Vernillion, s. D.; Dec. 1o.-students of the
state university are up in arms in regard to the
action of the authorities in collecting a guaran-
tee fund of So. each at the beginning Of the
year without any accounting therefor. They
nave gone so far as to appoint q committee to
wait upon President Gault and request him to
secure the necessary Information for them. II
they do not receive satisfactory answer In re-
gard to the disposition Of this fund they promise
to carry the matter to higher authority. = ~
: The trouble arises over guarantee fee which
Is required of each student for breakage and the
like. The understanding at the beginning of last
year was that the breakage would be summed up
and proportioned to each student except, IN
cases where individual responsibility could sbe
liked. This the students did not object to last
year, and many even went SO far as to assign
their balance to the athletic or debating boards.
But now they claim to have discovered irregu-
larities. that must be Strengthened out. se-js
In the first place the students allege that no
moneys have ever been turned over to athletics
or debat ting from this fund altho there should be
several hundred dollars in the hands OF the sec
rotary of the university. According to their es-
innate S1,100 was paid in by the students last
year as guarantee fund. At the close~o of the
yearS when the losses were figured up, 1t was
announced That each student was liable for
$l.5O, or half Of the amount Of his guarantee, A
few received their balance when school closed
In June, but the majority did not receive q
cent. - ~ 'S -
Another irregularity charged by the students
IS that some of the professors, by virtue of
their taking studies. in conjunction with their
WORK as instructors, were obliged to put up
the guarantee fund but were remunerated IN fni1
at .he end OF the year, as were also their chill
dren who are in the university. This polio

ltasca county, will be postponed until June
next as q result Of application for a con-
motion for continuance was given on the first
day OF the term, but it was not expected any
thing would be developed on the hearing which
would be productive Of delay. To the general
puDl1c's surprise 1t was shown that Miller has
recently suffered paralysis from the presence Of
a clot Of blood on his brain, and that the strain
incident to a prolonged trial might cause his
death. 49,. - -. -.-,..--
The affidavit setting forth these facts was
made by DR.. c. NJ. Storch, one of the leading
physicians Of the county. The prosecution did
not question the accuracy Of the diagnosis made
by Dr.. Storch, but requested the defendant to
submit to q confrmatory examination to be
made by DR.. RUSSELL together with some ply
stefan from Duluth. To this consent was re-
fused and the court was obliged to determine
the question: on the original showing, the out
come being as stated.
