UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA

True to Jeffersons Ideals It Remains q
Really Democratic Institution.
From The University of Virginia, by
Thomas Nelson Page in April Scrib-
/ ner's.
Thru the years, notwithstanding her
want of means, this university, which
sprang in her, beauty from Jefferson s
teeming brain, has continued to perform
The work which he laid out for her and
down for her to follow, with her eye
single to two great principles-the high
est standard of scholarship and the
highest standard of honor. Thru. all
acknowledgements and in the face Of all
difficulties, she has been true to his
chosen motto, eye shall know the truth
and the truth shall make you free -
which he was happy enough to stamp
in the life of the institution.
Automatic hills, with her classical ar:
cades stretching away, bathed in the
Virginia sunshine, she has from the first
taught her sons the nobility of truth
and hereby pointed them to freedom.
! Neither professor nor student can long
breathe that atmosphere and remain un'
true.
| Always cramped in her resources
often strained to the utmost to carry, on
| her work, she has yet carried IL ON tnTu
| the self-denia1 Of her professors. But
there has been this compensation, al

student life in Virginia, and simplicity

which stamps it's impression on the life

E.. II. HARTMAN AT WORK
Great Railroad Operator the incarnation
t<>.,. 49,, OF Speed and5ActIon. ~ i: i
Worlds Work.

-
In his office at 40 Broadway New
York, E. w. Hartman worked as few ,oi
the wealthy men Of the country have ever
worked. Day after day, week after week,
month after month, he labored at his
task. At his desk In the big inside office
he was to be found at almost any working
hour. He Is small man. very slightly
built, narrow-chested,. delicate in APP
pearance. At his desk he is a regular
whirlwind for energy. He goes thru his
correspondence, ana thru the hundred re-
rivaled in any office on Wall street.-the
region of speed. His stenographers must
keep the pace. He has a small army OF
them, and, report says, they work in re-
lays. He can keep them all busy. HI
is one Of the most rapid thinkers in the
street.; and his, action Is as quick as his
thought. -; :;E-r,,. :. is <,ses.a.:. /.
Between 1897 and 1900 Mr.. Hartman
mastered the detail of his railroads.. NJ
one who does not know the detail OF {

Thru those years he watched the growth
Of the traffic of his roads and all Of theil
competitors. He learned to judge Of tn.
comparative advantages OF declaring wa

the western markets. He measured will
a careful eye the chances of successful
war and profitable peace in the rich val
leys Of the coast, where his Oregon line
met the lines Of j. j. Hill, and out on tn,
plains Of Nebraska, where his traffi'
agents met the agents Of the Burlington

He mastered the rate problem.
He followed close upon the heels Of J. ]

He initiated Mr.. Hills methods, and it Il
said that he improved upon them. Some
times, by cutting rates. he fought hi

times, by traffic truce, by q joint sched

he placated him. Always, say the western

TURKISH GIRLS
I@Es3
Life in the Harem Not So Listless and
Dreamy as Depicted.

Dreamy as Depicted.
Turkish girls are not unpicturesque,
for they have style of their own; but,
instead of living a healthy outdoor life
most of the time, they seemto prefer TO
keep right out of sight in the privacy
of the harem. Perhaps this is because
when they walk abroad they are obliged
to wear those thick, long wells which
come right up to their noses, and leave
the rest of their charms to the imagina-
ton Of the beholder. This must be
very irritating to a girl with any pre-
tence to good looks, for altho a good
deal can be said to an impressicnable
young man by means of pair of eyes,
yet he generally likes to know rather
more about the girl than that before
he takes any defnitJ steps, as it were.
- How is he to know that she hasn't q
mouth the size of a healthy saucepan,
or, perhaps, nose about the shape of
which it would be kinder to say moth
ing7
Again, another very probable reason
why Turkish girls do not go out much
is because their husband does not know
exactly how many wives he has until
the stocktaking is over; and he natural
tly does not like to take a whole gang
Of them for a walk for fear he shall
miss one or two at the Bon Marche.
You see, if he left any behind, he would
would be very sad.
Turkish girls who have a husband

about harems various luscious but total
| ly misleading details have leaked ont
from time to time which tend to put
people of an inquiring nature under
a complete misapprehensian as to the
facts Of the case.
For instance, the generally accepted
idea seems to be that ladies of the
harem-one might almost call them
harem lilies-are attired in sort of
Giving picture" costume Of muslin.
Their amusements, too, are set down as
IlolIing on touches, with an attendant TO
fan the bluebottles away, and alterpat-
ing sips Of sherbet with slabs Of that
stodgy indigestible sweetmeat mis-.
named Turkish delight.
But tn ereality, / am sorry to say Is,
according to the latest releyations and
news from the front, quite different.
Their style Of dress emanates from
Paris now-atl east, that destined for holl.
day use; and on ordinary days they Toll

In the course of recent observations on
a farm at Markstown, Cullybackey, Coun-
ty Antrim, Ireland, workmen came upon
two large cavities, which are said to have
been subterranean dwellings before the
Introduction Of Christianity. They were
built of unhewn stones, their entrances
of such narrow dimensions as to protect
the Inhabitants from any danger OF inva-
sion. The cavities discovered consisted
OF a series of chambers, each measuring
about twenty feet long and five feet high,
all being perfectly formed. s

Another Sad Death.

The announcement Of the death
/ of Mrs. Joha M. Jones, which oc-
Cured about noon Friday, at her
Doe Hill home, occasioned wide
spread sorr ow, for she was one of
the truly good women of High
land. The circle Of her friendship
extended just as far as did her &C.
quaintanceship, for all who knew
her were impressed by her kindness
of heart and queenly virtues. The
home over which she presided, and
in the planning and making of
which she joined with her kind,
devoted husband, was one of the
prettiest in the county-none more
happy-and the synonym of hospi-
tally, comfort and contentment,
Much has been said and written
about the sorrows of life and the
sadness of death, but, from the
finite viewpoint. there is no phase
of either that affords a clearer in
stance Of blasted hopes and blight
ed prospects than the desolation
of a happy home-a home, perhaps
for years all aspiration and a dream,
but now real possession, the pro-
duct of "two minds with but a
single thought"
Despite the duty Of submission,
enjoined and made imperative by
the Sacred Word, the assurances OF
bliss and eternal joys beyond, our
mortal ears are deaf, for the time,
and the aching heart wonders that
the kind Father did not hold this
blessedness in reservation, yet lit
tie, in Difference to cherished hopes
and glad fruition of earth.
"For now we see through glass
darkly; but then face to face: now
we know in part, but then shall we
know even also as we are known.
Under all such circumstances,
the christian faith, which inspires
hope and be, cts submission, is onr
only solace and comfort.
A sketch of Mrs. Jones life, and
the account cf her death and burial
will be found in another column.

Dyphtheria.

A case Of dyphtheria is reported
in the family Of Mr.. j. Hull
Kramer, OH Allegheny mountain.
Mr.. Cliff Samples, son Of Mr..
Samuel P. Samples came in from
the lum Der camps Monday evening
and spent the night at the home
of Mr. Will Cobb in MONTEREY.
He was i'll at the time, but made
his way to Straight Creek on Tues
day. 1t now developes that he, too,
has dyphtheria, and the fact that
we have the dread disease both east
and west of US. with at least one
family exposed to it, should sound
a note Of warning, and the Board
of Health should take every pre-
cautionary measure possible.
Highland, or at least the Mont
Grey valley has not had a scourge
of this terrible disease for someth-
ing like thirty years, and no effort
should be spared to pre7ent a rep
etition of these memorable days.

Washington, May 3O.-The
destruction of the Russian squad

department was officially advised
of that fact this afternoon by
Minister Griscom at Toxic. His
message conveyed the further infor-
nation that Commander in-chief-
Rear Admiral Rojestvensky, Rear
Admiral Voelkersam and Rear Ad-
miral Nebogatoff were prisoners
of war. Admiral Rojestvensky
was seriously injured, shell hay
ing exploded near him.
The intelligence that six out OF
eight battleships have been destroy.
ed, the flagship among the number
and that the remaining two had
been captured. has borne out the
statement in these dispatches last
night that Togo's victory would be
found to be greater than generally
supposed.
Out of total mber of seven
protected cruisers, the Almaz was
the only one to ecape. 1t reached
