1t Came Harf.

In France, as in most other cOun
tries, it is necessary to give ones age
when making a statement in 3 court OF
justice as we'll as In many other official
proceedings. But French women OF
mature years are noted above all other
women for their unwillingness to state
their age.
On one occasion a lady who had tC
testify was accompanied to the court
by a numerous company of her friends,
and when the magistrate asked, How
old are you 2'' there was such a cough
ing and clearing Of thrOats as of pee
pie suffering from severe colds that all
that could be heard In the courtroom
was "-ty years !"
Through the amiability of the mag
istrate this more than half suppressed
response was allowed to stand, but the
tribunals are not always so 1enient.
On another. occasion a magistrate ask
ed woman:
"What is your age, madam p
whatever YOU choose, SIR" ans wer
ed the lady. She was under oath.
~ 0u may put down forty five years,
then. said the magistrate to the cler k.
What is your occupation, madam y
Sir" said the witness, you have
made mistake of ten years in my
age.
PUT down fifty five years, ,then," said
the magistrate, Your residence''-
"Sir," exclaimed the lady, my age
| is thirty five years, not fifty-tive.'
cat last we have your statement
said the magistrate, and he proceeded
with the examination.

GEN. SHIPP'S RETIREM ENT
FROM ". MI.

The Richmond Times-Dispatct
in a recent editorial, had the TO-
lowing to say of the retirement o
General Scott Shipp from tn
Virginia Military Institute:
The announcement of Genera
Scott Ships resignation as super
intendent of the Virginia Militar,
Institute has been received will
universal regret throughout Vir
GINA. For fifty years he has beer
connected with the institution
Whom lad of sixteen he entered
as a cadet and led the brave boys
in the famous fight at New Market,
He served twenty-eight years as
commandant of cadets, and since
1890 he has been superintendent.
In all that time there has been no
whisper against his personal or
official character, nor against his
fidelity, and as for his efficiency az
an executive officer, the fact that
the institute is to-day more pros
porous than every before in its his
tory bears sufficient testimony.
General Shipp has won for him
self q national reputation as educa-
tor and discipIinarian. He has
given his life ard talents to the
cause of education, and he is
fairly entitled to retire from active
service with all the hOnors and
emoluments, both from the State
and educational philanthropy,
which such a distinguished service
merits.
His letter of resignation is manly
and modest, and it contains a
valuable hint to the State. "The
proper conduct Of an institution
which attempts to enforce military
discipline, says he, "when the
essential basls of discipline,
physical force,is wanting,is difficult
beyond the conception of any one
who has not had the responsibility
of the effort imposed upon him."
AS for the Times-Dispatch, it
believes in maintaining discipline
at whatever cost, and has always
90 declared in discussing the affairs
of the military schools OF the
State. If our schools, and especially
our military schools, do not
incu,cate in their pupils the spirit
of obedience they are failing in the
Fundamental essential of educa-
ton. Rebellion and insubordina-
ton must never be countenanced
or dickered with, and rule No.
of every military school should be
obedience or expulsion; and the
rule should be rigidly and i'm
partially enforced.

THE BEGINNING OF SCHOOL
TERMS

This week witnesses the begin
ming in Lexington Of another
school term at the two institutions
of learning here.the Virginia Mill.
tary Institute and Washington and
Lee University. The patronage
of these two notable schools is
drawn principally from the South
ern States, but nearly every section
of the United States ana many
foreign countries is represented
among the students every year.
The return of large number Of
students and cadets each year
guarantees the preservation Of the
traditions of the institutions.
The attendance at both schools
this year promises to eclipse the
enrolment of former years. The
influx of from seven hundred to
nine hundred young men, nearly
half of whom are thrown into the
family life of the community, pre-
sents oppoi tunities for entertain
ing the stranger within the
gates" not enjoyed by May com
munities. From pecuniary
standpoint, the presence of these
young men means profit to many
and means Of support to not a
few. Their legitimate expendi-
tures are felt through all the rami-
fieations of business life In Lex
ington. Nor is it confined to the
town alone, but excellent home
markets are opened up for the
farmer, the huckster and the
dairymsn. But above and beyond
the mere opportunities of financial
gain are the privileges of impress
sing upon the hearts and minds of
these hundreds of young men the
ideals and traditions that cling
10 the name of community which
Is rich In all that goes to make up
noble manhood and pure woman
hood.

Mar. G. L. Henderson Killed in
Richmond

Mr.. Caruthers Campbell Hen der
son, son of the late Mr.. II. H .Hender
son of Lexington, was murdered il
Richmond early last Thursnoy
morning. The circumstances Of
the killing are somewhat myste
rious, but the particulars seem tt
be as follows:
| 1t appears that Mr.. Henderson,
who has been living in Richmond
for the past eight or nine years,
left his home shortly after 8 O'Clock
Wednesday night, stating that he
was going down town for a short
time. He did not return home
that night. Next morning his
family became uneasy, and learn
ing that an unknown man had
been hurt the night before and had
died in a hospital, one of his sons
went to the morgue, where the
body of the dead man was, and
recognized his father.
Newspaper reports of the tragedy
state that the alteration which
resulted in Mr.. Henderson's death,
occurred about IL o'clock Wednes-
day night. The place was in alley
near Broad and First streets, in
front of saloon. A colored girl
saw him stricken down and saw a
man run through the an alley and
scale fence to lot in his flight.
The police found man who saw
the murder and knew positively the
murderer, but strangely enough
did not send him before the
coroner's jury, whose verdict was
murder by an unknown.
The police claimed On Friday
and Saturday to know the man
wanted and said he was far from
the city and that they would get
him. One arreet was made in
Richmond by an over Jealous officer
which proved to be a mistake.
Witnesses from the house 10
Broad street proved that Mr.. Hen
derson had not been in it. The
house is kept by a woman and
there were men and women there
dancing and drinking.In the house
two young married women of Roam
)ke--Mrs. Muse and Mrs. BONN
we're arrested aud held as witnesses
and we're let go home on Friday on
The return excursion. A bunch of
young men were pulled
'1t of the place and testified be-
ore the jury, pale and trembling
est their names should get into
he papers. Not witness knew
Mr.. Henderson or heard of his
icing in the house.
The remains were brought to
lexington Friday, reaching here

o'clock the interment took place,
