Words About Yale's New President. Yesterdays Hartford Courant says of

Yale's next president In the action of the corporation they have fulfilled the expecta- tions of all interested and have undoubtedly chosen the best man for the place under all the circumstances. They were guided to their decision in no small degree, no doubt, by the fact that he was the choice of all the faculties of the various schools of the ulaiver- sity, receiving thus the cordial endorsement of those nearest to him, those to whom he was best known, and those to whom, in their life work, the choice of president is of the closest and the largest importance. * His excellences have not been those simply of the theological professor, but he has shown large executive ability, great tact among men and wise knowledge of the world. He fulflls the demand traditional, if not actual, that Congregational clergyman of the State shall hold the office, yet he is never in him self going to earn the charge of narrowness and illiberality that has been so ''liberally" bestowed in some quarters upon the clergy of all Connecticut.
 The Springfield Republican of yesterday says: He would undoubtedly have been the choice of great majority of the graduates if they had been called on to elect president from the faculty, and in him there is expec- tation of fortunate harmonizing of inter ests. The fact that Prof. Dwight is an en- thusiastic member of the Skull and Bones ciety illustrates the possession of personal characteristics that will help to make him ac- ceptable to many of the younger generation who have been kicking against the ascendency of Congregational ministers in the affairs of Yale. He will retain in the main the Yale theory chat true university must be built upon the old college idea The professional schools will be encouraged, but four years of academic training will still lead up to the higher de- partments of study. Though the elective system may be somewhat magnifed, and the curriculum altered in that direction, the ex isting conditions will not be materially changed. The new president will be inaugu- rated July 1, the day after commencement.

The First Gun in the Encounter Be-
 tween Greece and Turkey.
 ATHENS, May 21.-Major Doumrictis has made the following report to the government of the fighting on the frontier: "While we were changing sentries at Karravitsa at one o'clock this morning the Turks opened fire upon us. We replied. The firing soon ceased and after some minutes the Turks suddenly reopened it along the whole line near Nezeros I ordered our fire to cease and the Turks also stopped. At four o'clock in the morning the Turks renewed their firing, this time with artillery from Karia. At six o'clock Turkish company advanced with the purpose of taking Analipsis. The Turks are assembling to attack our position at Neg eros. They have captured our post at Bair- aktori. This they succeeded in doing by a sudden rush. I have ordered my troops to reocoupy other positions. All is now quiet" The government has ordered the Greek com mander to avoid provoking hostilities, but if the Turks are the aggressors the Greeks shall assume the offensive.
