FEBRUARY 20. 1899.
1t is fitting that q college whose charter
inculcates love OF liberty and the principles
that inspired America in Revolutionary days
should celebrate the Odd OF February; and
Notwithstanding an elght-inch snow Vt Was q
delightful holiday for Ham den-Sidney boys.
In the evening the PhilanihrOplc and
Union Societies held their annual joint cele.
bration. The college halls were crowded.
Among the visitors were Miss Bessie Car
riugton. OF Richmond; Miss Lucy Kemper,

the Female Normal College In Farmville.

grace.
The programme was as follows; Prayer

that bill Of like character was before the

Of the obe described was ap. TO maze slow

the circumstances. there appears 10 be no
question that the movement for the MADISON
statue was popular, and that the bill would
have passed bat for the war between the
states.

Mr.. WILLIAM CARL BROWNE has 10 bis
portrait OF Mayor j.. TAYLOR ELLYsON
achieved another wonderful success botn as
regards likeness and artistic execution.
The example, which Is In Oil, IL character
istc OF the subject in tone. expression, and
pose. The bust almost stands out from the
canvas, so skiiuly are manipulated the
effects OF the background. The head is
turned so as to give full tbree-quarter face
aud suggests Mr.. ELLYs0S as he may be
seen any day on the streets when he has
been suddenly stopped TO answer question.
The modelling is bold and confident, and
the expression OF abstraction and serious
ness--not to say ssdness-which is almost
habitual with Mr.. ELLYsON aud initiates
against him with strangers, though present,
Is relieved by the clear, appreciative sparkle
In the eye and the light that seems to be the
basis Of the rather subdued flesh tints. The
handling Of the hair Is especially noticeable
aud the texture OF the drspery Is most faith
fully portrayed. The portrait Is on exh Ibi'
ton at LEFTwTcH's.

Whether the House OF Representatives
shall meet In extra session or not about the
Oh OF March, the Senate will be In session to
confirm the nominations Of Cabinet officers
that will then be cent to that body by the
President. The reelection OF Mr.. kESSA
leaves the Republicans majority OF only
two In the Senate, including the newlJ-ap-
pointed Senator from New Hampshire, Hon.
GILMAN MARsToN.
But Is MIR. MAEsroN entitled 10 seat
Tor eighty or ninety years after the ratih-
cation OF the Federal Constitution no per.
son appointed 3 senator under the cireum-
stances under which he was appointed could
have been seated. Why not? Because 1t
was held that vacancy oceasioned by the
expiration OF term was not vacancy that
ehappenedp to occur. The constitutional
provision Is as follows;
"If vacancies happen by resignation or
otherwise duriug the recess OF the Legtslk-
lure OF any State the Executive thereof may
make temporary appointments" &c.
There are two questions Involved ia this
case. First, did this yscaucy happen within
the meaning OF the word "hsppen" as 1t Is
Used IN the Constitution Secoad, was there
Q vacancy at sll at tne time the appointments
was NADER 10 other words, ought not The
Governor OF New Hampshire to have waited
ontil the vacancy bsppeaedi His right 10
oppoint does not accrue until there Is q va
tsncy, and there was no vacancy when be
appointed Mr.. MANSION. There will be no
vscsacy until after the 4th Of March. There IL
no such limitation upon tue power Of q State
legislature to elec; senators; aud the vari-
ems State legislatures ALWAYS cleo, before a
vacancy happens. But Governor has no
Sish, 70 appoint until vacancy has actually
happened.
