' love mania 759:31 PNY 3 John Thompson Drown. KN OHN THGMPSON BROWN, the subject of this sketch, is if ,Q descended long from every side. The sterling worth of his Y ancestors has been a stimulus to him for patriotic effort on behalf of ' his people and State, which has made his citizenship of the most useful character. He was born February 19th, 1861, near Old Church, Hanover County, Virginia, at Stanley, the residence of his grandmother, Mrs. St. George Tucker Coalter, and is the only son of Anne Frances Bland CCoalterQ and Henry Peronneau Brown. His parents lived in Bedford County, Virginia, although they spent the winters from 1868 to 1877 in Petersburg. His maternal great-grandfather was john Coalter, of Augusta County, Judge of the Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia, and, through him, he is related to many of the Scotch-Irish families of America. His maternal great-grand- mother was Anne Frances Bland Tucker, the half-sister of john Randolph of Roanoke, and his maternal grandparents were Judy Harrison QTomlinj and St. George Tucker Coalter. His great-grandfather, on the paternal side, was Henry Brofwn, of Bedford County, Virginia, whose brother, Samuel, was a distin- guished Presbyterian minister in Rockbridge County and married Mary Moore tof Abb's Valley famej, daughter of James Moore. His grandfather, Io-hn Thomp- son Brown, was born in 18o2, at '5 Ivy Clifff' Bedford County, Virginia, the old homestead, which has been continuously in the family since 1755. His abilities were of such a high order as to entitle him to more than a passing notice. After graduating with highest honors at Princeton, he commenced the practice of law at Clarksburg, Harrison County, at that time in this State, which county he represented in the General Assembly, and, while aimember, married Mary Fdloe Vfillcox, daughter of John Vaughan VVillcoX, of Petersburg, and, moving there, was immediately elected to represent that city in the General Assembly. He was especially prominent in the great slavery debate of 1832, and was a man of the highest culture and brilliant prospects, but died of typho-id fever in 1836. Those who had the pleasure of visiting his parents, Mr. and Mrs. H. Peron- neau Brown at lvy Cliff, will bear willing testimony to their cultivation and hospitality. There, at their beautiful home, grew up the present john Thompson Brown. He was educated at the school of Captain W. Gordon McCabe, in Peters- burg, Virginia, and afterwards at the University of Virginia and was a favorite at both institutions. As a student he was noted, not only for his good sense and judgment, but was likewise distinguished for his prowess in all athletic games, 3 ,.lum..-.iQi:-.::l. .... ...- Mr. Brown t Phvsicallv as well as intellectually, - . - . f ' el interes . , . 1 , .

' t M J Mr. Brown took an active part in the deliberations of the Fafllwfb Assembly, a voluntary association of representative farmers from all parts State, which preceded the Alliance, and met annually for several years. was a member of the executive committee, and with the late H. M. Magruder, or Albemarle County, and others, urged especially the necessity of putting the Virginia Agricultural and Mechanical College, now the Virginia Polytechnic Institute, in the hands of practical farmers and mechanics. He was appointed by Governor McKinney to the bo-ard of visitors of this College, in March, 1890, to fill an unexpired term, and in january, 1892, was appointed to the full term on the board, by Governor McKinney. At the end of the term, january, 1896, he was not reappointed by Governor 0'Ferrall, although his appointment was earnestly urged by his colleagues on the bo-ard and the friends and patrons of the College, but he was appointed to the full term by Governor Tyler, in January. 1898, and, on' the resignation of Captain Charles E. Vawter, was unanimously elected rector of the board-a deserved recognition of the success of his efforts for the advancement of the institution. As a Democrat, he represented Bedford of the County in the Legislature in the session of 1891-92, and served the party as Democratic elector on the Cleveland ticket for the Sixth Congressional District in 1892.

In a letter written on the third of May,pCaptain Charles E. Vawter thus speaks of Mr. Brown: Mr. John Thompson Brown was associated with me several years on the board of visitors of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute. There I learned to know him well and to appreciate his worth. I found him to be a man of sterling integrity, high character and firmness of purpose. He is slow to come to a decision. I-Ie weighs carefully both sides of a question. But, when he decides what is right, he adheres to it, let the consequences be what they may. He acts from principle, not policy. As a State o-fhcial, he is always true to his trust. Wlhile always generous, kind and true to his friends, he never seeks the advancement of any one at the expense of the State. I-Ie is a delightful social companion, a true friend, a faithful officer and a Christian gentleman. The present prosperity of the College is largely due to his faithfulness and Hrmnessf' Nothing can be added to the force of this language. Praise from Captain Yawter is praise indeed. ' 1 .

Section 4 of this act provides that the proceeds of the land scrip shall be inviolably appropriated by each State which may take and claim the benefit oi this act to the endowment, support and maintenance of at least one college Where the leading object shall be, without excluding other scientific and classical studies, and including military tactics. to teach such branches oi learning as are related to agriculture and the mechanic arts, in such manner as the legislatures of the States may respec- tively prescribe, in order t0 promote the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes in the several pursuits and professions of liief, This congressional grant was accepted by the General Assembly of Virginia in 1872, and in the fall of this year the Virginia Agricultural and Mechanical College was opened to students. The first Board of Visitors oi the College, consisting of nine members, with Dr. Harvey Black, of Blacksburg, as Rector, held their first meeting at the Exchange Hotel in Richmond, March 25th, 1872. A committee of three was appointed to report at the next meeting oi the Board a plan of organization and instruction for the new College. V The Board convened again on the eighteenth of July at the Montgomery XYhite Sulphur Springs, and continued in laborious session 'i for three days. A very elaborate report of the committee on organization was read beiore the Board and the Trustees oi the Preston and Clin Tnstitute. judge A. A. Phlegar, of Christiansburg, representing the Board of Supervisors of Montgomery County, shoxved that the county had complied with the conditions required by the Act of Assembly approved March 21st 1872, entitled An Act to authorize subscriptions in aid of the Virginia Agricultural and Mechanical College at Blacksburg, by voting the requisite 320,000 by a large majority. it it A deed of conveyance of the property of Preston and Qlin Institute was then made. 1 II 1 A-g:.4.:f..g , It was at this meeting that the Board purchased from Colonel Robert T. S l'tude',-now occupied by Preston his beautiful home estate known as . oi Professor D. O. Nourse. According to resolution, the Board held their next meeting at the Yellow Sulphur Springs on the fourteenth of August. The purpose of this meeting was to elect a Faculty of the College. The first catalogue C1872-73a gives the following Faculty and officers: Charles L. C. Minor, A. M., president, james l 'l l 'eneral chemistry, and military H. Lane, A. M., professor of natural p ii osop iy, g tactics' Gray Carroll, M. A., professor of mathematics and modern languages: Charles Martin, M. A., professor of English language and literature, and ot ancient languages, john XV. C. Davis, B. S., C. and M. B., professor of agricul- ture and mechanics, M. G. Ellzey, M. D., professor of natural history and analytical chemistry, V. F.. Shepherd, treasurer, secretary of the faculty, and librarian 3 J. Seddon Harvie, farm manager. A The Faculty soon became divided on questions of policy and management of the Institution. The Bo-ard of Visitors then removed President Minor, elect- ing in his stead, on the tenth of December, I87Q, Dr. .lohn L. Buchanan. His term of office lasted only about six months. A new Board of Visitors niet in Blacksburg in 1880 and effected a reorganization of the Faculty. Colonel Scott Shipp, now Superintendent of the Virginia Military Institute, was made presi- dent. He remained as such only one day, then tendered his resignation which was duly accepted. The president's place for the session of 1880-81 was filled by Mr. john Hart, who was then the professor of English. The Board in a meeting held in June, 1881, again elected Dr. Buchanan. president. Soon Governor Cameron appointed an entirelv new lioard which met in Richmond in january, 1882. This brought about an-other reorganization which resulted in the election of a new Faculty with Captain Thomas X. Com-,nl as president. Wfhen Fitzhugh Lee was elected Governor another Board of Yisitors was appointed which effected important changes. General L. L. Lomax. an officer of distinction in the Confederacy, was elected president. In the year 1888, the Agricultural F.xperiment Station became a ilep-11-1- ment of the College. i From the above sketch it will be noted that the progress ul. the tlillt---tr for the first nineteen o-r twenty years of its existence was on the MMI, RIT indeed.

General Loinax tendered his resignation in April, 1891. From this time until june, Professor li. Christian, of the chair of mathematics and civil engineering, was the acting president. On the seventh of May, 1891, the Board of Visitors elected as president of the College and director of the Experiment Station Ur. john M. Mcllryde, a native of South Carolina and recent president of the L'nix'crsity of that State. ln june, Dr. McBryde made an able report to the lloard setting forth his ideas as to the needs of the College, and in July he assumed full charge of his duties as president. Wlieii the session of 1891-92 opened, the outlook was anything but promising. The number of students in actual attendance was hardly more than eighty, the buildings were few in num- ber, and the equipment was meagre and inadequate. Through the nine years of the present administratio-n the College has undergone a complete transforma- tion. To Dr. McBryde,s superior executive skill and ability, to his wisdom, foresight, untiring efforts, and sincere devotion to the interests of education, is due the honor of having lifted the College from a. low plane to a position of pre-eminence among the technical schools of the South. No sooner had Dr. McBryde accepted the presidency than he began to push forward vigorously the work of increasing the efficiency and power of the Institution. Such a work demanded constant attention and unrelenting effort. The reward has come. The era of expansion has manifested itself in manifold ways. The grounds of the College have been greatly extended and cover now more than four hundred acres. The beautiful campus alone consists of sixty- three acres. New buildings have gone up in rapid succession. Those that now adorn the campus are the two large academic buildings, containing library, lecture-rooms, laboratories, etc., two commodious dormitories, with steam heat and electric light, nine professors, houses, including residence of president, shops, a spacious dining hall and commencement hall, the agricultural experi- ment station, a creamery, and cheese factory, and cannery. The handsome Young Menls Christian Association building, recently begun, is now nearing completion. It will be noted that this College is the first in the State to erect a building of this kind. , The prosperity of the Institute continues. The one hundred thousand dollars appropriated by the Legislature of Virginia in IQOO, is being most wisely used in the erection of required new buildings and in increasing the general equipment of the College. Already a large and costly barn on the farm has been completed. A machinery barn, pig barn and an abattoir are soon to be added. There are now in course of erection the president's new residence, which will adorn the beautiful College grove, and on the campus, a large science hall, a new dormitory, a central power plant, and a much needed infirmary. The shops have received recent additions. The Faculty has been largely increased and now numbers thirty or more professors and instructors, and still there is a demand for a more enlarged teach- ing force. 13 ...- , .,,,,',,' v ff 1 even of four years each leading The courses of instruction o erec are S , . p ' fl to the B S degree: Agriculture, horticulture, applied chemistry, gellefd science civil engineering, mechanical engineering, and electrical engineering! 7 , - ' A ' and two shorter courses in practical mechanics and practical agriculture U1 which only certificates are given. Post-graduate courses leading to the M..S., C. E., M. E., and E. E. degrees are likewise offered. This being a technical College, it is but natural that the department of science should.be most .strongly emphasized, yet with the scientific branches there are happily combined the more liberal and literary courses of instruction in English, History, Pohtlcal. Economy, Latin, German, French, and Spanish. i lt is interesting indeed to note the gradual increase in student attendance since the complete reorganization in 1891. The number of students enrolled for the successive sessions is as follows: 1891-92, II6, 1892-93, 1775 189394- 2365 1864-95,325a 1395-96, 336s 1396-971 3363 1867-98, 3335 1393-99, 363s 1899-19oo, 343, 19oo-o1, 386. The reduced attendance in session 1898-99 is to be explained by the abolishment of the sub-freshman department. The present enrollment far exceeds that of any other schoo-l or college in the State, except- ing of course the University. The thoroughness and efficiency of the work done at the College. are best evidenced by the remarkable success of the gra.duate students who cognnand remunerative and responsible positions as instructors in colleges and universi- ties, mechanics, chemists, agriculturists, engineers in the United States Rcvcnnc Cutter Service, etc.,.etc. During the present session eleven out of the iiftccn attending post-graduates have received lucrative employment in New York. Pennsylvania, Wfashington, and other States. The religious interests of the student body are sedulously attcndcd to. Every effort is made to inculcate in the students principles of gcntlcinanly conduct and right living, and to advance their moral and spiritual wclfarc. 'lihc village churches, the Young Menls Christian Association Cstrongcr non' than ever beforeb, the numerous Sunday-school and Bible classcs, many of which arc conducted by members of the Faculty, all throw about the students an inllncncc of refinement and culture, and surround them with an atmosphere of nnwrzilitx and Christian activity. ' ' The complete isolation of the College, inviting quict study and stndions and exemplary habits, the careful and thorough work donc in catch dcpartincnt the success of her students, all combine to render thc Yii-Q-inigi lkilvtccliiiic Institute a college of great po-wer and inllucncc, commanding thc low, iwspcct and Dgfarm support of the State, and the admiration of thc cntirc South. lit1Yk'l'- norl - .. ..

These are experienced from the time of the first visit to the administration building, when the exceedingly fresh Freshmen-in our parlance, 'K Rats -make themselves generally obnoxious by taking every one for either an official guide or an employee of some bureau of information, until, after having spent four years in studying how to dodge inspectors, squirm out of various kinds of duty, especially in the military, they take their departure firmly convinced that in their loss their alma mater suffers an irreparable injury and--perhaps rightly-that she will never see their like again. For those, the Class of '01, who have worked together in the classroom, who have striven together on the diamond and on the gridiron, and who have drilled together, side by side, through four years o-f such life, is this history written, and should it perchance prove of any small interest to them the historian will feel that his task has in part been accomplished. To them, but not to the uninitiated, does he apologize for the many denciencies he is compelled to acknowledge. ' Wfith the opening of the session of '97-98 appeared the vanguard of the Class of Naughty Une and it is with feelings of deepest gratitude that we recall the warm reception accorded us on all occasions. The President and the Young Men's Christian Association showed their anxiety to assist us in the way in which we should go and their willingness to remove the stones from the narrow and rocky path, while o-ur beloved professors at the entrance examina- tions were so struck with the knowledge and wisdom displayed that they seemed loath to let us out of their sight. The Sophs, most thorough of all instructors, went further ,than that, they were extremely unwilling to let us, get so much as out of reach. Class organization was soon attended to and with Bean for president, Hicks vice-president, Gibboniey secretary and treasurer, Lightfoot sergeant-at-arms, and Foland historian we entered upon our career. That it was checkered, we know full well, and when some of the bolder spirits raised our pennant, bearing the insignia, 'K Rats no more, to the top of the reservoir. many of us thought that it would likewise be brief. But such times are soon gone and now when the Senior year is at a close we remember with many a pang of regret the good old days of rat-hoodf, wondering how we could ever have wished them over. U4 49 f aa.- zzfmz. .s 9 As we had been so carefully looked after during the days of our infancy, when we again journeyed to the halls of our alma mater we naturally felt it incumbent upon us to prove ourselves worthy of the most hoSP1table enteflam' ment extended us the preceding September, and, while we do not claim to eXC6l all others in everything we nevertheless feel srrre that an unbiased judgment would give us full credit for a thorough discharge of duty in this respect. How- ever, in renewing the friendships and acquaintances formed during the .year of our bondage, our exuberant spirits were somewhat dampened by noting the absence of many who we had every reason to believe would have reflected honor and credit upon our class and upon themselves had they been permitted to return. All that could be done to ill the blanks was to fashion, as nearly as possible, the new aspirants to milita.ry glory so that they might in time replace the absent. One of our most pleasant duties early in the term was the class reorganization, and in the election of Hicks as president, Sample vice-president, Powell secretary and treasurer, I-Iuffard sergeant-at-arms, and Davidson his- torian, we made worthy selections. May they in future years serve themselves as well as they did their class at all times and on all occasions! But very soon matters of more import began to interest us. To our sorrow we found the old adage that all study and no play makes Jack a dull boy could work both ways and many were the lamentations concerning time spent in almost every wa.y except on our text-books. Of course good resolutions were plentiful, in fact so numerous were they that no one thought it worth his while to carry out those he had made in his hour of dire distress, consequently history repeated itself, and we are led to believe it will continue to repeat itself, in so far as V. P. I. examinations are concerned, to the end o-f time. Scarcely before we realized it, the cry Come on june had been answered and once more we were speeding towards our ho-mes. - ' In September of '99, only sixty-odd of the original hundred or more returned to the scenes of their early struggles. These, with two new recruits, constituted the junior Class of the session '99-oo. This year the offices of president, vice-b president, secretary and treasurer, historian and sergeant-at-arms were ably filled by Sample, Huffard, Bralley, Fleet and Van Dyke. Some one has said-and I suppose he knew-that the junior year is the ideal year of a college life. Yet who will deny that it is also the year when the greatest part of one's real work is done? The time when, if ever, he rnnsl specialize and determine along what line the mighty influence of his intellect shall assert itself? There is also a tendency, just at this time, to show the Seniors that after all the sergeant's chevrons are not to be wholly eeliipgprl at HM. U-Q,-umm oron tl-r 'T - '- -I S ' o lei occasions, when the fan sex relieve, rn no snrall rneasnre, the monoton of milit ' -a . , - . . . Y ary life. I am sure none of us have forgotten the trip to Rich- mond during the Carnival or tl X' , . VX e have every reason to feel proud of the slrowrnn- uvulc rw tru. fm N 1, ,tl - . ' rs 1 . ' r r rn the long march and 1 tl lf r- -f .1 . .- , . I as 11 re cress parades and drills held during our star' there, re many courtesies extended ns while in the city. 50 I might add, that the 111611 of 'OI l1ave the right to believe that the part they took was, to say the least, of no 11162111 importance. Early i11 tl1e spring we were called upon to decide what kind of uniform should delight tl1e fe111ale eyes tl1e next year, and, incidentally, afifordiourselves the proper a111ount of satisfaction and complacency. Marvelous and unique were some of the designs suggested, while one or two, if adopted, would have made .l'oseph's coat-shining with colors as it was-turn gree11 with envy. Fortunately for our appearance i11 the ballroom, if for no other reason, some of tl1e more conservative 1'1ll11ClS finally prevailed, and a selection was made which every one declared to be just what I wantedf' At the final ball of this year, which of course all of us a.ttended, we had our first opportunity of seeing just how far our 11ewly acquired dignity-and uniform-would carry us. In tl1e fall of 19oo, after many days of impatient waiting, we too-k charge of the military department of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and at once gave our esteemed commandant instructions as to how we wished this part of the work to progress. Of course, during the first week, we were so busy learning to assume the pro-per air in o-rder to leave others under the impression that we had been wearing shoulder-straps all our lives, that we had no time to think of anything else. But in a little while this feeling of absolute ownership passed away and we found that after all there are thorns in every path, even a Seniorls. At our first meeting it was found that all but forty-four l1ad fallen by the wayside or else had decided that they already knew as much as most ordinary people and preferred to go out into the world of their own accord before being kicked out. President Huffard presided at this meeting a11d it was found that all of our officers had returned. These are: Van Dyke vice-president, Hicks secretary and treasurer, De Camps, historian, and Kinney sergeant-at-arms. Vfhen the football season came to an end, we almost unconsciously decided in our ow11 minds that there was hardly anything to do but wait for the Christmas holi- days. I-Iow long they are coming and how soon they are gone! Immediately upon the reopening of college we were struck with the fact that intermediate examinations are in sight, yet strange to say the work done at this time, when most needed, is not such as to make one feel that he has seriously impaired his l1ealtl1. Every one is busy trying to convince every one else that tl1e time he had during the holidays was better than that spent by any o11e else. In March, we were given a chance to see a little more of the practical side of our work. At this time, tl1e faculty kindly arranged so that we could visit Richmond, Newport News, Norfolk and Portsmoutli, a11d, while at those various points, examine the great number of operations going on in engineering, science and industry. After a week or ten days of this mingled work and pleasure we again found ourselves a.t our respective quarters, there to remain until we start for Buffalo. And, when we reach this city, I trust no one will wish-as in the good old days when a circus would come to town-to go see the Exposition come in. 51 - 4 ,, .fn-.gmuzzr - It inight not be out of place to mention some of those who have materially assisted in the development of our athletics, and, just here, allow me to say that no class has ever done more towards the success of our teams than has the Class of 'oi. ln our lfreslnnan year, we were worthily represented on the grid- iron by Rucker, Painter, and Scott, and on the diamond by Durphey, Willciiis, and Slcelding. When we were Sophs, Carper, Huffard and Painter, on the foot- ball team, and Du Priest, Durphey and Gwathmey in ba.seball saw to it that the work so well begun the year before should not be dro-pped. In the session of 'oo-oo, lluffard, Carper, De Camps and Moffett were our football representatives and llall, E. C., Du Priest, De Camps and Miles were on the baseball team. This year we have Huffard Ccaptainj, Carper, Miles, Moffett and De Camps o-n the eleven while in baseball, Hall, E. C., Miles, Du Priest, Williaiiis and De Camps uphold the reputation of our Class. In our junior year, We had every reason to be congratulated on the success of our Class baseball team. They finished with a clean record,winning every game and bearing off the pennant of the Class league. lt is hard to realize that the time has come when We must part, when each of us, whether he has learned little or much, must go his Way alone, and by his own resources inscribe his name on the temple of fame or else be numbered among those-by far a large majority-upon whom fortune refuses to smile. HISTORIAN. I ffm.,-u ' , .Q i I h xi a lf, rg, ' i W ... fa f 'f- 1,l, - 52 'W 4 r l 3 l Class Prophecy. HE following, while they are called prophecies, are in reality merely obiter dicta. An obiter dictum, says Old judge, ' in the language of the law, is a gratuitous opinion, an individua.l impertinence, which whether it be wise or foolish, right or wrong, bindeth none-not even the lips that utter it. fXLLEN, after leaving his alma mater will take a special course in telephone construction, directing his abilities to the invention of a 'phone through which it is possible to converse with a girl without having the central as a listener. Hav- ing failed in this, he will accept a position with Tesla as chief interpreter of the language of the inhabitants of Mars. . .ASHTON will turn his persuasive powers to the task of convincing the inhab- itants of Montgomery County that it is necessary, for the good' of humanity, that Blacksburg be connected with Christiansburg by a macadamized road. He will also lead them to believe that he is the only civil engineer in the country capable of constructing this road and will be awarded the contract. He will make such a success of this work that he will deem it necessary to pay Roanoke a visit. Not having Duck along to supervise his celebration he will never recover. BRALLEY, being highly recommended by the College authorities, will be given the position of assistant engineer of a mining company in West Virginia. He will marry -an heiress and will retire to her tobacco plantation, where he will spend the rest of his life in the cultivation of his favorite weed. BRODIE on graduating will accept a position with the Norfolk and Vlfestern Railway. But finding that his talents do not run in the mechanical line, he will engage in detective work, where all of his well known talents will come actively into play. The spirits say that BROOKE, actuated by his firm belief in the benefits of a military education, will decide to remain in Blacksburg for the next fouryears as assistant commandant. In 1905, the board of visitors will request his resigna- tion because of mutiny among the students, the outcome of his leniency towards them. Eventually, he will practice law in one of our rural districts. In 1905 we will notice in the papers that DR. RoBERT W. CARPER has grad- uated from the University College of Medicine in Richmond. We who know 'K Bob J' will be glad to learn that he has turned to valuable account the practical knowledge of the medicinal art gained in our excellent infirmary. Earnest prayers should be offered for the charity patients of Botetourt County, on whom will fall the burden of furnishing experience for this pupil of the Henderson School. 53 -----Q-ev-'N --V - P ' -fe----: 2-fxa..e1:.fff::,-.3-----agf 43z, '-'-11-14-A-.- .

DE CAMPS will return to ac isa. Z, y to pursue a course in general athletics. After this period, being attracted by the peculiar advantages of the soutl1eastern part of our State he will locate in Norfolk as consulting engineer. DERRICK, after leaving college, will devote himself to researches in that department of science known as thermodynamics. After years of labor he will succeed in isolating Entropy. This, he will find to be six inches long, green, with yellow st-ripes. He will then be employed by the Virginia Polytechnic Insti- tute at a very remunerative salary, to explain to tl1e Senior Class in engineering the nature of tl1is queer thing, Finding time hanging heavily on his hands, he will make 'K 11igl1t hideous with sonatas executed o11. the piccolo. DoLLMAN's future is a blank up to the time when he comes before the Ameri- can public as end man in Derrick and DuPriest's great minst-rel sl1ow. In this line he will make a decided success. Beyond the fact that DUPRIEsT's love for music will prevent l1is ever becom- ing an electrical engineer and that he will turn his attention to composing cake- walks, nothing is revealed. EARL13 will rest for a few months in Vtfarren County. But, missing military duty, which he finds necessary to make life bearable, he will return to Blacksburg for a special course in military science. He will decide to include with this the iourse i11,Engl.isl1 inagurated by Professor Hudnall for tl1e special benefit of the .co-eds. This will give him ample opportunity to indulge his sleeping propen- s1t1e-s. 'We finally see him the proprietor of a small country store, where custo- mers are not so numerous as to disturb l1is slumbers. becoiiiiIeEciT'Ele6clfiPIalgieiiifiiifiiicjtiicliiiosccifaiii tn is' imposfible io Say what Wm for an indeinite ' gd 1 H .

But finding this position too confining for his health, he will resign to become commandant at a small military school, which office he will fill with credit, thanks to the training of Colonel Johnson. G-xxxxrnmizx' will become proprietor of a large publishing-house and will make a specialty of the publication of college magazines. Being especially fitted for this class of work by his long and successful management of The Gray faclect he will build up a very profitable business. HALL, E. C., will attempt to rival Richard Harding Davis. He will make the acquaintance of the cold, cold world as a reporter on the staff of the Rich- mond Nctvs and will have a brilliant career, making his reputation reporting the campaign of Colonel Sample in the Race War of IQI2. Hi-XLL, WV. D., will accept the position of fireman in a sawmill combine, traveling through Southwest Virginia. Being far too proud to hold this position, he will aspire to become fireman o-n the Norfolk and Western Railway. After long perseverance, he will attain this coveted position and will be at the summit of his ambition. HUFFfXRD, after filling the position of assistant chemist in a steel works for a number of years, will suddenly become famo-us through the invention of a fertilizer, through the agency of which, the farmers of his native county will be enabled to produce some other crop than cabbage. After amassing considerable wealth, he will retire to a quiet country home, where he will pass the remainder of his days, amusing his grandchildren with tales of his numerous and successful horse-trades. ' HICKS will endeavor to fill the vacancy left by the great evangelist, Moody, and will begin his chosen work by trying to convert some of the inhabitants of the land of Prexie the Great. Becoming disgusted with their hard-heartedness, he will next tackle Darkest Africa, but because of his susceptibility to the charms of the fair sex, he will speedily reach his end in the form of mock-turtle soup, served at a state banquet of the King of Timbuctoos. JACKSON, upon leaving the Virginia Polytechnic Institute will cross the ocean to Italy where he will put his voice through a course of training. He will return to America, where he will make such a hit that Jean de Reszke will commit suicide from jealously. After being the idol of the American public for a number of years, he will accept the position of instructor of the chapel choir, which through his able instruction will gain a world-wide reputation. JACOBS, having discovered a method of watering milk without the water being detected, will succeed in procuring the contract for supplying the College mess with milk. Finding this contract very profitable, he will be enabled in a few years to retire from active business life. He will then turn his attention to devising means by which Rats can be persuaded to attend the Baptist Sunday-- school. Being highly successful in this he will be rewarded for his labors by being made president of the Baptist Young Peopleis Union. 55 .Un ,. .'..,Jv l , ' .J - I- - tl KINNIW will return to Blacksburg 111 tl1e fall of IQOI, in O1ClC1 to pursue 16 - , -- -' - 1- e first month he will post-graduate course 111 electiical engmeeiing. Aftel th decide that he needs a rest a11d will go i11to partnership- with ua traveling fakir who clai111s to have the power of putting people into a trance-like sleep. From this l1e will amass a large fortune. Seized with an ambition to imbibe that little part of the whole sphere of know- ledge wl1icl1 l1e does not already possess, LEAR will study at Cornell-.for three months during the session of I9oI-o2. He will then return to l11s native town, and after vainly trying to Hlld a field for his varied talents will accept the position of teacher i11 a village school. I MANN, after graduating, will travel in Europe for the purpose of broadening his knowledge of electricity. But his one fczrzzlt-fo111d11ess for tl1e fair sex-will cause l1is downfall. Being captivated by a French maiden, he will settle down a11d spend tl1e rest of his days in a suburb of Paris. I NIARSHALL will endeavor to become a civil engineer but owing to 11'1Sb11'- mountable difficulties in learning the most elementary branches of mathematics l1e will never rise above tl1e position of rodsman. Being persuaded to give this up, l1e will join Mrs. Carrie Nation in her temperance crusade. iXiILES, on the completion of his course, will go to work in earnest on his project of extracting nitrogen from the air. Being persuaded to abandon this idea, on account of the fact that too much oxygen will cause Kinney to live too fast, l1e will obtain a position as trainer of Yale's football team, of which-so says tl1e oracle-he will make a dismal failureg beyond this nothing is revealed. MOFFETT, on gradua.ting, will not leave Blacksburg, but will remain here working on his great project-an underground, electric railway to the Yellow Sulphur Springs. After completing this and disposing of it at an enormous price, he will take up his pet study of oratory and end his days striving to enter the Legislature. , MONCURE will NVi11 much reputation as a biologist a.nd will procure a govern- ment position in tl1e Philippines. After holding this position for several years H Uncle Sam will be forced to transfer him to his former home, Wfillianisburg, where he will end his days in harmless p-rattle about a new species of bugs which l1e has discovered.

This ex-tank U will then become the leader in a crusade against vice in the slums of Qlgllacksburg. lqtltll' will study medicine and will then practice in the densely populated county of Craig. .liinding the population too sparse and healthy t0 make a living by his profession, he will distribute over the country a quantity of free samples of his Long Life Tabules, by means of which he will soon acquire a large practice. lQLlI7l5 will secure a position with the General Electric Company. Quickly becoming tired of his position, he will return home. He will next be employed by Hamptons leading tailor as EL walking model. Wliile thus employed he will succeed in eloping with the daughter of a Chica.go pork packer, who winters at Uld Point. A S.x111fLE will return to his native State where he will engage in the manu- facture of turpentine. In the Race VVar of IQ12, being distinguished for his bravery, he will be promoted to the rank of colonel. After the war, Ending a quiet life distasteful, he will enter the field of politics and being sent to Congress by the Populist party, he will die of heart failure at the close of a three hours, speech advocating the removal of the tax on corn whiskey. T013 SLOAN will pursue po-st-graduate work at some large co-ed. univer- sity. After obtaining his E. E. Degree, he will endeavor to secure a position in the line which he has chosen. Finding this impossible, he will become his father's stenographer. Coming suddenly, by the death of an uncle, into great wealth, he will spend the remainder of his short life leading germans at summer resorts. TR13yER1oN will take up a course in mining engineering at Cornell. After receiving his degree there he will obtain a position in western Pennsylvania as chief engineer for the Vtfestvania Mining Company, where he will come to an untimely end in the great mine disaster of IQI8. DUTCHY 'J XAAN DYICIE is destined to spend the first ten years from date attempting to pass agricultural chemistry. Finally, to get rid of him, he will be graduated and through the influence of his uncle he will secure a position in the Department of Agriculture at VVashington. His spare moments will be spent in trying to trace his descent from the Van Dyke Bros. VVEBB, finding electrical engineering entirely too burdensome for his brain. will join the reporting staff of one of our yellow journals. In this he will make his mark by reporting the solution of the great Blacksburg mystery without even a clewf' He will end his useful and laborious life on the stage, acting a man. W'1LL1.x11s on graduating from the University of Virginia with the degree of Bachelor of Laws will practice law in his native town of Vlfytheville. Gaining great notoriety by his valuable services in the Powell defalcation case he will at once obtain a large and lucrative practice. A i Vvlith VVOLTZ, electrical engineering is a secondary matter as compared with his thirst for military fame. After vainly striving to enter VVest Point he will 57 - w.......,,,,,c,,dfe15lf3i.5..1,,H,.1 s,a.,,T1...f. .............1 fall back on his profession of electrical engineering and will enthuse Northern capitalists with the idea of forming a stock company for the purpose of lighting the streets of Gala and will settle down at his former home as superintendent of this plant. Wfoon will become the owner of a large farmg his cattle will be frequent prize winners in the Montgomery County Fairs, and will become famous both in the United States and Europe. He will be chosen president o-f the Southwest Viroiinia Cattle Raisers' Association and later will be elected a member off the b Legislature. YOUNG, finding electrical engineering beneath his dignity, will aspire to become a statesman a.nd with this end in View will study law at Columbia University. On obtaining his degree there he will begin the practice of law in Richmond. After failing in several attempts to gain a seat in the Senate he will turn his attention entirely to commercial law of which he will make a decided success. S24 .

Passing over the year when-quoting the words which occur in nearly every class lllStO'1:flH21S verdant Freshmen we first entered these classic walls, and, trembling, saw our names inscribed on the matriculation list 'ig and passing over our second year, when, clad in the air of authority which invests the Sopho- more, we comforted homesick rats, we come to the Junior yea.r. As Freshmen, we came to the Virginia Polytechnic Institute' in September with fear and trembling, as Sophomores, with only the desire to entertain Freshmeng but as Juniors, how different! A junior is the ideal college studentg he has a proper self-respect which is neither the self-love of the Senior, nor the conceit of the Sophomore. He has passed that period when the highest attainable object is cutting classes and drill 5 he realizes that he has come to college for a definite pur- pose, and, recognizing his superior abilities, the professors hasten to burden him with a double share of work. lfVe began the session of igoo-or with about seventy members. Several familiar faces were missed when we reassembled here at the beginning of the session, and we found, with sorrow, that some of our most popular men had been unable to return. Amo-ng them were Watson, Lee, Ballard, Jackson, and others, whom we could ill afford to lose. Qur loss, however, was greatly com- pensated by a new addition, Chewning, who has proved himself well worthy of the honor which attaches to the title Junior. Football practice began on the opening of College, and, both on the first team and on the scrubs, our class distinguished itself. Our past football reco-rd was one of the highest order, and we fully came up to that record again this session. Cn the first team, our class was represented by Carpenter. full-back, McCormick, left tackle, and Hardaway, half-back,+all star players, Miller, Sayers, Brooke, Longley, and others, did excellent work on the second team. Wfere it not for modesty, we might also point to the fact that, on several occasions, members of our Class acted as linesmen, water-carriers, etc. Regular football practice was discontinued after Thanksgiving, but, in order to develop material for next year's team, class football teams were organized in the latter part of December, and games arranged. However, Christmas holidays inter- 66 ff X. vening, only one of these games came OE, the Junior-Sophomore game. Qui- team was ably coached by Carpenter,-who was also full-back and captain,- and gained a complete victory. The odds were decidedly against us, but never- theless all offers were covered by various class-spirited members, and the many who were so lamentably lacking in judgment as to back the Sophomores were sadder and wiser that night. Vvfhen time was called, the score stood II to o in favor of the juniors. Wle hoped, shortly afterwards, to annihilate in like manner the Seniors, but were prevented by the arrival of the Christmas holidays. The two short weeks passed all too quickly, and it seemed as if we had hardly gotten home when we had to begin the return trip. Un January 4th, we reassembled with numbers little diminished, but this loss, though small numerically, was severe, for we failed to see the cheerful face of Admiral Dewey. Osterbind was also absent. He had gone home several weeks before Christ- mas, on account of sickness, but we fully expected to see him back again after the holidays. However, he was unable to return, much to our sorrow. Hardly were we back, when intermediates' were upon us, finding nearly every one unprepared. From this trying ordeal the Junior Class emerged with high honors, fully sustaining our past reputation as a class which succeeds in both the physical and the me-ntal departments of the College. Some few UQ of our Class met their VVaterloo on mechanics examination, others found calculus too theoretical 3 others yet were lloored by military science and tactics, but on the whole we may well be proud of the results of the intermediates. The Class of IQO2 is ever in the van of the army of progress. To us will belong the honor of introducing the new style of Senior uniform which has been authorized for next session. After several class meetings, consultations with the tailor, and much changing and rechanging, we at last decided on the uniform which is to work woful destruction among the hearts of the feminine sex during the approaching summer. At last the winter snows have melted, the mud has become only ankle-deep instead of knee-deep, the wind blows only twenty-three hours out of every twenty-four, and we are troubled with rain only six days a week. All nature rejoices--in a mild, Blacksburg way-and Spring is at hand. As the poet fittingly remarks, 'C' In the Spring a young manis fancy lightly turns to thoughts of-baseball. Following the traditional young man's line of thought. we have turned our minds to baseball. Wfith Military U Davison as captain, Bolton as manager, and a large array of competitors for the class team, we will, doubtless, succeed fully as well in this as we did in football last fall. Burrall, McCormick, Carpenter, and Longley, of our Class, are on the first team, Burrall being captain. Truly has it been said that in the midst of life, we are face to face with death. Un April 2d, we lost, by the hand of death, our friend and classmate. VVylie Pope Hill. ASeldom is found, in a college boy, such devotion to work, such high ideals, as characterized him. His cheerfulness and generous unselfish- 57 .Hahn-54-.agif 1-'1 W.T.w.-..'.-,- . .. ---'- --- ---L-H rs:---M -f--A --a4-- V- W - '- A -J-AM - - ............. ..-. -1- .41.:r.:f..... , .. ..,. .- .,,... , ,Ap . . .2f .:Ii.i',Lg,:L-,V ,mv WE I l ness made him deservedly popular, no-t only with his own classmates, but also with the entire school, and, in his death, his Class has suffered an irreparable loss. ' Baseball will occupy our attention until june. After that, the deluge,- otherwise, final examinations. Wfhen we have, at last, successfully undergone the torture of this relic of the Inquisition, we shall be, SENIORS. Wie have behind us three long years of patient endeavor, before us remains but one more year. Surely, in View of the Well-deserved success which has attended our past efforts, it requires no prophet to predict our future. Let us guard zealously the high reputation which our past has won us, let us never be disheartened by failure, but remember our motto, We conquer all things in time, and the highest boast we can ever make will be, I was a member of the Class of 19o2.

History of Class of 1903. , A E of the Sophomore Class have been together nearly two years, have learned to know and to love one another, have gone through the trials of H1'Z1'El1O'OClH together and have bridged the chasm which V V separates the rat from the old boy.', So, it is but natural that we should begin to take an interest in our Class and to look upon it with a feeling of love and respect. It is with this feeling of class spirit that I attempt to write its history. ' A On our arrival in September we were for a short time, almost at a loss to recognize ourselves in the new position, so different were they from those of last year. All was new to-us, instead of being obliged to look up to everybody, there was at least one class on which we could look down, and right well did we exercise the privilege. However we soon accustomed ourselves to our new positions and proceeded in the most approved and up-to-date fashion to initiate the rats into the mysteries of life at a military college. But all was not pleasure, for while greeting our old friends we missed the faces of many of our classmates. Among these were Bates, Cobbs, VV. H., Lamb, Noblin, Sykes, Urquhart, Wliitet, and VVillingham. But above all we were grieved to learn of the death of Hobbs, our class president in '99-oo. A truer friend or a nobler boy never lived. - Those who were so fortunate QPQ as to have attained the rank of Corp. were at once put to work drilling the rats, and a hard job it was! However this was soon over and the humdrum of military life commenced. At the first class meeting which was held in November, a number of new men presented themselves to be initiated, which was done according to the time- honored customs. Then came the election of officers. They were as follows: Dickerson, president, Chalkley, vice-presidentg Steele, secretary and treasurer, Wfalsh, sergeant-at-arms, and Wfilcox, historian. And good men they were! Then along with the swift rush of events came the organization of the football team on which we were represented by Steele and Abbott, to say nothing of those on the second team. The academic work of the term was now in full swing and we began to realize what college life really was, and the world of differ- ence between the Freshman and the Sophomore Classes. However the Class as a whole did remarkably well and deserved credit. The military department 'l now took on a boom and decided that a few more Corporals ' were needed and after careful consideration Jones, Stokely, u6 81 Steele, and Vaught were appointed to fill these positions. They were at first inclined to think a little too much of their N Corpf, and to prevent this the indispensable process of head-scrubbing was resorted to and worked like a charm. That lo-ng-looked-for day, the twenty-hrst o-f December finally arrived and we started for home amid hand-shakings which did our hearts good. It is needless to say that we all enjoyed our holida.ys to the utmost and returned on the fourth of January almost as homesick as any rat ever was. This so-on passed in the hurry of the p-reparation for H examhsf' which came all too soon for a great many of us and with disastrous effects. In spite o-f all this the Class made their usual good marks and had nothing to be ashamed of. However, we must not forget to mention those self-sacrificing men who so dutifully and bravely kept guard over the barracks during the long afternoons while their selfish companions amused themselves with tennis or football. To these men are due the thanks of the 'K military department and no do-ubt they will be fitly rewarded by it. A h The next event of importance was the promotion of VVilcoX, Pritchett, and Richmond to Corps, which occurred early in March. They were all deserving men and their promotion was no surprise. The baseball season opened in March and Walsh and VVare, both Sopho- mores were chosen to fill the position of catcher and shortstop on the first team. The class league teams were also organized and VVilcoX was elected manager of our team. In April, we met the Juniors and Freshmen and defeated both teams, incidentally paying the Juniors a little score which we owed them. The jovial, warm-hearted Ioe', Steele left us in April and it was with the greatest regret that we bade him good-bye. His office as secretary and treas- urer of the Class was filled by Wilcoix. Now, as the days roll on and spring appears we begin to think of Commence- ment and then-home. And may we part the best of friends a.ndmake the Class of '03 one no-ted for that spirit of love and fellowship which characterizes the best of classes! let us remember that in union there is strength U and always have the same friendship for each other, not only at the beloved old V. P. T., but throughout life! 82 l 1 MEMBERS CF THE CLASS OF NAME ARROTT, AXLVIS LEE . . A-ADAMS, HENRY CLARENCE . ALBIOND, SAUNDERS BLLANN . AXRCI-TER, RALPH IZARD . BALL, CHARLES LEE ....

HN the history of the Freshman Class of 'O4-and this is the largest ever qflqyy enrolled at the Yirginia Polytechnic Institute,-we will not fill up space A by discussing each man who has made himself conspicuous, illustrious, 1' or worthy of mention as so- many have attained this high standing, and but few will be placed on our list of distinguished. Nor will we press the horrors of a l7reshman's first night in barracks on the minds of those who have access to our College iXNNU,-XL, but will break the monotony with more pleasant scenes since the abolition of hazing. i A lireshmans first night, however, is not the most pleasant thing imaginable. So-on after what we were told was taps, we retired for the night, which was certainly welcomed by those of us who had experienced our first drill in trunk exercise -which consisted of a trunk, a rat at each end, and a well experi- enced guide. , The following morning, we rose at our leisure and, owing to the steady arrival of new students, old students, and trunks, things were seemingly in a great confusio-n. I Our time was easily taken up in the afo-resaid vocation until the afternoon. This was our time for matriculation and to meet our new friend with that unpronounceable name Taliaferro. This occupied the greater part of the afternoon, but later in the day we chanced to meet our less fortunate fellow- classman Mouse Reed, still inquiring for the President's hangout. f After a week or so of various excitements and experiences, we began to realize that our academic duties were not to be overlooked entirely and with a wise look we settled down with a determination against the inevitables. Attention will now be called to a brief review of the most promising of our Class. Here are Tom and Dan, having just arrived from the green fields of Yirginiaf' calling back to our memories the almost forgotten Siamese twins, and resembling each other in physiognomical effect so much as to make it utterly impossible to recognize Tom without the presence of his fraternal Pollux. I The next member of our august Class to discuss will be Rubie VVebb-so called to coincide with his beaming foretop, which reminds us of a blast furnace on a dark night-who on his arrival informed us of his intention of taking up an Cdzzrafiolzal course. In ev to look forward to as one who would in a few years bear the garland of olive ery Freshman Class for years past they have had some giant youth 96 leaves. This year we have the colossal Gunpowder, whose good nature, bass voice, and herculean appearance have won for him the admira.tion of his class- mates., Ballet dancers and chorus girls are seldom seen in this vicinity, but we have with us one who persists in introducing this spirit into our Class. Here we see coming K' Ryestrawf? as he has been dubbed, displaying his wonderful vocal talent, and winning for himself the worthy distinction of a primo-mono. Lastly, but not at all overshadowed by the preceding members mentioned, comes Pete Barrow, freshness personified, whose persistent familiarity necessitating the bayonet and Spartan spirit, have made liiiu popular. Drifting away from mentioning individuals, we will now take up the time intervening between our arrival and the intermediate examinations. Keeping up with our work, but watching eagerly each step in athletics, not because we were represented on the Varsity team, but with that na.tural college spirit that cries out for victory. One thing we can boast of with pride, is that our success was admirable in the line of rooting, and we can only sigh at the thought of not having more opportunities of exhibiting our powers on the side-lines. The Southern trip of our team was a great success, and gave us ample cause for rejoicing which terminated in a bon-fire, as soon, as the news of victory reached us. After this event nothing of special interest took place until the Christmas holidays. And when they came at last, the Class was indeed a happy one-atthe thought of being released from the restrictions of military duty, and the prestige of the upper-classmen for two weeks. VVhy sho-uld not we be happy? These few days of enjo-yment were soon past, and with this joyous reminiscence to buo-y us up until our more prolonged vacation, we returned with sad and homesick hearts to our respective quarters. At ourifirst assembly we found several familiar faces missing from our ranks, but their places were soon filled with new ones. With the perpetual gaze of the intermediate examinations staring us in the face, we had but little time to grieve over our lost comrades or welcome new ones. The examinations were soon upon us and past. Lindsay, Yost, Tiffany, and Purcell each attained the mark of distinction. The next thing of importance we might mention is the snow-battle between the New and Old Barracks H rats,', which was carried on in perfect good humor, and was, indeed, an enjoyable' affair to the participants as well as the spectators. The result was a decisive victory for the New Barracks, due solely to their large majority. No one in particular distinguished himself as a hero, and strange to say the sick squad U was not reinforced on account of it. . Military this year has been a glorious success. Never has there been seen among the Freshman Class so many who would make even Apollo- envious to behold them, each striving with eager aspiration fo-r military honors. Une. especially, we might mention, Grandpa H Cordley, who was among the first to submit his application for a 'K Corp. H1 97 As the session is now drawing to a close we have but little thought for any- thing, except our hnal examinations, and after that our prospective trip to Buffalo. :Xnd as our collegiate year is closing it will necessitate, also the closing of the history of the Class of 'o.t. This year has been to each of us, as we believe, a prosperous one. And now with a genial hand-clasp and good wishes, we will bid each other a long farewell, hoping next year we inay all ineet again, not as lfreshinen, but to bear the honors of a Sophomore, and so on, from year to year, until we have reaped the reward of our labors, and are dismissed from our ahna mater with its invaluable riches.

'M I-IE October sun was shinino' brivhtl ' while a light wind sent ti - .5 as yi as 6 LCC gf' J and yellow leaves in a flurry down the path before me, as I sauntered ' down to the remains of what had been the Quarteri' in Ante- bellum days on the Ellerslien homestead. I always went dgwn for a chat with old 'K Uncle Charles some time during the day, Charles was one of the old family servants who, since he had become Old, and could do little work, had returned to -the old home where he had known gaiety and prosperity in his youth, as so manly of the old negroes through our South-landl' do. As he expressed it Mistiss, now Mars was dead, had claim on him for to help her keep up things on the 'state.'3 So Charles lived at the Quarter,', and did light tasks, and tried to see to his Mistissis H interests on the farm, and woe be unto the person, black or white, whom Charles thought trying to take advantage of her. If white, Charles abused them roundly, ending up with the height of calumny in a negro's opinion, that they wan't nothin' 't all but poo' white trash ,U if colored, they undoubtedly descended from free niggers, an' didn't have no raisin'.'i The old man was never tired of discoursing upon the former grandeur, riches, beauty and goodness of 'K our familyf' as he called his former owners. My father often laughingly said that old Charles exaggerated, and where his people were concerned, multiplied by ten. Be this as it may, according to his light,-no truer, more loving heart ever beat in a dark breast than old Charles's for his people. I was on a visit to my aunt, who owned the old homestead. I always came up in the fall for a week's hunt and rest from law books, red tape, and a stuffy office. I found the old man this evening sitting at the door, with an immense pair of steel spectacles across his nose. Un his knees rested a small brass-bound box, open, in which he was carefully arranging, and examining several Jacka es. I I-lge looked up as the dogs bounded forward and my shadow fell across the door, a smile on his wrinkled dark face, a kindly light in his dim old eyes, as he said: Come in Mars Torm! I's jes a wondering if you was gwine forgit old Charles dis evenin', I was jes a lookin' over these ole rullocks, an' keepsakes an' seein' dat ain't none of dem been misplaced, nor nothini. There was some picturs, an' things whar I promised to show you, so I thought I 107 would get de box an' find 'em. But who dat I see up at de house? Mr. Wfash- ington Payne! Mr. XVashington nothin'! W'hat he doing comin' here? I-Ie ain't fitten to visit Mars Landon's chillun, if he do ride a iine horse, an' make him prance and caper, an' war yeller kid globes, an' part his har' in de middle, and fume hissef up with c'lone, I knowd his daddy, an' his grandaddy, too, an' none ob dem thought to presume to visit at ole Marsters. Not but what Marster wan't polite an' gentlemanfied to all, de lowest, as well as de highestg he couldn't been nothin' 't all else. Real 'quality' is born so, you know, Ma.rs Torm. Seems to me, said old Charles with a sniff, Mr. Payne is tryin' to come round sparkin' Miss Elsie. I saw him castin' his eye at her mighty peart Odder day at church, comin' up dar an' helpin' Mistiss, an' Miss Elsie out ob de kerrige. I was jes great mind to he'p 'em out myse'f, if I ha.d er had anybody to hold my horses, I would a done it. If he has been to college, an' brought home a whole lot ob medals, an' things, I 'spec' he bought 'em, cause I know you can buy medals, for I see lots ob medals, an' lockets an, things in Richmond at all de stores for sale. , H NVell! Uncle Charles, I said, 'K People have different opinions in regard to Mr. Payne, they all seem to like him. Your word, though, will have some weight with Cousin Elsie. I had my private reasons for wishing Uncle Charles to speak to Elsie on the subject of Mr. Payne, not that there was anything wrong with the fellow, but then I did not like the idea of his being in love with her. To me, my Cousin Elsie had always appeared the daintiest, fairest of human beings, ever since my childhood days, when on long visits at Ellerslie, I had helped her over fences, and ditches on our wild rambles through the woods. Even in that far-off time, I had saved my largest hickory nuts, and sweetest, reddest apples fo-r her, and gone through briars, and mud to get the prettiest wild flowers, to make wreaths for her sunny head. It now seemed to me, she showed this Payne fellow some favor, did she really like him, or was there a grain of the coquette in Elsie's composition? ' Ah! if a lawyer's profession were not such an up-hill road! What right had a brieiiess lawyer to ask the girl he loved to risk starvation with him, even though her present lot was not a bright, or fortunate one? I turned from my own thoughts and, seating myself in the cabin door, held out my hand for the daguerreotype Uncle Charles was holding in his hand. K' Now dis, said old Charles, was Miss Pollie, when she was jes in her prime Qand he carefully polished the glass with an old tattered silk bandanna, with much pride on the picturej. I' Lord! but she was pretty, an' dat proud! But gentle, an, kind to us darkies, bless her sweet heartf' Thus the old man went on, as he looked at the pictured face, then handed it to me. The face was indeed beautiful, the sweet solemn eyes seemed to gaze at me with a sad pathetic light in their blue depths, the beautiful hair was piled looking IO8 7 high above the white forehead in the fashion of long ago. There was rather a haughty curve in tl1e carriage of the head, and in the square little chin, which tradition said we inherited from our Scotch ance.stors, but the mouth had a sad little droop, like a grieved chield. Yes! I could see the likeness to several members of our family. I inherited the square chin,--and the Scotch will, too, I think, and yes, those were Elsie's eyes, just as I ha.d seen them when she felt hurt, or discouraged, and the sad little droop of the mouth was hers, also. As I did not speak Uncle Charles grew restless. Yes, sir! he broke in, a fine, gran' lady, in her day,-the belle, an' beauty, ob Caroline County. I.ord! Mars Torm, she could a had her pick o-b de Hnest young gentermens of de State, much less de county. Bless Gord! de times I done seen, when I was a boy, an' use to go along wid de kerrige, as footman. Yes, Mars Torm! everybody whar' was quality had footmen, an' body-servants, even if dey did choose to drive de'selves sometimes. , I Many an' many a time is I done see de young gentermens a scheming, an' a tryin' to see which could get to de kerrige door first, for to help Miss Pollie out, an' she would look out in dat little proud way of hern,-as if she say to herself ' I ain't gwine have none of you, but I 'll be kind to you, an' I ain't gwine to tell you I won't, den she jes step lightly down de steps, in her little satin shoes and she put jes de tips of her fingers on one genterman's arm, for to support her down you know, den she smile at a.nother, she han' her prayer-book to de neX'g den, dar! she done please 'em all, an' each genterman think he 's de one she like bes', an' he almos' willin' to chop de res' ob dem in two, for daring to look at her. Dem was gran' days Mars Torm! not like dese poo' times when a nigger has to work early an' late, an' den don't hab nothin' 't all when de mont come to de end,-done eat it all up, pan' owe de store man somethin' besides. I 's gettin' moughty tired ob it myself! I voted for gold, when Mr. President McKinley was 'lected, but he ain't done 'membered me, an' sent me none, yet. As I was a tellin' of you though, Mars Torm, Miss Pollie, she jes skim aroun' like a swallow, an' don't take none of dem, what seemed almos' dying for her, but when Mars Paul come along, I knowed from de start she done foun' her match. I-Ie was a kind ob cousin you know, an' went to college with her brother, Mars VV'illiam, whar was your an' Miss Elsie's grandpa. He come home wid Mars NVilliam, when dey got through college, an' stayed all summer here at ole Marsters. His father lived way up in New York State, or somewhar up dar. VVell! who could a blamed Miss Pollie for he certainly was one fine, handsome, gran', genterman. I was in de hall helpin' to carry de trunks an' things to dey rooms, an' I saw Miss Pollie as she came down de stair in white, lookin' like a beautiful angel, only she didn't hab no yviugs' I saw Mars Paul stop an' star' an sorter kitch' his bref when he see her. She han' out her hands to him in de mos' Oraciouses way, an say whar' she done D heard much ob him through her brother's letters an' feel like she already know 109 ..,......, him. Mars Paul wan't no ways behind her in graciousness an' 'portment, neither: his line bow, as he scrape back his foot an' took her han' an' kissed it, 'minded me ob de pictures ole Miss showed us of Sunday evenings in de Bible, whar liing Solomon was a bein' introduced to the Queen ob Sheby. Arter dat, what times dar was, sech ridin' an' going to dinners, ani company a comin' all de time, dar wan't no res' day nor night. Dar was lots ob young folks staying at Marster's all dat summer. I certainly did enjoy myself, too, 'cause I went everywhar de kerrige went, an' we darkies had line times in de kitchen, as well as de white folks in de house. Mars Vtfilliam was gwine get married that fall, he an' Miss Mary Conway done been promised to one another almost since dey was chilluns. My sister Hannah wasp-Miss I'ollie's maid, an' she say she hearn Mars Paul wanted Miss Pollie to marry him at de same time, but she put him off, an' fool along, an' wouldn't promise. Qne day she would seem gentle as a lamb, an' dat kind she would go anywhar Mars lf'aul axed her to, an' sing, an' play for him on de pianny, an lord! he would hang over her an' look at her like he worship de very groun' whar she walked on, but nex' day, perhaps, she wouldn't take no notice ob him whatever. She would talk to all de other gentermans, an, 'tend not to see him, when he would come an' stan' close to her an' jine in de conversation. Den he 'd look jes as sad, an' serious as if he was seeking 'ligion, an' he would go off an' sit by hisse'f on de portico in de moonlight, an' smoke, an, think ober it. Arter a long time Miss Pollie she seemed to grow restless, an' presently she would slip out ob de parlor an' go out dar, lookin' like a little white ghost,-in her white frock. She would go up so'ft like to Mars Paul, an' sit down, on de seat at his side, an' slip her little han' in hisn. Den, dar! he was in heaven aginf' llut Uncle Charles, said I laughing, and with the strong suspicion that the old man was drawing upon his imagination, 'S how did you always happen to be present and see so much? I' The old man drew himself up with much dignity, as' he looked at me steadily, saying: Hy, Mars Torm, I was one ob de house boys, whose busi-I ness 't was, always to be ,bout de house, doin' of different things,-den if anybody needed anything, den I was right dar on han' to get it for 'em, im- mediate likeg den Hannah, my sister, she tell me a lot, an' so did 'Tildy, Miss Mary Conway's maid. You know I married 'Tildy arter Mars William done married Miss Mary an' brought her home, an' settled down. Well! dat summer as I was tellin' of you, Mars Paul would seem in heaven when Miss Pollie loved him, an' almos, in de other place when she didn't. It seem like Miss Pollie couldn't zaekly make up her mindg she love Mars Paul, still she couldn't quit her foolin'. 'Bout dis time, Miss Mandy Reid an' her brother, Mars 'Gustus, come to visit at Marsterls. Den de mischief commenced, from what we servants saw an' hear. It seems Miss Mandy knowed Mars Paul in New Yorkg we darkies always did believe she want him for herse f. Hannah say she ain't done like her nohow, 'cause she so stuck up, an' proud, wouldn't return IIO we all's howdy by so much as a nod of her haid. VVhen we come in de house of a mornin' Marster always made us tell all de white folks howdy. Law! our young Mistisses an' Marsters wan't raised dat a way, dey would a been 'shamed ob deselves to let a poo' nigger been more politer den dey was. ' Arter dat, I notice when Mars Paul would come out on de porch to come mune wid hese'f, Miss Mandy she would come a tippin' out,,an' sich a laughin' an' a carryin' on' a tappin' ob him wid her fan an' a whisperin' to him. 'Iildy say one night Miss Mandy ax her to bring her shawl out dar to her, an' she hears her, wid her own two ears, a tellin' Mars Paul Miss Pollie was de wos' flirt she knowed, an' if she was in his place she jes wouldn't stan' it, an' would show her he wouldn't put up wid it. Den she tell him, Miss Pollie an' her brother 'Gustus been sweethearts all dey lives. 'Tildy say Miss Mandy so busy talkin' dat she ain't done see her standin' dar for some time an' dat was how she come to hear it. 'Tildy say ever since dat time, when you see a 'oman wid black har', an pale silver colored, shiny eyes, dey is alwa.ys sly an' mean, an' you can't trus' 'em to tell de trufe no how. I don't know nothin' 't all 'bout eyes an' har', but I b'lieve Miss Mandy did say lots what wan't down in de Bible. Miss Polly was as proud as proud could be for all her lovin' ways. Hannah said often Miss Mandy would come in Miss Pollie's room of a night an' talk, an' she would always have somethin' to say 'bout Mars Paul, how he use to 'spark ' her in New York, but dat she never b'lieved him, 'cause every- body knew he made a boast of how all de ladies followed him up. Hannah said Miss Pollie's eyes fair flashed, but she didn't say nothin' 't all, but laugh. an' shake back her curls, but Hannah say she knew de black sparkle in Miss Pollie's eyes meant mischief. - Une night Miss Mandy show Miss Pollie a red rose, what she said Mars Paul give her wid de meanin' an' she irew it down on Miss Pollie's dressin'-table, an' made out she forgot, an' let' it dar. Hannah say she picked up de ole withered thing, an' was gwine carry it out wid de trash, but Miss Pollie took it 'way from her, an say she want dat rose, an' she stuck it in de side of her lookin'-glass, whar every time she look at herse'f she-would see it. Mars Paul, he see sights arter dat. Miss Pollie never hab no time to talk to him nohow, she always hab Mars 'Gustus Reid, or some other genter- man wid her, she was always playin', an' singin' to 'em, or walkin' or ridin' wid 'em. Mars Paul, he get gloomier, an' gloomier, an' take long walks by hese'f, an' set up late in de billiard room, playin' billiards an' cayrds arter de ladies done gone to de rooms for de night. - Qne night as I went in to ca.rry de ice an' mint, I see Mars 'Gustus Reid countin' ober a lot ob gold, an' he sey jes as I han' him his glass, ' Wfell, Paul, I 've been in luck for the last night or two, but your turn will- come to-morrow night, an' you can have your revenge.' Den de las' sad time came, Mars Torm. 'Bout a week arter dat, de club ob young gentermens gib a supper, a 'banket-' dey call it. 'T was at de Ches- III X -1-is-.. , g' terheld Inn whar de racecourse was, an' dat day, before de banket, dar was races dar also. I went to help wid de horses. Mars Williaiii had two horses on de track and beauties dey was! Une ob dem won de silver cup, an' de other ,ought to 'a' had a prize, but she got chea.ted out o-b it Dat night arter de H 1 1 I . . - . J 6 ne supper, dai was gaming ob all kinds. Mars Paul, Mars Gustus Reid an' two other gentermens, sat down at a table for to play cayrds. Most ob de gentermans had been drinkin' toasts, an' I could see dey wan't zackly deyselves, from de way dey was laughin' an' bettin'. I come in de room wid de boy to help put wood on de fire, an' I jes staid, standin' back in de corner outen every- body's way. It look like luck done change dat night, for Mars Paul won straight through, an' every time dey would bet higher, an' higher, 'til las' dar was quite a stack ob gold in front ob Mars Paul. Den I see Mars 'Gustus Reid was gettin' mad an' quarrelsome. Dey dealt de cayrds again, an' Mars 'Gustus bet--way up ycmder! Den Mars Paul, he go up 'above him, den all ob 'em say dey call him, an' he won again. Dat seem more den Mars 'Gustus could stan' J an' he look at Mars Paul wid de curisomest smile on his face I ever see wid his 7 eyes sorter drawn together, an' he say, ' You are in luck to-night Paul, it is a pity you are not so lucky in love.' At de same time he laugh low like, to hisse'f, velvet weskit, an' show somethin' on the It looked like a locket and I heard an' I saw him unbutton a button. on his 'end ob his watch-chain, tucked inside. arterward it was a locket whar Mars Paul l cone give Miss Pollie wid his picture inside. V H I saw Mars Paul's face go as dark as a thunder cloud, an' he say a whole crowd o-b words, whar I can't repeat, being as I am a church member. I-Ie jes , dat table, an' jerk Mars stood up dar wid his eyes fair blazin an' rech ober I 'Gustus by his collar almos' clean 'cross de table, an' he say, ' You contemptible scoundrel, an' cheatin' puppy! ' VVid dat, he gib him one soundin' slap on de I I 7 -' J ef cheek, an another on de iight, fore Mars 'Gustus hardly had time to catch l ' b f ' ' ' ns re , den de other gentermen jump up an part 'em Mars vV1ll13.1T1, he seemed so distressed, he took Mars Paul in another room. Arter a long time I heard a lot ob de gentermens talkinfin de hall, den Mars Williams call me, an' sent me home for his pistols My heart went d . ' f own in de bottom of my boots when I heard dat order. I went an' brought 'em, I couldn't find out nothin' 'tall else an' M . , ars Williain told me for to stay in de kitchen till he called me I sle at A' l . . 1 an cozed some, though I certainly was bothered in my mind. At last, soon arter sunrise, Mars Williaiii come in lookin' white ' l' . , I f an cis- tressed almos' to death, an' say. ' Charles come on! ' My heart fair jumped in my mouth, Mars Torm, for I knew something dreadful done happen'. I-Ie took me through a little strip of woods at de back o-b de house, an' dar lyin' white an' bleedin' on de groun', wid his eyes Qshut, was Mars Paul. De doctor was bendin' ober him, but he shook his haid as Mars VVilliam came up. De kerrige rom 1 - t ' 6 ome was dai, an we all lifted Mars Paul into it, an' propped him up II2 wid pillows. Mars Wfilliam an' de doctor got in an' we drove off home, as fas' as de horses could take us. It was a sad day for us all, catge we every one of us loved Mars Paul, an' de doctor say he co-uld not live through the day. All de fine company lef, soon as dey heard de bad news, Miss Mandy Reid, an' de rest. Hannah told me when Mars NVilliam came up to Miss Pollieis room for to tell her what done happen, she was dressed, an' standin by de window, an, when she saw him she knowed somethin, dreadful done happen, by his face. She jes cover her face wid her two hanis, and say 'Vifhat is it?

Miss Pollie never fainted, nor screamed, nor nothini, as some folks would a doneg no, dar was too much high steppin, blood in her for dat, she jes went quietly down de stairs wid Mars Vifilliam to Mars Paul, an' she never lefl him til dey took her away nex' mornin' 'bout day, after he was dead. He died wid his haid on her shoulder, an' her arm lroun' him, his las, words was to tell her not to grieve, they had done splained all, Miss Pollie had done loss her locket, an' Mars 'Gustus foun' it, an' tried to use it for his own mean schemes in partin' of fem, cause he want Miss Pollie for hisse'f. I saw all dat happen dat las' day ob Mars Paul's life, 'cause dey needed me 'bout de room to run on errands. Well, Mars Torm, dar wanlt much more den. Miss Pollie had brain fever, an' dey thought she would never get ober it, but she did. Dat high steppinl blood showed itself hard to beat, but she never was de same gay, lively young thing she was before tho-ugh. An, although she still had lots ob beaux, she never cared nothin' 'tall for any ob 'em, an' as you know, never married. f'An' dis,,' said Uncle ,Charles, Is a picture of Mars Paulf, I took the small oval he held in the palm of his hand and could plainly see it had formerly been in a locket. There could still be traced the handsome, proud face with magnetic dark eyes. It seemed Hannah, my Aunt Ijollie's maid, had begged the two old pictures at her beloved mistress's death, and old Charles was now keeping them, for Hannahwas dead, as treasures, connected with the happy days of his youth. 4' So you see Mars Tormf' said the old man, as he carefully rewrapped the pictures, and stowed them away in his box, what jealousy, mischief, cayrds an' wine, can bring young an, happy things to. No matter how grand, an' proud, an' beautiful, the trouble is sure to come to all some day. 1 x x zs iii :- u8 II3 I sat so long XV1tl'l old Cl'l3.1lCS, that the sun had long srnce gone down, and as I arose to return to the house, I saw Mr VVash1ngton Payne r1de down the road on h1s f161y black horse As I saw lllfll a new determ1nat1on seemed to come to me and hold me, wh1eh was, to go to the house and ask Els1e to walt for me unt1l I was no longer a buelless lawyer I lllllllli It was a Sllllllillllly between her and the old tune prcture wh1ch dec1ded me to I'1Sli lt for I had ltnown her to shp he1 l1ttle hand 111 mme, 111 the same httle confichng sp111t hke way that old Challes had descr1bed after she had spent a whole evemng 1g110111'1g my presence, and ente1'ta1n1n0f M1 Wash IHOIOH Payne IAOULIIN ST LECER , . c ' . , A 1 1 ' 1 , 4 ' , , rc ,' JJ 1 V 1 . - 1 - 1 ' . -' - . .

U i HE Yahoo-s were celebrating their birthday with feasting, drink- yy V, ing, and 1' high jinks gene-rally. H VVe miss ' Beau Jack' more f than ever on occasions like thisf, remarked Paul Davies to his INET i next neighbor, a year ago, you know, he was toastmaster, and kept the table in an uproar with his songs, his wit, and the efforts others made to keep up with him. I wonder what got hold of him to make such a prig of so fine a fellow in one short summerfi' 'KDO you mean 'Old Grind? ' queried Tom Dodson. I had almost forgot we ever called him ' Bea.u Jack' Vtfho gave him that name last year?', Bob Rainsford, I think it was. You remember what a country looking fellow Harston was when he first came, and how, in a few months, he got to be the dressiest and the moist popular boy in our class. By Christmas, he was putting in his best licks on the calico ticket, and playing the swell in several directions. Bob called him ' Beau Jack, at one of our meetings, and the name stuck to him. The boys donit like him this year, and most of them call him ' Qld Grind' He is got to be unsocial and stingy, the last two things I ,cl have expected from John Harstonf' 'K The professo-rs are always quoting him as an example of what hard work may do, put in Lawrence Black from across the ta.ble. They say he entered his classes this year handicapped by absolute idleness last, yet he has caught up, and now leads 'em all. I am tired of hearing him lauded by the old Dons as ' the most conscientious student in collegef -the quoted phrase spoken in a senten- tious drawl, supposed to be mimicry of the professorls tones-'I especially when I think of wha.t a jolly good fellow was spoiled when he set out to make a model of himselffi Has no one an idea of what caused so queer a change in him? from Toni Dodson. I No one in college, I am sure, replied ll, aul Davies, he 's as tight as a clam since he turned prig, and keeps so close to his books that nobody gets a word with him. He has even given up footballf' with a feeling sigh, K' and he promised to make the boldest center rush on our team. It is a pity to see a line fellow go to pieces like that. The old Dons call it a noble reformation, sneered Black. Uh, of course, added Iiitzwarren Jones, but what do they know about the make-up of a fine fellow? Their one idea of a man is a patent elastic, hold- D 115 j ff 'i A' fl 'i'f?5 ' fast memory, and an unlimited power to be awed by their superior wisdom and t ff l like a incushion with rules theories and facts, goodness! As if being s u ec P n ' i , 1 together with the habit o-f humble adoration, were all that s needed to fit a fellow for life. i P What 's yo-ur idea, Jones, of the needful to fit a fellow for life. called out McCoy, who had caught a part o-f Jones's remark from the lower end of the table. H Experiencef' responded Jones promptly producing an idea to meet this unexpected demand, but rather hoping he would not be probed very deeply for reasons to back his position. A man needs experience of men, of life, o-f dissipation even, to fit him fo-r life. Not theories, but experience, furnish the true education. Especially of women, eh jones? laughed, McCoy. But you all up there are talking of ' Qld Grind '-he used to be Fitz's rival with the calico, you know, men-which reminds me of something he said the o-ther day. I hap-- pened to run up on I-Iarston when he was out for one of those lonely con- stitutionals of his, and though he walks equal to a horse, I managed to keep up with him, for a quarter of a mile, and between pants to ask him what in the devil's name he kept himself so close for. I-Ie answered in a way that I thought ridiculously priggish for Harston. Said he had put himself in training for life instead of for football, having discovered that the welfare and the happiness of others beside himself depended on his being fit when the time came. And since the struggle would be longer and harder than a football contest, he had found it necessary to 'train ' pretty severely, which left him noi time for fun. Did you ever hear a.nything to beat that? From 'Beau .Iack,' too. Jehosaphat, Beelzebub, Meshech, and Abednegof' ejaculated Black, Harston turned preacher! H I-Ie said it so serio-usly he knocked the stiffening out of me, and I didnit have presence of mind enough left to laugh at him even. I 've wished since- I had asked him so-me questions, and gotten a more definite idea of his meaning. Something interesting must have ha.ppened to turn Jack I-Iarston into a ' grind., . ' H Let 's go ask him, suggested To-m Dodson.. H It ,ll be a larklto make him confess, seconded McCoy, so the thirteen . Yahoos trooped across the campus to the dormitory, and unceremoniously invaded HHTSIO-DiS room. The found him in bed, having just put out his light, and disposed himself for slumber. if Your absence made us an odd number, Harstonf' explained Paul Ilayies, and we missed you. We ,ve come to wind up even, and avoid bad uc c. And to make you tell us what is got the matter yyith yguyv Said Black. 116 It 's a shame, jack, for you to desert us the way you ,ve donef, added jones, and we mean to know your reason. S' Have seats, gentlemen, requested Harston, in his most genial voice, as he sat up in bed. NI am sorry to receive you so unceremoniously. May I trouble one of you to make a light? The moon 'll do, said Davies, springing the shade- to the top of the window, and admitting a bro-ad stream of radiant moonlight to drown the dark- ness of the room. lfVith the soft translucent rays came spring's incense, the hope whispering breath of lilac and hyacinth, of narcissus and mock-orange, of cherry and pear blossoms, while through the night's fragrant stillness sounded a single sleepy bird's trill. Some warbler had been awakened, doubt- less, by the tread of the youths across the campus and had mistaken the moon's clear shining for the coming of the dawn.. He presently discovered his mistake. however, and suddenly ceased his untimely carolling. Meanwhile the Yahoos had disposed themselves on chairs, table, trunk, and the left-overs now perched on the footboard of the bed. So you demand, comrades, that I give a reason for thve amazing change in my conduct since last year? looking pleasantly from one Hushed face to another. Physically, they were without doubt a fine group. There was not a dwarhsh, abno-rmal, nor really ugly youth among them, and 'not one whose face failed to indicate average power of apprehension, and strong, manly traits of character. Yet several -pairs of eyes glittered with unnatural excitement, and more than o-ne youthful cheek seemed to be dyed to a deeper hue than perfect health required, though no more searching light than the lenient moon afforded shone down upon them. 'K Yes, we think you owe us an expla.nation,', Davies responded. Perhaps I do. At a.ny rate I'm willing to make one to the ' Yahoosf if they think I've meant to go back on them, and John smiled pleasantly. , You all remember what an unsophisticated country boy I was two years ago, and some of you may have heard that I am the eldest son of a widow. But none of you ever suspected, I suppose, how poor I am. VVe have a well improved little farm, and my mother is a good manager, but even with the best management one small farm no more than provides necessa.ry comforts for a family of six. Nevertheless, my mother determined that I should have the education I wanted, and made her plans to send me to college so carefully that I did not more than half realize what it would cost her. I knew that I would have to be economical, though, and felt perfectly satisfied to start to college with little more money than would be necessary to defray my actual expenses 37 for the first term. 'Don't stint yourself, sonf my mother said, in bidding me good-bye. 'I know you ,ll be careful of expense, I'm so-rry it is necessary. But I don't want you to be cramped in your work, nor mortified in your relations with your fellow students. So if you need more money, let me know, and I'll manage to get it for you.' ' 117 -- X.--.u.,q1:L..4,.,, , , .--...Q :A ' ', N , -N. . Q Wfell, it didn't take me long after getting here to realize that my clothes didn't fit me, and that considerable pocket money was needed to enable a man to cut a figure in college. I'm the sort that likes to ke-ep up with the proces-- sion, as you all know, and my resolution didn't serve lo-ng to keep me from things that were foo-lish in my case. First I got in with a football team, and found that I could soon learn to play a good game. But it meant expense and time from my work. I hesitated, but succumbed finally to the temptation. joined the team, and trained hard. 'K Now men, I want to be fully understood. Football in my opinion is perfectly legitimate sport, and, more, advantageous diversion for those who can afford it. It was wrong for me, because of my circumstances. You see I had not then conceived the truth which now seems so clear to me-that a great many things which are not wrong pw' ste become dishonorable, even cowardly, under special conditions. A man doesn't know, it seems to me, the first prin- ciples of ho-no-r until he has learned to determ.ine his own code of morals with strict regard to perso-nal circumstances and limitations, and withoutiheed to the code proper for his companio-ns. I say this to make clear the fact that I have no remote intention of condemning in others those things I have found to be wrong for John I-Iarston. - 4' To go back to my narrative. Presently I was thinking more of football than of my classes, and when the team went to- R. for the Thanksgiving game I went along. Wfe were feted hospitably, and I found a new suit necessary. One of the young ladies We met was a beauty, and when she told me she was coming here to make one of our ladies' a visit in the spring, I foresaw my danger. Christmas brought a generous gift of pocket money. from my mother. It barely paid my debts. During january I worked better. VVith spring came baseball season again and later the pretty girl fro-m R. For a while I struggled reso-lutely, first against the one and then, against the other temptation, but as before they were too stro-ng fo-r me. My ba.seball gear and my best suit came out from the bottom of my trunk, and my books were piled on the top shelf and forgotten. A supply of clo-thes of la.test cut and pattern were ordered on credit. I spent mytime in training or paying court to my beauty. I got to be called 'Beau Iack,' and was more and more popular with the boys. The professors, however, soon began to warn me, and I got several letters from my mother, in which a vague note of uneasiness struggled with the lo-ve and COHICICICTICC in me she still held on to with loyal courage. The letters would trouble me for a few hours each time, but I 1na.naged to soothe my co-nscience with rapt gazing into the prettiest pair of blue eyes in the world. I wrote for more pocket money, acknowledging that I had been a little extravagant, but promising to do better. Still I said no-thing of certain unpaid bills. My mother's answer would ha.ve been a sufficient rebuke and warning had I been other than the conceited and selhsh cad I was. She sent me the money, declared loyally she knew I was spending only what was neces- II8 sary, and said it grieved her and ga.ve her sleepless nights to know that her dear laddie had to deny himself so severely, and could not have the advantages of other young men of his age. I wrote back a hypocritical letter+a downright lying letter I now see it was-to my dear mother, then proceeded to invest most of the money in flowers and I-Iuyler's bonbons for Blue-eyes, who accepted 'them with charming non- chalance. I don't think I could have done it, though, could I have guessed then what that money stood for. 'if Approaching Commencement brought further demands for money. I wrote for it, and got the sum I named. Part of it also was squandered in flowery and other tributes to my fair enslaver, the rest in contributions to Commencement festivities. Meantime my debts grew, and I failed on one exam. after another. By this time I could think of nothing but Blue-eyes, and was too reckless to care for consequences. I thought those blue eyes, smiled encouragement upon me, and I was as one drunk with excitement and happi- ness during Commencement week when I had a daily or twice daily engage- ment with her. . My mind was made up to tell homv passionately I loved her on the last evening, and beg that she would wait for me to make myself worthy of her. But I found no chance for a wo-rd, and so sat up the rest of the night phrasing and rephrasing expressions of my devotion in a letter to be handed her at parting. As I slipped it into her hand I begged, in a tremulous whisper, that she would send me a prompt a.nswer, since I should be miserable with anxiety till it came. ei, .i, 4, -5. ew. 4, ay. ei, 4, eg, I, .g, .W .it 4. ,P ,h ,P ,,e qt ,D .At qt ,, Mother looked questioningly into my face after the first wa.rm hug, and one of my little sisters said: ' Oh john, how handsome you 've grown to be- but you donlt seem to be glad to be home againf ' How can you say such things, Mabel?

Wfait till he 's had a good sleep in his own bed.' For supper there were the dishes I liked best, and my bed was sweet with the bags of dried rose leaves mother had sewed to the linen. Next morning I tried to be natural and light-hearted, but made a dismal failure. I was eagerly anxious for an answer to my letter, and troubled by the consciousness that I must tell mother about my debts. She watched me furtively, and now and then Ivsurprised an expression of yearning anxiety on her face. But her manner and tones were cheerful, and to my wants she was watchfully and affectionately attentive. After breakfast, Nell, my older sister, followed me to the front porch, where I sat in listless dejection. Nell was always blunt, never careful, like mother, to spare a fellow's feelings. 1:9 , W. ... ,,. . . af.- ,..-. , .W -.- ...-..-.-ni---1-1? -..... . .

Mother and Mabel haven't uttered a complaint, but Edmund, I-Ienry, and I have fussed and fussed, making it harder than ever for poor motherf My debts rose up before my mind, bulky and portentous. I would have liked to have begged the best man on our tea.m to give me the punishment I knew I deserved. I longed to confess to mother, but I couldn't make up my mind to tell her what a rascal I was. I felt it would about break her heart to find me out. All day I sulked in more and more abject self-disgust. The hope of a favorable letter from fair Blue-eyes was the onestar in my night of gloom. At last the letter came, after my third trip to the post-office. I rode home with it unopened in my pocket, and locked myself in my own room before I dared read it. If I ' Q . . . 1 .

Forgive me, Jack, and if nothing else will suffice, then forget as speedily as possible. ' Your sincere friendj Supper was refused, nor could I face my mother before the next morning. Then I braced myself for the ordeal, and we had a long full talk. I confessed everything, and even showed mother the letter. I always knew, boys, that I had a good mother, but I never realized till then what real true mother-love means to a fellow. It was all made so easy for me-the dreaded confession-that it was a downright relief to talk it all out to her, and she smoothed over my worst fa.ults, my most selfish actions, with a loving eagerness to put the best possible interpre- tation on them. My self-respect budded again in that hour, and I went forth from that sacred interview another man. Une thing she said I am moved to tell you. It was this : ' Nothing worth having, son, comes to us save by strenuous effort and reso- lute self-sacrifice. We must learn to face even failure, even the consciousness of our own weaknesses, and demerits, with stern resolve to conquer them. be Wfe must persist faithfully in following the hard path of duty, resisting resolutely the allur- ing ways that bcckon to right and left of us.

And high in each breast swelled noble impulses and inspiring resolves. Yet the human soul is as unstable as Water. And its noblest resolutions become as walls of mortar before the fierce onslaught of life's temptations. He who resolves must struggle, he who would live up to his aspirations must fight bravely, and, though he fall, still rise and Hght again, must toil unceasingly, strive on with uncliminishecl courage. W. VV. C. , 5 Z ,,, I22 Held by the Indians. True Story of a, Vl1'g'lDi2I,L2,llj'. X ONG ago, when Virginia held only a handful of white men, when her stately forests spread over miles and miles of land, where to-day acres QS' of yellow wheat wave, and the lusty corn ripens on a thousand hillsg 114 where, now, peaceand plenty spread their beneficent wings over the fair earth, and men are born, grow old, and die upon the land that gave their fathers birth, in that far-off time when life was a strenuous burden, when the cry of the orphan and the widow made living a daily tragedy, in the midst of its most homely aspect-in these old days, there dwelt upon the spark- ling waters of New River, a family by the name of Pauley. john Pauley was a fine, sturdy young fellow, about twenty-seven years of age, his wife, a fair, delicate woman of twenty-three, whose slender build and ethereal beauty denoted but little physical power to battle with adversity-but a dauntless spirit dwelt! within the frail body, and looked forth from the steadfast eyes, and when day by day she saw her husband becoming more and more depressed, as he returned from prolitless labor bestowed upon worn-out land, hers was the voice to urge and strengthen the man to a fresh start, in a new and untried country. lt was six o'clock on a. fair May day, i11 1782, when John Pauley, his wife, Janet, and little son, four years of age, looked their last upon the home that had sheltered so many generations of their name, and turned their faces west- ward. They attached themselves to a band of emigrants, gathered from the surrounding country, mo-st of whom were friends and acquaintances, and all, like the Pauleys, full of hope in the future awaiting them in the unknown land for which they were making. Their home was near the beautiful falls of the Kana- wha River, and their desire was to press forward until they reached the 'K green pastures and still waters H of Kentucky, where many of their friends had gone before, and from whom at long intervals came vague and startling rumors of the wealth of the new land in which they had made their home, and urgent appeals for others to follo-w. So, on this May morning upon which my story opens, over forty souls were journeying into a far country,'l their domestic stores piled in the wagons which they took with them. In these wagons the women and children spent the greater part of the time-sleeping in them at night, when the little party stopped to camp near by some bubbling spring-and during the day riding seated upon their modest Lares and Penates watching the varied country through which they passed, with many a yearning thought sent back to the deserted homes, and ah! how many earnest prayers for safety and guidance in the new and untried path before them. V I23 2 - -L 1.1. Qin -... L For ten days the travelers made fairly good time, meeting with no untoward accidents, and finding the country more and more entrancingly beautiful, as they pressed into the untrodden ways of the New World. Three weeks passed, and they felt that they were nearing their journey,s end. john Pa.uley's eyes began to lose the expression of strain.ed anxiety which had haunted them since they bade good- bye to the old home, and in its place there came an eager look of hope, which was reflected upon each face of the little party. It was drawing near the last o-f May, when, one night they camped in a fertile valley near the banks of the Big Sandy River. The supper was quickly cooked and eaten, and before nine o-'clock the entire camp had sunk into profound repose. No sound broke the intense still- ness but the myriad mystic voices of the night, and the solemn flow of the great river. Over ,the ill-starred little band no guardian angel stretched protect- ing wings that night-or, if the Holy Presence had been with them, it winged its flight at the approach of the powers of darkness. As the moon sank slowly to rest the quiet of the little camp was broken by the uneasy barking of dogs and the neighing of ho-rses. 'The animals' unerring instinct warned them of approaching danger, while the hapless travelers slept on, lulled into false security by their long immunity from trouble. Then, the silence was again broken by stealthy steps-ano-ther and another. John Pauley, ro-used from the deep sleep of extreme fatigue, rushed out from his sleeping place to meet unarmed the savage onslaught of a band o-f Indians. A few minutes more and his dead body lay stretched beside that of his faithful dog, and near that cold and bleeding body la.y the senseless form of his wife-senseless-but alas, not dead,-for before her there stretched long days of misery, far worse than death. Above her on his pallet bed in the wagon, her little son was sleeping. The dark lashes fell upon the chubby cheek, flushed with the hues of youth and health, serenely the little fellow rested-the horror of battle and bloodshed passed him by, and he still slept the sleep of innocence. ' Morning dawned upon the mournful company and only made more apparent the ravages of the Indians-of all that gallant band no man remained alive, scat- tered a.nd mutilated, their bleeding bo-dies lay unburied and uncared for, while the women and children were gathered together to be taken into slavery far worse than death. janet Pauley was roused from her merciful oblivion by a rude hand pulling at her sleeve, and muttered words in her ear--she started up with a frightened cry that was instantly checked by a menacing gesture from the Indian who woke her, and who seemed to be in command of his party. She was told by signs and actions to take up her child and resume the line of march. Mechanically the stricken woman obeyed g lifting her boy in her arms she attempted to keep up with the rest of the party-but the Indians themselves soon saw the impossibility o-f her continuing, therefore, she was mounted upon a strong young pony, the child seated before her. The savages seemed uneasy, and anxious to get on as soon as possible, hence they traveled as rapidly as the exhausted state o-f the captives per- . T24 mitted. Coming finally to a halt, they held a short consultation, after which they took to the bed of the stream, which at this point was very broad and shallow. Among the Indians was a man of villainous countenance, who seemed to persist- ently haunt Mrs. Pauley's neighborhood. She looked a.t him with a shuddering horror, of which he seemed quite aware for he met each shrinking glance with a black scowl. Instinct, stronger than reason, told janet Pauley that the face she so greatly loathed was that of her husband's murderer, and no effort on her part could stiiie the intense repulsion with which he filled her. Slowly and wearily they journeyed 'on,pausing at intervals for rest and refreshment,sleeping at night under the rude shelter raised for them by their dread captors-where the women lay through the long hours, looking upward to a heaven which seemed deaf to their cries-waiting, with dumb misery, for the unknown evil to come. Une day janetys tormentor made himself more than usually brutal, he would fall behind the little cavalcade, and sharply pricking the pony upon which she rode, with her child, the animal would throw them violently to the ground, at which all the Indians would break into rude shouts of laughter and derision. janet remounted each time, with dogged persistence-nerved by one never falter- ing desire and resolve-to live to protect he-r child. The little fellow became restless and fretfulg bruised and jarred by frequent falls, wearied and fevered by the hot sun, and cramped by the constrained position he had so long occupied, he lost his self-control and began to cry piteo-usly. In an agony of apprehen- sion, janet tried to soothe him, and he was just yielding to her persuasion when she saw with a sinking heart the grim form of her foe approaching. I-Ie advanced and held out his arms to the boy, but with a fretful wail he buried his face in his mother's bosom and clung to her convulsively. I-Iuman nature could bear no more. She clasped him closer, and turned desperately to search from the other men some signs of pity or melting. Alas! the involuntary movement sealed the child's doom-with a yell that was absolutely devilish, the brutal Indian tore him from his motherls arms, and taking the little fellow by his feet, dashed his brains out on a neighboring tree. 'Qf the scene that followed we will not speak, The motheris mortal anguish can not be told by tongue or pen. janet Pauley lived on, through toil and wretchedness. Life had become her sworn foe,H she bitterly thought, as the long hours dragged heavily on and she did not die, in spite of torture and fatigue and grief. Her heart was with the mutilated little form that drifted past her down the rapid stream, and then was seen no more. Une warm day just as the sun had sunk behind the horizon, captors and cap- tives reached at last a large Indian settlement in Ghio. After all had rested and been fed the prisoners were notified that they were to run the gauntlet. The Indians ranged themselves in two long lines, bearing sticks and swords, tomahawks, and instruments of torture of every description. janet hailed the ordeal as the hour of her release, for she well knew that her weakened body could endure no such trial. One by one the wretched women made the dread attempt- a few escaping, the greater part gaining a merciful release, through death. As r25 Janet, the last to suffer, advanced to the starting point, the demon who hadipur- sued her throughout with such brutality, advanced, and extended his handg Janet looked at him a moment, as he stood before her in his great strength. Well she knew that hand of his was reeking 'with the blood of husband and child. Ah, well! would she not soon be with them? VVhat matter one pang the more? She put out her trembling hand. VVithout a word he struck her to the ground. .A murmur of indignant protest arose among the Indians. Slowly and with diffi- culty Janet rose fro-m the ground, and dragged her failing limbs to the starting point, but one of the Indians shook his head, and motioning to the now almost fainting woman to follow, he moved across the green to a Wigwam, standing somewhat apart from the rest and of a more imposing appearance. Advancing toward the entrance, over which was extended a heavy curtain o-f bear skins, he pushed her forward. Motioning her to enter, the man retired and Janet was left alone at theentrance. She lifted the curtain and advanced to where, seated upon the floor, surrounded by his wives, there sat a no-ble and venerable looking man. His eyes had not lost their flashing power nor his mouth its firm lines, but the hair upon his head was white as snow, as welll as the heavy brows. Janet advanced until opposite the striking looking figure, and then something in the eagle glance that met her gaze gave relief to her over-wrought spirit. With one great cry o-f anguish, she fell forward at his feet. Long, lo-ng days follo-wed, and Janet still lay in the misty land of delirium, days grew to weeks, and yet no ray of reason returned to the over-wrought brain, but the wives of the great chief nursed' her skilfully and patiently, and one summer day, when the golden mist was flooding the teeming earth, Janet Pauley opened her weary eyes once more to life and its strange burden. As strength and mind returned, she soon found she had much to be thankful for. As soon as she could stand, some weird ceremony was mutteredro-ver her, by old women who seemed to have outlived the Witcli o-f Endor, and at the end of these mysteries, the chief placed his hand first upon her head, and then upon his heart, with a movement full of grace and dignity, thus signifying that she was formally adopted as' his daughter. Then followed tranquil days in the quiet forest-long hours spent with her adopted father, learning his language and teaching him her own. Every waking ho-ur was filled full of active employment, for Janet knew well that in unceasing labor lay her sole salvation for body and mindi Daily she grew fonder of the old chief. The stores belonging to the hapless band of emigrants had all been delivered to the good chief and from these Janet supplied herself with necessary clothing and made her adopted father many little additions to his com- fort,-to his great delight and pride. Finally, she made him a white shirt, and his delight exceeded all bounds. Nothing would do but Janet must make one for each one of his braves, and she was only too eager and glad to win their favor, and thus, as it must ever be, time soothed and healed the sorely tried woman, and then, God sent her a little son, to fill her empty hea.rt. 126 7 'P I 43 6' 1 K 1 1 .lanet's son was born in the fifth month of her captivity, and great was the wonder and delight of the savages! They left the child with his mother for a year, eouteuting themselves with long visits to the wigwam, during which he was handled and shifted from one to another in a manner very alarming to a mother unused to sueh attention, but poor, crushed janet, had no heart nor spirit to object-slie lay back upon her bed of bear skins, like a broken lily, while her great, wistful eyes mntely followed the child's small body, as it was tossed here and there buf lIc Z't'l' lz111'f. After he was a year old, a brave walked in one evening and solemnly made known to the mother that he wanted the boy-Janet dared not deny him-so she saw her little child borne from her into the night, while a very midnight of anguish overwhelmed her soul. A few days' grievous suspense, however, and he was returned-plump and rosy and unharmed, and the poor mother thanked God, and took courage. After that the child was often gone but always returned unhurt and strong and happy. And so, the long days passed, and Janet divided her time between her adopted father and her boy, and the fascination of the strange, wild life, enveloped her as a garment Months drifted by, and years, until the boy was seven, a superb fellow, a picture of manly beauty, and Janet's heart was full oncemore with the swelling flood of a mother's love. As the gloom and shadow of her great griefs in a measure subsided, and life again bounded in her veins, her beauty was enhanced an hundred-fold. The clear, pure air, a veritable elixir of life, gave her eyes the splendor of purple stars, and on her sweet mouth bloomed the red rose of youth. There were traces still of her great sorrows, as there would ever be, but the lines only added a more delicate beauty to the flower-like face, and gave it an added charm even to the untutored Indians, and they worshiped her as a goddess and a queen, her word was law, her very glance an honor. She was invariably treated with respect and deference, and a feeling of perfect security succeeded the terror and anguish of former times. But there came a day when the old chief sickened, daily he became more silent and stayed more closely in his tent. One starry night in june, just a little more than seven years from the time of their capture, Janet sat in the wigwam, close beside him. The door of skins was pushed back for a.ir, and the melodious sounds of the summer night were all around them. The old chieftain reclined upon a rude couch, spread with skins, and on his face death had written his dread summons with unerring finger. H Child of my heart, the old man said, 111 his own tongue, Wfhen the Great Spirit calls thy father, tarry not here, go forth to find the white man from whence thou didst come and return to the forest no more. janet answered him tenderly and with deep reverence, and watched beside him with a daughter's care, until the coming of the great Vffarrior whom none can hope to conquer. The grand old chief was buried with honors, and his son reigned in his stead. As yet, janet had found no opportunity for returningto her own people, but she was beginning to see her adopted father's wise foresight in giving the I27 ----Qma.-a::xi..:- . , 3, 5: ..... command, for the new chief gave unmistakable signs o-f a determination to hold her in his po-wer. The extent of her danger did not, however, enter her mind for a moment. She knew that she was considered a prisoner whose capture con- ferred great distinction, that the young chief would also be glad to retain her because of the many comforts her presence added to his home, besides which, her son was still the idol of the tribe. But that such an idea as marriage would con- nect itself with her, she had not even thought possible. Her very soul sank within her when she remembered the young man's stubborn, brutal nature and the cold-blooded methods he did not scruple to employ to gain his own ends. W'ith his fatheris restraining influence remo-ved, what would hinder him from forcing his wishes? Nothing under heaven but Hight, she knew, and for Hight she must prepare. But Singing Bird suddenly changed his tacticsg for sullenness, he put on meeknessg for fierce overbearing, a gentle dignity that recalled his noble father, and in so doing, lulled her into a false security. She heaved a sigh of relief, and drifted on for some days, trusting that all was well. Une evening, as she sat in the door of her wigwam employed in the manu- facture of a piece of the beautiful bead work for which the Indians are so famed Blue Buck, an old man absolute-ly devoted to her interests, as she well knew, drew stealthily near enough to the wigwam to signal to her. Listen to-night, to the pow-wow of the great chief and his braves-listen, and then he Hitted away into the forest depths. Well she knew his caution was no idle one, for no words could describe the torture meted to him who betrayed the actions of the secret council. Janet knew some dreadful danger overhanging her alone could induce even a friend so faithful as Blue Buck to risk all he was daring now, with the forest thronging with spies from whom all thought of mercy was. as remote as from the teeth o-f a tiger. The night was very dark when Janet Pauley crept with step as light as a feather, nearer and nearer to the wigwam of 'K Singing Birdf' and bent her head to listen to the sounds within. VVhat she heard wa.s sufficient to nerve the most feeble to action. She was to be forced to wed Singing Bird on the third day after the council, and if she rebelled against the mandate, she and her boy were to be burned. That was the last straw. janet had thought them wholly devoted to her little so-n, and the knowledge of his imminent peril did more to arouse her from the dangerous apathy into which she had fallen than any perso-nal danger could have done. She crept softly home, and going to the bo-yis bedside stood watching him in an agony of apprehension. How to rouse him without noise- how to tell him of their mortal peril with the enemy so close, and having ears so keen as to be said actually to ff hear the grass grow l She clasped her hands in mute misery and hopelessness. O my God ! I am utterly undo-nef' was the cry of her desperate heart. just then a hand was placed over her mouth gently but too Hrmly to admit of sound. She raised her eyes to meet those of Blue Buck, and with one great gasp, sank down in supreme relief. He, a.t least, could save them if mortal man could accomplish it. She cast aside her own J ' 128 - agonted mrhdngs and waued pauendy hn'lHue Bucks connnand.

Ch, make them hear, child! call, do you hear? Then upon the still air, above the roar of the river, rose the sound of a child's clear treble seconded by.a womanis tremulous cry, quivering through' the windless atmosphere, and striking at length upon the ears of the rowers in the boat below, they rested on their oars, and looked upward curiously, janet beckoned and called with all the power she possessed, and then taking her handkerchief, she wrapped it round a stone, attaching to it a piece of paper upon which she had during her long hours of waiting, pricked with a pin the words Escaped Indians, help. Janet Pauley. Standing as near the edge of the cliff as she dared, she iiung out her little message, and eagerly waited the result. It fell rapidly, and, missing the boat, 'sank before it could be caught. But no direct message was now necessary. It was too evidently a woman and child in distress, and that sufficed. As quickly as possible they reached the shore, fastened the boat, and slowly and laboriously two of the party climbed to Ianet's lofty eyrie, while the other four remained in charge below. They reached the summit, and were greeted with prayers and tears of thanks- giving and relief from Janet and her boy. Mr. Erskine, the leader of the party of six hunters, could not recover from his amazement at finding a lovely and beautiful womanof delicacy and refinement unsurpassed, perched upon the side of the great river cliff, like so-me strange bird. Ere long Blue Buck returned, and then began preparations for departure. janet made the descent without difficulty, supported by John Erskineis strong arm, and the entire party were soon in the boat, gliding swiftly on to peace and happ-iness once more, far from the haunts of the red man. ' i janet and her boy were welcomed most tenderly by John Erskine's mother, a stately Scotch lady. Long months passed before her mental and physical health were fully regained, but in the atmosphere of happiness and rest to which her good angel had brought her, she regained all her beauty and attractiveness, only it was a chastened loveliness infinitely more fascinating-to john Erskine wholly so-therefore, it will create no surprise to know that ere many years, Janet became John Erskine's loved and honored wife, and in the long and prosperous life which they passed side by side, if anything were needed to enhance their great happiness, tliey found it in contrasting their present joy with the misery and terror and agony which had gone before. . Louis Pauley grew up a splendidly handsome young fellow, deeply devoted to his adopted fa.ther and next to that loved father and his adored mother, ranked in his affections the noted old brave Blue Buck, whose unselfish devotion had delivered them from the snare of the enemy. 130 1 TXVENTY YEARS AFTER.

Charges of Fraud Brought Against Ashton and Kinney on Account of the Large Number of Votes Polled. Exciting Day at the Polls. LACKSBURG, YA., April Lt, IQOI.--Xxilltll the polls elocell YL'4lk'I'llllX' at sunset it nas on one ol the most exining eleeiions in the history 5 W of THE BUGL13. The eleetion was L'lllll'1lk'lk'l'lZk'll ln' the zilteenee wi iz 4 ' e brawls serans etc., clue mainlx' to the exeellent i.-hee norle ul 7 5 , , l Captain Mathews, whose force was :il work all ilzrr, ever un the alert for the rowdy and the drunkarcl. The ofhees of greatest hore, ugliest eznlet, qreznesl sorelieqi-l :mil others I which seemed to helong to the lree-lor-:ill elziss, were hoilx eonlesie-l for. lllll it was for the office ol most popular ezulel that the voting nas Inst gmll inrir-ns and only alter several counts was it ileeiileel that llieles hqnl non. The charge ot ballot-box stnlling lmronglit against liinnex, xx hw reeeixetl the largest number ol 'votes ever pollecl nncler :mv eireinnslzinees, seein no I-e er-wnnil e- . . . ' , I X . i less. lt is elaimecl that the eamlnlnte nseml nnlznr means :intl gietnallx zu.-f'!u.'if lvl' his eleetion. XfVe who know the genial ezimlillznte lxnlxe pleasure in refining the eharge as we know that this is nllerlx' Iieyonrl Ignnnl Xe limi lln Ninn! 11 th ltjel. brought against Ashton, it seems rather hard to credit, the idea of a college spirited man siutling the box being rather hard to digest. Still the charge l'k'llllllllS llllll lllllSl lHelll1sWC1'CCl. p liclow is given a detailed account of the election: Nlosr lii1l'l'l..XR L'.xb1c'r. Nominees--Hicks, Bralley, Sample, Powell, and l lollislcr. .l licks's strong card was his motto, K' Be politef' He won, but Bralley, ihe peoples nominee, and a dark horse in the race, gave him the closest run of his life. XYc congratulate Mr. Hicks on his election. VVe believe he is better qualified for thc position than any man on the card. lliisr fllfl-'lL'liR. Nominees-Bralley, Hicks, and Brodie. Again we see llrallcy and Hicks pitted against each other and this time, sad to relate Qfor Hicksl. Bralley won. Hicks led off well and we believe would have had the race in a walk, but for a card which Bralley got out late in the day. Something to this effect: I respectfully solicit your vote for the office of Best Qfficer. I believe I am qualified to nll the office as I am 0001, calm, and collected under firej have the ability to command, and the respect of my company. Elect me and let me demonstrate these facts. He won, but it was no dead-easy thing. Mosr COLLEGE-SPIRITED C.sxDi3'r. Nominees-Ashton and Powell. No need to say anything of the result hereg we all know what a cinch it was for Ash- ton and we are sorry to say we know also of the charges of fraud brought against him. Speak up, Ashton, and refute this charge. LvGLIEST CADET. Free-for-all. Leaders-Stuart, Hughes, Glass, Poe, and others. Voting started off slow and only late in the day when the friends of Poe and Glass went to work in earnest did the contest become at all spirited. We congratulate Mr. Poe on his election and the people on their choice. GR13-xTEs'r SOREHEAD-.fk1lO'El1G1' free-for-all class with Brooke, R. T., Wfysor and XYood at the head. It would seem from the voting for this office that there were more soreheads in barracks than other kinds. Wfhat we needed was quality not quantity and we got it in Wfysor, with Brooke a close second. lfosr Coxcizifrian Cfxnizir. Nominees-Wfebb, F. D., and Hughes. The result is too well known. It was only a case of swell-head! on the part of Hughes in going up against a man like XfVGlJlJ who snowed him well under. Fkiisniisr RMT. Nominees--Hill and Barrow. Successful candidate, Bar- row. Slay you enjoy your office to the fullest extent. L.xzi.r5s'r MAN. Nominee-fK.inney. Successful candidate, Kinney. VVe can not waste words on such a man. T95 -F ..,.a....-sn114z.c.fl .. ' ,LJ I GRE.-xT13sT BORIS. Free-for-all. Every one has his own pet bore, it is only the more efficient who come to the front. These are AlmOUCl, Xlvebbv P- D., Emil the co-eds. An idea of the large number of candidates in the field will be received when it is known that out of over two hundred votes cast, the co-eds. who headed the lists, only received twenty, while Webb got seventeeng Almond coming in for only eleven. Biooaissr LIAR. Wfe regret to say that there are no good liars in barracks as there used to be. Wfhen an ordinary liar like Bones Beverley is elected to the ofhce of biggest liar it is time for all others to stop. His lies are common. not instructive, and not even amusing. They are simply-lies. BIGGEST S1.ssY. Nominees-Coney, XY. F., Nlebb, lf. D., and Mcinge. McAnge, whose strong card was his last year's occupation of this office. made a dismal failure when he ran up against Coney. lYebb did better. a great deal better, but not well enough. GRE,x'r1zs'r GRowLi2R. Free-for-all, but as usual, there is one man who stands head and shoulders above the rest of the class. This is Poe: poor Poe. Mosr INTQELLECTUAT. Cixpiir. Nominees-Fleet. A. and Tannns. XY. l .. successful candidate, lfleet. NVe are afraid to say anything in regartl io such smart men as Fleet and Tamms, as least said, soonest mended. lfi.XRDliS'lf Sirubizxir. Nominees-Hicks and lsiinlsay. l licksk lilnti' has played out at last as is shown by the way Lindsay walked over him. Mosi' D.l.f.2N.lflf.iliQlD Cixniair. Nominees-Qlg'age. Ql licks. and Yoiing. Al. li. Hicks was as good as elected until he started singing. l'age was not wt-ll known enough to go up against the stately walk, aristocratic curl of the lip, and hold stare of Young. .l5ioc.:if:s'if Bun. lfree-for-all.

Nominees-Webb, If. ll., :int tio 5 H 1 l nhlinin Xltlilw his 6 cheek enough, but Gouldnian has it to spare-lizis so much that he Cllllil keep it to himself, shoves it off on his friends. lfroni the time he enterctl the race there was no doubt as to his election. .l Iis ehcekv wax' ol' iid i ' - r ' him the office.

Richardson led ohf well but lost ground after Turner entered until he let fall the remark that he could lick the man who said he was a bluff, then his election was assured. C.xiiin'r NV l'l o Suows G1uz.rx'rizs'nf lfonnnicss lion P Rolfiissons.-XV e were afraid that this would be misunderstood until we saw the ballots when all doubts were dispelled. Nominees-VVarren, Anderson, Gibboney. Gibboney comes last on the list-why we can't imagine, unless it was that his scientific methods were not known. VVarren leads, with Anderson second. Wfe have given you here the cold, hard facts concerning the election. 'We may have expressed it a little roughly, if so we apologize-it is the best we can do. To those of you who were successful we extend our warmest congratula- tions. You see here what your companions think of you, and if your office gives you honor, make the most of itg if not, profit by the lesson. T97 - .. ,-.nan-.'.n..f a-,Q j, - - - if 2 I l l 1 F l l ?
