VIII Be Made in the Faculty and That
Not Certain-Presidency May be offered
to Hon. william L. Wilson.
6seesaL 10 ta~ Rs0IHs--
MoRGANTowN, w. VA, June 13.-At
$50 tonight not one word Of informa-
tion mas been given out by the Board OF
Regents, or any member Of it as to
what the Board has been doing.
All the preliminary work has
been done, and nothing now remains
but to elect the President and other
mem bers of the faculty. II is almost
certain that no President will be elected
this year but that Prof. Reynolds will
continue as acting President.
ALL OF THE PROFESSORS
will be elected for one year only, as
they were last year, and there is no
probability tonight that more than one
change will be made. 1t is as yet un-
decided but very probable that Judge
Okey Johnson will take the place
of one of the professors In the
Law Department, either Brooke or
Wiley, more likely the latter But two
votes we're thought to be necessary this
afternoon to elect Johnson, and it is
said tonight that he has secured them.
The Board will be in session very late
tonight and will then adjourn. as most
of the Regents will leave for home in
the morning.
The REGISTER can state very POSI-
lively that but the one change, II any,
will pe made in the faculty this year.
1t has been suggested that the matter
of a President will be left open, so that
it may be offered later to Hon. William
L. Wilson, II his health will not permit
him to make the canvass for Congress.

THEY Will NOR WORK.

rbs wheeling Greek Miners Met LA,t
Night, and Decided TO stand oGt for
seventy Cents-Over Two Hundred at
the Meeting.
The miners over the river are just as
much disinclined now as ever TO accept
she proposed compromise. 1t is report
ed that TIE mines az Wheeling Creek
will be started with non-union men soon
If the old employees do not accept the
Sixty cent rate next Monday, but those
IN a position to know would not deny or
affirm ;he report that the big mines
would be started with new workmen, II
the present miners did not so to work.
II the Company decides to start the
mines nOn-uniOn, il is then that the
greatest trouble yet is TO be feared.
There is not a doubt that II the mines
ara started under these conditions, it
will be ne cessary to have a guard over
them constantly.
LAST evening Local No. Is Of the Uni
ted Mine Workers Of America met In
the Miners Hall in West Bridgeport
The members OF this Local are prtnci-
DalIv the workmen OF the Wheeling
creek coal mines, and il represents over
Eve hundred miners, being the largest
Local in this locality. What the work

Looked forward TO with the greatest In

'tEe soldiers were anxious as 20 its result.
II is thought, as this body Of miners Is
the strongest 10 this locality, that the
decision they reached would be largely
oo0ied after by the miners az Flushing
and other points along the C., H. & w.

UNIVERSITY CADETS.
A Closer Relationship Suggested Between
Them and the National Guard.

Specfdsto ths RsSt're-.
MoRGANTowN, w. VA, June 13.-
The excellent discipline maintained
among the University Cadets and the
skill which they have attained under
Lieutenant Ramsey in military matters
have given rise to suggestion that
they be given place in the National
Guard. II is submitted in argument
that the State pays their tuition and
supplies them with everything except
their board, end should have their SER
vices in return whenever they are
needed.
Lieut.. Ramsey has given special at
tention to the training OF the cadets
which will fit them for National Guard
officers, and the experience they would
gain in cases OF riot would render them
much more efficient as future officers or
members of the Guard. With such a
training school for the State troops as
there is here, and the experience few
campaigns would give them, the Ma
tional Guard might be easily built up
into a much more efficient body than 1t
even now Is.
Whether the cadets be given place
as q company
IN THE NATIONAL GUARD,
or be graduated from the University as
officers of the Guard, 1t is probable that
some connection between the Univers-
ity cadets and the State troops will soon
be established.
The cadets had their final drill and
parade this afternoon and their last
guard mount this morning. Both were
well attended. The medals offered by
the Board Of Regents, were awarded as
follows: Drill and discipline, to Charles Z.
Mccoy, the silver medal for highest to-
tai score at target practice, to Sergeant
James II. Collins, the silver medal for
highest single score at target practice,
to Second Lieutenant John w. Hughes;

New Beetle Discovered.
Speeidl 70 bss ns1tss.-.
MoRGANTowN, w. VA, June 13.-
The work at the Agricultural Expe j
ment Station was never in better shap
than now. DR.. Myers says there has
been no friction whatever at the Station
in the last year, but that everything
has moved along smoothly and perfect
harmony exists. For the first time, the
Station now has considerable ground
under cultivation, where, under the di-
rection of Prof. Rane, numerous
experiments are being carried on, par
ticularly as TO the varieties OF fruits or
vegetables best adapted 10 this climate.
A number Of fruits and vegetable from
Japan are being experimental upon,
some of which are new to this country
and are proving we'll suited to this cli-
mate. Prof. BOpkins has
JUST DISCOVERED A BEETLE
for which naturalists have been looking
many years in vain. II is the beetle
from the eggs Of which come the worms
which ruin so much chestnut timber by
their borings. The worm has long been
known, but so long as the beetle which
lays the egg was unknown, IL was al
most impossible te destroy it. Prof.
Hopkins has secured numbers OF the
larvae, and has carefully noted every
phase connected with their develop
ment into the pupae and then
the beetles. The beetle IS one
that has never been known
before, and belongs 10 q
species OF which but three families
have ever before been discovered.
This discovery will doubtless be the
means OF saving much OF the chestnut
tim Der which abounds in this State, but
which is so often rendered useless by
this little worm.
