SCHEDULE OF GAMES ANNOUNCED. --- More Old Players Reporting and Prospects Are Better. KANSAS WILL HAVE A WINNING TEAM. Though perhaps not a minus quantity, football has certainly been an unknown quantity until the last few days. The management has kept a spbinx like silence which has been pretty discouraging to the fans. VOL. IX. NO. 8. However the clouds are disappearing. The schedule was announced last week and everything is settling down to systematic work. The team will probably be light but good fast material is reporting and prospects are for a team that Kansas can feel sure will win its games. The training table began last Wednesday evening. At present only a few report there but the number will be increased as the players develop. The training table is considered a necessity for football men and they will now begin to get in better football form. Wednesday afternoon Coach Boynton met the boys for a half hour in the lecture room. He gave a short talk on plays, positions, and signals. Everyone is glad to hear of the old players coming back. They add spice and zest to the practice. It seems now that Wilcox, Meehan, Algie, and Buzzi will be back. Buzzi arrived last week from his summer trip. Besides these there is much good new material. Brady from the Normal is in K. U. this year and Odel one of central Kansas' fast players. There are also others as good. As yet very little attempt has been made at determining the places the men will play. It may be said, however, that Meehan is trying for center, Martin for guard, Wilcox for tackle, and Algie for end. Buzzi has been trying for quarter. New men are being tried in all of the places, and there is no doubt but finally the right man will be in about the right place. Coppina, from Manhattan, is an old football player; Martin is also a good, heavy man. Pulver and jenkinson, who played in the second team last year, are men of promise. Johnston is doing nicely behind the line. Kansas-University has always supported athletic games. The past few years have given it credit on the diamond and gridiron. Last year's team placed the crimson and blue high in athletic circles and the team goes down not only a "never defeated team" but an "ever victorious" one. We hope for as much this year. Manager Davis, who has succeeded Moulton, is a man of judgment. Coach Boyton comes highly recommended by Yost and Bert Kennedy. Mr Boynton comes from Cornell and is familiar with all the eastern methods. With support he will coach another winning team. What Kansas wants now is men to report on the field for practice. Even if you can't make the team this year, come out anyway. There will be a future then and besides the second team will have a number of games arranged for itself. It is an honor to be a member of the K. U. Team. Come out and play. The University will support and be proud of its team. As can be seen by the schedule, the first game will be next Saturday with Ottawa. Season tickets will be on sale next week. Every student on the bill wants a ticket. Don't think you can't afford it, for you can't afford to be without it. Give the Association your support. It needs the money, and you need the recreation. The team needs you to give them a good "Rock Chalk" yell. We are going to have a winning team, and you will want some ribbon on your cane, and a voice that can be heard all over McCook field. The following is the schedule of games. One of its advantages is that three of the games are to be played in Lawrence: With Ottawa, at Lawrence, September ber 20. With Denver Athletic club at Denver, October 27. With Washburn, at Lawrence, October 6. With Ottawa, at Ottawa, October 15. With Haskell, at Lawrence, October 18.

With Kansas normal school at Emporia November 20. With Missouri university, at Kansas City, November 29th, Thanksgiving. CLASS ELECTIONS. Juniore and Sophomore Elect Officer— interiors Here, Another Meeting Last year the Arts promised the Junior president to the Engineers. Jones and McGillivray had been mentioned, but at an engineer caucus it was decided to present only the name of McGillivray. Gward presented McGillivray's name for president; Harshberger nominated Miss Lasley for vice president; Walter Meek nominated Miss Pugh for secretary; E H McMath presented Harshberger's name for treasurer. No other nominations were made; in each case the secretary cast the unanimous vote of the class for the nominee. Last Tuesday the Juniors met and elected their officers for the present year. The University never before saw such a harmonious class meeting. Nearly every Junior was present. Everybody knew just what was going to happen, still everybody came. The Juniors never did do things by halves. What if there was a slate? They wanted to unanimously approve it. The meeting lasted just three and a half minutes. The only contests worth mentioning were over the persons that were to make the nominations. Considerable interest was shown in the Sophomore election. Three candidates, Murray, Seyster and Ward, had been announced. Early this week Ward withdrew and the most of his strength went to Murray. At the election Wednesday, most of the class were present. Collakay nominated Murry for president, and Manning presented Seysier's name. Jno. Sells was also nominated, but he immediately withdrew. Murray was elected by a vote of 42 to 31. The Seniors held their second class meeting last Wednesday. They met to discuss the Annual, class picnic and class pin. Some arrangements were made for a picnic, but Thursday a notice was posted stating that the picnic was postponed. The question of editor-in-chief for the Annual caused some excitement, and it was left until the next meeting. Blaine Moore, however, was elected manager. The choice was a good one. Mr Moore has been treasurer of the class and he has good executive ability. There need be no fears of the annual not being a success under his control. The Prosody of Marriage. The Eldorado Times claims to have found this paraphrase of the marriage service in one of the exchanges: "Wilt thou take her for thy pard, for better or for worse, to have, to hold, to fondly guard, till hauled in a hearse? Wilt thou let her have her way, consult her many wishes; make the fire up every day and help her with the dishes? Wilt thou give her all the 'stuff her little purse will pack; buy a boa and muff, a little sealskin sacque? Wilt thou comfort and support her father and her mother; Aunt Jemima, Uncle John, three sisters and a brother? And then his face grew blank; it was too late to jill; and through the chapel floor he sank and said I wilt, I wilt.—Mail and Breeze.

WOLF MINING ENGINEERING. 917 Massachusetts Street This Department Has Been Given New Booms with a New Equipment. In the spring of 1899, the school of Mining Engineering was organized in a department of the regular engineering school. Until this fall, however, it scarcely had breathing room, and its active life may be said to begin with the present year. The school now has the south and west rooms in the basement of Frazer hall. The rooms are not nearly as large as they ought to be, but good work does not necessarily depend on space. They are large enough for much original work. Prof. Haworth remarks that he supposes it is appropriate that he has the basement, for miners and geologists can never hope to get above the ground. The first room on the west is a lecture room. It is small but will seat thirty or forty students if necessary. The small room directly south is used as Prof. Haworth's office. Adjoining it on the south is the reading room. The latter contains Prof. Haworth's private library of works on mining, minerals, and geology as well as many books and magazines belonging to the University. There is also a reading table and a new and improved card catalogue. The maps which are hard to handle, are stored away for reference in a large case of drawers. Other valuable maps are to be brought from the main library and placed here. The reading room also contains a reflecting gionometer, a new and very expensive instrument, and a pair of balances which are protected by a railing. South of the reading room is Prof. Ha worth's private laboratory. East of this room and at the extreme south end of the building is the general mineralogical laboratory. It will accommodate about forty students. The mineralogical museum has been left in Snow Hall but enough specimens have been brought over to supply present needs. The room is fitted with hoods, cases for reagent bottles and tables with gas attachments. The walls have been nicely varnished. The room opens into the main hall where hooks are to be placed for the student's wraps. The history of this laboratory is very interesting. In the early days it was the general chemistry laboratory, and in it Prof Haworth himself did his first work in chemistry when a Freshman. It was used by the chemistry department until 1883, when the physics department took charge of it. After the building of the new Physics building chemistry classes again met in the room and they have remained there until this fall. A new department that will some day have a building of its own now comes in. Prof Haworth's old office in the northwest part of the basement is now used by ConFone, the assistant professor in mining engineering. Prof Cone is a graduate of this University and one of whom the institution is justly proud. He worked his way through school and graduated with honors. He was elected to his present position a year ago but was given a year's leave of absence to do special work at Columbia where he took his doctor's degree last spring. We will speak of his work more at length in a succeeding issue. The famous block house system of signalling trains on all trunk lines is brought into prominence by Lincoln J. Carter, introducing it in his new play "The Eleventh Hour." Mr. Carter demonstrates fully the entire workings of the "block" system that reduces accidents on railroads to a minimum. How few people that are riding on a fast train and flash by a block signal tower know what is contained therein and what an important factor that tower is to the safe guidance of trains. Yet all of this is thoroughly demonstrated in "The Eleventh Hour," which will be presented at Bowersock's opera house, Saturday, September 22. Owing to the fact that there are more tennis players than there is room for in the clubs which have heretofore been in existence, some of the boys have organized a new association known as the University Tennis Club. They have quite a large membership at present and are expecting some new members. The officers in charge at present are: President Leslie Gould, secretary and treasurer, Fred Nichols; manager, George Vinton. REPUBLICAN CLUB MEETING. The University McKinley and Roosevelt Club are called to meet for organization on Monday evening at 8 o'clock at the county court house. Steps will also be taken for the formation of a troop of Roosevelt's Rough Riders, to march during the campaign in the regiment of Rough Riders under command of Col. Wilder S. Metcalf. REPUBLICAN CLUB. Students Are Interested in Politics, and a Campus Club Is to Be Organized. The fall campaign is causing as much excitement among our students as it is in circles outside the school. The republican boys have been working among those who are in sympathy with the republican party and its principles. A paper has been passed calling for, the signature of those who will meet in the Douglas county court house on September 24th to organize. A McKinley and Roosevelt club will be organized. Its object will be to promote in every way the success of the republican party, its principles and its candidates. The officers to be elected will be a president, secretary, treasurer and an executive committee to consist of five members besides the president and secretary, who will be members ex officio. There are already between 500 and 600 signatures to the club, and everything looks as if the republican party as represented in the U. of K. will do much to further the principles which they represent. Snow Business Meeting. The Kansas Lawyer. Snow Literary Society held an informal business meeting last Saturday. They decided to make several needed changes in the constitution and a committee of three was appointed for the work. The committee consists of Messrs Baumgartner, McMath and Devlin. The new constitution will be read and acted upon tonight. A membership committee was appointed consisting of the president as chairman, Messrs McMath, Hindman, Harshberger, Devlin and Misses Haynes and Lyons. Those wishing to submit their names may see any one of that committee. The society is open to both ladies and gentlemen and all will be heartily welcome. Before the law students left last year they elected a strong force of editors for the "Kansas Lawyer." The only one who returned this year was J H McGraw, the manager. At a meeting last Monday the following officers were installed. Editor-in-chief, C A Mattson. Business manager, J H McGraw Associate editors, A L Billings, John McKenna. Business manager, J H McGraw. Tuesday the Junior Laws elected Mr Maize as their representative. The "Lawyer" with a few important changes will be continued as it has been heretofore. It will still be issued as a monthly, their charter calling for an issue at least ten times a year. The subscription price is changed from $1 a year to 50 cents. Ed F. Davis' Big Spectacular Uncle Tom's Cabin Co. Ed F. Davis' Uncle Tom's Cabin Co. is without doubt the largest on the road. They carry forty people, an immense quantity of special scenery, many new and novel features, including the thrilling and inspiring American military spectacle, during which is given a reproduction of the blowing up of the battleship "Maine," a grand cake walk; the animated song sheet; two quartettes; magnificent scenery; wonderful mechanical effects; acting dogs, etc. Opera house, Lawrence, Wednesday, September 26.

LAWRENCE, KAN., SEPT. 22, 1900 Save some money for a season football ticket. You will want one soon. The man with a pull is the man of the hour. He may not last, but the chances are in his favor. Don't think that blue blood flows in your veins just because you have colors on your coat. The McKinley-Rosewell boys seemed to be in force this week. Why don't the Bryanites organize? We might have some joint debates or sham battles to open up the campaign Minnesota University has changed its weekly paper to a daily. The paper is now called the Minnesota Daily and is printed on the University press. It is bright and newsy, and a credit to the institution it represents. The Athletic Association did wisely in allowing the football team to play the game with the Medics. The game makes the schedule much stronger. It is to be hoped the team will also receive permission to play with the Denver Athletic Association. The boys need the outing it will give them. Few people outside of the University know that there is such a thing as school politics. Four class elections each year, two Weekly elections and elections for places on athletic boards makes a very respectable political field, and it is certainly used to advantage. Political lines are drawn in all sorts of ways. Combines, gangs and political strings are about as numerous as in the real political world, and the Hannas and Joneses are also much in evidence. It is a credit to the students that although there is much real rivalry yet there is seldom any ill will in the contests. This kind of work is itself something of an education. Several of our promote n statesmen have said they learned their first political lessons at college, and in the future it may be that some renowned senator or ambassador to St. James will say he took his first training in state craft while interested in K, U, pollin cs. Beginning with this year the University of Kansas will include in its list of the faculty the name of Mrs. Mary F. Newson. In acquiring her services we have secured a lady of liberal education and of great attainments in the line of mathematics. Her name before her marriage with Prof H B Newton last month was Dr. Mary F Winston. Mrs. Newson has the honor of being the first American woman to receive the degree of Ph. D. in the University of Goettingen, Germany. For the three years following September, 1897 she has occupied the chair of mathematics of the State Agricultural College at Manhattan, which she resigned to engage in a different kind of work. Everyone at K. S. A. C. regretted to see her leave the school in which she had worked so faithfully. The following resolution concerning Mrs. Newson was passed by the faculty of the College whic he has just left: "We recognize in Miss Mary F. Winston, professor of mathematics in the Kansas State Agricultural College, one whose technical acquirements are rarely excelled, and whose logical mind clear sense of justice, earness of character, sympathetic nature and persona charm have combined to make her one of the most efficient and popular teachers this institution, and one of the most valuable counselors of this faculty. We desire to express our deep and sincere great at her departure, and we hope that in her new life she may find the full measure of happiness and prosperity that she deserves." LITERARY SOCIETIES Tonight the literary societies of the University give their first open meetings. Interesting and instructive programs have been prepared and every one is invited to come. Especially the new students will be made welcome. Come and get acquainted and get in line for some really good literary work. The societies need you and you need the help of the societies. Credit is given in the English department for attendance and] work on the program. There is also a pleasant social side to the society. An agreeable crowd of young people is always present. A. J. Ruth is president of the Snow oociety which meets at North College . At present Mr. Ruth is absent and until his return in October Mr. Ward will act in his place. Grace Lyons is secretary.

Robinson, president of the Mexican Central railroad, stopped off in Topeka yesterday on his way to Lawrence, where he will enter the Kansas University. He will enter as a special student and take a course in English literature and other special studies. Mr. De Leon is well known in Topela having resided there for some time while associated with F.O. Popanoe in the Accounting,Trust Company. He went to Mexico a few weeks ago, and in returning it was seven days on the road, having been delayed by washouts on the Santa Fe, due to the bridge near Lamy being destroyed by the rivers Gessile changing its channel. —Mail and Breeze.

Kappa Alpha Theta traternity will give a hop in I O F O F hall Saturday night. The Phi Gams dancing party which was given last Saturday night in A O U W hall was most enjoyable. Good music and the coolness of the evening made dancing doubly pleasant. One happy feature of the occasion, that proved quite an addition to the evening, was the pledging of Alonzy de Leon of Topeka and George Brown of Wichita. Among those present were Mr and Mrs Bob Manley, Misses Flintom, Sexton, Spencer, Van Hosin, Morris, Gaddis, Armsby, Hansen and Leland; Messrs. Campbell, Edward, Fletcher, Dinsmore, Oldham, Imboden, Noble Brown, De Leon, Fletcher and Frank Beck and Bert Curry of Topeka. The Annual Fall Reception of the W CA and the Y M C A was given in Library hall last Friday evening and about 400 of the students and faculty were present. The hall was beautiful decorated for the occasion with golden rod and the University colors, blue and red. The Deans of the different schools with their received. The affair was called a Registration party and each guest was required to register as if he were entering school. He was given cards on which to arrange his studies, a list of them being found on a bullitin on one side of the room. When studies such as Flunkology, Profology and Ponyology were selected and the cards signed, the guest was given a ticket which permitted him to partake of the refreshments. The registering caused a great deal of amusement and on the whole the party was a decided success. At seven oclock Wednesday morning Miss Harriet Ayres oldest daughter of Rev W W Ayres of this city was united in marriage to Mr Jule de Labarth of Trail, B C The marriage took place at the home of the bride's uncle Walter Aldrich where she has spent the greater part of the last two years. Miss Harriet Ayres, the bride was very popular in Lawrence society. She was a graduate of the University receiving both her A M and A B degree. She is a member of the Pi Beta Phi society. Her host of friends in social club and church circles wish the happiest future possible for Mr. and Mrs. de Labarth. Wednesdav night the girls of the Kappa Alpha Theta had a delightful party at the home of Mrs. Walter Howe. Miss Anna Harrison of Topka won at whist and received the honor prize, a box o candy. The daintiest refreshments were served and music and recitations made the evening pass most pleasantly. The girls were glad to have with them again Edna Warkentin of Newton, who is here visiting friends on her way cast to spend the winter. Kappa Kappa Gammas entertained Tuesday evening with a whist party a the home of the Misses Addison on Tennessee street. Ten tables were arranged for whist which was enjoyed the greater part of the evening. The highest scores were made by Miss Armsby and Mr. De Leon. As a result of 'cutting', Miss Armsby won the prize, a picture of Hosea. During the latter part of the evening Mr. De Conde gave several funny Mexican songs, after which refreshments were served. One of the most delightful parties ever given in Pythian hall, was that given by the Barbs last night. It was the first of a series that the Barb boys are going to give this winter and, if the series is as successful as the first one, the boys may well congratulate themselves. Forty couple were present. One of the features was the excellent music furnished by Sommer's or chestra. The social committee of the Y W C A will have a fudge party for their pledged girls Saturday afternoon at the Y W C A house. Miss Mary Brown of Independence is wearing Thea colors. H P Fones puts in his leisure time studying shorthand at the Business College. A good thing for a lawyer. Mr. Lahrop Gay, of Topeka, has pledged to the Phi Pis.

A. There are almost four hundred people on the hill who can testify that the reception Friday night was a success. The Association has profited by the visit of Rev. C. H. Fenn of Leavenworth, who has been at the house during the week. Library hall was prettily decorated in University colors and banks of golden rod. One corner was fitted up as Registrats office which was visited by all presents who were duly registered in Profology, Quizics, Cribatics and kindred subjects; instructors were secured from the opposite sex and classes were soon in session in the various cozy corners about the room. An adjournment was taken in order that professors and students might partake of ice cream Weidemann's, which happily endd a very pleasant occasion. This announcement will be greeted with much enthusiasm maby the many K. U students, both tennis players and enthusiasts, interested in this most skillful entertaining sport. All members of the faculty and of the student body are invited to visit the Association home on Ohio street. The boys of the house have put in a very fine tennis court on the vacant lots adjoining. It is no exaggeration to say that no form of sport is capable of working up more intense and absorbing interest than is a closely contested tennis tournament. It is to be hoped that this tournament will be entered not by those only who have the most probable chances of winning, but by everyone who is able to put up in practice an ordinarily good game. For it is a noteworthy fact that the best players in a tournament far exceeds their play in practice. It may be truthfully said that no one knows beforehand what success he may attain in a tennis tournament. Some of the greatest tennis successes have been won by those least expected to win. The new player who should also bear in mind that he need never expect his game without tournament experience. The regular Association Bible classes are now being organized; they will meet in the rooms of the members in various locations convenient to those wishing to take the work. The courses are especially adapted to students. No dogmatic teaching is given, but the freshest interchange of opinion is encouraged. Leave your name at the house if you wish to join a class. The management of the South Lawrence Tennis Association wishes to announce that the University tennis championship in singles and doubles will be decided on the courts of the Association *at the corner of Ohio and Adams street by a tournament commencing Saturday, October 20. The membership of the Association is increasing rapidly this week. The ticket which will be issued to members, guarantees that "upon presentation of this ticket the holder will be welcomed at all city and student associations, and during vacation periods will be granted privileges subject to local limitations while this ticket is in force." R J. Montgomery is employed as general secretary at Haskell this year. All old K. U, men know the proud place held in western tennis circles by Kansas University men and it has been injust such tournaments as the coming one on the south Lawrence courts that our great players have developed their powers. Those who have won [the most fame for the U. in the past have been in singles Russell R. Whitman and Edwin E Carroll former champions; of K. U. and winners of the Missouri-Kansas championship at Kansas City, Mo., and in doubles Edwin E. Carroll and Sydney W Griggs champions of "Kansas 1899 and of Kansas and Missouri 1899. It might be rash to say K. U. has as good players now as in the first but it " Certainly is true that by earnest effort on the part of our rising young players much greater players can be developed now than in the past. The setting of the date so far ahead should give plenty of time for all to get the requisite amount of practice. Gilford Chappell, the boy orator of Oklahoma, who was once a member of the class of oo here, stopped for a few days the first of the week to visit friends and talk politics. He is on his way to the University of Michigan, where he is taking the course in law.

In the first place, it is longer. The standard length is 19 inches. It is ribbed at the top, and, other things being equal, a perfect fit is assured, without support. It is not more than 25 years since the opera length was adopted. It was this long stocking that caused the temporary displacement of garter buckles and the dainty silk circle in fashion a generation ago. In all the Chicago department stores the decorations in honor of the Grand Army encampment included artistic displays of the new stockings. But the stockings are not on sale. They have not even arrived from Paris, where they were first brought out a few days ago. Only patterns are shown. Orders for the new stockings will be taken, however, and deliveries will be made as soon as the goods arrive. Men have borrowed the woman's shirt waist for summer wear; therefore, why should women not retaliate by borrowing man's socks for winter use? That is the question asked of captious critics and by the big firms that are now sending for large consignments of silk, llisle thread and cotton gooose. Chicago Girls Eager to Adopt a Dress Innovation. It is said that the new sock will cause the garter to disappear altogether, and physicians lail the innovation as a boon to the girls not only of Chicago, but throughout the land. Chicago girls will be among the first to adopt socks next winter. Fashion has decreed that the abbreviated stocking shall be the thing for the stylish woman, and of course that is enough to make the sales of the new hosiery reach immense proportions in Chicago. PRAISED BY JAPANESE. Correspondent Tells of American Ambulance Corps' Fine Equipment, A Japanese correspondent with the allied forces sent the following to his paper after the battle of Tlen-tsin, says a Victoria (B. C.) dispatch to the New York Sun: "The American ambulance corps has done some excellent work. Their stretchers are the best in the field and show the wonderful inventive faculty of the Americans. The handles of these stretchers are so arranged that they can be formed at once into supports by a clever mechanical contrivance, so that the stretchers can be used as beds or benches for surgical operations. The advantages of this system cannot be too much commended, for on ground so swampy and hot as the soll of Chili the wounded men cannot safely lie long pending the treatment on the spot, and this inconvenience is removed by the American invention. Sixty men were thus treated directly where they fell who otherwise would have died. The Japanese medical staff refer to the fact in most praiseworthy terms." 一 二 三 四 Weaver Sells for $1.00 the Best Kid Glove Offered in America for that Price.

The regular meeting of the Association was held in the chapel at 5 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, and was in charge of the Bible study and appropriate music was selected from the song books recently purchased. Miss Florence Porter, as chairman of the Bible study committee, led the meeting. The following courses in Bible study are offered the girls in the University, and it is most eagerly hoped that many, especially each member of the Association, will choose one from among them.

The Chemical Seminary met last week and listened to an account, of the meeting of the American association for the advancement of science and of the American Chemical society, both of which Prof. Bailey attended in New York this summer. The seminary meets every Thursday at 4 p.m. in the rooms of the chemistry building. Local Telegraph Association. The local Telegraph Association met the last of the week to arrange for work during the new year, but as a quorum of last year's members was not 'present', no decisive action was taken. Profs. O. H. McMeans and W. K. Palmer are at the head of the Association. A good many of the old members will enter it again and there are a great many new students applying for admission so that the Association will be larger and better than ever. The line is in great need of repair, as it has been torn down in many places but as several of the boys are now at work on it, in all probability the wires will be strong by the time for the next meeting. A number of improvements have been planned and with the forty members which are expected, will likely be carried out. The promoters have decided to put in a generator instead of the batteries now in use. They may also connect up with some regulator and have the time telegraphed over the line. The Telegraph association owes much to Mr French one of the citizens of Lawrence and an honorary member for the work he has done for them during the summer in the way of looking after the lines, etc., AMUSEMENTS.

Y. City What of the Graduates? Nearly twelve thousand college graduates are facing the future, many of them with only their diplomas and a resolution to get on in the world. Hundreds of these have paid their way through college, and by reason of this are better fitted to solve the practical problems - which now confront them. But most of them will be thrown on their own resources, perhaps for the first time in their lives, and for them the question of what to do or what not to do is a very grave and important one. One of the greatest foes of the college graduate is indecision in regard to the supreme problem of his life work, on the choice of which depends his future weal or woe. Many of the students on entering college think they know what they are going to do after they are graduated, but, as their mental horizon widens and new possibilities open up to them, as they discover new forces within themselves driving their four years voyage of self discovery, they discover their ideals have changed. When they were on the farm, in the shop, the store, or the factory, they believed they knew what they could do best, but they find now their old land marks have vanished; new tastes, new desires and new ambitions have been developed. What pleased them as boys no longer gives satisfaction. As new ideals have been held up before them, the old ones have been abandoned, as a child gives up the picture book for the apple, the apple for the orange, and the orange for the model steamship or engine. This creation of uncertainty is one of the unfortunate things incident to the higher education. When the horizon is narrow and the ambition is limited, it is comparatively easy to make a choice. But with wider views and greater knowledge, yet without practical exjience, the question of a right choice becomes much more serious. Many students form so strong a habit of vacillating in regard to their vocation that it is impossible for them to decide. Now one profession holds up its glittering prizes and emoluments, and now another and another, until they become incapable of a definite choice. Finally they give up trying to decide and drift hopelessly alone. If you have formed the unfortunate, habit of balancing conflicting motives until you have lost confidence in your power to choose, the best course to pursue is to resolutely look the whole situation over, take account of your stock, as represented by your ability and tendencies, your special fitness or liking for some particular jine of work, and compel yourself to make a choice. Then, when you have deliberately chosen, under no circumstances allow the mind to dwell upon the unfavorable side of your choice and the attractive features of other vocations. Abide unfinchingly by your decision, concentrate your energies upon what you have undertaken to do, and you will be surprised to find how your power will increase and your facility for doing the work of your choice develop.—Success.

THE WERNER COMPANY, Bullibuster and Manufacturer- AKRON, OKLA. The Japanese have recently had their first introduction to sleeping cars, and the innovation has been a great success. These cars are native built, having been constructed at the Kobe shops of the Sanyo railway, which is the most progressive of all the Japanese lines and which is constantly adopting American ideas in the equipment of the road. The cars are four in number, and the first was put in operation early in the present summer. Only Four In Use, and Natives Clam- or For More. These sleeping cars, says The Railway and Engineering Review, now run between Tokuyanna and Kobe, but next year will run through to Simonoski. They were designed and built by Mr. H. Iwasaki, locomotive superintendent of the Sanyo railway, and have proved very popular and profitable ever since their first trip, the Japanese liking them very much. As will be seen, there is a small dining room seating eight persons at each end, where foreign style of food is served at all hours of the day or night. These cars are 50 feet long, 8 feet wide and have 16 berths and are lighted by electricity and heated by steam. There is a porter's room, the berths are very comfortable, and there are two small in each upper berth with seats covered with fine netting on screen the dust from incoming at this. A is a decided improvement over our style of upper berth. These cars are finished in beautiful Japanese wood and are very handy throughout. They run on six wheel, steel frame and bogle trucks and were built at a cost of $4,500 gold each. Until this year there were no sleeping cars operated in Japan, and passengers had to sleep on longitudinal car seats if there was room or else sit up if there was no room, the latter being usually the case. There was also no heat, and foreigners especially suffered greatly in winter. So since the Sanyo railway has built these cars there is now a general clamor for sleeping cars all over the empire. POOR MAN'S FOOD BEST Professor Atwater Consider it More Nourishing Than That of the Rich. Professor W. O. Atwater of Wesleyan university at Middletown, Conn., who discovered by means of his "man in a box" that alcohol was a food, has now reached the astonishing conclusion that the poor man's food is much more nourishing than the rich man's. The full report of Professor Atwater on the comparative nutritive qualities of the food used by the rich and the poor has been completed from nine states and one territory. The material at the disposal of the professor has been exhaustive. In general his declarations show that the characteristic food of the poor-soops, broths and stews, which form their principal meals—in many cases has a higher food value than the exquisite club dishes, largely fowl and game, which are regarded as almost exclusively the food of the rich. The report of Professor Atwater contains a scathing rebuke to the manner of living among the wealthy in that there is three times as much food wasted as there is eaten, says the New York Press. In general he finds that the American people could get twice as nutritious food for about half the money that they are now paying. Professor Atwater will not give out any official figures, as he is waiting to hear from several more states and territories, but his deductions are so plain that he now has no fear that they will be changed in any vital sense by later reports. His conclusions are closely allied to those which led President Harper of Chicago university to conclude that a family can easily live on 15 cents a day.

NEW YORK New Book Denounces Coercion and Advocates the Golden Rule. M. Tcherktoff recently received from Count Tohlot the manuscript of his new work, "The Slavery of Our Times." This is an inquiry into the results of modern industrialism and has engaged Tohlot's attention for some months, says the London correspondent of the New York World. It will be translated by Aylmer Maude. Tolstoi says in his introduction that the book is in a further and fuller expression of the thoughts and feelings he expressed ten years ago in his book, "What Must We Do Then?" His concern is with how we can now consider leading to them. The fundamental idea of both books is the negation of coercion. Tolstoi says: --- "This negation I learned and understood from the gospel, where it was expressed most clearly in the words, 'You have heard it said an eye for an eye'—1. e., you were taught to use coeruleum as a marker of danger is to suffer your other cheek to the smitter—1. e., suffer violence, but do not commit it. "I know these great words, owing to the carelessly perverted uniform interpretation of both liberals and the church, will be for a majority of so called educated people a reason for not reading this work or for a blatied attitude toward it, yet nevertheless I place words at the beginning of my book." Rare Flowering Tree. A new flower is blossoming in Central park, says the New York Sun. It is the flower which grows on the Queensland fire tree, known otherwise as the Stenocarpus simulatus. It has taken Mr. Rose, the park landscape gardener, several years to cultivate the tree, which is now blossoming. The flowers are red. The tree in its present condition is said to be worth no less than $1,000.

Foot Ball Season Opens—The First Game Will Be Played Here Today—Forty Men Have Been Trying for places. OUTLOOK FOR 1900. Good Men and More Enthusiasm—Weight-Management Today's Game-Probable Line Up-The Team From Ottawa. Foot ball stock at K. U. has risen. It is now at par and before today closes it will be at a premium. Until this week, prospects have not been especially flattering for sport on the gridiron. New men were slow in coming out, and those that did come were too light. It seemed that scarcely any of the old men would be back. The fans shook their heads, and everybody wondered if K. U. really would have a foot ball team. But the hoped for has happened. Some heavy men have appeared; Buzzi came back; Tucker refused an offer at Manhattan to stay with the team; Odle, Morton, Bright, Carter and Powell came out, so now, though the team is not as heavy as some former K U teams, yet it is much heavier than at first it seemed it would be. Part of the time as high as forty men have been out practising. Nearly every night there are three teams in line for play; this is what makes a good first team: After all, the scrubs deserve a good daal of the credit that a first team gets. Coach Boynton understands his business. He works quietly but thoroughly. The dummy for tackling which he uses is new at K U but, is considered indispensable in the east. Every evening the coach gives the men practice at tackling and catching the ball, and then lines them up for actual play. Four of the men who are trying to places are last year's men. They are Captain Wilcox, Tucker Bucci and Algie, Woolcox weighs 189 and can be depended upon for right tackle. Tucker has been winning favor in the practice games. He is quick and sure. His weight is 185 and he will no doubt be left tackle. Bucci is being tried for quarter back and is giving good satisfaction. He weighs 160. Algie, weight 149, is a fine man at left end. Among the new players Carter is the heaviest. He weighs 206 pounds and is showing up splendily for center. Five years ago he played in the Dickinson county high school team, which was then the best team in central Kansas. Odle, weight 162, is from the same place and he will probably be left half. He is a fast sprinter and has a good deal of experience. Morton, from western Kansas, is trying for left guard. He is a man of premise and weights 186. Powell, who has been playing right guard, is a little light for the place at 172. Jenkinson, who played with the scrubs last year is showing up well as right half. His weight is 150 Black, from New York, weighs 168, has had high school experience, and is trying for full back. Weiland, weighs 140, has been playing right. He is a little too light but is a good player. Other men besides are being constantly practiced. Copping, weight 153, Vincent, weight 180, and Brady are the other men who are de veloping fast. Meehan wrenched his knee so badly in one of the practice games that it will be some time before he can come on the field. The life-up will not be definitely known until just before the game.§ During which, time the several different men will probable be tried at the various places The probable line-up, however, will be as follows: Center...Carter Left guard...Morton Right guard...Powell Left tackle...Tucker Right tackle...Capt Wilcox Left end...Algie Right end...Whitlaw Quarter...Buzzi Left half...Odle Right half...Jenkinson Full...Black Ottawa has been having the same kind Ottawa has been having the same kind of trouble that K H had. There were not enough old players and heavy men. A large number of players have been out, however, sometimes as many as thirty-four to forty, and they have some really good material. The last reports say that their team will be quite strong. With the K. U, team somewhat deficient in length of training, the game is likely to be an interesting one. Ottawa was the only local队 that scored against K. U last year. J O Evans, who played end last year, will play the same place and captain in the team. Further than this their line up has not been determined, Ottawa has a good schedule this year, including games with Haskell, Washburn, Emporia, Warrensburg, William Jewel and the medics. THE TIGERS. Prospects Bright at Missouri State Uni versity. From the daily papers we learn that Missouri expects to play winning football this year. There is nothing very startling about this, however, for Missouri's spirits are always high until after the Thanksgiving game. The Times remarks that the aggregation will be the strongest sent since the Tigers used to wallop the Jayhawkers. It would be interesting to know just when those times were. So far, out of all the games, Missouri has won but two. Still Missouri has some good material, K U men remember the compliments the last year Tigers received from our coach Dr Heatherington, the physical director, has charge of the boys. Dulfz, assisted by Murphy, is head Coach, Both Fultz and Murphy are eastern men, having coached and played at Amherst and Brown The make-up of the team is also good Craig, Kruse and Thurman are old heavy weights who will make the team. They have bucked the K. U. line before. Washer and Cooper of last year's team are also back. Besides these there are some very promising second team men. K U. is interested in the Tigers. We hope they will have a good team and much success, only on Thanksgiving day we reserve our good wishes and hope to see K. U. again the victor. Word comes from Lincoln that the outlock for a winning team is exceedingly bright Nine men of last year's term are back in the game while about thirty new men are out trying for places on the team. The new coach, Booth of Princeton, will try at the outset a kicking game, which will be continued throughout the season if the men can be taught to punt well. Nebraska Hopeful. The big game of the season will be with Minnesota at Lincoln, on Thanksgiving day, and both management and men are confident of success. —Minnesota Daily.

G.C.WOLF Organise Thursday Night With a Good Memberhip. 917 Massachusetts Street About 150 students met in old Music hall Tuesday evening to complete the organization of the K U Bryan club. The committee on permanent organization, appointed at the previous meeting, read its report, which was unanimously adopted. In the election of officers, true to the spirit of democracy, each candidate had to prove his fitness for the desired position by a three minutes' talk. This method proved the fact that when it comes to oratory, several second editions of Bryan are members of the organization. W F Mowry was elected president and Blaine Moore secretary. A permanent executive committee consisting of Messrs. Cassity, Johnson and Calkins was elected, whose duty is to provide for speakers, confer with other political organizations and procure and distribute literature among enlightened college students who believe political meetings were originated for the purpose of, making personal attacks on members of the opposition party or who distribute campaign buttons as a means of gaining office. A membership committee consisting of one member from each class in the different schools was, at the bidding of the society, appointed by the president. All students who wish to vote for Bryan in their home precincts should at once hand their names to this committee or to the president or secretary of this organization. The club then decided to make Music hall its permanent headquarteres and hold regular meetings every Friday night. Good speakers both local and out of town will be had each夜, and there will be no lack of sound political discussion, as well as enthusiasm. If the harmony and spirit of the entire fusion forces may be judged from this meeting McKinley may as well pack his accoutrements and hire a dray for his moving day is not far off. After giving a good old "Rock Chalk" that jarred the paving brick the full length of Massachusetts street the club adjourned. Freshman Class Meeting. The Freshmen are learning, and experience is proving their best teacher. Some of their long-headed politicians called a meeting the other day. The invitations said, "Everybody come," everybody came. At least most of the sophomores were there, and many juniors, who certainly weren't loyal to their freshmen cousins. It was in fact a sophomore jubilee. The sonhs invented a freshman yell. Sing it out, squall it out. Fresh milk, Butter I am Class of naughty four. And some of the Freshmen joined in before they realized just what they were doing Strope and Junior Engineer Little were nominated for temporary chairmen. Strope was declared elected, and finally amid Sophomore yells, the meeting was adjourned until Saturday, the chairman decla ring that only students with freshmen enrollment cards would be admitted. The adjourned meeting was only a bluff, and after hygiene Friday, the class quietly met and elected its officers. Handkerchief Bazaar. Students do-drop in. Where? At the Congregational church. When?

Both Mr Kace and Mr Anderson graduated from K U with last year's law clase. OTTAWA CONFIDENT THE HEAVIEST TEAM IN YEARS EXPECTS TO DEFEAT KANSAS. A K,U,man who has been in Ottawa the last few days has just returned. He says the Ottawa team is confident of victory in this afternoon's game. They have a heavy man in center. The left guard weighs 240 pounds, the right guard 220. They use a new position in playing, almost facing center. Behind the line the men are active and in good form. Today's game must be fought for.

They are the ones on whom, the record of the school depends. The college paper is always glad to give them mention. If your nametags not on the subscription list, put it there, and let us hear what you are doing. Among the exchanges this week were the first numbers of the Baker Orange. The Oven from Emporia, Silver and Gold from Colorado, and the Knox Student from Galesburg, Ili. The first number of the WEEKLY was printed two weeks earlier than any of these. From our exchanges we learn that the seniors in many of the universities have already ordered their caps and gowns. The plan is a good one. If a class expects to have gowns it should have them for appropriate occasions throughout the year. It is expensive and almost useless to buy caps and gowns late in the year when they can be worn but once or twice at most. The University is exceedingly grateful to Mr. A. Monroe for his gift to the chemistry department. For some time Prof. Franklin and Mr. Krause have been experimenting with liquid ammonia. As early as last year letters of inquiry and congratulation on their work came to them from Russian universities and elsewhere. Their experiments have been watched carefully at home and abroad. It is such work that makes our University famous. Just at the time when it seemed that the work must be discontinued because of lack of funds, Mr. Monroe generously gives $250 to the department, and the school will not soon forget his kindness. The WEEKLY feels that it is not properly supported by the professors of the University. To be sure the most of them are on the subscription list, but when anything unusual happens in their departments, they usually take pains to let the down town papers know, without ever giving the WEEKLY a single thought. The next Saturday they pick up the paper and complain about it not having any news. This is not true of every professor, we are glad to say. Some of them willingly grant us interviews and volunteer information. We wish there were more such ones. The WEEKLY is not ideal, we are sorry to say, but one thing is sure, it can never even approach the ideal if the faculty is unwilling to give it University news. Football tickets are now on sale, and before the game this afternoon every student who can possibly afford it should have one. It is worth your while to have a vote in the Athletic association. You will want to go to all the games anyway, and a ticket will save you money. Help the management and the team. Be byal to K. U. For these reasons buy a season ticket: The complaint has been made that the WEEKLY is only a republican organ. Those who are reading the paper know the charge is entirely untrue. The Bryan club received no write up last week simply because it had not organized. We are anxious to get all political news at the University, and space will be given to either side. The charge is so foolish that it scarcely deserves a thought. One of the Weekly board recently received a letter from home with this question, 'Is there any one in Lawrence who dyes?' It may have been a misunderstanding that resulted in the following letter: Dear Ida:--Your letter came yesterday. You asked me if I knew "whether there is anyone who dies in Lawrence." Yes, dear Ida, several have died here during the past year, several died the year before, and if the city records are to be depended on a great many shook off this mortal coil even before that time. In some years the mortality has been frightful, in others several months have passed without the reaction of a single tomstone. People are born, live and die in Lawrence as in any other town. These seem to be habits which are almost, if not universal. People are accustomed to die here, but I don't think that they do so more than in other towns. At least I have never heard of any one dying more than once. At present I believe neither the democrats or republicans have committed themselves on the issue. But I am sure the populists are 'agit' it, and I believe they could make a good paramount issue out of it. One thing is certain, those who come out or rather go out in favor of dying, wouldn't be able to stuff the ballot box Perhaps, Ida, you would like to ask why people die in Lawrence. As to that, I frankly admit that to a great extent I am in total darkness, and perhaps many of them are too. Some die of old age, some of over-work, and some because they are tired of this cold world, I might presume to say, where some have goe be to but many it would seem I had overstepped the bounds of delicacy. I confess, Ida, your buestion is rather startling, but I am yours to serve.—E. SMILES The flower of the family is often a blooming idiot. Miss Skinner—Compare ill.

Baird's Comments on the Football Season of '99, as Found in Spalding's Guide. Some interesting comment upon western football and football teams of the season of '99 is furnished by Charles Baird, director of athletics, University of Michigan, in Spalding's Football Guide of 1900. Baird ranks Chicago as champion, although admitting that Iowa was almost if not quite as strong, and regards the Chicago team of '99 as the strongest and best developed team that institution has ever had. The splendid team work and exceedingly rapidity of play were the factors in placing the Maroons at the top. The Wisconsin team of '99 is likewise regarded as the strongest that ever played under the Cardinal. The overwhelming defeat by Chicago demonstrated that her line was much inferior to that of the Maroons and perhaps not superior to that of Michigan, and the difference in the result of the Michigan-Wisconsin and that of the Chicago-Wisconsin game may partly be accounted for by the fact that in the former game Wisconsin was materially aided by the high wind prevailing which enabled her to employ the kicking game, in which lay her chief strength, while in the latter she lost the toss and was compelled to abandon the kicking game and rely on line plays. The result was a decisive defeat. Northwestern exhibits a record of varying hues. Badly defeated by Wisconsin early in the season (38 to o) and by Beloit (11 to o) she met and defeated Minnesota (11 to 5) but was almost annihilated by Chicago (76 to o). Then recovering she defeated Indiana (11 to 6) and out classed Purdue (29 to 1). Dr. Hollister had the team in charge for the first time and had poor material, yet it will be remembered that the work of the '98 Purple team was equally erratic. Illinois had a disastrous season. Two disappointing defeats early in the season by Indiana and Michigan somewhat disheartened the team and later Wisconsin added to their burden by running up a score of 43 to o against them, while what play was left in the Illinoisans was whipped out by Iowa on Thauksgiving Day when the score was 58 to o. — Minnesota Daily. CHEMISTRY NOTES --- This week the ventilating system was put into use. It works satisfactorily and the air is now much better in the labora- tories. The fan in the basement is run by a seventeen horse power motor. The class in Organic Preparations under Bartow began practical work this week. The Chemical Seminary met Thursday and was addressed by Dr. Dr. Battow on "The Chemistry of Butter-fat." The class in Toxicology under Prof. Bailey will hereafter meet at 10 o'clock on Thursdays. This class is for senior Pharmics, Medicys, and optionals, and now has some forty scholars. The library is being fitted up and will soon be ready for use. It contains the city 'phone and also one connected with the university buildings. In Pharmacy about the same number are registered as at this time last year. Judging from the letters of inquiry that come in about next terms work, it is safe to say the total attendance will be larger than last year. Prof. Havenbill's laboratory has just been completed and Prof. Sayre's is now being constructed. The Pharmacy department is proud of its new balances. The parts are all uncorrosive. The standard is gold plated; the beams are aluminum, and the bearings are agate. It is a very valuable instrument. It was made by Henry Troemmer at Philadelphia. The balances are used to test weights and in delicate work. There are two literary societies in the school of law, the Kent Club, and an ambitious rival recently organized under the name of the Cooley Law Club. Competition under healthy and normal conditions is always desirable, and by reason of competition both clubs will be benefited. COCLEY LAW CLUB. The first regular meeting of the new club was held Friday afternoon, $Sept. 28, when the following program was given: President's address, "The Paramount Issue." P. Dunham. Debate, Resolved, That England has Waged an Unjust War in the Transvaal. Affirmative Negative C E Wakefield L A Maris Fear LT Feltz C E Wakefield F D Copping. Address, Dean J W Green. Prof. Higgins has kindly offered to give a series of lectures on legal topics during the year, and these will be one of the strong features of the club. Only members of the law school are eligible to membership, but all students of the University and their friends are cordially invited to attend the meetings. Last night the Adelphic held its first meeting for the year. The Adelphic, like the Snow, is open to both ladies and gentlemen, and all who are desirous of doing literary work are cordially invited to attend. The Adelphic meets every Friday night in the German room. LITERARY SOCIETIES. Last Saturday night the Snow held its first open meeting. Miss Becker read a humorous selection and received a hearty encore. At a meeting of the membership committee on Monday the Swe accepted the following candidates for membership: Krk Logan, C E Carpenter, L E Scholl, J B Wilson, Dean Rose, R C Rose, Mr. Stuessi, Mr Metcalf, H S Tangeman, Ida Griffith, Ida Stem, Jessie Bennett, M D Baumgarmer E Krehbil.

Affirmative, E, H McMath, J B. Wilson. Negative, E, H Hirschler, R C. Rose. Y. M. C. A. Perry O. Hanson left Tuesday for a few days work among the Colleges in the southern part of the state. The meeting last Sunday afternoon was one of the best of the year Sixty men listened to Dr. Burdick's masterly treatment of the subject "Bible Study as a Biberal Education." All the Bible classes for the year will open September 30. The enrollment promises to be very large. Captain J. G. Haskell will again conduct the Normal Training class which meets at the Y.M.C.A house Wednes day evening of each week. The members of the Bible classes were entertained at the Y M C A house Friday evening. Speakers of the association have been sent to Haskell each Sunday evening since the opening of school. The Initiation service which was such a success last year is being planned for the near future. About one hundred and fifty men will be admitted to membership. Governor Stanley has promised to speak for the association any time after election. He is intensely interested in what the association is doing. The local work has been materially strengthened this year by the entrance of able men from other institutions. Among these may be mentioned J E Boyle, an A B, from Nebraska who is doing graduate work in sociology; he has been active in the Association at Nebraska University and has been secured to conduct one of the Bible classes here. R R Grant from the State Normal is another valuable acquisition; he will also teach a class for the Association. C E Brown was president of the Y M C Aat Highland University last year and is taking the medical course here. Several good men from Baker, Fairmount and other schools are here to contribute their experience from those places to the work here. All men of the University are cordially invited to hear Capt Haskell Sunday at 2:30 in North College. ENGINEERING NOTES, The first work in the new brass foundry was done Wednesday. A very good cast-og was made from bell-metal. No course in brass work is offered to students. The foundry was put in for the use of the shops. Mr. Hanson, the head of the blacksmith room has charge of the brass work. There are 77 Freshmen and 35 Sophomores and Juniors taking shop work. The Engineering school has more men than usual trying for places on the foot ball team. The engineers seem to be getting more enthusiastic this year than usual over foot ball. Those seen at practice are The motor in the Chemistry building requires fifteen horse power from the shops to run it. A seven horse power motor is being put in place in the Chemistry building for the Mining Engineering school. Algie, Meehan, Cutsbaw, Kirchmaeir and Nelson. The motor to run the ice machine in the medical building will soon be in place also. When these last two are in operation there will be nineen running on the hill. A new one hundred light transformer has been put into the Library, and soon new globes will be put in throughout the reading rooms. Students who work there at night will be gratified at this improvement. Prof Marvin has been at work during the summer and fall putting in a new hydraulic engineering laboratory. Part of the machinery has arrived. When complete the laboratory will compare very favorably with the equipment of other schools in this line. REPUBLICAN OLUB FORMED. A Strong Organization Perfected. A Serving Organization Perfected. After several weeks spent in preliminary work, securing members and making plans, the K. U. McKinley and Roosevelt club was organized at the Court House Monday night. The clans began to arrive early and long before the meeting was called to order the room was packed and only standing room was to be had. Great enthusiasm prevailed at all times, and the permanent success of the club was assured by the active interest taken on all hands. The club membership up to the time of the meeting was two hundred, and since then has run far over that number. Vice-President Tom Harley, of the club in 1896, called the meeting to order and addressed the club for several moments upon the objects and benefits of such an organization. He also gave a short sketch of the club of ninety-six A call for nominations for president resulted in the nomination and election unani mously of Ed Copley. The new president took the chair and made a short speech of acceptance in which he outlined the policy of the club and the work to be accomplished by it. The other officers elected were vice-president, C W Matson, Secretary L M Gensman and Treasurer E A Scholer. The only once over which there was any contest was that of treasurer. More for the sake of excitement than on account of the honor of the office, there was a great deal of friendly rivalry over this office, but Mr Scholer won out over his two rivals on the first ballot. The attention of the club was next directed to the work of perfecting a thorough organization of all the different schools and classes in the University. After a good deal of wrangling a plan was finally adopted which has all the features of a county central committee with its branches. By means of an executive committee and a number of subcommittees, a poll of the whole University will be made, and every republican will be brought into the organization. Steps will then be taken to see that all are registered in their home towns and that they go home to vote. This phase of the club's work is of great importance and will be very carefully looked after. During the campaign the club will have one public meeting at the opera house with some well known state campainfer as the speaker. The boys will also lend their assistance to the county central committee in Lawrence at all their meetings and rallies. It is intended to arrange for debates upon the political issues with members from the K U Bryan club. These meeting will be open to all interested, as are the regular club meetings In conjunction with the regular McKinley and Roosevelt club a troop of Roosevelt Rough Riders will be formed. This troop will wear the regulation khaki uniform and will be enlisted in the regiment of Rough Kiders which has been organized in the county under the command of Col. Wilder S. Metcalf. Those republicans who have not yet joined the club are hereby requested to do so. As many as can should see the club officers about joining the Rough Rider troop The club meetings will be held at the court house on Monday nights. Loca. speakers will be present to address the club, and open discussion by members up in the different political issues will be made a part of the programs.
