COMMENTS OF The PRESS.
The Life and Character of MIR. Ellyson as
Seen by His Fellow-Journslists.
lPetorsburg IhdeE-Appeal, 25lhl


Petersburg Indsr-Appeal, 95,hJ
Mr.. Henry X. Eliyson, one of the pro-
priotors OF the RICHMOND DISPATCH, and
the head Of tho business department OF
that paper, died suddenly at his resi-
dence in Richmond yesterday morning.
He was one OF the best-equipped news
paper-men in the State, thoroughly de-
voted to the business, and master of all its
details. His death recalls 10 mind a
tribute paid to him by his late partner,
MIR. Cawnrdin, in few remarks before
the Virginia Press Association some years
ago. Responding TO toast to
the DIsPATcH, Mr.. Cowardin said
that while it fell 10 him TO conduct
the editorial department there was a
greater than he, and that the brains and
genius Of the paper centred in his friend
and associate who presided over the
counting room. 1t was sincere and
generous tribute and well deserved. In
MIR. Ellysons death the State loses IN
upright and useful citizen, the Church
pure and consistent member, and Nlr-
ginia journalism a worker that has ele-
waited and advanced its standard, and who
has throughout his career been guide
and an example worthy OF emulation.
He rests In peace.

Yesterday, in Richmond, died at the
age OF sixty six. Mr.. Henry h. Ellyson,
A prominent and able Virginian. noble,
generous man. de was one Of tho
founders Of the RICHMOND DISPATCH, the
other being the elder Mr.. Cowardin, who
died few years ago full of honor.
The days that tried the souls Of men
found Mr.. Ellyson ready to meet his
full duty as citizen. lie has always
been modest, unassuming, courageous,
willing to accept responsibility, never
seeking distinction. He was president
Of the Southern Press Association sew
eral terms and one OF the most con-
sentative and successful nevspaper-men
in the South. He was up to his death
prominent layman OF the Baptist Church.
foremost in its councils, always o grace

and enthusiastically agreeable to
young men, who always found in him

Mr.. Ellyson frequently visited Nor
folk, and lie loved to rest at Old Point,
where he WAS often to be found. When
he travelled, one or more OF his grand
daughters, of whom he was very fond,
usually accompanied him. Genial,
companionsble, wise, this excellent Vr-

spested and beloved. May his memory
never wither in the hearts OF his fellow

Another victory is added to the list OF
those won by them in fierce football
contests.
Their team met the Trinity College
club OF North Carolina on Island Park
yesterday afternoon, and in game last
ing from little after 3 o'clock until
dark aud characterized by unusually
hard PLAYING came out victors and there
by gained undisputed title to the cham
pionship Of the South.
The University team were accom-
panied by about seventy-iive OF their
brother students.
The Trinity collesians, whose alma
Mater rs about fifteen milesfrom Green's
boro,, n. c., had only three in the party
besides the players and their substi-
tutes.
BLUE AND YELLOW.
All day long the University colors--
blue aud yellow-were to be seen on
every hand-on walking sticks on coats
on dress fronts, on horses heads, and,
in fact. pretty much everywhere that
piece of ribbon could be fastened.
The college cry and the tin horn were
heard in every quarter.
The plain blue OF Trinity did not have
many wearers, bat the boys from the
Old North State were confident that they
would make things interesting for their
Virginia friends.
BY 3 o'clock there was q good-sized
crowd on the grounds at Mayos Island.
This was composed largely Of University
students and alumni Of that institution.
The 'Varsity's friends grouped them
selves on the left-hand side of the field
and those of Trinity on the right
Whenever the teams msde a good play
their friends would rush around them
and all the policemen present were una
BILE to keep them back.
THEY YELLED.
When there was any sign OF weakness
on the part OF the Vireinians their
hackers would give the University yell
to reassure them.
The Richmond College boys cheered
loudly for the Trinity people, which dis
gruntled the Varsity people no little.
A laughable incident of the evening
was tho interest manifested by student
of the University in the playing OF his
comrades. The gentleman in question
is six feet six inches in height, and the
personiiication of good nature. He was
assisting the police to keep the crowd
back, but became 80 excited that time
aud again ne was in front Of all. Turn
