Fashionable Millinery at S. W. liar ney's, O street. Special prices to students for furniture Hardy's, 10th street. The Student takes occasion to rise and remark that Spring is here.

Tutor Little amused himself last week shooting (at) ducks down near Ashland. Room to rent furnished or tin furn ished. Inquire n. w. corner It and 9th. For pure tresh made candy call at the Candy Kitchen, 12th street, Little's new block. Miss CoraErskine visited Chicago and her old home, Mcndota, 111., during the vacation. The last meetings of the societies before the recess were booming ones. A new departure. Messrs. Loree, Cox, and Stralton, all members of fcJ0, were visiting Lincoln last week. It pays to buy all your boots, shoes and slippers of 0. W. Webster, 0 street, Acad, emy of Music. Why did some of the Palladian young men cut the second preliminary debate? Afraid, probably. Sludonls will find everything they need in the way of stationery and text books at Fox & Slruve's. The moat ovogant line of stiff hats that was ever seen in Nebraska are at the Phoenix Clothing Hull. Foot.bnll and boxing matches in the upper halls have been vetoed by the "opaque satolile," George McLean. The foot-ball ground lias got itself into shape by dint of much digging nnd spad. ing on the part of thu foouballist.s. For tardiness at recitation or absence from chapel exorcises the mark shall be three. littles on the Bulletin, Board. Dave Mercer was complimented very highly by being placed upon the program to answer a toast at the last annual ban quet of the lnw alumni of Michigan University. Miss Myra Smith will be absent from the University until next year. Her bright face will be missed by more than one. "We are glad to learn that Miss Minnie Codding has leturned and will graduate with 'Sil. This addition is a welcome one. The days approach when the ambitious Prep would fain climb in the tower, were it not for those terrible, padlocked doors. Wonder if the smoking rule will be as strictly enforced as those in regaid to at tending Chapel and frequenting saloons! D. L. Clark betook himself to the wilds of Boone county and spent the week in the bosom of his family, or words to that effect. All the apparatus in the University is being used in the veiy complete exper iments exhibited before the Junior Phil osophy class. It. N. Piper left for the Republican vul. ley last week, not expecting to return. His next move will be in the direction of a theological seminary. The Studkxt oilice has taken unto itself a diminutive printing press of the gonna amateur. The new an ival gives us great tone in a typographical way. AVhy do not the students help us out in contributions to this paper? We shall always be glad to receive and publish articles written by those in the Univer sity. Our local has not occupied himself chasing items for this issue to any alarm, iug extent. He has been rusticating in St. Louis. Quite a pun-ishment for that city. Miss Kale McCartney and her cousin Miss McCoy, or Nebraska Oily, have been' visiting in Lincoln during the recess. Miss McCartney was a student here laM year. The brooms which Mr. Frnzer made and presented to the Palladian ladies for broom drill arc little beauties. They were kept by the ones who used them. Mr. Fnr.er is a brick. A. J. Calvert has gone to a point in the north western corner of Colorado to en. gage in his chosen calling, the ministry. A host of friends in Lincoln and the Uni versity bid him God-spccd. The lightning rods .vhich are supposed to protect the building should receive a little attention. A majority bave no ground connection, and in that condition can hardly be considered safe. To "crib," as we understand it, is not to use a pony or translation, as explained in'our last letter from Ann Arbor, but to mark translated words and sentences on the edges of the texi-book. Is it not so? "Is this infant-ry or gal-very drill?" said an umpudent Freshman, sticking his head into Palladian hull while the girls were exercising their brooms. They opened a heavy heartillery fire on him and he was carried out. More improvements in the library. New cases are now being placed in posi tion, which will 1111 all the vacant spaces on the walls. This indispensible depart incut of our institution is making a rapid and healthy growth. Target practice will be resumed at once by the gallant cadets. The bulwark of pine boards built last fall to act as a s rt of buck-Mop for the balls was stolen dur ing the winter, but a new one of earth has been thrown up and all is in readiness for the spring campaign. Two vacancies in the Palladian com mencement class have occurred. B. B. Davis resigned, from lark of time to pre pare, anil Miss Kate Jones was summoned away not to return. Mr. Ralph "Weston and Miss Mary Campbell have been chosen to fill the vacant places. The class in elementary botany tnis semester numbers twenty-live or thirty industrious workers who, as soon as they have finished the elementary part, will devote their energies to collecting and classifying tlowers. Field work will prob ably begin after the spring recess. Miss Kate Jones started for her home in California on Wednesday, March 22nd, called by the serious illness of her mother. She arrived at her journey's end in safety and rejoiced to find the sick one out of danger. Her friends will be sorry to learn that she will not return to the Uni versity this year The manner in whichl our alumni sup port this paper is simply astonishing. At least six of the forty or more who claim the University as their alma mater are subscribers! It strikes us that we bave the most grateful and enterprising alumni of any institution on the face of the earth. What excellent talent we have for a theatrical performance in the college! "We should like to see a drama produced here with Miss Clara Parks, Miss Josie Chapman, Miss Kale Jones and some others sustaining leading parts. There are also many gentlemen who have talent in that way. George and his energetic assistants have busied themselves during the recess im proving the campus. The walks have received a much needed coating of cinders and neatly prepared flower beds grace their borders. No excuse for tramping your No. IPs all over the grounds now. The walks are navigable and pedestrians should use them. EM
