CHANGES IN CLEMSON FACULTY.
profS. Perkins and Barrow Tender
designations.

Clemson College, Oct. 4.-Prof. W.
R. Perkins, director of the agrcultur-
al department, has resigned to accept
a position with the Delta Farm COM
pany, in the Mississippi Delta. Prof.
Perkins will have the management OF
the company's 10,000-acre farm, at a
salary of $1,000 and percentage,
which will more than double the SAL
ary. The company has 5000 acres in
cotton alone.
Prof Perkins's resignation will be
effective November 1, and his depar-
ture will be a distinct loss to the col
lege. Under his administration both
the agricultural department and the
college farm have made splendid prog
ress. A man of progressive ideas, yet
conservative and cautious, he has won
the confidence Of everybody here as to
his ability, and he has already made
in the two years he has been at Glenn
son many friends among the farmers
all over the State.
Another recent resignation is that
of Prof. D. n. Barrow, who has gwen
up his position as superintendent OF
the extension work and institution di-
vision, which he took charge of when
it was established, and which has al
ready made such, progress and devel-
opment, so that now it IS one of the
most potent factors in the work which
the college is doing for the agricultur-
al development Of the State. Prof.
Barrow is leaving college Jrk en-
tirely, and will engage in commercial
work in Texas, where, on account of
family reasons, he finds it necessary
to locate.

London, Oct. 4.-Information is in
complete as to whether the Turks SUI
fered casualties in cne bonlbardment
Tuesday and Wednesday or whether
Tripoli has surrendered.
It is reported from Rome that ne
gotiations for the surrender OF Trl-
poll will be entered into today. 1t is
also uncertain whether any Italians
landed, but the contingent of the ex-
peditionary force has left Italy, and
according to Malta reports the occu-
patton Of Tripoli will begin today or
Friday by the landing of contingents
from the Warships.
The postofice anu the Italian con-
sulate at Malta are accepting mail for
Tripoli, and the consul has told news
paper correspondents that they will
be allowed to land in Tripoli Friday.
While Italy is thus carrying out the
programme of establishing herself in
Tripoli, the Turkish government is in
a helpless tangle. The ministry is yir-
tually non-existent, dissensions be-
tween the Young Turks and the men
of the older regime rendering the
adoption of any definite line Of policy
impossible.
For the moment all talk Of media
ton or peace negotiations has been
relegated to the background.

Turkish Gunners Are Reported t.

London, Oct. "A Rome dispatch
from Tripoli says it is believed that
the garrison has suffered very heavy
losses and that the governor is wound
ed. II appears that even after the
demolition of the fort the Turkish
gunners continued to serve such guns
as were available. 1t became neces-
sary for the warships to train their
guns upon the ruins. several private
houses were destroyed by fire, but
none was struck by shells. The town
has been entirely deserted by the in
habitants.

: Dierba, Tunis, Oct. 4-Tripoli has
been bombarded twice by the Italian
fleet. The first shot was fired shortly
after 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon.

party was the French consul general,

was stopped about 70 mites from
Tripoli by boat >ron the cruiser

No Sign OF Life.

There was no s.5n of life in the
city, which appeared ceserted, but the
Turkish flag flew from the castle and
forts. The first shots were directed
toward Chrcehatetti fort and later
Kerekereche fort was shelled.
AS the first shells burst over Trlpoli
the garrison seemed to awake. It re-
:urned the fire with v.gor and energy.
A heavy cannonade was kept up on
both sides for few minutes and then
firing became desultory. So far as
could be seen no warship was hit.
Vice Admiral Faravelli at o'clock
ordered his ships to cease firing to
permit the town to surrender, but no
sign was given, and after few min
utes the ships began again.
Great Havoc Wrought.
This time great havoc was wrought
Fortifcations were razed, the forts
suffered severely and the lighthouse to
the northwest was DESTROYED by shells
from the Garibaldi. There was no
means of knowing what the loss OF
life was in Tripoli, but ample oppor-
tunity was given the defenders to es-
cape.

BECALMED IN BAY
Forced to Throw Out Anchors on
Account of Tide

Weather conditions were exceptionally
trying at the Atlantic Yacht Club yester-
day. The Sea Gate organization was
scheduled to manage the third race to
count on the yacht racing championship OF
the lower bay. At the usual starting nour
the wind was light and from the north-
west Hardly had the boats crossed the
line than the tickle breeze petered away
and for more than two hours the boats
were practically becalmed on sheet OF
water that was as smooth as glass.
To make matters worse. the regatta COM
mittee. made up Of DR.. John f. De Mund.
chairman, Carlos de Zafra and Walter
Sykes, jr., had chosen course with
long windward leg against a strong eno
tide With no wind and the tide taking
them out to sea, many OF the boats had
to throw out anchors and wait for the
conditions TO improve As the day ad-
vanced a slight breeze sprang up from
the south and the yachts were able TO go
once around the course. Although the
race was cut in half, It was exceedingly
late when the last craft was timed.
Under the conditions there was little or
no interest in the struggle. The . class
was made up of the Soya, the Spider, the
Suelow and the Alice. The boats were sent
from the starting line off Sea Gate to AM
trose Channel buoy No. 10, then TO Fort
Hamilton Bensonhurst and back to the
starting line Again the Soya showed her
superiority over the newer creations, and
won by minutes and seconds over the
Spider. another old craft. 1t is the third
straight victory scored by the Soya.
The winning boats in the other classes
made runaway matches. In the handicap
class the JOY was the first boat to finish,
bat on corrected time tie Careless won by
Il minutes and So seconds from La Guiana,
the last boat to cross the finish line, on
actual time. The Skeets won by even more
astonishing figures among the dingies of
the New York Canoe Club. The boat de-
feated the North Star by % minutes and

in the S class, and the Merry Widow led
home the knockabouts of Gravesend Bay.
