THE KANSAN.
OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS.
VOL.I. No.31
OUT OF POLITICS.
Stockholders of Kansan Approve Competitive System.
The stockholders of the Kansan adopted plans for reorganizing the board on a competitive basis Monday, and from this time positions on the board will be entirely independent of political factions.
The major sections of the plans as adopted provide for a board of fifteen members, two of whom shall constitute the business department and thirteen the news department. All places are to be secured only by competition, and two members shall be appointed at the end of each se- ester from those who have been competing for places on the news staff. In March each year, one competitor shall be selected as assistant business manager from those who have been in the competition for places for the past year. Every one in the business competition is allowed ten per cent. of all business he secures.
Two week's non-service of any member of the board loses him his place, and the vacancy shall be filled by a special competition.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FEBRUARY 2, 1905.
The editor-in-chief, the associate editor and the business manager shall retire after one year of service, and their successors shall be elected from the junior members of the board, except in the case of the assistant business manager, who becomes business manager without further appointment.
All the profits of the paper shall be divided among members of the board according to their duties and the length of their service.
The plans contemplate changing the paper to a daily as soon as practicable, and to that end a sinking fund will be set aside for the purchase of a press in conjunction with the Graduate Magazine.
The new members of the board who were appointed Monday from the first term competitors are: W. F. Hovey, F. H. Blackmar, R. L. Douglas, H. P. Green, F. L Guy, and Howard Farnsworth.
WILL MEET MISSOURI AND IOwA.
The debating council decided at their meeting Tuesday noon to accept the terms offered by the University of Iowa.
The subject of the debate is: "Resolved: That the General Interests of the Public Demand the Maintenance of the Open Shop."
This debate will be held here. The same question will be debated with: the University of Missouri at Columbia. Kansas has decided to take the affirmative side in the Missouri contest while the side with Iowa has not yet been chosen.
SOME MEMORIES.
Thirty years ago, September, 1874, the writer entered the University of Kansas as a member of the faculty. Wonderful changes have taken place since that time. Then, the University consisted of two departments, the collegiate and the preparatory. John Fraser, the acting chancellor, and nine other persons constituted the faculty. Of the ten, Chancellor Fraser, D, H. Robinson, Professor of Latin, F. W. Bardwell, Professor of Engineering and Drawing, and Byron C. Smith, Professor of Greek, are deas.
In the early 70's, there was on the faculty a man of foreign birth, named S. W. Y. Schimonsky, a graduate of the Polytechnic School of Berlin, well read in the ancient classics as well as the German, and an engineer of first class ability. He was intense in his hatreds and intense in his friendships. The effort of his life in the University seemed to be to keep in close touch with his students. He had a great liking for them, and they liked him, especially when they were given their grades. He had no low grale students. After final examinations, and Schimonsky had made his report to the office, it was found that the grades below 100 were few and far between, and on the other hand many were they who had received 100, 102, 105, and even 110. The boys were delighted. Asked to explain what he meant by reporting such a record, the professor's reply was that those were his best students, and so good were they that they actually leaned over.
At a reception of the faculty and students, some young men and women were having a fine time with the Professor, whose broken English furnished them an inexhaustible fund of amusement. One young woman, emboldened by the Professor's willingness to be pleasant and agreeable, took it upon herself to ask him how she should pronounce his name. She said that she and others, discouraged in their attempts to pronounce it, would like to know from him the proper method. She could spell it—S e-h i-m o-n s-k-y, but to pronounce it was beyond her ability. With a smile spreading over his wrinkled face, the German professor replied that she would not be far wrong if she should anglicize the name, and say She-monkey.-E Miller in Jan. No., Graduate Magazine
FACULTY TO PLAY HAND BALL.
Some of the faculty members are trying to organize a team from the faculty to play hand ball this Spring. Professors Abbott, Hopkins and Lincoln are among those who are encouraging the plan and they hope to have a team ready for practice before long.
ON TRIP.
SMOOTH BALL BOYS Swing Around Circle The basket ball team accompanied by Manager Plank, left Lawrence Saturday morning for a week's trip through Nebraska and Iowa. The men who composed the team were Bliss, Winnagle, Barlow, W.J. Miller, M. B. Miller, Russell and Captain Adams. There were games scheduled to be played at Lincoln, Omaha, Des Moines, Oscaloosa, Ottumwa and Fairfield and the team expects to return about next Sunday morning
After the trip is over Manager Plank expects to have a series of return games, and also games on the home grounds with other teams, probably Baker and Kansas City Y. M. C. A. Tigers. Most of these games will probably be played on Saturday nights.
On going to press the result of only one game has been heard from, that which was played with the Nebraska Wesleyan. (Methodist) at Lincoln on last Saturday night. In this game K. U. was defeated by a score of 52 to 37 W. J. Miller was the star of the K. U. boys, as he threw eight goals and scored more than all the rest of the team together. The Kansas boys passed the ball better than their opponents but for some reason their aim for the goal was not as accurate.

BARB GIRLS GIVE ANNUAL SPRING PARTY.
DARD GIRLS OIVL ANNUAL SPRING PARTY.
The party given in F. A. A. hall last evening by the Barb girls of the University of Kansas added one more to the list of annual parties which have been given since the holidays. The event was largely attended by college and faculty friends and many features tended to make it one of the most brilliant social events of the season. As the guests entered the ball room they were received by Miss Alma Leidigh, Miss Carlotta Clark, Miss Robb Young, Miss Dana Gatlin and Miss Marguerite Dixon. The grand march was led by Miss Moses and Mr. Ray Barton and the programs were booklets of white decorated with the monograms G. B. in gold. These were given to the gnests by Miss Eugenia Winship and Miss Pearl Sellars.
OMAHA Y. M. G. A. BEATS KANSAS.
In the basket ball game at the auditorium Monday night the Y. M. C. A. boys beat the lads from Kansas by a score of 31 to 24.
From the outset it was a game full of ginger. The Kansans played fast clean ball, but their lack of experience told against them. If the team comes here later on in the season the Young Macks will not find them so easy, for that Sunflower team is on its feet and going some all the while. And then there's a man in it called Miller; he plays center, and he tosses the ball in the basket like pouring water in a hogshead. He knows how almost as well as does Clark of the Young Macks.
At the end of the first half the score stood 14 to 8, and the 1,000 people who remained after the skating was over to see the game shouted almost as vociferously as though they were present at a football game.
In the second half the Sunflower boys came out of it; they shook off their trance and got very much busy. Several free goals from field went to their credit and continual touling on the part of the Young Macks gave them a decided advantage which they lacked in the first half. Bliss and Winnegal featured their blocking ability and for a time it looked as though the Sunflowerets were going to do things. But they couldn't keep up the pace. Nebraska took a spurt and showed the Jayhawkers hadn't won the game yet—not yet.
Truth is, the game was without a crisis. The swift lads from Kansas couldn't find the pocket often enough to do them much good, but they frequently made spectacular plays which won the house.—Omaha Bee.
FOR A SCHOOL OF MINES.
Representative E. B. Schermerhorn of Cherokee county, introduced a bill in the house Tuesday, providing for a school of mines to be operated in conjunction with the State University and to be located at Galena. The bill further provides for a board of three regents who shall have charge of the school, and carries with it an appropriation to maintain the school for two years.
PHARMACISTS ENTERTAIN.
Eighty students attended the Pharmacy party in Everett hall last Friday evening. The Pharmacy students wanted something to make them forget the work of the past term and so decided to dance. The programs were arranged for twenty numbers. Sommer's orchestra of seven pieces furnished the music.
The pharmacy students will give a dance once a month during the spring term and then annual spring party sometime in May.

Wirt G. McCarty at present Editor-in-Chief of the KANSAN is seriously ill at his home in Emporia, so this issue has been gotten out by men more or less new in the newspaper business.
We would like to go against Michigan on the gridiron with the team, or one just as good, that we had last year for instance—just to see how hard we could make them work.
Here is an idea for some aspiring student of the law: Form a law firm to practice before the Deans of the various schools, guarantee to your clients that you can get pardon for any amount of flunkes and secure permission to take any number of studies, from two and one-half to six. It would be a winner, besides a service to humanity.
Professor Miller in his article in the Graduate Magazine for this month says, that in the early days, no University function was complete without a song by Ex-Chancellor Snow. His favorite on these occasions was a melody running:
"Noah he did build an ark,
"Noah he did build an ark,
He made it out of hickory bark;
The animals went in two by two.
The elephant and the kangaroo."
More people have asked for four studies in the college than ever before in the history of the University. The psychological reason for this is a problem. Whether there is an epidemic of desire for mental strenuosity sweeping through the student body, or whether it has been discovered that by making the proper combination four studies can be carried with ease, is not known.
Kansas has only two debates this year and if the right men are gotten into the preliminaries no trouble should be found in winning both of them. Debating is the only University enterprise which does not receive the support it should from both
students and faculty.
A man on the football team feels that the whole University is back of him and will celebrate his victory or mourn his defeat. But in the debating work there is complete apathy, no enthusiasm, no spirit—nothing which would cause a man to in any way exert himself. It is this that has caused our best and strongest debaters to drop out of the work after a one year's trial.
---
If the KANSAN ever is reorganized, if the merit system ever is installed and newspapermaking in the University of Kansas reduced to a science it will not be difficult to find the man to whom honor is due for bringing it about. Professor Hopkins has labored and worked to bring that about with an ardor and enthusiasm shown by few men in any undertaking. This has been done under difficulties too, warring factions in board meetings, apathetic stockholders, and negligent printers have threatened at any time to undo all his work.
SOME THOUGHTS ON EXAM. WEEK.
We would like to be a girl during quiz week. They have such an easy, natural, uninsinuating way of "working a Prof."
There will probably be the usual number go home to help father in his business next term.
We have noticed that the person, who wails, "I know I flunked" the longest and loudest, is probably the only member of the class to draw a one.
Oh! for more of those old-fashioned professors who say, "Well you have worked hard this term, so I guess we won't have any final quiz. Come up Friday and we will talk over the work for next term."
GYMNASIUM SCHEDULE.
Dr. Naismith has decided upon the following hours for the various athletic activities.

This will not only be of great service to the medical students in attendance here but it will also be of great value to Rosedale where it will be located.
The need of our Department of Medicine for several years has been a clinical department where students could get practice and the location of this clinic near Kansas City will certainly give this.
ART EXHIBIT CLOSES.
The Exhibition of Painting in the Museum closed Wednesday and the pictures are ready for shipment. Most of the paintings go to Samuel T. Shaw, proprietor of the Union Avenue Hotel of New York, and the originator and promoter of the tund. The largest of the paintings, the scene during the French Revolution, returns to St. Louis where it will be placed in one of the Art Museums. The Exhibition has attracted a great many visitors to the University since it has been in progress. The students of the University have not taken the interest in paintings that they did last year but this is probably because the holidays came just when the Exhibition opened and the students did not keep it in mind when they returned.
MEETING OF ALUMNI.
A number of the prominent Alumni of the University met in the offices of Charles Gleed in Topeka Tuesday to discuss plans for furthering the interests of the University before the present legislature.
Chancellor Strong and Professor Carinth attended the meeting and explained the plans in mind for the new buildings desired.
There are ten Alumni of the University in the legislature this year. These men with a general friendly feeling toward the University prevailing in every quarter, will undoubtedly land the appropriations desire this year.

In the Tuesday's issue of the Kansas City Star the Lincoln correspondent for that paper discusses the resumption of athletic relations between the two Universities. He says:
NEBRASKA NOT OVER ENTHUSIASTIC.
"The position of the Nebraska authorities has been that the two institutions are logical rivals, both from geography and tradition, but that it was Kansas which severed relations, and very abruptly at that, and that it is now an mexorable policy at Nebraska that the Jayhawkers must first wave the olive branch before Nebraska can ever take notice of the question of resumption.
Sentiment at Nebraska, however, is divided as to the desirability of resuming. Many of the students, and at least a few of the athletic board members, are openly hostile toward the suggestion. They take the position that Kansas acted hastily and without good cause, and that Nebraska, in justice to her own pride, cannot give consideration to the suggestion of getting to gether, at least for several years. It is practically impossible to forecast the action of the Nebraska board in case the Jayhawkers should present the flag of truce, and, therefore, there can be no positive determination until Kansas gives the sign and speaks out her wishes in a formal and authoritative way.
WAS A PROMINENT ALUMNUS.
Harvey M. Bear, a graduate of the University in 1890, a prominent educator af the state, died at Roswell, New Mexico, of paralysis, January 29. Mr. Bear was thirty-five years old. While in the University Mr. Bear was a prominent member of the Beta fraternity and was actively interested in oratory and debating.
After leaving the University, he served as principal of the Paola schools and afterwar. ten years, as superintendent of the Wellington schools. He resigned his position there two years ago to go into the newspaper business in Roswell. Since he became an editor, he has taken a prominent part in New Mexico politics.

More than two hundred students took part in the Post-Exam, Jubilee held in Snow Hall last Friday evening. As the students entered the hall they met the registrar and received an enrollment card. The treasurer then gave a receipt for all smiles received and then the students were enabled to meet the dean.
POST-EXAM. JUBILEE.
Above the window at the dean's office hung the sign, "I can't be worked." The dean gave each student a card having a number and a letter written upon it. The letters received under each number spelled the name of some course. The groups of students having the same number were offered a medal for the best rhyme containing the name of the course which their letters spelled.
The prize was won by the group which composed a rhyme containing the word hygiene.
The following program was rendered; Vocal solo; Miss Livers; Reading. Miss Pickell; Piano Trio; Miss Watson, Miss Parrish, Miss Borsight; Reading, Miss O'Brion.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS.
VOL.I. No.33
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FEBRUARY 4, 1905.
K. U. REPRESENTED.
Many Graduates of Our Law School Hold Important Positions.
The Kansas State Bar Association met in Topeka last Wednesday. The K. U. law school was well represented both by its alumni and by its undergraduates. The election of officers took place immediately after the banquet. The following K. U. men were elected officers of the association for the ensuing year; C. W. Smith, '76, president; L H. Perkins, '80, vice-president.
Each year the members of the Senior class of the Law School hold a contest. The judges are chosen from men outside the University. The best man is chosen to read a paper before the Bar Association. This year James A. Brady won in the contest and his paper before the Association was on "Suicide and the Law." F. H. Wood, a Senior Law, also read a paper on the "Aben Land Law in Kansas." Dean Green said to a KANSAN reporter: "There was a large number of old University men at the Association. Many of them hold good positions. Several are county attorneys for their respective counties, many are probate judges and a number of them are in the legislature."
The following alumni are in the legislature. E. P. Rochester, '00, J. W. Holdren, '98, E. K. Robinette, '97, and C. D. Dale, '00. These last two are from Kansas City, Kansas, W. S. Kretsinger, '98, is secretary of the senate Clyde Alphin,' 02, is reading clerk in the senate George Hayden, '98, is a senator
ORATORY.
A mass meeting of students will be held Monday in Chapel, at 12:15, to discuss the feasibility of trying to secure the final contest of the National Oratorical League in this city. Twelve Universities—Miami University, Ohio, Kentucky, Iowa, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Colorado, Oklahoma, Texas, South Dakota, Montana, Utah, Washington and Kansas State Universities—are at present in this league. Colorado University is anxious to secure the final contest and is willing to offer a good bonus in order to bring it to that state. Kansas is the most centrally located and should have the final contest. The only difficulty in the way at present is the securing of a sufficient guarantee to insure the payment of expenses.
The number of students taking English Literature this term is unusually large, so that an extra morning session has been organized.
Poof, A. S. Olin has begun a new class in his department, known as secondary education in America.
AN ENGLISHMAN'S VIEW OF AMERICA.
Eustace Carey, a member of the Society of Chemical Industry, who recently visited the United States, with that society, writes his impressions of this country in a recent article. It is well to see sometimes what others think of us. He says:
"In fact, I may say here that if there is one thing more than another in which the Americans appear to be interested, it is education. Their Universities are numerous. Their professors are strongly alive to modern requirements and thoroughly up-to-date in their methods—in fact, more than one University is attracting students from Europe and from all parts of the civilized world. I don't mean to affirm that education is all that the American citizen cares for; for it goes without saying that he has a great appreciation of the almighty dollar, but the accumulation of a pile does not satisfy even their millionaires, who love their country, and labor almost night and day to develop its resources, and are keenly alive to educational requirements, and give like princes to educational establishments, in order that the young men and young women may be well equipped for the struggle of life.
This feeling is not only that of the well-to-do, but it is shared by the working people, who are eager to take advantage of any schools within their reach, and they have one immense advantage over the majority of the people in this country—that if poor they are not ashamed to be poor, they are not ashamed to take an opportunity of earning their living and improving their position at occupations which many of our young students would despise. In this connection, I may mention the case of a young man with whom I came in contact at the St. Louis Exposition. He was a Canadian, and during his summer vacation he presided over a cigar stall, selling cigars for a living, with the expectation of putting a little money by to help him in his university career in winter. This kind of thing has been done in Scotland we know, but one does not see many such cases in England.
Chancellor Strong says that the bill which was recently introduced into the Legislature by Representative Schermerhorn, of Cherokee County, which provides for the establishment of a School of Mines at Galena to be a branch of the State University, and appropriates $20,000 to maintain it for two years, is not a University bill and that the University authorities have no interest in it.
NOT A UNIVERSITY BILL.
Subject for Essays to be announced Next Week.
BRYAN PRIZE.
Professors Bartow and Sayre went to Kansas City this morning.
The subject for essays in competition for the Bryan prize will be given out sometime next week. It is probable that the subject will be the question of the "Open Shop." This is the same subject that Kansas debates with Missouri and this will doubtless give interest to the debate, for if a competitor does not make the debating team, he may yet try for the prize.
Hon. W J. Bryan gave $250 in trust to the regents of the University. The interest from this was to be given to the student of the University presenting the best theme on some principle of our government. Last year the amount was not awarded, but held in reserve to be joined with this year's interest in order to make the prize larger. It amounts to something like $30 at present
FRIDAY'S CHAPEL.
5 Cents per copy.
Alfred C. Millican, inter-collegiate secretary of the Prohibition Society spoke in Chapel Friday morning. He said that this country has several problems to deal with, such as corruption of the officials who make and enforce the laws, and also international complications; but that the one which most affects the well being of the country at large and its future progress is not one of society, but an individual question. When the liquor problem is solved many others will take care of themselves.
Kansas, he says, has set an example for other states to follow. She has put her foot down and has furnished a striking example of the way to deal with this question. But the result cannot be brought about in a day, it must be step by step. The people cannot make laws which are not enforced by those who are in power because they are not in sympathy with the movement but the people should elect to those places only officials who will do their duty and see that corruption does not exist.
M. S. U. INVESTIGATION.
A committee from the Missouri legislature has been down to Columbia this week investigating some supposed irregularities in the conduct of the girls dormitory. This dormitory was established in order to cut down the expenses of girls attending the University but it has not accomplished its purpose. The investigation has brought out the fact that board in the dormitory cost about $5.00 a week, which is higher than in some of the private families.
Herbert P. Green, 108, made a business trip to Kansas City Friday evening.
THE PREVENTION OF PAUPERISM AND CRIME.
Prof. F. W. Blackmar lectured on "The Prevention of Pauperism and Crime," to the students in Economics Thursday afternoon. The lecture was in substance practically the same that Professor Blackmar gave before the State Board of Charities in Topeka not long ago.
The professor is strongly in favor of the "Juvenile Court" and the non-jailing theory for youthful offenders. Only in extreme cases should a boy under sixteen years be sent to jail with hardened criminals.
in speaking of pauperism, Professor Blackmar commented on the fact that in ordinary conditions there are ten million people in the United States who are in object poverty. "I am not a socialist or an anarchist," said he, "but it appears to me that this condition is sufficient cause for both socialism and anarchism. Among the things which I would urge as remedies are: forcing industry to pay sufficient wage to buy a comfortable living; and the prevention of the importation of pauper laborers into this country."
KANSAS WINS TWO.
Kansas Defeats Oskaloosa Twice but Loses to Des Moines.
The Kansas University basketball team defeated the Oskaloosa Y. M. C. A. team in two games by scores of 37 to 14 and 56 to 21. The University team had the better team work and excelled especially in passing the ball. These games were played on Wednesday and Thursday evenings.
On Tuesday evening the University team played the Des Moines Y. M. C. A. team but were defeated by a score of 37 to 19. The Des Moines players were rough and our boys are considerably bruised as a result. William Miller the little center is playing an especially fine game for the 'varsity in every game thus far and Milton Miller, his brother has only had six goals made off from him during his trip. The thermometer stood at 25 degrees below zero at Des Moines so the boys are certainly getting a touch of cold weather. Friday night they played the Ottumwa Y. M. C. A. but the result has not yet been learned. The last game of the trip will be played Saturday evening against the Fairfield National guard team and the team will return home on the noon train Sunday.
George Willis, of last year's class, came in from the southern part of the state Friday night. He will begin work in the University Monday and will have the tutorship of our class in Latin.

We saw in a class the other day, forty girls and one man. That is co-education with a vengeance.
The Student, published at Eureka Academy, is exceptional among college periodicals in Kansas. It has only seven varieties of editors—K. C. Star.
It is the intention of the present management of the KANSAN to build up a machine—not a political machine—but a news getting machine and to see that each part of that machine has a work to perform and that it performs it.
There is room for several good men from the Sophomore class on the KANSAN board. At present there is not a single member from that class on the staff A number of the senior members are desirous of stopping work as soon as other places can be filled, so there is abundant opportunity for anyone desiring to secure a place.
A report comes from the library that a number of books have been taken from the shelves in the reading room, and not returned. This is due, we believe, rather to thoughtlessness than to malice. Students do not realize that the absence of even one or two books which have been reserved for the use of a class may cause considerable inconvenience to a number of persons. The amount of money appropriated for the purchase of books is not so large that the loss of comparatively few volumes is not felt. But, in any case, it ought to be a mark of personal pride with every student to help the library in every way that lies in his power, and to refrain from doing anything which may injure it. We have a fine library building, in which everything possible has been done for the comfort and convenience of readers. Let us, then, do everything we can to increase its efficiency.
A post-grad after a visit to the Dean not long ago, was heard to remark, "the audacity of that man—8 o'clock class--think that I am going to get up in the middle of the night to come to a class?"
A satisfactory college paper can never be issued until it is printed on the hill. A down town office does not pay the attention to the printing of the paper that it needs because it is only a small amount of their total business and hence is considered of minor importance. Another and by far the most valid reason for printing it on the hill is the distance of the office from the newsgathering field. The editor never knows when he can read proof nor does the printer know how much copy he will have on hand to set up. By the time a man makes two trips a day from the hill to the 600 block on Massachusetts street, there is little time for class work.
The Graduate Magazine is intending to purchase a larger press and do all their work in Frazer Hall. There is no reason why the management of the KANSAN should not join with them and thus issue the two periodicals from the same office. If this is done the members of the board can go to the news room between classes, read proof, edit copy, and continually look after the progress of the paper.
The following poem was received by the School of Journalism, with the compliments of E. E. Slosson, class of '90, at present editor of the Independent magazine of New York. We are among the first to receive this poem as the copyright was only released Feb 1st.
ON THE PROPOSAL TO ERECT A STATUE TO SHAKE-PEARE IN LONDON.
By Alfred Austin, Poet Laureate of England.
Why should we lodge in marble or in bronze
Spirits more vast than earth, or sea, or sky?
Wiser the silent worshiper who cons Their pages for Wisdom that will never die.
Unthe favorites of the passing hour
Erect a statue and unveil the bust Whereon contemptuous Time will slowly shower
Oblivion's refuse and neglectful du-t.
The Monarchs of the Mind, self-septed Kings,
Need no memento to transmit their name;
Throned on their thoughts and high imaginings,
They are the Lords, not servitors,
of fame.
Raise pedestals to perishable stuff:
Gods for themselves are monument enough.

JAPANESE COURAGE.
Instead of the regular program Friday night, the X. Y. Z, debating society listened to a lecture by Abigan Fairchild of the law school on his military experiences in the Philippines and his service in China with the Allied Armies. He told one story which illustrates very forebibly the courage of the Japanese soldier. The Allied Armies were attacking Tientsin, no heavy siege guns were at hand so it was impossible to blow open the heavy gates of the city. After lying a day and night in the city the Japanese officers asked for volunteers to blow up the gates. These were chosen and at a given signal a little Japanese private with an armful of guncotton dashed across the open space before the walls in the face of a murderous fire, and placing the guncotton in a crevice under the gate, touched a lighted match to it. In an instant gate and soldier were blown to atoms, and the Allies charged through the breach in the wall.

One of the most striking, and probably the most interesting character in the play, is that of an eight year old child, "Jessic," who is known as "The Little Mother." So difficult is this part to interpret and so exhausting are its requirements, that Sullivan, Harris & Woods have been obliged to secure the services of two children phenomenons to interpret it. For the part they have engaged the Misses Gussie Shires and Rahstoff. Each of these charming and delightful young ladeis will appear at alternate performances, and their coming has aroused almost every child in the schools of the city to a high pitch of excitement. As a scenic production "The Fatal Wedding" is a wonder. The production introduces many beautiful scenes, including the famous Grace caurn in New York City, showing an evening wedding in progress, and the Palisades of the Hudson during a terrible snow storm. The wind and snow effects in this scene are masterpieces of stage ingenuity. A strong and competent cast, headed by Mary K. Taylor, Jefferson, Oskaloosa, will serve to make "The Fatal Wedding" a delightful entertainment. Bowersock opera house, Monday, February 6th, '05.

THE CO OMEGA PARTY.
When the year's social pleasures and many happy functions that enter into University life are all summed up at the end of the year, one that will occupy a place on the top row will be the Cin Omega party given Friday night in the Fraternal Aid hall. The party was a success in every particular. Despite the very cold and disagreeable weather regrets were unusually few and far between. With the guests arrived they were greeted at the door of the main hall by Miss Maud Cramer, Miss Frankie Curl, Mrs. A. Mitchell, Miss Pearl Maser, Miss Lou Kinne, Miss Florence Mitchell, and Miss Ruth Barnett.
SHELLEY ... RATES TO SENIORS. One Free For the Annual.
The programs were novel and attractive in their makeup and the first of their kind introduced here. Twenty dances made up the list and Zieler's orchestra of Kansas City measured out the the music, while about 110 couples tripped the light fantastic. Delicious refreshments were served in the large dining hall.
Though the Chi Omega sorority was the last chartered in the University it ranks as one of the best and strongest and is rapidly increasing a most creditable reputation as the giver of social functions.
Among the out-of-town guests were-Misses Pluma Mapes, Sarah Knepp, Dr. H. V. Brockett and Mr.Irwin Idle, of Kansas City; Miss Blance Loomis and Miss Madge Kennedy, Fredonia; Miss Ethel Murphy dnd Miss Elsa Pepper, of Iola; Miss Anna Harrison, of Topeka, and Mr. Clare Kinne, of Blue Mound.

THE KANSAN.
OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS.
VOL. I. No. 34.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FEBRUARY 9, 1905.
FOR CITY UNIVERSITIES.
Professor J. H. Canfield of Columbia Says They Exert More Influence on Modern Life.
Urban Universities were declared to wield more influence in modern life than those situated in small towns by Prof. James H. Canfield, librarian of Columbia University, in an address Wednesday night to the Illinois Alumni Association of Columbia at the University Club.
"This is peculiarly an urban century," said Prof. Canfield. "The urban University, therefore is a manifestation peculiar to the times. It is a natural growth springing up side by side with the crowded mart. The inspiration of education today must be an industrial inspiration and the urban college is best situated to receive it."
The new system of "skyscraper" dormitories recently added to Columbia University was explained at length. The plan, he said, had proved successful.
A Pan-Hellenic Whist League is now being organized at Iowa University. Last year the League conducted a very successful tournament and even a better one is anticipated this year. Games will be played Thursday evening of each week. A handsome trophy cup will be given the winners.
In spite of the large deficiency expected in the coming treasurer's report, it is understood that President Eliot has definitely said that the Harvard tuition fee will not be raised. With the constant increase of income due to recent unincumbered gifts and the added income due to term bills now being paid in advance, it is believed that annual deficits will soon be things of the past.
Large mirrors have been placed in the Harvard crew training tank for the purpose of teaching the candidates, by their own observation, the faults in their rowing form.
A new club has been formed at Illinois for the study of Shakespeare. It will be known as the "Forest of Arden Club," and will hold regular meetings twice a month. There are six charter members.
Couch Warner has organized the Cornell football squad into a gymnasium class and is put them through a stiff course.
A member of the faculty of the University of Michigan has been appointed by the board of regents as the auditor and comptroller of the funds of all student organizations. This measure is to guard against any suspicion of irregularity in the financial management of the clubs. Professor George W.Patterson of the department of electrical engineering was appointed to the position.
The libraries of Yale show an increase of 20,000 volumes over last year, bringing the total to about 390,000 books.
LAWRENGE SUED.
The State School Fund Commission has ordered the Attorney General to bring suit against the city of Lawrence for $100,000, the amount pledged by that city when the University was located there. It seems that some years ago a bill was lobbied through the legislature ordering that when Lawrence had paid interest equal to the principal the principal should not be held against it. So when the interest, which had not been paid amounted to $100,000 Lawrence ceased paying any money whatsoever. This suit is instituted to settle the matter definitely.
K. U. READING CLUB.
Several of the young ladies of University, who are interested in the work of elocution have organized a club to be called the "K. U. Reading Club." They have appointed a committee to draft the Constitution and Bylaws. They intend to invite other young ladies to join later, and will give public entertainments and "Readings, recitations, and farces."
PRAYER SERVICE.
The following officers have been elected;—Pres., Miss Anna Ingleman; Vice Pres., Miss Edith Pinney; Sec., Miss Minnie Owens; Treas., Miss Corbet; Director of the Club, Mr. E. G. Frazier.
There will be a special prayer service at the Y. W. C.A. house Sunday morning, nine to ten. This will be the only public observance of the Day of Prayer for students by the Y. W. C.A. All University women are invited.
For nearly ten years the second Sunday of February, has been observed in this way by all the national and international Christian student movements of the world. These movements now embrace over 1,700 separate Christian student societies with a total membership of 100.000 students and professors.
The nominating committee of Y. W. C. A., submitted the following names to the Association for election February 8.
Y. W. G. A. OFFICERS.
The nomination by this committee virtually amounts to an election of these officers.
Pres., May Pickell; Vice Pres., Ola Bingler; Sec., Inez Kilgore; Treas., Ellen Boyle.
William B. Loughborough, 07 has gone to San Francisco with his parents where he will remain while his father is in the Phillipines.
SENATE ORGANIZED.
The new debating society known as The Athenian Senate met in Blake Hall Saturday morning to perfect its organization.
The constitution adopted provides for compulsory attendance and limits the membership to forty-five. Twenty-two charter members were enrolled.
M. Michaelson was chosen president; Carl Ackerman, vicepresident; N. Sherwood, corresponding secretary; C. O. Pingrey, recording secretary; C. Ise treasurer; J. G. Johnson, critic; and J. Sheedy, assistant critic The first regular program will be given next Saturday morning in Blake Hall.
The object of this new debating society is to give practice in debating and after dinner speaking. The social functions wil consist of several banquets during each year.
PIANO RECITAL.
Dr. Henry G. Hanchett, of New York City, gave the third of a series of four piano recitals in the chapel of Fraser hall Tuesday evening. The program was a musical interpretation of Shakespeare's seven ages of man and consisted of selections from Schumann, Beethoven, Wagner, Chapin and Litz.
The sixth age, "the bean and slippered pantaloon, with his big, manly voice turning again to a childish treble," was rendered by Chopin's "Second Ballad," and Gottschalk's incomparable "Last Hope." The finale, Life's evening, the age of second childhood was beautifully portrayed in Litz's] "Second Rhapsodie."
The recital was one of the most successful of fine arts concerts given this year.
Mr. F. A. Wade, manager of the Opera Company that sings at the Opera House, Feb. 9-10 is an old K. U. boy, and back in the 80ties was one of the leaders in the Athletic sports. Mr. Wade's home can be distinctly seen two miles north of the campus where he was born forty years ago.
The Wednesday afternoon meeting of the Y. W. C. A., which have been held in the chapel for so many years will in the future be in the West German Rooms. The change is necessary by the requirements of the pipe organ students of the Fine Arts school.

In our last issue we stated that Miss Trilla Reed had gone to her home in Kansas City, not to return until next year. She had decided to do this but reconsidered it and will remain throughout the year.
Twenty-six days only until the Dramatic Clubs fourth annual play "All the Comforts of Home." The time will not see nearly so long as it seems.
DR. CANFIELD'S VISIT.
Dr. James H. Canfield, librarian of Columbia University, New York City, formerly a member of the faculty here, visited the University on Monday morning, and spoke for a few minutes in chapel. In beginning his remarks he said "I am not going to give this morning that mark of senility, a group of reminiscences."
His theme was the "Spirit of a University." He said, "I have a friend at Oxford University who wrote me not long ago, 'that Oxford is in many ways dull; the Dons are stupid, and the whole system is out of date, but oh! the spirit that is behind it all.' That spirit, which is in essence the University, the students of Kansas and the people of Kansas possess in a remarkable degree.
Dr. Canfield was for fourteen years a member of the faculty of the University of Kansas. When asked what subjects he taught he replied "Everything from economies to elocution."
"He resigned his position here in '91, to accept the Chancellorship of the University of Nebraska. He left that position in '95 to become Chancellor of Ohio University, where he remained until '99, when he took the position he now holds. His present salary is $1000 dollars a year, with the proviso that after fifteen years of service he can be retired on a pension of $5,000.
On his present trip Dr. Canfield is addressing the various Alumni associations of Columbia. He stopped here while on his way from Denver to Kansas City. From the latter place he goes to St. Louis, Louisville, and Cleveland.
SIXTX-FIVE FAILED IN TWO SUBJECTS.
The total number of students who failed to make the necessary grades in the recent examinations to continue their studies at the University of Kansas was sixty-five. This is less than the average number, in-as-much as the total registration at the University now is 1,483. If a student is not examined at the regular examination periods, it counts against him the same as a failure. When these students are deducted from the total number of "double failures," the number who really "failed" is very small.
The gymnasium was so crowded Tuesday that the track team was unable to obtain good results. The pole vaulters, the hurdlers, the men putting the shot, the squad trying for the high jump, the sprinters and the men running on the mile course were at work at the same time in the middle of the room while four of the faculty were playing hand-ball in a corner.

The KANSAN is in need of financial support just now more than anything else. If you are not a subscriber here is a good cause that you can help along.
There are a few students in the University who go to chapel for chapel talks only. These talks are not from the rostrum though and are not enjoyed by only the two, or possibly three, who do the talking. It is gross discounty to a speaker or presiding officer at any meeting, in chapel or anywhere else, to continually whisper and converse in the audience. This is not directed to the Freshmen alone.
Numerous college papers published special football editions. It seems that special editions are becoming a sort of fad and each college, and high school, is trying to out-do the other with a special edition of the paper. The present editors and business manager threaten to jump in the Kaw if any one ever mentions special edition again.
On the merit system the Freshmen doing work on the KANSAN should be more cordially welcomed into the innermost realms of the KANSAN courts. The Freshmen are the ones who have done the work this year when all others refused and it is the opinion of many of the present board members that the Freshmen should hold the more responsible positions if meritorious work is to be estimated in the new machine.
There is one professor, rather so-called, on the hill who has a horrible reputation for "flunking" students." The KANSAN is thinking of running a cartoon of this one man, but we will have to take some more nerve tonic just now.
The meanest man in the University has been found. He goes down into the girl's lunch rooms and helps himself to the delicious boxes of eatables there. Sometimes his conscious hurts him or he has had a late breakfast for he only takes an orange or a banana or probably a choice piece of pumpkin pie. At other times he has no such qualms because he eats everything in sight and searches the corners for more as he did last Friday when four lunches were devoured entirely. The snow probably gave him an appetite.
If the Athenian Senate does the things which it has set out to do and lives up to the principles it has embodied in its constitution it will do an inestimable good in the University. It should succeed for it has in its membership some of the brainiest men from the College and the Law school. Such an organization has long been needd by law students. They have no literary society, worthy of the name, and although the new organization is not restricted to any school it will draw mostly from the Law school because Law students are more at home in that kind of work than most students.
The KANSAN has been informed that all chaperons in Lawrence who are not dead have gone on a strike. Breathless news for some girls who would not stick their foot in the snow without a chaperon to see that the little girl didn't fall in and never get out.
At Michigan the fad of putting University of Michigan labels on their suit cases and trunks is the latest and most engrossing of all fads at that institution. The Michigan Daily has it figured out about right when it says these labels are good advertisements for a school just as pins and other letters are.
This is the time of the year when the liverymen wear a smile that can be seen for many blocks away.
It is strange how some colleges and high schools have girl's basket ball teams and others have ladie's basketball teams. Judging from one or two exchanges there are some lady veterans of two or three wars in certain schools on the basket ball team
If all gas companies in Kansas charge like the Lawrence Gas Co., we would say tor Heaven's sake bring on the Standard.
Some of the girls in the University advocate a basket ball team that can play and have exhibition games that the men are allowed to attend. The press is not so unjust as to accuse the girls of carelessness in modesty if they play and there are few influential men or women in the state who would criticise the University girls for their healthful indulgence in the great sport. The girls say that other schools over the state have teams and play exhibition games and then ask why it would be worse at the University.
There is a regrettable lack of departmental news that reaches the editor's desk. The KANSAN wants all the news of all departments and there are reporters whose duties include every department in the University. Of course news will be overlooked at times and if any one in any department ever has any news the KANSAN will be glad to get the same and publish it in the next issue. The only request is that the news be "boiled down." Personals are also good at any time in the different schools and The KANSAN will be a happy recipient of all department news.
There is a growing tendency of many in the University to agitate the resumption of friendly athletic relations with the University of Nebraska. This would undoubtedly be a very plausible step on the part of the athletic board and there is little doubt that Nebraska would accept a good and reasonable proposition from Kansas. Nebraska needs large gate receipts like a game with Kansas at Kansas City would undoubtedly mean and from reports eminating from the Lincoln college there should be more consideration of this subject by those having the matter in charge. The most expedient course for the emination of difficulties between Kansas and Nebraska seems to have the two colleges agree upon an abitter who shall settle all difficulties. An arbitration board has also been suggested.
Dr. Canfield was the man who used to stir up the members of the legislature and the politicians generally by his ideas of the tariff question. It used to be declared by each legislature that unless Dr. Canfield resigned or quit promulgating his Free Trade ideas that no appropriations would be forthcoming. In those days a man's politics was of more importance in Kansas, than his religion.

SOME ITEMS ABOUT THE BASKET BALL TRIP.
The total number of points scored by the Basket Ball team on its recent trip North was 217 against 218 for its opponents. They lost five games and won two.
The first five games played were very clean but some roughness entered into the other two. All the boys report that they had a good time even though the thermometer registered thirty degrees below zero at some places.
William Miller was the star of the team in all the games. Although only five feet six, this little center outjumped his opponent in every play except in the first game. At Ottumwa his opponent was six feet five. The crowd laughed when they shook hands at the beginning of the first half, but the laugh was the other way when he jumped above the other man and sent the ball toward K. U's., goal.

ORIGINATOR OF BASKET BALL.
Very few persons realize that we have in our midst the inventor of the now very popular game of basket ball. It was originated only a short time ago and for two years or thereabouts, credit was given by the publishers of the rules to the wrong man, but finally the error was discovered and the popular Doctor Naismith received his dues. It is one of the cleanest games now being played by athletes, and is the only indoor game that seems to meet the requirements of all gymnasiums. Teams formed of good players can tour the country and draw large crowds, while their expenses are light, and as for genuine excitement, there is hardly any game that produces more exhilaration for both players and spectators. Every moment of a game played between two well matched teams produces thrills in the hearts of all present. Truly Doctor Naismith is to be thanked for the good he has done all of us.

"DONALD," a very melodious and effective lyric in the Scotch mode, by W. Rhys-Herbert, has just been published by J. Fischer & Brother, New York. The sentiment of the song is refined, and its music made with harmonic skill and due regard for vocal exigencies. "GOLDEN DAYS." also by Rhys-Herbert, is a song of more robust facture, in the ballad style, and ends with a climax that should never fail of its effect if well delivered. The words are particularly well conceived and have felicitously translated into music.

KANSAS ATHLETIC RULES.
Topeka Conference Adopts Stringent Regulations.
The Kansas College Athletic Conference held its fourth annual meeting in Topeka, Monday, and adopted some important rules for the government of Kansas college athletics. Those present at the conference were: J. N. Wilkinson of the State Normal; J. D. S. Riggs and R. E. P. Cline of Ottawa; Wilson Sterling of Kansas University; C. S. Parmenter of Baker; E. B. McCormic, of the Agricultural college; E. C. Quigley of St. Mary's; H. I. Woods and W. A. Harshburger of Washburn.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FEBRUARY 11, 1905.
The most important of the new rules provides: That no student shall participate in any inter-collegiate contest who shall not have been in residence, and made full credit for a term of not less than ten weeks (not a summer term) previous to the semester in which the contest is held." This rule is aimed at men who attend college solely for the athletic season and it will effectually exclude all of that class of students.
As an amendment to the rule limiting the time a student may work in college athletics the following rule was adopted: "The first three games in which a student plays shall not count as a year's playing, provided he plays in no more games that season." This rule is in substance the same that will be proposed at the Chicago conference of the big nine colleges.
The only other change in the rules of last year was the addition of a clause requiring every candidate for a college team to file with the committee on credentials of his college an affidavit of non-professionalism.
H. A. Scandrett of St. Louis, who was an official in several Kansas games last season, was chosen arbiter for next year. Dr. Carl Williams of Minnesota University, was elected alternate in the case of Mr. Scandrett's inability to act.
All the officers of the conference were re-elected. They are: J.D.S.Riggs,Ottawa,president; W.A.Harschbarger,Washburn, vice president; Wilson Sterling, Kansas University, secretary and treasurer.
GIVILS ORGANIZE.
The civil engineers met last Friday noon and perfected an organization. The following officers were elected: Johnson Strickler, Pres.; Ed. Gelwix, Vice Pres.; R. E. Porter, Sec., and Treasurer. The society will take up the study of mechanical subjects and will try from time to time to secure some prominent civil engineer to address them.
JUNIOR PROM.
The Juniors are busy these days getting ready for the Junior Prom. The Prom is set for May 5 in Fraternal Aid hall This is late but unavoidably so because of the lateness of the Lenten season.
The Juniors see one good feature in this date, it comes so soon after May day that there will probably be little disturbance by underclassmen. The Prom will be the most elaborate social function given in the University this year, because of the number of people that will be entertained. The class of '06 is fortunate in that it gives the first Prom. in the large new hall. This is especially advantageous in the giving of the farce because of the fitness of the stage. The chairman of the Junior Prom. committee is Earl Gafford and the sub-committees are as follows: Decoration—Wrltter Ward, Vene Fry, Helen Alder, Emil Elder, Lawrence Brett, Alden McLaughlin and Alwine Wilhelmi. Invitation,Myrtle Fox, Carlotta Clark, Nellie Potts, Ruth Barnett, Karl Humphrey, Ella Nash, Verne Curl, and Harry Hart, Farce-J. W. Kayser, Maude Olander, Bea Stelter, Florence Shields, Ross Cunnick, Calvin Newman and Margaret Philbrook. Music and Programs—Beth Boright, Harry Davidson, Louis Bohn, Miriam Waters, Kate Hosford and Hein Goldman. Refreshments—Charles Van Fleet, Margaret Dixon, Pearl Maser, Lista Makinson, Maude Van Cleave, Johu Starkie and Astley Purton.
ANOTHER LAW DANCE.
The members of the Law school met Wednesday and decided to give another nance. It will be given in Fraternal Aid hall February 24th, and Sommer's full orchestra will furnish the music. There was considerable discussion regarding the advisability of giving the dance in the large hall. Many advocated the Pythian hall on account of the circumstances under which the dance is given. Other students besides those of the Law department will be admitted.
PROF. CARRUTH ON HISTORY.
Prof. W.H. Carruth lectured Thursday night before the History Conference on the "Nibelungen Lied."
Prof. Carruth defined this great epic poem as the "Liter, ary precipitate of the migrations in Germany" for it has preserved the great events of the wandering of the German tribes.
The poem was written in the twelfth or thirteenth century at a time when history and poetry were not separated. The author is unknown.
The lecture was illustrated by a large number of lantern slides
POLICE COURT REVERSED.
The cases of Will Carson and W. D. DeGeer, the students who were fined in police court for supposed misdemeanors during the foot ball jollification last fall, were tried in District Court this week. The cases came from the city court on an appeal.
In the trial Friday, Carson, who was fined fifty dollars and costs by the police court, was found not guilty of the charge of disturbing the peace. Witnesses for the city failed to identify Carson as the author of the disturbance and the jury reversed the lower court after short consideration.
In the case of W. D. DeGeer, charged with discharging fireworks, which was tried Thursday, the jury confirmed the decision of the police court. Professor W. E. Higgins filed a motion for a new trial this morning and the arguments will probably be heard next week. Professors Green and Higgins who conducted the cases think they have sufficient grounds to secure a new trial, and in case they succeed DeGeer will stand an excellent chance of coming clear the next time. Carson's real name is Hale.
SIGMA XI ADDRESS.
Arrangements have been made with Prof. George Lefevre, the head of the Department of Zoology at the University of Missouri to lecture to the Sigma Xi society at its next meeting, February 16th. The lecture will be on the History of Zoology and be of a popular nature, indicating the importance of the subject with regard to Evolution. The meeting will be open to any one interested.
5 Cents per copy.
Professor Lefever will deliver a lecture on the "Theory of Natural selection and Mutation," on Friday, February 17th which will also be open to the public.
There must be great merit and sterling worth in a play to carry it successfully through ten or more consecutive seasons. Such a play is "Shore Acres," which is underlined for production at the Bowersock opera house, Wednesday, February 15 This charming idyl of American home life was written by the late actor-dramatist, James A.Herne, and first produced by him at Mc.Vicker's Theatre, Chicago, in May 1892, and it still continues to bask in the sunshine of public favor. In its career it has broken many records for long runs, the longest being a season's run at Daly's Theatre, New York. When first seen in the Metropolis it was hailed as an epoch-marking work and its author was spoken of as the American Apostle of Realism and the American Ibsen.
THE ALPHA TAU PARTY.
One of the largest parties given this season in Lawrence was the very pretty party given Friday night in the new Fraternal Aid hall by the Kansas Gamma Mu chapter of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity. About 125 couples were present and more alumni members were back for this party than for any party that has been given this season. The pleasure of the evening was sn a par with the size of the party and when the"I had a mighty good time"was said at the hour of departing it was truly said with a clear conscience. On the reception committee were Miss Irene Gilchrist and Mr. Ray Taylor, Miss Addie Lander and Horton Barthelow, and Miss Helen Johnson and Clyde Hosford, Miss Katherine Hostord and Will Bailey and Miss Lucretia Heart and Hal Lebrecht dispensed with dainty programs which embraced a list of 24 dances including "Alpha Tau Omega" waltz, as number one.
Zeiler's orchestra of Kansas City turnedished the music. A delightful repast was served in the large salon. Among the out of town guests present were: Mr. and Mrs John Tufts, of Washington, D.C.; Bertram Genay of Pennsylvania University, Philadelphia; John Porter Brook, Blue Mound; Chester Jones, Critus Hostord, MissIda Nailand and Miss Carl Parker, Paola: Clay Hamilton, Topeka; Geo. Nutting, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Hall, B.M. Curtis, Linn Sherer, Kansas City, Mo., Miss Nellie Russell, S. Donahue, Kansas City, Kansas; Miss Broulette, Miss Ruth Gibson, Geo. Tromhold, Iola; Miss Madge Boaz, St. Louis, E. E. Smith, Baldwin; Mrs. W. R. Gunn and Miss Gunn, Ft. Scott; and Mrs. Ben Unwerth, Muskogee, Ind. Ter.
NEW BASKET BALL CAPTAIN.
At a meeting of the basket ball team Thursday, J. C. Bliss was elected captain of the team to take the place of I. D. Adamswho has resigned.
There is one excellent reason why any performance of "As You Like it" cannot but be altogether acceptable. The reason is the fact that William Shakespeare, and William Shakespeare in his happiest vein, stands responsible for the play. His wittiest wicheries, his tenderest fancies, the luxuriant exhuberances of pulsing poesy, bestowed upon the inexhaustible cornucopia of his thought and sentiment, have made this comedy of the master Dramatist, brilliant, alive and true beyond the possibility of absolute defilement. Exceptionally fine gems will show their quality, though the be set in crumpled tin.

Last year one local society had one of its own members write up a social function for a Kansas City paper when the reporter wouldn't. The reporter is wondering now if this crowd will do the same thing this year.
In a report in the Kansas City Star Wednesday from Topeka it was stated that the bill for the University appropriations was generally looked upon with favor. This is good news to all 'Varsity students and faculty members because they fully realize the urgent needs of the University.
The arrangements which have just been made for co-operating with Eastern Universities in field work in Geology will give Kansas an added prestige in those institutions. The simple fact of associating with them will bring about an additional respect for our University. The arrangement may eventually be productive of great good to Kansas.
The indoor meet this year in Convention Hall is deserving of unlimited support from the entire University. Last year the meet was successful in every detail and will long be remembered as an event nearly on a par with the Thanksgiving game. The enthusiasm was equally as great and the scenes in the balconies at times reminded one of the stories of ancient Rome in the days of chariot
races. A special excursion will be run this year and a rate of a dollar for the round trip will be given. Kansas never had better prospeets for a winning team on the track and if all of the good men in the University that are capable of making the team come out and practice Missouri will meet another Thanksgiving defeat March 17th.
In writing KANSAN news please use young ladies, young women, and girls discriminately. Don't say ladies when you mean women. Don't use Mr. before the average student's name because it will only be marked out; also don't say city in speaking of a town the size of this.
"It seems that where one college is strong in the government of a school another is weak Washburn has a Dramatic Club that gives theatrical performances, but draws the line on cider at social functions. Baker considers cider harmless but thinks the use of a curtain on the chape rostrum would destroy its sanity"—Baker Orange.
--cause they were not girl secrets. With the summing up of the whole matter there seems to be several mean fellows in the University of Kansas and they all came in through the path from McCook field or by some concealed entrance we are sure. It has been suggested that the KANSAN find out the meanest girl in college and if no more mean men are found a search will be started, although the KANSAN really believes there is not one single mean girl in the entire University.
What part of a young man's life and work in college does him the most good in his career afterward? "A large part of the value of a college education comes from the social intercourse of the students, the reinforcement, the buttressing of character by association," wrote the editor of a great magazine not long ago. Half the speakers who visit our chapel exercise lay great stress on almost the same thing, viewed from the other side—viz: college spirit and college tradition, which are resultant phenomena of student's intercourse one with another. What it all amounts to is this: It is the ability to understand and deal with other people more than the assortment of facts in a man's head that will make him a success in the world.

H. B. Ober buys CONTROLING INTEREST
Herewith extends thanks to all the faculty and students for their past patronage and hopes for a continuance of the same in the future.
Store closed Monday and Tuesday to reopen Wednesday Feb. 15 at 9 a.m.
BE HERE.
There is a demand in the University of Kansas for a good monthly magazine, published by students and featured with student events and student manuscript. Nearly every large college and University in the United States has a monthly 'mag' and oftentimes the "mag" is of more interest and more widely read than the more frequently published newspaper. A magazine here, with some good cuts, several good feature stories each month, some original Kansas University rhyme, and verse bearing the name of poetry, with discreet editorials, would undoubtedly be a success It would, of course, be all dependent upon those in charge and the failure or success would entirely rest upon their efforts and abilities. A clever monthly publication here can be an awakening in the University journalistic world and there is much credit awaiting the men or women who start and successfully conduct the same.
It is a question with the fraternity men that weighs heavily apparently, on some Greek letter organizations whether or not they shall take up debating for the Ewing Herbert cup. About four fraternities want the debates, about three don't want them, and one is inclined to be a little indifferent. There are two sides to the question. If fraternity men want to help a good cause along, and one that every student and professor knows will easily stand helping, they should push the contest for the silver cup. On the other hand fraternities are called upon most frequently to help out in every cause, especially when financial distress is threatened, and some prominent Greek letter men argue that their societies now have all they wish to bear in the way of responsibilities pertaining to the University. In the face of all arguments it would doubtless be a good thing for every fraternity man and a good thing for the University. It wouldn't be a bad idea either to show some appreciation of Mr. Herbert's generosity.
Since the KANSAN found the meanest man in school several others have loomed up on the horizon of baseness and meanness, and according to the numerous allegations there are several who are the "meanest." One student says that the fellow who "emits saliva and allows the same to alight on the floor" is worse than mean. One professor says the same thing. Another complains that the fellow who trips the girls on the hill this snowy weather is the meanest. Ten students in a body came into the KANSAN office with their hands covered with stain and their brows with sweat, and with hands raised in supplication earnestly begged that the editor try and be convinced that they knew the meanest man in the entire University. Some alleged that they knew the meanest man in school but they told the editors in a personal way and "we" promised not to publish the allegations because they were not girl secrets. With the summing up of the whole matter there seems to be several mean fellows in the University of Kansas and they all came in through the path from McCook field or by some concealed entrance we are sure. It has been suggested that the KANSAN find out the meanest girl in college and if no more mean men are found a search will be started, although the KANSAN really believes there is not one single mean girl in the entire University.

SHERLOCK HOLMES AGAIN.
A New Series of Detective Stories in the Kansas City Star.
Conan Doyle's detective stories with the marvelous Sherlock Holmes as their hero, have achieved the greatest success of recent years. Appreciating this act, the publisher of Collier's Weekly, New York, induced Mr. Doyle to write a final series of the great detective's adventures. Repeated refusals were followed by increased inducements, and mally Mr. Doyle agreed to write nineteen stories for $45,000, or about 60 cents a word. The entire correspondence was by cable. The amount paid by Collier's is the largest ever paid for such work and does not include the right to publish the stories in book form. By special arrangement with Collier's, these famous stories are being printed in The Kansas City Star, one story each week, beginning, in the daily edition, Saturday, February 11, and in the Weekly, Wednesday, February 11. None of the present popular features of The Star will be cut down or omitted to make room for this remarkable set of stories. Practically the contents of a $1.50 book will be added to thecontents of The Star, in three months, without any increase of the subscription price, 10 cents a week for The Daily Star morning, evening and Sunday, 13 complete papers a week), and 25 cents a year for The Weekly Star.

THE KANSAN.
OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS.
VOL. I. No. 36.
SERIOUS COASTING ACGIDENT.
Bobsled Collides With Coal Wagon and Serious Injuries Result.
Three members of the Quivera Club of 1345 Vermont street, were seriously injured while coasting on Adams street Saturday evening. They are Miss Laura Marvin of Fort Scott, arm broken; H. P. Green, a freshman engineer, from Kansas City, and a member of the KANSAN board, arm broken; Fred Coston, sophomore engineer, knee shattered.
The party, eleven in number, went out for an hour's coasting after supper, but on the first trip collided with a coal wagon at Tennessee and Adams streets. Arthur Hixon, who was guiding the "bob," saw the wagon but supposed that the driver would clear the road. In making the turn to avoid the team which kept straight ahead, the sled was overturned and the members of the party near the back of it were thrown against the wagon. Several were bruised and scratched besides the three who were more seriously hurt.
Of the three, Miss Marvin escaped with least injuries. She was able to be up the next day, and went home Monday with her father who came as soon as he heard of the accident. She will return to the University as soon as she recovers from the injury.
Green sustained a compound fracture of the arm, and it will be sometime before he is able to be out.
Coston will be confined much longer than the others owing to the nature of his injury. The patella was broken into several pieces, and it was found necessary to open the knee Monday and stitch the pieces together. Doctors Jones and Naismith performed the operation. Physicians think he will suffer no permanent affliction from the injury, but it will be several weeks at best before Coston can even leave his room.
SNOW DEBATERS CHOSEN.
Snow Literary chose its representatives to the debating squad Saturday night. They are : Messrs. Earhart, Ramsey, Douglas, Kenny, Stockwell, and Rhineley. Snow society has devoted an unusual amount of time to debating work this year and the squad is in good shape for the preliminaries which are to be held soon.
Our definition of a brute in human form would be a driver of a wagon who, after a collision with a bob-sled, when people were lying maimed and wounded, never stopped or even turned his head to see the havoc that had been wrought.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FEBRUARY 16, 1905.
CHEMICAL RESEARCH CLUB.
The instructors of the department of chemistry are considering the organization of a club for the encouragement of original research. Membership will be limited to those engaged in chemical research work, and the club will be cooperative, each member rendering assistance to the others by reports of work accomplished and by suggestions and criticisms on the work of others.
The work which has been done heretofore by Professors Bailey, Franklin and Bartow, and that which is being demanded by the public from this department at the present time has made necessary some systematic organization of this kind.
Perhaps no department of the University has so much to do with the practical problems of the commercial business outside of the University as does the chemical department. There are now eight or ten instructors and advanced students engaged in research. The problems they have to solve at present are those concerning oil, gas, water supply and sanitation. In this work they are constantly examining mineral substances from all parts of the state and are thus helping to develop our material resources.
The annual party given by Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity Tuesday evening in Fraternal Aid Hall celebrated the anniversary of the granting of the Kansas charter, and was an unusually pleasant occasion. Red shades on the chandeliers, and smilax made it one of the prettiest annual parties giveu for some time.
THE SIG ALPH PARTY.
The guests were received by Merrell Lindsey, Earl Gafford, Richardson F. Filkin, Miss Kittie Plumb, Miss Alice Rankin, Miss Olga Newton and Miss Ruth Barnett. The grand March was led by George Belt and Alice Sinclair, and the programs were given out by Adele Marks, Harry Busch, Anna Hawk and Bert Satterlee.
Out of town guests were: Misses Helen Lindsev, Anna Harrison, Calla Cattelle, Maude Bates, Messrs, Curry and Donaldson of Topeka; Misses Mabel Senhausen, Blanche O'Neil, Messrs. Brewster, Cranston and Earle, Leavenworth; Miss Kittie Plumb, Emporia; Leonard White, Delphos; Miss Madge Boaz, St. Louis; Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Bowman, Misses Marion Gage, Vesta Lackey, Hazel Campbell and Gertrude Satterlee, Elmer Sanford, Roscoe Chambers. George Mossbacher, Leo Crabbs, Raymond Riffee, Roy Pierce, Ed O'Neil, Dave Eider, S. Busch, Marvin Creager, and Clay Anderson of Kansas City, Missouri.
The Betas will entertain informally at their chapter house next Friday evening.
GO-OPERATIVE FIELD WORK.
A Large and Important System of College Work.
Arrangements have just been completed whereby the University of Kansas joins a number of eastern Universities in offering a summer course in field geology. For a number of years Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Johns Hopkins, Chicago and other eastern Universities have been giving summer courses in field geology and have had an arrangement by which they mutually agreed to give credit for such summer work should students choose to go from one University to another.
A number of the Universities have joined the list for giving credit and also the list of Universities giving summer field work has greatly increased. The University of Kansas has conducted a course in summer field work in geology for ten years, and this year has made arrangements by which its name will appear in the "Joint Announcement" of summer work. The Universities now giving summer work are: John Hopkins University, Harvard University, Yale University, Columbia University, University of Chicago, Ohio State University, University of North Carolina, Syracuse University, Western Reserve University, Leland Stanford Junior University, and University of Kansas. In all eighteen Universities, including the list given above agree to give credit for summer field work in geology done at any of these Universities above named.

Coasting down Adams street is dangerous at any time and parties at night should not start down the hill unless a sentinel is stationed at all cross-roads. The accident of last Saturday is a very lamentable one and the young people who were injured have the sympathies of the entire University. However this should be a lesson to others.
It is suggested that all who have notices to post on the bulletin board should add some picture. One would then not have to go to the art exhibits to pass the time, and a larger number of students would read what is posted. The Y. W. C. A., hss set a good example in this way, and Miss May Williams is to be congratulated on her originality.
If a KANSAN reporter ever hands in anything like this he will forever have his "stuff" thrown in the waste basket without being even read; and we will present him with a sack of nuts. "His wittiest witcheries, his tenderest fancies, the luxuriant exhuberances of pulsing poesy, bestowed upon the inexhaustable cornucopia of his thought and sentiment have made this comedy of the master dramatist, brilliant, alive and true beyond the possibility of absolute defilement."
Last Saturday was the happiest day in the life of the KANSAN, not only for the editors and business managers, but for those interested in the paper. On that day the KANSAN became entitled to print at the head of its editorial column "Entered as second class mail matter." All of these glad tidings resulted more from the kindness of Congressman J. D. Bowersock in using his influence on our behalf in Washington than from the combined results of all others,
Here in the University the word professor is unpardonably abused. Don't call a man professor unless you are sure he is entitled to have "Prof," prefixed to his name. There are only twenty-nine members of the entire faculty to whom is due the title so coveted by the average pedagogue, so please be careful, especially in writing KANSAN copy. The average instructor here and assistant professor much prefers the title Mr.
It has now been proven that the police judge of Lawrence is not absolutely correct in all of his rulings when he finds University students guilty. The remark was made recently that a University student was never found to be not guilty under the present local municipal administration. There is little doubt in the minds of all students, most faculty members and many leading business men of Lawrence, that students have been persecuted in an unpardonable way and have been found guilty of charges at times that they were absolutely innocent of. However there are two sides to every question. The police judge doubttess believes he has been executing his duties in the most scrupulous manner and exactly according to law. The thing to do hereafter is to be careful when a breach of town ordinances is imminent and when breaches do occur take the case to the district court if some special

Here is a clipping from the Kansas City Star regarding Mr. W.Y.Morgan, a Kansas University alumni, member of the present legislature, editor of the Hutchinson News, ex-state printer, and one of the best known men in Kansas today. He is also a member of the local chapter of Phi Gamma Delta.
Leading Clothiers
"Billy Morgan of the Hutchinson News conceives it to be his duty, as a Representative in the Kansas Legislature, "to be neither nice nor lady-like" in the fight against the Standard Oil Company. Now let John D. Rocketeller and his minions, with all their reliance on the help of the Lord, beware. Let them tremble in their financial and spiritual strongholds. Let them be assured that the days of their power are numbered. Let Henry H. Rogers abandon the miserable and flimsy defense that he is a model of benignity in his own household. Let John D. Rockfeller, jr., disband his Bible class and yield himself, for the short period which remains to him, to the allurements of Monte Carlo and the temptations in other European citadels of sin which lure the righteous from the path of virtue and godliness. Let the faculty of the University of Chicago join with the "widows of Ashur" in their wail over their broken idol.
For be it assured, that when a man as "smooth" as Billy Morgan; when a statesman of his consummate diplomacy; when one so gentle and so tactful as an editor who was able to live in Emporia for a number years, and publish a paper there, without being drawn into the seething and perennial Town Row; when a politician, who can steer his placid course between the Ring and the Boss Busters, and can be on terms of perfect amity with the Burton bunch and the Leland crowd—when,a man with such a character and such a record resolves and swears by the long-horn spoon "to be neither nice nor lady-like" in dealing with the evil of Rocketellerism, the knell of doom has practically sounded in the ears of the Standard Oil buccaneers."

"REUBEN: HIS BOOK."
No Missouri book has ever sold like "Reuben: His Book." Five hundred copies were sold the first week and the edition promises soon to be exhausted. "Reuben," who is Morton H. Pemberton, was once a student of Missouri University, and while editor of the M. S. U., Independent, wrote the famous letters from Rueben to Rueben's Pa, and from Rueben's Pa to Rueben. "Rueben: His Book" is the richest thing on University life that we have seen in print. Reuben goes from Plow Shoe Days to Patent Leather Stage and takes all of the degrees in between. Rueben's advice to new students is worth the price of one month's board, and Reuben on Fraternities is simply ice cream and cake. But "Reuben: His Book" is not all about University life. Reuben goes 10 Europe, and see the sights. His famous "Rueben in Rome" lecture is in the book, also his "Reuben in Deutschland." The book closes with "Reuben at the "World's Fair" which Robertus Love says is the most original Fair article that has been published. "Reuben: His Book" can not be imagined or described. It has to be read. This book was published by the author and a copy can only be obtained by addressing Rueben, Centralia, Mo. The price is one dollar.

U. Democrat to Speak at Big Feast.
The Democrats of the University have selected John A. Johnson, a senior law student and a University debater of wide reputation to speak at the annual Democratic love feast to be given in Topeka on Washington's birthday. This is the great Democratic gathering of the year, and William J. Bryan will be present and speak. Johnson's subject will be: "The Young Democracy," and to speak with Mr. Bryan is an honor that very few young men in Kansas have ever had. This is considered not only an opportunity for Mr. Johnson to do himself an immeasurable amount of good but will add much credit to the University as a place for training speakers. A large number of University Democrats will attend to banquet and they say only white men will be there.

"The Heart of Chicago" comes to the Bowersock Opera House Friday, February 17. Aside from the scenic effects, showing the streets of Chicago in the stirring time of the great fire which laid waste to the Garden City in 1871, the roof of the Masonic Temple, and the great engine scene, is a tale of real melodramatic value which deals with a rogue who robs the business house with which he is connected. His downfall comes through the champions of a young woman whom he is pursuing, aided by a former partner in the firm who is now ruined. Considerable humor is wrung out of the story and variety is giveu the production by clever vaudeville turns, which relieves one from the seriousness of the deep, well laid plot.

The members of the faculty of the University of Kansas are filling many lecture appointments this winter. Professor Olin Templin, dean of the College, lectured at Arkansas City last Friday, and Professor A. S. Olin lectured at Burlingame. This week Professor C. G. Dunlap will lecture at Olathe and Kansas City, Kansas. Other members of the faculty have dates to be filed soon.
Dr. Henry G. Hanchett, of New York City, gave the third of a series of piano recitals at the University of Kansas last week. The program was a musical interpretation of Shakespeare's seven ages of mum and consisted of selections from Schumann, Beethoven, Wagner, Chopin and Liszt.
Professor W. H. Carruth, vice president of the college faculty of the University of Kansas, will deliver an address before the Kansas State Temperance Union, which meets in Topeka. February 15-16. His subject will be, "The Anti-Canteen Law, Its success as a Reform Measure it the Army."
For the encouragement of advanced study and research, the University of Kansas offers nine teaching fellowships, each entitleing the holder to $215, to graduates of the University and instructors and graduates of other Colleges and Universities of good standing. Holders or such fellowships are obliged to teach not more than seven hours a week in the respective departments in which they are chosen. These departments are German, Mathematics, Education, Sociology, Romance, Languages, English, Chemistry, American and European History. Baker University, Park College and McPherson College are represented this year among the fellows. Applications for these fellowships must be filed on blanks, provided by the University for the same, with the Chancellor of the University on or before May 15.
THE FIRST K. U. PAPER.
"So you are going to expand and improve the Kansan, are you?" This question was asked a Kansan reporter the other day by a member of the faculty, who was a student in the University when the first weekly was started. "We hear a great deal about bettering the paper, but I don't think any harder or more conscientious work has ever been done than the early supporters of the paper did."
The first issue came out in the academic year of 1876. '77 and such men as C. S Gleed, now a director of the Santa Fe, A.C. Scott, president of the Oklahoma Agricultural college and G.W Hapgood, all members of the class of '77 were at the head of the movement.
One Friday chapel was devoted to boosting the embryonic paper, and speeches were made by Chancellor Marvin and a number of the students. That was in the day of compulsory chapel attendance on Fridays, each student having a seat assigned to him. The members of the faculty divided the chapel into sections and thus made a personal canvass of the whole student body, soliciting subscriptions for the weekly. So the paper was started and it was run pretty successfully for seven years, when it was consolidated with the "University Courier," which had been launched in the meantime by R. W. E. Twitchell; and this union of papers and change of names has been repeated many times since.
"It has been my experience,"said the professor, in concluding the story, "that the quality of the paper depends wholly on the men at the head of it, and not upon the spirit of the general student body at all."

THE KANSAN.
OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS.
VOL.I No.37
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FEBRUARY 18, 1905.
BASE BALL GOSSIP.
Six Old Players Trying for Positions and Many New Ones.
Twenty base ball men are working every day in the gymnasium.
Lang, a new man is showing up well. For some time it has seemed that a short stop has been badly needed, but William Pailey, known in the diamond as 'Spike' Bailey laid aside his law books an hour each day and now K U. has a short stop that can 'spike' hot liners and grounders to the satisfaction of the grandstand.
First base is open for competition, but Ben Young looks like the man for that place. Wilson who played second, last year so well is the only man trying for that place. Johnson who played third last year and did good work behind the bat is ready for the first game at his old place on third.
The first day that McCook field is dry and the weather is warm will find the largest number of men in the history of the University trying for the base ball team.
Six players out of last year's nine are in the diamond. Harry Relihan is working hard to rival Morgan in the pitcher's box and is making excellent headway, Royer, captain is the man with the big mit.
Four games will be played with Missouri, two with Washburn, two with the State Normal, and two with Ottawa, two with Baker and probably two with Colorado. Other games with Colorado clubs may be played if the team goes west.
Sexton will play left field and Woodford probably center. Right field is open for competition.
Prof. Hubach has taken charge of the Normal class in music and has organized in connection with it a glee club of girls from the Fine Arts school. The first half hour is spent in lessons in ear training and the last half hour is spent in practicing songs. The members are: Margaret Hammond, Grace Moses, Elsie Watson, Henrietta Gebhart, Anna Sweeny, Alice Taylor, Rosa Fredrickson, Alice Taylor, Mabel McKoin, Bessie Livers and Mary Parks. A public appearance is being planned.
GIRLS' GLEE CLUB.
The Freshman-Junior party will be given March 10 in the Fraternal Aid Hall. No boys will be admitted unless they belong to the Freshman or Junior class. Girls from any of the classes will be admitted.
FRESHMAN-JUNIOR PARTY.
5 Cents per copy
The tickets, which will be $1.00 should be gotten as soon as possible.
ANOTHER COASTING ACCIDENT.
Three People Hurt Friday Night on Lee Street.
PHI BETA KAPPA ELECT.
Friday night to the most serious coasting accident that has happened this year occured near Lee and Kentucky streets when Earle Sleeth, of Lyndon, Paul Mosher and Paul Corey, with half a dozen other students were overturned while coasting and the first three were injured. Sleeth's wrist was sprained and he will probably have to carry it in a sling for several weeks. Mosher's head was badly cut. Corey's injuries were slight.
Nineteen members of the class of 05 were elected to the honorary Phi Beta Kappa fraternity at the semi-annual election Wednesday. By a curious coincidence the number is the same as the first team election last year. Probably several others will be admitted to the fraternity in June. Those who were honored Wednesday are: Lois Ardrey, Bonnie Bell, Constance Carruth, Claud Deming, Fanny Duerson, Fred Faragher, Jennie Fones, Lulu Gardner, Irene Gil christ, May Williams, Kate Hansen, Victor Iles, Laura Kreamer, Mildred Newman Eva Olin, Emma Palmer, Trilla Reed, Margaret Thompson and Ray Hoskins.
Columbia University students have begun to show objection to "Strongheart," a play in which Robert Edeson is now appearing in New York. The play pictures the Columbia men in a false light, they say. One scene represents a football game between Columbia University and another team. Thorne, a character in the play, is represented as deliberately "throwing" the game. He betrays Columbia signals, misses his tackles, and allows plays to go through his position at tackle. It is against these incidents and to the name "Thorne" that Columbia men make their protest.
Cornell University has purchased a tract of land adjoining Eddy pond just east of the campus in Cascadilla Gorge. The land is occupied by an outdoor running trask. The Alumni News proposes, by taking advantage of the natural configuration of the surrounding hills, to make a permanent stadium for athletic games and commencement exercises. It is not improbable that this suggestion will be carried out in connection with the work on the new athletic field.
Michigan's track athletes will have an additional incentive to work this year, for through the generosity of the Pittsburg Alumni association every man who breaks a record in the Varsity outdoor meet, the dual meet with Chicago or the conference meet will receive a medal.
WORK OF DEBATERS.
Squads Organized and Preliminaries are Scheduled.
The debating squads of the literary societies are at work preparing for the preliminary contests which will be held in a few days. Five societies are represented this year—X.Y.Z., Snow, Burke, Kent and Cooley and in nearly every case the squads have the full quota of six men.
THE INDOOR MEET.
The squads will be divided into three sections each of which will debate once before each of the faculty members of the debating council—Professors Burdick, Frazier and Sisson, making three trials in all. The first preliminary will be held either Tuesday or Thursday and the others as soon as soon as possible.
Plans are complete for the indoor track meet with Missouri in the Kansas City Convention hall, March 17, and prospects are that the meet will be one of the most successful athletic events in the history of the two Universities. For a long time Missouri has retrieved lost honors of the gridiron by winning laurels in field contests, and this year the Jayhawkers are going to try to keep up the football record and make a Thanksgiving victory of the track event if possible.
Every day men are working out and many of the aspirants that started several months ago show remarkable improvement. It would be a hard matter to pick out those who are making the greatest progress because there are several whose work should be emphasized with a superlative.
Missouri on the other hand expects to win and will go to Kansas City with unlimited confidence, backed by a strong team.
In talking today, Captain Bailey said to a Kansan reporter,"We have, I believe, a better team than we have had for years and I see no reason why we should not defeat the Tigers at Kansas City. There is more good track material here this year than I ever saw before in the University. There are also some good men that won't come out. However, these are few and if the men now coming out do the proper work Kansas should make a clean sweep of victories for 1905.
The Sophomore class gave a party in Fraternal Aid hall last Friday. Fourteen dollars were cleared.
The second cut of the baseball squad of the University of Illinois was made a few days ago and fifty-six candidates were retained. The squad is in charge of Jake Stahl, manager of the Washington American league team.
MICHIGAN IS FAVORABLE.
Manager Baird of Yost's Pupils Says if Possible.
Word has been received by Manager Plank from Manager Baird, of the University of Michigan team, stating that Michigan was inclined to favorably consider a date wich Kansas for next fall's football schedule. The game will be played in Ann Arbor if arranged.
Kansas will probably give Michigan any date that Yost's followers wish, and the game looks more certain now than any "big nine" game has looked for years.
Manager Baird is the man who arranged the games in '92 and '93, between Michigan and Kansas, at Kansas City, and he has promised his support in the matter. The price that Kansas asks is deemed reasonable by Michigan. The letter said, "the only possible obstruction is the question of an exact date."
Wisconsin has also sent favorable communication and it is probable that a game will be scheduled between Kansas and the University of that state.
ATHLETIC BOARD MEETING.
Other games will probably be with Texas, Colorado, Oklahoma, Missouri, and several Kansas colleges.
At a meeting of the athletic board Friday the most important matter that came up was the sanctioning of dates for track meets with Colorado University, outdoor meet with Missouri and a meet with the Rolla, Missouri school of mines. The first two dates will be May 6 and May 20 respectively. The other date has not been arranged.
Kansas will go to Boulder Colorado Universitie's camp and to Columbia and Rolla. The board also gave Manager Plank authority to make contracts on behalf of the athletic board for the Kansas City indoor meet.
Frank Cortelyon, 08 engineer, who was called to his home at Muscotah on account of the death of his mother has returned to the University.
New interest is being taken in the University Quill club. The alumni members have been asked to contribute articles from time to time and many bright and interesting ones have already been received. Membership in the club is by election and the candidates are all made by the recommendation of an instructor in English. At a recent meeting thirteen freshmen were elected to membership.
The German club will give a party in Pythian hall, Feb. 24. Miss Grace Whitee, of Wellington, is visiting at the German club. She will leave tomorrow for Deming, New Mexico.

If some people who are fond of criticising the work and efforts of others had the same work and half the responsibilities they would go and jump in the Kaw.
Have you heard the report regarding the faculty committee which it is alleged was chosen to inquire into the reason for so many failures under a certain instructor.
There is one man who holds a responsible office in this institution that is so "sour" and sulky and answers so ungentlemanly at times that there is talk of a petition to have him removed.
Rumors of investigating committees seem to be filling the air. There is one now to be formed, so debaters allege, to reveal the true facts of the case and flud the reasons why Nebraska discontinued debating relations with Kansas.
The KANSAN will begin next Sunday and run a "Lion's Mouth" column on Sundays. It will be devoted to "kicks" and all criticisms, and if you have any to make hand them to the editor-in-chief or mail them No one will know the writer.
You can usually tell when one school is jealous of another. It is especially evident in some college papers. This is true of one or two KANSAN exchanges that bear the "ear marks" on all sides of "Jealously for the University of Kansas."
The KANSAN has so far been unable to find the meanest girl in the University. One is promised for next Sunday. Prospects are that there is only one at all mean, therefore she must be the meanest. However it is probable that some will be found in a very short time. The meanest man in the University it seems is the one that knows so little about railroad passes and a few other varieties.
The man who wrote the poem
About the white and driven snow
Never had to cross Tennessee
With the mercury ten below.
Much credit is due the University professors who so ably defended the students in the recent trial. Credit for an unlimited amount of hard work is especially due Prof. Higgins who worked unceasingly days and parts of many nights preparing evidence and shaping his case so as to clear the three students, not because there was a sum of money as a reward but Prof. Higgins is an old Kansas student himself and is well aware of the trials and persecutions that the average classman of this institution has to undergo.
The new Topka Conference rules are all most satisfactory to the University, with the single exception that they were not made stringent enough. Kansas will play under more strict rules anyhow than any other college team in the state and today there is less doubt about the absolute purity of the University's athletics than about the purity of athletics of any college in Kansas that even aspires to be in the University's class. The Chicago Conference rules will be lived up to here and even a color of professionalism will not be tolerated. This is, and has been, for several years, the verdict of those in charge.
UNIVERSITY ALUMNUS RISING.
J. L. Herrington, of the class of '05, who has been managing engineer for Hunt and Co. in New York city for the past four years has accepted a position as chief engineer of the Montreal Locomotive and Machine Co. of Montreal, Canada. Mr. Herrington has been connected with important engineering concerns in Kansas City, Pittsburg, Pa., and New York since his graduation from the University.

There is a phellow in our phold,
Of quite phenomenal phane.
His shootball pheats are often told—
And Reefer is his name.
And when "they" think they have us beat,
Their phate is really psealed.
He never breaks his training Nor phailis in any way,
Nor phails in any way,
To withhold the pleasure of Kernu
To "phix" the phoes of Kansas. He wears a well earned K.
And when his course is phinished
His pheats we'll ne'er phorget,
We can't express our gratitude,
can express our gratitude,
Nor cancel all our debt.
And now they've made him captain
I tell you what's a phace!
In a phew short years, we'll surely wish
We had our quarter back.

U. SOLDIER PROMOTED.
Lieutenant Adna Clark of the class of 1900, who is now stationed at Ft. Flager, Washington, has been ordered to report to the government training station in Virginia to take a course in artillery tactics. The order has the effect of a promotion.
Lieutenant Clark intends to do some work in the summer school as a preparation for the course. He enlisted in the Kansas volunteers just before graduation and served for some time in the Philippines.
A DELIGHTFUL COMEDY.
Frank Bacon has struck the key note for all lovers of amusement. Last year he started out with his play, "The Hills of California," while he did not make a great deal of money he made a reputation for himself and play that is causing him to fill the theatres everywhere he goes. It will be difficult to point to a more successful play than "The Hills of California." The reason for this is simple: Mr. Bacon has a quaint personality that is going to place him where he belongs—in the tront rank of America's greatest actors.
There will be seen chickens that get, cows and horses. in tact everything that will be seen on a well managed farm will be found in "The Hills of California" which will be played at the Bowersock opera house on Tuesday, February 21.
"Way Dow East" Lottie Blair Parker's idyllic play of New England farm life comes to the Bowersock Opera house on Monday, February 20th. It appeals not to a limited class, but to everybody with a spark of sympathy, a liking for an interesting story and a relish for good wholesome fun. There are many reasons for its popularity, its pathetic theme, its genial humor, its charming pictures of country life, its quaint characters and striking realism; but its more potent element undoubtedly in the strong humane interest that permeates every scene. To this, all classes and creeds must yield their sympatty. Miss Parker's work so admirably produced under the skillful direction of Mr. Joseph Grismer, will be interpreted by a cast that have been especially selected for their different characters. Seats now on sale at Woodward's Drug store.

FRESHMEN TO ORGANIZE.
Base Ball Team Now Certain.—Much Good Material and Work Begun in Earnest.
Dr. Naismith and Manager Plank have nearly completed the organization of a freshman base ball team to train men for the varsity team.
The freshman football team did such good work that the experiment of running a freshman base ball team will be tried this year and prospects are bright for an unusually good team. Many freshmen have practiced in the gymnasium every day for a month. The men who have been working are; Sidney Cook. U.G.Agney, Thomas Van Cleave, C.H.Hill, Ben Young, Gillette and Bailey. It is known that there are many good, tast base ball players in the freshman class and a meeting will be called next week to elect a manager and captain and make arrangements for the season's work. Games will be scheduled with all high schools that have good nines.

There is also plenty of good, new material; Washburn, who played third base for Baker last year, Young, a promising first baseman, played with Kansas City high school last year. Others who are trying for places are Van Cleve, Justice, Hawkinson, Relihan, Large and Bailey, Manager Plank is arranging the schedule which will include four games with Missouri, and exchange games with Baker, Ottawa, Washburn, Emporia, and Manhattan. A trip through Colorado may be part of the team's schedule.
FRATERNITY DEBATES CERTAIN.
Word has been received by Mr. Edgar G. Frazier from Mr. Ewing Herbert stating that the inter-fraternity debates could be held with his consent if there were only two fraternities to enter the contest.
If Only Two Frats Enter Contest Will be Held.
There are only two fraternities that are certain of going into the contest. Phi Gamma Delta and Alpha Tau Omega will compete if no other Greek letter club does. Sigma Chi seems very favorable to the plan and Phi Delta Theta may have a representative. The date for the contest has not been set. It will be agreed upon by the contestants. The question will be the same as the Missouri-Kansas question.

PHARMIC'S EXCELLENT SHOWING.
All University Men Pass.—Others Fail in State Quiz.
Every K. U., pharmacy student that took the state examination for a registered pharmacist at Wichita, last Wednesday, passed the examination. Of the fifty-seven applicants from all over the state, thirty-seven passed. The men who passed the examination are; R. E. Eythe, M. S. Ingalls, I. J. Kenyon, I. W. Morgan, Roy Riley, F. K. Smith, Clay Thom and G. W. Wilson.
These men are all juniors in the pharmacy school, and the fact that they all passed the state examination when half of the remaining applicants failed, speaks well for the work being done in that department.

PICKING TRACK MEN.
Some Representatives Already Choser. All Details of Great Meet Arranged.
Manager Plank of K. U. and R. B. Caldwell of M. S. U., last Thursday arranged the details for the indoor meet to be held in Convention hall, March 17.
There will be three contests, one between Kansas and Missouri State Universities, one between the Kansas City Athletic Club and the Y. M.C.A., and a high school contest between the Manual and Central high schools.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FEBRUARY 23, 1905.
On the other hand, nearly every man who represented Kansas last year has returned to the track this year and has been working hard to get into good form.
The Missouri team is working hard to win as in former years, but the Kansas team will not meet the same men that they met last year. The sprints and hurdles have been taken up by entirely new men
Morrow and Butler will represent Kansas in the hurdles, Finch in the sprints, Driscol in the middle distances and Bailey in the long runs.
Ackerman will put the shot, and Butler will vault. A dozen men have been working at the high jump and nearly all are trying the new form of high jump originated by Dr. Naismith. To try the possibilities of his new jump, Dr. Naismith took two freshmen, Mitchell and Robert Manning, who jumped about four and one-half feet last fall and taught them the new way. Manning has made five feet, two inches by using the Dr. Naismith plan. Lapham, a sophomore, has jumped five feet, two inches new form, and Parker of Kansas City, jumps the same height in the old style scisso jump. The new men on the jump are Young, Dodge and Smith.
TRACK TEAM SCHEDULE.
Manager Plank has announced the schedule for th's year,s track team. Kansas and Missouri will open the season at Kansas City., March 17, with an indoor meet in Convention Hall. May 6, Kansas will meet Colorado at Boulder. Missouri's team will come to Lawrence May 20, for the outdoor meet here. The date for the meet with the Rollo School of Mines at Rollo, Mo., has not been definitely decided but will be in May.
SPEAKS AT TOPEKA.
Samuel D. Bishop, a graduate of the law school in 1887, will be Toastmaster at the Democratic State Banquet held in Topeka tonight. F.M.Brady,'95,and John Johnson,'05,both of the law school will respond to toasts.

The basketball team of the University of Minnesota lost the first game on their eastern trip to Columbia by the score of 27-15.
The members of the Deutscher Verein, at Michigan, have been working hard for a couple of months and will soon be ready to appear before the public. Shortly after the beginning of the second semester the Verein will present "Flachsmanals Erzieher," a German comedy in two acts. The play is very popular on continental stages; in fact while seeing it performed, certain members of the German faculty conceived the advisability of rendering it in Ann Arbor.

The committees on the Senior play and Junior farce are busy at work, but have reached no definite conclusion as to what their plays will be.
At a meeting of the club Monday night it was decided that the prices for the play should be $1,00 in the parquet, 75 cents and 50 cents in the balcony, and 25 cents in the gallery.
Miss Bonnie Bell was elected president of the club.
Freshman representatives from all of the different fraternities at Minnesota met last night to organize a freshman Pan-Hellenic association. The project is being championed by several prominent first-year fraternity men.
Yale University will celebrate two important literary anniversaries this year. May 9, exercises will be held in memory of Schiller, who died May 9. 1805. The three-hundredth anniversary of the birth of Sir Thomas Browne, author of "Religio Medici." will come October 19, and an address on his life and work will be given by an eminent authority. Both celebrations will be held under the auspices of the Modern Language Club.
Since the dismissal or Midshipman E. C. Wiler the old question of smoking has been revived at Annapolis, and a strenuous crusade started against this breach of the naval academy regulations. A special order was read at formation today and posted on the order boards in the midshipmen's quarters announcing that any further us of tobacco by others than members of the first class will be met with immediate dismissal from the institution.
It is probable that Minnesota will play Chicago during the next football season. Minnesota has applied year after year for a game but has not heretofore been successful.
GLEE CLUB.
Only one in this Section of the Country Trips Planned.
The girls' glee club which was organized recently is making creditable progress under the leadership of Professor C. E. Hubach. The girls seem to take great interest in the organization and are trying hard to emulate the successful work of the boys' glee club,
There sixteen members of the club at present, most of whom are taking work in the voice department of the fine arts school. Professor Hubach wishes to emphasize the fact, however, that membership in the organization is open to all young women of the University. Practice is held every Thursday at 4:30 in North college.
At present the members are working on two songs; Cradle Song by Zerlet, and Danube Waltzes arranged for women's voices by Strauss. The latter is quite long and difficult.
A trip will probably not be taken this year but will next season. A concert will be given later in the spring.
Professor Hubach expects to give the opera, Der Freischutz here next year with the assistance of the local talent. He also intends to have the help of both the girls and boys glee clubs.
Prot. Hubach's splendid work
The members of the young ladies club are: Margaret Hammond, Grace Moses, Elsie Watson, Henrietta Gebhart, Anna Sweeney, Alice Taylor, Rosa Fredrickson, Bessie Livers, Mary Parks, Hazel Richardson, Grace Miller, Hannah Mitchell, Lula Arbuthnot and Fae Rutherford. Miss Mabel McKoin is the ac-

Nebraska has installed a Masonic fraternity.
An Inter-Collegiate Prohibition Association has been organized in the University of Texas. We are glad that Kansas don't need one.
The M. S. U. Independent is the best gotten up Western College weekly that comes to the Kansan table. The College Life has the best editorials in Kansas and the Normal Bulletin has an abundance of clever headlines.
All kinds of "kicks" and criticisms are coming in for Sunday's "Lion's Mouth Column." They must be signed but no one but the editor sees the signature. Some interesting objections seem already apparent.
Since a prohibition society has been organized at the University of Texas, it is suggested that Carrie Nation make another trip to that great commonwealth and stop over at Austin. The question is "What kind of a welcome would she receive now?"
It is alright, we need worry no longer. Mr. Van der Vries dreamed the other night that Kansas played Minnesota and won by a score of 18 to 0 and had a celebration in which not a single student was arrested. Mr. Van der Vries assures us that his dreams always materialize.
The College Life, of Emporia College, editorially says the Emporia girls are thinking of publishing a book entitled "Five Hundred Young Men Often Missed," as an accompanying volume to "Five Thousand Words Often Misused." The Kansas City Star remarks editorially that W. Y. Morgan lived in Emporia and was smooth enough to keep out of the awful town rows. Heavens! Emporia must be an awful town to outsiders.

One thing certain is that students are all glad that the batchet had a history.
The National Oratorical contest is still being agitated by those in the University who are anxious to see debating and oratory in this institution placed upon a more substantial basis. Some debaters that have represented the University of Kansas doubtless have done a high school justice. Oratory has practically been dead. Public speaking is a good thing and now that opportunity is offered to combine all three and get interest and enthusiasm aroused in all at once. No better way to initiate the higher standard could be pursued than by having a national contest. It would create more interest and arouse more enthusiasm than any debate or series of debates. Then too it will give Kansas a prestige that cannot be attained otherwise. It will also prove, above all else, to the outside world, that the University of Kansas unjustly bears the reputation now existant that debating and speaking are overlooked here when a skating or dancing party can be attended or a square meal awaits one of the contestants.

OBER'S
FOOTBALL RULES FOR 1905.
Under the revised rules, which I am now submitting through the medium of your valuable paper, the test of a player's ability will be his class standing. It is hoped that these rules will be approved by the W. C. T. U., Prof. Harry Thurston Peck and that vast army of editorial writers whose knowledge of the game has been obtained by reading the headlines. Walter Camp may object to some of the provisions, but what care we?
RULES.
Selection of players -The eleven players constituting the team shall be selected by the faculty, and the student who has received the highest grade in Greek anthology shall be captain of the team. No student shall be eligible for the team unless he is up in all his class work and has an established reputation for piety.
Wearing conditions-In case of rain, snow, high wind, extreme heat or extreme cold, a contest may be indefinitely postponed or transferred to a classroom.
Preliminaries—When a team appears on a field for a contest, it shall greet opposing team with the Chautauqua salute, which consists of waving the handkerchief. After this a few minutes of social intercourse, with friendly chats concerning books and writers, may precede the opening of the game.
Substitute for "the toss" Instead of tossing in a coin to determine which side gets the ball, the two captains shall be called upon to extract the cube root of a number given out by the professor of mathematics. The captain who is first to hand in the correct solution gets the ball.
Advancing the ball—The ball having been placed in the center of the field, the umpire, who must be a professor of geology, exhibits to the team having possession of the ball a fossil. All members of the team who think that they can name the geological period to which the fossil belongs hold up their right hands. The umpire selects a player to name the period. If he answers correctly, he advances the ball two yards If, in addition, he gives the scientific name of the fossil, he advances the ball five yards. If no member of the team can answer the questions propounded by the umpire, the spposing team shall be given a trial. If successful it is given the ball.
Rotation of umpires-After each touchdown there shall be a change of umpires so that the questions asked of a team may during the progress of a long and exciting game, cover the class work in zoology, applied meth aphysics, veterinary science. Sanskrit, obstetrics and other useful studies.
Offside plays—Any player who makes a grammatical error mispronounces a word or seeks assistance from a fellow student shall be deemed guilty of an offside play and his side shall be penalized at least five yards.
Substitute for kicking goal After a touchdown has been (continued from page 4.)

Several Hundred Specimens Secured from New England Museum.
A very interesting new collection of insects has been secured for the university museum. This collection formed the exhibit of the Massachusetts Agricultural College at the St. Louis exposition, and on account of the distance and the difficulty attendant upon its shipment, the college offered the collection to the University of Kansas in exchange for corresponding western specimens. The collection was packed in glass cases and the danger of breakage was so great that the express compay refused to assume any liability and it was shipped at the risk of Kansas University. Fortunately, there was no injury. The collection has been placed in the museum.
The insects represented are all New England types. Many unique features of material and arrangement are presented. Among the most interesting are examples of the several stages of growth of the insect, of mimery in the insect world, of protective imitation, and of antigeny.
The development of the Lepidoptera is represented by specimens of the Gypsy Moth in all the stages of growth, from the egg to the full grown insect. Here the arrangement lends special interest. Around the specimens of the moth are arranged specimens of all of its enemies, in the order of their importance.
There are many examples of mimicry in the insect world. The most notable, perhaps, is that of a beetle and a moth which look so much alike that a novice could not distinguish between them. There are also examples of flies and bees which resemble each other very closely.
The protective imitation in insects is striking. Specimens are shown of two different species of butterfly of which the one is very distasteful to birds, the other very palatable. The resemblance between them is so strong that both are immune from attack though the second type would otherwise be sought as prey. Similarity of coloring between insects and trees often decries the eye. The most common examples of this are a

FOOTBALL RULES FOR 1905.
Continued from page 2. made, the team making it shall be credited with five points and the captain of the team shall translate 500 words of Caesar's commentaries. If he does so without an error his team is given an additional point, the same as it a goal were kicked. It he falls the ball goes to the opposing team on the 25-yard line.
Resuming play-On resuming play after a touchdown, one of the players to be known as "it" is blindfolded and the players join hands and circle around him, singing:
"London bridge is falling down,
Falling down, falling down.
London bridge is falling down,
So farewell, my ladies!"
London bridge is falling down, So farewell my ladies!"
While the players are circling about, the player known as "it" touches one of the other players in a gentlemanly manner, asks him three questions, which must be answered. If he succeeds, he picks up the ball and advances it 15 yards.
Conduct during game-No pushing, seuffling or boisterous conversation will be permitted. Both players and spectators must maintain absolute silence during the mental tests.
These rules probably will require further elaboration, but as they are given herewith they are sufficient to start the game on a new and humane system.

VALUABLE MUSEUM COLLECTION.
Continued from page 3.
As examples of antigeny, many types are shown in which the sexes are of a different color or size, and some instances in which the difference is so marked that no resemblance can be seen.
This collection is a valuable addition to the specimens already in the museum since the latter comprise almost exclusively western specimens, and the duplicate New England types will make the University collection much stronger. There is already in the museum a large collection of Lepidotera, embracing more than one hundred species, (the specimens from which the original description was made) and a still larger collection of Hymenoptera, embracing over one thousand specimens. The insects in the Massachusetts collection are of these two orders and make the University collection complete. The collection will be open to inspection, but left in the packing cases for the present until the specimens can be thoroughly cleaned.

"You Yonson," the great comedy-drama which is one of the most familiar and one of the best liked of the day, will be seen at the Bowersock Opera House on Saturday, February 25. It is now in its thirteenth year of uninetrrupted success, which is a record which closely approaches those held by any of the good, wholesome plays seen throughout the country in past years. Both humor and sentiment figure in the makeup of this sterling play. The character of "You Yonson" represents in a faithful manner a quiet, simple-minded, inoffensive Swede, who in his own way tries to make a living without offending or injuring anyone.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS.
Vol. I. No. 39.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FEBRUARY 25, 1905.
DR. BURDICK ON LEGTURE TOUR.
5 Cents per copy.
Popular U. Professor Has Assumed New Role as Lecturer.
[Name missing]
Dr. William L Burdick of the law school left Friday on a lecturing tour through the Northern
part of the state and will be gone until Tuesday. During his absence he will deliver lectures in several of the leading towns in the northern part of Kansas and two in Kansas City.
Proof. Burdick lectured Friday night at Blue Rapids before the teachers Association on "The Gospel of Work." He lectures tonight at Clyde on the lecture course of that town. Monday night he will discourse at Nortonville on "Winning His Spurs."
The most important place that Dr. Burdick will appear is in Kansas City, Sunday. He will speak at the First Congregational church Sunday morning and Sunday afternoon he will address a Bible study class. At night he will lecture before the Young Men's Club at the Clvde Congregational church in the place of the regular service.
DRAMATIC CLUB.
Dr. Burdick is a graduate of Yale, and received his Doctors degree from Grant University. He is known over Kansas as a speaker of unusual qualifications and is always in demand, which speaks more for Prof. Burdick than all the newspaper praise.
Owing to a misunderstanding on the part of the officers of the dramatic club, as to the eligibility rules, and the power and duties of the eligibility committee, confusion has arisen which has made it embarrassing for the present cast of "All comforts of Home." The facts of the case are these:
Last year there was an understanding between the law school and the officers of the dramatic club that no student in the law school should enter the club without first obtaining the consent of the dean. But this year the matter of admitting students to the club was placed under the supervision of the eligibility committee, and it was to this committee that all names were submitted for approval. Through some accident the names of some of the students in the cast did not have the approval of the school of law, and it is due to this accident that the misunderstanding has arisen. The club of course has acted, as it thought, in the spirit and letter of the rules imposed by the eligibility committee, and therefore feels that it should not be made to suffer.
MOTION FOR NEW TRIAL.
Court's Errors Presented by Prof. Higgins.
The motion for a new trial in the case of "The City of Lawrence vs DeGeer," was argued in the district court by Prof. Higgins. The court took it under advisement and will render a decision on March 22.
First: Variance between complaint and proof as to the locality where the offense occurred.
The grounds for the motion were the following:
Second: Complaint was defective because it did not state that the place where the fireworks were discharged was within the fire limits of the city.
Third, That the court erred in refusing to permit the defendant to prove that roman candles were not dangerously combustible in their nature.
THE ART EXHIBIT DIDN'T PAY.
From a financial stand point the recent art exhibit did not pay. Many town people who are interested in art and the general welfare of the University agreed to make up any deficiency that should occur in the treasury of the Fine Arts department should the recent exhibit fail to pay out. The total expenditure was nearly $818, with receipts from all sources, including some contributions $668.61. This deficit of $149 and some cents is divided among 100 guarantors which means the payment of $1.50 apiece by these guarantors. The first money that accrues from future exhibits will be used to reimburse the present subscribers.
Another exhibit will be held next year for a certainty. The first one was a financial success and more than paid out. The reason assigned for this year's deficiency is the fact that the weather was unusually inclement throughout the exhibit.
This scholarship bestowed in memory of Miss Marcella Howland, of the class of 1890, is open to the young ladies of the Junior and Senior classes of the College. The award is made the first of May and all applications must be in the hards of the Chancellor by the fifteenth of April. The faculty committee on the Scholarship is Professor Galloo, Mr. Engel and Miss Miss Lynn, from whom further information may be obtained.

U. HOSPITAL NEXT FALL.
To Be in Kansas City by October.—A Four Years Medical Course Certain.
There is little doubt that the University of Kansas will next fall have a hospital and clinic department at Rosedale, Kansas. a suburb of Kansas City and an ideal place for a great hospital and the last two years of a medical course in the University of Kansas. Steps have already been taken to realize on the gift of Dr. Simeon Bell, amounting to about $80,000 dollars worth of land in Rosedale, and in Jackson and Cass counties, Missouri, and as soon as this land can be converted into cash the work of erecting a large building and permanently establishing one of the largest, up-to-date hospitals and clinic schools in the United States and especially in the West will be begun.
It was in 1894 that Dr. Simceon Bell, a physician of Rosedale, gave to the University a tract of land in Rosedale consisting of 101 lots and a sevenacre tract on which a hospital
F. A. BARCLAY
CLARENCE E. MICLUNG Dean of Medical School.
should be erected in memory of Dr. Bell's wife. Since the gift Chancellor Spangler and Chancellor Snow tried to realize on the gift, but it seemed impossible. Last spring Dr. Bell came to Lawrence and gave land valued at about $25,000, in addition to his previous gift, and the original time limit for the official acceptance of the land by the University, with the sanction of the legislature, was extended to May, 1905, otherwise the entire grant would have reverted to Dr. Bell last year.
Chancellor Strong and members of the school of medicine seem very confident that by next September or October the last two years of the medical course will be given in Kansas City. This will be much better than if it was done in Lawrence because it would be impossible to get the proper clinic work here. There are not enough people here in the first place. Accidents are few and the sickness here is not the kind nor in the class of people that aids in the work of great clinical departments. Cornell has a large hospital and
medical department in New York near Belleview Park. Ithaca, where Cornell proper is situated, is a small town about the size of Lawrence. Illinois California, Texas, Colorado and Nebraska universities also have their medical departments, at least the last two years of the medical course, in large cities of the respective states. Texas has a department at Galveston and another at Dailas.
All of these medical colleges have proven a success though some are much more successful than others. With the location that Kansas University has for a hospital, and with the energy that is behind the course as planned it will doubtless develop remarkably rapid and in a few years Kansas should have the most modern and largest medical school in the West. This is what the faculty and Chancellor will strive for and on past records it is to be concluded that success is certain.
The present two years course here in Lawrence is as good as can be secured in any medical college in the Uaited States and students from here are accepted with full two year's credit in any medical school in America. The training is as thorough and as far advanced as any two year's course but demand is for a four years course and this must be had before the University of Kansas can ever reach the high standing among the greatest Universities of America that it is striving for. Many students annually go East because they cannot complete their course here and Kansas University has lost hundreds of good students on this account.
Dr. Hoxie and Dean McClung are very enthusiastic over the prospects for a complete course and a Rosedale hospital.
In taiking of the hospital and clinics, Chancellor Strong said to a Kansas reporter, "Every year we receive many applications for admission to the medical department, but when the applicants find out that we have only a two year's course they go further East and consequently we are loosing a great many students that we should have. The great development in clinical work and the new methods employed in medicine and surgery make necessary a large supply of clinical material, which is afforded, in general only in the centers of large populations. The University of Kansas, therefore found it necessary for the future welfare of the medical school to establish its clinical work where it could be sure of a large amount of clinical material.
E. R. Buckner, who for the last two years led the debating team of Nebraska so successfully against Kansas represents Harvard University this year in the debate with Yale. Mr. Buckner finished last year at Nebraska and is taking a law course at Harvard.

This is the last Sunday edition of THE KANSAN that the present editor-in-chief ever expects to issue, at least, he sincerely hopes, and conceives a prayer to the effect, that he will never more feel obliged to walk to 639 Massachusetts street once or twice a day and spend most of his time when not walking, in grinding out copy and "heavy" editorials.
The present "we" should have relinquished his grasp on THE KANSAN editorial pen a month ago, but a fool and his money are soon parted and it is a well established tact that editors are a poor lot.
Since assuming the responsibilities of editor of THE KANSAN, and endeavoring to maintain a publication by that name in the University, "we" have learned more than "we" can ever tell Some learning has been very valuable. Much has not. Enemies' promises are more to be feared than enemies' daggers, especially when confidence and dependence are placed in the assertions of those apparently sincere and of good faith.
But the past is the past and the only way to ever make THE KANSAN a daily, and properly grease the wheels of political friction and prejudice in the University newspaper world, is by thoroughly establishing the merit system and strictly abiding by absolute rules governing the same. True merit must count regardless of classes and prestige. This system is at present installed on THE KANSAN with little modification. The next staff, and the editors and staff chosen for the fall term, more than the next members of THE KANSAN, will decide whether or not the true merit system is to live or perish. We believe that within a week or two all political factions, without limitation, will be working for the best interests of the paper, though some other interests may be merged into the great merit system. However, these interests will not be injurious so long as they are properly combined.
It would be vainglory and is
needless to sum up our achievements. This is an honest old world, as a whole, and just deserts generally result from sincere and honest efforts.
"We" have possibly made many enemies. "We" have made some friends as a result of THE KANSAN that would not be traded for the friendship of twice our enemies. Just the same, here's hoping that THE KANSAN lives a long and glorious life, that our enemies become our friends and that our friendships remain ever the truest and most faithful.
The question is,—"What will become of the Graduate Magazine if a real clever monthly is started next year?"
At a party recently given by a class in the University it is said that shin guards and toe protectors were very much needed.
There is still a demand for a good monthly in the University of Kansas. One that will interest alumni and students alike and will have some really up-to-date reading matter. Such a magazine is bound to succeed it handled judiciously.
A word of advice to the next KANSAN editor. Get a leather pouch and hang it on your side under your coat. When eating be sure to put everything except hot water and malted milk in it Also, do not remain up later than ten thirty at nights on penalty of most agonizing affliction
In the minds of a majority of the students of the University of Kansas, there is little doubt but that athletic relations should be resumed with Nebraska. It is important, not only for our own welfare and the promotion of athletics here, but for the promotion of athletics in this section of the United States. Nebraska,

OBER'S
we understaud, is as willing as Kansas, and the only question now is—Who will bear the flag and head the peace commission?
Rumor in private newspaper circles has it that some Kansas City newspaper men are going to back up a K.U. monthly next year and put the best talent that ever left K.U. in charge of it. This will doubtless be a credit to the University and fill a long felt want, if done.
"The KANSAN, K. U. publication at Lawrence, in a paragraph of advice to contributors, says: "Don't say city when speaking of a town the size of this." Well, we should say not."
The above is from the Washburn Review, and we certainly include Topeka with all its suburban portions thrown in, when we say, "don't say city." If Topeka and all adjoining it should come floating down the Kaw, there is no one in the University who would cut class to see it pass, unless the legislature was in session in the capitol. Kansas has no real cities, but many good towns.
The fact that the art exhibit did not prove a grand financial success this year should not have a tendency to discourage those having the matter in charge and those upon whom the responsibility of paying the shortage rests. The exhibit was a success from the artist's standpoint and the only reason why it was not successful from the financier's standpoint is the fact that the thermometer registered below zero most of the time during the display and the hill, which is difficult to climb under ordinary circumstances, was covered with snow and sleet almost continually. There is no reason why, as viewed this far off, that next year's exhibit should not more than pay the one hundred and fifty dollars shortage of this year.

U. DEMOGRATS AT TOPEKA.
Johnson Does U. Honor in Toasting—"Young Democracy."
J. A. Johnson, of the senior Law class, addressed the representative Democrats of the state on "Young Democracy," at the big Democratic Banquet, in Topeka Wednesday night. The banquet, which is an annual affair, was the largest and most successful ever given. W. J Bryan, the guest of hono' was the speaker of the evening. Other speakers were; H. O. Coster of Oberlin, F. M. Brady of Oswego, and R. W. Blair of Topeka.
It was no small honor for Mr. Johnson to be given a place on a program with the leaders of his party. The Topeka papers complimented him very highly. He made a decided hit when he said "The Republican state ownership measures, as compared with Populistic measures, seems like a spavined nightmare on the track of a beautiful dream."
Other young Democrats of the University who attended the banquet were; J. W. Blood, H. M. Sanders, F. F. Perry, Geo, Benson, D. J. Sheedy, James Brady, J. W. Woodford, J. W. Pattison and E. E. Disney, K. U. pennants formed a goodly part of the decorations.

IN SOCIETY.
It seems to be the general verdict that the annual party given Tuesday evening, by the Sigma Chi fraternity, was the most successful fraternity party given this year, and without doubt excelled all others in pleasure. Every little detail was so perfectly arranged that Sigma Chi will hereafter bear a reputation as a fraternity composed of exceptional entertainers if that brotherhood should fail to entertain a single friend the remainder of the year.
The guests were received by Messrs. Vene Fry, George Hanson, Warren Henley, Waldo Wellington and Mr. Purknolder, and Misses Alberta Bingler, Gertrude Mossler, Olga Newton, Anna Lanter, and Miss Auburn.
Punch and waters were served throughout the evening and supper was served in the dining room during intermission, when white roses were given to the guests as favors.
Out of town guests were : Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Edwards, Wichita; Mr. and Mrs. McClay Lyons, Ralph Morrison, Ray Clifford, Dudley Doolittle, Frank Thompson, Mr. Hoffman, Henry Carson, Miss Marianne Brooke, Kansas City; Miss Anna Lanter and George Pickering, Olathe, Misses Lillian Foster, Carlotta Nellis, Mamie Veale, Alex Loomis and George Veale, Topeka, Mr. Earnest Singlev, St. Marys; Mr. Walter Sutton, Peru; Mr. and Mrs. Forest Cochran, Plainville, Miss Wall, Wichita; Roy Rauch, Topeka, and Miss Gertrude Mossler, Chicago, Ill.
Squires never fails. His pictures are always the best.
