COLLEGE NOTES

The lecture 'tSour Grapes"
by Edward Amherst OFT was
enjoyed by all; we have not
heard u single adverse criti-
cism. The subject of heredity
was well handled. The entire
two hours were utilized in
disseminating knowledge, but
throughout all was u vein of
humor which commanded the
attention Of all To the truths
presented, which otherwise
would have been uninterest-
ing to the average mind.
Work on the boiler house is
progressing in Il manner more
perceptible now than for a
while past. The roof is about
completed ana the smokestack
is growing in a manner visible
TO all. The steam filters have

ranged and now when the
boilers come-which will be
when the ocean dries up-we
will have things in style.

Little Thomas Dunaway, the year
old son of the Rev. and Mrs. T.S.Dun-
away, pastor of the First Baptist
church, ON last Thursday found rail-
road torpedo along the track OF the
G. V. railroad, and, with the natural
curiosity Of boy, proceeded to investl-
gate the internal working of the dan
gerous piaything. He placed 1t on a
stone, and hammered on it, with
another. The result was startling to
the young philosopher. An explosion
followed and his right hand was Sc
verely cut, while his little sister, who
was standing near was struck, by a
Encouragement, on her right. leg be-
low the knee and suffered quite severe
cat. We are glad to state that their
injuries are not very serious, but the
probability is that they will beware of
railroad torpedoes in the future.

The Senate committee on Interstate

to 5, to repors the Hepburn rate bill to
the senate, without amendment. The
democrats held the key to the situation
and with the assistance Of three repub
LEANS, Dolliver, of Iowa, Cullom, OF
Illinois and Clapp, Of Minnesota
swamped the amendment in commit
tee There is great dissatisfaction among
the EIkins element, that Senator Till
man should have been designated to
take charge of the bill on the floor OF
the senate. Mr.. Elkins wanted to be
allowed to report the bill himself, but
this was vigorously objected to by Sen
ators Dolliver and Tillman, on the
ground that Mr.. Elkins did not sup
port the bill, and that it ought to be
reported by some one who did.

the West Virginia company, composed
chiefly of Martinsburg people. The
company has 100000 young trees at
the nursery at Point Pleasant, w. Va,
along the Ohio river, and preparations
are being made for an active campaign
for business among the fruit growers OF
Ohio and Pennsylvania. This COM
pany could only secure the two states
named as the Maryland company had
already taken the West Virginia terri
tory. Mr.. NJ. l.. Dorm will have the
management of the sales department,
and will leave in short time for an
extended tour of Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania. The company has established

make you irritable; you can't sleep.
you are unable to quietly and calmly
perform your daily tasks or care for
your children.
The relation of the nerves and gen.
eraeive organs in woman is so close
that nine tenths of the nervous pros
tration, nervous debility, the blues,
sleeplessness and nervous irritability
arise from some arrangement of the
organism which makes her a woman.
Fits of depression or restlessness and
irritability spirits easily affected, so
that one minute she laughs, the next
minute weeps; pain in the abdominal
region and between the shoulders /;
loss of voice; nervous dyspepsia; q
tendency to cry at the least provoca-
tion-all these point to nervous pres
tration.
Nothing will relieve this distressing
condition and prevent months of pros
tration and suffering so surely as Lydia
E. Pinkhsm's Vegetable Compound.
Mrs. M. e. shotwell, of 1Os Flatbush
Avenue, BROOKLYN, N. y, writes:
II cannot express the wonderful relief
have experienced by taking Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound. / suffered for
q long Time Win nervous prostraUlon, Dack-
ache, headache, loss of appetite. / could
not sleep and would walk the floor almost
every night.
81 had three doctors and got no better, and
life was burden. l was advised to try
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
and it has worked wonders for me.
81 am q well woman, my nervousness is all
gone and my friends say l look ten years
younger
VIII not the volumes of letters from
women made strong by Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound convince
all women of it's virtues? Surely you
cannot wish to remain sick, weak
and discouraged, exhausted each day,
when you can be as easily cured as
other women.
