Got Him Right.
Right here, good folk, in the padd- ed cell in the man who invented the College Yell; A pitiful sight as you can see, and a doleful wreck of a man is he. He tears his hair with a Rah-Rah-Rah and rends the air with a Siss-Broom-Ah, and he mumbles and jumbles and screams and cries; see his swelling throat and his blood- shot eyes. All day he yells and all night he yowls, and up from his throat come fearful growls as though he remembered where the first of his College Yells rent the air. He grins at you with a vacant eye and thinks you're a brother Pi Chi Si; he makes a grin that the brothers know and waits to see if it's really so; then he thinks you are, and his great lungs swell with a rush of air for the old- time yell, and his cheeks puff out and his mouth swings wide and a rush of sound from the far inside of his mighty chest strikes on the ear and your head beats fast with a dreadful fear; but you need not run from the frightful noise, for he's only one of our Rah-Rah boys .- Saturday Eve- ning Post.

FRESHMAN "COMET-PARTY."
Watched for Comet While Awaiting Report of Prohibition Contest. Wednesday evening about 9 o'clock a band of freshmen gathered at the baseball bleachers on the campus to watch for the comet, and wait for news of the prohibition contest.
The comet, however, did not put in an appearance and also failed to send regrets, so the evening was spent in playing games and waiting for the news from the contest.
The celestial dignitary having re- fused to honor the occasion, the watchers had recourse to strong drink (water flavored with coffee), and to assuage their disappointment partook of refreshments consisting of pickles and sandwiches.
The morning was spent in telling stories around a camp-fire, while awaiting news of the contest. Prof. Nichols, Eva Stephenson and George Collett were easily the stars of the occasion.
After receiving the news part of the class went home to breakfast, and the rest went to attend German class as usual.

DENVER UNIVERSITY "WET."
+ Students Insult Ex-Senator Wright While Making Prohibition Talk.
Recently Hon. Seaborn Wright, of Atlanta, Georgia, an ex-senator, lead- er of the democratic party in the south, and chief among the prohibi- tion advocates of that section, spoke on the saloon problem in the Univer- sity of Denver, Colorado. During his speech in chapel, many of the stu- dents made noises, and shuffled their feet, and immediately after chapel a contingent of the student body col- lected in the hall, before Wright had departed, and yelled for "Wet Den- ver."
Denver University was considerably besmirched recently in the Lindsay expose, "The Beast and the Jungle," in Everybody's Magazine. Its chan- cellor, Mr. H. A. Buchtel, was gover- nor of Colorado, a few years ago, and his administration is said to have been a very "wet" one. The Denver papers reported that a grand jubilee was held in the tenderloin district im- mediately following the victory of Buchtel. It has been practically im- possible for the Inter-Collegiate Pro- hibition Association, or any other re- form organization, to break into the institution, even though it is a lead- ing Methodist school.
The indications are that the gang which insulted the ex-senator are in the ascendancy at Denver University, since the Clarion, the University pa- per, states that the most of those who joined in the insult are pretty

PLANS FOR LECTURE COURSE.
Successful Management and Loyal Support Makes Improvement Possible.
The management of the lecture course of the Young People's Union proposes to give the public the bene- fit of the prosperity that has come to it through a generous patronage. The matter was taken up at a meeting of the committee held at the Baptist church.
The report of the treasurer showed the profits of the last lecture course to be $130, to be added to the amount on hand, which is $315. It was there- fore decided to increase the number of the attractions in the course to seven, without any increase in the price; the tickets will be $1 as usual, The expense of the seven-attraction season this year will be $800. The committee has engaged the following attractions :
Chicago Glee Club, a male quartet, classed for quality with the Dunbars and Whitney Bros. They come in October.
Tyrolean Alpine Singers, eight in number. Middle of November.

THE LITERARY SOCIETIES.
Miscellaneous Programs, the Olym- pians Elect,, Philals Nominate Officers for Next Semester.
The program of the collegiate divi- sion of the Olympian literary society last Monday evening was opened with a paper by Pearl Jennison in which she discussed comets, princi- pally Halley's comet. This was fol- lowed by a reading by Etta Stan- nard, after which Genevieve Rock '09, delighted the society with a couple of piano nuumbers. May Wynne then discussed Rapid Transit by Belt Con- venances, this being followed by the final number on the program-a musi- cal selection by a mixed quartette composed of Leslie Rice Erma Black, Bernice Heath, and Albert Miller.
After the program a business ses- sion was held at which officers for the ensuing semester were elected as follows: President,
Marcus 'Clem- mons; vice-president, Laura Wood; secretary, George Collett; critic,
Amos Childears; ; pianist, Erma
Black; chorister, Chester Roberts; chaplain, Albert Miller; sergeant-at- arms, David Stallard.
Following this session an adjourn- ed joint session of the two divisions of the society was held for the pur- pose of electing trustees for the next
year. Those chosen from the collegi- ate division were Marcus Clemmons, Jesse Elder, and Frank Jennings; those from the academic division, Edna Umstott and Theodore Schrei- ner.
The academic division of the Olym- pian society last Saturday evening aft- er a piano solo by Edna Scoville and a reading by Will Zimmerman, enjoy- ed a most interesting talk on Life in England, by Mrs. F. S. Stockford.
·Mrs. Stockford is a most interest- ing speaker, and, having only within recent years come to America, she is able to tell of conditions in England as they exist today.
After the program officers for the next semester were nominated by bal- lot.
Tonight the Olympian program will be given over to senior Academic ora- tions. Monday the collegiate divi- sion wil entertain the high school Seniors.
On account of the stormy weather Monday night, the Philals had rather
an impromptu program, which never- theless was very much enjoyed. Mil- dred Brown played a piano solo, Car- roll Smith followed with a paper en- titled "Uncle Sam in Blunderland," which proved to be a review of the antiquated methods of bookkeeping used by the government. Leland Jenks read a paper on "Woman's Na- tional Game," the article being an in- teresting expose of the evils of bar- gain-hunting. Arthur Yates then gave an exceedingly instructive and up-to-date review of political condi- tions in our country. The program concluded with a vocal solo by Lena Scheuffler.
The program of the Philal division of the academic division of the Philal society last Saturday evening was on Alaska, and each number was given by a new member, who had never been on the program before.
The Philal program tonight will consist of the Senior academic ora- tions, and Monday night the collegiate division will give a special Senior program.
The Philal society held a called meeting Tuesday at 12:20 to nomi- nate officers for next semester.
