The Ncbroskan will be glad to prlii L any contribution rela tive to a general university subject, but the name must accompany all mich. when one left the train, at the homo station, "some of the gentlemen with big chibs Invited us out on the plat, form," the writer explains. Plicn they threw snow balls and clods into the windows that were open and ended by putting a rock through one of tho window panes." Kansas college stu. dents seem to be learning well of tholr legislative friends who, only n 1'ew years ago, attained so much fame by bomlKmllng the capltol building at Topeka. Address all communication to tho Nebraska u, University of Inc-braska. The university is so fortunate, this yvar, as to have in prospect two an. minis, the Senior clnss book and the flfuh volume of the Sombrero. TJiOhe in charge of both nre apparently very active and the indications arc that both will be thoroughly representative and creditable volumes. A kindly rccep. tion should be necorded them, for they nre enterprises well worthy the sup. port of every one. The local oratorical contest will 'be held in the chapel next Friday night. This Is a really important event and merits the hearty support of every student. It is important because it is at this tlnu that the university's representative to the stnte contest will be chosen. It is important thnt we should have an especially strong man this year because the winner of tflic state contest will represent Nebraska in the intern to vcoivt est to be held in Lincoln this year. Do not fall to make your plans so thnt you enn be present next Friday evening to encourage those who are striving for oratorical (honors. A IHtlp more hard work on the part of some of those, who nre interested In n thirties, would not be amiss. The debt standing agninst tho athletic board will not rnlse Itself, nor will stu. dents be likely to hunt up some caper person, with whom to record a sub. scription. Something should be done. If n mass meeting is not feasible, at least an organized canvass of the stu. dents should be made. Let twenty young men, who are rustlers be got. ten together, with some one as lend, ing spirit among the twenty, and that little debt can be raised In n week. The Nebrnsknn will not believe there aro not patriotic students enough, willing to give fin cents or one dollar each, to pay off this apparently everlasting debt. Harvard University hns established n system of retiring allowances for those professors, who have reached a certain age in the service of the col. lege. This is certainly a step in the right direction. It is only justice to thc-c, who liave spent the lxjst years of their lives in the service of an lnti tution, and usually most unselfishly, tint their old age should be provided for. Men of such abilities ennnot well nlVord to run the risk of some day V. ing left with their families unprovld. ed for, when had they turned their at. tention to business, they could have accumulated a fortune, perhaps. It is to be hoped thnt other institutions will find it possible to follow the ex. ample of Harvard. SCHOOL OF MUSIC. (Truce lleynolds and Joinv Martin have accepted an invitation to sing at an entertainment in Peru next week. ilohn Randolph read a apcr before the Folk Lore society on "Negro Songs and Traditions," at its last meeting. The society is a newly organized itf. fair but will soon be united with the national society of that mimic. Dean lOdgrou is the leader nuid it promises to be a success. The stringed quartet has returned from the Black Hills and reports a great success. Tho people were much ! interested In music and have a high opinion of the work in the school or music. In one or two places standing room room was at a premium. The lllec club also which is the pride of most universities was heard wlt'h much pleasure on Charter day. In many of the eastern Institutions it la encouraged and maintained by tho funds from Hie alumni and other friends of the university, while hare it lias received no support except such (is has been secured from the members themselves or from the director of the School of Music. It Is a remarkable fact that two of the six or seven greatest pianist in tli? world have visited Lincoln! hlssea son. Madam Furinic ltloomilcld Zclsler whom the world of music has feted and cheered with deafening applause for years was here about a month ago, and not long ago Teresa Carreno came, who for the past twenty years lias been in the forefront of pianists of the world and who still retains her iofty place as one of tnc greatest in. I terpreters of compositions of the ! masters who has ever lived. Surely Lincoln should be proud of this fact and it is evidence that it is fast becom. ing a musical center. Y. M. C. A. OPENING.

The Vidctte.lle. porter of February has the following: "Members of the literary societies have been much excited over a charge of plagiarism on one of the orations in the contest. It is a grave charge and it Is to be hoped that it is not true. The unpleasantness began when a couple of members of the executive committee refused to allow the mat. ter to be submitted to the President according to the rules of the Const!. tutlon. Hut rather than have the suu. ject Inld before the student body, the committee has finally re considered the subject. This seems the only satis, factory thing to do, for It gives the accused an opportunity of clearing bimsclf. This is the first time that such a charge has been made in many years, and we hope, for the sake of the man and for the university, that a verdict of "not guilty" may be ren. dercd." Kansas has had her state oratorlcil content and hns chosen Northrop of the Knnsns Yesleyan University 1o represent her in the interstate con. test, which is to be held in Lincoln In the spring. The Kansas State Univer. sity took third plnce, while Baker Uin. versity ranked second. According 10 the Kansas Unlvcis'ty Weekly th.T was rivalry of the most atrocious sort It Is usually expected that men, who play foot ball, will come out of hanl games with some bruises. But usually the spectators are safe. From this Kansas oratorical contest, howevet one mnn, not a contestant, returned with "a deep gash in his bend." Tin Kansas University is said to have "fought a good fight ngnlnst the combined hosts of Methodists from B. U. and Bnptlsts from 0. N. nsslsted by bootblncks, policemen, draymen ind the city of Ottawa." Two delegations returned home on a same train and Phi Kappa is making arrangements to entertain the district council of tlieir general fraternity during the spring vacation. Delegates from the following schools will be present: University of Iowa, University of KaiiMis, Leland fitundford. University of Minnesotn, University of Wisconsin and Belolt College of Wisconsin.
