CLEMSON MAN TELLS
OF The COMING YEAR
MANY IMPROVEMENTS TO BE
MADE
FACULTY CHANGES
Anderson People Hear of What
College Authorities Hope To
Accomplish During Session
FACULTY CHANGES

member OF the faculty of Clemson
college spent yesterday in the city.
ana while here talked very interest
ingiy to reporter for The Intelligen-
Ger about the plans now being made
by the college for the coming scs-
sion. Seine changes are to be made
III the faculty, and some improvements
are to be made in the buildings and
taken all In all, Clemson will be able
to do more and better work this year
than she has ever done before.
The total destruction Of the college
laundry by the fire last week makes
1t necessary to erect q temporary
maltoshift at the old stand, in which
limited amount of absolutely neces-
sary laundry machinery will be in
stalled. in order that the cadets laun-
dry work may be done when the col.
legc opens in September.
Meanwhile, work on =. u new. larger
and better equipped plant will he
rushed during the fall. Prof r. r,
Lee, the college architect, is busy
with the plans for the new plant and
the president announces that as soon
as possible work will be begun so rs
to complete the new laundry before
the bad weather of winter sets in.
President Riggs has announced the
following changes in the faculty and
the extension work force: Prof. J. G.
Conan, who resigned In June to en-
gage in cotton mill work in Coving-
ton, Tenn, will be succeeded as as
sistant professor Of yarding and of
spinning by VIM. G. Blair, Jr., of
Rhode Island, who is a graduate OF
the we'll known New Bedford Textile
school and has wide experience in
practical mill work.
l.. o. Watson, who for several years
has been experimental field patholo-
gist in plant disease work done nv
Clemson college in cooperation with
the United States department of ag-
riculture, has been put In charge uI
the recently extended work along this
line and will probably have headquar-
ters at Washington part of)the time
and in the cotton belt somewhere part
of the time. MIR. Wason is another
graduate who has done things. After
graduating in the Gloss OF 1908, he
engaged for year In chemical work
and after further study he returned
to Clemson, ar experimental field pa
thologist, whore he has rendered great
service, especially in hig- work on cot
tv.l wilt.
Mr.. Watson's place at Clemson will
be filled by another Clemson gradu-
ate OF tho class of 1908, c. A. McLen-
don, who has since his graduation.
been most of the time botanist at the
Georgia experiment station, where no
has given much of his time to
plant pathology and especially cotton
diseases. He will be equipped to
succeed MIR. Watson.

BAILEY FAMILY
OUT in FORCE
Reuion Yesterday Was One Of the
Best That Family Ever Held In
Anderson County

Anderson people know good ma
ny OF the Bailey family and some may
be foolish enough to think that when
a score Is counted, TINT would cover
the entire generation but look-in yes
tcrday while the reunion was In full
swing at the home OF Mrs. Becky
Poole. ,amout three miles north OF An
derson, their mistake would have been
evident. Baileys were there from all
over the country. from the city OF
Anderson, from the county OF Andcr-
son from Georgia from North Carolina
and seemingly from almost every
spot on the globe. All told, there
were about 150 people In attendance
during the day.
No more delightful spot could have
been chosen for the affair than was
Mrs. PoOle's. With the tall shade
trees, green grass and pure springs,
the place was idcul and the many
guests commented freely upon the
iuct.
BY the noon hour the whole p!anta-
tion was overflowing with Baileys OF
every description and then the picnic
dinner was spread on the spring
grounds. Words will describe the
surrounding but hungry man could
never find words to tell OF the de-
lightful delicacies composing that me-
nu. Every imaginable dish was there,
all splendidly prepared, and when the
entire family had finished feasting,
there was enough left for an army.
The afternoon was spent in recre-
ntions Of different kinds and when the
party began to separate and start for
their home, with one accord, they
voted that the Bailey family had never
had a more successful reunion than
was this.

SOMETHING WORTH SEEING

What Is probably the cleanest act
OF vaudeville ever brought to Ander-
son Is. the squartette now showing at
the Bijou theatre. 1t is rather mys-
terry how Manager Bristow happened
to secure these people as such acts are
rarely seen except or the big circuits.
The stage settings and electrical eff
fectS are magnificent. while the work
OF tho equilibrists and contortionists
Is far beyond the average Of this kind
OF entertainment. The crowd In at

probation by much applause of the

Anglo-French Forces
 Win and Lose

Paris, Aug. 31, D. m.-An of- fcial statement issued this evening summarizes the situation as follows:
 "On our right, after partial checks, we have taken the offensive and the enemy is retiring before us.
 'In the center we have had alter nate cheeks and successes, but a gen. eral action is now being fought.
 "On our left by series of circum- stances which turned in favor of the Germans and despite lucky counter attacks, the Anglo-French forces were obliged to give way. As yet our armies, notwithstanding a few incon- testible checks, remain intact
 '"The morale of our troops is excel lent in spite of considerable losses which also are being filled from regi- mental depots.''

PROF. PHELPS MAY COME.
Surgeon Major Blue May Send Him to
 Examine Filter Beds.

AS a result of Mayor George A. Quigley's visit to Washington it is probable that Professor Phelps, form erly of Yale, may come to this city to examine the filter beds. Professor Phelps is an expert on sanitation and sewage disposal.
 Mayor Quigley was introduced to Surgeon Major Blue of the United States army, who has charge of na- tional sanitation, by Congressman Augustine Lonergan. The mayor told Major Blue of New Britain's sewage troubles and the army officer agreed to make an effort to send Professor Phelps to this city. If Professor Phelps comes it will be with no ex- pense to this city as the visit will be arranged through the state board of health.
 Mayor Quigley, City Engineer Hall and President Humphrey of the board of public works were in Read ing, Pa, Saturday and inspected the sewage disposal plant of that city. It is a very elaborate system and in- cfudes the pumping of the sewage three miles. The trade wastes in Reading are turned into a nearby river.

WAS IN MEXICO CITY
 IN BIG BOMBARDMENT
Visitor to New Britain Saw MaderO Government Overt1lrown and
 Narrowly Escaped Death.


 Mrs. S. Allen Dyer, of Mexico City, is an interesting visitor to New Britain for a few days. Mrs. Dyer left Mexico City several months ago but was there for three days at the bom- bardment of the city at the time the Madero government was overthroWn. MT. and Mrs. Dyer were living in a fine apartment house and when the firing started many shots and some shells found their way through the building, giving all the occupants a narrow escape. At another time in making her way out on the train north to the United States, the train was held up, federal troops were put aboard and passengers and all were off ito fight the rebels," not knowing for a time whether they would be at tackled or not. MT. Dyer is assistant manager for the General Electric company in Mexico and he, with one son, has remained in the city, but aside from the anxiety that every American experienced for the various nc embers of familieis, who, through business duties, were separated one from the other, the Dyers did not suffer any serious losses.
 Mrs. Dyer is an interesting talker and to a Herald reporter told many thrilling and amusing anecdotes of her life in Mexico, especially since the revolution started, over three years ago. She is visiting her friends, MT. and Mrs. H. K. Lee at 21 Walnut street, leaving tomorrow for Boston and will shortly return to her home in Mexico City,

France May Move
 Capital to Bordeaux

Washington, Aug. 31.-France is considering the advisability of moving the seat of her government from Paris to Bordeaux as a precautionary meas ure, according to official advices re- ceived here today.
 The French foreign office has dis cussed the idea of moving the capital with foreign diplomats, so that they could make proper arrangements. It is considered most probable that Am bassador Herrick will remain in Paris in order to better care for Americans should Paris be invested by the Ger man army.

Order Applies Only
 To Detached Forts

Paris, Aug. 31, 6:25 a. m.-The de- cision of the military authorities to clear the zone of forts around Paris does not affect the zone imm ediately surrounding the old Notifications of the city. It applies only to detached forts such as those at Mont Valer- fen, Issy and others.
 Under this decision all the build ings and small structures of no great value surrounding the forts will be pulled down. Steps have been taken to provide shelter for all homeless persons.
