E. Keeler as director of the Lick Observatory is a task devolving upon the president of the Unive fornia, Benjamin Ide Wheeler, L. Barnes, Hon. Charles W. Dr. George C. Pardee, the committee of regents having charge of the affairs of | the Lick Observatory. The task of selecting a man in every | way competent for the position is regard- ed a most responsible and difficult one, for the number of scientists qualified to | continue the great work of the late direc- tor is extremely limited. During Profes- sor Keeler's administration the utmost | harmony prevailed among ail who were {In any way connected with the obeerva- tory and the work-accomplished was ac- knowledged to be of the first order. The | full powers of the great instrument were would have In fime greatly extended the present lixait of astronomical sclence and placed the Lick at the head of all ob- servatories in the world. So far but. four saentists have been more than casually considered by the committee of regents. ‘Lhey are Profes- sor L. K. Schacverle, Professor rjeorge Davidson, Professor Willlam W. Camy- bell and Professor Barnard, all of whom are well known as in every way compe- tent for the position. Professor Schaeberle, who retired from the Lick on the election of Professor Keeler, Ai; regarded as the most probable choiee 1 not actively cngaged with auny of the great cbservatories of the countries, but it is’ believed that his services could be secured If he were elected. Professor Scnaeberie ranks as one of the greatest astronomers of the world, and orig- inal discoveries relating to sclar phenom- ena are regarded by scientists as opening a new epoch in this particular domain, His attalnments as a mathematician are said to be of the highest, and he is also endowed with the necessary tact to ad- minister the affairs of the institution without friction, Were Professor Davidson a younger man_ there would be no second choice. He has been approached, but it is understood has declined to consider any proposition that removes him from his present con- genial position in the university. Profes- sor William W. Campbell, who Is now in charge of the observatory, is very favor. of promotion Professo sesses all the attainments of a great as- tronomer.

The men engaged in the Seventh Atillery, being treated in hospital for a gunshot wound in the foot, and Private Horace D, Borden, who was operated on a short while ago for ap- pendicitis.- When separated it was seen that McArthur was covered with blood, and on examination eight knife wounds were found, one on the back and should- er and the others in the neck. It seems that the men were having an argument, in which Borden was worsted, and losing his temper he attempted to strike McArthur, but only succeeded in knocking off nis hat. McArthur protest- | ed against such treatment, and in reply Borden called him a number of ugly names. This was more than the corporal could endure, and dropping his crutches he grappled with Borden. Borden drew a penknife from his pocket and jabbed it repeatedly into McArthur. Despite the fact that he had the use of but one leg, McArthur succeeded in throwing his man and held him until the arrival of the at- | tendants. McArthur was taken to a nearby ward to have his wounds dressed and Borden was incarcerated In the guardhouse. None of the wounds were serfous, but { McArthur will remember his encounter for several days, as they are very pain- ful, An investigation of the matier will | be held and Borden will be tried by court- martial. Theoffense is a serious one and he will probably receive a severe sentence. Two acting assistant surgeons, two hos- | pital stewards and two acting stewards, in charge of a detachment of seventy hospital corps privates from the school of instruction at Fort McDowell, will saf] | on the Grant on the 16th inst.' for Ma- | nfla. Three female nurses will also sail on the vessel.
