more Of his close political friends. It's
deliberations were guarded with the ut

would not discuss the incident today,

that it was not in the interests of

Dunn himself has not given up the
fight for governor, and has told many
people that he intends to be the nom

that proposition was Endorsed at the

Mr.. Black believes there is great flu

There was time,'' he said, nwher
the people Of Canada cried long ani

WEATHER NoNcoMM1rTAL
Government Forecasts Simply Sa,
sMebby So and Mebby Not

While not qualifying as a cold wave,
the bunch Of meteorologic depression
which was handed to Minneapolis last
night and hung over into today COM
pares favorably with the general aver
age Of the weather this winter. Govern
ment quotations opened at degrees be-
low today, but the recorder, which
works twenty-four hours a day on the
roof Of the federal building, admits 1T
was below early in the morning.
People who had the. misfortune to
wait for owl cars about that time, or
who wished to see the eclipse are will
| ing to concede all claims advanced by
1 the weather bureau and then add lit
tie on their own account. The cold is
far from dry" and, with the brisk
wind, is causing more discomfort than
the II degrees below weather with
which the week opened.
The fall in temperature began yester-
j day, when the day opened with zero
weather after a fall Of 10 degrees in
/ the twenty-four hours preceding. With
this start the mercury kept up the work
and crawled down to degrees more
before today. The weather forecasts
promise no relief but simply say, Fail
tonight and Saturday"

COUNTERPARTS OF FACULTY
NOTICES OF FAILURES.

university undergraduates this morn

official faculty envelope containing a
dreaded ssblue Slip In past years the
yellow slip has announced to students
that work in some subject has been un.
satisfactory, but this year the color OF
the dreaded documents has been
changed to blue and it was with fear
and trepidation that undergraduates
opened their morning mail.
The slips received by the undergrad
yates this morning read as follows:
tYou are hereby notified that you
did not pass in Social Science. Your.
record in the subject is failure-un-
less you attend the Junior ball concert
tonight. $751;
The announcement was printed In reg
ulation form signed by 81. B. Fierce

classmen recognized that one Of the
cleverest hoaxes in the history Of the
university had been perpetrated, fresh
men, unfamiliar with university FRANKS.

Register E. B. Pierce was kept busy ex.
planning that he knew nothing of the
announcements and that "Social

Mrs. Emma Anderson today during re-

Emma Yates are on trial Tor alleged

MRS. Anderson alluded to her co.

Attorneys Hall and kolliner to Keep
then lrare client from making q more
tOrceful argument. Her eyes snapped
and her face had thundercioud ap-
pearance and all present looked to see &c
some real excitement. She was tlnally
quoted and before court resumed was
outWardly calm.
The burst OF passion was the result
of the testimony OF Samuel Le m

internal machine" from which the hre
originated. This apparatus was intro

strung to bottle of benzine placed sew

| If things had gone as they had been
planned the candles would have been

rag fuse would have in time communi-

the man who lighted the candles was
far out of danger, the explosion would
have done the work.
It will appear, however, from the tes
timony Of Perry, who will this after
4 noon testify that he started the fire
that he had been too free with the use
Of the explosive liquids and that the
first light caused the explosion and re
