Special TO the State Chronicle
CHAPEL HILL, May 3O.-The com.
mencement at the University began
Sunday with the!baccalaureate sermon
by DIR. ]. w. Carter, pastor of the
First Baptist church of Raleigh. The
services were held in Gerard hall.
The ministers of all denominations
united in the service. The singing
was beautifully done by the Univer-
sity Glee Club. DR.. Carter's text
was 'Truth shall spring out of the
earth and Righteousness shall look
down from Heaven" The first half
OF the sermon was learned and wise
and broad discussion of the question
"what is TRUTH" The second
half was an eloquent and
touching appeal for righteousness.
The sermon lasted one hour and ten
minutes, and it was listened to with
wrapt attention. The students were
greatly impressed with its power, its
sweetness and its breadth. They will
have it printed.
Many people are here. Gen. Rufus
Barringer, of Charlotte, arrived to-
day. He graduated fifty years ago.
Hon. Harris Taylor, author of the
Constitutional History of England and
of the United States, also came today.
He is University man and is the
most eminent writer in the South to.
day Hundreds of people arrived at
noon and tonight. Col. Waddell to.
morrow speaks on the life and services
OF Col. William L. Saunders. The
air is fresh and cool. Fine showers
have laid the dust and prepared the

ROCHESTER,, N. Y, May 3O.-The
great event OF today was the unveiline
OF the soldiers and sailors monument
MS was the event which the president
mad come from Washington to witness
and which had drawn such a distin-
gulshed crowd to Rochester from all
parts OF the State. The monument is
tall column of solid granite nine feet
nigh resting on granite base and car
rylng life sized statue of Lincoln.
The whole monument is forty-three
feet high. On each corner of
the base is statue representing some
branch of the naval or military SER
vice. On the four sides of the base
are bronze pictures in bas-relief present
ing war scenes. The monument was
planned eleven years ago. Its total
cost has been $4,000. At 2 o'clock
the president, secretary Noble, Gov.
Flower, and his staff, and other dis
tlnguished guests were escorted to the
reviewing stand and as the procession
which was to celebrate the unyeilino
OF the monument passed by, t he presi.
dent stood with barred head. After
the review the president and party
were driven to Washington square
where the monument stands. His
arrival was greeted with prolonged
cheers. General Reynolds called
the assembly to order soon
after three o'clock, and in
troduced Rev. L. T. Foote, who de-
livered an invocation. The bands
which had participated in the parade
then played the "StarSpangle Banner"
AT the signal the young ladies stand
Ing at the base of the monument
pulled the chord that released the
drapery of the statue and it floated to
the ground, leaving the column re-
vealed in all its beauty. Cheer after
cheer went up from the vast assem-
blage and the band struck up Rich
berg's American hymn. When the
tumult had subsided DR.. Davis D.
Hill, president of the university of
Rochester, was presented to the audi
ence and delivered the Grafton. Samuel
ii. Lowe, of Rochester, was then in-
troduced to read the poem of the day.
The memorial choir, under Prof. II.
b. Wilkins, sang Mendelssohn's
''Fadeless be their glory" amid pro-
found silence. General Reynolds
then introduced President Harrison.
who spoke at some length. Gov.
Flower also spoke. Mr.. G. R.
Parsons then presented the monument
to the care and keeping OF the city.
Mayor Curran responded, accepting
the monument for the city. The ben
ediction was then pronounced by Rev.
Asa SAKE.

An Appeal to the Governor.


COLUMBIA, S. c., May 3O.-Gov.
Tlllman today received the following
telegram, signed by two prominent
citizens of Laurens county, the home
of Senator Irby: "On Friday night
last, May q, negro man, Dave Storr
by name, being under arrest for larceny
was taken from officers by mob and
lynched, as we believe. The body has
not been found, but evidences of lynch
ing we're plain. No investigation has
been made by any officer of the law.
We, as law-abiding citizens, ask you
to have the matter investigated at
once. This occurred in half a mile
of Werna postoffice, Sullivan township,
Laurens county, S. c." The governor
has wired for further particulars.
There has evidently been some neglect
OF duty on the part of the trial justice
nearest the scene, for the governor
says that otherwise he should have re.
ported the matter long ago.
