The annual commencement of Allen university was conducted last night with the annual election of the teach ers. The commencement exercises hr.ve been In progress for several days. The graduating exercises of the college were held yesterday in Coppin hall. Great crowds of negroes from different sections of the State at tended. The most prominent speaker at the commencement was John Mitchel, Jr., editor of the Richmond Plannet president of the Mechanics and Sav ings bank of Richmond. Mitchel de livered the address to the alumni as sociation. He is a speaker of repu tation and the only negro member of the National Bankers' association. For two years the administration , of the college has been In the hands of the Rev. W. W. Beckett, a native of Charleston. President Beckett's administration has been very fruitful and the general opinion in th* State of the college is good. Dr, Beckett was a candidate for bishop In the A. M. E. church at the last I general conference, which met In Kan sas City. He held the office of sec retary of missions and has traveled , extensively throughout the United States In the interest of his people, . He waB unanimously reelected presi dent of the college. The trustee board at its first session received from th? reports of the presiding elders and . other members of the board $10,300, which was raised in a special spring rally for the college. , Allen university has no endowment fund. It has a unique scheme ( of raising funds to maintain the col lege through the membership of the ! A. M. E. church in this State. From the report of the secretary of int ' board of trustees over $25,000 were the annual receipts for the scholastic I year. i The trustees have purchased 54 acres of land near the city for the . establishment of an annex to the college plant in which many phases of Industrial education and agricul ture in its broadest sense may be given 'the students. It is rumored that the board may sell the present . property of the college in Waverlej and move the entire plant of the ' school to the new site. Whether this will be finally agreed upon by the leaders is yet speculative. II The degree of doctor of dlvlnlt> ' was conferred upon the Rev. G. K Spearman of Camden, N.

There is good space for four persons, and plans made for ten. Eighteen persons work in the laboratory at one time, each having his own Bunsen burner on his desk and the water with in his reach just over the lead trough that carries the waste | liquids. All dilute and common liquid are on the individual shelf, while those of a more important ? nature are upon a common shelf I in an alphabetical order thus saving the student much time in performing his experiments. When he strikes an experiment that calls for apparatus not iii his locker, he fills out a borrowed list and gets the same from the instructor for the said experi ment, returning it in good condi tion when through with it. .So, the plan is for the student to do experimente that are given and the material is always on hand if it can be had. The biological laboratory is in good working condition and work is now going on in it. There are ten compound micro scopes and six dissecting micro scopes for the use of the college student. There are slides pro vided for the students when fresh material cannot be had. Regular laboratory tables are now being placed, and plans made for charts and maps for all classes in botany and zoology. The Physical laboratory is nearing completion. Already the gas burners for individual work have been placed and the tables are being constructed. The laboratory is equipped with apparatus to perform any of the experiments called for by the text. The students have done great work in this department this year, especially with the pulleys heat, light, electricity.
