GRAND OPENING
IMMENSE CROWD HEARS RECITAL INITIAL NIGHT.
Visitors from All Over Kansas in Lawrence.—Music Is of the Best.—Last Concert Tonight.
The first concert of the May Music Festival was given Friday evening in F. A. A.Hall by Mr. Edward Strong, Madame Maconda, and Mr. Anton Hekking. The house was packed by students and visitors from all over Kansas and the audience was an appreciative one.
The music rendered was as fine as the musicians are famous. Mr. Strong possesses a wonderful tenor voice and his singing delighted the audience by its melodious simplicity.
Madame Maconda with her powerful soprano fully demonstrated her famous ability. Her songs are brilliant creations of melody, beauty, and strength. She sang in French, German, and English.
Mr. Hekking maintained in every respect his reputation as a world famous violoncellist. He appeared three times and each time was enced again and again by enthusiastic hearers. Professor Preyer acted as accompanist.
The second concert was given this afternoon at 2:30 by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, directed by the noted German composer, Alexander von Fielditz, with Miss Elaine de Sellem, contralto; Mr. Frederick Martin, bass, and Mr. Carl Preyer, pianist, as soloists. Dean Skilton's "Mt. Oread Overture" was rendered.
This third concert is to be
given this evening by the Symphony Orchestra, soloists, and the festival chorus.

The College Jeweler
Every student knows men whose position he would like to fill when he is ready. How many of them spend three months of every summer in idleness or in work outside of their chosen professions? If you are ambitious, if you are not absolutely forced to earn money, if your health is good, can you spend the six weeks from June 6 to July 17 to better advantage than in the Summer Session? You will have two full months of vacation afterwards, from July 18 to September 18.
The Summer Session.
A Catalogue may be obtained at the Registrar's Office.

OUGHT TO EXONORATE ROSS.
Kansas Hermit Thinks University Should Honor Ex-Senator.
"I want the students of the University to pass a resolution commending Senator Ross for voting against the impeachment of Andrew Johnson," said General Hugh Cameron when he heard of the death of Ross. "It is only fitting that the students of the University who are familiar with history should start this movement to put the Ex-Senator in the proper light before the world and perhaps some day erect a monument to him," said the old hermit.

BOUGHTON'S
1025 Massachusetts St.
The members of the faculty and the class formed in a circle, and James D. Bowersock lighted a long stemmed clay pipe filled with tobacco, took a few whiffs and passed it on to his neighbor. Professor Dyche smoked like a hunter at a camp fire. Chancellor Snow held the pipe in one corner of his mouth and blew a stream of smoke from the other. The ladies of the faculty took dainty whiffs. The ceremony was watched with interest and amusement.
The main building was next saluted. C. P. Chapman of White Cloud delivered an oration on the class vine. An ivy was then planted by the wall, each member throwing in a shovelful of dirt.
SMOKED THE PEACE PIPE.
Old Custom Is No More—Dr. Snow Was a Smoker in '91.
The class of '91 was one of the first classes to do away with the formal class day, substituting a good time instead. The Kansas City Star in speaking of the frolic says in part, "To the music of a drum the dignified seniors marched to Snow Hall, where they gave their class yell: 'Rah! Rah! Rah! Johnny get your gun! Rock chalk! Jayhawk! Class of Ninety-one!"
