A Double Compliment.
Wilmington Star.

Wilmington Star.
Referring to the recent Inaugural
ton of DR. Edwin \. Alderman as
president OF the Virginia University,
the Boston Herald says this in a long
editorial:
DIR. Alderman was born in Viii
mington, \. C., III 1861. and grad
uated from Il North Carolina college
All his mature life has been spent III
educational work and he represents
the scholarship OF the South today
as conspicuousiy as President Eliot
represents that of New England He
is Il progressive man but no radical.
We wish that. under Dr. Alderman,
the University OF Virginia would be-
come more q national university. and
less a sectional university. There has
been a feeling that young mep from
the North would not be welcome
there, or. at all events. would not be
comfortable, unless they repressed all
expression of the sentiments and
opinions in which they have been nur-
tured; in other words, that they would
not enjoy such hospitality, intellec-
tual and social. as Southern young
men find in Harvard. Yale and Prince
ton. While slavery existed, while the
embittered hostility Ofthe war period
was still controlling, perhaps, Il diff
ferent state Of things could not have
reasonably been expected. But we
would be glad to see the University
OF Virginia, with all its enlarged OPP
pOrtunities, and it's historical tradi-
tiOns, become a resort for Young men
from all over the land We are sure
that it might thus accomplish a great
service OF reconciliation and patriot
ism. Many a Northern father would
be glad to have his son come under
the influence of the high sentiments
of personal and intellectual honor
that have ever prevailed there.
In the above there is Il high com
pllment for one of the most remark
able men Wilmington ever produced.
There is still Il splendid recognition
of the high standard OF manhood in
the South We have no doubt that
a young man from the North could
attend the Virginia University orr any
other Southern educational institu-
ton with as little, if not less, of sec
tionaism OF disagreeable nature as
would be found in any institution at
the North. If not. it is time that The
broadest spirit should take posses
sion of our universities, for the South
stands ready to successfully dispute
that there is any greater national
pride in the Republic than animates
the people of the South.

feeling which it evidences. An idea,
however, of its drift and spirit may
be had from the excerpts above and
from these closing sentences:
"With entire loyalty to it's past and
to the men and women who made
that part articulate and command
ing, the men and women OF the new
North have Travelled so far out of
sectiOnalism and into nationalism.
To this common ground the
men and women Of the new South
and the new North are coming that
they may plant the nation, prepared
alike in the old North and the old
South, on immoyable foundations of
righteousness, of mutual comprehen-
sion and sympathy, of fellowship in
the faith Of the fathers for the service
OF humanity.'

An autograph letter from Willie Jones
granddaughter, Mrs. William W. Aston,
who is now living in Isle OF Wight coun-
ty, Va, in answer to one of inquiry re-
gardinG this statement, says: You ask
did John Paul Jones change his name in
compliment to my grandfather Willie
Jones? | have always heard that he did,
and there is no reason to doubt the fact
Not only have | always heard it, but it
was confirmed by my cousin, Mrs. Hub
bard wife OF Colonel +. Hubbard. from
Virginia, while in Washington in 1886.
with her husband. who was a member
of Congress. She then met a nephew OF
John Paul Jones, who sought her out on
hearing who she was. He told her of
hearing his uncle and family speak OF the
incident often, and his great devotion to
the family, so that, in my opinion, you
can state it as a historical fact This
lady is more than eighty years old, but
her letter is full of love and veneration
for the name of her honored grand
parents and the associations OF her child
hood
Appended to this statement is the
name of Mrs. Ida Wilkins, who resides
at Weldon, and who enjoys, in~ the
language of Colonel Burgwyn, a well
earned reputation for careful re-
search and enthusiastic interest III
matters pertaining to her State.
The subject grows in interest, and
we are glad we raised the question.
In yesterdays paper we published an
article from Mr.. S. j. Quinn, of Fred
ericksbug, in which he declared that
John Paul took the name Of Jones in
order to conceal his identity. 1t is
we'll known that on one OF his voyages
he had a difficulty with IL carpenter
named Maxwell, and as result of the
| INJURIES received Maxwell died, and
John Paul was charged with murder.
John became incensed and left his
| native land for America. He found
his way to Fredericksburg, where his
| brother lived, and catching the spirit
of American independence, he Joined
the American navy with the determi-
nation of ''carrying the war into
Africa,' so to speak. He well knew
that if he should be captured he would
be tried for both treason and murder,
and to escape Identification in the
event of capture he assumed the
name of Jones. Such is Mr.. Quinn s
story, and it is the most plausible we
have heard.
