MANAGER PLANK RETURNS.
KANSAS VS. PURDUE.
BASE BALL TRIP.
Manager Plank's happy smile was seen once more at chapet exercises Thursday. He was highly enthusiastic over his eastern trip. As the representative of Kansas he was well received by the eastern universities. They were all favorably inclined towards K. U., but owing to previous contracts could not make as many engagements with us as had been hoped for. Chicago and Northwestern had their schedules filled out. Illinois had promised to play Nebraska if she came west. Purdue however, wanted to play provided we would give them a two-year contract. They will come here this year—October 29.
After circulating among the colleges of the Big Nine, Mr. Plank stopped at Washington. That University wants all the Kansas teams there this year. A definite date has been approved by the Athletic Board for the football schedule. Kansas will play on the St. Louis gronuds Nov. 12, 1904.
They are anxious to have a series of base ball games with us in the latter part of May, but the Athletic Board has not decided upon its schedule as yet. The list of prospective games will be submitted to the Board Monday or Tuesday. Besides the St. Louis games, the other outside games proposed by Manager Plank will be at Highland Park, Iowa University, Arkansas University, Oklahoma University, Texas and Colorado.
The Athletic Board met Thursday to hear the report of Manager Plank, who has just returned from the east, where he has been trying to arrange a foot ball schedule for next fall.
The three large games to be played on McCook field next fall are Purdue, Haskell and Colorado. Manager Plank says the schedule next fall will be a hard one for Kansas.
The board also decided to enlarge McCook field by moving the north fence back on the limit, a distance of twenty feet and make two base ball diamonds, giving more room for practice.
The track team schedule has not been fully arranged. The team is getting into good condition, and some fine work is expected next spring.
The base ball players are working out in the Gymnasium daily.
The students of the University of California intend to make February 26 a student labor day. The entire day will be used for improving the campus. Every student will work from eight in the morning to six at night.
He Tells of Interesting Events in Early Kansas History.
JAMES HORTON'S LECTURE.
Thursday night Hon. James Horton, of Kansas City, lectured to an appreciative audience of students and town's people in University Hall on the subject: "Early Days of Kansas." Mr. Horton was a resident of Lawrence during the territorial days of Kansas history. He lived here at the time of Quantrell's raid and occuping as he did an important place in the early history of the state, perhaps no living man is more intimately acquainted with those stirring events of early days than Mr.Horton
Mr. Horton is a fascinating story teller and not only was his collection of stories of more than ordinary interest but they all had a lesson to be learned from them.
Mr. Horton described some of the events of Quantrell's raid with a vividness that held his auditors' closest attention. He portrayed some of the early characters of Lawrence with such skill that one could imagine the individual was before one's eyes.
Perhaps the most interesting part of Mr. Horton's talk, historically, was his description of the election of E.G. Ross, of Lawrence, to the United States Senate over Thos. Carney, of Leavenworth. He told how at the last minute the Ross supporters decided to put up a legislative candidate; how the Ross ticket delegates were elected by a majority of one and the final election of Ross to the senate by one vote.
Then Mr. Horton gave a graphic description of the impeachment of President Johnson. The vote stood 35 for impeachment and 19 against. A change of one vote was sufficient to impeach Mr. Johnson and the republican leaders of the impeachment movement expected Mr. Ross to remember his party affiliation to party principles and vote for impeachment, but he refused. Mr. Horton said, "The judgement of history has shown that the impeachment of President Johnson would have been unwise and the fact that Mr. Johnson was not impeached is due to the high moral courage of E. G. Ross, senator from Kansas.
The freshmen of Minnesota University have given their full consent to the sophomore party, which the class of '06 intend to give shortly. This action suits everyone excepting the upper class men who had expected to see a sophomore-freshman scrap on the night in question.
The Haskell Indian basket ball team has been more than usually successful in playing the games scheduled on its foreign trip.
PROF. BLACKMAR RETURNS.
Prof. Blackmar has returned to his university work after a four weeks' absence. Prof. Blackmar has been giving a series of lectures upon "Processes of Distribution" to the graduate students, fellows and instructors in the Department of Political Economy at the University of Wisconsin. In addition to his regular course of lectures, Prof. Blackmar gave two general lectures to the student body of the university.
Prof. Blackmar expressed himself as exceedingly well pleased with the courteous treatment which he received at Madison. Comparing Wisconsin University with Kansas, Prof. Blackmar says: "They are stronger than we are, being somewhat better equipped as to appliances, thus making the work, not perhaps easier, but more satisfactory to the instructors."
The Professor says further that the students at Wisconsin perform their work better in some ways than our students.
The Wisconsin legislature has been more liberal to her educational institutions than that of Kansas and the result is many beautiful and commodious buildings.
"The University of Wisconsin has the advantages of us," says Prof. Blackmar, "in that the institution is some fifteen years older than ours, but the time will come perhaps in a few years when Kansas University will be her equal."

A GIFT FOR K. U.
In 1894 Dr. Bell gave land worth from $50,000 to $75,000 for the building of a Kansas University hospital.
Dr. S. B. Bell of Rosedale, Kansas, has given $25,000 to the Kansas University for the endowment of free beds in a hospital that is expected to be built on a site in Rosedale, given for that purpose in 1894 by Dr. Bell. The present gift of $25,000 is given as a memorial to Dr. Bell's wife, Eleanor Taylor Bell, now deceased.
The next Kansas legislature will be asked to appropriate $50,000 or $100,000 for the remaining funds necessary for the erection and equipment of the hospital. Such a hospital would not only be a great institution in itself but would offer the best clinical advantages to University medical students.
SEMI-FINAL DEBATE RESULTS.
Last Monday night the final preliminary for choosing the debating squad took place in Frazer hall before Professors Burdick, Lawrence and Frazier.
The men who compose the sixteen and the divisions they are in are as follows:
Nebraska division—Bartlett.
Leinbach, Kayser, Johnson, McNaughton, Benson.

These men will continue to study their respective questions and will meet twice a week with Prof. Frazier for oral debate until about one week before the first inter-state debate, when a public contest will be held and the highest eight will make up the Kansas teams.
The class in Current Shorthand will meet Wednesday at 4.30 in room 26 A.,E.M.Hopkins.

THIS ISSUE of the WEEKLY marks the entrance of the new editorial staff into the field of college newspaper work. It is with a certain amount of misgiving that the first venture is made; but with the assistance and forbearance of student body and faculty, it is hoped that something more than a flat failure may result.
Mr. Chambers has left a standard which will be hard to surpass or even equal. The K. U. WEEKLY under his administration has been a clean, dignified, sensible college paper. Nothing of a questionable nature has appeared in his columns; no unjust criticism against university, student body or faculty has occurred; and the general tone of the publication has been one of sincerity and elevation.
It is felt that the policy of the K. U. WEEKLY could scarcely be improved upon and the future endeavors will be to emulate the general policy of the paper as it comes to our hands.
The editors feel that a considerable degree of responsibility rests upon them to make this paper worthy of the great institution which supports it. The co-operation of every student and faculty member will be necessary for the highest success and if such assistance is given there is no reason why the WEEKLY should not be the best paper of the best University in the West.
THE MICHIGAN University faculty has purchased the daily university paper from the student corporation which did own it and its publication will henceforth be a part of the work of the English department. The reporters will be given credit upon their English work for all work done on the paper.
This is a move that Kansas University could well imitate. In the first place it would guarantee a good college paper, plenty of material and an army of reporters. Again the financial interests of the publication would be sound and a choice of the right sort of men for running the paper could be easily made. There would be a motive for a reporter to perform efficient service. The work would be divided up to a greater extent instead of a very few having to perform it all. It will be interesting to watch the action of other colleges in this matter if the new Michigan paper is a success.
SMILE.
Tis easy enough to be pleasant
When life flows along like a song;
But the man that's worth while
Is the one that can smile
When everything goes dead wrong.
"TRUTH CRUSHED to earth will rise again." In spite of the fun which the Kansas newspapers have been poking at the K. U. class in journalism, the first two members who have left school have already received positions on Kansas City papers. We feel confident that Mr. Edson and Mr. Clifford will more than satisfy the expectations of their friends.
+
THE PROPOSITION of building a hospital in Kansas City by the University is one that should be carried out. The medical school would then have an opportunity to provide clinical practice for its students and the school could then be enlarged to a full four years' course. By eatting down "ventilation" expenses at the next meeting of the legislature, Kansas could easily afford to make the necessary appropriation and the University would be able to offer the best course in medicine that could be found west of Chicago.
CORNELL UNIVERSITY pensions her professors at the age of seventy. They receive a salary after that age of $1500 per year. This year four professors will reach the age limit. Every educational institution in the country might profit by this example. If any class of men deserve pensions it is the university professors. They spend all their years of usefulness at work in the interest of a college at salary that will barely allow them a livelihood. It is through their efforts that the institution becomes a leader among its kind. It is then simply a matter of abstract justice that the institution which they have assisted for years should in return care for them during their last years.
THE OUTLOOK for Spring Athletics is not as bright as it might be. Several of the University's best men in track athletics and base ball will not try for places this spring. This means that the freshmen must fill up the vacant ranks. Let every first year man, who ever ran a hundred yards or batted at a base ball, interest himself in Spring Athletics. Captain Sexton is especially desirous that all base ball players shall report as soon as possible. Now is the time to show university spirit. It makes little difference how well you can play. Get out anyway. Show that you have some interest in the athletic teams. Even if you don't feel that you can make a place, your example may get another man out who can be of use to the University.
+
The University schedule for base ball will be of a better character than usual. Our team will meet some of the best teams of the country and we must be prepared to show them that the K. U. base ball team is second to none.
In track athletics we will have a hard contest with Missouri. Our defeat at her hands means that it is all the more necessary that we win from her this year. Only by the greatest efforts can we hope to do this.
The effort must be made by the individual The material to win every track event of the season is in the University but the men who can do track work must come out for practice.
Let us start in this spring and make a clean sweep in athletic contests for the entire year of 1904.
THE RHODES Scholarship contest seems to be exciting considerable interest over in Iowa. Twenty-two applications representing nine schools have been made. Every college of any standing from the University down, has one or more contestants.
We should be thinking of this scholarship at K.U. There is no reason why some K.U. student should not be an Oxford student next year. Gird up your loins, get your armor on, and march in and get one of those scholarships.
INTERCOLLEGIATE NEWS.
President Harper has announced that the University of Chicago is no longer a Baptist institution. That the university has broadened out until it is no longer under the allegiance of the Baptist Church. President Harper says: "Religious denominationalism in Universities is narrow-mindedness, and the fact that the University of Chicago has broken away from this class is an evidence of its mental progress. Denominationalism may apply to small colleges but not to large ones."
President Jesse of the University of Missouri in an address at Columbia, named the five expressidents of the United States, whom he considered had been the great champions of education. He mentioned Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Harrison and Cleveland as the five who had proved themselves great friends to education Of President Roosevelt, Mr. Jesse said: "In legislation now pending Roosevelt, that magnificent hero and man, has had his opportunity to include his name in the list."

The Oread Club has issued invitations for a dance to be given in Pythian hall, Friday evening, Feb. 12.
One of the most enjoyable dances of the season was given Monday evening by the young men of Phi Delta Theta. The unique and beautiful decorations quite transformed the hall. Festoons of red draped the walls and formed a canopy above. The effect was further enhanced by the use of red lights. During the evening a delicious buffet supper was served in the balcony. Many out of town guests shared the pleasures of the evening and the presence of several alumni members added to the enjoyment of this very charming social event.
A very pleasant social event of last week was the card party given Saturday evening by Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Progressive whist was played and the evening was filled with many pleasant details.
The Thetas were guests at a card party given Saturday afternoon by Miss Helen Schaeffer for the Misses May and Kate Critchfield of Oskaloosa.
X Y. Z. DEBATING CLUB
The regular meeting of the X. Y.Z Debating Club was held in the club room Saturday evening, January 30. Several visitors were present.
The program was opened by a parliamentary drill led by Leimbach. Following this extempore
talks were given by Logan and Coleman. The debate was on the question: Resolved, that the action of the United States in the Panama affair was hasty and ill-advised. Tritt and Linton spoke on the affirmative, and were successfully opposed by Deering and Bartlett. An eight minute talk was given by Earhart.
Graduate and other non-resident members of the club are requested to send in their addresses without delay, in order that the news letter may be sent to them. Address all communications to C.A. Leinbach, 1232 Vermont street, Lawrence, Kansas.

Y. M. C. A. CONCERT.
The concert given last night under the auspices of the University Y. M. C. A. was attended by a large audience. Those present considered the program a rare treat.
Misses Bowersock, Boright and Greissinger opened the program with a very appropriate number: (a) andante, (b) allegro by Weber. They were well received as usual.
Mr. Steele sang the Toreador's song with the dramatic fire that this solo requires. He responded with an encore, "Love is a Bubble."
Mr. Steele is director of the Schubert Club of Kansas City. The singers are all pupils of Mr. Steele. They certainly showed the results of careful and proper methods of training.
Miss Downing displayed the flexibility of her voice in her rendition of the difficult selection from the Huguenots. As an encore she sang "Three Little Chestnuts," which was very pleasing.
The aria from the "Damnation of Faust" is very passionate and difficult to interpret. Miss Clark's rendition was splendid.
Mr. Burress who is a senior in the University, has been studying with Mr. Steele during the past year. This was his first appearance before a Lawrence audience since he began studying. The improvement of his singing was very marked.
Miss MacDonald's work in accompanying deserves special mention. She showed ability.
Mr. Van Bergen, the young baritone, has a voice of remarkable resonance and power. He responded to a double encore.
The quartette numbers were very heavy, especially the one from the opera Rigoletto which is full of dramatic feeling.

NEWS FROM SOUTH AMERICA
The University expedition to South America under direction of Mr. Handel T. Martin has been heard from again and is prospering. Letters written on Christmas day say that the expedition is still at Bahia Blanca, but expects to proceed by government steamer to Gallegos, Santa Cruz, in a few days. Much help and many courtesies have been received from Dr. Moreno, director of the La Plata Museum. The expedition also received unexpected and very acceptable assistance from one of the important journals of South America at Buenos Ayres. The proprietor has put at the service of the expedition tour horses and equipment which he ordered from his Estancia. Newspaper men are enterprising in South America as elsewhere.
The members of the expedition are well and Mr. Martin expects to send back valuable material for the University.
ALPHA TAU PARTY.
Alpha Tau Omega held its annual spring party February 5th and a large number of friends enjoyed the pleasures of the evening. A decorative scheme carried out in green and white made Everett hall look especially attractive. Ropes of evergreen were carried from the ceiling to the four corners of the room, while large white Doric pillars, arched with evergreen and profusely studded with electric lights, formed very pretty cozy corners.
Punch was served throughout the evening and during the intermission a course supper was served in the balcony.
The party was a most enjoyable affair and the evening will be long remembered.
HARPER'S IDEAL PROFESSOR?
The qualification as for the ideal college professor, as outlined by President Harper in a lecture at the University of Chicago last week, on "the faculty of a college; are:
3. He should mix with his class students outside the class room.
1. He should be married.
1. He should be a church member.
4. He should have a doctor's degree.
6. He should be in sympathy with the public and take an active interest in public affairs.
"The college professor who is married," said President Harper, "will do three times as much good in his position as one who is single. And if he has three or four children he will be better off for he will be a stronger man."
5. He should be willing to work hard eleven months in the year.

The meetings of the past week were very well attended and considerable interest shown, and it is hoped that the membership and congregation will be still better represented.
Cornell has finally decided to give up the attempt of founding an honor system. The students were asked to sign two condition one of which was a promise neither to give nor receive help, and the other to report any other student found guilty of breaking these rules. Almost all the students signed the first, but very few the second. Students found guilty were to be reported first to a student committee and this committee to report to the faculty. The fact that so many students refused to sign the second agreement is the reason for abandoning the scheme. Hereafter there is to be a space between every two persons trying an examination, and an instructor will always be present. The experiment has been watched closely by different colleges throughout the country and by many its rejection will be received with regret.

MISS JUNO SHANE.
The building and grounds committee of the board of regents at the University of California has nearly consummated plans for an immense amphitheater somewhat on the plan of the new Harvard Stadium. Architect John Galen Howard, an alumnus of the institution, has been drawing up working plans for an athletic field that will be second to none in the country. The site is rather uneven necessitating excavating and refilling costing $40,000. Tha amphitheatre will include a base ball diamond and a cinder running track besides the foot ball field. Temporary wooden bleachers and later on, concrete seats, will be put in place. It is thought that some of the old buildings will be torn down to make room for the new field.

During the engagement of the "Uncle Josh Spruceby" company at Bowersock's Opera House for Monday night, Feb. 8, commencing at 8:15, a big street parade will be given at noon, and press agent Heckman promises this will be something new and unique. The company carries a big band, dressed in the "garb" of the rustic and the other in military costume. During the parade the band gives a splendid concert which attracts much attention and generally draws a crowd that reminds you of a Barnum & Bailey Circus day.

LECTURE BY PROF. H. B. WARD.
The Responsibility of the Mosquito in the Transmission of Discase.
The New Jersey specter has been long suspected but it was only in 1899 that medical men actually proved mosquitoes guilty of passing around the germs of malaria and 1900 when it was established that it was also responsible for the dissemination of yellow fever microbes.
In his lecture he said that there were four principal diseases which were directly transmitted by mosquitoes-leprosy, yellow fever and malaria, and in the tropics, elephantiasis.
Prof. H. B. Ward of the Universitid of Nebraska lectured Thursday night before the Sigma Xi fraternity and their invited guests. Dr. Snow, in his happy way, introduced the speaker and revealed the interesting fact that Mr. Ward's father and himself were formerly school fellows at Williams. Mr. H. B. Ward himself graduated at Williams in 1885 and later took his Ph. D. degree at Harvard. He has been at Nebraska twelve years and is at present professor of Zoology and dean of the Medical school. Dr. Ward is a recognized authority on parasitical worms and his lecture Thursday night revealed a fund of knowledge concerning mosquitoes and diseases transmitted by them.
The mouth parts of the mosquito are mainly instrumental in a transmission of the disease microbes. The germ is imbedded in the inner lining of the proboscis of the insect. When the mosquito begins his ghoulish meal upon a healthy victim. The incasementin which the germ is imbedded is ruptured and the microbe thrust into the wound. Science has not yet accounted for this latter phenomenon for it seems impossible that the mosquite should deliberately injure itself even to get rid of such a troublesome guest as the yellow fever microbe. The danger of infection from mosquitoes can be avoided if their breeding places can be destroyed. Rain barrels and small pools of stagnant water are the places in which the eggs are laid. Prof. Ward earnestly recommended the abolishment of everything of that nature. He ascribed the healthy condition of Havana to the fact that the swampy places in the city had been leveled and the barrels of stagnant water cleared away.
Dr. Ward referred to the work of Grassi in Italy. In a certain district of that country the average life of the railroad employee was but two years.
In a mosquito country the inhabitants should protect themselves by good screens on the doors and mosquito netting about the bed at night.

THE EDITORS V. SIT K. U.
Prof. Carruth Addresses the Association
Last Thursday morning the State Editorial Association visited the University in a body. From 8 to 10 the newspaper men and women looked over the campus and visited the various buildings. The liquid air plant was put in operation for their inspection, the X-ray machine was on exhibition and the shops and museum were thrown open for the examination of the visitors.
At 10 o'clock the Association attended the chapel services, where J. H. Atwood of Leavenworth addressed the editors and students. Mr. Atwood first threw several boquets at the students, at any rate called them the "flower" of the student body of Kansas. The speaker went on to say that it was the custom for men in his position to give advice to students and said that he was willing to give them the 'brand' they desired. He reviewed the present commercial tendencies in man's idea of success and while admitting that the quest of material benefits should not be forgotten, begged that the higher things of life should be given a higher place.
Mr. Atwood is a very eloquent and forceful speaker and his address was one of the best that the University students have heard in Fraser hall.
After the chapel exercises, the association held its morning session in the chapel and Col. D.R Anthony addressed the newspaper men.
Prof. Carruth addressed the Editorial association Monday night on "The University and the Newspaper." He spoke about the close relation between the public school system and the newspaper. The professor explained the real status of the present course in journalism, which the university has begun. At the close of his talk he mentioned the names of a number of former university men and women who are doing successful newspaper work. Among them are Messrs Scott, McLennan, Harrington, Morgan, White, Charles, Flint, Finch, Hall, Learnard, Hudson, Bennet, Whitman, Shot, Stout, Shellbarger, Edson, Clifford, Post, Barcus, Krehbiel and Misses Riddle, Rhinehart, Johnson and Beck.
EXPERIMENTS IN STATISTICS.
Professor Boynton's class in statistics have been requested to make a comparative study and to tabulate the statistical census of the Sunday school attendance of this city. The boys will start upon the work Monday. As it is an opportunity to apply to a practical test the theories studied the class has gladly undertaken the work.
ATHLETICS
K. U. MEDICS 32-HASKELL 28.
Friday night, Feb. 5th, the basket ball team of the medical school of K.U. and one of the Indian teams from Haskell played a rather close, though not very good game in the university gymnasium. The Indians had the better of it in the first half, but the medies won by 32 to 28.

The base ball men are beginning to work out regularly in the gymnasium. Capt. Sexton expresses himself as well satisfied with the amount of available material that is showing up. A much larger freshman squad than usual is making application for places on the team and the prospects for a good team are growing much brighter. Among the old men who are practicing are Allen, Morgan, Woodford, Love, besides Capt. Sexton.
"The complete base ball schedule," says Manager Plank, "will be arranged shortly." The games between Missouri and Kansas will be played the last week of school, the games at Columbia coming the last week in May, and the Lawrence games the first week in June.

THE CONTESTANTS for the inter-state debates are being eclipsed daily by a variety of students engaged in the discussion of the probable outcome of the Japan-Russian controversy in the far East.
POPFESSOR HOPKINS is getting ready to make an "investigation,, in the class in journalism. He had presumed that hustling news ar I working out special assignments was not conducive to the growth of the tender sentiment, but the discovery of divers verses of an affectionate character has changed his mind.
THE COMMITTEE of "Twenty-Two" is doing some highly commendable work in raising funds for the building of a club house on McCook field.
There is certainly a necessity for some sort of a shelter tor visiting athletic teams. The gymnasium is too far from the grounds to take a team for bath and dressing room accommodations and at a small expense these can be provided for on the field. The plan of raising funds by the sale of K.U. buttons is a good one for every student wants some sort of a K.U. emblem and feels that the purchase has become a duty when the proceeds of the sale are to be used for a university purpose.
H. ATWOOD in his address to the Editorial Association Monday night that our present civilization rested upon two pillars—the newspaper and the public school system. In other words civilization is dependent on education. A glance at the great powers among the nations of the world satisfies the observer that such is the case. The quick rise of Japan on whom the eyes of the world are now turned, exemplifies this idea. Until a few years ago she shared the same position intellectually that China has and was the latter's inferior in national power. But she was willing to be taught. She threw her doors open to foreign enterprise. She was willing to learn all that others knew and the result has been to progress rapidly from a fourth or fifth rate nation to one that seems to be capable of holding her own with one of the greatest nations of the world.

She has eyes that can be steely. They would make you shiver really.
She has eyes that can be steely.
She's an eminently practical young miss;
And my faint heart goes a flutter
At the wisdom she can utter.
But the corners of her mouth turn up like this
She's unearthy fond of learning But her journalistic yearning
Those of masculine persuasion take amiss;
They're a blooming lot of stupids Not to see that bow of Cupid's
Where the corners of her mouth turn up like this _
She's distractingly specific On all matters scientific.
She's a living, breathing, moving sacrifice
On the alter of her "calling," And her fireness is apalling.
But-- the corners of her mouth turn up like this
She's cold blooded and we know it Independent and she'll show it.
But—the corners of her mouth turn up like this
And her style is far from being hit or miss.
She's the dearest little woman,
Could I but be sure she's human,
Heaven grant she doesn't take the
doubt amiss!
"donde daras!"
I've a mind to tell her nearly
That I love her dearly, dearly,
When the corners of her mouth
turn up like this
By a K. U. journalist.
COL. D. R. ANTHONY'S remark that "Brains are cheap; you can buy them cheaper than you can raise them," has not to the WEEKLY's knowledge been denied by a single member of the University faculty.
SINCE the breaking out of the war and the burning of Baltimore, articles relating to the Manhattan Cadot Corps, Missouri University's Chair of Poultry, and the "Chair of Journalism" at K. U. are not placed on the first page of the Kansas newspapers.
THERE IS considerable talk in university circles at present regarding the baneful influence of college traditions. One Michigan professor says "that college traditions are killing Oxford." If Oxford University is dying, it wouldn't hurt some of our Western instutitions even K. U., to try a trip with old Charon.
ISN'T THE K. U. yell wher given in enapel a little 'weak'? The WEEKLY hasn't any knocking to do upon the giving of the university yell in chapel, but couldn't we have just a little of the spirit in it that is manifested on the foot ball field? The students probably think that they should be quieter in the house than out doors and so endeavor to gently modulate their voices in the chapel; others think that their help will not be needed at first and wait until half the yell is finished before they join in the chorus; while a third class seem to save all their wind until the two final syllables, and not having used all their breath upon these, prolong the "U" with the soft drawn out cadences of a prairie wolf or a whipped spaniel.
When we yell in chapel, let's remember how we yelled at the Nebraska foot ball game and—raise the roof.
The law students at Yale recently tried Hamlet for the murder of Polonius. Fortunately for the melancholy Dane, one of the jury was opposed to capital punishment and so Hamlet got off with a life sentence.
The sixth annual international chess tournament between a team from Oxford and Cambridge and one from Harvard, Yale, Princeton and Columbia will be held in the latter part of March. Harvard and Yale are each entitled to two representatives on the American team, and Princeton and Columbia one each. The contest is for a silver shield offered by J.N.Rice of New York.
INTERCOLLEGIATE NEWS.
The students at the University of Chicago have formed a comic opera club.
The late Charles F. Doe of San Francisco has left a legacy of $600,000 to the University of California for a new library building. This is considered one of the most timely gifts ever made to Berkeley, as the need of an adequate library has been felt for a long time.
The American Classical University at Athens is the smallest university in the world, and has just commenced its twenty-third year of active work with six students. The students are all Americans, engaged in classical research work. An interesting fact about this large student body is that each student has a fellowship. Yale, Harvard, Dartmouth, Smith, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Wesleyan University are represented. The school has already performed valuable excavations at Corinth and this year will attempt to enter other fields.
X. Y. Z. DEBATING CLUB
The usual interesting meeting was held in the X Y. Z. club room last Saturday evening. The program was opened by a parliamentary drill, conducted by Livers.
The debate of the evening was on the question, Resolved, that the present attitude of Russia is a menace to the peace and safety of the civilized world. The discussion was participated in by Cowdrick and Logan for the affirmative, and Finch and Coleman for the negative. Petit, Livers and Leinbach officiated as judges and gave their decision in favor of the affirmative.
Following the debate, Leinbach gave an eight minute speech, and Petit an extempore talk. Both Mr. Petit and Mr. Leinbach spoke on subjects of especial interest to the club, and their remarks were received with hearty applause.
A short business meeting was held at the close of the literary program, and a considerable amount of routine business was transacted. The secretary was instructed to prepare a news bulletin and mail it to the nonresident members. This is in accordance with a rule adopted last fall, providing for a plan of systematic correspondence between the club and its graduate members.

THE DEAN.
The door of the dean's office opened and a bright looking girl, all smiles, rushed out and fairly into the arms of a girlfriend who was evidently waiting for her but who was not anticipating such an outburst of affection.
"Heavens, Francis, what's the matter?" she asked. "Do you take those often?"
"Oh Pearl," cried Francis, giving her friend a hug, "Isn't Mr. Templin the lovliest man? He let me take the very things I wanted to—signed my card without a word—and here I am. I never felt more relieved, or more pleased in my life. He never said a word about that chemistry, and—"
"Been to see the dean yet, girls?" The conversation was here interrupted by three girls who joined the two.
"Yes, just came out," said Francis triumphantly. "I think Prof. Templin is just the dearest man."
"Dearest!" exclaimed one of the new addition. "I must say I admire your style. I think that man Templin is the limit—absolutely the meanest man alive. Do you know I had my card all made out—just the studies I wanted—all ready to sign, and he refused to sign it. Now what do you think of that? Said I was back in chemistry and would have to make it up. Chemistry, mind you. Now what do you suppose he thinks I need about chemistry? Dear man, yes—dear indeed," and she gave her shoulders a sarcastic shrug.
"You ought to take a course in grafting, Mary," sympathized Pearl.
"I ought to take a course in something—that's a cinch," and the unfortunate girl left the others and walked down the hall.
"There's certainly a difference of opinion there," I said to myself as I leaned against the wall waiting for the next hour to come.
"Is that the dean's office there?"
I looked around and beside me stood a well-dressed lad of eighteen pointing at the door leading to Prof. Templin's office.
"Yes," I answered.
The young yellow stood beside me looking alternately at me and Prof. Templin's door. I noticed that the boy was nervous and wondered whether it was due to his hesitancy in talking to me, or to his fear of coming face to face with the dean.
"Say, what sort of a guy is this dean?" he asked at length, putting particular emphasis on the word guy, evidently trying to convey the impression that he knew one or two things himself and was not ashamed to say them.
"Why he's a fair sort of a man," I answered. "Why?"
"Well, it's just this way," he said in a rather confidential tone. "It's a pretty good thing for a young fellow to know just what he's running up against. You see I've flunked out proper this term and have petitioned the faculty to get back in school. I put up a song and dance about being sick, and being called home. Now some of those profs are wise guys you know and the sick racket won't work. They want
a doctor's certificate and all that sort of rot. What I want is to get a line on the dean's disposition, so in case I have to string him I'll know what to say."
"You'd better take care the way you use your hot air apparatus," I said to him. "The best thing you can do is to see whether your petition was granted."
"He's one of those wise guys, eh?" he replied knowingly. "Guess it's up to me to try my luck," and he started for the dean's office.
The young fellow's candor, and the fine quality of his news,made me anxious to know how he and the dean would come out, so I followed him into the office.
"Is this the dean?" he asked smiling! .
"I am that party," replied the dean smiling back. "Something I can do for you?"
"Yes. My name is Jones. I—"
"Oh, all right Mr. Jones. I've got a petition of yours here, haven't I?"
"Yes, I am sorry to say," said this gay young decipher. "I've had a great deal of trouble this past term."
"You're surely not alone in your troubles," remarked the dean, looking through a number of papers which were carefully folded and fastened together with a ruoer band. "Jones. Dick Jones. Is that right?"
"Been sick, have you?" asked the dean, looking up at him and smiling. "You seem to be in fair condition now."
The boy nodded his head.
"Yes; I am," responded Dick. "But I was greatly handicapped at the beginning of the term. I was sick here and then my father was taken sick and they wrote for me to come home."
"Did you try to make up your work?"
"Yes, I worked hard; but I didn't catch up."
"So it seems," answered the dean. "The impression seems to be that you are bright enough at times, but rather unsteady. Do you want to go on with your work?"
"Yes, very much indeed."
"Do you think you will come out all right, if we let you try it again next term?"
"Very well" said the dean kindly, "Guess we'll give you another trial Mr. Jones."
"Yes, sir."
And as the dean looked over Dick's cards, Dick looked up, saw me, and winked his eye."
Meanwhile—where's the dean?
He is seated back of his roller-top desk, smiling; before him a sort of vaudeville—a continuous performance is going on, when anything funny happens he smiles; when anything apparently sad happens, he smiles, when hearts seem to bleed and break, he smiles. Like the man watching a great tragedy, he knows it is all in the show. But the performers in the dean's show work at a disadvantage. In most shows there is a large audience, and what doesn't appeal to one may appeal to another. In the dean's show—the dean is the whole audience. Everything has to appeal to him—so it seems.
"He's a perfect cinch," whispered Jones to me as he left the office.
This is why one student called him 'the dearest man'—she had pleased him; and another 'the meanest man'—she had displeased him; and another 'a perfect cinch'—he thought he had fooled the dean.
But appearances are deceitful. In a little yellow book which the dean keeps in front of him there is a rule:—Rule I, "The dean of each school shall be charged with the execution of all University and faculty rules relating to the enrollment of students in classes and their choice of studies." This rule is stamped indelibly on the dean's mind; all his decisions are based upon it. He smiles because his position is so generally misunderstood. He is simply a means toward an end—a wheel in a big machine. And incidentally he smiles at human vanity, intrigue and cunning.

Under Classmen in California Under Guardianship of Seniors.
Prof, Clark of Chicago Criticises College Men.
The seniors of the University o California have been given control of the freshmen and sophomore classes of that institution. Henceforth the hoary seniors will be represented unofficially at all lower classmen meetings. Their permission must be obtained for all actions relating to class parties; they will judge the first and second year men for all misdemeanors committed by them; and the seniors are responsible to the university management for all acts of vandalism on the part of lower classmen. The class rushes, the elections of class officers and the holding of all class meetings will be regulated by the '04 men. Heretofore the various classes have had to give bonds to the university management to guarantee them against damage by class vandalism. These will be required no longer and the senior class will depend upon its smoothness and acumen to run down the perpetrators of all such damages and exact payment from the guilty ones.
Prof. S. H. Clark, head of the department of Public Speaking at Chicago University, has been telling the students there a few things. He said: "The average student is an unthinking, impractical being—in other universities." He further remarked that each man owed a duty to himself, his family and his college. Regarding one's duty to his college, he said: "A man owes more to his college than to whoop up foot ball nonsense." Then the fraternities came in for their share of attention. "Fraternities," he continued, "that do not pay their debts, as most of those in this institution do not, are disgraces to us; they are types of absolute immorality." As a final shot he said: "You are all beggars! You are paying $120 a year for an education that costs the university $300 You are objects of charity. What are you doing to justify it? The poor man in the stockyards pays taxes to help educate you. The rich man doesn't deserve all the credit. It's a charity to take his money. You owe the poor man the most."
LECTURE BY PROF. H. B. WARD.
Continued from page 1.
The region was deluged by mosquitoes which transmitted the germs of malarial fever. Grassi persuaded the people to guard their houses and to wear gloves and a netting to protect the face while at work. As a result the inhabitants who followed his advice were not infected. The people who disregarded it succumbed to the malarial ravages as before. The burden of the lecturer's argument was. "The mosquito must be destrored."
After the lecture an informal reception was given Dr. Ward by the members of the Sigma Xi. The mandolin club graciously assisted and light refreshments were served.

The K. U. basket ball five was defeated by the William Jewell five on the latter's court by a score of 27 to 7, Wednesday night.
The K. U. boys never played together before and their defeat was due more to fear than anything else. Brown, Barlow, Stelter, Beheimer and Adams represented Kansas.
ATHLETICS 27—KANSAS 10.
一
The Kansas basket ball five was defeated by the Kansas City Athletics on the latter's court, Thursday night, by a score of 27 to 10.
The first half was an easy one for the Athletics, the Kansas boys not getting into the play very much and the half closed at 14 to 1 in favor of the athletics.
In the second half, the playing was much faster. Cannon started the hall by two spectacular goals. Then Kansas took a start, Michaelson scoring first, and this was quickly followed by two more. The Athletics here took a brace, Rickerson und Allen both succeeding in throwing difficult goals.
The Kansas team seemed to lack practice and team work. Some of the men seemed in poor condition, while the Athletics were in fine form and their team work was fine.
The game was not marked by any particularly brilliant individual playing.

BASE BALL
Manager Plank accompanied the basket ball team to Kansas City and while there inquired into the status of the indoor track meet. He reports things moving along fine.
There are about twenty-five applicants working out daily in the g.m and the prospects for a good team are improving daily. Manager Plank has turned in the base ball schedule to the athletic board, but it has not yet been approved.
The Y. M. C. A. of Kansas City and the Kansas City Athletic Club want to enter into some of the events. This is perfectly agreeable to both Missouri and Kansas and will lend a great deal of enthusiasm. The work is being carried on with renewed vigor.

Bethany Loses Her Greatest Educator.
News of the death of Dr. Carl Swensson, president of Bethany College, was received Tuesday. The eminent Swedish educator was stricken with pneumonia while in Los Angeles where he had gone to dedicate a church and the attack proved fatal. His funeral will be held Tuesday at his home in Lindsborg and hundreds of his countrymen as well as a great many Americans will do honor to his memory.
In the death of Dr. Swensson Kansas has lost a brilliant citizen and the cause of higher education has been robbed of one of its foremost champions. Twenty-one years ago Dr. Swensson founded Bethany College for the purpose of providing a Western college for the many Swedish young men and women who could not afford an education at Augustana College or in the universities of Sweden. His efforts to make his college a factor among the colleges of the state and nation have met with success and today Bethany stands as one of the leading institutions of learning in Kansas and holds a place second only to Augustana among the Swedish colleges of America.
Dr. Swensson was a man of many sides. He was a devout member of the Swedish Lutheran church and held prominent positions in that church in America. He founded his college primarily for Swedish Lutherans but his broadminded methods made it popular with many outside that sect. His hold upon the Swedish people of North Central Kansas was wonderful. They would do anything for him and their great ambition seemed to be to educate their children at Bethany. Lindsborg was a veritable Mecca to them and it was all on account of Dr. Swensson. He took an important part in the politics of the state and had he cared to run for office might very probably have been elected to congress at one time but he had dedicated his life to Bethany and neither the temptations of a political career nor the flattering offers from other institutions could induce him to leave his first love, the little college on the prairie. His great services for the Swedish people of this country came to the notice of King Oscar of Sweden and that monarch sent Bishop von Scheele from the royal court of Stockholm to the little town on the plains of Kansas to confer upon Dr. Swensson the Order of the North Star, an order of Swedish knighthood given only to the founders of great institutions.
Dr. Swensson was an American born Swede. He was thoroughly Americanized although he was educated in Sweden and was ever loyal to his fatherland.
He urged his countrymen to follow the ways of the new world and to be progressive. They listened to his advice with the result that today Kansas numbers among her best and most reliable citizens, thousands of the descen lents of the sturdy Norsemen. The great work of Dr. Swensson was not completed but only fairly begun when death claimed him. He would have built up at Lindsborg a college which could compare favorably with the best of Western institutions; for already many students had been attracted from the West and some even from the East. It is sincerely to be hoped that those upon whom the responsibility of keeping Bethany up to its present standard and pushing the good work along may be successful.
Among the students of Kansas University there is a feeling of sincerest sympathy for Bethany College in her hour of misfortune.

INTERCOLLEGIATE NEWS.
Alabama has already begun playing base ball.
The University of California is planning to give Sunday afternoon concerts in its Greek Theater. The different musical organizations of the university will alternate in giving them.
The 29th of February is to be celebrated as Leap Year Labor day at California. Every man in the student body will use the pick and shovel that day in helping to improve the campus. The women students will be present to serve refreshments. The affair will end with a big bon fae and a student rally in the Greek Theater. It is rumored that the labor unions have registered their usual kick and are trying to change the plans.
The Californian states that the seniors at their university are to be photographed in their plug hats in their new Greek Theater. We have noticed that California is very proud of its Greek Theater, but we hardly suspected that the heads of the students had swelled to such an extraordinary size.
Of the senators in the fifty-eighth congress, fifty-eight are college graduates. Of the congressmen, two hundred and fifteen out of a total of three hundred eighty-two are college men.

IN SOME of the eastern colleges, notably Princeton and Columbia, matters of student discipline are left to the students, and the faculty members are relieved of the police duties which they are called upon to discharge in most institutions of learning. It is found to be a fact usually that where the students themselves suggest that they be given charge of such matters the system works well but where the faculty takes the initiative in establishing the "honor system" it does not succeed. The failure of the proposed innovation at Cornell recently is an example of this fact. Princeton also had a similar experience for when the faculty attempted to start the regime of student rule the plan failed and was later taken up by the students and made successful.
It is not greatly to be wondered at that the plan submitted by the Cornell faculty met with defeat. The faculty imposed three duties upon the students, all of which had to do with cheating in examinations. In the first place all students were required to promise to receive no aid in examinations. They were then asked to promise to give no assistance and finally to agree to report all cases of cheating to a student committee which would call the attention of the faculty to the offenses. The Cornell students were willing to accept the first two propositions but very few were found who would agree to act the role of informant upon their classmates.
It would seem that a great many things were asked of the students. If all students would agree to receive no aid and keep their agreement, cheating would be done away with but besides this all students must agree to give no help. What is the use of the second condition? If no one would receive aid, no one could give aid. If the students broke the first promise they would not be likely to keep the second one any better. The fact that so many conditions were imposed would indicate that the faculty did not have a great deal of faith in the honor of the student body and when students think that they are distrusted by their professors there is all the more tendency to cheat in examinations.
The idea of each student acting as a spy, however, was justly very unpopular with the students. From his earliest school
days the American boy is trained to hate a "tattler." Very few of us, unless it be some mamma's boy who used to play the part, have ever forgiven the lad who always ran to the teacher every time an interesting fight was started or some rule broken and as remuneration for his services was granted indulgences not enjoyed by the rank and file of the pupils. It is not that students favor the wholesale breaking of rules but that they hate the spy system which makes the informant idea so unpopular.
The question of how to eliminate cheating in examinations is a very hard one to answer. If the honor system could be made to work successfully it would be by far the most satisfactory but it seems to be difficult to find a faculty which has sufficient faith in the honor of the student body to install such a system on a popular basis. It is a well known fact that the professor who tries the hardest to keep his students from cheating is the one who is the most imposed upon. No man could be acute enough to detect all the schemes for cheating which the fertile minds of the students devise, for it really takes a brighter person to cheat well than to pass an examination, for which he is fully prepared, without cheating. As long then as the honor system is not installed there are sure to be cases of cheating and even where the system has been adopted there are occasional instances of fraud.
In view of the fact that there is so much danger of injustice in regular written examinations it would seem wise to reduce their importance to the lowest possible degree. A professor who has the opportunity to watch the work of a student under him for an entire semester ought to be able to tell pretty closely what kind of a grasp he has upon the subject. In cases where the professor is in doubt why not resort to an oral examination? There could be no chance of the student cheating in such an examination and the instructor could get a much better idea of what he really knew about the subject by an informal talk than by reading a paper which the student had written probably honestly but perhaps dishonestly. Writer examinations seem to be a sort of tradition in American schools but it would seem that they might be dispensed with without lowering the standing of the institution and at the same time increase the justice of grades. A great many professors do not grade a great deal upon examinations and some do not ever look at the papers. In cases of this kind the student who cheats gains nothing while the one who takes the examination honestly really gains by exercising his memory and practicing writing down his thoughts under pressure.
TOO MANY students of history do not realize the value of the History Conference which has just begun its work for the year. This is a movement in which every history student should be interested. The work which is taken up in the
conference is, to a great extent, of a character not obtained in the class room but which is of vast importance as a side light upon regular history courses. Mr. Boynton's paper upon "The Black Death" at the first meeting will serve as an excellent example. Aside from the mere historical importance of this terrible pestilence, he pointed out the grave social and economic dangers which it brought about. He awakened the minds of his hearers to the broader view of a historical event and caused them to see it clothed with a new significance. This broadening of historical conceptions; the study of the close relation which history bears to other studies; the influence other than historical which is reflected by historical events, is a phase of history study which is too often missed by the student who buries himself in the text book of history. The broad study of history must be carried on from several view points.
This is the idea that is carried out in the History Conference, and the man or woman who would get the most out of his or her historical studies will miss an opportunity for additional help in the work by failing to take advantage of these meetings.
THE ELECTION of the Phi Beta Kappas from the senior class last Monday was an event which will be remembered by nineteen members of the Class of 1904 with feelings of pride and gratification. For nearly four years a large number of the senior class have been working for this reward. Every final grade has been awaited with fear and trembling lest it should dash the hopes for this honorary position. At last it is over, the candidates have been chosen and the WEEKLY extends congratulations to the successful nineteen. They have earned the position by hard earnest effort and deserve the honor shown them.
Perhaps there are some members of the class who are lisappointed because they too, were not among the chosen. They can have the comfort of remembering that they belong to the class of 1904—about the best ever—and incidentally assure themselves that even a Phi Beta Kappa don't have a quit claim deed to all the good things in life and that there are still honors to be fought for to which they are eligible.
THE heavy mortality list among the freshmen in the recent term examinations shows two things:first that Kansas University is steadily demanding a higher standard of scholarship on the part of its students,and second;that the high school preparatory courses are too often inadequate for proper preparation for a university course.
$ \mathrm{T}^{1} $
The office of High School Visitor at the University was created for the purpose of getting the high schools into closer touch with the University and if this can be accomplished and the courses of study in the various high schools altered to meet University requirements the time
will shortly arrive when the percentage of failures in the freshman class will be no greater than that of the upper classes.
DESPIITE Carrie Nation's ef. forts to overshadow George Washington's work with the hatchet, we invariably turn our thoughts to the father of our country at this time of the year, when working up the morning kindling.
THE freshman base ball team is budding out early this spring. Some of the other classes smile and predict frost.

THE TRUE STORY OF GEORGE
George Washington was born Feb. 22, 1732 in Virginia. From earliest intancy George gave promise of becoming a leader among men, in fact leading his unhappy father a dog's life before he had cut his first teeth. He was considerably interested in the cutting business all thro' his career. He had scarcely finished with his molars, when, his biographers inform us, that he began the devastation of living timber in his neighborhood. This accounts for the present lack of rain fall and consequently poor errors in northern Virginia.
When the Revolutionary war broke out George saw what was up and first began making proverbs. "My Country 'tis of Thee," he said as he took command of the Revolutionary troops. George was an eminently successful lad when it came to the fighting act. John L Sullivan and Jim Jefferies pale into the insignificance of an iidescent dream in comparison. But the British couldn't keep George busy. He pined for something more to do beside whipping the British. While pitching horse shoes one Sunday with Lafyette, at Valley Forge, he suddenly said, "Egad! Lafe, I'll do it." "Do what," said Lafayette. "Why, start an orphan asylum." And the old war horse did it and he is yet known as father on account of it.
After George had sung "Good Night Ladies" in a touching ten
or to the last boat load of John Bull's "Tommys," he turned his attention to running his farm and making a constitution for the colonies. Being handy with the hatchet the constitution carving didn't take him long. He was at a considerable loss as to what to do with himself, when he suddenly discovered that his country needed a president. He told the people that he'd take the job as it took a good deal of time and he could easily turn the farm over to Martha for a little while. George made the best president the country had ever seen by long odds, so that the people made him give an encore to the first performance. At the end of his second term George said: "I would rather be right than president." and retired to his country home where he and Martha soon had the reputation of bringing the best butter and likeliest chickens to town of any people in those parts.
X. Y. Z. DEBATING CLUB.
The regular meeting of the X Y.Z. club was held in the club room Saturday afternoon, February 13. The program was opened by a parliamentary drill led by Bartlett. Tillotson and Coleman gave extempore talks.
The debate of the evening was on the question: Resolved, that the present system of city government is responsible for the corruption and abuses in municipalities. Petit, Tritt, Leinbach and Logan took part in the discussion.
LECTURE ON CORINTH.
The program was closed by an eight minute talk by Grant, on the jury system.
Prot. Richardson, for ten years director of the American school of Archaeology at Athens, will give an illustrated lecture on Corinth in University hall next Friday evening.
Corinth was a large and rich city in both ancient and early Christian times, and excavations there have brought to light interesting remains from both periods. These excavations were conducted under the personal supervision of Prof. Richardson, and he will show us the results in his lecture. It ought to interest all students and faculty, and it is hoped that every one who can take advantage of the presence in our midst of such a man as Prof. Richardson and hear him. The lecture is free and open to all.

Some more silence
A young lady at one of the clubs—a freshman, by the way, had just finished her breakfast and was starting for the hill. On the front porch she met a man with a basket on his arms. "Mornin' miss," said he, "dyer want ter buy any cabbages this mornin'?" "No sir," replied the girl, drawing herself up to her full height, "I do not smoke, thank you." The young girl had a younger brother and she thought that tobacco was made out of cabbage.

DR. FIFIELD ADDRESSES STUDENTS
The Rev. Dr. Fifield of the First Congregational church of Kansas City made a short talk to the University students at chapel exercises Friday morning. His topic was the Ideal Life and he pictured graphically the beauty and advantages of living as close to the ideal as possible. He resolved the ideal life into three simple elements, first the toiler, second friendship or love, third, faith. "These three," said he, "represent the three dimensions of a regular symmetrical life, even as the three dimensions, height, breadth and thickness regulate the shape of a solid cube."
PHI BETA KAPPA ELECTION
The annual Phi Beta Kappa election was held last Monday, the following members of the senior class being elected: Lucy Abel, Louise Alder, Arthur H. Basye, Jessie Bennett, Frank E. Burford, Kate Clark, E. S. Cowdrick, Caryl Dodds, Walter Easton, Florence Forrest, Mary L. Johnson, Geo. W. M. Nutting, Roxana Oldroyd, Eleanor Pattison, Chas. Harker Rhodes, Hazel Smith, Geo. Willis, J. B. Wilson, Bessie Wood.
The Phi Beta Kappa Society was organized at the College of William and Mary in 1776. It was a secret organization until the anti-Masonic movement in 1831, when the feeling against all secret societies was so strong that the Harvard Society abandoned the oath of secrecy; this example was soon followed by the other chapters. John Quincy Adams and Judge Story, both members of the society, were instrumental in having the secret organization abandoned. The society, however, continued,having for its object the promotion of scholarship and friendship among students and graduates of American colleges. Among the early chapters established were Yale 1780, Harvard 1781, Dartmouth 1787. The present chapter roll numbers fifty three.
Alpha Chapter of Kansas was organized April 1890,the charter being granted on petition of the members resident as members of the faculty. The charter members still resident are Dr. Snow, Prof. Blake and Dr. Wilcox.
The election to the Phi Beta Kappa Society is purely honorary in its character, and the number elected is restricted to one-fourth of the graduating class. Election to Phi Beta Kappa is the greatest honor that is here conferred, and those elected are to be congratulated upon this recognition of their ability.
E. T. COLTON'S ADDRESS.
Mr. E. T. Colton addressed a large audience of university men last night at the M. E. church upon "The University Man's First Law." Mr. Colton is a fine speaker and every one felt highly pleased at having the opportunity to listen to him.
No one who heard him went away without carrying some good thought with him.
Mr. Colton will speak again Sunday to university men at the Congregational church at 3 p. m. on the subject: "The Unalterable Rule of Healthy Life."
SOCIETY.
The local chapter of Phi Kappa Psi celebrated the fifty-second anniversary of the founding of the fraternity with a dinner at the chapter house Friday night. Dean F. A. Marvin, a charter member of this chapter, acted as toastmaster and all the Phi Psis of the faculty were present. Among the Phi Psis from out of town who were in the city for the banquet were Frank J. Merrill, Paola; J. A. Peters, Joe Dyer and Herbert Findlay of Kansas City.
The last of the large spring parties to be given before Lent occurred last Monday evening when the young men of Sigma Alpha Epsilon gave their first Anniversary Ball. The decorations were unique and beautiful—electric lights and southern smilax being used in abundance. Ices and punch were served throughout the evening and during the intermission a delicious supper was served in the balcony. Many out of town guests among whom were several alumni members added to the pleasure of the evening.
The Betas gave another of their very pleasant and informal parties at their chapter house last Saturday evening.
Last night the girls of the junior class followed the example of the other classes and gave a leap year dance in I. O. O. F. hall. About forty couple were present.
Kappa Alpha Theta entertained Friday evening at the home of the Misses Doubleday. Guests for ten tables spent the evening in playing whist.
The Phi Gams entertained at their home Tuesday evening. Dancing and cards were the evening's diversions.
PHARMICS PASS STATE BOARD
The good work being done by our School of Pharmacy was exemplified by the results of the examination held by the State Board of Pharmacy at Topeka last Wednesday. Nine K.

PHARMACY ALUMNI NOTES
Miss Ina Stilson, '03, is manager of a suburban drug store for the St. Joseph Drug Co. Although it is the smallest one of the company's stores, it has paid the largest profit during the past year, in proportion to the money invested.
Verne Mitchell, '03, traveling salesman for C. D. Smith Drug Co., with headquarters at Salina, is well pleased with his position. Verne says he is getting his share of the drug business in his territory.
J. A. Searcy, '03, has again skipped without giving us thirty days' notice. Two months ago we heard that he was with W.E. Meyer of Atchison, now he is at Independence, Kansas, with whom we do not know.
About thirty per cent of the members have replied to the circular letter sent out January 1 Now we are well aware of just how busy pharmacists are, and doubtless many have forgotten this matter. To those we will say to look out for another circular shortly.
ATHLETICS
Continued from page 1.
At a meeting of the athletic board of the University held Monday it was voted that the board assume control of all athletic teams engaging with teams outside of Lawrence.
This action is simply a preventative on teams going out from the school and being mistaken for 'Varsity teams, and again preventing men from going out on trips, that are behind in their work.
A team composed of members of the law school had arranged a series of games and hence the action of the board requiring all class schedules to be passed on by the board.

ORATORICAL CONTEST AT ST. LOUIS
Protsch THE TAILOR
717 Mass. St. Ground Floor
Many Institutions Will Be Represented at World's Fair City.
The Oratorical Contest of American Colleges and Universities at St. Louis in June will be the greatest affair of its kind ever held in this country. Institutions throughout the country are desirous of having representatives in this contest. The number has so greatly exceeded earlier expectations that it is quite likely that a number of preliminary intercollegiate contests will have to be held in various sections of the country to cut down the number at St. Louis. The Colleges and Universities who are interesting themselves in this movement comprise the best institutions and are situated in all corners of the United States. In the east the University of Maine desires to enter; farther west a number of institutions, among them the State Universities of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Kansas and Colorado, in the south Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi; and farther west Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Washington, California and Oregon. It can be readily seen that the St. Louis contest will be virtually a national college affair.
Some of these seven questions will be assigned to each contestant a few hours before the contest. The World's Fair officials will present the winner at St. Louis with a trophy. The judges will be men who are thoroughly conversant with municipal affairs in this and other countries.
The contest will consist of twelve minute extempore discussions upon one of seven themes under the general topic, "Improvement of City Government in the United States." The subdivisions are: 1. "The Growth and Cosmopolitan Character of American Cities."2. "The Power and Methods of the City Boss."3 "The Application of the Civil Service Merit System to Municipal Affairs."4. "Independent Action in City Politics."5. "Adaptibility of German Municipal Methods to American Cities."6. "The Franchise System vs. Public Ownership."7. "Have Democratic Principles Been a Failure in Municipal Government?"
Interest at K. U. is greater than has been evinced in oratory for several years. Prof. Frazier has a class in Public Speaking and Debate, which is making a study of municipal government and any one who desires to try for the contest may visit this class and take part in the discussions upon municipal subjects. Prof Cone, in addition, is delivering a series of lectures to the class upon municipal affairs, so that a considerable benefit might be obtained by attendance.
PROF. BLACKMAR'S LECTURE
It is desired that every student who can will enter this contest About a dozen have already signified their intention of trying for a place.
...The Mastery of the Desert.'
Prof. Blackmar addressed the Sociological and Economic Conference Thursday afternoon upon "The Mastery of the Desert." Prof. Blackmar told how the tales of the early explorers had for years made people believe that the region west and south of the Missouri river was nothing but a dreary canse of sandy waste. From these traveler tales the people of the East created the myth of the "Great American Desert" and the geographers of the first half of the nineteenth century had likened it to the Atrican Sahara and traced it upon the maps as a vast expanse running across the country from north to south and as far east as the Missouri river. He told of the explorer Long who visited the plains about 1820. To this man the "desert" offered two uses to the country, first a barrier to the passing of the population on west, second that some time it might be a means of defense to a foreign power attacking us from that direction. Prof. Blackmar went on to say that although there was not nor had ever been a "Great American Desert," yet there were patches of country west of the 100th meridian where there was very scant rainfall and little vegetation save the scrubby sage brush The living inhabitants of these tracts were limited to the half-starved coyote, the sage hen and a few snakes and lizards. Land, too, that but for the lack of water might be as fruitful as any in the country.
The reclamation of these districts, the first stage being the visits of the trapper and trader, was the next idea brought out by Prot. Blackmar. The building of government forts, the fights with hostile Indians, the building of railroads and the final settlement by pioneer settlers, all represent some of the trials gone through to develop the arid regions. Even after settlers had made permanent settlement, the wars of the cattle men against the sheep men for water rights and pasture lands formed a chapter in the development. Finally the farmer came and to the development of agriculture we are indebted for the mastery of the desert.
The region once known as the "Great American Desert" comprises 150,100 square miles from which fifteen states and territories have been carved with an aggregate population of nearly 9,000,000 people. In these states the agricultural products amounted in 1900 to $947,000,-000. The products of the "Desert" are taken care of by 50,000 miles of railroad including x vans continental lines. 6,500-000 acres of land in these states
are now under irrigation and when necessary many million more can be utilized. And the final development of this great region is not yet reached. The manufacturing center is rapidly moving west, the railroad center is also coming this way, and the center or all industries is fast moving toward us, all combining to place the center of the national industry of the future within the boundaries of "The Great American Desert."
LECTURE ON CORINTH.
Prof. Richardson Speaks on Recent Excavations.
Professor R. B. Richardson, late Director of the American School at Athens, lectured last night in University Hall upon "American Excavations at Corinth." Probably no American is better acquainted with the subject of Grecian archaeology than Prof. Richardson. He was Director of the American School at Athens for ten years and personally directed the excavations at Corinth for six years beginning in 1896.
"Corinth," said Prof. Richardson, "was twice the largest city of Greece and one of the most important. It was first destroyed by the Romans in the year 146 B.C. and afterwards rebuilt into a great city by Julius Caesar. From the height above the city is one of the finest views in Greece."
Regarding their first year's work in excavation, the professor described the difficulties under which they labored. They had only a total of $2,100 to begin the work on, and it required the labor of more than 100 men to accomplish anything. Laborers were, however, cheap, unskilled
Corinth was the mother of many colonies. Her population found outlet mostly to the west, although she had interests toward the Persian side. Her greatest colony was Syracuse, established in the eighth century.

INTERCOLLEGIATE NEWS.
Last week the University of Nebraska celebrated its thirty-fifth birthday.
The Dramatic Club at the University, of Nebraska have made arrangements to give a Ladies' Minstrel Show sometime during April.
The Dramatic Club at Minnesota will produce "Everyman" in April.
Professor Charles W. Smiley of Harvard is carrying on a unique experiment in psychology. He maintains that a man cannot translate from one language to another correctly if his mind is prepossessed with opinions on the subject. Professor Smiley has taken several Greek students who have never read the Bible and who do not be lie in Christian doctrines, and is securing from them translations of the Bible from the Greek He believes that only in this way can an exact translation be secured, since the former translators have been influenced by their previous knowledge of the contents.
A bill has been offered in the Iowa house of representatives to provide a chair of matrimony for the Iowa university. According to this bill the governor will appoint a Director of Marriage Instruction with a salary of $2,000 per year. In addition $3,000 is to be appropriated for "incidental expenses." The 'Chicago Maroon' suggests that "incidental expenses." probably means "settlements of damage suits arising from instruction in new department and will probably be stretched to include almamy if, after taking a course in marriage, the student finds his affinity incompatible." The probababilities are that if the measure goes through, the millitia will have to be called out to protect the governor from being run over by the aging spinsters flocking to the gubernatorial quarters seeking the appointment of "Director."

THE WEEKLY wants more news. The editorial staff is limited in numbers and all the University happenings do not come directly under their eyes. It will be considered a great favor if every student who knows an item of interest will report it to a member of the staff or leave it at the desk at the check stand. It is the intention of this paper to publish all the interesting things that happen at the University.
For another thing there may be some literary light in school who has been hiding himself under a bushel. This publication is looking for your kind. The Weekly is not making a bid for spring poetry exactly, but it can use some literary copy and would like to have submitted anything in the shape of jokes, verse or stories that would be suitable for a college paper.
THE WEEKLY has never advertised itself as a publication devoted to furthering the interests of matrimony, nor has it ever offered inducements for matrimonial advertisements; but the receipt of a "query" regarding an affair of the heart, has so appealed to its sense of duty that one of the members of the staff has been appointed to take charge of any correspondence of this character and it is the hope of the Weekly that its well meant advice may staunch the wounds of many a shattered heart and soften the bitterness of the unfortunates that may have offered up everything upon the alter of unrequited affection.
MISSOURI University has offered prizes for a new university yell and a university song. Our neighbors evidently think that the "Tiger! Tiger! M. S. U.!" is a "hoodoo." It may be suggested that if Missouri still desires the name of some animal in their cheer, that since establishing the chair of Poultry the word Turkey might supersede the striped "varmint." The change would be especially appropriate for the Kansas City game.
THE WASHBURN REVIEW desines that a fitting reception should be given Baker and Ottawa when they come up to Topeka for the Oraterical contest. If reports from all
past State contests are correct Washburn has always been anything but icy in receiving these sister schools.
PROF. FRAZIER is busily engaged interesting students in the coming oratorical contest. The new departure in the style of the contest should find greater favor than the old style oratory. It really is little wonder that interest in college oratorical contests has decreased to such a great extent in the past ten years. People had begun to grow slightly weary of having the same old themes rehearsed and rehearsed each spring. It seemed to make but little difference what the subject of a man's oration was, he invariably brought in the ancient Greek and Roman before he had reached his third paragraph, and then came the fearful race down to the middle ages, here a slight pause for a panegyric upon medieval chivalry; again with a running start he would carry his audience madly through the remaining centuries to the present, when with perspiring face and wilting linen he would raise his voice and hands in a peroration, which if it did not succeed in impressing the judges as a burst of true eloquence, at least was effectual in awakening any napping auditors and left an open field for his successor.
It matters little how well prepared it may be, a set speech is falling into disfavor. There is too much of the mechanical about it. The speaker is not natural either in enunciation or gesture, and he always gives the impression of being compelled to make certain movements and gestures at particular words and phrases in his discourse.
This growing unpopularity has led to the introduction of the new style of oration, where the speaker does not commit his words to memory, but takes a subject and studies it carefully and then presents a discussion upon it. Many of the leading colleges and universities have adopted this new idea and it seems that the old style oration will soon be relegated to the number of things that have been. In the future, ideas and thought rather than figures of speech and elocutionary ability will be the predominant features of the oratorical contest.
This year marks the beginning in the new style of contest at Kansas University. If the increased interest in oratory this spring is any criterion, the coming contest will be a great success. Every man and woman who can do anything in an oratorical way should enter this contest and see that Kansas has a representative second to none at St. Louis.
KANSAS HAS been held up time after time as the state of freak legislatures. We have been accused of having legislators who couldn't count, others who couldn't tell cots from leather couches and even some that were so color blind that they would occasionally get the state's money mixed up with their own. One time we had a representative who in speaking
of a railroad said "The blasted thing ain't got 'ary termini at nary end" and another introduced a bill making water melon stealing a felony, but thank Heaven, it is left to an Iowa man to want to put a Chair of Matrimony in the State University.
Iowa is possibly not so much to blame; they heard about Chairs of Journalism, Poultry and Stock raising in neighboring universities and the Hawkeye state is nothing if not up-to-date; so casting about for something to make a new chair out of in their state university they happened to think of matrimony. The idea sounded well and would probably prove a great drawing card for the university. Hence the introduction of a bill in the legislature to endow a chair of matrimony.
If the proposition materializes we will likely see the time arrive shortly when each male graduate of Iowa University will be presented with his diploma wrapped in a blue ribbon and in addition the Director of Matrimony will also give him a bride, possibly also trimmed in blue ribbon. Then will the college graduate, indeed, be ready to go forth and battle against an unkind world
The Modern Language Journal Club
At the meeting of the Journal Club of the language departments, Friday of last week, Prof. Walker read a paper on Latin syntax, and Miss Galloo, Mr. Bryant and Mr. Raymond discussed recent contributions to the scholarly magazines. Mr. Muenter discussed the new Germanic Museum at Harvard.
X. Y. Z. DEBATING CLUB.
There was an unusually good attendance at the X. Y. Z. club meeting last Saturday evening, and the meeting was interesting and animated. The program was opened by a parliamentary drill by Elder. An extemperaneous talk was given by Bender. The debate was on the subject Resolved, that the fifteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States has not been justified. The discussion was participated in by Cowdrick and Coleman for the affirmative, and Earlart and Stuessi for the negative. The debate centered about the results of giving the franchise to freedmen at the close of the civil war. The decision of the judges was given in favor of the negative. The literary program was closed by an eight minute speech by Tritt. Mr. Tritt discussed the situation in the far East, and the probable outcome of the Russio-Japanese war. An important business meeting was held at the close of the program.
At nearly every X.Y.Z. meeting this year, visitors have been present. Guests are always welcome at the meetings of the club, and a cordial invitation is extended to all who are interested to make themselves at home in the X.Y.Z. club room on Saturday evenings.

My dear Editor:—
Pardon my candor, but I am desperately in love. In fact I have been ever since she brought me a sandwich during the May-pole scrap of 100—but alas, I am too modest to propose. What would you do if you were I? Answer soon. Very truly,
It is my opinion that love's labors are never lost. If you love the girl as desperately as you say, she must know it (as well as you). Perhaps if you keep her waiting she will appreciate your modesty and in some way rise to the occasion.
Dear Friend and Fellow Student:
I once had a friend who was too modest to 'pop the question.' He had let forty years of his life pass without coming to the point. He was in love with a woman of suitable age, but he would not tell her so, and, though she knew it, she could not very well give him a hint of the situation. She was willing because she had arrived at that time of life when a woman is not nearly so hard to please as she has been at some other time, but he was too bashful and went away without a word. He was gone a long time and when he came back he found her as he had left her,
"I have come back after many years," he said to her as he took her hand in greeting.
She had learned something in these years.
"Well for goodness' sake, Henry,' she exclaimed fervidly, "why don't you take them? I'm now thirty' five. How many years do you want?" Then a great light shone upon him and he waited no longer.
Perhaps you may profit by my friend's experience.-Mat Ed.

The foot ball game with Purdue has been definitely called off. We will probably get Notre Dame in place of Purdue.
SENIOR BASE BALL
The members of the senior baseball team held a meeting Wednesday morning and elected Claire Cowley captain, vice Curtis Trussell, resigned. A great deal of interest is being taken in the senior team this year. Definite notice has gone out from the chancellor's office that the class of '04 will be the last to play the faculty.
The Senior-Faculty game has always been one of the most enjoyable of the year. But its doom has at last been sounded. Our revered Profs. have become weary of eternal defeat. They allege that their self respect caused them to refrain from the game. No longer shall we see the Deans of the various departments arrayed in purple linen, wield the wagon tongue. No longer will the pale faced instructors in Latin and Psychology chase the horsehide spheroid thro' the air. The latter part of May will be the last time in which the Seniors will be able to even up old scores with their instructors. The boys of the '04 class are trying to get together a bunch of players who will be able to put a few finishing touches to this last game which will make it worthy of a place in history beside the famous Greek games of ancient times.
Maurice Sweeney, representing the National Engraving Company of Philadelphia, was in town Friday interviewing the seniors.
Bruce Williams has been confined to his room with an attack of the grippe.

workmen asking as wages only thirty cents per day and skilled laborers receiving forty cents. The little village of the modern Corinth hailed with delight the excavators because of the great amount of money that it would bring into their midst.
"The great object in excavating is to uncover the ancient city," said Prof. Richardson, "although of course we are pleased when we find statues, vases and other works of ancient art." The expedition had a chart of the ancient city with a full description of its principal, buildings and places of interest but until they could uncover one of these for a starting point they had to dig blindly. Numerous trenches were first dug in the hopes of hitting upon some ancient ruin which they would be able to recognize. They were finally rewarded and then the systematic excavation began. The ruins of the ancient city lay below the surface of the ground at a depth of twenty to thirty-five feet.
The results of the excavations have been very gratifying to Prof. Richardson. He showed the progress of the work by lantern views, also the pictures of many valuable pieces of statuary and numerous vases of great archaeological value. The ruins of many beautiful palaces, several great theatres and fountains have been found. Some of the statuary is of great artistic worth but in many cases it is partially mutilated. Two lion heads, the best of the collection, disappeared while they were still at work and Prof. Richardson says that from photographs which he has, they have been identified in an art museum in Boston. More than sixty pieces of pottery have been taken out which Prof. Richardson says is very ancient, belonging to a period 2,000 years B. C.

The class has planned to get the publication out in an artistic and readable manner, relying on class talent to furnish the material.

REPORT OF THE QUILL CLUB.
Miss Hayward's story, "The Spirit of Christmas," had genuine sentiment in it and a sympathetic characterization that is not always found in dialect stories. The dialogue, too, was cleverly managed.
Mr. Livers read a paper entitled "The Church as a Factor in Social Control." The paper showed a careful historical study of the church and the conclusions drawn were thoughtful and suggestive.
Miss Hedger read a short character sketch about "Sam Smith and Jennie" which was interesting and, at the last, very surprising—the listener must have felt that Miss Hedger had succeeded in illustrating, beyond question, an anti-climax.
It was decided to have the meetings, hereafter, at 5 o'clock on Tuesday.
Ackerman evidently intends to show Missouri how to put the shot this year. He put the big weight 39 feet the other day an 11 as only be gun practice.
