Secretary Roosevelt arrived this morning.
accompanied by his naval aide, Lieut.
Sharp, ana boarding the Dolphin, which
arrived yesterday. sailed at once to join
Admiral Sicard's North Atlantic squad
ron, on the southern drill grounds.
The purpose of the visit of the assist
ant Secretary of the Navy to The squad
ron is to ASCERTAIN by personal observa-
ton just what progress has been made
during the summer season in the task set
Admiral Sicard of getting together a small
but powerful defensive fleet, and by close
dy of the varying qualities of the ships
composing the squadron bringing them to
lhe point that the could be used as a unit
against an enemy. The work is one of
great magnitude, particularly in view of
the fact that the ships are mostly new and
their maneuvering qualities not we'll
known. Moreover this class of work is
not familiar 10 Our naval officers, who
have only within recent years come into
possession of ships capable of being ma
neUvered according TO the modern stan
dards.
Admiral 1cards squadron is not large
comprising only eight ships, but these
are as fine vessels of their class as can
be found in any navy, and small as the
deet is. it is felt that it already consti-
tutes a most formidable weapon for de-
Tense. 1t might, however, be made more
num.e >ous, but this would not have &C,

cred cruisers, which. in actual battle,
would probably be sent to the rear, or in,
case of real war, would be under the
protection of the ironclads. AS the latter
are expected to bear the brunt of the
fighting, 1t was Admiral Scards idea 20
ascertain just what they were capable
of doing, how they steer and withstand
the sea, and then to train the personnei
Of the ships so that by signal they coula
sct as one ship in attack or defense.
All the vessesS of the squadron with
two exceptions, are regular battleships,
and these two, the New York and the
Brooklyn, are cruisers, so well protected
with armor belts and protective decks
and superior speed that they would make
a very good showing even against a bat
teship. The other vessels of the squad
ron are the Iowa, Indiana, Massachusetts,,
Maine. Texas and Puritan. Since last
Friday they have been lying on what is
known as drill ground about forty or fifty
miles east of the Chesapeake capes, and
far enough from the usual line of traffic
TO avoid the risk of disabling some coast
vessels by a chance shot from one of
their big guns.

Canal Bank Shot Into.
Augusta, Ga, Sept. 7.-To-night a ne
gro man and woman were shot in the
backs while walking together on the
river bank. Four buckshot entered the
womans back and the rest of the load en-,
tered the body of her companion. Both
are seriously wounded, the man danger
ously so.
viii Golphin and Mamie Wilson are the
names of the couple. They were strolline
In the moonlight on the bank of the river
when the murderous attack was made.
Neither of them saw who did the shoot
ing, and there Is no clue.
Some distance in front of them another
couple were strolling, and there is a sus-
picon on the part of some that the man
who shot the other couple meant to shoot
the ones IN front. 1t it said that the
girl IN front, whose name is Cain, was
with her companion against her father
command, and the theory is entertained
that old man Cain, who lives across the
river, in Hamburg, thought he was firing
on his daughter and a negro named Rob-
inson, whom he had forbidden her to go
with.
This is only surmise, however, and Cain
has not yet been arrested.

SCHOOL.
Important to Parents.


Few matters are of more Importance
than the selection of a school you wish to
attend or send your children, as such Sc
lection is likely TO involve consequences
that are lifelong. Such a step should not
be taken hastily. The best way is to see for
ones self or see some one who has seen.
To this end prospective students of Rich
mond's Business College are cordially in
Vited to visit the institution and see what
it is and what 1t does.
Many pupils who have not succeeded well
in other schools have here achieved re-
markabie success, much to their own graf
ifcation and that of their parents.
1t is well-known that the college course
OF study furnishes practical education of
great value to those who have either lack
ed or neglected early opportunities. and
who find their ignorance not only con-
slant source of humiliation, but block of
advancement
Owing to the growth of the college the
past two years the principal has found il
necessary to increase its facilities and to
that end it will occupy the entire third
floor and a portion of the second floor of
the present postoffice building, where each
department will have separate rooms and
