Trustees 10 Recommend That the
University BE Opened TO GirIs-The
Recommendation Not Apt TO he
Adopted.
Athens. Ca. June 1A-The Belcher case
comes up before the faculty tomorrow
morning. The opinion prevails that on
account Of the harshness of the terms
used by Belcher concerning PrOfs. Bocock
and Hooper the trustees Will not give him
his diploma.
The board Of visitors will make their re-
port TO the board Of trustees to-
morrow. 1t will contain a recon-
mendation that the doors of the
institution be opened to girls This
was recommended several years since. but
the board Of trustees paid no attention TO
the recommendation. 1t is probable It
will meet the same fate this year. Some
other recommendations of the board of
visitors, which have not yet been made
public, will certainly raise a storm when
they come 10 light. They relate to the
management of the department of En-
glish, the professor of which department
is very popular here.
Considerable comment is made concern
ing the youth of three members of the
visiting board of five teachers. Two of
them have had only four years expert
rience as teachers. and one of them only
two years.
The trustees have reapponted IT. C.
Moreno tutor in mathematics and have
chosen Moses GuYton as tutor in ancient
languages, and J. G. Smith as fellow in
biology.
The trustees will make application to
che United States government for a spe-
cial army officer to take charge of the
military affairs Of the college. No change
will be made in the rules governing the
literary societies.

Held for Trial in the Sum of 100000.
RICHMOND, Mo-, Sept iS-After some
preliminary s1irmishing between local
attorneys who have been retained in
the close, DR.. George w. Fraker waived
preliminary examination before JUS
tice A. A. Mcquiston yesterday and his
bond was fixed at $2O OOO DIR. Fraker
made his appearance in court attended
by Sheriff Holman and Capt. Farris, one
Of his attorneys. The prisoner was
scrupulously dressed and seemed con-
tented. A very large crowd was pres
ent, both at the courthouse and around
town. The feeling is unmistaka bly, in
Fraker's favor here, as it is the general
belief that no crime can be proved
against him. The prisoners gentle
manner and unobtrusive ways, in spite
of his notoriety, has also gained him
many friends. 1t is the opinion that
DR.. Fraker will not attempt to give
bond,
