Convention of the State Synode.
The trustees of DR.. Martin Luther col
lege met Thursday in annual session, and
in the forenoon they attended the vari-
Gus class exercises of the college. In the
afternoon the graduating class passed a
commendable examination in practical
teaching, pupils of the Lutheran school
being present. Later on the annual re-
port of Director Schaller was submitted
and some repairs were ordered. The bus
mess course branch of the college,
under the management of Prof. 81. w.
Behnke will continue as it has proven
very successful in the past. Not less
than forty-five scholars attended the
the business course, among them several
ladies. The board will meet again short.
ly before the convention of the General
Lutheran Synod of Wisconsin, Missouri
and Minnesota. The State Synod con-
venes here in New Ulm Wednesday June
18th, Immediately after the close of the
college exercises. It is expected that
something like two-hundred delegates
from the various congregations will be
present, and the local congregation be-
ing the second strongest in the state, it
will be easily arranged to have the
guests comfortably domiciled in the
homes of the members, of which there
are over three hundred.

college will take place at the institution
next Tusday, when Messrs. Chas. Kelpe,
VIM. Renner, Hermann Stein, Oscar

their diplomas. From one of the col.
lege trustees we learn that all nine can
didates will pass creditably, a good
showing for the college. All the stu
dents will have left town by Wednesday
and the college will be deserted during
the vacation.
