IoIani College Paper.

The "Iolani College Magazine" Vol.
|. No. /, is the latest literary effort of
the local schools to come to hand.
While not as large as some of its col
lege contemporaries, the magazine Is
very well edited and Is bright and
pithy. The first issue contains a full
account of the annual college game
and local notes of the institution. The
prospectus outlines the establishment
of the paper and its hopes for the fu-
ture as follows:
The idea of publishing school pa
per from Iolani only occurred on July
18th. A meeting of school members
was called on July 18th, when it was
decided to issue the first number Of the
lolani College Magazine on August lst.
II was agreed to commence with one
sheet of reading matter, but the man
agement has already found that th!s
Is insufficient, and, therefore, the
Magazine will at once be enlarged.
Many imperfections will no doubt be
apparent in our first attempt, but 1t is
hoped that time will remedy these.
The account of our first Games Com
mittee meeting, with its accompanying
rules and election of officers, may, per-
haps, detract somewhat from our tirsc
number, but the enlargement of the
paper will give space to include mat
ter of general interest.
A special feature of succeeding mum
bers will be page devoted to the Old
Boys of Iolani, in which we shall
chronicle their movements and
achievements. Each issue will also
contain n short biography Of we'll
known Old Boy.
No. will contain the first of a series
of School Ballads, which have been
written especially for the Magazine.

Will Need 10000
To Police Philippines

New York. July ia special to
the sun from Washington says Plans
now under consideration by the Seer
tary Of War contemplate the keeping
of military force of 10000 soldiers in
the Philippines for some time after the
withdrawal of the volunteer troops
that will have to be mustered out Ct
service by June l. 1901. II is estimated
that it will require this number of
men to properly police the Philippines
for there is no intention of relinquish-
ing the control of any part of the ISL
ands. General Macarthur has fire.
Quently represented that the present
good condition is due to the holding of
all island garrisons and persistent pc.
Icing of territory occupied.
While 1t is expected that the re-
election of President Mckinley will
have good effect on the situation in
the Philippines, the preparations by
the Secretary of War are made with n
view to providing for any emergency
that might arise. There is general
belief that should the President be re-
elected the insurgent element will
realize the hopelessness of continuing
any further opposition and will sub
nit to the terms of the proclamation.
Additional proof that Aguinaldo and
his followers have relied upon the
probability of a change of administra-
tiOn Is shown in correspondence cap
tured some time ago by General Fun
stOn, certified copies of which have
just reached the War Department. The
capture of Aguinaldo's correspondence
revealed much valuable information.
1t is said that a number of prominent
European merchants are compromised
in the correspondence and that some
of the peapers show that American
anti-eXpansionists were largely re.
sponsible for the continuation of tn
conflict.
The plans for keeping force OF
| 20, 900 men in the Philippines after the
return of the volunteers also contem
plate the mounting of a number of in
| fantry regiments. General Macarthur
| has asked for more cavalry. but this
the War Department Is unable to Civ
him. and arrangements have beer
made to provide him with sufficient
horses to mount at least two infantr!
regiments. Orders have already been
issued for the shipment of $500 cavalry
horses to Manila, to be distributed tC
cavalry regiments and to be used In
mounting infantry.

been several workers along the line of
experiment thus indicated. both in
Europe and India. At the Pasteur In
stitute the work has been in the hands
of Or. Danyez. who Is said to have
been very successful in clearing sew
eral large establishments in Paris from
visitation of rats. We are told too
that the medium is new virus that
spreads a fatal disease among rats
without affecting other animals. This
is an important discovery II the ac-
count thus given of II should be borne
out by experience, and we In India
should be eager to give our rats the
benefit of DR.. Danyez' treatment. Ills

lieve not unknown in Bombay, but in
the form in which 1t has been applied
here II has not been successful. Nor
have better results attended other at
tempts to propagate fatal infection
among rats that have been made here.
1t has been found easy enough to in
oculate the rat; the difficulty has been
in finding out how to make tie inocu-
lated rat communicate the poison to
his neighbor. II was found that rats
placed in cages with others that had
been inoculated kept in excellent
health-which was precisely the re.
verse of what was wanted. PERHAPS

TO ELECT A SENATOR.

The report comes from Nashville
that the Mcmillan men want State
primary election, for the Democrats
to decide who shall succeed Senator
Turley.
In our opinion this IL one OF Mr..
McMillan's cheap little bluffs. Or
IL he wants it, why don't he come
out in plain words and say so. But,
IL he does want 1t, he can get it,.
For, in the first place, practically no
interest il being taken in the con
vention for next week except by the
McMillin men, and they will be
allowed to pack it to suit themselves
So If the Governor or his first lieu
tenants will ask that convention t.
pass resolution submitting the
Senatorial question to vote OF the
people, and requesting democratic
legislators to abide by that vote, the
resolution will be passed In a iffy.
None OF Mr.. Carmack's friends
will interpose an objection, unless 1t
Is as to time or some other detail,
that may be to the interest of the
party ana not to the hurt of the
Governor.
We enter an objection now to the
alleged time Of holding the mythical
primary. Mr.. McMillin's friends fix
1t after the fall elections. BY all
means it should be before. Ii the
people want Mr.. McMillin for the
Senate, they would enjoy the privi-
lege of electing some one else for
Governor. They don't want to rele-
gate the gubernatorial question to
the Senate. If Mr.'McMillin Is the
nominee of the party for Governor
as he doubtless will be, this primary
held before the fall election, II ii
defeated him for the Senate would
strengthen him several thousand
votes for Governor. Ii it elected
him to the Senate, it would be
easy enough to nominate and
elect some other good mar
for Governor. The primary be-
fore the fall election would unite
and strengthen the party as nothing
else would; held after the election i
would interest nobody except thu
personal or political friends of the
aspirants.
The primary is dead easy thing
for Mr.. McMillin to have, Il he will
draw the resolution not altogethe
in his own interest, but with th,
good of the Democrats in view, a
we'll as his own personal ambition
But the chances are, all this /
tax for nothing. We do not believ
Mr.. McMillin wants a primary a
any time. We believe he would b
afraid of one.

WEDDING BELLS.
Meadors-Dobbins,

Last evening at 8 o'clock in the First
Presbyterian church of this city, Miss
Louise Dobbins and DR. j. 7. Meadors
were united in marriage, Rev. F. b. Webb
performing the ceremony. The church
was tastefully and deliberately decorated
in green and viii Q, with numerous can
dies placed among them, the combined
taste of Mrs. John Dobbins, Mrs. Anne
McLemore and Miss Belle Webb rem
dering the whole particularly beautiful
and effective; and the scene developed
into one grand symphony when the au-
dience recognized the touch of Prof. j
Hough Guesto on the violin, combined
with that of Miss Camille Herndon on
the organ.
The ushers, Messrs. Buford Goodwin,
of Nashville Cheairs Mayes, Owen
BIashear, Fred Kelsey, DR.. b. Bowen
and JohG Cant, entered and occupied
their places around the altar, and then
came the attendants, who were Misses
Mary Sue Meadors, of Nashville, Annie
Evans, Rebecca Williamson, Mary
Brown, Elizabeth Nc Lemore and Chris
tine Watkins, and Messrs. Kendrick
Hardcastle, of Nashville, William Bunt-
ing, Florence, Ala, w. A. Long, Will
lam Evans, Frank Borum and w. B.
Wooten A combination of white or
candle over green silk with bouquets of
Easter lilies served to make the brides
maids look as fresh as the first leaves of
spring, and Miss Jean Dobbins the
maid of honor, might we'll have rept esen-
ted the first lovely pink rose of the sea-
son, in her gown of pink silk and tissue.
The central and most beautiful figure
in the tabieau was the bride; her fresh
young beauty rivalled in fairness the
lilies she carried, and she was grace
itself in her draperies of crepe-dechene
over silk. Her brother, Mr. Innis Dob
bins, accompanied her and they were
met at the altar by DR.. Meadors and his
best man, Mr.. Allen Meadors, of Nash
vile.
After the ceremony the bridal party
and limited number of friends enjoyed
a most elegant reception at the home
of the BRIDES parents, Mr.. and Mrs. W..
B. Dobbins. Green and white decora-
tions prevailed in the reception rooms,
while the hall was rich in red peonies,
tulips, and draperies. Delicious re-
freshments were served during the
evening.
The bride is we'll known and much be-
loved in our midst; her personal beauty
is only reflex of beautiful character
and sweet disposition; as daughter and
sister she has been a constant comfort
and pleasure, and as wife she will be a
treasure indeed.
DR.. Meadors is a moral, industrious,
progressive young man, and one for
whom his friends are proud to predict a
bright future in his profession.
The bridal couple left on the five
O'Clock train this morning for a two
weeks trip to Memphis and other cities,
after which they will be at home with
Mr.. and Mrs. w. B. Dobbins.

THE religious gatherings IN 1900
promise to be quite as interesting as
the political conventions, and no
less important. And it is worthy of
comment that the North and South
seem to be as much divided in their
religious sentiment, as they are up
on their political views. If the Sec
ular press Of the North may be re-
lied upon, the clergy of the Presby-
terrain Church North, are ready to
materially alter If not altogether to
discard the Westminster confession
VI faith while the preachers of the
Presbyterian Church South, are
loyal to it nearly to man. The
Methodist Church North is in fair
way to so amend their discipline
that the clause against worldly
amusements" shall not be under
stood to forbid dancing, card playing
and theatre going, while, on the
other hand, the NJ. E. Church South
would have it understood that they
would not tolerate the change.
These differences 90 to show that
there are more reasons than one for
the North and South branches of
these two great religious denomina.
tions, and that it we're better they
should remain as they are. They
are like some people, they can like
each other better by not being too
overly intimate. Northern people
and Southern people are very differ
ent people. There is as much differ
ence between the Cavalier of the
South and the Puritan of the North,
as there is between the Yankee OF
the New World and his British
cousin of the old. They are one people
in a sense; they are of one country
and loyal to one flag; but they are a
different type, with different Gus
toms and manners, different hered-
ity and environments. Upon all
great questions, either political or
religious, they seem to differ widely,
aud neither time nor circumstance
can wipe these differences out. The
Methodists of the North and Of the
South, and the Presbyterians Of the
North and OF the South, have reach
ed that amicable state where they
have agreed to disagree aud still be
friendly, and that is about as close
perhaps as they will ever get to.

THE Chattanooga News throws
