Advantages offered by minnesota.

IheNeu Northeast, monthly published
in Philadelphia, OF which No. of Vol. 2 ii
before us, is doing good work in presenting
the advantages offered by Minnesota and the
Northwest for settlement. The following is
sample of the good words of this section
which finds place in its columns:
To any person or family intending to try
their fortunes this spring in the West, there is
no locality that offers 30 many inducements as
the country adjacent to the Northern Pacific
railroad, in Minnesota and Dakota. The pe.
culiar condition of things, which makes it pos
sible to purchase land of this company at
about one-quarter the regular price by making
payment in preferred stock of the com pany,
renders these lands the cheapest desirable
farming lands in the country A man
starting q new home in Minnesota or Da-
kota can fully pay for his whole farm at about
what under ordinary circumstances he would
haze to pay yearly for five years were he to buy
other railroad lands on five years time. There
are two very great advantages about this-less
money is required at the start, and the num-
Der of farms opened up is much larger. Thus
the country is more rapidly settled and value
of farms advanced. Already the demand for
preferred stock for this purpose has advanced
the price of the stock from about $40, two
years ago, to S28 to-day, and another year may
see it much higher.

Levity aside, Aid. Allen discussed the tramp

STATE UNIVERSITY.
An Informal Secret Meeting of a Public
Body.

An Informal Secret Meeting Of Public
Body.
The board of regents of the State univer-
sity held meeting in tho Governors room
at the capitol yesterday. This meeting en-
braced q forenoon and afternoon session,
both long. Both sessions were informal, as
President sibley informed the reporter. In
plain words, the meeting was q secret ses-
sion, a custom which seems to have grown in
considerable favor with this board of late-a
custom. that would undoubtedly be more
honored in the breach than in the obsery-
ance.
There were present Regents Pillsbury,
Sibley, Marshall, Folwell, Burt, Chute, Edg-
erton and Gibson, Mr.. Edgerton meeting
with the board for the first time since his
appointment to fill the vacancy occasioned
by the resignation of A. A. Harwood. of
Austin.
During the day the board considered, in
formally and in secret, the faculty work of
the university in general, and the case of
Mrs. Augusta Norwood Smith, IN particular.
Mrs. Smith is at present preceptress aud in.
structor in English history, but at the last
regular meeting, which also had great
deal of the informal secret business
about it, it was finally decided to dispense
with her services at the end of the present
University year. This formal determine.
ton has raised something of breeze in GER
tain outside circles, and consideration of the
protests made to this formal action raised a
decided breeze within the sacred precincts of
the informal conclave yesterday, but as no
definite action was had, everything being
informal, the general public must perforce
remain in ignorance of the views of the
board on this matter, and the other ques-
tions informally considered, until the board
meets formally and formal record of the
proceedings is made by the secretary.
This formal meeting will be held the third
Tuesday in April, as per adjournment
