The air of decorum and discipline
which usually prevails at the university
was dispelled yesterday morning, and,
for short time, gave place to wild
shilarity. The occasion was the celebra-
ton of the fusion of the Theta Phi fra
ternity into the new chapter of the Psi
Epsilon. As is the custom, the boys
evidenced their high spirits by boune-

eentribute to their sport. Even Profs.

UNDERGROUND SEWERAGE.

THE TIMES lays before its readers this
morning an entirely new version of the
sewerage question and one that will
bear careful study.
If q scientific investigation proves the
correctness of these facts, the city will
find its expenditures for sewer outlets
cavern and underground stream flowing
beneath Roanoke, it is a very easy mat
ter to determine how much sewerage
this water-flow would carry off.
The matter should be very thoroughly
investigated and experiments tried
which would prove whether or not we
have such an underground current and
where it leads to.

THE JACKSON STATUE

The statue to the memory Of Stone
wall Jackson will be unveiled in Lex
ington to-day. The occasion will be 4
memorable one. The surviving rank
and file of the dead Confedcracy will be
there to perform tho last ceremonies
for perpetuating the memory of a great
warrior.
This day will add another treasure to
the history of the Mother of States and
statesmen and great leaders in every
walk of life, history that is already
rich with the records of the deeds of
noble men.
The names Of many illustrious Vir-
ginians will live as long as men have
liberty and craftsmanship is the holm
that guides the ship of State. The
name OF Jackson will not be forgotten
as long as warfare is remembered and
his wonderful achievements will be an
interesting study for all future students
Of the science of war.
The imposing event at Lexington
to-day will be in keeping with the char
acter and life of one of the greatest
military leaders of modern times.

THE FIGURES TO REMAIN.
The ST. Paul's Cathedral Reredos Case
Finally Decided.

The ST. Paul's Cathedral Reredos Case
Finally Decided.
LONDON, July 20.-lSpecial] In tho
court of appeals to-day the famous St.
Pauls cathedral reredos case was dis
missed with costs against the appel
lants. This case was the appeal of
"Alcroft and Others" against a decision
of the Bishop Of London and has been
subject Of interest to churchmen and
others since the litigation began in
1888.
The question raised was as to the
legality of the figures in the reredos or
wall at the back of the altar of st. Paul's
Cathedral, the contention OF the appel
ants being that the sculptured figures Of
our Saviour and the Virgin Mary in
reredos we're calculated to encourage
superstition and to suggest unlawful
ideas of devotion. The decision sustains
the bishop, who held that this conten-
ton was not we'll founded. and so in
sures the rentention of the figures on
the rcredoS.

REPEAL. THE LAW.

At the meeting Of the City Council
last night the absurd law prohibiting
the sale of cigars anHAobacco on Sun
day was discussed, but no action was
taken to remedy the evil except to refer
tho matter to the next meeting of Coun-
ellis. Still the subject has received
start and when the situation is thor
oughly discussed there is no doubt what
the action of Roanoke will be. This
Gown is no longer a provincial settle
ment, but free, liberal and progressive
city.
One Of the worst blows that could he
struck to the prosperity OF Roanoke
would be to have the inEr ,ssion go to
the world that the irrational, illogical
and Puritanical blue laws arc to be en-
forced in this city. The workingman's
day of rest is Sunday, and no man living
has right to deprive him of his rest
and pleasure so long as those do not con.
flict with the equal rights Of every other
individual to the same enjoyment.
The history Of every blue law town il
America is tho history of town dead
beyond resurrection. The history O
every state in America which ha.
adopted prohibitory and extreme re
strictive legislation is the history of
state from which enterprise is depart
ing. TO carry the law to it's full alb
surdity of extreme, would be to prohi
hit nauc hove from ca11ip0 Tuu V,,u..
