HOWARD's NEXT PRESIDENT.

Many Men of Prominence Mentioned
For Coveted Position.
The selection Of new president for
Howard university in Washington will
not be an easy matter. There is no
dearth Of candidates, but to discover
from the array Of material the man Of
intellectual breadth, moral strength,
winning personality, constructive gen.
ius and executive ability, such as DR..
Thirkield is and what his successor
must be, will tax the wisdom of the
board Of trustees, to which body this
duty will fall.
1t Is evident that there will be no
undue haste in filing the vacancy, and
the fitness Of every candidate will be
fully tested before a choice is decided
upon. Since the financial future of
the university is practically secure be-
cause of the federal appropriations
that will come year after year the ar
gument that white man must head
the school In order to influence con-
gressional favor becomes less forceful.
There is a general feeling that the
time Is ripe for the election Of COM
petent colored man for a school that
is essentially Negro institution,
though not officially styled as such.
Many of the white members of the
board and Of congress have expressed
themselves in sympathy with this idea
and will lend their support to the right
colored man brought forward for the
position. Friends of the school are
raking the country with a fine tooth
comb in their effort to pick out a Ne
gro educator who is likely to I'LL the
bill. IN
Some Of those mentioned In this con-
nection are Kelly Miller, George W.
Cook, Lewis B. Moore, w. v. Tunnel
and q. L. Parks, all deans of depart
ments or members of the present fac
ulty of the university; Roscoe Conk-
ling Bruce, assistant superintendent Of
the Washington schools; Judge Robert
81. Terrell of the municipal court; w.
q. B. Dubois, 81. T. Healing and 9TH
ers Of equal prominence.

says the Baltimore Afro American

such things will continue to happen.

WARN AGAINST
 SPEED MANIA
MORE CARE MUST BE TAKEN BY AuTolsTs OR THEY WILL BE
 HEAVILY PUNISHED.
Judge Archer Puts the "Pledce" Plan on Trio Fined in Police Court for
 Exceeding the Speed Limit.

In fining three automoblists for speeding over the city streets yester- day morning in police court, Judge Jack Archer took the opportunity of delivering a lecture on the subject which should serve as warning He assessed $l5 fines against each, but informed them that the fine was very nominal, and was merely small in dication of what future fines would be.
 Judge Archer also told the autoists that in consideration of the small fines they must make a pledge not to tear through the city streets at rapid paces any more, and that if they did, and were arrested, they would be fined heavily on the next offense.
 There is not a day passed in Hot Springs but some person witness one of those marrow escapes" which mean only being hair breadth from death on the part of some man, wo1n' an or child. They keep getting closer and closer, and still taking more chances and more chances.
 Park avenue and Malvern avenue are the particular temptations for the speed bugs just now. There is some extenuation in the speed used on these streets, because the autoists have no other place to try out their machines, but there is not enough extenuation to prevent a heavy fine for speeding to a dangerous limit, and there is not enough extenuation to prevent some radical action on the part of the public if recklessness causes some unfortu- nate to be killed or maimed for life to satisfy a speed craving.

To the surprise of Dr. Cato, who has charge of the hospital, and the nurses, ant his friends, Hatch made a recovery.
 Instead of being in his grave as tho hospital authorities predicted tou months later found him on a visit t' his old home in Portland, Maine.
