Craighead, one ot' the ablest educators in the South. The trustees met at Clemscu last night, when tho election ?as held, with thc result named. Governor Tillman. Secretary Tindal and Mr Wanamaker, o?' .the board, re? turned to the city this afternoon, and from the two luttera Journal reporter obtained the information IQ addition to the election of the president the other business was the as? signing of the different profosors. all of whom were present, to their depart? ments. Mr. Stonewall Tompkios, of Virginia, recently elected assistant professor of mechanical, civil and elec? trical engineering, has accepted, and was preseut last uight. He is a brig Lt | young man, having taken a complete j course iu the Miller Manual Traiuitig j School, after which he took a post grad- j uate course in the University of Vir ginia. SKETCH OF THE NEW PRESIDENT. Professor Craighead, the newly eject? ed president, is in every way entitled to the high esteem in which he is held as an educator. He Was born on a farm in Missouri, aud spent the early years of hw life there; but his ambition led him to seek a wider field of influence. After com? pleting his academic education, he at? tended Emory College, in hi? native State for three years, after which be took a course in Vanderbilt University, at Nashville. Completing his course there, he went abroad, where he spent six mouths at Leipsic, six at a universi? ty in Italy, and eighteeu at the Universi? ty of Fi ance, thus obtaining the best pos? sible education. After completing his education he re? turned to Vanderbilt, where he taught for a short while, when he was elected j to the chair uf Greek and German at j Welford, which position he bas held ever since, winning for himself the highest esteem of the faculty and friends i of that school, as weil as throughout the State. He will hardly have any time to de- ? vote to teaching ia his new position, ; but it is possible that be may undertake to teach Greek. He is still young, being only about 34 years of age arid has a life of great j promise before him. He will be looked CO for the early success of South Caroli- ! ud\s school for farmers, and from him ! his friends and admirers expect mucb. The college will open July 6th and i all thc professors will be on hand.- j Columbia Journal, 22J. District Attorney Murphy. President Cleveland yesterday i made choice of a district attorney j for South Catolina, and \Y. Perry; Murphy, of Colleton,\the conservative ! Democratic nominee last year for j attorney genera! is the man he has j selected tiona a dozen able lawyers The appointment is a strong and j admirable one, and will give great j satisfaction to the best Democrats of j the state. We sa}7 this with full know ledge of the fact that Columbia has j had candidates ol unsurpassed ability and that we have friends among the i other applicants who deserved weil of their party and were eminently; qualified for the duties of this office, j Indeed, the list of candidates was; such that it would have been difficult to err in choosing from them in regard : to ability, and only one chanco of making a political mistake. But all conservatives, even those who were candidates, will agree that Mr. Murphy stood in the first rank in character, in ikness in staunch demo cracy.and in patriotic service ; and the fact that he who was last year named by us for attorney general has j been appointed by President Cleve-j land to as high a position is a ti ib- j ute to our good judgment and dis-j comment which is especially grati- ? lying. W Perry Murphy is a self made tuan. Boru on a farm in Orangeburg, he was forced by the losses resulting! from the war to educate himself, j By hard, patient work he accom-j plised this, and earned the moans to j study law. Begin hing the practice of his profession far from the. opportuni? ties of a county seat, his brain and ; vigor and character enabled him to advance rapidly. It was not long! after his removal to the capital of Colleton that he was chosen solicitor j for his circuit and he held that post- j ti.m for several terms, until he voluntarily resigned it last vear. lie i? had the reputation of being the most j successful prosecuting officer in tho i state, and he ranks among the best ! practitioners of South Carolina. The people outside of his own circuit knew but little of him until his nomi- ! nation by the conservatives but his work in the campaign earned him ! distinction all over the state. Ile is j a clear thinker and expresses himself: with great force and logic. His dis? position is genial and ho makes friends wherever he goes. Politically, Mr. Morph}' is tis true as steel, tie has never wavered in his opposition to Tillman and he went into last year's light with the single purpose of contributing tn the redemption of the state. V\ e don S know how he voted in I SOO, but he is classed as a ..Straight-out'' Demo? crat by his friends. Geographically considered tin;! appointment is just Colleton cornily h;ts never had ;i state i r consid? rabio federal office since the wai*, although it has teen staunchly Demociatic sine?' 1ST."? in tito lie-- ol' a big black j majority. lt seems to us that it was Highest of ail in Leavening Pow A?S?WI Colleton's turn to be "recognized " The morai and political effect o? Mr. Murphy's appointment will be excellent, and if the President shall do as well in bis choices of collector and marshal, the Democrats of the I state will have reason to be be well j satisfied. We confidently predict fer District Attorney Murphy a very j successful terni.-Columbia State. A Little Weak in The Knees. The railroad commission, after a great deal of consid?ration, to-day an? nounced that it had decided to amend the original circular on the whiskey rate so as to agree with tho explana? tion made at the meeting of the commis? sion yesterday. They made the further remarkable statement that all roads that will claim the thirty day notice will be entitled to it, and that otherwise the new rate will be operative on and after the 26th. A new circular may be issued to-morrow. It is expect? ed tba-t the South Carolina and Rich? mond and Danville roads will claim the thirty-day limit, it is not yet known what the other reads of the otate will do, but it is altogether probable that many of them will take advantage of thin time of grace. ?t is rather peculiar that the commis? sion should make another slip up. It could not have happened at a worse time so far as the dispensary is con? cerned, as the bulk of the freight has to be went out on the original order to stock the county dispensaries.-News and Courier, 23d. Tlie Davis Monument RICHMOND, YA. J une 21 -At a meet? ing of the Jefferson Davis' Monument Association, held this evening, the spe- j cial committee appointed to prepare a j plan for the collection cf funds present ed a report which was adopte.d. The president of the association was author- | ized to communicate with the grand commander of the Confederate Veterans j asking his co-operation. Thanks wsre j tenedred Dr. W. W. Parker, of this city, for the suggestion of the collection of funds by the children of Sunday schools throughout the South, and au? thority was given him for the Promul? gation of a plan to that end. -ITTTT" "gl^ iT^T-"^ The iatest fad is a freight car junket to the World's Fair at Chicago from the towt; of Union. A number of young men of this place have determined to charter a freight box car or caboose and go by freight to the Fair of the world. They say they will have lots of fun and that it will cot cost them more than <J15 each for the round trip. The novelty of the thing must be the attraction, lt is safe to predict that those who take such a ride as that upou a freight train i will never want to see a freight train j . gain. We do not know how they in- j tend to way bill themselves, but we j would suggest that it bc as "live stock" j or "perirbable freight," as both of these go right through; otherwise tbere oight ; oe . be more side-tracking than would be | agreeable -UL toa Correspondent, News aud Courier. The Spartanburg Herald is informed by a whiskey drummer that his house has received "two carloads of half pint flasks made in the same molud as the official flasks," and that he bas taken the order of one citizen for 1,500 of these pseu Jo-officia! flasks filled with whiskey, it is surmised that this person proposes to "dispense" ou his own accouut.

Saturday week the dispensary law ' is scheduled to go into effect. There are but eleven davs more for the liquor men, if Judge Bond does uot intervene to save them with that injunction. Everybody is getting ready for the grand finale, except the liquor meu themselves and flit:? arc taking things very quietly indeed. The law becomes operative on a Sat? urday, the hardest, day in the week to cut off the habituaf drinker from his liquor. It will hit the country drinker hard. Then again the glorious Fourth comes along three days later, to bo celebrated, and the average South Car? olina countryman and laborer thinks whiskey is absolutely necessary to the proper celebration of the day. Most of the ?ounty boards meet tc appoint the dispensers this week and up to date but few bonds of dispensers have been filed with the State board. The beard however expects them all to come in during the ensuiug tea days. The State authorit ies give the follow? ing list of the dispensaries they expect to have in full operation on the day the law goes into effect: Orangeburg ('i), Barnwell (4). Edgefield, Newberry, So-mter, Darlington, Lexington, Lan? caster, Berkely, Aiken, Abbeville, Greenville, Florence, Georgetown. Kershaw, Columbia, (probably three.) They also expect one in Fairfield. They say Winnsboro having decided not to have it, Ridgeway is fighting for it, and Winnsboro will*do a great deal before she will let her rival town have it. One of the leading members of the board says he expects to see at least oue dispensary in Charleston before four weeks pass by. The first order for liquor was receiv ed by the State Commissioner on Sat? urday ; it came from the county dispen? ser at Newberry. Governor Tillman bas ordered a sup ply of domestic wines from people io this State. He says he has as yet ordered DO champagne, French cordials and fine wines He expects to keep such goods if there ?3 shown to be a demand for theo. Govjrnor Tillman when asked about the appointment of the force of consta? bles, said no one would ever kn^w any? thing about that. He says they will be appointed in due time, but over half of them will never be known to any but the State Commissioner and him self. They will be engaged ia all sorts of occupations, and will not be required to make arrests or raise a row tba*, would give them away. They will simply be required to nose around and inform on those who are selling iiquor illegally. Although it has been up fer several days, the sign of the State dispensary was Dot DOticed till yesterday. It is put up ou the front wall betwee? the windows of the Railroad Commission? er's office. It is only about three feet square. The grouud is of white and the lettering black. It is a very lone? some looking siga. The revenue col? lector, under the United States laws, required it p!;,t out before a drop of 'liquor could bi bottled. It looks like" this : STATE COMMISSIONER, Rectifier and "Wholesale Liquor DEALER. The liquor dealers who have stocks oa hand are in rather a bad fix, unless they sell it before the law becomes operative. The law says that if a mau has a revenue license to sci! whiskey io his possession it will be taken as prima facie evideuce of the violation of the dispensary law and the holder thereof is liable to prosecution. If he does not have this license the United States revenue authorities will ? swoip down upon him for violation of! the United States laws, if be attempts to sell. Governor Tillman says they realize that the revenue licenses now ? held by our liquor dealers are issued for thc year and cannot be gotten rid of. if he-wever a man keeps his place open with the st-ock therei-o, and thc revenue license displayed, it will be taken as prima facie evidence that thc party is bteaking the law and prosecution will be entered. G-ovcrnor Tiilman proposes to make it lively for those who iutcud to keep their places open and run restaurants without removing their stocks from the shelves and their licenses, as indicated above. Fie say-? that io those cases where a man attempts lo have a sideboard and permits customers to have lock boxes in which they keep their own whiskey, he wiil quickly enter prosecution under sections lit, and, li'j, which, cover the case, as they declare any place where persons can congregate to drink, a pub? lic nuisance, gives tho State the right to confiscate thc property, and close up thc house.--The State, 10* h.

A meeting of the railroad corn rn is I siou was held at IL o'clock this morning ! for the purpose of hearing any objec ! tions the railroad authorities might ! have to the new whiskey rate recently ; promulgated by the commission. ? The Richmond & Danville and the I South Carolina roads were the only two j that had filed protests. Those present were Sol Haas and D. Cardwell, of the Richmond & Dac I ville ; E. P. Wariug, of the South Carolina; C. M. Smith, J R. Kenley and II M. Emerson, of the Atlantic I Coast Line; W G. Childs, of the Columbia, Newberry & Laurens*} and H. \V. B. Glover, of the Georgia, Carr lina & Northern. Mr Haas opened the proceedings by ! asking whether the commission had j done anything about raising certain ! rates asked for some time ago. j Chairman Duncan replied that the i commission was ce-uaide-nug the matter: I that there were certain articles that ! might be raised but that the board would i do nothing until bosiness revived I Coming to the question at issue, Cbair I mao Duncan said it wt.s not the intcn I ti on or purpose of the commission to reduce the revenue of railroads by ! changing the classifi afton of whiskey, ! but simply to put the Dispensary on a j fair footing ta comparison with the rates that had bee a charged on whiskey ! shipped into the State. Whi.-key had been shipped in wood ' but the law now compelled it to be j shipped ia bottles. The commissioo thought it nothing birt right that the rate should be the same as when ship? ped in wood.- E;ch bottle weighed a pound and a quarter, and wheu packed ia barrels there were sis'een gallons of whiskey, the whole weighing 2(50 pounds, giving 129 pounds of d~ad Weight. The commissiaa thought that the revcaue would he increased rather than diminished. The railroads hauled the whiskey to Columbia and it again had 'o haul it to local points and ia this wav got two chances*-at lt. Mr. Duac-n took occasion to pay h;s respects to the News and Courier. He said that that par^r had placed its own j ! construction on the circular, which was ! wrong and wiiich was not the intention of the board. He said that it had stated ! what was false, and its object seemed to j be to bring antagonism between the I commission aud the railroads. Mr^ ! Duncan spoke very emphatically and ! seemed to be very much ia- earnest ia i his remarks. There was some running discussion j between the chairman and the railroad I ir.eu when Mr. Daucan asked Mr. [Raa* d:d ho not believe his earnings ? would be increased 25 per cent? Mr. ! ii ass dccliued to answer the question. ! contenting himself with the remark i that "if wc discussed that ?e would be ; here until night.*' Mr. H.us'seemed to not thoroughly I understand the circular and asked ! whether certain changes ia wording ; codd not bc made. Chakmau Duncan said he was will ing to do so, so ?is to expiaiu exaet'y what the commission meant. "In tba', oise" Mr. Bass said, "we ' will demand the thirty days notice,as re? t? uired by ?aw.** In further discussion uncut the reve? nues Mr. Baas said that his road did not intend to pay any attention to the ruting of tho commission, iasinoating very st roo*'iy thereby-that his road at least would fight t::e rates to the bit? ter end. ?sj,, ]> Waring then read an additional protest ot the South Carolina j road, repeating what had been said j h. fore about ?v.?uei'ng the revenue ; that j the people did? not demand the reduc? tion in whiskey rates ar.d that it would j .r?.::? i*reat hardship to his read. The body theo adjourned and took a look over the dispensary. ^ | Toe commission met rg;ain at ll ' o'clock to consider the complaint. It j is not pr,.-i ii,le that their action w.,'! be j c-ranged, though they may change ihc j ot the circular somewhat. ? wururu Messrs iy spe ? ; .:,);>. as their ro id is n it r.riA ;cJj -Columbia J.u.ual June, . rf r/toreace county, was killed on Sunda) by lightning.
