UNIVEVRSITY OF VIRGINIA,
Change in the Academic Sessions-An
Improvement

Change in the Academic Sesslons-An
Improvement.
University Of Virginia, Dec. 16, 1897.
Editor Of The Virginian:
The change in the custom at the
University of Virginia. by which the
academic session is now divided into
three portions instead Of two, is work
ing we'll. the more even distribution of
the examinations being Conducive to
more uniformly sustained class work
There Is one class of young men to
whom II Is certainly favora ble-thosc
who wish to enter the university, but
were unable to do so at the beginning
OF the session. Heretofore it has not
been to the advantage of n new stu
dent to enter In January, because jan
uary was mainly given up to examina
lOns, in consequence of which the
student entering found that he practi-
cally Cost the whole Of that month
Now he can enter at once upon his
regular class work, with two full terms
of the session remaining. The adj
vantage is increased, too, by the fact
that In some of the schools either new
courses or new divisions of courses are
taken up so that he enters at the most
favorable time within the session. S.

Cross = Examination of the Defendant
Not Yet Concluded.
The cross examination of enjamin F.
Hudelson in the sui for libel preferred
against him by Attorney d. B. Wood
worth was continued before Judge Camp
bell yesterday afternoon.
The questions were chiefly based upon
what took place during the investigation
before the State Board OF the American
Protective Association in connection with
the hearing of the charges against Rev.
Donald NJ. Ross.
After patiently listening for about two
hours to the questions and answers, the
Judge remarked that he failed to see how
such evidence could throw any light upon
the case. He was weary of the whole
business, and as be wanted to go home, he
adjourned court.
The case will again come up on Febru-
ary 10, when it is expected that Hudel-
sons long cross-examination will be fin
lsked.
