Protsch THE TAILOR 717. Mass. St. Ground Floor UNFORTUNATE. Mr. Howe, Editor of the Atchison Globe Expresses His Appreciation of the K. U. Class of Journalism. In a recent issue of the Atchison Globe, Mr. Ilowe, the editor, has presented the following editorial, which is very interesting and rather amusing: UNFORTUNATE. "The class of journalism at the State University will result in only one thing: Making this world harder than ever for editors. When a Young Thing with long hair is graduated from this class, and returns home he will at once begin the writing of impossible articles for his home paper. When they are refused, he will abuse the editor. He will discover that the editor never having been a member of the class in journalism, doesn't know enough to put a barrel right side up for catching rain The editors of Kansas papers, who encourage this piece of foolishness by giving lectures before the class, deserve the criticism they will some day get." NEWS ITEMS. Mr. Howe's attitude toward the class of journalism, and the Kansas editors who considered it worth while to address the class, is entirely serious enough. Self-preservation is one of the most important laws of life—but cheer up, Mr. Howe, there is no immediate cause for fear. But by the way, Mr. Howe, did you know that every member of the present class of journalism is also a member of some newspaper staff, and that now and then some of the class STUFF is innocently reprinted in the Atchison Globe. At the beginning of next term Prof. Lawrence will give a course of lectures on the English drama, exclusive of Shakespeare. This is a new course and is not listed in the catalogue. In chapel Tuesday morning Dr. Strong made a short address, welcoming the students back to their work and telling how the University had been kept before the public during the holidays. He mentioned the teacher's convention at Topeka,which 109 K.U. students attended. He also commended the county club organizations which gave high school banquets during the holidays. The address was closed with a few brief comments on the national conventions in St. Louis, Cincinnati, Chicago and Ann Arbor, which were attended by various members of the faculty. Ex-Senator Taylor made a very pleasing and interesting talk in chapel Friday morning. His talk was confined to the growth and results of co-education. MR. WHITMAN'S ADDRESS. Mr. R. R. Whitman, advertising manager of the the Kansas City Journal, addressed the class of journalism Friday morning upon "The Relation Between the Business and Editorial Ends of a Newspaper." Those who heard Mr. Whitman can easily understand how he holds the position he holds on the Journal. He is a business man through and through and knows what he is talking about. His address was decidedly interesting and unusually thorough and convincing. Mr. Whitman laid especial stress on the value of the opportunities which the business of advertising offers to one about to chose a profession.

The first meeting of the Quill Club since the holidays was well attended and proved to be very interesting. As there was but little business, the time was devoted to the two very enjoyable papers presented by Miss Agnes Unruh and Miss Margaret Lynn. Miss Unruh's subject was "The School Teacher in Fiction." Her treatment of the different teachers she mentioned was sympathetic and yet concise. The paper had the rare quality of being interesting to the reader who had never been closely associated with those who would be peculiarly interested in the subject because of the nature of their work. Miss Unruh's style is always pleasing and the paper she read received no adverse criticism Miss Lynn read a college story written in her own college days. It was a very realistic sketch and proved so absorbing that the members of the Club forgot to note criticisms. In order to have any unfavorable comments offered, Miss Lynn was obliged to criticise the paper herself which, as she informed us, was not a story at all but a sketch of a situation and the situation itself did not merit the long account she had given it! No one seemed to question her criticisms, and yet the sketch had proved quite as interesting as a real story and far more true to life than the average story is, in that it left the reader uncertain of the final result of the incidents she had woven together and even unpleasantly conscious that the chief character in the sketch, could not "live happily forever after," however much he deserved such good fortune. George Nutting, editor of the Senior Annual, has announced his editorial staff. The seniors chosen are Charles L. Edson, Russell Kilgore, C. W. Ashbaugh, Murray Hill, and Misses Ethel Murphy, Florence Forrest, Mary Johnson, Jennie Barrett and Mabel McLaughlin. TEMPLE OF FRATERNITY. Ground is Broken for a World's Fair Building which will be Fraternity Headquarters in 1904. The Temple of Fraternity, which will be one of the most ornate of the small buildings on the World's Fair grounds, is well under way. Ground was broken for this structure some time ago and construction begun. The contractor promises that before snow falls he will have it enclosed, and that when the Fair opens next spring it will be ready for the holding of the elaborate functions which are planned to be given under its roof. The Temple, which is a modern club house, occupies an advantageous site in almost the exact geographical center of the grounds. It is on the hill across Skinner road east of the main entrance to the Palace of Agriculture, and is immediately south of California's State building. The Temple is being put up with money subscribed by the various fraternal organizations throughout the world. Its furnishings will be elaborate. It will be headquarters for the members of the fraternal organizations when they attend the Fair. September 26 has been set aside as Temple of Fraternity Day, BAKSET BALL The Kansas University basketball team defeated the "Mutes" of Olathe last night by a score of 35 to 10. Although the 'Varsity boys won, the "Mutes" put up the better game in passing the ball, but were very weak in throwing goals. The game was interesting and was witnessed by a fair sized crowd. REGARDING FORENSICS. Forensics will be returned on Thursday, Janurary 14, 1904, from 9 to 10 a. m. Students are requested to note that until a paper has been called for and re-deposited, no credit is given. NO.14. Meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

STUDENTS may be divided into two classes—those who work and those who keep others from working. * NO ONE doubts for a minute the truth of the statement that pride goeth before a fall, but the recent ice and snow on the Adams street hill has led many students to believe that pride also goeth after a fall. SO FAR as is known the University of Kansas has made no resolution for the New Year. The making of resolutions seems to be left to the students. And since, after all, the students are really the university, it may be well enough for us to look about and make a few resolves for the good of old K. U. What a fine thing it would be if every student would make up his mind to do something this year that would really benefit the university—that would make the university better off for his having attended it. What if our athletes, and our actors, our orators, our debaters, our musicians, our everybody were all working unselfishly for K. U. What would we not accomplish? What would happen if we would all resolve to simply stop "knocking" for a year and would support student enterprises? Or if we "knock," knock in the right way—knock the hissing accent off our sky-rocket yell, for example, and the long drawn out groan at the close of our melodious Rock Chalk! Jay Hawk! K. U.! What if every one would resolve to just stop "grafting" for a year—would work less for self and more for the university—would spend the profits derived from various student enterprises on the university itself—would buy uniforms tor our band, and help improve McCook field? Would not every one and everything connected with K. U. be better off, and the kingdom of heaven be just a little nearer at hand?

INTERCOLLEGIATE NEWS. The St. Louis Exposition management has made an appropriation for the construction of a barracks and parade grounds for the use of military organizations and cadet corps who visit the World's Fair. Military campaigns from the colleges throughout the country are to be invited to avail themselves of the use of the barracks. Exhibition drills are to be given by the different college companies. At a meeting of the University of Wisconsin students who are patrons of the livery men of Madison, a proposition was considered to form a protective association to compel the owner of the necessary adjuncts to social functions to be more reasonable than they now are in their scale of charges. If necessary the students are determined to boycott the grasping liverymen and in future walk to the college dances. It is claimed that the prices for livery in Madison are exorbitantly high. An inter-fraternity committee to consult with the men who control the supply of carriages has been appointed. Northwestern University is offering courses to business men. It believes that many men who can distinguish the good and bad points in a business proposition are sadly outclassed in the intricacies of English grammatical construction. To give business men who desire a taste of college education an opportunity to improve their composition, the university will next quarter offer "extension courses in practical English." The courses are named "Good English for Business Men;" "Business Methods of Teaching English;"and "Literary Composition." A Pan-Hellenic Whist Tournament is the latest amusement devised at the University of Iowa. The fraternities think that a whist tourney would create as much heat and blood as the base ball inter traternity league. The men of Iowa are said to be expert in manipulating trumps and aces, and a lively time is assured the contestants. The tourney will be held at the beginning of the Winter Quarter. An interfraternity bowling league is also proposed. The "Jackson Club" of the University of Indiana is planning a political banquet in January at which William Jennings Bryan will speak. An inter-fraternity bowling league has been formed at the University of Wisconsin. The Sigma Nu fraternity has completed the erection of a new chapter house at the University of Illinois. There are twenty rooms in the building. A large hall room is on the top floor. The cost of erection is $20,000. THE CHARGE OF MY DAD.

Sitting in "two fr" smoke, Despiring am I broke, Busted and ruined. Reeled from the awful stroke, I and the girls have broke, Shattered and surrendered. Roll on. By loss of six hundred V. Duns on the right of me, Duns on the left of me, Duns from behind me, Dunned and plundered. Stormed at by landlord's wife, Chased with a butcher-knife, Scared to an inch of life. Why this awful raid? Cause the room rent is not paid. Send me a check, will you? Send me three hundred? Then a letter drew, Hit him in the three hundred. When can my debts be paid? O, the wild charge is made! Gone was the farm to smash, Lost by my spending rash, All of my daddy's cash; All I had plundered. --in the city, are here and at NO FANCY PRICES either. They are elegantly made and fit to perfection. All I had plundered. AN ESSAY ON HABIT. A school master once said to his pupils that to the boy who would make the best piece of composition in five minutes on "How to Overcome Habit" he would give a prize. When the five minutes had expired a lad of nine years stood up and said: "Well, sir, habit is a bad thing to overcome. If you take off the first letter it does not change 'abit.' If you take off another letter you still have a 'bit' left. If you still take off another, the whole of 'it' remains. If you take off another it is not totally used up, all of which goes to show that if you want to get rid of a habit you must throw it off altogether." He won it. A member of one of Princeton's famous teams of the "eighties" attributed the success of "old Nassau" to the absence of secret societies. The tenor of his opinion was that at Princeton every one is imbued with the spirit first and foremost of duty to his college, and that this results in bringing the best men to the front; the necessary implication being that at the university the choice of members of the team is in no way influenced by the prejudice of social connections, as might be the case at some other colleges, where, other things being anywhere near equal, the society man would have the advantage. This opinion was not concurred in by the Harvard men or the Yale men, who declared convincingly that secret societies had no such prejudicial influence at those universities.

Clark Jacoby attended the Teacher's Association meeting in Topeka during the holidays.

Society life at the University after the Christmas holidays concentrates itself, for a time at least, in the spring parties, and the first of these this year was given Wednesday evening at Pythian hall by the Kansas Alpha chapter of Phi Kappa Psi. The party was a most enjoyable affair, and its being the opening of the series to be given by all the fraternities lent an added charm. The hall was prettily decorated in bunting in the fraternity colors, with pennants of all sorts around the walls. The balcony looked especially well, being arched with evergreens studded with red lights, which gave a charmingly cozy effect to that part of the hall. Elaborate refreshments were served in two courses during the evening. The out-of-town guests present were Misses Fassler and Lakin of Topeka, Arthur Peters, Joe Dyer, Fred Lee, Herbert Findlay, and Arthur Isaacson of Kansas City, Frank Merrill of Paola, and Raleigh Fife of Chanute.

The wedding took place New Year's day, at the home of the bride, and was very quiet, the only guests being the immediate family. On Friday evening Pythian Hall was the scene of the Annual Spring Party of Beta Theta Pi fraternity. This historic hall has been the background for so many spring parties that it is almost impossible to introduce any new features by the way of decorations and the like. But after all, the success of a party depends upon the quality of the music and the congeniality of the dancers. The dance last night was a decided success. The music was fine and everybody knew everybody else and every one felt like dancing. The evening will be a long remembered one. Among the out of town guests were: the Misses Cecil Leland, Mary Dudley, Lillian Dougherty, Anna Warfield, Caroline Armnsby, Olive Smith; Messrs Dan Hammit, Lacey Simpson, Stu Simpson, S. S. Brown, Clarence Hindman, Lieut. Warfield, Wallace Downing, and M. R. Whitman and wife. Jay Love has been using a crutch this week as the result of an injury received in a New Year's football game.

Box 149, Chicago, Illinois 60605 The Chicaya The name of Grau has been known to the theatre going public for over half a century as being in the foremost rank as producers of high class novelties and comic operas, and the city of Lawrence should consider itself very fortunate indeed when it hears that the management of the Bowersock Opera House has secured the world famous Jules Grau Opera Company for an engagement Monday, January 11. Mr. Grau brings with him his celebrated organization, which is the best of its kind traveling,and is better this year than ever, as he has secured new artists, and will present the great comic opera success, "El Capitan," which has won such great approbation everywhere it goes. The costumes are all new and gorgeous and the scenery was specially painted for this production. Paul Gilmore's New Role "The Mummy and the Humming Bird" must be voted a genuinely good entertainment. It is of the society comedy-drama sort, and, being of that sort, comprises the usual elements, though combining them in an unusual fashion. Lord "Jack" Lumley (Paul Gilmore), "the Mummy," a scientist, devoted to pursuing chemical facts and engrossed in laboratory work, temporarily neglects his wife. Mr. Gilmore is to be congratulated in his happy find of a vehicle for his peculiar talents. Lumley suits him, and fits him as comfortably as an old coat, as did the "Tyranny of Tears" last season. Seemingly he is a more natural Paul Gilmore than ever before. Lumley is a part that actors must love—in which any actor might revel. It "takes" from the word go. Lumley's every motive is seconded by an impulse in the audience—except his overweening fondness for chemical facts, to the temporary exclusion of "My Lady." The bright lines are his lines, and, incidentally, the dialogue illuminates with many a bright bit. The situations are his. Lumley is not the whole, but a large part of the show. The play is well balanced, and the secondary parts fall to capable hands. The play will be seen at the Bower-sock Opera House on Saturday evening. January 16.

Poor Richard Junior's Philosophy When you say a really good thing, stop. Central Europe occasionally reminds us that South American revolutions might be worse. The less you want to know people the more people want to know you. Some men remain poor because they haven't enough friends, and some because they have too many. A jack of all trades is a jack, all right. Great men had good mothers, but if all great mothers had great sons there would be a surplus. Impertinence is interesting until it grows up. Most self-made men would put in a college education if they had the job to do over again. The big prizes are won by those who have their heads ill oftener than by those who have their hands full.

Cone, '01, came down from Riley, Kansas, to visit his parents last week. J. W. Risdon, '02, returned to the University Medical College at Kansas City the early part of the week. Risdon says pathology agrees very well with him—improves his eyesight. J. W. Searcy, '03, has left Chauute and is holding down a position in the drug store of W. E. Moyer of Atchison, Kansas. Verily the drug clerks do change locations—very frequently. Prof. G. F. Weida, '88, formerly of the State Agricultural College at Manhattan, left that institution last fall, so we are informed, and is now located at Ripon, Wisconsin. Our classmate, C. H. Cain,'01, was in Lawrence last week. Cain came down on a business trip. He is building up a good drug trade in Tonganoxie. It may be news to the class to know that Cain has become quite a heavy weight. We regret to state that our treasurer, O. L. Hankins, '02, formerly clerk for the City Drug Store, has left for Dighton, Kansas, where he may go into business. Mr. Hankins, besides being a good clerk, has been a good treasurer as well, and the Association has lost an efficient officer. We wish him success in his new venture. D. H. Spencer, '97, who is employed in one of the Garlich's pharmacies at St. Joe, came home Thursday evening for a short stay. Mr. Spencer reports business good in the Missouri city, especially during the holidays. Clippings from Western Life. The man who marries a grass widow cannot be charged with buying green goods. It would be more in keeping with the fitness of things if flying machines were made pipe shape rather than cigar shape. Some of his enemies try to make out that the sultan of Turkey is a coward, but the evidence is dead against them. He has thirty or forty wives. Spooning over a picket fence is a kind of picketing that is not tabooed by the lover's union. Being simple minded people, Eskimos cannot see why any one should take off his hat to the iceman. All the world loves a lover except the girl's father. He tolerates him. University Lecture Course. Dr. Edward A. Stiner will give a lecture on Tolstoi as the second number of the University Lecture Course next Friday evening, January 15. Dr. Stiner is a personal friend and disciple of the great social philosopher and has been writing much for the magazines and newspapers in the effort to spread Tolstoi's doctrines in this country.

U. 25; TOPEKA 22 TheVarsity basket bell team defeated the Topeka Y.M.C.A. team in a close game Thursday night by a score of 25 to 22. The game was a very hard one throughout and very rough. Many fouls being given on both sides. The K, U. team did not play together in the first half and at the end of the half the score 14 to 10 in favor of Topeka, but in the second half the boys got together and with the aid of 4 goals and seven free throws won the game. The team work of the Topeka boys was good and they were clean in their handling of the ball while the Varsity fumbled several times. Capt. Allen made eleven free throws. Griggs of Topeka made twelve. Kansas made seven goals to Topeka five. TOPEKA POSITION KANSAS. Griggs forward Hicks Stoves forward Fleishman Millice center Allen Hope back Brown Cain back McCanley The K. U.-Haskell basket ball game bids fair to be one of the hardest games K. U. will have this season and will be well worth the price of admission. Haskell always plays a good fast game and looks upon the Varsity as a worthy rival. Manager Plank is making every effort to make a success of the game and has provided room and seating space in the gymnasium for all who will come. BASKET BALL TRIP The basket ball team will leave January 29 for William Jewell, where the first game of their trip will be played. They pay Wm.

The prospects for a good team are very promising. Many of the old men will be back and several good ball players have entered this year. Either Manager Plank or Dr Naismith will accompany the team and probably one substi tute will be taken along. The base ball applicants have commenced signing up for the positions they will try tor and work in the gymnasium will commence soon. BASE BALL. Manager Plank has been very busy getting a schedule arranged and reports good progress. Games have been arranged with Manhattan, Emporia, Wichita, Ottawa, Lindsborg and Fayettville, Ark., and Mr. Plank proposes a trip east to Chicago and back through Wisconsin, Iowa and Missouri with games to be played with many of the principal colleges of those states. RECOLLECTIONS OF TOLSTOY. Prot E. A. Steiner Tells of the Great Reformer and His Work. Professor Edw. A. Steiner lectured last night in University Hall upon "Personal Recollections of Tolstoy." The lecture was one of the most interesting ever given at the university Prof. Steiner described the persistence with which Tolstoy has worked for the uplifting of humanity, how the Count has thrown off all claims to title and rank and completely devoted himself to the welfare of the peasant classes. In order to maintain their confidence he has become a labore like themselves, affects the peasant mode of dress and even lives upon their frugal, simple diet. In his work for social reform Tolstoy's watch word is "sacrifice." The man who would make things better socially must give up something himself. Tolstoy is not in sympathy with the organized Nihilism of Russia. He is not even a radical socialist as so many have made him out to be. Prof Steiner quoted him as saying: "The Future does not belong to Socialism, but to Christianity." Count Tolstoy has always frowned upon any thought of revolution by means of force in Russia. Prof. Steiner spoke of the social condition of the Russian people and in this connection he said of the controversy between Japan and Russia: "Russia cannot afford to go to war. The people are overburdeued with taxation now." He told how the sending of the Russian troops into China had increased the tax burden upon the people of Russia. All necessities of life are now taxed to the limit and should war come, people will starve. Then social revolution will not be unlikely. In speaking of the personal appearance of the great reformer, Prof. Steiner said: "He has no racial characteristics; he is big, powerful and each feature seems to have been made without a thought of the others; his nose is too large, his eyes too small. He seems to have been made in a hurry. His is the face of original humanity immediately from God." INTERCOLLEGIATE NEWS. Prof. Steiner spoke of the intimate acquaintance which Tolstoy showed with American affairs. He knows all about the leaders of every religious sect and political party. He is a great reader of American books. Henry George's "Progress and Poverty" he considers the greatest American book. Of Tolstoy's own works, Prof. Steiner considers that "The Little Peasant Tales" have had the greatest effect in bringing the Slav up to a higher plane of existence. The new catalogue of Princeton University, which has just been published, shows a total registration of 1,431 students for the year 1903.04 as compared with 1,383 last year. This is a gain of 48. As is the case at Yale there is a marked increase in the number of Scientific students. The enrollment of the Green School of Science exceeds by 91 the enrollment of last year. In the Academic Department there is a decrease of 33-721 students this year against 754 last year—most of which is in the junior and sophomore classes. There are 380 freshmen, 108 specials, and 114 graduate students. The number of faculty members and instructors is 109. Pennsylvania is shown to have more students at Princeton than any other state in the union—342. New Jersey sends 324 and shows a steady increase, while Pennsylvania has stood at the same number for four years or even dropped back a little. New York sends 266 men, Illinois 67, and Connecticut 23. Missouri, Wisconsin and Michigan show a falling off in numbers of men who are sent to Princeton, which may, perhaps, be the result of the strengthening and broadening of the home universities. Of foreigners there are 6 from the British Island, 1 from Turkey, 2 from Japan, 1 from China, and 4 from Canada. The Beta Theta Pi house at Syracuse is quarantined because one of the men living there has smallpox. The Syracuse Daily Orange, the student publication of Syracuse University, is now being printed in a shop owned and operated by students. Syracuse is the third university to have such a plant. Brown and Columbia have shops controlled by students. The printing plant is owned by a corporation known as the Orange Publishing Company, the directors and stockholders of which are all students. In the printing shop all but the foreman are students. New machinery and type to the value $1500 has been installed. As practical "schools of journalism" these three college dailies are not now excelled. Five resident students and three former students of the University of Chicago were lost in the Iroquois theatre fire. A Press Club has been formed at the University of Minnesota. Although there is no class of journalism at this institution, many of the students are interested in journalism and organized the club. The club intends to unite social pleasure with its literary work. KANSAS UNIVERSITY ORCHESTRA.

THE DAILY NEBRASKAN, not last Wednesday has an interesting editorial on Nebraska's football outlook for next year. Aside from pointing out that Nebraska is in a position to secure games next year with Iowa, Illinois and Minnesota, the editorial says that Nebraska has proven her ability to play up to the "Big Nine" standard. The editorial says: "Success in college football is not confined to winning alone, but to creating and maintaining friendly relations with other institutions and encouraging sportsmanlike conduct both on the part of ourselves and by our example on the part of our opponents. That is the true secret of college athletics and we believe that much has been done here this year towards promoting the means to such a desirable end. In meeting such strong teams as may be scheduled for next year, we have two opportunities, both of which are apparent. We will have an opportunity to excel all past records and to strengthen our ties with other institutions. Both of these aims are of equal importance, and a double victory will be ours if both are realized." Such ideas coming from Nebraska does our hearts good, especially since Kansas did her share in teaching Nebraska the importance and truth of such ideas. It is sad, though, to think that Nebraska is making up at such a late date. Although Kansas does not consider herself as a possible rival of the "Big Nine" teams, she would enjoy a few more games with Nebraska. Keep up the good work Nebraska, we heartily approve of your new ideas. We are indeed glad that you will have an opportunity to excel all your past records, and we rejoice with you in the thought that you believe in strengthening your ties with other institutions. MOST OF THE students are dreading the final quizzes which come next week. The Medics, however, are the only class which has really stiff quizzes. BOSTON UNIVERSITY is fully convinced that coeducation is not conducive to matrimony. If it would read the alumni department of the Graduate Magazine of Kansas University, it might even yet change its mind. IN VIEW OF the fact that many well educated persons are unaware that they do not speak correctly, it might be expedient for the University to offer a course in Correct English. Having had the advantages offered by our English department, many students might think that a course of this kind was not for them, forgetting that after one's collegiate days are over the association that engendered a high standard of expression has been severed, and that unless one "keeps up" that standard, we will surely retrograde. Many questions arise in regard to grammatical construction, which are not included in any one course. Even the college graduate may discover that, after all, there are innumerable questions which never occurred to him during his collegiate work, for no one course on this subject treats of them all. Such a course was suggested to several seniors. "It might be all right for the new beginners," said one, "but when one is a senior they don't need it." "I do not need it at all," said another, "as I always speak correct." Miss B,—"Did you enjoy your self at the concert last night." Miss S.—"Really, I enjoyed myself so much that I quite forgot about myself." NEWSPAPER IN a western Kansas town reported the home coming of a young lady student at vacation time by saying that she "came home to visit her parents and her man friends." Of course it was a typographical error. TWO YALE GRADUATES recently held a reunion in a cell at police headquarters in Chicago. College students are always seeking for something new and unique. Shakespeare borrowed Romeo and Juliet, from a novel entitled, Rhomoeo and Julietta, by Boistea, French, whose author borrowed it from an Italian story by Bandelio (1554), all of which goes to show that "unconscious assimilation" was not unknown even in those days. Richardson, the novelist is called the Shakespeare of Prose Fiction by D'Israeli. Have you ever read one of his works? "Then you must admire Sir Walter Scott?" exclaimed the student in the 19th con prose class, with sudden animation. "Is not his Lady of the Lake extensive in its flowing pace and pathetic imagery! Is it not—" "It is perfectly lovely," his lady friend accented elasping her hands in ecstacy. "I suppose I have read it a dozen times." "And Scott's Marmion," he continued, "with its rugged simplicity and marvellous descriptions. One can almost smell the heaters on the hearth while pursuing its splendid pages." "And Scott's Emulsion," he continued lastly, for a faint suspicion was beginning to dawn upon him. "It's perfectly grand," she "I think," she interrupted rashly, "that it's the best thing he ever wrote." A FAMOUS PROFESSOR, whose hobby was the derivation of words, had occasion to store his furniture while proceeding to the continent in quest of the origin of the term "juggins." During his researches in Berlin, he received from the warehouse company the following letter: Sir;-We have the honor to inform you that the mattrass you sent to our store had moth in it, since the epidemic would expose the goods of other clients to injury, we have caused your mattrass to be destroyed." The professor replied: "Dear Sir;-My (mattrass) may, as you say, have had a moth in it, but I am confident that it had an "e" in it also. WHEN ROBERT BROWNING was asked to explain one of his passages, he responded: "When I wrote that poem there were only two persons who understood its meaning, myself and the Almighty; and now there is but one, for I have forgotten it." "WOULD YOU SAY 'honest politics is, or are?' "Is, of course, honest politics is always singular. BULLETIN. SATURDAY, JAN. 16. Paul Gilmore in John Drew's play The Mummy and the Humming Bird."

REPORT OF THE QUILL CLUB. Mr. Holliday read a very unique story entitled, "A Conspiracy." The characters in it were consistent throughout, the plot was skillfully handled, the descriptions exceptionally clever and the impossible was made to seem quite possible and natural. Professor Bryant gave a brief and very interesting history of the eddas and read a translation of an Icelandic poem. It is always a pleasure to the members of the club when any member of the English department can be present and take part in the work of the club. The students elected to membership are Misses Coffman, Beckwith, Ardery, Burwell, Jones, Gatlin, Hayward, Leidigh, Olcott, Searles, Sirpless, Duke, Abeland Crawford, Messrs. Hill, Keyser and Kilby. REPORT OF X. Y. Z. DEBATING CLUB, An interesting meeting of the X.Y.Z debating club was held in the club room last Saturday evening. There was a large attendance and the program was unusually good. The meeting was opened by a parliamentary drill, led by Tritt, with Kayser as parliamentary expert and mediator. Finch, a new member, made an extempore address, after which Leinbach spoke on Machine politics. A brief talk was made by Bartlett on The new Faculty Ruling in Regard to Applications for Courses. The debate of the evening was on the question; Resolved, that employers are justified in refusing to recognize labor unions. After an animated discussion of the subject, Livers and Ashbaugh of the negative were given the decision over Kayser and Petit. Leinbach acted as critic for the evening. A meeting of the directors of the club was held last Tuesday evening to talk over the financial affairs of the club. At this meeting the board of directors was formally organized, with Frank Grant as chairman and C.A. Leinbach as clerk. $8.00 Best artificial teeth.

HASKELL 28-K. U.12. Haskell Wins the First Game of the Season. The Haskell basket ball team outplayed the K. U. team Thursday night in the university gymnasium, winning by a score of 28 to 12. The red men had good team work and were too quick for the K. U. men, altho Kansas at times played brilliantly and together. The game was rough and several times evidences of temper were apparent which could have been well done away with. This fault on the part of the K.U. team has kept many people away from the gymnasium and should be kept out of the game The basket ball games are attracting much more attention here now than ever before; are well attended and with a good team should pay expenses and be able to take just as long trips as a base ball or foot ball team. to meet the best teams in the west. The men that play should remember that their conduct reflects credit or discredit on the University and should play as clean a game as they would in foot ball or base ball. Topeka Y. M. C. A. 18—Kansas 16. In a rather poorly played game last night the K. U. basketball ball team was defeated by a score of 18 to 16. The men did better than in the Haskell game and seemed to get together in better shape. Numerous fouls were made on both sides. Naturally our men were not acquainted with the court, yet it seems to be the general consensus of opinion that the Kansans' defeat was due to lack of practice. The Basket Ball Schedule. The basket ball schedule for the spring trip has been definitely arranged. Manager Plank announces the following games: William Jewell, January 29. Omaha Y.M.C.A., January 30. Des Moines V. M. C. A, February 4. Sioux City, February 2. Morningside College, February 3. Highland Park College, February 5. Grinnell Univ., February 6. Univ. of Iowa, February 7. Base Ball Team to Go to World's Fair. Base ball team to go to world's fun. One of the attractive features of the annual base ball trip will be a series of games with Washington University. Preparations are under way to secure a number of games with them for the last week in May. MANAGER PLANK GOES EAST. No man takes a vacation who takes his work with him. Athletic Manager Will Visit Chicago and Northwestern. At a recent meeting of the Athletic Board, it was decided to have Manager Plank visit some of the important schools of Illinois and Indiana. The trip will simply be in the general interests of athletics. Unlike Nebraska, we will not try to "butt into" a league out of our own class, but intend to try to obtain some games with the eastern colleges. While he is gone Mr. Plank will visit Chicago University, Northwestern at Evanston, Champagne, Purdue and Notre Dame. He will probably stop at St. Louis on his way back. Washington University is anxious to arrange dates with us. Yesterday the Kansas management received a telegram asking that we reserve an opening for a football game with them next fall. Manager Plank immediately wired but as yet has received no answer. This fact may cause him to include the World's Fair City in his Eastern tour. Coach for Base Ball Team. The base ball team will probably be provided with a coach this season. Negotiations have been under way with Dale Gear and others for some time. A base ball coach is as much of a necessity now in college base ball teams of the East as a foot ball coach and they give to a team a uniformity of playing and team work which all the practice will not give. K. U. has as good individual players as any team in the country, but has lost several games in the last few years because they didn't play together and didn't know what to do in critical plays which a coach would have obviated to some extent. 一O一 Do it now: have Squires make your photos. 925 Mass. St. Antonio S. Buzzi, general representative of the Universal View Co. has been visiting Lawrence the past week. "Booz," as he is familiarly known to the old toot ball men, reports everything as very favorable for next summer's work. All students desiring scholarships have been requested to make out their application blanks at once. Last year there were several students disappointed because their applications were not made out soon enough. The university offers nine scholarships. Each carries with it $200, and the pay granted for such teaching as may be required of them during the year. They are granted for especially good work in one branch, but general scholarship is also taken into consideration. INTERCOLLEGIATE NEWS The military department of the University of Minnesota has received a communication from Gen. Allen, head of the constabulary in the Philippine Islands, asking that recommendations of university cadets be sent him for positions in the constabulary. The constabulary is the military police force of the Philippines, and cadets recommended from Minnesota will receive the rank of second lieutenant. A new department, that of domestic science, will be inaugurated at the University of Wisconsin at the opening of the next semester. This department has been founded in response to a strong public demand. At the last session of the Wisconsin legislature, money was appropriated for the establishment and maintenance of this new department, under provisions for either a professional school or elective course in domestic science. The latter plan was adopted. One course, the selection and preparation of foods, by lectures, conferences, and laboratories, being offered this spring. Three courses, house sanitation, house decoration and management, and food problems will be given next year. President Hadley of Yale University in a recent address upon "Opportunities for Political Influence" before Harvard students said: "Politics is a game and must be played out by definite rules. No man should be an extremist, either independent or partisan. He should strike a happy medium, but should not enter the political field at all unless rich, for if he does he will have to yield sooner or later to the wrong influence, or else get out and starve." Caswell Hall, the new dormitory recently erected at Brown University, is said to be one of the most commodiously furnished structures of its kind in the United States. It is furnished throughout in the best of darkstained oak. NO.15. President Edgar M. Smith of the Illinois Wesleyan University announced at chapel meeting recently that the faculty had prohibited dancing, card playing and theater-going. Time and money is required which the student cannot afford, he declared. The faculty does not oppose ordinary social gatherings. President Smith warned the students against violation of the orders, as charters of secret societies might be revoked. He closed with a reference to the death of a prominent Methodist in the Iroquois Theatre fire, which, he believed, pointed a tragic moral.

MANY STUDENTS who have been pursuing studies during the past term will soon find that they haven't caught up with them. "There, there, little girl—don't cry." * ** I guess that stung, too. THE ESTABLISHMENT of industrial departments in our educational institutions would exert a powerful influence towards readjusting social conditions. Young women students would not only contribute to the public good, but also advice concerning the practical side of the household—advice as to methods of cooking, of sewing, and of general housekeeping. Certainly, all persons appreciate good cooking. This failure on the part of educated young women to take a scientific course in cooking, has led many a man to prefer an Irish to a "Greek" cook. An industrial department would work great good in helping to solve the question "For what profession am I best fitted?" Many students who are not now an the University, could be induced to attend. This is illustrated by the case of a young man who came here last fall to take the course in journalism. The practical side of the work appealed to him. He is now well satisfied in pursuing regular University courses. While it is true he is taking work that will lead to the journalistic course, yet the work he is doing has been offered by the University for years. Like this young man, many persons by being attracted by the inducements offered by such a department, would in this way catch a glimpse of a higher life which could result only in great good. Again, students who are now pursuing only intellectual work would come in contact with manual labor. Those who are convinced that they have made a mistake in choosing purely intellectual courses, would then be given an opportunity to develop and follow their own natural inclinations. Physical exercise could then be taken while By having an industrial department all students of the University would be benefitted. Not only the students who desire such a course without any other, but those who wish to pursue an industrial as well as a professional education, would find such a department most helpful and valuable. A Dresden paper, the Weidmann, states that among the Hottentots (Hollentoten) the kangarooos (Beutelratte) are found in great numbers. Many of them wander over the country, free and unmolested; others less fortunate are taken by the hunters and put into cages (Kotter), provided with covers (Lattengitter) to keep out the rain. These cages are called in German* Lattengitter — wetterkotter, and the kangaroo, after his imprisonment takes the name of Lottengitterwetterkotterbeutelratte. One day an assassin (Attentater) was arrested who had killed a Hottentot woman, Hottentottenmutter, the mother of two stupid and stuttering boys in Strottertrottel. This women, in the German language, is entitled Hottentotenstrottertrottelmutter, and her assassin takes the name Hottentotenstrottermutterattentater. The murderer was confined in a kangaroo eage, Beutelrattenlattengitterwetterkotter, whence a few days later he escaped; but fortunately he was regaptured by a Hottentot who presented himself at the mayor's office with beaming face. "I have captured the Beutel-ratte," said he. "Which one?" replied the mayor, "we have several." "The Attentaterlattengitter- wetterkotterbitrate." "Which Attentater are you talking about?" "About the Hottententosterroteltrottelmutterattentater." "Then why don't you say at once the Hottentotenstrottel-mutterattentaatlatterengitterwetterkotterbeutelratte." The Hottentot fled in dismay. A Revery of Ike Marvel Bachelor SMOKE—Signifying Doubt. A wife?—thought I;— yes, a wife! and why? And pray, my dear sir, why not—why? Why not doubt; why not hesitate; why not tremble? Does a man buy a ticket in a lottery—a poor man whose whole earnings go in to secure the ticket—without trembling, hesitating and doubting? Can a man stake his bachelor respectability, his independence and comfort, upon the die of absorbing, unchanging, relentless marriage, without trembling at the venture? I pushed my chair back, drew up another; stretched out my feet costly upon it, rested my elbows on the chair arms, leaned my head on one hand, and looked straight into the leaping dancing flame. BLAZE—Signifying Cheer. O- Love is a flame, ruminated I; and (glancing round the room) how a flame brightens up a "Carlo," said I, calling up my dog into the light, "good fellow, Carlo!" and I patted him kindly; and he wagged his tail, and laid his nose across my knee, and looked wistfully up in my face; then strode away, turned to look again, and lay down to sleep. man's habitation. "Pho, the brute!" said I; "it is not enough, after all, to like a dog." If now in that chair yonder, not the one your feet lie upon, but the other, beside you—closer yet—were seated a sweet faced girl, with a pretty little foot lying out upon the hearth, a bit of lace running round the swelling throat, the hair parted to a charm over the forehead toir as any of your dreams, and if you could reach an arm round that chair-back, without fear of giving offence and suffer your fingers to play idly with those curls that escape down the neck, and if you could clasp, with your other hand, those little white taper fingers of hers which lie so temptingly within reach, and so, talk softly and low in presence of the blaze, while the hours slip without knowledge, and the winter winds whistle uncared tor, —it, in short, you were no baecher, but the husband of some such sweet image (dream, call it, rather)—would it not be far pleasanter than this cold, single, night sitting, counting the sticks, reckoning the length of the blaze, and the height of the falling snow? And if, some or all of those wild vagaries that grow on your fancy at such an hour, you could whisper into listening, because loving, ears—ears not tired with listening, because it is you who whisper—ears ever indulgent because eager to praise,—and if your darkest fancies were lit up—not merely with bright wood-fire, but with a ringing laugh of that sweet face turned up in fond rebuke,—how far better, than to be noding black and sour over pestilential humors, alone,—your very dog asleep.

The mind has a thousand eyes. And the heart but one, When love is done. —Bourdillon Yet the light of the whole world dies REPORT OF THE QUILL CLUB. Miss Greene read "A Sophomore's Description of a Student's Room" which went into the heart of things in almost too thorough a manner; while the author's interest in many things was shown clearly, there was no college spirit even hinted at and the room seemed to be that of the ideal student. The paper was thoughtful and sincere, the thought being better than the expression, as is likely to be the case when an author discards literary canons and puts so much of his personality into his writing. Mr Edson read several poems illustrating both rejected and dejected manuscripts. "Guessing Hogs" was the most interesting of the former. Mr. Edson did not succeed, in this poem, in removing the unpleasant sense of incongruity which often lingers in the reader's mind when the sublime and the ridiculous are combined in a short poem, but there were happy descriptive touches throughout. No one could be surprised at hearing that the beautiful "Easter Poem" had been accepted. It was much the best poem read, was full of warm color and illustrated Mr. Edson's literary ability at its best. Mr. Keyes read a short paper entitled "Editorials and Editorial Paragraphs". It touched upon the power of the press and gave a review of the comic side of editorials. Citations were skillfully introduced but the original touches were even better than those quoted. The meeting was adjourned for two weeks. REPORT OF X. Y. Z. DEBATING CLUB. On Friday evening, January 15 the X. Y. Z. club room was transferred into a training quarter for embryonic inter-state debates. A program was given consisting of (3) debates on questions that will be used in the Kansas-Missouri, Kansas - Nebraska, and Kansas - Colorada debates. As far as possible, the discussions were participated in by the X. Y. Z. men who are trying for places in the inter-state debates but several other members of the clubs, as well as some members of Snow literary society, took part. P. C.

This famous novel so familiarly known from the from the Atlantic to the Pacific and in England, as "the best New England story ever written," was brought out two years ago, and while its immediate success and wide sale all over this country was sufficient to have warranted placing on the stage two seasons ago, the management has wisely waited. In the meantime the book has been selling steadily and has a record now of over 200,000 copies in this country, to say nothing of the large sale in England. The play, with a strong cast, and elaborately produced, will be seen at Bowersock Opera House Jan. 25, 1904. In fact it will be the successful New York production seen at the Academy of Music during its run there. The Student's Photographers. TREVOR ELLIS Mr. C. F. Squires. Mrs. C. F. Squires. 925 MASS.

SMITH ON TAXATION. Senator from the Big Seventh Speaks to University Students. Senator F. Dumont Smith or Kinsley, author of the tax bill before the last Kansas legislature, addressed the students of the University in chapel Friday morning upon the subject of taxation. The chapel was crowded and the closest attention was given the Senator during his entire talk. Senator Smith treated the subject from its historical and sociological standpoints. BASE BALL CANDIDATES. But few men have signed up for the various places upon the base ball team. With the prospects of the splendid trip which is in view, there ought to be fifty men working out now. As yet the only men who have signed are as follows; Catcher - Coulson, Johnson, Ise. Kinne. Pitcher—C. Morgan, Jay Mack Love, Lapham. First base—Henry, Briley and Brownlee. Second base—Wilkinson, Eby. Third base—Pyle, D. Morgan Klaumann. Short stop—Chase, Woodford Outfield—D. Morgan, Sexton Henry, C. Morgan, Woodford Burgess, Mains. IN SOCIETY The "Society belles" of the University have seized at Leap Year as a fine excuse for paying back their indebtedness to the other sex for the tireless attention they have been paying for the past eight years, and just at the first the girls seemed really in danger of running the matter in the ground, so anxious are they to get even. It won't last long, however, for they are already beginning to realize that it may in time get to be just a trifle hard on their pocket books. Perhaps hereafter they will think of the man's side of that to a little more effect than before they had experience of their own in that line. But it is certainly a great deal of sport for both the real and the make-believe girls, and the change is very welcome, however much courage it may take for a "wee little bit of a woman" to lead a burly six-footer through the misty mazes of the waltz. The Senior girls were the first to start the march by an affair at the L.O. O.F. hall last Saturday night, and everybody was perfectly satisfied with the evening, except, perhaps the poor unpopular men who had to st out dances disconsolately in the dressing room, wondering if girls felt bad when they were decorating the wall. The other classes are following in the lead of their dignified sisters. Arrangements for the Nebraska Debate The Debating Council have found considerable difficulty in satisfying Nebraska in regard to the question for the annual debate between the two schools. The first question submitted was rejected. In regard to the second question sent, "Resolved, that the best interests of the United States no longer require an appeal to the Monroe Doctrine as a national principle," Nebraska wrote asking what we meant by the Monroe Doctrine and also if we understood the words "an appeal to" as meaning "the maintenance of." Kansas telegraphed a reply stating that they understood by the Monroe Doctrine the principles as laid down by Monroe in his famous message. Nebraska's reply intimated that Monroe's ideas were a little mixed and that the only way in which the debaters could come to a final clinch would be by discussing an abbreviated part of the original Doctrine. Yesterday Kansas submitted four questions for Nebraska to speculate upon in the hope that the latter could find one which would satisfy her. Masks - . - - - at Hoadley's.

PHARMACY ALUMNI NOTES Change your drinks for a while for your stomach's sake and try Raymond's "Pink Tea." The fresh sassafras is clean, bright and strong. Last week the Corresponding Secretary suffered under a combined attack of la grippe and tonsilitis, being confined to his bed for several days. During the period of his illness he attempted to dictate a few notes for the Weekly. As a result, there are some corrections to be made. "A. Hayes '01" should read "A. Hargis '01;" "O. S. Dickey" should be "E. S. Dickey '02." "Our alumni are being reorganized by the local Retail Drug Association" was intended to read, "In the organization of the Local Retail Druggists' Associations, our alumni are getting their share of the offices." H. I. Fox '94 of Atchison left the drug business sometime ago and is now interested in a saddlery firm. T. J. McCampbell '01, who has conducted the Crystal Pharmacy at Topeka for the past two years, opened up a drug store the early part of the winter on Vine St. K. C., Mo. H. A. White '91, leading drug-gist of Eudora, Kans., was in the city on business last Thursday night. M. R. Mason '96 has again returned to San Francisco after having spent the summer in Alaska. Mr. Mason is still in the U. S. Marine Hospital Service. A. T. Noble '02 paid a visit to Lawrence and K. U. friends this week. Evidently the wheels did not move fast enough for Art in pharmacy, so he is at work with something that will go faster an Automobile Co. in Wichita. Once more we have ascertained through one of the members of the Association as to where Fred Diestelhorst '02 has secreted himself. He is now practicing his art in Fresno, California, is doing well and thinks it a fine place. Rid yourself of Corns, Raymond's Corn Cure is just as sure as a hatchet and is free from pain. There is some talk of an indoor or meet between Kansas and Missouri to be held in Convention hall, Kansas City, some time the latter part of March or the first of April. All the customary field events could be held except the hammer throw and discus. In the eastern part of the United States these indoor meets are among the best attended features of the athletic year and coming as they do when no other athletic events are in season, would no doubt arouse much enthusiasm. The management of the hall seem to be confident that it would be a drawing card and are very anxious to have it take place. An indoor meet has some advantages over the outdoor meets in that the spectators have a much better view, events can be pulled off in better time and announcements of times, distances, etc., made to better advantage.

LAFAYETTE YOUNG Des Moines Editor Gives a Plain Talk on Newspaper Work. Colonel Lafayette Young, publisher of the Des Moines Daily Capital, addressed the class in Journalism at the University of Kansas Friday morning. Mr Young is an old friend of Prof. E.F.Jones of the University who was instrumental in arranging his stop at Lawrence Mr. Young did not address the class upon a set subject, but as he put it gave a "shop talk." He said in part: "Possibly we should not indicate to you young journalists of the future that there are any troubles ahead in the career of a journalist. A good many newspaper men who have graduated from the school of hard knocks are disposed to make faces at a school of journalism. I am not of that vogue. I so thoroughly believe in education in all lines that I scoff at it in no sense. One who has had to plod all his life can only be envious of those who have the opportunity to learn. I always feel sorry for the young man who has a father who finds it necessary to bribe or otherwise induce him to enter college. The only remedy for such a young man is a bed slat or a barrel stave wielded by a person of sufficient strength. The world belongs to those who have the energy and the nerve to do something. The trouble is so many young journalists want to jump from the bottom to the top without enduring all the trials and vicissitudes and burning of the midnight oil that goes between. Your college education ought to make your ability to work that much superior to the one who has not had it. "If you have any one in Kansas who will tell you that oil and grease and smut on your arms and face are a disgrace something is wrong with your system of education. Too many college men who enter the newspaper business think they should be managing editor after ninety days' service without going through all the hard knocks that go between. The disposition to avoid labor is too common a thing among young journalists. There never has been a greater demand for young men and women who will make good reporters. Good salaries await young men and women who can make a clear report of an address or public meeting in half a column, giving all the salient points without giving the unnecessary parts. The public wants the truth. Put it down just as it is. The busy man has not the time to read breezy reports. Learn to know the meaning of words; know enough about public questions of the day, political, religious, social and otherwise, to comprehend what you take back in your notes. Give the news." "The mistake that the modern reporter makes is that he is anxious to get on the first page in big headlines and in order to do this he misrepresents the facts Wm. Jewell College canceled the basket ball game to be played there tonight. They allege that their players are sick and not fit for the game. This action on the part of Wm. Jewell has disarranged the plans of our athletic board. As a consequence the trip comprising a week's series of games through Iowa, Missouri and Nebraska has been indefinitely postponed. BASKET BALL TRIP OEF. NEBRASKA DEBATE. Nebraska has finally agreed to a question for debate. Our Council submitted, Resolved: That the interests of the United States no longer demand an appeal to the Monroe Doctrine as a national principle. There were two provisos that this doctrine should not be construed as meaning forcible seizure of South American territory for European debts nor intervention in European fairs, by the United States. Nebraska has accepted af the negative. Kappa Chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta entertained its friends at an annual spring party at Pythian hall, Friday evening, January 29. The party was one of the most effective of the year. An oriental scheme of decoration was carried out in detail. The shaded light which came from long string of Japanese lanterns carried from the four corners of the hall to the central chandelier, cast a becoming gloom over the dancers. The balcony looked especially well, done as it was in red, and gave the effect of a Japanese tea garden. THE THETA SPRING PARTY. The out of town guests, who were unusually numerous, were as follows: Misses Fassler, Smith, Harrison, Everingham of Topeka; Birdsey, Mills, Cockrell of Pittsourg; Williams, Carkener, Freeman, Field, Sibson, Criley of Kansas City; Critchfield of Oskaloosa; Brown of Independence; Messrs. Lindburg, Hoffman of Pittsburg; Dyer, Byrne, Hoffman, Nelson, Leming of Kansas City; Arthur Wolf, Henry Wolf, Hammalt, King of Topeka; Brown of Independence; Mrs. and Miss Jackman of Minneapolis. Many letters have been received by the Registrar from various points throughout the state from prospective students. Many students are here already to take up the work next term. Mr. Foster says there will be a good steady increase in the attendance during the spring. ORGANIZATION OF CADET CORPS. There is quite a movement among the most enthusiastic members of the National Guard attending the University to start a cadet corps on the hill. There is a provision in the state law permitting such an organization and the boys are heartily in favor of pushing it along. Papers are being circulated to get as many as possible to join voluntarily and a movement is also under foot to substitute it for the freshman physical training work. WASHBURN 26; HASKELL Y.W.C.A.16 The girls' team of the Haskell Y. W. C. A. played the girls of Washburn College last night. The girls from Lawrence were the faster, but lacked the team work. The score was 26 to 16 in favor of Washburn. The following was the lineup: WARHBURN HASKELL Burdge forward Sooter Huddleston forward Waukon Thayer center Antilla Detwiler guard Roberts Sweet guard Waybouron NEWT ITEMS.

He reports the usual number of sore eyes and failing health as usual along about the 1st of February. Prof. Dyche delivered his illustrated lecture last night at the Becket school house. Arrangements are being made for a tournament of wrestling matches by representatives of the various classes. Chancellor Strong made an address at Newton last night before the State Y. M. C. A. Convention. The final preliminaries in debate will be held Monday night. The gymnasium floor has been put in shape for the track team men. Two afternoons a week are reserved for them. There have been twenty-five men working for the indoor meet during the past week. Indoor base ball practice begins Monday. Arrangements have been made for indoor work until the first of March. The men will have three afternoons a week reserved for them. A large number have signed up and new men are coming in from the high schools. A foot ball game has been arranged with Nebraska on November 12. It will be played in Kansas City.-Haskell Leader. The basket ball team went to Liberty, Missouri, Monday to play with William Jewell college Haskell won the game by a score of 21 to 18. On Tuesday evening they lost to the Kansas City Athletics. The score was 30 to 23.—Leader. A subscriber has kindly handed in the following: All the much discussed problems seem to be nearing solution. Last week a certain Biggs was taken for an anarchist, arrested and fined, all for the offense of shouting Latin phrases on Union Avenue, K.C. Consequently we expect soon to hear the loud assertions of the knockers on the study of dead languages; that they have ultimate and conclusive proof that Latin and Greek should be cut out of the college curriculum. Prof. Nathaniel Butler of the University of Chicago has been engaged for the Summer Session of 1904. He was president of Colby college from 1895 to 1901 and since that time has been professor of Education at the University of Chicago. Prof. Butler is the author of "Bellum Helveticum," a Latin text book, and the article on "University Extension" in the Universal Encyclopedia. He is an authority on university extension and will deliver lectures on this subject during the session. --- SHOES Men and Boys. The New Styles are in. Lasts you cannot find Elsewhere.

WITH THIS ISSUE of the WEEKLY, one half of those on the editorial board will wrap the drapery of their couches about them and lie down to pleasant dreams. Although many of the retiring members will not be likely to feel the change—having been dreaming pleasantly all through their administration—there are a few for whom the change will mean a great deal. The work and sacrifices connected with publishing the WEEKLY are not generally understood, and only those who have been associated with the paper can appreciate what a change of administration really means. But the few who have been doing the work and making the sacrifices would do it all over again if necessary, for they take pride in their university and would like to be proud of its publication. We wish the new board a most successful administration, and the present editor for one, offers his hearty co-operation in all matters pertaining to the betterment of the KANSAS UNIVERSITY WEEKLY. We take great pleasure in introducing Ralph Ellis, editor-in-chief; Geo. O. Foster, secretary and treasurer; and the following members of the board: Mabel Barber, Fred A, Gillette, Charles L. Van Fleet, Earl Campbell, Bert Beach, M. N. McNaugaton, J. W. Kayser and O. A. zummerman. Ottawa and Manhattan have refused to recognize Dr. Hetherington, athletic manager and director of Missouri university, as arbitrator of athletic difficulties, giving as one of their reasons that he is too partial to the University of Kansas. The university authorities have always considered Dr. Hetherington as perfectly just in his decisians and in deciding against the University he has always used the very best of judgment.

Because of the fact that many high school and "prep" school men wear athletic emblems on the campus, the Stanford athletic committee has passed a rule that only college men who have won emblems may wear them on the campus. The Stanford men say that their own emblem has become cheapened as a result of so many similar "prep" school emblems being worn and the upper classmen especially are active in taking steps against the practice Four spend in prayer, the rest The chief feature of the Cornell exhibit at the St. Louis Exposition will be a plaster model, eight by six feet, of the campus. This will show the streets, buildings, gorges and waterfalls, all in color. To represent the groves 2,000 miniature trees have been ordered from Germany. The work is under the supervision of Professor H.N. Ogden. INTER-COLLEGIATE NEWS. The new Greek Theatre at the University of Californiana is destined to have a wider field of usefulness than even its original promoters guessed. The sphere which it w hold in the future will be more of an approach to the National theatre than anything else that has ever been broached in America. On the classic stage at Berkeley will be presented from time to time the best dramatic and musical productions the world has to offer and these performances will be presented by means of an endowment towards which the University is already working. Many important changes have been announced for the coming year at the University of Wisconsin. The board of regents in a recent meeting established six additional graduate fellowship of $200 each and approved plans for the new $100,000 chemical laboratory; they also decided to take a prominent part in the semi-centennial jubilee. But probably the most important change, to the undergraduates at least, was the shortening of the college year from June 23 to June 9. Yale society men are protesting that at the annual promss the dances are run off at too great speed. They say that no opportunity is given for a dancer, breathless and perspiring after the dances, to find his next partner, and that only the long-distance runners of the University can stand the pace. Credit is given for attending chapel at the University of Indiana. A course of chapel lectures has been arranged and students receive one half hour's credit per term for regular attendance up on the Tuesday and Thursday lectures. Missouri State University intends to found a chair of Poultry soon. Experiments in spring chicken cultivation last spring were so successful that the step was decided upon. Educational exhibits will be a prominent feature of the St. Louis Exposition, and among them exhibits by universities will occupy a very important place. Because of the great public interest manifested in university affairs by the public generally, a building has been erected solely for educational displays. The buildn is one of the most striking in architecture and position of any on the exposition grounds. It occupies seven acres of space. The largest dimension is across the northern facade 758 feet, the southern facade measures 450 feet, the sides 252 feet. So great has been the demand for space in the building that a large open court has been roofted over. The various universities are rapidly making up their exhibits, and these will be unique both for elaborate designs and comprehensive materials. Fred J. Boyles, 639 Mass.

INTERCOLLEGIATE NEWS A Pan-Helenic Whist Tournament is the latest amusement devised at the University of Iowa. The fraternities think that a whist tourney would create as much heat and blood as the base ball interfraternity league. The men of Iowa are said to be expert in manipulating trumps and aces, and a lively time is assured to the contestants. The tourney will be held at the beginning of the Winter Quarter. An interfraternity bowling league is also proposed. The upper-class women at the University of California have voted to wear corduroy skirts as the official class skirt. They will endeavor to make this custom a tradition. It has become a tradition among upper-classmen to wear corduroy suits. The students of Berkeley and Stanford now might be said to be dressed by tradition. There is a class cap, a class suit, a class tie, and at one time class shoes were introduced. The University of California is soon to issue a new song book. In issuing this book a radical departure will be made from the usual college book, as nearly all the songs are to be entirely new and distinctively Californian Professors and alumni have written most of the songs, the book being edited by a professor and an alumnus. The University of Indiana will not be represented by graduate or undergraduate in the competition for the Rhodes scholarships. An official of the university states that the reason for this is because the required examinations are too strenuous for the Hoosier candidates. Professor Martha Foote Crow of Northwestern has taken a stand in her English classes against the fad among the girls of covering the walls of their rooms with gaudy posters. She says that the university courses of today pay too much attention to practical matters and too little to aesthetic and artistic studies. NEWS ITEMS.

The native people are generally robust and buy but little medicine. The Americans and invalids who go that country to recuperate are their best patrons. THE LEAP YEAR RAGE The following from an exchange is but another example of the strenuosity of modern society life: "The young women of the Philokurian Literary society of Butler college have determined to take advantage of leap year, and have announced to the male students that they will furnish the escorts to all regular meetings and social functions during the year. "The matter was brought up through a motion, which the president of the society refused to entertain. The meeting adjourned in disorder, but the women members met in secret afterwards, and after a long discussion approved the plan and notified the male students of their action. In order to enforce it they also have determined not to accept a man as an escort if he makes the overtures." The men of Kansas University have taken the rather numerous leap year parties here as a joke. But if the rage continues, if the madness extends from the historic halls of Williams and Harvard to the western universities of California and Stanford, from Michigan to Texas, the chances are that the funny men in the funny columns of the funny papers will again perpetrate those atrocities upon innocent society known as the effeminate man and masculine-female jokes. 828Mass.
