GOPHER STAR ON
PENN. FOOTBALL TEAM

=. F. tx & ~ - o.
Fgil Boeckman of st. Paul, who, for
three years, was an I'm" man in foot
ball at the University of Minnesota,
will be a candidate for the Pennsyl-
vania team this fall.
Boeckman attended the university
medical school for three years, and at
the completion of his course in 1904
went to Pennsylvania "Uo for adj
vanced medical work. He played on the
Pennsylvania squad last year, but was
barred from the team by the one-year
rule.
In the Michigan game at Northrop
field, two years ago, .Boeckman gained
fame by carrying the ball over the
Michigan line during the, last few min
utes of play, scoring the touchdown
that resulted in a tie score. He weighs
about two hundred pounds, was, one of
the fastest sprinters in the university
and should make good at the Quaker
institution.

The fall opening of the university is
a marked event in the life Of South

who throng the, campus. DR.. W. h.

privileges of his ministry to preach to
these students. He puts emphasis
upon his interest in them by planning
special service for Sept. "a, called
"The Students Welcome Service. i"
Prominent men will speak on behalf Of

CHURCHES
STOCK ISSUED IN
MISSIONARY FUND
ANDREW PRESBYTERIAN ADOPTS
NOVEL ENDOWMENT PLAN.
Two Hundred and Fifty Shares at 500
Each to Be Sold-Income Will Be
Used to Support Rev. J. H. Nicol and
Wife in the Foreign Mission Field.

Rev. Charles F. Hubbard, DID,, pas
tor of Andrew Presbyterian church, is
the originator of business-like plan
for raising missionary funds which will
should it be adopted generally. His
plan consists in the raising of an en-
dowment, the annual income to be
used as a perpetual missionary fund.
In July he outlined this plan from
the pulpit. 1t met with the universal
approval of his congregation, was
adopted, and is now in successful oper
600, divided into $50 shares of 800
each, will produce an income Of $1,25O,
and this amount is to be devoted to
missionary work.
Regular certificates are issued for the
shares. These may be paid in full Or
the interest only, at per cent, payable
semi-annually. If part OF, share be
quired. ,- -.. ~ -. .,..r-s i.
One-half of the amount, or 125 shares,
were subscribed at congregational
meeting called recently expressly to
consider the matter.
Previously, the. official boards of the
church, elders, deacons and trustees,
met and nominated two men from each
from the congregation, were elected at
the called meeting to serve as board
O. directors, the pastor being chairman
ex-offcio. These men are: Edgar j..
Couper and George g; Fuller, elders;
Fred Eustis, E. G. Bisbee, deacons;
Charles E. Rittenhouse, Charles A. Bar
ton, trustees; Professor Frank M. An
derson, Professor Norman Wilde, from
the congregation. George Fuller is
secretary and Fred Eustis treasurer of
the board. ..- I'D,
This radical change in methods is
probably due, in large measure, to a
desire on the part Of pastor and people
to assure the salary of Rev. J.. II. Nicol,
who started this week for Syria as the
special missionary representative Of
Andrew church.
He and his wife, Rebecca Van Cleve
Nicol, who has been in Andrew church
all her life, are held in the most affec-
tionate regard, and missionary interest
has been greatly stimulated, with the
result already Indicated.
What is known as the "Forward
Movement in missions was originated
by l.. D. Wishard, international secre-
tary Of the Y. M. G. A, who is brother
of Mrs. George W. Wishard of Mime
apolis. This advises each church to do
as Andrew church is doing-support
one or more missionaries directly, in
stead of thru the boards This adds the
interest due to the "personal touch. -

FACE MANY LAW SUITS.
Clinton County May Have to Settle Old
Soldiers Claims.

Clinton, Jan. 1o.-During spasm Of
patriotism, when President Lincoln is
sued his first call for volunteers at the
breaking out Of the civil war, the Gin
ton county board of supervisors Of
fered a bounty of SIS to every soldier
who would enlist within six months.
A large number responded to the call
and $50, who resided at Dewitt, where
the court house was then located, re-
ceived the bounty. However, a large
number, residing elsewhere in the
county, never received their bounty
and today the claims stand against the
county. They are recorded in two vol
umes which lne county auditor acct
IDENTIFY found in the court house a few
days ago. In addi on to the original
claims there is more than forty years
accrued interest. The records show
which claims were paid and the date OF
