ed by Rev. J. S. Dill. D. D.. of Bowling Green, Ky. Marion is always proud to do honor to her illustrious sons. Though not born in Marion, Dr. Dill spent most of his boyhood days here and is an honored graduate of the old Howard College. The subject chosen for his address was The Building of College" and the masterful way in which he treated it may be seen by reading the address, which is published in this issue of the Alabama Baptist. He commanded the interested attention of the large crowd of girls and boys, as well as of the members of old friends who were rejoicing in his presence, and with this ideal of great college before us and in view of the history of the Judson, we were pre- pared to join most heartily in singing the words
 Then let us one and all
 Answer the stirring call,
 Judson arise!
 Bring from anear and far
 Lives that all loyal are
 To make her the brightest star
 In college skies.
 FOunders' Day Prizes.
 The announcement of the successful contestants for the Founders Day Prizes was made and the hearty ap- plause of the girls manifested their approval of the decision and their gen. erous spirit These prizes were of- fered for the best historical essay or story on any period or incident of Jud- son life, and second, a Judson poem. Miss Mayo Provence of Tuskegee, Ala, was awarded first price under the first head and Miss Alma Stewart, Tusca- loosa, the second prize. Miss Bessie Riley of Monroe County, Ala, the prize for the best poem.
 Class Ceremonies.
 The commemoration ceremonies around the Confederate Oak, King Red wood and Sentinel Cedars, by the Ju- nior, Sophomore and Freshmen classes were beautiful and they impressed up- on the minds of these young girls the services which former Judson girls have rendered to their Alma Mater. To perpetuate their own memory the Se- niors of 1906 planted trees. The Lit erary Seniors planted a holly which, in honor of one of their own number they named the Ruby Holly; an elm was planted by the Seniors of the Music Department; and a red oak by the Elo- cutton Seniors. With characteristic thoughtfulness Mrs. J. B. Shivers, member of the Alumnae Association, sent some ivy to be planted This ivy Is from a root brought originally from Mount Vernon, the home of Washing ton. Thus are the thoughts of the great father of his country woven in the history of the Judson.

ORCHARD EXAMINATION.
Charged With Murder Of Governor
Steunenberg in Idaho.

Boise, Idaho.-The preliminary hear
ing of Harry Orchard, alias Thomas
Hogan, on the charge of numbering
Ex-Governor Frank Steunenberg at the
gate of his home the evening of De-
cember Both, was begun Saturday at
Caldwell before Probate Judge Church.
After examining eleven witnesses, the
court adjourned until Monday.
The first witness was G. F. Wayne,
who lives just across the street from
the Steunenberg residence. He had
done chores about the lattefplaee and
had just returned to his house when
the explosion occurred. II put out
lamps in his house and turned over
chairs.
He heard Mrs. Steunenberg calling
and went out being the first man TO
reach the victim. He told of asking
him questions, getting no answer and
of going for assistance, after which the
dying man was carried into the house.
Sheriff Edward Bell of Cripple Creek
was the first witness called in the after
noon. He identified the prisoner as 4
man who was wanted in his county on
suspicion of having had hand in the
blowing up of the station at Independ-
said that he had a warrant for Or
chard's arrest issued in his county, and
that eXtradition papers had been issued
for the return of the man to Colorado
in case he was not convicted of the
crime for which he was being held
here.
Deputy Sheriff w. r. Thompson Of
Cripple Creek substantiated the testi-
mony of Sheriff Bell concerning the
prisoner being the man suspected of
having something to do with the blow
ing up OF the independence station and
identified the prisoner as the man for
whom he had searched with a warrant
for a year and half.
Mrs. ] L. Martin testified that she
lives about three blocks from the
Steunenberg residence and that on sew
eral occasions during the last of Octo-
ber or the first of November she saw
Orchard pass her house going toward
the Steunenberg residence and that on
one or two occasions she saw him with
field glasses leveled toward the Steu-
nenberg house, which he was evidently
studying carefully.
The testimony of Bert Bramlett,
proprietor of the Commercial hotel at
Nampa, concerned Orchards presence
in Nampa the day before the murder.
Bramlett testified that Orchard left an
unusually heavy valise at his hotel dur
ing his stay in Nampa.
This valise was not in Orchards
room, as far as the officers have been
able to learn, when he returned to
Caldwell.

LACK OF TRANSPORTS.
General Staff Declare 1t to Be a Seri-
Gus Danger.

Washington.-A remarkable exposi.
tion of the fatal weakness of the army
transport resources in case of war is
contained in a paper prepared by the
general staff, transmitted by Secretary
Taft to Senator GallinCer, chairman of
the merchant marine commission in
charge Of the shipping bill now pend
ing before the Senate. In the course
OF its work in preparing in time of
peace for war, the general staff dis
covered that even the present limited
military force could not be transported
over the sea in case of war with a for
eign country or to defend our insular
possessions, unless there should be an
immedite and great increase in the
number of American steamships Suita-
Bile for transport service. 1t is pointed
out that foreign shipping could not be
drawn upon in time OF war; because of
the neutrality laws. so that under pres
ent conditions 'thc quick first blow, SO
very increasingly important, cannot be
struck at ALL"
The report frankly critices the San.
tiago expedition of 1898. Every Amer
lean vessel that could be obtained in
the Atlantic ports during the twenty
days following the declaration of war
was chartered, a fleet of thirty-siX yes
sells averaging $500 tons, only two of
them over 1000 tons. The official
records afford ample evidence that the
safe arrival was due to the good for
tune of continued fine weather"
The report declares that no such
fleet as would be needed for an over
seas expedition could be furnished out
of the present resources of the Amer
lean merchant marine.
''In short, to strike the quick blow
of force corresponding to our perma-
nent military establishment would re-
quire practically all the American
shipping Of suitable character in At
lantic waters and more than the en-
tire tonnage in Pacific waters. There
needs no argument to show that this
transport service could not be pro-
cured in fifteen days. 1t is doubtful
whether 1t could be prepared at all,
except by impressment and in a pc.
riod of six months or more"
