ape Roland and Mrs. Browning were
also cited. To- had been but short
Lime since the Methodist Episcopal Con-
ference discussed the question OF ordain-
ing women as ministers, but 1t was de-
feated, and SO the women must be con-
tent TO write their husbands sermons.
at this palpable hit there was long and
continued applause.
After the applause had subsidized
Miss Dickersen said that we are not
urging woman suffrage. We do not
want to see them Mary Walkers or
Susan B. Anthonys, but we do urge
that they be allowed to occupy posi-
tions according to their fitness, no
matter whether it be the very highest.
Woman is queen Of the realm of home.
The men of the nation are what their
mothers make them. In the day when
all unwritten history shall be made
known, many women will find their
names written above those of Kings,
they could therefore afford to wait and
yield and work in silence behind the
throne.
Miss Dickerson next reminded the
audience OF the good that had been ac-
complished by the College. She then
addressed the Board of Trustees, the
President and Faculty and also her
classmates. At the conclusion of hei
valedictory, she was loudly applauded.
The exercises closed by the glee class
singing "a Heart Bereft," and the
benediction by DR.. Caldwell.

FINDING FAULT WITHOUT
CAUSE.

Some of our Republican friends are
finding fault with the Sun on account
OF the disclosures about Gen. Gar
field.
This is very unreasonable. These
disclosures were made years ago. Il
is not our fault that the Republicans
had forgotten these damaging facts
We had given them sufficient publici-
ty. 1t is General Garfield's own fault
that they are SO damaging. -
Now let these fault-fnding Republi-
cans meet us squarely and answer "
fairly on this point
Would they like TO see us become .
party to Gen. Garfield's bribe taking
by concealing the truth =? h.'l
Do they think that would be inde-
dendent, honest, and honorable jour
nalism

Vegetables, butter and other neces-
sarics of life was very scarce this week
in Newark, everything available hav-
ing been purchased by those who ex-
pected to entertain friends during
commencement.
Some improvements are being made
to some of the houses in the lower part
of the town, and it is a fact plainly
apparent, that it was not done before
it was almost an absolute necessity
A few dollars judiciously expended
makes quite difference in the appear
ance of dwelling.
