GOOD FOR CLEMSON.
Or. Newman Declines the Presi-
dency of the Florida State
Agricultural College.

Anderson, July 12.-The trustees of
the Florida State Agricultural and
Mechanical College seem determined
to get president of that institution
from Clemson College, this State.
Some time ago the position was offer
ed to DR.. P. Fl. Nell, the president
of Clemson, who declined it. Then
the trustees offered the place to Dr..
]. S. Newman, who holds the chair
of agriculture at Clemson, and is
director of the experimental station.
The position pays better salary than
Prof. Newman has been receiving at
Clemson, and at first he was disposed
to accept it. He made trip to Flor
ida however, and after looking over
the field and familiarizing himself
with the conditions there he, too, de-
clined the proffered presidency and
announced that he would remain at
Clemson.

Deseneracy Dlsproved.

There are people who declare that
the. country is going to materialisn
and d radiation. There are even
people W prove this awfuI condi-
tion by ..vlated examples Of midi
vidual oegenaracy. But at last We
have the final word on the other side.
The Worlds Work devotes itself in
July to showing the finer side Of
American life, and to proving, by
moss interesting articles and inter-
estirlg pictures, that the conditions
are becoming better every day; that
our schools are better; chat our ap-
probation of art is better; that we
buy more pictures and books than
any other people in the world; that
our charities are conducted with
more skill aud Judgment than they
ever were before; that there is less
dish onesty, and that the cultivation
of the arts and of the higher life is
making rapid strides-keeping pace,
in fact, with the great increase in
the material advance of the people.
This helpful review has been worked
out with success, and the pictures
add very greatly to the interest of
the number.

The fire loss of the United States
and Canada for the first six months OF
this year aggregates s172. 900, as
compared with $50, 900. COO IN 1908.
The New York Journal of Commerce
says The startling feature OF the
statistics we present is that, deducting
the cost of the Baltimore conhagra-
tiol1, the losses for the first half OF
1904 are almost Sl9, coo, coo more than
those for the same period Of 1908.
That FIRE underwriters should be
greatly discouraged in view of the fact
that insurance rates remain practical
ly unchanged is not Surprising" A
cor Siderable part Of the loss is attribut-
ed to a desire to obtain the insurance
money, though that is merely an as
sumption.
