The Fox Hunters

The Grafton hounds met at 7 O'Clock
Saturday morning at Mountsville, u
miles from Upperyille. Only fair field
was out. Hounds were cast into the
woods and a find was made almost at
once. The fox was viewed by farmer,
only to be carried away few minutes
later by another fox crossing the trail.
The hounds went away for 40 minutes,
when they disappeared, the field being
unable to hold the hot pace.
The only accident was a fall by one of
the riders, whose name is not known,
who broke his nose over a stone wall.
The hunting colony has been added
to by the arrival of Mrs. Robert Perkins,
Miss Bird, Charles Bird and Mrs. Stur
gis, all of Boston, at Middlesex head
quarters. James Roosevelt, member of
the Grafton Hunt, arrived Friday night
and is at Grafton headquarters.
The meet today OF the Middlesex
hounds will be at Beaver Dam Bridge,
near the marble quarry.

dlesex hounds, was arrested Saturday
on a warrant sworn out by Mr. A.
Payne, over whose land Mr.. HigginsOn
had ridden inadvertently. Mr.. Higgin-
sou compromised the matter by the pay
ment of $50.
The trials will end at shutdown Tues
day This was definitely determined by
Judges Charles McEachran and Hallam
L. Movius at a meeting held yesterday,
when the question of appointing sub
stiute judge in the place Of james X.
Maddux, OF Warrenton, who has resign
ed, also cams up. 1t was decided that
Mr.. Smith, master Of Grafton, could not
appoint another judge, and that unless
Mr.. Maddux returned the two remaining
judges should make the award. Mr..

Maddux to return in time for the final
meeting of the judges, which will prob
ably take place Tuesday night, when

by the authorities Of the Institute, Tor II
the cadets by organization and combi-
nation could demand and secure i'm
muuity from the rules of discipline and
conduct prescribed for them, then the In
stitute could not be conducted IN the
manner and for the purpose for which
it was created, and it would lose the es-
sential feature of its creation.
The Board of Visitors is composed of
eleven members, among them the Adj
iutant General and Superintendent OF
Public Instruction ;all of whom were pres
ent at the meeting just ended save the
SUPERINTENDENT of Public Instruction.
Eight of the members OF the Board are
graduates of the Institute; they have trod
the same path that the present cadets are
treadiug. Can it not he assumed that
they feel as deep, if not Il greater, interest
in this institution than those who have
not passed through its course? That
they experience a livelier interest in the
real or imaginary trials of the cadets than
those who know nothing of the life of a
cadet? That they have more informa-
ton with respect to the conditions exist
ing at the Institute than those who have
no knowledge of or information upon the
subject?
They realize that these young men are
now standing upon the verge OF man
hood, at the very gate oI life, with all OF
its trials, hoYes, ambitions, successes,
and, alas, disappointments. end that the
path to this entrance if attended with
self-denial, application, obedience and
submission to constituted authorities will
be valuable preparation for the struggle
which is the LOT of man. In this crisis
of the affairs of the Institute the Board
of Visitors should receive the support OF
the public as well as Of those more deep
ly interested in its welfare.

Where the Blame Belongs.

Alta banquet of the Chicago Mer-
chants Club Saturday night, Sir Cheng
Tung Liang, the Chinese minister to the
United States, was the guest of honor
and delivered the principal address Of
the evening. He discussed commercial
possibilities between the United States
and China.
The minister, while speaking in the
most courteous manner, and frequently
evoking the applause of his listeners,
laid indirectly at the door of the United
States the responsibility for the boycott
recently instituted in China against
American goods. He asserted that the
numerous cases Of hardship and unjust
treatment which had been imposed by
over.zAalous American officials on the
immigration of Chinese of the exempt
classes had so worked on the f. eings OF
the Chinese nation that the regrettable
boycott followed.

knowledge yet as to where the total will
reach. OF the nearly $25, 900 subscribed
in Philadelphia $40, 100 was turned in
in twenty minutes. The recent bloody
scenes in Russia, it is believed, exceed
those through which the Hebrew race
passed in ancient times, and they have
naturally brought forth protests from all
civilized countries. The end is not yet,
as fierce men in the garb Of Christianity
are seemingly bent upon exterminating
the descendants of Abraham who unfor

She was paralyzed in the legs at this

ran upstairs, where she threw herself
to the floor and revolved on l1er back

again.
The sixth personality was in May,
1896, when she appeared as a sweet
child, but totally ignorant of spelling,
reading and writing. This is the per-

satisfactorily.
In the seventh personality that of
June, 1895, she remembered clearly
her early childhood, but not her illness,
and subsequent period. This stage
lasted a fortnight
The eighth personality in June, 1896,
came with a fit of conoubions and a
complete loss of memory. The patient
said she had been born the day be-
fore. She called her father Tom and
Ter mother Mary. 1t lasted three days.
In the ninth personality, October,
1896, the transition came gradually.
Fits of temper were noticed; she talked
like young infant and could not walk,
hut she could speak a little French, of
which language she was quite ignorant
in the normal period.

1896, was blind and imbecile stage.
