institution in the city and have a brief
message to deliver to the students OF

meet men of two different classes. name
~ college graduates or theoretical men,
ana self-trained or practical men.
These two classes arc directly opposed
10 each other in spirit aud in action and
one class never fails 90 notice and remark
on the failings of members of the other
division. Those practical men say that
college men arc usurping the territory
or others; that they do not follow up cdu-
cational, literary or scientific lines OF
study, but rather seek To- cheat the self
trained men out OF positions i'm shops,
mills and offices
When In college pulled an oar for
the glory OF Old Brown. and a friend OF
mine Was continually handing me clip
pings from newspapers which said
close up your colleges. We. have
enough oarsmen now
This foeling Is still alive at the present
time and IL is on this subject that wish
TO say a few words Every man who
leaves college either brings credit or
shame upon his Alma Mater. \ man In
my class was discharged from a position .
which he had accepted upon leaving coll
lege because. as the employer said: Only
Intelligent men are wanted
Now. such a condition OF affairs must
not go on. Although believe that vast
majority OF college graduates make their
marks in the world. yet there are a rev
who cast the shadow OF disgrace upon
their college. \ college man should seek

A MOUNTAIN TRAGEDY.
Young Girl Accuses Ner Recreant Lover OF
Double Murder.

Facts in regard to what is believed to
;have been a foul murder have just
come TO light in Cherokee county.
In December, 1899 Chas. Mason and
John Sherman, two men who had been
working for the Hisor Lumber Company,
at Tellico in Cherokee county, started
across the mountains for their home III
Graham county, with several months pay
in their pockets. They had been drink
ing freely that day; and as some weeks
had elapsed and no news was received
of them, the suppositi0n was that they
had been frozen to death, though there
were whispers of foul play. A short while
afterwards a party from Murphy were
hunting deer in the mountains when their
driver discovered the skeletons of two
men. BY the clothing still clinging to
the bones the deer driver recognized the
missing men. In the clothing only
small sum of money was found. As 1t
YVES the opinion of all at the time that
the men had lost their way and had been
frozen to death, the bones were buried
and now what Promises to be the sequel
comes TO light.
The Murphy correspondent Of the Ashc-
vile Gazette gives the following recently
discovered facts touching the death of
the men:
Working at the same place with Ma
son ard Sherman was a young man, Chas.
Dunboye, who did not bear the best OF
regulations. Under promise Of marriage
he had seduced the young daughter of a
mountaineer whose veracity had never
been doubted This girl now states that
on the day of the disappearance of the
two men, she saw Dunboye strap re-
volver around his waist, and take the
trail into the mountains through which
the two men soon followed She did not
see her lover for several days, when in
a confidential mood and swearing her TO
secrecy, he told her that he had bush
whacked the men, that in their drum
ken condition it was an easy matter to
kill and rob them; that as soon as mat
tiers became quiet he would marry her
and they would have a good time on the
money.
NEARLY q year followed and the mys-
tery OF the death of the two men was
fading from the minds of all except the
parties directly concerned and the loved
ones at home, when Dunboye becoming
tired of the girl deserted her, but
NOT till he had told her that he would
serve her as the two men whom he had
murdered, if she told about the mat
ter. After he deserted her and failing
tc make good his promise to marry her
and about to become mother, she
went before a magistrate and made aifi-
davit IS to the above. The bones were
exhumed and after a careful examination
what was thought to be bullet marks
were found on them. Warrants were
taken out for the young man upon cir
cumstantial evidence and the girls sworn
testimony, but he had fed and up to the
present has not been apprehended, though
it is thought that he is in hiding in some
OF the almost inaccessible mountains near
the Tennessee line"
