CAPT. FLETCHER ACCEPTS.
He Will Be Military Instructor at the
A. & NJ College.

A. & NJ. College.
The new military instructor at the
Agricultural and Mechanical College will
be Capt. Edwin l.. Fletcher, a retired
army officer now residing at Hampton,
Va.
Capt. Fletcher is a native of New
York State. He entered West Point
in 1868, and was retired as captain in
1895, for physical disability. During his
service in the army he was on the from
tier. Also in early life he served in
the Franco-Prussian War, his father ut
that time being in the diplomatic service
in Europe, as Secretary of Legation.
From 1887 to 1890 Capt. Fletcher was
on detail as professor of military science
in the Arkansas Industrial University,
and he comes very highly recommended
by the president of that institution.
Capt Fletcher is a man of middle age,
of pleasing address, and will no doubt
influence the cadets fayorably. he Will
come prepared to take charge of the
discipline of the College and instruct
in military science.
Capt. Fletcher arrived here yesterday
morning from Hampton, Va, his home,
and spent the day at the College with
President Winston. Last night he re-
turned home to arrange some business
matters and get a detail from the gov
eminent for duty here. Being retired
army officer, this is necessary. He viii,
when he arrives, live in the College, or
very near it. His family for the pres
ent will remain in Virginia.
A battalion of cadets will be formed
at once, preparatory to beginning mill
tary instruction. Officers for it will
probably be appointed today.

State, both from the State and the
private schools.
There never was a time perhaps in
the history of our State when public
sentiment has been in a better condition
ON the subject of Education, and this
interest should be shown along with
other great interests Of the State at the
Fair.
IL you will make an exhibit write at
once to Capt. G. b. benson or to my
self.
/ have no interest in this matter what
ever, except for the cause of education
Let whatever you do be done quickly,

POWERS ARE DISTURBED
It is reported that Great Britain's i'm
mense military preparations against two
insignificant republics are viewed with
considerable curiosity in some of the Eu-
ropean capitals, notably Paris and st.
Petersburg. Notes have been exchanged
on the subject and it Is even limited in I'M
official quarters that inquiries will be
addressed to the British government as
to the contemplated absorption of the
two republics by the British empire.
The Press association tonight announces
with an air of authority that the govern
ment's plan is to terminate the war in
the shortest manner possible, after the
forts at Pretoria and Johannesburg have
been RACED, and then to promulgate, by
an order of the queen in council, a new
constitution for group of five federal
states-Cape Colony, the Transvaal, Ma
tai, the Orange Freezes state and Rho
desia-under the title Of the Dominion Of
South Africa, the crown to nominate q,
governor general and the five states hav-
ing power to elect it's own lieutenant gov
ernor and to have local legislatures with
a dominion parliament to meet at Cape
Town. With some notifications this
scheme is based on the same lires as that
of the Canadian government
