President of the University.
will not be as generally admitted as the
above. Rmake bold to say that the de-
preston in business, the hard times, and
the scarcity of money have helped to
swell the attendance. Some one will say:
Il do not see how this can be so. 1t costs
money to send boys to the University.
How can more parents send their sons
when money is scarce than when there is
more money in circulation?" | confess
that on first blush this question sounds
like a poser, but IL little reflection will
show that paradoxical as it may appear,
more boys go to college in hard times
than in good times. The reason is that
when business offers renumeratlve fields
for bright and ambitious youth, many
of them cannot resist the temptation of
going into the avenues of trade when
they ought to be in college. Any person
familiar with the history of Durham and
Winston, two of our best business and
manufacturing centres, will vouch for this
situation as to young men. More young
men are in college from these and other
busy marts than there was when dollars
were easier to make than now. Men Will
borrow money to educate their sons III
hard times, even by mortgaging their
property, who would encourage the same
boy to go into business if it seemed easy
for him to early establish himself in a
prosperous business. | have known in
stances of that kind. The competition
of to-day is so fierce that the man whose
tools are not of the best steel cannot win
in the race unless he has some peculiar
gift or special privilege. The fathers and
the sons see this, and they are of one
mind in their resolve that the boy shall
enter life's workshop with the sharpest
tools. The college-bred man starts the
race long ways in the lead of his COM
petitor who has to carry the burden of
heavy and dull tools with which to blaze
out his way in life. The harder the
times, the heavier the competition, and
| the greater the necessity for thorough
preparation.
| The growing excellence of the Univer-
sity and the wise and popular administra-
tion of President Alderman are the other
causes of the marked progress that has
characterized the first year of DR.. AL

Washington, ID. c., June 3.-Captain
W. ID. Smith, of the Cuban army, and
said to have formerly been on the staff
of General Gomez, was before the sub
mittec of the Senate Committee ON For
eigh Relations to-day. He supplied the
committee with many details as to the
strength of the insurgent forces and of
their resources and also furnished them
with much information concerning the
treatment of pacificos and other residents
of Cuba by the Spaniards. His testi-
mony was strictly guarded by the com

ALEXANDRIA'S BIG FIRE.

Alexandria, Va, June 3.-The fire
which swept over Alexandria last night
and early this morning was the most
destructive in the history of the city,
The loss amounts to $4,000 with $4,000
insurance The buildings that were
destroyed were the largest commercial
houses in the South years ago when
square riggers piled between foreign
ports and Alexandria. Many of the
buildings will not be rebuilt

DTRRANT IS RESPITED.
An Appeal is Taken From the Decision
Denying Il Writ of SuperSedeas

San Francisco. June 3.-The attorneys
for Theodore Durrant again appeared
before Judge Gilbert in the United
States Circuit court to-day and applied
for a writ of Supersedeas for the pur-
pose of staying the execution of sentence,
but this was denied by the court. An
Application for leave to appeal from this
decision to the Supreme Court of the
United States was then granted. Al
though it is an open question whether. in
view Of the denial of the writ Of super
sedeus, the order Of the court acts as n
stay of proceedings. Attorney General
Fitzgerald told Warden Hale to take no
action in the premises pending the APP
peal. AS the United States Supreme
court does not meet again until October
next this virtually means a respite for
six months at least.

Dear University!
Thy sons right loyalty
Thy praises sing.
For thee, our Mother dear,
May every coming year
Fresh-crowned with JOY appear,
Fresh hOnOrs bring.
Heaven blessed the genial ray
OF that October day,
When at thy shrine,
Under the poplar shade,
Their vows our fathers paid, 500
Thy corner stone they laid
With rites divine.

That blessing hath remained,
Dishonor ne'er hath stained
Thy record fair.
Still Cardinals pride,
Still with her best allied,
/ Her sons from far and wide
Still boast thy care.
Fair may thy hours roll on,
AS numbering one by one
Thy tuneful bell
Now rings for duties DONE
Now calls to honors won,
Or, for a comrade gone,
Tolls out a knell.

Our fathers when they served
For Liberty,

1t viii be remembered that q
few days since q free distribution
OF samples of DIR. Hobbs Spara-
gus Pills was made at the Anti
Monopoly drug store. Everyone
that asked was given q box, free
Of charge, and none went away
empty handed. This remarla-
bic distribution was made as q
challenge to those afflicted by
diseases Of the kidneys, bladder
and blood, backachc and rheuma-
tism, to test the healing power Of
these wonderful pills.
The test has proven Of great
interest to druggists and the
public at large, because Of the
magnitude of the offer as well as
the evident confidence the pro-
prietors have in the merits Of
their remedy. Nothing short of
absolute faith, founded on known
results, would have justified DR..
Hobbs challenge.
The favorable reports received
indicate that the majority of
those who obtained samples of
DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney
Pills used them as directed, JUS
tifying DR.. Hobbs faith in the
people, and that large number
of our citizens, suffering from one
kind Of kidney and bladder trou-
bic or another, are receiving I'M
expected benefit. They all APP
pear on the road to recovery, and
are focking into the Anti-Monop-
Oily drug store to purchase fur
ther installments of this grand
remedy.
In this short time DIR. Hobbs
Sparagus Kidney pills have firm
ly established q reputation and
gained the confidence of the pco-
pie Of this community. They
have today more warm friends in
