PICKING THEM OVER
 FOR VARSITY SQUAD
Numerous Candidates Are Busy On the GrIdlron at the University and the
 Line-Up Is Still ProblematieaI.

University. September 25-(Special.)--Th enrolment of the university continues to increase steadily, though slowly. Now that the first rush of new students Is over the increase is but a gradual one, but the friends of the institution are satisfied as the number of students now on the grounds is only some fifteen or twenty less than were enrolled during the entire session last year.
 Yesterday the football training table was begun and twenty of the most prom islng candidates for this years varsity are allowed to eat only those articles prescribed by Dr. Pollard, the coach. Fast and snappy scrub games are played every afternoon on the gridiron and are now be- ing supplemented by signal practice every night for an hour or SO.
 The most promising candidates at pres- ent, for quarterback. are Harmon and Foster. Both formerly played on the Ma rion Military institutes team, and the former was regular quarter last fall OH the Bingham (N. @ team. These two men are exceptionally fast and accurate and it will take some time to decide which should have the coveted position. The can- didates for the other back field positions are numerous, and 1t Is impossible to say who will be the regular men. The same is true of the line, and W. Moody seems to be the only man certain of his place. At present only one of last years varsity is on hand, but with several sub sttutes doing hard work and a possi- bility of the return before the time limit has expired of one or more of last years stars, the outlook for successful sea- son is not so gloomy as it was when col lege first opened
 Edward W. Hope, Ph. D. who for the past year has been holding the position of acting adjutant professor of Greek in the absence of the regular professor, M. C.. Burke, who Is studying in Munich, has severed his connection with the university to accept position In the faculty of the University of Illinois at Champaign In the short space of time that he has been connected with the university, Dr. Hope has won the confidence and friendship of the students and faculty alike, and it is with sincere regret that all those who know him see him leave. His successor. Roy B. Nelson of Oshkosh Wis, is now en route, and should arrive here tonight. MT. Nelson is a graduate of the University of Chicago, having received the degree of ] bachelor of arts from that institution in , 1901. Since that time he has pursued his studies there as fellowship student and comes highly recommended by those under whom his studies have been pursued.

ELLENDALE MAN DIED
AT ROCHESTER HOSPITAL
He Is Thought to Have Left Some
Property in Dickey County But Re-
fused to Say Anything About Who
Ills People Were. -s

Rochester, Mimi, April 1.-THE
whereabouts of the surviving relatives
of Archie La Point of Ellendale, N. D.,
who died here Friday with the secret
of his life unreveaIed, are being sought
for by the authorities here. Just prior
to his death, La Point appeared to regret
the reticence he hac maintained re-
garding his relatives, and endeavored
to tell something of Importance, but he
spoke English so poorly and was so
weak, that whatever he had to say was
not understood by those at his DEATH
bed.
La Point was born in France but
was naturalized as an American. He is
said to have some property in the vicin-
ity of Glendale, where he lived for
several years. He was afflicted with
,Bright's disease and came to Rochester
to receive treatment. While here he
said that his parents were dead and
that only a brother and sister sur
vived. He refused to reveal their
whereabouts and seemed to worry lest
they should inherit the little hoard he
had accumulated by years of hard
labor. al ..~ss.s
He spoke no word of bitterness
against them, but by his manner more
than his utterances, revealed the ex-
istence of wide chasnn between him
self and them. His body was turned
over to local undertaken to. await in7
structions, and in the meantime the
bank at Glendale has been. wired to
in the hope that some clue may be OBJ
tained as to the whereabouts of the
dead mans kin.

poison continued to spread. The pa
stieiit died at the end of the week with
symptoms of pneumonia. ].
This is the third case of acute in

PRESIDENTS S INHERITANCE
TAX IDEA is CATCHY

/ Washington, April ~. Members of
both houses Of congress are busy talk
ing about the presidents inheritance
tax proposition outlined in his muck
rake" speech Saturday afternoon
Some Of them like it, some of them do
not, while others pretend to be indit-
fererlt. Nearly all, however, regard
the utterance as having been timely
and as likely to strike popular chord
in all parts of the country Many
think they see new political issue
looming up in the distance.
So far as can be learned, the presi-
dent took no one inte his confidence
when he decided to make a public dec
Iaration on the inheritance proposition,
tt is recognized now that he has given
.utterance to what has been in the
minds of millions of people and his
expression, it's believed, will find en-
thusiastic response from one end OF
the country to the other. N
The constitutionality of such a tax
is questioned by some, but the fact that
an Inheritance tax was levied during
the Spanish-American war and that
SUCH TAXES &dI COllCSlSQ al many VI tliS
states is generally regarded in many
states as sufficient answer to the ques-
Etion OF constitutionality.
The advisability of such tax is
questioned BY few, although there are
some senator's and Representatives who
declare that the president has open
ed up a dangerous subject, which leads
directly to socialism. This view prob
ably is not entertained, however, by
the majority Of men in the house and
senate.
