HOilins Institute. Virginia.

Hollins Institute six miles from the
city of Roanoke, is one Of the educa-
tional institutions that have made Vir-
ginia famous in the field of learning.
1t was founded in 1912, and has stead
lily grown in capacity, scope and repu-
tatiOn. To-day it ranks with those
schools for young women which COM
mand the entire confidence of parents

large to be limited to Virginia patron
age, SO that all parts of the Union are
now represented by pupils. Besides
the thorough educational work accom-
plished by means of ten courses from
which the student chooses, the institute
has unusual natural and acquired adj
vantages. 1t is in the valley of Vir-
ginia, region possessing climate I'M
eXcelled for healthfulness, and mineral
springs of famous giving pow
ers are on the grounds. There are 300
acres Of land surrounding the buildings

LONDON COMMENTS
On the Battle of La Quasina Are Full
of Praise for the Americans.

London, June 27.-The afternoon
newspapers here comment upon the bat
tie of La Quasina in the same strain as
the morning papers, praising the brav-
cry of the American soldiers and con-
demning the tactics which permitted
them to be ambushed.
The Westminster Gazette says it
thinks the serious part Of the fighting
has only begun, and adds:
1T is pity that 50 many brave men
must fall on both sides before Spain
sues for peace"
The story Of Edward Marshall, cor
respondent Of the New York Journal
and Advertiser debating his report OF
the fight for his newspaper while NOR
tally wounded, provokes sympathetic
comments. The Westminster Gazette
says:

A Klondike Sheep Speculation.
fFrom the oregonian.l

Jack Collins, who started for Dawson
City with band of sheep last summer,
has been heard from. He sold part of
his flock for $4,000. The other and big
rest half of the flock fed the birds of
the Arctic zone. This Is how it hap
pened:-
He drove the sheep in over the Dali
ton trail. Some time before Dawson
was reached cold weather came on, and
Collins decided to kill his sheep. He
killed and sold 300, and received nearly
$40, 600 for them. Then he concluded to
hold the remainder for better mar
ket. He killed the remaining 400 in n
sort of secluded place off the line of
travel and suspended the carcasses on
poles for enough above the ground to
be out OF the reach of bears, wolves, or
other wild animals. He left two young
men to watch the mutton, and pro-
ceeded to look for n mining section.
Having found one. he located n claim
and proceeded to test it. After he had
dug out "A few thousand dollars worth
of gold he thought he would, as the
French say. return to his muttons."
His stay had been 80 prolonged that
the young men had become weary of
holding IL wake over the sheep, apd,
imagining Dawson to be only a few
miles away. had started for that city
to enjoy some OF the pleasures a metro
poltan city can afford. 1t proved to
be about 100 miles to Dawson, so their
absence was more extended than they
had intended, and when Collins reached
the place where he had left the car
casses of 400 sheep he found only 400
| bleaching skeletons.
The eagles, ravens, crows, kites,
hawks and other birds of prey which
inhabt that region had been feastng
on mutton. Where the carcass is. there
will the eagles be gathered" is a
| prnyarh which nnp1ips IN other birds nj
prev. Collins had left so many car
casses that invitations had been sent
out and a general roundup of all the
| vutures and things in that region
| from Bering sea to the Mackenzie river
had taken place. Whether the claim
| Collins secured will make good the LOGS
of the mutton or not remoains tobe seen.
| but when he drives in his next band
of sheep the birds of prey will not get
| so large a percentage of them.

interior is still one of the most mystic
rious parts of the globe. That many
unknown things remain to be discov-

of the recent journeys of Sven Hedin,
the Swedish explorer. In the region
containing the lake called Lob Nor
he came upon tribe of half-savage
shepherds who were unknown even to
the Chinese. And besides more than a
score of saltwater lakes, and the ruins
of two ancient cities, he discovered a

Time may set his fingers there,
Fix the smiles that curve about
Her winsome mouth, and touch her hair,
Put the curves of youth to rout;
But the something God put there,
That which drew me to her first,
Not the imps Of pain and care,
Not all sorrows fiend accurst,
Can kill the look that God put there.
Something beautiful and rare,
Nothing common can destroy;
Not all the leaden load of care,
Not all the dross of earth's alloy;
Better than all fame or gold,
True as only Gods own truth,
1t is something all hearts hold
Who have loved once in their youth.
That sweet look her face doth hold
Thus will ever be to me;
Joy may all her pinions fold,
Care may come, and misery;
