UNPROVOKED SHOOTING.
Mass Meeting at the A. and
Al. College Last Night.
The Meeting Largely Attended
High Regard Expressed lor Prof.
Hoiladay and Committee Named
to Draft Resolutions.
The announcement in The Post of
-last Sunday that the election of Dr.
(Joorge T. Winston as president of the
Agricultural and Mechanical College
was' being strongly urged by promi
nent members of the board, of trustees
of thedns'tiiMiltion, was re-ad .wd'th mueli
interest all over the State.
At a largely attended meeting of the
students of the A. and M. College last
evening Dr. Winston was unanimously
'declared the choice of the student
body for the presidency of the institu
tion, and a eomniiirtee was named. to
draw up resolutions memorializing the
trustees to elect him to the presidency.
A member of the board stated yes
terclay that from information he had
received the trustees would undoubt-
edlv tender Dr. Winston the presiden
cy. He stated also that he believed
Dr. Winston would accept.
At the- mass-meetting last night the
'students of the college expressed their
high regard for Professor Hoiladay,
and their regret that he. is to retire.
A committee was named to frame suit
able resolutions expressing the senti
ment of the meeting. The mass-meet
ing was presided over by Mr
C.s B. Wlilliams, of Elizabeth City
Mr. Ed. Wood, of Edenton, acted as
secretary. It was started that every
boarding student was present
The committee appointed to make a
s, lioiiipiit of the action of the stu
dents furnished The Post with the fol
low-in? last evening:
"Ait a m'ass nieeitingcf tlhe students
of the A. & M. College held last even
ing much interest was manifested in
the election of a president for the col
lege, which is soon to take place, siuce
Colonel Hoiladay has decided to re-
' ''All of ithe student "have helid la mosft
hijrli regard for President Hoiladay,
and all are keenly regretful of the fact,
that he is soon to leave the inatitu
tiou, Which he has been connected
with for the last ten years, and; Which
under his direction has come from
nothinir. as it were, to a . high place
.humnrr rmr State institutions. In the
dark da vs of its you'tih he has ably
nniioM thp nnlloiffp. and since in his
declining years he has seen fit to re
'sisrn, the students of the A. & M. Col
lege thought it well to offer him -some
slight token of their apprecialtoou.
"A eonuniittee was appointed there
lore to tirait resunuwuis, caiiucootu,,
the' feelings ffliat the students of the
cnllecre have so long borne toward
him. In his connectiion ; with the col-
lose he has always been zealously
.ilive tn her interests, and has been
the chief promoter of the students
welfare.
"But sad as t is for the students of
the A. & M. College to part with
Colonel Hoiladay, still they were alive
to the future interests of the college,
and all honed tihM a successor would
be elecited to Oolonel Hoiladay who
would bear up the present reputation
of the college and do greater things
for her in the future, since -s'he is out
of the swaddling clothes of infancy
"But fortunately one Quas arisen, from
- the students' points of view, to hi
this high position and raise tihe A. &
M. College to a still higher plane than
she has hitherto been able to attain
Without any disrespect to any of the
prospective candidates, yet .there was
one, to the students' eye, who seemed
head and shoulders above all of the
others. This one is no other than Dr
Winston, now president of the Univer
sitv of Texasand wtho loves the land
of his bintfli well enoiigli to return to
it for a more meagre compensation
than that which he now. receives. Dr
Winston has long been connected
with the educational advancement of
the South. In fact, he more than any
otiher man has aided the camse of pop
ular education m tttms State, lie is
really the one. who gave it its first
great impulse. He raised the Univer
sity of North Carolina to the frout
rank of Sou'tiiero universities, and is
now doing the same for the Univer
sitv of Texas. A polished gentleman,
a great scolar, an accomplished ora-J
tor, he is regarded by the A. & M.
students as being pre-eminently above
any of our educa'tional leaders. 'They
think they do 'not err :n "holding up
his interests, for -tiheycan see his in
terests to be thedrs
"So a cammittee wlas .appolnfted to
draft a memorial to the Board of Di
rectors, asking . them to elect Dr
Winston to the presidency of the Col
lege, feeliing that under Ms guidance
tlhe college would not only sustain its
present reputation, but rise to even
greater tilings in time to come. If
past success is any criterion of future
welfare, the students realize that un
der his administration the North Caro
lina College of Agriculture and Me
chanic Arts would rise to her place
among tihe land grant colleges and be

mencement Week at Trinity.
Durham, May 27.-Special. The con
dition of Josh Borland, the negro who
-was shot near University Station yes
terday by Dave and Edgar Crabtree,
is some better today, and the attending
pnysicxans do not -think his wounds
will prove fatal. From tlie best in
formation obtainable at this time it
seems that the s'hooting was done with
very little if any provocation. It seems
that the negro had obtained permission
from the Southern Railway people to
plant some corn on some land of the
ram way rightf-way. The Crabtree
boys objected to Borland planting the
corn, and yesterday they began to
plough and. dig up Borland's corn and
plant some themselves. The negro
heard, of this, and went to the field to
warn them to quit destroying his crop
This made the Crabtree boys angry,
and they used a hoe and then their
,mn uii nonaim wum tne results as
told in this morning's Post. The Crab
tree men are under arrest and are be
ing held to await the results of Bor
land's injures.
The remains of little Charles, son of
Mr. and Mrs. C. E.' Eagau, were laid
to rest in tlie city cemetery this after

pallbearers were Messrs. Fred. G. Bat
