REGENTS ARE SERENE
Say They Don't Fear EncrOachments
-Pres't Ankeny's Position.

Say They Don't Fear Entertainments
Priest Ankeny's Position.
The university regents will not admit
that the decision Of the supreme court,
turning over the financial management of
the normal schools to the board Of control.
will have any effect upon the university.
However, it is said that the board Of
control views the matter in a different
light, and will at once attempt to as
sumo charge of the university finances.
Judge Stephen Mahoney, one of the two
Minneapolis members Of the board, said,
that, while he knew nothing Of the In
tentions of the board of control, he felt
confident that the supreme court decision
could not apply to the university, and
that II the board attempted to take
charge it would find itself with another
fight on hand. Said he:
THE university was created by the
state constitution, and is managed by a
duly authorized corporation. Neither of
these things is true of the normal
schools. The cases are not parallel, and
I believe the decision cannot affect us.
At any rate, l am confident the board of
regents will act upon that supposition,
and that the board Of control will never
be permitted to assume charge, at least
until the courts shall have specifically
granted them uthority to do So"
Normal Board Will Yield.
So, far as the normal school board is
concerned, the decision was not sur
prise. A. T. Ankeny, president Of the
board, said, this morning: :.
The normal board will meet at once and
take all necessary action to put itself in line
with the decision. This was agreed to some
time ago, and the meeting would have been

GREAT FLUTTER AT FARGO

Methodists' New Pipe Organ Carried
Away by Mistake.
Special to The Journal.
Fargo, N. D. Jan. 3.-There was conster-
nation in First M. E. church circles for
a while yesterday. Some days ago the
new pipe organ arrived from Chicago, but
was left on the Milwaukee side tracks till
the arrival of the experts to set it up.
Alongside the organ car was another
loaded with Bishop Edsall's household
furniture, to be removed to Minneapolis.
In some manner the out train took the car
containing the organ instead of the
bishops furniture, and there was lively
interchange of kilograms till the train
pulling it was found half way to Mime
apolis and the car ordered rushed back
on the next train.

book and music made great hit. Not
SO this new venture The authors have

ard. There is nothing of merit in the
book and absolutely no comedy. There
is Il lame attempt at it. but the actor
who gets n laugh in this performance
must feel that 1t is kind encourage
ment for him, not real spontaneous
enjoyment of the work. There is often
much charity in a large audience. and
this if evidenced must not always be
mistaken for success. The music,
though light, is swingy, tuneful and
very pleasing. In the ensembles there
is novel intermingling with new
numbers, Il few bars at Il time. of all
the old airs of 1865, and just as the
old acquaintance is recognized he is
gone. This effect is very quaint and
somewhat fascinating, keeping one on
the lookout for glimpses of the other
days. The finales of the first and sec
ond acts were particularly good, and
the dance for Cordelia's birthday in
the first act made n charming stage
picture. The light colored dresses, big

This was also seen in Hackett's THE

is the old hop waltz of the early sixties,
and it has been well taught and assists
in the creation of ''atmos-

praise. l have seen many attempts at
