lures.
From Wednesdays Daily.
An interested and enthusiastic
audience granted Dr. Purinton IN
Commencement Hall yesterday af-
ternoon. Professor Armstrong made
few Introductory remarks, speak
ing of DIR. Purinton's former connec-
tion with the University, and giving
him warm welcome home to his
alma mater.
A burst of hearty applause greet
ed DIR. Purinton as he stepped for
ward to deliver his lecture ON 'sAb-
normal Consciousness" He began
by giving a number of definitions Of
Normal Consciousness. The defini
ton preferred by him was: Con
seriousness is the minds intuitive
knowledge OF itself and its states
and acts" He said" Consciousness
is not a faculty of the mind in the
ordinary sense of the term 1t is
concerned with the operation of all
the mental faculties; ! know that
feel and / know that / will. Con.
seriousness is not subject to the
will"
He divided abnormal conscious
ness into four forms:
|. Somnambulism,
2. Hypnotism,
3. Hallucinations,
a. Multiple Consciousness.
Under these various heads he out
lined the phenomena that are char
acteristic.
la the evening President Purinton
spoke again, his subject being ethics
of College Life" This was a
thoughtful and interesting address.
He said that everybody connected
with the college is responsible for its
ethical life. The college president is
a unique personality. He is distinc-
lively representative man. He rep
resents the students before the facul-
ty, the faculty before the Students; he
represents the faculty before the Board
Of Regents and the Board of Regents
before the faculty, and above all he
represents the whole college before the
public. His position gives him great
power in influencing the ethical life
of the college. The personal influence
of the professors is also very great
upon the students. Many students
may fail to penetrate the lecture in
the class room hi1t avan tho 1t,llast

SOME USEFUL ANIMALS
Who are Never Hungry and do Not
Have to Eat.

The machinist employs a dog on his
lathe; he takes hog cut if the tools
will stand it, and the castings are
made from pigs of iron
A mechanic puts his work upon a
horse or buck, and punches or bends
it by convenient bear Hosting is
done by crab, and convenient cat
is part of the outfit of shop crane
and kit of tools is ever on hand.
A crow helps to straighten work,
a jack to lift it; mule pulley aids in
driving machinery that a donkey
engine turns. A fish connects parts
end to end, or strengthens broken
beam: shells are used all over; worm
does powerful but quiet work.
A cock shuts off the water, one kind
of ram lifts it and another does heavy
work. A printing press has fly,
the first locomotive had grasshopper
valve motion and drive and butterfly
valves are common.
Herring bone gears are used by the
best builders, turtles fit printing
press cylinders and fly wheels are run
ming all over the world.

TEACHERS ELECTED.
School Board Finally Selects
the Pedagogues,

Preference Giyen to Home Peoplc-til
Who Passed the Examination Elected
The Names OF those Appointed-New
Teachers Chosen Other Matters Of
Interest Done.
The school board held session on
Thursday night and succeeded in elect
ing teachers for the coming year.
The election had been postponed from
time to time from various reasons
chief among which was the fact that
the grades OF the examinations had
not been prepared on account OF there
having to be several OF the examina-
tions held.
eleven o'clock and they certainly had
4 hard task before them. That they
settled it at all is tribute TO their
patience aud ability. The election of
the applicants from Morgantown was
first taken up and every one who liy
ed here and who had passed the test
was elected to place. These were
as follows: Miss Villa Brand, Mr..
Clyde Barbe, Miss Laura Shisler, Miss
Stella White, Miss Minnie Wotring,
Miss Josie Kunkle and Miss Ella
Simpson.
Election of teachers to I'LL the re-
manning vacancies was then begun
and five additional teachers chosen.
They were: Florence NJ. Taylor of
Steubenville Ohio, Ethel earle OF
Clarksburg, Mrs. Ella Martin OF Cairo,
and Miss Abigail Aull Of Johnstown,
Pa.
No one was assigned to have charge
of the school on the avenue the but
assignment will be made later.
No teacher was elected for the col
ored school as no one who took the ex-
animation applied for that place and
it will have to be supplied by the
board.
The position of first primary teach
er was not filed but this was placed
in the hands Of the perintendent
some time ago and he win I'll the va
cancy. One of the best primary
teachers in the country will be secur
ed.
No principal Of the high school was
elected and this matter was left in
the hands of the board who will supply
a man for this place. The placing OF
the teachers in the various depart
ments was left entirely to the super
intendent who will assign the teachers
TO the work that they are to perform.
The idea in the election OF teachers
was to give the home talent the FIRST
chance and the board feels that 1t has
done everything In that direction that
1t possibly could have done.

ROLLER RUNS AWAY.
Sl Get Roller Keeps up Excitement on
Walnut Street.

The heavy roller that is being used
by the contractors on the streets crea-
ted great deal of excitement on Wal
nut street yesterday evening. 1t
broke loose while being hauled up the
street on account Of the bolts break
ing and started down the street.
The racket made was considerable
and a great many people were attract
ed by it. The workmen pluckily
stopped the ponderous machine be-
fore it got under full head way and be-
fore any damage was done, Had it
gone into one of the houses on the
street it would have done great deal
of damage. AS IL was nothing was
hurt.

HARD WORKING OFFICER.


The following complimentary item
appeared in the Tampa, Ella. J
Times, of a recent date. "a recent
order from the war department
makes Captain Robert l.. Brown de
pot qHartermaster at this place, in
stead of assistant quartermaster in
charge of depot. Captain Brown
will in few days be relieved from
duty here and will take a much
needed and well earned rest for two
months. He has been faithful
hard working officer here ever since
the war begun, and has earned and
merits the confidence and respect of
the people. The captain is not quite
the strong specimen of manhood that
he was when he first came among
us. but it is hoped a rest will restore
him to his usual vigor. Capt. Frank
W. Woodring will relieve Captain
Brown Of his duties at Tampa"

What 1t Will Do.
Chadwick Day Depends on us Entirely.

Abundant aid-Every Thing Ready Tor
us to do Our Part.
Morgantown must now say what
it will do toward the celebration of
Chadwick Day. A great deal more
money than was expected has been
raised over the state and it is now
for the town at large to take up the
task of raising the remainder needed
One thousand dollars is provided.
This viii get the sword and insures
that it will be very handsome one
But this is the smallest part of
the cost. There will be the invita-
tions to look after, the decorations,
the military. the speakers who are
to be present and a number of other
essentials that will require money
and lots of it,
All this money shonld be raised
by the business men who will be di.
rectly benefited by the celebration.
Thousands of people will be here
and they will leave money in hand
fulls While this part Of the affair
is not the one that should be consid-
cred yet it has great weight with
some people. The real reason for
raising the money is that the affair
has been turned over to us and we
should not let it fail for want Of
money.
No other town in the state can
dispute our right to hold the eele-
bration at this place and we should
make it what it should be for the
credit of those participating and of
the state. All the other places men
toned have waived the claims made
and none of them have the same
claim that we have on the occasion.
But Morgantown must do her part
Nothing that could be asked of any
one else remains to be done and this
place is now the one that must
shoulder the burden. There is no
to shirk this and when
the chairman of the finance commit.
tee comes around the people APP
preached should do the very best
they can for the occasion.

The truth is coming out at last
about the Philippine war. The best
newspaper correspondents in the
field unite in declaring that Gen.
Otis has underestimated the serious
ness of the situation and persistent
" suppressed news unfavorable to
the American arms. Ia signed state
ments they declare that Gen. Otis is
unfit to command our troops in the
Philippines. These charges come
from source that cannot be ignored.
They also say that the Filipinos are
better armed and stronger than they
were when the war commenced. 1t
seems we have an Improbable and
endless job on our hands As Prent
Dolliver says il we whip the Filipi-
nos we may begin to derive some
good from the Islands in about five
hundred years.

encouragingly of the outlook in the

for any length of time and that the
war is going to cost the United States
much more than the country is going

statement that the war has been bad
