$40 monthly which leaves net ren.

IN MEMORY OF JEFFERSON.
Ambassador Bryce the Principal
Speaker at Charlottesville, Va.

Charlottesville, Apr. 14.-The 165th
anniversary Of the birthday OF Thomas
Jefferson and the S9th anniversary Of
the foundation Of the university Of Vir-
ginia was celebrated at that institu.
ton Monday, the chief address being
delivered by the British Ambassador
James Bryce.
President Alderman, In introducing
the ambassador, referred to the fact
that Tarleton's soldiers chased the
general assembly Of Virginia from the
town Of Charlottesville and caused Mr..
Jefferson himself to leave Monticello
somewhat hastily. I'VE are very for
tunate today" said DR.. Alderman, I'm
having as our guest representative
of our great mother empire and Of
his majesty King Edward VII. TWEEN
ty five million people have come to
this country since the revolution from
all quarters Of the world, and very
few of them have been Englishmen.
1t is perhaps fairly accurate to say
that rural England and the southern
states are the most English parts OF
the world to-day. Still this republic
is an English land" Mr.. Bryce then
spoke.
President Alderman followed Mr..
Bryce with an interesting statement
concerning the life of the university
for the present year.
