Inter-Collegiate Oratorical Contest. MRS A. J PRENTISS. The Methodists Took first place; * The Baptists second; * The Congregationalists Third, * and Kansas What was Left. FEATURES OF THE GREAT CONTEST Tuesday evening March 1st occurred the eighteenth oratorical contest in the Rorabaugh Opera House at Ottawa. It was an ideal day and night for the battle, the delegations were large and spirited, and the contest was highly successful from every point of view.

The decision of the Judges gave Mr. Loofbourrow first place; Mr. Quinn second place, and Mr. Garrard third place. Kansas University took the booby this year. It was a hard fought contest and every oration was of high merit. Mr. Loofbourrow seemed perfectly at home on the stage which perhaps had a great deal to do in gaining the decision of the Judges. The ration showed long hard preparation and gave the views of the author clearly. It was the general sense of the house that Baker should have first place. Mr. Loofbourrow was in the contest at Emporia last year with the same cration and made a good record. Since then he has done some hard work on the oration and brought it up to a win- It was a jolly rollicking crowd of college people that took possession of the little town of Ottawa and run it to suit themselves. They were out for a lark and nobody attempted to restrain them. The merchants true to the little university at Ottawa had their windows prettily decorated in college colors and the college spirit was in the air. All day Friday the delegations were coming in, their cries reverberated an' resounded from street to street and their colors floated gaily in the wind. The best of spirit prevailed until evening and the opposing colleges seemed infatuated with one another's company. By eight thirty all the delegations had found their way to the opera house and were anx- to have the battle of big words and long sentences begin. At 8:40 the contain rose and the twelve hundred auditors sat patiently and listened to the following program: MUCH COLLEGE ❸ ❹ SPIRIT AND THE ❺ ❻ USUAL RUSHES ner. He has a good voice and an excellent delivery. Mr Quinn of Ottawa had a good oration and fine delivery. He was well supported by the students of Ottawa University. His position on the program was much to his advantage as the audience was becoming tired. Mr. Felts of Kansas University made a fine appearance on the stage. And although he took last place his work pleased the boys from the Kansas University. The lateness of our contest prevented Mr. Felts working over his oration after he seen what his faults were. It had to be submitted the day following the University preliminary. The music in the program was well received by the audience. The Orchestra of Ottawa University was enriched and made a good impression upon the audience. The Jayawker Quartet made a great hit. Compliments were paid Kansas University on her quartet by students and members of faculty of several different schools. It was referred to as being one of the best quartets in Kansas. Their college songs were perfectly adapted to the occasion and easily gained the attention of the entire house. The foregoing was the mental part of the program. The physical part both preceded and followed the contest in the opera house. There were no rushes until the University delegation arrived at 7:15 p. m. Ottawa and Baker had even been lying in wait for their natural enemy since four o'clock and were quite weary of life by 7:15 The University delegation of one hundred was reinforced by thirty plucky men from Washburn. A little clean work threw the Ottawa-Baker mob off its guard and the University crowd was off the train and in position before it was noticed. Of course the K. U. delegation locked big to the pious one of the South whose arder was slightly dampened when they heard the ear-splitting Rock Chalk and saw the bold hundred. But the Baker-Ottawa mob ran ahead as usual and tried to check the Varsity line, but the line would not check. Three times did the gentle Christians throw their force against the forward rank and three times were they thrown off. The Varsity delegation rushed through all comers at the opera house and held itself in perfect order. Nothing followed for a time but yelling in which the Varsity combine held a high rank. After the contest the Baker crowd tried to rush onto the stage but were thrown off by three policemen—pasteboard policemen from Ottawa. At the train there were rushes but nothing of importance occurred. Mass Meeting. Thursday at 11:45 classes were ad-journed and everybody attended the mass meeting in chapel. The purpose of the meeting was to arouse enthusiasm for the oratorical contest at Ottawa. The chapel was well filled and the meeting was highly successful judging from the spirit manifested. The band was there, the University band and discussed its soul-stirring strains. Prof. Vickroy acted as chairman. The professor was chuck full of enthusiasm and did his best to inspire his auditors. Dr. Haworth was there with his good nature and humor and emphasized the importance of oratory and oratorial contests. Regent Hopkins, the good looking regent, was also present and talked of college spirit and other things. His old time enthusiasm cropped out noticeably as he spoke of the en-splitting Rock Chalk and the early contests of the University. Orator Felts was there to but he held his tongue until Friday evening. The big, burly Freshman were there also in tremendous numbers. They yelled in a deafening tone "Let her rip! Let her roar! Let her go!" Once more, Rock Chalk! Jay Hawk! Nineteen four!" Laws were there; Engineers were there; also a miscellaneous collection of upper classmen in the Arts school, but you could hear nothing but the band and the Freshmen. It was good to be there. LITERARY NOTES. The Snow Literary met at the same old time and place last Friday evening. The usual program of recitations, extempores and readings was disposed of together with several musical selections; Delano rendered a musical solo all by himself, and Graves rendered one of the same kind assisted by Poor. Our informant makes a note "both good." We won't dispute him since we never have known anything very bad against either of the latter gentlemen. Scoolll and Bunggardner thought the South was all O. K. in disfranchising the negro and allowing only white niggers to vote, but Edson and Kimpear said they would still stick by the Constitution. Schall had seen a fellow once who took (once) a pleasure trip to a health resort in Arkansas and it was upon the testimony of this fellow that he based his argument. But Edson who "has been there himself" succeeded in persuading the judges that his was the right cause. After a short business assesion the society adjourned. NO.21. The X Y Z Club held its regular meeting last Thursday night. The meeting was rapped to order by Pres. Boyle. The Parliamentary drill was led by Carpenter. Mozcher and Sussi demonstrated their keenness of foresight and regard for the future by ingenuously arguing for the abolishment of capital punishment; Ayers and Demosse, however, go to Sunday school and didn't care in particular to mis the sight of a tie party every now and then. Grant, who has recently joined the "Home Defenders," then gave an extempore on temperance and, we presume, said as much as he could about Carrie. Adjourned. The Burke met Thursday instead of Friday night last week with a large attendance of the sons of Erin. An instrumental solo by Severs was followed by a five minutes devotional exercise led by Ford. His text we forgot to inquire for Ryan read an interesting essay, and Gardner reviewed some of the happenings of the week. Jameson sang a song which was heartily received. Graves and Van Fleet hadn't succeeded in reading very satisfactorily (to themselves) in the recent quizzes and consequently were in for abolishing these instruments of torture Leighty and McWeighton had succeeded better and upheld them as being excellent developers of the subtlet physical qualities. The paper was read by Branson, and after a short parliamentary drill the club adjourned. The joint debate between the Snow and X Y Z Club will take place March 7, instead of Feb.28, as previously announced. Kansas - Missouri Preliminary. Three Men Chosen to Represent the 'Var- city in the Kansas-Missouri Dohate. TOLAN, CHEADLE, MoMATH, SELECTED The preliminary for the Kansas-Missouri debate was held in the University Chapel, Wednesday evening. The affair was not largely attended owing to the fact that it came in the middle of the week. Some of the best debaters in school had held themselves aloof from other contests awaiting the debate which had, as a reward, a trip to Missouri University, and a chance to meet Kansas' old enemy, Missouri. This resulted in a strong debate Wednesday evening. There were ten speakers, making the following program: (1) Copping; (2) Tolan; (3) J. B. Wilson; (4) Collagey; (5) Billings; (6) Chedule; (7) McMath; (8) Logan; (9) Mowry; (10) Curry. These having edd numbers took the affirmative, and those with even numbers negative of the question. Mr. Tolan was awarded first place; Mr. Chedule second and Mr. McMath third place. Mr. Mowry was made alternative. Mr. Tolan brought out the fact that he change from wood to iron, from sailing to steam ships caused the decay of the American merchant marine, in that British ship builders had iron at their disposal at a much less rate than Americans, as industry was better developed in England than here. We have however, greater resources of iron than all Europe and are now coming into a position where we can get at it at a small cost. English ship owners pay larger wages than any other country except the United States, yet they are able, without subsidy, to cope successfully with subsidized lines of other countries. The subsidy bill will benefit one man at the expense of another. Mr. Chendle states that we had tried a plan of subsidy when American merchant marine was at the elbow, but it proved a failure; fifteen million dollars was expended in subsidizing lines that were already in operation, but which, later, were bankrupt. France and Germany subsidize their merchant marines, yet their ship owners are not able to cope with those of England. We are coming back now to the power we formerly had and without the aid of subsidy our country will become a strong maritime nation. McMath says the United States needs a large merchant marine to supply labor for Americans end to give a place where American capital may be invested under our flag. She needs a large merchant marine in war, as it would provide a large number of ships which could be easily converted to the service, also provide a great number of men trained for service at sea. The policy of subsidizing would bring this about. England subsidizes her merchant marines and, as an effect, she has the largest maritime in the world. Our own experience, since 1890, in postal subsidy, has been a success and shows what can be done with general subsidy. The three debaters chosen will go to Columbia, Mo., for the Missouri debate, the second week in April. They are all old experienced men and strong debaters. It is expected by the students of Kansas University, that Missouri will get second place in the debate. Foot Ball Trip. Arrangements have been completed for a foot ball game with Wisconsin State University next fall. The K. U. team will take an eastern trip playing the game at Wisconsin while enroute. || Kansas UniversityWeekly Editor-in Chief ... GEORGE BARCUS Associates ... C. A. GARDNER C. J.

McMath, Business Manager, Lawrence, Kansas. LAWRENCE, KANSAS, Ma. ob 2, 1907 Base ball weather is near at hand. The occasional summer day causes the baseball man to think of the full grand stand, the prolonged applause, the hot linens, the flies and other things that make up the sport. Every day the prospect is growing brighter, more men are reporting, there is better and fuller practice, and the promised schedule is near completion. The schedule for the big trip is the best that Kansas has ever had, the trip itself is worth any man's trying for the team. This is the year when Kansas must make her record with the bigger schools; she should have done so last year but ran up against a circumstance. If Kansas could have defeated the University of Chicago last year her record would have been made. Once the game was won but was again lost so easily. There is no reason why Kansas cannot play base ball with the better known colleges. It will be much easier to win recognition in base ball than in foot ball, from the fact that it costs less to maintain the base ball. Equipment is less, there is no coach, no training table and the cost of transportation is less. If the team does not pay expenses on its trips, the home games will pay out and even up matters. If Kansas does win a warm place in the hearts of the bigger schools, and if the team takes long trips and brings home trophies, it means that every man on the hill, who can play fast enough to sweat, should show himself. Don't lay around and wait to be coaxed. When one of the pretty Pi Plais steps up and asks you to buy five copies of the Pi Phi edition of the WEEKLY, do not blush, or hang your head, or ram your straw-colored hands into your empty pockets, or try to change the subject of conversation to the weather, but say in your happiest tone of voice, "certainly." The Pi Plais are not working their heads dizzy for fun or for the litte's honor connected with a special edition; they are trying to make a few hundred dollars for their scholarship. Any scholarship is a good thing, and one maintained in the University of Kansas is of especial interest to every student and professor on the hill. The Pi Plais belong to the pneumaticized set in the University and they are showing that they are not puffed up or stuck up by working like slaves on their edition. They are showing pluck and backbone. Their paper will be the bandsomest thing that ever appeared in Lawrence. Show your royal blood by buying a half dozen copies. The Freshman class is the class on the hill. The Freshmen can have anything they want around the Weekly shop from now on. They have more snap than all the combined forces in the University. They were startled themselves by the manner in which they out-did all conors at the mass-meeting. Of course a Freshman is a funny being during the first part of the year, but he learns and learns rapidly. Do not turn up your nose at the Freshman any more. They are all right. Mr. S. T. Saton, the esteemed editor of the Olathe Register, does not like the English in the editorial columns of the WEEKLY. Of course things have changed slightly since Mr. Saton's time and it may be that he has not kept in touch with every-day University English. Perhaps it will allay the editor's gushes of horror when the WEEKLY informs him that it has not been criticised by the department of English for its misuse of the language. There are many college expressions that may pain the sensitive ear of a cultured English student, such as our friend is, but to the college student they are full of meaning and do not grate on his cultivated ear. Of course advertisements in small rural weeklies are of little value and the WEEKLY does not feel like remitting for the Register's artful sketch, but it will say that it was nice of the Register to give the Johnson county farmers those rare bits of classical college composition gleaned from the leading paper of the best university in the middle west. MR. TELLMAN'S SUCCESS IN SOUTH AFRICA, as an employee of the English government, is only another proof of the excellent training given to students in Kansas University. This case is only one of many which have come to notice, which attest the kind of men graduated. Nothing can speak better for an institution than having her graduates offered good situations and filling positions of trust at home and abroad. It makes us especially glad when, as in this case, we hear of another country recognizing our men as equal and even superior to their own in ability and practical knowledge. And now the Ottawa Campus turns its little gun on the WEEKLY. The Campus is debating whether the WEEKLY man is a "master genius or whether he is not." It is all up to the Campus to decide. Of course the editor of the WEEKLY, as well as the whole University, is in breathless suspense awaiting the edict of this sage Baptist, this prophet, this moulder of Baptist minds, this embryonic minister and journalist, this champion of "almanac" weeklies. The special number of the Baker Orange, containing the orations of all the speakers in the inter-collegiate contest, came in Wednesday. It is a neat magazine. The publishers are so proud of their work that they print their faces in the back of the book among the advertisements. They are handsome boys, it is too bad that they cannot issue a good paper every week. Lost week Mrs. Nation sent the University girls four hundred buttons bearing the inscription "A Home Defender." They were all eagerly gobbled up and for souvenirs. If the well-meaning old lady could see the T. N. E's and Elks wearing her buttons on their many breasts she would certainly give off a prolonged, vociferous chuckle of triumph. The editor of the Baker Orange still thinks the Christian Associations should dabble in politics, even after having read the Weekly's editorial on the Y. M. and the Y. W. in Politics in the University of Kansas. Metindists are awful fighters and yet they are a devout, pious set. In another column appears an anonymous jingle entitled "Paradise Lost." It contains nothing personal and the Weekly prints it without comment. If you have not had your picture taken do so at once. The present half-rates for Seniors are good only for another week. Then when you get your photo hand it to the manager of the Annual without waiting to be looked up individually and asked for it. The photos must be in immediately for the work will soon be in the hands of the engraver. BLAINE F. MOORE, Manager. Seniors. PARADISE LOST With astute manner and forethought A great and mighty change was wrought You see the passe coded distraught; You see the blase senior gaze With porch language and amaze Towards the priceless and valueless craze. Now we would trace from a sublime source This might cause of dark remorse; This potent, polignant nautil force. It has been famous all around For its tasteful and sound— But has it fallen to the ground? Sure is the boast of every jay, He is a ___ ___; Menial to a professor's say. Indeed, well is the saying rife: "Philosophy is the guide of life—" Vain, empty honor in the strife, 'Tis not the real true man of brain, 'Tis he afraid his soul to claim— Some yokel born the soul to drain. Toadyish chimers of the Oread Who think only of their grade And the honor that way made, Is it knowledge —or a token Of the etiquette that is broken When the mouth stands wide open? Some wise young school, may be, By truckling to the fraternity, Just gain a "tutorshipery" We raise our teachers here, we do, And still we know a thing or two— Strange—yet the tutors env you. Of course, exceptions to this rule, May often come and stay at school; Else would we always bepraise the fool. It is little right now to me; Better pie, bacon and coffee— Which most of us would like it to be. Will never celluloid collar betray, The man of boorish parts and way And leave him to obscurity? It is no tale of woe we tell; 'Tis our conscience to rebel— The society is going to--Sheol. Let it be an honor to be sought; Not a vain gewgaw to be bought— Let it be this or—or naught. Alas! Can we see no time set When this is but an idle threat? SOCIETY. Rufus Emery of Seneca is wearing Beta colors. The Betas have pledged Lee Gram ley of Chanute. Clarence Hindman of Olathe has pledged to the Betas. The Phi Delta are wearing colors for Clarence White of Council Grove. Tuesday afternoon the girls at O'Bryon's entertained with a delightful fudge party. Theta No epismis initiated Mr. Patmore and Lawrence Kwart of Topaka. The Pi Plis held initiation Friday night at Mrs. Smith Meyers for Mildred Chadsey, Clarabel Denton, Maud Rush Ruth Williston and Eva Olin. The Utopia club enjoyed an oyster supper at the Y. M. C. A. house Thursday evening. After the supper, the remainder of the evening was spent in singing K. U. songs and playing games. The girls of the Y-M. C. A. house gave a spread Monday evening in honor of the birthday of Ella True. Those present were Misses Pyle, Ellie Pyle, Meredith, Ewing, Stevenson, Berger, Lene and Williams. Miss May Lohr entertained very charmingly Friday evening with a progressive crokinole party. The first prize, a beautiful bunch of carnations was won by Mr. Faust, the booby prize a little batchet, by Burris. Those present: Misses Barth, Wilson, Connelly, Jessie Connelly, Wolf, Messrs. Burris, Faust, Bloom, Schalb, Robins and Manning. Phi Beta Kappa held its annual initiation banquet on February 22 in Library Hall. The initiates were received by members of the faculty and post graduate Phi Beta Kappas and most delightfully entertained. The tables were in T shape and decorated with numerous candles with pink and blue shades and with large bunches of pink and blue carnations. Pink and blue satin streamers were brought from the three ends of the T and fixed up in a large knot at the ceiling above the centre of the table. The colors were carried out also in the different courses. Covers were laid for a large number—about forty of the older members being in attendance, among whom were Dr.D. E. Esterly of Topeka. Prof. Carruth as toastmaster called upon the initiates for toasts on subjects of general interest to a college and made the affair more enjoyable by his own entertaining remarks. CHAPEL The attendance this week has been phenomenal; each day a regular Friday crowd has been on hand. Monday morning Mrs. Cora McCullom Smith was the leader, while the remaining days the services has been in the hands of the Y.M.C.A. Mr. Withington spoke Tuesday in regard to "Spiritual Awakenings" in general, and of the present special development of religious life here at the University. He emphasized the importance of this movement, this spiritual revival, which is perhaps more marked and extensive than any it the previous history of the institution. Wednesday Mr. Hauson spoke of "Jesus as a Friend." He defined a true friend, emphasized the value of perfect friendships, and held up the character of Jesus as fulfilling the requirements of an ideal friend. He made reference also to the special interest in religious things in the University at this particular time. Thursday the Jayhawkers quartet had charge of the service; each one took one part. Mr. Smith making the address, and they sang in closing "Ashamed of Jesus." Friday morning Mr. Tangentman spoke of "Jesus or a Master," emphasizing the authority which Jesus possesses, and also enumerating His special characteristic which He manifests as a Master. During the whole week there has been manifested a large amount of serious thought among the students, and the spirituality of the University has been elevated several degrees. GRADUATE CLUB The Graduate club will meet in the Physics Building on Friday evening, March 9. Prof Franklin will speak on "Original Work in Chemistry." Some interesting experiments will be shown. All graduate students and graduate faculty are invited. NOTICE. This is to certify that R. M.

SATURDAY MARCH 9. --- Clyde Miller, of Osage City, has been appointed private secretary, by Gov. Stanley, to succeed Henday Allen, of Ottawa. It is another example of the rapid rise that K. U. students make in public affairs of the State. Mr. Miller graduated from the art school in '95 and the law school in '96. He was always prominent in politics in the University. Last week there was a little local in the WEEKLY stating that a Junior had made the highest grade in the Constitutional law class. The editor has been roasted and coat-collared by a dozen fellows. The WEEKLY does not intend to story. It was only a mistake. Mr. Copley, the Law School reporter, was misinformed. There were four hundreds in the quiz and they were all made by arts students. Here is something that one Junior law found on the fly leaf of another Junior law's note book. It happened some time ago, but is good yet: "My dear Jemima: It is with great trepidation that I hereby do solemnly ask you to grant me the graciousness of taking your corporeal system to Miss Platt's dancing school next Saturday evening. Will you make me happy by saying yes? Yours in suspense, "Adjourned." WANTED.

Foot ball Manager Harshberger, was in Ottawa Friday and Saturday, looking over prospects for the coming season. The shops were closed on Washington's birthday and many who were depending on working on that day were disappointed. Manager Mains, of the track team went to Ottawa Friday, where he expect ed to meet the managers of the other college track teams of the State. Sawtele is designing a two-and-a-half horse power gas engine. He expects to have the castings made and then work them up and complete the engine in the shop. Prof. Palmer has removed from the Great Western Manufacturing Co., of Leavenworth, some very ingenuious instruments for determining the speed of rotating shafts. A number of brass castings are to be made in the shops in a few days. They are repairs for the dynamo in the Chemistry building and, also, some appliances for the laboratory desks. Prof. Palmer's class in Engines and Boilers is designing some valves for steam engines. Several of the best designs are to be selected and the valves made, and used for testing purposes. Photos of K, U. Buildings at Hoadley's The Junior engineers held a caucus Thursday noon to select a candidate for Junior president, since Mr. McGillory had resigned. Mr. Jones and Nichols were candidates, the former winning by a vote of fourteen to eleven. Although the contest between the two was sharp, the engineers will stand by the choice of the caucus and see that he is elected. The advanced students in ship work have completed twelve, No. 3, enery grinding machines. These machines were made for the Bates Machine Co., of Joliet Ill., and will be put on the market by them. This is nearly the first work ever done at the shops for private parties and this was done only because castings for the machines needed in the shop could not be obtained.

The news comes from Topeka that the University appropriation bills are passed and only need the governor's signature, which will undoubtedly be given, since the bills are according to his recommendations. The separate bill, providing for a fund of $1500 a year for two years, for the purposes of Geological survey, has not yet passed but soon will be. The total amount received will be $355,000. Of this amount $135,000 a year will be allowed for current expenses. $75,000 will go for the erecting of a new Museum building, $10,000 will be used for the completion of the Chemistry building. The appropriation of $135,000 a year, is a gain of $15,000 per year over what was received from the last legislature. Of this amount, part will be used in securing additional instructors where they are most needed; part will be used for securing new equipments, and the balance for the expenses of remodeling Snow Hall and moving the museum material to the new building. A bill empowering the Regents to use the $20,000 received from Congress in building a gymnasium was passed within an hour after the bill was introduced. There is no doubt that the regents will use it for that purpose, but it appears that the amount is far from sufficient, being less than half what would be necessary to build a gym of the necessary dimensions. It is intended to raise the balance by private subscription if possible. Another Mr. Fowler will be sought for. There is talk of trying to raise it from the alumni but nothing definite along that line has been done as yet. The location of the new Museum building is not yet decided upon, nor the plans secured. Thessa are matters that the regents will probably decide upon in their present session, or the one following. It is probable that the building will be between Fowler shops and the Chemistry building. Although there will be efforts made by several departments, two years hence to secure the new building, that will probably be given by the legislature. It is almost sure to go to the Law school. Whatever may be the justices of the demands of the different departments, the fact remains that the Law school has the best influences to bring to bear. The board of regents will be in sympathy with it an account of the number of lawyers on it, and the legislature, of which at least half the members are lawyers, or have legal educations, will be for it. Certain it is, that those members who are graduates of the K.U. law school will work for it, and statements were made by members during the session just at a close that if any other building were asked for in two years, the bill would be killed. That Pi Phi Edition. The Pi Phis will issue a special edition of the WEEKLY on March sixteenth. It will be newsy and handsome. The girls are working day and night and sparing no effort to make the paper the handsomest thing that was ever gotten out on the hill. The girls will devote the proceeds of the paper to the Lucinda Smith Buchan scholarship fund. This scholarship is given to any needy girl in her junior year—she may keep the money two or three years by paying a low rate of interest. The following is the staff for the special edition: Nottie Manley, editor; Ollie Leland, Elizabeth Warren, associates; Eleanor T. Miller, literary editor; Mildred Chadsey, sporting editor; Loren Leslie, local editor; May Spencer, society editor; May Kellogg, exchange editor; Inez Plumb, managing editor; May Copple, assistant manager. Success of a Former K. U. Student. Word has just been received from South Africa announcing the good fortune of one of Kansas University's former students. Mr. John Tellman a graduate in Civil Engineering class of '97 has just received entire charge of the Survey now being carried on by the English government in South Africa. Mr. Tellman went to Africa soon after graduation and was immediately employed upon the Survey. His excellent work and great ability soon attracted general attention and last month when Mr. Austin was forced to go home on account of failing health. Mr. Tellman was at once named as his successor. THE DEVIL ON EARTH. Marie Corelli's celebrated novel, "The Sorrows of Satan," the sales of which in this country alone are said to have exceeded one million copies, has been turned into a drama. This was inevitable in the case of a book possessing such theatrical qualities. The play is to be given here next Friday night. March 8. In "The Sorrows of Satan" the Devil is represented as the victim of man's evil nature. He is being punished through all the ages for his rebellion in Heaven, and is forced to mingle with men, exerting his evil influence, yet yearning himself for salvation. He can only feebly endeavor to do good. Whenever a human being is pressed his temptation, the term of Lucifer's punishment is shortened and the fallen angel is brought nearer the portals of the paradise he once effected to despise. Hence Satan's sorrows, compared with which the sorrows of men are t ifes, for each man's salvation depends upon himself, whereas Satan's is at the mercy of the whole human race. While the idea of the Devil appearing upon the earth is not entirely new, for Go the pictured it before, his character is absolutely original with Marie Corralli. Manager Wm. A. Byady is said to have cast the play with an appreciation of the difficulties of adequate representation. It will have all the requisite scenery, which is of a gorgeous nature, employing nearly one thousand electric lights, and the deck of a yacht storm-tossed at sea. At Bowersock Opera Houso, March 8. The Quill Club. The Quill club had its usual bi-monthly meeting Thursday at 4 o'clock. Miss Norris read a short story entitled "My Econym," in which she was artistically worked out an ethical problem. Miss Jones' story "In Olden Days," was a bit of Welsh history. The discussion of these two stories was very interesting and profitable to the members present. Some important business matters were then considered. Two committees were appointed by the president, Mrs. Hoss; one on membership and one on a con tition for the club. It was decided to hold a special meeting next Thursday afternoon to hear and decide upon the reports of these committees. Mr. Underwood's production of "Spartacus" this season will be conspicuous alike for the elaborate scenic environment with which it will be invested, and Mr. John Griffith's splendid rendition of the titular role. In the arena scene in the Circo Massimo, or Coliseum, where Spartacus meets and conquers the greatest gladiators of Rome, the whole interior of the vast amphitheater is shown, the auditorium of the theater seemingly completing the arena in whose dust fell so many gallant warriors and heroic martyrs. This scene is, without question, one of the most realistic effects of the modern scene painter's art. Mr. Griffith's production of "Sparticus" is notable also for the armor and magnificent costumes employed; the former was especially made by Fachs and the latter by Herman, admittedly the most eninent authority and greatest producer of historical costumes in this country. Taken all in all the forthcoming engagement of Mr. Griffith in Dr. Baird's famous tragedy is to be regarded as one of the most interesting of A Storeful of Spring Patterns. --the season's events.

The date is fixed for Wednesday March 6th and is to be for one night only Track Meet. Manager Mains received word from the Kansas City Athletic Association, saying that the proposition to hold the interstate track meet before that body this spring had been discussed and acted upon favorably. This insures a successful meet and has already had its good effect upon the track men of the University. New men are coming out and no body will have a walk-a-way in attaining a place on the team. If you expect to be in the K. C. meet, better come out at once. At the recent meeting of the College Board, President J. B. Unthank was reelected for the coming year. Miss Tomlinson was elected to the position left vacant by the resignation of Miss Van Doren, who lead the choir of music. The Wilmingtonian, Wilmington, Ohio, Miss Tomlinson was in the class of '01, of the Fine Arts department; but on receiving the above position she left school and took up work in the Buckeye state. The WEEKLY congratulates Miss Tomlinson on her success. BASKET BALL The second basket ball game was played between Topeka Y. M. C. A. and K. U. in the Lawrence Gymnasium, Friday night, an enthusiastic crowd witnessing the contest. The game showed some eleven work on both sides. Topeka won by a score of 26 to 22. The lineup was as follows: Farwards, K. U., F. Owens, and W. A. Smith; Topeka, A. Griggs, C. Grigs; Center, K. U., H. Owens; Topeka, May; Backs, K. U., C. M. Smith, Fees; Topeka, Fleishman, Kitchener. The K. U. band is again organized. The material is good and Lou Johnson is carefully practicing the boys. There will be about sixteen pieces. The band practices every Tuesday evening in the law room. NOTES FROM EXCHANGES. Minnesota University defeated Iowa at basket ball. Score, 38 to 5. Many schools have already bad their Junior prom.

Some students are mean enough to join the Y.M.C.A. in hopes of political gains. They are very strict down at Baker Even the stoves are reported for smoking. There are two kinds of ponies. The Indians ride four-legged ones, but the H. Hippopotamus is almost invisible here. An aged widow is the crankiest landlady a student could have. There is no food like an old fool. A girl's idea of heaven is a place where there are plenty of good looking young men and she the only girl. Some girls love to live. Others live to love. Some fellows think every girl that looks at them is dead in love. While some students pore over their books others pour. A girl in a rainy-day skirt looks a bad as a man in his nocturnal costume. Some men are always knocking on the idiosyncrasies of fashion, but if fashion should be disregarded, they would be the first to complain of other peoples' ugliness. It is hard to make yourself and your best girl believe you are only an average fellow.

Sold by leading music dealers everywhere, LUCS & HEALY, MRS., Chicago JUDGE DAVID MARTIN'S DEATH Noted Kansan and Eminent Lawyer Gone. Judge David Martin died in his home at Atchison, on March 2, after a few days sickness from a complication of pneumonia and heart disease. He had suffered from a severe attack of the grip, which lasted over six weeks, but had recovered sufficiently to come to Lawrence, to take up his lectures in Equity before the law school. It was very evident to all that his long sickness had destroyed his former vigorous constitution, and that he was doing his work under very great difficulties and much suffering. Judge Martin was born at Catwaba, O., on October 16, 1839. He attended the common schools of that state and at the age of 17 began work in a flooring mill. He learned the trade of a miller to perfection and followed it for six years. During his last two years in the mill he studied law. He afterward taught school, at the same time keeping up his legal studies. He practiced for a while at Mechanicsburg, O. He served in the army under General Burnside in the One Hundred and Twenty-ninth Ohio. Two years after the close of the war he came to Kansas. That was on April 2, 1867. Soon after his arrival he established a law office at Atchison and in due time was elected justice of the peace, which position he held for years. He was next chosen city attorney of Atchison. Judge Martin's career as a jurist in Kansas is widely known. he was one of the most popular judges who ever sat on the bench in Kansas. In 1880 he was nominated for district judge by the Republicans. There were four counties in the district then and Judge Martin was so popular in the four different counties he was overwhelmingly elected. Four years later he was renominated for the same position by acclamation and he had become so popular during his term that he was elected the second time without opposition. There was general regret throughout the district when he resigned the judorship to become a member of the law firm of Waggener & Orr a few months before the expiration of his second term. About five years ago a charge was made in the law firm of Waggener, Mastin & Orr, Judge Martin resigning and Chief Justice A. H. Horton of Topeka taking his place in the firm. Governor Morrill appointed Judge Martin Chief Justice in the place of Judge Horton. At the last election Judge Martin was nominated on the Fusion ticket for Associate Justice of the Supreme court but was defended with the rest of that ticket. Since that time the most of Judge Martin's time has been spent in his home in Atchison At the exet state election Judge Martin was elected by 25.000 over Charles K. Holliday, but a year later was defeated at the Republican state convention by T. E. Garner of Salina, Kan. The Judge's connection with the law school began in 1896 and had been continued ever since, he being considered one of the most interesting lecturers on the law school faculty. On Tuesday morning the chapel exer cities of the University were devoted to the memory of Judge Martin. 1 r. Burdick addressed the gathering and in a most fitting and beautiful manner paid his respects to the memory of the deceased, first reviewing the life of the dead man, then portraying his lovable and devoted character, and finishing by drawing from such a character those lessons which were so dear. Following this, the following resolutions of respect were adopted by the law school: The faculty and students of the School of Law, of the University of Kansas, have learned with profound sorrow of the death of Honorable David Martin, one of the lecturers of this school. Judge Martin's active career in this state as a lawyer, judge of the district court, and chief justice, extended over a period of thirty years of active, diligent service. As a judge he presided with distinguished honor. His great learning, simple fairness, sincerity of purpose and unfailing kindness, commanded the entire confidence of litigants and the affection of the people. Bench and bar alike looked to him in confidence as a pattern of judicial integrity and ability. He entered upon his duties in this University in the year 1806 as a lecturer upon Equity of Jurisdiction—a subject admirably suited to his learning and experience. His work was done with an enthusiasm, and withal, with that degree of personal kindness that endowed him to his associates and won not only their confidence, but the respect and love of the whole student body. We sincerely lament our great loss, and, amid our own personal grief offer our heartfelt sympathy to the sorrowing family, in this their hour of great affliction. Committee: A. W. Benson, Wm. L.

All winter there has been consider- bl rivalry between the College club and the Century club. Last Tuesday evening we girls of the College club showed our loyalty by going en masse o the basket ball game. We went early to get front seats and our line arty was highly successful. When the Century boys and girls came they took what chairs were left and sat down at one side. At half past nine the teams came out. The Century boys booked horrid in their red suits. Four of our boys wore dark suits and the fifth was all in white. Someone dubbed him snowflake. He was just all right and didn't seem afraid of getting his clothes dirty for he was always in the thick of the fight. The game began and soon became very exciting. Back and forth went the ball, now perilously near the Century goal, then approaching our basket. The umpire's whistle blew, "foul on Lovelace," he said. I guess Mr. Lovelace had been trying some foot ball tacies. We all cheerer when Mr. Foster throw for goal and was successful. Then the ball was tossed up again. Sometimes the reds would get it and advance it steadily toward their goal, when the blacks would make a desperate rush, sizzle the ball and send it flying toward our basket. Once in a while the men would all get into a regular foot ball mixup. Then the whistle would blow. Usually the umpire said "foul on red" and Mr Foster "throw for goat". He didn't throw as well as usuel but I guess his arm was sore for he had a handkerchief tied around it. At the end of the first half the score was 7 to 2 in our favor. Aster a short time the second half began. Our men played well and just to be generous let the others make a few goals. Then the Century crowd acted crazy. The clapped their little hands and yelled their little yell and whistled their little whistle and stamped their big feet. We had been told to yell with our hands and it kept us busy most of the time and finally we came out victorious by the score of 14 to 7, easily proving that the Century club is still the last century. TO BOYS OF SENIOR CLASS. The class of 1502, of the University of Kansas, having become cognant of the fact that the boys of the senior class of the same University, either of their own free will and accord or by having been invigiled into the assumption of such dignity by the wiles of certain insidious and designing politicians, have adopted, secured and worn as an insignia of their class, hats of a peculiar shape, and thereupon bands of a brilliant and disagreeable blue; WHEREAS, The said class of 1901 has departed from the immemorial custom of their ancestors and immediate predecessors in other senior classes, by discarding the funereal cap and gown which alone is considered sedate enough for the omniscient and conmpotent senior class, and substituted the aforesaid blue band. WHEELAS. They have forgotten their honor and their chivalry to the ladies of their class by the aforesaid departure from the principles of co-education. WHEREAS. They have thought to show their seniority and superiority by flaunting the same rags before the eyes of the class of 14.02; be it known that the junior class thus expresses its disgust, and in pursuance of that opinion BEIT RESOLVED, That after the serving of due notice on the said senior class and the publishing of this document in the "Kansas UNIVERSITY WEEKLY," all the hat-hands mentioned above will be liable to confiscation.

KANSAS TRACK TEAM NEWS. The Nebraska basket ball team finished its southern trip with the game at Independence Mo., Tuesday night. Out of a series of three games all were lost. The first, with Topeka on Saturday night, resulted in a score of 23 to 21 in favor of Topeka; this was the closest game in the series. The second game was with Haskell Monday night resulting in the score of 52 to 24 for Haskell. The final game was played at Independence Tuesday the latter winning by 35 to 11. It was fortunate that K. U, also could not have gotten a crack while they were distributing victories so pronunciously. The game at Ottawa Monday night between K. U. and Ottawa University was won by K. U. The game was fast from the first whistle, although K. U. had no serious trouble in maintaining the lead. The team work of the latter excelled although Ottawa passed the ball very skillfully. The scores made were as follows: F. Owens, forward, four goals, one foul; H. Owens, centre, one goal; Smith, back, one foul; Fees, back, one goal; Ellis, forward, one goal; Cook, center, one goal two fouls; Gartian, back, one goal one foul; Saudin, back one foul. The Haskell team by defeating the Nebraska Monday night obtained the championship of three states, Kansas Missouri and Nebraska. K. U. is the only team that has given the Indians any trouble this year and expects to win next time. The College Club defeated the Century club Tuesday night by a score of 14 to 7. The game was marked by rough play throughout, frequently taking the form of a foot ball scrimmage. TRACK. The committee on Track Athletics held a meeting last Tuesday. April 5 was chosen as a date for the Indoor Meet. It was decided to hold the local Track and Field Meet April 27 if the weather permits, otherwise one week later.

The seventeenth annual inter-collegiate contest has just been held. The University dropped just as low as possible and took the last place on the program. It is high time for the University either to drop out of the league ingloriously, or to make a glorious stand and do something. This thing of doing things half way should be stopped. If we are to stay in the league let us put our contests on a firm basis and accomplish something, if we are not, let us get out without further disgrace. The Weekly is not emitting gushes of horror because orator Felts did not take a better place on the program, he did well and deserved a higher ranking. Considering everything the students who heard him were proud of him. It is not the orators, it is the way hands are run here that hurts. There is no system to our contests. Felts appeared in the preliminary and won, and had just twenty four hours to get his oration printed and get it into the hands of the judges on thought and composition. He had no time, whatever, to recast or rearrange an oration which he knew was weak. Everybody knows the result. There is an association supposed to run our contests but it does very little running. It does seem that something should be done. Why can not the literary societies elect their representatives in the spring and let them have their vacations and the fall term to prepare their orations, and why cannot the local contests be held by the first of January so that the winner may have time to work over his speech before the inter-collegiate contest in February? This plan will arouse interest in oratory and will guarantee productions of merit that will be an honor to the orator and his college. Of course we can amble along in the same old way and hold our own fairly well in the inter-state debates, but we can not keep the pace set in oratory by the denominational schools where everything does not run to dancing and card playing. Every other school in the league has literary societies that amount to something, they elect their orators ahead of time and give them an opportunity to do something. It is not because we do not have orators but because our plan is not good that we are always in the rear. This eternal thing of always taking a back place gives the University a poor standing among the schools of the state; it places us on a level or below the smaller colleges, because people who do not know the history of our oratory have the impression that we make pretensions in oratory when in reality half the students in school are absolutely ignorant of the occurrence of the contests. Let us adopt a plan and do something infertile or let us quit trying. If the pretty Pi Phis have not asked you to buy five copies of their edition, they will next week, so store up a half dollar for that purpose. Their paper will be the handsomest thing you will have an opportunity to pay this year. Just now all the boarding clubs are observing Lent; so also are the students. There is absolutely nothing happening now-a-days. If your WEEKLY is dry and void of news do not get fussy, but think how it is and remember that the editors are doing their very best. There are no parties, socials or anything in the way of entertainment. There is nothing happening in athletic circles, as the season has not begun yet. Hold your cutting things until after Lent. The resignation of Dr. Taylor of the State Normal school to accept the presidency of the new James Millikan University, at Decatur, Il., takes another of the leading educators from Kansas. Dr. Taylor has been prominent in national educational circles for many years, and has written much pertaining to the teaching profession that is taken as authority. Millikan is a new school with a large endowment. Dr. Taylor will have a much wider field in his new position and a better opportunity to develop. One by one the founders of Kansas education are drawn away to larger fields, because Kansas cannot pay them what they are worth. The WEEKLY respects gray hair, age and dignity and did not expect to say another word about the editor of the Lawyer, but in his last issue he boasts so much of the WEEKLY's taking his advice, and is so presuming that the WEEKLY must speak. If the WEEKLY has heeded the advice of the Lawyer or any other paper, or person, it wants to beg the pardon of everybody on the hill. The WEEKLY staff is running the WEEKLY and feels capable of doing the job without anybody's assistance. If the editor of the Lawyer knows anything about running a college paper he is hiding his knowledge under a bushel. Just get a copy of the Lawyer and read "The WEEKLY in stating in its last issue that it had not been criticised by the department of English, meant the statement to apply to certain particulars only. The WEEKLY must admit that it does hear from the department of English—well, every once in a while." This statement is direct from the English department. What arouses the ice of the department are such experiences as "pious Baptist," "noulder of Baptist minds," and etc. It is not that Professor Hopkins is a Baptist that he objects, but he rightly thinks the expressions are in poor taste. The WEEKLY will try to be good for a week or two now. There seems to be a deplorable tendency among our University students and faculty members as well, to endeavor to effect their wants by the circulation of a petition. The custom has become so common and the causes of such little importance that a petitioner finds no difficulty in procuring signers to any paper he may wish to circulate. If the manager of the petition is a man of influence, signers seem to think there is no need of consideration or judgment in placing their names on the list of petitioners. This is a careless and unbusiness-like method and entirely unworthy of University people, and it is to be hoped, after the complication and embarrassment recently incurred, that hereafter, a signer of a petition will at least read over the paper to which he affixes his name. Within twenty years the Mount Orca will be grooming and trembling under the weight of twenty-five imposing edifices, 3000 studentels and 200 professors will daily amble up its steep side. The appropriations will be such amounts as would dumfound the present board of Regents; the courses of study will be as varied as those of any college in America. The graduates of the University will be better known than they are now and its athletes will be competing with the best schools in existence. All these things will come about because the people of the commonwealth of Kansas are recognizing the significance of a great educational center, because they have pluck and backbone and are prosperous and willing to pay for the education of their children, and because every year the better cultured class of men are finding their way into the legislature. It will be worth something to have a degree from the University then and it will take harder work to earn one. There will also be changes in the University itself. The organizations will be run on different plans and will look at things differently. The Y. M. and Y. W. will turn out foreign missionaries and ministers to uncultivated lands the literary societies will have on their roils the names of men destined to become famous in letters. The Eta Pi will be the leading fraternity; the Betas will be running a turkey incubator and entertaining the bells of Mars at their annual “pull!”; the Sigma Chi will be lay readers at Haskell the Phi Delt's will perhaps have an imposing chapter house, the Phi Psis will have Sunday school classes and will pay rent for pews at the Episcopal church, the Phi Gaus will have roused up, the Sigma Nus will be famous for their piety and the T. N. E. will be called the Cold Water League The Kappus will be doing associated charity work, the Thetas will give election dinners for the foot ball section and the Pi Phis will support misSIONes in the Philippines rather than give spring partits. The WEEKLY will be supplanted by the Daily Maroon, the Lawyer will be a weekly and the Auto mobile will be called the Flying Machine. SOCIETY. The Phi Psia have pledged Mr. Joe Ramsey of Topka. Mr. R, C. Russell and Mr. Porter Foones are wearing Phi Delta Phi colors. The Sigma Chis passed a very pleasant evening with a smoker at their chapter house, Friday. The Phi Gams are wearing colors for Mr. Charles Kimball of Parsons. Miss Gertrude Boughton gave a delightful afternoon to the Pi Phis Friday in honor of Miss Louise Moore, of Kansas City, Mo. The Kappas held initiation Friday evening at the home of Miss Katherine Searls for Misses Lewelling and Rehn. Last Saturday evening the Utopia club was entertained very charmingly by Mrs. Cora McCullom Smith. The evening was quickly and delightfully spent in college songs, solos and readings. Miss May Copley entertained with a dinner party Wednesday evening in honor of Louise Moore, who is visiting Gertrude Boughton. The new German club was entertained Friday evening with a musical given by Messrs. Lucile and Constance Carruth Mr.Hood, Messrs. Frank and Howard Carruth from Washburn college, who were visiting their sister Lucile. Phi Delta Phi held initiation Thursday night at the home of Prof. Higgins for Messra Prey, Russell and Fones. After the initiation they adjourned to Wiedemann's, where a sumptuous banquet was served. Miss Louise Aldie entertained a small company at whist Friday evening. A most pleasant time was enjoyed by those present, who were: Misses Graham, Sexton, Havens, Campbell, Flinton, Rice, Williams, Spencer, Copley McCrary, Moore, Messrs, Davies, Bradley, Burford, Nichols, Henley, Tilford, Milo Jones, Hegler, Newman, Merrill, Lovelace, Seddon, Devereaux, De Dano The Betas gave a hop Friday evening at their chapter house, in honor of their new men, Messrs. Emery, Hindman and Gramly. The Betas and their friends were Misses Warfield, Moore, Rice, Sexton, Leland, Plumb, Rankin, Alder, Armsby, Lehman, McCrory, Morrison, Barnett, Fraser, Messrs. Lovelace, Leonard, Bliss, Ed. Bliss, Nichols, Simpson, Davies, Burford, Cross, Shialer, Copley, Baxter, Toby, Sallee, Goddard, Felgar, Humphrey, Emery, Hindman and Gramley. One of the jolliest parties of the week was given Friday at the home of Gertie Bailey in honor of Miss Wisherd, of Cottonwood Falls. The girls went out in the afternoon and cooked a delicious supper, each girl preparing one thing. To the supper they invited the boys, and a prize was given to t he one who guessed correctly the most girls with their corresponding dishes. Those present were Misses Gering, Sue Gering, Kelley, Griffiths, Barrett, and Wisherd. Messrs. Smith, Rameys, Idle, Hindman, Carey, Garrison, and Russell. College Press. On the afternoon preceding the contest at Ottawa, the College Press association held its annual meeting in the parlor of the Occidental. The editor of the WEEKLY was elected president for next year, and the editor of the Winfield Courier secretary. The association chose the Midland delegates to prepare a new constitution and make plans for the admission of college papers whose institutions are not represented in the intercollegiate league. The contest goes to Winfield next year and the Press association will meet on the afternoon before the contest. Each paper will present a discussion on some phase of college journalism, and then the club will repair to the banquet room until time for the contest. There was much interest shown in the association this year. After the business meeting the association enjoyed an informal spread and proceeded to get acquainted. The Golf Club. There is so much interest in golf now that Prof. Sterling, chairman of the executive committee and president of the club, is thinking of extending the present course to the west and adding at least three holes. Every warm day the course is too crowded for convenience. The local club will have meets with Leavenworth and Topeka, and perhaps will meet Kansas City on the home grounds. There will also be some good matches between local teams if they can be organized. Professors McClung and Sterling will perhaps act as captains of the rival local teams.

Mr. Millin, of the United Press byterian church, was the leader announced for the week. The three mornings when he has spoken, he based his remarks upon the words, "Therefore I Hated Life." He cautioned students that they should not "go to head" but give their spiritual development due attention. Tuesday the exercises were in memory of Judge Martin, of the law faculty, whose death occurred Saturday at Atchison. Dr. Burdick made a strong address thoroughly fitting to the occasion and worthy of the man whose memory was thus honored. Our Spring Suits.. Cost little, look well and last long.

He indicated that the manifest tendency toward secular schools did not carry with it a tendency toward irreligion. The per centage of Christian men in state and private schools is growing constantly.

Many of the literary societies held no meetings last week on account of many members going to Ottawa. The after effects of an oratorical contest are not calculated to inspire literary enthusiasm. The girls of the Snow furnished an entertainment last week which proved quite a drawing card, as the S. R. O. sign was up early in the evening. The parliamentary drill was conducted in a manner both unique and interesting, and Mr. Roberts will have to alter his rules of order immediately or expect a cutting decrease in sales as soon as the Snow girls get their new book cut. The thing was also a face; this one entitled "Two Ghosts in White," and rendered exceedingly well. The program closed with a tableaux, "The Oracle." The boys expect to try their hands at entertaining in a few weeks, but they will have to rise early if they hope to acquit themselves as credibly as did the young ladies. LAW SCHOOL NOTES. R. C.

Smith, who sprained his wrist in practice Thursday night, and consequently was unable to enter the game Friday night, Alford playing in his place. Friday evening Prof. Franklin addressed the graduate club in the Physic building. The professor spoke on "I_n" investigation in Chemistry. The lecture was both interesting and instructive. A fairly good number of the club was present and was highly pleased with the lecture. THE PI PHI EDITION. The Pi Phi edition will appear next week. It will abound in rich things, will have some interesting half-tones and some good articles by Pi Phi alumnae. The girls are expecting a sketch from Mrs. William Jennings Bryan and will perhaps have contributions from other famous people. The paper will be in magazine form with artistic cover designing. PIANO RECITAL. BASKET BALL-K,U, vs,Y, M C A. the pianoforte recital given Thursday evening in University hall by Mary Wood Chase, of Chicago, was the best recital that has been given this year. The program was devoted to Chapin, and Miss Chase by her excellent execution showed that she was an artist and had a thorough understanding of the great musician. The audience was fairly large and very appreciative of Miss Chase's ability. THAT TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLAR APPROPRIATION. Wednesday Professor W. H. Carruth received a telegram from Congressman Bowersock stating that President McKinley had vetoed the bill allowing the twenty thousand dollars for the raid claim. The President is said to have acted on the advice of Attorney General Griggs. The action was a surprise to Prof. Carruth, as well as to the whole University. The authorities here were so sure of the appropriation that the legislature had already passed a bill providing for the erection of a gymnasium with the money. There is hope that the bill may be brought up for reconsideration. There has been a feeling among the students and the faculty that the amount of the appropriation was insufficient for a gymnasium, but it was thought a similar amount might be obtained from other sources, thus insuring a gymnasium that would be suitable for the growing needs of the school. The news of the veto rather dampened the ardor of the athletes as well as the authorities who have been working so long for the appropriation.

President Has Put a Veto to the Bill Allow ing the Old Free State Hotel Claim Will Cause Delay in Secur- ing Gymnasium. A telegram was received by Professor Carruth from Hon. J.D. Bowersock to the effect that the President had vetoed the bill passed by congress granting the old Free State Hotel claim. The veto was what is known as a pocket veto and was made by the advice of Attorney General. The point upon which the Attorney General recommended the vet is not known. If it is a technicality, Mr. Bowersock and other friends of the bill will attempt to restore it in congress. If this is done it will be probable that the claim will be allowed. If the objection is general it is not known what will be done. Mr. Bowersock has done all possible for the pas age of this bill and if there is a chance for its repassage in congress he will attempt to have it brought up in the next session. Mr. Bowersock did not give details in the telegram, merely stating that the bill had been vetoked by the President by pocket veto, and expressing his sympathy. The fact that the bill received a veto is much regretted by the friends of the University, and particularly by students and faculty. Even though this bill pass the house and senate again it will cause a delay of at least a year in the construction of the new gymnasium for which this amount was to be used. The Junior-Senior Difficulty. The Seniors have been wearing their new hats, with a band of disagreeable blue, for nearly a month. The Juniors met a few days ago and adopted resolutions stating that the Seniors must discard the distasteful band or the band and the hat would be liable to confiscation. There has been much talk and planning by both sides. The Junior and Senior presidents signed a contract Thursday by which the fight would occur on Tuesday, but the Junior class would not stay by the contract so the whole affair is now a conglomeration. The Seniors met Friday and decided to wear the band and voted every man who would not wear one an unworthy Senior. The Juniors also had a meeting and made plans for a crusade. Just what the outcome will be no one can fortell. The Juniors say they are not bluffing and the Seniors have already shown their blood. Of course if it comes to a free-for-all the Seniors will be haudicapped by being on the defensive and by being outnumbered as the Freshmen are also looking for trouble. Besides this there are a lot of men in the Law school and in the Pharmacy and Medical looking for blue bands. The mixup will perhaps be as int resting as the historic may pole fight if things come to a focus soon. A Wonderful Invention.

The X. Y. Z. club and the Snow literary society held a joint debate Thursday evening, in Blackmar's room. The crowd was small, but enthusiasm ran high. Colors of the Snow were quite in evidence. The X. Y. Z. club had no colors, but the members were patriotic and supported their debaters with a degree of earnestness which showed they expected to win. The question was: "Resolved, That we should allow Cuba absolute independence under her own constitution." Messrs. Hirchler, Harshberger and Hindman championed the cause of the Snow, upholding the truthfulness of the statement. The negative of the question was presented by Messrs. Boyle, Hulbert and Grant of the X. Y. Z. The debate showed strong determination on each side to win, and was indicative of much knowledge upon the subject on the part of the speakers. The decision of the judges was unanimously in favor of the affirmative.

Teacher of Guitar, Violin, Banjo and Zither Studio, 829 Massachusetts Street International Secretary the Guest of the Y. M. C. A Y. M. C. A. "One-third of our college men break down, one third rot down, and the other third ruleGermany." With these words Mr. Colton began his powerful address to University men at the Christian church Wednesday evening. His subject was "Student Temptations, the Battle-ground of College Life." The representative audience which greeted him, listened with great interest while the speaker demonstrated the fatal results of yielding to the temptations of Intemperance, Impurity, Sunday Study, Cribbing, Gambling, and Selfishness. The real battle-ground of the student is with these temptations and the victor is the man who will reign and rule. Jesus Christ is the only source of power through which victory may come. Mr. Colton was kept busy throughout his visit. He had a large number of personal interviews, met with the Advisory Board and the new Cabinet and strengthened the local association in many ways. He is a strong man in many ways; his personality is attractive, his experience is extensive, his sympathy with all lines of college life is real and vital. His subsequent visits to this University will be anticipated with pleasure. WE WILL PAY.. THE STOCKS AND FIBERS OF THE CITY --exhibition. bristol 905 Massachusetts Street.

HESS, MEAT MARKET. Telephone, 14. 937 Mass. St. Lawrence, Kan EDDY CONCERT. Mr. Clarence Eddy, America's Most Distinguished Organist Plays for Lawrence People Concert for Benefit of Pipe Organ Fund. Professor Penny was once a student of Mr. Eddy and for that reason he was induced to stop over on his way from Popeka to Kansas City. As there are many University people who are now familiar with Mr. Eddy's work, the WEEKLY will give a little of his history, taken from "Who is Who in America." He is a concert organist born in Greenfield, Mass., in 1851, and began to study music at 11 years of age, studying under Dudley Buch, at Hartford, Conn., in 1867; was organist at Bethany Church, Montepelier, Vt., in 1860-71. Studied piano under Loesckhorn and organ under Haupt at Berlin, returned to the United States and became organist for First Congregational Church, Chicago, and later was organist and choirmaster of First Presbyteran Church, at Chicago. Mr. Eddy played to the Centennial Exposition in 1876, Vienna Exposition in 1883, Paris Exposition in 1889, and Columbian Exposition in 1893. He has given recitals in the principal cities of Eurone and America. Wednesday afternoon the chapel was well filled with people anxious to get a glimpse of and listen to the skillful organist. Perhaps no Lawrence audience ever had the pleasure of listening to a better or more carefully rendered program. Mr. Eddy is a man who by his very movements holds the attention of his auditors. The program was a classical one, but everybody enjoyed it. The best evidence of this was the expressions of admiration from the music loving people and the generous applause by all who were present. Mr. Eddy was able assisted by Miss Celesta Nellis, who gave two splendid numbers. NOTES FROM EXCHANGES. The Disciplinary Committee of Iowa University has frequent need for the advice of attorneys lately. Topic—"The Judgment Day." First young lady—"Well, I imagine it will be something like examinations." Second young lady—"Yes, and I'll bet I flunk." Notre Dame has fifty-two Spanish- American students, and Pennsylvania has so many that an edition of the University catalog has been issued in Spanish. K. U. students should not complain of the space given to advertisers in THE WEEKLY if they could see "The Delpnic" of Drake University. It looks like a bound volume of hand-bills. NO. 23. BOWERSOCK TOASTMASTER. "The Midland," of Midland College, admits that "K. U. succeeded in making the most noise" at the State Oratorical Contest. California University celebrates her Charter Day today, March 23. President Hadley, of Yale, gives the address. President Eaton, of Beloit College, has resigned on account of ill-health. Beloit is still looking for a new president. Michigan has just defeated Pennsylvania in debate. Dr. Charles M. Sheldon Will Respond to a Toast The annual banquet of the Y. M. C. A. promises to be a notable event this year. The Eldridge House has been secured for the occasion April 20, and among the guests will be Congressman Bowersock, who will be master of ceremonies, and Dr Sheldon, of Topeka, who will respond to a toast. It is expected that several of the regents will be present also, while other prominent men have been invited. ORATORY AT K. U. The WEEKLY editorial of two weeks ago concerning oratory and Kansas University's place in the state association seems to have met with general approval among both faculty and students. Prof. Vickrey says our poor success was due to lack of preparation. Whereas other schools selected their representatives early in the fall and gave the advantage of drill and preparation at the University the reverse is true. A number promised to write but were slow in handing in their orations. As a result the preliminary was postponed time after time until it could be postponed no longer and our man scarcely had time to send his oration to the judges. A good plan would be to have each literary select in the spring two men who shall represent it in the final preliminary. This would give them all summer for preparation and the final could be held about Thanksgiving thus giving our representatives three months for drill. Prof Burdick believes our misfortunes are due to the general lack of interest. This is due in part to the fact that our literary societies meet on the hill and necessitate an unpleasant climb at night. The time and manner of selecting representatives are matters of detail. Kansas University is capable of sending out men who are winners and would do it if only the student body were interested. Prof. Hopkins says that perhaps the WEEKLY editorial was a little radical but merited. Poor oratorical contests are caused by poor orators. K. U. suffers in this respect as well as other colleges of the state. Oratory is as difficult of attainment as poetry writing. We have oratorical contests, why not have poetical contests. In oratorical contests we have attempts and people do not have time to listen to attempts. The oratorical association should be organized on much the same plan as the debating council, fixing responsibility upon somebody. Let the membership consist of societies, not individuals. Whatever is done should be done with energy and by co-operation of the student body and faculty. ANOTHER K. U. MAN HONORED. Sherman G. Elliot Appointed Connty Poor Commissioner. It is an enviable position. position. Monday the County Commissioners appointed Sherman G. Elliot, the present city secretary of the Associated Charities, county poor commissioner. It is an enviable position which Mr. Elliot justly deserves, as he is a man well fitted for the position. Elliot is a University man of whom the institution is justly proud. He is chuck full of business and a genuine hustler. He will always be remembered by the University students in connection with his brother, as the men who conducted the ever victorious Senior Play. The senior play committee expects to assign the parts of the dramatis personae of their play next week. After the spring vacation rehearsing will begin and be prosecuted with assiduity. A review of the personnel of the class of 1901 reveals the fact that it has several members of considerable dramatic ability. This coupled with Mrs. Georgia Brown's excellent work in coaching promises to make the play one of the best ever given in Lawrence by a senior class, GROWLS. The world moves on. Uncle Sam has no cause for complaint. Kansas still has her changes in weather. Kansas University still has the usual number of dunks and freaks. The WEEKLY is still the WEEKLY even though it did do a pretty little turn last week. What has happened may happen again and receive much the same sort of write up. Some follows come to the University expecting to get through on their past record. Next week comes the test. Will conscience rule, or will the opportunity to look on some other fellows paper overcome us? Kansas University students now have an elegant substitute for the worn out and much forbidden pony, the Automobile. One of the professors however is also up to date; he has prepared a sign for the coming examinations. "Hitch your Auto, outside." If you hear a man say "business is business," just bear it in mind he is trying to beat somebody. When you hear a man say that the world owes him a living, don't leave anything you want to keep lying around loose. In friendship, as in love, we are often happier through our ignorance than our knowledge. Generosity, to deserve the name, compiises the desire and the effort to benefit others without reference to self. The man who tries to live on faith and hope alone in this world will generally end up by living on charity. A wife thinks that handsome is as handsome does, when she asks her bushid to hand some money over. Dean Swift: One of the best rules of conversation is never to say a thing which any of the company can reasonably wish had been left unsaid.

ATHLETIC NEWS. The Outlook for the Tumbling Team is Bright--Other Notes On Athletics. TUMBLING. Although there has not been much interest manifested in tumbling at K. U. in the past, this particular branch of athletics has been receiving more attention this year and at present quite a number of men are working in the gymnasium each day. Three years ago, by the efforts of Beaman, Emery, Gray and a few others, a tumbling team was organized which was revived to some extent last year. This year, however, the team will take part in the annual indoor meet which takes place on April 5. The following men are reported by Captain Emery as showing up favorably: Voeth, Heinecke, Anderson, Kilgore, Bailey, Algie, Murray, Greenleaf and Gray. If Haskell enters the meet this spring is as anticipated it will be of more than usual interest. Show that you are interested in athletics and a new gymnasium by deed as well as word and turn out on April 5. Two class basket ball games were pulled off last Saturday night; Freshmen vs. Sophomores and Juniors vs. Seniors. The Sophomores and Seniors were victorious. The next game will be Sophs vs. Seniors, after which the Faculty will play the winners. The triangular indoor track meet between Chicago, Ill., and Notre Dame last Saturday was won by Notre Dame. Several records were broken including the broad jump and 440 yd run. The quarter mile record is now held by M. W. Long, of Columbia, who covered the distance in 47 4-5 seconds, lowering the previous record by one second. The Independence basket ball team, having defeated the Fon Du Lac team, in the series played at Independence last week now hold championship. Classes, elect your base ball managers if you expect to hold the class championship this spring. Perry Howard was in Kansas City. Prof Dyche spent Wednesday in Kansas City. Mr. Brown one of the Baker students has been visiting Glen Morris. Mr. Miners, of Baker, has been visiting Messrs. Thompson and Hankins. The Senior civil engineers have had a rise in their fortunes. The class in Roofs and Bridges has moved from the third to the fifth floor. The band met as usual for practice last Thursday. The boys are getting in good shape and K. U. will have music for the spring ball games. F. K. Powers of Kansas City was on the hill this week. He represented the Hudson & Kimberly house and interviewed the Jayhawker board. The Law school has grown enthusiastic over chess. They think there is no such game for mental gymnastics and they are just enough conceited to believe they can beat any one in K. U. If you wish to show your skill, and in the meanwhile get your brain really straightened out see Benest and arrange for a match game.

LAWRENCE, KANSAS, March 23, 1901 THE PI PHI EDITION. The special Pi Phi edition ambled in two days late on account of a lame foot but its tardiness only intensified the desire to see it. There are special editions, but there has never been a publication in the University that belongs in the class of Pi Phi edition. It is a rich sauce, rugged edition brim full of bright things, choice editorial matter, and clever sketches and stories. The paper is a well balanced one. There is just enough of story, sketch, editorial, news and fun to suit the most fastidious. The Pi Phis did not attempt to make a gorgeous issue, they wanted to publish an issue that would surpass the usual special edition and yet gain some good for their scholarship. They were wonderfully successful in both efforts. Next year it will be better for experience is a good teacher. It would be hateful to say that one part of the paper is better than another, more than that it would be a little dangerous as some pretty Pi Phi might appear with a broom stick. Of course the business eye looks with satisfaction at the advertising column since the project was a financial one. All in all it is a splendid effort. Every Pi Phi that wrote a dill is to be congratulated. The venture was successful because the girls worked, and worked hard. It took a little pluck to try a special issue, but the girls had this. In short the Pi Phis showed themselves capable and not afraid of work. If it came to a pinch the Pi Phi girl would not hesitate to plunge her hands into the dish water, or to slaughter a spring chicken, or to kick the cat off the back porch. 分 A Definition of the Word "Flunk." The meaning of the term "flunk," is best understood when considered in connection with the class of people who use it. It is not a term used in scientific work, in general literature, or in art. Its sphere is much smaller. The usefulness and value of this short word are understood only among students of the higher schools. Characteristic of the people who use it the word is concise and expressive. Then, too, it has a kind of distinctness—a separateness from the every day that is like-wise characteristic of the student. Flunk is no ordinary word. It is a word of disappointment, completeness of disadpointment. Its smooth liquid, beginning is in strange contrast with its abrupt ending. It is a disappointing failure where success is the only thing to be thought of. It is a miserable failure in the classroom, where everything should and does inspire to success. It is a betrayal of weakness before those who esteem only strength—a sign of indignation where sufficiency is necessary. In the word, too, is that which is expressive of the feelings of those before whom the flank is mad2. It is the sound of the only vowel in the word, a vowel expressive of contempt, a grunt of disagreeable derision. Insignificant as this sound may seem, it indicates in a remarkable way, in what esteem his classmates hold him who flunks. He is as unworthy of consideration as the breath that gives life to the single word which denotes the result of his efforts, flunk. Then in brief the word means failure, complete and miserable, especially in the college classroom where the unhappy victim of his own stupidity, laziness or misfortune is likely to become a disappointment to himself and an object of contempt to his fellows. CHARLES ROBBINS. ** In another column appears a very sensible letter from Dr. Wilcox of the Greek department. Dr. Wilcox generously permitted the editor of the Weekly to print the letter. Dr. Wilcox has the right idea concerning oratory in the University of Kansas. If we are to remain in the Inter-collegiate League let us do something. What we need to do is to put our contests on a better basis as was formerly suggested by the Weekly and then make the honor of representing the University mean something. This will not only bring better students into the contests but will arouse enthusiasm in orators which is now on the wane. There is now no question but that our debates are on a good foundation and are being engaged in by men who are willing to work to win. Of course we do not go into contests primarily to win; a contest is to promote good fellowship, to exchange ideas and to help the contestants, and occasionally win as Dr. Wilcox suggests to keep up interest. If a few more professors would join in the crusade as Dr. Wilcox has done, something might be done that would bring about a radical change in our oratory. Why not have the literary societies wake up to the situation right now and elect orators for next year? This plan need not keep men from appearing next fall; it will only put some men to work now and give them an opportunity to write a good production if they are equal to the occasion. The suggestions offered by several members of the faculty, which appear in another column bear directly upon the subject. These gentlemen seem willing to do all in their power to make that line of work a success in the University, but upon the student body devolves a large duty. The student receives the benefit and the honor from these contests and the student body should support them. The faculty can however encourage interest and enthusiasm in this line. The professor has the power of turning a students mind along any one line more perhaps than others, and should exercise this power to interest the student in a subject as worthy and as beneficial as oratory. The Weekly would like next year to herald the news of a great victory for Kansas University in oratory, in addition to the victories in debates. Let the good work go on. College enterprises, such as papers, plays, base ball, foot ball, track and tennis, deserve the liberal and enthusiastic support of every student or professor on the hill. Just now we are nearing the approach of the base ball season. Our base ball this year will be the best that the Varsity has had for a long time. There are two reasons for this. We have a better schedule than any management has had for ten years. To maintain this strong team and heavy schedule it will require a helping hand from every man and woman on the hill. The way to help is to buy two tickets attend every game and bring your trusty voice. Tickets will be on sale Tuesday after the Spring vacation. The first game will be on Tuesday after vacation with Haskell. This gives five days to procure tickets and make plans to attend the opening of the season. The reason you should buy tickets is an economical one. There will be ten games on the home field this year. . * To attend all these games, without a ticket will cost three dollars, but a ticket admitting to all the ten can be procured for half the sum. Everybody wants to attend all the games, so buy a ticket and go with the crowd. A large sale of tickets also gives the management a little ready cash which is a good thing to have when managing a base ball team. Our foot ball, while perhaps not a disgrace, was certainly not an honor to the University, let us all help to make a good base ball team and not suffer humiliating defeat as we did last fall. In his last issue the editor of the Washburn Review makes a strong appeal for a College Y. M. C. A in Washburn. Of course the Washburn men are nice fellows and are gentlemenly when they go away from home but Washburn should have a College Y. M. C. A. It is a good thing to have around it run right. It is much better to do a little missionary work than to fuss with politics and be continuously engaged in a mazy squabble Besides this a Y. M. C. A' organization adds strength tnd dignity to our educational institution; it does much right to uphold the moral standard of a school. A college is frequently looked upon as a hot-bed for infidelism and things when in reality it is not and should not be so considered. On the other hand a college should be the strongest agent for the promotion of morality. The WEELY will be glad to help the Review in its crusade and will even go so far as to loan the Review for a day or two, some of the leading Y. M. workers in the University. * Sometimes a little stroke will do a whole lot towards carrying a point, and sometimes a little incident will do a whole lot toward uniting an inharmonious body of people. The pre-em Senior class was never firmly united until the fuss concerning the blue hat bands came up. There were always two or three elements in the class, pulling different ways and diametrically opposed to each other. Of course there are fools, wise men, nefarious men, and liberal men in all classes just as there are in the senior class. To unite such a conglomeration of humanity is a task. Only an incident touching the pride and trampling upon the dignity of such a body can unite it. When the crucial moment came the senior boys were as a unit and the senior girls displayed loyalty never before seen in the University of Kansas. The senior class is now one and inseparable bound by the bonds of love, fidelity and loyalty. At the University of California they have a bi-weekly meeting of the student body very similar to the mass meetings which K. U. has three or four times a term. Each meeting is addressed by some member of the faculty or other speakers of ability. The object of the University meetings is not merely to afford the benefit of addresses by men of prominence. This is one beneficial result, but the primary purpose is to bring together, to strengthen the bonds which unite them one to another and to the University. The president desires that at such gatherings the students act with freedom and informality. The meetings are on the order of rallies singing and yelling helping to promote the enjoyment. The plan is proving satisfactory and beneficial. K. U. is in need of something like this. Lets joly up a little. ** The editor of the Pi Phi edition stoutly affirms that the WEEKLY is overstepping the bounds of good taste in applying the word "pretty" to the Pi Phis. As proof of her affirmation she refers to the Pi Phi picture on the sixth page of the paper. Well of course if we, judge from the picture, the lady has perhaps carried her point but you can't sometimes always tell by looking at a picture. All joking laid on the shelf, the picture does not do the girls justice. The prettiest Pi Phi girl girl is scarcely recognizable *** in the picture. The WEEKLY will still apply the adjective in the same old way. ** This is the last issue before spring vacation. The WEEKLY wishes every body a jolly recess and hopes to see all the bright faces return again more ruddy than when they left. By the by, there is no time better than the spring vacation to say a good word for the University of Kansas. High schools will close within a month and many high school Seniors are already considering a college or university course for the next year. A word from a student is better than an armful of printed matter Why not drop a good word for the University when the occasion offers. The number of students a university has does not make the school but it helps, so urge your friends to come to K. U. It is not very long now until the spring Orotorical Contest occura. May 16th is the date, and all orations must be submitted May 1st. The contest this year will be better than it has been for a long time. The man that wins will need to have a speech with something in it and his delivery will need to be spirited. Oratory is looking up. Better equipped men are entering the contests. If you are going to enter you will have to harry. It will be an honor to win this year's Spring contest; it will not be dishonorable to be defeated for there are a lot of good orators who expect to submit good productions. A handsome gold medal, the kind Congressman Bowersock offers, is worth striving for. * The WEEKLY acknowledges the receipt of an outline of the work in Economics and Political Science given by Professor Richard T. Ely in the University of Wisconsin. Miss Margaret A. Schaffner mailed the outlines thinking them of interest to the students. Space does not permit their publication, but they can be found on the bulletin board. The Automobile appeared on Wednesday. It is the same breezy sheet it was last month. It is a good thing and is receiving favorable comment from college papers everywhere. The men that are running the Automobile are worthy of the support that the students are giving them. ** *** It is quiet this week says the society editor, very quiet says the local editor, very very quiet reiterates the literary and sporting editors. In fact it is a little quiet. It is sad,very sad for a professor to give a quiz a day before Spring vacation,but they sometimes do it just the same. Dickenson, Rankin and DeBaugh are newly pledged Phil Delta Phis. The Sigma Nus are wearing colors for Orman Thrakkill of Galena.

Address D. N. Rose, General Manages, Decatur, Ill. Monday evening the girls of the Senior class entertained the boys of the class at a six o'clock spread at the home of Miss Auna Alford. The object of the spread was primarily to show appreciation of the boys' gallant actions in the hat band scrap. Covers were laid for about one hundred and seventy, and at each plate, as it was a memorial and a souvenir lay a little gray paper hat with a blue band. The colors were also well represented in the decorations. After the spread which was very carefully prepared an I much enjoyed, Miss Lillian Barth as toastmistress called for the following toasts: The Blue and the Gray," Nina Drake; "The Acting Chancellor—Mr. Spangler," Walter Hall; "The Senior Boys" Effie Pyle; "The Juniors," Hoyt Poorman. The amusements of the evening was much increased by the singing of some class songs suttable to the occasion, entitled, "A Song for Naughty One" and "Mourn song for Naughty Two," the authorship of which was not ascertained. The Freshmen girls will lead the Y. W. C. A. the Wednesday after vacation under the direction of Miss Roxana Oldroyd. The Y. W. C.

LITERARY NOTES. Last week the societies did not meet on account of the Kansas-Nebraska debate. In several cases the dates conflicted and the members generally were buy with the preparation for the debate. The Burke met with a large attendance last week. An instrumental solo by Graves started things off well, followed by an extempore by Murray. A paper by Regan was very entertaining. The question of holding classes in the University on Saturday instead of Monday was argued pro by Branson and Parvin and con by Jameson and Mecham, the parliamentary drill was led by Wilson. The X. Y. Z. club met last Thursday evening at the regular time and place. A parliamentary drill led by Pres. Boyle served to start things going, after which it took Metcalf about three minutes to settle finally "Our duty to the Philippo," in an extempore. Ethical questions seemed to be the order of the evening as Mr. Stuessi following Mr. Metcalf decided in the same decisive manner and the same short way "Our Duty to Cuba." Resolved that an education that does not fit the student for active work is not a financial success, was argued pro by Rhodes and Brandon and con by Ashbaugh sub Seammon. Needless to say the affirmative got the decision. The Snow was called to order with a fall attendance. The program opened with a reading by Colliday followed by some current events by Miss Whitney. A musical solo given by Miss Criss (very well rendered) was followed by a book review by Kinnear. Misses Wooden and Rose gave little extempore talks on subjects of the day, and McKeever finished by saying what they left unsaid. Miss Forest's recitation was well rendered and the program was closed by music by Hunsen and Her- D. STEVENSON JOHN B. STETSON CO W. BROMELSICK, K.

EDITOR: I was glad to read your editorial on the oratorical contest. It was right to the point. We ought either to do enough in oratory to win a contest occasionally or drop out of the league. It is undoubtedly true that the majority of our students are more interested in writing scientific essays on special topics connected with their work than in appearing before an audience and winning it over to their way of thinking. And in this regard we are probably more in line with modern scholarship than the colleges where future preachers abound. But we have some future preachers among us, a good many future lawyers and as many more future teachers who will some day find it to their advantage to be able to stand before an audience and tell them clearly and boldly and effectively what they want done. Are there enough of such men and women among us to make it worth while to join in oratorical contests with other institutions? Will oratorical contests make such men and women better public speakers? Can they do their regular University work and practice oratory at the same time? If so, I hope they will do it as far as they can and help to raise us to the position in oratory that we hold in debating. If not, let us withdraw from the league and keep out of it until we show some interest and ability and find time to train ourselves inpublic speaking. Yours truly, A: W. Wilcox. Mr. Robert M. Hamer law '93 is being boomed a little by the Star for governor of Kansas in 1902. Hamer has risen to an enviable position among Emporia statesmen and is going to be a big man in a few years. But Emporia and Lyon counties are holding so many important offices now and there are so many older men that Will White is led to remark that Hamer is a sapling now and that he should not be cut down, he must wait till he gets bark on him before he runs for governor. The Gazette is for Hamer, however, when he wants the job. Bob Hamer for Governor. A. J. MOAK, Hack calls promptly attended to. *Phone, 148*, LA WRENCE, KAM GEO. F. GODDING.

With Biographical Sketches Jaccard Jewelry Co. 1032 Main St. KANSAS CIGY. MO The Portraits of Our Presidents BY GENERAL CHARLES H. GROSVENOR. This Inaugural year, when the public mind is aroused over Presidential questions is a fitting time to issue General Grosvenor's book. Its sale it already tremendous, and will perhaps exceed that of General Grant's Personal Memos. Title Page Designed by Tiffany. Corcoran Buildidg, Opposite United States Treasury. WASHINGTON, D. C. Every patriotic American desires to read what General Gervon has to say of Washington, Thomas Jefferson Andrew Jackson and the other Chief Executives of the Nation. Everybody desires to read what General Gervon, the stuarch旧 Republican leader in Congress, will say about Washington, the son, the father of the democratic party. General Grosvenor has thrown into his sketch of Jackon all the fire and energy of his nature. The biography of Thomas Lincoln is as beautiful as the sunrise on the hillslopes. General Grosvenor has personally known all the Presidents since the time of James Buchanan. The General's book will therefore contain history which has served his own personal observations of these great men. General Grosvenor has served in Congress for nearly twenty years, and he has serviced his country in war and in Congress twenty-four large Photogravure Etchings as fine as Steel plates printed by hand, on heavy plate paper made especially to order. These 24 Photogravure Etchings are differ-ent in worth ¥2 each. These Portraits are made from leather or dorsely by the family and near relatives of the Presidents. Two years' time and a fortune has been expended in securing these reproductions. The complete book is well worth the money. When people sell it the most humble American citizen can own it. The biographical sketches are printed in large open type in two colors; the work is so beautiful that when people see it the subscriber. That the same sales is very enjoyable. There is one edition known as the President Edition de Grand Luxe, initial letters hand painted, Portrait hands written title page and illuminated, registered by the publisher. Orders and application for territory are coming in rapidly. A high class man or woman of good standing can soon make a small fortune taking orders in this community, quickly as the territory will be assigned soon Address THE CONTINENTAL PRESS.
