AT last all the returns are in and
Governor Knots majority in exact
figures is 40, 4S7 a gain over Black
burns of 1920, Notwithstanding
Billy Bradley's speeches and his nu-
merous CAMPAIGN documents. Knott
led his ticket from 1900 to 1900 and
Morrow was fully as far ahead of his.
The formers vote is 1873, 6lS and the
latter's 1881, total 22l, 1893. In
1879 the total vote was 207, 6S1.
This is gain OF 1919 in the demo
cratic and G, 299 in the republican
vote in four years. Cecirs majority
over the "nigger" is 60.936, which
shows that the white republicans lie
when they pretend to love the colored

THE CLASSICAL soCI!:TY.
Rev. DIR. sundorland's Interesting Paper

Rev. DIR. Sundorland's Interesting Paper
ON the Pyramid Cheops and the Discuss
sion Thereon.
The last meeting of the Classical soc iety for
the season was held at Miss Ransom's studio
last night Despite the inclement weather
thore was a large assemblage. Rev. DR.. Sum
derland had prepared paper on the great
pyramid o. Cheops, in which was carefully
digested an the learning of the subject, with
tho many ingenious speculations made upon
this wonderful work. A diagram of the pyr-
amid with its telescope passage its bottom
less pit, its chambers of the king and queen,
and its other mysterious wonders, was placed
on blackboard and those things pointed out
by President Patton, of Howard university.
Dr. Sunderland's paper was long
and intensely interesting one. Its
chief features were n claim that the pyramid
was awprlS whose construction was divinely
inspired that it was intended as n repository
of science to be discovered in the fullnoss of
time, wherewith to confute the pretensions
of scientific infidelity, and that it revealed
geomctrical truths that hitherto had escaped
the analysis of the profoundest mathema-
ticians. 1t discovered q solution of the prob
lcm of the quadrature of the circle. The per-
pendicular of the pyramid was semi-diame-
ter of the circle whose area was equal to the
Rev. DIR. Patton, Prof. Elliott, Judge Upton,
and others discussed the paper Prof. Elliott,
in the course of his remarks, claimed that tho
| analytical unit of the pyramid measurement,
| as formulated by Smyth Seizo Dow and others
was not decimal metron, but part of the
sexegasimal measure in vogue among nations
of antiquity, which had come down to us,
with some slight modification, in the English
| inch, and was not ut all as convenient, as
| flexible or rs valuable as the metric system
| of the French.
This being the last meeting of the society
this season, tho sentiment Of the members
present of thanks to Miss Ransom for her
earnest and successful efforts in originating
the society and for kindly placing at their
disposal her large and beautiful studio, was
unanimously expressed. A few among those
present were Rev. Drs. Bartlett, Patton, Sun
derland; Prof. Taylor Gen. Birney, Judge
Shallebarger, Prof. Abbie, Capt Ross Brown,
Mrs. Abbie, Mrs. Daniels, Miss Townsend,

SHOT BUT NOT KILLED.
The Result OF n Quarrel ut CntIett Station,
Va.-Escape OF the Shooter.

The Result OF n Quarrel ut CatIett Station,
Va.-Escape OF the Shooter.
A shooting afiray occurred Sunday evening
at Catlett's, a flag station on the Virginia Mid
land railway, near Warrenton and about forty
miles from Alexandria. Up to IL o'clock last
night no reliable account of the affair had
reached the latter place, nor was the general
fact known in Washington until late yester-
day afternoon. In Alexandria confused ru-
mors about the occurrence were in circulation
from which the following meager details were
derived:
The quarrel arose from some remarks cling
made traducing the character of woman
Short work was made between the beginning
and the end of the affair. The traducing was
speedily followed by the shooting. The per-
son shot Is named Hepland, tho one doing
the shooting is named Colvin. Immediately
after the tragedy Colvin, it is said, took tho
first train north, intending TO como to Wash
ington, While. on the train he became ap-
prehensive that the affair had been tele-
graphed to tins city, and that in consequence
officers were waiting for him at the depot
Just before the train arrived in the city he
jumped Off and escaped.
Against the account of Colvin is placed the
statement of tho conductor of the south
ward bound train from Alexandria, which left
that city at IL p. IN. Sunday. He says Colvin
attempted 10 board his train at Accotink
bridge, thirteen miles south Of Alexandria,
but failed TO got aboard, as the train was go-
ing fast and does not stop at that point. 1t
is thought the conductor was mistaken in the
man.
The latest report from Catlott's is that the
man shot was still alive, but in a very dan
gerous condition.

Relief for the Cyclone Sufferers.
To Me Editor.

In view of the terrible loss of life and
destruction of whole towns by the cyclone, as
telegraphed from Mississippi, allow me to
suggest that we meet at the Ebbitt house at
l2 a. m. tomorrow to consider such relief
measures as the few Mississippians now in
the city may deem advisable.
l have lived among these people for thirty
five years and / know them we'll. Most of
them are poor, struggling to live, and by an
act of God afflicted, heartbroken, and home
less.
The cyclone, so far as heard from, reached
over 200 miles. Much suffering is entailed
necessarily all along the track of the storm.
The generous response from all over the
country in time of the yellow fever and floods
of the Mississippi river united more hearts in
love for our whole country than all the acts
of the American people for twenty-five years
past. Love begets love-
1t pains me to have to appeal again for our
people, but the highest wisdom and motives
Of n common humanity prompts the plea.
Very respectfully,
GEORGE ]. MORTIMER.

The grand depot of John Wanamaker,

the establishment prove its popularity.

Wananaker is unrivalled, his adver-
tiSing indicates his foresight, and the
