The new conservatory orchestra, which will bo called Tho Philhar monic, was organized last Thurs day evening, and promises to be the largest and most artistic or chestra that has yet beon formed in tho university or city. Mr. llagonow is tho conductor, and it is expected that several concerts will be given by them before tho season is over, 'V Phis in no way ctl'octs the regu lar meeting of the university or chestra, which still meets on Thurs days, but it is intended to unite tho musical forces of tho city in ono organization, and have both the conservatory and university or chestras Avork in harmony Avith each other.

No ono dreamed of the j i i .i i. . i . iiruiir uiiu, mniiu no raised on ine team's return from Kansas. When the Nehkaskan appeared Saturday evening with the account of tho Kansas game, ultoul two hundred boys Avonl through a coat-tail pa rade, rang tho chapel bell, built a bon-liro, and yolled themselves hoarse. On receiving the score of the Ottawa game, Monday even ing, tho enthusiasm Avas increased, everybody Avanted to give the boys a royal entertainment on their re turn Tuesday evening. Tho shortness of the time pre vented any elaborate preparations being made. Tuesday -morning, instead of chapel exercises, a mass meeting of tho students was held in the Armory. Tho Chancellor made a short talk on athletics in general. Ho said now Avas tho tunc to take tho tide at its full and givo athletics a boom in every line, not only foot ball and base ball, but tennis, lacrosse and golf. Aftor a few remarks on professionalism, the Chancellor suggested that avo moot tho team at tho train, escort them through tho city to the Arm ory, where tho girls and tho mem bers of tho faculty and ladies Avould receive them. To sec just how much veal'-rafhuRinsir. thero really Avas, three mon Avore ap pointed to stand at the door and receive contributions. Everybody gave a little, oven the young ladies, and to tho supriso of every one $!);. SO was raised. This will purchase SAvealors, suits, and stock ings, and send the team to Omaha in tine stylo. Tho afternoon was spent in pre paring for the reception. At sev en o'clock, a coach decorated Avith scarlot and cream, and drawn by a hundred boys, the band, Buck statf's steam Avhistlc, and soA'cral hundred yelling students, proceed ed to tho M. P.' depot. As soon as tho train arriA'cd, the boys Avero carried on the shoulders of a hun dred shouting students and depos ited on the top of tho coach. As for tho boys thcmsclA'os, they did not quite understand the thing. They rolled out of tho passenger coach in a dazed sort of Avay, upon a sea of heads and shoulders. Without ceremony they Avere piled upon tho tally-ho, which soon be gan to move, preceded by tho howl ing throng. When they had some what recovered, they pinched each other to see if thoy Avero aAvake, and full' realizing that the cir cumstances Avero not a fanciful cor ation, they burst forth in tho fol- lOAVing moiomus strain, kk We ro the bo from Nebraska our coachers camo from Omaha how avo did beat OttaAva Avlmt'll avo do to IoAva. Doavii to O street tho yelling mass of SOOboys procecded,amid tho roar of cannon from thocampuj. Such a demonstration has never been seon boforo in Lincoln. The streets Avoro full of spectators, Avondoring at tho enthasiasm shown and tho immense throng of students. At tho Armory tho faculty and ladies, togethor Avith long lines of the girls, Avero eagerly aAvaiting tho arrival of tho mob. The band entered first, followed by tho mem bers of tho team carried on tho shoulders of tho enthusiasts. After numerous yells and tossing of the toam, tho boys Avero called to tlio Slatform amid deafening shouts, no by ono they Avero called on to toll "Iioav thoy did it." Flippin's voice Avas cracked and husky, but his countenance fairly beamed with appreciation. He was followed by Horn, Yont, and coach Crawford. Tho conditions of their voices and the noise in tho room prevented many from hearing, but all know what was said and applauded every sentence. Kven the faculty and ladies vent up and shook liands Avith the boys, congratulating (hem on their success. After a few more yolls and congratulations, the partici pants separated for their respective homes. This event will bo long remem bered in university circles. Many who never know who tho foot bail men Avoro, became more enthusias tic for athletics than some of the old standbys. Such meetings will stimulate more col lego spirit than anything else. They should bo en couraged and made a permanent thing. Dolians To-night. The first special program of the Delian Society will be given in the ohapol this evening. It will be a musicale and no pains have been spared to make it ono of the best over given by that society. Tho following is the program: PART I. Piano Duet Millard Miss Stevens and Gentry of the Nebraska Conservatory of Music. Piano Solo Miss liena Kcod Ballad Frn Diavolo Mrs. Louisa Davis. Cornet Solo Mr. Wood Smith Vocal Duct Misses McDill and Johnson Selection Ideal Mandolin Club . PART II.

Tho annual Thanksgiving feeds of the Palladian and Delian So cieties Avill take placo Tuesday evening. Tho Palladians Avill hold theirs, as usual, in their hall. Miss Ilattie Hardin Avill entertain the Dolians at hor homo on Seventeenth and 11 streets. These "feeds" are certainly very pleasant atl'airs and servo a double purpose in furnishing an enjoyable social time and supplying the va cancy left by the boarding houses. Battalion Notes. It is noticed that the list of thoso who are absent from drill is not nearly so large as it Avas accustomed to bo last year. This is owing to tho more military manner in Avliich the battalion is being conducted this year. It is the intention of the lieutenant to enforce strict mil itary discipline, as far as possible, and every opportunity to do this is taken a(hrantago of. Broke His Finger. Gardner is iioav carrying his hand in a sling, as a consequenco of having Tackled Flippin Wednesday afternoon. His middle finger Avas broke but it'is thought it Avill heal all right. Notwithstanding his in jmy, ho avjis out Thursday even ing "giving the boys somo prac tice." Y. M. C. A. Lecture Course.

This will bo fol lowed at 4- p.m. by an address on "Missions" hv Mr 11 T Piflrin The music Avill bo by tlio iioav Y. m. u a. quartette, consisting ot Messrs. Evans. Oberlies. Hildrnv.b. and Sherman. HOW IT WAS DONE Monday's Gamo at Ottawa Dosorlbod In Dotall. PROFESSIONALS OUTPLAYED Tho Formor Bnkor Tonm Flnnlly SuooumbB Aftor Two Yonrn nncl n Half. The Kansas trip of our foot ball team was the most successful in tho history of the university. Not con tent with defeating K.' U. to tho tune of 12 to i, Clio next Monday wo did up Ottawa in tho contest of the season, by tho small scoro of (5 to 0. Last year avo played tho Baker team a tio game, the ...oro )q'ux into Ki, andif you remem ber, it Avas one of 'the hardest fought battles, and at tho same time tho prettiest exhibition of sci entific foot ball that had been played in this city up to that time. Tho Ottawa team has seven uf tho old Baker men on it (it is con sidered the saiuo team), and is in much better shape this year than the Baker team Avas last year. It had not been beaten for two years and a half, until last Monday, Avhon it ran up against a snag. At LaAvrence we Avero advised not to play the Ottawa team, as thoy wore considered the "tough est lot of sluggers that overplayed on a gridiron," and then, too, tho K. U. men said that thero Avas not the slightest chance of our Avinning tho game, A good number of LaAvrence men Avont doAvn to Otta wa to sec the game, as they Avanted to see Flippin play against "Ugly" Taylor. -- -Tho Avcathor-AVHS almost perfect, with just a suggestion of a Kansas breeze from the south. The grounds Avere marked out on the natural prairie. Around tho ropes stood about ,")()( enthusiasts, and outside of these paced a line of sentinels of the Ottawa cadets. The teams lined up as folloAvs: NEEHASKA. OTTAAVA. Thorp K. e. i,...Picrson. Dorn, capt...ii. t. S...Utz. Jones n. o. s...Moon. Hamming.... a ..Dcridson. Wilson l. G.it ...Griffith. Oury l. t. u...Furror. Whipple.... l. e. it... Bedell. Crawford.... Q. ...Allen. Flippin e. u. it... Taylor, capt. Yont it. n. l... Potior. Thomas t. ...Toomoy. Dobson, (Ottawa), referee; Sweeney, (U. of N.) umpire; Lieut. Smith. (Baker), linesman. For the second half Dobson and SAveeney changed places. It Avas decided to play twonty-fivo minute halves. Ottawa Avon tho toss an took the south goal, Avith a slight advantage in tho Avind and lay of the ground. Whipple starts the ball Avith a tAvenly-live yard kick-off, it Avas caught by Piorson, and ho Avas doAvncd in his tracks. Potter car ries the ball around the right end for three yards; on the next play OltaAway looses Iavo yards, and then Toomoy punts for forty-five yards. Thorp is sent around tho left end on the criss-cross for seven yards; Dern and Flippin carry it thirteen yards, and Oury smashes around the right end for ten yards, then Thomas makes three yards, Ouiy Iavo, Yont nine, Dern eight, Oury eight, Flippin four, and then OttaAva braces up and bikes tho ball on doAvns. Otunva only gains ono yard, Avhon Nebraska takes tho ball aAvay from them on doAvns. Then Flippin, Oury, and Dern a(hranco tho ball to within three yards of OttaAva's goal line. Then Jones makes two yards, and Thomas bucks across tho lino, but is pushed back, then Flippin is given tho ball, and ho carries it over tho lino for a touch doAvn. Continued on 4th pago. A h srm
