The class of 1913 of the University OF

subordinates, who came very near being all
expelled when Just on the eve of gradua-
ton. Having surrendered at discretion
thew all received their diplomas, and have
tins far done their life's work well.
Widely scattered throughout the United
States and the neigbbOring Dominion, the
members of this class have never been all

The VERMONT STATE FAIR.-The present
prospects of the annual fair of the
Vermont State Agricultural Society
and Wool Growers Association to be held
at Rutland the second week in Septem-
Der, are far more encouraging for large
and successful exhibition than for several
years. The premiums in the various de-
partments have been revised, and in most
instances increased. The exhibition of stock
will be larger than usual, bringing together
the best the State affords. The horses pre-
scented will make display worthy of the
Just fame of the State. The floral depart
ment, including the exhibition of the cele-
brated florist of Rochester Mr.. Wick will ex-
coed anything the people of the State have
ever witnessed. The mechanical depart-
ment will present for the inspection of the
visitor larger collection of the useful ar
tlcles than have heretofore been seen.
The exhibition is to be held on the COM
modious and well located grounds of the
Rutland County Agricultural Society south
of the village of Rutland, which is skirted
by the Rutland and Harlem Extension rail-
roads. Trains will be for the conve-
nience of those visiting the fair grounds at
moderate fare, thus avoiding the usual
annoyance of hacks and carriages at extor-
tionate rates of fare. The buildings, sheds
and appurtenances are sufficiently ample to
meet ali the requirements of exhib itors.

The Inman steamship City of Washing
ton, when she struck on Gull Rock bar,
Saturday, had on board twenty-eight cabin
and four hundred and eighty-One Storage
passengers. No one knew the vessel was
approaching land until her keel grated upon
the rocky shoals and she stuck fast. Signal
guns brought fishermen alongside in small
boats and from them the position Of the
ship was learned. All the boats were
speedily launched and manned, and in three
hours from the time of the disaster every
living soul on board was safely landed at
Port lie Bear, where the inhabitants busted
themselves in assisting to provide tempo
rary accommodations for the passen-
gers and crew. All the passengers,
luggage and effects, and ship stores,
were also saved and landed. The ship is
lying on an even keel as if riding at anchor.
The fog did not lift until Monday morning,
when, for the first, time, it was seen that
the vessel had narrowly escaped immediate
destruction, with the probable loss of every
one on board There is about fifteen feet
of water at high tide on the shoal. The en-
CINE room Is full of water which Gibbs and
flows through it, and it Is supposed that
hole was stove in the bottom beneath the
engine room. The second deck is pretty
clear of water, but below that the ship is
full. The distance between the port bows
of The ship and Little Gull rock was
only about two hundred yards. How
she escaped in the dense fog is mar
vellous. and all on board, passengers
and crew, are deeply thankful. In the
direction the ship was steering, along the
dangerous western coast of Nova Scotia.
her escape from destruction on the reef and
the sunken rocks 50 plentifully sprinkled
along the coast, was simply providential
There is no theory offered to account for
he ships deviation, though it is fact that
10 observations had been taken from the |
line OF leaving Liverpool to the moment of |
he disaster. The place where the steamer

what is properly known as Gull Rock bar.
