From the Lawrence Daily World for Feb. 9, 1908: “The University of Kansas has finally reached a long-expected total of 2,000 enrollees. H.H. Miller was the 2,000th on the list as he signed up as a junior engineering student this morning. Officials say the final total may go to 2,100 or beyond. : The murder trial of Ephraim Vancil began today and jury people have been selected to determine the fate of the man accused of poisoning his wife. After the jury was sworn in, the judge dismissed all the other veniremen who had been summoned. : Yesterday a local butcher drew a gun and held a man who had been stealing a beefsteak. He held the man until police could come to arrest him.”
