Thomas, who was superin dent of the Citadel Academy hilo Mr. H. S. Hartzog, the uoNyly Slected president of Clemson Col lege, was a cadet there, gives the following interesting-sketch of him: "Hartzog has done much as an ed ucator, with promise of much more. He is a member of the brilliant Cit aiel class of 1880, first to gradu4te after the reopening of the Academy. Of the 180 cadets who entered the Citadel in 1882, fifty-three survived to graduate. Of this number was Hartzog. That class, by the way, has a remarkable record, especially in the hae of educators. Harriso formely of Clemson, now of Da - son; Bond and Coleman at the it adel; Kinard at Winthrop; Spgn, of the Georgia School.,of Technology, Floyd and Jaw, -both instructors in -----+W i; Rhobertson teaching in Georgia, and McCants, president of the Stuart Normal College, of Vir ginia, are all members of this class of '80, and now comes to supplement the roll Hartzog, president of Clem son. The characteristics of each one of that class I recall perfectly. "Hartzog was a high toned cadet and an excellent scholar in the de partment of history, belles lettres and ethics. He delighted in E n glish literature, in the analysis of Shakespeare, in moral and mental philosophy, in essay writing and in oratory. He was a good soldier, but his passion was for letters. "I have confidence in him now as I had confidence in him then. Hart zog's principles are sound and ideals lofty. He will do all that his youth Vill allow, and I believe he will earn estly seek the wisdon of age. I ex pect him to hold high the standard of Clemson as a moulder of character; and as a wise and good manager I expect. him to excel, while at the same time he will intelligently look after the agricultural, mechanica 1 and scientific departments of the affairs of his principality he will put Clemson College on a prosperous career. But let me say in conclu sion that no president of a college or head of a military school can accom plish' results or do his duty to the State unless he enjoys the confidence and has the loyal support of the board of management of the institu tion. No :_ &I.tho _ate more sin oeoeIy de,afres Hartzog's success than lisa friend and former preceptor. He deservesjthe confidence of the State."' PaESIDENT 0OF cLEMsON. [News and Courier.] Calhoun, S.

Hazloton, Pa., September 17.-Th< strike situation to-night may be sun marized thus: Over ton thousan men are still out, with no apparon prospect of settlement; sporadIc out breaks of violence are occurring nea the outlying collories and the with drawal of troops is not only withoul consideration, but the guard lines of several of the camps are being con stantly strengthened, and the wis dom of bringing more cavalry is be ing discussed. It was said today that if the soldiers are kept her( much longer the Sheridan Troop, o Tyr9eo, attached to the 2d brigado wjil be ordered out. A captain o ,,,en. Gobin's staff is authority foi the statement that an uneasy feeling prevails at headquarters in conse quence of the little outbreaks of th past few days, and the indicatioi they hold of the underlying disturb aince. The brigade coniniander himsell admitted that the action of the raid ing women was giving him much perplexity. He does not care to use force against them, and has in structed the soldiers in case of no cessity to use only the flats of their sabres upon the Amazons. The story reached the Gonoral that many men were in the attacking crowds of yesterday and today, disguised as women. This morning's violent scene at Andenriod was almost an exact repetition of yesterday's at the same place. It arose from another attempt to start the Monarch and Star washories of the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Company. About one hundred men reported for work at the former, when the wild band of women swooped down upon then with .n armament of sticks and stones. Others were stationed od top of an adjacent culin bank, whence they showered missiles upon the would-be workers, and a large body of men and boys waited in reserve behind the bank. The men prompt ly quit work before any injury could be inflicted. At the Star waihery, where 100 or 135 men wanted to work, a like assault stopped tiemn. Late last night another territory was turbulent. A body of strikers at Lattimer, No 2, quarrolled among themselves and bloodshed was threatened, whPn Company E, -of the 13th regiment, which is camped at Lattimer, restored quiet. Deputy Coroner Bowman will be gin the inquest over the bodies of the dead miners on Wednesday af ternoon. * Over- 100 witnesses.will be examined. Gen. Globin will not interfere wvith to-minorr-ow night's big mass meeting unless highly colored speeches are made. The p)rincipal speakers ar-c to be P. J. Maguire, vice president of the American Federation of La bor, and George Chance, of the United Labor League. As a pro. cautionary measnure a guard of sol diers will be present. Organizer Fahey and other leaders have aisked that the militia be withdr-awn, and Gon. Gobin has advised them that the speediest wa'y to acompllish this wvill b)e to Atop holding mass meet ings and ther-oby exciting thme pee pIe. The only change in the strike sit ntion today was the return to wvork~ of the five hundred men em)ployed at Coxo's Beaver Meadowv colliery. The minors say that this is only tomn porary, and that if the other Cox men at Drifton and elsewhere decide at their meeting next Monday to go out the Beaver Meadow men wvill join thorm.

Robertson & Gilder, Druggists on thn Ono-i One1 of tihe Most WIely Bestowest iene. 0facitons in History. I.President D. C. Gilnan, Johns Hopkins University, in Atlantic.] When (eorge Peabody 30 years ago put in trust $2,000,000 to be spent in furthering education in the United States, he mado undoubtedly the wisest provision fo- the public good that any similar benefactor ovor mado. President Gilman, chairman of the board, sots forth the history and results of this groat fund in the Atlantic. In the first place he used uncommon wisdom in solect ing the board of trustees. Although the war bad but rucently ended and mon woro violently divided in their opinions, lie was broad enough to so lect alike men from the north and men from the south. lie was wiso enough not to. restrict their action, but to allow them to apply the money to education as they pleased, oxpressing simply his conviction that it would serve the best purpose by stimulating educational work that was already begun instead of found ing new institutions. Thi-oo presidents of the United States, two chief justictis of the a prome court and a number of other most eminent men have felt it an honor to servo on this board. It has been proved, therefore, that the highest possible service can be so cured for a public end without pe cuniary consideration if the ai) be largo and high. The income from this $2,000,000 was to be devoted as the trustees saw lit for 30 years, and at the end of 30 years they were themselves to decide whether they should continue longer to distribute this income or whether the principal also should be applied to edtucation and the trust wound up. The trustees have ro contly unanimously concluded to continue the payment of the in come. During these 30 years $2,400, 000 has been spent in furthering od ucation, chielly in the Southern States, and it is a modest estimate of the results to say that a complete revolution has boon brought about. Less than 30 years ago 25 per cent. of the whites in 12 Southern States were illiterate, and now only 16 por cent. Thirty years ago 87 per cent. of the blacks were illiterate, and now only 62 per cent. in Virginia in 1870 there were only 51,000 pupils in the public schools; now there aire 436,000. These are specimens of the results that have been brought about more by reason of this great donation than from any other single cause. A resnlt of ainothier sort hats fol lowed Mr. Peabody's wvise action, for Mr. John F. Slater's donation of $1, 000,000 was directly suggestod b)y it. These two great benefactions ror public education are believed to be without precedent or parallel in the history of thme use of great fortunes foir the p)ublic good. They have be come historic ars evidences of the breadth of American philanthropy. Once a year, wvheni thc b)oard of trustees of the Peabody fund meets, following the auggestions of thoe founder, they (line togol her. At the conclusion of the dinner, in a most propecr and solemn ianner, thme chia irmnan praoposes as a sentiment thue inomtory of the foundar, which the company drinks ina silence.

Bryan, in a lotter published in the Mail and Express to day, ro fers as follows to a recent editorial in that paper regarding Bryan's work in the Kansas railroad dis astor: I beg to thank you for your gen crous words, but ani afraid your praise out-runs the merit of my work orn that occasion. I did no more than tho others who escaped uninjured, and none of us (lid more than could have been expected from any person ider like circumstances. Some of the wounded ones suffered intensoly, and no one could have ro. fused any assistance which could possibly be rendered. It is often the lot of public men to be criticised when they do do not deservo it, and I suppose the. uniorited cominenda. tion which they sometimes receivo is necossary to form a just averago. However, I approciato the charity Which you, as a political opponent, have shown. Very truly yours, WM. J. BmYAN. Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 13, 1817.

Greenville, September 17.--Fnr man University trustees made public to.dny the fact that Dr. and Mr1. F. A. Miles have made that institu tion a gift of Caesar's Head, the fa inous summer resort.
