Only one thing marred the perfec-

fact that all the visitors could not get
in the chapel to witness the awarding

dress TO the graduates.
But that will be different by anoth-
er year. The board of trustees
which met just before the commence
ment, decided that the chapel must
be enlarged during the coming sum
Inor.
The exercises yesterday morning
were peculiarly beautiful. In the
first place. st. Mary's is situated on
one of the most beautiful spots III or
about Raleigh with its spacious
grounds. smooth lawns and grand old
trees. Then the girls at st. Mary's
are always pretty and refined, and
this year is no exception to the rule
Moreover the exercises were not too
long, splendidly arranged and car
ried out accordingly. The procession
OF the girls from the main building to
the chapel yesterday was one of the
prettiest sights ones eyes could rest
upon. Great punches of the .ioveliest
flowers were bestowed upon the grad
yates by friends and altogether it was
an enchanting scene, in the perfect
spring weather.
The exercises in the parlors of the
main building began with the Over
ture Oberon of Won Weber. by Misses
Clifford and Burgwyn, Weeks and

Remember it is not tomorrow that you

tomorrow are mysteries which only
tomorrow will unfold. Next week will
be very much like this one. SO let Us

was burned at the stake. wes found
guilty on three of the six specifications

The specifications on which he was

Guilty of unministerial and unchris-
tian conduct in that he violated the
constitution of the Presbyterian

ing an unsound and unwise sermon.
Guilty of charging, in the event Of
the lynching of the alleged criminal,
the responsibility therefor upon the
judges of the courts Of New Castle
county and the state of Delaware, and
thereby tending to lessen the rever-
ence and respect to the constitutional
authorities intrusted with the mainte-
nance of civil law.
Guilty of advocating the lynching OF
the alleged criminal if his trial be de-
layed, or if found guilty, through some
technically he be not given capital
punishment.
After Mr.. Elwood had been found
guilty a committee was appointed to
fix punishment. This committee con
sisted of the Revs. T. A. McCurdy, S
R. Shaw, ]. L. McElmoyle, H. L. Duye
kinck and J. r. Hodgson. After due
deliberation the committee recon
mended that Mr. Elwood be cautioned

administered preparatory to a second
operation for appendicitis. BY his bed
side were his son, Harry Payne Whit
ney, and his daughter, Dorothy Whit
ney, as we'll as DR.. William T. Bull,
the chief surgeon in attendance.
Mr. Whitney was in his 64th year.
Mr.. Whitney was taken ill Friday
night at the performance of "Rigolet-
to" at the Metropolitan Opera House,
and had to leave before the opera was
ended. DR.. Walter B. James, the Whit
ney family physician, was summoned,
and found that the condition of the pa
tient was such that after consultation
an operation was decided upon, and
was performed by DR.. Bull. The pa
tient rallied so well that it was fully
believed he would recover.
Mr.. Whitney's condition was very
grave however, on Sunday and Mon
day, and at a consultation held yester-
day the conclusion was reached that
the only hope for the patient lay in a
second operation.
A bulletin issued in the morning
stated that there had been a slight i'm
provement in the patients condition
but shortly before 8 o'clock alarming
symptoms were noted, and hurried
preparations were made for a second
operation. MI. Whitney was placed
under the influence of ether, bu'
whether the operation was proceeded
with or not is not known.
When the physicians perceived tba,
the patient was in danger of death

father and in a few minutes he had
breathed his last Oxygen was used

cteveland ereatlv Shocked.

Princeton. N. j., Feb. 3.-Mr. Cleve-
land was deeply moved when he learn.
ed of Mr.. Whitney's death. He said:
1.-THE news Of Mr.. Whitney's death
has greatly shocked me. As l think of
him, my mind, passing beyond recent
years, dwells upon the days of my as
sociation with him in high official duty
and recalls the time when l had the
opportunity to enjoy his unreserved in
timacy and friendly companionship.
Our relations have never changed. but
the exigencies of life have forbidden
recent close intercourse.
'FWr. Whitney had more calm, force
full efficiency than any man I ever
knew. In work that interested him he
actually seemed to court difficulties
and to find pleasure and exhilaration
in overcoming them. His conquest over
the obstacles he encountered in under
taking to build up our navy afforded
him greater delight than the contem-
plation of the great results he achieved
in his department of the government.
His Judgment was quick, clear and as
tonishingly accurate; and, when it was
called into action, his mental poise
was sd complete that neither passion
nor irritation could lead it astray."
