Good In EVERYTHING.

The late Sir Wilfred Lawson, we'll
known as an English temperance re-
former as we'll as a wit, invariably
took cheerful view of life and con-
duct. In conversation with him one
day an ardent person rallied forcibly
against the practice OF christening
vessels with champagne before being
launched. Sir Wilfred did not alto
gether agree and said good temper
ance lesson might be learned from the
practice.
"How can that be2"' demanded the

high school and the upper mill stone,

Strong to the Front.
That the State university has many
friends among the assembled teachers
was demonstrated by the ovation ten
dered Chancellor Strong and the ap-
plause rendered him at various points
in his talk. He said in part:
'In my opinion the University of
Kansas must always have a college
of liberal arts The trend of Ameri-
can education makes that necessary.
1t would be difficult for any one to
point out an institution that has been
able to confine itself entirely to grad
uate work Several institutions have
tried it, like Johns Hopkins and the
Clark university, but both have been
forced to undertake undergraduate
work.
America has received much good
from Germany in the line of educa-
ton. 1t has also received some evil
and it will always be impossible for
the American university to follow ex-
actly the German university. There
fore I think that 1t is safe to say that
state universities especially must pro-
vide college work fortheir constituents
for it is public institution supported
by public taxation and those who pay
the taxes will insist that their chill
dren receive at their university the
opportunities for full rounded train
Ing.
1.-The provision of the present con-
stitution in regard to the University
of Kansas contemplates that it shall
be a unit for 1t provides that it shall
contain an agricultural and normal
department. Under the terms of the
constitution therefore it was intended
that the agricultural and normal work
should be done at Lawrence. For
reasons not necessary to discuss at this
time the agricultural work is not done
at Lawrence but at Manhattan and
the normal work not done at Law
renee but at Emporia. That provision
of the constitution although broken
cannot now be mended.
I'm theory however, the university
is still unit and the agricultural col
lege and the normal school are
they are in fact separate institutions.
I must in this connection differ from
the speaker who preceded me. AS
long as these institutions are not in
Lawrence it is impossible for them to
do what the preceding speaker has in
confine themselves entirely to the
specific work denoted by their names.
"In other words some duplication
is necessary from the circumstances,
but 1t is the belief of the University of
Kansas that this duplication should be
made just as little in extent as the
specific work of these institutions will
permit. In another way / must diff
fer from the preceding speaker. I
stand on the Yale platform in regard
to requiring a full college course for
entrance to technical or professional
schools. 1 do not believe that it will
ever become general in America and es-
pecially that 1T will ever become gen.
eral in state universities. For to do so
would be to exclude the man who
may lack formal educational training
but whose ability and general knowl-
edge adequately fit him to enter a
profession Those men of great ability
but which misfortune has denied
full formal training must have their

chance in life and nothing should
stand in their way except reasonable
requirements for the right standard in
their profession.
again the University of Kansas as
the head of the whole public school
system of the state believes it to be it's
duty to lead in unifying the educational
system of Kansas. 1t is it's place be-
cause of it's constitutional and legal po-
sition. In this respect it has a definite
relation to the UNCONVENTIONAL colleges
OF the state and that relation is one
of helpfulness and cooperation, and If
the university were able to do so at
this moment it would treble the in
come and equipment of every denomi-
national college in the state.
THE constitutional and legal position
of the university gives it an. advantage
that must be conceded but as long as
the present head of the university re-
mains there the University of Kansas
is not going to take an undo advantage
of its position. In closing. The Uni
versity of Kansas regards 1t as of first
Importance that it should be at bottom
religious. That is to say that the old
idea of 40 years ago that you could
separate religious from intellectual
training has proven faIlacious. The
first thing for an institution to do is to
make good men and that is the plat
form on which the University of Kan
sas stands.

CHRISTMAS AT PRISON.
No Work and . Good Dinner for the
Leavenworth Convicts.

Leavenworth, Kan, Dec. 26.-Christ-
mas was observed at the three peniten-
tiaries here by suspension of all work.
There were Christmas pardons
granted to any of the inmates of the
three prisons The actors of a vaude-
vile organization gave two perform
ances at the chapel of the Kansas peni-
Tertiary in the forenoon. The prisoners
had fresh roast pork, oranges, bananas
and pies extra for dinner. The prison.
ers at the federal prison also enjoyed
a theatrical performance by vaudeville
actors playing here. The inmates of
the military prison had a special din
ner. They had a band concert and the
freedom of the yard for the day.

George Thomas Mistook Friend for q

George Thomas, a negro recently re-
leased from the county Jail after serving
a long sentence for assault, was arrested
by the police for mistaking a friend for a
Christmas turkey. Thomas was making
noble efforts to carve one Archie Cooper
also colored. Thomas, armed with knife,
chased Cooper all over the Second ward
Cooper wore his best long-tailed coat,
which afforded excellent Opportunities.
and Thomas took advantage thereof.
Cooper's coat tails looked like quarters
worth of string ties and the knife had
punctured the cuticle in two locations
which will cause Mr. Cooper to take his
meals standing for some time.

New York. April 2O.-Dr. Smith
Ely Jeilime, one Of the alienists who
testified for Harry K ThaW, called at
the TOmbs today and as a result there
were immediate rumors that Thaw
had broken down This was denied
BY Attorney Daniel O'RefIly. Thaw
he said, IS in the best Of condition
both physically and mentally. Thaw
ana Dr. Jellife. MI O'ReiIly explained
had become close friends and the doc
tors visit was personal rather than
professional
Mr. O'Reilly also took occasion to
deny TumOrs that Mrs. William ThaW
IS In financial straits and might not
be able to raise bail for her son, even
il the court admits him to bail.
Mrs ThaW was ready, he said, TO
Omer bail in any amount The appli-
cation for bail, however, probably viii

implOred by Thaw's relatives to re-
main in the case, but he had told
them he would not under any circum-
stances.
In his letter to Thaw's mother Del
mas said he could not reconcile his
dignity as an attorney with what Thaw
demanded OF counsel Thaw, the law
yer said, was not as much in need OF
a lawyer as he was Of a valet. The
prisoner wanted his attorneys to be at
his beck and call at all hours. Del
mas said To crafty the erratic de-
fendant's whims did not conform to

should exist between attorney and

District Attorney Jerome viii ques-
ton several Of the Thaw trial jurors
in his Office today relative to the al
legged attempt by a policeman to in
huence them while they were delib-
Grating
The supposed knowledge OF the in
cident possessed by Dennee, Newton
and Pfan OF the jury is said to be
what the district attorney wishes to
obtain No suspicion whatever at
taches to any Of the jurors. Mr-
Jerome merely seeks to learn if the
policeman really did wrong and, If so,
to have him punished. Pfah is out
of the city, but Newton and Dennee
are here.
The jurors. with the exception prob
ably Of Pfaf, will meet tonight at the
Broadway Central hotel TO have a
dinner and talk over the sleepleSs
