but were no match for the Naval boys.
The Naval team repeatedly changed
men. The game was clean and devoid
Of foul playing. Cadet Frazer Of the

taken out Of the game. Captain E. b.

Horses on Court Day

There were few good horses sold
Monday. There were but a few buy
ers here. Perhaps dozen were sold
at prices that ranged from 800 to
$40. A number of old worn out frames
of horses were offered, but there were
10 bidders for them, the present owners
trying to avoid the wintering Of them.
The fact is apparent to any observer,
that the saleable horses have been
disposed of, and there are none Of that
quality or kind to attract buyers. A
horse in good flesh, OF moderate age
and size, will always sell.

Secretary Shaw's Address to the
w. l.. u. Students


Hon. Leslie M. Shaw, secretary
of the United States Treasury, de-
livered an interesting and instruc-
tive address before the students
Of Washington and Lie University
last Monday morning at 10 c. CLOCK.
The distinguished visitor reached
Lexington on the morning Balti-
more and Ohio train and was met
at the station by General Scott
Ship, superintendent Of the Vir-
GINA Military Institute, DR..
George H. Denny, president of
Washington and Lee University
and Mayor Samuel b. Walker. The
party at once drove to the Univer-
sitY chapel, where a large audience
had gathered, including the stu.
dent body.
Secretary Shaw was introduced
in felicitorS speech Of welcome
by DIR. Denny, and for over half an
hour he held the closest attention
of his interested audience. The
speaker was entirely informal n
his style, and from his opening
sentence enlisted the sympathy Of
his auditors. His theme was for
thorough equipment. Mr.. Shaw
said that he supposed the young
men would expect him 20 advise
them what line of work to pursue
in order to enjoy the greatest sue
cess. His facetious eply was, 81
Cont care what you do" and
after hesitating to give force to his
remark, concluded, provided 20 u
do it better than anybody else."
He said the business and profess
sional world wanted men prepared |
to do one thing, not many things. |
Many positions are now being fill
ed by men who are net quite equal
to the task. There are $4,000
men in So, positions, and there
are $40, 900 jobs awaiting the right
men. Specialize, prepare, study,
pay the price of success.
Mr.. Shaw said that as a young
man, looking out on life, he had
taken up his abode in a western
State, but found, as he thought,
few opportunities, few openings,
not even government land vacant.
The world was rot waiting for him.
On closer observation, however, he
discovered that there were many
neglected homesteads. Persons in
possession were not improving
heir opportunj ties, hence many of
hem were supplanted by others.
So in life, many neglected home
'teads. Prepare by thorough
work and study to occupy. Con-
he quoted distinguished
'ishJp who said, mature keeps a
store. Whoever lays
Town the price gets the goods"
At the conclusion of Secretary
'haw's address, DR.. Denny pre-.
ented Senator John w. Daniel,
Who for a few MON ents addressed
he young men. He expressed
zig pleasure at being present on
his occasion and spoke interest
ngly of the privileges and oppor-
unities Of College life, wherein
1en are trained to meet the stern
of after life. Both Sena- {
or Daniel ana Secretary Shaw
'ere vigorously arplauded for
heir sentiments.
Seated on the platform were
Carter Glass and H.
}. Flood, Mr.. Thomas Lee Moore.
Ir. G. B. Slemp, General Scott
hipp, and the faculty of Wash
lgton and Lee.

noon to return to Hot Springs, Va,
where he has been recuperating
since his recent illness, was obliged
to stop over at the jefferson Hotel
in Richmond. An early dispatch
to the Landmark stated that Mr..
Tucker had been taken from the
train at Richmond on account
of illness, but a later message
modified the first one by saying
that his condition is due probably
more than any other cause to tbs
fatigue of travelling. His sickness
is not at all serious. and few
days rest will probably restore
him.

Senator Daniel was the last
speaker. He began his address by
TIE discussion of national issues
and condemned the imperialistic
policy Of the Republican party.
He denounced the appropriations
of public money for governing our
foreign possessions, together with
the building of railroads and other
improvements connected there
with, while at the same time
public buildings are needed in
uany towns at home for the prop
er conduct of Legitimate business.
Referring to State politics he COM
mended the course of Virginia
Democracy in the statesmanlike
methods adopted in the administra.
ton of the government, which
had brought the Old Dominion to
the forefront of American Com
monwealths in the race for COM
mercial and industrial progress.
In discussing the tariff he said
that Republican administrations
had adopted system of protection
whereby the American consumer
was compelled to pay more for
certain lines of goods than the
same goods brought in foreign
markets. President Roosevelt had |
recommended a tariff revision but
Republican Congressman, in obedi-
ence to the wishes of the protected |
manufacturers, had declined to
take up the subject. And they
had also declined to give him
to have the Interstate
Commerce Commission revise ex |
orbitant railroad rates. Senator
Daniel closed with thrust at the
