COLLEGE PRESIDENT SHOT.
The Head of n COlored Institution
Fatally Wounded.

JACKSON, MISS. January S.-News
has just been received from the Alcorn
Agricultural and Medical College for col
ored people, near Rodney, Miss, that the
president of the college. L. Triplet, was
shot and fatally wounded last evening at
G o'clock as he was on his way to attend
prayer-meeting. He was shot in the back
by an unknown assassin.
For several years there has been a
great deal of discord in the college ia
Guilty. The trouble has been caused by
some members of the college faculty
who have been trying to remove Triplett.
for the purpose of personal aggrandize-
ment, but the Board OF Education has
refused 10 carry out their wishes In
the faculty troubles and the bitterness
there engendered, it is possible that
clue may be found TO the killing. Trip
lett was universally esteemed by whites
and blacks. He was a man of intelli-
gence and good judgment.

News Confirmed That the SPANISH
Fleet Is in Santiago Harbor.


Fleet Is in Santiago Harbor.
Washington, May 26.-Madrid re-
ceived news Wednesday that Admiral
Cervera and his fleet are pocketed in
Santiago bay. He entered there last
Thursday, with the Infanta Maria
Theresa, Vizcaya, Almirante Oquendo.
Cristobal Colon and the destroyers Plu-
ton and Furor.
1t became positively known here
Wednesday night that Commodore
Schley's squadron, reinforced by the
battleships Iowa and Indiana. is out
side Santiago planning the destruction
OF the armada. Naval officers say that
the operation will be difficult one, but
concede that the Spaniard has little
chance to escape.
Meanwhile, Admiral Sampson, who
had been off Havana, sailed thence Mon
day, and his destination is unknown.
The belief prevails, however, that
bolnbardmentis not far off, but whether
at Havana or San Juan is unce rtain.
Little News Given Out.
Washington, May 26.-Reports were
current that an army Of invasion was
about to start for Cuba and Puerto
Rico. It was based on the conjecture
which has been current of late, but Off
Gals in authority gave it no indorse-
ment, as it was manifestly contrary to
public policy to give any advance in
formation of such move even if it were
contemplated.
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1898-05-31

IT IS estimated that within a range
of 600 yards the small caliber rifle of
to-day will kill as many men as it
wounds, and beyond that range the
numbers wounded will exceed the num-
Der killed. With a killing range of
three-quarters of a mile, with smoke
less powder, and firing ten shots for
every shot fred by the old-time rifle,
the slaughter in modern warefare will
be infinitely greater than any yet
recorded. Happily, surgery has also
made great strides and the skill that
heals can compete better than ever
with the skill that wounds.
