TO SWAP PROFESSORS.
Proposition Which the Kaiser VIII
Lay Before the President.

Berlin, Jan. 28.-Emperor William
has directed the ambassador to the
United States, Baron Speck Won Stern
burg, to lay before President RoOse-
welt in official form the suggestion for
an exchange of professors etween Ger
many and America that the empero
mentioned to Ambassador Tower on
New Years day. The ambassador who
sailed on the Kaiser Wilhelm Der
Crosse January Is, only carries an out
line OF the project which the president
Will be k to approve and cooperate
In making a workable plan. The en-
peror has invited several German pro-
fessors to present him with their ideas
On the subject. Professor Adolph Har-
mack, one of those invited, writes in the
Preussiche J~ahrbuecher that the great
tied fast to any one n They
lectured at Naples, Bologna, Paris.
Cologne and Oxford and their students
ollowed them Professor Harnack ex-
plains the advantage to udents of
spending part of their period of study
abroad. An exchange of students, he
adds, necessarily suggests an exchange
of professors. Only d few students can
now have the advantage of study
abroad but larger numbers viii get that
advantage when the professor himself
goes abroad to lecture He refers to
Lord Kelvin, Sir William Ramsay and
hansen. the explorer,as having lectured
in Berlin. Professor Max Mueller, Pro-
lessor Harnack also points out, came to
S~trassburg to give lectures while re-
tanning his Oxford profeSsOrship, and
adds that Professor Gregory of Leipsig
is American by birth and a professor
at q German university and has given
a course of lectures in America.
The simplest means to inaugurate
professional Interchange, according to
Prof. Harnack. is to invite distin-
Iguished professors from abroad to
give courses of four to eight lectures.
But this is not enough. The best thing
If it can be done is to call for an entire
six months tour, or even longer. In
port a professor when it has a better
one at home 1t will always be best to
let the students hear the language of
the literature and economic and So
cial affairs of another country from a
professor of that country No mount
of industrious study will give German
students the insight into these things
that they can get from a native of
America. 1t is of all the civilized
states the most remote for Germany
and most closely related.
"In exchanging professors" con-
tinues Prof. Harnack, I'VE think in
the first instance of America. Har-
ward and Berlin are already negoti-
ating a plan, n will have to begin
with caution and within modest linn
its. If the idea is sound it will then
grow of itself. Difficulties will have

tour, beginning and ending at differ
readily willing to let a favorite pro-
fessor off for even a short time. The
difficulties are not insurmountabIe.
Distance hardly counts any longer.
The conviction that international du-
ties have arisen for mel of science
will carry the plan to success, and this
will aid in disseminating and strength
ening the bond of fraternity"

NEW MISSOURI VALLEY LEAGUE
Meeting at Parsons Wednesday to
Organize One.

Parsons. Kan, Jan. 2S.=Repre-
~sentatives of a number Of towns in
Missouri, Kansas and Indian Territory
Will meet at Parsons, Kan, on We'd
nesday. February 1, for the purpose
OF organizing a new association of
baseball clubs to rank as a Glass d
leasue under the protection of the
National Association of Professional
Baseball leagues.
The circuit. which will consist Of
eight towns in the Missouri valley, will
be selected from the following list:
Neosho, Nevada and Webb City, NO.;
Pittsburg, Parsons, Coffeyville, Fort
Scott, lola n Chanute, Kan, and
Muskogee, Vinita and South McAles-
ter, I. T.
1t is learned that i've towns are
prepared to take franchises in the new
league Immediately, but the names of
cult will not be decided upon until the
meeting ct Parsons. It is the object
of the promoters of the league to
establish a live organization and one
that will grow as the Western associa-
ton has grown. The new league Will
in no be a competitor of the
Western association. Poor manage
ment of the various clubs will not be
tolerated, nor will poor ball players,
and the brand of baseball served up
to the fans aroun the circuit VIII be
kept up to a gilt edged standard.
The meeting at Parsons wednesday
will be one of organization. A presi-
dent, a secretary n a treasurer viii
be selected for a one year term, n
it is proposed to secure men of lnteg-
rity and standing in the world or DuSl-
ness as we'll as that of baseball for
their officials. Arthur Irwin owner OF
the Kansas City Blooz, is mentioned
for the treasurership. A committee
will be appointed to draft a cOnSt1tu-
ton and bylaws, and it is thought that
the constitution of the Western asso-
citation "a be so revised as to apply
to the new league. Another commit
tee will be appointed to arrange the
circuit affairs. At least five clubs are
sure to be admitted at this inaugural.

been received from Secretary Farrell,
of the National association, that pro-
lection will be granted the new or
ganization in Class D.
It is proposed to adopt a short
schedule for the first season. This will
enable the clubs to open the season
about May 1, escaping the rainy
It is altogether probable that a 100
game schedule will be decided upon.
The salary limit is also to be deter
mined at the Parsons meeting, al
though it is suggested that $500 will
be sufficient to run the league on a
conservative basis for the first season.
The object of the circuit committee
will be to make h league as compact
as possible. reducing the distances so
as to cut down transportation to the
minimum. 1t is confidently expected
that the new league Will be launched
with great enthusiasm n flying col
ors, and the present Interest in the
circuit points would indicate

organization in its territory.

The Proper Way to Lobby.

Perhaps h ladies have made a

They would approach a senator as if

him with a pleasant smile and kind

and he gave them a prtckbat.
What the ladies should have done
is this: Approached the senators with

DR.. Farris' Horrible Nightmare.

The bill was presented by Represen-
tative DR.. Epson Farris, but he will
have a hard time making anyone be-
lieve that he wrote it. Or. Farris. ac-
cording to his own admission, is a grad
uate of the Central Normal college of
Danville, Ind., and the Central College
of Physicians and Surgeons at Indian
apolis.
The alleged idea concealed in the bill,
is that football is not a sport which
should be tolerated at state schools. Of
course Mr.. Farris viii never be able to
make the healthy minded public see any
reasonable objection to@sthe game, but
he should be set right and shown
wher hesis wrong. That awful microbe
should be chased out of his system.
1t is almost a cinch that Mr.. Farris
has never seen aaAfootball game, and it
is hoped that he did not draw up the
bill, but if he did not, he should edit
the junk handed him by rural constitu-
ents before submitting it to the reading
clerk.
The bill will be a nightmare to the
gentleman with the Stahl whiskers be-
fore it gets to third reading. A legis-
lator may monkey with woman suf-
frage, the red liquor proposition and
graft measures, and escape without
injury, but the man VIC interferes
with the noble college sport, football,
will see things at night.

The s~uffragists' lobby has decided
that the senate is principally composed
of hardened sinners instead of pa
triots. They naturally presumed that
the g~allants would cluster around the
standard of the fair asking delegation,
but they did not. The ladies asked
for little here below, but instead of
granting their modest request the
bold, bad senators proceeded to poke
holes in the bill until it looked like
a sieve. The s~uffragists wanted to
vote on propositions which could not
