Y., yesterday afternoon. His father, who has been with him since his removal to the hospital, and his roommate, Richard Girven, accompanied the body. Dean J. R. Effinger, who visited Lindner's father yesterday, said, "It was a sad case, but I have been im- pressed by the spirit shown by the students of all classes who volunteer- ed to assist in the nursing. Everybody seemed willing and anxious to help." The fresman literary class, of which Lindner was a member, decided yes- terday to send flowers as a mark of their sympathy. The death, coming directly after a day of rapid improvement, was the climax of a remarkable battle for Slife which has been raging for nearly three weeks. During the latter part of his illness, Lindner was perfectly conscious of all that was taking place around him, being well aware of his condition, and that there was no hope for him to re- cover. His father, the physician and nurse, were the only ones present when he died. His two brothers, who had been with him previously, were unable to be there. ORATORS URGED TO BE READY.

Police Fail to Apprehend Eccentric Novelist for Distributing Circulars After a baffling search instituted by the police department since Monday to apprehend Toh Major for distrib- uting circulars said to be of a suggest- ive nature on the campus and in that vicinity, the police believe that he has sought refuge in flight from the city. They placed a close espionage on Tom's favorite haunts in this city, but the eccentric novelist, and man of many cognomens proved too wily to be entrapped, and eluded the vigilanceof the officers. It is believed that Major was tipped off to the police's activity in his behalf by well-meaning friends, and after put- ting the ability of the police depart- ment to a fair test to locate him, he left before Ann Arbor became too warm for his further sojourn.

This year's Michiganensian is pro- gressing remarkably 'well according to the year book editors. The work is much farther advanced than at this time last winter, in regard to both the editorial and the business sides of it, and the outlook is exceedingly bright for putting out an unusually fine book. A number of artists are hard at work on the various heads which have been assigned, and almost all the advertis- ing contracts are in. Copy in the fraternity section of the book must be in by 6:00 o'clock to- night, so all organizations of that charactei which have not seen to this should do so at once. The only crit- icism that editor Newhall has to make of the way things are going is that the seniors are slower than usual in getting their pictures taken for the book. The pictures should be taken or at least dates should be made with the photographer at once. FIRST NUMBER OF TECHNIC TO APPEAR DECEMBER 1. The first number of the Michigan Technic for the year will be distrib- uted on December 1. The book will contain a survey of the work of Prof. H. E. Riggs, the new head of the civil engineering department, written by Prof. C. T. Johnson. There will also be an article on "Up-to-Date Photogra- phy" by Ward Davidson, '13E.

Prof. Roth tooksoccasion to make clear his stand in the little controver- sy he has had with Chief Moore of the United States weather bureau, There seems to be a difference of opinion' as to whether or not forest growth tends to prevent ,floods and washouts. The great majority of scientists are of the opinion that such growth does in a great measure help to prevent floods while it seems that a few scientists and a number of politicians hold that it does not. Chief Moore has taken this latter view and has had some litera- ture published and sent out to the va- rious . weather stations. Prof. Roth simply stated his opinion and he let it be thoroughly known that it did not agree with Chief Moore's.

Our people have an increased reverence for the laws of God and man. Every fibre of heart and head thrills with gratefulness to the Divine Father. "Therefore, I, Chase S.

COACH DOUGLAS WILL REMAIN HERE DURING WINTER MONTHS The closing of the interclass foot- ball series does not necessarily mean the end of Coach Douglas' work for the year. As long as the soccer game is played he will be in full charge, and it is not likely that the season will close before the latter part of December or at least until snow prevents the con- tinuance of the sport, During the winter months Douglas will take the class - basketball management under' his wing and organize the various de- n"rtment hockey teams.
