ANOTHER VICTORY.
THE 'VARSITY BASKET BALL TEAM
WON FROM THE INDIANS BY A
SCORE OF 14 TO 5.
THE FEATURES OF THE GAME
Were Avery's Goal Throwing, Yahh's Interferences and the Varsity Team Work. -Fallis the Indian Star.
Friday evening at the Y. M. C. A. rooms down town, the basket ball season was opened in Lawrence by a good game between the Varsity team and the Indians. The game was a good one considering that the men have had only slight training. It was unusually free from rough play, was an appy and exciting throughout, and interested the spectators.
The 'Varsity showed a little better team work than the Indians. Neither side was sure of its goals, but the 'Varsity was a little more successful than the Indians. The passing of both teams was about equal. Had the Indians been able to throw goals the score would have been somewhat closer. There were no men on either team who wanted to play the whole game, but all depended on team work.
For the Indians. Fallis and Preyer showed up best, although they all played a fast game. Both these men and also Archiqueste are football men. They are alert and will certainly play a wonderful game before the season of the season.
Avery did the sensational work for the Varsity. Two of his goals were extraordinary and deserved the applause they received. The Owens boys are improving and will soon be in their old form, while Shipman and Vandurf are already playing well. Yahn, as usual was everywhere, and read the

ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT NOTES.
Owing to the desire on the part of several to take shop work, a class in Freshman show work will be organized. There will be twelve at least in the class.
The instructors in the shops are more rushed than ever before, partly owing to the increased enrollment and partly owing to the increase in classes.
Dr. A. F. Nightingale, of the public schools of Chicago, is advocating the abolition of graduations in high schools. He recommends the substitution of a plan by which the pupils would choose the subjects they like best, spend about 3,000 hours mastering them and then quietly quit work. He said: "The old custom of going through a regular grind and then graduating in the presence of admiring relatives and friends, in my opinion, has served its day. Let us have a system that will give pupils a thorough training in such studies as they may select and drop this annual 'sailing out upon the ocean of life.' Let the pupils start in when they can and leave when they finish the course without orations or essays."
E. E. Trueblood, an engineer of 97, who has been in the territory in the employ of the Santa Fe, was on the hill Thursday morning.
Prof. Marvin reports fewer double-flunks in the engineering school than ever before.
Several University young men and womefl participated in the reception given by the city M. A. A., to the visiting Iola bowlers Wednesday night.

Why Young Men Fall.
when a young man starts out to learn a business or profession, I believe that natural born conceit is his most dangerous enemy. This is generally apparent when he begins to get an insight into things, but as soon as he has come to understand that what he knows is possibly only the rudiments of the business or profession which he is studying, he will begin to learn something, provided he is ambitious.
After he has become master of his occupation, the next enemy to contend with is flattery. If he is a reasonably bright young fellow he may likely receive many praises; some will be sincere, but many otherwise. In any event, they are more or less intoxicating, and no young man should become elated or feel, that he has reached the top of the ladder because of favorable comments which he may receive from time to time. Susceptibility to flattery has checked many a young man's career.
Men with natural ability are usually lacking in the required ambition for study and work, and it is often that we see a more industrious person push ahead of one thus endowed. A young man should not become bigoted or conceived by reason of his natural abilities, as these are the gifts of God, and for this reason alore he should not allow them to lie dormant or talf cultivated.
At this progressive age no one reaches a point at which he can abandon study and live on his past reputation. A good reputation is difficult to build up, yet it is easy to lose, and I believe that a business or a professional man who expects to make life a continual success should start out with the determination of becoming a student for life. Of course, as one becomes eminently successful he does not have the same amount of time to devote that the young man would, but study becomes easier as one advances in life and finds its necessity.
Another cause of failure for which the young man is not altogether to blame is the strained social conditions (of the present era. This is especially so in the professions, where unfortunately, one's best chance of making business friends and acquaintances is by being here there and everywhere as society may command. One loses needed rest in this way and much genuine home life, which after all is to be preferred to what is ordinarily termed society. I believe that a young man should come in contact with people socially, but he had much better proceed a little slower and get the needed daily rest than undermine his health by constantly attending social functions.
The importance of strict punctuality and integrity is not understood by the average young man. If he could only reverse his position and become employer for a few months he would readily understand its value.
When a young man is locking for a position he should not seek the one which will at first offer him the best sa'ary, but should choose an occupation to which he would be willing to devote his entire life, and then work his way up, accepting what he is offered. There is nothing gained by jumping from one thing to another and working a few months here and there.
If a young man is punctual and is strictly honest he will soon win the esteem of his employer. He should be absolutely exact in the smallest things, for it is the small errors which most often come to the notice of an employer, and it is reasonable to assume that if an employee would be
dishonest or irregular in a small matter he would not hesitate at a more grave offense where the chances of not being detected might offer themselves.—Hertzert C, Chivers in Saturday Evening Post.

LAWRENCE, KAN., FEB. 3., 1900.
As our readers have probably noticed this week's issue of the WEEKLY comes out under a new management. We assume control of the paper with the best interests of the WEEKLY at heart. We shall endeavor to make the WEEKLY a worthy representation of Kansas University and in this we ask the heavy co-operation of every student of the school. We are not editing this paper for the money there is it but to keep Kansas University before the public. We want to see that the official paper of our institution compares favorably with those of other schools and we can surely do this when every student takes it upon himself to help us along. If any one has an item that is interesting to the readers of the WEEKLY, do not hesitate to give it to some member of the board. In this way you will help your school and will also receive the everlasting blessings of the editors for the editorial path is not strenued with roses. If you appreciate our effort in trying to give Kansas University the best paper possible, show your appreciation by giving up your support, financially and otherwise but don't come to us with your troubles. We have quite a surplus on hand now Tell your troubles to a policeman if you can find one in Lawrence that is what he is paid for. Aga! let us impress upon the students the need of hearty co-operation in order to give Kansas university a good paper. Cut this out and paste it in your hat or put it between the beaves of your bible where you will see it often. The student certainly owe a debt of gratitude to the retiring management and especially t Frank Post the editor-in-chief who has done so much to give Kansas Universi a first class paper. He has put in great deal of his time for the good of the paper and certainly deserves a greet deal of credit.
Some one was cruel enough to suggest that the recent series of burglaries and hold-ups was a hoax to keep the students at home with their books at night, just before the term examination. We dismiss such an insinuation without consideration, but even if there is any truth in the report, it seems to have had the desired effect, because we have not missed any familiar faces from school. However, if any one of the readers of the WEEKLY want the address of their paper changed, we shall do so and ask no questions.
There are a good many new faces on the hill this term and several old scholars have returned to resume their studies after being out of school for a while.
The basket ball season opened last week and the team started out with flying colors. This institution has a good
strong team this year that is sure to be a winner, and every one who can should turn out to these games and help the boys. Basket ball became a very popular game last year and the same interest ought to be taken in the games this season. The season opens a little late this year but since the rink burned down last year the basket ball boys have had no place to practise until the new, Y, M, C. A. building was fitted up. Since then they have been working hard, and have made a great deal of improvement.
The Y. M. C, A. team of Topeka, will play here February 9. The Topeka team is a strong one, and a good game is promised. A large crowd should be out to the game.
The term examinations are over and it is with a deep feeling of relief that the students settle down to their ordinary work again.
Prof. G. B Penny, dean of the school of fine arts of Kansas university, sailed from Boston today on a combined lecture. study and pleasure trip abcread. He has been engaged by the managers of a nine weeks cruise to the Mediterranean and the Orient to deliver a series of stereopticon lectures en route on Greek act-Roman architecture. He will also be one of the three directors of the tour, and as such will have charge of the Egyptian section.
The cruise will be made by a party of 400 eastern tourists, chiefly New York and Massachusetts educators. The itinerary includes the principal points of interest in Egypt, Falestine, Greece and Italy. This will be Prof. Penny's second visit to the orient for the purpose of studying the history of art, and he goes prepared to take a large number of photographs for his department.
The second term of the year opens at the Kansas State University with 1,002 students. The Missouri State University, including the School of Mines at Rolla, must be a good second. It would look better though if there were more than a thousand students at Columbia. The difference ought not to be in favor of the newer state.—K.C. Star.

The committee on legal education recommended legislative appropriation for more books for the law school library.

J. C. Gunby, Junior Medic, has been compelled to withdraw from his classes. He has been confined to his room with malarial fever for the past two weeks.
A High School graduate of last week comes to the University with this advance notice of his football career. A box of roses was brought in to the class president who managed to play the star game of football during the season and to keep up his studies on the side and graduate with honors. Long stemmed roses for a football hero! He know how to carry the pig skin down the field amid the shouts of hundreds of spectators, but how to march on to the platform before a sea of faces, carrying a bunch of American Beauties, was too much of a task for him.

AMUSEMENTS
One of the clearest combinations touring this season has been secured as the attraction $a$ in the Opera House Tuesday, February 6. The company referred to is headed by Miss Marie Lamour, heretofore a prominent and attractive member of Augustin Daly's New York company. The play through which Miss Lamour will be introduced to our theatre goers is Wilfred Clarke's great London success, "A Wise Woman" Miss Lamour and her clever company have been afforded the highest praise everywhere they have appeared and it is claimed for them that they take a high position among the standard metropolitan attractions of the day. Frederic Murphy, whose splendid talents are well known to many patrons of the drama, and who last season occupied the important position of leading man for Julia Marlowe, has been engaged to appear in the same capacity with Miss Lamour's organization. The balance of the supporting company are said to be of an equally high order of merit. Mr. Clarke who did the staging of his comed y whent it was put on the Strand The剧院 in London, where it ran for 238 nights, has looked after this important detail for Miss Lamour.
Alfred Harmsworth, editor of the famous London Daily Wail who has made $4,000,000 in journalism says in a personal interview: "Do smarter men than I fail? Yes indeed. And there are many reasons why they do o. The principal ones is drink. I am a tetotaler, though not a bigot nor a fanatic. I do not think that drink is a good thing for a business man, as it makes him stupid and clogs his brain."
Drink Does It.
Mr. Clark returns to Lawrence next Thursday night with the same hymn book and playing card selling "Jones," whose difficulties and trials are numerous but who extracts himself from the mass of entanglement with the ease and urbanity of the true knight of the grip. Mr. Clarke will be seen at the Bowersock opera house Thursday, February 8th.
Look at the samples of new self-toning paper, autotone, at Raymond's; 24 sheets $ \mathbf{4 x 5} $ for 20c.
Last season Harry Carson Clarke was seen in Lawrence in the happy role of "Jones" in "What Happened to Jones," for the first time and was accorded an ovation by those who were fortunate enough to be present.

The bill introduced by Representative Miller in the house of representatives giving the Fort Hays military reservation to the state of Kansas for educational purposes, was before the house this week but was not acted upon. This bill passed both houses of the legislature in the fifty-third congress, but failed to receive the president's signature and last session it passed the senate again. When the Indians were moved from western Kansas to the Indian Territory, the Fort Hays reservation, comprising about 7,000 acres of land, was abandoned. The land is not worth much as it is today, but by means of irrigation it can be made very productive. To turn it over to the state for educational purposes seems to be the best use which could be made of it and it certainly ought to be utilized some way. Our Agriculture college which is the largest in the United States is now over crowded and it is proposed to establish a branch college upon this reservation. It is also proposed to erect another state normal school on the land, which would certainly be a good measure. Kansas has paid a great deal of attention to her state institutions of learning and she has been well repaid. It is hoped that this bill will become a law during this session of congress.

The faculty and students of the Pharmacy and Medical schools accepted the invitation of the pharmaceutical manufacturing firm of Ely Lilly & Co. to spend Friday in Kansas City as their guests. They went down on the early morning Santa Fe train and spent the morning at the Fowler Packing Company's plant and Peet Bros. soap factory. Dinner was served for them at the Coates House. The afternoon was spent in the scientific examinations of plant analysis and the products of the pharmaceutical laboratory of Lilly & Co. A microscopic exhibit was also arranged for their entertainment. The hosts were most generous and their hospitality will not soon be forgotten.

Shakespeare, illustrative production, execution and interpretation, the lecture being illustrated with songs by Mr. Shakespeare in his own unimitable style. To emphasize the beauty of both Mr. Shakespeare's voice and art, is not necessary to go any further than to quote from a letter to Johannes Brahms, written shortly before his death, in which he says, "It is the most musical singing which I have ever heard." Mr. Shakespeare will devote a limited number of hours coaching advanced pupils and professional singers at twenty-five dollars per hour.

KANSAS AND KANSANS.
Rev Chas. M. Sheldon of Topeka, the author of the famous book "In His Steps," is to show the people what a daily newspaper should do according to his ideas. He is to assume editorial and business control of the Topeka Daily Capital for the week beginning March 13, and will give us a daily newspapers in accordance with the ideas of his famous book. Ed Howe of the Atchison Champion suggests that to even things up, Editor Hudson of the capital be allowed to fill Rev. Sheldon's pupit that week, but so far we have not heard of Hudson accepting the proposition. The Capital, as issue by Rev. Sheldon, will be watched with interest.
The candidacy of Hon. J Ralph Burton for the republican nomination for United States Senator, is just now attracting a great deal of interest in political circles. Mr. Burton is a great friend of the young men, and his ability is unquestioned. In conversation with us a few months ago, he stated that he got his first lesson in politics at the State University in the east where he attended school, and that the experience he got in that way has been serviceable to him to this day.
Lawrence is not the only town in Kansas that is being troubled with burglarars and footpads. It seems that Wichita is suffering from an epidemic of woman footpads. The local papers refer to them as skirt pads which is probably in good form.
Herbert B. Stimpson, a young lawyer of Wichita, has been knighted by King Humbert of Italy upon the recommendation of the minister of public instruction and other distinguished men of that kingdom. His official title is now knight of the order of the crown of Italy. It is believed that he is the only American possessing such an honor, as the order is usually conferred only upon citizens of the kingdom of Italy.
This is the third decoration confered upon Mr Stimpson, although he is but 30 years of age. For blowing up the walls of Dahomey and services rendered the French republic in three African wars he has received the military medal of France, and for saving the lives of eleven persons during the disastrous charity bazaar fire in Paris in 1896 he was given the grand cross of the legion of honor. The Italian honors were bestowed upon him for various services to Italy, principally among scientific lines. The immediate cause of it was a service he had rendered Major General Rocchi in the shape of a suggestion, which was invaluable in the general's operations in Abyssynia.
Dr. Bessels died a dozen years ago and left his family with practically nothing but
Mr. Stimpson is the step-son of the cal-
ebrated scientist, the late Dr. Bessels, wno
for thirty years was the secretary of the
Smithsonian institute at Washington.

the legacy of a grand scientific reputation-Mr. Stimpson after graduating from the law department of the University of Virginia, went to the University of Paris with practically no resourses. Being hard up one day he joined the "foreign legion" of the French army as a second class private and became first sergeant. He was the best educated man of the regiment and understood the sciences. Volunteers were called before the walls of Dahomy to place a dynamite cartridge in a mine, and Stimpson was the first to offer himself. In the destruction of the walls he received several wounds and barely escaped with his life. The French military medal is given only for twenty continuous years of service, but an exception was made in the case of Mr. Stimpson in appreciation of his bravery at the siege of Dahomy. He also served in the operations south of Morocco and in Timbutocto.
When the Americans and Spanish threatened war, Stimpson hurried across the water. He arrived on a Saturday afternoon, and the following Monday morning had secured a commission in the department of engineering and science. It was he who managed and ascended in the balloons of observation at the battle of Santiago and made a distinguished record at that time, as well as afterward, in removing explosives from the harbor. Prof. Lambroso's most recent book was dedicated to him.
A queer gegius this same Mr. Stimpson. He has a wonderful record, but it is next to impossible to get him to talk about it. He is a wonderful student of criminology, and that is why he is pursuing the law. He has a small, bare little office in Wichita, and has no general acquaintance except among persons whose minds lean to literary, scientific and philosophic thought. He is a doctor of law and a doctor of philosophy. He is undoubtedly the most intellectual man in Kansas, and, as a matter of course, is considered a crank by the vulgar herd.
It is announced that Miss Louise Evelyn Lease, daughter of the well known speaker and reformer, Mary Ellen Lease, has gone to New York and will prepare herself for the lecture platform. Miss Lease is quite gifted at that line and has already delivered several lectures on reform topics. She has entered school in New York and after she graduates, she expects to do some newspaper work for a year or two before going on the platform. She is following in the foot steps of her mother.

President Tucker of Dartmouth has announced that the Amos Tuck school of administration and finance has been established under the conditions of the $300,000 fund given by Edward Tuck of the class of '62, as a memorial to his father. He stated that the object of this new and novel school was to train college graduates whether they enter the profession or not, in the principles which underlie the management of private and public business and so far as practicable in the methods of administration.
The school will be open to those who present bachelors' degrees, but special students are to be taken for particular courses. The school will open at the beginning of the next academic year, September 13.

The tazy*student thinks he is beating his teachers. Not so. He is beating himself. The joke is all on him. He takes his punishment in the self-inflicted loss o' the opportunity to secure an education. Such opportunity in the nature of the case can come to the vast majority only once. Advancing years bring other cares. The mind, the character, mature and harden. The season of susceptibility to new impressions, and especially of capacity for development, goes by, never to be repeated, never to return. The man settles into form for life. No after cultivation, even if possible, can expand him. The lazy student is a stunted growth. His habits unfit him for place or service in the busy world. He is unequipped with useful knowledge and has no facility of the little he can-not help knowing. He is undisciplined, undeveloped, uncultured, unskilled in every line. He has lost his opportunity for an education. The appropriate result ensues. He has to take his place and live his life with the influence and emolument of the uneducated. He is not and never can be all he might have been. But he does not care. If he did he would not be lazy. No, he does not care. And admonition is neglected if not scoffed at. Is it not a misplaced sympathy which grieves at his richly deserved and self-inflicted punishm nt?—Purple and Gold.
The program for the Kansas university oratorical contest Thursday night is completed. The order of the speakers with their subjects is as follows:
"Who Has Sinned?" C. E. Carpenter.'
"Bismarck," W. S. Hyatt.
"Municipal Reform," Franklin Baker.
"Patrick Henry," F. A. Burton.
"Supremacy of the People," C. W. Meyer.
The program will be interspersed with appropriate music. The orations have already been passed on by the heads of the English department who act as judges on thought and composition.

The reason why so many fail to secure or

INTERESTING STORY OF HOW MAN- AGER COPLEY'S GLEE CLUB SAVED A CHURCH AT PEA- BODY ON THEIR RE- CENT TOUR.
While it is not generally known among the students of Kansas university, it is a fact that they have in their midst a band of as bavage and successful fire fighters as there are in the state. They are no others than the members of the Glee Club. Besides a considerable amount of fire fighting that has won everlasting fame for them in the city of Peabody. The club played there the second night out. It was Christmas Eve and that fact taken with the inclementy of the weather and the impassable condition of the roads caused the boys to have a very small house. They felt that they had done very little to establish themselves in the good graces of Peabody people. But their opportunity was yet to come. After the concert the boys returned to the Palisade hotel and there, as was their custom sat about talking over the evening's work. Suddenly from without there came that dreadful cry of "fire," The boys sprang to the door, to hear some one crying from across the street that the church was on fire.
IT HAPPENED CRUISTMAS EVE.
People of That Town Very Grateful to the Glee Club Boys.
It should be stated that the Presbyteri n church was situated diagonally across the street, and it was this which was on fire, as light from the other side of the church gave evidence.
Over The Hu
800 Mass, St.
"Telephone the fire department," yelled one of the boys, as the crowd of them took for the other side of the street. Running in, one of them rang up central, or tried to do so. After two or three futile attempts, scme one briefly answered 'Well, what's wanted?'
"The church is on fire."
"Is that sc?" was the laconic reply.
"Why the Presbyterian church. It'll burn down before they get started if you don't hurry."
'Well maybe you'd better tell me what church is on fire.'
"All right, ring off."
"If theres the fire station."
Meanwhile the boys had broken into the church only to be driven back by the terrible volume of smoke that came pouring out. Nothing daunted, [three or four made a rush forward and with a bravery that should have the highest praise, ran up the aisle to where back of the pulpit a Christmas tree with all the trimming was on fire. On the floor was an exploded lamp and the fire was fast working its way up to the ceiling, making rapid headway on the dry woodwork. The first act of the boys was to seize, as best they could, the tree and trimmings and carry them from the church. Another seized the burning lamp and with great courage carried it to the door and threw it into the street.
This done, general cry for water was sent up. Several of the boys were already at the hotel trying to get a bucket of water but, not until the hotel keeper in his night robe, appeared on the scene could one be secured. Underneath the hydrant outside stuck a large candy bucket; filling this to the brm, two of the boys seized it and started on a run straight across the street avoiding all crossings although the mud was a good six inches deep and not very stiff mud either. On entering the church the sight that met their eyes was as amusing as it was terrifying. Standing one on the altar and the other on the pulpit, were two of the boys, yelling for water, while several others were darting about seizing all the hymn books and bibles they could find and firing them out at the windows, in the alcove back of the pulpit, around which the blaze had centered. The boys with the water hoisted to the one on the organ, which was nearer the fire than the organ, and he tried to throw the contents at the burning window, as a result he almost lost his equilibrium and the pail of water as well. Fortunately another boy was on the scene by this time with a smaller pail, a slop pail from the kitchen we learned the next moring, when its contents were seen spathed over the walls
and floor. However, it served its purpose as water could be easily dashed with it up into the burning window. A second full pool of water completed the work and the foe was out. Then in the same instant the boys, proud as could be of their wonderful feat set up a grand Rock Chalk that shook the rafters of the sacred house. Owing to the lateness of the hour the boys had the whole thing to themselves and it was only as they welled out of the front door of the church that the crowd began to arrive. Down the street several blocks could be heard the 'tinkle tinkle' of the hose cart stuck in the mud so deep, that had the church depended on its service to be saved, it would have been burned down and the ashes grown cold before it arrived.
The next morning the preacher of the church and a delegation of citizens called on the boys and publicly thanked them for their fine work. Money was offered for the damage done to the boys' clothes but none was accepted
Besides establishing a fine reputation for themselfs, the boys by their act,gave Peabody a new idea of what a college w. s. and doubtless raised K. U,very materially in their estimation.
The Youngest Woman to Hold That Re-
DEAN ANNA BOWEN DEAD
Miss Anna Maud Bowen, dean of Woman's hall, Northwestern University, at Evanston, Ill., is dead.
She was born in Chicago on December 27, 1872. She was graduated from Northwestern University in 1894. The next two years she spent as a fellow at Cornell, and led in her class while there. At the end of two years the degree Ph.D. was conferred on her. She spent two years studying at Leipzig and Munich. At Leipshe she was the first woman to obtain full privileges at the seminar. At Munich she also gained prominent mention.
In 1895 she accepted a place as editorial writer on the Nation.
In June, 1899, she was elected dean of Woman's hall at Northwestern, and immediately went to Paris to spend a few months before entering upon the duties of her new place. She was the youngest woman in the country to hold so responsible a place.
Must Be Vaccinated.
The following notice, signed by Chancellor Snow, was posted Monday morning: "Owing to the near approach of smallpox to the vicinity of the University, it is deemed advisable that all students should, without delay, see their physicians and become vaccinated. Such as have not been vaccinated elsewhere within the last five years, may be accommodated upon application to the treasurer's office from 2 to 5 p.m."
It caused considerable excitement among the students and many took advantage of the opportunity to be vaccinated. Dr. S. W. Willisten, assisted by the Medics, have vaccinated several hundred students this week. The direct cause for the bulletin and the conservation, was a yellow flag displayed in the midst of the student resident quarter in the 1300 block on Tennessee street, last Saturday. Nothing serious is anticipated from this close approach of the disease to the University, but every precaution is being taken to keep it out. The city authorities provided for a stricter quarantine, Tuesday night and arrangements have been made to isolate any students who may be attacked.
The students at the Missouri state university have presented a resolution to the faculty asking that the system of semiannual examinations be abolished. Among the reasons given for doing this are that it means a severe strain on the students and leads to cramming and cheating. The petition states that a students final grade on a subject should be based on his class record for the entire term, and that examinations at intervals should be given instead of at the end of the term.
Emporia College is losing some of her best professors on account of the new library that Carnegie is going to build there. The old debt has to be paid, according to the conditions of Carnegie's gift, before they can realize on his money, and to do it they are cutting down the salaries of the whole faculty with the result that several of them are resigning to accept positions elsewhere.

the Indians who played a fast game.
For the Indians Valley and Fallis played a good game. The Indians have made a great improvement since the last game and encouraged by the applause of their ad mirers gave the 'Varsity a hard fight.
The first half ended 6 to 3 in favor of Haskell and it was not until nearly the end of the second half that the 'Varsity came to the front. For the University it would be difficult to say who played the ster game.
The final success of the Varsity was large'y due to the goal throwing of F. Owens, assisted by Avery's usual strong eame.

The following tribute to Kansas from the pen of Tom McNeal the well known editor of the Topeka Mail and Breeze furnishes agrest deal of valuable material for consideration.
Whatever you may think of her political conduct; whether you wear the sackcloth of the defeated, or snort with the exultant snort of the victor, the unalterable fact remains that Kansas is still the geographical center of the world—the linch-pin of the universe.
Even the fact that more people are at this time engaged either in abusing her or defending her shows that she is built to attract attention and invite contention. The ordinary, common place things of the world do not attract attention; only the things of value invite contention.
Kansas will in the future, as she bas in the past, overcome more difficulties, create more surprises, and make more material advancement in a given time than any other state in the Union.
Kansas is the only state that ever grew enough wheat in one season to furnish bread for more than one week for every man, woman and child on the face of the globe from Orient to Occident, and from Greenland's ice mountains to India's coral strand. She is the only state that, on a pinch, can raise the products of the frigid, temperate and terrid zones. She is the only state that within twenty-four hours can furnish climate suited to the taste of the ice-man from Iceland, the Pole from Poland, the Hol from Holland, or the tropical savage from Borneo in his untiming suit of sunshine.
Kansas is the only state that can mix in the cenere of every clime, and where a hot wind will affect the markets of Christendom. Within the last ten years the state has raised sufficient corn to fatten enough cattle to drink up the waters of Lake Superior, and enough hogs to furnish ham and gravy sufficient to float the United States navy. She has enough natural gas to supply the furnaces of civilization, and enough salt to make pickling brine out of all the fresh waters of the globe.
The heads of Kansas people, taken as a whole, carry a larger stock of brains than the same number of heads in any other state in the Union.
The people of Kansas read more papers, buy more books in proportion to their means, think more and can talk better on the average than the citizens of any other commonwealth. Every theory finds able advocates, and the Kansas man defending an error can generally out-talk a citizen of some other state who may be expounding correct doctrine.
Keep your eye on Kansas and don't be discouraged. In twenty years she will have 3,000,000 population and $4,000,000-000 worth of property. She will profit by the agricultural mistakes of the past and develop along the lines that nature intended.
Of all the states Kansas will finally show up with the strongest, brainiest man, the handsomest women, the fattest cattle, the most corpulent swine, and the swiftest horses.

It so often happens that conditions and customs of the east are reversed in Kansas. Kansas has a mind of her own and she does as she pleases. Her people don't wait for their slow eastern brethren to make up their minds and then agree with them in their opinion. Kansas people are no respectors of time honored customs of their eastern ancestors, and this fact is certainly commendable. They live in a different age and they act and do and think according to present conditions. An incident that occurred in Dickinson county as given in one of our exchanges illustrates the originality of Kansas papers. It seems that they had a "hazing bee" out there but the hazee who had probably never heard how such barberous affaires were conducted in the eastern institutions of learning got the best of the would be hazers and inflicted serious damage to several of them before they could escape. We suppose the easterners would be horrified to read of such a charge in one of their established customs which is certainly a remnant of a semi-civilized age but they can learn a valuable lesson from this simple illustration. Such customs as practiced in our eastern institutions of learning ought to be made penal of fences. The eastern people may make fun of Kansas and look down upon her people, but Kansas can give the east several valuable lessons. One has to get up early in the morning to out-Kansas a Kansas man.
The election of Phillip S. Elliott of the law school, as vice president of the Kansas Day Club at the annual meeting in Topeka last week is another honor that has been bestowed upon a Kansas University student. This club is composed of the leading republicans of Kansas. It meets once a year in Topeka, on Jan. 29, the birthday of our state. To be selected as one of the officers of this club is quite an honor, and we feel proud that a K.U. student was recognized. The club made no mistake in selecting Mr. Elliot.
Charles F. Scott, another Kansas University graduate, who has made a mark for himself is at present the leading candidate for the republican nomination for congressman at large. Mr. Scott still takes a great deal of interest in the institution, and is at present one of our regents. Aseditor of the Iola Register, Mr Scott has done a great deal of work for his party and no better man could be chosen to represent the state of Kansas. Kansas university, his alma mater, wishes him success.
The petition presented by the students of Missouri University to the faculty of that institution asking that the term
examinations be abolished as given in another column is certainly a move in the right direction. From a student's standpoint this is a much needed reform in our schools today. As it is the term examinations always cause what is known as cramming, and place the students under a certain injurious mental strain, which does not make these final examinations a fair test. Again we should work for what we can accomplish instead of for grades and cramming, which nearly every student does before these final examinations, is certainly working for nothing but grades. It is not generally the student's fault that he must cram. It has become a custom that is forced upon him in order to keep up with his classmates. Occasional examinations throughout the term, together with daily grades, certainly is a fairer test of a student's work:
The selection of C. W. Meyer of Winfield as the orator to represent Kansas University in the state oratorical contest which will be held at Emporia the last of this month meets with the general approbation of this institution. There was no lack of good material for each member that took part in the contest did exceedingly well. The difficulty was in making a selection. It is certain, however, that the judges made a good choice in selecting Mr. Meyer. He is a goodorator, and will well represent Kansas University in the contest. We are confident of his success. He is a member of the Snow Literary society, and represented Winfield college in the state contest last year. W. S. Hyatt, who was given second place, is a member of the Adelphic society.
Homer T. Fuller, "President etc." of Drury college wrote a letter to Chancellor Snow this week in which he attempts to make the "timid" who are afraid of the small pox brace up. President Fuller says that at Drury there have been 350 cases since fall and that no case proved fatal. He urges early vaccination and good care.
Golf in the Universities
The following extract from the current number of The Golfer, will be read with interest by our lovers o' out-door sport.
"College golf continues to grow in all sections. Among the recent clubs formed are the Ohio State University Club, Columbia, O; Sacred Heart Club, Denver, Colo; Western Military Academy Club, Alton, Ill; Ann Arbor Golf club, Ann Arbor, Colo; University of Wisconsin club, Madison, Wis; Pensylvania state college and others. The game has been taken up without reserve and there is no question but what the colleges will bring out our future champions. The unanimity with which the game has been adopted shows that the colleges are becoming aware of the value of golf as a recreation and exercise. Within a few years the college that has no golf links will be a rare article". The movement was started by the larger colleges, and Harvard claims the distinction of being the first to have golf links. This the writer is not prepared to affirm or deny, but there is no question but what Harvard is an enthusiastic golf center. It remains for Princeton, however, to lay claim to having the only eighteen-hole course among the colleges, and the inter-collegiate championship should be held next year on its links."

It was a most delightful affair, charmingly presented, and enjoyably received The decorations consisted of palms, and several pretty effects in electric lights. At the end of the hall, above the gallery, the letters K. K G. appeared in colored lights. Those of the receiving party were Misses Marie Morris, Ethel Luther, Mahal Henry and Agnes Hanson; Messrs Joe Wilson, Geo Davis, Raleigh Fiter and Milo Jones. The double grand march was led by Mr. and Mrs Irving Hill and Mr. and Mrs, Wm. Higgins, Miss Kitty Sellards and Mr. Ray DeLano had charge of the programs. These were dainty white folders with the words Kappa Kappa Gamma in gold letters on the back. The light and the dark blue of the fraternity were represented in the pencils and tassels. The music was unusually fine. Out of town guests were Misses Lottie Parkhurst, Carrie Yates, Helen and Mabel Wilson, and Mr. Gaylord Dudley, of Topeka; Misses Palm, Harvey, Miller, Barns, and Messrs Barshfield, Diamond and House, Kansas City; Misses Mize of Atchison, Edith Parker of Minneapolis, Laura Thorpe, Marion and Bertha Miller.

The rooms were arranged prettily with divans and couches and numbers of sofa pillows scattered invitingly about.
The Zenda Club gave one of its pleasant parties at Pythian hall last night. This was the fifth of the series which the Zendas are giving this winter.

An amusing little force was presented last Saturday afternoon by the girls of the Pi Beta Phi fraternity. It was given at the Unitarian church, and was for the benefit of the PiPhis scholarship fund.

It raised so hard all the afternoon that it was decided to postpone the concert until more favorable weather. However, as several of the country people had braved the storm, it was decided to give them a sample of the music by way of advertisement. Consequently four or five numbers were given and heartily appreciated. Another trip will be made in the near future. The following are members of the organization: Mr. and Mrs. Wyandotte, James L. Newhouse, A.D. - Kolins, Elmer and Walter Kelley and Clark Swasey.

Our Collage
By President Patton of Princeton.
It should be born in mind that the physical man should develop at an equal pace with the mental. Therefore I see nothing harmful in college athletics. As a matter of fact I believe athletics to be of material benefit to the college as well as to the student. In a way they bring the institution more closely to the attention of the rising generation of boys—young men from 18 to 22 are really boys, after all The boys of 12, 13, 14, interested—as all boys are in football, baseball, rowing, etc., take a deep interest in the college sports, and as they grow older a desire to be participants in those struggles strengthens within them
The result of this is that, in addition to the desire to secure the mental advantages resulting from collegiate training, the boy gets a further bent in favor of college through his interest in athletics. In consequence the number of the students is materially increased, and I attribute a very large increase in mental development to a primal increase in college sports.
There, will naturally be a certain amount of roughness attached to these sports, particularly football. We have only football and baseball at Princeton, and so I am more familiar with these. While there have been accidents in the past, some of them very pleasant looking at the matter from a broad stand point, I see no reason why any restrictions should be imposed upon college athletics that do not already exist. I believe that both base ball and football are beneficial to the college men and I do not believe that, as a rule, it effects their standing in their studies otherwise than advantageously. I mean by this that a man who is studiously inclined is not hindered in his studies by athletes; I am equally aware that some who were interested in athletics would under no circumstances be devoted to study."

THE TOPEKA Y. M. C. A. TEAM DE FEATED THE 'VARSITY' IN AN
TOPEKA TOOK ONE.
The Vistors Played Best During the Last Hall and Took the Game by a Score of 24 t.14.
EASY GAME FRIDAY NIGHT.
The 'Varsity basket ball team met its first defeat Friday night at the hands of the Y. M. C. A. team from Topeka. The 'Varsity fellows were up against the real thing and could not win.
During the first half the game was in favor of the 'Varsity'. The ball was for the most part hovering near the 'Varsity goal and the local team was putting up fine passing and interference and was playing snappy with a good lead in the score. But near the last five minutes of the half the Topeks took a firm brace and C. Griggs began a series of five beautiful goals that tied the score and brought consitionation to the local teams.
The second half began with vim. The visitors and the local team went in to win. It was evident after a few minutes of play, however, that the visitors won winnable. There were becoming more accustomed to the baskets and were tossing goals easily. The work of the Griggs boys was fine. It was here also that the 'Varsity began to meet with hard luck. H. Owens was particularly unfortunate with goals and the local team grew careless in passing

Neither team played in the form they were in last year. The home team lacked the old time ginger and the visitors did not play with their former energy. The game was fierce during the last half. The home team was urged on by the old Rock Chalk, but was unable to win a lost game.
For the visitors the Griggs boys and May were the stars, while Yahn was the favorite of the home team. Avery played a gook game while Shipman and the Owens were in their usual form.

Prof Farrell attended the lecture song recital in Kansas City Tuesday given by William Shakespeare, the great London vocal teacher.
FINE ARTS DEPARTMENT,
Miss Anna Hoffman returned Tuesday and has taken up her work again in the musical department.
The faculty will give a series of three concerts this year. The first will be in a bout two weeks. They will be assisted by Prof Hopkins.
The Fine Arts department was quite well represented at the Padarewski concert Those who attended were Prof. Preyer, Prof, and Mrs. Farrell, Prof. Griffith, Elizabeth Hudson, Clara Winter, Laura Thorp, Bessie Criss, Zoe Smith, Edith Davis, Mrs. Worley, Cora Moore, Maure Brom, Anna Hoffman, Ethel King, Ella Nungesser, Viah Cross, Harold Henry and James Campbell.
Miss Mattie Brom has resumed her work again after an absence of a few weeks.
Mr. C. C. Jones had an accident in the shop the first of the week. He was grinding a lathe tool on the big grindstone when the tool slipped off the stone and his hand was caught between the stone and its frame and so tightly wedged as to stop the stone. The first joint of his thumb was ground nearly to the bone.
ENGI NFERING DEPARTMENT NOTES
W. Hoad, 97, has been on the bill several days the past week. Mr. Hoad has a position in the Territory as civil engineer,
The number now enrolled in the shop is 81.
The telegraph association extended its lines a half a mile the past week. The lines are scattered over the student quarter of towns from the University to the goo block on Tennessee street. There are now twenty-three in the association. Membership in the association is not limited to engineers. Anyone in the city of Lawrence is eligible to membership. In fact the association desires to increase its membership as long as it can add the names of persons thoroughly interested in amateur telegraphy.
It may be of interest to know that since the shops opened a year ago all the casualties of any seriousness have been in the metal room, instead of the wood-working room where on account of buzz-saws and rapid turning lathes the accidents usually happen. Within the last year two persons have had fingers cut off. A short time ago Mr Dent had a large vein cut in the back of his hand and Mr Jones completes the list to date.
The only accident in the wood room is credited to Dr Naismith. He was turning something out of a piece of cord wood when the cord wood broke lice and went through the window. The serious part of the accident was that the doctor had to go out and dig his wood out of the snow.
The work now of the Juniors and a part of the Sophomores is steam engine engine. These engines are about fifteenhorse power engines. One of them is partly constructed and another will be begun soon.
The large engine was disabled last Tuesday by an eccentric getting hot. This accounts for the turning off the lights in the offices and corridors of the main building on last Tuesday. The engine is again in working order. This is the same engine that went through the fire at the old shops and was repaired by the employees of the shop, and put into the new shop. This is the first time it has given any trouble, and this certainly reflects some credit on the work of the employees who did the repairing.
Difficulty has been met with in arranging shop hours so as not to conflict with other studies. The shop has to run on Satur days to accommodate those who cannot take the work at other hours. There is not enough instructors in the drafting department.
Nebraska University will send her track team for the meet on the 26th of May. Meets with the S. I. Lakota University track team at Sioux City, Iowa, and with Missouri University at Columbia. are being arranged by Manager Gray.
Nine ex-University men are located in one building in Kansas City, the Water Works building.
Tomorrow the association service will be addressed by Prof. Templin on the subject "Habit." This talk should be heard by every man in the University; do not fail to attend, at North college, Sunday 2:30.

Y. M. C. A. NOTES.
The boys of the Y M C A House entertained Thursday evening in honor of W B Sutton who was in town on business
One of the most important meetings of the association will be that of Sunday, February 25 when Capt Haskell will speak. His subject is "General Principles in choosing a life work."
Mr. Haskell is well known on the hill as one thoroughly qualified to discuss this topic. Advice which comes to a young man has much more force when it is given by a man who has shown himself an expert. Many individual students have their lives wisely directed by words from this venerable sage, and a large audience should now take advantage of this opportunity to hear him upon so vital a subject.
A very successful social event occurred Friday evening when the Association received the Laws in honor of Judge Benson of Ottawa. The home of the Association at 1029 Kentucky Street was crowded with guests and a thoroughly pleasant evening was enjoyed. [Judges Benson and Martin] the guests of honor, spoke briefly in a very pleasing manner.
This address will inaugurate a series of life work addresses to be given by competent men in various lines of work. Among the topics to be discussed as far as possible will be "Science," "Law Teaching" "Business," "Ministry," "and Journalism." The importance of these services can scarcely be overestimated.
The Universal Day of Prayer for Colleges was observed in our association Sunday. The World's Student Christian Federation is now organized in twenty four different nations, including South America Africa, China, Japan, Ceylon, and Australia and now has a student membership of almost 50,000. Our local association is an integral part of this movement which is bringing Christianity in an aggressive form to the educated classes of every land.
An Editorial That Made a Man Famous.
The editorial, What's the Matter With Kansas? which gave to the Emporia Gazette its first impetus and -which was written by William Allen White, the author, was to a certain extent an accident.
Mr. White, who is only 13 years old now, had lately bought the gazette, after serving a long apprenticeship in editorial writing on various Kansas parcs. He left his town for Colorado, where his bridle was spending the summer. Before leaving he wrote this editorial and burg it on the copy hook. When he came back he found not only himself but his paper famous. The Republican National committee sent it out as a campaign document, and among the letters of commendation he received none was more valued than that from Speaker Reed which greeted him on his return from the west.
Mr. White, contrary to general belief, finds it more profitable to devote his time to his newspaper than to fiction. While he is a republican and has been offered political o fices, among which was the Emporia postoffice, which is worth $3,000 a year, he is a stickler for local reforms, and he has steadfastly declined to receive any money that he does not earn. He says the highest compliment that ever was paid to him was by an Emporia back driver who drove an eastern visitor from the station to the editor's house.
"Oh, he's all right, I guess. But he's trying to make this town too infernally good to live in."—Saturday Evening Post.
"How does Mr. White stand in Emporia?"
The Man With the Hoe.
The first edition of "The Man with the Hoe" and other poems published only last May already sells for double the original price. Even more valuable are copies of the San Francisco papers which originally printed and copyrighted Mr. Markhamg' famous poem; one of these papers was bought recently by a collector for $10.

This week the Biological Club listened to a discussion on the "Evolution of Higher Plants" by Prof Stevens. Parts of the address dwell on the theories of the origin of life and the manner of structural modifications which cause difference of species. Illustrations were used.
The Graduate Club.
The attention of all graduate students is called to the meeting on next Wednesday at 5 p. m., in room 15. No one will deny the intense fascination of some special piece of work pursued continuously and exclusively.
Still the very absorption that results is a source of danger. False perspective almost invariably results if it is not checked, and false vision is not scientific. Also contact with our fellow workers is after all the richest source of inspiration. It is only a non-genius who can read valuable results in isolation.
The Graduate Students Club is an effort to partially at least, bring about a personal contact between the graduate students and should receive the support of each and every such student.
The State Oratorical contest has been held in Emporia twice, in 1889 and in 1891. The following is the order and subjects of the contestants for next Friday night at Emporia: South West Kansas College, Louis Allen, "Not Conquest but Liberty;" Baker, R. L. Loofbourrow, Ethics of Government; Midland, Miss Nellie Trueblood, "Madame Roland; Kansas Wesleyan, A. L. Lemanas," "Music and the Age," Washburn, Frank Cell; "The Policy of Hamilton"; K. U. C W Meyer, "The Policy of Bismarck; Ottawa, J. Whit; Eby, "The Hungarian Patriot; "College of Emporia, A P Barnett, "The Hero of Contention," the judges on thought and composition are W A Demmon of Ann Arbor, A W Sherman of the University of Nebraska, W Brockett of the University of Colorado. The orations are now in the hands of these men. The judges on delivery who were chosen several weeks ago are all unable to be present. The president of the Association, G V Keopf, is in trouble, but he is sure to have competent judges ready by next Friday night.
BURKE LITERARY SOCIETY.
At the last meeting, the regular program was dispensed with and every member delivered an address on the Philippine question. The society then chose the two best speakers to represent Burke in the preliminary for the Kansas-Missouri debate. Mr. Flint and Mr. Halcomb were selected.
Burke meets every Friday evening at 7:30 in the east Law room, Frazer ball. Visitors are always welcome.
Visitors are always welcome.

Y. W.C.A. NOTES
The regular meeting of the Y. W. C. A' on Wednesday afternoon was one of the most enjoyable which has been held this year. Maud Nodgleton led the meeting, the subject of which was 'The Angelus'. A short description of the artist Millet and his productions was given by Miss Leach, while Miss Hedgton made a study of the artists most famous picture in its two lights: that of the mere painting and that of the lesson derived from it. The meeting was concluded with the usual prayer and praise service.
The Y W C A meeting next week will be led by Miss Josephine March.
On Thursday of every Week Miss Henderson will conduct a class in Bible study on the Life of Christ. This class will be held at Prof, Olin's residence. It is hoped that many of the Y W girls will take advantage of this course of study.
The intercollegiate committee under Miss Nina Drake has some interesting work before it. Through this committee the Y W C A will be brought into touch with similar organizations of other colleges. Kansas and Nebraska will not only have a common interest in football but also in Y W C A.
Miss Henrietta Henderson, ex-president of the W Y C A, was made a member of the Sigma Xi fraternity at their last meeting. Miss Henderson deserves the honor bestowed upon her, and has the heartiest congratulations of her W Y C A friends.
The social committee of the Y W C J have entered upon their new work with enthusiasm. Several social functions have been planned for the coming term, the first of which will occur at Mrs. Bailey's this afternoon.
The second meeting of the Deaconess Circle was held on last Monday afternoon at room 5. Miss Augusta Hall gave a very entertaining talk upon the history of the work. She told of its organization, traced its growth in the different lands and concluded with an account of the work being done now in Chicago, Kansas City and other large cities of America. The meetings of this Deaconess Circle promises to be very interesting. The members will be kept in touch with the work by Mrs. Rider Meyer, head of this movement in America, and will also do some practical work on the line. All who are interested in this cause are urged to attend the meetings which will be held on the first Monday of every week.
The Y M C A and W Y C A will entertain the members of the family and the seniors at the Y M C A house on February 22.
The philanthropic committee has arranged a party for the poor children of the industrial school for Saturday, the 24th.
The Philanthropic committee of the Y W C A met with the Associated Charitates of this city on last Tuesday evening. The University committee will work with the city organization during the coming year. In addition to assisting in the sewing, cooking and kindergarten departments of the mutual training school, the young ladies of the committee will make visits among the poor of the city. This is a difficult work and a very creditable one.
Eight new members were taken into the Y. W. C. A. at their last meeting.
The Quill club mettween last week, on Monday and Thursday afternoons at 4 o'clock. After a short business meeting at which it was decided to change the time of regular meeting from Monday to Thursday. Ed S. Lindsay read a thesis on Dean Wen Howells and his works. Miss May Hotchkiss Spencer, A.B., '94, LL.B., '68, was then introduced to the club. She explained to the club the proposition to found an alumni magazine in Kansas University, and invited the members to cooperate with and assist the management to maintain the department which will be devoted to University affairs. At the meeting on Thursday Miss Elizabeth Sellars read a short story.

The Students Herald of the State Agricultural college, announces that the largest tooth in the world is at that institution. The Baker Orange comes back at the Agricultural college claiming that Baker has the greatest collection of fossils west of the Mississippi river. We hope there is nothing personal in the se remarks.
After a stormy contest at Baker last week, Wednesday, during which some of the divines in the excitement even went so far as to yell out in the meeting. Mr. Robert Alonza Loofbourrow was chosen to represent Baker in the state oratorical contest. Judging from his name we should say that Mr. Robert Loofbourrow stood a good chance of winning second place. Of courses our Mr. Mayers will be given first place
Last Sunday was observed as a day of prayer among the institutions of learning all over the world. This was in accordance with the recommendation of the general committee of the World's Student Christian Federation. The committee that selected last Sunday as a day of prayer was composed of the official representatives of the Christian student nt movement of Germany, Scandinavia, Great Britain, France, the Netherlands, Switzerland, the United States, Canada, Australia, South Africa, Japan, Ceylon, China and other mission lands including 1,300 student societies with a membership of over 55,000 students. As a day of fervent prayer it has been very rich in its results. This year it was observed in over thirty countries by Christian students. It is a day set apart by persons who were ardent in the endorsement of Christ among the students everywhere and the movement is certainly to be encouraged in every possible manner. The whole week was fittingly observed at Kansas University as a week of prayer. Several meetings were held during the week and last Sunday the ministers of the different churches of Lawrence delivered sermons especially for the students. These services were well attended.
The Missouri State University Independent publishes a column article on the front page of its last issue about the decline of oratory in that institution the scarcity of orators, the difficulty of getting M. S. U. students to take part in the inter-state debate, and calls attention to the fact that M. U. has not won first place in a contest of that kind for years. It is certainly a deplorable condition that exists at our neighboring university, and much to be regretted, but the funny part of it is that on the editorial page of the same issue there is a windy article
on how easy Missouri will lay Kansas in the shade in the debate between these two schools, ending up as follows:
The preliminary contest in which debaters for Kansas are to be selected draws near. We find many able men in the contest. We are certain of a strong team and the subject is an interesting one and deserving of study. We do not fear Kansas in an intellectual contest.
The Independent man certainly is a funny fellow. This article reminds us of some of the extremely funny remarks the Missourians indulged in prior to the great Thanksgiving foot ball game. We have some of them in our scrap book and they are certainly funnier than most of Judge's or Pucks's stories. At that time it was Coach White who had "coached Cornell to victory," that was going to show defeat down the Jayhawker's threats. It turned out, however, that Coach White never coached a college team in his life before and all his connection with the Cornell team was in the capacity of a "sub." It may be true that Missouri is not afraid of Kansas in an intellectual contest with the accent on the intellectual, but it was the same story before the big football game. They are indeed a very windy set of M. S. U, but their confidence in winning the Missouri-Kansas debate leads us to suspect that they have as they did in football imported some "way up people from back east."
The state oratorical contest will be held at Emporia on the evening of February 23rd. The Santa Fe railway company will give one half fare rate. All students that desire to go should give their names to Mr. Bumgardner at once so he may make arrangements for transportation, and have seats reserved. K. U. has a strong representative this year in the person of Mr. Meyers, and all students should lend their support and presence.
Several publications have given the new WEEKLY management very compliment notices for which we are very grateful.

LAW SCHOOL NOTES.
Phi Gamma Delta issued invitations this week for their annual dancing party. It will be at New Eldridge hall on Friday, Feb 23.
Prof Burdict caused a great demonstration among the Smiors on Friday morning of last week by announcing that no examination would be required in Railroad law. The Sniers have been carrying more work of late than has heretofore been required of the seats and in view of this fact he deemed it the proper thing to do. With the close of Friday morning class, he finished all work with the 'oo' class, much to the regret of Senior students. His work through the two years has been very earnest, and great good has been accomplished by his efforts.
The Seniors met last week to decide upon a class picture, but owing to so many diverse opinions as to what the class wanted they adjourned to a future date.
Judge Martina is making fine progress with the Equity class.
The Y M C A had a reception at their house on Kentucky Street for Judge Benon last week on Friday night after class.

SIDE TALKS WITH GIRLS.
It is somewhat of an innovation for a college paper to run a "side talk" column but since necessity demands it the WEEKLY will gladly consider all requests. Communications relative to this column should be addressed to the Aesthetic Editor, K. U. WEEKLY.
Spare made reader: Of course rainy day dresses are quite the rage from, in fact they are a necessity. From the point of view of health and economy the custom should be fostered. They do not look as good as long dresses, but they do not look bad. As to whether you would look well in one or not it would be impossible for us to say never having seen you thus attured. There are two classes of girls who do not; those classes were mentioned in the 'Idler Column'" of a December WEEKLY. Any of your girl friends can decide this question for you as it seems you do not from your letter, treat him kindly and do not let him impractilly.
Disturbed boarder: Indeed it does grate on one to see a man eat with his knife, especially as you say when he wears a celluloid collar. You can get some of the boys to give him private lessons in eating, and to dispense with the collar, you might also use the boys. Have them buy the collar at twice its value then burn it in the front yard in the presence of the Freshman and then send him down town to buy some new collars. This plan has proved successful.
Miss N. O Body—No it is not considered good taste to give your lead pencils for hair pins. It looks aggressive and business like to wear a half dozen pencils in your hair, but it is inelegant. You can get an arm load of hair pins for four cents and a nice ornamented box for eleven cents at almost any racket store.
Amy;- It looks bad enough to see a boy picking his teeth in the street. Do not in the name of all the gods and little fishes, use a tooth pick on the way from the club. It shows Missouri or Arkansas breeding,or perhaps better, none at all.
Constant Reader.—If the young man continues to show too much interest in you you might freeze him gently, or plan through some of your friends to let him know that he is too attentive. Or better still, corral your pluck and tell him plainly what you think if you really do care for the young man.

Superstition: To see the moon and 52,-250,146 stars over your right shoulder, in winter, is a sign of ice on the pavement. In summer, it signifies a banana skin. To find a horsehoe in your one'et is a sign that the cook is absent minded. If you wake up in the night and think you hear burglars, and find instead a black cat; it is a sign that the free and unlimited coinage of swear words goes into effect.-Ex.

ST. VALENTINE,8 WISDOM.
Cupid sat near to St. Valentine,
He was sorting out his darts,
Repairing his bow and his quiver,
And toying with broken hearts.
Said he to the saint, with weary sigh,
"I'm tired of this frailless hunt.
*Time was when a dart of elder pith
Would pierce the very core
From sordid, leathery hearts today
My arrows fall dull and blunt.
- common heart, and the tougher ones
  it would make exceedingly sore.
'Now naught but an arrow tipped with gok
Will reach a vital part.
And no such thing can be found today
as a flaming, burning heart."
"The turtle dove it has quite gone by,
And welded hearts are passe,
Said the aged saint, "You quite express
The thing that I meant to say,
And we've got to use modern methods,
If we'd make the business pay,
And wieded hearts are passe,
But any battered old coronet
Has a cinch to win the day.
"And the very swellest new design for sealing lovers' letters.
And a pair of golden fetters.
You would hardly guess! 'Tis the dollar sign
And a pair of golden fitters.
*Then take advice, if the game you'd bag.
Don't aim at the shrunken heart."
Annabelle Henchman in Eureka, Louisiana.
And draw a bead on the scheming head— Don't aim at the shrunken heart."

A bright thought struck him, and he said:
"The rich Miss Goldcocks I will
But when he paid his court to her

Michigan, Illinois, Notre Dames, Purdue, and other western colleges have tried graduate coaching and having failed to turn out as good a team as formerly, have concluded that the fault lay in the coaching, whether just or not, time will tell. Indianapolis Press.
Outside Opinion on Graduate Coaching.
It seems that the system of graduate coaching, started in the west several years ago, has about lost its favor, and that the western colleges will again go back to the big colleges of the east for their teachers. It is too bad that the present movement has set in. It is not a self-reliant attitude of the western colleges. It is an admission that the' western players have not been taught the game as well as the eastern brothers.

All have the stern mouth partially covered by a military mustache, wall have piercing eyes, all have the determined chin, and all have a severely military bearing All are disciplinarians of the strictest type, and all regard the common soldier as but an integral part of the mighty machine which is to do his bidding, no matter what the result—Indianapolis Press.
The East must beware of the literary Lochinvars of the West. The West has passed through its transition period. The battle against nature has been fought and won. The wilderness, the prairie, and the desert have been conquered. The struggle has not been without its effect on the victors, for it has brought forth a race of giants, strong, alert, and exultant. The energies thus developed will be directed into the field of literature. The West has been written about in the past, but the writers have come from the East and elsewhere. Here after it can take care of itself. We predict that writers from this section will be characterized by a virile power and originality such as has not been seen in American literature for a third of a century. —Washington Post'

The lilly of the valley has been found at last. Far from being as innocent as it looks, the lovely and fragrant white flower is chock full of prussic acid, the deadly poison lurking in stalks and petals in dangerous abundance. So potent is the venomous juice that if a small quantity of it be absorbed into the system it immediately produces painful effects, which might occasion symptoms of an alarming nature. It is well to remember, too, that if the dead flowers are eaten by young birds or pigeons the poison inevitably proves fatal.

Marie Corelli Coming to America.
Miss Marie Corelli is to make a trip over to the United States. Talking of America and the Americans in an enthusiastic way, she says:
"I am going over to America. I like Americans so much. They are so keenly intelligent and quick in thought."
The charming little authoress has strong ideas that Englishmen could borrow much from Americans in the way of moral and physical energy or the sake of the advancement of their country.—London Letter.
AMONG THE POETS
In women and in man I find it not:
I almost weary of my cartrys let:
For this true nobleness I seek in vain.
In women and in men I find it gritty.
My life springs are dried up with burning pain.
Thou tnds't it not? I pray these look again.
How is it with thee? Art thou sound and whole?
Look inward through the depth of thine own soul.
Doth narrow search show thee no earthly pain?
Then will light around thy path be shed;
Then wilt thou see it gleem in many eyes;
James Russell Lowell
How does the soul 'grow? Not all In a minute;
And thou wilt never more be sad and lone.
—James Russell Lowell.
Do it, do it and do it, that is in other men, sleeping, but never dead
Hurrah then, sleeping, but never dead,
Will rise in majesty to meet thine own;
Be noble, and the nobleness that lies
Now it may lose ground, and now it may win it;
Now it rejoiceth, and now it bewaileth;
Now its hopes fructify, then they are
blighted;
Now it walks sunnily, now gropes be- nighted;
Now it resolves, and again the will faileth;
Fed by discouragements, taught by disaster.
So it goes forward, now slower, now faster.
Till, all the pain past. and failures made whole.
It is full-grown, and the Lord rules the soul.

VENUS IN THE EVENING.
Beautiful Planet Going Higher and Higher These Nights.
According to the astronomical data for February furnished by the Washington observatory, Mercury passes through superior conjunction Feb. 9 and may be seen as a low evening star the last few evenings of the month if the atmosphere be very clear. Venus continues to appear higher in the southwestern sky as the brilliant evening star. The disk is now a little more than three-quarters illuminated, so that in the telescope the planet appears like a moon between first quarter and full. The planet is increasing its apparent brilliance more rapidly as its orbital motion brings it nearer the earth. Jupiter is the highest star in the morning sky and is seen in the southeast, reaching the meridian at about the time of sunrise. It is followed by Saturn, which is seen in a lower position in the southwestern sky. Mars is still too near the sun for observation.

PRESENT.
WILL SOON BEGIN OUTDOOR WORK.
It is Preparing for Interstate Meets with Nebraska, Missouri, and South Dakota.
Manager Gray of the Kansas University track team has made arrangements for a meet with the Nebraska team to be held at Lawrence May 26. Last year the Kansas Nebraska team was held at Lincoln and the Nebraskans were easy victors but this year the K. U. team has gone into training early which it did not do last year, and will be able to put up a better contest. Besides there is a great deal more interest being taken in track work this year and there is a good deal more material from which to pick a team.
which to pick them out. The track men started their outdoor work a few weeks ago, but the bad weather has compelled them to train; indoors most of the time. They had held a few preliminary cross-country runs under the direction of Capt. Cates, but these had to be given up until good weather begins again.
again.
The runners are practicing at starting in the gymnasium and are getting along, all right. Capt Cates is anxious to get his men at work out doors again, because it is essential to begin early to get them in form by the time of the spring meets.
form by the use of a meeting. A meet has been arranged with Missouri State University, to be held at Columbia, but the date has not yet been decided upon. A proposition has been made by South Dakota to meet the Jayhawkers at Sioux City, and Manager Gray thinks the offer will be accepted. He was figuring on having a state meet at Lawrence for all the Kansas colleges, but if the meets with South Dakota and Missouri can be satisfactorily arranged, the state meet will probably be abandoned. He has, however, spoken to the several of the Kansas colleges about such a meet, and if they are anxious for one it may be held at Lawrence after all.—Ex.
K. S. U. GIRLS GET MARRIED.
When the Rev E W Donald in a recent address at Andover Academy, Mass., took occasion to criticize the higher education, which may overwhelm him. Dr Donald was fearful that educated women would not marry and be came armed with statistics in an attempt to prove that when a young woman bird gone through the average college course she was unwilling to assume the petty annoying obligations which housewifery and maternity bring. The statistics upon which all this was based were supplied by investigation into the lives of the young women who had taken B. S, degrees at Bryn Mawr college Pennsylvania.
In Kansas State University Fifty Per Cent of the Woven Graduates H.ve Married.
There were only 234 of these women young and old who had gone out from this institution for their high and exclusive education and of that number only thirty two up to and including the class of 1894 had married. In all only 14 per cent of the graduates had been willing to risk a man in the house,
he are not considerable in the interest.
The chancellor of the State University at once began to dig up catalogues and take account of the women who had gone forth with degrees. He wrote to all those who had not been properly reported and gleefully chuckled as the evidence accumulated. There had been 125 women graduates of the State University up to and including 1894. The returns, when all were in, showed that sixty-three of them, a little more than 50 per cent had married.
a man in the house
Chancellor Snow, of the Kansas State University in common with any number of other educators, read the speech and the comments on it. He did some commenting himself, but before he talked without reserve he did considerable investigation.
ference in a Kansas coeducational institution and a Pennsylvania exclusive college for women will force the institution of numerous comparisons. Do the educated young women of Kansas take more kindly to matrimony, or do more of them marry because the supply of available young men is larger than it is in the east? Or is there an advantage from the matrimonial standpoint, in co-educational institutions?—Mail and Breeze.

FOSSIL HUNTING IN WYOMING.
It Was a Kansen Who Worked the Wyoming Deposit First.
In "Science" for February 9. Elmer S Riggs, A.B., A.M., 96, now of the Field Columbian Museum of Chicago, has an article dated January 23, correcting some accuracies which appeared in the article on "Fossil Hunting in Wyoming," in the January Cosmopolitan.
In the course of the article, Mr. Rugg says: "The valuable deposit worked out by the Field Columbian Museum party had not previously been passed over by 'a Kansas University professor,' as stated by the author of the Cosmopolitan article. On the contrary, the quarry had been quoted and worked for some time by the Kansas University men. After they had taken out a large quantity of unusually good material and returned home, the Field Museum party made a new stripping beside the old and obtained from it large additions to its summer's collection." The statement in question in the Cosmopolitan is the following: "As the work progressed during the day, it became apparent that another prospector a Kansas University professor, had spent some hours on the same spot a month earlier, but had passed on without recognizing the fertility of the exposure." Howard W. Bell is the author of the article.
Pennsy's Track Team Will Go to England
Pennsylvania University track team will leave for England June 20 on the steamship New York. Arriving in the land of John Bull, the Quakers will put in at least two weeks training to accustom themselves to the British climate, and July 7 will compete in the English championships in London. There they will have a chance to meet the men of Oxford and Cambridge, who, a year ago, defeated the team from Yale and Harvard.
After the English games the team will be taken to the vicinity of Paris, where they will have a week's preparation for the Olympian games, which will be the event of the year.
Perl Decker's Oratory.
The program of Olympian games at the Paris exposition is as follows: Sports begin on Map 27 and last until October 28. They include track and field games, hockey, cricket, tennis, croquet, bowling, base ball, lacrosse and golf. American colleges will enter in the 110 meters hurdle, 100 meters dash, 400 meter and other long distance runs and steeplechases, high and broad jump, pole vault, putting shot and throwing discus. The world championship events will occur July 15, 17, 19 and 22. The prizes will be meda's ranging in value from 50 francs to 400 francs. A special event is the international relay race of 5,000 meters, in which teams of five men will take part. All American teams are entered for this event.
Attorney Perl Decker's oratory in the police court night before last has borne fruit. While Ben Moran, the man he defended against the charge of intoxication, undertaking to prove that he never touched a drop of liquor, was fined by Judge Osborne after the hearing, the case was reinstated and reconsidered. The result was that the prisoner was released and the money he had paid for his fine was returned to him.
The flight of oratory was a little slow in getting in its work, but in the final round-up it was all there, and had full weight with the court. Mr. Decker is to be congratulated upon being able to get a police court to reconsider its verdict; the case is a rare one and should go down into history as such. Joplin Globe.
Be Wes a Football Flaver,
HE WERE FOOTBALL.
The Missouri Tigers went to Fulton last fall in a wagonette to play foot ball. The wagonette was tipped over and one of the Tigers had his nose broken. He sued the liveryman for $500 and lost. The attorney for the defendants argued that "so small an accident as a broken nose amounted to nothing to a football player."

Funk of the Tigers Throws Five Goals and Is the Star Of the Game.
The Jayhawkers' basket ball team was badly defeated by tld Y M C A Tigers of Kansas City last week, Friday, at Kansas City. The atmosphere of the Missouri river town seemed to have a peculiar effect upon the youths from Kansas and they did not put up their usual snappy game. Yahn played his usual strong game at back, while Vandruff carried off the honors at goal throwing.
the honors at goal throwing.
The Tigers scored the first goal, but the Jayhawkers threw two in rapid succession a few moments later, when it was nip and tuck for a while before Funk tied the score with another basket. The Kansans got in front twice more before the half was over, but each time their opponents equalled things up and the first part of the game finally ended with the score 8 to 8. Apparently the Lawrence team shot its bolt at the start, for in the second half they did not succeed in making a point, while the Tigers rolled up ten, all on goals from the field.
from the held. The Kansas City champions played all around their 'varsity rivals, both individually and collectively. This is not saying anything derogatory to the Kansas team work, for it was very good, but the Tigers was better. They kept the University boys on the jump all the time, and in the second half simply plyaed them off their feet.
Funk with his record of five goals from the field probably deserves the honor of being called the star of the game. He certainly proved a tower of strength to his team and his accurate throwing more than any thing else caused the Kansans' defeat. Ricksecker the K.C. center threw the two most sensational baskets of the evening, one from the center and the other out of a scrimmage on the side line.
Vandruff probably did the best work for Kansas as far as scoring it. He scored twice both times on quick passes that the eye could hardly follow. F. Owen also put up a fast game but his one basket was an easy one that did not show any particular skill. The scores:

LAWRENCE, KAN., FEB. 24. 1900
The disgraceful political sirife that has been going on in Kentucky culminated in the cruel assassination of William Goebel, the democratic candidate for governor at the last election. Even since Taylor, the republican candidate, was declared elected governor by a democratic election board, despite the powerful election machinery that was devised and wielded by Goebel himself, this contest has taken on a criminal hue. Armed men gathered on the street and shot each other down everybody seemed to be armed for an emergency; hundreds of armed men came down from the mountain regions and camped during the contest, at Frankfort, the capital of the state. At present, peace is being preserved, by the militia during a temporary armistice. This is certainly not the way things are done in civilized communities. There are lots of intelligent citizens in Kentucky but they certainly hang their heads in shame over such disgraceful affairs. The lesson is obvious. Schools are a secondary consideration in Kentucky. Many people of that state are even opposed to the public school system at all. Those who are able, go away to school, while the others grow up with comparative little education. The public school system is what needs to be remedied in Kentucky. Kentucky can continue to raise fast horses and drink more whiskey than any other state, at the same time neglecting the education of her children, but just so long will disgraceful affairs as the one that has just transpired continue in that state.
The Midland, published by the students of Midland College at Atkinson, comes out with a special oratorical contest issue that is certainly a credit to the publishers. It contains the orations of all who took part in the state oratorical contest at Emporia Friday, together with cuts of several of the orators. It is an excellent souvenir of the contest and is well worth the small price charged for it.
The Washburn Review has been running articles on the "Ideal Boy" and the "Ideal Girl." The article on the ideal boy was particularly good and deserves especial mention. It was well written and contains excellent thoughts. The young lady who wrote it is to be congratulated and we sincerely hope she will find her ideal boy.
The lack of interest that the Freshman showed in their class party this week indicates that something is radically wrong. It is the old story of Kansas university, lack of class spirit. A student who does not take enough interest in his class to attend the class parties where
the different members meet for the purpose of becoming acquainted with each other, certainly ought not to be here. If he expects to shut himself up from all society and take no interest in what goes on around him he should not come to college. A hermit's life is detested there more than in any other place. It is a deplorable state of affairs when students are not loyal enough to attend class affairs. This lack of class spirit is manifested not alone by the Freshmen but by every class in the University to a certain extent.
Y. M. C. A. NOTES.
All University men should hear Captain Haskell Sunday afternoon when he speaks upon the subject "General Principles in Choosing a Life Work." This will be of vimportance to undergraduates and should be heard by a large number of men. At North College, 2:30 p. m.
The reception to be given the Faculty and the Seniors has been postponed to March 2. This promises to be a most enjoyable event.
The eight students who live at the Y M C, A. house scored 21 "ones" for the first term while the two Seniors in the house were elected Phi Beta Kappa.
At Minnesota university the association has 500 members and the Y. W. C A has 250. This is no larger a percentage of students than our membership at K, U., as the enrollment at Minnesota is 3200.
The general Secretary desires to secure several copies of the Weekly for Jan. 20. Leave them at the headquarters
The Association desires to be kept in ormed of any sickness among the students; information along this line may be placed in the mail box in Fraser hall. The physicians of Lawrence have also been asked to assist the officers of the association in this way,
An important event of the work of the Association will be the annual banquet to be given April 7. The social committee is already planning for this occasion and a successful affair may be confidently expected.
The social committee united Saturday night with a like committee of the Y W C A in a very pleasant affair at the association house on Kentucky street.

The hall was not decorated, but enjoyed dancing to good mandolin and guitar music. Punch and wafters were served during the evening.
AMUSEMENTS.
Lawrence, Kan
The close of the eighth year of the existence of Sousa and his band finds this organization more firmly established in the favor of the public than ever before. During the last twelve months the band has completed a tour of the United States and Canada covering 35,000 miles of travel and touching the principal towns, everywhere drawing unprecedented receipts and it has been a record breaking attraction at the great National Export Exposition at Philadelphia,and the Industrial Exposition at Pittsburg, and the Food Fair at Boston.
There is no more welcome announcement of the entire season than that of a popular concert by Sousa's band at the Bowersock opera house on March 3. The great composer and conductor has so many friends and admirers in this community that the musical season would be incomplete indeed without a Sousa coacert. The special soloists with the great band this season are Bertha Bucklin, violinist, and Blanche Duffeld, soprano.
The itinerary of Sousa and His Band after the conclusion of the present season includes an extended tour of Europe with a series of concerts at the Paris Exposition, and the return to America will be followed by another grand trans-continental tour, eclipsing all former ones. This organization has been appointed the official American band at the Paris Exposition.
SOUSA AND HIS BAND.
With its years of continuous concert work under the discipline and direction of a master musician, the Sousa band is on a plane of artistic excellence that has never been attained by any other organization, and the Sousa concerts will be found, as in the past, to be the ideal musical entertainment.

The following is a short history of the part the University has played in the Inter-Collegiate Oratorical Association:
L. H. Leach, A. B., '84, now of Van Conover, Washington, and W. C. Spangler, LL.B., '85, of Lawrence, represented K. U. at a convention in Topeka to organize the association, on March 15, 1884.
The first contest was held in Lawrence April 18, 1884, and Mr. M. H. Mays was awarded first place over four other contestants. But the next morning he was convicted of plagiarism and another contest was held in Baldwin on April 23, and L. H. Leach, representing K. U., was successful. Rev. W. A. Quayle, of Baker, took second place.
The third contest was held in Topeka March 12, 1886. and K. U.'s representative Cyrus Spkes Crane, A. B., '87, of Kansas City, took first place.
At the fifth annual contest held at Baker, Feb 10 1883, Louis C. Stebbins LL.B.'89 of Topeka, representing K. U took first place. At the sixth contest at Emporia, Feb.8, 1898, F.E. Rae, A:B.'89, now of Kansas City, representing K. U took second place. The ninth contest was held at Topeka, Feb.12, 1892 and Janus M. Challis, LL.B.'84 of Attichion, representing K. U took second place. The fifteenth contest was held in Lawrence, Feb.25, 1898, and first place was awarded P. S. Elliott, A. B.'89, LL.B.'00, Washburn and K. U. have each had first place four times. Baker comes next having had it three times. The State Normal has had it twice and Winfield and Kansas Wesleyan once each.

It indicates that they are profligates and speeddrifts, and will make poor husbands. Most Atchison girls walk or ride on the street cars and we are proud of it.

The party given at Mrs. Bailey's last Saturday afternoon for the Senior girls was a grand success. Mrs. Bailey's pleasant parliars were decorated with potted plants, and presented a very charming appearance. After a short time passed in getting better acquainted with one another, the guests were furnished with cards on which a set of questions was written. The answers to the questions were all words ending in t, ty or tie. When this had been disposed of tea was served in the pretty dining room. Souvenirs were presented the guests in the shape of cards cut in the form of the letter T, and tied with the Senior colors, green and white.
The reception to be given to the Seniors and faculty, by the cabinets of the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A., has been postponed from last Thursday evening to next Friday, March 2. It will be held at the Y. M. C. A. house on Kentucky street.

In the first place we have very few real poor people in Kansas and what we have we treat well, exceedingly well.
Probably better, gentle reader than in any other state in the union.
Here for instance is a sample story that we can give by way of example from Finney county.
The Way They Do in Kansas.
"What is the chance for a poor man in Kansas?" asks an eastern reader.
This story is official. It is gathered from a report made to the State Labor Commissioner by one of the county officials.
Finney is a large county living well out in the western third of the state. It has an area of 1,296 square miles. The county, it will be noticed, is as large as the entire state of Rhode Island. In all this area it seems from the report, there is but one pauper, and he is well cared for. The county has provided a poor farm worth $20,000 and fitted it with buildings worth $3,000. To look after the welfare of this financially embarrassed citizen, the county provides a superintendent and a physician. Last year its solitary inmate spent 170 days in the $53,000 home provided for his comfort at a total expense to the county of $46
It would have been cheaper possibly to have paid his board at the leading hotel of the county seat, but there is nothing home-like about a hotel. In that case he would have simply been a common boarder, taking his chances along with traveling men and other guests of the place. He would have no $3,000 - building practically all to himself, and no superintendent and special physician to look after his welfare. What the gentleman did the other six months when he was not occupying the county home for the financially embarrassed, the report does not say. We presume, however, that he was out on a vacation and may, for all we know, have been enjoying himself at some health resort, a pleasant example of the muñificent generosity of Kansas people.
We ask in all candor, what other state in the Union can point to a county within its borders which fits up a $23,000 poor farm far the benefit of a single unfortunate citizen? What other state can show a county with 4,000 people, an area of 1,200 square miles and only one pauser? We challenge the world for comparison — Topeka Mail and Breeze.
For reception wear we've just received by express, full line sizes, the light pearl gray Kid Gloves, black or white stitching. Price ought to be $1.50, but the price is $1 too; at WEAVER'S.

Why the Harpers Failed
The causes of the failure of the Harpers are thus summed up by the Brooklyn Eagle:
"When the elder Harpers established their business, the American reading public was small and the people who bought magazines and books were an intellectual aristocracy. The rule of the publishing business, which purveyed luxuries, was small sales and large profits.
"Within the last fifteen years that rule has been comp etely reversed, and the people who made money rely on enormous sales at small profits.
"The new men who have come into the business, have sold books with no more sentiment than they would have expended upon a trade in whiskbooms or overshirts.
"The they have adopted the principle by which other merchants prospered, while the Harpers have stuck by the traditions of their house of fine goods at high prices and of the highest honor and generosity in dealing with authors."

K. U. WINS SECOND PLACE.
WASHBURN IS GIVEN FIRST PLACE IN THE STATE ORATORICAL CONTEST
WAS AN ENTHUSIASTIC CONTEST.
C. W. Meers the K. U. Representative Does Well and Many Think He Should Have Had First Place.
In the oratorical contest Mr C W Meyers of Kansas University had a walkway for second place while all of old K. U.'s opponents, except Washburn, thought Meyers had as easy first. Mr. Cell who won first place, had no easy thing of it. The Salina college should remember and not depen upon a last year's bird nest. They perhaps thought the flag with "remember last year" upon it would have the magic effect of "Remember the Maine." Their orator had heard Paderewski play, and took for his theme "Music and the Age," and showed how music affects the human race from start to finish, from the rebellious babe in the cradle to the daring hero on the battle field. Baker had not recovered from the small pox sufficiently enough to have the quarantine raised. Each delegation had to go about with a strip of that yellow emblem of danger upon him. While Baker was not as game as last year, she walked off with fourth place. Their oration was a petition to Uncle Sam stating that Baker was the Occident and the Philippines were the Orient, and that it was a much needed policy, for this government to turn the Orient over to the Occident for safe government and good religion.
The two orations that had caused some fear among the orators, "The Hero of Contention," and "Malame Roland," proved successful in getting seventh and eighth places respectively. The scrap that enteraed the audience while awaiting the decision of the judges, very tame.
In the meeting of the association those delegates that represented the always defeated institutions made a struggle to change the constitution of the association, with the hope, that, as it could be no worse, a change might in some way help them. But the dangers of changing the constitution were pointed out by its ardent supporters and no effective changes were made.

The Kansas State Normal oven is not such a warm thing as its name would indicate.
It is announced that there are 942 students at Missouri University. We wonder if that includes Coach White?
The Purple and Gold published by Bellevue College of Bellevue, Neb., is certainly a credit to that institution. It contains valuable reading matter and is neatly and successfully gotten up. The students of that institution should be congratulated upon their paper.
The Washburn Review has caught the fever and last week took occasion to comment on the experiment of the Rev. Mr Shelden. The "Review" is rapidly becoming cosmopolitan.
Poor Washburn Even its basket ball team has been defeated three times this year and the season has scarcely opened.
The Daily Cardinal from the University of Wisconsin is chuck full of advertising and just a little shy on reading matter.
Next summer and fall, Paris will be the scene of the Olimpian Games, in which athletes from America, Germany, France and England will contest in tennis, base ball, foot ball and track events.
The Otterbein Aegis published at the Otterbein university of Ohio is a neat little magazine but it's editor persists in running essays and original poems.
The Ariel of the University of Minnesota is soon to be a daily.
The dramatic club of the University of Minnesota is to present the School for Scandal soon. This club is not any more particular than the one time club of K. U.
The College of Emporia will not have a base ball team this spring.
Fairmount College of Wichita, will receive a donation of $50,000 from a Boston man, providing $150,000 more can be raised.
It is learned from good authority that the Baker students are practicing some "new" yells, and songs for the State Oratorical contest. We wonder where they got them?
ANOTHER GLEE CLUB STORY.
How Manager Copley Was Scared Out of a Year's Growth.
The Glee Club boys report a good joke on their manager, Mr. Copley. While they were waiting at Cherokee to catch the train to Girard, twelve miles distant, one of the members hatched up a diabolical plot to scare the manager out of a year's growth. He had seen Mr. Copley buy the tickets for the eighteen members and he noticed also that the tickets had been carlessly deposited in one of Mr. Copely's side pockets. With the defiance of one of the light fingered fraternity, he relieved the manager of this precious bit of paper and then put the rest of the boys on
It was then decided to let the conductor into the game in order to carry the joke to the end. As soon as the train pulled in, the ticket was turned over to the conductor and the boys all collected in the smoker to see the fun. As the conductor passed through the car collecting fare, he was almost always met with the response, "Company, collect from the manager."
Finally the manager was approached and he immediately dug down into the pocket in which he was accustomed to carry such articles and a noticeable pallor came over his face. From this pocket his hand wandered nervously to others and then both hands were actively employed in racing from one pocket to another, inside and out, only to return to the first and begin again the vain search.
The pallor had given way to a flush as the manager realized his embarrassing situation and the conductor offered to collect the other fares and then return for the club tickets.
But the grace allowed was not sufficient for the discovery of the missing article and when the conductor returned Mr. Copley was still somewhat heated. The conductor was a very kind hearted man and offered his sympathy, but the position left but two courses open to him. He must either collect full fire or pull the bell cord.
A few of the boys volunteered to take chances on the latter course as they were then within a few miles of their destination. But Mr. Copley generously refused to make the boys walk, and he sat down to figure up the amount. While busy with his calculation the conductor made a suggestion which immediately disspelled all traces of care from the manager's worried face, and which brought him to his feet on the instant. The conductor had intimated that it might be possible that the ticket had fallen on the inside of Mr. Copley's vest, or in some way slipped down in his clothing, and that if he wished he could go up in the wash room and investigate.
The manager fairly jumped at the chance and left the car amidst the smothered laughter of the passengers, all of whom had by this time learned the particulars

of the case. It was some little time before Mr. Copley made his reappearance and it was seen from the forced expression on his face that he had resigned himself to the inevitable. He had probably been revolving in his mind the old adage, 'Don't cry over spilled milk.'
It was at this point that the conductor showed the true generosity of his spirit and at the same time made for himself a home is the appreciative heart of Mr. Copley. He offered to accept Mr. Copley's word of honor that he bought a ticket and said that he would telegraph back from Girard to the ticket agent in Cherokee.
Just as this agreement was reached, the whistle sounded for Girard. The promoters of this little joke were the first ones to leave the train and before Mr. Copley could get his heavy grips to the platform there was a bogus telegram in the depot, purporting to be from Cherokee and saying that a club ticket, such as the one in question, had been purchased not an hour before.
Mr. Copley made a rush for the telegraph office and arrived just in time to meet the conductor coming out with the telegraph in his hand. It was a rich treat to the boys and also to the conductor, to see the naturally happy face assume its old time expression.
The conductor could not accept all of the thanks of the manager and hastened away through the crowd to his train.
