TRUSTEES.

= ASHLAND. VA, June 9.-The eiec-
ton of a successor to DR.. w. w.
Smith, late president Of Randolph
Macon Woman's college at Lynchburg,
will be the principal business to be
transacted tomorrow morning when
the trustees Of the Randolph-Macon
college system meet here.
The W strongest candidates. one
Of whom will probably be elected, are
DR.. Snyder. president OF Wofrord col
lege. South Carolina, and DR.. w. ].
Young, pastor Of Centenary Metho-
dist church, Richmond.
Two Candidates.
DR.. Snyder Is a prominent educator
OF South Carolina and q well known
Methodist. He has been under con-
sideration for some time, and has
strong backing for the position.
DR.. Young 10 one of the ablest min
listers in the Methodist conference. He
Is now pastor OF Centenary church
Of Richmond for the second time in
twelve years, and has filled puipits in
the largest churches OF Danville and
Lynchburg.
The executive committee OF the
board OF trustees of the college met
today to map u h work for the
board meeting tomorrow.
Owing to the fact that the ques-
ton of electing trustees to I'LL vacan-
cies caused by deaths In the past year
or two Is tied up In the suit pending
in the Hanover county Circuit court,
it Is not thought any effort will be
made at the meeting next week to
fill any OF these vacancies, unless 1t
should be lone subject to the decision
of Judge Chichester in the applica-
ton for a perpetual injunction to en-
Join the board from submitting its
nominations to the Baltimore and

dist Church for approval before cleo

With that object in view his at
torney went into the Supreme court
today ans asked Justice Giegrich for
an order to compel the legal guardian
Of the estate to give Mr.. Chaloner
$4,000 more a year..
The attorney said to the Justice:

Justice Giegertch smiled and asked:
'rWhy doesn't he come back to this
State and ask to have his commit
ment for insanity sixteen years ago
set aside?"
An Old Trick.
ITS merely one Of their old tricks"
declared John Armstrong Chaloner
yesterday afternoon when news came
from New York saying that Thomas
T. Sherman, guardian of his estate,
had offered to permit him to regain
possession of his property, valued at
nearly WI million dollars. provided
he would make application in the
State courts.
Mr.. Chaloner was in a dentist chair
at Third n Franklin streets when
the news reached him over the phone.
They have been up to that trick
for years." he explained hastily leav-
ing the chair. They want me to
transfer the issue from the federal
to the State courts so hat my sanity
may be probed again. But they won't
catch me mapping. I am sane in Vir-
ginia and North Carolina and that per-
mits me to continue my fight in Uncle
Sans courts.

New York State courts to have my in

subsidiary issue. The principal is

until 1t is settled regardless of any
proposition that may come from Sher-
man or any of those affiliated with

Mr.. Chaloner made the wires fairly
buzz as he raked his guardian over
the GOALS. He spoke as II 1t was lit
tie short of brazen audacity for Mr..
Sherman to make such a proposition,
knowing that 1t had been turned down
point blank on previous occasions.
The proposition was first made ten
years ago. he said, and 1t was just a
few months age that his brother-in-
law came forward with the same over
lures.
Mr.. Chaloner left for Merry Mills
last night to spend the remainder of
the week.
