Om for Ue.OO lavolvtax Am A libel suit of $50,000 has just been instituted by Rev. A. H. Kan. dahl. of Highland Grove, Minn., against tne Lutheran Augustana Book concern of this city. The suit is brought against the branch office of thin concern located at St. Paul, which, of course, is equivalent to a aait against the synod's printing and publishing concern in this city. The charge made is defamatory libel, based upon the ground that-the pub. lishing bouse in ptinting the minutes nf a conference meeting held by the Minnesota conference at Vasa, Minn., last May, published certain charges of fraud, improper conduct and gen. eral crookedness in business pre. ferred by an investigation commit tee against the above named pastor at tne meeting of said conference, The plaintiff also includes the syn od s otnciai organ, tne Angnstana, published in this city, charging the said paper with libel for having pub lished a report of tne action taken t y the synod at its meeting in St. Ieter, Minn., last June, to which body the case bad been appealed. The action taken by the conference was suspension of pastoral privileges until tbe pastor sbould make suita ble confessions. This the pastor had failed to do, and instead has brought his cause as an appeal before the synod. This body sustained the conference in its action, and expelled tne pastor, wno now, not only per sists in exercising the prerogatives of a Lutheran pastor, but absolutely refuses to resign bis present charge. Just what claim the pastor can maintain against a printing estab lishment which has been engaged to print the minutes of a certain con- ference, the writer fails to under stand. The case certainly promises a numoer oi interesting sensations which is indicated by the half dozen serious charges that are made against the pastor. College Motes.

An address was de livered on this occasion bv Rev. Prof. E. A. Zetterstraod, of the college.

The pro gram, which, by the way, was the best ever rendered by the societv. consisted of music and song, select readings, among which was also the reading of the society's official organ, the Business Argus. The principal feature of the exercises was a most able and eloquent address on the life of Abraham Lincoln, by the institu tion's vice president, "Prof. C. W. Foss. The large commercial ball was literally packed with a most ap preciative audience, many of whom had come from the twin cities. For an hour and fifteen minutes tbe speaker held his audience spell bound, during which time he graph ically pictured tbe causes which led to the greatest war in the world, the late .rebellion. At tbe conclusion of the exercises. Prof. J. E. Uustus, on behalf of .the society, presented to the professor a handsome floral trib ute, as a slight token of the esteem in which he is held by the members of the society. J. E. G.
