Officers AdmOnfshe ed.

The report of the court Of inquiry
into the circumstances attending the
accidental wounding of Lieut.. John f. Col
Inns Of the Mohican while that vessel was
cruising in Bering sea has just been made
public. The court finds that Ensign Chas. F.
Hughes hurriedly turned in the revolvers
after target practice end that First Lieut..
Lewis c. Lucas, marine corps, inspected the
weapons vCIy hurriedly. 1t was while doing
this that one of the revolvers was discharg-
ed, the ball passing through bulkhead and
Wounding Lieut.. Collins in the arm. The
court finds that Ensign Hughes was negli-
gent In failing to personally eXami-.e the re-
volvers, and that Lieut.. Lucas was careless
In handling them. Further judicial proceed
iEgs are unnecessary because of the alb
sence of intent to do wrong, but the court
recommended that the two officers be for
mally admonished by the Navy Department,
and their attention be called to their care

tary Herbert.

THE THEATER HAT.
Some Ways Suggested of AfOrdin &
Relief From It's Annoyance.


Relief From It's Annoyance.
Inventive genius has discovered a good
many ways to surmount the Tall Hat Griev-
ance, any one of which will do away with
all the mental and physical suffering which
the T. H. G. every day and night causes
Some suggestions are given in The Stars
cartoon today. A real nice hat, built on a
solid structure of thick buckram and velvet,
might, by an ingenious arrangement of
clamps, hold in place and at just the right
focus small telescope, SO that any tndi-
vidual seated behind 1t could see the show
beautifully. The mirror arrangement is
another good scheme. 1t is already used on
private residences now, with good effect, to
know who comes to your neighbors' doors,
and what they wear. The spiral spring be-
tween the lady's head and hat, or the other
jack-in-t the-box arrangement of springs un-
der the hapless man behind the big hat,
are both such clever ways of elevating the
stage, that he who runs may see. No doubt
but that the best way of getting rid Of the
hat Is TO do like the real angel-keep II in
your lap-if you have not left it home.
"LouiSe's, Experience.
To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
The Star should certainly be congratu-
lated and supported by all right-minded
people. regardless of age, sex or previous
condition of he&dgear, in its valiant fight
a feather in its cap" and 1t may justly
plume ITSELF" and, though but yet wo-
man." am with The Star and against my
misguided sisters in the contention. Set
ting to one side the question of wearing
for our own supposed adornment anything
that so seriously interferes with the COM
fort and enjoyment of others, / venture
to advance the argument, perhaps no less
elfectual to the feminine mind, that the
large hat so fetching and becoming by
day is just the reverse under the condi-
tions Of illumination prevalent in the aver
age play house. The graceful Gains
borough, which Is the great grandmother of
all the big hats, is thing of beauty (and
can cost forty dollars) with its appropriate
environment of open air, difused sunshine,
and the charming background of an En-
glish garden. But with the heavy shadows
of the electric light gathered beneath its
outrageous brim, the fairest and freshest
face takes on age and ugliness. Il almost

ters to my mode of thinking) In short,

may be, out of doors and by daylight it is
as bad FORM" and, worse yet, unbe-

on the street or diamonds at breakfast.
l attended the theater one evening this
week, when there was clever play and
full house. We were little late, and as
we came down the aisle, the orchestra,
with its astounding array of wildly tossing
plumage looked like nothing SO much as a
free fight on an ostrich farm, with here
and there the ivory gleam of front-row
bald-head, as though some affrighted female
bird had mislaid an egg In the melee.
We were seated, and, 10! and behold! or
rather so high that you could not possibly
behold-right in front of US arose what

MIR. HALL on THE EpOLITIC.1L STU
ALTON.

Mr.. Editor: | beg the privilege of
offering through your paper few
suggestions 10 lh)se Conservatives in
the county who are contemplating al
independent movement. They com
plain that they hcve been virtually dis
fran :hised by the action Of the Re
formers in eliminating uicir excess Of
candidates by plan that is as near .
primary as it is prscticab]et 10 have and
do Justice to the lower counties Of the
Sto,e. The Conservatives were no
more distranchised ltaa minoriGies
alwavs ale. and The only difference
between them, The Conservatives, and
minoriies generally, is tie CcnserVa-
tives knew or thought they knew thai
they were in the minority and refused
to put up their candidates. The men
who voted for the defeated candidates
in the late general primary were as
much disfr4Dchised as the Conserva-
tives, ana none know it better than
those who claim they were dislran-
chised.
We wish TO prcsen! the following
reason why the Conservatives should
not split and put up SET Of Candidates
for the general election. Prominent
Conservatives told rs that they Lad
conversed with other prominent Con-
servatlves and the desilc TO harmonizo
seemed 10 he petty general, provided
We called off tie Reform Convention.
Acting on that We did what we could
to call off the convention, and should
not be blamed because the rest of :he
counties in the State acted differently.
We claim further that Tic Conserva-
tives Of the county should show the
same desire for unity by resisting, in
the county at least, every tfort to put
out q separate ticket unless they had
done it at the general primary. In
that way and that way only can they
prove their good faith. OF course Te
will not expect them 10 rule The State,
but then ;hey can at least manage the
county. VI. 5. U,LL.

neither was due in even remote sense
to the location of the school.
No better rule has been yet devised
than "Judoe a tree by its fruits" The
recent gradu. .tcs of South Carolina
College are making their marks. Men
but few years out Of college arc
drawing attention to themselves by
their merit and by the thoroughneSS of
their training, and they are scattered
to the four winds of earth and in all
the varied pursuits of modern life.
Let US take the single group of "Col-
lege Professors''-not teachers in acadc-
mics and high schools, but professors
in colleges Of standing. We will find
such men as Davidson, McBryde,
Earle, Sims, SILVER, Cathcart profes-
sors of Chemistry, Duffie professor of
Pharmacy, McKissick professor Of
electri> ity, Houston professor of po-
i litical economy. Barnwell professor
Of English, Pickle professor of Bac-
teriology, Pritchard professor Of
Mathematics and Bailey professor Of
Pedagogy; we find them filling chairs
in such schools as the University of
California, the University Of Nebraska, :,
the University of Texas. How many
others there may be of whom | have
not kept track l cannot say. This list
is made from memory and from the
circle of my personal friends. These
are all young men, none of whom has
| been out Of college for more than ten
years. 4 study of the careers of those
graduates who have entered other
callings will give equally gratifying
results.
Enter South Carolina College if you
can Pursue full course if You can.
Take shorter course if that only be
possible. You will never regret your
,natriculatiun. have no personal
connection with the college, no inter
est in it other than that cf patriotism,
an appreciation of what it has done
for me and for others of my genera
