Tho ninny friends of Will Bridge woro
much surprised to ilnmr of his Uoath
during tho Christmas vacation. After an
illness of less than two weeks, ho died
of typhoid fever. Ivoss than threo weeks
boforo his death, ho posed boforo tho art
club as a footrocor. Physically, he wns
almost perfectly developed, last spring
at tho Hold day exercises, ho ran In tho
half mllo ovent against Bhoo, who boat
him by only a few feet. Ho seomed so
woll and strong, that when It was an
nounced ho was sick Just boforo tho hol
iday vacation, his friends thought It
was moroly a slight ailment.
Mr. Bridge camo to tho university a
year ago last September, from Qrinnell,
wfaoro ho would bavo graduated In tho
ol'ass of '87, but lrt tho university lie was
a Junior with eomo advance credit. Tho

tlmo for tho assistants of tho geological

ready largo collection of the department.
Mr. J. P. Rowo visited Deadwood whoro
ho examined tho newly discovered gold
Held at Ragged Top. Tho Interesting
feature of this locality It that tho oro
Is refraotory and found In a peculiar sl
llclous llmcstono and bids faro to ccllpso
any gold mines yot discovered In tho
IHlls. Ho also visited Lead, a great min
ing center, nnd gathered whllo there somo
Hno specimens of Rhyollto with dentrltlo
formation.
Mr. C. A. Fisher visited tho Hills for
tho first time and during a short stop
at Edgomont, examined tho largo and
profitable Razor Grindstone quarries
that nro found nt that place. The qual
ity of this stono Is conceded to bo among
tho best In tho United State. From
there ho made a Hying trip through tho
Big Horn mountains -to Sheridan, Wyo.,
Where ho examined tho magnificent coal
mines.
It Is certainly of Interest to ovory stu
dent of the university to know that
through the untiring zeal of Professor
Barbour, tho geological department hns

llko departments of other universities.

Tho Maxwell scrap seems to have got

understood by outsiders. Tho Barbs want
to have tho election contest decided by
tho samo thirty-one who constituted tho
meotlng the night of tho election or at
least accept tho testimony of tho eighteen
who voted for Kllllan. Mr. Abbott's
supporters think tho proposal absurd.
They say that In cither caso it Is putting
dependence on tho samo Individuals who
so often have given reason to question
their voracity. They call attention to
tho untruthfulness of somo of tho eigh
teen In tho first senior class election, tho
contradictory accounts of the number of
votes found In tho b&skot, and finally
tho dccvpllon tho s..m select few In offer
