fortunate members Of her sex as one
who is not their social equal. She does
no regret that she is not in their posi-
ton, but she does deeply regret the
conditions which make it possible for
other women, no better than she, to
snub her and look at her as they do.
The pure woman of today, tho she
be poor and in obscurity is a thousand
times better than the society woman,
who painted and perfumed, is living a
life of deception and attempting to
make the world think she is all that her
position pictures her to be. The pure
upright woman of today is walking
with God and the good angels, while
the deceptive limitations Of that noble
sex who are looking upon her with
scorn and ridicule, are no more to be
compared with her than is the in
habitant of the lower regions to be
classed with the angels. We are glad
that there are only few of these So
called elite" but there are far too
many of them in the world.

Those who do not want TO run the

hold up their hands. Don't all speak
at once. No offense was intended in
the article Saturday relating the cir
cumstances attendant upon the finding
of the body of George Dressed. 1t was
stated that the deceased had been en-
gagged to lady who for reasons broke
the engagement and the man took to
drink. Eriends of the lady in ques-
tion object to the mention made Of
the circumstances which was prefaced
with cit is alleged, etc. The truth
of the matter is (and be it said to the
honor and credit of the lady that her
af1ianced came into her presence twice
in a condition she objected to, and
she told him if he did So again their
friendship would end He violated
his promise and the engagement was
broken.
Every effort was made to get proper
account of the race Saturday, which
was not ended until after the paper
had gone to press, and the gentlemen (?)
who object to the account as publish
ed, failed to come forward with the
facts at that time. but are willing TO-

principal speaker at the Sunday school

courteous way in which ii was done
was also appreciated on all sides, as
the Governor fully realized by the ex-
pressions of approval which rewarded

Was 1t Graft?

Some months ago st. Johns College
offered scholarships TO certain num-
ber of high school graduates and male
graduates from academies throughout
the state. Among these academies
was the Millersville Academy. This
year there were but two male gradu-
ates of the Millersville Academy, one
a doctor S son and the other the son
of a widow at Millersville, one of
whose sons graduated from st. John S
last year. The DOCTORS son said he
did not want the st. Johns scholar
ship, as he is going to enter medical
school in Baltimore this fall to study
medicine. The other boy desired the
scholarship but, it is alleged, the au-
thorities Of the Academy told him he
could not have the scholarship unless
the boys mother decided = certain
piece Of land to them. This the lady
refused to do. and the ambitious boy
came to Annapolis, consulted Presi.
dent Fell, of St. Johns College in the
matter and was promised the scholar
ship. 1t looks like case of graft at
the Millersville end Of the line. The
names of the parties concerned are
withheld at the request of the boy S
mother.

PEACE MEETING POSTPONED.

want is time, and they are getting
plenty of it. AT the request of the

to have taken place today has been
postponed until tomorrow.
Should the expected dispatch arrive
in time. however, NJ. Nitte says, the
meeting will take place as originally
fixed. Minister TakahiTa. in answer
to questions, stated that he had asked
for a postpOnement because of a de-
sire to be careful abou. ending the
conference, out of regard for Presi-
dent Roosevelt's efforts and because of
the momentous consequences involved.
The respective suites of the ENJOYS
are blue over the outlook. They have
all the trunks packed and accounts
adjusted and are ready to depart at a
moments notice. President Roose-
yelt's perseverance in his efforts to
bring the two sides together is said
to be irritating the Russians. The
following is the situation as 1t stands,

chase back from japan the northern
