THE EVENING GALL. Vol. X. No. 246 TRUSTEES ARE DIVIDED. No Man Has Majority in His Favor for Chancellor of University. Athens, Ga , June 20—A poll of the junior and senior classes discloses the (act that a large majority of both of these classes are strongly in favor of the retention of Dr, Boggs a» chan cellor Investigation of the standing of the trustees discloses the fact that a little over onc-lhird are for Dr. Boggs for chancellor. A few less than that are for Dr. White, and the balance of the board believe that it is the part of wisdom to elect neither of these two, but to select an outsider for the posi tion—a man who would take the office free from any antagonisms. If it should come to an issue between Dr. Boggs and Dr. White, the proba bilities are that Dr. Boggs would be elected. It is safe to say that the ma jority of the board do nut favor the election of either of tho two gentle men. There is a strong sentiment in favor of retaining Dr Boggs as a pro lessor of the university, if he would accept it, in the chair of philosophy, which all concede he has filled with great ability. The criticism placed upon him as chancellor has been upon the line that he produces too much friction in bis contact with outsiders. Dr. White receives the warm sup port of all the trustees for the chair which he now fills. It seems to be clear that the major ity of the trustees favor a change in the chair of English. It is believed that Dr. Riley will ask to be relieved from hie duties as professor of English, and he will be given the position of of the university, traveling through the state, presenting the ad* vantages of the university wherever he goes. The majority of the board have informally expressed themselves favorable to such a plan. The outlook at this time seems to i be a new man for chancellor, a new i man for professor of English, and Dr. i B >ggs in the chair of philosophy, Dr i White in the chair which he now fi’ls and Dr. Riley a representative of the university, traveling through Georgia in its interests. It is understood at Athens that if i Hon. William L Wilson, who is now the able president of the Washington and Lae University in Virginia, will < accept the chancellorship, the trustees J: are almost unanimously in favor of I his election. Greatest Heat Known. I‘rc.f. Tucker of Columbia Universi ty has succeeded in producing the greatest heat yet known to man. A specially constructed electrical furnace and current of unusual power were used to create this temperature, which was so high that under it steel, hard quar'z and even platinum, were vapor iz >d. As for ordinary crucibles, they dis appeared at once in a little put! of smoke. The heat obtained, says the Boston Transcript, was 6 .”>OO degrees Fahren heit, 500 degrees hotter than any tem perature before produced. It is difficult to appreciate the de gree of such heat without some com parisons. Scalding water means a temperature of 212 degrees Fahren heit, and red hot iron 800 degrees Steel melts at 3,000 degrees, and boils, like water at 3,500 degrees. As for the heat of the sun, it is estimated at 10,000 degrees, so that Prof. Tucker obtained a temperature which came within only 3,700 degrees of old Sol himself Scientifically, the experiment was of importance, because it has demon strated that the degree of heat obtain ed some time sgo by Prof. Molsson of Paris was not the greatest possible. Commercially, it is useful, because it has shown 'hat diamonds of market able size and purity may be made artificially. Further, it has given to commerce two products of almost incalculable value—calcium carbide and silicium carbide, Working Night and Day The busiest and mightiest little thing that ever was made is Dr. King's New Life Pills.

Otis indicate that considerable more fighting is to be expected in the Philippines before the insurgents will accept American terms of peace. Aguiualdo is ruling his followers with an iron hand. The rebels have shown a tenacity of purpose that has been surprising, and have persisted in fighting, notwithstanding severe losses and disastrous repulses. It is believed by war department officials that the insurgents had mapp ed out a plan for simultaneous attack on Manila and on tho forces uut’er Gen. McArthur, near San Fernando. The advance of Gen. Lawton’s forces upon them south of Manila was evi dently unexpected, and he not only defeated the insurgents with great loss, but broke up the projected at tack. The fight reported at San Fer nando yesterday is believed to have been a part of the plan of Aguinaldo to break through the American lines between San Fernando and Calumpit and advance upon Manila to aid in the attack on the city, which had been prearranged. Now that the insurgents have been defeated at both ends of the line, it is probable that Aguinaldo will again withdraw toward Tarlac and arrange some other movement. Meanwhile the Arneiican forces under Gens Law ton and McArthur are not expected to remain idle It is thought by offi cers of the army that Gen, Otis will continue to advance on the enemy and not allow them to recover fully from their defeats of the last few days. There is no fear that Gen. McArthur will not be fully able to defend his po sition against the insurgents, as he has a whole division under his command, and will not only be able to repulse attacks, but will send a brigade to pur sue the Filipinos as far north as possi ble. Tho war department has ordered another company of regular soldiers to be equipped for service in the Philip pines. It is proposed to increase the engineer corps at Manila, and orders were sent to Company B, Battalion of Engineers, at Willets Point, to imme diately prepare for transportation to Sin Francis.o preparatory to sailing for Manila.

I- Adversity Is Our Best Teacher. “Culture and character coma througl Q suffering,” writes R tv. Newell Dwight Hillis,!) D, in the 'Pains.) ihal Polish Perfection,” in the June Ladies Home Journal. ‘ Life is God’s univer »i(y ; happiness is the graduating pbint but trouble and adversity are amor £ the chosen teachers. The world it built for joy, but man conies io hit full estate through the tutelage o! sorrow. If man washes his eyes in tears and makes his garments white a with blood, lie, too, is promised the throne and sceptre of the higher man hood. Suffering is an alchemist refin ing coarseness and transmuting bad t into good, selfishness into sympathy. Steel is iron plus fire. Tools are steel plus gashing axes. Statutes are mar r b!e plus the chisel, whose every stroke makes sparks fly. Manhood is nature ’ plus the temptations that chisel out character. Bronz) doors of old catbe ; drals are all of beaten handiwork, and ( character's hammered out on the anvil of adversity ; wine comes through crushing of grapes, and joy is a fine spirit oft distilled from bruised affec tions. Sin and selfishness dig great furrows in the face, so suffering is sent I . in to iron the lines out smooth again. From Paul to Livingstone, what heroic leader hath worn soft raiment ? What Luther or Lincoln was reared in Kings’ palaces? It is wrestling against opposing winds that works toughness into trees and giantbood into men. If the poet’s vision is ever fulfilled and we judge the angels doing easy duty at home, we must first, as veterns of the old guard, achieve our scars and bojd our tattered flags in fierce battles upon a far-off frontier. Optimists always, let us not ‘make believe’ and play there are no troubles. One form of folly is always to drag the corpse into the banquet : another is to try and triumph over tragedies by avert ing our eyes.” Millions Given Away. It is certainly gratifying to the public to know of one concern in the land who are not afraid to be generous to the needy and suffering. The proprietors of Dr. King’s , New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, have given away over ten mill ion trial bottles of this great medicine; and have the satisfaction of knowing it has ab solutely cured thousands of hopeless cases. Asthma, Bronchitis, Hoarseness and all diseases of the Throat, Chest and Lungs are surely cured by it. Call on J. N. Har ris & Son, or Carlisle & Ward, druggists, and get a free trial bottle.

Admiral Dewey used to be called the “dandy commodore,” because he was so careful with his clothes, says j the Chicago Tribune Though bis I wife died twenty years ago, it is a mat j t*r of tradition that Dewey was never seen without a spotless uniform, and ! never wore a pair of socks which were darned or needed it. It is therefore surprising to find from the records of the navy department th.it the great admiral, the “dandy commodore,” ’ once fought a little battle of his own > clad in no more striking uniform than i an immaculate nightshirt. After the civil war Dewey was cruising in the Mediterranean on a ship supposed to be the old Canadaigua. The war fever had died out, and the men frequently deserted. On mec-j’- var boats can not be lowered without an order, ex cept in case of a man overboard Several malcontents in the crew one J night therefore raised the “man over i board” cry, lowered a boat, and ecu’- > tied oft into the darkness Dewey was ? executive officer of the chip, ami was 1 called from his berth. though even j then particular a- to his dress, he t didn’t care about uniforms when there was quick work to be done. He rushed up to the quarter deck ! in half a gale of wind, and promptly i took command in spite of bis curious > appearance He knew his men thor ’ ougbly, and acted promptly in spite 1 of the darkness. “Come back heie, Jim Brown, lorn Robinson, and the rest of you, ' he j J shouted, and punctuated his remarks t with three shots from his revolver, t The shots, the ghostly figure on the quarterdock and the sudden use of s their names startled the men into 9 back to the ship, while Dewey and his ' novel uniform retired once more be low.

When the money was t paid over to him at the bank the . cashier, who had known him for a long ; time, remarked casually : “Well, Bill, I what are you going to do to make i yourself comfortable and enjoy I'fe, t now you’ve got plenty of money?” s Bill thought a minute in silence, and . then, as a pleased < xpres.-mn bright -1 ened up bis rugged face, he answered ' “I reckon I won’t eat nothin’ but [ canned stuff hereafter ” I That was his idea of luxury. He i had lived so long on salt pork and i heavy bicuits of his own manufacture I that canned corn beef and tomatoes and salmon represented to him the i highest luxuries that life could afford. ■ ••• -* — ■■ i . v ' , z - I w 1 Au Excellent Combination. ■ ’ The pleasant method and beneficial ' effects of the well known remedy, ‘ • Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., illustrate the value of obtaining the liquid laxa tive principles of plants known to be medicinally laxative and presenting i them in the form most, refreshing to the, taste and acceptable to the system.
