druggists License" Again.

Druggists pay a State license OF
$1,000 for the privilege Of compound
ing prescriptions and selling poisohs
for the issuing and recording of the il
cense the assessor gets a fee Of so cents,
and the county clerk IS cents, making
a total Of SLIPS. The pharmacy law,
which was subsequently passed, does
not impose one cent Of special tax or
license, but simply lays down certain
conditions, under which the druggist
must sell poisons, certain dangerous
drugs and compound prescriptions.
These are facts taken from the Code
of West Virginia and the Acts Of the
Legislature and cannot be controverted
On the line of patent and proprietary
medicines and drug sundries, which
we handle, the druggist does not pay
one cent special tax or license. The
public is not concerned about the
question of licenses, but what interests
them most is where they can get the
best and freshest medicines for the
least money. Very Respectfully,
G.. r. BUTLER.

ton to Culture and Education, and

The second day s session was opened
with devotional services by Rev, c.

tors Muldoon and Arnett OF these
subjects: Arithmetic, letter writing,

and civil government. A paper on

Shepherd College commencement.

shepherd college mas hau the riSnt
Of way the past week and there has
been a varied and interesting program
of exercises. Last week we made ref
erence to the exercises of Wedn esday
night. Thursday night Prof. Thomas
E. Hodges of the University gave an
excellent lecture before the literary
societies. He chose for his subject,
"Public Education, It's Aims and
Ideals" The speaker showed him
self thoroughly conversant with his
subject. He touched upon the many
crying abuses of the day in educa.
tional matters and gave in clear and
forcible outline the true purpose of
educational work. His presentation
of his subject was clear, logical and
strong, his delivery interesting and
forcible, and his views had the clear
ring of truth and were in no way
tinged with any mere speculative
theories. All in all his lecture was
very superior one and it must surely
have a far reaching influence.
Friday night was alumni night
and they made good use of it. The
orator of the occasion, Rev. E. L.
Folk, of Winston, n. c., could not
be present, but he sent very worthy
address which was read Mr.. F. l..
Weltzheimer. Miss Nellie Hendricks,
of Moler's, gave fine essay on Gen.
R. E. Lee. She was happy in her
choice of a hero and she was equally
happy in her treatment Of her subject
and her delivery. The fact is if there
had been free for all" prize given
on delivery it is more than likely that
Miss Hendricks could have made it
interesting for the contestants. Rev.
W. S. Hammond, of Washington, D.
c., gave the history of the "Class of
81" The history was not very ex-
tensive, but it was given with good
taste and his talk was admirable. He
kept the audience well in hand and
made pleasant bit Of history for his
class. Then came a very interesting
occasion when Capt. H. c. Getzen-
danner, Of Charles Town, in the name
of the alumni ASSOCIATION presented
to the trustees, fine portrait Of Prof.
Joseph McMurran, the first president
of Shepherd College. His tribute Of
affection and esteem for Mr.. McMur-
ran was quite touching and his re-
marks made a deep impression. Mr..
Geo. NJ. Beltzhoover made an APP
proriate reply in the name Of the
trustees and Mr.. McMurran e1-
pressed gratitude for the kindness
shown him. After this interesting
program the alumni and few Of
their frienes adjourned to the hall,
where a feast and further program
had been arranged. In the absence
Of Mr.. w. E. Osbourn, Miss Lucy
Schoppert was master of ceremonies,
and after a well arranged feast with
brief remarks she started the speak
ing by announcing the first toast and
speaker; "The Boys Who We're, Dr.
James NJ. Ransom. This was followed
by Miss Edith Donnelly on School
Memories" and Mr.. j. A. Staley,
whose subject was Now and Then.
The audience was clearly in no mood
to adjourn and they began to call
out others on their own account and
a number responded and number
of very happy hits were made. There
was a hearty and unanimous vote in
favor of repeating this part Of the
program next year.

Saturday. night was contest night
and there was large and interesting
audience present. The first year
defamation contest was in the hands
of Miss Louise Anna Snyder and Miss
Julia Lane Reinhart. The former
chose as her selection Flying Jim's
Last Leap" The latter, "By the
Alma or After the Battle" The
contest was spirited, but the judges
decided that the first on the program
was first in point of excellence and
awarded the banner for the coming
year accordingly, and the award was
received with hearty satisfaction. The
declarations of the second year were
delivered by Miss Lillian Knott,
whose subject was "Constantius and
the Lion, and Miss Elizabeth Price
Butler, whose subject was 1.-THE
Gypsy Flower Girl. They acquitted
themselves well and awakened much
interest in the decision which the
Judges gave in favor of Miss Knott.
The oratorical contest came next, and
that was equally as well carried out as
the others. Miss Anna Kathryne
Mckee represented the Ciceronians
and chose as her subject, "The Guilt
walton of the Beautiful She wrote
and delivered her Grafton with great
credit. Her competitor was Mr..
Eugene Hildt Barnhart, who gained
the victory with his well written
grafton on individual Manhood. "
The subject for debate was "Re-
solved, That the Educational Advan-
tages of Our Country Through its
Educational Institutions is Keeping
Pace with Material Progress. The
Ciceronians had the affirmative and
they were represented by Mr.. Ernest
Healdt Bitner and Miss Almyra
Marten. Mr.. John Luther Daniels
and Miss Sada Elizabeth Snyder
represented the Parthenians and won
the decision of the judges. The con-
test was very creditable all the way
through, and all the speakers acquit-
ted themselves well. In a few cases
there was reason for unanimous
decision, while in others there was
diversity of opinion as to who really
did excel. Certainly neither society
had any occasion to be ashamed OF its
representatives.
Sunday was dropped out Of the CAL
endar and rainy day substituted for
it, but despite the rainy evening a
good sized audience assembled to hear
the annual sermon by Rev. 81. NJ.
White, D. D., of Kernstown, Va. He
chose as his theme 1.-The Preaching Of
John the Baptist, and his treatment

CAUGHT BY
THE BUNCO MEN
The Disastrous Experience of a
Young Man From the
Islands.

One of the most successful swindles
ever perpetrated by bunko men in this
city was consummated yesterday morn
ing when 5000 was obtained by four con-
idence men from the son of millionaire
planter of the Hawaiian Islands. CThe
name of the victim is given in the
Chronicle as Adam Gunther)
The young man recently arrived from
Hawaii and brought letter of credit for
IS 900 on the Anglo-Californian Bank.
Yesterday morning, while walking on
Market street, the young Hawaiian was
accosted by a well-dressed man, who
struck up an acquaintance. The bunko
steerer was "Sheeny Kid whose face
adorns the Rogues' Gallery of many cit
les The swindler told his Hawaiian
friend that he was the nephew of we'll
known millionaire, who has large inter
ests in Hawaii. Finally the victim was
induced to go to the Anglo-California
Bank and cash his letter of credit.

say nothing as to his escapade, but tC
leave the city for a few days and return
| to Hawaii as soon as he could. The
Hawaiian was escorted to the ferry
building and was left there. Finally
realizing that he was the victim of bun
ko-steerers, the Hawaiian sought a Pc

MISS CALLAGHAN's DEFIANCE.
The Only Non-union Government
pressfcedcr Not Yet Modified.

There was a great deal OF interest man
ifested among labor organization people
yesterday as to the probable outcome of
the differences between the press feed
ers' union and Miss Mary Callaghan, the
only woman employed at the Government
Printing Office who is holding out against
being forced into the union. 1t is not
thought that Miss Callaghan can win.
An interesting feature OF comment on
the situation was in re gard to the press
man who worked with Miss Callaghan
on Friday. after the expiration of the
time limit set by the Prossmen's and As
sistants' Union of North America within
which all feeders hired by the Govern
ment were to secure union cards. 1t
was argued by labor organization men
that he should be called to account for
violating the national unions edict, and
It is not improbable that steps in this di-
rection will be taken. II is held by many
that if he had taken determined stand
when Miss Callaghan appeared for work
, on Friday. the trouble would have been
ended then and there
While the union element regrets that
Miss Callaghan has carried her opposition
so far they are satisfied with the situa-
ton II was learned from a reliable
source yesterday that the powers that
be at the Government Printing Office
had promised that Miss Callaghan would
not be retained as a pressfeeder unless
| she took out a union card.
After Miss Callaghan left the office on
| Saturday morning. 1t was spread among
| the employees M the big shop that she
| had been informed she must yield before
! she would be permitted to return to work.
J She was full Of defiance when she de-
| parted but IL is believed she will come to
| terms when she realizes that 600 union
| people are stronger than single non
| union one.
