COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES AT THE
WEsT VIRGINIA UNIvERsITY.-The
West Virginia University commence
ment exercises began Saturday night,
with the public moot court trial. La
this case Miss Margaret Curtis
Washington sued Richard Henry
Lee fof~breach of promise, assessing
the damages at $500. 900. The farce
was very amusing. The reading of
love letters and the production of
other ridiculous testimony set the
crowd in uproars of laughter. The
speeches were all very cleyerly done
and the trial was voted a success.
The same evening the report Of
President Goodnight, made TO the
board OF regents of the University
Of West Virginia, was lengthy
document, covering the work OF the
University during the past year, and
its needs to make it more efficient in
the future. Sunday morning Rev.
Dir. j. S. Ramsey, OF New York,
preached a magnificent sermon to
the graduating classes in commence
ment hall. On Monday afternoon
the company competitive drill was
given on the campus before good
crowd. The drill was splendidly exc
cuted by both companies. The cap
tain Of A company is E. NJ. Pearcy
and B company w. r. d. Standi-
ford. There is always an exciting
rivalry between the two for the hon.
or of carrying the colors, which is
the object OF this contest. The judges
were DR.. j. V. Hsrtigan. Capt.
Macker Babb, of the West Virginia
National Guard, and Col. Clarence
Smith. The colors were given to
company A. At the meeting of the
regents on Tuesday Prof. D. j. Bar
ton was elected assistant in the pre-
paratory department. An order was
also passed taking athletics out of
the control of the students and plac-
ing them in the hands of an athletic
faculty composed ofDr. Goodnight,
the eommandant of the cadets, and
DR.. j. w. Hartigan, instructor in
physical training. At night Dr.. and
Mrs. J. A. Myers gave o reception
in honor of Governor and Mrs. w.
A. MaeCorkle, who came to attend
the commencement. In the individ-
ual competitive drill Cadet Laugh
lin won the highest honors and was
presented by Regent Geo. F. Evans
with a beautiful gold medal.

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN. The
past week opened with temperatures
slightly below the normal. The
cool weather continued but two days
and was followed by warm, sultry
weather which continued through
the week. The weeks rainfall was
above the normal in nearly all parts
of the state. Occurring chiefly as
thunder storms, they were heavy in
many localities, aud considerable
damage was reported. In Hamp-
shire county hailstorm week before
last 50 badly destroyed wheat fields
in its path that they were ploughed
up aud put in corn. Less than the
usual amount OF sunshine was re-
ceiyed during the week. The wealth
er has been very favorable to the
growth Of all crops and reports show
that they are in ahighly satisfactory
condition, excepting the wheat crop.
This crop is very irregular and while
many correspondents say the fields
look well and are promising. as
many other reports that the fields in
their neighborhood are thin and
short. The crop is beginning to
ripen and harvesting viii probably
occur considerably earlier than
usual. The corn crop is everywhere
in good condition and growing fast.
Other grain crops, grass and gar
dens continue in reasonably good
condition. Vegetables and berries
are abundant. Fewer reports we're
made this week Of apples falling
from the trees.

HOME.

HOME.
The prince rides up to the palace gates
And his eyes with tears are dim,
For he thinks ofthe beggar maiden sweet
Who may never wed with him.
For home is where the heart is,
In dwelling great or small,
And there's many splendid palace
That's never home at ali.
The yoeman comes to his little cot
With a song when the day is done,
For his dearie is standing in the door
And his children to meet him run.
For home is where the heart is,
In dwelling great or small,
And there's many stately mansion
That's never a home at all.
Could but live with my own sweetheart
In hut with a sanded floor,
I'd be richer far than loyeless man
With fame and golden store.
For home is where the heart is,
In dwelling great or small,
And cottage lighted by lovelight
Is the dearest home OF all.
