UNIVERSITY MEN MET.
Entertained at Their Quarterly
Meeting by President MeIdrim.

Entertained at Their Quarterly
Meeting by President MeIdrim.
The University Club held its quar-
terly meeting last night at the home
of it's President, Hon. Peter w. Mel
drim. About thirty members were
present, and an enjoyable evening was
spent. After the business had been
transacted the club was entertained by
Col. Meldrim.
1t was decided to hold the next meet
ing of the club. the occasion of its an
nual dinner, on Friday. April "a, at the
De Soto. The regular day for the cele-
bration is April %, but owing to the
fact that that date falls on Saturday,
and that the functions, always highly
enjoyable, extend into the wee sma
hours, it was deemed advisable to have
the entertainment on the day previous.
The question of suitable quarters for
the club engaged the attention of tine
meeting for some length. The club
has been extended the use of several
rooms, and it is not thought that it
will be without a rendezvous for any
length Of time. Nothing definite was
determined but the committee APP
pointed at the last meeting to select a
location was continued.
The university men have heretofore
met at the Hussars Club, the quarters
used jointly by the Hibernian Society
and the st. Andrews Society. AS
result of a difference between the so
cieties and the University Club it de-
cided to withdraw from the rooms in
the future. Capt. w. w. Gordon, Jr.,
president Of the Hussars Club, ex-
tended to the university men the use
of the rooms of the club at any time
they desired to meet there.
Six new members were elected. The
club has grown rapidly for several
years, and is now the largest in point
of membership of any in the state,
despite the fact that the members are
further removed from their alma
mater. TIL club has among it's num-
bers some of the most prominent men
of the community and many Of the rep
resentative young men of the city.

Unhnrrted Justice.

Some years ago an Ohio court was the
scene of many amusing incidents. The
Judge was a man from Connecticut, who
retained the New England speech and
other characteristics which had been his
birthright. He declared that there were
mo frills" about his court, but there
were some appurtenances without which
he evidently felt it impossible to admin
lister justice in a wise andtemperate way.
One morning an eager petitioner was de-
manding the settlement of certain mat
ter then and there, but while he pleaded,
the judge, with a disturbed face, rum
mayed among the papers on his table.
Hold cn!" he cried. at last. This
court has lost her pencil, and you might
just as well wait till she finds it if you
want her fairly to take in what you're
saying.".Youth's Companion.

VERY ANCIENT WAMPUM.
Valuable Relic of the
Owned by a m of the
Tribe in Indian Territory,

| Indian wampum o1er 300 years old,
a valuable relic OF the Wyandotte tribe.
Is now in the possession of Col. Silas
Armstrong, a member Of that tribe and
a government employee at the Seneca
Indian training school at Wyandotte,
In the QuapaW reservation, Indian Terri
| tory, says the Chicago Chronicle. This
reservation, although one of the small
est in area in Indian Territory, yet is
, historically important, as withinits lin
its are residing the remnants of some
OF the once most powerful tribes on the
American continent. The Senecas,
Wyandottes, Quapaws, Peorias, Otta-
was, Shawnees, together with several
other tribes, are represented within the
confines of the Quapaw reservation.
The Wampum, now in possession of
Col. Armstrong, has been handed down
from generation to generation since the
Wyandottes were strong in numbers in
northern Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indi-
ana and in southern MICHIGAN, where,
along the great lakes and the tributary
! streams, they were dominant for many
years. This wampum is in the form of
a belt, made of beads and buckskin, all
the material of Indian manufacture and
sewed together with strings of bark. On
! the belt, in addition to other emblems,
are the figures of two men, touching
hands, evidence OF some agreement made
i by the Indians, although unknown to
any living person. III attempting to find
the meaning of the figures and other en-
blems the Oldest members of all living
tribes have been appealed to, but always
in vain. The belt was presented to Col.
Armstrong by Gov. Walker, the first
provisional governor of what is now the
state of Kansas. The Wyandotte Indi-
n then occupied the land on which
Kansas City 10Y stands, together with
all eastern Kansas and western Mis-
souri,.
When the Pawnee Indians held their
great council in western Kansas, many
years ago, Gov. Walker took this piece
of wampum to the Oldest Indians there
assembled, but non of them were able
to read the emblems thereon. They could
tell nothing about them whatever, and
all the oldest Indian Inhabitants of many
tribes have set the age Of this particular
piece at Owe 300 years.

When the noondsy sun was having

and the business section around Four

John l.. Sullivan, right from the tub,
stepped from the Morton house door
to SUN himself On the curb, relates the
New York Sun. His coat was thrown
back carelessly, revealing a new waist

Of purple ran ~perplexingly through
the basic color Of the garment, defy
ing the eye to tell whether they were
going up or going down. Where the
garment parted just below the shirt

lows neck the collar had been cut by
a craftsman who knew the true sweep
OF an artistic curve. Above the sheen
OF white linen a wine colored tie of
noble proportions was knotted into a

the wine color and clucked back into

OF the bar and fell naturally under the

studied the hue in shadow and in sun
light, and fell out as to whether it was
brown, mauve, tan or something else.
Out of the store across the way shot
a clerk with a time allowance of Is
minutes in which tc make of himself a
human envelope fo- pie, milk and sun

men who had an acquaintance with
the clerk halted him.
