L. Wilson, as president of Richmond
College, says: although the pres

fers field of usefulness broad enough
to satisfy the ambitions of most men
there is no good reason why the ener-

embodied in Congressman Wilson, of
West Virginia, should be confined to
the direction of an institution of
learning. The country needs the SER
vice of such men as Mr.. Wilson in her
halls of Legislation. His rightfuI

commanding than that which has
been issued TO Mr.. Wilson by the
American people can be put forth by
any lesser interest.

1t. Lewis Nixon, the young archi-
tect to whose brain and untiring en-
ergy was due the success of the con-
struction and recent launching of the
three million dollar ship, the armored
cruiser New York, at Philadelphia, is
a relative of our townsman Mr.. J.
B.. McElroy. He was born at Lees
burg, Loudoun county, Va, and on
the 21st of June, 1873, in his
eighteenth year, he was appointed as
a midshipman to the Naval Academy
at Annapolis, Md. Four years later
he stood first in a remarkably brill
liant class. About this time, through
the courtesy of the English govern
ment, the United States was allowed
the privilege of sending two of her
most promising young officers to pur-
sue postgraduate course in higher
mathematics. and ship building at the.
Royal Naval College. Ensign Nixon
was one of the two selected to repre-
sent our government at this the most
advanced school in the world, and
after a three years course lie won.
the honors of his class. After this
he was instructed By our government
to- visit all the great shipbuilding
yards Of Europe. in order that he
might become as practical in his pro-
fession as he had shown himself the
oretical. When Secretary Tracy de-
cided to have constructed the most
formidable battle-ships' of modern
times, Chief Constructor Wilson i'm
mediatelY ordered 1t. Nixon to Wash
