moved from office until their terms ex-
pired: said the medical profession had
special reasons for thankfulness that
truth was sustained and law respected
They day of doom was only postponed
however, as the political shylocks would
vet prey upon the helpless insane,
He did not care whether those who
dragged down these institutions were
Democrats, Republicans, Populists or
admixtures of all; he denounced it as
wrong and an outrage on the politically
dead The requisites of a good superin-
tendent were varied and they were seldom
found in one man. He said his blood
boiled at the spectacle presented of men
totally unfit for the positin, seeking to be
superintendent of our asylums, when
they were unfit to fill the positions they
sought He believed that superintend-
ents should remain In office so long as
they were capable of doing their best
work. He called on his brethren to hold
themselves aloof from the Graders in hui
man blood" and let those stand alone be-
fore Him who said "Veangeance is
mine" He then offered a resolution en-
bodying the substances Of his remarks.

Ingly endorsed by Drs. Weaver, Long and
Knox, and opposed gy Drs. OHagan,
Hines and Skies. The ground of the oppo-
sition to the resolution was that the
adoption of the same might put the soci-
ETY. in the attitude of interfering in mat
tiers political. Because of this view taken
of the matter by some Of the members,
DR.. Bahnson withdrew the resolution.
From the discussion it was very evident
that the plan to make the helpless insane
the football of greedy politicians met with
small favor at the hands Of the society.
The following are the members of the
State Board of Health elected by the
Medical Society: Drs. George G. Thomas,

COMMENCEMENT AT ELON.
Two Full Graduates and Five Graduates
in Special Studies.

Elon College, n. c., June 10.-(SpecialD
Elon College commencement began this
morning with prayer by Rev. ]. w. Car
ter. d. D.. of Raleigh
| Prof J. O. Atkinson, chairman of the
Faculty. announced that there were two
full graduates and FIVE who graduate in
special studies.
Miss Mamie Clements, of Wake coun-
ty. one of the graduates, read an essay
entitled civilizations Irresistible Man
date" which showed vigorous research
and thought in economic problems.
Misses Holland. Watkins, Clements
and Moring, graduates in music, rem
dered in truly artistic style 1.-The Grand
Valse de Concert" by Hoist.
Mr.. Wilbur Z. McCeenny delivered the
valedictory at the close of his Grafton on
1.-THE Great Need of Education in the
South He prefaced his remarks with
the statement that each age has its pc
culiar needs, and reviewed the condition
of things in our southland prior to the
war, when there were no public schools,
and few people educated thoroughly ex-
cept the sons of wealthy parents. He
traced the gradual development of educa
ional interests since the dark days of 90,
and said that while we have achieved
much there is still great need in the
South of scientific and technical educa-
ton. He spoke of the Virginia Military
Institute. the pioneer in the Southern
field. where pure and applied mathemat-
les and natural scinces were the special
studies, and referred in eloquent terms
to the faithful part its alumni played in
the service of the army of Northern
, Virginia
Prof. f. L. Moffitt. editor of The
Christian Sun, of Raleigh, presented the
Bibles to the graduates with some sound
practical advice, and said he thanked
God for the day when the Bible could be
owned and studied by the laity instead of
/ being chained in a monastery and Pc
rused only by priests, as in former days.
f! He said it as claimed by many that col
leges and higher institutions of learning
! are hotbeds of infidehty, which is I'M
true as far as Elon is concerned, for a
large majority of its students have been
Christians and last year % per cent of
them were members of some branch of
the church.
President Staley, in well chosen words
presented the diplomas and certificates,
after which Rev. DIR. Long, former presi-
dent of the college, pronounced the bene-
diction.
This afternoon at o'clock the Philo-
Logan Society held an interesting re-
union meetin.
At 5 O'Clock the Alumni Society held
it's annual meeting in the Y. M. G. A.
hall.
Tonight an excellent concert was given
and the usual social gathering took place.
The Lexington Symphony orchestra has
furnished excellent music for the occa
sion.
Many students and visitors left tonight
and nearly all others expect to leave in
the morning.
The commencement has been one OF the
most successful and enjoyable in the col
lege's history, and the large crowds OF
visitors entered heartily into the spirit of
the occasion.

Tuesday morning and it took six men

the mans insanity. lie had a spell
of insanity some years ago, at his
home in Garrett county, caused pre-
sumely by illness, but during the
past few years has been in very good
health. The unfortunate man is a

Sheriff Brown. He is still violent and

tuition

GRAND JURY REPORT.

On Tuesday morning the grand
Jury finished its laborsand submitted
the following report to the court,
whereupon the body was discharged
from further survice:
TO the Honorable, the Judges of the
Circuit Court for Garrett county:
The grand jury for the September
term, 1897, Of said court, having com
pleted the work and made investiga-
ton OF all charges brought to their
attention beg leave to make the fol-
lowing report and ask to be dis
charged.
In the performance of our duty we
have examined one hundred and thlr-
ty-five witnesses, and have presented
for prosecution all cases, that in our
opinion the public good and welfare
of the county required to be present
ed, and having dismissed and ignored
such matters as were not of sufficient
importance to call attention to. In
the performance of this duty we have
returned forty presentments and true
bills were returned on thirtythree
indictments.
We have examined the records in
| the various offices and find them well
and neatly kept and the treasurer's
books, so far as our time permitted
an examination not only appeared
well kept but all public funds had
been correctly entered and accounted
for.
We also examined the courthouse
and Jail buildings and found them in
as good condition as their construc-
! ton will admit of.
The Jail was clean and well kept,
but we consider it very insecure, and
its exposed condition offers every OPP
portunity to persons on the outside
to aid the escape of the inmates. An
improvement has been made in the
sanitary condition of the Jail and
court house since the last grand jury
was in session, by the removal of the
stable and the erection of new water
closets but we would renew the recon-
mendation that some steps be taken
to make the Jail more secure, but VIC
do not advise the expediture of much
money on the present building, as We
consider it false economy to do so.
All of which is respectfully sub
mitted.

SAY IT IS ILLEGAL INSURANCE.
Pennsylvania Authorities Declare AGainst tho
Policies or the Philadelphia Underwriters.

Pennsylvania Authorities Declare Against tho
Policies OF the Philadelphia ndcrwrIter
HARRISBURG. Pa, Nov. 4.-Insurance Com
missioner Lamber recently sent the Attorney
Generals department n letter inclosing n speci-
men policy of insurance issued by the Philadel-
phia Underwriters and saying that the Under
writer's is an unincorporated association Of two
companies of Philadelphia. The question
raised was whether the issuing Of policies by
this association under the unincorporated name
does not violate section 1 Of the act of Feb. 4.
1870. Deputy Acknowledgement Reeder to-day
gave the Insurance Commissioner an opinion
In which he holds that the Philadelphia Under
writer's Company is doing an illegal business,
and in clear violation of the law. He says:
From an examination of the form OF policy
submitted, both on the face and the Endorsement
thereof. 1t purports to be issued by the Phila-
delphia Underwriters. and the Endorsement of
the policy shows that the Philadelphia Under
writer's is composed Of the Insurance Company
of North America and the Fire Association OF
Philadelphia. The Insurance Company OF North
America was Incorporated by an act Of the Leg
stature on April Il, 1894. while the Fire Asso-
of March q. 1920. and subsequently. by the act
OF May 5, 1871, its name was changed to the
Fire Association OF PHILADELPHIA"
The Deputy Attorney.G General says that this
by the clause Of the contract in each policy in
which each company agrees to be bound by any
judicial decision affecting. the other on joint
contracts. He says that the policy on its face
both companies in all the preliminaries after he
has once sustained q loss. He goes on to say
that the companies have no power or authority
to enter into such a joint partnership and that
partnership between The parties thereto are
void.
