thought died penniless at his home ia
California, have been Informed that
be left valuable estate. Harper was
born and reared IN Glover district,

what is known as the old Harper

two of his brothers started west. One
brother died on the way, but the other
two reached their destination safely.
They prosperei in California having
as many as 100 men herding their cat

wealthy. They owned mines, ranch
lands and cattle ia British Columbia,
mines and ranches ia Sonuma county,
California, and mines in Mexico
One day Thaddeus was kicked by a
horse and loss Of reason resulted.
During the We trs between the accident
and his death he lost his fortune.
After his demise nobody thought of a
will and his holdings would not pay
his liabilities.
A few days age, however, 1t was
found there were $500 in dividends
coming to the estate, and then a
search was made through his papers,
leading to the discovery Of will ex-
ecuted % years ago, in which $lT5,-
600 was left in direct requests to
brothers, sisters, nephews and nieces.
Judge J. H. Moore, Of San Jose, and
John Banks, OF Sutter county, Cali

RAYMOND WILL GO.
May Remain longer than a
month but end is near.

He Cannot Withstand the Pressure that

Special from Charleston tells some OF
the Things found out In Connection
with the Downfall.
a great many things Of interest here
are taking place IN Charleston. Some
of them are being sent ont while others
are only to be gained through guess
work. One Of the many interesting
things that has been found out Is
that Raymond will not remain
at the head of the University. The
Charleston people can predict thar
much from what the legislature has
developed already This cheering
piece of news was received Ia the fol-
lowing which has been sent out from
Charleston;
President Raymond will leave the
West Virginia University. That much
is assured. He may not go inside OF
the month, fhe may even remain dur
| ing the current school year, but his
days are numbered, and the number Is
not large.
A majority OF the members OF the
Legislature are against Raymond, and
any appropriation that the Board Of
Regents gets for the University will
be secured at thu cast 0f his removal.
This will be brought about by the
reorganization OF the board, and when
the list OF new appointments Is made
out the name Of George G. Sturgiss
will not be found thereon.
The new board will likewise be
changed In another particular. In
stead OF four democrats and five Re-
publieans, as now, there will be on the
new board three Democrats and six
Republicans.
| The light against Raymond is not a
| political one, for his strongest oppo-
nents are men of the same political
faith with himself, but 1t Is light

States great school on the part

dispute will meet face to face, eye to
eye, and the truth will be sfted out.
Well, President Raymond and his
friends are doing their utmost to rid
him of the necessity Of making good
his gossip or standing convicted Of be-
ing a common slanderer. Regent
Sturgiss, who seems to be chief hacker
for the president, has proposed in
effect that II Prof. Hartigan will
withdraw his suit, President Raymond
will resign, his resignation will be
accepted, and he will leave the State.
These are but few of the things
that the gentlemen from Morgantown
present in their brief against Presi-
dent Raymond, and they are by nc
means the worst. They are the least
offensive, indeed, for the most often
sive of his actions and sayings cannot
with propriety be mentioned in print.

As an instance of his fierce pecu-
liarlty, the beginning of his quarrel
with Prof Armstrong is cited. The
two had been friends, and when the
latter went to the Chicago University
to take course of study he bore
letters from the former that were
eommendatory in the highest de-
gree. Two years ago the regents
were asking for large appropriations
for the school, and member, who
wanted to do all for It that could
rightfully be done, met Prof. Arm
strong and asked him to mark on
the list of appropriations, made out
by the board to be asked for those
items that could best be done with
out, provided all could not be Sc
cured. The marked document fell
into the hands of Senator Fast, who
wrote President Raymond letter
President Raymond summoned
the faculty together and read the
letter, without giving the name Of
Armstrong. That gentleman arose
Immediately and shouldered the re-
sponsibility for his acts, explaining
what he had done and why, and how
how he had come to do it. President
Raymond demanded the PASSAGE of
a resolution of censure by the facul-
ty, and when Prof Truscott refused
to vote on the question, saying it
was not part of his duty to sit in
Judgment on other members of the
faculty, President. Raymond flew
into a passion and treated Prof.
Truscott in manner most undigni-
fed and inexcusable for man of
his position From that time he
had it in for Prof. Armstrong.

When young Nicely was summoned
before him in the matter Of the trou-
BILE with the Mayor of Morgan town,
the young man assured the president
that he was not leader in the dis
turbance, but was engaged in trying
to get the students who were making
the noise to desist, President Raymond
assured him that he believed him and
that it would be all right. Nicely
went away resting upon that assur-
ance, and 10 minutes afterward he
had been suspended for year. When
he applied to the courts for reinstate-
ment the committee OF discipline"
recalled him on the ground that
"there was no charge against him. >
In other words, be had been suspend
ed for a year without charge having
been made against him. Is not that
fine example to set the young men
Of West Virginia?

Regarding the trouble between
President Raymond and Prof. Harti-
gan, there are some extremely ugly
features when inside facts are brought
into the light. The suit for damages
for defamation Of character brought
by Prof. Hartigan Is based upon gos-
sip INDUCED in by the president,
attacking not only the moral charac-
ter of Prof. HaEtigan, but also carry
ing with it an attempt to smirch a
name whose fairness is dearer to him
than his own honor. Ordinarily the
horsewhip would be much more APP
proprate tribunal by which TO try the
issue than court OF justice, but
when the parties are professors in a
university the latter is perhaps the
better arbiter.
