STATE BOARD OF
REGENTS TROUBLE

Miss Goodwin Doten writes a letter to
the press in which she says she was the
young woman spoken of by Chairman
Oscar J. Smith in his communication.
Miss Doten's communication makes 1t
necessary for Chairman Smith to write
another letter. Miss Doten says:
In last evenings paper an article ap-
peared in regard to the position of liz
brarian in the University. 1t is therein
stated that the position was offered TO
a graduate of the University, who re-
fused it. 1 am the young lady referred
to and I am led to believe that the
Regents are entirely unacquainted with
the conditions attached to the offer |
desire to explain just why refused.
For two years 1 have been anxious to
obtain that position and had been as
sured that should a vacancy occur
should be the first applicant considered.
Early in the spring of the present year
DR.. Church, who is chairman Of the
library committee of the University.
came to me with the following offer: /
must agree to go to an eastern college
and study for full year in preparation.
entirely at my own expense, and then
take the library at a salary of $500 per
year. Moreover, 1 must agree to go
away for several summers thereafter
and continue my studies and researches;
and must bind myself to give my entire
time and attention to the library work
ambition and interest.
1 was very anxious to have the place,
but these conditions to a person in my
position were simply absurd. l told DR..
Church that l would gladly go to
Berkeley and spend three or four months
in preparation, and would obtain all the
assistance possible from the librarian or
the Carnegie library as well as from
university librarians. But nothing would
be satisfactory except full compliance
with the above conditions. 1t is needless
to say / could not consider the offer at
the inadequate salary proposed, and that
is why / refused.
With reasonable conditions and the
salary which has been offered to. Miss
Armstrong of Fresno, California,
should gladly have accepted the posi-
ton. Very respectfully,
GOODWIN S. DOTEN.

The mysterious Stranger u

Ben. F. Russell, the veteran editor
of the Steelville Mirror, who is in
Jefferson City attending the legisla-
ture, gave out the following lines on
the November election to some of his
friends at the capital this week:
Up from the North ON November day.
Bringing Democracy fresh dismay,
The affrighted statehouse gang with a roar
Forgot to pray and wickedly swore
The mysterious stranger not seen before
Down from Iowa was ON the way.
For thirty long years had the contest waged.
Some of the soldiers were gray and aged;
Some were recruits with youthful tread,
Who bravely marched where Roosevelt led.
They walked with Walbridge and with him
cheered;
They followed the banner that Swanger
reared;
They filled the ranks Of Hadley's brigade
Over the mountains and across the glade.
They had mounted the heights of the state
house hill,
Where but one redoubt is standing still.
hey bore the flag with the crimson bars, -
With the field of blue and the glittering
stars. =
They planted 1t there that November day
TO kiss the sun and wave for aye.
With mournful tread and backword look
Went Dockery down with a wink at Cook.
Poor Seibert wept and Allen cried,
And they wished Folks horns had gone with
the hide. r'.
The mysterious stranger we hailed that day
Has taken his place, and has come to stay
Il only the men in the battles din
Who won the fight shall deserve to win.

Fatal Hunting Trip.

Green Packer, we'll known young
farmer, was accidently shot and killed
while out hunting near his home six
miles southeast of Laclede on Thurs.
day Of last week. Packer was on a
brush pile trying to scare out rabbit
when shot gun in the hands of M.
Brewer, was accidently discharged.
Packer and Brewer were only few
feet apart and the full charge of shot
struck Packer in the head killing him
instantly. Packer was young man
of excellent habits and his death is
sincerely regretted by all. He was
conYerted and united with the Metho-
dist Church, during a revival held at
Prairie Mound Chapel on the Sumner

The Lycsum Course.

Don't forget that the best part Of
the lyceum course is yet to come. Ar.
rangements have been made with the
Chicago bureau to reduce the price OF
our tickets. The next number is the
Lyceum Stars-a musical company.
Master William Cooper, violinist,
is prodigy in the violin. He has
won every medal for which he has
contested, to competition with all the
students of Chicago. Miss June Nafe,
| who received her education under the
best masters of New York City, forms
part of this company. She has a
soprano voice of rich, sympathetic f.
bre and great range, and has mastered
the difficult art of pronouncing words
so that the audience has no difficulty
in understanding what she sings.
Miss Nafe is also fine pianist. Miss
Oranne Truitt, reader of great re-
nown, appears with the company.
People like fun and she furnishes it,
with sufficient solid matter to suit all.
This company of young people
comes highly recommended wherever
they have been sent by the Lyceum
Bureau. Each is a star. They will
appear at the opera house January
19, and it is hoped that many will
avail themselves Of the privilege of
hearing them. ...,-
