection with the discussion over caps and gowns came up the question of the faculty wearing these also at commencement time, and interest was manifested as to the opinion of the faculty in the matter. Following are the results of interviews with some of its members on the subject. The opinions are interesting from their very diversity. Dr. Williston is not to be mistaken. "Wear caps and gowns? Well, you know what I think of it. I am heartily in favor and talked for it in the council of last year. Of course there is the matter of expense which some urge and to some of the younger professors that is an important item. A professor's cap and gowns $40 or $50's although cheaper ones may be had. You see the professor's gown is not like yours. It has a hood with colors on it to denote the college and degree. I wish they might be adopted here. I saw the advantage of them at Chicago and Yale where I was so long. They tend to give uniformity in appearance and add to the class and college spirit." Judge Green speaks with no less decision, if perhaps in fewer words. "If the faculty should make a rule to adopt the cep and egp I would resign my position within twenty-four hours." Professor Dunlaye "I would like very much to see the custom introduced here. It is one I have always been used to and have always liked. It lends dignity to commencement exercises and solemnity to the occasion. It arouses college feeling. I should favor their being worn on all important and dignified occasions." Prof Wilcox: Pilot: Witcher. "I can tell you in a few words my feelings on the matter. I believe it is an antiquated custom and will not be perpetuated here. It does not seem to me to be in accordance with a progressive and democratic spirit. It tends to set apart college bred men from others instead of emphasizing their brotherhood with all and this separation is one that we do not want. Professor Walker favors the wearing of the cap and gown by both faculty and seniors Professor Engle doesn't quite know—would like to give the matter more thought before giving an opinion. He liked what he saw of it in Chicago and on the whole is inclined to think it a good thing. Professor Hopkins-thinks it a fine custom and would like to see it inguaged but thinks the time has not yet come. Such an innovation would probably cause an outflow over the state and might prove a bad thing for the University. Personally he would be proud to wear again the orange and black of Princeton, his Alma Mater. Professor Jones does not like the ideas, does not think it in good keeping with our civilization. Professor Canfield thinks it a good thing for the seniors and would be willing to wear the gown if other members of the faculty were in favor. The distinction it gives the seniors is "a good thing. There is not enough reverence for seniors in the university. In the cast no Freshman will apply for any office in governing University affairs. This is right as the senior's four years experience puts him in a better position to judge of the welfare of the University. Miss Galloo approves. Any body of persons present a much better appearance with common uniform than otherwise. Within a school it is a pretty custom. The late president episode, however, carries things a little too far. think that not all the faculty should appear in cap and gown but only the chancellor and deans of departments. Professor Blake and Professor Dunstan "As a usual thing I don't believe in ceremony; in this cas I d-Id." Commencement week is not made formal or impressive enough with us." Prof. Penny says: Professor Miller is not; sure it would be a good thing. If all were agreed he would be willing. Professor Stevens believes the seniors should wear them but not the faculty. Professor Dyhae: "I don't believe in it. The professors do enough foolish things now without having to hunt up more. It is all right for seniors, though; people come to commencement to see the seniors and not the faculty. They might not be able to tell us apart if we wore the things, too." Miss Oliver, Mrs. Smith and Miss Wat son all favor the idea. "I have always been used to the custom and am thoroughly in favor of it." Professor Carruth: Professor Marvin like the custom for the seniors, but not for the faculty. Professor Naismith says: "I like the looks of it, but am not quite sure that I approve the principle underlying it. Still, on the whole, I believe it is harmless and very effective display, and if the students adopt the custom I should favor the faculty's doing so also. The gown is aesthetic and does away with all dress display at commencement time which I believe is a good thing. As a general thing I do not like anything that sets apart one class of people from another by any outward mark or badge, but here it does not seem to me the effect would be harmful. Of course we would have fun poked at us by the profane world, but then the profane world would enjoy looking at us at the same time, and I don't know as I care about the fun. Professor Blackmar believes in it thoroughly both for faculty and seniors. Chancellor Snow says: "I have two very serious objections to the custom of wearing caps and gowns by the faculty. In the first place I do not like the distinctions made by the different gowns. To me such distinctions approach snobbery. In the second place we lay ourselves open to ridicule by the state. The majority of Kansans would have no sympathy for such a form, Read what the papers have said about McKinley!" "I don't approve of the idea at all. It is all right for the seniors. This is too democratic a state for such a custom." NOW AN ARMY SURGEON. Professor Adams: Dr. John S. Werer, G3, Appointed Surgeon of Volunteers. Dr. John S. Wever, son of Dr. J. L. Wever of Leavenworth, has been appointed by the adjutant general, assistant surgeon with the rank of first lieutenant in the 7th regiment U.S. Volunteers (colored). This "immune" regiment now stationed at Lexington, Ky., will go to Cuba or Porto Rico about December 1. The doctor expects at the expiration of his service to return to Leavenworth, his native city. In a practice game the other evening at the University of Pennsylvania, the scrubs defeated the 'Varsity team by a score of 6 to 0. An eastern paper in speaking of the practice game, spoke at some length of the playing of Bert Kennedy, who was quarterback on the scrubs. It said that Kennedy played his position better than it has ever been played on the University of Pennsylvania grounds. He put more life into the scrubs, handled the ball better and put up a better article of interference. Praise for; Kennedy. There is no doubt that Kennedy will make a reputation for himself and for the school where he got his early training next year when he plays on the team. Let us hope that he will follow in the 'footsteps of Johnny Outland and become Pennsylvania's captain is '00. Dramatic Club Play Postponed. The presentation of "My Wife's Bonnet" by the University Dramatic club, which was to have taken place next Thursday evening has been postponed, and will not be given until after "A School for Scandal" has been presented The reason for the postponement is that a number of plays are billed for next week. SOCIOLOGY NOTES The classes in political economy and sociology have become so large that it has been necessary to add another large table in order to accommodate the students. Prof. Blackmar indulged his class in sociology by giving them a quiz Tuesday. The Economic seminary met Monday at 4 o'clock. The subject for discussion was the conduct of the war with Spain from the points of sanitation, hospital service, and commissary. The discussion was participated in by Messrs Moore, Kane, Copley and Prof. Blackmar. Among other points the following conclusions were reached. First: That unnecessary suffering was entailed on account of the neglect of duty, but more especially on account of the poor military organization. Vol VII. No. 6. The University Band. Second: That the national guard was poorly organized and ill prepared for war There should be a law requiring the National guard to be commanded by officers of the regular army, and when placed under inspection of federal army officers and found fully equipped and drilled such regiment should be required to perform military service outside of the present territory of the United States. Third: A large amount of sickness was inevitable when a large number of men from the north were plunged into a hot climate tainted with malaria. Fourth: The death rate was not great, indeed it was small compared with other military exploits. Sixth, the average volunteer private does not know how to care for himself in trying campaigns and the average under officer appears to know little about caring for the health of the boys Fifth: The haste necessary to accomplish anything rendered the commissary department and the hospital corps inefficient. J. L. Lizberg will have a paper on "The Recent Coal Strike in Illinois" for the next meeting. The band which has been progressing very rapidly under the leadership of Mr. Curtis Osborne is receiving much praise from the students and faculty. The Storm. A number of thorough musicians are members of the band. Curtis Osborne who plays cornet has had considerable experience in music, and is the composer of the "Rock Chalk two-step. John Merrill, who also plays a cornet, has had experience on the stage as a soloist. Every member is deserving of high praise and is highly interested in making the band a success. Through the efforts of Manager Butomer, two engagements for next week have been secured, one for a politics meeting and one for the presentation on My Wife's Bonnet, by the K. U dramatic club. Monday morning the hill presented a very old appearance, especially for the time of year. Students who had early classes were continually on the lookout for branches which were falling from the trees under the weight of the snow. A chilly wind whistled across Mt. Oread and masses of snow fell from the buildings. The telephone wires were broken down and were not repaired until Thursday. The telephone pole at the campus gate was broken off at the base and fell across the walk. A number of classes had to be dismissed on account of the cold. Until Thursday, work on the Fowler shops progressed but slowly. FOOTBALL NOTES. At the University Alumni association meeting last June it was decided to have the local officers of the association prepare and publish an Alumni catalogue of the institution. In pursuance of the authorization of the association, work has begun. A previous catalogue was issued in 1890, compiled by Prof. Wilson Sterling. Since that time a copy of an alumni catalogue has been prepared by Mr. Archie Hoge, but he was unable to secure its publication. There can be no doubt as to the successful completion of the present undertaking as the work is to be pushed forward with vigor. Miss Lillian Hamilton and Miss Mary Tucker of Eureka attended the Y. W. C. A. convention and visited University friends this week. The practices this week have been very hard on the boys but it is giving hem endurance. They have been practicing west of the campus in a tumble field. The place has however, an advantage over McCook field in that the ground is soft. The most remarkable thing at the training quarters is the rapidity with which the team is increasing in weight. Nearly every man has gained five pounds, and Owen has gained eleven. The average weight of the team now is about 191 pounds and of the line is 202 pounds. Every man is very active There is a good deal of uncalled for criticism falling upon the shoulders of one or two men on account of fumbles. These errors should not all be counted against one man but the whole team should be blamed. The quarterback is censured for all the fumbles that have been made in the last week, but close observation shows him to be at fault very rarely. Owen, too, has many times distinguished himself in tackling and recovering the ball. "Shorty" Parrot is trying for quarterback on the team. Hess, who injured his arm on the field several weeks ago, has been cut on the field practicing. He will be unable to play before the Nebraska game. A new style of football buttons has been ordered which will be here shortly before the Kansas-Nebraska game, which is to be played November 5th. The buttons will be about two inches in diameter and will bear the letter "K". At the bottom of the buttons a rabbit will be attached. It is the same style button which the Harvard students wear. Kansas University never had a more orderly set of fellows for their representatives on the gridiron. The remainder of the games which the "Varsity will play, are Warrensburg today, at Warrensburg; University of Minnesota at St. Paul, October 20; Nebraska, at Lawrence, November 5th; University Medical college at Lawrence, Nov. 2. The "scrubs" will play the high school teams of Leavenworth, Topeka and Kansas City, but the dates and places have not yet been decided upon. New Opera Chosen—A Reunion of European Students to Hold Star KANSAST UNIVERSITY ALUMNIASSGICATION AT KANSAST CITY Former Students to Be Held Soon. The alumni association of the University of Kansas, at its last annual meeting' at the Coates House last night elected E. C. Meservey, president, Rolla Mitchell secretary, and W. E. Higgins treasurer for the ensuing year. Mr. Meservey is senior member of the law firm of Meservey, Fierce & German, and one of the best known graduates of the University of Kansas. Rolla Mitchell was manager of the Kansas football team in '95 and is now in the employ of the freight department of the Kansas City, Pittsburg & Gulf railroad. W. E. Higgins is a young attorney in the New York Life building. The retiring officers are Dr. E. G. Blair, president, and Russell R. Whitman, secretary. At the meeting it was decided to have a University of Kansas lovefeast at an early date to bring all the former Kansas students of the two Kansas City's together. Chancellor Snow and several other members of the University of Kansas will probably be present. The association will also have an excursion and special train to Lawrence on November 5 to see the Kansas-Nebraska football game. Miss Gertrude Dillon of Eureka was visiting her brother Arthur, the latter part of the week. Pictures. We have just received a very nice line of Platmo Types and also some miniature Colored Photographs, including a fine assortment of Colorady scenery. It would pay you to see them. PRICES REASONABLE.

With the event of rain, snow, and slush mud, it seems in order to klick. One thousand students are obliged daily to travel toward the University over the most abominable sidewalks to be found in the city of Lawrence. Among the few favors which the students receive at the hands of the people of Lawrence, in return for patronage, the chief should be good sidewalks. Prof. Carruth's translation of Prof. Camill's "People of Israel," has just made its appearance in book form. The translation has just been published in the Open Court as a serial. This book, like all others of Professor Carruth's, is receiving very favorable comment at the hands of the critics. Prof. Carruth since his connection with the University has edited editions of Wilhelm Tell, Wallenstein and Ekkehard, which are used as texts in a number of colleges. His "Wilhelm Tell" is especially valuable. At its last meeting the senior class decided to wear caps and gowns. As an innovation they will wear them through nearly the whole of the year. The custom of wearing caps and gowns so common in eastern schools has never been practiced in Kansas university or other western schools except at commencement, and doubtless it will seem strange to see the already dignified seniors strolling about wearing the unmistakable badge of superiority before the envious eyes of the lower classmen. If the custom is to be established at the University the faculty should also cooperate in wearing like apparel. THE NEW SHOPS. in us aggressive age of progress, it takes push and energy to maintain a place in the front ranks. It is the age of growth and expansion. If anyone appreciates this fact it is certainly the Jayhawkers. That is why they got out early in the morning away back in the 60's and put up a little building and called it Kansas University. That is why they are still hammering away late at night on the fine new structure which will soon be dedicated, Fowler Hall. The first builders were necessarily very modest in their plans, yet, although many of them were fresh from the great eastern Universities, they were proud of their work and placed their unpretending little school high up on the top of a hill as a landmark and a guide of civilization overlooking the broad fertile plains of the great west. This was just the beginning, the starting point, the nucleus around which should grow and expand a great American University. If some of the members of the first classes should return to K. U., after a continued absence since graduation what a great change they would see had taken place on Mount Oread! From a very humble beginning the University has risen to a front place among the educational institutions of the country. No state university west of the Mississippi out-ranks Kansas and there are but few of the older state schools east that can boast of better equipment or higher courses of study. Students from Kansas University receive prompt recognition in both Harvard and Yale. Yet the University is still forging ahead. The latest advance has been made by the engineering school, and it has taken a great step formard, a step which lifts us to a still higher place among state institutions of learning. The work of this department up to '91 was done in the arts school but in that year the engineering school was organized. It now has a faculty of twenty professors and assistants, a high standard of admission, a thorough course in civil and electrical engineering leading to the degree of bachelor of science, a graduate school leading to the professional degree of engineering, and will soon possess, in the completion and furnishing of Fowler hall, the largest and best equipped school of its kind from the Mississippi to the Pacific. It is largely due to the generosity of George A. Fowler, of Kansas City, a personal friend of Prof. Blake through whom the gift was made, that we now possess such a grand addition to K. U. His first offer was $18,000 which he afterwards raised to $21,000. The building is large, commmodious and suitable in every detail for the work to be carried on within its walls. In length it is 224 feet, in width so feet. Besides what was saved from the fire in the spring the machinery will cost $20,000. Everything will be up to date and of the very latest patern. In this respect the school will be much superior to many of the best eastern polytechnic schools, and the shops will also be larger. Old methods and old ideas have been cast aside and many new and interesting features will be noticed. The forge room will no longer be a duty and uninviting place but a neat and clean apartment with the forges all operated by large blast and exhaust fans. A patent method of firing the boilers will be instituted and smoke will become an unknown quantity. In the two great furnaces, instead of burning the coal direct under the boiler, the coal will be placed in a large retort and the hot gas coming out in an atmosphere of steam and air will ignite and produce combustion. This is far cleaner and more economical than the old method. The little old fashioned oil can has been forced to an unconditional surrender and banished from the engine room in disgrace, with its chronic leaking and untidy appearance. The oiling of all parts of the engine is now performed automatically from a central distributive system. Electricity takes very important place in the new order of things. Two powerful dynamo have been installed. One of them, 90 horse power, is used for lighting, and the other, 90 horse power, for power to run the machinery of the shop. The shafting is all run by electricity. Sixteen different circuits run from Fowler hall to the other buildings for lighting and a greater variety of other purposes. The senior class has as a problem the work of wiring and piping the building, a very difficult and practical task must determine the size and distribution of all the wires and pipe. Besides the larger dynamos there two three smaller ones for lighting and heating purposes. The shops will have a brass foundry where the students can make their own castings. A pattern maker's shop will be added where they will make their own patterns. Then there will be a hydraulic testing room and a machine room. The engineering "fend" will certainly have cause to revel and mingle his ejaculation with the hum and whir of the delicate and powerful machinery. The facilities for studying electricity will be unsurpassed by anything so far attempted in this part of the United States. Prof. Blake, who is looked upon as authority on physics and electricity, spent part of the year on the coast in conducting experiments for the United States government with wireless telegraphy and the water-telephone which he invented. He will conduct many new experiments during the coming year. A large testing machine designed by Prof. Palmer for use in the study of the strength of materials will be made this year by the engineering students. Students are set to putting up machinery and are thereby gathering some very valuable knowledge. They are assigned in shifts of seven or eight and given practical work in wiring, tiling etc. The regular work commences next term. The Freshman Civil and Electrical engineers watch the work very anxiously to see that it is done right and as tile after ile goes upon the roof, their heads are thrown back and they begin to realize the earth is theirs. The Engineers are very loyal to their de partment and quickly resent any uncalled for remarks concerning it. They are as a class, ambitious and patriotic and stick close together. Their one speciality outside of engineering is snow-balling. A Freshman engineer delights in telling a Freshman pharmacic an old tradition of how the Pharmices once waylaid the Engineers with soft ice balls and how the Engineers at first scattered, finally rallied and drove their rivals off the hill. The enrollment of the school is constantly on the increase. More have registered this year than in any year previous and students are still coming in. The inducements to students are such that many enroll from Kansas City and the neighboring states every year. Many new students are expected to enter at the beginning of the new term. When the Engineers have taken possession of their new quarters another period in our advancement and growth will have commenced. With the addition of another building on the grounds our progress will not have stopped however. In the plan of the University campus mapped out by Prof. Marvin and the Engineering school there are still vacant places marked after this fashion: Law school, museum, observatory, etc. No doubt these places will sometime be filled and glorious work done therein. Who would venture to say what changes the graduate of today will observe when after twenty-five or thirty years he returns to his Alma Mater to once more shout the beloved "Rock Chalk" and wave once more the "crimson and blue" so often seen displayed before in the face of witness. SNOW LITERARY. At North College on last Saturday evening the Snow Literary society gave a interesting program. Mr. F. B Porter read a very instructive essay; Prof. Smith recited in a very able manner "The Old Settler's Story." All present appreciated the selection very much Mr. E. A. Schaealer talked extemporaneously on "Some Peculiarities of German." A pleasant social chat was enjoyed during recess, after which came the debate. The question was. Resolved, that it will be advantageous to the nation to give woman the ballot Mr Gwin and Mr. Moore defended the affirmative, and Mr. Baumgartner and Mr. Sloan appeared for the negative. The palm of victory was given to the affirmative and the negative have since wondered if that was not only another display of "man's chivalrous feeling toward woman." Prof. Vickery then gave his report as critic, which was more of a general talk on the work to be done in a literary and the benefits derived from such work. He also suggested some plans for literary societies, saying that twelve members were enough and that every member should be on the program for every meeting. The members felt encouraged by the professor's remarks and all were instructed. Students, the largest line of Underwear in the city at The Racket, 828 Mass.

It is often said that there is no society in Lawrence other than that furnished by the University. This is manifestly true but the statement may be narrowed still more and the assertion made that Lawrence society is fraternity society. Of the so called "smart set" in town nearly all the young women and men too have been or are prominent in fraternities, and for this reason the connection between this set and the frat crowd in the college is particularly strong. On account of the interest of these town members the annual frat dances are quite the largest events in Lawrence society during the season. The fraternities are having a great deal of difficulty in securing suitable vehicles in which to attend the football game on the fifth. Two of the girl's fraternities, rather than to go in shabby hacks, have decided to have a line party on the bleachers. It is rather surprising to learn how large a number of the University girls is included in the membership of the Y. W. C. A. These girls have been very much occupied this week in preparing for the state convention, which is in session here. The social feature of the convention was the reception to the delegates last night in the parlors of the Congregational church. Formal invitations were issued to the members of the faculty and their wives and the ministers of the town. The other guests included the visiting delegates, and the members of the local chapters of the Y. W. C. A. and Y. M. C. A. On entering the prettily decorated rooms, the guests were received by a committee consisting of Misses Henderson, Snow, Oliver, Barth, Bailey, Parrott; Messrs, Jones, Tangeman and Jewett. During the evening the young people listened to the story of the Lake Geneva Convention as told by the delegates who attended it. Music also was a feature of the evening, one of the most pleasing numbers being the solo by Miss Connelly. Light refreshments were served under the supervision of Misses Hyde, Reenn and Creager. The barbs gave the second of their series of dances last night in Pythian hall. The usual people were present and had the good time that is characteristic of this jolly crowd. The Theta will hold their fall initiation tonight. The young women who will be admitted are Misses Pearl Constable, Nina Drake, Maria Nelson and Rachel Guch. Miss Olivia Henley of Westchester, Penn., is the guest of her Aunt, Mrs. B W. Woodward. Miss Lucile Mulvane is the guest of Miss Marie Morris. Miss Olive Glazier, of Newton, was visiting University friends on Thursday. Misses Gertrude Boughton and Madge Bullene were on the hill one day this week. Mrs. M. A. Ewing, of Iola, visited her daughter this week. At the birthday party given by the ladies of the Episcopal church Tuesday night one of the most amusing features was the solo cake-walk given by Miss May Sexton and Mr. Will Cockins. Miss Eleanor Gephart is the guest of Miss Bortha Bowen. Profs. Walker and Kahl gave an informal duplicate whist smoker at the Phi Psi house one evening this week. I. C. STEVENSON, Principal.

Misses Edith and Eleanor Perkins of Manhattan have put on the two blues of Kappa Kappa Gamma. The Pt Phis will give a dance the night before the big football game. At the recent photographers convention in Topeka the photograph of Miss Grace Knetner of Junction City was pronounced to be that of the most beautiful woman in Kansas. Her picture appeared in a recent issue of the Mail and Breeze. Miss Ketter has many friends in Lawrence, have visited here last winter as the guest of Miss Nell Blakely. Harry Clarke was in town for a few days this week. Miss Emma Fliersheism is spending Sunday at her home in Kansas City. Miss Augusta Flintom went to Wamengo this week to attend the marriage of Miss Viola Dweese to Dr. Simonton. The wedding occurred on Wednesday. The University Whist club has reorganized and will hold its first meeting soon. Mrs. Fred Buchan, nee Smith, expects to sail for Manila, via Honolulu, on the 29th of this month. The Pi Phis are planning another initiation. The Kappas have pledged Miss Bartha Miller of St Joseph. Adelphic Literary. The Adelphic Literary society has started out this year with its usual life and vim. It meets Saturday evening of each week in Frazer hall. This is the oldest and most successful literary society of the University. Its program consists of all kinds of liter- ary work, music, essays, stories, talks, declamations, recitations and debates. The past history of this society shows that it contains the best talent that is on the hill. Five of the six debators that met Missouri and Nebraska last year in our friendly battle for honor were members of this society, and we see no reason why we will not be as successful this year. All students of the University can be members no difference to what department they belong; we all meet with equal favor here. Visitors are always welcome and we extend to each and every student of the University a friendly invitation to attend. Very respectfully. CORRESPONDING SECRETARY.

Watson was not able to attend to her duties the first of the week on account of a very severe cold. Many of the wires and poles of the University telephone system were broken down by the storm Sunday night. Will Brewster, class '90, was a visitor in Lawrence Sunday. Mr. Brewster is at present connected with the Iola Register, at Iola, Kansas. Mrs. J. P. Engle, of Alden, Kansas, is visiting her son Prof. Engle. Ms Engle is returning from a visit in Iowa and the Omaha exposition. A translation of Prof. Cammil's history of the "People of Isreal," by Prof. Carruth, has just appeared in book form. It has been running as a series of articles in the Open Court. The students in elocution will see themselves as others see them, owing to the fact that a large mirror has been added to the equipment of the department of elocution. This addition to the department will greatly aid in the development of facial expression—a long felt want. Members of the Glee club state that if their work of last year failed to approach the ideal of their critics, the reason for such failure must not be attributed to inefficiency or lack of interest on the part of their musical director. Those who opposed the organization from start to finish can readily see how little such opposition contributed to the success of the organization. Prof. Olin visited the high schools of Argentine and Olathe last week. In both these schools University graduates are at work—Miss Margaret Rush at Argentine, and Messrs H. P. Butcher and J. O. Hall at Olathe. The latter city has an exceptionally strong high school for a place of its size; thirty-two members in its senior class. Several graduates from this school are now enrolled in the University, and students, teachers and school officers are enthusiastic and loyal to K. U. Argentine is a flourishing railroad town and has made a good beginning in first-class high school work.

The Resolution Adopted Was the Outcome of the soilding Coach Wood-ruff Gave the Football Team Three Weeks Ago on McCook Field. Dr. Wylie G. Woodruff, coach of the Kansas university football team, has been asked to resign. The request comes from the Kansas university faculty council, and is embodied in a resolution adopted at an adjourned meeting held last evening. The cause of the trouble is the scolding Coach Woodruff publicly gave the team on McCook field a couple of days after the Medic game, in the course of which he roundly scored the players for their slow and fumbling playing. In the course of his remarks on that occasion he swore at the players. This is what caused the trouble. At the time Hamill, Buzzi and Blockberger left the field. Dr. Woodruff afterwards apologized to the players and to Chancellor Snow he submitted a written apology for his display of temper. The apology was accepted by the players, and all returned to their work except Blockberger, who has still refused to come out for practice. The faculty council did not so easily smooth over the matter, however, and their action last night was the result. The matter has been before the council ever since the occurrence on McCook field. Last Tuesday night at a regular meeting it came up for action. There was a heated debate, but no decision was reached, and the council adjourned to meet again last evening in special session to dispose of the subject. At the Tuesday night meeting three plans were suggested for the disposal of the affair. To accept Woodruff's apology; to disapprove of the contract between him and the athletic association; to remove him as coach. The plan as adopted last night in the resolution passed expressed strong disapproval of Mr. Woodruff's actions, his violent display of temper and his profane language on the field, and directed Chancellor Snow to inform Mr. Woodruff that his resignation would be accepted by the faculty council, at the earliest date he could give it. This resolution was not adopted till after considerable debate and much heated discussion. It was finally passed by a close vote of seven to six. While the resolution says the resignation will be accepted at once, it is understood that Dr. Woodruff will coach the team for the remainder of the season, and then quit, though he may decide that the strained relations made greater by this action on the part of the council, will make it best for him to immediately sever his relations with the team. The news of the action of the council was suppressed by the University authorities, though it leaked out from other sources; and was not known to the members of the football team when approached on the subject this morning. As the boys had not heard of the matter, and had had no time for consultation, they were unable to tell what effect the action would have on the work of the team for the rest of the season — Lawrence Journal. The first number of the lecture course will be that of the Louise Brehany concert company October 21. This concert will be given at the opera house. There will probably be but one lecture.

Blackmar's paper read before the Kansas State Irrigation society and published in the Kansas University Quarterly. There are enormous tracts of land in the west which, with proper irrigation, would support here in the United States probably the densest population in the world. This is the ultimate fact of interest now chiefly in setting at rest any bugaboo scare about population outrunning the means of subsistence. The immediate interest of the west in irrigation lies, as we have suggested, more in its social consequences. This view of the subject is well set forth by Prof. F.W. Blackmar, of Kansas university, in a paper contributed to the Kansas university Quarterly. It seems to us a note-worthy and very encouraging thing that one of the clearest analyses of the needs of the west, from a broad scientific standpoint, that has recently appeared should come out of the west itself. There is a sense, however, in which this is not surprising. Probably there is more real serious thinking and study on social and economical questions among the rank and file of the population of the west than in any other section of the country, which is merely another way of saying that despite all the mistaken notions and crazes that have come so far, and will come, the west is in a more hopeful condition as regards the final correction of these problems than is the east. It is more than probable that when the first emotional impulses for any kind of social reform have spent their force, and a broader knowledge takes the place of the superficial trash that has been vended throughout the west as economics and sociology during the last dozen or fifteen years some great and far-reaching movements of genuine social reform will come out of that wonderful alieny beyond the Missi sippi and carry the whole nation up to higher standards of economic, social and civil life. Scattered indications of the saner attitude of the western mind are important just because they denote the trend such an indication (for it is little more, perhaps) is this article by Prof. Blackmar.'

AMUSEMENTS. "A Bunch of Keys," polished up to date, Hoyt's best satire, still possesses great attraction for the theater-going public. It is essentially an entertainment for the masses, and in that draws the patrons of farce comedy. This rattling façial production bristles with funny situations so closely following upon each other that the audience is in almost a continual peal of laughter until the final fall of the curtain. The songs, dances, and medleys, which form an important item of the play, are entirely new and are nicely rendered. Miss Ada Bothner appears as Teddy. The rest of the company are very evenly balanced and contains some very clever people. Seats on sale at Dick Bros drug store. The Use of Books. It is very remarkable and strange how absent minded some students are when reading library books. These books should be objects of general pride. Instead they are fingered and pencil-marked, even pen and ink marked, and the corners of the leaves turned down. The average student when reading a book, takes a delight in finding some particularly good passage, and is able to appreciate it without its being underscored, and the words defined in scrawling pencil marks. Many fine volumes have been rendered absolutely hideous and unsightly by these malpractices. Many of these volumes cannot be replaced at any reasonable price, and some of them not at all. Besides the passages marked are very often an index to the character of the culprit who made them, and in very many cases do not exhibit a particularly desirable one. Another use that books are put to sometimes is by hitting your best friend with them to let him know how much you love him. If you want to demonstrate your affection, use your hands and not a book.

ANOTHER ADDED TO OUR LIST $ Q^{T} $ VANQUISHED. The 'Varsity Defeated Warrensburg Last Saturday in An Easy Game. For the fifth consecutive time this year we can truly say "we have met the enemy and they are curs." Warrensburg like all the others proved unable to withstand the onslaught of our giants, and yet it was a pretty game. The game proved a boon to the Missouri Normal. They have been playing football under difficulties. Once a visiting team left the field on account of disagreements, and another time one of Warrensburg's men was slugged whereupon he obtained a club and returned the blow. And so the game broke up. Football was falling into disfavor, but when the Varsity went to Warrensburg 1,200 attested by their presence their willingness to give the Normal an opportunity to redeem itself, and the genuine football enthusiasm which now abounds in that city testifies to the satisfactory result. The gridiron is just north of the Normal buildings upon the Normal grounds and is s surrounded by shade trees. The day was an ideal one. It was such a game as the people of Warrensburg had never witnessed. The plays of the Varsity were so rapid that Warrensburg was hardly able to form the line. During the first half they seemed unable to offer any resistance whatever, but in the second they held us down to but one field goal against five touchdowns in the first half. The most notable feature of the game was Moulton's work at half. It is the first time he has played that position in a game of any consequence this year. He made two touchdowns and a number of good runs. Another feature was the splendid interference which the 'Varsity put up, and the absence of fumbling At 2.45 Kansas University entered the field, where Warrensburg had preceded them, and in a few minutes the game was on.

The Normal kicks off from the twenty-five yard line, twenty-five yards to Buzii who returns the ball ten yards. Mosse tries for field goal but the kick is blocked. By a series of end runs Warrensburg returns the ball to the center of the field. Then they try a quarterback kick under center for twenty yards gain. The ball rolls out of bounds. Owen, who is in the lead after it, not noticing the wire which is stretched around the side lines, turns a complete somersault and falls on the ball with his neck and shoulders. Buzzi makes twenty yards around left end. Moulton follows for twenty yards around right end, but is tacked hard and loses the ball. It is Warrensburg's ball on the thirty-five yard line. Wright makes ten yards on right end. Haller eight on left, Waltz ten on right tackle, Wright twenty yards around end, and Campbell seven yards. The ball is on Kansas' twenty yard line. By a score of line bucks the ball is advanced to Kansas' fifteen yard line and the 'Varenty braces up. Warrensburg loses the ball on downs. With fifteen minutes to play, Kansas by a rapid succession of line bucks and end runs advances the ball to Warrensburg's thirty yard line. Mosse kicks a field goal.

From the outlook at present and from the interest taken by the members of the various classes, it is safe to predict that a basket ball league will be formed among the classes. The Seniors have taken the initiative step by electing Mr. Sutton manager and regular, practice has been going on for the past two weeks. The Juniors have elected Fred Liscum to look after their interests. The Freshmen have also elected a man for the position and the Sophomores have a meeting called for next Tuesday for that purpose. Everything now depends upon the amount of support that is given to these managers by their classmens. Prominent members of the faculty who are interested in the success of basketball in the University have expressed their desire to challenge and play the winning team of the inter-class series. VOL. VII. NO.7. In regard to the new method of spelling chemical terms, which has been critisied somewhat in other departments, but which has been adopted by the chemical section of the 'American Association for the advancement of science, Professor Bailey has a letter from Dr. Edward Hart, the editor of the Journal of the Ameri- can Chemical Society, in which he says: "I think the new spelling is gaining steadily, and for such a change, rapidly I think authors are disposed to use it as fast as their readers will allow. Among recent converts are the Boker & Adamson Co., manufacturing chemists, whose labels are printed all now after the new system. I think we shall undoubtedly win because we are right." The method referred to is that which proposes the spelling; sulfur, chlorid, lodid, oxid, etc. New Mode of Spelling. Weaver is showing the finest line of new Black Crepons.

WE MUST ORGANIZE OUR ORATORICAL ASSOCIATION. The Time Is Approaching When Some Definite Action Must Be Taken— Meeting of Delegates to Choose Judge. It is not necessary for us to discuss the importance of an oratorical training while at college. Every sensible man admits the desirability of a faculty of ready expression of his thought and ideas. With the excellent work now being done in the elocutionary department of the University, there is every reason to expect a greater interest in oratorical work than has been manifested heretofore by the student body. This condition of affairs has been the desire of every friend of the University and is indeed a welcome change from the usual lethargy. The next State contest will doubtless be an exciting one, judging from the reports from the other colleges in the association. It will be held in Ottawa on the third Friday in February and Kansas University should send the winning orator. A meeting has been called at Ottawa for November $ _{14} $ for the purpose of selecting judges and accomplishing other preliminary work for that contest. Each association is entitled to one delegate. This delegate is supposed to go to that meeting fully instructed by his local association. In order that Kansas University may be properly represented the local association should hold a meeting at a very early date. A reorganization of the local body upon a broader basis would be a step in the right direction. Last year the attendance at the local contest was a magnificent expression of public interest in such entertainments. The expenses of that contest were paid by the contestants themselves which was the direct result of looseness of organization of the local association. While it may be all right in some schools for the orators to pay people to go and hear them, yet with the standard of excellence of the work of Kansas university's orators last year it would behove the local association to raise the necessary funds for the contest. It is wise to make the admission free at all contests. The funds can be raised from a slight membership fee, providing the association is organized upon a broad enough basis to make every student in the University eligible to membership. The Athletic association has a commendable organization and one that appeals to every patriotic student. It must be admitted that the Athletic association is not supported as it should be but we believe this is due not to a lack of patriotism and pride in our institution but to the fact that a great percentage of the student body is self-supporting and must of necessity be careful of expenditures. The Oratorical association will not require the amount of funds necessary to properly support the Athletic association and consequently the membership fee can be placed within the reach of every student. Eliminate the college politics from the work of the association, make its organization bread enough to reach every student. The constitution of the present organization can be strengthened in many places. The method of choosing contestants can be improved. Instead of selecting the best six orations in point of thought and composition, it would be wiser to select the contestants by a series of contests, allowing the winners to participate in the final contest for the selection of an orator to represent the University in the state contest Delivery is the prime requisite in the successful orator. This was proven at the last interstate contest. Our state representative ranked in thought and composition within a fraction of one per cent of winning first place, but his delivery lost for him and the state first honors. We know his oration was a magnificent effort in point of literary excellence, nor would I belittle this particular phase of oratorical work, yet it is to the man who can get hold of his audience and make them see as he sees, and feel as he feels, the victory belongs Not only would the best men be selected by this contest method but a greater interest and enthusiasm would be awakened by bringing a greater number of students in touch with the association. every member work toward the one end of sending the very best representative to the state contest and we shall not be ashamed of the record of the University of Kansas. Let us have a meeting next week. SNOW HALL NOTES. A skull of one of the large fossil lizards collected last summer, is showing some things in its structure that are new to science. Prof. E. Flaworth has recently had another large bookcase'built in his office, to accommodate volume III of the geological survey now in press. Mr. J. W. Beede, assistant in paleontology, has just returned from Nebraska City, Neb., where he has been collecting fossils for the last week. Mr. Syd Prence is now making the plates for the report upon fossil fishes, which will appear as a part of volume V, of the geological survey. The figures are far superior to any that have heretofore been made of these fishes. There is a large amount of new apparatus in the embryology room. The gymnasium and zoological laboratory have been oiled. This does away with the dust which has been very troublesome. The Biological club had a very enthusiastic meeting last Tuesday afternoon. The time of holding the club has been changed to Tuesday at 4 o'clock and will be held in room 7. It has been decided to have a series of papers in the club, giving the history of one of the sciences such as Botany, Entomology, etc. These papers will do doubt be very interesting and instructive. Professor McClung is using modeling clay to demonstrate the divisions of the egg in embryology. Professor Stevens lately received a letter from Mr. J. J. Gilbert of Plattsburg, Missourt. Mr. Gilbert has large classes and is doing will. He did graduate work here last year in paleontology. Professor Dyche left Friday to take a short lecture tour in western Kansas. The Physical Culture people have threatened to put a piano in the gymnasium. The Sigma Xi society will hold its next meeting in the Snow Hall lecture-room. The meeting will be public and all students are cordially invited. The program will consist of a discussion by a number of the faculty on the subject of the advancement of Science by American scientists. This meeting will be one of great importance and interest to all students, and especially so to those who are doing work in any of the sciences. It is for the purpose of setting forth a complete cosmos of what the American scientists have actually done in the advancement of science. The head of each department will take part in the discussion and it promises to be one of the most profitable and important scientific meetings of the year. It will be held on the evening of November 8, at 8 o'clock. The Biological club met Tuesday at its usual time, and Dr. Willston talked on the History of Anatomy. Tne Zendas. The Zenda dancing club has been organized by the young men of the young men of the University, and last night the inlay dance was given at Frazier hall. About thirty invitations were issued and that many couple were present. This club enjoys the distinction of being neither barb nor frat, and invitations are not issued with the "barb and fraat" dividing line. It was a delightful evening, and the crowd was very congenial. These circumstances in addition to the other requisite of a good dancing party, good music, were conducive to the enjoyment in which all had a share. The music of the evening was furnished by Mr. Curtis Osborne, piano, Mr. Buch, violin, and Mr. Bell, cornet. These three together form an orchestra which for dancing purposes is hard to excel. The Zendas will continue to give parties regularly about once a month during the winter. Have you a brother, sister or friend who will attend some private school this year? If so kindly mention the fact to V. D Craig, 1333 Kentucky, and that friend will be willing to give you a suitable reward.

Silver and Gold, the Colorado State University publication, has for its leader, Philip S. Elliott's "Liberty and Law." Mr. E. F. Shinn has been chosen by the senior class as manager of the Senior Class Annual. Mr. Shinn is thoroughly competent and highly interested in the success of the class. Under his management the annual is sure to be a good one. The Nebraskan speaks at some length of the remarkable扑unting of Captain Mosse, "if newspaper reports can be relied upon." They can. Why, Coach Woodruff said he had never seen his equal for field goals, even at Pennsylvania. A gentleman who lives in Washington was looking over the paleontological collections in the museum the other day. He expressed great surprise at the completeness of the collection and spoke many complimentary words for the University of Kansas. The first number of the lecture course was a success. The Louise M. Brehany Concert company was everything that was promised. The attendance however was small. Mr. Elliott promises that the remainder of the attractions will be as good and if they are he shall bear the distinction of choosing the best course ever offered in the University. There seems to be a general misunderstanding among the students in regard to the feeling which exists between Coach Woodruff and the team. After some impurities we learned that there is no ill feeling whatever. The team appreciates the coach's position as we would all do if we gave the matter due consideration. Mr. Woodruff is so deeply interested in the welfare of the team and its success, that often times, inexcusable errors make him impatient and in his hastiness be perhaps becomes unduly critical cat. But he feels and regrets his errors and is not slow to attempt to right them. Warrensburg, with its treatment of our team, has set us an example which we should not be slow to follow, and we will have an opportunity when Nebraska comes. The hatchet which was so much in evidence last fall, should be buried, and it is with us to do it. We can and ought to meet Nebraska at the train. The band too, ought to be there. Such a greeting would be much more effective in creating enthusiasm than a mass meeting. The Nebraskans would appreciate a reception, and the beaming account which they would give of their treatment upon arriving home would be to us a landable revenge.

Mr. James Harding was in town for a short time this week. Mr. Harding is an old University student, a member of Sigma Chi and Theta Nu Epsilon fraternities. He is now in the offices of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St Paul road. Just at present University society is living on the prospect of the gaites that will attend the big football game next week. As is usual at that time a large number of out of town people will be here and society will be very gay in honor of its guests. Miss Ota Nicholson was on the hill one day this week. Of course the game itself will be the principal feature of the festivities, while scarcely secondary are the dinners, dances and informal parties which will occur on the nights preceding and following the game. But the game! That is the time when society will put on its sweetest smile and its new fall clothes and sally forth in full feather. The largest event of the week in town society was the whist party given by Mr. and Mrs. Gord n Gibb. This is the first of several parties which Mr. and Mrs. Gibb will give during the early season. Their guests on this occasion were the members of the younger fraternity cr owd. The presentation of Hoyt's "Bunch of Keys" at the opera house last Monday night was made quite a society event. The Phi Gams had a line party consisting of Messrs Ritz, Cloyes, Beck, Cochran, Poehler, McKnight, Hamilton, Williams, Osborn and Wycliff. The Betas who sat together were: Mesars Parent, Leonard, Bliss, Carroll, Bradford, Cross and Adams. The Sigma Chis took time by the forelock and engaged Donnelly's tallyho something over a year ago. This one vehicle, however, is not large enough for their chapter so part of them will go in Donnelly's new rubber tired carriage. The Kappas will occupy prettily decorated carriages. The Thetas and Pi Phi will sit together on the north bleachers. They have reserved forty seats for their party. These are but a few of the numerous parties who will be seen on McCook field next Saturday afternoon. At the Y, W, C. A. reception last week a Lawrence girl was talking to two delegates from a neighboring college. A young man approached and asked the Lawrence girl to have some punch she accepted and left the two visiting girls alone. They looked at each other in righteous amazement. "Punch!!!" said one in a horrified whisper. "Lets go home," said the other and they went. The Zendas are a crowd of non-fraternity men who will give a series of hops during the season. The first of these was given last night in Frazier hall, and was a most auspicious opening. Music was by Buch. The members of the club are Messrs Osborne, Rose, Alexander, W. L. Kelley, Lindas, Duer, Taylor, Alexander, E. W. Kelly, Swayze and Buzzi.

One of the clever new things, theatrical, of the past season was the "filled-with-fun-fun" operatic comedy called "The Gay Matinee Girl" which good naturedly ridicules the "Matinee Girl" fad while yet, as Edwin P. Hilton, its exploiter, says, it also treated the "dear, delightful creature" most tenderly, interestingly, musically and withal very funnily. There seems plenty of opportunity to build around such a pleasing subject a most entertaining comedy, which many prominent critics declare has been done. Mr. Hilton has managed some of the best of our better known spectaculars and dramas, and he promises that the entire production, comedy, company, wardrobe, scenery, etc., is wonderfully improved and will introduce those favorite commedians, Monroe and Hart, as the stars, with America's best soubrette.

Her interpretation of a selection shows close study and a very fine appreciation. At the last meeting of the honorary fraternity of the Sigma Xi, it was decided to depart from the usual custom of holding all their meetings in secret and give one meeting for the public. This meeting will be more of a symposium, the object being to discuss and read papers upon "What America Has Done for Science." The heads of the various departments will read short papers upon the work of American scientists intimately connected with the various lines of work. Notwithstanding the ill feeling the freshmen election caused among several members of the class they all came together harmoniously last Friday evening and decided to pull together during the rest of the year. No distinction apparently was made between "frats" and "barbs" in the president's appointments of committees as both elements are well represented. Various plans are in mind which if carried out will bring the class into distinction early in its existence. The athletic board met Tuesday and elected the following officers: J W.

Recipe for raising a "rough house."—Call several boys together and suggest going over to——"s room and raising a rough house. All start out—one or two giving an Indian war-heop to work up enthusiasm for the project. Arriving at the destination, tear down the door for it saves the useless formality of knocking. Immediately upon entering, if the occupant of the room does not seem to be fully aware of your presence, pull his chair out from under him, throw his books at him and knock over all his furniture. If your host offers any resistance throw him out without further ceremony. Pile everything up in the middle of the room and give a final yell take your leave first, or course, making sure that your victim is still in a dazed condition.—From Johnson's Encyclopedia. In some casee whist seems to be a game of protracted interest which lasts even until breakfast time. "Where ignorance is bliss 'tis folly to be wise." One of the professors in the school has the happy custom of greeting the students returning from their summer vacations with a long drawn out "How do you do, how do you do" and emphasizes it with a hearty handshake. At his boarding place the several boarders adopted his style. On being asked one day by a visitor if the greeting was quoted, the boarders very much frightened, declared it was not, whereupon the professor said, "Oh yes it, is it a favorite saying of another professor." And still they laugh at him. Whom are you going to the dance with? asked one of three girls who were talking together in the Woman's league room. "With Mr. ___" "Why he asked me," and "me told," said the other girl, and the first girl is still meditating on the inconsistency of man. The lights of Mt. Oread - red headed students. One of the members of the American literature class is contending that Mrs. Rip Van Winkle was as shiftless as her husband for she might have made Rip's galligansins over for her children. Avery, who plays the left end on the team, fumbled his umbrella in coming up the hill the other day. Perhaps it was an accident, or maybe it was second nature that he fell on it and yelled "down." There is a girl in school here, who, it seems to us is a little inconsistent. Last year she was a "steady" who spent lavishly on her the substance received from his parental ancestor, and for educational purposes, laid awake of nights thinking of how he could best make this life for her one unbroken monotone of joyous song. At the breaking out of the Hespano-American war, being stirred by a patriotic impulse and love of country, he shouldered his gun and marched bravely out to war and hasn't been able to get back since. The girl has found another "steady" and is working him the same way. Instead of being in sack-cloth and ashes she wears the same enchanting smile. We knew it wouldn't go to go to war. There is a fellow in our class who snaps his fingers when he wants to ask a question On an adjoining lot to our domicile liyes a young lady who had a beautiful spotted kitten. On either side, less than a block away, live Frep Medics. The cat is missing and the presumption is great. During the late blizzard a Pharmic told us he acquired four umbrellas and seven pairs of rubbers. Get "Shorty" Hamill to tell you how the people and especially the young ladies of Wärrensburg "showed" our football boys a good time. "Shorty" states that their reception was his idea of a good time. In Missouri they always "Show em", you know. Growth of the Y. M.C.A The University, Y. M. C. A. has been growing steadily since its foundation. Especially flattering is its growth this year. Young men are beginning to realize that this organization is a fine thing and ought to be pushed along. This year the association has been fortunate in receiving a great many new members and among them are many old students, which is very gratifying. The increased attendance at the Sunday afternoon meetings is good evidence of its growth. These meetings are interesting in that the speakers are always interesting. The association is planning to give a large reception next week in honor of the new members. Fine fleece lined underwear and negligee shirts. THE BOSTON, 738 Massachusetts street. An immense line of Fall Hats at prices that defy Competition at M. J. Skofstad, 824 Massachusetts street. A Great Opportunity. The extent to which the professions are crowded at the present day is very discouraging to even the persevering and energetic student. Few lines of work seem to offer very great inducements when thousands are struggling at the same time toward the same end. Yet there is always a place for the right man and the University now offers to some students opportunities such as no other school can offer and promises him fame in return for his labors. It is not generally known throughout the University how rich the institution is in material for the study of Paleo Botany. The science department possess five of the largest and most complete fossil collections on this side of the Atlantic. An eminent eastern paleontologist who came to K. U. recently, pronounced the collection of carbonifero to be without doubt the best in America. The collection of the upper cretaceous plants is with but one exception the most complete on the continent. Besides this there are exceptionally fine collections of tertiary plants. Much of this material is entirely new to science and has never been roughly examined and so offers a most inviting field for original researches for advanced students. Professor Williston is anxious to have more advanced students of Botany take up the study of these collections or some of them for original work. This is especially true in the study of the carboniferous plants on which science, up to this time, is especially ignorant. All the literature bearing on the subject is either in the library or will be procured when first called for. The excellent facilities for all preparatory work in Botany is too well known to go into detail. With such opportunities opened up before him, with the excellent corps of teachers who will gladly do all in their power to encourage and help him, this course certainly offers a bright future for whosoever desires to pursue it. Now let the other great universities of America talk. Kansas university has scored another point, and invites the others to take their seats along the side line. Students as well as others wanting coal, will find A.J. Griffin's the most convenient and best place to trade. His prices are the lowest, coal the best, and delivery is prompt and satisfactory. C. L.

Yale's center of last year, is at the University of California this year. The average cost of fitting out a player on a 'Varsity eleven' is about $40. The Carlsle Indians netted $20,000 as a result of their football season of 1897. The students of Georgetown university have been permitted by the faculty to have a football team this fall, for the first time since the year 1894, when their quarterback was fatally injured. At Pennsylvania the members of the last year's 'Varsity baseball team have been awarded gold cuff buttons as souvenirs, and the "subs" silver ones. The design is two crossed bats and a ball. Everts Wrenn, of tennis fame, has been asked to officiate in the Minnesota-Northwestern game of November 12 in Minneapolis. He was one of the officials of the Minnesota-Wisconsin game of two years ago and handled the teams splendidly. The old athletic association of the University of Nebraska has been dissolved, and now athletes in that institution have been put on a sound financial basis.

The interesting part of the program on last Saturday was the debate. The question was: "Resolved that it would be to the best interests of the United States that the government should own and control the railroads." The speakers for the affirmative were C. J. Hineman and [no. Deolin, and for the negative were H. H. Tangman and W. H. Silvers. Much interest was taken in the general discussion which followed the debate proper, showing that the question was a live one of the day. At the business meeting it was decided to make "parliamentary drill" a regular part of the program. It is proposed to outline the work in the RulesOfOrder and take a special part of parliamentary practice for every evening's study and practice. It is to be so arranged that every member shall receive some drill in presiding over a meeting. This will make it very beneficial to all who take a part.
