THE BASE BALL SEASON.
5——0——
Will Open Early in April—Forty Men Are Trying for Places on the Team—The 'Varsity Meets Haskell April 7.
The Outlook for 1900—More Men and More Enthusiasm Than Ever Bef Geer Will Coach the Team-The Best Schedule Kansas Ever Had-Game With the University of Chicago.
The base ball fever is just now very high. There has never been so many eager men who will try for places on the nine as there are this spring. There has never been so much enthusiasm as there is now. The Athletic association has never taken so much interest in the sport as it is taking this spring. There has never been so much interest among the students and the faculty as there is now. Base ball which has formerly been somewhat neglected has been placed on a new footing and will be played with the same vim and energy that has characterized Kansas' work in foot ball.
The out lock for baseball was never so bright as at the present time. Besides more men and more enthusiasm than formerly Manager Nichols has just arranged the best schedule that Kansas has ever had. The out of town schedule includes games with the best colleges in Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa and Illinois. On its trip east Kansas will play the University of Chicago in Chicago. This is the first time in the history of western baseball that a game has been secured with Chicago. This game is a boom to Kansas base ball. People in the east will find cut that Kansas has a University and that it plays base ball.
The big cut of town schedule includes the following games:
April 26, Washburn; April 27, St
M arys; April 27, afternoon, Manhattan
April 28, Nebraska, at Lincoln; April 30,
Highland Park, at Omaha; May 1, Cornell College, Mt Vernon, Ia;May 2, Dixon College; May 3, University of Chicago;
May 4, Knot College, Galesburgh, Ills;
May 5, Missouir, at Columbia. Besides the big trip the 'Varsity will play the Blues in Kansas City in May and Nebraska at Lincoln on Decoration day.
ADELPHIC LITERARY SOCIETY.
The home schedule is just as good as the out of town schedule. There will be in all ten games on the home ground. Beginning April 7 the Varsity meets the Indians, on the 17 the Blues will be here, and on the 21 Missouri, May 12 Washburn, May 22 Nebraska, June 5 is the date for the Alumni game. The exact dates for games with Ottawa, Baker, Manhattan and St. Marys are not set but the games will come for the most part in May.

The cabinets of the W Y C A and Y M C A entertained last week, the Seniors of t the University and the Faculty. This is the party which was postponed on account of the Phi Beta Kappa meeting.
The young women of the philanthropic committee gave a children's party last week, Saturday, for the boys and girls who attend the Industrial school which is under the care of the Associated Charities. The children enjoyed themselves hugely at games and story telling, and a light lunch was served them.
Saturday evening of last week the two committees of the Y M and Y W C A meet at the Y M C A house for an ensign party. T these committees are the new ones which have just been appointed at the beginning of this term, and the object of the evening was to put the members on a basis of better acquaintanceship, so that they may more easily work together. It was a very novel method of entertainment that was presented. The young men were all furnished with pennants of dark blue, needles, thimbles, and red embroidery floss. Each of the young women was appointed to teach some young man an embroidery stitch. This was a progressive game, and at each charge the young man learned a different stitch. When the evening was over a prize was presented to the one who proved the nearest "seamster," and another to the one who had mastered the greatest variety ofstitches.
The calling committee under Miss Anna White, is doing most faithful work. Last Thursday afternoon about twenty-five calls were made.
The devotional committee has prepared some very interesting and profitable meetings for the coming month.

Mr. Clock was a Capital carrier in Topeka and afterward established the "Clock route" in Lawrence, one of the best Capital routes in the state. He paid his way through K. U. by the sales of Capitals—four years—and saved $500 besides. Mr. Clock has been managing a paper route since going to Boston in addition to pursuing his studies in the theological school, not only for remuneration, but for the benefit to his health as well. -Topeka Capital.

NEBRASKA
WITHDRAWS
NOTICE SERVED UPON PRESIDENT
FONES THAT NEBRASKA UNI-
VERSITY IS NO LONGER A
MEMBER OF WESTERN
INTER -- COLLEGIATE
FOOTBALL LEAGUE.
Nebraska is However, Open for Dates with the Kansans.
THE LEAGUE WAS UNSATISFACTORY, IS THE REASON-
President K. P. Fones of the Western Intercollegiate Football League has received a letter from Wm K Hastings, secretary of the athletic board of Nebraska University stating that that institution has withdrawn from the league. The only reas on for this action is that the league has proven unsatisfactory. This league was organized several years ago and comprised the Universities of Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska and Kansas. Iowa was the first to withdraw, and since then, the three remaining members have held together. The withdrawal of Nebraska will break up the league. The letter states that Nebraska is anxious to arrange games individually with any of the colleges in the league for next season.
BURKE LITERARY SNOIETY
Mr Mosher discussed current events in an interesting manner.
Last Friday night at Burke, the followi-
ng program was rendered:
Affairs in Kentucky were discussed by Mr Hickson, who began with the beginning and gave a complete history of the whole affair.

Mr Wilson delighted the audience with his interesting reading. The society can usually count on something good from Mr Wilson.
Our new bulletin board is now in place in the main hall.
SNOW HALL NOTES

Mrs J G Wood of Tepka addressed the Biological Club last Tuesday on the "Abuses of Hypnoism." Her papers are to be printed in the Sheldon edition of the Capital and she wished to preface them by saying that they had been read before the club. Mrs Wood has made a study of the subject for several years. She especially attacked the methods of unscrupulous traveling hypnists.

LAWRENCE, KAN., MARCH, 10. 1900
Monday the tickets for the base ball season of 1900 go on sale. They will sell for $1.50. This may seem a little high, but it is not when the base ball situation is understood. There will be ten or eleven of the games on the home grounds. These games will cost from $3.50 to $3.00 unless the fan buy a ticket. Thus it is quite evident that the ticket is well worth the price. But this is only one side of the question. The 'Varsity' is at a big expense in base ball this year. We have never had a coach before, we have never had an eastern trip such as we have this year, no school in the West has ever secured a game with Chicago until Manager Nichols closed the contract the other day. All these things cost money and Kansas must stand up for her team. These games make the 'Varsity known, they give the school a good name, they bring base ball man to Kansas and tend to place the 'Varsity on a footing with the big colleges. Buy two tickets. You are more than getting your money's worth. Besides you are standing up for Kansas. Buy two ticke- and help make your alma mater a name among the big colleges. Buy two tickets and buy them right away so the association will have some money to go on. It takes ready cash to start the string off.
A western oratorical league has been organized, including at present only Minnesota and Nebraska. The movement originated with Minnesota and is certainly the initial step in the advancement of oratory among our western universities. A great deal more interest has been manifested in oratorical contests this year among the western schools than ever before, and an oratorical league is certainly commendable. Kansas has signified her intention of becoming a member of the league, and will no doubt be admitted. In that event there will be two representatives from each school who will take part in the contests.
Last week, Friday, there was a goodly number of students on the hill who were going to the station, if Baker and Ottawa came this way to the contest. Of course these gentleman did not want to do anything to the Methodist and the Baptists, they only wanted to show them a good time while they were in town. It was only the spirit of hospitality cropping out. Baker and Ottawa were so nice and polite and friendly to K. U. last year.
The echoes from the state oratorical contest are still reverberating through the college papers. Kansas university got second place. When it is taken into consideration that most of the other schools of the state would rather see
Kansas university defended than any other school and will do all they can to accomplish that end it will be realized that our institution did well. We might have done better but we are satisfied,
Mr. C. W. Meyers' oration on the Polley of Bismarck, was a mastery effort. It showed a great deal of careful study and hard work. Kansas University is proud of the success that awarded her efforts. It was a close contest for first place between Washburn and Kansas University, and it was very difficult to decide which was the winner. J. Frank Bell of Washburn, was, however, given first place. Washburn is to be congratulated upon her victory.
The withdrawal of Nebraska university from the Western Inter-collegiate football league is much to be regretted. This league as first organized was certainly a good thing. It insured at least two good games at each of the four universities comprising the league. These contests were true tests of merit because the teams were under the same restrictions at each school and all the games were played under the same regulations, why such a league of four adjourning universities can not be maintained, is strange indeed, but it has certainly proven a failure. The Nebraskan Hesperian in commenting upon the action of Nebraska university says
Nebraska can now feel that he is in no way compelled to play return games with other league teams in the same season. The section to withdraw from the western foot ball league taken at the last meeting of the athletic board is commendable in every way. Friendly relations can still exist with Kansas and Missouri and the expenses of a league be dispensed with.
We clip from the State Normal School
Oven the following sarcastic remark:
We clip from the State Normal School
Oven the following sarcastic remark:
The preachers of Lawrence have begun prescribing special sermons for the University people. This is a manifestation of the greatest heroic courage of the age. No doubt the good divines are in earnest, but such a stupendous undertaking evidences a lack of clear apprehension of the magnitude of the task of any reform or amelioration.
The editor seems to have a very bad opinion of the Kansas University but we attribute it to ignorance. We will wager our new hat against his old sky piece that there are more Kansas University students who attend church regularly than there are at the State Normal. Or to be more specific we will make the proposition that the editor of the Weekly has attended church oftener this year than the Oven man.
BASKET BALL.
The Varsity basket ball five met a defeat at Lincoln last week but won a game at Omaha. The team is all right and if it had a good gymnasium in which to work it could show us as strong a team as any. Basket ball can never be what it ought to be at Kansas University until this much needed gymnasium is built! What is true of basket ball is equally true of baseball and football.
K. U.-Normal Debate.
The Alpha Senate of the Normal has accepted the challenge of the Kent Club of the K U Law school, to a debate May 12. W E Lyon, J P Burion and R G Magill were elected last Saturday to represent the Normal. The debate will be held in Emporia and the question submitted by K U—State Normal Oven.

SOCIETY.
The mad whild of the past few weeks is over. With the coming of the Lenton season the rush of parties has ceased for a time. After the gayness of last week, a lull has settled down which is broken only by the mild pleasures of sleigh riding, beating and an occasional quiet card party. However, the sleigh rides of the past week have had all the wild joy which novelly can afford, and the two days of vacation given us through the kinky offices of this unusual fall of snow, have beea gladly welcomed, and put to the best of use in the enjoyment of those sports so unaccustomed, to Kansans.
Some of the Batas enterta and their girl friends at the Beta house last Saturday. Sidney Griggs and Ed Carroll were here from Leavenworth. The evening was spent in dancing, and time speed quickly to the rhythm of good music. Those present were Misses Hutchinson, Morse, Frazer Saxon; Moore, Morris, Graham, Leslie, Bulleen, Pugh, Cross and Rankin, and Messles, Chiles, Carroll; Griggs, Tobey, Bradford, Salles, House, Copley, Simpson, Nichols, Cross, Barnett and Adams.
The Theta Katsup last Saturday evening was given at Miss Louise Alder's. The girls were entertained by a series of pantomines. A sheet was stretched in the wide doorway between the two parlors and on this by shadows, were represented three stories: "Lord Ullin's Daughter," "A Jealous Man's Revenge" and "Lord Lovell" were enacted. After this a set of questions was given each girl. Each sentence was to be answered by some word beginning with "cat." Rachel Pugh passed this examination and was awarded the prize, a dainty little cup and saucer. Coffee and sandwiches were served.
In "The Little Minister" Tuesday evening there were two extensive line parties. About eighteen Sigma Chis occupied the dress circle of the parquet, while thirteen Thetas appeared in the second row of the balcony and a number of Phi Pais and Betas made up a box party.
Miss Lucy Chapman entertains seven tables at cards this evening for her friend, Miss Blanche Wakefield of Kansas City. It is a tourist party. The score cards are regular railroad tickets and are stamped with the name of the station to which each person is destined. These stations are represented by the tables, each of which bears a different name, and at each one a different game will be played', high-five, whist, seven-up, casino, hearts, euchre and grand. After a sufficiently long journey, there is a stop of "fifteen minutes for dinner," at the lunch counters arranged in the dining room. The prize is a very pretty picture, a graceful head framed in a narrow brass frame.
Mrs. O. P. Barber entertained at whist on Saturday afternoon of last week the active chapter of Theta girls. Her daughter Mrs. Gomer Thomas of Kansas City and Miss Lena Sutter of Abilene were the guests of honor. At the end of an afternoon of doubtful contest the score cards with their bows of black and yellow were examined and easily placed Miss Cora More the winner. Dainty refreshments were served. On Monday afternoon Mrs. Barber entertained the tow in Thetas who are no longer in the active chapter.
Last Saturday evening the Misses Ayres entertained delightfully a party of twelve at dinner. The occasion of this pleasant affair was the birthday of their brother Darwin Ayres. He, by the way, has the honor of being the youngest student in the University and this was his sixteen th milestone. Those present were Misses Mary Copley, Mary Spenser, Frederica Bullene, May Septen, Lucy and Elizabeth Ayres; Messrs, Sallee, Silver, Anderson, Adams, Parent and Ayres.
Last Friday night at Pythian hall the Sophomores gave their second party. It was highly successful, for everything was well arranged, and all pronounced it most enjoyable. There were no decorations, but the balcony was invitably arranged with couches and settees and cushions galore. There were card tables and various games for those who cared to make use of them. Then for the dancers there was excellent music furnished by Mr Newhouse with his mandolife, together with Osborne's orchestra. Punch and wafers were served throughout the evening. About fifty were present.
At the Unitarian church Thursday night under the auspices of the alumni Pi Phis was given the beautiful choral production, "In a Persian Garden." It was for the benefit of the Pi Phi scholarship. The music was rendered by Professor Farrel with Mr Runcie, tenor, Mrs Fullerton, soprano, Mrs Weakley, alto. They rendered the following program: "Oh Vision Entrancing," Mr. Runcie Duet "Ein Zweigsang," ("Meyer Hahmud") Mrs. Fullerton, Mr. Farrell; Song "Ga-
vote from Mignon" (Thomas) Mrs. Weakley, Song "Blow, Blow, Thou Winter Wind," (Sarjeant) Mr. Farrell; Song "The Swallow" (Del Aqua) Mrs. Fullerton. This was followed by the "Persian Garden." The words of Omar Khayam's beautiful poetry as translated by Fitzgarald are set to music by Liya Tehmann. This has been a very popular production in the east this winter. The music is excellent, and was well rendered Thursday evening, so that every one went t away highly pleased.
Some of the Phi Delt boys entertained their girl friends Thursday evening of last week at the Phi Delt house. The evening was passed at whist. A pretty feature of the evening was the score cards. They were done in pen and ink by one of the boys, decorated with the card spots, and tied with the fraternity blue and white. The honor prize was a box of marsh mallows with the colors.
The New York Herald is authority for the following figures, on the best educated state in the union, based on the number of pupils in attendance at the schools.
The Best Located State.
"Illinois leads the United States in learning. There are 23,787 students enrolled in the Sucker state.
"New York comes second. Kansas is third. Her figures are 13,007. The Keystone institutions hold 11,306 persons who are being familiarized with the higher forms. Ohio is close up. Her record for students of this class is 11,239. And then comes a point for the southerners. Tennessee stands fifth. They run to learning down in Dixie. Tennessee has 7,139 students to her credit. Missouri is sixth, with a showing of 6,531.
"So much for the higher education. Now try the same question as applied to the common schools. Where does the greatest per centage of enrolled scholars obtain? You might as well save yourses if the trouble of guessing. You would hardly pick it out in a dozen trials. Kansas, Bleeding Kansas. The home of the populist, the cyclone and the corn crop! Considered with regard to its total population, the enrollment in Kansas is really remarkable. The number of scholars of the public institutions are 370,240.
Following Kansas comes West Virginia, where the number of enrolled scholars is 236,188, which is 27.27 per cent of the population. And then comes Utah, where there are 70,878 scholars, a percentage of 26.75. And then comes Iowa, with a percentage of 26.31 and again Tennessee where 25.66 per cent of the population are enrolled scholars. Mississippi is sixth, with a percentage of 25.38 to her credit. Massachusetts has a percentage of only 15.93, and New York isn't much ahead of the bay state, for its figures are 17.56. Verily, there is more common school education in the west and the south than was dreamed of in the eastern philosophy."
Annual Fellowships for Women
Young women who rre intending to do graduate work will be interested in knowing that the Association of Collegiate Alumni consisting of over 2,000 women graduates from the leading universities and colleges in the United States encourage advanced study among college-trained women in a substantial way.
It has awarded annually for the past five years two fellowships of $330 and $500 respectively, the first for American and the second for European study.
The Woman's Educational association of Boston is working along the same lines and for 1900—1901 will give one fellowship of $450. ?
All women graduates of Kansas university are eligible to compete for these prizes.
One of these fellowships was held in 1894 by Prof Ida Hyde, and any young woman who contemplates doing graduate work would do well to try for one of those fellowships. Dr. Hyde would be glad to to give any further information concerning this matter. We hops to hear soon of some K. U. girl being a successful applicant. The fellowship offered for the coming year pays the tuition at Berlin university.

THE NEBRASKA TRIP.
THE 'VARSITY LOST AT LINCOLN AND
WON A HOTLY CONTESTED
GAME AT OMAHA.
HOW IT HAPPENED AT LINCOLN.
A Smoothly Polished Gymnasium Floor and a Very Fast Team Is the Whole Story.
Last Friday and Saturday the 'Varity has' ball he played with Lincoln and Omaha respectively on the Nebraskan's floors. The first game was a defeat and the second a victory. No one knows exactly what the score was at Lincoln Even Manager Russell has forgotten, but it was big. The little northerners tossed basket so fast that our men lost count and did not linger to find the score after the game.
The defeat is partly explained by the smooth gymnasium floor to which the 'Varsity five was not accustomed and partly to the fine work of the Lincoln five. The floor was such that our men were unable to start quickly and when started they could not stop. There is not much to be said about this game, says Manager Russell.
The game at Omaha was just a little different. The 'Varsity won the game by a score of 12 to 10.
The game was played on a floor that is more like the Lawrence floor and the Omaha five is not so fast as the five at Lincoln. In this game the 'Varsity men showed splendid form as they did not have an opportunity to wear themselves out the night before except perhaps, they were a little sore from bruises. Vandruff's work was good at Omaha. All the fellows were in the game from start to finish and the Omaha game was perhaps the most exciting game in which the 'Varsity has participated this year.
The boys were treated royally on the trip. At Lincoln they were entertained by the fraternities and at Omaha by the home five. They were greeted at both towns by good crowds and much enthusiasm. Capt. Owens was given a large bunch of roses after the Omaha game.
The Lincoln game was referred by Barnes of Omaha and umpired by Hasting of Lincoln and Dr Naismith of Kansas. The Omaha game Nelson of Omaha acted as referee and Manager Russell and Dr. Naismith as umpires
A waitress at Omaha overlooked Yahn,
and lost her job for not waiting on him.
The 'Varsity line up was the same for both games Vandruff and Shipman, forwards. H. Owens center, F. Owens and Yohn backs.
SOME INCIDENTS OF THE TRIP.
Russell and Dandruff were let at St. Joe while talking to some fair ones. By fast running they caught the train at the next station.
Shipman hae such a stiff neck Saturday night, from looking at Omaha's high buildings, that he could not throw goal.
Fred Owens, in search of excitement,
strayed forward to the smoker, while enroute.
The carjwas switched to a train bound for Chicago. When he discovered the mishap, he ran so fast to catch the Kansas City train that he faded the blue stripes in his foot ballcap.
Baumgartner, at an Omaha hotel, ordered a pleasant smile for desert and was ordered out of the house for flirting with the waitress, but by the assistance of Russell was enabled to fix matters up satisfactorily with both waitress and landlord.
Curry chewed up the official score card which accounts for its absence here.
After being shown through Nebraska's beautiful gymnasium, a handsome structure as large as Spooner library fitted with every appliance for the development of physical manhood, the boys were asked how it compared with ours. Some one aptly replied "We have none. All we

have at K U is a bath and a hole in the basement of Snow Hall where we have the privilege of storing our apparatus." AMUSEMENTS.
The amusement loving public demands something new and novel always and comedy is the undoubted craze of the present as in this form of amusement, when it is interspersed with up-to-date features, the public whim is gratified to a greater extent than in almost any other. Among the managers to recognize this fact were the Marx & Keich Company, who present this season one of the most unqualified successes ever recorded in the annuals of farce comedy. Their property is entitled "The Air Ship." It is written by Mr J M Gaites, one of the country's foremost writers in that line of work; it boasts of a plot that is simple yet wilful so unproactively funny that old and young alike are kept in a coddinal grin of expectation from the rise of the first until the 'all' of the final curtain. The singing is of a high grade, the choruses bright and catchy, and everything goes with a vim that is highly entertaining An efficient cast representing an unusual amount of talent has been engaged and special massive and picturesque scenery for the entire three acts is carried by the management. An opportunity of seeing this meritorious comedy will be given next Monday evening at the opera house. Regular house prices will prevail and the advance sale of seats opens Saturday.
"ArIZona," the new play by Augustus Thomas the author of "Alabama," is to be seen in Lawrence March 21st. The excellent company which will appear in it, is under the direction of Mr. Kirke LaShelle, who is also proprietor of the Frank Daniels opera company, and Mr. Fred R. Hamlin, business manager of the Grand opera house, Chicago. "ArIZona" wa given its initial production in Mr. Hamlin's theatre on June 12th, and achieved the unparalleled triumph of running for four consecutive months to enormous business.
Graduate Club.
The Graduate club met for organization last Monday. The club is to be heartily congratulated on the large attendance at the meeting and the interest shown. K.U, needs an active society of graduate workers and they, in turn, have many more opportunities by being organized.
The business transacted was the election of officers. Professor Blackmar was made honorary president. The following regular officers were elected; president, J K Klatz; secretary, Eloise Abel; treasurer D E McFarland; executive committee, Misses McCrory, Henderson and Warren, Messrs. Bright, Kane and Rogers.

DR. A. SMITH WOODWARD TO VISIT US.
Will Come Here from England in May to Examine the Kansas University Collection of Fossils.
Word has just been received that Dr A Smith Woodward, one of the most noted of European paleontologists and director of the natural history department of the British Museum, will pay a visit to the University of Kansas in May for the purpose of examining the museum of paleontology. This collection of fossils has be come noted the world over, and during the past five or six years has been visited by every noted paleontologist of this country. There are but three collections in America that surpass it in extent, and in certain departments it is unrivalled in the world. That a European scientist should take the trouble to come to Kansas in order to examine it, certainly indicates the reputation it has obtained in foreign countries. Unfortunately its growth has been checked seriously in the last few years on account of insufficient means to continue the work as it should be. No more serviceable work could be undertaken by some man of means than the sustaining and improving of what might easily become in a few years one of the most noted and important museum of fossils in the world.
Two literary societies in the colleges at accompton debated in German a few days ago, the question, 'Resolved, That the ow is better than the horse.'

The northern part of the exhibition ground is occupied by a square about 500 feet from east to west and 350 feet from north to south. The buildings bounding three sides of this square and the arrangement of the square itself have been given to Messrs. Babb, Cook and Willard of New York, and the style adopted—a very free version of Spanish architecture—has suggested the name of the plaza, which has been given it. The central portion of this square is occupied by a terrace only very slightly raised above the surface of the square, and surrounding a sunken garden, in the middle of which is a bandstand. The terrace as well as the garden itself will afford a large space for listeners who attend the concerts which it is proposed to give.

Football in the Olden Time
In the year 1583 a Puritan, named Philip Stobbes, published a book in which he describes football as then played in a manner which is to us both quaint and amusing, but which shows the games in its practices and consequences to have been unchanged by the passing of over 300 years. Master Stubbles thus discourseth:
"Now who is so grossly blind that seeth not that these aforesaid exercises not only withdraw us from godliness and virtue, but also haile and we can wickedness and sin? For as concerning football playing I protest unto you that it may rather be a friendlie kind of fygthe than a play or recreation—a bloody and furthering practice than a felowly sport or pastime. For dooth not every one live in weight for his adversarie, seeking to overthrow him and picke him on his nose, though it be uppon hard stones, in ditch or dale. in valler or hill, or whatever place soever it be he careth not, so he hee have him dowe; and he that can serve the most of this fashion he is counted the only fellow, and who he?…… So that by this means sometimes their necks are broken, sometimes their backs, sometimes their legs, sometimes their arms, sometimes their noses gush out with blood, sometimes their eyes start out, and sometimes hurte in one place, sometimes in another. But whosoever scapeth away the best goeth not scot free, but is either forewounded, caried, or bruised, so as he dyeth of it or else scapeth very hardier; and no marvaille, for they have the sleights to meet one betwixt two, to dash him against the hart with their elbows, to hit him under the short ribs with their griped fists and with their knees to catch him on the hip and picke him on his neck, with a hundred such murthering devices."

K. U. VS. MISSOURI.
PRELIMINARIES BELD LAST FRIDAY
NIGHT AND TOLAN, RICE AND
BOTTS CHOSEN TO REP-
RESENT K. U. ON
APRIL 13.
MUCH ENTHUSIASM MANIFESTED-
All Three of the Successful Orators Are Members of the Law School.
At the preliminary debate, held Friday,
March 10, Messrs Trolan, Botts and Rice
were chosen to represent Kansas in the
debate against Missouri.
The contest was a good one and Kansas will be well represented. The three gen men chosen have all had experience in debating in various literary societies.
The first speaker, Mr. Flint is a new man. He had a good speech but was lacking in enthusiasm. He will improve with practice.
Mr. Hose held the attention of his audience with his oratoral delivery. He opposes the colonial policy in general, as it would violate the Monroe doctrine. Our country cannot maintain slavery, he said, in one port and full citizenship in another. Mr. Hose was chosen a substitute in case either of the regular debaters should be unable to continue.
Mr. Curry showed great reading on the subject and bad the question well in hand.
Mr. Tolan is peraps the best speaker.
He speaks with energy and enthusiasm.
He possesses true oratorial ability. Combined with this was an excellent speech.
Mr Tolan appeared well on the program.
Mr Rice spoke ur on the constitutionality of the retention and proved by citation from the supreme court that the United State possesses the right to retain the islands. He had an excellent speech and good logic.
Mr Parks spoke upon the commercial advantages of rentention. He showed evidences of careful preparation.
Mr. Livers spoke with ease, with experience and improvement in position, he will make a good speaker.
Mr. Halcomb spoke upon the cost of governing the islands by soldiers.
Mr. Botts compared the English colonial policy with that of America and after carefully weighing the question decided that America should do as England has done, in order to maintain her supremacy in the Pacific. Mr. Botts is an energetic, fiery speaker and can hold the attention of his audience.
Miss Walton furnished music for the occasion.
It is worthy of notice that all three of the speakers are law students. A number of laws were cut to encourage their fellow classmates by their presence and voices.
The Junior and Senior mechanical engineers will visit Leavenworth about the middle of next month. They will study manufacturing and power plants but will eive e. pecial attention to foundry work.
ENGINFERING DEPARTMENT NOTES.
The Armour Packing company of Kansas City recently bought two 400 horse power generators of the Warren Manufacturing company of Cincinnati. The machines were designed by Prof.Carr who was with the Warren company until he became an instructor in our engineering school. The Armour company accepted Prof Carr's design's after searching the whole market.
Many of the Junior mechanical engineers have positions for the summer in their line of work. Prof. Palmer is trying to place the boys in such work because of the training they get in the practical side of their work.
The Sigma Xi will meet at [Prof. Bailey's home next Monday evening. Prof. McMeans will be initiated during the evening, and possibly the names of other candidates will be considered.
Atchison Globe: "The Mandolin Club of the State Normal school at Emporia has been engaged to play at a hotel in Manitou all summer. There are other musical clubs which the people will be equally glad to see get out of the state."
A letter from Jim Snyder, A B,'97,says he has a good position in a gold mine at Elkton, Colorado.

BASE BALL ENTHUSIASM.
INCREASES DESPITE THE COLD WEATHER, THE SNOW AND THE LACK OF INDOOR QUARTERS.
THE TICKETS ARE SELLING
And the schedule Is Being Rapidly Completed. There is a Possible Game With the Indians Next Saturday.
Monday and Tuesday the men were out in force on McCook field. There was a lot of them and a lot of mighty fast material. Everybody acknowledges that the 'Varsity will have a faster team than ever before. Among the twirlers are Hall Alpinb and Malbaty. They are all showing up well. Wade Moore, the favorite of last year's team will again do the work behind the bat. This assures a good battery, which is a great part of the eleven Housh the old second baseman, is working out again; as is Poorman at short.
Frebert and Tucker are trying for first; both are old men and either will fill the place well. Captain Farent will play third unless one one beats him out.
Barnett, Curry, Wolfe, Whitelaw, Hassleman, McKenna, McKeen, Reid and Owens are trying for the out garden Owens has never worked out here, but the fellows say he has a field in his vest pocket.
Gear was to have come down Thursday but there was too much snow and cold wind. Manager Nichols expects to have the coach once or twice a week during the early part of the season.
The Missouri and the Nebraska games are creating a great deal of interest. Nebraska has a good gymnasium and has been working out for about six weeks as has also Missouri, but the 'Varsity eleven expects to win on account of its superior material and the aid of Coach Gear.
There has been a good sale of base ball tickets but it has not been as large as it should have been. The section needs ready cash. The schedule has been perfected, and at least ten good games are offered for $1.50. The tickets will be on sale until the beginning of the season. Why does not every one buy right away and help the thing along?
By all odds the most puerile and unreasonable complaint that one hears from literary workers is that the more obvious and inviting themes have all been worked threadbare and that one in search of originality must go to the improbable and bigrear. This is far from being absolutely true of any literatures; in this country the complaint is, on the face of it, absurd,
An Undeveloped Field for Literature.
Probably no profession but that of the clergyman has been treated in American fiction with any degree of adequacy. The physician's has not; the newspaperman's has not.
But of all the professions, the richest in unworked literary material is probably that of the law. One could easily over estimate the debt which the whole great scheme of the Comedie Humaine owes to the brief period of his early life, which Honore de Balzac spent in the office of a notary. It was there that he got at the very heart of modern life. There he learned the meaning of money, not in its vulgar sense, but as a great moving and working factor and force in human society. That period was brief, but then and there was laid the foundation upon which the whole fabric of the comedi was raised stone by stone. It is between the lives of the lawyer's brief that much of the real romance of the future will be found. A well known sociological writer with whom we recently discussed the subject, suggested that in the history of the New York bar there was enough material to furnish a different plot to every man and woman who aspire to write a novel.

The Haskell work, under Miss Goodnight's supervision, is progressing well. Some of the girls of the Haskell committee go out every Sunday to the meeting there, and help with the work. The girls at Haskell show great interest in the work and have very successful meetings. Last Sunday evening the meeting was led by one of the Haskell girls, and was well attended. The girls there have taken a pledge to attend all the meetings unless prevented by illness or something very important.
Miss Agnes Radford, the state secretary of the Y W C A expects to be with the association next Wednesday a d Thursday.
The Y W meeting Wednesday was led by Miss Stafford, as Miss Oliver was it. It was in the German room and proved very interesting.

Special music will be rendered at the Y. W. meetings every Wednesday just at 5 o'clock. Some excellent musical programs have been prepared and the girls expect by this to make the meetings more enjoyable.
The deaconess circle met last Monday evening in room 14.
Mr. Yale is doing some work on his Senior thesis that deserves notice. He is trying to derive a formula to use in designing ball bearings for machinery. There is no satisfactory formula now in use, and no uniformity of design. Each individual designer uses his own judgment and arrives at a result mostly from experiment. Mr. Yale is carrying on a series of experiments to demonstrate the correct formula to use. He has designed and constructed a special piece of apparatus for use in his experiments.

WARENCE, KAN , MARCH, 17, 1900
The editor of the Baker Orange, after
responding the account of the state oratorian
contest published in the WEEKLY, and
recalling the small number of loyal Kansas University students who were at the contest, takes a shot at K. U. in the following manner:
From the K. U. WEEKLY we would infer that Baker's orange badges at the contest were mistaken for quarantine sigma. The perception of the Jawhawk-crust have been very obtuse to have arrived at such a conclusion, but perhaps that was the reason the K. U. delfens made themselves so so scarce. As yet we haven't had even a scare, than k students nor have we been obliged to send homes to nurse vaccinated arms.
The interest manifested in the preliminaries which were held last week, to select orators for the Missouri-Kansas debate, was very gratifying. It was feared that the best orators would try for the Colorado and Nebraska debates, because a very pleasant trip is included in those contests, but such was not the case. Polan, Rice and Butts, the three orators selected, are all good men and will represent Kansas University creditably. The representatives from Missouri have already been selected. This debate will be held here at Bowersock's Opera house April 13, and a good crowd should turn out.
It is rather hard to tell whether Kanba can play basket ball or not. After the overwhelming defeat received here the team went to Omaha and on the following evening defeated the Omaha Y M @A. Either our team has improved won ferfully since the Omaha team played here, or the Kansans took a decided brace in the twenty-four hours between the games,—Nebraska, Hesperian.
It certainly is quite a co-incidence, but we have been wondering whether Nebraska can really play basket ball on an ordinary floor. We understand that the Warship team forfeited a return game to Omaha rather than play at that place, which seems to indicate conclusively that Nebraska depends upon the unusually thick floor to help win her games. There apparently no glory in that way of playing basket ball or anything else.
The Emporia College Life takes occasion to make some very uncompilimentary remarks about the Kansas university collegates which we refrain from repeating. In the same column it mentions a certain student of that college who was very nearly laid up on account of having some visitors the town, which proudly tells its own story. Such insinuations as the Life makes are too low down for us to stoop to, and we refrain from answering them. They are below our dignity. Kansas University collegates are as orderly and gentle
mainly as those from any other school. The College of Emporia may be a Christian college as the Life says, but the Life is certainly a poor representative of a Christian college. No respectable paper would resort to mud slinging as the Life does, but it certainly reflects more on the management of the paper than on anyone else.
The Emporia Owen gives on account of the preparations being made at the State Normal to put a strong foot ball team in the field next season. It is proposed to establish a training table and secure a coach. Bennie Owens our popular little quarter back is mentioned for that place. He certainly knows the game and we are confident he would make a good coach.
The Washburn Review in its last issue printed the following:
The Kansas University Weekly seems to find some satisfaction and cause for comment in the three defeats of our basket ball team. However as the remaks were written before the K U, game with Nebraska university, we can overlook them. In this game last Friday Nebraska snowed K U, under to the tune of 48 to 8, and if we remember correctly the Haskell Indians and the Kansas City Y. M. C. A. teams were hardly less lenient towards the K U. athletes. In view of these facts our K U. friends should be willing to "stand hitched" for a while.
The Review man's memory is certainly at fault in regard to the Haskell Indians defeating the Jayhawkers. Kansas university won both games from the Indians. In regard to the Nebraska game we have nothing to say. No one seems to know exactly what the score was, or how it all happened. It will probably go down into history as one of the "unexplainable mysteries."
An Eighteenth Century Battle.
Prof. Jones announced the other day that he expected to have a class of poets, who, no doubt, would win laurels and lasting fame. The following is written in anticipation of the battle, with all due apologies to Mr. Dryden or any one else who seems to consider that his realm has been invaded.
The world has often trembled in ahrigh,
T know a Buonaparte and feel his might.
To crown the greatest heads, we will
carve:
The weak, though large, must ever bend the knee.
A hundred years have marshalled up their hosts.
And moved the world, then gathered with the ghosts;
Since he, the bard, with mighty words of rhyme
Did lead the hundred against the hordes of time.
The chords were struck on harps with golden strings.
The cry of war the world then beard still rings.
The march was measured in majestic feet;
And clash of arms was rythmic in its beat.
The battle waged from early morn till eve,
And not a bird the battle line would leave
Till he, a foe had slain and gained a
crown:
The world shall hear the music of your song.
And hall, the monarch in his triumphant
Long live and crown him with the bright
O hall, ye army of the bards so strong!
The world shall hush, the music of joy.

Come and Be Convinced.
The first three members of the Life Work course have demonstrated the great value to be gained by all who attend. Capt Haskell spoke words of wisdom along the line of what general principles should govern a young man in his choice of any life work; this proved a most fitting opening for the successive numbers of the course. Chancellor Snow spoke on "The Christian Man in Science," and so magnified his calling as to disclose great opportunities in this department of life, which are continually overlooked when one views the life of a scientist.
Y. M. C. A. NOTES
There were 120 men to hear Superintendent Frank Nelson as he so strongly portrayed the wonderful possibilities in the life of a teacher who is a Christian man. The association has been fortunate in securing men of so great ability to take part in their series of talks, and will continue the course after the spring vacation.
Hon. Thomas M. Potter of Peabody has consented to be present on the occasion of the annual banquet on April 7 and respond to a toast.
The plans for the banquet are being matured in a most satisfactory manner and the outlook for a successful event is most gratifying. Among those who will respond to toasts are Des. Willison and Naimshim.
The nominating committee has held several meetings and will report at the service tomorrow afternoon.
State Secretary Baird visited the local work Wednesday.
The statistical report of the association is out this week.
The editorial of "The Students Herald," in last week's issue, makes a plea for the introduction of manners among the farmers of the State Agricultural College. It would be a good thing. The students should follow the plans suggested by the "Herald."
COLLEGE NOTES.
The editor of "The High School Sentiment," labels his editorial column "editorial gabble," while in reality his editors are quite good and far above the usual high school editorial.
"The Tiger," published at Colorado College, is a handsome paper printed by the students. It has the picture of a surly, crouching tiger on its front page.
The battalion of Iowa university made a nice showing and yelled pretty well though it was pretty muddy, says the editor of the Vidette Reporter, when it greeted the general assembly.
"Echoes" of the Joplin high school says that the "Oven" of Emporia is rather "warm." If the "Oven" would do the courtious thing now it should speak of the reverberations.
The Daily Cardinal of the University of Wisconsin, is occasionally sensational and runs headers "just like a big daily."
The Ottawa Campus is perhaps the handsomest college paper in Kaasas. It does not copy many exchanges from the WEEKLY either.
Last week the College Life published a statement showing the college football manager had 'raked off' about $75.
The editor of the Washburn Review says that oratory is improving. In the eight orations this year, the fall of Rome is not mentioned once and hardly hinted "glory."
The Central Collegian published at Payette, Mo., is a near approach to a real magazine.
There will be a union song service Sunday afternoon by the Y M and Y W C A,
at North College at 2:30 p.m.
Visitors registered this week: Miss Bessie Bates, Topeka; Mrs A D Havenhill, Fay, Ill.; Mrs J F Beaman, Sterling; E G S Jamison, Washington; D C; F S Tucker, Cawker City; £ C Koons, Sterling; L G Higgins, Stockton.
Ed Mechem was out of school several days this week on account of chills and fever.
Fred Stocks, M.S., '84, is a candidate for re-election to the state senate this fall.
James May, the son of Dr. W. V. May, who lived in Lawrence for many years, has been appointed assistant surgeon in the United States regular army, and will leave for the Philippines April 2. "Jimmie"May, as he is known in Lawrence was graduated from Kansas university, then went to Philadelphia, where he took a course in the university of Pennsylvania medical school, and since his graduation he has been doing hospital work. His many friends here will be glad to learn of his advancement, and hope that he will be able to stop here on his way to his new assignment.
The life ambition of Gail Nichols is realized at last. His name is signed to a report of the city council proceedings in the Sheldon edition of the Topeka Capital. —K C Star.
SOCIETY.
Wednesday night in Heymat's hall the Zendas gave their second annual "Bohemian" for their lady friends. The affair, as its name indicates, was very informal. At frequent intervals during the evening, dancing was suspended and Newhouse and Kollis entertained in their innitable style with trick banjo and mandolin work, and dialect songs. At 12 o'clock, souvenirs of the occasion were distributed. During the entire evening lunch and lemonade were served. Those entertained are Misses Jaadieck, Turner, Snyder, Loedy, Taylor, Fischer, Kalley, Piatt, Robinson, Morgan, Gehring and Boilline.
EASY CHAIR COMPOSITION.
Advanced English Compa sition Class.
No, dear Flossie, the boys are not obliged to take you to parties and to the theatre, as you infer. When they do take you to parties it is not because they are obliged to do it, but because they wish to. I hope my dear little girl has not given any of the boys to think that she has a right to expect them to show her a good time, because she has no right to expect that of them, as most you girls do. If they do show you around, you are under obligations to them, and not they to you.
And now, my dear Flossie, here is a little personal advice. If you wish the boys to show you around, you must in turn do something for them, just to show that you appreciate their kindness, and that you are a good fellow. I would suggest that after the party or theatre, instead of your going to some little hole in the wall for refreshments, you ask them to your own home for a little spread that you have fixed up before you want. Don't you think that would be more reasonable than to expect them to take you to the party and then to refresh you at the lunch counter too? Too many of my girl friend think that the boys are 'easy' and that as long as they have got a "fish," they might as well work things to a finish. But I am sure my dear Flossie is to much of a lady to think that.
You say you had never seen a hack until you came to Lawrence. There are 300 more in the University who never did either.
But Flossie, you shock me when you inadvertantly remarked that you wore your old party dress to the last party and yet that you expected your company to send a hack for you because there was snow on the ground, and the weather was cold. Don't you think that your old party dress that cost you 39 cents a yard two years ago, would have very illly graced a hack? And yet you wonder that he neglected to pay $1.50 for a hack to take a $1.99 dress to a party which had already cost him $1.50, including refreshments. Last year one of my girls wrote to me concerning a similar case. I can do no better than to advise you as I did her—wear better dresses to the parties and then you can expect your company to send a hack for you when the weather is bad. I am sure the K. U. boys would be ashamed to walk a nice dress to a party on a bad night. I am always proud to help my girls at any time they may be perplexed, but I do wish they would use a little more common sense and reason be fore telling me their troubles.
Yours in haste,
A Osaundrum.

The Universities of France.
The Universities of France.
The French department is in receipt of a catalogue issued by the Franco-American committee for the purpose of stating clearly to American students the advantages to be derived from attending French Universities.
Through the efforts of Harry J. Furber of Chicago, the Franco-American committee was led to see the advisibility of offering special inducements to American students. Mr Furber for a number of years studied at German Universities; travelling through France he was impressed with the high character of its Universities, and could not help but wonder why there were so few American students there, while the number at the German Universities was so great.
The American goes to trance to study art, but for literature and sciences he goes to Germany because the inducements have herefore been greater.
furthermore. On account of cheaper living, smaller classes and better opportunities for becoming acquainted, the students are recommended to attend the smaller universities at Lyon, Toulouse, Bordeaux and Grenoble, rather the University of Paris. Summer courses are offered at the universities of Paris, Caen, Clermont, Greenteble and Nancy.
the universities of France now offer the doctor's degree to Americans and also have formed summer schools.
The cost of living in France is not great.
One may live well in Paris for $40 a month and in the provinces living is still cheaper.
The Messageries Martinians, and the Trans-Atlantic companies make a reduction of thirty per cent on the fares of American students going to France. To obtain this reduction an application must be made to the corresponding secretary, who will take the necessary steps to procure it. Of course the application must be made some time before beforehand.

THE OREAD.
That the University has come to be a great institution is no better evidenced than by the demand for a Kansas University Alumni Magazine that has been manifested of late years. A university with more than 1,500 alumni and a graduating class of more than 200 each year, requires some kind of publication to keep the alumni in touch with their Alma Mater, and with each other.
Do this is the mission of "The Oread," Vol 1, No.1, of which appeared last Monday. It will be published on the first of each month hereafter during the entire year. In the March number there are 32 pages of reading matter, of which ten are devoted to Alumni notes, each class that has ever left KU. U being represented. This is the really valuable part of the magazine and will always be made the special feature.
In the contents are found the following: "The Chancellors," half-tones of our five Chancellors; "The Five Chancellors"; by Alumni; "The Protest of a Timid Muse"; by H. Foster Jones; "My Daughter, Miss Ruth," an excellent story by May Hotkissk Spencer, 94. "A Fraternity Pin," by Miss Estelle Riddle; "Wm., Pollock in the Studio," by Miss Mary E Riddle; "A Locust Song", with a full page etching, by Syd-Prentice, 90, and Alumni notes. The following is taken from the announcements: "Alumni are requested to co-operate in the publication of this magazine, by promptly contributing their subscriptions, and any library material or information concerning themselves or other Alumni which they consider appropriate."
All signs indicate immediate and lasting success. The first, number of "The Oread" contains twenty-five full pages of advertising matter, and has a circulation of 1,000.
"The Oread" staff is as follows: Editor-in-chief, Geo H Rising; '98; University editor, May Holdkiss Spencer; '94; business manager, Ed S Lidson. 00

TRALTO: MISS EMILY PAR-
SONS, PIANISTE.
At the Bowersock Opera House March27.
Max Bendix is far too well-known a musician, violinist, concert-meister and conductor to need any lengthy introduction to the musicloving public. His appearance in one or the other of the above capacities in nearly every city of prominence in the United States renders such an introduction superfluous, although it might not be amiss to call attention to a few of the more notable events in his career as a violinist which has been one of remarkable brilliancy and rapid ad vence.
Mr. Bendix first position of prominence was that of concert-meister of Van der Stucken's orchestra in New York (1888), later holding the same position with the German opera. While occupying this latter position, Mr. Theodore Thomas' attention was called to Mr. Bendix, who at this time, although only 20 years of age, had attracted the attention of the orchestral musicians in the east by his exceptional talent as a sight-reader and as an orchestral and solo violinist. Mr. Thomas, being at that time in search of a concert-meister, sent for Mr. Bendix, and after hearing him play, immediately engaged him to fill the exalted position of concert-meister of the Theodore Thomas Orchestra, as it was then called, a position which he held from 1886 to 1896, the last five years of which he also affiliated as assistant conductor.
During the summer of 1892 Mr. Bendix conducted a series of orchestra concerts in Chicago, which extended over a period of six weeks, with high artistic results. During the following summer he assisted Mr. Thomas as conductor of the Exposition orchestra at the World's Fair, consisting of 114 artists, selected from the ranks of the leading orchestral players of the world. Since severing his connection with the orchestra, Mr. Bendix has been able to devote himself exclusively to solo playing and is now acknowledged by musicians everywhere to stand at the head of our American violinists.

through the heat of summer time, to crowded houses. All students of the drama are well aware of the fact that Mr. Thomas beyond any other playwright, must be given the credit for the basic structure of the American drama—that institution of which tremendous things are hoped and expected by the judicious student of arts and letters. In "Arizona" he has chosen work, field, and material peculiar to his tastes and abilities, for Thomas is a western man, born and bred, and writes best and brightest of those things of which he knows intimately and absolutely. The scenes of "Arizona" are laid about the army post, Fort Grant and Canby's ranch, in the Araviapa valley. The people are a sturdy ranchman, his buxom, fiery-tempered and big-hearted wife; their pretty, tomboy daughter, Bonita; their elder daughter who has become the wife of a colonel of cavalry; that colonel, Bonham by name; sturdy officers of his command and a number of soldiers—the ordinary folk of any Arizona center of civilization. There is a strong love story in the play and elements which are both tragic and meltdramatic. But "Arizona" is not a tragedy, nor a melodrama. The strong comedy elements saves it from either of these classifications. It would seem that Mr. Thomas has had a wealth of excellent colorful material to his hand, and people who have seen and admired the deftness of his work in "Alabama" and "In Mizzoura" will not doubt that he has woven from the weft and woof of scenes and atmosphere, an attractive dramatic fabric. The scenic investiture by Buridge and Ritter, and costuming supervised by Frederick Remington, are said to be elaborate and correct. The company engaged for the production includes many notable names, among them Eleanor Robson, Ethel Harrison, Theodore Roberts Vincent Serrano, George Nash, Adora Andrews, Edwin Holt, Mattie Earle, Edgar Selwyn, Malcolm Gunn, Jane Taylo Stephen French, Lionel Barrymore ant Sidney Ainsworth.

Though he had not spoken.
His hands quick pleasure in the dance.

She waited for the story old As she had read it,
But through his eyes the legend told
he never said it!
He sang to her in verses sweet,
His accents sued her;
On smooth yacht decks all golden glow,
where starlight blended.
He played the banjo at her feet,
In rag-time wooed her;
Where the lights were low and tender looks
She led him into quiet nooks
On stairs, demurely
Till she began to think him slow As well as splendid!
She steered his geniy for the dim Conservatory;
And when the band robbed some deep

---O--given overin Kansas City, Mo. It was in charge of the ladies of the Athenaeum and was given in their hall, in the Pepper building. A small but attentive audience greeted the club and the members realized that it was the most critical they had yet faced. But with the little practice they had had, the program was very well rendered.
TIGERS 21; K. U. 15.
THE JAYHAWKERS BEATEN THE SECOND TIME BY THE KANSAS CITY CHAMPIONS.
IT WAS A VERY FINE CONTEST.
Funk Threw Eight Goals for the Tigers.
F. Owens Played the Star Game
for K. U. but They All Did
Some Good Work.
The Kansas City Tigers won again last Friday by a score of 21 to 12, but it was a hard fought victory. One of the officials said after the game that it was the best game that the Tigers had participated in this season.
The work of both teams was fast. Funk of the Tigers was the star of the game and his goal throwing was phenomenal. Eight of the ten goals that his team scored were thrown by him, and some of them were very difficult. Ricksecker ond Ashley also put up a very good game.
The honors of the K U team belong to F. Owens, who threw three goals and did good work in passing and defensive play. Manager Russell went into the game last night for the first time this year, and did excellent work, throwing a difficult goal from the field and participating in many quick passes. Dandruff played a fast game at forward and Yahn put us his usually strong defensive back, but Funk was too tall for him to buck effectively.
Capt H Owens played a good game at center and got into the different plays in his usual manner. He also threw a difficult goal.
This will probably be the last basket ball game of the season, as Omaha has decided not to come here as was at first intended. Omaha proposed a trip including Kansas City and Lawrence. Besides K-U. a game was to have been played with the Haskell Indians, but Manager Russell has received word that the trip has been given up.

THE GLEE CLUB TRIP.
The;Glee club, after many futile attempts to arrange dates, finally made the trip to Olathe and Kansas City last week. So much time had elapsed since the Lawrence entertainment that the boys were somewhat out of practice, but they made a good showing, nevertheless.
Two Concerts Given at Kansas City and
Concerts Given at Kansas
One at Oliathe to appreciative
Audiences.
Good reports must have preceded the club to Olathe, for almost all the seats were sold before the doors were opened. The audience was an appreciative one; the boys' were made to feet at home, and they carried out the program in their old time form. x
After the concert a dance was given in honor of the members of the club. A few of the leading society young men provided the girls and then sacrificed their own pleasure for the entertainment of their guests. The spirit manifested reminded the boys of the reception tendered them at Cofebyville.
On the following day two concerts were given in Kansas City. The first was a noon engagement at the Kansas City, Kansas, High School. The assembly room was filled with High School students, who seemed very much delighted with the entertainment, and especially with the coon songs and ragtime. The program was varied to suit their tastes and encores were frequent. So frequent, in fact, were the encores that the curtain had to be finally rung-down in order to let the boys go to dinner.
In the evening the final concert was
Mr. Frank House took part in the program in place of Mr.Warkentin, and sang two solos which were well received.
Another ovalation in the way of a dance, was given the boys after the concert and all participated. The dance hall was beautifully decorated in K. U. colors and refreshments consisting of punch, orange ice, and cake was served throughout the evening. Every one was a committee of one to see that the K U men had a good time, and so far no complaints have been registered.
This was a fitting close to the series of concerts given by the K U Glee Club of '90-'oo. The boys all appreciate the treatment they have received throughout the State and they cannot but feel that they have done credit to their University. It is not likely that any further trips will be made this spring.
the Annual Banquet on April 7th—Gov-
ernor Stanley Toastmaster.
EVENT OF THE YEAR IN Y. M. G. A.
The steg banquet will be the greatest event of the year this eventful year of the Y. M. C. A.
Govaner Stanley will act as toast master and among those who have already consented to respond to toasts are Dr. S W Williston. Hon. E L Ackley, Rev. W. G.Banker and Hon. Thomas Potter, president of the state board of agriculture.
The banquet is in honor of the new officers of the association and will be a "starter" for the new association year, which promises to be even more successful than the past year.
A large number of the alumni will be present and on the Sunday following the alumni members will have entire charge of the afternoon meeting. The presence of these alumni and of the distinguished guests of the association as well as the elaborate dinner and general good fellowship and enthusiasm will make this occasion one of the happiest times in a college course. The banquet will be given in library hall at 6:30 Saturday evening. April 7.
Ed Copley, manager of the Glee Club will have charge of the music.
The committee for arrangements have shown tact in selling tickets for the banquet instead of taking the money from the treasury of the association.
There is no direct appropriation in the budget for such affairs and the association is saved all possible criticism by letting those who want a banquet, pay for it. Tickets can be obtained from any of the "boys of the Y. M. C. A, house" and from Baumgartner, Myers, Gardner, Filkin and Funk.

K.U. VS. COLORADO
PRELIMINARY TO SELECT THREE ORATORS FOR THE KANSAS-COLORADO DEBATE HELD LAST WEEK.
ELEVEN CONTESTANTS TOOK PART.
It Was a Close Contest.-Davis, Hyatt. and Mowry, the Successful One
Ones.
The preliminaries to select orators for the Kansas-Colorado debate which will take place at Boulder, Colo., April 22, were held last week Friday. Only a small audience was present, not nearly as many as the merits of the speakers deserved. About half of those present were law students.
There were eleven contestants and it was a close contest. The three successful ones, were Gee L. L. Davis of Springhill, W. S. Hyatt of Labette county and C. Mowery of Wichita. Hyatt is an old speaker. He was one of those who 'showed' Missouri how to debate last year. He also won a close second in the university oratorical contest this year and carried off the honors last spring. He is perfectly at home on the stage and will be a worthy representative of the school.
Mowery is a new man, this being his first year in the University, but he will make a fine orator. He has a good voice and uses it well.
Davis is a member of the senior law class and is a diligent student. He is a leading member of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity, and the WERLY is proud to include his name on its editorial staff. He is a deep thinker, as his oration indicates. He is easy in his delivery and his gestures are natural and effective. He is certain to figure conspicuously in oratorical contexts hereafter.
The question for this debate will be "Resolved, that the United States senators should be elected by popular vote." It is not yet known what side Kansas will take.
The judges Friday, were Messrs Innes, Weaver and Caldwell. Prof. Vickrey acted as chairman.
Y. W. C. A. NOTES.
The visit of Miss Radford, who is state secretary of the association, has been of great help to the work here. Miss Radford was here on Tuesday and Wednesday, and gave the young women helpful suggestions. She met with the members of the several committees, talked over with them their work and plans, and showed them what is being done in many other places. Miss Radford brings much enthusiasm and determination into the work, and her help is an inspiration to all Association girls.
Miss Radford led the meeting of the Y. W. C. A. Wednesday evening It was held in the chapel as usual, and there was a large attendance. About seventy girls heard her pleasant talk on "Sweetness and Confidence." Her text was chosen from Isaiah 30:15; "For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel. In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength." Miss Walton sang a very pretty solo.
The next meeting of the association will be during vacation, and as many of the girls will probably be away, the regular form of service will be done away with. There will be a song service only, conducted by the music committee, who have prepared special music for the occasion.
Miss Henderson's Bible class met Thursday afternoon in the Woman's league room at the Library. Their topic for study was Nicodemus' visit to Christ by night.
Miss Barth's Bible class has finished the study of the character of Ruth, and for the lesson Sunday will take up the ideal woman's character portrayed in the thirty-first chapter of Romans.
The girls on the Haskell committee work attended the meetings there Sunday last. They have a very prosperous association there now. A Junior association has been formed among the younger girls, which has about thirty-five members, and is taken in charge by Miss Richards, the primary teacher at Haskell, and Miss Dixon. Specials of the Philanthropic committee who have taken in charge the work at the Industrial school, report success in the sewing and cooking classes. The morning classes which the white children attend, are larger than the colored classes, and number from fifteen to twenty every week. The colored classes have about ten or twelve in each.
The girls of the Philanthropic commit.
The finance committee reports all the accounts even, with a small balance in favor of the Association. There have been many drains in the treasury this year but we are gland to know the money affaire stand so well.
PROGRAMME NOTICE
Lawrence April 6th-Announcement
A Chair of Journalism at Chicago Uni-
versity.
The great star triumvirate, Louis James, Kathryn Kidder, Charles Hanford, will be seen at Bowersock's theatre, in a mammoth production of Shakespeare's beautiful pastoral comedy, "The Winter's Tale." The Triumvirate is now accepted as the greatest legitimate organization since the days of Booth, Barrett and Modjeska and in their magnificent scenic revival of "The Winter's Tale" gives the patrons of the theatre a distinct novelty. "The Winter's Tale" has not been seen in this country since Mary Anderson's revival eleven years ago, in which play she appeared in the dual roles of "Aermione" and "Perdita," and in which she made her farewell appearances on the stage.
It is possible that within the present year at the University of Chicago a chair of journalism will be established. A committee has been appointed with Prof C E Miller as chairman, to look up the matter and report to the senior college faculty. The new department will not be in connection with the English department of the schools, such as at other universities where the chair of journalism is established, but will come under the head of the college of commerce and politics.
Not more than four courses will be offered, and will deal particularly with the history of the newspaper, the methods of news gathering, the Associated Press, printing and printing machinery, the newspaper in politics and subjects on a similar line, which will give the student an idea of the theory of newspapers.
A member of the committee said yesterday that the faculty of the school when established will not appear as attempting to make newspaper men, as the committee recognizes that such ends are only the result of the actual work of the reporter and editor.
The new department, he said, will not attempt to cover such things, but will give only such fundamental knowledge as may be gained by scientific and historical study, which are invaluable as a firm journalistic basis.

The selection of Hyatt, Davis and Mcowy to represent Kansas University in the debate against Colorado meets with general approbation in this institution. They are good orators and will represent our school very creditably. Hyatt was one of the debaters that defeated Missouri University at Columbia last year and has won several debates here. Davis is a new man in oratorial circles, but he is recognized as one of the best speakers Kansas University has. Mcowy is also a strong man and while last week was his initial appearance, he showed up well.
Minnesota and Iowa Universities are at swords' points over their annual debate. It seems that Iowa sent a delegate to the Northwestern debate to get an idea of Minnesota's style of oratory but when a Minnesota man made a return visit to Iowa his was not received as cordially as it should have been. So far open warfare has not been declared but we are anxiously awaiting more definite news from the seat of trouble. Our western institutions of learning are bound to keep abreast of the times.

Woman's Science Table.
A K. U. woman's science table has been established at the Marine Biological Laboratory through the efforts of Mrs. F. D. Robinson, wife of the late Governor Robinson.
This presents a great opportunity for Zoological, Botanical and Physiological work, especially on marine forms. The laboratory is delightfully located on the sea shore, where each summer hundreds of professors and students meet for advanced work. It is a place where not only opportunities are offered but also inspiration received by coming in contact with noted men and women. Miss Alberta McCrory, a graduate student in botany has been appointed to represent K. U. science women during the coming summer. There she will complete the investigations she has begun under Prof. Stevens as well as work in marine botany and zoology.
Fenn to be Here Again.
Rev Charles Hawley Fenn who has just resigned from the First Congregational church of Leavenworth will address the Y. M.C. A. next Sunday afternoon and lead chair, the rest of the week.
Mr. Fenn made such a favorable impression during his former visit that his presence asures a large chapel attendance for this week. He will be entertained at the Y. M. C. A. House.
A rate of one and one third will be given by the railroads for the spring holidays.
W. S. Kretsinger, who was in the University last term has been nominated by the Republicans of Emporia for city attorney. The nomination is equivalent to an election.

Dale Gear of the Kansas City Blues went to Lawrence yesterday and began the coaching of the Jawhaker ball team. He went out to McCook field in the afternoon and watched the boys practice. He did very little individual work, but seemed well pleased with the showing the team made. Some of the players who are trying for positions were told by Captain Parent after the game that they were practically out of the race, and this is supposed to have been done upon Gear's suggestion. By next week the team can probably be picked, and then Gear will begin his work in earnest. Manager Nichols wants to have him twice a week then until the season begins.—K. C. Star.

The Kappa girls gave a very lovely card party last Saturday, complimentary to Miss Bell Jones, a Kappa of two years ago, who visited here for several days. It was given at the home of Miss Jane Harmon on Mississippi street. The dainty and original color scheme observed throughout the afternoon was the feature of the party. Tiny cards, shaped like fleur-3-lis, were given the guests. These were tied with violet ribbons, and were marked to determine the partners at the tables. The score was kept with violets, and for each hand the winner was given a violet. The highest score brought its owner a large bunch of these fragrant purple blossoms. When refreshments were served the ice cream was found to be tainted a delicate violet. The rooms were profusely decorated, too, with violets and were fragrant with their delicate perfume. Miss Dell Frazer won the honor prize.
Over a year ago on a dark, rainy Saturday evening, in spite of several other social functions, nearly one hundred Association men enthusiastically participated in a novel entertainment known as a "toasty time." After speeches from several members and guests, all united in drinking punch, eating cookies, and singing college songs. Everyone had such an exceedingly good time that before the evening closed it was unanimously agreed that the "toasty time" must be repeated in the next year as a banquet. Since that time the association has more than doubled in membership and work and the dream of a year ago is realized in a banquet with covers laid for two hundred men.

Academic Honors.
Albanians will perhaps be interested to know that the rich silk gown, velvet cap and purple trimmed hood which was presented to President McKinley and worn by him in receiving his degree of Doctor of Laws at the University of Chicago last week was made by the Intercollegiate Bureau maintained by Cotrell & Leonard of this city. Ex-President Cleveland's outfit for Doctor of Laws of Princeton came from the same establishment, and the Western University of Pennsylvania here procured the doctors of Laws hood which it sent with the parchment diploma to Admiral Dewey to Manila. The Yale Doctor of Divinity hood which Dr. Watson ( Ian Maclauren) took back to England with him was also Mr. Leonard's design. Thousands of college outits are made here every year, but of course most of them are for people who are in the inner circles of the academic world; in the cases above mentioned the universities have honored themselves in granting these honors.—Alban y Argus.

THE SEASON OPENS.
THE FIRST GAME WILL OCCUR ON
THE 7TH OF APRIL WITH HAS-
KELL ON MC COOK
FIELD.
THE SPIRIT IS GROWING.
The Line-up Is Uncertain But Is to Be a Strong One. Gear is Here Twice a Week.
On the 8th of April the base ball season will open in Lawrence with a game between Haskell and the 'Varsity. The game promises to be a strong one. The 'Varsity is working hard now and has been for the past two weeks. The Indians are at work and are in good form. They have not chosen the team definitely but their line-up will be similar to that of last year. They are taking a greater interest in the game than usual and they will certainly give the Varsity a close, hard game. The management promises to have the grounds in proper order by the first of the month and the grand stand and the bleachers will be fitted up sc that the visitors will find good accomoations.
The 'Varsity nine is not yet chosen definitely but the men will play in the following positions in the Indian game: Moore, who has no opposition, will catch, Hall, Stanley and Maltby will take turns in the box. Frebert, Tucker and Curry will play on the first bag, while Housh of last year's team will bold down the second sack and Captain Parent will be found at third. Poorman unopposed will play the short position. Owens and Reid will each look for flies and things in the left outer garden. Barnett will catch the center, while Mattby and McKenna will each be given a chance in the right field.
These are the men that are now showing up best. They haven't their jobs tied up by any means. They must all work to hold them. Captain Parent is looking for the best man. Don't get fussy if your name does not appear in the line up, but keep coming out and trying for a place.
Coach Gear is down twice a week now and is doing some mighty fine work with the boys. He is well pleased with the outlook, and thinks Kansas will have a winning team.
AMUSEMENTS.
Manager Nichols now has the schedule complete which is the same as was published a few days ago.
The Louis James, Kathryn Kidder and Charles B. Hanford combination will be one of the really big events of the theatrical year in this city. The combination numbers thirty-seven people, including besides the three stars, Harry Langdon, John A. Ellsar, Mrs. Vandenoff, Helen Singer, Barry Johnstone, Norman Hackett, Julius McVicar, Harvey Cassidy, Thomas Collin-Cooke, Collin Kemper, Elizabeth Barriscale, Emily Grey-Bethel, and twenty-five others.
SOL SMITH RUSSEL'S FAMOUS PLAY
Many orders have already been placed for seats for Sol Smith Russell's great play 'A Poor Relation' and it behooves all good people to be on hand bright and early when the advance sale begins next Tuesday. "Those who have seen "A Poor Relation" know what mirth is, but it not at all certain that those who have not seen the play know very much about it. They may have laughed in some sort, but they may be sure that the great depths of the human heart which has laughter, mirth and humor in its profoundest depths have never stirred if they have not seen "A Poor Relation." The piece has also the advantage of being presented by a company of unusually high order, in fact the same company that supported Mr Russel until his temporary retirement from the stage owing to ill health, and that was engaged by Manager Fred S. Berger to support Frank J. Keenan, who was selected both by Mr. Russell and himself to play the part of Noah Vale. There will be no empty seats, empty hearts or empty eyes in the Opera House on Thursday evening.

Relation has at last been secured for this city and will be seen at the Opera house next Thursday night. Mr. Russel himself will not be with the company because of his temporary retirement from the stage on account of ill heath, but his great character of Noah Vale will be assumed by the rising young actor Frank J. Keenan, who has been selected for the task by both Mr Russel and his manager, Fred Gberger. Mr Keenan is an actor of the same quiet natural methods as Russell, whom he ressembles. His earliest professional experience was gained at the Boston museum. He was under such men as Jos. A. Herve, and Chas. Hoyt and last year staged and played an important part in the New York production of "The Christian." To be poor and yet happy, to be poverty-striken and yet charitable, to be out at the knees and yet a gentleman, these are some of the unique attributes that are combined [in the sweet and unworldly character of Noah Vale in "A Poor Relation." It is the oft repeated story of the poor inventor, rich in originative genius, yet poor in all qualifications that enable him to cope against the grinding selfishness of the world. Frank, generous and unsuspicious, the "poor relation" is robbed of his invention, upon which he has bestowed the time and thought of years. Even then his generous instincts do not desert him, and his noble qualities shine with ever increasing lustre amongst the associations of poverty and want. He accepts his loss with equanimity and takes the evil things of life with full and hopeful confidence that justice will at length prevail. As in all well conducted dramas, justice does finally prevail, and the poor relation reaps the full reward of patience, charity and well doing. The poor relation is a unique characterization upon the stage and yet a character that the world will recognize at sight. Mr Keenan is peculiarly adapted for the part he plays. In his interpretation there is little trace of artificiality or restraint. Never does the frame work of the character protrude. He is absolutely and entirely natural and in these features lie the elements of his great success. He submerges his individuality entirely in his role and the auditor never once thinks of Mr Keenan the actor or the man; it is only "The Poor Relation" that he sees and this alone is a proof of Mr. Keenan's art. It is a characterization in which he must be seen to be appreciated, and into which he weaves quaint touches of humor and pathos that are more than strong. Mr Keenan is supported by a capable and well balanced company, including such well known players as: Lila Convere Emily Wakeman, Hazel Kirk Chappell James Lackay, Alfred Hudson, Charlie Arthur, Jacques Martin, James Burns and Master Donald and Little Tamar.
Crane & Co., of Topeka, will probably publish the senior annual for manager Buzzi.
The first big game of the season on McCook field will be with the Kansas City Blues on April 17.

The success of Wagenbails and Kemper's mammoth revival-production of "The Winter's Tale" which is the feature bill of the Louis James, Kathryn Kidder, and Charles B. Hanford's combination this season, borders on the phenomenal. All through the south the play has broken al records. In nearly every instruct the entire capacity of the theatres was sold before the arrival of the company. In San Francisco where the big combination has just closed a three weeks engagement the capacity of the spacious Columbia theatre was tested at every performance, and the captious press of that city was unanimous in its praise of the stars, the grandeur of the production, and the admirable supporting company.
