Tuesday night the banquets of the

and at both of them resolutions ware
passed requesting the authorities to

Alumni Want Trustees.
Much Interest Is being evinced over
the formation of the alumni society,
and their proposal to secure, If pottl-
tile, places on the board of trustees ror
two alumni of tbs Institution. Tht
authorities are very much pleased over
this evidence of Interest In the men
who have gone forth In years pssl.
The plan Is to have the legislature
at Its coming session add two members
to tbs board of trustees, end these two
members ate to be named by the alum
ni society. A meeting will he held
Thursday afternoon to perfect plana
looking id this end. The alumni so-
rlety will also apply at that time to the
legislature for a charter, thue giving
them a permanent and substantial en-
tly.
Professor Malheaon announces that
In addition to the address of Dean
Russell, of Columbia University, that
Governor Terrell, Hon. John Temple
Craves, Hon. X, E. Harris and Hon. Joe
Hill Hall will msks short addresses at
the commencement exerclaee at the
Bijou theater Thursday night, and will
afterwards attend the alumni banquet,
where each of them will respond to
tossts, in addition to the responses
from a number of graduates.
Commencement Exercises.
The commencement exerclaee at the
Bijou on Thureday night will be open
tg the public, and Professor Matheson
states t[ist he hopes to see as many of
the people of Atlanta there as can poa.
sibly come.
In addition to the medals already
announced, there will be a medal given
by The Railway Herald for the best
thesis In mechanical engineering.
Thursday morning the students will
don their overall! for tbs last time
ihla aesalon, when they report to the
shopa and mill to give an exhibition
of the practical work which they are
trained to do. While the school Is In
no sense simply a manual training
icbool, yet that part of the training Is
considered a very valuable portion of
the course, In that It glvaa to the fu
ture engineer an Idea of exactly what
can be accomplished under ordinary
working condlllona.
Matheson Will bs Named..
At their meeting on Thursday the
trusteee will take up the election of a
iroaldent to All the place of the late
<yman Hall. Professor K. O. Matheson
as chairman of the faculty, has beei
tht actual head of the Inetitutlon for
the past year, and there seems no doubt
whatever that he will be elected for
the position. A Southerner, highly cul
tured and trained, he will make an
Idaal head, it has been due to hla
untiring work that the donation of
ISO,000 was secured for the erection of
a library, something of which the In

DEPLORABLE SHORTAGE
IN DIRECTORY MARKET
You Can’t Get a 1906 Name Book For Love
or Money—Growth of City
the Cause.
Thera la a shortage In the Atlanta
city directory market. You can't get
one foj love nor money. There has
been none on the market since the
first of March. J. W. Hill.- who gets
out the directory, hss been sdvertlelng
In the papers regularly for three
months In an effort to buy coplee from
thoae who have subscribed and possi
bly do not need them as much'as they
Hint thought they did. Ha can't gat
them, however, even by offering the
original purchase price, plue s liberal
premium.
The shortage la due to the great
growth of Atlanta, says Manager lull,
who waa Importuned Wednesday by a
reprsaentatlve of The Georgian, who
had orders to get another directory.
"I hml a greater subscription list for
the 1804 directory than ever before,"
he said, "but printed an extra 140
copies anyway. Before the first of
February nearly every one of these
had been purchased and by the first of
March not one was left. Beveral new
firms In the city, organised since the
first of tbs year, have begged and Im
plored me to get directories for thsm
and I have been advertising, but so
far have not been eucceesful In getting
one." .
If you happen to have a directory
you don't need, Just communicate with
The Georgian.
HERBERTDITTLER'S VIOLIN
DELIGHTS LARGE AUDIENCE
Herbert Duller, Atlanta's young and
gifted vlollnst, made Ills Aral public
appearance at the Bijou Tuesday even
ing. By 1:10 o'clock the theater wae
nearly ntled with an audience of sev
eral hundred people—many nf them
who felt In Ills young artist a warm
personal Interest, who would never
have dreamed of being critical, how
ever meager the performance; and
numbers, on the other hand, who were
curious to ascertain for themselves
bother Herbert Dlttler really pos
sesses the genius accredited to him.
When the youth came upon the stage
his |ieisonallty Immediately tvon Ihv
sympathy and Interest of his audience,
end surprised those who hail never
seen him. It le evident at a glance
ttgu he iHieseasee both genius and tem
perament. The slenderness of his fig
ure gives the Impression of exceeding
rrallty. The sensitive face which re
flects every passing emotion, the won
derful eyes, dark aa If with some an
cient tragedy, and the pensive mel
ancholy of his expression belong to the
artist who forever commute with "the
thlnga which are. unseen.” The hende,
long, sensitive, deft, are those of a
maestro. A personality which makes
Its appeal, and a magnetism which
compels response, even before the bow
drawn arroaa the airings!
Difficult Program.
The program rendered by Herbert
Dlttler would have taxed the powers
or any virtuoso, but It la not too much
to nay that to each number he gave an
Interpretation which was not only soul
ful. hut highly Intelligent and dignified.
When he began the "t'oncerto." by
Vleuxtempe, there waa evident In hla
bearing a nervousness which marred
Ihe effect of an attractive stage pres
ence. but this disappeared entirely aa
the violinist loat himself In hla work.
fils rendition of t'urelU's "La Kolia"
was mssterly. To It he brought ease
and correctness of technique. SS well
as sympathy and eantlment.
The treatment of Handel's "Honatn
A Major" was broad and dlgnlfled. The
"Halide at Polonaise," by Vleuxtempe,
was well Interpreted and was present- j
By SELENE ARMSTRONG.
It would scarcely Justify our bestowing
wero'hla technical ability not accom
panled by something finer. It Is In his
rich temperament and In the soul of
Ills music that power Ilea. The qual
ity of his wurk Is essentially feminine,
as the music of I.lsst, for Instance, waa'
essentially masculine. Ills range aa
yet has none of the terrible power
which made people wonder whether
I'agunlnrs genius were angel or devil,
which seemed to prove tile Hull's kin
ship with the greut elements of nature,
thunder and lightning anil rain, or
which made Joachim the musical itlnnt
of Ihe nineteenth century. Ills play
ing la marked rather liy u aubtlety, a
rare spirituality, ami by such piercing
sweetness, surely, ua caused the rucks
and trees of hitch Olympus to follow
Orpheus' lute. The expediency of Her
bert Dlttler'* entering upon years nf
study abroad must be decided on the
ground of temperament, rather than of
technical fltnees. Those who heard
him know that he has the tempera
ment ,nnd that a great career nwnltg
him. Atlanta should rally to his sup
port. for he will one day mine back, te
us with the wreath of laurel.
Ataisted by Kuhrt Mueller.
Mr. Dlttler wae ably assisted by
Kuhrt Mueller. Mr. Mueller rendered
some solos on the piano, each of which
wae enthuslaetlcally received. In the
rendition of Llest'e Hungarian Rnapho-
dy hla technical work wan especially

company than decided to offer at pub
lic outcry all of the proparty It owned
between the Equitable building and
Boulevard,
At 4 o'clock Tueeday there was a
large crowd of capitalists assembled,
and the sals was commenced, Forrest
Adair acting as auctioneer. The bid
