Hampden-Sidney Notes.
HAMPDEN.SIDNEY. VA. An

HAMPDEN-STDNEY, VA, April q.
The judges-Drs. +. II. Harding,
Robert Frazer, and Peter Winston, Of
farmvllle-to whom the prize essays
from members Of the PhiIanthropic
Society were referred, having awarded
the J. N. Cullingworth Junior Essayist
medal to Mr.. Robert II. Webb, Of Suf-
folk.
The second section Of the junior class
delivered orstions last Friday afternoon
In the Memorial chapel. The speakers
and their subjects were as follows:
George ID. Moore, Charlestown. w.
Va, Martin Luther; G. F. Ball.
Prince Edward county, 1.-THE Suprem-
acy OF the Pacific"; r. II. Webb. SUI.
folk. 1.-THE Transvaal Question: II. H.
Munroe, Baltimore, Nd, "The New
Woman aud Her Place In Modern
Life; II. Hawkins, Nottoway county.
System Is Power; w. A. McAllister.
Covington, classified Love-; IT. r.
English, Jr., Richmond, "The Mica
ragua Canal" The speeches were all
highly creditable, and were listened to
attentively by the ladies and gentle
men present.
Much disappointment was felt be-
cause OF the failure Of game with
Richmond college last Wednesday, on
account Of the heavy rain storm, which
kept the visiting team from getting be-
yond Farmville. Thursday was Ath-
letic-Day, and was observed by the
usual exercises In the afternoon, the
ground having dried sufficiently to
permit it. The rain on Friday and
Saturday prevented the team from st.
Adams from meeting its engagement
at Hampden-S Sidney, and thus another
disappointment occurred.
The contest for the position Of repre-
sentative Of the college in the intercol-
legiate oratorical contest to be held at
Washington and Lee University In the
near future, comes of next Saturday
afternoon, with some good men in the
race.
N. NJ. Martin, Esq, Of Richmond,
who has been visiting his family at
this place since Saturday, returns to
his office today.
Mr.. T. II. Cross, formerly OF Norfolk,
but who settled here last fall with his
family and has two sons In college, has
been appointed postmaster, instead Of
the former occupant Of this position,
who was removed as q nonresident.
Rev. F. L. McFaden, Of Lynchburg,
(class 1856, has consented to deliver
the Baccalaureate sermon at COM
mencement in June.

Many people think education the
means by which the power Of intem-
per nee is to be broken. While this
view seems plausible, experience warns
US to look for more effective agency.
Education is not morality, nor does
it make one moral. Ii can boast Of
knowledge Of good and evil, but it is
powerless to control these actions.
Is it not probable that the claims Of
education are so great today that the
power of instinct is very poorly devel-
Oped 4? And when instinct fails in its
work of restraint, education, helpless
indeed, in so humble sphere Of actiy-
ity, views the character overpowered,
but coldly observes, IL knew it told
you So"
Not even the lessons taught by ex-
perience make US better or stronger.
The will should control the desires,
while real education should give deep
er appreciation OF those desires. In
deed, no one has been truly educated
unless he has been led into it by me-
thing Of divine appreciation Of right
eousness unto an aggressive effort
against all tendencies to probable sim
ming.
The Creator Of us all promises great
things to those who surrender their
wills to His cause. Think Of the will
of man lost in His will as manifest In
the life of Christ Then live your life
to strengthen the weak brother. My
friend can you not make up your mind
to strive, by the help Of God, to drink
deep Of His fountain Of knowledge and
truth 80 that you may never thirst for
the intemperance Of this world?

RICHMOND, VA, April %, 1900.
To the Postmaster of Felden,
Prince Edward Co, Va.
MY DEAR SIR:-I received this morn.
ing communication from FeIden,
signed 1.-THE people Of Felden, Prince
Edward Co., Va" saying that there
are between twenty and thirty cases OF
smallpox in the town Of Farmyille,
and that no precautions are being taken
to suppress the disease, or to control
those who have it or who have been
exposed.
/ wish to state that in q letter re-
ceived from DR.. Winston on yesterday
he states that there are only two cases
In Farmvllle, and that everything IL
being done to stamp it out, so you see
the impressions prevailing in your
neighbOrhOOd are groundless, and great
Injustice Is being done the authorities
IN tarmville who have the matter In
hand, and, | am satisfied, knowing SO
well who they are, that the disease is
now under control and will soon be
eradicated. / think 1t but due the good
people Of Farmville that these facts
should be made public. and | ask that
you do what you can to correct the
groundless rumOrs that are now afioat
In your community.
Very truly yours,
PAULUs A. IRVING,
Secretary.
We have in our possession the
anonymous communication referred to
above and are glad to publish the letter
Of DR.. Irving, State secretary Of the
Board Of Health. AT this writing
there is but one case in the town (who
is convalescing) and two are confined
In the hospital near town.
The people Of Felden" are invited
to visit, and not Islander US.
