MEDICAL STUDENT AT UNIVERSITY
WONDERING WHERE HE Is At

Wy ONDEGEH1NO w NE AS
Thousands of dollars have been paid
out by D. w. Sprague, the university
accountant, to students, as result of
the bill recently passed by the Minnesota
legislature RENTING to Spanish war vet
Grams in the big educational institution
all fees that they have paid in during
the past two years. 1t didn't take the
young collegians who had shouldered
arms and put themselves in readiness to
fight their countrys battles long to
find out that they had something COM
ing, and the veteran university account
ant has been devoting most of his time
CT late to the paying out of fee money to
ex-soldiers.
One young man, a medical student, is
in a serious predicament as a result OF
the generosity of the legislature.
The students in his department are
obliged to pay out much larger fees than
other students because the scientific ma
ture of the studies calls for larger ex-
penditures. The laboratory and dissect-
ing fees added to this makes quite a
a heavy lot of money
The parents of the young man in Ques-
ton live in remote part of the state
and are not in very close touch with
the doings at the big diploma mill. The
fond son, at the close of his service in
the hot camp of the South. decided to
study medicine He was given a good
start, and, according to arrangements
made with the head of the household,
was to receive a monthly allowance in
addition to the necessary fees required
in the department of medicine. Under
the bill enacted by the legislature the
young man received nearly $500 in the
coin of the realm.
He was nonplussed, so to speak, in
having SO much ready money in his pos
session. He had been ''boning'' hard all
winter and thought it was about time
he was enjoying himself. The two hun
dred was in hand, ready to be disposed
of. His father was a long way off, and
i'll all probability didn't know of the
fine bunch of spending money that had
befallen his heir. So the young man
foolishly decided to blow the lump" and
blow it he did to his hearts content. He
bought everything in sight, wears new
diamond ring, got a rich present for his
girl, had SOME swell suppers. saw all the
shows and took his less fortunate friends
along with him.
BY the middle of last week the young
mans newly gained fortune had dwin-
died to mere nothing But he was
happy. His check for month In adj
vance was about due and he did not have
a care in the world so far as he could
see. Last Saturday the young mans
nerves were sadly Jared by the follow

DEDICATION IS PUT OFF
UNWILLING SOLDIERS MONUMENT

WILL NOT OCCUR MEMORIAL DAY
The handsome soldiers monument that
is to be erected on the G. A r. ground
at Lakewood cemetery will not be dedi-
Gated on Memorial day, May 30, as origEl-
ally intended.
The officers of the Lakewood Cemetery
association requested that some other
day be selected, and as the association
has made gift of the land to the G.
A. R. and has given the perpetual care
of the land to the Grand Army, the me-
mortal committee agreed to the change
Of date
The officers of the cemetery association
claim that every dedication costs the as
ISOLATION hundreds of dollars because Of
the big crowds that trample on the grass
and disarrange things in general, and it
was feared that If the exercises should
be held on a general holiday there would
be an enormous crowd Of people who
would have no interest whatever in the
exercises, and who would be attracted
simply out of curiosity.
The members of the memorial COM
nIittee Of the G. A r. felt that although
Memorial day would be in many respects
the most fitting day that could be select
ed, they, too. would rather have a crowd
every individual of which was In some
way connected with the Grand Army AMI
with those who fought in the war and
have now gone to their rest, than to
have an enormous crowd Of persons who
would be present merely out of idle curl
osity. They gladly consented to the. re-
quest of the cemetery people, and while
no definite date has been set for the ex-
ercises it has been decided that they win
not take place on Memorial day.
j. NJ Sullivan, who has the contract
for the erection Of the monument, said
yesterday that the statue would be COM
pleted before Memorial day, and that It
will be possible to hold the dedication ex-
ercises before that time. He expects to
be able to state in few days just when
the work will be completed, so that final
arrangements can be made for a fitting
observance Of the unwilling.

ABOARD FOR NORTH POLE
POSSIBILITY THAT CONDUCTORS
MAY BE CALLING THIS -
SAME LINE

During the past two months a series Of
experiments has been carried On at Rob-
binsdale, a suburb of Minneapolis, by
Charles E. S. Burch, with a view Of de-
vising some plan by which Arctic travel
can be made safe and pleasant. The
work of the engineer, who is himself a
veteran Alaskan explorer, has been
crowned with SUGGEST is said, and he
has now a model of machine which
will navigate the frozen rivers of the
north, and, possibly, solve the problem
of reaching even the north pole itself
The motive power of Mr.. Burch's new
machine is to be triple expansion steam
engines BY these are to be driven four
large, double, cone-shaped screws, which
will both support and propel the ma
chine Around the cone-Shaped screws is
a skate or rail, making practically rotary
skates of the screws
The machine is designed to skim the
surface of the ice, not to cut 1T. The
snow of Alaska is light and feathery,
not packing or slushing, and no difficulty
is to be experienced in running through
this light snow as it gathers on the icy
surface. r
It is the purpose of the company form
ed by Mr. Burch to equip solid, vestfbuled
trains 20 be drawn by the rotary screw
engines, the screws having sufficient
f1exibility to perform a curve equal to
be heated by hot air or steam, and Light
ed by electricity.
To insure safety, in case Of the break
ing of the ice, the bottom Of each car to
the window stills will be water tight, and
have a "twenty-four-ton floating capac-
ity over and above the total weight Of
the car and equipment.
The experiments at RobbinSdale have
been for the purpose of ascertaining the
n
screws. Mr.. Burch and all associated
with him have been greatly pleased with
the uniform success of their operations
at the lake.
BURCH IS ENTHUSIASTIC.
No more enthusiastic inventor ever
lived than Mr.. Burch Having a perfect
understanding of the difficulties Of the
proposition of Alaskan navigation, he
left Seattle in the summer of 81 with an
exploring party bound for the Yukon.
The survey lasted two years, during
which time the party travelled 1900 miles
over trails and frozen streams. Coming
out in the Arctic ocean, Mr.. Burch trav-
eled 500 miles in an open boat, landing
upon the beach at Nome in the fall of
49, A complete record of this survey Is
now in the possession of Mr.. Burch, to-
gether with much information in respect
to fuel. temperature at various points,
and other data of value In operating the
ice train
The success of this enterprise will rev.
olutionize Alaskan transportation, says
Mr.. Burch, and result in profits of thou
sands of dollars to all connected with
the manufacture of the machine. 1t IS
proposed to operate upon some 1900
piles of Alaskan waters. The cost of the
triple expansion engines to operate the
rotary screws will be $4,000 apiece. The
ordinary number of cars to train will
be used.
Mr.. Burch and his associates return to
Seattle next week. If their plans ma
ture the first ice train will be put into
use within the coming eighteen months.
