NUMBER 29
JAYHAWKERS AND CORNHUSKERS RESUME RELATIONS.
A Basket Ball Game at Lincoln, and a Track Meet at Lawrence.
The representatives, C. O. Pingry and Professor A. T. Walker of the Kansas Athletic board met Dean Pound and Maurice Benedict of the Nebraska athletic board at Lincoln, Nebraska, New Year's day, to confer concerning the resumption of athletic relations between the two universities. The delegates met in the Elks' club room at 10 o'clock, and within an hour their business was transacted.
The representatives of each board showed a spirit of mutual friendliness. Each felt that fair play alone was the spirit of their respective schools, and with such no hitch in the negotiations could result. The representatives, after the preliminaries agreed upon the following plans, subject to the final action of the athletic boards of the two schools:
That the annual football game should be played alternately at Lincoln and Lawrence, the first one at the former place, and that in case any difficulties arise an arbiter should be chosen who will in all probability be the one selected by the "Big Nine;" that all athletic contests should be governed by the Chicago Conference Rules; that the financial question be settled later by the athletic managers of the two universities.
It is very probable that a basket ball game, a track meet and a base ball game will yet be scheduled between the two schools for this spring.
Professor Walker and Mr. Pingry report a very pleasant visit while at Lincoln. They were accorded all the courtesies by the Nebraskans that representatives from any university could wish.
The Short Grass Game.
There is little doubt, if any that the Kansas athletic board will receive the report of the conference with unanimous favor.
The Short Grass football team played the strong Glasco aggregation on Christmas and after a fierce struggle, the game resulted in a tie 5 to 5. Pooler, Hicks, Rouse, Pete Allen and Hart were in the game for the Short Grass boys. During the holidays the same teams met in basket ball, and although Glasco claims the state championship the K. U. stars were too much for them, and won both games. Something is always "doing" when Pete Allen and Hicks play basket ball.
Mandolin Club Returns.
The Mandolin Club returned Tuesday, tired and weary after a two weeks' tour of Southern Kansas and northern Oklahoma. They had "oodles" of fun,which in fact comprised their principal asset from the trip. They played at Gatnett on Tuesday night, where they had one of the largest houses on the whole trip. The expenses of the trip were stood by Manager McReynolds, who came out a little behind financially, but he hopes to make up the deficiency by some spring concerts.
The club traveled 1300 miles in fifteen days. Their first stop was a Newton, Kans., on December 26th; on the 27th they played at Wellington; Kas.; the 28th at Perry, Okla.; the 29th at Enid, and the 30th at Tulsa, I. T. They spent Sunday at Sapulpa, I. T., where they gave a concert Monday night, Jan. 1st. On the 2nd of January they were generously received at Holdenville, I. T. On the night of the third, the club and the quartette were billed to appear at Perkins, Okla., under the auspices of the W. C T. U. On account of a wreck on the Santa Fe they were laid over in Oklahoma City and missed their engagement. The ladies of the W. C. T. U. had sold every seat in the house at Perkins.
On January 4th, they played in Stillwater, Okla., and on the fifth at Newkirk, Okla. They were unable to get to Independence, Kansas, on the night of the 6th, so a performance was given that night in Arkansas City. The concert was worked up in the afternoon with the result of a house large enough to pay the expenses in the evening. The boys attempted to give the Rock Chalk yell on the main street but were stopped by a policeman. They were forced to procure from the mayor a license to yell, in order to escape arrest for disturbing the peace. Sunday, Jan. 7th, was spent at Winfield and a Concert given at Garnet, Kansas, on Monday the 8th. The club arrived home Tuesday morning at 9:30.
The Betas begin the University social functions with their spring party next Friday night, Jan. 12. The Kappas give theirs on Jan. 20. The Thetas follow on Jan. 26; Chi Omegas, Feb. 2; Sig Alphs, Feb. 14; Phi Psis, Feb. 19; Sigma Chis, Feb. 23; Phi Delts, last of February; the Alpha Taus, Kappas, Sigma Nus and Phi Gams have not decided on theirs yet. Pi Beta Phi will give no spring party this year.
Dates of Spring Parties.
The sophomores will have the second of their series of parties in Fraternal Aid Hall, January, 20th.
C. F. Parker, of Olathe, is visiting his brother, Glen Parker, at the Phi Psi house.
AN UNTIMELY DEATH.
Marshall Fairchild Shot While Hunting.
Marshall Fairchild, a freshman in the College, accidently shot himself while hunting on December 30th near his home at Kingman, Kansas. He died almost instantly. The details of the accident are as follows:
Marshall and his brother Clem and one or two other companions were hunting, out in the vicinity of Olcott, late Saturday evening, and had just driven to the hunting grounds and stopped to get out of their conveyance. Marshall had already gotten out of the buggy and in taking the gun out, took it by the muzzle and dragged it toward him, when in some manner the hammer of the gun was caught and the gun discharged; the charge entering his abdomen. He made a short explanation, saying: "My God, I'm shot!" and sank to the ground, dying almost instantly, in the arms of his brother, Clem, who caught him. Word was immediately telephoned to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Fairchild of Kingman, and the shock of the intelligence was almost more than they could bear. Arrangements were at once made to have the body brought to Kingman, the accident having occurred some twenty three miles from there.
Young Fairchild was 19 years of age and had entered the University to take the College work as a preparation for law. His father, C.W. Fairchild, is a representative in the state legislature and one of the prominent lawyers of the state.Marshall was of a quiet disposition and was little known outside his immediate circle of friends, but among them he was held in highest esteem.
He is a Jayhawker.
Herbert Hadley, attorney general of Missouri, who has stepped into the lime light by his examination of H. H. Rogers of the Standard Oil Company, is a Kansas boy. His people lived in Olathe, and he graduated from the College of the University in 1892. He is a relative of Bert Beach of the junior law class.
Some of the audience at Perry, Oklahoma, stole the gloves out of the overcoats of the mandolin club boys. But as there were only twelve in the audience they had little trouble in locating the culprit and got back all the gloves but four pairs.
Will Hackney, president of the junior class of last year has returned to school after seven months practical experience with the Santa Fe in New Mexico. The party he was with surveyed the proposed cut off from Amarillo to Albuquerque.
Received No Money.
The participation of Captain Donald and McCarty in the La Harpe-Chanute football game during the holidays has brought forth a great deal of comment in some of the Topeka papers. The State Journal in a long article questions the eligibility of the two men for college games in the future, and makes the statement that La Harpe got six hundred dollars for her share of the receipts and that the amount above expenses was divided up among the players.
However, Donald and McCarty only received their expenses and had obtained full permission of the athletic board to take part in the game.
The chief feature of the game was Donald's fierce playing and his gains were better than those of Rogers, the Yale man, who was one of Camps "All Americans." The big Kansas captain has few equals in the United States.
Freshmen Now Eligible.
The new ruling which allows colleges under the Chicago Conference rules to play freshmen from the first of January instead or February, will have a good effect on the basket ball schedule. The games which were lost at Newton and at Baker University would have been on the other side of the balance had Forrest Allen, 'Tommy' Johnson and Bergen been able to alternate the 'Varsity men. The basket ball schedule is almost made up and will be printed in the Kansan of Saturday. It includes a trip through Nebraska, Iowa and Illinois to Chicago. Manager Lansdon has made up the best schedule in the history of basket ball at K U. for this year's team.
Has Typhoid Fever.
Charles Hoffman, 08, the star pitcher of last year's baseball team, is ill with typhoid fever at his home near Hope, Kansas. He took the disease after arriving home for the holidays and has shown little improvement since. "Hoffy", as he is familiarly known among the athletes, is a fine student and was one of the best college pitchers in the state last year. He led the team in batting, which is unusual for a pitcher. The pitching staff for the coming season will be considerably weakened if Hoffman is unable to return.
Prof. C. G. Dunlap spent his vacation visiting his mother at Chillicothe, Ohio, and relatives at Columbus, Ohio. He expected to stay to see the inauguration of the new governor, a relative of his, but on account of a severe snow storm that threatened to mar the exercises, he left before the ceremonies took place.

WEDNESDAY. JANUARY 10. 1906
On one of the fifteen hundred homes represented at the University of Kansas rests the gloom of an awful sorrow. While mothers and fathers send back their sons and daughters with godspeeds and loving farewells, one mother and one father have said their last goodby to a noble son. He was young and it was Christmas. Youth and holidays! Could death have come when less wanted or expected, or chosen a victim on whom it had less claim? The heart of every student and of every parent whose son or daughter is in the University feels and shares in sympathy the grief of Mr. and Mrs. C.W. Fairchild at the most untimely death of their son Marshall.
It is in order in this, the first number of the new year, to scan the year that is past and see wherein we may profit from our failures and successes. The Kansan begins the year 1906 with a larger subscription list and more paid advertising than any other student paper ever issued by the University of Kansas. There are fourteen people on the Kansan board, and a more zealous and earnest working body never served on a college publication. They have made the Kansan what it is. They have not covered the news field entirely, but they have done it as thoroughly as it is possible for students to do and carry the required amount of college work. They are as representative a body of students as could be gotten together, and their motto is, the University first and the Kansan second. The editor, business manager, and board of the Kansan thank the faculty and students of the University for the support they have given the paper during the past year, and hope to merit irs continuance.
The resuming of athletic relations with Nebraska is a happy ending to an unfortunate affair. Our representatives
speak nothing but good of the treatment accorded them at the sister institution, and come back with a higher regard for Nebraska and the men who control her athletics. If our contests on the gridiron are as satisfying as the result of the conference was, Kansas and Nebraska are truly entering upon a new lease of friendship. Nor is there any reason why they should not be. Neither institution was guiltless in the acts preceding the breach. Nebraska was probably arrogant, and Kansas may have acted hastily and untimely. But that belongs to history; let us rejoice that we are once more on good terms with an institution that is our natural rival. We should not forget to give the credit to the present athletic board for bringing this about. The present athletic board has much fo be proud of. It stands higher in the estimation of the students than any like council for years past. It has been a unit and has not wasted its time in factional quarrels and personal intrigues.
Professors Ida H. Hyde and C. E. McClung of the University of Kansas attended the annual meeting of the American Physiological Association at Ann Arbor, Michigan, December 27 to 29. Nearly every university in the United States was represented. Professor Hyde read a paper giving the details of her recent physiological experiments in the laboratories of the University of Kansas.

Boynton, Marvin and Bailey Attend from Kansas.
The meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and of allied Societies, at New Orleans, December 29 to January 2, was attended by Professors F. O. Marvin, E. H. S. Bailey and A. J. Boynton of the University of Kansas. The meetings for reading of papers were held at Tulane University, a well endowed institution, and practically the State University of Louisiana within the city limits. Numerous excursions were organized, including visits to a sugar plantation a sugar refinery, a rice mill, the Experiment Station laboratory and the works of the sewage and drainage departments. Much attention was directed to reports on the recent yellow fever epidemic, and to papers on sanitation. On Tuesday evening, the Sigma Xi members present had a banquet at one of the restaurants in the old French Quarter of the city, and much interest was shown in the society. Remarks on the growth of the society and its future were made by the president, E. L. Nichols formerly of Kansas University and now professor of physics at Cornell University, and by Professor F. O. Marvin of the University of Kansas, and by Professor Trelease.

It is only within the last few decades that the novel has been given much attention in college courses. This book is timely and a real contribution to pedagogical literature.

COUNTY CLUBS.
Had Successful Holiday Meetings=- Number Smaller Than Last Year.
The Christmas vacation was marked this year by a considerable number of county club functions over the state. The number of these meetings was less than last year, but all were highly successful. Several of the clubs played Christmas football with their home high school teams, while others gave banquets and receptions to their friends at home. A partial list of these events is as follows.
CLAY COUNTY.
The Clay county football team played the high school football team at Clay Center on Christmas day, winning the game by a score of 10 to 0. The club gave a spread in the Knights of Pythias Hall at Clay Center. Many graduates and former students of the University were present and renewed their enthusiasm for their alma mater. The collegiate seniors of the Clay County high school were among the guests of the club and they entered enthusiastically into the University spirit which made the affair a splendid success.
BOURBON COUNTY.
The Bourbon county students organized a winning football team and played the Fort Scott high school team on Christmas day. The game was close and spirited and resulted in a victory for the University boys with a score of 2 to 0.
CHEROKEE COUNTY.
The Cherokee county club gave its 3rd annual reunion and reception at Columbus on the evening of Jan. 3. About seventy-five guests, seniors, faculty and graduates of the county high school, enjoyed the hospitality of the club. University songs and yells were given, the guests contributing their share of the enthusiasm. After short speeches by club members and high school instructors refreshments were served and the remainder of the evening was spent with games and music.
ATCHISON COUNTY.
The University students from the Atchison county high school gave a reception at the high school, Friday evening, Jan. 5. After a social hour, during which time punch was served, the guests were seated and an informal program was rendered consisting of short talks by three college graduates and K. U. songs. Hon. Scott. Hopkins, one of the regents of the University, was present and made a very interesting speech upon "College Days." The sounds of "Rock Chalk" and the "Red and the Blue" kept things lively throughout the evening. This is the first K. U. club gathering in Atchison county for several years past but the event will hereafter be an annual affair.
SUMNER COUNTY.
The Sumner county club and the old students and alumni of the University gave their third annual Christmas banquet at the home of Mr. and Mrs. H. F. Smith, at Wellington, Kansas, January 3rd. The senior class of the county high school and the football team were the guests of honor. A four course dinner was served to sixty people. Between the courses Chas. E. Johnston,'98, as toastmaster, introduced the speakers and led in the singing of many K, U. songs. Toasts were given by Carl Young, Edgar Corwine, E. T. Hackney and B.A.Earhart, of the club, and by Regent Butcher and Professor G.C. Wakefield of the Sumner county high school. The pleasures of the evening closed amid the strains of the "Crimson and the Blue," and the famous cry Rock! Chalk! Jay Hawk! K.U.
The Montgomery county club banqueted the high. school students of the county on the evening of January 3rd. A large number of upper classmen of the high school attended and the evening was a rousing success. Many prominent business men of the town and county

Artistic Photography
Principles are eternal. A fundamental business principle is, "Not what you spend, but what you get for what you spend," that counts.

Miss Juno B. Shane,
made short after dinner talks on education and the University. The club football team defeated the county high school team by a score of 4 to 0 and only the referee's whistle saved the high school boys from an additional 5 or 6 points in another minute or two.

A GREAT TRIP
BASKET BALL BOYS TO SWING AROUND THE CIRCLE.
First Game to Be Here Monday Night with the Chilocco Indians.
Manager W. C. Lansdon has just completed the most extensive basket ball schedule in the history of that sport at K. U. The southern trip was successful in a way. The State Normal School and the Chilocco Indians were defeated by a large margin, although the Newton and Baker games were lost by three baskets.
The first game will be played Monday night in the gymnasium against the Chilooco Indians. The Indians were defeated on their own grounds 43 to 17 but have developed better team work. A game with Washburn has been arranged to be played here Jan. 22. Return games with Baker and the Teachers will also be played late in January. The eastern trip will include the following games: Des Moines Y. M. C. A., at Des Moines, Feb. 12; Highland Park, at Des Moines, Feb. 13; Iowa University, Iowa City, Feb. 14; Armour Institute, Chicago, Feb. 15; Evans Y. M. C. A. Feb. 16, and Central Y. M. C. A., Chicago, Feb. 17.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, JANUARY 13, 1906.
A western trip will include Washburn, K. S. A. C., and Nebraska University at Lincoln. A game with K. C. A. C. may be arranged to fill in the schedule if the team fulfills expectations. The lineup for Monday evening will probably be: Forwards, Smith and Barlow; guards, Capt. M. B. Miller and Winnagle; center, Siler.
Among the men who may be given a tryout are: Allen, Johnson, Bergen, Collins, and Russell.
Dr. Burdick on the Platform.
Dr. W. L. Burdick gave several lectures during the holidays to Kansas and Oklahoma town audiences. At Garden City, Kansas, he spoke the evening of Dec. 26th on the subject, "Winning His Spurs," and at Stafford, Kansas, Dec. 27th. He addressed the Annual Teachers' Association of South McAllister, I. T., on the "Elements of True Greatness," Dec. 29th. Large and appreciative audiences greeted him at each place.
Another Death in Student Body.
Hugh Stewart, a freshman, died Thursday evening at his home in Council Grove, Kansas, with diptheria. Young Stewart was a pledge of the Phi Delt fraternity and was well liked among his classmates.' He was nineteen years old.
The date of the Sigma Chi party as given in the last Kansan is Feb. 21, instead of Feb. 23.
THE FIRST PARTY.
The Betas Give Spring Party in Fraternal Aid Hall.
NUMBER 30
The Alpha Nu of the Beta Theta Pi entertained two hundred of their friends at the Fraternal Aid Hall last night. Soon after eight o'clock the guests began to meet Harry Hart, Clara Carr, Karl Humphrey, Helen Alder, Will West and Hedwig Berger, the receiving line, and by nine o'clock the hall and corridors were filled with groups of merry co-eds and jolly college men. Harry Hart, '06, and Miss Dana Gatlin, 05, from Paola, Kans., led the grand march. The programs, conventional affairs with the Beta shield in color on the front and a roll of the active chapter in the back, were given out by Howard Finch, Miss Ruby Phillips, Forest Mead and Lillian Truesdale. Jimmerson's orchestra of Kansas City furnished the music for twenty-two dances and yet when the strains of "Home Sweet Home" came the dancers were reluctant to leave. Refreshments consisting of sandwiches and olives, coffee, ice cream and cake, were served in the dining room of the hall at 12 o'clock. Lon Silvers, of Morgansville, Winnifred Everingham and Josephine Keizer of Topeka, Joe Pulliam and Margaret Garvey of Lyons, Ray Adams and I. U. Smith of Kansas City, Dana Gatlin of Paola, Clyde W. Miller and wife, Chas. W. Barnes and wife and Florence Miller from Osage City, were some of the out of town guests.
Subjects for Iowa and Missouri Debates under Consideration.
QUESTIONS SUBMITTED.
The question for the Iowa debate has been submitted by the debating authorities of that institution. It is, "Resolved, that the United States should establish a fiscal protectorate over any West Indian, Central, or South American Republic whenever it shall manifest a chronic failure to meet its foreign financial obligations." Granted: That neither these republics nor any other foreign nation would object.
Kansas has the choice of sides and the committee of the council will report as soon as possible.
In the Missouri debate which will be held here, Missouri has choice of sides. The question has been submitted by the University council some time ago. It is, "That Congress should grant power to a commission to fix and enforce railway rates. Granted: That no action of Congress after the submission of this question shall enter into this debate.
DONE IN A YEAR
EXCAVATION OF NEW GYM BEGUN WEST OF SHOPS.
To Have Three Floors--Swimming Pool on Basement Floor.
"It will be done by next Christmas," said Dr. Naismith today while speaking to a Kansas reporter about the new gym. Teams and men are already at work excavating for the foundation. The plans for this, the eleventh edifice to crown the crest of Mount Oread as prepared by the State architect, John Stanton, and Dr. Naismith, are as follows:
The building will face the northeast. The exterior dimensions are 178 feet by 70 feet. At either end the building is 90 feet wide, extending 25 feet this width a "T" is formed by a 10 foot jog for the remaining length. The north and main entrances will be similar to that of Fraser Hall. Exactly opposite the main entrance a room 60 feet long by 24 feet wide will extend from the south wall to be used for the swimming pool.
The main part of the basement floor will be divided into two big locker rooms 58x70, the east one for the girls and the west for the boys. Along the north side of these rooms will be two bowling alleys. At the east "T" shaped end will be two additional rooms for the girls while on the west will be four rooms, athletic manager's office, football, track and base ball lockers.
The first floor will be the main apparatus and gymnasium room and will contain two large 58x70 rooms with a folding door partition, the east for girls and west for boys. At the east end will be two rooms for the young women's physical director and a separate apparatus room while on the west Dr. Naismith will have an office and examination room and a large trophy room.
The second story will be the auditorium floor 70x116 ft., seating 2,000 people. A large platform will extend across the west end. This floor will also be used to give indoor track meets in since the seats will be only temporary. Above this will be a gallery extending entirely around the room. It can and will be used for the long distance runners there being sixteen laps to the mile.
Native stone will be used $ ^{a} $ in the construction of the building and when completed it will have cost the State $100,000.
John Bennett, who has been doing field work for the State Geological Survey will be here for about a month doing map work under Prof. Haworth's direction. The maps are for the report on oil and gas.
PUBLIC CONTROL OF INDUSTRY.
Senator Taylor Not Afraid of "Paternallsm".
Hon. Edwin Taylor, of Edwardsville, state senator from Wyandotte county, in the course of his speech in chapel yesterday morning suggested public control of industry as a probable and satisfactory way out of present industrial conditions. He indicated the extent of state action in the control of educational affairs and suggested that public control of industries would be analagous to the school system as a means of securing the greatest possible opportunities to the greatest number.
He said in part: "There are in the three state institutions over five thousand students and those schools are maintained at an annual cost of a half million dollars. The public schools of the state cost seven millions annually and one-fourth million boys and girls profit by them. The state is spending this amount cheerfully to "capitalize" the citizenship of coming years. And it will pay good dividends. This is a good principle whether you call it paternalism or simply individualism under conditions of greatest opportunity.
If public interference works so well in educational affairs, why not in industry? As Mr. Stubbs said early in the year from this platform: 'The greatest good to the most people, must be the standard of government action. There is no risk in saying that the greater number are waking up to the opportunity of political equality. Disparity of wealth will be the storm-center of our coming political contentions. You students are democracy's wards and she looks to you for guidance and help."
Senator Taylor expressed his gratification with the elimination of class scraps in the University. "They are out of date" said he. "They belong to the days of clans and vendetta. The only pull now is 'pull together', and I am glad you have realized it."
University Doing It.
E. F. Crocker, superintendent of buildings and grounds, said today that the excavating that is being done for the new gymnasium was in the hands of the University and not contract work. The architect has not finished his plans and bids cannot be made until the plans are finished, so this manner of hurrying the construction of the big "gym" was chosen. The excavation is somewhat difficult on account of the stratum of limestone encountered at a depth of six feet below the surface.
The laboratory of the Chemistry II class was crowded with engineers this morning. They work on an average of three hours a day in the laboratory and prepare for a recitation a week besides.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 13. 1906
If there are any men enrolled in the college, that fact could not be discovered by noticing Dean Templin's office for the last week.
The Nebraskan ends an editorial about hiring a coach thus: "If the board will select a man, we dare say that the university as a whole will be better satisfied than if they get some man who has the ability of a Yost and the characteristics of a thug."
Every now and then some new bit of evidence comes to light sustaining the sanity and wisdom of the abandonment of the time-honored class scraps. Almost without exception, the men of affairs to whom the University must look for financial support every two years, who have visited the University since "peace was established." have commented favorably on that action. And in unexpected places all over the state a more friendly feeling is manifest, owing to the elimination of that one custom.
Reports from Missouri say the Tigers will have a stronger track team this year than they they have had for years, and that it will be an easy matter to again defeat the Jayhawkers as they have done in the last six meets. Why should this statement be true? That Kansas produces a heavier and stronger set of men is shown by her extraordinary record on the gridiron. We should not stop with football. We have the athletes that have speed, and athletes that have the other requisites for a winning track team. The question is, does this part of our athletics receive the proper encouragement? With proper training our track team will be as successful as our football team, and with a winning team will come the financial support that will make track athletics as important as football.
Today the representatives of all the leading colleges and
universities of the United States meet in New York to discuss the elimination of brutality from the college game. Washburn and Fairmount tried the proposed "ten yards in three downs" at Wichita on Christmas day with the result that half the crowd left before the game was over. It was simply a punting match participated in by two or three men. Along with the sentiment for reform of football there has grown up a feeling among men who have studied the game that it is impossible to reform football and preserve any of its essential features.
The Daily Nebraskan printed an itemized financial statement of the football season last week. "Does the memory of man runneh to" when a financial statement of the football season was printed at K.U.Wouldn't it be a good time to begin now when publicity is the watchword of society.
Pipe-Organ Recital by Professor Penny.
The people of Lawrence and the students of the University especially will be interested to learn that Professor Penny, formerly dean of the School of Fine Arts in the University, and now director of a conservatory of music in Topeka, has made arrangements to give pipe-organ recital on the new pipe-organ in the First Methodist church. Professor Penny is an artist of recognized ability, and his performances on the pipe-organ always delight his audiences. The pipe-organ in the First Methodist church, which was installed about a year ago, was built by one of the most successful organ firms in this country, Hutchings and Vote, of Boston, and in tone and power it can not be excelled. Professor Penny's program will be arranged with the view of showing the possibilities of the organ. It will be varied and interspersed with good vocal music. The recital is to be given Thursday evening, January 18, and the admission will be twenty-five cents.
Football Must Go.
The Psi U fraternity of California University has for the last two years had a mascot in the shape of a rolly-polly cinnamon bear, going the bull-dog fraternities one better. Recently his bearlets became dangerous and his loving friends were forced to kill him.
The Athletic investigating committee of the University of Wisconsin has reported to the faculty that all intercollegiate football be stopped. This means practically the stopping of all intercollegiate athletics as football furnishes the funds with which to carry on the rest of the games. The faculty has been discussing the report of the committee and has deferred final action until later.
Oscar Dahlene, '08, whose life was despaired of during the vacation, is now gradually improving. He is suffering from typhoid-pneumonia.

Manager Lansdon has already arranged for three dual track meets. The first will be held with Missouri, in Convention Hall at Kansas City, March 16; the second on McCook Field with Nebraska, and a third with Missouri at Columbia. Colorado wants to come here, as does the Rolla School of Mines; but no dates have been made with these schools on account of lack of financial support. A meet will probably be arranged with the University of Oklahoma at Oklahoma City. All the departments of track work are propressing well except the shot put. Pringle and Putnam are training the most consistently. They have done wonders with the hammer, Putnam having made 140 feet, but are not very proficient in the shot put. Donald, Brunner or Reed would be a valuable addition to the team in this line, besides giving them a fine preliminary football training.
Professor. F. W. Blackmar, dean of the Graduate School, recently received a commemorative diploma and a commemorative medal, conferred upon him, in recognition of his interest and co-operation as a member of the International Congress of Arts and Sciences at the St. Louis Exposition of 1904.

Mechanicals Dedicate Laboratory.
Tuesday morning at the usual time of meeting, the mechanical engineers met for the first time in their new laboratory in the top of the Fowler shops tower. The mechanical engineers thought it fitting that the laboratory should be dedicated in some appropriate manner, therefore, they had a pie social as dedicatory exercises. It is rumored that there was an odd pie left and that the fellows, including their instructor, had pitched quarters at a crack to see who should have the extra pie.

Professor Shorey will be remembered here from the fact that he delivered the Phi Beta Kappa address here a few years ago. He is well known to students of the classics as the author of several books and numerous magazine articles dealing with subjects related to his work.
Some of the electrical engineers made a raid into the sacred chambers of the "civils" a few days ago and carried off a pair of socks that had been taken as "booty" from some innocent freshman and hung up on a string with the curios.

YOST ON RULES REVISION.
Michigan Coach In Letter to Walter Camp Gives His Ideas as to Proposed Changes.
During vacation Coach Yost wrote a letter to Walter Camp of Vale, chairman of the football rules committee, expressing his views on the proposed changes in the rules. The most important suggestions made by the coach are as follows:
Make the distance ten yards, but allow four downs.
Allow five men back of the line of scrimmage.
Do not abolish the low tackle, but legislate against the double tackle.
Let the rules stand as at present, as far as roughing is concerned, but make the officials enforce them.
Have the officials named by a central appointing board.
Make the time of halves thirty minutes, instead of the present thirty-five minutes.—Michigan Daily.

POPULAR NEBRASKA COACH TO PRACTICE LAW.
Booth, of the Cornhuskers, after Six Years of Service, Resigns.
Walter C. Booth, who has coached the Nebraska football team for the past six seasons, and who has made a splendid record for himself as a constructive coach, has announced that he will not return next fall, assigning as a reason for his decision his intention to devote himself exclusively to the practice of law in New York City, where he is a member of a firm with excellent prospects. For the past two seasons it has been barely possible to persuade Mr. Booth to remain at Nebraska, and each year he has been induced to remain only after he had once announced that he would not do so. This year his answer seems to be final, however, and the athletic board seems to have decided to accept the inevitable and is now looking around for a good coach.

Great Educator Dead.
President Harper of. Chicago University, died last Wednesday. He had been ill for several months and it was known for some time that the malady from which he was suffering, would prove fatal. However, with the fortitude of a martyr he went about his daily duties and was constantly at work until the week preceding his death.
President Harper was one of the most noted men of the educational world and was the chief factor in the success of his great university. Through his efforts the endowment fund of Chicago has grown to the enormous amount of $20,000,000.
Knowing that death was imminent, the president made all arrangements for the funeral and one of his wishes was, that the University should not suspend school work except during the time of the funeral.

Here is the cheapest good gun yet made. By the omission of the take down feature we have been able to greatly reduce the cost of production and at the same time have kept the gun up to the famous high *Hurricane* standard of strength, safety and durability. Notice the clean simplicity of this gun. The workmanship and finish are perfect. The weight is only 7 pounds. The full cock barrel are especially bored for smokeless as well as black powder and so charmed that a 23 inch or 29 inch shell may be used. Several improvements in the operating grip make it a most reliable and best working gun in existence. We are glad to make it possible for every lover of guns and bird shooting to get his high grade repeating gun that guts to low a price.

VOLUME II.
DEBATE BAKER
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, JANUARY 17, 1906.
METHODISTS ACCEPT UNIVERSITY PROPOSALS.
The First Debate to Be Held in Lawrence=-Kansas Chooses the Question.
The secretary of the debating council received a letter yesterday from the debating council of Baker University, agreeing to debate with Kansas provided a two years' contract can be signed. They agree to hold the first debate in Lawrence if the second will go to Baldwin. An even division of the proceeds is contemplated. The Kansas debating council will not meet until tomorrow to pass upon the question but it is probable that the Methodist's proposals will meet with favor. Kansas submits the question while Baker has choice of sides. The question must be submitted before the 23rd of January.
"If a young man has the misfortune to be born outside the Mississippi valley, I should advise him to have his birthplace changed by act of congress," said Dr. Newell Dwight Hillis, of Boston, in chapel Monday. "There are great opportunities before the west, and especially to the strong man who will stay in the west and do great things, instead of yielding to the allurements of the wealthy seaboard cities. A name and a fame, that shall be world-wide, awaits the state that eliminates graft, greed, saloons, jails and poor houses from its society. This calls for great men and women, and I hope that this institution will continue to develop them until the end of time."
Dr. Hillis Speaks.
The Chancellor is Ill.
Chancellor Strong has been very ill at his home on Louisiana street since Saturday night. He returned from visiting the denominational colleges of the state with a severe cold. It has since developed into an attack of the "grip." He will probably not be in his office until next week.
Miss E. P. Leonard Dead.
Miss Elizabeth P. Leonard, professor of modern languages in the University from 1869 to 79, died in her home in Franklin, Connecticut, the last day of December. She was buried in North Hadley, Mass., January 2nd. Miss Hannah Oliver had a sketch of Miss Leonard's life in the last April number of the Graduate Magazine. She was a woman of rare personality and profoundly influenced the young people she came in contact with in her school work.
TRACK MEN AT WORK.
Twenty Men Out--May Have a Coach in Spring.
The track team came out in full force Tuesday evening for the first time since the holidays. Butler, who was elected as captain last fall, was present and coached the hurdlers and vaulters. He will be in school this spring but will take part in the inter-school meet only. Parker was out for the first time this year. He has no one to fear in the high jump except Carl Young. Eddy and Russell are the only new men in the jumps. Reed came out ready to try his shot put. He has the right spirit and with the proper amount of training will make the team. He has a chance at the record. Pringle and Putnam are still training faithfully on the shot and hammer. The following men also reported for work: Capt. Driscoll, McCoy, Wallace, pole vault and hurdles; Mitchell, Marshall and Eddy also for the hurdles; Luckey, Stryker, Pfeiffer, Chesbro and Cooper for the half; Bergen, Hovey. Pfeiffer and Priest for the mile and Barnard, McReynolds and Stagman for the two-mile run. Russell made 10 feet in the pole vault and is the best all-around athlete in the University. He came from Independence, Kas., but now lives at Lawrence. Manager Lansdon says that if the team works hard and develops good men in every line, a special coach may be hired.

FOOTBALL TO GO
HARVARD AUTHORITIES MAKE A STRINGENT RULING.
Rules Must Be Radically Changed Before Easterners will Again Play.
Considerable surprise was expressed throughout the country, when the board of overseerers of Harvard came out Monday with the statement, that football would be abolished at Cambridge, should the present rules be left intact by the Rules committee in session at New York at the present time.
In its report the board says that the game as played at the present time, tends to develop anything else but strong, honest men. They allege that the player, no matter how much of a gentleman, will lose control of himself in a football game and take advantage of his adversaries should opportunity offer.
Not only must the rules be changed, but changed radically, if Harvard plays next season.
At the present outlook, the game will not be changed as much as was anticipated, owing to the spreading of the sentiment that the brutal character of the great game is confined to small colleges and high schools from which most of the causalities have been reported. It is quite likely that a separate set of rules for high schools will be adopted.
With not much of a change of the rules, Harvard will stay out of the game, at least next season. The board of overseers is the highest authority, corresponding to our board of regents, but unlike the Kansas governing council, their decision is final and no appeal can be resorted to. From most reports, the hasty action of the board is receiving much condemnation from the students and alumni of the great institution. The disappointed student body point to the fact, that all schools which have been unsuccessful on the gridiron, are the only ones who desire to change the rules.

INDIANS BEATEN.
Basket Ball Team Gives Fine Exhibition in First Game on Home Court.
The 'Varsity basket ball team defeated the Chiloocco five Monday night in the first game on the home court by the score of 19 to 11. The Indians had just come from the East where they had tied the Armour Institute five and had given the strong Wheaton team a scare, allowing them to win by the narrow margin of a basket. The game was a struggle from the beginning. The work of Captain Miller in guarding his man was the feature of the game, MacArthur not being able to score. Siler did some pretty passing and Winnagle showed some improvement in team work, but Barlow was not lucky. He made only one free throw, although he had eight chances. Bartholomew did the best playing for the Indians, scoring four field goals around the slim form of Smith, the 'Varsity guard. However, Smith did fine work in breaking up the Indians' team work. The game was full of humorous happenings. Smith won the favor of the ladies by sitting on Bartholomew's head while the wily Indian was holding him from throwing.
The score at the end of the first half was 6 to 10, and the Indians expected to win. However, the 'Varsity settled down to business and in the first two minutes of play scored 6 points. This was the only time during the evening that the 'Varsity made a goal without letting the redskins handle the ball.

"Art" has played professional base ball on different teams over the state and has also had experience in coaching. With him at the head of the team more confidence will be added to that department of our athletics, and no doubt better results will be had in the base ball schedule this year.

MIDAS.
A PERMANENT STUDENT OF CHEMISTRY II.
One who studies the various departments of the engineering school and comes to know the sturdy young fellows who are preparing to go out into the world and get it into shape so that we can live a little faster is attracted to a certain young mining engineer called "Midas". "Midas" is known as the fellow of all fellows who has preeminently the faculty of adjusting himself to his life.
When the freshman first hears the name "Midas" uttered by some member of the apron brigade in the Chemistry building, he jumps at the conclusion that this king of gold must be either the store-keeper or else a tutor engaged in pulling the ill-prepared freshmen through at the usual Shylock's price. But the freshman is wrong. This twentieth century alchemist has won his name in the chemistry laboratory from the fact that everyuhing he touches turns not to gold, but to pieces—and "Midas" somehow digs up the gold to make good the breakages.
"Midas" has been paying laboratory fees for some time. The professor is one of the strong men of the institution, a man whose great heart throbs with such a love for these boys that he frequently retains more than half the class for another year. "Midas" has been the object of this clinging affection several times. For him chemistry has lost its novelty. When the freshmen come in in the fall to explore all the mysteries that lie in their path, "Midas" merely smiles knowingly: "That inspired look of yours will fade about quiz day Boy." He knows too much of the mysteries supplied with a lavish hand and is in no hurry to get to them. He feels a certain compassion for the "Arts" student who elects Chemistry 11 because he thinks it a clever thing to do, and when this same "Arts" from his seat in the back row, adds a postscript to everybody's recitation and asks carefully thought out questions at the close of an explanation, "Midas" merely yawns wearily and murmurs: "Lay up for yourselves treasures of nervous prostration if you want to, Deacon, back there in your amen corner." "Midas" himself usually employs the recitation period in plotting a curve to show graphically how near his grade is approaching to the flunk line. On quiz day the "Deacon" undoubtedly has the best of it. He writes volumes. "Midas" merely sits awestruck at the genius of the man who wrote the quiz. Yet the advantage is not all on one side. There are the traces of a long night's vigil on the face of the "Deacon". "Midas" hasn't troubled himself about it. Cramming is a thankless job at best, and if he should happen thereby to "kill a quiz" it would deceive the professor as to his real standing, and it is a comfort to know that he wouldn't stoop to that. In his opinion chemistry is a black art at best.
Do you picture "Midas" as despairing and downtrodden? No. For he has a philosophy equal to to the occasion. He has been through freshman rhetoric classes that lasted all through chapel; he knows all about some other freshman institutions; he knows as much as he cares to about what lies before him. He realizes the difficulties that be-

set the path of the engineer and does not offer battle. In chemical terms, he is in equilibrium with his life and his fate. This burden of unfinished and apparently unfinishable chemistry has not saddened "Midas." Perhaps he has never gone into it deeply enough to appreciate the difficulty of it. He looks on the sunny side of affairs even though he has to look at it through a pretty deep layer of something not so sunny. It was "Midas" who in his characteristic good-natured way proposed the yell:
"Red and blue, red and blue What's the matter with Chemistry II? Nothing at all, nothing at all, We'll take it again another fall!"

Studying Coal Mines.
Lawrence Brett and Frank Brock, senior engineers, spent their vacation in investigation of the causes and prevention of coal mine explosions. Part of the time was devoted to laboratory experiments, and about ten days were devoted to personal investigation of the coal mines of the Pittsburg district. They will work up the results of their investigations for their senior theses, and where the work is completed it will be combined with the report of the state survey.

Saturday work is becoming a feature in University life. Two years ago there was scarcely any work done in the Uuiversity buildings except in the shops Every Saturday during this term the shops have been crowded, the chemistry laboratories have been full of experimenters, the medical laboratories have been in constant use, the botany classes have kept Snow Hall aglow until six o'clock, and the draughtsmen are always busy on the third floor of Fraser Hall. If there is any school that keeps her students busy all the time it is Kansas University under the hour system.
Paul Wall's Father Dies.
Paul Wall, a sophmore of the Sigma Chi fraternity, was call-home Sunday morning on account of the death of his father, Judge T. B. Wall, of Witchita. Judge Wall was taken seriously ill about eight weeks ago with asthma and consumption and left for the Pacific coast in hopes of bettering his condition. He has held several judicial officies at Wichita and has been a prominent politician and attorney in southern Kansas. Paul will return and enter the Law school next term.
Prof. Paul Shorey, head of the Greek department in Chicago University, will lecture here Friday evening on, "The Pace that Killed Athens."

Athletes Light the Gas.
Willie Heston, the famous Michigan athlete, bewails Chicago's advance in the athletic world in the following interview taken from the Michigan Daily:
"Chicago gets the athletes; that's all there is to it. You've got to have the men to do the business and Michigan finds it mighty hard to compete with a school where scholarships to athletes are as easy to get as they are where Mr. Stagg holds forth. Free tuition means quite an inducement, and Michigan has nothing like this to offer. Then there are those gas lighting jobs at Chicago. Pretty sweet, eh, to get $60 a month for going around lighting gas jets a couple of hours a day. Some of the finest athletes in the world are lighting those gas jets, too."

Nine Dead From Hazing.
Nine deaths from hazing is the record of the colleges of America so far during this college year. The State of Kansas can point with pride to the State University. It has abolished all forms of class fights and has had no case of hazing in many years. The students of the University have brought this condition of affairs themselves to a great extent, influenced by the wise direction of Chancellor Frank Strong. The University has received many congratulatory messages, and every prominent speaker who has had the opportunity has expressed hearty approval of this advanced stand. It is doubtful if any other large school in America this year has been as free of rough and ungentlemanly conduct on the part of the students as the University of Kansas.
Booker T. Washington of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute has written the University of Kansas, requesting the names of colored students who are qualified teachers. There are thirty-four colored students in the University, distributed as follows: College 17; Engineers,5; Pharmacy, 5; Medicine,3; Law,2; Fine Arts,2.

VOLUME II.
WILL PLAY IOWA
NUMBER 32
BIG NINE TEAM ASKS FOR A GAME NEXT YEAR.
Manager Lansdon Is Assured a Good Schedule for the Coming Season.
The University will be pleased to know that Iowa will be on our football schedule next year. Manager Lansdon received a letter from the Iowa management Thursday asking for a date on our schedule, and their proposition will probably be accepted. It has been several years since Kansas has played one of the "big nine" and a trial of our strength with a team of some reputation will be welcomed by the sporting public.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, JANUARY 20, 1906.
Earlier in the season Michigan offered Kansas a date on her list of practice games but as the game would have to be played in Ann Arbor just preceding the Colorado struggle, the management wisely declined to consider their offer. However, Iowa is a different proposition. Not only is the distance much less, but the teams would be more on an equality. It is absurd to think of giving Michigan anything more than a good practice game, and the chances are that such a trip would be a loss financially. The contest will be held at Iowa City and will be one of their big games.
"PACE THAT KILLED ATHENS"
Professor Shorey's Lecture Well Attended.
Professor Paul Shorey of the University of Chicago lectured before a well filled house last night on "The Pace That Killed Athens". Prof. A. M. Wilcox of the Greek Department introduced the speaker. The real aim of the lecture was to show how much Athens accomplished in a short time from a very slight material basis. White germs of her greatness were to be seen in her early life her real greatness began after the Persian war when consciousness of her powers led to political freedom. It was during this period that the largest number of her great men lived. In her great poets, dramrtisis, and historians and their work we can see the life of their country reflected. Professor Shorey gave many translations of his own from these authors, especially from Aristophanes, the comic poet, to prove his statements. He pictured then the growth of Athens politically, showing her engaged in so many wars as she extended her empire, then showed her deplorable losses of men and treasure. He made the situation plain by an imaginary picture of Chicago and her neighbors under a similar regime.
KAPPA PARTY.
Second of the Spring Party Series Given Last Night.
The second spring party of the year was given by Kappa Kappa Gamma at Fraternal Aid Hall last night. Fully ninety couples enjoyed the happy evening. Newhouse's eleven piece orchestra furnished the music for the twenty dances. Nellie Russell and Amy Merstter gave out the programs which were plain white with a gold monogram on the front. Grace McKnight, Ada Cates, Addie Lander, Mayme Maher and Annie Allen stood in the receiving line and Maude Olander and Joseph Burkholder led the grand march. A delicious one course lunch of coffee, olives, pickles, chicken salad and sandwiches was served down stairs and up in the dancing hall pineapple and raspberry punch served to refresh the merry dancers. The out of town guests were: Mary Gray, Maidie Pioudfie, Gay Sheppard, Lillian Abraham, Maude Bond, Emma Vos, Ruth Gray, Geo. McOrew, Frank Bartlett, all from Kansas City; Claribelle Neylon, Paola; Josephine Riddle, Miss Nellis, Topeka; Josephine Keiser, Marguerite Morgan, and Miss Morgan, Minneapolis, Minn., Katherine Follet, Newton; Louise Cox, Chanute; Ethel Rowland, Ottawa.
CONDEMNS ELECTIVE SYSTEM.
Professor Shorey Thinks Students Have Too Much Freedom.
Prof Paul Shorey, head of the Greek department in Chicago University, scored the elective system and lecture course institutions in his chapel remarks Friday morning. He declared that when students were allowed so much latitude they avoided the exact sciences, and as far as possible, tended to courses of lecture institutions where they expected to be entertained. "We should demand a higher standard of knowledge of the classics," said Professor Shorey, "and that would mean a definite knowledge to precede the wider and more general lecture course. The reaction from this condition are bound to come, and we may expect a more definite knowledge to be required in the future."
Chancellor Strong was feeling better this morning, having had a good night's sleep. He has typhoid fever in a mild form and probably will not be entirely well for two weeks.
Chancellor Has Typhoid.
Basket Ball Scoring.
In adding up basket ball scores, goals count two points and free throws, one. All awarded points on fouls are then added in. For each foul, the opposing team gets a free throw.
A NEW DEAN
THE MEDICAL SCHOOL HERE HAS NEW HEAD.
Merwin Sudler Succeeds McClung as Dean of Medical School.
Merwin T. Sudler, a graduate of Johns Hopkins University, will succeed Professor C. E. McClung as dean of the Medical School here, about Feb. 6. Professor McClung has been acting dean since Dr. Williston left in 1901. He has never desired the office and for some time he has been wishing to be relieved of this added responsibility in order that he may give his whole attention to his work in the College.
Mr. Sudler is highly recommended as a proper man for the office of dean. After graduating from Johns Hopkins he was instructor in anatomy at Cornell until 1905 when he received an appointment on the hospital staff at "St. Mary's Free Hospital for Children" in New York. He was elected professor of anatomy in the University of Kansas last spring but had already accepted the appointment at St. Mary's and could not come here till February, 1906.
Dr. S. C. Emley, who instructed in anatomy this year, will instruct in bacteriology and pathology. The Medical School will be, in a measure, more distinct from the College than heretofore.
ENTERED K. U. FROM NEW YORK.
Remarkable Story of a Yonug Man's Determination.
Three weeks ago working about on the streets of New York city with but five cents in his pockets, today enrolled in the College course in Kansas University and working in the afternoon on the University campus and morning and nights tending a furnace is the recent and brief story of a young man's pursuit of an education. Harry Hibberd Kemp is 23 years old. He left the Empire City resolved to enter a Western College and stopped first at Chicago but owing to his dislike for the large city fixed his course for Lawrence.
Last Wednesday evening after dark he knocked at the door of Professor Carruth and claimed an acquaintanceship with him through his text book in German. Thursday morning was his first appearance on Mount Oread and he soon found Willis Folks and secured employment on the campus for his spare time and a place tending a furnace morning and evening to pay for a room.
He then enrolled as a special student in Horace's Odes, Ger-
lan, and English Literature. At thirteen years old young Kemp left home and at seventeen finished High School. Determined upon going around the world he left New York and as cabin boy worked his way to Australia. Next to Manila and across the Japan Sea into China he witnessed the armies of the nations march upon Pekin. Crossing the Pacific he landed at San Francisco, and working at odd jobs came through the southern part of the United States back to New York.
He then spent two years in college work at Mt. Hamden college, Massachusetts, and during vacation worked at East Aurora for Elbert Hubbard, of Roycrofter fame. Lately, enthused with the idea of a western education, he now proposes to graduate from K.U.
The "open season" for debaters is drawing near, and with the opening of the second term all the argumentative guns in the University will be hammering away on the interstate questions. The University council will submit the question for the Baker debate Monday. It will probably be in substance the same as the question for the Iowa debate—the establishment of a fiscal protectorate over the South American republics. The Council will take a final vote on the choice of sides of the Iowa question Monday. Missouri has not yet selected her side of the freight rate question submitted by the University council two weeks ago, but their decision is due in a few days according to the agreement.
Debating Questions Monday.
The try-outs will be conducted in the same manner as last year. Each literary society with representation in the debating council sends a squad of six men to the general squad. The men will discuss the questions before the faculty committee in a series of practice debates in which the squad will be reduced to about half the number of entries, and the members who will represent the University will be selected in a final try-out in the chapel to which the public will be admitted.
There are a number of experienced debaters in the University this year. Among them are Blood, Sheedy, Bender and Parker who are seniors but will stay out of the debates. R. O. Douglas and R. L. Douglas who were in the Missouri debate last year will not try for places. Chester Ramsey and B. A. Earhart who were on the Iowa team will be in the debates this year.
The K. U. barber shop has put in another chair. They didn't put it in that little addition at the north door either. The K. U. barber shop is certainly the most convenient thing that was ever established on Mt. Oread. Besides it gives two students profitable employment during their vacation periods.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1908
If the colleges that lose are the ones that would abolish football, Missouri ought to be heading the list.
It seems rather strange that the annual custom of giving a public reception to the football team has been eliminated this year. Not only has no reception been held, but no K's, as yet, have been distributed. As hard as the football man works for his alma mater, the latter ought to show its appreciation by at least a K and sweater.
The latest developments in the crusade against football prove beyond a doubt that it is no passing agitation but is prompted by serious motives. Whatever be the demerits of the game, and no one can deny that it has them, it has the quality of arousing more college spirit than any or all the other college sports. College spirit is a long leap toward a successful institution and should be cultivated. If football is to go, it will be some time before a worthy successor can be found.
Now that we have decided to have a debate with Baker the male population of K. U. should get its pugilistic tendencies under control so that when the Methodists come nothing will be done derogatory to the dignity of K. U. There is an inexplainable longing, way down in every K. U. man's heart, when he sees a Bakerite to steal his hat and roll him around in the dust awhile. This is probably a clannish or feudistic tendency that originated ages back when Baker was the first college in Kansas and beat K. U. at football. If you feel that desire to give the Methodists a good "walloping" a coming on, and think you can't restrain it, you go up to Lake View the day of the debate and stay until Baldwin has its normal population again. They will be our guests this year, save up your strength for the evil day, next year.
Do it now. The rates are on at Squires' Studio, 925 Mass.st.
MIDAS.
A PERMANENT STUDENT OF CHEMISTRY II.
(Continued from Wednesday.)
Perhaps in his bluer moments "Midas" realizes that after all the best place for a mining engineer is under ground, but he gives no sign. He appreciates the fact that this repetition of the same things all the time will grow monotonous and undermine his nervous system so he has adopted as his motto; "Cut—and let the chips fly where they willl!" and takes a vacation with all the coolness of desperation. He takes his misfortunes philosophically whether they be large or small. If his apparatus vanishes in the laboratory he consoles himself with the thought that there was something so hopelessly wrong with it that the other fellow couldn't possibly get any results with it anyway. If the thing explodes just before he gets a result after he has spent hours on it, he merely dodges the fragments and soliloquizes "Verily, a little chemistry is a dangerous thing". His courtesy is always up to the highest standard of the Chemistry Building. He always says "thank you" when he makes a purchase at the supply window even though the department has raised the price of corks every day in the week. Once he is known to have demurred at paying for quiz paper on the ground that the lowest criminal doesn't have to buy the rope that hangs him, but he was a fresman then and didn't understand the economic principles involved. Another time he perpetrated a raid on the store-room, secured all the labels with skull and crossbones that he could find and pasted them on the professor's hat, but then, most every fellow has some kind of a past.
He has gained at least one thing from his Chemistry. He knows how to make cheap fireworks that delight the hearts of all the small boys in the block, and his audience never thinks of the formula.
"Midas's" quiet hours are spent in trying to evolve an hypothesis as to the effect of twentieth century living on the death rate of profs and in calculating from this the possible time, when, under a new management that has not become attached to him, he can hope to "get through" Chemistry II.
Gave Coach a Watch.
iowa Breaks with Minnesota.
Last Thursday night the football boys gave Dr. Outland the most complete and as enjoyable a surprise as he ever experienced. Over a month ago the boys planned to get a watch for the popular coach, and chose Walter Stahl, Elmer Hill and Glen Millice as the committee to choose the watch. Last Thursday word was passed to the boys that the watch was to be presented that night at 8 o'clock in his office.—Washburn Review.
Iowa has severed athletic relations with Minnesota. The intolerant arrogance of Dr. Williams, the Minnesota coach, is assigned as the reason for this step.

They Face a Deficit.
Athletics in the University of Nebraska are in dire distress. The board of athletic control has to face the unusual condition of a deficit in the treasury at the end of the football season with all other sports still to come on the stage, none of which have ever turned out self-supporting. The way out of the quandary is far from clear. It seems to be a case of either abandoning athletics or of raising funds through some outside means. This is what a prominent member of the faculty told a Nebraskan reporter, and from the facts he seems to have arrived at a correct conclusion.—The Daily Nebraskan.

R. I. Safford, 05, formerly located at St.Joseph, Mo., may now be found practicing his profession in Ponca City, Okla.
C. W. West, '05, has been finally located in the Corner Drug Store, at Conway Springs, Kas.
G. D. Cochran, '03, is erecting a fine cement block drug store at Lewis, Kas.
The corresponding secretary has several enquiries for registered clerks, at good salaries, and would be pleased to put any member of the Pharmacy Alumni in communication with the parties.
The Ideal American.
Rev. T. S. Young, of the First Baptist church of Topeka, spoke in chapel a few minutes Thursday morning on "The Ideal American." "I have an idea," said he, "that the ideal which we all have, embodying our conception of a truly representative American is one of a man who does and dares great things but only those things that are worth while. Such men as Carnegie, Roosevelt, LaFollette, Folk, and the late Dr. Harper are of this type. I can wish for you nothing greater or better than that you should do as these men have done, and accomplish something that is worth while to the world."
The senior girls met Friday noon and decided to give a spread for the boys of the class in the near future. It will probably be held in the gymnasium and with the advent of the girls in politics the male members of '06 can consider themselves quite fortunate in getting invitations.

A Freshman Solved It.
A freshman has solved a problem. The other night as he sat at the second table in the library facing the door he noticed that the door when opened always admitted two people of opposite sex—an upperclassman and his lady love. On entering they usually separated, but between nine and ten a regular feature commenced. Some junior who had been inspecting the advertisements of McClure's magazine, without any visible sign would rise and at the same time a lady on the other side of the room near the encyclopedia book stacks would also rise. At the door they always happened to meet. When twenty-five such coincidences had happened the freshman, who had been busy for the past half hour watching the course of events, turned to his nearest companion and said, "Guess I know why they call this building Spooner's library."
Michigan Debates Chicago.
The University of Michigan met Chicago in debate Friday night on the question: "Resolved that a commission should be given power to fix railroad rates."
A letter was received from Hoffman, the 'Varsity's twirler, this week, saying that he was steadily improving from his attack of typhoid and hoped to be back by the middle of next term. His many friends will be glad of his return to school.

WASHBURN DEFEATED.
K. U. Wins by the Score 22 to 19. Washburn Was Confident.
K. U. defeated the Washburn basket ball team by the score of 22 to 19 on the Topeka skating rink Friday night. The 'Varsity started out to win from the first and the score stood 18 to 8 in their favor at the end of the first half. Washburn took a brace in the last half and scored 11 points to 4 by K. U. Barlow threw four free throws, making the only points scored in that half by K. U. The special feature of the game was the team work of the 'Varsity five and the good work of Barlow. Barlow is never a fancy player at home, but when he is called upon for an exhibition of the real game before strangers, he plays a consistent as well as a fast game. The "Rock Chalk" given by the boys after the game gave the impression that some of the rooters' club were pretent.
Washburn had advertised the game as a state championship contest, and the Washburn team played hard and in the last half roughly. They were able to make only five field goals during the entire game. The 'Varsity, on the other hand, were stiff and sore from the freshman game the night before, and was not in the best of condition.
Captain Miller has been handicapped by the lack of experienced men trying out for the team, but in all of the coming games he will be able to use new material. Allen, Bergen and Johnson, of the freshman team, are all strong men. Allen is billed for the forward position with Barlow. These men always play the game together, and are efficient parts of the basket ball machine.

Freshman Beat First Team.
The Freshman team met the 'Varsity on the basket ball court Thursday night and defeated them by the score of 37 to 25. The 'Varsity played this game for final practice before the Washburn game. Each man played a fairly good game but the team did not get together for more than a few minutes during the whole game. It was different with the freshmen, they knew that it was the last game that they would play together and they were a unit. Every pass was to a man in a better position. In the Baker game, which will be held here soon, all the freshmen will be eligible.

REPEATING SHOT GUN
NEW MODEL N917
Here is the cheapest good gun yet made. By the omission of the take down feature we have been able to greatly reduce the cost of production and at the same time have kept the gun up to the famous high Martin standard of strength, safety and durability. Notice the clean simplicity of the gun. The workmanship and finish are perfect. The weight is only 7 pounds. The full choke handle are especially bored for smokeless as well as black powder and so chambered that $2\frac{3}{4}$ inch or $2\frac{9}{16}$ inch shells may be used. Several improvements in the operating parts make it the easiest, most reliable and best working gun in existence. We are glad to make it possible for every lover of guns and bird shooting to get this high grade repeating shot gun so low a price.

Albert B. Cope, fellow in education, was operated on for appendicites at Dr.Jones'hospital Thursday. The operation was very successful and he is resting well.
Seniors, attention! Do it now. Have Squires make your picture before the big rush is on.
Remember, Squires is the only photographer who makes a specialty of students' pictures. When the students leave for the summer vacation he closes the studio until they return in the fall.
"Pete" Allen of the Kansas City Athletic Club's basket ball five has resigned his position as captain of the famous team. "Pete" is well known to University people and was one of the best athletes that ever represented Kansas. Not only was he a basketball ball star but a fine football player as well. At track work and baseball he was also far above the average.

THE NEW RULES
BIG NINE REPRESENTATIVES MAKE RULES.
No Professional Coach—No Large Gate Receipts—Play Only Three Years.
The representatives of the Big Nine in their meeting held in Chicago last week, proposed some sweeping changes in football. The changes are in the shape of resolutions and must be ratified by the respective institutions which they represent.
The resolutions in condensed form are given as follows;
1. Game as played at present must be abolished.
2. If the American Football committee, in session at the present time, does not change the rules, the "Big Nine" will make rules for themselves.
3. Football players must carry as much work as any one else.
4. Game to be limited to undergraduates.
5. Professional coach debarred. Some faculty member must do coaching.
6. Half year residence rule to be extended to one year.
7. Number of games limited to five for the season.
8. No training table for players.
9. Three years playing shall be the limit for any student.
10. Freshmen and second teams must play teams of their own institution.
Admission to games must not be over fifty cents.
NUMBER 33
HEAR NORDENSKJOLD.
The Famous Antarctic Explorer Lectures Saturday Night.
Dr. Otto Nordenskjöld, Professor of Geography at the University of Upsala, Sweden, will lecture on "Two Years amongst the Ice of the South Pole" in the University chapel Saturday evening, January 27. He is a nephew of the famous arctic explorer, Baron Adolph E. Nordenskjöld, whose remarkable voyages around Europe and Asia, making the so-called northeast passage, astonished the world.
Dr. Nordenskjöld himself first spent two years exploring the remote regions of South America, then on invitation of the government joined an expedition to East Greenland and penetrated to the interior of the then unknown Jameson's Land. In 1901 he commanded an expedition which was to explore that portion of the South Polar region lying south of America. It is with the experiences and discoveries of this expedition that this lecture deals. This lecture will be illustrated with views from photographs taken during the exploration of this region.
The January Magazine Is Out.
The Graduate Magazine will be out this week. The principal feature of this issue is an article by S. A. Riggs upon the career and character of Gen. John Fraser, the first Chancellor of the University. Mr. Riggs was a student under Gen. Fraser in Jefferson college, of Pennsylvania during the 50's and was very closely associated with him during his chancellorship. This number also contains a very interesting article by Professor Carruth on the athletic association and a lengthy article by the Registrar, Geo. O. Foster, in which the attendance of the University is compared with that of other universities and colleges.
Course in Botany Costs $2.50.
Fraser Hall for Track Work.
The botany instructors and students are busy binding their botany notes. Demonstrator Peace has made several thousand micro-photos for the use of the classes. Those are mounted on special paper and bound in covers printed especially for the purpose. Each student makes a book containing drawings and photos for referance. The paper used is the best linen and costs each student a dollar. The labriatory fees are $1.50. So when the student has passed his course in botany, he has a 500-page book, which cost him about $2.50.
On account of the lack of space for training the hurdlers and sprinters for Covenition Hall meet, the committees on buildings will be petitioned to allow men working for these events to use the sixty yard straightaway in Fraser Hall on nights when the building is not occupied. The work will be done under the direction of Dr. Naismith, if the hall can be secured.
Manager Lansdon has just completed the arrangement for all athletic contests that will be held with Washburn during the year '06. Basket ball will be played here on Jan. 3. The annual football game will be played in Topeka as in the past. Manager Lansdon raised the amount required from Washburn from $500 to $550 as our share of the gate receipts at Topeka.
Washburn to Pay $550.
Seniors should have their photographs for the Annual made at once. Please do not delay us by waiting.

THREE DEBATES
PRELIMINARY DEBATES SOON TO BE HELD.
Kansas Has Affirmative in Iowa and Missouri Debates. Baker Question Submitted.
The sides for the inter-state debates with Missouri and Iowa have been selected and the preliminary trials for the squads will begin as soon as practicable. The council placed the matter of the preliminaries in the hands of a committee consisting of C.A.Spencer, R.C McCormick and Fred Zook, and its report on the time and manner of conducting the trials will probably be made within a week.
Missouri has chosen the negative of the Missouri question, "Resolved, That Congress should grant power to a commission to fix and enforce railway rates." The University council notified Iowa yesterday of its choice of the affirmative of the Iowa question, "That the United States should establish a fiscal protectorate over any West Indian, Central or South American republic whenever it shall manifest a chronic failure to meet its foreign financial obligations."
The question which was submitted to Baker University yesterday is a modification of the Iowa question and reads: "Resolved, That the South American republics should be free to accept or reject the Monroe Doctrine." Baker has two weeks in which to make her choice of sides.
The Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. are making plans for the student volunteer convention which is to be held in Nashville, Tenn., from Feb. 28 to March 4, inclusive. The K. U. is allowed fifteen delegates. About 3,000 delegates are expected from 500 American colleges. Delegates from Europe will also be present.
Dr. Naismith has figured out the number of students that can be accommodated in the new gymnasium. He says that 300 persons will be able to engage in physical culture at the same time. This would make the capacity 500 for a single afternoon.
A new Sohmer grand piano has been placed in Fraser Hall, the former one not having proved satisfactory. This instrument was personally selected by Dean Skilton at the Sohmer warerooms on his recent visit to New York.
The third piano recital will be given on Tuesday, Feb. 27th, in Fraser Hall by Mary Hallock Greenwalt, whose playing last year showed her to be one of the finest artists who have ever visited the University.
HONOR FOR LAW STUDENT.
K. U. Man to Have Place on Program of the Bar Association.
For the encouragement of the students in the Law School of the University the State Bar Association offers a place on the program at its annual meeting at Topeka Jan. 30 and 31, for the best paper by a member of the Senior Law class on a legal topic assigned by the faculty. Two entries have thus far been made for the contest. J. C. Rubenthall, Law '95, of Russell, Kansas, has also been given a place on the program.
A Red-Headed Basket Ball Team.
The line up is: Johnson and Barlow, forwards; "Red" Bert, center; Cooper and Angney, guards.
The red-headed athletes of K. U. have organized a "Red-Headed" basket ball team. They claim that they are capable of defeating any other kind of a an aggregation in the University.
There is some talk among the fire-red four of substituting a "true red" for Angney, but he feels safe as there are only four of that kind in school.
Post-Exam. Jubilee.
The Y. W. bulletin board will tell you all about it. Underneath a poster of the Sunbonnet babies, is this notice;
"POST-EXAM, JUBILEE.
"It's goin' to be a Deestrick Schule this year. Everyboddy must bring a dinner buket with their lunch, an' they'll hav' more fun ef they dress like childurns. You better come long. Everyboddy what comes to skule here's invited, and the teachers too.
"Friday Nite's the time, at ate a'clock.
Basket Ball Team Beats Scrubs.
The 'Varsity basket ball team played the "Scrubs" Monday evening, defeating them by a score of 56 to 41. Allen played forward with Barlow and Johnson as guard with Milier.
Bergen was also tried out in the second half. The game was the fastest game of basket ball seen on the court this year.
An inter-class basket ball ball tournament will be held during the last three weeks in February. Every class team will meet three opposing teams. Two games will be held on every date, and the team winning the most games will be declared winner of the series.
Chancellor Strong.
The chancellor is getting along very nicely. His temperature is nearly down to normal, but he will not be on the hill for at least two weeks.
The Twenty-five Club will give its fourth dance next Saturday evening in F. A. A. Hall.

The University loses a large number of students at the close of the fall term. Many of them are freshmen who have made fair grades but who, on account of lack of money feel unable to continue their course. If you are one of these students, try every probable means of obtaining a place to work your way. Visit the Y. M. C. A. bureau of information, see the business men, get a place as night watchman in some undertaking establishment if necessary - do anything to earn your way honestly rather than give up your chances for university training.
The Kansan in its last issue called attention to the fact that no football reception had been given this year or any sweaters or K's bestowed. We have since been informed that this is through no fault of the Athletic Board or Manager Lansdon. The sweaters and K's are here ready for distribution when the boys return their football suits and pay their board at the training table. Only three out of twenty men have returned their suits and only thirteen out of nineteen have paid their board. There is only one way for the athletic board to settle the difficulty, give the men who have paid their board and returned their K's and sweaters and cut the others off for good.
Revised Rules of Football.
In case the American football committee fails to draft rules for football agreeable to the representatives of the "Big Nine," the following are suggested as covering the points that need reforming:
1. Only members of the permanent student body will be allowed to play on the football team.
2. Every football player must carry ten hours more work than the average student and two tardy marks shall disqualify him for the remainder of the season.
3. No professional coach shall be hired. The oldest lady member of the faculty shall give a half hour chalk talk (illustrating the plays) once a week.
4. Freshmen and second teams shall play games, only at night in their rooms just before retiring.
5. No gate admission shall be charged. But a collection to endow a home for broken down football players shall be taken after the game.
RULES ON THE FIELD.
1. Halves shall be over when any player's heart beats faster than 84 per minute. The referee need not discover the irregularity. The word of any spectator will be taken.
2. No tackling will be allowed, but the runner carrying the ball shall be downed when slapped on the back in a gentlemanly manner by an opponent.
3. In order to have a more open style of playing the side carrying the ball shall make the entire length of the gridiron in three downs.

Vesper Service.
The next Vesper Service will be held in the University chapel, Sunday next, at 4 P. M. The special musical feature of the service will be the rendering of Gaul's famous sacred cantata, "The Holy City." Professor Hubach has spent a great deal of work in getting the chorus in the best shape. Dean Skilton will preside at the organ and Miss Phipps will give us another beautiful postlude. Dr. F. A. Wilbur will give the address. Every student should come out for this service. The following is the musical program: Organ prelude, "Adoration from the Holy City," by Gaul; Lord's Prayer, Merbecke, arranged by Stainer; Venite by Woodward; In Excelsis by Teuner; Hymn 356, Smart; Anthem, "No Shadows Yonder;" Solo, quartette and chorus, from Gaul's Holy City; Solo and Choral, Sanctus, A New Heaven and a New Earth, from Gaul's Holy City; Nunc Dimittis, Gregorian; postlude, violin with organ, from The Holy City.
No Reporters in His Class.
If you are going to have your picture taken have Squires make it. Remember he was awarded the grand prize for the State of Kansas.
Professor G. H. Howison of the University of California refused to allow two reporters of the Daily Californian (the student publication) to enroll in his class in Psychology. The professor said that heretofore when he had admitted members of the Californian staff to his classes they had taken the liberty to publish some of his statements without his consent and he had decided to refuse them admittance after this.
You ought to have your senior pictures on a "K. U." mount. Squires is the only photographer who has them.
Professor Johnson, high school visitor from Kansas University, visited old friends in Emporia for a few hours last Wednesday. Professor Johnson was for several years, a teacher of history and economics in K. S. N., resigning on account of his health in 1898. After spending some time as principal of high school at Helena, Montana, he came back to Kansas and accepted the position he now occupies.
If Squires makes your picture it is sure to be good.

REPEATING SHOT GUN
NEW MODEL NO17
Here is the cheapest good gun yet made. By the omission of the take down feature we have been able to greatly reduce the cost of production and at the same time have kept the gun up to the famous high Martin standard of strength, safety and durability. Notice the clean simplicity of this gun. The workmanship and finish are perfect. The weight is only 7 pounds. The full choke barrels are especially bored for smokeless as well as black powder and so chambered that 23¼ inch or 29¾ inch shells may be used. Several improvements in the operating parts make it the easiest, most reliable and but working gun in existence. We are glad to make it possible for every lover of guns and bird shooting to get this high grade repeating shotgun at so low a price.

JUDGE GREEN SAYS THE "BIG NINE" ACTION IS ABSURD.
Kanses Would Make Rules of Her Own----To Have Western Association.
The general opinion among those prominent in athletic affairs at the University of Kansas is that the "Big Nine" is going too far in her proposed football reform. However, Kansas will be under no obligations to follow the Chicago conference. Judge Green said yesterday that he was in favor of forming a western association of the following schools that are outside of the "Big Nine": Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Oklahoma and Missouri. Judge Green also says: "The rules are almost as good as they can be gotten without a considerable elimination of the good points of the game. I am in favor of better officials who are not afraid to disqualify a man for an infraction of the rules. As to the open style of play more accidents have occurred on McCook from the so-called open play than the mass formations. The only casuality that ever happened on our field was caused by a tackle on a wide end run. A Drake University man was tackled so hard by a Kansas man that the heavy fall on the hard ground caused concussion of the brain from which the victim died a few hours later. The action of the "Big Nine" was uncalled for, and I hope the western colleges will pay no attention to their absurd changes."
Kansas stands for pure athletics and a strict enforcement of the rules, but the sentiment of the student body is strongly against such changes as will take all interest from the game.
KANSAS DAY BANQUET.
A Dozen K. U. Republicans Will Attend.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, JANUARY 27, 1906.
Ten or a dozen K. U. Republicans will attend the Republican Club Kansas Day banquet at Topeka Monday night. Among those who will go are: Chester Linebach, Ernest Disney, Henry Draper, J. W. Kayser, and a number of other prominent republican students in the law school. W. E. Broadie represents the University with the toast "Kansas."
Theta Party.
Kappa Alpha Theta entertained with their spring party last night. Over eighty couples attended. The music for the program of twenty dances was furnished by Kelly's ten piece orchestra from Kansas City.
Refreshments consisting of chicken salad, coffee, sandwiches and pickles were served when the program was half over.
The programs, plain white with gold monogram on the out side, were given out by Iva Spaulding and Helen Perkins. In the receiving line were Helen Adler, Hedwig Berger, Caroline Doubleday, Margaret Philbrook, Gertrude Reid, Mrs. Gray and Mrs. Abbott. Prof. Hodder and his wife led the grand march.
The out-of-town guests present were: Agnes Casebeer, Independence; Inez Grant, Miss Baldridge, Miss Brainbridge, Mrs. Laird, Mr. and Mrs. Berger, Homer Berger, Misses Grace and Julia Berger, Ray Rych and Betty Ingram from Kansas City, Kitty Harrison Mrs. Dewey, Mrs. Tuttle from Topeka.
A Mock Heroic.
The race was over. The hero laid a hand that trembled with mingled relief and physical exhaustion on his aching brow to dispel the mist that was gathering before his eyes. Then he turned to his faithful steed, "Corbizon, my faithful, we have eluded their vigilance at every turn through these last days of mingled despair and weariness; we have kept long night vigils together to outwit them; we have passed through the ordeal of today in safety—due to you alone. It is over and we are saved, my Corbizon." He sat upright and drew a long breath. With a last look of gratitude and affection he crammed the pony into his deepest pocket and left the class room.
No Grades This Term.
Registrar Foster said today that under no circumstances would any grades be issued from the office this term. In the case of a double flunk students will be notified, but in any other case the student must wait until spring to learn his standing.
The next number of the University News Bulletin will be devoted to the work of the High School Visitor.
K'S AWARDED.
Football Men Get Sweaters as Fast as Accounts are Settled.
Manager Lansdon cut the "Gordian Knot" this morning by giving out the football sweaters awarded by the Athletic Association. It was planned to have a meeting and formally award the great "K's," but the men did not all turn in their suits as soon as they should. This made the delay so great that it was finally thought best to give them their sweaters as soon as they turned in and settled their board bills. Donald, Rouse and Angney were the first to get their "K" sweaters this morning. The sweaters are the best that money can buy. They are red with the usual blue "K." Manager Lansdon said: "It was hoped that the men would be able to turn in their suits early so that a mass meeting could be held and the "K's" awarded in the usual formal manner. This arrangement was made so that the men would get the benefit of their sweaters immediately."
"Job" White is as proud of his as a boy with his first pair of suspenders. His roommate says he doubts if he will pull it off at night when he goes to bed.
Exchange Concert.
The K. U. Mandolin club, in addition to several extensive tours this season, has scheduled exchange concerts with Missouri University Glee club, which is to appear in Fraser Hall Tuesday, February 6. This is one of the best glee clubs in the country, and will no doubt give a highly interesting program.
The K. U. Mandolin club's Missouri tour will extend from February 20 to 25 inclusive, and will include Columbia, Mexico, Hannibal, and Quincy, Illinois.
NUMBER 34
Prof. Barber Entertains.
Prof. M. F. Barber of the Botany department entertained the Graduate Club at his home Friday night. A feature of the meeting was a paper by the professor himself on "Anti Toxins."
Some inconvenience to students was caused by the closing of the Oread Cafe a part of this week on account of the death of Mrs. Beatty's brother.
M. S. U. RETIRES MCLEAN.
Proved That the Missouri Coach Hired Player.
John F. McLean, athletic coach of M. S. U., has been retired as it was proven that he hired Ackerson, the star fullback of the Missouri team in '04. The coach had such a hold on the students that practically the whole football, track and baseball teams have declared their intention of going on a strike unless Hetherington is also deposed. Hetherington has a position similar to that which Dr. Naismith holds here. He has always stood for pure athletics but the student body has not stood with him as the student body here stands by the Chancellor and the athletic board. McLean is a good track coach, but he never developed anything like a successful football team. The candidates of the track team here are much interested in the outcome of the situation at M. S. U.
WE CAN WIN.
Kansas Never Had Better Prospects for a Track Team.
The track men worked out this afternoon from 2:30 to 6 o'clock. The distance men went down on McCook and ran a few laps. The sprinters contented themselves with the gymnasium. Much has been said of the prospects of beating Missouri in the Convention Hall meet. The facts of the case are that we have the material to develop a strong track team when men can train out on McCook fiield, but at present, the only events in which the new men can work out are the pole vault and high jump. We must have new men in the sprints, and unless the weather is warm enough to hold tryouts on McCook field, there will be no means of finding out the abilities of the new men. Meyers has ten second speed but will not be able to try out on account of his knee. Wm. Miller, Finch and Commons have not yet appeared to work out. If we intend to defeat the crack Missouri team, it is time to begin in earnest.
Vesper Service.
The usual monthly vesper service will be held tomorrow at 4 p. m. in the chapel. An excellent musical program will be rendered and Dr. Wilber will speak.

The laws will be lonesome now the baby incubator case is decided.
Honest now, did you ever find the late magazine you wanted over at the library?
If we were a football coach of the "big nine"we would begin to look for another job.
Don't some of the professors run this quiz business into the ground? We know of one freshman that had eighteen examinations this last week. A wooden man couldn't stand such an ordeal as that without showing considerable wear and tear. Some professors act as though they thought the keeping of their positions depended on the length, hardness and number of their examinations.
Buy of the men down town who support the University and its enterprises. Buy of the men who advertise in the Lawyer, The Kansan and other University publications, not simply because they advertise in these mediums of student life, but because they are the men who are the true friends of the students. The man who advertises the heaviest is the man who, if a student gets in trouble will head a movement to get him out of it, while the man who hardly gives a civil answer to an advertising solicitor is the man who, when no students are present, talks about the license given college men and the baneful effects of students upon a town. Trade with the friends of the University; they deserve your support.
15 YEARS AGO.
Items from the Kansan of 1890 About People Now Famous.
The first number of the University Kansan was issued Sept. 16, 1890. Its editor was J. Frank Craig, now cashier of a bank in South McAllister, Indian Territory. Herbert Hadley, attorney general of Missouri, was one of the associate editors. The following are
Chas. W. Gleed went to Texas Monday.
some of the locals taken from the file of 1890:
Prof. Blackmar's class did not recite Monday.
Prof. Wilcox has the influenza.
The Phi Psi sleighing party had a breakdown.
Chapel attendance is small and getting smaller.
Prof. Dunlap gave the freshmen a talk Wednesday on literary societies.
Miss Watson agains holds tyrannical sway over the library and reading room.
Prof. Blackmar failed to meet his classes Wednesday.
The following extract from a letter received last summer from Prof. F. H. Snow, one of the party encamped in Colorado, will undoubtedly prove interesting reading: "We all attended a campfire at Sprague's ranch last Friday night. Our K. U. boys and girls entertained the eastern tourists by singing the University songs under W. S. Franklin's leadership. After the campfire we had a dance. It was a notable dance. The participants were: Misses Franklin and Heming, of Iowa, Jennie and Helen Sutliff and Messrs. Hadley, Kellogg, Brewster, Funston and W. S. Franklin. It was a killing sight (and sound) to watch Hadley and Funston attempt the light fantastic with heavy hob-nailed nailed shoes. The landlady hastily hunted up some slippers and Hadley was in his element at once, but Funston's slippers were so large they kept coming off, when the landlady came to the rescue by producing a pair of her own, garters to fasten them on. But one of these broke almost immediately and Funston had to give it up.

Bergen and Siler are working with all their might for the central position. Siler is the better man on the start, but Bergen passes much faster. Johnson and Winnagle are struggling to win a place opposite Miller as guard. Wm. Miller and Collins are trying for substitute forwards. The team will soon be equipped with new suits, of the regulation style. Baker will play here Thursday night. It will be the only chance for K. U. students to see the team play before they leave for the eastern trip.

Lawrence Biggs Dead.
Lawrence J. Biggs died of appendicitis at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. P. Biggs, in North Lawrence yesterday morning, at five o'clock. He was a Junior Electrical Engineer. He graduated from Lawrence High School in 1903 and entered the University in the fall of 1903. He was 22 years of age and was a large, strong looking young man. Lawrence was a hard working student and well liked by his fellows. After working in the shops a few days last fall he began to be irregular in his attendance on account of ill health but did not know what was the matter with him until a short time ago. As has been the case with many another student, his ill health seems to have been the result of insufficient exercise. He was a member of the Bismark Workman lodge, No. 174. His funeral was held this afternoon under the auspices of the lodge.

Two members of the Board of Regents of Michigan have openly declared themselves in favor of making Fielding H. Yost a member of the faculty of the University. "Professor Yost sounds good to me," said Regent Arthur Hill a couple of days ago. There is no doubt about the pleasantness of the sound. It would no doubt sound good to more than one athletic enthusiast in the middle west.

Out at the University of California they designate flunking by the term "cinching." A great howl has been raised because Professor Moses of the science department has "cinched" one hundred students out of a class of two hundred.

REPEATING SHOT GUN
NEW MODEL N917
Here is the cheapest good gun yet made. By the omission of the take down feature we have been able to greatly reduce the cost of production and at the same time have kept the gun up to the famous high Martin standard of strength, safety and durability. Notice the clean simplicity of this gun. The workmanship and finish are perfect. The weight is only 7 pounds. The full choke ketels are especially bored for smokeleas as well as black powder and so chambered that 23 inch or 29 inch shells may be used. Several improvements in the operating routine make it the easiest, most reliable and best working gun in existence. We are gled to make it possible for every lover of guns and Fid sheet to get this high grade repeating shotgun at so low a price.

Not Enough Magazines.
When fifteen hundred students try to read from one magazine copy the result is that one student, or professor, reads and the other fourteen hundred and ninety-nine go without. If there were several copies of some of the leading magazines in the library, the students who read, and they are many, would then have opportunity to do so.

PICK DEBATERS
PRELIMINARIES BEGIN MON-DAY.
Societies to Choose Representatives This Week—Baker Working Hard.
In order to get the debating squads at active work the Debating Council has instructed the literary societies of the University to select their representatives not later than Monday of next week. Each society is allowed to send six men to the general squad.
The first of the series of preliminaries will be held Monday before Dr. Burdick in his class room in Green Hall at 12:15. Dr. Burdick will divide the squad into three sections, and will hear one section on Monday, one on Tuesday and one on Wednesday at 12:15. Professor Becker, the second judge, will meet all the contestants at 4:30 on Tuesday, in the lecture room of Green Hall. Prof. Hodder will meet all the debaters at 4:30 Wednesday in room 14, Frazer Hall.
The Baker question will be debated in the preliminaries, and each speaker will be given five minutes on whichever side of the question he chooses. The question is: "Resolved: That the South Americans should be free to accept or reject the Monroe Doctrine." The men who win in these preliminaries will constitute the squad from which the teams will be finally selected.
Whereas, It has pleased the Almighty in his divine wisdom to take from among us our loved and esteemed class-mate, Lawrence J. Biggs, be it
The preliminary debates this year have been entirely under the control of a committee chosen by the council. The members are C.A. Spencer, R.C McCormick and Fred Zook, and they were given authority to draft regulations for the preliminaries and to arrange for judges for all the trial debates. The council is rushing the preparations as much as possible, as the debates will occur in about ten weeks, and it is desired to allow as much time as possible for preparation after the three teams are chosen.
Resolved, That in his death we have lost a true friend and loyal class-mate and the parents a noble and dutiful son; and be it further
The Baker debaters are hard at work on the Baker-Kansas question and are going to make the fight of their lives to win. A Mr. Justice who was at the University Monday, ostensibly to confer with the council about the meaning of the question, spent several hours in the library collecting material on the subject. Baker must submit her choice of sides within a week.
Resolutions of Sympathy.
Resolved, That we, the Junior
class of the University of Kansas, extend our deepest and most heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved family in their sore affliction; and be it also
Resolved, That these resolutions be entered upon the records of the class, that a copy be sent to the parents, and that a copy be sent to the Kansan for publication.

The First Woman in K. U.
The funeral of Mrs. D. H. Robinson was held at the family home at 623 Ohio street, Monday afternoon. Mrs. Robinson was the wife of the late Professor D. H. Robinson, who with Professor Snow constituted the first faculty of the University. She has the distinction of being the first girl in the Universjty ond the only member of the first junior class.
You have always failed to get a good picture? Shelley makes it a point to see that you are satisfied before he will finish a picture. That has won the favor and business he now has.
She left behind her three sons, Ernest, George and Dave, and one daughter, Harriet; all graduates of the University. The services were conducted by Dr. Wilber, principal of the Westminster House; and the body was laid away in the Oak Hill Cemetery. Mrs. Robinson has one son, David Robinson, and a nephew, Bert Beach, yet in school.
Herbert S. Hadley, the Attorney General of Missouri, her nephew, attended the funeral.

Two Other University Graduates on Kansas Day Banquet Program.
The 45th birthday of Kansas was celebrated at Topeka Monday night by the annual Kansas Day Banquet. All day swarms of politicians from remote parts of the state gathered at the State House, and before night about 700 enthusiastic Kansans crowded the corridors of the capitol building.
Wilbur E. Broadie, of Winfield, Kansas, and now a senior law of Kansas University, brought forth the greatest demonstration of the evening when he eloquently referred to Governor Hoch with Theodore Roosevelt and Senator LaFol-

lette as leaders of the Republican party today, which represents the highest ideals of American citizenship. The demonstration interrupted the speaker until Governor Hoch arose and bowed an acknowledgment of the ovation.
Thos. E. Wagstaff, of Independence, a graduate of the University and brother of the Lawrence merchant, spoke on "The Present." John B. Wood, of the law class of 04, responded to the toast "The Republican Overflow."
Mr. Broadie's speech upon the toast "Kansas" was, in part, as follows: "Kansas has frequently been referred to as an enigma. It is needless to say that I fully agree with that proposition this evening. In whatever formula considered, Kansas has generally been the X of the equation. She has run the gamut of praise and blame for half a century. Her people, too, have been alternately the subjects of encomiums and curses. To them have been applied various epithets and nicknames, the most popular and abiding of which, be-

The Missouri Glee Club in Chapel. February 6th.
The University of Missouri Glee Club, which will appear in Frazer Hall next Tuesday evening Feb. 6, is one of the best college glee clubs in this part part of the country. It is the only musical organization at the University of Missouri that makes a tour. It is now on its sixth annual tour and has met with great success. The club this year is the best in the history of the school. Their program is full of new funny features as well as the best college glee club songs. The Missouri boys have a reputation of introducing more musical novelties and clever originalities into their program than any other Western musical organization. The club is well balanced and the voices are all far above the college glee club class. The club has been practicing daily since Thanksgiving under the direction of Prof. Fritz Krull, professor of music at the University of Missouri. Prof. Krull is a musician and leader of high culture and wide experience. He comes to the University almost directly from a lone career in Europe where he was active as conductor and singer in both grand and comic opera. Mr. Krull is a graduate of the Royal Academy of Music in Berlin. As a composer he has met with much genuine success. Mr. Krull is the leading soloist of the program. The Zruez Zeitung, the leading newspaper of Berlin, Germany, said of Mr. Krull, "He has not alone a big dramatic voice, but a sweet one for love songs and lullabys."
The Missouri glee club carries 21 men and comes in a special car. The Lawrence date is the only one in Kansas. The club comes here from a concert at Kansas City.
Tickets, reserved seats, for the concert will be placed on sale at Dick Bros. drug store Thursday morning.
Glee Club Concert.
The only concert to be given this year by the University Glee Club, will be that rendered Thursday night in Fraser Hall at 8:15 o'clock. Professor C. A. Preyer will on that evening make his first public appearance since his return from California. The following is the program:

Three K. U. Graduates were on the Kansas day program at Topeka. It won't be many years until the man in politics, who isn't a K. U. man, will be an exception.
The leading article in the Graduate Magazine for this month is an article by Professor W. H. Carruth on the football situation. Prof. Carruth five years ago pointed out some of the defects of football as it was played, and might well be called the pioneer in the movement for football reform, that is now sweeping the country.
The editor of the Chicago Maroon and Michigan Daily are engaged in as bitter a newspaper quarrel as that of the Leavenworth Times and Topeka Capital. The Michigan Daily is so unused to defeat that it cannot take it like a man, while the Chicago Maroon likes to Lord it just a trifle since last Thanksgiving.
The reports from the examinations just past indicate a loss of some of the best track athletes in the University. Two of last year's stars now have a "flunk" against them, while others have "conditions" and "not examined" to contend with. Some of the most promising freshmen have fallen by the wayside. It is now the duty of all loyal University men to give
all the more support to those men that are left.
An Elaborate College Function.
The Yale "Prom" occurred last week. In respect to magnificence, number of participants and general extravagance no former junior festivities bear any comparison. The Yale Literary Magazine raises the question of the true relation of such social life to the Yale spirit of democracy. The junior festivities of which the prom is the crowning feature, are expensive indeed. With the utmost economy compatible with a respectable showing, one junior spent about $150. Of this sum, $30 was spent in flowers and $40 on carriages.

The First Kiss.
The greatest surprise to a girl who gets kissed the first time is there is no taste to it.—Pocahontas (Ark.) Times.
No taste to it? Well, by the hen feathers on Cupid's dart, but the Times man must be color blind in the palate. They tell us, those who have tried it, that it tastes like the double distilled essence of honey spread thick on a pumpkin pie. Away back in the dim joyful years ago before we lost our teeth and our cinch on the beauty prize, the prettiest girl in all the world told us with her eyes that it felt like a covey of quail flying out of each ear and ended with a sensation like a flock of angels pouring molasses down one's back.-Birmingham Age-Herald.

Kansans Meet in New York.
At the Kansas Day banquet in New York City the famous "Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk" was given at the conclusion of Congressman Bowersock's speech. Mr. Bowersock, who left Washington long enough to be with the New York Kansans and whom the New York Sun designated as "the long haired Kansan," said in his toast that the Pilgrim Fathers would never have remained at Plymouth, if they had not been too seasick to journey on to Kansas.
Rocks Fall Through Roof.
Victor Murdock and Dr. Canfield were also speakers. Greetings were exchanged with the Kansas Day Club at Topeka.
The Third Annual Inter-Scholastic Track Meet under the auspices of the University will be held on McCook field on Friday, April 20th, at 1 p.m. An invitation will be extended to all the accredited schools of the University. All winners of points will be awarded medals. There will also be cups for the schools scoring largest number of points. The events of the program will be fourteen in number: One hundred yards dash, 200 yards dash, 440 yards run, one-half mile run, mile run, pole vault, running broad jump, 120 yard hurdles, 220 yard hurdles, putting 12 pound shot, throwing 12 pound hammer, hurling the discus, and a one mile relay race.
In the excavating work for the new gymnasium, the workmen set off their blasts every evening at 5 o'clock. The blast on Monday evening was rather disastrous. One rock fell through the roof of the engine room of Fowler shops, making a hole large enough for a man to go through. Another rock fell through the roof of the Chemistry building, penetrating not only the roof but also the attic floor. The damage in both cases was repaired immediately.
Miss Margaret Philbrook, of Kansas City, has returned to school and will graduate this spring. Miss Philbrook finished the College in three years and one semester.

THE LONG WEARING MONEYBAK TRADE MARK. Patented Selvage Silks. SATISFACTION OR MONEY BACK.
Why Moneybak Silks are Long Wearing.
Silk is the strongest known fiber. It is only when loaded with chemicals or improperly woven that silk loses much of its original
strength.
THE WOMAN IN THE GOWN.
But not all pure silks are strong and long-wearing. Much depends on the knowledge put into their making. In MONEYBAK Taffeta, for instance, there are 96 double threads crossing the warp in every inch.
A greater number of threads would crowd the fabric and make it stiff. Less threads would not give the cloth sufficient body to hold its shape.
Naturally, these fabrics give the longest wear because they are dyed and woven in the only manner in which the silk fibers can retain their original strength.
Examine a piece of MONEYBAK at our silk counter and observe its close, even weave and deep, rich luster.
Draw it through your fingers and note its soft, firm texture or "peach" feel.
Try to tear it and you will understand
why MONEYBAK has withstood remarkable tests of strength and the reason for its giving long wear

cause the most ridiculous, is the term "Jayhawker." W. Y. Morgan is not the first Kansan to receive this novel appellation.
"It has been applied indiscriminately to the people of Kansas for many years, though why we should be called jayhawker rather than hawkerjays or turkey gobblers is difficult to understand. John J. Ingalls predicted that the Audobon of the twentieth century, as he compiled a history of Kansas birds, would vainly search the "ornithological biographies" for any allusion to the "jayhawk" and would perhaps finally conclude that it was a freak of nature, an illicit hybrid of the atmosphere, a cross between the egg-sucking jay and the rapacious hawk, or else he would decide that it was the mythical production of a prehistoric brain and related only to the fabled phoenix or the dodo.
"Right here it seems to me that no violence will be done my theme if I refer briefly to the part of the Republican party in the state's upbuilding, for the Republican party is decidedly the biggest thing in Kansas.
"Founded upon eternal principles of wisdom and justice and led by such men as Theodore Roosevelt, Robert M. LaFollette and our own Governor Hoch of Kansas, the Republican party today represents the highest ideals of American citizenship. Well may Kansas, on this her natal day, pledge increased devotion to such a party. Under its beneficent rule Kansas will become greater and grander than ever before. Her harvests will be more bountiful, her statesmen more illustrious, her citizens more intelligent and prosperous. Gentlemen, I believe in Kansas. I am proud of her history. I have no misgivings as to her future. You know it was said in ancient days that to be a Roman was greater than to be a king. But we can say today that to be an American citizen is far greater than to have been emperor of Rome, and of all Americans the most fortunate is he who makes his home beneath the bending skies of the picturesque prairies of Kansas."

REPEATING SHOT GUN
NEW MODEL N917
Here is the cheapest good gun yet made. By the omission of the take down feature we have been able to greatly reduce the cost of production and at the same time have kept the gun up to the famous high Marlin standard of strength, safety and durability. Notice the clean simplicity of this gun. The workmanship and finish are perfect. The weight is only 7 pounds. The full choke hatch are especially bored for smokeless as well as black powder and so chambered that 2 3/4 inch or 2 5/8 inch shells may be used. Several improvements in the operating parts make it the easiest, most reliable and best working gun in existence. We are glad to make it possible for every lover of guns and loding to get this high grade repeating shotgun at so low a price.
