Mercer University.

Many erroneous reports having recently
found their way into the public prints with
reference to Mercer University, the board
of trustees of that institution have ap-
pointed the undersigned to make a state
ment of facts.
As it was evident that the want Of bar
mony on the part of the president and fac
ulty was largely attributable to the lack Of
a code of laws, which should clearly define
the duties of each one connected with the
institution, the trustees have supplied such
a code, and she difficulties have all been
happily adjusted, so that there is every
promise of hearty cooperation between the
president and the faculty.
The resignation Of Prof. T. W. O'Kell,
which was before the board, was rendered
solely because of desire to devote himself
more fully to the work Of the ministry. At
the earnest solicitation of the board this
resignation has beeD withdrawn, and the
institution will continue to enjoy his valu-
able services.
Prot. s. P. Sanford rendered his resigna-
tion, saying, ''it is irreversible." The board
had no option, and the resignation was ac-
cepted. Fltty-three years of faithful
servics rendered by him have largely con-
tributed to the success of Mercer and have
endeared him not only to the board but to
thousands throughout the state. Prof.
Robert L. Ryals, for two years the efficient
assistant of Prof. Sanford, now fills the
chair of mathematics as full professor.
As to the management of funds both by
Rev. &. r. Mccall, treasurer, and by Presi-
dent Nunually, Notwithstanding the un Just
reflections and insnuations which have
come to the public eye or the private ear,
we state that there has been no misapplicR-
tion of funds on the part Of any one, nor
the loss of single dollar. We also state
that all moneys invested in the new building
were placed there by the. special order Of
the board, and that this is still regarded by
that body as q most judicious investment.
The board, through President Nunually,
Is making strenuous efforts to raise, by
January next, the S40,0 900 which are neces-
sary to secure the $4,000 proffered by Hon.
j. d. Rockefeller.
Mercer was never in q more prosperous
condition. Free tuition, which is still con-
tinued, has doubtless brought many students
within her walls, but the faithful and effi-
cient services of her instructors, coupled
with the untiring energy Of her president.
have been the chief factors In this unprece-
dented prosperity.
The b >ard at its session, just closed, after
carefully reviewing the labors of the last
two years. unanimously adopted the follow
ing: ReSolued, That we heartily indorso
the administration Of President Nunnally,
and recognize the great increase in patron
age under his administration, aud the addi'
ton Of about $50. 900 in cash, subscriptions
and notes, to the assets of the university as
the results, In great measure, of his energy
and industry.

Make Detailed Report to the Mayor.
Doubt as to the Genuineness of the
Keystone Bank Due Eills - TIE
Amount Involved in Them $925, 900.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, July l5.-The eN-
Terts appointed TO investigate the accounts
of john Bsrdsley, late city treasurer. have
made detailed report to the mayor, in
which they say they have endeavored to
discover the total amount of money re-
ceived each year at the staIe desk in the
treasurer's Office, the share belonging to the
city and state and the amounts deducted
therefrOn, 80 that the net deficiency in the
accounts of the late treasurer may be deA-
nltely ascertained.

THE DUE BILLS.
doubt is thrown upon the genuineness
Of the Keystone Bank due bill item
of 1925, ,000 The due bills are
irregularly numbared and dated, and
| this, in connection with the fact
that the experts found three blank due bills
in sheet uncut under blotter on Bards-
ley's desk, created a fair suspicion of
| their genuineness. It will be i'm
possible to prove whether these due
bills are genuine and whether the
money was actually paid into the bank, and
| if genuine what disposition was made
thereof by the bank officers, and especially
whether any of it was paid back to Bards-
ley until we have full, free aid uninter-
rupted access to the books, papers and &C.

Came Out Here a Year Ago.
From the London Pail AdH Bud1et
The other day a well-known Bond street
beautifier showed aud explained to me a
new and wonderful process for perfuming
the human body. By hypodermic iniec-
tions of sweet essences, such as white rose.
lilac, or violet, ones skin may be rendered
as fragrant as that Of Alexander
the Greats. The little instrument
used for making the injection is a
syringe of about the same size
as that used for administering morphia. #
will hold something like half a dozen
drops of essence. The operation is painless.
and one may do it for oneself with only the
aid Of ones right hand. 1t only needs to be
performed once a week, as the perfume re-
mains in the skin for that period. | was
assured that there was no risk of blood
poisoning. The beautifier said that the
fashionable ladies whom she waits on are
delighted with the idea.
had almost forgotten to mention the
fact that the breath as we'll as the skin is
rendered fragrant by the essence. Men will
no doubt find it a handy remedy for coun-
teracting the odors of tobacco smoke, which
to some fastidious ladies is $50 very Obisc-
tionRble.n The little instrument, with scent
bottle and needles all complete, can be had
for Is shillings. 1t was DR.. j. Rouseps ex.
periments for the cure of phthisis that led
to the discovery of the process. He used
eucalyptus Tor his hypedermic injections,
and the fact that the skin aud breath Of his
patients became impregnated with its disa-
greeable Odor caused him to try perfume as
a remedy.
