HENDRIX HEAD TO

RENNISON ALSO QUITS
LACK OF HARMONY WITH STU
DENTS SAID TO BE CAUSE
OF ACTION.
From Fridays Daily.

From Fridays Daily.
The resignation of DR.. Alexander
Copeland Millar as president Of Hen
Idrix College was accepted at d meet
ing Of the board of trustees Of that
institution held in Little Rock yester-
day afternoon. At the same time the
RESIGNATION of Prof. S. s. Rennison
as a member Of the faculty was also
accepted, and Prof. George II. Burr,
senior member Of the faculty, was ap-
pointed to serve as chairman Of the
faculty after the resignation Of DIR.
Millar becomes effective, provided that
the board has not in the meantime Sc
cured a successor to DR.. Millar. Both
RESERVATIONS become effective at the
end of the present session Of the COL
lege, June II.
The board appointed as a committee
to nominate new president, its chair
man, former Governor Geo. W. Dona-
ghey, Rev. Forney Hutchinson of Hot
Springs and Rev. F. S. H. Johnston Of
Conway.
The news of DR.. Millar's retirement
came as a great shock to his many
friends and the friends of Hendrix
College throughout the state. Neither
he nor any member of the board was
willing to discuss for publication the
causes leading up to the action, but it
lis generally understood that a lack of
harmony has existed for some time be-
tween the president and a certain ele-
ment of the student body over various

SCHOOL
FACULTY CHOSEN
NEARLY ALL REELECTED
LIST OF THOSE WHO WILL
TEACH IN THE CONWAY
SCHOOLS NEXT SESSION.

From Tuesdays Daily
After having considered the matter
at several different sessions, the board
of directors of the Conway district
have completed the selection of teach
ers to serve during the next session.
The election of Prof. j. P. Womack OF
Magnolia as superintendent of the
schools was announced some weeks
ago, and Secretary w. B. Hubbell Of
the board today gave out the follow
ing list of the teachers for the white
school:
First Grade-Miss Caroline Muth.
Second Grade-Miss Mary Hamil-
ton.
Third Grade-Miss Ida Bragg.
Fourth Grade-Miss Neil Noe.
Sixth Grade-Mrs Ida Burns.

of the new superintendent.

MILLAR TO HEAD
A new COLLEGE
is RENDERED PRESIDENCY
METHODIST COL
LEGE AT MUSKOGEE-WILL
PROBABLY ACCEPT.

DR.. A. C. Millar returned yester-
day from Muskogee, Okla, where he
had gone on the invitation Of the trus-
tees Of the Oklahoma Methodist Col
lege. After looking carefully into the
situation and conferring with the
trustees he was rendered the presi-
deney and has the question under ad-
visement and will probably accept.
This college is an enterprise that
was started about three years ago.
The school has not opened and will
not for more than year. Under the
able management of Rev. S. F. God
dard, who has just resigned on ac-
count of the health of his wife requir-
ing a change of climate, assets worth
nearly 100000 have been accumulat-
ed. 1t is thought that they will
amount to half a million in two years.
President Millar's work the first
year will be to push the raising of en-
dowment, arrange for the erection Of
the buildings, and perfect the organi-
zation 1t is probable that the college
will have no academy or preparatory
department, and it's standard will be
high
AS the location is in many respects
ideal, the trustees and President Mil
lar hope to establish an institution
that will combine the best features of
the modern college. He will begin his
work July l.

SEEK TO LOCATE
WATER LEAKAGE
TESTS BEING CONTINUED
TWENTY THOUSAND GALLONS
DISAPPEARED FROM RESER-
VOIR THURSDAY NIGHT.

From Tuesdays Daily.
While no informal meeting of the
'waterworks Improvement board has
been held following the test of the sys-
tenn made last Thursday night, the
amount of leakage shown by the test
lis regarded by members of the board
as excessive, and Engineer Guy A.
Watkins is continuing the efforts to To-
cate the cause of the leakage.
Those in charge of the tests esti-
mate that 10000 gallons which could
not be accounted for disappeared from
the reservoir last Thursday night,
when the service to consumers was
shut off for a period of 10 hours.
While this represents a leakage of on
ly eight or 10 per cent of the capacity
of the reservoir in "a hours, Superin-
tendent Z. V. Leverett, as well as the
members Of the board regard the loss
as too great Tor an economic operation
of the system based upon the present
average daily consumption.
/ Aside from a few places where, un-
Ger the heavy pressure of 80 pounds
to the inch a slight amount OF water
was being forced through the pores of
the wooden mains, only three leaks
were discovered in the distribution
system on the morning following the
tests, and it is now thought the waste
must occur either in the reservoir OF
the supply line to the city This will
probably be determined within the
next few days.

recommendation of Congressman ia
coway is made to Postmaster General
Burleson, and the appointment will be
made by President Wilson, after
which it must be confirmed by the

doubtless require several days.

RESIGNATION Of DR.. NIL[AR
IS ACCEPTED BY TRUSTEES

matters regarding DR.. Millar's poll
cies, and that this element also had
the sympathy, if not the support, of
some members of the faculty.
The friction which is said to have
existed for several months was
brought to the attention Of the board
Of trustees at a meeting held here on
March %, when committee of the
dissatisfied students appeared before
the board and presented their griev-
ances. The board, however, dismissed
the matter by taking no action upon
the complaints, but on the day follow
ing DR.. Millar formally rendered his
resignation to Mr. Donaghey as chair
man of the board.
At yesterdays meeting it is stated
that DR.. Millar insisted upon the i'm
mediate acceptance Of his resignation
without discussion, and, although sew
eral members protested, the resigna-
tion was granted.
To the Log Cabin Democrat today
DR.. Millar said that he preferred to
make no statement concerning his res
ignation at present. He said he had
some plans for his future work, but
was not yet ready to announce them.
DR.. Millar has served as president
Of Hendrix College for over Is years,
coming here when the institution was
moved from Altus to Conway, in 1891.
He resigned in 1902 and was succeed
ed by DR.. Stonewall Anderson, who
retired in 1910 At that time DR..
Millar, who was then presiding elder
Of the Little Rock district and asso-
ciate editor Of the Western Methodist,
was again elected to the presidency Of
the college.
During his long service, DR.. Millar
has made thousands Of friends in this
and other states, all of whom will sim
'cerely regret to learn of his retire
ment from the head of the institution.
Many are hopeful that the unfortu-
nate situation may yet be satisfacto-
.rily adjusted and that DR.. Millar may
be prevailed upon to continue at his
