A meeting of the board of trustees of tho Slate University will be hold in a few days to electa successor to President David S. Jordon, who has resigned to accept tho presidency Senator Stanford's California L'niversify. Among educators tbe opinion is quite general that Mr. John M. Coulter, now professor of biology iu Wabasii College, Crawfordsville, will be chosen. If this expectation is realized tbe State University can bti congratulated on securing a man iu every way worthy to [ill Presideut Jordon's place. It should be a source of pride to Iudianians that their state lias secured two men so efficient in educational work.—Indianapolis Journal.

Bennett, or Lafayette, indicted tor killing two men in that city last October stands a fair opportunity of being tho principal iu a hanging bee, and 'ere long, unless his attorneys qui monkeyiHg and have no moreddiays toward having a trial at court, than is necessary. A mob did get after him some mouths ago Inn the sheriff spirited him away and saved his neck. His attorneys, it seems, are seeking for the usual delays, which are alwajs deemed advantageous to a client situated as Bennett is, and dissatisfaction at such proceedings are heard occasionally iu that city. The miitleiing storm may break at most any tune, as the j? people appear to be in 110 condition to be! trifled with in the matter, and the fewest de lays the better, it would seem, both for the, state am! the defendant. Iu the meantime' the shoritl needs to tie thorough master of the situation.
