CRITICISM UNFOUNDED.
None of The Insurance Money has Been
Applied to The Payment For the
Fife Property.

1t has been stated in some of the
state papers that it was intended to
pay for the Fife property purchased by
the University out of the insurance
collected on the burnt machinery In
the mechanical hall. This IL done
would be fragrant violation of the
provisions OF the Morrill, fund distri-
button and would undoubtedly cause
the institution to lose the good to be
derived from that source
Acting on the information in the
papers mentioned we asked Prof. A..
r. Whitehill treasurer of the Univer-
sity in regard to the matter. BY
means of this inquiry we ale able To
state that if such is the intention ii
has not yet appeared. The only pay
ment that has been made is one OF
sixteen hundred and ninety dollars
and this came out of the G and
fund.
No other money whatever has been
paid and if it is the intention of the
board TO do so in the future 1t has not
yet been revealed by them We are
very glad to be able to state that one
criticism of the University that is be-
ing made is unfounded. The Others
however are in the main absolutely
correct.

Has Nothing to Say.

Judge Johnson was seen on the

he was an avowed candidate for the
Supreme bench. s'You can say"
said the judge, ''that / am not an
avowed candidate. had nothing to
do with my retirement from the bench
and will not have anything to say
about any movement that may be in
augurated looking toward my return
to It. 1t Is position which should
not be sought"
s'Does that mean that you are in
the hands of your friends?''
"You may take 1t for whatever you
wish 1t to mean" And beyond that
he refused to talk.

Chadwick Day.

The ceremonies attending the pre-
sentation of magnificent sword to
Capt. French e. Chadwick at Morgan
town on October 10th promises to be
we'll worthy of the occasion and the
event will be the most notable Of its
kind In the states history says the
Wheeling News. Capt. Chadwick,
who is the commander of that gallant
cruiser New York is native of old
Monongalia county and it is entirely
fitting that the people among whom
he was born and reared should show
him high honor for his services to the
nation. A magnificent sword is a
most appropriate gift for the COM
mander and a substantial token of
the esteem in which he is held by his
old friends and neighbors. The pre-
sentation will be marked by the pres
ence of many notable men OF the state
and nation who will deliver addresses.
Such affairs as these are inspiring and
we cannot have too many of them.
They glorify the strength and the
greatness of the republic as exempli-
fed in the achievements of its heroes
on sea and land and they stir up the
fires OF patriotism in young and old

CONVOCATION SERMON.
DR. Buchanan of the Presbyte-
rian church breaches it.

Large Congregation is out TO Hear
] It-0ther Ministers of Town Take
Part-Theme is s'Life a Trust
Similar Sermons are to be Preached
ut the Beginning of Each Quarter.
The first convocation sermon was
preached in Commencement Hall on
Sunday evening by DR.. A. NJ. Buchan-
an OF the Presbyterian church 10
very large congregation. 1t will be
/ hereafter the policy to have a sermon
preached at the opening OF each quar-
ter at the University by one of the
ministers Of town beginning with the
senior in point of service In the town.
/ DR.. Buchanan has been here longer
| than any of his confreres and was Sc
lected to inaugurate the practice ON
that score.
| He chose for his text part of the
charge given by David TO Solomon by
the old king when near death and
when turning over the affairs of the
state TO his successor The text was
Keep the charge of the Lord thy
God. The theme was sLife trust. .
The treatment OF Il was that a mans
| life is not his exclusive property but
trust given him by the Almighty and
that an accounting will have to be
rendered of the way IN which the
trust Is managed by each.
The sermon is being very highly
praised on all sides for the simplicity
and earnestness Of the message de-
| liycred. 1t was one Of the finest ever
heard in the town and the audience
was deeply impressed by 1t.
The other ministers of town were
on the rostrum and took part in the
services. Mr.. Hannah Of the Episco-
pal church read the scriptural lesson
and Mr. McCutcheon lead In prayer.
Mr.. Barnes of the NJ p church pro-
nounced the benedietion.
The music was of very high order
and two solos were rendered by In
structors In the school of music. One
of these was vocal number and the
other was with the violin.
DR. Raymond presided as master of
ceremonies and made short address
stating the nature of the eonvocation
sermons and the causes that lead up
to their inauguration and promising
that they would be made regular
feature OF the University life.

A CONFLICT

Between Atkinson and Tr0tter Regard.
Ing The Observance Of Arbor
Day.
There is conflict Of authority be-
tween two State officials. Some time
ago Governor Atkinson issued proc
lamation designating October 18th as
Arbor Day. Superintendent OF
Schools, Trotter, believing it to be his
prerogative to issue this proclamation
as his predecessors had always done,
issued to-day proclamation desig-
mating November 10th as Arbor Day.
The question now Is what day should
the schools observe, Governor Atkin-
sons day or the Trotter day.

tracts Attention.
Morgantown was very much In evil
dence at the meeting OF the Metho-
dist conference at Parkersburg. The
people from this place and this county
took a leading part in all of the exer-
eises and the people down there were
very much taken by our representa-
tiyes. DR.. Leech was in high favor
and the press of the city speak In the
highest terms of him and The excel
lent lectures that he delivered. He
preached on Sunday in the Episcopal
church thing which is very rarely
seen in church of that denomina-
tion it being very chary of inviting
ministers of another denomination to
conduct its services
In speaking of several other Mon
ongalia men the Journal has the fol-
lowing OF interest here:
In passing it might be remarked
that there are layman Of like age in
West Virginia who have been more
energetic in the work of a Iayman
than Prof Armstrong. On the sunny
side of 40 by half dozen milestones,
he has been an active member of the
church for "a years. Aside from this
he is notably representative of the
success possible for young man to
achieve He went from the public
schools of his native county of Up
shur to the University, and by self
maintenance finished the classical
course and received the degrees of A.
b. and A. NJ. He was principal of
the West Liberty normal school for a
time, and some years ago was called
TO the chair Of English in the Univer-
sity. later being made the vice presi-
dent Of that institution. He is a
finished scholar and Christian gem
tlemen. He deserves any honor that
it is in the power Of the electoral con-
ference to bestow.
An interesting personality in evi.
dence at the conference is Rev. Lewis
Core. He returned three weeks ago
from northern India, where he had
been missionary for ten years. He
was fair-skinned youth of "a when
he went to the land of the Himilaays,
Jealous and earnest, and he returns
bronzed and matured in the work Of
converting the natives and spreading
the gospel in that far-away quarter of
the globe. Mr.. Core is native Of
Monongalia county, the son of wealthy
parents, who chose the missionary
field as his life work. He will return
to India next January.
Rev. s. l.. Boyers is another young
man who attracts attention. He Is
one Of the youngest college presidents
In the United States, being at the
head of the conference seminary. at
Buckhannon. He is member Of the
education committee of the conference
and is here for the purpose Of repre-
senting the interests of his school,

FACULTY RECORDS.
Mansfield again Rises to make a
few Remarks.

LeklSldtuTt CduuUt get IuIOFHthtIOu tUat
is wanted-Dr. Raymond thinks that
all he should give out is all that any
one should haye-M0re rOasts from
Charleston.
The following article is from the
Charleston Gazette. Mr.. Mansfield
the editor was chairman of the house
committee of finance and knows
what he is talking about in this con
neetion:
DR.. Raymond regrets that the
press of the state does not go to the
records for information about the
University instead of taking rumor.
Unless there is an improvement in
the system Of record keeping since
the last session of the legislature,
very little information can be gotten
from the record. Last winter the
Legislature asked for certain infor-
nation, and while it was such that
the law requires to be kept and re
ported, it was not furnished. The ex
PLANTATION was that no such matters
were made part of their record. If
important information and data
which the law requires to be kept
and reported are not made matter
of record, the records are not likely
to furnish much information ofvalue.
Again, if Dr. Raymond is no more
disposed to furnish the press with
reliable and definite information
concerning the University than he
was the finance committee of the
house, the press would have it's
trouble for It's pains. He seemed to
think then that such statements as
he saw proper to give the legislature,
and such suggestions as he made
were all the information they were
entitled TO have, and his judgment
must be accepted as final
In spite of the most persistent eff
forts to ascertain the true situation
at the University and its real neees
stiles, it seems that large sums of
money were struggled through under
false representations and the surplus
applied to purposes for which the
Legislature absolutely refused to APP
propriate money.
Dr. Raymond speaks of other
sources of revenue beside the money
provided by the state, and this is
another matter about which no def
mite information could be had. The
legislature has right to know Just
what monies the University receives
and the source from which they
come. Unless they come from pri-
vate requests made tor specific pur-
poses they are to be taken as so
much assistance given the state in
the maintaining of the institution,
and not as a bonus to the president.
Because these sums come from other
sources than through the state APP
preparations is no reason why they
should be applied to unnecessary
and extravagant purposes.
A complete report should be made
of al! such monies and the purposes
to which they have been applied and
the legislature can then take up the
matter in an intelligent way and
provide such additional sums as may
be required. The legislature should
require all such funds to be prop
erly applied and reported before a
single dollar is appropriated out of
the state treasury.

The Public Library.

Librarian Carr's annual report on
the condition and workings of the pub
lie library, now available in pamphlet
form, is a highly satisfactory docu-
ment. PCrusal Of it helps us to realize
that we have a library worthy in every
respect of the city. Its finances are
administered with economy; it's details
are worked out with courtesy and eff
cheney, and the books that are day by
day added TO its shelves are the select
ana enduring literature of our own
and other countries. With sufficient
capital in hand it Is not a difficult
matter to accumulate a library to suit
public library all literary tastes and
mental idiosyncracieC must be provld-
I'd for; and this is no small task.
The number of books on hand in the
Albright library in the closing month
of the year amounted in sum total
to 1898. This is magnificent col
lection in point of numbers considering
the comparatively short time that has
elapsed since the founding of the
institution. But more noteworthy is
the care and good judgment shown in
their selection. The library shelves
present no large preponderance of one
class Of literary subjects but a we'll
rounded representation Of each depart
ment Of literature, kept ever in the
van of progress. Mr.. Carr, it should
be said, Is careful administrator of
the funds placed at his disposal. He
has not even made a requlsition for a
telephone, prefering instead to buy
hooks with every available cent. Con-
siderlng the amount of work that has
to be gone through in the time in
which they are on duty, Mr.. Carr's
assistants have a great deal tc
do and their patience and skill
are we'll tested, Moreover, il
is work which requires classified
knowledge and constant and undeviat.
ing attention. Imperturbable good hu.
NOR is a first requisite on their part
and library patrons do not find It alb.
sent Scrantonians may we'll be proud
of their magnificent library and of it,
administration.
