Thompson prize for the best legal thesis
from among the members of the gradual
ing class, and also the T. and J. w John
son prize for the best legal thesis from
among the members Of the third and
fourth year classes combined. Very in
frequently has it happened that these i'm
portant prizes have been awarded to the
same student, and the fact that Mr.
Kennedy received both, denotes the rare
excellence of his work
Mr. Kennedy's whole career as a stu
dent has been a brilliant one He was
born in ScOttdale, Pa, and received his
early training at St Johns School, of that
place. In 1899 he entered ST. Vincents
College. at Beatty. Pa, and while there,
received the prizes in mathematics, chem
istry, oratory, and English. He was also
editor Of ST. Yincents Journal. the col
lege publication. He did not complete his
undergraduate course at St. vlneents. but
in 1903 came to Washington, and registered
as a student in the school of philosophy
at the Catholic University Of America In
June. 1905, this Institution conferred upon
him the degree Of bachelor Of arts, and in
June, 1895, he received the degree of bach
elor of laws from Georgetown University.
Mr.. Kennedy has been n" of the
Georgetown University Chapter of Delta
Chi Fraternity. He was recently elected
vice president Of St vincents College
Alumni Association. In June, 1907, he re-
ceived the degree Of master Of arts from

A sale of considerable interest to lovers

sale recalls the story of Dickens oliver

and Bill Skies to entangle it's hero in the
meshes of a criminal career.
The house ever since the publication Of
the novel has been identified with that Of
Mrs Maybe, where, after the walk from
Bethnal Green and the meeting in the de-
serted house by the river bank, Toby
Crackit and Bill Skies forced an entrance
through a window at the back, which still
remains. Through this window the trem-

In the grounds the boy" Brittles and

VALIANT LECTURE ON THE
WORLDS IMPENDING FATE

'.Is the world coming to an end?' que
ried Capt Theodore Valiant, evangelist. at
the beginning of his Friday evening lee
ture before a large audience at the Home
ward Bound Mission. 119 Pennsylvania
avenue The service was opened by sing
ing Rescue the Perishing," and then Capt.
Valiant delved this talk on Modern Sod
oms and Gomorrahs.' He said:
els the world coming to an end? This
query is suggested by many happenings
of the present times. You will find in the
book of St. Matthew. from the beginning
to the end, continuation of admonitions
or warnings which in these latter days
have given verification to the good booK
and seem to indicate that the end Is not
far distant. You will also find In ST.
Matthew an appeal to watch and pray, Tor
We know not at what hour the Son Of God
cometh.'
-.aThese verses in ST. Matthew also speak
of famine, earthquakes, war and rumors
Of wars, and that all things shall change,
even the seasons. We have had the earth
auakes-the peaceful St. Pierre destroyed
by the violence Of Mont Pelee and san
Francisco shaken I'D and tumbled down In
an awful mass, accompanied by hola-
caust of fire. We have had the wars, De-
ginning with our campaign against naughty
Spain and her humbling in the dust with the
loss of her colonies; the Boer war In Al
RIGA, with its great loss Of life, and the
terrible carnage of the war in the orient
between Japan and Russia. There are ru,
mors of wars to come even now. Awfui
famine is stalking through China, as 1t re-
Gently did through India, and thousands
of human beings are starving to death.
and the seasons shall change. Surely
the records of the United States weathef
hmraam show that our climate has shifted
most wonderfully Even now, at the be-
ginning Of summer. we are experiencing
cool spring weather. and We have had hall
and frost instead of the former seasonal
warm spring showers and balmy condi-
