Editor Of The Times: s
$5si Sir have been much interestctS IN
yolrs word war gainst people coming late
TO concerts and the theatre. and have
myself often been annoyed by this II q sh-
ion" It is the people who come to DC
seen and heard and not to hear and see:
Could 1t not be suggested to the manager
of all such entertainments that very
simple correction Of this nuisance would
be to close the doors at q concert and
allow people to enter only when a NUM-
Der is finished and when the first act OF
an opera or play is over?
& This is done in foreign countries and
one always sees printed on the pro-
gramme, The doors will remain. closed
during the performance" Since we love
to ape other countries in most any way,
good or bad, it seems to me we might
follow this example in this and save not
only those who go to hear, but the art4sts
themselves a great annoyance.

PRESIDENTS VISIT TO
CHARLESTON.
THE

President Roosevelt has gone to Charles
ton to attend the Exposition, and he will,
no doubt, receive cordial reception and
enjoy the hospitality of South Carolina,
than which there is none more delight
full in the United States. We sincerely
hope that no cranks or ill-mannered per-
sons will do or say anything to mar the
pleasure of the Presidents visit, and the
pleasure which the people of Charleston
will have in entertaining him.
III this connection Editor Watterson re-
Gently wrote a letter to the Courier-Jour-
nal, from Washington, in which he said
that he was on record in the attcstation
Of a belief in the Presidents courage,
cleanliness and good intentions; indeed,
touching the personalities and private
life 81 greatly admire him. Mr.. Wat
terson continues. "It will be observed
that did not directly call him a bronco
buster. I spoke of the 'self-conf:dence' and
the queer manners of the buster;
though if I had said 'bronco-buster' di-
rect it was certainly not an affront-be-
cause in many ways the bronco-buster is
an admirable Character
He adds that if he had used the term
"trick mule he might have been accused
of discourtesy.
Nobody doubts that. Mr.. Roosevelt is
a. gentleman, or that he is a man of cour-
age and convictions. Before Editor Wat
terson had spoken Of him as bronco
baster' The Times had referred to his
s'buclsing" procliviticss But no dis
courtesy was meant on our part. Mr..
Roosevelt is trough rider" and we
naturally associate broncces with rough
riders. 1t seems to us a very proper
designation of Mr.. Roosevelt's propensity
to do the unexpected. He is a man of
impulses. His impulses are generous, but
he is impulsive none the less, and inn
pulsive people are proverhially indiscreet.
1t is this propensity Of Mr.. Roosevelt
that the public fears Nobody knows
what moment he is going to do something
to shock the political, the business or the
financial sworld. To sum it all up, we
believe that Mr.. Roosevelt's intentions
are good, but the effects of an injury are
none the less sure and hurtful because
the person who inflicts it meant no harm.

A Graduates Complaint.

EDITOR OLEIne Times:
Sir-In a recent article published in Inc
Times. the author deplores the fact New
York and Pennsylvania are so far ahead
Of Virginia in the number of their nor
NAL schools. Now, no loyal son OF
daughter of the Old Dominion could just
exactly relish the idea of hearing her
surpassed by other States in any respect.
However,, we cannot afford to carry TINS
feeling to an extent which would cause
money to be spent where 1t is not needed
and thus deprive worthy objects OF their
necessary funds. Our zone Normal

our State supports. It is true that al
ter hard work in red-tape lines often
her graduates are usually supplied with
some school each session, but the majority
OF them have to fall back on the i've
months schools, which pay one hundred
and fifty dollars year. In the cities
the graduates of their High. School are
usually given the preference. Should
this be the case. when they are not
licensed to teach? However, were it a
fact that normal graduates are given
these positions. all can't expect to be 10
Gated in towns and cities. Neither can
they afford. after having spent at lea st
two and a half or three sessions at
state Normal, to live on one hundred
and fifty dollars a year. In great
many cases our teachers have gone IN
debt for their education. One year at
the normal costs at least one hundred
and fifty dollars. Now, who IS aole 10
solve the problem here stated!
Given twelve and a half dollars per
month to support ones self on. and at
the same time pay a debt OF three or
four hundred dolars!
In this, as we'll as in many other cases,
the ever-plodding country-school teacner
must work out her own salvation. Would
it not be better before putting money
into other normals to spend some IN CIV
ing the public schools OF our State longer
sessions. so that the graduates sent OUT
each year from our one Norman may
be decently supported? me "rl!er "

THE souTH,s INDICATION.

Bismarck is said to have remarked some
time, somewhere, that History is just
Z 1T may take thirty, maybe forty. years
for Justice, but history is just The
Z truth Of this aphorism has been demon
.st,ated in a number OF instances,
and it is being demonstrated now
IN the case OF the Confederate war.
THE sober, second thought is COM
inEssto the country after nearly forty
years 1t is just thirty-seven years since
tie close of that civil conflict. 1t is
curious thing that the lighter pen of the
novelist is working more rapidly than the
serious efforts of the historian to bring
about the change Of heart in this country.
The reader of a cut-and-dried history
goes along STEPPED in the prejudice OF
I his section. prepared to battle over every
clause that he imagines is ininical to
his beliefs; whereas the novelist subtly
lifts the reader of his feet and carries
him with a rush, in the midst Of dra-
matte action, to the conclusion at which
3 The novelist is intentc upon his arriving.
There is not one man in a half a million
that has taken the trouble to wade
-
! through the overwhelming mass of docu-
ments relative to the Confederate war
and the so-called Reconstruction. 1t is a
physical impossibility for man to cover
all that ground unless he gives up his
entire life to the labor-and much good
St will do him in the end But the novel
ist. with his dramatic instinct and poetic
license overlooks the whole scene of
action. arranges the great incidents in
dramatic perspective. and by intuitive
condensation and skllful arrangement
oyerwhelms the reader by the swiftness
and intensity Of his story's action. 1t is
here that The historical novel comes in
as q popular educator. Men and women
that viii not study history will read his
torical novels.
The historical novelist, depending for
his popularity upon the favor of the we'll
Informed public OF to-day. studies his
historical background thoroughly and
~ritcs about 1t with care. He can't at
ford to make any mistakes in his matters
B of fact. OF course. his point OF view
must affect his narrative: and what he
81 slyrItes .1aa a real influence upon his
reader: and thus the great work OF bring
