Remarkable mar that he Is In SO
many respects. General Oyama is a
little more than remarkable In one
thing. Here Is u son OF Satsuma. a
soldier q product, OF the transition

ca uron The far eastern ideal Of a
great man in whom Il great or heroic
deed Is always supposed to cover a
multitude OF sins, There he stands
today In his siy'y.third year. Judged
by Christian, or Buddhist, or Confu-

a stain, and altogether he Is a gentle

The historian whose eyes see be.
meath the surface of things might, in
ms hung p 'fter truth, look for the
reason OF il all in the person OF the
Marchioness Oyama. A graduate Of
Vassar, her life is a living history of
the progress of Nippon womanhood,
quite as much as that Of the field mar
shall is of militant Nippon. She was
one OF the first band Of young girls
sent abroad by the Toxic government
as the pioneers Of worldwide educa-
ton among the daughters Of her coun-
Try. Her international culture has
given her rare qualifications to be
n Of the leaders Of our women. And
it Is no secret Of our history that up

most approved methods. We have
made tens Of thousands of rolled
bandages, and fifteen thousand Of the
first aids, and we are still making
them. The society includes the
ladies of our highest class downward

OF u nobility, etc. You can not
realize how earnest the ladies OF our
upper class are unless you know their
life intimately. They who never
dressed themselves without maids
waiting on them. they who never held
in their hands anything heavier than
their handkerchiefs, they who never
went outside of their houses without
two or three attendants, all come
alone to the hospital with their little
lunch baskets and their bundle con-
tanning their nurses uniforms. My
daughter was on the committee to get
up New Years presents for the SOL
diers at the front. OF course, 1t was
to-send to them all, but it
was better that even a few should
have their hearts gladdened than
none at all when they were doing SO
much for their country. The young

William and Mary College Won
by Score of 6 to 0 In Bril-.
liant Football Contest:
GAME WAS IN WILLIAMSBURG
Hampton Eleven Had Never Practiced
Together Before But Were Able to
Keep the colIcsians From Scoring
Until Nearly the Ending of the Last
Half of the Game.

Notwithstanding that the football
eleven of the Hampton Athletic AS
ISOLATION met defeat at the hands of
the William AMI Mary college eleven
III Williamsburg yesterday afternoon,
the battle was one OF the ficrcest seen
IN the old capital for several sum
mers.
1t was the first time that the Ath-
letics have played this season md, in
fact, the first time that the entire team
has ever been on gridiron as whole.
Therefore the score of to 0 shows
that Hampton has some strong ma.
terlal in the eleven and all that IS
lacking is team work and practice.
Hamptonians in Good Form.
For the first half of the contest the
llamptonians held the collcgians down
TO tic. and il was only within u
few minutes of the ending of the last
half that William and Mary succeed
ed in sending man over lIampton's
goal line for n touchdown. William
and Mary pnnted the ball within The
ten yard line and by hard work around
left end finally forced a man over
the line. 1t was easy goal and the
score ended there. 6 to 0.
According tothose who saw the con.
test Hampton put up the best game,
but rs the men on the local eleven
have been practiclng but short while
naturally they were too soft and
short "winded" for the battle. An.
other feature favorable 20 the Col,
