LIBRARY WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSI (15obcvnor aibcrt 15, m ) tt Albert B. Wiiite is a college-bred man, having taken the degree of A. B. in the classical course at Marietta College, class of 1878, being valedictorian of his class, which numbered twenty-two at graduation. He has since taken the degree of A. M. in cursu. From July, 1878, to July, 1899, he was engaged in the newspaper business. He purchased the Daily State Journal at Parkersburg, early in 1881, and was editor of that paper, establishing the daily issue of it in 1883, until he disposed of his newspaper interests in July. 1899- He was President of the National Editorial .-Kssociation of the United States in 1888. He served two terms as United States Collector of Internal Revenue for the District of West Virginia — the first term under President Harrison ' s administration and the second term under McKinley ' s first administration, resigning the position upon being elected Governor. He was elected Governor in 1900 by a majoritv ap- proximating 20,000, and was inaugurated March 4, 1901. Governor White is specially interested in educational matters, his father being one of the leading educators of the country, and has shown himself to be a warm friend of the University as well as of our other State educational institutions. He was born Septem1)er 22, 1856. i on. i cnr (3, aW Hon-. Hknky G. D.wis, Chairman of the United States delegation to the Pan-American Conference, was born in Maryland. His early life was spent on a farm. When, in early manhood, the Baltimore and Ohio Rail- road was built through the farm on which he lived, he was employed by that company, and thus became inter- ested in railroading, to which most of his life has been devoted. He is now president of the West Virginia Central and Pittsburg, the Piedmont and Cumberland, the Coal and Iron railway companies, and also of the Davis Coal and Coke Company, one of the leading bitum- inous coal corporations of the United States. For many years he has ' been one of the leading spirits in the devel- opment of West irginia, and a number of towns have been founded by him, the largest of which, Davis, is a community of some three thousand people. His politi- cal career began when he was elected a delegate to the West Virginia State Legislature. He was twice elected to the State Senate, and on the occasion of his first election to that body every vote except one, in the town of Pied- mont, in which he then lived, was cast for him. From the State Senate lie went to the United States Senate, serving there twelve years, when he declined re-election in order to give all of his attention to the development of the natural resources of his State. While in the United States Senate, he was a prominent member of the Appro- priations Committee, and for some time its chairman. He is now president of the Davis National Bank and the West Virginia Trust Company, and a director in several other financial institutions. Although deeply engrossed in business aiTairs, he has from time to time been called upon to give his counsel in matters of public interest, and is now a member of the commission recently appointed to revise the taxation and corporation laws of West ' ir- ginia. Mr. Davis has always taken a deep interest in the improvement of the political and commercial relations of the American republics. He served as a delegate to the first Pan-American Congress, held in Washington in 1889, and was a member of the International Railway Commission which supervised the surveys for the pro- posed road to connect the railway systems of the United States and Mexico with those of Argentina. , - ' ° ' -c . , .

Such a state of affairs is continually taking place around us ; little things are terminating in great issues. The truth of this statement can nowhere find greater proof than by comparing the Freshmen Class of 1900 with the Junior Class of 1902. In the fall of ' 99 a number of eager and hopeful stu- dents entered the college walls of the West Virginia Uni- versity. This body of people was composed of distin- guished graduates of West Virginia ' s High Schools and Seminaries. While a few had just passed through the trials and tortures of Prepdom in the University, fear and awe for their respective seniors in college work kept their eloquence, ability and power lying latent, instead of being active and progressive. The Monticola Board of that year announced to the public that the Freshmen Class was too young for a history, and not sufficiently logical for an organization. Ah, how manners and times have changed ! The post-graduate visiting his Alma Mater to- day asks if it can be possible that these active, wide-awake and energetic Juniors are the same ones who composed the obscure and almost forgotten Freshmen Class of 1900. As a great calm always precedes an outburst of tempest and storm, so the silence of this one year paved the way for far grander achievements than had been accomplished by preceding classes. After all examinations were over, and the feet were firmly placed on the second rung of the college ladder, a new impulse and ambition was given to all. A desire to be known became manifest. Accordingly a class organi- zation was elTected, and one of the most brilliant and ener- getic members chosen as president. Learning now made rapid progress. Poetry thrived admirably under the new environment. Songsters made their first appearance and gave promise of a magnificent and glorious future success. The evening of November 26, 1901, was cold and frosty when the Juniors assembled for organization. A score of efficient and willing officers were elected. The interest of the class was taken to heart. All were eager and anxious to do and dare. The efforts put forth have not been in vain, as many of the Juniors have already made them- selves famous in the institution. The societies have been wonderfully helped with the literary ability possessed by members of this class. On the athletic field the Juniors are worthy of special notice. Honors and renown have been won on all sides. Orators are winning glory for themselves and their class. De- baters gain the decision in contests. All are learning and daily receiving lessons, which will help them to become better men and women and will enable them to do more for God and man. If the historian possessed sufficient power, she would uncover the misty veil of the future and present each indi- vidual as he will appear in his particular walk of life. Orators, statesmen, preachers and lawyers rise in hopeless confusion. Each one is distinguished in his particular profession and is winning laurels from all men. The girls appear no less distinguished, although their abilities are show n in different lines. Some of their names shine with that of Susan B. Anthony as stars in the gal- axy of those who have given their lives that woman may have equal rights with her brother ; others, in the humbler though no less honorable walks of life, live dispensing charity, and trying to raise the poor and lowly to a higher and nobler life. But let the station in life be what it will, may each member of the class be a whole-hearted, true-souled man and woman, and ever do his best to make the world better for having lived in it. This above all, to thine ownself be true. And it must follow as night, the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man. • — HlST0RI.

Intro- duced by an exposition on the dignity of the law, devel- oped by the narration of petitions, riots, mobs and order : concluded with a prophecy of fame and justice. Filled with wit and erudition. Petitioning the God of forgiveness for a new trial, and justifying all wrongs by putting the blame on another class. The Law Class, commonly known as The Animals, ' have preceded us. The Barbarians of 1900 have gone from the marked halls. The Aggregation of Freaks, the Juniors, follow in our footsteps, one year behind. We have either failed to merit, or defied, description. Whether our platform is order or chaos ; whether we stand for law or anarchy, no one has been able to guess. It is not un- likely that we all are of all types and possessed of all pur- poses within a single day ; yes, moved in our feelings from tears of pity to rejoicings in hellishness. So whether we seriously study now, and in another moment innocently throw missiles in Judge ' s room, assassinating some fel- low : or whether we go religiously and prayerfully to church four times on Sunday and come down street Mon- dav morning singing Hail! Hail! the gang ' s all here, what in the Hell do we care? we are the Senior Laws — that ' s all : no other or more careful description will add anything to the comprehension of the hundreds who see and hear ! us every day. Moreover, the students of the vmiversity are universally glad that we are here. For the law student can sit face to face with his teacher, upset the chair of his fellow-student and declare that the poor fellow ' s head was broken on the floor by his own wrongful, wilful and voluntary act. So the law student cheerfully bears the blame of every act of misconduct, even of Prep, and Cop. He thinks it is a part of his life. That is what he is here for, to relieve guilty humanity. Xor does condemnation take from his aggressiveness. The events that have occupied no small part of our attention are worth chronicling, too. For our fellow stu- dents they are Sport that wrinkled Care derides. Roseinbloom buys a two-headed calf and becomes Mor- gantown ' s popular menagerie keeper. Pope Theordorofif (who used to sell pictures) sees a business opportunity and negotiat es with Rosey for the exclusive right to publish and sell his picture. Rosey demands that The- ordorofif withdraw negotiation under penalty of the fist, and the picture man, being bulldozed. again makes the menagerie keeper an oflfer — to get a bullet and fight him Pope retires from the class saying: Excuse me. Pro- fessor, I ' ll go get a gun. ( Seeks legal advice.) Jokes depend on the atmosphere. Xow Dr. Brooke never admits of jokes. Well. Sah, ' Sir. X , I see no occasion for merriment, Sah. The windows are all closed tight. Sah, and the air currents cut off, Sah, and it is already so stuffy here, Sah, that I expect, Sah, no one will find occasion for doing more than absorb the lecture. Sah. Xor indeed does he. It is with great eft ' ort that the lecture is imbedded in the mind of tlie student after it passes througli the hot, dense air of tlie room, even when Doctor pauses to give what he has said time to lodge. The events of the class room of the Dean have not the wondrous perspective of time that would diminish the prominence of unrighteous conduct and suflfer minor de- tails to melt into the haze of the receding landscape. ' e would refrain from narrating how the only class that can be trusted (on examination day!!) is said to Chip, chip, chip the plaster ; how chairs turn over and their occupants are carried out ; how marbles, rocks, clods, clubs and pennies are thrown ; how sulphuretted hydrogen makes the very walls of the room offensive ; how all man- ner of conduct passes by without indictment, trial and con- viction. -And the Dean is convinced that what he saw Mr. .• . do was the misconduct of Mr. B. — and thus he is com- pelled to disbelieve his own senses, so stoutly does the apprentice at law argue. In law, what plea so tainted and corrupt, But, being seasoned with a gracious voice, Obscures the show of evil ? But after the days of work and pleasure have ended here in college, life calls to other fields. The classic halls come to be objects of dearest memory, and the activities of life absorb alike the reckless and the sincere. With life, duties and responsibilities grow. Parents, com- munity. State and nation claim something from our lives. So the recklessness of college days is put aside ; strength and dignity, manliness and honor mark the lawyer among his fellowmen. He lives to his God, his countrv, his dutv. Mastering the lawless science of our law — That codeless myriad of precedent. That wilderness of single instances. Through which a few, by wit or fortune led, lav beat a pathway out to wealth and fame. Historian. i ijstorv of junior Lato Clajsji It was the i6th of September that about fifty students matriculated with one of the several members of the law faculty as their class officer. Those men met at 8 130 the following morning to listen to their first lecture in lUack- stone. That hour has become sacred to the memory of those young men, as the time when they entered upon their life ' s work and took upon themselves the profession of law, the noblest profession in all the world, that of righting humane wrongs. Those men constituted the Junior Law Class of nineteen hundred and three. Men from every part of the Mountain State, from X ' irginia. Pennsylvania and Texas joined in making the class of 03 one of the most brilliant classes of that department. In the ranks of the Junior Law are poets, soldiers, farm- ers, authors, artists, senators, legislators and even a mem- ber of the Board of Regents of our L ' niversity, all of whom have the brightest of prospects. They may not all become beacon lights in their profession, but those who lack the brilliancy of mind characteristic of some have that dogged preseverance and determination which will bring them success. Although the class has been rent at times liy fights be- tween its members as to who should hold offices, it is not weakened like the Greek and Spartan states of old, but remained a strong, sturdy and united class when a com- mon enemy arose. We have said that there has been some trouble between members of the class, but it was only such wrangling as occurs when there is a real old-fashioned blood and thunder class election. There was an election held during the first term and a president was elected without a di ssenting vote ; but, un- fortunatelv, the president thus chosen was forced to lay down his sceptre on leaving school at the end of that term, and another election was precipitated. It was dur- ing the winter term that the second election was held, and Time whereof the memory of man runneth not to the contrary has recorded none like it. So much excellent material could be had to fill the posi- tion that it took all of an afternoon to determine who was president. The vear is nearly gone and the class has made a strenuous etifort to master Blackstone under the guidance of our most learned instructor, Dr. lirooke. Difficulties that have arisen in contracts and bailments have, by the ever ready hand of Professor Willey. been wiped away. The obstacles which have loomed up before us in our study of criminal law have been surmounted with ease under the masterly direction of Judge Johnson. The class behavior has at times been assailed by stu- dents of other departments, but those who know the class will testify to the fact that a more decorous class never entered a lecture room. JUNIOR LAW CLASS. JNIen of the highest type of manliood, both meiitallv and physically, are the Junior Laws. Three of our men hold positions on the baseball team and few there are in any college who play a better game. We do not stop, however, with athletic honors only. Two of our class have been chosen to represent the lite- rary societies of the college in the coming contests. Time and space are too short to say more as to the honors the class has gained. As the members of the class of ' 03 proceed on their course through college and at last thrust themselves into the rough highways of the world, we can prophesy a happy, successful life for all.

Ei-planator The Alfred Cuild is a direct outgrowth of the in- creased interest in Anglo-Saxon language and history among the English speaking peoples. The Shield, the Sword, and the Pen of King Alfred have played no small part in directing and shaping the afifairs of the world. The name and fame of Alfred come down bright and clear to us through the sunshine and shadows of a thousand years. We do homage at his shrine.

The Yoinc ' o.MEN■s Christian . ssoci. tion t)F the West X ' ikginia University has during the two years of its existence arisen from a shadowy uncertainty to a firm reality. The former enrollment of fifteen has increased to fifty. The various departments of the Asso- ciation are carrying out their special line of work in an efficient and profitable manner. The spiritual work lias received the most careful thought and prayer. Tlie development of active Christian character among the members is earnestly sought for. With a welcoming smile, the members of the Asso- ciation are constantly seeking to extend a helping hand to the girls who, having left the protecting care of the parental home, are cast among strangers in the citv of lorgantown. The Association extends an earnest appeal for all Christian girls to give their assistance in promoting the cause of Christ. ( )n the other hand, it earnestly desires those who are not Christians to come and be helped by the influence of Christian fellowship. Parthenon Lttcrarr octct OFFICERS FOR 1901-02. Fall Term.

If they had been older they would have been more dignitied.no doubt, and would have employed those proper and polite forms of courtship with which veteran lovers delight to torture each other. But unfortunately they knew no more about lovemaking than the birds that mate in the spring time : — that is why I have this story to record. Roger was the offspring of good old English ancestors — I suppose that is the proper way to say it. Everything that smacks of aristocracy must be spoken of with some enthusiasm. He was gay, petted, allowed to do anything he wished except mingle with his vulgar neighbors. He must not go out alone for fear that he might not be able to select companions who were his equals in birth and social standing. Consequently he was lonely, dissatisfied, and victim marked for the blind boys ' aim. With Roger in this state of mind, a new family moved into the house next door. The event was hardly noticed by Roger ' s family, who, being aristocratic, entertained a lordly indifiference for their immediate neighbors ; but Roger had not yet grown into this family virtue. He was curious to know what his neighbors were like ; so it was not long until he was reconnoitering the newcomers from the back-yard fence. And that is how he first saw her. Kittie, for this happened to be her name, was a pretty, plump, romping little thing, with gentle voice and kitten- like wavs, innocent and thoughtless, just like the sort of creature that is most bewitching to the opposite se.x. She could not have been more appropriately named. Roger had never seen anything so charming ; he suddenly felt extremely lonesome in his back-yard. Pass over the strolls that Roger took to and fro, along the garden fence ; they afforded little satisfaction to him and would hardly interest you. One day in looking out of my window, which overlooked Kittie ' s garden from the other side — and by the way I had, somehow, contracted the habit of looking out of that window — I saw Roger on the wrong side of the fence. I don ' t know how he came to make such a mistake, but there he was. And there was Kittie also, apparently not a bit offended at his impu- dence : indeed they seemed already to be the best of friends. Youthful, innocent, hearts never see the social barriers between them. They just flow into one another as naturally and as thoughtlessly as brooklets. This was not the only time that Roger visited his neigh- bor ' s back-yard. It grew to be a habit with him ; and Kittie seemed actually to encourage him and was always waiting for him. Those delightful afternoons in May seemed to have been designed just for these two. They had contracted an alarming attachment for each other — youthful loves are sometimes called by the undignified and vulgar name of pu]ipy-love. I suppose this was a case of puppy-love. Now, I don ' t know what excuse Roger could have given for this continuous trespassing on his neighbor ' s ter- ritory, or whether he had any excuse. At any rate, he might have known that this back-vard courting would bring trouble : but I have already said, he was young and foolish. You will notice that Roger carried on his courtship in the afternoon. This was the only time available for the ])urpose. In the evening he would have been missed from the family circle and the cause of his absence inves- tigated : but in the afternoon, as I have found out from stories on this subject, each one amuses himself as best he can. It was Roger ' s opportunity. Kittie s flirtations, however, were not confined to the afternoon. Perhaps this is rather a harsh accusation. It does seem almost sacrilegious to even suspect duplicity in one apparently so artless : but who knows ? The ways of the sex are past finding out. .-Ml I know is, that, in the evening, when Roger was sleeping the sleep of the just, there have risen to my ears from that back-yard accents of a masculine voice that was not Roger ' s. Still worse, Roger ' s conduct came to the ears of his family : they were scandalized. If he had been caught walking in thievish ways, they would not have considered it a greater disgrace. If he wished to go calling the best parlors of tlie city were open to him. hy then did he not proceed like a Christian, instead of prowling aroimd other people ' s back-yards? Then, too, very likely Miss Kittie was low born and no fit companion for him. The circumstances demand severe discipline and as a foretaste of the punishment to follow, the young culpri t spent the rest of the day behind a locked door. ' hen one is gentle, one ' s family takes such an absurd interest in one ' s aflfairs! Roger found it so. He was so carefullv watched that he could get no chance to see Kittie. How lonesome she must be now ! One day he just went out to the fence. He was at once called back and reprimanded. And that evening — why did he not go quietly to bed as usual ? But no, that was too tame a procedure for his present state of mind. He was restless and ill-tempered and finally stealing away from the sitting-room made his way to the back porch. Nature was doing her utmost to bring forth a perfect night. The pure, pale, moonlight lay upon the earth like a vestal garment, and softly through the leaves whispered the breath of the summer night. It was a scene to soothe every human passion. I do not sa}- that it soothed Roger : he was too angry to notice it. In a short time he left the house and walked out into the garden. It was not long until, either on account of his abstrac- tion or from force of habit, he was in his neighbor ' s back- vard. Xow, he should have remained at home. Any one, who is used to it may roam about at night without hazard, but when a novice goes out something is sure to happen. Everybody knows this, but poor, unsuspecting Roger, once in his old haunts, as if by magic, his abstraction left him. Every nook, upon which his eye rested, was asso- ciated with some pleasant recollection of Kittie. Under this lilac bush they had lingered so often at parting that he could hardly realize that he now stood there alone. Moved by an indescribable longing, he sauntered up toward the house : and there on the steps sat Kittie. He sprang forward eagerly, but at once checked himself and stood in amazement. There by her side sat another. It is the old story over again., The one before him looked enough like her to be her brother, but unfortunately Roger did not know of any brothers. Though young Roger was no coward : and besides he was thoroughly aroused. In a fit of jealousy he sprang forward to expel the intruder. Roger ' s .recollection of what followed was confused. He felt a stinging pain about his nose and then found himself rolling on the ground with his rival. When he found that he was getting the worst of the encounter, he was not long proclaiming his distress to the neighbors, while his antagonist, who was a coarse fellow, poured forth a stream of profanity that made the air tremble. Roger ' s family soon appeared on the scene and he was rescued and taken home, but in a sadly disfigured and painful condition. His sad plight won some sympathy, but this second of- ■Dleat Vitginfa tlnfamst STUDENT ' S REGISTPATION BLAKK . r .jsC . : y.? .

In our new land submission and independence were contending for supremacy. Yet for the inhabitants of this little settlement far back in the mountains the flag was the symbol of lasting peace and happiness. The first anniversary of Independence Day had come. Because of the joyous glow of patriotism in ever}- l)reast all life seemed l righter. The roses breathed forth a sweeter fragrance, the oaks and pines and chestnuts reflected deeper greens, the sky was lilucr. and the sun shone more dazzlingly. And now. in the bright glow of the setting- sun the new emblem was to be vmfurled. Never had the old flag been so loved an d honored as was now this new one. The tallest and shapeliest birch in the little village square had been chosen as the most befitting bearer of the dear em- blem. The tree had been stripped of its boughs, then gayly decked by the village maidens with flowers and rib- bons of the brightest colors. F lowers, too, were collected in great bunches or lay scattered in the grass, doing homage to the flag in silence and fragrance. . nd see the festive gathering beneath the gayly adorned tree! .All the village was there, clad in bright and glowing garb, ribbons and flowers decking youths and maidens all. Some, too, there were, who, more bent u|)on the festivity of the occasion than its patriotism. had chosen the time for masquerade. These were now mingling in the gathering. There was he of the savage Indian type; another wore the horns and skin of some wild animal and in this garb suggested freedom. The head and antlers of a stag decked one young man; and there was the bear ' s prototype ' in all but the hind legs, which showed a dazzling scarlet, in the long silk stock- ings. The real bear was there also, a living, moving creature, a tamed wild-animal of the forest, came to bestow his little tribute in dance and to take his oath of allegiance to the flag. Had a traveler come ujjon these people suddenly from out of the darkness of the forest, he might have thought them some of the old world ' s bacchanalian revelers; but to a group of stern British soldiers, who looked on, unseen themselves among the trees, they were a band of unjirincipled traitors. . part from the merry patriots and a little nearer the flag-pole stood two forms, more dignified and beautiful than were often seen in this sparsely settled land. One was a youth, clad in glistening apparel, with a sash of his coiuitr} ' s colors draped upon his breast. Bv his right hand he held the rope of twisted birch-liark that would unfurl the flag at the top of the pole; and with the left hand he clasped the more slender one of a fair maiden, no less beautifully robed than he. Behind the couple and so closely hidden in the shadow of the flower decked pole tliat he was scarcely visible, stood the quiet yet joyful chaplain of the little group. He was dressed in clerical robes, which, however, lost their gloom in their decora- tions of bright flowers and brilliantly colored streamers. When he stepped out into the light, the man seemed, by the suppressed action in his body, and the sparkle of his eye, the most jovial of them all, and the natural leader of the group. People of the flag. cried the light-hearted chaplain, jovfullv. all the year, have your voices echoed the forest ' s cry of freedom. But let this be your happiest hour, for here, indeed, is joy! Before you stand the chosen of your village, whom, presently, I. as a servant of God. will join in holy matrimony. P ut first another office is theirs to fulfil for us. Xow join you all in dance and song! Let the woods ring out merrily, full of wild glee and free as the forest, while the youth draws the birchen rope and unfurls for us our glorious emblem of freedom! Now sing, all ye that love the cause, and let the Stars and Stripes forever wave! Though th unfurling of the flag was only less serious than the marriage ceremony itself, yet song and dance, shout and jest, kept up merrily upon this doubly festive evening. The flag was unfurled midst a chorus, wild in glee and rich in patriotism. Then followed a few moments of quiet calm while the clergyman spoke the solemn words which made the youth and maiden man and wife. A few moments only of calm, then a young girl stepped forth, first scattering roses all about the pair; then, throwing a single laurel wreath over their heads, she prophesied thus their future life. The calm was broken, song and dance burst forth anew. Let the forest ring! called they. Shout till the trees take up the echo and send it back again! The trees took up the echo and sent it back again, and the flag waved softly its approval ; but the youth looking into his dear one ' s eyes was pained to see there a pen- sive sadness. Dorothy, my heart ' s dearest. whispered he. are these roses, thorns, and is this laurel, rue. that you look so sad? Dear one. this is our time of joy. Cloud it not with any sorrows for it may be that nothing to come will be brighter than the remembrance of this hour. That was the very thought that made me sad. Why should we both think of it? answered Dorothy, softly, that no tone of sadness might mar the mirth of others. Something tells me. in my heart, my husband, that this happiness is but momentary. There is a vision, not yet quite plain, but I feel that the mystery will be solved. Just then, as if the spell had cast its influence there, the flag twirled gently by the wind, caught on the birchen pole and remained half furled. It too. like the lovers, seemed to feel a gloomy presentiment and foretold the loss of freedoiTi. While the hour of sunset was passing, joy still reigned in hearts of the little band. Let us leave the group, now in their happiness, that we may discover who they were and why they had thus assembed. Two hundred years ago, and more, a little group of colonists sailed from the Old World and landed in Penn- svlvania on the banks of the Delaware. But because the king was just to his colonists, peace reigned not in the city founded by Penn. The Httle band pushed on into the forest where they hoped to live undisturbed. Ar- rested by the broad waters of the Susquehanna they stopped and built their homes. They named their little mountain village Golden Springs. When the band had met one day to decide upon a name for their settlement, one of the men, bringing a pail of water, had happily said, The sun shines every morning and evening so regally on our little spring that it makes the w ' ater seem like pure gold. Let us call our village (iolden Springs. The sentiment pleased the group and the village found its name. Soon love for their new country imparted to the colon- ists a desire to know how it was faring in the contention with Britain and communication was established with the nearest city. Thus they learned of the Declaration of Independence and pledged themselves to its uphold- ing. They were happy and merry in their far-away village, while the freedom they learned to love there was a freedom they wished for all. So now they had made their flag, to be unfurled on the anniversary of the birth of freedom: and the youth, chosen to wave widely the banner ' s folds, had prevailed upon the loved one of his heart to make the occasion doubly dear to him. The maid had consented and all the people rejoiced in their joy and worked merrily to make the day wholly festive. But the thought of freedom was not forgot. Patriotism ranged side by side with love. As we glance once again at the birchen pole we see the flag still caught, yet struggling bravely to be free. A last beam of the setting sun shines down upon it, mak- ing the red, the white and the blue each distinct in their turn and with gentle glow lingering long upon the little stars. The light grows dimmer, the shadows darken, until the stars and stripes are lost in the gathering gloom. With the darkness came strange figures and inter- mingled with the group of merry makers. The company left unfinished its song, the revellers stood strangely calm. The Indian laid down his weapon and ceased the war-whoop which had sarcastically proclaimed his peacefulness; the stag raised his head to listen and pre- pare for fight: the bear caught up the Indian ' s weapon and stood ready in defense. In their midst stood the leader of the hostile intruders. Stern in aspect, energetic in movement, the whole man seemed inade of iron, en- dowed with life, but without soul. He was the British commander. Burgoyne. Stand off, false subject! cried he in threatening tone to the surprised leader of the village group. I know thee Boyd, thou art the man who left thine own country and come hither to preach peace and prepare for war, a liar to your God and a traitor to your country. But first we shall see which flag shall wave. Let our standard be raised and woe unto him who disturbs it! With his strong arm Burgoyne grasped the rope which controlled the Stars and Stripes. But the rope obeyed not. Then the enraged man assaulted the birchen pole and rested not until the pole lay prostrate on the village square. Strij) it of its silly gee-gaws and danglings, men of mine, but mind that you leave the flag for me to dispose of. By its fall it prophesied our victory. Independence is not yet. Now give me that striped muslin rag and I ' ll make an emblem of it. But the flag was gone. There were stern hearts and true in that patriotic group. Death might be theirs, but not dishonor. I thought not to regret the cutting down of the pole, cried Burgoyne. when apprised of the loss of the flag, but now I would it were made use of once more. I should like to have the prisoners dance around it to the tune of a thong until their flag shall be found. But bind the prisoners and bestow on them a few stripes to ac- quaint them of future justice. How many stripes for the clergyman? inquired Joseph Stone. Burgoyne s aide. Xone as yet. replied the stern general, until we decide what will atone for his misdeeds. Let him be- ware! A traitor ' s penalty is death! And this dancing bear, grinning at us so insolently. what ' s to be done with him? shouted another officer. Shoot him through the head and have done with the brute. came the order. Here stand a pretty pair. said Stone. They seem to be receiving homage here. They need a double share of the spoils, eh. General? Burgoyne sheathed his sword and allowed himself to look upon the helpless couple. They stood there calm, self-collected, submissive. Apprehensive, yet fearless, in the first hour of their wedlock, they had learned to de- pend upon each other. Youth. said Burgoyne. you show your happiness at the wrong time. Prepare to accept your share of ad- versity. Man, cried the youth, are you stone? Will noth- ing move you? How I should like to fight you to the death, but the means is wanting. Under your imprison- ment, powerless, here I beg, I implore! Do with me as you will, but touch not Dorothy, my wife. Is there any reason why the husband should suffer and the wife go free? What sayest thou woman? Be it death and lay it all on me! Even this iron-hearted commander could not wholly conceal the softened heart which the girl ' s words i- forced. Trouble has come early upon these young lovers. he observed. Have a care for them, and see how they comport themselves. The youth is comely and may make a brave soldier. He could teach us many things of this big cotmtry. and the maid may be of service, too. And you, young couple, think not that forest freedom brings a happier life than loyalty to the king. The prisoners were gathered, gloom deepened upon the little village: sorrow was in the hearts of all. They went sadly to their homes to await their doom in the morning. But they knew that the flag was not destroyed and they foresaw freedom in the fate of the lovers whom thev had but latelv crowned with laurel. G. P.

This river affords exceptional facilities for boating and fishing. A few miles down the river is Point Marion, a very popular resort for students. a Confcjjjston Perhaps th(3se who do not know me will init care to read this account of my experience, because they will believe it to l)e untrue. Perhaps my friends will avoid it because they believe it to be true. However, I shall write it to relieve my mind. Aly brain seems weighed down with never-ending thoughts. The blood rushes boiling to my head; as quickly receding, freezing in my veins. L ' nder such a strain either one ' s mind or body must give way. This cannot last long. I was the onl - child of wealthy parents, consequently jjetted and spoiled. ' Sly worst fault was a violent tem- per. If any one interfered with me in any way I flew into a rage, and for the time was entirely unconscious of my actions. At the age of sixteen I was sent to college, where I completed a regular classical course. Afterwards I was graduated in Medicine with high honors, in consequence of which I was rewarded with a fellowship. For a num- ber of years afterwards I taught, first in one place and then in another. For the last ten years I have been Professor of Physiology and Anatomy in P) College. I have been respected and honored by both faculty and students — for ten years — yes, until yesterday, I was loved. For a number of years there has been in the basement of one of the buildings of the college a box of bones. Manv times I had thought of putting them together. No one seemed to have much knowledge concerning them — they did not know even where they came from. There was need of another human skeleton for demon- stration in the class room; so I attempted, two nights ago, to mount these bones. Oh, if I had not touched them! Vh)- did I not leave them to lie in the dust of years and mold forever? Two short days ago I was happy. All the misdeeds — the crimes — yes, the crimes — had been laid away — pushed from my mind, and I was at peace with all the world. ISut now . Ah, that terrible night! It is March; the wind blows fitfully. x gainst the brick building the full-leafed pine switches and the bare oak branches scrape stiffly. Now and then there is a dash of sleet and rain against the window. I raise the skull to hang it on the hook in the frame I have arranged for it. What a small head it is! Surely the bones must have been those of a very small person. But, no — I lift the left femur — it ie that of a man at least five feet ten inches tall. Slowly a painful memory creeps upon me. The reconstruction continues. The little brass hooks and screws are fitted into their proper places. When I turn my eyes upward toward the skull I tremble and bur - my face in my hands. But why should this skeleton affect me so? I have handled bones — human bones — for ears. without the slightest thoughts of terror. The right hand has just been put in place and I arrange the bones of the left. . 11 the bones are there excepting those of the index finger. Where are they? No — the box is empt - now. they are not there. I slowly and hesitatingly raise the hand and fasten it to the wrist. Oh, that miss- ing finger! 1 step back to survey my work. That small head! That empty space on the left hand! Slowly and piercingly they burn their impressions into my brain. I turn to the window, raising it to let the night air cool my aching head. A gust of wind blows into the room. I hear the dry bones behind me rattle, and the sound is like a harsh chuckle. I wheel around, prepared to undo the work I have just completed. Horrors! the left hand of the thing before me is raised! The fingerless space points at me. . bove it the little ;kull grins mockint;iy at nie. ith sudden rage I step forward and catch the uplifted hand. How colfl it feels! With nameless fear I begin to remove the hand. My knife slips and cut? — not bone but flesh. Oh, Heaven! the hand I hold is fast becoming cov- ered with human flesh. I raise my eyes and look along the arm — the same cold hideous thing creeps like a wave toward the shoulder. I shrinkingly glance at the head. 1 he wave of flesh has not yet reached it, but there in the orbital pits are two staring eyeballs, fixed and glassy. ( )h. (iod! Then it is his skull; it is his maimed left hand! I fall forward senseless, drawing the vile object with me to the floor. For two days my mind has not been free from the haunting thoughts of that — that — What could describe it! Hut I shall not suffer this torment longer. I know not what may be my fate when the contents of this small vial are gone, but all the fiends of Hell have no terror for me now. . ak.mi W.
