A select committee of the Newport News

lots for the High School site No sooner
had the meeting come TO order and It's
object been stated than Huntington, in
his quaint. characteristic way, remarked:
Gentlemen, quit school at fourteen
years of age and ought to have quit at
twelve. j lost two years of valuable
time "a
The committee wanted certain dcsis-
mated lots The caoitalist also wanted
those lots. The committee pressed their
petition singly ana in chorus. The capt
talisr countered as each plea was urged.
Finally. 10 relieve the situation. Dr.
p. chairman of the committee. said
We'll. Mr. Huntington, if it doesn't
suit you to give US these particular lots.
why, YOU can just name some you VIII
give us. and if their location doesn't suit
us. We can sell them and buy elsewhere.
At this the good humored old magnate
cEucked.

long been bitter political enemies, aud
have struggled with each other time and
again for the party leadership of their
city.
The breach between them grew wider
in the recent gubernatorial contest, WHEN
Captain Dey assumed the role of an anti
machine leader and led the forces OF

But the battle found its elimination in
