benefactress of this great educational
institution She has provided III d very
large measure the necessary funds foi
running the university. Had she con
fined her interest to her capability OF
making donations her career would
| have been laudable But this evidently
is not her purpose. She seeks TO domi-
nate the teaching force TO such extent
that professors must either trim their
sails to her whims or get out

HIS enumerated economic doctrines
which from her viewpoint are wrong,
hence he was aImoniahed TO desist and
reform his views 70 coincide with Mrs.
Stanfords concept The doctor who
mas intellectual convictions, was unable
to concelc the point demanded, hence
his head was cut off.
In his case is evidence of the danger
t. which truth and education are ex-
posed when they run counter to tie
power Of donated wealth 1t would lie
infinitely better for the nation that such
like institutions were RACED to tie
ground than that ostontatiuus riches
should say what must and what must
not be taught. Universities are magni-

In a recent number of the Sunday
School Times there is an article by Miss
Bele M. Brain on What is the Sunday
School Doing for Mssions?" She gives
the amounts received by twelve OF the
largest societies in the United States.
They are as foilowS: The American
Board received from the Sunday-schools
last year S11.GG0, the Northern Baptists
$4,000, the Foreign Christian Missionary
Society 5000, the Lutheran General
Synod $1,000 the Methodist Episcopal
Church of the North s3S2,0oo, Methodist
Episcopal Church of the South $4,000
Northern Presbyterians $4,000, Southern
Presbyterians 5000, United Presbyserians
5000, Protestant Episcopals, $4,000.
Reformed Church in America $4,000
Moravians Northern Province), $1,000. 1t
will be seen from these figures that Sun
day-schools are doing remarkably well.
The Methodist Society receives 50 per cent
of its entire income from the Sunday
schools The Foreign Society receives
26 per cent. of its income from the same
source. No other society in the land
receives so large Il proportion from the
Sunday-schools.

PRESIDENT WILSON'S ADDRESS.
Approved the Treatment Accorded
Bocr Envoys by the President


LEXINGTON, Va, May Sl.-Special.-
The address before the faculty and student
body at the regular weekly gathering was
the last that President William L. Will
son, OF Washing ton and Lee University,
will make this session, as the school year
is drawing TO close.
Nj. Wilson introduced his regnaks by
saying that it had not been his custom TO
preach from the platform TO the young
men OF the University, nor would ne now,
as young men were not, rule, given
10 taking advice. They preferred gaining
their knowledge in the school Of expert
ence-a school that was Very eXacting, in
which there were no endowed scholarships,
40 free tuition, but where every matr:2u
late paid fun value Tor the knowledge
gained.
Continuing, he said that the present year
was one OF great Importance because of
the approaching Presidential campaign.
The TWO political parties are manouverIng
for advantage and nearly all the meas
ureS before Congress are made to take a
partisan caste. lie then commented on
the visit of the Bper Commission now In
the United States, and expressed his APP
prevail OF the course pursued by President
Mckinley Following the precedent of his
predecessors the President could not do
otherwise without doing violence to the
laws of neutrality recognized by all civil
lized nations. The right of the individual
10 express sympathy for the Boer was
not denied any citizen. In fact. the people
of the United States could not forget the
struggles of their ancestors and the ten
dency of our sympathy was in behalf of
the weaker coinbatant Mr.. Wilson said
t:aat he had followed very closely the
struggle between Briton and Boer. yet he
believed that it unjust 10 deprive
governed people Of representation
The question Of the conduct of the
United States was brought to a TEST dur
ing Washington's administration when
Citizen Genet's actions in this country
were such as to force the President TO de-
,lland his recall, and the criticisms of our
chief Executive for his stand. Fortunate,
indeed, for the United States. said Mr..
Wilson that Washington was man not
TO be moved from his duty TO his country
and the rights OF her citizens.
