Closing Exercises.

1ue CiOSluS 0AOASAeoS VI oAh1oo1o
Collegiate Institute were opened
Sunday with the bsccalaureate SER
mon by the Rev. r. S. Truesdale of
Columbia. This eloquent young
divine of the Methodist Episcopal
church, South, was at his best and
his sermon was rich in wholesome
advice to the pupils of the Institute
and the community at large who are
preparing themselves to enter the
unequal conflict of life and do battle
with it's stern realities. From the
commencement to the end of it's de-
livery the preacher held the undivid-
ed attention of his large congregation
and his thoughts carried with them
the inspiration and impress of the
divine spirit. Seeds were sown that
day which will spring up and bear
a bountiful harvest to the honor and
glory of God, the magnitude of which
cannot be realized until the great
day of final reckoning when mortality
shall be swallowed up in Immortality.
The exercises Monday afternoon ct
the intermediate and primary de-
partments in the court house were
instructive, elevating and of char
acter which brought out prominently
the careful training OF mind which
students had received from their
instructors, Mrs. George Sawyer and
Miss I'Aus Meetze, during the term.
Each little child did we'll it's part and
each received rounds of applauee
from the crowded audience.
The Collegiate department held its
exercises in ne court house in the
evening. Long before the hour set
for the exercises to begin the house
was packed to overfowing with all
classes of our people. The gradual
ing class this year was large one
and this hour was the crowning suc-
cess of the years of hard study in
their efforts to acquire knowledge
The exercises were of high order
of literary and musical production
and composition, and were delivered
and rendered in highly creditable
manner. The literary scholars have
been under the efficient tutilage of
Prof. O. D. Seay, for the past five
years and the manner in which his
pupils distinguished themselves is
evidence of the proficiency with
which he has trained them.
The musical department is under
the management of Mrs. Fannie Roof,
a lady endowed with musical gift of
q superior order and of refined and
cultured tastes. Without any attempt
at fulsome fattery we can truthfully
say that as an instructor in music,
Mrs. Roof has no superior in the
State and the marked improvement
of her scholars bears US out in this
assertion.
At the close of the programme;
County Superintendent of Education,
John S. Derrick, in few we'll timed
and appropriately chosen remarks,
presented the diplomas to the gradu-
ating class. The first honor of the
class was awarded to Mr.. Pickens
Roof and the second to Miss Lucille
E6rd, and thus closed very profit
able and pleasant evening" eejoyment.
The programme of both occasions
will be found elsewhere.

a GOOD LAW.

Referring to a recent editorial in The
Times on lone Course Of Lynching,'
based on a trial at Greensboro, n c.,
Hon George j. Hlndley. Of Mathews.
Va. calls attention to a statute recently
enacted in Virginia, and adds:
THE Legislature of North Carolina
can prevent a recurrence OF such cases
as the one mentioned at Greensboro by
enacting a law similar TO OURS. and the
courts Of this State can prevent such
unfortunate trials by excluding from
the courtroom all persons whose pres
ence is not deemed necessary, as pro-
vided by the said statute.
II refer TO an act approved March s,
1900. chapter SIS. Acts 1ss9-l9S0. page SS22.
/ may be pardoned for saying that l was
the patron Of the bill. and my object
in introducing it was TO prevent just such.
trials as the one at Greensboro and
thereby to do away with one OF the popu-
lar excuses for lynching.
The courts probably have this power
inherently without such statute, and
some OF the judges in Virginia had ex-
erciscd the right, I have been told, in a
number of cases. The authorities seem
to support the view that the courts
have the inherent power to exclude the
public from the courtroom when deemed
best for the public interest, and probably
the court at Greensboro could have given
the proper protection to the unfortunate
lady who had to testify in that case for
the Commonwealth by exercising this
power. But it was because the courts
were not generally exercising it, and to
set all doubts at rest as to their power,
that I introduced this bill and the Legis-
latlre of Virginia enacted the law
AIR. Hunlcy's communication is timely.
In trials for criminal assault the court
should exclude all persons except those
who are directly concerned. especially
while the witness is being examined and
cross-examned. 1t is terrible enough
for a modest and shrinking woman to
be assaulted by a brutal man; it Is cruel
to subject her to the further torture of
relating her experience in a court of
Justice before promiscuous crowd, who
from maudlin curiosity strain their ears
to catch every word.
A trial such as this is awful enough
at best and in such an ordeal the court
should use every discretionary power to
save the feelings of the witness.

THE HORSE SHOW.

The Richmond Horse Show has now
become an established institution Of this
community. and there is every reason
to believe that It will continue for Q
long time to come to be the chiefest at
traction OF the year. It is not altogether
Horse Show. 1t Is social gathering.
and the immense crowds that are now
assured Will be a big show within them
selves People will be brought together
in social intercourse, and the chit-chat
In the boxes and in knots Of spectators
here and there will be one OF the most
enjoyable features OF the entertainment
But there is practical side to the
Horse Snow. First OF all. 1t VIII en-
courage the stock-raising industry in
virginia. We have splendid grazing
lands and we can produce as fine stock
as can be produced in any other State.
1t costs very little more to breed blood-
ed horses than to breed horses of the
common variety. and it would be good
thing for the State of Virginia Il there
could be- little more effusion OF good
blood into our horse flesh We feel
sure that the Horse Show In Rich
mond and the Horse Shows in The varl-
Gus parts of the State will have the eff
feet to improve the breed Of horses, and
with improvement in horse flesh there
viii be an Improvement throughout the
entire stock industry OF the Common
wealth.
Apart from all this, the Richmond
Horse Show will attract large numbers
of visitors from other sections, and 1t
is a good thing for Richmond or for any
other city to have such an attraction.
In times past we had the old State Fair,
and then We had an exposition, and
finally we had Carnival. These were
all good in their way, but they raj their
course, and now the Horse Show has
come, and it must be confessed that it
Is the best OF all the devices that we
nave tried to bring desirable visitors.
Most Of the people who come here to see
the Show are people of means. and the
merchants OF the city will enjoy fine
trade during Horse-Show week.
Richmond needs a season of recrea-
non, and the opportunity is at hand.
Let us enjoy it and be thankful.
