A Post-Graduate course.

An English university man who has
been visiting Washington recently was
invited to supper one night with a par
ty of men who with one exception, are
graduates of the most noted of Ameri-
can colleges. The one exception was
the host, man who is always delight
fully frank about all the incidents of
his career. That talk turned on col
leges and every man declared his alma
mater.
And you" said the Englishman,
turning to his host, you are a college
man, too, | presume"
"Oh, yes, indeed" answered the host.

which has turned out more men than

1t isn't often that an umbrella is a
factor in the course of true love and
plays part that makes it's current run
smoothly, yet that is what happened
few months ago, with the result of
happy contamination that has just fol-
lowed, according to the story told by
the head of one of the big houses in the
wholesale district.
Il was not at all pleased with the at
tention that my daughter was receiv-
ing from a poor young lawyer" ahe
said, in telling the story, mot because
he was poor, but l feared that he did
not possess qualifications that would
ever raise him above poverty. The fact
is, l was prejudiced against him, and
let my daughter know that l did not
approve of him; but, as usual, that
made no difference, and he came to the
house with provoking regularity.
Zone night, when he was ready to
take his departure for his home, about
half a mile away, he found that it was
raining, and my daughter lent him my
choice umbrella. knew from dear ex-
perience what a dangerous experiment
that was, and when my daughter told
me what she had done-as soon as he
had gone-I was provoked indeed.
II went back to the book | had been
reading, and the house quieted down
for the night In about thirty minutes
the front door bell rang, and as the SER
wants had all retired l went to see who
was there. The rain was pouring hard
then, and there at the door stood the
young man with my umbrella in his
hand and his own over his head. AS
he handed me mine he thanked me for
the loan of it, and, raising his hat, went
away before l could speak, for, to tell
the truth, was little astonished.
That episode changed my opinion OF
the young man, for | made up my mind
that If he was so particular about re-
turning an umbrella he possessed quail
ifications that would make a man Of

Pension. Grabbing In Virginia.
Richmond Times.

Richmond Times
The proposal to increase the pension
fund of Virginia 100000 may we'll create
deep concern in the minds of all who re-
call the financial vicisstudes of this State.
After more than thirty years of deep finan'
cial trouble, Virginia has at last placed her
feet upon solid ground. To have this
ground now washed away by a pension
flood would be disaster 80 far-reachlng
that it is difficult to contemplate it with
equanimity.
We believe that our record as loyal Con-
federates is without blemish and it is no
lack of sympathy with the Confederate
cause or with it's defenders that makes us
most earnestly protest against this perVer'
sion of legislative power under the guise OF
showing appreciation of the Confederate
heroes. Exactly the same claim has been
made by the politicians in the North who
wanted to strengthen the Republican
party by an abandoned recklessness in dis
pensing public funds to Union soldiers.
The fraud and corruption which have
grown out of that abuse of power Lave I'M
dermined the character of the North and
patriotism IS now regarded mainly as
purchasable article and civic virtue, If not
dead, is in a moribund condition. To in
crease and spread the germs Of this poison
in Virginia would be most injurious to the
character of our people and would be as a
premium upon all sorts of corruption.
There is no reason why any old Confeder-
ate soldier who really needs assistance
should not get it from the locality where
be lives through the properly-constituted
authorities of his county.
Let this means of bidding for popularity
be once started and we shall see in Virginia
the same proceedings which have disgraced
the United States Congress and the pen
sion bureau. The whole thing is not only
wrong in principle, but disastrous in result,
and but for tie timidity of politicians both
in Congress and in the Legislature it would
be denounced in terms which it deserves.
In face of the combined forces Of the
timid and the designing it is inspiring to
see the sturdy courage and integrity of
Senators Glass and Keezell, who are OPP
posed to opening this box, which has all
the ills Pandora's ever had, without res
iduum of hope.
1t would be interesting to hear the rea'
sons which are assigned for this wild and
hasty zeal for the old soldier. Does 1t
spring entirely from sympathy for the des'
olate and forlorn, or is there some shrewd,
if not sinister, political move which is
using the old soldier as a stalking horse?
Who knows? We do not and can only
inquire.
That there is something in the wind
more than appears, seems highly probable.
