The professor said "that there were two ways of gathering information, conference with the wise and from the store-house of information books. He said he desired to repeat what every man had said who has spoken of books, and which Bacon has said, perhaps, better than anybody else. "History maketh me wise, poets witty," etc.

Perhaps the most interesting game of ball ever played in Lawrence occurred on Wednesday afternoon, between the Universities and Johnson Slavin's Minstrel Troup.

About 300 people witnessed the game. In the last half of the fourth inning Long struck the ball a side lick, rolling it up the bat and peeling the skin off over his eye. In the first half of the sixth inning Hickey made a grand stand' catch in the center and the Sigma Chi. Certainly, then, it will not be very hard for the fraternity combination to keep control of the paper if they choose. Do you think they will 6hose? If you don't the campaign.

As we say the Courier has always been open to any ne who wished to take an interest in it. The majority of the shares out may be under the control of two fraternities as is urged, but certainly a majority of its capital stock is not. Anyone can have shares who will pay for them, be he frat man or be he barb.

If the work on the Courier has been done chiefly by the members of two fraternities, it has been be Now we trust you can see the plan At "Washburn college it is considered a serious breach of discipline if a young man talks to a young lady more than five minutes at any one time.

He was something of a heretic about novels, the professor admitted, and maintained their usefulness to the literary man. It acts upon his brain much as alum does at the city water works. Alu gathers together all the impurities and carry it to the bottom flues, the speaker explained, the novel, in proportion as it is good field and put out the side.

In the first inning Morrissey scored a run for the Minstrels, and Natas, Crawford and Cannon went out and Watson died on third. Hogeboom and Harvey made two runs for the Universities in the latter half of the same inning. In the second the Minstrels went out in one, two, three order, and in the third Morris tallying one for K. S. U.

The fourth resulted in a goose egg for the Minstrels, but Smith got in a run for the home nine. In the fifth, Morrissey ar.d Schelling (who, as every K. S.

The He-porter says: "It is certainly not to the credit of some of our students that Dr. Mc Vicar felt the necessity of referring to the practice of spitting tobacco juice upon the floors in the halls and stairways. That it was the result of thoughtlessness on the part of those who did it we feel assured, and yet when we consider that the young ladies were obliged to wade through these minature lakes, it seems as if such thoughtlessness is inexcusable." was looked upon as an impossible venture, when none others than those now interested would touch its stock.
