lecture on ''Tennyson and Women" in

and from heart evidently in full sympathy

this matter and contrasting his purity Of
spirit and language with that Of Bryon and
others.
Tuesday night at::the Ford s Lithia Springs
pavilion Polk Miller, for two hours kept
large audience in roar of laughter, peal
on peal, with his negro yarns, songs and
Jokes, and when at the close it was announc-

night. the burst of applause showed what a
hold he had upon his audience, visitor and
citizen alike. His tribute to the Confeder-
how one by one they were passing over the

borne to the tomb and by reverent hands
laid in his long home, every heart was touch

Hullihen, who has been a teacher in the
public school of Staunton for several years,
was allowed by Col. W. 8. Peters, (PrOf.

She is indeed to be congratulated on the
fact that she passed it successfully-the dis

apparent, when it is recalled, that out of
seventy-ive young men who were in the
Latin class, only twenty-nine passed the
examination successfully, and of these ten
were second or third year men.

Off for Alaska.

Capt. L. j.. Crowder and VIM. A. Pratt
were in New York last week and the latter
stopped off at Wilmington, Delaware to see
his uncle, w. A. Pratt, we'll known in this
city. On reaching his uncle's home LIE found
the uncle gone to the Klondyke gold fields.
As that portion of this hemisphere is just
now very interesting. We lrint from the
wilmington Star the following =
William A. Pratt, president of the Street
and Sewer Department, is the latest VIII
miDgtonian who will go to the gold fields in
the Land of the midnight sum-" He goes
this afternoon as an expert engineer for the
Yukon Mining, Trading and Transportation
Company, in which Willard salisbury,
Preston Lea. Charles f. Hutchings and sew
eral other Wilmingtonians arestockholders,
to see if it is feasible to build $50 miles of
railroad from juneau, on the Pacific coast,
to the head of the navigable waters on the
Yukon river. p. L. Packard, who has been
in the country returns with Mr.. Pratt
MI. -Pratts experience as civil engineer
him particularly for the work he is to I'm
dertake. An assistant will join him at Seat
tie and they will work together on the pro-
ject, takiug accurate data. They will work
rapidly. it being the intention of Mr.. Pratt,
who is also professor of engineering at Del
aware College, to return here before the col
lege opens in September.
Should the report OF Mr.. Pratt be favora-
bic to the building of the road, the project
will cost the company but little, as the
Canadian government has conceded the
right of way. The greatest cost will be the
matter Of grading, which will be extremely
difficult in some places.
The greatest barrier Mr.. Pratt will meet
is the ridge of mountains between juneau
and the KlOndyke fields and the Question of
how to get over or around than will, per-
haps, bother him. But whatever effort he
makes the directors Of the company will
carefully consider and should MI. Pratt
sanction the building of the road the work
will be done Immediately.

BIG FIRE At LEwIsBuRc.

THE LOSS IS $4,000, AND THE INSURANCE
SIC, 400.
Tuesday morning about 4.3O o'clock fire
was discovered in the clothing house of III T..
Bell of Lewisburg, W. Va, which rapidly
spread to the adjoining buildings. and in a
short time the entire business portion of the
town was in flames. 1t soon became appar-
ent that without assistance the whole town
was doomed, and a telephone message was
sent to ROnceverte for assistance, and the
fire company Of that place promptly
responded to the call and rendered valua-
BILE aid.
The excitement in the town was intense
being without water or fire engines there
was DO resisting such flames, and house af-
ter house crnmbled only to conduct the
flames to the one adjoining it. The portion
of the town burned was very compactly
built occupying both sides of the street. The
dwelling of Mr.. o. P. Sydenstricker, which
was just across an alley fl ON the Stratton
hotel was demolished in order to present the
spread of the flames in that direction. For
blocks away the citizens moved out their
household goods, expecting in their help
less condition to see the flames spread in
their direction 1t was night of horror,
women tainted and men stood with blanch-
ed cheeks. The work was evidently that OF
an incendiary, as two fires have occurred re-
Gently in that vicinity where this began. One
can readily understand what has occurred
to the town when he realizes that its only
hotel, both It's banks and all of its stores,
but two have been destroyed. The store
house of Mr.. Ford was the old Courthouse
built about 100 years ago.
The loss is estimated at $5S, 900, Oh which |
there is only abour $4,000 insurance. |
Among the heavy loosers are
II. T. Bell SIS, 900, the Stratton Hotel 5000, |
s. B. Mason $1,000, r. P. Rittenhouse 1000,
D. j. Ford & Son $4,000, Bank of Green
orier 5000, Bank Of Lewisburg $1,000, W..
L. Moore, 81, 500, ID. R. Thomas 5000, Fos-
er & Moore, 81 200. and a large number Of
mailer losses.

Prof. Woodrow Wilson.

Prof. Woodrow Wilson, on yesterday at
the Hot Springs, Va, delivered a lecture be-
fore the Virginia Bar Association there be-
ing native of this city, the following not
tice of him will doubtless prove of interest.
Prof. Woodrow Wilson was born in Staun-
ton December 49, 1856, the son of Rev. Jo-
seph r. Wilson, then pastor of the Presby-
terrain church here and now stated clerk of
the General Assembly of the Southern Pres
byterian church. His mother was Jessie
Woodrow, of Scotch stock, born in Carlisle,
England. When about two and a half years
old his father moved to Augusta, Georgia.
He obtained his schooling in that city and
in Columbia, South Carolina. He went to
Davidson College, N. q. one year, and four
years to Princeton where he was graduated
In 1879. The next year he studied law at
the University of Virginia, being prevented
bp ill health from completing his course,
practised law about year in Atlanta, Ca,
but left the bar in 1888, because of strong
preference for theoretical study and entered
the Johns Hopkins University in 1883 as a
student of history and politics, receiving the
degree OF Phi. d. upon examination in 1886.
From 1884 to 1885 he was Fellow in History
at the Johns Hopkins. In the latter year he
took the chair of history and political econo-
my at Bryn Mawr College, then just opsn-
ed. In 1888 he became professor of history
and political economy at Wesleyan Uni
versity. MiddletOwn. Conn. and in 1890
professor of Jurisprudence at Princeton,
which chair he still holds. Since 1887 he
has lectured every year at the Johns Hop
kins on governmental administration.
He has published many works of power
and learning. He is spoken OF in connec-
ton with the presidency Of the University
of Va. should one be elected

To Harness James River.

A movement is on foot to secure con.
troll OF all of the immense water power
on both sides of the James river at
Richmond. The object is to use this
power for driving stupendous electric
plant which it is believed would fur
nish electric power for all purposes of
manufacture and domestic use. The
idea is not only to distribute this pow
er in Richmond, but possibly for a
considerable distance above ana below
that city. 1t is understood that those
interested in the project are some Of
the biggest capitalists of New York,
men who are largely interested in cleo
trio enterprises there and elsewhere in
THE country.
