The Pittsburg Observer saws the first
teacher of Harvard University Twas Ma
thaniel Eaton. and he was a graduate of
Jesuit college. If he were living today.
President Eliot would not only not let
him teach there, but would not let him
study there, except under Yexatious dis
ordinations, because he got his college
training in a Jesuit school But when
Eliot is forgotten and his wild electivism
has been cast out of Harvard. Eaton Will
be remembered with pride.

Advices from Florence relate that Most
Rev. Archbishop Corrigan OF New York
was the guest of Mrs. Fisher in the capt.
tai of Tuscany. He administered the sac
rament of baptism to several children
belonging to the families of the Floren-
tine aristocracy. The ceremony was car
ried out in the baptiStry at Florence,
which Dante has made conspicuous in
European literature and rendered immor-
tai by his reference to Ii in the "Divina
Commedia," where he speaks of it under
the found title of MILO Bel San GioVan-
nj" All the children born in Florence are
still baptized at that font which was
called to Dante's mind when he saw the
holes in which sinners guilty of simony
are punished:

MIR. G. w. B, LANE

The Norfolk and Portsmouth Bar

tribute Of respect to the memory of
Mr.. Chas. w. b. Lane, the able young
attorney who died in Vineland, N. j.,
Tuesday
In the absence OF President w. b..
Martin. Colonel l.. d. Starke, vice
president of the association, presided
over the meeting, and after stating it's
object, he appointed a committee, con-
sisting of Nessrs. A. b. Seldner, Taze-
well Taylor. Ivor A. Page. e. S. Ruffin
and Lawrence Warning, to draft and
present resolutions.
Mr.. III. III. Little acted as secretary
The following resolutions were pre-
scented and adopted:
Again we have been called together
to mourn the loss of one of our mem
bers. who has been taken from us in
the prime of vigorous manhood: who.
by his sterling qualities, amiability and
consideration, had won the affection
and esteem OF such of us as have had
occasion to meet him, either profess
sionally or socially.
Charles William Bradley Lane de-
parted this life on Tuesday, the 2lst
day of August, 1900 in the 3Sd year of
MS age, having been actively engaged
in the practice of his chosen profession
in the city of Norfolk for the past
eight years. during which time, by his
energy and industry and close appli-
cation to his professional duties. he
had won for himself a position as one
of the leading young members of the
Bar. AS an advocate he was clear
forcefui and convincing; as an oppo-
nent. he was fair; as an. associate.
considerable and helpful. and as a
friend. constant and true. His we'll
earned reputation has left him an un-
diminished name that will long live after
him. and his untimely taking away has
created feeling of sorrow and regret
to the members of this Bar; therefore
be ii resolved:
First. That in the death of Charles
w. b. Lane we have lost an honored
active and esteemed member of our
profession. whose courteous and affable
manners have endeared him to all OF
us.
Second. That as a token of respect
to his memory we attend his funeral
in body.
Third. That copy of these resoIu-
tions be presented to the courts of Nor
folk. Portsmouth and Norfolk county
with request that they be spread
upon the records, and that n copy be
also sent to the family of the deceased
