Satisfied Himself.

Within a short time past resi-
dent of this city who was tempted to
invest in several graveyard insurance
policies, paid good many assess
menus without grumbling. Finally
he got quite a batch of the same old
bills. These informed him of course,
that certain individuals had yielded
up the ghost and as he was a mem
Der of classes in which they were in
sured, why it was necessary that he
should pony up the usual assess
ments. He got money order ano
forwarded it, the same time demand
ing the full name and address OF the
parties reported as dead. In less
than three days his money order was
returned without any explanation
The fact is that the companies were
making a dummy assessment fol
their own benefit, and had they ac-
copied the money forwarded by the
individual referred to, it would have
made them liable to prosecution fol
obtaining money under false pre-
lenses. To avoid this they returned
the funds forwarded to them. The
Spectator in this ease lost faith il
the business and is now quite lou6
in his announcement of graveyard

BY our Special Reporter.
Major Lee departed last Friday
for Yorktown, there to feast his ar
dent military spirit upon the grand
celebration of the tact and valor of
our brave and energetic forefathers.
We wish him a happy and prosper
Gus visit. He will return the latter
part of the week.
Prof. Brooke, Of the University,
returned on the evening of the 10th.
He will resume the duties encumbent
upon him as Prof. of Law at the be-
ginning of next term. We are all
happy to see him back as he is gen
eral favorite among the boys and the
heart of the student is made glad as
he salutes this smiling and affable
gentleman.
The Chapel exercises were opened
this morning by the Rev. Gibbons of
the Episcopal church. He also ia
vored the students for few inmates
with very spirited and interesting
talk upon duty. We are always hap
py to meet gentlemen of such culture
and refinement.
The Senior class gave their first
public performance on the 18th inst.
The performances on the whole were
good. Quite a large and attentive
audience favored the yoang gentle
men with their presence. There was
an abundance Of music, vocal and in-
strumental, both were good, especial
ly the vocal as the pieces were aptly
chosen and splendidly rendered.
The Senior class take this opportu-
nifty to offer their sincere thanks to
those young ladies of Morgantown
who so kindly and generously lent
their time and talent in giving such
excellent music. j. II. Stewart ow-
ing to illness did not perform. Be-
low is the programme Of the evening:
instrumental voluntary, Song
Oh Glorious Land.
Boyd, subject-Decay.
Brown, subject-Thc Worlds
Dread Laugh.
Orchestra
Courtney, subject--Yorktown Cen
tennial
Cox, subject--Great Crises.
Song,-StrilSe the Cymbal.
Hodges, subject-ScotlanGs Gift.
Jeffries, subject-Benedict Arnold.
Orchestra.
Lawhead, subject-The Races Of
Men.
Lewis, subject james A. Garfield.
Song-Good Night, Farewell.
Orchestra.
The Juniors did nos perform along
with the Seniors as usual as the
classes arc 50 large that there is bare
ly time for one in an evening. This
speaks well for the University as the
classes are larger than ever before in
its history The Junior class will
make their first appearance on the
18th of November. Several of them
are looking quite pale and are con
fining themselves very closely to
their rooms. The superstition is
though, that they are only making
due preparations for the dread or
deal.
The Cadets will have target prac-
tice this week.

Senator Malone, the renegade,
from Virginia, was arrested last Sat
! urday night on charge of going to
fight duel with Gen. Early. The
difficulty is said to have grown out
of Gen. Early's speech delivered at
Richmond ON Tuesday. In this
speech Gen. Early referred to Ma
hone in terms of the utmost contempt.
In the course of his speech he asked
when it was that bribed Legisla-
! ture was first heard of in Virginia.
at was when Malone was before it
with his consolidation bill. Then
for the first time," said the General,
twas heard of in the history of the
State bill bribed through the Leg
islature." The speaker entirely fay
ed Malone and now Bill wants to
settle it with pistol bullet

The Graveyard insurance business
is getting into trouble in Pennsylya-
MIA, where we believe it originated.
Gov. Hoyt has peremptorily declined
to grant any more graveyard insur
ance charters. In a communication
to the companies of the State he says
he will not permit the issuance of
charters unless courts of competent
jurisdiction require him to do So
A great many suits are now pending
against these companies in the courts
of Pennsylvania, prosecuted by par
ties who claim to have been defraud-
ed by them. A writer has issued a
phamphlet describing the graveyard
method ofdoing business from which
we take the following paragraphs
which show the "soundness" of the
companies:
"When the Golden Angel was first
started, it had narrow escape from
going under"
The very first subject that was in
sured died the same day. The policy
called for thousand dollars; but
this solitary corpse was the only
member in the class, in fact in the
company, and there was no one to as
sess. In order to make a reputation
for Square dealing" the board Of
managers decided to pay the policy
holder fifty dollars The officers
were assessed to make up this sum
and it nearly accomplished their fl
nancial ruin. But they have learned
to do business on safer principles
since then; and now the company
is regarded as one Of the soundest
concerns Of the two hundred that are
writing policies in Sharkyille and
vicinity"

During the Oriole celebration Bal

These gentlemen assisted largely in
securing the immense attendance at
the celebration, having given extern
sive publication through their jour
} nails to the programme of exercises,
and were warmly welcomed, as they
observed to be, to the Monumental

that by combining some well known
valuable remedies, the most wonderful
medicine was produced, which would
cure such large range of diseases that
most all other remedies could be dis

1t requires no great stretch Of sci
ence to explain why we have had such
vast excess Of weather--such ex-
tremes of heat and cold, wet and dry
ness-this year, as compared with
previous years. Formerly large
part Of the appropriation for the
weather bureau was embezzled; now
it is all expended for weather. Hence
the superfuity.- Washington Post

To-day is the one-hundreth ami
versary of the surrender of Lord
CORVALLIS at Yorktown, which event
practically closed the revolution and
made America a free country. There
are probably two hundred thousand
people there to-day to celebrate the
anniversary of that famous surren-
der. In various parts of the country
people who could not attend are eel
ebrating the day in fitting manner.
1t would be good idea for public
and other schools to have exercises
commemorative of the event and thus
impress the history of that period
upon the memory Of the rising gen
