 CLOSING
 EXERCISES Commencement of Loretta
 Academy. ENTERTAINING PROGRAM Students Acquitted Them selves Very Creditably. A Tribute Paid to Character of the Late Governor Samford-List of the Prize Winners
 During the Year.

The annual commencement of Loretto Academy, on South Lawrence Street, took place in the main auditorium of the building last evening in the pres- ence of large, cultured and enthusias- tic audience. The program, as usual, was very attractive. It had been care fully prepared both as to numbers and as to the participants.
 The scholastic year which came to an end last night has been most success ful. the attendance has been large, the corps of teachers has been increased, and the curriculum of the school has been raised to a higher standard.
 Just before the exercises began last night. Miss Mamie Mulcahy appeared upon the stage and read the following appropriate address:
 Reverend Fathers and Kind Friends: In the name of the Sisters and pupils of the Academy of Loretto,' I beg to express the sincere regret with which we learned today of the death of the Chief Executive of our State, Governor w. J. Sanford, to unite our deep sym pathy with that of the State of Ala bama, and to offer our heartfelt con- dolences to his bereaved family.
 We regret that upon such a day of sadness, circumstances compel us to hold our closing exercises, which we had hoped to make a happy, a merry event for our dear friends.
 But though our program may seem gay, the sorrow in our hearts is none the less true for the death of this great and good man, and for the loss the State of Alabama has sustained in his demise"

WILL MEET TONIGHT
MEN INTERESTED IN HOTEL
 MOVEMENT. S
Chairman Roman Will Explain Pro. position to Business Men Who are to Solicit-Other Towns
 Are Interested.

Chairman s. Roman of the Hotel Committee has called meeting of all the members of the soliciting commit tees for stock in the new hotel com- pany. This meeting will be held to- night at 8 o'clock at the rooms of the Commercial and Industrial Association. At this time a financial prospectus will be submitted in detail, showing the plan proposed and giving the reasonable
 figures upon which the conservative business men of Montgomery have based their judgment that the invest ment is a safe and profitable one. It is felt that all committees should thoroughly understand from the start that it Is business proposition pure and simple, an investment of savings each month, which will prove remuner- ative in itself and increase in value as the years go by. It is not charity. Tie committees will not appeal to civic pride nor sense of patriotism. It Is not necessary. The history of other cities justifies the opinion that from six to eight per cent net can reasonably be expected on the investment. Every one admits the necessity for new ho- tel. Investigation demonstrates that 1t is splendid investment in itself now; that 1t will grow more valuable from year to year; that the plan is simple and feasible, and the men leading the movement trustworthy. It cannot fail to commend itself to the. community at large.
 Interest in the hotel movement is not confined to the cisy itself. Every day inquiries continue to be received from surrounding places and subscriptions to the stock offered. Although the origi- nal idea was to conflne subscriptions to the citizens of Montgomery only 1t is probably that the committee will have to yield to the pressure from outside investors and receive their subscrip- tions.
 The following letter is a fair sample of those being received:
 Montgomery. June il.
 "Mr. L. L. Gilbert, Secretary, Hotel Committee, City:
 Dear Sir-I have @ letter today from my friend, Capt. A. c. Gibson, Gab- bett, Ala. Captain Gibson has always been an ardent sympathizer and back CT of Montgomery in all of her enter prises. No man knows good thing
 better than Captain, Gibson. He is smart enough to appreciate the neces- sity of a first-class hotel, in Montgom- cry, and he is wise enough to see at a glance that money invested in first class hotel in Montgomery will prove to be a profitable one.
 T enclose herewith Captain Gibson's letter, authorizing me to subscribe for ten shares of stock in the new hotel. Your truly, "W. F. Vandiver."

The Exercises Proper.

The stage had been greatly improved since last year. Many modern con- veniences have been added, and the participants were enabled to appear to better advantage.
 The program commenced with a duet second valse. Goddard, by Misses O'Leary, O'Connor, Rutledge, Gardner. Mulcahy and Howe. The number was favorably received.
 The operetta, 'Ida's Troubles" by the children, accompanied on the piano by Miss M. Howe, was greatly enjoyed. The little tots acquitted themselves ad- mirably.
 The Loretta Orchestra rendered 'In- fanta Patrol" LeBarge. The rendition of the piece showed much musical tal- ent and careful training.
 There were frequent Interruptions of applause during the rendition of "Old Folks at Home,' in pantomime, by the juniors. About twenty young women dressed in white organdie, appeared on the stage, while an invisible choir sang the sweet old melody. Way Down Up- on the Sewanee Ribber," each utter ance being made more impressive by the elocutionary art of the young wo- men.
 Misses N. and c. O'Leary, Miss Gard ner and Miss Berry, next rendered an overture. "Lustspiel." Kela Bela. -.-
 Miss Ray Cadden. well known to Mcntgometians as a little genius and a mistress of the violin, delighted her listeners with a waltz from Faust" arranged by Wichtl Miss Cadden re- ceived an ovation at the conclusion of her number.
 | The intermediate class furnished plenty of amusements with their witch drill and dances. Miss Norman Berry accompanied them on the plano.
 A Star Feature.
 The star feature of the program was the drama "Vestals." by the seniors.
 The dramatic personae was as fol- lows:
 Senior Vestals-Junoa, Vestalis Maxima Miss R. Berry: Anemone. her neice. Miss A. OConnell; Livia. Miss K. Duffy; Pax, Miss K. O'Connor: Oc- tavia. Miss M. Hynes. Junior Vestals -Zappi. Miss c. Ambrose; Cornelia. Miss E. Brown; Tatia. Miss c. O1Leary: Athena, Greek Slave. Miss N. Clement.
 It was evident that much histronic talent Is possessed by these young wo- men. The rendition of their respective characters was superb, Their grace, the poses. gestures anc the splendid control of the voice was all very clev- CT. The drama was in 1ree acts and the stage settings in ed were cara-

It is good to know the kind of food those with weak stomachs and hearts can get along with, for when man or woman bs a little below par, an easily digested food Is the thing that goes right to the spot.

John G. Foster Shot on His Planta ton Near Shreveport.

Shreveport, La., June 12.-John C.. Foster was killed on the Foster plan tation, i've miles east of this oity, on the Vicksburg, Shreveport and Pacific, hy a negro named Prince Edward. There had been trouble between the overseers and negroes, and Foster left the plantation store to go to the scene of the trouble. The negroes gathered in a cabin to the number of twelve or fifteen. and as Foster approached, one of those in the cabin fired. mortally wounding Fosttr. The negroes scat tered, but several bands of officers have succeeded in capturing all but Ed wards. who did the shooting.
 Foster was about 22 years of age and belonged to one of the leading families of Shreveport. Governor McMillin of Tennessee is a brother-in-law of the deceased. There Is much excitement in this vicinity and threats of lynching Edwards if apprehended are heard on all sides.
 The killing of MT. Foster comes at a particularly inauspiclous time. His cousin. James Claiborne Foster is to he married tonight to Miss Magic Mc- Cutcheon of New Orleans, and big preparations had been made for the wedding. Another cousin, Miss Aeo- lin Schuler. Is to be married tonight at Keachie. and James and Olive Foster, brothers and sister of the murdered man. are there for the purpose of at- tending the wedding.
 At o'clock tonight 1t was announced that all the negroes implicated in the killing, with the single exception cf Edwards himself. were in custory. The negroes were placed in Kinnebrew's store near the Foster plantation and surrounded with armed men. Manly Edwards. wife of the murderer. were among those captured. She had her husband's shot gun, with which the deed was committed. in her possession when caught. She says that when MT. Foster rode up to the cabin, Edwards told the negroes to step back and he would settle the matter. He then onened fire on the young man.
