THE ROHANTIC SCHOOL.
Professor Boatwright's Lecture on German
and French Authors.

THE Romantic School" was the sub
iect OF Professor Boatwrights lecture. de-
livered last evening at Richmond College
This was the seventh lecture In the uni
versity extension course. which for the
past several weeks has furnished a lite
rarv feast to those who have from time
to time attended.
These lectures have been exceedingly
interesting and instructive. They have
had a fine presentation by the popular
young professor OF the school of modern
languages.
Having spent some time in the univer-
stiles OF France and Germany and hav-
ing travelled extensively IN Europe, he
has visited most OF the places. and lin
gered amid many of the associations with
which the literature Of the French and
Germans are identified.
Travel and observation are appreciable
sources OF information. and add much to
knowledge in general. These lectures
have abounded In vivid representation OF
many points OF historic interest beyond
the deep.
The lecture last evening had an appro-
pirate reference to journey down the
Rhine which the lecturer enjoyed last
summer. and recalled as pleasant cpl
sode in memory.
There was mention Of the German and
French Romanticsms. and the principles
OF both contrasted and discussed. Several
prominent selections were read.
The German writer's Schlegel Hard
enberg. Tieck and INLAND with some Of
their leading works were mentioned. They
lived in the latter part OF the eighteenth
and the early part Of the nineteenth CEN
turtles. and gave considerable impetus TO
the literature OF their day. Men are not
dead who leave abiding works.
The last lecture in this interesting Sc
ries will be given next Tuesday evening.
Ii will. no doubt. equal i'm excellence
any Of the others. and give additional
RIimpses into the absorbing theme of
German literature. The subject is "Heine
and the Modern Era"

In The Times special report Of financial

holders was held at the offices Of the COM

A Years Prosperity.
Richmond, Va, Fe
To Our Stockholders:

10 Our SlpChHolutiS.
The Board OF Directors OF the United
Banking and Building Company congratu-
lates the stockholders on the success the
company has attained during the past
year Throughout the territory prini-
pally occupied by the company. 1892 was
an exceptionally dull year in all branches
OF business, and was a year OF liquidation
rather than Of investment. Yet, notwi. h.
standing these adverse influences, which
had a tendency 10 have depressing effect
on investments Of almost every character,
the business OF the company has enjoyed
steady and healthy growth, our install
ment stock having increased 30 per cent.
and our paid-up stock leo per cent. after
having deducted all stock six months in
arrears prior to December 3ist. The com
pany has earned IA per cent. for its con-
tlnuing stockholders.
Despite the fact that general business
is still in a state of inactivity, the year
1888 opens most auspiciously for our COM
pany. the subscriptions to it's stock hav-
ing increased more than 900 shares dur
ing January and February. The company
was never IN a more prosperous condition
than at present, and its future outlook
was never brighter. and we can safely pre-
dict that the increase during the balance
OF this year will be in equal ratio.
II is a gratifying fact TO note that with
drawals have been comparatively light
during the past year. and this we cOnsii n
exceptionally good evidence that the bust
ness of the company is being maintain ri
on a sound and healthy basis The loans
OF the company are in excellent shape
and the security ample and frst-class in
every case. All applications for withdraw
ais have been paid and all loans passed
on to date
The Board Of Directors again takes &C
casion to specially recommend TO invest
ors the paid-up. Understanding stock OF
the company, which is sold at $50 per
share. on the cost Of this stock an an
nual interest Of per cent, payable semi
annually (on the list days of January ard
july, is paid. The stock also participates
equally with the instalment stock in the
profits Of their business. and at its ma
turity is redeemed by the company at
500 per share. regardless Of the interest
already paid the holder thereof
Considering the absolute safety and Sc
curity Of an investment in the stock OF
this company, combined with the fact
that the most profitable agencies known
are employed to yield the stakeholder
large returns on his investment. the Board
of Directors urges all far-sighted investors
10 subscribe 20 either paid-up or install
ment stock before the close Of 1898
