BIG SURPRISE TO MONARCH
First Experience With seidIitz Pow
ders Produces Startling Scene in
Court In Delhi.

On the first consignment of seidlitz
powders in the capital of Delhi, the
monarch became deeply interested in
the accounts OF the refreshing
draught. A box was brought to the
king in full court, and the interpreter
explained to his majesty how it should
be used.
Into a goblet he put the contents of
the twelve blue papers, and, having
added water, the king drank it off.
This was the alkali, and the royal
countenance expressed no signs of
satisfaction. 1t was then explained
that In the combination of the two
powders lay the luxury, and the
twelve white powders were quickly
dissolved and as eagerly swallowed
by his majesty.
With wild shrek that will be re-
membered while Delhi is numbered
among the kingdoms, the monarch
rose, staggered, exploded, and, In his
full agonies, screamed, Hold me
down." then, rushing from the
throne, fell PROSTATE on the floor.
There he lay during the long-con-
tinued effervescence of the compound,
squirting like ten thousand penny
worth Of pop, and believing himself
IN the agonies of death-a melancholy
and humiliating proof that kings are
mortal.

In a little city not many miles
from Meade, there is Rock Island
station agent, and in this same city
there is also a man who likes beer.
Nothing strange or unusual about
either. Now, not long since, the
man who likes beer ordered a barrel.
He knew the day it would arrive
and invited several of his friends in
to have a social glass. The day on
which the beer was to arrive came,
so did the beer and so did those in
vited to partake. But 10! when the
man who liked the beer went to the
depot to get it, the agent, due to
some provision in the new liquor
law, refused to let him have it.
He wired the express auditor, and
the message read something like
this: "Release beer or agent. I"
The auditor came 10 the scene of
action, and though usually good
natured, seemed a little out of
sorts. After hearing both sides of
the story he departed and the beer
still remains in the depot.

1t is the mother of college presl-

1t teaches philosophy that holds
to a personal God, divine Christ,
an immortal soul ard an imperative
duty.
1t believes that Christianity is a
formative element in history, there
fore the teachings of Jesus and Paul
should be studied as we'll as those of

Its educational work is being done
for less money than any other edu-

1t is wholesome place for young
people because over so per cent of
its students are Christians. Its
students are taught to live economic

Where the lemon Came From.

The lemon, which is going to be
dear this year on account of a short
age in the crop, has very clear his
tory. Unknown to the Greeks and Ro-
mans, it was introduced into Spain
by the Arabs in the twelfth century,
and in 1894 was being cultivated in
the Azores and shipped in large guam
titles to England.
The lemon tree. of which there are
forty-seven varieties, is particularly
fertile, good specimen in Sicily
rlpening as many as 5000 lemons du-
ing the season.

Minneapolis.-The total cost OF
maintenance in all divisions of the
University of Minnesota for the year
ending July 81, 1912, was $1.354,SS6
or an increase of $100,027 over the
previous year. Both years were clos
ed without a deficit and according to
the seventeenth report of the board OF
regents issued yesterday the fiscal
year which ends July 81, 1913, will
preparations made by the legislature
two years ago. The maintenance fund
for 1901 was $1,254,S59 making the
total appropriations for the two years
for maintenance $2,60S,745. The to-
tai appropriation of the legislature in
1911 for maintenance and permanent
improvements was $4,29S,170 compar-
ed with an estimate submitted by the
board for the next two years expense
Of $3,s69,950.
The annual report just filed with
Governor A. o. Eberhart, besides the
annual report of President George e.
Vincent, covering the work of the
university during the last biennial
period and plans for the next two
years contains the fiscal reports of
Controller George H. Hayes itemiz-
ing the expenses of every department
of the university. The increase in
maintenance during the last year, ac-
cording to the report, is due to sew
eral increases made in salaries of
members of the faculty and activities
in the extension department and i'm
provements in apparatus of various
departments, especially engineering
and medicine, which item has been
placed in the maintenance accounts.
$s7e,326 for Buildings.
During the last year there was
s1,447,562 in the university building
fund, of which $S79,326 was expended
on the various improvements leaving
balance of $568,205 at the close of
the year July 81, 1912. Since that
time a large part of the amount has
been consumed in completion of
building and in campus Improvement.
Among the important completions of
buildings had been the chemistry,
medical science, engineering build
ings, the anatomy building, general
medical building. The report also

REALTY TRANSFERRED.
Guyana Iron Mines Striking Good Ore
1 New 500 Branch
Rumored.

Brainerd.-Last week on the Guy
una iron range was remarkable for
the numerous transfers of properties
recorded.
There have been reports of contem-
plated railway building and credence
is attached to the report that the
500 line is to build west through a
region drilled in part and on the
Glenwood. This would give Duluth
another outlet to the west.
In the Bay Lake district to the
south of Deerwood, G. w. Potts of
Deerwood, has two drills at work. The
Stowell Exploration company Of
Deerwood has three drills in this
district. The Wickham land, drilled
on option by Will S. Pitt of Crosby,
and F. L. Pitt of Deerwood, has been
purchased by the Pitt Brothers.
That important deals are pending
on the range is evidenced by the visit
of a private car at Crosby, Friday,
containing officials of the Inland
Steel company and George H. Crosby.
The E. ]. Longyear company of
MlnnedpOllS, mas Qrlll at Work near
