Auburn. July 2s.-- (special Cores ponde1ce)--Auburn has come to be one of the most famous. rcrnaps the moet famous of all the technical schools of the South. Her fams is widespread because of the enainence of her faculty and the efficiency of her graduates.

The Alabama students came from sixty of the Alabama counties.
 Auburn, although one of the younger Southern colleges has a place among the highest ranking educational fnsti- tutions of the South. The sucsess she has aItained, her high standing, Is due to the faithfulness with which sha has maintained her ideals. the loyalty and perseverance with which she has kept In view the purposes of the founders. These purposes were in short the es- tablishment of school technical edu- ation where not only theory should be taught. but where theory should be applied to practice.
 For Technical Edueasion.
 Auburn came into being when the great modern Thought of education was beginning its advanee--ths thought that a technical education was quite as good as an aeademi education and more use- full. It is an expression of the mod sern idea that the man who does things, the man who leads and who develops the crude resources of a State or country, the man who paves the way for the advance of civilization. the nsa,. who controls the mighty nechanieal forces which carry the destiny of mod ern civilization is quite as good q man as the educated lawyer or the edn- cated doctor.
 < The world. too, has come to look with favor upon the doer of things the man who builds and develops. The youth trained for this life. the life Of activity of development and of man. agement of industrial affairs has a finer and greater chance than ever before. It might be said that modern thought puts a premium upon techni- cal education where in other years tho premium was upon academic education, ssf An Eminent Eaeuity.

In her thirty four years of useful- ness she has had such men at the head ps her faculty as l. T., Tlchenor, Will Ham LeRoy Browp and Charles Coleman Thach, all of whom have world wide fame as educators and all of whom builded we'll for Aubnrn's greatness.
 In the accomplishment of their tasks these men have had the assistance of eminent teachers and leaders. Repeated drafts have beer made unon Auburn's faculty by colleges and universities throughout the entire country. Invita- ton after invitation, in Auburn'r life. have been sent to the members of her faculty from larger and older col leges.
 No less distinguished have bsrn the graduates of Auburn. The thorcneh- ness of the Auburn training has wide reputation.

EAGLES IN BATTLE.
The Daring and Skill of These Fierce
Birds of Prey.

Ornithologists are inclined to dis
courage the idea that eagles are in the
habit of attacking large animals, but
a contest witnessed by an observer dis
pels such a theory. The battle was
between an eagle and q stag.
The bird singled out from herd one
particular buck, which 1t succeeded in
driving from the rest. 1t struck the
animal with it's powerful wings, knock
ed it down and finally killed it. A still
more remarkable SPECTACLE is well au-
thenticated. An eagle attacked a
fawn in the highlands of Scotland.
The cries of the little one were n
swered by it's dam, which sprang upon
the eagle and struck it repeatedly with
its forefeet Fawn, deer and eagle
rolled down a declivity, the bird was
dislodged from its hold and the ia wn
rescued
Many traditions are extant as to the
carrying off of children by eagles. The
most recent case bearing close scru-
tiny is one which happened in South
Africa. A Boer farmer whose stock
had been harried by eagles lay in am
bush for the robbers and saw one of
them descend and carry off the five
year-old child of one of the Kaffir serv-
ants. He shot the bird, which, with
the child still clutched in its grip. fell
into thorn bush. The bird was dead,
but the child was little hurt.
Two eagles will stalk a covert in
concert. While one conceals itself the
other beats about the bushes with
great screaming. driving out its quarry
for the hidden eagle TO swoop down
upon. An even more insidious method
has been observed. An eagle seeing a
sheep on the edge of a precipice few
at it, screaming shrilly and with force
full beat of wing hurled it into the val
ley below, where it could devour it a,
its leisure. In the light of such rec
ords there is good reason for believing
the legend of the eagle dropping a tor
toise on the bald head of IEschylus
the Greek poet. and SO causing his
death
