THE festival OF the twelfth
month is not, as the name would
indicate, exclusively Christmas
holiday. II was celebrated in
much the same fashion as it is now
centuries before the Christian era.
BY the early Romans it was cele-
brated as the saturnala, or festi-
val Of Saturn, and was marked by
the prevalence of merry making
among all classes, rich, poor, old

The JUNE GRADUATE.

The month of June marks the close
Of the educational year in nearly all
institutions Of learning, including the
public schools of the country. 1t is
the month OF university and college
commencement" and of normal and
high school gcsurations. These instl-
tutions send forth an army of young
men and momen, armed with diplomas
certifying satisfactory completion %
courses of study and comforting var
ious and sundry degrees. 1t is estimat-
ed by an authority that this army this
year will number 100000, from 5000
to 10000 from the universities, techni-
cal schools and colleges, and the re-
mainder from institutions of lower
rank and from high schools; and that
Of this vast army, fully one-half will
seek employment in the professions
and trades, a majority endeavoring to
secure positions as teachers for which
they feel they are best prepared. The
June graduate thus becomes factor in
the competition for profitable employ
ment, in the preferable vocations of
life, ana a factor that must be reck-
oned with.
The professions have long been so
overcrowded that they have been pro-
fitable to only the most successful, be-
cause best equipped. The average
compensation for the lawyers of the
country, according to recent calcula-
tions, is about $1,5OO; that of physi-
clans. $1,000; that of teachers $7O0-
inadequate returns for the expense in
time and money devoted to the prepa-
Inc remuneration of the so-called
scientific" professions, while some
what greater, is also said to be less
than it should be to afford satisfactory
returns on the investments made in |
acquiring education. Yet each year
thousands of young men crowd into |
the professions and specials" fully |
aware of their crowded condition. en-
couraged by the knowledge that there
is always room on top 1t is their
great American privilege, and they are
to be admired for their determination
to reach the top. Certain it is that the
keener the competition the fewer the
mediocre lawyers, doctors and teach
ers. While many of the fondest hopes
are blasted, the public comes in for its
benefits.

The following signed statement has
been given out from the White House:
Il regret that the suggestion of a
third term has been made. | doubt
whether l am called upon to give 1t
notice, but there are now questions of
gravest Importance before the admin

just consideration should not be pre-
JUDGED in public mind by even sus-
picion of thought of third term. In
view, therefore, of reiteration of the
suggestion of it, | will now say once
for all, expressing long settled con-
viction, that / not only am not and will
not be a candidate for a third term,
but would not accept the nomination.

SOME RECORDS.

A brief review of the records of a
few of the Register gang who are now
industriously engaged in telling the
Republicans of Washington county
what they ought to do seems to be in
place just at this time. Here's what
three of the paid agents have been
doing" for the Republican party.
No. /, Chief Cook-Was Clerk OF
Courts six years and deputy clerk SIX
years. Bitterly opposed the election
Of a Republican to the Legislature in
1897, and Republican to Congress in
1900. He is a Republican for Or
FICE ONLY.
No 2, First Assistant to No. 1-Vot-
ed for Sam Jones for Governor in 1899.
and for Democrat for Congress in
1900.
No. 3, commonly known as "Old
Foxy'-Held the fat Office of Auditor
six years, as well as other soft snaps.
Mad because he cant get more, and is
travelling over the county setting up"

AcadeInl commencement.

The Academy of the College gradu
ated 2S young men and women at tn,
Presbyterian church Tuesday after
noon. In the presence of great mum
ber of relatives and friends of the grad
uating members, the public exercises
which marked the formal transition
from Academy to College were consum.
ated. Although the two seem Sc
closely affiliated and so completely
identified in aims and methods that the
completion of the former seems as il
truly is only preparation for the lat
ter, yet the break is much more alb
lupt than it seems and in the greater
liberty allowed is the added danger OF
neglect of studies and regular Col
lege work.
The class of 1901 is a worthy pro.
totype of the graduates from College.
The orations and essays were above
the average and were listened to with
close attention.

In presenting the diplomas of the
Academy Prof. Hoyt warned the grad
yates against over confidence and NOR
al cowardice, two great faults of the
young. He urged them to self reliance
and strong effort in the college course,
His remarks were pertinent and well
lined. The benediction was pro-
bounced by President Perry.
The instrumental music was execut-
"a by several of the Academy's most
accomplished pionists, and one member
n particular received continuous en-
ores.
The young ladies of the second year
lass acted as ushers. The church was
decorated with potted plants and :
'alms in great profusion. The grad
ates received many floral remem-
frances and gifts OF general char
cter.

Mrs Elizabeth Burr Hamilton, said
to be the last member of the seventh
generation of the Burr family, who
died at Bridgeport, Conn, last week,
aged 80, was the first cousin of Aaron
Burr. Her death recalls the fact that
although the Burr and Hamilton fam
lies were bitter enemies at the begin
ming of the last century, love found a
way, 32 years after the fatal duel. to
bring them together in the marriage
of the deceased to a later Alexander
Hamilton.
