American Newspapers in 1834.
From the edition of Messrs. Geo. P.
Rowell & Co's AMERICAN NEWSPA
PER DIRECTORY, now in press, it ap
pears that the newspapers and periodi
cals of all kinds at present issued in the
United States and Canada reach a
grand total of 13,402. This is a net
gain of precisely l,f>Co during the last
twelve months,and exhibits an increase
of 5,018 ovfr the total number publish
ed just ten years since. The increase
in 1874 over the total for 1873 was 493.
During the past year the dailies have
increased from 1,138 to 1,254 ; the
weeklies from 9,052 to 10,028 ; and the
monthlies from 1,081 to 1,490. The
greatest increase is in the Western
States. Illinois, for instance, now
shows 1,009 papers in place ot last
year's total of 904, while Missouri is
sues 681 instead of the 522 reported in
I£BL Other leading Western States
also exhibit a great percentage of in
crease. The total number of papers in
New York State is 1,523, against 1,399
in 1883. Canada has shared in the
general increase.
STATE COLLEGE .—The Hoard of
Trustees and President Atherton. —The
Board of Trustees of the State College
held a. meet lag at the llrockerlioff
House in Bellefonte on the evening of
the 25th ot March IBS 4, at which Gov.
Pattison and State Superintendent
lligbeo made the "majority report" of
a sub-committee, as reported bolow.
The correspondent of the llarrisburg
Patriot scut an account of the meeting
to tli.it paper, prefacing the majority
report with certain remarks which we
herewith append as necessary to the
proper understanding of the letter of
President Atherton, which follows the
report:
The object of the meeting was to
hear from ilie committee appointed ny
the board about two months ago to
make a report relative to a more satis
factory working of the institution. For
sometime past, although the number
of students has gradually increased,tho
etlicioncv of tho faculty bten enlarged,
and a more thorough curriculum estab
lished, the 111 uncial condition of the
institution lias been in a somewhat
crippled affile. While the amount set
apart by the United States and state
governments for the purpose of this
college has been SOOO,OOO, yielding the
institution SOO,OOO annually, at live per
cent,the amount of indebtedness for cur
rent expenses has been gradually grow
ing until it now exceeds $50,000.
Furthermore, owing to some defect
in the law, salaries have not been paid
to the memtiers of the faculty with
promptness, necessitating frequently
the discounting of their vouchers at
bank that their living expenses might
be provided for. When these subjects
were brought before the board at its
special meeting the appointment of a
committee was deemed advisable, and
Governor Pattison, Dr. Iligbee and the
president of the college, Dr. George W.
Atherton, selected. Since'then the
committee have been in session once or
twice. At the first session it became
apparent that the entile committee
could not work in harmony,as the pres
ident of the college insisted upon re
taining the largo faculty of sixteen in
structors, which the other members of
the committee thought, owing to the
monetary condition of the institution,
should be reduced, and two reports
were accordingly drawn. That of the
majority (Governor Pattison and Dr.
Iligbee) was submitted at the special
meeting of the board last evening, and
after a warm discussion adopted as
follows: THE KEPORT:
111 making tbe following report the
undersigned have 110 disposition to re
flect upon the past management of the
.State College or 'lO criticise the ability
and fidelity of its present body of
teachers. We have only taken into
consideration its present financial con
dition and its relation to the large agri
cultural interests of the commonwealth.
The college has an annual income of
$20,000, three farms, a body of students
numbering from ISO to 100, a large
building requiring a considerable a
mouut to put it in repair and proper
working order, a faculty consisting of
sixteen teachers and a current debt re
ported as amounting to some $55,000.
The farms are widely separated—one
in the eastern, another in the western
and another in the central part of the
State. The western farm is 111 110 sense
a model farm, and in no condition to
throw upon the market. In its present
state it Is an injury rather than a bene
fit to the college. It is an advertisement
against scientific fanning and not an il
lustration of its benefits. The eastern
farm is in a better condition, but it is
far from being what a model farm
should be. The central farm,in immedi
ate connection with 'the college, is all
that the friends of agricultural science
ought to require.
To hasten the liquidation of the debt,
to put the buildings in proper working
order, to supervise the farms, so far re
moved from the college itself that, as
model farms,they may properly exhib
it to the people the rich result of mod
ern sciences applied to agriculture, and
to bring the who'e work of the college
into closer sympathy with the farming
and industrial community of the State,
wo respectfully submit to the board the
following plan which in our judgement,
will best subserve the ends above men
tioned, without detracting from tbe
present professional thoroughness of
the institution:
1 President (duties as at nrespiit) *.:,000
2 Lecturer on Agriculture and Superin
tendent of the Parma, 2,500
3 Professor Agricultural Cliemestry and
Superintendent of Experimental
Stations, 1.500
4 Professor of Chemistry, 1.500
5 Professor of Botany and Horticulture. 1,200
0 Professor of Matiieinaticsland Civil
EnKiueering, 1,200
7 Professor of Modern Languages
(French. Herman and English) 1,200
8 Professor of Geology and Zoology and
Head Preparatory Department 1,200
0 Professor of Veterinary Science and
Physiology, and Assistant in Prepa
ratory 1,200
10 Professor of Military Science and
Tactics
11 Assistant 500
12 Assistant 500
Total cost of teaching force ♦15,500
This plan removes from the work of
the College the Latin and Greek lan
guages,except so far as the former may
be introduced iir the study of the
French. It adds, as we think, to the
efficiency of agricultural studies by sup
plying a lecturer on scientifij farming
who shall at the same time act as re
sponsible superintendent of the farms,
and also make room for the important
matter of veterinary science. These
additions we have thought well calcula
ted to answer the wishes of all mteli
gent farmers and secure their co-opera
tion.
Moreover, it leaves a balance of $14,-
000. This balance, we report, should
be devoted to the following uses: $6,000
to be applied to the farm distant from
the institution, and the remainder to
such incidental expenses as may seem
to be necessary to maintain the,'efficient
working of the college.
Respectfully submitted,

THE ACTION OF THE TRUSTEES AT
THE LATE MEETING IN REFERENCE
TO THE INSTITHTION.
To the Editor of the Patriot.
Tbe Patriot, of Wednesday morning,
March 26, contains an article purpor
ting to give an account of the proceed
ings of the board of trustees of the
State College at its meeting on the eve
ning of the 25th, which is so exactly
the opposite of the truth,that I am sure
you will desire to correct the error into
which you have been unwittingly led.
1. The statement that "the commit
tee could not work in harmony" is un
true, but if the writer only meant to
say that they could not agree in their
conclusions, that would state the exact
tact.
2 It is not true that "the president
of the college insisted upon retaining
the large faculty of sixteen instruc
tors." The number is not too large for
the work required, but it was apparent
that some reduction of the force would
have to bejAle, in order to bring ex-
and the pres
identofthe college, accordingly, long
before the appointment of this commit
tee was made,proposed to the executive
committee of the hoard of trustees the
abolition of the study of (truck, and
later when the special committee met
he proposed a still further reduction
though not so great nor of such kind as
was proposed by the majority of the
committee.
<l. It is !'Ot true that the report of the
majority of the committee was adopted.
On the contrary the report of the presi
dent of the college (the minority of the
committee), was adopted with onlj a
single modification, viz: "Combining
with another chair one that he believed
it better to maintain sepaiately."
4. The real question at issue, and one
which it is important the people of the
state should thoroughly understand,
was this: Shall the college continue its
present line of education policy, or
shall its organization bo recast on a
widely diffeienfc plan V The scheme
offered by the majority of the commit
tee (as printed in the Patriot ), was vir
tually to make the college exclusively
agricultural. There is no doubt that
such a cour-c would be acceptable to a
considerable number of intelligent
persons, but it was decisively rejected
by tho trustees. First, l>oea use it was
regarded as a direct violation of the
law of congress, governing the institu
tion; and, second, because it was not
believed to be in accord with the pre
valing public opinion or wish. The
law of congress, which the state of
Pennsylvania lias accepted, "with all
its provisions and conditions," defines
the scope of the institution in these
words: "The leading object shall be,
without excluding other seientilic and
classical studies.and including military
tactics,to teach such brunches of learn
ing as are related to agriculture and the
mechanic arts, in such a manner as the
legislature of the state piay ppr*cribe,in
order to promote the liberal and prac
tical education of the industrial classes
in the several pursuits and professions
in life."
It will be seen that tills law requires
provision to be made for teaching in
the "branches of learning relating to
mechanic arts," as fully as in those re
lating to agriculture. At the same
lime,the institution is to be a ' college"
devoted to "liberal" as well as "practi
cal" education. Accordingly, the
strength of the institution is deyoted to
instruction in the mathematical,physic
al, and natural sciences, with a view to
giving that broad and deep foundation
of exact knowledge which will pie bare
the student for a swccessful career in
any of tlie great industrial activities of
of our time. We are doing more in the
direction of scientific and progressive
agriculture than when that was the ex
clusive work of the institution ; but, in
addition to that, we are furnishing a
sound and liberal college education, on
the basis of the modern languages and
modern sciences.
The decision of the trustees was sim
ply to continue in this line of work
which is meeting with so many gratify
ing evidences of public favor, and
which does justice to all interests, with
injustice to none.
Yonrs respectfully,
GEO. W. ATHERTOX.

Maj. J. B. Fisher shipped a car load
of cattle to Philadelphia. Mr. R. Kline,
who went along says—"Ugh, what a
city Philadelphia is." Well, Reuben,
the older we get the more we find out.
The delegation Irom our neighboring
city, Penn Hall, who paid our new
landlord a visit on Saturday evening,
were compelled on their return home to
promenade the streets of their town, so
as to get some of their number into a
presentable condition before joining
their families. Well, boys, never take
more than you can haul—better not
take any, and it will be so much more
credit to you.
The R. R. bed is now ready for the

Brutally Murdered.
ALTOONA, Pa., April 7.— Mrs. Dr.
L. U. Beach, the wife of a prominent
physician, was discovered in a room at
her residence this morning, with her
head cut almost from her body. An
investigation developed circumstances
of so suspicious a character that the
doctor has been arrested. It is said
that he has already Admitted to a mem
ber of the family that he committed
the deed. Two large kniyes and a
clever used tor amputation purposes
were found beside the victim. The
coroner's jury found that Mrs. Beach
came to her death at the hands of her
husband, and the doctor was accord
ingly remanded to jail. lie admitted
that he killed his wife and wants to be
hung or shot. Since his arrest he tried
to borrow a knife,and 011 being refused,
asked for a pin,which was also refused,
as it is believed that de intends to com
mit suicide. He was received into the
Lutheran church only yesterday morn
ing and partook of communion. It is
generally believed that he is insaue.
The inquest developed the fact that
the couple did not live happily together.
The woman, who was about forty
years old, had been married twice be
fore, her last husband having been
shot and killed by a desperado two
years ago. She married Dr. Beach a
year ago. The doctor, who is of Ger
man birth and forty-four years old,had
a lucrative practice here. When he
ffftve the alarm-he went to his brother
in-law's house and told him he had
murdered his wife. The room where
the murdered woman was found shows
evidence of a severe struggle, and the
victim's hands were much hacked by
clutching the knife used by the murder
er. Her head was held to her body by
only about half an inch of flesh. The
doctor's socks and underclothing were
found and showed many blood stains.
Excessive smoking of cigarettes was
shown to haye made a raving madman
of a promising young man. .judge
I'endergast, in the County Court at
Chicago,listened to the testimony. Na
thaniel Hogalsky, a very emaciated He
brew clerk of twenty-two, was the lu
natic, and the evidence proved that he
had been'in the habit of smoking daily
three or four bunches, or sixty to
eighty cigarettes, of the noxious wfed.
For two weeks past he had shown un
mistakable signs of insanity. The jury
found him insane, and added that
nervous debility caused by excessive
smoking was the cause. Kogalsky's
friends will pay the exj>enses of his
keeping in a lunatic asylum.
