He Earned the HAT.


Barty billiard, who many years ago
lived In small town In northern Yer
mont, was noted for his careless vaga-
bond habits, ready wit and remarkable
facility for extempore rhyming. While
he was sitting one day In the village
store of what Is now a part Of Mont
pelier among group of idlers the gen.
ial merchant asked him why he wore
such shockingly bad hat. Barty re-
piled that he could not afford better
one.
''Come now" said the merchant,
make me rhyme on bad hat, and
will give you the best l have In my
store" Instantly Barty threw the old
one on the floor and began:
Here lies my old hat,
And pray what OF that?
It's as good as the rest of my raimentl
If buy me better
You'll make me your debtor
And send me to Jail for the payment.
The new hat was voted to be fairly
won, and Barty bore 1t off in triumph,
saying, ITS poor head that can't
take care of itself."-Boston Herald.

 Such a duty the Judge said. had come to- him and he had met it by the special charge given the grand jurors August 21, the charge in which Judge Jones instructed the jurors to investi- gate any violations of certain statutes, bearing on the railroad situation which at that time was regarded as string ent.
 In discharging the jurors the Fed eral jurist took occasion to note that enlightened public opinion in Alabama has needed the appeal for the supremacy of the law and he was xeiicitated that such happy results had been brought about.
 In submitting it's final report, the Federal grand jury thanked Judge Jones for his clear and comprehensive charge on the subject of obstructing Justice and disobedience to the process of the court, and the inquisitive body was glad that 1t could report no such violations. The jury had been in ses- sion since August 20. and forty-twO in- dictments were returned
 The report of the grand jury was read to the court by Foreman Thomas Howe as follows:

The V. p. 7. Presidency.

Editor of The Tlmes-Dlspatch:
Sir.-The matter OF election of the
president of the Virginia Polytechnic In
stitute will soon be In order. and 1t may
not be amiss to express the hope that the
selection may be made with great care.
The State Is spending large amount
in this institution. and 1t occupies a very
important place in its system for the
higher education of our boys. Its posi-
ton is unique in that it represents the
effort of the State to give technical train
ing along practical lines. The South Is
very far behind In this respect. and
nothing Is more needed than efficient
training that will enable Southern boys
to take the lead in the great Industrial
development that is now Just beginning
to take place. This but emphasizes the
Importance of getting the highest order
OF talent at the head of this institution.
The president should be man Of fine
executive ability, hut the mere man of
affairs Is not all that Is required. He
should be q man of broad grasp and
wide vision, who could give the institu-
ton standing and prestige in the educa-
tional world, and make 1t q potent force
In the direction of thought on questions
Involving the realization Of tho possibili-
ties Of the new South.
