An Appropriate and Happy selection.

The 18th Of June next will be the one
hundredth anniversary of the delivery
Of the first diplomas at old Liberty-Hall
Academy, now Washington and Lee
University. The authorities Of the
University propose to celebrate the CEN
tennial with imposing ceremonies. A
feature of the day will be an oration,
and at night there will be a grand ban
quet, to which the alumni from all over
the country will be invited. Rev. Dr..
Hoge, Of this city, has been asked by
the Centennial Committee to deliver the
oration, and yesterday informed the
president Of tine Richmond Alumni AS
sociation that he would accept. Aside
from the fact that this guarantees an
grafton worthy Of the occasion, the
selection Of DR.. Hoge by the commit
tee is peculiarly appropriate and
happy. His grandfather, Rev. Moses
Hoge, ID. d., received his early
education at Liberty Hall; was
among those who were given de-
grees in 1885, and his name has always
been looked upon by the alumni as a
central jewel in the diadem of alma
mater. There is everything in the
memories clustering around the institu-
tiOn to inspire DR.. Hoge to meet the
full measure of his great power as an
orator.

Katie than with the coquette Maud
Anthony. Some said twas his wife:
| perhaps he had married in foreign
land. Some said no; Mrs. Lee had
lsaid only to-day that Wilkes was
coming home unmarried.
And SO, while all wondered, no one
knew. Katie's wandering little heart
sank still lower as she saw what care
and attention the young man be-
slowed upon his companion. Twas
well her face was concealed beneath
the simple milk-maid's dress; other
wise some might have said she still
cared for him.
And, think you, this verdict would
have been wrong? l very much sur.
mise it would not.
The mask seemed not to have any
eyes or ears for anything save the
lady beside him. And lower and low
er sank Katie's poor little heart as
the evening wore on, and still Wilkes
made no effort to distinguish her
from among the crowd. At last, when
she could constrain herself no longer,
she quietly slipped away from the
throng and went out into the moonlit
garden and wept alone in a seat UNI
der the trees.
A long time she sat thus, when, with
the thought that she would bemissed,
she started up.
A hand was laid gently on her arm
"Stay a moment, Katie. want to
speak with you a moment"
Twas Wilkes Lees voice, and Katie
struggled to get from the grasp that
detained her.
"Katie, I heard what you said that
day under the elms; did you mean
it?"
His warm breath touched her face.
"No, Wilkes, l did not, 1 was pro.
voked,' came faltering, hesitatingly,
from Katie's rosy lips. What if, after
all, he had been true to her? She
could not help thinking of it.
"And you love mestill?"
II have always loved you, Wilkes"
11When you own up thatyou arede-
feated, Katie?"
"But what of that lady who is with
you? She is your
"Mother, my darling; and youareto
be my wife?"
Suffice to say a few days after there
was wedding somewhere, and some
one, which means Katie, was married
to some one, which means Wilkes Lee,
the one who SO unwillmgly became
once a participation in Katie's defeat.
