We have received the Setiilum, from Lansing, Mich. II js a neat paper but the matter contained is not particularly striking. The Ihireau ami Platform has been received. It is a paper devoted to securing dates for eminent divines like Rev. Bill Nye, Riv. Eli Perkins and other gentlemen to lecture ,ln ' citics throughout the country. The September number of the Muhlenberg contains many features. The editorial dcpaituicnt is good. An improve ment would be made by filling the last page with original matter instead of the worm-eaten chestnuts that arc found the r The Pulse, published at Grinnell, la., has been received. Tt contains a two-page love story similar to those printed on the patent side of country newspapers. Its editors can never hope to elevate the newspaper profession by running such trash. One or two departments arc excellent. The Notre Dame Scholastic is at hand. As a paper con taining good fatherly advice to the kindergartens connected with that institution it is a great success, but as a real live college paper it is a dismal failure. Let it be said to the credit of the students that the students are not responsible for its publication. The Kansas Univcrsit) Review publishes a "pledge" in its September number which is interesting even to a pcison at this distance from the scene. It is an agreement on the part of the lady fraternity members not to initiate, pledge or in vite any girl to join their fraternities until she has been in attendance at school for three months. It look as though even sorority gets to be too much of a good thing once in a while. How strange! The Washburn Argo has arrived. We arc glad to note that it is to be made a semi-monthly instead of a monthly. The local columns are well hilled with news of interest to Washburn students. The business manager, however, should be bounced indiscriminately. Any man who will let advertisers bulldoze him into running their display advertise ments in with the leading matter has no business in the capacity of business manager. Our Brother in Black" K the subject of an interesting article in the Athena-urn, published at West Virginia state univeisily. The language is somewhat faulty and some of the figures arc a little strained. But the essay is a discussion of a live subject, a. step which should be encouraged. The writer favors the separating of the negro from the white and his removal to a section which shall be formed fiom parts of Texas and Louisiana. '1 here they are to live and govern themselves as a state and(have their congicssional rcpresen tatiou as other states. Matleis arc becoming more complicated than ever at Lawrence, Kansas. During the greater part of last year a bitter factional fight occupied the attention of the students. Each faction had a paper, the Courier and Times respectively, Shortly before Commencement steps were taken to conciliate the two elements and it was thought the attempt was success ful. At any rate a paper from that institution was received here which contained a vivid description of the pow-wow which was held, and assuring outsiders that the conflict was ended. Eaily that week the University A'ansan was received at this office. It contained an editorial stating that the Times and Courier had been consolidated and that in the future the A'ansan would take the place of those two papcr. Later in the week, however, a Courier, bearing the date of September 20, arrived. It is the same paper as of old. If the students at Lawrence conduct funerals and bury the hatchet, why don't they bury it so deep that the snag end of the handle can't come out again? The rest of the hatchet is expected daily.
