IN MEMORY OF PROF. HAIR.
Editorial Tribute to the Leading Edu-
Gator at Baker University.

Baldwin, Kan, Jan. 1.-THE following
editorial appeared in the first issue of
the Baker Orange, after holidays !:
When the man whose hair has been
whitened by the SHOWS of three score
and ten winters is laid to his last rest
ing place. it seems that the Death
Angel has but garnered the ripened
grain. But when the sickle cuts down
the life still in the vigor and strength
of manhood, to our finite minds it
seems untime1y. Thus was the death of
Prof. Hair. When we left school before
the holidays, he was still at his post of
duty. Three days later, the Destroyer
had come. The life so full of melody
and music was gone For seventeen
years he had been here, teaching the
beauty of music to countless souls
In this time he became recognized as
one of the master musicians of the
west Under his guidance, our music
department has been brought to an en-
Wiably high plane and his graduates are
known to be among the strongest in the
country.
Prof Kenny was introduced at chapel
Tuesday morning and was greeted by
a hearty applause from the students.
ing without loss of time, and it is ex-
pected that in a few days that the work
will be going on in good shape, under
his direction. Prof. Kenny will give
musicale in the near future.
The noted cartoonist John F. Nc
Cutcheon, of the Chicago Tribune, lee
tured here Tuesday night. His lecture
was illustrated by chalk pictures which
were made very rapidly and accurately.
Mr.. McCutcheon is not SO much an en-
tertainer as he is an instructor. There

was very little humor in his lecture
compared with the usual chalk-talk. He
told us of the Importance of cartoon
work in the newspaper world of today
and gave us a good idea of the mission
or the cartoon. The cartoon which is
intended to antagonize is rapidly being
out dated by the good natured cartoon
Most of the cartoons drawn by Mr. Nc
Cutcheon Tuesday evening were this
class. The house was full and very at
tentive throughout the evening.
During this week recitation periods
have been shortened from one hour to
forty-fve minutes. The chapel hour oc-
curing at eleven o'clock. This is on ac-
count of the special meetings which
have been in progress under the leader
ship of Rev Hugh E. Smith, of Los
Angeles, Cal. Three meetings have
been held each day; one at eleven
O'Clock; one at three, and one at eight
p. m. The meetings have been well at
tended and considerable interest has
been shown. All lessons were shorten
ed to enable the students to attend
John S. Simmons, who has lately been
elected speaker of the house of repre-
sentatives of the Kansas legislature,
was formerly a Baker boy, having made
his home in Douglas county for a num-
Der of years. For several years he
taught school in the county.
Two big basket ball games are in
sight for the next few days. One with
the Haskell Indians Thursday night.
and the Chicago Crescents Monday
played on the home floor. Manager
Bacon has a very strong schedule ar
ranged, which he will soon publish.
Coach Allen predicts that all of the fol-
lowing games will result in victory for
Baker. The game with the Crescents
will be close and for a western team to
score against this Big Five would be
highly complimentary.

FITZ is WAKING UP.
Talk of $4,000 Purses Has Stirred the
COrnishman Around.

New York, Jan. blob F'itzsimmons
can not remain inactive with the talk of
$4,000 purses constantly ringing in his
ears. He has just leaDed into the lime
light with an offer to tackle James J.
Jeffries again for $4,000 of which $4,000
can go to charity. F'ftz says he would
be sure of a good losers end, and that
even if defeated, he would guarantee to
put up a more interesting argument than
Squires of Australia, Tommy Burns or
Jack O'Brien.
Robert Incidentally expresses a desire
to meet O'Brien again and says that he
would also jump at a chance to tackle
Burns. When O'Brien beat F'itzsimmons
on the coast, there were many critics at
the ring side who said that the battle
had queer look. Some of them went so
far rs to inSinuate that Fitz got all the
money for stopping of his own accord.
while O'Brien secured enough notoriety
to make him better drawing card on
the road.
Fftz has not taken part in ring con-
test since, and many fight fans have been
led to believe that he was through with
the game. In view OF the fight O'Brien
put up recently against Burns, another
meeting between the aged -Cornishman
and the crafty Philadelphia might be of
passing interest.

The Clever Featherweight Eager
to Meet Champion.
mDVTNN EOR XEApS
TRYING FOR 2 YEARS.
Wants to Weigh 122 Pounds on
Day of Fight.
Has Backing to the Extent of
$1,000 for the Match.

: New York, Jan. Hilary Harris,
the featherweight pugilist, is out with
a challenge to fight Abe Attell, the
champion, for the title. Harris is ac-
lnowledged to be one of the cleverest
fighters in the ring today at the weight,
and as Atten is also clever in the ex-
.treme a bout between these two boys
would be probably the prettiest exhibit
stion of boxing ever seen.
For the last two years Harris has
been trying to get on a match with At
cell for the championship of the world,
but SO far has been unsuccessful. Attell
always claimed that Harris could not
make the weight, which the champion
Harris offered to weigh 122 pounds at 8
O'Clock on the day of the fight, but
the champion would not agree to this.
So Harris has come forth with another
proposition. Attell has challenged Jim
my Britt to fight at 1873 pounds, and also

COLE WILL COACH NEBRASKA.
Had Charge of the Virginia State Uni
versity Eleven Last Year.

Lincoln, Neb., Jan 1.-THE ath-
letic board of the University of Ne
braska today announced the selection
of William c. Cole as football coach
for the season of 1907. The new Ne
braska coach, who is better known in
college circles as King Cole, is
graduate of the law department of the
University of Michigan, at which in
stitution he was a player in 1902, un-
der Yost, being stationed at tackle. He
was head coach at Marietta college,
Ohio, in 1903, returning to Michigan
the following year to become Yost's
first assistant. In 1905 he assumed
the head coachship at Virginia state
university and was again in charge of
the Virginia football squad during the
season of 1905. His teams at Virginia
have been consistently successful, los
ing but one game in each of his two
years. In 1905 Virginia defeated West
Point, while in 1906 the only defeat
sustained by his pupils was in the con-
test with the Carlisle Indians, who
scratched out a victory by a score of
g to IT, the Virginians missing one
goal and thus failing to make it tie
game.

ing games with big Nine" schools.
Kansas has decided not to enter the
