COULDN'T WRITE ENGLISH
One u. of M. Candidate for Masters
Degree Is Turned Down
Hard.

One candidate for a masters degree at
the University of Minnesota failed to re-
ceive the coveted honor to-day. He hand
ed his thesis to the faculty, and the paper
was returned with a note saying that he
was undoubtedly well acquainted with his
subject, but that his construction and
spelling were SO poor as to destroy all in
terest in it. This student has already re-
ceived his bachelors degree and is OF
pure American descent, which fact leaves
no room for excuses. eThe matter was
considered so deplorabla that the board
of regents adopted the following resolu-
ton:
Resolved, that from and after 1904 every per-
son admitted to this university shall be ex-
posing the English language: that all who fail
to obtain a credit Of IS per cent Shall be re-
quired to take instruction as provided and that
no person shall ever receive any diploma or
other certificate Of merit or proficiency until he
shall have passed such examination and OBJ
tanned the specified credit.

SHE SAID It AGAIN.
Stubbards Asked Mrs. Krombaoh to
Repeat Her Story Before
Witnesses.
The Court Holds That His Action
Prevents Damages for
Slander.

''You stole my wood" said Mrs. Mary
Krombach to James Stubbards recently.
AS result Of this accusation the Krom-
bach and Stubbards families are fairly
launched in what would be q feud in Ken
lucky, but which, being In Minnesota, is
merely a series Of three damage suits, one
for assault and battery and two more for
SANDER.
The first Of the series came up for trial
before Judge Harrison yesterday. James
Stubbards sued the lady in question. for
$1,50O damages. or 1876 per word. The trial
lasted quick, being dismissed by the court
on motion Of the defendant. The other
cases were continued over the term.
The ground for dismissal was that
there had been no publication of the SLAM
derous sentence. It developed that when
Mrs. Krombach informed the plaintiff in
the case that he had Illegally appropriated
some of her fuel there had been no per-
son present save the two personally In
terested. Realizing that fact Stubbards
returned later with two witnesses and
asked his accuser to repeat her charge.
Not daunted in the least, Mary repeated.
The court held, however, that since the
remark had been made the second time
at the invitation Of the plaintiff the re-
covery for SANDER could not lie. In de-
Tense Of her statement Mrs. Krombach al
legged that she did use the language quoted
above but that she was justified therein
by the fact that the plaintiff had stolen
the wood.

THE TITLE IS GOOD
National Bond and Security Co.
Fails to Break It's Own
Tax Title.
A Decision Which Means Saving Of
About $4,000 to the
County.

Hennepin county ia about $4,000 ahead
by Judge Ponds decision filed this morn
ing in the case Of the National Bond and
Security company against the board of
county commissioners. The plaintiff
sought the refupdment Of taxes and inter
est by attacking its own tax title to an
eighty acre strip Of land In the northeast
corner Of the ninth ward. It's efforts were
In vain. The court held the title valid.
The case will probably be appealed.
The fight for money In the place of ninth
ward pasture land has been In. the courts
about year. The plaintiff contended
that 1t had a right to the refundment OF
the money In accordance with decisions
in similar cases previously handed down.
Upon this contention the county commits
sioners were asked to certify the claim,
to the state auditor for payment. This
the board refused to do.
The matter finally came before the state
auditor, who refused to allow the claim.
Mandamus proceedings In the supreme
court resulted in decision in favor Of
the county.
Not satisfied the company began regu-
lar proceedings in the district court. It
there sought to prove Its tax title in
valid, Assistant County Attorney C. L.
Smith succeeded in establishing to the
satisfaction Of the court that the title
was clear and that the plaintiff company
still owned the land.

RAN DOWN A FUGITIVE
An Escaped Workhouse Prisoner Is
Captured After a Lively
Sprint.

Bert White, better known in this city
as King White, who escaped from the
Minneapolis workhouse a few weeks ago,
was arrested early this morning by
Mounted Patrolman Michael Dugan and
Sergeant Martin Ginsberg of the North
Side police station. White was turned over
to the workhouse authorities and will be
charged with escaping from prison after
he has completed the seventy days of his
unfinished sentence.
White is said to be clever thief and
has done time at ST. Cloud as well as in
prisons of other states. He was relea sed
from the prison at Anamosa, Iowa, last
December and came back to Minneapolis
in February. The police watched him
closely and as he showed no disposition to
go to work, he was arrested upon a charge
of vagrancy. He asked for a trial but
could not convince the court that he was
a hard working man and was given ninety
days in the workhouse. He became
model prisoner, and was given various
liberties which he took advantage of to
escape.
This morning Officer Dugan received
word that the fugitive was in a room at
Eighteenth avenue N and Fifth street
The officer went to that place and as soon
as White saw the uniform he took to his
heels. with Dugan in hot pursuit. For ten
blacks the men ran, and just as the officer
was about to give up the chase, White
ran into the arms of Sergeant Ginsberg.
Florence Clark, who was with White,
was also locked up on a charge of
vagrancy and was found guilty Judge
Holt sentenced her to thirty days In the
workhouse.

CALL FOR A REFUND.
Demand Will Be Made That Aid.
Westphal Repay Election
Contest Expenses.
He Contends That the Council Lee
gally Defended It's ACT in
Seating Him.

Alderman A. g. westphal win be called
upon to refund to the city the money voted
to him by the city council to pay his ex-
penses In the election contest and recount
starter by former Alderman Claus o.
Peterson. Such at least is the announce
ment made by a close friend Of Mr.. Peter
sons, who was deprived Of his expense
money by the district court through pro-
ceedings he believes to have been insti-
gated by Alderman Westphal. Mr.. Peter
son Is understood to be firm in the belief
that what Is sauce for the goose should
be sauce for the gandar, and will expert
ment to see II the game begun by Mr..
Westphal will work both ways. II.
Alderman Westphal does not consider
the two cases parallel at all He argues
that inasmuoh as he had been seated by
the council 1t was the duty Of this body
to defend its own acts and to bear the
expense.
The courts order in the Peterson case
serves as a notice to the officers Of the
city that such payments are illegal and
even If the aldermen should hereafter
appropriate money for election contests,
the officers Of the city would probably
be governed thereby. IN this respect the
effects Of the case will be far-reaching
as there Is scarcely an election which does
not produce q contest.
