Flans are on foot in railway circles

to keep on hand large number of

DISCIPLINE Is TELLING.
Middies Make a Much Better Showing
in Their Studies

ANNAPOLIS. Md, December 19.-The
decoration of the Christmas tree term
given to the order published annually at
the Naval Academy giving the names of
those midshipmen who are in danger Of
failing in the semi-annual examinations in
February, are fewer this year than last
In fact, the number OF middies warned is
only about half as great as last year.
About this time every year, upon the COM
pletion of the monthly examinations of
November, the name of every midshipman
who receives a mark less than a 20 in
any subject is placed upon this Christmas
tree order. The order has been pub
lished, and 1t was anxiously awaited by
each midshipman to learn whether his
name helped to trim the tree" this year.
The decrease in the number of middies
not quite up to the mark is generally be-
lieved to be due to the higher standard of
discipline that has been maintained among
the student body since the beginning of the
academic year in October. Superintendent
Sands recently issued an order compliment
tary of the discipline among the students
and stating that the standard of study
has been raised in consequence.

100000 to aid work of the Foreign Mis-

His is life story. sacrifice for the cause

prosperity first began to smile upon him.
So frugal has been the aged man that his
acquaintances have called him penurious.
When he made his first gift of 100000
to the cause of missionary work Bishop
McCabe asked him what he considered
would be a reasonable annuity for his wife's
living expenses. He replied that he thought
$500 would be plenty for them to live in
luxury. The bishop wouldn't hear this and
an annuity of 81 500 was given him.
Since that time he has been saving from
his annuity and not long ago made another
donation of $21. 600 to the missionary work

School and DR.. George J. Preston.
After the civil war and after Gen Lee had
been offered many positions of honor and
emolument the great leader felt that there
was no higher call to duty. and no greater
privilege for him than to spend the re-
mainder OF his life In endeavoring to tnf1u-
ence young men in mental, moral and splr-
itual development. So he became president
Of Washington College and hither fiocked
the youth Of the south. For four long years
they had been largely deprived of opportu-
mites for higher education, and even then
few colleges and universities In the south
were tn a position to open their doors,
closed by the ruthless hand Of war.
Five Years Of Good Service.
During the five years that Gen. Lee was
spared to preside over the institution and
impress his influence upon those committed
to his charge more than 900 students were
enrolled. His estimate of the Importance
Of that influence in just one direction can
be judged from the passage in his letter
of acceptance, written in August 1865. in
which he writes:
II think it is the duty of every citizen, in
the present condition of the country, to do
all in his power to aid in the restoration Of
peace and harmony. 1t is particularly in
cumbent on those charged with the instruc-
ton Of the young to set them an example
Of submission to authority" Such senti-
ments, impressed by such a man on nearly
thousand picked young men, gathered
have counted for much toward "the resto-
ration of peace and harmony which he
so earnestly sought.
Northerner to Be Orator.
The orator of the occasion will be Charles
Francis Adams, who was one of Gen. Lees
opponents in the conflict.
The family of the one is as closely iden-
titled with Massachusetts, as that of the
other with Virginia; the ancestors Of both
were prominent among the makers of our
country each was ready in 81 to offer his
life behalf of his own view of patriot
ism.
The program follows: January IS, pm,

Society; January 10, II am, address by

ALLEGED WOMAN JEKYLL-HYDE
Supposed Hatpin Slayer Said to Have
Dual Personality.

Dual Personality.
NEW YORK, December ia combina-
ton of morphine and whisky, it is alleged
by experts, transformed Catherine Neill into
female Jekyll-Hyde and Influenced her in
the killing of her husband Joseph, at
Greenwich Conn.,, last Friday night Ply
sicians who have observed her since her
arrest are convinced that she has at times
dual personality, and that when she says
she has no recollection of killing her hus-
band she speaks the truth.
| According to the surgeons who performed
| the autopsy, the death wound was inflicted
with hatpin, which was inserted at the
inner edge of the eye cavity, while the eye
| itself was pulled to one side. When it was
allowed to slip back to its normal position
| the wound did not show and only the pres-
| ence of blood revealed 1t to the investi-
gators. normal woman. experts say or a
woman committing murder in the heat of
anger or resentment. would neither plan nor
| execute such a diabolcal homicide
There is evidence to show that Catherine
Neill was addicted to the use of morphine
Mr. and Mrs. Herbert of New Rochelle,
with whom the Neills lived up to the time
| they moved to Greenwich, assert that she
| was given to the use of the drug. When
! she was arrested at her mothers home in
| this city and taken to Bellevue Hospital
she was plainly under the influence Of NOR
| phine. The inference drawn is that, actu-
ated by the drug, she imagined herself an
other person and carried out a plan she
| could not have conceived had her mind been
| healthy.
| Mrs. Neil still denies that she killed her
| husband, and her lawyer, Edward Green
| thai, will insist upon another autopsy. He
| says he will be able to show that Neill
| while crazy from alcoholic indulgence COM
| mitted suicide
+, THE alleged autopsy which was held"
| said Mr.. Greenthal, was farce l am
| satisfied Neills death was not caused by
| an instrument piercing his brain. At first
| 1t was said the weapon used was a hatpin,
| and then 1t was changed to nail file. The
| authorities do not yet know what caused
| the death, and 1 believe that if a chemical
| analysis of the stomach is made traces of
| poison will be found which the blacksmith
| took with suicidal intent
| The lawyer said that a maid employed in
! the hotel of Neill's brother-in-law. at New
| Rochelle, would testify that Neill on sew
| eral occasions had threatened to end his
| life, and that on Friday, few hours be-
| fore he departed for Greenwich with his
wife. he asked her to buy some poison for
him.
| The prosecution expects to find val
| liable witness In William Allen, proprietor
| of the Greenwich Hotel, who testified at
the preliminary inquest yesterday that
| Neill was sober when he came to the hotel
I and did not appear to have been drinking.
| His daughter corroborated this testimony.
