In a letter to The Winnipeg Free
Press which had misquoted him,
President McVey gives his conception
Of the duties Of the president of a uni
versity. The letter read as follows:
MY Dear Sir; In5your report of the
meeting at the University of Mani
toba on Thursday afternoon, / was
made to say that the duty of the pres
ident Of university was to be the
servant Of the faculty in the admin
istration of the universities affairs
What I did say was this: That in
some universities the conception of
the function of a university president
was that the president was the SER
want Of the faculty. 1t is, however,
rot my conception of his function, and
in view of the fact that the question
is raised in this form, should like to
state just briefly my conception of the
office OF a university president
Leader and Counsellor.
In no sense is he an autocrat, but
IA leader and counsellor, seeking to
keep the university in touch with the
larger fields Of social, industrial and
scientific activity. 1t Is his business
net by a system of espionage, but
through consultation and discussion
with the heads OF the departments
regarding the work being undertaken.
He should have ever before him the
needs of the university as a whole,
constantly attempting to balance the
different departments in such way
as to keep the institution from being
warped in any one direction. 1t Is his
further business to organize the bud
get by the help of the deans and heads
of departments. SO as to secure a
clear-cut statement of the income and
expenditures of the university In the
matter of the the promotion of men
his judgment should always be called
upon for final determination as to the
wisdom of giving a man a larger place
and position.
Works by Persuasion.
He presiies over all meetings OF the
faculty and the council, and attempts
to work through persuasion rather
than through coercion. He is the out
look Of the university organization,
attempting to keep before = the or
ganization Of any new service that tht
institution can perform in its relation
to the public. In addition to this, he
has the official correspondence of the
university to attend to and the calls
for advice from the different colleges
regarding the needs instruction and
expenditure Of funds. There are, in
the main. the duties of university
president If he Is to be successful,
he can never be an autocrat or develop
a species OF Ceasarfsm In his adminis-
tration. If you will publish this state
ment, shall be obliged. especially in
view of the fact that the former state
ment of my position was distinctly
wrong and unsatisfactory to me.
Yours very truly,
F. L. McVey.

| suppose by the time they reached

that he had recovered and hurriedly
told them of what had happened
They did not stay with the man whom
l had shot, but came on in hot pursuit

were making better time down the
rough mountain than | was.
At last they came so near hat l saw

quickly hid behind q large pine tree.
and in a few moments they all rushed
by me, being led on by the rafting
footsteps of my horse, which they
heard ahead of them. Soon they be-
gan firing in the direction of the horse,
as they no doubt supposed | was seat
ed on his back. AS soon as they had
passed me l climbed farther up the
steep mountain, and, knowing that l
had given them the slip and feeling
certain l could keep out of their way,
l at once struck out for Horseshoe
Station, which was twenty-five miles
distant. l had very hard travelling at
first, but upon reaching lower and bet
ter ground l made good Roadway,
walking all night and getting into the
station just before daylight, footsore,
weary and generally played out
l Immediately walked up the men of
the station and told them Of my ad-
venture. Slade himself happened to
be there, and he at once organized a
party to go out in pursuit of the horse
thieves.
We had a brisk ride and arrived In
the immediate vicinity of the thieves
rendezvous at about 10 o'clock In the
morning. We approached the dugout
cautiously, but upon getting in close
proximity to it we could discover no
horses In sight. No one was inside,
and the general appearance of every
thing indicated that the place had
been deserted; that the birds had flown.
Such indeed proved to be the case.
Among. one of my earliest acquaint-
ances was a young man, older than
myself, who was destined to become
famed in frontier history, while at the
same time legendary gossip has caused
his career to be somewhat misunder-
stood owing to its varied character.
This was James B. .Hickok. who, al
though his name was James, will live
in song and story as "yVild Bill"
While probably no man In western
history had so many notches on his
gun, it may be said that no man re-
corded them oftener in defending right,
enforcing law and dealing justice.
In our early youth we were associ-
ated in many adventures on the plains
in Indian warfare. wagon trailing,
hunting and trapping. and we hap
pened to be on the same side of the
fence when the civil wal between the
north and the south left the plains al
most alone to the red man.
"Wild Bill" soon became n of the
most nored men In the confidence of
the Union generals In the extreme
southwest. He was a magnificent

ably they assisted him in their de-
struction. But with his faithful bowie
knife he never faltered until all was
quiet, calm and still, for he had struck
savage blows, following the devils up
one side of the room and down the
other and into corners striking and
yelling until he felt sure that every
one was down.
Hickok was wounded by three bull
lets and eleven buckshot and cut in
thirteen places. 1t was six months be-
fore "Wild Bill" fully recovered from
the results Of what was one of the
most thrilling exploits in border story
lone that is not created by the ro-
mancer. but is well authenticated
that "Wild Bill" In single handed o n
fiet killed ten men. men of the most
desperate character.
