A LOYAL FACULTY
 Al STATE UNIVERSITY
STATE lN.TITUTION IS RECOVER.
 ING FROM ILL EFFECTS AF IFS !.
 RECENT STUDENT STRIkE, ' ',
Morals Infl@ence There as. Good as Any Institution of Learning in This
 Country.

Little Rock, Aug. 14.-Just at the present time, there is no subject of greater interest to the people Of Ark ansas than the plans under way for the betterment of the University of Arkansas The institution has suf- fered sorely from the student strike and other troubles, but a devoted faculty is doing everything in it's pow CT to reduce the injury to minimum Perfect harmony exists among the of ficers and teachers, and they have the cooperation of all patriotic citi- zens.
 The religious and moral influences at the University are positively good, says Acting President J. H. Reynolds There is a Y. M. C. A. secretary on a salary, who devotes all his time to Christian work among the students lie Is a strong, scholarly Christian man, being a graduate from Yale For the Y. Nj. c. A. there is also a salarled secretary a woman who de- votes all of her time to Christian work. There are but few universities in the South that spend so much for such work. In addition to this. the professors are practically all Chris tlan gentlemen, most of them beine active workers in their respective churches. For instance, in the Bap- tlst Church, Dr. Brough and Prof Briscoe teach Baraca classes of Uni verslry students; Prof. Mather, a nor nal class; and Mrs. Briscoe a class or University girls. In the Methodist Church one professor serves as super. lntendent Of the Sunday School; Prof Droke instructs a class Of 100 Univer. slty boys; Prof. Thomas has a class of men; and Prof. Jones a class ot university women Prof. Shannon has large class in the Sunda, school of the Presbyterian Church. IT fact, the most active workers in tho several churches of the city are Uni Verslty professors. Moreover, many O the professors teach Bible classe.

IDLE GOSSIP.

The Bridge Commission took a step it pulled off a speedy inquiry to get at the bottom of some idle talk that reflected seriously upon the integrity of the body as a whole and individual ly, and cast suspicion upon them as mon of fairness and honesty of pur- pose The result was that the Bridge Commission convinced the public that reports circulated to their detriment were absolutely without foundation, at least MT. Collier admitted during the inquisitorial session that he had gathered the idea from a statement made by Attorney Oracle, after a friendly conversation had taken place between the latter and a lawyer friend of Little Rock, during which there was absolutely no reference whatever to any bribery methods or any intimation that the Commission or any of it's authorized agents had such a thought in mind.
 There has been entirely too much presumption on the part of some peo- pie since the creation of the Free Bridge District. It is a serious matter to accuse honest men of unfairness or dishonesty, when their motives lave always been above suspicion and only prompted by spirit of enter prise and for the public good. The Bridge Commissioners need no refer cHce at the hands of any newspaper or men. They are men of the high est honor and sincerity and the fin snr of suspicion should not be point sufficient reason and there has been nothing in their conduct thus far to warrant it.
 Whenever men are in public offices, notwithstanding the fact as ill this instance that they are not. receiving remuneration, there is natural ten- dencys on the part of many persons U misjudge them. If man makes sa charge against man he ought to have sufficient evidence to back it up and whenever man accuses others of dishonesty and cannst sustain his. q isjIsess with the facts then the pnb- lic doness 10 the conclusion tfIat the changes lare brought for no other pur- pose than to create sentiment or to

Edinburgh, Scotland, Aug. 14.-Brit- ish medical authorities have not yet recovered from the remarkable state ment of Dr. George Alexander Gibson, physician of the Royal Infirmary, Ed inburgh, which he made at a recent meeting of the British Medical As sociation in London, to the effect that he had been successful in making a youth of eighteen grow seven inches in six months. The boy is the son of friend of Dr. Gibson and was anxious to get into military school. To do this it was necessary for him to accomplish the seemingly impos- siDle feat of growing four inches in six months. An appeal was made to Dr. Gibson, who through the employ ment of a typhoid extract, a potent substance influencing blood distribu- tlon and nutritive possibilities in the most powerful Way-Worked the mus Gle of stretching the youngster from a height of four feet eleven inches to five feet six, inches in the specified period. The fact that the boy obtain ed one of the highest places in the entrance examination to the academy proves pr. Gibson's assertion that his cerebral functions had been in no wise disturbed by the treatment.
