Tillinghast e. Murdock are counsel for
quite lengthy and are TO the two counts
in each indictment specifically and 10 the
indictment as a whole. In regard 10 the
first count there are three objections
one is that it is not alleged in the first
count that any pretence in writing was
used or presented TO the United National
bank. The other objections are that IL Is
not alleged in that count that any privy
or false token w1+ rsed or presented 10
the bank named also that it appears by
the FIRST count that the certificate OF
stock referred 10 was a genuine certih-
cate and was not false presence in
writing false, privy or token.
As 10 the second count the objections
are that the indictment charges that de-
fendant conspired TO defraud the United
National Bank by alleging they were the
owners OF 100 shares OF the capital stock
OF the Norfolk and Western Railway
company when IL appears on the face OF
the indictment that the certificate OF
stock negotiated was valid certificate OF
stock OF said Norfolk and Western Rail
way Company. That the charge consists
or a representation OF ownership when Il
appears that legitimate stock certif-
cate was presented. And that IL does not
appear that any trick or device was used
10 mislead the officers of the United Ma
tional Bank or prevent them from read
ing the certificate.
The final objection 20 the indictments as
Whole are that a count for false pre-
fences and count for conspiracy cannot
be joined In the same indictment and the
DEFENDANTS ask for judgment and that
they may be dismissed from further
trouble in the premises
Ihis latest phase Of the rather notable
controversy was not unexpected as the
detendants Gilman and Rice announced
immediately on their arrest in San Fran
cisco that they were innocent OF any i'm
proper conduct and would fight the local
bank on every possible point.

by Superintendent Walter II. Small, who
spoke in part as follows
II am glad to stand here this morning

practically all improvements in teachers
methods have been made and now We
have a system that cannot fail to bring
results. Let me appeal to the teachers
that they will not grow pessimistic.
GIVING BEST EFFORTS.

EMPHASIZE A FEW THINGS.
"As office holders and thus fellow

things and one is that you as class

other set OF office-holders In the state.
"There are three things To emphasize

REVIVAL IN EDUCATION

The month Of May has been set
apart by the Cooperative Educa-
ton Commission of Virginia
for the purpose of conducting
an aggressive campaign through
out the State in the interest of
public school education. Mass
meetings are to be held in every
county. which are to be addressed
BY school men of established re-
putation. 1t is hoped and expect
ed that the impetus given to pub
aic school advancement will be so
decided that the result in the
coming years will more than COM
peusate for the prssert efforts.
We devote considerable space
this week to contributions on edu-
catlonal subjects, which We hearth
~ commend to the consideration
al our readers. Several articles
are crowded out of this issue for
lack of space, but they will appear
next week. And during this
month we invite a free discussion
OF our eduestiona. needs, feeling
sure that an Interchange of opin-
ions will rebound to the improve
ment of our Rockbridge schools.
Ths keyuotes of the present
campaign are longer school terms,
more pleasant houses, better equip
uent. fewer schools and a high
school within the reach of-all. We
feel that we express the sentiment
of a majority OF the patrons of
Roekbridge schools when we say
chat they heartily endorse these
proposed Improvements.

DIR. DENNY HONORED

Washington and Lee University
Bas been signally honosed by the
appointment of President George
H. Denny as one of the trustees OF
a $40, 100000 gift by Andrew
Carnegie, to provide annuitief
for college professors who are un-
sble by age or other disabilities to
continue in active service. Presi-
dent Denny is one of two repres-
entatives on the board from the
South, the other being President
Edward B. Craighill of Tulane
University, New Orleans, which is
complimentary alike to his recog-
nixed abilities and to the Univer'
sity of which he is the executive
head. Mr.. Carnegie in a letter to
the board of trustees who viii
administer this fund, states he
las reached the conclusion that
the least rewarded of all the pro-
fessions is that of the teacher
in our higher educational institu
tions. Able men hesitate to adopt
teaching as q career, and many
old professors whose places should
be occupied by younger men can.
not afford to retire.
The fund created by Mr.. Carne,
gle will produce an annual in
qOms of 100000. The beneficial.
pies are colleges and universities
in the United States, Canada and
New Foundland. State and sec
tartan institutions cannot enjoy
the benefits of this fund, Mr.,
Carnegie's purpose being to help
those institution which are unable
to provide for the pensioning OF
their faithful professors who have
become incapacitated by reason OF
sge or infirmities. fI~" -
